See Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Page 5 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 REPRESENTATION OF MANAGEMENT The interim financial data are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, the interim data include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures included herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Note 2 EARNINGS PER SHARE The Earnings per Share calculation is based on average shares outstanding of 6,816,394 for the quarter ending March 31, 1998. These calculations assume all shares issued prior to the Company's initial public offering in September 1996, were outstanding during all periods presented, including shares issueable under debenture and preferred stock conversions, and shares relating to stock options, calculated using the treasury stock approach. All stock options and warrants issued during or subsequent to the Company's initial public offering are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as they would have an antidilutive effect on earnings per share. NOTE 3 INCREASE IN AUTHORIZED SHARES The first stockholders' meeting was held on March 12, 1998. At this time the stockholders approved an amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company's common stock from 10,000,000 to 25,000,000. NOTE 4 1998 EMPLOYEES' STOCK OPTION PLAN On March 12, 1998, the stockholders approved an employee incentive stock option plan. This plan reserves 266,544 shares of Common Stock for issuance over the ten-year term of the plan. NOTE 5 APPROVAL OF 401K PLAN The Board of Directors has approved a 401(k) Savings and Retirement Plan that will cover substantially all employees effective January 16, 1998. The Company's contributions to the Plan will be determined annually by the Board of Directors. Page 6 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. Certain information contained in this Form 10-QSB, including "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" , contain forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements herein are based on current expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that the Company will continue to design, market and provide successful new services, that competitive conditions will not change materially, that demand for the Company's services will continue to grow, that the Company will retain and add qualified personnel, that the Company's forecasts will accurately anticipate revenue growth and the costs of producing that growth, and that there will be no material adverse change in the Company's business. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking information included in this Form 10-QSB, actual results could differ materially from the forward-looking information contained in this Form 10-QSB. Year 2000 Risks. Currently, many computer systems, hardware, and software products are coded to accept only two digit entries in the date code field and, consequently, cannot distinguish 21st century dates from 20th century dates. As a result, many companies' software and computer systems may need to be upgraded or replaced in order to comply with such "Year 2000" requirements. The Company and third parties with which the Company does business rely on numerous computer programs in their day to day operations. The Company has begun the process of identifying computer systems that could be affected by the Year 2000 issue but has not estimated the costs of addressing the Year 2000 issue as it relates to Company's internal hardware and software, as well as third party computer systems with which the Company interacts. In the event that the Company acquires other assets or businesses, the software and hardware acquired by the Company in connection with those business combinations may also be Year 2000 non-compliant. There can be no assurance that the Year 2000 issues will be resolved in 1998 or 1999. The Company may incur significant costs in resolving its Year 2000 issues. If not resolved, this issue could have a significant adverse impact on the Company's business, operating results, financial condition, and cash flow. The Company's common stock is traded on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market. The Directors of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. changed Nasdaq Listing Requirements. A minimum maintenance standard of two million dollars in net tangible assets is included in the new listing requirements. As of March 31, 1998, the Company's net tangible assets are approximately $785,000 below the $2,000,000 minimum requirement for listing. On May 15, 1998, Mr. Douglas H. Hanson exercised 421,053 warrants (each warrant was exercised at a price of $1.90 for one share of common stock) resulting in a total infusion of equity of $800,000. Listed below is the proforma balance sheets reflecting the effect of the infusion of the equity based on the March 31, 1998 balance sheet, assuming the transaction occurred as of that date. The proforma balance sheet is not indicative of the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 1998. Page 7 ROCKY MOUNTAIN INTERNET, INC. CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS (UNAUDITED) ASSETS

Page 9 This investment brings the Company into compliance with the Nasdaq Small Cap Market listing requirements. See LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES below for additional discussion of this matter. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS The Company is implementing several new service offerings which will be generating revenues subsequent to the period covered by this Form 10-QSB. NATIONAL INTERNET PROVIDER Effective March 11, 1998, the Company entered into an agreement with PSINet, Inc., (refer to Exhibit 10.13: PSINet Wholesale Usage Agreement) whereby the Company obtains access to PSINet's network to provide the Company's customers access to dialup and "switched" network access in over 235 locations nationally. The agreement allows the Company to expand service nationally to provide dial up and ISDN services in each of the locations serviced by PSINet. Customers will receive technical support, e-mail services, news services, etc., from the Company's servers, providing a "private label" solution to the anticipated new customer base. IP TELEPHONY The Company is expanding its communication services in order to provide a more complete product offering to its customers. The Company has announced its intent to provide long distance services using Internet Protocol ("IP") telephony at $0.07 per minute within the continental United States to customers in Denver, Boulder, and Colorado Springs, Colorado areas. COMPETITIVE LOCAL EXCHANGE CARRIER The Company filed an application in March, 1998 with the Colorado PUC to become a Competitive Local Exchange Carrier ("C-LEC"). A wholly owned subsidiary, Rocky Mountain Broadband, Inc., has been formed for providing these services. On April 22, 1998, The Public Utilities Commission of the State of Colorado granted the request by Rocky Mountain Broadband, Inc. to become a C-LEC. Refer to Exhibit 10.15: "Order Granting a Certificate to Provide Local Exchange Telecommunications Services." RISK FACTORS The Company may experience fluctuations in operating results in the future caused by various factors, some of which are outside of the Company's control, including general economic conditions, specific economic conditions in the Internet access industry, user demand for the Internet, capital expenditures and other costs relating to the expansion of operations, the timing and number of customer subscriptions, the introduction of new services by the Company or its competitors, the mix of services sold and the mix of distribution channels through which those services are sold. In addition, the Company's expenses, including but not limited to obligations under equipment leases, facilities leases, telephone access lines, and Internet access are relatively fixed in the short term, and therefore variations in the timing and amount of revenues could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations. Page 10 TERMINATION OF THIRD PARTY AGREEMENT The Company and Zero Error Networks ("ZEN"), a third party with which the Company had contacted as described below under "Dial-Up Service," signed a "TERMINATION AGREEMENT" effective July 3, 1997, which affects four points of presence (POP) located in Pueblo, Hayden, Leadville, and Alamosa, Colorado. These POPs have been operated under a revenue and expense sharing contract between the two parties. The Termination Agreement calls for ZEN to operate the Hayden, Leadville, and Alamosa, Colorado locations and receive the rights to the customer base currently existing in those locations while the Company will operate and maintain the customer base in Pueblo and surrounding areas. The transition occurred during the months of July, August, and December of 1997. The Termination Agreement includes a limited non-compete clause wherein neither party may directly solicit the existing customer base of the other for a period of one year. The net effect of the Termination Agreement on net income is expected to be neutral in the short run and have a positive long term result. The Pueblo revenues are expected to grow at a faster rate than the other three POP's combined and the Company plans to focus additional effort to selling dedicated access in the Pueblo market. However, there can be no assurance that the Company's efforts will be successful or that the long-term effects of the Termination Agreement on net income will be positive. Page 11 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 AND 1998 The Company has a net loss applicable to common shareholders of $914,637 and $1,314,350 for the first quarters of 1997 and 1998 respectively for an increase in the loss of 58%. Based on earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA") the loss was $637,427 for the first quarter of 1997 as compared to $993,552 for the first quarter of 1998. During the first quarter of 1998, the Company recorded a non-cash compensation expense of $383,077 for employee stock options, which is included in the EBITDA and net loss calculations. If this non-cash compensation item is removed from the EBITDA calculation then the loss decreased by 4% from $637,427 for the first quarter of 1997 to $610,475 for the first quarter of 1998. The resulting loss per share for these items are presented in the following schedule. First Quarter 1997 First Quarter 1998 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Type of Loss Loss Loss Per Loss Loss Per Share Share - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net Loss $(914,637) $ (0.19) $(1,314,350) $ (0.19) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net Loss adjusted for non-cash compensation $(914,637) $ (0.19) $ (931,273) $ (0.14) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EBITDA Loss $(637,427) $ (0.13) $ (993,552) $ (0.15) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EBITDA Loss adjusted for non-cash compensation $(637,427) $ (0.13) $ (610,475) $ (0.09) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effective January 16, 1997, the Company acquired dial-up and dedicated access subscribers from Online Network Enterprises, Inc. (ONE), a Boulder, Colorado, based provider of Internet access and Web services for consideration consisting of $150,000 of cash and 116,932 shares of the Company's common stock. The Company's revenues grew 27% from $1,397,283 to $1,779,285 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 as compared to the comparable period in 1997. Listed below is a breakdown of the revenue billing categories.
Three Months Ended March 31 Revenue 1997 1998 %Change Dial-Up Service $ 595,686 565,263 ( 5%) Dedicated Access Service $ 347,592 798,394 130% Web Services $ 216,472 314,341 45% Equipment Sales $ 83,244 65,969 ( 21%) Other $ 153,963 35,318 ( 77%) Total $1,396,957 1,779,285 27%
DIAL-UP SERVICE Page 12 The Company's strategy is to provide an high quality service with few busy signals. In the past the Company was not prepared to offer flat rate pricing for unlimited access service, however, on November 4, 1997, the Company announced a flat rate offering to the Denver, Colorado and Boulder Colorado markets. This offering has become more economically attractive than in the past due to lower costs for circuits and a lower cost per port for dial up access. The new offering includes higher speed modem access using K 56 Flex technology. The table below shows the composite weighted average billing rate for full service Internet access by quarter for 1995, 1996, and 1997. The reduction in the average rate for September 1997 is the result of a change in the average rates resulting from the termination of Dial-Up Service contracts with third parties in Alamosa and Leadville. The remaining contracts with other third parties provide an higher percentage of lower rate services. Effective with the December 1997 billings, most Denver and Boulder, Colorado area customers who were on payment plans over $19.95 per month were converted to the new $19.95 flat rate service, resulting in a lower average billing rate. The full effect of the conversions occurred during the last quarter of 1997 and the first quarter of 1998. The Company expects the average revenue per dial-up customer to stabilize contingent upon the current pricing remaining in effect.
For the Three Months Ended Mar Jun Sep Dec Mar Jun Sep Dec 1995 1995 1995 1995 1996 1996 1996 1996 $20.52 $20.42 $20.88 $21.02 $20.97 $20.33 $20.41 $20.50
Mar Jun Sep Dec Mar 1997 1997 1997 1997 1998 $20.10 $20.04 $19.65 $18.62 $17.98
The Company experienced a 5% revenue reduction in Dial-Up Service from the first quarter of 1997 as compared to the first quarter of 1998 from $595,360 to $565,263. The decrease is the result of a combination of the reduction in average customer revenues resulting from the new flat rate pricing offered and a reduction in revenues from business alliances as explained in the following paragraph. Dial-up Services have been split approximately evenly between commercial and residential customers throughout 1995, 1996, 1997, and 1998 based on customer count. Based on revenue the split between commercial and residential customers is 35% to 65% respectively. RMI has established business alliances through contracts with three, locally- based unrelated parties for the purpose of providing Internet services in secondary markets in the State of Colorado. The services are provided under a written contract that provides for the locally-based party to provide equipment and marketing services while RMI provides Internet access and administrative services. Dial-up revenues based on these contracts generated $127,534 in revenues for the first quarter of 1997 and $59,937 in revenues for the first quarter of 1998 for a decrease of 53%. The POPs established pursuant to these contracts Page 13 began in the second quarter of 1995 and grew to six locations by the end of 1995 and nine locations by the end of 1996. Effective July 3, 1997, the contract with Zero Error Networks was terminated. Under the termination agreement, the Company will operate the Pueblo POP as a Company only location and ZEN will operate Alamosa, Leadville, and Hayden locations. A similar contract in Grand Junction, Colorado was terminated by the Company effective April 30, 1997. The marketing efforts by the locally-based third party in this location were minimal and sales were less than $1,000 per month. The Company is operating this facility as a Company only location at this time. DEDICATED ACCESS SERVICE Dedicated access services are primarily provided to commercial customers and include a wide range of connectivity options tailored to the requirements of the customer. These services include private port (dedicated modem), Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) connections, 56 Kbps frame relay connections, T- 1 (1.54 Mbps) frame relay connections, point to point connections, and T-3 (45 Mbps) or fractional T-3 connections. The Company also offers a colocation service in which the customer's equipment is located in the RMI data center, thereby providing access to the Internet directly through the Company's connection. Dedicated business has grown based principally on ISDN and high speed circuits (56K, DS-1, and DS-3) growth. ISDN sales have grown from $107,404 to $209,061 from first quarter 1997 to first quarter 1998 for an increase of 95%, while high speed circuits have increased from $208,027 to $531,509 for the same periods for an increase of 156%. The table below shows the quarterly customer count by each of the component services offered for dedicated access as of the dates indicated:

WEB SERVICES Page 14 Web services revenues are composed of Web page hosting and Web page production and Web page marketing. Web page hosting provides ongoing revenue from customers for whom RMI hosts a Web site on Web servers in the RMI data center. All access made to these Web Sites by the customer and the Internet community as a whole are processed on the RMI servers. The advantage to customers is high speed access to sites by their targeted audiences. The following is a summary of the number of Web hosting customers as of the dates indicated:
Mar Jun Sep Dec Mar Jun Sep Dec 1995 1995 1995 1995 1996 1996 1996 1996 1 21 45 90 157 217 242 341 Mar Jun Sep Dec Mar 1997 1997 1997 1997 1998 418 424 417 428 448
Web page hosting accounted for $104,693 of revenue in the first quarter of 1997 and $138,201 in the first quarter of 1998 for an increase of 32%. Web page production increased from $113,914 for the first quarter 1997 to $144,585 for the first quarter 1998 for an increase of 27%. The Company added a new service, Web page marketing, to customers in late 1997. For the first quarter of 1998, revenues of $22,006 were recognized for this service. Web page marketing offers the customer a service wherein the Company optimizes the position in Web search engines for a customer's site based on queries by selected key words. This service results in a significant increase in the level of traffic for a Web site. OTHER REVENUE Other revenue includes training revenue ($7,812 decreased to $4,595), consulting ($109,286 decreased to $4,001)and sales from the Information Exchange, a voice messaging subsidiary ($36,866 decreased to $26,722). The Information Exchange was acquired in a stock transaction in late 1996. The reduction in consulting revenue occurred due to a large consulting contract in the first quarter of 1997 which was concluded and no similar consulting arrangement occurred in the first quarter of 1998. GROSS PROFIT Gross profit consists of total revenue less the cost of delivering services and equipment. The gross profit from Internet access and services was 67% of revenues from that segment for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 65% for the same period in 1998. The reduction in gross profit is principally the result of offering a flat rate dial-up product which required a decrease in customers to modem ratios, resulting in higher circuit and equipment costs. Gross profits on equipment sales were approximately equal at 23% for both comparative periods. Sale of equipment is provided as an accommodation to the Company's customers and gross profit margin may vary considerably based on the mix of products sold. Page 15 SELLING, GENERAL, AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES General selling and administrative expenses ("G S & A") increased from approximately $1,708,306 in the first quarter of 1997 to approximately $2,473,421 in the first quarter of 1998 or 45%. Exclusive of option compensation expense, discussed in the following paragraph, G S & A increased 16% from the first quarter 1997 to the first quarter of 1998. Significant items are discussed below. Payroll costs and benefits increased 53% from $957,911 to $1,465,806 for the periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1998 respectively. Payroll costs included a non-cash charge to compensation for the first quarter of 1998 in the amount of $383,077 for the exercise of employee stock options. Exclusive of this amount payroll costs and related benefits increased 12%. Sales and marketing expenses consisting of advertising, promotion, attendance at trade shows, printing, and finders fees increased from $47,675 for three months ending March 31, 1997 to $49,291 for the same period in 1998 for an increase of 3.4%. Facilities rent expense increased by 3% from $109,544 to $112,891 for the first quarter of 1997 to the first quarter 1998. The Company has headquarters in downtown Denver, Colorado with additional office facilities in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The Company experienced a decrease in communications expense from $74,229 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 to $61,176 for the quarter ended March 31,1998 or 18%. These expenses included local telephone service, cellular phones and pager costs and long distance telephone expenses. The Company uses multiple "800" phone numbers to provide technical support, customer support, and sales order processing to its growing base of customers. Legal and accounting expenses increased from $68,603 in the first quarter of 1997 to $216,773 in the first quarter of 1998 or an increase of 216%. This increase resulted from legal and accounting work required in preparation of the Company's proxy statement for the Shareholder meeting held on March 12, 1998, legal work in the preparation of a registration statement on Form S-1 which is discussed elsewhere in this document, and legal expense incurred in relation to the lawsuit referenced in Part II, Item 1 of this document, and due diligence work performed in regards to potential acquistions. Outside services, which includes temporary to hire staff and professional services, decreased 11% from $98,544 to $88,061 from the first quarter of 1997 to the same period in 1997. The Company hires many of the technical support call center staff and the Web production staff on a "temp to hire" program wherein the new employee remains on the temporary employment agency's payroll for approximately ninety days. This allows the staff to be fully evaluated prior to becoming a full time Company employee. During the first quarter of 1998, the Company realized a gain of $74,987 relating to the decision by the former President and CEO and another former officer to forego the remainder of severance payments in exchange for a release from non-compete agreements. The non-competes were released effective March 6, 1998. Page 16 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company has had a series of financings to provide the funds during the initial growth phases when earning have been negative. These financings are: a convertible debenture offering in late 1995 and early 1996 that brought in $490,000 (the debentures were converted to common stock in October, 1996), a preferred stock offering in mid-1996 that netted $406,000, an initial public offering in September, 1996, with proceeds of $3,775,900, and a private placement (with one unit consisting of two common shares and a warrant to purchase an additional common share at a set price) from June to September, 1997 which raised $1,117,900. Effective October 1, 1997, Mr. Douglas H. Hanson invested $2,398,577 in common stock and became the President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of the Company. Mr. Hanson invested $503,615 in March, 1998 by exercising purchased warrants and options that were granted in October, 1997, at the time of his initial investment. On May 15, 1998, Mr.Hanson exercised 421,053 resulting in a cash injection of $800,000 in order to maintain the Company's listing on the Nasdaq stock market. On May 15, 1998, the Company submitted to the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form S-1 in order to register the shares underlying the warrants issued during the Company's initial public offering on September 5, 1996 along with other securities for which the Company has committed to register under various agreements. The Warrants are currently traded on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market under the symbol "RMIIW". Upon the successful completion of this registration, the Company will have the right to call these 1,365,000 warrants for $0.25 each, and the warrant holder will have a thirty day period to exercise the warrant at an exercise price of $3.14 per underlying share. 1,900,566 common shares are underlying the warrants. If all of the shares underlying these Warrants are exercised the Company would realize proceeds of approximately $5,670,000. The Company has not announced plans to call these Warrants, but may elect to do so upon completion of the registration statement and as funds are needed. The Company has received a loan commitment from Phoenix Leasing Incorporated wherein the Company will have available a financing line available for acquisition of fixed assets in the amount of $352,000 to be used in four increments of $88,000. The financing will be secured by the assets purchased and by an Equipment Loan Bond provided by Amwest Surety Insurance Company. The Company expects to complete this agreement and initiate the first draw around the end of May 1998. RMI is an Internet Service Provider ("ISP") with an high growth rate (as discussed elsewhere in this document). The Company's growth is dependent on continuing to build a strong infrastructure and hiring high quality sales, technical, and administrative personnel. In order to build the infrastructure and acquire the human resources needed to maintain an high growth rate, the Company has operated with a negative cash flow from operations during 1996 and 1997. The Company's cash requirements are relatively fixed for the near term and the Company expects to generate positive operating cash flows by mid 1998 if revenues continue to increase according to expectations without any significant cost increases. Should revenues not continue to increase according to expectations, the Company may have to seek additional financing to fund operating losses or implement reductions in operating Page 17 expenses. Reductions in operating expenses, if effected, could adversely affect revenues and therefore not result in the expected increase in cash flow. The Company does not currently have access to additional bank financing and therefore additional financing would have to result from additional issuances of equity or debt securities. The Company's common stock is traded on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market. The NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. implemented changes to the maintenance criteria for listing eligibility on the Small Cap Market, including a requirement that issuers have at least $2,000,000 in net tangible assets. As of March 31, 1998, the Company had net tangible assets of $1,214,542 (equity of $1,656,454 less intangible customer lists of $441,912). Effective May 15, 1998, Mr. Douglas H. Hanson, President and CEO, exercised warrants exercisable at $1.90 per share resulting in an equity infusion of $800,000. On a proforma basis as of March 31, 1998, these investments bring the Company in compliance with the Nasdaq requirements. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings On September 6, 1996, Robert Lewis and Storefronts in Cyberspace, L.L.C., filed a complaint in Denver District Court naming the Company as defendant. A jury trial commenced in this case on February 23, 1998. The jury rendered its verdict on February 27, 1998.

The Warrants are currently traded on the Nasdaq stock exchange under the symbol "RMIIW". Upon the successful completion of this registration, the Company will have the right to call these 1,365,000 warrants for redemption for $0.25 each, and the warrant holder will have a thirty day period to exercise the warrant at an exercise price of $3.14 per underlying share. 1,900,566 common shares are underlying the warrants.

BY THE COMMISSION A. STATEMENT AND FINDINGS OF FACT 1. On March 9, 1998, Rocky Mountain Broadband, Inc. ("RMB"), Filed a combined application for a Certificate to Provide Local Exchange Telecommunications Services ("CPLE") on both a resale and a facilities-owned basis throughout the State of Colorado in which US WEST Communications, Inc. ("US WEST"), is currently certified to provide local exchange telecommunications services (maps provided). Collectively, the CPLE and the Notice of Intent to Exercise Operating Authority, when approved, will result in the issuance of a Certificate of Public convenience and Necessity to provide Local Exchange Telecommunications services ("CPCN"). Additionally, RMB's combined application included a request for a Certificate of Public convenience and Necessity to Provide the following Emerging Competitive (Part 3) Telecommunications Services throughout the entire Sate of Colorado: Switched Access; IntraLATA Toll and Private Line telecommunications services. 2. On March 16, 1998, the Commission issued a Notice of Application Filed and Notice of Hearing providing notice to all interested parties that this application had been filed. Interventions were due on or before April 15, 1998. 3. On April 15, 1998, US West, pursuant to Rule 64 (a) of 4 CODE OF COLORADO REGULATIONS ("CCR") 723-1, filed its Entry of Appearance and Notice of Intervention in this application. No other party petitioned to intervene. B. DISCUSSION 1. Pursuant to S 40-6-109 (5), C.R.S., the Commission finds that this matter may be considered without a hearing. 2. US West, in its intervention, states that "...if the Commission were to grant RMB's application with the provision that RMB is obligated to 1) offer service to all customers on a non-discriminatory basis and to 2) comply with all applicable statutes and Commission regulations governing telecommunications providers, consistent with previous Commission decisions granting certificates to provide local exchange telecommunications services, US West would not be opposed to the granting of the application without the need for a hearing." The Commission will grant the CPCN in accordance with US West's statement. Therefore, the application is unopposed. 3. Consistent with terms and conditions established in previous Commission decisions, RMB will be required to participate in the Colorado High Cost Fund, the Telecommunications Relay Services for the Disabled Telephone Users Program, the Emergency Telephone Access Act Program, and other financial support mechanisms that may be created in the future by the Commission to implement SS 40-15-502 (4) and (5), C.R.S. RMB further acknowledges that prior to providing local exchange telecommunications services it must: (1) have on file with the Commission, effective tariffs or price lists for its services; and (2) comply with all Commission rules and orders applicable to the provision of local exchange telecommunications services unless it has obtained a waiver. 2 4. Additionally, in accordance with Rule 25 (c) of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, 4 CCR 723-1, RMB will be required to maintain its books of accounts and records using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. 5. Granting RMB a CPCN and emerging competitive telecommunications services is consistent with the legislative statements of policy contained in SS 40-15-101, and 40-15-502, C.R.S. II. ORDERS A. THE COMMISSION ORDERS THAT: 1. Rocky Mountain Broadband, Inc.'s combined application for a Certificate to Provide Local Exchange Telecommunications Services, Notice of Intent to Exercise Operating Authority, and its application for a Certificate to provide Local Exchange Telecommunications Services, Notice of Intent to Exercise Operating Authority, and its application for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity to provide Emerging Competitive Telecommunications Services is deemed complete. 2.

Rocky Mountain Broadband, Inc., is required to file applicable tariffs to provide emerging competitive telecommunications services within 30 days of the 4 effective date of this Order. For good cause shown, and if a proper request is filed within 30 days of the effective date of this Decision and Order, the Commission may grant Rocky Mountain Broadband, Inc., additional time within which to file tariffs and price lists, if applicable. Further, for facilities- based emerging competitive telecommunications services, Rocky Mountain Broadband, Inc., is required to file tariffs to implement these services within three years of the effective date of this Decision and Order. 9.
