Your Universal Usage Commitment may be further allocated between Specified Commitment(s), as detailed in your Order.
                                                                                                                                                                                                          • “Specified Commitment” means the commitment you make in your Order for the use of a specific value of Databricks Platform Services and/or Databricks Powered Service (e.g. Azure Databricks) on the specific stated platform(s), including one or more of the following, as detailed in your Order:
                                                                                                                                                                                                            • AWS Direct Commit

                                                                                                                                                                                                          • If your Order includes a “Flexible Commit”, it means your commitment for the use of an additional stated value of Databricks on any of the platforms for which you have an Original Specified Commitment. A Flexible Commit is a type of Specified Commitment that is incremental to the Original Specified Commitment(s), and can be consumed by usage on any of the Original Specified Commitment platforms. Note that usage on a particular platform will only consume the Flexible Commit after the full consumption of your Original Specified Commitment with respect to such platform.

                                                                                                                                                                                                            Example - Assume an Order includes (1) a Specified Commitment value for Databricks on AWS, (2) a Specified Commitment value for Databricks on GCP, and (3) a Flexible Commit value. If the AWS Specified Commitment is fully consumed, additional usage of Databricks on AWS during the Term will then apply to the Flexible Commit (until it is exhausted). A similar calculation applies if/when the usage of Databricks on GCP during the Term exceeds the GCP Specified Commitment. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                          How is the usage commitment satisfied?

How the UUC may be satisfied varies by platform, as described below:

                                                                                                                                                                                                          • Platform Services – Databricks on AWS/GCP and SAP Databricks.

The term “Burst Usage” refers to the use of additional Databricks on AWS or Databricks on GCP after the consumption of the Specified Commitment(s) in your Order applicable towards such platform(s). Burst Usage is invoiced monthly in arrears.
                                                                                                                                                                                                            • The use of additional SAP Databricks and Azure Databricks after the consumption of the Specified Commitment(s) in your Order applicable towards such platform(s) will continue to be billed in accordance with the terms of your Order.

If your Order includes Multicloud Support or Single-Cloud Support, and the fees you owe for such services (based on Support-Eligible Fees and as set forth in your Order) are greater than your scheduled payment(s) for such services, you will be billed monthly in arrears for the difference. “Support-Eligible Fees” means your total fees during the Term for usage pursuant to your Order of Databricks on AWS, Databricks on GCP, and Azure Databricks (as applicable).

                                                                                                                                                                                                          What happens if the usage commitment stated in your Order is not satisfied?

                                                                                                                                                                                                          You may owe Databricks a “True-up Payment”, i.e. an amount equal to any value of your Universal Usage Commitment which remains unpaid (under the terms of your Order) at the end of your Order’s Term. If you pre-purchase Platform Services or Databricks Powered Services, only the portions of your pre-purchase that are used (or which expire unused) during the Term of the Order count as payment your Specified Commitment.
