federal tariffs of Xfone USA, Inc. (“Xfone”), if
applicable; and/or, iii) the rates, terms and conditions
that appear on Xfone’s website, (www.xfoneusa.com)
if applicable. If no state and/or federal tariff
applies, in each case as the same exist or may be
modified in the future by Xfone, including limitations
on Xfone liabilities. The service is intended only for
the use of Customer, its authorized agents and
employees, and may not be resold without the prior
written consent of Xfone and any resale of Xfone
services or products will be considered a breach of this
Agreement.
Effective Date, Initial
Term and Renewal Term (together “Term”):
The initial term of a service provided under this
Agreement (“Initial Term”) shall commence on the
following date, as applicable: (i) for long distance
service, the date of Customer’s first usage (ii) for all
other services, the date the service first becomes
available to Customer, or (iii) if Customer purchases
more than one service, the date the final service
becomes available to Customer. Customer agrees to an
Initial Term of no (month-to-month), one (1), two (2) or
three (3) year(s), as indicated on the Agreement. Upon
expiration of the Initial Term (if one year or longer),
the Agreement shall automatically renew on the same
terms and conditions (including, without limitation, the
rates) including the Initial Term of the Agreement
(“Renewal Term”) unless either party notifies the other
of its intention to terminate the Agreement at the end
of the Initial Term or Renewal Term, as the case may be,
which such notice (the “Notice”) shall be in writing and
provided to the other party at least sixty (60) days
prior to expiration of the Initial Term or the Renewal
Term, as the case may be. In the event of such Notice,
the Agreement shall terminate upon the expiration of the
Initial Term or Renewal Term, as the case may be. The
Notice must be in writing and sent by mail, registered,
or certified mail, return receipt requested to Customer
Care Center, Attn: Disconnect Processing Team, 2506
Lakeland Drive, Suite 100 Jackson, MS 39232. Customer
shall notify Xfone in writing if the Customer contact
person is changed. Xfone reserves the right to reject
any Customer termination request received from any
person other than the designated Customer contact
person.
Savings Guarantee:
Xfone guarantees the stated savings under this Agreement
on (i) monthly recurring local telephone services,
available calling features and voice mail services used
by the Customer, (ii) monthly recurring data/Internet
services used by the Customer, (iii) and will charge the
long distance per U.S. domestic minute rate as
represented on the Service Agreement on those minutes of
use (MOUs) used above the package amount. Should the
Savings not be represented correctly on the applicable
services provided under this Agreement, Customer shall
immediately notify the Company either in written notice
or by calling Customer Service at 1-877-XFONEUS
specifying the billing error. Xfone will immediately
review and make the necessary adjustments, including any
credits that may be due, should there be an error in
billing. All adjustments and credits will be represented
on the next full monthly billing representing the
correct savings as represented under this Agreement.
Our Best Guarantee:
In addition to the Savings Guarantee, if Customer is not
satisfied with any Service provided by Xfone under this
Agreement, Customer shall provide written notice
specifying the performance deficiency in the Service and
allow Xfone 20 business days (“Notice Period”) to bring
the deficient performance to customarily acceptable
industry performance standards (“Cure”), or if not
capable of Cure within such notice period, make
reasonable progress toward such Cure during the Notice
Period. The written notice must cite this provision and
reasonably detail the deficient performance. Notice
under this section must be submitted by mail,
registered, or certified mail, return receipt requested
to Customer Care Center, Attn: Disconnect Processing
Team, 2506 Lakeland Drive, Suite 100 Jackson, MS 39232
and received by Xfone at least 30 days prior to the
discontinuance becoming effective. Should the parties
agree in writing that Xfone failed to Cure or make
progress toward such Cure within the Notice Period,
Xfone will cancel this Agreement upon request of
Customer and Customer shall be responsible for paying
all accrued charges for any Service used by Customer
through the date of cancellation.
Deposits: A
deposit may be required for the purpose of establishing
a Customer’s credit but shall not exceed two (2) months
of the estimated bill for Service. Xfone may require the
Customer to increase the amount of deposit at any time,
in its opinion, the charges billed to the Customer for
Service(s) are found to warrant such an increase. The
establishment of a Deposit shall not affect regular
collection practices. The fact that a deposit has been
made shall in no way relieve the Customer from complying
with Xfone’s regulations as to advance payments an
prompt payment of bills on presentation, nor constitute
a waiver or modification of the regular practices of
Xfone providing for the discontinuance of Service for
non-payment of any sums due Xfone for Service(s)
rendered. Xfone may discontinue Service(s) to any
Customer failing to pay current bills without regard to
the fact that Customer has made a deposit with Xfone to
secure payment of such bills.
Discontinuance Charge:
If Customer terminates this Agreement after execution by Customer but prior to commencement of service, Customer shall incur charges of $1500.00 per T1; $150 per dialable line account; and $150.00 per Internet service. If Customer terminates this Agreement after commencement of service and before the expiration date of the Initial Term or Renewal Term, as applicable, Early Contract Termination Liability Charges will be due immediately. Early Contract Termination Liability Charges will equal: (i) all unpaid and waived non-recurring and installation charges; (ii) the unpaid balance due from any Promissory Note, paid to the Customer as incentive to participate in the 15% Guaranteed Savings Program or to participate in other Service programs; (iii) the amount of $20.00 per dialable line(s) (telephone lines capable of carrying voice conversation or data/Internet connection, multiplied by the remaining months of the Initial Term or Renewal Term, as applicable. Internet T1 Service is defined as six (6) dialable lines and XNET Total Solutions dialble lines are identified on the XNET package selected. All three (3) components represent the total Early Contract Liability Charges. Any Customer notice of termination of the Agreement or any Service thereunder must be submitted by mail, registered, or certified mail, return receipt requested and received by Xfone at least 60 days prior to the discontinuance becoming effective. Because damages resulting from early termination would be difficult to determine, the parties agree that the Discontinuance Charge is a reasonable approximation of such damage and shall be considered a liquidated damage and not a penalty.
Incentives:
Incentive(s) include but are not limited to free or
discounted services under the Service Agreement, waiver
of any fees (i.e., installation charges, loop charges),
waived rental or other charges for the use of equipment,
etc. If Customer cancels any service provided under an
Incentive in full or in part, then Customer shall pay
any fees Customer would have incurred without the
Incentive. Likewise, Customer shall pay the then current
rate for any equipment received under an Incentive
(i.e., data CPE: multiplexers, CSU/DSU, routers, modems,
etc.) and/or, at Xfone’s discretion, allow Xfone to
retrieve the equipment from the Customer’s premise
during normal business hours.

Secure Access and/or IP/VPN
(if applicable): The Secure Access
service provided hereunder is the delivery via Internet
protocol of the Customer’s data between two remote
points utilizing Secure Access equipment. Xfone’s Secure
Access service includes the provision of the equipment
as set forth in this Agreement necessary to encode and
decode the Customer’s data, but excludes the provision
of the Local Loop, which must be contracted for
separately. Xfone agrees to provide its Secure Access
service within a certain minimum service level as is
stated on the Service Agreement. Customer acknowledges
that Xfone does not represent or warrant that the Secure
Access service will ensure uninterrupted or error-free
operation.
Customer Premise Equipment
(if applicable): In the event Xfone
furnishes customer premise equipment of any sort (“CPE”)
to Customer for use in connection with the services,
Customer shall, unless waived as an Incentive, pay the
aggregate rental charge for each item of CPE for the
full Term of this Agreement. Should Customer return any
item of CPE ordered by Customer and that has been used
or taken out of its box, Customer will pay Xfone a
Restocking charge.
Xfone, through its employees or other repair personnel,
will provide maintenance as required to keep CPE in good
operating condition as a result of Customer’s normal
use. Any manufacturer’s warranties or maintenance
contracts will be for the benefit of Xfone. Xfone
reserves the right to substitute another type of CPE of
similar functionality at its discretion. Any substituted
CPE or repair and replacement parts may be new or like
new. Customer shall provide Xfone or other repair
personnel reasonable access to the CPE. Customer agrees
to assume and bear the entire risk of any partial or
complete loss with respect to the CPE from any and every
cause whatsoever including theft, loss, damage,
(including damage caused by Acts of God, or Force
Majeure), destruction or governmental taking, whether or
not such loss is covered by insurance or caused by any
fault or neglect of Customer. If Customer is receiving
CPE at no rental cost to Customer, then Customer shall
be billed a Monthly Equipment Maintenance Coverage
charge and payment of such charge shall relieve Customer
of liability for Acts of God, including lightning, power
surge, fire, wind, flood and earthquake. Damage caused
by power surge, fire, and flood, which is not the result
of an Act of God, is specifically excluded from
coverage. Customer agrees to give Xfone prompt notice of
any damage to or loss of any CPE, or any abandonment or
relocation from Customer’s premise. All CPE furnished by
Xfone remain the property of Xfone. For Xfone-furnished
CPE that cannot be recovered from Customer's site,
Customer will pay Xfone the listed purchase price for
such CPE. CUSTOMER SHALL DEFEND AND INDEMNIFY XFONE FROM
ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, ACTIONS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, (INCLUDING
REASONABLE ATTORNEYS FEES) ARISING OUT OF THE PURCHASE,
POSSESSION, OPERATION, CONDITION, RETURN OR USE OF THE
CPE OR BY OPERATION OF LAW, EXCLUDING, HOWEVER, ANY OF
THE FOREGOING RESULTING SOLELY AND DIRECTLY FROM THE
NEGLIGENT OR WILLFUL ACTS OF XFONE.
Exclusive Local Provider
(applicable to T-1s with integrated local and
Internet/data services and XNET Total Solutions Services
for Business with integrated local and Internet/data
services): I certify that Xfone is my exclusive
local service provider for this location and I
understand the services provided at the rates herein are
based upon this certification and that additional
charges/fees will apply in the event that it is
discovered that the foregoing conditions have not been
met.
Software (if
applicable): Customer may be required to use
special software to use some of the Services and
software may be embedded in some of the CPE used by
Customer. Customer is granted a limited, non-exclusive,
non-transferable license under the software
manufacturer’s copyrights to use the software (in
executable code form) as specifically configured by the
software manufacturer solely in connection with Xfone’s
services. All rights not specifically granted to
Customer herein are expressly reserved by Xfone and/or
the software manufacturer. Customer will perform regular
backups using the Software and will report any errors in
executing such backups promptly by fax or e-mail to
software manufacturer. Customer will arrange for and
maintain communication services used to connect to
software manufacturer’s site. The security mechanisms
implemented by the software manufacturer may have
inherent limitations and Customer is solely responsible
for determining that this mechanism sufficiently meets
Customer's security and operational needs.
The Customer is responsible for any communication costs
associated with the connection between the Customer site
and software manufacturer’s site. Customer further
agrees that it shall not place any data on the Server
that: (a) infringes on the intellectual property rights
of any third party or any rights of publicity or
privacy; (b) violates any law, statute, ordinance or
regulation (including without limitation the laws and
regulations governing export control, unfair
competition, antidiscrimination or false advertising);
(c) is defamatory, trade libelous, unlawfully

third party claim, action, suit or proceeding alleging
any breach of the covenants contained herein. Customer

create derivative works from the Software; (b) merge the
Software with other software; (c) sublicense, lease,
rent, loan, or otherwise transfer the Software to any
third party; (d) reverse engineer, decompile,
disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive the source
code for the Software; (e) use the Software to process
data or provide any service bureau activity for any
third party; or (f) otherwise use or copy the Software,
except as expressly allowed by this provision. Customer
will not remove, alter, or obscure any proprietary

Rebiller - Resell Service
Provider Agreement: If Customer intends
to resell or rebill Xfone services, Customer hereby
certifies that it has all necessary state, federal,
legal and regulatory authority to resell or rebill any
telecommunication services to its tenants or customers.
In no event will Xfone directly bill any tenant or other
customer of Customer. If Customer is found to be in
violation of any federal, state or local law or
regulation for reselling or rebilling telecommunications
services, Customer shall indemnify Xfone for any related
claims by any third party against Xfone, including
attorneys’ fees and costs. All such indemnity
obligations of Customer shall survive termination or
expiration of the Agreement.
Default:
Should Customer fail to pay any invoiced item within 30
days of the date of invoice, Xfone reserves the right to
cease providing the service invoiced until such time as
the invoice is paid. Such interruption of service shall
not be a breach of this Agreement, and shall not afford
Customer any relief outlined in this Agreement or any
other document. If, after 10 days written notice to
Customer, the invoice shall remain unpaid, Xfone, at its
election, may declare Customer in default. If Customer
defaults, all amounts remaining to be paid under the
Term of this Agreement shall immediately become due and
payable. The remedies contained in this paragraph are
cumulative and in addition to all other rights and
remedies available to Xfone under this Agreement, by
operation of law or otherwise. In addition, in the event
of default, Customer shall pay Xfone for installation
and removal of any CPE in the amount of Five Hundred and
00/100 Dollars ($500.00) per unit (i.e., per CPE
router); such amount shall be immediately due and
payable. Further, Xfone, at its option, may, upon
written notice thereof, take immediate possession of any
and all of the items of CPE owned by Xfone, wherever
situated, and for such purpose enter upon any premises
without liability for so doing and sell, dispose of,
hold, use or lease any items of CPE which have not been
fully paid for as Xfone in its sole discretion may
decide. If Xfone is unable to retrieve any items of CPE,
Customer shall be invoiced for the full, then current
sales price of such CPE.
Arbitration:
Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of,
connected with or relating to this Agreement, its
performance or the breach thereof which cannot be
settled by mutual agreement of the Parties shall be
resolved by final and binding arbitration by a panel of
three (3) arbitrators in accordance with and subject to
the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American
Arbitration Association ("AAA") then in effect with such
arbitration to be conducted in Jackson, Mississippi.
Following notice of a Party’s election to require
arbitration, each Party will within thirty (30) days
select one arbitrator, and those two arbitrators will
within thirty (30) days thereafter select a third
arbitrator. If the two arbitrators are unable to agree
on a third arbitrator within thirty (30) days, the AAA
will within thirty (30) days thereafter select such
third arbitrator. Discovery as permitted by the Federal
Rules of Civil Procedure then in effect will be allowed
to the extent consistent with the purpose of the
arbitration and as allowed by the arbitrators. Judgment
upon the award rendered in any arbitration may be
entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof, or
application may be made to such court for a judicial
acceptance of the award and enforcement, as the law of
the state having jurisdiction may require or allow.
The fact that arbitration is or may be allowed will not
impair the exercise of any termination rights under this
Agreement. The Parties agree that this arbitration
provision has been included to rapidly and inexpensively
resolve any disputes between them with respect to this
Agreement, and that this provision shall be grounds for
dismissal of any court action commenced by either Party
with respect to this Agreement, other than (i) actions
to compel a Party to comply with these dispute
resolution procedures; (ii) actions specified in this
provision; (iii) post-arbitration actions seeking to
enforce an arbitration award; (iv) a dispute,
controversy or claim relating to a breach or alleged
breach on the part of either Party regarding
confidential information; (v) a suit, action or
proceeding to compel a Party to comply with its
obligations to indemnify the other party pursuant to
this Agreement; or (vi) a suit, action or proceeding
arising out of or related to any Party’s intellectual
property rights. The Parties shall keep confidential,
and shall not disclose to any person, except as may be
required by law, the existence of any controversy
hereunder, the referral of any such controversy to
arbitration or the status or resolution thereof. The
procedures specified in this provision shall be the sole
and exclusive procedures for the resolution of an
arbitral dispute; provided, however, that a Party,
without prejudice to these procedures, may file a
complaint or seek a temporary restraining order,
preliminary injunction, or other provisional judicial
relief, if in its sole judgment such action is necessary
to avoid irreparable damage or to preserve the status
quo. Customer indemnifies Xfone for any costs associated
with Customer’s violation of this Arbitration provision.
General:
Customer acknowledges that it has not been induced to
enter into this Agreement by any representation or
warranty not set forth in this Agreement. This Agreement
contains the entire agreement of the parties with
respect to its subject matter and supersedes all
existing agreements and all other oral, written or other
communications between them concerning its subject
matter. This Agreement shall not be modified in any way
except by a writing subscribed to by both parties. This
Agreement is not assignable by Customer except with
Xfone’s express written consent, without which, any such
assignment or attempted assignment shall be void. If any
provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity,
legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions
shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
The headings in the Agreement are intended for
convenience of reference and shall not affect its
interpretation. The waiver or failure of Xfone to
exercise in any respect any right provided for in this
Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of that right or
any other right under this Agreement. The individual
executing this Agreement on behalf of Customer hereby
represents and warrants that he or she is duly
authorized by all necessary action to execute this
Agreement on behalf of Customer. All notices to Xfone
shall be in writing and shall be delivered or sent by
mail, requested to Customer Care Center, 2506 Lakeland
Drive, Suite 100 Jackson, MS 39232 or to such other
address as Xfone shall specify by notice given pursuant
hereto. Xfone shall not be liable or deemed to be in
default for any delay or failure to perform under this
Agreement or for interruption of service resulting
directly or indirectly, from Acts of God or any other
cause beyond Xfone’s reasonable control (Force Majeure).
EXCEPT AS SPECIFICALLY PROVIDED HEREIN, THERE ARE NO
WARRANTIES EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT
LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. • NEITHER XFONE NOR
ANY CPE, SERVICE, OR SOFTWARE PROVIDER TO XFONE WILL BE
LIABLE FOR ANY LOST OR ANTICIPATORY PROFITS OR REVENUES,
OR SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY OTHER INCIDENTAL
OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR FOR ANY CLAIM OR DEMAND
AGAINST CUSTOMER BY ANY OTHER PARTY, EVEN IF XFONE HAS
BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR
CLAIMS. • IN NO EVENT SHALL XFONE BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES
GREATER THAN THE SUM TOTAL OF PAYMENTS MADE BY CUSTOMER
TO XFONE DURING THE THREE (3) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY
PRECEDING THE EVENT FOR WHICH DAMAGES ARE CLAIMED.
This Agreement shall be governed by, construed, and
interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State
where the Services are rendered. Customer authorizes
Xfone to conduct an investigation of Customer’s credit
history for the purpose of determining Customer’s
creditworthiness for payment for the service(s) and
options. Customer agrees to pay all costs of collection,
including reasonable attorney’s fees, whether incurred
by suit or otherwise. Only an authorized officer of
Xfone may agree to modifications to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement. This Agreement may only be
executed by an authorized Xfone sales person, management
person or executive, and is subject to final credit
approval.
Long Distance Service:
The rates and long distance service for both residential
and business customers under this Agreement are
contingent upon the Customer’s election to receive
Xfone’s local telephone service. If Customer cancels its
local telephone services, Customer’s long distance
service will also be canceled immediately.
Residential Service -
Unlimited Long Distance Policy:
Call detail is currently not available with the
unlimited long distance service plans. Customers must be
subscribers to one of Xfone’s bundled service plans that
includes local telephone services and unlimited long
distance service and receive billing for these plans
from the Xfone. Those plans that apply are: UNLIMITED,
BASIC and XTRA. Subscribers to these plans may use the
service only for typical residential voice usage and may
not use it for extended Internet or data calling.
Subscribers to this plan cannot use it for any
commercial use. Customer lines associated with
educational institutions, (colleges, universities, etc.)
are not eligible for this plan. Unlimited plan usage
does not include multi-party conference calls, calls to
900 numbers, directory assistance, calling card,
operator services, international calling and toll free
calling services. If Xfone determines that usage under
this plan is not consistent with typical Residential
Customer usage as described herein, the Customer will be
subject to an additional fee of $50.00 per month or
offered an alternative plan at the Company's sole
discretion. For the purposes of this plan, usage of more
than 1,000 minutes per month shall be considered not to
be typical residential usage.
