Handset Handling Services Clause Samples

Handset Handling Services. VMU will be responsible for making its own arrangements to purchase compatible, Sprint PCS-certified and approved handsets from authorized manufacturers or handset fulfillment vendors as specified in the Operations Manual. Sprint PCS may, from time to time, offer to VMU the handset handling and logistics services set forth in the Operations Manual and VMU, if VMU uses those services, will pay for those services as negotiated by the Parties under commercially reasonable terms. Where permitted under contract and commercially reasonable, Sprint PCS will enable VMU to leverage Sprint PCS’ existing terms with equipment vendors. VMU will be solely responsible for all handset acquisition, handling and distribution. VMU will be responsible for making its own arrangements to purchase accessories from manufacturers selected by VMU and arrange for delivery of those accessories directly to VMU. Sprint PCS will not provide any handling or logistics services with respect to accessories unless expressly agreed by the Parties. Sprint PCS may, in its sole discretion, increase, decrease or discontinue the handset handling services that it provides to VMU, upon reasonable prior notice to VMU. Sprint PCS will not be responsible for the handsets except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. With respect to handset certification and approval services, Sprint PCS will not arbitrarily or capriciously discriminate against VMU and any disparate treatment will be based on Sprint PCS’ reasonable analysis of factors such as: projected volumes of sale of devices for which certification and approval is sought, prior performance against similar past projections, anticipated financial impact to Sprint PCS from sales of devices (and associated services) for which certification and approval is sought, technical and logistical constraints including capacity limitations and those Sprint PCS internal efforts that are given priority for reason of competitive advantage in the wireless industry, market differentiation, technology migration or replacement of deselected or malfunctioning devices.
