Frequently Asked Questions

SCOPE
These terms and conditions apply to the provision of all telecommunications and related services ("Services") by VOZONE, LLC., on behalf of itself and its operating affiliates ("VoZone") to Customer under the service agreement ("Agreement") to which this schedule is a part. The Services will be offered in each area to the Customer by VoZone or by an entity (the "Authorized Entity"), which is an affiliate of VoZone authorized to provide the Services in the applicable jurisdiction. The terms and conditions of this Agreement are, and shall be, applicable to the Services provided to the Customer by each Authorized Entity.

TERM
The Agreement shall be effective on the Effective Date indicated on the first page of the Agreement. The term of the Agreement shall commence upon the later of (i) installation of the initial Service or (ii) the Effective Date, and shall continue in full force and effect for the time period indicated on the first page of the Agreement ("Term"), unless earlier terminated in accordance with its terms. After expiration of the Term, the Agreement shall renew automatically for successive renewal terms, each for a period of time equal to the original Term, unless either Party serves the other Party with written notice of such Party's intent not to renew the Agreement at least thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the then current Term. VoZone's provision of Services is contingent upon Customer's compliance with VoZone's credit requirements, which requirements may be revised during the Term hereof in VoZone's sole reasonable discretion.

RATES AND CHARGES
a) The rates and charges for the Services shall be those set forth in the rate schedule to the Agreement (the "Rate Schedule") or other appropriate schedule thereto and/or VoZone's tariffs, as applicable and as amended from time to time. The rates and charges in the Rate Schedule apply only to the Services provided at the service address listed on the Rate Schedule of the Agreement. Each additional Customer location added after the Effective Date of the Agreement shall require its own rate schedule. For any VoZone service used by Customer for which a rate is not specified in the Agreement, VoZone's standard business rate shall apply.

b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Customer guarantees to VoZone payment of a minimum monthly fee in the amount set forth on the first page of the Agreement ("Minimum Monthly Fee"). For each month Customer agrees to pay the greater of (i) the total amount otherwise due for the month for all Services and any Equipment provided under the Agreement, or (ii) the Minimum Monthly Fee. Compliance with the Minimum Monthly Fee shall be based on Customer's Service charges prior to application of any taxes or surcharges.

TAXES AND SURCHARGES
In addition to the rates and charges for the Service(s), Customer shall be responsible for payment of all local, state and federal taxes, fees and surcharges, however designated, imposed on or based upon the provision, sale, or use of the Services. Customer shall be responsible for the payment of all surcharges in effect from time to time, including but not limited to USF, PICC, and pay-phone surcharges, as required or permitted by applicable law, regulation or tariff and/or as specified on the VoZone website at www.vozone.com To the extent a sale is claimed to be subject to a tax exemption, and Customer provides VoZone with a proper tax exemption certificate as authorized or required by statute or regulation of the jurisdiction providing said tax exemption, VoZone agrees to exempt Customer from the collection of taxes to the extent warranted by such certificate(s). Failure to timely provide said certificate will result in no exemption being available to Customer for any period prior to the date that the Customer presents a valid certificate.

BILLING AND PAYMENT
Billing for a Service shall commence on the earlier of: (i) use of the Service by Customer; or (ii) thirty (30) days after delivery of the Service to Customer's service address. All bills are due and payable upon receipt. If Customer's bill is not paid by the date which is thirty (30) days after the invoice date listed on the bill (the "Due Date"), Customer also shall pay VoZone a monthly late charge amount equal to 1.5% of the unpaid balance due (or such lesser amount as is the maximum amount permitted under applicable law). Customer must provide VoZone with written notice of any disputed charge(s) within ninety (90) days after the invoice date listed on the bill or shall be deemed to have waived its rights to dispute the charges. If the dispute is filed on or before the Due Date for the respective invoice, Customer shall pay the invoiced amount minus the disputed amount by the Due Date. Customer shall have no right to withhold amounts not disputed by the Due Date, provided that payment of an invoice shall not be deemed a waiver of Customer's rights to later dispute an invoice within the time period established in this Section. The dispute notice shall set forth in writing in reasonable detail the information concerning the disputed charges and reasons for the dispute. VoZone and Customer shall attempt in good faith to promptly resolve any objection to the invoiced amount. If the dispute is subsequently resolved in favor of VoZone, Customer shall pay the disputed amount previously withheld within ten (10) days of such resolution, including interest at the rate specified above from the original due date. If the dispute is subsequently resolved in favor of Customer, VoZone shall issue a credit on Customer's subsequent invoice for the disputed amount. If VozOne initiates legal proceedings to collect any amount due hereunder and VozOne substantially prevails in such proceedings then Customer shall pay the reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred by VozOne in prosecuting such proceedings and any appeals there from.

TERMINATION
a) A party may terminate the Agreement on thirty (30) days' written notice if the other party materially breaches the Agreement and such breaching party fails to cure the breach within such notice period, provided that the cure period for breach of any of Customer's payment obligations shall only be ten (10) days.

b) A party may terminate the Agreement upon written notice to the other party if (i) the other party dissolves or becomes insolvent or bankrupt; (ii) the other party makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; (iii) the other party suspends the transaction of its usual business or consents to the appointment of a trustee or receiver; (iv) a trustee or receiver of the other party is appointed; or (v) any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or similar proceeding is instituted by or against the other party and not dismissed within thirty (30) days.

c) If Customer (or any Customer affiliate) is in default of the terms of any other agreement between VoZone (or any VoZone affiliate) and Customer (or any Customer affiliate), including but not limited to any payment obligation to VoZone or its affiliates, then VoZone, at its sole option, may consider such default as a default under this Agreement and provide notice of default in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Customer further understands and agrees that any breach by Customer of its obligations under this Agreement shall also be deemed a breach by Customer of its obligations under any other agreements it (or any Customer affiliate) has entered into with VoZone and/or its affiliates and understands and agrees that any such breach shall authorize VoZone and/or any of its affiliates to immediately suspend performance under, and or terminate, said agreements with Customer (or Customer's affiliates) for default.

d) In addition to VoZone's remedies under Section 5 and Section 6(a) hereof, VoZone shall have the right on fifteen (15) days prior notice to immediately and without further notice suspend Services to Customer in the event of nonpayment by the Due Date of any charges not disputed in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.

TERMINATION LIABILITY
If the Agreement is terminated anytime after the Effective Date of the Agreement but prior to the expiration of the Term, except if terminated by Customer pursuant to Section 2 or 6 above, Customer shall pay to VoZone, immediately upon demand, (i) all sums then due and unpaid plus (ii) an amount equal to the Minimum Monthly Fee times the number of months left in the Term. No termination liability will apply in the event the Agreement is terminated by Customer pursuant to Section 2 or 6 above, however, in such event Customer shall be responsible for payment of all charges incurred prior to the termination date.

COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS
Each party shall comply with all applicable laws, regulations, court decisions or administrative rulings regarding the provision or use of the Services. Without limiting the foregoing, all customers that utilize the Services for the purpose of making telephone solicitations must comply with the national do-not-call requirements, including the rules as set forth in 47 C.F.R. Section 64.1200 and 16 C.F.R. Part 310. Failure to do so shall constitute a material breach of the Agreement.

UNAUTHORIZED USE OF SERVICES
Customer, and not VoZone, shall bear the risk of loss arising from any unauthorized or fraudulent usage of Services provided under the Agreement to Customer. VoZone reserves the right, but is not required, to take any and all action it deems appropriate (including blocking access to particular calling numbers or geographic areas) to prevent or terminate any fraud or abuse in connection with the Services, or any use thereof, provided, however, that any such action shall be consistent with applicable federal and state laws, rules, and regulations.

Any such delay or failure shall suspend the Agreement until the Force Majeure ceases.

RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES
Neither the Agreement nor the provision of Service hereunder shall be deemed to create any joint venture, partnership or agency between VoZone and Customer.

ENTIRE AGREEMENT
The Agreement, including these Standard Terms and Conditions and all other schedules referenced in the Agreement or at www.vozone.com and which are applicable to the Services purchased by the Customer, and any attached schedules signed by both parties, represents the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all other agreements, written or oral, between the Parties relating to the Service. Any modification to this Agreement shall be in writing signed by authorized representatives of both Parties.

This Agreement and any amendment of the terms hereof, may be signed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

WAIVER
No term or provision herein shall be waived, and no breach or default excused, unless such waiver or consent is in writing and signed by the Party to which it is attributed. No consent by a Party to, or waiver of, a breach or default by the other, whether expressed or implied, shall constitute a consent to or waiver of any subsequent breach or default.

CPNI
Under federal law, Customer has the right, and VoZone has a duty, to protect the confidentiality of information about the amount, type, and destination of Customer's service usage (CPNI). Customer hereby consents to the sharing of Customer's CPNI or other personal information with VOZONE, LLC. and its affiliates, agents and contractors, solely for the purpose of developing or bringing to Customer's attention any products and services, or in the event of any merger, sale of some or all of the company assets or acquisition as well as in any insolvency, bankruptcy or receivership proceeding in which CPNI or other personal information would be transferred as one of the business assets of the company. This consent survives the termination of Customer's Service and is valid until revoked by Customer. To remove this consent at any time, Customer must notify VoZone in writing at 3389 Sheridan Street, Suite 310, Hollywood, FL, 33021 Attn: Customer Service and provide the following information: (1) Customer name, (2) Service billing address, (3) telephone number including area code, and (4) service account number. Removing consent will not affect the Customer's current Service.

PARTIAL INVALIDITY
If any provision of the Agreement shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not invalidate or render the Agreement unenforceable, but rather the Agreement shall be construed as if not containing the invalid or unenforceable provision. However, if such provision is an essential element of the Agreement, the Parties shall promptly attempt to negotiate a substitute therefore.

ASSIGNMENT
Neither party may assign the Agreement without the written consent of the other party, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed; provided that no such consent shall be required for any assignment by a party to an entity that either controls or is controlled by or is under common control with that party; or to an entity which succeeds to all or substantially all of such party's assets whether by merger, sale or otherwise; or to any institutional lender to whom this Agreement is assigned as collateral security for any indebtedness of the assignor or any affiliate of the assignor. In the event of any assignment by Customer as permitted hereunder, the assignee must comply with VoZone's credit and security requirements..

GOVERNING LAW
The Agreement shall be interpreted, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delware without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Each party consents to personal jurisdiction in the state and federal courts of the State of Delaware.
