MEMBERSHIP OPTIONS AND AGREEMENT
One of the following membership options MUST be selected:

1. I have not had phone service with CTTC previously. I wish to procure telephone service from the Cooperative and thereby establish membership with the
Cooperative.
Please check one:
(Individual or Business)
Please note, in order for a husband and wife to hold a joint membership, both parties must sign this application. When both sign, the term “member” shall be
deemed to include a husband and wife holding a joint membership and any provisions relating to the rights and liabilities of membership shall apply equally with
respect to the holders of the joint membership. The vote of either separately or both jointly shall constitute one vote as a member of the Cooperative.

2. I have previously had membership with CTTC as a single individual or business operating under my social security number. My marital status or business
form has not changed and I thereby wish to re-establish service under the member number previously assigned to my account.

3. I currently have service with the Cooperative. My marital status has changed and I thereby wish to apply for a new single membership with the
Cooperative. I understand that all capital credit allocations under the previous joint membership will remain in the joint names only and cannot be transferred to a
single membership unless addressed in a divorce decree and provided to the Cooperative.

4. I currently have service with the Cooperative. My marital status has changed and I thereby wish to apply for a new joint membership with the
Cooperative. I understand that all capital credit allocations under my previous single membership will remain in my name only. Upon my death, these allocations
cannot be transferred to my spouse. I understand in applying for joint membership that, in order for a husband and wife to hold a joint membership, both parties
must sign this application. When both sign, the term “member” shall be deemed to include a husband and wife holding a joint membership and any provisions
relating to the rights and liabilities of membership shall apply equally with respect to the holders of the joint membership. The vote of either separately or both
jointly shall constitute one vote as a member of the Cooperative.

5. I currently have service with the Cooperative. My marital status has changed and I thereby wish to convert my single membership to a joint membership
as provided in the Cooperative’s By-Laws Article 1 Section 4(a) which states that “A membership may be converted to a joint membership upon the request of the
holder thereof and the agreement by such holder and his or her spouse to comply with the articles of incorporation, By-Laws, and any rules and regulations adopted
by the Board.” I understand that the membership certificate shall be reissued by the Co-op in such a manner as shall indicate the changed membership status and that
all capital credit allocations under my single membership will be transferred from my single membership to my joint membership from the date of original
application continuing until disconnection of telephone service. Upon death of either spouse who is a party to the joint membership, such membership shall be held
solely by the survivor.

6. I currently have service with the Cooperative and hold a joint membership with my deceased spouse. I wish to convert the joint membership to a single
membership in accordance with Article 1, Section 4(b) of the Cooperative’s By-Laws which state “Upon the death of either spouse who is a party to the joint
membership, such membership shall be held solely by the survivor. The outstanding membership certificate shall be surrendered, and shall be reissued in such
manner as shall indicate the changed membership status, provided, however, that the estate of the deceased shall not be released from any debts due the Co-Op.”

7. I currently receive service with the Cooperative through the single membership of my deceased spouse. I understand that all capital credit allocations
under the single membership of my deceased spouse shall remain in that name only and cannot be transferred to me. However, I wish to continue receiving
telephone service from the Cooperative and thereby request to establish a single membership with the Cooperative. In doing so, I understand that I may still have the
directory listing in the name of my deceased spouse or other listing that I may choose.
The undersigned (hereinafter called the “Applicant”) hereby applies for membership in and agrees to take telephone service from a corporation organized under the laws
of the State of Texas under the name of Central Texas Telephone Cooperative, Inc. (hereinafter called “Cooperative”), for the purpose of furnishing telephone service,
upon the following terms:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.

The Cooperative may, at any time, and at its sole discretion, revoke the privilege of extending credit to the Applicant for future services.
The Cooperative, or its designee, is expressly authorized to investigate any references, and other information furnished by the undersigned Applicant, or by
any other person or entity pertaining to the undersigned Applicant’s creditworthiness.
This application authorizes the Cooperative or its designee to verify Applicant’s creditworthiness by obtaining a credit report, or by directly contacting banks,
lending institutions, and suppliers in connection with this application or later in connection with an update, and specifically agrees to a continuing verification
as to any trade, credit or bank reference by the Cooperative from year-to-year until said account is paid in full, or this authorization is revoked in writing.

provisions shall, nevertheless, remain in full force and effect.

Certification
Under penalties of perjury, I certify that:
1. The number shown on this form is my correct taxpayer identification number (or I am waiting for a number to be issued to me), and
2. I am not subject to backup withholding because: (a) I am exempt from backup withholding, or (b) I have not been notified by the Internal Revenue
Service (IRS) that I am subject to backup withholding as a result of a failure to report all interest or dividends, or (c) the IRS has notified me that I am
no longer subject to backup withholding, and
3. I am a U.S. citizen or other U.S. person (defined below).
Certification instructions. You must cross out item 2 above if you have been notified by the IRS that you are currently subject to backup withholding
because you have failed to report all interest and dividends on your tax return. For real estate transactions, item 2 does not apply. For mortgage
interest paid, acquisition or abandonment of secured property, cancellation of debt, contributions to an individual retirement arrangement (IRA), and
generally, payments other than interest and dividends, you are not required to sign the certification, but you must provide your correct TIN. See the
instructions on page 4.

General Instructions
Section references are to the Internal Revenue Code unless otherwise
noted.
Purpose of Form
A person who is required to file an information return with the IRS must
obtain your correct taxpayer identification number (TIN) to report, for
example, income paid to you, real estate transactions, mortgage interest
you paid, acquisition or abandonment of secured property, cancellation
of debt, or contributions you made to an IRA.
Use Form W-9 only if you are a U.S. person (including a resident
alien), to provide your correct TIN to the person requesting it (the
requester) and, when applicable, to:
1. Certify that the TIN you are giving is correct (or you are waiting for a
number to be issued),
2. Certify that you are not subject to backup withholding, or
3. Claim exemption from backup withholding if you are a U.S. exempt
payee. If applicable, you are also certifying that as a U.S. person, your
allocable share of any partnership income from a U.S. trade or business
is not subject to the withholding tax on foreign partners’ share of
effectively connected income.
Note. If a requester gives you a form other than Form W-9 to request
your TIN, you must use the requester’s form if it is substantially similar
to this Form W-9.
Definition of a U.S. person. For federal tax purposes, you are
considered a U.S. person if you are:
• An individual who is a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien,
• A partnership, corporation, company, or association created or
organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States,
• An estate (other than a foreign estate), or
• A domestic trust (as defined in Regulations section 301.7701-7).
Special rules for partnerships. Partnerships that conduct a trade or
business in the United States are generally required to pay a withholding
tax on any foreign partners’ share of income from such business.
Further, in certain cases where a Form W-9 has not been received, a
partnership is required to presume that a partner is a foreign person,
and pay the withholding tax. Therefore, if you are a U.S. person that is a
partner in a partnership conducting a trade or business in the United
States, provide Form W-9 to the partnership to establish your U.S.
status and avoid withholding on your share of partnership income.

CUSTOMER PROPRIETARY NETWORK INFORMATION
(CPNI)
Important Customer Notice
Federal law and regulations require Central Texas Telephone Cooperative (CTTC) to protect the privacy of
your call detail information on file with CTTC. This information includes specific telephone call data, such as
the number called, time, location, or call duration. The rules prohibit CTTC from releasing any call detail
information during customer-initiated telephone contact without first verifying that the identity of the caller
matches the customer name on the account.
The FCC has expressed concern that individuals “pretending” to be customers are attempting to obtain call
detail information from telecommunications companies by calling to discuss “billing questions.” Consequently,
the rules require CTTC to verify that a customer calling is really actually the customer. Accordingly, CTTC
will share call detail information only with you, our customer, under two circumstances: a) you may come into
our office to ask questions and present a valid photo ID matching the name on the account; or, b) you can call
us with your billing questions and tell us the call detail information on your bill that you are questioning, such
as telephone number called and time of call.
If you decide to call us with a billing question but do not have a copy of your bill, the FCC’s rules provide three
alternatives:
(1)
You can ask us to call you back to discuss your billing questions. However, we can only call the
telephone number that is listed on your account;
(2)
You can request that a copy of your bill be sent to you at the billing address listed in our account
records. When you receive it, you can call us and provide the call detail information when you
ask your question; or,
(3)
You can provide us with a pre-established password, and then we can discuss your billing
questions.
If you wish to establish a password for your account to facilitate the discussion of your billing questions over
the phone, please contact a CTTC Customer Service Rep at (325) 648-2237 or (800) 535-8904.
In addition, if you wish to add an individual as an authorized user of your account, and enabling that individual
to obtain call detail information on your behalf, please contact us. If you wish to rely on someone else to
discuss account changes, payments, or any call detail information, you must add that person’s name to your
account. Any contact(s) that you authorize will not be responsible for payment of this account.

IMPORTANT CUSTOMER NOTICE REGARDING
CUSTOMER PROPRIETARY NETWORK INFORMATION
Federal law protects your privacy rights as a customer of Central Texas Telephone Cooperative (CTTC). These
rights are in addition to the existing safeguards that CTTC already has in place to ensure your privacy rights.
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) requires CTTC to notify you as a subscriber of your right to
restrict the use of, disclosure of, and access to your Customer Proprietary Network Information (CPNI). You
have the right, and CTTC has a duty, under Federal law, to protect the confidentiality of your CPNI.
CPNI: CPNI is information you might consider private and therefore wish for CTTC to protect it from use for
marketing purposes. CPNI is information CTTC possesses solely due to the customer-carrier relationship that is
necessary for the company to serve your telecommunications needs. CPNI is defined by the FCC as information
that relates to the quantity, technical configuration, type, destination and amount of use of a
telecommunications service subscribed to by any customer of a telecommunications carrier and that is made
available to the carrier by the customer solely by virtue of the carrier-customer relationship; and information
contained in the bills pertaining to telephone exchange or toll service received by a customer of a carrier. CPNI
does not include information that is in the public domain or available from other, non-Company sources. For
example, census data, subscriber list information and published directory information is public data.
PERMITTED USE OF CPNI BY COMPANY WITHOUT YOUR PERMISSION: CPNI can be used by
the CTTC for certain purposes without your permission. CTTC may use CPNI to offer you new or enhanced
services that are related to the category of services to which you currently subscribe. CTTC may also use CPNI
to respond to your inquiry regarding services you currently use or related services CTTC offers. In addition,
CTTC may use CPNI in connection with repair and maintenance services, billing and collection, to protect
CTTC property and to prevent fraud.
PROHIBITED USE OF CPNI UNLESS AUTHORIZED BY YOU: Without your authorization, CTTC may
not use your CPNI to market other communications services that it provides that are unrelated to the services
you already purchased. For example, CTTC may not use CPNI to offer you any type of long distance or
wireless service unless you currently subscribe to such long distance or wireless services. In addition, CTTC
may not share CPNI with any other company, including our affiliate that offers communications related
services, unless you are also a customer of our affiliate.
MAY WE USE YOUR CPNI TO BETTER INFORM YOU OF OTHER SERVICE OFFERINGS?
CTTC and its affiliate company provide a vast array of telecommunication services including local, long
distance, wireless TV and Internet access. We want to assure you that we always take great care in the way that
we handle sensitive information that pertains to your account, known as CPNI. CTTC requests permission to
use your CPNI to more effectively meet your telecommunications needs. CTTC might want to contact you to
advise you of new services, pricing alternatives or special offers that CTTC believes may interest you based on
the telecommunications services you currently purchased.
CENTRAL TEXAS TELEPHONE COOPERATIVE, INC.
IMPORTANT CUSTOMER NOTICE REGARDING
CUSTOMER PROPRIETARY NETWORK INFORMATION
Page 2
With your permission, only CTTC and its affiliate, will use your CPNI. CPNI data will not be shared with any
other company or entity without your approval, except to provide the service or services to which you are
already subscribed, or where we are required or authorized by law, regulation or other controlling authority to
share the information with an outside party.
With this in mind, we would like you to know that FCC regulations give you a choice—a choice about how
CTTC can use your CPNI to let you know about the availability of innovative services offerings that you may
have not anticipated or even knew that we were able to provide. You will also be able to enjoy savings and may
even be able to combine all these services on one monthly bill.
If you agree to give CTTC permission to use your CPNI, you do not need to take any further action.
If you do not agree to give CTTC permission to use your CPNI as described, you may “opt-out” by notifying
us within the next 30 days in the following manner:
(1)
Call the CTTC office at (325) 648-2237 or (800) 535-8904 within 30 days to register your
request. You may call anytime, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week; or
(2)
Complete the information below and return it to CTTC, PO Box 627, Goldthwaite TX 76844; or,
(3)
E-mail CTTC at www.centex.net. Be sure to include in your email the name that appears on
your account with CTTC, the telephone number associated with your account and a statement
that you wish CTTC to “restrict use of my CPNI.”
“OPTING OUT” DOES NOT AFFECT YOUR CURRENT SERVICE: The restriction will remain in effect
until you notify us otherwise. Restricting use of your CPNI will not affect the services that you currently have
with CTTC and its affiliate. Please note that restricting your CPNI will not eliminate all of our marketing
contacts with you. You could still receive marketing contacts from us that are not based on your CPNI. Also,
CTTC and its affiliate may use your CPNI to contact you about service offerings related to the services to which
you already subscribe or to market other service offerings with your permission in the context of a customer
service call.
YOU CAN ALWAYS CHANGE YOUR MIND: You can always change your mind about CTTC’S use of
CPNI simply by telling us. Your instructions will remain in effect until you revoke or limit that approval or
denial. (Please be aware that every two years, you will receive a notice similar to this one to remind customers
of their options). Regardless of whether you decide to “opt out” or not, CTTC is committed to continuing to
provide you with the same high quality services that you have come to expect from us.
If you have any questions, or would like additional information regarding our use of CPNI, please contact
customer service at (325) 648-2237 or (800) 535-8904.

PIC FREEZE AUTHORIZATION FORM

a protection against “slamming” (switching your telephone company without your permission). You can impose
a freeze on either your local toll or long distance service provider, or both. If you authorize a freeze, you must
contact CENTRAL TEXAS TELEPHONE COOP., INC. at 325-648-2237 or (800) 535-8904 to lift the
freeze before you can change your service provider. You may add or lift a freeze at any time at no charge.

Regarding the Collection and Use of a Customer’s Social Security Number
1.
How your social security number is collected.
We obtain your social security number when you apply for service.
2.
How your social security number is used.
Your social security number is obtained because we will be extending credit to you by billing
you after the services have been provided to you. We also use your social security number
as an additional means to verify your identity and distinguish you from other customers with
the same or similar name and to administer the LITE-UP Texas Program.
3.
How do we protect your social security number?
We are sensitive to your concerns that your social security number might fall into the wrong
hands, which could result in identity theft or general access to your personal information
by unauthorized persons.
Your Application for service, and any other documents containing your social security
number, is filed in a secure location to which only a limited group of authorized personnel
have access. Personnel who receive your Application have strict instructions to
immediately transport such documents to the secure area and to not permit such documents to
remain on desks, in baskets or elsewhere in general work areas where they could be seen by
unauthorized personnel. Personnel are prohibited from copying or in any way duplicating
documents containing your social security number except duplication by instruction of
authorized personnel for an authorized purpose.
Your social security number does not appear in electronic form accessible on our network by
any employees not authorized to have access to your social security numbers. Firewalls,
passwords and other safeguards have been installed in our network to restrict access to your
social security number to those employees so authorized. Employees authorized to have
access to your social security numbers are prohibited from saving your social security
number, in any fashion, on a the hard drive of any laptop or other stand alone computer not
saving data on our network.
We will not include your social security number on any documents, such as monthly
statements, for which it serves no purpose. We need your social security number on file for the
purposes stated but will not use it unnecessarily so as to limit the opportunity for it to be
inadvertently disseminated.

All employees who will come in contact with your social security number are provided initial
training before they are permitted to handle any document containing social security numbers
and will be reminded, through periodical updated training, of the importance of protecting the
privacy of social security numbers and our policies which have been designed to insure such
protection, asserting the need to safeguard customers’ social security numbers. Before
discarding any customer records, employees are to shred any portion of the records that contain
a customer's social security number.
4.
Who can access your social security number?
Personnel, or clerical staff who open mail, will have access to documents containing your
social security number.
If your account is turned over for collection purposes and the attorney/collection agency
requests your social security number to assist in collection proceedings, we will provide your
number to them as our agent.
If we receive a subpoena or Court order compelling us to turn your records over to a law
enforcement agency or investigator or to a party in connection with a legal proceeding, then we
will release them, including your social security number, as required by law. If the subpoena
is issued in a civil matter, you should have the opportunity to seek a protective order or to
quash the subpoena to protect the confidentiality of your information.
5.
How will we eventually dispose of your social security number?
Once you terminate service and pay all amounts owed to us on your account, you may
request that we destroy any records containing your social security number. Upon such request,
such documents will be shredded and any electronic records will be permanently deleted.
If no request is received from you after service is terminated and fully paid for, we will retain
your records in accordance with our record retention policy and this privacy policy. If we
elect to destroy your records in accordance with our policy, the records containing your
social security number will be shredded and any electronic records containing your social
