4.1.3 The Parties agree that IP-enabled (including, without limitation, voice over Internet protocol (“VoIP”)) traffic
between them in the mobile-to-land and the land-to-mobile direction shall be treated as Telecommunications
traffic for purposes of this Agreement, and compensation for such traffic shall be based on the jurisdictional
end points of the call. Accordingly, no additional or separate measurement or tracking of IP-enabled traffic
shall be necessary.
4.1.4 The IntraMTA traffic delivered to the other Party by a third party carrier is de minimis at this time. At such
time either Party can substantiate that such traffic is no longer de minimis, the terms and conditions for this

4.2.1 Compensation rates for Interconnection are contained in the Pricing Schedule attached hereto.
4.2.2 Compensation for Local Authorized Services Interconnection:
4.2.2.1 Compensation for Section 251(b)(5) Calls, Transport and Termination. Subject to the limitations
set forth below in Section 4.2.3 below, AT&T LOUISIANA shall compensate WSP for the transport
and termination of Section 251(b)(5) Calls originating on AT&T LOUISIANA’s network and
terminating on WSP’s network. WSP shall compensate AT&T LOUISIANA for the transport and
termination of Section 251(b)(5) Calls originating on WSP’s network and terminating on AT&T
LOUISIANA’s network. The rates for this reciprocal compensation are set forth in the Pricing
Schedule attached hereto.
4.2.2.2 For purposes of this section, “Qualifying Traffic” means Section 251(b)(5) Calls traffic and mobileto-land
ISP-Bound Traffic, as defined in General Terms and Conditions Section 2 “Definitions of
this Agreement” originated and terminated between ATT LOUISIANA and WSP. Qualifying Traffic
does not include IntraLATA Toll Traffic, Meet Point Billing Traffic, InterMTA Traffic, Transit Traffic
or Terminating InterMTA Traffic. Upon mutual agreement that Qualifying Traffic between the
Parties has been within +-5% of equilibrium (50%) for 3 consecutive months, Bill and Keep shall be
implemented prospectively as the reciprocal compensation arrangement for Qualifying Traffic so
long as Qualifying Traffic exchanged remains within +/-5% of equilibrium (“In Balance”). Cricket
reserves its rights to modify this Section 4.2.2.2 and sub-sections 4.2.2.2.1, 4.2.2.2.2, 4.2.2.2.3,
4.2.2.2.4, 4.2.2.2.5, 4.2.2.2.6, 4.2.2.2.7, 4.2.2.2.8, 4.2.2.2.9, and 4.2.2.2.10 consistent with the
Commission’s findings in a final and effective order in Docket No. U-31350 (“Commission Order”)
in accordance with Sections 39.2 and 39.3 of the General Terms and Conditions. Notwithstanding
the fact that such a Commission Order may not constitute Intervening Law as set forth in Section
21 of the General Terms and Conditions of this Agreement, the Parties will implement any such
modification via an amendment to this Agreement pursuant to the timelines and procedures set
forth therein. Both Parties reserve their rights to modify this language pursuant to any appeals
resulting from Docket No. U-31350.
4.2.2.2.1 The calculation for determining whether traffic is In Balance will be based on the
difference between the total Qualifying Traffic originated by each Parties End Users
terminated to the other Parties End Users, divided by the sum of both Parties’ End
Users’ terminated Qualifying Traffic multiplied by 100.
4.2.2.2.2 If bill and keep is implemented pursuant to subsection 4.2.2.2 above and Qualifying
Traffic is thereafter determined to be not In Balance for three (3) consecutive months,
bill and keep shall no longer apply and $0.0007 per MOU shall immediately apply to all
Qualifying Traffic.
4.2.2.2.3 Once $0.0007 applies to Qualifying Traffic pursuant to subsection 4.2.2.2.2 above, it will
apply for the remaining term of this Agreement.
