Charges.

For most forms of wireless Service, your usage will be charged from the

time you first initiate contact between your phone or other wireless device and the

network until the network connection is broken, whether or not you are successful

in connecting with the service with which you seek to connect, even if the

connection is later broken or dropped. An exception is that you are not charged for

voice calls that are not completed. You are charged for completed calls to your

Number from the time shortly before the phone starts ringing until the call is

terminated. You will be charged peak rates for the entire duration of calls initiated

during the peak time periods applicable to your Service. You will be charged off-

peak rates for the entire duration of calls initiated during the off-peak time periods

applicable to your Service. In addition to these usage charges, you may be charged

for recurring monthly service charges, applicable local and long-distance toll

charges, other usage charges, (including voicemail access, call waiting, call

forwarding, etc.), connection fees, roaming charges, directory assistance, call

completion charges, account review and management charges, optional features

you select at an extra cost, surcharges related to government programs, and taxes.

Charges for most Services are incurred in one-minute increments, with partial

minutes of use rounded up to the next highest minute. You must pay, by each

invoice due date, all charges for Services provided to the Number for each phone or

other equipment that our records show you activated, no matter who actually uses

or has possession of the phone or other equipment at the time Services are

provided.

PCS Vision (Third Generation) Wireless Charges.

For PCS Vision wireless services,

you will be charged on a per kilobyte basis for data used, rather than for airtime

used. As long as your PCS Vision device is connected to the Sprint Nationwide

PCS Network ("PCS Vision network"), you will be incurring data usage charges. You

are responsible for all data activity from and directed to your PCS Phone, regardless

of who initiates the activity. We will invoice you for all data directed to the internet

address (or "IP address") assigned to your device in a given PCS Vision session,

regardless of whether your device actually receives the data. You will be charged

for data usage initiated by others as well as those you initiate. You will be charged

for additional data used in transporting and routing on the network. You will be

charged for partial and interrupted data downloads or other use, including re-sent

data, and for unsuccessful attempts to reach websites and use other applications

and services, including those resulting from dropped network connections. If you

use a Premium Service (including services provided by third parties but for which

you are billed on your PCS Invoice), you will be charged for data used in transport

and routing in addition to the charge for the Premium Service. The amount of data

used and charged to you will vary widely, depending upon the specific PCS Vision

wireless application or other service you use, the amount of data used in the

specific application or service, and network congestion and other matters. For this

and other reasons, estimates of data usage - for example, the size of downloadable

files - will vary from what you actually use. You cannot receive incoming calls

while using third generation services. Data usage will be rounded up to the next

whole kilobyte. Kilobyte usage will be rounded up to the next full cent. Rounding

up will occur at the end of each separate session or each clock hour (at the top of
