supply to offenders internally;
• Authorized personnel will have access to offender PAN lists which may be printed
from the System.
• If approved by the Department for statewide implementation the Department will
establish procedures for establishing PAN lists for new offenders entering the system

Implementation of Friends and Family Debit:
The Department and the Contractor agree to implement Friends and Family Debit – also
known as V-Direct by August 2009. V-Direct enables adding funds directly to an
offender’s personal phone account allowing the offender to place calls to anyone
anywhere on his/her PAN that may not qualify for traditional collect billing (such as cell
phones, VoIP phones, and international calls) and in the case of in-state calling a
discount price. There shall be charge to initially set up the personal phone account. The
Department and the Contractor agree that this debit account will be used by the
Contractor to deposit funds each year in each offender’s V-Direct account equal to the
cost of one 20-minute in state call, currently $3.15 (plus tax).
Coyote Ridge Corrections Center:
The Department and the Contractor will work cooperatively to add additional offender
phones and associated equipment to accommodate the planned increase in offender
population at the Coyote Ridge Corrections Center. The Contractor will use its best
efforts to match increasing offender population with phone service capacity.
Additions to the text of Contract No. CDOC6840 are shown by underline and deletions by
