EXHIBIT 10.2

                                    AGREEMENT


         THIS AGREEMENT dated as of ________ __, 2002 is made by and between
Motient Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and _____________
(the "Executive").

         WHEREAS, the Company has maintained Change of Control separation
agreements with certain executives in order to reinforce and encourage the
continued attention and dedication of members of the Company's management,
including the Executive, to their assigned duties without distraction in the
face of potentially disturbing circumstances arising from the possibility of a
Change in Control; and

         WHEREAS, the Company has undertaken an Amended Joint Plan of
Reorganization, dated February 27, 2002, approved by the United States
Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Virginia (the "Reorganization
Plan"), and pursuant to which the court and the Company recognize that it is
essential to the Company's best interests and to the best interests of its
stockholders to foster the continuous employment of certain key management
personnel; and

         WHEREAS, the Reorganization Plan has authorized the Company to enter
into new Change of Control separation agreements with the ten (10) of the senior
officers in the form of this Agreement, and the Executive and the Company have
agreed that this Agreement shall supersede and entirely replace any prior
agreement between the Company and the Executive regarding a Change in Control
(the "Prior Agreement").

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
covenants herein contained, the Company and the Executive hereby agree as
follows:

         1. Waiver; Defined Terms. The Executive hereby waives any rights,
including any right to payment, under the Prior Agreement, and agrees that this
Agreement supersedes and replaces the Prior Agreement in its entirety. For
purposes of this Agreement, definitions of certain capitalized terms used in
this Agreement are provided in Section 9 and elsewhere in this Agreement.

         2. Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective on the date
hereof and shall remain in effect indefinitely thereafter; provided, however,
that (a) except as provided in clause (b) of this Section 2, either the Company
or the Executive may terminate this Agreement by giving the other party at least
two (2) years advance written notice of such termination, and (b) if a Potential
Change in Control or a Change in Control shall have occurred during the term of
this Agreement, this Agreement may not be terminated until all obligations of
either party hereto have been performed in full, the Coverage Period has expired
without the occurrence of a Triggering Event, or in the case of a Potential
Change in Control, no Change in Control occurs for at least two years following
such Potential Change in Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement
shall terminate upon the Executive's attaining age sixty-five (65), the
Executive's Disability or death, except as to obligations of the Company
hereunder arising from a Change in Control and a Triggering Event that occurred
prior to his having reached such age or prior to the occurrence of his
Disability or death.

         3. Agreement of the Company. In order to induce the Executive to remain
in the employ of the Company, the Company agrees, under the terms and conditions
set forth herein, that, upon the occurrence of both a Change in Control and a
Triggering Event during the term of this Agreement, the Company shall provide to
the Executive the benefits described in Sections 3.1 through 3.3 below (the
"Severance Benefits"), unless prior to the date of any Triggering Event, the
Executive's employment with the Company has been terminated for Cause or due to
the Executive's Disability or death.

                  3.1 Lump-Sum Severance Payment. In lieu of any further salary
payments to the Executive for periods subsequent to the Date of Termination, the
Company shall pay to the Executive a lump sum severance payment, in cash,
without discount, equal to the Executive's Annual Base Salary.

                  3.2 Vesting of Options. The vesting of all options to purchase
securities of the Company granted to the Executive pursuant to the Company's
2002 Stock Incentive Plan or any other Company plan that are then held by the
Executive shall be accelerated to the Date of Termination, and shall continue to
be exercisable for a two-year period after such acceleration; any provision
contained in the agreement(s) under which such options were granted that is
inconsistent with such acceleration is hereby modified to the extent necessary
to provide for such acceleration; such acceleration shall not apply to any
option that by its terms would vest prior to the date provided for in this
Section 3.2.

                  3.3 Continued Benefits. For a twelve (12) month period (or, if
less, the number of months from the Date of Termination until the date the
Executive will reach age sixty-five (65)) after the Date of Termination (the
"Benefits Period"), the Company shall provide the Executive with group term life
insurance, health insurance, accident and long-term disability insurance
benefits (collectively, "Welfare Benefits") substantially similar in all
respects to those that the Executive was receiving immediately prior to the Date
of Termination (without giving effect to any reduction in such benefits
subsequent to a Potential Change in Control or a Change in Control). During the
Benefits Period, the Executive shall be entitled to elect to change his level of
coverage and/or his choice of coverage options (such as Executive only or family
medical coverage) with respect to the Welfare Benefits to be provided by the
Company to the Executive to the same extent that actively employed senior
executives of the Company are permitted to make such changes; provided, however,
that in the event of any such changes the Executive shall pay the amount of any
cost increase that would actually be paid by an actively employed senior
executive of the Company by reason of making the same changes in his level of
coverage or coverage options.

                  3.4 Terminations in Anticipation of Change in Control. The
Executive shall be entitled to the Severance Benefits under Section 3 hereof if
the Executive's employment is terminated by the Company without Cause prior to a
Change in Control and such termination of employment (a) was at the request of a
third party which has taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a Change in
Control or (b) otherwise arose in anticipation of a Change in Control. The
Executive shall be entitled to the Severance Benefits under Section 3 hereof if
the Executive terminates his employment prior to a Change in Control if at the
time of such termination a circumstance or event which would constitute Good
Reason after a Change in Control has occurred (a) at the request of a third
party who has taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a Change in Control or
(b) in anticipation of a Change in Control.

         4. Certain Limitations on Payments and Benefits. The Severance Benefits
payable under Section 3.1 hereof shall be reduced by the amount of any other
payment or the value of any benefit received or to be received by the Executive
that, in the opinion of tax counsel ("Tax Counsel") selected by the Executive
and acceptable to the Company's independent auditors, is likely to constitute a
"parachute payment" under section 280G(b)(2) of the Code (whether pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, agreement or arrangement with the
Company or any subsidiary, any person whose actions result in a Change in
Control, or any person affiliated with the Company or such person) unless (A)
the Executive shall have effectively waived his receipt or enjoyment of such
payment or benefit prior to the date of payment of such Severance Benefits, (B)
or in the opinion of Tax Counsel, the Severance Benefits (in their full amount
or as partially reduced under this Section 4, as the case may be) plus all other
payments or benefits that constitute "parachute payments" within the meaning of
section 280(b)(2) of the Code are likely to be reasonable compensation for
services actually rendered, within the meaning of section 280G(b)(4) of the Code
or are otherwise not likely to be subject to disallowance as a deduction by
reason of section 280G of the Code. The value of any noncash benefit or any
deferred payment or benefit shall be determined by the Company's independent
auditors in accordance with the principles of section 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the
Code.

         5. Timing of Payments. The payment provided for in Section 3.1 hereof
shall be made on the Date of Termination, provided, however, that if the amounts
of such payment cannot be finally determined on or before such day, the Company
shall pay to the Executive on such day an estimate, as determined in good faith
by the Company, of the minimum amount of such payment and shall pay the
remainder of such payment (together with interest at the rate provided in
Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code from the Date of Termination to the payment of
such remainder) as soon as the amount thereof can be determined but in no event
later than the thirtieth (30th) day after the Date of Termination. In the event
that the amount of the estimated payment exceeds the amount subsequently
determined to have been due, such excess shall constitute a loan by the Company
to the Executive, payable on the fifth (5th) business day after demand by the
Company (together with interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of
the Code from the Date of Termination to the repayment of such excess).

         6. Reimbursement of Legal Costs. The Company shall pay to the Executive
all reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by the Executive as a result of
a termination that entitles the Executive to any payments under this Agreement
including all such fees and expenses, if any, incurred in contesting or
disputing any Notice of Termination under Section 7.2 hereof or in seeking to
obtain or enforce any right or benefit provided by this Agreement or in
connection with any tax audit or proceeding to the extent attributable to the
application of Section 4999 of the Code to any payment or benefit provided
hereunder. Such payments shall be made within five (5) business days after
delivery of the Executive's respective written requests for payment accompanied
with such evidence of fees and expenses incurred as the Company reasonably may
require.

         7.  Termination Procedures.
             ----------------------

                  7.1 Notice of Termination. After a Potential Change in Control
or a Change in Control, any termination of the Executive's employment (other
than by reason of death) must be preceded by a written Notice of Termination
from the terminating party to the other party hereto in accordance with Section
8.5 hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" shall mean
a notice which shall (i) specify the date of termination (the "Date of
Termination") which shall not be more than sixty (60) days from the date such
Notice of Termination is given, (ii) indicate the notifying party's opinion
regarding the specific provisions of this Agreement that will apply upon such
termination and (iii) set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances
claimed to provide a basis for the application of the provisions indicated.
Termination of the Executive's employment shall occur on the specified Date of
Termination even if there is a dispute between the parties pursuant to Section
7.2 hereof relating to the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such
termination.

                  7.2 Dispute Concerning Applicable Termination Provisions. If
within thirty (30) days of receiving the Notice of Termination the party
receiving such notice notifies the other party that a dispute exists concerning
the provisions of this Agreement that apply to such termination, the dispute
shall be resolved either by mutual written agreement of the parties or by
expedited commercial arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration
Association, pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 8.14 herein. The
parties shall pursue the resolution of such dispute with reasonable diligence.
Within five (5) days of such a resolution, any party owing any payments pursuant
to the provisions of this Agreement shall make all such payments together with
interest accrued thereon at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the
Code.

         8.  Miscellaneous.
             -------------

                  8.1 No Mitigation. The Company agrees that, if the Executive's
employment by the Company is terminated in a manner that results in the payment
of Severance Benefits hereunder, the Executive shall not be required to seek
other employment or to attempt in any way to reduce any amounts payable to the
Executive by the Company pursuant to this Agreement. Further, the amount of any
payment or benefit provided for under this Agreement shall not be reduced by any
compensation earned by the Executive as the result of employment by another
employer, by retirement benefits, by offset against any amount claimed to be
owed by the Executive to the Company, or otherwise.

                  8.2 Successors. In addition to any obligations imposed by law
upon any successor to the Company, the Company shall be obligated to require any
successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation,
operation of law, or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business
and/or assets of the Company to expressly assume and agree to perform this
Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be
required to perform it if no such succession had taken place; in the event of
such a succession, references to the "Company" herein shall thereafter be deemed
to include such successor. Failure of the Company to obtain such assumption and
agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession shall be a breach of
this Agreement and shall entitle the Executive to terminate his employment and
thereafter to receive Severance Benefits, except that, for purposes of
implementing the foregoing, the date on which any such succession becomes
effective shall be deemed the Date of Termination.

                  8.3 Incompetency. Any benefit payable to or for the benefit of
the Executive, if legally incompetent, or incapable of giving a receipt
therefor, shall be deemed paid when paid to the Executive's guardian or to the
party providing or reasonably appearing to provide for the care of such person,
and such payment shall fully discharge the Company.

                  8.4 Death. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
enforceable by the Executive's personal or legal representatives, executors,
administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If the
Executive shall die while any amount would still be payable to the Executive
hereunder (other than amounts which, by their terms, terminate upon the death of
the Executive) if the Executive had continued to live, all such amounts, unless
otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement to the executors, personal representatives or administrators of the
Executive's estate.

                  8.5 Notices. For the purpose of this Agreement, notices and
all other communications provided for in the Agreement shall be in writing and
shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered or mailed by United
States registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to
the respective addresses set forth below, or to such other address as either
party may have furnished to the other in writing in accordance herewith, except
that notice of change of address shall be effective only upon actual receipt:

specifically designated by the Board or its delegee. No waiver by either party
hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance

party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions
at the same or at any prior or subsequent time.

or otherwise, express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof have

discharge the Executive at any time and for any lawful reason, subject in all
cases to the terms of this Agreement.

                  8.13 No Assignment of Benefits. Except as otherwise provided
herein or by law, no right or interest of any Executive under the Agreement

performed the Executive's duties;

                         (b) the willful  engaging by the Executive in illegal

(taken as a whole);

                         (d) during any period of twenty-four  consecutive
months (commencing on or after the date hereof), individuals who at the

new director whose election or nomination for election by the Company's
shareholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the
