Exhibit 1
Alaska Market Structure Legislation
An excerpt from the Consolidated Appropriations Act for FY05
H. R. 4818--537
SEC. 112. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law or any contract: (1)
the rates in effect on November 15, 2004, under the tariff (the "tariff")
required by FCC 94-116 (reduced three percent annually starting January 1, 2006)
shall apply beginning 45 days after the date of enactment of this Act through
December 31, 2009, to the sale and purchase of interstate switched wholesale
service elements offered by any provider originating or terminating anywhere in
the area (the "market") described in section 4.7 of the tariff (collectively the
"covered services"); (2) beginning April 1, 2005, through December 31, 2009, no
provider of covered services may provide, and no purchaser of such services may
obtain, covered services in the same contract with services other than those
that originate or terminate in the market, if the covered services in the
contract represent more than 5 percent of such contract's total value; and (3)
revenues collected hereunder (less costs) for calendar years 2005 through 2009
shall be used to support and expand the network in the market.
(b) Effective on the date of enactment of this Act: (1) the conditions described
in FCC 95-334 and the related conditions imposed in FCC 94-116, FCC 95-427, and
FCC 96-485; and (2) all pending proceedings relating to the tariff, shall
terminate. Thereafter, the State regulatory commission with jurisdiction over
the market shall treat all interexchange carriers serving the market the same
with respect to the provision of intrastate services, with the goal of reducing
regulation, and shall not require such carriers to file reports based on the
Uniform System of Accounts. (c) Any provider may file to enforce this section
(including damages and injunctive relief) before the FCC (whose final order may
be appealed under 47 U.S.C. 402(a)) or under 47 U.S.C. 207 if the FCC fails to
issue a final order within 90 days of a filing. Nothing herein shall affect rate
integration, carrier-of-last-resort obligations of any carrier or its successor,
or the purchase of covered services by any rural telephone company (as defined
in 47 U.S.C. 153(37)), or an affiliate under its control, for its provision of
retail interstate interexchange services originating in the market.

2.5.7. Allowance for Interruption (continued)
Calculation of Credit Allowances - Credit allowances for interruptions to Common
Carrier Service are determined as set forth in (iv)(A) following. For
calculating credit allowances on monthly service, every month is considered to
have 30 days.
(A) Calculate the Average Value for one full day by
dividing the monthly rate by 30 days.
(B) Multiply the Average Value for one day by the
interruption period to be credited (see Calculation
Table) in order to determine the credit.
Example: A one hour interruption occurs.
Total monthly charge = $22,700
Average Value for
one full day = $22,700 = $756.67
-------
30
Amount credited = $756.67 x 1/10 = $75.67
(C) Calculation Table - The following table is used for
calculating credit allowances for interruptions to
1.544 Mbps Private Line Service provided on a monthly
basis.
(i) Interruptions of 24 Hours or Less
Interruption Period
Length of Interruption to be Credited
---------------------- -------------------
Less than 30 minutes None

4.5.1. Description and Application of Rates - Transport and switching are not
available for purchase separately. One or more transport rate elements and the
switching rate element apply to all minutes of use.
Usage rates apply only when a specific rate element is used. Usage is
accumulated over a monthly period. The usage rates specified in 4.6 following
are applied to the total measured minutes of use for the billing period.
Tx
A. Application of Rates
1. Transport Rates - These rates are usage sensitive. These rates are assessed
on all Common Carrier Services minutes that are transported over designated
portion(s) of the Company's network.
2. Switching Rate - This rate is usage sensitive. The rate is assessed on all
Common Carrier Services minutes that are switched by the Company's switching
center.
Tx
4.5.2. Measuring Common Carrier Minutes of Use - Customer traffic will be
measured by the Company at the Company's switching center. Originating and
terminating calls will be measured by the Company to determine the basis for
computing chargeable minutes of use. In the event Customer message detail is not
available because the Company lost or damaged tapes or experienced recording
system outages, the Company will estimate the volume of lost Customer minutes of
use based on previously known values for the most recent two billing months. If
the Customer has less than two billing months of usage or no history of usage,
the Customer must provide an estimate of usage incurred.
Cx
...
Cx
Common Carrier minutes of use are recorded in increments of tenths of seconds.
Common Carrier minutes of use are accumulated by Customer on a daily basis and
rounded up to the nearest full minute.
Usage Measurement - Common Carrier Services minutes of use recording begins when
the Company's switching center receives answer supervision from the LSO or the
Customer indicating the called party's telephone has been answered.
Common Carrier Services minutes of use recording ends when the Company's
switching center receives disconnect supervision from the LSO or the Customer
indicating call termination from either the calling or called party, whichever
is first.
