a. Customer Premises Equipment
The Customer Premises Equipment is the router located at the customer location . The customer will provide the Customer Premises
Equipment in the
Port+Access and Port Only service options , while DIA service will include the router in Port+Access+CPE Service options .
• Customer Provided Router
If the customer provides the router, AT &T will assist the customer in configuring the equipment to communicate with the BMF .
DIA Service support
includes providing IP addresses . Additional support will be addressed on an as-needed basis .
Billing is initiated within 24 hours of service activation .
Under the customer provided CPE scenario (Port+Access or Port Only service options) , all monitoring , management, troubleshooting
, repair and/or
replacement of the customer premises equipment will be the customer's responsibility.
• DIA provided router
When DIA service includes the router, the router choice is generally based on transport service type and speed of connection
. The routers will be
configured for static routing .
AT &T will retain ownership of and is responsible for all installation , configuration , monitoring ,
management, troubleshooting , repair, and
replacement of the equipment. However, the customer is responsible for safeguarding the equipment against theft and damage, and
must provide
a suitable environment for the operation of the router. In addition , the customer is encouraged to provide out of band
(OOB ) access to the router.
This OOB access must be dedicated for use in accessing the customer premise router from the AT &T Network Operations
Center to aid in
expeditious troubleshooting and resolution , and to minimize unneeded router replacements .

) . There is a BMF in
every LATA throughout the current AT&T Southeast nine state service area.
d. "Service" shall mean the service(s ) as identified and set forth in this Service Description . AT&T reserves the right at
any time during the term of
customer's Agreement for the Service to modify the Service and/or to migrate customers to any comparable service AT&T or another
AT&T affiliate
may have at that time. If AT&T chooses to migrate the customer, AT&T will provide the customer with prior written (email) notice
to that effect. In
the unlikely event that any such migration would have a material adverse effect on the customer's ability to use the Service,
and AT&T or another
AT&T affiliate cannot correct or remove such adverse effect, the customer will be permitted to terminate its Agreement
for the Service without
payment of any early termination charges that would otherwise be applicable on account of such termination .
2) Network Architecture
BellSouth Regional Internet Backbone (BRIB)
BRIB is the regional backbone that connects DIA customers to other BMFs and DIA customer locations within the AT&T Southeast region

If > DS1 and < 50M , or MetroE DIA 10M , 20M , or 50M (electrical) , it is the Transmit /Receive Coax cable jack
If > Fractional OC3 , or MetroE DIA 10M , 20M , 50M (optical) , or MetroE DIA 100M , 250M or 500M , it is the "pair of fibers"
4) Billing Options
Dedicated Internet Access (DIA) customers have a choice of billing methodologies . Tiered and Flat Rate monthly recurring
charge billing plans are
available for most Service Types and most Access Methods . With the Burstable plan , a customer whose Access Method is Private
Line may choose to
be billed either a tiered/flat rate monthly recurring fee or to be billed a variable amount based upon usage. ATM DIA is burstable
billing only. MetroE DIA
is only available in Tiered/Flat Rate billing only.
a. Usage Determination for Burstable
To calculate a customer's usage for a billing period , AT&T will poll the BMF router where the customer's service is
terminated , taking measurements
every 5 minutes for both inbound and outbound traffic , retaining the higher number for each 5-minute interval . These measurements
, collected for a
billing period , will then be ordered from high to low, the top 5 percent of measures will be eliminated and the next
highest number (95th percentile) will
become the usage number to be multiplied by a per megabit price. The price per megabit will be based on :
95th Percentile of usage
• Contract Term
• Service Type
Access Method
If any port connection is placed in or removed from service during a monthly invoice period , the 95th percentile result for such
port shall be pro-rated for
the number of days which such port was in service.
The Burstable product is only available using Private Line or ATM as the transport (DSI-OC12)

6) Service Access Transports
Frame Relay Access for DIA
The Frame Relay access method for DIA is designed to meet customer requirements for Internet connectivity with DS1 , DS3,
Fractional DS1 , and
Fractional DS3. Port Only, Port+Access ( Customer Provided Equipment) , and Port+Access +CPE service options are
available. Frame Relay
service provides a dedicated port connected to a PVC from the customer premises over the AT&T Frame Relay network to the BMF
. Frame Relay
Port Only is required to be full Committed Information Rate (CIR) .
Customers purchasing Port+Access and Port Only Service Options for Frame Relay DS3 and Fractional Frame Relay DS3 must
provide Kentrox
emulation on customer owned CPE . The Kentrox emulation provides for the "choking" of the 45M when less bandwidth is
required (i .e. , 6M , 9M ,
12M ) .
SMARTRing® service Customers can provision Frame Relay DIA (either Port+Access+CPE or Port+Access Service options) over
their existing
SMARTRing® service. The SMARTRing® service requires a Shared Network Agreement (SNA) or similar arrangement designated by
AT&T , to
allow the DIA service to be mapped across the ring . The DIA service does not include or provide the SMARTRing®
service itself. The use of
SMARTRing® interfaces replaces a portion of the local loop normally associated with the DIA Port+Access +CPE and Port+Access offerings .
Availability
Frame Relay access to DIA service is available in all tier I and II BMFs .
Frame Relay DIA can be ordered using tiered/flat rate billing .
For Frame Relay DIA services equal to and above 12Mbps , a Service Availability Check (SAC ) will be conducted during
the pre-sales process to
determine if/when facilities are/will be available within the target BMF .
Multi-Link Frame Relay DIA (MLFR)
MLFR DIA is designed for customers who are not served with fiber access facilities (and therefore cannot receive a DS3 circuit)
yet their Internet
bandwidth requirements exceed that of a single DS1 circuit. The service provides the customer with a dedicated connection
to the Internet in
multiple DS1 ( 1 .536 Mbps) increments (3M , 6M and 9M ). MLFR Dedicated Internet Access is available with the Port+Access+CPE
Service Option
and Port +Access+CPE over SMARTRing® only. 9M MLFR will not be offered for sale after 4/1 /2007 .
Availability
MLFR DIA can be ordered using tiered/flat rate billing .

Private Line DIA
Private Line DIA service gives business customers a full-time dedicated connection from their customer premise to the Internet.
The customer is
connected to the nearest BellSouth Managed Facility ( BMF) directly with a private local loop circuit. Port+Access +CPE , Port+Access+CPE
over
SMARTRing@, Port+Access , Port+Access over SMARTRing@, and Port Only service options are available with Private Line DIA. Unlike
Frame
Relay, the Private Line access price is based on mileage from the customer's premise to the BMF .
SMARTRing@ service Customers are able to provision Private Line DIA (either Port+Access +CPE or Port+Access Service
options) over their
existing SMARTRing@ service. The SMARTRing@ service requires a Shared Network Agreement (SNA) or similar arrangement designated
by
AT &T to allow the DIA service to be mapped across the ring . This DIA service does not include or provide the SMARTRing@ service
itself. The use
of SMARTRing@ interfaces replaces a portion of the local loop normally associated with the DIA Port+Access + CPE and Port+Access offerings
Availability
Private Line service is available in most BMF's . Private line can be ordered using either the flat rate or burstable billing method .
For Private Line DIA services equal to and above 12Mbps , a Service Availability Check (SAC ) will be conducted during the pre-sales process to
determine if/when facilities are/will be available within the target BMF .
Metro Ethernet DIA (MetroE DIA)
This service will enable customers to connect to the Internet at various Metro Ethernet speeds . MetroE DIA is available
as Port+Access+ CPE ,
Port+Access and Port Only service options .
When DIA is used with Metro Ethernet Premium service, packets originating from a particular Customer are identified by use of a
Virtual Local Area
Network number (VLAN Tag) that is assigned by AT&T when the service is provisioned . The VLAN tag is embedded in
each ethernet packet
received from the Customer and serves to identify the source of the packet to AT&T . The requirement to identify MetroE DIA
Customers by VLAN
Tag requires that the data transport service connecting to the BMF conform to the following requirements :
1 . The Metro Ethernet Service ordered from AT&T must be Metro Ethernet Premium service equipped with Q-Forwarding . Q-Forwarding
is an
optional Metro Ethernet Premium feature that adds support for VLAN tagging to the standard Metro Ethernet Premium service.
2 . If a Customer already uses an AT&T Metro Ethernet service that does not include VLAN tagging , (i .e. Basic Metro
Ethernet service) , and
one or more of the existing locations desire to add DIA services , then all locations served by that service
must be upgraded to the Metro
Ethernet Premium service.
3 . The CPE equipment effecting the ethernet connection at the Customer Premises to the Metro Ethernet service must support
VLAN tagging
via the 802 . 1Q protocol . (e.g . a Cisco 2821 router or equivalent). When a Port+Access of Port Only configuration
is ordered , the Customer
must provide compatible CPE and configure it according to the VLAN tags that will be assigned by AT&T during the
ME DIA provisioning
process .
Customers providing their own AT&T Metro Ethernet transport to the Port Only Service option must purchase rate elements
for Premium Fixed
Metro Ethernet speeds 10M , 20M , 50M , 100M2 250M , or 500M , plus any additional mileage charges required to connect
the customer premise to
the closest equipped Metro Ethernet switch Central Office. Customer provided routers must be VLAN-tagging capable for
Metro Ethernet DIA
service . All dedicated , point-to-point transport services used to provide access to the DIA service are provided via
the FCC jurisdiction tariffs or
Guidebook.
Availability
A Service Availability Check (SAC ) will be conducted during the pre-sales process to determine if/when facilities are/will
be available within the target
BMF . A SAC is required for all MetroE DIA orders .
Metro Ethernet DIA Service can be ordered using either tiered/flat rate billing . Burstable billing is not available at this time.
Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) DIA
Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM ) access method for DIA is designed to meet the requirements for Internet connectivity for customers
who have
existing ATM networks . The Port+Access +CPE and Port+Access options are not available for ATM DIA; the customer must obtain
their own ATM
circuit separately, and DIA service will map an ATM Port Only across that circuit. ATM is only available with Burstable billing .
These services require an existing ATM connection from the customer premise over the AT&T ATM network to the BMF .
Availability
ATM DIA is available in many BMF's , but must be checked before service order. For ATM DIA services equal to or
above 12Mbps , a Service
Availability Check (SAC) will be conducted during the pre-sales process to determine if/when facilities are/will be available within the target BMF
.

7) DIA Diversity Solutions
To better serve some customers ' needs , Dedicated Internet Access ( DIA) customers may now purchase a Diversity
Solution Product to enhance
diversity ( redundancy) at specific assignments and attributes for their Internet access .
Diverse Solutions are designed for customers who have a need for continuous / fault tolerant Internet Access . While Diversity Solutions will
increase the
likelihood of non-interrupted Internet Access, this product cannot guarantee continuous and non-interrupted 100% Internet Access availability. Diversity
Solutions are designed to provide customers with a Primary Access Solution to the Internet that will automatically fail-over
to a Secondary Access
Solution to the Internet should a trouble on the Primary Service interrupt the customer's connectivity.
a) Diversity Options
DIA Router Diversity Solution provides the customer two distinct DIA circuits achieving Internet connectivity through access to
( 1 ) a router in a BMF
(BellSouth Managed Facility) in case of the Primary Circuit, and (2) a different router in the same BMF in the case of the Secondary
Circuit. Traffic will be
routed / managed based on weighted static routes to the same BMF on the Diverse Routers . With this option , there will only be
one router located at the
customer premise, but the circuit will connect in thru diverse routers at the BMF . DIA Router Diversity Solution provides one
router at the customer's
location , if purchased in the Port+Access +CPE service type. The customer may provide a second router.
Router Primary Router
.r
Custcmer BI»tF
Rcuter Secondary Router
■ Service Types
The customer's primary circuit and secondary circuit have to be the same DIA Service Type. It
means that both circuits will have to be
Port+Access +CPE , Port+Access or Port Only Service Type.
• Service Speeds
The customer's primary circuit and secondary circuit do not have to be the same size; however, it is recommended that the secondary
circuit be at least
one half the size of the primary circuit. The customer should size the secondary (fail over) circuit so that the secondary circuit
is able to send / receive all
critical traffic in the event the primary service is down .
The Secondary Circuit, in all cases , must be less than or equal to the Primary Circuit.
■ Service Transport
It is recommended that the customer choose different access types (e.g . , Frame Relay and Private Line), rather than both
the same access types , to
improve the level of diversity from the customer premises to the BMF .
■ Service Level Agreements
There is no change to SLAB and Service Level Credits for the following SLAB :
• Network Availability - target 100% for Primary Service and 100% for Secondary Service
Backbone Latency - target 55ms for Primary Service and 55ms for Secondary Service
• Packet Loss - target . 5% for the Primary Service and .5% for the Secondary Service
Customers will be evaluated for SLA qualified events on the Primary Service and SLA qualified events on the Secondary Service.
SLA Credits will be
calculated on each service, Primary Service and / or the Secondary Service and on the billed amount for each service for
the month in which the SLA
Credit was earned , whether derived by flat or usage billing.
The Installation Date SLA will be modified as follows :
The identified installation interval for the Primary Service and the Secondary Service will be compared , and the longest
installation interval will be used
to qualify a customer to receive an Installation Date SLA. If AT&T has caused the installation date for the longest installation
interval to be missed , and
the customer has been charged an installation fee, 100% of the installation fee will be refunded .
8) Features
IP Addresses
The customer can obtain IP addresses from AT&T or can obtain their own IP addresses from ARIN . The customer
may also bring IP addresses
previously used from another service provider's IP address space with the written permission of that provider . Although not
recommended , a customer
may be able to obtain up to 16 Class C IP address from AT&T . . AT&T requires the customer to have immediate need
for 80% of the addresses
requested , and they must be able to justify use of 80% of the addresses at all times.
CON FI DENT IAL/PROPRIETARY — NOT FOR DISCLOSURE WITHOUT WRITTEN PERMISSION
Version : 04/2007 Page 6 of 14
Created On : February 20, 2008 CCP-33130
The customer's initial request for addresses occurs during the ordering process . To request additional addresses , the customer
should contact the
AT&T Internet Services Management group , who will gather information and evaluate the request. Adequate utilization of any addresses
already issued
must be documented before additional addresses will be released .
Additional details about IP Addressing can be found at the ARIN web site: http ://vwvw.arin . net/
Domain Name Registration
AT&T offers DIA customers the option of either registering their new domain name directly with InterNIC , or having AT&T register
the domain name for
them . AT &T will register up to three new, single domain names as part of the DIA service for new customers during the installation process .
Domain Name Service ( DNS)
Primary DNS service is an optional offering to DIA customers where alphanumeric domain names are mapped to IP addresses ,
for ease of use for
navigating web sites .
Secondary DNS mirrors the information located on the primary DNS server, and acts as a backup source of addresses in the event
the primary server is
unreachable
WebStats
Web Stats is a Web based customer network reporting feature that allows customer to monitor their historical network usage
statistics online. This
provides an excellent opportunity for customers to visualize the usage and performance of their Internet connection . Web Stats are offered
as part of the
standard service for all Frame Relay, Frame Relay MLFR , Metro Ethernet, and Private Line DIA customers .
Customers can access statistical information regarding their Internet connection . Network samples are taken every five to fifteen
minutes by the network
statistics system and rolled up each night to create daily, weekly and monthly reports . These
reports are then hosted on a web site
(htto7//webstats BellSouth . neVmns/) for the customer to view.
Intelligent PVC (IPVC)
Intelligent PVCs are Frame Relay PVCs that continuously monitor the customer network primary links . If the connectivity from the AT&T
network to the
BMF's primary router fails , the PVC will detect the failure. Within 6 to 60 seconds , the Intelligent PVC will detect the
outage and automatically reroute
service to the secondary router. Once the primary router starts working again , the Intelligent PVC will automatically reroute traffic
back to the primary
router. The Intelligent PVC Optional Feature does not guarantee 100% Internet availability to the customer.
Intelligent PVC , optional feature, will benefit customers by:
• Provides the customer with BMF router diversity for Internet access
• Eliminates added expense of provisioning two local access loops
• Provides more uptime without a disruption of service
Network Address Translation (NAT)
NAT , an optional feature for DIA Port+Access+CPE Services except Port+Access+CPE Diverse Solutions , enables a customer's private
network (non-
registered IP addresses ) to translate into public address space and connect to the Internet. NAT tables are defined within
the Customer's Premises
Router. NAT benefits customers by:
• Providing some additional security by limiting internal address exposure to the global Internet (specifically, user
PCs will not be reachable
inbound from the Internet, only statically NATed hosts will be reachable from the Internet).
• Allowing for addressing efficiencies and ,
• Conserving IP addresses
Two NAT Models are offered :
• Static Address Translation - Customer may establish a many-to-one mapping between local and global address , or
Customer may configure
Static address translations to the port level , using remaining IP addresses for other translations . In this scenario, only
the customer's Hosts
are mapped and "reachable" from the Internet; the Hosts then communicate with the customer's internal network (PCs) .
• Port Address Translation (PAT) - (also known as "overload" ) Customer may map several internal addresses to one.
When using PAT , traffic
will attempt to engage the original source port; if the source port is fully utilized , PAT will cause the traffic to find the
first available port. (same
as above)
Customers will be limited to the number of IP address on their LAN with NAT translation to a /24 block (254 usable addresses ) .
A customer may request
additional IP addresses with NAT translation .
Note: The Network Address Translation feature is not supported for DIA Diversity Solutions. Cisco IDS NAT cannot be used with
Hot Standby Routing
Protocol (HSRP). In DIA Diversity Solutions , HSRP is used in the Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) to allow a fail-over to the
secondary CPE router
in the event the primary router fails .

the affected Services (i .e. , the
portion (s ) of the Services directly made unavailable as a result of the outage(s) in question ) for each cumulative hour

within 120 days after
the date of the report from AT&T giving notice that an SLA objective was missed . If Customer's request for a credit was in
error, Customer may be

attachment to the Agreement. This Attachment shall have the same term as the Agreement . If there are any
inconsistencies between the Agreement and this Attachment with respect to the Service for which E- rate funding is
sought , the terms and conditions of this Attachment shall control .
TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO E-RATE FUNDED PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
Customer has represented that it intends to seek funding through the Federal Universal Service
Fund program known as " E-Rate " for some or all of the Services or Service Components
purchased under the Agreement. E -Rate is administered by the Schools and Libraries Division
(" SLD " ) of the Universal Service Fund Administrative Company ( " USAC " ) (Sometimes collectively
or individually referred to herein as " USAC/SLD " ) . The Federal Communications Commission
(" FCC " ) has promulgated regulations that govern the participation in the E-Rate program . Both
Parties agree to adhere to FCC regulations as well as the rules established by SLD and USAC
regarding participation in the E -Rate program . The Parties further agree :
1 . Reimbursement of USAC/SLD . If USAC/SLD seeks reimbursement from AT&T of E- Rate funds as a
result of Customer' s failure to comply with the E-Rate rules or regulations , including Customer delays in
submitting required forms or contracts ; or, if USAC/SLD determines that Services which it had previously
approved for discounts are not eligible and funds must be returned (a " ComAd") (other than as the result of
AT&T' s failure to comply with the E-Rate requirements) , then Customer shall reimburse AT&T for any such
funds AT&T must return to USAC/SLD within ninety (90) days of notice from USAC/SLD seeking
reimbursement . In addition , Customer agrees and acknowledges that a determination of ineligibility does
not affect the obligations set forth in the Agreement , including those obligations related to payments and
early termination fees .
2 . Eligibility of Products and Services. The eligibility or ineligibility of products or services for E- Rate funding
is solely the responsibility of the USAC/SLD and/or the FCC . AT&T makes no representations or warranties
regarding such eligibility .
3 . Service Substitutions . Customer acknowledges that USAC/SLD funding commitments are based upon
the products , services and locations set forth in the Form 471 and that any modification to the products and
services and/or the locations at which the products or services are to be installed and/or provided , requires
Customer to file a service substitution with USAC/SLD , seeking permission to receive alternative service or
receive the service to an alternative location . If Customer intends to make any such service substitutions ,
then Customer agrees to pursue them , and file any and all requisite documentation , diligently . AT&T will
provide Services and Service Components only as approved by the SLD and may suspend activities
pending approval of service substitution requests .
4 . Requested Information . If requested , Customer will promptly provide AT&T with final copies of the
following E- Rate-related materials (including all attachments) prepared by or for Customer: (i ) Form 471 and
Item 21 Attachment ; if appropriate , (ii ) Form 486 ; (iii) Form 500 ; (iv) Service Substitution Request
; (v)
Service Certification Form ; and , (vi) Form 472- BEAR . If the Customer issues purchase orders , Customer
shall clearly delineate between eligible and non-eligible Services on those orders .
5 . Representations Warranties and Indemnities . Each Party represents and warrants that it has and will
comply with all laws and the requirements applicable to the E- Rate Program . In addition
to any
indemnification obligations set forth in the Agreement and to the extent permitted by law , each Party agrees
to indemnify and hold harmless the other Party (its employees , officers , directors and agents , and its parents
and affiliates under common control) from and against all third party claims (including FCC or USAC/SLD
claims) and related loss , liability , damage and expense (including reasonable attorney' s fees) arising out of
the indemnifying Party's violation of the E- Rate Requirements or breach of the representations , warranties ,
