Taxes, Surcharges, and Fees. Customer shall pay all applicable taxes, fees, or surcharges imposed on or in connection with the Services that are the subject of this Service Agreement, including but not limited to applicable federal, state, and local sales, use, property, excise, telecommunications, or other taxes, franchise fees, federal and state universal service fund fees, and other state or local governmental charges or regulatory fees, excluding income taxes measured on Spectrum’s net income. If a Customer wishes to claim tax-exempt status, then Customer must supply Spectrum with a copy of Customer’s tax exemption certificate or other documentation supporting Customer’s certification of its entitlement to such exempt status within fifteen (15) days of installation of applicable Services. If Customer supplies such documentation after that time, Spectrum will apply it to Customer’s account on a prospective basis, allowing Spectrum at least thirty (30) days for processing. To the extent such documentation is held invalid for any reason, Customer agrees to pay or reimburse Spectrum for any tax or fee not collected or liability incurred, including without limitation related interest and penalties arising from Spectrum’s reliance on such invalid certificate or documentation. Customer hereby consents that Spectrum may disclose such written documentation, which may include a tax exemption form, to any governmental authority. Tax-exempt status shall not relieve Customer of its obligation to pay applicable franchise fees or other non-tax fees and surcharges since the application of such fees and surcharges may not be governed by the tax standing of Customer. Spectrum reserves the right, from time to time, to change the surcharges for Services under this Service Agreement to reflect incurred costs, charges, or obligations imposed on Spectrum to the extent permitted, required, or otherwise not prohibited under applicable law (e.g., universal service fund charges). Furthermore, Spectrum shall have the right to collect or recover from Customer the amount of any state or local fees or taxes arising as a result of this Service Agreement, which are imposed on Spectrum or its services, or otherwise assessed or calculated based on Spectrum’s receipts from Customer that Spectrum is entitled under applicable law to pass through to or otherwise charge Customer for Customer’s use or receipt of the Services. Such fees or taxes shall be invoiced to Customer in the form of a surcharge included on Customer’s invoice. To the extent that a dispute arises under this Service Agreement as to which Party is liable for fees or taxes, Customer shall bear the burden of proof in showing that the fee or tax is imposed upon Spectrum’s net income. This burden may be satisfied by Customer producing written documentation from the jurisdiction imposing the fee or tax indicating that the fee or tax is based on Spectrum’s net income. Customer acknowledges that currently, and from time to time, there is uncertainty about the taxability or regulatory classification of some of the Services Spectrum provides and, consequently, uncertainty about what fees, taxes and surcharges are due to or from Spectrum or from its customers. Customer agrees that Spectrum has the right to determine, in its sole discretion, what fees, taxes and surcharges are due and to collect and remit them to the relevant governmental authorities, or to pay and pass them through to Customer. Customer hereby waives any claims it may have regarding Spectrum’s collection or remittance of such fees, taxes, and surcharges.
