1
2
[ ] - CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED
the party claimed to have waived or consented. No consent by any party
to, or waiver of, a breach or default by the other, whether expressed
or implied, shall constitute a consent to, waiver of, or excuse for any

6. Term. The term of this Agreement shall be effective, and its
obligations shall commence, upon the date of execution by the parties.
This Agreement shall be effective for a period of one (1) year from the
date of commencement of services hereof, notwithstanding violation of

with any late fees within fifteen (15) days of the resolution. In the
event the dispute cannot be resolved within a period of sixty (60) days

dispute has not been resolved within fifteen (15) days following the

remedies as defined in SECTION 14 of this agreement. BTI shall not be
obligated to consider any Customer notice of billing discrepancies
which are received by BTI more than sixty (60) days following the Due
Date of the invoice in question. In the event that Customer fails to
pay an invoice in full because of a billing dispute, BTI shall have the
right to suspend all or any portion of the Service to Customer until

19. Credit Limit. BTI reserves the right to establish a credit limit for
Customer to include but not be limited to all fees, charges and usage
(billed and/or unbilled). Customer's credit limit will be reviewed on a
monthly basis by the BTI Credit department and is subject to adjustment

20. Universal Service Fund. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
mandates all telecommunications carriers who provide interstate,
intrastate, and international telecommunications services to contribute
to various universal service support funds. Carriers are required to
complete a worksheet detailing gross billed revenues for submission to
the FCC on a semi-annual basis. Revenues from services provided to
Resellers are excluded from the funding base for determining Universal
Service Contributions of the underlying contributor. A reseller is
defined as a telecommunications service provider that:
(1) Incorporates the purchased telecommunications services into
its own offerings; and
(2) Can reasonably be expected to contribute to support Universal
Service based on revenues from these offerings.
BTI will not be reporting revenues received from Customer in its
funding base for determining Universal Service Contributions. As a
Reseller, Customer is responsible for remitting universal service
support payments directly to the Universal Service Fund Administrator.
21. Assignment. Not withstanding the foregoing, Customer may assign or
delegate its obligations hereunder to any affiliate or subsidiary of
Customer without the prior written consent of BTI, but upon reasonable
written notice to BTI. Such assignment shall not relieve Customer of
any obligations or liabilities hereunder. This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of Customer and its successors
and assigns.
22. Length of Offer; Entire Agreement. This offer shall remain open and be
capable of being accepted by Customer until September 30, 1998. Any and
all prior agreements made with Customer, whether written or oral, shall
be superseded by this offer. Exclusive of any rates modifications
initiated by BTI, once this Agreement has been executed, any amendments
hereto must be made in writing and signed by both parties.
In witness whereof the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the day
and year first above written.

EXHIBIT E
PAYPHONE OWNER COMPENSATION UNDERTAKING
The undersigned entity ("Customer") and Business Telecom, Inc., ("BTI")
have heretofore entered into an agreement ("Agreement") pursuant to which
Customer shall purchase telecommunications and related services from BTI ("BTI
Services"). Pursuant to 47 C.F.R. 64.1300 et. seq. and the Federal
Communications Commission ("FCC") Orders in CC Docket 96-128 ("Payphone
Orders"), facilities-based carriers are required to pay compensation to payphone
owners for each completed payphone call routed to the carrier ("payphone
charges"). Customer is providing this undertaking to BTI, or any successor in
interest, pursuant to 47 C.F.R. 64.1300 et. seq. and the FCC's Payphone Orders,
confirming that Customer is responsible for payment of payphone charges routed
to any of its switches.
Customer hereby certifies, represents, warrants and undertakes the
following:
1. Customer maintains its own switching capability and, thus, is
a facilities-bases carrier pursuant to 47 C.F.R. 64.1300 et. seq. and the FCC's
Payphone Orders.
2. As a facilities-based carrier, pursuant to 47 C.F.R. 64.1300
et. seq. and the FCC's Payphone Orders, Customer is responsible for accurately
tracking and computing compensation for every completed payphone originated call
routed to any switch maintained by Customer.
3. Customer will, in accordance with 47 C.F.R. 64.1300 et. seq.
and the FCC's Payphone Orders, track and pay compensation to the appropriate
payphone owner for each and every completed payphone originated call routed to
any of the switches it maintains.
4. Customer understands that because it is a facilities-based
carrier, BTI is not responsible for payment of any payphone charges arising from
payphone originated calls routed to any of Customer's switches and BTI and
Customer have no agreement that BTI will track and/or pay any payphone charges
on behalf of Customer.
5. Customer hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless
BTI, its shareholders, affiliates, subsidiaries, successors and assigns
("indemnified parties") from any claims, losses, liabilities, fines, penalties,
charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees) arising out of or
related to payphone charges that may be imposed upon such indemnified parties as
a result of: (1) any calls originated by Customer's end users at a payphone; or
(2) any payphone originated calls routed to any of Customer's switches.
6. Customer has received good and valid consideration for its
execution and delivery of this undertaking. This undertaking will be effective
as of the date BTI Services are provided to Customer.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned, as a duly authorized officer of
the Customer, does hereby execute and deliver this undertaking on behalf of the
Customer.
