The tax certificates will be in a form sufficient to document qualification of the taxes for the foreign tax credit allowable against ITP's U.S. corporate income tax, and will be accompanied by an English translation. Upon receipt of the tax certificate, ITP will issue you a credit for the amounts represented thereby.

Enhanced 911 must be re-activated. Although you may have activated Enhanced 911 with your former ITP phone number, you must separately activate Emergency Calling Service dialing for any new number.
E. Change of Physical Location of ITP Equipment:
You acknowledge and understand that Enhanced 911 does not function properly or may not function at all if you take your equipment with you away from the address or physical location that you have designated.
F. Requires Re-Activation if You Move:
You acknowledge and understand that Enhanced 911 does not function properly or at all if you move or change the physical location of your ITP equipment to a different street address, unless and until you have successfully contacted ITP Customer Service and received confirmation from them that your Enhanced 911 is active. Enhanced 911 must be re-activated although you may have activated Enhanced 911 using your former address, and you must separately activate Enhanced 911 for any new physical address. Failure to provide the current and correct physical address and location of your ITP equipment will result in any Enhanced 911 you may make being routed to the incorrect local emergency service provider.
G. Possibility of Network Congestion and/or Reduced Speed for Routing Enhanced 911:
You acknowledge and understand that there is a greater possibility of network congestion and/or reduced speed in the routing of an Enhanced 911 communication made using your ITP Equipment as compared to traditional 911 dialing over traditional public telephone networks. You acknowledge and understand that Enhanced 911 from your ITP equipment will be routed to the general telephone number for the local emergency service provider, and will not be routed to the 911 dispatcher(s) who are specifically designated to receive incoming 911 calls at such local provider's facilities when such calls are routed using traditional 911 dialing. You acknowledge and understand that there may be a greater possibility that the general telephone number for the local emergency service provider will produce a busy signal or will take longer to answer, as compared to those 911 calls routed to the 911 dispatcher(s) who are specifically designated to receive incoming 911 calls using traditional 911 dialing.
H. Automated Number Identification:
It is not possible for the Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) and the local emergency personnel to identify your phone number when you dial 911 to access Enhanced 911. ITP's system is configured in most instances to send the automated number identification information; however, the phone system routes the traffic to the PSAP and the PSAP itself must be able to receive the information and pass it along properly, and they are not yet always technically capable of doing so. You acknowledge and understand that PSAP and emergency personnel may or may not be able to identify your phone number to call you back if the call is unable to be completed, is dropped or disconnected, or if you are unable to speak to tell them your phone number and/or if the Service is not operational for any reason, including without limitation those listed elsewhere in this Agreement.
I. Automated Location Identification:
It is not possible to transmit identification of the address that you have listed to the Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) and local emergency personnel for your area when you use Enhanced 911. You acknowledge and understand that you will need to state the nature of your emergency promptly and clearly, including your location, as PSAP personnel will NOT have this information. You acknowledge and understand that PSAP and emergency personnel will not be able to find your location if the call is unable to be completed, is dropped or disconnected, if you are unable to speak to tell them your location and/or if the Service is not operational for any reason, including without limitation those listed elsewhere in this Agreement.
J. Alternative Emergency Calling Service Arrangements:
You acknowledge that ITP does not offer primary line or lifeline services. You should always have an alternative means of accessing traditional E911 services. By agreeing to these terms you are also agreeing to the terms listed in the 911 disclaimer.

THIS SECTION SURVIVES TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.

D. ITP will be indemnified, defended, and held harmless by you against all claims of loss or damage arising from the use of service furnished by ITP, including:

1. Allegations or claims for libel, slander, invasion of privacy, or infringement of copyright arising out of the material, data, information, or other content transmitted via ITP service; and

E. ITP MAKES NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES ABOUT ITS SERVICES AND DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE OR NONINFRINGEMENT.

ITP DOES NOT AUTHORIZE ANYONE TO MAKE A WARRANTY ON ITP'S BEHALF AND YOU MAY NOT RELY ON ANY STATEMENT OF WARRANTY AS A WARRANTY BY ITP.

F. ITP will not be liable for any act or omission of any other company or companies furnishing a portion of the service, or from any act or omission of a third party, including those vendors participating in ITP offerings made to you, or for damages associated with service, or equipment that it does not furnish, or for damages that result from the operation of customer provided systems, equipment, facilities or services that are interconnected with ITP services.

VIII. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU READ THIS ENTIRE SECTION CAREFULLY. THIS SECTION PROVIDES FOR RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION BEFORE A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF IN A COURT BY A JUDGE OR JURY OR THROUGH A CLASS ACTION.

A. Binding Arbitration
The arbitration process established by this section is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA"), 9 U.S.C. Sec. 1-16. Both you and ITP have the right to take any dispute that qualifies to small claims court rather than arbitration. All other disputes arising out of or related to this Agreement (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal or equitable theory) must be resolved by final and binding arbitration. This includes any dispute based on any product, service or advertising having a connection with this Agreement and any dispute not finally resolved by a small claims court. The arbitration will be conducted by one arbitrator using the procedures described by this Section. You agree that the appropriate jurisdiction for the arbitration is the State of New York and you agree to submit to that jurisdiction. If any portion of this Dispute Resolution Section is determined to be unenforceable, then the remainder shall be given full force and effect. The arbitration of any dispute involving $10,000 or less shall be conducted in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as modified by this Agreement, which are in effect on the date a dispute is submitted to the AAA. The AAA's Commercial Arbitration Rules and fee schedules will apply to any disputes in excess of $10,000. You have the right to be represented by counsel in an arbitration. In conducting the arbitration and making any award, the arbitrator shall be bound by and strictly enforce the terms of this Agreement and may not limit, expand, or otherwise modify its terms. The arbitrator may not award punitive, exemplary or similar damages. The parties agree that an award of such damages will be void if issued.

NO DISPUTE MAY BE JOINED WITH ANOTHER LAWSUIT, OR IN AN ARBITRATION WITH A DISPUTE OF ANY OTHER PERSON, OR RESOLVED ON A CLASS-WIDE BASIS. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT AWARD DAMAGES THAT ARE NOT EXPRESSLY AUTHORIZED BY THIS AGREEMENT AND MAY NOT AWARD PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR ATTORNEYS' FEES UNLESS SUCH DAMAGES ARE EXPRESSLY AUTHORIZED BY A STATUTE. YOU AND ITP BOTH WAIVE ANY CLAIMS FOR AN AWARD OF DAMAGES THAT ARE EXCLUDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

B. Arbitration Information and Filing Procedures

Before you take a dispute to arbitration or to small claims court, you must first contact our Customer Care Department representative at the customer service number on your ITP invoice for the Services, or write to us, and give us an opportunity to resolve the dispute:

You must describe your dispute and provide ITP with any supporting documentation. Likewise, if ITP has a dispute with you, it will notify you by letter sent to your billing address and attempt to resolve it before pursuing arbitration.

ANY CLAIM OR DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT MUST BE BROUGHT WITHIN TWO YEARS AFTER THE DATE THE BASIS FOR THE CLAIM OR DISPUTE FIRST ARISES.

C. Fees and Expenses of Arbitration
Each party must pay its own expenses associated with any arbitration, including its attorney's fees. If you file a request for arbitration, you will have to pay a filing fee in accordance with the AAA fee schedule. Under AAA rules, some costs such as the arbitrator's fees and expenses will be allocated between the parties.

D. In addition to the procedures described in this Section for resolving a dispute, you may also have the right to file a complaint with an appropriate federal or state regulatory agency.

IX. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

This Agreement is binding upon you and ITP and upon, respectively, your and ITP's agents and heirs.

F. Severability.
If any part or provision of this Agreement is finally determined to be invalid or unenforceable under applicable law by a court of competent jurisdiction, then that part or provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability, without in any way affecting the remaining parts or provisions of this Agreement.

G. Governing Law and Forum Selection.
This Agreement is governed by and construed under the laws of the State of New York and applicable federal law, without regard to its choice of law principles, except that the arbitration provisions in Section VII shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. This governing law provision applies no matter where you reside, or where you use or pay for the services. You further agree that the appropriate jurisdiction for the arbitration is the State of New York, and you agree to submit yourself and any claim you may have against ITP to jurisdiction in the State of New York.
