The Parties have negotiated their respective rights and obligations pursuant to substantive Federal

to applicable rules and orders, is intended to expand on the Parties’ rights and obligations as set
forth herein. This Agreement also contains certain provisions that were negotiated without regard
to the Parties’ obligations as set forth Section 251 of the Act. To the extent the provisions of this
Agreement differ from the provisions of any Federal or State Telecommunications statute, rule or
order in effect as of the execution of this Agreement, this Agreement shall control. Each Party shall
comply at its own expense with all other laws of general applicability.
