(b) Until such time as Sprint and its Related Parties acquires 100% of the voting stock of Nextel Partners, Nextel Partners will not have access to any Confidential Information.

(e) The parties acknowledge that for purposes of this Agreement (and only for purposes of this Agreement), Nextel Partners shall not be considered to be a “Related Party” of Sprint or Nextel until such time as it becomes a Subsidiary of Sprint. The parties agree that the preceding sentence addresses only the use of the term “Related Party” in this Agreement and has no bearing on the separate issue of whether Nextel Partners will be a “Related Party” of Sprint under the Management Agreements any time after the Sprint-Nextel Merger closes. Thus, this Section shall not be used in any proceeding in an attempt to argue or prove whether Nextel Partners is or will be a “Related Party” of Sprint under the Management Agreements.
