a required prepayment or reduction in commitment thereunder) or completion of
any equity financing by either of the Companies or any Subsidiary thereof

Credit Facility (or after receipt of any required consents or waivers from the

Notes at the time outstanding, in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the
respective unpaid principal amounts of such Notes. Ubiquitel's obligation to
prepay the Notes under this Section 6.1 in the amounts required by this Section
6.1 shall be fixed until there is no longer any remaining aggregate principal
amount of outstanding Notes, and Ubiquitel shall not receive any credit or
offset with respect to such obligation as a result of any prepayment under
Section 6.2, hereof. Ubiquitel shall give the

                                       20

6.1(a) at least thirty (30) and not more than sixty (60) days prior to the
scheduled prepayment date for such prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no
such prepayments shall be required under this Section 6.1 if (i) the Senior

transfer, such incurrence of Indebtedness or from such equity financing to be
applied to repay amounts owing under the Senior Credit Facility (ii) not less
than $10,000,000 of Indebtedness is outstanding under the Senior Credit Facility

a price equal to (1) the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid,
plus (2) all accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes to
be prepaid, plus (3) a premium equal to one percent (1%) of the principal amount
of the Notes to be prepaid, and (ii) at any time on or after the Closing Date,

plus (2) all accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes to
be prepaid, plus (3) a premium (the "Prepayment Premium") equal to the following
applicable percentage of the principal amount being prepaid (based upon the

            ----------------------------------         ----------
        Closing Date through December 28, 2000             7%
        December 28, 2000 through December 28, 2001        5%
        December 28, 2001 through December 28, 2002        3%
        December 28, 2002 through December 28, 2003        2%
        December 28, 2003 through December 28, 2004        1%
        On or after December 28, 2004                      0%

            (b) The right of Ubiquitel to prepay Notes pursuant to this Section
6.2 shall be conditioned upon its giving notice of prepayment, signed by its
sole member, to the holders of Notes not less than thirty (30) days and not more
than sixty (60) days prior to the date upon which the prepayment is to be made
specifying (i) the registered holder of each Note to be prepaid, (ii) the
aggregate principal amount being prepaid, (iii) the date of such prepayment,
(iv) the accrued and unpaid interest (to but not including the date upon which
the prepayment is to be made) and (v) the calculation of the Prepayment Premium
with respect to such prepayment; provided, however, in order for such notice to
be effective and to be deemed given, it must include a statement from Ubiquitel
that either no consents from any holders of any Senior Indebtedness are
necessary for any such prepayment or all necessary consents have been obtained
and without such statement such notice shall not be effective and shall not be
deemed to

                                       21
<PAGE>

be given and Ubiquitel may not prepay the Notes in accordance with such notice
under this Section 6,2, and neither any such statement nor this proviso shall,
in and of itself, impose any obligation or liability on any holder of Notes
relative to any holder of Senior Indebtedness. Notice of prepayment under this
Section 6.2 having been so given, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes so
specified in such notice, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and the
Prepayment Premium on such aggregate principal amount, shall all become due and
payable on the specified prepayment date.

            (c) If any prepayment under Section 6.1 or this Section 6.2 does not
repay in full the aggregate principal amount of all Notes then outstanding, then
the aggregate amount of such prepayment of the principal amount of Notes shall
be allocated among all Notes at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as
practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts of such Notes.

      6.3 Mandatory Repayment Upon Change of Control Event. In the event of the
occurrence of a Change of Control Event, Ubiquitel shall notify the holders of
the Notes as soon as practicable and in any event within five (5) Business Days
thereafter, and the holders of the Notes shall thereafter for a period of sixty
(60) days have the right to demand repayment of all or part of the Notes by
Ubiquitel at a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest
to date of payment. Payment by Ubiquitel shall occur not later than ten (10)
days after receipt of notice demanding repayment. Prior to delivering the
notification referred to in the preceding sentence, but in any event within 30
days following any Change of Control Event, Ubiquitel shall (i) repay in full
and terminate all commitments under Indebtedness under the Senior Credit
Facility, and all other Senior Indebtedness the terms of which require repayment
upon a Put Triggering Event, or offer to repay in full and terminate all
commitments under the Senior Credit Facility and all other such Senior
Indebtedness and to repay the Indebtedness owed to each lender which has
accepted such offer, or (iii) obtain the requisite consents under the Senior
Credit Facility and all other Senior Indebtedness to permit the purchase of the
Notes as provided above.

      6.4 Miscellaneous.

            (a) Nothing in this Section 6 shall in any way limit or affect the
rights or remedies of a holder of Notes, or the covenants and obligations of the
Companies, whether under Section 7, 8 or 13 or any other provision of this
Agreement.

            (b) If any prepayment (or repayment) date under this Section 6 is
not a Business Day, such prepayment (or repayment) shall be made on the next
succeeding Business Day.

            (c) Neither Company nor any Subsidiary shall repurchase any
outstanding Notes unless either of the Companies either (i) offers to purchase
all then outstanding Notes or (ii) offers to purchase Notes from the holders in
proportion to the respective unpaid principal amount of Notes held by each
holder. In any such repurchase by a Company, if all Notes are not being
repurchased, then the amount of Notes to be repurchased shall be allocated among
all Notes held by holders which accept such Company's repurchase offer so that
the Notes are

                                       22
<PAGE>

repurchased from such holders in proportion to the respective unpaid principal
amount of Notes held by each such holder which accepts such Company's offer (or
in such other proportion as agreed by all such holders who accept such Company's
offer). Nothing in this Section 6.4(c) shall (i) obligate a holder of Notes to
accept a Company's repurchase offer or (ii) prevent such Company from prepaying
Notes in accordance with the terms of (and this Section 6.4(c) shall not apply
to) Section 6.1 or Section 6.2 of this Purchase Agreement.

lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service) with any
Affiliate of either Company or of any Subsidiary, other than a wholly-owned
Subsidiary of either Company, unless such transaction, agreement or general
arrangement (a) is approved by the Board with the concurrence of a majority of
the independent directors and (b) is on terms that are no less favorable to the
Companies or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those which might be
obtained at the time of such transaction from a Person who is not such an

applicable to, (i) employment arrangements with (and general salary and benefit
compensation for) any individual who is an employee of either Company or any

amount of such obligations being refinanced and that such Liens shall encumber
only such portions of the property, assets and income of the Companies or any
Subsidiaries as were previously encumbered by Liens securing such obligations
being refinanced (except that in the refinancing or renewal of Senior
Indebtedness from banks the Company or a Subsidiary may grant Liens on
additional property or assets); and

      8.10 No Restrictions on Dividends. Neither Company nor any Subsidiary will
create (or permit to exist) any consensual restrictions (whether by agreement or
otherwise) that may affect or limit the ability of any Subsidiary to pay
dividends or to make other distributions of any or all of its assets to either
Company or to any Subsidiary except the Senior Credit Facility and other than
restrictions permitted pursuant to the Senior Credit Facility.

      8.11 Private Placement Status. Neither Company nor any agent nor other

necessary or appropriate in order that UHC validly and legally issue fully paid
and nonassessable shares of its Common Stock free from all taxes, Liens and
charges with respect to the issue thereof, (c) will not take any action which
results in any adjustment of the exercise price under the Warrants if the total
number of shares of UHC's Common Stock (or other securities), issuable after the
action upon the exercise of all of the then outstanding Warrants would exceed
the total number of shares of Common Stock (or other securities) then authorized
by UHC's certificate of incorporation and available for the purpose of issuance
upon such exercise and (d) will not have any authorized Common Stock or
securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (and will not issue
any Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common
Stock) other than its existing authorized Common Stock, except that UHC may
increase the number of such authorized shares of its Common Stock as long as
such additional shares have the same terms as those shares authorized as of the
date hereof.

      8.13 Limitation on Creation of Subsidiaries. UHC will not, and will not
permit any of its Subsidiaries to, establish, create or acquire any new

SECTION 9. SUBORDINATION

      9.1 Agreement to Be Bound. All Subordinated Indebtedness shall, to the
extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, be subordinated and subject in
right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash of all Senior
Indebtedness. Each holder of Subordinated Indebtedness, whether upon original
issue or upon transfer or assignment thereof, by its acceptance thereof agrees
that the Subordinated Indebtedness shall be subject to the provisions contained
in this Section 9. The subordination provisions of this Section 9 shall be for
the benefit of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, may be enforced directly
by such holders and may not be amended without the consent of such holders.

      9.2 Priority of Senior Indebtedness.

            (a) Upon the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness by lapse of time,
acceleration, required prepayment or otherwise, all Senior Indebtedness shall
first be paid in full in cash before any payment is made of any kind or
character, whether in cash, properties, securities or otherwise, (or any assets
are applied voluntarily or involuntarily) on account of Subordinated
Indebtedness.

            (b) No payment on account of or otherwise in connection with the
Subordinated Indebtedness, shall be made, and no assets shall be applied to the
purchase or other acquisition or retirement of the Subordinated Indebtedness,
for so long as there exists a default or an event of default involving failure
to pay when due any Senior Indebtedness or for a period (the "Payment Blockage
Period") of up to one hundred eighty (180) days after both of the following have
occurred: (A) there exists and is continuing an event of default on any Senior
Indebtedness and (B) written notice of such event of default shall have been
given (by the Company or by holders of such Senior Indebtedness) to the holders
of Notes, stating that this Section 9.2(b) is therefore applicable; provided
that any Payment Blockage Period arising as a result of this Section 9.2 shall
terminate immediately upon the waiver or cure of such event of default or if
such Senior Indebtedness is no longer outstanding; provided, further, that in
any three hundred sixty (360) consecutive day period the aggregate number of
days in all Payment Blockage Periods shall not exceed one hundred eighty (180)
days; provided, further, that no event of default on Senior Indebtedness
resulting in a Payment Blockage Period may constitute the basis for a subsequent
Payment Blockage Period unless the event of default has been cured or waived for
a period of at least ninety (90) days (it being acknowledged that any subsequent
action or any breach of any financial covenants, commencing after the date of
commencement of such Payment Blockage Period, that in either case would give
rise to an event of default pursuant to any provisions under which an event of
default previously existed or was continuing would constitute a new event of
default for this purpose). As used in this paragraph, an "event of default" is
an event of default (x) as defined in any Senior Indebtedness or in the
instrument under which the same is outstanding and (y) which would permit the
acceleration of such Senior Indebtedness prior to its maturity. Any notice to be
given to holders of Notes under this Section 9.2(b) shall be deemed properly
given if given using the addresses for holders of Notes provided pursuant to
Section 20 hereof.

                                       36
<PAGE>

            (c) In the event that any money, property or securities is received
by the holder of a Note in violation of this Section 9.2 or Section 9.3 hereof,
the holder thereof shall hold the same in trust for the benefit of the holders
of Senior Indebtedness, and shall deliver the same in kind to the Company.

      9.3 Liquidation; Dissolution; Bankruptcy.

            (a) Upon any payment or distribution of assets of either Company
(whether in cash, property or securities) to creditors upon any dissolution or
winding-up or total or partial liquidation or reorganization of either Company,
whether voluntary or involuntary, or in any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership
or similar proceeding regarding such Company, all amounts due or to become due
upon all Senior Indebtedness then outstanding shall first be paid in full in
cash before any Subordinated Indebtedness shall be entitled to receive any
assets so paid or distributed in respect thereof (but without restricting the
rights of holders under Section 6 hereof); provided that with respect to the
foregoing, the holders of Notes may receive (and shall be entitled to retain)
securities which are subordinate to (at least to the extent that the Notes are
subordinate to Senior Indebtedness pursuant to the terms hereof) the payment of
all Senior Indebtedness then outstanding and have a maturity no earlier than the
maturity of the Notes and have an interest rate no greater than that of the
Notes. Upon any such dissolution or winding-up or liquidation, reorganization or
other proceeding, any payment or distribution of assets of a Company of any kind
or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which Subordinated
Indebtedness would be entitled, except for these provisions, shall be paid by
such Company or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee,
agent or other person making such payment or distribution directly to the
holders of Senior Indebtedness which was then outstanding (pro rata to each of
such holders on the basis of the respective amounts (to the extent known) of
Senior Indebtedness then held by such holders or their representatives), to the
extent necessary to pay all such Senior Indebtedness which was then outstanding
in full in cash, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution
to or for the holders of Senior Indebtedness, before any payment or distribution
is made to the holders of the Notes (but subject to the proviso to the preceding
sentence).

            (b) Each holder of Notes by its acceptance hereof (x) irrevocably
authorizes and empowers (but without imposing any obligation on) each holder of
any Senior Indebtedness at the time outstanding, under (and only under) the
circumstances set forth in Section 9.3(a), if the holder of Notes shall fail to
do so prior to twenty (20) days before the expiration of the time to do so, to
file and prove all claims of such holder for its ratable share of payments or
distributions in respect of the Notes which are required to be paid or delivered
to the holders of Senior Indebtedness as provided in Section 9.3(a), in the name
of each such holder of the Notes or otherwise, as such holder of Senior
Indebtedness may determine to be necessary or appropriate for the enforcement of
the provisions of Section 9.3(a), and the holder of Notes may amend any such
claims regarding the Notes before or after such twentieth (20th) day (but not in
a manner inconsistent with the rights of holders of Senior Indebtedness under
this Section 9 other than this Section 9.3(b)) whether such claims are filed by
such holder of Notes or are filed, pursuant to this Section 9.3(b), by any
holder of Senior Indebtedness; and (y) under (and only under) the circumstances
set forth in Section 9.3(a), agrees to execute and deliver to each holder of
Senior

                                       37
<PAGE>

Indebtedness all such further instruments confirming the authorization
hereinabove set forth, and all such powers of attorney, proofs of claim,
assignments of claim and other instruments, and to take all such other action,
as may be reasonably requested by such holder in order to enable such holder to
enforce all claims upon or in respect of such Note holder's ratable share of
payments or distributions in respect of the Notes. Nothing in this Section
9.3(b), or any other provision hereof, shall give or be construed to give the
holder of any Senior Indebtedness any right to vote any Note, or any related
claim, or any portion of such Note or such claim, or to exercise any approval
rights, whether in connection with any resolution, arrangement, plan of
reorganization, compromise, settlement, election of trustees or otherwise.
Holders of Senior Indebtedness shall not create any liability to any person on
the part of any holders of Notes in connection with the exercise of any rights
granted under this Section 9.3(b).

      9.4 No Prejudice or Impairment; Reinstatement.

            (a) No right of any present or future holders of any Senior
Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in
any way be prejudiced or impaired (i) by any act or failure to act on the part
of either Company, including without limitation any merger or consolidation of
either Company into or with any other Person, or any sale, lease or transfer of
any or all of the assets of either Company to any other Person, (ii) by any act
(in good faith) or failure (in good faith) to act by any such holder of Senior
Indebtedness, including, without limitation, the failure by such holder to
perfect a security interest in any security for the payment of Senior
Indebtedness or (iii) by any noncompliance by Ubiquitel with the terms and
provisions of any Note or this Purchase Agreement regardless of any knowledge
thereof which any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with. The holders
of the Senior Indebtedness may, without in any way affecting the subordination
hereunder, at any time or from time to time and in their absolute discretion,
change the manner, place, time or other terms of payment of, or renew or alter,
any Senior Indebtedness, or amend, modify or supplement any agreement or
instrument governing or evidencing such Senior Indebtedness or any other
document referred to therein, or exercise or refrain from exercising any of
their rights under the Senior Indebtedness, including, without limitation,
waiver of default thereunder and release of any collateral securing such Senior
Indebtedness, all without notice to or assent from the holders of the Notes. The
absence of any notice to, or knowledge by, any holder of Notes or the existence
or occurrence of any of the matters or events set forth in this paragraph (a)
shall not impair or otherwise affect the rights of the holders of Senior
Indebtedness against holders of Notes under the subordination provisions of this
Section 9.

            (b) The provisions of this Section 9 shall continue to be effective,
or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment in respect of
any Senior Indebtedness is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned
by the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

      9.5 Subrogation. Subject to the payment in full in cash of all Senior
Indebtedness, the holders of the Notes shall be subrogated to the rights of the
holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of assets of
Ubiquitel made on the Senior Indebtedness until the principal of, premium, if
any, and interest on (and any other amounts due with respect to) the

                                       38
<PAGE>

Notes and all other amounts due under this Agreement shall be paid in full;
provided that any holder of any Note shall have the right, in its sole
discretion, to waive such subrogation rights without affecting such holder's
rights with respect to any Note held by such holder or under this Agreement
(which rights shall continue in full force and effect). For the purposes of such
subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of Senior Indebtedness
of any cash, property or securities to which the holders of the Notes would be
entitled except for the provisions of this Section 9 shall, as among Ubiquitel,
its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the holders of
Notes, be deemed to be a payment by Ubiquitel to or on account of Senior
Indebtedness, it being understood that these provisions in this Section 9 are,
and are intended, solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the
holders of the Notes, on the one hand, and the holders of Senior Indebtedness,
on the other hand.

      9.6 Obligations Unaffected. Nothing contained in this Section 9 is
intended to or shall impair as among Ubiquitel, its creditors other than the
holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the holders of the Notes, the obligation of
Ubiquitel which shall be absolute and unconditional, to pay to the holders of
the Notes the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes, as and
when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or to
affect the relative rights of the holders of the Notes and creditors of
Ubiquitel other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness. Nothing herein (other
than Section 9.8) shall prevent any holder of the Notes from exercising any
remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default, subject to the rights, if any, under these provisions of the holders
of Senior Indebtedness.

      9.7 Definition of Senior Indebtedness. The term "Senior Indebtedness"
shall mean the principal of, premium, if any, interest (including, without
limitation, all interest on the Senior Indebtedness accruing after the
commencement of any insolvency, liquidation or other proceeding of the type
referred to in Section 9.3 hereof and any additional interest that would have
accrued but for the commencement of such proceeding whether or not the claim for
such interest is allowed under applicable law) on, and all other obligations of
any type with respect to Indebtedness outstanding under the Senior Credit
Facility and obligations in respect of letters of credit. Interest Rate

any Interest Rate Protection Agreement (including guarantees thereof and other
Indebtedness of Ubiquitel incurred pursuant to Section 8.3(h)) in all such cases

Indebtedness" shall not include the principal of loans or the amount of letter
of credit obligations under the Senior Credit Facility or any other agreement
evidencing Senior Indebtedness in excess of $28,300,000.

      9.8 Effectiveness of Acceleration of Notes and Exercise of Remedies.

            (a) Until the Senior Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facility
shall have been paid in full in cash, any declaration that all or any portion of
the unpaid principal amount of the Notes shall be due and payable shall not be
effective and holders of Notes shall not initiate any action to seek or enforce
collection or enforcement of any Notes, including initiating or joining in the
filing of a petition seeking a bankruptcy proceeding of the Companies, until the
earliest of (i) any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, assignment for the
benefit of creditors,

                                       39
<PAGE>

reorganization, arrangement with creditors or similar proceeding of or regarding
the Companies, or any dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or marshaling of the
assets and liabilities of the Company shall have been commenced by or against
the Companies, (ii) the acceleration of the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness
or any initiation of any judicial proceedings by the holders of any Senior
Indebtedness to collect such Senior Indebtedness, (iii) the expiration of one
hundred and eighty (180) days following occurrence of an Event of Default
hereunder (provided such Event of Default is continuing) or (iv) either (x) the

such Senior Indebtedness seek to realize, or foreclose on, any security interest
in capital stock, membership interests or other assets of the Companies or any
Subsidiary securing such Senior Indebtedness.

            (b) Except as provided in Section 9.8(a) hereof, nothing contained
in this Section 9 will limit the right of a holder of Notes to take any action
to accelerate the maturity of any Note or to pursue any rights or remedies under
any Note or the Purchase Agreement.

      9.9 Turnover; Miscellaneous Subordination Provisions.

            (a) If a payment or other distribution is made to any holder of

this Agreement should not have been made to it, such holder shall segregate such
payment or other distribution from its other funds and property and hold it in
trust for the benefit of, and upon written request, pay it over (in the same
form as received, with any necessary endorsement) to, the holders of Senior
Indebtedness as their interests may appear, or their agent or representative or
the trustee under the indenture or other agreements (if any) pursuant to which
Senior Indebtedness may have been issue, as their respective interests may
appear, for application (in the case of cash) to, or as collateral (in the case
of non-cash property or securities) for the payment or prepayment of, all
present and future obligations with respect to Senior Indebtedness remaining
unpaid to the extent necessary to pay such obligations in full in accordance
with their terms, after giving effect to concurrent payment or distribution to
or for the holders of Senior Indebtedness.

            (b) A distribution may consist of cash, securities or other
property, by set off or otherwise, and payment or distribution on account of any
obligations with respect to the holders of Subordinated Indebtedness shall
include any redemption, purchase or other acquisition of the Subordinated
Indebtedness.

            (c) For the purpose of this Section 9, all indebtedness now or
hereafter existing under the Senior Credit Facility shall not be deemed to have
been paid in full unless the holders or owners thereof shall have received
payment in full in cash or Cash Equivalents.

SECTION 12. EXCHANGE OF NOTES; ACCRUED INTEREST; CANCELLATION OF SURRENDERED
            NOTES; REPLACEMENT

            (a) Subject to Section 15 hereof, at any time at the request of any
holder of one or more of the Notes to Ubiquitel at its offices provided under
Section 7.7 hereof, Ubiquitel at its expense (except for any transfer tax or any
other tax arising out of the exchange) will issue and deliver to or upon the
order of the holder in exchange therefor new Notes, in such denomination or
denominations as such holder may request (which must be in denominations of
$500,000 or any larger multiple of $100,000, plus one Note in a lesser
denomination, if required), in aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid
principal amount of the Note or Notes surrendered and substantially in the form
thereof, dated as of the date to which interest has been paid on the Note or
Notes surrendered (or, if no interest has yet been so paid thereon, then dated
the date of the Note or Notes so surrendered) and payable to such person or
persons or order as may be designated by such holder. Any such new Note shall
bear any notation required by Section 11 hereof.

            (b) In the event that any Note is surrendered to Ubiquitel upon a
prepayment under Section 6 hereof, Ubiquitel shall pay all accrued and unpaid
interest on such Note or such portion thereof and thereupon interest shall cease
to accrue upon that portion of the principal amount of such Note which was
prepaid, and the right to receive, and any right or obligation to make, any
prepayment on such portion of the principal amount pursuant to Section 6 hereof
shall terminate all upon the date of such prepayment and upon presentation and
surrender of such Note to the Company.

            (c) Upon any prepayment under Section 6 hereof, if only a portion of
the principal amount of a Note is prepaid, then such Note shall be surrendered
to Ubiquitel and Ubiquitel shall simultaneously execute and deliver to or on the
order of the holder thereof, at the expense of Ubiquitel, a new Note or Notes in
principal amount equal to the unused or unpaid portion of such Note.

            (d) All Notes or portions thereof which have been prepaid under
Section 6 hereof, shall be canceled by Ubiquitel and no Notes shall be issued in
lieu of the principal amount prepaid.

            (e) Upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Ubiquitel of the loss,
theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note and, in the case of any such loss,
theft or destruction, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably
satisfactory to Ubiquitel (if requested by Ubiquitel and unsecured in the case
of the Purchaser or an institutional holder), or in the case of any such
mutilation, upon surrender of such Note (which surrendered Note shall be
canceled by Ubiquitel), Ubiquitel will issue a new Note of like tenor in lieu of
such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note as if the lost, stolen, destroyed
or mutilated Note were then surrendered for exchange.

      receipt of such notice, specifying the default referred to therein); or

      action in furtherance of any of the foregoing; or

                  (vii) (a) any provision of the Sprint Agreements shall cease
      to be in full force and effect or Sprint Corporation or any of its

      agreement and such cessation, denial or disaffirmance results in a
      Material Adverse Effect, (b) Sprint PCS shall exercise its right to
      purchase the Operating Assets under Section 11.6.1 of the Sprint
      Management Agreement (c) Sprint PCS shall exercise its rights with respect
      to the Disaggregated License under Section 11 .6.2 of the Sprint
      Management Agreement, (d) an Event of Termination shall occur or any event
      that if not cured or notice were to be given of such event would

      modify any Program Requirements (as defined in the Sprint Management
      Agreement), guidelines or policies set forth in the Sprint Agreements
      which the Majority Noteholders determine could reasonably be expected to
      have a material adverse effect on the performance, business, property,
      assets, nature of assets, liabilities, condition or prospects of UHC and
      its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that an Event of Default under this
      clause (vii) shall be deemed not to occur if at such time an event of
      default substantially comparable hereto shall be included in the Senior
      Credit Facility and such event of default shall be waived thereunder.

                  (b) If an Event of Default occurs pursuant to any of clauses
      (i) through (vii) of Section 13(a) hereof (but subject to the limitations
      contained in Section 9.8), then and in each such event any holder or
      holders of Notes which, at the time, holds or hold at least sixty percent
      (60%) in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may at
      any time (unless all Events of Default shall theretofore have been waived
      or remedied) at its or their option, by written notice or notices to the
      Company, declare all the Notes then held by such holder or holders to be
      due and payable. Upon any such declaration all Notes held by such holder
      or holders shall forthwith immediately mature and become due and payable,
      or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default pursuant to clause (vi) of
      Section 13(a) hereof with respect to Ubiquitel (in which case no
      declaration is required), all Notes shall forthwith immediately mature and
      become due and payable; in each case (referred to in this sentence) the
      payments then due and payable on such Notes shall consist of the entire
      unpaid principal amount thereof, together with interest accrued thereon
      and an amount equal to the "Additional Amount" (as defined below); all of
      the foregoing shall occur without presentment, demand, protest or notice,
      all of which are hereby waived. "Additional Amounts" shall mean, with
      respect to any Note, as of the date of repayment of such Note after such
      acceleration, an amount equal to (1) the Prepayment Premium that would be
      payable if Ubiquitel had elected to prepay such Note pursuant to Section
      6.3 hereof at the time of such acceleration; if an Event of Default
      pursuant to clause (i) of Section 13(a) has occurred, and (2) 50% of such
      Prepayment Premium, if an Event of Default pursuant to clause (i) of
      Section 13(a) has not occurred. However, the foregoing acceleration rights
      are subject to the following:

                                       45
<PAGE>

                  (i) if, at any time after the principal of any Notes shall so
            become due and payable and prior to the date of maturity stated in
            the Notes, all arrears of principal (excluding any principal which
            would not then be due and payable if the acceleration had not
            occurred) and interest on the Notes (with interest at the rate
            specified in the Notes on any overdue principal and any overdue
            premium and, to the extent legally enforceable, on any overdue
            interest) shall be paid to the holders of Notes by or for the
            account of Ubiquitel, then the Majority Noteholders, by written
            notice or notices to Ubiquitel, may waive such Event of Default and
            its consequences and rescind or annul any such declaration, but no
            such waiver shall extend to or affect any subsequent Event of
            Default or impair any right or remedy resulting therefrom;

                  (ii) if any holder or holders of Notes which, at the time,
            holds or hold at least sixty percent (60%) in aggregate principal
            amount of the Notes then outstanding exercises the above rights of
            acceleration, then Ubiquitel shall notify each other holder of Notes
            of the fact of such acceleration and each other holder shall,
            without limiting any other rights hereunder, (A) have the right for
            thirty (30) days after such notice from Ubiquitel to accelerate its
            own Notes based on the Event or Events of Default on which such
            acceleration was based (regardless of whether such Event or Events
            of Default are then continuing), unless at the time there are no
            outstanding Events of Default and any acceleration of any Notes has
            been rescinded or (B) be deemed automatically (without any action by
            such holder) to have accelerated its Notes if such holder has not
            received such notice of an acceleration from Ubiquitel within ten
            (10) days after such acceleration; provided that any such automatic
            acceleration may take place regardless of whether the Event or
            Events of Default on which the initial acceleration was based are
            then continuing but such automatic acceleration shall not take place
            if at the time any and all accelerations of any Notes have been
            rescinded or annulled pursuant to subparagraph (i) above or
            otherwise;

                  (iii) any holder may at any time rescind and annul any
            acceleration with respect to its own Notes; and

                  (iv) if any holder of a Note shall give any notice or take any
            other action with respect to a claimed Potential Default or Event of
            Default, Ubiquitel, forthwith upon receipt of such notice or
            obtaining knowledge of such other action, will give written notice
            thereof to all other holders of the Notes then outstanding,
            describing such notice or other action and the nature of the claimed
            Potential Default or Event of Default.

SECTION 14. REMEDIES

            (a) In case any one or more Events of Default shall occur and be
continuing, then any holder or holders of Notes which, at the time, holds or
hold at least sixty percent (60%) in aggregate principal amount of the Notes
then outstanding may, subject to the limitations

                                       46
<PAGE>

contained in Section 9.8, proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such
holder or holders by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate
proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained
herein or in such Note or Notes for an injunction against a violation of any of
the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted
hereby or thereby or by law or for any other remedy (including, without
limitation, damages). Nothing herein limits the rights and remedies of holders
of Shares.

            (b) In case of a default in the payment of any principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on any Note, or default in the observance of any
other agreement or covenant of Ubiquitel in a Purchase Agreement or in a Note,
Ubiquitel will pay to the holder thereof or party thereto, in addition to any
interest or premium otherwise required, such further amount as shall be
sufficient to cover any and all costs and expenses of enforcement and collection
including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses (whether
or not any suit or action is instituted and including without limitation those
fees and expenses permitted by statutory law and/or incurred at trial, on
appeal, on petition for review, in arbitration or mediation or in a bankruptcy
proceeding).

            (c) No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any holder of
any Note, Warrant or the Share or the Purchaser in exercising any rights or
remedies shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such holder's
or party's rights. No right or remedy conferred hereby or by any Note shall be
exclusive of any other right or remedy referred to herein or therein or
available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

            (d) Subject to Section 9, the Purchaser shall, in addition to other
remedies provided by law, have the right and remedy to have the provisions of
this Agreement (including without limitation Section 16 hereof) specifically
enforced by any court having equity jurisdiction, it being acknowledged and
agreed that any breach or threatened breach of the provisions of this Agreement
(including without limitation Section 16 hereof) will cause irreparable injury
to the Purchaser and that money damages will not provide an adequate remedy
subject to Section 9. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as prohibiting
the Purchaser from pursuing any other remedies available to the Purchaser for
such breach or threatened breach, including, without limitation, the recovery of
damages from Ubiquitel.

SECTION 15. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER

opinion(s) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Companies and which counsel

be conditioned upon the transferee's assuming the obligations of a holder of
Notes,

                                       47
<PAGE>

Warrants or Shares under this Section) or (iv) the Companies have been furnished
with a letter from the Division of Corporate Finance of the Commission to the

after receipt of any opinion referred to in (iii) above, they will notify the
holder supplying such opinion whether such opinion is satisfactory to the
Companies" counsel. Notes may be transferred only in Authorized Denominations.

            (b) Ubiquitel may endorse on all Notes, and UHC may endorse on all
Warrants and Share certificates a legend stating or referring to the transfer
restrictions contained in paragraph (a) above; provided that no such legend
shall be endorsed on any Notes, Warrants or Share certificates which, when
issued, are no longer subject to the restrictions of this Section 15; provided,
further, that if a transfer is made pursuant to clause (i), (ii) (other than
pursuant to Rule 144A) or (iv) of paragraph (a) or if an opinion of counsel
provided pursuant to clause (iii) of paragraph (a) concludes that the legend is
no longer necessary, the Companies will deliver upon transfer Notes, Warrants or
Share certificates, as the case may be, without such legends.

SECTION 16. EXPENSES

            (a) Whether or not the transactions herein contemplated are
consummated, the Companies will pay (i) the reasonable costs and expenses of the

costs of investigation) and damages and liabilities incurred by the Purchaser or
its agents pursuant to any investigation or proceeding against any or all of the
Companies, the Purchaser, or their agents, arising out of or in connection with
the Purchase Agreement, the Notes or the Warrants (or any transaction
contemplated hereby or thereby or any other document or instrument executed
herewith or therewith or pursuant hereto or thereto), whether or not the
transactions contemplated by this Purchase Agreement are consummated, which
investigation or proceeding requires the participation of the Purchaser or its
agents or is commenced or filed against the Purchaser or its agents because of
the Purchase Agreement, the Notes or the Warrants or any of the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby (or any other document or instrument executed
herewith or therewith or pursuant hereto or thereto), other than any
investigation or proceeding (x) in which it is finally determined that there was
gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Purchaser or its
agents which was not taken by them in reliance upon any of the Companies'
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in the Purchase Agreement,
the Notes or the Warrants or in any other documents or instruments contemplated
hereby or thereby or executed herewith or therewith or pursuant hereto or
thereto, (y) which relates to disputes among a Purchaser and its own partners,

suit, claim or proceeding (including any inquiry or investigation); provided,
however, that the Purchaser, or any such agent, shall have the right (without
releasing the Companies from any of its obligations hereunder) to employ its own
counsel and either to direct its own defense or to participate in the Companies'
defense, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of
such person unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized
in writing by the Companies in connection with such defense or (ii) the
Companies shall not have provided their counsel to take charge of such defense
or (iii) the Purchaser, or such agent of the Purchaser, shall have reasonably
concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them which are different
from or additional to those available to the Companies, then in any of such
events referred to in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) such counsel fees and expenses
(but only for one counsel for the Purchaser and its agents) shall be borne by
the Companies. Any settlement of any such action, suit, claim or proceeding
shall require the consent of both the Companies and such indemnified person
(neither of which shall unreasonably withhold its consent).

            (c) The Companies agree to pay, or to cause to be paid, all
documentary, stamp and other similar taxes levied under the laws of the United
States of America or any state or local taxing authority thereof or therein in

Purchase Agreements or any such other documents or instruments and will hold the
Purchaser harmless without limitation as to time against any and all liabilities
with respect to all such taxes.

survive the closing hereunder, the payment or cancellation of the Notes,
exercise or cancellation of the Warrants and the termination of the Purchase
Agreement.

SECTION 17. HOME OFFICE PAYMENTS

      As long as the Purchaser or any payee named in the Notes delivered to the
Purchaser on the Closing Date, or any institutional holder which is a direct or
indirect transferee from the Purchaser or such payee, shall be the holder of any
Note, Ubiquitel will make payments (whether at maturity, upon mandatory or

      19.10 Guarantee of Subsidiaries

                  (i) The Guarantee Any wholly-owned Subsidiary of Ubiquitel
      that may exist on or after the date hereof and that is incorporated under
      the laws of a state of the United States (collectively, the "Subsidiary
      Guarantors"), in order to induce the Purchaser to enter into this
      Agreement and to extend credit hereunder and in recognition of the direct
      benefits to be received by the Subsidiary Guarantors from the proceeds of
      the Notes, hereby agree with the Purchaser as follows: the Subsidiary
      Guarantors hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee as primary
      obligors and not merely as sureties the full and prompt payment when due,
      whether upon maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of any and all
      obligations of the Companies under this Purchase Agreement, the Notes, the
      Warrant and any other documents executed in connection (the "Guaranteed
      Ob1igations"); provided, however, that no wholly-owned Subsidiary of
      Ubiquitel shall be required to be a Subsidiary Guarantor if such
      wholly-owned Subsidiary is not at such time a guarantor or otherwise
      obligated under the Senior Indebtedness. If any or all of the indebtedness
      of the Companies to the Purchaser becomes due and payable, the Subsidiary
      Guarantors unconditionally promise to pay such indebtedness of the
      Companies to the Purchaser, or order, on demand, together with any and all
      reasonable expenses which may

                                       52
<PAGE>

      be incurred by the Purchaser in collecting any of the indebtedness,
      subject to the subordination provisions of this Agreement.

                  (ii) Bankruptcy. Additionally, the Subsidiary Guarantors
      unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee the payment of any and all
      indebtedness of the Companies to the Purchaser whether or not due or
      payable by the Companies upon the occurrence of any of the events
      specified in Section 9.3, and unconditionally and irrevocably promise to
      pay such indebtedness to the Purchaser, or order, on demand, in lawful
      money of the United States.

                  (iii) Nature of Liability. The liability of the Subsidiary
      Guarantors hereunder is exclusive and independent of any security for or
      other guarantee of the indebtedness of the Companies whether executed by
      the Subsidiary Guarantors, any other guarantor or by any other party, and
      the liability of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder shall not be affected
      or impaired by: (a) any direction as to application of payment by the
      Companies or by any other party; or (b) any other continuing or other
      guarantee, undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any other
      party as to the indebtedness of the Companies; or (c) any payment on or in
      reduction of any such other guarantee or undertaking; or (d) any
      dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by
      the Companies; or (e) any payment made to the Purchaser on the
      indebtedness which the Purchaser repays the Companies pursuant to court
      order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other
      debtor relief proceeding, and the Subsidiary Guarantors waive any right to
      the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason of any
      such proceeding.

                  (iv) Guarantee Absolute. No invalidity, irregularity or
      unenforceability of all or any part of the indebtedness guaranteed hereby
      or of any security therefor shall affect, impair or be a defense to this
      Guarantee contained in this Section 19.10, and this Guarantee contained in
      this Section 19.10 shall be primary, absolute and unconditional
      notwithstanding the occurrence of any event or the existence of any other
      circumstances which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a
      surety or guarantor except payment in full of the indebtedness guaranteed
      herein.

                  (v) Independent Obligation. The obligations of the Subsidiary
      Guarantors hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other
      guarantor or of the Companies, and a separate action or actions may be
      brought and prosecuted against the Subsidiary Guarantors whether or not
      action is brought against any other guarantor or the Companies and whether
      or not any other guarantor or any Companies be joined in any such action
      or actions. The Subsidiary Guarantors waive, to the fullest extent
      permitted by law, the benefit of any statue of limitations affecting its
      liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any payment by the
      Companies or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of
      limitations as to the Companies shall operate to toll the statute of
      limitations as to the Subsidiary Guarantors.

<PAGE>

                  (vi) Authorization. The Subsidiary Guarantors authorize the
      Purchaser without notice or demand, and without affecting or impairing its
      liability hereunder, from time to time to:(a) change the manner, place or
      terms of payment of, and/or change or extend the time of payment of,
      renew, increase, accelerate or alter, any of the indebtedness (including
      any increase or decrease in the rate of interest thereon), any security
      therefor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect
      thereof, and the guarantees herein made shall apply to the Guaranteed
      Obligations as so changed, extended, renewed or altered;(b) take and hold
      security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and sell, exchange,
      release, surrender, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner and
      in any order any property by whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged
      to secure, or howsoever securing, the Guaranteed Obligations or any
      liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or
      indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and/or any offset there
      against;(c) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the
      Companies or others or otherwise act or refrain from acting;(d) release or
      substitute any one or more endorsers, guarantors, the Companies or other
      obligors;(e) settle or compromise any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any
      security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder)
      incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may
      subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any
      liability (whether due or not) of the Companies to its creditors other
      than the Purchaser;(f) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever
      realized to any liability or liabilities of the Companies to the Purchaser
      regardless of what liability or liabilities of the Companies remain
      unpaid; and/or (g) consent to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission
      or default under, this Agreement or any of the instruments or agreements
      referred to herein, or otherwise amend, modify or supplement this
      Agreement or any of such other instruments or agreements.

                  (vii) Reliance. It is not necessary for the Purchaser to
      inquire into the capacity or powers of the Companies or the officers,
      directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on its behalf,
      and any indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed
      exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

                  (viii) Subordination. Any indebtedness of the Companies now or
      hereafter held by the Subsidiary Guarantors is hereby subordinated to the
      indebtedness of the Companies to the Purchaser; and such indebtedness of
      the Companies to the Subsidiary Guarantors, if the Purchaser, after an
      Event of Default has occurred, so requests, shall be collected, enforced
      and received by the Subsidiary Guarantors as trustee for the Purchaser and
      be paid over to the Purchaser on account of the indebtedness of the
      Companies to the Purchaser, but without affecting or impairing in any
      manner the liability of the Subsidiary Guarantors under the other
      provisions of this Guarantee. Prior to the transfer by any of the
      Subsidiary Guarantors of any note or negotiable instrument evidencing any
      Guaranteed Obligations of the Companies to the Subsidiary Guarantors, the
      Subsidiary Guarantors shall mark such note or negotiable instrument with a
      legend that the same is subject to this subordination. Without limiting
      the generality of the foregoing, he Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agree
      with the Purchaser that they will not exercise any right of subrogation
      which they may at any time otherwise have a result of

                                       54
<PAGE>

      this guarantee (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy
      Code, or otherwise) until all Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in
      full in cash (it being understood that the Subsidiary Guarantors is not
      waiving any right of subrogation that it may otherwise have but is only
      waiving the exercise thereof as provided above).

                  (ix) Waiver. (a) The Subsidiary Guarantors waive any right to
      require the Purchaser to (i) proceed against the Companies, any other
      guarantor or any other party, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security
      held from the Companies, any other guarantor or any other party or (iii)
      pursue any other remedy in the Purchaser's power whatsoever. The
      Subsidiary Guarantors waive any defense based on or arising out of any
      defense of the Companies, any other guarantor or any other party other
      than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, including without
      limitation any defense based on or arising out of the disability of the
      Companies, any other guarantor or any other party, or the unenforceability
      of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the
      cessation from any cause of the liability of the Companies other than
      payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Purchaser may exercise
      any other right or remedy the Purchaser may have against the Companies or
      any other party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability
      of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder except to the extent the Guaranteed
      Obligations have been paid. The Subsidiary Guarantors waive any defense
      arising out of any such election by the Purchaser, even though such
      election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or
      subrogation or other right or remedy of the Subsidiary Guarantors against
      the Companies or any other party or any security.(b) The Subsidiary
      Guarantors waive all presentments, demands for performance, protests and
      notices, including without limitation notices of nonperformance, notices
      of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Guarantee,
      and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional
      indebtedness. The Subsidiary Guarantors assume all responsibility for
      being and keeping itself informed of the financial condition and assets of
      the Companies, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of
      non-payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent
      of the risks which the Subsidiary Guarantors assumes and incurs hereunder,
      and agrees that the Purchaser shall have no duty to advise the Subsidiary
      Guarantors of information known to them regarding such circumstances or
      risks.

                  (i) Guarantee Continuing. This Guarantee is a continuing one
      and all liabilities to which it applies or may apply under the terms
      hereof shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance
      hereon. No failure or delay on the part of the Purchaser or of any holder
      of any Note in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall
      operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of
      any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further
      exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.
      The rights and remedies herein expressly specified are cumulative and not
      exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Purchaser or any subsequent
      holder of a Note would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on the
      Subsidiary Guarantors in any case shall entitle the Subsidiary Guarantors
      to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances
      or constitute a waiver of the

                                       55
<PAGE>

      rights of the Purchaser or any holder, creator or purchaser to any other
      or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

                  (ii) Binding Nature of Guarantee. This Guarantee shall be
      binding upon the Subsidiary Guarantors and their successors and assigns
      and shall inure to the benefit of the Purchaser and its successors and
      assigns.

                  (iii) Judgments Binding. If claim is ever made upon the
      Purchaser, any subsequent holder of a Note for repayment or recovery of
      any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the
      Guaranteed Obligations and any of the aforesaid payees repays all or part
      of said amount by reason of (a) any judgment, decree or order of any court
      or administrative body having jurisdiction over such payee or any of its
      property, or (b) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected
      by such payee with any such claimant (including the Companies) then and in
      such event the Subsidiary Guarantors agrees that any such judgment,
      decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon the
      Subsidiary Guarantors notwithstanding any revocation hereof or the
      cancellation of any Note, or other instrument evidencing any liability of
      the Companies, and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be and remain liable to
      the aforesaid payees hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to
      the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by
      any such payee.

                  (iv) Subordination of Rights of Purchaser. Notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary within this Section 19.10, the rights of
      Purchaser as against any and all Subsidiary Guarantors shall be
      subordinated, and subject in right of payment, to the prior payment in

      set forth in Section 9 hereof.

                                     WARRANT

                          Issue Date: December __, 1999
                          Void After: December __, 2009

This Warrant has been issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement dated as of
December __, 1999 (the "Purchase Agreement") among Ubiquitel Holdings, Inc. (the
"Company"), Ubiquitel, LLC and BET Associates, L.P., and this Warrant and the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise hereof (the "Warrant Shares")
shall be subject to, and entitled to the benefits of, the Purchase Agreement.

      THIS CERTIFIES that, for value received, ____________ (the "Holder"), is
entitled, upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, to
subscribe for and purchase from Ubiquitel Holdings, Inc., a Delaware
corporation, at the Exercise Price per share determined as provided herein, up
to _________ fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company's Voting Common
Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock").

      1. Definitions.

      Terms used herein but not defined shall have the meanings assigned to such
terms in the Purchase Agreement. As used herein the following terms, unless the
context otherwise requires, shall have for all purposes hereof the following
meanings:

      "Appraised Value" means, in respect of any share of Common Stock on any
date herein specified, the value attributable to such share of Common Stock if
all of the assets of the Company and the Subsidiaries were sold for the
appraised value thereof as of the last day of a fiscal month to end within 60
days prior to such date specified, and thereafter liquidated in accordance with
the terms of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation as determined in good
faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.

      "Business Day" means any day that is not (i) a Saturday or Sunday or (ii)
a day on which banks are required or permitted to be closed in the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania.

      "Current Market Price" means, in respect of the Common Stock on any date
herein specified, the average of the daily closing prices for the thirty (30)
consecutive trading days commencing forty five (45) trading days before such
date. The closing price for each day shall be the last reported sale price
regular way or, in case no such sale takes place on such day, the

                                      B-1
<PAGE>

average of the closing bid and asked prices regular way, in either case on the
principal national securities exchange or the NASDAQ National Market on which
the Company's Common Stock is listed or admitted to trading, or if the Company's
Common Stock is not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities
exchange or the NASDAQ National Market, the average of the highest reported bid
and lowest reported asked prices as furnished by the National Association of
Securities Dealers Inc. Automated Quotation System, or comparable system. If the
closing price cannot be so determined, then the Current Market Price shall be
determined (x) by the written agreement of the Company and the Holder, or (y) in
the event that no such agreement is reached within twenty (20) days after the
event giving rise to the need to determine the Current Market Price, by the
agreement of two arbitrators, one of whom shall be selected by the Company and
the other of whom shall be selected by the Holder.

      2. Exercise Period. The purchase rights represented by this Warrant are
exercisable by the Holder, in whole or in part, at any time from time to time
during the Exercise Period, which shall commence at December __, 1999 (the
"Issue Date's.) and shall end at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Standard time on December __,
2009.

      3. Exercise Price. The price per share at which this Warrant may be
exercised (the "Exercise Price") shall initially be $.01.

      4. Exercise of Warrant. During the Exercise Period, this Warrant may be
exercised, in whole or in part and from time to time, by the surrender of this
Warrant and the Notice of Exercise annexed hereto duly executed at the principal
office of the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may
designate) and upon payment of the Exercise Price of the shares thereby
purchased (the aggregate of the Exercise Price for all shares to be exercised
being referred to herein as the "Purchase Price"). Payment of the Purchase Price
may be made (i) by check or bank draft payable to the order of the Company, (ii)
by wire transfer to the account of the Company, or (iii) by delivery of this
Warrant with instructions that the Company retain as payment of the Purchase
Price the number of Warrant Shares remaining after distributing to the Holder
the number of shares determined by the formula in the next sentence (a "Cashless
Exercise"). In the event of a Cashless Exercise, the Holder shall receive the
number of Warrant Shares determined by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares
for which the Cashless Exercise is made by a fraction, the numerator of which
shall be the difference between the then Current Market Price per Warrant Share
and the Exercise Price, and the denominator of which shall be the then Current
Market Price per share of Common Stock. The remaining Warrant Shares for which
the Cashless Exercise has been made shall be deemed to have been paid by the
Company as the Exercise Price. Upon exercise, the Holder shall be entitled to
receive, promptly after payment in full, one or more certificates, issued in the
Holder's name or in such name or names as the Holder may direct, subject to the
limitations on transfer contained herein, for the number of shares of Common
Stock so purchased. The shares so purchased shall be deemed to be issued as of
the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been
exercised.

      5. Representations and Warranties.

      The Company represents and warrants to the Holder as follows:

                                      B-2
<PAGE>

            (a) Corporate Action. The Company has all requisite corporate power
and authority, and has taken all necessary corporate action, to execute and
deliver this Warrant, and to authorize and reserve for issuance, and to issue
and deliver upon payment of the Purchase Price, the Warrant Shares.

            (b) No Violation. Neither the execution nor delivery of this
Warrant, nor the consummation of the actions herein contemplated, nor compliance
with the terms and provisions hereof will conflict with, or result in a breach
of, or constitute a default or an event permitting acceleration under, any of
the terms, provisions or conditions of the Certificate of Incorporation or
Bylaws of the Company or any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, note, bank
loan, credit agreement, franchise, license, lease, permit, judgment, decree,
order, statute, rule or regulation or any other agreement, understanding or
instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound.

      6. Antidilution Adjustments.

            6.1. Adjustment of Exercise Price. The Exercise Price shall be
subject to adjustment, from time to time, as follows:

            (a) Adjustments for Stock Dividends, Recapitalizations, Etc. In case
the Company shall, after the Closing Date, (i) pay a stock dividend or make a
distribution (on or in respect of its Common Stock) in shares of its Common
Stock, (ii) subdivide the outstanding shares of its Common Stock, (iii) combine
the outstanding shares of its Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or
(iv) issue by reclassification of shares of its Common Stock, any shares of
capital stock of the Company, then, in any such case, the current Exercise Price
in effect immediately prior to such action shall be adjusted to a price such
that if the Holder was to exercise this Warrant in full immediately after such
action, such Holder would be entitled to receive the number of shares of capital
stock of the Company which Holder would have owned immediately following such
action had such Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto (with any
record date requirement being deemed to have been satisfied), and, in any such
case, such Exercise Price shall thereafter be subject to further adjustments
under this Section 6. An adjustment made pursuant to this subsection (a) shall
become effective retroactively immediately after the record date in the case of
a dividend or distribution and after the effective date in the case of a
subdivision, combination or reclassification.

            (b) Distribution of Assets. In case the Company shall declare and
make any distribution of its assets (including cash and evidence of
indebtedness) to holders of Common Stock as a dividend, by way of return of
capital or otherwise, then the Holder shall be entitled upon exercise of this
Warrant for the purchase of any or all of the Warrant Shares, to receive the
amount of such assets which would have been payable to the Holder had the Holder
been the holder of such shares of Common Stock subject to such exercise on the
record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to such distribution.

            (c) Adjustments for Issuances of Additional Stock. Subject to the
exceptions referred to in Section 6.1(e) hereof, in case the Company shall at
any time or from time to time after the Issue Date issue (in a transaction to
which Section 6.1(a) or 6.1(b) is not applicable) any

                                      B-3
<PAGE>

additional shares of the Company's Common Stock ("Additional Common Stock"), for
a consideration per share either (i) less than the then Current Market Price per
share of the Company's Common Stock immediately prior to the issuance of such
Additional Common Stock, or (ii) without consideration, then (in the case of
either clause (i) or (ii)), and thereafter successively upon each such issuance,
the current Exercise Price shall forthwith be reduced to the price determined by
multiplying such current Exercise Price by a fraction, of which (1) the
numerator shall be (i) the number of shares of the Company's Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (on a fully diluted basis) plus
(ii) the number of shares of the Company's Common Stock which the aggregate
amount of consideration received by the Company upon issuance of the Additional
Common Stock would purchase at the then Current Market Price per share of the
Company's Common Stock, and (2) the denominator shall be (i) the number of
shares of the Company's Common Stock outstanding plus (ii) the number of shares
of Additional Common Stock; provided, however, that such adjustment shall be
made only if such adjustment results in a current Exercise Price less than the
current Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such
Additional Common Stock.

            (d) Certain Rules in Applying the Adjustment for Additional Stock
Issuances. For purposes of any adjustment as provided in Section 6.1(c) hereof,
the following provisions shall also be applicable:

                  (1) Cash Consideration. In case of the issuance of Additional
      Common Stock for cash, the consideration received by the Company therefor
      shall be deemed to be the net cash proceeds received by the Company for
      such Additional Common, Stock after deducting any commissions or other
      expenses paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting of, or
      otherwise in connection with the issuance of, such Additional Common
      Stock.

                  (2) Non-Cash Consideration. In case of the issuance of
      Additional Common Stock for a consideration other than cash, or a
      consideration a part of which shall be other than cash, the amount of the
      consideration other than cash so received or to be received by the Company
      shall be deemed to be the value of such consideration at the time of its
      receipt by the Company as determined in good faith by the Board of
      Directors of the Company, except that where the non-cash consideration
      consists of the cancellation, surrender or exchange of outstanding
      obligations of the Company (or where such obligations are otherwise
      converted into shares of the Company's Common Stock), the value of the
      non-cash consideration shall be deemed to be the principal amount of the
      obligations canceled, surrendered, satisfied, exchanged or converted. If
      the Company receives consideration, part or all of which consists of
      publicly traded securities (i.e., in lieu of cash), the value of such
      non-cash consideration shall be the aggregate market value of such
      securities (based on the latest reported sale price regular way) as of the
      close of the day immediately preceding the date of their receipt by the
      Company.

                  (3) Options, Warrants, Convertibles, Etc. In case of the
      issuance, whether by distribution or sale to holders of its Common Stock
      or to others, by the Company of (i) any security that is convertible into
      Common Stock or (ii) any rights,

                                      B-4
<PAGE>

      options or warrants to purchase the Company's Common Stock (other than
      this Warrant and except as stated in Section 6.1(e) hereof), if inclusion
      thereof in calculating adjustments under this Section 6.1 would result in
      a current Exercise Price lower than if excluded, the Company shall be
      deemed to have issued, for the consideration described below, the number
      of shares of the Company's Common Stock into which such convertible
      security may be converted when first convertible, or the number of shares
      of the Company's Common Stock deliverable upon the exercise of such
      rights, options or warrants when first exercisable, as the case may be
      (and such shares shall be deemed to be Additional Common Stock for
      purposes of Section 6.1(c) hereof). The consideration deemed to be
      received by the Company at the time of the issuance of such convertible
      securities or such rights, options or warrants shall be the consideration
      so received determined as provided in Section 6.1(d)(1) and (2) hereof
      after deducting any commissions or other expenses paid or incurred by the
      Company for any underwriting of, or otherwise in connection with, the
      issuance of such convertible securities or rights, options or warrants,
      plus (x) any consideration or adjustment payment to be received by the
      Company in connection with such conversion or, as applicable, (y) the
      aggregate price at which shares of the Company's Common Stock are to be
      delivered upon the exercise of such rights, options or warrants when first
      exercisable (or, if no price is specified and such shares are to be
      delivered at an option price related to the market value of the subject
      Common Stock, an aggregate option price bearing the same relation to the
      market value of the subject Common Stock at the time such rights, options
      or warrants were granted). If, subsequently, (1) such number of shares
      into which such convertible security is convertible, or which are
      deliverable upon the exercise of such rights, options or warrants, is
      increased or (2) the conversion or exercise price of such convertible
      security, rights, options or warrants is decreased, then the calculations
      under the preceding two sentences (and any resulting adjustment to the
      current Exercise Price under Section 6.1(c) hereof) with respect to such
      convertible security, rights, options or warrants, as the case may be,
      shall be recalculated as of the time of such issuance but giving effect to
      such changes (but any such recalculation shall not result in the current
      Exercise Price being higher than that which would be calculated without
      regard to such issuance). On the expiration or termination of such rights,
      options or warrants, or rights to convert, the Exercise Price hereunder
      shall be readjusted (up or down as the case may be) to such current
      Exercise Price as would have been obtained had the adjustments made with
      respect to the issuance of such rights, options, warrants or convertible
      securities been made upon the basis of the delivery of only the number of
      shares of the Company's Common Stock actually delivered upon the exercise
      of such rights, options or warrants or upon the conversion of any such
      securities and at the actual exercise or Exercise Prices (but any such
      recalculation shall not result in the current Exercise Price being higher
      than that which would be calculated without regard to such issuance).

                  (4) Number of Shares Outstanding. The number of shares of the
      Company's Common Stock as at the time outstanding shall exclude all shares
      of the Company's Common Stock then owned or held by or for the account of
      the Company but shall include the aggregate number of shares of the
      Company's Common Stock at the time deliverable in respect of the
      convertible securities, rights, options and warrants

                                      B-5
<PAGE>

      referred to in Section 6.1 (d)(3) and 6.1(e) hereof, provided that to the
      extent that such rights, options, warrants or conversion privileges are
      not exercised, such shares of the Company's Common Stock shall be deemed
      to be outstanding only until the expiration dates of the rights, warrants,
      options or conversion privileges or the prior cancellation thereof.

            (e) Exclusions from the Adjustment for Additional Stock Issuances.
No adjustment of the current Exercise Price under Section 6.1(c) hereof shall be
made as a result of or in connection with:

                  (1) the issuance of Shares upon exercise of this Warrant;

                  (2) the issuance of the Company's Common Stock to officers,
      employees, directors and consultants of the Company or any Subsidiary, or
      the grant to or exercise by any such persons of options to purchase Common
      Stock of the Company, all (x) as part of incentive compensation for such
      persons and (y) pursuant to the Company's stock option plans described on
      the Disclosure Schedule to the Purchase Agreement or other incentive
      plans, in each case adopted by the Company's Board of Directors, with
      approval by a majority of the Company's independent directors and approval
      by the Company's shareholders;

                  (3) the issuance of the Company's Common Stock upon exercise
      of this Warrant to purchase Common Stock issued to [Banque Paribas] dated
      as of the date hereof, or

                  (4) the issuance of the Company's Common Stock upon conversion
      of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock.

            (f) Accountant's Certification. Whenever the current Exercise Price
is adjusted as provided in this Section 6.1, the Company will promptly obtain a
certificate of a firm of independent public accountants of recognized national
standing selected by the Board of Directors of the Company (who may be the
regular auditors of the Company) setting forth the current Exercise Price as so
adjusted, the computation of such adjustment and a brief statement of the facts
accounting for such adjustment, and will mail to the Holder a copy of such
certificate from such firm of independent public accountants.

            (g) Antidilution Adjustments under Other Securities. Without
limiting any other rights available hereunder to the Holder, if there is an
antidilution adjustment (x) under any security which is convertible into Common
Stock of the Company whether issued prior to or after the date hereof (except
for this Warrant) or (y) under any right, option or warrant to purchase Common
Stock of the Company whether issued prior to or after the date hereof which (in
the case of clause (x) or (y)) results in a reduction in the exercise or
purchase price with respect to such security, right, option or warrant or
results in an increase in the number of shares obtainable under such security,
right, option or warrant, then an adjustment shall be made under this Section
6.1(g) to the current Exercise Price hereunder. Any such adjustment under this
Section 6.1(g) shall be whichever of the following results in a lower current
Exercise Price: (A) a

                                      B-6
<PAGE>

reduction in the current Exercise Price equal to the percentage reduction in
such exercise or purchase price with respect to such security, right, option or
warrant or (B) a reduction in the current Exercise Price which will result in
the same percentage increase in the number of Warrant Shares available under
this Warrant as the percentage increase in the number of shares available under
such security, right, option or warrant. Any such adjustment under this Section
6.1(g) shall only be made if it would result in a lower current Exercise Price
than that which would be determined pursuant to any other antidilution
adjustment otherwise required under this Warrant as a result of the event or
circumstance which triggered the adjustment to the security, right, option or
warrant described in clause (x) or (y) above (and if any such adjustment is so
made under this Section 6.1(g), then such other antidilution adjustment
otherwise required under this Section 6 shall not be made as a result of such
event or circumstance).

            (h) Other Adjustments. In case any event shall occur as to which any
of the provisions of this Section 6.1 are not strictly applicable but the
failure to make any adjustment would not fairly protect the exercise rights
represented by this Warrant in accordance with the essential intent and
principles of this Section 6.1, then, in each such case, the Company shall
appoint a firm of independent public accountants of recognized national standing
selected by the Board of Directors of the Company (who may be the regular
auditors of the Company), which shall give their opinion upon the adjustment, if
any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles established
in this Section 6.1, necessary to preserve, without dilution, the exercise
rights represented by this Warrant. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company
will promptly mail copies thereof to the Holder and shall make the adjustments
described therein.

            (i) Adjustment of Number of Warrant Shares. Whenever the Exercise
Price payable upon exercise of this Warrant is adjusted pursuant to this Section
6.1 (and "Exercise Price Adjustment"), the number of Warrant Shares purchasable
upon exercise of this Warrant shall simultaneously be adjusted by multiplying
the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately
prior to such Exercise Price Adjustment by the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such Exercise Price Adjustment dividing the product so
obtained by the Exercise Price, as adjusted pursuant to this Section 6.1.

            (j) Meaning of "Issuance". References in this Warrant to "issuances"
of stock by the Company include issuances by the Company of previously unissued
shares and issuances or other transfers by the Company of treasury stock.

            6.2. Company's Consolidation or Merger. If the Company shall at any
time consolidate with or merge with or into another Person, or the Company shall
sell, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its assets, or the Company
shall change its Common Stock into property or other securities, then, in any
such case, the Holder shall thereupon (and thereafter) be entitled to receive,
upon the exercise of such Warrant, in whole or in part, the securities or other
property to which (and upon the same terms and with the same rights as) the
Holder would have been entitled if such exercise had occurred immediately prior
to such consolidation or merger, such sale of assets or such change (with any
record date requirement being deemed to have been satisfied), and such
conversion rights shall thereafter continue to be subject to further adjustments
under Section 6.1 hereof. The Company shall take such steps in connection with

                                      B-7
<PAGE>

such consolidation or merger, such sale of assets or such change as may be
necessary to assure such Holder that the provisions of this Warrant and the
Purchase Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 15 of the Purchase
Agreement) shall thereafter be applicable in relation to any securities or
property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrant, including, but
not limited to, obtaining a written obligation to supply such securities or
property upon such exercise and to be so bound by the Warrant.

            6.3. Notice to Holders.

                  In case at any time

                  (i) the Company shall take any action which would require an
      adjustment in the current Exercise Price pursuant to Section 6.1; or

                  (ii) there shall be any reorganization, reclassification or
      change of the Company's Common Stock (other than a change in par value or
      from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value), or any
      consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party and for which
      approval of any stockholders of the Company is required, or any sale,
      transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the assets of the
      Company; or

                  (iii) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
      liquidation or winding-up of the Company, then, in any one or more of such
      cases, the Company shall give written notice to the Holder, not less than
      twenty (20) days before any record date or other date set for definitive
      action, of the date on which such action, distribution, reorganization,
      reclassification, change, sale, transfer, lease, consolidation, merger,
      dissolution, liquidation or winding-up shall take place, as the case may
      be. Such notice shall also set forth such facts as shall indicate the
      effect of any such action (to the extent such effect may be known at the

Executive Officer, and Employee desires to serve in such capacity on behalf of
the Company.

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual
covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the Company and Employee hereby
agree as follows:

      1.    Employment.

            (a) Term. This Agreement begins on the date hereof, and terminates
on the date three years from the date hereof, unless sooner terminated by either
party as hereinafter provided.

foregoing shall not be construed as preventing Employee from investing his
assets in such form or manner as will not require any significant services on
his part in the operation of the affairs of the businesses or entities in which
such investments are made; provided, however, that Employee shall not invest in
any business competitive with the Company, except that Employee shall be
permitted to own not more than 5% of he stock of those companies whose

Company's common stock that as of the date of this Agreement the Company has
reserved for management employees generally). The Company hereby grants an
option to purchase such stock, at the option price of $1.00 per share, with

this Agreement shall preclude the Company or any affiliate of the Company from
terminating or amending any employee benefit plan or program from time to time
after the effective date of this Agreement.

      5.    Termination.

            (a) Termination by the Company.

cure more promptly than such thirty (30) day period would result in a material
adverse effect on the Company, in which case that cure period shall be equal to
the time required to avoid a material adverse effect on the Company; or

                        (ii) misconduct, including but not limited to

      In consideration of the employment of Employee, and the compensation,

and valuable considerations, the Company and Employee agree as follows:

services and ancillary services (the "Business").

      Confidentiality. Employee acknowledges and understands that Employee will
be given access to certain confidential, secret and proprietary information and
materials owned by the Company or which relate to the Company's Business,
including but not limited to, all information not generally known to the public
that relates to the business, technology, subscribers, finances, plans,
proposals or practices of the Company, and it includes, without limitation, the
identity of all actual and prospective subscribers and customers, customer
lists, files and all information relating to individual customers and
subscribers, including their address and phone numbers, all business plans and
proposals, all marketing plans and proposals, all technical plans and proposals,
all research and development, all budgets, wage and salary information, and
projections, all nonpublic financial information, information on suppliers, and
information on all persons for whom the Company performs services or to whom the
Company makes sales during the course of the Company's business, and all other
information the Company designates as "confidential" (hereafter the
"Confidential Information"). The Company and Employee each acknowledge and agree
that all Confidential Information shall be considered trade secrets of the
Company and shall be entitled to all protections given by law to trade secrets.
Employee shall not disclose any Confidential Information, or use it for any
purpose, other than in advancing the business interests of the Company.
Confidential Information shall apply to every form in which information shall
exist, whether written, film, tape, computer disk or other form of media,
including original materials and any copies thereof.

      Immediately upon termination of employment with the Company for any
reason, Employee shall deliver to the Company all property of the Company,
including but not limited to Confidential Information, all books, records, notes
or other writings or media containing any Confidential Information, and all
copies thereof. Employee shall also, unless otherwise directed in writing by the
Company, promptly erase all Confidential Information from all computers and
other information storage devices and media under Employee's direct or indirect
control, or return such devices or media to the Company.

      Covenant Not to Compete. Employee agrees that, during the term of
Employee's employment and for a period of one year immediately following the
termination of such employment for any reason whatsoever (the "Restricted
Period"), Employee shall not, either directly or indirectly, with or without
compensation, individually or as employee, broker, agent,

                                       7

consultant, contractor, advisor, solicitor, greater than 5% stockholder, trust
beneficiary, proprietor, partner, or person interested in, affiliated with or
rendering services to any other entity, engage in, provide, offer to provide, or
assist anyone in providing, services to or for a business that provides wireless
telecommunications services similar to those services offered by the Company in
any territory in which the Company is a Sprint PCS affiliate.

during that portion of the Restricted Period following termination, Employee
shall not interfere with the established business relationship between the
Company and its Customers, shall not call upon any Customer of the Company's
Business for the purpose of soliciting, selling, providing or delivering
services or products of the kind which are the subject of the Company's
Business, and shall not render or provide any service to any Customer, including
any person who was a Customer of the Company during the time that Employee was
employed, with the Company, that is the same as or similar to the service
provided in the Company's Business, Employee further agrees that during the
Restricted Period, neither Employee nor any person or entity otherwise connected
with Employee shall act, directly or indirectly, as a reseller of any such
services in the area.

      Employee further agrees that while employed by the Company and during the
Restricted Period, Employee shall not directly or indirectly induce or attempt
to influence any employee of the Company to terminate his/her employment with
the Company or to work for Employee or any other person or entity.

      Reasonableness of Restrictions. Employee acknowledges that the
restrictions contained in this Agreement are reasonable in time, scope and
geographic restraints, and do not unreasonably restrict Employee's ability to
obtain other employment. Employee further warrants that the restrictions do not
impose an undue hardship on Employee, and do not deprive Employee of an ability
to earn a living.

      Remedies for Breach of Covenants. In the event of any breach or threatened
breach of any of the provisions herein, in addition to any other rights or
remedies available to the Company, the Company shall have the right to seek
monetary damages and equitable relief, including specific performance by means
of temporary, preliminary or permanent injunctions against Employee or against
Employee's partners, agents, representatives, servants, employers, employees,
family members and/or any and all persons acting directly or indirectly by or
with Employee, to prevent or restrain such breach. With respect to any such
equitable actions or proceedings, Employee agrees that no adequate legal remedy
exists, and hereby waives any defense that an adequate remedy at law exists and
any requirement that the Company prove damages. Employee further waives any
requirement that the Company furnish any bond or other security, and agrees that
to the extent a bond is required by law, it shall be in the amount of $100.00.
Employee agrees that the Company's rights to seek injunctive and other equitable
relief shall be and are cumulative and not exclusive and shall be in addition to
any other remedies that the Company may have.

                                       8

laws of the State of Delaware. If any action is necessary to enforce or
Interpret the terms of this Agreement, each party shall bear such party's own
expenses of litigation, including without limitation, attorneys and experts fees

      Business Opportunities. Employee agrees that he shall promptly disclose to
the Company any business opportunity of which Employee becomes aware during his
employment with the Company which relates to any product or services planned,
under development, developed, produced or marketed by the Company and which
employee becomes aware in the course of or as a result of Employee's employment
with the Company. Employee agrees that he will not take advantage of or divert
any such opportunity for the direct or indirect gain, profit or benefit of
Employee or any other person or entity.

      Other Restrictions. Employee warrants that he/she is not subject to any
restrictive covenants or other legal disability, which would prevent Employee
from entering into this Agreement and from complying with its provisions to
their fullest extent. Employee understand and agrees that Employee is not
expected to, and shall not disclose trade secret or confidential information
from any previous employer or any other party.
