FORTY-EIGHTH AMENDMENT

CSG MASTER SUBSCRIBER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AGREEMENT

BETWEEN

CSG SYSTEMS, INC.

AND

TIME WARNER CABLE INC.

This Forty-eighth Amendment (the “Amendment”) is made by and between CSG Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CSG”), and Time Warner Cable Inc. (“TWC”). CSG and TWC entered into a certain CSG Master Subscriber Management System Agreement executed March 13, 2003, and effective as of April 1, 2003 (CSG document no. 1926320), as amended (the “Agreement”), and now desire to further amend the Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Amendment. If the terms and conditions set forth in this Amendment shall be in conflict with the Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Amendment shall control. Any terms in initial capital letters or all capital letters used as a defined term but not defined in this Amendment shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement. Upon execution of this Amendment by each of CSG and TWC (the “Execution Date”), CSG and TWC agree that the effective date of this Amendment shall be August 30, 2011 (the “Effective Date”).

Following the Effective Date of this Amendment, any subsequent reference to the Agreement between the parties shall mean the Agreement as amended by this Amendment. Except as amended by this Amendment, the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect according to their terms.

CSG and TWC agree as follows:

 

1. As of the Effective Date of this Amendment, all references in Attachment A to Exhibit C-4 of the Agreement to “EBPP” shall be deleted and replaced with “Precision eBPP™”.

For clarification purposes, current processes with TWC for implementing pre-release code for ACP/ACSR®/SLBOS products will be unchanged under this Amendment.
