2.2.2. Implementation Plan for New Services. Attached as Schedule 2.2.2 hereto is an Implementation Plan describing Services that Vendor did not provide under the Original Agreement, but which will be provided under this Agreement.

7.3.2. Exceptions. The obligations of this Section 7.3 shall not apply (i) to any Confidential Information for a period longer than it is legally permissible to restrict disclosure of that item of Confidential Information or (ii) to any Confidential Information that a party can demonstrate was:

(a) at the time of disclosure to such party, in the public domain or commonly known in either party’s industry;

(b) after disclosure to such party, published or otherwise entered the public domain through no fault of such party;

(c) in the possession of such party at the time of disclosure to it, if such party was not then under an obligation of confidentiality with respect thereto;

7.3.6. Return of Confidential Information. Unless a party is expressly authorized by this Agreement to retain the other party’s Confidential Information, such party shall promptly return or destroy, at the disclosing party’s option, the disclosing party’s Confidential Information, and all copies thereof, within five (5) Business Days of the disclosing party’s written request, and shall certify to the disclosing party that it no longer has in its possession or under its control any Confidential Information in any form whatsoever, or any copy thereof.

Vendor covenants that each of its employees and the employees of any and all Subcontractors performing Services shall be subject to the terms of an employment or other agreement that (a) requires such employee to protect Vendor’s clients’ confidential information, including Customer Data, and that offers no less degree of protection than that which is required hereunder and (b) requires such employee to grant its employer ownership of any and all Developed Work Product created or developed by such employee. Without regard to whether any individual is subject to any such agreement and without regard to its terms, Vendor shall be responsible for, and shall remain fully liable for, any action or inaction by each of its agents and Subcontractors, and each of their employees, with respect to the Confidential Information and Customer Data that results in a breach of this Section 7.3 or Section 13.4.

In the event Nextel elects to terminate any Service or transition a certain volume of Customer call traffic being serviced by Vendor (but not all Services or all call volume in the aggregate) pursuant to the terms hereof, Vendor shall perform its Disentanglement obligations hereunder to the extent applicable to the Service, Services or volume of Customer call traffic being terminated.

13. COMPLIANCE MATTERS

13.1. Nextel Corporate Policies. Vendor shall, and shall cause its Subcontractors and employees to, abide by the following:

13.1.1. Ethical Business Practices. This Agreement is subject to and governed by the Nextel Communications, Inc. Code of Corporate Conduct as such may be amended from time to time and as provided to Vendor.

13.1.2. Security. All Vendor personnel (including personnel of any Subcontractors) shall be subject to and shall at all times conform to Nextel’s security rules and requirements for the protection of Nextel’s plant, materials, equipment and personnel while on Nextel premises. Any violations or disregard of these rules shall be cause for denial of access to Nextel’s property.

13.1.3. Computer Information and Access. Vendor will comply with all rules of Nextel concerning access to Nextel’s computers and use of computer data and software, including those set forth on Schedule 13.1.3 and any others communicated by Nextel to Vendor. Prior to performing any Services pursuant to this Agreement, Vendor’s personnel shall execute Nextel’s standard forms concerning access protection and data/software security. Nextel shall issue to Vendor personnel access mechanisms including, but not limited to, access Ids, passwords, and access cards that are to be used only by the Vendor personnel to whom they are issued. Nextel’s computer data and software shall be used by Vendor personnel only in connection with Vendor’s obligations hereunder. Failure of Vendor to comply with these rules may result in Nextel restricting offending personnel from access to Nextel computer systems or immediate termination of this Agreement.

13.1.4. Other Policies. Vendor agrees that as part of its provision of Services hereunder, it shall ensure that its personnel are trained, qualified, and available to perform all Services required in work areas requiring specific health, security, or safety precautions. Vendor shall, and shall cause its Subcontractors and employees to, abide by all pertinent Nextel corporate policies that may be established by Nextel from time to time and provided to Vendor.

13.2. Legal Compliance.

13.2.1. Vendor shall at all times perform its obligations hereunder in compliance in all material respects with all applicable foreign, domestic, state, and local laws and regulations of all applicable foreign and domestic jurisdictions,

and in such a manner as not to cause Nextel to be in material violation of any applicable laws or regulations including any applicable requirements of any foreign, domestic, state, or local authority regulating health, safety, employment, the environment, security, exportation, or telecommunications.

13.2.2. Nextel is both an equal opportunity employer and a federal contractor. Therefore, Vendor shall, to the extent applicable, comply with Executive Order 11246, the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974 and the Vocational Rehabilitation Act of 1973. Such Executive Order and such laws are expressly included in the reference to “applicable laws” in the first sentence of this Section.

13.2.3. In addition, except for approvals, permissions, permits and/or licenses required by foreign or domestic statute, ordinance, regulation or other law to be obtained by Nextel or its Customers, including those required, if any, to permit Nextel to enter into this Agreement, Vendor agrees to obtain and maintain, at its own expense, all approvals, permissions, permits, licenses, and other forms of documentation required by Vendor in order to comply with all existing foreign or domestic statutes, ordinances, regulations, or other laws, which may be applicable to Vendor’s performance of Services hereunder. Nextel reserves the right to reasonably request and review all such applications, permits, and licenses prior to the commencement of any Services hereunder.

13.3. Diversity in Subcontracting.

13.3.1. Nextel is committed to equal employment and vendor diversity. As part of this commitment, it is the policy of Nextel that small business concerns, veteran-owned small business concerns, HUBZone small business concerns, women-owned small business concerns, small disadvantaged business concerns (including 8(a) business concerns) and historically black colleges and universities and minority institutions shall have the maximum practicable opportunity to participate in performance of contracting between Nextel and its vendors. Vendor agrees to carry out this policy in the award of subcontracts (to the extent permitted hereunder) to the fullest extent consistent with efficient contract performance.

13.3.2. To the extent that Vendor utilizes subcontractors to provide services under this Agreement, Vendor agrees to use its commercial best efforts to establish and conduct a program which will enable small business concerns, veteran-owned small business concerns, HUBZone small business concerns, women-owned small business concerns, historically black colleges and universities and minority institutions and small disadvantaged business concerns (including 8(a) business concerns) to be considered fairly as subcontractors and vendors under Vendor’s contracts

with Nextel. In order to establish and conduct such a program, Vendor shall use its best efforts to:

(a) Assist small business, veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, women-owned small business, historically black colleges and universities and minority institutions and small disadvantaged business concerns (including 8(a) business concerns) by arranging contracting opportunities, quantities, specifications and delivery schedules so as to facilitate the participation by such business concerns.

(b) Provide adequate and timely consideration of the potentialities of small business, veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, women-owned small business, historically black colleges and universities and minority institutions and small disadvantaged business concerns (including 8(a) business concerns) in all “make-or-buy” decisions.

(c) Designate a liaison manager who shall be responsible for interfacing with and administering subcontracting opportunities for small business, veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, women-owned small business, historically black colleges and universities and minority institutions and small disadvantaged business concerns (including 8(a) business concerns).

(d) Counsel and discuss subcontracting opportunities with representatives of small business, veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, women-owned small business, historically black colleges and universities and minority institutions and small disadvantaged business concerns (including 8(a) business concerns).

(e) Maintain records showing (i) procedures adopted by Vendor to comply with the policy and procedures set forth in this Agreement, including the establishment of a source list of small business, veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, women-owned small business, historically black colleges and universities and minority Institutions and small disadvantaged business concerns (including 8(a) business concerns); (ii) awards to small business, veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, women-owned small business, historically black colleges and universities and minority institutions and small disadvantaged business concerns (including 8(a) business concerns) on the source list; and (iii) specific efforts to identify and award contracts to small business, veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, women-owned small business, historically black colleges

and universities and minority institutions and small disadvantaged business concerns (including 8(a) business concerns).

(f) Cooperate with Nextel representatives in any studies and surveys of Vendor’s small business, veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, women-owned small business, historically black colleges and universities and minority institutions and small disadvantaged business concerns (including 8(a) business concerns) procedures and practices that Nextel may conduct periodically.

13.3.3. To the extent that Vendor uses subcontractors, Vendor will use its commercial best efforts to spend ten percent (10%) of the total value of the contract with small business, veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, women-owned, historically black colleges and universities and minority institutions and small disadvantaged business concerns (including 8(a) business concerns). Vendor shall report those goals to Nextel on an annual basis.

13.3.4. To the extent that Vendor uses subcontractors to provide services to Nextel, within thirty (30) calendar days of the Effective Date, Vendor shall provide Nextel with a strategic plan outlining their methodology regarding the use of diverse vendors. If Vendor does not subcontract, Vendor shall provide Nextel with a strategic plan outlining Vendor’s methodology for Vendor’s overall corporate supplier diversity program. The plan should include implementation of that Vendor diversity strategy. Vendor shall prepare and submit reports detailing Vendor’s actual performance of the policy and procedures of this Agreement within fifteen (15) calendar days of the end of each quarter. Such reports shall include the total amount of payments expressed in dollars made by Nextel to Vendor for products and services under this Agreement as well as the total amount expressed in dollars of subcontracts between Vendor and any small business, veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, women-owned small business, historically black colleges and universities and minority institutions and small disadvantaged business concerns (including 8(a) business concerns) during that quarter. If Vendor does not subcontract, Vendor shall provide Nextel with overall corporate supplier diversity spend numbers. Vendor shall submit such reports in a form prescribed by Nextel.

13.3.5. Vendor’s failure to comply in good faith with the policy or procedures of Section 13.3.4 of this Agreement, including Vendor’s failure to provide quarterly reports or to cooperate in any investigation conducted by Nextel of the performance of the procedures set forth in this Agreement, shall be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement by Vendor and any other contract between Nextel and Vendor.

13.3.6. The terms “small business concerns, veteran-owned small business concerns, HUBZone small business concerns, women-owned small business concerns and small disadvantaged business concerns (including 8(a) business concerns)” shall be defined according to the definitions set forth in Federal Acquisition Regulation Part 19 and 13 C.F.R. Part 121. “Historically black colleges and universities,” as used in this clause, means institutions determined by the Secretary of Education to meet the requirements of 34 C.F.R. Section 608.2. The term also means any nonprofit research institution that was an integral part of such a college or university before November 14, 1986. “Minority institutions,” as used in this clause, means institutions meeting the requirements of Section 1046(3) of the Higher Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C. §1135d-5(3)). The term also includes Hispanic-serving institutions as defined in Section 316(b)(1) of such Act (20 U.S.C. §1059c(b)(1)).

13.4. Customer Data.

13.4.1. Ownership and use of Customer Data. All Customer Data is and shall remain the exclusive property of Nextel. Vendor shall secure, access, use, collect, maintain, and disclose or share Customer Data only in strict accordance with the terms of this Agreement and only to the extent strictly necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement, or as otherwise required by law. Vendor may not otherwise modify the Customer Data, merge it with other data, commercially exploit it, disclose it or do any other thing that may in any manner adversely affect the integrity, security or confidentiality of such data, other than as expressly specified herein or as directed by Nextel in writing. Nextel makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of the Customer Data. For the purpose of this Section 13.4, the acts or omissions of Vendor’s employees, affiliates, agents, representatives, contractors, subcontractors, and their employees shall also be deemed the acts or omissions of Vendor.

13.4.2. Privacy Laws. Vendor agrees that it will at all times comply with all applicable laws that govern (1) the security, collection, access, use and disclosure of Customer Data (2) direct-marketing of any form; and (3) directory assistance (collectively, the “Privacy Laws”). These laws include without limitation the Federal Communications Commission’s Customer Proprietary Network Information rules and regulations implementing 47 U.S.C. § 222 (the “CPNI Law”); Federal Trade Commission’s Telephone Sales Rule; the Federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act (47 U.S.C. § 227) and its implementing regulations; and Section 2891.1 of the California Public Utility Commission Code.

13.4.3. Safeguards. Vendor is fully responsible for its unauthorized collection, disclosure and use of, and access to, Customer Data. Accordingly, Vendor shall employ administrative, physical, and technical safeguards that

prevent such unauthorized collection, access, disclosure, and use (“Safeguards”), including, without limitation, the Safeguards described hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, Vendor shall at a minimum (1) employ the highest standards of best industry practice to Safeguard Customer Data, whether “at rest” or in transport, (2) encrypt all Customer Data at rest or in transport, (3) ensure that only its employees and subcontractors may access Customer Data, and only: (a) to the extent necessary to enable Vendor to perform its obligations under this Agreement; and (b) if they are bound in writing by confidentiality, privacy, and security obligations that are no less stringent than those contained in this Section 13.4 of the Agreement (“Authorized Employees”). During the term of each Authorized Employee’s employment by Vendor, Vendor shall at all times ensure that such Authorized Employee strictly abides by his/her obligations hereunder. And after such Authorized Employee leaves his/her employment for any reason, Vendor shall use at least the same level of effort to enforce such obligations as Vendor uses to enforce obligations that relate to its own similarly confidential information, provided that Vendor shall not use less than reasonable efforts in such enforcement.

13.4.4. Location of Vendor Operations: Vendor shall ensure that all aspects of its Service that concern Customer Data (including without limitation collecting, storing, accessing, using, Safeguarding, transporting, and disclosing Customer Data) shall occur in the United States.

13.4.5. Disclosure of Customer Data. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except in response to a valid court order or otherwise to the extent legally required in response to a request from a law enforcement agency, in no event shall Vendor disclose any Customer Data to any third party. In the event Vendor is legally required to disclose any Customer Data pursuant a valid governmental or law enforcement request, it will promptly notify Nextel to permit Nextel to seek a protective order or to take other appropriate action to prevent or limit such disclosure. Vendor agrees to cooperate with Nextel’s efforts to obtain a protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be afforded the Customer Data in question. If, in the written opinion of its counsel addressed to Nextel, Vendor is compelled as a matter of law to disclose the Customer Data in the absence of a protective order, it shall disclose to the party compelling the disclosure only the part of the Customer Data that is required by law to be disclosed, and Vendor shall use its best efforts to obtain confidential treatment therefor. Vendor further agrees that, prior to any such disclosure, it shall advise and consult with Nextel and its counsel as to such disclosure and the nature and wording of its disclosure.

13.4.6. Customer Touch. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement and except as specifically authorized by Section 3.10 and/or

the DAS Statement of Work, Vendor shall not knowingly contact any Nextel Customer in any manner, without Nextel’s prior written consent. Vendor shall not directly target or directly market to Nextel Customers, individually or as a class, in connection with any directory assistance products or services that are competitive to the Services provided hereunder.

13.4.7. Return of Customer Data. Vendor shall return, or at Nextel’s election, destroy (and certify in writing such destruction) all Customer Data upon the termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason, or earlier if requested to do so in writing by Nextel.

13.4.8. Cooperation and Inspection. Vendor shall establish a disciplinary process to address any unauthorized access, use or disclosure of Customer Data by any of Vendor’s employees or Subcontractors. Vendor shall immediately notify Nextel of any breaches of security that may result in the unauthorized access, use or disclosure of Customer Data. Vendor shall make all reasonable efforts to assist Nextel in relation to the investigation and remedy of any such breach of security and any claim, allegation, action, suit, proceeding or litigation with respect to the unauthorized access, use or disclosure of Customer Data.

13.4.9. Injunctive Relief. Vendor acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any obligation set forth in this Section 13.4 by the Vendor may result in irreparable harm for which monetary damages may not provide a sufficient remedy and, as a result, Nextel shall be entitled to both monetary damages and equitable relief.

13.4.10. Confidentiality. The obligations set forth in this Section 13.4 supplement the provisions of Section 7, and this Section 13.4 shall govern to the extent there is any conflict between it and Section 7.

13.4.11. Miscellaneous. The obligations set forth in this Section 13.4 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason.

In the event of such a Force Majeure, the date of delivery or performance hereunder shall be extended for a period not to exceed the time lost by reason of the failure or delay; provided that the party affected by the Force Majeure is using commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate or eliminate the cause of such delay or its effects and, if events in the nature of the Force Majeure event were foreseeable, used commercially reasonable efforts prior to its occurrence to anticipate and avoid its occurrence or effect. Each party shall notify the other in writing promptly of any failure or delay in, and the effect on, its performance.

Nextel and its authorized agents and representatives will have access to inspect and copy such records for purposes of such audit during normal business hours and at place designated by Vendor; provided, however, that if such audit discloses that an error of [ . . . * * * . . . ] or more regarding invoices during the audited period was made in favor of Vendor or any Vendor Subcontractor, Vendor shall pay the entire cost of such audit, unless Vendor disputes the outcome of the audit, in which case such dispute shall be settled under Section 5.5 hereof. If such dispute is resolved in Nextel’s favor, Vendor shall remain responsible to pay for the audit as set forth in this Section. Vendor shall bind each of its relevant Subcontractors in writing, as part of the agreements between Vendor and the respective Subcontractor, to make its financial records available for audit and inspection as required by this Section 14.13. Any Vendor confidential material shall not be released to Nextel as a result of any audit.

(c) Adjusting Payment Upon Audit. To the extent that any audit as provided in this Section 14.13 discloses an overpayment or underpayment, Vendor or Nextel, as the case may be, shall promptly refund or pay to the other, as the case may be, the amount of such overpayment or underpayment.

14.13.2. Recordkeeping Requirements. Vendor shall maintain, and shall cause each of its relevant Subcontractors to maintain, complete and accurate accounting records in a form in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and complying in all respects with all applicable laws, to permit substantiation of the charges and prices of Vendor and Vendor’s Subcontractors hereunder and to permit verification of compliance by Vendor with the terms of this Agreement. Vendor shall retain, and shall cause each of Vendor’s relevant Subcontractors to retain, such records for a period of five (5) years from the date to which each such record pertains. Further, Vendor shall maintain and retain, and shall

cause each of its relevant Subcontractors to maintain and retain, complete and accurate operational records, including but not limited to all data related to the provision of the Services, and copies of all Vendor-generated reports hereunder for a period of five (5) years from the date to which each such record or report pertains.

14.13.3. Operational Audits.

(a) Operational Audit Rights. Nextel, or its authorized representatives shall have the right, at any time, upon reasonable notice of no less than ten (10) Business Days (except that no notice shall be required with respect to a security audit, including an audit of Vendor’s safeguarding of Customer Data), to perform an operational audit limited in scope to Vendor’s performance of the Services, including, but not limited to, any obligation of Vendor related to security, disaster recovery and fail-over planning. The selection of the authorized representative shall be made by Nextel, subject to Vendor’s approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. For purposes of such audit, Vendor shall grant Nextel or its representatives access appropriate to the scope of the audit at a location of Vendor’s choosing, during normal business hours and upon said reasonable notice, to the relevant portion of Vendor’s books, records, documents, data, or information, as they relate to this Agreement. Vendor shall provide Nextel, or its authorized representatives, such information and assistance as reasonably requested in advance in order to perform such audits; provided, however, that the parties shall endeavor to arrange such assistance in such a way that it does not interfere with Vendor’s ongoing business and the performance of Vendor’s duties and obligations hereunder. Any third parties performing this audit shall do so only after Vendor’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld and only after executing nondisclosure agreements reasonably satisfactory to Vendor.

(b) Results of Operational Audit. If any audit pursuant to this Section 14.13 reveals a material inadequacy or insufficiency of Vendor’s performance of the Services or any obligation of Vendor related to security, then Vendor and Nextel shall discuss such findings, including the specific audit workpapers and report, and in the event that Vendor is unable to adequately refute such findings, Vendor shall promptly develop and provide to Nextel a corrective action plan, such plan to be reasonably satisfactory to Nextel, and promptly thereafter implement such plan at Vendor’s sole cost and expense.

14.14. Severability. If any part or application of this Agreement shall be adjudged by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions or other applications shall in no way be affected or impaired thereby and shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

14.15. Third Party Rights Excluded. This Agreement is an agreement between the parties, and confers no rights upon any of the parties’ employees, agents, or contractors or upon any other person.

14.16. Waiver. No purported waiver by any party of any default by any other party of any term or provision contained herein (whether by omission, delay or otherwise) shall be deemed to be a waiver of such term or provision unless the waiver is in writing and signed by the waiving party. No such waiver shall in any event be deemed a waiver of any subsequent default under the same or any other term or provision contained herein.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be executed and delivered by their respective, duly authorized representatives.
