The Customer may opt for any Call Spend under the hosted voice service Contract to count as Total Contributory Call Spend under the existing BT Customer Commitment Contract. The following conditions will apply for this option. - (a)Following signature of the hosted voice service Contract, the Customer must complete a hosted voice service migration form before the next Spend Measurement Date of the BT Customer Commitment Contract.
