The MCI SysOp Marketing Program is a wild new business 
opportunity that lets you save your callers up to 40% on 
their long distance calls and earn money yourself simply by 
signing up new MCI PC Connect (sm) customers.

What a wild idea! Here’s how it works:

You simply display an MCI PC Connect “advertisement” (that 
we supply) on your BBS. The ad will contain an 800 
enrollment number and your Operator Code.

Callers dial in to your BBS, and see the advertisement 
encouraging them to call a toll-free MCI number and sign up.  
They give the MCI operator your Operator Code, which is 
displayed on the advertisement screen.

Every time a new MCI PC Connect customer signs up through 
your marketing effort, you earn a $5 commission.  MCI tracks 
your sales by your Operator Code.

To further support our SysOps, we’re launching a national 
MCI PC Connect print advertising campaign and, if you wish, 
we’ll include your BBS name and number in the MCI BBS 
Directory!  This will let potential subscribers know they 
can save money on calls to your BBS.

SO WHY WAIT?
Do something wild with MCI PC Connect — and watch your 
business buzz!

MCI PC CONNECT(sm) SYSOP AGREEMENT

This agreement dated as of  _______ sets forth the mutual 
covenants and obligations of MCI Telecommunications 
Corporation (“MCI”) and ___________________ (“Operator”) to 
implement a program (the “Program”) offering MCI PC Connect

1. OPERATOR’S RESPONSIBILITIES

Operator’s Bulletin Board (the “Board”) which includes an 
MCI PC Connect marketing message. The placement of the 
Screen is within the discretion of Operator; provided, 
however, that the Screen will be seen by all Users.  The 
Screen will identify an 800 number for user enrollment and 
an operator code to be used to track the source of sale to 
the Operator.  

B. CHOOSE MCI AS LONG DISTANCE CARRIER.  Operator will 
switch all of the published access lines listed on Exhibit A 
to MCI service.  If Operator adds any new lines after the 
execution of this Agreement, Operator may switch new 
published access lines to MCI service by calling MCI 
Customer Service at 1-800-328-3913.

C. USE OF MCI LOGO.  Operator acknowledges that 
authorization to use MCI names and/or logos is limited to 
the Program described in this Agreement and to the mutually 
approved marketing materials used in connection with the 
Program.

with reporting for purposes of customer analysis. Content of

discretion, that Operator has breached this provision.

allow MCI a minimum of 30 minutes free access time per month

MCI customers a separate fulfillment package which includes 
a 
customized letter explaining their MCI calling plan and 
providing an MCI customer service number, and certificates 
good for any promotional offer. 

G. PIC FEES.  MCI will provide an invoice credit to Operator 
of $5 per line for any PIC change fee charged by the local 
exchange carrier both to switch any new line to MCI and to 
switch the line back after the Program, if requested by 
Operator.  In addition, Users who are new MCI PC Connect 
customers and enrolled through the Program will receive an 
invoice credit of $5 to cover the cost of switching long 
distance carriers.

H. COMMISSIONS.  MCI will pay a $5 commission for every new 
MCI customer enrolled through Operator’s implementation of 
the Program. These subscribers will be identified by the 
Operator Code that is collected at the time of enrollment.

customers.  The commission payment will be limited to one 
payment per year for any given subscriber phone number. 
Commissions will be paid within thirty (30) days of the end 
of the calendar quarter for all installs for the preceding 
calendar quarter.
