the retail public, an Escrow Account or Security Bond is not needed. Local
Access does in some cases require its wholesale customers to have a deposit
on file, but that is decision is made on a case by case basis based off the credit
worthiness of the customer, but requiring a deposit is not a general practice
that Local Access engages in.

minutes from 100 (100 - projected interstate percentage : intrastate
percentage) as the projected intrastate percentage ofuse.
2.3.3.2For purpose of developing the projected interstate percentage, the
Customer shall consider every call that enters the Customer's network at a
point within the same state as the state where the called station is located
to be intrastate and every call that enters the Customer's network at a point
in a state different from the state in which the called station is located to
be interstate.
2.3.3.3These whole number percentages will be used by the Company to
apportion the use, rates, and/or nonrecurring charges between interstate
and intrastate until a revised report is received.

forth in Section 5 following.
2.3.3.4 Effective on the first of January, April, July, and October of each year, the
Customer may update the jurisdictional reports that require a projected

a revised report showing the interstate percentage of use for the past three
months ending the last day of December, March, June and September,
respectively, for each service arranged for interstate and intrastate use.
Except as set forth in Section 2.3.3 (A) preceding where jurisdiction can
be determined from the recorded message detail, the revised report will
serve as the basis for the next three months billing and will be effective on
the bill date in the following month for that service. No prorating or back
billing will be done based on the report. If the Customer does not supply
the report, the Company will assume the percentage to be the same as that
provided in the last quarterly report. For those cases in which a quarterly
report has never been received from the Customer, the Company will
assume the percentage to be the same as that provided in the order for

REGULATIONS
Application of Rates
The regulations set forth in this section govern the application of rates for services
contained in other sections of this tariff.
2.8.1 Charges Based on Duration of Use
Customer traffic to end offrces will be measured by the Company at end office
switches. Originating and terminating calls will be measured by the Company to
determine the basis for computing chargeable access minutes.
For originating calls over Feature Group D, usage measurement begins when the
originating Feature Group D switch receives the first wink supervisory signal
forwarded from the Customer's point of termination.
The measurement of originating call usage ends when the originating Feature
Group D switch receives disconnect supervision from either the originating end
user's end office, indicating the originating end user has disconnected, or the
Customer's point of termination, whichever is recognized first by the switch.
For terminating calls over Feature Group D, the measurement of access minutes
begins when the terminating Feature Group D switch receives the set up message
to initiate the call set up.
The measurement of terminating call usage over Feature Group D ends when the
terminating Feature Group D switch receives disconnect supervision from either
the terminating end user's end office, indicating the terminating end user has
disconnected, or the Customer's point of termination, whichever is recognized
first by the switch.
Access minutes or fractions thereof are accumulated over the billing period for
each end office and are then rounded up to the nearest access minute for each end
office.

Application of Rates (cont'd)
2.8.2 Rates Based Upon Distance
Where the charges for service are specified based upon distance, the following rules
apply:
2.8.2.2 Distance between two points is measured as airline distance between the
wire centers of the originating and terminating telephone lines. The wire
center is a set of geographic coordinates associated with each NPA-NXX
combination (where NPA is the area code and NXX is the first three digits
of a seven-digit telephone number).
2.8.2.3 The airline distance between any two wire centers is determined as
follows:
2.8.2.3.1 Obtain the "V" and "H" coordinates for each wire center.
2.8.2.3.2 Compute the difference between the "V" coordinates of the
two wire centers; and the difference between the two "H"
coordinates.
2.8.2.3.3 Square each difference obtained in Step (2) above.
2.8.2.3.4 Add the square of the "V" difference and the square of the
"H" difference obtained in step (3).
2.8.2.3.5 Divide the sum of the squares by 10. Round to the next
higher whole number if any fraction is obtained.
2.8.2.3.6 Obtain the square root of the whole number result obtained
above. Round to the next higher whole number if any
fraction is obtained. This is the airline mileage.

Application of Rates
2.8.3 Mileage
The mileage to be used to determine the Local Transport Facility monthly
rates are calculated on the airline distance between the end office switch
where the call carried by Local Transport originates or terminates and the
customer's serving wire center. The V&H coordinates method is used to
determine mileage. This method is set forth in Section 2.8.2.
The Local Transport Facility mileage rates are shown in Section 5.1.3 in
terms of per mile per access minute. To determine the rate to be billed, first
compute the mileage. Should the calculation result in a fraction of a mile,
the result will be rounded up to the next whole mile. Then multiply the
mileage by the appropriate Local Transport Facility rate. The amount to be
billed shall be the product of this calculation (i.e., the number of miles
multiplied by the per mile rate) multiplied by the number of access
minutes.
Individual Case Basis (ICB)
Arrangements will be developed on a case-by-case basis in answer to a
bona fide request from a Customer or prospective Customer to develop a
competitive bid for a service offered under this tariff. Rates quoted in
response to such competitive requests may be different than those specified
for such service in this tariff. ICB rates will be offered to the Customer in
writing.
Contracts will be used in the circumstance of ICB service offerings. The
terms and conditions of each contract offering are subject to the agreement
of both the Customer and Company. Such contract offerings will be made
available to similarly situated Customers in substantially comparable
circumstances. Contracts are obtainable to any similarly situated Customer
that places an order within 90 days of their effective date. [n the event of a
conflict between the Customer and the Company, the contract will take
precedence over this tariff in regards to resolution of the conflict. Contracts
are subject to applicable law of a competent jurisdiction.

2.10 Identification and rating of VOIP Traffic
2.10.1 General
2.l0.l.lVOIP traffic is defined as traffic that is exchanged between a Company
end user and the customer in time division multiplexing (TDM) format
that originates and/or terminates in Intemet protocol (IP) format. These
rules establish the method of separating such traffic from the customer's
traditional intrastate access traffic, so that such relevant VOIP traffic can
be billed in accordance with the FCC Order (see Report and Order in WC
Docket Nos. l0-90, etc. FCC Release No. I l- l6l (November 18. 201l)).
2.l0.l.2This section will be applied to the billing of switched access charges to a
customer that is a local exchange carrier only to the extent that the
customer has also implemented billing of switched access charges for
relevant VOIP tariff in accordance with the FCC Order.
2.10.1.3 The rates, terms, and conditions of this section will apply to transit
services provided in connection with the origination or termination of
LEC-CMRS intraMTA traffic.
2.10.2 Rating of VOIP Traffic
The relevant VOIP traffic that is identified in accordance with this tariff section
will be billed at rates equal to the Company's applicable tariffed intrastate access
rates as specified in Section 5 in accordance with the FCC Order in WC Docket
Nos. 10-90, etc., DA Release No. 12-147 (February 3,2012).
2.10.3 Calculation and Application of Percent VOIP Usage Factor
The Company will determine the number of relevant VOIP traffic minutes of use
(MOU) to which the intrastate rates will be applied under 2.10.1.2 above, by
applying a percent VOIP usage (PVU) factor to the total intrastate access MOU
exchanged between a Company end user and the customer. The PVU will be
determined and applied as follows:

2.10.3 Calculation and Application of Percent VOP Usage Factor (cont'd)
2.10.3.1The customer will calculate and furnish to the Company a factor (customer
factor) representing the percentage ofthe total intrastate and interstate access
MOU that the customer exchanges with the Company in the state, that (a) is sent
to the Company and that originated in IP format; or (b) is received from the
Company and terminated in IP format. This customer factor shall be based on
information such as traffic studies, call details, the number of the customer's
retail VOIP subscriptions in the state (as reported in FCC Form 477) or other
relevant and verifi able information.
2.10.3.zThe Company will also calculate a factor (Company factor) representing the
percentage of the Company's total intrastate and interstate access MOU in the
state that the Company originates or terminates on its network in IP format. This
Company factor shall be based on information such as traffic studies, call details,
the number of the customer's retail VOIP subscriptions in the state (as reported
in FCC Form 477) or other relevant and verifiable information.
2.lD.3.3The Company will use the Company factor and the customer factor to calculate a
PVU factor that represent the percentage of total intrastate and interstate access
MOU exchanged between a Company end user and the customer that is
originated or terminated in IP format, whether at the Company's end, at the
customer's end or at both ends. The PVU factor will be calculated as the sum of:
(A) the customer factor and (B) the Company factor times (1.0 minus the
customer factor).
2.10.3.4The Company will apply the PVU factor to the total intrastate access MOU
exchanged with the customer to determine the number of relevant VOIP traffic
MOUs.
Example l: The Company factor is at20oh and the customer factor is 40%. The
PVU factor is equal to 4oo/o + (2oo/o x 60%): 52Yo.The Company will bill 52%
of the customer's intrastate access MOU at the Company's applicable tariffed
intrastate access rates.

designate to the Company an interexchange carrier (lC) to access,
without an access code, for intrastate interLATA calls and interstate
interLATA calls subject to the Company's FCC Access Services Tariff.
This IC is referred to as the end user's Primary Interexchange Carrier
(PIC). The end user may select as its PIC the Company, or any other IC
that orders originating Feature Group D Switched Access Service at the
end office that serves the end user. After the end user's initial selection
of a pre-designated IC, for any additional change in selection, a
nonrecurring charge, as set forth in Section 5.2.1, applies.
3.2.1.2 At the request of a new or existing end user served by a Feature Group
D end office, the Company will provide a list of ICs the end user may
select as its PIC. At no additional charge for the initial selection, the
customer may choose either of the following options.
- Designate an IC as a PIC and dial I0XXX or 101XXXX to reach
other ICs.
- Designate that they do not want to be presubscribed to any [C and
choose to dial I0XXX or l0lXXXX for all calls to all ICs.
New end users subscribing to the Company's Local Exchange Service
which do not specify a PIC will default to the Company as their initial
PIC selection. Subsequent to the installation of Local Exchange
Service, and after the end user's initial selection of a PIC, for any
additional change in selection, a nonrecurring charge as set forth in

3.2.3 Local Number Portability (LNP) Querry Service
LNP Query Service is a capability that utilizes Advanced lntelligent Network
(AIN) technology to query a data base to secure network routing instructions
before completion of a call. The database contains information about end users
which have ported their service from the donor switch. At a minimum, the
database contains the Location Routing Number (LRN) which identifies the
Local Service Provider's (LSP) switch serving each ported end user. The LRN is
used to direct the call to the correct switch for completion to the end user. Where
more than one network is involved in completing the call, the network just before
the terminating network (i.e., the N-l Network) is responsible for querying a
LNP data base to secure the LRN. The rates and charges associated with LNP
Query Services are "query" based and will be billed on a monthly basis, based on
recorded usage. Query charges will be applied by the Telephone Company based
upon the recordings ofcarrier queries to the database. Ifsuch recordings are not
available, the Telephone Company will develop monthly charges based on an
average number of queries per month.
