the Agreement (the "Initial HMP"). Hardware repair services are
made available to Customer for a period of [***] from the date
Product is shipped from Seller's factory to Customer. Following
the expiration of the Initial HMP, Customer has a choice of (i)
subscribing to Seller's HMP on an annual basis pursuant to the
terms herein and at the HMP fees set forth in Exhibit A
("Extended HMP") for the duration of the term of the Agreement

FRUs at Seller's then current repair rates.
2.2. Seller shall:
2.2.1. If a defect occurs, either (i) repair the defective FRU or

replaced will be deemed to be on an exchange basis, and any
item retained by Seller through replacement will become the
property of Seller.
2.2.2. FRUs that have been repaired or replaced will be warranted for
a period of time which is the longer of (i) [***] from the
date of shipment of FRU to Customer or (ii) [***].
2.2.3. At the request of Customer and if an emergency situation
exists and requires an expedited shipment, Seller shall ship a
replacement FRU in advance of Customer returning the defective
FRU to Seller.
2.2.4. In a non-emergency situation, Seller shall ship a repaired or
replacement FRU to Customer within [***] days of receipt of a
defective FRU from Customer. Equipment not manufactured by
Seller will be repaired or replaced as promptly as
arrangements with the manufacturers or vendors thereof permit.

emergency situation that required an expedited shipment,
Customer agrees to provide confirmation of shipment of such
defective FRU, freight prepaid, to Seller (at address shown in
Annex A to this exhibit) within 5 days of Seller's shipment of
replacement FRU. Customer agrees to promptly pay Seller's
invoice for the replacement FRU (billed at the then current
FRU price) shipped to Customer if the defective FRU is not
returned to Seller within the specified 5 day period.
2.3.6. Be responsible for the initial identification of Product
problems down to the FRU level and for the removal, shipment
and re-installation of the malfunctioning FRU.

Introduction
This exhibit establishes the Performance Criteria and Procedure to be used for
the Engineering and Optimization for the Products ("Product" shall mean Seller's
SpotLight 2000 product). The Engineering and Optimization Procedure consists of
[***]. The Engineering and Optimization Procedure consists of separate
activities for analog and CDMA consisting of:
. Product Configuration Planning
. Measurement Process
. Baseline Performance Collection
. Product Optimization
. Performance Collection and
Evaluation
Completion of the Engineering and Optimization of a SpotLight shall be indicated
by [***] found at the end of this Exhibit E.
Product Configuration Planning
In order for Customer and Seller to configure the Product, Customer must provide
the following specific cell site information for all current and planned sites
in the area of Customer's network where Product is to be installed. The
information is required for all sites regardless of whether the SpotLight
Product is to be installed in that particular site, unless specifically
designated as "Required for Product sites only" in the list below, which
indicates that the information is required only for sites where Product is to be
installed.

Measurement Process
The collection and measurement process described in this section will be
followed during both the Baseline Performance Collection and the Performance
Collection and Evaluation. Drive test route(s), drive test equipment, data to
be collected during drive tests, number of runs per drive test route and
frequency of data sampling all must be agreed to by Customer and Seller prior to
beginning the Measurement Process.
Information discovered in the drive tests and information that must be provided
by customer and included in both the Baseline Performance Collection and the
Performance Collection and Evaluation include but are not limited to:
[***]
In addition to collecting the above information, switch statistics from the
previous year must be analyzed to determine if adjustments due to seasonal
variation between the baseline data collection phase and the Product data
collection phase need to be made. Customer must provide either the actual
switch statistics or summaries of seasonal statistical traffic trends.
Customer must provide a log of all system changes during both the Baseline
Performance Collection phase and the Performance Collection and Evaluation
phase, recording the occurrences of such events as cell site additions,
frequency re-tunes, outages, etc. Customer must collect the switch statistics
and provide them to Metawave on a daily basis.
The calculation for Lost Calls Percentage and Ineffective Attempts Percentage
will be calculated using the following equations unless otherwise agreed to by
Seller and Customer:

Baseline Performance Collection
Using the procedure set forth in the Measurement Process section of this
exhibit, Customer and Seller will perform drive tests to determine the current
performance characteristics of the existing CDMA and analog networks. Customer
and Seller must agree in writing as to the validity of baseline switch statistic
data and drive test data.
The duration of the baseline sampling time period shall be mutually agreed upon.
[***]. Switch statistics collected during the baseline sampling time period
will include both daily summaries (excluding maintenance windows) and system
busy hour summaries.
Product Optimization
Optimization consists of adjusting any necessary parameters in the Product,
switch or cell site parameters. Drive testing data and switch statistics
will be used to monitor the performance of the system. Product optimization
will be performed by Seller with assistance as required by Customer.
Optimization may include up to three iterations of CDMA Sector Synthesis,
the number of which will be determined by evaluating cell site performance
statistics. Seller and Customer will jointly determine when the Product has
been properly optimized including cell site footprint and any modifications
to the footprint agreed to by Customer and Seller.
Performance Collection and Evaluation
