Indemnity, Subrogation and Contribution Agreement

 Exhibit 10.5 
  
 INDEMNITY, SUBROGATION and CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT dated as of November 18, 2004, among TRITON PCS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the
“Borrower”), each Subsidiary of the Borrower listed on Schedule I hereto (each a “Subsidiary” and, together, the “Guarantors”) and LEHMAN COMMERCIAL PAPER INC. (“LCPI”), as
collateral agent (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”) for the Secured Parties (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement referred to below). 
  

Reference is made to (a) the Term Loan Agreement dated as of November 18, 2004 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time,
the “Term Loan Agreement”), among the Borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”), Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as syndication agent, and LCPI, as administrative
agent and collateral agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), and (b) the Guarantee Agreement dated as of November 18, 2004, among the Guarantors and the Collateral Agent (the “Guarantee
Agreement”). Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Term Loan Agreement. 
  
 The Lenders have agreed to make Loans to the Borrower pursuant to, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions specified in, the Term Loan Agreement.
The Guarantors have guaranteed such Loans and the other Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee Agreement) of the Borrower under the Term Loan Agreement pursuant to (and as more particularly set forth in) the Guarantee Agreement; the Guarantors
have granted Liens on and security interests in certain of their assets to secure such guarantees. The obligations of the Lenders to make Loans are conditioned on, among other things, the execution and delivery by the Borrower and each of the
Guarantors of an agreement in the form hereof. 
  
 Accordingly,
the Borrower, each Guarantor and the Collateral Agent agree as follows: 
  
 SECTION 1. Indemnity and Subrogation. In addition to all such rights of indemnity and subrogation as the Guarantors may have under applicable law (but subject to Section 3), the Borrower agrees that (a) in the event a payment shall
be made by any Guarantor under the Guarantee Agreement, the Borrower shall indemnify such Guarantor for the full amount of such payment and such Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the person to whom such payment shall have been made to
the extent of such payment and (b) in the event any assets of any Guarantor shall be sold pursuant to any Security Document to satisfy a claim of any Secured Party, the Borrower shall indemnify such Guarantor in an amount equal to the greater of the
book value or the fair market value of the assets so sold. 
  
 SECTION 2. Contribution and Subrogation. Each Guarantor (a “Contributing Guarantor”) agrees (subject to Section 3) that, in the event a payment shall be made by any other Guarantor under the Guarantee Agreement or
assets of any other Guarantor shall be sold pursuant to any Security Document to satisfy a claim of any Secured Party and such other Guarantor (the “Claiming Guarantor”) shall not have been fully indemnified by the Borrower as
provided in 

  

 
Section 1, the Contributing Guarantor shall indemnify the Claiming Guarantor in an amount equal to the amount of such payment or the greater of the book
value or the fair market value of such assets, as the case may be, in each case multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the net worth of the Contributing Guarantor on the date hereof and the denominator shall be the aggregate net
worth of all the Guarantors on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 12, the date of the Supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Guarantor). Any Contributing Guarantor making any
payment to a Claiming Guarantor pursuant to this Section 2 shall be subrogated to the rights of such Claiming Guarantor under Section 1 to the extent of such payment. 
  
 SECTION 3. Subordination. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all rights of the
Guarantors under Sections 1 and 2 and all other rights of indemnity, contribution or subrogation under applicable law or otherwise shall be fully subordinated to the payment in full in cash of all Obligations which are then due and payable whether
at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. No failure on the part of the Borrower or any Guarantor to make the payments required by Sections 1 and 2 (or any other payments required under applicable law or otherwise) shall in any respect limit the
obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor with respect to its obligations hereunder, and each Guarantor shall remain liable for the full amount of the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder. 
  
 SECTION 4. Termination. This Agreement shall survive and be in full
force and effect so long as any Obligation is outstanding and has not been paid in full in cash or any of the Commitments under the Term Loan Agreement have not been terminated, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may
be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Secured Party or any Guarantor upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower, any Guarantor or otherwise. 
  
 SECTION 5. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
  
 SECTION 6. No Waiver; Amendment. (a) No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent or any Guarantor to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy by the Collateral Agent or any Guarantor preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All remedies hereunder
are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law. None of the Collateral Agent and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have waived any rights hereunder unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed by such parties.

  
 (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be
waived, amended or modified except pursuant to a written agreement entered into among the Borrower, each of the Guarantors and the Collateral Agent, with the prior written consent of the Required Lenders (except as otherwise provided in the Term
Loan Agreement). 
  
 SECTION 7. Notices. All communications
and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided in the Guarantee Agreement and addressed as specified therein. 
  

 2 

 SECTION 8. Binding Agreement; Assignments. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is
referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of the parties that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of
their respective successors and assigns. Neither the Borrower nor any Guarantor may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder (and any such attempted assignment or transfer shall be void) without the prior written consent of the
Required Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the time any Guarantor is released from its obligations under the Guarantee Agreement in accordance with such Guarantee Agreement and the Term Loan Agreement, such Guarantor will cease to have any
rights or obligations under this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 9.
Survival of Agreement; Severability. (a) All covenants and agreements made by the Borrower and each Guarantor herein and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Collateral Agent, the other Secured Parties and each Guarantor and shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Loans and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the
principal of or any accrued interest on any Loans or any other fee or amount payable under the Term Loan Agreement or this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents is outstanding and unpaid and as long as the Commitments have not been
terminated. 
  
 (b) In case any one or more of the provisions
contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, no party hereto shall be required to comply with such provision for so long as such provision is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, but the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 
  
 SECTION 10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which
shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement shall be effective with respect to any Guarantor when a counterpart bearing the signature of such Guarantor shall have been
delivered to the Collateral Agent. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 11. Rules of Interpretation. The rules of interpretation
specified in Section 1.03 of the Term Loan Agreement shall be applicable to this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 12. Additional Guarantors. Pursuant to Section 5.17 of the Term Loan Agreement, each Subsidiary Loan Party of the Borrower that was not in existence on the date of the Term Loan Agreement and is not a
Special Purpose Subsidiary is required to enter into the Guarantee Agreement as a Guarantor upon becoming a Subsidiary Loan Party. Upon execution and delivery, after the date hereof, by the Collateral Agent and such a Subsidiary of an instrument in
the form of Annex 1 hereto, such Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor hereunder. The execution and 

  

 3 

 
delivery of any instrument adding an additional Guarantor as a party to this Agreement shall not require the consent of any Guarantor hereunder. The rights
and obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor as a party to this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 13. FCC Consent. Notwithstanding anything herein which may be construed to the contrary, no action shall be
taken by any of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties with respect to the Licenses or any license of the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) unless and until any required approval under the Federal Communications Act of 1934,
and any applicable rules and regulations thereunder, requiring the consent to or approval of such action by the FCC or any governmental or other authority, have been satisfied.

Contribution Agreement provides that additional Subsidiaries of the Borrower may become Guarantors under the Indemnity, Subrogation and Contribution Agreement by execution and delivery of an instrument in the form of this Supplement. The undersigned

 SECTION 2. The New Guarantor represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured
Parties that this Supplement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms. 
  
 SECTION 3. This Supplement may be executed in counterparts (and by different
parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Supplement shall become effective when the Collateral Agent shall have received
counterparts of this Supplement that, when taken together, bear the signatures of the New Guarantor and the Collateral Agent. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Supplement by facsimile transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a
manually signed counterpart of this Supplement. 
  
 SECTION 4.
Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Indemnity, Subrogation and Contribution Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. 
  
 SECTION 5. THIS SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
  
 SECTION 6. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Supplement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, neither party hereto shall be required to comply with such provision for so long as such provision is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, but the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and in the Indemnity, Subrogation and Contribution Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired. The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to
replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 
  
 SECTION 7. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and
given as provided in Section 7 of the Indemnity, Subrogation and Contribution Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to the New Guarantor shall be given to it at the address set forth under its signature.

 3Cash Plus Incentive Plan, as amended.

 Exhibit 10.1 
  
 Cost Plus, Inc. – Management Incentive Plan 
  
 Introduction 
  
 The purpose of the Cash Plus Plan (the “Plan”) is to reward for performance by focusing Cost Plus management on (I) profitable growth of the business; (ii)
continuing to build a team and successors; and (iii) key functional goals for selected managers with a clear relationship to business results. 
  
 Administration of the Plan 
  
 The Compensation Committee (the Committee) will approve or disapprove final disposition of all matters pertaining to the administration of the Plan. 
  
 The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) has the responsibility to administer the Plan. The CEO will
be responsible for reviewing and approving the functional goals for participants that have them. The CEO will recommend, for Committee approval, changes to the Company financial performance goal(s) within thirty days of the beginning of a new fiscal
year (“Plan Period”). 
  
 Plan Participants. 

 
 The officers of the company (Vice President and higher) are eligible to participate in
this Plan. 
  
 Plan Performance Measures 
  
 Performance measures are established at the start of the Plan period. To assist in
determining actual levels of accomplishment on each performance measure, three levels of performance are identified: 
  

	•	Threshold – the level below which no compensation will be awarded on a particular performance measure. 

  

	•	Target – the budgeted or expected level of performance. It is anticipated that goals at this level will contain some ‘stretch’. 

  

	•	Outstanding – truly superior performance that exceeds the expected level. 

  

The Plan uses a mix of financial and individual functional performance measures, as appropriate, for each eligible position. The Financial goal is earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). The definition of EBITDA and goal levels will be recommended by the CEO and approved by the Committee. 
  

Individual functional goals clearly state the employee’s most important goal(s )to be accomplished during the Plan year. Individual goals have the following
characteristics: 
  

	 	•	Are objective and measurable 

  

	 	•	Relate to company goals 

  

	 	•	Deal with strategic issues within a department or functional area 

  

	 	•	May be related to the accomplishment of milestones on a long-term project. 

  
 The award related to each level of performance is recommended by the CEO and approved by the Committee. For individual performance measures the goal performance levels
must be approved by the CEO. 

 Target Awards 
  
 Target awards are expressed as a percentage of base salary and vary by position level ranging up to 100% of base salary. Awards will be paid within three months of the
end of the fiscal year. 
  
 Amendment or Termination of the Plan

  
 The Committee may terminate, amend or modify this Plan at any time.

  
 Other Considerations 
  
 Right of Assignment – no right or interest in the Plan is assignable or transferable,
or subject to any lien, directly, by operation of law, or otherwise, including levy, garnishment, attachment, pledge, or bankruptcy. 
  
 Right of Employment – participation under this Plan does not guarantee any right to continued employment; management reserves the right to dismiss participants.
Participation in any one Plan period does not guarantee the participant the right to participation in any subsequent Plan period. 
  
 Withholding for Taxes – Cost Plus has the right to deduct from all awards under this Plan any taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to such payments.
