Service, the Service Term will automatically renew for successive one year terms unless terminated by either Customer upon written notice given at

charges shall be due at the address shown on the invoice no later than 30 days after the postmark date of the invoice (`Due Date"). Any amounts not
paid on or before the Due Date ("Delinquent Charges") may be subject to a late charge of 1.50% per month or, if in place, such generally applicable late
payment rate as Parallax Systems may set pursuant to applicable regulatory requirements, whichever is higher ("Late Charge"). In addition to monthly
charge(s), the Customer will pay charges that would be applicable to comparable services obtained from the incumbent local exchange carrier, federal,
state or local use, excise, sales, or privilege taxes. Unless different treatment is required by applicable regulations, adjustments for billing errors will be
limited to 90 days from the date the billing error is discovered. Parallax Systems shall not be responsible for telephone numbers published prior to

payment will be an expense of and charged to the Customer.

electronic failure caused through no fault of the Customer. Upon termination of service, Customer shall return provided equipment to the Companies'
business office located at 2000 US Highway 27 South. At the Companies' discretion, Parallax Systems may choose to remove equipment at the Service
location and the Customer authorizes Parallax Systems to recover the equipment from Service premises during reasonable hours. In the event

Important Information RegardingVoIP
First Mile is, for purposes of 49 CFR Part 9, an Interconnected Voice over Internet Protocol ("VoIP")
service provider. First Mile's Service enables real-time, two-way voice communications, requires a
broadband connection from the Customer's location, requires use of First Mile's Equipment, and
permits the Customer to receive calls that originate on the public switched telephone network and to
terminate calls to the public switched telephone network.
Using traditional technology such as landline and wireless phones, many calls placed to 911 will
convey voice communication as well as data communication. That is, in addition to the voice
communication between the 911 caller and the 911 operator, data is communicated to the public
safety answering point where the 911 operator answers the 911 call. Typically, the data includes the
actual physical location of the 911 caller, as well as the phone number from which the 911 caller is
calling. This feature is known as Enhanced 911, or E911, and requires some way of determining the
actual physical location of the 911 caller.
For wireline E911, the actual physical location can be automatically determined by consulting an
electronic database. For wireless E911, the actual physical location is determined by determining the
origination of a call by wireless technology.
Because VoIP technology conveys voice and data transmission differently from traditional landline
and wireless technology, the 911 operator would not be able to determine the location of the 911
caller without additional services provided by First Mile and other VoIP providers.
By entering the Agreement, you agree to submit to us the physical location at which you will utilize
our Services (the "Registered Location"). By providing us that information, should you use our
Services to place a 911 call, your telephone number and Registered Location will be sent to the
applicable public safety answering point serving your Registered Location. In the event your
physical location changes, you must notify us. If you change your physical location and fail to notify
us, your Registered Location will be sent to a public safety answering point near your old physical
location.
In addition, you may not be able to call 911 in the event of a broadband connection failure or loss of
electrical power, or if the Agreement is terminated..
By signing below, y u acknowledge having received and understood the information set forth herein.
