5. July 2010-June 2011 Budget Total projected cost for the NANP Fund is $5,497,882 (including $500,000 surplus) The US carriers are required to contribute $5,401,443 The International Participants (Canada and Caribbean countries) contribute the remaining $96,439

6. February 18, 2010B&C WG6 Contribution Factor Options The first scenario uses up the entire anticipated fund surplus at June 30, 2010 of $1,340,407. The US carriers would be required to fund $4,061,136 with a funding factor of 0.0000172. This option leaves only the $500,000 in the surplus account which is the contingency provision. The second scenario is designed to reduce the surplus by approximately one-half resulting in a contribution factor of 0.000020. This scenario reduces the surplus by $687,320. The total contribution by the US carriers would be $4,714,123. There would be $653,087 excess surplus that could be carried forward to subsidize contributions in the future. The third scenario is designed to leave the surplus in the fund resulting in a contribution factor of 0.0000229. The total contribution by the US carriers would be $5,401,443. There would be $1,340,407 excess surplus that could be carried forward to subsidize contributions in the future.

11. February 18, 2010B&C WG11 2009 Welch LLP Performance Review Budget estimates were made more difficult due to unknown budget estimates with limited data. Welch handled extremely well with actual amounts within $15,000 of original forecast. Welch's persistence while working with FCC for write off package for delinquent payments with timely resolution. Welch prepared a detailed Operational Review for 2009, in an easy to follow format with out being given a deadline or being prompted to deliver. Contribution factor approval was delayed which caused delays in the process. This made more work for the B&C agent which was handled very well.
