as being effective.
6. BUILD OUT PLAN
(a) With respect to each Project, Triton will provide Ericsson with a
forecast of Triton's requirements within thirty (30) days following the
effective date of the applicable Statement of Work. Within fifteen (15)
business days following its receipt of the forecast, Ericsson will
review the forecast, seek clarification as needed, perform capacity
analyses, and prepare and submit a proposed Build Out Plan for the
Project to Triton for approval. Triton agrees to provide Ericsson with
its approval or rejection of the Build Out Plan within fifteen (15)
business days after receipt. Such Build Out Plan, if accepted, will
constitute Ericsson's obligation to provide to Triton, and Triton's
obligation to purchase from Ericsson, the Products and Services as set
forth in the Build Out Plan.
(b) The Parties recognize that changes to a Build Out Plan may be necessary
from time to time due to changes to the Project or any other legitimate
business reasons. In the event that Triton desires to change the Build
Out Plan, Triton will promptly provide Ericsson with a description of
the changes desired and such other pertinent information as may be
reasonably requested by Ericsson for its preparation of a revised Build
Out Plan. Within fifteen (15) business days, Ericsson will propose to
Triton a revised Build Out Plan to accommodate the changes desired by
Triton. The Parties will work together in good faith to mutually agree
upon the revised Build Out Plan. Upon such mutual agreement, the
revised Build Out Plan will become effective and supersede any prior
Build Out Plan for the Project.
7. DELIVERY
(a) Ericsson will provide to Triton, and Triton will accept from Ericsson,
the Products and Services in accordance with the Build Out Plan.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

**** Certain information on this page has been omitted from this filing and
filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential
treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.
(b) Triton will have the Installation Site(s) ready on time and in
accordance with the requirements as set forth in Attachment E or as
otherwise mutually agreed in writing. In the event of Triton's failure
to have the Installation Site so ready, and in such circumstances, all
Products shall be deemed shipped and delivered for all purposes upon
storage.
8. ACCEPTANCE
(a) Upon its installation of the applicable Products, Ericsson will conduct
Acceptance testing in accordance with the applicable Acceptance test
plan and criteria set forth in Attachment G or the relevant Statement
of Work, as applicable, to demonstrate that such Products operate in
material conformance with the applicable specifications. Upon
successful completion of the applicable Acceptance testing, Ericsson
will provide Triton with a certificate of Acceptance for such Products.
Within ten (10) business days following its receipt of the certificate
of Acceptance, Triton will either (i) sign and return to Ericsson the
certificate of Acceptance, confirming Triton's Acceptance of such
Products, or (ii) notify Ericsson in writing of Triton's rejection of
such Products, together with the specific deficiencies constituting the
grounds for such rejection; provided that either (1) Triton's failure
to so provide Ericsson with such written notification of rejection
within such 10-business-day period, or (2) Triton's commercial use of
such Products, or a portion thereof, will constitute Acceptance of such
Products. Only service-affecting deficiencies arising out of the
Acceptance testing in accordance with Attachment G or the relevant
Statement of Work, as applicable, shall be grounds for delay of the
applicable Acceptance of such Products. Prior to or upon Triton's
Acceptance of a Product, Triton may provide Ericsson with a written
punchlist of the non-conformities of such Product (the "Punchlist").
Within fifteen (15) days following the Acceptance of such Product,
Triton may update such Punchlist by adding the non-conformities of the
Product identified by Triton after the Acceptance. Ericsson shall
promptly correct the non-conformities identified in the Punchlist. Upon
Ericsson's successful correction of such non-conformities, Ericsson
shall submit to Triton, and Triton shall sign, a certificate verifying
that no further Punchlist items remain unresolved.
(b) Products that do not require or utilize Ericsson installation services
(material-only orders) will be deemed accepted by Triton upon delivery
by Ericsson to Triton.
(c) Triton may not postpone Acceptance due to any deficiencies not
attributable to Ericsson. Neither Party is liable for any delay
resulting from force majeure events as set forth in Section 10.
9. LATE DELIVERY FEES
Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Statement of Work, in
the event that Ericsson fails to meet the delivery commitments set
forth in a Build Out Plan, Ericsson agrees to credit Triton the late
delivery fees as set forth in Attachment I. The foregoing method of
calculating and crediting Triton for late delivery fees shall be
Ericsson's sole liability and Triton's sole remedy for Ericsson's
failure to meet the delivery commitments set forth in any Build Out
Plan. For avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that Ericsson shall not
be responsible for the payment of late delivery fees resulting from
delays to the extent that such delays occur primarily due to Triton's
failure to perform its
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LF#TRI01-004681 REVISION E
G:\Bus Group\Xxx\Triton-3G\MPA.9-17-01.doc Page 7 of 73
responsibilities as set forth in Attachments E, or are caused by an
event of force majeure as set forth in Section 10.
10. EXCUSABLE DELAYS
Neither Ericsson nor Triton will be liable for nonperformance or defective or
late performance of any of their obligations hereunder to the extent and for
such periods of time as such nonperformance, defective performance or late
performance is due to acts of God, war (declared or undeclared), unforeseeable
acts (including failure to act) of any governmental authority (de jure or de
factor) with the exception of zoning or permitting authorities, riots,
revolutions, fire, floods, explosions, sabotage, nuclear incidents, earthquakes,
storms, sinkholes, epidemics, strikes, or delays of suppliers or subcontractors
if no equivalent source for such supplies or services can reasonably be obtained
for the same causes. Subject to the foregoing, in the event that Ericsson's
performance of its obligations hereunder (including, without limitation,
installation or testing of the Products purchased by Triton hereunder) is
delayed due to Triton's failure or delay in the performance of its obligations
hereunder (including, without limitation, failure to prepare the site for
installation of the Products) in according with the applicable Project schedule,
then Ericsson will be entitled to the following remedies:
(a) *****
(b) *****

***** percent (*****%) of the net purchase price of
such Switch; provided that the total amount of such
liquidated damages shall not exceed ***** percent
(*****%) of the net purchase price of such Switch.
The Parties agree that Ericsson shall pay all liquidated damages owed
pursuant to this Section 11(b)(2) in cash.
Unless Triton returns to Ericsson the subject defective Product within
thirty (30) days following the expiration of the 30-day cure period,
Triton shall be deemed to have exercised its sole and exclusive remedy
set forth in Section 11(b)(2) above.
(c) Services (including in-warranty Services) will be made available to
Triton in accordance with, and within the response times defined in,
Ericsson's standard practices and procedures which are set forth in
Attachment C of this Agreement.

or foreign patent, trademark, copyright, trade secret or any other
intellectual property right of any kind ("Infringement Claim"); and
(ii) pay any settlement reached or final award, including reasonable

to continue using each alleged infringing Product; (ii) replace or
modify each such alleged infringing Product with an equivalent product
so that Triton's use is non-infringing, or (iii) if neither (i) nor

infringing Product and provide Triton with the greater of (x) ***** or
(y) *****.
(c) Ericsson has no obligation or liability in respect to any Infringement
Claim in the event that the affected Product: (i) is specifically

used or located by Triton in a country other than the country for which
it was supplied; (iv) is used by Triton in combination with other
products or applications not provided by Ericsson under this Agreement,
provided that the Infringement Claim arises from such combination or
the use thereof; or (v) is modified by Triton without Ericsson's
written authorization, provided the Infringement Claim arises from such
modification. If Triton continues use of the affected Product
notwithstanding Ericsson's request to replace or modify pursuant to
Section 16(b)(ii) or its requirement to return pursuant to Section
16(b)(iii), Ericsson shall not be liable for such use.
(d) THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 16 CONSTITUTE THE EXCLUSIVE RECOURSE OF

extend to any Information which (i) a recipient can demonstrate through
written documentation was already known to the recipient prior to its
disclosure to the recipient: (ii) becomes known or generally available

or subcontractors. If Ericsson and Triton jointly cause such losses,
claims, demands, damages, or causes of action, the Parties shall share
the liability in proportion to their respective degree of causal
responsibility.
(b) LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY
CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT, IN NO EVENT, WHETHER AS A RESULT OF BREACH
OF CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO NEGLIGENCE OR
INFRINGEMENT), SHALL ERICSSON OR TRITON BE LIABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT
FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES OF ANY
NATURE WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS OF THE OTHER PARTY, BEFORE OR
AFTER ACCEPTANCE. THIS LIMITATION SURVIVES ANY TERMINATION OF THIS
AGREEMENT.
19. ASSIGNMENT
Neither Triton nor Ericsson may assign or transfer this Agreement or any of its
rights or obligations to any other entity without the prior written consent of
the other Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed; provided, however, that Triton may, by providing Ericsson with a prior
written notice thereof, assign or transfer this Agreement without the consent of
Ericsson (i) to any Affiliate of Triton, or (ii) to any person or entity that
acquires, through merger, purchase or otherwise, all or substantially all of the

20. TERMINATION
(a) Triton may, at its option and upon written notice to Ericsson,
terminate this Agreement in whole or in part, without penalty, if
Ericsson is in default under any material terms of this Agreement, and
action to correct such default, if curable, is not commenced within
thirty (30) days after receipt of notice from Triton and such default
is not thereafter cured within sixty (60) days after commencement of
correction, unless Ericsson cannot complete such cure within such
period for reasons beyond its control and Ericsson is continuing to
diligently pursue the cure, in which case such default shall be cured
no later than one hundred eighty (180) days after Ericsson's original
receipt of notice under this Section 20(a).
(b) In the event Triton terminates this Agreement in accordance with
Section 20(a), Triton may at its option:
(i) return to Ericsson, freight collect, any Product delivered or
installed which is the subject of the default above if such
default is Ericsson's inability to correct defects therein, in
which event Ericsson shall refund to Triton all amounts paid
to Ericsson under this Agreement with regard to such
Equipment, Software and the Installation thereof; or
(ii) in the event that Ericsson refuses or fails to perform, or
otherwise defaults in, its obligations hereunder, it is agreed
that Triton shall have, in addition to any other rights
available to it, the right to obtain temporary or permanent
performance of such obligations or injunctive relief, as may
be applicable.
Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the remedies provided
in Sections 20(a) and 20(b) shall be Triton's exclusive remedies in
case of termination for default.
(c) Ericsson may terminate this Agreement without any obligation to deliver
Equipment not yet delivered, or, at its option, temporarily suspend its
performance, without liability, under this Agreement, in the event that
Triton is in default under any material terms of this Agreement and
correction is not commenced within thirty (30) days after receipt of
notice from Ericsson and such default is not thereafter cured within
sixty (60) days after commencement of correction, unless Triton cannot
complete such cure within such period for reasons beyond its control
and Triton is continuing to diligently pursue the cure.
(d) If this Agreement expires, or if either Party terminates this Agreement
in accordance with its terms, Ericsson's obligations hereunder with
respect to Equipment already delivered, installed and not returned, and
Triton's obligations with respect to payments for Equipment not
returned, shall continue in full force and effect.
21. DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION
(a) Disputes
(i) Subject to a Party's right to obtain injunctive relief,
Ericsson and Triton will attempt to settle any claim or
controversy between them through consultation and negotiation
in good faith and with a spirit of mutual cooperation. After
attempts to resolve a dispute by Ericsson and Triton have
failed, either Party
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LF#TRI01-004681 REVISION E
G:\Bus Group\Xxx\Triton-3G\MPA.9-17-01.doc Page 15 of 73
may, upon notice to the other, request that such controversy
or claim be referred to the appropriate management personnel
of each Party for negotiation and resolution. If such a
request is made, the applicable and appropriate
management-level personnel of the Parties shall meet in person
or by telephone within seven (7) days after such request and
shall review and attempt to negotiate a mutually acceptable
resolution of the controversy or claim in dispute. If after
such meeting, such attempt to resolve the dispute has failed,
the dispute may, upon mutual consent, be referred to
alternative dispute resolution, mediation or to binding
arbitration. In the event the Parties consent to binding
arbitration, the Parties further agree as follows:
(ii) Three arbitrators will be chosen in accordance with the
procedures of the AAA, which arbitrators will meet within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of all of them to commence
the arbitration.
(b) Arbitration. Other than as specified in this Section, the arbitration
will be conducted in accordance with the arbitration rules promulgated
under the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). The arbitrator(s)
shall be required to furnish, promptly upon conclusion of the
arbitration, a written decision, setting out the reasons for such a
decision. The decision of such arbitration will be final and binding on
the Parties hereto, and any such decision may be enforced by either
Party in any court of competent jurisdiction. Each Party will bear its
own expenses and an equal share of the expenses of the third arbitrator
and the fees, if any of the AAA. Any arbitration shall take place in
New York, New York, unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties.
(c) Non-performance. In the event that either Party believes that an actual
material and substantial breach or nonperformance of an obligation
under this Agreement has been committed by the other Party, that Party
may request that arbitrators be immediately chosen pursuant to this
Section and convened as soon as practicable for the purposes of
evaluating and awarding the appropriate remedy for any such breach.
22. GOVERNING LAW
The construction, interpretation and performance of this Agreement is governed
by the laws of the State of New York, except for its rules with respect to the
conflict of laws.
23. NOTICE
All notices required or permitted under the terms of this Agreement will be in
writing and are deemed given (i) when delivered, if delivered personally against
receipt; (ii) when transmitted, if transmitted by facsimile transmission during
regular business hours, or the next business day if transmitted during
non-business hours; (iii) on the fifth business day after such notice is sent if

to this Agreement or the contents hereof without the prior written
approval of the other Party.

PRODUCT TRAINING
- Ericsson will deliver standard course materials at prices specified in
Attachment A. A standard course is defined as any course listed in the
Ericsson Education Services course catalog. The price to deliver any
new course material or customized training will be negotiated in good
faith and mutually agreed in writing by the Parties.
- If Triton requests training at a site other than Ericsson's training
facilities, Ericsson can deliver the proposed courses at the site
designated by Triton; provided the facilities at such designated site
have enough resources to allow for required hands-on exercises. Courses
that require interface to Triton's network must be completed before the
network is running live traffic. Ericsson can provide equipment for
hands-on exercises (i.e, Switch on Wheels) for additional fee.
- For Triton-site training, Triton will be responsible for non-tuition
costs incurred. Non-tuition fees include instructors' actual travel,
living costs, and setup fees in addition to the tuition charges. A cost
per class day will be charged to Triton to cover instructor travel and
living costs. Additional setup fees are determined by the course(s)
requested for Triton-site delivery. If Triton chooses to establish its
own training lab, Ericsson can provide assistance with the initial
set-up on an as quoted basis. An estimate of the expenses will be
provided prior to the class for Triton's approval.
- Cancellations for individual trainees made ten (10) or more business
days prior to the class start will be accepted without any penalty.
Cancellations made less than ten (10) business days prior to the class
start date, as well as no-shows, will be charged the full price of the
training.
- Classes arranged specifically for Triton must be canceled one (1) month
prior to scheduled start date to avoid cancellation charges.
- The tuition for each student attending an instructor led class is based
on the number of competence units (CUs) multiplied by the rate per CU,
which will apply for all TDMA to GSM standard training courses listed
in Attachment A through calendar year 2003. Such CU rates are subject
to change in calendar year 2004 and thereafter.
- If the training is held in a non-Ericsson facility, Triton will
reimburse Ericsson for the actual out-of-pocket travel and travel
related expenses reasonably incurred by Ericsson in connection with the
provision of such training.
- Ericsson can arrange for specially scheduled classes exclusively for
Triton's personnel at an Ericsson training facility ("buy-outs").
Buy-outs require the purchase of the minimum number of seats. Refer to
the course descriptions for minimum numbers.

ATTACHMENT I
LATE DELIVERY FEES
This Attachment I describes the liquidated damages agreed to by the Parties for
certain types of performance delays and other issues that may arise under the
Agreement. *****
1. DELAYED LAUNCH
If and to the extent that a "Market Acceptance" (defined below), with respect to
Triton's initial commercial launch of its GSM/GPRS system in a Market assigned
by Triton to Ericsson under this Agreement, is delayed due to Ericsson's failure
to meet its delivery commitments set forth in the applicable Build Out Plan,
then Ericsson agrees to pay liquidated damages in the amount of ***** percent
(*****%) of the price of the Products to be provided by Ericsson to Triton
hereunder for Triton's initial commercial launch of its GSM/GPRS system in such
Market, per week, for each full week of delay, up to a maximum of ***** percent
(*****%) of the price of such Products. For these purposes "Market Acceptance"
is defined as Site Acceptance of one hundred percent (100%) of the agreed number
of Cell Sites in a Market, less any peripheral and overlapping sites. For these
purposes, (a) a "peripheral site" means a site that is located on the very outer
perimeter of a Market, and (b) an "overlapping site" means a site that is
substantially covered by neighboring sites to the extent it maintains the
required signal coverage. In the event that Triton proceeds with the initial
commercial launch of its GSM/GPRS system in the Market by the scheduled launch
date set forth in the applicable Build Out Plan even though Ericsson has not
completed all of the required Cell Sites, then Ericsson agrees to pay, in lieu
of any other liquidated damages set forth in this Section 1 or 2, liquidated
damages in the amount of ***** percent (*****%) of the price of the delayed
Products to be provided by Ericsson to Triton hereunder for Triton's initial
commercial launch of its GSM/GPRS system in such Market, per week, for each full
week of delay, up to a maximum of ***** percent (*****%) of the price of such
delayed Products.
2. DELIVERY OR IMPLEMENTATION SERVICE DELAYS AFTER A MARKET HAS LAUNCHED.
After a Market has launched, Ericsson agrees to pay liquidated damages for any
delays in deliveries of Product associated with individual Cell Sites. The
amount of liquidated damages will be ***** percent (*****%) per week for every
full week of delay (up to a maximum of *****%). The amount of liquidated damages
will be measured against the price of the delayed Product to be delivered to
such site. For delays in delivery of a complete Cell Site, a delay shall be
measured from the date of scheduled Site Acceptance to the date of Site
Acceptance. For delays in delivery of individual components of an existing Cell
Site a delay shall be measured from the delivery date established in the
applicable Build-Out Plan or Statement of Work to the actual delivery date.
3. EXCEPTIONS.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the liquidated damages set forth in this
Attachment I do not apply to the following circumstances, but only in
the event, and to the extent, that the delay is attributable to such
circumstances:
(a) Any Market for which the Parties mutually agree that
liquidated damages will not apply due to special or unusual
market circumstances.

its agents, subcontractors or vendors (other than Ericsson)),
or force majeure events.
