SCHEDULE SIX

Usage Associated With Facilities Construction

Customer desires that Company construct, configure or install necessary equipment and/or facilities from Company’s network to Customer’s premises (“Facilities”) to provide Services under this Schedule Six (“Services” for purposes of this Schedule) to certain site(s) operated by Customer as set forth in Attachment 6-1 (the “Location(s)”). Company requires Customer’s commitment to generate a certain minimum amount of usage at the Location(s) in order to justify the capital expenditure necessary to construct, configure or install the Facilities.

1. SERVICE TERMS AND CONDITIONS: The term of this Schedule shall begin on the First Amendment Effective Date and shall continue until expiration of the last of the Location Term commitments as defined in Attachment 6-1 (the “Schedule Term”).

2. FACILITIES: Customer understands and agrees that the Facilities are and shall remain the sole property of Company and nothing herein shall be construed to convey to Customer any rights or privileges to the Facilities either directly or indirectly through Customer’s commitment. Customer shall conduct its business relative to these Facilities consistent with Company’s sole ownership of these Facilities. Customer understands and agrees that construction of the Facilities is dependent upon (i) obtaining all necessary rights, permits, licenses, easements, and rights of way at the Locations, including adequate space, power and environmental clearances; and (ii) securing the right for Company to install, operate and maintain its equipment at the Location(s). Customer may be requested to sign a collocation agreement with Company for each Location in a form and substance satisfactory to Customer and Company.

3. LOCATION SPECIFIC SUBMINIMUMS:

a. At each Location, in addition to any volume commitments set forth in the Agreement, commencing on the Location Term, Customer guarantees the minimum Usage Charges (for each Location, a “Location Subminimum”) and the Location Term commitments for the Services as set forth in Attachment 6-1. For purposes hereof, the Location Term for each location shall commence on the date on which the Location is “Lit” and ready to utilize the Services. A “Lit” building is defined as a facility where Company fiber is demarcated. If the Term of the Agreement expires before the expiration of the Location Term commitments set forth for all Location(s) under this Schedule, the terms and conditions of the Agreement (including applicable rates and charges for Services at each Location) shall continue to control and apply to this Schedule until the end of the Schedule Term.

b. Company does not guarantee that any specific Location build-out will be completed, or will be completed within a certain time period. Company reserves the right to: (i) delay or discontinue the build-out of any Location, (ii) decline to provide Service in one or more Locations and (iii) terminate Customer’s use of Service at one or more Locations. The exercise of any such right shall be in Company’s sole discretion and without liability to Customer. In such event, and as Customer’s sole remedy, Customer’s Location Subminimum for such Location will not apply, and Customer will not be responsible for the Location Subminimum underutilization charges for such Location until the first full Monthly Period following the completion of the build-out.

c. If, in any Monthly Period, Customer’s Usage Charges for Services at a Location are less than the applicable Location Subminimum, then Customer will pay an underutilization charge equal to the difference between the Location Subminimum and Customer’s Usage Charges at the Location during such Monthly Period.

demand by Customer and without further demand upon expiration or termination of this Agreement. MCI shall not attempt to gain access to restricted areas, to systems, or to Confidential Information in the possession of the Corporations or Subscribers beyond the access permitted by that entity.

For Service to member firms in Canada, Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico Customer shall pay the applicable rates as set forth in Section 16 of this Schedule Nine plus an additional fee for access to the network based on standard or GSA rates (“Network Access Rate”). In addition to the Network Access Rate, Company will pass through to Customer, and Customer shall be responsible for, any charges (including, without limitation, installation charges), fees, taxes and terms and conditions of service imposed by local access/egress service suppliers (e.g., Bell Canada) in relation to the provision of Services, including, but not limited to, rate fluctuations in tariffs, communications charges and access charges that are imposed or enacted by the local suppliers from time to time. Customer shall be responsible for any gains or losses associated with fluctuations in the exchange rate and/or timing of payment where access charges are billed in non-U.S. currency and are to be paid by Customer in U.S. Dollars. Company shall, for this limited purpose only, act as Customer’s representative in procuring, on Customer’s behalf and at no additional cost to Customer for so procuring, the local access/egress services from suppliers.

15 Customer warrants to Company that during the term of this Agreement, but in no event beyond December 31, 2005 (unless the parties specifically agree otherwise):

(a) Customer shall obtain all of its SDP-API Services solely and exclusively from Company. As used herein, “EWN Services” means those network transmission, network management, network maintenance, network monitoring services, and customer premises equipment required by Customer for, and associated with either: (i) the operation of SDP/API but only between, and including, the switches at each of the Customer data centers and each Subscriber’s premises (and not including any components or services affecting only the Customer or Subscriber side of such switches), or (ii) the functionality associated with SDP’s. Each party agrees to negotiate in good faith the pricing for any new or additional SDP-API Services. The provisions of the Section 15(a) do not survive the completion of performance or the rejection, termination or expiration of this Agreement. Customer’s breach of the exclusivity obligations as set out in this Section 15 (a) which are not cured within 30 days’ written notice from MCI shall be considered Cause for termination for MCI.

(b) Should Customer enable a web application for small users (less than ****), the establishment and migration of these users will not be subject to the exclusivity requirement in 15 (a) above.

(c) The Company will not market or sell Schedule Nine network connectivity to market makers for purposes of allowing these market makers to satisfy their attributable quoting (or order entry) through a Customer competitor. This includes the support of a market maker’s requirement to maintain during the trading day a valid two sided quote (or order) in all securities for which they are a registered market maker. The quote (or order) attribution occurs because the market maker’s identity is revealed by assigning the market maker’s MPID (“Market Participant ID”), to the quote (or order). In the event that the Customer notifies the Company that one of the Company’s Subscribers is engaged in attributable quoting (or order entry) with a market center different than the Customer’s, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to stop the Subscriber from engaging in attributable quoting (or order entry) over the Company network.
