The term of this Agreement ("Term") begins on the Service Commencement Date (defined below) and continues for the duration of the service period as defined by the service plan ("Plan") that is selected by End User. The "Service Commencement Date" is the earlier of (i) the date VCI enables the Services and they become available for use, or (ii) 10 days after installation; if End User self-installs the Equipment, billing for the Service commences on the earliest of (x) the day on which End User picked up the Equipment at VCI's service center, (y) the day End User installed the Service, or (z) five (5) days after the date VCI shipped the Equipment to End User. At the end of the Term, the Term is automatically renewed for a service period equal to the immediately-prior service period unless End User provides VCI, at least 30 days before to the end of the current Term, notification of intention to cancel the service. End User agrees to pay for Services for the duration of the Term. Expiration of the Term or termination of Service will not excuse End User from paying all accrued and unpaid charges due under this Agreement. If End User chooses to cancel the service before the end of the current Term, disconnection fees and early termination liability may apply as set forth herein and/or in the applicable Plan.

4. EQUIPMENT.

VCI shall provide equipment to End User to use the Services ("Equipment"). Equipment shipments are FOB VCI's facility.

5. 911 & SERVICE LIMITATIONS.

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) requires that VCI provide E911 Service to all End Users who use VCI services within the United States

  1. 911 Acknowledgement and Labels. End User acknowledges that VCI'S equipment and services do not support 911 Emergency Dialling or other Emergency functions in the same way that traditional wire line 911 services work. The End User is directed that the 911 service is unreliable and may not work if and when needed. The service should not be the primary means of the End User or other users to make 911 calls and the End User should inform all household residents, guests, and other third parties who may be present at the physical location where you use the 911 Service, of the limitations of the 911 Service. If end user does not correctly identify the actual location where the VCI equipment will be located at the time of activation of the service, VCI E911 communications may not be directed to the correct local emergency operator. End User agrees to place a label on or near each telephone. These labels will be provided by VCI and if additional labels are required, End User may request them from VCI. VCI will provide End User with advisory notices regarding the 911 Emergency dialling and request acknowledgements from End User. End User agrees to respond and affirmatively acknowledge that VCI has advised End User of the circumstances under which VCI E911 service may not be available or may be limited in comparison to traditional 911 emergency dialling. VCI advises End User to maintain an alternative means of accessing traditional 911 services.
  2. Service Interruptions. VCI strives to provide perfect and uninterrupted service, however many factors beyond our control can affect service quality. End User acknowledges that there is no service uptime or voice quality guarantee. The Service is bandwidth dependent and the quality of the service is connected to the quality of the internet connection and therefore fluctuations in the broadband service might engender a reduced quality of service. End user acknowledges and understands that VCI will in no circumstances be liable for any service outage and/or inability to dial 911 due to the 911 dialling characteristics and limitations set forth in this agreement. End user agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless VCI, its officers, directors, employees, affiliates, and agents and any other service provider who furnishes services to End User in connection with the Services, from any and all claims, losses, damages, fines, penalties, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) relating to the failure or outage of the Equipment or Services, including those related to 911 dialling, and those by, or on behalf of, any third party or user of the Services or Equipment.
  3. Non-Voice Systems. End user acknowledges that the services are not set up to function without dialling systems including home security systems, medical monitoring equipment, TTY equipment, and entertainment or satellite television systems. End user has no claim against VCI for interruption or disruption of such systems by the services.
  4. Physical Location of Equipment. VCI E911 service is a mandatory component of all inbound/outbound fax and voice service plans. E911 service is not offered on virtual numbers, toll-free numbers or similar service accessories or add-on plans. E911 service is only available in selected areas. End users who subscribe to VCI E911 service will be required to register the physical location of their equipment with VCI, either on the www.unovon.com website or by calling customer service, and agree to update the location whenever the physical location of service changes. End user acknowledges that VCI's only mechanism for routing 911 calls to the correct emergency call taker is the physical location currently registered for that account. End user acknowledges and understands that any enhanced location information passed to an emergency operator by VCI will be based upon the physical location provided to VCI by End User. In the event that the physical location has not been updated or is not complete, VCI may attempt to route a 911 call based upon the bill-to or ship-to addresses associated with the End User's account or initial order.
  5. E911 Service Charge. End Users who are required to subscribe to VCI E911 service will be subject to a monthly E911 service charge of $1.99. The monthly E911 service fee shall be in addition to the applicable residential or business plan charges for the associated line. The monthly charge for VCI E911 service is assessed on a "per-line" basis (that is, per phone number basis), and will be set at a level that reimburses VCI for the direct costs it incurs in providing E911 service, automatic location information (ALI) database storage, line information database and caller id (LIDB/CNAM) expenses, and any other taxes or surcharges directly or indirectly associated with the provision of services to end users subscribing to the Services. VCI reserves the right to adjust the level of charges associated with the provision of E911 services to reflect increases or decreases in the costs it incurs and End User agree to pay any adjusted charges for E911 services assessed by VCI, without any advance notice given. This is over and above, the state and county E911 fee that may be collected for the E911 emergency broadcast and transmitting systems that can pinpoint the end users physical address.
  6. E911 Differences. End User also acknowledges that VCI E911 service has certain characteristics that distinguish it from traditional, legacy, circuit-switched 911 services. These characteristics may make E911 services unsuitable for some end users. Because end user circumstances vary widely, end users should carefully evaluate their own circumstances when deciding whether to rely solely upon E911 service. End User acknowledges that it is End User's responsibility to determine the technology or combination of technologies best suited to meet End User's emergency calling needs, and to make the necessary provisions for access to emergency calling services (such as maintaining a conventional landline phone or wireless phone as a backup means of completing emergency calls.) The following are some characteristics that distinguish E911 service from traditional, legacy, circuit-switched 911 service:

    ** VCI E911 services will not function if End User's Equipment, phone or videophone fails or is not configured correctly or if Services provided by VCI are not functioning for any reason, including, but not limited to, electrical power outage, or suspension or disconnection of service because of billing or other issues. If there is a power outage, End User may be required to reset or reconfigure the equipment before being able to use the Services, including for E911 purposes.

    ** After initial activation of the E911 service, and following any change of and update to End User's physical location, there may be some delay before the automatic number and location information is passed to the local emergency service operator. This information is typically populated into our nomadic E911 databases prior to service activation, but no guarantee can be made that the automatic number and location information will be activated within this schedule.

    ** The local emergency service operator receiving E911 emergency service calls may not have a system configured for E911 services or be able to capture and/or retain automatic number or location information. This means that the operator may not know the phone number or physical location of the person who is making the E911 call. Due to technical factors in network design, and in the event of network congestion on the VCI network, there is a possibility that a VCI 911 call will produce a busy signal or will experience unexpected answering wait times and/or take longer to answer than 911 calls placed via traditional, legacy, circuit-switched telephone networks.

6. BILLING, CHARGES AND PAYMENT

  1. Toll Charges. Every call to or from Equipment using the Services that originates or terminates in the Public Switched Telephone Network ("PSTN"), including other VoIP networks, is subject to the then-applicable toll charges that are associated with the Plan. Calls to a phone number outside the United States and Canada to a non-VCI telephone number will be charged at the then-current rates published on the VCI web site. The duration of each call is to be calculated in one minute increments and rounded up to the nearest one minute increment for any fraction of minutes used. All charges and taxes calculated to a fractional cent shall be rounded up to the nearest whole cent. When End User dials an International PSTN phone number, charges may apply regardless of whether the party on the other line answers the call. Calls made by an End User to an International mobile, rather than landline or premium rate telephone number may result in higher toll charges. VCI's advertised rates for international calls are generally the rates charged for calls to landline telephones. Some calls to international mobile telephones, or to international telephone numbers considered to be special services calls, are charged a different (usually higher) rate than calls to landline telephones. The rates End User will be charged are set forth in the calling plan rate tables.
  2. Residential Plans. VCI residential plans are for End User's own personal, residential, non-business and non-professional use. This means that End User agrees not to use, and may not use, the Service for any commercial activities, governmental activities, profit-making activities, and/or non-profit activities, including but not limited to home office, business, sales, tele-commuting, tele-marketing, auto-dialling, continuous or extensive call forwarding, call relaying, fax broadcast, fax blasting and any other activity that would be inconsistent with normal residential usage patterns by any and all residential plans including unlimited plans. This also means that End User agree not to, and may not, sell, resell or transfer the Service to any other person for any purpose, or make any charge for the use of the Service, without the prior express written permission from VCI. End User agrees that if VCI determines in its sole discretion that End User has used the Service, and/or anyone else has used the Service for any activities and purposes prohibited by this section it may immediately charge End User VCI's higher rates for its business service for all periods, including past periods, in which End User uses, or used, the Service for such prohibited activities together with a US$100.00 administrative fee for same, and that VCI may immediately charge such amounts on End User's credit card. VCI reserves the right to immediately terminate or modify the Service, if VCI determines, in its sole discretion, that the Service is being used for such prohibited activities or in any other manner prohibited by this Agreement. In addition to and without prejudicing or waiving any other remedies that it is entitled to, VCI, after it has determined in its sole discretion that End User has violated this residential agreement, VCI may retroactively charge End User $.05 per minute for all US and Canadian calls made since the activation of End User's account. Violations of this agreement regarding international calls will likewise be retroactively billed at the then-current published rates. End User agrees that any payment made to VCI pursuant to this section is made as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, because it would be difficult if not impossible to ascertain damages. In the event that VCI has to take legal action to enforce the provisions of this section, the prevailing party shall be entitled to its reasonable expenses, including attorney's fees, regardless of whether in house or outside counsel is employed. If in house counsel is employed, billing shall be at the rate of $30 per hour and billed in six minute increments. VCI reserves the right to block service for activations from IP addresses outside of the territorial United States. VCI governs all the plans (Residential and Business) by a fair usage policy.
  3. Payment. Upon subscription to the Services, End User must provide VCI with a valid credit card number from a credit issuer that is accepted by VCI. End User authorizes VCI to charge the credit card number provided by End User ("Credit Card") for all charges arising from End User's use of the Services. End User agrees to notify VCI of any change to the credit card information including, but not limited to, changes in account number, expiration date or billing address. VCI shall not be responsible for any charges made by the Credit Card issuer to End User's Credit Card account for exceeding a credit limit, insufficient funds or other reasons. With respect to Equipment, End User's credit card will be charged when the Equipment is shipped, but may be pre-authorized prior to shipment. Estimated ship dates are approximate and are not guaranteed. End User may cancel any order due to shipping delays without charge.
  4. Credit Terms. All Services provided to End User and covered by the Agreement shall at all times be subject to credit approval or review by VCI. End User will provide such credit information or assurance as is requested by VCI at any time. VCI, in its sole discretion and judgment, may discontinue credit at any time without notice or require a deposit.
  5. Billing. VCI will provide End User with a monthly on-line billing statement for the Services and bill all charges invoiced to End User's account to the Credit Card. Such charges shall include activation fees, monthly service fees, shipping charges, disconnection fees, equipment charges, toll charges, taxes and any other applicable charges. Monthly service fees are paid in advance of each month's service; toll charges and any other applicable charges are billed subsequent to the end of each month's service. VCI reserves the right to charge the Credit Card for charges due if at any time End User's cumulative charges for the current month exceed fifty dollars ($50.00). Billing for monthly service fees commences upon purchase of the Services on the web site, and the first month's monthly service fee shall be prorated to take into account any partial month that may occur as the result of the date monthly service fees are initiated. Activation for Retail customers occurs after End User activates the services on the VCI web site.
  6. Communication with End User. Company will use the email address of End User for notification of billing actions, service requests, support, and relationship messages. End User is responsible for ensuring the email address with Company is available for receipt of electronic messages. Relationship messages (such as newsletters) will be sent either to the email address or physical address of End User. End User can request to "opt out" of relationship messages.
  7. Late/Non-Payment. If any charges for the Services are due but unpaid for any reason including, but not limited to, non-payment or declined Credit Card charges, VCI may suspend or terminate the Services and all accrued charges shall be immediately due, plus a late fee of the lesser of 1.5% per month or the maximum allowed by law accrued from the date of invoice until payment in full is received by VCI. If charges cannot be processed to the Credit Card, End User will be charged a fee of $10.00. The fee will also be charged to activate a suspended account. No suspension or termination of the Services or of this Agreement shall relieve End User from paying any amounts due hereunder.
  8. Taxes. Prices for the Services do not include any customs duties, sales, use, value added, excise, federal, state, local, public utility, universal service or other similar taxes or surcharges. All such taxes or surcharges shall be paid by End User and will be added to any amounts otherwise charged to End User unless End User provides VCI with an appropriate exemption certificate. If any amounts paid for the Services are refunded by VCI, applicable taxes may not be refundable.
  9. Regulatory Recovery Fee. A Regulatory Recovery Fee of $2.99 plus applicable taxes will be charged monthly to offset costs incurred by VCI in complying with inquiries and obligations imposed by federal, state and municipal regulatory bodies/governments and the related legal and billing expenses. This fee is not a tax or charge required or assessed by any government. The Regulatory Recovery Fee will apply to every phone number assigned, including toll free and virtual numbers.
  10. Universal Service Fee (USF): Telecommunications Act, 1996 mandates Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to collect the USF from VCI, a telecommunications service provider. This fee applies to all telephone calls - within the state, from one state to another and international for all 50 US states and other territories. This fee may change from time to time (generally once per quarter).
  11. Trial Period.
    VCI offers a fourteen (14) day trial period ("Trial Period") to new End Users for their first VCI account. The Trial Period commences upon the purchase of Services by End User on the VCI web site. If End User is not satisfied with the Services during the Trial Period, End User may obtain a refund of the equipment and activation fee but not the monthly service fee. Applicable taxes will be refunded to the extent allowed by law. Shipping charges will not be refunded. To obtain a refund, End User must: a) Notify VCI within fourteen (14) days of purchase of the Services on the web site and obtain a return material authorization number from VCI for the Equipment and b) Return the Equipment to VCI within seven (7) days of cancellation of the Services in its original, unaltered condition with all packaging intact. If the equipment is not returned in its original, unaltered condition with all packaging intact within seven (7) days of cancellation of service VCI holds the rights to: a) deny the refund for the equipment cost and b) Charge the End User an amount equal to the instant rebate given for any equipment during sign up.

The arbitrator may not award punitive, exemplary or similar damages. The parties agree that an award of such damages will be void if issued. No dispute may be joined with another legal action, or in arbitration with a dispute of any other person, or resolved on a class-wide basis. The Arbitrator may not award any damages that are not expressly set forth in this agreement and, in the absence of a statute, may not award punitive damages or attorney's fees.
  3. Fees and Expenses of Arbitration. Each party must pay its own expenses associated with any arbitration, including its attorneys' fees.
