® Move Update MLNA and Closed PO Box Process Flow MTAC May 20, 2010

2 Move Update Requirement  First-Class and Standard Mail Requirement ●95 days prior to the mailing ●Required for any postage discounts  DMM Advisory – October 16, 2009 ●“The Move Update standard requires periodic matching of a mailer’s address records with customer-filed change-of-address (COA) orders.”  Moved Left No Address and Closed PO Boxes ●According to Guide to Move Update (April 2010)* ●95 days from the Move Effective Date of these COA matches to update the record  Remove from the mailing  Mail as single-piece First-Class Mail *

3 Four Pr ing Processing Scenarios  List-based Situation ●Closed application using NCOA Link®  In-house application where list owner is the mailer ●Open application using NCOA Link  Multiple parties where data must return to source  MLOCR Situation ●Closed application using FASTforward®  Pieces are culled from the mailing ●Open application using FASTforward  FFMUN is leveraged to return data to source

4 MLNA and BCNO Decision Tree NCOA Link Address List COA Match? MLNA Foreign BCNO? Mail Source Address Mail Updated Address MED < 96 Days? Mail Source Address No Yes Suppress Or Single FCM Yes No Essential NCOA Link return codes A = Exact COA Match 91 = COA Match, but secondary on COA was dropped 92 = COA Match, but secondary on input address was dropped 01 = Foreign Move 02 = Move, Left No Address 03 = Box Closed, No Order filed

5 MLNA Identified Record

6 Filtering The Selection

7 Options for Selection  “Hide” the records from the Presort ●Similar to a record suppression ●Keeps the records in the database, but doesn’t include them in the presort  Create a Sublist – Subset of the original ●Exports just the selected records and extracts them from the database into a secondary list ●This new Sublist can be sorted at single piece First-Class Mail rate  Check with your vendor to understand what options are available to support selectivity

8 MLOCR Handling – Still a Work in Progress  FASTforward culls all COAs in “live” mode ●Customer Filed COAs ●Moved Left No Address ●Box Closed, No Order filed ●Foreign Moves  FFMUN (FASTforward Move Update Notification) ●Text file that provides COA information ●DNF-Code field  K = Moved Left No Address  G = PO Box Closed  C = Undeliverable  F = Foreign – New Address Not Present

9 FFMUN Files  Data can be received directly via RIBBS ●Indirect – FASTforward Licensee manages the COA data ●Direct – Mailer manages the COA data ●Consolidator – No FFMUN data is returned ●Jackpot / Batch – No FFMUN data is returned  Application of COA data to source file ●May require a customized application ●Additional concerns related to data quality, timing, and legal restraints exist

10 ACS Data and Ancillary Endorsements Matching Software Merge/Purge Original List Keyline Match? MLNA Foreign BCNO? Keep Source Address Update the Address MED < 96 Days? Keep Source Address No Yes Remove or Mail at FCM Yes No Essential ACS Deliverability codes Space (null) = Use New Address K = Move, Left No Address G = Box Closed, No Order filed F = Foreign Move ACS File

11 Summary of the Situation  Move Update is Required for Discounted STD and First-Class presorted mail  USPS considers MLNA, BCNO, and Foreign as legitimate Change-of-Addresses ●COAs that must have some action applied  The current DMM and the Move Update requirements are not fully aligned ●These COAs are not “customer filed” and are questionable for action by some mailers  Technology exists today for some scenarios ●More time is needed for the industry to comply ●Replacement solution for FASTforward by 2012
