4. Red Light Rule The Red Light Rule process was updated in 2012, has been implemented for a year. The B&C Agent does not send the overdue invoices to the FCC as was the previous process. The B&C Agent now provides the updates to the red light system directly on a daily basis. Now instead of the FCC having to collect the funds and send to the B&C Agent, the funds are collected directly by the B&C Agent. The process is streamlined now and working well. Note that once in the red light process, access to numbering resources is blocked. This new automated process means delay in providers processes for payment could put them in the red light process sooner. 4

5. Contract Renewal The contract expired October 1, 2009. Welch LLP received an 8 month interim contract which includes a 2 1/2 month transition which will cover the period from April 1, 2013 to November 30, 2013. 5
