subject to presubscription and the Company for interLATA toll calls subject to
presubscription.

interLA T A toll calls subject to presubscription
Option E: Customer may select two different carriers, neither being the Company for
intraLATA and interLATA toll calls. One carrier to be the Customers' primary intraLATA
interexchange carrier. The other carrier to be the Customer s primary interLA T A
interexchange carrier.

Allowances for Interruptions in Service
20.General
Upon the written request of the Customer, delivered to the Company no later than
thirty (30) days following the date of service interruption a credit allowance will be
given when service is interrupted, except as specified in Section 2.20.2 following. A
service is interrupted when it becomes inoperative to the Customer, e., the
Customer is unable to transmit or receive, because of a failure of a component
furnished by the Company under this tariff.
An interruption period begins when the Customer reports to the Company a service
facility or circuit is inoperative and, if necessary, releases it for testing and repair by
the Company, as determined in its sole and reasonable discretion. An interruption
period ends when the service, facility or circuit is operative.
If the Customer reports a service, facility or circuit to be interrupted but declines to
release it for testing and repair, refuses access to its premise for test and repair by the
Company, or continues to make voluntary use of the service, the service, facility or
circuit is considered to be impaired but not interrupted. No credit allowances will be
made for a service, facility or circuit considered by the Company to be impaired.
The Customer shall be responsible for the payment of service charges for visits by the
Company s agents or employees to the premises of the Customer when the service
difficulty or trouble report results from the use of equipment or facilities provided by
any party other than the Company, including but not limited to the Customer.

Except as provided in Section 2.10.2 A., if a Customer s service is interrupted, and it
remains interrupted for eight normal working hours or longer after access to the
premises is made available and after being reported to be out of order, appropriate
adjustments or refunds shall be made to the Customer, when such adjustment exceeds
$1.00.
The amount of adjustment or refund shall be determined on the basis of the known
period of interruption, generally beginning from the time the service interruption is
first reported. The refund to the Customer shall be a pro rata part of the month's flat
rate charges (if any) for the period of days and that portion of the service facilities
rendered useless or inoperative. The refund may be accomplished by a credit on a
subsequent bill for the service.
For purposes of credit computation every month shall be considered to have seven
hundred and twenty (720) hours. For services with a monthly recurring charge, no
credit shall be allowed for an interruption of continuous duration of less than eight
(8) hours. The Customer shall be credited for an interruption of eight (8) or more
hours at the rate of 1/720th of the monthly charge for the services affected for each
day that the interruption continues. The formula used for computation of credits is as
follows:
Credit = A/720 x B
A = outage time in hours (must be 8 or more)
B = total monthly recurring charge for affected service.
No credits will be provided for usage sensitive services.

services shall constitute a Constructive Order and an agreement by the Customer to
purchase the Company s switched access services as described and priced herein.
Direct Connect Access: The Company will provide facilities between the Customer
premises and a Company End Office. This transmission path is dedicated to the use
of a single Customer. The Company requires the Customer to submit an ASR or

for installation of service, installation of optional features and service rearrangements.
Recurring Charges are flat monthly rates that apply for each month or fraction thereof
that a specific rate element is provided. For billing purposes, each month is
considered to have 30 days.

are applied on a per-access minute, a per-call or per-query basis. Usage rates are
accumulated over a monthly period.

SECTION 3 - SWITCHED ACCESS SERVICE, (CONT'
Rate Regulations (Continued)
Measurement of Access Minutes
When recording originating calls over FG Access with multi-frequency address
signaling, usage measurement begins when the first wink supervisory signal is
forwarded from the Customer s facilities. The measurement of originating call usage
over FG Access ends when the originating FG Access entry switch receives
disconnect supervision from either the originating End User s End Office (indicating
that the originating End User has disconnected), or from the Customer s facilities
whichever is recognized first by the entry switch.
For terminating calls over FG Access with multi-frequency address signaling, the
measurement of access minutes begins when a seizure signal is received from the
Carrier s trunk group at the Point of Presence within the LATA. The measurement of
terminating call usage over FG Access ends when a disconnect signal is received
indicating that either the originating or terminating user has disconnected.
When recording originating calls over FG Access with SS7 signaling, usage
measurement begins with the transmission of the initial address message by the
switch for direct trunk groups and with the receipt of an exit message by the switch
for tandem trunk groups. The measurement of originating FG Access usage ends
when the entry switch receives or sends a release message, whichever occurs first.
F or terminating calls over FG Access with SS 7 signaling, the measurement of access
minutes begins when the terminating recording switch receives the initial address
message from the terminating End User. On directly routed trunk groups or on
tandem routed trunk groups, the Company switch receives the initial address message
and sends the indication to the Customer in the form of an answer message. The
measurement of terminating FG Access call usage ends when the entry switch
receives or sends a release message, whichever occurs first.
Mileage, where applicable, will be measured in accordance with standard industry
practices.

Moves
A move of services involves a change in the physical location of one of the
following:
(a)
(b)
The point of termination at the Customer s Premises, or
The Customer s Premises
The charges for the move are dependent on whether the move is to a new location
within the same building or to a different building as described below:
(a)Moves Within the Same Building
When the move is to a new location within the same building, the charge for
the move will be an amount equal to one half of the nonrecurring charge for
the capacity affected. There will be no change in the minimum period
requirements.
(b)Moves to a Different Building
Moves to a different building will be treated as a discontinuance and start of
service and all associated nonrecurring charges will apply. New minimum
period requirements will be established for the new service. The Customer
will also remain responsible for satisfying all outstanding minimum period
charges for the discontinued service.

Rate Regulations (Continued)
Installation of Optional Features
If a separate nonrecurring charge applies for the installation of an optional feature
available with Switched Access Service, the charge applies whether the feature is
installed coincident with the initial installation of service or at any time subsequent to
the initial installation of service.
For all other changes, including the addition of, or modifications to, optional featureswithout separate nomecurring charges, a charge equal to one half the Switched
Transport nonrecurring (i.e. installation) charge will apply. When an optional feature
is not required on each transmission path, but rather for an entire transmission path
group, an end office or an access tandem switch, only one such charge will apply.
Service Rearrangements
Service rearrangements are changes to existing services which do not result in either
a change in the minimum period requirements or a change in the physical location of
the point of termination at the Customer s premises or the Customer s End User
premises. Changes which result in the establishment of new minimum period
obligations are treated as disconnects and starts.
The charge to the Customer for the service rearrangement is dependent on whether
the change is administrative only in nature or involves an actual physical change to
the service.
Administrative changes will be made without charge(s) to the Customer. Such
changes require the continued provision and billing of the Access Service to the same
entity or change in jurisdiction.

Customer as specified in each individual contract.
