The nature of VoIP telephone calls, while appearing similarto traditional telephone calling services, create unique limitations and circumstances, and youacknowledge and agree that differences exist between traditional telephone service and VoIPtelephone services, including the lack of traditional 9-1-1 emergency services.9-1-1 service: Because of the unique nature of VoIP telephone calls, emergency calls to 9-1-1through your VoIP service will be handled differently than traditional phone service. The followingprovisions describe the differences and limitations of 9-1-1 emergency calls, and you herebyacknowledge and understand the differences between traditional 9-1-1 service and VoIP calls withrespect to 9-1-1 calls placed to emergency services from your account as described below.Placing 9-1-1 calls: Due to the limitations of the VoIP telephone services, your 9-1-1 call may berouted differently from 9-1-1 calls made using traditional telephone service. When a 9-1-1emergency call is made, the VoIP service will attempt to automatically route the 9-1-1 call through athird-party service provider, or call center, that will then route the call to a Public Safety AnsweringPoint (“PSAP”) based on registered address information corresponding to your address of record onyour account. For example, your call may be forwarded to a third-party specialized call centre thathandles emergency calls. This third-party service provider is different from the PSAP that wouldanswer a traditional 9-1-1 call which has access to automatically generated end-user addressinformation. Consequently, you may be required to you may be required to provide your name,address, and telephone number to the call centre, and you must be prepared to do so.

How your information is provided: The VoIP service will attempt to automatically provide thePSAP dispatcher or emergency service operator with the name, address and telephone numberassociated with your account. However, for technical reasons, the dispatcher receiving the call maynot be able to capture or retain your name, phone number or physical location. Therefore, whenmaking a 9-1-1 emergency call, you must immediately inform the dispatcher of your location (or thelocation of the emergency, if different).

IF THE PHYSICAL ADDRESS OF YOURVOIP PHONE(S) IS NOT ACCURATE, EMERGENCY SERVICES WILL NOT BE ABLE TOLOCATE YOU IN THE EVENT YOU ARE UNABLE TO SPEAK YOUR ADDRESS OR AREDISCONNECTED DURING A 9-1-1 CALL (EVEN WHEN SERVICE IS AVAILABLE). YOUR CALLMAY BE MISDIRECTED TO AN INCORRECT LOCAL EMERGENCY SERVICE PROVIDER.Disconnections: You must not disconnect the 9-1-1 emergency call until told to do so by thedispatcher, as the dispatcher may not have your number or contact information. If you areinadvertently disconnected, you must call back immediately.Connection time: For technical reasons, including network congestion, it is possible that a 9-1-1emergency call will produce a busy signal or will take longer to connect when compared withtraditional 9-1-1 calls.9-1-1 calls may not function: For technical reasons, the functionality of 9-1-1 VoIP emergencycalls may cease or be curtailed in various circumstances, including, but not limited to:Failure of service or your service access device - if your system access equipment failsor is not configured correctly, or if your VoIP service is not functioning correctly for anyreason, including power outages, VoIP service outage, suspension or disconnection ofyour service due to billing issues, network or Internet congestion, or network or Internetoutage in the event of a power, network or Internet outage; you may need to reset orreconfigure the system access equipment before being able to use the VoIP service,including for 9-1-1 emergency calls; and changing locations - if you move your systemaccess equipment to a location other than that described in your account information orotherwise on record with Genesys.
