offices at 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, XX 00000 ("Customer"), and UUNET

Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, XX 00000 ("UUNET").
UUNET and Customer are parties to an agreement for dial-up Internet access

"ISA"), which states the general terms and conditions applying to the ISA, and
the Amended and Restated Services Order Form VIP Dial Service dated May 24,
2002.
This A&R SOF consists of three parts. Part I sets out the terms that apply to
dial-up access service over both regular and toll-free telephone numbers. Part
II sets out the terms that apply only to the service provided over regular
(i.e., not toll-free) telephone numbers. Part III sets out the terms that apply
only to service provided over the toll-free telephone numbers.
This A&R SOF does not assume the first Amended and Restated Service Order Form

AGREEMENT
This A&R SOF is submitted pursuant to the Internet Services Agreement dated
April 25, 2001, also referred to herein as the "ISA"), sets forth the terms and
conditions for the provision of wholesale dial-up service by UUNET, a WorldCom
company whose services are allocated to the MCI operating unit of WorldCom,
Inc., specifically as MCI Internet Wholesale to Customer. Words and phrases
defined in that Internet Services Agreement have the same meaning in this
Amended and Restated Service Order. This Amendment is effective when signed by
both parties and on that date, it replaces and terminates the 5/24/02 Amended
and Restated Service Order Form.
PART I
GENERAL TERMS FOR VIP SERVICE
1. APPLICATION OF PART I TERMS. The terms in this Part I apply to all VIP
Service provided by UUNET to Customer under this Amendment.
2. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICE. Under this Service Order, Customer will

VIP Service. Support is provided in the English language only and may
involve a long distance telephone call charge that will be borne by
Customer. UUNET also will provide Customer with a direct number and
e-mail address at the UUNET Network Operations Center ("NOC") in the UK

and operate the RADIUS server in a secure environment and following
appropriate practices to ensure that the Server is available for and
accurately performs End User authentication, as required by Customer.
In particular, Customer will equip and operate the RADIUS server with
software protocols that are fully compatible with UUNET's network
facilities. UUNET represents that any change in the software protocols
required of Customer will apply generally to customers using the same
network facilities and not solely to Customer. Customer also will use
appropriate software, procedures and safeguards to ensure that only
accurate routing information is transmitted from Customer's RADIUS
server to UUNET network facilities, and will remedy immediately any
problems resulting in transmission of incorrect routing information
where Customer is made aware or ought in all the circumstances to be
aware of such problems. In addition, Customer agrees to assign each End
User a unique identifier (e.g., an identification number) for billing
purposes, the structure of which must be approved by UUNET.
4. FORECASTS. Customer recognizes UUNET's reliance upon the reasonable
accuracy of usage forecasts for network expansion and engineering.

hours for the next six months. Customer also will provide UUNET with
advance notice (as soon as it is available) of any expected increase to
the future load on any UUNET network facility, particularly with
respect to expected loads in particular geographical locations and
POPS.
5. TERM. The term of this Amendment ends July 31, 2004 ("Service Term").
At the completion of the Service Term, it will automatically be
extended each month for an additional month, unless either party has

days advance notice.

whatever other logo is established by UUNET for similar purposes)
solely to identify UUNET as the source of the VIP Service in connection
with Customers sales and marketing activities to End Users. UUNET may
grant Customers request at its sole discretion. Customer's use of any
such logo will be in strict compliance with the instructions or
guidelines provided by UUNET. Customer's right to use that logo may be
revoked by UUNET at any time. Customer's breach of this Section is a
material breach of this Amendment constituting cause for termination.
7. RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES. No agency, partnership, joint venture or
employment is created because of the ISA and Amendment. Neither party
is authorized to bind the other in any respect whatsoever.
8. INTERNET PROTOCOL NUMBERS. An Internet Protocol number ("IP Number") is
assigned by UUNET Internet Wholesale to each End User using the VIP
Service, for use by that End User only, to connect to the Internet
during that dial-up session only, no other use of an IP Number is
permitted. Neither the Customer nor the End User has any other interest
in or right to the IP Numbers. UUNET may terminate an End User's use of
an IP Number, at its sole discretion, at any time.

the Services to Customer. In such case, UUNET shall immediately notify
Customer of such suspension and provide Customer an opportunity to
investigate and report upon such violation. If Customer is unable to
remedy such violation, or threat of violation, to UUNET's reasonable
satisfaction, UUNET may terminate the Amendment. Customer shall not be
responsible for any Minimum Annual Fee that may become due subsequent
to termination of the Amendment pursuant to this Section 9.
10. INVOICING. Within 30 days of the end of each calendar month, UUNET
shall invoice customer for services used during the preceding month.
The parties agree to enter into good faith discussions to establish,
when commercially reasonable, the goal of billing the customer from
each individual country where services was provided. Customer is not
responsible for payment on any invoice that has not been submitted to
Customer within 90 days of the end of any calendar month. Where billing
has not migrated to in-country local currency, charges will be
converted to and invoiced in U.S. dollars, using the currency
calculator at: xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxx.xxx/xxxxxxx/xxxxxxxx/xxxxxxxx.xxxx.
11. BILLING DISPUTE. If Customer reasonably disputes an invoiced amount
Customer may withhold such amount from Customers payment or submit a
claim to UUNET if (i) Customer provides to UUNET, within thirty (30)
days after the date of invoice, written notice of the dispute, of the
disputed amounts and of the reason for such dispute; and (ii) Customer
pays all invoiced amounts not subject to such dispute by the due date.
Customer may submit customer's own accounting records to support
Customers dispute. The parties will cause authorized representatives to
meet within fifteen (15) days after Customers notice of dispute to
negotiate in good faith to resolve the dispute. If such representatives
have not resolved the dispute within five (5) days after their first
meeting, the parties will cause their authorized senior-management
level executives to meet within fifteen (15) days to negotiate in good
faith to resolve the dispute. If such senior-management level
executives have not resolved the dispute within ten (10) days after
their first meeting, the parties will either decide mutually to
continue negotiations or, if either party does not desire to continue
negotiations, each party may exercise its available remedies with
respect to the disputed amounts. To the extent that a dispute
resolution requires payment of disputed amounts, Customer shall pay
such disputed amounts promptly after the dispute is resolved. For
purposes of clarification, the pre-session time associated with each
toll-free call (i.e., the time spent attempting to connect) is billable
to Customer and may not form the basis of any billing dispute.

ISDN access standards: V34, V90, ISDN V120, and ISDN synchronous PPP.
The UUNET network access servers ("NAS") will support the following: VJ
Compression, V42bis Compression, NAS assignment of full Internet
compliant IP addresses to End Users from a UUNET pool of registered IP
addresses, and NAS assignment of Primary and Secondary Domain Name
Servers. In light of the advances in technology, UUNET reserves the
right to alter, vary and replace all of the preceding standards and
methods as and when, at its sole discretion, UUNET determines. UUNET
shall notify the Customer as and when such variation takes place, if
UUNET deems it necessary to do so. If any variation or replacement as
set forth herein has an adverse impact upon Customers service, Customer
and UUNET shall mutually agree upon an appropriate reduction in
Customer Minimum Annual Fee. For purposes of this Section 17, an
"adverse impact" means any change to the preceding standards and
methods which reduces Customer's ability to use the Toll-Free VIP
Services by more than ten percent (10%) based upon the average actual;
Usage of Customer's End Users (i.e., the access methods they used) in
the three full months prior to such change. Average Monthly Latency of
no more than 85 milliseconds (ms) roundtrip within UUNET's European
backbone. The latency number above represents the average network
latency seen on UUNET's network during the course of a month. The
calculation of latency is made using data collected via the Network
Time Protocol (NTP). The latency statistics are gathered by routers
located in a number of key backbone hubs geographically dispersed
throughout Europe. All measurement routers gather the latency
statistics hourly each day, and a daily average latency value is
derived from the hourly samples.
