26.0 PUCO Aqproval and Jurisdiction. Customer recognizes that the Agreement may be subject to review and approval by the PUCO. If in the opinion of SBC such approval is required, then SBC will submit the Agreement to the PUCO after it has been executed by both parties. If the PUCO requires changes in the Agreement as a condition of approval, then the parties will meet, negotiate and, if agreement is reached, make the required changes by written amendment. If either of the parties determines that such changes are not consistent with its interests, it may terminate the Agreement. If the PUCO does not approve the Agreement (as submitted or amended as required by the PUCO), then the Agreement automatically terminates. In either event, neither party will be subject to any Termination Charges as defined in paragraph 24, or to any other liability. SBC assumes full responsibility for determining whether the Agreement must be submitted to the PUCO. Approval of this Agreement by the PUCO does not constitute a determination that the terms and provisions for termination, or any resulting termination liability, of the Agreement should be upheld in a court of law. PUCO approval of the termination liability language is not intended to indicate that the PUCO has approved any terms or provisions contained therein. Signatories of this Agreement are free to pursue whatever legal remedies they may have, should a dispute of this nature arise. 27.0 Severabilitv. The illegality or invalidity of any provision of the Agreement will not affect the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions unless such holding materially adversely affects the Agreement or the Services for one or both of the parties. In the event a provision of the Agreement is found illegal or invalid, and such finding does not materially adversely affect the Agreement or the Services, the Agreement shall then be construed as if such unenforceable or unlawful provision, or portion of a provision, had not been contained therein to the extent of the inconsistency and the Agreement is fully consistent with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and Tariffs. 28.0 Optional Features. Customer shall have the option, at any time during the Agreement, of adding or removing any feature listed in the Ameritech Centrex Service Catalog or tariffs. Customer shall thereafter pay to SBC the then current service establishment and feature charges in accordance with SBC's Tariff or Catalog. The billing for such charges shall begin in the month next following that in which the feature is installed. 29.0 Amendments and Waivers. The Agreement or any part thereof or any Attachments hereto or documents referred to herein may be modified or additional provisions may be added by written agreement signed by or on behalf of both parties. No amendment or waiver of any provision of the Agreement and no consent to any default under the Agreement shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by or on behalf of the party against whom such amendment, waiver or consent is claimed. In addition, no course of dealing or failure of any party to strictly enforce any term, right or condition of the Agreement shall be construed as a waiver of such term, right or condition. 30.0 Section Headinqs. All section headings contained herein are for convenience of reference only and are not intended to define or limit the scope of any provision of the Agreement. 31.0 Multiple Oriqinals. Multiple originals of the Agreement may be executed; each is deemed an original, but all constitute the same document. 32.0 Entire Aqreement.

Neither party shall rely upon any prior oral or written statements or representations.
