the fee set forth in Schedule F of the Agreement. 

  

	 	    (b)	ACP MIPS. CSG shall provide incremental MIPS to support Customer’s use of CSG’s ACP (“ACP MIPS”) for ACP production (PTDA) and
Integrated Operations Testing (“IOT”) **************** environments made available for Customer. For production environment (****) made available for Customer, beginning on the first day (also known as the “go-live day”)
of migration to ACP, for the ACP MIPS fee set forth in Schedule F (as amended herein), CSG agrees to provide ACP MIPS in the amount of *****; provided, however, should Customer’s forecasted usage ****** **** **** prior to migration to ACP be
less than *,***, CSG shall use the ***** forecasted amount as of that date as the amount ACP MIPS to be provided on the first day of migration to ACP. CSG shall make the ACP MIPS available on the first day of migration to ACP and Customer shall be
invoiced for such on Customer’s monthly invoice. As of the Effective Date, for Customer’s IOT **************** environments, Customer and CSG agree for the ACP MIPS fee set forth in Schedule F (as amended herein), the parties shall

both ACP production ****** and IOT **************** environments made available for Customer and shall be invoiced for such on Customer’s monthly invoice in accordance with the ACP MIPS utilized during such month. Customer and CSG agree that
the ACP MIPS usage as of the **** *** of the ****** **** **** after migration to ACP (“ACP MIPS Period”) for both Customer’s ACP production ****** and IOT **************** environments, shall be the level for which ACP MIPS are
prospectively provided and paid for by Customer at the ACP MIPS fee set forth in Schedule F (as amended herein), beginning with Customer’s invoice after ****** **** **** of migration. After the ACP MIPS Period, the provision and purchase of any
additional MIPS shall be in accordance with Section 9 (a) of this Exhibit A-1. CSG will include the amount of ACP MIPS in Customer’s monthly MIPS notification.
