Shared Caged Collocation. 4.1.2.1 (a) Upon request, SBC-13STATE Ameritech shall provide Collocator Requesting Carrier Shared Caged Collocation in any Unused Space. 4.1.2.1.1 A Collocator . "Shared Caged Collocation" is caged Physical Collocation space shared by Requesting Carrier and one or more competitive Local Exchange Carriers ("CLEC") pursuant to terms and conditions agreed upon by such carriers. Requesting Carrier may request that SBC-13STATE Ameritech provide Shared Caged Collocation via (i) a new request for Physical Collocation whereby the Collocator carrier requesting such space allocates the requested space among the number of Collocators carriers initially requesting such space ("New Shared Collocation") or (ii) a request by Collocator Requesting Carrier to enter into a sublease arrangement with another Resident Collocators(s) CLEC in CollocatorRequesting Carrier's existing Physical Collocation ("Subleased Shared Collocation"). In each Shared Caged Collocation arrangement, SBC-13STATE’s Ameritech's single point of contact (SPOC) with respect to such arrangement (other than billing of Preparation Charges as described in subsection (b) below) shall be -------------- referred to as the "Primary Collocator". For New Shared Collocation, the Primary Collocator shall be the single Collocator carrier that submits the request for New Shared Collocation on behalf of the other Resident Collocators (as defined below)Collocators. For Subleased Shared Collocation, the Primary Collocator shall be the Collocator carrier that originally requested and occupied such space and is the sublessor in such arrangement. For purposes of this sectionArticle XII, each Collocator carrier (including Resident Collocator(s) Requesting Carrier and the ----------- Primary Collocator) to a Shared Caged Collocation arrangement is sometimes referred to as a "Resident Collocator". An order for Shared Caged Collocation shall include blanket letters of authorization (A) signed by the Primary Collocator that authorize each other Resident Collocator to utilize the Connecting Facility Assignments associated with the Primary Collocator and (B) signed by each Resident Collocator that authorize the Primary Collocator to request and place firm orders for Shared Caged Collocation and facilities on behalf of such Resident Collocators. 4.1.2.1.2 New Shared Collocation is available in minimum increments of fifty (50) square feet (per caged space dimensions, not per Collocator). Space totaling less than fifty (50) square feet will be provided where technically feasible. Resident Collocators shall request New Shared Collocation from SBC-13STATE in a single application. The Primary Collocator shall submit a request and any subsequent order for New Shared Collocation. The Collocator must use a contractor/vendor to perform the necessary preparation activities within the Collocator’s Physical Collocation Space including the construction of the cage and any physical security arrangements, if applicable; provided, however, any such contractor/vendor shall be subject to the prior written approval of SBC- 13STATE, such Physical Collocation Space preparation activities shall be in accordance with all approved plans and specifications and coordinated with SBC-13STATE, and the Collocator shall be solely responsible for all charges of any such contractor/vendor. The Collocator must provide a cage enclosure (not including a top), cable rack and support structure inside the cage, lighting, receptacles, cage grounding, cage sign and door key set. SBC-13STATE will prorate the Preparation Charges incurred by SBC-13STATE to condition the space for Collocation use among the Resident Collocators utilizing the New Shared Collocation space, by determining the total preparation charges to make that space available and allocating that charge to each Resident Collocator based on the percentage attributable to each Resident Collocator as provided on the Collocation order by the Primary Collocator, provided that the percentage attributable to the Resident Collocators in a New Shared Collocation space equals in the aggregate one hundred percent (100%). SBC- 13STATE will prorate the charge for site conditioning and preparation undertaken to condition the collocation space so the first Collocator in an SBC- 13STATE Premise will not be responsible for the entire cost of site preparation. Allocation of Preparation Charges shall occur only upon the initial delivery of New Shared Collocation and SBC-13STATE shall not be required to adjust such allocation if another Resident Collocator subsequently shares such space. Except with respect to prorated Preparation Charges, SBC-13STATE shall bill only the Primary Collocator for, and the Primary Collocator shall be the primary obligor with respect to the payment of, all charges other than Preparation Charges billed on New Shared Collocation. It is the Primary Collocator's responsibility to recover from each other Resident Collocator such Collocator's proportionate share of such other charges billed to the Primary Collocator for the New Shared Cage Collocation. If Collocator is a Resident Collocator but not the Primary Collocator in a New Shared Collocation arrangement, Collocator agrees that the Primary Collocator's rates, terms and conditions relating to New Shared Collocation set forth in the Primary Collocator's Section 251/252 agreement or the applicable tariff under which the Primary Collocator purchases collocation shall apply to its New Shared Collocation arrangement in lieu of those set forth herein. Further, if Collocator is the Primary Collocator in a New Shared Collocation arrangement, as a condition of ordering New Shared Allocation, Collocator shall require its Resident Collocator(s) to execute an agreement prior to the Delivery Date that, inter alia, requires such Resident Collocator(s)' compliance with the terms, conditions and restrictions relating to Collocation contained in this Agreement and designates SBC-13STATE as a third party beneficiary of such agreement. Collocator, acting in its capacity as Primary Collocator, shall notify its Resident Collocator(s) of the obligation to comply with this Agreement with respect to the New Shared Collocation arrangement and shall be responsible for any breach of such provisions by the Resident Collocator(s). 4.1.2.1.3 For Subleased Shared Collocation, if the Collocator is the Primary Collocator, then that (Primary) Collocator shall be responsible for its and its Resident Collocator's compliance with the terms, conditions and restrictions of this Agreement. As a condition to permitting another Collocator to sublease space from Collocator, Collocator shall require such other Collocator(s) to execute a sublease agreement prior to the Delivery Date that, inter alia, requires such Collocator's compliance with the terms, conditions and restrictions relating to Collocation contained in this Agreement and designates SBC-13STATE as a third party beneficiary of such agreement. Collocator, acting in its capacity as Primary Collocator, shall notify its Resident Collocator(s) of the obligation to comply with this Agreement relating to Physical Collocation and shall be responsible for any breach of such provisions by the Resident Collocator(s). If Collocator is the sublessee (i.e., not the Primary Collocator) in a Subleased Shared Collocation arrangement, Collocator agrees that Primary Collocator's rates, terms and conditions relating to Subleased Shared Collocations set forth in the Primary Collocator's Section 251/252 agreement or the applicable tariff under which the Primary Collocator purchases collocation t shall apply to its Subleased Shared Collocation arrangement in lieu of those set forth herein.
