9-1-1 SERVICES, DIGITAL HOME PHONE AND RELATED LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
31. Is 9-1-1 service always available over Digital Home Phone?
No. There are some important differences and limitations in how 9-1-1 calling using Digital Home Phone works, given that it is provided over VoIP technology, when compared to basic and E9-1-1 services that are provided over traditional landline telephone service. Please review this section carefully before activating, installing or using City Wide Digital Home Phone services.
With both traditional basic 9-1-1 and E9-1-1 service, your call is sent directly to the nearest emergency response centre. In addition, with E9-1-1 service, your call back number and last address are visible to the emergency response centre call-taker. With City Wide Digital Home Phone service 9-1-1 calling, your call is sent to a national emergency call centre. When you make a 9-1-1 call using City Wide Digital Home Phone services, you will be asked to confirm your location information regardless of whether that information is visible to the call centre operator. The call centre operator will then transfer your 9-1-1 call to the emergency response centre nearest your location. You should be prepared to provide or confirm your name, address and call-back number with the operator. Do not hang up unless you are told to do so. If your call is disconnected, immediately dial 9-1-1 again.
If you are unable to speak during a 9-1-1 call and the call centre operator has access to a call-back number and the last registered address associated with your City Wide Digital Home Phone service, the operator will transfer the call to the emergency response centre closest to that address. In order for emergency services to be dispatched to the correct address in such cases, you must ensure that the registered address that you have provided to City Wide is always the same as the physical address at which your Digital Home Phone device is located. Whenever you move the physical location of your Digital Home Phone device or you add a line or port a number, you must update your registered address accordingly. You may update your location information by logging-in to your customer portal and changing your recorded location information. Your customer portal can be accessed using the following url: https://myaccount.yourcitywide.com/
You acknowledge and understand that the City Wide Digital Home Phone service or access to the City Wide Digital Home Phone service, including 9-1-1, public alerts or special needs services, may not function correctly, or at all, in the following circumstances:
• If your Equipment fails, is not configured correctly or does not meet City Wide’s requirements;
• In the event of a high-speed Internet service outage, regardless of the supplier providing the high-speed Internet service to you;
• In the event of a network outage or power failure;
• If you or somebody else tampers with or, in some cases, move the Equipment; or
• Following suspension or termination of your City Wide Services or Account.
There may be a greater possibility of network congestion and/or reduced speed in the routing of 9-1-1 calls made utilizing City Wide Digital Home Phone service as compared to traditional 9-1-1 calls dialled over traditional public telephone networks.
City Wide does not currently offer operator service and so emergency services cannot be accessed through an operator by dialing “0”.
You should inform any business or household residents, guests and other persons who may be present at the physical location where you utilize City Wide Digital Home Phone service, of the important differences and limitations of VoIP-based 9-1-1 calling as compared with traditional E-9-1-1 service, as set out above.
32. How does City Wide and City Wide Group limit its liability for Digital Home Phone 9-1-1 services?
City Wide does not have any control over whether, or the manner in which, 9-1-1 calls over City Wide Digital Home Phone service are answered or addressed by any local emergency response centre.. City Wide disclaims all responsibility for the conduct of local emergency response centres and the national emergency calling centre. City Wide relies on third parties to assist it in routing 9-1-1 calls to local emergency response centres and to a national emergency calling centre. City Wide disclaims any and all liability or responsibility in the event such third party data used to route calls is incorrect or yields an erroneous result.
You also acknowledge and agree that, to the maximum extent allowed by law, City Wide Group will not be liable for any injury, death or damage to persons or property, arising directly or indirectly out of, or relating in any way to 9-1-1 calling from your City Wide Digital Home Phone service and you agree to indemnify and hold harmless the City Wide Group for any liabilities, claims, damages, losses and expenses, (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) which you or anyone accessing or attempting to access 9-1-1 calling from your City Wide Digital Home Phone service may suffer or incur, arising directly or indirectly out of or relating to your or that person’s failure to obtain access to 9-1-1 emergency services.
LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION
33. How does City Wide limit its liability?
You agree that, unless otherwise specifically set out in a Service Agreement, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, City Wide Group’s liability for negligence, breach of contract, tort, or other causes of action, including fundamental breach, is limited to a maximum amount equal to the greater of twenty ($20) or an amount equal to the Fees payable during any service outage.
Other than the foregoing payment and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, City Wide Group are not responsible to anyone for:
• Any direct, indirect, special, consequential, incidental, economic or punitive damages (including loss of profit or revenue, financial loss, loss of business opportunities, loss, destruction or alteration of data, files or software, breach of privacy or security property damage, personal injury, death or any other foreseeable or unforeseeable loss, however caused) resulting or relating directly or indirectly to the Service or any advertisements, promotions or statements relating to any of the foregoing, even if we were negligent or were advised of the possibility of such damages;
• The performance, availability, reliability, timeliness, quality, coverage, uninterrupted use, security, pricing or operation of the Service;
• Any error, inclusion or omission with respect to any telephone listings or directories;
• The denial, restriction, blocking, disruption or inaccessibility of any Services, including 9-1-1, public alerts or special needs services, Equipment or Identifiers;
• Any lost, stolen, damaged or expired Equipment, Identifiers, passwords, codes, benefits, discounts, rebates or credits;
• Any error, omission or delay in connection with the transfer of Identifiers to or from another telecommunications service provider or any limitation connected thereto;
• Any acts or omissions of a telecommunications carrier whose facilities are used to establish connections to points that we do not serve; or
• Any claims or damages resulting directly or indirectly from any claim that the use, intended use or combination of the service or any material transmitted through the Services infringes the intellectual property, industrial, contractual, privacy or other rights of a third party.
These limits are in addition to any other limits on City Wide Group’s liability set out elsewhere in the Agreement.
34. Must I indemnify City Wide Group with regards to the Agreement?
Yes. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless City Wide Group from all demands, claims, proceedings, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and other litigation expenses) incurred by or made against City Wide Group, which result from or relate to the Services, your use of the Services or other matters related to this Agreement.

38. What are my obligations if my Service(s) are cancelled or transferred to another provider?

One-time activation and installation Fees are non-refundable.
If Equipment that you have purchased has been shipped prior to Service cancellation, the Fees for the Equipment are non-refundable. One-time activation and installation Fees are intended to recover costs and constitute a genuine pre-estimate of liquidated damages in the event that a month-to-month Service is cancelled. Any Equipment that you rent or that is owned by City Wide must be returned by mail at the address listed in Section 48 within thirty (30) days of the date that Services are cancelled by you or City Wide.

CITY WIDE COMMUNICATIONS INC.
Internet Traffic Management Policy (ITMP)
City Wide invests significantly to ensure that its network is optimally designed and equipped to provide you with high quality telecommunications and broadcasting distribution services. We do our best to prevent network congestion before it happens. However, significant network events that can cause congestion are not always foreseeable or preventable.
When network congestion occurs, we apply certain technical Internet traffic management measures to minimize the impact of network congestion on your quality of experience and preserve the integrity of our network. This Internet Traffic Management Policy (“ITMP”) describes our policies surrounding the use of traffic management measures.
What technical Internet traffic management measures does City Wide use?
We monitor our network and use a system that prioritizes real-time services (for example, voice over Internet Protocol or “VoIP” telephone communications and television services) over other traffic patterns to minimize interruptions or degradations to services that are more sensitive to network congestion. Our system prioritizes traffic by temporarily adjusting bandwidth.
Some of our network providers also apply ITMPs to network resources that are used to provide City Wide’s Internet services. Some of these network providers use time-of-day sensitive traffic management policies that adjust bandwidth for latency insensitive traffic (like file-sharing and peer-to-peer applications). Other network providers explain that their services are subject to Internet traffic management measures during periods of emergency or extreme circumstances or if an end-user’s activity restricts, inhibits or degrades other end-users’ use of the Internet services. In such circumstances, an end-user’s upload traffic may be temporarily limited.
How will ITMPs affect my experience?
For most of our customers, their Internet experience is unaffected by our traffic management measures.
In a period of network congestion, our Internet traffic management measures would allow you to experience more reliable real-time Internet-based services at the cost of reduced bandwidth for lesser priority uses, on a temporary basis.
Does this mean that City Wide monitors the content that I access on the Internet?
No. Our system does not inspect the content of data packets transmitted over your City Wide Internet connection. Your data is personal and confidential. We have no interest in snooping and we value net neutrality. Our network monitoring system simply differentiates traffic patterns that are related to real-time services as opposed to lower priority Internet uses – and makes adjustment to preserve your quality of experience through times of network congestion.
What if I have questions about this ITMP?
If you have questions about City Wide’s ITMP, we are happy to discuss them with you. We can be reached at the contact coordinates listed in Section 48 of the Service Terms.
