SIXTY-NINTH AMENDMENT

TO THE

CSG MASTER SUBSCRIBER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AGREEMENT

BETWEEN

CSG SYSTEMS, INC.

AND

TIME WARNER CABLE INC.

This Sixty-ninth 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, 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 the parties, 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 to the following as of the Effective Date:

 

1.

   

Customers desire to use and CSG agrees to create and implement certain SQL packages (“SQL Packages”), CSG Vantage® reference tables (“Reference Tables”) and output tables (“Output Tables”) which are identified in Attachment A to this Amendment (collectively, the “User Defined Report Objects”) for Customers’ residential Subscribers in the system principal agents listed in Attachment B.  In addition, CSG shall create functionality so that the SQL Packages will run automatically, monthly (“Scheduled Jobs”) to generate the Output Tables.  The User Defined Report Objects and the Output Tables shall be stored by CSG on TWC’s dedicated Vantage environment for each of the applicable timelines reflected in Attachment A.  TWC’s existing dedicated Vantage environment will be expanded to add **** ******* (***) ********* of storage capacity (“Additional Storage”) to host such User Defined Report Objects.  For avoidance of doubt, any data contained in the User Defined Report Objects, regardless of whether such data is marked or stated as confidential or proprietary, shall be deemed to be Confidential Information of TWC and subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement.  Further, the Additional Storage is not intended to store any Personal Information and therefore, TWC is solely responsible for ensuring that no Personal Information is contained in any of the Reference Tables.

   

   

   

   

   

CSG shall provide TWC with Vantage user capabilities for *** (*) *****, each as designated by TWC (“Designated Users”).  *** (*) such Designated User shall be designated as the schema owner (“Schema Owner”).  Within the schema, the Schema Owner will have all administrator rights and privileges, including the capability to run ******* (**) ********** ********, grant/discontinue access to any users of Customer (“Customer Users”) and/or the Third Party User, and grant/discontinue the capability of Customer Users and/or the Third Party User to perform ongoing maintenance activities to the User Defined Report Objects, including updating service code categories, free service identifiers, outlook and budget codes and to make changes to the User Defined Report Objects logic.  The ****** ********** User (the “Third Party User”) shall only have access to the Output Tables and the capability to run ******* (**) ********** ********, unless the Schema Owner specifically grants additional capabilities to such Third Party User.  For avoidance of doubt, no additional Vantage licenses are required in connection with the Designated Users.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Customer User must have a Vantage license to utilize the capabilities granted by the Schema Owner and each such Customer User’s number of sessions hereunder will be dictated by such Customer User’s applicable Vantage license.  Further, the Schema Owner may add, remove and/or change the capabilities of Customer Users, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time hereunder at no additional charge.  In addition, TWC may change the Schema Owner at any time and from time to time hereunder, ** ** ********** ******, by notifying CSG in writing (e-mail is acceptable).

Note 15:  With respect to processing (“CPU”) capacity, TWC will use the shared resource model with the TWC CPU allocation on the TWC dedicated Vantage environment.  

Note 16: Support Fees are for administration and maintenance of the additional Vantage storage capacity on TWC’s dedicated Vantage environment, storing the Output Tables reflected in and in accordance with the time periods reflected in Attachment A, and the Scheduled Jobs functionality (“Support Services”).  Support Services will commence after the Test Period (defined below) and limited to ******* (**) ***** *******; any Support Services after the Test Period in excess of ******* (**) ***** must be set forth in a mutually agreed Statement of Work and shall be provided at TWC’s then-current Technical Services fee.  CSG shall notify TWC when ****** ******* (***) of the Support Services hours have been exhausted in any given *****.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Support Services hereunder include support for the User Defined Report Objects (such support shall include operation support, answering functional questions and resolving reported issues/concerns but, for avoidance of doubt, excludes any significant code re-write) for the initial ***** (**) *** period following the Test Period limited to *** ******* (***) *****; any such Support Services in excess of *** ******* (***) ***** and/or after such ***** (**) *** period must be set forth in a mutually agreed Change Order or Statement of Work and shall be provided at TWC’s then-current Technical Services fee.

As a point of clarification, the Support Services fee listed in the table above is subject to increase pursuant to Section 5.4 of the Agreement following the first anniversary date after commencement of the Revenue Model Support Services.
