Supplier grants to MetroPCS a non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable (except as provided in Section 11.3(c)), worldwide, ***, ***, fully paid, ***, non-transferable (except as set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.4, 15.6 or in the applicable Procurement Document) license: (a) for MetroPCS and its Authorized Users to use the Software and Documentation; and (b) for MetroPCS to copy the Software and Documentation as required for archival, backup, testing, training, development (for MetroPCS’ incorporation into MetroPCS’ network or business or operational support systems) and other, similar purposes, ***. Notwithstanding the foregoing restriction on the transferability of Software licenses, in connection with a sale, transfer, contribution or pledge as security of any Products to a Third Party, MetroPCS shall have the right to assign its Software license rights for Software included in such Products to such Third Party ***; provided, however, that, except for the sale, transfer or contribution of all or substantially all of the assets of the company or pledge of such Products, MetroPCS will provide Supplier advance notice of any such sale or transfer of Products to a Third Party ***.

3.1.2 Optional Software Features. Software licensed by Supplier to MetroPCS under this Agreement may contain optional features that are separately licensed and priced. Optional features will not be activated by MetroPCS without authorization from Supplier and MetroPCS’ payment of the applicable license fees, if any. If, in spite of MetroPCS’ commercially reasonable efforts to comply with the foregoing restriction, such features are activated, MetroPCS promptly shall notify Supplier that such features were activated. If Supplier identifies activation of any such features, Supplier promptly shall notify MetroPCS of the activation of such features. Upon any such notice by one party to the other party, at its option, MetroPCS shall either discontinue its use of such features or, if otherwise a chargeable item to MetroPCS, pay to Supplier *** for the activated features (subject to ***).

3.1.3 Ownership Rights Reserved. Except as expressly granted hereunder, no other rights, licenses, title or ownership of Intellectual Property Rights to the Software and Documentation or any copy, translation, compilation or other derivative work are transferred or granted to MetroPCS hereunder, and title and ownership to such Software and Documentation shall remain with Supplier. Promptly following MetroPCS’ request, Supplier shall provide to MetroPCS any information that is reasonably necessary to enable MetroPCS to create interoperability between the Software licensed hereunder and other products, software or systems. MetroPCS shall not disassemble, reverse compile, reverse engineer or otherwise translate the Software licensed hereunder; provided, however, that MetroPCS may reverse engineer or decompile the Software: (a) to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, if Supplier fails to provide to MetroPCS promptly following MetroPCS’ request any information that is reasonably necessary to enable MetroPCS to create interoperability between the Software licensed hereunder and other products, software or systems provided that any use by MetroPCS shall be restricted to the uses permitted under Section 3.1.1; and (b) for any other purposes to which Supplier consents

3.1.4 Additional Licensing Terms. The parties may agree in a Procurement Document to additional product-specific license terms.

3.2 Interfaces. Supplier acknowledges that MetroPCS is working with a number of Third Parties in the development, maintenance and support of MetroPCS’ various systems and that MetroPCS’ use of the Products will involve the use and/or development of one or more Interfaces between such products, software and systems and the Products. Accordingly, Supplier shall: (a) make available for licensing by MetroPCS ***, any 3GPP Standardized Product Interfaces that are owned by Supplier or any of its Affiliates; and (b) ***, from and after the Effective Date, maintain and disclose publicly detailed 3GPP Standardized Interface Specifications for the Products, so that Third Parties will be able to create Interfaces between the Products and such Third Parties’ products, software and systems. If there is an option in the 3GPP Standardized Interface Specifications with regard to implementation of the 3GPP Standardized Interface Specifications, Supplier shall *** disclose which option has been selected. In addition, from and after the Effective Date, ***, Supplier shall make available to MetroPCS promptly following MetroPCS’ request, detailed Interface Specifications for the Products that are in addition to the 3GPP Standardized Interface Specifications so that MetroPCS will be able to create Interfaces between the Products and other products, software and systems, and MetroPCS may disclose such detailed Interface Specifications to Third Parties pursuant to nondisclosure agreements entered into with MetroPCS solely for the purpose of developing Interfaces between the Products and other MetroPCS and Third Party products, software, or systems. If MetroPCS wants Supplier to develop an Interface, such Interface development shall constitute Custom Programming and shall be developed in accordance with the terms set forth in Section 3.3

3.3 Custom Programming. MetroPCS shall have the right to request that Supplier develop Custom Programming including, without limitation, Interfaces.

Supplier’s prices are exclusive of any national, federal, state, provincial, local or other sales, use, excise, value-added, customs and other taxes or like charges arising hereunder and MetroPCS shall reimburse Supplier, or pay all such taxes and charges directly, as appropriate. If Supplier has paid or will pay such taxes or charges on MetroPCS’ behalf, Supplier shall separately list on its invoices any such taxes or charges, except where MetroPCS furnishes evidence of a lawful exemption.

Where applicable, Supplier shall ensure that its invoices to MetroPCS are issued in such a way that these invoices meet the requirements for deduction of input value-added tax by MetroPCS.

If MetroPCS takes possession of Products in the United States from Supplier and such transfer is subject to sales or use tax of a particular state in the United States, MetroPCS will reimburse Supplier for any such taxes paid by Supplier over and above the purchase price for such goods; provided, however, that MetroPCS shall not reimburse Supplier for any such taxes charged against Supplier or MetroPCS on account of Supplier’s mis-delivery or other failure to comply with MetroPCS’ delivery instructions.

10.4.4 Protested Taxes. Supplier shall promptly notify MetroPCS in writing of: (a) any Tax Assessment by a state or local taxing authority; and (b) any decision with respect to a Tax Assessment which has been appealed or protested; provided, however, that Supplier shall in all instances give MetroPCS written notice of such event no later than *** prior to the date by which a response, protest, contest, or other appeal of such Tax Assessment must be filed. In the first instance, Supplier shall have the exclusive right to contest any Tax Assessment at its own expense. If all or any portion of a Tax Assessment must be paid in order to contest the imposition of any such Tax Assessment in connection with a contest that Supplier elects to pursue, or to avoid the existence of a lien on the assets of Supplier during the pendency of such contest, Supplier shall be responsible for such payment and shall be entitled to the benefit of any refund or recovery. MetroPCS shall pay all valid final and non-appealable Tax Assessments (or reimburse Supplier in the event Supplier pays any or all valid final and non-appealable Tax Assessments) upon presentation by Supplier of proof of a valid final and non-appealable Tax Assessment. MetroPCS’ liability for valid final and non-appealable Tax Assessments will be limited to the actual tax that was originally due without respect to any sampling projection that may occur during a tax audit.

If Supplier elects not to contest a Tax Assessment, Supplier must either: (c) waive its right to reimbursement from MetroPCS for that Tax Assessment in which event MetroPCS shall have no right to contest the Tax Assessment and MetroPCS shall have no liability for such Tax Assessment; or (d) promptly notify MetroPCS in writing that it is: (1) not responding, protesting, contesting, or appealing the Tax Assessment; and (2) seeking reimbursement for the Tax Assessment as if it were a valid final and non-appealable Tax Assessment which notice shall set forth the legal and/or factual basis for not contesting the Tax Assessment along with a copy of the Tax Assessment; provided, however, that Supplier shall in all instances give MetroPCS written notice of such decision to not protest, contest or appeal such Tax Assessment no later than *** prior to the date by which a response, contest, protest or other appeal of such

-28-

Tax Assessment must be filed; provided, further, that Supplier may not elect the option set forth in subparagraph (d) (e.g., to notify MetroPCS and not protest, contest, or appeal a Tax Assessment) unless Supplier has a good faith belief that there is no reasonable basis in Law or fact for a contest, protest, or appeal of such Tax Assessment; provided, finally, that in the event that Supplier elects the option set forth in subparagraph (d) and fails to notify MetroPCS in writing in time to allow MetroPCS to file a response, protest, or contest, Supplier shall be deemed to have waived its right to seek reimbursement from MetroPCS for that Tax Assessment. In the instance Supplier notifies MetroPCS that it is not contesting the Tax Assessment, MetroPCS may elect, at its sole discretion, to pursue the contest of the Tax Assessment in good faith, at its own expense, or to pay to Supplier the Tax Assessment. If MetroPCS elects to contest a Tax Assessment and, further, in the event that all or a portion of a Tax Assessment must be paid in order to contest the imposition of any such Tax Assessment or to avoid the existence of a lien on the assets of Supplier during the pendency of such contest, MetroPCS shall be responsible for such payment. If any such contest must be pursued in the name of Supplier, Supplier shall permit MetroPCS to pursue and control the contest in the name of Supplier, and Supplier shall have the opportunity to participate fully in the preparation of such contest at its own expense. In any contest of a Tax Assessment, the party bringing the protest shall promptly furnish the other party with written notice of the pending proceeding, copies of all filings in any proceeding, protest, contest, or legal challenge, all rulings issued in connection therewith, all correspondence between such party and the state or local taxing authority, the final resolution thereof, and any action therein that would affect Supplier’s obligation to collect and remit, and the party bringing the contest shall allow the other party to participate in such contest with its own counsel at its own expense.

12.1.2 Custom Programming. Except to the extent the parties expressly agree otherwise in a Procurement Document, and except as hereinafter provided in this Section, MetroPCS shall be the sole and exclusive owner of all Custom Programming, and all Intellectual Property Rights in and to such Customer Programming. No Supplier Personnel shall incorporate any materials owned by Supplier (including Supplier Pre-Existing Materials), its Affiliates or Third Parties into any Custom Programming without the prior written consent of MetroPCS and without first granting to or otherwise obtaining for MetroPCS a non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable (except as provided in Section 11.3(c)), ***, non-assessable, fully paid, ***, transferable, sublicensable (through multiple tiers) right and license under any and all Intellectual Property Rights of Supplier, its Affiliates or such Third Parties for MetroPCS, either directly or through its Personnel, to modify, copy, distribute, transmit, display, disclose, make, use, import, practice any process or method and fully exploit all such Supplier, its Affiliates or Third Party materials in such Custom Programming (it being the understanding of the parties that MetroPCS shall not own any materials owned by Supplier, its Affiliates or Third Parties that are incorporated into the Custom Programming, but MetroPCS shall have a license to use the same). Subject to the foregoing, ownership of the Custom Programming and any portion thereof shall inure to the benefit of MetroPCS from the date of the conception, creation or fixation of the applicable Custom Programming in a tangible medium of expression (whichever occurs first). Each copyrightable aspect of Custom Programming shall be considered a “work-made-for-hire” within the meaning of the Copyright Act of 1976, as amended. If and to the extent any Custom Programming, or any part thereof or Intellectual Property Rights therein or thereto, is not considered to be a “work-made-for-hire” within the meaning of the Copyright Act of 1976, as amended, Supplier hereby irrevocably and unconditionally expressly and automatically assigns to MetroPCS, without further act required on the part of either party, all exclusive right, title and interest in and to such Custom Programming, any and all portions thereof, and any and all Intellectual Property Rights therein and thereto, without further consideration, free from any claim, lien for balance due, or rights of retention thereto on the part of the Supplier. Supplier acknowledges that the parties do not intend Supplier to be a joint author (within the meaning of the Copyright Act of 1976, as amended) of any Custom Programming, and that Supplier shall in no event be deemed the joint author of any Custom Programming. MetroPCS agrees that it shall not transfer any Custom Programming to a Supplier Competitor. Additionally, Supplier may use a certain piece of Custom Programming after *** following *** of such Custom

If and to the extent requested by MetroPCS, Supplier and its Personnel shall execute and deliver to MetroPCS any and all patent, copyright or other applications, assignments, and other documents that MetroPCS requests for protecting Custom Programming, whether in the United States or any other country, territory or jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the forgoing, MetroPCS shall prepare all patent applications for protecting Custom Programming. MetroPCS shall have the full and sole power to prosecute such patent, copyright or other applications and to take all other actions concerning the Custom Programming. Without any further consideration, Supplier shall cooperate, and Supplier shall cause its Personnel to cooperate, in the preparation, filing and prosecution of all such applications and in any legal actions and proceedings concerning Custom Programming, and shall take (or cause to be taken) all reasonable actions requested by MetroPCS to achieve the objectives described in this Section. Except when there is a reasonable dispute between Supplier and MetroPCS regarding ownership of the applicable intellectual property, if MetroPCS is unable for any reason to secure signature(s) on any document that Supplier and/or its Personnel are required to execute under this Section, Supplier (on behalf of itself and its Personnel) hereby irrevocably designates and appoints MetroPCS and MetroPCS’ duly authorized officers and agents as the agents and attorneys-in-fact to act for and on behalf of and instead of Supplier and/or its Personnel to execute such document with the same legal force and effect as if executed by Supplier and/or its Personnel.

In addition, if the Recipient or any of its Personnel are requested or required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents in legal proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process) to disclose any of the Discloser’s Confidential Information, the Recipient, to the extent permitted by Law, shall not disclose the Confidential Information without providing the Discloser with reasonable prior written notice of any such request or requirement so that the Discloser may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Recipient shall use commercially reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality of the Discloser’s Confidential Information including, without limitation, by cooperating with the Discloser at the Discloser’s expense to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information by such tribunal.

Without MetroPCS’ prior written consent, Supplier will not agree to any settlement or any compromise that does not provide a full and complete release of the MetroPCS Indemnified Parties from any and all liability with respect to such Infringement Claim. If the terms of such a proposed settlement would require a MetroPCS Indemnified Party to take any action (including, without limitation, to pay money damages that will not be paid in full by Supplier, or to refrain from taking any action), Supplier shall obtain MetroPCS’ prior written consent to those terms of the settlement.

During such discussions, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party full access to all records, data and Personnel of the Indemnified Party as may be reasonably necessary to make such determination. If the parties are unable to agree on whether the Indemnifying Party is required to indemnify the Indemnified Party under the terms of Sections 13.1, 13.2 or 15.3, as applicable, the Indemnifying Party, at its option, shall either assume or decline defense of the Third Party Action, including negotiations for its settlement or compromise. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the terms of Section 11.5.1 shall not apply to the parties’ indemnification obligations under this Article.

13.3.2 Defense Assumed. If the Indemnifying Party assumes defense of a Third Party Action as described herein, the Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate at the Indemnifying Party’s expense with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of such Third Party Action and may be represented, at the Indemnified Party’s expense, by counsel of its choice, provided that, where the Indemnifying Party has assumed defense of a Third Party Action, the Indemnifying Party shall have sole control over such defense. The Indemnifying Party shall not be responsible for defending Third Party Actions other than those described in Sections 13.1, 13.2 or 15.3, as applicable, even if brought in the same suit. In addition to the foregoing, if a court of competent jurisdiction later determines that a Third Party Action for which the Indemnifying Party assumed defense was not eligible for indemnification under Sections 13.1, 13.2 or 15.3, as applicable, within *** following such determination, the Indemnified Party shall reimburse the Indemnifying Party in full for all Losses incurred in connection with such Third Party Action.

13.3.3 Defense Declined. If the Indemnifying Party declines to assume defense of any Third Party Action, and it is later determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Third Party Action was eligible for indemnification under Sections 13.1, 13.2 or 15.3, as applicable, within *** following such determination, the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party in full for all Losses incurred in connection with such Third Party Action.

13.3.4 Settlement of Claims. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Third Party Action without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Parties if such settlement: (a) materially diminishes any of the Indemnified Party’s rights under this Agreement or seeks to impose additional obligations on the Indemnified Party; or (b) arises out of or is a part of any criminal action, suit or proceeding or contains a stipulation or admission or acknowledgement of any liability or wrongdoing (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) on the part of the Indemnified Party.

13.3.5 Contributory Negligence; Right of Contribution. Nothing contained herein shall bar a claim for contributory negligence between the parties or a party’s right of contribution.

Supplier shall, on or before the Effective Date and thereafter upon MetroPCS’ reasonable request, provide MetroPCS with validated copies of all applicable endorsements naming MetroPCS, its Affiliates and Designated Entities as “additional insureds”, as required, and evidencing such coverage in the minimum amounts, which shall also state that MetroPCS shall be provided a minimum of thirty (30) days prior written notice of: (i) any proposed cancellation, (ii) an expiration without renewal, or (iii) any proposed change in carriers or material terms of coverage. Supplier shall require, obtain or otherwise arrange for levels of insurance coverage for all subcontractors that, at a minimum, satisfies the Supplier’s minimum requirements under this Agreement including, without limitation, with respect to limits, terms and conditions of such coverage. Supplier shall use its best efforts to have MetroPCS added as an additional insured on its subcontractors’ insurance policies. Supplier shall maintain, in its files, evidence of all subcontractors’ insurance coverage and shall provide proof of such coverage to MetroPCS. If coverage is denied or reimbursement of a properly presented claim is disputed by the carrier for insurance provided as described above, upon written request, Supplier shall provide MetroPCS with a certified copy of the involved insurance policy or policies within *** of receipt of such request. The terms of this Section shall not be deemed to limit the liability of Supplier hereunder, or to limit any rights MetroPCS may have including, without limitation, rights of indemnity or contribution. The minimum limits of insurance required under this Agreement shall not be construed to affect or reduce in any manner the limit of insurance afforded MetroPCS under such policies. Language in any insurance policy purchased by Supplier limiting the limit of liability thereunder to any minimum limit required in this Agreement shall not apply.

3	Requesting an RMA

Ericsson provides the customer with a system for keeping track of faulty equipment that is returned for repair or replacement with Ericsson. This system is referred to as the Return Material Authorization (RMA) method.

The RMA provides advance notice to Ericsson of what to expect in each shipment. This allows for additional planning to ensure that replacement units are available making this a very expedient and efficient method for material tracking.

The process for requesting an RMA is outlined below.

3.1

Contact Ericsson to Request an RMA Number

The following are the various methods to contact Ericsson.


E-mail:		Xxxxxx.Xxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxx.xxx

Fax:		000-000-0000

Phone:		x0-000-000-0000 (direct)

		x0-000-000-0000 (Toll Free)

3.2

Equipment-to-be-Returned

The following details are required when returning equipment.

•

Place ID (or address)

•

Part Number

•

Revision

•

Quantity

•

Internal reference number if applicable

•

Purchase order, cost center or charge code if applicable

Ericsson will verify the list of equipment for each RMA and within one (1) working day of receiving the request, an RMA number will be issued.

4	Rules for Expedient Service

Follow the below directions to assure that each shipment receives expedient service.

•

Limit the number of items on each RMA to 25

•

This allows for better control in our IS/IT tool.

•

Do not make any shipments without an RMA number and please include a copy of the RMA acknowledgement within each box

•

Always write the RMA number on the Repair Delivery Note attached to each unit

•

Do not mix several RMA’s in the same box

•

Ship units for repair on a regular basis. Do not stock pile. Large quantities of the same item will overload the repair flow and will result in turn around time delays.

4.1

Incomplete/Incorrect RMA Information

If a shipment is received by Ericsson, with incomplete/incorrect RMA information the shipment will be delayed. For example, if a shipment is received without an RMA number the product will be returned to the customer at their cost.

5	Repair Delivery Note

The information that is supplied in the repair delivery note (RDN) can make the Hardware Services process successful or unsuccessful. It is important to acquire the RMA authorization number and use the correct tracking numbers in this form as incomplete paperwork can slow down the repair process.

The RDN is the most important document in the repair/return process. An incomplete or incorrect RDN will cause the following areas to be impacted:

•

Tracking Fault tracing and fault statistics

•

Avoiding No Fault Found Conclusion (NFF)

•

Reducing the customer’s costs

•

Improving systems performance

5.1

How to Complete the Repair Delivery Note (RDN)

There are three basic scenarios that may occur in the field when a unit is tested and pulled for the purpose of sending it in for repair. To ensure accuracy, complete the RDN at the site and attach the RDN to the unit using the forms elastic string. In addition to these instructions, the RDN has instructions printed on the reverse side.

5.1.1

Unit Displays a Single Fault Code

In this case the field technician should record that fault code in Box #16 on the repair tag associated with that unit. It is also important to fill out all other information on the tag

5.1.2

No Fault Code Displayed or Fault Codes do not Apply to the Particular Piece of Hardware

Please write the word “TEXT” in Box #16 of the repair tag. Provide a description of the problem in Box #20. Example: “Fan motor burned out” or “No Power”.

5.1.3

Multiple Faults Given During Testing

In this case, write “MULT” in Box #16 of the repair tag. Please note: In Box #20, write the following message: “See attached fault report documentation”. Place a copy of all test and fault documentation into a protective bag and securely affix this to the unit.

5.4

How to Order New Forms

To order new repair delivery notes, please contact the SCOC Americas Order Desk as outlined in section 1.1 of this document.

6	Incomplete Paperwork

Processing a faulty unit may become impossible when information is missing from the forms or other paperwork. If a faulty product is designated as non-conforming due to incomplete paperwork from the customer, and if Ericsson cannot receive clarification within five working days of receiving the product, the product will be returned to the originator.

7	Shipping Instructions for Faulty Product

When performing any of the steps in shipping instructions it is imperative to follow proper electrostatic discharge (ESD) procedures to prevent additional damage to the units requiring repair. Please refer to Section 8 for the instructions on ESD handling.

8	ESD Procedures

At EUS Hardware Services it is assumed that all electronic components are sensitive to ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) damage. ESD components or assemblies are not to be touched, unless components, the assembly and the person are properly grounded to the same common ground point. ESD components or assemblies will not be transported, stored or handled except in a static protective environment.

8.1

ESD Product Handling

The grounding of personnel will solve nearly 80% of static related problems. Therefore, personnel must use a wrist strap when handling ESD material that is not in static shielding bags. (Pink poly bags do not generate static themselves, but they will not completely protect the ESD material from ESD damage and therefore must only be handled after applying a wrist strap). ESDS material should only be handled at an ESD protective workstation. It is mandatory that personnel wear wrist straps when handling ESD material at ESD workstations or during the installation and removal of the same from the upper assembly or system. Personnel should immediately ground themselves upon arrival at an ESD workstation. (In cases where freedom of movement is necessary over an extended area, and heel straps or conductive shoes are worn on a conductive or static dissipative floor or mat, it is not necessary to wear a wrist strap).

8.2

Mechanical Handling

Machines or equipment used in handling ESD material such as test equipment or automatic insertion machines shall be grounded. In addition, conveyor systems, solder-frames and fixtures should be made of conductive or static dissipative material and grounded.

8.3

Storage

The storage of ESD material (both short and long term) will be in such a way as to prevent electrostatic charging and discharging. ESD material should not be received into storage without the proper ESD protection.

Non-packaged components or assemblies shall be kept in ESD protective totes made of conductive or static dissipative material. All ESD material delivered from storage must be delivered in ESD protective packaging or in ESD protective totes.

At workstations, ESD components should be kept in anti-static or screened packages or boxes. Small collection boxes of ordinary plastic are acceptable if collection takes place by hand. However, should the collection box need to be replaced, it should be replaced with an ESD protective material.

8.4

Transport

ESD material is to be protected against ESD damage during transport. ESD material is to be transported in ESD protective packages such as anti-static tubes, static shielding bags, boxes, dissipative totes, etc.

EUS/GF/G [Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx]		2009-04-01	S

Transport vehicles such as carts, should be conductive from the loading surface to the floor by means of conductive castors or have a conductive chain attached that will contact the ground. This will allow the charge that the cart generates during transit to dissipate some of the charge. It is recommended that the cart be discharged by grounded personnel, subsequent to removing any ESD material from the cart.

Conveyors used to transport ESD material should be a conductive or dissipative material connected to ground.

Totes should be static dissipative (105 – 109 Wsq.) and will require grounding by either personnel who are properly grounded or by placing the totes on a grounded static dissipative surface prior to placing ESD items into or removing them from the totes.

9	When to Prepare Faulty Equipment for Shipment

Once the RMA is authorized the faulty unit(s) can be prepared for shipment. The equipment must be packaged properly and completed paperwork, i.e., Repair Delivery Note, must be included with the shipment.

10	How to Package Non-ESD Sensitive Units

10.1

Steps to Follow

Attach a completed Repair Delivery Note (RDN) to each faulty unit using the RDN’s elastic string.

Package each faulty unit individually in a box.

After packaging each faulty unit in a box, pack the boxes in one big box or crate for shipping. Use the crate in which you received return equipment if possible.

Xxxx the goods with the RMA number and sequentially number the crates.

Ensure that all units are packaged properly to avoid any damage during shipping.

11	How to Package ESD Sensitive Units

Please note: returned hardware must be completely de-installed. All connective materials, such as cables, brackets, plugs, etc. should be removed and not shipped with the faulty part. Ericsson cannot guarantee the return of any extraneous equipment included in the shipment.

11.1

Steps to Follow

When a backplane fails, remove all boards from the magazine and ship only the backplane. Attach a completed RDN (repair delivery note) to the backplane and pack it individually in a box.

When a board fails, remove the board from the magazine and ship only the board for repair. Attach a completed RDN to the board and wrap it individually in anti-static packaging. Use the box and the packing material that held the spare unit if possible.

NOTE: As a last resort, if the failure cannot be isolated to one specific board or backplane, remove all boards from the magazine, attach a completed RDN to each, and pack each board individually in anti-static packaging. Try to always isolate the failure to the board level, however, and avoid sending all boards for convenience sake.

IMPORTANT: According to the section in the customer contract regarding hidden latent occurrences, Ericsson will not accept equipment damaged by natural disasters.

12	How to Handle a Damaged Shipment

12.1

Customer Handling

When equipment is returned from Ericsson, inspect the shipping container for any damages. If the container or packing material is damaged, inspect the units immediately.

If transportation damage of the units is observed, report the damage in writing to the shipping agent, prior to accepting the shipment.

Immediately call the Hardware Services Service Center and report the damages. The customer should submit the report within 5 working days from the time of receipt or the report will not be accepted by Ericsson.

If the shipment was returned in a wooden crate, store the crate and the internal packaging for shipping future faulty equipment.
