subject to Company initiated change during such period.
The monthly rates for Frame Relay Service and Broadband Exchange Line Service in
effect at the time the Service is installed and/or as of the service order
application date will be in effect until the expiration of the service period
chosen by the Subscriber. Other rates applicable to other services provided by
the Company, including but not limited to, feature charges and private line
channel services, that are connected to Frame Relay Service, may be increased

establishment of Service, but after the date or ordering reflected herein, the
Subscriber is required to reimburse the Company for all expenses incurred in
handling the request before the notice of cancellation is received. Such
charge however, is not to exceed the sum of all charges which would apply if
the work involved in complying with the request had been completed.

arrange to have existing Service under this Agreement moved within the same
