Interconnection Arrangement Clause Samples
The Interconnection Arrangement clause defines the terms and conditions under which two or more parties' networks or systems are physically and technically linked to enable the exchange of data, services, or communications. This clause typically outlines the technical standards, responsibilities for maintenance, and procedures for establishing and maintaining the interconnection, such as specifying connection points, required equipment, and service levels. Its core practical function is to ensure seamless interoperability between different networks or systems, thereby facilitating efficient communication and minimizing disputes over technical or operational responsibilities.

Interconnection Arrangement. The cellular networks of each of the Target Companies and the Group interconnect with the fixed line network and cellular networks of CMCC in other regions. In May 2000, the Company entered into the Roaming Agreement with CMCC which applies to the six existing operating subsidiaries of the Company. This agreement is valid for two years from 1 April 1999 and will be automatically renewed on an annual basis unless either party notifies the other of its intention to terminate in writing at least three months prior to expiration of the term. Under this agreement, with regard to inter-provincial roaming, when the roaming subscriber places a call from a roaming location, the operator of the visited network receives all long distance calling charges, if any, and when the roaming subscriber receives a call at a roaming location, the network operator with whom the subscriber is registered retains all long distance calling charges, if any. International long distance calling charges incurred by an international cellular subscriber making an international long distance call while roaming in the areas in mainland China where the Group operates are collected by CMCC and are credited to the Group. The Group will make the necessary settlement with the relevant telecommunications operators in mainland China. CMCC also collects a 15% surcharge on such international long distance calling charges from the international mobile communications operators and shares such surcharge equally with the Group. When the Group's subscribers roam internationally, the Group will collect the international long distance calling charges, if any, together with a 15% surcharge from its subscribers and will pay the international long distance calling charges together with half of the surcharge collected to CMCC, which will make the necessary settlement with the international mobile communications operators concerned. The existing arrangements were arrived at after arm's length commercial negotiations between the parties and after taking into account the guidelines laid down by the relevant tariff regulatory authorities. The transactions with the Group pursuant to the Roaming Agreement were approved by the Independent Shareholders at an extraordinary general meeting of the Company held on 16 June 2000.
