See Note&#160;9&#8212;Products and Services Revenues for additional information. These changes had no impact on total operating revenues, total operating expenses or net income for any period presented.</font></div></div>

<div style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;"><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:10px;padding-top:10px;text-indent:30px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Use of Estimates</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:10px;padding-top:10px;text-indent:32px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions we make when accounting for specific items and matters, including, but not limited to, long-term contracts, customer retention patterns, allowance for doubtful accounts, depreciation, amortization, asset valuations, rates used for affiliate cost allocations, internal labor capitalization rates, recoverability of assets (including deferred tax assets), impairment assessments, taxes, certain liabilities and other provisions and contingencies, are reasonable, based on information available at the time they are made. Our accounting for CenturyLink's indirect acquisition of us required extensive use of estimates in determining the acquisition date fair values of our assets and liabilities. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can materially affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and components of stockholder's equity as of the dates of the consolidated balance sheets, as well as the reported amounts of revenues, expenses and components of cash flows during the periods presented in our other consolidated financial statements. We also make estimates in our assessments of potential losses in relation to threatened or pending tax and legal matters. See Note&#160;11&#8212;Income Taxes and Note&#160;15&#8212;Commitments and Contingencies for additional information.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:10px;padding-top:10px;text-indent:32px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">For matters not related to income taxes, if a loss is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, we recognize an expense for the estimated loss. If we have the potential to recover a portion of the estimated loss from a third party, we make a separate assessment of recoverability and reduce the estimated loss if recovery is also deemed probable.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:10px;padding-top:10px;text-indent:32px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">For matters related to income taxes, if we determine that the impact of an uncertain tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority, then we recognize a benefit for the largest amount that is more likely than not to be sustained. No portion of an uncertain tax position will be recognized if the position has less than a </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">50%</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> likelihood of being sustained. Interest is recognized on the amount of unrecognized benefit from uncertain tax positions.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:10px;padding-top:10px;text-indent:32px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">For all of these and other matters, actual results could differ materially from our estimates.</font></div></div>
