RE: CONFIDENTIALITY REQUEST

Freedom Telecom Services, Inc. d/b/a FTS Fiber
To Whom It May Concern:
For the reasons set forth below, Freedom Telecom Services, Inc. d/b/a FTS Fiber (FTS)
respectfully requests that the documents which are marked as Confidential herein are treated
as strictly confidential.
FTS is not a publicly traded company. As such, FTS is not required to file financial statements
with the Securities Exchange Commission. Any financial statements and related notes included
herein contain sensitive financial and proprietary information of the company, which the
company protects from disclosure due to its nature.
FTSs business strategies, designs, plans and pricing models are unique and distinguished from
its competitors strategies and are also held as confidential. Customers rely on FTSs unique
approach to providing diverse fiber solutions, which is what sets FTS apart from other
companies in the telecommunications industry. FTS discloses confidential, proprietary
information only on a need to know basis and under strict adherence to non-disclosure and
confidentiality agreements.
Public disclosure of any of this information would cause undue harm and detriment to FTS by
releasing sensitive information to competitors in Maryland and other jurisdictions and allowing
them access to confidential information and strategies would give competitors an undeserved
advantage in the bidding market.
Due to the sensitive nature of the information, it is appropriate for the County to limit access to
the Confidential Information, which is being provided for the sole purpose of the examination
and evaluation of a business proposal.
The Applicant hereby requests that the County protect and/or treat the statements, documents
and related notes marked as Confidential as both confidential and proprietary, in that such
material contains information concerning confidential and private financial and business
information.
Thank you for your cooperation. Please contact me with any questions regarding this matter.
Very truly yours,
Brett C. Hill, CEO

Executive Summary
FTS Fiber is excited to present this proposal y
high-speed internet connectivity to y anchor sites,
businesses and residents. The proposed superior platform will provide a modernized fiber
optic solution with up to 40 times more throughput than the incumbent solution. The network
ll y usinesses and residents
FTS Fiber will deploy the network in phases:

Phase I
- May/June 2018 High-speed connectivity between the first 15 buildings complete
Phase II
- ebruary 201 High-speed connectivity between 11 buildings complete
Phase III
- ember/December 2019 High-speed connectivity between 7 buildings complete
Phase IV
- c ber 2020 High-speed connectivity between the remaining 6 buildings complete
*Project deployment phases are subject to change based on contract award and approval date.
Time to market is critical when evaluating project because the demand

for technology is growing at exponential rates. Those who make investments to offer further
availability to bandwidth and technology receive documented returns. In evaluating the
long-term value to Fauquier County in the investment proposed, we are considering the
following factors:
In a study commissioned by Facebook, Deloitte estimates that if developing

regions achieve internet access levels seen today in developed regions, their long
run productivity could increase by about 25%.
According to the US Department of Commerce, for every one-million dollar
invested in broadband development, 15 additional jobs will be created.
According to the US Department of Commerce, communities with superior
broadband access experience greater employment growth, new business
establishment, and property value.
ccess to broadband in schools and libraries, coupled with better access
to broadband in the home, offers expanded learning y y
Our ultimately provide a quick to market, lasting solution for Fauquier

County aligns with the ountys objectives to maintain a strong fiscal position, cost
effectively invest in technology and infrastructure improve and
focus on driving economic growth. We believe the solution positions Fauquier County as a
leading example for how counties should implement a orld lass tate of the rt roadband
iber etwork. FTS is excited about the opportunity to work with Fauquier County
leadership on this important initiative and we look forward to meeting with you to discuss the
details of how our proposal meets your vision to achieve implementation of a high-speed
internet service.

Technical Proposal
Introduction
FTS Fiber (FTS) is a registered CLEC in the Commonwealth of Virginia under the name of
Freedom Telecom Services of VA, LLC and is wholly owned by Freedom Telecom Services, Inc.
d/b/a FTS Fiber. See Section E Legal Documentation.
FTS is a wholesale fiber provider offering carrier-class network infrastructure in both rural areas
and major markets of the Mid-Atlantic region. We install, operate, and maintain reliable and
secure, open access fiber networks for various markets, including Underserved Municipalities,
Content and Internet Service Providers (ISP), E-rate (Schools and Libraries), Federal Government,
Enterprise, Data Centers, International Subsea Cables, and Wireless Technology. Our network is
constructed with state of the art fiber to deliver the lowest attenuation and latency possible with
improved Optical Signal Noise Ratio (OSNR) and Bit Error Rate (BER), reducing the need for
amplification.
Scope of Work - Dark Fiber Build

FTS is proposing to install an approximate 129-mile diverse dark fiber optic network to meet
Fauquier Countys need for quality high-speed internet service. This dark fiber network will be
constructed in 4 phases and will connect 39 of the Countys priority sites. Phase I includes
connecting 15 sites throughout Goldvein, Bealeton, Midland, and Catlett. Phase II includes
connecting 11 sites throughout Remington, Warrenton, and Nokesville. Phase III includes
connecting 7 sites throughout Warrenton, Marshall, and The Plains. Phase IV includes
connecting 6 sites throughout Orlean, Marshall, Markham, and Upperville.
The dark fiber network will consist of the latest fiber optic glass technology, and to meet the
bandwidth demands of the sites, FTS will be granting 12 strands to the County. FTS Fiber will
utilize underground construction wherever possible to maximize security, allowing for the
lowest loss and latency available. FTS will deliver the core fiber infrastructure and a fully
operational network in just a little under 3 years. This includes laterals from the backbone to all
sites and redundant optical connections on all sites.
The likely risks associated with implementing the proposed dark fiber network includes:
Weather inclement weather can delay engineering and construction of the network.
Dependence on other parties FTS schedule is dependent on the timely release of
permits from state and local jurisdictions as well as on a limited basis pole attachment
rights from utility pole owners. Should third party entities take longer than normal in
granting rights to FTS would have a trickle-down effect on all other portions of
schedule.
International manufacturing and transport aterials used in construction specifically to
optical cable are manufactured by limited parties worldwide. In the event of a natural
disaster, such as an earthquake in Japan, disruptions in the supply chain could impede the
ability to receive materials in a timely manner for install.

Rural Pennsylvania Cellular Backhaul

In order to support LTE traffic on key cell towers along the interstate system in rural
Pennsylvania, operator Verizon Wireless required a transport solution delivering a minimum of
300MBs to each of their cell towers. Given the rural operating providers, the incumbent
providers were not able to facilitate that bandwidth at several locations. FTS Fiber worked
closely with Verizon Wireless to create a dark fiber solution, connecting 16 cell towers across 5
counties in Pennsylvania, and offering 1 GBs backhaul at each tower. Verizon Wireless
accepted the Fujitsu CDS platform as their equipment choice to light the FTS Fiber, for a low
latency, high availability platform for optimum network operation.

Kent County Fiber Optic Network

Kent County issued an RFP for the design and construction of a Fiber Optic Broadband Network.
Kent Countys mission was to create a fiber infrastructure that would improve connectivity to
essential anchor institutions, priority funding areas, industrial parks and communities around the
county. In response we presented a proposal with a unique funding approach and faster timeline
that exceeded Kent Countys goal of providing high-speed internet connectivity to its residents.
Along with other Maryland based partners (Team FTS), we proposed a solution to replace the
costly, limited, and unreliable services available with the existing backbone of incumbent
Internet Service Providers (ISP) in Kent County. Our platform offered a modernized fiber optic
solution with up to 40 times more throughput than the incumbent solution that would also deliver
one gigabit of internet access to every home. Most importantly, the network acted as a source of
economic growth and improvement upon quality of life for businesses and residents.

WORLDWIDE LEADING PLAYER
Prysmian Group works for utilities and electrical grid operators all over the world on some of the major submarine power inter-
connection projects, including the Westernlink between Scotland and England, SAPEI in Italy and the Trans Bay, Neptune and
Hudson projects in the United States. It has also helped build the electrical grids in some of the worlds largest cities, from New
York to Buenos Aires, from London to St. Petersburg, and from Singapore to Hong Kong. In the renewable energy sector, Prysmian
Group is a world leader in connections for offshore wind farms, with technology that includes cables for wind turbine operation,
inter-array cables and cables for mainland connection.
In addition to its involvement in major projects realised in recent years throughout Europe, particularly in the United Kingdom, the
Group has supplied cabling solutions for the SylWin1 wind farm in Germany.
We support the petrochemicals industry with a wide range of high-tech products. A strategic technical cooperation agreement
with Petrobras has introduced Prysmian Group to the sector of high-tech flexible pipes for oil drilling, which, combined with our
existing production of umbilical cables for offshore oil platforms, allows us to offer oil, gas and petrochemicals operators a com-
plete range of SURF (Subsea Umbilical, Riser and Flowline) products and services.
Prysmian Group is the worlds top manufacturer of telecom cables; the wide range of copper and fibre solutions for voice, video
and data, continuous investment in R&D and more than 30 dedicated factories allow us to support information flows between
communities around the world. High fibre-count ribbon cables are helping the Australian government to achieve its goal of creat-
ing a Fibre-to-the-Premises network that will connect 93% of the countrys residential and commercial buildings. The quality of
Draka optical fibre was chosen for the construction of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the largest particle accelerator at CERN in
Geneva. The 1,500km of cables installed in the tunnel have allowed us to receive a Golden Hadron, an award for suppliers that
not only meet the needs and requirements of CERN, but also exceed their contractual obligations.
In the construction sector, our fire-resistant and elevator cables can be found in the very heart of the most spectacular, state-
of-the-art developments, like the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, the worlds tallest building at 828 metres high, the Wimbledon tennis
stadium and Masdar City in the Arab Emirates and the Marina Bay Sands in Singapore, one of the most challenging construction
projects in the world.
In the transport sector we have cabled some of the worlds biggest aircraft and ships, like the Royal Caribbeans GENESIS fleet,
its fastest trains, like those designed by Alstom and Siemens, and its most innovative metro systems, like the London Under-
ground and the system in Istanbul. By measuring the thickness of ice on land and water, satellites equipped with our cables are
able to see half the planet by providing detailed images of specific places and evidence of climatic change. We are proud to be
involved in major space projects as a partner of the European Space Agency.

analytics. Juniper Networks Service Control Gateway (SCG) is an innovative services solution that
facilitates this transformation, helping you achieve service agility and efficiency at scale.
The Service Control Gateway supports multiple services organically, including carrier-grade
NAT, firewall, server load balancing, IP/MPLS VPNs, switching, and routingwhich reduces
network cost and complexity by eliminating numerous elements, operating systems, and
element interconnections.
The Service Control Gateway utilizes subscriber awareness, deep packet inspection
(DPI), and policy management to determine traffic treatment on a per-subscriber and
per-application basis, enabling highly customizable and differentiated services at scale.
Working with Juniper Networks Contrail Cloud Platform, the SCG can steer traffic into
complex service chains that include onboarding services as well as other physical and
virtual appliances. This granular understanding of traffic flows provides a rich set of data
to analytics engines and back-office systems to permit real-time charging and end-user
engagement at the application and content level.
Implemented on Juniper Networks MX Series 3D Universal Edge Routers, the SCG solution
scales to provide the capacity and performance needed to confidently meet traffic
demands today and tomorrow. A wide range of services can be implemented directly on
Modular Port Concentrators (MPCs), as well as on MS-MPCs and MS-MICs that provide
dedicated compute resources for processor-intensive applications. Both MPCs and MS-

Modular Port Concentrators

for MX Series 3D Universal
Edge Routers

Modular Port Concentrators are Modular Port Concentrators (MPCs) are single-slot line cards for Juniper Networks MX240,
powered by the programmable MX480, and MX960 3D Universal Edge Routers, as well as the MX20001 line of 3D Universal
Trio chipset and provide high- Edge Routers. Powered by the programmable Trio chipset, MPCs support a wide range of Layer
speed packet processing, 2, Layer 2.5, and Layer 3 services, integrated telemetry, and standards-based transport-class
forwarding, and network network timing, as well as a wide variety of connectivity options to address the broadest range
connectivity options for chassis- of service provider, cloud, and enterprise applications.
based MX Series 3D Universal
Edge Routers. Architecture and Key Components
Modular Port Concentrators and Modular Interface Cards
MPCs support comprehensive L2/L3 switching and routing, MPLS, inline services, and
wireline forwarding, among many other features. Additionally, MPCs can collect and stream
component-level statistics that identify resource utilization, loss and delay measurements,
and queue depth. Currently, the MPC1E through MPC5E and MPC7E are available for the
MX2000 line, MX960, MX480, and MX240.2
MPCs provide network connectivity directly or via hosted Modular Interface Cards (MICs)
that allow users to mix and match interfaces.
The MPC-3D-16XGE-SFPP, MPC4E, MPC5E, and MPC7E offer a variety of fixed

Ethernet interfaces.
The MPC1E, MPC2E, NG-MPC2E, MPC3E, and NG-MPC3E host two MIC slots.
MPCs optionally support licensed inline services, including video and flow monitoring,
lawful intercept, network address translation (NAT), tunnel services (generic routing
encapsulation [GRE] and IP over IP [IP-IP]), IP reassembly, Multilink Point-to-Point
Protocol (MLPPP), Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP), L2TP access concentrator (LAC),
and L2TP network server (LNS).
Multiservices MPCs and Multiservices MICs

MS-MPCs are single-slot service cards for the MX960, MX480, and MX240 that provide
dedicated processing for network edge services (carrier-grade NAT, IPsec, stateful firewall,
deep packet inspection [DPI], flow monitoring, and other compute-intensive services).
MS-MICs are modular service processing cards for the MPC1E, MPC2E, NG-MPC2E, MPC3E,
and NG-MPC3E that provide dedicated processing for network edge services (carrier-grade
NAT, IPsec, stateful firewall, deep packet inspection [DPI], flow monitoring, and other
compute-intensive services).

Features and Benefits

Feature Description Benefit
Modularity Increase scale and performance by adding more MPCs to Nondisruptive
existing chassis. Investment protection
Each generation of MPC increases throughput and port Agile and efficient
density while maintaining compatibility with pre-existing Capitally efficient
MPCs.
Mix and match MPCs and MICs to meet specific
requirements.
MPC7E multi-rate ports improve capital efficiency by
supporting multiple Ethernet rates (10GbE, 40GbE, and
100GbE). This approach, which would typically consume two
or three slots on a traditional edge router, also provides built-
in scale and investment protection.
Integrated services All services share the same OS and chassis; no extra space, Lower TCO
power, or cabling are needed for external probes and High service performance and scale
appliances.
The MS-MPC offers dedicated compute resources for
processor-intensive applications without impacting control
or forwarding planes.
Cross-platform consistency Common hardware (programmable Trio chipset) and Operational and feature consistency
and portability software (Junos OS) on all MPCs enable nondisruptive Investment protection
network evolution.
All MPCs can be supported side by side in the same chassis .
Embedded analytics MPCs stream component-level data to monitoring, analytics, Improved network operations and utilization
and performance management applications, as well as Path
Computation Elements such as Juniper Networks NorthStar
Controller.
Junos Continuity Junos Continuity allows the use of new MPCs in an MX Series No OS upgrade or reboot
router without requiring a Juniper Networks Junos operating
system upgrade or system reboot, reducing the barriers
associated with new MPC adoption by:
Reducing the risk of service downtime
Reducing the time to qualify (new card only, not OS and
upgrade procedures)
Reducing the cost to qualify (less burden on staff, time in lab,
time spent testing)
