Amendment to Cincinnati Bell Management Pension Plan dated January 1, 2006

 Exhibit (10)(iii)(A)(17.8) 
 AMENDMENT TO 
 CINCINNATI BELL MANAGEMENT PENSION PLAN 
 The Cincinnati Bell Management Pension Plan (the “Plan”) is hereby amended, effective as of January 1, 2006 and in order to clarify
certain eligibility rules of the Plan, by amending paragraph (b) of Plan Section 2.1.9 in its entirety to read as follows. 
 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a) above, a person shall not in any event be considered a “Covered Employee” for any period during which he is or was an ineligible bargained-for or hourly employee. For
purposes of the Plan, a person is considered an “ineligible bargained-for or hourly employee” for any period if, and only if, he is during such period either: (1) an Employee of a Participating Company who is a collectively bargained
employee (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. section 1.410(b)-6(d)(2)), unless his participation in the Plan is required for such period under a collective bargaining agreement entered into between the Participating Company and the representatives of
the applicable collective bargaining unit; or (2) an Employee of a Participating Company who is not a collectively bargained employee (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. section 1.410(b)-6(d)(2)) but whose position is an hourly paid position
that is, or at any prior time had been, either subject to automatic wage progression or a position the holder of which would be eligible to participate in the Cincinnati Bell Pension Plan (another defined benefit pension plan sponsored by the
Company) upon the meeting of any applicable minimum age and/or service requirements of such plan. In addition, for purposes of the Plan, a person shall still be considered an “ineligible bargained-for or hourly employee” for any period
during which he is or was temporarily promoted from an ineligible bargained-for or hourly employee position to another position for one year or less. 
 IN ORDER TO EFFECT THE FOREGOING PLAN CHANGE, the Plan’s sponsor, Cincinnati Bell Inc., has caused its name to be subscribed to this Plan amendment.

 Exhibit (10)(iii)(A)(17.9) 
 AMENDMENT TO 
 CINCINNATI BELL MANAGEMENT PENSION PLAN 
 The Cincinnati Bell Management Pension Plan (the “Plan”) is hereby amended, effective as of January 1, 2007 and in order to ensure that
employees cannot at the same time actively participate in more than one defined benefit pension plan to which the Plan employers contribute, by adding a new paragraph (k) reading as follows to the end of Plan Subsection 2.1.9. 
 (k) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a) above, a person shall not in any event be considered a “Covered
Employee” for any period that occurs on or after January 1, 2007 and during which he is a participant, eligible for participation, or in the process of qualifying for participation in any other defined benefit plan (within the meaning of
Section 414(j) of the Code) which qualifies under Section 401(a) of the Code and the cost of which is borne, in whole or in part, by any Participating Company. However, a person who otherwise qualifies as an “Covered Employee”
under the other provisions of this Subsection 2.1.9 shall not be considered other than as a “Covered Employee” merely because of his participation in another defined benefit pension plan if such participation relates solely to employment
which preceded the date on which he would otherwise become a Participant under the Plan and the person’s benefits under such other plan relate solely to such past service. 
 IN ORDER TO EFFECT THE FOREGOING PLAN CHANGE, the Plan’s sponsor, Cincinnati Bell Inc., has caused its name to be subscribed to this Plan amendment.

              3.  

            	
              To
                the extent required under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code,
                all
                payments due to Stutter under Paragraph 2 above shall be delayed

                time,
                Stutler shall be paid all sums that were otherwise payable under
