Service; provided, however, that the Company shall make reasonable efforts to give the Customer
prompt advance notice of any such suspension where possible. Upon non-payment of any sum
owing to the Company for more than 30 days beyond the date of invoice for Service or upon
violation of any of the terms or conditions governing the furnishing of Service under this Tariff, the
Company may, by 24 hours advance notice to the Customer in the case of post-paid services or

shall be responsible for the payment of any Charges, including reconnection charges or other costs
associated with the suspension and restoration of Service.
Termination by the Company
In accordance with the Idaho Public Utilities Commission Customer Relations Rules, the Company

is not in compliance with any provision ofthis Tariff; (c) when the Company has reason to believe
that the Customer provided false or misleading information to the Company in connection with a
Service Order; (d) when the Company has reason to believe that the Customer has used or has
attempted to use the Service for an illegal, immoral or unlawful purpose; or (e) following the
initiation by or against the Customer of a proceeding in bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency,
receivership or assignment for the benefit of creditors. Termination for cause does not relieve the
Customer of any obligation to pay Charges that have accrued for Service provided under this Tariff.
