##  TELECONFERENCING SERVICES (cont.)

- The funding policy for ViTS and/or VoTS services will change effective _FY08_
- All cost estimates developed after September 30, 2007**,** will include charges to the customer for labor and travel costs for engineering and operations (from a different NISN gateway) to support implementation of a new ViTS and VoTS systems.  These charges will be in addition to equipment, network services, and maintenance of new rooms.  While NISN plans to fund labor for designing new ViTS and VoTS conference rooms, extensive projects may require customer funding.
- NISN will charge customers for all costs associated with expediting implementation of ViTS and VoTS systems.
- NISN will charge customers for labor costs associated with dedicated on site support of critical ViTS/VoTS meetings. (Requires the issuance of an NISN Service Request (NSR))
- The cost of a full replacement system for all Video Roll-About (VRA) and Desktop Video Appliance (DVA) systems has been projected as customer funded in the year that the _*current *_warranty expires.
-  If customers *decline* to fund replacement systems, NISN will **not** be able to guarantee service levels but will attempt to repair systems at the customer’s expense
- Customers may elect to opt into a new maintenance plan (discussed in next slide) after the warranty expires. Depending on the age of the equipment, the maintenance plan may not be available for the room system without first upgrading the room equipment.

## TELECONFERENCING SERVICES (cont.)

_**ViTS **__**/ VoTS**__** MAINTENANCE FEE**_
- A maintenance fee **of 17% of the initial implementation cost** will be included in all cost estimates for new ViTS  (full service rooms, VRA, and DVA) implementations.
**A maintenance fee of 17% of the initial implementation cost will be included in all cost estimates for new VoTS implementations.**** **
- Customers may elect to opt into the maintenance plan for existing rooms. Depending on the age of the equipment, the maintenance plan may not be available for the room system without first upgrading the room equipment.
- Requirements documents will be updated to reflect the new maintenance plan
- Note:  Actual cost will be evaluated periodically during the year which may reduce the maintenance fee.
