conditions set forth in this Amendment. If the terms and conditions set forth in

LPAR through December 31, 2004. Customer desires, and CSG agrees to provide an
increase in the capacity in accordance with the chart set forth below (“Customer
Additional Capacity”) for January 1 through December 31, 2005. Therefore, for

2005, Customer shall provide CSG with ninety (90) days prior written notice.
Upon receipt of Customer’s written notice, CSG shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to re-deploy the additional capacity during the remainder of the

Customer shall not be responsible for the remaining monthly fees (set forth in
Paragraph 2 below) associated with the additional capacity. However, if CSG is
unable to re-deploy the additional capacity, Customer agrees to pay the
