2. Emergency Services – 911 Dialing

2.1 Non-Availability of Traditional 911 or E911 Dialing Service

You acknowledge and understand that the Service does NOT support traditional 911 or E911 access to emergency services. Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. does offer a limited 911-type service available, only on certified equipments as described herein, which is provided by New Global Telecom (NGT) as the underlying network provider. You acknowledge and understand that 911-type dialing is NOT automatic, that you must separately take affirmative steps, as described in this Agreement, to activate such 911-type dialing capabilities and that such 911-type dialing is different in a number of important ways (some, but not necessarily all, of which are described in this Agreement) from traditional 911 service. Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. 911 dialing cannot be used in conjunction with a Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. Soft Phone application and is only available on Crown Networking Consultants, Inc.-certified Equipment.

2.2 Description of 911-Type Dialing Capabilities – Activation Required

Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. does offer a 911-type dialing service provided by NGT, its underlying network provider, in the U.S that is different in a number of important ways from traditional 911 service. You acknowledge and understand that 911-type dialing is NOT automatic. When you dial 911, your call is routed from the NGT network to the Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) or local emergency service personnel designated for the address that you listed at the time of activation. You acknowledge and understand that when you dial 911 from your Certified equipment it is intended that you will be routed to the general telephone number for the PSAP or local emergency service provider (which may not be answered outside business hours), and may not be routed to the 911 dispatcher(s) who are specifically designated to receive incoming 911 calls using traditional 911 dialing. Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. relies on NGT for the forwarding of information underlying such routing, and accordingly Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. disclaims any and all liability or responsibility in the event such information or routing is incorrect. As described herein, this 911-type dialing currently is NOT the same as traditional 911 or E911 dialing, and at this time, does not necessarily include all of the capabilities of traditional 911 dialing. Neither Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. nor its officers or employees may be held liable for any claim, damage, or loss, and you hereby waive any and all such claims or causes of action, arising from or relating to 911 dialing unless it is proven that the act or omission proximately causing the claim, damage, or loss constitutes gross negligence, recklessness, or intentional misconduct on the part of Crown Networking Consultants, Inc.. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. from any claim or action arising out of misrouted of 911 calls, including but not limited to your failure to follow correct activation procedures for 911 calling or your provision to Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. of incorrect information in connection therewith.

2.3 Service Outage

2.3.1 Power Failure or Disruption You acknowledge and understand that 911 dialing does not function in the event of a power failure or disruption. Should there be an interruption in the power supply, the Service and 911 dialing will not function until power is restored. A power failure or disruption may require the Customer to reset or reconfigure equipment prior to utilizing the Service or 911 dialing.

2.3.2 ISP Outage or Termination / Suspension or Termination by Crown Networking Consultants, Inc.

You acknowledge and understand that service outages or suspension or termination of service by your broadband provider and/or ISP will prevent ALL Services including 911 dialing.

2.3.3 Service Outage Due to Suspension of Your Account

You acknowledge and understand that service outages due to suspension of your account as a result of billing issues will prevent ALL Services, including 911 dialing.

2.3.4 Other Service Outages

You acknowledge and understand that if there is a service outage for ANY reason, such outage will prevent ALL Service, including 911 dialing. Such outages may occur for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to those reasons described elsewhere in this Agreement.

2.3.5 Limitation of Liability and Indemnification

You acknowledge and understand that Crown Networking Consultants, Inc.’s liability is limited for any Service outage and/or inability to dial 911 from your line or to access emergency service personnel, as set forth in this document. You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Crown Networking Consultants, Inc., its officers, directors, employees, affiliates and agents and any other service provider who furnishes services to Customer in connection with this Agreement or the Service, from any and all claims, losses, damages, fines, penalties, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) by, or on behalf of, Customer or any third party or user of Customer’s Service relating to the absence, failure or outage of the Service, including 911 dialing and/or inability of Customer or any third person or party or user of Customer’s Service to be able to dial 911 or to access emergency service personnel.

2.4 Dialing Requires Registration

You acknowledge and understand that 911 dialing does not function unless you have successfully registered your phone location by designating the correct physical address of each phone by means of a signed customer order form. You acknowledge and understand that you cannot dial 911 from this line unless and until you have received a confirmation email. You acknowledge that you are responsible for re-registering the phone’s address if you move the phone to another location. This re-registration must be done via the specific toll free number provided by Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. for this purpose.

2.5 Failure to Designate the Correct Physical Address When Activating 911 Dialing

Failure to provide the current and correct physical address and location of your certified equipment will result in any 911 communications you may make being routed to the incorrect local emergency service provider. This must be the actual physical street address where you are located, not a post office box, mail drop or similar address.

2.6 Requires Reactivation if You Change Your Number or Add or Port New Numbers

You acknowledge and understand that 911 dialing does not function if you change your phone number or (for such newly added or ported numbers) if you add or port new numbers to your account, unless and until you have successfully registered the new location with Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. by means of a signed order form, and until such later date that such activation has been confirmed to you through a confirming email. Although you may have activated 911 dialing with your former Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. phone number, you must separately register for 911 dialing for any changed or newly added or ported number.

2.7 Requires Reactivation if You Move or Change Location

You acknowledge and understand that 911 dialing does not function properly or at all if you move or otherwise change the physical location of your Certified equipment to a different street address, unless and until you have successfully registered the new location with Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. by means of a signed order form, and until such later date that such activation has been confirmed to you through a confirming email. 911 dialing must be re-activated although you may have activated 911 dialing using your former address, and you must separately activate 911 dialing for any new physical address. Failure to provide the current and correct physical address and location of your Certified equipment will result in any 911 dialing you may make being routed to the incorrect local emergency service provider.

2.8 Possibility of Network Congestion and/or Reduced Speed for Routing or Answering 911

Due to the technical constraints on the manner in which it is possible to provide the 911 dialing feature for Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. Service at this time, you acknowledge and understand that there is a greater possibility of network congestion and/or reduced speed in the routing of a 911 communication made utilizing your certified equipment as compared to traditional 911 dialing over traditional public telephone networks. You acknowledge and understand that 911 dialing from your Certified equipment will be routed to the general telephone number for the local emergency service provider (which may not be answered outside business hours), and will not be routed to the 911 dispatcher(s) who are specifically designated to receive incoming 911 calls at such local provider’s facilities when such calls are routed using traditional 911 dialing. You acknowledge and understand that there may be a greater possibility that the general telephone number for the local emergency service provider will produce a busy signal or will take longer to answer, as compared to those 911 calls routed to the 911 dispatcher(s) who are specifically designated to receive incoming 911 calls using traditional 911 dialing. You acknowledge and accept that Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. relies on third parties for the forwarding of information underlying such routing, and accordingly Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. disclaims any and all liability or responsibility in the event such information or routing is incorrect. Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. or its officers or employees, may not be held liable for any claim, damage, or loss, and you hereby waive any and all such claims or causes of action, arising from or relating to 911 dialing unless it is proven that the act or omission proximately causing the claim, damage, or loss constitutes gross negligence, recklessness, or intentional misconduct on the part of Crown Networking Consultants, Inc..

2.9 Automated Number Identification

At this time in the technical development of the network 911 dialing, it may or may not be possible for the Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) and the local emergency personnel to identify your phone number when you dial 911. Crown Networking Consultants, Inc.’s system is configured in most instances to send the automated number identification information; however, one or more telephone companies, not Crown Networking Consultants, Inc., route the traffic to the PSAP and the PSAP itself must be able to receive the information and pass it along properly, and PSAPs are not yet always technically capable of doing so. You acknowledge and understand that PSAP and emergency personnel may or may not be able to identify your phone number in order to call you back if the call is unable to be completed, is dropped or disconnected, or if you are unable to speak to tell them your phone number and/or if the Service is not operational for any reason, including without limitation those listed elsewhere in this Agreement.

2.10 Alternative 911 Arrangements

You acknowledge that Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. does not offer primary line or lifeline services. You should always have an alternative means of accessing traditional E911 services.

3. Changes to this Agreement

Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. may change the terms and conditions of this Agreement from time to time. Notices will be considered given and effective on the date posted on to the “Legal” section of Crown Networking Consultants, Inc.’s website (currently located at http://www.CrownNetworking.com/legal/). Such changes will become binding on Customer, on the date posted to the Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. website and no further notice by Crown Networking Consultants, Inc. is required.

4.5 Customer Cancellation or Discontinuance of Service
