TARIFF FORMAT
A. Page Numbering - Page numbers appear in the upper right comer of the page. Pages are numbered
sequentially. However, new pages are occasionally added to the tariff. When a new page is added between
pages already in effect, a decimal is added. For example, a new page added between pages 14 and 15 would be
14.
B. Page Revision Numbers - Revision numbers also appear in the upper right corner of each page. These
numbers are used to determine the most current page version on file with the Commission. For example, the
4th revised Page 14 cancels the 3rd revised Page 14. Because of various suspension periods, deferrals, etc., the
most current page number on file with the Commission is not always the tariff page in effect. Consult the
Check Sheet for the page currently in effect.
C. Paragraph Numbering Sequence - There are nine levels of paragraph coding. Each level of coding is
subservient to its next higher level:
1.1.
1. LA.
1.1.A.
2. 1. LA. l.(a).
1.1.A.1.(a).
(a).I.(i).
1.(a).I.(i).(1 ).
D. Check Sheets - When a tariff filing is made with the Commission, an updated Check Sheet accompanies
the tariff filing. The Check Sheet lists the pages contained in the tariff, with a cross reference to the current
revision number. When new pages 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 page if
these are the only changes made to it (i., the format, etc. remain the same, just revised revision levels on some
pages.) The tariff user should refer to the latest Check Sheet to find out if a particular page is the most current
on file with the Commission.

1.4 Limitations on Liability, (Cont'
With respect to Emergency Number 911 Service, (Cont'
When a Customer with a nonpublished telephone number, as defmed herein,
places a call to the emergency 911 service, the Company will release the
name and address of the calling party, where such information can be
determined, to the appropriate local governmental authority responsible for
emergency 911 service upon request of such governmental authority.
subscribing to service under this rate sheet, the Customer acknowledges and
agrees with the release of information as described above.
The included tariff language does not constitute a determination by the Commission
that a limitation of liability imposed by the Company should be upheld in a court of
law. Acceptance for filing by the Commission recognizes that it is a court'
responsibility to adjudicate negligence and consequential damage claims. It is also
the court's responsibility to determine the validity of the exculpatory clause.
Notification of Service-Affecting Activities
The Company will provide the Customer reasonable notification of service-affecting activities
that may occur in normal operation of its business. Such activities may include, but are not
limited to, equipment or facilities additions, removals or rearrangements and routine
preventative maintenance. Generally, such activities are not specific to an individual
Customer but affect many Customers' services. No specific advance notification period is
applicable to all service activities. The Company will work cooperatively with the Customer
to determine the reasonable notification requirements. With some emergency or unplanned
service-affecting conditions, such as an outage resulting from cable damage, notification to
the Customer may not be possible.

Customer Liability for Unauthorized Use of the Network
Unauthorized use of the network occurs when a person or entity that does not have actual, apparent, or
implied authority to use the network, obtains the Company s services provided under this rate sheet.
Customer Liability for Fraud and Unauthorized Use of the Network
The Customer is liable for the unauthorized use of the network obtained through the
fraudulent use of a Company calling card, if such a card is offered by the Company,
or an accepted credit card, provided that the unauthorized use occurs before the

Customer to place calls over the Network and to have the charges for such calls billed
to the Customer s account.
An accepted credit card is any credit card that a cardholder has requested or applied
for and received, or has signed, used, or authorized another person to use to obtain
credit. Any credit card issued as an renewal or substitute in accordance with this
paragraph is an accepted credit card when received by the cardholder.
The Customer must give the Company written or oral notice that an unauthorized
use of a Company calling card or an accepted credit card has occurred or may occur
as a result of loss, and/or theft.
The Customer is responsible for payment of all charges for calling card services
furnished to the Customer or to users authorized by the Customer to use service
provided under this rate sheet, unless due to the negligence of the Company. This
responsibility is not changed due to any use, misuse, or abuse of the Customer
service or Customer-provided equipment by third parties, the Customer s employees,
or the public. The liability of the Customer for unauthorized use of the Network by
credit card fraud will not exceed the lesser of fifty dollars ($50.00) or the amount of
money, property, labor, or services obtained by the unauthorized user before
notification to the Company.

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

disable CW for the duration of an outgoing telephone call. CCW is activated (i., 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 callers 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.

to a different third party. The feature may be used on both outgoing and incoming.

Calling Features
These features are offered subject to availability of suitable facilities. TrinsicBusiness
A La Carte may include the calling features listed below:
Call Forwarding - Fixed - Call Forwarding- Fixed, when activated, redirects
attempted terminating calls to another Customer-specific line. The Customer may
have to activate and deactivate the forwarding function and specify the desired
terminating telephone number during each activation procedure. Call originating
ability is not affected by Call Forwarding-Fixed. 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 is billed for the forwarded leg of the call. Calls
cannot be transferred to an International Direct Distance Dialing number..
Speed Calling - This feature allows a user to dial selected numbers by means of an
abbreviated code. This feature is available in an 8 number capacity. The Speed
Calling list can only accommodate a number consisting of 15 digits or less.
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.

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.

Public Telephone Surcharge
In order to recover the Company s expenses to comply with the FCC's pay telephone compensation
plan effective on October 7, 1997 (FCC 97-371), an undiscountable per call charge is applicable to all
intrastate calls that originate from any pay telephone, not presubscribed to the Company, used to
access Company provided services. This surcharge, which is in addition to standard tariffed usage
charges and any applicable service charges and surcharges associated with service, applies for the use
of the instrument used to access Company provided service and is unrelated to the service accessed
from the pay telephone.
Pay telephones include coin-operated and coinless phones owned by local telephone companies,
independent companies and interexchange carriers. The Public Pay Telephone Surcharge applies to
the initial completed call and any reoriginated call (e., using the "#" symbol). The Public Pay
Telephone Surcharge does not apply to calls placed from pay telephones at which the Customer pays
for service by inserting coins during the progress of the call.
Whenever possible, the Public Pay Telephone Surcharge will appear on the same invoice containing
the usage charges for the surcharged call. In cases where proper pay telephone coding digits are not
transmitted to the Company prior to completion of a call, the Public Pay Telephone Surcharge may be
billed on a subsequent invoice after the Company has obtained information from a carrier that the
originating station is an eligible pay telephone.
