4. PAYMENT

4.1 Fixed Monthly Service Fees. The cost for Services requiring a fixed monthly fee shall be as stated in the Phone Purchase Agreement and shall be payable monthly, in advance, plus all applicable taxes, tariffs, governmental assessments, surcharges and fees (collectively, the Fixed Service Fee(s)). The Fixed Service Fee for the first month of Service shall be due and payable prior to installation of Service and if commencement of Service occurs on other than the first calendar day of the month then the Fixed Service Fee will be prorated by the number of calendar days remaining in the month. Thereafter, the Fixed Service Fee is due and payable in advance on the first day of each month and shall be considered late if not received by Simplified Networks by the tenth calendar day of each month.
4.2 Variable Monthly Usage Fees. The cost for Services computed based on the usage by Customer and other variable factors shall be computed at the rates stated in the Phone Purchase Agreement and shall be payable monthly, using a cut-off date selected by Simplified Networks, in arrears, plus all applicable taxes, tariffs, governmental assessments, surcharges and fees (collectively, the Usage Fee(s)). The rates for voice services set forth in the Phone Purchase Agreement shall be valid for the
initial term, provided however, all rates for International Services are subject to change on five calendar days' notice from Simplified Networks. New rates are automatically effective on the 6th day from the date of such notice. Simplified Networks, upon 10 days' notice can adjust the rates for voice services to include the cost, if any, of tariffs, taxes or assessments imposed upon Simplified Networks by any governmental agency. The Usage Fees are due and payable on the first day of the month billed and shall be considered late if not received by Simplified Networks by the tenth calendar day of such month.
4.3 Installation Charge and Security Deposit. The charge for Installation shall be as stated in the Sales Order and shall be due and payable prior to installation. Charges for Advanced Installation are detailed in the Sales Order. An equipment deposit for Simplified Networks Equipment to be used in the Customer Premises shall be as stated in the Sales Order and shall be due prior to installation and shall be refunded to Customer upon termination of service, provided said Simplified Networks Equipment is returned in good working condition.
4.4 Agreement to Pay. Monthly payments and any other amounts due to Simplified Networks may be charged to Customer's Visa, MasterCard, American Express or other credit card, and/or electronically debited to Customer's bank account, or billed monthly at Customer's option.

4.5 Late Payments/Failure to Pay. If any payment due to Simplified Networks is not received within 10 days of due date, an administrative charge of 5% of the amount due may be assessed and the Service may be discontinued. If the Service is discontinued, Customer will be required to pay a reconnect fee of $200.00 in addition to all past due amounts before the Service is reconnected. The administrative charge is intended to be a reasonable advance estimate of Simplified Networks' costs resulting from Customer's late payments and non-payments, and is set in advance due to the difficulty inherent in determining the costs associated with any particular late payment or non-payment. Simplified Networks does not anticipate that Customer will fail to make payments on a timely basis. Simplified Networks does not extend credit to its Customer, and the administrative charge is not interest, a credit service charge nor a finance charge. In the event Simplified Networks, at its sole discretion, elects to use the services of a third party collection agency, the costs of such third party collection agent shall be paid by the Customer.

For example, Customer may incur charges as a result of accessing certain on-line services or purchasing or subscribing to certain other offerings. Customer agrees that all such charges, including all applicable taxes, are the sole responsibility of Customer.
4.8 Credit Inquiries. Customer authorizes Simplified Networks to make inquiries and to receive information about Customer's credit experience from others, enter this information in Customer's file, and disclose such information concerning Customer to appropriate third parties for reasonable business purposes. Simplified Networks reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to refuse to provide Service based upon lack of creditworthiness, or in the alternative to require a security deposit that will be returned to Customer, without interest thereon, upon the expiration or termination of Services assuming all amounts due Simplified Networks have been paid in full. Simplified Networks shall have the right to offset against the security deposit, in part or in full, for any amounts due Simplified Networks
