2.6 FORECAST.
During the term of this Agreement, Sprint will furnish Supplier, on a
monthly basis, with a non-binding 180-day rolling forecast of its Orders for
Deliverables.
2.7 CPE EQUIPMENT LEAD TIME REDUCTION
In the event Sprint makes a binding commitment to purchase a fixed
amount of CPE Equipment, then commencing 60 days from the date of Sprint's
commitment Supplier will make such CPE Equipment available for shipment to
Sprint within 8 weeks from the date of any Sprint Order for CPE Equipment placed
on or after the 60 days. Supplier will use commercially reasonable efforts to
reduce all CPE Equipment lead times.
3.0 ACCEPTANCE OF ORDER
3.1 ACCEPTANCE.
Supplier must accept any Order issued by Sprint that does not
materially exceed the forecast provided to Supplier pursuant to Section
2.6 or the manufacturing capacity or lead times of Supplier set forth
on Schedule 3.1.
3.2 SHIPMENT DATE.
Supplier will ship the Equipment ordered on the shipment date contained
in any Order accepted by Supplier.
3.3 DAMAGES FOR DELAY.
(A) If shipment from Supplier to Sprint's designated location
is delayed more than 5 consecutive calendar days beyond the designated
shipment date, Supplier agrees to pay liquidated damages calculated as
1/2% of the price of the Order, for each business day of delay after
the initial 5 days, up to a maximum of 15% of the total amount of such
Order to the extent such Order is comprised of CPE Equipment and up to
a maximum of 10% of such Order to the extent such Order is comprised of
Base Station Equipment. Liquidated damages will be calculated only on
the portion of the Order delayed and the portion of the Order Sprint is
unable to use because a portion of the Order is delayed.
(B) Supplier will ship at least 80% of all Orders scheduled
for shipment in a consecutive 3-month period in accordance with the
terms of this Section 3.0 prior to or within 5 business days of the
scheduled shipment date for such Orders (the "Fulfillment Standard").
Supplier's compliance with the Fulfillment Standard will be measured in
each rolling 3-month period. In the event Supplier fails to meet the
Fulfillment Standard, then in the subsequent month Supplier must ship
at least 80% of all Orders scheduled for shipment during that month in
accordance with the terms of this Section 3.0 on or prior to the
scheduled shipment date for such Orders. If Supplier fails to comply
with the foregoing sentence, then in the subsequent month any Order
that is shipped after its scheduled shipment date will be shipped for
next day delivery at Supplier's costs. Supplier's failure to achieve
the Fulfillment Standard during any 4 consecutive measurements will
constitute a material breach of this Agreement, which Supplier has no
further right to cure under Section 17.2, and giving Sprint the
immediate right to terminate.
(C) Supplier will not be responsible for delays caused by the
failure of a carrier designated by Sprint to meet its shipment
schedule.

or (c) giving rise to Sprint's right to terminate this Agreement, and upon the
effective date of the termination of this Agreement (an "Escrow Termination
Event"), Sprint will give written notice to the escrow agent and Supplier,
specifying the event, and the escrow agent will thereupon deliver to Sprint all

Immediately upon the occurrence of a Supplier Insolvency, Supplier
shall promptly give notice to Sprint that the Supplier Insolvency exists. Any
such notice must prominently reference this Agreement and be entitled:
"IMPORTANT COMMUNICATION RE: SUPPLIER INSOLVENCY." If, upon or following such
notice, and while the Supplier Insolvency persists, (i) Supplier commits an act
constituting breach under Section 17.2.1 (a), (b) or (c), and (ii) Sprint gives
notice to Supplier and the escrow agent that such a breach occurred during a
Supplier Insolvency, then, and in spite of any objection from Supplier, (A) the
escrow agent will immediately release the Escrow Technology to Sprint and
Supplier will immediately provide Non-Escrow Technology access to Sprint (the
"Insolvency Release") and (B) Sprint may then exercise its rights under the
license of Section 20.1, but such exercise may continue only for so long as the
Supplier Insolvency persists. However, if the Supplier Insolvency persists for
more than 90 days following the Insolvency Release, then Sprint's right to use
the Escrow Technology and Non-Escrow Technology under the license of Section
20.1 shall become perpetual.
Any dispute regarding the occurrence of the Supplier Insolvency, an
Insolvency Release and/or Splint's right to gain access to the Technology
pursuant to this Section 20.6 shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance
with Schedule 20.3.

Sprint will be Supplier's most favored customer. Accordingly, Supplier's
pricing to Sprint will be equal to or better than that charged to each other
customer of Supplier for the same or comparable Equipment or Services after all
reductions, rebates, volume discounts or adjustments are applied.
(A) In the event that the Net Price charged to any of Supplier's other
customers for any Deliverables is lower than the Net Price previously charged to
Sprint for such Deliverables, Sprint is entitled to receive the benefit of such
lower Net Price with respect to any Deliverables invoiced to Sprint from the
date of which such lower Net Price was invoiced to such Supplier's other
customers. In addition, such lower Net Price will be applied to all subsequent
Orders of such Deliverables by Sprint during the remainder of the term of this
Agreement, subject to future reductions under this Agreement.
(B) All invoices to Sprint for Deliverables to which a lower Net Price
is applicable under this Section 21.0, will be reissued by Supplier within 30
days after it is determined that Sprint is entitled to receive the benefit of a
lower Net Price. The reissued invoice must indicate the difference between the
Net Price originally invoiced to Sprint and the reduced Net Price, together with
all applicable sales or other tax reductions attributable to the price
reduction. The reduction in Net Price made in accordance with this Section 21.0
will be reflected on all future invoices issued by Supplier to Sprint (subject
to future reductions under this Section 21.0).

decreased as a result of compliance with this Section 21.0. The MFC Certificate
will be provided to Sprint within 60 days after the close of each calendar year.
Sprint has the right to have Supplier's compliance with this Section 21.0
verified annually. Such verification shall be performed by an independent,
reputable and nationwide public accounting firm chosen by Sprint and reasonably
acceptable to Supplier. Since the conduct of the audit may expose the accounting
firm to Supplier's Proprietary Information, such accounting firm, prior to
conducting the audit, will enter into a non-disclosure agreement reasonable
acceptable to Supplier. In addition to any other terms reasonably required by
Supplier, such non-disclosure agreement shall provide that the accounting firm
will provide to Sprint only the minimum amount of information necessary for
Sprint to verify Supplier's compliance with this Section 21.0.

or other separately distinguishable manufacturing run of CPE Equipment (each a
"Batch") shipped to Sprint is found to be defective with the same or similar
Defects occurring during the first 5 years after shipment of any part of such
Batch (whether or not occurring all at the same time) (a "Pattern Defect"),
Sprint may notify Supplier of the Pattern Defect. Upon receipt of such
notification, Supplier will have 30 days in which to determine the cause of such
Pattern Defect and 90 days to remedy such Pattern Defect (the "Pattern Defect
Cure Period"). Pursuant to such remediation, Supplier will promptly repair or
replace any and all Equipment that was part of the Batch subject to the Pattern
Defect, whether in Sprint's or any Affiliate's inventory or in Sprint's or any
Affiliate's distribution channels, including Equipment held by end-users.
Supplier will reimburse Sprint for any removal and reinstallation costs

any Affiliate's inventory or distribution channel(s) and that are subject to any
such Pattern Defect(s), provided that if Supplier is diligently pursuing a cure,
Sprint will allow Supplier an additional 30 days to remedy such Pattern Defect
prior to taking such actions. In the event that such Pattern Defect is not
remedied, Supplier agrees to remove, at its cost, and repurchase (at Splint's
and any Affiliate's original cost therefor) from Sprint any Equipment
repurchased or otherwise recalled by Sprint due to Supplier's failure to remedy
any such Pattern Defect. Sprint will not recall any Equipment without reasonable
prior written notification to (but not the consent of) Supplier.
(C) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the
contrary, in the event that, with respect to any Equipment, a recall or similar
demand, request or suggestions is issued by the Consumer Product Safety
Commission or other Governmental Authority, Supplier will immediately remove,
repurchase and recall (at its own cost and expense) any such Equipment whether
then held by Sprint, any Affiliate, or end-user.

IMPLIED, ORAL OR WRITTEN, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR OF NONINFRINGEMENT. WITHOUT

27.0 LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION
27.1 THIRD PARTY CLAIMS.
Each party agrees to defend, pay all third party judgments,
settlements, expenses, and costs (including reasonable attorney fees) and
indemnify, and hold the other party and its Indemnitees harmless from any suit,
claim or proceeding brought against the other party and its Indemnitees by any
third party (excluding affiliates of the indemnified party, but including any
personnel of Sprint or Supplier) for personal injury (including death), or
damage to property, to the extent the loss, destruction, injury or death is
caused by a negligent act or omission or willful misconduct by the indemnifying
party or its Indemnitees, subcontractors or agents. Any infringement of an
intellectual property right shall not be covered under this subsection, but is
covered in subsection 27.4.
27.2 PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS.
Supplier will defend, pay all third party judgments, settlements,
expenses and costs (including reasonable attorney fees) and indemnify and hold
the Sprint Indemnitees harmless against any claim brought against the Sprint
Indemnitees for personal injury (including death) to the extent the claim is
based upon an allegation that any Deliverable is defective or dangerous or any
warning associated with such Deliverable is lacking or inadequate.
27.3 TAXES AND BENEFITS.
Supplier will indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Sprint
Indemnitees from all claims by any employees, subcontractors, or agents utilized
by Supplier for the performance of this Agreement, or any government or
governmental agency, relating to payment of employment taxes and employee
benefits, including without limitation, any penalties and interest which may be
assessed against the Sprint Indemnitees with respect to such taxes and benefits.
Supplier will similarly indemnify and defend the Sprint Indemnitees from all
claims by any person or governmental agency which arise directly or indirectly
from any failure by Supplier to comply with applicable workers' compensation
coverage on Supplier's employees, subcontractors and agents.
27.4 INFRINGEMENT.
(A) Supplier Indemnity. Supplier agrees to defend, indemnify the Sprint
Indemnitees for any damages incurred by the Sprint Indemnitees and hold the
Sprint Indemnitees harmless from all third party claims brought against the
Sprint Indemnitees based on any third party claim that the Deliverables as
shipped by Supplier to Sprint pursuant to this Agreement, or any use or sale or
offer to sell or importation of the Deliverables in a manner intended by
Supplier or permitted sale by the Sprint Indemnitees of such Deliverables,
constitutes an infringement of a U.S. patent, a copyright infringement, or
misappropriates a trade secret.
Supplier will have no liability, however, for any claim of infringement
to the extent caused by: (i) modification of any Deliverable other than
modifications made by or with the approval of Supplier; (ii) the use or sale or
offer to sell or importation of a Deliverable in connection with another product
(including software) or service (the combination of which causes the
infringement) not provided by Supplier unless the use was intended by Supplier;
or (iii) Supplier's compliance with Sprint's specific instructions.
If, as a result of a claim of infringement for which Supplier has an
indemnity obligation, the sale or use of Deliverables is enjoined, or the Sprint
Indemnitees must cease use based on a claim of infringement, Supplier will, at
SPRINT PROPRIETARY INFORMATION - RESTRICTED
19
Supplier's option and expense, either (i) procure for the Sprint Indemnitees the
right to use the applicable Deliverables, (ii) modify the Deliverables so they
become non-infringing within a time frame reasonably acceptable to Sprint, or
(iii) replace the Deliverables with substantially equivalent non-infringing
Deliverables. In the event Supplier, using commercially reasonable efforts, is
unable to do either (i), (ii) or (iii), the Sprint Indemnitees will cease using
the Deliverables and return the same to Supplier. Supplier will then refund to
the Sprint Indemnitees the amount paid by Sprint for such infringing
Deliverables.
(B) Sprint Indemnity. Sprint agrees to indemnify and hold the Supplier
Indemnitees harmless from all third party claims brought against the Supplier
Indemnitees or its permitted assigns based upon any claim that any Deliverable
or Supplier's manufacture, use, sale or offer for sale thereof infringes any
U.S. patent, constitutes a copyright infringement, or misappropriates a trade
secret, if such infringement or alleged infringement would not have occurred or
be alleged to have occurred but for Supplier's compliance with Sprint's
specifications or instructions.
(C) SOLE REMEDY. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 27.4 SET FORTH EACH
PARTY'S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE OBLIGATIONS, AND THE OTHER PARTY'S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE
REMEDIES, WITH RESPECT TO INFRINGEMENT OR MISAPPROPRIATION OF INTELLECTUAL
PROPERTY RIGHTS OF ANY KIND.
27.5 INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURES.
(A) Notice of Claims. Promptly upon becoming aware of any matter which
is subject to the provisions of Sections 27.1, 27.2, 27.3 or 27.4 (a "Claim"),
the party seeking indemnification (the "Indemnified Party") must give written
notice of such Claim to the other party (the "Indemnifying Party"), accompanied
by copies of any written documentation regarding the Claim received by the
Indemnified Party.
(B) Defense of Claims. The Indemnifying Party will retain the right at
its option, to compromise or defend at its own expense and with its own counsel,
any such Claim. The Indemnified Party will have the right, at its option, to
participate in the settlement or defense of any such Claim, with its own counsel
and at its own expense; but the Indemnifying Party will have the right to
control such settlement or defense; provided, however, that the Indemnifying
Party will not enter into any settlement that imposes any liability or
obligation on the Indemnified Party without the Indemnified Party's prior
written consent. The parties agree to cooperate in any such settlement or
defense and to give each other full access to all relevant information, subject
to the execution of appropriate and reasonable confidentiality agreements. In
the event that the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the Indemnified Party of
the Indemnifying Party's intent to take any action within 15 days after receipt
of notice of a Claim or fails to proceed thereafter in good faith with the
prompt resolution of the Claim, the Indemnified Party (without waiving any
rights to indemnification hereunder) may defend such Claim and may enter into
any good faith settlement without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying
Party, and the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party on demand
for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in
defending and settling such Claim. The Indemnified Party will notify the
Indemnifying Party prior to taking any such action.
(C) Conditions. Neither party will have an obligation to indemnify the
other if the Indemnified Party fails to notify the Indemnifying Party of a Claim
promptly and to provide reasonable cooperation, information, assistance, and
sole control for the handling and defense of the Claim, and such failure
materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party.

SCHEDULE 1.21
MASTER TEST PLANS
1.0 INITIAL SYSTEM VERIFICATION
Sprint and the Supplier will perform end-to-end System verification prior to
deployment of any System hereunder on Supplier's System deployed and operating
in Phoenix. Sprint will provide access to its System in Phoenix and each party
will provide resources required to satisfy the initial System verification as
promptly as possible. Initial System verification will test all functional and
performance capabilities of the System against the Specifications and will
include those tests contemplated for Substantial Completion. In the event the
parties are unable to demonstrate that the System in Phoenix is operating in
accordance with its Specifications and has satisfied the Substantial Completion
testing procedures within 45 days from the Effective Date, the Commitment will
be terminated.
2.0 SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION TESTING
The purpose of Substantial Completion Testing is to confirm the operational
capability in accordance with the Specifications of the System in a "real world"
environment. The test plan will clearly identify tests to be run, procedures to
monitor and measure system performance, equipment necessary to undertake tests,
and expected results and roles and responsibilities.
The test will simulate real world environmental conditions to the extent
possible, including, performance under load, reasonable interference, and other
environmental conditions. To accomplish this, Sprint will provision at least
eight customers (or test sites) per sector in each System. All users in MDS-1
sectors shall broadcast on a common RF channel and all users in MDS-2 sectors
shall broadcast on a common RF channel. Test will be performed for various
upstream channel widths. The tests must test for all minimums, maximums and
operational. All test results must be valid and based on objective criteria.
These tests will include, but will not be limited to, the following types of
tests:
A. FIELD INSTALLATION AND INTEGRATION ACCEPTANCE TESTS
- Power Up Procedures
- Transmit tests (Repeated for each CMD and CMD channel)
- Diagnostic Testing
- Alarm Testing (monitor system shall be tested to ensure that cyber
manager alarm message logs are created and passed to network)
- Software Installation (including, but not limited to functionality,
interoperability and performance testing of the software.)
- Initialization
- Call Processing Testing
- Remote Unit Installation and Test
- Routing Tests
- Equipment, including third party equipment and all functional elements
thereof, shall be tested (including RF, Hybrid (and IP infrastructure
elements)
- Interoperability Testing, (including, but not limited to
interoperability to various vendor platforms, routers, etc.)
- Provisioning interface test (ensure correct operation of customer and
network provisioning capabilities)
- Network management interface test (ensure correct operation of the
network management capabilities).
- Cold-start. (To ensure the system is recoverable, in the event of loss
of system power or system maintenance, a cold-start of all components
will be performed. After reactivation, basic regression testing of the

employees in solving such condition or problem. Supplier's technically qualified
person or persons must be on-site as soon as practicable after the mutual
determination that the support provided by Supplier's technical assistance
center is not sufficient to resolve the condition, but in no event more than 24
hours after such determination, or at such later time as may be determined by
Sprint. A CSR will be submitted by Sprint to request a repair of the emergency
condition or the non-emergency problem, or to request the addition of a Software
or Equipment Upgrade or other Software or Equipment Enhancement. Sprint's CSRs
will define the condition or problem and state whether Sprint considers the CSR
to be for a Software/Equipment Upgrade or Software/Equipment Enhancement.
Changes to the System resulting from CSRs must be fully tested and accepted in
accordance with the Specifications. Supplier must respond to the submission of a
CSR by Sprint within five (5) business days, acknowledging receipt of the CSR,
confirming or denying agreement with Sprint's assessment of whether the CSR may
be considered a Software or Equipment Upgrade or a Software or Equipment
Enhancement and summarizing Supplier's intended actions to handle the CSR. A CSR
may result in System fixes, or enhancements, resulting in Equipment
modifications reasonably acceptable to Sprint.
