         Section 9.        Minimum Commitment

         a)       Customer agrees to achieve a Minimum Annual Commitment ("MAC")

                                       2


         b)       If Customer is unable to satisfy the MAC for a Contract  Year,
                  Customer  may "carry  forward"  up to [**] of the MAC for such
                  Contract Year and add such amount to the MAC for the following
                  Contract  Year.  If  Customer is unable to satisfy the MAC, as
                  adjusted,  in the last Contract Year of this  Agreement,  then
                  the last  Contract  Year  will be  extended  for 3  additional
                  months.  If, at the conclusion of such extension,  Customer is
                  unable to satisfy the MAC, as adjusted, then Customer must pay
                  SPRINT,  in  addition  to all other  charges,  the  difference
                  between  the MAC, as  adjusted,  and  Customer's  Contributory
                  Services Usage Charges in the last Contract Year.

         c)       If Customer terminates this Agreement or ceases to use Network
                  Services to any material  extent,  Customer will pay to SPRINT
                  the MAC  divided  by 12  multiplied  by the  number of billing
                  months  remaining in the Term.  SPRINT will bill  customer for
                  such amount on its next  regular  invoice and such amount will
                  be due and payable according to the payment terms contained in
                  this Agreement.

         d)       At any time  during the Term,  Customer  may elect to increase
                  its MAC by  providing  at  least 30 days'  written  notice  to
                  SPRINT of its intent to  increase  its MAC.  Customer  may not
                  decrease its MAC.

         1)       SPRINT  may  order  and  manage on  Customer's  behalf  access
                  services for use in connection with the Products and Services.
                  Customer  will supply  SPRINT with letters of agency to permit
                  SPRINT to act on Customer's  behalf to order and manage access
                  services.  The local access provider will invoice SPRINT,  and
                  SPRINT will invoice Customer for access services; or

         2)       Customer may directly  order and manage  access  services from
                  the local access provider; or

         3)       Customer may choose SPRINT's  Coordinated Vendor Billed Access
                  ("SCVBA") service.  If Customer selects this option,  Customer
                  will supply  SPRINT with letters of agency to permit SPRINT to
                  act as  Customer's  agent to order,  test and  install  access
                  service, but the access provider will bill Customer directly.

b)       With SPRINT's prior written approval, SPRINT will permit SAVVIS to have
         Customer-provided  access to Customer Equipment that is collocated in a
         SPRINT facility.  Upon SPRINT's approval,  SPRINT will provide a Letter
         of Agency  ("LOA")  and a  Connecting  Facility  Assignment  ("CFA") to
         permit an access  provider to use common  entrance  facilities into the
         SPRINT  facility.  Approval is subject to the availability of bandwidth
         at the common  entrance  facility.  The access  provider must provide a
         Design Layout Record  ("DLR") to build the access circuit to the SPRINT
         facility.  SPRINT will be  responsible  for installing the cabling from
         the POP crossconnect switch to Customer's Equipment.

c)       SPRINT will use due care to (i)  monitor,  direct,  and  supervise  the
         performance  of all local access  providers  it orders  access from and

         (ii) enforce any warranties and other assurances of performance  SPRINT
         has from such access  providers;  or (iii) report  promptly to Customer
         any  actual  or  threatened  failure  of  performance  by  such  access
         providers  that does or could  reasonably be expected to materially and
         adversely  affect SPRINT's ability to provide any Product or Service in

17.      ATTACHMENT B, DOMESTIC PRICING,  SECTION X (ATM SERVICES) IS DELETED IN
         ITS ENTIRETY AND REPLACED AS FOLLOWS:

         X.       DOMESTIC SPRINT ATM SERVICES

         1.)      Pricing Components for Domestic SPRINT ATM Services.  Domestic
                  Sprint ATM Services are a high bandwidth fast packet switching
                  technology  based  on fixed  length  cells  of 53  bytes.  The
                  following are the primary  pricing  components of the standard
                  SPRINT Domestic ATM Services offerings.

                  a)       Local Access  Facilities  - Local  access  facilities
                           means the  physical  telco or leased line  connecting
                           customer's  premise to the Sprint ATM network.  Local
                           access facilities  compatible with Sprint ATM Service
                           include  T1, T3,  OC3c,  and OC12.  Either  SPRINT or
                           customer  may  provide the local  access  facilities.
                           Charges for  SPRINT-provided  local access facilities
                           include   local   access   line    charges,    Access
                           Coordination   Fees  ("ACF"),   and  Central   Office
                           Connection      ("COC")     fees.     Charges     for
                           customer-provided local access facilities include COC
                           and Entrance  Facility Charges  ("EFC").  SPRINT will
                           charge customer a non-recurring  charge and a monthly
                           recurring charge.

                  b)       Port - Port means the physical entrance to the Sprint
                           ATM network.  SPRINT will charge  customer a one-time
                           installation  charge  and a fixed  monthly  recurring
                           charge  for each ATM port.  Sprint ATM  Service  port
                           bandwidths include SPRINT DS1, NxDS1, DS3, and OC3.

                  c)       Permanent  Virtual  Circuit  ("PVC")  - PVC means the
                           pre-established  logical  connection  between two ATM
                           ports for information transfer. Sprint ATM PVCs carry
                           traffic  in one  direction.  The  three  PVC  service
                           categories are:

                           1.       Constant  Bit  Rate  ("CBR")  PVCs  are  for
                                    steady  traffic  that is  sensitive to delay
                                    variation.  For each CBR PVC,  customer will
                                    select the PVC's  Peak Cell Rate  ("PCR") to
                                    define  the  maximum   rate  at  which  user
                                    traffic  will be  allowed  to  traverse  the
                                    Sprint ATM network.

                           2.       Variable Bit Rate, Non-Real Time ("VBR-nrt")
                                    PVCs are for  "bursty"  data traffic that is
                                    insensitive  to small delay  variation.  For
                                    each VBR-nrt PVC,  customer  will select the
                                    PVC's  PCR to  define  the  maximum  rate at
                                    which  user   traffic  will  be  allowed  to
                                    traverse  the  Sprint ATM  network,  and the
                                    PVC's  Sustainable  Cell Rate  ("SCR").  SCR
                                    means  the  average  rate  of an  end-to-end
                                    connection measured over a defined interval.

                           3.       Unspecified  Bit Rate  ("UBR")  PVCs are for
                                    data traffic that is not  sensitive to delay
                                    variation.  For UBR PVCs, a specific PCR and
                                    SCR  are  not  assigned  and  cells  may  be
                                    transmitted up to the port bandwidth,  if it
                                    is  available.   UBR  PVCs  are  subject  to
                                    availability.

                           PCR and  SCR,  where  applicable,  are  available  in
                           increments of 64 Kbps and 1 Mbps.  Customer may order
                           multiple  one-way PVCs per port,  each with different
                           PCR  and  SCR,   subject  to  the  port's   allowable
                           bandwidth.  The total PCRs  associated  with  VBR-nrt
                           PVCs  will not  exceed  [**] of the  Sprint  ATM port
                           bandwidth, and the total SCRs associated with VBR-nrt
                           PVCs  will not  exceed  [**] of the  Sprint  ATM port
                           bandwidth.  For all PVCs' service categories,  SPRINT
                           will  charge  customer  a one time PVC  establishment
                           charge  per PVC and PVC  monthly  recurring  charges.
                           Monthly  recurring PVC charges  include  either Usage
                           Charges based on the  delivered  traffic per month or
                           fixed  monthly  recurring  charges based on the PVC's
                           PCR or SCR and service category.

                  d)       Switched Virtual Circuit  ("SVC").  SPRINT offers UBR
                           SVC service.  For SVCs, SPRINT charges a usage charge
                           per SVC based on the  delivered  traffic per megacell
                           per month.  With SVC  service,  the calling  party is
                           charged for the SVC usage  originating  from both the
                           calling  party and the called  party.  There is not a
                           non-recurring establishment charge for SVCs.

                  e)       Gateway and Service Interworking Charges.


                           1.     Domestic  Sprint ATM to Domestic  Sprint Frame

                                  Sprint  ATM to  Domestic  Sprint  Frame  Relay
                                  Service  Interworking  PVCs  carry  traffic in
                                  both directions. SPRINT will charge Customer a
                                  one-time and a monthly recurring charge, based
                                  on  the  PVC's   Peak   Cell   Rate   ("PCR").
                                  Additional  charges  apply  for  the  Domestic
                                  Sprint  Frame  Relay to  Domestic  Sprint  ATM
