Sheet Numbering - Sheet numbers appear in the upper right corner of the sheet. Sheets are numbered sequentially. However, new sheets are occasionally added to the rate sheet. When a new sheet is added between sheets already in effect, a decimal is added. For example, a new sheet added between sheets 14 and 15 would be 14.1. B. Sheet Revision Numbers - Revision numbers also appear in the upper right corner of each sheet. These numbers are used to determine the most current sheet version on file with the Commission. For example, the 4th revised Sheet 14 cancels the 3rd revised Sheet 14. Because of various suspension periods, deferrals, etc. the Commission follows in its rate sheet approval process, the most current sheet number on file with the Commission is not always the sheet in effect. Consult the Check Sheet for the sheet currently in effect. C. Paragraph Numbering Sequence - There are nine levels of paragraph coding. Each level of coding is subservient to the next higher level: 2. 2.1 2.1.1 2.1.1.A. 2.1.1.A.1. 2.1.1.A.1.(a) 2.1.1.A.1.(a).I. 2.1.1.A.1.(a).I.(i). 2.1.1.A.1.(a).I.(i).(1). D. Check Sheets - When a rate sheet filing is made with the FCC, an updated Check Sheet accompanies the rate sheet filing. The Check Sheet lists the sheets contained in the rate sheet, with a cross-reference to the current revision number. When new sheets are added, the Check Sheet is changed to reflect the revision. All revisions made in a given filing are designated by an asterisk (*). There will be no other symbols used on this sheet if these are the only changes made to it (i.e., the format, etc. remain the same, just revised revision levels on some sheets.) The rate sheet user should refer to the latest Check Sheet to find out if a particular sheet is the most current on file with the FCC.

Idaho PUC Tariff No. 3 d/b/a MetTel Original Page Number 28.1 COMPETITIVE ACCESS PROVIDER SERVICES TARIFF Issued: January 4, 2012 Effective: February 4, 2012 Issued by: Andoni Economou, Vice President Metropolitan Telecommunications of Idaho, Inc. 55 Water Street – Floor 31 New York, New York 10041 SECTION 2 – RULES AND REGULATIONS, (Cont’d) 2.3 Obligations of the Customer (Cont’d) 2.3.4 Identification and Rating of VoIP-PSTN Traffic (A) Scope 1. VoIP-PSTN Traffic is defined as traffic exchanged between a MetTel end user and the customer in time division multiplexing (“TDM”) format that originates and/or terminates in Internet protocol (“IP”) format. This section governs the identification of VoIP-PSTN Traffic that is required to be compensated at interstate access rates (unless the parties have agreed otherwise) by the Federal Communications Commission in its Report and Order in WC Docket Nos. 10-90, etc., FCC Release No. 11-161 (Nov. 18, 2011) (“FCC Order”). Specifically, this section establishes the method of separating such traffic (referred to in this tariff as “Relevant VoIP-PSTN Traffic”) from the customer’s traditional intrastate access traffic, so that such Relevant VoIP-PSTN Traffic can be billed in accordance with the FCC Order. 2. This 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 interstate access charges for Relevant VoIP-PSTN Traffic in accordance with the FCC Order. (B) Rating of VoIP-PSTN Traffic The Relevant VoIP-PSTN Traffic identified in accordance with this tariff section will be billed at rates equal to MetTel’s applicable tariffed interstate switched access rates as specified in MetTel’s FCC Tariff. (C) Calculation and Application of Percent-VoIP-Usage Factor MetTel will determine the number of Relevant VoIP-PSTN Traffic minutes of use (“MOU”) to which interstate rates will be applied under subsection (B), above, by applying a Percent VoIP Usage (“PVU”) factor to the total intrastate access MOU exchanged between a MetTel end user and the customer. The PVU will be derived and applied as follows: Idaho Public Utilities Commission Office of the Secretary ACCEPTED FOR FILING February 4, 2012 Boise, Idaho Metropolitan Telecommunications of Idaho, Inc. Idaho PUC Tariff No. 3 d/b/a MetTel Original Page Number 28.2 COMPETITIVE ACCESS PROVIDER SERVICES TARIFF Issued: January 4, 2012 Effective: February 4, 2012 Issued by: Andoni Economou, Vice President Metropolitan Telecommunications of Idaho, Inc. 55 Water Street – Floor 31 New York, New York 10041 SECTION 2 – RULES AND REGULATIONS, (Cont’d) 2.3 Obligations of the Customer (Cont’d) 2.3.4 Identification and Rating of VoIP-PSTN Traffic (Cont’d) (C) Calculation and Application of Percent-VoIP-Usage Factor (Cont’d) 1. The customer will calculate and furnish to MetTel a factor (the “PVU-C”) representing the percentage of the total intrastate and interstate access MOU that the customer exchanges with MetTel in the State, that (a) is sent to MetTel and that originated in IP format; or (b) is received from MetTel and terminated in IP format. This PVU-C shall be based on information such as the number of the customer’s retail VoIP subscriptions in the state (e.g., as reported on FCC Form 477), traffic studies, actual call detail, or other relevant and verifiable information. 2. MetTel will, likewise, calculate a factor (the “PVU-M”) representing the percentage of MetTel’s total intrastate and interstate access MOU in the State that MetTel originates or terminates on its network in IP format. This PVU-M shall be based on information, such as the number of MetTel’s retail VoIP subscriptions in the state (e.g., as reported on FCC Form 477), traffic studies, actual call detail, or other relevant and verifiable information. 3. MetTel will use the PVU-C and PVU-M factors to calculate a PVU factor that represents the percentage of total intrastate and interstate access MOU exchanged between a MetTel end user and the customer that is originated or terminated in IP format, whether at MetTel’s end, at the customer’s end, or at both ends. The PVU factor will be calculated as the sum of: (A) the PVU-C factor and (B) the PVU-M factor times (1.0 minus the PVU-C factor). 4. MetTel will apply the PVU factor to the total intrastate access MOU exchanged with the customer to determine the number of Relevant VoIP- PSTN Traffic MOUs. Example 1: The PVU-M is 10% and the PVU-C is 40%. The PVU factor is equal to 40% + (10% X 60%) = 46%. MetTel will bill 46% of the customer’s intrastate access MOU at its applicable tariffed interstate rates.

The PVU factor is equal to 0% + (100% X 10%) = 10%. MetTel will bill 10% of the customer’s intrastate access MOU at its applicable tariffed interstate switched access rates. Example 3: The PVU-C is 100%. No matter what the PVU-M factor is, the PVU is 100%. MetTel will bill 100% of the customer’s intrastate access MOU at MetTel’s applicable tariffed interstate switched access rates. 5. If the customer does not furnish MetTel with a PVU-C pursuant to the preceding paragraph 1, MetTel will utilize a PVU equal to the PVU-M. (D) Initial PVU Factor If the PVU factor is not available and/or cannot be implemented in MetTel’s billing systems by January 1, 2012, MetTel will set the initial PVU equal to the PVU-M, as specified in subsection (C)(5), above. (E) PVU Factor Updates The customer may update the PVU-C factor quarterly using the method set forth in subsection (C)(1), above. If the customer chooses to submit such updates, it shall forward to MetTel, no later than 15 days after the first day of January, April, July and/or October of each year, a revised PVU-C factor based on data for the prior three months, ending the last day of December, March, June and September, respectively. MetTel will use the revised PVU-C to calculate a revised PVU. The revised PVU factor will apply prospectively and serve as the basis for billing until superseded by a new PVU. (F) PVU Factor Verification Not more than twice in any year, MetTel may ask the customer to verify the PVU-C factor furnished to MetTel and customer may ask MetTel to verify the PVU-M factor and the calculation of the PVU factor. The party so requested shall comply, and shall reasonably provide the records and other information used to determine the respective PVU-C and PVU-M factors.
