(c)

	
any Restriction or withdrawal shall, wherever practical, apply in a non-discriminatory manner to all DPs which may have previously provided the Service within the relevant Ocean Region(s); and

For the avoidance of doubt, the Company acknowledges and agrees that the DP shall be excused from any obligation to satisfy outstanding service and/or traffic commitments with respect to a withdrawn or Restricted Service.

Competition

Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the DP from becoming a distributor of the services of, or holding any economic interest in, any entity that provides mobile satellite telecommunications services, regardless of whether such entity competes with the Company, provided that the DP does not unfairly or unreasonably favour such services or entity or unfairly or unreasonably discriminate against the Services distributed under this Agreement.  Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Company from placing restrictions on entities that become DPs after the Commencement Date in respect of the distribution of other services.

SERVICE ACTIVATION AND PROVISION

          

	
4.1

	
The Parties shall make arrangements to permit End Users to use the Services provided through the Space Segment and the DP’s Land Earth Station. Whilst the Company may publish recommended prices, the DP shall have full rights and responsibility to establish the service rates at which the DP distributes Services to its Resellers and End Users.  The Parties shall cooperate to provide for the minimization of credit risks associated with the provision of Services to End Users in accordance with this Clause 4.

	
4.2

	
The Company shall authorize such number of Points of Service Activation as may be necessary to facilitate widespread activation of End User MESs, consistent with applicable law, (for the purpose of this Agreement, each  Point of Service Activation shall be referred to individually as a “PSA”, and collectively as “PSAs”) and shall  appoint the DP to act as a PSA, upon the DP's request and if permitted by applicable national law, provided, however, that (i) the Company shall impose on each PSA, as a condition of its appointment, the Points of Service Activation Criteria in Annex I and (ii)  the DP, as a condition of such appointment, shall comply with the Points of Service Activation Criteria in Annex  I. The Parties acknowledge that, within a particular national regulatory framework, a PSA may be required to include a national regulatory authority, in which case the term "PSA", as used hereunder, shall be deemed to include, collectively, such national regulatory authority and such other entity that complies with the Points of Service Activation Criteria in the PSA Schedule. The Company shall monitor and enforce compliance with the Points of Service Activation Criteria throughout the term hereof.  The LESO shall strictly adhere to the procedures for registration, activation, deactivation and barring as defined in the Company’s Service Activation Manual and operational procedures, as amended from time to time in accordance with Clause 20.

The Company shall treat all information relating to the identity and corporate or personal details relating to End Users that the Company receives from a PSA, including all such information (including commissioning data-bases) obtained by the Company from the Organization, as Confidential Information (within the meaning of Clause 16) hereunder for the benefit of the DP and other DPs.

	
4.4

	
The Company may disclose information referred to in Clause 4.3 above: (i) to maritime safety and distress rescue agencies for the purpose of assisting with distress and safety missions; or (ii) on request from a recognised authority as part of ongoing investigation on production of a court order or otherwise as required by applicable law or regulation; or (iii) in order to provide enhancements to the Services as required.

The Company may disclose information referred to in Clause 4.3 above to a third party for the purpose of conducting market research, provided always that:

	
  

	
(a)

	
the third party shall be restricted from further disclosing such information under contractual obligations of confidentiality;

	
  

	
(b)

	
the Company shall notify all DPs thirty (30) days in advance of any such market research being carried out and shall provide to the DP full details of the proposed market research and the DPs customers to be approached.  Where the DP has a contract for delivery of the Services with a particular customer, the DP may object to such customer being contacted within ten (10) Business Days of such notification by the Company and the Company shall not contact such customer;

	
  

	
(c)

	
the Company shall ensure that any report or other end product produced by the third party as a result of the market research conducted, shall present all information relating to End Users in a form that is aggregated and anonymous and shall not include any information relating to the identity and corporate or personal details of any End User;

the Company shall distribute the report or other end product from any such market research to the DP and all other DPs simultaneously and as soon as is reasonably practicable after the completion of the research and may also distribute it to manufacturers of LESs, MESs and other equipment related to the Services;

	
  

	
(e)

	
subject to Clause 10.2, the Company shall use such information in relation to the Services and for no other purpose; and

	
  

	
(f)

	
the foregoing shall not prevent the utilisation of the information referred to in Clause 4.3 above by the Company to the extent that the information pertains only to (an) individual DP(s) and such individual DP(s) has/have authorised the use of such information.

	
4.6

	
Save as set out above in Clauses 4.4 and 4.5 the Company may not, without the consent of the DP and other DPs acting through the Network Planning Consultative Group Meeting, disclose the information referred to in Clause 4.3 to any third party and shall not use the ESAS database for any Direct Marketing or Generic Marketing.

	
4.7

	
Following notification by a PSA of a prospective End User’s valid application for service in accordance with the Points of Service Activation Criteria set out in Annex I, the Company shall facilitate the activation of such End User's MES by providing in electronic form to the DP the MES identification number, recognized billing entity and other information as may be necessary for service activation of such MES.

	
  

	
The Company shall not activate any MES that is not associated with an ISP or Accounting Authority or other entity approved by the Company, and which accepts financial responsibility for payment of End User charges in a manner consistent with the requirements of the Points of Service Activation Criteria in Annex I.

	
  

	
With respect to MESs that are activated prior to the Effective Date, the Company shall use its best efforts to impose the Points of Service Activation Criteria on any PSA in existence as of the Effective Date (“Existing PSAs”) and shall keep the DPs informed following the Effective Date of the identities of any Existing PSA that has not agreed to the Points of Service Active Criteria (a “non-compliant PSA”).  The Company shall provide without delay to the DP, immediately upon the presentation by the DP of reasonable proof of non-payment by the owner of any MES associated with any non-compliant PSA, the corporate and personal details of such MES owner for the DP’s debt collection purposes.

The Company shall not activate any MES associated with an Existing PSA that remains a non-compliant PSA unless the Company has undertaken the necessary steps to verify the information concerning an MES owner or operator that is required to be verified by the PSA using the procedures outlined in Annex I.  The Company shall provide without delay to the DP the personal or corporate details of the MES Owner/Operator and the details of the AA, ISP or other entity that has accepted financial responsibility in relation to that MES Owner or Operator for debt collection purposes in the event that the DP is not paid by the AA, ISP or other approved entity in question for a period of more than thirty (30) days beyond the date on which such payment should be rendered under applicable regulations.

	
4.8

	
The DP shall not activate on its network any MES that has not been authorized through the Company’s service activation procedures, as notified to the DP from time to time.

	
4.9

	
The DP shall not be obliged to provide Services to any MES that does not meet the DP’s own criteria (such as the creditworthiness of the end user or responsible billing entity associated with such MES), so long as the DP does so in a manner that is consistent with the DP’s obligations to provide distress and safety service under its national laws and regulations.

	
4.10

	
Except as expressly provided to the contrary in Clauses 4.13 and 5 of this Agreement, the DP shall be responsible to the Company for payment of all Charges arising from the DP’s provision of Services to any MES through the DP’s Land Earth Station.

	
4.11

	
If an MES has been refused access by the DP in accordance with the DP's own criteria (such as creditworthiness of the End User), and provided that such MES has not been subject to a mandatory financial bar (as provided for in X-OP-105 ), the DP shall continue to provide access to such MES for fixed-to-mobile traffic, but only if it can do so under circumstances in which: (i) the DP is not exposed to the risk of non-payment associated with such traffic; or (ii) the MES has no outstanding debt to the DP.

	
4.12

	
In order to achieve the purpose set out in X-OP-105, the Parties shall implement the Barring Procedures set forth in X-OP-105, as amended from time to time.  In the event that the Company notifies the DP of a mandatory bar on an MES in accordance with such procedures, the Company shall impose financial penalties on the DP in the event the DP violates such bar and shall impose the same conditions on the DP with respect to the maintenance and lifting of such bar as provided for in the Barring Procedures set forth in X-OP-105.  In the event that, after notification by the Company pursuant to this Clause, the DP provides service to an MES that is subject to a mandatory bar in violation of the requirements of the Barring Procedures, then the DP agrees that it shall pay to the Company the penalty Charges provided for in Annex D.  In the event that the Company fails to notify the DP of the lifting of a mandatory bar under the circumstances required by the procedures set forth in X-OP-105, then the Company shall not be entitled to receive the penalty Charges from the DP from the date on which the Company should have provided such notice in accordance with such procedures.

The Company shall have no other liability for failure to provide notice of the implementation or lifting of a mandatory bar except as expressly provided for in this Clause 4.

TECHNOLOGICAL FRAUD MANAGEMENT

 

	
5.1

	
The Parties shall use their best endeavours to eliminate economic losses and inconvenience to legitimate End Users arising from technological fraud such as, without limitation, the cloning of MESs and theft of MES identification codes.  The Company shall use its reasonable endeavours to develop and implement where possible technical means for detection and prevention of such technological fraud.

	
5.2

	
The DP shall have no obligation to pay Charges for Services in cases where the DP has unknowingly carried traffic to or from an MES through which technological fraud has been perpetrated, provided that the DP shall immediately notify the Company in the event that the DP knows or suspects that a particular MES is fraudulent or is being fraudulently operated and shall provide reasonable proof to the Company that fraud has occurred.  For the avoidance of doubt any fraud originating from, or due to connection with, third party mobile networks shall be the responsibility of the DP and the Company shall have no liability in respect thereof.

The DP shall comply with the Technological Fraud Prevention Procedures set forth in Annex J, as amended from time to time in accordance with Clause 20.

	
5.4

	
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the DP shall have an obligation to pay Charges under the circumstances outlined in Clause 5.2 in the event that: (i) the DP receives non-refundable payment for the Services provided from the End User in question; or (ii) the DP provides Services to the MES in question after the Company informs the DP that the Company has reason to believe that such MES is fraudulent or is being fraudulently operated; or (iii) the DP's failure to comply with the Technological Fraud Prevention Procedures contained in Annex J has allowed such technological fraud to take place.

AUTHORISATION SUBJECT TO COMPLIANCE

     

	
6.1

	
Subject to Clause 6.4 below, the Authorisation shall be conditional upon compliance by the DP with the LES Technical Criteria and Operating Procedures in respect of all Services being provided by the DP, or by a Reseller using the DP’s Land Earth Stations.  The DP shall also comply with the minimum LES Technical Performance Objectives set forth in Annex G.  The DP shall inform the NOC in advance of any planned outage of any of it’s LESs and, in the event that the LES has an unplanned outage, it shall report the reason for such outage to the NOC within 24 hours. Subject to Clauses 6.4 and 20, the Company shall apply the same LES Technical Criteria and Operating Procedures to all DPs for Services provided through the Land Earth Stations of such DPs.  DPs and their LESs shall cooperate with the Company’s Network Operations Centre (NOC) in analyzing and debugging LES Technical Performance issues as they arise and are identified by the DPs or the NOC.  LESs shall make power level or other parameter adjustments as requested by the NOC after appropriate analysis but within 24 hours of such a request.

	
6.2

	
If the DP fails to comply with its obligations under Clause 6.1 above the Company shall give notice to the DP requiring its non-compliance to be remedied within a reasonable time (which shall not be less than ten (10) days except in the event of an Operational Emergency) taking into account all of the circumstances, and after consultation with the DP.

If the non-compliance continues after the time specified in the Company’s notice under sub-paragraph (a) herein, the Company shall have the right, with immediate effect:

	
  

	
(a)

	
to suspend the Authorisation for non-compliant Services in respect of the LES or LESs concerned; or

	
  

	
(b)

	
to suspend the Authorisation with respect to any tenant entity in a Shared LES Agreement with the LESO in the event that such non-compliance is caused by the tenant entity; or

	
  

	
(c)

	
to suspend the entire Authorisation where the non-compliance affects all the Services provided and all of the LESs operated by the DP.

Notice of suspension shall be given by the Company to the DP immediately after any such action and such suspension shall continue until the date on which the DP resumes compliance with the LES Technical Criteria and Operating Procedures, as determined by the Company acting in good faith.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, this Sub-Clause 6.2 shall be without prejudice to the applicable provisions of Clause 21.

6.3

	
Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to the provisions of Clause 6.2 above, the Company shall have the right to suspend the Authorisation with respect to Services provided, or Land Earth Stations operated, by the DP without notice in the event that such Services or Land Earth Stations are not compliant with the requirements of the LES Technical Criteria and Operating Procedures and such failure of compliance has led to the occurrence of, or has the potential to create, an Operational Emergency, or reduces the capability to support maritime or aeronautical distress traffic, or reduces the capacity of the Space Segment.

	
6.4

	
The Company may grant waivers to the LES Technical Criteria and Operating Procedures after the Commencement Date, provided that any such waiver (or a functionally equivalent waiver) that is granted to other DPs shall be granted to the DP if the DP demonstrates similar hardship in similar circumstances.  Upon request by the DP at the time that the DP seeks a waiver, the Company shall disclose the existence of waivers granted to other DPs that are similar to the waiver requested by the DP.

	
6.5

	
DPs and their LESs shall actively support in real-time quarterly or other periodic contingency exercises as requested by the Company which test the ability of the LES and the Company to provide for distress and commercial traffic in simulated events of a Satellite failure.  DPs shall also maintain a capability to support necessary system and parameter changes as described in the contingency procedures such that the LES and the Company are able to provide for distress and commercial traffic in the event of an actual Satellite failure.  To support these requirements DPs shall have available on a twenty-four (24) hour per day, seven (7) day per week basis, staff who: (i) are trained in the relevant procedures; (ii) are authorized to execute the procedures; and (iii) have the resources and facilities available to so execute such procedures so that distress traffic may be recovered within the time limit agreed between the Company and the Organization.

(b)

	
such Value Added Tax (VAT), sales taxes and such similar taxes as the Company is obligated to add, impose or collect on or by reference to such Charges.

 

	
 

	

For the avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise provided in Clauses 4.13 and 5.2, the DP shall be responsible for the payment to the Company of the amounts in (a) and (b) above for all Services that are provided via the Space Segment using its LES (including those Services provided by Resellers)

whichever is the earlier.  These provisions shall be without prejudice to any other remedy to which the Company is entitled under this Agreement including the right to suspend or terminate the Authorisation.

	
7.11

	
Any payment to be made under this Agreement shall be made by electronic funds transfer directly to the bank account designated by the Company in writing and shall be deemed to be received by the Company on the date the amount is credited to the Company’s bank account and available for use by the Company. The DP shall be solely responsible for the costs associated with such electronic fund transfers.  Where a Payment Due Date falls on other than a Business Day, payment on the next Business Day is acceptable, and a late payment interest charge will not be made.

	
7.12

	
The DP may nominate an entity to act on its behalf for the purposes of billing and any associated or related matters, provided always that it shall provide thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Company of such nomination, including all relevant details of the nominated entity.  The DP shall at all times remain liable for payment of the Charges irrespective of whether the DP or the billing entity is named on the invoice and irrespective of any such responsibilities that are placed with that entity.  Where the DP has nominated such an entity, the Company shall be entitled to rely on any instructions, decisions or communications as if they had been made by the DP.

Failure to pay

	
7.13

	
If any payment required under this Agreement has not been received by the Company by the Payment Due Date, the Company may serve a written demand for payment.  Subject to Clauses 7.18 through 7.22 below, if the payment to which such written demand refers remains outstanding for thirty (30) days following receipt of such written demand, the Company may suspend the Authorisation.  In the case where payment remains outstanding for more than sixty (60) days after the date on which the Company becomes entitled to suspend the Authorisation, the Company shall have a right to terminate this Agreement forthwith.

The Company’s right to vary the payment provisions

	
7.14

	
Without prejudice to the provisions of Clause 7.13 above, where the DP has failed to pay the Charges such that the Company would be entitled to suspend the Authorisation pursuant to Clause 7.13 above, on the second occurrence of such failure to pay, the provisions of Clause 7.6 above shall be automatically varied such that the Payment Due Date shall be reduced to thirty (30) days after the end-date of the month to which the invoice refers. In such circumstances, the Company shall be entitled to require the DP to put in place additional credit protection including but not limited to a bank guarantee, parent company guarantee, escrow account or any other credit protection as the Company in its reasonable opinion deems appropriate.  Failure by the DP to provide such financial security within the time period stipulated by the Company shall be deemed to be a material breach of the DPs obligations under this Agreement.

Following a reduction in the Payment Due Date pursuant to Clause 7.14 above, provided the DP pays for subsequent Charges on or before the Payment Due Date for a continuous period of twelve (12) months following such reduction, Clause 7.6 above shall be automatically varied such that the Payment Due Date shall be reinstated to the period specified in Clause 7.6.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 7.15 above, on the third occurrence of a failure to pay that would entitle the Company to suspend the Authorisation, the provisions of Clause 7.6 above shall be automatically and permanently varied such that the Payment Due Date shall be reduced to thirty (30) days.

	
7.17

	
If the DP or an entity guaranteeing the DPs obligations under this Agreement, defaults on its prime borrowings, enters administration, becomes insolvent, or if its financial position is such that, within the framework of applicable national law, legal action leading toward winding-up, bankruptcy, or dissolution may be taken, the Payment Due Date pursuant to Clause 7.6 above will be automatically reduced to thirty (30) days and the Company may require payment on demand of all outstanding amounts due and payment in advance in respect of the provision of Services in the future.

Invoice disputes

	
7.18

	
The DP shall notify the Company as soon as possible but no later than thirty (30) days after the receipt of an invoice in the event of any disagreement regarding the Charges set out in that invoice.  Any such notice shall be in writing and shall include the reasons for the disagreement and, if applicable, a preliminary quantification of the disputed amount by means of a comparison of the Company’s traffic statement underlying the invoice, or part thereof, with the DP’s own call data records.  If the DP fails to provide to the Company the DP's relevant call data records or any other relevant records within sixty (60) days from the date of receipt of the invoice, the invoice shall be deemed to be undisputed and immediately payable in full by the DP, together with interest in accordance with Clause 7.10.  Following provision of the DP's relevant call data records, the Company and the DP shall enter into discussions and shall use their reasonable commercial efforts, including reciprocal provision of relevant records, to resolve disputes within ninety (90) days from the date of receipt of the invoice.  In the event that, as a result of such discussions, it is determined that the DP should pay any amount to the Company, the DP shall pay interest to the Company in accordance with Clause 7.10 for any amounts paid after the Payment Due Date notwithstanding initiation of such discussions.

In the event of a formal dispute, the Company and the DP, acting through their respective chief financial officers (or their designates), shall act in good faith to attempt to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days following initiation of the formal dispute.

	
7.21

	
In the event that the Company and the DP are unable to resolve the formal dispute in accordance with Clause 7.20 within the thirty (30) day period specified therein, the dispute shall be determined by an expert in accordance with Clause 32.2.  Where any payment made in accordance with Clause 7.20 has resulted in either an underpayment or an overpayment by the DP, such underpayment or overpayment shall be paid by the DP or refunded by the Company, as appropriate, including accrued interest calculated in accordance with Clause 7.10 from the Payment Due Date (if the payment is made by the DP) or from the later of the date of the overpayment by the DP or the Payment Due Date (if the payment is made by the Company), within fourteen (14) days of the determination resolving the dispute.

TAXES AND TAX CREDITS

           

	
8.1

	
The DP shall be liable for all taxes, levies, duties, costs, charges, withholdings, deductions or any charges of equivalent effect imposed on, or in respect of, the Services by any authority having the power to impose such taxes (whether or not the taxes described therein are collected by withholding or otherwise)

	
8.2

	
The Company shall remain responsible for any income tax imposed on its profits or net income by taxation authorities in the United Kingdom or any other territory as a result of the Company maintaining a permanent establishment in that territory.  In the event that the Company is responsible for an income tax in accordance with this Clause and the DP may be required to withhold and remit to a taxation authority by deduction or otherwise, on or in respect of any amount to be paid by the DP to the Company under this Agreement as instalment or other payment of the Company’s income tax liability, such amount withheld and remitted will be considered paid to the Company by the DP.  The DP will provide reasonable assistance to the Company in its discussions with the relevant taxation authorities to minimize the amount of such withholdings or deductions including the provision of tax certificates to determine the amount of tax withheld.

8.3

	
In the event that any tax, duty, impost, levy or like charge becomes payable in any territory in accordance with Clause 8.1 (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, taxes described in Clause 8.2), either by deduction or otherwise, on or in respect of any amount to be paid by the DP to the Company, or which the DP may be required to withhold in respect of any amount due to the Company under the Agreement, such tax, duty, impost, levy or like charge shall be for the account of the DP and the DP shall pay to the Company such an amount as to yield to the Company a net amount equal to the amount that but for such tax, levy, impost or charge would have been received by the Company.  The Company will provide, insofar as it is able, reasonable assistance to the DP to minimize the amount of such withholdings or deductions, including providing any relevant certification of its status as a non-resident of a jurisdiction or of its entitlement to benefits under a treaty.

	
8.4

	
If, and to the extent that, the DP pays a tax in accordance with Clause 8.3 and the Company receives and retains the benefit of a refund of a tax or credit against income tax imposed on its profits (whether in the United Kingdom or any other territory in which the Company maintains a permanent establishment) or other tax liability which is attributable to the tax paid by the DP (a "Tax Credit"), then the Company shall reimburse such amount to the DP or, at the DP’s option, the DP may deduct the applicable amount from amounts payable to the Company hereunder, provided the Company is satisfied with the nature, amount and form of any such reimbursement, including the provision of tax certificates to determine the amount of tax withheld.  The Company shall be deemed to have received and retained the benefit of a Tax Credit when such a claim for such credit has been agreed and accepted by the relevant tax authority.  A Tax Credit shall be deemed to arise to the extent that the Company's current year tax payments are lower than they would have been without the benefit of the said Tax Credit.  Use of Tax Credits shall be determined under a first-in, first-out basis;

	
  

	
The DP may identify a Tax Credit for which the Company may be eligible and assist the Company in claiming such Tax Credit. In the event that the DP claims a reimbursement hereunder, the DP shall identify any such Tax Credit to the Company and provide all necessary information and assistance to the Company to claim such Tax Credit.  The Company shall make reasonable efforts to claim Tax Credits so identified, save that the Company is under no obligation to claim a Tax Credit or pursue a Tax Credit that has been denied by tax authorities beyond the normal representations of the Company to such tax authorities.  The Company will assist the DP in further pursuit of denied Tax Credits provided the DP bears all costs of external advice or representations to the tax authorities or other relevant levels of appeal.

	
  

	
In the event of an audit or other enquiry by any relevant tax authority related to taxes or Tax Credits related to the Services provided by the DP, the parties shall provide such information to each other as may reasonably be regarded as necessary to comply with such audit, subject only to limitations imposed by law, confidentiality agreements with third parties, or where the information is deemed to be commercially sensitive.

13.2

	
Notwithstanding Clause 13.1, the Company shall compensate the DP for loss in the event that the Telecommunications Breakdown described in Clause 13.1 above is caused by the wilful or reckless act or a knowing or reckless omission of the Company in circumstances where the Company knew that such act would have such effect or was reckless as to whether or not such act or omission would have such effect.

	
13.3

	
In the event of the Company becoming liable in accordance with Clause 13.2 to compensate the DP, the loss suffered by the DP shall be deemed to be, and limited to, a proportionate part of the DP’s Relevant Net Revenues (as defined in Clause 13.4) calculated by reference to each hour or fraction of an hour (being not less than one quarter) during the period of time in which the Telecommunications Breakdown occurred.  The Company shall pay such amount to the DP, provided that in no circumstances shall the aggregate amount payable by the Company to the DP and all other DPs affected by such Telecommunications Breakdown under this Clause 13.3 in respect of all occurrences or series of occurrences arising out of the same proximate cause in any calendar year, exceed ten million United States dollars (U.S. $10 million).  In calculating the amount payable, account will be taken of variations in the volumes of traffic at different times based on the average diurnal profile for the Ocean Region in which the DP is located.

	
13.4

	
For the purpose of Clause 13.3, the term “DP’s Relevant Net Revenues” means the DP’s proportional share (based on overall system traffic) of the gross revenues received by all DPs affected by such Telecommunications Breakdown from the provision of Services by  all affected DPs during the twelve (12) months preceding the first incident giving rise to the claim less: (i) the amount of Charges that were payable to the Company in relation to such revenues; and (ii) the variable land-line charges associated therewith (subject to the ten million United States dollars (U.S. $10 million) limitation set forth in Clause 13.3).

Such disclaimers shall be in form or substance consistent with the disclaimer set forth in Annex E, or as close to such form as is permitted by the applicable law.

Subject to the exclusions set out in Clause 13.7 below, the DP shall be liable to the Company, and shall indemnify and hold the Company harmless vis-à-vis claims by any third party (including but not limited to other DPs) against the Company, for any loss or damage to the Space Segment caused by any act or omission of the DP, its Resellers, contractors, employees, agents, lessees or assignees, or any of them (which in no case shall exceed the sum of one hundred million United States dollars (U.S. $100 million) in any calendar year), except that the DP shall have no liability to the Company for loss or damage arising out of the provision of Services by the DP via the Space Segment in a manner authorised by this Agreement (subject to Clause 6.4 above), the LES Technical Criteria and Operating Procedures, or as otherwise authorised in writing by the Company.

Nothing in this Agreement shall exclude or limit the liability of either Party for death or personal injury resulting from such Party’s own negligence in any jurisdiction where, as a matter of law, such liability cannot be excluded or limited and, save as specified in Clauses 13.9 and 13.11 below, neither Party shall be liable for any indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages arising out of or under this Agreement.

Indemnities

	
13.8

	
As used in this Clause 13, the term “the other Indemnitees” means any Affiliate or director, officer, employee or agent of an Indemnified Party (as defined below) or of its Affiliate.

	
13.9

	
Either Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) shall indemnify the other Party (the “Indemnified Party”) and the other Indemnitees from and against any direct or indirect loss, damage, liability or expense arising from any claim by a third party, pursuant to or in connection howsoever with any libel, slander, or invasion of privacy or any allegation thereof by the Indemnifying Party, its Affiliates, Resellers or customers, as the case may be, arising in connection with the provision of Services via the Space Segment (provided that, for the purpose of this Agreement, other DPs shall not be deemed to be the “customers” of the Company and the Company shall not be obligated to indemnify the DP for claims arising hereunder that are attributable to another DP).

With respect to any claim for damage or loss that is required to be indemnified hereunder, the Indemnifying Party shall, at its own expense, defend any such claim subject to the conditions that the Indemnified Party (or, as the case may be, the other Indemnitees) shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonable notice of the receipt of any such claim, and provide such cooperation to the Indemnifying Party as is reasonably necessary for the defence of the claim, including, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, the filing of all pleadings and other court processes, the provision of all relevant information and documents, and providing reasonable access to relevant employees.

	
13.13

	
If, in the event of any claim subject to Clause 13.12, the applicable law does not permit the Indemnifying Party to defend the claim as contemplated herein, then the Indemnified Party shall conduct its defence under instructions from the Indemnifying Party and shall not make any admissions, settlements or compromises without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party.

(b)

	
cause material damage or loss to the Company or its reputation;

AMENDMENTS

 

	
  

	
The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall not be amended or modified in any manner by the Parties except by agreement in writing signed by both Parties, provided always that the Company may amend or vary any of the Annexes upon provision to the DP of sixty (60) days prior written notice or compliance by the Company with the notice period and procedures for consultation particularised in such Annexes.

If the Company determines, as a condition of entering into this Agreement or at any time during the term of this Agreement, that it would be commercially prudent to obtain financial security against the DP failing to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled, following reasonable consultation with the DP, to require the DP to provide such financial security in an amount and form that the Company, acting reasonably, deems appropriate.

WAIVER

      

	
26.1

26.2

	
No waiver by either Party of any particular default by the other Party shall affect or impair either Party's rights in respect of any subsequent default of any kind by the other Party, nor shall any delay or omission of either Party to exercise any rights arising from any default affect or impair a Party's rights in respect of the said default or any other default of the other Party hereunder.

The Parties shall forthwith enter into good faith negotiations to amend the Agreement in such a way that, as amended, is valid, legal, enforceable and, to the maximum extent possible, reflects the intended effect of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

ENTIRE AGREEMENT AND RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES

     

	
31.1

	
This Agreement, together with its Annexes, constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties and supersedes any prior understandings and communications, whether written or oral, between the Parties relating to the matters addressed herein.

	
31.2

	
The Parties intend that the relationship created between them by this Agreement shall be as independent contractors.  This Agreement is not to be construed in any way as creating any partnership, principal-agent, master-servant, joint venture or other similar relationship between the Parties.

 

	
32. 

	
SETTLEMENT OF DISPUTES

 

	
32.1

	
The Parties shall use all reasonable endeavours to resolve any dispute amicably, which shall include the escalation of such dispute to senior management who shall meet to discuss the resolution of same in good faith within fifteen (15) days of a notice being served requesting such meeting and setting out the relevant particulars of the dispute.

Disputes to be determined by an expert

	
32.2

	
With respect to any matter or dispute that is required by the express terms of this Agreement to be resolved by an expert under this Clause, the matter or dispute, on the application of either Party, shall be referred for resolution to an independent firm of internationally recognised chartered accountants in London that is agreeable to both Parties or, failing agreement within thirty (30) days from the date on which the matter or dispute arises, to be selected by the President (for the time being) of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales.  Once engaged, the firm shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator and shall be charged by the Parties to render its decision within ninety (90) days of the date of submission of the matter or dispute in question or within such shorter period as may be agreed by the Parties.  Any determination rendered by the expert shall be binding on the Parties, provided that either Party may invoke the arbitration procedures under Clause 32.5 to review the decision of the expert; provided further, however, that the appealing Party shall bear all of the expenses of the arbitration and of the other Party (in relation to its participation in the arbitration) (the amount of which is to be determined by the arbitral tribunal) in the event that the arbitration affirms the determination of the expert (notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 32.4).

	
32.3

	
The DP and the Company undertake to give all necessary information and assistance to the expert, including making all relevant accounting records available on a timely basis in order to resolve the matter in dispute.

32.5

	
Subject to Clause 32.6, any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach, termination or invalidity thereof, shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of the London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA) presently in force (“the Rules”).  The appointing authority shall be the LCIA.  Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, the number of arbitrators shall be three (3) (of whom each Party shall select one (1) and the third to be agreed by the other two (2) arbitrators).  The language of the arbitration shall be English and the place of arbitration shall be London.  Any arbitration award rendered in accordance with this Clause shall be final and binding on the Parties.  The Parties waive irrevocably their right to any form of appeal, review or recourse to any state court or other judicial authority, insofar as such waiver may be validly made.

	
32.6

	
For the avoidance of doubt, any dispute, controversy or claim which is required by the terms of this Agreement to be resolved by an expert under Clause 32.2 may be referred to arbitration in accordance with Clause 32.5 only after the expert has rendered his determination under Clause 32.2.

	
32.7

The DP irrevocably:

	
  

	
(a)

	
consents generally in accordance with the State Immunity Act 1978 to relief being given against it in England or any other jurisdiction by way of injunction or order for specific performance or for the recovery of any property whatsoever or other provisional or protective measures and to its property being subject to any process for the enforcement of a judgment or any process effected in the course or as a result of any action in rem; and

	
  

	
(b)

	
waives and agrees not to claim any immunity from suits and proceedings (including actions in rem) in England or any other jurisdiction and from all forms of execution, enforcement or attachment to which it or its property is now or may hereafter become entitled under the laws of any jurisdiction and declares that such waiver shall be effective to the fullest extent permitted by such laws, and in particular the United States Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976.

POLICY AND PROCEDURES FOR ALLOCATION

OF LES IDs and SHARED LES IDs

 

	
1.

	
Allocation of Physical LES IDs

 

	
1.1.

	
All physical LESs must be allocated LES IDs in order to operate within the network.

 

	
1.2.

	
Subject to 2.2 of this Annex and other relevant provisions of this Agreement, the DP shall be entitled to retain any LES ID (or, as the case may be, shared LES ID) given to the DP by the Organization and maintained by the DP as of the Commencement Date. Any conditions associated with the assignments of LES IDs retained by the DP as of the Commencement Date shall not be deemed to set any precedent, except as otherwise required by this Annex.

 

	
1.3.

	
If system changes are deemed necessary by the Company to increase available LES ID capacity (as agreed in accordance with Clause 20), it shall be a prerequisite to undertaking such changes to ensure that existing DPs do not incur LES upgrade costs.

 

	
2.

	
Assignment of LES IDs

 

	
2.1.

	
For those systems where unused LES ID capacity is available, and whilst there is a regular demand for LES IDs (physical and shared), the Company may, but is not obligated to, retain at least ten (10) unassigned IDs in order to accommodate future new physical LES requirements. If the demand for physical LESs slackens appreciably, the Company may at its discretion reduce the number of unassigned IDs to less than ten (10).

 

	
2.2.

	
Any LES IDs (including shared LES IDs) not being used by a DP for a period exceeding six (6) months, as evidenced by a failure to start passing billable traffic, shall be returned to the Company upon provision of written notice by the Company.

 

	
3.

	
Allocation of Shared LES IDs

 

	
3.1.

	
Tenant entities in shared LES arrangements will be assigned LES IDs by the Company, in order to globalise their services, provided that, at the time of any requested assignment:

 

	  	
(i)

	
the tenant entity must already have a physical LES of the same system definition operating within the Company network; or

 

	
INMARSAT PROPRIETARY

© Inmarsat Global Limited 2009

 

  

  

  

 

		  

Space Segment Access Agreement

Annex B

 

	  	
(ii)

	
the tenant entity must be operating a physical LES and have operated a physical LES of the same system definition as the hosted service operating within the Company network at or for a period since the Effective Date (notwithstanding that the LES Operator has subsequently ceased to operate such Service); or

 

	  	
(iii)

	
the tenant entity has demonstrated that a contract has been signed for implementation of a physical LES of the same system definition to operate within the Company network, provided that in such event the tenant entity must construct and begin to pass billable traffic through such physical LES no later than the date that is six (6) months following the date on which the shared LES ID is allocated, failing which the tenant entity shall return the shared LES ID to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, tenant entities in shared LES arrangements to provide Inmarsat D and D+ services shall not be required to have had a physical LES of the same system definition in order to receive a shared LES ID to provide such services.

 

It is acknowledged that where any DP wishes to close down all its LESs and terminate this Agreement, it may thereafter continue to provide Services as a service provider through another DP and may, for a period of up to five (5) years from the Commencement Date, continue use of its existing allocated LES Id in relation to such Services as were formerly provided by it as a DP. The right to continue use of the allocated LES ID shall remain subject to the provisions of this Annex B of this Agreement, notwithstanding termination of this Agreement and the Company shall enter into an agreement with the former DP and the host entity in this regard. Subject to the provisions of this Clause, any reference in this Annex B to “the DP” shall be deemed to include any former DP. LES IDs will not be permitted to be used in respect of Services that the former DP did not offer as a DP.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, the operation of a physical LES with any one (1) of the Fleet service standards (i.e F33, F55, F77) shall entitle the DP to enter into shared LES Agreements in accordance with the provisions hereof and receive shared LES IDs for all Fleet service standards. Save as aforesaid, LES IDs will not be permitted to be used in respect of Services that the former DP did not offer as a DP.

 

	
3.2.

	
If a physical LES is jointly owned and/or operated by a group of DPs, any shared LES IDs shall be similarly assigned to that group unless otherwise agreed by the group. Individual members of the group shall not therefore be entitled to be assigned their own individual shared LES IDs.

 

	
3.3.

	
In the event of shortage of capacity for shared LES IDs, other means of identifying tenant entities

Annex B

 

	  	
(e.g. use of TNIDs) are preferred, rather than making changes in the system design in order to increase available ID capacity. TNIDs may be assigned by the DP at its discretion, subject to prior notification to the Company for overall system coordination purposes.

 

	
3.4.

	
As a precondition to the allocation of shared LES IDs, the host DP shall have confirmed that the prospective tenant is duly licensed or permitted to provide Services under the applicable laws and regulations in the country or origin of the tenant and in which the tenant plans to operate or provide Services.

 

	
4.

	
Technical and Operational Requirements

 

	
4.1.

	
All relevant Technical Criteria and Operational Procedures shall apply to shared LESs as for physical LESs.

 

	
4.2.

	
In the event of NCS failure, shared LESs may be permitted to operate if such operation is in accordance with the technical requirements of the affected system. The host LES may be permitted to operate subject to Company authorisation in accordance with prevailing requirements.

 

	
4.3.

	
The host DP shall multiplex shared LES IDs as well as the host LES ID on the minimum required number of LES TDM signalling channels. If the host DP can demonstrate a need for additional signalling channels in order to accommodate traffic throughput, an additional LES TDM frequency will be assigned at the discretion of the Company, provided that assignments of separate LES TDM frequencies that are in place as of the Commencement Date may be retained by the DP.

 

	
4.4.

	
The Company shall not be obliged to assign shared LES IDs for any service once the supply of unassigned LES IDs for that service reduces to ten (10) or fewer.

Introduction

 

Dear Partners,

 

As part of the review of Inmarsat’s brand strategy, we have discontinued the use of the Via Inmarsat logos (including Via Inmarsat BGAN). You are now able to use the Inmarsat logo to co-brand your marketing materials that you have designed yourselves. The goal is to simplify the approach, remove any confusion as to which logo to use and unify our marketing efforts behind the master Inmarsat brand.

 

New Trademark License Agreement

 

In order to use the Inmarsat logo, you will need to sign a new Trademark License Agreement (TMLA). You can download the TMLA from the Connect area of the Inmarsat web site. You will need to sign and return it and will then receive a copy of the Inmarsat logo.

 

Logo guidelines

 

We have developed these guidelines on how you can use the Inmarsat logo. We would appreciate your strict adherence. If you have any questions regarding the use of the Inmarsat logo or would like us to review a draft of your materials incorporating the Inmarsat logo, please contact David Klar, Manager, Channel Marketing on +44 (0)20 7728 1705 or email: david_klar@inmarsat.com

 

We appreciate that you may have existing stocks of marketing materials with the Via Inmarsat logo. You may continue to use these, but when you produce new co-branded marketing materials, we kindly request that you use the Inmarsat logo and NOT the Via Inmarsat logo.

 

Co-branding

 

You may use the Inmarsat logo to co-brand your own marketing and sales materials. In addition, we would be pleased to co-brand our Inmarsat marketing materials with your logo and the Inmarsat logo. For Inmarsat co-branded materials, please contact Clare Butler, Marketing Communications Manager on +44 (0)20 7728 1376 or email: clare_butler@inmarsat.com

	 

 

  

  

  

 

	
The Inmarsat logo

 

	  
	
The Inmarsat logo is the focal point of the Inmarsat brand identity. It comprises 2 elements: the logotype and the specially drawn ‘symbol’, which cannot be separated – they both form part of the logo. There are different versions of the Inmarsat logo (colour, black and white) to suit different applications as shown later in this document.

	 

 

Logo colourways

 

The Inmarsat logo can be reproduced in a number of different ways. Use the following as a guide for selecting which colour Inmarsat logo to use for your application. Your choice should depend on the colour and complexity of the background you are placing the logo on, the medium you are using and also the colour of your own logo. Where possible, choose a version of the Inmarsat logo that complements your own logo.

 

	 	 	 	 	 	 
	
PMS logo 

 

This version is made up of spot colours only and is for applications such as vinyl lettering where four colour is not practical or possible.

	 	
4 colour logo 

 

This is the preferred logo option for co-branding your communications. It is generated from a 4 colour process.

FOR USE ON A WHITE BACKGROUND ONLY.

	 	 	 
	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 	 	 	 	 	 
	
 

 Black logo

	 	 White logo	 	 	 
	
 For single colour print jobs when use of colour is not possible or for use on complex light coloured backgrounds.

● Process Black

	 	
 For reversing out on single colour print jobs or for use on complex dark backgrounds.

 

White

	 	 	 

 

 

  

  

  

 

Logo usage

 

To ensure that the Inmarsat logo is always accurately reproduced, always use the original logo master artwork provided by Inmarsat. Never alter or distort the logo master artwork in any way.

 

 

Logo usage examples

 

Below you will find some examples of how to use and how NOT to use the Inmarsat logo.

 

  

  

  

 

Logo clear space

 

 

	
 

 

Clear space

 

To ensure sufficient standout, it is important to leave adequate clear space around the Inmarsat logo. The Inmarsat logo requires a minimum clear space around it as shown by the cyan gridlines. This is based on the x-height of the word mark. Neither your logo nor any other image/graphic/text should encroach on this clear space around the Inmarsat logo.

	
 

 

 

 

Logo minimum sizes

 

To ensure legibility and accurate reproduction of the Inmarsat logo, there is a minimum size, which should be adhered to. The minimum size for standard print applications is 25mm wide. The Inmarsat logo should NOT be used any smaller than this. With certain applications such as small promotional items eg. memory sticks, black and white versions of the logo can be used as small as 13mm, although larger is preferred.

 

If the logo has to be small, please ensure that it is legible.

  

  

  

 

Relationship to partner logo

 

	 	
  

	
Relative proportions

 

When you use the Inmarsat logo in marketing materials that you have designed yourself, it is important that:

 

•        The Inmarsat logo should appear approximately  3/4 the size of your logo

 

•        The Inmarsat logo should never be positioned so that it appears to be more prominent than your own logo

 

•        The Inmarsat logo should never appear in isolation i.e. without your logo

 

•        You always adhere to the Inmarsat logo minimum size and clear space rules when positioning your logo in proximity to the Inmarsat logo

 

Co-branding of Inmarsat materials

 

If you choose to have Inmarsat marketing materials co-branded with your logo, in most cases your logo will appear alongside the Inmarsat logo and equal in size.

Relative proportion examples

 

  

  

  

 

Inmarsat service names

 

When using Inmarsat’s service names in your marketing materials, you should not re-name them as if they are your company’s services, for example:

 

x  Satco’s (Your name’s) BGAN (service)

 

Please use:

 

ü  BGAN from Inmarsat

 

ü  FleetBroadband from Inmarsat

 

ü  Inmarsat’s BGAN service

 

NB. You are not required to use a TM or ® after the Inmarsat name.

Strapline

 

Your eligibility to use the Inmarsat logo in your marketing materials does NOT permit your use of the Broadband for a mobile planetTM strapline – unless it is in Inmarsat-designed co-branded materials.

 

The strapline is not part of the Inmarsat logo; it is a positioning statement associated with Inmarsat’s high-speed data products. It is trademarked for use by Inmarsat only.

Space Segment Access Agreement

Annex  L

 

	  	
without limitation, the Licensee shall not represent its use of the Inmarsat Marks as indicating or holding out that a legal partnership arrangement exists between the Licensor, Inmarsat (IP) Company Limited or the Organization and the Licensee, or that any other relationship exists between the parties other than that of licensor and licensee (or sub-licensee, as appropriate).

 

	
5.4

	
The Licensee shall, subject to the payment by the Licensor of any reasonable expenses incurred thereby, render assistance to the Licensor, if required, in maintaining registered trade mark protection for the Inmarsat Marks and for the purpose of enabling Inmarsat (IP) Company Limited and the Organization to register in the Territory any or all of the Inmarsat Marks and for the purpose of applying for the same on behalf of Inmarsat (IP) Company Limited or the Organization. Such assistance shall include, but not be limited to, providing to the Licensor such details of the Licensee’s use of the Inmarsat Marks as the Licensor may require, together with, at the request and reasonable expense of the Licensor, the execution of all documents that may be reasonably required to give effect to the provisions of this Clause 5.4.

 

	
5.5

	
The Licensor shall make available to the Licensee, on reasonable notice, during office hours, copies of the current Annexes as shall apply from time to time.

 

	
6.

	
Infringement

 

	
6.1

	
If the Licensee becomes aware of any actual or suspected infringement of the Inmarsat Marks, or of any other unauthorised use of the Inmarsat Marks in the Territory by a third party, it shall immediately inform the Licensor in writing, giving full particulars of the actual or suspected infringement or unauthorised use.

 

	
6.2

	
The Licensor, at its sole discretion, shall take whatever action it considers necessary in relation to any actual or suspected infringement or unauthorised use. If the Licensor decides to take action of any kind, the Licensor shall have sole control of the conduct of such action. The Licensor shall bear the entire costs and expense associated with the conduct of any such action and any recovery or compensation that may be awarded as a result of such action, including but not limited to any settlement that may be reached, shall belong to the Licensor.

 

	
6.3

	
The Licensee, if called upon in writing by the Licensor, shall cooperate fully with the Licensor at the Licensor’s sole expense, in the conduct of such action. Such cooperation shall not entitle the Licensee to any claim for recovery or compensation in respect thereof and all such recovery or compensation shall belong solely to the Licensor as stated in Clause 6.2 above.

 

	
7.

	
Infringement Action Against the Licensee

 

	
7.1

	
The Licensee acknowledges that the Licensor has neither registered nor applied to register the Inmarsat Marks in the Unregistered Territory and has not undertaken searches in respect of each trade mark constituting the Inmarsat Marks to establish whether any party has registered or makes use of the same in the Unregistered Territory.

Space Segment Access Agreement

Annex  L

 

	
7.2

	
If the Licensee is or becomes aware of any registered or unregistered trade marks in the Unregistered Territory at the commencement of, or during, the term of this Agreement that conflict with the Inmarsat Marks, the Licensee shall promptly notify the Licensor in writing of such trade mark(s).

 

	
7.3

	
If legal action is commenced or threatened against the Licensee as a result of its authorised use of the Inmarsat Marks, the Licensee shall also promptly notify the Licensor in writing.

 

	
7.4

	
Upon receipt of written notice of any legal action related to any claim, suit or demand made against the Licensee for its use of the Inmarsat Marks in the Territory in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Licensor, at its sole discretion and expense, shall take whatever steps it deems necessary to protect and defend the Licensee against such claim, suit or demand or address the claim of the third party in accordance with Clause 7.5 below. The Licensee shall have no authority to settle or compromise any such claim and the Licensor shall enjoy any recovery or settlement awarded or otherwise received in respect of such claim. The Licensor shall have the authority to settle or compromise any such claim provided, however, that the consent of the Licensee shall be required if any settlement or compromise provides for non-monetary relief against the Licensee. For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensor shall be solely liable for any monetary damages resulting from or arising out of any claim, suit or demand made against the Licensee for its use of the Inmarsat Marks in the Territory in accordance with the terms of this Agreement where the Licensee is required under the terms of the SSAA to use the Inmarsat Marks in connection with the Services, provided that the Licensor has received notice of such claim from the Licensee.

 

	
7.5

	
Where a claim is made for an alleged infringement arising from use of the Inmarsat Marks in an Unregistered Territory, the Licensor shall use all reasonable endeavours to negotiate a licence or other agreement with the claimant to resolve the alleged infringement if necessary. The Licensee acknowledges that if the Licensor is unable to negotiate a licence or to otherwise resolve the alleged infringement, the Licensee may be required to cease use of the Inmarsat Marks in the Unregistered Territory. Where, in order for the Licensee to continue using the Inmarsat Marks, a licence fee is levied by a third party in settlement of any alleged infringement, the Licensee may elect to either pay such licence fee or to cease to use the Inmarsat Marks in the relevant Unregistered Territory.

 

	
8.

	
Disclaimers and Warranties

 

	
8.1

	
Whilst the Licensee acknowledges and agrees that nothing in this Agreement implies that any trade mark applications listed in part (b) of either Annexes 1 or 2 shall proceed to grant, or that any registrations listed in part (a) of either of those Annexes shall be valid, the Licensor represents and warrants that the said trade marks are registered in the countries listed.

IPR LICENCE AGREEMENT

 

This Agreement is made this [##] day of [##] 20XX.

 

Between:

 

	
(1)

	
Inmarsat Global Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales, with registered number 3675885 whose registered office is at 99 City Road, London, EC1Y 1AX ( “the Licensor”) and;

B.

	
The Licensor has created the LES Technical Criteria and Operating Procedures relating to the Services, in which it owns or controls certain IPR (as defined below), the use of which may be required by the Licensee in order to provide the Services under the SSAA.

D.
