determination by the Commission that the limitation of liability imposed by the
Company should be upheld in a court of law. Approval by the Commission merely
recognizes that since it is a court's responsibility to adjudicate negligence and
consequent damage claims, it is also the court s responsibility to determine the
validity of the exculpatory clause.

Allowances for InterruPtions in Service
Credit for Interruptions
When the use of service or facilities furnished by the Company is interrupted due to any cause
other than the negligence or willful act of the Customer, or the operation or failure of the facilities
or equipment provided by the Customer; subject to ID PUC Rule 503, a pro rata adjustment of the
monthly recurring charges subject to interruption will be allowed for the service and facilities
rendered useless and inoperative by reason of the interruption, whenever said interruption
continues for a period of 24 hours or more from the time the interruption is reported to or known
to exist by the Company. If the Customer reports a service, facility or circuit to be inoperative but
declines to release it for testing and repair, it is considered to be impaired, but not interrupted.
For calculating credit allowances, every month is considered to have 30 days. A credit allowance
is applied on pro-rata basis against the rates specified hereunder for Local Line or Local Trunk
Service and is dependent upon the length of the interruption. Only those facilities on the
interrupted portion of the circuit will receive a credit. Credit allowances for service outages that
exceed 24 hours in duration will be rounded up to the next whole 24 hours. If the Company does
not restore service within the times required by Rule 503, the Company will credit the Customer
account for an amount equal to the monthly rate for one month of basic local exchange service.
Limitations on Allowances No credit allowance will be made for:
(a) interruptions due to the negligence of, or noncompliance with the provisions of this tariff by,
the Customer, Authorized User, Joint-User, or to any interexchange carrier providing service
connected by the Customer to the service of Company;
(b) interruptions due to the negligence of any person other than the Company including, but not
limited to, the Customer or to any interexchange carriers connected by the Customer to the
Company s facilities;
(c) interruptions of service during a period in which the Customer continues to use the service on
an impaired basis;
(d) interruptions of service during any period when the Customer has released service to the
Company for maintenance purposes or for implementation of a Customer order for a change
service arrangements;
