Common use of Compensation on Traffic to INP'ed Numbers Clause in Contracts

Compensation on Traffic to INP'ed Numbers. The Parties agree that, under INP, transport and terminating compensation on calls to INP'ed numbers should be received by each Customer's chosen LEC as if each call to the Customer had been originally addressed by the caller to a telephone number bearing an NPA-NXX directly assigned to the Customer's chosen LEC. In order to accomplish this objective where INP is employed, the Parties shall utilize the process set forth in this Section 13.7, whereby transport and terminating compensation on calls subject to INP will be passed from the Party (the “Performing Party”) which performs the INP to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”) for whose Customer the INP is provided. 13.7.1 The Parties shall individually and collectively track and quantify INP traffic between their networks based on the CPN of each call by identifying CPNs which are INP'ed numbers. The Receiving Party shall charge the Performing Party for each minute of INP traffic at the INP Traffic Rate specified in Section 13.7.3 in lieu of any other compensation charges for terminating such traffic. 13.7.2 By the Interconnection Activation Date in each LATA, the Parties shall jointly estimate for the prospective year, based on historic data of all traffic in the LATA, the percentages of such traffic that, if dialed to telephone numbers bearing NPA-NXXs directly assigned to a Receiving Party (as opposed to the INP'ed number), would have been subject to (i) Reciprocal Compensation (“Recip Traffic”), (ii) intrastate FGD charges (“Intra Traffic”), or (iii) interstate FGD charges (“Inter Traffic”). On the date which is six (6) months after the Interconnection Activation Date, and thereafter on each succeeding six (6)-month anniversary of such Interconnection Activation Date, the Parties shall establish new INP traffic percentages to be applied in the prospective six (6)-month period, based on actual INP traffic percentages from the preceding six (6)-month period.

The Parties agree that, under INP, transport and terminating compensation on calls to INP'ed numbers should be received by each Customer's chosen LEC as if each call to the Customer had been originally addressed by the caller to a telephone number bearing an NPA-NXX directly assigned to the Customer's chosen LEC. In order to accomplish this objective where INP is employed, the Parties shall utilize the process set forth in this Section 13.7, whereby transport and terminating compensation on calls subject to INP will be passed from the Party (the “Performing Party”) which performs the INP to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”) for whose Customer the INP is provided. 13.7.1 XIII.7.1 The Parties shall individually and collectively track and quantify INP traffic between their networks based on the CPN of each call by identifying CPNs which are INP'ed numbers. The Receiving Party shall charge the Performing Party for each minute of INP traffic at the INP Traffic Rate specified in Section 13.7.3 in lieu of any other compensation charges for terminating such traffic. 13.7.2 XIII.7.2 By the Interconnection Activation Date in each LATA, the Parties shall jointly estimate for the prospective year, based on historic data of all traffic in the LATA, the percentages of such traffic that, if dialed to telephone numbers bearing NPA-NXXs directly assigned to a Receiving Party (as opposed to the INP'ed number), would have been subject to (i) Reciprocal Compensation (“Recip Traffic”), (ii) intrastate FGD charges (“Intra Traffic”), or (iii) interstate 6275755.2 101408 910C 96252093 FGD charges (“Inter Traffic”). On the date which is six (6) months after the Interconnection Activation Date, and thereafter on each succeeding six (6)-month anniversary of such Interconnection Activation Date, the Parties shall establish new INP traffic percentages to be applied in the prospective six (6)-month period, based on actual INP traffic percentages from the preceding six (6)-month period. The Parties may agree to adopt a different methodology to calculate INP traffic percentages, including identifying components different from or in addition to those set forth in this Section 13.7.2. 13.7.3 XIII.7.3 The INP Traffic Rate shall be equal to the sum of: (Recip Traffic percentage times the Reciprocal Compensation Rate set forth at Item II of the Pricing Schedule) plus (Intra Traffic percentage times the Receiving Party's effective intrastate FGD rates) plus (Inter Traffic percentage times the Receiving Party's effective interstate FGD rates). Interstate and intrastate FGD rates shall be calculated utilizing the effective interstate and intrastate carrier common line (CCL) rates, residual interconnection charge (RIC) rate elements, local switching (LS) rate elements, one-half the local transport termination (LTT) rate elements, and one-half the local transport facility (LTF) rate elements (assuming a five (5)-mile LTF).

Compensation on Traffic to INP'ed Numbers. The Parties agree that, under INP, transport and terminating compensation on calls to INP'ed numbers should be received by each Customer's chosen LEC as if each call to the Customer had been originally addressed by the caller to a telephone number bearing an NPA-NXX directly assigned to the Customer's chosen LEC.

Interstate and intrastate FGD rates shall be calculated utilizing the effective interstate and intrastate carrier common line (CCL) rates, residual interconnection charge (RIC) rate elements, 8822090.1 102708 1111C 96252093 local switching (LS) rate elements, one-half the local transport termination (LTT) rate elements, and one-half the local transport facility (LTF) rate elements (assuming a five (5)-mile LTF).
