arrangement. BellSouth shall allow Shared Collocation within a Remote Site Adjacent
Arrangement pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein.
4. Occupancy
4.1 Occupancy. BellSouth will notify TC SYSTEMS in writing when the Remote
Collocation Space is ready for occupancy (Space Ready Date). TC SYSTEMS will
schedule and complete an acceptance walkthrough of the Remote Collocation Space
with BellSouth within fifteen (15) calendar days of the Space Ready Date. BellSouth
will correct any deviations in TC SYSTEMS’s original or jointly amended application
requirements within seven (7) calendar days after the walkthrough, unless the Parties
mutually agree upon a different time frame. The new Space Ready Date will be
calculated by adding no more than seven (7) calendar days from the date that any
deviations are agreed to by the Parties as a result of the walkthrough, if a walkthrough
has been conducted. The correction of these deviations from TC SYSTEMS’s
original request shall be at BellSouth’s expense. Within fifteen (15) days of the new
Space Ready Date, or as otherwise mutually agreed to by the Parties, another
acceptance walkthrough will be conducted. This follow-up acceptance walkthrough
will be limited to only those items identified in the initial walkthrough. At the end of
the acceptance walkthrough or after all deviations are corrected, TC SYSTEMS will
execute a written document accepting the Remote Collocation Space, and billing will
begin from that date. In the event TC SYSTEMS fails to complete an acceptance
walkthrough within this fifteen (15) calendar day interval, the Remote Collocation
Space shall be deemed accepted by TC SYSTEMS on the most recent Space Ready
Date and billing will commence from that date. If TC SYSTEMS decides to occupy
the space prior to the Space Ready Date, the date TC SYSTEMS occupies the space
is deemed the new Space Acceptance Date and billing will begin from that date. TC
SYSTEMS must notify BellSouth in writing that its collocation equipment installation
is complete and operational with BellSouth’s network. BellSouth may, at its
discretion, refuse to accept any orders for cross-connects until it has received such
notice. For the purposes of this paragraph, TC SYSTEMS’s telecommunications
equipment will be deemed operational when it has been cross-connected to
BellSouth’s network for the purpose of provisioning telecommunication services to its
customers.
4.2 Termination of Occupancy. In addition to any other provisions addressing termination
of occupancy in this Attachment, TC SYSTEMS may terminate occupancy in a
particular Remote Collocation Space, in whole or in part, by submitting an Application
requesting termination of occupancy; such termination shall be effective upon
BellSouth’s acceptance of the Space Relinquishment Form. Billing for monthly
recurring charges will cease on the date TC Systems and BellSouth conduct an
inspection of the terminated space and jointly sign off on the Space Relinquishment
Form or on the date that TC Systems signs off on the Space Relinquishment Form and
sends the form to BellSouth if a subsequent inspection of the terminated space by
