                Term Plan Access Charge Promotion

 

                Beginning April 21, 1995 and ending March 31, 1997, MCI WORLDCOM will offer the following promotion to new and existing customers who allow MCI WORLDCOM to provision their dedicated local access service.  Specifically, MCI WORLDCOM will waive all Access Coordination charges for the duration of a Customer's Access Pricing Plan (APP) or Combined Service and Access Plans (CSAP) commitment.  To qualify, the local access service must consist of dedicated local leased line services provisioned by available MCI WORLDCOM-owned facilities, and must be ordered no later than June 30, 1996, installed prior to March 31, 1997, and subscribed to under an APP or CSAP.

 

                MCI Vision RPP Promotion

 

                Beginning February 1, 1995 and ending October 14, 1995, MCI WORLDCOM will offer the following promotion to existing customers of Metered Use Service Option Q (MCI Vision), or to new customers of MCI Vision who enroll in this promotion between March 1, 1995, and October 14, 1995.  In order to receive the benefits of this promotion, the customer: 1) must be enrolled in an MCI Vision term plan or MCI Customized Business Program; 2) must terminate the existing term plan or program pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Early Termination Charges of the respective plans, as described in Section C‑3.18365 or the Cancellation or Discontinuance Without Liability, as described in Sections C‑3.183751 and C‑3.1841; and 3) must enroll in a new MCI Vision Value Insurance Plan Plus (MCI Vision VIP Plus) or the MCI Vision Worldwide Program with a term and volume commitment equal to, or greater than, the customer's existing plan.  The new term plan will begin on the day after the expiration date of the existing term plan.  MCI Vision non‑term plan customers may also receive the benefits of this promotion.  All customers must enroll in an MCI Vision VIP Plus or MCI Vision Worldwide plan with a start date between February 15, 1995 and October 15, 1995, in order to receive the benefits of this promotion.

 

                For the duration of the plan, MCI Vision customers will be charged the applicable rates and given the discounts specified below.  All other terms and conditions of the term plan will apply.  At any time during the term of the plan, customers may elect to leave the promotion and revert to MCI Vision standard tariffed rates and discounts; however, the customer must maintain an equal or greater term and volume commitment.  Once the customer reverts to MCI Vision standard tariffed term plan rates and discounts, it will not be eligible to receive the benefits of this promotion.  Upon expiration of the new term plan, the customer will revert to the prevailing tariffed rates and discounts at that time.

 

                Once enrolled in this promotion, a customer may increase its volume commitment, but not its term commitment, and it remains eligible to receive the discounts that it received upon enrollment in this promotion.  Customers are not eligible for any other MCI Vision promotions except that they may receive the benefits of installation and fee waivers, the MCI PIC Change Promotion and the MCI Vision PIC Change Credit Promotion.  The benefits of this promotion are not available in connection with SCAs, as described in Section C‑16.  Standard monthly recurring charges, non-recurring charges, access charges, Dedicated Leased Line Service rates, and Operator Service rates apply for all customers enrolled in this promotion.  Qualified Affinity Member Groups who enroll in this promotional plan will not receive the benefits of the Affinity Member Group discounts associated with MCI Vision VIP Plus and MCI Vision Worldwide.   A customer enrolled in the MCI Vision Worldwide for Latin America or the MCI Vision Worldwide for Europe option may not receive the benefits of this promotion.

                The following additional discounts will apply:

 

                                Time of Day Discounts1 ‑ A 20 percent discount will apply, on a call‑by‑call basis, to all inbound and outbound domestic traffic (including MCI Vision 800 Dynamic Routing) occurring during the Evening and Night/Weekend rate periods (i.e. anytime except 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. weekdays).  When a Vision call is established in one rate period and ends in the other, the rate in effect in each rate period applies to the portion of the call occurring during that rate period.  The rate for inbound calls is the rate for the time of day at the terminating location.

 

                                Dedicated Termination Discount - All Vision Switched, Dedicated, and Card Access outbound traffic, excluding calls to Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, which is transmitted between customer designated locations of a Corporate Enterprise and which is terminated by means of dedicated termination facilities will receive a discount of $0.02 per minute.  This discount will be applied before any other discounts.

 

                                Domestic Optimizer Discount:  A discount of 10 percent will be applied to all domestic outbound Vision calls which are made to the single domestic area code with the highest total usage (in dollars) in the period for which a bill is being calculated.  This discount is calculated and applied at the location level.  International and Directory Assistance calls are excluded from this discount.  This discount is calculated on usage to that area code before all other discounts other than the Time of Day and Dedicated Termination Discounts are applied.

 

                                International Optimizer Discount:  A discount of 10 percent will be applied to all international outbound Vision calls made during the peak rate period which are made to the single country with the highest total usage (in dollars) for the period for which a bill is being calculated.  This discount is calculated and applied at the location level.  Domestic and Directory Assistance calls are excluded from this discount.  This discount is calculated on usage to that country before all other discounts other than the Time of Day and the Dedicated Termination Discounts are applied.

 

                        

 

                                                               

 

1               In states where MCI WORLDCOM has an identical discount plan for non-Business Day rates and/or volume discounts, the interstate discount is determined by applying the effective discount rate only to interstate usage billing subject to discount.  In states without an identical discount plan for non-Business Day rates and/or volume discounts, the interstate discount is determined by applying the effective discount rate to both interstate and intrastate usage billing subject to discount.  Customers who subscribe to service through a Qualified Industry Affinity Group or a Commercial Affinity Program Plus (CAP Plus) will receive an additional 5 percent discount on all domestic and international usage in lieu of all other discounts.

                Standard MCI Vision calling card surcharges will apply for MCI Vision Power Rate  domestic and international calling card calls.  Time of Day, Dedicated Termination, Volume Discounts (except as specified above), and Optimizer Discounts, as specified in Sections C‑3.1831 to C-3.1835, will not apply.

 

                Customers participating in this promotion are not eligible to receive the benefits of any other MCI WORLDCOM promotions, except that they may receive the benefits of installation and fee waivers for T‑1 Digital Access installation and the MCI PIC Change Promotion.  The benefits of this promotion are not available in connection with customers subscribing to service through a Special Customer Arrangement (SCA), as described in Section C-16.  Members of Qualified Affinity Member Groups are not eligible to participate in this promotion.   The terms and conditions of this promotion supersede inconsistent terms and conditions elsewhere in this Tariff.

 

                Customers enrolled in this promotion are not eligible to utilize the following features in conjunction with service under the promotion: Proof Positive Savings Guarantee; Access/Call Types ‑ International 800 Remote Access, Access Integration with MCI 900 Service, MCI Prism I, or Vnet Service; ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI); ISDN Primary Rate Interface (PRI); MCI Outbound Switched Digital Service, MCI Vision Switched Data 56 and 64 kbps, MCI 800 Digital Multi-Rate Bearer Service; MCI Vision 800 Digital; Switched 64 kbps Service - Switched Digital Access (SDA); Virtual Network Connection (VNC) Termination to VNC; Outbound Network Features-Remote Exchange; Instant Ringdown; MCI 800 Service Custom Message Announcements; Point of Call Routing; Private Dialing Plans; Direct Termination Overflow; Calling Station Identification; ServiceView; MCI Vision Directed Billing; MCI OneFAX; MCI Vision Card Conference Calling; these 800 Features: MCI Vision 800 Dynamic Routing Feature packages 1, 2, and 3, MCI Vision 800 Answernet, 800 Multimanager, MCI 800 Super Routing plans, Cross-Corporate ID Routing, to MCI Vision 800, or to MCI 800, MCI Vision 800 TrafficView, and MCI Vision Configuration Manager.

 

                Business Downturn Promotion:

 

                Beginning August 30, 1996 and ending January 31, 1997, MCI WORLDCOM will offer the following promotion to existing customers of Metered Use Service Option Q (MCI Vision) who are enrolled in either a Value Insurance Plan (VIP), a Value Insurance Plan Plus (VIP Plus), or a Customized Business Program (CBP).

 

                In the event that: 1) a business downturn beyond the Customer's control reduces the size or scope of its operations and the volume of MCI Vision services required, with the result that the Customer will be unable to meet its Annual Volume Commitment under its Agreement (notwithstanding its best efforts to avoid such a short fall) and 2) The Customer does not otherwise qualify for early termination of its term plan without liability under Sections C‑3.18365, C‑3.183751 or C‑3.1841, then MCI WORLDCOM will offer the Customer a special four‑year VIP Plus or Power Rate term plan with discounts equal to those associated with three‑year VIP Plus or Power Rate term plans, at the customer's applicable Annual Volume Commitment. If the Customer's Total Revenue Commitment (Annual Volume Commitment times the number of years in the Term Commitment) under the four‑year term plan does not equal or exceed the Total Revenue Commitment under the Customer's existing term plan, then the Customer will be further required to repay a percentage of the promotional incentives it has received according to the following formula to be due in the third full month following enrollment in the special four-year plan:

       

                                                                                                                Existing Total Revenue Commitment

                                                                                less                         Portion of existing Agreement Fulfilled

                                                                                less                         New Total Revenue Commitment

                                                                                divided by                Existing Total Revenue Commitment

 

                The Customer will not qualify for any additional term plan promotional incentives as a result of it entering into this new term plan, and further, must agree that MCI WORLDCOM shall be its exclusive provider of long distance services during the term of the new term plan.  If the customer uses any other interexchange telecommunications provider to carry any of its long distance traffic, the customer will be required to pay to MCI WORLDCOM the monthly equivalent of the annual commitment for each month that the customer is in violation of this requirement.

 

                This promotion will not apply to a change resulting from the Customer's decision to: 1) reduce its overall use of telecommunications services; 2) alter its telecommunications network architecture; or, 3) transfer portions of its telecommunications traffic or projected growth to carriers other than MCI.  This promotion also will not apply during the first annual period of a VIP, VIP Plus, or CBP agreement entered into by the customer, and may only be used once during the service term.  The Customer must give MCI WORLDCOM immediate written notice of the business conditions it believes demonstrates eligibility for this promotion.  All terms and conditions of the existing VIP, VIP Plus, or CBP term plan will remain in full force and effect, including, but not limited to, all underutilization and early termination charges applicable to the Customer's existing term plan, until such time as the Customer complies fully with the terms of this promotion.

 

                The benefits of this promotion are not available in connection with Special Customer Arrangements (SCAs) as described in Section C‑16.  Members of Qualified Affinity Member Groups are not eligible to participate in this promotion.  The benefits of this promotion are in lieu of all other term based offerings.

                MCI WORLDCOM Frame Relay Customer Appreciation Promotion

 

                The following promotion will be available to existing domestic customers of Metered Use Service Option GG (MCI WORLDCOM Frame Relay) who currently subscribe to service through an existing domestic MCI WORLDCOM Frame Relay Network Pricing Plan (HPP) with a minimum monthly volume commitment of at least $2000 or who enroll in a new HPP term commitment with a minimum monthly volume commitment of at least $2000 and agree between April 1, 1997, and September 30, 1997, to extend the existing HPP term commitment or to enroll in a new HPP term commitment.

 

                Qualifying customers will receive the following benefit for increasing the HPP term commitment or enrolling in a new HPP term commitment:

 

                1.             Customers who extend an existing domestic HPP term commitment or who enroll in a new HPP term commitment for an additional twenty‑four months (2 years) will be credited an amount equal to one (1) times the customer's minimum monthly volume commitment. Applicable credits will be applied to the customer's third monthly invoice occurring after the HPP service enrollment is extended.

 

                2.             Customers who extend an existing domestic HPP term commitment for thirty‑six or more additional months (3 or more additional years) and customers who enroll in a new  HPP term commitment for thirty-six months will be credited an amount equal to two (2) time the customer's minimum monthly volume commitment.  Applicable credits will be applied to the customer's third full monthly invoice occurring after the HPP service enrollment is extended.

 

                3.             For the purposes of this promotion only, customers extending an existing HPP may become eligible to receive increased HPP term discounts.  The increased HPP discount level is calculated by adding (a) the number of months remaining as part of the pre‑existing HPP term commitment and (b) the number of months in which the HPP term was extended. Any new term discount level will commence on the first full calendar month billing following MCI WORLDCOM’s acceptance of the customer's enrollment in the extended HPP; any new term discount level will not be retroactively applied to previous monthly invoicing.  For example purposes only, a customer who agrees to an extension in the seventh month of a one year HPP, and who extends the term commitment for two more years, will then have made a term commitment of twenty‑nine months (5 months remaining + 24 month service extension = 29 month term commitment).  The customer may then choose to receive HPP discounts associated with the two year volume discount level.

               

                If the customer terminates MCI WORLDCOM Frame Relay service prior to the end of its term, the customer will be billed and required to pay an amount equal to all credits awarded pursuant to this promotion.  This shall not preclude the customer from disconnecting and/or changing individual port and PVC service elements without penalty as long as the HPP minimum volume commitment levels are maintained.  The terms and conditions of the new  HPP will apply to those customers choosing to change their existing commitment or who enroll on a new commitment.

                Customers will receive one credit in each month from the date of the customer's enrollment in this promotion until the date when the non-resold exchange service becomes available in the customer's exchange service area; per-customer credits may not exceed twelve.  The total credit amount will be applied to the customer's invoice within 60 days from the date the customer begins use of exchange service subscribed to in connection with this promotion.  Credits may be applied to interstate and international usage charges.  Credit balances will carry over to invoices in subsequent months until depleted.  The term of service will begin on the date of installation of the customer's exchange service provided under this promotion.

 

                To be eligible for the benefits of this promotion, at the time of enrollment in this promotion, customers must pre‑subscribe to exchange service provided by an MCI WORLDCOM‑affiliated company and must commit to a term of service of one, two, or three years.  In addition, customers may elect an exchange service usage annual volume commitment equal to one of the following amounts: $6,000, $12,000, $24,000, $36,000, $48,000, $60,000, $84,000, $96,000, $120,000, $180,000, $240,000, $300,000, $360,000, $420,000, or, $480,000.  DID number charges, exchange service usage charges, and Local Access charges (for recurring Local Line charges, recurring Local Trunk ‑ Basic charges, recurring Local Trunk ‑ DID) will be calculated in determining satisfaction of the customer's annual volume commitment during the term of service.

 

                If at the end of any annual period of a customer's term of service, the customer has not satisfied its annual volume commitment, the customer will be billed and required to pay the difference between its actual usage in that annual period and its annual volume commitment.

 

                If the customer terminates use of exchange service subscribed to in connection with this promotion prior to the expiration of the customer's term of service, in addition to any underutilization charges the customer will be billed and required to (i) repay all credits received under this promotion and, (ii) pay an early termination charge as follows: 

 

                                The early termination charge for customers who designate an annual volume commitment will equal a percentage of the annual volume commitment for each year remaining in the term of service, based on the length of the term of service and the number of completed months in the customer's term of service, as follows:
