----------------------------------------
PRODUCT SCHEDULE
Software:
---------
TELEPHONY-
CSG Telephony is offered with ACSR to provide customer management for telephone
customers. With CSG Telephony, both cable and telephone services may be managed
by a single customer management package. Included in CSG Telephony are
integrated ordering and manual provisioning, telephone number assignment, usage
billing for a single xxxx of multiple products, product packaging and pricing,
E911, directory listing updates, CARE and service number portability.
CSG VANTAGE-
Vantage is a database which enables Customer to evaluate product and service
performance, conduct customer analysis and lifetime values, and transform raw
data into real-time reports and graphs.
ADVANCED CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE (ACSR)-
ASCR is a graphical user interface for CSG's CCS service bureau subscriber
management system. ACSR significantly reduces training time and eliminates the
need for CSR's to memorize transactions and codes. CSRs instead are allowed
easily to access reference tools, help screens and customer data. As companies
consolidate and cluster disparate systems with different codes and procedures,
ASCR ensures the accounts can be serviced by the same CSR. ASCR also enables
CSR's to communicate with one another through a self contained messaging system.
ASCR is designed so that module based functionality such as CIT and Scripting
can be added as needed.
CUSTOMER INTERACTION TRACKING (CIT)-
CIT is a module offered with ASCR that provides enhanced methods for tracking
the interaction with the customer base. It provides note taking functionality as
well as an interaction history feature that allows specific actions to be
recorded in a transaction history log. CIT also allows for the scheduling of
customer call backs. These call backs can be reviewed by management as well as
moved between CSR's.
SCRIPTING-
Scripting allows companies to create specific scripts for common situations that
help CSR'S relay consistent messages across the customer base. These scripts can
apply to trouble-shooting activities where a CSR starts with a general problem
and successfully selects the appropriate response and solution. The scripts can
also apply to marketing situations where a CSR can successfully up-sell or
cross-sell customers.
COMPUTER BASED TRAINING FOR ASCR,CIT AND SCRIPTING (Note: Notwithstanding
Section 15(a) of the Master Agreement, CSG provides no indemnification for
intellectual property infringements with respect to Computer Based Training).

. The 3270 Gateway must be an Attachmate SAA Gateway or an IPX/SPX Novell SAA
Gateway. If Novell version is 1.2 and you will use Attachmate's Extra!
Mainframe for Windows, you must use a version prior to extra! for Windows
4.1. Novell SAA Gateway version 2.0 or higher will require Attachmate's
Extra! Mainframe for Windows 4.1 or higher.
. If Customer currently has a network that is not Novell, or a gateway that is
not Novell or Attachmate, chmate, the LAN and

Using Vantage in the ACSR Product environment
--------------------------------------------
The ACSR product runs on an IP LAN with a SUN Server. A Brixton gateway on the
SUN Server is used to provide the Vantage Host link. When running Vantage in
that environment, Brixton TN3270 applications run on the SUN Server and Extra!
Mainframe for Windows is configured for a TN3270 network connection versus an
SAA gateway or SNA gateway. ACSR currently runs 16 bit PC OS only. ACSR required
OS is Microsoft Windows v3.11. If the Vantage PC will be used in the ACSR
environment, the ACSR PC Workstation Requirements should be used for both
Vantage and ACSR. Vantage will only run on a PC workstation.
