                            MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT

This binding MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT ("MOA") is dated as of February 22, 2000,
and sets forth the material terms agreed upon amongst Gilat Satellite Networks
Ltd. ("Gilat"), EchoStar Satellite Corporation ("EchoStar"), and Gilat's
affiliate, Gilat-To-Home Inc. ("G2H"). Although the parties intend to diligently
negotiate and promptly enter into Definitive Agreements, the parties acknowledge
and agree that this MOA is binding and shall form the basis for consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby. In the event the parties fail for any
reason to execute the Definitive Agreements prior to the expiration of the Term
of this MOA, then, unless otherwise agreed amongst the parties in writing, this
MOA shall terminate at such time.

1. General
1.1 The parties (including each of the parties' affiliates) will cooperate for
the purpose of providing a broadband internet access service via satellite to
G2H subscribers and DISH Network subscribers.
1.2 Echostar will market G2H's broadband internet access services to DISH
Network customers and retailers.
1.3 G2H will market EchoStar's multichannel video services together with G2H's
broadband internet access product.

2. Terms to G2H Subscribers sourced by EchoStar
2.1 The Subscriber will be charged a monthly fee for the data service.
2.2 The Subscriber will be required to subscribe to the service for at least a
certain minimum period of time.
2.3 Each subscriber receiving the hardware will be charged a hardware fee for
the hardware package, plus at G2H's discretion an installation fee.
2.4 The amounts of the charges for the services specified above in this Section
2 shall be determined by G2H, in consultation with EchoStar.
2.5 Hardware will be delivered to EchoStar and will remain G2H inventory.
EchoStar will be responsible for the G2H inventory while inventoried with
EchoStar. The hardware will contain the following: personal computer
configured to support the G2H two-way product (when applicable), install kit,
antenna and user documentation package.

3. Consideration to EchoStar for generating or otherwise sourcing Subscribers
to G2H Services
3.1 EchoStar will receive an activation fee of $100 for each subscriber.
3.2 Residual Commissions will be as follows:
                For the basic data service, EchoStar will receive $2 per
         subscriber per month.
                Additionally, for non-access revenues, EchoStar will receive
         20% of revenue net of costs related to such non-access services.

4. Service
4.1 EchoStar's Customer Call Center ("CSC") will be the initial point of contact
for service calls (help desk plus billing and collection). The charge to G2H for
such services will, at G2H's election which must be made prior to launch of
service, be either: (a) $6.00 per subscriber per month; or (b) $7.00 per call.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the end of the first six months of this MOA,
the charge to G2H for such services will be EchoStar's actual cost, plus 15%.

4.2 There will be a direct (hot transfer) link between the EchoStar CSC and the
G2H CSC for the data service, which will be set up and maintained at G2H's
expense. The G2H CSC will provide technical and other support to subscribers.

4.3 EchoStar will ship products for the G2H service to Subscribers using its
standard procedures. Any incremental out of pocket expenses of EchoStar (i.e.,
those which EchoStar incurs in addition to out of pocket expenses which it
would in any event incur with respect to its video business) in connection with
such shipment shall be paid by G2H upon presentment by EchoStar of an invoice.
<PAGE>   2
4.4 All in-warranty and out-of-warranty maintenance/service related to EchoStar
equipment will be borne by EchoStar, and all in-warranty and out-of-warranty
maintenance/service related to G2H equipment will be handled by and at the
expense of G2H. If both systems are not functioning properly and it is
determined that there is a common problem, then the costs of in-warranty and
out-of-warranty maintenance/service will be divided equally between G2H and
EchoStar, provided however that the cost/charge for such service to EchoStar
will not exceed $50.

5.1 Installation By Dish Network Service Corporation (DNSC):
5.1.1 DNSC will offer its services for installation of G2H equipment. If only
G2H equipment is installed, then G2H will cover the actual costs of
installation.
5.1.2 If EchoStar equipment and G2H equipment is installed, then EchoStar and
G2H will split the profit or subsidy (as applicable) on such installation, on a
50-50% basis; provided however that the cost/charge for such installation to
EchoStar will not exceed $100.

5.2 Marketing and Installation by EchoStar's independent installers/retailers.
To encourage installers/retailers to market the data service and install the
hardware, G2H will pay an incentive package to such installers/retailers. The
package will be developed with help and consultation of Echostar, but will be
determined by G2H and will include terms similar to the following:

      5.2.1 An activation fee of approximately $200;
      5.2.2 A Residual of $1 per subscriber per month;
      5.2.3 COOP and incentives budget to be determined but consistent with
EchoStar's standard operating procedure; and
      5.2.4 An installation fee TBD for the G2H equipment.

5.3 Any services to be performed by EchoStar which are not in the ordinary
course of business hereunder and/or are not reflected in this MOA, shall be
subject to agreement amongst the parties hereto, including as to terms of
payment to EchoStar.

6.    Exclusivity
In order to protect each of the parties' proprietary, trade secret and
confidential information, EchoStar, Gilat and G2H agree that throughout the
term of this MOA:

      (a) EchoStar will not sell, develop, distribute or use any Ku-Band
two-way terminal products on its own or in conjunction with any party other
than Gilat and G2H. EchoStar will also give Gilat and/or G2H a right of first
refusal and right of last look with respect to the sale or distribution by
EchoStar of any Ka-Band two-way broadband interactive terminal products, by
giving Gilat and/or GTH specifications and an opportunity to match a third
party terminal offer (including with respect to timetable and other
requirements). The limitations on EchoStar set forth in this subsection (a)
shall not preclude without limitation any investment or acquisition by EchoStar
in activities similar to those contemplated under this MOA, provided that
EchoStar will not use any other Ku-Band terminal product, other than the G2H
Ku-Band terminal product, for the Term of this MOA; and

      (b) Gilat and G2H will not perform work for, or enter into any transaction
for the delivery of two-way data products and/or services with, any cable or
satellite multi-channel video and/or audio provider in the U.S. absent written
consent from EchoStar.

7.    Term
The Term of this MOA shall be for the period commencing on the date first
provided above and ending on March 31, 2001. It is the desire of the parties
to conclude Definitive Agreements within that time period.

8. Market of EchoStar Services
G2H will market Echostar's multi-channel video services to G2H customers and
install necessary hardware together with its broadband internet access
equipment. G2H will receive the same deal offered generally to EchoStar's
retailer base. It is anticipated that such a package will include:

      Installation fee (if applicable)
<PAGE>   3
      Activation fee
      Residual per subscriber per month based on volume of sales.
      Eligibility for any promotions made generally available to EchoStar's
      retailers.

9. Finance Transaction
The parties will discuss without obligation the possibility of a finance
arrangement whereby EchoStar would invest in G2H.

10. The parties shall maintain the confidentiality of: (a) the terms and
conditions of this MOA, (b) any matters relating to the ongoing negotiations
and cooperation between the parties, and (c) any materials and information of a
party hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties shall issue a
mutually acceptable press release announcing the transaction consummated hereby

2.       Gilat/Spacenet Products & Services - Order Priority.

         capacity to producing and timely delivering the G/S Products & Services
         to be provided hereunder to StarBand in accordance with accepted
         delivery dates. To achieve this result, Gilat and StarBand agree to the
         following procedures:

         (a)      By the first day of each month, StarBand shall submit to Gilat
                  order forecasts for the next twelve (12) months. The forecast
                  for the first three (3) months shall be a firm order. The
                  forecast for the next three (3) months shall be a binding
                  forecast subject to an adjustment of a maximum of plus or
                  minus [*] of the total amount set forth in the forecast. The
                  forecast for the next three (3) months shall be a binding
                  forecast subject to an adjustment of a maximum of plus or
                  minus [*] of the total amount set forth in the forecast. For

<PAGE>   6

         (b)      Gilat shall accept all firm purchase orders within the
                  StarBand forecast that StarBand places with Gilat at least
                  ninety (90) days prior to the required delivery date, subject
                  to the [*] capacity terms below. If, at the start of a
                  calendar quarter, accepted StarBand firm purchase orders
                  represent less than [*] of Gilat's capacity to produce for
                  that quarter products of the kind that StarBand ordered for
                  that quarter, Gilat agrees to accept during the first fifteen
                  (15) days of that quarter additional firm purchase orders from
                  StarBand for up to [*] of such capacity.

         (c)      If manufacturing or delivery problems arise that affect
                  Gilat's forecasted capacity and require Gilat to allocate
                  quarterly output among customers with accepted firm orders,
                  Gilat agrees to supply StarBand with the greater of (i) [*] of
                  Gilat's actual quarterly output of products of the kind
                  ordered by StarBand for the duration of such problems, or (ii)
                  a percentage of Gilat's actual quarterly output for the
                  duration of such problems calculated by dividing (A) the
                  quantity of StarBand's accepted firm orders for the calendar
                  quarter at the time that the problems arise by (B) the total
                  quantity of firm orders from all parties for that quarter,
                  provided that in no event shall StarBand be entitled to any
                  more than [*] of Gilat's actual quarterly output of products
                  of the kind ordered by StarBand for the duration of such
                  problems.

3.       Software License and Support/Intellectual Property.

         (a)      "Software" means any computer program, including any
                  modifications, updates, or additions, which may be included in
                  or with Gilat-provided Equipment as object code, or in
                  executable form in any medium, and related materials such as
                  diagrams, manuals and other documentation which are for use
                  with the Equipment provided to StarBand under this Agreement.

         (b)      Gilat hereby grants to StarBand (including a right to
                  sublicense to its customers) and StarBand accepts a
                  non-exclusive license to use or have used the Software
                  residing in Gilat-provided Equipment, but only for the purpose
                  of causing such Equipment to operate for the provision of
                  transmission services and not otherwise. StarBand shall not
                  permit any third party to gain access to the Software or
                  transfer the Software to any third party, copy or permit to
                  have copied the Software, reverse engineer, disassemble,
                  de-compile, or transmit the Software in any form or by any
                  means. Software is and shall remain the exclusive property of
                  Gilat or Gilat's vendors. No license other than that
                  specifically stated herein is granted to StarBand, and
                  StarBand shall have no right under patent, trademark,
                  copyright, trade secret or other intellectual property of
                  Gilat or Gilat's vendors other than that granted herein.

         (c)      The service fees detailed in Attachment A cover to the extent
                  paid, the Software license and maintenance for the applicable
                  Software for the Agreement Term. During the Agreement Term,
                  Gilat will provide remedial software support services so that
                  Gilat's software operates on the Gilat-provided Equipment. For
                  as long as StarBand remains current in its payment of all
                  charges hereunder and continues the relevant optional services
                  (e.g., Internet Group Services), there is no additional

                  charge for Software releases or updates covered by such
                  charges that Gilat may incorporate into its shared hub
                  services to StarBand.

         (d)      All intellectual property rights subsisting in or related to
                  the Equipment and Software and/or Transition Services,
                  including but not limited to patents and other know-how and
                  copyright, both registered and unregistered, owned and/or
                  otherwise used by Gilat and all goodwill related thereto
                  (collectively the "IP Rights") are and shall remain at all
                  times the exclusive property of Gilat or, as the case may be,
                  its vendors and/or licensors. StarBand shall not have or
                  acquire any right, title or interest in or otherwise become
                  entitled to any IP Rights by taking delivery of, making
                  payment for, distributing and/or selling or otherwise using or
                  transferring the Equipment, Software or Transition Services,
                  other than such rights granted in this Agreement.

4.       Telecommunications Services.

         (a)      The parties will negotiate in good faith the compensation and
                  reimbursement to Gilat for its contribution to the StarBand 1
                  and StarBand 2 satellites.

         (b)      Without limiting 4(a) above, StarBand and Spacenet have
                  entered into a telecommunications service agreement dated as
                  of February 15, 2000, (the "Telecommunication Services
                  Agreement") pursuant to which Spacenet provides StarBand with
                  telecommunication facilities and services necessary to provide
                  satellite communication services. That agreement which is
                  attached hereto as Attachment I, and the terms and conditions
                  of such agreement are incorporated herein by reference. In the
                  event that the Telecommunications Services Agreement is not
                  renewed in accordance with its terms because MSN does not
                  exercise the option to renew the agreement, Spacenet and
                  StarBand hereby agree that the Telecommunications Services
                  Agreement shall be extended automatically for the term of this
                  Agreement unless otherwise agreed, except that (i) with
                  respect to space segment, StarBand shall continue to be
                  responsible for space segment contracted for StarBand under
                  the Telecommunications Services Agreement (including but not
                  limited to GE4), and (ii) with respect to FCC licensing, the
                  Telecommunications Services Agreement shall continue until the
                  FCC licenses pursuant to which Spacenet provides service to
                  StarBand are assigned to or otherwise acquired by StarBand for
                  the provision by StarBand of such services, after obtaining
                  FCC consent. To the extent that the terms and conditions of
                  the Telecommunications Services Agreement and this Agreement
                  are inconsistent, the terms and conditions of the
                  Telecommunications Services Agreement shall prevail with
                  respect to the operation of any FCC licensed facilities used
                  by Spacenet to provide telecommunications services to
                  StarBand.

         (c)      Preservation of Spacenet's Control. StarBand hereby recognizes
                  and acknowledges that Spacenet holds licenses issued by the
                  Federal Communications Commission covering certain equipment
                  and facilities located at Spacenet's facilities in McLean,
                  Virginia, and Marietta, Georgia, which are used by Spacenet
                  for the provision of telecommunications services to StarBand.
                  Under the terms of

                                  CONFIDENTIAL

                  Spacenet's FCC licenses, Spacenet is required to retain
                  control over the operation of that equipment and facilities
                  unless prior consent is obtained from the FCC to transfer
                  control over the equipment and facilities to others, including
                  StarBand. StarBand and Spacenet hereby covenant and agree that
                  Spacenet will retain control over the equipment and facilities
                  licensed by the FCC to Spacenet during the term of this
                  Agreement and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to
                  give StarBand any control over that equipment or facilities,
                  unless and until prior FCC consent is obtained to transfer
                  control of the licensed equipment and facilities to StarBand.

5.       Exclusivity/Non-Compete.

         (a)      Spacenet and Gilat agree that StarBand has exclusive rights,
                  as defined by the terms of the non-compete provisions set
                  forth in Attachment G hereto.

         (b)      Spacenet and Gilat undertake to use their best commercially
                  reasonable efforts to maintain price competitiveness of the
                  Equipment it sells to StarBand in the StarBand marketplace.
                  StarBand undertakes to purchase the G/S Products & Services
                  and any equipment and services performing similar
                  functionality in the future, solely from Gilat and Spacenet
                  (or third parties identified by either of them), provided that
                  Gilat complies with the Most Favored Nation provisions in
                  paragraph 20 hereof and the non-compete provisions detailed in
                  Attachment G hereof.

6.       Research and Development.

         (a)      Gilat agrees to be responsible for all research and
                  development costs related to the ongoing development of the
                  Skystar Advantage and the SkyBlaster products. Agreements
                  relating to future products or modification to the existing
                  Skystar Advantage and SkyBlaster products which support
                  StarBand's projects may be entered into in the future between
                  Gilat and StarBand, at arms length and at rates to be mutually
                  agreed upon. For the first two years of this Agreement,
                  StarBand shall pay to Gilat [*] per calendar quarter,
                  provided that priority for research conducted using these
                  monies shall be toward modifying the product and service in
                  light of consumer experience and field feedback on the Skystar
                  Advantage and the SkyBlaster products. Gilat and StarBand will
                  consult during the first calendar quarter of each year to
                  discuss the planned research projects and associated budgets
                  for the next two years.

         (b)      Beginning on January 1, 2001, StarBand agrees to share with
                  Gilat the cost of the product development focused exclusively
                  on reducing the cost to manufacture the USB boxes which are
                  being provided by Gilat to StarBand hereunder. Gilat and
                  StarBand agree to discuss further the specific details of this
                  research, the total cost of the research, the relative share
                  of that cost that each party will bear, and the manner in
                  which the benefits from that research will be shared between
                  them.

<PAGE>   9

         (a)      Attachment C describes the Transition Services to be provided
                  under this Agreement, including, without limitation, name of
                  service, pricing, and scope of service.

         (b)      Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or unless
                  otherwise terminated pursuant to the terms detailed in
                  Attachment C, Gilat and/or Spacenet, as applicable, shall
                  provide or cause to be provided each of the Transition
                  Services beginning on the Effective Date or the date indicated
                  in Attachment C and continuing through to the expiration of
                  the Transition Services Term, as such term is defined in
                  Section 9(b) below, unless otherwise terminated pursuant to
                  the terms detailed in Attachment C.

         (c)      StarBand may request Gilat and/or Spacenet, as applicable, to
                  provide additional or modified Transition Services that are
                  not described in Attachment C. Gilat and/or Spacenet, as
                  applicable, will use commercially reasonable efforts to
                  accommodate any reasonable requests by StarBand to provide
                  additional or modified Transition Services. In order to
                  initiate a request for additional or modified Transition
                  Services, StarBand shall submit a request in writing to Gilat
                  and/or Spacenet specifying the nature of the additional or
                  modified Transition Services and requesting a cost estimate
                  and time frame for completion. Gilat and/or Spacenet shall
                  respond within ten (10) days to such written request. Only if
                  StarBand accepts Gilat's and/or Spacenet's offer to provide
                  the additional or modified Transition Services, will such
                  additional or modified Transition Services be provided
                  hereunder and according to the terms agreed to by the parties
                  in writing.

         (d)      From the Effective Date forward, the parties will use
                  commercially reasonable efforts to work together and begin the
                  process of migrating the Transition Services from Gilat and/or
                  Spacenet to StarBand such that the completion of the migration
                  of the Transition Services shall occur as soon as reasonably
                  practicable.

8.       Transitional Cooperation.

         (a)      StarBand, Gilat and Spacenet will cooperate to assure an
                  orderly and efficient Transition. Each party shall make
                  available, as reasonably requested by the other party,
                  sufficient resources and timely decisions, approvals and
                  acceptances, in order that each party may perform its
                  obligations under this Agreement in a timely and efficient
                  manner.

         (b)      So long as any Transition Services are being provided under
                  this Agreement and thereafter, Gilat and/or Spacenet will
                  provide StarBand with copies of all then existing files,
                  records and operational data relating to such Transition
                  Services as may be reasonably requested by StarBand (including
                  third party expenses separately charged to StarBand), and such
                  other information as may be reasonably requested by StarBand,
                  including reasonable access to such employees of Gilat and/or
                  Spacenet having knowledge of such Transition Services.

<PAGE>   10

         (c)      If the provision of a Transition Service in whole or in part
                  requires the consent of a third party to the assignment of any
                  license or other agreement, Gilat and/or Spacenet shall use
                  best commercial efforts to obtain such consent. If Gilat
                  and/or Spacenet are unable to obtain any such consent after
                  using best commercial efforts, then the parties will agree
                  upon a commercially reasonable alternative that next best
                  approximates such Transition Service.

         (d)      If requested by StarBand in connection with the Transition,
                  Gilat and/or Spacenet shall use best commercial efforts to
                  assist StarBand in its efforts to enter into a license or
                  other agreement with any third party with whom Gilat and/or
                  Spacenet and any of their affiliates have a commercial
                  relationship.

         (e)      Each party shall appoint a person for the purpose of
                  coordinating the Transition and the provision of the
                  Transition Services. The initial representatives of the
                  parties are the persons set forth on Attachment E.

9.       Term.

         (a)      This Agreement shall become effective upon and the term shall
                  commence at the Effective Date and shall terminate four (4)
                  years thereafter (the "Term"), and shall automatically renew
                  for additional two (2) year terms for as long as the terms of
                  paragraph 20 regarding Most Favored Nation and paragraph 5 and
                  Attachment G regarding exclusivity are complied with, or such
                  extended term as mutually agreed to by the parties in writing.
                  The pricing provisions related to the provision of G/S
                  Products & Services hereunder shall be renegotiated in good
                  faith between the parties every two years, and such
                  renegotiated pricing provisions shall be attached hereto and
                  become a part hereof. If the parties fail to agree to new
                  prices, then the current prices will remain in effect until
                  the parties reach agreement on new pricing.

         (b)      With respect only to the Transition Services described in
                  Attachment C to be provided by Gilat and/or Spacenet, the term
                  for the provision of the Transition Services shall be two (2)
                  years from the Effective Date (the "Transition Services
                  Term"), or such later date as mutually agreed to by the
                  parties in writing.

10.      Charges and Payment.

         (a)      Gilat shall ship Equipment to StarBand in material compliance
                  with confirmed delivery dates in order to achieve a consistent
                  supply of product over each calendar quarter. All payments
                  made under this Agreement shall be in U.S. Dollars. The prices
                  for the G/S Products & Services provided hereunder are set
                  forth in Attachment A. Except as otherwise provided herein,
                  all payments for Equipment and services and all other items
                  delivered or otherwise provided under the terms of this
                  Agreement in any calendar quarter are due and payable no later
                  than one (1) business day prior to the end of the quarter in
                  which the Equipment, services, or other items were delivered,
                  provided that StarBand receives necessary documentation (e.g.,
                  invoice, packing list, freight documents) at least five (5)

                                  CONFIDENTIAL
                                       7
<PAGE>   11

                  business days before the date on which payment is due.
                  StarBand shall not be responsible for payment of
                  non-conforming product (that is, product that does not meet
                  the then applicable product performance specifications set
                  forth in Attachment H). For non-conforming product on which
                  StarBand has already made payment, StarBand shall offset the
                  price of that product against current accounts payable.

         (b)      The terms of sale for all shipments from Gilat shall be FOB
                  Israel, U.S. duty paid and from Spacenet, Ex factory. For
                  shipments from Gilat, StarBand will be responsible only for
                  the cost of freight for the item as though it were shipped
                  from Israel to the United States, plus associated insurance
                  and U.S. customs brokerage expenses. Gilat (or its agent)
                  shall act as U.S. importer of record for all imports and shall
                  be responsible for all charges in addition to the freight,
                  insurance, and brokerage amounts to be paid by StarBand.
                  Should any products subject to this Agreement become subject
                  to U.S. import duties, Gilat and StarBand agree to share such
                  duties equally, provided that StarBand will in no event be
                  responsible for any antidumping or countervailing duties (or
                  deposits thereof) that might be imposed on such products.

         (c)      Payments to Gilat or Spacenet, as the case may be, for
                  Transition Services provided under Attachment C hereto for
                  Transition Services provided during the calendar quarter
                  beginning July 1, 2000, and payments for the ERP system and
                  one-time charges described in Attachment D hereto shall be
                  made in three equal monthly installments due on the last
                  business day of October, November and December 2000.

         (f)      Product Warranty

                  (i)      During the Warranty Period, the Equipment and
                           Software shall be in compliance in all material

                           workmanship and materials. "Warranty Period" means:
                           (A) for the hub and server Equipment and all
                           Equipment and Software delivered therewith and
                           installed in accordance with the provisions hereof,
                           from the time of delivery to StarBand and for a
                           period of twelve (12) months from the later of the
                           purchase or the date of commissioning of such hub and

                           which StarBand purchases such optional hub operations
                           services from Gilat or Spacenet; and (C) for all
                           other Equipment and Software, from the time of
                           installation and for a period of twelve (12) months
                           thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Gilat
                           and/or Spacenet do not warrant that the Software will
                           be error free or uninterrupted in its use or
                           operation.

                           Thereafter, StarBand may purchase at its option an
                           extended full warranty at an annual cost equal to
                           [*] of the purchase price for all Equipment subject
                           to such extended warranty. Under this product
                           warranty, Gilat will be responsible for the cost of
                           any replacement parts and associated labor, overhead
                           and related expenses. After the above product
                           warranty periods have elapsed, Gilat will sell
                           replacement parts to StarBand for a period of seven
                           (7) years from StarBand's last purchase of particular
                           products at prices equal to the then current USB box
                           price, multiplied by [*] for the ODU, [*] for the USB
                           Indoor Unit, [*] for the LNBs, and [*] for the
                           antenna/mount system. Gilat reserves the right to
                           provide notice that a particular part will be
                           discontinued and to establish a time limit for all
                           future orders of such part.

                  (ii)     A)       Under this product warranty, Gilat shall, at
                                    its sole option and expense, repair or
                                    replace any Equipment and/or Software found
                                    to be defective during the Warranty Period
                                    and returned to Gilat's premises at
                                    StarBand's expense. Return of the repaired
                                    or replaced Equipment or Software to
                                    StarBand's or its affiliates' original
                                    destination shall be at the expense of
                                    Gilat, unless Gilat determines that the
                                    Equipment and/or Software is not defective
                                    within the terms of the warranty, in which
                                    event StarBand shall pay Gilat all costs of
                                    handling, transportation and labor at
                                    Gilat's then prevailing rates.

                           B)       Under this product warranty, for Software,
                                    if an error in the Software precludes the
                                    Equipment from being in material compliance
                                    with the then applicable specifications,
                                    Gilat and/or Spacenet, as the case may be,
                                    will use its commercial best efforts to
                                    supply a workaround, program temporary fix
                                    or update. The price for extended
                                    maintenance on Software shall be the monthly
                                    per site charge as set forth in Attachment
                                    A.

                  (iii)    Limitation on Warranties. This product warranty and
                           StarBand's remedies hereunder are solely for the
                           benefit of StarBand and shall not be extended to any

12.      Confidential Information.

         As used in this Agreement, the term "Confidential Information" means
         any information of a party disclosed by one party to another (the
         "Receiving Party") pursuant to this Agreement which is in written or
         other tangible form (including on magnetic media) or by oral, visual or
         other means, which is because of legends or other markings, the
         circumstances of disclosure or the nature of the information itself
         deemed to be proprietary and confidential, including without limitation
         this Agreement itself. Each party recognizes the importance of the
         Confidential Information. Accordingly, each party agrees as follows:

         (a)      The Receiving Party agrees (i) to protect such Confidential
                  Information from disclosure to others, using the same degree
                  of care used to protect its own confidential or proprietary
                  information of like importance, but in any case using no less
                  than a reasonable degree of care, (ii) not to disclose except
                  as specifically permitted hereunder any of the Confidential
                  Information or any information derived therefrom to any third
                  person except to its affiliates, agents, contractors and
                  financing parties under a confidentiality obligation to the
                  Receiving Party, and (iii) not to make any use whatsoever at
                  any time of such Confidential Information except as expressly
                  authorized in this Agreement or as reasonably necessary for
                  the purposes of running their respective businesses. Subject
                  to restrictions on disseminating Confidential Information to
                  third parties contained in this Agreement, any affiliate,
                  employee, agent, contractor or financing party given access to
                  any such Confidential Information must have a legitimate "need
                  to know" and will be similarly bound to the Receiving Party in
                  writing (including without limitation pursuant to a
                  pre-existing agreement). The Receiving Party shall be
                  responsible to the disclosing party with respect to any breach
                  of the provisions of this section caused by any such third
                  parties provided access to Confidential Information by the
                  Receiving Party. Without granting any right or license, the
                  parties agree that the foregoing will not apply with respect
                  to information the Receiving Party can document (i) is in or
                  (through no improper action or inaction by the Receiving Party
                  or any affiliate, agent or employee of the Receiving Party)
                  enters the public domain, or (ii) was in its possession or
                  known by it prior to receipt from the disclosing party, or
                  (iii) was rightfully disclosed to it by another person without
                  restriction, or (iv) was developed independently by it without
                  use of the Confidential Information. The Parties recognize
                  that service providers (employees, consultants and the like)
                  may serve multiple parties hereto simultaneously and hereby
                  agree that disclosure to or from such service providers shall
                  not affect the obligations of confidentiality to the party
                  whose information is disclosed.

         (b)      Immediately upon termination of this Agreement, the Receiving
                  Party will return or, at the disclosing party's direction,
                  destroy or erase and certify the destruction

                  or erasure of all Confidential Information and all documents
                  containing any such Confidential Information and all copies
                  and extracts of the portions of such Confidential Information
                  (regardless of the media on which the Confidential Information
                  is stored).

         (c)      Either party may disclose the other's Confidential Information
                  as required by law, regulation or applicable stock exchange
                  rules; provided however, that such party will provide the
                  other party as much notice as reasonably possible under the
                  circumstances of such disclosure and the opportunity to
                  contest such disclosure.

         (d)      Each Receiving Party acknowledges and agrees that due to the
                  unique nature of the Confidential Information, there may be no
                  adequate remedy at law for breach of the obligations
                  hereunder. Therefore upon any such breach or any threat of
                  such breach, the disclosing party may be entitled to
                  appropriate equitable relief in addition to whatever remedies
                  it might have at law and under this Agreement.

         (e)      Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
                  provisions of this Section 12 shall survive for a period of
                  five (5) years following the expiration or termination of this
                  Agreement.

13.      Dispute Resolution.

         (a)      Each party shall designate an individual as its project
                  manager with the right and responsibility to represent such
                  party with regard to the day to day management of such party's
                  performance of the terms of this Agreement ("Project
                  Manager").

         (b)      Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the
                  contrary, the following procedure shall be adhered to in all
                  disputes arising under or relating to this Agreement, other
                  than disputes arising under section 15(a) that the parties
                  cannot resolve informally (the "Dispute").

                  (i)      Any party may initiate this dispute resolution
                           process by giving another party's Project Manager
                           written notice of the Dispute. The Project Managers
                           of the parties shall thereafter have a reasonable
                           period of time to resolve the Dispute, but in no
                           event longer than ten (10) days after delivery of the
                           written notice described in this section 13(b)(i).
                           All attempts at resolution shall be conducted in good
                           faith and in no event shall the Project Managers
                           waive attempts at such resolution.

                  (ii)     In the event the Project Managers are unable to
                           resolve a Dispute submitted to dispute resolution in
                           accordance with subsection (i) above, either party
                           may elect in writing, within five (5) days after
                           expiration of the ten (10) day period described in
                           (i) above, to refer the Dispute to appropriate senior
                           executive officers (Vice President or above) of the
                           parties having responsibility over such matters
                           ("Executive Officers"). The Executive Officers shall
                           thereafter have a reasonable period of time to
                           resolve the Dispute, but in no event longer than ten
                           (10) days following

                                  CONFIDENTIAL

                           the written referral to them of the Dispute. All
                           attempts at resolution shall be conducted in good
                           faith and in no event shall the Executive Officers
                           waive attempts at such resolution.

                  (iii)    If the Project Managers are unable to resolve the
                           Dispute as described above, but neither party refers
                           the Dispute to the Executive Officers within the
                           indicated deadline, the relevant Dispute shall be
                           deemed withdrawn, but not waived. In order to
                           reestablish the claim, the claiming party will be
                           required to reinitiate the Dispute under section
                           13(b)(i).

                  (iv)     If, at any time following the procedures of section
                           13(a)(i), and if relevant, Section 13(a)(ii), the
                           Project Manager or the Executive Officer for one
                           Party notifies one or more other parties in writing
                           that a Dispute considered under this section
                           constitutes a material breach of the terms and
                           conditions of this Agreement, pursuant to section
                           15(b)(ii) hereof, the ninety (90) day cure period
                           provided in section 15(b)(ii), or any applicable cure
                           or notice period with respect to such breach, will be
                           considered to commence as of the date of such notice.

                  (v)      Any notices delivered in accordance with the
                           procedures set out above shall not be deemed
                           effective until delivered to and received by the
                           receiving party in accordance with the notice
                           provisions of Section 14 hereof.

         (a)      If any party becomes or is declared insolvent or bankrupt, is
                  the subject of any proceedings related to its liquidation,
                  insolvency or for the appointment of a receiver or similar
                  officer for it, makes an assignment for the benefit of all or
                  substantially all of its creditors, or enters into an
                  agreement for the composition, extension, or readjustment of
                  all or substantially all of its obligations, any other party
                  may, by giving thirty (30) days written notice thereof to the
                  affected party, terminate this Agreement without liability or
                  obligation, in whole or in part, as of a date specified in
                  such notice of termination.

         (b)      Any party may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days
                  prior written notice to any other in the event of one of the
                  following:

                  (i)      A party's failure to pay any amounts due hereunder
                           that are not duly contested in good faith within
                           thirty (30) days after receipt of the terminating
                           party's written notice of default concerning the
                           same; or

                  (ii)     A party's failure to cure a material breach within
                           ninety (90) days after receipt of the terminating
                           party's written notice of default concerning the
                           same. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a material
                           breach is not able to be cured within such ninety
                           (90) days, the parties may agree to extend such
                           timeframe.

         (c)      With respect to breaches or defaults giving rise to a right to
                  terminate this Agreement, other than pursuant to section
                  15(a), the dispute resolution procedures of section 13(b)
                  shall be applicable. Any such right of termination shall be
                  suspended until (b) dispute resolution process in section
                  13(b) is completed or until the alleged breaching party has
                  had an opportunity to seek judicial intervention prior to the
                  end of any applicable cure period in a notice given under
                  section 13(b)(iv).

         (d)      The remedies provided under this section 15 are not exclusive
                  of any other rights or remedies under law or equity to which
                  either party may be entitled to with respect to any breach or
                  failure by the other party.

         (e)      Transition Period. If this Agreement (including any extension
                  terms) expires by its own terms under section 9(a), or if any
                  party terminates this Agreement prior to the end of the
                  applicable term hereof, except for termination pursuant to
                  Section 15(b)(i) hereto, the parties will reasonably cooperate
                  with one another to facilitate an effective transition to
                  commercially reasonable alternatives as follows:

                  (i)      Gilat and Spacenet will fill outstanding purchase
                           orders for a period of no less than eighteen (18)
                           months from the date of termination at the expiration
                           of the term or for termination for reasons other than
                           failure to pay timely;

                           and subscribers with regular Software updates and
                           telecommunications facilities and services pursuant
                           to the Telecommunications Services Agreement (to the
                           extent such agreement remains in effect at the time
                           of termination) for three (3) years following
                           termination subject to payment of any applicable fees
                           therefor as set forth in this Agreement or in the
                           Telecommunications Services Agreement;

                  (iii)    Gilat's product warranty and warranty parts
                           obligations set forth in section 11 shall survive any
                           such expiration or termination.

16.      Limitation of Liability and Indemnification.

         (a)      Except as further limited by section 11(f) hereto, the sole
                  and exclusive remedy at law (other than with respect to claims
                  involving misrepresentation or fraud) for any claim (whether
                  such claim is based in tort, contract or otherwise) arising
                  out of a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or
                  agreement in or pursuant to this Agreement shall be a claim
                  for actual damages, which claims are independent of and in
                  addition to any equitable rights or remedies. No party shall
                  be liable in any case to any other party for indirect,
                  consequential, punitive, special or other similar damages
                  arising out of or relating to this Agreement. No party shall
                  be liable for direct damages in excess of (i) as to a claim
                  related to Equipment and Software, the total amount of the
                  purchase order under which the Equipment or Software that is
                  the subject matter of the claim was purchased by StarBand, or;
                  (ii) as to any other claim brought hereunder, [*]; except that
                  for claims covered by the indemnification obligations provided
                  in this Agreement regarding third party claims (such third
                  party claims to include claims asserted by the respective
                  parties' employees, as third parties), such liability limits
                  shall not apply.

         (b)      Gilat and/or Spacenet shall, at their sole expense, defend,
                  indemnify, and hold StarBand harmless from and against all
                  costs, expenses and liabilities in connection with any claim,
                  suit or action for infringement of any intellectual property
                  rights, including patent, copyright, or trade secret rights
                  which arise from any of the products or services provided by
                  Gilat and/or Spacenet under this Agreement, including but not
                  limited to the currently pending Hughes claim.

         (c)      Should the G/S Products & Services or any component thereof
                  that may be provided by Gilat and/or Spacenet under this
                  Agreement become, or in Gilat's or Spacenet's, as applicable,
                  opinion be likely to become, the subject of a claim of
                  infringement of any intellectual property rights, Gilat and/or
                  Spacenet, as applicable, may exercise any of the following
                  options at their sole expense: (i) procure for StarBand the
                  right to continue using the G/S Products & Services, (ii)
                  replace the same with comparable alternatives; (iii) modify
                  the same so as to be non-infringing; and/or (iv) compensate
                  StarBand for the full purchase price of the impacted G/S
                  Products & Services.

         (d)      StarBand agrees that Gilat's and/or Spacenet's liability for
                  intellectual property infringement shall not apply to any
                  claim, suit or action for infringement which may be brought
                  against StarBand to the extent due to: (i) StarBand's
                  modification of the G/S Products & Services or any parts
                  thereof or StarBand's modification of the Software or any
                  software associated therewith; or (ii) use of the G/S Products
                  & Services or Transition Services with any device, software or
                  services added by StarBand. StarBand further agrees that it
                  will indemnify Gilat and/or Spacenet on the same terms as
                  Gilat and/or Spacenet is obligated to indemnify StarBand
                  pursuant to this section, should any claim of infringement be
                  made against Gilat and/or Spacenet to the extent caused by
                  StarBand's modifications or use as aforesaid. StarBand,
                  however, shall not be liable for any such modifications that
                  are made at the instruction of Gilat or Spacenet.

         (e)      StarBand hereby indemnifies Gilat and/or Spacenet, as the case
                  may be, and shall indemnify and save Gilat and/or Spacenet
                  harmless from and against injuries, loss and/or damage to
                  Gilat's and/or Spacenet's employees and/or their tangible
                  personal property and/or to the person or tangible personal
                  property of third parties to the extent caused by the willful
                  or negligent acts or omissions of StarBand.

         (f)      Gilat and/or Spacenet, as the case may be, hereby indemnifies
                  and shall indemnify and save StarBand harmless from and
                  against injuries, loss, or and/or damage to StarBand's
                  employees and/or its tangible personal property and/or to the
                  person or tangible personal property of third parties to the
                  extent caused by the willful or negligent acts or omissions of
                  Gilat and/or Spacenet.

         (g)      It is understood and agreed by StarBand that under this
                  Agreement, Gilat and/or Spacenet is providing the G/S Products
                  & Services for purposes determined by StarBand. StarBand
                  recognizes that Gilat and/or Spacenet, as the case may be,
                  does not control the manner in which StarBand uses the G/S
                  Products & Services, the access by others to the data or other
                  content transmitted over the StarBand network or the content
                  of the communications that StarBand transmits and receives
                  over its network. Without limiting the terms of Attachment F
                  hereto regarding Internet connectivity service, StarBand
                  therefore agrees to indemnify and hold Gilat and/or Spacenet,
                  as the case may be, and Gilat's and/or Spacenet's officers,
                  directors, and employees harmless from and against any and all
                  claims for direct damages, expenses, and losses (including
                  reasonable attorney's fees) to the extent arising out of or in
                  connection with (a) the use to which StarBand elects to put
                  the G/S Products & Services; or (b) the content of the
                  communications that StarBand or its customers place over the
                  G/S Products & Services.

         (h)      A party which is seeking indemnification hereunder shall
                  notify the indemnifying party in reasonable detail of the
                  event(s) giving rise to such claim for indemnification within
                  fifteen (15) business days after the indemnified party has
                  actual knowledge of such event(s). The indemnifying party
                  shall not have any liability to the indemnified party to the
                  extent that it is materially prejudiced as a

                  result of any delay in notification by the indemnified party
                  nor shall the indemnifying party be responsible for any
                  additional loss incurred by the indemnified party due to such
                  delay by the indemnified party. The indemnifying party shall
                  have the right to undertake the defense of any claim upon
                  delivery of notice to the indemnified party with respect to
                  such claim. Such defense shall be made with counsel reasonably
                  acceptable to the indemnified party. If the indemnifying party
                  fails to undertake the defense of the indemnified party within
                  such time period, the indemnified party may retain its own
                  counsel for such defense (which shall be reasonably acceptable
                  to the indemnifying party), and the indemnified party's
                  reasonable attorney's fees and expenses related to such claim
                  shall be paid by the indemnifying party. No party shall,
                  without the consent of the other party or parties, agree to
                  any non-monetary settlement of the indemnified claim.

         (i)      Nothing in this section 16 shall limit or in any way derogate
                  from the terms and provisions of Attachment F hereto as
                  applied to Internet connectivity service.

17.      Governing Law; Jurisdiction.

         This Agreement, including all matters relating to the validity,
         construction, performance and enforcement hereof, shall be governed by
         the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without giving reference to
         its principles of conflicts of laws. Each of the parties hereto
         irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal court
         in the Commonwealth of Virginia, or, to the extent federal jurisdiction
         is not available, any state court in the Commonwealth of Virginia, in
         respect of any action arising out of or based upon this Agreement and
         irrevocably waives any objections which it may now or hereafter have to
         the laying of venue of any such action in any such court.

18.      Assignment.

         This Agreement will be binding on and inure to the benefit of the
         parties and their permitted successors and assigns. None of the parties
         to this Agreement may assign, transfer or convey any right, obligation
         or duty, in whole or in part, or of any other interest under this
         Agreement, without the prior written consent of the other relevant
         parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no consent shall be required in
         the case of an assignment by a party to an affiliate or subsidiary of
         such party.

19.      Waiver of Compliance.

         Other than sections 13(b)(i) or 13(b)(ii), any term or condition of
         this Agreement may be waived at any time by the party that is entitled
         to the benefit thereof, but no such waiver shall be effective unless
         set forth in a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of the
         party waiving such term or condition. No waiver by any party of any
         term or condition of this Agreement, in any one or more instances,
         shall be deemed to be or construed as a waiver of the same or any other
         term or condition of this Agreement on any future occasion. All
         remedies, either under this Agreement or by law or otherwise afforded,
         will be cumulative and not alternative.

20.      Most Favored Nation.

         The parties hereto represent that this Agreement contains, and shall
         hereafter contain, rates and terms no less favorable than the best
         terms offered on the Equipment, Software and StarBand Products offered
         hereunder to other similarly situated customers. If there is no
         similarly situated customer as described above, the parties shall
         provide such products on commercially reasonable terms in the context
         of the transactions contemplated hereunder. For these purposes, the
         Most Favored Nation concept refers to prices no higher than those
         charged by Gilat or StarBand (as the case may be) for comparable
         products and services sold in comparable quantities on comparable terms
         and conditions to other customers in bona fide offers or sales.

21.      Export Restrictions.

         StarBand agrees that it shall not export, re-export, resell, ship or
         divert the Equipment or Software directly or indirectly to any country
         for which a U.S. or other export license is required without first
         receiving confirmation that the U.S. Department of Commerce and other
         relevant authorities have approved or licensed, if required, such
         export, re-export, resale, shipment or diversion.

22.      Force Majeure.

         Unless specified otherwise, any delay in or failure of performance by
         any party under this Agreement shall not be considered a breach of this
         Agreement if and to the extent caused by events beyond the reasonable
         control of the party affected, including but not limited to acts of
         God, embargoes, governmental restrictions, strikes, riots, wars or
         other military action, civil disorders, rebellion, vandalism, or
         sabotage. The party whose performance is affected by such events shall
         promptly notify the other parties giving details of the force majeure
         circumstances, and the obligations of the party giving such notice
         shall be suspended during but not longer than the continuance of the
         force majeure, and the time for performance of the affected obligation
         hereunder shall be extended by the time of the delay caused by the
         force majeure event.

23.      Verification.

         Each party shall have the right to request on fifteen (15) days notice
         that a third party certified public accountant acceptable to Gilat,
         Spacenet and StarBand, but paid for by the party making the request,
         conduct an audit of the relevant records of another party to verify
         compliance with this Agreement or any portion thereof. The subject
         matters of such an audit may include, but are not necessarily limited
         to, capacity, price, cost, and related issues, but only to the extent
         this Agreement provides (expressly or by reasonable implication) that
         such matters are subject to verification by another party hereto.

24.      Entire Agreement; Amendments.

         This Agreement and any specified provisions of documents incorporated
         by reference contains the entire agreement between the parties with
         respect to the transactions

                                  CONFIDENTIAL

         contemplated hereunder, and supersede all prior arrangements or
         understandings with respect thereto, written or oral. Once this
         Agreement has been executed, any amendments hereto must be made in
         writing and signed by all parties.

25.      Survival.

         The relevant rights and obligations of the parties shall survive the
         termination of this Agreement.

26.      Severability.

         In the event that any portion of this Agreement is held to be
         unenforceable, the unenforceable portion shall be construed in
         accordance with applicable law as nearly as possible to reflect the
         original intentions of the parties and the remainder of the provisions
         shall remain in full force and effect.

27.      Counterparts.

         This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of
         which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall
         constitute one and the same instrument.

28.      Headings.

         The headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience
         only and shall not constitute a part hereof.

         **Upgrade feature: Gilat agrees to upgrade, at StarBand's option, the
         IDU used by each StarBand customer with installed SSA Equipment. Upon
         StarBand's request for an upgrade, Gilat will provide by an agreed upon
         date a USB box to replace the SSA indoor unit and self installation
         instructions, for payment by StarBand of $[*] per unit, unless the
         customer ships the original SSA indoor unit (in good condition, normal

         exceed $[*] per unit) within twelve (12) months of the customer's
         receipt of the USB box. If Spacenet resells the returned units for a

         in good faith whether and to what extent the excess amount will be
         shared between the two companies. Upon completion of the upgrade

         facilitating the ordering of G/S Products & Services under this
         Agreement, and for providing a purchase order number for StarBand's
         accounting purposes. StarBand agrees that, notwithstanding any
         statements to the contrary on StarBand's purchase order or other
         documents, the provision of G/S Products & Services as contemplated in
         this Agreement shall be governed solely by the terms and conditions of

SITE INSTALLATIONS (FOR RETAILERS ONLY)

A.       Standard Installation. A standard installation includes the delivery
         and installation of the Equipment set forth above, and includes one (1)
         wall penetration for the IFL cable run. The installation process
         consists of VSAT assembly, installing and pointing the VSAT antenna,
         installing the IFL cable, and installing and connecting the indoor and
         outdoor electronics. Other required efforts, such as the installation
         of cable conduits, trenching, or non-standard antenna mounts, are
         outside the scope of a standard installation and subject to quotation.

B.       Spacenet Responsibilities. As part of the Standard Installation,
         Spacenet or its agents will:

         -        Obtain all licenses, permits, approvals, authorizations and
                  clearances required by the FCC for the operation of the
                  Equipment.
         -        Render reasonable assistance by telephone to support
                  StarBand's efforts to secure landlord approvals at each Site.

C.       StarBand Responsibilities.  At each Site, StarBand or its agents will:

         -        Designate one individual that is authorized to make decisions
                  relating to the installation of the Equipment at each Site and
                  to interface with Spacenet during installation.
         -        Obtain any landlord approvals required for each Site.
         -        Obtain any required building permits, zoning permits, and/or
                  zoning variances.
         -        Pay Spacenet, on a time and materials basis, if Spacenet
                  attends zoning hearings or other public meetings in order to
                  obtain a building or zoning permit or zoning variance.
         -        If requested by Spacenet, provide building construction
                  drawings for each Site type to Spacenet's installation manager
                  at least thirty days prior to scheduled commencement of
                  installation.
         -        Provide a suitable secure area for installation of the antenna
                  and all outdoor and indoor electronics associated with the
                  Equipment.
         -        Provide electrical supply, data interface cables, and
                  environmental conditioning requirements as may be required in
                  order to meet Spacenet-provided specifications and local
                  building department codes. Electrical supply requirements
                  include a 120 volt single phase electrical power receptacle
                  within 5 feet of the Indoor Unit location, preferably with a
                  separate 15-Amp circuit breaker; and if antenna de-icing is
                  provided, an additional 120 volt single phase electrical power
                  receptacle within 5 feet of the antenna with a separate 15-Amp
                  circuit breaker. The Indoor Unit portion of the VSAT system
                  shall be located in an area suitable for a personal computer,
                  in a clear space, 18"D x 20"W x 10"H, adequately ventilated to
                  provide air circulation about the unit (preferably
                  air-conditioned) and to be free of excessive dust or dirt.
         -        Subject to StarBand's security policies and procedures,
                  provide Spacenet or its agents with access and egress to the
                  Site and indoor communications equipment location at all
                  reasonable times for installation and maintenance of the
                  Equipment.

         -        Pay for any special conveyances (e.g. crane), services, or
                  facilities for transporting Equipment (e.g., the VSAT antenna)
                  and any materials that cannot be manually conveyed to the
                  point of installation.
         -        Arrange and pay for union labor if the local jurisdiction
                  requires labor union members to perform or supervise the VSAT
                  installation.

D.       Scheduling Installations.

         -        For all installations under this Agreement, Spacenet and
                  StarBand shall agree to a mutually acceptable and
                  geographically efficient Site installation schedule. Spacenet
                  shall plan the specific installation schedule and routing of
                  the installations.
         -        There will be no Site survey charge applicable if the Spacenet
                  installer is able to perform an installation on his first
                  visit using one of the standard antenna mounts. Upon arrival
                  of the Spacenet installers at a Site, if it is determined that
                  one of the standard antenna mounts cannot be used, or if the
                  Site is determined to be non-Standard for other reasons, a
                  Site survey will be performed at that time instead of the
                  installation activity for the price specified above, and the
                  installation will be rescheduled to include the non-standard
                  Equipment and installation activities, subject to StarBand's
                  approval of Spacenet's quotation for any non-standard items or
                  services.
         -        An Aborted Site Installation charge will be paid if StarBand
                  fails to grant Spacenet access to a site on the scheduled
                  installation date, or if the site is not ready for a VSAT
                  installation on the scheduled install date (e.g., site under
                  construction, no A/C power, etc.)

           OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE (FOR RETAILERS ONLY ) - OPTIONAL

SITE MAINTENANCE

A.       Maintenance Definitions. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof,
         Spacenet shall provide maintenance support for all Equipment provided
         as part of this Agreement. Such maintenance shall consist of:

         -        Equipment maintenance which includes travel to and from the
                  Site and technical trouble-shooting to isolate any problems;
         -        On-Site repair and replacement, as required, of malfunctioning
                  Equipment;
         -        Diagnostic support of malfunctioning Equipment;
         -        Software maintenance; and
         -        Coverage during Spacenet's normal Business Hours, provided,
                  however, that if the 7x16 ("Extended") maintenance option is
                  selected, the maintenance hours shall be seven days a week
                  from 8AM - Midnight, local time. "Business Hours" means Monday
                  through Friday (excluding Seller holidays), 9:00 a.m. to 5:00
                  p.m. (local time of the serving field service center).

<PAGE>   34

         "Business Day" excludes Saturdays, Sundays and Federal, state and local
         holidays. US Federal holidays observed by Seller maintenance and
         service personnel are:

<TABLE>
<S>                                                          <C>
                  New Year's Day *                            Labor Day
                  President's Day                             Thanksgiving Day
                  Memorial Day                                The day after Thanksgiving Day
                  Independence Day *                          Christmas Day *
</TABLE>

         *If the holiday falls on a Saturday or Sunday, it will be observed on
         the nearest Friday or Monday, as observed by Federal employees.

B.       Maintenance Response Time. Spacenet will respond to maintenance calls
         or other indications of malfunction by dispatching a service technician
         to the Site to repair or replace the defective component unless the
         trouble can be otherwise corrected through remote repair. During
         Business Hours, for Sites located within 50 miles of a Spacenet field
         service center, Spacenet will use commercially reasonable efforts to
         ensure that the field service technician will arrive at the Site within
         an average of four (4) hours of dispatch. For periods other than
         Spacenet's normal Business Hours and for Sites located more than 50
         miles from a Spacenet field service center, Spacenet shall respond to
         maintenance calls on a commercially reasonable effort basis.
         Maintenance response times will be measured as the elapsed time (in
         Business Hours) from StarBand's request for a maintenance dispatch from
         the Spacenet Seller Network Management Center to arrival of the field
         service representative at the failed unit, provided that the failed
         unit is immediately accessible to the field service representative at
         the Site. The average response time will be based on results
         experienced during the prior 12-month period of operation.

C.       StarBand's Maintenance Responsibilities. StarBand shall perform "1st
         Level" maintenance support, which means that StarBand shall establish a
         clearinghouse through which Site service problems are initially
         reported (hereinafter, StarBand's "Central Trouble Reporting Point").
         As part of this 1st Level support, StarBand will perform first-line
         troubleshooting to assess whether a problem reported at a Site is due
         to Gilat and/or Spacenet-provided Equipment that needs repair, or to
         some other cause. Calls and requests to Spacenet from StarBand for
         maintenance support (i.e., for 2nd level support) shall be made only
         from StarBand's Central Trouble Reporting Point. In order for Spacenet
         to respond to maintenance calls from StarBand's Central Trouble
         Reporting Point, StarBand shall assure that an authorized
         representative shall be available at the Site to receive the Spacenet

         escort will be present, Spacenet shall not dispatch or have dispatched
         a maintenance technician until such time as StarBand can verify that a
         representative shall be available at the Site to receive the
         maintenance technician(s) and contacts Gilat/Spacenet with such
         information. Upon dispatch of a maintenance technician, if an
         authorized representative is not available at the Site to receive the
         maintenance technician(s), including security escort, if required, the
         Aborted Site Maintenance Charge shall apply.

                        ERP SYSTEM AND ONE-TIME PAYMENTS

1.       ERP: As soon as commercially possible after the Effective Date hereof,
         Spacenet will provide (by sublicense, user rights or the like) certain
         rights to StarBand (or reasonably assist StarBand in acquiring such
         rights) for the ERP infrastructure together with the Service Group
         (including all the developments to the ERP system to date) and [*]
         seats, subject to StarBand's execution of the applicable third party
         sublicenses or similar agreement governing use, as well as an indemnity
         to Spacenet and/or Gilat in the event that Spacenet and/or Gilat is
         required to indemnify the third party provider against acts or
         omissions of StarBand. Such sublicense or use rights will be pursuant
         to the terms of the software license agreement entered into between SAP
         America, Inc., ("SAP") and Spacenet Inc., effective as of September 10,
         1999, or other applicable license. StarBand will pay Spacenet or Gilat,
         as the case may be, [*] for such sublicense or use rights, which shall
         be accounted for as follows: [*] for the ERP sublicense or use rights
         for the [*] seats, [*] for the infrastructure, and [*] for a share of
         the development costs that Spacenet and Gilat have incurred throughout
         their respective companies in the process of identifying, describing,
         and designing the requirements and process for the ERP system.

         Spacenet shall use best commercial efforts to secure consent from SAP
         in order to sublicense or otherwise provide use rights as described
         above to StarBand. In the event that Spacenet is unable to secure such
         consent from SAP, Spacenet will promptly credit to StarBand the actual
         cost StarBand incurs to license [*] ERP seats from SAP, less any amount
         not yet paid by StarBand to Spacenet hereunder for such [*] seats.

         Spacenet shall retain the rights to use the ERP system for all of its
         purposes. As of July 1, 2000, the on-going operating, development and
         other costs for ERP shall be divided between Spacenet and StarBand on a
         [*] basis, respectively, the underlying assumption for this ratio is
         that Spacenet is using [*] of the ERP system. StarBand and Spacenet,
         however, will each bear the cost of hardware purchases necessary to
         operate the ERP system for their respective purposes. All rights to ERP
         developed by either Gilat, Spacenet or StarBand subsequent to the
         transfer hereunder will be made available to the other parties and
         their affiliates, as well as present and future entities operating in
         other countries that sell products and/or services for use in VSAT
         applications under the StarBand or other name, subject to the terms of
         any applicable third party contract.

2.       Set-up Costs. StarBand will pay to Gilat [*] as a one-time set-up cost
         for preparation of the business plan, product plan, training and
         personnel used to raise initial corporate capital of [*] in equity and
         debt, this item is subject to the approval of the StarBand board of
         directors. At the end of the second calendar quarter 2001, the
         co-chairmen of StarBand shall jointly review the business plan
         (including projections) in light

         of actual revenues at that time. If in the sole discretion of the
         co-chairmen, the co-chairmen mutually conclude, in light of all
         relevant circumstances, that the projections in the business plan are
         materially inconsistent with actual revenues, Gilat shall refund to
         StarBand [*].

            ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR INTERNET CONNECTIVITY

1.       Tariffs.

         Any state or federal tariffs applicable to the Internet Connectivity
         Service are incorporated into the terms herein by reference. Spacenet
         may elect or be required to file with the appropriate regulatory agency
         tariffs respecting the delivery of certain Internet Connectivity
         Service. In the event that such tariffs are filed respecting Internet
         Connectivity Service ordered by StarBand, then the terms set forth in
         the applicable tariff are incorporated herein by reference and shall
         govern Spacenet's delivery of, and StarBand's consumption or use of,
         such Internet Connectivity Service. In the event of a conflict between
         this Agreement and any such tariff, the terms of the tariff shall
         control.

2.       Regulatory or Legal Changes.

         In the event of any change in applicable law, regulation, decision,
         rule or order that materially increases the costs or other terms of
         delivery of the Internet Connectivity Service, Spacenet and StarBand
         agree to negotiate regarding the rates to be charged to StarBand to
         reflect such increase in cost and, in the event that the parties are
         unable to reach agreement respecting new rates within thirty (30) days
         after Spacenet's delivery of written notice requesting renegotiation,
         then Spacenet may pass such increased costs through to StarBand and, in
         the event Spacenet passes such costs through to StarBand, StarBand may
         terminate the Internet Connectivity Service no later than fifteen (15)
         business days after Spacenet increases the rates by providing sixty
         (60) days' prior written notice.

3.       Spacenet Facilities.

         Spacenet will use reasonable commercial efforts to provide and maintain
         the Facilities in good working order. "Facilities" shall be defined as
         any and all equipment supplied by Spacenet used to deliver Internet
         Connectivity Service, including but not limited to all terminal and
         other equipment, wires, lines, circuits, ports, routers, switches,
         channel service units, data service units, cabinets, racks, private
         rooms and the like. StarBand shall not and shall not permit others to
         rearrange, disconnect, remove, attempt to repair, or otherwise tamper
         with any of the Facilities. If the same occurs, in addition to being a
         breach by StarBand of StarBand's obligations hereunder, StarBand shall
         (i) pay Spacenet the cost to repair any damage to the Facilities or
         harm to any individual caused thereby; and (ii) be responsible for the
         payment of service charges in the event that maintenance or inspection
         of the Facilities is required as a result of StarBand's breach of this
         paragraph. StarBand covenants to procure and maintain an insurance
         policy reasonably acceptable to Spacenet to cover the foregoing. In no
         event shall Spacenet be liable to StarBand or any other person for
         interruption of Internet Connectivity Service or for any

                                  CONFIDENTIAL

         other loss, cost or damage caused or related to improper use or
         maintenance of the Facilities, unless the same is caused by the
         negligence of Spacenet.

4.       Service Subject to Availability.

         The furnishing of Internet Connectivity Service is subject to the
         availability thereof, on a continuing basis, and is limited to the
         capacity of Spacenet to provide the Internet Connectivity Service as
         well as the capacity which Spacenet may obtain from carriers to furnish
         Internet Connectivity Service from time to time as required at the sole
         discretion of Spacenet.

5.       StarBand Responsibilities.

         StarBand shall have the additional responsibilities set forth below. In
         addition to other remedies available at law, in the event StarBand
         breaches any of the following responsibilities, Spacenet shall have the
         immediate right to terminate or suspend the Internet Connectivity
         Service to StarBand and StarBand shall be liable for all charges
         incurred as of the date of termination, and if applicable, any
         termination charges associated with such Internet Connectivity Service.

         (i)      Spacenet will not provide support directly to nor interface
                  with any end user. StarBand is responsible for (a) selecting
                  the end users that StarBand permits to access the Internet
                  Connectivity Service; (b) implementing with its end users
                  appropriate terms, conditions, and measures to ensure that all
                  end users comply with the terms and conditions of this
                  Agreement; (c) establishing its end users' rights to access
                  the Internet Connectivity Service; (d) training its end users;
                  and (e) billing and collecting any amounts StarBand elects to
                  charge its end users in connection with the Internet
                  Connectivity Service.

         (ii)     StarBand is responsible for its content (including any content
                  hosted by StarBand). StarBand agrees that it will not use the
                  Internet Connectivity Service to interfere with or disrupt
                  other network users, network services or network equipment.
                  Disruptions include, but are not limited to distribution or
                  propagation of computer worms and viruses, and using the
                  network to make unauthorized entry to any other machine
                  accessible via the network. StarBand will (a) not send any
                  unsolicited email that could be expected, in Spacenet's
                  reasonable discretion, to provoke complaints; (b) provide
                  recipients of unsolicited emails a clear and easily
                  exercisable means to be excluded from additional emails from
                  StarBand; (c) honor any request by any party to be excluded
                  from unsolicited emails (which means, among other things, that
                  StarBand will not provide such party's email address to any
                  third party for the purpose of sending unsolicited email); (d)
                  refrain from any use of the Internet Connectivity Service
                  which could interfere with a third party's ability to access
                  or use the Internet or the Internet Connectivity Service; and
                  (e) ensure that any email StarBand sends clearly and
                  accurately identifies the sender, the sender's return address
                  and the email address of the originator.

         (iii)    To the extent deemed necessary by StarBand, StarBand shall
                  implement security procedures and controls necessary to limit
                  access to the Internet Connectivity Service to StarBand's
                  authorized end users and shall maintain facilities and
                  procedures external to the Internet Connectivity Service for
                  reconstruction of lost or altered files, data or programs.

         (iv)     StarBand understands that the Internet Connectivity Service
                  provided under this Agreement (including Internet use) may
                  require registrations and related administrative reports that
                  are public in nature.

         (v)      All IP addresses shall remain, at all times, property of
                  Spacenet and shall be nontransferable and StarBand shall have
                  no right to use such IP addresses upon termination or
                  expiration of this Agreement. IP addresses are allocated by
                  Spacenet to StarBand per the Internet Registry (ARIN)
                  guidelines following RFC 2050. Any change requested by
                  StarBand to the Spacenet allocated addresses must be agreed to
                  by the parties.

         (vi)     StarBand authorizes Spacenet to (a) monitor and record calls
                  and transmissions using the Internet Connectivity Service and
                  calls or transmissions to Spacenet concerning the Internet
                  Connectivity Service in order to detect fraud, check quality
                  and operate, maintain and repair the Internet Connectivity
                  Service; and (b) disclose such information to the extent
                  Spacenet deems it is legally required.

6.       StarBand Warranty.

         StarBand warrants that its use of the Internet Connectivity Service,
         the content and all matters related thereto will at all times comply
         with all applicable laws, regulations and written and electronic
         instructions for use. Spacenet reserves the right to terminate or
         suspend Internet Connectivity Service and/or remove StarBand or end
         users' content from the Internet Connectivity Service if Spacenet (i)
         determines, in its sole discretion, that Spacenet's public image,
         reputation or goodwill will be adversely affected or that such use or
         content does not conform with the requirements set forth in this
         Agreement, or that Spacenet could be subject to liability; or (ii)
         receives notice from anyone that StarBand's or end users' use or
         content may violate any laws or regulations. Spacenet's actions or
         inaction under this Section shall not constitute review or approval of
         StarBand's or end users' use or content.

7.       Limitation of Liability.

         (i)      Spacenet shall not be responsible for the operation or
                  maintenance of any StarBand-provided communication equipment.
                  Spacenet shall not be responsible for the transmission or
                  reception of signals by StarBand-provided equipment or for the
                  quality of, or defects in, such transmission and/or equipment.

         (ii)     Spacenet shall not be liable for any damages arising out of or
                  relating to: interoperability, interaction or interconnection
                  problems with applications, equipment,

                                  CONFIDENTIAL

                  services or networks provided by StarBand or third parties;
                  service interruptions or lost or altered messages or
                  transmissions, except as otherwise provided herein or in a
                  tariff; or, unauthorized access to or theft, alteration, loss
                  or destruction of StarBand's, users' or third parties'
                  applications, content, data, programs, information, network or
                  systems.

         (iii)    Spacenet shall not be responsible for: (a) service impairments
                  caused by acts within the control of StarBand, its agents,
                  subcontractors, suppliers, licensees or users; (b)
                  interoperability of specific StarBand applications; (c)
                  inability of StarBand or any user to access or interact with
                  any other service providers, networks, users or informational
                  or computing resources through the Internet; (d) interactions
                  with third parties through the Internet; (e) services or
                  equipment provided by third parties; or, (f) performance
                  impairments caused elsewhere on the Internet. Spacenet shall
                  not be liable for unauthorized access by third parties to
                  StarBand's or its users' or third parties transmission
                  facilities or premises equipment or for unauthorized access to
                  or alteration, theft, loss or destruction of StarBand's or its
                  user's or third party's network, systems, applications, data
                  files, programs, procedures or information through accident,
                  fraudulent means or devices, or any other method.

         (iv)     Spacenet does not warrant that the Internet Connectivity
                  Service will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that the
                  Internet Connectivity Service will meet StarBand's
                  requirements or that the Internet Connectivity Service will
                  prevent unauthorized access by third parties. Spacenet does
                  not authorize anyone to make a warranty of any kind on its
                  behalf and StarBand should not rely on anyone making such
                  statements.

         (v)      StarBand shall indemnify, defend and hold Spacenet harmless
                  from and against any and all injuries, loss or damage
                  (including attorney's fees and court costs and including
                  claims for infringement of third party proprietary rights) (a)
                  made by any end user of StarBand in connection with the
                  delivery or consumption of Internet Connectivity Service, (b)
                  arising out of any commission or negligent omission by
                  StarBand in connection with the Internet Connectivity Service,
                  or (c) arising from StarBand's negligence or willful
                  misconduct.

         (vi)     Spacenet does not monitor and shall have no liability or
                  responsibility whatsoever for the content of any transmissions
                  or communications transmitted or otherwise disseminated via
                  the Internet Connectivity Service, and StarBand shall
                  indemnify and hold Spacenet harmless from any and all claims
                  (including claims by governmental entities seeking to impose
                  penal sanctions) related, directly or indirectly, to such
                  content. Spacenet provides only access to the Internet;
                  Spacenet does not operate or control the information,
                  services, opinions or other content of the Internet. StarBand
                  agrees that it shall make no claim whatsoever against Spacenet
                  relating to the content of the Internet or respecting any
                  information, product, service or software ordered through or
                  provided by virtue of the Internet.

8.       Acceptable Use Policy.

         StarBand's use of the Internet Access Service shall at all times comply
         with Spacenet's then-current Acceptable Use Policy and Privacy Policy,
         as amended by Spacenet from time to time in its sole discretion.
         Spacenet will notify StarBand of complaints received by Spacenet
         regarding each incident of alleged violation of Spacenet's Acceptable
         Use Policy by StarBand or third parties that have gained access to the
         Internet Access Service through StarBand. StarBand agrees that it will
         promptly investigate all such complaints and take all necessary actions
         to remedy any actual violations of Spacenet's Acceptable Use Policy.
         Spacenet may, in its sole discretion, identify to the complainant that
         StarBand, or a third party that gained access to the Internet Access
         Service through StarBand, is investigating the complaint and may
         provide the complainant with the necessary information to contact
         StarBand directly to resolve the complaint. StarBand shall promptly
         identify a representative for the purpose of receiving such
         communications. Spacenet reserves the right to install and use, or to
         have StarBand install and use, any appropriate devices to prevent
         violations of its Acceptable Use Policy, including devices designed to
         filter or terminate access to the Internet Access Service.

                                NON-COMPETE TERMS

During the term of this Agreement (including all renewals thereof), Gilat and
Spacenet, hereby agree that they shall not, and shall not permit any of their
Subsidiaries to, (a) directly or indirectly, offer in North America (i.e., the
United States, Canada and Mexico), any products or services competitive with the
G/S Products & Services that are the subject of this Agreement, including,
without limitation, selling, offering for sale or distributing free of charge,
customer premises equipment ("CPE") or any other products, services, equipment
or other items related to the provision by StarBand of such goods and services
(provided that Spacenet shall not be prohibited from conducting in North America
its Existing VSAT Business with existing customers of Spacenet and Large
Businesses), (b) without StarBand's prior written consent amend their respective
organizational documents, or (c) enter into or permit to exist any transaction
with StarBand unless such transaction is negotiated and consummated on an arm's
length basis and upon terms and conditions no less favorable than those which
StarBand could reasonably expect to be offered by a third party in a
substantially similar transaction. For purposes of this paragraph, (a) "Existing
VSAT Business" means the sale, marketing, service support of VSAT equipment and
VSAT-based network services and the installation of such equipment; and (b) a
"Large Business" means any corporation, partnership, limited liability company,
joint venture, association, joint-stock company, trust, trustee, unincorporated
organization, authority or other body that (i) has at least 100 VSAT sites and
(ii) is centrally billed, but that is not (A) an Internet Service Provider or
(B) a provider of access to the service (two-way broadband connectivity via
satellite) at a residence or "small office, home office" through an arrangement
whereby it would be reasonably likely that the provider of such access would be
paid for such access, if it was not obtaining another commercial benefit
therefrom.

In addition to the foregoing, Spacenet and Gilat represent and warrant that an
Equipment Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 23, 1991 (as from time to
time amended, modified or supplemented, the "Gilat/Spacenet Equipment
Agreement"), by and between Gilat and Spacenet (as successor in interest to GTE
Spacenet Corporation) constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of
Gilat and Spacenet, enforceable against each of them in accordance with its
terms. During the term of this Agreement (including all renewals thereof), Gilat
and Spacenet shall (a) preserve and maintain their corporate existence and all
of their material franchises, licenses, rights and privileges, and (b) each
remain a corporation duly organized and in good standing under the respective
laws of their incorporation jurisdiction. In addition, Gilat and Spacenet shall
ensure that during the term of this Agreement (including all renewals thereof),
the Gilat/Spacenet Equipment Agreement (a) shall continue to be a valid and
binding obligation of each of Gilat and Spacenet, enforceable against each of
them in accordance with its terms, and (b) shall not, without the prior written
consent of StarBand, be amended, modified or supplemented. In addition, Gilat
and Spacenet shall take no action whatsoever that, after giving effect thereto,
would impair Spacenet's exclusive rights to sell VSAT products under the
Gilat/Spacenet Equipment Agreement.

                                  CONFIDENTIAL
                                       G-1

<PAGE>   49

In addition to the foregoing, Gilat and Spacenet further represent and warrant
that they will sell G/S Products & Services to other parties only pursuant to
written terms and conditions that are expressly limited in such a manner that
will not impair StarBand's rights hereunder. Gilat and Spacenet further agree to
use reasonable efforts to stop and/or discourage activities of other parties
that might attempt to sell G/S Products & Services in the business segments
described above that are exclusively StarBand's, and to cooperate with StarBand
in this regard.

The preceding paragraphs shall apply to all two-way satellite products now in
existence or that are developed during the term of this agreement (including all
renewals thereof) by Gilat, Spacenet, or affiliates of either company, which
shall be made available to StarBand on mutually agreeable terms and conditions.

During the term of this Agreement (including all renewals thereof), StarBand
agrees that it shall not, in North America, offer to Large Businesses products
and services substantially similar to the products and services that compete
with the Existing VSAT Business, it being understood that nothing contained
herein shall prevent StarBand from providing any services whatsoever to any
Person that is not a Large Business.

The parties acknowledge that (a) Gilat intends to establish a separate entity
that is tentatively to be called StarBand Latin America (for the purpose of
selling VSAT equipment and services in Latin America, including Mexico); and (b)
StarBand will acquire [*] of the equity, and an option to purchase another [*]
of such equity in the new entity in exchange for granting StarBand Latin America
the exclusive rights to sell VSAT products and services in Mexico. StarBand
hereby agrees that upon such occurrence, the term "North America" as used in
this Attachment shall be limited to the United States and Canada, and Mexico
shall be deleted from the StarBand territory.

Gilat, Spacenet and StarBand each acknowledge that the covenants set forth above
pertaining to them contain reasonable limitations as to time, geographical area
and scope of activity to be restrained, and do not impose a greater restraint
than is necessary to protect and preserve for the benefit of the Parties the
goodwill of StarBand and Spacenet and to protect the legitimate business
interests of the Parties. If, however, the covenants set forth above are
determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason
of their duration or the scope of the geographical area covered or in any other
respect, they will be interpreted to extend only over the longest period of time
for which they may be enforceable and/or over the largest geographical area as
to which they may be enforceable and/or to the maximum extent in all other
aspects as to which they may be enforceable, all as determined by such court in
such action.

These Non-Compete Terms shall terminate upon the termination of the Agreement by
either party thereto in accordance with the terms thereof.

                     Telecommunications Services Agreement

This Telecommunications Services Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into as of
the 15th day of February, 2000, by and between Spacenet Inc. ("Spacenet"), a
Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Gilat Satellite Networks,
Ltd., and Newco ("Newco"), a Delaware corporation, pursuant to which Spacenet
agrees to provide Newco with telecommunications facilities and services
necessary to provide satellite communications services in connection with
Newco's proposed satellite direct-to-home telecommunications services.

       WHEREAS, Spacenet and Newco are related entities and Spacenet wishes to
assist Newco in the development of its business; and

       WHEREAS, Spacenet has and operates certain satellite transmission and
reception facilities and services that Newco can use to provide the services it
contemplates until such time as Newco may obtain the necessary authorizations
to own and/or operate those, or other, facilities;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and undertakings set
forth herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1.     Services

       1.1    Spacenet Services and Direct-to-Home Services.  Spacenet shall
provide to Newco, twenty-four (24) hours per day, three hundred sixty-five (365)
days per year, uplink and associated satellite transport services from
Spacenet's satellite earth station hubs and the uplink and reception services of
submeter and other VSAT terminals licensed to Spacenet, including access to
transmission and switching facilities necessary to transmit and terminate
Newco's telecommunications traffic to all termination points accessible to
Spacenet (the "Spacenet Services"). The Spacenet Services shall be defined, not
later than the Milestone One Achievement Date (as such term is defined in that
certain Broadband Access Services Supply Agreement, dated as of February 15,
2000 (as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, the "Supply
Agreement"), in a statement of work (such statement of work to be in form and
substance satisfactory to MSN (as defined below), the "SOW")) to be attached
hereto as Exhibit A. Newco will use the Spacenet Services to provide such
telecommunications services to customers in the contiguous United States, (and
as appropriate in Canada and Mexico) as Newco may offer from time-to-time
("Direct-to-Home Services"). It is understood that the Direct-to-Home Services
will be primarily to provide Internet access and related services and direct
broadcast satellite services to Newco customers. As part of the Spacenet
Services, Spacenet shall also provide all personnel and utilities (e.g.,
electricity, water, heat, air conditioning, etc.) at the Spacenet facilities
that are necessary for Newco to provide the Direct-to-Home Services.

               1.1.1   Spacenet personnel will continuously monitor the
Spacenet Services and the Direct-to-Home Services and will communicate with
Newco's Operational Contracts (as defined in Paragraph 9 below) as promptly as
possible regarding any technical problems with

Newco's equipment, Newco's signal(s) or such services. Spacenet will assign
properly qualified and experienced personnel to perform the Spacenet Services
described in this Agreement. Spacenet shall assume the responsibility for
day-to-day management and performance of the Spacenet Services and shall
ensure, without limitation, that the appropriate resources are available and
utilized to perform the Spacenet Services in accordance with this Agreement.
For good cause, Newco may reasonably request that Spacenet remove any of
Spacenet's personnel from performance of the Spacenet Services under this
Agreement, and Spacenet agrees to promptly comply with such requests. Spacenet
also understands and agrees that it shall be solely responsible for the
performance of any subcontractors that may be required in order for Spacenet
to perform the Spacenet Services.

               1.1.2   Spacenet will provide to Newco, use of such reasonable
space as may be necessary to permit Newco to locate its equipment at Spacenet's
facilities. In consideration for this, Newco will reimburse Spacenet for the
actual direct cost to Spacenet of the space used by Newco and reimbursement
will be made in accordance with Paragraph 6 below.

       1.2   Service Initiation.  Spacenet shall make the Spacenet Services
available to Newco on the date on which this Agreement has been fully executed.

       1.3   Additional Services. If Newco wishes to have Spacenet perform
additional services under this Agreement, then those additional services shall
be subject to availability and shall be added to this Agreement upon the
written agreement of the parties. If any such services cause an increase in
the cost of performing the Spacenet Services, or otherwise affects any other
provisions of this Agreement, then the addition of such services shall be
subject to good faith negotiation and acceptance by both parties prior to the
performance of such services.

2.     Newco-Supplied Equipment

       2.1   Newco Equipment.  In the event Newco determines to supply any
equipment (the "Newco Equipment") in connection with this Agreement:

             2.1.1  Newco Equipment shall remain the property of Newco, and
maintenance, repair, or replacement of Newco Equipment shall be the sole
responsibility of Newco unless otherwise agreed. Upon expiration or termination
of this Agreement, Newco agrees to promptly remove Newco Equipment from
Spacenet's facilities.

              2.1.2  Except for emergencies, Newco shall have access to the
Newco Equipment for normal maintenance purposes form 08:00 to 17:00 local
time, weekends and holidays excluded, and Newco shall give Spacenet a minimum
of twenty-four (24) hours advance notice of its need to gain such access.
Newco shall have access to the Newco Equipment for emergency servicing purposes
at any time upon telephonic or facsimile notice to Spacenet, and in such case
Newco shall give Spacenet as much advanced notice as is feasible before
seeking access to the Newco equipment.

<PAGE>   54

             3.1.1    Newco shall be solely responsible for delivery of its
signal(s) to the mutually agreed demarcation point at Spacenet hubs. Spacenet

facilities at the demarcation point.

             3.1.2    Newco shall not use, or knowingly permit anyone to use,
the demarcation point, Spacenet's system or hubs for any use or purpose not
permitted by law.

             3.1.3    Newco shall be responsible for establishing the rates it
charges its customers and for billing and collecting from its customers any
charges for the Direct-to-Home Services that Newco provides through Spacenet's
facilities. Newco is responsible for payment of the total invoiced amount from
Spacenet regardless of whether Newco is paid for those services by its
customers.

       3.2   Spacenet.

             3.2.1  Spacenet shall uplink Newco's signal(s) to the

             3.2.2  Spacenet shall provide all necessary facilities and
equipment (including any necessary spare parts) that are necessary to uplink
Newco's signal(s) in accordance with this Agreement after the demarcation point.

             3.2.3  All equipment provided by Spacenet shall remain the

4.     Compliance with Technical Specifications.

       4.1   Newco shall comply with (i) Spacenet's technical specifications
from time to time set forth in the SOW so as to enable Spacenet to provide the
Spacenet Services, and (ii) all policies and procedures of the Spacenet hubs,
as notified to Newco in writing in advance.

       4.2   Spacenet shall comply with all operational guidelines,
specifications and requirements provided by Newco, to the extent consistent
with Spacenet facilities and existing commitments to other customers. Upon
Spacenet's request, Newco shall furnish any technical information or
specifications relating to the Direct-to-Home Services as may be reasonably
required by Spacenet.

5.     Charges.

       5.1   Service Charge. The Spacenet Services will be provided to Newco
             free-of-charge except as specified below:

             (a)   To the extent Spacenet incurs actual direct costs relating
                   to its performance of the Spacenet Services as set forth
                   in the SOW, Newco shall reimburse Spacenet for such actual
                   direct costs incurred by Spacenet in accordance with a
                   budget to be agreed by Newco and Spacenet. If the amount
                   with respect to which Spacenet is seeking reimbursement
                   exceeds such budget, then such reimbursement shall be
                   subject to Newco approval

                                      -3-
<PAGE>   55

                   and will be based upon Spacenet's submission to Newco of
                   reasonable documentation substantiating the cost overruns.
             (b)   Likewise, based on reasonable substantiating documentation,
                   Newco shall reimburse Spacenet for the actual direct costs it
                   incurs to employ specifically dedicated Spacenet personnel at
                   the Spacenet facilities necessary for Newco to provide the
                   Direct-to-Home Service, as specified in the SOW. There will
                   be no charge to Newco for the utilities referenced in
                   Paragraph 1.1.
             (c)   It is anticipated that Newco will need to place certain of
                   its dedicated personnel at Spacenet facilities in connection
                   with this Agreement. If circumstances arise in connection
                   with this Agreement where Newco requires the use of specified
                   Spacenet personnel to perform certain services, Spacenet may
                   charge Newco for the actual direct costs it incurs in making
                   such personnel available to Newco.

       For purposes of this Agreement, "actual direct costs" are those costs
       that are necessarily incurred by Spacenet to perform the Spacenet
       Services (without the addition of any mark-up or other increase).

       5.2   Payment. Charges for the items specified above, and for any
additional services or Spacenet-supplied equipment agreed upon by the parties,
shall be invoiced at the time such services are rendered or the equipment is
provided and Newco shall make payment by wire transfer to the Spacenet's
designated bank account within thirty (30) days of the date of the invoice.

       5.3   Late Payment. If any payment is not received by Spacenet within
thirty (30) days after the date of invoice, then, unless such payment is the
subject of a good faith dispute between the parties, such overdue amount shall
be subject to late payment charges at the lower of 10% per annum, or the
highest legally permissible rate of interest, until the date payment is actually
received.

       5.4   Taxes.  Newco acknowledges and understands that all charges are
computed exclusive of any applicable federal, state or local use, excise,
gross receipts, sales and privilege taxes, duties, fees or similar liabilities
(other than general income or property taxes), including without limitation,
any tax or charge levied to support the Universal Service Fund contemplated by
the Telecommunications Act of 1996, whether charged to or against Spacenet, its
suppliers or affiliates or Newco for the Service provided to Newco ("Taxes").
Such Taxes shall be paid by Newco in addition to all other charges provided for
herein.

       5.5   Audit Rights.  Spacenet agrees to keep all usual and proper books
of account and records and all usual and proper entries and other documentation
relating to the Spacenet Services and the Direct-to-Home Services. Newco shall
have the right to cause an audit and inspection to be made of such books and
records, entries and documentation of Spacenet as they relate to Spacenet's
obligations under this Agreement. Such audit shall be conducted by an
independent, third party auditor selected by Newco and all information
disclosed and/or provided to such auditor in connection with such audit will be
subject to an appropriate prior written confidentiality agreement. Any such
audit shall be conducted, to the extent possible, in a manner that does not
interfere with the ordinary business operations of Spacenet. Any such audit
shall be

                                      -4-
<PAGE>   56
paid for by Newco unless material discrepancies are disclosed in the auditor's
report.  "Material" shall mean a five percent (5%) or greater discrepancy
between information previously reported to Newco by Spacenet and that
information contained in the auditor's report.  If material discrepancies are
disclosed, Spacenet agrees to pay for the costs associated with the audit, in
addition to the amount of the discrepancy paid by Newco to Spacenet plus
interest at the highest LIBOR rate from time to time set forth in the Wall
Street Journal in the United States plus six (6) percentage points (or, if less,
at a rate equal to the highest rate permitted under applicable law).

6.     Representations and Warranties.

       10.1   From time to time, the parties may make available to each other
