Ingress & Egress Pricing
21
Ingress Call Paths and Costs (Calls into the LiveOps Cloud)
Customer DID/DDI/TFN* Numbers Customer-owned numbers on a LiveOps direct PSTN peer are re-assigned to enter on the LiveOps Circuits (aka “Client-side Routing”) Numbers on other (non-peer) carriers must “point” to a new DID on a LiveOps circuit Customer-owned numbers on CenturyLink must point to a new DID on a LiveOps circuit USA: TFN* via a LiveOps direct TFN PSTN peer EMEA: DDI/TFN* via a LiveOps direct peer Other Carriers LiveOps Cloud Numbers from all other carriers Customer LiveOps One-Time Setup Fees Ingress Fees Customer-owned TFN number via direct peer (VZB, ATT) $100 Setup Fee (one time) 0.0¢ / minute (LiveOps) ~ 2.0¢ / min TFN charges (from Carrier) LiveOps-owned TFN number via direct peer (VZB, ATT, CLK, L3/GX, BT) $50 per number (one time) 2.5¢ / minute (LiveOps) 0.0¢ / min TFN charges (from Carrier) Numbers from other carriers that are pointed to LiveOps DIDs ~ 1.5¢ / min TFN charges (from Carrier) ~ Call Forwarding charges (from Carrier) RED = Non-LiveOps charges *DID/DDI = Direct Dialed Inbound number, *TFN = Toll Free Number Prices are estimated, non-binding and subject to change February, 2014

LiveOps – US Telephony, Summary of Charges
Ingress Charges Category Carrier Pricing Details Great AT&T VZB 0.0¢/min to LiveOps. Standard fee to Carrier. AT&T and VZB are the only carriers that will bill the customer but deliver calls to a 3rd party (LO) One Source Networks (OSN) Lowest cost for other carriers. OSN is our “provider of choice” for Telco XO, Call Tower, Telesphere Varies. On-net providers use their own SIP trunks (often paired with a Hosted UC solution) Good LiveOps provided DID/TFN 2.5¢/min to LiveOps. Comparable rates, simple billing (Port number to LiveOps) Poor Customer TFN forwarded to a LiveOps DID Most expensive. Remember: There are LOTS of good reasons to move to the cloud. Lower price in NOT the primary reason customers move to the cloud!

Additional Options Quick Deployment Scenarios
Migration strategy can be simple Internal PBX/CC forwards all calls to external PSTN DID into the LiveOps Cloud LiveOps-powered agents can sit inside company or external Note: Extra trunk capacity is required for forwarded and hair-pinned call paths Disaster Recovery/Business Continuity Scenarios Quickly re-route all service numbers to a LiveOps inbound DID/TFN Quickly spin-up new DR-site agents or home-based agents Circuit outages: Forward #’s to LiveOps DIDs and empower mobilephone-based agents Overflow Scenarios Route overflow calls to the LiveOps On-Demand Contact Center Platform Carrier or internal PBX/CC routes overflow calls to external PSTN # into LiveOps Cloud Dial-out & Outbound Campaigns All outbound PSTN calls = 1.5¢ / minute (N. America Domestic) or INTL Long Distance (as applicable)

Notes and Reference Information
Toll Free Numbers (TFNs) can be “Virtual” or “Provisioned on a Circuit” Virtual The TFNs are provisioned by a provider but not associated with a specific end-user’s circuit These TFNs need to be “pointed” at a DID that will ring into a specific circuit Incoming toll free calls enter the PBX/System as if the caller had dialed the DID directly The DID is displayed as the Dialed Number (DNIS) (not the Toll Free Number itself) These types of TFNs can be re-pointed to a DID/TFN assigned to a LiveOps Circuit Provisioned on a Circuit The TFNs are physically provisioned on one specific circuit The DNIS for inbound calls is the toll free number itself These types of TFN need to be re-assigned by the carrier to enter on the LiveOps Circuits (via a “Shared Use Agreement”) Responsible Organization (RESP ORG) The entity authorized to make changes for a particular number with the carrier Re-provisioning a TFN or DID/DDI number from the customer’s circuit to a LiveOps circuits can only be done by the entity named as the RESP ORG Porting Transporting ownership of a number from one provider to another E.g. moving a customer TFN or DID number from TW Telecom to Verizon Business Pointing The mapping of a virtual number (like a TFN) to a DID/DDI This enables calls to “land” on the proper circuit (usually the LiveOps circuit on which the DID/DDI is provisioned. See “Virtual TFN” above.)
