Symantec Subscription & Services Overview
The Subscription & Services model offers organizations streamlined procurement of
Symantec software and services, and a flexible way to purchase subscription-based
licenses or other usage rights that are bundled with Maintenance to help reduce the
total cost of software use.
The Subscription & Services model also allows for the flexibility to build your own
bundle components to customize to your specific environment. When building your own
bundle, you decide what options you need.
The Subscription & Services model includes Symantec products and services, including
but not limited to, software products, consulting, education and other training services,
customer success and managed security services which can be offered in a
subscription model. Please consult a Symantec reseller partner, or Symantec Sales
account manager for more information on available S&S Offerings.
All S&S Offerings include Maintenance so that important upgrades and technical
assistance will be available to you at no additional charge.
The Subscription & Services model uses the total value of the Order to determine the
discount eligibility of each Order and subsequent Orders, with higher values receiving
higher discount eligibility. As Orders are placed, the Customer can receive a higher
discount for subsequent Orders, including true-up Orders. The available discount may
be reduced if the total value of the commitment is reduced.
Enrollment Requirements
Signed Symantec Subscription & Services Agreement (“SSA”). The signed
SSA should be sent to the Symantec sales representative, based on the
Territory.
Initial Order of 250 Users or higher for Threat Protection or Information
Protection products that are licensed on a per User Meter; or
In the event that no S&S Offerings metered on a per User basis are being
purchased, then a minimum initial Order of USD $50,000.00 or higher.

& Services Handbook
Orders
The initial Order may be submitted once the Customer has received the Welcome Letter
with their SSA Symantec Agreement Number (“SAN” or “Master SAN”. The Initial Order
must have a Subscription Period of no less than 12 months.
Following the initial Order, a Customer may continue to order any S&S Offering without
regard to order size. If you have over deployed any S&S Offering, you must place an
Order each quarter for the over deployed use level, so that subsequent invoices reflect
Actual Use Level. From time to time, a Symantec sales representative or Customer
Success Manager will review your use level with you.
True-Down Process
Customers who have purchased an applicable S&S Offering for a minimum of 36
months are eligible for a True-Down benefit for that offering as follows:
During the Subscription Period for the eligible Order, the Customer has a ten percent
(10%) unit allowance to decrease the commitment if the original Order Use Level is no
longer needed by the Customer. The reduction will apply on a go-forward basis to future
annual billings only and no portion of a previously billed Subscription Period will be
refunded. The Customer must complete a True-Down Worksheet and send to the
Symantec sales representative or Customer Success Manager at least 30 days in
advance of the billing anniversary in order for the adjustment to be made.
Ordering; Reseller Partners
Orders placed under the SSA are submitted directly to Symantec. In the event that a
Customer wishes to place their Order through a Channel Partner, the customer should
notify their Symantec sales representative.
A Customer may choose to place its Orders through any Symantec Channel Partner in
its ordering Territory. Certain restrictions may apply where Symantec solutions require
that a Channel Partner hold certain certifications or authorization levels to resell a given
solution. Please consult your Channel Partner for more information on whether they are
authorized to sell certain S&S Offerings.
Symantec provides pricing for each Order based on the Customer’s then-current
discount level. Symantec does not and cannot, however, set the Channel Partner’s
price to the Customer. Customers who are enrolled in the S&S model must provide their
SAN to their chosen Channel Partner in order to receive quotes for S&S Offerings.

Affiliate Purchasing
The model allows Affiliates within the Territory to place Orders under the Customer’s
SAN. Affiliate Orders are applied towards Customer’s discount eligibility for the original-
named Customer and all participating Affiliates. Customers and eligible Affiliates must
provide their applicable SAN with every order.
Alternatively, Affiliates may elect to sign an Affiliate SSA and establish their own SAN
(an “Affiliate SAN”). The Subscription Period(s) for an Affiliate will be based on the
dates identified in the Affiliate SSA.
Affiliates located outside of Customer’s Territory and where the Subscription & Services
purchase model is available may also execute an Affiliate SSA.
Territory
Customers have a Territory for ordering, installation, and use of the S&S Offerings
purchased under their SAN. The Customer’s Territory is established by the contract
address to which their SAN is registered during enrollment. Any change to the contract
address, will result in a change to the Territory of the SSA. The territory for installation
and use may also change accordingly (see below).
Territory - Ordering
The default ordering territory is the country in which the Customer’s SAN contract
address is located. This is the Territory in which the Customer can place orders.
Territory – Installation and use
For most Customers, the country of their ordering territory is also the territory in which
they install and use the S&S Offerings.
Example: If the Customer’s ordering territory is Canada, they may install and use their
Symantec solutions only in Canada.
In some cases, a customer’s territory for installation and use may be broader than its
ordering territory.
Example: If the Customers ordering in Switzerland they may install and use their S&S
Offerings anywhere in EMEA (Europe, Middle East, or Africa).

SAN, please refer to the then-current Deployment Territory Matrix.

is integrated into the S&S Offerings. More information can be found at the following web
