including any and all subsidiaries and affiliates of PaeTec Corp., including but not limited to PaeTec Communications, Inc., as well as any successors or assigns of PaeTec Corp. and/or its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, the
“Company”), and
                                        
(“you”). 
 WHEREAS, the Company now has and expects to develop confidential and proprietary materials and highly sensitive
information of immeasurable value, which you recognize must be carefully protected as set forth below for the Company to be successful; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, to induce the Company to continue to employ you, and in consideration of your continued employment by the Company and other good and valuable consideration as set forth below of which you expressly acknowledge, the Company
and you hereby agree, intending to be legally bound, as follows: 
 1. Defined Terms. 
 For purposes of this Agreement, termination for “Cause” shall mean termination of your employment with the Company due to:
(1) material failure or refusal to perform the duties assigned to you, provided that the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (or the Company’s Board of Directors if you are the Company’s Chief Executive Officer) gives you a written
notice of your refusal to perform such duties or comply with such direction and 20 days to remedy such refusal, and further provided that such duties or directions are not inconsistent with those of other individuals reporting directly to the
Company’s Chief Executive Officer or the Company’s Board of Directors, (2) your refusal to follow the reasonable directives of the Board of Directors or Chief Executive Officer of the Company, provided that the Company’s Chief
Executive Officer (or the Company’s Board of Directors if you are the Company’s Chief Executive Officer) gives you a written notice of your refusal to perform such direction and 20 days to remedy such refusal, and further provided that
such directions are not inconsistent with those of other individuals reporting directly to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or the Company’s Board of Directors, or (3) conviction of a felony. 
 For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change of Control Transaction” shall be deemed to have occurred if (a) a transaction is made and
consummated involving the sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, or the sale of a majority of its outstanding shares, whether by way of merger, consolidation, business combination or otherwise; or (b) a tender offer or
exchange offer is made and consummated in a transaction for the ownership of securities of the Company representing more than 50 percent of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding voting securities.

 For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” means your “permanent and total
disability” within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as now in effect or as hereafter amended. 
 For purposes of this Agreement, termination for “Good Reason” shall mean termination of your employment with the Company due to: (a) your assignment without your consent to a position, responsibilities, or duties of a
materially lesser status or degree of responsibility than your position, responsibilities, or duties as of the date of this Agreement; (b) any action by the Company to reduce your base salary by any amount at any time; (c) the relocation
of the Company’s principal executive offices outside the metropolitan Rochester, N.Y. area; (d) the requirement by the Company that you be based anywhere other than your current metropolitan location without your consent; or (e) you
electing, for any reason or for no reason at all, to voluntarily resign from the Company at any time during the first ninety (90) days after the date of closing of any Change of Control Transaction (as that term is defined above). 

2. Confidentiality. 
 You acknowledge that you will
be provided access to Company Confidential Information and will occupy a position of trust and confidence with respect to the Company’s affairs and business. “Company Confidential Information” includes, but is not limited to, all
information and materials related to existing computer software and hardware, computer software and hardware in any stage of research and development, research, business procedures and strategies, marketing plans and strategies, customer lists,
financial data, technical and laboratory data and/or specifications related to the Company’s products and services, and any other information that is not generally known to the public or within the industry in which the Company competes.

 You agree to take all reasonable steps to preserve the confidential and proprietary nature of Company Confidential Information and to
prevent the inadvertent or accidental disclosure of Company Confidential Information. You agree that during your employment with the Company and thereafter, you will not use, disclose, transfer, or remove from the Company’s premises any Company
Confidential Information other than as authorized by the Company. You agree to return to the Company all Company Confidential Information and copies thereof at any time upon the request of the Company. Your obligations under this section entitled
“Confidentiality” shall continue after termination of your Service to the Company. 
 You further agree not to disclose to the
Company or use in the Company’s business any idea, invention, work of authorship or other information or material relating to the business of any third person and intended by that person not to be disclosed to the Company. 
 3. Non-Competition. 
 For a period of two years after
termination or resignation of your employment with the Company (regardless of the reason for your termination or resignation), you shall not, directly or indirectly: 
  

	 	a.	 solicit or serve clients, customers, or employees of the Company, whether for your own account or as an employee, shareholder, partner, officer, member, 

  

 2 

	 	 
manager, director, consultant, or other representative of any third party engaged in the competitive local exchange telecommunications services business, in
any geographical area in which the Company is then conducting operations; 

  

	 	b.	direct any business from, or enter into competition with, the Company in any line of business in which the Company is then conducting operations (in any geographical area in which
the Company is then conducting such line of business), provided that such line of business is one from which the Company is generating more than ten percent (10%) of its total business revenues on a consolidated basis; or

  

	 	c.	serve as an employee, partner, ten percent (10%) or greater shareholder, officer, member, manager, director, consultant or other representative of any entity engaged in the
activities restricted by subparagraphs “a.” or “b.” above. 

 The foregoing covenants and agreements in
this section entitled “Non-Competition” and the section entitled “Confidentiality” reflect the entire understanding and agreement between you and the Company on these subjects, and by your execution of this Agreement you agree
that such covenants and agreements shall be deemed to supersede any prior discussions, negotiations, or agreements, whether written or oral, between you and the Company with respect to these subjects. 
 4. Consideration. 
 As consideration for the
non-competition covenant set forth in Section 3 above, the Company agrees that, unless your employment is terminated due to your death, Disability, or termination for Cause, the Company shall: 
  

	 	a.	pay you during each year of the two-year period in which the covenant is in effect an amount equal to the highest annualized base salary paid to you at any time during the
one-year period immediately preceding the termination or resignation of your employment (hereafter referred to as your “Base Salary”), provided, however, that if you terminate your employment at any time for Good Reason, or if your
employment is terminated by the Company at any time within one year of the closing of any Change of Control Transaction, then the Company shall pay you during each year of the two-year period in which the covenant is in effect an amount equal
to two (2) times your Base Salary; 

  

	 	b.	subject to the terms of the applicable program documents, continue your eligibility and participation in benefit programs available generally to the Company’s employees, as
follows: 

  

	 	(i)	during the entire two-year period in which the non-competition covenant is in effect, you (and your eligible dependents) will be eligible to continue to participate in the insured
medical and dental plans maintained by the Company as if you are an active employee (any share of the applicable premium that is payable by you shall be payable on an after-tax basis); 

  

 3 

	 	(ii)	during the entire two-year period in which the non-competition covenant is in effect, the Company will pay the premiums (on a semi-annual basis) for the Company-provided life
insurance you elect to “port” following your termination or resignation of employment with the Company (you will be able to continue any supplemental life insurance coverage at your own expense following separation from the Company);

  

	 	(iii)	following your termination or resignation of employment with the Company, you may continue to participate in the Company’s Flexible Spending Account (“FSA”) for the
remainder of the then current calendar year pursuant to the terms of the FSA and as allowable by law; 

  

	 	(iv)	your contributions, and contributions on your behalf, to the Company-sponsored Internal Revenue Code Section 401(k) plan, and any other retirement plan maintained by the
Company, will cease as of the date of your termination or resignation of employment with the Company; and 

  

	 	(v)	your coverage under the Company’s short-term and long-term disability policies will cease as of the date of your termination or resignation of employment with the Company;

  

	 	c.	count the two-year period during which the non-competition covenant is in effect as two years of service for purposes of calculating the vested portion of any Company stock options
that have been granted to you; and 

  

	 	d.	pay you during each year of the two-year period in which the covenant is in effect an annual bonus amount equal to the greater of (a) forty percent (40%) of your
Base Salary, or (b) the maximum amount that you would have been eligible to receive under that year’s Company bonus plan as if the bonus year had been completed and all applicable bonus targets had been exceeded at the highest levels, and
as if you had been an employee of the Company during the entire applicable bonus year (i.e., the payment shall not be pro-rated in any manner). Any requirements of the bonus plan that you be employed by the Company during all of the calendar year
covered by the bonus plan and/or be on the payroll as of the date the bonus payments are actually paid out are expressly waived for you in this circumstance. 

 Payment of your Base Salary shall be made in accordance with the Company’s customary payroll practices, except that the Company shall have no
obligation to accommodate your request for direct deposit or voluntary deductions for any purposes. In those years in which you are entitled to receive two times your annualized Base Salary, the Company shall simply double each regular payroll
payment that is due to you. 
 Payment of the annual bonus amounts pursuant to subparagraph “d.” above shall be made in accordance
with the Company’s customary annual bonus payout practices. Payment shall be made to you at the same time and in the same manner as the annual bonus is paid out to the 

  

 4 

 
Company’s employees generally, except that in any year in which there is no bonus payout to employees generally, the annual bonus amount due to you
pursuant to subparagraph “d.” above shall be paid to you in full no later than February 1 of the calendar year immediately following the applicable bonus year. 
 Continued payment of your Base Salary, your continuation in the Company’s benefits programs, the continued vesting of your stock options, and the
payment to you of the forty percent bonus or the bonus under the Company’s bonus program, all under this Section 4, shall not occur if termination of your employment is due to your death, Disability, or termination for “Cause”.

 If the Company successfully obtains a final judicial determination from a court of competent jurisdiction that you have in fact violated
the terms of the non-competition covenant set forth in Section 3 above, the Company, in addition to any other remedies available under law, may discontinue any payments being made to you pursuant to this Section 4, and may discontinue any
continuing vesting of stock options that would otherwise occur pursuant to this Section 4. If the Company commences any type of legal proceeding against you to enforce any provision of this Agreement but does not prevail in that proceeding, the
Company shall, immediately upon receipt of an itemized listing from you, reimburse you for all of your actual expenses incurred in defending such proceeding, including attorneys fees and court costs. 
 5. Retention Rights. 
 Nothing in this
Agreement gives you the right to be retained by the Company in any capacity. The Company reserves the right to terminate your Service at any time and for any reason. 
 6. Applicable Law. 
 This Agreement and its terms will be construed, enforced, and governed by the
laws of the State of Delaware without regard to conflict or choice of law rules or other principles that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the substantive law of a jurisdiction other than Delaware. 

7. Forum Selection. 
 At all times each party
hereto (a) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York court or Federal court sitting in New York; (b) agrees that any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby shall be heard and determined in such New York or Federal court; (c) to the extent permitted by law irrevocably waives (i) any objection such party may have to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in any of such
courts, or (ii) any claim that such party may have that any such action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum; and (d) to the extent permitted by law irrevocably agrees that a final nonappealable judgment in any such
action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this section entitled “Forum Selection” shall affect the right of any party
hereto to serve legal process in any manner permitted by law.

 Exhibit 10.6.3 
 AMENDMENT 
 TO 
 SENIOR OFFICER CONFIDENTIALITY, NON-SOLICITATION, 
 NON-COMPETITION AND SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

 AMENDMENT TO SENIOR OFFICER CONFIDENTIALITY, NON-SOLICITATION, NON-COMPETITION AND SEVERANCE AGREEMENT (this
“Amendment”), dated as of August 11, 2006, made among PAETEC Corp., a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), and the Senior Officer of the Company set forth on the signature page
hereof (“you”). 
 W I T N E S S E T H : 
 WHEREAS, the Company and you are parties to a Senior Officer Confidentiality, Non-Solicitation, Non-Competition and Severance Agreement, dated as of
                     (as amended, the “Agreement”); 
 WHEREAS, among other matters, the Agreement provides for increased cash severance payments if you elect to voluntarily resign from the Company at any
time during the first 90 days after the closing date of any change of control transaction specified in the Agreement (such provision, the “Change of Control Provision”); 
 WHEREAS, the Company and you wish for the Company to consummate a business combination transaction (the “Merger”) in which the Company
and US LEC Corp. will become wholly-owned direct subsidiaries of a newly formed holding company, WC Acquisition Holdings Corp., the sole stockholders of which will be the holders of common stock of each of the Company and of US LEC Corp. immediately
prior to the effective time of the Merger; 
 WHEREAS, the Merger will be consummated pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger among the
Company, US LEC Corp., WC Acquisition Holdings Corp. and two wholly-owned direct subsidiaries of WC Acquisition Holdings Corp., in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (as such agreement may be finalized and amended from time
to time, the “Merger Agreement”); and 
 WHEREAS, the Company and you wish to amend the Agreement to clarify that the
consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement will not constitute the consummation of a change of control transaction for purposes of the Change of Control Provision and to add certain provisions relating
to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
covenants and conditions hereinafter set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Amendment to Section 1. Section 1 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following text before the period at the end of the
definition of “Good Reason” set 

 
forth therein: “; provided that, solely for purposes of clause (e) of this definition, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the
Agreement and Plan of Merger among the Company, US LEC Corp., WC Acquisition Holdings Corp., WC Acquisition Sub U Corp. and WC Acquisition Sub P Corp., in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, as the same may be finalized and
subsequently amended from time to time, shall not be deemed to constitute a Change of Control Transaction”. 
 2. Amendment to
Section 4. Section 4 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following sentence as a new paragraph at the end of Section 4: 
 “Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if you are a “key employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section
409A”), payments under this Agreement shall not commence (or be made in the case of a lump sum payment) until six months following your separation from service to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of the additional 20% tax under
Section 409A (and, in the case of installment payments, the first payment shall include all installment payments required by this subsection that otherwise would have been made during such six month period).” 
 3. Assignment. From and after the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement), all rights and obligations of the Company under the
Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, shall be deemed to be rights and obligations of WC Acquisition Holdings Corp., provided that WC Acquisition Holdings Corp. assumes such rights and obligations pursuant to the Merger Agreement or otherwise
assumes such rights and obligations prior to such Effective Time. 
 4. Miscellaneous. This Amendment shall not constitute an
amendment or modification of any provision of the Agreement not expressly referred to herein. Except as expressly set forth in this Amendment, the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect.
This Amendment may be executed in counterparts, all of which shall together constitute a single agreement. 
 5. Delivery by Facsimile and
Electronic Means. This Amendment, to the extent signed and delivered by means of a facsimile machine, electronic mail or other electronic means, shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original instrument and shall be considered to
have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of either party hereto, the other party hereto shall reexecute the original form of this Amendment and deliver such form to the
other party. 
 6. Governing Law. THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
DELAWARE (WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE PROVISIONS THEREOF RELATING TO CONFLICTS OF LAW).
