mischaracterized in any of Schedule
2.1.1  through Schedule 2.2.4  (collectively, the “Service Schedules”),
DISH and the Company shall negotiate in good faith to amend such Service
Schedules as appropriate.

 

Section 2.4  Service
Levels.  With respect to Services that DISH or the
Company provided, or caused to be provided, to the other party prior to the
Distribution Date, DISH or the Company, as applicable, shall at all times
perform such Services (i) with at least the same degree of care, skill and
diligence with which DISH or the Company performs similar services for itself,
consistent with past practices, including, with respect to the type, quality
and timeliness of such Services, subject to variation in the provision of such
Services agreed to by the parties hereto, but, in no case may such degree of
care, skill and diligence be less than the degree of care, skill and diligence
with which DISH or the Company historically has performed such Services for the
benefit of the other party prior to the Distribution Date, (ii) with the
use of reasonable care, (iii) in material compliance with Applicable Laws
and (iv) with substantially the same priority under comparable circumstances
as it provides such services to itself and its Subsidiaries.

 

Section 2.5  Additional Services. 
If a party reasonably determines that additional services of the type
previously provided by one party or its designee to the other party prior to the
Distribution Date are necessary to conduct such party’s respective business and
such party or its Affiliates are not able to provide such service themselves
(each such service an “Additional Service”), then such party may provide
written notice thereof to the other party. 
Upon receipt of such notice by the second party, if the second party is
willing, in its sole discretion, to provide such Additional Service, the
parties hereto will negotiate in good faith an amendment to the Services
Schedules setting forth the Additional Service, the terms and conditions for
the provision of such Additional Service and the Fees (as defined below)
payable by the first party for such Additional Service, such Fees to be
determined on an arm’s-length basis and at fair market value.

 

Section 2.6  Third Party Services. 
Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that certain of the Services
to be provided under this Agreement have been, and will continue to be,
provided (in accordance with this Agreement) to DISH or the Company, as
applicable, by Third Parties designated by DISH or the Company, as applicable,
as responsible for providing such Services. 
To the extent so provided, the Providing Party shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to (a) cause such Third Parties to provide such
Services under this Agreement and/or (b) enable the Receiving Party and
its Affiliates to avail itself of such Services; provided, however,
that if any such Third Party is unable or unwilling to provide any such
Services, the Providing Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to
determine the manner in which such Services can best be provided.

 

Section 2.7  Cost of Providing the Services. 
Unless otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Providing
Party shall bear all initial costs of providing the Services (including all
out-of-pocket and third-party expenses incurred by such party in order to
provide the Services).

ARTICLE III

 

Service Disruptions

 

Section 3.1  Contingency Plans.  
The Providing Party agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts,
consistent with its practices for itself and its divisions and Affiliates, to
avoid any inability to provide the Services. 
In the event of a disaster, the Providing Party agrees to use the same
degree of care to restore the Services as such party would use to restore
similar services for itself and as provided in Section 3.3, but in
any event no less than commercially reasonable efforts.  In the event of scheduled downtime, the
Providing Party shall provide notice to the Company Contract Manager (as
defined below) or the DISH Contract Manager (as defined below), as applicable,
with as much notice as is reasonably possible under the circumstances.

 

Section 3.2 
Non-Performance.  (a) 
Except with respect to a Force Majeure Event (as defined below) which shall be
subject to Section 3.3, if the Providing Party’s, any of its
Affiliates’ or any Third Party’s performance of any Service is interrupted in
whole or in part for any reason for more than two (2) consecutive Business
Days (other than a Force Majeure Event), then the Receiving Party shall have
the right to make, at the Providing Party’s sole cost and expense, commercially
reasonable arrangements to procure such interrupted Services from an
alternative source at a cost no greater than the fair market value of such
interrupted Services for the period the Service is interrupted; provided,
that the Receiving Party shall provide prompt written notice to the Providing
Party’s Contract Manager setting forth in reasonable detail the terms and
conditions of the arrangements to procure such interrupted Services from an
alternative source.  For the avoidance of
doubt, the Receiving Party shall not be obligated to pay the Providing Party
for the interrupted Services during the period when such party is not providing
such Services.

 

Section 3.3  Force Majeure.  (a) 
If a party, any of
its Affiliates or any Third Party service provider is prevented from or delayed
in complying, either totally or in part, with any of the terms or provisions of
this Agreement by reason of fire, flood, storm, strike, walkout, lockout or
other labor trouble or shortage, delays by unaffiliated suppliers or carriers,
shortages of fuel, power, raw materials or components, any Applicable Law,
order, proclamation, regulation, ordinance, demand, seizure or requirement of
any Governmental Authority, riot, civil commotion, war, rebellion, acts of
terrorism, nuclear accident or other acts of God, or acts, omissions or delays
in acting by any governmental or military authority (a “Force Majeure Event”),
then upon notice to the Receiving Party, the affected provisions and/or other
requirements of this Agreement shall be suspended during the period of such
disability and, unless otherwise set forth herein to the contrary, the
Receiving Party shall have no liability to the Providing Party, its Affiliates,
any Third Party or any other Person in connection therewith.  The Providing Party shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to promptly remove such disability as soon as possible, but
in any event no later than 30 days after giving notice of such disability; provided,
however, that nothing in this Section 3.3 will be construed
to require the settlement of any strike, walkout, lockout or other labor
dispute on terms which, in the reasonable judgment of the Providing Party, are
contrary to its interest.  It is
understood that the settlement of a strike, walkout, lockout or other labor
dispute will be entirely within the discretion of the Providing Party.  If the Providing Party is unable to provide
any of the Services due to such a disability, each party hereto shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to cooperatively seek a solution that is
mutually satisfactory.

(b)           Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
obligation of the
Providing Party to resume performance of
its obligations hereunder pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall
terminate and cease to be in effect to the extent and period that the Receiving Party has acquired such Services from an alternate source pursuant to this Section 3.3.  The Receiving Party
shall be free to acquire such Services from an alternate source, at such party’s
sole cost and expense, and without liability to the Providing Party,
for the period and to the extent reasonably necessitated by such
non-performance and during the continuation of any agreement entered into with
the provider of such Service, and for that period that such Service is provided
by an alternate source, the
Providing Party shall have no obligation
to provide such Service to the Receiving Party. 
For the avoidance of doubt, the Receiving Party
shall not be obligated to pay the Providing Party
for such Services during the period when the Providing Party
is not providing such Services.

 

(c)           Notwithstanding anything hereunder to the contrary, the
parties hereto agree that this Section 3.3 shall not be construed
so as to excuse a party hereto of its obligations to perform in accordance with
Article VII and Article VIII at all times during the
term of this Agreement.

 

Section 3.4  Recovery of Data. 
If the Providing Party loses or damages any of the Receiving Party’s data,
the Providing Party
shall use its best efforts to recover and re-process such data immediately
after discovery of such loss or damage. 
If the Providing Party is unable to re-process such data immediately, the Providing
Party shall notify
the Receiving Party
in writing of such loss or damage.

requested information is related to the Separated Businesses and does not

resolved by them, either party hereto may deliver a notice (an “Escalation
Notice”) demanding an in person meeting involving appropriate

parties hereto (or if the parties agree, of the appropriate strategic business

and penalty.  If additional amounts are
determined to be due on the Services provided hereunder as a result of an audit

In the event that the Receiving Party has a good faith dispute with regard to any Fees
invoiced by the Providing Party (the “Disputed Fee”), the Receiving
Party shall provide
the Providing Party
with written notice of such dispute (the “Fee Dispute Notice”), together
with a reasonably detailed explanation of such dispute, at the time payment
would have otherwise been due, and the Receiving Party may withhold payment of any Disputed Fee
pending resolution of the dispute.  For
the avoidance of doubt, the Receiving Party’s failure to pay the Disputed Fee in accordance with
this Section 6.3 shall not be grounds for a claim of breach or
suspension of work by the Providing Party.

 

(a)           In
the event that the parties hereto are unable to agree after reasonable
negotiation, in accordance with Sections 4.6(a) and 4.6(b),
upon the Disputed Fee, the parties hereto shall jointly select a qualified
unaffiliated independent third party to determine the fair value (the “Arbitrator”).  If the parties hereto are unable to agree on
an Arbitrator within 10 days of the receipt of a Fee Dispute Notice by the Providing Party, then there shall be an arbitral tribunal consisting of 3 neutral
arbitrators of (the “Tribunal”) whom each party hereto shall select one
within 10 days of the receipt of a Fee Dispute Notice by the Providing Party.  The two party-appointed
arbitrators shall select the third arbitrator within 10 days of the nomination
of the second arbitrator.  The
determination of the Arbitrator or Tribunal, as applicable, with respect to
such disagreement shall be completed within 30 days after the appointment of the Arbitrator or Tribunal, as
applicable and such determination shall be final and binding upon the parties
hereto.  The Arbitrator or Tribunal, as
applicable, shall adopt the position of either the Company or DISH with respect
to the Disputed Fees.  The fees, costs
and expenses of the Arbitrator or Tribunal, as applicable, selected in the
event of a dispute shall be paid by the party hereto who the Arbitrator or Tribunal,
as applicable, did not side with in its decision.

 

Section 6.4  Audit Rights.  (a) 
the Receiving Party
may audit (or cause an independent Third Party auditor to audit) the books,
records and facilities of the Providing Party to the extent necessary to determine the Providing
Party’s compliance
with this Agreement with respect to Fees paid or payable pursuant to this Article VI,
or the performance of its other obligations set forth in this Agreement.  For any given Service, the Receiving
Party shall have the
right to audit the books, records and facilities of the Providing
Party once for each
twelve month period during which payment obligations are due (and at such other
times as may be required by Applicable Law). 
The Receiving Party
shall also have the right to audit (or cause an independent Third Party auditor
to audit) the books, records and facilities of the Providing Party pertaining to a particular Service
within six months after the termination of such Service.

 

(b)           Any
audit shall be conducted during regular business hours and in a manner that
complies with the building and security requirements of the Providing Party.  Such audits shall not interfere
unreasonably with the operations of the Providing Party.  The Receiving Party
shall provide notice to the Providing
Party not less than 30 days prior to the
commencement of the audit and shall specify the date on which the audit will
commence.  The Receiving Party
conducting an audit shall pay the costs of conducting such audit, unless the
results of an audit reasonably indicate an overpayment by the Receiving Party of 10% or more (such percentage to be determined by reference to the

been terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; or (iii) the
date of a termination for convenience in accordance with Section 10.2(b).

 

(b)           Term of Services. 
The Providing
Party shall provide each Service beginning on the
Effective Date, or as otherwise set forth in the Service Schedules or agreed to
by the parties hereto in writing, and shall continue to provide such Service
until as otherwise agreed to by the parties hereto in writing, unless sooner
terminated in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement.

 

Section 10.2  Termination.

 

(a)           Termination of Services.  The Receiving Party
may terminate its right to receive any particular Service for any or no reason
by providing the Providing Party
not less than 30 days prior written notice (the “Termination Notice”)
setting forth in reasonable detail the Services to be terminated (the “Terminated
Services”) and the termination date (the “Termination Date”) for
each Terminated Service that shall not be less than 30 days from the receipt of
the Termination Notice by the second party. 
Beginning on such Termination Date, the Receiving Party shall not be
obligated to pay any Fees in connection with such Terminated Services other
than Fees owed by the Terminating Party to the Providing Party for such Terminated Services prior to the Termination Date.  The Receiving Party shall, as soon as
practicable but no later than 10 Business Days after the Receiving Party
realizes that a Service is no longer required by the Receiving Party and to be
provided pursuant to the Agreement, deliver a Termination Notice with respect
to such Service in accordance with Section 10.2(a).

 

(b)           Termination for Convenience.  Either party may terminate this Agreement for
any or no reason by providing the other party not less than 60 days prior
written notice setting forth the termination date for this Agreement.

 

(c)           Termination for Breach.  If a party hereto materially breaches any of
its obligations under this Agreement, and does not cure such default within 30
days after receiving written notice thereof from the non-breaching party, then
the non-breaching party may, at its option, terminate any Service affected by
such breach or this Agreement in its entirety by providing written notice of
termination to the breaching party, which termination shall be effective
immediately upon receipt of such termination notice.

 

(d)           Bankruptcy Termination.  This Agreement may be terminated by either
party hereto upon at least 30 days prior written notice if the other party
hereto is declared insolvent or

bankrupt, or makes an assignment for the
benefit of creditors, or a receiver is appointed or any proceeding is demanded
by, for or against the other under any provision of the Federal Bankruptcy
Act.  Any termination of this Agreement
shall be without prejudice to any rights or obligations of the parties hereto
accruing prior to such termination including the right to payment of unpaid amounts
owing for services performed prior to termination.

 

(e)           Termination for Illegal Agreement.  If there shall be any Applicable Law that
makes any or all of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, illegal or
otherwise prohibited or if any order of any competent authority prohibiting such
transactions is entered and such order shall become final and non-appealable,
then either party hereto may terminate any Service affected by such Applicable
Law or order by providing written notice of termination to the other party
hereto, which termination shall be effective immediately upon receipt of such
termination notice.

 

Section 10.3  Procedures on Termination. 
Following any termination of this Agreement in whole or in part, each
party hereto will cooperate with the other party as reasonably necessary to
avoid disruption of the ordinary course of the other party’s and its Affiliates’
businesses.  Termination shall not affect
any right to payment for Services provided prior to termination.

 

Section 10.4  Effect of Termination.  Sections
4.3 and Articles V and VI (with respect to Fees and Taxes
attributable to periods prior to termination), 7.2(a), 7.2(b), 7.2(d),
10.3, this Section 10.4 and Articles VII, VIII,
XI and XII shall survive any termination of this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, termination of a
particular Service hereunder shall be a termination of this Agreement.

stated here would affect the Fees that each party hereto charges, and in
consideration of those Fees, each party hereto agrees to the stated allocation
of risk.

Separation Agreement referenced herein, constitutes the entire agreement
between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained herein,

doubt, each party hereto agrees that all Services provided as of the Effective
Date shall be provided under the terms and conditions of this Agreement and
shall no longer be provided under the Transition Services Agreement, the
Services Agreement or the Satellite Procurement Agreement, as applicable.

 

Section 12.2  Governing Law; Service of
Process; Jurisdiction.  This Agreement and the legal
relations between the parties hereto shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the
conflict of laws rules thereof to the extent such rules would require
the application of the law of another jurisdiction.  The state or federal courts located within
the City of New York shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any and all
disputes between the parties hereto, whether in law or equity, arising out of or
relating to this Agreement and the agreements, instruments and documents
contemplated hereby and the parties hereto consent to and agree to submit to
the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts. 
Each of the parties hereto hereby waives and agrees not to assert in any
such dispute, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any claim that
(i) such party is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such
courts, (ii) such party and such party’s property is immune from any legal
process issued by such courts or (iii) any litigation or other proceeding
commenced in such courts is brought in an inconvenient forum.  The parties hereto hereby agree that mailing
of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in
the manner provided in Section 12.10, or in such other manner as
may be permitted by Applicable Law, shall be valid and sufficient service
thereof and hereby waive any objections to service accomplished in the manner
herein provided.

 

Section 12.3  Waiver of Jury Trial. 
EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT THAT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY

BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).

ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH
OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTY HERETO
HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT.

Agreement shall not be amended, modified or supplemented except by a written
instrument signed by an authorized representative of each of DISH and the
Company.

 

Section 12.5  Waiver.  Any term or
provision of this Agreement may be waived, or the time for its performance may
be extended, by the party or the parties hereto entitled to the benefit
thereof.  Any such waiver shall be
validly and sufficiently given for the purposes of this Agreement if, as to any
party hereto, it is in writing signed by an authorized representative of such
party.  The failure of any party hereto
to enforce at any time any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed
to be a waiver of such provision, or in any way to affect the validity of this
Agreement or any part hereof or the right of any party hereto thereafter to
enforce each and every such provision. 
No waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall be held to constitute a
waiver of any other or subsequent breach.

 

Section 12.6  Severability.  If any
provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or
circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid,
void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof or thereof, or the
application of such provision to Persons or circumstances or in jurisdictions
other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, shall
remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or
invalidated thereby, so long as the economic or legal substance of the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, as the case may be, is not
affected in any manner adverse to any party hereto or thereto. Upon such
determination, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to
agree upon such a suitable and equitable provision to effect the original
intent of the parties hereto.

 

Section 12.7  Execution in Counterparts. 
This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original instrument, but all of which shall be
considered one and the same agreement, and shall become binding when one or
more counterparts have been signed by and delivered to each of the parties
hereto.

 

Section 12.8  Successors and Assigns. 
This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns; provided, however,
that the rights and obligations of either party hereto under this Agreement
shall not be assignable by such party without the prior written consent of the
other party.  The successors and
permitted assigns hereunder shall include any permitted assignee as well as the
successors in interest to such permitted assignee (whether by merger, liquidation
(including successive mergers or liquidations) or otherwise).

 

Section 12.9  Third Party Beneficiaries. 
Except to the extent otherwise provided in Article XI, the
provisions of this Agreement are solely for the benefit of the parties hereto
and their respective Affiliates, successors and permitted assigns and shall not
confer upon any third Person any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement or
other right in excess of those existing without reference to this Agreement.

 

Section 12.10  Notices.  All notices
or other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be
deemed to be duly given when delivered or mailed in accordance with the terms
of Section 9.12 of the Separation Agreement.

Section 12.11  No Public Announcement. 
Neither DISH nor the Company shall, without the approval of the other,
make any press release or other public announcement concerning the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, except as and to the extent that either party
hereto shall be so obligated by Applicable Law or the rules of any
regulatory body, stock exchange or quotation system, in which case the other
party hereto shall be advised and the parties hereto shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause a mutually agreeable release or announcement to be
issued; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not preclude
communications or disclosures necessary to implement the provisions of this
Agreement or to comply with Applicable Law, accounting and SEC disclosure
obligations or the rules of any stock exchange.

 

Section 12.12  Limited Liability. 
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no individual who
is a stockholder, director, employee, officer, agent or representative of the
Company or DISH, in its capacity as such, shall have any liability in respect
of or relating to the covenants or obligations of such party under this
Agreement and, to the fullest extent legally permissible, each of the Company
and DISH, for itself and its respective stockholders, directors, employees,
officers and Affiliates, waives and agrees not to seek to assert or enforce any
such liability that any such Person otherwise might have pursuant to Applicable
Law.

 

Section 12.13  Divestiture.  If the
Receiving Party divests or sells all or a part of the Receiving Party during
the term of this Agreement, the Providing Party shall continue to provide the
Services to the divested or sold entity or part thereof until the termination
or expiration of the provision of Services hereunder, as long as the Providing
Party’s obligations hereunder are not materially increased thereby.

 

Section 12.14  Mutual Drafting. 
This Agreement shall be deemed to be the joint work product of DISH and
the Company and any rule of construction that a document shall be
interpreted or construed against a drafter of such document shall not be
applicable.
