surge or other power irregularity (beyond such parameters which are set
forth in the applicable Specifications); or (ii) if any repair or
modification (or attempted repair or modification) of the Product is made
other than by Nortel unless that repair or modification (or attempted
repair or modification) of the Product made by any party other than Nortel
has been specifically authorized in writing by Nortel. In the event a
repair is required as a result of (i) or (ii) above, Nortel will repair the

the failures, Nortel shall provide reasonable assistance to Avici in
performing root cause analysis of such Products and make such information
available to Avici on request.

"know-how" of every kind and description whatsoever disclosed in writing
and identified as confidential by either party to the other under this
Agreement (the "Information"), except insofar as it may be in the public
domain or be established to have been independently developed and so
documented by the other party or obtained by any person not in breach of

to second term pricing and provided Avici does not exercise buy-out options
pursuant to Schedule C.00100 6, the Agreement may be renewed for a second
18-month term. Subject to Section 15.2, the Agreement shall be self-
renewing thereafter for successive one (1) year renewal periods unless

eighteen (18) months after the Effective Date, other than for material
breach as set out in (b) below.
(b) This Agreement may be terminated at any time upon the occurrence of
any one or more of the following events of default:
(i) By either party if the other party defaults in the performance of
any material requirement or obligation under this Agreement, and
such default is not cured within (a) in the case of an issue
requiring initiation of a new production cycle to cure such

notice of such default is sent to such party or (b) in the
case of any other issue, thirty (30) Days after written
notice of such default is sent to such party (in either (a)
or (b), the "Cure Period"). This Agreement shall not,
however, terminate if the other party has cured the breach
prior to the expiration of the Cure Period or, if such
breach cannot be cured within such Cure Period, the other
party has initiated actions to cure such breach within such
Cure Period, and thereafter cures such breach as soon as
reasonably practicable;

required by this Agreement to Nortel on the date due, and
fails to cure such default within forty-five (45) Days after
written notice of such default is sent to Avici; or
(iv) By either party if the other party ceases to do business,
makes a composition or assignment for the benefit of its
creditors, makes a general arrangement with its creditors
concerning any extension or forgiveness of any of its
secured debt, becomes bankrupt or insolvent, suffers or

such that payments hereunder may be affected or delayed by a
creditor or administrator of the business of the other
party.
(c) Either party may terminate this Agreement for convenience on a ninety
(90)-Day prior written notice to the other party. In the event Avici
so terminates for convenience, Avici shall reimburse Nortel for the
actual costs incurred in connection with the Agreement work to the
date of such termination. The amount of such actual costs shall be
comprised of the cost of Products already
manufactured but not yet delivered, plus charges for a maximum of six
(6) weeks actual raw materials and work-in-process (material, labor
and overhead), plus costs of commitments to third parties, to the
extent such costs cannot be limited through termination.
(d) Termination for convenience by Avici, or termination by Nortel
pursuant to (b) above, during the first term is subject to
reimbursement by Avici of Nortel's $300,000 unrecovered sunk costs in
respect of the Activity Description less $150 per circuit pack EMC
enclosure piece part set Delivered to date. Termination for
convenience by Avici, or termination by Nortel pursuant to (b) above

$300,000 sunk costs. Termination for convenience by Nortel during the
second term will result in Nortel's forfeiture of any remaining
portion of such $115,000 sunk costs.
(f) In the event of failure to reach agreement after good faith
negotiations with regard to subsequent-term pricing at the conclusion
of a given term, the Agreement terminates as of the end of the then-
current term.
(g) In addition, in the event Nortel terminates for convenience, Avici
shall have the right within ninety (90) Days of receipt of such notice
to
(i) place a Purchase Order(s) for Products which Avici shall deem
necessary for support of its own products for three (3) months.
The number of units ordered under this subsection shall not be
greater than the monthly average of units ordered during the
six (6) months prior to Avici's receipt of notice of
termination. The Delivery of such Products shall be in
accordance with Section 4.1 above, but no later than ninety
(90) Days of the date of such termination; and
(ii) at Nortel's discretion, Nortel will I) provide on-going supply
of re-used parts or make available information necessary for

Nortel), Avici shall pay Nortel $115,000 in respect of Nortel's
unrecovered sunk costs and (g)(ii) shall apply.

Nortel shall keep the Escrow Materials current by promptly depositing
updates that correspond to any Escrow Materials.
16.2 Events of Release
Events of Release are as follows:

limitation, a consistent and material failure or refusal, or an
intentional refusal at any time when Avici is not in material breach
of this Agreement, to provide Products as required pursuant to this
Agreement for any reasons within control of Nortel, where such failure
or refusal has been the subject of a notice in writing to Nortel that
its continued failure or refusal would cause Avici to invoke its
rights under this Section 16 forty-five (45) Days after the receipt by
Nortel of such notice;
(b) An intentional refusal to accept a conforming Purchase Order from
Avici, where such refusal has been the subject of a notice in writing
to Nortel that its continued
refusal would cause Avici to invoke its rights under this Section
16 forty-five (45) Days after the recipient by Nortel of such
notice of breach under Section 15.2(i)(a), or thirty (30) Days
after the receipt by Nortel of such notice of breach under Section
15.2(i)(b);

for the general benefit of its creditors, or files a notice of
intention to make a proposal under any applicable bankruptcy or
other similar laws, is subject to the appointment of a trustee,
custodian, receiver, or receiver manager of itself or of any
substantial part of its assets, or otherwise ceases to carry on
normal business operation.
16.3 Release
16.3.1 If Avici reasonably believes that an Event of Release has occurred, and
wishes to have the Escrow Materials released, it shall provide written
notice of the occurrence of an Event of Release to the escrow agent.
Upon receipt of such notice, the escrow agent shall release the Escrow
Materials to Avici, and provide notice of such release to Nortel. If

subsequently proven by Nortel that an Event of Release did not occur:
(I) Avici shall pay to Nortel an amount equal to $100,000 (and an
additional amount for Nortel's reasonable attorney's fees), which amount
represents Nortel's liquidated damages resulting from such action by
Avici; (II) Avici shall forthwith return all Escrow Materials to the
escrow agent, or destroy all such Escrow Materials and certify to Nortel
that all such Escrow Materials
have been destroyed; and (III) the license granted by Nortel to Avici
pursuant to Section 16.4 shall terminate immediately.
SECTION 17: GENERAL
17.1 Severability
In the event that any provision of this Agreement is found to be
invalid, voidable or unenforceable, the parties agree that unless such
provision materially affects the entire intent and purpose of this
Agreement, such invalidity, voidability or unenforceability shall affect

substantially all of the assets of Avici and Nortel may assign all of
its obligations hereunder as part of a sale of substantially all of the
assets of Nortel or its Affiliates used in fulfilling such obligations,
subject to the terms hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Nortel shall
have the right to delegate or assign this Agreement to any Affiliate
subject to the consent of Avici, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. Nortel may subcontract any of its obligations hereunder
without Avici's consent.
17.4 Waiver
The failure of either party to enforce at any time or for any period of
time any of the provisions of this Agreement shall not constitute a
waiver of such provisions or the right of either party to enforce each
and every provision.

by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of
