3.0 [Intentionally left blank]

4.0 INTERCONNECTION ARRANGEMENT

The types of traffic to be exchanged under this Agreement shall be Local Traffic and IntraLATA Toll Traffic.

4.1 Scope

4.1.1 Section 4 describes the architecture for direct Interconnection of the Parties’ facilities and equipment over which the Parties shall configure the following trunk groups:

4.1.1.1 Interconnection trunks (“Interconnection Trunks” or “Interconnection Trunk Group[s]”)for the transmission and routing of Local Traffic, IntraLATA

Cox / Pac-West
CA Network Interconnection Agreement

Toll Traffic and translated (post-query) intraLATA 800/888 traffic between their respective Telephone Exchange Service Customers in accordance with Section 5 below. Interconnection Trunks shall be designed and configured for two-way operation.

4.1.2 For the purposes of this Agreement, the Parties agree that Interconnection for the transport and termination of traffic may take place indirectly via a third party’s Tandem Transit arrangement or directly at a terminating End Office, a Tandem, a Wire Center, any mutually agreed-upon Mid-Span Meet or Shared Fiber Meet arrangement as provided in Sections 4.2 to 4.4 below, and/or other points as specified herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, sentence, the Parties shall consider and discuss the establishment of two-way direct End Office trunk groups when the volume of transit traffic originating from one Party and passing through the appropriate ILEC Tandem switch to which both Parties are directly connected, and terminating at the other Party, exceeds the CCS busy hour equivalent of one (1) DS-1 equivalent trunks, on a monthly average basis, for each month of any three (3) consecutive months.

4.1.3 Where direct Interconnection is used, the Parties shall establish mutually agreed-upon interconnection points (collectively, the “Points of Interconnection” or “POIs”).

4.1.4 Where direct Interconnection is used, the Parties shall configure separate trunk groups (as described in subsection 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 above) for traffic between Cox and Pac-West. Where indirect Interconnection is used, each Party shall be responsible for ensuring that it has sufficient facilities in place to each third party Tandem Transit arrangement used to exchange traffic between the Parties’ networks.

4.2 Physical Architectures

4.2.1 In each LATA where direct Interconnection is used, the Parties shall utilize the POI(s) designated as the points from which the Parties will provide the transport and termination of traffic. Each Party is operationally and financially responsible for bringing its facilities (and the originating traffic over those facilities) to the POI(s).

4.2.2 The Parties may mutually agree to any of the following methods for direct Interconnection:

(a) a Physical Collocation facility established separately by a Party or by a third party with whom Cox or Pac-West has contracted for such purposes;

(b) an entrance facility and transport (and any necessary multiplexing) provided by or leased from a Party or a third party, pursuant to its effective Tariff;

(e) any other mutually-agreed to arrangement, as negotiated by the Parties.

Cox / Pac-West
CA Network Interconnection Agreement

4.2.3 Each Party shall provide its own facilities or purchase necessary transport for the delivery of traffic to any agreed-to POI; where facilities are shared, each Party shall pay its proportionate share of the cost of the jointly-used facilities.

4.2.4 The Parties may order any of the Interconnection methods specified above in accordance with the order intervals and other terms and conditions, including, without limitation, rates and charges, set forth in this Agreement, in any applicable Tariff(s) or as may be subsequently agreed to between the Parties.

4.3 Mid-Span Meets

4.3.1 The Parties may agree to establish (i) a Mid-Span Meet arrangement in accordance with the terms of this subsection 4.3 that utilizes wireline transmission facilities. In a Mid-Span Meet, each Party extends its facilities to meet the other Party. The point where the facilities meet is the Mid-Span point. Each Party bears its own costs to establish and maintain a Mid-Span Meet arrangement, and/or shares any common costs associated with the arrangement. However, the Parties also agree that a technical arrangement for a Mid-Span Meet may involve one Party placing and extending its own (or leased) fiber facilities to the Wire Center of the other Party, with sufficient additional length on the fiber to permit the receiving Party to terminate the fiber without requiring splicing of the fiber facilities prior to the terminal equipment in the receiving Party’s Wire Center. In this situation, the Parties will negotiate reasonable compensation to be paid to the Party extending the facilities for the associated labor, materials, and conduit space used in extending its facilities beyond a negotiated Mid Span point.

4.3.2 The establishment of any Mid-Span Meet arrangement is expressly conditioned upon the Parties’ reaching prior agreement on appropriate sizing and forecasting, equipment, ordering, provisioning, maintenance, repair, testing, augment, and compensation procedures and arrangements, reasonable distance limitations, and on any other arrangements necessary to implement the Mid-Span Meet arrangement. Any Mid-Span Meet arrangement requested at a third-party premises is expressly conditioned on the Parties’ having sufficient capacity at the requested location to meet such request, on unrestricted 24-hour access for both Parties to the requested location, on other appropriate protections as deemed necessary by either Party, and on an appropriate commitment that such access and other arrangements may not be restricted for a reasonable period.

4.3.3 Mid-Span Meet arrangements shall be used only for the termination of Local Traffic and IntraLATA Toll Traffic, unless and until such time as the Parties have agreed to appropriate compensation arrangements relating to the exchange of other types of traffic over such Mid-Span Meet, and only where facilities are available.

4.3.4 A Mid-Span Meet arrangement may be implemented by establishing direct End Office interconnection using an electrical or optical cross-connect between the Parties’ respective collocation arrangements at the appropriate third-party LEC Central Office. Each Party will pay 50% of the non-recurring and recurring costs of the cross-connects provisioned by the third-party LEC. Except for the splitting of cross-connect costs, each Party shall be

Cox / Pac-West
CA Network Interconnection Agreement

operationally and financially responsible for its own facilities on its side of the Interconnection Point.

4.3.5 The Parties’ agree to initially establish direct End Office Trunking arrangements in accordance with Appendix 2 to this Agreement. Appendix 2 of the Agreement may be revised from time to time upon the mutual agreement of the Parties to reflect additional or changed interconnection arrangements in California utilizing the Mid-Span Meet arrangement discussed in Section 4.3.4 above or any other method available under Section 4.

5.2.3 Each Party will identify its Carrier Identification Code, a three or four digit numeric obtained from Telcordia (formerly “Bellcore”), to the other Party when ordering a trunk group.

5.3 Additional Switching System Hierarchy and Trunking Requirements

Cox / Pac-West
CA Network Interconnection Agreement

For purposes of routing Cox traffic to Pac-West, the subtending arrangements between Pac-West Tandem Switches (or functional equivalent) and Pac-West End Office Switches (or functional equivalent) shall be the same as the Tandem/End Office subtending arrangements Pac-West maintains for the routing of its own or other carriers’ traffic. For purposes of routing Pac-West traffic to Cox, the subtending arrangements between Cox Tandem Switches (or functional equivalent) and Cox End Office Switches (or functional equivalent) shall be the same as the Tandem/End Office subtending arrangements (or functional equivalent) which Cox maintains for the routing of its own or other carriers’ traffic.

5.4 Signaling

Each Party will provide the other Party with direct or indirect access to its databases and associated signaling necessary for the routing and completion of the other Party’s traffic in accordance with the provisions contained in Section 14 below. In addition, where direct trunk Interconnection is used, the Parties will use SS7 signaling; where indirect trunk Interconnection is used, the Parties will ensure that SS7 signaling is used end-to-end.

5.5 Grades of Service

Where direct Interconnection is used, the Parties shall initially engineer and shall jointly engineer and maintain all trunk groups consistent with the Joint Implementation and Grooming Process as set forth in Section 10.

5.6 Measurement and Billing

5.6.1 The terminating Party shall be responsible for creating or obtaining any billing records needed in order to xxxx the originating Party terminating access minutes of use. Measurement of minutes of use shall be in actual conversation seconds. The total conversation seconds over each Interconnection trunk group will be totaled for the entire monthly billing cycle and then rounded to the next whole minute.

5.6.2 For billing and/or self-auditing purposes, whether direct or indirect Interconnection is used, each Party shall pass Calling Party Number (“CPN”) information on at least ninety percent (90%) of calls carried over the Interconnection Trunks. If the originating Party passes CPN on less than ninety percent (90%) of its calls, the terminating Party shall xxxx its intrastate Switched Access Service rates for all traffic passed without CPN unless the Parties agree that such other rates should apply to such traffic.

5.6.3 The Parties agree to provide a single statewide percent local usage (“PLU”) factor for all traffic exchanged between the Parties directly and indirectly via a Tandem Transit provider. Each Party shall provide the initial PLU to the other within 30 days of execution of the Agreement. Adjustments to the applicable PLU, if any, may be made on a calendar-year quarterly basis, within 15 calendar days after the end of each quarter. When billing the other Party, a Party may classify traffic as either Local Traffic or IntraLATA Toll Traffic by using CPN information or such PLU factor.

Cox / Pac-West

5.7.5 The Parties shall compensate each other for the transport and termination of all IntraLATA Toll Traffic at the rates provided in the Detailed Schedule of Itemized Charges (Appendix 1 hereto).

5.7.6 The designation of traffic as Local or IntraLATA Toll for purposes of compensation shall be based on the horizontal and vertical coordinates associated with the originating and terminating NPA-NXXs of the call, regardless of the carrier(s) involved in carrying any segment of the call.

5.7.7 In accordance with subsection 14.2, Pac-West and Cox agree that all networks involved in exchanging Pac-West and Cox traffic via Tandem Transit arrangement will use CCS/SS7 protocol, including Calling Party Number (“CPN”) and appropriate TCAP messages, to facilitate full interoperability and billing and/or self-audit functions.

5.7.8 Each Party reserves the right to measure and audit all traffic, up to a maximum of one audit per 12-month period, to ensure that proper rates are being applied appropriately, provided, however, that either Party shall have the right to conduct additional audit(s) if the preceding audit disclosed material errors or discrepancies. Each Party agrees to provide the necessary traffic data or permit the other Party’s recording equipment to be installed for sampling purposes in conjunction with any such audit.

5.8 Compensation to Third Party Transit Tandem Service Providers

5.8.1 Where Traffic is exchanged via a third party’s Tandem Transit arrangement, the originating Party shall be responsible for payment of any transit charges assessed by the third party Tandem Transit provider for the use of its tandem. Further, it is the originating Party’s responsibility to ensure that any agreement it may have in place with such third party Tandem Transit provider allows the originating Party’s traffic to be transited to the terminating Party.

5.8.2 To the extent required to prevent double payment or double recovery by either Party, if either Party bills the Tandem Transit provider for terminating the other Party’s traffic, or if either Party pays the Tandem Transit provider to terminate that Party’s traffic (in addition to paying the Tandem Transit provider’s ‘transit’ charges), the Parties agree that no additional compensation for such traffic shall be billed or owed between the Parties.

6.0 800/888 TRAFFIC

For IntraLATA Toll Free Service calls provided by one of the Parties, the compensation set forth in the Detailed Schedule of Itemized Charges (Appendix 1 hereto) for IntraLATA Toll Traffic, shall be paid by the Party terminating the call to the Party originating the call. If needed, the Parties will develop a mutually agreed-to method for exchanging billing data for this purpose.

Cox / Pac-West
CA Network Interconnection Agreement

The Interconnection provided hereunder may be discontinued (e.g., trunks made busy and/or disconnected) by either Party upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to the other for repeated or willful violation of and/or a refusal to comply with this Agreement in any material respect. Interconnection shall not be discontinued if the other Party cures or disputes the alleged violation within the thirty (30) day time frame of receipt of the written notice. The Party discontinuing will notify the appropriate federal and/or state regulatory bodies concurrently with the notice to the other Party of the prospective discontinuance.

9.4 Outage Repair Standard

In the event of an outage or trouble in any arrangement, facility, or service being provided by a Party hereunder (the “Providing Party”), the Providing Party will follow procedures for isolating and clearing the outage or trouble that are no less favorable than those that apply to comparable arrangements, facilities, or services being provided by the Providing Party to any other carrier whose network is connected to that of the Providing Party. Cox and Pac-West may agree to modify those procedures from time to time based on their experience with comparable Interconnection arrangements with other carriers.

9.5 Notice of Changes

If a Party makes a change in the information necessary for the transmission and routing of services using that Party’s network, or any other change in its network which it believes will materially affect the interoperability of its network with the other Party’s network, the Party making the change shall provide at least ninety (90) days’ advance written notice of such change to the other Party, and shall use all reasonable efforts to provide at least one hundred eighty (180) days’ notice where practicable; provided, however, that if a longer period of notice is required by the FCC’s or Commission’s rules.

10. JOINT NETWORK IMPLEMENTATION AND GROOMING PROCESS; INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE, TESTING AND REPAIR

10.1 Joint Network Implementation and Grooming Process

Cox and Pac-West shall jointly develop an implementation and grooming process (the “Joint Process”) which shall define and detail, inter alia,

(a) where direct Interconnection is used, standards to ensure that Interconnection trunk groups experience a grade of service, availability and quality which is comparable to that achieved on interoffice trunks within one another’s network and in accord with all appropriate relevant industry-accepted quality, reliability and availability standards. “Final” trunk groups, if used, will be engineered using a design blocking objective of B.01;

(b) where direct Interconnection is used, the respective duties and responsibilities of the Parties with respect to the administration and maintenance

Cox / Pac-West
CA Network Interconnection Agreement

of the trunk groups, including, but not limited to, standards and procedures for notification and discoveries of trunk disconnects;

(d) information related to traffic between exchanges that may be required for forecasting each Party’s network requirements; and

(e) such other matters as the Parties may agree, including, e.g., where direct Interconnection is used, implementation of End Office-to-End Office high usage trunks, as sound engineering practices may dictate.

10.2 Installation, Maintenance, Testing and Repair

Unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties, direct Interconnection shall be equal in quality to that provided by each of the Parties to any subsidiary, affiliate, or third party. For purposes of this Agreement, “equal in quality” means the same or equivalent interface specifications, provisioning, installation, maintenance, testing and repair intervals for the same or equivalent services under like circumstances. If either Party is unable to fulfill its obligations under this subsection 10.2, it shall notify the other Party of its inability to do so and will negotiate alternative intervals in good faith. The Parties agree that the standards to be used by each Party for isolating and clearing any disconnections and/or other direct or indirect Interconnection outages or troubles shall be no less favorable than those applicable to comparable arrangements, facilities, or services being provided by such Party to any other carrier whose network is connected to that of the Providing Party.

10.3 Forecasting Requirements for Trunk Provisioning

10.3.1 Where direct Interconnection is used, within ninety (90) days of executing this Agreement, the Parties shall provide one another yearly traffic forecasts. This initial forecast will provide the amount of traffic to be delivered by each Party over each of the Interconnection Trunk groups. The forecast shall be updated and provided to one another twice a year. All forecasts shall include Access Carrier Terminal Location, traffic type (local/toll, IP, etc.), code (identifies trunk group), A location/Z location (CLLI codes), interface type (e.g., DS1), and cumulative trunks in service each year for current, as well as current plus-1 and plus-2 years.

10.3.2 Where direct Interconnection is used the Parties will, for ninety (90) days, monitor traffic on each trunk group that it establishes. At the end of such ninety (90) day period, either Party may request to disconnect trunks that, based on reasonable engineering criteria and capacity constraints, are not warranted by the actual traffic volume experienced.

14.0 DATABASES AND SIGNALING

14.1 Each Party shall provide the other Party with access to databases and associated signaling necessary for call routing and completion, including but not limited to calling name information as required, by providing SS7 Common Channel Signaling (CCS) Interconnection in accordance with existing Tariffs, and Interconnection and access to 800/888 databases, LIDB, and any other necessary databases in accordance with existing Tariffs and/or agreements with other unaffiliated carriers, with compensation terms in accordance with Section 14.3 below. Alternatively, either Party may secure CCS Interconnection from a commercial SS7 hub provider, and in that case the other Party will permit the purchasing Party to access the same databases as would have been accessible if the purchasing party had connected directly to the other Party’s CCS network.

14.2 The Parties will provide CCS Signaling to one another in all direct or indirect Interconnection trunking arrangements. The Parties will cooperate on the exchange of TCAP messages to facilitate interoperability of all CCS-based features and services, including but not limited to CLASS and Calling Name Delivery, to the extent each Party offers such features and functions to its Customers. All CCS Signaling parameters will be provided upon request (where such parameters are available and support signaling features and functions deployed within both Parties’ networks), including called party number, Calling Party Number, calling party category, and charge number. All privacy indicators will be honored.

14.3 The Parties agree that their respective CCS signaling costs shall offset each other, and no explicit compensation between the Parties shall apply.

24.5 Choice of Law

The construction, interpretation and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, except for its conflicts of laws provisions. In addition, insofar as and to the extent federal law may apply, federal law will control.

24.6 Taxes

24.6.1 In General. With respect to any purchase hereunder of services, facilities or arrangements, if any federal, state or local tax, fee, surcharge or other tax-like charge (a “Tax”) is required or permitted by Applicable Law to be collected from the purchasing Party by the Providing Party, then (i) the Providing Party shall properly xxxx the purchasing Party for such Tax, (ii) the purchasing Party shall timely remit such Tax to the Providing Party and (iii) the Providing Party shall timely remit such collected Tax to the applicable taxing authority.

24.6.2 Taxes Imposed on the Providing Party With respect to any purchase hereunder of services, facilities or arrangements, if any federal, state or local Tax is imposed by Applicable Law on the receipts of the Providing Party, which Law permits the Providing Party to exclude certain receipts received from sales for resale to a public utility, distributor, telephone company, local exchange carrier, telecommunications company or other communications company (“Telecommunications Company”), such exclusion being based solely on the fact that the purchasing Party is also subject to a tax based upon receipts (“Receipts Tax”), then the purchasing Party (i) shall provide the Providing Party with notice in writing in accordance with subsection 24.6.6 of this Agreement of its intent to pay the Receipts Tax and (ii) shall timely pay the Receipts Tax to the applicable tax authority.

24.6.3 Taxes Imposed on Customers With respect to any purchase hereunder of services, facilities or arrangements that are resold to a third party, if any federal, state or local Tax is imposed by Applicable Law on the subscriber, end-user, Customer or ultimate consumer

Cox / Pac-West
CA Network Interconnection Agreement

(“Subscriber”) in connection with any such purchase, which a Telecommunications Company is required to impose and/or collect from a Subscriber, then the purchasing Party (i) shall be required to impose and/or collect such Tax from the Subscriber and (ii) shall timely remit such Tax to the applicable taxing authority.

24.6.4 Liability for Uncollected Tax, Interest and Penalty If the Providing Party has not received an exemption certificate and fails to collect any Tax as required by subsection 24.6.1, then, as between the Providing Party and the purchasing Party, (i) the purchasing Party shall remain liable for such uncollected Tax and (ii) the Providing Party shall be liable for any interest assessed thereon and any penalty assessed with respect to such uncollected Tax by such authority. If the Providing Party properly bills the purchasing Party for any Tax but the purchasing Party fails to remit such Tax to the Providing Party as required by subsection 24.6.1, then, as between the Providing Party and the purchasing Party, the purchasing Party shall be liable for such uncollected Tax and any interest assessed thereon, as well as any penalty assessed with respect to such uncollected Tax by the applicable taxing authority. If the Providing Party does not collect any Tax as required by subsection 24.6.1 because the purchasing Party has provided such Providing Party with an exemption certificate that is later found to be inadequate by a taxing authority, then, as between the Providing Party and the purchasing Party, the purchasing Party shall be liable for such uncollected Tax and any interest assessed thereon, as well as any penalty assessed with respect to such uncollected Tax by the applicable taxing authority. If the purchasing Party fails to pay the Receipts Tax as required by subsection 24.6.2, then, as between the Providing Party and the purchasing Party, (x) the Providing Party shall be liable for any Tax imposed on its receipts and (y) the purchasing Party shall be liable for any interest assessed thereon and any penalty assessed upon the Providing Party with respect to such Tax by such authority. If the purchasing Party fails to impose and/or collect any Tax from Subscribers as required by subsection 24.6.3, then, as between the Providing Party and the purchasing Party, the purchasing Party shall remain liable for such uncollected Tax and any interest assessed thereon, as well as any penalty assessed with respect to such uncollected Tax by the applicable taxing authority. With respect to any Tax that the purchasing Party has agreed to pay, or is required to impose on and/or collect from Subscribers, the purchasing Party agrees to indemnify and hold the Providing Party harmless on an after-tax basis for any costs incurred by the Providing Party as a result of actions taken by the applicable taxing authority to recover the Tax from the Providing Party due to the failure of the purchasing Party to timely pay, or collect and timely remit, such Tax to such authority. In the event either Party is audited by a taxing authority, the other Party agrees to cooperate fully with the Party being audited in order to respond to any audit inquiries in a proper and timely manner so that the audit and/or any resulting controversy may be resolved expeditiously.

24.6.5 Tax Exemptions and Exemption Certificates If Applicable Law clearly exempts a purchase hereunder from a Tax, and if such Law also provides an exemption procedure, such as an exemption-certificate requirement, then, if the purchasing Party complies with such procedure, the Providing Party shall not collect such Tax during the effective period of such exemption. Such exemption shall be effective upon receipt of the exemption certificate or affidavit in accordance with the terms set forth in subsection 24.6.6. If Applicable Law clearly exempts a purchase hereunder from a Tax, but does not also provide an exemption procedure, then the Providing Party shall not collect such Tax if the purchasing Party (i) furnishes the

Cox / Pac-West
CA Network Interconnection Agreement

Providing Party with a letter signed by an officer requesting such an exemption and citing the provision in the Law which clearly allows such exemption and (ii) supplies the Providing Party with an indemnification agreement, reasonably acceptable to the Providing Party (e.g., an agreement commonly used in the industry), which holds the Providing Party harmless on an after-tax basis with respect to its forbearing to collect such Tax.

24.6.6 Notices for Purposes of this Subsection 24.6 All notices, affidavits, exemption-certificates or other communications required or permitted to be given by either Party to the other, for purposes of this subsection 24.6, shall be made in writing and shall be delivered in person or sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, or registered mail, or a courier service providing proof of service, and sent to the addressees set forth in subsection 24.10 as well as to the following:

				Xxxxxxx, XX 00000

Either Party may from time to time designate another address or other addressees by giving notice in accordance with the terms of this subsection 24.6. Any notice or other communication shall be deemed to be given when received.

24.7 Assignment.

Either Party may assign this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder to a third party, with the other Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld upon the provision of reasonable evidence by the proposed assignee that it has the resources, ability, and authority to provide satisfactory performance under this Agreement. Any assignment or delegation in violation of this subsection 24.7 shall be void and ineffective and constitute a default of this Agreement. No consent will be required in the event of assignment to a parent owning a majority of the Party, or a majority owned subsidiary of the Party, provided that such assignment shall not relieve the assigning Party of its obligations hereunder unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties. The foregoing shall not be construed to prevent a Party from granting a security interest in this Agreement.

24.8 Billing and Payment; Disputed Amounts.

24.8.1 Except as may otherwise be provided in this Agreement, each Party shall submit on a monthly basis an itemized statement of charges incurred by the other Party during the

Cox / Pac-West
CA Network Interconnection Agreement

preceding month(s) for services rendered hereunder. Payment of billed amounts under this Agreement, whether billed on a monthly basis or as otherwise provided herein, shall be due, in immediately available U.S. funds, within thirty (30) days of the date of such statement.

24.8.2 Although it is the intent of both Parties to submit timely and accurate statements of charges, failure by either Party to present statements to the other Party in a timely manner shall not constitute a breach or default, or a waiver of the right to payment of the incurred charges, by the billing Party under this Agreement, and the billed Party shall not be entitled to dispute the billing Party’s statement(s) based on such Party’s failure to submit them in a timely fashion.

24.8.3 No claims, under this Agreement or its Attachments, shall be brought for disputed amounts more than twenty-four (24) months from the date of occurrence which gives rise to the dispute. If any portion of an amount due to a Party (the “Billing Party”) under this Agreement is subject to a bona fide dispute between the Parties, the Party billed (the “Non-Paying Party”) shall within sixty (60) days of its receipt of the invoice containing such disputed amount give notice to the Billing Party of the amounts it disputes (“Disputed Amounts”) and include in such notice the specific details and reasons for disputing each item. The Non-Paying Party shall pay when due (i) all undisputed amounts to the Billing Party and (ii) the Disputed Amount into an interest bearing escrow account with, or obtained from (in the case of a bond or letter of credit), an entity agreeable to both Parties. The Disputed Amount shall thereafter be paid, if appropriate, upon final determination of such dispute.

24.8.4 If the Parties are unable to resolve the issues related to the Disputed Amounts in the normal course of business within sixty (60) days after delivery to the Billing Party of notice of the Disputed Amounts, each of the Parties shall appoint a designated representative that has authority to settle the dispute and that is at a higher level of management than the persons with direct responsibility for administration of this Agreement. The designated representatives shall meet as often as they reasonably deem necessary in order to discuss the dispute and negotiate in good faith in an effort to resolve such dispute. The specific format for such discussions will be left to the discretion of the designated representatives, however all reasonable requests for relevant information made by one Party to the other Party shall be honored.

INITIAL INTERCONNECTION ARRANGEMENTS

1. Direct Interconnection. Where, and to the extent sound engineering practice suggests the use of direct interconnection, the Parties agree to establish such direct interconnection between their networks as described below:

(a) [If an ILEC ‘cage-to-cage’ interface is used.] Pac-West and Cox will implement a Mid-Span Meet interconnection. Cox will provide Pac-West Channel Facility Assignment and Letter Of Agency (“LOA”) for a DS3 position on their APOT. Pac-West will order the DS3 cross connect from Pacific Xxxx (where Pacific Xxxx provides such cross connects) and will xxxx Xxx for its proportionate use of the recurring and non-recurring costs charged by Pacific Xxxx for the cross connect. Once Pac-West receives the Design Layout Record (“DLR”)/Circuit Layout Record (“CLR”), the DLR/CLR will be forwarded to Cox with the proposed date of DS3 testing. After the DS3 cross connect is tested per Section 3 of this Appendix 2, then trunk interconnection will be established per section 4 of this Appendix 2.The applicable ACLLI will be ______and the ZCLLI will be ______.

(b) [If a leased interface is used.] Pac-West and Cox will implement direct interconnection using ____as the Local Access Provider. Cox will purchase the interoffice facilities from ___and xxxx Pac-West for its proportionate use of the recurring and non-recurring costs charged by ____for the facility. Pac-West will provide Cox with a LOA authorizing Cox to use the ____entrance facilities at the Pac-West wire center to interconnect to the Pac-West network at the DS3 level. Once Cox receives the LOA, Cox shall submit a DS3 order to ____with a standard interval due date. Once Cox receives the DLR/CLR, the DLR/CLR will be forwarded to Pac-West with the proposed date of DS3 testing. After the DS3 is tested per Section 3 of Appendix 1, then trunk interconnection will be established per section 4 of Appendix 2. The ACLLI will be ______and the ZCLLI will be ______.

3. Testing. The Parties will coordinate with each other to test the DS-3 and/or DS-1s in accordance with standard industry practices. The DS-3 test will be for a period of seventy-two (72) hours to verify continuity.

4. Initial Trunking Requirements. Once testing is successfully completed, Pac-West and Cox will initially jointly engineer and provision two-way trunks, starting at channel 1 of the DS-3 or DS-1, into their respective switches for establishment of interconnection trunking. Pac-West will order the trunks from Cox using Access Service Request (“ASR”) Exchange, which is ASOG ASR compliant to version 21. The trunk groups established pursuant to this MOU will be used to exchange Local Traffic (including traffic destined for Internet Service Providers) and IntraLATA Toll Traffic only.

Cox / Pac-West
