any combination of twenty-five (25) (none of which may have subparts) of the following: interrogatories, demands to produce documents and

process the matter expeditiously. The parties may submit written briefs. The arbitrator shall rule on the dispute by issuing a written opinion
within thirty (30) calendar days after the close of hearings. The times specified in this section may be changed upon mutual agreement of the
parties or by the arbitrator upon a showing of good cause. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court
having jurisdiction.

Service to reflect any change in any applicable tariff or underlying network service or component affecting the Service.

not be construed to be a waiver of such terms in the future. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and
the unenforceable portion shall be construed as nearly as possible to reflect the original intentions of the parties.

Hawaiian Telcom respects your right to privacy. We adhere to a set of privacy principles which form the basis of our privacy policy. When you
visit this site you may provide information on two different levels about your visit:
• Anonymous statistics collected as you browse the site, and
• Personal information you knowingly give us.
We want you to be aware of what information we collect, and how we handle this information. The following areas are discussed in this
privacy policy:
What Information Does The Hawaiian Telcom Website Gather?
How Does Hawaiian Telcom Combat Phishing and Email Spoofing?
Network Performance and Your Internet Connection
What Happens To Information When I Fill Out Registration Forms?
Who Has Access To This Information?
Does This Site Send Email To Site Visitors?

Changes To This Policy
What information does the Hawaiian Telcom Website gather?
Please be assured that we do not collect personal information from you unless you provide it to us. This means that you can visit our
Websites without telling us who you are or revealing any information about yourself (such as your e-mail address, software you are using, or
any information about yourself).
As you browse the site, our web servers collect information about your visit, not about you personally. Via web server logs, we monitor
statistics such as:
• How many people visit our site
• Which pages people visit on our site
• From which domains our visitors come (e.g., aol.com)
• Which browsers people use to visit our site
None of this information is associated with you as an individual. We use these statistics to improve our Website, to monitor its performance,
and to make the Website easier for you and other visitors to use.
What about pages that ask for personal information?
When visitors supply information about themselves for a specific purpose, we use the information for that purpose (such as to provide the
service or information the visitor has requested).
HTP-515 Business Dialup & High Speed Internet Terms Of Service page 16
For example, you may be asked to give us individual information to purchase a product or service, receive information, manage online
account registration, or apply for a job. The information may range from your zip code, to your phone number, account number, a credit card
number, age, gender, mother's maiden name, social security number, e-mail address, organization URL, resume, or mailing address.
When visitors use our Website to order services, we may use this individually identifiable information as we would use the same information
obtained in a traditional non-electronic manner. For example, to publish your name, address, and phone number in our directories (unless
you have requested a non-published number), or to evaluate your service needs and contact you regarding additional services you may find
useful.
Should any changes be made in the way we use personally identifiable information, Hawaiian Telcom may notify you of this change by
posting a notice on its privacy policy Website located at support.hawaiiantel.net/policies/.
How does Hawaiian Telcom combat phishing & email spoofing?
Hawaiian Telcom does not ask you to disclose sensitive personal information such as credit card information or baking information in an
email. If we provide online access to your account, you will be asked to enter your login name and password for authentication purposes.
When receiving emails with links requesting such sensitive information, it is possible they are suspicious forms of Phishing or Email Spoofing.
Phishing emails are attempts to steal consumers' personal identity data and financial account credentials. 'Spoofed' e-mails are those which
mimic an email from a real branded corporate address such as security@ebay.com to lead consumers to counterfeit Websites designed to
trick recipients into divulging financial data such as credit card numbers, account usernames, passwords and social security numbers. When
replying to such emails, the reply often goes somewhere other than the email’s address as sent. This is done by hijacking brand names of
banks, e-retailers and credit card companies, phishers often convince recipients to respond. It is best to simply not respond to such emails,
and contact your bank/financial institution directly to see if there messages or other important information by following normal logon protocols.
Our normal practice is to send you an email confirming significant changes made to your account online, such as, updates to the email
address registered with us, payments on an account, or new services added.
You can protect yourself by regularly logging into your online account to ensure that all transactions are legitimate. Other tips on how you can
protect yourself can be found at http://www.antiphishing.org/consumer_recs.html.
Network performance and your Internet connection
Hawaiian Telcom automatically measures and monitors network performance and the performance of your Internet connection in order to
improve the level of your service. Hawaiian Telcom also will access information about your computer's settings in order to provide customized
technical support. You can be assured that no adjustments to your computer settings will be made without your permission, which you give at
the time that the adjustments are being made, and which you can revoke at any time. Hawaiian Telcom does not share information collected
for the purpose of network or computer performance monitoring or for providing customized technical support outside of Hawaiian Telcom or
its authorized vendors, contractors and agents.
What happens to information when I fill out registration forms?
We encourage all visitors to register with us, although registration is only required for certain transaction-related areas of the
www.hawaiiantel.net or other Hawaiian Telcom or co-branded sites. The registration forms request accurate contact information (like name
and e-mail address) and preferences that help us better serve you. Your name and e-mail address are used to send you information about
our company, product updates, special offers, and newsletters. You may change your email, user ID or password online; or you can choose
to remove your name from our user list by going to contact us and emailing us a request to remove your name from the online billing
application.
For our local phone service customers, you may also be given the option of registering a profile with us (limited to specific areas). This would
store your name, purchase history, and billing information to make it easier for you to shop and purchase products/services from us in the
future. You may opt out of this feature at any time by either selecting “contact us” at www.hawaiiantel.net and emailing us your request or in
some applications you can cancel/change your profile within the application itself.
We strive to ensure that the information we obtain and use about customers is accurate. Please contact us to review or modify any personal
information we have previously collected from you online or if you find an error in your bill. Customers have access to their account
information via our monthly bills. To improve the services we can offer you, we may decide to expand the site's capabilities for obtaining
information about users in the future. We will update this privacy statement continually to ensure that you are aware of developments in this
area.
Who has access to this Information?
Hawaiian Telcom does not sell or disclose individually-identifiable information obtained online, or information about you or your account or
service, to anyone outside of Hawaiian Telcom Services Company, Inc. or its authorized vendors, contractors, affiliates and agents unless
HTP-515 Business Dialup & High Speed Internet Terms Of Service page 17
you specifically authorize it, disclosure is required by law, or deemed necessary by Hawaiian Telcom in its sole discretion to protect the
safety, rights or property of Hawaiian Telcom or any other person or entity. If you provide individually identifiable information to us in the
context of an event Hawaiian Telcom sponsors with another company, such as a contest, or if you register on a co-sponsored site or feature,
you may also be providing the individually identifiable information to the co-sponsor. For example, on Hawaiian Telcom co-branded sites, our
partner will generally co-own the customer information received through the site. How the partner uses this information will be explained in
the privacy statement at the co-branded site, which will govern the use of data gathered through the co-branded site.
Hawaiian Telcom may share non-personally identifiable information with non-Hawaiian Telcom companies in order to assess the results of a
promotion or event. This information is used in aggregate only, and does not contain any information that would personally identify you.
Does this site send e-mail to site visitors?
At times, online surveys are conducted in which you can choose to participate. In addition, we may use e-mail to communicate with our
customers, to respond to visitors' e-mail, to confirm orders placed online, and to send information that a visitor has requested. Occasionally,
we may use opt-in e-mail lists from third parties to promote our latest specials. If you receive an unwanted e-mail from us, you can use the
Reply feature on your browser and simply ask us to remove you from our list.
What are cookies and why do you use them?
A cookie is a small, encrypted data string our server writes to your hard drive that contains your unique User ID for our Website. We may use
cookies to deliver web content specific to your interests, to keep track of your order as you order services, and to control access to our
premium content. A cookie cannot be used to access or otherwise compromise the data on your hard drive. You can choose to change your
browser settings to disable cookies if you do not want us to establish and maintain a unique Hawaiian Telcom User ID. Please be aware that
cookies may be required to complete certain functions on the Hawaiian Telcom Website, such as ordering in our online store.
Do you accommodate links to other sites?
The Hawaiian Telcom Website contains links to other Websites. We are not responsible for the content or the privacy policies employed by
other sites. We are committed to safeguarding customer privacy on all our Websites. We require our employees to protect the privacy of
information about our customers and expect our partners and suppliers to do so as well. You can feel confident that your individually
identifiable information will be protected when you access your account or order services from us over the Internet.
What is Hawaiian Telcom’s position regarding online advertising and third party ad servers?
As part of the online advertising process, we use information supplied from third party companies in several ways however, this is aggregated
data and does not personally identify any individual online user.
This data is used to:
• gain a better understanding of the type of individuals viewing or visiting different Websites,
• evaluate and prioritize site selection when developing online media plans,
• geographically target advertising,
• deliver product and pricing advertising/information applicable to the customers' state, and gauge the effectiveness of our online
advertising.
Personally identifiable information such as name, address, phone number or email address is not collected.
In addition, some Hawaiian Telcom Websites may accept advertisements from third party advertisers. These advertisers are carefully
selected to provide information about products and services that we think may benefit Hawaiian Telcom customers. These third party
advertisers may collect non-personally identifiable information about users of this Website for the same reasons listed above, but personally
identifiable information is not collected. Hawaiian Telcom does not have control of nor access to any information contained in the cookies that
are set by third party advertisers.
Non Personally Identifiable Information
Cookies help Hawaiian Telcom to enhance the user's online experience and are used to:
• deliver the appropriate geographic message
• manage frequency of ad exposure; avoid over delivery of the same message
• tailor an advertisement to better match your interests and preferences
• ensure that you see the correct products and pricing applicable to the state in which you live
• understand advertising effectiveness
HTP-515 Business Dialup & High Speed Internet Terms Of Service page 18
However, customers are free to delete Website cookies. Most internet browsers enable you to erase cookies from your computer hard drive,
block all cookies, or receive a warning before a cookie is stored.
However, you need to understand that some Websites / adserving companies have the ability to reestablish your history even after cookie
deletion, if you reenter the same site on another occasion, or some other site tracked by the adserving company/network, and specifically
provide personal data.
Deletion of cookies alone does not prevent adserving companies from reestablishing history on a visitor. The visitor must either continue to
decline cookies each time it reenters the site to keep the tracking severed, if desired, or opt-out. When you opt-out, your unique user ID
cookie is erased and you are reassigned an anonymous, non-id cookie. This new cookie tells Websites that you have opted out and they will
then know not to attempt to assign other cookies to you in the future. Opt-out cookies do not contain a unique user ID number therefore
Websites are not able to identify your computer uniquely.
Customers who choose to continually delete cookies and not opt out can have their browser advise them each time a Website attempts to
send a cookie to your system. At that time, you can choose to either Accept or Cancel a cookie.
Customers who choose to "opt out" after deleting cookies will receive an anonymous/non personally identifiable cookie.
Personally Identifiable Information
Personally identifiable information voluntarily supplied by our customers or our visitors, i) who receive or provide information on our Website,
or ii) who purchase Hawaiian Telcom products on our Website, or iii) who interact with our banners/advertising on outside Websites, is not
shared for use outside Hawaiian Telcom or its authorized vendors, contractors and agents. This information is Hawaiian Telcom proprietary
data and is not available to any outside company in this personalized form, except with a customer's or visitor's permission or where
disclosure is otherwise required or permitted by law. No outside company is allowed access to this information.
For example, if you provide us with information (such as phone number or email address) and ask to be contacted when High Speed Internet
Service is available in your area, we will notify you when High Speed Internet Access is available; or, if you enter such information online and
qualify for High Speed Internet service, we may contact you to provide additional information and to follow up on your inquiry. If you are
contacted by telephone as a follow up to your inquiry, you may request to be removed from our calling list at that time. We will not use this
information for any other reason nor will we share it with any outside company.
Should any changes be made in the way we use personally identifiable information, Hawaiian Telcom will contact you via email, or by other
means, notifying you of this change, and give you the opportunity to choose to opt-out of such use.
Protection of Children's Personal Information
Hawaiian Telcom Website Services are not designed to attract children under the age of 18. Although we do feature sites that may be of
interest to young viewers, we do not collect personally identifiable information on children. Further, Hawaiian Telcom offers tools for parents
to educate young Internet users on safe surfing practices, including filtering tools to help children and parents avoid objectionable content
online. GetNetWise.org and SafeKids.com are two sites that offer tools for providing information on safe Internet usage. For more information,
go to support.hawaiiantel.net/policies/.
Does Hawaiian Telcom use the information provided online to profile its customers?
The combination of offline and online information provided by the customer has the ability to enhance the customer experience, and make the
consumer's interaction with Hawaiian Telcom more meaningful and relevant. Hawaiian Telcom requires notification of any consumer profiling
or purchasing behavior being captured by Hawaiian Telcom Online and combined with offline information be clearly stated to the consumer at
the time of online data collection. The consumer will have the ability to choose not to have that information aggregated and be part of
subsequent marketing campaigns by choosing to be identified within the application.
Please note
We may disclose personal information when required by law or when necessary to protect the safety of our customers, employees or
property.
Changes to this Policy
Please check this privacy policy periodically to inform yourself of any changes. Although we reserve the right to modify or supplement this
policy, we will provide notice to you on the Website located at support.hawaiiantel.net/policies/ including any major material changes and

other payment mechanisms at the prices in effect when such charges are incurred. You also will be responsible for paying all applicable
HTP-515 Business Dialup & High Speed Internet Terms Of Service page 23

Email Privacy Policies. Hawaiian Telcom Internet is subject to the provisions of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, 18 U.S.C. 2701
et seq, which prohibits an electronic communications service provider from producing the contents of electronic communications, even
pursuant to subpoena or court order, except in limited circumstances. Furthermore, Hawaiian Telcom’s e-mail servers retain e-mail for a
period of only approximately 30 days after the e-mail has been read and left on our servers. After that time, the e-mail may be automatically
deleted. Unread and sent e-mail is preserved on our system for approximately 30 days. If a subscriber deletes any e-mail, that e-mail is
automatically deleted hourly from the Hawaiian Telcom Internet email system. In addition, Hawaiian Telcom Internet subscribers may, at their
election, download e-mail to their computer. Such e-mail is not preserved on Hawaiian Telcom's e-mail system.
Hawaiian Telcom's Unsolicited Bulk Email (Anti-Spam) Policy: Hawaiian Telcom specifically does not authorize the use of its proprietary
computers, servers, routers and computer network (the "Hawaiian Telcom Network") to accept, transmit or distribute unsolicited bulk e-mail
sent from the Internet to Hawaiian Telcom subscribers (or to others). It is also a violation of Hawaiian Telcom policy, and the law, to send or
cause to be sent to, or through, the Hawaiian Telcom Network email that makes use of or contains invalid or forged headers, invalid or nonexistent domain names or other means of deceptive addressing. Hawaiian Telcom considers such email to be unlawful and a violation of our
policy, and any attempt to send or cause such email to be sent to, or through, the Hawaiian Telcom Network is unauthorized. Moreover, any
email relayed from a third party's mail servers without the permission of that third party, or any email that hides or obscures, or attempts to
hide or obscure, the source of an email also constitutes an unauthorized use of the Hawaiian Telcom Network. Email sent or caused to be
sent to the Hawaiian Telcom Network that violates your agreement with Hawaiian Telcom is also unauthorized. Nor does Hawaiian Telcom
authorize the harvesting or collection of screen names from the Hawaiian Telcom Service for the purpose of sending unsolicited email. Any
such action also constitutes violation of Hawaiian Telcom policy.
Hawaiian Telcom's Email Alias Policy: Hawaiian Telcom will issue e-mail aliases based upon availability of the alias requested. If you
surrender your alias by changing it, terminating your account, or because your account is terminated for cause, Hawaiian Telcom shall not be
obligated to reserve that alias for you or to receive or forward emails addressed to that alias. This policy may be changed without notice
