Common use of Charges for Interconnection Facilities Clause in Contracts

Charges for Interconnection Facilities. (a) Ameritech expressly reserves its right to bill and collect charges for all Interconnection Facilities which carry Land to Mobile Traffic from Ameritech to Carrier if the Commission, the FCC or a court of competent jurisdiction over the Parties in this state determines that such charges may be assessed. The Parties will abide by any final ruling of the Commission, the FCC or such court on this issue. In the event of such a ruling, the Parties shall amend this Agreement, within thirty (30) days of a written request to do so, in order to provide for the payment of charges for Interconnection Facilities and such amendment shall be effective prospectively from the date of the final and non-appealable order and not retroactively. (b) Ameritech shall provide the Interconnection Facilities necessary to deliver traffic to Carrier’s NPOI. Carrier shall be responsible for providing ten percent (10%) of such Land to Mobile Interconnection Facilities between Ameritech and Carrier. The ten percent (10%) figure represents an agreed upon amount of Land to Mobile non- Ameritech originated and non-Local Traffic between Carrier and Ameritech, taking into consideration the specific network architecture of Carrier, including the significant degree to which Carrier has established direct connections with other carriers for Land to Mobile traffic, the routing of toll free dialing arrangements (e.g., “800”, “888” and “877”) over separate facilities obtained by Carrier, and the geographic area covered by Carrier’s messaging frequencies in relation to MTA boundaries. Accordingly, Carrier shall pay Ameritech ten percent (10%) of Ameritech’s charges for Interconnection Facilities provided by Ameritech at the rates set forth in Schedule 3.2.4, including recurring charges and non-recurring installation charges. Carrier’s liability for these amounts shall not begin until Ameritech’s liability for Transport and Termination under Section 7 begins. The amounts due from Carrier for the Interconnection Facilities hereunder shall be billed and paid on a monthly basis. For Type 2 Interconnection the rates shall be billed on a Type 2A, DS1 basis to reflect Ameritech’s provisioning of circuits on a Type 2A, DS1 level, provided however, that Ameritech shall continue to xxxx Xxxxxxx for existing Type 2A circuits on the basis of the current network configuration between the Parties. Ameritech will provide additional facilities, over and above those Ameritech provides to meet its obligations hereunder, at Xxxxxxx’s request and at Xxxxxxx’s expense at the rates set forth in Schedule 3.2.4, to connect Ameritech Central Offices with additional locations designated by Carrier, unless otherwise mutually agreed.
