TERMS AND CONDITIONS, (CONT’D.) 2.17 Jurisdictional Reporting and Identification of Toll VoIP-PSTN Traffic, (Cont’d.) 2.17.3 Identification of VoIP-PSTN Traffic This section governs the identification of Toll VoIP-PSTN Traffic that is required by the F.C.C. in its Report and Order in WC Dockets Nos. 10-90, etc., F.C.C. No. 11-161 (November 18, 2011) (F.C.C. Order) and Second Order on Reconsideration FCC 12-47 (April 25, 2012) (“Second Order”) to be compensated at interstate access rates, unless the parties have agreed otherwise. Specifically, this section establishes the method of separating Toll VoIP-PSTN Traffic from the Customer’s traditional intrastate access traffic, so that Toll VoIP-PSTN Traffic can be billed in accordance with the F.C.C. Order and Second Order. A. Calculation and Application of Percent-VoIP-PSTN-Usage Factors The Company will determine the number of relevant VoIP-PSTN Traffic minutes of use ("MOU") to which interstate rates will be applied under Section 3.1.4, by applying a Percent VoIP Usage ("PVU") factor to the total intrastate access MOU (however determined – either based on call detail information, access lines or PIU) exchanged between the Company and the Customer, until July 21, 2012 and after July 1, 2014. From July 21, 2012 through June 30, 2014, the PVU will be applied only to terminating intrastate access MOU, except as otherwise noted in 2.17.3.A.3 below. The PVU will be derived and applied as follows: 1. Except as otherwise noted in 2.17.3.A.3 below, the Customer will calculate and furnish to the Company a factor (the "PVU-A") representing the percentage of the total intrastate access MOU that the Customer exchanges with the Company in the State, that (a) is terminating access sent to the Company and that originates in IP format; or (b) is originating access received from the Company and terminates in IP format until July 21, 2012 and after June 30, 2014. This PVU-A 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. Except as otherwise noted in 2.17.3.A.3 below, the Company will, likewise, calculate a factor (the "PVU-B") representing the percentage of the Company's total intrastate access MOU in the State that the Company originates or terminates in IP format. From July 21, 2012 through June 30, 2014, the PVU-B will represent only terminating access MOU. This PVU-B shall be based on information such as the number of the Company'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.

A. Calculation and Application of Percent-VoIP-PSTN-Usage Factors, (Cont’d.) 3. The Company will use the PVU-A and PVU-B factors to calculate an effective PVU factor that represents the percentage of total intrastate access MOU exchanged between the Company and the Customer that is originated and/or terminated in IP format, whether at the Company's end, at the Customer's end, or at both ends. From July 21, 2012 through June 30, 2014, the PVU will represent only terminating intrastate access MOU. The effective PVU factor will be calculated as the sum of: (A) the PVU-A factor and (B) the PVU-B factor times (1.0 minus the PVU-A factor). Note: PVU factors will not be provided or collected by the Company for the traffic period from July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014. This represents the period during which the Company’s terminating intrastate rate is equal to its terminating interstate rate and PVU is not applied to originating traffic. Traffic on or after July 1, 2014 will be subject to the most recently available PVU factor on file with the Company for application of charges to originating access traffic. PVU updates must be received at least 30 days prior to July 1, 2014 if a new factor will apply. 4. The Company will apply the effective PVU factor to the applicable intrastate access MOU exchanged with the Customer, as described above, to determine the number of relevant VoIP-PSTN Traffic MOUs. Example 1: The PVU-B is 5% and the PVU-A is 10%. The effective PVU factor is equal to 14.5% PVU-A + (PVU-B x (1- PVU-A)) = PVU%. The Company will bill 14.5% of the Customer's applicable intrastate access MOU in accordance with the Company’s interstate switched access tariff. Example 2: The PVU-B is 0% and the PVU-A is 10%. The effective PVU factor is 10% PVU-A + (PVU-B x (1- PVU-A)) = PVU%. The Company will bill 10% of the Customer's applicable intrastate access MOU in accordance with the Company's interstate switched access tariff.

A. Calculation and Application of Percent-VoIP-PSTN-Usage Factors, (Cont’d.) 4. (Cont’d.) Example 3: The PVU-A is 100%. No matter what the PVU-B factor is, the effective PVU is 100%. The Company will bill 100% of the Customer's applicable intrastate access MOU in accordance with the Company's interstate switched access tariff. 5. If the Customer does not furnish the Company with a PVU-A pursuant to the preceding paragraph 1, the Company will utilize a PVU equal to the PVU-B. For example, if the PVU-B factor is 0%, the Company will utilize a PVU equal to zero. 6. The Customer shall not modify their reported PIU factor to account for Toll VoIP-PSTN Traffic. 7. The Customer shall retain the call detail, work papers, and information used to develop the PVU factors for a minimum of one year. B. Initial Implementation of PVU Factors 1. The PVU factors were implemented in the Company’s billing system on May 15, 2012. Usage billed after May 15, 2012 will be processed pursuant to paragraph 2.17.3.A.5 above and 2.17.4 below. C. PVU Factor Updates The Customer may update the PVU-A factor quarterly. The Company may also update the PVU-B factor quarterly. The revised PVU factor will serve as the basis for future billing and will be effective on the bill date of each such month and shall serve as the basis for subsequent monthly billing until superseded by new PVU factors.

The quarterly report will serve as the basis for the next three (3) months billing and will be effective on the bill date for that service. If the Customer does not supply the reports for services where reports are needed, the Company will assume the percentages to be the same as was previously provided in the most recent report(s). 2.17.5 Jurisdictional Reports and VoIP-PSTN Factors Verification If a billing dispute arises or a regulatory commission questions any of the factors, the Customer will provide the data issued to determine the applicable factors. The Customer will supply the data within 30 days of the Company request. The Customer shall keep records of call detail, description of the method for determining how end users originate and terminate calls in IP format, and other information from which the appropriate factors can be ascertained and, upon request of the Company, shall make the records available for inspection as reasonably necessary for purposes of verification of the factors. The Company reserves the right to conduct an audit, internally or with an external firm, at any time during the year. The Customer, at its own expense, has the right to retain an independent auditing firm. In the event that an audit reveals that any Customer reported factors are incorrect, the Company shall apply the audit results to all usage affected by the audit. The Customer shall be back-billed or credited, for a period retroactive to the date that the incorrect percentage was reported, but not to exceed 12 months. Back-billed amounts are subject to a late payment penalty and payment shall be made in immediately available funds by the due date printed on the invoice. Should an audit reveal that the misreported factors resulted in an underpayment of usage charges to the Company of five percent or more of the total usage charges, the Customer shall reimburse the Company for the cost of the audit. Proof of cost shall be the bills, in reasonable detail, submitted to the Company by the auditor. Within 15 days of completion of the auditor's report, the Company will furnish a copy of the audit results to the person designated by the Customer to receive such results.
