AMENDMENT #1 TO SERVICE AGREEMENT TERMS AND CONDITIONS

This is Amendment # 1 to the above Agreement between Frontier Communications of
the West, Inc. ('Frontier") and Boston Communications Group, Inc. ('Purchaser"),
dated July 9, 1996 (the 'Agreement").
1. Except as otherwise stated, capitalized terms used herein have the same
meaning as set forth in the Agreement
2. The following minimum charge is added to the Agreement:
Beginning with Purchaser's Billing Cycle that commences in the first
calendar month following the effective date of this Amendment, Purchaser is
liable for an overall yearly minimum usage charge for all Services of $ *
over the Initial Term as it has been extended in paragraph 3. below (the
"Yearly Minimum Charge"). If, at the end of the Initial Term, or if prior
to expiration of the Initial Term the Agreement is terminated by Frontier
for cause, and at that time Customer's net charges (after any discounts of
credits) for the Services are less than the Yearly A4inimum Charge,
Purchaser shall pay the shortfall.
3. The Initial Term of the Agreement is extended for an additional twelve (12)
months following the effective date of this Amendment.
4. Purchaser agrees to maintain the same traffic volumes (other than for
normal traffic fluctuations or attrition) except to the extent that
Purchaser gives Frontier 90 days prior written notice of Purchaser's intent
to actively reduce Purchaser's traffic volumes to Frontier and the schedule
for such reduction. if Purchaser-'s traffic volumes decrease (other than
for normal traffic fluctuations or attrition) and Purchaser did not provide
Frontier with the required notice, then Purchaser shall pay Frontier the
difference between Purchaser's prior Billing Cycle charges and Purchaser's
Billing Cycle charges for the decreased traffic volume. Frontier reserves
the right to audit Purchaser's pertinent books and records upon reasonable
advance notice to confirm Purchaser's compliance with this provision.
5. Section 3 (h) of the Agreement is modified by replacing the first sentence
and adding two more sentences: 'Frontier may revise the rates and monthly
recurring and other charges in this Agreement (and any, exhibits,
attachments or schedules) at any time upon written notice to Purchaser.
Unless otherwise stated the notice, domestic rates are effective within
thirty days and international/offshore rates are effective within seven
days of the date of Frontier's written notice. Other charges are effective
in accordance with the notice." The rest of the paragraph remains the same.
6. As an accommodation to Purchaser, Frontier has been billing certain of
Purchaser's customers on Purchaser's behalf. Frontier agrees to continue
this accommodation until 3/31/98, unless Purchaser requests earlier
termination in writing. Thereafter, Purchaser shall be responsible for
billing such customers directly or Purchaser shall work with Frontier to
place all Purchaser's End-Users on direct retail or wholesale agreements.
Purchaser has been and shall continue to be solely responsible for all
claims of its customers relative to this billing arrangement and otherwise,
including without limitation, any credits or adjustments that may be issued
or required to be issued to customers. Purchaser shall hold Frontier
harmless against any liability or bad debt associated with such billing
arrangement. Further, Purchaser shall remain liable for all usage charges
generated by Purchaser's customers, including those customers Purchaser may
be unable to xxxx for services after 3/3/98.

7. The existing rate and pricing schedules under the Agreement (including
volume discounts and any promotional rates or discounts associated with the
Services) are replaced with the attached Exhibits for the following
Services. The new rates will be effective no later than 30 days following
the effective date of this Amendment.

SERVICE METRICS
The following metrics will be used by Frontier to monitor the performance of its
network as it impacts the quality of service provided to Purchaser.
Information relating to network performance or monitoring processes will be
communicated between the Parties on a regular (in most instances monthly) basis,
and any concerns over performance may be raised at the time, if not addressed
earlier where appropriate.
Network performance is a function of carrier network engineering, and Frontier
will be dependent in significant part upon Purchaser's forecasts and projections
as it engineers its network for optimum performance. It is expected that
Purchaser has identified an excepted level of usage for the Service over the
term of the Agreement. It is also expected that Purchaser will provide usage
forecasts that, in Purchaser's reasonable judgment, have the highest probability
of occurring. Frontier will use such forecast in the engineering of its network,
allowing for the possibility of growth in excess of the forecast(s).
1. Network Performance Metrics:
1) Frontier will engineer its network to meet a Grade of Service of P.0
1. P.0 1 Grade of service is defined as engineering of the network so
that no more than I out of 100 calls experiences a blocking condition.
2) Network Availability: 99.99% per year.
3) Dial tone delay shall fall within the Bellcore land-line switching
specifications established in the LATA Switching System Generic
Requirements.
Trouble Reporting /Problem Escalation:
I The Parties shall supply each other with appropriate network contacts,
including names, phone numbers, beeper or cell-phone numbers, etc., as well
as a problem escalation contact list and trouble reporting protocols and
procedures. Each Party shall ensure the availability of a network contact
on a 24-hour, 7-day per week basis.
2. If any Service provided hereunder is not available for a cumulative of four
hours over any month, or for a cumulative of eight hours over three months
(Collectively, "Extended Outage"), the Parties shall, upon discovery of the
Extended Outage, immediately escalate the problem to their respective
Network/Operations Vice Presidents and promptly supply Purchaser with a
root cause analysis of the problem and well as a plan for corrective
action. If Frontier is unable to rectify the situation in a reasonable
timeframe or to Purchaser's satisfaction,
40
Purchaser shall have the right to terminate the Agreement in its entirety.
Purchaser must provide Frontier with notification of Termination within
(30) days of Extended Outage. After forty-five (45) days, Frontier will,
via written notification, adjust pricing to reflect market pricing. The
analysis and plan are to be sent to:
Name
Title
Boston Communications Group
000 Xxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx 000
Xxxxxx, XX
3. For the month in which an Extended Outage occurs, Frontier will waive any
applicable Minimum Charge obligation.
41

4) Frontier YAII notify Purchaser a minimum of 48 hours prior to any scheduled
downtime. (i.e. loading software upgrades, hardware maintenance, etc.)
5) Frontier is not liable for its failure to meet any of the Service Met6cs in
the following instances:
A. Failure attributable to Purchaser or its systems.
B. Failures attributable to third parties.
C. Failures attributable to Purchaser forecasts that are exceeded by more
than 15%.
D. Failures attributable to Force Majeure events.
