· PHI Acquisitions, Inc. Negotiated Service Agreement (1601.5)

1601.4		[Reserved]

1601.5		PHI Acquisitions, Inc. Negotiated Service Agreement

1601.5.1	Eligible Mail

PHI Acquisitions, Inc. Eligible Mail (PHI Eligible Mail) is flat-shaped USPS Marketing Mail within the High Density and Saturation Flats/Parcels and Carrier Route products, which bear a Full-service Intelligent Mail Barcode (IMb) and is sent by PHI and by entities in which PHI holds controlling shares, and by vendors on behalf of PHI.  Only PHI Eligible Mail is eligible for discounts.  At least 90 percent of PHI’s overall annual USPS Marketing Mail new titles or changes the permit numbers for existing titles to enter PHI Eligible Mail, PHI must notify the Postal Service within 30 days of the creation of the new permit number.

1601.5.2	Eligible Mail Thresholds and Calculations

The following adjusted volume thresholds for otherwise eligible mail, which bear a Full-service IMb, must be met before any rebates under this section are payable.  If PHI participates in any program in which discounts or rebates are based on the incremental volume of mail that PHI enters during the incentive period (Volume Based Incentive), it shall provide notice to the Postal Service specifying (in a manner acceptable to the Postal Service) (1) how it will account for the volume entered pursuant to such Volume Based Incentive and (2) the amounts of any such volumes that earn the incentive discount mailed by PHI or discounts earned by PHI as the result of its participation in such Volume Based Incentive.  Volumes and discounts from a Volume Based Incentive may be adjusted to ensure that discounts or incentives are not double-counted.  Any discounts, rebates earned, or volumes mailed by PHI pursuant to any incentive program which is not a Volume Based Incentive are not subject to deduction from the computation of volumes eligible for rebates or rebates pursuant to the Negotiated Service Agreement.

a. Baseline Volume

The Year One Baseline Volume is the aggregate volume of PHI Eligible Mail presented to the Postal Service in each of the 4 quarters in the 12 month period beginning October 1, 2012 and ending September 30, 2013, as adjusted by the Negotiated Service Agreement’s terms.

b. Annual Baseline Threshold Adjustment

The Baseline Volume shall be adjusted upward annually to account for the growth of PHI’s customer house file due to Negotiated Service Agreement incremental volume.

c. Annual Baseline Threshold Adjustment Calculation

The Annual Baseline Threshold Adjustment for Years Two through Five shall be calculated by multiplying the Annual Volume Growth by the Adjustment Factor (0.145) and adding it to the previous year’s Baseline Volume.  The Annual Baseline Threshold Adjustment for each Negotiated Service Agreement Baseline Quarter shall be the annual percentage increase in the Baseline Volume applied to each quarter’s baseline.

i. Annual Volume Growth – The Annual Volume Growth represents incremental volume above the Baseline Volume for the previous Agreement year.

ii. Adjustment Factor – The Adjustment Factor represents the average response rate for the incremental volume created by prospecting across all PHI titles (0.898 percent) multiplied by the number of times each new-to-file buyer is mailed a PHI title annually (16.13).  The Adjustment Factor is therefore 0.145 (0.00898 X 16.13).

iii. Review of Adjustment Factors – The Postal Service reserves the right, upon written request, to review the Adjustment Factor figures (the most recent 12 month mailings to new buyers to PHI’s house file and the analysis of the average incremental response rate) at any time during the term of the Negotiated Service Agreement.  PHI will provide the data and analysis of those Adjustment Factors within 45 days of such request in a form and method comparable to the data provided for the Negotiated Service Agreement.  After review, the Adjustment Factors may be revised by mutual agreement of the Parties, to be implemented for the next Agreement Year that begins 6 or more months after the data request; the revised Adjustment Factors will be used for all future such calculations unless they are further revised as specified herein.

d. Annual Volume Threshold

i. Year One Volume Threshold.  The volume threshold for Year One of the Negotiated Service Agreement is the Baseline Volume.

ii. Year Two Volume Threshold.  The volume threshold for Year Two of the Negotiated Service Agreement is:  Year One Annual Volume Growth x Adjustment Factor + Year One Volume Threshold.

iii. Year Three Volume Threshold.  The volume threshold for Year Three of the Negotiated Service Agreement is:  Year Two Annual Volume Growth x Adjustment Factor + Year Two Volume Threshold.

iv. Year Four Volume Threshold.  The volume threshold for Year Four of the Negotiated Service Agreement is:  Year Three Annual Volume Growth x Adjustment Factor + Year Three Volume Threshold.

v. Year Five Volume Threshold.  The volume threshold for Year Five of the Negotiated Service Agreement is:  Year Four Annual Volume Growth x Adjustment Factor + Year Four Volume Threshold.

1601.5.3	Rebate

The Negotiated Service Agreement rebate price structure set forth below applies only to PHI Eligible Mail and any such rebate will be credited to PHI’s permit or Centralized Account Processing System (CAPS) account.  PHI shall be eligible each Quarter for a discount in the form of a rebate on all PHI Eligible Mail above the Quarterly Baseline Volume for that quarter, subject to accounting adjustments, the amount of which shall be payable on a quarterly basis.  All mail that is entered under the Negotiated Service Agreement will pay the applicable published prices in effect at the time of mailing, subject to the quarterly rebate based on the following Agreement price schedule by tiers:

a. Calculation and Payment

The rebate shall be calculated as the difference between the postage actually paid at the time of entry and the postage that would have been paid under the above Agreement price schedule.  The quarterly rebate so calculated shall be paid to PHI within 45 days after the end of each Negotiated Service Agreement Baseline Quarter.

b. PHI Eligible Mail Accounting

PHI will provide the Postal Service with a list of the PostalOne! permit accounts and their locations that will determine PHI’s eligibility for discounts.  Permit accounts will be used in determining eligibility for discounts only upon the Postal Service’s written acknowledgement of their transmission from PHI.  The data in these permit accounts will be used to determine whether the Negotiated Service Agreement Baseline Quarter volumes and Agreement Year Threshold volumes have been reached and the volumes that qualify for rebates in the Negotiated Service Agreement.

1601.5.4	Penalties

In Agreement Year One, if PHI does not meet the Annual Baseline Threshold, as adjusted, PHI shall pay the Postal Service $100,000.00 and such penalty determination shall be made within 60 days of the end of said period.  If, at the end of any Agreement Year, PHI has not met the Annual Volume Threshold for that Agreement Year, the Postal Service may terminate the Agreement upon 30 days’ written notice.  Such termination shall be effective as of the first day of the next Agreement Quarter after notification.

1601.5.5	Acquisition or Creation of New Catalog Title

a.	The Quarterly Baseline Volumes and Annual Volume Thresholds will be adjusted when PHI acquires any existing catalog brand or title from another entity (Revised Quarterly Baseline Volumes and Revised Annual Volume Thresholds).

b.	The adjustment shall be based on mail volumes equal to 80 percent of the total USPS Marketing Mail flats mailed by the acquired catalog brand or title in each of the four most recent, completed Agreement Quarters preceding the closing date of acquisition.

c.	Volume of the acquired title will be added to the respective and current Quarterly Baseline Volumes starting with the next Agreement Quarter beginning after the date of acquisition to establish Revised Quarterly Baseline Volumes through the fourth Agreement Quarter of that Agreement Year (YOA).

d.	The Revised Quarterly Baseline Volume will become effective on the first Agreement Quarter that begins after the acquisition, and the Revised Annual Volume Threshold will be the sum of the four Quarterly Baseline Volumes, using any Revised Quarterly Baseline Volumes that had mail volume added due to the acquisition.

e.	The quarterly volumes from the acquired company that apply to the next Agreement Year (YFA) will be added to their respective quarters after the Annual Baseline Threshold Adjustment and the resulting Quarterly Baseline Volumes are calculated for that year.

f.	The Annual Volume Threshold adjustment calculation for the YFA and the resulting Quarterly Baseline adjustments will be calculated using the Revised Annual Volume Threshold of YOA described above; after the new Quarterly Baseline Volume calculation for YFA, the quarterly volume adjustments from the acquisition that were not added in the YOA will be added to the respective Quarterly Baseline Volumes in the YFA.

g.	The Annual Volume Threshold for the YFA is then the sum of the four Quarterly Baseline Volumes after adjustment for the acquisition.

h.	The Parties agree to promptly review and agree on all adjustments for the YOA Revised Quarterly Baseline Volumes and YOA Revised Annual Volume Thresholds within 30 days of any acquisition.

i.	New catalog brands or titles created by PHI, which will be mailed as PHI Eligible Mail will be added to this Negotiated Service Agreement volume for purposes of meeting the Annual Baseline Thresholds and the Quarterly Baseline Volumes and will be treated as incremental mail after notification to the Postal Service that a new catalog brand or title has been created.

j.	Since this new volume is incremental, the Annual Baseline Threshold and the Quarterly Baseline Volumes will not be adjusted for newly created catalogs or titles.

1601.5.6	Divestiture of Existing Catalog Title

a.	The Parties agree that the Quarterly Baseline Volumes and Annual Volume Thresholds will be adjusted downward to the extent that PHI divests itself of a catalog brand or title that was included in PHI Eligible Mail and Annual Volume Threshold calculations.

b.	The adjustment shall be based on mail volumes equal to the total PHI Eligible Mail volume lost from that catalog brand or title in each of the four most recent completed Agreement Quarters preceding the closing date of divestiture of the catalog brand or title.

c.	Such volume of the divested title will be subtracted from the respective and current Quarterly Baseline Volumes starting with the next Agreement Quarter beginning after the date of divestiture to establish new Quarterly Baseline Volumes through the fourth Agreement Quarter of that Agreement Year (YOD).

d.	The Revised Quarterly Baseline Volume will become effective on the first Agreement Quarter that begins after the divestiture, and the Revised Annual Volume Threshold will be the sum of the four Quarterly Baseline Volumes, using any Revised Quarterly Baseline Volumes that had quantities subtracted due to the divestiture.

e.	The quarterly volumes from the divested brand that apply to the next Agreement Year (YFD) will be subtracted from their respective quarters after the Annual Baseline Threshold Adjustment and the resulting Quarterly Baselines Volumes are calculated for that year.

f.	The Annual Volume Threshold adjustment calculation for YFD and the resulting Quarterly Baseline Adjustments will be calculated using the Revised Annual Threshold of the YOD described above; after the new Quarterly Baseline Volume calculation for YFD, the quarterly volume adjustments from the divestment that were not subtracted in the YOD will be subtracted from the respective Quarterly Baseline Volumes in the YFD.

g.	The Annual Baseline Threshold for the YFD is then the sum of the four Quarterly Baselines after adjustment for the divestment.

h.	The Parties agree to promptly review and agree on all adjustments for the YOD Revised Quarterly Baseline Volumes and YOD Revised Annual Thresholds within 30 days of any divestment.

1601.5.7	Assignment, Sale, Transfer, or Merger

Neither Party may, or shall have the power to, assign its rights or delegate its obligations under the Negotiated Service Agreement except in connection with a transfer of all or a majority of PHI assets or stock to new ownership, without the prior consent of the other; such written consent is not to be unreasonably withheld.  In addition, in the event that PHI is merged with or into another entity in connection with such sale or transfer, pricing under the Negotiated Service Agreement following such merger shall apply only to mail sent by the entity existing prior to the merger.  Following any such merger, the Parties may negotiate in good faith to extend, modify or enter into a new Agreement applicable to the merged entity.

1601.5.8	Termination

Throughout the term of the Negotiated Service Agreement, either Party may only terminate the Negotiated Service Agreement with 30 days written notice to the other Party as a consequence of (i) an act of God, (ii) fraud, (iii) indictment, (iv) insolvency, (v) inability of either Party to perform under the Negotiated Service Agreement, (vi) total PHI domestic package volume originating from a PHI warehouse, delivered to a residence by the Postal Service is less than 80 percent of PHI’s total outbound residential package volume, (vii) the determination by the Postal Service at the end of any Agreement Year, based on published Postal Service cost data, that the agreement failed to produce positive contribution to Postal Service fixed costs from on the total incremental Negotiated Service Agreement volume in that year, or (viii) if ordered to terminate the Negotiated Service Agreement by a court with valid jurisdiction, or the Postal Regulatory Commission.

1601.5.9	Expiration

The Negotiated Service Agreement shall expire 5 years from the Implementation Date, unless (i) terminated or cancelled by one of the Parties; (ii) renewed by mutual agreement in writing, and subsequent approval by the Governors and the Commission; (iii) superseded by a subsequent Agreement between the Parties; (iv) ordered by a court; or (v) otherwise required to comply with subsequently enacted legislation.

1601.5.10	Renewal Option

PHI has the option to renew the Negotiated Service Agreement for an additional period not to exceed 5 years provided it meets certain criteria.

a. To qualify for the exercise of the renewal option, PHI must have had an average annual volume of PHI Eligible Mail during Agreement Years Two, Three, and Four that exceeds the average Annual Thresholds for such years by at least 10 percent.

b. If PHI qualifies to exercise such option, it shall give written notice of the exercise not more than 3 months after the completion of Agreement Year Four.

c. Within 90 days after the exercise of the option, the parties shall complete a review of the discount structure specified in the Negotiated Service Agreement on the basis of the actual mix by sortation and drop entry level of PHI Eligible Mail, and the contribution received by the Postal Service therefrom, and shall in good faith negotiate such changes in the discount structure as may be appropriate to preserve the value of the Negotiated Service Agreement to both parties

d. Any such amended agreement shall be submitted for review and approval by the Board of Governors.  Upon approval by the Board of Governors, the Postal Service shall make the requisite filings at the Postal Regulatory Commission to secure renewal of the Agreement, including temporary extension of the original term, if necessary, to complete the renewal.

e. If the Agreement is renewed as herein provided, it shall remain in full force and effect for the term of years specified in the option. 

f. The Baseline Quarterly and Annual Thresholds for the First Year of the renewal period (Year Six of the Agreement) shall be calculated from the Annual and Quarterly Baselines in Year Five as specified in Section III of the Agreement, Eligible Mail Thresholds and Calculations.

2510.6		Global Plus Contracts

2510.6.1	Description

a.	Global Plus Contracts provide prices for any combination of the following:  International Priority Airmail (IPA), International Surface Air Lift (ISAL), Global Bulk Economy (GBE), Global Express Guaranteed (GXG), Priority Mail Express International (PMEI), Priority Mail International (PMI), Commercial ePacket (CeP), and International Business Reply Service (IBRS).  These contracts are for high-volume mailers or Postal Qualified Wholesalers and are the only contract vehicles for IPA, ISAL, GBE, and CeP mailings.

b.	The contracts include all destinations served by IPA, and/or ISAL, and/or GBE, and/or GXG, and/or PMEI, and/or PMI, and/or CeP, and/or IBRS, as specified by the Postal Service.  The preparation requirements are similar to the preparation requirements for all IPA shipments, and/or ISAL shipments, and/or GBE shipments, and/or GXG shipments, and/or PMEI shipments, and/or PMI shipments, and/or CeP shipments, and/or IBRS shipments but may vary for certain PMEI shipments, and/or PMEI shipments.  The mailer may use Postal Service-supplied labeling software, or a non-Postal Service supplied labeling software that has the same functionality as the Postal Service-supplied labeling software for PMEI and PMI shipments.  The software allows for preparation of address labels and customs declarations and submission of electronic shipment information to the Postal Service, as well as prepayment of customs duties and taxes and pre-advice for foreign customs authorities by the Postal Service.  The mailer may be required to prepare specific shipments according to country specific requirements.

c.	Certain Global Plus Contracts may also allow for the contract holder to act as a Reseller and provide discounted prices to a reseller for PMEI and PMI for destinations serviced by PMEI and PMI.  The contract holder as reseller offers prices based on its contract to its customers (reseller’s customers).  Preparation requirements are the same as for all PMEI and PMI shipments with the following exceptions:

· The reseller’s customer is required to use PC Postage from an authorized PC Postage vendor, or any other postage payment method authorized by the Postal Service under the contract holder’s Global Plus contract.

· The reseller’s customer may be required to prepare certain shipments according to country specific requirements.

· The reseller’s customer may be required to tender shipments through limited acceptance channels.

d.	To qualify for a Global Plus contract, a mailer must be capable, on an annualized basis, of either tendering at least 5,000 pieces of international mail to the Postal Service or paying at least $100,000.00 in international postage to the Postal Service.

e.	Individual negotiated agreements must comply with the requirements specified in 39 U.S.C. § 3633.
