Local ServiceCustomers subscribing to Company Local Service will receive Companys standard rates for Local Service as set forth in the Guide or applicable Tariffs and will be eligible to receive the following Interstate Service Credit.
(a) Interstate Service Credit. (i) Lines: Customer shall receive a monthly recurring credit to be applied to Customer's interstate usage charges hereunder as follows: an amount equal to 10% of Customer's Local monthly recurring charges, any feature charges and/or usage charges (if applicable) for Local analog lines for the current monthly billing period at standard Tariff or Guide rates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the amount of any Interstate Service Credit exceed Customer's interstate usage charges for the monthly billing period in which such credit is to be applied. (ii) Trunks: Customer shall receive a monthly recurring credit to be applied to Customer's interstate usage charges hereunder as follows: an amount equal to 10% of Customer's monthly recurring charges (exclusive of EUCL and LNP charges), any feature charges and/or monthly usage charges (if applicable) for Full T-1s of local service to include Local Trunk-Basic, Local Trunk-DID, Local Trunk-2 Way Direct, DID/2 Way Direct Number and Local ISDN-PRI T-1 service for the current monthly billing period at the rates set forth below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the amount of any Interstate Service Credit exceed Customer's interstate usage charges for the monthly billing period in which such credit is to be applied. As set forth in the applicable Tariffs, Customer will receive the following Local Service recurring charges and applicable usage charges on new Full T-1digital trunks and/or ISDN PRI. Monthly recurring charges are inclusive of applicable FCC interstate line charges (EUCL) and LNP charges (which are not discountable), but do not include charges for DID number blocks or PRI feature packages.Metered PlanPromotional monthly recurring Full digital T-1 trunk charge $445.00 per monthPromotional monthly usage rate (first minute) $.0158 per minutePromotional monthly usage rate (each additional minute) $.0095 per minute
Flat PlanPromotional monthly recurring Full digital T-1 trunk charge $800.00 per monthBy way of example, Customers Interstate Service Credit for a single digital Full T-1 trunk subscribed to under the Metered Plan located in Albuquerque, New Mexico (where EUCL is $220.80 and LNP is 92.88) that had 10,001 minutes of usage in a month would be $22.63, calculated as follows: .10 x ($445 minus 220.80 (EUCL) minus 92.88 (LNP)) = .10 x 131.32 = $13.13 plus usage credits. Assuming an average call length of 4 minutes, the credit would apply as follows: (2,501 initial minutes @ .0158 x .10 = $3.95) to account for the first minute of each call; and .10 x ($.0095 x 7,500) = .10 x 71.25 = $7.13 for the remaining 7,500 minutes of usage in the month for a total credit of $13.13 + $3.95 + $7.13 = $24.21 applied against Customers Interstate usage charges for that monthly billing period. Feature charges are extra, but would receive a 10% discount.By way of example, Customers Interstate Service Credit for the same digital Full T-1 Trunk subscribed to under the Flat Plan in Albuquerque, New Mexico would be $48.63, calculated as follows: .10 x ($800 (220.80 + 92.88)) = .10 x 486.32 = $48.63 applied against Customers Interstate usage charges for that monthly period. Feature charges are extra, but would receive a 10% discount._________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Customer will receive an installation waiver for one hundred percent (100%) of Company one-time installation or start-up charges for new Digital T1 Access circuits and Local Service ordered for the Term.
