WHEREAS, Motorola and Nextel have now agreed upon the general terms of a “funding model” that they expect to form the basis of the funding model contained in an infrastructure supply supplement to the Master Sales Agreement to be negotiated (the “New Agreement”); and
WHEREAS, Motorola and Nextel wish to make certain amendments to and extend the term of the Existing Agreement and the Handset Term Sheet in order to make certain changes thereto effective as of the Effective Date and to allow sufficient time to negotiate and execute the New Agreement (which will also include as a handset supplement the 2003-05 Agreement as that term is defined in Section 1 of the Handset Term Sheet); and

“This Term Sheet will remain in effect until December 31, 2004 or until the parties execute the New Agreement (including the 2003-05 Agreement as a handset supplement) whichever occurs first.” | ||||
The Parties amend Section 5 (Confidentiality) of the Handset Term Sheet by deleting the first paragraph and replacing it with the following, “Confidential Information” shall mean the terms, conditions, and pricing of this Term Sheet and the content of any documents or information, which is identified in writing as being confidential and which is acquired from the other party in connection with this Term Sheet, the negotiations between the Parties regarding the multi-year supply agreement that are contemplated by this Term Sheet, including information related to potential subscriber related business activities between the Parties (“Potential Business”).

Incremental WiDEN And Footprint RF Build Out
To enhance the 800/900 MHz build out accelerators programs previously offered, Motorola proposes a special program to offset incremental BR’s required for WiDEN control channels and to expand Nextel’s RF footprint to continue improving it’s competitive position. Key aspects of the program are:
• | The forecasted [*] 800MHz BR’s forecasted for 2004 above the WiDEN contract commitment will be discounted by an additional amount equal to [*] 800 MHz quad BR’s [*] |
- | [*] | |||
- | Based upon current Nextel forecast |
• | Up to [*] 800 MHz sites (1 iSC3 rack w/redundant controller and 1 quad base radio) to be used for footprint expansion shall be discounted [*] |
• | Footprint expansion site shipments shall be limited to [*] in 2004 and [*] in 2005 |

CONFIDENTIALITY
1. Motorola and Company are each a disclosing party (“Discloser”) and a receiving party (“Recipient”) under this Agreement.
2. Confidential Information means information that is:
(a) | disclosed between the Parties related to their business interests in oral, written, graphic, machine recognizable, and/or sample form, being clearly designated, labeled or marked as confidential or its equivalent; | |||
(b) | obtained by examination, testing or analysis of any infrastructure hardware, software or any component part thereof provided by Discloser to Recipient; or | |||
(c) | obtained by Motorola as a result of access to Nextel’s network operations to the extent the information relates to Nextel customer behavior, usage patterns and other call model data. |
3. [*]
4. The Parties acknowledge that whether information disclosed between the Parties falls under the definition of Confidential Information is not dispositive with respect to inventorship, authorship or patent, copyright or trademark ownership rights.
5. The requirement in Section 3 notwithstanding, neither Party will intentionally disclose to third parties Confidential Information that was disclosed orally that the Recipient knew or should have known, because of the circumstances of disclosure or the nature of the information itself, to be proprietary and confidential to the Discloser.
6. The Recipient will only use the Discloser’s Confidential Information to further the purposes of the Existing Agreement and will protect Confidential Information from disclosure to third parties, including government agencies, using the same degree of care used to protect its own confidential or proprietary information of like importance, but in any case using no less than a reasonable degree of care. Subject to the conditions in 6(d), Recipient may disclose Confidential Information to the following, provided they are bound to protect the received Confidential Information from unauthorized use and disclosure under a separate agreement with terms substantially similar to those set forth in this Agreement:
(a) its wholly-owned subsidiaries;
(b) Nextel Partners, Inc., NII Holdings, Inc., and Extend America, Inc., except to the extent that Confidential Information includes Motorola pricing information; and
(c) its agents, employees and contractors, and its affiliates’ agents, employees and contractors.
(d) Confidential Information will be shared only on a strict need to know basis and will not be disclosed to any third party without the prior written consent of the Discloser.
7. Confidential Information does not include information that:
9
*CONFIDENTIAL PORTIONS OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO AN APPLICATION FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT PURSUANT TO RULE 24b-2 UNDER THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED.
(a) was publicly known to a third party at the time of Discloser’s communication of the information to Recipient; or
(b) becomes publicly known to a third party through no fault of Recipient subsequent to the time of Discloser’s communication of the information to Recipient; or
(c) was lawfully in Recipient’s possession free of any obligation of confidence or breach of any confidentiality agreement at the time of Discloser’s communication of the information to Recipient; or
(d) is developed by Recipient independently of and without reference to any of Discloser’s Confidential Information or other information that Discloser disclosed in confidence to any third party; or
(e) is rightfully obtained by Recipient from a third party authorized to make such disclosure without restriction or breach of a confidentiality agreement; or
(f) is identified by Discloser as no longer proprietary or confidential.
8. In the event Recipient is required by law, regulation or court order to disclose any of Discloser’s Confidential Information, Recipient will promptly notify Discloser in writing prior to making any such disclosure in order to facilitate Discloser seeking a protective order or other appropriate remedy from the proper authority. Recipient agrees to cooperate with Discloser in seeking such order or other remedy. Recipient further agrees that if Discloser is not successful in precluding the requesting legal body from requiring the disclosure of the Confidential Information, it will furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information that is legally required to be disclosed and will exercise all reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information.
9. All Confidential Information disclosed under this Agreement (including information in computer software or held in electronic storage media) shall be and remain the property of Discloser. All such Confidential Information in tangible form shall be returned to Discloser promptly upon written request or the termination or expiration of this Agreement. Recipient shall either return or destroy all Confidential Information in its or its affiliates possession and Recipient, its affiliates, or any agents, employees or contractors of Recipient or its affiliates shall not retain in any form the Confidential Information after termination or expiration of this Agreement. Upon destruction by Recipient of any Confidential Information pursuant to this Agreement, Recipient shall promptly provide to Discloser a written certification, signed by an authorized executive (director level or above) of Recipient, confirming the destruction of such Confidential Information. However, Recipient may retain one archival copy of the Confidential Information which it may use only in case of a dispute concerning this Agreement.
10. Except upon mutual written agreement, or as may be required by law, no Party shall in any way or form disclose the Confidential Information or terms of this Agreement, the discussions that gave rise to this Agreement, or the fact that there have been, or may be, discussions or negotiations covered by this Agreement. In the event a Party reasonably determines that the confidentiality protections afforded to it under this Agreement are inadequate, it shall notify the other Party in writing and specify the basis for the determination. Upon receipt of the notice, both Parties shall meet and confer in a good faith effort to mutually resolve the identified inadequacies of the existing confidentiality protections and, if necessary, impose additional protective measures.
11. The Parties acknowledge that Confidential Information is unique and valuable, and that disclosure in breach of this Agreement may result in irreparable injury to Discloser for which monetary damages alone would not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, the Parties agree that in the event of a breach or threatened breach of confidentiality, the Discloser shall be entitled to seek an order for specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach or anticipated breach. Any such relief shall be in addition to and not in lieu of any appropriate relief in the way of monetary damages.
