Reciprocal Compensation applies for transport and termination of Local Traffic billable by CBT or Intermedia that a Telephone Exchange Service Customer originates on CBT's or Intermedia's network for termination on the other Party's network. The Parties shall compensate each other for such transport and termination of Local Traffic at the rates provided in the Pricing Schedule; provided, however, that compensation for local traffic will be reciprocal and symmetrical. The Party on whose network the call originates shall pay the Party on whose network the call terminates as follows: (a) Local traffic between the Parties on trunks between Intermedia’s switch and CBT’s tandem switch will be rated as Tandem switched calls (utilizing the tandem switching, tandem transport facility mileage and end office local termination rate elements), and (b) Local traffic on direct trunks between CBT’s end office switches and Intermedia’s switch will be rated as End Office to End Office calls (utilizing the end office local termination rate element).
