Cincinnati Bell Inc., Cincinnati Bell Wireless Company, Cincinnati Bell Entertainment Inc. and Cincinnati Bell Complete Protection Inc. are incorporated in the State of Ohio and Cincinnati Bell Telecommunication Services LLC, Cincinnati Bell Wireless LLC, Cincinnati Bell Shared Services LLC and eVolve Business Solutions LLC are organized under the laws of the State of Ohio.

Section 1701.13(E) of the Ohio General Corporation Law (the “OGCL”) contains provisions for indemnification of a corporation’s directors, officers and other personnel, and related matters. Section 1701.13(E)(1) of the OGCL permits a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any proceeding, other than an action by or in the right of the corporation, because the person is or was a director or officer, against expenses, including attorney’s fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement reasonably incurred by the director or officer in connection with the proceeding if (1) the director or officer acted in good faith and in a manner the director or officer reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and (2) with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, the director or officer had no reasonable cause to believe the director’s or officer’s conduct was unlawful.

Section 1701.13(E)(2) of the OGCL permits a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any proceeding, by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor, because the person is or was a director or officer against expenses, including attorney’s fees, reasonably incurred by the director or officer in connection with the proceeding if the director or officer acted in good faith and in a manner the director or officer reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that a corporation may not indemnify a director

II-1

or officer if either (1) the director or officer has been adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of the director’s or officer’s duty to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the court in which the proceeding was brought determines that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, the director or officer is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper or (2) the only liability asserted against a director in a proceeding is for the director voting for or assenting to the following: (a) the payment of a dividend or distribution, the making of a distribution of assets to shareholders, or the purchase or redemption of the corporation’s own shares in violation of law or the corporation’s articles of incorporation; (b) a distribution of assets to shareholders during the winding up of the affairs of the corporation, on dissolution or otherwise, without the payment of all known obligations of the corporation or without making adequate provision for their payment; or (c) the making of a loan, other than in the usual course of business, to an officer, director or shareholder of the corporation, unless at the time the loan was made, a majority of the disinterested directors of the corporation voted for the loan and taking into account the terms and provisions of the loan and other relevant factors, determined that the making of the loan could reasonably be expected to benefit the corporation.

Section 1701.13(E)(3) of the OGCL provides that to the extent that a director or officer has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of a proceeding referred to in division (E)(1) or (2) of Section 1701.13, the director or officer must be indemnified against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with such a proceeding.

Section 1701.13(E)(4) of the OGCL provides that any indemnification under division (E)(1) or (2) of Section 1701.13, unless ordered by a court, shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case, upon a determination that the director or officer has met the applicable standard of conduct. Section 1701.13(E)(4) further provides that the determination shall be made by: (1) a majority of a quorum of the directors who are not parties to such proceeding; (2) if there is no such quorum of directors, or if a majority vote of disinterested directors so directs, in a written opinion by independent legal counsel; (3) by the shareholders; or (4) by the court of common pleas or by the court in which the proceeding was brought.

Section 1701.13(E)(5)(a) of the OGCL provides that unless (1) the articles or regulations of a corporation specifically state otherwise or (2) the only liability asserted against a director in a proceeding is for the director voting for or assenting to any of the following: (a) the payment of a dividend or distribution, the making of a distribution of assets to shareholders, or the purchase or redemption of the corporation’s own shares in violation of law or the corporation’s articles of incorporation; (b) a distribution of assets to shareholders during the winding up of the affairs of the corporation, on dissolution or otherwise, without the payment of all known obligations of the corporation or without making adequate provision for their payment; or (c) the making of a loan, other than in the usual course of business, to an officer, director or shareholder of the corporation, other than in the case of at the time the loan was made, a majority of the disinterested directors of the corporation voted for the loan and taking into account the terms and provisions of the loan and other relevant factors, determined that the making of the loan could reasonably be expected to benefit the corporation, the corporation must pay expenses as they are incurred by the director or officer in defending the proceeding if the director or officer undertakes to (i) repay the amount so paid if it is proven by clear and convincing evidence that the director’s or officer’s action or failure to act involved an act or omission undertaken with deliberate intent to cause injury to the corporation or undertaken with reckless disregard for the best interests of the corporation and (ii) reasonably cooperate with the corporation concerning the proceeding.

Section 1701.13(E)(5)(b) of the OGCL provides that a corporation may advance expenses to a director or officer before the final disposition of a proceeding if the director or officer undertakes to repay the amount so advanced if it is ultimately determined that the director or officer is not entitled to indemnification.

Section 1701.13(E)(7) of the OGCL permits corporations to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any director or officer against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in his capacity as a director or officer, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify the director or officer against such liability under Section 1701.13 of the OGCL.

Section 1705.32(B) of the OLLCA provides that a limited liability company may indemnify any person who was or is a party or who is threatened to be made a party to any action or suit by or in the right of the company to procure a judgment in its favor, because he is or was a manager or officer of the company. Section 1705.32(B) further provides that the company may indemnify a manager or officer against expenses, including attorney’s fees, that were reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the company, except that an indemnification shall not be made in respect of any claim as to which the person is adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to the company unless and only to the extent that the court of common pleas or the court in which the action was brought determines that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification for expenses that the court considers proper.

Section 1705.32(C) of the OLLCA provides that to the extent that a manager or officer of a limited liability company has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action referred to in division (A) or (B) of Section 1705.32, he shall be indemnified against expenses, including attorney’s fees, that were reasonably incurred by him in connection with the action.

Section 1705.32(F) further provides that the insurance or similar protection purchased or maintained for those persons may be for any liability asserted against them and incurred by them in their capacity as a manager or member or for any liability arising out of their status as a manager or member, whether or not the company would have the power to indemnify them against that liability under Section 1705.32.

Section 1705.32(G) of the OLLCA provides that a limited liability company may pay expenses of persons entitled to indemnification under Section 1705.32 as they are incurred, in advance of the final disposition of an action or the payment of indemnification or insurance pursuant to Section 1705.32.

Section 13.1-697 of the VSCA provides that, except as provided below, a corporation may indemnify an individual made a party to a proceeding because he is or was a director against liability and reasonable expenses incurred in the proceeding if: (1) he conducted himself in good faith; (2) he believed (i) in the case of conduct in his official capacity with the corporation, that his conduct was in the best interests of the corporation; and (b) in all other cases, that his conduct was at least not opposed to the best interests of the corporation; and (3) in the case of any criminal proceeding, he had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. Section 13.1-697 further provides that, unless ordered by a court under subsection C of Section 13.1-700.1 of the VSCA, a corporation may not indemnify a director (1) in connection with a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation except for reasonable expenses incurred

Section 13.1-698 of the VSCA provides that, unless limited by its articles of incorporation, a corporation shall indemnify a director who entirely prevails in the defense of any proceeding to which he was a party because he is or was a director of the corporation against reasonable expenses incurred by him in connection with the proceeding.

Section 13.1-699 of the VSCA permits corporations to pay for or reimburse the reasonable expenses incurred by a director who is a party to a proceeding in advance of final disposition of the proceeding if: (1) the director furnishes the corporation a written statement of his good faith belief that he has met the standard of conduct described in Section 13.1-697 of the VSCA; (2) the director furnishes the corporation a written undertaking, executed personally or on his behalf, to repay the advance if the director is not entitled to mandatory indemnification and it is ultimately determined under Section 13.1-700.1 or 13.1-701 of the VSCA that he did not meet the relevant standard of conduct; and (3) payment is authorized (a) if there are two or more disinterested directors, by a majority vote of all the disinterested directors, a majority of whom shall for such purpose constitute a quorum, or by a majority of the members of a committee of two or more disinterested directors appointed by such a vote, (b) if there are fewer than two disinterested directors, by the vote necessary for action by the board in accordance with subsection C of Section 13.1-688 of the VSCA, in which authorization directors who do not qualify as disinterested directors may participate or (c) by the shareholders, but shares owned by or voted under the control of a director who at the time does not qualify as a disinterested director may not be voted on the authorization.

Section 13.1-700.1 of the VSCA provides that with respect to a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation, the court may order indemnification of the director to the extent of his reasonable expenses if it determines that, considering all the relevant circumstances, the director is entitled to indemnification even though he may have been adjudged liable to the corporation.

Section 13.1-701 of the VSCA provides that a corporation may not indemnify a director unless a determination has been made that indemnification of the director is permissible in the circumstances because he has met the standard of conduct set forth in Section 13.1-697.

Section 13.1-702 of the VSCA provides that unless limited by a corporation’s articles of incorporation, an officer of a corporation is entitled to mandatory indemnification under Section 13.1-698 of the VSCA, and is entitled to apply for court-ordered indemnification under Section 13.1-700.1 of the VSCA, in each case to the same extent as a director. Section 13.1-702 of the VSCA further provides that the corporation may indemnify and advance expenses to an officer of the corporation to the same extent as to a director.

Section 13.1-704 of the VSCA provides that any corporation shall have the power to make any further indemnity, including indemnity with respect to a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation, and to make additional provision for advances and reimbursement of expenses, to any director or officer that may be authorized by the articles of incorporation or any by-law made by the shareholders or any resolution adopted by the shareholders, except an indemnity against (1) willful misconduct, or (2) a knowing violation of criminal law.

We provide liability insurance for our directors and officers for certain losses arising from certain claims and charges, including claims and charges under the Securities Act of 1933, which may be made

II-7

against such persons while acting in their capacities as directors and officers of Cincinnati Bell Inc. or its subsidiaries.

The foregoing statements are subject to the detailed provisions of the OGCL, the DGCL, the OLLCA, the DLLCA, the VSCA and the VALLCA and to the applicable provisions of each of the Registrants’ Articles or Certificate of Incorporation, Operating Agreements, Regulations and By-laws, as applicable.

Item 17.

Undertakings

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that clauses (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (1)(iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those clauses is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act that is part of the registration statement;

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering;

(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:

(i) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

II-8

(ii) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) under the Securities Act as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B under the Securities Act relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) under the Securities Act for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B under the Securities Act, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which the prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date;

(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act;

(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such

II-9

indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(d) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to file an application for the purpose of determining the eligibility of the Trustee to act under subsection (a) of Section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act, in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed by the SEC under Section 305(b)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act.
