2.           COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS

2.1           Salary

The Executive will earn an annual salary of $245,000.00 USD (the “Base Salary”).  The Base Salary will be paid periodically in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices and will be subject to the usual, applicable statutory and contractual withholdings.  The Executive’s salary will be subject to review and adjustments made based upon the Company’s normal performance review practices.

2.2           Probationary Period

For the first three months, the Executive’s employment will be probationary (the “Probationary Period”).  During the Probation Period, the Executive’s employment may be terminated at any time with or without cause and without advance warning, notice, pay in lieu, severance or any other compensation whatsoever.

2.3           Short Term Incentive

The Executive shall be eligible to participate in any incentive program that is applicable to executives of the Company, including the Company’s Short-Term Incentive Plan (“STI Plan”).  The Company may make changes to its incentive programs, including the STI Plan, without notice in accordance with its business needs, and any changes will not constitute a breach of the terms of employment. The target annual incentive payment for the Executive under the current STI Plan is fifty percent (50%) of Base Salary for the year. This payment is based on the achievement of both sales and individual objectives. The percentage performance target for the achievement of sales objectives is seventy five percent (75%), and the percentage performance target for the achievement of individual objectives is twenty five percent (25%).

In 2012, however the total STI bonus will be prorated to represent only the percentage of time left in 2012 between the Executive’s Start Date and the end of the calendar year. In addition, in 2012, only, the percentage performance target for the achievement of sales objectives will be 50% and the percentage performance target for the achievement of individual objectives will also be 50%. Individual objectives will be mutually agreed upon by Executive and CEO by August 31, 2012.

Further, in 2012, only, Executive will be paid his percentage performance for the achievement of sales objectives based on the following:

	
  

	
-

	
0% of executive’s target sales objective bonus incentive if the Company’s 2012 sales do not reach $12.3M.

	
  

	
-

	
100% of Executive’s sales objective target bonus incentive if the Company’s 2012 sales equal or exceed $13.1M, or

	
  

	
-

	
A percentage of Executive’s sales objective target bonus for the achievement of sales exceeding $12.3M divided by the difference between the Company’s 2012 sales goal ($13.1M) and $12.3M (for example, an achievement of 2012 sales of $12.6M would pay Executive 37.5% ($0.3M/$0.8M) of his sales achievement allocation (50%) of his prorated 50% total year STI).

2.4           Stock Options

It will be recommended at the first meeting of the Board, following the Start Date and after successful completion of the Probationary Period, that the Company grant the Executive an option to purchase eight hundred thousand (800,000) shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price per share equal to the fair market value per share on the date of the grant (the “Option”).  The Option will be subject to applicable regulatory and shareholder approval and if such approval is not granted the Executive will not be entitled to the Option or any other compensation.  The Option will be scheduled to vest as to 25% of the shares subject to the Option one year after the Start Date, and as to 1/48th of the shares subject to the Option monthly thereafter on the same day of the month as the Start Date (and if there is no corresponding day, the last day of the month), so that the Option will be fully vested and exercisable four (4) years from the Start Date, subject to the Executive continuing to be a Service Provider (as defined in the Option Plan) through the relevant vesting dates.  The Option will be subject to the terms, definitions and provisions of the Company's 2008 Stock Option Plan (the “Option Plan”) and the stock option agreement by and between the Executive and the Company (the “Option Agreement”), both of which documents are incorporated herein by reference.

As the value of any grant of stock options will be based on market value and other factors, the Company makes no representation or guarantee that any grant of stock options (including the Option) will attain or result in any particular value or compensation to the Executive and the Company is not liable to the Executive for any loss or failure to gain from the grant, retention or exercise of any stock options (including the Option).

2.5           Group Life and Health Benefits

During the term of this Agreement and effective the “Start Date”, the Company will make available to the Executive the insured life and health benefit plans comparable to those provided to other executives of the Company (the “Benefits”).  The terms and conditions of the Benefits (including eligibility) will be determined by the plans or policies from time to time established or purchased by the Company.  Where any benefit is provided through an insured plan, the liability of the Company will be limited to paying its share of the applicable premium.  The Company may cancel or make changes to the Benefits without notice in accordance with its business needs, and any cancellation or changes will not constitute a breach of the terms of employment.

2.6           Vacation

The Executive shall be eligible to earn up to twenty days of paid vacation per year, in accordance with the Company’s vacation policy, with the timing and duration of specific vacations to be mutually and reasonably agreed to by the parties.

3.3           Termination Without Cause

3.4           Garden Leave

 

Once notice of resignation or termination has been given by the Executive or the Company, the Company may excuse the Executive from the performance of the Executive’s duties and/or exclude the Executive from any premises of the Company or any affiliated company.

3.6           Authorization to Deduct Debts

 

If, on the date of notice of termination or upon termination of the Executive’s employment, the Executive owes the Company any money, the Executive hereby authorizes the Company to deduct any such debt from the final salary payment or any other payment due to the Executive.  Any remaining debt will be immediately payable to the Company and the Executive agrees to satisfy such debt within 14 days of any demand for repayment.

 

3.7           Directorship and Offices

Upon the termination of employment with the Company for any reason, the Executive will immediately resign any directorship or office held in the Company or any parent, subsidiary or affiliated companies of the Company and, except as provided in this Agreement, the Executive will not be entitled to receive any written notice of termination or payment in lieu of notice, or to receive any severance pay, damages or compensation for loss of any directorship, office or otherwise.  The Executive agrees that failure to tender such resignation(s) will amount to cause, for which the Company may treat the employment as being terminated for after-acquired cause.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the termination of employment will not automatically disqualify the Executive from serving a directorship.

3.8           Section 409A

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no severance pay or benefits to be paid or provided to the Executive, if any, pursuant to this Agreement that, when considered together with any other severance payments or separation benefits, are considered deferred compensation under Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, and the final regulations and any guidance promulgated thereunder or any state law equivalent (“Section 409A”) (together, the “Deferred Payments”) will be paid or otherwise provided until the Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.  Similarly, no severance payable to the Executive, if any, pursuant to this Agreement that otherwise would be exempt from Section 409A pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9) will be payable until the Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.

Any severance payments or benefits under this Agreement that would be considered Deferred Payments will be paid on, or, in the case of installment, will not commence until, the 60th day following the Executive’s separation from service, or, if later, such time as required by the next paragraph.  Except as required by the next paragraph, any installment payments that would have been made to the Executive during the 60-day period immediately following the Executive’s separation from service but for the preceding sentence will be paid to the Executive on the 60th day following the Executive’s separation from service and the remaining payments shall be made as provided in this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of his termination (other than due to death), then the Deferred Payments, if any, that are payable within the first six (6) months following the Executive’s separation from service, will become payable on the first payroll date that occurs on or after the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of his separation from service.  All subsequent Deferred Payments, if any, will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Executive dies following his separation from service, but prior to the 6-month anniversary of the separation from service, then any payments delayed in accordance with this paragraph will be payable in a lump sum as soon as administratively practicable after the date of the Executive’s death and all other Deferred Payments will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit.  Each payment, instalment and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations.

  

7

  

 

Any amount paid under this Agreement that qualifies as a payment made as a result of an involuntary separation from service pursuant to Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations that does not exceed the Section 409A Limit will not constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of clause (i) above.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Section 409A Limit” will mean two (2) times the lesser of: (i) the Executive’s annualized compensation based upon the annual rate of pay paid to the Executive during his taxable year preceding the taxable year of his separation from service as determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii)(A)(1) and any Internal Revenue Service guidance issued with respect thereto; or (ii) the maximum amount that may be taken into account under a qualified plan pursuant to Section 401(a)(17) of the Internal Revenue Code for the year in which the Executive’s separation from service occurred.

The foregoing provisions are intended to be exempt from or comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the severance payments and benefits to be provided hereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities or ambiguous terms herein will be interpreted to be exempt or so comply.  The Company and the Executive agree to work together in good faith to consider amendments to this Agreement and to take such reasonable actions which are necessary, appropriate or desirable to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition prior to actual payment to the Executive under Section 409A.

3.9           Benefits

The Benefits will cease on the date of termination of the employment relationship between the Parties, and the Company will have no obligation to extend the Benefits.  In the event the Executive is terminated pursuant to Section 3.1 of the Agreement, the Company will continue medical and dental coverage during the Notice Period provided such benefits can be continued pursuant to the terms of the applicable plan.

4.           CONFIDENTIALITY AND WORK PRODUCT OWNERHSIP AGREEMENT

	Section 8.1.4 (Sprint Device Access to Clearwire Network) is deleted in its entirety.

		
	11.
	A new Section 8.10 (LTE Obligations) is added to the 4G MVNO Agreement immediately following Section 8.9, as follows:

		
	8.10
	LTE Obligations 

(a)Sprint and Clearwire will collaborate on the LTE network design, operations, devices and economics in an effort to meet mutually agreed upon requirements based upon a TDD-LTE standard.  This will include collaboration on site selection and timing of site builds in developing a network build plan. The resulting network build plan will include mutually agreed upon locations for LTE macro-cell sites that cover designated Sprint high usage area “hotspots” (the “Hotspot Sites”).  With respect to RAN and core network equipment that is deployed as part of Clearwire's TDD-LTE network, Clearwire will include in its vendor agreements a process whereby the vendors, upon request, must meet the requirements for a “trusted delivery” model and other security requirements listed in Schedule 8.10(a) (“Trusted Delivery Process”). Upon Sprint's commercially reasonable request, Clearwire will implement the Trusted Delivery Process with respect to vendors identified by Sprint, it being agreed that if Sprint requests with respect to a vendor with which it has implemented the same or similar process such request will be deemed commercially reasonable. Clearwire will not be required to implement the Trusted Delivery Process for vendors that do not provide RAN or core network equipment to Clearwire, or who do provide RAN or core network equipment but such equipment is not deployed in Clearwire's TDD-LTE network.  Clearwire will provide Sprint with a quarterly report listing each vendor providing RAN and core network equipment for Clearwire's TDD-LTE network effective as of the date of each such report.  Upon Sprint's commercially reasonable request Clearwire will provide an Officer's certification that the quarterly report is accurate as of the date generated.  Sprint and Clearwire will collaborate on LTE design options that would allow for seamless hand-offs and service layer control that meet Sprint's customer experience requirements.

(b)[*****].

(c)The initial LTE release will be LTE Release 9 compliant and Clearwire will make commercially reasonable efforts to remain compliant with future LTE releases, including Release 10, to provide service parity with Sprint's LTE network design and operations, as well as a competitive LTE service offering for North America.  Clearwire will make reasonable efforts to stay current with their suppliers and with the US LTE industry on LTE releases.  Sprint is intending to offer advanced services across this LTE network, such as Push to talk, VoLTE, eCSFB, video, or other latency sensitive applications.     If any of the current Sprint Network Vision vendors are used, Clearwire should request from the supplier the same features sets,  acceptance criteria, and SLAs   as those required by Sprint consistent with Network Vision.  If other vendors are used, Schedule 8.10(c) includes the minimum LTE features that Clearwire's vendors will need to support and release at timeframes no later than 6 months after the features become available in the US LTE market.

(b)In connection with any proposed Sale of License, if a Service Assumption Agreement is not entered into by the proposed purchaser and the SIG Parties, then, prior to entering into a definitive agreement with respect to such Sale of License, Clearwire shall provide a written notice, attaching a summary of all of the material terms and conditions of the proposed Sale of License (“Sale Proposal”), to the SIG Parties then party to this Agreement offering such Persons the collective right to purchase the Disposed License(s) that are the subject of such Sale of License on the terms and conditions set forth in the Sale Proposal.  Such SIG Parties (or a subset thereof) may within 30 days of receipt of such notice notify Clearwire in writing that they have elected to purchase such Disposed License(s) and, unless Clearwire and such SIG Parties otherwise mutually agree, purchase such Disposed License(s) on the terms and conditions set forth in the Sale Proposal; provided that to the extent that such SIG Parties are incapable of complying with the terms of the Sale Proposal, Clearwire shall, upon the request of such SIG Parties, agree to substantially similar terms and conditions with such SIG Parties.  If such SIG Parties (or a subset thereof) elect to purchase such Disposed License(s), Clearwire and such SIG Parties (or a subset thereof) shall as promptly as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than 90 days, after the receipt by Clearwire of such election notice enter into a definitive agreement on the terms described above and, thereafter, consummate such purchase within 12 months from the date Clearwire received such election notice.  If (i) the SIG Parties (or any subset thereof) do not timely elect to purchase such Disposed License(s) within the 30-day period described above, (ii) the SIG Parties (or any subset thereof) do timely make such election, but no binding agreement is entered into within the 90-day period described above (except to the extent the delay in entering such binding agreement is due to the acts or omissions of Clearwire or any of its Controlled Affiliates), or (iii) a binding agreement is entered into within such 90-day period, but the purchase of the Disposed License(s) is not consummated within the 12-month period described above (except to the extent the delay in such consummation is due to the acts or omissions of Clearwire or any of its Controlled Affiliates), then Clearwire shall have a 12 month-period commencing on the earliest of occur of the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) during which it may consummate a Sale of License of such Disposed License(s) to such proposed purchaser on terms and conditions (including price) which are the same or more favorable to Clearwire than the terms and conditions proposed by Clearwire in the notice referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph (b).  The Parties agree that each SIG Party's rights pursuant to this Section 13.3(b) shall be assignable at any time by such SIG Party to any of its Controlled Affiliates.

(c)In no event shall Clearwire enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a Sale of License (i) with any purchaser as to which a Services Assumption Agreement is not entered into if such purchaser were to assume, in connection with such Sale of License, Clearwire's obligations to provide Wireless Broadband Services to any Other Reseller or (ii) with Sprint or any of its Controlled Affiliates unless a Services Assumption Agreement is entered into.

(d)If at any time during the Term (including any Phase-Out Period) (i) any BRS or EBS license held by Clearwire or any of its Controlled Affiliates is cancelled, terminated, rescinded, annulled, revoked, suspended or otherwise limited, and as a result thereof Clearwire is no longer lawfully permitted to provide the Wireless Broadband Services in any Market (or portion thereof) or (ii) a Sale of License is consummated, then, in connection with any such event, (A) each SIG Party then a party to this Agreement will be entitled to the same rights, and subject to the same obligations, available to Clearwire or any Other Reseller with respect to the applicable Market or portion thereof (including any roaming rights granted to Clearwire, any Founding Partner or any Other Reseller in connection with such Sale of a License) and (B) the restrictions and limitation set forth in Section 14.2 shall terminate in full solely with respect to those End Users of each SIG Party whose account addresses are located within the Market or portion thereof to which such event relates.

(e)    If Clearwire and its Controlled Affiliates intend to enter into an agreement for, or otherwise consummate, a sale, transfer, license, lease or other disposition of any Excess Capacity, Clearwire's end users, or other assets (e.g., hardware used in the radio access network, AAA or core components) necessary to provide the Wireless Broadband Services pursuant to (i) a formal process (e.g. an auction or similar process involving 2 or more parties), then Clearwire agrees that Sprint will be allowed to participate in any such formal process, and any resulting offer from Sprint for Excess Capacity, Clearwire's end users, or other assets (e.g., hardware used in the radio access network, AAA or core components) necessary to provide the Wireless Broadband Services will be evaluated and either approved or denied in good faith by Clearwire, or (ii) an informal process or single party negotiation. then Clearwire agrees that prior to consummating the sale, transfer, license, lease or other disposition of the Excess Capacity, Clearwire will provide to Sprint written notice  at least 15 Business Days prior to consummating the sale, transfer, license,

2.2.1    In addition to the Wireless Broadband Services Prepayment described in Section 2.1, and not in lieu thereof, Sprint agrees to a take-or-pay commitment as further described in this Section 2.2 of Schedule 7.1.

**see Section 2.2.2 below for details on payment amount and true up
.
2.2.3.    [*****].  
2.2.4.    2011 Monthly True Ups.  Immediately following the end of each calendar month in calendar year 2011, Clearwire will calculate the total price for all Wireless Broadband Services used by Sprint (including Permitted Wholesalers) during the just ended calendar month under this Agreement, including all 2011 TOP Eligible Usage (for each applicable calendar month, the “Monthly 2011 Total Services Price”) and the total price for the 2011 TOP Exclusions used by Sprint (including Permitted Wholesalers) during the just ended calendar month under this Agreement (for each applicable calendar month, the “Monthly 2011 TOP Exclusions Price”).  Clearwire will then subtract the applicable Monthly 2011 TOP Exclusions Price from the applicable Monthly 2011 Total Services Price, the difference for such calendar month is the “Monthly 2011 TOP Eligible Price”).  
(a)    If the applicable Monthly 2011 TOP Eligible Price is greater than the most recent 2011 TOP Installment Amount paid by Sprint (for each applicable calendar month, the “Monthly 2011 TOP Services Overage”), then Clearwire will first credit any such Monthly 2011 TOP Services Overage against any existing 2011 TOP Eligible Balance (as defined in 2.2.4(b) below) and if such Monthly 2011 TOP Services Overage exceeds any existing 2011 TOP Eligible Balance, then Clearwire will invoice Sprint for the amount of the Monthly 2011 TOP Services Overage that exceeds any existing 2011 TOP Eligible Balance.  In addition, Clearwire will credit the applicable Monthly 2011 TOP Exclusions Price to the then current balance of the Wireless Broadband Services Prepayment, unless and until exhausted.  If the then current balance of the Wireless Broadband Services Prepayment is exhausted, or becomes exhausted as a result of applying the applicable Monthly 2011 TOP Exclusions Price, then Clearwire will invoice Sprint for the amount of the Monthly 2011 TOP Exclusions Price that is not credited to the Wireless Broadband Services Prepayment (due to its exhaustion).  Any such invoiced amounts for the Monthly 2011 TOP Services Overage and/or the Monthly 2011 TOP Exclusions Price for the applicable calendar month is the “2011 Monthly True Up”. Any amounts paid by Sprint in such 2011 Monthly True Up for Monthly 2011 TOP Exclusions Price usage (if any), will be handled like a 2011 Monthly TOP Exclusions True Up as provided in the last sentence of 2.2.4(b) below.  The following will occur for all amounts paid by Sprint in such 2011 Monthly True Up for Monthly 2011 TOP Eligible Price usage (any such paid amounts for the applicable calendar month, the “2011 Monthly TOP Eligible True Up”): 
(i)     for the true up for each calendar month during the second calendar quarter of 2011 (4/1/11 through 6/30/11) the July 31, 2011 TOP Installment Amount (as may be reduced as provided in this paragraph) will be reduced by the applicable 2011 Monthly TOP Eligible True Up, and if the 2011 Monthly TOP Eligible True Up exceeds the July 31, 2011 TOP Installment Amount then it would reduce the July 31, 2011 TOP Installment Amount to Zero Dollars ($0.00), and reduce the October 31, 2011 TOP Installment Amount (as may be reduced as provided in this paragraph) by the excess.  If such 2011 Monthly TOP Eligible True Up exceeds both the July 31, 2011 TOP Installment Amount and the October 31, 2011 TOP Installment Amount then both the July 31, 2011 TOP Installment Amount and the October 31, 2011 TOP Installment Amount will be reduced to Zero Dollars ($0.00) and Sprint will have no further obligation to pay the 2011 Take-or-Pay, and the Prepayment Installment Amounts (as may be reduced as provided in this paragraph) will be reduced by such 2011 Monthly TOP Eligible True Up that exceeds the July 31, 2011 TOP Installment Amount and the October 31, 2011 TOP Installment Amount, beginning with the July 31, 2011 Prepayment Installment Amount, and continuing to each subsequent 2011 Prepayment Installment Amount and then to each subsequent 2012 Prepayment Installment Amount until the full amount of such 2011 Monthly TOP Eligible True Up that exceeds the July 31, 2011 TOP Installment Amount and the October 31, 2011 TOP Installment Amount has been applied to reduce the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts, and if such 

Confidential Information – Subject to Nondisclosure Obligations
18

amount exceeds all of the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts, then the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts will all be reduced to Zero Dollars ($0.00) and Sprint will have no further obligation to pay the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts;

(ii) for the true up for each calendar month during the third calendar quarter of 2011 (7/1/11 through 9/30/11) the October 31, 2011 TOP Installment Amount (as may be reduced as provided in this paragraph and/or as may be reduced by (i) above) will be reduced by the applicable 2011 Monthly TOP Eligible Amount.  If such 2011 Monthly TOP Eligible True Up exceeds the October 31, 2011 TOP Installment Amount then the October 31, 2011 TOP Installment Amount will be reduced to Zero Dollars ($0.00) and Sprint will have no further obligation to pay the 2011 Take-or-Pay and the Prepayment Installment Amounts (as may be reduced as provided in this paragraph and/or as may be reduced by (i) above) will be reduced by such 2011 Monthly TOP Eligible True Up that exceeds the October 31, 2011 TOP Installment Amount, beginning with the October 31, 2011 Prepayment Installment Amount, and continuing to each subsequent 2012 Prepayment Installment Amount until the full amount of such 2011 Monthly TOP Eligible True Up that exceeds the October 31, 2011 TOP Installment has been applied to reduce the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts, and if such amount exceeds all of the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts, then the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts will all be reduced to Zero Dollars ($0.00) and Sprint will have no further obligation to pay the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts; and 
(iii) for the true up for each calendar month during the fourth calendar quarter of 2011 (10/1/11 through 12/31/11) there would be no further impact to the 2011 Take-or-Pay, but the 2012 Prepayment Installment Amounts (as may be reduced as provided in this paragraph and/or as may be reduced by (i) and (ii) above) will be reduced by the applicable 2011 Monthly TOP Eligible True Up, beginning with the January 31, 2012 Prepayment Installment Amount, and continuing to each subsequent 2012 Prepayment Installment Amount until the full amount of such 2011 Monthly TOP Eligible True Up has been applied to reduce the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts, and if such 2011 Monthly TOP Eligible True Up exceeds all of the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts, then the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts will be reduced to Zero Dollars ($0.00) and Sprint will have no further obligation to pay the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts.
(b)    If the applicable Monthly 2011 TOP Eligible Price is less than or equal to the most recent 2011 TOP Installment Amount paid by Sprint  then the Monthly 2011 TOP Eligible Price will be credited against the most recent 2011 TOP Installment Amount, and the remaining amount is a “Monthly 2011 TOP Eligible Balance” and any Monthly 2011 TOP Eligible Balance will be added to any remaining Monthly 2011 TOP Eligible Balances from previous calendar months to create the “2011 TOP Eligible Balance”, then there will be no impact to any 2011 TOP Installment Amount, but Clearwire will credit the applicable Monthly 2011 TOP Exclusions Price to the then current balance of the Wireless Broadband Services Prepayment, unless and until exhausted.  If any Monthly 2011 TOP Exclusions Price exceeds the then existing balance of the Wireless Broadband Services Prepayment, then Clearwire will invoice Sprint for the amount of such Monthly 2011 TOP Exclusions Price that is not credited to the Wireless Broadband Services Prepayment (due to its exhaustion) (any such invoiced amounts for the applicable calendar month, the “2011 Monthly TOP Exclusions True Up”), and Sprint will pay any such 2011 Monthly TOP Exclusions True Up in accordance with the first paragraph of Section 7.4 of the Agreement. Any amounts paid by Sprint to Clearwire for 2011 Monthly TOP Exclusions True Up will reduce the Prepayment Installment Amounts (as may be reduced as provided in this paragraph) by such 2011 Monthly TOP Exclusions True Up amounts, beginning with the 2011 Prepayment Installment Amount that is immediately following such payment, and continuing to each subsequent 2011 Prepayment Installment Amount and then to each subsequent 2012 Prepayment Installment Amount until the full amount of such 2011 Monthly TOP Exclusions True Up has been applied to reduce the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts, and if such 2011 Monthly TOP Exclusions True Up exceeds all of the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts, then the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts will be reduced to Zero Dollars ($0.00) and Sprint will have no further obligation to pay the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts.  Any 2011 TOP Eligible Balance remaining after application of all amounts due from Sprint to Clearwire for 2011 TOP Eligible Usage shall be forfeited to Clearwire.

2.2.7.    2012+ Monthly True Ups.  Immediately following the end of each calendar month in calendar years 2012 and beyond in which any Wireless Broadband Services Prepayment balance is remaining, Clearwire will calculate the total price for all Wireless Broadband Services used by Sprint (including Permitted Wholesalers) during the just ended calendar month under this Agreement, including all Eligible Usage (for each applicable calendar month, the “Monthly Eligible Price”).  
Clearwire will credit the applicable Monthly Eligible Price to the then current balance of the Wireless Broadband Services Prepayment, unless and until exhausted.  If the then current balance of the Wireless Broadband Services Prepayment is exhausted, or becomes exhausted as a result of applying the applicable Monthly Eligible Price, then Clearwire will invoice Sprint for the amount of the Monthly Eligible Price that is not credited to the Wireless Broadband Services Prepayment (due to its exhaustion).  Any such invoiced amounts for the Monthly Eligible Price for the applicable calendar month is the “Monthly True Up”. If Sprint is invoiced for a Monthly True Up, then the subsequent Prepayment Installment Amounts (as may be reduced as provided in this paragraph and/or as may have been reduced by Section 2.2.4 above) will be reduced by such Monthly True Up beginning with next Prepayment Installment Amount, and continuing to each subsequent Prepayment Installment Amount until the full amount of such Monthly  True Up has been applied to reduce the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts, and if such amount exceeds all of the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts, then the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts will all be reduced to Zero Dollars ($0.00) and Sprint will have no further obligation to pay the remaining Prepayment Installment Amounts;

4. RETAIL MINUS PRICING

The objective of the following guidelines is twofold.  First, the guidelines are designed to determine the components of the retail pricing of Clearwire's Standard Network Service offerings that are attributable solely to IP access (i.e., the attributes of the Wireless Broadband Service that consist of access, speed, latency (e.g., QoS), throughput and other similar functionality that cannot separately and independently be replicated by the SIG Parties).  The remaining components of pricing, including pricing associated with applications, email, virus protection, music, content and other elements of the Wireless Broadband Service offerings that can be separately replicated by the SIG Parties, are intended to be separated and excluded for purposes of the pricing determinations.  Second, once the IP access components of Clearwire's retail pricing are determined, the intent is that the extracted pricing will form the basis of, and be applied to determine, the pricing for the Standard Network Services and Non-Standard Network Services offered to each SIG Party.  These guidelines will be construed in accordance with these objectives.

Definitions

Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the respective meanings set forth in the 4G MVNO Agreement to which this Schedule 7.1 is attached (the “Agreement”).  In addition, for purposes of this Schedule 7.1, the following terms, as used herein, have the following meanings:

“Added Clearwire Retail Customer” means, with respect to any Standard Network Service or Bundle, a Clearwire Retail Customer activating such Standard Network Service or Bundle during the applicable Measurement Period, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any existing Clearwire Retail Customer purchasing an additional line of Standard Network Service or a new Standard Network Service.

“Application Value” means, in connection with any Standard Network Service or Bundle, the Direct Cost of any applications or content included in such Standard Network Service or Bundle at (i) no additional cost to the applicable Clearwire Retail Customer or (ii) at a price that is less than the applicable Direct Costs, but in all cases excluding the value of any Excluded Applications.

“Applicable Discount Percentage” means [*****].

“Bundle” means a combination of more than one Standard Network Service and/or other services available for purchase as a single offering, excluding Volume Products; provided that the value of any third party service offering offered by Clearwire in combination with Standard Network Service(s) (including Sprint Wireless Service offered by Clearwire to its end users under the 3G MVNO Agreement) shall be determined in the same manner as a Non-Standard Network Service under this Schedule 7.1.

“Direct Cost” means the identifiable direct costs incurred by Clearwire or any of its Controlled Affiliates in providing the relevant applications, content or equipment to any Clearwire Retail Customer who activates such Standard Network Service or Bundle calculated on a per Clearwire Retail Customer per month basis and reflecting an appropriate allocation of up-front license fees and capital costs.

“Equipment Value” means, in connection with any Standard Network Service or Bundle, the Direct Cost of any equipment included in such Standard Network Service or Bundle at (i) no additional cost to the applicable Clearwire Retail Customer or (ii) at a price that is less than the applicable Direct Costs, in each case, reduced by the amount paid by the Clearwire Retail Customer (with such amount paid allocated over the average expected life of a Clearwire Retail Customer).

“Excluded Applications” means (i) IP addresses, (ii) a portal maintained by Clearwire or any of its Controlled Affiliates (A) that is made available to Clearwire Retail Customers, (B) the primary purpose of which is to direct customers to Clearwire services and (C) the costs of which, when amortized across the entire base of Customers, would be de minimis, and (iii) any other application or content that is provided at no, or de minimis, additional cost to Clearwire or any of its Controlled Affiliates.

“Excluded Bundle” means any Bundle that includes a Fixed Standard Network Service and is activated as of the end of the Measurement Period in which any of the following first occurs:

(i)    the first date after the first anniversary of the Effective Date on which 10% or more of the Devices intended for use in connection with a Mobile Standard Service then activated on the Clearwire Network relate to a Bundle that includes at least one Fixed Standard Network Service and at least one Mobile Standard Network Service;

(ii)    (A) the acquisition by Sprint and/or any of its Controlled Affiliates of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Ultimate Parent of Clearwire or (B) the consummation of any transaction or series of related transactions following which (1) the Ultimate Parent of Clearwire ceases to have any class of common stock listed on a national securities exchange and (2) Sprint and/or any of its Controlled Affiliates beneficially own at least a majority of either the then-outstanding shares of common stock or equivalent securities (determined on an as-converted basis) of the Ultimate Parent of Clearwire or the combined voting power of the then-

Confidential Information – Subject to Nondisclosure Obligations
22

outstanding voting securities of the Ultimate Parent of Clearwire entitled to vote generally in the election of directors; or

(iii) the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date.

“Fixed Standard Network Service” means a Standard Network Service that is targeted for usage by Customers in a specific location or venue (e.g., office or home) and not intended for usage from more than one location during one continuous session.  Fixed Standard Network Services include the services listed under Fixed Access Plans in Schedule 2.2.2

“MID” means a mobile internet device, other than a notebook computer, with internet capability and web browser functionality and which has a diagonal screen of less than seven inches.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following are specifically excluded from the definition of a MID: (a) any mobile internet device, handset or smart-phone with the primary purpose of voice communication and (b) any mobile internet device sold by or for Clearwire under a cell phone-like model where Clearwire specifies, buys, and/or brands such device for resale to consumers through its, or its partners' distribution channels.

“Measurement Period” means each calendar quarter; provided that the first Measurement Period will commence on the Effective Date and continue through the last day of the next full calendar quarter.  For example:  if the Effective Date occurs on February 1, then the first Measurement Period will be February 1 through June 30.

“Mobile Standard Network Service” means a Standard Network Service that is not a Fixed Standard Network Service.

“Volume Product” means a product available for retail purchase as a single offering from Clearwire that consists of (i) more than one Device of the same class (e.g., two or more Wireless Data Cards or two or more Handsets) but does not include Devices of different classes (e.g., a Wireless Data Card and a Handset offered together would not be a Volume Product), where (ii) each such Device is activated on the same Mobile Standard Network Service (e.g., an unlimited data plan for Wireless Data Card or an unlimited data plan for Handsets) but does not include any Fixed Standard Network Services or Mobile Standard Network Services of different types (e.g., two Wireless Data Cards, one of which is activated on an unlimited data plan, and the other of which is activated on a metered data plan would not be a Volume Product).  For purposes of this Schedule 7.1, (x) each Volume Product shall be deemed to be a standalone Standard Network Service and shall not be deemed to be a Bundle, and (y) (A) handsets, Wireless PDAs and “smart phones” shall be considered a separate class of Device (e.g., an offering of a handset and a Wireless PDA activated on the same Mobile Standard Network Service would be a Volume Product), (B) personal media players shall be considered a separate class of Device (e.g., an offering of two personal media players activated on the same Mobile Standard Network Service would be a Volume Product) and (C) embedded laptops, ultramobile PCs, MIDs and Wireless Data Cards shall be considered a separate class of Device (e.g., an offering of a laptop and a Wireless Data Card activated on the same Mobile Standard Network Service would be a Volume Product).  For example:  (A) a Clearwire product offering consisting of two Wireless Data Cards and an ultramobile PC with unlimited data plans will be deemed a Volume Product and, accordingly, a standalone Standard Network Service (and not as a Bundle) for purposes of this Section 7.1, (B) a Clearwire product offering consisting of three Wireless Data Cards, two of which have unlimited data plan and one of which has a data plan that caps usage at 3GB per month will be considered a Volume Product for the two Wireless Data Cards on the unlimited data plans, but not for the Wireless Data Card on the 3GB per month plan, and, accordingly, the two Wireless Data Cards will be considered a standalone Standard Network Service (and not as a Bundle) and the third Wireless Data Card will be considered to be a separate, standalone 3GB per month plan for purposes of this Section 7.1, and (C) a Clearwire product offering consisting of two Wireless Data Cards and one Handset will be considered a Volume Product for the two Wireless Data Cards if such Wireless Data Cards are activated on the same Mobile Standard Network Service, but the usage plan associated with the Handset will be considered to be a separate, standalone service even if such Handset were activated on the same Mobile Standard Network Service as the two Wireless Data Cards.

Services and Bundles
    
For purposes of this Schedule 7.1, an offering will be deemed a distinct Standard Network Service, Non-Standard Network Service or Bundle if it is comprised of a combination of IP access and other features affecting the end user's experience (e.g., speed of data transmission or usage caps) that is unique.  In determining whether an offering is a distinct Standard Network Service, Non-Standard Network Service or Bundle, features that do not affect the end user's experience (e.g., any contractual commitment to which the end user is required to agree in connection with the activation of such Standard Network Service, Non-Standard Network Service or Bundle) or bundled applications or content (e.g., email accounts or anti-virus software) will be disregarded, and all features that do affect the end user's experience (e.g., speed of data transmission or usage caps) will be considered.  For example:  if Clearwire offers both (a) an unlimited use air card plan that requires a two year contract and includes three email accounts and (b) an unlimited use air card plan that does not require any contractual commitment and does not include any email accounts, (a) and (b) will be deemed to be the same Standard Network Service for purposes of calculating the Weighted Average Retail Price with respect to unlimited air card plans.  Conversely, if Clearwire offers both (i) an air card plan that caps usage at 3GB per month that requires a two year contract and (ii) an air card plan that caps usage at 1GB per month that requires a two year contract, each of (i) and (ii) will be deemed to be different Standard Network Services for such purposes.

Effective Periods of Prices

The price to be paid by each SIG Party for each Standard Network Service, Non-Standard Network Service and Bundle as determined in accordance with this Schedule 7.1 with respect to each Measurement Period shall be effective during the period (each, a “Price Period”) set forth in the following table:

	
		
	Measurement Periods Ending on:
	Price Period:

	March 31
	next June 1 - next August 31
For example:  if a Measurement Period ends on March 31, 2009, the corresponding Price Period will be June 1, 2009-August 31, 2009.

	June 30
	next September 1 - next November 30
For example:  if a Measurement Period ends on June 30, 2009, the corresponding Price Period will be September 1, 2009-November 30, 2009.

	September 30
	next December 1 - next February 28 or 29
For example:  if a Measurement Period ends on September 30, 2009, the corresponding Price Period will be December 1, 2009-February 28, 2010.

	December 31
	next March 1 - next May 31
For example:  if a Measurement Period ends on December 31, 2009, the corresponding Price Period will be March 1, 2010-May 31, 2010.

Standard Network Services

		
	1.
	The price to be paid by each SIG Party to Clearwire for each Standard Network Service that such SIG Party sells to an End User in a Market will be equal to (i) the Applicable Discount Percentage multiplied by the Weighted Average Retail Price for such Standard Network Service in such Market during the applicable Measurement Period reduced by (ii) the Weighted Average Aggregate Equipment Value and the Weighted Average Aggregate Application Value.

	7.
	[*****]

		
	8.
	Notwithstanding anything in this Schedule 7.1 to the contrary, from and until the completion of the first full Measurement Period after any Standard Network Service is first commercially launched in any Market, the price to be paid by each SIG Party to Clearwire for such Standard Network Service in such Market will not be determined in accordance with paragraph 1 above, but rather will be equal to the Forecasted Wholesale Price.  The “Forecasted Wholesale Price” means, with respect to any Standard Network Service in any Market, the mutually agreed forecast by each SIG Party and Clearwire of the expected wholesale price that such SIG Party would reasonably be expected to pay Clearwire in accordance with paragraph 1 above in such Market for such Standard Network Service in the first Price Period following the first full Measurement Period after the commercial launch of such Standard Network Service in such Market, which forecast shall be determined to the extent applicable based upon historical data of Clearwire's wholesale prices for such Standard Network Service or substantially similar Standard Network Services in similarly-situated Markets and the parameters of Clearwire's retail offers for such Standard Network Service in such Market.

Non-Standard Network Services

The price to be paid by each SIG Party to Clearwire for each Non-Standard Network Service that such SIG Party sells to an End User in a Market will be equal to (i) the Applicable Discount Percentage multiplied by the Most Relevant Comparable Retail Price for such Non-Standard Network Service in such Market during the applicable Measurement Period reduced by (ii) (A) if such Most Relevant Comparable Retail Price is determined in accordance with paragraph 1(a) below, an appropriate weighted average aggregate Equipment Value and weighted average aggregate Application Value which, in each case, shall be determined by taking into account to the principles with respect to determining the Weighted Average Aggregate Equipment Value and Weighted Average Aggregate Application Value utilized in accordance with this Schedule 7.1 and the curve plotted, and related extrapolation or interpolation, utilized in determining such Most Relevant Comparable Retail Price or (B) if such Most Relevant Comparable Retail Price is determined in accordance with paragraph 1(b) below, an appropriate average of the aggregate amount of the costs incurred by the relevant service providers with respect to any applications, content or equipment (excluding any applications that would be Excluded Applications if offered by Clearwire) included in the substantially similar services that were plotted to form the curve used to determine such Most Relevant Comparable Retail Price, with such costs to be reasonably estimated taking into account reasonably available information (including the comparable costs of the parties) and such average to be determined taking into account the extrapolation or interpolation required in order to determine such Most Relevant Comparable Retail Price based on such curve; provided that if neither paragraph 1(a) nor 1(b) below is applicable, the price to be paid by each SIG Party for such Non-Standard Network Service shall be determined in accordance with paragraph 2 below.

	2.
	If neither paragraph (a) nor (b) above is applicable with respect to such Non-Standard Network Service, [*****].

		
	3.
	In addition, for any Non-Standard Network Service, the SIG Party that requested such Non-Standard Network Service will reimburse Clearwire for the direct costs and expenses, if any, incurred by Clearwire in developing such Non-Standard Network Service, including direct costs and expenses associated with any new Network Enablers or modifications, enhancements or updates to existing Network Enabler required to make such Non-Standard Network Service available, but excluding (i) any de minimis costs and expenses incurred in developing any Non-Standard Network Service that is a Simple Non-Standard Network Service and (ii) any recurring costs that are incurred following the development of such Non-Standard Network Service in connection with the use of such Non-Standard Network Service that are by their nature included in the Most Relevant Comparable Retail Price.

		
	4.
	If any SIG Party elects (each, an “Electing Party”) at any time to offer a Non-Standard Network Service for which another SIG Party (a “Requesting SIG Party”) has been required to make a reimbursement payment to Clearwire in accordance with paragraph 2 above (the amount of such payment, the “Reimbursement Amount”), each Electing Party and the Requesting Party shall make such payments among themselves as may be necessary so that, after giving effect to all such payments, (a) the Reimbursement Amount (less the amount of such Reimbursement Amount attributable to the period between the commercial launch of such Non-Standard Network Services by the Requesting SIG Party and the measurement date for such payments, determined on a straight line basis over a five-year useful life) shall have been shared by all such Parties in equal portion, provided that any portion of the Reimbursement Amount that is attributable to Market-specific costs and expenses (e.g., costs and expenses associated with adding necessary equipment to towers in a specific Market) shall be borne (in equal portions) only by such Parties that may offer such Non-Standard Network Service in such Market in accordance with this Agreement, and (b) [*****].

		
	5.
	If, on the other hand, Clearwire elects at any time (x) to convert a Non-Standard Network Service into a Standard Network Service or (y) to make available any Non-Standard Network Service to any Other Reseller, in each case, for which a Requesting SIG Party has made a reimbursement payment to Clearwire in accordance with paragraph 2 above, Clearwire shall (i) reimburse such Requesting SIG Party and, if applicable, each Electing Party for 100% of the portion of the Reimbursement Amount paid by each such Party (after giving effect to all reimbursements among the Requesting SIG Party and the Electing Parties contemplated by paragraph 3 and less the amount of such Reimbursement Amount attributable to the period between the commercial launch of such Non-Standard Network Services by the Requesting SIG Party and the measurement date for such reimbursements, determined on a straight line basis over a five-year useful life, allocated among each Requesting SIG Party and Electing Party on a pro rata basis based on the amount of such Reimbursement Amount paid by each such Party) and (ii) (A), [*****]

Schedule 8.10(a)

Requirements for a “Trusted Delivery” model applicable to supplier equipment:
		
	•
	A fully independent, third-party must test/certify the hardware, software and firmware before being deployed for service offering to Sprint and such testing must be conducted by US citizens in a facility located in the US. The tested hardware, software & firmware must be identical to what is being deployed for service offering to Sprint and the results must be sent directly to Sprint for review.

		
	•
	Independent third party testing will continue on a periodic ongoing basis.

		
	•
	Testing will ensure freedom from malicious code, back-doors, trojans, spyware, information gathering, information copying, or any other malware and the third party tester will certify to the same.

		
	•
	Clearwire will address on-going break/fix, support, patching, updates, etc to all hardware, software or firmware.

		
	•
	 All changes in hardware, software or firmware are subject to Trusted Delivery testing and certification prior to being deployed for service offering to Sprint.

Clearwire will allow Sprint, or obtain permission to allow Sprint, to do the following:
		
	•
	On-site evaluation of supplier's US distribution agent, if applicable

		
	•
	On-going, end-to-end review of “Trusted Delivery” model for supplier 

		
	•
	On-site evaluation of supplier's US facility

		
	•
	On-site evaluations of supplier and third-party tester

		
	•
	On-going reviews of models for all vectors (patching, updates, break/fix, etc.)

		
	•
	If requested, standard background checks on vendor employees.

		
	•
	Physical site visits to all suppliers, sub-contractors, or agents who are delivering or certifying the Trusted Delivery model.

Clearwire will maintain appropriate access controls (physical....sign in sheets, locks, doors, cameras, fences, etc.....logical...firewalls, network separation, no direct overseas access to Sprint network, etc.) over the LTE network, and will conduct reasonable logging of vendor access (who does what, when, where, how, etc.).

In addition to independent third party testing, Clearwire will conduct its own security testing using commercially reasonable efforts, against the supplier equipment in an effort to identify the presence of malicious code, back-doors, trojans, spyware, information gathering, information copying, or any other malware.

If requested by Sprint, Clearwire will escrow source code with an independent third party.

Clearwire will create documented methods and procedures on how it will accomplish Trusted Delivery and all other requirements in this Schedule 8.10 and Sprint will have the right to audit Clearwire's compliance with this Schedule in accordance with Section 7.10 of the Agreement.
