payments or benefits under this Agreement are subject to Section 409A of the
Code and the delayed payment or distribution of all or any portion of such

(30) day period commencing on the earlier of (a) the expiration of the six
(6)-month period measured from the date of Executive's Separation from Service

Companies expressly to assume and to agree to perform this Agreement in the same
manner and to the same extent that the Companies would be required to perform it

6.Confidentiality and Non-Solicitation Covenants. In consideration of the
provisions of Section 2 of this Agreement, and in order to protect the goodwill
of the Companies, Executive hereby agrees to the following covenants.
a.Confidentiality. During Executive's employment with Cricket and for the period
of three (3) years the Date of Termination, Executive shall not, directly or
indirectly, disclose or make available to any person, firm, corporation,
association or other entity for any reason or purpose whatsoever, any
Confidential Information (as defined below). Executive agrees that, upon
termination of Executive's employment with Cricket, all Confidential Information
in Executive's possession that is in writing or other tangible form (together
with all copies or duplicates thereof, including computer files) shall be
returned to Cricket and shall not be retained by Executive or furnished to any
third party, in any form except as provided herein; provided, however, that
Executive shall not be obligated to treat as confidential, or return to Cricket
copies of any Confidential Information that (i) was publicly known at the time
of disclosure to Executive, (ii) becomes publicly known or available thereafter
other than by any means in violation of this Agreement or any other duty owed to
the Companies or any of their respective affiliates by any person or entity, or
(iii) is lawfully disclosed to Executive by a third party. As used in this
Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” means: information disclosed to
Executive or known by Executive as a consequence of or through Executive's
relationship with Cricket, about the customers, employees, business methods,

lists, of the Companies and their respective affiliates.
b.Non-Solicitation. During Executive's employment with Cricket and for the
period commencing on the Date of Termination and terminating on the third (3rd)
anniversary thereof, Executive shall not, either on Executive's own account or
jointly with or as a manager, agent, officer, employee, consultant, partner,
joint venture, owner or shareholder or otherwise on behalf of any other person,
firm or corporation, directly or indirectly solicit or attempt to solicit away
from the Companies or any of their respective affiliates, any of their officers
or employees or offer employment to any person who, on or during the six (6)
months immediately preceding the date of such solicitation or offer, is or was
an officer or employee of the Companies or any of their respective affiliates;
provided, however, that a general advertisement to which an employee of the
Companies or any of their respective affiliates, responds shall in no event be
deemed to result in a breach of this Section 6(b).
c.Breach of Covenants. In the event that Executive breaches any of the
provisions of this Section 6, or threatens to do so, in addition to and without
limiting or waiving any other remedies available to the Companies in law or in
equity, the Companies shall be entitled to immediate injunctive relief in any
court having the capacity to grant such relief, to restrain such breach or
threatened breach and to enforce this Section 6. Executive acknowledges that it
is impossible to measure in money the damages that the Companies will sustain in
the event that Executive breaches or threatens to breach this Section 6 and, in
the event that the Companies institute any action or proceeding to enforce this
Section 6 seeking injunctive relief, Executive hereby waives and agrees not to
assert or use as a defense a claim or defense that the Companies have an
adequate remedy at law. Also, in addition to any other remedies available to the
Companies in law or in equity, in the event that Executive breaches the
provisions of this Section 6 in any material respect, Executive shall forfeit
Executive's right to further benefits under Section 2 and Executive shall be
obligated to repay to Cricket the benefits that Executive has received under
Section 2. If a court or arbitrator shall hold that the duration, scope or area
restriction or other provision of this Section 6 is unreasonable under

6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the circumstances now or then existing, the Parties hereto agree that the
maximum duration, scope or area restriction reasonable under the circumstances
shall be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area restriction.
7.Miscellaneous. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or
discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing
and signed by Executive and such officer of Cricket and Leap as may be
specifically designated thereby. No waiver by any Party hereto at any time of
any breach by any other Party hereto of or compliance with, any condition or
provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other Party shall be deemed
a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any
prior or subsequent time. No agreements or representations, oral or otherwise,
express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by
any Party which are not expressly set forth in this Agreement. Executive
acknowledges that Executive has consulted with counsel (or has had a reasonable
opportunity to consult with counsel) and is fully aware of Executive's rights
and obligations under this Agreement. The validity, interpretation, construction
and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of
California without regard to its conflicts of law principles. All references to
sections of any federal, state or local law shall be deemed also to refer to any
successor provisions to such sections. Any payments provided for hereunder shall
be paid net of any applicable withholding required under federal, state or local
law. The Section headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience only,
and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement. This Agreement
supersedes the Prior Agreement in its entirety, effective as of the date hereof,
and the Prior Agreement shall have no further force and effect.
8.Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this
Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision
of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.
9.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall
constitute one and the same instrument.
10.Venue. Except as set forth in Section 11, the parties expressly agree that
the only proper venue for any action, lawsuit or administrative proceeding to
interpret or enforce this Agreement, relating to this Agreement and/or arising
out of a breach of this Agreement shall be in the City and County of San Diego,
California and the parties, on behalf of themselves and their officers,
directors, principals, managing agents, insurers, attorneys and personal
representatives irrevocably submit to the personal jurisdiction of such state or
federal court or forum in respect of any such action, lawsuit or proceeding for
purposes of service of process, discovery proceedings and trial. The parties
waive any objection that they may now have or hereafter have to venue in a court
or forum in the City and County of San Diego.
11.Agreement to Arbitrate. Except as set forth in Section 6(c), any dispute,
claim or controversy based on, arising out of or relating to Executive's
employment or this Agreement shall be settled by final and binding arbitration
in San Diego County, California, before a single neutral arbitrator in
accordance with the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes
(the “Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), and judgment on
the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction. Arbitration may be compelled pursuant to the California
Arbitration Act (Code of Civil Procedure §§ 1280 et seq.). If the parties are
unable to agree upon an arbitrator, one shall be appointed by the AAA in
accordance with its Rules. Each party shall pay the fees of its own attorneys,
the expenses of its witnesses and all other expenses connected with presenting
its case; provided that Cricket shall pay to Executive all reasonable
arbitration expenses and legal fees incurred by Executive if Executive prevails
in enforcing or obtaining his or her rights or benefits provided by this
Agreement. Such payments shall be made within five (5) days after Executive's
request for payment accompanied with evidence of fees and expenses incurred as
Cricket may reasonably request. Other costs of the arbitration, including the
cost of

7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

any record or transcripts of the arbitration, AAA's administrative fees, the fee
of the arbitrator, and all other fees and costs, shall be borne by the
Companies. Except as set forth in Section 6(c), this Section 11 is intended to
be the exclusive method for resolving any and all claims by the parties against
each other for payment of damages under this Agreement or relating to
Executive's employment; provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor the
submission to arbitration shall limit the parties' right to seek provisional
relief, including without limitation injunctive relief, in any court of
competent jurisdiction pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure § 1281.8
or any similar statute of an applicable jurisdiction. Seeking any such relief
shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such party's right to compel arbitration.
Both Executive and the Companies expressly waive their right to a jury trial.
12.At-Will Employment. Nothing in the foregoing diminishes or alters Cricket's
policy of at-will employment for all employees, where both Cricket and Executive
may terminate the employment relationship at any time and for any reason, with
or without cause or notice.
13.Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement of the
Parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein and supersedes
all prior agreements, promises, covenants, arrangements, communications,
representations or warranties, whether oral or written, by any officer, employee
or representative of any party hereto.
