Shareholder Representative (a) The Shareholders agree to appoint one Person to act as their representative, attorney in fact and proxy with respect to certain matters specified in this Agreement (the "Shareholder Representative").

In the event of the death, resignation or removal of the Shareholder Representative, a new Shareholder Representative shall be appointed by a vote of Majority Holders, such appointment to become effective upon the written acceptance thereof by the new Shareholder Representative. Any failure by the Majority Holders to appoint a new Shareholder Representative upon the death, resignation or removal of the Shareholder Representative shall not have the effect of releasing the Shareholders from any liability under this Agreement. (b) The Shareholder Representative shall have such powers and authority as are necessary to carry out the functions assigned to the Shareholder Representative under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Shareholder Representative will have no obligation to act on behalf of the Shareholders, except as expressly provided herein. The Shareholder Representative will at all times be entitled to rely on any directions received from the Majority Holders. The Shareholder Representative shall, at the expense of the Shareholders, be entitled to engage such counsel, experts and other agents and consultants as they shall deem necessary in connection with exercising their powers and performing their function hereunder and (in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Shareholder Representative) shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the opinions and advice of such Persons. (c) The Shareholder Representative shall not be entitled to any fee, commission or other compensation for the performance of its services hereunder, but shall be entitled to the reimbursement by the Shareholders of all his, her or its fees and expenses incurred as the Shareholder Representative pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof. In connection with this Agreement, and any instrument, agreement or document relating hereto or thereto, and in exercising or failing to exercise all or any of the powers conferred upon the Shareholder Representative hereunder, the Shareholder Representative shall incur no responsibility whatsoever to any Shareholder by reason of any error in judgment or other act or omission performed or omitted hereunder or any such other agreement, instrument or document, excepting only responsibility for any act or failure to act which represents willful misconduct. Each Shareholder shall indemnify, pro rata based upon such holder's percentage interest, the Shareholder Representative against all losses, damages, liabilities, claims, obligations, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys', accountants' and other experts' or consultant's fees and the amount of any judgment against the Shareholder Representative, of any nature whatsoever, arising out of or in connection with any claim, investigation, challenge, action or proceeding or in connection with any appeal thereof, relating to the acts or omissions of the Shareholder Representative hereunder. The foregoing indemnification shall not apply in the event of any action or proceeding which finally adjudicates the liability of the Shareholder Representative hereunder for his or her gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the event of any indemnification hereunder, upon written notice from Shareholder Representative to the Shareholders as to the existence of a deficiency toward the payment of any such indemnification amount, each such holder shall promptly deliver to the Shareholder Representative full payment of his or her ratable share of the amount of such deficiency, in accordance with such Shareholder's percentage interest. In no event shall the Company be responsible for any reimbursement or indemnification of the Shareholder Representative. (d) All of the indemnities, immunities and powers granted to the Shareholder Representative under this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(f) The Company shall have the right to rely conclusively upon all instructions, requests, consents, elections and other actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Shareholder Representative pursuant to this Agreement and any instrument, agreement or document relating hereto, all of which actions or omissions shall be legally binding upon all the Shareholders.

(b) The Company’s stockholders agree that such agency and proxy are coupled with an interest, and are therefore irrevocable without the consent of the Stockholder Representative and will survive the death, incapacity, bankruptcy, dissolution or liquidation of any Company’s stockholder. All decisions and actions by the Stockholder Representative will be binding upon the Company’s stockholders, and no Company stockholder will have the right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same. The Stockholder Representative will have no duties or obligations hereunder except those specifically set forth herein and such duties and obligations will be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement. The Company’s stockholders will jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless the Stockholder Representative against all Liabilities incurred by the Stockholder Representative in connection with the performance of his, her or its duties as the Stockholder Representative, including, without limitation, any action, suit or proceeding to which the Stockholder Representative is made a party by reason of the fact that the Stockholder Representative is or was acting as the Stockholder Representative under this Agreement. Neither the Stockholder Representative nor any agent employed by the Stockholder Representative will incur any Liability to any Company stockholder relating to the performance of Stockholder Representative’s duties hereunder except for actions or omissions constituting fraud or bad faith. The Stockholder Representative will have no Liability in respect of any action, claim or proceeding brought against the Stockholder Representative by any Company stockholder if the Stockholder Representative took or omitted taking any action in good faith. (c) The provisions of this Section 10.1 will be binding on the executors, heirs, legal representatives, personal representatives, successor trustees, and successors of each Company Stockholder, and any references in this Agreement to a “Company Stockholder” means and includes the successors to such Person’s rights hereunder, whether pursuant to a testamentary disposition, the Legal Requirements of descent and distribution or otherwise. (d) If the Stockholder Representative shall die, become disabled or otherwise be unable or unwilling to fulfill his, her or its responsibilities as agent of the Company’s stockholders, then a majority in interest of the Company’s stockholders (based on the ownership of the Company Stock set forth on Schedule 1.4) shall appoint a successor agent for the Company Stockholders. The Person serving as the Stockholder Representative may be replaced from time to time by the holders of a majority in interest of the Company Stockholders (based on the ownership of the Company Stock set forth on Schedule 1.4). In either case, the successor Stockholder Representative shall promptly notify Parent in writing of the identity of such successor Stockholder Representative. Any such successor shall become the “Stockholder Representative” for purposes of this Agreement.

Order Coordination and Order Coordination-Time Specific 2.1.9.1 “Order Coordination” (OC) allows BellSouth and Lightyear to coordinate the installation of the SL2 Loops, Unbundled Digital Loops (UDL) and other Loops where OC may be purchased as an option, to Lightyear’s facilities to limit end user service outage. OC is available when the Loop is provisioned over an existing circuit that is currently providing service to the end user. OC for physical conversions will be scheduled at BellSouth’s discretion during normal working hours on the committed due date. OC shall be provided in accordance with the chart set forth below. 2.1.9.2 “Order Coordination – Time Specific” (OC-TS) allows Lightyear to order a specific time for OC to take place. BellSouth will make every effort to accommodate Lightyear’s specific conversion time request. However, BellSouth reserves the right to negotiate with Lightyear a conversion time based on load and appointment control when necessary. This OC-TS is a chargeable option for all Loops except Unbundled Copper Loops (UCL) and Universal Digital Channel (UDC), and is billed in addition to the OC charge. Lightyear may specify a time between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. (location time) Monday through Friday (excluding holidays). If Lightyear specifies a time outside this window, or selects a time or quantity of Loops that requires BellSouth technicians to work outside normal work hours, overtime charges will apply in addition to the OC and OC-TS charges. Overtime charges will be applied based on the amount of overtime worked and in accordance with the rates established in the Access Services Tariff, Section E13.2, for each state. The OC-TS charges for an order due on the same day at the same location will be applied on a per Local Service Request (LSR) basis.
