3.2. Power and Authority. TerreStar has all requisite corporate power
and authority to own, lease, operate and encumber its properties and assets, and
to carry on its business as presently conducted and as presently proposed to be

with, or results or could result in any violation or breach of, or constitutes
or could constitute (with due notice or lapse of time, or both) a default or
loss of a benefit under, any of the Existing Investment Documents, this
Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, (b) limits or that could limit the

10
connection with any offering of securities of the Purchaser the proceeds of
which are used to fund the investment contemplated by this Agreement, or
otherwise, Purchaser has not granted any rights to any party that would, or
could reasonably be expected to, have any adverse effect on the business,
assets, operations, governance, or regulatory status of TerreStar or any of its
subsidiaries.
4.4. Investment Representations.
(a) NO REGISTRATION. The Purchaser understands that the Shares (i) have
not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or any state
securities laws, (ii) are being offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from
registration contained in the Securities Act based in part on the
representations of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement, and (iii) the
Shares may not be sold unless such disposition is registered under the
Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or is exempt from
registration thereunder.
(B) ACQUISITION FOR OWN ACCOUNT. The Purchaser will acquire the Shares
for its own account, for investment only and not with a view to the distribution
thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act.
(C) ACCREDITED INVESTOR; DOMICILE. The Purchaser is an "accredited
investor" (as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act). The Purchaser is
a resident of the State of Illinois, and the Shares were offered and sold to the
Purchaser solely in the State of Illinois.
(d) PURCHASER ABLE TO BEAR ECONOMIC RISK. The Purchaser has substantial
experience in evaluating and investing in private transactions of securities in
companies similar to TerreStar so that it is capable of evaluating the merits
and risks of its investment in TerreStar and has the capacity to protect its own
interests. The Purchaser understands that an investment in the Shares acquired
pursuant to this Agreement is highly speculative and involves substantial
economic risk. The Purchaser understands that it must bear the economic risk of
this investment indefinitely unless the Shares that the Purchaser purchases are
registered pursuant to the Securities Act, or an exemption from registration is
available for the resale of such securities, and that the Purchaser may sustain,
and is financially able to sustain, a complete loss of its investment pursuant
to this Agreement. The Purchaser understands that TerreStar has no present
intention of registering the Shares. The Purchaser also understands that there
is no assurance that any exemption from registration under the Securities Act
for the resale of such securities will be available and that, even if available,
such exemption may not allow the Purchaser to transfer all or any portion of
Shares under the circumstances, in the amounts or at the times the Purchaser
might propose.
(E) PURCHASER CAN PROTECT ITS INTEREST. By reason of its or of its
management's business or financial experience, the Purchaser has the capacity to
protect its own interests in connection with the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement. Further, the Purchaser is aware of no publication of any
advertisement in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.
11
(F) TERRESTAR INFORMATION. The Purchaser has had an opportunity to
discuss the business, management and financial affairs of TerreStar with
directors, officers and management of TerreStar. The Purchaser has also had the
opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, TerreStar and its
management regarding the terms and conditions of its investment. The Purchaser
is not relying on any representations, warranties or information as to TerreStar
other than the representations and warranties made to it herein or pursuant
hereto.
4.5. No Conflict. The execution and delivery by the Purchaser of this
Agreement and the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, and the
consummation by the Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby and compliance with the provisions hereof and thereof will not (a)
violate or conflict with, or require any consent, approval, notice or filing
under, any provision of any domestic (federal, state or local) or foreign law,
statute, rule or regulation, or any ruling, writ, injunction, order, judgment or
decree of any court, administrative agency or other governmental body applicable
to it, or any of its properties or assets, (b) conflict with, or result in any
violation or breach of, or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time, or
both) a default or loss of a benefit under, or cause or permit the acceleration
under, the terms, conditions or provisions of any indenture, mortgage, guaranty,
lease, license or other contract, agreement or understanding, written or oral,
to which it is a party or to which its properties or assets is subject, which
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Purchaser
or on the Purchaser's ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, (c) result in the creation or imposition of any Encumbrance upon
any of its properties or assets, which could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect on the Purchaser or the Purchaser's ability to
consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (d) violate its
organizational documents.
4.6. Consents. No permit, authorization, consent or approval of or by,
or any notification of or filing with, any person (governmental or private) is
required by Purchaser in connection with the execution, delivery and performance
of this Agreement, or in connection with the execution, delivery and performance
of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, or the consummation by the
Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (other than (i)
notifications or filings required under the HSR Act, the Canadian Communications
Act, the FCC Act and applicable federal or state securities law, if any, which
shall be made on a timely basis and (ii) permits, authorizations, consents and
approvals which, if not obtained, could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect on the Purchaser's ability to consummate the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents).
4.7. Litigation; Orders. There is no civil, criminal or administrative
action, suit, claim, notice, hearing, inquiry, proceeding or investigation at
law or in equity by or before any court, arbitrator or similar panel,
governmental instrumentality or other agency now pending or, to the best
knowledge of the Purchaser, threatened against the Purchaser which if determined
adversely to the Purchaser could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect on the Purchaser's ability to consummate the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement. The Purchaser is not subject to any order, writ,
injunction or decree of any court of any federal, state, municipal or other
domestic or foreign governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency
or instrumentality.
12
4.8. Compliance with Laws; Permits. The Purchaser is and has been,
since the date of its incorporation, in compliance with, and has conducted its
business in compliance with, all federal, state, local and foreign laws, rules,
ordinances, codes, consents, authorizations, registrations, regulations,
decrees, directives, judgments and orders applicable to it, which if the
Purchaser failed to comply would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse
Effect on the Purchaser's ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement and the Transaction Documents.
4.9. Investment Company Act. The Purchaser is not, and immediately
after giving effect to the purchase of the Shares as contemplated by this
Agreement, will not be an "investment company" as such term is defined in the
Investment Company Act and the rules promulgated thereunder.
4.10. Transfer Restrictions. The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that
the Shares will be subject to restrictions on transfer as set forth in the
Stockholders' Agreement.
4.11. Legends. It is understood that the certificates evidencing the
Shares may bear one or all of the following legends, in addition to any other
legends required by applicable federal or state securities laws:
"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN

ARTICLE V
INDEMNIFICATION
---------------
5.1. Indemnification by the Purchaser. The Purchaser shall indemnify
and hold harmless TerreStar and its respective officers, directors, employees
and representatives from and against any and all claims, damages, losses,
liabilities, obligations, costs and expenses (including attorney's fees)
("LOSSES") that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any such
person, in each case arising out of or in connection with: (a) any offering of
securities by the Purchaser the proceeds of which are used to fund the
investment contemplated by this Agreement to the extent such losses do not
directly relate to or arise from a breach by TerreStar of its representations,
warranties, covenants or agreements hereunder or in any Transaction Document,
(b) the breach by the Purchaser of any representation or warranty made to
TerreStar by the Purchaser herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto,
or (c) the breach by the Purchaser of any covenant or agreement contained herein
or in any document delivered pursuant hereto.
5.2. Indemnification by TerreStar. TerreStar shall indemnify and hold
harmless the Purchaser and its officers, directors, employees and
representatives from and against any and all Losses that may be incurred by or
asserted or awarded against any such person, in each case arising out of or in
connection with: (a) the breach by TerreStar of any representation or warranty
made to the Purchaser by TerreStar herein or in any document delivered pursuant
hereto and thereto, or (b) the breach by TerreStar of any covenant or agreement
contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto.
5.3. No Duplication of Remedies. To the extent any party may have more
than one remedy for any Losses incurred by it, it may pursue all available
remedies but in no event shall be entitled to collect and retain any amount
hereunder in excess of its Losses.
5.4. Notice of Claims. All claims for indemnification hereunder shall
be resolved in accordance with the following procedures:
(a) If the party seeking indemnification (the "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") has
incurred or reasonably believes that it may incur any Losses, it shall deliver
promptly written notice to the indemnifying party (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY"),
setting forth the nature and amount of the Losses or potential Losses, if
possible (a "CLAIM NOTICE"). If an Indemnified Party receives notice of a
third-party claim for which it intends to seek indemnification hereunder, it
shall give the Indemnifying Party written notice of such claim, so that the
Indemnifying Party's defense of such claim under this Agreement may be timely
instituted. The failure by an Indemnified Party to provide such written notice
shall not constitute a waiver of the Indemnified Party's right to indemnity
unless such failure has prejudiced the Indemnifying Party's ability to defend
such claim, and then only to the extent of such prejudice.
(b) If, after receiving a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party desires
to dispute such claim or the amount claimed in the Claim Notice, it shall
deliver to the Indemnified Party a written objection to such claim or payment
setting forth the basis for disputing such claim or payment. Such notice shall
be delivered within 30 days after the date the Claim Notice to which it relates
is received by the Indemnifying Party. If no such notice is received within the
aforementioned 30-day period, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to payment
for such Losses from the Indemnifying Party within 10 days of the end of such
30-day objection period.
14
(c) If the Indemnifying Party shall agree that it is responsible for
all amounts that may be recovered in connection with a third-party claim, action
or suit (including waiving any deductible or limit that might otherwise apply
under this Article V) the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to conduct and
control through counsel of its own choosing, which counsel shall be reasonably
acceptable to the Indemnified Party, any third-party claim, action or suit;
provided, that the Indemnifying Party (i) demonstrates to the Indemnified
Party's reasonable satisfaction that it has the financial ability to mount an
appropriate defense of such claim and (ii) diligently contests and defends such
claim. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled at any time, at its own cost and
expense (except that such cost and expense shall be paid by the Indemnifying
Party if the Indemnified Party reasonably determines that the Indemnifying Party
is not adequately representing or, because of a conflict of interest, may not
adequately represent the interests of the Indemnified Party) to participate in
such defense and to be represented by attorneys of its choosing. Except with the
prior written consent of the Indemnified Party no Indemnifying Party, in the
defense of such claim or litigation, shall consent to entry of any judgment or
order, interim or otherwise, or enter into any settlement that provides for
injunctive or other nonmonetary relief affecting the Indemnified Party or that
does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by each claimant or
plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability with respect
to such claim or litigation.
(d) In the event that the Indemnifying Party does not elect to defend
against any third-party claim, the Indemnified Party may defend against such
claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate and the Indemnifying Party shall
be liable for any legal expenses reasonably incurred in connection with such
defense; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Indemnified Party shall not, without the
consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, settle or consent to the entry of judgment with respect to such
third-party claim.
(e) In the event of any claim by a third party, the parties hereto
agree that they will cooperate fully with each other in connection with the
defense or settlement of such matter.
5.5. Limitation on Amounts. The Indemnifying Party shall not be
obligated to pay any amounts for indemnification under this Article V with
respect to breaches of representations and warranties until the aggregate
indemnification obligation of such Indemnifying Party hereunder exceeds
$250,000, whereupon the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for all amounts for
which indemnification may be sought which exceed $250,000. No Indemnifying
Party's liability under this Article V shall exceed the amount of the purchase
price for the Shares pursuant to this Agreement.
ARTICLE VI

or in any similar breach, default or noncompliance thereafter occurring. Any
16
