2.8.6.5 The Transition Period shall apply only to TC SYSTEMS’s Embedded Base and
TC SYSTEMS shall not add new Dark Fiber Loops pursuant to this Agreement.
2.8.6.6 Effective September 11, 2006, Dark Fiber Loops will no longer be made available

2.8.6.7 No later than June 10, 2006 TC SYSTEMS shall submit spreadsheet(s) identifying
all of the Embedded Base of circuits to be either disconnected or converted to
other BellSouth services as Conversions pursuant to Section 1.6. The Parties shall

2.8.6.7.1 If TC SYSTEMS fails to submit the spreadsheet(s) specified in Section 2.8.6.7
above for all of its Embedded Base prior to June 10, 2006, BellSouth will identify
TC SYSTEMS's remaining Embedded Base, if any, and will transition such circuits
to the equivalent tariffed BellSouth service(s). Those circuits identified and
transitioned by BellSouth pursuant to this Section 2.8.6.7.1 shall be subject to all
applicable disconnect charges as set forth in this Agreement and the full
nonrecurring charges for installation of the equivalent tariffed BellSouth service as

2.9 Loop Makeup
2.9.1 Description of Service
2.9.1.1 BellSouth shall make available to TC SYSTEMS LMU information so that TC
SYSTEMS can make an independent judgment about whether the Loop is capable
of supporting the advanced services equipment TC SYSTEMS intends to install
and the services TC SYSTEMS wishes to provide. This section addresses LMU
as a preordering transaction, distinct from TC SYSTEMS ordering any other
service(s). Loop Makeup Service Inquiries (LMUSI) and mechanized LMU
queries for preordering LMU are likewise unique from other preordering functions
with associated SIs as described in this Agreement.
2.9.1.2 BellSouth will provide TC SYSTEMS LMU information consisting of the
composition of the Loop material (copper/fiber); the existence, location and type
of equipment on the Loop, including but not limited to digital loop carrier or other
remote concentration devices, feeder/distribution interfaces, bridged taps, load
coils, pair-gain devices; the Loop length; the wire gauge and electrical parameters.
