Therefore, effective [* * * * * * * * * *], Section 5.3, entitled “Adjustment to Fees,” is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
5.3 Adjustment to Fees.
The Parties acknowledge and agree as follows: (i) the [* * * * * *] adjustment to fees applicable to the [* * * * * *] period beginning [* * * * * * * * * * * * *], was applied prior to the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] to the Agreement ( [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *) ( * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *]”); (ii) as part of the Twelfth Amendment, the Parties agreed to a [* * * * * * * * * ( * * * * *)] adjustment to fees that should apply to the [* * * * * * * * * *] of the [* * * * * *] period beginning [* * * * * * * * * * * * *] (more specifically, the period commencing [* * * * * * * * * *] and ending [* * * * * * * * * * *
* * * *]); and (iii) upon the execution of the Twelfth Amendment, CSG will provide Customer with an updated price file that reflects the then-current fees, as adjusted in accordance with the Twelfth Amendment, except for the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * (" * * *") * * * *] that were set forth in the Twelfth Amendment, which reflect then-current fees, and the applicable fees set forth in the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * (** * * **]). For clarification purposes, the Parties acknowledge the [* * * * * * * * * *] adjustment to fees with respect to the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * (" * * *") * * * *] shall not occur until [* * * * * * * * * * * * *]. During the [* * * *], all fees included in this Agreement, except Materials as defined below, shall be increased [* * * * * * * *] with such adjustment to fees effective on [* * * * * * * *] of the applicable [* * * *], as follows: (A) for the [* * * * * * * * * *] of the [* * * * * *] period beginning [* * * * * * * * * * * * *] (more specifically, the period commencing [* * * * * * * * * *] and ending [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *]), by [* * * * * * * * * * * *- * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ( * * * * *]) and (B) for each [* * * *] thereafter with the [* * * * *] such [* * * *] beginning [* * * * * * * * * * * * *], by [* * * * * * * * *- * * * * * * * * * * * ( * * * *]) (“ [* * * * * *] Adjustment to Fees”). CSG may modify the fees payable by Customer for paper and envelopes (“Materials”) at any time equal to documented increases to Materials costs that may be passed along to CSG from its Materials vendors. For avoidance of doubt, such fees payable by Customer for Materials shall not be subject to any other adjustment under this Section 5.3 other than increases attributable to CSG’s vendors of the Materials as described herein. In addition, CSG agrees to pass through to Customer the amount of any documented decrease in Materials costs that may be provided to CSG from its Material vendors. Customer will be notified in writing (e-mail shall suffice) of any Materials price increases or decreases no less than [* * * * * * ( * *) * * * *] prior to the application of such change. CSG will provide to Customer, no later than the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] of each [* * * *] during the Term, a price file reflecting the then-current price for each Product and Service included in Schedule F. However, the prices described in Schedule F, as adjusted in accordance with this Section 5.3 and reflected on the [* * * * * *] Adjustment to Fees, shall govern in the event of a discrepancy in the price file and any of the foregoing. If CSG or Customer determines that it has any inquiries or problems or believes there are errors or discrepancies with respect to any amounts identified in the price file, either party shall notify the other party (e-mail shall suffice) and the parties shall discuss such discrepancy and come to resolution within [* * * * * * ( * *) * * * *] of the date of such discrepancy notice.
7. CSG and Customer agree that based upon the [* * * * * * * * * * * * *] of the [* * * * * * *] BSC for video and high speed data, and residential voice Services into the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fee and the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fee, it is necessary to amend other provisions of the Agreement as a matter of cleanup. Therefore, effective [* * * * * * * * * *], the following amendments are hereby made to the Agreement:
7.a. Section 6.2, entitled “Transition Assistance,” Subsection (a), is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
(a)Customer (i) meets the minimum commitment of [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] charged at the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] rate during the Transition Assistance Period and pays [* * * * * *- * * * * ( * *) * * * * * *] of the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fee, or (ii) pays any shortfalls related to the minimum commitment articulated in (i) above.
7.b. Section 6.4, entitled “Discontinuance Fee,” Subsection (a), entitled “Non-Print and Mail Processing,” is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
6.4 Discontinuance Fee. (a) Non-Print and Mail Processing. The Parties have mutually agreed upon the fees for non-Print and Mail Products and Services provided hereunder based upon certain [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *], and the [* * * *] of this Agreement. Customer understands that without the certainty of [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] set forth in this Agreement, CSG would have been unwilling to provide the Products and Services in accordance with the terms set forth herein. Because of the difficulty in ascertaining CSG’s actual damages for a termination of this Agreement by Customer without cause or other breach of this Agreement by Customer resulting in termination of this
Agreement by CSG, Customer agrees that, upon termination of this Agreement in its entirety for reasons other than by a Party pursuant to [* * * * * * * * * * *] or by Customer pursuant to [* * * * * * * * * *( *) * ( *) * ( *) * * ( *)], in addition to all other amounts then due and owing to CSG for Products and Services previously rendered, Customer will pay to CSG (as a liquidated damage and not as a penalty) an amount equal to the [* * *] of (i) and (ii) in which (i) equals the [* * * * * * *] of (a) the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fee [* * * * * * * * * *] by (b) the remaining [* * * * * *] in the Term, and in which (ii) equals the [* * * * * * *] of (a) the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fee [* * * * * * * * * *] by (b) the unfulfilled portion of the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] (the “Termination Discontinuance Fee (Processing)”). Customer agrees that such amount is a reasonable estimation of the actual damages which CSG would suffer if CSG were to fail to receive the business contemplated in this Agreement. The Parties agree that, excluding any other undisputed amounts due and owing to CSG at the time of such breach, the liquidated damages for non-Print and Mail Products and Services set forth in this section 6.4 shall be available to CSG only as set forth expressly in this subsection (a) to section 6.4, and, except as provided in subsection (b) to section 6.4, such liquidated damages shall be CSG’s sole and exclusive remedy at law or equity for termination of this Agreement prior to the Term.
7.c. Section 12.7, entitled “Sale of [* * * * * *],” is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
12.7 Sale of [* * * * * *]. In the event that Customer [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *], or Charter becomes [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *], prior to the expiration of the then current Term to an * * * * * * * * * third party (a “Successor Entity”), Customer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assign or transfer this Agreement to the Successor Entity. In the event that such Successor Entity does not assume this Agreement, regardless of whether by contract or operation of law, or otherwise include the Connected Subscribers under this Agreement in such Successor Entity’s separate agreement with CSG, which must be executed within [* * * ( *) * * * * * *] of Customer’s [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *], either Party may terminate this Agreement and Customer agrees to pay to CSG (as a liquidated damage and not as a penalty), in addition to any other undisputed amounts due under this Agreement, an amount equal to the [* * *] of (i) and (ii) in which (i) equals the [* * * * * * *] of (a) the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fee [* * * * * * * * * *] by (b) the remaining [* * * * * *] in the Term [* * * * * * * * * *] by (c) [* * * * * * *- * * * * * * * * * * * ( * * *]), and in which (ii) equals the [* * * * * * *] of (a) the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fee [* * * * * * * * * *] by (b) the unfulfilled portion of the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] by (c) [* * * * * * *- * * * * * * * * * * * ( * * *]) (for purposes of this Section 12.7 the “Assignment Discontinuance Fee (Non-Print and Mail)”). For clarification, the Parties agree Customer’s payment obligations provided in Section 1.2 Term shall apply to the Additional Term in the event of a sale as provided herein during the Additional Term. In addition to the Assignment Discontinuance Fee (Non-Print and Mail), Customer agrees to pay CSG (as a liquidated damage and not as a penalty), an amount equal to (i) Customer’s average [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] volume during the [* * * ( *) * * * * * *] immediately preceding the termination date [* * * * * * * * * *] by (ii) the [* * *] of the then-current * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * statement processing rate provided in Schedule F [* * * *] the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] rate provided in Schedule F [* * * * * * * * * *] by (iii) the remaining [* * * * * *] in the Term [* * * * * * * * * *] by (iv) [* * * * * * *- * * * * * * * * * * * ( * * *]) (for purposes of this Section 12.7 the “Assignment Discontinuance Fee (Print and Mail)”). Customer agrees that such amounts are a reasonable estimation of the actual damages which CSG would suffer if CSG were to fail to receive the business contemplated in this Agreement as a result of events occurring under this section 12.7.
In the event that CSG sells, divests or otherwise transfers all or substantially all of its assets, or CSG otherwise becomes subject to a [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *], CSG shall assign or transfer this Agreement to the transferee upon notice to Customer and Customer will consent to such notice in advance; provided, however, if such assignment or transfer will be made to any [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ( * * * * * * ** * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *]), or with any of their Affiliates or successors (each a “Charter [* * * * * * * * * *]”), CSG may not assign or transfer this Agreement without the consent of Customer, which will not be withheld or delayed unreasonably. If CSG assigns this Agreement to, or becomes subject to the direct or indirect control of, any Charter [* * * * * * * * * *], and Customer has a reasonable basis for objecting to such assignment, Customer may terminate this Agreement at any time within the [* * * * * * ( * *) * * * * *] period following such assignment or change of Control and convert the Connected Subscribers to another provider, with no Termination Liability to CSG.
8. CSG and Customer desire to amend the Agreement to increase the amount of the security deposit CSG holds for Customer’s postage. Therefore, Schedule C, Recurring Services, Exhibit C-2, Print and Mail Services, Section 3, Deposit, is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
3. Deposit. As of the Effective Date of this Agreement, CSG holds a security deposit equal to the estimated amount of disbursements for [* * * * *- * * * * ( * *) * * * *] as reasonably determined by CSG based upon the projected volume of applicable services to be performed [* * * * * * *] by CSG (the “Deposit”) for the payment of the expenses described in Sections 2 and 3 of this Exhibit C-2 (the “Disbursements”). If Customer incurs Disbursements greater than the Deposit for any [* *- * * *] period, Customer shall, within [* * * * * ( * *) * * * * * * * * * * * *] of receipt of a request from CSG to increase the Deposit, pay CSG the additional amount to be added to the Deposit. CSG will return to Customer a portion of the Deposit if the Disbursements incurred by Customer on a [* * * * * * *] basis are less than the Deposit for [* * * * * ( *) * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *]. In addition to the foregoing, CSG shall have the right to apply the Deposit to the payment of any invoice from CSG which remains unpaid following the termination or expiration of this Agreement. Any portion of the Deposit that remains after the payment of all amounts due to CSG following the termination or expiration of this Agreement will be returned to Customer. Customer shall not be entitled to receive interest on the Deposit while it is maintained by CSG.

In the event (i) Customer provides CSG with at least [* * * * * * * * ( * *) * * * * * *] advance written notice of Customer’s anticipated date of completion of a [* * * * * * * * *] of any remaining subscribers of Customer’s video, high speed data and voice subscribers from [* * *’ * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *’ * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ( * * * “ * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *]”); (ii) such anticipated date of completion is no earlier than [* * * * * *- * * * * * * * * *] prior to the end of the [* * * * * * * * * * *] and no later than [* * * * * * ( * *) * * * * * *] prior to the end of the [* * * * * * * * * * ]*; and (iii) Customer has demonstrated reasonable progress towards the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] by such date communicated by Customer, then the Parties agree to discuss in good faith the possibility of CSG [ * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] with the understanding that the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] shall be made by CSG, in its sole and absolute discretion, and will require the Parties to enter into a mutually agreed upon amendment to the Agreement setting forth the terms and conditions related to the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *].
Note 2: For clarification purposes, effective [* * * * * * * * * *], Customer is no longer eligible for and shall not receive the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] as described in Schedule F of the Agreement.

Note 1: With regard to the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fee (per [* * * * * * * * * *]), the rates applicable to an [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] shall apply until such subscriber no longer meets the definition of an [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] due to full [* * * * * * * * *] from CSG’s [* * * * * * * * * * *] to CSG’s [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *]. As an example, if a subscriber has Customer’s Video service on CSG’s [* * * * * * * * * * *] and has Customer’s Cable and HSD services on CSG’s [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *], such subscriber shall be considered an [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] and be charged the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fee as such subscriber has not fully [* * * * * * * *] to CSG’s [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *]. For avoidance of doubt, during a single [* * * * * * * * * * * * * *] period, CSG shall not charge Customer both the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fee (per [* * * * * * * * * *]) and the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fee (per [* * * * * * * * * *]) for the same subscriber referenced in the preceding sentence. Also, for avoidance of doubt, the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fees applicable to the purchase of one or more [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] (e.g., Customer’s [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *]), as further described in [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ( * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *]), are in addition to the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fee (per [* * * * * * * * * *]) and the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fee (per [* * * * * * * * * *]), as the case may be.
Note 2: Section 5.3 of the Agreement, Adjustment to Fees, does not apply to (i) the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fee (per [* * * * * * * * * *]) until [* * * * * * * * * * * * ]*, and (ii) the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fee (per [ * * * * * * * * * *]) until [* * * * * * * * * * * * *].

Note 1: CSG will support only the current release plus the * * * * * ( *) prior releases of SLBOS at any given time as such versions are defined by CSG, in its sole discretion. If Customer desires to continue maintenance coverage and CSG support, Customer shall be required to upgrade its production version of SLBOS, so as to maintain currency within its application and ensure CSG’s ability to support Customer’s version of the interface.
Note 2: All installation and startup services and the associated fees shall be set forth in a mutually agreed upon Statement of Work.
Note 3: Quote relates to interface development services and technical services requested by Customer relating to the client side integration of Customer’s third party applications. All interface development services and Technical Services and the associated fees shall be set forth in a mutually agreed upon Statement of Work.
Note 4: Any interfaces, accomplished by Customer through any allowable and available SLBOS API and/or ENI API, must be certified by CSG prior to integration of such interfaces. The standard interface certification services shall be quoted using a [* * * * * * * * * * ( * *) * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ]. Additional fees will be charged to implement the transaction(s) into each applicable environment.

CSG will not unreasonably withhold certification of any interface.
Note 5: CSG agrees to begin invoicing Customer at the Reduced Fee Processing Level: [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *], plus any Additional [* * *], effective [* * * * * * * * * *]. CSG’s obligation to honor the Reduced Fee Processing Level: [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ]*, plus any Additional [* * *], is contingent upon Customer’s [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ( * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *]), as determined by the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fees, (i) reaching the [* * * * * * * * * * *] on or before [* * * * * * * * * * * * *], and (ii) staying at or above the [* * * * * * * * * * *] during the Term of the Agreement. In the event contingency (i) is not met or contingency (ii) ceases to be met by Customer, CSG (a) shall return to invoicing Customer, and Customer agrees to pay, at the Normal Fee Process Level: [ * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *], plus any Additional [* * *], and (b) Customer agrees to pay any difference between the fees at the Reduced Fee Processing Level and the fees at the Normal Fee Processing Level for any period in which Customer’s [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ( * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *[), as determined by the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fees, was not at or above the [* * * * * * * * * * *].
Note 6: Customer’s SLBOS [* * *] processing will be reviewed and adjusted on a [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] basis at the end of the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] during the Term (or any extended term) of the Agreement and the Transition Assistance Period. For the purpose of determining the [* * *] processing level applicable to the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *], the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] measurements (as measured per Note 7 below) on [* * * * * ( *) * * * * * * * * * * * * *] for each of the [* * * * * ( *) * [* * * * *] of the then-ending [* * * * * * *] will be combined to create a list of [* * * * * *- * * * ( * *)] measurements (the “ [* * * * * * * * * * * *] Measurement List”). CSG shall provide a copy of the [* * * * * * * * *] Measurement List to Customer no later than the [* * * * * ( * * *) * * * * * * * * * * *] of the [* * * * *] immediately following the end of the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *]. The lowest [* * *] value on the [* * * * * * * * * * * *] Measurement List (“Determining [* * *[ Value”) will be the [* * *] value used to determine the [ * * *] processing level applicable going forward for the next [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] (“New [* * *]”). CSG will begin invoicing Customer for the New [* * *] in the [* * * * * immediately following the end of the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *]. For clarification purposes, SLBOS Fees shall in no event be less than the minimum of the [* * *] processing level supporting up to each [* * *] level as prescribed by the Transition Phase table in Note 5 specified above.
Note 7: [* * *] measurements will consist of the average of measurements taken over [* * * * * * * ( * *) * * * * * *] intervals. The [* * * * * * * ( * *) * * * * * *] intervals will be calculated [* * * *] times an [* * * *]: from : ]* * - * * : * *; : * *-: * *; : * *-: * *; * * * : * *-: * * * * * * * * * *]. During any one [* * * * * * * ( * *) * * * * * *] period, the total number of transactions will be counted and then will be divided by [* * * * * * * * * * * ( * * *)] to create the [* * *] measurements.
Note 8: SLBOS “requests” shall include any upstream transaction that is generated by or on behalf of Customer from either a Customer or a third party application, excluding transactions associated with [( *) * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ( * *) * * *’ * * * * * * * * * * * ( * * *) * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Note 9: The [* * *] processing capacity tiers referenced in the table above are subject to normal transactional distribution during business hours. Customer agrees to maintain peak [* * *] below [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ( * * ]* *) of Customer’s then current processing level during non-business hours.
12. CSG and Customer agree to amend the Agreement to address a new requirement under PCI-DSS related to multi-tenant service providers. Therefore, the Agreement is hereby amended by adding a new Section 9.2, entitled “Ascendon System Access,” to Article 9, Miscellaneous, of Exhibit C-12, Ascendon Services, to provide as follows:
9.2 Ascendon System [* * * * * *]. Customer acknowledges and agrees that in order to provide the Ascendon Services and the Customer Solution, CSG must have [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] to the Ascendon System and the Customer Solution unless and to the extent that this [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] is restricted by applicable law. To protect Customer’s data within the Customer Solution and the Ascendon System, in accordance with CSG’s data security obligations in Sections 10.6 -10.9 (i) will ensure Customer Data in the Customer Solution and Ascendon System has a [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] from data that belongs to third parties within the multi-tenant environment of Ascendon System, and (ii) will ensure that only [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] the Ascendon System and the Customer Solution.
13. CSG and Customer agree that based upon the restructuring of the [* * * * * * *] BSC for video and high speed data, and residential voice Services into the [ * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fee and the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] Fee, the [* * * * * * * * * * * * *] shall expire and Customer shall no longer entitled to the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] effective [* * * * * * * * * *]. Therefore, effective [* * * * * * * * * *], the following amendments are hereby made to the Agreement:
13.a. Section 6.1(e) is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
(e) Customer may terminate this Agreement on [* * * ( *) * * * * * *]’ notice, if at any time (i) CSG processes on its platform [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ( * * * * * * * * * *) * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] on its [* * * * * */ * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *], and (ii) CSG’s development of the Products and Services fails to meet material industry milestones related to North American cable and direct broadcast satellite communications industries (including FCC mandates and other federal regulatory requirements) or a [* * * * * * * *] of such development activities are intended to serve an industry vertical other than the North American cable and direct broadcast satellite communications industries, subject to reimbursement by Customer of [* * * * * * * * * * * * ( * * *) * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] actually paid to Customer under this Agreement. CSG agrees to certify on an annual basis (between January and March of each year beginning in calendar year 2023) to the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] on CSG’s platform. CSG may provide such certification to Customer via email to Customer’s Senior Vice President of Customer’s Billing Strategy and Operations or a Customer representative of similar or higher authority.
13.b. Schedule F (Fees), Section entitled “ [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *],” is hereby amended to add the following sentence to the end of the initial paragraph (and before Example 1):
“The Parties acknowledge and agree that effective [* * * * * * * * * *], (i) the [* * * * * * * * * * * * *] expired, and (ii) Customer is no longer eligible for and shall not receive the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *], as described in Schedule F of the Agreement. For clarification purposes, Customer’s obligation to reimburse any portion of the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *] actually paid to Customer, as required under the Agreement, shall remain in effect.”
14. CSG and Customer desire to amend the Agreement to remove the [* * *- * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * provisions related to the [* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *]. Therefore, Schedule
