telecommunications company ("CLEC") authorized to provide telecommunications
services in the state of Florida; and

        WHEREAS, the Parties wish to interconnect their facilities, purchase
unbundled elements, and exchange traffic specifically for the purposes of
fulfilling their obligations pursuant to sections 251 and 252 of the
Telecommunications Act of 1996 ("the Act").

        NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained
herein, BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom agree as follows:

        Agreement ("Subsequent Agreement").

1.3     If, within one hundred and thirty-five (135) days of commencing the

        Attachment 6 of this Agreement, as appropriate. 2.2 BellSouth has
        developed electronic systems for placing most resale and some UNE
        orders. BellSouth has also developed electronic systems for accessing
        data needed to place orders including valid address, available services

        ITC/\DeltaCom for resale will be at least equal in quality to that
        provided to BellSouth, or any BellSouth subsidiary, affiliate or end
        user. In connection with resale, BellSouth will provide ITC/\DeltaCom
        with pre-ordering, ordering, maintenance and trouble reporting, and
        daily usage data functionality that will enable ITC/\DeltaCom to provide
        equivalent levels of customer service to their local exchange customers
        as BellSouth provides to its own end users.

        elements, and access to those elements. The quality of an unbundled
        network element, as well as the quality of the access to such unbundled
        network element, that BellSouth provides to ITC/\DeltaCom shall be at
        least equal in quality to that which BellSouth provides to itself or to
        any BellSouth subsidiary, affiliate or other CLEC. The terms and
        conditions pursuant to which BellSouth provides access to unbundled
        network elements, including but not limited to the time within which
        BellSouth provisions such access to unbundled network elements, shall,
        at a minimum, be no less favorable to ITC/\DeltaCom than the terms and
        conditions under which BellSouth provisions such elements to itself.
        Consistent with all applicable rules and regulations, BellSouth shall
        provide lTC/\DeltaCom with pre-ordering, ordering, provisioning,
        maintenance and repair, and billing functionality at least equal to that

        of ITC/\DeltaCom SLI, or for the subsequent release to third parties of
        such SLI. In addition, to the extent BellSouth incurs costs to modify
        its systems to enable the release of ITC/\DeltaCom's SLI, or costs on an
        ongoing basis to administer the release of ITC/\DeltaCom's SLI,
        ITC/\DeltaCom shall pay to BellSouth its proportionate share of the
        reasonable costs associated therewith.

        access to its unbundled elements at any technically feasible point for
        the provision of ITC/\DeltaCom's telecommunications service where such

        also shall include a ITC/\DeltaCom's designation of the request as being
        (i) pursuant to the Telecommunications Act of 1996 or (ii) pursuant to

        maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, such Party shall not be
        liable to Customer or third Party for (i) any Loss relating to or
        arising out of this Agreement, whether in contract, tort or otherwise,
        that exceeds the amount such party would have charged that applicable
        person for the service, product or function that gave rise to such Loss
        and (ii) Consequential Damages. To the extent that a Party elects not to
        place in its tariffs or contracts such limitations of liability, and the
        other Party incurs a Loss as a result thereof, such Party shall
        Indemnify and reimburse the other Party for that portion of the Loss
        that would have been limited had the first Party included in its tariffs

         end users.

                                                                          PAGE 8

7.1      ITC/\DeltaCom agrees that BellSouth will respond to subpoenas and court
         ordered requests delivered directly to BellSouth for the purpose of

         providing the call detail information. BellSouth will provide the call

8.2      Ownership of Intellectual Property. Any intellectual property which
         originates from or is developed by a Party shall remain in the
         exclusive ownership of that Party. Except for a limited license to use
         patents or copyrights to the extent necessary for the Parties to use
         any facilities or equipment (including software) or to receive any
         service solely as provided under this Agreement, no license in patent,
         copyright, trademark or trade secret, or other proprietary or
         intellectual property right now or hereafter owned, controlled or
         licensable by a Party, is granted to the other Party or shall be
         implied or arise by estoppel. It is the responsibility of each Party to
         ensure at no additional cost to the other Party that it has obtained
         any necessary licenses in relation to intellectual property of third
         Parties used in its network that may be required to enable the other
         Party to use

                                           GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS - PART A
                                                                          PAGE 9

         any facilities or equipment (including software), to receive any
         service, or to perform Its respective obligations under this Agreement.

8.3      Indemnification. The Party providing a service pursuant to this
         Agreement will defend the Party receiving such service or data provided
         as a result of such service against claims of infringement arising
         solely from the use by the receiving Party of such service and will
         indemnify the receiving Party for any damages awarded based solely on
         such claims in accordance with Section 6 of this Agreement.

         Promptly after receipt of notice of any claim or the commencement of
         any action for which a Party may seek indemnification pursuant to this
         Section, such Party (the "Indemnified Party") shall promptly give
         written notice to the other Party (the "Indemnifying Party) of such
         claim or action, but the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party
         shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability it may have
         to the Indemnified Party except to the extent the Indemnifying Party
         has actually been prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party shall be
         obligated to assume the defense of such claim, at its own expense. The
         Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party's
         reasonable requests for assistance or Information relating to such
         claim, at the Indemnifying Party's expense. The Indemnified Party shall
         have the right to participate in the investigation and defense of such
         claim or action, with separate counsel chosen and paid for by the
         Indemnified Party.

8.4      Claim of Infringement. In the event that use of any facilities or
         equipment (including software), becomes, or in reasonable judgment of
         the Party who owns the affected network is likely to become, the
         subject of a claim, action, suit, or proceeding based on intellectual
         property infringement, then said Party shall promptly and at its sole
         expense, but subject to the limitations of liability set forth below:

               8.4.1 modify or replace the applicable facilities or equipment
               (including software) while maintaining form and function, or

               8.4.2 obtain a license sufficient to allow such use to continue.

               8.4.3 In the event 8.4.1 or 8.4.2 are commercially unreasonable,
               then said Party may, terminate, upon reasonable notice under the
               circumstances, this contract with respect to use of, or services
               provided through use of, the affected facilities or equipment
               (including software), but solely to the extent required to avoid
               the infringement claim.

8.5      Exception to Obligations. Neither Party's obligations under this
         Section shall apply to the extent the infringement is caused by: (i)
         modification of the facilities or equipment (including software) by the
         indemnitee; (ii) use by the indemnitee of the facilities or equipment
         (including software) in combination with equipment or facilities
         (including software) not provided or authorized by the indemnitor
         provided the facilities or equipment (including software) would not be
         infringing if

         used alone; (iii) conformance to specifications of the indemnitee which
         would necessarily result in infringement; or (iv) continued use by the
         indemnitee of the affected facilities or equipment (including software)
         after being placed on notice to discontinue use as set forth herein.

8.6      Exclusive Remedy. The foregoing shall constitute the Parties' sole and
         exclusive remedies and obligations with respect to a third party claim
         of intellectual property infringement arising out of the conduct of
         business under this agreement.

9.       TREATMENT OF PROPRIETARY AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

9.1      Confidential Information. It may be necessary for BellSouth and
         ITC/\DeltaCom to provide each other with certain confidential
         information, including trade secret information, including but not
         limited to, technical and business plans, technical information,
         proposals, specifications, drawings, procedures, customer account data,
         call detail records and like information (hereinafter collectively
         referred to as "Information"). All Information shall be in writing or
         other tangible form and clearly marked with a confidential, private or
         proprietary legend and that the Information will be returned to the
         owner within a reasonable time. The Information shall not be copied or
         reproduced in any form. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall receive such
         Information and not disclose such Information. BellSouth and
         ITC/\DeltaCom shall protect the Information received from distribution,
         disclosure or dissemination to anyone except employees of BellSouth and
         ITC/\DeltaCom with a need to know such Information and which employees
         agree to be bound by the terms of this Section. BellSouth and
         ITC/\DeltaCom will use the same standard of care to protect Information
         received as they would use to protect their own confidential and
         proprietary Information.  Where customer specific information or
         critical network information is communicated orally to designated
         company representatives in furtherance of this Agreement, both Parties
         agree that those employees shall protect such Information from
         disclosure to anyone except employees of BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom
         with a need to know such Information.

9.2      Exception to Obligation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there will be
         no obligation on BellSouth or ITC/\DeltaCom to protect any portion of
         the Information that is: (1) made publicly available by the owner of
         the Information or lawfully disclosed by a Party other than BellSouth
         or ITC/\DeltaCom; (2) lawfully obtained from any source other than the
         owner of the Information; or (3) previously known to the receiving
         Party without an obligation to keep it confidential.

         Party may petition the Commission for a resolution of the dispute;
         provided, however, that to the extent any issue disputed hereunder
         involves issues beyond the scope of authority or jurisdiction of the
         Commission, the parties may seek initial resolution of such dispute in
         another appropriate forum. However, each Party reserves any rights it
         may have to seek judicial review of any ruling made by the Commission
         concerning this Agreement. Each Party shall bear its own costs when
         seeking Commission or judicial review of any ruling concerning this
         Agreement.

12.     LIMITATION OF USE

         The Parties agree that this Agreement shall not be offered by either

         for any other purpose.

         from the performance of this Agreement shall be borne by the Party upon
         which the obligation for payment is imposed under applicable law, even
         if the obligation to collect and remit such taxes is placed upon the
         other party. Any such taxes shall be shown as separate items on
         applicable billing documents between the Parties. The Party obligated
         to collect and remit taxes shall do so unless the other Party provides
         such Party with the required evidence of exemption. The Party to
         obligated to pay any such taxes may contest the same and shall be
         entitled to the benefit of any refund or recovery. The Party obligated
         to collect and remit taxes shall cooperate fully in any such contest by
         the other Party by providing,

         In the event performance of this Agreement, or any obligation

         reasonable control and without the fault or negligence of the Party
         affected, the Party affected, upon giving prompt notice to the other
         Party, shall be excused from such performance on a day-to-day basis to
         the extent of such prevention, restriction, or interference (and the
         other Party shall likewise be excused from performance of its
         obligations on a day-to-day basis until the delay, restriction or
         interference has ceased); provided however, that the Party so affected
         shall use best efforts to avoid or remove such causes of
         non-performance and both Parties shall proceed whenever such causes are
         removed or cease.

15.     YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

16.3     Execution of this Agreement by either Party does not confirm or infer
         that the executing Party agrees with any decision(s) issued pursuant to
         the Telecommunications Act of 1996 and the consequences of those
         decisions on specific language in this Agreement. Neither Party waives
         its rights to appeal or otherwise challenge any such decision(s) and
         each Party reserves all of its rights to pursue any and all legal
         and/or equitable remedies, including appeals of any such decision(s).

16.4     In the event that any effective legislative, regulatory, judicial or
         other legal action materially affects any material terms of this

         material terms of this Agreement, ITC/\DeltaCom or BellSouth may, on
         thirty (30) days' written notice require that such terms be

         invalid, shall not be effective thereby, provided that the Parties

         identity due to a merger, acquisition, transfer or any other reason, it

         hereof, to exercise any option which is herein provided, or to require

         result of BellSouth's intentional misconduct. ITC/\DeltaCom may not
         utilize any notice given under this subsection concerning a service to
         market resold offerings of that service in advance of BellSouth.

21.      DISCONTINUANCE OF SERVICE

         Each Party reserves the right to suspend or terminate service in the
         event of prohibited, unlawful or improper use of facilities or service
         pursuant to regulatory or legal authorities, for which it is purchasing
         services or in the event of nonpayment for services in accordance with
         Attachment 7 of this Agreement.

22.      TRUE-UP

         This section applies only to Tennessee.

         The interim prices for Unbundled Network Elements, Local
         Interconnection and Ancillary Services referenced above shall be
         subject to true-up according to the following procedures:

            1. The interim prices shall be trued-up, either up or down, based on
            final prices determined either by further agreement between the
            Parties, or by a final order (including any appeals) of the
            Commission which final order meets the criteria of (3) below. The
            Parties shall implement the true-up by comparing the actual volumes
            and demand for each item, together with interim prices for each
            item, with the final prices determined for each item. Each Party
            shall keep its own records upon which the true-up can be based, and
            any final payment from one Party to the other shall be in an amount
            agreed upon by the Parties based on such records. In the event of
            any disagreement as between the records or the Parties regarding the
            amount of such true-up, the Parties agree that the body having
            jurisdiction over the matter shall be called upon to resolve such
            differences, or the Parties may mutually agree to submit the matter
            to the Dispute Resolution process in accordance with the provisions
            of Section 11 of the General Terms and Conditions.
            2. The Parties may continue to negotiate toward final prices, but in
            the event that no such agreement is reached within nine (9) months,
            either

            Party may petition the Commission to resolve such disputes and to
            determine final prices for each item. Alternatively, upon mutual

            Resolution Process set forth in Section 11 of the General Terms and
            Conditions, so long as they file the resulting agreement with the
            Commission as a "negotiated agreement" under Section 252(e) of the
            Act.

            3. A final order of this Commission that forms the basis of a
            true-up shall be the final order as to prices based on appropriate
            cost studies, or potentially may be a final order in any other
            Commission proceeding which meets the following criteria:

                     (a)     BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom is entitled to be a
                             full party to the proceeding;

                             Telecommunications Act of 1996, including but not
                             limited to Section 252(d)(1) (which contains
                             pricing standards) and all then-effective
                             implementing rules and regulations; and,

                     (c)     It shall include as an issue the geographic
                             deaveraging of unbundled element prices, which
                             deaveraged prices, if any are required by said
                             final order, shall form the basis of any true-up.

23.      RULE OF CONSTRUCTION

         No rule of construction requiring interpretation against the drafting
         Party hereof shall apply in the interpretation of this Agreement.

24.      HEADINGS OF NO FORCE OR EFFECT

                  "Percent Of Interstate Usage" of "PIU" is defined as a factor
                  to be applied to terminating access services minutes of use to
                  obtain those minutes that should be rated as interstate access
                  services minutes of use. The numerator includes all interstate
                  "non-intermediary" minutes of use, including interstate
                  minutes of use that are forwarded due to service provider
                  number portability less any interstate minutes of use for
                  Terminating Party Pays services, such as 800 Services. The
                  denominator includes all "non-intermediary", local,
                  interstate, intrastate, toll and access minutes of use
                  adjusted for service provider number portability less all
                  minutes attributable to terminating Party pays services

                  "Percent Local Usage" or "PLU"is defined as a factor to be
                  applied to intrastate terminating minutes of use. The
                  numerator shall include all "non-intermediary" local minutes
                  of use adjusted for those minutes of use that only apply local
                  due to Service Provider Number Portability. The denominator is
                  the total intrastate minutes of use including local,
                  intrastate toll, and access, adjusted for Service Provider
                  Number Portability less intrastate terminating Party pays
                  minutes of use.

                  "Rate Center" identifies the specific geographic point within
                  an Exhange area which is associated with one or more
                  particular NPA-NXX codes which have been assigned to a LEC (or
                  CLEC) for the provision of Telephone Exchange Services. The
                  Rate Center vertical and horizontal coordinates are used in
                  the toll message rating process to measure distances between
                  Rate Centers.

                  "Revenue Accounting Office ("RAO") Status Company" is a local
                  exchange company/alternate local exchange company that has
                  been assigned a unique RAO code. Message data exchanged among
                  RAO status companies is grouped (i.e. packed) according to
                  From/To/Bill RAO combinations.

                  "Transit Traffic Service" is as described in Attachment 3 of
                  this Agreement.

                                                                          Page 6

7.9      BellSouth reserves the right to contact ITC/\DeltaCom's customers, if
         deemed necessary, for maintenance purposes.

7.10     Facilities and/or equipment utilized by BellSouth to provide service to
         ITC/\DeltaCom remain the property of BellSouth.

8.0      ESTABLISHMENT OF SERVICE

8.1      If ITC/\DeltaCom has not already done so, after receiving certification
         as a local exchange company from the appropriate regulatory agency,
         ITC/\DeltaCom will provide the appropriate Company service center the
         necessary documentation to enable BellSouth to establish a master
         account for ITC/\DeltaCom. Such documentation shall include the
         Application for Master Account, proof of authority to provide
         telecommunications services, an Operating Company Number ("OCN")
         assigned by the National Exchange Carriers Association ("NECA") and a
         tax exemption certificate, if applicable. BellSouth.

8.2      Service orders will be in a standard format designated by BellSouth.

8.3      BellSouth will not require end user confirmation prior to establishing
         service for ITC/\DeltaCom's end user customer. ITC/\DeltaCom must,
         however, be able to demonstrate end user authorization upon request.

8.4      ITC/\DeltaCom will be the single point of contact with BellSouth for
         all subsequent ordering activity resulting in additions or changes to
         resold services except that BellSouth will accept a request directly
         from the end user for conversion of the end user's service from
         ITC/\DeltaCom to BellSouth or will accept a request from another CLEC
         for conversion of the end user's service from ITC/\DeltaCom to the
         other LEC. BellSouth will promptly notify ITC/\DeltaCom that such a
         request has been processed.

8.5      If BellSouth determines that an unauthorized change in local service to
         ITC/\DeltaCom has occurred, BellSouth will reestablish service with the
         appropriate local service provider. If BellSouth determines that
         ITC/\DeltaCom has initiated the unauthorized change, the unauthorized
         change charge described in F.C.C. Tariff No. 1, Section 13 will be
         assessed. Appropriate nonrecurring charges, as set forth in Section A4.
         of the General Subscriber Service Tariff, will also be assessed to
         ITC/\DeltaCom. These charges shall be credited if ITC/\DeltaCom
         provides proof of authorization or if it is determined that BellSouth
         or another LEC other than ITC/\DeltaCom is the source of the error.

8.6      BellSouth shall take orders for resale from ITC/\DeltaCom provided the
         deposit requirements of Section 1.11 of Attachment 7 to this Agreement
         are met.

8.7      The Parties will adopt and adhere to the BellSouth guidelines
         associated with each method of providing customer record information.

9.0      STANDARDS OF PERFORMANCE

9.1      BellSouth shall provide Resale Services to ITC/\DeltaCom (i) in
         accordance with Attachment 10 hereto and (ii) as required by the FCC or
         the applicable State Commission.

10.      RESALE OF CUSTOMER SPECIFIC ARRANGEMENTS

10.1     BellSouth shall make available CSAs for resale as provided in Exhibits
         A and B to this Attachment. In cases where ITC/\DeltaCom resells an
         existing CSA, BellSouth will not impose any termination charges on the
         end user or on ITC/\DeltaCom provided that ITC/\DeltaCom agrees to
         execute a mutually acceptable assumption letter and thereafter abides
         by the terms of the CSA.

11.      PAYMENT AND BILLING ARRANGEMENTS
<PAGE>

                                                                    Attachment 1
                                                                          Page 7

11.1     If ITC/\DeltaCom has not already done so, prior to submitting orders to
         BellSouth for local service, a master account must be established for
         ITC/\DeltaCom. ITC/\DeltaCom is required to provide the following
         before a master account is established: proof of PSC/PUC certification,
         the Application for Master Account, an Operating Company Number ("OCN")
         assigned by the National Exchange Carriers Association ("NECA") and a
         tax exemption certificate, if applicable.

11.2     BellSouth shall bill ITC/\DeltaCom on a current basis all applicable
         charges and credits.

11.3     Payment of all charges will be the responsibility of ITC/\DeltaCom.
         ITC/\ DeltaCom shall make payment to BellSouth for all services billed.
         Bell South is not responsible for payments not received by
         ITC/\DeltaCom from ITC/\DeltaCom's customers. BellSouth will not become
         involved in billing disputes that may arise between ITC/\DeltaCom and
         its customer. Payments made to BellSouth as payment on account will be
         credited to an accounts receivable master account and not to an end
         user's account.

11.4     BellSouth will render bills each month on established bill days for
         each ITC/\DeltaCom's accounts.

11.5     BellSouth will bill ITC/\DeltaCom, in advance, charges for all services
         to be provided during the ensuing billing period except charges
         associated with service usage, which charges will be billed in arrears.
         Charges will be calculated on an individual end user account level,
         including, if applicable, any charges for usage or usage allowances.
         BellSouth will also bill all charges, including but not limited to 911
         and E911 charges, and telecommunications relay charges and other taxes
         and fees in accordance with applicable laws, orders and regulations.

11.6     The payment will be due by the next bill date (i.e., same date in the
         following month as the bill date) and is payable to immediately
         available funds. Payment is considered to have been made when received
         by BellSouth.

11.7     If the payment due date falls on a Sunday or on a Holiday which is
         observed on a Monday, the payment due date shall be the first
         non-Holiday day following such Sunday or Holiday. If the payment due
         date falls on a Saturday or on a Holiday which is observed on Tuesday,
         Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday, the payment due date shall be the last
         non-Holiday day preceding such Saturday or Holiday. If payment is not
         received by the payment due date, a late payment charge, as set forth
         in BellSouth's tariffs, shall apply.

11.8     If ITC/\DeltaCom requests multiple billing media or additional copies
         of bills, BellSouth will provide these at an appropriate charge to
         ITC/\DeltaCom.

12.      BILLING DISPUTES

12.1     Each Party agrees to notify the other Party upon the discovery of a
         billing dispute. In the event of a billing dispute, the Parties will
         endeavor to resolve the dispute within sixty (60) calendar days of the
         Bill Date on which such disputed charges appear. Resolution of the
         dispute is expected to occur at the first level of management resulting
         in a recommendation for settlement of the dispute and closure of a
         specific billing period. If the issues are not resolved within the
         allotted time frame, the following resolution procedure will begin:

         12.1.1   If the dispute is not resolved within sixty (60) days of the
         Bill Date, the dispute will be escalated to the second level of
         management for each of the respective Parties for resolution. If the
         dispute is not resolved within ninety (90) days of the Bill Date, the
         dispute will be escalated to the third level of management for each of
         the respective Parties for resolution.

         12.1.2   If the dispute is not resolved within one hundred and twenty
         (120) days of the Bill Date, the dispute will be escalated to the
         fourth level of management for each of the respective Parties for
         resolution.

         12.1.3   If a Party disputes a charge and does not pay such charge by
         the payment due date, such charges shall be subject to late payment
         charges as set forth in the Late Payment Charges provision of this
<PAGE>

                                                                    Attachment 1
                                                                          Page 8

         Attachment. If a Party disputes charges and the dispute is resolved in
         favor of such Party, the other Party shall credit the bill of the
         disputing Party for the amount of the disputed charges along with any
         late payment charges assessed no later than the second Bill Date after
         the resolution of the dispute. Accordingly, if a Party disputes charges
         and the dispute is resolved in favor of the other Party, the disputing
         Party shall pay the other Party the amount of the disputed charges and
         any associated late payment charges assessed no later than the second
         bill payment due date after the resolution of the dispute. In no event,
         however, shall any late payment charges be assessed on any previously
         assessed late payment charges.

12.2     Upon proof of tax-exempt certification from ITC/\DeltaCom, the total
         amount billed to ITC/\DeltaCom will not include any taxes due from the
         end user. ITC/\DeltaCom will be solely responsible for the computation,
         tracking, reporting and payment of all federal, state and/or local
         jurisdiction taxes associated with the services resold to the end user.

12.3     As the customer of record, ITC/\DeltaCom will be responsible for, and
         remit to the BellSouth, all charges applicable to its resold services
         for emergency services (E911 and 911) and Telecommunications Relay
         Service (TRS) as well as any other charges of a similar nature.

12.4     If any portion of the payment is received by BellSouth after the
         payment due date as set forth preceding, or if any portion of the
         payment is received by BellSouth in funds that are not immediately
         available to BellSouth, then a late payment penalty shall be due to
         BellSouth. The late payment penalty shall be the portion of the payment
         not received by the payment due date times a late factor. The late
         factor shall be as set forth in Section A2 of the General Subscriber
         Service Tariff and Section B2 of the Private Line Service Tariff.

12.5     Any switched access charges associated with interexchange carrier
         access to the resold local exchange lines will be billed by, and due
         to, BellSouth. No additional charges are to be assessed to
         ITC/\DeltaCom.

12.6     BellSouth will not perform billing and collection services for
         ITC/\DeltaCom as a result of the execution of this Agreement. All
         requests for billing services should be referred to the appropriate
         entity or operational group within BellSouth.

12.7     Pursuant to 47 CFR Section 51.617, BellSouth will bill ITC/\DeltaCom
         end user common line charges identical to the end user common line
         charges BellSouth bills its end users.

12.8     In general, BellSouth will not become involved in disputes between
         ITC/\DeltaCom and ITC/\DeltaCom's end user customers over resold
         services. If a dispute does arise that cannot be settled without the
         involvement of BellSouth, ITC/\DeltaCom shall contact the designated
         Service Center for resolution. BellSouth will make every effort to
         assist in the resolution of the dispute and will work with
         ITC/\DeltaCom to resolve the matter in as timely a manner as possible.
         ITC/\DeltaCom may be required to submit documentation to substantiate
         the claim.

13.      DISCONTINUANCE OF SERVICE

13.1     The procedures for discontinuing service to an end user are as follows:

         13.1.1.  Where possible, BellSouth will deny service to ITC/\DeltaCom's
                  end user on behalf of, and at the request of, ITC/\DeltaCom.
                  Upon restoration of the end user's service, restoral charges
                  will apply and will be the responsibility of ITC/\DeltaCom. If
                  within fifteen days after an end user's service has been
                  denied no contact has been made in reference to restoring
                  service, the end user's service will be disconnected.

         13.1.2.  At the request of ITC/\DeltaCom, BellSouth will disconnect a
                  ITC/\DeltaCom end user customer.

         13.1.3.  All requests by ITC/\DeltaCom for denial or disconnection of
                  an end user for nonpayment must be in writing or via the
                  electronic interface established pursuant to Attachment 6 to
                  the Agreement.
<PAGE>

                                                                    Attachment 1
                                                                          Page 9

         13.1.4   ITC/\DeltaCom will be made solely responsible for notifying
                  the end user of the proposed disconnection of the service.

         13.1.5   BellSouth will continue to process calls made to the Annoyance
                  Call Center and will advise ITC/\DeltaCom when it is
                  determined that annoyance calls are originated from one of
                  their end user's locations. BellSouth shall be indemnified,
                  defended and held harmless by ITC/\DeltaCom and/or the end
                  user against any claim, loss or damage arising from providing
                  this information to ITC/\DeltaCom. It is the responsibility of
                  ITC/\DeltaCom to take the corrective action necessary with its
                  customers who make annoying calls. Failure to do so will
                  result in BellSouth's disconnecting the end user's service.

13.2     The procedures for discontinuing service to ITC/\DeltaCom are as
         follows:

         13.2.1   BellSouth reserves the right to suspend or terminate service
                  for nonpayment or in the event of prohibited, unlawful or
                  improper use of the facilities or service, abuse of the
                  facilities, or any other violation or noncompliance by
                  ITC/\DeltaCom of the rules and regulations of BellSouth's
                  Tariffs.

         13.2.2   If payment of account is not received by the bill day in the
                  month after the original bill day, BellSouth may provide
                  written notice to ITC/\DeltaCom, that additional applications
                  for service will be refused and that any pending orders for
                  service will not be completed if payment is not received by
                  the fifteenth day following the date of the notice. In
                  addition BellSouth may, at the same time, give thirty days
                  notice to the person designated by ITC/\DeltaCom to receive
                  notices of noncompliance, and discontinue the provision of
                  existing services to ITC/\DeltaCom at any time thereafter
                  subject to state and federal regulatory requirements.

         13.3.3   In the case of such discontinuance, all billed charges, as
                  well as applicable termination charges, shall become due.

         13.3.4   If BellSouth does not refuse additional applications for
                  service or discontinue the provision of services on the date
                  specified in the thirty day notice and ITC/\DeltaCom's
                  noncompliance continues, nothing contained herein shall
                  preclude BellSouth's right to refuse additional applications
                  for service and discontinue the provision of existing service
                  without further notice.

         13.3.5   If payment is not received or arrangements made for payment by
                  the date given in the written notification, ITC/\DeltaCom's
                  services will be discontinued. Upon discontinuance of service
                  on a ITC/\DeltaCom account, service to ITC/\DeltaCom's end
                  users will be denied. BellSouth will also reestablish service
                  at the request of the end user or ITC/\DeltaCom upon payment
                  of the appropriate connection fee and subject to BellSouth's
                  normal application procedures. ITC/\DeltaCom is solely
                  responsible for notifying the end user of the proposed
                  disconnection of the service.

Note:  IN ADDITION TO THE OSS CHARGES, APPLICABLE DISCOUNTED SERVICE ORDER AND
RELATED DISCOUNTED CHARGES APPLY PER THE TARIFF.

DENIAL/RESTORAL OSS CHARGE

In the event ITC/\DeltaCom provides a list of customers to be denied and
restored, rather than an LSR, each location on the list will require a separate
PON and, therefore will be billed as one LSR per location.
CANCELLATION OSS CHARGE

ITC/\DeltaCom will incur an OSS charge for an accepted LSR that is later
canceled by ITC/\DeltaCom.

Note: Supplements or clarfications to a previously billed LSR will not incur
another OSS charge.

The Parties agree that ITC/\DELTACOM will incur the mechanized rate for all
LSRs, both mechanized and manual, if the percentage of mechanized LSRs to total
LSRs meets or exceeds the threshold percentages shown below:

         Year             Ratio: Mechanized/Total LSRs

         2000                         80%

         2001                         90%

The threshold plan will be discontinued in 2002.

BellSouth will track the total LSR volume for each CLEC for each quarter. At the
end of that time period, a Percent Electronic LSR calculation will be made for
that quarter based on the LSR data tracked in the LCSC. If this percentage
exceeds the threshold volume, all of that CLECs' future manual LSRs will be
billed at the mechanized LSR rate. To allow time for obtaining and analyzing the
data and updating the billing system, this billing change will take place on the
first day of the second month following the end of the quarter (e.g. May 1 for
1Q, Aug 1 for 2Q, etc.). There will be no adjustments to the amount billed for
previously billed LSRs.

                      ACCESS TO UNBUNDLED NETWORK ELEMENTS

1.                INTRODUCTION

1.1               BellSouth shall, upon request of ITC/\DeltaCom, and to the
                  extent technically feasible, provide to ITC/\DeltaCom access
                  to its unbundled network elements for the provision of
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's telecommunications service. If no rate is
                  identified in the contract, the rate for the specific service
                  or function will be as set forth in applicable BellSouth
                  tariff or as negotiated by the parties upon request by either
                  party. Services cannot be charged as unbundled network
                  elements; for example, ordering services from the tariff to a
                  point collocated in a Central Office shall not incur UNE local
                  loop or cross connect charges. At ITC/\DeltaCom's option,
                  access services may be ordered to the collocation space.

1.2               ITC/\DeltaCom may purchase unbundled network elements from
                  BellSouth for use in any manner ITC/\DeltaCom chooses to
                  provide telecommunication services to its intended users,
                  including recreating existing BellSouth services. With the
                  exception of the sub-loop elements which are located outside
                  of the central office, BellSouth shall deliver the unbundled
                  network elements purchased by ITC/\DeltaCom for combining to
                  the designated ITC/\DeltaCom collocation space. The unbundled
                  network elements shall be provided as set forth in this
                  Attachment.

1.3               BellSouth will provide the following combined unbundled
                  network elements for purchase by ITC/\DeltaCom. The rate of
                  the following combined unbundled network elements is the sum
                  of the individual element prices as set forth in Attachment
                  11. Order Coordination as defined in Section 2 of Attachment 2
                  of this Agreement is available for each of these combinations.
                  Order Coordination for combinations listed below involving an
                  SL1 loop is available only at an additional charge:

                  o  Loop and cross connect
                  o  Port and cross connect
                  o  Port and cross connect and vertical features
                  o  Port and cross connect and common transport
                  o  Port and cross connect and common transport and vertical
                     features
                  o  Port and vertical features
                  o  Loop with loop channelization (inside central office)
                  o  Loop with loop channelization (inside central office) and
                     LNP

                                                                          PAGE 4

1.4               BellSouth shall comply with the requirements as set forth in
                  the technical references within Attachment 2 to the extent
                  that they are consistent with the greater of BellSouth's
                  actual performance or applicable industry standards.

1.5               In the event that any effective legislative, regulatory,
                  judicial or other legal action modifies or redefines the
                  "Network Elements" in a manner which materially affects the
                  terms of this Attachment or the Network Elements and/or prices
                  set forth herein, either Party may, on thirty (30) days
                  written notice, require renegotiation of such terms, and the
                  Parties shall renegotiate in good faith such new terms in
                  accordance with such legislative, regulatory, judicial or
                  other legal action. In the event such new terms are not
                  renegotiated within ninety (90) days after the notice for
                  renegotiation, either party may petition the Commission for
                  resolution of the dispute between the Parties. Each Party

2.                UNBUNDLED LOOPS

2.1               BellSouth agrees to offer access to unbundled loops pursuant
                  to the following terms and conditions and at the rates set
                  forth in this Attachment.

2.2               DEFINITION

2.2.1             The loop is the physical medium or functional path on which a
                  subscriber's traffic is carried from the MDF or similar
                  terminating device in a central office up to the termination
                  at the NID at the customer's premise. Each unbundled loop will
                  be provisioned with a NID.

2.2.2             The provisioning of loops to ITC/\DeltaCom will require
                  cross-office cabling and cross-connections within the central
                  office to connect the loop to a local switch or to other
                  transmission equipment in collocation space. These
                  cross-connects are a separate element and are not considered a
                  part of the loop.

2.2.2.1           BellSouth Order Coordination referenced in this Attachment
                  includes two types: "Order Coordination" and "Order
                  Coordination - Time Specific."

2.2.2.2           "Order Coordination" (also known as Manual Order Coordination)
                  refers to standard BellSouth service order coordination
                  involving SL2 and 4-wire voice loops and all digital loops.
                  Order coordination for physical conversions will be scheduled
                  at BellSouth's discretion during normal working hours on the
                  committed due date and ITC/\DeltaCom advised.

                                                                          PAGE 5

2.2.2.3           "Order Coordination - Time Specific" (also known as Order
                  Coordination - Time Specific) refers to service order
                  coordination in which ITC/\DeltaCom requests a specific time
                  for a service order conversion to take place. Loops on a
                  single service order of 14 or more loops will be provisioned
                  on a project basis. OC-TS is a chargeable option in addition
                  to any applicable OC charge. ITC/\DeltaCom may specify a time
                  between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. If
                  ITC/\DeltaCom specifies a time outside this window, or selects
                  a time or quantity of loops that requires BellSouth
                  technicians to work outside normal work hours, overtime
                  charges will apply in addition to the OC-TS charges.

2.2.2.4           Where facilities are available, BellSouth will install
                  unbundled loops within a 5-7 business days interval. For
                  orders of 14 or more unbundled loops, the installation will be
                  handled on a project basis and the intervals will be set by
                  the BellSouth project manager for that order. Said interval
                  will be set in a reasonable manner and in accordance with any
                  required extra work times. Some unbundled loops require a
                  Service Inquiry (SI) to determine if facilities are available
                  prior to issuing the order. The interval for the SI process is
                  separate from the installation interval. For expedite requests
                  by ITC/\DeltaCom, expedite charges will apply for intervals
                  less than 5 days. The charges outlined in BellSouth's FCC # 1
                  Tariff, Section 5.1.1, will apply. If ITC/\DeltaCom cancels an
                  order for UNE services, any costs incurred by BellSouth in
                  conjunction with the provisioning of that order will be
                  recovered in accordance with FCC #1 Tariff, Section 5.4.

2.2.3             BellSouth will offer Unbundled Voice Loops (UVL) in two
                  different service levels - Service Level One (SL1) and Service
                  Level Two (SL2). SL1 loops will be non-designed, and will not
                  have test points. Order Coordination (OC) and/or engineering
                  information/circuit make-up data will be chargeable options.
                  Upon issuance of an order in the service order system, SL1
                  loops without optional Order Coordination will be activated on
                  the due date in the same manner and time frames that BellSouth
                  normally activates POTS-type loops for its customers;
                  provided, however, that for loop activation in BellSouth
                  staffed central offices, BellSouth will use its best efforts
                  to provide an a.m. or p.m. designation only where loop
                  activation requires dispatching of a BellSouth technician and
                  where ITC/\DeltaCom has specifically requested an a.m. or p.m.
                  preference for activation on the LSR. Further, for loop
                  activation in BellSouth central offices that are not staffed,
                  BellSouth will use its best efforts to provide an a.m. or p.m.
                  designation only where loop activation requires dispatching of
                  a BellSouth technician and where ITC/\DeltaCom has
                  specifically requested a.m. or p.m. preference for activation
                  on the LSR. SL2 loops shall have test points, will be designed
                  with a Design Layout Record provided to ITC/\DeltaCom, and
                  will be provided with Order Coordination. The OC feature will
                  allow ITC/\DeltaCom to coordinate the installation of the loop
                  with the disconnect of an existing customer's service and/or
                  number portability service. In these cases, BellSouth will
                  perform the order conversion with standard order coordination
                  at its discretion during normal work hours.
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                          PAGE 6

2.2.4             BellSouth will also offer Unbundled Digital Loops (UDL). They
                  will be designed (where appropriate), will be provisioned with
                  test points (where appropriate), and will come standard with
                  Order Coordination and a Design Layout Record (DLR).

2.2.5             As a chargeable option on all unbundled loops BellSouth will
                  offer Order Coordination - Time Specific (OC-TS). This will
                  allow ITC/\DeltaCom the ability to specify the time that the
                  coordinated conversion takes place.

2.2.6             ITC/\DeltaCom will be responsible for testing and isolating
                  troubles on the unbundled loops. Once ITC/\DeltaCom has
                  isolated a trouble to the BellSouth provided loop,
                  ITC/\DeltaCom will issue a trouble to BellSouth on the loop.
                  BellSouth will take the actions necessary to repair the loop
                  if a trouble actually exists. BellSouth will repair these
                  loops in the same time frames that BellSouth repairs similarly
                  situated loops to its customers

2.2.7             Either Party may charge the other for dispatching and testing
                  of a trouble where the trouble was found not to be in the
                  network of the dispatching or testing Party and the
                  dispatching or testing Party's equipment did not cause the
                  dispatch. Where there is a dispute as to the appropriateness
                  of such charge, the Parties will meet and review the record of
                  repair history and determine whether the charge was
                  appropriate. Charges so assessed by BellSouth shall be on a
                  time and materials basis as set forth in BellSouth's state
                  commission approved tariffs. Charges so assessed by
                  ITC/\DeltaCom shall be on a time and materials basis as set
                  forth in ITC/\DeltaCom's state commission approved tariffs. If
                  ITC/\DeltaCom does not have state commission approved tariffs
                  addressing such charges, then such charges shall be assessed
                  by ITC/\DeltaCom at the rates set forth in BellSouth's
                  tariffs. If the trouble which was originally found not to be
                  in the network of the dispatching or testing Party is later
                  proven to be a trouble in the dispatching or testing Party's
                  network, the dispatching or testing Party shall waive or
                  refund any such charges.

2.2.8             ORDERING PROCESS

2.2.8.1           The ordering process for unbundled loops shall proceed in
                  accordance with this Section 2.2.8 and Attachment 6 of this
                  Agreement.

2.2.8.2           BellSouth shall exercise its best efforts in attempting to
                  meet the conversion time ITC/\DeltaCom requests through the
                  LSR. However, unless ITC/\DeltaCom's LSR specifies a
                  time-specific conversion, in which case the conversion must
                  commence at the time indicated in the LSR, then within
                  forty-eight (48) to twenty-four (24) hours prior to the date
                  and time requested for the loop conversion in ITC/\DeltaCom's
                  LSR and acknowledged in BellSouth's FOC, BellSouth may contact
                  ITC/\DeltaCom, via telephone, to finalize a scheduled
                  conversion time (i.e., a specific time, on the date set forth
                  in the FOC) which may be different from the conversion time
                  ITC/\DeltaCom requested in the LSR. The scheduled
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                          PAGE 7

                  conversion time shall be the time at which the parties shall
                  commence coordination of loop installation with the disconnect
                  and reconnect of an end user's service and any number
                  portability update. BellSouth shall not assess any additional
                  charges for scheduled conversion times commencing between
                  BellSouth normal business hours as set forth in Section 4.6.1
                  of Attachment 6.

2.2.8.3           At the scheduled conversion time, BellSouth shall have a sixty
                  (60) minute window within which it shall contact ITC/\DeltaCom
                  to begin the loop conversion process. Provided, however, that
                  if ITC/\DeltaCom requested a time-specific conversion, the
                  conversion shall commence at the time indicated in
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's LSR and be completed consistently with
                  timeframes for time-specific conversions.

2.2.8.3.1         If either Party dispatches a technician for a loop conversion
                  and the other Party fails to complete the conversion at the
                  scheduled time, the non-performing Party may be charged the
                  one (1) hour additional engineering charges set forth in
                  BellSouth's FCC No. 1 tariff, Section 13.1.

2.2.8.4           After the loop conversion process commences, a coordinated
                  loop cutover, which shall include coordinated conversion of
                  number portability, shall be completed within the following
                  time periods:

2.2.8.4.1         For single loop conversions per location, the conversion shall
                  be completed within fifteen (15) minutes;

2.2.8.4.2         For up to ten (10) loop conversions per location, the
                  conversion of all loops shall be completed within sixty (60)
                  minutes, and each individual loop conversion shall be
                  completed within fifteen (15) minutes;

2.2.8.4.3         For loop conversions not exceeding thirty (30) loops per
                  location and not determined complex or exceptionally large,
                  the conversion of all loops shall be completed within one
                  hundred and twenty (120) minutes. All loops above a thirty
                  loop quantity, or ten (10) loop quantity and determined as
                  complex (a cut that requires more operation than a single cut
                  point), will be negotiated by ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth
                  prior to the due date.

2.2.8.4.4         BellSouth agrees that upon ITC/\DeltaCom's request, for order
                  coordinated loop cutovers involving three (3) or more lines,
                  at least two lines will remain in service at all times during
                  the conversion process.

2.2.8.5           Where facilities for requested new services do not currently
                  exist, the installation intervals will be determined by
                  BellSouth. ITC/\DeltaCom will then be notified of the targeted
                  due date. BellSouth shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom adequate
                  justification and an explanation of the unusual circumstances
                  that caused BellSouth to be unable to meet these commitments.

                                                                          PAGE 8

2.3               TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

2.3.1             To the extent available within BST's Network at a particular
                  location, BellSouth will offer loops capable of supporting
                  telecommunications services such as: POTS, Centrex, basic rate
                  ISDN, analog PBX, voice grade private line, ADSL, HDSL, DS1
                  and digital data (up to 64 kb/s). Additional services may
                  include digital PBXs, primary rate ISDN, xDSL, and Nx 64 kb/s.
                  If a requested loop type is not available, then ITC/\DeltaCom
                  can use the Special Construction process to request that
                  BellSouth place facilities or otherwise modify facilities in
                  order to meet the ITC/\DeltaCom's request.

2.3.1.1           The loop will support the transmission, signaling, performance
                  and interface requirements of the services described in 2.3.1
                  above. It is recognized that the requirements of different
                  services are different, and that a number of types or grades
                  of loops are required to support these services. Services
                  provided over the loop by ITC/\DeltaCom will be consistent
                  with industry standards and BST's TR73600.

2.3.1.2           In some instances, ITC/\DeltaCom will require access to a
                  copper twisted pair loop unfettered by any intervening
                  equipment (e.g., filters, load coils, range extenders, etc.)
                  and/or limited amounts of bridge/end taps, so that
                  ITC/\DeltaCom can use the loop for a variety of services by
                  attaching appropriate terminal equipment at the ends.
                  ITC/\DeltaCom will determine the type of service that will be
                  provided over the loop. In some cases, ITC/\DeltaCom may be
                  required to pay additional charges for the removal of certain
                  types of equipment. Unless and until BellSouth implements a
                  separate charge for loop conditioning, BellSouth's Special
                  Construction process will be used to determine the costs and
                  feasibility of these activities. If ITC/\DeltaCom requests
                  loop conditioning as described in this Section, BellSouth will
                  construct the loop type ordered and will maintain such loop to
                  the characteristics and specifications of the loop type
                  ordered.

2.3.1.2.1         In cases in which ITC/\DeltaCom has requested that BellSouth
                  remove equipment from the BellSouth loop, BellSouth will no
                  longer be expected to maintain and repair the loop to the
                  standards specified for that original loop type in the TR73600
                  and other standards referenced in this Agreement.

2.3.1.2.2.        ITC/\DeltaCom, in performance of its obligations pursuant to
                  the preceding Section, shall maintain records that will
                  reflect that pursuant to ITC/\DeltaCom's request BellSouth has
                  removed certain equipment from BellSouth provided loops and as
                  such, the loop may not perform within the technical
                  specifications associated with the original loop type.
                  ITC/\DeltaCom will not report to BellSouth troubles on said
                  loops where the loops are not performing within the technical
                  specifications of that original loop type. However, in the
                  event that
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                          PAGE 9

                  ITC/\DeltaCom has requested such modifications to the loop and
                  troubles arise on the modified loop, BellSouth will restore
                  the loop only to maintain the technical characteristics of (1)
                  electrical (DC) continuity, (2) balance between tip and ring,
                  and (3) resistance on loops no longer than 18,000 feet. On
                  loops longer than 18,000 feet, resistance will be maintained
                  where technically feasible.

2.3.1.2           In addition, ITC/\DeltaCom recognizes there may be instances,
                  where a loop modified in this manner may be subjected to
                  normal network configuration changes that may cause the
                  circuit characteristics to be changed and may create an outage
                  of the service that ITC/\DeltaCom has placed on the loop. If
                  this occurs, BellSouth will work cooperatively with
                  ITC/\DeltaCom to restore the circuit to its previous modified
                  status as quickly as possible. ITC/\DeltaCom will pay the Time
                  and Materials costs associated with BellSouth's work efforts
                  needed to bring the loop back to its previous modified status.
                  BellSouth will use best efforts to prevent the occurrence of
                  such changes.

2.3.1.3           To the extent BellSouth converts a resold service to unbundled
                  network elements for any telecommunications carrier, BellSouth
                  shall make available to ITC/\DeltaCom the same conversion for
                  the same services and elements on the same terms and
                  conditions and at the same rates, if any; provided, however
                  that the rate for such conversion shall not exceed those rates
                  set forth in Attachment 11 to this Agreement. The Parties
                  agree that such rates are interim and upon establishment of a
                  permanent rate, either through negotiation or by order of the
                  Commission, the parties will amend this Agreement to reflect
                  the new rate and will true up such rate retroactively back to
                  the effective date of this Agreement.

2.3.1.4           BellSouth shall develop a process to identify the carrier for
                  each unbundled loop and establish automated inter-company
                  referral and/or call hand-off processes for an additional
                  charge developed via the BFR process. In addition,
                  ITC/\DeltaCom may deploy DLC equipment (TR 303 compliant) in
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's collocation space or in ITC/\DeltaCom's
                  network.

2.3.2             The loop shall be provided to ITC/\DeltaCom in accordance with
                  the following Technical References:

3.                INTEGRATED DIGITAL LOOP CARRIERS

                  Consistent with the Commission's decision in Docket No.
                  990750-TP, BellSouth shall provide IDLC functionality to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom if it is within the existing functionality and
                  capacity of the serving switch. In addition, if it is within
                  the existing functionality and capacity of the serving switch,
                  BellSouth shall use a "side-door" method. If an unbundled loop
                  using IDLC technology is not within the existing functionality
                  and capacity of the serving switch, ITC/\DeltaCom may submit
                  its order for an unbundled loop using IDLC technology through
                  the BFR process.

4.                NETWORK INTERFACE DEVICE

4.1               DEFINITION

                  The NID is defined as any means of interconnection of end-user
                  customer inside wire to BellSouth's distribution plant, such
                  as a cross-connect device used for that purpose. The NID is a
                  single-line termination device or that portion of a
                  multiple-line termination device required to terminate a
                  single line or circuit at the premises. The NID features two
                  independent chambers or divisions that separate the service
                  provider's network from the End User's on-premises wiring.
                  Each chamber or division contains the appropriate connection
                  points or posts to which the service provider and the end user
                  each make their connections. The NID provides a protective
                  ground connection and is capable of terminating cables such as
                  twisted pair cable.

4.2               BellSouth shall permit ITC/\DeltaCom to connect
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's loop facilities the end-user's inside wire
                  through the BellSouth NID or at any other technically feasible
                  point.

4.3               ACCESS TO NETWORK INTERFACE DEVICE (NID)

4.3.1             Due to the wide variety of NIDs utilized by BellSouth (based
                  on subscriber size and environmental considerations),
                  ITC/\DeltaCom may access the end user's wire by any of the
                  following means: BellSouth shall allow ITC/\DeltaCom to
                  connect its loops directly to BellSouth's multi-line
                  residential NID enclosures that have additional space and are
                  not used by BellSouth or any other telecommunications carriers
                  to provide service to the premise. ITC/\DeltaCom agrees to
                  install compatible protectors and test jacks and to maintain
                  the protection system and equipment and to indemnify BellSouth
                  pursuant to Section 6 of the General Terms and Conditions of
                  this Agreement.

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 11

4.3.1.1           Where an adequate length of the end user's inside wire is
                  present and environmental conditions permit, either Party may
                  remove the inside wire from the other Party's NID and connect
                  that wire to that Party's own NID; or

4.3.1.2           Enter the subscriber access chamber or "side" of "dual
                  chamber" NID enclosures for the purpose of extending a
                  connecterized or spliced jumper wire from the inside wiring
                  through a suitable "punch-out" hole of such NID enclosures; or

4.3.1.3           Request BellSouth to make other rearrangements to the inside
                  wiring terminations or terminal enclosure on a time and
                  materials cost basis to be charged to the requesting Party
                  (i.e., ITC/\DeltaCom, its agent, the building owner or the
                  subscriber). Such charges will be billed to the requesting
                  Party.

4.3.1.4           In no case shall either Party remove or disconnect the other
                  Party's loop facilities from either Party's NIDs, enclosures,
                  or protectors unless: (1) the applicable Commission has
                  expressly permitted the same; (2) the disconnecting Party
                  provides prior notice to the other Party, and (3) the Party
                  disconnecting appropriately caps off and guards the other
                  Party's loops. It will be ITC/\DeltaCom's responsibility to
                  ensure there is no safety hazard and will hold BellSouth
                  harmless for any liability associated with the removal of the
                  BellSouth loop from the BellSouth NID. In such cases, it shall
                  be the responsibility of the disconnecting party, once the
                  other Party's loop has been disconnected from the NID, to
                  reconnect the disconnected loop to a nationally-
                  recognized-testing-laboratory-listed station protector, which
                  has been grounded as per Article 800 of the National
                  Electrical Code. If ITC/\DeltaCom does not wish to accept this
                  responsibility, other options exist in which BellSouth
                  installs a NID for ITC/\DeltaCom as a chargeable option.

4.3.1.5           In no case shall either Party remove or disconnect ground
                  wires from BellSouth's NIDs, enclosures, or protectors.

4.3.1.6           In no case shall either Party remove or disconnect NID
                  modules, protectors, or terminals from BellSouth's NID
                  enclosures.

4.3.1.7           Due to the wide variety of NID enclosures and outside plant
                  environments BellSouth will work with ITC/\DeltaCom to develop
                  specific procedures to establish the most effective means of
                  implementing this Section 4.

4.3.2             TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

4.3.2.1           The NID shall provide an accessible point of interconnection
                  and shall maintain a connection to ground.

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 12

4.3.2.2           The NID shall be capable of transferring electrical analog or
                  digital signals between the subscriber's inside wiring and the
                  Distribution Media and/or cross connect to ITC/\DeltaCom's
                  NID, consistent with the NID's function at the Effective Date
                  of this Agreement.

4.3.2.3           Where a BellSouth NID exists, it is provided in its "as is"
                  condition. ITC/\DeltaCom may request BellSouth do additional
                  work to the NID in accordance with Section 4.3.1.7. When
                  ITC/\DeltaCom deploys its own local loops with respect to
                  multiple-line termination devices, ITC/\DeltaCom shall specify
                  the quantity of NIDs connections that it requires within such
                  device.

4.3.1             INTERFACE REQUIREMENTS

4.3.2             The NID shall be equal to or better than all of the
                  requirements for NIDs set forth in the following technical
                  references:

5.                UNBUNDLED LOOP CONCENTRATION (ULC) SYSTEM

5.1               BellSouth will provide to ITC/\DeltaCom Unbundled Loop
                  Concentration (ULC). Loop concentration systems in the central
                  office concentrate the signals transmitted over local loops
                  onto a digital loop carrier system. The concentration device
                  is placed inside a BellSouth central office. BellSouth will
                  offer ULC with a TR008 interface or a TR303 interface

5.2               ULC will be offered in two sizes. System A will allow up to 96
                  BellSouth loops to be concentrated onto multiple DS1s. The
                  high-speed connection from the concentrator will be at the
                  electrical DS1 level and may connect to ITC/\DeltaCom at
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's collocation site. System B will allow up to
                  192 BellSouth loops to be concentrated onto multiple DS1s.
                  System A may be upgraded to a System B. A minimum of two DS1s
                  is required for each system (i.e., System A requires two DS1s
                  and System B would require an additional two DS1s or four in
                  total). All DS1 interfaces will terminate to the CLEC's
                  collocation space. ULC service is offered with or without
                  concentration and with or without protection. A

                                                                         PAGE 13

                  Line Interface element will be required for each loop that is
                  terminated onto the ULC system. Rates for ULC are as set forth
                  in this Attachment 11.

6.                SUB-LOOP ELEMENTS

6.1               Where facilities permit and subject to applicable and
                  effective FCC rules and orders, BellSouth shall offer access
                  to its Unbundled Sub Loop (USL) and Unbundled Sub-loop
                  Concentration (USLC) System. BellSouth shall provide
                  non-discriminatory access, in accordance with 51.311 and
                  Section 251(c) (3) of the Act, to the sub-loop. On an
                  unbundled basis and pursuant to the following terms and
                  conditions and the rates approved by the Commission and set
                  forth in Attachment 11 of this Agreement.

6.1.1             Sub-loop components include but are not limited to the
                  following:

6.1.2             Unbundled Sub-Loop Distribution;

6.1.3             Unbundled Sub-Loop Concentration/Multiplexing Functionality;
                  and

6.1.4             Unbundled Sub-Loop Feeder.

6.2               UNBUNDLED SUB-LOOP (DISTRIBUTION FACILITIES)

6.2.1             DEFINITION

6.2.2             Subject to applicable and effective FCC rules and orders, the
                  unbundled sub-loop distribution facility is dedicated
                  transmission facility that BellSouth provides from a
                  customer's point of demarcation to a BellSouth cross-connect
                  device. The BellSouth cross-connect device may be located
                  within a remote terminal (RT) or a stand-alone cross-box in
                  the field or in the equipment room of a building. The
                  unbundled sub-loop distribution media is a copper twisted pair
                  that can be provisioned as a 2 Wire or 4 Wire facility.
                  Following are the current sub-loop distribution offerings:

6.2.2.1           Voice grade Unbundled Sub-Loop Distribution (USL-D) is a
                  sub-loop facility from the cross-box in the field up to and
                  including the point of demarcation, at the end user's
                  premises.

6.2.2.2           Unbundled Sub-Loop distribution facilities were originally
                  built as part of the entire voice grade loop from the
                  BellSouth central office to the customer network interface.
                  Therefore, the voice grade Unbundled Sub-Loop may have load
                  coils, which are necessary for transmission of voice grade
                  services.

6.2.2.3           Unbundled Copper Sub-Loop (UCSL) is a non-loaded copper
                  facility of any length provided from the cross-box in the
                  field up to and including the end-user's point of demarcation.

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 14

6.2.2.3.1         If available, this facility will not have any intervening
                  equipment such as load coils between the end-user and the
                  cross-box.

6.3               If ITC/\DeltaCom requests a UCSL and a non-loaded pair is not
                  available, ITC/\DeltaCom may order Unbundled Sub-Loop
                  Modification to remove load coils and/or bridge tap from an
                  existing sub-loop facility. If load coils are removed from an
                  existing sub-loop, that sub-loop will be classified as a UCSL.
                  ITC/\DeltaCom may order Loop Make-up to determine what loop
                  modifications will be required.

6.3.1             Unbundled Sub-Loop distribution facilities shall support
                  functions associated with provisioning, maintenance and
                  testing of the Unbundled Sub-Loop. For access to Voice Grade
                  USL-D and UCSL, ITC/\DeltaCom would be required to deliver a
                  cable to the BellSouth remote terminal or cross-box in the
                  field to provide continuity to ITC/\DeltaCom's feeder
                  facilities. This cable would be connected, by a BellSouth
                  technician, within the BellSouth RT/cross-box during the
                  set-up process. ITC/\DeltaCom's cable pairs can then be
                  connected to BellSouth's USL within the BellSouth cross-box by
                  the BellSouth technician.

6.3.2             Unbundled Sub-Loop - Intrabuilding Network Cable (USL-INC)
                  (a.k.a. riser cable) is the distribution facility inside a
                  subscribers' building or between buildings on one customer's
                  same premises (continuous property not separated by a public
                  street or road). USL-INC includes the facility from the
                  cross-connect device in the building equipment room up to and
                  including the point of demarcation, at the end user's
                  premises. In a scenario that requires connection in a building
                  equipment room, BellSouth will install a cross connect panel
                  that will be installed for the purpose of accessing USL-INC
                  pairs. The cross-connect panel will function as a single point
                  of interconnection (SPOI) for USL-INC and will be accessible
                  by multiple carriers as space permits. BellSouth will place
                  cross-connect blocks in 25 pair increments for ITC/\DeltaCom's
                  use on this cross-connect panel. ITC/\DeltaCom will be
                  responsible for connecting its facilities to the 25 pair
                  cross-connect block(s).

6.3.3             BellSouth will provide Unbundled Sub-Loops where possible.
                  Through the firm order Service Inquiry (SI) process, BellSouth
                  will determine if it is feasible to place the required
                  facilities where ITC/\DeltaCom has requested access to
                  Unbundled Sub-Loops. If existing capacity is sufficient to
                  meet ITC/\DeltaCom's demand, then BellSouth will perform the
                  set-up work as described in Section 6.3.4. If any work must be
                  done to modify existing BellSouth facilities or add new
                  facilities (other than adding the cross-connect panel in a
                  building equipment room as noted in 6.3.4) to accommodate
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's request for Unbundled Sub-Loops, ITC/\DeltaCom
                  may request BellSouth's Special Construction (SC) process to
                  determine additional costs required to provision the Unbundled
                  Sub-Loops. ITC/\DeltaCom will have the option of paying the SC
                  charges to modify the BellSouth facilities.

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 15

6.3.4             Set-up work must be completed before ITC/\DeltaCom can order
                  sub-loop pairs. During the set-up in a BellSouth cross-connect
                  box in the field, the BellSouth technician will perform the
                  necessary work to splice ITC/\DeltaCom's cable into the
                  cross-connect box. For the set-up inside a building equipment
                  room, BellSouth will perform the necessary work to install the
                  cross-connect panel and the connecting block(s) that will be
                  used to provide access to the requested USLs.

6.3.5             Once the set-up is complete, ITC/\DeltaCom will request
                  sub-loop pairs through submission of a Local Service Request
                  (LSR) form to the Local Carrier Service Center (LCSC). Manual
                  Order Coordination is required with USL pair provisioning and
                  is in addition to the USL pair rate. For expedite requests by
                  ITC/\DeltaCom for sub-loop pairs, expedite charges will apply
                  for intervals less than 5 days.

6.3.6             Unbundled Sub-Loop shall be equal to or better than each of
                  the applicable requirements set forth in the applicable
                  industry standard technical references.

6.3.7             Unbundled Sub-Loops will be provided in accordance with
                  technical reference TR73600.

6.4               UNBUNDLED SUB-LOOP CONCENTRATION SYSTEM (USLC)

6.4.1             Where facilities permit and where necessary to comply with an
                  effective Commission order, BellSouth will provide
                  ITC/\DeltaCom with the ability to concentrate its sub-loops
                  onto multiple DS1s back to the BellSouth Central Office. The
                  DS1s will then be terminated into ITC/\DeltaCom collocation
                  space. TR-008 and TR303 interface standards are available.

6.4.2             USLC, using the Lucent Series 5 equipment, will be offered in
                  two different systems. System A will allow up to 96 of
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's sub-loops to be concentrated onto multiple
                  DS1s. System B will allow an additional 96 of ITC/\DeltaCom's
                  sub-loops to be concentrated onto multiple DS1s. One System A
                  may be supplemented with one System B and they both must be
                  physically located in a single Series 5 dual channel bank. A
                  minimum of two DS1s is required for each system (i.e., System
                  A requires two DS1s and System B would require an additional
                  two DS1s or four in total). The DS1 level facility that
                  connects the RT site with the serving wire center is known as
                  a Feeder Interface. All DS1 Feeder Interfaces will terminate
                  to ITC/\DeltaCom's collocation space within the SWC that
                  serves the RT where ITC/\DeltaCom's sub-loops are connected.
                  USLC service is offered with or without concentration and with
                  or without a protection DS1.

6.4.3             In these scenarios ITC/\DeltaCom would be required to place a
                  cross-box, remote terminal (RT), or other similar device and
                  deliver a cable to the BellSouth remote terminal. This cable
                  would be connected, by a BellSouth technician, to a
                  cross-connect panel within the BellSouth RT/cross-box and
                  would allow

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 16

                  ITC/\DeltaCom's sub-loops to then be placed on the ULSC and
                  transported to their collocation space at a DS1 level.

6.5               UNBUNDLED SUB-LOOP FEEDER

6.5.1             DEFINITION

6.5.2             Unbundled Sub-Loop Feeder (USLF) provides connectivity between
                  BellSouth's central office and its cross-box (or other access
                  point) that serves an end user location.

6.5.3             USLF is intended to be utilized for voice traffic and can be
                  configured as 2-wire voice (USLF-2W/V) or 4-wire voice
                  (USLF-4W/V).

6.5.4             USLF can also to be utilized for digital traffic and can be
                  configured as 2-wire ISDN (USLF-2W/I); 2-wire Copper
                  (USLF-2W/C); 4-wire Copper (USLF-4W/C) facilities: 4-wire DS0
                  level loop (USLF-4W/D0); or 4-wire DS1 & ISDN (USLF-4W/DI).

6.5.5             USLF will provide the facilities needed to provision a 2W or
                  4W communications pathway from the BellSouth central office to
                  the BellSouth cross-box. This element will allow for the
                  connection of ITC/\DeltaCom's loop distribution elements onto
                  BellSouth's feeder system.

6.6               REQUIREMENTS

6.6.1             ITC/\DeltaCom will extend its compatible cable to BellSouth's
                  cross-box. The cable will then be connected to a panel inside
                  the BellSouth cross-box to the requested level of feeder
                  element. In those cases when there is no room in the BellSouth
                  cross-box to accommodate the additional cross-connect panels
                  mentioned above, BellSouth will utilize its Special
                  Construction process to determine the costs to provide the
                  sub-loop feeder element to ITC/\DeltaCom. ITC/\DeltaCom will
                  then have the option of paying the special construction
                  charges or canceling the order.

6.6.2             USLF will be a designed circuit and BellSouth will provide a
                  Design Layout Record (DLR) for this element.

6.6.3             BellSouth will provide USLF elements in accordance with
                  applicable industry standards for these types of facilities.
                  Where industry standards do not exist, BellSouth's TR73600
                  will be used to determine performance parameters.

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 17

7.1               BellSouth agrees to offer its Unbundled Network Terminating
                  Wire (UNTW) to ITC/\DeltaCom pursuant to the following terms
                  and conditions at rates as set forth in Attachment 11.

7.2               DEFINITION

7.3               Subject to applicable and effective FCC rules and orders, UNTW
                  is a dedicated transmission facility that BellSouth provides
                  from the Wiring Closet /Garden Terminal (or other type of
                  cross-connect point) at the point of termination of
                  BellSouth's loop distribution facilities to the end user's
                  point of demarcation. UNTW is the final portion of the loop
                  owned by BellSouth.

7.4               REQUIREMENTS

7.4.1             On a multi-unit premises where Provisioning Party owns the
                  network terminating wire, and by request of Requesting Party,
                  Provisioning Party will provide access to UNTW pairs on an
                  Access Terminal that is suitable for use by multiple carriers
                  at each Garden Terminal or Wiring Closet.

7.4.2             In new construction where possible, both Parties may at their
                  option and with the property owner's agreement install their
                  own Network Terminating Wire (NTW). In existing construction,
                  the Provisioning Party shall not be required to install new or
                  additional NTW beyond existing NTW to provision the services
                  of the Requesting Party.

7.4.3             Upon notice from the Requesting Party to the Provisioning
                  party that the Requesting Party desires access to the
                  Provisioning Party's UNTW pairs in a multi-unit premises,
                  representatives of both Parties will participate in a meeting
                  at the site of the requested access. The purpose of the site
                  visit will include discussion of the procedures for Access
                  Terminal installation, location and addresses of the Access
                  Terminals and to discuss an estimated completion date. Upon
                  completion of site visit, the Requesting Party will submit a
                  Service Inquiry (SI) to the person or organization designated
                  by the Provisioning Party to receive the SI. The SI will
                  initiate the work for the Provisioning Party to begin the
                  Access Terminal installation. In multi-tenant unit (MTU)
                  scenarios, Provisioning Party will provide access to UNTW
                  pairs on an Access Terminal(s). By request of the Requesting
                  Party, an Access Terminal will be installed either adjacent to
                  each Provisioning Party's Garden Terminal or inside each
                  Wiring Closet on the requested MTU. All the UNTW pairs served
                  by a Garden Terminal/Wiring Closet will be made available on
                  the Access Terminals. Requesting Party will deliver and
                  connect its central office facilities to the UNTW pairs within
                  the Access Terminal. Requesting Party may access any available
                  pair on an Access Terminal unless the Provisioning Party or
                  another service provider is using the pair to concurrently
                  provide service. Prior to connecting Requesting Party's
                  service on a pair previously used by Provisioning party,
                  Requesting Party is responsible for
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 18

                  ensuring the end-user is no longer using Provisioning Party's
                  service or another CLEC's service before accessing UNTW pairs.

7.4.4             Provisioning Party will use best efforts to complete
                  installation of the Access Terminals within 30 business days
                  of the receipt by the Provisioning Party of the Service
                  Inquiry from the Requesting Party.

7.4.5             Requesting Party is responsible for obtaining the property
                  owner's permission for Provisioning Party to install an Access
                  Terminal(s) on behalf of the Requesting Party. The submission
                  of the SI by the Requesting Party will serve as certification
                  by the Requesting Party that such permission has been
                  obtained.

7.4.6             Requesting Party will be billed for non-recurring and
                  recurring charges for accessing UNTW pairs at the time the
                  Requesting Party activates the pair(s). ITC/\DeltaCom will
                  report use of the UNTW pairs on a Local Service Request (LSR)
                  form submitted to BellSouth's Local Carrier Service Center
                  (LCSC).

7.4.7             Requesting Party will isolate and report repair problems to
                  the UNE center. Requesting Party must tag the UNTW pair that
                  requires repair. If Provisioning Party dispatches a technician
                  on a reported trouble call and no UNTW trouble is found,
                  Provisioning Party will charge Requesting Party for time spent
                  on the dispatch and testing the UNTW pair(s).

7.4.8             If Requesting Party initiates the Access Terminal installation
                  and the Requesting Party has not activated at least one pair
                  on the Access Terminal installed pursuant to Requesting
                  Party's request for an Access Terminal within 6 months of
                  installation of the Access Terminal, Provisioning Party will
                  bill Requesting Party a non-recurring charge equal to the
                  actual cost of provisioning the Access Terminal.

7.4.9             If Provisioning Party determines that Requesting Party is
                  using the UNTW pairs without reporting such usage to
                  BellSouth, the following charges shall apply in addition to
                  any fines which may be established by state commissions and
                  any other remedies at law or in equity available to the
                  Provisioning Party:

7.4.10            If Requesting Party issued a LSR to disconnect an end-user
                  from BellSouth in order to use a UNTW pair, Requesting Party
                  will be billed for the use of the pair back to the disconnect
                  order date.

7.4.11            If Requesting Party activated a UNTW pair on which
                  Provisioning Party was not previously providing service,
                  Requesting Party will be billed for the use of that pair back
                  to the date the end-user began receiving service using that
                  pair. Upon request, Requesting Party will provide copies of
                  its billing record to substantiate such date. If Requesting
                  Party fails to provide such records, then Provisioning Party
                  will bill the Requesting Party back to the date of the Access
                  Terminal installation.

8.1               Unbundled Network Element Combinations shall include: 1)
                  Enhanced Extended Links (EELs) 2) UNE Loops/Special Access
                  Combinations 3) Loop/Port Combinations and 4) Transport
                  Combinations.

8.2               For purposes of this Section, references to "Currently
                  Combined" network elements shall mean that such network
                  elements are in fact already combined by BellSouth in the
                  BellSouth network to provide service to a particular end user
                  at a particular location.

8.3               EELS

8.3.1             Where facilities permit and where necessary to comply with an
                  effective FCC and/or State Commission order, or as otherwise
                  mutually agreed by the Parties, BellSouth shall offer access
                  to loop and transport combinations, also known as the Enhanced
                  Extended Link ("EEL") as defined in Section 8.3.2 below.

8.3.2             Subject to Section 8.3.3 below, BellSouth will provide access
                  to the EEL in the combinations set forth in Section 8.3.4
                  following. This offering is intended to provide connectivity
                  from an end user's location through that end user's SWC to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's POP serving wire center. The channels on the
                  circuit sufficient to meet the local usage options described
                  in Section 8.3.5 below, must be connected to ITC/\DeltaCom's
                  switch for the purpose of provisioning telephone exchange
                  service to ITC/\DeltaCom's end-user customers. The EEL will be
                  connected to ITC/\DeltaCom's facilities in ITC/\DeltaCom's
                  collocation space at the POP SWC, or ITC/\DeltaCom may
                  purchase BellSouth's access facilities between ITC/\DeltaCom's
                  POP and ITC/\DeltaCom's collocation space at the POP SWC.

8.3.3             BellSouth shall provide EEL combinations to ITC/\DeltaCom in
                  Georgia regardless of whether or not such EELs are Currently
                  Combined. In all other states, BellSouth shall make available
                  to ITC/\DeltaCom those EEL combinations described in Section
                  8.3.4 below only to the extent such combinations are Currently
                  Combined. Furthermore, BellSouth will make available EEL
                  combinations to ITC/\DeltaCom in density Zone 1, as defined in
                  47 C.F.R. 69.123 as of January 1, 1999, in the Atlanta, GA;
                  Miami, FL; Orlando, FL; Ft. Lauderdale, FL;
                  Charlotte-Gastonia-Rock Hill, NC; Greensboro-Winston
                  Salem-High Point, NC; Nashville, TN; and New Orleans, LA, MSAs
                  regardless of whether or not such EELs are Currently Combined.
                  Except as stated above, EELs will be provided to ITC/\DeltaCom
                  only to the extent such network elements are Currently
                  Combined.

8.3.5             SPECIAL ACCESS SERVICE CONVERSIONS

8.3.5.1           ITC/\DeltaCom may not convert special access services to
                  combinations of loop and transport network elements, whether
                  or not ITC/\DeltaCom self-provides its entrance facilities (or
                  obtains entrance facilities from a third party), unless
                  ITC/\DeltaCom uses the combination to provide a significant
                  amount of local exchange service, in addition to exchange
                  access service, to a particular customer. To the extent
                  ITC/\DeltaCom requests to convert any special access services
                  to combinations of loop and transport network elements at UNE
                  prices, ITC/\DeltaCom shall provide to BellSouth a letter
                  certifying that ITC/\DeltaCom is providing a significant
                  amount of local exchange service (as described in this
                  Section) over such combinations. The certification letter
                  shall also indicate under what local usage option
                  ITC/\DeltaCom seeks to qualify for conversion of special
                  access circuits. ITC/\DeltaCom shall be deemed to be providing
                  a significant amount of local exchange service over such
                  combinations if one of the following options is met:

8.3.5.1.1         ITC/\DeltaCom certifies that it is the exclusive provider of
                  an end user's local exchange service. The loop-transport
                  combinations must terminate at ITC/\DeltaCom's collocation
                  arrangement in at least one BellSouth central office. This
                  option does not allow loop-transport combinations to be
                  connected to
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 21

                  BellSouth's tariffed services. Under this option,
                  ITC/\DeltaCom is the end user's only local service provider,
                  and thus, is providing more than a significant amount of local
                  exchange service. ITC/\DeltaCom can then use the loop-
                  transport combinations that serve the end user to carry any
                  type of traffic, including using them to carry 100 percent
                  interstate access traffic; or

8.3.5.1.2         ITC/\DeltaCom certifies that it provides local exchange and
                  exchange access service to the end user customer's premises
                  and handles at least one third of the end user customer's
                  local traffic measured as a percent of total end user customer
                  local dialtone lines; and for DS1 circuits and above, at least
                  50 percent of the activated channels on the loop portion of
                  the loop-transport combination have at least 5 percent local
                  voice traffic individually, and the entire loop facility has
                  at least 10 percent local voice traffic. When a loop-transport
                  combination includes multiplexing, each of the individual DS1
                  circuits must meet this criteria. The loop-transport
                  combination must terminate at ITC/\DeltaCom's collocation
                  arrangement in at least one BellSouth central office. This
                  option does not allow loop-transport combinations to be
                  connected to BellSouth tariffed services; or

8.3.5.1.3         ITC/\DeltaCom certifies that at least 50 percent of the
                  activated channels on a circuit are used to provide
                  originating and terminating local dial-tone service and at
                  least 50 percent of the traffic on each of these local
                  dial-tone channels is local voice traffic, and that the entire
                  loop facility has at least 33 percent local voice traffic.
                  When a loop-transport combination includes multiplexing, each
                  of the individual DS1 circuits must meet this criteria. This
                  option does not allow loop-transport combinations to be
                  connected to BellSouth's tariffed services. Under this option,
                  collocation is not required. ITC/\DeltaCom does not need to
                  provide a defined portion of the end user's local service, but
                  the active channels on any loop-transport combination, and the
                  entire facility, must carry the amount of local exchange
                  traffic specified in this option.

8.3.5.2           In addition, there may be extraordinary circumstances where
                  ITC/\DeltaCom is providing a significant amount of local
                  exchange service, but does not qualify under any of the three
                  options set forth in Section 8.3.5.1.1, 8.3.5.1.2, 8.3.5.1.3.
                  In such case, ITC/\DeltaCom may petition the FCC for a waiver
                  of the local usage options set forth in the June 2, 2000
                  Order. If a waiver is granted, the Parties shall amend this
                  Agreement within 45 days of ITC/\DeltaCom's request to the
                  extent necessary to incorporate the terms of such waiver.

8.3.5.3           BellSouth may audit ITC/\DeltaCom records to the extent
                  reasonably necessary in order to verify the type of traffic
                  being transmitted over combinations of loop and transport
                  network elements. The audit shall be conducted by a third
                  party independent auditor, and ITC/\DeltaCom shall be given
                  thirty days written notice of scheduled audit. Such audit
                  shall occur no more than one time in a calendar year, unless
                  results of an audit find noncompliance with the significant
                  amount of local exchange service requirement. In the event of
                  noncompliance, ITC/\DeltaCom shall reimburse BellSouth for the
                  cost of the audit. If, based on its
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 22

                  audits, BellSouth concludes that ITC/\DeltaCom is not
                  providing a significant amount of local exchange traffic over
                  the combinations of loop and transport network elements,
                  BellSouth may file a complaint with the appropriate
                  Commission, pursuant to the dispute resolution process as set
                  forth in the Interconnection Agreement. In the event that
                  BellSouth prevails, BellSouth may convert such combinations of
                  loop and transport network elements to special access services
                  and may seek appropriate retroactive reimbursement from
                  ITC/\DeltaCom.

8.3.5.4           ITC/\DeltaCom may convert special access circuits to
                  combinations of loop and transport UNEs pursuant to the terms
                  of this Section and subject to the termination provisions in
                  the applicable special access tariffs, if any.

8.5.3.1           The non-recurring and recurring rates for UNE/Special Access
                  Combinations will be the sum of the unbundled loop rates as
                  set forth in Attachment 11 and the interoffice transport rates
                  and multiplexing rates as set forth in the Access Services
                  Tariff.

8.6               PORT/LOOP COMBINATIONS

8.6.1             At ITC/\DeltaCom's request, BellSouth shall provide access to
                  combinations of port and loop network elements, as set forth
                  in Section 8.6.3 below, that are Currently Combined in

9.1.3             LOCAL CIRCUIT SWITCHING CAPABILITY, INCLUDING TANDEM SWITCHING
                  CAPABILITY

9.1.3.1           DEFINITION

                  Local Circuit Switching Capability is defined as: (A)
                  line-side facilities, which include, but are not limited to,
                  the connection between a loop termination at a main
                  distribution frame and a switch line card; (B) trunk-side
                  facilities, which include, but are not limited to, the
                  connection between trunk termination at a trunk-side
                  cross-connect panel and a switch trunk card; and (C) All
                  features, functions, and capabilities of the switch, which
                  include, but are not limited to: (1) the basic switching
                  function of connecting lines to lines, line to trunks, trunks
                  to lines, and trunks to trunks, as well as the same basic
                  capabilities made available to BellSouth's customers, such as
                  a telephone number, white page listings, and dial tone; and
                  (2) all other features that the switch is capable of
                  providing, including but not limited to customer calling,
                  customer local area signaling service features, and Centrex,
                  as well as any technically feasible customized routing
                  functions provided by the switch; (D) switching provided by
                  remote switching modules.

9.1.3.1.1         Notwithstanding BellSouth's general duty to unbundle local
                  circuit switching, BellSouth shall not be required to unbundle
                  local circuit switching for ITC/\DeltaCom when ITC/\DeltaCom
                  serves end-users with four (4) or more voice-grade (DS-0)
                  equivalents or lines in locations served by BellSouth's local
                  circuit switches, which are in the following MSAs: Atlanta,
                  GA; Miami, FL; Orlando, FL; Ft. Lauderdale, FL;
                  Charlotte-Gastonia-Rock Hill, NC; Greensboro-Winston
                  Salem-High Point, NC; Nashville, TN; and New Orleans, LA, and
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 27

                  BellSouth has provided non-discriminatory cost based access to
                  the Enhanced Extended Link (EEL) throughout Density Zone 1 as
                  determined by NECA Tariff No. 4 as in effect on January 1,
                  1999.

9.1.3.2           In the event that ITC/\DeltaCom orders local circuit switching
                  for a single end user account name at a single physical end
                  user location with four (4) or more two (2) wire voice-grade
                  loops from a BellSouth central office listed in Attachment 11,
                  BellSouth's sole recourse shall be to charge ITC/\DeltaCom the
                  market based rate in Attachment 11 for use of the local
                  circuit switching functionality for the affected facilities.

9.1.3.3           A featureless port is one that has a line port, switching
                  facilities, and an interoffice port. A featured port is a port
                  that includes all features then capable or a number of then
                  capable features specifically requested by ITC/\DeltaCom. Any
                  features that are not currently then capable but are
                  technically feasible through the switch can be requested
                  through the BFR process.

9.1.3.4           BellSouth will provide to ITC/\DeltaCom customized routing of
                  calls: (i) to a requested directory assistance services
                  platform; (ii) to an operator services platform pursuant to
                  Section 12 of Attachment 2; (iii) for ITC/\DeltaCom's PIC'ed
                  toll traffic in a two (2) PIC environment to an alternative
                  OS/DA platform designated by ITC/\DeltaCom. ITC/\DeltaCom
                  customers may use the same dialing arrangements as BellSouth
                  customers.

9.1.3.5           Remote Switching Module functionality is included in Switching
                  Capability. The switching capabilities used will be based on
                  the line side features they support.

9.1.3.6           Switching Capability will also be capable of routing local,
                  intraLATA, interLATA, and calls to international customer's
                  preferred carrier; call features (e.g. call forwarding) and
                  Centrex capabilities.

9.1.3.7           Where required to do so in order to comply with an effective
                  Commission order, BellSouth will provide to ITC/\DeltaCom
                  purchasing local BellSouth switching and reselling BellSouth
                  local exchange service under Attachment 1, selective routing
                  of calls to a requested directory assistance services platform
                  or operator services platform. ITC/\DeltaCom customers may use
                  the same dialing arrangements as BellSouth customers, but
                  obtain a ITC/\DeltaCom branded service.

10.6.1            DEFINITION
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 36

10.6.2            Dark Fiber is optical transmission facilities without attached
                  multiplexing, aggregation or other electronics that connects
                  two points within BellSouth's network. Dark Fiber is unused
                  strands of optical fiber. It may be strands of optical fiber
                  existing in aerial or underground structure. No line
                  terminating elements terminated to such strands to
                  operationalize its transmission capabilities will be
                  available.

10.6.3            REQUIREMENTS

10.6.3.1          BellSouth shall make available Dark Fiber where it exists in
                  BellSouth's network and where, as a result of future building
                  or deployment, it becomes available. If BellSouth has plans to
                  use the fiber within a two-year period, there is no
                  requirement to provide said fiber to ITC/\DeltaCom.

10.6.3.2          If the requested dark fiber has any lightwave repeater
                  equipment interspliced to it, BellSouth will remove such
                  equipment at ITC/\DeltaCom's request subject to time and
                  materials charges.

10.6.3.3          ITC/\DeltaCom may test the quality of the Dark Fiber to
                  confirm its usability and performance specifications.

10.6.3.4          BellSouth shall use its best efforts to provide to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom information regarding the location, availability
                  and performance of Dark Fiber within ten (10) business days
                  for a records based answer and twenty (20) business days for a
                  field based answer, after receiving a request from
                  ITC/\DeltaCom ("Request"). Within such time period, BellSouth
                  shall send written confirmation of availability of the Dark
                  Fiber ("Confirmation"). From the time of the Request to
                  forty-five (45) days after Confirmation, BellSouth shall hold
                  such requested Dark Fiber for ITC/\DeltaCom's use and may not
                  allow any other party to use such media, including BellSouth.

10.6.3.5          BellSouth shall use best efforts to make Dark Fiber available
                  to ITC/\DeltaCom within thirty (30) business days after it
                  receives written confirmation from ITC/\DeltaCom that the Dark
                  Fiber previously deemed available by BellSouth is wanted for
                  use by ITC/\DeltaCom. This includes identification of
                  appropriate connection points (e.g., Light Guide
                  Interconnection (LGX) or splice points) to enable
                  ITC/\DeltaCom to connect or splice ITC/\DeltaCom provided
                  transmission media (e.g., optical fiber) or equipment to the
                  Dark Fiber.

10.6.3.6          Dark Fiber shall meet the manufacturer's design
                  specifications.

10.6.3.7          ITC/\DeltaCom may splice and test Dark Fiber obtained from
                  BellSouth using ITC/\DeltaCom or ITC/\DeltaCom designated
                  personnel. BellSouth shall provide appropriate interfaces to
                  allow splicing and testing of Dark Fiber. BellSouth shall
                  provide an excess cable length of 25 feet minimum (for fiber
                  in underground conduit) to allow the uncoiled fiber to reach
                  from the manhole to a splicing van.

                  Operator Systems is the Network Element that provides operator
                  and automated call handling and billing, special services,
                  customer telephone listings and optional call completion
                  services. The Operator Systems, Network Element provides two
                  types of functions: Operator Service functions and Directory
                  Assistance Service functions, each of which are described in
                  detail below.

12.2              OPERATOR SERVICE

12.2.1            DEFINITION

                  Operator Service provides: (1) operator handling for call
                  completion (for example, collect, third number billing, and
                  calling card calls), (2) operator or automated assistance for
                  billing after the customer has dialed the called number (for
                  example, calling card calls); and (3) special services
                  including but not limited to Busy Line Verification and
                  Emergency Line Interrupt (ELI), Emergency Agency Call,
                  Operator-assisted Directory Assistance, and Rate Quotes.

                  BellSouth will offer to ITC/\DeltaCom Operator Call Processing
                  Access Service BLV/BLVI. Busy Line Verification ("BLV") shall
                  be performed when one Party's Customer requests assistance
                  from the operator bureau of the other Party to determine if
                  the called line is in use. However, the operator bureau will
                  not complete the call for the Customer initiating the BLV
                  inquiry. Only one BLV attempt will be made per Customer
                  operator bureau call, and a charge shall apply whether or not
                  the called party releases the line.

                  Busy Line Verification Interrupt ("BLVI") shall be performed
                  when one Party's Customer requests the operator bureau of the
                  other Party to interrupt a telephone call in progress after
                  BLV has occurred. The operator bureau will interrupt the busy
                  line
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 40

                  and inform the called party, that there is a call waiting. The
                  operator bureau will only interrupt the call and will not
                  complete the telephone call of the End User initiating the
                  BLVI request. The operator bureau will make only one BLVI
                  attempt per telephone call and the applicable charge applies
                  whether or not the called party releases the line. Each
                  Party's operator bureau shall accept BLV and BLVI inquiries
                  from the operator bureau of the other Party in order to allow
                  transparent provision of BLV/BLVI Traffic between the Parties'
                  networks.

                  Each Party shall route BLV/BLVI traffic inquiries over
                  separate direct trunks (and not the Local/IntraLATA Trunks)
                  established between the Parties' respective operator bureaus.
                  ITC/\DeltaCom will route BLV and BLVI traffic to the BellSouth
                  access tandem. BellSouth will route BLV and BLVI traffic to
                  the ITC/\DeltaCom access tandem. Each Party shall compensate
                  the other Party for BLV/BLVI Traffic as set forth in
                  ATTACHMENT 11 (Pricing Schedule) to the Agreement.

                  intraoffice diversity of facilities and equipment, such that:

13.2.5.1          No single failure of facilities or equipment causes the
                  failure of both links in an A-link layer (i.e., the links
                  should be provided on a minimum of two separate physical paths
                  end-to-end); and

13.2.5.2          No two concurrent failures of facilities or equipment shall
                  cause the failure of all four links in a B-link layer (i.e.,
                  the links should be provided on a minimum of three separate
                  physical paths end-to-end).

                  functions of all other Network Elements connected to BellSouth
                  SS7 network. This explicitly includes the use of BellSouth SS7
                  network to convey messages which neither originate nor
                  terminate at a signaling end point directly connected to
                  BellSouth SS7 network (i.e., transient messages). When
                  BellSouth SS7 network is used to convey transient messages,
                  there shall be no alteration of the Integrated Services
                  Digital Network User Part (ISDNUP) or Transaction Capabilities
                  Application Part (TCAP) user data that constitutes the content
                  of the message.

14.2.3            If a BellSouth tandem switch routes calling traffic, based on
                  dialed or translated digits, on SS7 trunks between an
                  ITC/\DeltaCom local switch and third party local switch,
                  BellSouth SS7 network shall convey the TCAP messages that are
                  necessary to provide Call Management features (Automatic
                  Callback, Automatic Recall, and Screening List Editing)
                  between ITC/\DeltaCom local STPs and the STPs that provide
                  connectivity with the third party local switch, even if the
                  third party local switch is not directly connected to
                  BellSouth STPs.

14.2.4            STPs shall provide all functions of the MTP as defined in
                  Bellcore ANSI Interconnection Requirements. This includes:

14.2.4.1          Signaling Data Link functions, as defined in Bellcore ANSI
                  Interconnection Requirements,

14.2.4.2          Signaling Link functions, as defined in Bellcore ANSI
                  Interconnection Requirements, and

14.2.4.3          Signaling Network Management functions, as defined in Bellcore
                  ANSI Interconnection Requirements.

14.2.5            STPs shall provide all functions of the SCCP necessary for
                  Class 0 (basic connectionless) service, as defined in Bellcore
                  ANSI Interconnection

                                                                         PAGE 48

                  Requirements. In particular, this includes Global Title
                  Translation (GTT) and SCCP Management procedures, as specified
                  in T1.112.4. In cases where the destination signaling point is
                  a ITC/\DeltaCom or third party local or tandem switching
                  system directly connected to BellSouth SS7 network, BellSouth
                  shall perform final GTT of messages to the destination and
                  SCCP Subsystem Management of the destination. In all other
                  cases, BellSouth shall perform intermediate GTT of messages to
                  a gateway pair of STPs in an SS7 network connected with
                  BellSouth SS7 network, and shall not perform SCCP Subsystem
                  Management of the destination. If BellSouth performs final GTT
                  to a ITC/\DeltaCom database, then ITC/\DeltaCom agrees to
                  provide BellSouth with the Destination Point Code for the
                  ITC/\DeltaCom database.

14.2.6            STPs shall provide on a non-discriminatory basis all functions
                  of the OMAP commonly provided by STPs, as specified in the
                  reference in Section 12.4.5 of this Attachment. All OMAP
                  functions will be on a "where available" basis and can
                  include:

14.2.6.1          MTP Routing Verification Test (MRVT) and

14.2.6.2          SCCP Routing Verification Test (SRVT).

14.2.7            In cases where the destination signaling point is a BellSouth
                  local or tandem switching system or database, or is an
                  ITC/\DeltaCom or third party local or tandem switching system
                  directly connected to the BellSouth SS7 network, STPs shall
                  perform MRVT and SRVT to the destination signaling point. In
                  all other cases, STPs shall perform MRVT and SRVT to a gateway
                  pair of STPs in an SS7 network connected with the BellSouth
                  SS7 network. This requirement shall be superseded by the
                  specifications for Internetwork MRVT and SRVT if and when
                  these become approved ANSI standards and available
                  capabilities of BellSouth STPs, and if mutually agreed upon by
                  ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth.

14.2.8            STPs shall be on parity with BellSouth.

14.2.9            SS7 ADVANCED INTELLIGENT NETWORK (AIN) ACCESS

14.2.9.1          When technically feasible and upon request by ITC/\DeltaCom,
                  SS7 Access shall be made available in association with
                  unbundled switching. SS7 AIN Access is the provisioning of AIN
                  0.1 triggers in an equipped BellSouth local switch and
                  interconnection of the BellSouth SS7 network with the
                  ITC/\DeltaCom SS7 network to exchange TCAP queries and
                  responses with an ITC/\DeltaCom SCP.

14.2.9.2          SS7 AIN Access shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom SCP access to
                  BellSouth local switch in association with unbundled switching
                  via interconnection of BellSouth SS7 and ITC/\DeltaCom SS7
                  Networks. BellSouth shall offer SS7 access through its STPs.
                  If BellSouth requires a mediation device on any part of its
                  network specific to this form of access, BellSouth must route
                  its messages in the same

                  manner. The interconnection arrangement shall result in the
                  BellSouth local switch recognizing the ITC/\DeltaCom SCP as at
                  least at parity with BellSouth's SCP's in terms of interfaces,
                  performance and capabilities.

14.3              INTERFACE REQUIREMENTS

14.3.1            BellSouth shall provide the following STPs options to connect
                  ITC/\DeltaCom or ITC/\DeltaCom-designated local switching
                  systems or STPs to BellSouth SS7 network:

14.3.1.1          An A-link interface from ITC/\DeltaCom local switching
                  systems; and,

14.3.1.2          A B-link interface from ITC/\DeltaCom local STPs.

14.3.2            Each type of interface shall be provided by one or more sets
                  (layers) of signaling links.

14.3.3            The Signaling Point of Interconnection (SPOI) for each link
                  shall be located at a cross-connect element, such as a DSX-1,
                  in the Central Office (CO) where BellSouth STP is located.
                  There shall be a DS1 or higher rate transport interface at
                  each of the SPOIs. Each signaling link shall appear as a DS0
                  channel within the DS1 or higher rate interface. BellSouth
                  shall offer higher rate DS1 signaling for interconnecting
                  ITC/\DeltaCom local switching systems or STPs with BellSouth
                  STPs as soon as these become approved ANSI standards and
                  available capabilities of BellSouth STPs. BellSouth and
                  ITC/\DeltaCom will work jointly to establish mutually
                  acceptable SPOIs.

14.3.4            BellSouth CO shall provide intraoffice diversity between the
                  SPOIs and BellSouth STPs, so that no single failure of
                  intraoffice facilities or equipment shall cause the failure of
                  both B-links in a layer connecting to a BellSouth STP.
                  BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom will work jointly to establish
                  mutually acceptable SPOIs.

14.3.5            BellSouth shall provide MTP and SCCP protocol interfaces that
                  shall conform to all sections relevant to the MTP or SCCP in

15.1              DEFINITION

15.1.1            Databases provide the functionality for storage of, access to,
                  and manipulation of information required to offer a particular
                  service and/or capability. Databases include, but are not
                  limited to: Local Number Portability, Toll Free Number
                  Database, Automatic Location Identification/Data Management
                  System, access to Service Creation Environment and Service
                  Management System (SCE/SMS) application databases and
                  Directory Assistance.

15.1.2            A Service Control Point (SCP) is a specific type of Database
                  functionality deployed in a Signaling System 7 (SS7) network
                  that executes service application logic in response to SS7
                  queries sent to it by a switching system also connected to the
                  SS7 network. Service Management Systems provide operational
                  interfaces to allow for provisioning, administration and
                  maintenance of subscriber data and service application data
                  stored in SCPs.

15.2              TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS FOR SCPS/DATABASES

                  Requirements for SCPs/Databases within this section address
                  storage of information, access to information (e.g. signaling
                  protocols, response times), and administration of information
                  (e.g., provisioning, administration, and maintenance). All
                  SCPs/Databases shall be provided to ITC/\DeltaCom in
                  accordance with the following requirements.

15.3              LOCAL NUMBER PORTABILITY DATABASE

15.3.1            DEFINITION

                  The Permanent Number Portability (PNP) database supplies
                  routing numbers for calls involving numbers that have been
                  ported from one local service provider to another. PNP is
                  currently being worked in industry forums. The results of
                  these forums will dictate the industry direction of PNP.
                  BellSouth agrees to provide access to the PNP database at
                  rates, terms and conditions as set forth by BellSouth and in
                  accordance with an effective FCC or Commission directive.

15.4              LINE INFORMATION DATABASE (LIDB)

15.4.1            DEFINITION

                  The Line Information Database (LIDB) is a transaction-oriented
                  database accessible through Common Channel Signaling (CCS)
                  networks. It contains records associated with customer Line
                  Numbers and Special Billing Numbers. LIDB accepts queries from
                  other Network Elements and provides appropriate responses. The
                  query originator need not be the owner of LIDB data. LIDB
                  queries include functions such as screening billed numbers
                  that provides the ability to accept Collect or Third Number
                  Billing calls and validation of Telephone Line Number based
                  non-proprietary calling cards. The interface for the LIDB
                  functionality is the interface between BellSouth CCS network
                  and other CCS networks. LIDB also interfaces to administrative
                  systems.

15.4.1.1          BellSouth will store in its LIDB only records relating to
                  service in the BellSouth region.

15.4.1.2          Prior to the availability of a long-term solution for LNP,
                  BellSouth shall enable ITC/\DeltaCom to store in BellSouth's
                  LIDB any customer, Line Number or Special Billing Number
                  record, whether ported or not, for which the ITC/\DeltaCom
                  dedicated NPA-NXX or RAO-0/1XX Group is supported by that
                  LIDB.

15.4.1.4          Subsequent to the availability of a long-term solution for
                  LNP, BellSouth shall enable ITC/\DeltaCom to store in
                  BellSouth's LIDB any customer, Line Number or Special Billing
                  Number record, whether ported or not, regardless of the
                  number's dedicated NPA-NXX or RAO [NXX]-0/1XX.

15.4.2            TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

                  BellSouth will offer to ITC/\DeltaCom any additional
                  capabilities that are developed for LIDB during the life of
                  this Agreement.

                                                                         PAGE 53

15.4.2.2          Within two (2) weeks after a request by ITC/\DeltaCom,
                  BellSouth shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom with a list of the
                  customer data items which ITC/\DeltaCom would have to provide
                  in order to support each required LIDB function. The list
                  shall indicate which data items are essential to LIDB
                  function, and which are required only to support certain
                  services. For each data item, the list shall show the data
                  formats, the acceptable values of the data item and the
                  meaning of those values.

15.4.2.3          BellSouth shall provide LIDB systems for which operating
                  deficiencies that would result in calls being blocked, shall
                  not exceed 30 minutes per year.

15.4.2.4          BellSouth shall provide LIDB systems for which operating
                  deficiencies that would not result in calls being blocked
                  shall not exceed 12 hours per year.

15.4.2.5          BellSouth shall provide LIDB systems for which the LIDB
                  function shall be in overload no more than 12 hours per year.

15.4.2.6          All additions, updates and deletions of ITC/\DeltaCom data to
                  the LIDB shall be solely at the direction of ITC/\DeltaCom.
                  Such direction from ITC/\DeltaCom will not be required where
                  the addition, update or deletion is necessary to perform
                  standard fraud control measures (e.g., calling card
                  auto-deactivation).

15.4.2.7          BellSouth shall provide priority updates to LIDB for
                  ITC/\DeltaCom data upon ITC/\DeltaCom's request (e.g., to
                  support fraud detection), via password-protected telephone
                  card, facsimile, or electronic mail within one hour of notice
                  from the established BellSouth contact.

15.4.2.8          BellSouth shall provide LIDB systems such that no more than
                  0.01% of ITC/\DeltaCom customer records will be missing from
                  LIDB, as measured by ITC/\DeltaCom audits. BellSouth will
                  audit ITC/\DeltaCom records in LIDB against DBAS to identify
                  record mismatches and provide this data to a designated
                  ITC/\DeltaCom contact person to resolve the status of the
                  records and BellSouth will update system appropriately.
                  BellSouth will refer record of mis-matches to ITC/\DeltaCom
                  within one business day of audit. Once reconciled records are
                  received back from ITC/\DeltaCom, BellSouth will update LIDB
                  the same business day if less than 500 records are received
                  before 1:00PM Central Time. If more than 500 records are
                  received, BellSouth will contact ITC/\DeltaCom to negotiate a
                  time frame for the updates, not to exceed three business days.

15.4.2.9          BellSouth shall perform backup and recovery of all of
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's data in LIDB including sending to LIDB all
                  changes made since the date of the most recent backup copy, in
                  at least the same time frame BellSouth performs backup and
                  recovery of BellSouth data in LIDB for itself. Currently,
                  BellSouth performs backups of the LIDB for itself on a weekly
                  basis and when a new software release is scheduled, a backup
                  is performed prior to loading the new release.

                  established administrative and fraud control personnel, or by
                  any other party that is not authorized by ITC/\DeltaCom in
                  writing.

15.4.2.12         BellSouth shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom performance of the LIDB
                  Data Screening function, which allows a LIDB to completely or
                  partially deny specific query originators access to LIDB data
                  owned by specific data owners, for Customer Data that is part
                  of an NPA-NXX or RAO-0/1XX wholly or partially owned by

                  Service database

15.5.2            The BellSouth SWA 8XX Toll Free Dialing Ten Digit Screening
                  Service database (herein known as 8XX SCP) is a SCP that
                  contains customer record information and functionality to
                  provide call-handling instructions for 8XX calls. The 8XX SCP
                  IN software stores data downloaded from the national SMS and
                  provides the routing instructions in response to queries from
                  the SSP or tandem. The BellSouth SWA 8XX Toll Free Dialing Ten
                  Digit Screening Service (herein know as 8XX TFD), utilizes the
                  8XX SCP to provide identification and routing of the 8XX
                  calls, based on the ten digits dialed. 8XX TFD is provided
                  with or without POTS number delivery, dialing number delivery,
                  and other optional complex features as selected by
                  ITC/\DeltaCom. BellSouth shall provide 8XX TFD in accordance
                  with the following:

15.5.3            TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

15.5.4            BellSouth shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom with access to the 8XX
                  record information located in the 8XX SCP. The 8XX SCP
                  contains current records as received from the national SMS and
                  will provide for routing 8XX originating calls based on the
                  dialed ten digit 8XX number.

15.5.5            The 8XX SCP is designated to receive and respond to queries
                  using the American National Standard Specification of
                  Signaling System Seven (SS7) protocol. The 8XX SCP shall
                  determine the carrier identification based on all ten digits
                  of the dialed number and route calls to the carrier, POTS
                  number, dialing number and/or other optional feature selected
                  by ITC/\DeltaCom.

15.5.6            The SCP shall also provide, at ITC/\DeltaCom's option, such
                  additional feature as described in SR-TSV-002275 (BOC Notes on
                  BellSouth Networks, SR-TSV-002275, Issue 2, (Telcordia
                  (formerly BellCore), April 1994)) as are available to

15.5.7            Network Management;

15.5.8            Customer Sample Collection; and

15.5.9            Service Maintenance.

15.6              Automatic Location Identification/Data Management System
                  (ALI/DMS)

                  The ALI/DMS Database contains customer information (including
                  name, address, telephone information, and sometimes special
                  information from the local service provider or customer) used
                  to determine to which Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) to
                  route the call. The ALI/DMS database is used to provide more
                  routing flexibility for E911 calls than Basic 911. BellSouth
                  shall provide the Emergency Services Database in accordance

15.6.1            TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 56

15.6.1.1          BellSouth shall offer ITC/\DeltaCom a data link to the ALI/DMS
                  database or permit ITC/\DeltaCom to provide its own data link
                  to the ALI/DMS database. BellSouth shall provide error reports
                  from the ALI/DMS database to ITC/\DeltaCom immediately after
                  ITC/\DeltaCom inputs information into the ALI/DMS database.
                  Alternately, ITC/\DeltaCom may utilize BellSouth, to enter
                  customer information into the data base on a demand basis, and
                  validate customer information on a demand basis.

15.6.1.2          The ALI/DMS database shall contain the following customer
                  information:

15.6.1.2.1        Name;

15.6.1.2.2        Address;

15.6.1.2.3        Telephone number; and

15.6.1.2.4        Other information as appropriate (e.g., whether a customer is
                  blind or deaf or has another disability).

15.6.1.3          When the BellSouth is responsible for administering the
                  ALI/DMS database in its entirety, ported number NXXs entries
                  for the ported numbers should be maintained unless
                  ITC/\DeltaCom requests otherwise and shall be updated if
                  ITC/\DeltaCom requests, provided ITC/\DeltaCom supplies
                  BellSouth with the updates.

15.6.1.4          When Remote Call Forwarding (RCF) is used to provide number
                  portability to the local customer and a remark or other
                  appropriate field information is available in the database,
                  the shadow or "forwarded-to" number and an indication that the
                  number is ported shall be added to the customer record.

15.6.1.5          If BellSouth is responsible for configuring PSAP features (for
                  cases when the PSAP or BellSouth supports an ISDN interface)
                  it shall ensure that CLASS Automatic Recall (Call Return) is
                  not used to call back to the ported number. Although BellSouth
                  currently does not have ISDN interface, BellSouth agrees to
                  comply with this requirement once ISDN interfaces are in
                  place.

15.6.2            INTERFACE REQUIREMENTS

                  The interface between the E911 Switch or Tandem and the
                  ALI/DMS database for ITC/\DeltaCom customers shall meet
                  industry standards.

15.7              DIRECTORY ASSISTANCE DATABASE

                  BellSouth shall make its directory assistance database
                  available to ITC/\DeltaCom in order to allow ITC/\DeltaCom to
                  provide its customers with the same directory assistance
                  telecommunications services BellSouth provides to BellSouth
                  customers. BellSouth shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom with an
                  initial feed via magnetic tape and daily update initially via
                  magnetic tape and subsequently via an

                  ITC/\DeltaCom telephone numbers to the extent available in
                  BellSouth's database assigned to a customer. Privacy
                  indicators must be properly identified to assure the
                  non-published numbers are accurately identified.

15.8              CALLING NAME (CNAM) DATABASE SERVICE.

                  ITC/\DeltaCom may provide to its account manager a written
                  request to enter into a CNAM agreement with BellSouth. If
                  ITC/\DeltaCom is interested in requesting CNAM with volume and
                  term pricing, ITC/\DeltaCom must contact its account manager
                  and specifically request a CNAM volume and term agreement.

                  party service applications interact with AIN triggers
                  provisioned on a BellSouth SSP.

15.10.2           BellSouth's SCE/SMS AIN Access shall provide access to SCE
                  hardware, software, testing and technical support (e.g., help
                  desk, system administrator) resources available to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom. Scheduling procedures shall provide
                  ITC/\DeltaCom equivalent priority to these resources.

15.10.3           BellSouth SCP shall partition and protect ITC/\DeltaCom
                  service logic and data from unauthorized access, execution or
                  other types of compromise.

15.10.4           When ITC/\DeltaCom selects SCE/SMS AIN Access, BellSouth shall
                  provide training, documentation, and technical support to
                  enable ITC/\DeltaCom to use BellSouth's SCE/SMS AIN Access to
                  create and administer applications. Training, documentation,
                  and technical support will address use of SCE and SMS access
                  and administrative functions, but will not include support for
                  the creation of a specific service application.

15.10.5           When ITC/\DeltaCom selects SCE/SMS AIN Access, BellSouth shall
                  provide for a secure, controlled access environment in
                  association with its internal use of AIN components.
                  ITC/\DeltaCom access will be provided via remote data
                  connection (e.g., dial-in, ISDN).

15.10.6           When ITC/\DeltaCom selects SCE/SMS AIN Access, BellSouth shall
                  allow ITC/\DeltaCom to download data forms and/or tables to
                  BellSouth SCP via BellSouth SMS without intervention from
                  BellSouth (e.g., service customization and customer
                  subscription).

16.               PREORDERING LOOP MAKEUP (LMU)

16.1              DESCRIPTION OF SERVICE

16.1.1            BellSouth shall make available to ITC/\DeltaCom loop makeup
                  (LMU) data for BellSouth's network facilities. This section
                  addresses LMU as a preordering transaction, distinct from
                  ITC/\DeltaCom ordering any other service(s). Loop Makeup
                  Service Inquiries (LMUSI) for preordering loop makeup are
                  likewise unique from other preordering functions with
                  associated service inquiries (SI) as described in this
                  Agreement.

16.1.1.2          BellSouth will provide ITC/\DeltaCom with loop makeup
                  information consisting of the composition of the loop material
                  (copper/fiber); the existence, location and type of equipment
                  on the loop, including but not limited to digital loop carrier
                  or other remote concentration devises, feeder/distribution
                  interfaces, bridge taps, load coils, pair-gain devices; the
                  loop length; and the wire gauge. The LMUSI may be utilized by
                  ITC/\DeltaCom for the purpose of determining whether the loop
                  requested is capable of supporting DSL service or other
                  advanced data
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 59

                  services. The determination shall be made solely by
                  ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth shall not be liable in any way for
                  the performance of the advanced data services provisioned over
                  said loop.

16.1.1.3          BellSouth's LMU information is provided to ITC/\DeltaCom as it
                  exists either in BellSouth's databases or in its hard copy
                  facility records. BellSouth does not guarantee accuracy or
                  reliability of the LMU information provided.

16.1.1.4          Mechanized LMU is available for limited deployment to those
                  CLECs that have effective X-Digital Subscriber Line (xDSL)
                  Beta Test Agreements in place with BellSouth.

16.1.2            SUBMITTING LOOP MAKEUP SERVICE INQUIRIES

16.1.2.1          ITC/\DeltaCom will be able to obtain LMU information by
                  submitting a LMUSI mechanically or manually. MECHANIZED LMUSIs
                  should be submitted through BellSouth's Operational Support
                  Systems interfaces. After obtaining the resulting loop data
                  from the mechanized LMUSI process, if ITC/\DeltaCom determines
                  that it needs further loop data information in order to make a
                  determination of loop service capability, ITC/\DeltaCom may
                  initiate a separate manual SI for a separate nonrecurring
                  charge as set forth in Section 2.14.3.

16.1.2.2          MANUAL

16.1.2.3          LMUSIs shall be submitted on the preordering manual LMUSI form
                  by means of fax or electronic-mail to BellSouth's Complex
                  Resale Support Group (CRSG)/Account Team utilizing the
                  Preordering Loop Makeup Service Inquiry form. The standard
                  service interval for the return of a Loop Makeup Manual
                  Service Inquiry is seven business days which is the same as
                  BellSouth's own internal guidelines. This service interval is
                  distinct from the interval applied to the subsequent service
                  order. Manual LMUSIs are not subject to expedite requests.

16.2              LMUSI TYPES & ASSOCIATED CHARGES

                  ITC/\DeltaCom may request LMU information by submitting LMUSIs
                  in accordance with the rate elements in Attachment 11.

16.2.1            ITC/\DeltaCom will be assessed a nonrecurring charge for each
                  facility queried as specified in the table above. Rates for
                  all states are interim and subject to true-up pending approval
                  of final rates by the respective State Commissions. True-ups
                  will be retroactive to the effective date of this Agreement.

16.2.2            ITC/\DeltaCom may reserve facilities for up to four (4) days
                  in connection with a LMUSI. Reserved facilities for which
                  ITC/\DeltaCom does not plan to place a UNE local service
                  request (LSR) should be cancelled by ITC/\DeltaCom. Should
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 60

                  ITC/\DeltaCom wish to cancel a reservation on a spare
                  facility, the cancellation will require a facility reservation
                  number (RESID/FRN).

16.2.3            The reservation holding timeframe is a maximum of four days
                  from the time that BellSouth's LMU data is returned to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom for the facility queried. During this holding
                  time and prior to ITC/\DeltaCom's placing an LSR, the reserved
                  facilities are rendered unavailable to other customers,
                  whether for CLEC(s) or for BellSouth. Notwithstanding the
                  foregoing, BellSouth does not guarantee that a reservation
                  will assure ITC/\DeltaCom's ability to order the exact
                  facility reserved.

16.2.4            If ITC/\DeltaCom does not submit an LSR for a UNE service
                  order on a reserved facility within the four-day reservation
                  timeframe, the reservation of that spare facility will become
                  invalid and the facility will be released.

16.2.5            Charges for preordering LMUSI are separate from any charges
                  associated with ordering other services from BellSouth.

16.3              ORDERING OF OTHER UNE SERVICES

16.3.1            Whenever ITC/\DeltaCom has reserved a facility through
                  BellSouth's preordering LMU service, should ITC/\DeltaCom seek
                  to place a subsequent UNE LSR on a reserved facility,
                  ITC/\DeltaCom shall provide BellSouth the RESID/FRN of the
                  single spare facility on the appropriate UNE LSR.,
                  ITC/\DeltaCom will be billed the appropriate rate element for
                  the specific type UNE loop ordered by ITC/\DeltaCom as set
                  forth in this Attachment. ITC/\DeltaCom will not be billed any
                  additional Loop Makeup charges for the loop so ordered. Should
                  ITC/\DeltaCom choose to place a UNE LSR having previously
                  submitted a request for preordering LMU WITHOUT a reservation,
                  ITC/\DeltaCom will be billed the appropriate rate element for
                  the specific UNE loop ordered as well as additional Loop
                  Markup charges as set forth in this Attachment. Rates are
                  provided in the UNE Rate Exhibits for Attachment 11.

16.3.2            Where ITC/\DeltaCom submits an LSR to order facilities
                  reserved during the LMUSI process, BellSouth will use its best
                  efforts to assign to ITC/\DeltaCom the facility reserved as
                  indicated on the return of the LMU.

                  To the extent applicable, multi-facility reservations per
                  single RESID/FRN as provided with the mechanized LMUSI process
                  are less likely to result in the specific assignment requested
                  by ITC/\DeltaCom. For those occasions when BellSouth's
                  assignment system cannot assign the specific facility reserved
                  by ITC/\DeltaCom during the LMU pre-ordering transaction,
                  BellSouth will assign to ITC/\DeltaCom, subject to
                  availability, a facility that meets the BellSouth technical
                  standards of the BellSouth type loop as ordered by
                  ITC/\DeltaCom. If the ordered loop type is not available,
                  ITC/\DeltaCom may utilize the Unbundled
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 61

                  Loop Modification process or the Special Construction process,
                  as applicable, to obtain the loop type ordered.

                  BellSouth offers LMU information for the sole purpose of
                  allowing ITC/\DeltaCom to determine whether, in CLEC's
                  judgment, BellSouth's loops will support the specific services
                  that ITC/\DeltaCom wishes to provide over those loops.
                  ITC/\DeltaCom may choose to use equipment that it deems will
                  enable it to provide a certain type and level of service over
                  a particular BellSouth loop; however, such configurations may
                  not match BellSouth's or the industry's standards and
                  specifications for the intended type and level of service.
                  Accordingly, ITC/\DeltaCom shall be responsible for insuring
                  that the specific loop type (ADSL, HDSL, or otherwise) ordered
                  on the LSR matches the LMU of the facility requested.
                  ITC/\DeltaCom bears full responsibility for being
                  knowledgeable of BellSouth's technical standards and the
                  specifications of BellSouth's loops. ITC/\DeltaCom bears full
                  responsibility for making the appropriate ordering decisions
                  of matching BellSouth loops with ITC/\DeltaCom's equipment for
                  accomplishing ITC/\DeltaCom's end goal for the intended
                  service it wishes to provide its end-user(s). ITC/\DeltaCom is
                  fully responsible for any of its service configurations that
                  may differ from BellSouth's technical standard for the loop
                  type ordered.

17.               SS7 NETWORK INTERCONNECTION

17.1.1            DEFINITION

                  SS7 Network Interconnection is the interconnection of
                  ITC/\DeltaCom local Signaling Transfer Point Switches (STP)
                  and ITC/\DeltaCom local or tandem switching systems with
                  BellSouth STPs. This interconnection provides connectivity
                  that enables the exchange of SS7 messages among BellSouth
                  switching systems and databases (DBs), ITC/\DeltaCom local or
                  tandem switching systems, and other third-party switching
                  systems directly connected to the BellSouth SS7 network.

17.1.2            TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

17.1.2.1          SS7 Network Interconnection shall provide connectivity to all
                  components of the BellSouth SS7 network. These include:

17.1.2.1.1        BellSouth local or tandem switching systems;

17.1.2.1.2        BellSouth DBs; and

17.1.2.1.3        Other third-party local or tandem switching systems.

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 62

17.1.2.2          The connectivity provided by SS7 Network Interconnection shall
                  fully support the functions of BellSouth switching systems and
                  DBs and ITC/\DeltaCom or other third-party switching systems
                  with A-link access to the BellSouth SS7 network.

                  If traffic is routed based on dialed or translated digits
                  between an ITC/\DeltaCom local switching system and a
                  BellSouth or other third-party local switching system, either
                  directly or via a BellSouth tandem switching system, then it
                  is a requirement that the BellSouth SS7 network convey via SS7
                  Network Interconnection the TCAP messages that are necessary
                  to provide Call Management services (Automatic Callback,
                  Automatic Recall, and Screening List Editing) between the
                  ITC/\DeltaCom local STPs and BellSouth or other third-party
                  local switch.

17.1.2.3          When the capability to route messages based on Intermediate
                  Signaling Network Identifier (ISNI) is generally available on
                  BellSouth STPs, the BellSouth SS7 Network shall also convey
                  TCAP messages using SS7 Network Interconnection in similar
                  circumstances where the BellSouth switch routes traffic based
                  on a Carrier Identification Code (CIC).

17.1.2.4          SS7 Network Interconnection shall provide all functions of the
                  MTP as specified in ANSI T1.111. This includes:

17.1.2.4.3        Signaling Network Management functions, as specified in ANSI
                  T1.111.4.

17.1.2.5          SS7 Network Interconnection shall provide all functions of the
                  SCCP necessary for Class 0 (basic connectionless) service, as
                  specified in ANSI T1.112. In particular, this includes Global
                  Title Translation (GTT) and SCCP Management procedures, as
                  specified in T1.112.4. Where the destination signaling point
                  is a BellSouth switching system or DB, or is another
                  third-party local or tandem switching system directly
                  connected to the BellSouth SS7 network, SS7 Network
                  Interconnection shall include final GTT of messages to the
                  destination and SCCP Subsystem Management of the destination.
                  Where the destination signaling point is an ITC/\DeltaCom
                  local or tandem switching system, SS7 Network Interconnection
                  shall include intermediate GTT of messages to a gateway pair
                  of ITC/\DeltaCom local STPs, and shall not include SCCP
                  Subsystem Management of the destination.

17.1.2.6          SS7 Network Interconnection shall provide all functions of the
                  Integrated Services Digital Network User Part (ISDNUP), as

                                                                         PAGE 63

17.1.2.8          If and when Internetwork MTP Routing Verification Test (MRVT)
                  and SCCP Routing Verification Test (SRVT) become approved ANSI
                  standards and available capabilities of BellSouth STPs, SS7
                  Network Interconnection shall provide these functions of the
                  OMAP.

17.1.2.9          SS7 Network Interconnection shall be equal to or better than
                  the following performance requirements:

17.1.2.9.1        MTP Performance, as specified in ANSI T1.111.6;

17.1.3            INTERFACE REQUIREMENTS

17.1.3.1          BellSouth shall offer the following SS7 Network
                  Interconnection options to connect ITC/\DeltaCom or
                  ITC/\DeltaCom-designated local or tandem switching systems or
                  STPs to the BellSouth SS7 network:

17.1.3.1.1        A-link interface from ITC/\DeltaCom local or tandem switching
                  systems; and

17.1.3.1.2        B-link interface from ITC/\DeltaCom STPs.

17.1.3.2          The Signaling Point of Interconnection (SPOI) for each link
                  shall be located at a cross-connect element, such as a DSX-1,
                  in the Central Office (CO) where the BellSouth STP is located.
                  There shall be a DS1 or higher rate transport interface at
                  each of the SPOIs. Each signaling link shall appear as a DS0
                  channel within the DS1 or higher rate interface. BellSouth
                  shall offer higher rate DS1 signaling links for
                  interconnecting ITC/\DeltaCom local switching systems or STPs
                  with BellSouth STPs as soon as these become approved ANSI
                  standards and available capabilities of BellSouth STPs.
                  BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom will work jointly to establish
                  mutually acceptable SPOI.

17.1.3.3          BellSouth CO shall provide intraoffice diversity between the
                  SPOIs and the BellSouth STP, so that no single failure of

                  Basic 911 and E911 is an additional requirement that provides
                  a caller access to the applicable emergency service bureau by
                  dialing a 3-digit universal telephone number (911).

20.2              REQUIREMENTS

20.2.1            BASIC 911 SERVICE PROVISIONING.

                  For Basic 911 service, BellSouth will provide to ITC/\DeltaCom
                  a list consisting of each municipality that subscribes to
                  Basic 911 service. The list will also provide, if known, the
                  E911 conversion date for each municipality and, for network
                  routing purposes, a ten-digit directory number representing
                  the appropriate emergency answering position for each
                  municipality subscribing to 911. ITC/\DeltaCom will be
                  required to arrange to accept 911 calls from its end users in
                  municipalities that subscribe to Basic 911 service and
                  translate the 911 call to the appropriate 10-digit directory
                  number as stated on the list provided by BellSouth.
                  ITC/\DeltaCom will be required to route that call to BellSouth
                  at the appropriate tandem or end office. When a municipality
                  converts to E911 service, ITC/\DeltaCom will be required to
                  discontinue the Basic 911 procedures and being using E911
                  procedures.

20.2.2            E911 SERVICE PROVISIONING.

                  For E911 service, ITC/\DeltaCom will be required to install a
                  minimum of two dedicated trunks originating from the
                  ITC/\DeltaCom serving wire center and terminating to the
                  appropriate E911 tandem. The dedicated trunks shall be, at a
                  minimum, DS-0 level trunks configured either as a 2-wire
                  analog interface or as part of a digital (1.544 Mb/s)
                  interface. Either configuration shall use CAMA-type signaling
                  with multifrequency ("MF") pulsing that will deliver automatic
                  number identification ("ANI") with the voice portion of the
                  call. If the user interface is digital, MF pulses, as well as
                  other AC signals, shall be encoded per the u-255 Law
                  convention. ITC/\DeltaCom will be required to provide
                  BellSouth daily updates to the E911 database. ITC/\DeltaCom
                  will be required to forward 911 calls to the appropriate E911
                  tandem, along with ANI, based upon the current E911 end office
                  to tandem homing arrangement as provided by BellSouth. If the
                  E911 tandem trunks are not available, ITC/\DeltaCom will be
                  required to route the call to a designated 7-digit local
                  number residing in the appropriate Public Service Answering
                  Point ("PSAP"). This call will be transported over BellSouth's
                  interoffice network and will not carry the ANI of the calling
                  party. ITC/\DeltaCom shall be responsible for providing
                  BellSouth with complete and accurate data for submission to
                  the 911/E911 database for the purpose of providing 911/E911 to

                  In the event ITC/\DeltaCom provides a list of customers to be
                  denied and restored, rather than an LSR, each location on the
                  list will require a separate PON and, therefore will be billed
                  as one LSR per location.

                  ITC/\DeltaCom will incur an OSS charge for an accepted LSR
                  that is later canceled by ITC/\DeltaCom.

                  Note: Supplements or clarifications to a previously billed LSR
                  will not incur another OSS charge.

22.3.4            NETWORK ELEMENTS AND OTHER SERVICES MANUAL ADDITIVE

22.3.4.1          The Commissions in some states have ordered per-element manual

                              LOCAL INTERCONNECTION

1.0      SCOPE

         BellSouth shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom interconnection with BellSouth's
         network for the transmission and routing of Telephone Exchange Service
         traffic and Exchange Access traffic pursuant to Section 251 (c)(2) of
         the Act on the terms and conditions specified in this Attachment 3.

1.1      LOCAL TRAFFIC

         Local Traffic is as defined in Section 6 of this Attachment.

1.2      NETWORK INTERCONNECTION

         At each Party's option, Interconnection in each LATA may be
         accomplished at any technically feasible point within the Parties'
         networks, including without limitation the trunk side of any local
         switch; trunk interconnection points for any tandem switch; central
         office cross connect points; out-of-band signal transfer points; and
         the points of access to unbundled elements. Requests to BellSouth for
         interconnection at other points may be made through the Bona Fide
         Request/New Business Request process set out in General Terms and
         Conditions and Attachment 9. Interconnection may be established by the
         Parties via (i) Collocation as provided in Attachment 4 to the
         Agreement; (ii) establishment of a Fiber Meet as provided in Section
         1.3.3 hereof; or (iii) interconnection via purchase of facilities from
         either Party by the other Party.

1.2.1    ITC/\DeltaCom shall establish at least one Point of Presence and
         Interconnection Point with BellSouth per LATA for the delivery of
         ITC/\DeltaCom's originated local and intraLATA toll and transit
         traffic. ITC/\DeltaCom must establish an interconnection trunk group(s)
         to at least one BellSouth access tandem within the LATA for the
         delivery of ITC/\DeltaCom's originated local and intraLATA toll and
         transit traffic. ITC/\DeltaCom may establish additional trunk groups in
         such LATA pursuant to this Agreement. If ITC/\DeltaCom chooses to
         interconnect using a single trunk group within a LATA, the
         interconnection trunk group must be at a BellSouth Access Tandem.
         Furthermore, ITC/\DeltaCom must establish an interconnection trunk
         group(s) to all BellSouth access and local tandems where ITC/\DeltaCom
         NXXs are "homed." A "Homing" arrangement is defined by a "Final" Trunk
         Group between the BellSouth Tandem andITC/\DeltaCom End Office switch.
         A "Final" Trunk Group is the last choice telecommunications path
         between the Tandem and End Office switch. It is ITC/\DeltaCom's
         responsibility to enter its own NPA/NXX access and/or

         local tandem "homing" arrangements into the national Local Exchange
         Routing Guide (LERG).

1.2.2   In order for ITC/\DeltaCom to home its NPA/NXX(s) on a BellSouth Tandem,
        ITC/\DeltaCom's NPA/NXX(s) must be assigned to an Exchange Rate Center
        Area served by that BellSouth Tandem and as specified by BellSouth. The
        specified association between BellSouth Tandems and Exchange Rate Center
        Areas is defined in the Local Exchange Routing Guide (LERG). To the
        extent that as of the date hereof, existing arrangements do not comply
        with this section, the Parties will work cooperatively to transition
        existing arrangements to comply with this section.

1.2.3   The INTERCONNECTION POINT is the point at which the originating Party
        delivers its originated traffic to the terminating Party.
        Interconnection Point(s) are available at either Access Tandems, Local
        Tandems, or End Offices as described in this Attachment. ITC/\DeltaCom's
        requested Interconnection Point will be used for the receipt and
        delivery of transit traffic at BellSouth Access and Local Tandems.
        Interconnection Point(s) established at the BellSouth Local Tandem apply
        only to local, ISP-bound, and local originating and terminating transit
        traffic. Each Party is financially and operationally responsible for
        providing the network on its side of the Interconnection Point.

1.2.4   For the purposes of this Attachment , a POINT OF PRESENCE (POP) is the
        physical location (a structure where the environmental, power, air
        conditioning, etc. specifications for a Party's terminating equipment
        can be met) at which a Party establishes itself for obtaining access to
        the other Party's network. The POP is the physical location within which
        the Interconnection Point(s) occur.

1.2.5   For the purposes of this Attachment, the Interconnection Point is
        further defined as the physical telecommunications interface between
        BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom's interconnection functions. It establishes
        the technical interface and point of operational responsibility. The
        primary function is to serve as the terminus for the interconnection
        service. The Interconnection Point has the following main
        characteristics:

                  1.       It is a cross-connect point to allow connection,
                           disconnection, transfer or restoration of service.
                  2.       It is a point where BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom can
                           verify and maintain specific performance objectives.
                  3.       It is specified according to the interface offered in
                           the tariff or local interconnection agreement (for
                           example: for DS1 service the FCC # 1 tariff specifies
                           that the interface meets the technical specifications
                           detailed in Generic Requirements GR-342-CORE, Issue
                           1, December 1995.)
                  4.       The Parties provide their own equipment (CPE) to
                           interface with the DS0, DS1, DS3, STS1 and/or OCn
                           circuits on the customer premises.

         In the establishment of BellSouth's Interconnection Point, if BellSouth
         chooses to collocate with ITC/\DeltaCom, BellSouth will pay
         ITC/\DeltaCom collocation charges at rates no more than the BellSouth
         collocation rates that BellSouth charges ITC/\DeltaCom.

1.2.6    A minimum of one Interconnection Point shall be established in each
         LATA in which ITC/\DeltaCom originates, terminates, or exchanges local
         traffic or ISP-bound traffic and interconnects with BellSouth. The
         location of the initial Interconnection Point shall be established by
         mutual agreement of the Parties. In selecting the initial
         Interconnection Point, both Parties will act in good faith and select
         the point which is most efficient for both Parties. Each Party shall be
         responsible for engineering and maintaining the network on its side of
         the Interconnection Point. Establishment of an initial Interconnection
         Point will be initiated by written request and will be based on traffic
         volumes and patterns, facilities available, and other factors unique to
         the area. If the Parties are not able to reach mutual agreement on an
         initial Interconnection Point within 30 calendar days of the date of
         the written request, the dispute will be escalated to the next level of
         management. The next level of management will meet as often as
         necessary to resolve the dispute. If, 30 calendar days after the
         dispute has been escalated, the Parties are still unable to agree to an
         initial mutual Interconnection Point, each Party will designate the
         initial Interconnection Point for its originated traffic. The Parties
         agree that they have, at the time of entering into this agreement,
         existing Interconnection Points in certain LATAs. As such, the Parties
         agree that if either Party desires to transition an existing
         Interconnection Point or Points, the transition of the first
         Interconnection Point in a LATA will be pursuant to this Section 1.2.6.
         The transition of a subsequent Interconnection Point or Points in a
         LATA shall be pursuant to Section 1.2.6.1 below. Notwithstanding the
         above, no more than eight Interconnection Points regionwide shall be
         transitioned within the first twelve months of the effective date of
         this agreement and no more than sixteen Interconnection Points
         regionwide shall be transitioned over a period of twenty-four months.

         1.2.6.1  Additional Interconnection Points in a particular LATA may be
                  established by mutual agreement of the Parties. Absent mutual
                  agreement, in order to establish additional Interconnection
                  Points in a LATA, the traffic between ITC/\DeltaCom and
                  BellSouth at the proposed additional Interconnection Point
                  must exceed 8.9 million minutes of local or ISP-bound traffic
                  per month for three consecutive months during the busy hour.
                  Additionally, any end office to be designated as an
                  Interconnection Point must be more than 20 miles from an
                  existing Interconnection Point. BellSouth will not designate
                  an Interconnection Point at a Central Office where physical or
                  virtual collocation space or BellSouth fiber connectivity is
                  not available.

                  Upon written notification from the Party requesting the
                  establishment of an additional Interconnection Point, the
                  receiving Party has 45 calendar days to analyze, respond to,
                  and negotiate in good faith the establishment of and location
                  of such Interconnection Point. If the receiving Party
                  disagrees that the traffic and mileage thresholds set forth
                  herein have been met, then such Party may utilize the

                  dispute resolution procedures set forth in the General Terms
                  and Conditions of this Agreement.

1.2.7    The Parties shall make available to each other one way and two way
         trunks for the reciprocal exchange of combined local, ISP-bound and
         intraLATA toll traffic. Consistent with the provisions of Sections
         1.2.6 and 1.2.6.1, the Parties shall institute a bill and keep
         compensation plan effective September 1, 2000 under which neither Party
         will charge the other Party recurring and nonrecurring charges
         associated with local interconnection trunks and facilities for the
         exchange of traffic other than Transit Traffic. Both Parties, as
         appropriate, shall be compensated for the furnishing of local
         interconnection trunks and facilities for the exchange of Transit
         Traffic.

1.2.8    Each Party agrees to use its best efforts and act in good faith to
         adopt reasonable procedures to facilitate the addition of appropriate
         local interconnection trunks and facilities for the exchange of traffic
         between each Party's network.

1.3      METHODS OF INTERCONNECTION

         Each Party at its election shall have the sole right and descretion to
         specify any one of the following methods for interconnection at
         theInterconnection Point:

         a)  a Fiber-Meet as set forth in Section 1.3.3 of this Attachment;

         b)  a collocation facility which it maintains at the other Party's
             Interconnection Point wire center (i.e., physical collocation as
             set forth in Attachment 4 of this Agreement);

         c)  a collocation facility maintained at the Interconnection Point wire
             center by a third party with whom the Party requesting
             interconnection has contracted for such purpose;or

         d)  Interconnection via purchase of leased facility(ies) as set forth
             in Section 1.3.2 below.

1.3.1    The Party requesting interconnection shall provide written notice to
         the other Party to change from one of the interconnection methods
         specified above to another of the networks specified above. The parties
         shall negotiate in good faith the interval for changing the
         interconnection methods. A mutually acceptable third party contractor
         can be employed by the Party making the change.

1.3.2    INTERCONNECTION VIA PURCHASE OF FACILITIES

         1.3.2.1  In lieu of providing facilities on its side of the
                  Interconnection Point, either Party may purchase Local Channel
                  facilities from the Party's specified Interconnection Point to
                  its designated serving wire center. The Parties agree that
                  charges for such

                  Local Channel facilities are as set forth in Attachment 11. If
                  a nonrecurring or recurring rate is not identified in
                  Attachment 11 for a Local Channel, the rate shall be as set
                  forth in the appropriate BellSouth intrastate or interstate
                  tariff for switched access services.

                  1.3.2.1.1Additionally, and in lieu of provising facilities on
                           its side of the Interconnection Point, either party
                           may purchase Dedicated Transport facilities from its
                           designated serving wire center to the other Party's
                           first point of switching. The Parties agree that
                           charges for such Dedicated Transport facilities are
                           as set forth in Attachment 11. If a nonrecurring or
                           recurring rate is not identified in Attachment 11 for
                           Dedicated Transport, the rate shall be as set forth
                           in the appropriate BellSouth intrastate or interstate
                           tariff for switched access services.

         1.3.2.2  For the purposes of this Attachment, Local Channel is defined
                  as a switch transport facility between a Party's Point of
                  Presence and its designated serving wire center.

         1.3.2.3  For the purposes of this Attachment, Serving Wire Center is
                  defined as the wire center owned by one Party from which the
                  other Party would normally obtain dial tone for its Point of
                  Presence.

         1.3.2.4  For the purposes of this Attachment, Dedicated Transport is
                  defined as a switch transport facility between a Party's
                  designated serving wire center and the first point of
                  switching on the other Party's common (shared) network.

1.3.3    FIBER MEET

         "Fiber-Meet" or "Mid-Span Meet" means an Interconnection
         architecture method whereby the Parties physically interconnect their
         networks via an optical fiber interface (as opposed to an electrical
         interface) at a mutually agreed upon location, at which one Party's
         responsibility or service begins and the other Party's responsibility
         ends.

         1.3.3.1  If ITC/\DeltaCom elects to interconnect with BellSouth
                  pursuant to a Fiber Meet, ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth shall
                  jointly engineer and operate a Synchronous Optical Network
                  ("SONET") transmission system by which they shall interconnect
                  their networks for the transmission and routing of Telephone
                  Exchange Service traffic pursuant to Section 251 (c)(2) of the
                  Act. The Parties shall work together to determine the specific
                  SONET transmission system. However, ITC/\DeltaCom's SONET
                  transmission system must be compatible with BellSouth's
                  equipment in the Serving Wire Center. The Parties respective
                  equipment and software versions must be compatible with each
                  other and the data communications channel

ATTACHMENT 3                                                              PAGE 6

                  must be turned off. BellSouth reserves the right to determine
                  the equipment (and compatibility thereof) that it employs for
                  service.

         1.3.3.2  BellSouth shall, wholly at its own expense, procure, install
                  and maintain the agreed upon SONET equipment in the BellSouth
                  central office within the interconnection wire center.

         1.3.3.3  ITC/\DeltaCom shall, wholly at its own expense, procure,
                  install and maintain the agreed upon SONET equipment in the
                  ITC/\DeltaCom central office within the interconnection wire
                  center.

         1.3.3.4  BellSouth shall designate an Interconnection Point outside the
                  BellSouth central office within the interconnection wire
                  center as a Fiber Meet point, and shall make all necessary
                  preparations to receive, and to allow and enable ITC/\DeltaCom
                  to deliver, fiber optic facilities into the Interconnection
                  Point with sufficient spare length to reach the fusion splice
                  point at the Interconnection Point. BellSouth shall, wholly at
                  its own expense, procure, install and maintain the fusion
                  splicing point in the Interconnection Point. A Common Language
                  Location Identification ("CLLI") code will be established for
                  each Point of Interface. The code established must be a
                  building type code. All orders shall originate from the
                  Interconnection Point (i.e., Interconnection Point to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom, Interconnection Point to BellSouth).

         1.3.3.5  ITC/\DeltaCom shall deliver and maintain such strands wholly
                  at itsown expense. Upon verbal request by ITC/\DeltaCom,
                  BellSouth shall allow ITC/\DeltaCom access to the Fiber Meet
                  entry point for maintenance purposes as promptly as possible.

         1.3.3.6  The Parties shall jointly coordinate and undertake maintenance
                  of the SONET transmission system. Each Party shall be
                  responsible for maintaining the components of the SONET
                  transmission system (e.g., software upgrades).

         1.3.3.7  Each Party will be responsible for (i) providing its own
                  transport facilities to the Fiber Meet, (ii) the cost to
                  build-out its facilities to such Fiber Meet, and (iii)
                  ITC/\DeltaCom can use BellSouth's dark fiber leases as
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's portion of the network between the
                  ITC/\DeltaCom POP and the Interconnection Point.

         1.3.3.8  Neither Party shall charge the other for its portion of the
                  Fiber Meet facility used exclusively for non-transit local
                  traffic (i.e. the Local Channel). Charges incurred for other
                  services including dedicated transport facilities to the Point
                  of Interconnection if applicable will

                  apply. Charges for Switched and Special Access Services shall
                  be billed in accordance with the applicable Access Service
                  tariff (i.e. the BellSouth Interstate or Intrastate Access
                  Services Tariff).

1.4      INTERCONNECTION IN ADDITIONAL LATAS

1.4.1    If ITC/\DeltaCom elects to offer Telephone Exchange Services in any
         other LATA in which BellSouth also offers Telephone Exchange Services,
         ITC/\DeltaCom shall provide written notice to BellSouth of the need to
         establish Interconnection in such additional LATA pursuant to this
         Agreement.

           1.4.1.1The notice provided in SECTION 1.4.1 shall include (i) the
                  initial Interconnection Point ITC/\DeltaCom has designated for
                  its originated traffic in the new LATA; (ii) ITC/\DeltaCom's
                  requested Interconnection Activation Date; and (iii) a
                  non-binding forecast of ITC/\DeltaCom's trunking requirements.

1.5      ADDITIONAL INTERCONNECTION IN EXISTING LATAS

         If either party wishes to establish additional or new Interconnection
         Point(s) in any LATA, the Requesting Party shall provide written notice
         thereof to the other Party. The terms and conditions of this Agreement
         shall apply to such Interconnection. Neither party shall unreasonably
         refuse to interconnect for the delivery of traffic at each
         Interconnection Point (e.g., Points of collocation, existing entrance
         facilities, or any other mutually agreeable location). The Parties
         shall negotiate in good faith the interval for such additional or new
         Interconnection Point. If and when either Party deploys a new tandem
         switch or rehomes end offices, the Party initiating such change shall
         notify all interconnectors (including LERG updates) so that affected
         Parties may establish proper interconnection arrangements.

2.0      PERCENT LOCAL USAGE/PERCENT INTERSTATE USAGE

         PERCENT LOCAL USE. Each Party will report to the other a Percentage
         Local Usage ("PLU"). The application of the PLU will determine the
         amount of local minutes to be billed to the other party. For purposes
         of developing the PLU, each party shall consider every local call and
         every long distance call, excluding intermediary traffic. Effective on
         the first of January, April, July and October of each year, BellSouth
         and ITC/\DeltaCom shall provide a positive report updating the PLU.
         Detailed requirements associated with PLU reporting shall be as set
         forth in BellSouth's Standard Percent Local Use Reporting Platform for
         Interconnection Purchasers, as it is amended from time to time during
         this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, where the terminating
         company has message recording technology that identifies the traffic
         terminated, such information, in lieu of the PLU factor,

Florida
<PAGE>

ATTACHMENT 3                                                              PAGE 8

         shall upon mutual agreement of the Parties be utilized to determine the
         appropriate local usage compensation to be paid.

         PERCENTAGE INTERSTATE USAGE. Both Party's based on their respective
         tariffs for combined interstate and intrastate traffic terminated by
         the other Party over the same facilities, will be required to provide a
         projected Percentage Interstate Usage ("PIU") to the other Party. All
         jurisdictional report requirements, rules and regulations for
         Interexchange Carriers specified in the Parties' Access Services Tariff
         will apply. After interstate and intrastate traffic percentages have
         been determined by use of PIU procedures, the PLU factor will be used
         for application and billing of local interconnection. Notwithstanding
         the foregoing, where the terminating company has message recording
         technology that identifies the traffic terminated, such information, in
         lieu of the PLU factor, shall upon mutual agreement of the Parties be
         utilized to determine the appropriate local usage compensation to be
         paid.

2.1 AUDITS

        On thirty (30) days written notice, each party must provide the other
        the ability and opportunity to conduct an annual audit to ensure the
        proper billing of traffic. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall retain
        records of call detail for a minimum of nine months from which a PLU can
        be ascertained. The audit shall be accomplished during normal business
        hours at an office designated by the party being audited. Audit requests
        shall not be submitted more frequently than one (1) time per calendar
        year. Audits shall be performed by a mutually acceptable independent
        auditory paid for by the party requesting the audit. The PLU and/or PIU
        shall be adjusted based upon the audit results and shall apply to the
        usage for the quarter the audit was completed, to the usage for the
        quarter prior to the completion of the audit, and to the usage for the
        two quarters following the completion of the audit.

3.0     METHODS OF INTERCONNECTION

3.1     SCOPE OF TRAFFIC

        This section prescribes parameters for trunk groups to be effected over
        the interconnections specified in this attachment 3 hereof for the
        transmission and routing of telephone exchange service traffic,
        Intralata Toll Traffic and Exchange Access Traffic. The Parties agree
        for the purpose of this Attachment that Local Interconnection is as
        defined in Part B of the General Terms and Conditions of this Agreement.

3.2     INTERCONNECTION TRUNKING AND ROUTING

3.2.1   TRUNKING OPTIONS. Each of the following trunking arrangements shall be
        available to either party, unless bellsouth demonstrates, consistent
        with objectively verifiable engineering standards, that such arrangement
        is not

        technically feasible. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall establish
        interconnecting trunk groups and trunking configurations between
        networks including the establishment of one-way or two-way trunks in
        accordance with the following conditions:

Florida
<PAGE>

ATTACHMENT 3                                                             PAGE 10

3.2.1.1  INITIAL TRUNKING CONFIGURATION. At the specified Interconnection
         Point(s) per this Agreement, ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth shall
         interconnect using one-way trunk groups. One group carries
         ITC/\DeltaCom-originated local and intraLATA toll traffic destined for
         BellSouth end-users. The other group carries BellSouth-originated local
         and intraLATA toll traffic destined for ITC/\DeltaCom end-users. A
         trunk group must be established as a two-way group from the
         ITC/\DeltaCom switch to BellSouth access tandem(s) or local tandem(s)
         as specified in this Agreement. This group carries intratandem transit
         traffic between ITC/\DeltaCom and Independent Companies, Interexchange
         Carriers, other CLECs and other network providers with which
         ITC/\DeltaCom desires interconnection and has the proper contractual
         arrangements. If MTA is ordered to the BellSouth access tandem, this
         group may also carry intertandem traffic between ITC/\DeltaCom and
         Independent Companies, other CLECs, and other network providers (except
         Interexchange Carriers) with which ITC/\DeltaCom desires
         interconnection and has the proper contractual arrangements as
         specified in this Agreement. Other trunk groups for operator services,
         directory assistance, emergency services and intercept may be
         established if required.

3.2.1.2  TWO-WAY TRUNKING CONFIGURATION. Two-Way Trunk Interconnection
         establishes two-way trunk groups to carry local and intraLATA toll
         traffic between ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth. ITC/\DeltaCom and
         BellSouth must agree to the "BellSouth Two-way Trunking Rules"
         (described later in this attachment) in order to establish this
         architecture. The other parameters are similar to one-way trunk
         interconnection as described by the Initial Trunking architecture
         above. Other trunk groups for operator services, directory assistance,
         emergency services and intercept may be established if required.

3.2.1.3  SUPERGROUP TRUNKING CONFIGURATION. In the Supergroup arrangement, all
         local, intraLATA toll and transit traffic is carried on a single
         two-way trunk group between the ITC/\DeltaCom switch and each BellSouth
         access tandem within a LATA. ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth must agree to
         the " BellSouth Two-way Trunking Rules" in order to establish this
         architecture. Other trunk groups for operator services, directory
         assistance, emergency services and intercept may be established if
         required.

3.2.1.4  PREFERRED TRUNKING CONFIGURATION. At the specified Interconnection
         Point(s) per this Agreement, all ITC/\DeltaCom-to-BellSouth local,
         two-way intraLATA toll and two-way transit traffic is carried on a
         single two-way trunk group between the ITC/\DeltaCom switch and
         BellSouth access tandem(s) within a LATA. BellSouth-to-ITC/\DeltaCom
         local and intraLATA Toll traffic is carried on one-way trunk groups
         terminating to the ITC/\DeltaCom switch. Other trunk groups for
         operator services, directory assistance, emergency services and
         intercept may be established if required.

3.2.2    BellSouth Two-Way Trunking Rules

         3.2.2.1  ITC/\DeltaCom will initiate 2-way trunk request, and BellSouth
                  will concur. However, 2-way trunks will be jointly
                  provisioned.

Florida

ATTACHMENT 3                                                             PAGE 11

         3.2.2.2  The Interconnection Point will be located at a mutually agreed
                  location orpoint designated by BellSouth. If an agreement
                  cannot be reached on the location of the Interconnection
                  Point, each company will establish its own Interconnection
                  Point and order 1-way trunks.

         3.2.2.3  BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom will jointly review the trunk
                  forecast, as needed, on a periodic basis, or at least every
                  six (6) months.

         3.2.2.4  ITC/\DeltaCom will order trunks using ASR process in place for
                  Local Interconnection after the joint planning meeting takes
                  place between BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom.

         3.2.2.5  BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom must agree on Standard Traffic
                  Engineering parameters that will be used in the engineering of
                  the trunk groups.

         3.2.2.6  BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom must agree to meet and resolve
                  service-affecting situations in a timely manner.

         3.2.2.7  Establishing a 2-way trunk group does not preclude BellSouth
                  or ITC/\DeltaCom from adding 1-way trunk groups within the
                  same Local Calling Area.

         3.2.2.8  For technical reasons, 2-way trunk groups may not be ordered
                  to a BellSouth DMS100 Local Tandem or DMS100 End Office.

         3.2.2.9  BellSouth will be responsible for the installation and
                  maintenance of its trunks and facilities to the mutually
                  agreed Interconnection Point, and ITC/\DeltaCom will be
                  responsible for the installation and maintenance of its trunks
                  and facilities to the mutually agreed to Interconnection
                  Point.

3.2.3    Any ITC/\DeltaCom interconnection request that deviates from the
         standard trunking configurations as described in this section or the
         BellSouth Call Transport & Termination Service For Facility Based CLECs
         section of the Facility Based CLEC Activation Requirements Customer
         Guide that affects traffic delivered toITC/\DeltaCom from a BellSouth
         switch that requires special BellSouth switch translations and other
         network modifications will requireITC/\DeltaCom to submit a Bona Fide
         Request/New Business Request via the Bona Fide Request/New Business
         Request Process set forth in General Terms and Conditions and in
         Attachment 9.

3.2.4    Except as otherwise provided in 1.2.7, all terms and conditions, as
         well as charges, both non-recurring and recurring, associated with
         interconnecting trunk groups between BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom not
         addressed in Attachment 11 shall be as set forth in the appropriate
         BellSouth intrastate or interstate tariff for switched access services.
         ITC/\DeltaCom shall be responsible for ordering and paying for any
         two-way trunks carrying transit traffic.

3.2.5    The Parties shall utilize direct end office trunking under the
         following conditions:

Florida
<PAGE>

ATTACHMENT 3                                                             PAGE 12

                  (1) Tandem Exhaust - If a tandem through which the Parties are
                  interconnected is unable to, or is forecasted to be unable to
                  support additional traffic loads for any period of time, the
                  Parties will mutually agree on an end office trunking plan
                  that will alleviate the tandem capacity shortage and ensure
                  completion of traffic between ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth's
                  subscribers.

                  (2) Traffic Volume -To the extent either Party has the
                  capability to measure the amount of traffic between a
                  ITC/\DeltaCom switching center and a BellSouth end office,
                  either Party shall install and retain direct end office
                  trunking sufficient to handle actual or reasonably forecasted
                  traffic volumes, whichever is greater, between a ITC/\DeltaCom
                  switching center and a BellSouth end office where the traffic
                  exceeds or is forecasted to exceed a single DS1 of local
                  traffic per month. Either Party will install additional
                  capacity between such points when overflow traffic between
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's switching center and BellSouth's end office
                  exceeds or is forecasted to exceed a single DS1 of local
                  traffic per month. In the case of one way trunking, additional
                  trunking shall only be required by the Party whose trunking
                  has achieved the preceding usage threshold.

                  (3) Mutual Agreement - The Parties may install direct end
                  office trunking upon mutual agreement in the absence of the
                  conditions (1) or (2) above and agreement will not
                  unreasonably be withheld.

3.2.6    Switched Access traffic will be delivered to and by IXCs based on
         ITC/\DeltaCom's NXX Access Tandem homing arrangement as specified by
         ITC/\DeltaCom in the national Local Exchange Routing Guide (LERG).

3.2.7    All trunk groups will be provisioned as Signaling System 7 (SS7)
         capable where technically feasible.

  3.3.   MULTIPLE TANDEM ACCESS.

3.3.1    Multiple Tandem Access (MTA) provides for LATA wide transport and
         termination of local and intraLATA toll traffic of a Party by
         establishing interconnection trunk group(s) at the transporting and
         terminating Party's access tandem with routing through multiple access
         tandems of the transporting and terminating Party as required. However,
         the Party originating such traffic must establish interconnection trunk
         group(s) at all access tandems of the transporting and terminating
         Party where the originating Party's NXXs are "homed". If the
         originating Party does not have NXXs homed at an access tandem of the
         transporting and terminating Party within a LATA and elects not to
         establish an interconnection trunk group(s) at such access tandem, the
         originating Party may order MTA in

ATTACHMENT 3                                                             PAGE 13

         each access tandem of the transporting and terminating Party within the
         LATA where it does have interconnection trunk group(s) and the
         transporting and terminating Party will terminate traffic to end-users
         served through those access tandems where the originating Party does
         not have an Interconnection Point. MTA shall be provisioned in
         accordance with the transporting and terminating Party's Ordering
         Guidelines.

3.3.2    MTA does not include switched access traffic that transits the
         transporting and terminating Party's network to an Interexchange
         Carrier (IXC). Switched Access traffic will be delivered to and by IXCs
         based on the originating Party's NXX Access Tandem homing arrangement
         as specified by the originating Party in the national Local Exchange
         Routing Guide (LERG).

3.3.3    For local and intraLATA toll traffic originated by one Party that the
         other Party transports but is destined for termination by a third Party
         network (transit traffic), MTA is required if multiple access tandems
         are necessary to deliver the call to the third party network..

3.3.4    With MTA, for the delivery of a Party's local and ISP-bound traffic,
         such Party will be assessed charges as specified in Attachment 11 to
         this Agreement for the additional transport and tandem switching on an
         elemental basis in addition to the reciprocal compensation rate to
         which the Parties have agreed in Section 6.1.2. Notwithstanding the
         foregoing, in the situation of tandem exhaust at any particular tandem,
         where the Parties choose MTA as an alternative routing plan, the
         Parties will negotiate in good-faith appropriate rates, terms and
         conditions for MTA.

3.3.5    To the extent a Party does not purchase MTA in a calling area that has
         multiple access tandems serving the calling area as defined by the
         other Party, such must establish an interconnection trunk group(s) to
         every access tandem in the calling area in order to serve the entire
         calling area. To the extent a Party does not purchase MTA and provides
         intraLATA toll service to its customers, it may be necessary for it to
         establish interconnection trunk group(s) to additional access tandems
         of the transporting and terminating Party that serve end offices
         outside the local calling area.

3.4      LOCAL TANDEM INTERCONNECTION. This interconnection arrangement allows
         ITC/\DeltaCom to establish interconnection trunk group(s) at BellSouth
         local tandems for: (1) the delivery of ITC/\DeltaCom-originated local
         traffic transported and terminated by BellSouth to BellSouth end
         offices within the local calling area as defined in BellSouth's GSST,
         section A3 served by those BellSouth local tandems, and (2) for local
         transit traffic transported by BellSouth for third party network
         providers who have also established interconnection trunk group(s) at
         those BellSouth local tandems.

3.4.1    When a specified local calling area is served by more than one
         BellSouth local tandem, ITC/\DeltaCom must designate a "home" local
         tandem for each of its assigned

ATTACHMENT 3                                                             PAGE 14

         NPA/NXXs and establish trunk connections to such local tandems.
         Additionally, ITC/\DeltaCom may choose to establish interconnection
         trunk group(s) at the BellSouth local tandems where it has no codes
         homing but is not required to do so. ITC/\DeltaCom may deliver local
         traffic to a "home" BellSouth local tandem that is destined for other
         BellSouth or third party network provider end offices subtending other
         BellSouth local tandems in the same local calling area where
         ITC/\DeltaCom does not choose to establish a interconnection trunk
         group(s). It is ITC/\DeltaCom's responsibility to enter its own NPA/NXX
         local tandem homing arrangements into the Local Exchange Routing Guide
         (LERG) either directly or via a vendor in order for other third party
         network providers to determine appropriate traffic routing to
         ITC/\DeltaCom's codes. Likewise, ITC/\DeltaCom shall obtain its routing
         information from the LERG.

3.4.2    Notwithstanding establishing interconnection trunk group(s) to
         BellSouth's local tandems, ITC/\DeltaCom must also establish
         interconnection trunk group(s) to BellSouth access tandems within the
         LATA on which ITC/\DeltaCom has NPA/NXX's homed for the delivery of
         Interexchange Carrier Switched Access (SWA) and toll traffic, and
         traffic to Type 2A CMRs connections located at the access tandems.
         BellSouth cannot switch SWA traffic through more than one BellSouth
         access tandem. SWA, Type 2A CMRs or toll traffic routed to the local
         tandem in error will not be backhauled to the BellSouth access tandem
         for completion. (Type 2A CMRs interconnection is defined in BellSouth's
         A35 General Subscriber Services Tariff.)

3.4.3    BellSouth's provisioning of local tandem interconnection assumes
         that ITC/\DeltaCom has executed the necessary local interconnection
         agreements with the other third party network providers subtending
         those local tandems as required by the Act.

3.5      Direct connection to an End Office shall provide the Party requesting
         Interconnection with access to all valid NXX codes served by that End
         Office. Direct end office trunking may not be unreasonably withheld.
         Trunking can be established to tandems or end offices or a combination
         as mutually agreed.

3.6      If a pre-existing trunk group is unable to support additional traffic
         loads, or consistent with standard trunk engineering practices, is
         reasonably forecasted as specified in accordance with Section 4.4 to be
         unable to support additional traffic loads, each Party shall, upon
         request of the other Party, provision additional trunks to expand the
         capacity of such pre-existing trunk group (within the timeframes
         specified in Attachments 6 and 10 to the Agreement).

3.7      ITC/\DeltaCom may opt at any time to terminate to BellSouth some or all
         local exchange traffic and intraLATA toll traffic originating on its
         network, together with switched access traffic, via Feature Group B or
         D Switched Access services which ITC/\DeltaCom may otherwise purchase
         from BellSouth, subject to the rates, terms and conditions specified in
         BellSouth's applicable switched access tariffs. At no time shall
         ITC/\DeltaCom be required to route outbound traffic via facilities for
         which a full retail or end

         user toll charge would be assessed when parallel FG-B or FG-D routing,
         or routing via a different carrier exists which is capable of carrying
         and completing said traffic at more favorable rates. However, Switched
         Access Traffic will not be represented as Local Traffic.

4.0      NETWORK DESIGN AND MANAGEMENT FOR INTERCONNECTION

4.1      NETWORK MANAGEMENT AND CHANGES. BellSouth shall work cooperatively with
         ITC/\DeltaCom to install and maintain the most effective and reliable
         interconnected telecommunications networks, including but not limited
         to, the exchange of toll-free maintenance contact numbers and
         escalation procedures. BellSouth agrees to provide public notice of
         changes in the information necessary for the transmission and routing
         of services using its Local Exchange facilities or networks, as well as
         of any other changes that would affect the interoperability of those
         facilities and networks.

4.2      INTERCONNECTION- TECHNICAL STANDARDS. The interconnection of all
         networks will be based upon accepted industry/national guidelines for
         transmission standards and traffic blocking criteria. Interconnecting
         facilities shall conform, at a minimum, to the telecommunications
         industry standard of DS1 pursuant to Bellcore Standard No.
         TR-NWT-00499. Signal transfer point, Signaling System 7("SS7")
         connectivity is required at each interconnection point. BellSouth will
         provide out-of-band signaling using Common Channel Signaling Access
         Capability where technically and economically feasible, in accordance
         with the technical specifications set forth in the BellSouth Guidelines
         to Technical Publication, TR-TSV000905. Facilities of each Party shall
         provide the necessary on-hook, off-hook answer and disconnect
         supervision and shall hand off calling number ID when technically
         feasible.

4.3      NETWORK MANAGEMENT CONTROLS. Both Parties shall work cooperatively with
         each other to apply sound network management principles by invoking
         appropriate network management controls, e.g., call gapping, to
         alleviate or prevent network congestion.

4.4      FORECASTING REQUIREMENTS

4.4.1    The Parties shall exchange technical descriptions and forecasts of
         their Interconnection and traffic requirements in sufficient detail
         necessary to establish the interconnections required to assure traffic
         completion to and from all customers in their respective designated
         service areas. In order for BellSouth to provide as accurate reciprocal
         trunking forecasts as possible to ITC/\DeltaCom, ITC/\DeltaCom must
         timely inform BellSouth of any known or anticipated events that may
         affect BellSouth reciprocal trunking requirements. If ITC/\DeltaCom
         refuses to provide such information, BellSouth shall provide reciprocal
         trunking forecasts based only on existing

         trunk group growth and BellSouth's annual estimated percentage of
         BellSouth subscriber line growth.

4.4.2    Both Parties shall meet every six (6) months or at otherwise mutually
         agreeable intervals for the purpose of exchanging non-binding forecasts
         of their traffic and volume requirements for the Interconnection and
         Network Elements provided under this Agreement, in the form and in such
         detail as agreed by the Parties. The Parties agree that each forecast
         provided under this Section shall be deemed "Confidential Information"
         under Section 9 of the General Terms and Conditions - Part A of the
         Agreement.

4.4.3    The trunk forecast should include trunk requirements for all of the
         interconnecting trunk groups for the current year plus the next two
         future years. The forecast meeting between the Parties could be a
         face-to-face meeting, video conference or audio conference. It could be
         held regionally or geographically. Ideally, these forecast meetings
         should be held at least semi-annually, or more often if the forecast is
         no longer usable. Updates to a forecast or portions thereof, should be
         made whenever the Party providing the forecast deems that the latest
         trunk requirements exceed the original quantities by 24 trunks or ten
         percent (10%), whichever is greater. Either Party should notify the
         other Party if they have measurements indicating that a trunk group is
         exceeding its designed call carrying capacity and is impacting other
         trunk groups in the network. Also, either Party should notify the other
         Party if they know of situations where the traffic load is expected to
         increase significantly and thus affect the interconnecting trunk
         requirements as well as the trunk requirements within the other Party's
         network. The Parties agree that the forecast information provided under
         this Section shall be deemed "Confidential Information" as described in
         the General Terms and Conditions Part A of the Agreement.

4.4.4    Binding forecast:

4.4.4.1  In addition to, and not in lieu of, non-binding forecasts,
         ITC/\DeltaCom may at its electionprovide to BellSouth a binding
         forecast of the trunks that BellSouth will need to interconnect with
         ITC/\DeltaCom in order to terminate traffic to ITC/\DeltaCom. Unless
         otherwise agreed, a binding forecast may not be requested for an
         existing trunk group that is underutilized as defined in this section
         or for exhausted BellSouth switch locations. ITC/\DeltaCom shall
         provide to BellSouth sufficient justification for the quantity of
         trunks contained within the binding forecast. The due date contained in
         the binding forecast shall be no less than three months from the date
         of the binding forecast. Once the binding forecast is submitted to
         BellSouth, ITC/\DeltaCom agrees to make no changes to said forecast.

4.4.4.2  BellSouth shall provide the total amount of requested trunks from
         either tandem or end offices depending on trunk and facilities
         availability.

4.4.4.3  A binding forecast shall not replace the ASR process of ordering trunks
         and BellSouth shall order the quantity of trunks from ITC/\DeltaCom set
         forth in the binding forecast. BellSouth shall request due dates on the
         trunk orders to coincide with the due dates specified in the binding
         forecast, and the Parties shall provision the ordered trunks by the due
         date.

4.4.4.4  To recover the cost associated with assuring that the quantity of trunk
         port terminations needed to meet the binding forecast are available on
         the agreed upon due date, ITC/\DeltaCom shall pay to BellSouth a non-
         recurring charge of $305.00 for the first DS1 trunk port and a non-
         recurring charge $152.50 for each additional DS1 trunk port forecasted
         in a trunk group (i.e. between an A to Z location or BellSouth switch
         location to an ITC/\DeltaCom switch location)

4.4.4.5  If, within 180 days of the installation of the trunks, 60 percent of
         the capacity of the trunks is not being utilized, ITC/\DeltaCom will
         pay BellSouth a percentage of the total monthly recurring trunk and
         facility charges as set forth in BellSouth's tariffs for the percentage
         of the trunks' capacity that is not being utilized.

4.4.4.6  If, within 360 days of the installation of the trunks, 85 percent of
         the capacity of the trunks is not being utilized, ITC/\DeltaCom will
         pay BellSouth a percentage of the total monthly recurring trunk and
         facility charges as set forth in BellSouth's tariffs for the percentage
         of the trunks' capacity that is not being utilized.

4.4.4.7  If, within 405 days of the installation of the trunks, the trunks are
         not being utilized to 85 percent of the capacity of the trunks, the
         excess trunks may be disconnected by BellSouth.

4.4.4.8  Utilization on BellSouth reciprocal interconnection trunk groups
         associated with a binding forecast shall be measured monthly and shall
         be measured at the time consistent busy hour. The charges as a result
         of under-utilization as described in the preceding section shall apply
         monthly.

4.4.4.9  Except in the instance of underutilization by ITC/\DeltaCom in Section
         4.4.4.5 , neither Party shall charge the other for nonrecurring trunk
         and recurring, if applicable, trunk charges associated with a binding
         forecast.

4.4.4.10 Where BellSouth installs additional facilities on an interconnection
         trunk group associated with a binding forecast, ITC/\DeltaCom will not
         be subject to underutilization penalties as set for in this Section
         4.4.4.

4.5      COMMON CHANNEL SIGNALING. Both Parties shall provide LEC-to-LEC Common
         Channel Signaling ("CCS") to each other, where available, in
         conjunction with all traffic in order to enable full interoperability
         of CLASS

ATTACHMENT 3                                                             PAGE 18

         features and functions except for call return. All CCS signaling
         parameters will be provided, including automatic number identification
         ("ANI"), calling party number ("CPN"), originating line information
         ("OLI"), calling company category, charge number, etc. All privacy
         indicators will be honored, and each Party will cooperate with the
         other on the exchange of Transactional Capabilities Application Part
         ("TCAP") messages to facilitate full interoperability of CCS-based
         features between the respective networks. Where available, network
         signaling information such as Carrier Identification Parameter (CCS
         platform), at the standard tariff rates, and CIC/OZZ information
         (non-CCS environment) will be provided wherever such information is
         needed for call routing or billing. The Parties will follow all
         Ordering and Billing Forum (OBF) adopted standards pertaining to
         CIC/OZZ codes. Where CCS is not available, in-band multi-frequency (MF)
         wink start E&M channel Associated signaling will be provided. Such MF
         arrangements will require a separate trunk group between
         ITC/\DeltaCom's switch and one specified BellSouth switch.
         ITC/\DeltaCom shall establish CCS interconnection with BellSouth signal
         transfer points (STPs) in each LATA, either directly or via an
         intermediary STP provider.

4.5.1    Where the interconnection is via B-link connections, charges for the
         SS7 interconnection elements are as follows: 1) Port Charge - BellSouth
         will not bill an STP port charge nor will BellSouth agree to pay a port
         charge; 2) SS7 Network Usage - BellSouth will bill SS7 Network Usage
         and will agree to pay usage billed by ITC/\DeltaCom (to the extent that
         a flat rate surrogate charge is billed by ITC/\DeltaCom, it will not
         exceed BellSouth's charge); 3) SS7 Link- BellSouth will bill for only
         two links of each quad ordered. Application of these charges in this
         manner reflects the reciprocal use of the two parties signaling
         networks.

4.5.2    Where the interconnection is via A-link connections, charges for the
         SS7 interconnection elements are as follows: 1) Port Charge- BellSouth
         will bill an STP port charge and does not agree to pay a termination
         charge at ITC/\DeltaCom's end office; 2) SS7 Network Usage- BellSouth
         will bill for usage on its SS7 network and will not agree to pay for
         any usage billed by ITC/\DeltaCom; 3) Link- BellSouth will bill full
         charges for each link in the A link pair and will not agree to pay
         ITC/\DeltaCom for any portion of those links

4.5.3    Call Information. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom will send and receive 10
         digits for local traffic. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall exchange
         the proper call information, i.e., originated call company number and
         destination call company number, CIC, and OZZ, including all proper
         translations for routing between networks and any information necessary
         for billing.

4.5.4    Each Party is responsible for requesting Interconnection to the other
         Party's CCS network, where SS7 signaling on the trunk group(s) is
         desired. The Parties shall establish Interconnection at the STP.

4.5.5    Where available and upon the request of the other Party, each Party
         shall cooperate to ensure that its trunk groups are configured
         utilizing the B8ZS ESF protocol for 64 kbps clear channel transmission
         to allow for ISDN interoperability between the Parties' respective
         networks.

4.5.6    All originating Toll Free Service calls for which BellSouth performs
         the Service Switching Point (SSP) function (e.g., performs the database
         query) shall be delivered by ITC/\DeltaCom using GR-394 format over the
         transit trunk group. Carrier Code "0110" and Circuit Code of "08" shall
         be used for all such calls. In the event ITC/\DeltaCom becomes a toll
         free service provider, BellSouth shall deliver traffic using the GR-394
         format over a trunk group designated for Toll Free Service.

4.5.7    All originating Toll Free Service calls for which ITC/\DeltaCom
         performs the SSP function, if delivered to BellSouth, shall be
         delivered by ITC/\DeltaCom using GR-394 format over the transit trunk
         group for calls destined to IXCs, or shall be delivered by
         ITC/\DeltaCom using GR-317 format over the Local Interconnection Trunk
         Group for calls destined to end offices that directly subtend BellSouth
         access tandems.

5.0      PARITY

         Interconnection shall be equal in quality to that provided by the
         Parties to themselves or to any subsidiary, affiliate, or other party.
         Equal in quality means that interconnection facilities shall meet the
         same technical criteria and service standards that are used within the
         Parties' own networks, such as probability of blocking in peak hours
         and transmission standards.

5.1      The Parties shall provide Interconnection (i) in accordance with the
         requirements of this Attachment 3, (ii) in conformance with the
         Performance Standards listed in Attachment 10, and (iii) as required by
         the applicable state Commission and the FCC.

5.2      Local Dialing Parity

         Each party shall provide local dialing parity, meaning that each
         party's customers will not have to dial any greater number of digits
         than the other Party's customers to complete the same call. In
         addition, under equivalent interconnection arrangements, ITC/\DeltaCom
         local service customers will experience at least the same quality as
         bellsouth local service customers regarding post-dial delay, call
         completion rate and transmission quality.

6.0      INTERCONNECTION COMPENSATION

6.1      COMPENSATION FOR CALL TRANSPORTATION AND TERMINATION FOR LOCAL TRAFFIC
         AND INTER-CARRIER COMPENSATION FOR ISP-BOUND TRAFFIC

6.1.1    Local Traffic is defined as any telephone call that originates and
         terminates in the same Local Access and Transport Area ("LATA") as that
         term is defined in 47 U.S.C. ss. 153(25) of the Communications Act of
         1934, as amended.

6.1.2    Subject to the Parties agreement to the terms of Sections 1.2 through
         1.2.8, 1.3.2, 3.3.3, and 6.1 through 6.1.9,the Parties will compensate
         each other on a mutual and reciprocal basis for the transport and
         termination of Local Traffic at the following rates:

         1/1/01 - 12/31/01                           $.00175 per MOU
         1/1/02 - 12/31/02                           $.00150 per MOU

         The Parties recognize and agree that they negotiated these annual rates
         together as a complete rate structure to apply over the full term of
         this Agreement and that the Parties would not have mutually agreed to
         accept a single annual rate in any single year.

6.1.3    The Parties have been unable to agree upon whether dial up calls to
         Internet Service Providers ("ISPs") should be considered Local Traffic
         for purposes of this Agreement. Dial-up Calls are defined as calls to
         an ISP that are dialed by using a local dialing pattern (7 or 10
         digits) by the calling party to an ISP server located in the LATA
         (hereinafter referred to as "ISP-bound traffic"). However, without
         prejudice to either Party's position concerning the application of
         reciprocal compensation to ISP-bound traffic, the Parties agree for
         purposes of this Agreement only to compensate each other for the
         delivery of ISP-bound traffic at the same per minute of use rates set
         forth in Paragraph 6.1.2. It is expressly understood and agreed that
         this inter-carrier compensation mechanism for ISP-bound traffic is
         being established in consideration for: (1) the waiver and release by
         each Party for any and all claims for reciprocal compensation for
         ISP-bound traffic exchanged between the Parties prior to January 1,
         2001, which is hereby given; and (2) the terms and conditions in
         Sections 1.2 through 1.2.8, 1.3.2, 3.3.3, and 6.1 through 6.1.9.

6.1.4.   The Parties recognize and agree that the FCC, courts of competent
         jurisdiction, or state commissions with jurisdiction over the Parties
         will issue subsequent decisions on ISP-bound traffic ("Subsequent
         Decisions"). Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the
         contrary, the inter-carrier compensation mechanism established in
         Section 6.1.3 shall continue at the rates set forth in Section 6.1.2
         through December 31, 2002 without regard to such Subsequent Decisions.

6.1.5    ITC/\DeltaCom hereby waives its rights under this Agreement as well as
         under Section 252(i) of the 1996 Act and applicable FCC regulations to
         elect rates, terms, and conditions from any other approved
         interconnection agreement executed by BellSouth as

         they relate to: (a) Local Interconnection arrangements described in
         Section 1 of Attachment 3 to this Agreement; (b) Multiple Tandem Access
         described in Section 3 of Attachment 3 to this Agreement; and (c)
         Interconnection Compensation described in Section 6 of Attachment 3 to
         this Agreement. Accordingly, during the term of this Agreement,
         ITC/\DeltaCom agrees that it will not seek to elect such rates, terms,
         or conditions from another interconnection agreement, regardless of
         when that interconnection agreement was entered into by BellSouth and
         regardless of when ITC/\DeltaCom became aware of the existence of such
         agreement. Nothing herein shall be construed as a waiver of
         ITC/\DeltaCom's rights to elect any rates, terms, and conditions to
         take effect after December 31, 2002.

6.1.6    The Parties recognize and agree that the compensation for the transport
         and termination of Local Traffic set forth in Section 6.1.2 and the
         inter-carrier compensation mechanism for ISP-bound traffic set forth in
         Section 6.1.3 are intended to allow each Party to recover costs
         associated with such traffic. The Parties agree to act in good faith in
         seeking compensation under Section 6.1.2 and Section 6.1.3 of this
         Agreement and to refrain from taking any action, whether directly or
         indirectly, for the primary purpose of generating compensation from the
         other Party. For example, the Parties recognize and agree that such
         compensation will not be billed and shall not be paid for a call placed
         by an end user customer, or placed on behalf of an end user customer,
         to establish or maintain a network connection if: (1) such call is not
         recognized by industry practice to constitute traffic (voice or data)
         which results from a telephone call; (2) the end user customer does not
         control the dialed number destination and content of that call; and (3)
         the primary purpose of that call is to generate the payment of
         compensation as a result of establishing or maintaining the network
         connection.

6.1.7    In Order No. PSC-00-0537-FOF-TP in Docket 990750-TP dated March 15,
         2000, the Florida Public Service Commission approved a reciprocal
         compensation rate of $.009 per minute of use for inclusion in the
         interconnection agreement between BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom. Upon
         BellSouth's motion for reconsideration, the Florida Commission directed
         that the Parties mediate their dispute over the appropriate reciprocal
         compensation rate. In consideration for the resolution of this dispute,
         BellSouth hereby agrees to prepay compensation to ITC/\DeltaCom for the
         Local Traffic to be transported and terminated to ITC/\DeltaCom and the
         ISP-bound traffic to be handled by ITC/\DeltaCom during 2001 and 2002
         based upon ITC/\DeltaCom's good-faith forecast of the amount of such
         traffic during this period. The compensation that BellSouth will prepay
         is Twenty Four Million Dollars ($24,000,000) for 2001 and an amount not
         to exceed Twenty Four Million Dollars ($24,000,000) for 2002. Such
         prepaid compensation is subject to the reconciliation process and the
         cap set forth in Sections 6.1.7.1, 6.1.7.2, and 6.1.7.3 respectively,
         and the change in control provision set forth in Section 6.1.7.4.

6.1.7.1  The prepayment of compensation pursuant to Section 6.1.7 shall not
         relieve ITC/\DeltaCom of the obligation to render monthly invoices to
         BellSouth reflecting the total minutes of Local Traffic transported and
         terminated to ITC/\DeltaCom and the minutes of ISP-bound traffic
         handled by ITC/\DeltaCom for which compensation is being sought from
         BellSouth. Not later than July 30, 2001, the Parties agree to review
         these

         invoices to verify the minutes of Local Traffic transported and
         terminated to ITC/\DeltaCom and the minutes of ISP-bound traffic
         handled by ITC/\DeltaCom during the first six months of 2001. A similar
         review will be conducted as soon as practicable in December 2001 for
         the preceding three month-period ("December 2001 Review"). Subsequent
         reviews will be conducted quarterly in 2002. As part of these reviews,
         ITC/\DeltaCom agrees to provide BellSouth upon request whatever
         information may be reasonably necessary to verify the minutes of use
         for which compensation is being sought from BellSouth. If, as a result
         of these reviews, the Parties determine that ITC/\DeltaCom's actual
         minutes of use for Local Traffic and ISP-bound traffic are below the
         forecasted amounts for such traffic, ITC/\DeltaCom will refund promptly
         to BellSouth the prepaid compensation attributable to the difference
         between the actual and forecasted minutes of use. If, as a result of
         these reviews, the Parties determine that ITC/\DeltaCom's actual
         minutes of use for Local Traffic and ISP-bound traffic exceed the
         forecasted amounts, BellSouth will pay promptly to ITC/\DeltaCom
         compensation attributable to the difference between the actual and
         forecasted minutes of use, subject to the cap set forth in Section
         6.1.7.3. Any dispute that may arise during this reconciliation process
         shall be handled pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures under
         this Agreement.

6.1.7.2  The specific amount of reciprocal compensation to be prepaid by
         BellSouth for the Local Traffic to be transported and terminated to
         ITC/\DeltaCom and the ISP-bound traffic to be handled by ITC/\DeltaCom
         during 2002 will be determined as a result of the December 2001 Review.
         As part of this review, the Parties will calculate the Prepayment
         Threshold by: (a) calculating the total minutes of use of Local Traffic
         and ISP-bound traffic originated by BellSouth for which ITC/\DeltaCom
         is seeking compensation during September, October, and November 2001;
         (b) multiplying these total minutes by the rate of $.0015 per minute of
         use; and (c) annualizing the results by applying a factor of four. If
         the Prepayment Threshold is equal to or exceeds Twenty One Million Six
         Hundred Thousand Dollars ($21,600,000), BellSouth will prepay
         compensation to ITC/\DeltaCom for the Local Traffic to be transported
         and terminated to ITC/\DeltaCom and the ISP-bound traffic to be handled
         by ITC/\DeltaCom during 2002 in the amount of Twenty Four Million
         Dollars ($24,000,000). If the Prepayment Threshold is less than Twenty
         One Million Six Hundred Thousand Dollars ($21,600,000), BellSouth will
         prepay compensation to ITC/\DeltaCom for the Local Traffic to be
         transported and terminated to ITC/\DeltaCom and the ISP-bound traffic
         to be handled by ITC/\DeltaCom during 2002 in the amount of the
         Prepayment Threshold.

6.1.7.3  Notwithstanding the prepayment of compensation by BellSouth and
         notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary,
         BellSouth's total liability for compensation to ITC/\DeltaCom for the
         transport and termination of Local Traffic and for the handling of
         ISP-bound traffic shall not exceed Twenty Seven Million and Five
         Hundred Thousand Dollars ($27,500,000) for 2001 and Twenty Nine Million
         and Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($29,500,000) for 2002. ITC/\DeltaCom
         agrees that once the cap has been met in a particular year that it will
         not seek to collect compensation from BellSouth, whether directly or
         indirectly, for the transport and termination of Local Traffic and for
         the handling of ISP-bound traffic. The Parties agree that no
         compensation will be due from

         BellSouth for resold services purchased by ITC/\DeltaCom from
         BellSouth, even if ITC/\DeltaCom purchases such services on behalf of
         or for the use of another entity, whether or not affiliated with
         ITC/\DeltaCom. Further, the Parties agree that no compensation will be
         due from ITC/\DeltaCom to BellSouth for transport and termination of
         Local Traffic over resold services.

6.1.7.4  DeltaCom hereby agrees that it will not dissolve, consolidate,
         reorganize, merge or sell all or substantially all of its stock or
         assets without the prior written consent of BellSouth, which consent
         shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event BellSouth consents to
         a dissolution of ITC/\DeltaCom, and prior to such dissolution taking
         effect, ITC/\DeltaCom shall reimburse BellSouth all unaccrued amounts
         of compensation prepaid by BellSouth pursuant to Section 6.1.7 as of
         the effective date of such dissolution. In the event BellSouth consents
         to a consolidation, reorganization or merger of ITC/\DeltaCom or an
         acquisition of all or substantially all of the stock or assets of
         ITC/\DeltaCom, BellSouth shall have the option to either continue
         pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or elect to be
         reimbursed by ITC/\DeltaCom or its successor interest for all unaccrued
         amounts of compensation prepaid by BellSouth pursuant to Section 6.1.7
         as of the effective date of such consolidation, reorganization, merger,
         or acquisition. In the event BellSouth elects to exercise its option of
         reimbursement as a result of consolidation, reorganization, merger or
         acquisition described herein, this Agreement shall be deemed amended as
         of the effective date of such consolidation, reorganization, merger, or
         acquisition to delete Section 6.1.7 in its entirety, such that: (a) the
         rates set forth in Section 6.1.2 for the transport and termination of
         Local Traffic and the delivery of ISP-bound traffic shall continue in
         effect for all applicable minutes of use during the applicable period
         of time following such consolidation, reorganization, merger, or
         acquisition; (b) compensation for such minutes of use shall be paid by
         BellSouth to such successor in interest to this Agreement based upon
         actual minutes of use during the applicable time period; and (c) the
         cap set forth in Section 6.1.7.3 shall be eliminated and of no effect.
         Prior to the effective date of any consolidation, reorganization,
         merger, or acquisition described herein, ITC/\DeltaCom shall take all
         necessary steps to bind its successor in interest to the terms of this
         Section.

6.1.7.5  However, in the event BellSouth does not consent to a ITC/\DeltaCom
         dissolution, consolidation, reorganization, merger or sale of all or
         substantially all of ITC/\DeltaCom's stock or assets, ITC/\DeltaCom may
         refund to BellSouth all unaccrued amounts prepaid to ITC/\DeltaCom as
         described in Section 6.1.7 and proceed with such dissolution,
         consolidation, reorganization, merger or sale of all or substantially
         all of ITC/\DeltaCom's stock or assets. However, in this event, this
         Agreement shall be deemed amended as of the effective date of such
         consolidation, reorganization, merger, or acquisition to delete Section
         6.1.7 in its entirety, such that: (a) the rates set forth in Section
         6.1.2 for the transport and termination of Local Traffic and the
         delivery of ISP-bound traffic shall continue in effect for all
         applicable minutes of use during the applicable period of time
         following such consolidation, reorganization, merger, or acquisition;
         (b) compensation for such minutes of use shall be paid by BellSouth to
         such successor in interest to this Agreement based upon actual minutes
         of use during the applicable time period; and (c) the cap set forth in
         Section 6.1.7.3 shall be eliminated and of no effect.

6.1.7.6  BellSouth may from time to time elect to apply a portion of the
         prepayment described in this Section against other amounts due from
         BellSouth to ITC/\DeltaCom for services provided by ITC/\DeltaCom to
         BellSouth between the date of this Agreement and December 31, 2002.
         BellSouth's election as described in this paragraph shall not affect
         BellSouth's obligation to pay in full all amounts when due for services
         provided to BellSouth by ITC/\DeltaCom, including, without limitation
         the obligation of payment of reciprocal compensation as provided in
         this Section 6.1.6 and subject to the terms and conditions set forth
         therein.

6.1.8    Neither Party shall represent switched access services traffic as Local
         Traffic for purposes of payment of reciprocal compensation.

6.1.9    Local traffic is defined in Section 6.1.1 as any call that originated
         and terminates within the same LATA and therefore is subject to
         reciprocal compensation. All other traffic including transit traffic is
         subject to switched access charges as defined by the parties'
         respective tariffs. Notwithstanding the above, any mandated local
         calling areas shall be subject to reciprocal compensation and not
         access charges

7.       TRANSMISSION AND ROUTING OF EXCHANGE ACCESS TRAFFIC

         The Parties shall jointly provide Tandem-transported Switched Exchange
         Access Services to Interexchange Carriers to enable such Interexchange
         Carriers to originate and terminate traffic from/to ITC/\DeltaCom's End
         Users, and to originate and terminate traffic to/from BellSouth's End
         Users.

8.0      NXX TRANSLATIONS IMPLEMENTATION

         It shall be the responsibility of each Party to program and update its
         switches and network systems pursuant to the local exchange routing
         guide (LERG) and other switched telecommunications industry guidelines
         to recognize and route traffic to the other Party's assigned NXX codes.
         Neither Party shall impose any fees or charges whatsoever on the other
         Party for such activities.

8.1      Testing and inputting of the translations in the BellSouth databases of
         ITC/\DeltaCom's NXXs' should be the same as BellSouth's own.

8.2.1    Each Party will translate NXXs according to industry guidelines,
         including the terminating LATA in which the NXXs/rate center is
         located.

8.3      The Parties will cooperate and implement industry solutions for number
         conservation, e.g. number pooling.

9.0      MEET-POINT BILLING ARRANGEMENTS

Florida
<PAGE>

ATTACHMENT 3                                                             PAGE 25

9.1      MEET-POINT BILLING

         When BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom provide an access service connection
         between an interexchange carrier ("IXC") and each other, each party
         will provide its own access services to the IXC on a multi-bill,
         multi-tariff meet-point basis. Each party will bill its own access
         services rates to the IXC with the exception of the interconnection
         charge. The interconnection charge will be billed by the party
         providing the end office function. The Parties will use the Multiple
         Exchange Carrier Access Billing guidelines to establish meet point
         billing for all applicable traffic, including traffic terminating to
         ported numbers. 30-day billing periods will be employed for these
         arrangements. The recording party agrees to provide to the initial
         billing company, at no charge, the switched access detailed usage data
         within no more than sixty (60) days after the recording date. The
         initial billing company will provide the switched access summary usage
         data to all subsequent billing companies within 10 days of rendering
         the initial bill to the IXC. Each company will notify the other when it
         is not feasible to meet these requirements so that the customers may be
         notified for any necessary revenue accrual associated with the
         significantly delayed recording or billing. As business requirements
         change data reporting requirements may be modified as necessary.

9.2      In the event that either Party fails to provide switched access
         detailed usage data to the other Party within 90 days after the
         recording date and the receiving Party is unable to bill and/or collect
         access revenues due to the sending Party's failure to provide such data
         within said time period, then the Party failing to send the data as
         specified herein shall be liable to the other Party in an amount equal
         to the unbillable or uncollectible revenues. Each Party will provide
         complete documentation to the other to substantiate any claim of
         unbillable access revenues. A negotiated settlement will be agreed upon
         between the Parties.

9.3      Each company will retain for a minimum period of sixty (60) days,
         access message detail sufficient to recreate any data which is lost or
         damaged by their company or any third party involved in processing or
         transporting data.

9.4      Each company agrees to recreate the lost or damaged data within five
         (5) days of notification by the other or by an authorized third party
         handling the data.

9.5      Each company also agrees to process the recreated data within five (5)
         days of receipt at its data processing center.

9.6      All claims should be filed with the other company with 120 days of the
         receipt of the date of the unbillable usage.

9.7      The Initial Billing Company shall keep records of its billing
         activities relating to jointly-provided Intrastate and Interstate
         access services in sufficient detail to permit the Subsequent Billing
         Company to, by formal or informal review or

         audit, to verify the accuracy and reasonableness of the
         jointly-provided access billing data provided by the Initial billing
         Company. Each company agrees to cooperate in such formal or informal
         reviews or audits and further agrees to jointly review the findings of
         such reviews or audits in order to resolve any differences concerning
         the findings thereof.

9.8  The billing percentages shall be calculated by the Parties according to one
     of the methodologies specified for such purposes in the MECAB document and
     filed by the Parties, if applicable, in the National Exchange Carrier
     Association ("NECA") FCC Tariff No. 4.

9.9      Switched Access Traffic shall be defined in accordance with either
         Party's Commision approved Access Tariffs.

10.      TRANSIT TRAFFIC SERVICE

10.1     Transit Traffic Service is defined as the tandem switching, transport
         and delivery by one Party of (1) Local Traffic, IntraLATA Toll Traffic
         and InterLATA Toll Traffic originated from the other Party and
         terminating to a third party carrier, and (2) Local Traffic, IntraLATA
         Toll Traffic and InterLATA Toll Traffic originated from a third party
         carrier and terminating to the other Party. The Parties shall provide
         Transit Traffic Service to ITC/\DeltaCom in accordance with this
         Section 10. Rates for Transit Traffic Service for Local Traffic shall
         be the applicable call transport and termination charges for Local
         Traffic, as set forth in Attachment 11 to this Agreement. Rates for
         Transit Traffic Service for IntraLATA Toll Traffic and InterLATA Toll
         Traffic (i.e., Switched Access Traffic) shall be the applicable call
         transport and termination charges as set forth in the providing Party's
         Intrastate or Interstate switched access tariff, as filed and effective
         with the FCC or appropriate State Commission. Billing associated with
         all Transit Traffic Service shall be pursuant to MECAB procedures.
         Wireless Type 1 traffic shall not be treated as transit traffic from a
         routing or billing perspective. Wireless Type 2A traffic from a third
         Party carrier to ITC/\DeltaCom shall not be treated as transit traffic
         from a routing or billing perspective until the transiting Party and
         the wireless carrier have the capability to meet point bill properly in
         accordance with MECAB guidelines. Where ITC/\DeltaCom has a direct
         connection (via a cross connect between collocation spaces in a
         BellSouth central office or otherwise) to a third party carrier,
         ITC/\DeltaCom and that third party carrier shall not utilize Transit
         Traffic Service from BellSouth.

10.2     The delivery of traffic originated by ITC/\DeltaCom which transits the
         BellSouth network and is transported to another carrier's network is
         excluded from any BellSouth billing guarantees and will be delivered at
         the rates as set forth in Attachment 11 to this Agreement.
         ITC/\DeltaCom is responsible for establishing any necessary agreements
         or the placement of any necessary valid orders with the terminating
         carrier for the receipt of this traffic through the BellSouth network.
         BellSouth will not be liable for any compensation to the terminating
         carrier as a result of providing Transit Traffic Service.

10.3     The Parties shall compensate each other for Transit Traffic Service as
         follows:

         10.3.1    For Local Traffic and IntraLATA Toll Traffic originating from
                   ITC/\DeltaCom that is delivered over the Transit Traffic
                   Service, ITC/\DeltaCom will pay to BellSouth the applicable
                   Tandem Switching and/or Interoffice Transport charges set
                   forth in Attachment 11 to the Agreement. Charges for services
                   provided by the Parties to a third party carrier(s) shall be
                   assessed on a meet point basis, consistent with the terms of
                   Section 9 hereof.

         10.3.2    Except as provided in Section 10.3.3 hereafter, transit
                   charges shall be assessed upon the originating carrier, and
                   shall not be imposed on the terminating carrier.

         10.3.3    Transit charges associated with the provision of toll-free
                   services (e.g. 800/888/877) shall be imposed upon the
                   terminating carrier and shall not be assessed on the
                   originating carrier.

11.0     PACKET SWITCHED NETWORK INTERCONNECTION/FRAME RELAY

         The Parties agree to interconnect their local data services networks
         for the exchange of Frame Relay Services ("FRS") traffic.

11.1     The following provisions will apply only to Frame Relay Service and
         Exchange Access Frame Relay Service in those states where traffic is
         being exchanged between ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth Frame Relay
         Switches in the same LATA.

11.1.1   The Parties agree to establish two-way Frame Relay facilities between
         their respective Frame Relay Switches to the mutually-agreed upon Frame
         Relay Service point(s) of interconnection ("POIs") within the LATA. All
         POIs shall be within the same Frame Relay Network Serving Area as
         defined in Section A40 of BellSouth's General Subscriber Services
         Tariff.

11.1.2   Upon the request of either Party, such interconnection will be
         established where BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom have Frame Relay Switches
         in the same LATA. Where there are multiple Frame Relay switches in the
         central office of a Party, an interconnection with any one of the
         switches will be considered an interconnection with all of the switches
         at that central office for purposes of routing packet traffic.

11.1.3   The Parties agree to provision local and IntraLATA Frame Relay Service
         and Exchange Access Frame Relay Service (both intrastate and
         interstate) over Frame Relay Trunks between the respective Frame Relay
         switches and the POIs.

11.1.4   The Parties agree to assess each other reciprocal charges for the
         facilities that each provides to the other according to the Percent
         Local Circuit Use ("PLCU") factor PLCU, determined as follows:

ATTACHMENT 3                                                             PAGE 28

                  (i) Frame Relay framed packet data is transported within
                  Virtual Circuits ("VC"). For the purposes of calculating the
                  PLCU, if all the data packets transported within a VC remain
                  within the LATA, then consistent with the local definitions in
                  this Agreement, the traffic on that VC is local ("Local VC").

                  (ii) If the originating and terminating locations of the two
                  way packet data traffic are not in the same LATA, the traffic
                  on that VC is interLATA.

                  (iii) The PLCU shall be determined by dividing the total
                  number of Local VCs, by the total number of VCs on each Frame
                  Relay facility at the end of the reporting period. The Parties
                  agree to renegotiate the method for determining PLCU, at
                  either Parties' request, and within 90 days, if either Party
                  notifies the other that it has found that this method does not
                  adequately represent the PLCU.

                  (iv) If there are no VCs on a facility when it is billed, the
                  PLCU will be zero.

11.1.5   BellSouth will provide the Frame Relay Trunk(s) between the Parties'
         respective Frame Relay Switches. The Parties will be compensated as
         follows- BellSouth will invoice, and ITC/\DeltaCom will pay, the total
         non-recurring and recurring charges for the trunk facility.
         ITC/\DeltaCom will then invoice, and BellSouth will pay, an amount
         calculated by multiplying the BellSouth billed charges for the trunk
         facility by one-half of ITC/\DeltaCom's PLCU.

11.1.16  Each Party will provide a Frame Relay network-to-network interface
         ("NNI") port to the other Party for each trunk facility provided
         pursuant to 11.1.5 above. Compensation for NNI ports shall be based
         upon the NNI rates set forth in the BellSouth F.C.C Tariff No. 1.
         Pursuant to that tariff, ITC/\DeltaCom may select a month-to-month or
         term rate structure for the NNI ports BellSouth provides to
         ITC/\DeltaCom. Whatever rate structure ITC/\DeltaCom selects shall be
         deemed to be the same rate structure that applies to the NNI port
         ITC/\DeltaCom provides to BellSouth. There shall be no termination
         liability to either party for the local portion of the NNI port as
         determined by the ITC/\DeltaCom PLCU at the time of termination.

11.1.7   Compensation for the NNI ports shall be calculated as follows:

         11.1.7.1   For NNI ports provided by BellSouth to ITC/\DeltaCom,
                    BellSouth will invoice, and ITC/\DeltaCom will pay, the
                    total nonrecurring and recurring charges for the NNI port.
                    ITC/\DeltaCom will then invoice, and BellSouth will pay, an
                    amount calculated by

ATTACHMENT 3                                                             PAGE 29

                    multiplying the BellSouth billed non-recurring and recurring
                    charges for the NNI port by one-half of ITC/\DeltaCom's
                    PLCU.

         11.1.7.2   For NNI ports provided by ITC/\DeltaCom to BellSouth,
                    ITC/\DeltaCom will invoice, and BellSouth will pay, the
                    total non-recurring and recurring charges for the NNI port.
                    BellSouth will then invoice, and ITC/\DeltaCom will pay, an
                    amount determined as follows: ITC/\DeltaCom's combined
                    interLATA and local usage will be calculated by subtracting
                    one-half of ITC/\DeltaCom's PLCU factor from one hundred
                    percent. The difference will then be multiplied by the total
                    charges initially billed by ITC/\DeltaCom for the NNI port.
                    BellSouth will then invoice, and ITC/\DeltaCom will pay,
                    this amount to BellSouth.

11.1.8   A Permanent Virtual Circuit ("PVC") is a logical channel from a frame
         relay network interface (e.g., NNI or User Network Interface) to
         another frame relay network interface. A PVC is created when a Data
         Link Channel Identifier ("DLCI") is mapped together with another DLCI.
         Neither Party will charge the other Party any DLCI or Committed
         Information Rate ("CIR") charges for the PVC from its Frame Relay
         switch to its own subscriber's premises.

11.1.9    For the PVC between the ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth Frame Relay
          switches, compensation for the DLCI and CIR charges are based upon the
          rates in the BellSouth FCC Tariff No. 1. Compensation for PVC and CIR
          rate elements shall be calculated as follows:

11.1.10   For PVCs between the BellSouth Frame Relay switch and the
          ITC/\DeltaCom Frame Relay switch, BellSouth will invoice, and
          ITC/\DeltaCom will pay, the total nonrecurring and recurring DLCI and
          CIR charges. If the VC is a Local VC, ITC/\DeltaCom will invoice and
          BellSouth will pay, 100% of the DLCI and CIR charges initially billed
          by BellSouth for that PVC. If the VC is not local, no compensation
          will be paid to ITC/\DeltaCom for the PVC.

11.1.11   Each Party will compensate the other Party for any applicable Feature
          Change or Transfer of Service Charges as set forth in BellSouth's
          Tariff F.C.C. No. 1. The Parties agree to limit the sum of the CIR for
          the VCs on a given NNI port to not more than two times the port speed.

11.1.12   Except as expressly provided herein, this Agreement does not address
          or alter in any way either Party's provision of Exchange Access Frame
          Relay Service or interLATA Frame Relay Service. All charges by each
          Party to the other for carriage of Exchange Access Frame Relay Service
          or interLATA Frame Relay Service are included in the BellSouth access
          tariffs.

11.1.13   Until such time as BellSouth obtains authority to provide in-region,
          interLATA service, ITC/\DeltaCom will identify and report its PLCU to
          BellSouth on a quarterly basis.

11.1.14   Either Party may request a review or audit of the various service
          components, including but not limited to a Party's determination of
          its PLCU, consistent with the provisions of section E2 of the
          BellSouth State Access Services tariffs or Section 2 of the BellSouth
          FCC No. 1 Tariff.

11.1.15   If during the term of this Agreement, BellSouth obtains authority to
          provide in-region, interLATA service, the Parties shall renegotiate
          the provisions of Section 11.1.5, 11.1.7, 11.1.8-11.1.10, and 11.1.13
          to account for BellSouth's PLCU. In the event the parties are unable
          to reach agreement within one hundred eighty (180) days of the date
          BellSouth receives interLATA authority, the matter shall be resolved
          pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions set forth in this
          agreement.

11.1.16   If during the term of this Agreement, BellSouth makes available, to an
          affiliate or any other telecommunications carrier, Frame Relay
          interconnection on rates, terms and conditions different than those
          provided for in this Section 11, then ITC/\DeltaCom shall be entitled,
          at its option, to replace any part of this Section 11 with such rates,
          terms, and conditions.

  BellSouth hereby grants ITC/\DeltaCom a right to occupy that certain area
  designated by BellSouth within a BellSouth Central Office premises of a
  size which is specified by ITC/\DeltaCom and agreed to by BellSouth
  (hereinafter "Collocation Space"), Notwithstanding the foregoing, BellSouth
  shall consider in its designation for cageless collocation any unused space
  within the BellSouth central office premises. The size specified by
  ITC/\DeltaCom may contemplate a request for space sufficient to accommodate
  ITC/\DeltaCom's growth within a two year period unless otherwise agreed to
  by the Parties.

          1.2.1 SPACE RECLAMATION. In the event of space exhaust
  within a central office premises, and applicable only to those physical
  collocation arrangements applied for subsequent to the execution of this
  Agreement, ITC/\DeltaCom may be required to release space to BellSouth to be
  allocated to other physical collocation applicants when a minimum of 50%
  percent of the total amount of space in ITC/\DeltaCom's collocation
  arrangement is not being reasonably utilized within the first year of
  operation, or 100% of the total amount of space by the end of the second
  year of operation. ITC/\DeltaCom shall release space to BellSouth to be
  allocated to other physical collocation applicants when a minimum of fifty
  percent of the total amount of space in ITC/\DeltaCom's collocation
  arrangement is not being utilized within the first year of operation, or
  100% of the total amount of space by the end of the second year of
  operation. For those physical collocation arrangements existing or applied
  for prior to the execution of this Agreement, ITC/\DeltaCom may be required
  to release space to BellSouth to be allocated to other physical collocation
  applicants when 100% of the total amount of space in the collocation
  arrangement is not reasonably utilized by the end of the second year of
  operation. ITC/\DeltaCom will first have the option of subleasing any amount
  of space not being utilized pursuant to this subsection in lieu of
  releasing space to BellSouth.

      1.3 USE OF SPACE. ITC/\DeltaCom shall use the Collocation Space for
  the purposes of installing, maintaining and operating ITC/\DeltaCom's
  equipment (to include testing and monitoring equipment) which is used or

  ITC/\DeltaCom to have direct access to its equipment and facilities but may
  require ITC/\DeltaCom to use a central entrance to the BellSouth Central
  Office. BellSouth shall make cageless collocation available in single bay
  increments pursuant to Section 7. Except where ITC/\DeltaCom's equipment
  requires special technical considerations (e.g., special cable racking,
  isolated ground plane), BellSouth shall assign cageless Collocation Space
  in conventional equipment rack lineups where feasible. For equipment
  requiring special technical considerations, ITC/\DeltaCom must provide the
  equipment layout, including spatial dimensions for such equipment pursuant
  to generic requirements contained in BellCore (Telcordia) GR-63-Core and
  shall be responsible for constructing all special technical requirements
  associated with such equipment pursuant to Section 6.5 following.

      3.2 CAGES AND ADJACENT ARRANGEMENT ENCLOSURES. BellSouth shall
  authorize the enclosure of ITC/\DeltaCom's equipment and facilities at
  ITC/\DeltaCom's option or if required by local building code. ITC/\DeltaCom
  must arrange with a BellSouth certified contractor to construct a
  collocation arrangement enclosure in accordance with BellSouth's guidelines
  and specifications and at its sole expense. BellSouth will provide
  guidelines and specifications upon request. Where local building codes
  require enclosure specifications more stringent than BellSouth's standard
  enclosure specification, ITC/\DeltaCom and ITC/\DeltaCom's BellSouth
  certified contractor must comply with local building code requirements.
  ITC/\DeltaCom's BellSouth certified contractor shall be responsible for
  filing and receiving any and all necessary permits and/or licenses for such
  construction. The Certified Vendor shall bill ITC/\DeltaCom directly for all
  work performed for ITC/\DeltaCom pursuant to this Agreement and BellSouth
  shall have no liability for nor responsibility to pay such charges imposed
  by the Certified Vendor. ITC/\DeltaCom must provide the local BellSouth
  building contact with two Access Keys used to enter the locked enclosure.
  Except in case of emergency, BellSouth will not access ITC/\DeltaCom's
  locked enclosure prior to notifying ITC/\DeltaCom.

          3.2.1 BellSouth has the right to review ITC/\DeltaCom's
  plans and specifications prior to allowing construction to start, BellSouth
  has the right to inspect the

  enclosure after construction to make sure it is designed and constructed
  according to BellSouth's guidelines and specifications and to require
  ITC/\DeltaCom to remove or correct at ITC/\DeltaCom's cost any structure
  that does not meet these standards.

      3.3 SHARED (SUBLEASED) CAGED COLLOCATION. ITC/\DeltaCom may allow
  other telecommunications carriers to share ITC/\DeltaCom's caged collocation
  arrangement pursuant to terms and conditions agreed to by ITC/\DeltaCom
  ("Host") and other telecommunications carriers ("Guests") and pursuant to
  this section with the following exceptions: (1) where local building code
  does not allow Shared (Subleased) Caged Collocation and (2) where the
  BellSouth central office premises is located within a leased space and
  BellSouth is prohibited by said lease from offering such an option. The
  terms and conditions of the agreement between the Host and its Guests shall
  be written and a copy provided to the BellSouth contact specified in
  Section 15 within ten (10) business days of its execution and prior to any
  Firm Order. Further, said agreement shall incorporate by reference the
  rates, terms, and conditions of this Agreement between BellSouth and
  ITC/\DeltaCom.

          3.3.1 ITC/\DeltaCom shall be the sole interface and
  responsible party to BellSouth for the purpose of submitting applications
  for initial and additional equipment placements of Guest; for assessment of
  rates and charges contained within this Agreement; and for the purposes of
  ensuring that the safety and security requirements of this Agreement are
  fully complied with by the Guest, its employees and agents. The initial
  Guest application shall require the assessment of an Application Fee, as
  set forth in Exhibit A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Guest may arrange
  directly with BellSouth for the provision of the interconnecting facilities
  between BellSouth and Guest and for the provisions of the services and
  access to unbundled network elements.

          3.3.2 ITC/\DeltaCom shall indemnify and hold harmless
  BellSouth from any and all claims, actions, causes of action, of whatever
  kind or nature arising out of the presence of ITC/\DeltaCom's Guests in the
  Collocation Space.

      3.4 ADJACENT COLLOCATION. BellSouth will provide adjacent
  collocation arrangements ("Adjacent Arrangement") where space within the
  Central Office is legitimately exhausted, subject to technical feasibility,
  where the Adjacent Arrangement does not interfere with access to existing
  or planned structures or facilities on the Central Office property and
  where permitted by zoning and other applicable state and local regulations.
  The Adjacent Arrangement shall be constructed or procured by ITC/\DeltaCom
  and in conformance with BellSouth's design and construction specifications.
  Further, ITC/\DeltaCom shall construct, procure, maintain and operate said
  Adjacent Arrangement(s) pursuant to all of the terms and conditions set
  forth in this Agreement. Rates shall be negotiated at the time of the
  request for Adjacent Collocation.

          3.4.1 Should ITC/\DeltaCom elect such option, ITC/\DeltaCom
  must arrange with a BellSouth certified contractor to construct an Adjacent
  Arrangement structure in accordance with BellSouth's guidelines and

  ITC/\DeltaCom must provide the local BellSouth building contact with two
  cards, keys or other access device used to enter the locked enclosure.
  Except in cases of emergency, BellSouth shall not access ITC/\DeltaCom's
  locked enclosure prior to notifying ITC/\DeltaCom.

          3.4.2 BellSouth maintains the right to review
  ITC/\DeltaCom's plans and specifications prior to construction of an
  Adjacent Arrangement(s). BellSouth may inspect the Adjacent Arrangement(s)
  following construction and prior to commencement, as defined in Section
  4.1 following, to ensure the design and construction comply with
  BellSouth's guidelines and specifications. BellSouth may require
  ITC/\DeltaCom, at ITC/\DeltaCom's sole cost, to correct any deviations from
  BellSouth's guidelines and specifications found during such inspection(s),
  up to and including removal of the Adjacent Arrangement, within five (5)
  business days of BellSouth's inspection, unless the Parties mutually agree
  to an alternative time frame.

          3.4.3 ITC/\DeltaCom shall provide a concrete pad, the
  structure housing the arrangement, HVAC, lighting, and all facilities that
  connect the structure (i.e. racking, conduits, etc.) to the BellSouth point

  Collocation within an Adjacent Arrangement pursuant to the terms and
  conditions set forth in Section 3.3 proceeding.

  4.      OCCUPANCY

      4.1 COMMENCEMENT DATE. The "Commencement Date" shall be the day
  ITC/\DeltaCom's equipment becomes operational as described in Section 4.2.
  following.

      4.2 OCCUPANCY. BellSouth will notify ITC/\DeltaCom in writing that
  the Collocation Space is ready for occupancy. ITC/\DeltaCom must place
  operational telecommunications equipment in the Collocation Space and
  connect with BellSouth's network within one hundred eighty (180) days after
  receipt of such notice. ITC/\DeltaCom must notify BellSouth in writing that
  collocation equipment installation is complete and is operational with
  BellSouth's network. BellSouth may, at its option not complete orders for
  interconnected service until receipt of such notice. BellSouth may consent
  to an extension beyond 180 days upon a demonstration by ITC/\DeltaCom that
  circumstances beyond its reasonable control prevented ITC/\DeltaCom from
  completing installation by the prescribed date. If lTC/\DeItaCom fails to
  place operational telecommunications equipment in the Collocation Space
  within 180 days and such failure continues for a period of thirty (30) days
  after receipt of written notice from BellSouth, then and in that event
  ITC/\DeltaCom's right to occupy the Collocation Space terminates and
  BellSouth shall have no further obligations to ITC/\DeltaCom with respect to
  said Collocation Space. Termination of ITC/\DeltaCom's rights to the
  Collocation Space pursuant to this paragraph shall not operate to release
  ITC/\DeltaCom from its obligation to reimburse BellSouth for all costs
  reasonably incurred by BellSouth in preparing the Collocation Space, but
  rather such obligation shall survive this Agreement. For purposes of this
  paragraph, ITC/\DeltaCom's telecommunications equipment will be deemed
  operational when cross-connected to BellSouth's network for the purpose of

  least two such interconnection points available and where capacity exists.
  Upon receipt of a request for physical collocation under this Agreement,
  BellSouth shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom with information regarding BellSouth's
  capacity to accommodate dual entrance facilities. If conduit in the serving
  manhole(s) is available and is not reserved for another purpose for
  utilization within 12 months of the receipt of an application for
  collocation, BellSouth will make the requested conduit space available for
  installing a second entrance facility to ITC/\DeltaCom's arrangement. The
  location of the serving manhole(s) will be determined at the sole
  discretion of BellSouth. Where dual entrance is not available due to lack
  of capacity, BellSouth will so state in the Application Response.

          5.2.2 SHARED USE. ITC/\DeltaCom may utilize spare capacity
  on an existing lnterconnector entrance facility for the purpose of
  providing an entrance facility to another ITC/\DeltaCom collocation
  arrangement within the same BellSouth Central Office. ITC/\DeltaCom must
  arrange with BellSouth for BellSouth to splice the utilized entrance
  facility capacity to ITC/\DeltaCom-provided riser cable.

      5.3 SPLICING IN THE ENTRANCE MANHOLE. Although not generally
  permitted, should ITC/\DeltaCom request a splice to occur in the entrance
  manhole(s), BellSouth, at its sole discretion, may grant such a request,
  provided that BellSouth will not unreasonably withhold approval of
  requests to make such a splice. When the request for a splice is granted
  to ITC/\DeltaCom by BellSouth, ITC/\DeltaCom shall ensure its employees or
  agents entering and/or performing work in the entrance manhole(s) are
  trained and comply with BellSouth procedures and OSHA requirements
  regarding access to manholes and that BellSouth personnel are notified and
  present for all entrances and work performed in the entrance manhole(s).
  Manhole covers shall be properly closed and secured at the conclusion of
  entry and/or work. Advance notification to BellSouth shall occur at a
  minimum of 48 hours prior to desired entry for normal work activities and
  at a minimum of 2 hours prior to desired entry in an out of service
  condition.

      5.4 DEMARCATION POINT. BellSouth will designate the point(s) of
  interconnection between ITC/\DeltaCom's equipment and/or network and
  BellSouth's network. Each party will be responsible for maintenance and
  operation of all equipment/facilities on its side of the demarcation
  point. For 2-wire and 4-wire connections to BellSouth's network, the
  demarcation point shall be a common block on the BellSouth designated
  conventional distributing frame. ITC/\DeltaCom shall be responsible for

  provisioning interval will not start until the re-evaluation and response
  to the change(s) is complete and the Bona Fide Firm Order is received by
  BellSouth and all appropriate fees and duties have been executed. If
  BellSouth needs to reevaluate ITC/\DeltaCom's application as a result of
  changes requested by ITC/\DeltaCom to ITC/\DeltaCom's original application,
  then BellSouth will charge ITC/\DeltaCom a fee based upon the additional
  engineering hours required to do the reassessment. Major changes such as
  requesting additional space or adding additional equipment may require
  ITC/\DeltaCom to resubmit the application with an application fee.

          6.3.1 BellSouth will establish a firm order date, per
  request, based upon the date BellSouth is in receipt of a Bona Fide Firm

       6.7 BASIC TELEPHONE SERVICE. Upon request of ITC/\DeltaCom,
  BellSouth will provide basic telephone service to the Collocation Space
  under the rates, terms and conditions of the current tariff offering for
  the service requested.

       6.8 SPACE PREPARATION. BellSouth shall pro rate the costs of any
  renovation or upgrade to Central Office space or support mechanisms which
  is required to accommodate physical collocation. ITC/\DeltaCom's pro rated
  share will be calculated by multiplying such cost by a percentage equal to
  the amount of square footage occupied by ITC/\DeltaCom divided by the total
  Central Office square footage receiving renovation or upgrade. For this
  section, support mechanisms provided by BellSouth may include, but not be
  limited to heating/ventilation/air conditioning (HVAC) equipment, HVAC
  duct work, cable support structure, fire wall(s), mechanical upgrade,
  asbestos abatement, or ground plane addition. Such renovation or upgrade
  will be evaluated and the charges assessed on a per Central Office basis.
  BellSouth will reimburse ITC/\DeltaCom in an amount equal to ITC/\DeltaCom
  reasonable, demonstrative and mitigated expenditures incurred as a direct
  result of delays to the completion and turnover dates caused by BellSouth.

       6.9 VIRTUAL COLLOCATION TRANSITION. BellSouth offers Virtual
  Collocation pursuant to the rates, terms and conditions set forth in its
  F.C.C. Tariff No. 1. For the interconnection to BellSouth's network and
  access to BellSouth unbundled network elements, ITC/\DeltaCom may purchase
  2-wire and 4-wire Cross-Connects as set forth in Exhibit A, and
  ITC/\DeltaCom may place within its Virtual Collocation arrangements the
  telecommunications equipment set forth in Section 5.1. In the event
  physical collocation space was previously denied at a location due to
  technical reasons or space limitations, and that physical collocation
  space has subsequently become available, ITC/\DeltaCom may transition its
  virtual collocation arrangements to physical collocation arrangements and
  pay the appropriate non-recurring fees for physical collocation and for
  the rearrangement or reconfiguration of services terminated in the virtual
  collocation arrangement. In the event that BellSouth knows when additional
  space for physical collocation may become available at the location
  requested by ITC/\DeltaCom, such information will be provided to
  ITC/\DeItaCom in BellSouth's written denial of physical collocation. To the
  extent that (i) physical collocation space becomes available to
  ITC/\DeltaCom within 180 days of BellSouth's written denial of
  ITC/\DeItaCom's request for physical collocation, and (ii) ITC/\DeltaCom was
  not informed in the written denial that physical collocation space would
  become available within such 180 days, then ITC/\DeltaCom may transition
  its virtual collocation arrangement to a physical collocation arrangement
  and will receive a credit for any nonrecurring charges previously paid for
  such virtual collocation credit for any ITC/\DeltaCom must arrange with a
  BellSouth certified vendor for the relocation of equipment from its
  virtual collocation space to its physical collocation space and will bear
  the cost of such relocation.

       6.10 CANCELLATION. If, at anytime, ITC/\DeltaCom cancels its order
  for the Collocation Space(s), ITC/\DeltaCom will reimburse BellSouth for
  any expenses incurred up to the date that written notice of the
  cancellation is received. In no event will the level of reimbursement
  under this paragraph exceed the maximum amount ITC/\DeltaCom would have
  otherwise paid for work undertaken by BellSouth if no cancellation of the
  order had occurred.

       6.11 LICENSES. ITC/\DeltaCom, at its own expense, will be solely
  responsible for obtaining from governmental authorities, and any other
  appropriate agency, entity, or person, all rights, privileges, and
  licenses necessary or required to operate as a provider of
  telecommunications services to the public or to occupy the Collocation
  Space.

                                     14

       7.1 NON-RECURRING FEES. In addition to the Application Fee
  referenced in Section 6, preceding, ITC/\DeltaCom shall remit payment of a
  Cable Installation Fee and one-half (1/2) of the estimated Space
  Preparation Fee, as applicable, coincident with submission of a Bona Fide
  Firm Order. The outstanding balance of the actual Space Preparation Fee
  shall be due thirty (30) calendar days following ITC/\DeltaCom's receipt of
  a bill or invoice from BellSouth. Once the installation of the initial
  equipment arrangement is complete, a subsequent application fee may apply
  (as described in Subsection 7.4), when ITC/\DeltaCom requests a
  modification to the arrangement.

       7.2 DOCUMENTATION. BellSouth shall provide documentation to
  establish the actual Space Preparation Fee. The Space Preparation Fee will
  be pro rated as prescribed in Section 6, preceding.

       7.3 CABLE INSTALLATION. Cable Installation Fee(s) are assessed
  per entrance fiber placed.

       7.4 FLOOR SPACE. The floor space charge includes reasonable
  charges for lighting, heat, air conditioning, ventilation and other
  allocated expenses associated with maintenance of the Central Office but
  does not include amperage necessary to power ITC/\DeItaCom's equipment.
  When the Collocation Space is enclosed, ITC/\DeltaCom shall pay floor space
  charges based upon the number of square feet so enclosed. When the
  Collocation Space is not enclosed, ITC/\DeItaCom shall pay floor space
  charges based upon the following floor space calculation: [(depth of the
  equipment lineup in which the rack is placed) + (0.5 x maintenance aisle
  depth) + (0.5 x wiring aisle depth)] X (width of rack and spacers). For
  purposes of this calculation, the depth of the equipment lineup shall
  consider the footprint of equipment racks plus any equipment overhang.
  BellSouth will assign unenclosed Collocation Space in conventional
  equipment rack lineups where feasible. In the event ITC/\DeltaCom's
  collocated equipment requires special cable racking, isolated grounding or
  other treatment which prevents placement within conventional equipment
  rack lineups, ITC/\DeltaCom shall be required to request an amount of floor
  space sufficient to accommodate the total equipment arrangement. Floor
  space charges are due beginning with the date on which BellSouth releases
  the Collocation Space for occupancy or on the date ITC/\DeltaCom first
  occupies the Collocation Space, whichever is sooner.

       7.5 POWER. BellSouth shall supply --48 Volt (-48V) DC power for
  ITC/\DeltaCom's Collocation Space within the central office premises and
  shall make available AC power at ITC/\DeltaCom's option for Adjacent
  Arrangement collocation.

           7.5.1 Charges for -48V DC power will be assessed per
  ampere per month based upon the certified vendor engineered and installed
  power feed fused ampere capacity. Rates include redundant feeder fuse
  positions (A&B) and cable rack to ITC/\DeltaCom's equipment or space
  enclosure. When obtaining power from a BellSouth Battery Distribution Fuse
  Bay, fuses and power cables (A&B) must be engineered (sized), furnished
  and installed by ITC/\DeltaCom's certified vendor. When obtaining power
  from a BellSouth Power Board, power cables (A&B) must be engineered
  (sized), furnished and installed by ITC/\DeltaCom's certified power vendor.
  ITC/\DeltaCom's certified vendor must also provide a copy of the
  engineering power specification prior to the Commencement Date. In the
  event BellSouth shall be required to construct additional DC power plant
  or upgrade the existing DC power plant in a Central Office as a result of
  ITC/\DeltaCom's request to collocate in that Central Office ("Power

  Plant Construction"), ITC/\DeltaCom shall pay its pro-rata share of costs
  associated with the Power Plant Construction. The determination of whether
  Power Plant Construction is necessary shall be within BellSouth's sole,
  but reasonable, discretion. BellSouth shall comply with all BellCore
  (Telcordia) and ANSI Standards regarding power cabling, including BellCore
  (Telcordia) Network Equipment Building System (NEBS) StandardGR-63-CORE.
  BellSouth will notify ITC/\DeltaCom of the need for the Power Plant
  Construction and will estimate the costs associated with the Power Plant
  Construction if BellSouth were to perform the Power Plant Construction.
  The costs of power plant construction shall be pro-rated and shared among
  all who benefit from that construction. ITC/\DeltaCom shall pay BellSouth
  one-half of its prorata share of the estimated Power Plant Construction
  costs prior to commencement of the work. ITC/\DeltaCom shall pay BellSouth
  the balance due (actual cost less one-half of the estimated cost) within
  thirty (30) days of completion of the Power Plant Construction.
  ITC/\DeltaCom has the option to perform the Power Plant Construction
  itself; provided, however, that such work shall be performed by a
  BellSouth certified contractor and such contractor shall comply with
  BellSouth's guidelines and specifications. Where the Power Plant
  Construction results in construction of a new power plant room, upon
  termination of this Agreement ITC/\DeltaCom shall have the right to remove
  its equipment from the power plant room, but shall otherwise leave the
  room intact. Where the Power Plant Construction results in an upgrade to
  BellSouth's existing power plant, upon termination of this Attachment,
  such upgrades shall become the property of BellSouth.

           7.5.2 Charges for AC power will be assessed per breaker
  ampere per month based upon the certified vendor engineered and installed
  power feed fused ampere capacity. Rates include the provision of
  commercial and standby AC power. When obtaining power from a BellSouth
  Distribution Fuse Bay, Power Board or Service Panel, fuses and power
  cables must be engineered (sized), furnished and installed by
  ITC/\DeltaCom's certified vendor. ITC/\DeltaCom's certified vendor must also
  provide a copy of the engineering power specification prior to the
  Commencement Date. Charges for AC power shall be assessed pursuant to the
  rates specified in Exhibit A. AC power voltage and phase ratings shall be
  determined on a per location basis.

       7.6 SECURITY ESCORT. A security escort will be required as set
  forth in Section 5.8. ITC/\DeltaComRates for a security escort are assessed
  in one-half (1/2) hour increments according to the schedule appended
  hereto as Exhibit A.

       7.7 RATE "TRUE-UP." The Parties agree that the prices reflected
  as interim herein shall be "trued-up" (up or down) based on final prices
  either determined by further agreement or by an effective order, in a
  proceeding involving BellSouth before the regulatory authority for the
  state in which the services are being performed or any other body having
  jurisdiction over this agreement (hereinafter "Commission"). Under the
  "true-up" process, the interim price for each service shall be multiplied
  by the volume of that service purchased to arrive at the total interim
  amount paid for that service ("Total Interim Price"). The final price for
  that service shall be multiplied by the volume purchased to arrive at the
  total final amount due ("Total Final Price"). The Total Interim Price
  shall be compared with the Total Final Price. If the Total Final Price is
  more than the Total Interim Price, ITC/\DeltaCom shall pay the difference
  to BellSouth. If the Total Final Price is less than the Total Interim
  Price, BellSouth shall pay the difference to ITC/\DeltaCom. Each party
  shall keep its own records upon which a "true-up" can be based and any
  final payment from one party to the other shall be in an amount agreed
  upon by the Parties based on such records. In the event of any
  disagreement as between the records or

  the Parties regarding the amount of such "true-up," the Parties agree that
  the Commission shall be called upon to resolve such differences.

       7.8 OTHER. If no rate is identified in the contract, the rate for
  the specific service or function will be negotiated by the parties upon
  request by either party. Payment of all other charges under this Agreement
  shall be due thirty (30) days after receipt of the bill (payment due
  date). ITC/\DeltaCom will pay a late payment charge of one and one-half
  percent (1-1/2%) assessed monthly on any balance which remains unpaid
  after the payment due date.

  8.      INSURANCE

       8.1 ITC/\DeltaCom shall, at its sole cost and expense, procure,
  maintain, and keep in force insurance as specified in this Article VI and
  underwritten by insurance companies licensed to do business in the states

           Birmingham, Alabama 35203

       8.6 ITC/\DeltaCom must conform to recommendations made by
  BellSouth's fire insurance company to the extent BellSouth has agreed to,
  or shall hereafter agree to, such recommendations.

       8.7 Failure to comply with the provisions of this Section will be
  deemed a material breach of this Agreement.

  9.      MECHANICS LIENS

       9.1 If any mechanics lien or other liens shall be filed against
  property of either party (BellSouth or ITC/\DeltaCom), or any improvement
  thereon by reason of or arising out of any labor or materials furnished or
  alleged to have been furnished or to be furnished to or for the other
  party or by reason of any changes, or additions to said property made at

  employees and agents with picture identification which must be worn and
  visible at all times while in the Collocation Space or other areas in or
  around the Central Office. The photo Identification card shall bear, at a
  minimum, the employee's name and photo, and the ITC/\DeltaCom name.
  BellSouth reserves the right to remove from its premises any employee of
  ITC/\DeltaCom not possessing identification issued by ITC/\DeltaCom.
  ITC/\DeltaCom shall hold BellSouth harmless for any damages resulting from
  such removal of its personnel from BellSouth premises. ITC/\DeltaCom shall
  be solely responsible for ensuring that any Guest of ITC/\DeltaCom is in
  compliance with all subsections of this Section 11.

           11.1.1 ITC/\DeltaCom will be required, at its own expense,
       to conduct a statewide investigation of criminal history records
       for each ITC/\DeltaCom employee being considered for work on the
       BellSouth Central Office, for the states/counties where the
       ITC/\DeltaCom employee has worked and lived for the past five
       years. Such investigation shall cover the period five years prior
       to the date of investigation. The investigation will be required
       prior to issuance of an Access Key to gain entry into the
       BellSouth Central Office(s) and shall be no more than three
       months old as of the date upon which issuance of an Access Key
       for such employee is required. Where state law does not permit
       statewide collection or reporting, an investigation of the
       applicable counties is acceptable.

           11.1.2 ITC/\DeltaCom will be required to administer to
  their personnel assigned to the BellSouth Central Office security training
  either provided by BellSouth, or meeting criteria defined by BellSouth.

           11.1.3 ITC/\DeltaCom shall not assign to the BellSouth

  any misdemeanor conviction, ITC/\DeltaCom may, in the alternative, certify
  to BellSouth that it shall not assign to the BellSouth Central Office any
  personnel with records of misdemeanor convictions (other than traffic
  offenses).

           11.1.4 For each ITC/\DeltaCom employee requiring access
  to a BellSouth Central Office pursuant to this agreement, ITC/\DeltaCom
  shall furnish BellSouth, prior to an employee gaining such access, a
  notarized affidavit certifying that the aforementioned background check
  and security training were completed. The affidavit will contain a
  statement certifying no felony convictions were found and certifying that
  the security training was completed by the employee. If the employee's
  criminal history includes misdemeanor convictions, ITC/\DeltaCom will
  disclose the nature of the convictions to BellSouth at that time, or, if
  ITC/\DeltaCom so chooses in accordance with Section 11.1.3 above,
  ITC/\DeltaCom may certify in the aforementioned affidavit that no
  misdemeanor convictions were found.

           11.1.5 At BellSouth's request, ITC/\DeltaCom shall
  promptly remove from the BellSouth's premises any employee of ITC/\DeltaCom
  BellSouth does not wish to grant access to its premises pursuant to any

       11.2 NOTIFICATION TO BELLSOUTH. BellSouth reserves the right to
  interview ITC/\DeltaCom's employees, agents or contractors in the event of
  wrongdoing in or around BellSouths property or involving BellSouth's or
  another CLEC's property or personnel, provided that BellSouth shall
  provide 24 hours notice (or such shorter notice as may be agreed by the
  parties as reasonable under the circumstances) to ITC/\DeltaCom's Security
  contact of such interview. ITC/\DeltaCom and its contractors shall
  reasonably cooperate with BellSouth's investigation into allegations of
  wrongdoing or criminal conduct committed by, witnessed by or involving
  ITC/\DeltaCom's employees, agents, or contractors. Additionally, BellSouth
  reserves the right to bill ITC/\DeltaCom for all reasonable costs
  associated with investigations involving its employees, agents, or
  contractors if it is established and mutually agreed in good faith that
  ITC/\DeltaCom's employees, agents, or contractors are responsible for the
  alleged act. BellSouth shall bill ITC/\DeltaCom for BellSouth property
  which is stolen or damaged where an investigation determines the
  culpability of ITC/\DeltaCom employees, agents, or contractors and
  ITC/\DeltaCom agrees, in good faith, with the results of such
  investigation. ITC/\DeltaCom shall notify BellSouth in writing immediately
  in the event that ITC/\DeltaCom discovers one of its employees already
  working on the BellSouth central office premises is a possible security
  risk. BellSouth reserves the right to permanently but lawfully remove from
  its premises any employee of ITC/\DeltaCom identified as posing a security
  risk to BellSouth or any other CLEC, or having violated BellSouth policies
  set forth in the BellSouth CLEC Security Training. ITC/\DeltaCom shall hold
  BellSouth harmless for any damages resulting from such removal of its
  personnel from BellSouth premises.

       11.3 USE OF BELLSOUTH SUPPLIES BY ITC/\DELTACOM EMPLOYEES. Use of
  any BellSouth supplies by a ITC/\DeltaCom employee, whether or not used
  routinely to provide telephone service (e.g. plug-in cards,) will be
  considered theft and will be handled accordingly. Costs associated with
  such unauthorized use of BellSouth property may be charged to ITC/\DeltaCom
  as may be all associated investigative costs. At BellSouth's request,
  ITC/\DeltaCom shall promptly and permanently remove from BellSouth's
  Central Office any employee of ITC/\DeltaCom found to be in violation of
  this rule.

       11.4 USE OF OFFICIAL LINES BY ITC/\DELTACOM EMPLOYEES. Except for
  local calls necessary in the performance of their work, ITC/\DeltaCom
  employees shall not use the telephones on BellSouth Central Office.
  Charges for unauthorized telephone calls made by a ITC/\DeltaCom's
  employees may be charged to ITC/\DeltaCom as may be all associated
  investigative costs. At BellSouth's request, ITC/\DeltaCom shall promptly
  and permanently remove from BellSouth's premises any employee of
  ITC/\DeltaCom found to be in violation of this rule.

       11.5 ACCOUNTABILITY. Full compliance with the Security
  requirements of this section shall in no way limit the accountability of
  any CLEC for the improper actions of its employees.

  12.     DESTRUCTION OF COLLOCATION SPACE.

       12.1 In the event a Collocation Space is wholly or partially
  damaged by fire, windstorm, tornado, flood or by similar causes to such an
  extent as to be rendered wholly unsuitable for ITC/\DeltaCom's permitted
  use hereunder, then either party may elect within ten (10) days after such
  damage, to terminate this Attachment, and if either party shall so elect,
  by giving the other written notice of termination, both parties shall
  stand released of and from

  Florida
<PAGE>

                                 Attachment 4
                                     20

  further liability under the terms hereof. If the Collocation Space shall
  suffer only minor damage and shall not be rendered wholly unsuitable for
  ITC/\DeltaCom's permitted use, or is damaged and the option to terminate is
  not exercised by either party, BellSouth covenants and agrees to proceed
  promptly without expense to ITC/\DeltaCom, except for improvements not the
  property of BellSouth, to repair the damage. BellSouth shall have a
  reasonable time within which to rebuild or make any repairs, and such
  rebuilding and repairing shall be subject to delays caused by storms,
  shortages of labor and materials, government regulations, strikes,
  walkouts, and causes beyond the control of BellSouth, which causes shall
  not be construed as limiting factors, but as exemplary only. ITC/\DeltaCom
  may, at its own expense, accelerate the rebuild of its collocated space
  and equipment provided however that a certified vendor is used and the
  necessary space preparation has been completed. Rebuild of equipment must
  be performed by a BellSouth Certified Vendor. If ITC/\DeltaCom's
  acceleration of the project increases the cost of the project, then those
  additional charges will be incurred by ITC/\DeltaCom. Where allowed and
  where practical, ITC/\DeltaCom may erect a temporary facility while
  BellSouth rebuilds or makes repairs. In all cases where the Collocation
  Space shall be rebuilt or repaired, ITC/\DeltaCom shall be entitled to an
  equitable abatement of rent and other charges, depending upon the
  unsuitability of the Collocation Space for ITC/\DeltaCom's permitted use,
  until such Collocation Space is fully repaired and restored and

(1)      SUBSEQUENT APPLICATION FEE. BellSouth requires the submission of an
    Application Fee for modifications to an existing arrangement. However,
    when the modifications do not require BellSouth to expend capital,
    BellSouth will assess the Subsequent Application Fee in lieu of the
    Application Fee. Proposed modifications that could result in assessment
    of a Subsequent Application Fee would cause BellSouth to analyze the
    following but are not limited to; floor loading changes, changes to
    HVAC requirements, power requirement changes which may result in a
    power plant upgrade, environmental or safety requirements, or equipment
    relocation.

(2)      SPACE PREPARATION FEE. The Space Preparation Fee is a one-time fee,
    assessed per arrangement, per location. It recovers costs assessed with
    the shared physical collocation area within a central office, which
    include survey, engineering, design and building modification costs.
    BellSouth will pro rate the total shared space preparation costs among
    the collocators at each location based on the amount of square footage
    occupied by each collocator. This charge may vary depending on the
    location and the type of arrangement requested.

             ENVIRONMENTAL AND SAFETY

                 PRINCIPLES

  The following principles provide basic guidance on environmental and
  safety issues when applying for and establishing Physical Collocation
  arrangements.

  1.           GENERAL PRINCIPLES

  1.1          COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom
         agree to comply with applicable federal, state, and local
         environmental and safety laws and regulations including U.S.
         Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) regulations issued
         under the Clean Air Act (CAA), Clean Water Act (CWA),
         Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), Comprehensive
         Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act
         (CERCLA), Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act
         (SARA), the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), and OSHA
         regulations issued under the Occupational Safety and Health
         Act of 1970, as amended and NFPA and National Electrical
         Codes (NEC) and the NESC ("Applicable Laws"). Each Party
         shall notify the other if compliance inspections are
         conducted by regulatory agencies and/or citations are issued
         that relate to any aspect of this Attachment.

  1.2          NOTICE. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall provide notice to
         the other, including Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs), of
         known and recognized physical hazards or Hazardous Chemicals
         existing on site or brought on site. Each Party is required
         to provide specific notice for known potential Imminent
         Danger conditions. ITC/\DeltaCom should contact 1-800-743-6737
         for BellSouth MSDS sheets.

  1.3          PRACTICES/PROCEDURES. BellSouth may make available additional
         environmental control procedures for ITC/\DeltaCom to follow
         when working at a BellSouth Premises (See Section 2, below).
         These practices/procedures will represent the regular work
         practices required to be followed by the employees and
         contractors of BellSouth for environmental protection.
         ITC/\DeltaCom will require its contractors, agents and others
         accessing the BellSouth Premises to comply with these
         practices Section 2 lists the Environmental categories where
         BST practices should be followed by CLEC when operating in
         the BellSouth Premises.

  1.4          ENVIRONMENTAL AND SAFETY INSPECTIONS. BellSouth reserves the
         right to inspect the ITC/\DeltaCom space with proper
         notification. BellSouth reserves the right to stop any
         ITC/\DeltaCom work operation that imposes Imminent Danger to
         the environment, employees or other persons in the area or
         Facility.

  1.5          HAZARDOUS MATERIALS BROUGHT ON SITE. Any hazardous materials
         brought into, used, stored or abandoned at the BellSouth
         Premises by ITC/\DeltaCom are owned by ITC/\DeltaCom.
         ITC/\DeltaCom will indemnify BellSouth for claims, lawsuits or

                                     26

         damages to persons or property caused by these materials.
         Without prior written BellSouth approval, no substantial new
         safety or environmental hazards can be created by
         ITC/\DeltaCom or different hazardous materials used by
         ITC/\DeltaCom at BellSouth Facility. ITC/\DeltaCom must
         demonstrate adequate emergency response capabilities for its
         materials used or remaining at the BellSouth Facility.

  1.6          SPILLS AND RELEASES. When contamination is discovered at a
         BellSouth Premises, the Party discovering the condition must
         notify BellSouth. All Spills or Releases of regulated
         materials will immediately be retorted by ITC/\DeltaCom to

  1.7          COORDINATED ENVIRONMENTAL PLANS AND PERMITS. BellSouth and
         ITC/\DeltaCom will coordinate plans, permits or information
         required to be submitted to government agencies, such as
         emergency response plans, spill prevention control and
         countermeasures (SPCC) plans and community reporting. If fees
         are associated with filing, BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom will
         develop a cost sharing procedure. If BellSouth' s permit or
         EPA identification number must be used, ITC/\DeltaCom must
         comply with all of BellSouth's permit conditions and
         environmental processes, including environmental "best
         management practices (BMP)" (see Section 2, below) and/or

  1.8          ENVIRONMENTAL AND SAFETY INDEMNIFICATION. BellSouth and
         ITC/\DeltaCom shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the
         other Party from and against any claims (including, without
         limitation, third-party claims for personal injury or death
         or real or personal property damage), judgments, damages,
         (including direct and indirect damages, and punitive
         damages), penalties, fines, forfeitures, costs, liabilities,
         interest and losses arising in connection with the violation
         or alleged violation of any Applicable Law or contractual
         obligation or the presence or alleged presence of
         contamination arising out of the acts or omissions of the
         indemnifying Party, its agents, contractors, or employees
         concerning its operations at the Facility.

  2.           CATEGORIES FOR CONSIDERATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES
         When performing functions that fall under the following
         Environmental categories on BellSouth's Premises,
         ITC/\DeltaCom agrees to comply with the applicable sections of
         the current issue of BellSouth's Environmental and Safety
         Methods and Procedures (M&Ps), incorporated herein by this
         reference. ITC/\DeltaCom further agrees to cooperate with
         BellSouth to ensure that ITC/\DeltaCom's employees, agents,
         and/or subcontractors are knowledgeable of and satisfy those
         provisions of BellSouth's Environmental M&Ps which apply to
         the specific Environmental function being performed by

                    ACCESS TO NUMBERS AND NUMBER PORTABILITY

1.0      Non-Discriminatory Access to Telephone Numbers

         Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to limit or otherwise
         adversely affect in any manner either Party's right to employ, or to
         request and be assigned, any Central Office (NXX) Codes pursuant to the
         Central Office Code Assignment Guidelines, as may be amended from time
         to time, or to establish by Tariff or otherwise, Rate Center and Rating
         Points corresponding to such NXX Codes. BellSouth will provide number
         portability to ITC/\DeltaCom and their customers with minimum
         impairment of functionality, quality, reliability and convenience.

1.1      During the term of this Agreement, the Parties shall contact Lockheed
         Martin for the assignment of numbering resources. In order to be
         assigned a Central Office Code, the Parties will be required to
         complete the Central Office Code (NXX) Assignment Request and
         Confirmation Form (Code Request Form) in accordance with Industry
         Numbering Committee's Central Office Code (NXX) Assignment Guidelines
         (INC 95-0407-008).

1.2      It shall be the responsibility of each Party to
         program and update its own switches and network
         systems in accordance with the Local Exchange Routing
         Guide ("LERG") in order to recognize and route
         traffic to the other Party's assigned NXX Codes at
         all times.

2.0      Local Number Portability

2.1      The Parties shall provide Local Number Portability ("LNP") on a
         reciprocal basis to each other to the extent technically feasible, and
         in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations as prescribed
         from time to time by the FCC and/or the Commission.

2.2      Local Number Portability

         2.2.1 Deployment of LNP. LNP allows End Users to keep their
               existing Telephone Line Numbers ("TLNs") when switching LECs. The
               Parties shall implement and deploy the Location Routing Number
               ("LRN") solution for permanent LNP in accordance with orders,
               rulings and policies regarding LNP issued by the North American
               Numbering Committee ("NANC"), the FCC and applicable state
               commissions, including without limitation, the FCC prescribed
               permanent LNP geographic deployment schedules.

         2.2.2 Description of LNP. LNP uses the industry standard LRN that
               assigns a unique 10-digit number to each Wire Center. To support
               LNP, LRN data is stored, and LNP is provisioned on Advanced
               Intelligent Network ("AIN") elements that replace the dialed TLN
               with the LRN so that LNP calls can be routed to the proper Wire
               Center for connection to the dialed party. To obtain the LRN data
               and properly provision LNP services, carriers must be connected
               to independently

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 5
                                                                          PAGE 2
               operated Regional Number Portability Administration Centers
               ("NPACs") which will manage LNP services and provide LNP call
               routing data to carriers.

         2.2.3 Once LNP is implemented, either Party will withdraw its
               Interim Number Portability ("INP") offerings, subject to (i)
               provision of reasonable advance notice to the other Party; and
               (ii) coordination to allow the seamless and transparent
               conversion of INP customers to LNP. Once LNP is implemented in an
               end office pursuant to FCC or state Commission orders, rules or
               regulations, with advance written notice, either Party must
               withdraw its INP offerings. The transition from existing INP
               arrangements to LNP shall occur within 120 days from the date LNP
               is implemented in the end office serving the telephone number.
               Neither Party shall charge the other Party for conversion from
               INP to LNP. The Parties shall comply with any INP/LNP transition
               processes established by the FCC and State Commissions and
               appropriate industry number portability work groups.

         2.2.4 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge that
               the FCC has determined once LNP has been deployed pursuant to the
               FCC's orders, rules and regulations, that all local exchange
               carriers (LECs) have the duty to provide LNP. Therefore, either
               Party, at any time, may seek appropriate legal or regulatory
               relief concerning the transition from INP to LNP or other related
               issues.

         2.2.5 CHARGES. The Parties agree to compensate each other for
               providing LNP in accordance with pertinent rules, orders and
               charges adopted or approved by the FCC, and effective Tariffs
               filed in accordance with such FCC requirements. Such charges
               shall be itemized and clearly designated as "LNP charges."

         2.2.6 The Parties will exchange SS7 TCAP messages as required for
               the implementation of Customer Local Area Signaling Services
               (CLASS) or other features available.

2.3.     INTERIM NUMBER PORTABILITY

         2.3.1    SERVICE PROVIDER NUMBER PORTABILITY

                  2.3.1.1 DEFINITION. Until an industry-wide permanent solution
                  can be achieved, BellSouth shall provide Service Provider
                  Number Portability ("SPNP"). SPNP is an interim service
                  arrangement whereby an end user who switches subscription of
                  his local exchange service from BellSouth to ITC/\DeltaCom, or
                  vice versa, is permitted to retain the use of his existing
                  assigned telephone number, provided that the end user remains
                  at the same location for his local exchange service. or
                  changes locations and service providers but stays within the
                  same serving wire center of his existing number.

                  2.3.1.2 METHODS OF PROVIDING NUMBER PORTABILITY. SPNP is
                  available through either remote call forwarding or direct
                  inward dialing trunks, at the election of ITC/\DeltaCom.
                  Remote call forwarding (SPNP-RCF) is an existing switch-based
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 5
                                                                          PAGE 3

                  BellSouth service that redirects calls within the telephone
                  network. Direct inward dialing trunks (SPNP-DID) allow calls
                  to be routed over a dedicated facility to the ITC/\DeltaCom
                  switch that serves the subscriber. SS7 Signaling is required
                  for the provision of either of these services.

         2.3.2    SPNP-DID is available from BellSouth on a per DS0, DS1, or DS3
                  basis. Where SPNP-DID is technically feasible and is provided
                  on a DS1 or a DS3 basis, the applicable channelization rates
                  are those specified in Attachment 11 hereto, incorporated
                  herein by this reference. SPNP is available only for basic
                  local exchange service.

2.4      SPNP is available only where ITC/\DeltaCom or BellSouth is currently
         providing, or will begin providing concurrent with provision of SPNP,
         basic local exchange service to the affected end user. SPNP for a
         particular telephone number is available only from the central office
         originally providing local exchange service to the end user. SPNP for a
         particular assigned telephone number will be disconnected when any end
         user, Commission, BellSouth, or ITC/\DeltaCom initiated activity (e.g.,
         a change in exchange boundaries) would normally result in a telephone
         number change had the end user retained his initial local exchange
         service.

         2.4.1 SPNP-RCF, as contemplated by this Agreement, is a
               telecommunications service whereby a call dialed to an SPNP-RCF
               equipped telephone number is automatically forwarded to an
               assigned seven- or ten- digit telephone number within the local
               calling area as defined in BellSouth's General Subscriber
               Services Tariff. The forwarded-to number shall be specified by
               ITC/\DeltaCom or BellSouth, as appropriate. The forwarding
               company will provide identification of the originating telephone
               number, via SS7 signaling, to the receiving Party. Identification
               of the originating telephone number to the SPNP-RCF end user
               cannot be guaranteed, however. SPNP-RCF provides a single call
               path for the forwarding of no more than one simultaneous call to
               the receiving Party's specified forwarded-to number. Additional
               call paths for the forwarding of multiple simultaneous calls are
               available on a per path basis at separate rates in addition to
               the rates for SPNP-RCF.

         2.4.2 SPNP-DID service, as contemplated by this Agreement,
               provides trunk side access to end office switches for direct
               inward dialing to the other company's premises equipment from the
               telecommunications network to lines associated with the other
               company's switching equipment and must be provided on all trunks
               in a group arranged for inward service. A SPNP-DID trunk
               termination charge, provided with SS7 Signaling only, applies for
               each trunk voice grade equivalent. In addition, direct facilities
               are required from the end office where a ported number resides to
               the end office serving the ported end user customer. The rates
               for a switched local channel and switched dedicated transport
               apply as contained in Attachment 11 hereto. Transport mileage
               will be calculated as the airline distance between the end office
               where the number is ported and the Point of Interface ("POI")
               using the V&H coordinate method. SPNP-DID must be

               control purposes. Transport facilities arranged for SPNP-DID may
               not be mixed with any other type of trunk group, with no outgoing
               calls placed over said facilities. SPNP-DID will be provided only
               where such facilities are available and where the switching
               equipment of the ordering company is properly equipped. Where
               SPNP-DID service is required from more than one wire center or
               from separate trunk groups within the same wire center, such
               service provided from each wire center or each trunk group within
               the same wire center shall be considered a separate service. Only
               customer-dialed sent-paid calls will be completed to the first
               number of a SPNP-DID number group; however, there are no
               restrictions on calls completed to other numbers of a SPNP-DID
               number group. Interface group arrangements provided for
               terminating the switched transport at the Party's terminal
               location are as set forth in of BellSouth's Intrastate Access
               Services Tariff, ss. E6.1.3.A as amended from time to time.

         2.4.3 The calling Party shall be responsible for payment of the
               applicable charges for sent-paid calls to the SPNP number. For
               collect, third-Party, or other operator-assisted non-sent paid
               calls to the ported telephone number, BellSouth or ITC/\DeltaCom
               shall be responsible for the payment of charges under the same
               terms and conditions for which the end user would have been
               liable for those charges. Either company may request that the
               other block collect and third company non-sent paid calls to the
               SPNP-assigned telephone number. If a company does not request
               blocking, the other company will provide itemized local usage
               data for the billing of non-sent paid calls on the monthly bill
               of usage charges provided at the individual end user account
               level. The detail will include itemization of all billable usage.
               Each company shall have the option of receiving this usage data
               on a daily basis via a data file transfer arrangement. This
               arrangement will utilize the existing industry uniform standard,
               known as EMI standards, for exchange of billing data. Files of
               usage data will be created daily for the optional service. Usage
               originated and recorded in the sending BellSouth RAO will be
               provided in unrated or rated format, depending on processing
               system. ITC/\DeltaCom usage originated elsewhere and delivered
               via CMDS to the sending BellSouth RAO shall be provided in rated
               format.

         2.4.4 Each company shall be responsible for obtaining
               authorization from the end user for the handling of the
               disconnection of the end user's service, the provision of new
               local service and the provision of SPNP services. Each company
               shall be responsible for coordinating the provision of service
               with the other to assure that its switch is capable of accepting
               SPNP ported traffic. Each company shall be responsible for
               providing equipment and facilities that are compatible with the
               other's service parameters, interfaces, equipment and facilities
               and shall be required to provide sufficient terminating
               facilities and services at the terminating end of an SPNP call to
               adequately handle all traffic to that location and shall be
               solely responsible to ensure that its facilities, equipment and
               services do not interfere with or impair any facility, equipment,
               or service of the other company or
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 5
                                                                          PAGE 5

               any of its end users. In the event that either company determines
               in its reasonable judgment that the other company will likely
               impair or is impairing, or interfering with any equipment,
               facility or service or any of its end users, that company may
               either refuse to provide SPNP service or may terminate SPNP
               service to the other Party after providing appropriate notice.

         2.4.5 Each company shall be responsible for providing an
               appropriate intercept announcement service for any telephone
               numbers subscribed to SPNP services for which it is not presently
               providing local exchange service or terminating to an end user.
               Where either company chooses to disconnect or terminate any SPNP
               service, that company shall be responsible for designating the
               preferred standard type of announcement to be provided.

         2.4.6 Each company shall be the other company's single point of
               contact for all repair calls on behalf of each company's end
               user. Each company reserves the right to contact the other
               company's customers if deemed necessary for maintenance purposes.

         2.4.7 Neither company shall be responsible for adverse effects on
               any service, facility or equipment from the use of SPNP services.
               End-to-end transmission characteristics may vary depending on the
               distance and routing necessary to complete calls over SPNP
               facilities and the fact that another carrier is involved in the
               provisioning of service. Therefore, end-to-end transmission
               characteristics cannot be specified by either company for such
               calls. Neither company shall be responsible to the other if any
               necessary change in protection criteria or in any of the
               facilities, operation, or procedures of either renders any
               facilities provided by the other company obsolete or renders
               necessary modification of the other company's equipment.

         2.4.8 For terminating IXC traffic ported to either Party which
               requires use of either Party's 's tandem switching, the tandem
               provider will bill the IXC tandem switching and its portion of
               the transport, and the other Party will bill the IXC local
               switching, the carrier common line, the interconnection charge,
               and its portion of the transport. If the tandem provider is
               unable to provide the necessary access records to permit the
               other company to bill the IXC directly for terminating access to
               ported numbers, then the tandem provider will bill the IXC full
               terminating switched access charges at the tandem provider's
               rate, keep the, tandem switching and its portion of transport,
               and remit the local switching, the interconnection charge, the
               other Party's portion of transport at the tandem provider's rate,
               CCL revenues to the other Party. If an intraLATA toll call is
               delivered, the delivering Party will pay terminating access rates
               to the other Party. This subsection does not apply in cases where
               SPNP-DID is utilized for number portability.

         2.4.9 If, through an effective order, the Federal Communications
               Commission ("FCC") issues regulations pursuant to 47 U.S.C. ss.
               251 to require number portability different than that provided
               pursuant to this section, the Parties will comply with any such
               order.

                                                                          PAGE 6

         2.4.10 Charges for INP shall be as specified in Attachment 11,
               provided that interim rates will be replaced or trued-up in
               accordance with regulatory requirements.

2.5      INP Requirements

         2.5.1 Either Party shall notify the other of any technical or
               capacity limitations that would prevent use of a requested INP
               implementation in a particular End Office or Wire Center.

         2.5.2 Either Party shall pass all Calling Party Number ("CPN") or
               Automatic Number Identification ("ANI") information to and from
               the ported number, whenever technically feasible.

         2.5.3 BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall cooperate in resolving all
               service calls involving the other Party's service, to avoid
               unnecessary service outages.

2.6      LNP Cutover Procedures.

         2.6.1 BellSouth will ensure that the disconnect order is
               completed for all ported numbers once the NPAC notification of
               ITC/\DeltaCom's Activate Subscription Version has been received
               by BellSouth. If BellSouth receives such notice by 12:00 noon, it
               will complete the disconnect the same business day. If BellSouth
               receives such notice after 12:00 noon, it will complete the
               disconnect the next business day.

         2.6.2 For an LNP Coordinated Cutover Environment (where the loop is
               being purchased by ITC/\DeltaCom as an unbundled Network Element
               at the time of LNP implementation), BellSouth shall use best
               efforts to update switch translations, where necessary, within
               fifteen (15) minutes after receiving the activate message from
               NPAC. For an LNP Non-Coordinated Cutover Environment (where the
               Loop is supplied by ITC/\DeltaCom) BellSouth shall use best
               efforts to update switch translations, where necessary, within
               fifteen (15) minutes after receiving the activate message from
               NPAC.

2.7      Number Portability Through NXX Migration

         2.7.1 Where either Party has activated an entire NXX for a single
               End User, or activated 25% or more of the numbers available in an
               NXX for a single End User with the remaining numbers in that NXX
               either reserved for future use or otherwise unused, if such End
               User chooses to receive service from the other Party, the other
               Party shall cooperate with the second Party to have the entire
               NXX reassigned in the Local Exchange Routing Guide ("LERG") (and
               associated industry databases, routing tables, etc.) to an End
               Office operated by the second Party. Such transfer will be
               accomplished with appropriate coordination between the Parties
               and subject to appropriate industry lead-times for movements of
               NXX's from one switch to another.

                            ORDERING AND PROVISIONING

1.       ORDERING AND PROVISIONING

1.1      BellSouth shall provide ordering and provisioning services to
         ITC/\DeltaCom that are equal to the ordering and provisioning services
         BellSouth provides to itself, any affiliates or subsidiaries or any
         other CLEC where technically feasible and shall provide reasonable
         assistance to ITC/\DeltaCom as necessary for ITC/\DeltaCom to
         understand how to implement and use all of the OSS functions available
         to it. BellSouth shall provide information, assistance and access to
         training at rates as may be specified by BellSouth as necessary to
         provide ITC/\DeltaCom with nondiscriminatory access to BellSouth's OSS.
         BellSouth shall make available one free seat per year for each OSS
         system (e.g. LENS, TAG, EDI, and TAFI). Additional training shall be
         available at rates specified by BellSouth. BellSouth shall provide
         ITC/\DeltaCom with nondiscriminatory access to its Operations Support
         Systems ("OSS") as necessary to access pre-ordering information, place
         orders, and obtain maintenance and repair, of both Resale Services and
         Unbundled Network Elements ("UNEs"). Detailed guidelines for ordering
         and pre-ordering are set forth in the Ordering Guide for manual
         ordering and the Local Exchange Ordering Guide for electronic ordering.
         Except where otherwise required by Commission order, where practicable,
         BellSouth will notify ITC/\DeltaCom of changes to ordering and
         preordering interfaces and business rules via the appropriate BellSouth
         web site thirty days prior to such changes. Where thirty (30) days
         advance notice is not practicable, BellSouth will use its best efforts
         to provide such notification via the appropriate web site within one
         (1) day of BellSouth's decision to implement the changes or as soon as
         possible. In addition, BellSouth will use its best efforts, through the
         account team assigned to ITC/\DeltaCom and upon ITC/\DeltaCom's
         request, to provide such notices via e-mail to the address specified by
         ITC/\DeltaCom.

1.2      All changes implemented by the Change Control Process ("CCP") shall be
         followed by the Parties. Upon request of ITC/\DeltaCom for electronic
         access to the pre-ordering, ordering/provisioning, maintenance/repair
         and billing functions described herein, BellSouth shall make available
         to ITC/\DeltaCom the following interfaces, without limitation: (i) for
         ordering, an electronic interface utilizing the Electronic Data
         Interchange ("EDI") protocol, consistent with the most recent industry
         standards for such systems established by the Ordering and Billing
         Forum ("OBF") and the Alliance for Telecommunications Industry
         Solutions ("ATIS") as determined by the Electronic Interface Change
         Control Process ("EICCP"); (ii) for pre-ordering and ordering, a
         -human-to-machine interface known as the Local Exchange Navigation
         System ("LENS"), and the machine-to-machine interface known as
         Telecommunications Access Gateway ("TAG"); (iii) facsimile-based and
         e-mail-based interfaces; (iv) BellSouth's Trouble Analysis and
         Facilitation Interface ("TAFI"), T I /M I machine-to-machine interface,
         and Electronic Communication Trouble Administration ("ECTA") interface
         for maintenance and repair; or (v) any other mutually agreeable method.
         Each such interface shall be made available to support the ordering of
         both Resale services and UNEs (provided that as of the date hereof LENS
         does not support UNE ordering), and
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 6
                                                                          PAGE 2

         shall be upgraded as necessary to ensure that ITC/\DeltaCom is provided
         access to OSS functions at parity to that provided by BellSouth to
         itself, its Affiliates or any other Telecommunications Carrier.

1.3      Access shall be offered immediately for pre-ordering capability
         integratable with ordering capability, and for associated
         maintenance/repair and billing functions. Any such interface shall
         remain consistent with ATIS, Telecommunications Industry Forum ("TIF"),
         and the most current industry guideline(s) as determined by the EICCP.
         Notwithstanding the forgoing, in the event that an industry standard
         interface is developed by the appropriate industry forum, and is
         generally accepted for implementation by the industry, then upon
         agreement by the EICCP, BellSouth shall implement such interface and
         make it available to ITC/\DeltaCom on a timely basis.

1.4      When BellSouth is unable to test and implement OSS interfaces for
         multiple Telecommunications Carriers simultaneously, BellSouth shall
         engage in such testing and implementation on a "first come-first
         served" basis.

1.5      ITC/\DeltaCom may utilize BellSouth electronic interfaces for the
         purpose of establishing and maintaining Resale services, UNEs, and
         future uses as they are made available by BellSouth.

1.6      When utilizing such OSS functions, the Parties shall at all times
         adhere to all FCC requirements relating to confidentiality of
         End-Users' Customer Proprietary Network Information ("CPNI") and in
         accordance with the terms of the Blanket Letter of Authorization
         provided to each Party.

1.7      BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall jointly establish interface
         contingency and disaster recovery plans for the pre-order, ordering,
         provisioning, repair and maintenance of Resale Services and UNEs.

1.8      The electronic interfaces described herein shall be utilized for, but
         not limited to, transferring and receiving orders, Firm Order
         Confirmations ("FOCs"), completion notices, other electronic error
         notices, and service jeopardies.

1.9      Industry standards bodies and forums (OBF and ECIC) regularly produce
         updates and new releases to specifications and documentation related to
         electronic access to OSS functions. Except as otherwise specified in
         the Agreement, the Parties agree that systems utilized for access to
         OSS shall be compliant with the most current policies and/or guidelines
         of OBF and ECIC, as determined by the EICCP.

         1.9.1    Neither Party waives its right to participate in, or advocate
                  any position in connection with deliberations of OBF, ATIS-TIF
                  or other industry standards organizations to establish and
                  conform standards for electronic interfaces for pre-ordering,
                  ordering, provisioning, and maintenance and repair.
                  ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth shall be individually responsible
                  for evaluating the risk of
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 6

                  developing their respective systems in advance of standards
                  and shall support their own system modifications as necessary
                  to comply with new requirements.

1.10     In areas where BellSouth does not provide an electronic interface for
         the pre-order and ordering processes, BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall
         develop manual work around processes until such time as the
         transactions can be electronically transmitted. ITC/\DeltaCom shall
         transmit preorder and ordering requests to the Local Carrier Service
         Center ("LCSC") via facsimile where electronic interfaces are not
         available or are not functioning.

1.11     BellSouth shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom personnel with all relevant
         manuals or other publications, information concerning ordering codes
         and field identifiers, and information concerning other business rules
         or practices necessary to ensure nondiscriminatory access to OSS,
         including all updates, on a timely basis via an electronic means as
         mutually agreed by the Parties.

1.12     BellSouth shall deploy the necessary systems and personnel to provide
         sufficient access to each of the necessary OSS functions.

1.13     BellSouth shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom with the technical specifications
         necessary to instruct ITC/\DeltaCom on how to modify or design its
         systems in a manner that shall enable it to communicate with
         BellSouth's legacy systems and any interfaces utilized by BellSouth for
         such access.

1.14     BellSouth shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom with all of the information
         necessary to format and process its electronic requests so that these
         requests flow through the interfaces, the transmission links, and into
         the legacy systems as quickly and efficiently as possible.

1.15     BellSouth shall disclose to ITC/\DeltaCom any 'business rules,'
         including information concerning the ordering codes, that BellSouth
         uses which ITC/\DeltaCom needs to place orders through the system
         efficiently via BellSouth's Interconnection Web Site in downloadable
         common spaced value format. Such ordering codes include universal
         service ordering codes ("USOCs") and field identifiers ("FIDs") used to
         identify the different services and features used in offering
         Telecommunications Services to Customers. Throughout the term of this
         Agreement, the following information will be available on BellSouth's
         Web Site:

                  and scheduled downtime. During provisioning of services to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom, support personnel will be available until the
                  migration of the end user is complete. Provisioning services
                  (LCSC and UNE Center) shall be provided during the same
                  business hours that BellSouth provisions services to its own
                  end users. All other ITC/\DeltaCom requests for provision and
                  installation services are considered outside of the normal
                  hours of operation and may be performed subject to the

                                                                          PAGE 8

                  4.6.3.3  BellSouth shall provide MSAG to ITC/\DeltaCom, as a
                           facilities based carrier, and shall provide updates
                           to MSAG on a quarterly basis. MSAG and the updates
                           thereto shall be provided at no charge.

         4.6.4    BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall work cooperatively to
                  develop methods and procedures between BellSouth's LCSC and
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's corresponding Work Center(s) regarding common
                  systems and work center interfaces.

         4.6.5    BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall establish mutually
                  acceptable methods andprocedures at no charge to the other for
                  handling all misdirected calls from ITC/\DeltaCom End Users.
                  All misdirected calls to BellSouth from ITC/\DeltaCom End
                  Users shall be given a recording (or a live statement)
                  directing them to call an ITC/\DeltaCom designated 800 number.
                  ITC/\DeltaCom, on a reciprocal basis, shall refer all
                  misdirected calls that ITC/\DeltaCom receives from BellSouth
                  End Users to a BellSouth-designated number.

         4.6.6    BellSouth shall provide order format specifications to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom for all available services, features, and
                  functions and for ancillary data that is necessary to
                  provision these services. Business Rules and EDI Mapping for
                  format and data requirements shall be consistent with industry
                  guidelines and standards.

         4.6.7    The Parties shall provide a generic intercept referral message
                  that includes any new telephone number of an End User for the
                  same period of time that the Party's provide such service to
                  their end users. The intercept message shall be similar in
                  format to the intercept referral message currently provided by
                  BellSouth for its own End Users. Each Party shall provide this
                  referral service at no charge to the other Party.

         4.6.8    BellSouth shall perform all pre-testing necessary to insure
                  the services ordered meet the specifications outlined in the
                  technical service description provided by BellSouth for the
                  service being ordered.

         4.6.9    Any written "leave behind" materials that BellSouth
                  technicians provide to ITC/\DeltaCom End Users shall be
                  non-branded materials that do not identify the work being
                  performed as being by BellSouth. These materials shall
                  include, without limitation, non-branded forms for the
                  Customer and non-branded "not at home" cards.

         4.6.10   If an ITC/\DeltaCom End User requests a change of service at
                  the time of installation, BellSouth technicians shall direct
                  them to contact ITC/\DeltaCom directly and provide a toll-free
                  (8xx) number supplied by ITC/\DeltaCom. When a BellSouth
                  employee visits the premise of an ITC/\DeltaCom End User, the

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 6
                                                                          PAGE 9

                  BellSouth employee shall inform the Customer that he or she is
                  there acting on behalf of ITC/\DeltaCom.

         4.6.11   BellSouth shall provide telephone and/or facsimile
                  notification of any charges associated with any construction
                  required for a given service, and obtain ITC/\DeltaCom's
                  approval prior to commencing construction under an
                  ITC/\DeltaCom order for such service or those charges shall be
                  waived.

         4.6.12   Each Party shall train and direct its employees who have
                  contact with End Users of the other Party, including but not
                  limited to those employees involved in the process of
                  provisioning, maintenance or repair, not to disparage the
                  other Party or its services in any way to the other Party's
                  End Users. Nor shall either Party use these calls to End Users
                  as a basis for internal referrals or to solicit customers to
                  market services. Both Parties shall respond with accurate
                  information in answering customer questions.

         4.6.13   When ITC/\DeltaCom places an LSR, ITC/\DeltaCom shall specify
                  a requested Due Date, and BellSouth shall assign a Due Date
                  based on the applicable intervals. In the event
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's requested date is less than the standard
                  interval, ITC/\DeltaCom shall contact BellSouth by telephone
                  and the Parties shall negotiate an expedited Due Date. This
                  situation shall be considered an expedited order. In the event
                  the negotiated Due Date assigned by BellSouth is within the
                  standard interval, the order will not be considered expedited.
                  BellSouth shall not complete the order prior to the Due Date
                  unless authorized by ITC/\DeltaCom. BellSouth shall use its
                  best efforts to notify ITC/\DeltaCom of any known jeopardies
                  prior to the scheduled conversion. BellSouth shall also
                  promptly notify ITC/\DeltaCom of the revised installation Due
                  Date if known at the time of the jeopardy notice. If
                  ITC/\DeltaCom requests that an order be expedited, BellSouth
                  shall notify ITC/\DeltaCom of the status of the order within
                  the expedited interval (i) by the end of the same Business Day
                  when such expedite requests are made prior to noon; or (ii) by
                  noon the following Business Day otherwise.

         4.6.14   ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth shall agree to escalation
                  procedures and contacts for resolving issues related to
                  ordering and provisioning procedures or to the processing of
                  individual orders, subject ultimately to the dispute
                  resolution provisions of this Agreement. BellSouth shall use
                  its best efforts to notify ITC/\DeltaCom of any modifications
                  to these contacts within ten business (10) days of any such
                  modifications.

         4.6.15   BellSouth shall transmit to ITC/\DeltaCom a FOC or, in the
                  alternative, notification of the lack of available facilities
                  within time periods specified herein after BellSouth's receipt
                  of a complete and correct LSR from ITC/\DeltaCom, provided,
                  however, that an LSR for complex services requiring a service
                  inquiry shall be deemed received for these purposes only after
                  completion of the service inquiry. The FOC shall contain a due
                  date which shall be established on a

                  nondiscriminatory basis with respect to installation dates for
                  comparable orders at such time. If ITC/\DeltaCom uses EDI, or
                  any other electronic interface for the submission of the LSR,
                  the FOC or notification shall be posted by BellSouth in EDI or
                  in the electronic interface used within 24 hours of receipt of
                  the LSR. If ITC/\DeltaCom does not use an electronic
                  interface, or, an electronic interface is not available for
                  the service or UNE being ordered, BellSouth shall transmit the
                  FOC or notification by facsimile to a toll-free number
                  provided by ITC/\DeltaCom within 48 hours of BellSouth's
                  receipt of the LSR. When ITC/\DeltaCom submits a complete and
                  correct LSR for INP and an associated unbundled Loop
                  simultaneously, BellSouth shall likewise issue a FOC for both
                  the Loop and the INP simultaneously.

         4.6.16   BellSouth shall notify ITC/\DeltaCom via electronic interface,
                  of Rejections/Errors contained in any of the data element(s)
                  fields contained on any ITC/\DeltaCom electronic Service
                  Request. If the electronic interface is unavailable or
                  malfunctioning, BellSouth shall notify ITC/\DeltaCom by
                  telephone, facsimile, or email as mutually agreed to by the
                  Parties, of such Rejections and Errors.

         4.6.17   ITC/\DeltaCom shall specify on each LSR its Desired Due Date
                  (DDD) for completion of that particular order. BellSouth shall
                  not complete the order prior to DDD unless early turn-up is
                  needed for testing purposes. BellSouth shall notify
                  ITC/\DeltaCom if the DDD cannot be met. BellSouth shall
                  exercise best efforts to meet the DDD for Network Element
                  requests.

         4.6.18   USE OF FACILITIES. When a customer of a ITC/\DeltaCom elects
                  to discontinue service and transfer service to another local
                  exchange carrier, including BellSouth, BellSouth shall have
                  the right to reuse the facilities provided to CLEC by
                  BellSouth for retail or resale service, unbundled loop and/or
                  unbundled port for that customer. In addition, BellSouth may
                  disconnect and reuse facilities when the facility is in a
                  denied state and BellSouth has received an order to establish
                  new service or transfer of service from a customer or a
                  customer's CLEC at the same address served by the denied
                  facility. In the event of such reuse of facilities, BellSouth
                  and ITC/\DeltaCom shall coordinate such transition to avoid
                  any service outage to the end users.

         4.6.18.1 Upon receipt of a service order, BellSouth will do the
                  following:

                  4.6.18.1.1   Process disconnect and reconnect orders to
                  provision the service which shall be due dated using current
                  interval guidelines.

                  4.6.18.1.2   Reuse the serving facility for the retail, resale
                  service, or unbundled network element at the same location.

                  4.6.18.1.3   Notify ITC/\DeltaCom subsequent to the disconnect
                  order being completed.

                                                                         PAGE 11

         4.6.19   BellSouth shall provision UNEs with the same timeliness that
                  the same or similar facilities are provisioned to BellSouth's
                  Affiliates, or other Persons to whom BellSouth directly
                  provides such facilities.

         4.6.20   When available, BellSouth shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom with the
                  ability to have BellSouth end offices AIN triggers initiated
                  via an electronic service order from ITC/\DeltaCom.

         4.6.21   ITC/\DeltaCom may order from BellSouth multiple individual
                  UNEs on a single order without the need for ITC/\DeltaCom to
                  send an order for each such UNE, if such UNEs are (i) for a
                  single type of service, (ii) for a single location and (iii)
                  for the same account.

         4.6.22   BellSouth shall recognize ITC/\DeltaCom as the Customer of
                  Record for all UNEs ordered by ITC/\DeltaCom and shall send
                  all notices, invoices and pertinent Customer information
                  directly to ITC/\DeltaCom.

         4.6.23   Within two (2) hours of ITC/\DeltaCom's request, BellSouth
                  shall use its best efforts to perform cooperative testing with
                  ITC/\DeltaCom (including trouble shooting to isolate any
                  problems) to test UNEs purchased by ITC/\DeltaCom in order to
                  identify any performance problems.
         4.6.24   Order Flow Through. Order Flow Through is defined as the
                  process whereby ITC/\DeltaCom's orders are transmitted
                  electronically through the gateway and accepted into
                  BellSouth's back office order systems without manual
                  intervention.

         4.6.25   BellSouth will provide ITC/\DeltaCom with one line equipped
                  for Remote Call Forwarding in certain BellSouth switches as
                  set forth in this Section for ITC/\DeltaCom's use solely to
                  conduct verification testing of routing and translations
                  instructions in BellSouth's switches. Such verification is
                  intended to confirm that BellSouth has implemented proper
                  routing and translation instructions in the BellSouth switch
                  so that calls from end users served by such BellSouth switch
                  will be properly routed to NXX codes assigned to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's switch. The Remote Call Forwarding line will
                  be equipped with one call path. Provision of such lines will
                  generally coincide with ITC/\DeltaCom's installation of new
                  switches where ITC/\DeltaCom assigns new NXX codes to such
                  switches. In such cases, the Remote Call Forwarding lines will
                  be provided to ITC/\DeltaCom in sufficient time for
                  ITC/\DeltaCom to perform its verification testing prior to NXX
                  code activation. Thereafter, ITC/\DeltaCom may use the Remote
                  Call Forwarding lines to perform NXX code verification
                  testing. Remote Call Forwarding lines will also be provided to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom as needed for verification testing relating to
                  existing switches. ITC/\DeltaCom will pay the same non-
                  recurring and recurring rates for these Remote Call Forwarding
                  lines as ITC/\DeltaCom pays for Remote Call Forwarding used in
                  conjunction with Interim Number Portability as set forth in
                  Attachment 11 of this Agreement.

4.7      UNE CONVERSIONS

         4.7.1    BellSouth agrees to coordinate with ITC/\DeltaCom at least
                  forty-eight hours prior to the due date a scheduled conversion
                  date and time.

         4.7.2    Twenty-four (24) to forty-eight (48) hours in advance of a
                  loop cutover, BellSouth will conduct testing to ensure that
                  dial tone from ITC/\DeltaCom is available for requested loops.
                  If dial tone is not available from ITC/\DeltaCom, BellSouth
                  will so notify ITC/\DeltaCom.

         4.7.3    If ITC/\DeltaCom requests or approves that a BellSouth
                  technician perform services in excess of those necessary for
                  the conversion of "live" Telephone Exchange Services to UNEs,
                  BellSouth may charge ITC/\DeltaCom for any additional
                  reasonable labor charges to perform such services.

         4.7.4    Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the
                  performance/intervals for installation of unbundled Loops
                  should not exceed the interval for reestablishing service for
                  the customer with BellSouth.

5.0      MAINTENANCE/REPAIR INTERFACES AND FUNCTIONS

5.1      BellSouth shall make available electronic interfaces to ITC/\DeltaCom
         for maintenance, trouble reporting, and repair, including initiation of
         trouble tickets, updates/changes, status checking, scheduling
         maintenance appointments, and cancellation, for both Resale services
         and UNEs. Ongoing maintenance practices on unbundled loops shall equal
         the practices employed by BellSouth for facilities used to provide
         retail services. BellSouth will use its best efforts to ensure that the
         mean time to repair unbundled loops shall be equivalent to the mean
         time to repair reported by BellSouth for its retail customers.

5.2      BellSouth's maintenance systems and databases will allow ITC/\DeltaCom
         maintenance personnel and customer service representatives to perform
         the following functions for ITC/\DeltaCom Customers: (i) enter a new
         customer trouble ticket into the BellSouth maintenance system for an
         ITC/\DeltaCom Customer; (ii) retrieve and track current status on all
         ITC/\DeltaCom Customer repair tickets; (iii) receive "estimated time to
         repair" ("ETTR") on a real-time basis; (iv) perform where appropriate
         an electronic test at the time of ticket entry and provide test results
         to ITC/\DeltaCom; and (v) electronic notification when trouble is
         cleared.

5.3      If an electronic interface is not available, BellSouth agrees that
         ITC/\DeltaCom may transmit repair calls to BellSouth's repair bureau
         and request dispatching a BellSouth technician to an ITC/\DeltaCom
         customer's premises by telephone. BellSouth agrees to
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 6
                                                                         PAGE 13

         provide the status upon ITC/\DeltaCom's request, in an expedient
         manner. The speed of answer time for ITC/\DeltaCom shall be equal to
         that for BellSouth.

5.4      BellSouth shall prioritize ITC/\DeltaCom end users for purposes of
         repair in the same manner and within the same time frames that
         BellSouth prioritizes its own end users for repair as described in this
         Section. In disaster situations, BellSouth follows the FCC's Emergency
         Preparedness Restoration Guidelines (010-400-002 BT). In non-disaster
         situations, BellSouth shall expedite, at no additional charge, the
         repair of ITC/\DeltaCom's UNEs and services where ITC/\DeltaCom reports
         to BellSouth that the UNE or service serves an emergency facility, an
         end user requiring access to emergency facilities via
         telecommunications services or another high priority end user.
         ITC/\DeltaCom agrees to submit expedite reports pursuant to this
         Section only in the circumstances described herein, and any such report
         for prioritization shall be made in good faith. The Parties shall
         comply with the Disaster Recovery Plan as set forth in Exhibit A of
         this Attachment.

5.5      BellSouth agrees to advise ITC/\DeltaCom of any central office failure
         or other major service interruptions that are known at the time of an
         inquiry or trouble report.

5.6      BellSouth agrees to provide, via electronic interface, an Estimated
         Time to Repair ("ETTR") on all trouble reports submitted
         electronically, an appointment time or a commitment time, as
         appropriate.

5.7      The Parties shall insure that all technicians and representatives are
         properly trained and that they follow such procedures in all their
         communications with End Users. At a minimum, the aforementioned
         procedures shall assume that: (1) BellSouth technicians shall provide
         repair service that is at least equal in quality to that provided to
         BellSouth customers or any other entity; (2) maintenance and repair
         shall take place based on a prioritization schedule devised by mutual
         agreement of the parties; (3) Customers shall be restored to service
         based on the priority system devised by mutual agreement of the parties
         on a non-discriminatory basis; and (4) ITC/\DeltaCom may prioritize
         repair scheduling of its own customers through an escalation procedure.

5.8      The BellSouth repair bureau including the Electronic Interface, shall
         be on-line and operational twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7)
         days per week except for scheduled electronic interface downtime.

5.9      Service centers shall be established by both Parties to handle service
         issues, escalations, and resolution of billing issues and other
         administrative problems.

5.10     The Parties agree to adopt a process for the efficient management of
         misdirected service calls.

5.11     BellSouth shall perform Mechanized Unbundled Loop Tests ("Quick Test")
         at the request of ITC/\DeltaCom while ITC/\DeltaCom is on line.

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 6
                                                                         PAGE 14

5.12     BellSouth shall close all trouble reports with ITC/\DeltaCom, within 24
         hours of resolution of the trouble. ITC/\DeltaCom shall close all
         trouble reports with the End User. BellSouth's outside technicians
         shall clear troubles to the network interface and provide callback from
         the fault location to ITC/\DeltaCom.

5.13     BellSouth shall not undertake any work at an End User's request for
         which ITC/\DeltaCom would be charged without obtaining the prior
         approval of ITC/\DeltaCom. This includes authorizations by
         ITC/\DeltaCom if a dispatch is required to the customer premises as
         well as verification of actual work completed.

5.14     All Auto/Subscriber Line Tests ("ALT/SLT") tests performed on
         ITC/\DeltaCom customers that result in a failure shall be reported to
         ITC/\DeltaCom.

5.15     ITC/\DeltaCom shall coordinate dispatches to the customer premise. This
         includes redispatches for customer not-at-home.

5.16     BellSouth shall respond to ITC/\DeltaCom customer alarms consistent
         with how and when they respond to alarms for their own customers.
         BellSouth shall ensure that all applicable alarm systems that support
         ITC/\DeltaCom customers are operational and the supporting databases
         are accurate so that equipment that is in alarm will be promptly
         identified.

5.17     BellSouth will use best efforts to notify ITC/\DeltaCom, of any
         scheduled maintenance activity performed by BellSouth that may be
         service affecting to ITC/\DeltaCom local customers (i.e., cable throws,
         power tests, etc.).

5.18     The Parties agree to establish a special emergency escalation procedure
         for use in situations involving customer out-of-service situations.

5.19     In facility and power outage situations, BellSouth agrees to provide
         UNEs leased by ITC/\DeltaCom the same priority for maintenance and
         restoral as similar elements used by BellSouth for itself or its
         Affiliates.

5.20     BellSouth shall notify ITC/\DeltaCom at parity with its own retail
         units in the event any repair person is unable to be present for, or
         anticipates missing, a scheduled repair opportunity.

1.0 PURPOSE

In the unlikely event of a disaster occurring that affects BellSouth's long-term
ability to deliver traffic to a Competitive Local Exchange Carrier (CLEC),
general procedures have been developed to hasten the recovery process.  Since
each location is different and could be affected by an assortment of potential
problems, a detailed recovery plan is impractical.  However, in the process of
reviewing recovery activities for specific locations, some basic procedures
emerge that appear to be common in most cases.

These general procedures should apply to any disaster that affects the delivery
of traffic for an extended time period.  Each CLEC will be given the same parity
consideration during an outage and service will be restored as quickly as
possible.

This document will cover the basic recovery procedures that would apply to every
CLEC.

2.0      SINGLE POINT OF CONTACT

When a problem is experienced, regardless of the severity, the BellSouth Network
Management Center (NMC) will observe traffic anomalies and begin monitoring the
situation. Controls will be appropriately applied to insure the sanity of
BellSouth's network; and, in the event that a switch or facility node is lost,
the NMC will attempt to circumvent the failure using available reroutes.

BellSouth's NMC will remain in control of the restoration efforts until the
problem has been identified as being a long-term outage. At that time, the NMC
will contact BellSouth's Emergency Control Center (ECC) and relinquish control
of the recovery efforts. Even though the ECC may take charge of the situation,
the NMC will continue to monitor the circumstances and restore traffic as soon
as damaged network elements are revitalized.

         THE TELEPHONE NUMBER FOR THE BELLSOUTH NETWORK MANAGEMENT CENTER IN
ATLANTA, AS PUBLISHED IN TELCORDIA'S NATIONAL NETWORK MANAGEMENT DIRECTORY, IS
404-321-2516. THE TELEPHONE NUMBER FOR ITC/\DeltaCom's Switch Control Center is

3.0      IDENTIFYING THE PROBLEM

During the early stages of problem detection, the NMC will be able to tell which
CLECs are affected by the catastrophe. Further analysis and/or first hand
observation will determine if the disaster has affected CLEC equipment only;
BellSouth equipment only or a combination. The initial restoration activity will
be largely determined by the equipment that is affected.

Once the nature of the disaster is determined and after verifying the cause of
the problem, the NMC will initiate reroutes and/or transfers that are jointly
agreed upon by the affected CLECs' Network Management Center and the BellSouth
NMC. The type and percentage of controls used will depend upon available network
capacity. Controls necessary to stabilize the situation will be invoked and the
NMC will attempt to re-establish as much traffic as possible.

                                                                 OF ATTACHMENT 6
                                                                          PAGE 4

For long term outages, recovery efforts will be coordinated by the Emergency
Control Center (ECC). Traffic controls will continue to be applied by the NMC
until facilities are re-established. As equipment is made available for service,
the ECC will instruct the NMC to begin removing the controls and allow traffic
to resume.

3.1      SITE CONTROL

In the total loss of building use scenario, what likely exists will be a smoking
pile of rubble. This rubble will contain many components which could be
dangerous. It could also contain any personnel on the premises at the time of
the disaster. For these reasons, the local fire marshal with the assistance of
the police will control the site until the building is no longer a threat to
surrounding properties and the companies have secured the site from the general
public.

During this time, the majority owner of the building should be arranging for a
demolition contractor to mobilize to the site with the primary objective of
reaching the cable entrance facility for a damage assessment. The results of
this assessment would then dictate immediate plans for restoration, both short
term and permanent.

In a less catastrophic event, i.e., the building is still standing and the cable
entrance facility is usable, the situation is more complex. The site will
initially be controlled by local authorities until the threat to adjacent
property has diminished. Once the site is returned to the control of the
companies, the following events should occur.

An initial assessment of the main building infrastructure systems (mechanical,
electrical, fire & life safety, elevators, and others) will establish building
needs. Once these needs are determined, the majority owner should lead the
building restoration efforts. There may be situations where the site will not be
totally restored within the confines of the building. The companies must
individually determine their needs and jointly assess the cost of permanent
restoration to determine the overall plan of action.

Multiple restoration trailers from each company will result in the need for
designated space and installation order. This layout and control is required to
maximize the amount of restoration equipment that can be placed at the site, and
the priority of placements.

Care must be taken in this planning to insure other restoration efforts have
logistical access to the building. Major components of telephone and building
equipment will need to be removed and replaced. A priority for this equipment
must also be jointly established to facilitate overall site restoration.
(Example: If the AC switchgear has sustained damage, this would be of the
highest priority in order to regain power, lighting, and HVAC throughout the
building.)

If the site will not accommodate the required restoration equipment, the
companies would then need to quickly arrange with local authorities for street
closures, rights of way or other possible options available.

                                                                 OF ATTACHMENT 6
                                                                          PAGE 5

3.2      ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS

In the worse case scenario, many environmental concerns must be addressed. Along
with the police and fire marshal, the state environmental protection department
will be on site to monitor the situation.

Items to be concerned with in a large central office building could include:

         1. Emergency engine fuel supply. Damage to the standby equipment and
         the fuel handling equipment could have created "spill" conditions that
         have to be handled within state and federal regulations.

         2. Asbestos containing materials that may be spread throughout the
         wreckage. Asbestos could be in many components of building, electrical,
         mechanical, outside plant distribution, and telephone systems.

         3. Lead and acid. These materials could be present in potentially large
         quantities depending upon the extent of damage to the power room.

         4. Mercury and other regulated compounds resident in telephone
         equipment.

         5. Other compounds produced by the fire or heat.

Once a total loss event occurs at a large site, local authorities will control
immediate clean up (water placed on the wreckage by the fire department) and
site access.

At some point, the companies will become involved with local authorities in the
overall planning associated with site clean up and restoration. Depending on the
clean up approach taken, delays in the restoration of several hours to several
days may occur.

In a less severe disaster, items listed above are more defined and can be
addressed individually depending on the damage.

In each case, the majority owner should coordinate building and environmental
restoration as well as maintain proper planning and site control.

4.0      THE EMERGENCY CONTROL CENTER (ECC)

The ECC is located in the Colonnade Building in Birmingham, Alabama. During an
emergency, the ECC staff will convene a group of pre-selected experts to
inventory the damage and initiate corrective actions. These experts have
regional access to BellSouth's personnel and equipment and will assume control
of the restoration activity anywhere in the nine state area.
<PAGE>

                                                                       EXHIBIT A
                                                                 OF ATTACHMENT 6
                                                                          PAGE 6

In the past, the ECC has been involve with restoration activities resulting from
hurricanes, ice storms and floods. They have demonstrated their capabilities
during these calamities as well as during outages caused by human error or
equipment failures. This group has an excellent record of restoring service as
quickly as possible.

During a major disaster, the ECC may move emergency equipment to the affected
location, direct recovery efforts of local personnel and coordinate service
restoration activities with the CLECs. The ECC will attempt to restore service
as quickly as possible using whatever means are available; leaving permanent
solutions, such as the replacement of damaged buildings or equipment, for local
personnel to administer.

Part of the ECC's responsibility, after temporary equipment is in place, is to
support the NMC efforts to return service to the CLECs. Once service has been
restored, the ECC will return control of the network to normal operational
organizations. Any long-term changes required after service is restored will be
made in an orderly fashion and will be conducted as normal activity.

5.0      RECOVERY PROCEDURES

The nature and severity of any disaster will influence the recovery procedures.
One crucial factor in determining how BellSouth will proceed with restoration is
whether or not BellSouth's equipment is incapacitated. Regardless of who's
equipment is out of service, BellSouth will move as quickly as possible to aid
with service recovery; however, the approach that will be taken may differ
depending upon the location of the problem.

5.1      CLEC OUTAGE

For a problem limited to one CLEC (or a building with multiple CLECs), BellSouth
has several options available for restoring service quickly. For those CLECs
that have agreements with other CLECs, BellSouth can immediately start directing
traffic to a provisional CLEC for completion. This alternative is dependent upon
BellSouth having concurrence from the affected CLECs.

Whether or not the affected CLECs have requested a traffic transfer to another
CLEC will not impact BellSouth's resolve to re-establish traffic to the original
destination as quickly as possible.

5.2      BELLSOUTH OUTAGE

Because BellSouth's equipment has varying degrees of impact on the service
provided to the CLECs, restoring service from damaged BellSouth equipment is
different. The outage will probably impact a number of Carriers simultaneously.
However, the ECC will be able to initiate immediate actions to correct the
problem.
<PAGE>

                                                                       EXHIBIT A
                                                                 OF ATTACHMENT 6
                                                                          PAGE 7

A disaster involving any of BellSouth's equipment locations could impact the
CLECs, some more than others. A disaster at a Central Office (CO) would only
impact the delivery of traffic to and from that one location, but the incident
could affect many Carriers. If the Central Office is a Serving Wire Center
(SWC), then traffic from the entire area to those Carriers served from that
switch would also be impacted. If the switch functions as an Access Tandem, or
there is a tandem in the building, traffic from every CO to every CLEC could be
interrupted. A disaster that destroys a facility hub could disrupt various
traffic flows, even though the switching equipment may be unaffected.

The NMC would be the first group to observe a problem involving BellSouth's
equipment. Shortly after a disaster, the NMC will begin applying controls and
finding reroutes for the completion of as much traffic as possible. These
reroutes may involve delivering traffic to alternate Carriers upon receiving
approval from affected carriers and notification of the CLECs involved. In some
cases, changes in translations will be required. If the outage is caused by the
destruction of equipment, then the ECC will assume control of the restoration.

5.2.1    LOSS OF A CENTRAL OFFICE

When BellSouth loses a Central Office, the ECC will

         a) place specialists and emergency equipment on notice;

         b) inventory the damage to determine what equipment and/or functions
         are lost;

         c) move containerized emergency equipment and facility equipment to the
         stricken area, if necessary;

         d) begin reconnecting service for Hospitals, Police and other emergency
         agency customers of CLECs and BellSouth in a nondiscriminatory manner
         in accordance with NSEP-TSP guidelines; and

         e) begin restoring service to CLECs and other customers.

5.2.2    LOSS OF A CENTRAL OFFICE WITH SERVING WIRE CENTER FUNCTIONS

The loss of a Central Office that also serves as a Serving Wire Center (SWC),
will be restored as described in section 5.2.1.

5.2.3    LOSS OF A CENTRAL OFFICE WITH TANDEM FUNCTIONS

When BellSouth loses a Central Office building that serves as an Access Tandem
and as a SWC, the ECC will

         a) place specialists and emergency equipment on notice;

         b) inventory the damage to determine what equipment and/or functions
         are lost;

         c) move containerized emergency equipment and facility equipment to the
         stricken area, if necessary;
<PAGE>

                                                                       EXHIBIT A
                                                                 OF ATTACHMENT 6
                                                                          PAGE 8

         d) begin reconnecting service for Hospitals, Police and other emergency
         agency customers of CLECs and BellSouth in a nondiscriminatory manner
         in accordance with NSEP-TSP guidelines; and

         e) redirect as much traffic as possible to the alternate access tandem
         (if available) for delivery to those CLECs utilizing a different
         location as a SWC;

         f) begin aggregating traffic to a location near the damaged building.
         From this location, begin re-establishing trunk groups to the CLECs for
         the delivery of traffic normally found on the direct trunk groups.
         (This aggregation point may be the alternate access tandem location or
         another CO on a primary facility route.)

         g) begin restoring service to CLECs and other customers.

5.2.4    LOSS OF A FACILITY HUB

In the event that BellSouth loses a facility hub, the recovery process is much
the same as above. Once the NMC has observed the problem and administered the
appropriate controls, the ECC will assume authority for the repairs. The
recovery effort will include

         a) placing specialists and emergency equipment on notice;

         b) inventorying the damage to determine what equipment and/or functions
         are lost;

         c) moving containerized emergency equipment to the stricken area, if
         necessary;

         d) reconnecting service for Hospitals, Police and other emergency
         agency customers of CLECs and BellSouth in a nondiscriminatory manner
         in accordance with NSEP-TSP guidelines; and

         e) restoring service to CLECs and other customers. If necessary,
         BellSouth will aggregate the traffic at another location and build
         temporary facilities. This alternative would be viable for a location
         that is destroyed and building repairs are required.

5.3      COMBINED OUTAGE (CLEC AND BELLSOUTH EQUIPMENT)

In some instances, a disaster may impact BellSouth's equipment as well as the
CLECs'. This situation will be handled in much the same way as described in
section 5.2.3. Since BellSouth and the CLECs will be utilizing temporary
equipment, close coordination will be required.

6.0      T1 IDENTIFICATION PROCEDURES
<PAGE>

                                                                       EXHIBIT A
                                                                 OF ATTACHMENT 6

During the restoration of service after a disaster, BellSouth may be forced to
aggregate traffic for delivery to an CLEC. During this process, T1 traffic may
be consolidated onto DS3s and may become unidentifiable to the Carrier. Because
resources will be limited, BellSouth may be forced to "package" this traffic
entirely differently then normally received by the CLECs. Therefore, a method
for identifying the T1 traffic on the DS3s and providing the information to the
Carriers is required.

                   BILLING AND BILLING ACCURACY CERTIFICATION

1.        PAYMENT AND BILLING ARRANGEMENTS

          1.1     BILLING. Currently, BellSouth provides billing through the
                  Carrier Access Billing System (CABS) and through the Customer
                  Records Information System (CRIS) depending on the particular
                  service(s) that ITC/\DeltaCom requests. BellSouth will bill
                  and record in accordance with this agreement those charges
                  ITC/\DeltaCom incurs as a result of ITC/\DeltaCom purchasing
                  from BellSouth Network Elements, Combinations, and Local
                  Services, as set forth in this agreement. BellSouth will
                  format all bills in CBOS Standard or CLUB/EDI format,
                  depending on the type of service ordered. BellSouth's bills to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom for unbundled network elements and resold
                  services purchased by ITC/\DeltaCom shall include the item,
                  quantity and price of such purchased services. For those
                  services where standards have not yet been developed,
                  BellSouth's billing format will change as necessary when
                  standards are finalized by the Ordering and Billing Forum
                  (OBF).

                  1.1.1  If ITC/\DeltaCom requests multiple billing media or
                         additional copies of bills BellSouth will provide these
                         at a reasonable cost.

          1.2     MASTER ACCOUNT. If ITC/\DeltaCom has not already done so,
                  after receiving certification as a local exchange company from
                  the appropriate regulatory agency, ITC/\DeltaCom will provide
                  the appropriate BellSouth service center the necessary
                  documentation to enable BellSouth to establish a master
                  account for resold services. Such documentation shall include
                  the Application for Master Account, proof of authority to
                  provide telecommunications services, an Operating Company
                  Number ("OCN") assigned by the National Exchange Carriers
                  Association ("NECA") and a tax exemption certificate, if
                  applicable. To the extent applicable, BellSouth shall maintain
                  an account under which ITC/\DeltaCom shall bill BellSouth for
                  services provided pursuant to this Agreement.

          1.3     PAYMENT RESPONSIBILITY. Payment of all charges will be the
                  responsibility of ITC/\DeltaCom or BellSouth as applicable.
                  ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth shall make payment to each other
                  for all services billed. Neither Party shall be responsible
                  for payments not received by the other Party's customers.
                  Neither Party shall become involved in billing disputes that
                  may arise between the other Party and its customers. Payments
                  made by either Party as payment on account shall be credited
                  to an accounts receivable master account and not to an end
                  user's account.

          1.4     PAYMENT DUE. The payment shall be due by the next bill date
                  (i.e., same date in the following month as the bill date)
                  ("Payment Due Date") and is
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 7
                                                                          PAGE 2

                  payable in immediately available funds. Payment is considered
                  to have been made when received.

                  1.4.1  If the payment due date falls on a Sunday or on a
                         Holiday which is observed on a Monday, the payment due
                         date shall be the first non-Holiday day following such
                         Sunday or Holiday. If the payment due date falls on a
                         Saturday or on a Holiday which is observed on Tuesday,
                         Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday, the payment due date
                         shall be the last non-Holiday day preceding such
                         Saturday or Holiday. If payment is not received by the
                         payment due date, a late payment penalty, as set forth
                         in Section 1.7, below, shall apply.

          1.5     TAX EXEMPTION. Upon proof of tax exempt certification, the
                  total amount billed shall not include any taxes due from the
                  end user. The Retail Service provider shall be solely
                  responsible for the computation, tracking, reporting and
                  payment of all federal, state and/or local jurisdiction taxes
                  associated with the services resold to the end user.

          1.6     MISCELLANEOUS. As the customer of record for resold services,
                  ITC/\DeltaCom shall be responsible for, and remit to
                  BellSouth, all charges applicable to its resold services for
                  emergency services (E911 and 911) and Telecommunications Relay
                  Service (TRS) as well as any other charges of a similar
                  nature.

          1.7     LATE PAYMENT. If any portion of the payment is received by the
                  billing party after the payment due date as set forth
                  preceding, or if any portion of the payment is received in
                  funds that are not immediately available to the billing party,
                  then a late payment penalty shall be due to the billing party.
                  The late payment penalty shall be the portion of the payment
                  not received by the payment due date times a late factor. The
                  late factor shall be as set forth in Section A2 of BellSouth's
                  General Subscriber Service Tariff, Section B2 of BellSouth's
                  Private Line Service Tariff or Section E2 of the Intrastate
                  Access Tariff or the applicable ITC/\DeltaCom tariff as
                  appropriate.

          1.8     ACCESS CHARGES FOR RESOLD SERVICES. Any switched access
                  charges associated with interexchange carrier access to the
                  resold local exchange lines will be billed by, and due to,
                  BellSouth. No additional charges are to be assessed to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom.

          1.9     END USER COMMON LINE CHARGE FOR RESOLD SERVICES. Pursuant to
                  47 CFR Section 51.617, BellSouth will bill ITC/\DeltaCom end
                  user common line charges identical to the end user common line
                  charges BellSouth bills its end users.

          1.10    DISCONTINUING SERVICE. The procedures for discontinuing
                  service to ITC/\DeltaCom or BellSouth are as follows:

                  1.10.1 Each party reserves the right to suspend or terminate
                         service for nonpayment in accordance with applicable
                         state and federal regulations.

                  1.10.2 If payment of account is not received by the bill day
                         in the month after the original bill day, the billing
                         Party may provide written notice to the other Party
                         that additional applications for service will be
                         refused and that any pending orders for service will
                         not be completed if payment is not received by the
                         fifteenth day following the date of the notice. In
                         addition the billing party may, at the same time, give
                         thirty days notice to the person designated by the
                         other party to receive notices of noncompliance, to
                         discontinue the provision of existing services at any
                         time thereafter.

                  1.10.3 In the case of such discontinuance, all billed charges,
                         as well as applicable termination charges, shall become
                         due.

                  1.10.4 If the billing party does not discontinue the provision
                         of the services involved on the date specified in the
                         thirty days notice and the other Party's noncompliance
                         continues, nothing contained herein shall preclude the
                         billing party's right to discontinue the provision of
                         the services without further notice.

                  1.10.5 If payment is not received or satisfactory arrangements
                         made for payment by the date given in the written
                         notification, the billed party's services may be
                         discontinued. Upon discontinuance of service on the
                         billed party's account, service to the billed party's
                         end users will be denied. The billing party will
                         reestablish service at the request of the end user or
                         the other Party upon payment of the appropriate
                         connection fee and subject to the billing party's 's
                         normal application procedures. The billed party is
                         solely responsible for notifying the end user of the
                         proposed service disconnection.

                  1.10.6 If within fifteen days after an end user's service has
                         been denied no contact has been made in reference to
                         restoring service, the end user's service shall be
                         disconnected.

          1.11    DEPOSIT POLICY. Either Party may be required to provide
                  information regarding credit worthiness. If either Party
                  repeatedly fails to pay undisputed billed charges by the
                  Payment due date or its financial condition deteriorates
                  materially, such party may be required to provide information
                  regarding credit worthiness. Based on the results of the
                  credit
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 7
                                                                          PAGE 4

                  analysis, the Party providing services reserves the right to
                  secure the account with a suitable form of security deposit.
                  Such security deposit may take the form of an irrevocable
                  Letter of Credit or in its sole discretion some other form of
                  security acceptable to the Party providing service. Any such
                  security deposit shall in no way release the customer from its
                  obligation to make complete and timely payments of its bill.
                  Such security may be required prior to the inauguration of
                  service. If, in the sole opinion of the Party providing
                  service, circumstances so warrant and/or gross monthly billing
                  has increased beyond the level initially used to determine the
                  level of security, the Party providing service reserves the
                  right to request additional security. Interest on a security
                  deposit shall accrue and be refunded in accordance with the
                  terms in the appropriate tariff of the Party providing
                  service.

2.        BILLING AND BILLING ACCURACY CERTIFICATION

          2.1     At the option of ITC/\DeltaCom, BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom
                  shall mutually agree upon a billing quality assurance program
                  for all billing elements covered in this Agreement that shall
                  eliminate the need for post-billing reconciliation.
                  Appropriate terms for access to any BellSouth documents,
                  systems, records, and procedures for the recording and billing
                  of charges shall be part of that program.

          2.2     As part of the billing quality assurance program, BellSouth
                  and ITC/\DeltaCom will develop standards, measurements, and
                  performance requirements for a local billing measurements
                  process. On a regular basis the billing party will provide the
                  other party with mutually agreed upon performance measurement
                  data that substantiates the accuracy, reliability, and
                  integrity of the billing process for local billing. In return,
                  each party shall pay all bills received from the other party
                  in full by the payment due date.

          2.3     Local billing discrepancies will be addressed in an orderly
                  manner via a mutually agreed upon billing exemption process.

                  2.3.1  Each party agrees to notify the other Party upon
                         identifying a billing discrepancy. The Parties shall
                         endeavor to resolve any billing discrepancy within
                         sixty (60) calendar days of the notification date. A
                         mutually agreed upon escalation process shall be
                         established for resolving local billing discrepancies
                         as part of the billing quality assurance program.

                  2.3.2  Closure of a specific billing period shall occur by
                         joint agreement of the Parties whereby the Parties
                         agree that such billing period is closed to any further
                         analysis and financial transactions except those
                         resulting from regulatory mandates. Closure will take
                         place
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 7
                                                                          PAGE 5

                         within a mutually agreed upon time interval from the
                         Bill Date. The month being closed represents those
                         charges that were billed or should have been billed by
                         the designated Bill Date.

3.        BILLING DISPUTES

          3.1     Where the parties have not agreed upon a billing quality
                  assurance program, billing disputes shall be handled pursuant
                  to the terms of this section. Provided, that nothing herein
                  shall preclude either party from filing complaints, at any
                  time, in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions
                  included in the General Terms and Conditions to the Agreement.

          3.2     Each Party agrees to notify the other Party upon the discovery
                  of a billing dispute. In the event of a billing dispute, the
                  Parties will endeavor to resolve the dispute within sixty (60)
                  calendar days of the Bill Date on which such disputed charges
                  appear. Resolution of the dispute is expected to occur at the
                  first level of management resulting in a recommendation for
                  settlement of the dispute and closure of a specific billing
                  period. If the issues are not resolved within the allotted
                  time frame, the following resolution procedure will begin.

          3.3     If the dispute is not resolved within sixty (60) days of the
                  Bill Date, the dispute will be escalated to the second level
                  of management for each of the respective Parties for
                  resolution. If the dispute is not resolved within ninety (90)
                  days of the Bill Date, the dispute will be escalated to the
                  third level of management for each of the respective Parties
                  for resolution.

                  If the dispute is not resolved within one hundred and twenty
                  (120) days of the Bill Date, the dispute will be escalated to
                  the fourth level of management for each of the respective
                  Parties for resolution.

          3.4     If a Party disputes a charge and does not pay such charge by
                  the payment due date, such charges shall be subject to late
                  payment charges as set forth in the Late Payment Charges
                  provision of this Attachment. If a Party disputes charges and
                  the dispute is resolved in favor of such Party, the other
                  Party shall credit the bill of the disputing Party for the
                  amount of the disputed charges along with any late payment
                  charges assessed no later than the second Bill Date after the
                  resolution of the dispute. Accordingly, if a Party disputes
                  charges and the dispute is resolved in favor of the other
                  Party, the disputing Party shall pay the other Party the
                  amount of the disputed charges and any associated late payment
                  charges assessed no later than the second bill payment due
                  date after the resolution of the dispute. In no event,
                  however, shall any late payment charges be assessed on any
                  previously assessed late payment charges.

4.       RAO HOSTING

          4.1     RAO Hosting, Credit Card and Third Number Settlement System
                  (CATS) and Non-Intercompany Settlement System (NICS) services
                  provided to ITC/\DeltaCom by BellSouth will be in accordance
                  with the methods and practices regularly adopted and applied
                  by BellSouth to its own operations during the term of this
                  Agreement, including such revisions as may be made from time
                  to time by BellSouth.

          4.2     ITC/\DeltaCom shall furnish all relevant information required
                  by BellSouth for the provision of RAO Hosting, CATS and NICS.

          4.3     Applicable compensation amounts will be billed by BellSouth to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom on a monthly basis in arrears. Amounts due from
                  one Party to the other (excluding adjustments) are payable
                  within thirty (30) days of receipt of the billing statement.

          4.4     ITC/\DeltaCom must have its own unique RAO code. Requests for
                  establishment of RAO status where BellSouth is the selected
                  CMDS interfacing host, require written notification from
                  ITC/\DeltaCom to the BellSouth RAO Hosting coordinator at
                  least eight (8) weeks prior to the proposed effective date.
                  The proposed effective date will be mutually agreed upon
                  between the Parties with consideration given to time necessary
                  for the completion of required BellCore functions. BellSouth
                  will request the assignment of an RAO code from its connecting
                  contractor on behalf of ITC/\DeltaCom and will coordinate all
                  associated conversion activities.

          4.5     BellSouth will receive messages from ITC/\DeltaCom that are to
                  be processed by BellSouth, another LEC or CLEC in the
                  BellSouth region or a LEC outside the BellSouth region.

          4.6     BellSouth will perform invoice sequence checking, standard EMI
                  format editing, and balancing of message data with the EMI
                  trailer record counts on all data received from ITC/\DeltaCom.

          4.7     All data received from ITC/\DeltaCom that is to be processed
                  or billed by another LEC or CLEC within the BellSouth region
                  will be distributed to that LEC or CLEC in accordance with the
                  agreement(s) which may be in effect between BellSouth and the
                  involved LEC or CLEC.

          4.8     All data received from ITC/\DeltaCom that is to be placed on
                  the CMDS network for distribution outside the BellSouth region
                  will be handled in accordance with the agreement(s) which may
                  be in effect between BellSouth and its connecting contractor.

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 7
                                                                          PAGE 7

          4.9     BellSouth will receive messages from the CMDS network that are
                  destined to be processed by ITC/\DeltaCom and will forward
                  them to ITC/\DeltaCom on a daily basis.

          4.10    Transmission of message data between BellSouth and
                  ITC/\DeltaCom will be VIA CONNECT:DIRECT.

          4.11    All messages and related data exchanged between BellSouth and
                  ITC/\DeltaCom will be formatted in accordance with accepted
                  industry standards for EMI formatted records and packed
                  between appropriate EMI header and trailer records, also in
                  accordance with accepted industry standards.

          4.12    ITC/\DeltaCom will ensure that the recorded message detail
                  necessary to recreate files provided to BellSouth will be
                  maintained for back-up purposes for a period of three (3)
                  calendar months beyond the related message dates.

          4.13    Should it become necessary for ITC/\DeltaCom to send data to
                  BellSouth more than sixty (60) days past the message date(s),
                  ITC/\DeltaCom will notify BellSouth in advance of the
                  transmission of the data. If there will be impacts outside the
                  BellSouth region, BellSouth will work with its connecting
                  contractor and ITC/\DeltaCom to notify all affected Parties.

          4.14    In the event that data to be exchanged between the two Parties
                  should become lost or destroyed, both Parties shall work
                  together to determine the source of the problem. Once the
                  cause of the problem has been jointly determined and the
                  responsible Party (BellSouth or ITC/\DeltaCom) identified and
                  agreed to, the company responsible for creating the data
                  (BellSouth or ITC/\DeltaCom) shall make every effort to have
                  the affected data restored and retransmitted. If the data
                  cannot be retrieved, the responsible Party will be liable to
                  the other Party for any resulting lost revenue. Lost revenue
                  may be a combination of revenues that could not be billed to
                  the end users and associated access revenues. Both Parties
                  will work together to estimate the revenue amount based upon a
                  reasonable estimate of three to twelve months of prior usage.
                  The resulting estimated revenue loss will be paid by the
                  responsible Party to the other Party within three (3) calendar
                  months of the date of problem resolution, or as mutually
                  agreed upon by the Parties. If access usage data is not
                  processed and delivered by either Party in a timely manner
                  such that the other Party is unable to bill the IXC, the
                  responsible Party shall be liable for the amount of lost
                  revenue. The Parties agree that the term "timely manner" as
                  used herein shall be defined in accordance with OBF
                  guidelines. Until such time as OBF addresses this issue, the
                  term "timely manner" shall be reasonably determined on a case

          4.15    Should an error be detected by the EMI format edits performed
                  by BellSouth on data received from ITC/\DeltaCom, the entire
                  pack containing the affected data will not be processed by
                  BellSouth. BellSouth will notify ITC/\DeltaCom of the error
                  condition. ITC/\DeltaCom will correct the error(s) and will
                  resend the entire pack to BellSouth for processing. In the
                  event that an out-of-sequence condition occurs on subsequent
                  packs, ITC/\DeltaCom will resend these packs to BellSouth
                  after the pack containing the error has been successfully
                  reprocessed by BellSouth. Both Parties agree to provide the
                  other Party notification of any discovered errors within 7
                  business days of the discovery.

          4.16    In association with message distribution service, BellSouth
                  will provide ITC/\DeltaCom with associated intercompany
                  settlements reports (CATS and NICS) as appropriate.

          4.17    Other than as specified in Section 4.14 and 4.15 above, in no
                  case shall either Party be liable to the other for any direct
                  or consequential damages incurred as a result of the
                  obligations set out in this agreement.

                         is originated by or billed by ITC/\DeltaCom, involves a
                         company other than ITC/\DeltaCom, qualifies for
                         inclusion in the CATS settlement, and is not originated
                         or billed within the BellSouth region (NICS).

                  4.19.3 Revenues associated with calls originated and billed
                         within the BellSouth region will be settled via
                         BellCore's, its successor or assign, NICS system.

                  4.19.4 BellSouth shall receive the monthly NICS reports from
                         BellCore, its successor or assign, on behalf of
                         ITC/\DeltaCom. BellSouth will distribute copies of
                         these reports to ITC/\DeltaCom on a monthly basis.

                  4.19.5 BellSouth shall receive the monthly Credit Card and
                         Third Number Settlement System (CATS) reports from
                         BellCore, its successor or assign, on behalf of
                         ITC/\DeltaCom. BellSouth will distribute copies of
                         these reports to ITC/\DeltaCom on a monthly basis.

                  4.19.6 BellSouth shall collect the revenue earned by
                         ITC/\DeltaCom from the operating company in whose
                         territory the messages are billed (CATS), less a per
                         message billing and collection fee of five cents
                         ($0.05), on behalf of ITC/\DeltaCom. BellSouth will
                         remit the revenue billed by ITC/\DeltaCom to the

                         message billing and collection fee of five cents
                         ($0.05), on behalf of ITC/\DeltaCom. These two amounts
                         will be netted together by BellSouth and the resulting
                         charge or credit issued to ITC/\DeltaCom via a monthly
                         Carrier Access Billing System (CABS) miscellaneous
                         bill.

                         ITC/\DeltaCom within the BellSouth territory from
                         another CLEC also within the BellSouth territory (NICS)
                         where the messages are billed, less a per message
                         billing and collection fee of five cents ($0.05), on
                         behalf of ITC/\DeltaCom. BellSouth will remit the
                         revenue billed by ITC/\DeltaCom within the BellSouth
                         region to the CLEC also within the BellSouth region,
                         where the messages originated, less a per message

                         two amounts will be netted together by BellSouth and
                         the resulting charge or credit issued to ITC/\DeltaCom
                         via a monthly Carrier Access Billing System (CABS)
                         miscellaneous bill.

                         BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom agree that monthly netted
                         amounts of less than fifty dollars ($50.00) shall not
                         be settled.

                  5.6.1.4 In the event that ITC/\DeltaCom detects a duplicate on
                          Optional Daily Usage File they receive from BellSouth,
                          ITC/\DeltaCom will drop the duplicate message
                          (ITC/\DeltaCom will not return the duplicate to
                          BellSouth).

          5.6.2   Physical File Characteristics

                  5.6.2.1 The Optional Daily Usage File will be distributed to
                          ITC/\DeltaCom via an agreed medium with CONNECT:Direct
                          being the preferred transport method. The Daily Usage
                          Feed will be a variable block format (2476) with an
                          LRECL of 2472. The data on the Daily Usage Feed will
                          be in a non-compacted EMI format (175 byte format plus
                          modules). It will be created on a daily basis (Monday
                          through Friday except holidays). Details such as
                          dataset name and delivery schedule will be addressed
                          during negotiations of the distribution medium. There

                          computer and to transmit successfully ongoing will be
                          negotiated on a case by case basis. Where a dial-up
                          facility is required, dial circuits will be installed
                          in the BellSouth data center by BellSouth and the
                          associated charges assessed to ITC/\DeltaCom.
                          Additionally, all message toll charges associated with
                          the use of the dial circuit by ITC/\DeltaCom will be
                          the responsibility of ITC/\DeltaCom. Associated
                          equipment on the BellSouth end, including a modem,
                          will be negotiated on a case by case basis between the
                          parties. All equipment, including modems and software,
                          that is required on the ITC/\DeltaCom end for the
                          purpose of data transmission will be the

                          record and a pack trailer record. One transmission can
                          contain a maximum of 99 packs and a minimum of one
                          pack.

                  5.6.3.2 The OCN, From RAO, and Invoice Number will control the
                          invoice sequencing. The From RAO will be used to
                          identify to ITC/\DeltaCom which BellSouth RAO that is
                          sending the message. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom will
                          use the invoice sequencing to control data exchange.
                          BellSouth will be notified of sequence failures
                          identified by ITC/\DeltaCom and resend the data as
                          appropriate.

                          The data will be packed using ATIS EMI records.

          5.6.4   Pack Rejection

                  5.6.4.1 ITC/\DeltaCom shall notify BellSouth within one
                          business day of rejected packs (via the mutually
                          agreed medium). Packs could be rejected because of
                          pack sequencing discrepancies or a critical edit
                          failure on the Pack Header or Pack Trailer records
                          (i.e. out-of-balance condition on grand totals,
                          invalid data populated). Standard ATIS EMI Error Codes
                          will be used. ITC/\DeltaCom will not be required to
                          return the actual rejected data to BellSouth. Rejected
                          packs will be corrected and retransmitted to
                          ITC/\DeltaCom by BellSouth.

          5.6.5   Control Data

                  ITC/\DeltaCom will send one confirmation record per pack that
                  is received from BellSouth. This confirmation record will
                  indicate ITC/\DeltaCom received the pack and the acceptance or
                  rejection of the pack. Pack Status Code(s) will be populated
                  using standard ATIS EMI error codes for packs that were
                  rejected by ITC/\DeltaCom for reasons stated in the above
                  section.

          5.6.6   Testing

                  5.6.6.1 Upon request from ITC/\DeltaCom BellSouth shall send
                         test files to ITC/\DeltaCom for the Optional Daily
                         Usage File. The parties agree to review and discuss the
                         file's content and/or format. For testing of usage
                         results, BellSouth shall request that ITC/\DeltaCom set
                         up a production (LIVE) file. The live test may consist
                         of ITC/\DeltaCom's employees making test calls for the
                         types of services ITC/\DeltaCom requests on the
                         Optional Daily Usage File. These test calls

                        EXHIBIT A ACCESS DAILY USAGE FILE

1.        SCOPE OF EXHIBIT

          1.1     Upon request from ITC/\DeltaCom, BellSouth will provide the
                  Access Daily Usage File service to ITC/\DeltaCom pursuant to
                  the rates, terms and conditions set forth in this exhibit.

2.        GENERAL INFORMATION

          2.1     ITC/\DeltaCom shall furnish the following information required
                  by BellSouth for the provision of the Access Daily Usage File:
                  (1) ITC/\DeltaCom's preference for either transmitted files or
                  magnetic tapes, (2) ITC/\DeltaCom's transmission sites, (3)
                  the data set names to be used, (4) the software to be executed
                  on receipt of the files, and (5) other LAN-to-LAN connectivity
                  information.

          2.2     The Access Daily Usage File will contain access records
                  associated with an unbundled port that ITC/\DeltaCom has
                  purchased from BellSouth. Charges for the Access Daily Usage
                  File will be as follows:

                  $0.004 per message - Message Distribution/$0.001 per message -
                  Data Transmission (CONNECT:Direct)/$54.95 per magnetic tape

                  Charges for delivery of the Access Daily Usage Feed will
                  appear on ITC/\DeltaCom's monthly bills.

          2.3     All messages provided with the Access Daily Usage File will be
                  in the standard Bellcore EMI record format.

          2.4     Messages that error in the billing system of ITC/\DeltaCom
                  will be the responsibility of ITC/\DeltaCom. If, however,
                  ITC/\DeltaCom should encounter significant volumes of errored
                  messages that prevent processing by ITC/\DeltaCom within its
                  systems, BellSouth will work with ITC/\DeltaCom to determine
                  the source of the errors and the appropriate resolution.

3.        USAGE TO BE TRANSMITTED

          3.1     The following messages recorded by BellSouth will be
                  transmitted to ITC/\DeltaCom:

                         -  Interstate access records associated with an
                            unbundled port
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 7
                                                                         PAGE 17

                         -  Intrastate access records associated with an
                            unbundled port

                         -  Undetermined jurisdiction access records associated
                            with an unbundled port

          3.2     When ITC/\DeltaCom purchases Network Element ports from
                  BellSouth and calls are made using these ports, BellSouth will
                  handle the calls as follows:

                  Originating from Network Element and carried by Interexchange
                  Carrier:

                         BellSouth will bill network element to CLEC and send
                         access record to the CLEC via ADUF

                  Originating from network element and carried by BellSouth
                  (ITC/\DeltaCom is BellSouth's toll customer):

                         BellSouth will bill resale toll rates to ITC/\DeltaCom
                         and send toll record for the end user toll billing
                         purposes via ODUF (Optional Daily Usage File). Access
                         record will be sent to ITC/\DeltaCom via ADUF.

                  Terminating on network element and carried by Interexchange
                  Carrier:

                         BellSouth will bill network element to ITC/\DeltaCom
                         and send access record to ITC/\DeltaCom.

                  Terminating on network element and carried by BellSouth:

                  BellSouth will bill network element to ITC/\DeltaCom and send
                  access record to ITC/\DeltaCom.

          3.3     BellSouth will perform duplicate record checks on records
                  processed to the Access Daily Usage File. Any duplicate
                  messages detected will be dropped and not sent to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom.

          3.4     In the event that ITC/\DeltaCom detects a duplicate on the
                  Access Daily Usage File they receive from BellSouth,
                  ITC/\DeltaCom will drop the duplicate message (ITC/\DeltaCom
                  shall not return the duplicate to BellSouth).

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 7
                                                                         PAGE 18

4.        FILE CHARACTERISTICS AND TRANSMISSION METHOD

          4.1     The Access Daily Usage Feed will be distributed to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom via an agreed upon medium with CONNECT:Direct
                  being the preferred transport method. The Access Daily Usage
                  Feed will be a fixed block format (2476) with an LRECL of
                  2472. The data on the Access Daily Usage Feed will be in a
                  non-compacted EMI format (210 byte format plus modules). It
                  will be created on a daily basis (Monday through Friday except
                  holidays). Details such as dataset name and delivery schedule
                  will be addressed during negotiations of the distribution
                  medium. There will be one dataset per workday per OCN.

          4.2     Data circuits (private line or dial-up) may be required
                  between BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom for the purpose of data
                  transmission. Where a dedicated line is required,
                  ITC/\DeltaCom will be responsible for ordering the circuit,
                  overseeing its installation and coordinating the installation
                  with BellSouth. ITC/\DeltaCom will also be responsible for any
                  charges associated with this line. Equipment required on the
                  BellSouth end to attach the line to the mainframe computer and
                  to transmit successfully ongoing will be negotiated on a case
                  by case basis. Where a dial-up facility is required, dial
                  circuits will be installed in the BellSouth data center by
                  BellSouth and the associated charges assessed to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom. Additionally, all message toll charges
                  associated with the use of the dial circuit by ITC/\DeltaCom
                  will be the responsibility of ITC/\DeltaCom. Associated
                  equipment on the BellSouth end, including a modem, will be
                  negotiated on a case by case basis between the parties. All
                  equipment, including modems and software, that is required on
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's end for the purpose of data transmission will
                  be the responsibility of ITC/\DeltaCom.

5.        PACKING SPECIFICATIONS

          5.1     A pack will contain a minimum of one message record or a
                  maximum of 99,999 message records plus a pack header record
                  and a pack trailer record. One transmission can contain a
                  maximum of 99 packs and a minimum of one pack.

          5.2     The OCN, From RAO, and Invoice Number will control the invoice
                  sequencing. The From RAO will be used to identify to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom which BellSouth RAO that is sending the message.
                  BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom will use the invoice sequencing to
                  control data exchange. BellSouth will be notified of sequence
                  failures identified by ITC/\DeltaCom and resend the data as
                  appropriate.

                  The data will be packed using EMI records.

                                                                         PAGE 19

6.        PACK REJECTION

          6.1     ITC/\DeltaCom will notify BellSouth within one business day of
                  rejected packs (via the mutually agreed medium). Packs could
                  be rejected because of pack sequencing discrepancies or a
                  critical edit failure on the Pack Header or Pack Trailer
                  records (i.e. out-of-balance condition on grand totals,
                  invalid data populated). ITC/\DeltaCom will not be required to
                  return the actual rejected data to BellSouth. Rejected packs
                  will be corrected and/or retransmitted to ITC/\DeltaCom by
                  BellSouth.

7.        CONTROL DATA

          7.1     ITC/\DeltaCom will send one confirmation record per pack that
                  is received from BellSouth. This confirmation record will
                  indicate ITC/\DeltaCom received the pack and the acceptance or
                  rejection of the pack. Pack status Code(s) will be populated
                  using standard Bellcore EMI codes for packs that were rejected
                  by ITC/\DeltaCom for reasons stated in the above section.

8.        TESTING

                 BONA FIDE REQUEST/NEW BUSINESS REQUEST PROCESS

1.0      The Parties agree that ITC/\DeltaCom is entitled to order any network
         element, interconnection option, service option or other Resale service
         required to be made available by the Telecommunications Act of 1996,
         FCC requirements or State Commission requirements. Procedures
         applicable to requesting the addition of such facilities or service
         options are specified in this Attachment 9 and referenced in Section 5
         of the General Terms and Conditions.

2.0      Bona Fide Requests ("BFR") are to be used when ITC/\DeltaCom makes a
         request of BellSouth to provide a new or modified network element,
         interconnection option, or other service option pursuant to the Act; or
         to provide a new or custom capability or function to meet
         ITC/\DeltaCom's business needs; that were not previously included in
         the Agreement. The BFR process is intended to facilitate the two way
         exchange of information between the requesting Party and BellSouth,
         necessary for accurate processing of requests in a consistent and
         timely fashion.

3.0      A Bona Fide Request shall be submitted in writing by ITC/\DeltaCom and
         shall specifically identify the required service date, technical
         requirements, space requirements and/or such specifications that
         clearly define the request such that BellSouth has sufficient
         information to analyze and prepare a response. Such a request also
         shall include a ITC/\DeltaCom's designation of the request as being (i)
         pursuant to the Telecommunications Act of 1996 or (ii) pursuant to the
         needs of the business. The request shall be sent to ITC/\DeltaCom's
         Account Executive.

4.0      ITC/\DeltaCom may cancel a BFR at any time. If ITC/\DeltaCom cancels
         the request more than thirty (30) business days after submitting it,
         ITC/\DeltaCom shall pay BellSouth's reasonable and demonstrable costs
         of processing and/or implementing the BFR up to the date of
         cancellation. If ITC/\DeltaCom does not cancel a BFR, ITC/\DeltaCom
         shall pay BellSouth's reasonable and demonstrable costs of processing
         and implementing the request.

5.0      Within twenty (20) Business Days of its receipt of a BFR from
         ITC/\DeltaCom, BellSouth shall respond via email or overnight delivery
         to ITC/\DeltaCom by providing a preliminary analysis of such
         Interconnection, Network Element, or requested level of quality thereof
         that is the subject of the BFR. The preliminary analysis shall confirm
         that BellSouth will either offer access to the Interconnection, Network
         Element, or requested level of quality or provide an explanation of why
         it is not technically feasible and/or why the request does not qualify
         as an Interconnection, Network Element, or requested level of quality
         that is

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 9
                                                                          PAGE 1

         required to be provided under the Act. If BellSouth determines that the
         Interconnection, Network Element, or requested level of quality that is
         the subject of the BFR is technically feasible, BellSouth shall provide
         to ITC/\DeltaCom a high level cost estimate and detailed development
         price quote.

6.0      Within twenty (20) business days after receipt and acceptance of
         preliminary business analysis, BellSouth shall propose a firm price and
         a detailed implementation plan via email or overnight delivery.

7.0      Within twenty (20) business days after its receipt of the BFR price
         quote and implementation plan from BellSouth, ITC/\DeltaCom must either
         confirm its order for such Interconnection or Network Element or, if it
         believes such quote is not consistent with the requirements of the
         Communications Act, may seek Commission arbitration of its request or
         file a complaint with the FCC, as appropriate. Any such arbitration
         applicable to Network Elements and/or Interconnection shall be
         conducted in accordance with standards prescribed in Section 252 of the
         Act.

8.0      All prices shall be consistent with the pricing principles of the Act,
         the FCC and the Supreme Court's ruling of January 25, 1999 upholding
         the FCC pricing rules.

9.0      If either Party to a BFR believes that the other Party is not
         requesting, negotiating or processing the Bona Fide Request in good
         faith, or disputes a determination, or price or cost quote, such Party
         may seek state Commission or FCC resolution of the dispute as
         appropriate.

10.0     Upon agreement to the terms of a BFR, an amendment to the Agreement may
         be required. Pursuant to Sections 5.3 and 16 of the General Terms and
         Conditions, ITC/\DeltaCom may adopt through another Company's Agreement
         any BFR provided to any other carrier.

       NOTES:

          1    In states where a specific NRC for customer transfer, feature
               additions and changes is not stated, the applicable NRC from the
               appropriate tariff applies.

          2    Geographically Deaveraged UNE Zones and applicable rates have
               been established for certain services, as shown in this
               Agreement. Where Geographically Deaveraged UNE Zones and
               applicable rates are established, Statewide rates are obsolete.
               Further, BellSouth is in the process of enhancing its billing
               systems in order to accomodate this Geographically Deaveraged UNE
               Zone Rate Structure. Until these enhancements are accomplished,
               estimated to be mid 2001, the UNE Zone 1 rate will be billed for
               all services residing in Zones 1, 2, 3 or 4, i.e., Rates for
               services residing in UNE Zones 2, 3 and UNE Zone 4, where
               applicable, will not be billed. Once billing enhancements are
               complete, all applicable UNE Zone rates reflected in this
               Agreement will be billed. Reference Internet Website
               http://www.interconnection.bellsouth.com/become_clec/
               docs/interconnection/deavuzns.pdf to view Geographically
               Deaveraged UNE Zone Designations by Central Office. There will be
               no retroactive true-up for Zones 2,

          3    The recurring interim and nonrecurring interim rates in TN for
               2-Wire analog VG (SL1) for Line Sharing is for a stand-alone loop
               purchased by CLEC-1 to provide both analog voice service and xDSL
               services or in the event CLEC-1 wishes to continue providing xDSL
               services to an end-user who terminates its BellSouth-provided
               voice service. These rates apply when CLEC-1 purchases the
               splitter from BellSouth.

         4     If no rate is identified in the contract, the rate for the
               specific service or function will be as ordered by the Commision.
               If the Commission has not ordered a rate then the rates will be
               as set forth in applicable BellSouth tariff or as negotiated by
               the Parties upon request by either Party.

         5     The prices that ITC/\DeltaCom shall pay to BellSouth for Network
               Elements and Other Services are as set forth in Attachment 11. It
               is the intent of the Parties that where applicable state
               commissions have approved rates for network elements and other
               services set forth in this Agreement as of the date of the date
               hereof, such rates have been included in Attachment 11.

NOTES:
              Interim rates subject to true-up.
          1   Market Rates will apply in those areas where BellSouth is not required to provide
              circuit switching pursuant to FCC rules.

          2   In Georgia, rates will apply for Currently Combined as well as not Currently
              Combined loop/port combinations unless otherwise identified.

          3   In the absence of ordered rates by a State Commission, the recurring rates for
              Currently Combined combinations of loop/port network elements will be the sum of
              the recurring rates for the UNEs which make up the combinations, and the nonrecurring
              rates shall be as set forth in this section.

          4   End Office and Tandem Switching Usage and Common Transport Usage rates in the Port
              section of this rate exhibit shall apply to all combinations of loop/port network elements.

          6   Geographically Deaveraged UNE Zones and applicable rates have been established for certain
              services, as shown in this Agreement.  Where Geographically Deaveraged UNE Zones and applicable
              rates are established, Statewide rates are obsolete.  Further, BellSouth is in the process of
              enhancing its billing systems in order to accomodate this Geographically Deaveraged UNE Zone
              Rate Structure.  Until these enhancements are accomplished, estimated to be mid 2001, the UNE
              Zone 1 rate will be billed for all services residing in Zones 1, 2, 3 or 4, i.e., Rates for
              services residing in UNE Zones 2, 3 and UNE Zone 4, where applicable, will not be billed.
              Once billing enhancements are complete, all applicable UNE Zone rates reflected in this
              Agreement will be billed.

             Interim rates subject to true-up
         1   Geographically Deaveraged UNE Zones and applicable rates have been
             established for certain services, as shown in this Agreement. Where
             Geographically Deaveraged UNE Zones and applicable rates are
             established, Statewide rates are obsolete. Further, BellSouth is in
             the process of enhancing its billing systems in order to
             accomodate this Geographically Deaveraged UNE Zone Rate Structure.
             Until these enhancements are accomplished, estimated to be mid
             2001, the UNE Zone 1 rate will be billed for all services residing
             in Zones 1, 2, 3 or 4, i.e. Rates for services residing in UNE
             Zones 2, 3 and UNE Zone 4, where applicable, will not be billed.
             Once billing enhancements are complete, all applicable UNE Zone
             rates reflected in this Agreement will be billed. Reference

                                    AGREEMENT

         THIS AGREEMENT is made by and between BellSouth Telecommunications,
Inc., ("BellSouth"), a Georgia corporation, and ITC/\DeltaCom Communications,
Inc., d/b/a ITC/\DeltaCom, hereinafter referred to as ("ITC/\DeltaCom") an
Alabama corporation, and shall be deemed effective as of June 5, 2000. This
agreement may refer to either BellSouth or ITC/\DeltaCom or both as a "Party" or
"Parties."

                               W I T N E S S E T H

         WHEREAS, BellSouth is an incumbent local exchange telecommunications
company authorized to provide telecommunications services in the states of
Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina,
South Carolina, and Tennessee; and

         WHEREAS, ITC/\DeltaCom is a competitive local exchange
telecommunications company ("CLEC") authorized to provide telecommunications
services in the states of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana,
Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee; and

         WHEREAS, the Parties wish to interconnect their facilities, purchase
unbundled elements, and exchange traffic specifically for the purposes of
fulfilling their obligations pursuant to sections 251 and 252 of the
Telecommunications Act of 1996 ("the Act").

         NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained
herein, BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom agree as follows:

1. TERM OF THE AGREEMENT

1.1  The term of this Agreement shall be two years, beginning June 5, 2000. The
     term of this Agreement may be extended by one year by mutual agreement of
     the Parties.

1.2  The Parties agree that by no later than one hundred and eighty (180) days
     prior to the expiration of this Agreement, they shall commence negotiations
     with regard to the terms, conditions and prices of local interconnection to
     be effective beginning on the expiration date of this Agreement
     ("Subsequent Agreement").

1.3  If, within one hundred and thirty-five (135) days of commencing the
     negotiation referred to in Section 1.2, above, the Parties are unable to
     satisfactorily negotiate new local interconnection terms, conditions and
     prices, either Party may petition the Commission to establish appropriate
     local interconnection arrangements pursuant to 47 U.S.C. 252. The Parties
     agree that, in such event, they shall encourage the Commission to issue its
     order regarding the appropriate local interconnection arrangements no later
     than the expiration date of this Agreement. The Parties further agree that
     in the event the Commission does not

     issue its order prior to the expiration date of this Agreement, or if the
     Parties continue beyond the expiration date of this Agreement to negotiate
     the local interconnection arrangements without Commission intervention, the
     terms, conditions and prices ultimately ordered by the Commission, or
     negotiated by the Parties, will be effective retroactive to the day
     following the expiration date of this Agreement. Until the Subsequent
     Agreement becomes effective, the Parties shall continue to exchange traffic
     pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

     calculation on firm order, and customer service records where applicable.
     Charges for OSS shall be as set forth in Attachment 1, Exhibit A, and in
     Attachment 11 of this Agreement.

3.   PARITY

3.1  The services and service provisioning that BellSouth provides ITC/\DeltaCom
     for resale will be at least equal in quality to that provided to BellSouth,
     or any BellSouth subsidiary, affiliate or end user. In connection with
     resale, BellSouth will provide ITC/\DeltaCom with pre-ordering, ordering,
     maintenance and trouble reporting, and daily usage data functionality that
     will enable ITC/\DeltaCom to provide equivalent levels of customer service
     to their local exchange customers as BellSouth provides to its own end
     users.

3.2  BellSouth shall also provide ITC/\DeltaCom with unbundled network elements,
     and access to those elements. The quality of an unbundled network element,
     as well as the quality of the access to such unbundled network element,
     that BellSouth provides to ITC/\DeltaCom shall be at least equal in quality
     to that which BellSouth provides to itself or to any BellSouth subsidiary,
     affiliate or other CLEC. The terms and conditions pursuant to which
     BellSouth provides access to unbundled network elements, including but not
     limited to the time within which BellSouth provisions such access to
     unbundled network elements, shall, at a minimum, be no less favorable to
     ITC/\DeltaCom than the terms and conditions under which BellSouth
     provisions such elements to itself. Consistent with all applicable rules
     and regulations, BellSouth shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom with pre-ordering,
     ordering, provisioning, maintenance and repair, and billing functionality
     at least equal to that which BellSouth provides for its own retail
     services.

5.   BONA FIDE REQUEST/NEW BUSINESS REQUEST PROCESS FOR FURTHER UNBUNDLING

     If ITC/\DeltaCom is a facilities based provider or a facilities based and
     resale provider, this section and Attachment 9 shall apply. BellSouth
     shall, upon request of ITC/\DeltaCom, provide to ITC/\DeltaCom access to
     its unbundled elements at any technically feasible point for the provision
     of ITC/\DeltaCom 's telecommunications service where such access is
     necessary and failure to provide access would impair the ability of
     ITC/\DeltaCom to provide services that it seeks to offer. Any request by
     ITC/\DeltaCom for access to an unbundled element that is not already
     available shall be treated as an unbundled element Bona Fide Request/New

     Telecommunications Act of 1996; or to provide a new or custom capability or
     function to meet ITC/\DeltaCom's business needs, referred to as a Business
     Opportunity Request (BOR). The BFR process is intended to facilitate the
     two way exchange of information between the requesting Party and BellSouth,
     necessary for accurate processing of requests in a consistent and timely
     fashion.

5.2  A Bona Fide Request/New Business Request shall be submitted in writing by
     ITC/\DeltaCom and shall specifically identify the required service date,
     technical requirements, space requirements and/or such specifications that
     clearly define the request such that BellSouth has sufficient information
     to analyze and prepare a response. Such a request also shall include a
     ITC/\DeltaCom's designation of the request as being (i) pursuant to the
     Telecommunications Act of 1996 or (ii) pursuant to the needs of the
     business. The request shall be sent to ITC/\DeltaCom 's Account Executive.

     BFR/NBR process shall be made available to ITC/\DeltaCom upon request, on
     the same terms and conditions.

     function that gave rise to such Loss and (ii) Consequential Damages. To the
     extent that a Party elects not to place in its tariffs or contracts such
     limitations of liability, and the other Party incurs a Loss as a result
     thereof, such Party shall indemnify and reimburse the other Party for that
     portion of the Loss that would have been limited had the first Party
     included in its tariffs and contracts the limitations of liability that
     such other Party included in its own tariffs at the time of such Loss.

     6.3.3 Neither BellSouth nor ITC/\DeltaCom shall be liable for damages to

     services, their affiliates and their parent company, shall be indemnified,

     arising from the receiving company's use of the services provided under

7.   COURT ORDERED REQUESTS FOR CALL DETAIL RECORDS AND OTHER SUBSCRIBER
     INFORMATION.

     To the extent technically feasible, BellSouth maintains call detail records
     for ITC/\DeltaCom end users for limited time periods and can respond to
     subpoenas and court ordered requests for information. BellSouth shall
     maintain such information for ITC/\DeltaCom end users for the same length
     of time it maintains such information for its own end users.

7.1  ITC/\DeltaCom agrees that BellSouth will respond to subpoenas and court
     ordered requests delivered directly to BellSouth for the purpose of
     providing call detail records when the targeted telephone numbers belong to
     ITC/\DeltaCom end users. Billing for such requests will be generated by
     BellSouth and directed to the law enforcement agency initiating the
     request.

7.2  ITC/\DeltaCom agrees that in cases where ITC/\DeltaCom receives subpoenas
     or court requests for call detail records for targeted telephone numbers
     belonging to ITC/\DeltaCom end users, ITC/\DeltaCom will advise the law
     enforcement agency initiating the request to redirect the subpoena or court
     ordered request to BellSouth. Billing for call detail information will be
     generated by BellSouth and directed to the law enforcement agency
     initiating the request.

7.3  In cases where the timing of the response to the law enforcement agency
     prohibits ITC/\DeltaCom from having the subpoena or court ordered request
     redirected to BellSouth by the law enforcement agency, ITC/\DeltaCom will
     furnish the official request to BellSouth for providing the call detail
     information. BellSouth will provide the call detail records to
     ITC/\DeltaCom and bill ITC/\DeltaCom for the information. ITC/\DeltaCom
     agrees to reimburse BellSouth for the call detail information provided.

7.4  ITC/\DeltaCom will provide ITC/\DeltaCom end user and/or other customer
     information that is available to ITC/\DeltaCom in response to subpoenas and
     court orders for their own customer records. BellSouth will redirect
     subpoenas and court ordered requests ITC/\DeltaCom end user and/or other
     customer information to ITC/\DeltaCom for the purpose of providing this
     information to the law enforcement agency.

     Party. Except for a limited license to use patents or copyrights to the
     extent necessary for the Parties to use any facilities or equipment
     (including software) or to receive any service solely as provided under
     this Agreement, no license in patent, copyright, trademark or trade secret,
     or other proprietary or intellectual property right now or hereafter owned,
     controlled or licensable by a Party, is granted to the other Party or shall
     be implied or arise by estoppel. It is the responsibility of each Party to
     ensure at no additional cost to the other Party that it has obtained any
     necessary licenses in relation to intellectual property of third Parties
     used in its network that may be required to enable the other Party to use
     any facilities or equipment (including software), to receive any service,
     or to perform its respective obligations under this Agreement.

8.3  INDEMNIFICATION. The Party providing a service pursuant to this Agreement
     will defend the Party receiving such service or data provided as a result
     of such service against claims of infringement arising solely from the use
     by the receiving Party of such service and will indemnify the receiving
     Party for any damages awarded based solely on such claims in accordance
     with Section 6 of this Agreement.

     Promptly after receipt of notice of any claim or the commencement of any
     action for which a Party may seek indemnification pursuant to this Section,
     such Party (the "Indemnified Party") shall promptly give written notice to
     the other Party (the "Indemnifying Party") of such claim or action, but the
     failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the
     Indemnifying Party of any liability it may have to the Indemnified Party
     except to the extent the Indemnifying Party has actually been prejudiced
     thereby. The Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to assume the defense of
     such claim, at its own expense. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with
     the Indemnifying Party's reasonable requests for assistance or Information
     relating to such claim, at the Indemnifying Party's expense. The
     Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the investigation
     and defense of such claim or action, with separate counsel chosen and paid
     for by the Indemnified Party.

8.4  CLAIM OF INFRINGEMENT. In the event that use of any facilities or equipment
     (including software), becomes, or in reasonable judgment of the Party who
     owns the affected network is likely to become, the subject of a claim,
     action, suit, or proceeding based on intellectual property infringement,
     then said Party shall promptly and at its sole expense, but subject to the
     limitations of liability set forth below:

     8.4.1 modify or replace the applicable facilities or equipment (including
     software) while maintaining form and function, or

     8.4.2 obtain a license sufficient to allow such use to continue.

     8.4.3 In the event 8.4.1 or 8.4.2 are commercially unreasonable, then said
     Party may, terminate, upon reasonable notice under the circumstances, this
     contract with respect to use of, or services provided through use of, the
     affected facilities

     or equipment (including software), but solely to the extent required to
     avoid the infringement claim.

8.5  EXCEPTION TO OBLIGATIONS. Neither Party's obligations under this Section
     shall apply to the extent the infringement is caused by: (i) modification
     of the facilities or equipment (including software) by the indemnitee; (ii)
     use by the indemnitee of the facilities or equipment (including software)
     in combination with equipment or facilities (including software) not
     provided or authorized by the indemnitor provided the facilities or
     equipment (including software) would not be infringing if used alone; (iii)
     conformance to specifications of the indemnitee which would necessarily
     result in infringement; or (iv) continued use by the indemnitee of the
     affected facilities or equipment (including software) after being placed on
     notice to discontinue use as set forth herein.

8.6  EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. The foregoing shall constitute the Parties' sole and
     exclusive remedies and obligations with respect to a third party claim of
     intellectual property infringement arising out of the conduct of business
     under this agreement.

9.   TREATMENT OF PROPRIETARY AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

9.1  CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. It may be necessary for BellSouth and
     ITC/\DeltaCom to provide each other with certain confidential information,
     including trade secret information, including but not limited to, technical
     and business plans, technical information, proposals, specifications,
     drawings, procedures, customer account data, call detail records and like
     information (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Information"). All
     Information shall be in writing or other tangible form and clearly marked
     with a confidential, private or proprietary legend and that the Information
     will be returned to the owner within a reasonable time. The Information
     shall not be copied or reproduced in any form. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom
     shall receive such Information and not disclose such Information. BellSouth
     and ITC/\DeltaCom shall protect the Information received from distribution,
     disclosure or dissemination to anyone except employees of BellSouth and
     ITC/\DeltaCom with a need to know such Information and which employees
     agree to be bound by the terms of this Section. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom
     will use the same standard of care to protect Information received as they
     would use to protect their own confidential and proprietary Information.
     Where customer specific information or critical network information is
     communicated orally to designated company representatives in furtherance of
     this Agreement, both Parties agree that those employees shall protect such
     Information from disclosure to anyone except employees of BellSouth and
     ITC/\DeltaCom with a need to know such Information.

9.2  EXCEPTION TO OBLIGATION. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there will be no
     obligation on BellSouth or ITC/\DeltaCom to protect any portion of the
     Information that is: (1) made publicly available by the owner of the
     Information or lawfully disclosed by a Party other than BellSouth or

     concerning a service to market resold offerings of that service in advance

21.  DISCONTINUANCE OF SERVICE

     services in accordance with Attachment 7 of this Agreement.

22.  TRUE-UP

         THIS SECTION APPLIES ONLY TO TENNESSEE.

     The interim prices for Unbundled Network Elements, Local Interconnection
     and Ancillary Services referenced above shall be subject to true-up
     according to the following procedures:

          1. The interim prices shall be trued-up, either up or down, based on
          final prices determined either by further agreement between the
          Parties, or by a final order (including any appeals) of the Commission
          which final order meets the criteria of (3) below. The Parties shall
          implement the true-up by comparing the actual volumes and demand for
          each item, together with interim prices for each item, with the final
          prices determined for each item. Each Party shall keep its own records
          upon which the true-up can be based, and any final payment from one
          Party to the other shall be in an amount agreed upon by the Parties
          based on such records. In the event of any disagreement as between the
          records or the Parties regarding the amount of such true-up, the
          Parties agree that the body having jurisdiction over the matter shall
          be called upon to resolve such differences, or the Parties may
          mutually agree to submit the matter to the Dispute Resolution process
          in accordance with the provisions of Section 16 of the General Terms
          and Conditions and Attachment 1 of the Agreement.

          2. The Parties may continue to negotiate toward final prices, but in
          the event that no such agreement is reached within nine (9) months,
          either Party may petition the Commission to resolve such disputes and
          to determine final prices for each item. Alternatively, upon mutual
          agreement, the Parties may submit the matter to the Dispute Resolution
          Process set forth in Section 16 of the General Terms and Conditions
          and Attachment 1 of the Agreement, so long as they file the resulting
          agreement with the Commission as a "negotiated agreement" under
          Section 252(e) of the Act.

          3. A final order of this Commission that forms the basis of a true-up
          shall be the final order as to prices based on appropriate cost
          studies, or potentially may be a final order in any other Commission
          proceeding which meets the following criteria:

               (a)  BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom is entitled to be a full party
                    to the proceeding;

               (b)  It shall apply the provisions of the federal
                    Telecommunications Act of 1996, including but not limited to
                    Section 252(d)(1) (which contains pricing standards) and all
                    then-effective implementing rules and regulations; and,

               (c)  It shall include as an issue the geographic deaveraging of
                    unbundled element prices, which deaveraged prices, if any
                    are required by said final order, shall form the basis of
                    any true-up.

23.  RULE OF CONSTRUCTION

     No rule of construction requiring interpretation against the drafting Party
     hereof shall apply in the interpretation of this Agreement.

24.  HEADINGS OF NO FORCE OR EFFECT

     The headings of Articles and Sections of this Agreement are for convenience
     of reference only, and shall in no way define, modify or restrict the
     meaning or interpretation of the terms or provisions of this Agreement.

25.  MULTIPLE COUNTERPARTS

     be deemed an original, but all of which shall together constitute but one

                   "Numbering Plan Area" or " NPA" is also sometimes referred to
                  as an area code. This is the three digit indicator which is
                  defined by the "A", "B", and "C" digits of each "digit"
                  telephone number within the North American Numbering Plan

                  "D", "E", and "F" digits of a 10-digit telephone number within
                  the North American Numbering Plan, or as otherwise defined by
                  the appropriate regulatory authority.

                   "Percent Of Interstate Usage" of "PIU" is defined as a factor
                  to be applied to terminating access services minutes of use to
                  obtain those minutes that should be rated as interstate access
                  services minutes of use. The numerator includes all interstate
                  "non-intermediary" minutes of use, including interstate
                  minutes of use that are forwarded due to service provider
                  number portability less any interstate minutes of use for
                  Terminating Party Pays services, such as 800 Services. The
                  denominator includes all "non-intermediary", local,
                  interstate, intrastate, toll and access minutes of use
                  adjusted for service provider number portability less all
                  minutes attributable to terminating Party pays services

                   "Percent Local Usage" or "PLU" is defined as a factor to be
                  applied to intrastate terminating minutes of use. The
                  numerator shall include all "non-intermediary" local minutes
                  of use adjusted for those minutes of use that only apply local
                  due to Service Provider Number Portability. The denominator is
                  the total intrastate minutes of use including local,
                  intrastate toll, and access, adjusted for Service Provider
                  Number Portability less intrastate terminating Party pays
                  minutes of use.

                   "Rate Center" identifies the specific geographic point within
                  an Exhange area which is associated with one or more
                  particular NPA-NXX Codes which have been assigned to a LEC (or
                  CLEC) for the provision of Telephone Exchange Services. The
                  Rate Center vertical and horizontal coordinates are used in
                  the toll message rating process to measure distances between
                  Rate Centers.

                   "Revenue Accounting Office ("RAO") Status Company" is a local
                  exchange company/alternate local exchange company that has
                  been assigned a unique RAO code. Message data exchanged among
                  RAO status companies is grouped (i.e. packed) according to
                  From/To/Bill RAO combinations.

                   "Transit Traffic Service" is as described in Attachment 3 of
                  this Agreement.

                   "Wire Center" denotes a building or space within a building
                  which serves as an aggregation point on a given carrier's
                  network, where transmission facilities and circuits are
                  connected and/or switched.

8.5       If BellSouth determines that an unauthorized change in local service
          to ITC/\DeltaCom has occurred, BellSouth will reestablish service with
          the appropriate local service provider. If BellSouth determines that
          ITC/\DeltaCom has initiated the unauthorized change, the unauthorized
          change charge described in F.C.C. Tariff No. 1, Section 13 will be
          assessed. Appropriate nonrecurring charges, as set forth in Section

          or another LEC other than ITC/\DeltaCom is the source of the error.

          deposit requirements of Section 1.11 of Attachment 7 to this Agreement
          are met.

          by the terms of the CSA.

11.       PAYMENT AND BILLING ARRANGEMENTS

11.1      If ITC/\DeltaCom has not already done so, prior to submitting orders
          to BellSouth for local service, a master account must be established
          for ITC/\DeltaCom. ITC/\DeltaCom is required to provide the following
          before a master account is established: proof of PSC/PUC

          Association ("NECA") and a tax exemption certificate, if applicable.

          involved in billing disputes that may arise between ITC/\DeltaCom and
          its customer. Payments made to BellSouth as payment on account will be
          credited to an accounts receivable master account and not to an end
          user's account.

11.4      BellSouth will render bills each month on established bill days for
          each of ITC/\DeltaCom's accounts.

11.5      BellSouth will bill ITC/\DeltaCom, in advance, charges for all
          services to be provided during the ensuing billing period except
          charges associated with service usage, which charges will be billed in
          arrears. Charges will be calculated on an individual end user account
          level, including, if applicable, any charges for usage or usage
          allowances. BellSouth will also bill all charges, including but not
          limited to 911 and E911

<PAGE>

          Attachment 1 Page 2 charges, and telecommunications relay charges and
          other taxes and fees in accordance with applicable laws, orders and
          regulations.

11.6      The payment will be due by the next bill date (i.e., same date in the
          following month as the bill date) and is payable in immediately
          available funds. Payment is considered to have been made when received
          by BellSouth.

11.7      If the payment due date falls on a Sunday or on a Holiday which is
          observed on a Monday, the payment due date shall be the first
          non-Holiday day following such Sunday or Holiday. If the payment due
          date falls on a Saturday or on a Holiday which is observed on Tuesday,
          Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday, the payment due date shall be the last
          non-Holiday day preceding such Saturday or Holiday. If payment is not
          received by the payment due date, a late payment charge, as set forth
          in BellSouth's tariffs, shall apply.

11.8      If ITC/\DeltaCom requests multiple billing media or additional copies
          of bills, BellSouth will provide these at an appropriate charge to
          ITC/\DeltaCom.

12.       BILLING DISPUTES

12.1      Each Party agrees to notify the other Party upon the discovery of a
          billing dispute. In the event of a billing dispute, the Parties will
          endeavor to resolve the dispute within sixty (60) calendar days of the
          Bill Date on which such disputed charges appear. Resolution of the
          dispute is expected to occur at the first level of management
          resulting in a recommendation for settlement of the dispute and
          closure of a specific billing period. If the issues are not resolved
          within the allotted time frame, the following resolution procedure
          will begin:

          12.1.1 If the dispute is not resolved within sixty (60) days of the
          Bill Date, the dispute will be escalated to the second level of
          management for each of the respective Parties for resolution. If the
          dispute is not resolved within ninety (90) days of the Bill Date, the
          dispute will be escalated to the third level of management for each of
          the respective Parties for resolution.

          12.1.2 If the dispute is not resolved within one hundred and twenty
          (120) days of the Bill Date, the dispute will be escalated to the
          fourth level of management for each of the respective Parties for
          resolution.

          12.1.3 If a Party disputes a charge and does not pay such charge by
          the payment due date, such charges shall be subject to late payment
          charges as set forth in the Late Payment Charges provision of this
          Attachment. If a Party disputes charges and the dispute is resolved in
          favor of such Party, the other Party shall credit the bill of the
          disputing Party for the amount of the disputed charges along with any
          late payment charges assessed no later than the second Bill Date after
          the resolution of the dispute. Accordingly, if a Party disputes
          charges and the dispute is resolved in favor of the other Party, the
          disputing Party shall pay the other Party the amount of the disputed
          charges and any associated late payment charges assessed no later than
          the second bill payment due date after the resolution of the dispute.
          In no event, however, shall any late payment charges be assessed on
          any previously assessed late payment charges.

12.2      Upon proof of tax exempt certification from ITC/\DeltaCom, the total
          amount billed to ITC/\DeltaCom will not include any taxes due from the
          end user. ITC/\DeltaCom will be solely responsible for the
          computation, tracking, reporting and payment of all federal, state
          and/or local jurisdiction taxes associated with the services resold to
          the end user.

12.3      As the customer of record, ITC/\DeltaCom will be responsible for, and
          remit to the BellSouth, all charges applicable to its resold services
          for emergency services (E911 and 911) and Telecommunications Relay
          Service (TRS) as well as any other charges of a similar nature.

12.4      If any portion of the payment is received by BellSouth after the
          payment due date as set forth preceding, or if any portion of the
          payment is received by BellSouth in funds that are not immediately
          available to BellSouth, then a late payment penalty shall be due to
          BellSouth. The late payment penalty shall be the portion of the
          payment not received by the payment due date times a late factor. The
          late factor shall be as set forth in Section A2 of the General
          Subscriber Service Tariff and Section B2 of the Private Line Service
          Tariff.

12.5      Any switched access charges associated with interexchange carrier
          access to the resold local exchange lines will be billed by, and due
          to, BellSouth. No additional charges are to be assessed to
          ITC/\DeltaCom.

12.6      BellSouth will not perform billing and collection services for
          ITC/\DeltaCom as a result of the execution of this Agreement. All
          requests for billing services should be referred to the appropriate
          entity or operational group within BellSouth.

12.7      Pursuant to 47 CFR Section 51.617, BellSouth will bill ITC/\DeltaCom
          end user common line charges identical to the end user common line
          charges BellSouth bills its end users.

12.8      In general, BellSouth will not become involved in disputes between
          ITC/\DeltaCom and ITC/\DeltaCom's end user customers over resold
          services. If a dispute does arise that cannot be settled without the
          involvement of BellSouth, ITC/\DeltaCom shall contact the designated
          Service Center for resolution. BellSouth will make every effort to
          assist in the resolution of the dispute and will work with
          ITC/\DeltaCom to resolve the matter in as timely a manner as possible.
          ITC/\DeltaCom may be required to submit documentation to substantiate
          the claim.

13.       DISCONTINUANCE OF SERVICE

13.1      The procedures for discontinuing service to an end user are as
          follows:

          13.1.1. Where possible, BellSouth will deny service to ITC/\DeltaCom's
                  end user on behalf of, and at the request of, ITC/\DeltaCom.
                  Upon restoration of the end user's service, restoral charges
                  will apply and will be the responsibility of ITC/\DeltaCom. If
                  within fifteen days after an end user's service has been
                  denied no contact has been made in reference to restoring
                  service, the end user's service will be disconnected.

          13.1.2. At the request of ITC/\DeltaCom, BellSouth will disconnect a
                  ITC/\DeltaCom end user customer.

          13.1.3. All requests by ITC/\DeltaCom for denial or disconnection of
                  an end user for nonpayment must be in writing or via the
                  electronic interface established pursuant to Attachment 6 to
                  the Agreement.

          13.1.4  ITC/\DeltaCom will be made solely responsible for notifying
                  the end user of the proposed disconnection of the service.

          13.1.5  BellSouth will continue to process calls made to the Annoyance
                  Call Center and will advise ITC/\DeltaCom when it is
                  determined that annoyance calls are originated from one of
                  their end user's locations. BellSouth shall be indemnified,
                  defended and held harmless by ITC/\DeltaCom

                                                                    Attachment 1
                                                                          Page 2

                  and/or the end user against any claim, loss or damage arising
                  from providing this information to ITC/\DeltaCom. It is the
                  responsibility of ITC/\DeltaCom to take the corrective action
                  necessary with its customers who make annoying calls. Failure
                  to do so will result in BellSouth's disconnecting the end
                  user's service.

13.2      The procedures for discontinuing service to ITC/\DeltaCom are as
          follows:

          13.2.1  BellSouth reserves the right to suspend or terminate service
                  for nonpayment or in the event of prohibited, unlawful or
                  improper use of the facilities or service, abuse of the
                  facilities, or any other violation or noncompliance by
                  ITC/\DeltaCom of the rules and regulations of BellSouth's
                  Tariffs.

          13.2.2  If payment of account is not received by the bill day in the
                  month after the original bill day, BellSouth may provide
                  written notice to ITC/\DeltaCom, that additional applications
                  for service will be refused and that any pending orders for
                  service will not be completed if payment is not received by
                  the fifteenth day following the date of the notice. In
                  addition BellSouth may, at the same time, give thirty days
                  notice to the person designated by ITC/\DeltaCom to receive
                  notices of noncompliance, and discontinue the provision of
                  existing services to ITC/\DeltaCom at any time thereafter
                  subject to state and federal regulatory requirements.

          13.3.3  In the case of such discontinuance, all billed charges, as
                  well as applicable termination charges, shall become due.

          13.3.4  If BellSouth does not refuse additional applications for
                  service or discontinue the provision of services on the date
                  specified in the thirty day notice and ITC/\DeltaCom's
                  noncompliance continues, nothing contained herein shall
                  preclude BellSouth's right to refuse additional applications
                  for service and discontinue the provision of existing service
                  without further notice.

          13.3.5  If payment is not received or arrangements made for payment by
                  the date given in the written notification, ITC/\DeltaCom's
                  services will be discontinued. Upon discontinuance of service
                  on a ITC/\DeltaCom account, service to ITC/\DeltaCom's end
                  users will be denied. BellSouth will also reestablish service
                  at the request of the end user or ITC/\DeltaCom upon payment
                  of the appropriate connection fee and subject to BellSouth's
                  normal application procedures. ITC/\DeltaCom is solely
                  responsible for notifying the end user of the proposed
                  disconnection of the service.

          Provisions for modifying the terms, rates and conditions of this
          Attachment are contained in Section 16 of the General Terms and

                     OPERATIONAL SUPPORT SYSTEMS (OSS) RATES

BellSouth has developed and made available the following mechanized systems by
which CLEC-1 may submit LSRs electronically.

                  LENS              Local Exchange Navigation System
                  EDI               Electronic Data Interchange
                  TAG               Telecommunications Access Gateway

LSRs submitted by means of one of these interactive interfaces will incur an OSS
electronic ordering charge as specified in the Table below An individual LSR
will be identified for billing purposes by its Purchase Order Number (PON). LSRs
submitted by means other than one of these interactive interfaces (mail, fax,
courier, etc.) will incur a manual order charge as specified in the table below:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

             USOC             SOMEC                SOMAN
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE: IN ADDITION TO THE OSS CHARGES, APPLICABLE DISCOUNTED SERVICE ORDER AND
RELATED DISCOUNTED CHARGES APPLY PER THE TARIFF.

DENIAL/RESTORAL OSS CHARGE

In the event CLEC-1 provides a list of customers to be denied and restored,
rather than an LSR, each location on the list will require a separate PON and,
therefore will be billed as one LSR per location.

CANCELLATION OSS CHARGE

CLEC-1 will incur an OSS charge for an accepted LSR that is later canceled by
CLEC-1.

Note: Supplements or clarifications to a previously billed LSR will not incur
another OSS charge.

The Parties agree that CLEC-1 will incur the mechanized rate for all LSRs, both
mechanized and manual, if the percentage of mechanized LSRs to total LSRs meets
or exceeds the threshold percentages shown below:

                           Year             Ratio: Mechanized/Total LSRs

                           2000                      80%

                           2001                      90%

The threshold plan will be discontinued in 2002.

BellSouth will track the total LSR volume for each CLEC for each quarter. At the
end of that time period, a Percent Electronic LSR calculation will be made for
that quarter based on the LSR data tracked in the LCSC. If this percentage
exceeds the threshold volume, all of that CLECs' future manual LSRs will be
billed at the mechanized LSR rate. To allow time for obtaining and analyzing the
data and updating the billing system, this billing change will take place on the
first day of the second month following the end of the quarter (e.g. May 1 for
1Q, Aug 1 for 2Q, etc.). There will be no adjustments to the amount billed for
previously billed LSRs.

                      ACCESS TO UNBUNDLED NETWORK ELEMENTS

1.         INTRODUCTION

1.1        BellSouth shall, upon request of ITC/\DeltaCom, and to the extent
           technically feasible, provide to ITC/\DeltaCom access to its
           unbundled network elements for the provision of ITC/\DeltaCom's
           telecommunications service. If no rate is identified in the contract,
           the rate for the specific service or function will be as set forth in
           applicable BellSouth tariff or as negotiated by the parties upon
           request by either party. Services cannot be charged as unbundled
           network elements; for example, ordering services from the tariff to a
           point collocated in a Central Office shall not incur UNE local loop
           or cross connect charges. At ITC/\DeltaCom's option, access services
           may be ordered to the collocation space.

1.2        ITC/\DeltaCom may purchase unbundled network elements from BellSouth
           for use in any manner ITC/\DeltaCom chooses to provide
           telecommunication services to its intended users, including
           recreating existing BellSouth services. With the exception of the
           sub-loop elements which are located outside of the central office,
           BellSouth shall deliver the unbundled network elements purchased by
           ITC/\DeltaCom for combining to the designated ITC/\DeltaCom
           collocation space. The unbundled network elements shall be provided
           as set forth in this Attachment.

1.3        BellSouth will provide the following combined unbundled network
           elements for purchase by ITC/\DeltaCom. The rate of the following
           combined unbundled network elements is the sum of the individual
           element prices as set forth in this Attachment. Order Coordination as
           defined in Section 2 of Attachment 2 of this Agreement is available
           for each of these combinations. Order Coordination for combinations
           listed below involving an SL1 loop is available only at an additional
           charge:

           o    loop and cross connect
           o    Port and cross connect
           o    Port and cross connect and vertical features
           o    Port and cross connect and common transport
           o    Port and cross connect and common transport and vertical
                features
           o    Port and vertical features o Loop with loop channelization
                (inside central office)
           o    Loop with loop channelization (inside central office) and LNP
           o    Port and common transport

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                          PAGE 4

           o    Loop and LNP

           The Parties agree that on an interim basis, subject to the Parties'
           agreement as to a permanent solution regarding BellSouth's provision
           of extended loops (also known as enhanced extended links or EELs) to
           ITC/\DeltaCom, or subject to further Commission or FCC order
           regarding EELs, the Parties will comply with the terms of the
           Commission's order in Docket No. P-500, Sub 10 relating to EELs.

1.4        BellSouth shall comply with the requirements as set forth in the
           technical references within Attachment 2 to the extent that they are
           consistent with the greater of BellSouth's actual performance or
           applicable industry standards.

1.5        In the event that any effective legislative, regulatory, judicial or
           other legal action modifies or redefines the "Network Elements" in a
           manner which materially affects the terms of this Attachment or the
           Network Elements and/or prices set forth herein, either Party may, on
           thirty (30) days written notice, require renegotiation of such terms,
           and the Parties shall renegotiate in good faith such new terms in
           accordance with such legislative, regulatory, judicial or other legal
           action. In the event such new terms are not renegotiated within
           ninety (90) days after the notice for renegotiation, either party may
           petition the Commission for resolution of the dispute between the
           Parties. Each Party reserves the right to seek judicial review of any
           Commission ruling concerning this Attachment.

1.6        Performance Measurements associated with this Attachment 2 are
           contained in Attachment 10.

2.         UNBUNDLED LOOPS

2.1        BellSouth agrees to offer access to unbundled loops pursuant to the
           following terms and conditions and at the rates set forth in this
           Attachment.

2.2        DEFINITION

2.2.1      The loop is the physical medium or functional path on which a
           subscriber's traffic is carried from the MDF or similar terminating
           device in a central office up to the termination at the NID at the
           customer's premise. Each unbundled loop will be provisioned with a
           NID.

2.2.2      The provisioning of loops to ITC/\DeltaCom will require cross-office
           cabling and cross-connections within the central office to connect
           the loop
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                          PAGE 5

           to a local switch or to other transmission equipment in collocation
           space. These cross-connects are a separate element and are not
           considered a part of the loop.

2.2.2.1    BellSouth Order Coordination referenced in this Attachment includes
           two types: "Order Coordination" and "Order Coordination - Time
           Specific."

2.2.2.2    "Order Coordination" (also known as Manual Order Coordination) refers
           to standard BellSouth service order coordination involving SL2 and
           4-wire voice loops and all digital loops. Order coordination for
           physical conversions will be scheduled at BellSouth's discretion
           during normal working hours on the committed due date and
           ITC/\DeltaCom advised.

2.2.2.3    "Order Coordination - Time Specific" (also known as Order
           Coordination - Time Specific) refers to service order coordination in
           which ITC/\DeltaCom requests a specific time for a service order
           conversion to take place. Loops on a single service order of 14 or
           more loops will be provisioned on a project basis. OC-TS is a
           chargeable option in addition to any applicable OC charge.
           ITC/\DeltaCom may specify a time between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.
           Monday through Friday. If ITC/\DeltaCom specifies a time outside this
           window, or selects a time or quantity of loops that requires
           BellSouth technicians to work outside normal work hours, overtime
           charges will apply in addition to the OC-TS charges.

2.2.2.4    Where facilities are available, BellSouth will install unbundled
           loops within a 5-7 business days interval. For orders of 14 or more
           unbundled loops, the installation will be handled on a project basis
           and the intervals will be set by the BellSouth project manager for
           that order. Said interval will be set in a reasonable manner and in
           accordance with any required extra work times. Some unbundled loops
           require a Service Inquiry (SI) to determine if facilities are
           available prior to issuing the order. The interval for the SI process
           is separate from the installation interval. For expedite requests by
           ITC/\DeltaCom, expedite charges will apply for intervals less than 5
           days. The charges outlined in BellSouth's FCC # 1 Tariff, Section
           5.1.1, will apply. If ITC/\DeltaCom cancels an order for UNE
           services, any costs incurred by BellSouth in conjunction with the
           provisioning of that order will be recovered in accordance with FCC
           #1 Tariff, Section 5.4."

2.2.3      BellSouth will offer Unbundled Voice Loops (UVL) in two different
           service levels - Service Level One (SL1) and Service Level Two (SL2).
           SL1 loops will be non-designed, and will not have test points. Order
           Coordination (OC) and/or engineering information/circuit make-up data
           will be chargeable options. Upon issuance of an order in the service
           order system, SL1 loops without optional Order Coordination will be
           activated on the due date in the same manner and time frames that
           BellSouth normally
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                          PAGE 6

           activates POTS-type loops for its customers; provided, however, that
           for loop activation in BellSouth staffed central offices, BellSouth
           will use its best efforts to provide an a.m. or p.m. designation only
           where loop activation requires dispatching of a BellSouth technician
           and where ITC/\DeltaCom has specifically requested an a.m. or p.m.
           preference for activation on the LSR. Further, for loop activation in
           BellSouth central offices that are not staffed, BellSouth will use
           its best efforts to provide an a.m. or p.m. designation only where
           loop activation requires dispatching of a BellSouth technician and
           where ITC/\DeltaCom has specifically requested a.m. or p.m.
           preference for activation on the LSR. SL2 loops shall have test
           points, will be designed with a Design Layout Record provided to
           ITC/\DeltaCom, and will be provided with Order Coordination. The OC
           feature will allow ITC/\DeltaCom to coordinate the installation of
           the loop with the disconnect of an existing customer's service and/or
           number portability service. In these cases, BellSouth will perform
           the order conversion with standard order coordination at its
           discretion during normal work hours.

2.2.4      BellSouth will also offer Unbundled Digital Loops (UDL). They will be
           designed (where appropriate), will be provisioned with test points
           (where appropriate), and will come standard with Order Coordination
           and a Design Layout Record (DLR).

2.2.5      As a chargeable option on all unbundled loops BellSouth will offer
           Order Coordination - Time Specific (OC-TS). This will allow
           ITC/\DeltaCom the ability to specify the time that the coordinated
           conversion takes place.

2.2.6      ITC/\DeltaCom will be responsible for testing and isolating troubles
           on the unbundled loops. Once ITC/\DeltaCom has isolated a trouble to
           the BellSouth provided loop, ITC/\DeltaCom will issue a trouble to
           BellSouth on the loop. BellSouth will take the actions necessary to
           repair the loop if a trouble actually exists. BellSouth will repair
           these loops in the same time frames that BellSouth repairs similarly
           situated loops to its customers

2.2.7      Either Party may charge the other for dispatching and testing of a
           trouble where the trouble was found not to be in the network of the
           dispatching or testing Party and the dispatching or testing Party's
           equipment did not cause the dispatch. Where there is a dispute as to
           the appropriateness of such charge, the Parties will meet and review
           the record of repair history and determine whether the charge was
           appropriate. Charges so assessed by BellSouth shall be on a time and
           materials basis as set forth in BellSouth's state commission approved
           tariffs. Charges so assessed by ITC/\DeltaCom shall be on a time and
           materials basis as set forth in ITC/\DeltaCom's state commission
           approved tariffs. If ITC/\DeltaCom does not have state commission
           approved tariffs addressing such
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                          PAGE 7

           charges, then such charges shall be assessed by ITC/\DeltaCom at the
           rates set forth in BellSouth's tariffs. If the trouble which was
           originally found not to be in the network of the dispatching or
           testing Party is later proven to be a trouble in the dispatching or
           testing Party's network, the dispatching or testing Party shall waive
           or refund any such charges.

2.2.8      ORDERING PROCESS

2.2.8.1    The ordering process for unbundled loops shall proceed in accordance
           with this Section 2.2.8 and Attachment 6 of this Agreement.

2.2.8.2    BellSouth shall exercise its best efforts in attempting to meet the
           conversion time ITC/\DeltaCom requests through the LSR. However,
           unless ITC/\DeltaCom's LSR specifies a time-specific conversion, in
           which case the conversion must commence at the time indicated in the
           LSR, then within forty-eight (48) to twenty-four (24) hours prior to
           the date and time requested for the loop conversion in
           ITC/\DeltaCom's LSR and acknowledged in BellSouth's FOC, BellSouth
           may contact ITC/\DeltaCom, via telephone, to finalize a scheduled
           conversion time (i.e., a specific time, on the date set forth in the
           FOC) which may be different from the conversion time ITC/\DeltaCom
           requested in the LSR. The scheduled conversion time shall be the time
           at which the parties shall commence coordination of loop installation
           with the disconnect and reconnect of an end user's service and any
           number portability update. BellSouth shall not assess any additional
           charges for scheduled conversion times commencing between BellSouth
           normal business hours as set forth in Section 4.6.1 of Attachment 6.

2.2.8.3    At the scheduled conversion time, BellSouth shall have a sixty (60)
           minute window within which it shall contact ITC/\DeltaCom to begin
           the loop conversion process. Provided, however, that if ITC/\DeltaCom
           requested a time-specific conversion, the conversion shall commence
           at the time indicated in ITC/\DeltaCom's LSR and be completed
           consistently with timeframes for time-specific conversions.

2.2.8.3.1  If either Party dispatches a technician for a loop conversion and the
           other Party fails to complete the conversion at the scheduled time,
           the nonperfoming Party may be charged the one (1) hour additional
           engineering charges set forth in BellSouth's FCC No. 1 tariff,
           Section 13.1.

2.2.8.4    After the loop conversion process commences, a coordinated loop
           cutover, which shall include coordinated conversion of number
           portability, shall be completed within the following time periods:

2.2.8.4.1  For single loop conversions per location, the conversion shall be
           completed within fifteen (15) minutes;
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                          PAGE 8

2.2.8.4.2  For up to ten (10) loop conversions per location, the conversion of
           all loops shall be completed within sixty (60) minutes, and each
           individual loop conversion shall be completed within fifteen (15)
           minutes;

2.2.8.4.3  For loop conversions not exceeding thirty (30) loops per location and
           not determined complex or exceptionally large, the conversion of all
           loops shall be completed within one hundred and twenty (120) minutes.
           All loops above a thirty loop quantity, or ten (10) loop quantity and
           determined as complex (a cut that requires more operation than a
           single cut point), will be negotiated by ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth
           prior to the due date.

2.2.8.4.4  BellSouth agrees that upon ITC/\DeltaCom's request, for order
           coordinated loop cutovers involving three (3) or more lines, at least
           two lines will remain in service at all times during the conversion
           process.

2.2.8.5    Where facilities for requested new services do not currently exist,
           the installation intervals will be determined by BellSouth.
           ITC/\DeltaCom will then be notified of the targeted due date.
           BellSouth shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom adequate justification and an
           explanation of the unusual circumstances that caused BellSouth to be
           unable to meet these commitments.

2.3        Technical Requirements

2.3.1      To the extent available within BST's Network at a particular
           location, BellSouth will offer loops capable of supporting
           telecommunications services such as: POTS, Centrex, basic rate ISDN,
           analog PBX, voice grade private line, ADSL, HDSL, DS1 and digital
           data (up to 64 kb/s). Additional services may include digital PBXs,
           primary rate ISDN, xDSL, and Nx 64 kb/s. If a requested loop type is
           not available, then ITC/\DeltaCom can use the Special Construction
           process to request that BellSouth place facilities or otherwise
           modify facilities in order to meet the ITC/\DeltaCom's request.

2.3.1.1    The loop will support the transmission, signaling, performance and
           interface requirements of the services described in 2.3.1 above. It
           is recognized that the requirements of different services are
           different, and that a number of types or grades of loops are required
           to support these services. Services provided over the loop by
           ITC/\DeltaCom will be consistent with industry standards and BST's
           TR73600.

2.3.1.2    In some instances, ITC/\DeltaCom will require access to a copper
           twisted pair loop unfettered by any intervening equipment (e.g.,
           filters, load coils,
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                          PAGE 9

           range extenders, etc.) and/or limited amounts of bridge/end taps, so
           that ITC/\DeltaCom can use the loop for a variety of services by
           attaching appropriate terminal equipment at the ends. ITC/\DeltaCom
           will determine the type of service that will be provided over the
           loop. In some cases, ITC/\DeltaCom may be required to pay additional
           charges for the removal of certain types of equipment. Unless and
           until BellSouth implements a separate charge for loop conditioning,
           BellSouth's Special Construction process will be used to determine
           the costs and feasibility of these activities. If ITC/\DeltaCom
           requests loop conditioning as described in this Section, BellSouth
           will construct the loop type ordered and will maintain such loop to
           the characteristics and specifications of the loop type ordered.

2.3.1.2.1  In cases in which ITC/\DeltaCom has requested that BellSouth remove
           equipment from the BellSouth loop, BellSouth will no longer be
           expected to maintain and repair the loop to the standards specified
           for the original loop type in the TR73600 and other standards
           referenced in this Agreement.

2.3.1.2.2. ITC/\DeltaCom, in performance of its obligations pursuant to the
           preceding Section, shall maintain records that will reflect that
           pursuant to ITC/\DeltaCom's request BellSouth has removed certain
           equipment from BellSouth provided loops and as such, the loop may not
           perform within the technical specifications associated with the
           original loop type. ITC/\DeltaCom will not report to BellSouth
           troubles on said loops where the loops are not performing within the
           technical specifications of that original loop type. In the event
           that ITC/\DeltaCom has requested such modifications to the loop and
           troubles arise on the modified loop, BellSouth will restore the loop
           only to maintain the technical characteristics of (1) electrical (DC)
           continuity, (2) balance between tip and ring, and (3) resistance on
           loops no longer than 18,000 feet. On loops longer than 18,000 feet,
           resistance will be maintained where technically feasible.

           2.3.1.2.3    In addition, ITC/\DeltaCom recognizes there may be
           instances, where a loop modified in this manner may be subjected to
           normal network configuration changes that may cause the circuit
           characteristics to be changed and may create an outage of the service
           that ITC/\DeltaCom has placed on the loop. If this occurs, BellSouth
           will work cooperatively with ITC/\DeltaCom to restore the circuit to
           its previous modified status as quickly as possible. ITC/\DeltaCom
           will pay the Time and Materials costs associated with BellSouth's
           work efforts needed to bring the loop back to its previous modified
           status. BellSouth will use best efforts to prevent the occurrence of
           such changes.

2.3.1.3    To the extent BellSouth converts a resold service to unbundled
           network elements for any telecommunications carrier, BellSouth shall
           make available to ITC/\DeltaCom the same conversion for the same
           services and elements on the same terms and conditions and at the
           same rates, if any; provided, however that the rate for such
           conversion shall not exceed those rates set forth in Attachment 11 to
           this Agreement. The Parties agree that such rates are interim and
           upon establishment of a permanent rate, either through negotiation or
           by order of the Commission, the parties will amend this Agreement to
           reflect the new rate and will true up such rate retroactively back to
           the effective date of this Agreement.

2.3.1.4    BellSouth shall develop a process to identify the carrier for each
           unbundled loop and establish automated intercompany referral and/or
           call hand-off processes for an additional charge developed via the
           BFR process. In addition, ITC/\DeltaCom may deploy DLC equipment (TR
           303 compliant) in ITC/\DeltaCom's collocation space or in
           ITC/\DeltaCom's network.

2.3.2      The loop shall be provided to ITC/\DeltaCom in accordance with the
           following Technical References:

3.         INTEGRATED DIGITAL LOOP CARRIERS

           To the extent technically feasible, BellSouth will make available
           IDLC technology to ITC/\DeltaCom. Otherwise, where BellSouth uses

           Integrated Digital Loop Carrier (IDLC) systems to provide the local
           loop and BellSouth has a suitable alternate facility available,
           BellSouth will make arrangements to permit ITC/\DeltaCom to order a
           contiguous unbundled local loop. To the extent it is technically
           feasible, these arrangements will provide ITC/\DeltaCom with the
           capability to serve end users at a level that is at parity with the
           level of service BellSouth provides its customers. If no alternate
           facility is available, BellSouth will utilize its Special
           Construction (SC) process to determine the additional costs required
           to provision the loop facilities. ITC/\DeltaCom will then have the
           option of paying the one-time SC rates to place the loop facilities
           or ITC/\DeltaCom may chose some other method of providing service to
           the end-user (e.g., Resale, private facilities, etc.).

4.         NETWORK INTERFACE DEVICE

4.1        DEFINITION

           The Network Interface Device (NID) is a single-line termination
           device or that portion of a multiple-line termination device required
           to terminate a single line or circuit at the end user customer's
           premises. The fundamental function of the NID is to establish the
           official network demarcation point between a carrier and its end-user
           customer. The NID features two independent chambers or divisions
           which separate the service provider's network from the customer's
           inside wiring. Each chamber or division contains the appropriate
           connection points or posts to which the service provider, and the
           end-user customer each make their connections. The NID provides a
           protective ground connection, and is capable of terminating cables
           such as twisted pair cable.

4.2        TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

4.2.1      The Network Interface Device shall provide a clean, accessible point
           of connection for the inside wiring and for the Distribution Media
           and shall maintain a connection to ground that meets the requirements
           set forth below.

4.2.2      The NID shall be capable of transferring electrical analog or digital
           signals between the customer's inside wiring and the Distribution
           Media.

4.2.3      All NID posts or connecting points shall be in place, secure, usable
           and free of any rust or corrosion. The protective ground connection
           shall exist and be properly installed. The ground wire will also be
           free of rust or corrosion and have continuity relative to ground.

4.2.4      The NID shall be capable of withstanding all normal local
           environmental variations.
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 12

4.2.5      Where feasible, the NID shall be physically accessible to
           ITC/\DeltaCom designated personnel. In cases where entrance to the
           customer premises is required to give access to the NID,
           ITC/\DeltaCom shall obtain entrance permission directly from the
           customer.

4.2.6      BellSouth shall offer the NID as a stand-alone component.
           Additionally, ITC/\DeltaCom may connect its loop to any spare
           capacity on the BellSouth NID. Where necessary to comply with an
           effective Commission order, BellSouth will allow ITC/\DeltaCom to
           disconnect the BellSouth loop from the BellSouth NID in order to
           connect ITC/\DeltaCom's loop to the BellSouth NID. In these cases,
           ITC/\DeltaCom accepts all liability associated with this process and
           it is ITC/\DeltaCom's responsibility to make sure the disconnected
           BellSouth loop is properly grounded.

4.3        INTERFACE REQUIREMENTS

4.3.1      The NID shall be equal to or better than all of the requirements for
           NIDs set forth in the following technical references:

4.3.1.1    Bellcore Technical Advisory TA-TSY-000120 "Customer Premises or
           Network Ground Wire";

4.3.1.2    Bellcore Generic Requirement GR-49-CORE "Generic Requirements for
           Outdoor Telephone Network Interface Devices";

4.3.1.3    Bellcore Technical Requirement TR-NWT-00239 "Indoor Telephone Network
           Interfaces";

4.3.1.4    Bellcore Technical Requirement TR-NWT-000937 "Generic Requirements
           for Outdoor and Indoor Building Entrance"

5.         UNBUNDLED LOOP CONCENTRATION (ULC) SYSTEM

5.1        BellSouth will provide to ITC/\DeltaCom unbundled loop concentration
           (ULC). Loop concentration systems in the central office concentrate
           the signals transmitted over local loops onto a digital loop carrier
           system. The concentration device is placed inside a BellSouth central
           office. BellSouth will offer ULC with a TR008 interface or a TR303
           interface.

5.2        ULC will be offered in two sizes. System A will allow up to 96
           BellSouth loops to be concentrated onto multiple DS1s. The high speed
           connection from the concentrator will be at the electrical DS1 level
           and may connect to ITC/\DeltaCom at ITC/\DeltaCom's collocation site.
           System B will allow up to 192 BellSouth loops to be concentrated onto
           multiple DS1s. System A may be upgraded to a System B. A minimum of
           two DS1s is required for each system (i.e., System A requires two
           DS1s and System B would require an additional two DS1s or four in
           total ). All DS1 interfaces will

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 13

           terminate to ITC/\DeltaCom's collocation space. ULC service is
           offered with or without concentration and with or without protection.
           A Line Interface element will be required for each unbundled loop
           that is terminated onto the ULC system. Rates for ULC are as set
           forth in Attachment 11.

6.         SUB-LOOP ELEMENTS

6.1        Where facilities permit and where necessary to comply with an
           effective Commission order, BellSouth shall offer access to its
           Unbundled Sub-Loop (USL), Unbundled Sub-Loop Concentration (USLC)
           System and Unbundled Network Terminating Wire (UNTW) elements.

6.2        Unbundled Sub-Loop (USL)

6.2.1      DEFINITION

6.2.1.1    Unbundled Sub-Loop provides connectivity between the NID component of
           the unbundled sub-loop and the terminal block on the customer-side of
           a Feeder Distribution Interface (FDI). This termination and
           cross-connect field may be in the form of an outside plant
           distribution closure or remote terminal. Riser Cable that extends
           from BellSouth's point-of-entry into a building (e.g., equipment
           closet, terminal room, etc.) to the NID on a particular floor or
           office space in a multi-tenant building is also classified as a USL.
           Unbundled Sub-Loops will be provisioned as 2-wire or 4-wire circuits
           and will include a NID.

6.2.1.2    The Unbundled Sub-Loop will be copper twisted pair.

6.2.2      Requirements for All Unbundled Sub-Loop

6.2.2.1    Unbundled Sub-Loops shall be capable of carrying all signaling
           messages or tones needed to provide telecommunications services.

           Unbundled Sub-Loop shall support functions associated with
           provisioning, maintenance and testing of the Unbundled Sub-Loop In
           these scenarios, ITC/\DeltaCom would be required to place a cross-
           box, remote terminal (RT), or other similar device and deliver a
           cable to the BellSouth remote terminal or cross-box. This cable would
           be connected, by a BST technician, to a cross-connect panel within
           the BellSouth RT/cross-box. ITC/\DeltaCom's cable pairs can then be
           connected to BST's USL within the BST cross-box by the BST
           technician.

6.2.3      Interface Requirements
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 14

6.2.3.1    Unbundled Sub-Loop shall be equal to or better than each of the
           applicable interface requirements set forth in the following
           technical references:

6.2.3.2    Bellcore TR-NWT-000049, "Generic Requirements for Outdoor Telephone
           Network Interface Devices," Issued December 1,1994;

6.3        Unbundled Sub-Loop Concentration System (USLC)

6.3.1      Where facilities permit and where necessary to comply with an
           effective Commission order, BellSouth will provide to ITC/\DeltaCom
           with the ability to concentrate its sub-loops onto multiple DS1s back
           to the BellSouth Central Office. The DS1s will then be terminated
           into ITC/\DeltaCom's collocation space. TR-008 and TR303 interface
           standards are available.

6.3.2      USLC, using the Lucent Series 5 equipment, will be offered in two
           different systems. System A will allow up to 96 of ITC/\DeltaCom's
           sub-loops to be concentrated onto multiple DS1s. System B will allow
           an additional 96 of ITC/\DeltaCom's sub-loops to be concentrated onto
           multiple DS1s. One System A may be supplemented with one System B and
           they both must be physically located in a single Series 5 dual
           channel bank. A minimum of two DS1s is required for each system
           (i.e., System A requires two DS1s and System B would require an
           additional two DS1s or four in total). The DS1 level facility that
           connects the RT site with the serving wire center is known as a
           Feeder Interface. All DS1 Feeder Interfaces will terminate to
           ITC/\DeltaCom's collocation space within the SWC that serves the RT
           where ITC/\DeltaCom's sub-loops are connected. USLC service is
           offered with or without concentration and with or without a
           protection DS1.

6.3.3      In these scenarios ITC/\DeltaCom would be required to place a
           cross-box, remote terminal (RT), or other similar device and deliver
           a cable to the BellSouth remote terminal. This cable would be
           connected, by a BellSouth technician, to a cross-connect panel within
           the BellSouth RT/cross-box and would allow ITC/\DeltaCom's sub-loops
           to then be placed on the ULSC and transported to their collocation
           space at a DS1 level.

6.4        Unbundled Network Terminating Wire (UNTW)

6.4.1      BellSouth agrees to offer its Unbundled Network Terminating Wire
           (UNTW) to ITC/\DeltaCom pursuant to the following terms and
           conditions at rates as set forth in this Attachment.

6.5        DEFINITION
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 15

           UNTW is twisted copper wire that extends from BellSouth's
           point-of-entry into a multi-dwelling unit (MDU) complex or
           multi-tenant unit (MTU) complex to the point of demarcation at the
           end-users location. The UNTW will not include a Network Interface
           Device (NID).

6.6        REQUIREMENTS

6.6.1      BellSouth will retain the first pair of NTW going into each end-user
           premises. BellSouth will offer spare pairs that are available to an
           end-users premises to ITC/\DeltaCom. Available spare pairs are
           defined as pairs that are not being utilized by BellSouth or by a
           third party to provide an end-user with working service at the time
           of ITC/\DeltaCom's request for UNTW. If no spare pairs are available
           and the end-user is no longer using BellSouth's local service,
           BellSouth will relinquish the first pair to ITC/\DeltaCom. If after
           BellSouth has relinquished the first pair to ITC/\DeltaCom and the
           end-user decides to change local service providers to BellSouth,
           ITC/\DeltaCom will relinquish the first pair back to BellSouth.

6.6.2  Notwithstanding the foregoing, should BellSouth subsequently require the
use of additional pair(s) to provide for the activation of additional lines in
an end-users premises in response to a request from such end-user, ITC/\DeltaCom
agrees to surrender their spare pair(s) upon request by BellSouth provided
ITC/\DeltaCom's working pairs will not be affected.

6.6.3  If an end-user of ITC/\DeltaCom desires to receive local exchange service
from a service provider who is not a party to this Agreement, and such third
party service provider needs access to the BellSouth UNTW to provide local
exchange service to the end user, then ITC/\DeltaCom agrees to surrender the
requisite number of its inactive spare pair(s) if no other spare pair is
available and upon request by BellSouth.

6.6.4  If ITC/\DeltaCom has placed NTW at a location and an end-user desires to
receive local exchange service from BellSouth and BellSouth needs access to
ITC/\DeltaCom's NTW to provide local exchange service to the end-user, then
ITC/\DeltaCom agrees to surrender the requisite number of its inactive spare
pair(s) upon request by BellSouth. Rates for ITC/\DeltaCom NTW furnished to
BellSouth will be reciprocal with BellSouth's rates.

6.6.5      In new construction, where possible, both parties may at their option
           and with the property owner's agreement install their own NTW. In
           existing construction, BellSouth shall not be required to install new
           or additional NTW beyond existing NTW to provision the services of
           ITC/\DeltaCom.

6.7        TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

6.7.1      In these scenarios, BellSouth will connect the requested UNTW pairs
           to a cross-connect panel designed for ITC/\DeltaCom access to
           BellSouth's NTW. ITC/\DeltaCom will be required to place a cross-box,
           terminal, or other similar device and deliver a cable to this
           cross-connect panel.
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 16

           ITC/\DeltaCom will then connect their cable to the cross-connect
           panel to access the requested UNTW pairs.

6.8        PORT/LOOP COMBINATIONS

           6.8.1      At ITC/\DeltaCom's request, BellSouth shall provide access
                      to combinations of port and loop network elements, as set
                      forth in Section 6.8.7 below, that are currently combined
                      in BellSouth's network except as specified in Sections
                      6.8.1.1 and 6.8.1.2 below.

                      6.8.1.1   BellSouth is not required to provide access to
                      combinations of port and loop network elements in
                      locations where BellSouth is not required to provide
                      circuit switching.

                      6.8.1.2   BellSouth is not required to provide circuit
                      switching in Density Zone 1, as defined in 47 C.F.R.
                      69.123 as of January 1, 1999, of the Atlanta, Miami,
                      Orlando, Fort Lauderdale, Charlotte, New Orleans,
                      Greensboro and Nashville MSAs to ITC/\DeltaCom if
                      ITC/\DeltaCom's customer has 4 or more DS0 equivalent
                      lines.

           6.8.2      For purposes of this Amendment, references to "Currently
                      Combined" network elements shall mean that such network

7.         LOCAL SWITCHING

           BellSouth agrees to offer access to local switching pursuant to the
           following terms and conditions and at the rates set forth in this
           Attachment.

7.1        DEFINITION
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 18

7.1.1      Local Switching is the Network Element that provides the
           functionality required to connect the appropriate originating lines
           or trunks wired to the Main Distributing Frame (MDF) or Digital Cross
           Connect (DSX) panel to a desired terminating line or trunk. Such
           functionality shall include access to all of the features, functions,
           and capabilities that the underlying BellSouth switch that is
           providing such Local Switching function is then capable of providing,
           including but not limited to: line signaling and signaling software,
           digit reception, dialed number translations, call screening, routing,
           recording, call supervision, dial tone, switching, telephone number
           provisioning, announcements, calling features and capabilities
           (including call processing), CENTREX, Automatic Call Distributor
           (ACD), Carrier pre-subscription (e.g. long distance carrier,
           intraLATA toll), Carrier Identification Code (CIC) portability
           capabilities, testing and other operational features inherent to the
           switch and switch software. It also provides access to transport,
           signaling (ISDN User Part (ISUP)) and Transaction Capabilities
           Application Part (TCAP), and platforms such as adjuncts, Public
           Safety Systems (911), operator services, Directory Assistance
           Services and Advanced Intelligent Network (AIN). Remote Switching
           Module functionality is included in the Local Switching function. The
           switching capabilities used will be based on the line side features
           they support. Local Switching will also be capable of routing local,
           intraLATA, interLATA, and international calls to the customer's
           preferred carrier; call features (e.g., call forwarding) and CENTREX
           capabilities. Where required to do so in order to comply with an
           effective Commission order, Local Switching, including the ability to
           route to ITC/\DeltaCom's transport facilities, dedicated facilities
           and systems, shall be unbundled from all other unbundled Network
           Elements, i.e., Operator Systems, Shared Transport, and Dedicated
           Transport. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall continue to work with
           the appropriate industry groups to develop a long-term solution for
           selective routing.

7.1.2      A featureless port is one that has a line port, switching
           functionality, and an interoffice port. A featured port is a port
           that includes all features then capable or a number of then capable
           features specifically requested by ITC/\DeltaCom. Any features that
           are not currently then capable but are technically feasible through
           the switch can be requested through the BFR process.

7.1.3      Where required to do so in order to comply with an effective
           Commission order, BellSouth will provide to ITC/\DeltaCom unbundled
           local BellSouth switching and resold BellSouth local exchange service
           under Attachment 1, selective routing of calls to a requested
           directory assistance services platform or operator services platform.
           ITC/\DeltaCom customers may use the same dialing arrangements as
           BellSouth customers, but obtain an ITC/\DeltaCom service.

8.1        DEFINITION OF SHARED TRANSPORT

           Shared Transport is an interoffice transmission path between two
           BellSouth end-offices, BellSouth end-office and a tandem, or between
           two tandems. Where BellSouth Network Elements are connected by
           intra-office wiring, such wiring is provided as a part of the Network

           terms and conditions following and at the rates set forth in
           Attachment 11.

10.1       DEFINITION

           Operator Systems is the Network Element that provides operator and
           automated call handling and billing, special services, customer
           telephone listings and optional call completion services. The
           Operator Systems, Network Element provides two types of functions:
           Operator Service functions and Directory Assistance Service
           functions, each of which are described in detail below.

10.2       OPERATOR SERVICE

10.2.1     DEFINITION

           Operator Service provides: (1) operator handling for call completion
           (for example, collect, third number billing, and calling card calls),
           (2) operator or automated assistance for billing after the customer
           has dialed the called number (for example, calling card calls); and
           (3) special services including but not limited to Busy Line
           Verification and Emergency Line Interrupt (ELI), Emergency Agency
           Call, Operator-assisted Directory Assistance, and Rate Quotes.

           BellSouth will offer to ITC/\DeltaCom Operator Call Processing Access
           Service BLV/BLVI. Busy Line Verification ("BLV") shall be performed
           when one Party's Customer requests assistance from the operator
           bureau of the other Party to determine if the called line is in use.
           However, the operator bureau will not complete the call for the
           Customer initiating the BLV inquiry. Only one BLV attempt will be
           made per Customer operator bureau call, and a charge shall apply
           whether or not the called party releases the line.

           Busy Line Verification Interrupt ("BLVI") shall be performed when one
           Party's Customer requests the operator bureau of the other Party to
           interrupt a telephone call in progress after BLV has occurred. The
           operator bureau will interrupt the busy line and inform the called
           party, that there is a call waiting. The operator bureau will only
           interrupt the call and will not complete the telephone call of the
           End User initiating the BLVI request. The operator bureau will make
           only one BLVI attempt per telephone call and the applicable charge
           applies whether or not the called party releases the line. Each
           Party's operator bureau shall accept BLV and BLVI inquiries from the
           operator bureau of the other Party in order to allow transparent
           provision of BLV/BLVI Traffic between the Parties' networks.

                                                                         PAGE 32

           Each Party shall route BLV/BLVI traffic inquiries over separate
           direct trunks (and not the Local/IntraLATA Trunks) established
           between the Parties' respective operator bureaus. ITC/\DeltaCom will
           route BLV and BLVI traffic to the BellSouth access tandem. BellSouth
           will route BLV and BLVI traffic to the ITC/\DeltaCom access tandem.
           Each Party shall compensate the other Party for BLV/BLVI Traffic as
           set forth in ATTACHMENT 11 (Pricing Schedule) to the Agreement.

                                                                         PAGE 38

11.1       DEFINITION OF SIGNALING LINK TRANSPORT

           Signaling Link Transport is a set of two or four dedicated 56 Kbps.
           transmission paths between CLEC-designated Signaling Points of
           Interconnection (SPOI) that provides appropriate physical diversity.

11.2       TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

11.2.1     Signaling Link Transport shall consist of full duplex mode 56 kbps
           transmission paths.

11.2.2     Of the various options available, Signaling Link Transport shall
           perform in the following two ways:

11.2.2.1   As an "A-link" which is a connection between a switch or SCP and a
           home Signaling Transfer Point Switch (STP) pair; and

11.2.2.2   As a "B-link" which is a connection between two STP pairs in
           different company networks (e.g., between two STP pairs for two
           Competitive Local Exchange Carriers (CLECs)).

11.2.3     Signaling Link Transport shall consist of two or more signaling link
           layers as follows:

11.2.3.1   An A-link layer shall consist of two links.

11.2.3.2   A B-link layer shall consist of four links.

11.2.4     A signaling link layer shall satisfy a performance objective such
           that:

11.2.4.1   There shall be no more than two minutes down time per year for an
           A-link layer; and

11.2.4.2   There shall be negligible (less than 2 seconds) down time per year
           for a B-link layer.

11.2.5     A signaling link layer shall satisfy interoffice and intraoffice
           diversity of facilities and equipment, such that:

11.2.5.1   No single failure of facilities or equipment causes the failure of
           both links in an A-link layer (i.e., the links should be provided on
           a minimum of two separate physical paths end-to-end); and

11.2.5.2   No two concurrent failures of facilities or equipment shall cause the
           failure of all four links in a B-link layer (i.e., the links should
           be provided on a minimum of three separate physical paths
           end-to-end).

11.3.1     There shall be a DS1 (1.544 Mbps) interface at the
           ITC/\DeltaCom-designated SPOIs. Each 56 kbps transmission path shall
           appear as a DS0 channel within the DS1 interface.

12.        SIGNALING TRANSFER POINTS (STPS)

12.1       DEFINITION - Signaling Transfer Points is a signaling network
           function that includes all of the capabilities provided by the
           signaling transfer point switches (STPs) and their associated
           signaling links which enable the exchange of SS7 messages among and
           between switching elements, database elements and signaling transfer
           point switches

12.2       TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

12.2.1     STPs shall provide access to Network Elements connected to BellSouth
           SS7 network. These include:

12.2.1.1   BellSouth Local Switching or Tandem Switching;

12.2.1.2   BellSouth Service Control Points/DataBases;

12.2.1.3   Third-party local or tandem switching;

12.2.1.4   Third-party-provided STPs.

12.2.2     The connectivity provided by STPs shall fully support the functions
           of all other Network Elements connected to BellSouth SS7 network.
           This explicitly includes the use of BellSouth SS7 network to convey
           messages which neither originate nor terminate at a signaling end
           point directly connected to BellSouth SS7 network (i.e., transient
           messages). When BellSouth SS7 network is used to convey transient
           messages, there shall be no alteration of the Integrated Services
           Digital Network User Part (ISDNUP) or Transaction Capabilities
           Application Part (TCAP) user data that constitutes the content of the
           message.

12.2.3     If a BellSouth tandem switch routes calling traffic, based on dialed
           or translated digits, on SS7 trunks between an ITC/\DeltaCom local
           switch and third party local switch, BellSouth SS7 network shall
           convey the TCAP messages that are necessary to provide Call
           Management features (Automatic Callback, Automatic Recall, and
           Screening List Editing) between ITC/\DeltaCom local STPs and the STPs
           that provide connectivity with the third party local switch, even if
           the third party local switch is not directly connected to BellSouth
           STPs.

12.2.4     STPs shall provide all functions of the MTP as defined in Bellcore
           ANSI Interconnection Requirements. This includes:

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 40

12.2.4.1   Signaling Data Link functions, as defined in Bellcore ANSI
           Interconnection Requirements,

12.2.4.2   Signaling Link functions, as defined in Bellcore ANSI Interconnection
           Requirements, and

12.2.4.3   Signaling Network Management functions, as defined in Bellcore ANSI
           Interconnection Requirements.

12.2.5     STPs shall provide all functions of the SCCP necessary for Class 0
           (basic connectionless) service, as defined in Bellcore ANSI
           Interconnection Requirements. In particular, this includes Global
           Title Translation (GTT) and SCCP Management procedures, as specified
           in T1.112.4. In cases where the destination signaling point is a
           ITC/\DeltaCom or third party local or tandem switching system
           directly connected to BellSouth SS7 network, BellSouth shall perform
           final GTT of messages to the destination and SCCP Subsystem
           Management of the destination. In all other cases, BellSouth shall
           perform intermediate GTT of messages to a gateway pair of STPs in an
           SS7 network connected with BellSouth SS7 network, and shall not
           perform SCCP Subsystem Management of the destination. If BellSouth
           performs final GTT to a ITC/\DeltaCom database, then ITC/\DeltaCom
           agrees to provide BellSouth with the Destination Point Code for the
           ITC/\DeltaCom database.

12.2.6     STPs shall provide on a non-discriminatory basis all functions of the
           OMAP commonly provided by STPs, as specified in the reference in
           Section 12.4.5 of this Attachment. All OMAP functions will be on a
           "where available" basis and can include:

12.2.6.1   MTP Routing Verification Test (MRVT) and

12.2.6.2   SCCP Routing Verification Test (SRVT).

12.2.7     In cases where the destination signaling point is a BellSouth local
           or tandem switching system or database, or is an ITC/\DeltaCom or
           third party local or tandem switching system directly connected to
           the BellSouth SS7 network, STPs shall perform MRVT and SRVT to the
           destination signaling point. In all other cases, STPs shall perform
           MRVT and SRVT to a gateway pair of STPs in an SS7 network connected
           with the BellSouth SS7 network. This requirement shall be superseded
           by the specifications for Internetwork MRVT and SRVT if and when
           these become approved ANSI standards and available capabilities of
           BellSouth STPs, and if mutually agreed upon by ITC/\DeltaCom and
           BellSouth.

12.2.8     STPs shall be on parity with BellSouth.

12.2.9     SS7 ADVANCED INTELLIGENT NETWORK (AIN) ACCESS
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 2
                                                                         PAGE 41

12.2.9.1   When technically feasible and upon request by ITC/\DeltaCom, SS7
           Access shall be made available in association with unbundled
           switching. SS7 AIN Access is the provisioning of AIN 0.1 triggers in
           an equipped BellSouth local switch and interconnection of the
           BellSouth SS7 network with the ITC/\DeltaCom SS7 network to exchange
           TCAP queries and responses with an ITC/\DeltaCom SCP.

12.2.9.2   SS7 AIN Access shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom SCP access to BellSouth
           local switch in association with unbundled switching via
           interconnection of BellSouth SS7 and ITC/\DeltaCom SS7 Networks.
           BellSouth shall offer SS7 access through its STPs. If BellSouth
           requires a mediation device on any part of its network specific to
           this form of access, BellSouth must route its messages in the same
           manner. The interconnection arrangement shall result in the BellSouth
           local switch recognizing the ITC/\DeltaCom SCP as at least at parity
           with BellSouth's SCP's in terms of interfaces, performance and
           capabilities.

12.3       INTERFACE REQUIREMENTS

12.3.1     BellSouth shall provide the following STPs options to connect
           ITC/\DeltaCom or ITC/\DeltaCom-designated local switching systems or
           STPs to BellSouth SS7 network:

12.3.1.1   An A-link interface from ITC/\DeltaCom local switching systems; and,

12.3.1.2   A B-link interface from ITC/\DeltaCom local STPs.

12.3.2     Each type of interface shall be provided by one or more sets (layers)
           of signaling links.

12.3.3     The Signaling Point of Interconnection (SPOI) for each link shall be
           located at a cross-connect element, such as a DSX-1, in the Central
           Office (CO) where BellSouth STP is located. There shall be a DS1 or
           higher rate transport interface at each of the SPOIs. Each signaling
           link shall appear as a DS0 channel within the DS1 or higher rate
           interface. BellSouth shall offer higher rate DS1 signaling for
           interconnecting ITC/\DeltaCom local switching systems or STPs with
           BellSouth STPs as soon as these become approved ANSI standards and
           available capabilities of BellSouth STPs. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom
           will work jointly to establish mutually acceptable SPOIs.

12.3.4     BellSouth CO shall provide intraoffice diversity between the SPOIs
           and BellSouth STPs, so that no single failure of intraoffice
           facilities or equipment shall cause the failure of both B-links in a
           layer connecting to a BellSouth STP. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom will
           work jointly to establish mutually acceptable SPOIs.

13.4.2.8   BellSouth shall provide LIDB systems such that no more than 0.01% of
           ITC/\DeltaCom customer records will be missing from LIDB, as measured
           by ITC/\DeltaCom audits. BellSouth will audit ITC/\DeltaCom records
           in LIDB against DBAS to identify record mismatches and provide this
           data to a designated ITC/\DeltaCom contact person to resolve the
           status of the records and BellSouth will update system appropriately.
           BellSouth will refer record of mis-matches to ITC/\DeltaCom within
           one business day of audit. Once reconciled records are received back
           from ITC/\DeltaCom, BellSouth will update LIDB the same business day
           if less than 500 records are received before 1:00PM Central Time. If
           more than 500 records are received, BellSouth will contact
           ITC/\DeltaCom to negotiate a time frame for the updates, not to
           exceed three business days.

13.4.2.9   BellSouth shall perform backup and recovery of all of ITC/\DeltaCom's
           data in LIDB including sending to LIDB all changes made since the
           date of the most recent backup copy, in at least the same time frame
           BellSouth performs backup and recovery of BellSouth data in LIDB for
           itself. Currently, BellSouth performs backups of the LIDB for itself
           on a weekly basis and when a new software release is scheduled, a
           backup is performed prior to loading the new release.

           and shall be updated if ITC/\DeltaCom requests, provided
           ITC/\DeltaCom supplies BellSouth with the updates.

13.6.1.4   When Remote Call Forwarding (RCF) is used to provide number
           portability to the local customer and a remark or other appropriate
           field information is available in the database, the shadow or
           "forwarded-to" number and an indication that the number is ported
           shall be added to the customer record.

13.6.1.5   If BellSouth is responsible for configuring PSAP features (for cases
           when the PSAP or BellSouth supports an ISDN interface) it shall
           ensure that CLASS Automatic Recall (Call Return) is not used to call
           back to the ported number. Although BellSouth currently does not have
           ISDN interface, BellSouth agrees to comply with this requirement once
           ISDN interfaces are in place.

13.6.2     INTERFACE REQUIREMENTS

           The interface between the E911 Switch or Tandem and the ALI/DMS

           15.1.2.1.2   BellSouth DBs; and

           15.1.2.1.3   Other third-party local or tandem switching systems.

15.1.2.2   The connectivity provided by SS7 Network Interconnection shall fully
           support the functions of BellSouth switching systems and DBs and
           ITC/\DeltaCom or other third-party switching systems with A-link
           access to the BellSouth SS7 network.

           If traffic is routed based on dialed or translated digits between an
           ITC/\DeltaCom local switching system and a BellSouth or other
           third-party local switching system, either directly or via a
           BellSouth tandem switching system, then it is a requirement that the
           BellSouth SS7 network convey via SS7 Network Interconnection the TCAP
           messages that are necessary to provide Call Management services
           (Automatic Callback, Automatic

           (GTT) and SCCP Management procedures, as specified in T1.112.4. Where
           the destination signaling point is a BellSouth switching system or
           DB, or is another third-party local or tandem switching system
           directly connected to the BellSouth SS7 network, SS7 Network
           Interconnection shall include final GTT of messages to the
           destination and SCCP Subsystem Management of the destination. Where
           the destination signaling point is an ITC/\DeltaCom local or tandem
           switching system, SS7 Network Interconnection shall include
           intermediate GTT of messages to a gateway pair of ITC/\DeltaCom local
           STPs, and shall not include SCCP Subsystem Management of the

16.        BASIC 911 AND E911

           If ITC/\DeltaCom orders unbundled network elements, then
           ITC/\DeltaCom is also responsible for providing E911 to its end
           users. BellSouth agrees to offer access to the 911/E911 network
           pursuant to the following terms and conditions set forth in
           Attachment 11.

16.1       Definition

           Basic 911 and E911 is an additional requirement that provides a
           caller access to the applicable emergency service bureau by dialing a
           3-digit universal telephone number (911).

16.2       REQUIREMENTS

16.2.1     BASIC 911 SERVICE PROVISIONING. For Basic 911 service, BellSouth will
           provide to ITC/\DeltaCom a list consisting of each municipality that
           subscribes to Basic 911 service. The list will also provide, if
           known, the E911 conversion date for each municipality and, for
           network routing purposes, a ten-digit directory number representing
           the appropriate emergency answering position for each municipality
           subscribing to 911. ITC/\DeltaCom will be required to arrange to
           accept 911 calls from its end users in municipalities that subscribe
           to Basic 911 service and translate the 911 call to the appropriate
           10-digit directory number as stated on the list provided by
           BellSouth. ITC/\DeltaCom will be required to route that call to
           BellSouth at the appropriate tandem or end office. When a
           municipality converts to E911 service, ITC/\DeltaCom will be required
           to discontinue the Basic 911 procedures and being using E911
           procedures.

                                                                         PAGE 57

16.2.2     E911 SERVICE PROVISIONING. For E911 service, ITC/\DeltaCom will be
           required to install a minimum of two dedicated trunks originating
           from the ITC/\DeltaCom serving wire center and terminating to the
           appropriate E911 tandem. The dedicated trunks shall be, at a minimum,
           DS-0 level trunks configured either as a 2-wire analog interface or
           as part of a digital (1.544 Mb/s) interface. Either configuration
           shall use CAMA-type signaling with multifrequency ("MF") pulsing that
           will deliver automatic number identification ("ANI") with the voice
           portion of the call. If the user interface is digital, MF pulses, as
           well as other AC signals, shall be encoded per the u-255 Law
           convention. ITC/\DeltaCom will be required to provide BellSouth daily
           updates to the E911 database. ITC/\DeltaCom will be required to
           forward 911 calls to the appropriate E911 tandem, along with ANI,
           based upon the current E911 end office to tandem homing arrangement
           as provided by BellSouth. If the E911 tandem trunks are not
           available, ITC/\DeltaCom will be required to route the call to a
           designated 7-digit local number residing in the appropriate Public
           Service Answering Point ("PSAP"). This call will be transported over
           BellSouth's interoffice network and will not carry the ANI of the
           calling party. ITC/\DeltaCom shall be responsible for providing
           BellSouth with complete and accurate data for submission to the
           911/E911 database for the purpose of providing 911/E911 to its end
           users.

16.2.3     RATES. Charges for 911/E911 service are borne by the municipality
           purchasing the service. BellSouth will impose no charge on
           ITC/\DeltaCom beyond applicable charges for BellSouth trunking
           arrangements.

16.2.4     Basic 911 and E911 functions provided to ITC/\DeltaCom shall be at
           least at parity with the support and services that BellSouth provides
           to its customers for such similar functionality.

16.2.5     DETAILED PRACTICES AND PROCEDURES. The detailed practices and
           procedures contained in the E911 Local Exchange Carrier Guide For
           Facility-Based Providers as amended from time to time during the term
           of this Agreement will determine the appropriate practices and
           procedures for BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom to follow in providing
           911/E911 services. BellSouth shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom with updates
           and the latest available copies of said Guides via webposting.

           accordance with all applicable provisions of the Act and the rules
           and orders of the Federal Communications Commission and the
           applicable state commissions.

17.2.      UNBUNDLED NETWORK ELEMENTS

           The prices that ITC/\DeltaCom shall pay to BellSouth for Unbundled
           Network Elements are set forth in Attachment 11.

17.3       Operational Support Systems (OSS)

BellSouth has developed and made available the following mechanized systems by
which ITC/\DeltaCom may submit LSRs electronically.

           LENS              Local Exchange Navigation System
           EDI               Electronic Data  Interchange
           TAG               Telecommunications Access Gateway

17.3.1     LSRs submitted by means of one of these interactive interfaces will
           incur an OSS electronic ordering charge as specified in the table
           below. An individual LSR will be identified for billing purposes by
           its Purchase Order Number (PON). LSRs submitted by means other than
           one of these interactive interfaces (mail, fax, courier, etc.) will
           incur a manual order charge as specified in the table below:

17.3.2     DENIAL/RESTORAL OSS CHARGE

           In the event ITC/\DeltaCom provides a list of customers to be denied
           and restored, rather than an LSR, each location on the list will
           require a separate PON and, therefore will be billed as one LSR per
           location.

17.3.3     CANCELLATION OSS CHARGE

           ITC/\DeltaCom will incur an OSS charge for an accepted LSR that is
           later canceled by ITC/\DeltaCom.

           Note: Supplements or clarifications to a previously billed LSR will
           not incur another OSS charge.

           Services ordered by means other than one of the interactive
           interfaces. These ordered Network Elements and Other Services manual
           additive NRCs will apply in these states, rather than the charge per
           LSR. The per-element charges are listed on the Rate Tables in

                              LOCAL INTERCONNECTION

1.0       SCOPE

          BellSouth shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom interconnection with BellSouth's
          network for the transmission and routing of Telephone Exchange Service
          traffic and Exchange Access traffic pursuant to Section 251 (c)(2) of
          the Act on the terms and conditions specified in this ATTACHMENT 3.

1.1       LOCAL TRAFFIC

          Local Traffic is defined as any telephone call that is originated by
          an end user of one Party and terminated to an end user of the other
          Party within a given LATA on that other Party's network, except for
          those calls that are originated or terminated through switched access
          arrangements as established by the ruling regulatory body.
          Additionally, Local Traffic includes any cross boundary intrastate,
          interLATA or interstate, interLATA call between specific wire centers
          established as a local call by the ruling regulatory body. As further
          clarification, Local Traffic does not include calls that do not
          transmit information of the user's choosing. In any event, neither
          Party will pay reciprocal compensation to the other if the "traffic"
          to which such reciprocal compensation would otherwise apply was
          artificially generated or manufactured with the knowledge or consent
          of either Party, in whole or in part, for the primary purpose of
          creating an obligation on the part of the originating carrier to pay
          reciprocal compensation for such traffic.

1.2       NETWORK INTERCONNECTION

          At each Party's option, Interconnection in each LATA may be
          accomplished at any technically feasible point within the Parties'
          networks, including without limitation the trunk side of any local
          switch; trunk interconnection points for any tandem switch; central
          office cross connect points; out-of-band signal transfer points; and
          the points of access to unbundled elements. Requests to BellSouth for
          interconnection at other points may be made through the Bona Fide
          Request/New Business Request process set out in General Terms and
          Conditions and Attachment 9. Interconnection may be established by the
          Parties via (i) Collocation as provided in ATTACHMENT 4 to the
          Agreement; (ii) establishment of a Fiber Meet as provided in SECTIONS
          1.6 hereof; or (iii) interconnection via purchase of facilities from
          either Party by the other Party.

          ITC/\DeltaCom shall establish at least one Point of Presence,
          Interface, and Interconnection with BellSouth per LATA for the
          delivery of ITC/\DeltaCom's originated local and intraLATA toll and
          transit traffic. ITC/\DeltaCom may designate additional Points of
          Interconnection in such LATA pursuant to this Agreement. If
          ITC/\DeltaCom chooses to

                                                                          PAGE 2

          interconnect at a single Point of Interconnection within a LATA, the
          interconnection must be at a BellSouth Access Tandem.
          Furthermore,ITC/\DeltaCom must establish Points of Interconnection at
          all BellSouth access and local tandems whereITC/\DeltaCom NXXs are
          "homed." A "Homing" arrangement is defined by a "Final" Trunk Group
          between the BellSouth Tandem andITC/\DeltaCom End Office switch. A
          "Final" Trunk Group is the last choice telecommunications path between
          the Tandem and End Office switch. It isITC/\DeltaCom's responsibility
          to enter its own NPA/NXX access and/or local tandem "homing"
          arrangements into the national Local Exchange Routing Guide (LERG).
          For BellSouth's originated traffic to be terminated by ITC/\DeltaCom,
          BellSouth may designate a Point of Interface at one or more of
          ITC/\DeltaCom's POPs within each LATA in which ITC/\DeltaCom is
          providing local service.

1.2.1     In order forITC/\DeltaCom to home its NPA/NXX(s) on a BellSouth
          Tandem,ITC/\DeltaCom's NPA/NXX(s) must be assigned to an Exchange Rate
          Center Area served by that BellSouth Tandem and as specified by
          BellSouth. The specified association between BellSouth Tandems and
          Exchange Rate Center Areas is defined in the Local Exchange Routing
          Guide (LERG). To the extent that as of the date hereof, existing
          arrangements do not comply with this section, the Parties will work
          cooperatively to transition existing arrangements to comply with this
          section.

1.2.2     For the purposes of this Attachment, the POINT OF INTERCONNECTION is
          the point at which the originating Party delivers its originated
          traffic to the terminating Party's first point of switching on the
          terminating Party's common (shared) network for call transport and
          termination. Points of Interconnection are available at either Access
          Tandems, Local Tandems, or End Offices as described in this Agreement.
          ITC/\DeltaCom's requested Point of Interconnection will also be used
          for the receipt and delivery of transit traffic at BellSouth Access
          and Local Tandems. Points of Interconnection established at the
          BellSouth Local Tandem apply only to ITC/\DeltaCom -originated local
          and local originating and terminating transit traffic.

1.2.3     For the purposes of this Attachment , a POINT OF PRESENCE (POP) is the
          physical location (a structure where the environmental, power, air
          conditioning, etc. specifications for a Party's terminating equipment
          can be met) at which a Party establishes itself for obtaining access
          to the other Party's network. The POP is the physical location within
          which the Point of Interfaces occur.

1.2.4     For the purposes of this Attachment , a POINT OF INTERFACE is the
          physical telecommunications interface between BellSouth and
          ITC/\DeltaCom's interconnection functions. It establishes the
          technical interface and point of operational responsibility. The
          primary function of the Point of Interface is to serve as the terminus
          for the interconnection service. The Point of Interface has the
          following main characteristics:

          1.      It is a cross-connect point to allow connection,
                  disconnection, transfer or restoration of service.

                                                                          PAGE 3

          2.      It is a point where BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom can verify and
                  maintain specific performance objectives.
          3.      It is specified according to the interface offered in the
                  tariff or local interconnection agreement (for example: for
                  DS1 service the FCC # 1 tariff specifies that the interface
                  meets the technical specifications detailed in Generic
                  Requirements GR-342-CORE, Issue 1, December 1995.)
          4.      The Parties provide their own equipment (CPE) to interface
                  with the DS0, DS1, DS3, STS1 and/or OCn circuits on the
                  customer premises.

1.2.5     ITC/\DeltaCom, at its option, shall establish Points of Presence and
          Points of Interface for the delivery of its originated local and
          intraLATA toll traffic to BellSouth. The Point of Interface may not
          necessarily be established at the Point of Interconnection.

1.2.6     BellSouth shall designate the Points of Presence and Points of
          Interface for the delivery of its originated local and intraLATA toll
          traffic to ITC/\DeltaCom for call transport and termination by
          ITC/\DeltaCom. ITC/\DeltaCom will not unreasonably refuse to
          interconnect at a Point of Interface designated by BellSouth including
          providing BellSouth collocation at ITC/\DeltaCom's POPs within each
          LATA. In the establishment of BellSouth's Point of Interface, if
          BellSouth chooses to collocate with ITC/\DeltaCom, BellSouth will pay
          ITC/\DeltaCom collocation charges at rates no more than the BellSouth
          collocation rates.

1.2.7     The Party requesting interconnection shall provide written notice to
          the other Party to change from one of the interconnection methods
          specified above to another of the networks specified above. The
          parties shall negotiate in good faith the interval for changing the
          interconnection methods. A mutually acceptable third party contractor
          can be employed by the Party making the change.

1.2.8     Based on the physical architecture and Reciprocal Compensation
          arrangements that the Parties have agreed to in this Agreement, each
          Party shall be responsible for establishing and maintaining facilities
          and trunking at its own expense, on its side of the Point of Interface
          to provide for the transmission, routing and termination of Telephone
          Exchange Service traffic and Exchange Access traffic to their
          respective End Users, consistent with the standards set forth in this
          Agreement.

1.2.9     Each Party shall be responsible for routing calls to the Point of
          Interface for termination via the other's facilities. Either Party may
          use the Point of Interface for the interconnection of other types of
          services, such as toll services, subject to the applicable rates for
          such traffic. The Parties agree that no interexchange access services
          traffic will be exchanged as local traffic.

          1.2.9.1 If either party initiates a network redesign or
                  reconfiguration and asks the other Party to reconfigure its
                  existing network to accommodate the requesting Party, the
                  requesting Party will waive any applicable nonrecurring
                  charges otherwise payable by the other Party to meet such
                  request. The foregoing waiver of

                  charges shall not apply when such reconfiguration is required
                  due to exhaust situations or to comply with a Commission or
                  FCC rule or order.

          1.2.9.2 Each Party shall be solely responsible for the installation,
                  operation and maintenance of equipment and facilities provided
                  by it for Interconnection, subject to compatibility and
                  cooperative testing and monitoring, and the specific operation
                  and maintenance provisions for equipment and facilities used
                  to provide Interconnection.

          1.2.9.3 The intervals for installation, maintenance, and repair of
                  facilities and services associated with or used in conjunction
                  with Interconnection shall be determined in accordance with
                  the requirements of Attachment 10 to the Agreement.

1.3       METHODS OF INTERCONNECTION

          Each Party at its election shall have the sole right and descretion to
          specify any one of the following methods for interconnection at the
          POI:

                  a)     a Fiber-Meet as set forth in Section 1.3.2 of this
                         Attachment;

                  b)     a collocation facility which it maintains at the other
                         Party's POI wire center (i.e., physical collocation as
                         set forth in Attachment 4 of this Agreement);

                  c)     a collocation facility maintained at the POI wire
                         center by a third party with whom the Party requesting
                         interconnection has contracted for such purpose;or

                  d)     Interconnection via purchase of leased facility(ies) as
                         set forth in Section 1.3.1 below.

1.3.1     INTERCONNECTION VIA PURCHASE OF FACILITIES

          1.3.1.1 Either Party may purchase Local Channel facilities from the
                  Party's specified Point of Interface to its designated serving
                  wire center. The Parties agree that charges for such Local
                  Channel facilities are as set forth in Attachment 11. If a
                  nonrecurring or recurring rate is not identified in Attachment
                  11 for a Local Channel, the rate shall be as set forth in the
                  appropriate BellSouth intrastate or interstate tariff for
                  switched access services.

                  1.3.1.1.1 Additionally, either Party may purchase Dedicated
                         Transport facilities from its designated serving wire
                         center to the other Party's first point of switching.

                                                                          PAGE 5

                         agree that charges for such Dedicated Transport
                         facilities are as set forth in Attachment 11. If a
                         nonrecurring or recurring rate is not identified in
                         Attachment 11 for Dedicated Transport, the rate shall
                         be as set forth in the appropriate BellSouth intrastate
                         or interstate tariff for switched access services.

          1.3.1.2 For the purposes of this Attachment, Local Channel is defined
                  as a switch transport facility between a Party's Point of
                  Presence and its designated serving wire center.

          1.3.1.3 For the purposes of this Attachment, Serving Wire Center is
                  defined as the wire center owned by one Party from which the
                  other Party would normally obtain dial tone for its Point of
                  Presence.

          1.3.1.4 For the purposes of this Attachment, Dedicated Transport is
                  defined as a switch transport facility between a Party's
                  designated serving wire center and the first point of
                  switching on the other Party's common (shared) network.

1.3.2     FIBER MEET "Fiber-Meet" or "Mid-Span Meet" means an Interconnection
          architecture method whereby the Parties physically interconnect their
          networks via an optical fiber interface (as opposed to an electrical
          interface) at a mutually agreed upon location, at which one Party's
          responsibility or service begins and the other Party's responsibility
          ends.

          1.3.2.1 If ITC/\DeltaCom elects to interconnect with BellSouth
                  pursuant to a Fiber Meet, ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth shall
                  jointly engineer and operate a Synchronous Optical Network
                  ("SONET") transmission system by which they shall interconnect
                  their networks for the transmission and routing of Telephone
                  Exchange Service traffic pursuant to Section 251 (c)(2) of the
                  Act. The Parties shall work together to determine the specific
                  SONET transmission system. However, ITC/\DeltaCom's SONET
                  transmission system must be compatible with BellSouth's
                  equipment in the Serving Wire Center. The Parties respective
                  equipment and software versions must be compatible with each
                  other and the data communications channel must be turned off.
                  BellSouth reserves the right to determine the equipment (and
                  compatibility thereof) that it employs for service.

          1.3.2.2 BellSouth shall, wholly at its own expense, procure, install
                  and maintain the agreed upon SONET equipment in the BellSouth
                  central office within the interconnection wire center.

          1.3.2.3 ITC/\DeltaCom shall, wholly at its own expense, procure,
                  install and maintain the agreed upon SONET equipment in the
                  ITC/\DeltaCom central office within the interconnection wire
                  center.

          1.3.2.4 BellSouth shall designate a Point of Interface outside the
                  BellSouth central office within the interconnection wire
                  center as a Fiber Meet point, and shall make all necessary
                  preparations to receive, and to allow and enable ITC/\DeltaCom
                  to deliver, fiber optic facilities into the Point of Interface
                  with sufficient spare length to reach the fusion splice point
                  at the Point of Interface. BellSouth shall, wholly at its own
                  expense, procure, install and maintain the fusion splicing
                  point in the Point of Interface. A Common Language Location
                  Identification ("CLLI") code will be established for each
                  Point of Interface. The code established must be a building
                  type code. All orders shall originate from the Point of
                  Interface (i.e., Point of Interface to ITC/\DeltaCom, Point of
                  Interface to BellSouth).

          1.3.2.5 ITC/\DeltaCom shall deliver and maintain such strands wholly
                  at its own expense. Upon verbal request by ITC/\DeltaCom,
                  BellSouth shall allow ITC/\DeltaCom access to the Fiber Meet
                  entry point for maintenance purposes as promptly as possible.

          1.3.2.6 The Parties shall jointly coordinate and undertake maintenance
                  of the SONET transmission system. Each Party shall be
                  responsible for maintaining the components of the SONET
                  transmission system (e.g., software upgrades).

          1.3.2.7 Each Party will be responsible for (i) providing its own
                  transport facilities to the Fiber Meet, (ii) the cost to
                  build-out its facilities to such Fiber Meet, and (iii)
                  ITC/\DeltaCom can use BellSouth's dark fiber leases as
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's portion of the network between the
                  ITC/\DeltaCom POP and the Point of Interface.

          1.3.2.8 Neither Party shall charge the other for its portion of the
                  Fiber Meet facility used exclusively for non-transit local
                  traffic (i.e. the Local Channel). Charges incurred for other
                  services including dedicated transport facilities to the Point
                  of Interconnection if applicable will apply. Charges for
                  Switched and Special Access Services shall be billed in
                  accordance with the applicable Access Service tariff (i.e. the
                  BellSouth Interstate or Intrastate Access Services Tariff).

1.4.1     If ITC/\DeltaCom elects to offer Telephone Exchange Services in any
          other LATA in which BellSouth also offers Telephone Exchange Services,
          ITC/\DeltaCom shall provide written notice to BellSouth of the need to
          establish Interconnection in such additional LATA pursuant to this
          Agreement.

1.4.2     The notice provided in SECTION 1.7.1 shall include (i) the initial
          Point of Interface ITC/\DeltaCom has designated for its originated
          traffic in the new LATA; (ii) ITC/\DeltaCom's requested
          Interconnection Activation Date; and (iii) a non-binding forecast of
          ITC/\DeltaCom's trunking requirements.

1.5       ADDITIONAL INTERCONNECTION IN EXISTING LATAS

          If ITC/\DeltaCom wishes to establish additional or new Point(s) of
          Interface in any LATA, ITC/\DeltaCom shall provide written notice
          thereof to BellSouth. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall
          apply to such Interconnection. BellSouth shall not unreasonably refuse
          to interconnect for the delivery of ITC/\DeltaCom traffic at each
          ITC/\DeltaCom Point of Interface (e.g., Points of collocation,
          existing entrance facilities, or any other mutually agreeable
          location). The Parties shall negotiate in good faith the interval for
          such additional or new Point of Interface. If and when either Party
          deploys a new tandem switch or rehomes end offices, the Party
          initiating such change shall notify all interconnectors (including
          LERG updates) so that affected Parties may establish proper
          interconnection arrangements.

1.6       PERCENT LOCAL USAGE/PERCENT INTERSTATE USAGE

          PERCENT LOCAL USE. Each Party will report to the other a Percentage
          Local Usage ("PLU"). The application of the PLU will determine the
          amount of local minutes to be billed to the other party. For purposes
          of developing the PLU, each party shall consider every local call and
          every long distance call, excluding intermediary traffic. Effective on
          the first of January, April, July and October of each year, BellSouth
          and ITC/\DeltaCom shall provide a positive report updating the PLU.
          Detailed requirements associated with PLU reporting shall be as set
          forth in BellSouth's Standard Percent Local Use Reporting Platform for
          Interconnection Purchasers, as it is amended from time to time during
          this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, where the terminating
          company has message recording technology that identifies the traffic
          terminated, such information, in lieu of the PLU factor, shall upon
          mutual agreement of the Parties be utilized to determine the
          appropriate local usage compensation to be paid.

          PERCENTAGE INTERSTATE USAGE. Both Party's based on their respective
          tariffs for combined interstate and intrastate traffic terminated by
          the other Party over the same facilities, will be required to provide
          a projected Percentage Interstate Usage ("PIU") to the other Party.
          All jurisdictional report requirements, rules and regulations for
          Interexchange Carriers specified in the Parties' Access Services
          Tariff will apply. After interstate and intrastate traffic percentages
          have been determined by use of PIU procedures, the PLU factor will be
          used for application and billing of local interconnection.
          Notwithstanding the foregoing, where the terminating company has
          message recording technology that identifies the traffic terminated,
          such information, in lieu of the PLU factor, shall upon mutual
          agreement of the Parties be utilized to determine the appropriate
          local usage compensation to be paid.

2.0       AUDITS

          On thirty (30) days written notice, each party must provide the other
          the ability and opportunity to conduct an annual audit to ensure the
          proper billing of traffic. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall retain
          records of call detail for a minimum of nine months from which a PLU
          can be ascertained. The audit shall be accomplished during normal
          business hours at an office designated by the party being audited.
          Audit requests shall not be submitted more frequently than one (1)
          time per calendar year. Audits shall be performed by a mutually
          acceptable independent auditory paid for by the party requesting the
          audit. The PLU and/or PIU shall be adjusted based upon the audit
          results and shall apply to the usage for the quarter the audit was
          completed, to the usage for the quarter prior to the completion of the
          audit, and to the usage for the two quarters following the completion
          of the audit. If, as a result of an audit, either Party is found to
          have overstated the PLU and/or PIU by twenty percentage points (20%)
          or more, that Party shall reimburse the auditing Party for the cost of
          the audit.

3.0       METHODS OF INTERCONNECTION

3.1       SCOPE OF TRAFFIC

          This Section prescribes parameters for trunk groups to be effected
          over the Interconnections specified in this Attachment 3 hereof for
          the transmission and routing of Telephone Exchange Service Traffic,
          IntraLATA Toll Traffic and Exchange Access Traffic. The Parties agree
          for the purpose of this Attachment that Local Interconnection is as
          defined in Part B of the General Terms and Conditions of this
          Agreement.

3.2       INTERCONNECTION TRUNKING AND ROUTING

3.2.1     Trunking Options. Each of the following trunking arrangements shall be
          available to either Party, unless BellSouth demonstrates, consistent
          with objectively verifiable engineering standards, that such
          arrangement is not

          technically feasible. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall establish
          interconnecting trunk groups and trunking configurations between
          networks including the establishment of one-way or two-way trunks in
          accordance with the following conditions:

                                                                         PAGE 10

3.2.1.1 INITIAL TRUNKING CONFIGURATION. At the specified Points of Interface per
this Agreement, ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth shall interconnect using one-way
trunk groups. One group carries ITC/\DeltaCom-originated local and intraLATA
toll traffic destined for BellSouth end-users. The other group carries
BellSouth-originated local and intraLATA toll traffic destined for ITC/\DeltaCom
end-users. A trunk group must be established as a two-way group from the
ITC/\DeltaCom switch to BellSouth access tandem(s) or local tandem(s) as
specified in this Agreement. This group carries intratandem transit traffic
between ITC/\DeltaCom and Independent Companies, Interexchange Carriers, other
CLECs and other network providers with which ITC/\DeltaCom desires
interconnection and has the proper contractual arrangements. If MTA is ordered
to the BellSouth access tandem, this group may also carry intertandem traffic
between ITC/\DeltaCom and Independent Companies, other CLECs, and other network
providers (except Interexchange Carriers) with which ITC/\DeltaCom desires
interconnection and has the proper contractual arrangements as specified in this
Agreement. Other trunk groups for operator services, directory assistance,
emergency services and intercept may be established if required.

3.2.1.2   TWO-WAY TRUNKING CONFIGURATION. Two-Way Trunk Interconnection
          establishes two-way trunk groups to carry local and intraLATA toll
          traffic between ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth. ITC/\DeltaCom and
          BellSouth must agree to the "BellSouth Two-way Trunking Rules"
          (described later in this attachment) in order to establish this
          architecture. The other parameters are similar to one-way trunk
          interconnection as described by the Initial Trunking architecture
          above. Other trunk groups for operator services, directory assistance,
          emergency services and intercept may be established if required.

3.2.1.3   SUPERGROUP TRUNKING CONFIGURATION. In the Supergroup arrangement, all
          local, intraLATA toll and transit traffic is carried on a single
          two-way trunk group between the ITC/\DeltaCom switch and each
          BellSouth access tandem within a LATA. ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth
          must agree to the " BellSouth Two-way Trunking Rules" in order to
          establish this architecture. Other trunk groups for operator services,
          directory assistance, emergency services and intercept may be
          established if required.

3.2.1.4   PREFERRED TRUNKING CONFIGURATION. At the specified Points of Interface
          per this Agreement, all ITC/\DeltaCom-to-BellSouth local, two-way
          intraLATA toll and two-way transit traffic is carried on a single
          two-way trunk group between the ITC/\DeltaCom switch and BellSouth
          access tandem(s) within a LATA. BellSouth-to-ITC/\DeltaCom local and
          intraLATA Toll traffic is carried on one-way trunk groups terminating
          to the ITC/\DeltaCom switch. Other trunk groups for operator services,
          directory assistance, emergency services and intercept may be
          established if required.

3.2.2     BellSouth Two-Way Trunking Rules

                  3.2.2.1 ITC/\DeltaCom will initiate 2-way trunk request, and
                          BellSouth will concur. However, 2-way trunks will be
                          jointly provisioned.

                  3.2.2.2 Point of Interface will be located at a mutually
                          agreed location or point designated by BellSouth. If
                          an agreement cannot be reached on the location North

                                                                         PAGE 11

                          of the Point of Interface, each company will establish
                          its own Point of Interface and order 1-way trunks.

                  3.2.2.3 BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom will jointly review the
                          trunk forecast, as needed, on a periodic basis, or at
                          least every six (6) months.

                  3.2.2.4 ITC/\DeltaCom will order trunks using ASR process in
                          place for Local Interconnection after the joint
                          planning meeting takes place between BellSouth and
                          ITC/\DeltaCom.

                  3.2.2.5 BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom must agree on Standard
                          Traffic Engineering parameters that will be used in
                          the engineering of the trunk groups.

                  3.2.2.6 BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom must agree to meet and
                          resolve service-affecting situations in a timely
                          manner.

                  3.2.2.7 Establishing a 2-way trunk group does not preclude
                          BellSouth or ITC/\DeltaCom from adding 1-way trunk
                          groups within the same Local Calling Area.

                  3.2.2.8 For technical reasons, 2-way trunk groups may not be
                          ordered to a BellSouth DMS100 Local Tandem or DMS100
                          End Office.

                  3.2.2.9 BellSouth will be responsible for the installation and
                          maintenance of its trunks and facilities to the
                          mutually agreed Point of Interface, and ITC/\DeltaCom
                          will be responsible for the installation and
                          maintenance of its trunks and facilities to the
                          mutually agreed to Point of Inteface.

3.2.3     Any ITC/\DeltaCom interconnection request that deviates from the
          standard trunking configurations as described in this section or the
          BellSouth Call Transport & Termination Service For Facility Based
          CLECs section of the Facility Based CLEC Activation Requirements
          Customer Guide that affects traffic delivered toITC/\DeltaCom from a
          BellSouth switch that requires special BellSouth switch translations
          and other network modifications will requireITC/\DeltaCom to submit a
          Bona Fide Request/New Business Request via the Bona Fide Request/New
          Business Request Process set forth in General Terms and Conditions and
          in Attachment 9.

3.2.4     All terms and conditions, as well as charges, both non-recurring and
          recurring, associated with interconnecting trunk groups between
          BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom not addressed in Attachment 11 shall be as
          set forth in the appropriate BellSouth intrastate or interstate tariff
          for switched access services. For two-way trunking that carries the
          Parties' local and intraLATA toll traffic, excluding transit traffic,
          the Parties shall be compensated for the nonrecurring and recurring
          charges for trunks and DS1 facilities at 50% of the applicable
          contractual or tariff rates for the services provided by each Party.
          ITC/\DeltaCom shall be responsible for ordering and paying for any
          two-way trunks carrying transit traffic.

3.2.5     The Parties shall utilize direct end office trunking under the
          following conditions:

                         (1) Tandem Exhaust - If a tandem through which the
                         Parties are interconnected is unable to, or is
                         forecasted to be unable to support additional traffic
                         loads for any period of time, the Parties will mutually
                         agree on an end office trunking plan that will
                         alleviate the tandem capacity shortage and ensure
                         completion of traffic between ITC/\DeltaCom and
                         BellSouth's subscribers.

                         (2) Traffic Volume -To the extent either Party has the
                         capability to measure the amount of traffic between a
                         ITC/\DeltaCom switching center and a BellSouth end
                         office, either Party shall install and retain direct
                         end office trunking sufficient to handle actual or
                         reasonably forecasted traffic volumes, whichever is
                         greater, between a ITC/\DeltaCom switching center and a
                         BellSouth end office where the traffic exceeds or is
                         forecasted to exceed a single DS1 of local traffic per
                         month. Either Party will install additional capacity
                         between such points when overflow traffic between
                         ITC/\DeltaCom's switching center and BellSouth's end
                         office exceeds or is forecasted to exceed a single DS1
                         of local traffic per month. In the case of one way
                         trunking, additional trunking shall only be required by
                         the Party whose trunking has achieved the preceding
                         usage threshold.

                         (3) Mutual Agreement - The Parties may install direct
                         end office trunking upon mutual agreement in the
                         absence of the conditions (1) or (2) above and
                         agreement will not unreasonably be withheld.

3.2.6     Switched Access traffic will be delivered to and by IXCs based on
          ITC/\DeltaCom's NXX Access Tandem homing arrangement as specified by
          ITC/\DeltaCom in the national Local Exchange Routing Guide (LERG).

3.2.7     All trunk groups will be provisioned as Signaling System 7 (SS7)
          capable where technically feasible.

3.3       MULTIPLE TANDEM ACCESS. BellSouth multiple tandem access (MTA) applies
          to the termination of ITC/\DeltaCom-originated traffic and does not
          apply to traffic ITC/\DeltaCom receives from other parties or to
          switched access traffic. Within each LATA, ITC/\DeltaCom must
          interconnect at all BellSouth access tandems where ITC/\DeltaCom NXXs
          are "homed". However, if ITC/\DeltaCom does not have NXXs homed at
          each BellSouth access tandem within a LATA and elects not to
          interconnect at such BellSouth access tandems where no NXXs are homed,
          ITC/\DeltaCom must order MTA in each BellSouth access tandem within
          the LATA where it interconnects to the extent it desires to terminate
          traffic to customers served through BellSouth access tandems in the
          LATA to which ITC/\DeltaCom has not interconnected. MTA shall be
          provisioned in accordance with BellSouth's Ordering Guidelines.

                                                                         PAGE 13

          3.3.1   With MTA, compensation for the BellSouth transport and
                  termination of ITC/\DeltaCom's local and intraLATA toll
                  traffic will be billed on an elemental basis at the applicable
                  rates specified in Attachment 11 for local traffic and in the
                  BellSouth intrastate access tariff for intraLATA toll traffic
                  on a statewide basis.

          3.3.2   MTA does not include switched access traffic that transits the
                  BellSouth network to an Interexchange Carrier (IXC). Switched
                  Access traffic will be delivered to and by IXCs based on
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's NXX Access Tandem homing arrangement as
                  specified byITC/\DeltaCom n the national Local Exchange
                  Routing Guide (LERG).

          3.3.3   ForITC/\DeltaCom-originated local and intraLATA toll traffic
                  that BellSouth transports but is destined for termination by a
                  third Party network (transit traffic), BellSouth MTA is
                  required if multiple BellSouth access tandems are necessary to
                  deliver the call to the third Party network.

          3.3.4   To the extentITC/\DeltaCom does not purchase MTA in a calling
                  area that has multiple access tandems serving the calling area
                  as defined by BellSouth,ITC/\DeltaCom must establish Points of
                  Interconnection to every access tandem in the calling area in
                  order to serve the entire calling area. To the
                  extentITC/\DeltaCom does not purchase MTA and provides
                  intraLATA toll service to its customers, it may be necessary
                  for it to establish a Point of Interconnection to additional
                  BellSouth access tandems that serve end offices outside the
                  local calling area.

3.4       LOCAL TANDEM INTERCONNECTION. This interconnection arrangement allows
          ITC/\DeltaCom to establish a Point of Interconnection at BellSouth
          local tandems for: (1) the delivery of ITC/\DeltaCom-originated local
          traffic transported and terminated by BellSouth to BellSouth end
          offices within the local calling area as defined in BellSouth's GSST,
          section A3 served by those BellSouth local tandems, and (2) for local
          transit traffic transported by BellSouth for third party network
          providers who have also established Points of Interconnection at those
          BellSouth local tandems.

          3.4.1   When a specified local calling area is served by more than one
                  BellSouth local tandem, ITC/\DeltaCom must designate a "home"
                  local tandem for each of its assigned NPA/NXXs and establish
                  trunk connections to such local tandems. Additionally,
                  ITC/\DeltaCom may choose to establish a Point of
                  Interconnection at the BellSouth local tandems where it has no
                  codes homing but is not required to do so. ITC/\DeltaCom may
                  deliver local traffic to a "home" BellSouth local tandem that
                  is destined for other BellSouth or third party network
                  provider end offices subtending other BellSouth local tandems
                  in the same local calling area where ITC/\DeltaCom does not
                  choose to establish a Point of Interconnection. It

                                                                         PAGE 14

                  is ITC/\DeltaCom's responsibility to enter its own NPA/NXX
                  local tandem homing arrangements into the Local Exchange
                  Routing Guide (LERG) either directly or via a vendor in order
                  for other third party network providers to determine
                  appropriate traffic routing to ITC/\DeltaCom's codes.
                  Likewise, ITC/\DeltaCom shall obtain its routing information
                  from the LERG.

          3.4.2   Notwithstanding establishing Points of Interconnection to
                  BellSouth's local tandems, ITC/\DeltaCom must also establish
                  Points of Interconnection to BellSouth access tandems within
                  the LATA on which ITC/\DeltaCom has NPA/NXX's homed for the
                  delivery of Interexchange Carrier Switched Access (SWA) and
                  toll traffic, and traffic to Type 2A CMRS connections located
                  at the access tandems. BellSouth cannot switch SWA traffic
                  through more than one BellSouth access tandem. SWA, Type 2A
                  CMRS or toll traffic routed to the local tandem in error will
                  not be backhauled to the BellSouth access tandem for
                  completion. (Type 2A CMRS interconnection is defined in
                  BellSouth's A35 General Subscriber Services Tariff.)

          3.4.3   BellSouth's provisioning of local tandem interconnection
                  assumes thatITC/\DeltaCom has executed the necessary local
                  interconnection agreements with the other third party network
                  providers subtending those local tandems as required by the
                  Act.

3.5       Direct connection to an End Office shall provide the Party requesting
          Interconnection with access to all valid NXX codes served by that End
          Office. Direct end office trunking may not be unreasonably withheld.
          Trunking can be established to tandems or end offices or a combination
          as mutually agreed.

3.6       If a pre-existing trunk group is unable to support additional traffic
          loads, or consistent with standard trunk engineering practices, is
          reasonably forecasted as specified in accordance with Section 4.4 to
          be unable to support additional traffic loads, each Party shall, upon
          request of the other Party, provision additional trunks to expand the
          capacity of such pre-existing trunk group (within the timeframes
          specified in Attachments 6 and 10 to the Agreement).

3.7       ITC/\DeltaCom may opt at any time to terminate to BellSouth some or
          all local exchange traffic and intraLATA toll traffic originating on
          its network, together with switched access traffic, via Feature Group
          B or D Switched Access services which ITC/\DeltaCom may otherwise
          purchase from BellSouth, subject to the rates, terms and conditions
          specified in BellSouth's applicable switched access tariffs. At no
          time shall ITC/\DeltaCom be required to route outbound traffic via
          facilities for which a full retail or end user toll charge would be
          assessed when parallel FG-B or FG-D routing, or routing via a
          different carrier exists which is capable of carrying and completing
          said traffic at more favorable rates. However, Switched Access Traffic
          will not be represented as Local Traffic.

4.0       NETWORK DESIGN AND MANAGEMENT FOR INTERCONNECTION

4.1       NETWORK MANAGEMENT AND CHANGES. BellSouth shall work cooperatively
          with ITC/\DeltaCom to install and maintain the most effective and
          reliable interconnected telecommunications networks, including but not
          limited to, the exchange of toll-free maintenance contact numbers and
          escalation procedures. BellSouth agrees to provide public notice of
          changes in the information necessary for the transmission and routing
          of services using its Local Exchange facilities or networks, as well
          as of any other changes that would affect the interoperability of
          those facilities and networks.

4.2       INTERCONNECTION- TECHNICAL STANDARDS. The interconnection of all
          networks will be based upon accepted industry/national guidelines for
          transmission standards and traffic blocking criteria. Interconnecting
          facilities shall conform, at a minimum, to the telecommunications
          industry standard of DS1 pursuant to Bellcore Standard No.
          TR-NWT-00499. Signal transfer point, Signaling System 7("SS7")
          connectivity is required at each interconnection point. BellSouth will
          provide out-of-band signaling using Common Channel Signaling Access
          Capability where technically and economically feasible, in accordance
          with the technical specifications set forth in the BellSouth
          Guidelines to Technical Publication, TR-TSV000905. Facilities of each
          Party shall provide the necessary on-hook, off-hook answer and
          disconnect supervision and shall hand off calling number ID when
          technically feasible.

4.3       NETWORK MANAGEMENT CONTROLS. Both Parties shall work cooperatively
          with each other to apply sound network management principles by
          invoking appropriate network management controls, e.g., call gapping,
          to alleviate or prevent network congestion.

4.4       FORECASTING REQUIREMENTS

          4.4.1   The Parties shall exchange technical descriptions and
                  forecasts of their Interconnection and traffic requirements in
                  sufficient detail necessary to establish the interconnections
                  required to assure traffic completion to and from all
                  customers in their respective designated service areas. In
                  order for BellSouth to provide as accurate reciprocal trunking
                  forecasts as possible to ITC/\DeltaCom, ITC/\DeltaCom must
                  timely inform BellSouth of any known or anticipated events
                  that may affect BellSouth reciprocal trunking requirements. If
                  ITC/\DeltaCom refuses to provide such information, BellSouth
                  shall provide reciprocal trunking forecasts based only on
                  existing trunk group growth and BellSouth's annual estimated
                  percentage of BellSouth subscriber line growth.

                                                                         PAGE 15

          4.4.2   Both Parties shall meet every six (6) months or at otherwise
                  mutually agreeable intervals for the purpose of exchanging
                  non-binding forecasts of their traffic and volume requirements
                  for the Interconnection and Network Elements provided under
                  this Agreement, in the form and in such detail as agreed by
                  the Parties. The Parties agree that each forecast provided
                  under this Section shall be deemed "Confidential Information"
                  under Section 9 of the General Terms and Conditions - Part A
                  of the Agreement.

          4.4.3   The trunk forecast should include trunk requirements for all
                  of the interconnecting trunk groups for the current year plus
                  the next two future years. The forecast meeting between the
                  Parties could be a face-to-face meeting, video conference or
                  audio conference. It could be held regionally or
                  geographically. Ideally, these forecast meetings should be
                  held at least semi-annually, or more often if the forecast is
                  no longer usable. Updates to a forecast or portions thereof,
                  should be made whenever the Party providing the forecast deems
                  that the latest trunk requirements exceed the original
                  quantities by 24 trunks or ten percent (10%), whichever is
                  greater. Either Party should notify the other Party if they
                  have measurements indicating that a trunk group is exceeding
                  its designed call carrying capacity and is impacting other
                  trunk groups in the network. Also, either Party should notify
                  the other Party if they know of situations where the traffic
                  load is expected to increase significantly and thus affect the
                  interconnecting trunk requirements as well as the trunk
                  requirements within the other Party's network. The Parties
                  agree that the forecast information provided under this
                  Section shall be deemed "Confidential Information" as
                  described in the General Terms and Conditions Part A of the
                  Agreement.

4.5       COMMON CHANNEL SIGNALING. Both Parties shall provide LEC-to-LEC Common
          Channel Signaling ("CCS") to each other, where available, in
          conjunction with all traffic in order to enable full interoperability
          of CLASS features and functions except for call return. All CCS
          signaling parameters will be provided, including automatic number
          identification ("ANI"), calling party number ("CPN"), originating line
          information ("OLI"), calling company category, charge number, etc. All
          privacy indicators will be honored, and each Party will cooperate with
          the other on the exchange of Transactional Capabilities Application
          Part ("TCAP") messages to facilitate full interoperability of
          CCS-based features between the respective networks. Where available,
          network signaling information such as Carrier Identification Parameter
          (CCS platform), at the standard tariff rates, and CIC/OZZ information
          (non-CCS environment) will be provided wherever such information is
          needed for call routing or billing. The Parties will follow all
          Ordering and Billing Forum (OBF) adopted standards pertaining to
          CIC/OZZ codes. Where CCS is not available, in-band multi-frequency
North Carolina
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 3
                                                                         PAGE 17

          (MF) wink start E&M channel Associated signaling will be provided.
          Such MF arrangements will require a separate trunk group between
          ITC/\DeltaCom's switch and one specified BellSouth switch.
          ITC/\DeltaCom shall establish CCS interconnection with BellSouth
          signal transfer points (STPs) in each LATA, either directly or via an
          intermediary STP provider.

          4.5.1   Where the interconnection is via B-link connections, charges
                  for the SS7 interconnection elements are as follows: 1) Port
                  Charge - BellSouth will not bill an STP port charge nor will
                  BellSouth agree to pay a port charge; 2) SS7 Network Usage -
                  BellSouth will bill SS7 Network Usage and will agree to pay
                  usage billed by ITC/\DeltaCom (to the extent that a flat rate
                  surrogate charge is billed by ITC/\DeltaCom, it will not
                  exceed BellSouth's charge); 3) SS7 Link- BellSouth will bill
                  for only two links of each quad ordered. Application of these
                  charges in this manner reflects the reciprocal use of the two
                  parties signaling networks.

          4.5.2   Where the interconnection is via A-link connections, charges
                  for the SS7 interconnection elements are as follows: 1) Port
                  Charge- BellSouth will bill an STP port charge and does not
                  agree to pay a termination charge at ITC/\DeltaCom's end
                  office; 2) SS7 Network Usage- BellSouth will bill for usage on
                  its SS7 network and will not agree to pay for any usage billed
                  by ITC/\DeltaCom; 3) Link- BellSouth will bill full charges
                  for each link in the A link pair and will not agree to pay
                  ITC/\DeltaCom for any portion of those links

          4.5.3   Call Information. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom will send and
                  receive 10 digits for local traffic. BellSouth and
                  ITC/\DeltaCom shall exchange the proper call information,
                  i.e., originated call company number and destination call
                  company number, CIC, and OZZ, including all proper
                  translations for routing between networks and any information
                  necessary for billing.

          4.5.4   Each Party is responsible for requesting Interconnection to
                  the other Party's CCS network, where SS7 signaling on the
                  trunk group(s) is desired. The Parties shall establish
                  Interconnection at the STP.

          4.5.5   Where available and upon the request of the other Party, each
                  Party shall cooperate to ensure that its trunk groups are
                  configured utilizing the B8ZS ESF protocol for 64 kbps clear
                  channel transmission to allow for ISDN interoperability
                  between the Parties' respective networks.

          4.5.6   All originating Toll Free Service calls for which BellSouth
                  performs the Service Switching Point (SSP) function (e.g.,
                  performs the

                                                                         PAGE 18

                  database query) shall be delivered by ITC/\DeltaCom using
                  GR-394 format over the transit trunk group. Carrier Code
                  "0110" and Circuit Code of "08" shall be used for all such
                  calls. In the event ITC/\DeltaCom becomes a toll free service
                  provider, BellSouth shall deliver traffic using the GR-394
                  format over a trunk group designated for Toll Free Service.

          4.5.7   All originating Toll Free Service calls for which
                  ITC/\DeltaCom performs the SSP function, if delivered to
                  BellSouth, shall be delivered by ITC/\DeltaCom using GR-394
                  format over the transit trunk group for calls destined to
                  IXCs, or shall be delivered by ITC/\DeltaCom using GR-317
                  format over the Local Interconnection Trunk Group for calls
                  destined to end offices that directly subtend BellSouth access
                  tandems.

5.0       PARITY

          Interconnection shall be equal in quality to that provided by the
          Parties to themselves or to any subsidiary, affiliate, or other party.
          Equal in quality means that interconnection facilities shall meet the
          same technical criteria and service standards that are used within the
          Parties' own networks, such as probability of blocking in peak hours
          and transmission standards.

5.1       The Parties shall provide Interconnection (i) in accordance with the
          requirements of this Attachment 3, (ii) in conformance with the
          Performance Standards listed in Attachment 10, and (iii) as required
          by the applicable state Commission and the FCC.

5.2       Local Dialing Parity

          Each Party shall provide local dialing parity, meaning that each
          Party's customers will not have to dial any greater number of digits
          than the other Party's customers to complete the same call. In
          addition, under equivalent interconnection arrangements, ITC/\DeltaCom
          local service customers will experience at least the same quality as
          BellSouth local service customers regarding post-dial delay, call
          completion rate and transmission quality.

6.0       INTERCONNECTION COMPENSATION

6.1       COMPENSATION FOR LOCAL TRAFFIC

          6.1.1   Local Traffic is defined as any telephone call that is
                  originated by an end user of one Party and terminated to an
                  end user of the other Party within a given LATA on that other
                  Party's network, except for those calls that are originated or
                  terminated through switched access arrangements as established
                  by the ruling regulatory body. Additionally, Local Traffic
                  includes any cross boundary

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 3
                                                                         PAGE 19

                  intrastate, interLATA or interstate, interLATA call between
                  specific wire centers established as a local call by the
                  ruling regulatory body. As further clarification, Local
                  Traffic does not include calls that do not transmit
                  information of the user's choosing. In any event, neither
                  Party will pay reciprocal compensation to the other if the
                  "traffic" to which such reciprocal compensation would
                  otherwise apply was artificially generated or manufactured
                  with the knowledge or consent of either Party, in whole or in
                  part, for the primary purpose of creating an obligation on the
                  part of the originating carrier to pay reciprocal compensation
                  for such traffic.

          6.1.2   The Parties shall provide for the mutual and reciprocal
                  recovery of the costs for the elemental functions performed in
                  transporting and terminating local traffic on each other's
                  network. Such functions include Common (Shared) Transport,
                  Tandem Switching and End Office Switching. The Parties agree
                  that charges for transport and termination of calls on its
                  respective networks are as set forth in Attachment 11. Based
                  upon the Commission evaluation of ITC/\DeltaCom's network and
                  in accordance with the order of the Commission in Docket No.
                  P-500, Sub 10, for reciprocal compensation purposes,
                  ITC/\DeltaCom shall be compensated at BellSouth's tandem
                  interconnection rate.

6.2       Dial-up Internet Service Provider (ISP) traffic shall be subject to an
          interim inter-carrier compensation mechanism. The inter-carrier
          compensation rates for dial-up ISP traffic shall mirror those rates
          set forth in Section 6.1.2 above. Such rates shall be subject to
          true-up at such time as the Commission has ruled pursuant to the FCC's
          anticipated order on inter-carrier compensation for ISP traffic.

6.3       If ITC/\DeltaCom utilizes a switch outside the LATA and BellSouth
          chooses to purchase dedicated or common (shared) transport from
          ITC/\DeltaCom for transport and termination of BellSouth originated
          traffic, BellSouth will pay ITC/\DeltaCom no more than the airline
          miles between the V & H coordinates of the Point of Interface within
          the LATA where ITC/\DeltaCom receives the BellSouth-originated traffic
          and the V & H coordinates of the BellSouth Exchange Rate Center Area
          that the ITC/\DeltaCom terminating NPA/NXX is associated in the same
          LATA. For these situations, BellSouth will compensate ITC/\DeltaCom at
          either dedicated or common (shared) transport rates specified in
          Attachment 11.

          The Parties shall jointly provide Tandem-transported Switched Exchange
          Access Services to Interexchange Carriers to enable such Interexchange
          Carriers to originate and terminate traffic from/to ITC/\DeltaCom's
          End Users, and to originate and terminate traffic to/from BellSouth's
          End Users.

8.0       NXX TRANSLATIONS IMPLEMENTATION

          It shall be the responsibility of each Party to program and update its
          switches and network systems pursuant to the local exchange routing
          guide (LERG) and other switched telecommunications industry guidelines
          to recognize and route traffic to the other Party's assigned NXX
          codes. Neither Party shall impose any fees or charges whatsoever on
          the other Party for such activities.

8.1       Testing and inputting of the translations in the BellSouth databases
          of ITC/\DeltaCom's NXXs' should be the same as BellSouth's own.

8.2       Each Party will translate NXXs according to industry guidelines,
          including the terminating LATA in which the NXXs/rate center is
          located.

8.3       The Parties will cooperate and implement industry solutions for number
          conservation, e.g. number pooling.

9.0       MEET-POINT BILLING ARRANGEMENTS

9.1       MEET-POINT BILLING When BellSouth and DeltaCom provide an access
          service connection between an interexchange carrier ("IXC") and each
          other, each party will provide its own access services to the IXC on a
          multi-bill, multi-tariff meet-point basis. Each party will bill its
          own access services rates to the IXC with the exception of the
          interconnection charge. The interconnection charge will be billed by
          the party providing the end office function. The Parties will use the
          Multiple Exchange Carrier Access Billing guidelines to establish meet
          point billing for all applicable traffic, including traffic
          terminating to ported numbers. 30-day billing periods will be employed
          for these arrangements. The recording party agrees to provide to the
          initial billing company, at no charge, the switched access detailed
          usage data within no more than sixty (60) days after the recording
          date. The initial billing company will provide the switched access
          summary usage data to all subsequent billing companies within 10 days
          of rendering the initial bill to the IXC. Each company will notify the
          other when it is not feasible to meet these requirements so that the
          customers may be notified for any necessary revenue accrual associated
          with the significantly

          delayed recording or billing. As business requirements change data
          reporting requirements may be modified as necessary.

9.2       In the event that either Party fails to provide switched access
          detailed usage data to the other Party within 90 days after the
          recording date and the receiving Party is unable to bill and/or
          collect access revenues due to the sending Party's failure to provide
          such data within said time period, then the Party failing to send the
          data as specified herein shall be liable to the other Party in an
          amount equal to the unbillable or uncollectible revenues. Each Party
          will provide complete documentation to the other to substantiate any
          claim of unbillable access revenues. A negotiated settlement will be
          agreed upon between the Parties.

9.3       Each company will retain for a minimum period of sixty (60) days,
          access message detail sufficient to recreate any data which is lost or
          damaged by their company or any third party involved in processing or
          transporting data.

9.4       Each company agrees to recreate the lost or damaged data within five
          (5) days of notification by the other or by an authorized third party
          handling the data.

9.5       Each company also agrees to process the recreated data within five (5)
          days of receipt at its data processing center.

9.6       All claims should be filed with the other company with 120 days of the
          receipt of the date of the unbillable usage.

9.7       The Initial Billing Company shall keep records of its billing
          activities relating to jointly-provided Intrastate and Interstate
          access services in sufficient detail to permit the Subsequent Billing
          Company to, by formal or informal review or audit, to verify the
          accuracy and reasonableness of the jointly-provided access billing
          data provided by the Initial billing Company. Each company agrees to
          cooperate in such formal or informal reviews or audits and further
          agrees to jointly review the findings of such reviews or audits in
          order to resolve any differences concerning the findings thereof.

9.8       The billing percentages shall be calculated by the Parties according
          to one of the methodologies specified for such purposes in the MECAB
          document and filed by the Parties, if applicable, in the National
          Exchange Carrier Association ("NECA") FCC Tariff No. 4.

9.9       Switched Access Traffic shall be defined in accordance with either
          Party's Commision approved Access Tariffs.

          10.1    Transit Traffic Service is defined as the tandem switching,
                  transport and delivery by one Party of (1) Local Traffic,
                  IntraLATA Toll Traffic and InterLATA Toll Traffic originated
                  from the other Party and terminating to a third party carrier,
                  and (2) Local Traffic, IntraLATA Toll Traffic and InterLATA
                  Toll Traffic originated from a third party carrier and
                  terminating to the other Party. The Parties shall provide
                  Transit Traffic Service to ITC/\DeltaCom in accordance with
                  this Section 10. Rates for Transit Traffic Service for Local
                  Traffic shall be the applicable call transport and termination
                  charges for Local Traffic, as set forth in Attachment 11 to
                  this Agreement. Rates for Transit Traffic Service for
                  IntraLATA Toll Traffic and InterLATA Toll Traffic (i.e.,
                  Switched Access Traffic) shall be the applicable call
                  transport and termination charges as set forth in the
                  providing Party's Intrastate or Interstate switched access
                  tariff, as filed and effective with the FCC or appropriate
                  State Commission. Billing associated with all Transit Traffic
                  Service shall be pursuant to MECAB procedures. Wireless Type 1
                  traffic shall not be treated as transit traffic from a routing
                  or billing perspective. Wireless Type 2A traffic from a third
                  Party carrier to ITC/\DeltaCom shall not be treated as transit
                  traffic from a routing or billing perspective until the
                  transiting Party and the wireless carrier have the capability
                  to meet point bill properly in accordance with MECAB
                  guidelines. Where ITC/\DeltaCom has a direct connection (via a
                  cross connect between collocation spaces in a BellSouth
                  central office or otherwise) to a third party carrier,
                  ITC/\DeltaCom and that third party carrier shall not utilize
                  Transit Traffic Service from BellSouth.

          10.2    The delivery of traffic originated by ITC/\DeltaCom which
                  transits the BellSouth network and is transported to another
                  carrier's network is excluded from any BellSouth billing
                  guarantees and will be delivered at the rates as set forth in
                  Attachment 11 to this Agreement. ITC/\DeltaCom is responsible
                  for establishing any necessary agreements or the placement of
                  any necessary valid orders with the terminating carrier for
                  the receipt of this traffic through the BellSouth network.
                  BellSouth will not be liable for any compensation to the
                  terminating carrier as a result of providing Transit Traffic
                  Service.

          10.3    The Parties shall compensate each other for Transit Traffic
                  Service as follows:

          10.3.1  For Local Traffic and IntraLATA Toll Traffic originating from
                  ITC/\DeltaCom that is delivered over the Transit Traffic
                  Service, ITC/\DeltaCom will pay to BellSouth the applicable
                  Tandem Switching and/or Interoffice Transport charges set
                  forth in Attachment 11 to the Agreement. Charges for services
                  provided by the Parties to a third party carrier(s) shall be
                  assessed on a meet point basis, consistent with the terms of
                  Section 9 hereof.

          10.3.2  Except as provided in Section 10.3.3 hereafter, transit
                  charges shall be assessed upon the originating carrier, and
                  shall not be imposed on the terminating carrier.

          10.3.3  Transit charges associated with the provision of toll-free
                  services (e.g. 800/888/877) shall be imposed upon the
                  terminating carrier and shall not be assessed on the
                  originating carrier.

11.0 PACKET SWITCHED NETWORK INTERCONNECTION/FRAME RELAY The Parties agree to
interconnect their local data services networks for the exchange of Frame Relay
Services ("FRS") traffic.

11.1 The following provisions will apply only to Frame Relay Service and
Exchange Access Frame Relay Service in those states where traffic is being
exchanged between ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth Frame Relay Switches in the same
LATA.

          11.1.1 The Parties agree to establish two-way Frame Relay facilities
          between their respective Frame Relay Switches to the mutually-agreed
          upon Frame Relay Service point(s) of interconnection ("POIs") within
          the LATA. All POIs shall be within the same Frame Relay Network
          Serving Area as defined in Section A40 of BellSouth's General
          Subscriber Services Tariff.

          11.1.2 Upon the request of either Party, such interconnection will be
          established where BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom have Frame Relay
          Switches in the same LATA. Where there are multiple Frame Relay
          switches in the central office of a Party, an interconnection with any
          one of the switches will be considered an interconnection with all of
          the switches at that central office for purposes of routing packet
          traffic.

          11.1.3 The Parties agree to provision local and IntraLATA Frame Relay
          Service and Exchange Access Frame Relay Service (both intrastate and
          interstate) over Frame Relay Trunks between the respective Frame Relay
          switches and the POIs.

          11.1.4 The Parties agree to assess each other reciprocal charges for
          the facilities that each provides to the other according to the
          Percent Local Circuit Use ("PLCU") factor PLCU, determined as follows:

                  (i) Frame Relay framed packet data is transported within
                  Virtual Circuits ("VC"). For the purposes of calculating the
                  PLCU, if all the data packets transported within a VC remain
                  within the LATA, then consistent with the local definitions in
                  this Agreement, the traffic on that VC is local ("Local VC").

                  (ii) If the originating and terminating locations of the two
                  way packet data traffic are not in the same LATA, the traffic
                  on that VC is interLATA.

                  (iii) The PLCU shall be determined by dividing the total
                  number of Local VCs, by the total number of VCs on each Frame
                  Relay facility at the end of the reporting period. The Parties
                  agree to renegotiate the

                                                                         PAGE 24

                  method for determining PLCU, at either Parties' request, and
                  within 90 days, if either Party notifies the other that it has
                  found that this method does not adequately represent the PLCU.
                  (iv) If there are no VCs on a facility when it is billed, the
                  PLCU will be zero.

          11.1.5 BellSouth will provide the Frame Relay Trunk(s) between the
          Parties' respective Frame Relay Switches. The Parties will be
          compensated as follows- BellSouth will invoice, and ITC/\DeltaCom will
          pay, the total non-recurring and recurring charges for the trunk
          facility. ITC/\DeltaCom will then invoice, and BellSouth will pay, an
          amount calculated by multiplying the BellSouth billed charges for the
          trunk facility by one-half of ITC/\DeltaCom's PLCU.

          11.1.6 Each Party will provide a Frame Relay network-to-network
          interface ("NNI") port to the other Party for each trunk facility
          provided pursuant to 11.1.5 above. Compensation for NNI ports shall be
          based upon the NNI rates set forth in the BellSouth F.C.C Tariff No.
          1. Pursuant to that tariff, ITC/\DeltaCom may select a month-to-month
          or term rate structure for the NNI ports BellSouth provides to
          ITC/\DeltaCom. Whatever rate structure ITC/\DeltaCom selects shall be
          deemed to be the same rate structure that applies to the NNI port
          ITC/\DeltaCom provides to BellSouth. There shall be no termination
          liability to either party for the local portion of the NNI port as
          determined by the ITC/\DeltaCom PLCU at the time of termination.

          11.1.7 Compensation for the NNI ports shall be calculated as follows:

                  11.1.7.1 For NNI ports provided by BellSouth to ITC/\DeltaCom,
                  BellSouth will invoice, and ITC/\DeltaCom will pay, the total
                  nonrecurring and recurring charges for the NNI port.
                  ITC/\DeltaCom will then invoice, and BellSouth will pay, an
                  amount calculated by multiplying the BellSouth billed
                  non-recurring and recurring charges for the NNI port by
                  one-half of ITC/\DeltaCom's PLCU.

                  11.1.7.2 For NNI ports provided by ITC/\DeltaCom to BellSouth,
                  ITC/\DeltaCom will invoice, and BellSouth will pay, the total
                  non-recurring and recurring charges for the NNI port.
                  BellSouth will then invoice, and ITC/\DeltaCom will pay, an
                  amount determined as follows: ITC/\DeltaCom's combined
                  interLATA and local usage will be calculated by subtracting
                  one-half of ITC/\DeltaCom's PLCU factor from one hundred
                  percent. The difference will then be multiplied by the total
                  charges initially billed by ITC/\DeltaCom for the NNI port.
                  BellSouth will then invoice, and ITC/\DeltaCom will pay, this
                  amount to BellSouth.

                  11.1.8 A Permanent Virtual Circuit ("PVC") is a logical
                  channel from a frame relay network interface (e.g., NNI or
                  User Network Interface) to another frame relay network
                  interface. A PVC is created when a Data Link Channel
                  Identifier ("DLCI") is mapped together with another DLCI.
                  Neither Party will charge the other Party any DLCI or
                  Committed Information Rate ("CIR") charges for the PVC from
                  its Frame Relay switch to its own subscriber's premises.

                  11.1.9 For the PVC between the ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth
                  Frame Relay switches, compensation for the DLCI and CIR
                  charges are based upon the rates in the BellSouth FCC Tariff
                  No. 1. Compensation for PVC and CIR rate elements shall be
                  calculated as follows:

                  11.1.10 For PVCs between the BellSouth Frame Relay switch and
                  the ITC/\DeltaCom Frame Relay switch, BellSouth will invoice,
                  and ITC/\DeltaCom will pay, the total nonrecurring and
                  recurring DLCI and CIR charges. If the VC is a Local VC,
                  ITC/\DeltaCom will invoice and BellSouth will pay, 100% of the
                  DLCI and CIR charges initially billed by BellSouth for that
                  PVC. If the VC is not local, no compensation will be paid to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom for the PVC.

                  11.1.11 Each Party will compensate the other Party for any
                  applicable Feature Change or Transfer of Service Charges as
                  set forth in BellSouth's Tariff F.C.C. No. 1. The Parties
                  agree to limit the sum of the CIR for the VCs on a given NNI
                  port to not more than two times the port speed.

                  11.1.12 Except as expressly provided herein, this Agreement
                  does not address or alter in any way either Party's provision
                  of Exchange Access Frame Relay Service or interLATA Frame
                  Relay Service. All charges by each Party to the other for
                  carriage of Exchange Access Frame Relay Service or interLATA
                  Frame Relay Service are included in the BellSouth access
                  tariffs.

                  11.1.13 Until such time as BellSouth obtains authority to
                  provide in-region, interLATA service, ITC/\DeltaCom will
                  identify and report its PLCU to BellSouth on a quarterly
                  basis.

                  11.1.14 Either Party may request a review or audit of the
                  various service components, including but not limited to a
                  Party's determination of its PLCU, consistent with the
                  provisions of section E2 of the BellSouth State Access
                  Services tariffs or Section 2 of the BellSouth FCC No. 1
                  Tariff.

                  11.1.15 If during the term of this Agreement, BellSouth
                  obtains authority to provide in-region, interLATA service, the
                  Parties shall renegotiate the provisions of Section 11.1.5,
                  11.1.7, 11.1.8-11.1.10, and 11.1.13 to account for BellSouth's
                  PLCU. In the event the parties are unable to reach agreement

1. SCOPE OF ATTACHMENT

         1.1 SCOPE OF ATTACHMENT. The rates, terms, and conditions contained
within this Attachment shall only apply when ITC/\DeltaCom is occupying the
collocation space as a sole occupant or as a Host pursuant to Section 4.

         1.2 RIGHT TO OCCUPY. Subject to Section 4 of this Attachment, BellSouth
hereby grants ITC/\DeltaCom a right to occupy that certain area designated by
BellSouth within a BellSouth Central Office premises of a size which is
specified by ITC/\DeltaCom and agreed to by BellSouth (hereinafter "Collocation
Space"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, BellSouth shall consider in its
designation for cageless collocation any unused space within the BellSouth
central office premises. The size specified by ITC/\DeltaCom may contemplate a
request for space sufficient to accommodate ITC/\DeltaCom's growth within a two
year period unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties.

             1.2.1 SPACE RECLAMATION. In the event of space exhaust within a
central office premises, and applicable only to those physical collocation
arrangements applied for subsequent to the execution of this Agreement,
ITC/\DeltaCom may be required to release space to BellSouth to be allocated to
other physical collocation applicants when a minimum of 50% percent of the total
amount of space in ITC/\DeltaCom's collocation arrangement is not being
reasonably utilized within the first year of operation, or 100% of the total
amount of space by the end of the second year of operation. release space to
BellSouth to be allocated to other physical collocation applicants when a
minimum of fifty percent of the total amount of space in ITC/\DeltaCom's

shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom with information regarding BellSouth's capacity to
accommodate dual entrance facilities. If conduit in the serving manhole(s) is
available and is not reserved for another purpose for utilization within 12
months of the receipt of an application for collocation, BellSouth will make the
requested conduit space available for installing a second entrance facility to
ITC/\DeltaCom's arrangement. The location of the serving manhole(s) will be
determined at the sole discretion of BellSouth. Where dual entrance is not
available due to lack of capacity, BellSouth will so state in the Application
Response.

             5.2.2 SHARED USE. ITC/\DeltaCom may utilize spare capacity on an
existing Interconnector entrance facility for the purpose of providing an
entrance facility to another ITC/\DeltaCom collocation arrangement within the
same BellSouth Central Office. ITC/\DeltaCom must arrange with BellSouth for
BellSouth to splice the utilized entrance facility capacity to
ITC/\DeltaCom-provided riser cable.

         5.3 SPLICING IN THE ENTRANCE MANHOLE. Although not generally permitted,
should ITC/\DeltaCom request a splice to occur in the entrance manhole(s),
BellSouth, at its sole discretion, may grant such a request, provided that
BellSouth will not unreasonably withhold approval of requests to make such a
splice. When the request for a splice is granted to ITC/\DeltaCom by BellSouth,
ITC/\DeltaCom shall ensure its employees or agents entering and/or performing
work in the entrance manhole(s) are trained and comply with BellSouth procedures
and OSHA requirements regarding access to manholes and that BellSouth personnel
are notified and present for all entrances and work performed in the entrance
manhole(s). Manhole covers shall be properly closed and secured at the

services, unbundled network elements, and facilities, ITC/\DeltaCom may directly
connect to other Interconnectors within the designated BellSouth Central Office
(including to its other virtual or physical collocated arrangements) through
facilities owned by ITC/\DeltaCom or through BellSouth facilities designated by
ITC/\DeltaCom, at ITC/\DeltaCom's option. Such connections to other carriers may
be made using either optical or electrical facilities. ITC/\DeltaCom may deploy
such optical or electrical connections directly between its own facilities and
the facilities of other Interconnectors without being routed through BellSouth
equipment.

             5.6.1 If ITC/\DeltaCom requests a co-Carrier cross-connect after
the initial installation i.e., ITC/\DeltaCom must submit an application with a
Subsequent Application Fee.ITC/\DeltaCom must use a Certified Vendor to place
the co-Carrier cross connect, except in cases where the ITC/\DeltaCom equipment
and the equipment of the other Interconnectors are located within the same
collocation area or are within contiguous collocation spaces. In cases where
ITC/\DeltaCom's equipment and the equipment of the other ITC/\DeltaCom are
located in the same collocation area or are in contiguous collocation spaces,
ITC/\DeltaCom will have the option to deploy the co-Carrier cross connects
between the sets of equipment. Where cable support structure exists for such
connection there will be a recurring charge per linear foot of support structure
used. When cable support structures do not exist and must be constructed a non-
recurring charge for the individual case will be assessed.

         5.7 EASEMENT SPACE. From time to time BellSouth may require access to
the Collocation Space. BellSouth retains the right to access such space for the
purpose of making BellSouth equipment and building modifications (e.g., running,

         6.2 APPLICATION RESPONSE. In addition to the notice of space
availability pursuant to Section 2.1, BellSouth will respond within ten (10)
business days of receipt of an Application whether the Application is Bona Fide,
and if it is not Bona Fide, the items necessary to cause the Application to
become Bona Fide. When space has been determined to be available, BellSouth will
provide a comprehensive written response within thirty (30) calendar days of
receipt of a complete application. When multiple applications are submitted
within a fifteen calendar day window within the same state, BellSouth will
respond to the applications as soon as possible, but no later than the
following: within thirty (30) calendar days for applications 1-5; within
thirty-six (36) calendar days for applications 6-10; within forty-two (42)
calendar days for applications 11-15. Response intervals for multiple
applications submitted by ITC/\DeltaCom within the same timeframe for the same
state in excess of 15 must be negotiated. All negotiations shall consider the
total volume from all requests from telecommunications companies for
collocation. The Application Response will detail whether the amount of space
requested is available or if the amount of space requested is not available, the
amount of space that is available. The response will also include the
configuration of the space. When BellSouth's response includes an amount of
space less than that requested by ITC/\DeltaCom or differently configured,
ITC/\DeltaCom must amend its application to reflect the actual space available
prior to submitting a Bona Fide Firm Order.

         6.3 BONA FIDE FIRM ORDER. ITC/\DeltaCom shall indicate its intent to
proceed with equipment installation in a BellSouth Central Office by submitting
a Bona Fide Firm Order to BellSouth. A Bona Fide Firm Order requires
ITC/\DeltaCom to complete the Application/Inquiry process described in
Subsection 6.1, preceding, and submit the Expanded Interconnection Bona Fide
Firm Order document (BSTEI-1P-F) indicating acceptance of the written
application response provided by BellSouth ("Bona Fide Firm Order") and all
appropriate fees. The Bona Fide Firm Order must be received by BellSouth no
later than thirty (30) calendar days after BellSouth's response to
ITC/\DeltaCom's Application/Inquiry. If ITC/\DeltaCom makes major changes to its
application in light of BellSouth's written Application Response, BellSouth will
be required to re-evaluate and respond to the change(s). In this event,
BellSouth's provisioning interval will not start until the re-evaluation and
response to the change(s) is complete and the Bona Fide Firm Order is received
by BellSouth and all appropriate fees and duties have been executed. If
BellSouth needs to reevaluate ITC/\DeltaCom's application as a result of changes
requested by ITC/\DeltaCom to ITC/\DeltaCom's original application, then
BellSouth will charge ITC/\DeltaCom a fee based upon the additional engineering
hours required to do the reassessment. Major changes such as requesting
additional space or adding additional equipment may require ITC/\DeltaCom to
resubmit the application with an application fee.

             6.3.1 BellSouth will establish a firm order date, per request,
based upon the date BellSouth is in receipt of a Bona Fide Firm Order. BellSouth
will acknowledge the receipt of ITC/\DeltaCom's Bona Fide Firm Order within five
(5) business days of receipt indicating that the Bona Fide Firm Order has been

         6.7 BASIC TELEPHONE SERVICE. Upon request of ITC/\DeltaCom, BellSouth
will provide basic telephone service to the Collocation Space under the rates,
terms and conditions of the current tariff offering for the service requested.

         6.8 SPACE PREPARATION FEE IN NORTH CAROLINA. In North Carolina, the
Space Preparation Fee is a monthly recurring charge, assessed per arrangement,
per location, which is due beginning with the date on which BellSouth releases
the Collocation Space for occupancy or on the date ITC/\DeltaCom first occupies
the Collocation Space, which include survey, engineering, design and
modification costs for network, building and support systems. In the event
ITC/\DeltaCom opts for cageless space, the space preparation charge will be
assessed based on the total floor space dedicated to ITC/\DeltaCom as described
in Section 7.4. The Space Preparation Fee always consists of charges for Central
Office Modifications, Power, and Common Systems Modifications. The charge for
Common Systems Modification will be on a per square foot basis for cageless and
on a per cage basis for caged collocation. The charge for Power will be assessed
per the nominal -48V DC ampere requirements specified by ITC/\DeltaCom on the
Bona Fide Application.

         6.9 VIRTUAL COLLOCATION TRANSITION. BellSouth offers Virtual
Collocation pursuant to the rates, terms and conditions set forth in its F.C.C.
Tariff No. 1. For the interconnection to BellSouth's network and access to
BellSouth unbundled network elements, ITC/\DeltaCom may purchase 2-wire and
4-wire Cross-Connects as set forth in Exhibit A, and ITC/\DeltaCom may place
within its Virtual Collocation arrangements the telecommunications equipment set
forth in Section 5.1. In the event physical collocation space was previously
denied at a location due to technical reasons or space limitations, and that
physical collocation space has subsequently become available, ITC/\DeltaCom may
transition its virtual collocation arrangements to physical collocation
arrangements and pay the appropriate non-recurring fees for physical collocation
and for the rearrangement or reconfiguration of services terminated in the
virtual collocation arrangement. In the event that BellSouth knows when
additional space for physical collocation may become available at the location
requested by ITC/\DeltaCom, such information will be provided to ITC/\DeltaCom
in BellSouth's written denial of physical collocation. To the extent that (i)
physical collocation space becomes available to ITC/\DeltaCom within 180 days of
BellSouth's written denial of ITC/\DeltaCom's request for physical collocation,
and (ii) ITC/\DeltaCom was not informed in the written denial that physical
collocation space would become available within such 180 days, then
ITC/\DeltaCom may transition its virtual collocation arrangement to a physical
collocation arrangement and will receive a credit for any nonrecurring charges
previously paid for such virtual collocation credit for any ITC/\DeltaCom must
arrange
<PAGE>

with a BellSouth certified vendor for the relocation of equipment from its
virtual collocation space to its physical collocation space and will bear the
cost of such relocation.

         6.10 CANCELLATION. If, at anytime, ITC/\DeltaCom cancels its order for
the Collocation Space(s), ITC/\DeltaCom will reimburse BellSouth for any
expenses incurred up to the date that written notice of the cancellation is
received. In no event will the level of reimbursement under this paragraph
exceed the maximum amount ITC/\DeltaCom would have otherwise paid for work
undertaken by BellSouth if no cancellation of the order had occurred.

         6.11 LICENSES. ITC/\DeltaCom, at its own expense, will be solely
responsible for obtaining from governmental authorities, and any other
appropriate agency, entity, or person, all rights, privileges, and licenses
necessary or required to operate as a provider of telecommunications services to
the public or to occupy the Collocation Space.

7. RATES AND CHARGES

         7.1 NON-RECURRING FEES. In addition to the Application Fee referenced
in Section 6, preceding, ITC/\DeltaCom shall remit payment of a Cable
Installation Fee and one-half (1/2) of the estimated Space Preparation Fee, as
applicable, coincident with submission of a Bona Fide Firm Order. The
outstanding balance of the actual Space Preparation Fee shall be due thirty (30)
calendar days following ITC/\DeltaCom's receipt of a bill or invoice from
BellSouth. Once the installation of the initial equipment arrangement is
complete, a subsequent application fee may apply (as described in Subsection
7.4), when ITC/\DeltaCom requests a modification to the arrangement.

         7.2 DOCUMENTATION. BellSouth shall provide documentation to establish
the actual Space Preparation Fee. The Space Preparation Fee will be pro rated as
prescribed in Section 6, preceding.

         7.3 CABLE INSTALLATION. Cable Installation Fee(s) are assessed per
entrance fiber placed.

         7.4 FLOOR SPACE. The floor space charge includes reasonable charges for
lighting, heat, air conditioning, ventilation and other allocated expenses
associated with maintenance of the Central Office but does not include amperage
necessary to power ITC/\DeltaCom's equipment. When the Collocation Space is
enclosed , ITC/\DeltaCom shall pay floor space charges based upon the number of
square feet so enclosed. When the Collocation Space is not enclosed,
ITC/\DeltaCom shall pay floor space charges based upon the following floor space
calculation: [(depth of the equipment lineup in which the rack is placed) + (0.5
x maintenance aisle depth) + (0.5 x wiring aisle depth)] X (width of rack and
spacers). For purposes of this calculation, the depth of the equipment lineup
shall consider the footprint of equipment racks plus any equipment overhang.
BellSouth will assign unenclosed Collocation Space in conventional equipment
rack lineups where feasible. In the event ITC/\DeltaCom's collocated equipment
requires special cable racking, isolated grounding or other treatment which
prevents placement within conventional equipment rack lineups, ITC/\DeltaCom
shall be required to request an amount of floor space sufficient to accommodate
the total equipment arrangement. Floor space charges are due beginning with the
date on which BellSouth releases the Collocation Space for occupancy or on the
date ITC/\DeltaCom first occupies the Collocation Space, whichever is sooner.
<PAGE>

         7.5 POWER. BellSouth shall supply -48 Volt (-48V) DC power for
ITC/\DeltaCom's Collocation Space within the central office premises and shall
make available AC power at ITC/\DeltaCom's option for Adjacent Arrangement
collocation.

             7.5.1 Charges for -48V DC power will be assessed per ampere per
month based upon the certified vendor engineered and installed power feed fused
ampere capacity. Rates include redundant feeder fuse positions (A&B) and cable
rack to ITC/\DeltaCom's equipment or space enclosure. When obtaining power from
a BellSouth Battery Distribution Fuse Bay, fuses and power cables (A&B) must be
engineered (sized), furnished and installed by ITC/\DeltaCom's certified vendor.
When obtaining power from a BellSouth Power Board, power cables (A&B) must be
engineered (sized), furnished and installed by ITC/\DeltaCom's certified power
vendor. ITC/\DeltaCom's certified vendor must also provide a copy of the
engineering power specification prior to the Commencement Date. In the event
BellSouth shall be required to construct additional DC power plant or upgrade
the existing DC power plant in a Central Office as a result of ITC/\DeltaCom's
request to collocate in that Central Office ("Power Plant Construction"),
ITC/\DeltaCom shall pay its pro-rata share of costs associated with the Power
Plant Construction. The determination of whether Power Plant Construction is
necessary shall be within BellSouth's sole, but reasonable, discretion.
BellSouth shall comply with all BellCore (Telcordia) and ANSI Standards
regarding power cabling, including BellCore (Telcordia) Network Equipment
Building System (NEBS) StandardGR-63-CORE. BellSouth will notify ITC/\DeltaCom
of the need for the Power Plant Construction and will estimate the costs
associated with the Power Plant Construction if BellSouth were to perform the
Power Plant Construction. The costs of power plant construction shall be pro-
rated and shared among all who benefit from that construction. ITC/\DeltaCom
shall pay BellSouth one-half of its prorata share of the estimated Power Plant
Construction costs prior to commencement of the work. ITC/\DeltaCom shall pay
BellSouth the balance due (actual cost less one-half of the estimated cost)
within thirty (30) days of completion of the Power Plant Construction.
ITC/\DeltaCom has the option to perform the Power Plant Construction itself;
provided, however, that such work shall be performed by a BellSouth certified
contractor and such contractor shall comply with BellSouth's guidelines and
specifications. Where the Power Plant Construction results in construction of a
new power plant room, upon termination of this Agreement ITC/\DeltaCom shall
have the right to remove its equipment from the power plant room, but shall
otherwise leave the room intact. Where the Power Plant Construction results in
an upgrade to BellSouth's existing power plant, upon termination of
thisAttachment, such upgrades shall become the property of BellSouth.

             7.5.2 Charges for AC power will be assessed per breaker ampere per
month based upon the certified vendor engineered and installed power feed fused
ampere capacity. Rates include the provision of commercial and standby AC power.
When obtaining power from a BellSouth Distribution Fuse Bay, Power Board or
Service Panel, fuses and power cables must be engineered (sized), furnished and
installed by ITC/\DeltaCom's certified vendor. ITC/\DeltaCom's certified vendor
must also provide a copy of the engineering power specification prior to the
Commencement Date. Charges for AC power shall be assessed pursuant to the rates
specified in Exhibit A. AC power voltage and phase ratings shall be determined
on a per location basis.

         7.6 SECURITY ESCORT. A security escort will be required as set forth in
Section 5.8. ITC/\DeltaComRates for a security escort are assessed in one-half
(1/2) hour increments according to the schedule appended hereto as Exhibit A.
<PAGE>

         7.7 RATE "TRUE-UP." The Parties agree that the prices reflected as
interim herein shall be "trued-up" (up or down) based on final prices either
determined by further agreement or by final order, including any appeals, in a
proceeding involving BellSouth before the regulatory authority for the state in
which the services are being performed or any other body having jurisdiction
over this agreement (hereinafter "Commission"). Under the "true-up" process, the
interim price for each service shall be multiplied by the volume of that service
purchased to arrive at the total interim amount paid for that service ("Total
Interim Price"). The final price for that service shall be multiplied by the
volume purchased to arrive at the total final amount due ("Total Final Price").
The Total Interim Price shall be compared with the Total Final Price. If the
Total Final Price is more than the Total Interim Price, ITC/\DeltaCom shall pay
the difference to BellSouth. If the Total Final Price is less than the Total
Interim Price, BellSouth shall pay the difference to ITC/\DeltaCom. Each party
shall keep its own records upon which a "true-up" can be based and any final
payment from one party to the other shall be in an amount agreed upon by the
Parties based on such records. In the event of any disagreement as between the
records or the Parties regarding the amount of such "true-up," the Parties agree
that the Commission shall be called upon to resolve such differences.

         7.8 OTHER. If no rate is identified in the contract, the rate for the
specific service or function will be negotiated by the parties upon request by
either party. Payment of all other charges under this Agreement shall be due
thirty (30) days after receipt of the bill (payment due date). ITC/\DeltaCom
will pay a late payment charge of one and one-half percent (1-1/2%) assessed
monthly on any balance which remains unpaid after the payment due date.

reasonable costs associated with investigations involving its employees, agents,
or contractors if it is established and mutually agreed in good faith that
ITC/\DeltaCom's employees, agents, or contractors are responsible for the
alleged act. BellSouth shall bill ITC/\DeltaCom for BellSouth property which is
stolen or damaged where an investigation determines the culpability of
ITC/\DeltaCom employees, agents, or contractors and ITC/\DeltaCom agrees, in
good faith, with the results of such investigation. ITC/\DeltaCom shall notify
BellSouth in writing immediately in the event that ITC/\DeltaCom discovers one
of its employees already working on the BellSouth central office premises is a
possible security risk. BellSouth reserves the right to permanently but lawfully
remove from its premises any employee of ITC/\DeltaCom identified as posing a
security risk to BellSouth or any other CLEC, or having violated BellSouth
policies set forth in the BellSouth CLEC Security Training. ITC/\DeltaCom shall
hold BellSouth harmless for any damages resulting from such removal of its
personnel from BellSouth premises.

         11.3 USE OF BELLSOUTH SUPPLIES BY ITC/\DELTACOM EMPLOYEES. Use of any
BellSouth supplies by a ITC/\DeltaCom employee, whether or not used routinely to
provide telephone service (e.g. plug-in cards,) will be considered theft and
will be handled accordingly. Costs associated with such unauthorized use of
BellSouth property may be charged to ITC/\DeltaCom as may be all associated
investigative costs. At BellSouth's request, ITC/\DeltaCom shall promptly and
permanently remove from BellSouth's Central Office any employee of ITC/\DeltaCom
found to be in violation of this rule.

         11.4 USE OF OFFICIAL LINES BY ITC/\DELTACOM EMPLOYEES. Except for local
calls necessary in the performance of their work, ITC/\DeltaCom employees shall
not use the telephones on BellSouth Central Office. Charges for unauthorized
telephone calls made by a
<PAGE>

ITC/\DeltaCom's employees may be charged to ITC/\DeltaCom as may be all
associated investigative costs. At BellSouth's request, ITC/\DeltaCom shall
promptly and permanently remove from BellSouth's premises any employee of
ITC/\DeltaCom found to be in violation of this rule.

         11.5 ACCOUNTABILITY. Full compliance with the Security requirements of
this section shall in no way limit the accountability of any CLEC for the
improper actions of its employees.

12. DESTRUCTION OF COLLOCATION SPACE.

         12.1 In the event a Collocation Space is wholly or partially damaged by
fire, windstorm, tornado, flood or by similar causes to such an extent as to be
rendered wholly unsuitable for ITC/\DeltaCom's permitted use hereunder, then
either party may elect within ten (10) days after such damage, to terminate this
Attachment, and if either party shall so elect, by giving the other written
notice of termination, both parties shall stand released of and from further
liability under the terms hereof. If the Collocation Space shall suffer only
minor damage and shall not be rendered wholly unsuitable for ITC/\DeltaCom's
permitted use, or is damaged and the option to terminate is not exercised by
either party, BellSouth covenants and agrees to proceed promptly without expense
to ITC/\DeltaCom, except for improvements not the property of BellSouth, to
repair the damage. BellSouth shall have a reasonable time within which to
rebuild or make any repairs, and such rebuilding and repairing shall be subject
to delays caused by storms, shortages of labor and materials, government
regulations, strikes, walkouts, and causes beyond the control of BellSouth,
which causes shall not be construed as limiting factors, but as exemplary only.
ITC/\DeltaCom may, at its own expense, accelerate the rebuild of its collocated
space and equipment provided however that a certified vendor is used and the
necessary space preparation has been completed. Rebuild of equipment must be
performed by a BellSouth Certified Vendor. If ITC/\DeltaCom's acceleration of
the project increases the cost of the project, then those additional charges
will be incurred by ITC/\DeltaCom. Where allowed and where practical,
ITC/\DeltaCom may erect a temporary facility while BellSouth rebuilds or makes
repairs. In all cases where the Collocation Space shall be rebuilt or repaired,
ITC/\DeltaCom shall be entitled to an equitable abatement of rent and other
charges, depending upon the unsuitability of the Collocation Space for
ITC/\DeltaCom's permitted use, until such Collocation Space is fully repaired
and restored and ITC/\DeltaCom's equipment installed therein (but in no event
later than thirty (30) days after the Collocation Space is fully repaired and
restored). Where ITC/\DeltaCom has placed an Adjacent Arrangement pursuant to
section 3.4, ITC/\DeltaCom shall have the sole responsibility to repair or
replace said Adjacent Arrangement provided herein. Pursuant to this section,
BellSouth will restore the associated services to the Adjacent Arrangement.

13. EMINENT DOMAIN

         13.1 If the whole of a Collocation Space shall be taken by any public
authority under the power of eminent domain, then this Attachment shall
terminate as of the day possession shall be taken by such public authority and
rent and other charges for the Collocation Space shall be paid up to that day
with proportionate refund by BellSouth of such rent and charges as may have been
paid in advance for a period subsequent to the date of the taking. If any part
of the Collocation Space shall be taken under eminent domain, BellSouth and
ITC/\DeltaCom shall
<PAGE>

each have the right to terminate this Attachment and declare the same null and
void, by written notice of such intention to the other party within ten (10)
days after such taking.

14. NONEXCLUSIVITY

         14.1 ITC/\DeltaCom understands that this Agreement is not exclusive and
that BellSouth may enter into similar agreements with other parties. Assignment
of space pursuant to all such agreements shall be determined by space
availability and made on a first come, first served basis.

15. NOTICES

         15.1 Except as otherwise provided herein, any notices or demands that
are required by law or under the terms of this Agreement shall be given or made
by ITC/\DeltaCom or BellSouth in writing and shall be given by hand delivery, or
by certified or registered mail, and addressed to the parties at the addresses
set forth in Section 20 of the General Terms and Conditions of this Agreement.

         15.2 Such notices shall be deemed to have been given in the case of
certified or registered mail when deposited in the United States mail with
postage prepaid.

16. INDEMNITY/LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

         16.1 ITC/\DeltaCom shall be liable for any damage to property,
tequipment or facilities or injury to person caused by the activities of
ITC/\DeltaCom, its agents or employees pursuant to, or in furtherance of, rights
granted under this Agreement. ITC/\DeltaCom shall indemnify and hold BellSouth
harmless from and against any judgments, fees, costs or other expenses resulting
or claimed to result from such activities by ITC/\DeltaCom, its agents or
employees. Likewise, BellSouth shall be liable for any damage to property,
equipment or facilities or injury to person caused by the activities of
BellSouth, its agents or employees pursuant to, or in furtherance of, providing
the Collocation Space(s) under this Agreement. BellSouth shall indemnify and
hold ITC/\DeltaCom harmless from and against any judgments, fees, costs or other
expenses resulting or claimed to result from such activities by BellSouth, its
agents or employees.

                        PHYSICAL COLLOCATION (CONTINUED)

NOTE(S):
 N/A refers to rate elements which do not have a negotiated rate.

(1)  SUBSEQUENT APPLICATION FEE: BellSouth requires the submission of an
     Application Fee for modifications to an existing arrangement. However, when
     the modifications do not require BellSouth to expend capital, BellSouth
     will assess the Subsequent Application Fee in lieu of the Application Fee.
     Proposed modifications that could result in assessment of a Subsequent
     Application Fee would cause BellSouth to analyze the following but are not
     limited to: floor loading changes, changes to HVAC requirements, power
     requirement changes which may result in a power plant upgrade,
     environmental or safety requirements, or equipment relocation. Should the
     Subsequent Application Fee not be included as part of this Attachment,
     ITC/\DeltaCom will be assessed the full Application Fee for all subsequent
     activity for completed arrangements.

(2)  SPACE ENCLOSURE FEE: The Space Enclosure Construction Fee is a monthly
     recurring fee, assessed per enclosure, per location with a one-hundred
     (100) square foot minimum enclosure. It recovers costs associated with
     providing an optional equipment arrangement enclosure, which include
     architectural and engineering fees, materials, and installation costs. The
     cost for additional square feet is applicable only when ordered with the
     first 100 square feet and must be requested in fifty (50) square foot
     increments. ITC/\DeltaCom may, at its option, arrange with a BellSouth
     Certified Contractor to construct the space enclosure in accordance with
     BellSouth's guidelines and specifications. In this event, the BellSouth
     Certified Contractor shall directly bill ITC/\DeltaCom for the space
     enclosure, and this fee shall not be applicable.

(3)  CROSS CONNECT: The charges for cross connects are for orders placed
     electronically. Cross connect elements may also be ordered manually for
     which there is an additional charge per element.

(4)  CO-CARRIER CROSS-CONNECT. As stated in Section 5 of the Collocation
     Attachment, ITC/\DeltaCom may connect to other CLECs within the designated
     Premises in addition to, and not in lieu of, interconnection to BellSouth
     services and facilities. Where BellSouth must construct a cable rack
     structure to house the co-Carrier cross-connection, construction charges
     will be applied on an individual case basis as described in Section 5.6.1
     of the Collocation Attachment. BellSouth shall provide an estimate of these
     charges in the Application Response. Where an existing cable rack structure
     is in place and has sufficient capacity to accommodate the co-Carrier
     cross-connection requested, the recurring charges as stated in this Exhibit
     A shall apply.

                            ENVIRONMENTAL AND SAFETY
                                   PRINCIPLES

The following principles provide basic guidance on environmental and safety
issues when applying for and establishing Physical Collocation arrangements.

1.   GENERAL PRINCIPLES

1.1  COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom agree to comply
     with applicable federal, state, and local environmental and safety laws and
     regulations including U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA)
     regulations issued under the Clean Air Act (CAA), Clean Water Act (CWA),
     Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), Comprehensive Environmental
     Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), Superfund Amendments and
     Reauthorization Act (SARA), the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), and
     OSHA regulations issued under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of
     1970, as amended and NFPA and National Electrical Codes (NEC) and the NESC
     ("Applicable Laws"). Each Party shall notify the other if compliance
     inspections are conducted by regulatory agencies and/or citations are
     issued that relate to any aspect of this Attachment.

1.2  NOTICE. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall provide notice to the other,
     including Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs), of known and recognized
     physical hazards or Hazardous Chemicals existing on site or brought on
     site. Each Party is required to provide specific notice for known potential
     Imminent Danger conditions. ITC/\DeltaCom should contact 1-800-743-6737 for
     BellSouth MSDS sheets.

1.3  PRACTICES/PROCEDURES. BellSouth may make available additional environmental
     control procedures for ITC/\DeltaCom to follow when working at a BellSouth
     Premises (See Section 2, below). These practices/procedures will represent
     the regular work practices required to be followed by the employees and
     contractors of BellSouth for environmental protection. ITC/\DeltaCom will
     require its contractors, agents and others accessing the BellSouth Premises
     to comply with these practices. Section 2 lists the Environmental
     categories where BST practices should be followed by CLEC when operating in
     the BellSouth Premises.

1.4  ENVIRONMENTAL AND SAFETY INSPECTIONS. BellSouth reserves the right to
     inspect the ITC/\DeltaCom space with proper notification. BellSouth
     reserves the right to stop any ITC/\DeltaCom work operation that imposes
     Imminent Danger to the environment, employees or other persons in the area
     or Facility.

1.5  HAZARDOUS MATERIALS BROUGHT ON SITE. Any hazardous materials brought into,
     used, stored or abandoned at the BellSouth Premises by ITC/\DeltaCom are
     owned by ITC/\DeltaCom. ITC/\DeltaCom will indemnify BellSouth for claims,
     lawsuits or damages to persons or property caused by these materials.
     Without prior written
<PAGE>

     BellSouth approval, no substantial new safety or environmental hazards can
     be created by ITC/\DeltaCom or different hazardous materials used by
     ITC/\DeltaCom at BellSouth Facility. ITC/\DeltaCom must demonstrate
     adequate emergency response capabilities for its materials used or
     remaining at the BellSouth Facility.

1.6  SPILLS AND RELEASES. When contamination is discovered at a BellSouth
     Premises, the Party discovering the condition must notify BellSouth. All
     Spills or Releases of regulated materials will immediately be reported by
     ITC/\DeltaCom to BellSouth.

1.7  COORDINATED ENVIRONMENTAL PLANS AND PERMITS. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom
     will coordinate plans, permits or information required to be submitted to
     government agencies, such as emergency response plans, spill prevention
     control and countermeasures (SPCC) plans and community reporting. If fees
     are associated with filing, BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom will develop a cost
     sharing procedure. If BellSouth's permit or EPA identification number must
     be used, ITC/\DeltaCom must comply with all of BellSouth's permit
     conditions and environmental processes, including environmental "best
     management practices (BMP)" (see Section 2, below) and/or selection of BST
     disposition vendors and disposal sites.

1.8  ENVIRONMENTAL AND SAFETY INDEMNIFICATION. BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall
     indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other Party from and against any
     claims (including, without limitation, third-party claims for personal
     injury or death or real or personal property damage), judgments, damages,
     (including direct and indirect damages, and punitive damages), penalties,
     fines, forfeitures, costs, liabilities, interest and losses arising in
     connection with the violation or alleged violation of any Applicable Law or
     contractual obligation or the presence or alleged presence of contamination
     arising out of the acts or omissions of the indemnifying Party, its agents,
     contractors, or employees concerning its operations at the Facility.

2.   CATEGORIES FOR CONSIDERATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES When performing
     functions that fall under the following Environmental categories on
     BellSouth's Premises, ITC/\DeltaCom agrees to comply with the applicable
     sections of the current issue of BellSouth's Environmental and Safety
     Methods and Procedures (M&Ps), incorporated herein by this reference.
     ITC/\DeltaCom further agrees to cooperate with BellSouth to ensure that
     ITC/\DeltaCom's employees, agents, and/or subcontractors are knowledgeable
     of and satisfy those provisions of BellSouth's Environmental M&Ps which
     apply to the specific Environmental function being performed by
     ITC/\DeltaCom, its employees, agents and/or subcontractors.

     The most current version of reference documentation must be requested from
     BellSouth.

         assigned a Central Office Code, the Parties will be required to
         complete the Central Office Code (NXX) Assignment Request and
         Confirmation Form (Code Request Form) in accordance with Industry
         Numbering Committee's Central Office Code (NXX) Assignment Guidelines
         (INC 95-0407-008).

1.2      It shall be the responsibility of each Party to program and update its
         own switches and network systems in accordance with the Local Exchange
         Routing Guide ("LERG") in order to recognize and route traffic to the
         other Party's assigned NXX Codes at all times.

2.0      Local Number Portability

2.1      The Parties shall provide Local Number Portability ("LNP") on a
         reciprocal basis to each other to the extent technically feasible, and
         in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations as prescribed
         from time to time by the FCC and/or the Commission.

2.2      Local Number Portability

2.2.1    Deployment of LNP. LNP allows End Users to keep their existing
         Telephone Line Numbers ("TLNs") when switching LECs. The Parties shall
         implement and deploy the Location Routing Number ("LRN") solution for
         permanent LNP in accordance with orders, rulings and policies regarding
         LNP issued by the North American Numbering Committee ("NANC"), the FCC
         and applicable state commissions, including without limitation, the FCC
         prescribed permanent LNP geographic deployment schedules.

2.2.2    Description of LNP. LNP uses the industry standard LRN that assigns a
         unique 10-digit number to each Wire Center. To support LNP, LRN data is
         stored, and LNP is provisioned on Advanced Intelligent Network ("AIN")
         elements that replace the dialed TLN with the LRN so that LNP calls can
         be routed to the proper Wire Center for connection to the dialed party.
         To obtain the LRN data and properly provision LNP services, carriers
         must be connected to independently
<PAGE>

                                                                    Attachment 5
                                                                          Page 2

         operated Regional Number Portability Administration Centers ("NPACs")
         which will manage LNP services and provide LNP call routing data to
         carriers.

2.2.3    Once LNP is implemented, either Party will withdraw its Interim Number
         Portability ("INP") offerings, subject to (i) provision of reasonable
         advance notice to the other Party; and (ii) coordination to allow the
         seamless and transparent conversion of INP customers to LNP. Once LNP
         is implemented in an end office pursuant to FCC or state Commission
         orders, rules or regulations, with advance written notice, either Party
         must withdraw its INP offerings. The transition from existing INP
         arrangements to LNP shall occur within 120 days from the date LNP is
         implemented in the end office serving the telephone number. Neither
         Party shall charge the other Party for conversion from INP to LNP. The
         Parties shall comply with any INP/LNP transition processes established
         by the FCC and State Commissions and appropriate industry number
         portability work groups.

2.2.4    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge that the FCC has
         determined once LNP has been deployed pursuant to the FCC's orders,
         rules and regulations, that all local exchange carriers (LECs) have the
         duty to provide LNP. Therefore, either Party, at any time, may seek
         appropriate legal or regulatory relief concerning the transition from
         INP to LNP or other related issues.

2.2.5    CHARGES. The Parties agree to compensate each other for providing LNP
         in accordance with pertinent rules, orders and charges adopted or
         approved by the FCC, and effective Tariffs filed in accordance with
         such FCC requirements. Such charges shall be itemized and clearly
         designated as "LNP charges."

2.2.6    The Parties will exchange SS7 TCAP messages as required for the
         implementation of Customer Local Area Signaling Services (CLASS) or
         other features available.

2.3.     INTERIM NUMBER PORTABILITY

         2.3.1    SERVICE PROVIDER NUMBER PORTABILITY

                  2.3.1.1 DEFINITION. Until an industry-wide permanent solution
                  can be achieved, BellSouth shall provide Service Provider
                  Number Portability ("SPNP"). SPNP is an interim service
                  arrangement whereby an end user who switches subscription of
                  his local exchange service from BellSouth to ITC/\DeltaCom, or
                  vice versa, is permitted to retain the use of his existing
                  assigned telephone number, provided that the end user remains
                  at the same location for his local exchange service. or
                  changes locations and service providers but stays within the
                  same serving wire center of his existing number.

                  2.3.1.2 METHODS OF PROVIDING NUMBER PORTABILITY. SPNP is
                  available through either remote call forwarding or direct
                  inward dialing trunks, at the election of ITC/\DeltaCom.
                  Remote call forwarding (SPNP-RCF) is an existing switch-based
<PAGE>

                                                                    Attachment 5
                                                                          Page 3

                  BellSouth service that redirects calls within the telephone
                  network. Direct inward dialing trunks (SPNP-DID) allow calls
                  to be routed over a dedicated facility to the ITC/\DeltaCom
                  switch that serves the subscriber. SS7 Signaling is required
                  for the provision of either of these services.

         2.3.2    SPNP-DID is available from BellSouth on a per DS0, DS1, or DS3
                  basis. Where SPNP-DID is technically feasible and is provided
                  on a DS1 or a DS3 basis, the applicable channelization rates
                  are those specified in Attachment 11 hereto, incorporated
                  herein by this reference. SPNP is available only for basic
                  local exchange service.

2.4      SPNP is available only where ITC/\DeltaCom or BellSouth is currently
         providing, or will begin providing concurrent with provision of SPNP,
         basic local exchange service to the affected end user. SPNP for a
         particular telephone number is available only from the central office
         originally providing local exchange service to the end user. SPNP for a
         particular assigned telephone number will be disconnected when any end
         user, Commission, BellSouth, or ITC/\DeltaCom initiated activity (e.g.,
         a change in exchange boundaries) would normally result in a telephone
         number change had the end user retained his initial local exchange
         service.

         2.4.1    SPNP-RCF, as contemplated by this Agreement, is a
                  telecommunications service whereby a call dialed to an SPNP-
                  RCF equipped telephone number is automatically forwarded to an
                  assigned seven- or ten- digit telephone number within the
                  local calling area as defined in BellSouth's General
                  Subscriber Services Tariff. The forwarded-to number shall be
                  specified by ITC/\DeltaCom or BellSouth, as appropriate. The
                  forwarding company will provide identification of the
                  originating telephone number, via SS7 signaling, to the
                  receiving Party. Identification of the originating telephone
                  number to the SPNP-RCF end user cannot be guaranteed, however.
                  SPNP-RCF provides a single call path for the forwarding of no
                  more than one simultaneous call to the receiving Party's
                  specified forwarded-to number. Additional call paths for the
                  forwarding of multiple simultaneous calls are available on a
                  per path basis at separate rates in addition to the rates for
                  SPNP-RCF.

         2.4.2    SPNP-DID service, as contemplated by this Agreement, provides
                  trunk side access to end office switches for direct inward
                  dialing to the other company's premises equipment from the
                  telecommunications network to lines associated with the other
                  company's switching equipment and must be provided on all
                  trunks in a group arranged for inward service. A SPNP-DID
                  trunk termination charge, provided with SS7 Signaling only,
                  applies for each trunk voice grade equivalent. In addition,
                  direct facilities are required from the end office where a
                  ported number resides to the end office serving the ported end
                  user customer. The rates for a switched local channel and
                  switched dedicated transport apply as contained in Attachment
                  11 hereto. Transport mileage will be calculated as the airline
                  distance between the end office where the number is ported and
                  the Point of Interface ("POI") using the V&H coordinate
                  method. SPNP-DID must be established with a minimum
                  configuration of two channels and one unassigned telephone
                  number per switch, per arrangement for control purposes.
                  Transport facilities arranged
<PAGE>

                                                                    Attachment 5
                                                                          Page 4

                  for SPNP-DID may not be mixed with any other type of trunk
                  group, with no outgoing calls placed over said facilities.
                  SPNP-DID will be provided only where such facilities are
                  available and where the switching equipment of the ordering
                  company is properly equipped. Where SPNP-DID service is
                  required from more than one wire center or from separate trunk
                  groups within the same wire center, such service provided from
                  each wire center or each trunk group within the same wire
                  center shall be considered a separate service. Only customer-
                  dialed sent-paid calls will be completed to the first number
                  of a SPNP-DID number group; however, there are no restrictions
                  on calls completed to other numbers of a SPNP-DID number
                  group. Interface group arrangements provided for terminating
                  the switched transport at the Party's terminal location are as
                  set forth in of BellSouth's Intrastate Access Services
                  Tariff,ss. E6.1.3.A as amended from time to time.

         2.4.3    The calling Party shall be responsible for payment of the
                  applicable charges for sent-paid calls to the SPNP number. For
                  collect, third-Party, or other operator-assisted non-sent paid
                  calls to the ported telephone number, BellSouth or
                  ITC/\DeltaCom shall be responsible for the payment of charges
                  under the same terms and conditions for which the end user
                  would have been liable for those charges. Either company may
                  request that the other block collect and third company non-
                  sent paid calls to the SPNP-assigned telephone number. If a
                  company does not request blocking, the other company will
                  provide itemized local usage data for the billing of non-sent
                  paid calls on the monthly bill of usage charges provided at
                  the individual end user account level. The detail will include
                  itemization of all billable usage. Each company shall have the
                  option of receiving this usage data on a daily basis via a
                  data file transfer arrangement. This arrangement will utilize
                  the existing industry uniform standard, known as EMI
                  standards, for exchange of billing data. Files of usage data
                  will be created daily for the optional service. Usage
                  originated and recorded in the sending BellSouth RAO will be
                  provided in unrated or rated format, depending on processing
                  system. ITC/\DeltaCom usage originated elsewhere and delivered
                  via CMDS to the sending BellSouth RAO shall be provided in
                  rated format.

         2.4.4    Each company shall be responsible for obtaining authorization
                  from the end user for the handling of the disconnection of the
                  end user's service, the provision of new local service and the
                  provision of SPNP services. Each company shall be responsible
                  for coordinating the provision of service with the other to
                  assure that its switch is capable of accepting SPNP ported
                  traffic. Each company shall be responsible for providing
                  equipment and facilities that are compatible with the other's
                  service parameters, interfaces, equipment and facilities and
                  shall be required to provide sufficient terminating facilities
                  and services at the terminating end of an SPNP call to
                  adequately handle all traffic to that location and shall be
                  solely responsible to ensure that its facilities, equipment
                  and services do not interfere with or impair any facility,
                  equipment, or service of the other company or any of its end
                  users. In the event that either company determines in its
                  reasonable judgment that the other company will likely impair
                  or is impairing, or interfering with any equipment, facility
                  or service or any of its end users, that company may either
                  refuse to provide SPNP service or may terminate SPNP service
                  to the other Party after providing appropriate notice.

                                                                          Page 5

         2.4.5    Each company shall be responsible for providing an appropriate
                  intercept announcement service for any telephone numbers
                  subscribed to SPNP services for which it is not presently
                  providing local exchange service or terminating to an end
                  user. Where either company chooses to disconnect or terminate
                  any SPNP service, that company shall be responsible for
                  designating the preferred standard type of announcement to be
                  provided.

         2.4.6   Each company shall be the other company's single point of
                 contact for all repair calls on behalf of each company's end
                 user. Each company reserves the right to contact the other
                 company's customers if deemed necessary for maintenance
                 purposes.

         2.4.7   Neither company shall be responsible for adverse effects on any
                 service, facility or equipment from the use of SPNP services.
                 End-to-end transmission characteristics may vary depending on
                 the distance and routing necessary to complete calls over SPNP
                 facilities and the fact that another carrier is involved in the
                 provisioning of service. Therefore, end-to-end transmission
                 characteristics cannot be specified by either company for such
                 calls. Neither company shall be responsible to the other if any
                 necessary change in protection criteria or in any of the
                 facilities, operation, or procedures of either renders any
                 facilities provided by the other company obsolete or renders
                 necessary modification of the other company's equipment.

         2.4.8   For terminating IXC traffic ported to either Party which
                 requires use of either Party's 's tandem switching, the tandem
                 provider will bill the IXC tandem switching and its portion of
                 the transport, and the other Party will bill the IXC local
                 switching, the carrier common line, the interconnection charge,
                 and its portion of the transport. If the tandem provider is
                 unable to provide the necessary access records to permit the
                 other company to bill the IXC directly for terminating access
                 to ported numbers, then the tandem provider will bill the IXC
                 full terminating switched access charges at the tandem
                 provider's rate, keep the, tandem switching and its portion of
                 transport, and remit the local switching, the interconnection
                 charge, the other Party's portion of transport at the tandem
                 provider's rate, CCL revenues to the other Party. If an
                 intraLATA toll call is delivered, the delivering Party will pay
                 terminating access rates to the other Party. This subsection
                 does not apply in cases where SPNP-DID is utilized for number
                 portability.

         2.4.9   If, through an effective order, the Federal Communications
                 Commission ("FCC") issues regulations pursuant to 47 U.S.C.
                 ss. 251 to require number portability different than that
                 provided pursuant to this section, the Parties will comply
                 with any such order.

         2.4.10  Charges for INP shall be as specified in Attachment 11.

2.5      INP Requirements

         2.5.1    Either Party shall notify the other of any technical or
                  capacity limitations that would prevent use of a requested INP
                  implementation in a particular End Office or Wire Center.

                                                                          Page 6

         2.5.2    Either Party shall pass all Calling Party Number ("CPN") or
                  Automatic Number Identification ("ANI") information to and
                  from the ported number, whenever technically feasible.

         2.5.3    BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall cooperate in resolving all
                  service calls involving the other Party's service, to avoid
                  unnecessary service outages.

2.6      LNP Cutover Procedures.

         2.6.1    BellSouth will ensure that the disconnect order is completed
                  for all ported numbers once the NPAC notification of
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's Activate Subscription Version has been
                  received by BellSouth. If BellSouth receives such notice by
                  12:00 noon, it will complete the disconnect the same business
                  day. If BellSouth receives such notice after 12:00 noon, it
                  will complete the disconnect the next business day.

         2.6.2    For an LNP Coordinated Cutover Environment (where the loop is
                  being purchased by ITC/\DeltaCom as an unbundled Network
                  Element at the time of LNP implementation), BellSouth shall
                  use best efforts to update switch translations, where
                  necessary, within fifteen (15) minutes after receiving the

                            ORDERING AND PROVISIONING

1.       ORDERING AND PROVISIONING

1.1      BellSouth shall provide ordering and provisioning services to
         ITC/\DeltaCom that are equal to the ordering and provisioning services
         BellSouth provides to itself, any affiliates or subsidiaries or any
         other CLEC where technically feasible and shall provide reasonable
         assistance to ITC/\DeltaCom as necessary for ITC/\DeltaCom to
         understand how to implement and use all of the OSS functions available
         to it. BellSouth shall provide information, assistance and access to
         training at rates as may be specified by BellSouth as necessary to
         provide ITC/\DeltaCom with nondiscriminatory access to BellSouth's OSS.
         BellSouth shall make available one free seat per year for each OSS
         system (e.g., LENS, TAG, EDI, and TAFI). Additional training shall be
         available at rates specified by BellSouth. BellSouth shall provide
         ITC/\DeltaCom with nondiscriminatory access to its Operations Support
         Systems ("OSS") as necessary to access pre-ordering information, place
         orders, and obtain maintenance and repair, of both Resale Services and
         Unbundled Network Elements ("UNEs"). Detailed guidelines for ordering
         and pre-ordering are set forth in the Ordering Guide for manual
         ordering and the Local Exchange Ordering Guide for electronic ordering.
         Except where otherwise required by Commission order, where practicable,
         BellSouth will notify ITC/\DeltaCom of changes to ordering and
         preordering interfaces and business rules via the appropriate BellSouth
         web site thirty days prior to such changes. Where thirty (30) days
         advance notice is not practicable, BellSouth will use its best efforts
         to provide such notification via the appropriate web site within one
         (1) day of BellSouth's decision to implement the changes or as soon as
         possible. In addition, BellSouth will use its best efforts, through the
         account team assigned to ITC/\DeltaCom and upon ITC/\DeltaCom's
         request, to provide such notices via e-mail to the address specified by
         ITC/\DeltaCom.

1.2      All changes implemented by the Change Control Process ("CCP") shall be
         followed by the Parties. Upon request of ITC/\DeltaCom for electronic
         access to the pre-ordering, ordering/provisioning, maintenance/repair
         and billing functions described herein, BellSouth shall make available
         to ITC/\DeltaCom the following interfaces, without limitation: (i) for
         ordering, an electronic interface utilizing the Electronic Data
         Interchange ("EDI") protocol, consistent with the most recent industry
         standards for such systems established by the Ordering and Billing
         Forum ("OBF") and the Alliance for Telecommunications Industry
         Solutions ("ATIS") as determined by the CCP; (ii) for pre-ordering and
         ordering, a -human-to-machine interface known as the Local Exchange
         Navigation System ("LENS"), and the machine-to-machine interface known
         as Telecommunications Access Gateway ("TAG"); (iii) facsimile-based and
         e-mail-based interfaces; (iv)

                                                                    Attachment 6

         BellSouth's Trouble Analysis and Facilitation Interface ("TAFI"), T I
         /M I machine-to-machine interface, and Electronic Communication Trouble
         Administration ("ECTA") interface for maintenance and repair; or (v)
         any other mutually agreeable method. Each such interface shall be made
         available to support the ordering of both Resale services and UNEs
         (provided that as of the date hereof LENS does not support UNE
         ordering), and shall be upgraded as necessary to ensure that
         ITC/\DeltaCom is provided access to OSS functions at parity to that
         provided by BellSouth to itself, its Affiliates or any other
         Telecommunications Carrier.

1.3      Access shall be offered immediately for pre-ordering capability
         integratable with ordering capability, and for associated
         maintenance/repair and billing functions. Any such interface shall
         remain consistent with ATIS, Telecommunications Industry Forum ("TIF"),
         and the most current industry guideline(s) as determined by the EICCP.
         Notwithstanding the forgoing, in the event that an industry standard
         interface is developed by the appropriate industry forum , and is
         generally accepted for implementation by the industry, then upon
         agreement by the EICCP, BellSouth shall implement such interface and
         make it available to ITC/\DeltaCom on a timely basis.

1.4      When BellSouth is unable to test and implement OSS interfaces for
         multiple Telecommunications Carriers simultaneously, BellSouth shall
         engage in such testing and implementation on a "first come-first
         served" basis.

1.5      ITC/\DeltaCom may utilize BellSouth electronic interfaces for the
         purpose of establishing and maintaining Resale services, UNEs, and
         future uses as they are made available by BellSouth.

1.6      When utilizing such OSS functions, ITC/\DeltaCom shall at all times
         adhere to all FCC requirements relating to confidentiality of
         End-Users' Customer Proprietary Network Information ("CPNI") and in
         accordance with the terms of the Blanket Letter of Authorization
         provided to BellSouth.

1.7      BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall jointly establish interface
         contingency and disaster recovery plans for the pre-order, ordering,
         provisioning, repair and maintenance of Resale Services and UNEs.

1.8     The electronic interfaces described herein shall be utilized for, but
        not limited to, transferring and receiving orders, Firm Order
        Confirmations ("FOCs"), completion notices, other electronic error
        notices, and service jeopardies.

1.9     industry standards bodies and forums (OBF and ECIC) regularly produce
        updates and new releases to specifications and documentation related to
        electronic access to OSS functions.  Except as otherwise specified in
        the Agreement, the Parties agree that systems utilized for access to
        OSS shall be compliant with the most current policies and/or guidelines
        of OBF and ECIC, as determined by the CCP.

        1.9.1   Neither Party waives its right to participate in, or advocate
                any position in connection with deliberations of OBF, ATIS-TIF
                or other industry standards organizations to establish and
                conform standards for electronic interfaces for pre-ordering,
                ordering, provisioning, and maintenance and repoair.
                ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth shall be individually responsible
                for evaluating the risk of developing their respective systems
                in advance of standards and shall support their own system
                modifications as necessary to comply with new requirements.

1.10    In areas where BellSouth does not provide an electronic interface for
        the pre-order and ordering processes, BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall
        develop manual work around processes until such time as the transactions
        can be electronically transmitted. ITC/\DeltaCom shall transmit preorder
        and ordering requests to the Local Carrier Service Center ("LCSC")via
        facsimile where electronic interfaces are not available or are not
        functioning.

                  business hours that BellSouth provisions services to its own
                  end users. All other ITC/\DeltaCom requests for provision and
                  installation services are considered outside of the normal
                  hours of operation and may be performed subject to the
                  application of additional charges.

         4.6.2    BellSouth shall provide access to assistance for technical
                  issues such as connectivity and passwords related to LENS, TAG
                  and TAFI, and to the "EDI Central Group" for technical
                  problems with EDI. Assistance will be available by telephone
                  during normal business hours and through other contacts on
                  nights, weekends and holidays.

                  4.6.3.2  Upon request of ITC/\DeltaCom, advance information on
                           the details and requirements for planning and
                           implementation of NPA splits.

                  4.6.3.3  BellSouth shall provide MSAG to ITC/\DeltaCom, as a
                           facilities based carrier, and shall provide updates
                           to MSAG on a quarterly basis. MSAG and the updates
                           thereto shall be provided at no charge.

         4.6.4    BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall work cooperatively to
                  develop methods and procedures between BellSouth's LCSC and
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's corresponding Work Center(s) regarding common
                  systems and work center interfaces.

         4.6.5    BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall establish mutually
                  acceptable methods andprocedures at no charge to the other for
                  handling all misdirected calls from ITC/\DeltaCom End Users.
                  All misdirected calls to BellSouth from ITC/\DeltaCom End
                  Users shall be given a recording (or a live statement)
                  directing them to call an ITC/\DeltaCom designated 800 number.
                  ITC/\DeltaCom, on a reciprocal basis, shall refer all
                  misdirected calls that ITC/\DeltaCom receives from BellSouth
                  End Users to a BellSouth-designated number.

         4.6.6    BellSouth shall provide order format specifications to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom for all available services, features, and
                  functions and for ancillary data that is necessary to
                  provision these services. Business Rules and EDI Mapping for

                  guidelines and standards.

         4.6.7    The Parties shall provide a generic intercept referral message
                  that includes any new telephone number of an End User for the
                  same period of time that the Party's provide such service to
                  their end users. The intercept message shall be similar in
                  format to the intercept referral

                  message currently provided by BellSouth for its own End Users.
                  Each Party shall provide this referral service at no charge to
                  the other Party.

         4.6.8    BellSouth shall perform all pre-testing necessary to insure
                  the services ordered meet the specifications outlined in the
                  technical service description provided by BellSouth for the
                  service being ordered.

         4.6.9    Any written "leave behind" materials that BellSouth
                  technicians provide to ITC/\DeltaCom End Users shall be
                  non-branded materials that do not identify the work being
                  performed as being by BellSouth. These materials shall
                  include, without limitation, non-branded forms for the
                  Customer and non-branded "not at home" cards.

         4.6.10   If an ITC/\DeltaCom End User requests a change of service at
                  the time of installation, BellSouth technicians shall direct
                  them to contact ITC/\DeltaCom directly and provide a toll-free
                  (8xx) number supplied by ITC/\DeltaCom. When a BellSouth
                  employee visits the premise of an ITC/\DeltaCom End User, the
                  BellSouth employee shall inform the Customer that he or she is
                  there acting on behalf of ITC/\DeltaCom.

         4.6.11   BellSouth shall provide telephone and/or facsimile
                  notification of any charges associated with any construction
                  required for a given service, and obtain ITC/\DeltaCom's
                  approval prior to commencing construction under an
                  ITC/\DeltaCom order for such service or those charges shall be
                  waived.

         4.6.12   Each Party shall train and direct its employees who have
                  contact with End Users of the other Party, including but not
                  limited to those employees involved in the process of
                  provisioning, maintenance or repair, not to disparage the
                  other Party or its services in any way to the other Party's
                  End Users. Nor shall either Party use these calls to End Users
                  as a basis for internal referrals or to solicit customers to
                  market services. Both Parties shall respond with accurate
                  information in answering customer questions.

         4.6.13   When ITC/\DeltaCom places an LSR, ITC/\DeltaCom shall specify
                  a requested Due Date, and BellSouth shall assign a Due Date
                  based on the applicable intervals. In the event
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's requested date is less than the standard
                  interval, ITC/\DeltaCom shall contact BellSouth by telephone
                  and the Parties shall negotiate an expedited Due Date. This
                  situation shall be considered an expedited order. In the event
                  the

                  negotiated Due Date assigned by BellSouth is within the
                  standard interval, the order will not be considered expedited.
                  BellSouth shall not complete the order prior to the Due Date
                  unless authorized by ITC/\DeltaCom. BellSouth shall use its
                  best efforts to notify ITC/\DeltaCom of any known jeopardies
                  prior to the scheduled conversion. BellSouth shall also
                  promptly notify ITC/\DeltaCom of the revised installation Due
                  Date if known at the time of the jeopardy notice. If
                  ITC/\DeltaCom requests that an order be expedited, BellSouth
                  shall notify ITC/\DeltaCom of the status of the order within
                  the expedited interval (i) by the end of the same Business Day
                  when such expedite requests are made prior to noon; or (ii) by
                  noon the following Business Day otherwise.

         4.6.14   ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth shall agree to escalation
                  procedures and contacts for resolving issues related to
                  ordering and provisioning procedures or to the processing of
                  individual orders, subject ultimately to the dispute
                  resolution provisions of this Agreement. BellSouth shall use
                  its best efforts to notify ITC/\DeltaCom of any modifications
                  to these contacts within ten business (10) days of any such
                  modifications.

         4.6.15   BellSouth shall transmit to ITC/\DeltaCom a FOC or, in the
                  alternative, notification of the lack of available facilities
                  within time periods specified herein after BellSouth's receipt
                  of a complete and correct LSR from ITC/\DeltaCom, provided,
                  however, that an LSR for complex services requiring a service
                  inquiry shall be deemed received for these purposes only after
                  completion of the service inquiry. The FOC shall contain a due
                  date which shall be established on a nondiscriminatory basis
                  with respect to installation dates for comparable orders at
                  such time. If ITC/\DeltaCom uses EDI, or any other electronic
                  interface for the submission of the LSR, the FOC or
                  notification shall be posted by BellSouth in EDI or in the
                  electronic interface used within 24 hours of receipt of
                  theLSR. If ITC/\DeltaCom does not use an electronic interface,
                  or, an electronic interface is not available for the service
                  or UNE being ordered, BellSouth shall transmit the FOC or
                  notification by facsimile to a toll-free number provided by
                  ITC/\DeltaCom within 48 hours of BellSouth's receipt of
                  theLSR. When ITC/\DeltaCom submits a complete and correct LSR
                  for INP and an associated unbundled Loop simultaneously,
                  BellSouth shall likewise issue a FOC for both the Loop and the
                  INP simultaneously.

         4.6.16   BellSouth shall notify ITC/\DeltaCom via electronic interface,
                  of Rejections/Errors contained in any of the data element(s)
                  fields contained on any ITC/\DeltaCom electronic Service
                  Request. If the electronic interface is unavailable or
                  malfunctioning, BellSouth shall notify ITC/\DeltaCom by
                  telephone, facsimile, or email as mutually agreed to by the
                  Parties, of such Rejections and Errors.

         4.6.17   ITC/\DeltaCom shall specify on each LSR its Desired Due Date
                  (DDD) for completion of that particular order. BellSouth shall
                  not complete the order prior to DDD unless early turn-up is
                  needed for testing purposes. BellSouth shall notify
                  ITC/\DeltaCom if the DDD cannot be met. BellSouth shall
                  exercise best efforts to meet the DDD for Network Element
                  requests.

4.6.18            USE OF FACILITIES. When a customer of ITC/\DeltaCom elects to
                  discontinue service and transfer service to another local
                  exchange carrier, including BellSouth, BellSouth shall have
                  the right to reuse the facilities provided to ITC/\DeltaCom by
                  BellSouth for retail or resale service, unbundled loop and/or
                  unbundled port for that customer. In addition, BellSouth may
                  disconnect and reuse facilities when the facility is in a
                  denied state and BellSouth has received an order to establish
                  new service or transfer of service from a customer or a
                  customer's CLEC at the same address served by the denied
                  facility. In the event of such reuse of facilities, BellSouth
                  and ITC/\DeltaCom shall coordinate such transition to avoid
                  any service outage to the end users.

         4.6.18.1 Upon receipt of a service order, BellSouth will do the
                  following:

                  4.6.18.1.1   Process disconnect and reconnect orders to
                  provision the service which shall be due dated using current
                  interval guidelines.

                  4.6.18.1.2   Reuse the serving facility for the retail, resale
                  service, or unbundled network element at the same location.

                  4.6.18.1.3   Notify ITC/\DeltaCom subsequent to the disconnect
                  order being completed.

         4.6.19   BellSouth shall provision UNEs with the same timeliness that
                  the same or similar facilities are provisioned to BellSouth's
                  Affiliates, or other Persons to whom BellSouth directly
                  provides such facilities.

         4.6.20   When available, BellSouth shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom with the
                  ability to have BellSouth end offices AIN triggers initiated
                  via an electronic service order from ITC/\DeltaCom.

         4.6.21   ITC/\DeltaCom may order from BellSouth multiple individual
                  UNEs on a single order without the need for ITC/\DeltaCom to
                  send an order for each such UNE, if such UNEs are (i) for a
                  single type of service, (ii) for a single location and (iii)
                  for the same account.

         4.6.22   BellSouth shall recognize ITC/\DeltaCom as the Customer of
                  Record for all UNEs ordered by ITC/\DeltaCom and shall send
                  all notices, invoices and pertinent Customer information
                  directly to ITC/\DeltaCom.

         4.6.23   Within two (2) hours of ITC/\DeltaCom's request, BellSouth
                  shall use its best efforts to perform cooperative testing with
                  ITC/\DeltaCom (including trouble shooting to isolate any
                  problems) to test UNEs purchased by ITC/\DeltaCom in order to
                  identify any performance problems.

         4.6.24   Order Flow Through. Order Flow Through is defined as the
                  process whereby ITC/\DeltaCom's orders are transmitted
                  electronically through the gateway and accepted into
                  BellSouth's back office order systems without manual
                  intervention.

         4.6.25   BellSouth will provide ITC/\DeltaCom with one line equipped
                  for Remote Call Forwarding in certain BellSouth switches as
                  set forth in this Section for ITC/\DeltaCom's use solely to
                  conduct verification testing of routing and translations
                  instructions in BellSouth's switches. Such verification is
                  intended to confirm that BellSouth has implemented proper
                  routing and translations instructions in the BellSouth switch
                  so that calls from end users served by such BellSouth switch
                  will be properly routed to NXX codes assigned to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom's switch. The Remote Call Forwarding line will
                  be equipped with one call path. Provision of such lines will
                  generally coincide with ITC/\DeltaCom's installation of new
                  switches where ITC/\DeltaCom assigns new NXX codes to such
                  switches. In such cases, the Remote Call Forwarding lines will
                  be provided to ITC/\DeltaCom in sufficient time for
                  ITC/\DeltaCom to perform its verification testing prior to NXX
                  code activation. Thereafter, ITC/\DeltaCom may use the Remote
                  Call Forwarding lines to perform NXX code verification
                  testing. Remote Call Forwarding lines will also be provided to
                  ITC/\DeltaCom as needed for verification testing relating to

                  existing switches. ITC/\DeltaCom will pay the same
                  non-recurring and recurring rates for these Remote Call
                  Forwarding lines as ITC/\DeltaCom pays for Remote Call
                  Forwarding used in conjunction with Interim Number Portability
                  as set forth in Exhibit A to Attachment 5 of this Agreement.

4.7      UNE CONVERSIONS

         4.7.1    BellSouth agrees to coordinate with ITC/\DeltaCom at least
                  forty-eight hours prior to the due date a scheduled conversion
                  date and time.

         4.7.2    Twenty-four (24) to forty-eight (48) hours in advance of a
                  loop cutover, BellSouth will conduct testing to ensure that
                  dial tone from ITC/\DeltaCom is available for requested loops.
                  If dial tone is not available from ITC/\DeltaCom, BellSouth
                  will so notify ITC/\DeltaCom.

         4.7.3    If ITC/\DeltaCom requests or approves that a BellSouth
                  technician perform services in excess of those necessary for
                  the conversion of "live" Telephone Exchange Services to UNEs,
                  BellSouth may charge ITC/\DeltaCom for any additional
                  reasonable labor charges to perform such services.

         4.7.4    Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the
                  performance/intervals for installation of unbundled Loops
                  should not exceed the interval for reestablishing service for
                  the customer with BellSouth.

5.0      MAINTENANCE/REPAIR INTERFACES AND FUNCTIONS

5.1      BellSouth shall make available electronic interfaces to ITC/\DeltaCom
         for maintenance, trouble reporting, and repair, including initiation of
         trouble tickets, updates/changes, status checking, scheduling
         maintenance appointments, and cancellation, for both Resale services
         and UNEs. Ongoing maintenance practices on unbundled loops shall equal
         the practices employed by BellSouth for facilities used to provide
         retail services. BellSouth will use its best efforts to ensure that the
         mean time to repair unbundled loops shall be equivalent to the mean
         time to repair reported by BellSouth for its retail customers.

5.2      BellSouth's maintenance systems and databases will allow ITC/\DeltaCom
         maintenance personnel and customer service representatives to perform
         the following functions for ITC/\DeltaCom Customers: (i) enter a new

         Customer; (ii) retrieve and track current status on all ITC/\DeltaCom
         Customer repair tickets; (iii) receive "estimated time to repair"
         ("ETTR") on a real-time basis; (iv) perform where appropriate an
         electronic test at the time of ticket entry and provide test results to
         ITC/\DeltaCom; and (v) electronic notification when trouble is cleared.

5.3      If an electronic interface is not available, BellSouth agrees that
         ITC/\DeltaCom may transmit repair calls to BellSouth's repair bureau
         and request dispatching a BellSouth technician to an ITC/\DeltaCom
         customer's premises by telephone. BellSouth agrees to provide the
         status upon ITC/\DeltaCom's request, in an expedient manner. The speed
         of answer time for ITC/\DeltaCom shall be equal to that for BellSouth.

5.4      BellSouth shall prioritize ITC/\DeltaCom end users for purposes of
         repair in the same manner and within the same time frames that
         BellSouth prioritizes its own end users for repair as described in this
         Section. In disaster situations, BellSouth follows the FCC's Emergency
         Preparedness Restoration Guidelines (010-400-002 BT). In non-disaster
         situations, BellSouth shall expedite, at no additional charge, the
         repair of ITC/\DeltaCom's UNEs and services where ITC/\DeltaCom reports
         to BellSouth that the UNE or service serves an emergency facility, an
         end user requiring access to emergency facilities via
         telecommunications services or another high priority end user.
         ITC/\DeltaCom agrees to submit expedite reports pursuant to this
         Section only in the circumstances described herein, and any such report
         for prioritization shall be made in good faith. The Parties shall
         comply with the Disaster Recovery Plan as set forth in Exhibit A of
         this Attachment.

5.5      BellSouth agrees to advise ITC/\DeltaCom of any central office failure
         or other major service interruptions that are known at the time of an
         inquiry or trouble report.

5.6      BellSouth agrees to provide, via electronic interface, an Estimated
         Time to Repair ("ETTR") on all trouble reports submitted
         electronically, an appointment time or a commitment time, as
         appropriate.

5.7      The Parties shall insure that all technicians and representatives are
         properly trained and that they follow such procedures in all their
         communications with End Users. At a minimum, the aforementioned
         procedures shall assume that: (1) BellSouth technicians shall provide
         repair service that is at least equal in quality to that provided to
         BellSouth customers or any other entity; (2) maintenance and repair
         shall take place based on a prioritization schedule devised by mutual
         agreement of the parties; (3) Customers shall be restored to

                                       15

         service based on the priority system devised by mutual agreement of the
         parties on a non-discriminatory basis; and (4) ITC/\DeltaCom may
         prioritize repair scheduling of its own customers through an escalation
         procedure.

5.8      The BellSouth repair bureau including the Electronic Interface , shall
         be on-line and operational twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7)
         days per week except for scheduled electronic interface downtime.

5.9      Service centers shall be established by both Parties to handle service
         issues, escalations, resolution of billing issues and other
         administrative problems.

5.10     The Parties agree to adopt a process for the efficient management of
         misdirected service calls.

5.11     BellSouth shall perform Mechanized Unbundled Loop Tests ("Quick Test")
         at the request of ITC/\DeltaCom while ITC/\DeltaCom is on line.

5.12     BellSouth shall close all trouble reports with ITC/\DeltaCom, within 24
         hours of resolution of the trouble. ITC/\DeltaCom shall close all
         trouble reports with the End User. BellSouth's outside technicians
         shall clear troubles to the network interface and provide callback from
         the fault location to ITC/\DeltaCom.

5.13     BellSouth shall not undertake any work at an End User's request for
         which ITC/\DeltaCom would be charged without obtaining the prior
         approval of ITC/\DeltaCom. This includes authorizations by
         ITC/\DeltaCom if a dispatch is required to the customer premises as
         well as verification of actual work completed.

5.14     All Auto/Subscriber Line Tests ("ALT/SLT") tests performed on
         ITC/\DeltaCom customers that result in a failure shall be reported to
         ITC/\DeltaCom.

5.15     ITC/\DeltaCom shall coordinate dispatches to the customer premise. This
         includes redispatches for customer not-at-home.

5.16     BellSouth shall respond to ITC/\DeltaCom customer alarms consistent
         with how and when they respond to alarms for their own customers.
         BellSouth shall ensure that all applicable alarm systems that support
         ITC/\DeltaCom customers are operational and the supporting databases
         are accurate so that equipment that is in alarm will be promptly
         identified.

5.17     BellSouth will use best efforts to notify ITC/\DeltaCom, of any
         scheduled maintenance activity performed by BellSouth that may be
         service affecting to ITC/\DeltaCom local customers (i.e., cable throws,
         power tests, etc.).

5.18     The Parties agree to establish a special emergency escalation procedure
         for use in situations involving customer out-of-service situations.

5.19     In facility and power outage situations, BellSouth agrees to provide
         UNEs leased by ITC/\DeltaCom the same priority for maintenance and
         restoral as similar elements used by BellSouth for itself or its
         Affiliates.

5.20     BellSouth shall notify ITC/\DeltaCom at parity with its own retail
         units in the event any repair person is unable to be present for, or
         anticipates missing, a scheduled repair opportunity.

1.0      PURPOSE
In the unlikely event of a disaster occurring that affects BellSouth's long-term
ability to deliver traffic to a Competitive Local Exchange Carrier (CLEC),
general procedures have been developed to hasten the recovery process. Since
each location is different and could be affected by an assortment of potential
problems, a detailed recovery plan is impractical. However, in the process of
reviewing recovery activities for specific locations, some basic procedures
emerge that appear to be common in most cases.

These general procedures should apply to any disaster that affects the delivery
of traffic for an extended time period. Each CLEC will be given the same parity
consideration during an outage and service will be restored as quickly as
possible.

This document will cover the basic recovery procedures that would apply to every
CLEC.

2.0      SINGLE POINT OF CONTACT

When a problem is experienced, regardless of the severity, the BellSouth Network
Management Center (NMC) will observe traffic anomalies and begin monitoring the
situation. Controls will be appropriately applied to insure the sanity of
BellSouth's network; and, in the event that a switch or facility node is lost,
the NMC will attempt to circumvent the failure using available reroutes.

BellSouth's NMC will remain in control of the restoration efforts until the
problem has been identified as being a long-term outage. At that time, the NMC
will contact BellSouth's Emergency Control Center (ECC) and relinquish control
of the recovery efforts. Even though the ECC may take charge of the situation,
the NMC will continue to monitor the circumstances and restore traffic as soon
as damaged network elements are revitalized.

         THE TELEPHONE NUMBER FOR THE BELLSOUTH NETWORK MANAGEMENT CENTER IN
ATLANTA, AS PUBLISHED IN TELCORDIA'S NATIONAL NETWORK MANAGEMENT DIRECTORY, IS
404-321-2516. THE TELEPHONE NUMBER FOR ITC/\DELTACOM'S SWITCH CONTROL CENTER IS
888-430-2722.

3.0      IDENTIFYING THE PROBLEM

During the early stages of problem detection, the NMC will be able to tell which
CLECs are affected by the catastrophe. Further analysis and/or first hand
observation will determine if the disaster has affected CLEC equipment only;
BellSouth equipment only or a combination. The initial restoration activity will
be largely determined by the equipment that is affected.

Once the nature of the disaster is determined and after verifying the cause of
the problem, the NMC will initiate reroutes and/or transfers that are jointly
agreed upon by the affected CLECs' Network Management Center and the BellSouth
NMC. The type and percentage of controls used will depend upon available network
capacity. Controls necessary to stabilize the situation will be invoked and the
NMC will attempt to re-establish as much traffic as possible.

                                       19
<PAGE>

                                                                   ATTACHMENT  6

For long term outages, recovery efforts will be coordinated by the Emergency
Control Center (ECC). Traffic controls will continue to be applied by the NMC
until facilities are re-established. As equipment is made available for service,
the ECC will instruct the NMC to begin removing the controls and allow traffic
to resume.

3.1      SITE CONTROL

In the total loss of building use scenario, what likely exists will be a smoking
pile of rubble. This rubble will contain many components which could be
dangerous. It could also contain any personnel on the premises at the time of
the disaster. For these reasons, the local fire marshal with the assistance of
the police will control the site until the building is no longer a threat to
surrounding properties and the companies have secured the site from the general
public.

During this time, the majority owner of the building should be arranging for a
demolition contractor to mobilize to the site with the primary objective of
reaching the cable entrance facility for a damage assessment. The results of
this assessment would then dictate immediate plans for restoration, both short
term and permanent.

In a less catastrophic event, i.e., the building is still standing and the cable
entrance facility is usable, the situation is more complex. The site will
initially be controlled by local authorities until the threat to adjacent
property has diminished. Once the site is returned to the control of the
companies, the following events should occur.

An initial assessment of the main building infrastructure systems (mechanical,
electrical, fire & life safety, elevators, and others) will establish building
needs. Once these needs are determined, the majority owner should lead the
building restoration efforts. There may be situations where the site will not be
totally restored within the confines of the building. The companies must
individually determine their needs and jointly assess the cost of permanent
restoration to determine the overall plan of action.

Multiple restoration trailers from each company will result in the need for
designated space and installation order. This layout and control is required to
maximize the amount of restoration equipment that can be placed at the site, and
the priority of placements.

Care must be taken in this planning to insure other restoration efforts have
logistical access to the building. Major components of telephone and building
equipment will need to be removed and replaced. A priority for this equipment
must also be jointly established to facilitate overall site restoration.
(Example: If the AC switchgear has sustained damage, this would be of the
highest priority in order to regain power, lighting, and HVAC throughout the
building.)

If the site will not accommodate the required restoration equipment, the
companies would then need to quickly arrange with local authorities for street
closures, rights of way or other possible options available.

3.2      ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS

In the worse case scenario, many environmental concerns must be addressed. Along
with the police and fire marshal, the state environmental protection department
will be on site to monitor the situation.

                                       20
<PAGE>

                                                                   ATTACHMENT  6

Items to be concerned with in a large central office building could include:

         1. Emergency engine fuel supply. Damage to the standby equipment and
         the fuel handling equipment could have created "spill" conditions that
         have to be handled within state and federal regulations.

         2. Asbestos containing materials that may be spread throughout the
         wreckage. Asbestos could be in many components of building, electrical,
         mechanical, outside plant distribution, and telephone systems.

         3. Lead and acid. These materials could be present in potentially large
         quantities depending upon the extent of damage to the power room.

         4. Mercury and other regulated compounds resident in telephone
         equipment.

         5. Other compounds produced by the fire or heat.

Once a total loss event occurs at a large site, local authorities will control
immediate clean up (water placed on the wreckage by the fire department) and
site access.

At some point, the companies will become involved with local authorities in the
overall planning associated with site clean up and restoration. Depending on the
clean up approach taken, delays in the restoration of several hours to several
days may occur.

In a less severe disaster, items listed above are more defined and can be
addressed individually depending on the damage.

In each case, the majority owner should coordinate building and environmental
restoration as well as maintain proper planning and site control.

4.0      THE EMERGENCY CONTROL CENTER (ECC)

The ECC is located in the Colonnade Building in Birmingham, Alabama. During an
emergency, the ECC staff will convene a group of pre-selected experts to
inventory the damage and initiate corrective actions. These experts have
regional access to BellSouth's personnel and equipment and will assume control
of the restoration activity anywhere in the nine state area.

In the past, the ECC has been involve with restoration activities resulting from
hurricanes, ice storms and floods. They have demonstrated their capabilities
during these calamities as well as during outages caused by human error or
equipment failures. This group has an excellent record of restoring service as
quickly as possible.

During a major disaster, the ECC may move emergency equipment to the affected
location, direct recovery efforts of local personnel and coordinate service
restoration activities with the CLECs. The ECC will attempt to

                                       21
<PAGE>

                                                                   ATTACHMENT  6

restore service as quickly as possible using whatever means are available;
leaving permanent solutions, such as the replacement of damaged buildings or
equipment, for local personnel to administer.

Part of the ECC's responsibility, after temporary equipment is in place, is to
support the NMC efforts to return service to the CLECs. Once service has been
restored, the ECC will return control of the network to normal operational
organizations. Any long-term changes required after service is restored will be
made in an orderly fashion and will be conducted as normal activity.

5.0      RECOVERY PROCEDURES

The nature and severity of any disaster will influence the recovery procedures.
One crucial factor in determining how BellSouth will proceed with restoration is
whether or not BellSouth's equipment is incapacitated. Regardless of who's
equipment is out of service, BellSouth will move as quickly as possible to aid
with service recovery; however, the approach that will be taken may differ
depending upon the location of the problem.

5.1      CLEC OUTAGE

For a problem limited to one CLEC (or a building with multiple CLECs), BellSouth
has several options available for restoring service quickly. For those CLECs
that have agreements with other CLECs, BellSouth can immediately start directing
traffic to a provisional CLEC for completion. This alternative is dependent upon
BellSouth having concurrence from the affected CLECs.

Whether or not the affected CLECs have requested a traffic transfer to another
CLEC will not impact BellSouth's resolve to re-establish traffic to the original
destination as quickly as possible.

5.2      BELLSOUTH OUTAGE

Because BellSouth's equipment has varying degrees of impact on the service
provided to the CLECs, restoring service from damaged BellSouth equipment is
different. The outage will probably impact a number of Carriers simultaneously.
However, the ECC will be able to initiate immediate actions to correct the
problem.

A disaster involving any of BellSouth's equipment locations could impact the
CLECs, some more than others. A disaster at a Central Office (CO) would only
impact the delivery of traffic to and from that one location, but the incident
could affect many Carriers. If the Central Office is a Serving Wire Center
(SWC), then traffic from the entire area to those Carriers served from that
switch would also be impacted. If the switch functions as an Access Tandem, or
there is a tandem in the building, traffic from every CO to every CLEC could be
interrupted. A disaster that destroys a facility hub could disrupt various
traffic flows, even though the switching equipment may be unaffected.

The NMC would be the first group to observe a problem involving BellSouth's
equipment. Shortly after a disaster, the NMC will begin applying controls and
finding reroutes for the completion of as much traffic as possible. These
reroutes may involve delivering traffic to alternate Carriers upon receiving
approval from affected carriers and notification of the CLECs involved. In some
cases, changes in translations will be required. If the outage is caused by the
destruction of equipment, then the ECC will assume control of the restoration.

                                                                   ATTACHMENT  6

5.2.1    LOSS OF A CENTRAL OFFICE

When BellSouth loses a Central Office, the ECC will

         a) place specialists and emergency equipment on notice;

         b) inventory the damage to determine what equipment and/or functions
         are lost;

         c) move containerized emergency equipment and facility equipment to the
         stricken area, if necessary;

         d) begin reconnecting service for Hospitals, Police and other emergency
         agency customers of CLECs and BellSouth in a nondiscriminatory manner
         in accordance with NSEP-TSP guidelines; and

         e) begin restoring service to CLECs and other customers.

5.2.2    LOSS OF A CENTRAL OFFICE WITH SERVING WIRE CENTER FUNCTIONS

The loss of a Central Office that also serves as a Serving Wire Center (SWC),
will be restored as described in section 5.2.1.

5.2.3    LOSS OF A CENTRAL OFFICE WITH TANDEM FUNCTIONS

When BellSouth loses a Central Office building that serves as an Access Tandem
and as a SWC, the ECC will

         a) place specialists and emergency equipment on notice;

         b) inventory the damage to determine what equipment and/or functions
         are lost;

         c) move containerized emergency equipment and facility equipment to the
         stricken area, if necessary;

         d) begin reconnecting service for Hospitals, Police and other emergency
         agency customers of CLECs and BellSouth in a nondiscriminatory manner
         in accordance with NSEP-TSP guidelines; and

         e) redirect as much traffic as possible to the alternate access tandem
         (if available) for delivery to those CLECs utilizing a different
         location as a SWC;

         f) begin aggregating traffic to a location near the damaged building.
         From this location, begin re-establishing trunk groups to the CLECs for
         the delivery of traffic normally found on the direct trunk groups.
         (This aggregation point may be the alternate access tandem location or
         another CO on a primary facility route.)

         g) begin restoring service to CLECs and other customers.

5.2.4    LOSS OF A FACILITY HUB

In the event that BellSouth loses a facility hub, the recovery process is much
the same as above. Once the NMC has observed the problem and administered the
appropriate controls, the ECC will assume authority for the repairs. The
recovery effort will include

         a) placing specialists and emergency equipment on notice;

         b) inventorying the damage to determine what equipment and/or functions
         are lost;

         c) moving containerized emergency equipment to the stricken area, if
         necessary;

         d) reconnecting service for Hospitals, Police and other emergency
         agency customers of CLECs and BellSouth in a nondiscriminatory manner
         in accordance with NSEP-TSP guidelines; and

         e) restoring service to CLECs and other customers. If necessary,
         BellSouth will aggregate the traffic at another location and build
         temporary facilities. This alternative would be viable for a location
         that is destroyed and building repairs are required.

5.3      COMBINED OUTAGE (CLEC AND BELLSOUTH EQUIPMENT)

In some instances, a disaster may impact BellSouth's equipment as well as the
CLECs'. This situation will be handled in much the same way as described in
section 5.2.3. Since BellSouth and the CLECs will be utilizing temporary
equipment, close coordination will be required.

6.0      T1 IDENTIFICATION PROCEDURES

During the restoration of service after a disaster, BellSouth may be forced to
aggregate traffic for delivery to an CLEC. During this process, T1 traffic may
be consolidated onto DS3s and may become unidentifiable to the Carrier. Because
resources will be limited, BellSouth may be forced to "package" this traffic
entirely differently then normally received by the CLECs. Therefore, a method
for identifying the T1 traffic on the DS3s and providing the information to the
Carriers is required.

     Billing System (CABS) and through the Customer Records Information System
     (CRIS) depending on the particular service(s) that ITC/\DeltaCom requests.
     BellSouth will bill and record in accordance with this agreement those
     charges ITC/\DeltaCom incurs as a result of ITC/\DeltaCom purchasing from
     BellSouth Network Elements, Combinations, and Local Services, as set forth
     in this agreement. BellSouth will format all bills in CBOS Standard or
     CLUB/EDI format, depending on the type of service ordered. BellSouth's
     bills to ITC/\DeltaCom for unbundled network elements and resold services
     purchased by ITC/\DeltaCom shall include the item, quantity and price of
     such purchased services. For those services where standards have not yet
     been developed, BellSouth's billing format will change as necessary when
     standards are finalized by the Ordering and Billing Forum (OBF).

     1.1.1 If ITC/\DeltaCom requests multiple billing media or additional copies
           of bills BellSouth will provide these at a reasonable cost.

1.2  MASTER ACCOUNT. If ITC/\DeltaCom has not already done so, after receiving
     certification as a local exchange company from the appropriate regulatory
     agency, ITC/\DeltaCom will provide the appropriate BellSouth service center
     the necessary documentation to enable BellSouth to establish a master
     account for resold services. Such documentation shall include the
     Application for Master Account, proof of authority to provide
     telecommunications services, an Operating Company Number ("OCN") assigned
     by the National Exchange Carriers Association ("NECA") and a tax exemption
     certificate, if applicable. To the extent applicable, BellSouth shall
     maintain an account under which ITC/\DeltaCom shall bill BellSouth for
     services provided pursuant to this Agreement.

1.3  PAYMENT RESPONSIBILITY. Payment of all charges will be the responsibility
     of ITC/\DeltaCom or BellSouth as applicable. ITC/\DeltaCom and BellSouth
     shall make payment to each other for all services billed. Neither Party
     shall be responsible for payments not received by the other Party's
     customers. Neither Party shall become involved in billing disputes that may
     arise between the other Party and its customers. Payments made by either
     Party as payment on account shall be credited to an accounts receivable
     master account and not to an end user's account.

1.4  PAYMENT DUE. The payment shall be due by the next bill date (i.e., same
     date in the following month as the bill date) ("Payment Due Date") and is
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 7
                                                                          PAGE 2
     payable in immediately available funds. Payment is considered to have been
     made when received.

     1.4.1    If the payment due date falls on a Sunday or on a Holiday which is
              observed on a Monday, the payment due date shall be the first
              non-Holiday day following such Sunday or Holiday. If the payment
              due date falls on a Saturday or on a Holiday which is observed on
              Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday, the payment due date
              shall be the last non-Holiday day preceding such Saturday or
              Holiday. If payment is not received by the payment due date, a
              late payment penalty, as set forth in Section 1.7, below, shall
              apply.

1.5  TAX EXEMPTION. Upon proof of tax exempt certification, the total amount
     billed shall not include any taxes due from the end user. The Retail
     Service provider shall be solely responsible for the computation, tracking,
     reporting and payment of all federal, state and/or local jurisdiction taxes
     associated with the services resold to the end user.

1.6  MISCELLANEOUS. As the customer of record for resold services, ITC/\DeltaCom
     shall be responsible for, and remit to BellSouth, all charges applicable to
     its resold services for emergency services (E911 and 911) and
     Telecommunications Relay Service (TRS) as well as any other charges of a
     similar nature.

1.7  LATE PAYMENT. If any portion of the payment is received by the billing
     party after the payment due date as set forth preceding, or if any portion
     of the payment is received in funds that are not immediately available to
     the billing party, then a late payment penalty shall be due to the billing
     party. The late payment penalty shall be the portion of the payment not
     received by the payment due date times a late factor. The late factor shall
     be as set forth in Section A2 of BellSouth's General Subscriber Service
     Tariff, Section B2 of BellSouth's Private Line Service Tariff or Section E2
     of the Intrastate Access Tariff or the applicable ITC/\DeltaCom tariff as
     appropriate.

1.8  ACCESS CHARGES FOR RESOLD SERVICES. Any switched access charges associated
     with interexchange carrier access to the resold local exchange lines will
     be billed by, and due to, BellSouth. No additional charges are to be
     assessed to ITC/\DeltaCom.

1.9  END USER COMMON LINE CHARGE FOR RESOLD SERVICES. Pursuant to 47 CFR Section
     51.617, BellSouth will bill ITC/\DeltaCom end user common line charges
     identical to the end user common line charges BellSouth bills its end
     users.

                                                                          PAGE 3
1.10 DISCONTINUING SERVICE. The procedures for discontinuing service to
     ITC/\DeltaCom or BellSouth are as follows:

     1.10.1   Each party reserves the right to suspend or terminate service for
              nonpayment in accordance with applicable state and federal
              regulations.

     1.10.2   If payment of account is not received by the bill day in the month
              after the original bill day, the billing Party may provide written
              notice to the other Party that additional applications for service
              will be refused and that any pending orders for service will not
              be completed if payment is not received by the fifteenth day
              following the date of the notice. In addition the billing party
              may, at the same time, give thirty days notice to the person
              designated by the other party to receive notices of noncompliance,
              to discontinue the provision of existing services at any time
              thereafter.

     1.10.3   In the case of such discontinuance, all billed charges, as well as
              applicable termination charges, shall become due.

     1.10.4   If the billing party does not discontinue the provision of the
              services involved on the date specified in the thirty days notice
              and the other Party's noncompliance continues, nothing contained
              herein shall preclude the billing party's right to discontinue the
              provision of the services without further notice.

     1.10.5   If payment is not received or satisfactory arrangements made for
              payment by the date given in the written notification, the billed
              party's services may be discontinued. Upon discontinuance of
              service on the billed party's account, service to the billed
              party's end users will be denied. The billing party will
              reestablish service at the request of the end user or the other
              Party upon payment of the appropriate connection fee and subject
              to the billing party's 's normal application procedures. The
              billed party is solely responsible for notifying the end user of
              the proposed service disconnection.

     1.10.6   If within fifteen days after an end user's service has been denied
              no contact has been made in reference to restoring service, the
              end user's service shall be disconnected.

1.11 DEPOSIT POLICY. Either Party may be required to provide information
     regarding credit worthiness. If either Party repeatedly fails to pay
     undisputed billed charges by the Payment due date or its financial
     condition deteriorates materially, such party may be required to provide
     information regarding credit worthiness. Based on the results of the credit
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 7
                                                                          PAGE 4

     analysis, the Party providing services reserves the right to secure the
     account with a suitable form of security deposit. Such security deposit may
     take the form of an irrevocable Letter of Credit or in its sole discretion
     some other form of security acceptable to the Party providing service. Any
     such security deposit shall in no way release the customer from its
     obligation to make complete and timely payments of its bill. Such security
     may be required prior to the inauguration of service. If, in the sole
     opinion of the Party providing service, circumstances so warrant and/or
     gross monthly billing has increased beyond the level initially used to
     determine the level of security, the Party providing service reserves the
     right to request additional security. Interest on a security deposit shall
     accrue and be refunded in accordance with the terms in the appropriate
     tariff of the Party providing service.

2.   BILLING AND BILLING ACCURACY CERTIFICATION

2.1  At the option of ITC/\DeltaCom, BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom shall mutually
     agree upon a billing quality assurance program for all billing elements
     covered in this Agreement that shall eliminate the need for post-billing
     reconciliation. Appropriate terms for access to any BellSouth documents,
     systems, records, and procedures for the recording and billing of charges
     shall be part of that program.

2.2  As part of the billing quality assurance program, BellSouth and
     ITC/\DeltaCom will develop standards, measurements, and performance
     requirements for a local billing measurements process. On a regular basis
     the billing party will provide the other party with mutually agreed upon
     performance measurement data that substantiates the accuracy, reliability,
     and integrity of the billing process for local billing. In return, each
     party shall pay all bills received from the other party in full by the
     payment due date.

2.3  Local billing discrepancies will be addressed in an orderly manner via a
     mutually agreed upon billing exemption process.

     2.3.1    Each party agrees to notify the other Party upon identifying a
              billing discrepancy. The Parties shall endeavor to resolve any
              billing discrepancy within sixty (60) calendar days of the
              notification date. A mutually agreed upon escalation process shall
              be established for resolving local billing discrepancies as part
              of the billing quality assurance program.

     2.3.2    Closure of a specific billing period shall occur by joint
              agreement of the Parties whereby the Parties agree that such
              billing period is closed to any further analysis and financial
              transactions except those resulting from regulatory mandates.
              Closure will take place
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 7
                                                                          PAGE 5

              within a mutually agreed upon time interval from the Bill Date.
              The month being closed represents those charges that were billed
              or should have been billed by the designated Bill Date.

3.   BILLING DISPUTES

3.1  Where the parties have not agreed upon a billing quality assurance program,
     billing disputes shall be handled pursuant to the terms of this section.
     Provided, that nothing herein shall preclude either party from filing
     complaints, at any time, in accordance with the dispute resolution
     provisions included in the General Terms and Conditions to the Agreement.

3.2  Each Party agrees to notify the other Party upon the discovery of a billing
     dispute. In the event of a billing dispute, the Parties will endeavor to
     resolve the dispute within sixty (60) calendar days of the Bill Date on
     which such disputed charges appear. Resolution of the dispute is expected
     to occur at the first level of management resulting in a recommendation for
     settlement of the dispute and closure of a specific billing period. If the
     issues are not resolved within the allotted time frame, the following
     resolution procedure will begin.

3.3  If the dispute is not resolved within sixty (60) days of the Bill Date, the
     dispute will be escalated to the second level of management for each of the
     respective Parties for resolution. If the dispute is not resolved within
     ninety (90) days of the Bill Date, the dispute will be escalated to the
     third level of management for each of the respective Parties for
     resolution.

     If the dispute is not resolved within one hundred and twenty (120) days of
     the Bill Date, the dispute will be escalated to the fourth level of
     management for each of the respective Parties for resolution.

3.4  If a Party disputes a charge and does not pay such charge by the payment
     due date, such charges shall be subject to late payment charges as set
     forth in the Late Payment Charges provision of this Attachment. If a Party
     disputes charges and the dispute is resolved in favor of such Party, the
     other Party shall credit the bill of the disputing Party for the amount of
     the disputed charges along with any late payment charges assessed no later
     than the second Bill Date after the resolution of the dispute. Accordingly,
     if a Party disputes charges and the dispute is resolved in favor of the
     other Party, the disputing Party shall pay the other Party the amount of
     the disputed charges and any associated late payment charges assessed no
     later than the second bill payment due date after the resolution of the
     dispute. In no event, however, shall any late payment charges be assessed
     on any previously assessed late payment charges.

4.   RAO HOSTING

4.1  RAO Hosting, Credit Card and Third Number Settlement System (CATS) and
     Non-Intercompany Settlement System (NICS) services provided to
     ITC/\DeltaCom by BellSouth will be in accordance with the methods and
     practices regularly adopted and applied by BellSouth to its own operations
     during the term of this Agreement, including such revisions as may be made
     from time to time by BellSouth.

4.2  ITC/\DeltaCom shall furnish all relevant information required by BellSouth
     for the provision of RAO Hosting, CATS and NICS.

4.3  Applicable compensation amounts will be billed by BellSouth to
     ITC/\DeltaCom on a monthly basis in arrears. Amounts due from one Party to
     the other (excluding adjustments) are payable within thirty (30) days of
     receipt of the billing statement.

4.4  ITC/\DeltaCom must have its own unique RAO code. Requests for establishment
     of RAO status where BellSouth is the selected CMDS interfacing host,
     require written notification from ITC/\DeltaCom to the BellSouth RAO
     Hosting coordinator at least eight (8) weeks prior to the proposed
     effective date. The proposed effective date will be mutually agreed upon
     between the Parties with consideration given to time necessary for the
     completion of required BellCore functions. BellSouth will request the
     assignment of an RAO code from its connecting contractor on behalf of
     ITC/\DeltaCom and will coordinate all associated conversion activities.

4.5  BellSouth will receive messages from ITC/\DeltaCom that are to be processed
     by BellSouth, another LEC or CLEC in the BellSouth region or a LEC outside
     the BellSouth region.

4.6  BellSouth will perform invoice sequence checking, standard EMI format
     editing, and balancing of message data with the EMI trailer record counts
     on all data received from ITC/\DeltaCom.

4.7  All data received from ITC/\DeltaCom that is to be processed or billed by
     another LEC or CLEC within the BellSouth region will be distributed to that
     LEC or CLEC in accordance with the agreement(s) which may be in effect
     between BellSouth and the involved LEC or CLEC.

4.8  All data received from ITC/\DeltaCom that is to be placed on the CMDS
     network for distribution outside the BellSouth region will be handled in
     accordance with the agreement(s) which may be in effect between BellSouth
     and its connecting contractor.
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 7
                                                                          PAGE 7

4.9  BellSouth will receive messages from the CMDS network that are destined to
     be processed by ITC/\DeltaCom and will forward them to ITC/\DeltaCom on a
     daily basis.

4.10 Transmission of message data between BellSouth and ITC/\ DeltaCom will be
     via CONNECT DIRECT.

4.11 All messages and related data exchanged between BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom
     will be formatted in accordance with accepted industry standards for EMI
     formatted records and packed between appropriate EMI header and trailer
     records, also in accordance with accepted industry standards.

4.12 ITC/\DeltaCom will ensure that the recorded message detail necessary to
     recreate files provided to BellSouth will be maintained for back-up
     purposes for a period of three (3) calendar months beyond the related
     message dates.

4.13 Should it become necessary for ITC/\DeltaCom to send data to BellSouth more
     than sixty (60) days past the message date(s), ITC/\DeltaCom will notify
     BellSouth in advance of the transmission of the data. If there will be
     impacts outside the BellSouth region, BellSouth will work with its
     connecting contractor and ITC/\DeltaCom to notify all affected Parties.

4.14 In the event that data to be exchanged between the two Parties should
     become lost or destroyed, both Parties shall work together to determine the
     source of the problem. Once the cause of the problem has been jointly
     determined and the responsible Party (BellSouth or ITC/\DeltaCom)
     identified and agreed to, the company responsible for creating the data
     (BellSouth or ITC/\DeltaCom) shall make every effort to have the affected
     data restored and retransmitted. If the data cannot be retrieved, the
     responsible Party will be liable to the other Party for any resulting lost
     revenue. Lost revenue may be a combination of revenues that could not be
     billed to the end users and associated access revenues. Both Parties will
     work together to estimate the revenue amount based upon a reasonable
     estimate of three to twelve months of prior usage. The resulting estimated
     revenue loss will be paid by the responsible Party to the other Party
     within three (3) calendar months of the date of problem resolution, or as
     mutually agreed upon by the Parties. If access usage data is not processed
     and delivered by either Party in a timely manner such that the other Party
     is unable to bill the IXC, the responsible Party shall be liable for the
     amount of lost revenue. The Parties agree that the term "timely manner" as
     used herein shall be defined in accordance with OBF guidelines. Until such
     time as OBF addresses this issue, the term "timely manner" shall be
     reasonably determined on a case by case basis.
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 7
                                                                          PAGE 8

4.15 Should an error be detected by the EMI format edits performed by BellSouth
     on data received from ITC/\DeltaCom, the entire pack containing the
     affected data will not be processed by BellSouth. BellSouth will notify
     ITC/\DeltaCom of the error condition. ITC/\DeltaCom will correct the
     error(s) and will resend the entire pack to BellSouth for processing. In
     the event that an out-of-sequence condition occurs on subsequent packs,
     ITC/\DeltaCom will resend these packs to BellSouth after the pack
     containing the error has been successfully reprocessed by BellSouth. Both
     Parties agree to provide the other Party notification of any discovered
     errors within 7 business days of the discovery.

4.16 In association with message distribution service, BellSouth will provide
     ITC/\DeltaCom with associated intercompany settlements reports (CATS and
     NICS) as appropriate.

4.17 Other than as specified in Section 4.14 and 4.15 above, in no case shall
     either Party be liable to the other for any direct or consequential damages
     incurred as a result of the obligations set out in this agreement.

4.18 RAO COMPENSATION

     4.18.1   Rates for message distribution service provided by BellSouth for
              ITC/\DeltaCom are as set forth in Attachment 11 of this Agreement.

     4.18.2   Rates for data transmission associated with message distribution
              service are as set forth in Attachment 11 of this Agreement.

     4.18.3   Data circuits (private line or dial-up) will be required between
              BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom for the purpose of data transmission.
              Where a dedicated line is required, ITC/\DeltaCom will be
              responsible for ordering the circuit, overseeing its installation
              and coordinating the installation with BellSouth. ITC/\DeltaCom
              will also be responsible for any charges associated with this
              line. Equipment required on the BellSouth end to attach the line
              to the mainframe computer and to transmit successfully ongoing
              will be negotiated on a case by case basis. Where a dial-up
              facility is required, dial circuits will be installed in the
              BellSouth data center by BellSouth and the associated charges
              assessed to ITC/\DeltaCom. Additionally, all message toll charges
              associated with the use of the dial circuit by ITC/\DeltaCom will
              be the responsibility of ITC/\DeltaCom. Associated equipment on
              the BellSouth end, including a modem, will be negotiated on a case
              by case basis between the Parties.

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 7
                                                                          PAGE 9

     4.18.4   All equipment, including modems and software, that is required on
              the ITC/\DeltaCom end for the purpose of data transmission will be
              the responsibility of ITC/\DeltaCom.

4.19 INTERCOMPANY SETTLEMENTS MESSAGES

     4.19.1   This Section addresses the settlement of revenues associated with
              traffic originated from or billed by ITC/\DeltaCom as a facilities
              based provider of local exchange telecommunications services
              outside the BellSouth region. Only traffic that originates in one
              company's operating territory and bills in another company's
              operating territory is included. Traffic that originates and bills
              within the same company's operating territory will be settled on a
              local basis between ITC/\DeltaCom and the involved company(ies),
              unless that company is participating in NICS.

     4.19.2   Both traffic that originates outside the BellSouth region by
              ITC/\DeltaCom and is billed within the BellSouth region, and
              traffic that originates within the BellSouth region and is billed
              outside the BellSouth region by ITC/\DeltaCom, is covered by this
              Agreement (CATS). Also covered is traffic that either is
              originated by or billed by ITC/\DeltaCom, involves a company other
              than ITC/\DeltaCom, qualifies for inclusion in the CATS
              settlement, and is not originated or billed within the BellSouth
              region (NICS).

     4.19.3   Revenues associated with calls originated and billed within the

                       between BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom for the purpose of
                       data transmission. Where a dedicated line is required,
                       ITC/\DeltaCom will be responsible for ordering the
                       circuit, overseeing its installation and coordinating the
                       installation with BellSouth. ITC/\DeltaCom will also be
                       responsible for any charges associated with this line.
                       Equipment required on the BellSouth end to attach the
                       line to the mainframe computer and to transmit
                       successfully ongoing will be negotiated on a case by case
                       basis. Where a dial-up facility is required, dial
                       circuits will be installed in the BellSouth data center
                       by BellSouth and the associated charges assessed to
                       ITC/\DeltaCom. Additionally, all message toll charges
                       associated with the use of the dial circuit by
                       ITC/\DeltaCom will be the responsibility of
                       ITC/\DeltaCom. Associated equipment on the BellSouth end,
                       including a modem, will be negotiated on a case by case
                       basis between the parties. All equipment, including
                       modems and software, that is required on the
                       ITC/\DeltaCom end for the purpose of data transmission

                       day of rejected packs (via the mutually agreed medium).
                       Packs could be rejected because of pack sequencing
                       discrepancies or a critical edit failure on the Pack
                       Header or Pack Trailer records (i.e. out-of-balance
                       condition on grand totals, invalid data populated).
                       Standard ATIS EMI Error Codes will be used. ITC/\DeltaCom
                       will not be required to return the actual rejected data
                       to BellSouth. Rejected packs will be corrected and
                       retransmitted to ITC/\DeltaCom by BellSouth.

          5.6.5 CONTROL DATA

               ITC/\DeltaCom will send one confirmation record per pack that is
               received from BellSouth. This confirmation record will indicate
               ITC/\DeltaCom received the pack and the acceptance or rejection
               of the pack. Pack Status Code(s) will be populated using standard
               ATIS EMI error codes for packs that were rejected by
               ITC/\DeltaCom for reasons stated in the above section.

          with ITC/\DeltaCom to determine the source of the errors and the
          appropriate resolution.

3.   USAGE TO BE TRANSMITTED

     3.1  The following messages recorded by BellSouth will be transmitted to
          ITC/\DeltaCom:

          - Interstate access records associated with an unbundled port
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 7
                                                                         PAGE 17

          - Intrastate access records associated with an unbundled port

          - Undetermined jurisdiction access records associated with an
            unbundled port

     3.2  When ITC/\DeltaCom purchases Network Element ports from BellSouth and
          calls are made using these ports, BellSouth will handle the calls as
          follows:

          Originating from Network Element and carried by Interexchange Carrier:

               BellSouth will bill network element to CLEC and send access
               record to the CLEC via ADUF

          Originating from network element and carried by BellSouth
          (ITC/\DeltaCom is BellSouth's toll customer):

               BellSouth will bill resale toll rates to ITC/\DeltaCom and send
               toll record for the end user toll billing purposes via ODUF
               (Optional Daily Usage File). Access record will be sent to
               ITC/\DeltaCom via ADUF.

          Terminating on network element and carried by Interexchange Carrier:

               BellSouth will bill network element to ITC/\DeltaCom and send
               access record to ITC/\DeltaCom.

          Terminating on network element and carried by BellSouth:

          BellSouth will bill network element to ITC/\DeltaCom and send access
          record to ITC/\DeltaCom.

     3.3  BellSouth will perform duplicate record checks on records processed to
          the Access Daily Usage File. Any duplicate messages detected will be
          dropped and not sent to ITC/\DeltaCom.

     3.4  In the event that ITC/\DeltaCom detects a duplicate on the Access
          Daily Usage File they receive from BellSouth, ITC/\DeltaCom will drop
          the duplicate message (ITC/\DeltaCom shall not return the duplicate to
          BellSouth).

                                                                         PAGE 18

4.   FILE CHARACTERISTICS AND TRANSMISSION METHOD

     4.1  The Access Daily Usage Feed will be distributed to ITC/\DeltaCom via
          an agreed upon medium with CONNECT:Direct being the preferred
          transport method. The Access Daily Usage Feed will be a fixed block
          format (2476) with an LRECL of 2472. The data on the Access Daily
          Usage Feed will be in a non-compacted EMI format (210 byte format plus
          modules). It will be created on a daily basis (Monday through Friday
          except holidays). Details such as dataset name and delivery schedule
          will be addressed during negotiations of the distribution medium.
          There will be one dataset per workday per OCN.

     4.2  Data circuits (private line or dial-up) may be required between
          BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom for the purpose of data transmission.
          Where a dedicated line is required, ITC/\DeltaCom will be responsible
          for ordering the circuit, overseeing its installation and coordinating
          the installation with BellSouth. ITC/\DeltaCom will also be
          responsible for any charges associated with this line. Equipment
          required on the BellSouth end to attach the line to the mainframe
          computer and to transmit successfully ongoing will be negotiated on a
          case by case basis. Where a dial-up facility is required, dial
          circuits will be installed in the BellSouth data center by BellSouth
          and the associated charges assessed to ITC/\DeltaCom. Additionally,
          all message toll charges associated with the use of the dial circuit
          by ITC/\DeltaCom will be the responsibility of ITC/\DeltaCom.
          Associated equipment on the BellSouth end, including a modem, will be
          negotiated on a case by case basis between the parties. All equipment,
          including modems and software, that is required on ITC/\DeltaCom's end
          for the purpose of data transmission will be the responsibility of
          ITC/\DeltaCom.

5.   PACKING SPECIFICATIONS

     5.1  A pack will contain a minimum of one message record or a maximum of
          99,999 message records plus a pack header record and a pack trailer
          record. One transmission can contain a maximum of 99 packs and a
          minimum of one pack.

     5.2  The OCN, From RAO, and Invoice Number will control the invoice
          sequencing. The From RAO will be used to identify to ITC/\DeltaCom
          which BellSouth RAO that is sending the message. BellSouth and
          ITC/\DeltaCom will use the invoice sequencing to control data
          exchange. BellSouth will be notified of sequence failures identified
          by ITC/\DeltaCom and resend the data as appropriate.

          The data will be packed using EMI records.

6.   PACK REJECTION

     6.1  ITC/\DeltaCom will notify BellSouth within one business day of
          rejected packs (via the mutually agreed medium). Packs could be
          rejected because of pack sequencing discrepancies or a critical edit
          failure on the Pack Header or Pack Trailer records (i.e. out-of-
          balance condition on grand totals, invalid data populated).
          ITC/\DeltaCom will not be required to return the actual rejected data
          to BellSouth. Rejected packs will be corrected and/or retransmitted to
          ITC/\DeltaCom by BellSouth.

7.       CONTROL DATA

     7.1  ITC/\DeltaCom will send one confirmation record per pack that is
          received from BellSouth. This confirmation record will indicate
          ITC/\DeltaCom received the pack and the acceptance or rejection of the
          pack. Pack status Code(s) will be populated using standard Bellcore
          EMI codes for packs that were rejected by ITC/\DeltaCom for reasons
          stated in the above section.

8.       TESTING

     8.1  Upon request from ITC/\DeltaCom, BellSouth shall send test file(s) to
          ITC/\DeltaCom for the Access Daily Usage File. The parties agree to
          review and discuss the file's content or format.

                 BONA FIDE REQUEST/NEW BUSINESS REQUEST PROCESS

1.0      The Parties agree that ITC/\DeltaCom is entitled to order any network
         element, interconnection option, service option or other Resale service
         required to be made available by the Telecommunications Act of 1996,
         FCC requirements or State Commission requirements. Procedures
         applicable to requesting the addition of such facilities or service
         options are specified in this Attachment 9 and referenced in Section 5
         of the General Terms and Conditions.

2.0      Bona Fide Requests ("BFR") are to be used when ITC/\DeltaCom makes a
         request of BellSouth to provide a new or modified network element,
         interconnection option, or other service option pursuant to the Act; or
         to provide a new or custom capability or function to meet
         ITC/\DeltaCom's business needs; that were not previously included in
         the Agreement. The BFR process is intended to facilitate the two way
         exchange of information between the requesting Party and BellSouth,
         necessary for accurate processing of requests in a consistent and
         timely fashion.

3.0      A Bona Fide Request shall be submitted in writing by ITC/\DeltaCom and
         shall specifically identify the required service date, technical
         requirements, space requirements and/or such specifications that
         clearly define the request such that BellSouth has sufficient
         information to analyze and prepare a response. Such a request also
         shall include a ITC/\DeltaCom's designation of the request as being (i)
         pursuant to the Telecommunications Act of 1996 or (ii) pursuant to the
         needs of the business. The request shall be sent to ITC/\DeltaCom's
         Account Executive.

4.0      ITC/\DeltaCom may cancel a BFR at any time. If ITC/\DeltaCom cancels
         the request more than thirty (30) business days after submitting it,
         ITC/\DeltaCom shall pay BellSouth's reasonable and demonstrable costs
         of processing and/or implementing the BFR up to the date of
         cancellation. If ITC/\DeltaCom does not cancel a BFR, ITC/\DeltaCom
         shall pay BellSouth's reasonable and demonstrable costs of processing
         and implementing the request.

5.0      Within twenty (20) Business Days of its receipt of a BFR from
         ITC/\DeltaCom, BellSouth shall respond via email or overnight delivery
         to ITC/\DeltaCom by providing a preliminary analysis of such
         Interconnection, Network Element, or requested level of quality thereof
         that is the subject of the BFR. The preliminary analysis shall confirm
         that BellSouth will either offer access to the Interconnection, Network
         Element, or requested level of quality or provide an explanation of why
         it is not technically feasible and/or why the request does not qualify
         as an Interconnection, Network Element, or requested level of quality
         that is required to be provided under the Act. If BellSouth determines
         that the Interconnection, Network Element, or requested level of
         quality that is
<PAGE>

                                                                    ATTACHMENT 9
                                                                          PAGE 2

         the subject of the BFR is technically feasible, BellSouth shall provide
         to ITC/\DeltaCom a high level cost estimate and detailed development
         price quote.

6.0      Within twenty (20) business days after receipt and acceptance of
         preliminary business analysis, BellSouth shall propose a firm price and
         a detailed implementation plan via email or overnight delivery.

7.0      Within twenty (20) business days after its receipt of the BFR price
         quote and implementation plan from BellSouth, ITC/\DeltaCom must either
         confirm its order for such Interconnection or Network Element or, if it
         believes such quote is not consistent with the requirements of the
         Communications Act, may seek Commission arbitration of its request or
         file a complaint with the FCC, as appropriate. Any such arbitration
         applicable to Network Elements and/or Interconnection shall be
         conducted in accordance with standards prescribed in Section 252 of the
         Act.

8.0      All prices shall be consistent with the pricing principles of the Act,
         the FCC and the Supreme Court's ruling of January 25, 1999 upholding
         the FCC pricing rules.

9.0      If either Party to a BFR believes that the other Party is not
         requesting, negotiating or processing the Bona Fide Request in good
         faith, or disputes a determination, or price or cost quote, such Party
         may seek state Commission or FCC resolution of the dispute as
         appropriate.

10.      Upon agreement to the terms of a BFR, an amendment to the Agreement may
         be required. Pursuant to Sections 5.3 and 16 of the General Terms and
         Conditions, ITC/\DeltaCom may adopt through another Company's Agreement
         any BFR provided to any other carrier.

4.       ENFORCEMENT MECHANISMS

4.1      PURPOSE

         This section establishes meaningful and significant enforcement
         mechanisms voluntarily provided by BellSouth to verify and maintain
         compliance between BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom's operations as well as
         to maintain access to Operational Support System (OSS) functions. This
         section provides the terms and conditions for such self-effectuating
         enforcement mechanisms.

4.2      EFFECTIVE DATE

         The enforcement mechanisms set forth in this section shall only become
         effective upon an effective FCC order, which has not been stayed,
         authorizing BellSouth to provide interLATA telecommunications services
         under section 271 of the Act within a particular state and shall only
         apply
<PAGE>

                                                                   Attachment 10
                                                                          Page 5

         to BellSouth's performance in any state in which the FCC has granted
         BellSouth interLATA authority.

4.3      DEFINITIONS

4.3.1    ENFORCEMENT MEASUREMENT ELEMENTS means the performance measurements set
         forth in Exhibit B, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this
         reference.

4.3.2    ENFORCEMENT MEASUREMENT BENCHMARK means a competitive level of
         performance negotiated by BellSouth used to compare the performance of
         BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom where no analogous process, product or
         service is feasible. See Exhibit B.

4.3.3    ENFORCEMENT MEASUREMENT COMPLIANCE means comparing performance levels
         provided to BellSouth retail customers with performance levels provided
         by BellSouth to the CLEC customer, as set forth in Exhibit C, attached
         hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.

4.3.4    TEST STATISTIC AND BALANCING CRITICAL VALUE is the means by which
         enforcement will be determine using statistically valid equations. See
         Exhibit C.

4.3.5    CELL is the point (below the wire center level) at which like-to-like
         comparisons are made. For example, all BellSouth retail POTS services,
         for residential customers, requiring a dispatch in a particular wire
         center, at a particular point in time will be compared directly to
         ITC/\DeltaCom resold services for residential customers, requiring a
         dispatch, in the same wire center, at a particular point in time. When
         determining compliance, these cells can have a positive or negative
         value. See Exhibit C.

4.3.6    AFFECTED VOLUME means that proportion of the total ITC/\DeltaCom volume
         or CLEC Aggregate volume for which remedies will be paid.

4.3.7    PARITY GAP refers to the incremental departure from a compliant-level
         of service. (See Exhibit D). This is also referred to as "diff" in the
         Statistical paper (See Exhibit C).

4.3.8    TIER-1 ENFORCEMENT MECHANISMS means self-executing liquidated damages
         paid directly to ITC/\DeltaCom when BellSouth delivers non-compliant
         performance of any one of the Enforcement Measurement Elements for any
         month as calculated by BellSouth.

4.3.9    TIER-2 ENFORCEMENT MECHANISMS means Assessments paid directly to a
         state Public Service Commission ("Commission") or its designee. Tier 2
         Enforcement Mechanisms are triggered by three consecutive monthly
         failures in a quarter in which BellSouth performance is out of
         compliance

                                                                   Attachment 10
                                                                          Page 6

         or does not meet the benchmarks for the aggregate of all CLEC data as
         calculated by BellSouth for a particular Enforcement Measurement
         Element.

4.3.10   TIER-3 ENFORCEMENT MECHANISMS means the voluntary suspension of
         additional marketing and sales of long distance services triggered by
         excessive repeat failures of those specific submeasures as defined in
         Exhibit D attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.

4.4      APPLICATION

4.4.1    The application of the Tier-1, Tier-2, and Tier-3 Enforcement
         Mechanisms does not foreclose other non-contractual legal and
         regulatory claims and remedies available to ITC/\DeltaCom.

4.4.2    Proof of damages resulting from BellSouth's failure to maintain
         Enforcement Measurement Compliance would be difficult to ascertain and,
         therefore, liquidated damages are a reasonable approximation of any
         contractual damage. Liquidated damages under this provision are not
         intended to be a penalty.

4.5      METHODOLOGY

4.5.1    Tier-1 Enforcement Mechanisms will be triggered by BellSouth's failure
         to achieve Enforcement Measurement Compliance or Enforcement
         Measurement Benchmarks for the State for a given Enforcement
         Measurement Element in a given month based upon a test statistic and
         balancing critical value calculated by BellSouth utilizing BellSouth
         generated data. The method of calculation is attached hereto as Exhibit
         D and incorporated herein by this reference.

4.5.1.1  Tier-1 Enforcement Mechanisms apply on a per transaction basis for each
         negative cell and will escalate based upon the number of consecutive
         months that BellSouth has reported non-compliance.

4.5.1.2  Fee Schedule for Tier-1 Enforcement Mechanisms is shown in Table-1
         attached hereto as Exhibit E and incorporated herein by this reference.
         Failures beyond Month 6 (as set forth in Table 1) will be subject to
         Month 6 fees.

4.5.2    Tier-2 Enforcement Mechanisms will be triggered by BellSouth's failure
         to achieve Enforcement Measurement Compliance or Enforcement
         Measurement Benchmarks for the State in a given calendar quarter based
         upon a statistically valid equation calculated by BellSouth utilizing
         BellSouth generated data. The method of calculation is attached hereto
         as Exhibit D and incorporated herein by reference.

                                                                   Attachment 10
                                                                          Page 7

4.5.2.1  Tier- 2 Enforcement Mechanisms apply, for an aggregate of all CLEC data
         generated by BellSouth, on a per transaction basis for each negative
         cell for a particular Enforcement Measurement Element.

4.5.2.2  Fee Schedule for Total Quarterly Tier-2 Enforcement Mechanisms is show
         in Table-2 attached hereto as Exhibit E and incorporated herein by this
         reference.

4.5.3    Tier-3 Enforcement Mechanisms will be triggered by BellSouth's failure
         to achieve Enforcement Measurement Compliance or Enforcement
         Measurement Benchmarks for a State in a given calendar quarter. The
         method of calculation for specified submeasures is identical to the
         method of calculation for Tier-2 Enforcement Mechanisms as described
         above. The specific submeasures which are the mechanism for triggering
         and removing a Tier-3 Enforcement Mechanisms are described in more
         detail in Exhibit D attached hereto and incorporated herein by this
         reference.

4.6      PAYMENT OF TIER-1 AND TIER-2 AMOUNTS

4.6.1    If BellSouth performance triggers an obligation to pay Tier-1
         Enforcement Mechanisms to ITC/\DeltaCom or an obligation to remit Tier-
         2 Enforcement Mechanisms to the Commission, BellSouth shall make
         payment in the required amount on or before the thirtieth (30th ) day
         following the due date of the performance measurement report for the
         month in which the obligation arose.

4.6.2    For each day after the due date that BellSouth fails to pay
         ITC/\DeltaCom the required amount, BellSouth will pay interest to
         ITC/\DeltaCom at the maximum rate permitted by state law.

4.6.3    For each day after the due date that BellSouth fails to pay the Tier-2
         Enforcement Mechanisms, BellSouth will pay the Commission an additional
         $1,000 per day.

4.6.4    If ITC/\DeltaCom disputes the amount paid to ITC/\DeltaCom for Tier-1
         Enforcement Mechanisms, ITC/\DeltaCom shall submit a written claim to
         BellSouth within sixty (60) days after the date of the performance
         measurement report for which the obligation arose. BellSouth shall
         investigate all claims and provide ITC/\DeltaCom written findings
         within thirty (30) days after receipt of the claim. If BellSouth
         determines ITC/\DeltaCom is owed additional amounts, BellSouth shall
         pay ITC/\DeltaCom such additional amounts within thirty (30) days after
         its findings along with interest paid at the maximum rate permitted by
         law.

                                                                          Page 8

4.6.5    At the end of each calendar year, BellSouth will have its independent
         auditing and accounting firm certify that the results of all Tier-1 and
         Tier-2 Enforcement Mechanisms were paid and accounted for in accordance
         with Generally Accepted Account Principles (GAAP).

4.7      LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

4.7.1    BellSouth will not be responsible for ITC/\DeltaCom acts or omissions
         that cause performance measures to be missed or fail, including but not
         limited to accumulation and submission of orders at unreasonable
         quantities or times or failure to submit accurate orders or inquiries.
         BellSouth shall provide ITC/\DeltaCom with reasonable notice of such
         acts or omissions and provide ITC/\DeltaCom any such supporting
         documentation.

4.7.2    BellSouth shall not be obligated for Tier-1, Tier-2 or Tier 3
         Enforcement Mechanisms for non-compliance with a performance measure if
         such non-compliance was the result of an act or omission by
         ITC/\DeltaCom that is in bad faith.

4.7.3    BellSouth shall not be obligated to pay Tier-1 Enforcement Mechanisms
         or Tier-2 Enforcement Mechanism for non-compliance with a performance
         measurement if such non-compliance was the result of any of the
         following: a Force Majeure event as set forth in the General Terms and
         Conditions of this Agreement; an act or omission by ITC/\DeltaCom that
         is contrary to any of its obligations under its Interconnection
         Agreement with BellSouth; an act or omission by ITC/\DeltaCom that is
         contrary to any of its obligations under the Act, Commission rule, or
         state law; an act or omission associated with third-party systems or
         equipment; or any occurrence that results from an incident reasonably
         related to the Y2K problem.

4.7.4    It is not the intent of the Parties that BellSouth be liable for both
         Tier-2 Enforcement Mechanisms and any other assessments or sanctions
         imposed by the Commission. ITC/\DeltaCom will not oppose any effort by
         BellSouth to set off Tier-2 Enforcement Mechanisms from any additional
         assessment imposed by the Commission.

4.7.5    Payment of any Tier-1 or Tier-2 Enforcement Mechanisms shall not be
         considered as an admission against interest or an admission of
         liability or culpability in any legal, regulatory or other proceeding
         relating to BellSouth's performance. The payment of any Tier-1
         Enforcement Mechanisms to ITC/\DeltaCom shall release BellSouth for any
         liability associated with or related to the service performance
         measurement for the month for which the Enforcement Mechanisms was paid
         to ITC/\DeltaCom.

4.7.6    ITC/\DeltaCom acknowledges and argues that the Enforcement Mechanisms
         contained in this attachment have been provided by BellSouth on a
         completely voluntary basis in order to maintain compliance between
         BellSouth and ITC/\DeltaCom. Therefore, ITC/\DeltaCom may not use the
         existence of this section or any payments of any Tier-1 or Tier-2
         Enforcement Mechanisms under this section as evidence that BellSouth
         has not complied with or has violated any state or federal law or
         regulation.

4.8      ENFORCEMENT MECHANISM CAPS

4.8.1    BellSouth's liability for the payment of Tier-1 and Tier-2 Enforcement
         Mechanisms shall be collectively capped at $625M per year for the
         entire BellSouth region as set forth below.

                  ---------------------------------------------------

4.8.2    If BellSouth's liability for the payment of Tier-1 and Tier-2
         Enforcement Mechanisms exceed the caps referenced in this attachment,
         ITC/\DeltaCom may commence a proceeding with the Commission to
         demonstrate why BellSouth should pay any amount in excess of the cap.
         ITC/\DeltaCom shall have the burden of proof to demonstrate why, under
         the circumstances, BellSouth should have additional liability.

4.9      DISPUTE RESOLUTION

   LNP-8. PERCENT REJECTED SERVICE REQUESTS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEFINITION:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Percent Rejected Service Request is the percent of total Local Service
   Requests (LSRs) which are rejected due to error or omission. An LSR is
   considered valid when it is electronically submitted by the CLEC and passes
   LNP Gateway edit checks to insure the data received is correctly formatted
   and complete, i.e., fatal rejects are excluded.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXCLUSIONS:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   o  Service Requests canceled by the CLEC
   o  Fatal Rejects
   o  Order Activities of BST or the CLEC associated with internal or
      administrative use of local services (Record Orders, Test Orders, etc.)
      where identifiable.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUSINESS RULES:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   An LSR is considered "rejected" when it is submitted electronically but does
   not pass edit checks in the ordering systems (EDI, TAG, LNP Gateway, LAUTO)
   and is returned to the CLEC without manual intervention.

   FULLY MECHANIZED: There are two types of "Rejects" in the Fully Mechanized
   category:
   o  A Fatal Reject occurs when a CLEC attempts to electronically submit an
      LSR (via EDI or TAG) but required fields are not populated correctly and
      the request is returned to the CLEC. Fatal rejects are reported in a
      separate column, and for informational purposes ONLY. They are not
      considered in the calculation of the percent of total LSRs rejected or
      the total number of rejected LSRs.
   o  An Auto Clarification is a valid LSR which is electronically submitted
      (via EDI or TAG), but is rejected from LAUTO because it does not pass
      further edit checks for order accuracy. Auto Clarifications are returned
      without manual intervention.

   PARTIALLY MECHANIZED: A valid LSR which is electronically submitted (via EDI
   or TAG), but cannot be processed electronically due to a CLEC error and
   "falls out" for manual handling. It is then put into "clarification", and
   sent back to the CLEC.

REPORT/MEASUREMENT:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   LNP-9. REJECT INTERVAL DISTRIBUTION & AVERAGE REJECT INTERVAL
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEFINITION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Reject Interval is the average reject time from receipt of an LSR to the
   distribution of a Reject. An LSR is considered valid when it is
   electronically submitted by the CLEC and passes LNP Gateway edit checks to
   insure the data received is correctly formatted and complete, i.e., fatal
   rejects are excluded.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXCLUSIONS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   o  Service Requests canceled by CLEC
   o  Fatal Rejects

   o  Order Activities of BST or the CLEC associated with internal or
      administrative use of local services (Record Orders, Test Orders, etc.)
      where identifiable.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUSINESS RULES:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   The Reject interval is determined for each rejected LSR processed during the
   reporting period. The Reject interval is the elapsed time from when BST
   receives LSR until that LSR is rejected back to the CLEC. Elapsed time for
   each LSR is accumulated for each reporting dimension. The accumulated time
   for each reporting dimension is then divided by the associated total number
   of rejected LSRs to produce the reject interval distribution.

      An LSR is considered "rejected" when it is submitted electronically but
      does not pass edit checks in the ordering systems (EDI, TAG, LNP Gateway,
      LAUTO) and is returned to the CLEC without manual intervention.

   FULLY MECHANIZED: There are two types of "Rejects" in the Fully Mechanized
   category:

   o  A Fatal Reject occurs when a CLEC attempts to electronically submit an
      LSR but required fields are not populated correctly and the request is
      returned to the CLEC. FATAL REJECTS ARE REPORTED IN A SEPARATE COLUMN,
      AND FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. THEY ARE NOT CONSIDERED IN THE
      CALCULATION OF THE PERCENT OF TOTAL LSRS REJECTED OR THE NUMBER OF
      REJECTED LSRS.

   o  An Auto Clarification is a valid LSR which is electronically submitted
      (via EDI or TAG), but rejected from LAUTO because it does not pass
      further edit checks for order accuracy. Auto Clarifications are
      returned without manual intervention.

   PARTIALLY MECHANIZED: A valid LSR which is electronically submitted (via EDI
   or TAG), but cannot be processed electronically due to a CLEC error and
   "falls out" for manual handling. It is then put into "clarification", and
   sent back to the CLEC.

   LNP-10. FIRM ORDER CONFIRMATION TIMELINESS INTERVAL DISTRIBUTION & FIRM ORDER
           CONFIRMATION AVERAGE INTERVAL
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEFINITION:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Interval for Return of a Firm Order Confirmation (FOC Interval) is the
   average response time from receipt of a valid LSR to distribution of a firm
   order confirmation.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXCLUSIONS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   o  Rejected LSRs (Clarifications or Fatal Rejects)
   o  Order Activities of BST or the CLEC associated with internal or
      administrative use of local services (Record Orders, Test Orders, etc.)
      where identifiable.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUSINESS RULES:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   The Firm Order Confirmation interval is determined for each FOC'd LSR
   processed during the reporting period. The Firm Order Confirmation interval
   is the elapsed time from when BST receives an LSR until that LSR is
   confirmed back to the CLEC. Elapsed time for each LSR is accumulated for
   each reporting dimension. The accumulated time for each reporting dimension
   is then divided by the associated total number of orders completed to
   produce the Firm Order Confirmation timeliness interval distribution.
   o  MECHANIZED - The elapsed time from receipt of a valid LSR until the LSR
      is processed and appropriate service orders are generated in SOCS without
      manual intervention.
   o  PARTIALLY MECHANIZED - The elapsed time from receipt of an electronically
      submitted LSR which falls out for manual handling by the LCSC personnel
      until appropriate service orders are issued by a BST service
      representative via Direct Order Entry (DOE) or Service Order Negotiation
      Generation System (SONGS).
   o  TOTAL MECHANIZED - Combination of Fully Mechanized and Partially
      Mechanized FOCs.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CALCULATION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   AVERAGE FOC INTERVAL:
      o  [(Date & Time of Firm Order Confirmation) - (Date & Time of Service
         Request Receipt)] / (Total number of Service
         Requests Confirmed in the Reporting Period)
   FOC INTERVAL DISTRIBUTION:
      o  [(Service Requests Confirmed in "X" minutes/hours in the Reporting
         Period) / (Total Service Requests Confirmed in the

   P-1. MEAN HELD ORDER INTERVAL & DISTRIBUTION INTERVALS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEFINITION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   When delays occur in completing CLEC orders, the average period that CLEC
   orders are held for BST reasons, pending a delayed completion, should be no
   worse for the CLEC when compared to BST delayed orders.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXCLUSIONS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Order Activities of BST associated with internal or administrative use of
   local services.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUSINESS RULES:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   MEAN HELD ORDER INTERVAL: This metric is computed at the close of each report
   period. The held order interval is established by first identifying all
   orders, at the close of the reporting interval, that both have not been
   reported as completed in SOCS and have passed the currently committed due
   date for the order. For each such order, the number of calendar days between
   the committed due date and the close of the reporting period is established
   and represents the held order interval for that particular order. The held
   order interval is accumulated by the standard groupings, unless otherwise
   noted, and the reason for the order being held. The total number of days
   accumulated in a category is then divided by the number of held orders within
   the same category to produce the mean held order interval. The interval is by
   calendar days with no exclusions for Holidays or Sundays.

   CLEC Specific reporting is by type of held order (facilities, equipment,
   other), total number of orders held, and the total and average days.

   HELD ORDER DISTRIBUTION INTERVAL:  This measure provides data to report total
   days held and identifies these in categories of >15 days and > 90 days.
   (orders counted in >90 days are also included in >15 days).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CALCULATION:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   MEAN HELD ORDER INTERVAL:
      (SIGMA)(Reporting Period Close Date - Committed Order Due Date) / (Number
      of Orders Pending and Past The Committed Due Date) for all orders pending
      and past the committed due date.
   HELD ORDER DISTRIBUTION INTERVAL:
      (# of Orders Held for =>90 days) / (Total # of Orders Pending But Not
      Completed) X 100
      (# of Orders Held for =>15 days) / (Total # of Orders Pending But Not

   P-3. PERCENT MISSED INSTALLATION APPOINTMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEFINITION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   "Percent missed installation appointments" monitors the reliability of BST
   commitments with respect to committed due dates to assure that CLECs can
   reliably quote expected due dates to their retail customer as compared to
   BST.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXCLUSIONS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   o  Canceled Service Orders
   o  Order Activities of BST or the CLEC associated with internal or
      administrative use of local services (Record Orders, Test Orders, etc.)
   o  Disconnect (D) & From (F) orders
   o  End User Misses on Interconnection Trunks
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUSINESS RULES:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Percent Missed Installation Appointments is the percentage of total orders
   processed for which BST is unable to complete the service orders on the
   confirmed due dates. Missed Appointments caused by end-user reasons will be
   included and reported separately. A business day is any time period within
   the same date frame, which means there cannot be a cutoff time for
   commitments as certain types of orders are requested to be worked after
   standard business hours. Also, during Daylight Savings Time, field
   technicians are scheduled until 9PM in some areas and the customer is offered
   a greater range of intervals from which to select.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CALCULATION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Percent Missed Installation Appointments = (SIGMA) (Number of Orders Not
   Complete by Committed Due Date in Reporting Period) / (Number of Orders
   Confirmed in Reporting Period) X 100

   REPORT EXPLANATION: The difference between End User MA and Total MA is the
   result of BST caused misses. Here, Total MA is the total % of orders missed
   either by BST or CLEC end user. The End User MA represents the percentage of
   orders missed by the CLEC or their end user.

   P-4. AVERAGE COMPLETION INTERVAL (OCI) & ORDER COMPLETION INTERVAL
        DISTRIBUTION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEFINITION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   The "average completion interval" measure monitors the interval of time it
   takes BST to provide service for the CLEC or its' own customers. The "Order
   Completion Interval Distribution" provides the percentage of orders completed
   within certain time periods.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXCLUSIONS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   o  Canceled Service Orders
   o  Order Activities of BST or the CLEC associated with internal or
      administrative use of local services (Record Orders, Test Orders, etc.)
   o  D (Disconnect) and F (From) orders. (From is disconnect side of a move
      order when the customer moves to a new address).
   o  "L" Appointment coded orders (where the customer has requested a later
      than offered interval)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUSINESS RULES:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   The actual completion interval is determined for each order processed during
   the reporting period. The completion interval is the elapsed time from when
   BST issues a FOC or SOCS date time stamp receipt of an order from the CLEC to
   BST's actual order completion date. The clock starts when a valid order
   number is assigned by SOCS and stops when the technician or system completes
   the order in SOCS. Elapsed time for each order is accumulated for each
   reporting dimension. The accumulated time for each reporting dimension is
   then divided by the associated total number of orders completed.

   The interval breakout for UNE and Design is: 0-5 = 0-4.99, 5-10 = 5-9.99,
   10-15 = 10-14.99, 15-20 = 15-19.99 20-25 = 20-24.99, 25-30 = 25-29.99, >=30 =
   30 and greater.

   Measurement of interval of completion date and time by a field technician on
   dispatched orders, and 5PM start time on the due date for non-dispatched
   orders; to the release of a notice to the CLEC/BST of the completion status.
   The field technician notifies the CLEC the work was complete and then he
   enters the completion time stamp information in his computer. This
   information switches through to the SOCS systems either completing the order
   or rejecting the order to the Work Management Center (WMC). If the completion
   is rejected, it is manually corrected and then completed by the WMC. The
   notice is returned on each individual order submitted and as the notice is
   sent electronically, it can only be switched to those orders that were
   submitted by the CLEC electronically. The start time is the completion stamp
   either by the field technician or the 5PM due date stamp; the end time is the
   time stamp the notice was submitted to the CLEC/BST system.

   P-6. COORDINATED CUSTOMER CONVERSIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEFINITION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   This category measures the average time it takes BST to disconnect an
   unbundled loop from the BST switch and cross connect it to a CLEC's
   equipment. This measurement applies to service orders with and without INP,
   and where the CLEC has requested BST to provide a coordinated cutover.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXCLUSIONS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   o  Any order canceled by the CLEC will be excluded from this measurement.
   o  Delays due to CLEC following disconnection of the unbundled loop
   o  Unbundled Loops where there is no existing subscriber loop and loops where
      coordination in not requested.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUSINESS RULES:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Where the service order includes INP, the interval includes the total time
   for the cutover including the translation time to place the line back in
   service on the ported line. The interval is calculated for the entire cutover
   time for the service order and then divided by items worked in that time to
   give the average per item interval for each service order.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CALCULATION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   (SIGMA) [(Completion Date and Time for Cross Connection of an Coordinated
   Unbundled Loop)- (Disconnection Date and Time of an Coordinated Unbundled
   Loop)] / Total Number of Unbundled Loop with Coordinated Conversions (items)
   for the reporting period.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUSINESS RULES:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   The interval is determined for each order processed during the reporting
   period. This measurement combines two reports: FOC (Firm Order Confirmation)
   with Average Order Completion Interval.

   This interval starts with the receipt of a valid service order request and
   stops when the technician or system completes the order in SOCS. Elapsed time
   for each order is accumulated for each reporting dimension. The accumulated
   time for each reporting dimension is then divided by the associated total
   number of orders completed.

   LNP - 10. PERCENT MISSED INSTALLATION APPOINTMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEFINITION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Percent Missed Installation Appointments monitors the reliability of BST
   commitments with respect to committed due dates to assure that CLECs can
   reliably quote expected due dates to their retail customer as compared to
   BST.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXCLUSIONS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   o  Canceled Service Orders
   o  Order Activities of BST or the CLEC associated with internal or
      administrative use of local services (Record Orders, Test Orders, etc.)
      where identifiable.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUSINESS RULES:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Percent Missed Installation Appointments (PMI) is the percentage of total
   orders processed for which BST is unable to complete the service orders on
   the committed due dates. Missed Appointments caused by end-user reasons will
   be included and reported in a separate category. A business day is any time
   period within the same date frame, which means there cannot be a cutoff time
   for commitments as certain types of orders are requested to be worked after
   standard business hours. Also, during Daylight Savings Time, field
   technicians are scheduled until 9PM in some areas and the customer is offered
   a greater range of intervals from which to select.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CALCULATION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   PERCENT MISSED INSTALLATION APPOINTMENTS:

   REPORT EXPLANATION: Total Missed Appointments is the total % of orders missed
   either by BST or the CLEC end user. End User MA represents the percentage of
   orders missed by the CLEC end user. The difference between End User Missed
   Appointments and Total Missed Appointments is the result of BST caused
   misses.

DEFINITION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Disconnect Timeliness is defined as the interval between the time the LNP
   Gateway receives the `Number Ported' message from NPAC (signifying the CLEC
   `Activate') until the time that the Disconnect service order for an LSR is
   completed in SOCS. This interval effectively measures BST responsiveness by
   isolating it from impacts that are caused by CLEC related activities.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXCLUSIONS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   o  Canceled Service Orders
   o  Order Activities of BST or the CLEC associated with internal or
      administrative use of local services  (Record Orders, Test Orders, etc.)
      where identifiable.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUSINESS RULES:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   The Disconnect Timeliness interval is determined for the last Disconnect
   service order processed on an LSR during the reporting period. The Disconnect
   Timeliness interval is the elapsed time from when BST receives the last
   `Number Ported' message for an LSR from NPAC (signifying the CLEC `Activate')
   until the last Disconnect service order is completed in SOCS. Elapsed time
   for each order is accumulated for each reporting dimension. The accumulated
   time for each reporting dimension is then divided by the total number of
   selected disconnect orders which have been completed.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUSINESS RULES:

   The interval is determined for each service request processed during the
   reporting period. This measurement combines two reports: FOC (Firm Order
   Confirmation) with Average Order Completion Interval.

   This interval starts with the receipt of a valid service request and stops
   when the technician or system completes all the related service orders for
   the LSR in SOCS. Elapsed time for each service request is accumulated for
   each reporting dimension. The accumulated time for each reporting dimension
   is then divided by the associated total number of service requests completed

REPORT/MEASUREMENT:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   M&R-1. MISSED REPAIR APPOINTMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEFINITION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   The percent of trouble reports not cleared by the committed date and time.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXCLUSIONS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   o  Trouble tickets canceled at the CLEC request.
   o  BST trouble reports associated with internal or administrative service.
   o  Customer Provided Equipment (CPE) troubles or CLEC Equipment Trouble.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUSINESS RULES:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   The negotiated commitment date and time is established when the repair report
   is received. The cleared time is the date and time that BST personnel clear
   the trouble and closes the trouble report in his Computer Access Terminal
   (CAT) or workstation. If this is after the Commitment time, the report is
   flagged as a "Missed Commitment" or a missed repair appointment. When the
   data for this measure is collected for BST and a CLEC, it can be used to
   compare the percentage of the time repair appointments are missed due to BST
   reasons. Note: Appointment intervals vary with force availability in the POTS
   environment. Specials and Trunk intervals are standard interval appointments
   of no greater than 24 hours.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CALCULATION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Percentage of Missed Repair Appointments =O (Count of Customer Troubles Not
   Cleared by the Quoted Commitment Date and Time) / O (Total Trouble reports
   closed in Reporting Period) X 100

REPORT/MEASUREMENT:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   M&R-2. CUSTOMER TROUBLE REPORT RATE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEFINITION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Initial and repeated customer direct or referred troubles reported within a
   calendar month per 100 lines/ circuits in service.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXCLUSIONS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   o  Trouble tickets canceled at the CLEC request.
   o  BST trouble reports associated with administrative service.
   o  Customer provided Equipment (CPE) troubles or CLEC equipment troubles.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUSINESS RULES:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Customer Trouble Report Rate is computed by accumulating the number of
   maintenance initial and repeated trouble reports during the reporting period.
   The resulting number of trouble reports are divided by the total "number of
   service" lines, ports or combination that exist for the CLEC's and BST
   respectively at the end of the report month.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CALCULATION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Customer Trouble Report Rate = (Count of Initial and Repeated Trouble Reports
   in the Current Period) / (Number of Service Access Lines in service at End of
   the Report Period) X 100

   B-1. INVOICE ACCURACY
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEFINITION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   This measure provides the percentage of accuracy of the billing invoices
   rendered to CLECs during the current month.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXCLUSIONS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   o  Adjustments not related to billing errors (e.g., credits for service
      outage, special promotion credits, adjustments to satisfy the customer)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUSINESS RULES:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   The accuracy of billing invoices delivered by BST to the CLEC must enable
   them to provide a degree of billing accuracy comparative to BST bills
   rendered to retail customers BST. CLECs request adjustments on bills
   determined to be incorrect. The BellSouth Billing verification process
   includes manually analyzing a sample of local bills from each bill period.
   The bill verification process draws from a mix of different customer billing
   options and types of service. An end-to-end auditing process is performed for
   new products and services. Internal measurements and controls are maintained
   on all billing processes.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CALCULATION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   INVOICE ACCURACY = (Total Billed Revenues during current month) - (Billing
   Related Adjustments during current month) / Total Billed Revenues during
   current month X 100

REPORT/MEASUREMENT:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   B-3. USAGE DATA DELIVERY ACCURACY
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEFINITION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   This measurement captures the percentage of recorded usage that is delivered
   error free and in an acceptable format to the appropriate Competitive Local
   Exchange Carrier (CLEC). These percentages will provide the necessary data
   for use as a comparative measurement for BellSouth performance. This
   measurement captures Data Delivery Accuracy rather than the accuracy of the
   individual usage recording.

BUSINESS RULES:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   The accuracy of the data delivery of usage records delivered by BST to the
   CLEC must enable them to provide a degree of accuracy comparative to BST
   bills rendered to their retail customers. If errors are detected in the
   delivery process, they are investigated, evaluated and documented. Errors are
   corrected and the data retransmitted to the CLEC.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CALCULATIONS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   USAGE DATA DELIVERY ACCURACY = O[(Total number of usage data packs sent
   during current month) - (Total number of usage data packs requiring

   OS-1. SPEED TO ANSWER PERFORMANCE/AVERAGE SPEED TO ANSWER - TOLL
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEFINITION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Measurement of the average time in seconds calls wait before answered by a
   toll operator.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXCLUSIONS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Calls abandoned by customers are not reflected in the average speed to answer
   but are reflected in the conversion tables where the percent answered within
   "X" seconds is determined.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUSINESS RULES:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   The call waiting measurement scan starts when the customer enters the queue
   and ends when a BST representative answers the call. The average speed to
   answer is determined by measuring and accumulating the seconds of wait time
   from the entry of a customer into the BST call management system queue until
   the customer is transferred to a BST representative. No distinction is made
   between CLEC customers and BST customers.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CALCULATION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   The Average Speed to Answer for toll is calculated by using data from monthly
   system measurement reports taken from the centralized call routing switches.
   The "total call waiting seconds" is a sub-component of this measure which BST
   systems calculate by monitoring the number of calls in queue throughout the
   day multiplied by the time (in seconds) between monitoring events. The "total
   calls served" is the other sub-component of this measure, which BST systems
   record as the total number of calls handled by Operator Services toll
   centers. Since calls abandoned are not reflected in the calculation, the
   percent answered within the required timeframe is determined by using
   conversion tables with input for the abandonment rate.

   systems calculate by monitoring the number of calls in queue throughout the
   day multiplied by the time (in seconds) between monitoring events. The "total
   calls served" is the other sub-component of this measure, which BST systems
   record as the total number of calls handled by Operator Services DA centers.
   Since calls abandoned are not reflected in the calculation, the percent
   answered within the required timeframe is determined by using conversion
   tables with input for the abandonment rate.

REPORT/MEASUREMENT:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   OS-4. SPEED TO ANSWER PERFORMANCE/PERCENT ANSWERED WITHIN "X" SECONDS -
         DIRECTORY ASSISTANCE (DA)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEFINITION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Measurement of the percent of DA calls that are answered in less than "X"
   seconds. The number of seconds represented by "X" is twenty, except where a
   different regulatory benchmark has been set against the Average Speed to
   Answer by a State Commission.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXCLUSIONS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Calls abandoned by customers are not reflected in the average speed to answer
   but are reflected in the conversion tables where the percent answered within
   "X" seconds is determined.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUSINESS RULES:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   The call waiting measurement scan starts when the customer enters the queue
   and ends when a BST representative answers the call. The average speed to
   answer is determined by measuring and accumulating the seconds of wait time
   from the entry of a customer into the BST call management system queue until
   the customer is transferred to a BST representative. No distinction is made
   between CLEC customers and BST customers.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CALCULATION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   The Percent Answered within "X" Seconds measurement for DA is derived by
   using the BellCore Statistical Answer Conversion Tables, to convert the
   Average Speed to Answer measure into a percent of calls answered within "X"
   seconds. The BellCore Conversion Tables are specific to the defined
   parameters of work time, number of operators, max queue size and call
   abandonment rates.

   The 24-hour processing period is calculated based on the date and time
   processing starts on the batch orders and the date and time processing stops
   on the batch orders. Mechanical processing starts when SCC (BST's E911
   vendor) receives E911 files containing batch orders extracted from BST's
   Service Order Communication System (SOCS). Processing stops when SCC loads
   the individual records to the E911 database. No distinctions are made between
   CLEC resale records and BST retail records.

REPORT/MEASUREMENT:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   TGP-1. TRUNK GROUP PERFORMANCE-AGGREGATE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEFINITION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   A report of aggregate blocking information for CLEC trunk groups and
   BellSouth trunk groups.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXCLUSIONS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   o  Trunk Groups for which valid data is not available for an entire study
      period
   o  Duplicate trunk group information
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUSINESS RULES:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   o  Aggregate blocking results are created using the statistical analysis
      package and are output into Excel with separate table for each geographic
      area.

   o  For each geographic area, plots are generated for: a) the monthly blocking
      by hour for each affecting group (BellSouth or CLEC), and b) the
      difference between BellSouth blocking data and CLEC blocking data is
      calculated and plotted.

   o  The TCBH blocking is calculated by determining the monthly averaging
      blocking for each hour for each trunk. The hour with the highest usage is
      selected as the TCBH and the blocking for that hour is reported.

   o  Trunk Categorization: This report displays, over a reporting cycle,
      aggregate, weighted average blocking data for each hour of a day.
      Therefore, for each reporting cycle, 24 blocking data points are generated
      for two aggregate groups of selected trunk groups. These groups are CLEC
      affecting and BellSouth affecting trunk groups. In order to assign trunk
      groups to each aggregate group, all trunk groups are first assigned to a
      category. A trunk group's end points and the type of traffic that is
      transmitted on it define a category. Selected categories of trunk groups
      are assigned to the aggregate groups to that trunk reports can be
      generated. The categories to which trunk groups have been assigned for
      this report are as follows:

   CLEC AFFECTING CATEGORIES:

                           Point A                     Point B

   o  Aggregate blocking results are created using the statistical analysis
      package and are output into Excel with separate table for each geographic

   o  For each geographic area, plots are generated for the monthly blocking by
      hour

   o  The TCBH blocking is calculated by determining the monthly averaging
      blocking for each hour for each trunk. The hour with the highest usage is
      selected as the TCBH and the blocking for that hour is reported.

   o  Trunk Categorization: This report displays, over a reporting cycle,
      aggregate, weighted average blocking data for each hour of a day.
      Therefore, for each reporting cycle, 24 blocking data points are generated
      for CLEC trunk groups. In order to assign trunk groups to the CLEC group,
      all trunk groups are first assigned to a category. A trunk group's end
      points and the type of traffic that is transmitted on it define a
      category. Selected categories of trunk groups are assigned to the
      aggregate groups to that trunk reports can be generated. The categories to
      which trunk groups have been assigned for this report are as follows:

   The monthly weighted average blocking for hour 1 for a particular trunk group
   is calculated as follows:
   (1X5)+(0.5X5)+(2X4)+(1.5X4)     =     1.2%
   ---------------------------
            (5+5+4+4)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Aggregate Monthly Blocking:
   (Monthly weighted average blocking value for each trunk group) X (number of
   trunks within each trunk group) / O (number of trunks in the aggregate group)

   The purpose of the Trunk Group Performance Report is to provide trunk
   blocking measurements on CLEC and BST trunk groups for comparison only. It is
   not the intent of the report that it be used for network management and/or

   TGP-3. TRUNK GROUP SERVICE REPORT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEFINITION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   A report of the percent blocking above the Measured Blocking Threshold (MBT)
   on all final trunk groups between CLEC Points of Termination and BST end
   offices or tandems.

   Traffic trunking data measurements are validated and processed by the Total
   Network Data System/Trunking (TNDS/TK), a Telcordia (BellCore) supported
   application, on an hourly basis for Average Business Days (Monday through
   Friday). The traffic load sets, including offered load and observed blocking
   ratio (calls blocked divided by calls attempted), are averaged for a 20 day
   period, and the busy hour is selected. The busy hour average data for each
   trunk group is captured for reporting purposes. Although all trunk groups are
   available for reporting, the report highlight those trunk groups with
   blocking greater than the Measured Blocking Threshold (MBT) and the number of
   consecutive monthly reports that the trunk group blocking has exceeded the
   MBT. The MBT for CTTG is 2% and the MBT for all other trunk groups is 3%.

BELLSOUTH'S AUDIT POLICY:

BellSouth currently provides many CLECs with certain audit rights as a part of
their individual interconnection agreements. However, it is not reasonable for
BellSouth to undergo an audit of the SQM for every CLEC with which it has a
contract. BellSouth has developed a proposed Audit Plan for use by the parties
to an audit. If requested by a Public Service Commission or by a CLEC exercising
contractual audit rights, BellSouth will agree to undergo a comprehensive audit
of the aggregate level reports for both BellSouth and the CLEC(s) for each of
the next five (5) years (2000 - 2005), to be conducted by an independent third
party. The results of that audit will be made available to all the parties
subject to proper safeguards to protect proprietary information. This aggregate
level audit includes the following specifications:

     1. The cost shall be borne 50% by BellSouth and 50% by the CLEC or CLECs.

     2. The independent third party auditor shall be selected with input from
     BellSouth, the PSC, if applicable, and the CLEC(s).

     3. BellSouth, the PSC and the CLEC(s) shall jointly determine the scope of
     the audit.

BellSouth reserves the right to make changes to this audit policy as growth and
changes in the industry dictate.

         STATISTICAL METHODS FOR BELLSOUTH PERFORMANCE MEASURE ANALYSIS

I.   NECESSARY PROPERTIES FOR A TEST METHODOLOGY

The statistical process for testing if competing local exchange carriers (CLECs)
customers are being treat equally with BellSouth (BST) customers involves more
than just a mathematical formula. Three key elements need to be considered
before an appropriate decision process can be developed. These are

     o    the type of data,

     o    the type of comparison, and

     o    the type of performance measure.

Once these elements are determined a test methodology should be developed that
complies with the following properties.

     o    LIKE-TO-LIKE COMPARISONS. When possible, data should be compared at
          appropriate levels, e.g. wire center, time of month, dispatched,
          residential, new orders. The testing process should:

          -    Identify variables that may affect the performance measure.

          -    Record these important confounding covariates.

          -    Adjust for the observed covariates in order to remove potential
               biases and to make the CLEC and the ILEC units as comparable as
               possible.

     o    AGGREGATE LEVEL TEST STATISTIC. Each performance measure of interest
          should be summarized by one overall test statistic giving the decision
          maker a rule that determines whether a statistically significant
          difference exists. The test statistic should have the following
          properties.

          -    The method should provide a single overall index, on a standard
               scale.

          -    If entries in comparison cells are exactly proportional over a
               covariate, the aggregated index should be very nearly the same as
               if comparisons on the covariate had not been done.

          -    The contribution of each comparison cell should depend on the
               number of observations in the cell.

          -    Cancellation between comparison cells should be limited.

          -    The index should be a continuous function of the observations.

     o    PRODUCTION MODE PROCESS. The decision system must be developed so that
          it does not require intermediate manual intervention, i.e. the process
          must be a "black box."

          -    Calculations are well defined for possible eventualities.

          -    The decision process is an algorithm that needs no manual
               intervention.

          -    Results should be arrived at in a timely manner.

          -    The system must recognize that resources are needed for other
               performance measure-related processes that also must be run in a
               timely manner.

          -    The system should be auditable, and adjustable over time.

     o    BALANCING. The testing methodology should balance Type I and Type II
          Error probabilities.

          -    P(Type I Error) = P(Type II Error) for well defined null and
               alternative hypotheses.

          -    The formula for a test's balancing critical value should be
               simple enough to calculate using standard mathematical functions,
               i.e. one should avoid methods that require computationally
               intensive techniques.

          -    Little to no information beyond the null hypothesis, the
               alternative hypothesis, and the number of observations should be
               required for calculating the balancing critical value.

In the following sections we describe appropriate testing processes that adhere
as much as possible to the testing principles.

MEASUREMENT TYPES

The performance measures that will undergo testing are of three types:

          1)   means
          2)   proportions, and
          3)   rates

While all three have similar characteristics (a proportion is the average of a
measure that takes on only the values of 0 or 1), a proportion or rate is
derived from count data while a mean is generally an average of interval
measurements.

II.  TESTING METHODOLOGY - THE TRUNCATED Z

Many covariates are chosen in order to provide deep comparison levels. In each
comparison cell, a Z statistic is calculated. The form of the Z statistic may
vary depending on the performance measure, but it should be distributed
approximately as a standard normal, with mean zero and variance equal to one.
Assuming that the test statistic is derived so that it is negative when the
performance for the CLEC is worse than for the ILEC, a positive truncation is
done - i.e. if the result is negative it is left alone, if the result is
positive it is changed to zero. A weighted average of the truncated statistics
is calculated where a cell weight depends on the volume of BST and CLEC orders
in the cell. The weighted average is re-centered by the theoretical mean of a
truncated distribution, and this is divided by the standard error of the
weighted average. The standard error is computed assuming a fixed effects model.

Proportion Measures

     For performance measures that are calculated as a proportion, in each
     adjustment cell, the truncated Z and the moments for the truncated Z can be
     calculated in a direct manner. In adjustment cells where proportions are
     not close to zero or one, and where the sample sizes are reasonably large,
     a normal approximation can be used. In this case, the moments for the
     truncated Z come directly from properties of the standard normal
     distribution. If the normal approximation is not appropriate, then the Z
     statistic is calculated from the hypergeometric distribution. In this case,
     the moments of the truncated Z are calculated exactly using the
     hypergeometric probabilities.

Rate Measures

     The truncated Z methodology for rate measures has the same general
     structure for calculating the Z in each cell as proportion measures. For a
     rate measure, there are a fixed number of circuits or units for the CLEC,
     n2j and a fixed number of units for BST, n1j. Suppose that the performance
     measure is a "trouble rate." The modeling assumption is that the occurrence
     of a trouble is independent between units and the number of troubles in n
     circuits follows a Poisson distribution with mean [OBJECT OMITTED]n where
     [OBJECT OMITTED] is the probability of a trouble in 1 circuit and n is the
     number of circuits.

     In an adjustment cell, if the number of CLEC troubles is greater than 15
     and the number of BST troubles is greater than 15, then the Z test is
     calculated using the normal approximation to the Poisson. In this case, the
     moments of the truncated Z come directly from properties of the standard
     normal distribution. Otherwise, if there are very few troubles, the number
     of CLEC troubles can be modeled using a binomial distribution with n equal
     to the total number of troubles ( CLEC plus BST troubles.) In this case,
     the moments for the truncated Z are calculated explicitly using the
     binomial distribution.

Mean Measures

     For mean measures, an adjusted t statistic is calculated for each
     like-to-like cell which has at least 7 BST and 7 CLEC transactions. A
     permutation test is used when one or both of the BST and CLEC sample sizes
     is less than 6. Both the adjusted t statistic and the permutation
     calculation are described in the technical appendix.

We start by assuming that any necessary trimming of the data is complete, and
that the data are disaggregated so that comparisons are made within appropriate
classes or adjustment cells that define "like" observations.

NOTATION AND EXACT TESTING DISTRIBUTIONS

Below, we have detailed the basic notation for the construction of the truncated
z statistic. In what follows the word "cell" should be taken to mean a
like-to-like comparison cell that has both one (or more) ILEC observation and
one (or more) CLEC observation.

     L = the total number of occupied cells

     j = 1,...,L; an index for the cells

     n1j = the number of ILEC transactions in cell j

     n2j = the number of CLEC transactions in cell j

     nj = the total number transactions in cell j; n1j+ n2j

     X1jk = individual ILEC transactions in cell j; k = 1,..., n1j

     X2jk = individual CLEC transactions in cell j; k = 1,..., n2j

     Yjk = individual transaction (both ILEC and CLEC) in cell j

          [OBJECT OMITTED]

     (PHI)-1() = the inverse of the cumulative standard normal distribution
     function

For Mean Performance Measures the following additional notation is needed.

     [OBJECT OMITTED] = the ILEC sample mean of cell j

     [OBJECT OMITTED] = the CLEC sample mean of cell j

     [OBJECT OMITTED] = the ILEC sample variance in cell j

     [OBJECT OMITTED] = the CLEC sample variance in cell j

     yjk = a random sample of size n2j from the set of [OBJECT OMITTED]; k =
     1,...,n2j

     Mj = the total number of distinct pairs of samples of size n1j and n2j;

          [OBJECT OMITTED]

The exact parity test is the permutation test based on the "modified Z"
statistic. For large samples, we can avoid permutation calculations since this
statistic will be normal (or Student's t) to a good approximation. For small
samples, where we cannot avoid permutation calculations, we have found that the
difference between "modified Z" and the textbook "pooled Z" is negligible. We
therefore propose to use the permutation test based on pooled Z for small
samples. This decision speeds up the permutation computations considerably,
because for each permutation we need only compute the sum of the CLEC sample
values, and not the pooled statistic itself.

A permutation probability mass function distribution for cell j, based on the
"pooled Z" can be written as

and the corresponding cumulative permutation distribution is

          [OBJECT OMITTED].

For Proportion Performance Measures the following notation is defined

     a1j = the number of ILEC cases possessing an attribute of interest in cell
     j

     a2j = the number of CLEC cases possessing an attribute of interest in cell
     j

     aj = the number of cases possessing an attribute of interest in cell j;
     a1j+ a2j

The exact distribution for a parity test is the hypergeometric distribution. The
hypergeometric probability mass function distribution for cell j is

          [OBJECT OMITTED],

and the cumulative hypergeometric distribution is

          [OBJECT OMITTED].

For Rate Measures, the notation needed is defined as

     b1j = the number of ILEC base elements in cell j

     b2j = the number of CLEC base elements in cell j

     bj = the total number of base elements in cell j; b1j+ b2j

     [OBJECT OMITTED] = the ILEC sample rate of cell j; n1j/b1j

     [OBJECT OMITTED] = the CLEC sample rate of cell j; n2j/b2j

     qj = the relative proportion of CLEC elements for cell j; b2j/bj

The exact distribution for a parity test is the binomial distribution. The
binomial probability mass function distribution for cell j is

CALCULATING THE TRUNCATED Z

The general methodology for calculating an aggregate level test statistic is
outlined below.

1.   CALCULATE CELL WEIGHTS, Wj. A weight based on the number of transactions is
     used so that a cell which has a larger number of transactions has a larger
     weight. The actual weight formulae will depend on the type of measure.

          [OBJECT OMITTED]

Proportion Measure

          [OBJECT OMITTED]

Rate Measure

          [OBJECT OMITTED]

2.   IN EACH CELL, CALCULATE A Z VALUE, Zj. A Z statistic with mean 0 and
     variance 1 is needed for each cell.

     o    If Wj = 0, set Zj = 0.

     o    Otherwise, the actual Z statistic calculation depends on the type of
          performance measure.

Mean Measure

               Zj = (PHI)-1((alpha))

     where (alpha) is determine by the following algorithm.

          If min(n1j, n2j) > 6, then determine (alpha) as

                    [OBJECT OMITTED],
<PAGE>

                                                                   Attachment 10
                                                                         Page 92

     that is, (alpha) is the probability that a t random variable with n1j - 1
     degrees of freedom, is less than

                    [OBJECT OMITTED],

     where

                    [OBJECT OMITTED]

     and the coefficient g is an estimate of the skewness of the parent
          population, which we assume is the same in all cells. It can be
          estimated from the ILEC values in the largest cells. This needs to be
          done only once for each measure. We have found that attempting to
          estimate this skewness parameter for each cell separately leads to
          excessive variability in the "adjusted" t. We therefore use a single
          compromise value in all cells.

     Note, that tj is the "modified Z" statistic. The statistic Tj is a
          "modified Z" corrected for the skewness of the ILEC data.

If min(n1j, n2j) (less than)= 6, and

     a)   Mj (less than) = 1,000 (the total number of distinct pairs of samples
          of size n1j and n2j is 1,000 or less).

          o    Calculate the sample sum for all possible samples of size n2j.
          o    Rank the sample sums from smallest to largest. Ties are dealt by
               using average ranks.
          o    Let R0 be the rank of the observed sample sum with respect all
               the sample sums.

                    [OBJECT OMITTED]

     b)   Mj > 1,000

          o    Draw a random sample of 1,000 sample sums from the permutation
               distribution.
          o    Add the observed sample sum to the list. There is a total of 1001
               sample sums. Rank the sample sums from smallest to largest. Ties
               are dealt by using average ranks.
          o    Let R0 be the rank of the observed sample sum with respect all
               the sample sums.

3.   OBTAIN A TRUNCATED Z VALUE FOR EACH CELL, [OBJECT OMITTED]. To limit the
     amount of cancellation that takes place between cell results during
     aggregation, cells whose results suggest possible favoritism are left
     alone. Otherwise the cell statistic is set to zero. This means that
     positive equivalent Z values are set to 0, and negative values are left
     alone. Mathematically, this is written as

                    [OBJECT OMITTED].

     UNDER THE NULL HYPOTHESIS OF PARITY, [OBJECT OMITTED] and [OBJECT OMITTED].
     In order to compensate for the truncation in step 3, an aggregated,
     weighted sum of the [OBJECT OMITTED] will need to be centered and scaled
     properly so that the final aggregate statistic follows a standard normal
     distribution.

          o    If Wj = 0, then no evidence of favoritism is contained in the
               cell. The formulae for calculating [OBJECT OMITTED]cannot be
               used. Set both equal to 0.

          o    If min(n1j, n2j) > 6 for a mean measure, [OBJECT OMITTED] for a
               proportion measure, or [OBJECT OMITTED] for a rate measure then

          The actual values of the z's and (theta)'s depends on the type of

               values of the index i.

5.   CALCULATE THE AGGREGATE TEST STATISTIC, ZT.

                    [OBJECT OMITTED]

THE BALANCING CRITICAL VALUE

There are four key elements of the statistical testing process:

     1.   the null hypothesis, H0, that parity exists between ILEC and CLEC
          services
     2.   the alternative hypothesis, Ha, that the ILEC is giving better service
          to its own customers
     3.   the Truncated Z test statistic, ZT, and
     4.   a critical value, c

The decision rule1 is

     o    If ZT (less than) c then accept Ha.

     o    If ZT = (more than) c then accept H0.

There are two types of error possible when using such a decision rule:

---------------
(1) This decision rule assumes that a negative test statistic indicates poor
service for the CLEC customer. If the opposite is true, then reverse the
decision rule.
<PAGE>

                                                                   Attachment 10
                                                                         Page 95

          TYPE I ERROR: Deciding favoritism exists when there is, in fact, no
          favoritism.
          TYPE II ERROR: Deciding parity exists when there is, in fact,
          favoritism.

The probabilities of each type of each are:

          TYPE I ERROR: [OBJECT OMITTED].
          TYPE II ERROR: [OBJECT OMITTED].

We want a balancing critical value, cB, so that (alpha) = (beta).

It can be shown that.

                    [OBJECT OMITTED].

where

                    [OBJECT OMITTED]

                    [OBJECT OMITTED]

(PHI)() is the cumulative standard normal distribution function, and (phi)() is
the standard normal density function.

This formula assumes that Zj is approximately normally distributed within cell
j. When the cell sample sizes, n1j and n2j, are small this may not be true. It
is possible to determine the cell mean and variance under the null hypothesis
when the cell sample sizes are small. It is much more difficult to determine
these values under the alternative hypothesis. Since the cell weight, Wj will
also be small (see calculate weights section above) for a cell with small
volume, the cell mean and variance will not contribute much to the weighted sum.
Therefore, the above formula provides a reasonable approximation to the
balancing critical value.

The values of mj and sej will depend on the type of performance measure.

Mean Measure

For mean measures, one is concerned with two parameters in each cell, namely,
the mean and variance. A possible lack of parity may be due to a difference in
cell means, and/or a difference in cell variances. One possible set of
hypotheses that capture this notion, and take into account the assumption that
transaction are identically distributed within cells is:

               H0: (mu)1j = (mu)2j, (sigma)1j2 = (sigma)2j2

               Ha: (mu)2j = (mu)1j + (delta)jo (sigma)1j, (sigma)2j2 =
               (lambda)jo (sigma)1j2(delta)j > 0, (lambda)j => 1 and j =
               1,...,L.

Under this form of alternative hypothesis, the cell test statistic Zj has mean
and standard error given by

                                                                   Attachment 10
                                                                         Page 96

                    [OBJECT OMITTED], and

                    [OBJECT OMITTED]

Proportion Measure

For a proportion measure there is only one parameter of interest in each cell,
the proportion of transaction possessing an attribute of interest. A possible
lack of parity may be due to a difference in cell proportions. A set of
hypotheses that take into account the assumption that transaction are
identically distributed within cells while allowing for an analytically
tractable solution is:

               H0: [OBJECT OMITTED]

               Ha: [OBJECT OMITTED]          (psi)j > 1 and j = 1,...,L.

These hypotheses are based on the "odds ratio." If the transaction attribute of
interest is a missed trouble repair, then an interpretation of the alternative
hypothesis is that a CLEC trouble repair appointment is (psi)j times more likely
to be missed than an ILEC trouble.

Under this form of alternative hypothesis, the within cell asymptotic mean and
variance of a1j are given by2

Recall that the cell test statistic is given by

Using the equations above, we see that Zj has mean and standard error given by

Rate Measure

A rate measure also has only one parameter of interest in each cell, the rate at
which a phenomenon is observed relative to a base unit, e.g. the number of
troubles per available line. A possible lack of parity may be due to a
difference in cell rates. A set of hypotheses that take into account the
assumption that transaction are identically distributed within cells is:

                    H0: r1j = r2j

                    Ha: r2j = (epsilon)jr1j     (epsilon)j > 1 and j = 1,...,L.

Given the total number of ILEC and CLEC transactions in a cell, nj, and the
number of base elements, b1j and b2j, the number of ILEC transaction, n1j, has a
binomial distribution from nj trials and a probability of

DETERMINING THE PARAMETERS OF THE ALTERNATIVE HYPOTHESIS

In this appendix we have indexed the alternative hypothesis of mean measures by
two sets of parameters, (lambda)j and (delta)j. Proportion and rate measures
have been indexed by one set of parameters each, (psi)j and (epsilon)j
respectively. While statistical science can be used to evaluate the impact of
different choices of these parameters, there is not much that an appeal to
statistical principles can offer in directing specific choices. Specific choices
are best left to telephony experts. Still, it is possible to comment on some
aspects of these choices:

     o    PARAMETER CHOICES FOR (LAMBDA)J. The set of parameters (lambda)j index
          alternatives to the null hypothesis that arise because there might be
          greater unpredictability or variability in the delivery of service to
          a CLEC customer over that which would be achieved for an otherwise
          comparable ILEC customer. While concerns about differences in the
          variability of service are important, it turns out that the truncated
          Z testing which is being recommended here is relatively insensitive to
          all but very large values of the (lambda)j. Put another way,
          reasonable differences in the values chosen here could make very
          little difference in the balancing points chosen.
<PAGE>

                                                                   Attachment 10
                                                                         Page 99

     o    PARAMETER CHOICES FOR (DELTA)J. The set of parameters (delta)j are
          much more important in the choice of the balancing point than was true
          for the (lambda)j. The reason for this is that they directly index
          differences in average service. The truncated Z test is very sensitive
          to any such differences; hence, even small disagreements among experts
          in the choice of the (delta)j could be very important. Sample size
          matters here too. For example, setting all the (delta)j to a single
          value - (delta)j = (delta) - might be fine for tests across individual
          CLECs where currently in Louisiana the CLEC customer bases are not too
          different. Using the same value of (delta) for the overall state
          testing does not seem sensible, however, since the state sample would
          be so much larger.

     o    PARAMETER CHOICES FOR (PSI)J OR (EPSILON)J. The set of parameters
          (psi)j or (epsilon)j are also important in the choice of the balancing
          point for tests of their respective measures. The reason for this is
          that they directly index increases in the proportion or rate of
          service performance. The truncated Z test is sensitive to such
          increases; but not as sensitive as the case of (delta)j for mean
          measures. Sample size matters here as well. As with mean measures,
          using the same value of (psi) or (epsilon) for the overall state
          testing does not seem sensible since the state sample would be so much
          larger.

The bottom line here is that beyond a few general considerations, like those
given above, a principled approach to the choice of the alternative hypotheses
to guard against, must come from elsewhere.

DECISION PROCESS

Once ZT has been calculated, it is compared to the balancing critical value to
determine if the ILEC is favoring its own customers over a CLEC's customers.

This critical value changes as the ILEC and CLEC transaction volume change. One
way to make this transparent to the decision maker, is to report the difference
between the test statistic and the critical value, diff = ZT - cB. If favoritism
is concluded when ZT (less than) cB, then the diff (less than) 0 indicates
favoritism.

This make it very easy to determine favoritism: a positive diff suggests no
favoritism, and a negative diff suggests favoritism.

BST VSEEM REMEDY PROCEDURE

TIER-1 CALCULATION FOR RETAIL ANALOGUES:

1.   Calculate the overall test statistic for each CLEC; zTCLEC1 (See Exhibit C)

2.   Calculate the balancing critical value( cB CLEC1 ) that is associated with
     the alternative hypothesis (for fixed parameters (delta), (psi) or
     (epsilon)). (See Exhibit C)

3.   If the overall test statistic is equal to or above the balancing critical
     value, stop here. Otherwise, go to step 4.

4.   Calculate the Parity Gap by subtracting the value of step 2. from that of
     step 1.; zTCLEC1 - cB CLEC1

5.   Calculate the Volume Proportion using a linear distribution with slope of
     1/4. This can be accomplished by taking the absolute value of the Parity
     Gap from step 4. divided by 4; ABS((zTCLEC1 - cB CLEC1 ) / 4). All parity
     gaps equal or greater to 4 will result in a volume proportion of 100%.

6.   Calculate the Affected Volume by multiplying the Volume Proportion from
     step 5. by the Total CLEC1 Volume in the negatively affected cell; where
     the cell value is negative. (See Exhibit C)

7.   Calculate the payment to ITC/\DeltaCom by multiplying the result of step 6.
     by the appropriate dollar amount from the fee schedule.

          So, ITC/\DeltaCom payment = Affected VolumeCLEC1 * $$ from Fee

CALCULATION FOR RETAIL ANALOGUES:

1.   Tier-2 is triggered by three monthly failures of any VSEEM submetric in the
     same quarter.

2.   Calculate the overall test statistic for the CLEC Aggregate using all
     transactions from the calendar quarter; zTCLECA

3.   Calculate the balancing critical value( cB CLEC1 ) that is associated with
     the alternative hypothesis (for fixed parameters (delta), (psi) or
     (epsilon)). (See Exhibit C)

4.   If the overall test statistic is equal to or above the balancing critical
     value for the calendar quarter, stop here. Otherwise, go to step 5.

     affected cell; where the cell value is negative (See Exhibit C).

Tier-3 uses the monthly CLEC Aggregate results in a given State. Tier-3 is
triggered when five of the twelve Tier-3 sub-metrics experience consecutive
failures in a given calendar quarter. The table below displays a situation that
would trigger a Tier-3 failure, and one that would not.

3.   If the percentage (or equivalent percentage for small samples) is equal to
     or below the benchmark standard, stop here. Otherwise, go to step 4.

4.   Determine the Volume Proportion by taking the difference between the
     benchmark and the actual performance result.

5.   Calculate the Affected Volume by multiplying the Volume Proportion from
     step 4. by the Total CLEC1 Volume.

6.   Calculate the payment to ITC/\DeltaCom by multiplying the result of step 5.
     by the appropriate dollar amount from the fee schedule.

TIER-1 CALCULATION FOR BENCHMARKS (IN THE FORM OF A TARGET):

1.   For each, with five or more observations, CLEC calculate monthly
     performance results for the State.

2.   CLECs having observations (sample sizes) between 5 and 30 will use Table I
     above.

3.   Calculate the interval distribution based on the same data set used in step
     1.

4.   If the `percent within' is equal to or exceeds the benchmark standard, stop
     here. Otherwise, go to step 5.

5.   Determine the Volume Proportion by taking the difference between 100% and
     the actual performance result.

6.   Calculate the Affected Volume by multiplying the Volume Proportion from
     step 5. by the Total CLEC1 Volume.

7.   Calculate the payment to ITC/\DeltaCom by multiplying the result of step 6.

    changes is not stated, the applicable NRC from the appropriate tariff
    applies.

2   Transmission/usage charges associated with POTS circuit switched usage will
    also apply to circuit switched voice and/or circuit switched data

    only through BFR/New Business Request Process. Rates for the packet
    capabilities will be determined via the Bona Fide Request/New Business
    Request Process.

    Profile per B Channel.

5   When CLEC buys the switch at the network element rate it will receive
    vertical services at no additional charge, but when it buys combinations of
    elements to produce a BellSouth retail service, and thus comes under the
    resale pricing provisions, it must also pay the wholesale rate for vertical
    services, if those services are in the retail tariff on the effective date
    of the agreement. Vertical services which are not in the retail tariff but
    which can be provided by the switch will be available at no additional
    charges. (NC)

6   This rate element is for use in those states with a different rate for
    additional minutes of use.

7   BellSouth and CLEC shall negotiate rates for this offering. If agreement is
    not reached within sixty (60) days of the Effective Date, either party may
    petition the Florida PSC to settle the disputed charge or charges. (FL)

    800 No. Delivery vs. POTS No. Delivery and calls with Optional Complex
    Features vs. w/o Optional Complex Features.

    capability does not exist.

1   Until the FCC issues its order implementing a cost recovery mechanism for
    permanent number portability, the Company will track its costs of providing
    interim SPNP with sufficient detail to verify the costs. This will
    facilitate the Florida PSCs consideration of the recovery of these costs in
    Docket 950737-TP. (FL)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2   BellSouth and CLEC will each bear their own costs of providing remote call
    forwarding as an interim number portability option. (KY)
