10.Local Number Portability (LNP)
10.1 Description
10.Local Number Portability (LNP) is defined by the FCC as the
ability of users of Telecommunications Services to retain , at the same location
existing telecommunications numbers without impairment of quality, reliability, or
convenience when switching from one Telecommunications Carrier to another.
10.Qwest uses the Location Routing Number (LRN) architecture.
Under the LRN architecture, each Switch is assigned a unique ten-digit LRN , the
first six digits of which identify the location of that Switch. The LRN technology is
triggering and addressing method which allows the re-homing of individual
telephone numbers to other Switches and ensures the proper routing of calls to
ported telephone numbers through the use of a database and the signaling
network. The LRN solution interrupts call processing through the use of an
Advanced Intelligent Network (AIN) trigger, commonly referred to as the LRN
trigger. During this interruption , a query is launched to the LNP database in the
signaling network and the call is re-addressed using the LRN information for the
ported telephone number. The LRN will route the call to the proper Switch
destination. The actual routing of the call with either the dialed number, for calls
to non-ported numbers, or the LRN , for calls to ported numbers, observes the
rules, protocols and requirements of the existing Public Office Dialing Plan
(PODP).
10.2 Terms and Conditions
10.Qwest will provide Local Number Portability (LNP), also known as
long-term number portability, in a non-discriminatory manner in compliance with
the FCC's rules and regulations and the guidelines of the FCC's North American
Numbering Council's (NANC) Local Number Portability Administration (LNPA)
Working Group and the Industry Numbering Committee (INC) of the Alliance for
Telecommunications Industry Solutions (ATIS). Unless specifically excluded in
Section 10., all telephone numbers assigned to an End User Customer are
available to be ported through LNP. Mass calling events shall be handled in
accordance with the industry s non-LRN recommendation (NANC's High Volume
Call-In Networks dated February 18, 1998.
10.Each Party shall use reasonable efforts to facilitate the
expeditious deployment of LNP. The Parties shall comply with the processes
and implementation schedules for LNP deployment prescribed by the FCC.
accordance with industry guidelines, the publications of LNP capable Switches
and the schedule and status for future deployment will be identified in the Local
Exchange Routing Guide (LERG).
November 9, 2004/lhd/Project Mutual/LNP/ID
Amendment to DEN-980603-4401
ATTACHMENT
10.In connection with the provision of LNP, the Parties agree to
support and comply with all relevant requirements or guidelines that are adopted
by the FCC, or that are agreed to by the telecommunications industry as a
national industry standard.
10.2.4 Qwest will coordinate LNP with Unbundled Loop cutovers in a
reasonable amount of time and with minimum service disruption, pursuant to
Unbundled Loop provisions identified in the Agreement. Project will coordinate
with Qwest for the return of the Qwest Unbundled Loop coincident with the
transfer of the Customer s service to Qwest in a reasonable amount of time and
with minimum service disruption. For coordination with Loops not associated
with Qwest's Unbundled Loop offering, Project may order the LNP Managed Cut,
as described in Section 10.
10.2.4.Parties understand that LNP order activity must be
coordinated with facilities cutovers in order to ensure that the End User
is provided with uninterrupted service. If the Party porting the telephone
number experiences problems with its port or provision of its Loop, and
needs to delay or cancel the port and any Loop disconnection , that
Party shall notify the other Party immediately. Parties will work
cooperatively and take prompt action to delay or cancel the port and
any Loop disconnection in accordance with industry (LNPA's National
Number Porting Operations Team), accepted procedures to minimize
End User Customer service disruptions.
10.2.4.Parties shall transmit a port create subscription or port
concurrence message to the NPAC, in accordance with the FCC'
LNPA Working Group guidelines. Qwest will routinely send
concurrence message within the time frames established by the
industry .
10.The Parties agree to implement LNP within the guidelines set forth
by the generic technical requirements for LNP as specified in the Agreement.
10.Neither Party shall be required to provide number portability for
numbers that are excluded by FCC rulings (e.g. 500 and 900 NPAs, 950 and 976
NXX number services).
10.After an end-office becomes equipped with LNP all NXXs
assigned to that end office will be defined as portable, to the extent Technically
Feasible, and translations will be changed in each Party s Switches so that the
portable NXXs are available for LNP database queries. When an NXX is defined
as portable, it will also be defined as portable in all LNP-capable Switches that
have direct trunks to the end office associated with the portable NXX.
10.Each Party shall offer number portability to customers for any
portion of an existing DID block without being required to port the entire block of
DID numbers. Each Party shall permit customers who port a portion of DID
numbers to retain DID service on the remaining portion of the DID numbers.
November 9, 2004/lhd/Project Mutual/LNP/ID
Amendment to DEN-980603-4401
ATTACHMENT
10.At the time of porting a number via LNP from Qwest, Qwest shall
ensure that the LlDB entry for that number is de-provisioned if the Qwest LlDB is
not being used by Project.
10.10 Both Parties agree to follow the LNP Switch request process
established by the Parties and in compliance with industry guidelines.
10.11 NXX Migration, or Local Exchange Routing Guide Reassignment
reassigns the entire Central Office Code (NXX) to Project's Switch if the code is
used solely for one End User. Where one Party has activated an entire NXX for
a single End User, or activated a substantial portion of an NXX for a single End
User with the remaining numbers in the NXX either reserved for future use or
otherwise unused, if such End User chooses to receive service from the other
Party, the first Party shall cooperate with the second Party to have the entire
NXX reassigned to an End Office operated by the second Party through the
NANP administrator. In addition, both Parties agree to cooperate in arranging
necessary updates and industry notification in the LERG (and associated
industry databases, routing tables, etc.
).
Such transfer will be accomplished with
appropriate coordination between the Parties and subject to appropriate industry
lead-times (as identified in the LERG and the Central Office Code Administration
guidelines) for movement of NXXs from one Switch to another. Other
applications of NXX migration will be discussed by the Parties as circumstances
arise.
10.12 In connection with all LNP requests, the Parties agree to complywith the National Emergency Number Association (NENA) recommended
standards for service provider Local Number Portability (NENA-02-011), as may
be updated from time to time , regarding unlocking and updating End Users
telephone number records in the 911/Automatic Location Information (All)
database. The current provider shall send the 911 unlock record on the
completion date of the order to the 911 database administrator.
10.13 Porting of Reserved Numbers. The customers of each Party may
port reserved numbers from one Party to the other Party via LNP. Qwest will port
numbers previously reserved by the Customer via the appropriate retail tariffs
until these reservations expire. Qwest will no longer reserve numbers for End
User customers.
10.14 Limits on Subscriber Relocation. Qwest and Project agree that a
Customer may geographically relocate at the same time as it ports its telephone
number, using LNP, to the new service provider; provided, however, that the
current service provider may require that the Customer s relocation at the time ofthe port to the new service provider be limited to the geographic area
represented by the NXX of the ported telephone number. The current service
provider may not impose a relocation limitation on the new service provider or the
new service provider s subscribers that is more restrictive than that which the
current service provider would impose upon its own subscribers with telephone
numbers having the same NXX as the telephone number(s) being ported.
addition , the current service provider may not impose any restrictions on

Amendment to DEN-980603-4401
ATTACHMENT
relocation within the same Rate Center by a ported End User while that End User
is served by the new service provider.
10.3 Service Management System
10.Each Party shall sign the appropriate NPAC user agreement(s)
and obtain certification from the appropriate NPAC administrator(s) that the Partyor the Party Service Order Administration (SOA) and Local Service
Management System (LSMS) vendor(s) has systems and equipment that are
compatible with the NPAC's established protocols and that the application of
such systems and equipment is compatible with the NPAC.
10.Each Party shall cooperate to facilitate the administration of the
SMS through the process prescribed in the documents referenced in Section 21.
10.4 Database and Query Services
10.Qwest shall perform default LNP queries where Project is unable
to perform its own query. Project shall perform default LNP queries where Qwest
is unable to perform its own query. Qwest query services and charges are
defined in FCC Tariff #1 , including End Office and Tandem Default Query
Charges which are contained in Tariff Section 13 (Miscellaneous Service) and
Database Query Charges which are contained in Tariff Section 20 (CCSAC
Service Applications). Project query services and charges are available upon
request.
10.2.4.For local calls to a NXX in which at least one number has been
ported via LNP at the request of Project, the Party that owns the originating
Switch shall query an LNP database as soon as the call reaches the first LNP
capable Switch in the call path. The Party that owns the originating Switch shall
query on a local call to a NXX in which at least one number has been ported via
LNP prior to any attempts to route the call to any other Switch. Prior to the first
number in a NXX being ported via LNP at the request of Project, Qwest may
query all calls directed to the NXX, subject to the billing provisions as discussed
in Section 10.1 and provided that Qwest queries shall not adversely affect the
quality of service to Project's customers or End Users as compared to the service
Qwest provides its own customers and End Users.
10.A Party shall be charged for a LNP query by the other Party only if
the Party to be charged is the N-1 carrier and it was obligated to perform the LNP
query but failed to do so. Parties are not obligated to perform the LNP query
prior to the first port requested in a NXX.
10.2.4.4 On calls originating from a Party s network, the Party will populate
if Technically Feasible, the Jurisdiction Information Parameter (JIP) with the first
six digits of the originating LRN in the SS7 Initial Address Message.
10.2.4.Each Party shall cooperate in the process of porting numbers from
one carrier to another so as to limit service outage for the ported subscriber.

Amendment to DEN-980603-4401
ATTACHMENT
Qwest shall update its LNP database from the NPAC SMS data within fifteen (15)
minutes of receipt of a download from the NPAC SMS.
10.5 Ordering
10.Both Parties shall comply with ordering standards as developed
by the industry and as described in the Agreement. LNP service is ordered via a
Local Service Request and associated Number Portability forms. Project may
order long term number portability either manually or through an electronic
interface. The electronic gateway solution for ordering service is described in the
Agreement.
10.Standard Due Date Intervals. Service intervals for LNP are
described below. These intervals include the time for Firm Order Confirmation
(FOC). Orders received after 7:00 p.m. (mountain time) are considered the next
business day. The following service intervals have been established for local
number portability:

26 or more Project Basis
Intervals for LNP with Unbundled Loops shall be governed by the Agreement.
10.Most LNP order activity is flow-through , meaning that the ten (10)
digit unconditional trigger, or line side attribute (LSA) trigger, can be set
automatically. Project may request any Due Date/Frame Due Time (DD/FDT)
where the trigger can be set automatically, although there may be some
instances when Qwest or the Number Portability Administration Center/Service
Management System (NPAC/SMS) will provide prior electronic notice of specific
blocks of time which cannot be used as a DD/FDT due to scheduled
maintenance or other circumstances. If the DD/FDT on a flow-though cut is
outside Qwest's normal business hours for LNP Qwest will have personnel
available in the Repair Center to assist in the event that Project experiences
problems during the cut. In addition , Qwest allows Project to request a Managed

Amendment to DEN-980603-4401
ATTACHMENT
Cut on a 24 X 7 basis in those situations where a cut would otherwise have been
flow-through, but where Project has a business need to have Qwest personnel
dedicated to the cut. The terms and conditions for Managed Cuts are described
in 10.5.4.
10.Qwest will set the ten (10) digit unconditional trigger for
numbers to be ported, unless technically infeasible, by 11 :59 p.m. (local
time) on the business day preceding the scheduled port date. (A 10-
digit unconditional trigger cannot be set for DI D services in 1 AESS
AXE10, and DMS10 Switches thus managed cuts are required, at no
charge.) The ten (10) digit unconditional trigger and Switch translations
associated with the End User Customer s telephone number will not be
removed, nor will Qwest disconnect the Customer s billing and account
information, until 11 :59 p.m. (local time) of the next business day after
the Due Date. Project is required to make timely notifications of Due
Date changes or cancellations by 8:00 p.m. mountain time on the Due
Date through a supplemental LSR order. In the event Project does not
make a timely notification , Project may submit a late notification to
Qwest as soon as possible but in no event later than 12:00 p.
mountain time the next business day after the Due Date to Qwest'
Interconnect Service Center in the manner set forth below. For a late
notification properly submitted, Qwest agrees to use its best efforts to
ensure that the End User s service is not disconnected prior to 11 :59
m. of the next business day following the new Due Date or, in the
case of a cancellation , no disruption of the End User s existing service.
Late notifications must be made by calling Qwest's Interconnect Service
Center followed by Project submitting a confirming supplemental LSR
order.
10.5.4 LNP Managed Cut with Project-provided Loop: A Managed Cut
permits Project to select a project managed cut for LNP. Managed Cuts are
offered on a 24 X 7 basis.
10.5.4.The date and time for the managed cut requires up-front
planning and may need to be coordinated between Qwest and Project.
All requests will be processed on a first come , first served basis and are
subject to Qwest'ability to meet a reasonable demand.
Considerations such as system downtime , Switch upgrades, Switch
maintenance, and the possibility of other CLECs requesting the same
FDT in the same Switch (Switch contention) must be reviewed. In the
event that any of these situations would occur, Qwest will coordinate
with Project for an agreed upon FDT, prior to issuing the Firm Order
Confirmation (FOC). In special cases where a FDT must be agreed
upon, the interval to reach agreement will not exceed two (2) days.
addition, standard intervals will apply.
10.Project shall request a Managed Cut by submitting a Local
Service Request (LSR) and designating this order as a Managed Cut in
the remarks section of the LSR form.
November 9, 2004/lhd/Project Mutual/LNP/ID
Amendment to DEN-980603-4401
ATTACHMENT
10.Project will incur additional charges for the Managed Cut
dependent upon the FDT. The rates are based upon whether the
request is within Qwest's normal business hours or out of hours.
Qwest's normal business hours are 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p., End User
local time, Monday through Friday. The rate for Managed Cuts during
normal business hours is the standard rate. The rate for Managed Cuts
out of hours, except for Sundays and Holidays , is the overtime rate.
Sundays and Holidays are at premium rate.
10.4.4 Charges for Managed Cuts shall be based upon actual
hours worked in one half (Y2) hour increments. Exhibit A of this
Amendment contains the rates for Managed Cuts. Project understands
and agrees that in the event Project does not make payment for
Managed Cuts, unless disputed as permitted under the Agreement,
Qwest shall not accept any new LSR requests for Managed Cuts.
10.5.4.Qwest will schedule the appropriate number of employees
prior to the cut, normally not to exceed three (3) employees, based
upon information provided by Project. Project will also have appropriate
personnel scheduled for the negotiated FDT. If Project's information is
modified during the cut, and, as a result, non-scheduled employees are
required, Project shall be charged a three (3) hour minimum callout
charge per each additional non-scheduled employee. If the cut is either
cancelled, or supplemented (supp) to change the due date, within
twenty four (24) hours of the negotiated FDT, Project will be charged a
one person three (3) hour minimum charge. If the cut is cancelled due
to a Qwest error or a new due date is requested by Qwest , within
twenty-four (24) hours of the negotiated FDT, Qwest may be charged
by Project one person three (3) hour minimum charge as set forth in
Appendix A.
10.In the event that the LNP Managed Cut LNP conversion is
not successful, Project and Qwest agree to isolate and fix the problem
in a timeframe acceptable to Project or the Customer. If the problem
cannot be corrected within an acceptable timeframe to Project or the
Customer, Project may request the restoral of Qwest service for the
ported Customer. Such restoration shall begin immediately uponrequest. If Project is in error then a supplemental order shall be
provided to Qwest. If Qwest is in error, no supplemental order or
additional order will be required of Project.
10.5.4.Qwest shall ensure that any LNP order activity requested
in conjunction with a Managed Cut shall be implemented in a manner
that avoids interrupting service to the End User, including, without
limitation, ensuring that the End User s Qwest Loop will not be
disconnected prior to confirmation that Project'Loop has been
successfully installed.
