Section 4.7 Team Members. SNC shall use the following subcontractors, herein “Team Members,” for
the portions of the Work substantially in accordance with the forms of statements of work for
these subcontractors that have been presented by SNC to ORBCOMM: ITT Industries Space Systems,
LLC;
The Boeing Company, MicroSat Systems (“MSI”); COM DEV Europe LTD (provided that within thirty (30)
days of the Effective Date, SNC may, with notice to ORBCOMM, substitute Argon ST, Inc. for some or
all of the Work specified to be performed by Com DEV Europe LTD, [* * *]); The PTR Group; and, if
SNC will be providing the Launches for the Satellites, its Launch Subcontractor. SNC shall be
responsible for all acts and omissions of its subcontractors, including Team Members, the same as
SNC would be responsible hereunder for its own acts and omissions in performing the Work.
Section 4.8 Launch Option. Not later than ninety (90) days from the Effective Date, SNC shall
present ORBCOMM, in writing, with an option pursuant to which, if accepted by ORBCOMM, SNC shall
provide launches for the Satellites in the Initial Order. The option shall be available for
exercise for a minimum of thirty (30) days from delivery to ORBCOMM, during which time, if ORBCOMM
is interested in exercising the option, the parties shall negotiate in good faith changes in this
Agreement as necessary or appropriate to implement the same. The addition of such Launch
responsibilities to this Agreement shall not be effective without a mutually agreeable written
amendment to this Agreement executed by SNC and ORBCOMM. If proceeding with the proposed option
would reduce any Team Member’s pricing to SNC, SNC shall so notify ORBCOMM and such savings shall
be shared [* * *], subject to implementation in the same manner as savings under Section 5.2(c)
below.
Section 4.9 Secondary Payload Option. SNC shall prepare and present to ORBCOMM a complete
cost-benefit analysis including any schedule and performance impacts due to a secondary payload
opportunity, as well as any mutually beneficial potential business models. Following a detailed
review of all the trade-offs and approval of ORBCOMM (which approval may be given or withheld in
ORBCOMM’s sole discretion) to incorporate such a secondary payload into the baseline at the right
point in time for any particular satellite Shipset(s), SNC will propose a modified baseline
configuration that would minimize potential risks to the program and have the least impact on the
original baseline. Upon the prior written approval of a contract change by ORBCOMM, SNC will then
proceed to implement a secondary payload in the modified program baseline.
Section 4.10 Expansion of MSI’s Facilities. Supplier shall cause MSI to complete and make
operational new facilities to be employed for the bus and integration activities to be performed by
MSI for the Project not later than September 30, 2008. Said facilities shall have sufficient space

Section 5.3
— Invoicing; U.S. Dollars. For all invoices for progress payments, Milestones and/or
time and material tasks (e.g., for “Costs” where applicable hereunder), SUPPLIER shall provide a
certificate,
signed by the Vice President of Finance/Contracts or Controller of SUPPLIER or by any other officer
designated by the Vice President of Finance/Contracts or Controller of SUPPLIER, certifying the
accuracy of the invoice and, if applicable, the Costs incurred that are the subject of the
respective invoice. Fixed Price invoices will be submitted following Successful Completion of the
Milestones in Section 5.1 above. For Cost tasks, the monthly invoices shall include, but not be
limited to, a listing of labor Costs, material invoices, and other Costs sufficient as to enable
ORBCOMM to fully comprehend the total charges being invoiced by SUPPLIER and confirm compliance
herewith. Invoices shall be submitted to the following addresses:
ORBCOMM Inc
Attn: Xxxx Xxxxxxxx, Vice President, Space Segment Engineering
00000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxx.
Xxxxxx, XX 00000, and
ORBCOMM Inc.
Attn: Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx, Chief Financial Officer
0000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx
Xxxx Xxx, XX 00000
, or to such other address as ORBCOMM may specify on notice to SUPPLIER.
ORBCOMM shall pay invoices within thirty-five (35) days from the date of the invoice; provided that
such invoice meets the requirement of this Section 5.3. All undisputed fees not paid within ten
(10) days of the due date shall bear interest at the annual percentage rate of nine percent (9%),
or at the highest rate allowed by law, whichever is less (the “Contract Interest Rate”), from the
date due until paid. The foregoing notwithstanding, interest shall not accrue without SUPPLIER
first giving ORBCOMM a written demand for late payment, expressly stating that SUPPLIER intends to
charge interest and ORBCOMM failing to make any undisputed payment subject to such demand letter
within five (5) days of notice thereof.
All payment obligations are expressed herein and shall be paid by United States dollars.
In any circumstances in which payments are to be made by SUPPLIER to ORBCOMM hereunder, the
above provisions shall apply in reverse mutatis mutandis.
Section 5.4 — Milestone Achievement.
(a) A Milestone shall be deemed achieved upon the Successful Completion by SUPPLIER that the
Work that is the subject of the Milestone has been Successfully Completed in accordance with the
requirements of this Agreement, and that all conditions established by this Agreement as
prerequisites to payment of the invoice have been fulfilled as defined in Exhibit A, Statement of
Work and Specifications.
(b) In the event that SUPPLIER fails to Successfully Complete a Milestone on or before the
scheduled completion date shown in the Work Schedule, ORBCOMM may withhold payment of the
applicable amounts specified for such Milestone until such time as SUPPLIER achieves such Milestone
or obtains a waiver in writing from ORBCOMM for such achievement. SUPPLIER’s failure to timely
complete any Milestone shall not relieve ORBCOMM from its obligation to pay for other achieved
Milestones.
Page 12
(c) If the Milestone event for which any invoices have been submitted has not been
Successfully Completed in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement or that any condition
established by
this Agreement as prerequisite to payment (including, without limitation, the requirements of the
invoice itself) has not been fulfilled, ORBCOMM shall provide SUPPLIER written exceptions within
fourteen (14) days after receipt of the invoice, specifying in detail the non-conformance. The
applicable payments shall be made within five (5) Business Days after ORBCOMM’s receipt of
SUPPLIER’s response, in writing, addressing in detail each of ORBCOMM’s exceptions and
demonstrating Successful Completion of the applicable Milestone or other conformity with invoice or
other requirements for payment; provided however, if ORBCOMM reasonably concludes that SNC’s
response to ORBCOMM’s exceptions to be non-responsive or not to demonstrate such Successful
Completion or to cure other non-compliance (in any case, “Non-Responsive”) and so notifies SNC as
provided in Subsection 5.4(d) below, ORBCOMM shall have the right, at its good faith discretion, to
defer any unpaid amount of the relevant payment until the resolution of the matter as described in
Subsection 5.4(d) below; provided, further that, in the event of a bona fide dispute, ORBCOMM
shall, within thirty (30) days of SNC’s written request, deposit the disputed amount into an
interest bearing escrow account that shall provided for payment to SNC (with accrued interest) if
and to the extent that SNC is determined to have been entitled to payment at the time of its
earlier disputed invoice.
(d) In the event ORBCOMM concludes that SUPPLIER has been Non-Responsive to ORBCOMM‘s
exception to an invoice, ORBCOMM shall notify SUPPLIER thereof in writing (the “Exception
Notification”) within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of SUPPLIER’s response to ORBCOMM
written exception. The Exception Notification shall (A) specify in reasonable detail the reason(s)
ORBCOMM believes SUPPLIER’s response to be Non-Responsive, and (B) advise SUPPLIER formally that
ORBCOMM intends to withhold payment on that basis. On receipt of an Exception Notification from
ORBCOMM, SUPPLIER shall have thirty (30) days to demonstrate the achievement of the relevant
Milestone and/or satisfaction of any other contractual requirement. If SUPPLIER is unable to make
such a demonstration, ORBCOMM shall have the right to defer payment as provided above. If SUPPLIER
continues to dispute the ORBCOMM assertions of non-compliance, either party may, at any time after
the filing of the SUPPLIER additional response as permitted by this Section 5.4(d), submit the
matter to be resolved by the disputes procedure as provided in Section 15.4 hereof.
Section 5.5 — Accounting Review of Submitted Invoices. For the application of Section 5.2(c)
hereof and for Agreement changes or Work performed on a Cost basis, in order to assure ORBCOMM that
the invoices that are submitted accurately reflect (i) the actual incurred Costs for materials,
invoices and travel and (ii) the correct labor rates to be invoiced under the terms of this
Agreement, upon ORBCOMM’s request, upon reasonable notice, SUPPLIER shall make available for
inspection at all reasonable times by an independent accounting firm, to be selected by ORBCOMM,
and subject to the consent of SUPPLIER not to be unreasonably withheld, SUPPLIER’s books and
records as they relate to this Agreement, for accounting review. In the event that the independent
accounting firm determines that ORBCOMM was overcharged, the amount of the overcharge, plus
interest at the Contract Interest Rate from the date of overpayment, shall be refunded to ORBCOMM
within five (5) Business Days from the date of notification by the independent accounting firm. In
addition, if the accounting review shows that SUPPLIER’s charges under review to be more than five
percent (5%) in excess of the charges that should have been invoiced to ORBCOMM, SUPPLIER shall
reimburse ORBCOMM for the Costs of the accounting review. SUPPLIER shall maintain all books and
records necessary to support its invoices to ORBCOMM for a minimum of five (5) years following the
date of relevant invoice.

ARTICLE 7 — ACCESS AND ACCEPTANCE
Section 7.1 — Access. Subject to the receipt of any and all required governmental approvals,
ORBCOMM and its consultants and advisors shall have the right, on a not-to-interfere basis, during
normal business hours (and, subject to reasonable coordination efforts as appropriate under the
circumstances, all other times that Work is being performed at the relevant facility) during the
performance of this Agreement, to monitor and have access to the Work in progress (including
without limitation all test activities with access to related computer program information) at the
plant(s) of SUPPLIER and its Major Subcontractors. SUPPLIER shall use all commercially reasonable
efforts to incorporate this access right in all of its subcontracts.
Section 7.2 — Inspection and Acceptance.
(a) ORBCOMM shall, within fifteen (15) Business Days after being notified that a Satellite is
ready for the Pre-Shipment Review, conduct an inspection of the Satellite in accordance with
Section 5.4.3.1 of the SOW or, at ORBCOMM’s option, witness such inspection by SUPPLIER and shall
either approve it for acceptance in writing within five (5) Business Days or promptly notify
SUPPLIER in writing of the particulars in which they are non-conforming with the applicable
Specifications within five (5) Business Days. ORBCOMM shall within fifteen (15) Business Days
after being notified that a satellite is ready for the Launch Readiness Review, conduct an
inspection of the Satellite in accordance with Section 5.4.3.2 of the SOW to confirm that damage
has not occurred during shipment and shall either accept a Satellite in writing within five (5)
Business Days or promptly notify SUPPLIER in writing of the particulars in which it was damaged.
Corrections required to render the Satellites in conformance with the applicable Specifications
shall be made by SUPPLIER at its cost and in the manner as the parties shall reasonably agree.
Prior to Launch, any portion of the Satellites found to be non-conforming during or after testing
performed under this Agreement shall, at ORBCOMM’s request and without charge to ORBCOMM, be
retested by SUPPLIER after SUPPLIER has remedied the non-conformance. ORBCOMM may be assisted in
all inspections by its consultants or advisors. All inspections and tests by ORBCOMM and retests
by SUPPLIER shall be performed in such a manner as not to unduly delay the Work and in accordance
with the SOW. If practical, all testing and corrections to be made post-shipment to the Launch
Site shall be made without re-shipment to SUPPLIER’s facilities, to SUPPLIER. If not, the cost of
re-shipment to and from SUPPLIER facilities, including insurance and risk of loss, while in transit
and while at SUPPLIER’s facilities, shall be borne by SUPPLIER. For the avoidance of doubt,
ORBCOMM’s acceptance shall not relieve SUPPLIER of its warranty obligations through the Warranty
Period.
Page 14
Section 7.3. — Corrections in Unlaunched Satellites and Unused Launch Vehicles. If before the end
of the Warranty Period specified in Section 10, either SUPPLIER or ORBCOMM becomes aware that
Defects exist in any Unlaunched Satellites as a result of the operation or testing of in-orbit
satellites (including any Satellite in ORBCOMM’s possession), other launches, or otherwise,
including (without limitation) any event that would cause the representation given under Section
10.1 to be untrue, if restated, then the
following shall occur: (i) if the discovery is made by SUPPLIER, SUPPLIER shall notify promptly
ORBCOMM of such Defects, and SUPPLIER shall take prompt and appropriate corrective measures to
eliminate any such Defects from all Unlaunched Satellites, or (ii) if the discovery is made by
ORBCOMM, ORBCOMM shall notify promptly SUPPLIER of such Defects, and SUPPLIER shall be obligated
within ten (10) days to verify and respond to the ORBCOMM notification of Defects in the Unlaunched
Satellites, and SUPPLIER shall take prompt and appropriate corrective measures to eliminate any
such Defects from all Unlaunched Satellites. The decision how to correct the Defects shall be
subject to the prior written approval of ORBCOMM, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or
delayed.
Section 7.4.
— Post-IOT Support. In the event that any Flight Satellite, after Launch, does not
operate in accordance with the Specifications, SUPPLIER, with the assistance of ORBCOMM, shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to investigate such failure and to develop work-around solutions,
including, if necessary or appropriate, software patches or other adjustments in ground facilities
so as to eliminate or ameliorate the effects of such failure. SNC shall bear the costs to eliminate
or ameliorate the effects of such failure until [* * *], unless the failure was caused by ORBCOMM’s
negligent acts or omissions in operating such Satellite. Post-IOT support provided later than [*
* *] or before that time if the failure was caused by ORBCOMM’s negligent acts or omissions in
operating such Satellite shall, if requested in writing by ORBCOMM, be provided on a Cost basis.
ARTICLE 8 — TITLE AND RISK OF LOSS
Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, title to, beneficial ownership of and right to
possession to and risk of loss of or damage to each Deliverable shall pass to ORBCOMM upon Delivery
of such Deliverable to ORBCOMM. (All references herein to the transfer of title herein shall
embody the same rights and responsibilities, as specified in the previous sentence, unless
otherwise expressly stated.) The foregoing notwithstanding, risk of loss and, unless earlier
transfer of title is requested in writing by ORBCOMM (which request shall be honored at any time
from and after the applicable PSR date), title to each Flight Satellite shall transfer to ORBCOMM
at the moment of Launch.
ARTICLE
8A — SNC’S SECURITY INTEREST
ORBCOMM agrees that SNC retains a purchase money security interest in each Satellite sold by SNC to
ORBCOMM and to any sale proceeds thereof, until the following Milestones have been paid or have
been otherwise discharged: (a) for Shipset #1 at the earlier of Milestone 24 (Satellite 11 FAT) or
Milestone #23 (SS#1 Launch) plus four (4) months, if Milestone 24 has not at that time yet
occurred; (b) for Shipset #2 at Milestone 26 (SS#2 Launch); (c) for Shipset #3 at Milestone 31
(SS#3 Launch); and (d) for any Optional Satellite, at PSR, in each case at which time any security
interest shall be deemed released and discharged without any further action required. ORBCOMM
agrees to promptly, but no later than fifteen (15) days after request for the same, execute any
financing statements or other documents as SNC may reasonably request in order to protect SNC’s
security interest. SNC agrees promptly, but no later than fifteen (15) days after request for the
same, to execute any release of the same, as to the applicable Satellite, upon discharge of SNC’s
security interest in accordance with this Article or Article 12, as ORBCOMM may reasonably request.
Upon any termination of this Agreement by SNC for default by ORBCOMM hereunder, SNC shall have all
rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code, which rights and remedies
shall be cumulative and not exclusive.
Page 15
ARTICLE
8B — ORBCOMM’S SECURITY INTEREST
As collateral for the timely performance by SUPPLIER of its Work hereunder, SUPPLIER hereby pledges
and grants to ORBCOMM, a first priority security interest to all of SUPPLIER’s right, title, and
interest in
the Work and all Work in progress and any proceeds therefrom, whether now or hereafter acquired by
SUPPLIER and whether now-existing or hereafter coming into existence. Until SUPPLIER has Delivered
to ORBCOMM and transferred to it title to all Deliverables associated therewith (at which time the
applicable security interest shall be deemed discharged and released without any further action
required), SUPPLIER agrees promptly, but no later than fifteen (15) days after request for the
same, to execute any financing statements or other documents as ORBCOMM may reasonably request in
order to protect ORBCOMM’s security interest and ORBCOMM agrees to execute any release of the same,
at such point that pursuant to the previous sentence, such security interest is no longer required
to be maintained, as SUPPLIER may reasonably request. Upon any termination of this Agreement by
ORBCOMM for default by SUPPLIER hereunder, ORBCOMM shall have all rights and remedies of a secured
party under the Uniform Commercial Code, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative and not
exclusive.
ARTICLE
8C — PROPERTY ACCOUNTING
SUPPLIER shall account for all supplies, parts, materials, components, subsystems or systems in its
possession which are designated by SUPPLIER, in accordance with SUPPLIER’s normal inventory control
practice, to become the property of ORBCOMM pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and which are
part of the items to be Delivered under this Agreement. For this purpose, SUPPLIER shall maintain
a system to control, protect, preserve and identify, at all times and until the Delivery and
acceptance of the last item to be Delivered hereunder, all of the aforementioned property in its
possession. Once supplies, parts, materials, components, subsystems or systems have been installed
on or designated for a Satellite under SUPPLIER’s internal system, such supplies, parts, materials,
components, subsystems or systems shall not be redeployed to another of SUPPLIER’s programs without
ORBCOMM’s prior written consent, and in no event if such redeployment would jeopardize the schedule

records reflecting the foregoing until the Delivery and acceptance of the last item to be Delivered
pursuant to this Agreement. SUPPLIER shall make inventory records and the property to which they
relate available for ORBCOMM review and inspection, upon reasonable notice and at reasonable times.
ARTICLE 9 — CHANGES
Section 9.1 — Changes. At any time and by written order, ORBCOMM may make changes within the
general scope of this Agreement in (a) the Specifications or the Statements of Work, (b) the method
of packing or shipment, (c) place or time of Delivery, or (d) the quantity or type of the items to
be Delivered or Services required to be performed hereunder.
Section 9.2 — Adjustments to Agreement.
(a) If any change requested by ORBCOMM causes an increase or decrease in SUPPLIER’s Costs, or
in the time required for performance of any part of the Work, whether or not directly changed by
the order, ORBCOMM and SUPPLIER shall negotiate an equitable adjustment to such Price, Delivery
schedule or other provision of this Agreement. If SUPPLIER’s Costs are increased in connection
with any changes under this Article 9, it shall be entitled to such Costs. If SUPPLIER’s Costs are
reduced in connection with any changes under this Article 9, ORBCOMM shall be entitled to a credit
against its payments otherwise due hereunder of SUPPLIER’s savings, also calculated at Cost.
SUPPLIER shall perform the Work as contractually obligated pending resolution of any negotiation
under this Article 9; unless ORBCOMM directs SUPPLIER in writing to proceed with the change subject
to such resolution in which event SUPPLIER shall proceed in that manner. If ORBCOMM so directs
SUPPLIER to proceed
pending such resolution, then: (i) ORBCOMM shall pay SNC in accordance with such proposal pending
resolution at which time any over (or under) payments shall be required to be paid or refunded by
the relevant party in accordance with such resolution; and (ii) the pendancy of such resolution
shall not excuse SNC from proceeding with the Work as changed.
Page 16
(b) SUPPLIER must assert in a written proposal that addresses its right to an adjustment under
this Article 9 within twenty (20) Business Days from receipt of the written order.
(c) If SUPPLIER’s proposal includes the Cost of replacing property made obsolete or excess by
the change, SUPPLIER’s charge for the new item shall be reduced by the Cost of the item to be
replaced.
(d) Failure to agree to any adjustment shall be a dispute and shall be settled in accordance
with Section 15.4.
Section 9.3 — Changes Made by Waiver. In no event shall ORBCOMM be required to make any additional
payment or agree to any adjustment on the Work Schedule to accommodate any change that may result
from a waiver that may be requested by SUPPLIER.

10 — REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS
Section 10.1 — SUPPLIER’s Representations Warranties and Covenants. SUPPLIER represents, warrants
and covenants that:
(a) it has and it shall deliver to ORBCOMM at the time of title passing as provided in this
Agreement, sole and good legal and equitable title to the items to be Delivered or to the extent
applicable, the Services required to be performed hereunder, free and clear of any and all security
interests, liens, claims, charges and encumbrances of any kind or nature whatsoever, together with
full power and lawful authority to sell, Deliver and perform the items to be Delivered or to the
extent applicable, the Services required to be performed hereunder.
(b) the Deliverables to be provided hereunder shall conform to the requirements defined in
Exhibit A, Statement of Work and Specifications, and be free from material defects in design,
material and workmanship and shall operate and conform to the Specifications for a period of
thirty-six (36) months following Delivery thereof (“Warranty Period”); provided that the Warranty
Period for each Satellite (subject to the provisions herein) shall expire upon Launch and provided
further that if SUPPLIER identifies or is notified of such defects prior to expiration of the
Warranty Period its obligation to correct such defects shall continue until such defects are
remedied. All Services to be provided hereunder shall be performed in accordance with commercially
reasonable standards of care and in accordance with best industry practices. The foregoing

performed by SUPPLIER or its contractors or subcontractors.
(c) To the best of SUPPLIER’s knowledge, following reasonable inquiry, there are no anomalies
that have occurred either in orbit or in testing, with respect to each and every such system,
sub-system, or unit that, if present in a Satellite, would cause or threaten to cause the Satellite
not to perform in accordance with the Specifications, unless the root cause of the anomaly has been
determined and resolved.
Page 17
(d) To the best of SUPPLIER’s knowledge, there is nothing inherent in the Satellites that
would prevent SUPPLIER from obtaining: (i) all U.S. or other export authorizations for their
Delivery, along with
all associated technical data, to NATO and non-NATO countries (and to NATO and non NATO nationals);
and/or (ii) launch and/or in-orbit insurance for the Satellites (and/or the ORBCOMM Satellites) at
commercially reasonable rates and without any exclusion specific to the Satellites, or any of their
system, sub-system, or unit elements.
(e)
The information provided by SUPPLIER to ORBCOMM in response to ORBCOMM’s due diligence
checklist, attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit H, is accurate and complete in all
material respects. SUPPLIER is not, in any material respect, in breach of or in default under any
of the material contracts referenced in Section E4 of Exhibit H or any other contract with a
contract value in excess of Ten Million United States Dollars ($10,000,000).

footnotes thereto, and the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of SUPPLIER dated as of December
31, 2007 and the related consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and changes in
shareholders’ equity for each of such two fiscal years of SUPPLIER that was provided by SUPPLIER to

shall be limited to: (i) SUPPLIER using commercially reasonable efforts to correct such Defects in
the Deliverable(s) or supply ORBCOMM with a corrected version of the Deliverables pursuant to
Section 7.3 above, as soon as reasonably practicable after SUPPLIER becomes aware or has been
notified of such Defects; (ii) if correction or replacement is not reasonably achievable by
SUPPLIER, for ORBCOMM to withhold payment to SUPPLIER of the Price for the Satellite(s) so
affected; (iii) the applicable Price adjustments set forth in Section 5.2 hereof or as may be
determined as part of the waiver or change order process set forth in Article 9 and the Statement
of Work; (iv) ORBCOMM terminating the Agreement pursuant to Article 12, and exercising its remedies
stated therein; (v) the indemnification and other rights and obligations as set forth herein;
and/or (vi) the specific performance set out in Section 11.5 below.
Section 11.2 — Limitation of Liability. EXCEPT AS TO THIRD PARTY LIABILITY IN THE CASE OF A
PARTY’S OBLIGATIONS OF INDEMNITY HEREUNDER, NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR
INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM THE USE OF ANY OF THE GOODS OR
SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED HEREUNDER, EVEN IF THE OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OR OTHERWISE IS AWARE
OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
Section 11.3 — Intellectual Property Indemnification.
(a) SUPPLIER agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless ORBCOMM, from and against any claim
or liability arising from any claim and/or allegation alleging that the Work or any portion thereof
infringes (including direct or contributory infringement or inducement to infringe), violates or
misappropriates any patent, copyright, trade secret or proprietary right of any third party (each,
an “Infringement Claim”), and SUPPLIER shall indemnify ORBCOMM, against all costs, expenses,
damages, and liability (including reasonable attorneys fees) arising from any such Infringement
Claim; provided, however, that (i) ORBCOMM shall have given SUPPLIER prompt notice of such
Infringement Claim, (ii) ORBCOMM shall cooperate with SUPPLIER in the defense and settlement
thereof and (iii) SUPPLIER shall have control of the defense of such action and any settlement or
compromise thereof. SUPPLIER shall not enter into any settlement or compromise that fails to
completely absolve ORBCOMM from any liability or obligation with respect to such matter, nor shall
SUPPLIER have the right to control the defense of any action in which SUPPLIER disputes a material
portion of the liability to ORBCOMM. Although SUPPLIER may have control of the defense of any
Infringement Claim, SUPPLIER shall provide ORBCOMM with copies of all pleadings filed in any such
case and SUPPLIER or its representatives shall keep ORBCOMM or its agents informed of all material
information pertaining to a Infringement Claim. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the
contrary, the failure or delay of ORBCOMM to deliver prompt notice of an Infringement Claim shall
not excuse any indemnity obligations of SUPPLIER hereunder, except to the extent that SUPPLIER was
actually disadvantaged by such failure or delay.
(b) If a temporary or a final injunction is obtained against ORBCOMM’s use of the Work or any
portion thereof by reason of an infringement, violation or misappropriation of a patent, copyright,
trade secret or proprietary right, SUPPLIER will, at its option and expense, either (i) procure
for ORBCOMM the right to continue using the Work; or (ii) replace or modify the Work so that it no
longer infringes, violates or misappropriates such patent, copyright, trade secret or proprietary
right and continue to perform in accordance with the Specifications.
Page 19
(c) SUPPLIER shall have no liability to ORBCOMM arising from an Infringement Claim to the
extent that such liability is based upon or arises out of (i) the modification of the Work by
ORBCOMM or ORBCOMM-provided software, or any third party (other than subcontractors of SUPPLIER in
connection with the Project) or (ii) the use of the Work or any portion thereof in combination with
any other equipment or software, in the event that, but for such modification or use, such
liability from such Infringement Claim would not arise.
(d) SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF EXHIBIT D HERETO, THIS ARTICLE STATES SUPPLIER’S ENTIRE
OBLIGATION TO ORBCOMM WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM OF INFRINGEMENT.
Section 11.4 — Interparty Waiver. The parties agree to the extent required under the Launch
Contract to be entered by SUPPLIER or ORBCOMM to accede to a no-fault, no-subrogation,
inter-participant waiver of liability, whereby the parties agree mutually to waive, and shall
require their subcontractors at any tier to waive, certain rights of recovery (as shall be more
particularly described in the Launch Contract) any such party may have against the Launch services
provider (which shall not be interpreted for purposes of this Section 11.4 to mean SUPPLIER), its
contractors and subcontractors at any tier, and its contractors and subcontractors at any tier
involved in Launch services. Each party shall indemnify the other party for and hold the other
party harmless from any liability, loss or damage suffered by such party resulting from the failure
by the party to comply with its obligations under this Section 11.4 to waive, or to require its
subcontractors at any tier to waive, such rights of recovery referred to in this paragraph. The
parties shall execute and deliver any agreement as may be necessary to accede to the waiver of
liability referred to in this Section 11.4.
Section 11.5 — Specific Performance. ORBCOMM may seek equitable relief to compel performance by
SUPPLIER of its obligations hereunder in the event of any breach by SUPPLIER of its obligations
hereunder. SUPPLIER may contest whether a breach has in fact occurred, but shall not contest that,
if a breach has occurred, an order of specific performance, if sought by ORBCOMM, is an appropriate
remedy.

ORBCOMM an amount (the “Additional SUPPLIER Termination Liability Payment”) that shall equal the
total of ORBCOMM’s Costs to have the Work to have been performed by SUPPLIER completed and
performed by other vendor(s) (less the remaining portion of the Price for such Work that would have
been payable to SUPPLIER had the Work been so completed by SUPPLIER) plus any additional costs that

Deliverables already Delivered at the time of termination, SUPPLIER shall be entitled to subtract
from its termination liability a pro rata portion of the Price for said Satellite(s), in the case
of the Initial Order based upon the number of Flight Satellites being retained against the total
order of eighteen (18) or, in the case of any Optional Satellite(s) retained, against the number of
Optional Satellites that were part of the terminated order, minus: (i) any portion of the Price
associated therewith for which Milestones have not been Successfully Completed; and (ii) such
amounts as would have been at risk in the event of any delay or failure of the applicable Flight
Satellite (the “Retained Amount”). As to any and all Flight Satellites or other Deliverables

entitled to retain all payments made by ORBCOMM to the date of termination (“Retained Payments”)
and, if and to the extent in excess of the Retained Payments, to recover its Costs for all Work
performed by SUPPLIER hereunder, including, without limitation, any termination liability to
subcontractors and any commitments in place, subject in all cases to reasonable mitigation efforts
by SUPPLIER (the “Additional ORBCOMM Termination Liability Payment”), provided that in no event

be determined or declared to be void or invalid in law or otherwise, then only that term,
condition, clause or provision shall be stricken from this Agreement and in all other respects this
Agreement shall be valid and continue in full force, effect and operation.
Section 15.16 – Waiver. The failure of ORBCOMM or SUPPLIER at any time to insist on performance of
any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of that provision in any later
instance, nor shall it be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement or any
express or implied election of remedies.
Section 15.17 — Proprietary Information. During the term of this Agreement, and for five (5) years
after its termination, ORBCOMM and SUPPLIER shall not disclose any technical, non-technical and/or

confidentiality and on a need to know basis, to its actual and potential contractors,
subcontractors, insurers and insurance brokers, and successors-in-interest.
Except as may be required by applicable laws, neither party will make a public announcement
regarding this Agreement without the approval of the other party, which approval will not be

the SOW in the context of Project infrastructure.
3. ORBCOMM hereby grants SUPPLIER, for use in the Project only, all of the nonexclusive,
nontransferable licenses and sublicenses necessary to use, make derivative works from, and
integrate with other Project Software and Software Documentation, such Existing ORBCOMM Software,
Existing Third Party Software, and New Third Party Software as ORBCOMM or its third party software
contractors shall make available to SUPPLIER in the course of SUPPLIER’s performance of its Work
and Services hereunder.
4. SUPPLIER hereby grants ORBCOMM, for use in support of the Project and thereafter, all of
the licenses and sublicenses necessary (a) to use, make derivative works from, and integrate with
the other Project Software and Software Documentation mentioned above, such Existing SUPPLIER
Software and New SUPPLIER Software and the directly related Project Software and Software
Documentation as shall be made available to ORBCOMM in the course of SUPPLIER’s Work and Services
for the Project, and (b) to permit ORBCOMM’s third party software contractors to do the same.
5. Except as specified in Exhibit E mentioned in the following paragraph, all SUPPLIER Work
and Services regarding Project Software and Software Documentation (including without limitation,
all code, documentation, notes, graphics, and test results) and all New SUPPLIER Software and any
Project Software and Software Documentation directly related to any of the foregoing shall be
deemed to be jointly owned by the Parties, and each Party hereby licenses the other the right to
use, make derivative works from, and sublicense the same.
Page 46
6. Each Party represents and warrants to the other that (a) it has such right, title, and
interest in any Project Software and Software Documentation made available to the other Party
hereunder as may be necessary to the use of such software for the Project purposes described or
required in the SOW, and (b) such use shall not infringe the rights of others. SUPPLIER further
represents and warrants that, unless otherwise specified in Exhibit E, “Third Party Software
Ownership and Licensing,” attached to this Agreement and to be updated as necessary and agreed by
ORBCOMM throughout its Work and Services hereunder, all Project Software and Software Documentation
used in its SUPPLIER’s Work and Services and/or delivered to ORBCOMM hereunder shall be SUPPLIER’s
own original work.
7. To the extent SUPPLIER may by operation of law or otherwise attain any right, title, or
interest in any Project Software and Software Documentation, SUPPLIER hereby and without further
consideration agrees to grant to ORBCOMM a license to use any and all of the same and any goodwill
attaching thereto, free from any encumbrances whatever, to ORBCOMM. ORBCOMM shall thus be entitled
to use and modify the Project Software and Software Documentation in source code or other form to
create derivative software(s) and to use, copy, have copied, sublicense, market, and distribute the
Project Software and Software Documentation and any derivative softwares and related documentation.
8. SUPPLIER hereby covenants with ORBCOMM that it will, at the request of ORBCOMM at all
times hereafter, do all such acts and execute such documents as may be necessary or desirable to
secure the vesting of all rights in ORBCOMM pursuant to this Exhibit D and to assist in the
resolution of any question concerning ORBCOMM’s joint ownership of the New SUPPLIER Software and
New Third Party Software and directly related Project Software and Software Documentation and any
intellectual property rights related to or derived from either or both of the same.
9. SUPPLIER shall, contemporaneously with its entry into this Agreement, execute (as the
“Depositor”) and thereafter perform the obligations of a Depositor under the “Preferred Escrow
Agreement” with Iron Mountain and ORBCOMM (as the “Preferred Beneficiary”), attached hereto as
Exhibit F. ORBCOMM agrees that it shall pay Iron Mountain’s fees under the Preferred Escrow
Agreement. Subject to ORBCOMM’s obligation to pay Iron Mountain’s fees, SUPPLIER agrees that
ORBCOMM shall have the right to adjust the level of work to be performed by Iron Mountain and/or
terminate the Preferred Escrow Agreement in accordance with its terms and SUPPLIER shall execute
and deliver such instructions to Iron Mountain as ORBCOMM may reasonably request to reflect
ORBCOMM’s decisions in this regard.
10. The Party granting a license(s) in Sections 3, 4, 5, or 7 of this Exhibit D (hereinafter,
in this Exhibit, the “Indemnitor Party”) shall indemnify the other party, its Project contractors,
and its and their officers, directors, employees (together, “Indemnitees”), against all costs,
expenses, (including reasonable attorney’s fees), and damages (together, “Damages”) arising out of
any claim, suit, demand, or action alleging infringement in the making, licensing, or use of any
Project Software and Software Documentation so licensed, made, or assigned; provided, however,
that: (i) the Indemnitees shall have given the Indemnitor Party prompt notice of such claim, suit,
demand, or action; (ii) the Indemnitees shall cooperate with the licensing Party in the defense and
settlement thereof; and, (iii) the Indemnitor Party shall have control of the defense of such
claim, suit, demand, or action and the settlement or compromise thereof, and provided further that
SUPPLIER shall not enter into any settlement or compromise that fails to completely relieve
Indemnitees from any liability or obligation with respect to such matter; nor shall SUPPLIER have
the right to control the defense of any action in which SUPPLIER disputes liability to ORBCOMM.
The failure or delay of an Indemnitee to deliver prompt notice of a claim shall not excuse any
indemnity obligations of the Indemnitor Party, except to the extent that the Indemnitor Party was
actually disadvantaged by such failure or delay.
Page 47
11. If a temporary or a final injunction is obtained against an Indemnitee’s use of the
Project Software and Software Documentation or any portion thereof by reason of an infringement of
a U.S. copyright, trade secret, or other proprietary right, the Indemnitor Party will, at its
option and expense, either (i) procure for the Indemnitee(s) the right to continue using the
infringing Project Software and Software Documentation or (ii) replace or modify the infringing
Project Software and Software Documentation, or the infringing portion thereof, so that it no
longer is infringing (provided that the utility or performance of the same is not adversely
affected by such replacement or modification). A party shall have no liability to the other party
or other Indemnitees for any infringement action, claim, suit, demand, or action to the extent that
it is based upon or arises out of the modification of Project Software and Software Documentation
or the Project Software and Software Documentation by the other party without notice to and the
express written consent of the first party.
12. EVEN IF AN INDEMNITOR PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED, KNEW, OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY DAMAGES WHICH MAY BE ASSESSED UPON AN INDEMNITOR
PARTY FOR ANY REASON EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE UNDER THE AGREEMENT. ANY ACTION FOR INDEMNIFICATION
OF DAMAGES AGAINST A LICENSING PARTY MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN TWO (2) YEARS AFTER A FINAL JUDGMENT
OF INFRINGEMENT IS ENTERED.
13. EXCEPT AS TO THIRD PARTY LIABILITY, IN NO EVENT WILL AN INDEMNITOR PARTY BE LIABLE FOR
ANY INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OF USE OR LOST
BUSINESS, REVENUE, OR GOODWILL) ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY SOFTWARE AND
SOFTWARE DOCUMENTATION OF OTHERS, OR THE PROJECT SOFTWARE AND SOFTWARE DOCUMENTATION, AND/OR THE
USE THEREOF, UNDER ANY THEORY OF TORT, CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY OR NEGLIGENCE.

Three-Party Escrow Service Agreement
Deposit Account Number:
1. |
|
Introduction. |
|
|
|
This Three Party Escrow Service Agreement (the “ Agreement”) is entered into by and between
Sierra Nevada Corporation and its Affiliates, as defined below (the “ Depositor”), and by ORBCOMM
Inc. and its Affiliates (the “ Beneficiary”) and by Iron Mountain Intellectual Property
Management, Inc. (“ Iron Mountain”) on this 5th day of May, 2008 (the “ Effective Date”).
Depositor, Beneficiary, and Iron Mountain may be referred to individually as a “Party” or
collectively as the “Parties” throughout this Agreement. |
|
|
|
(a) The use of the term services in this Agreement shall refer to Iron Mountain services that
facilitate the creation, management, and enforcement of software or other technology escrow
accounts as described in Exhibit A attached hereto (“Services”). A Party shall request Services
under this Agreement by submitting a work request for certain Iron Mountain Services (“Work
Request”) via written instruction or the online portal maintained at the website located at
xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx, or other websites owned or controlled by Iron Mountain that
are linked to that website (collectively the “Iron Mountain Website”). |
|
|
|
(b) The Beneficiary and Depositor have, or will have, entered into a license agreement or other
agreement conveying intellectual property rights to the Beneficiary, and the Parties intend this
Agreement to be considered as supplementary to such agreement, pursuant to Title 00 Xxxxxx
Xxxxxx Bankruptcy Code, Section 365(n). |
|
2. |
|
Depositor Responsibilities and Representations. |
|
(a) |
|
Depositor shall make an initial deposit that is complete and functional of all
proprietary technology and other materials covered under this Agreement (“ Deposit
Material”) to Iron Mountain not later than sixty (60) days from the Effective Date of the
Procurement Agreement. Depositor may also update Deposit Material from time to time during
the Term of this Agreement provided a minimum of one (1) complete and functional copy of
Deposit Material is deposited with Iron Mountain at all times. At the time of each deposit
or update, Depositor will provide an accurate and complete description of all Deposit
Material sent to Iron Mountain using the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. |
|
|
(b) |
|
Depositor represents that it lawfully possesses all Deposit Material provided to Iron
Mountain under this Agreement free of any liens or encumbrances as of the date of their
deposit. Any Deposit Material liens or encumbrances made after their deposit will not
prohibit, limit, or alter the rights and obligations of Iron Mountain under this Agreement.
Depositor warrants that with respect to the Deposit Material, Iron Mountain’s proper
administration of this Agreement will not violate the rights of any third parties. |
|
|
(c) |
|
Depositor represents that all Deposit Material is readable in its then current form; if
any portion of such Deposit Material is encrypted, the necessary decryption tools and keys
to read such material are deposited contemporaneously. |
|
|
(d) |
|
Depositor agrees, upon request by Iron Mountain, in support of Beneficiary’s request
for verification Services, to promptly complete and return the Escrow Deposit Questionnaire
attached hereto as Exhibit Q. Depositor consents to Iron Mountain’s performance of any
level(s) of verification Services described in Exhibit A attached hereto and Depositor
further consents to Iron Mountain’s use of a subcontractor to perform verification
Services. Any such subcontractor shall be bound by the same confidentiality obligations as
Iron Mountain and shall not be a direct competitor to either Depositor or Beneficiary. Iron
Mountain shall be responsible for the delivery of Services of any such subcontractor as if
Iron Mountain had performed the Services. Depositor represents that all Deposit Material is
provided with all rights necessary for Iron Mountain to verify such proprietary technology
and materials upon receipt of a Work Request for such Services or agrees to use
commercially reasonable efforts to provide Iron Mountain with any necessary use rights or
permissions to use materials necessary to perform verification of the Deposit Material.
Depositor agrees to reasonably cooperate with Iron Mountain by providing reasonable access
to its technical personnel for verification Services whenever reasonably necessary. |
3. |
|
Beneficiary Responsibilities and Representations. |
|
(a) |
|
Beneficiary acknowledges that, as between Iron Mountain and Beneficiary, Beneficiary
assumes all responsibility for the completeness and functionality of all Deposit Material. |
|
|
(b) |
|
Beneficiary may submit a verification Work Request to Iron Mountain for one or more of
the Services defined in Exhibit A attached hereto and further consents to Iron Mountain’s
use of a subcontractor if needed to provide such Services. Beneficiary warrants that Iron
Mountain’s use of any materials supplied by Beneficiary to perform the verification
Services described in Exhibit A is lawful and does not violate the rights of any third
parties. |
4. |
|
Iron Mountain Responsibilities and Representations. |
|
(a) |
|
Iron Mountain agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Services
requested by Authorized Person(s) (as identified in the “Authorized Person(s)/Notices
Table” below) representing the Depositor or Beneficiary in a Work Request. Iron Mountain
may reject a Work Request (in whole or in part) that does not contain all required
information at any time upon notification to the Party originating the Work Request. |
|
|
(b) |
|
Iron Mountain will conduct a visual inspection upon receipt of any Deposit Material and
associated Exhibit B. If Iron Mountain determines that the Deposit Material does not match
the description provided by Depositor represented in Exhibit B attached hereto, Iron
Mountain will notify Depositor of such discrepancies and notate such discrepancy on the
Exhibit B. |
|
|
(c) |
|
Iron Mountain will provide notice to the Beneficiary of all Deposit Material that is
accepted and deposited into the escrow account under this Agreement. |
|
|
(d) |
|
Iron Mountain will work with a Party who submits any verification Work Request for
Deposit Material covered under this Agreement to either fulfill any standard verification
Services Work Request or develop a custom Statement of Work (“SOW”). Iron Mountain and the
requesting Party will mutually agree in writing to an SOW on the following terms and
conditions that include but are not limited to: description of Deposit Material to be
tested; description of Verification testing; requesting Party responsibilities; Iron
Mountain responsibilities; Service Fees; invoice payment instructions; designation of the
paying Party; designation of authorized SOW representatives for both the requesting Party
and Iron Mountain with name and contact information; and description of any final
deliverables prior to the start of any fulfillment activity. After the start of
fulfillment activity, each SOW may only be amended or modified in writing with the mutual
agreement of both Parties, in accordance with the change control procedures set forth
therein. |
|
|
1. |
|
Iron Mountain will hold and protect Deposit Material in physical or electronic vaults
that are either owned or under the control of Iron Mountain, unless otherwise agreed to by
the Parties. |
|
|
2. |
|
Upon receipt of written instructions by both Depositor and Beneficiary, Iron Mountain
will permit the replacement or removal of previously submitted Deposit Material. The Party
making such request shall be responsible for getting the other Party to approve the joint
instructions. |
5. |
|
Payment. |
|
|
|
The Party responsible for payment designated in Exhibit A (“Paying Party”) shall pay to Iron
Mountain all fees as set forth in the Work Request (“Service Fees”). Except as set forth below,
all Service Fees are due within thirty (30) calendar days from the date of invoice in U.S.
currency and are non-refundable. Iron Mountain may update Service Fees with a ninety (90)
calendar day written notice to the Paying Party during the term of this Agreement. The Paying
Party is liable for any taxes related specifically to Services purchased under this Agreement or
shall present to Iron Mountain an exemption certificate acceptable to the taxing authorities.
Applicable taxes shall be billed as a separate item on the invoice. Depositor and Beneficiary
agree that if this Agreement terminates during the term for any reason, other than for the fault
of Iron Mountain, all prepaid fees shall be non-refundable. Any Service Fees not collected by
Iron Mountain when due shall bear interest until paid at a rate of one percent (1%) per month
(12% per annum) or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less. Notwithstanding, the
non-performance of any obligations of Depositor to deliver Deposit Material under the License
Agreement or this Agreement, Iron Mountain is entitled to be paid all Service Fees that accrue
during the Term of this Agreement. |
|
6. |
|
Term and Termination. |
|
(a) |
|
The “Term” of this Agreement is for a period of one (1) year from the Effective Date
(“Initial Term”) and will automatically renew for additional one (1) year terms (“Renewal
Term”) and continue in full force and effect until one of the following events occur: (i)
Depositor and Beneficiary provide Iron Mountain with sixty (60) days’ prior written joint
notice of their intent to terminate this Agreement; (ii) Beneficiary provides Iron
Mountain and Depositor with sixty (60) days’ prior written notice of their intent to
terminate this Agreement; (iii) the Agreement terminates under another provision of this
Agreement; or (iv) any time after the Initial Term, Iron Mountain provides a sixty (60)
days’ prior written notice to the Depositor and Beneficiary of Iron Mountain’s intent to
terminate this Agreement. If the Effective Date is not specified in the Introduction
section, then the last date noted on the signature blocks of this Agreement shall be the
Effective Date. |
|
|
(b) |
|
Unless the express terms of this Agreement provide otherwise, upon termination of this
Agreement, Iron Mountain shall return the Deposit Material to the Depositor. If reasonable
attempts to return the Deposit Material to Depositor are unsuccessful, Iron Mountain shall
destroy the Deposit Material. |
Page 2 of 10
|
(c) |
|
In the event of the nonpayment of undisputed Service Fees owed to Iron Mountain, Iron
Mountain shall provide all Parties to this Agreement with written notice of Iron Mountain’s
intent to terminate this Agreement. Any Party to this Agreement shall have the right to
make the payment to Iron Mountain to cure the default. If the past due payment is not
received in full by Iron Mountain within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of such
written notice, then Iron Mountain shall have the right to terminate this Agreement at any
time thereafter by sending written notice to all Parties. Iron Mountain shall have no
obligation to perform the Services under this Agreement (except those obligations that
survive termination of this Agreement) so long as any undisputed Service Fees due Iron
Mountain under this Agreement remain unpaid. |
7. |
|
General Indemnity. |
|
|
|
Subject to Section 10 and 11, each Party shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the others,
their corporate affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents and
their respective successors and assigns from and against any and all claims, losses,
liabilities, damages, and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees),
arising under this Agreement from the negligent or intentional acts or omissions of the
indemnifying Party or its subcontractors, or the officers, directors, employees, agents,
successors and assigns of any of them. |
|
8. |
|
Warranties. |
|
(a) |
|
IRON MOUNTAIN WARRANTS ANY AND ALL SERVICES PROVIDED HEREUNDER SHALL BE PERFORMED IN A
WORKMANLIKE MANNER. EXCEPT AS SPECIFIED IN THIS SECTION, ALL EXPRESS OR IMPLIED
CONDITIONS, REPRESENTATIONS, AND WARRANTIES INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, SATISFACTORY
QUALITY, AGAINST INFRINGEMENT OR ARISING FROM A COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE, OR TRADE
PRACTICE, ARE HEREBY EXCLUDED TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW. AN AGGRIEVED PARTY
MUST NOTIFY IRON MOUNTAIN PROMPTLY OF ANY CLAIMED BREACH OF ANY WARRANTIES AND SUCH PARTY’S
SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR BREACH OF WARRANTY SHALL BE RETURN OF THE PORTION OF THE FEES
PAID TO IRON MOUNTAIN BY PAYING PARTY FOR SUCH NON-CONFORMING SERVICES. THIS DISCLAIMER
AND EXCLUSION SHALL APPLY EVEN IF THE EXPRESS WARRANTY AND LIMITED REMEDY SET FORTH ABOVE
FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. THE WARRANTY PROVIDED IS SUBJECT TO THE LIMITATION OF
LIABILITY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT. |
|
|
(b) |
|
Depositor warrants that all Depositor information provided hereunder is accurate and
reliable and undertakes to promptly correct and update such Depositor information during
the Term of this Agreement. |

event of a dispute concerning the ownership, custody or disposition of Deposit Material
stored by Depositor with Iron Mountain. |
9. |

|
Iron Mountain shall have the obligation to reasonably protect the confidentiality of the Deposit

court or other judicial tribunal pertaining to the disclosure or release of the Deposit
Material, Iron Mountain will notify the Parties to this Agreement unless prohibited by law.
After notifying the Parties, Iron Mountain may comply in good faith with such order. It shall
be the responsibility of Depositor or Beneficiary to challenge any such order; provided,
however, that Iron Mountain does not waive its rights to present its position with respect to
any such order. Iron Mountain will cooperate with the Depositor or Beneficiary, as applicable,
to support efforts to quash or limit any subpoena, at such party’s expense. Any party requesting
additional assistance shall pay Iron Mountain’s standard charges or as quoted upon submission of
a detailed request. |

Exhibit G
SECURED CREDIT FACILITY
THIS EXHIBIT IS ONLY INTENDED TO OUTLINE THE MATERIAL TERMS AROUND WHICH A MORE DETAILED DEFINITIVE
AGREEMENT, WITH OTHER CUSTOMARY TERMS, CAN BE COMPLETED IN THE EVENT THAT BORROWER ELECTS TO
ESTABLISH THE CREDIT FACILITY.
Sierra Nevada Corporation as the Lender will provide a credit facility to
ORBCOMM Inc. as the
Borrower, with a maximum sum available of $20,000,000.00 providing for cash advances during months
24-44 of the Agreement, subject to the terms set forth below. ORBCOMM will provide Lender 45 days
written notice of its intent to establish the credit facility.
The $20 Million Credit Facility (the “Credit Facility” or “Revolver”) will be subject to the
following covenants and limitations:
The Revolver will be subject to a borrowing base (the “Borrowing Base”) consisting of the sum of
90% of billed receivables, not more than 90 days past due. The Borrowing Base may also be expanded
to include collateral other than pledged receivables to the extent agreed to in writing by Lender
and Borrower, and subject to the maximum sum available of $20,000,000.00.
Borrower must have positive EBITDA as demonstrated at the close of the most recent fiscal quarter
and every quarter thereafter until the Credit Facility is paid in full.
The proceeds of the Credit Facility shall be used for making Milestone payments under the
Agreement, working capital, capital expenditures, letters of credit, and other lawful corporate
purposes.
Lender will flow down all applicable interest rates and the associated interest payment schedule of
such interest rates to the Borrower that are established between the Lender and the Lender’s Credit
Facility obtained from outside sources.
The Lender will also flow down arrangement and upfront fees to the Borrower on a pro-rata share of
the aggregate principal amount of the Credit Facility. The Lender will not flow down
administrative agency fees to the Borrower. The total fee is estimated to be 0.25% of the
aggregate principal amount.
The Lender shall receive a first priority security interest in all accounts receivables and any
other assets used to expand the Borrowing Base pledged by the Borrower and subsidiaries (the
“Collateral”) at the time the Credit Facility is established.
The Lender will be allowed to conduct due diligence to verify that Borrower has positive EBITDA; as
well as to verify the existence of the Collateral pledged during the due diligence process and from
time to time throughout the term the Credit Facility is being used.
The Borrower may prepay the Revolver in whole or in part at any time without penalty, subject to
reimbursement to the Lender of any breakage costs the Lender may incur with outside funding
sources. The Credit Facility will be paid in full, including any interest payments and any
expenses related thereto, within 30 days after the earlier of (i) Month 44 of the Milestone Payment
Schedule or (ii) the successful completion of Milestone 31 (SS#3 Launch).
The Borrower will provide representations recording the accuracy and completeness of specified
financial documents submitted to support utilization of the Credit Facility from time to time as
required under herein.
The Borrower shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the Lender the Borrower’s audited
consolidated/consolidating financial statements along with applicable compliance certifications
regarding the Collateral. As long as the line is being utilized the Borrower will provide the
Lender with a monthly A/R aging to support the accounts receivable amounts pledged under the line.
Covenants as to the disposition or pledging of Borrower’s assets shall be limited to the Collateral
and financial covenants shall be limited to maintaining positive EBITDA.
Events of default include, without limitation, the following: (i) nonpayment of principal,
interest, fees or other amounts; (ii) violation of covenants; (iii) inaccuracy of representations
and warranties; (iv) cross-default to other material agreements and indebtedness; (v) bankruptcy
and other insolvency events; (vi) creditor or forfeiture proceedings; (vii) actual or asserted
invalidity of any loan documentation or security interests; and (viii) change in control.
