When charges for calls are mileage sensitive, airline mileage is computed as described below. Calls are measured and rounded to the higher full minute from the serving wire center of the Customer's originating location to the serving wire center of the destination of the call, regardless of Company routing. The distance between the serving wire center origination point and that of the destination point is calculated by using the “V” and “H” coordinates as defined by Bell Communications Research (BellCore) and NECA Tariff FCC No. 4 in the following manner: Step 1 Obtain the “V” and “H” coordinates for the originating and terminating wire centers. Step 2 Obtain the difference between the “V” coordinates of each of the serving wire centers. Obtain the difference between the “H” coordinates. Step 3 Square the differences obtained in Step 2. Step 4 Add the squares of the “V” difference and “H” difference obtained in Step 3. Step 5 Divide the sum of the squares obtained in Step 4 by ten (10). Round to the next higher whole number, if any fraction results. Step 6 Obtain the square root of the whole number obtained in Step 5. Round to the next higher whole number, if any fraction is obtained. This is the airline mileage of the call.

Network Exchange Bundled Service may include the calling features listed below: These features are offered subject to availability of suitable facilities. Certain features may not be available with all classes of services. In the event Trinsic adds custom calling features to its Network Exchange Bundled Services, such features will be available upon the tariff effective date (where technically feasible) to all new Customers. Existing Customers will be informed of the new features availability but must contact the Company to obtain the new features. Any Service Order Charges, which would normally apply, will be waived. Call Forwarding - Fixed, Busy Line No Answer - This feature, when activated, redirects attempted terminating calls to another Customer- specified line. Call originating ability is not affected by Call Forwarding - Fixed, Busy Line No Answer. The calling party is billed for the call to the called number. If the forwarded leg of the call is chargeable, the Customer with the Call Forwarding - Fixed, Busy Line No Answer is billed for the forwarded leg of the call. Calls cannot be transferred to an International Direct Distance Dialing number. Caller ID with Name - allows a Customer to see a caller's name and number previewed on a display screen before the call is answered allowing a Customer to prioritize and or screen incoming calls. Caller ID records the name, number, date and time of each incoming call - including calls that aren't answered by the Customer. Caller ID service requires the use of specialized CPE not provided by the company. It is the responsibility of the Customer to provide the necessary CPE. In areas where Caller ID with Name is not available, Caller ID, which only displays the incoming telephone number, will be substituted.

Network Exchange Bundled Service may include the calling features listed below, (cont'd.): Call Forwarding - Variable - a Customer activated feature that automatically transfers all incoming calls from the Customer's telephone number to another dialable telephone number until the Customer deactivates the feature. If forwarded to a long distance number the Subscriber will incur the long distance charges. Call Trace - Allows a called party to initiate an automatic trace of the last call received. Call Trace is available on a usage basis only. After receiving the call which is to be traced, the Customer dials a code and the traced telephone number is automatically sent to the Company for action. The Customer originating the trace will not receive the traced telephone number. The results of the trace will be furnished only to legally constituted law enforcement agencies or authorities upon proper request by them. Call Blocking - Call Blocking allows Customer to block calls from different telephone numbers. A screening list is created by Customer either by adding the last number associated with the line (incoming or outgoing) or by pre-selecting the telephone number to be blocked. Callers from such numbers hear an announcement that the calling party is not accepting calls and Customer’s phone will not ring. The screening list may be edited and revised at Customer’s discretion.

Network Exchange Bundled Service may include the calling features listed below, (cont'd.): Distinctive Ring - Distinctive Ring is a feature that allows a Customer to have up to two separate phone numbers assigned to one local exchange line. Each telephone number will provide a distinctive ring on an incoming call to allow for identification of the number being called. A distinctive call waiting tone is also provided for each telephone number, where facilities permit and Customers subscribe to Call Waiting. Distinctive Ring is offered subject to availability of suitable facilities. VIP Alert - Allows a customer to program telephone numbers of selected callers, enabling the customer to distinguish certain incoming calls from all others by a distinctive ring tone. Privacy Service - A feature which intercepts calls that are marked “private” and “out of area,” or “unavailable” on Caller ID units. When unidentified callers dial the Subscribers number, they will receive an announcement informing them that the party they are calling does not accept calls from unidentified callers. They will receive a prompt to identify their name or state their intention and the service will then attempt to connect the call. Only if the caller responds will the call be connected. The Subscriber's Caller ID will display the platform number and the name of the service. If the Subscriber chooses not to take the call the caller will hear a message which states the Subscriber is unavailable. Privacy Service is offered subject to availability of suitable facilities. This service will be provisioned on a line-by-line basis and Customers with more than one line would need to have the service activated on each line if they want the ability to intercept unknown and blocked calls to each line.

C. Network Exchange Bundled Service, (Cont’d.) 1. General, (Cont’d.) Call Waiting with Caller ID with Name - Call Waiting with Caller ID with Name provides a tone signal to indicate to a Customer already engaged in a telephone call that a second caller is attempting to dial in and allows a Customer to see a caller's name and number previewed on a display screen allowing a Customer to prioritize and or screen incoming calls. This feature permits the Customer to place the first call on hold, answer the second call and then alternate between both callers. Cancel Call Waiting (CCW) allows a Call Waiting (CW) Customer to disable CW for the duration of an outgoing telephone call. CCW is activated (i.e., CW is disabled) by dialing a special code prior to placing a call, and is automatically deactivated when the Customer disconnects from the call. In areas where Caller ID with Name is not available, Caller ID, which only displays the caller’s telephone number, will be substituted. Speed Calling - This feature allows a user to dial selected numbers by means of an abbreviated code. This feature is available in either an 8 number or a 30 number capacity. The Speed Calling list can only accommodate a number consisting of 15 digits or less. Three Way Calling - Permits the Customer to add a third party to an established connection. When the third party answers, a two-way conversation can be held before adding the original party for a three-way conference. The Customer initiating the conference controls the call and may disconnect the third party to reestablish the original connection or establish a connection to a different third party. The feature may be used on both outgoing and incoming.

Call originating ability is not affected by Call Forwarding. The calling party is billed for the call to the called number.

Calls cannot be transferred to an International Direct Distance Dialing number. Call Forwarding -Busy - Permanently routes incoming calls to a predetermined telephone number when the called line is busy. Call Forwarding - No Answer - Permanently routes incoming calls to a specified number, selected by the Customer, when the called line is unanswered.

F. Trinsic Spectrum Local Plus PPS, (Cont’d.) 6. Calling Features, (Cont’d.) Caller ID - Allows a Customer to see a caller's telephone number previewed on a display screen before the call is answered allowing a Customer to prioritize and or screen incoming calls. Caller ID records the number, date and time of each incoming call - including calls that aren't answered by the Customer. Caller ID service requires the use of specialized CPE not provided by the company. It is the responsibility of the Customer to provide the necessary CPE. Call Waiting - Call Waiting provides a tone signal to indicate to a Customer already engaged in a telephone call that a second caller is attempting to dial in. This feature permits the Customer to place the first call on hold, answer the second call and then alternate between both callers. Cancel Call Waiting (CCW) allows a Call Waiting (CW) Customer to disable CW for the duration of an outgoing telephone call. CCW is activated (i.e., CW is disabled) by dialing a special code prior to placing a call, and is automatically deactivated when the Customer disconnects from the call. Customers must actively choose this feature on a line-by-line basis. Call Waiting is not available on lines enabled for Rotary Hunting. Three Way Calling - Permits the Customer to add a third party to an established connection. When the third party answers, a two-way conversation can be held before adding the original party for a three-way conference. The Customer initiating the conference controls the call and may disconnect the third party to reestablish the original connection or establish a connection to a different third party. The feature may be used on both outgoing and incoming. Hunting - Routes a call to an idle station line in a prearranged group when the called station line is busy. This feature is available at no charge but must be requested by the Customer.

A call is terminated when either the called or calling party hangs up. There will be no charges for incomplete calls.

Callers access the Company’s Operator Services by dialing 0+ a 10 digit telephone number, 00 or a Company-provided access code or other Company-authorized access method plus the telephone number of the called station. Upon receipt of the call, the Company may verify the credit-worthiness of the designated billed party. When a payment method cannot be validated, or is unacceptable, callers may be required to select an alternative and acceptable means of payment. Total charges for use of this service include usage charges and an Operator Assistance Service Charge, as set forth below. An Operator Dialed Service Charge also applies to calls in which the caller has the capacity to dial the number, but has the operator dial instead. Usage charges are based upon the duration of a call, and are flat per minute based, 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, during all Time-of-Day Rate Periods. The Time-of-Day Rate Periods are defined as follows: Day Rates are applicable to calls placed Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to, but not including, 5:00 PM. Evening Rates are applicable to calls placed Sunday through Friday from 5:00 PM to, but not including, 11:00 PM; and on Carrier Recognized Holidays, unless a lower rate would normally apply. Night/Weekend Rates are applicable to calls placed Sunday through Friday from 11:00 PM to, but not including, 8:00 AM the following day, and all day Saturday. Chargeable time begins when the Company receives signaling to detect that the network connection between the calling station and the called station has been established. Chargeable time ends when either party "hangs up" thereby releasing the network connection. For collect calls, chargeable time begins when the called station accepts responsibility for payment of the charges associated with the call. All calls are measured and billed in one minute increments; fractional minutes of use are rounded up to the next full minute.

Operator Assistance Service Charges and Surcharge Descriptions: A Service Charge is applicable to Customer Dialed (Automated) Calling Card Station, Operator Assisted Calling Card Station, Operator Station-to-Station (including Sent Paid, Sent Collect, Third Number Billed or Calling Card), Person- to-Person (including Sent Paid, Sent Collect, Third Number Billed or Calling Card) and for Busy Line Verifications and Busy Line Interruptions. These charge(s) are in addition to the initial period and additional period per minute usage charges applicable to each call. When a call is subject to more than one Service Charge, only the highest Service Charge applies, unless indicated otherwise herein. Operator Assistance Service Charges vary depending upon the billing option selected by the caller. The following call placement options are available: 1. Operator Station-to-Station - refers to when an end user requests operator assistance in reaching a telephone number and is willing to talk to anyone who answers. The call may be billed as Sent Paid (calling party pays for the call), Sent Collect (called party pays for the call), or may be billed to a Third Party Number or Calling Card. Sent Collect and Third Number Billed calls may not be allowed in locations where the Company does not have billing arrangement availability. To activate Station-to-Station Operator Services, the caller’s dialing sequence could be: 0+ a 10 digit telephone number, or 00 (only), or any other Company-provided access method, to get an operator directly to request that a Station-to-Station call be placed. 2. Person-to-Person - refers to when an end user requests operator assistance in reaching a specific person, department, extension, office, etc. The operator dials the number and stays on the line until the requested party is reached and conversation begins. The call may be billed as Sent Paid (calling party pays for the call), Sent Collect (called party pays for the call), or may billed to a Third Number or Calling Card. Sent Collect and Third Number Billed calls may not be allowed in locations where the Company does not have billing arrangement availability. To activate Person-to-Person Operator Services, the caller’s dialing sequence could be: 0+ a 10 digit telephone number, or 00 (only), or any other Company- provided access method, to get an operator directly to request that a Person-to-Person call be placed.

Operator Assistance Service Charges and Surcharge Descriptions: (Continued) 3. Busy Line Verification - refers to those instances where the Company will provide operator assistance to determine if there is conversation ongoing on a called station. A Service Charge is applied to all attempts to verify the condition of a customer line, busy talking, busy not talking (e.g., off hook), except attempts which are unsuccessful due to network equipment failure. 4. Busy Line Interruption - refers to those instances where the Company operator will interrupt an ongoing conversation on a called station. A charge will apply each time the Company operator attempts the emergency interruption whether or not the interruption is successful. A Busy Line Verification must be made and its service charge applied before an Emergency Interruption can be attempted. Once an operator has verified the line, and the called party has agreed to accept the interruption, the Customer is provided the option of completing an operator assisted call to the called station without hanging up or originating a separate call. Customers may accept or refuse the operator's offer to complete the call. Calls completed with the operator’s assistance will be charged an additional Service Charge under Station-to-Station or Person-to-Person, as applicable. If the operator dials or completes the call to the verified telephone number for the Customer, the Operator Dialed Surcharge will also apply. 5. Operator Dialed Surcharge - will apply to Station-to-Station and Person- to-Person calls when the Customer has the ability to dial all the digits necessary for call completion but dials instead “0”, “00” or another Company-provided access code or other Company-authorized access method to reach a Company operator to have the operator place the call. This surcharge will be incurred by the Customer in addition to the applicable Service Charge. However, the surcharge will not apply to: (1) calls which cannot be completed by the Customer due to equipment failure or trouble on the Company’s network; (2) calls placed by parties identified as handicapped and who cannot complete the calls due to the handicap; and (3) calls made on a 0- basis in which a company operator places a call for a calling party after a Busy Line Verification and Busy Line Interruption process has been successfully completed.

Service is available twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days a week, subject to routine maintenance and outages beyond the control of the Carrier. Carrier's switching equipment is designed and engineered to provide high quality transmission of voice and data with a minimum level of impairment such as noise and echo. However, overall quality may vary somewhat due to the variability in quality of the connections provided by the local telephone companies and other interexchange carriers. 10.1.2 Timing of Calls A. Long distance usage charges are based on the actual conversation time transpiring on VT's network. No charge will generally apply to uncompleted calls, which include "ring busy" and "ring no answer calls," and such uncompleted calls will not be knowingly charged to the Customer and, if charged in error, will be refundable to the Customer. In the event that the Customer fails to hang up when receiving a busy signal or "ring no answer call" for an excessive period of time, however, the Customer may be charged as if the call were completed. VT will determine that a call has been established by signal, where available, from the local telephone company or underlying carrier.

Conditions for Line Extension Charges Construction Charges for line extensions are applied to Customer's with abnormally long extension requirements to prevent unreasonable burdening of the general body of existing Customers or service subscribers. B. Rules for Line Extension Charges All costs will be computed on a current basis, and material cost will be computed on the basis of the extension of the minimum sized cable used by the Company or its designated facilities provider to the Customer.

The construction charge for line extensions is apportioned equally among all Customers of a group. Customers may be required to make advance payments to cover all or a portion of the excess construction charges for exchange service or special service arrangements when in the Company s judgment there is evidence of credit risk. A cash deposit may also be required as specified in Rules and Regulation, Section 2, on Deposits. Payments for line construction are not refundable, and no credit will be allowed for future installations on line extensions constructed under the above regulations.

D. Service to Residential and Commercial Developments The construction charges, allowances and provisions previously specified in this Section contemplate the extension of facilities into areas of normal growth and development. Where facilities are to be extended into new areas of residential or commercial real estate development which, in the Company s opinion, are of a promotional or speculative nature, the Company may require an advance deposit equal to all or a portion of the costs of such construction, depending on the circumstances in each case. This advance deposit will be payable prior to the start of construction. The Company and the developer may enter into a contractual agreement that provides for the periodic refund of portions of the deposit as Customers in the development receive telephone service, and other terms of the contract are met. The contract will specify the estimated number of telephone customers expected to receive service within the area and the time required to complete the project (not to exceed five years). The contract will provide that the construction charge be recomputed to reflect regular tariff allowances, design changes made by the developer, damage to telephone facilities by persons other than Company employees or agents or unusual construction requirements. Periodic refunds to the developer will be adjusted accordingly. The Customer for telephone service to a development is required to provide the Company, at his own expense, the necessary easements for installation and maintenance of telephone facilities clear the ground where facilities are to be installed according to Company specifications and request installation of telephone facilities at an appropriate time during construction of the project to avoid unnecessary costs to the Company.

The telephone numbers of non-published service or the name and billing address that corresponds to a non-published number may be divulged in the following two instances: First, in the interest of public safety, where a government agency subscribes to Enhanced Universal Emergency Telephone Number Service (E911) the telephone number and address, but not the name, of a customer with non-published service will be displayed when that customer dials 911 to a government employee at a console at a Public Safety Answering Point for dispatch of emergency service. Second, the billing name and address that correspond to a non-published telephone number will be furnished to a subscriber to Billing Name and Address (BNA) Service if the customer with the non-published service makes a call that uses the service of the BNA subscriber. Incoming calls to non-published service will be completed by the Company only when the calling party places the call by number. The Company will adhere to this practice not withstanding any claim the calling party may present, except claims of emergencies involving life and death. In such cases, the Company will call the non-published number and request permission to make an immediate connection to the calling party.
