ANEXO No 9 OF THE FINANCING AGREEMENT

PROCEDURE OF CALCULATION FOR AVAILABILITY

For the availability of the telecommunications services of the AWARDED PROJECT and in cases in which the interruption of the service is due to lack of electric power, the following may be taken into consideration:

Localities with conventional electric power:

In this case, THE CONTRACTOR must try to have an independent meter in order that the operation of the equipment does not depend on the action of third parties.

In such event, if there is a power cut, after the end of the autonomy of the electric backup system indicated in the TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS, the interruption will not be counted until the replacement of the conventional electric power.

To prove a power outage, it will be enough to present an alarm report of the management and monitoring system of the implemented network. In case the management and monitoring system does not allow to distinguish types of alarms, THE CONTRACTOR must present proofs of accreditation signed by the electric power concessionaire or some authority, personnel of the educational center, health or police, provided they are from the locality, indicating the time and date of beginning and end of the cut.

In the cases in which the power cuts are constant and in short time intervals, which do not allow the full load of the electric backup system, decreasing the autonomy time of the system, the time of the interruption will not be considered from the cut of service, as long as it is determined that the origin is due to power cut.

In those cases in which electric power is provided by a resident, municipality, or any third party other than the energy concessionaire, THE CONTRACTOR assumes the responsibility for the power cut for causes other than those indicated above.

Localities without conventional electric power:

THE CONTRACTOR according to the TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS will propose in its TECHNICAL PROPOSAL the design of the energy system that allows to guarantee the availability of the services according to what is required by the TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS.

In cases of a service cut within the autonomy time of the electrical system, the interruption will be counted within the period of availability of the services.

To prove a cut in the energy system implemented by THE CONTRACTOR, not attributable to the latter, proof of accreditation must be presented signed by the MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTION or some authority of the locality, personnel of the educational, health or police center indicating the time and date of beginning and end of the cut.

 

In some cases in which the power outages are constant and in short time intervals, which do not allow the complete charging of the electrical system, decreasing the autonomy time of the system, the time of the interruption will not be considered from the cut of service, as long as it is determined that the origin is due to an inadequate charge of the batteries.

 

In the cases in which the interruption of the service is due to weather factors, the following points will be taken into account:

If the power cut is due to the solar incidence in the transmission equipment, the interruption will not be counted as long as the occurrence of this event is accredited with the presentation of a report or document from a specialized public or private organization (previously approved by the FITEL), indicating the anomaly of the solar radiation and the effects that this produces.

If the cut is due to the absence of sunlight that does not allow the charging of the batteries through solar panels, the interruption will not be counted whenever a document from a specialized agency or the sworn statement of a local or district authority is presented, testifying of the absence of sunlight.

Schedule of availability of Services.

Within the hours in which the TECHNICAL PROPOSAL has not considered available the equipment, no interruption will be counted.

To determine the total interruption time, all service cuts greater than one third of the calculated availability for each day will be added.

Dentro del horario en los cuales la PROPUESTA TÉCNICA no la haya considerado disponible los equipos no se contabilizarán ninguna interrupción.

Para determinar el tiempo de interrupción total, se sumarán todos los cortes de servicio superiores a un tercio de la disponibilidad calculada para cada día.

 

 

ANEXO No 10 OF THE FINANCING AGREEMENT

FORMAT OF INVESTMENT COSTS OF THE ACCESS NETWORK AND TRANSPORT NETWORK

 

 

ANEXO No 11 OF THE FINANCING AGREEMENT

GUIDELINES FOR THE CHANGE OF MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTIONS, 

 BENEFICIARY LOCALITIES AND NODS OF THE ACCESS NETWORK

	
1.

	
The changes of the BENEFICIARY LOCALITIES, MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTION and POINTS OF PRESENDE (POP) including the corresponding NOD, may be made in the following cases during the INVESTMENT PERIOD:

 

		1.1.	
When there are divergences in the jurisdiction, name, location, geographical coordinates, or others referred to the BENEFICIARY LOCALITY, or MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED as appropriate.

 

		1.2.	
The BENEFICIARY LOCALITY lacks population and Public Institutions so that the sustainability of the service in said BENEFICIARY LOCALITY during the PERIOD OF OPERATION is affected.

 

		1.3.	
The MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTION has the Internet access service and the representative of the Public Institution that will assume the payment of the service, or to whom the corresponding faculties have been delegated, tell THE CONTRACTOR that it does not wish to contract the service.

 

		1.4.	
For some reason of a technical nature or due to the impediment of the population or local authorities, among others, the POP that will provide the service to the BENEFICIARY LOCALITY cannot be installed.

			

			In this case, if the change of BENEFICIARY LOCALITY is made, all the MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTIONS located in said locality would be modified. Additionally, it must be taken into account that any reference to change of POP location includes the change of location of the corresponding Node.

 

		1.5.	
The BENEFICIARY LOCALITY has MSAN, DSLAM, locker, URA or other type of point of presence with access other than satellite that allows the contracting of Internet access.

 

			
In this case, FITEL reserves the right to assess whether the service offered is similar or superior to the services that would be provided through the ACCESS NETWORK, in which case, the BENEFICIARY LOCALITY and the INSTITUTIONS will change. MANDATORY SUBSCRIBERS associated with it; being the FITEL who determines the BENEFICIARY LOCALITY and MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTIONS of replacement.

 

		
1.6.

	
For any reason that is framed in the regulations applicable to unforeseeable circumstances or force majeure, it is not possible to install a POP, it will proceed to change the BENEFICIARY LOCALITY and the MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTIONS associated with it.

 

		1.7.	
In all the preceding cases, THE CONTRACTOR must present the documentation that proves the proposed changes. FITEL will evaluate and determine if said changes proceed, communicating to THE CONTRACTOR the result of its evaluation.

			
 

 

	
2.

	
The MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTIONS of replacement may be proposed by THE CONTRACTOR and preferences shall be given according to the following considerations:

		2.1.	
The replacements of MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTIONS will be given preferably within the same BENEFICIARY LOCALITY.

 

	
 

 

	
2.2.

	
The educational institutions (understood for this purpose as school premises of public management) can only be replaced by another educational institution. In this case, THE CONTRACTOR may request to FITEL the replacement by another educational institution located in another BENEFICIARY LOCALITY. Exceptionally, FITEL may approve the replacement of an educational institution by a health establishment, police station or other Public Institution located in the same BENEFICIARY LOCALITY, when it is technically demonstrated that it is not feasible to serve another educational center located in another BENEFICIARY LOCALITY.

 

	
        2.2.

	
The educational institutions (understood for this purpose as school premises of public management) can only be replaced by another educational institution. In this case, THE CONTRACTOR may request to FITEL the replacement by another educational institution located in another BENEFICIARY LOCALITY. Exceptionally, FITEL may approve the replacement of an educational institution by a health establishment, police station or other Public Institution located in the same BENEFICIARY LOCALITY, when it is technically demonstrated that it is not feasible to serve another educational center located in another BENEFICIARY LOCALITY.

	
        2.3.

	
The MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTIONS different from the educational institutions may be replaced by police stations, health establishments, municipalities or other Public Institution, in the same or different locality.

 

	
        2.4.

	
In all the cases of the present numeral, FITEL will evaluate and determine if said changes proceed, communicating its decision to THE CONTRACTOR.

 

	3.	
As mentioned in numeral 2 above, in case it is necessary to replace a BENEFICIARY LOCALITY, THE CONTRACTOR or FITEL may suggest the new replacements, being FITEL who will approve to proceed or not to said change, taking into consideration what was established in the pre-investment study of the PROJECT. Similar procedure will be follow when it is required to change the location of a POP.

	4.	
The changes of MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTIONS throughout the OPERATION PERIOD must be performed free of charge up to a maximum of five percent (5%) of the total of MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTIONS, when the representative of the institution that will assume the payment of the services or to whom has been delegated the corresponding faculties, as long as this change is made within the coverage of the service, which will be at least one BENEFICIARY LOCALITY.

	5.	
Changes of BENEFICIARY LOCATIONS (and consequently of MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTIONS) during the entire OPERATION PERIOD must be performed free of charge up to a maximum of two percent (2%) of the total BENEFICIARY LOCATIONS when FITEL requires so.

ANEXO No 9 OF THE FINANCING AGREEMENT

PROCEDURE OF CALCULATION FOR AVAILABILITY

For the availability of the telecommunications services of the AWARDED PROJECT and in cases in which the interruption of the service is due to lack of electric power, the following may be taken into consideration:

Localities with conventional electric power:

In this case, THE CONTRACTOR must try to have an independent meter in order that the operation of the equipment does not depend on the action of third parties.

In such event, if there is a power cut, after the end of the autonomy of the electric backup system indicated in the TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS, the interruption will not be counted until the replacement of the conventional electric power.

To prove a power outage, it will be enough to present an alarm report of the management and monitoring system of the implemented network. In case the management and monitoring system does not allow to distinguish types of alarms, THE CONTRACTOR must present proofs of accreditation signed by the electric power concessionaire or some authority, personnel of the educational center, health or police, provided they are from the locality, indicating the time and date of beginning and end of the cut.

In the cases in which the power cuts are constant and in short time intervals, which do not allow the full load of the electric backup system, decreasing the autonomy time of the system, the time of the interruption will not be considered from the cut of service, as long as it is determined that the origin is due to power cut.

In those cases in which electric power is provided by a resident, municipality, or any third party other than the energy concessionaire, THE CONTRACTOR assumes the responsibility for the power cut for causes other than those indicated above.

Localities without conventional electric power:

THE CONTRACTOR according to the TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS will propose in its TECHNICAL PROPOSAL the design of the energy system that allows to guarantee the availability of the services according to what is required by the TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS.

In cases of a service cut within the autonomy time of the electrical system, the interruption will be counted within the period of availability of the services.

To prove a cut in the energy system implemented by THE CONTRACTOR, not attributable to the latter, proof of accreditation must be presented signed by the MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTION or some authority of the locality, personnel of the educational, health or police center indicating the time and date of beginning and end of the cut.

 

In some cases in which the power outages are constant and in short time intervals, which do not allow the complete charging of the electrical system, decreasing the autonomy time of the system, the time of the interruption will not be considered from the cut of service, as long as it is determined that the origin is due to an inadequate charge of the batteries.

 

In the cases in which the interruption of the service is due to weather factors, the following points will be taken into account:

If the power cut is due to the solar incidence in the transmission equipment, the interruption will not be counted as long as the occurrence of this event is accredited with the presentation of a report or document from a specialized public or private organization (previously approved by the FITEL), indicating the anomaly of the solar radiation and the effects that this produces.

If the cut is due to the absence of sunlight that does not allow the charging of the batteries through solar panels, the interruption will not be counted whenever a document from a specialized agency or the sworn statement of a local or district authority is presented, testifying of the absence of sunlight.

Schedule of availability of Services.

Within the hours in which the TECHNICAL PROPOSAL has not considered available the equipment, no interruption will be counted.

To determine the total interruption time, all service cuts greater than one third of the calculated availability for each day will be added.

Dentro del horario en los cuales la PROPUESTA TÉCNICA no la haya considerado disponible los equipos no se contabilizarán ninguna interrupción.

Para determinar el tiempo de interrupción total, se sumarán todos los cortes de servicio superiores a un tercio de la disponibilidad calculada para cada día.

 

 

ANEXO No 10 OF THE FINANCING AGREEMENT

FORMAT OF INVESTMENT COSTS OF THE ACCESS NETWORK AND TRANSPORT NETWORK

 

 

ANEXO No 11 OF THE FINANCING AGREEMENT

GUIDELINES FOR THE CHANGE OF MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTIONS, 

 BENEFICIARY LOCALITIES AND NODS OF THE ACCESS NETWORK

	
1.

	
The changes of the BENEFICIARY LOCALITIES, MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTION and POINTS OF PRESENDE (POP) including the corresponding NOD, may be made in the following cases during the INVESTMENT PERIOD:

 

		1.1.	
When there are divergences in the jurisdiction, name, location, geographical coordinates, or others referred to the BENEFICIARY LOCALITY, or MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED as appropriate.

 

		1.2.	
The BENEFICIARY LOCALITY lacks population and Public Institutions so that the sustainability of the service in said BENEFICIARY LOCALITY during the PERIOD OF OPERATION is affected.

 

		1.3.	
The MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTION has the Internet access service and the representative of the Public Institution that will assume the payment of the service, or to whom the corresponding faculties have been delegated, tell THE CONTRACTOR that it does not wish to contract the service.

 

		1.4.	
For some reason of a technical nature or due to the impediment of the population or local authorities, among others, the POP that will provide the service to the BENEFICIARY LOCALITY cannot be installed.

			

			In this case, if the change of BENEFICIARY LOCALITY is made, all the MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTIONS located in said locality would be modified. Additionally, it must be taken into account that any reference to change of POP location includes the change of location of the corresponding Node.

 

		1.5.	
The BENEFICIARY LOCALITY has MSAN, DSLAM, locker, URA or other type of point of presence with access other than satellite that allows the contracting of Internet access.

 

			
In this case, FITEL reserves the right to assess whether the service offered is similar or superior to the services that would be provided through the ACCESS NETWORK, in which case, the BENEFICIARY LOCALITY and the INSTITUTIONS will change. MANDATORY SUBSCRIBERS associated with it; being the FITEL who determines the BENEFICIARY LOCALITY and MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTIONS of replacement.

 

		
1.6.

	
For any reason that is framed in the regulations applicable to unforeseeable circumstances or force majeure, it is not possible to install a POP, it will proceed to change the BENEFICIARY LOCALITY and the MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTIONS associated with it.

 

		1.7.	
In all the preceding cases, THE CONTRACTOR must present the documentation that proves the proposed changes. FITEL will evaluate and determine if said changes proceed, communicating to THE CONTRACTOR the result of its evaluation.

			
 

 

	
2.

	
The MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTIONS of replacement may be proposed by THE CONTRACTOR and preferences shall be given according to the following considerations:

		2.1.	
The replacements of MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTIONS will be given preferably within the same BENEFICIARY LOCALITY.

 

	
 

 

	
2.2.

	
The educational institutions (understood for this purpose as school premises of public management) can only be replaced by another educational institution. In this case, THE CONTRACTOR may request to FITEL the replacement by another educational institution located in another BENEFICIARY LOCALITY. Exceptionally, FITEL may approve the replacement of an educational institution by a health establishment, police station or other Public Institution located in the same BENEFICIARY LOCALITY, when it is technically demonstrated that it is not feasible to serve another educational center located in another BENEFICIARY LOCALITY.

 

	
     2.2.

	
The educational institutions (understood for this purpose as school premises of public management) can only be replaced by another educational institution. In this case, THE CONTRACTOR may request to FITEL the replacement by another educational institution located in another BENEFICIARY LOCALITY. Exceptionally, FITEL may approve the replacement of an educational institution by a health establishment, police station or other Public Institution located in the same BENEFICIARY LOCALITY, when it is technically demonstrated that it is not feasible to serve another educational center located in another BENEFICIARY LOCALITY.

	
    2.3.

	
The MANDATORY SUBSCRIBED INSTITUTIONS different from the educational institutions may be replaced by police stations, health establishments, municipalities or other Public Institution, in the same or different locality.

 

	
    2.4.

	
In all the cases of the present numeral, FITEL will evaluate and determine if said changes proceed, communicating its decision to THE CONTRACTOR.

 

	3.	
As mentioned in numeral 2 above, in case it is necessary to replace a BENEFICIARY LOCALITY, THE CONTRACTOR or FITEL may suggest the new replacements, being FITEL who will approve to proceed or not to said change, taking into consideration what was established in the pre-investment study of the PROJECT. Similar procedure will be follow when it is required to change the location of a POP.

	4.
