limited to, individual exchange network access and private line channel
services, that are connected to ML, may be increased during this
period.
3. Recognition of previous service will be given to the Subscriber who
renews an existing contract arrangement, for the same or larger
system(s) and all associated rate elements at the same location(s),
provided that the length of the new contract arrangement is a minimum
