Section 2.1. Purchase and Sale
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof and in reliance upon
the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, Purchaser
agrees to purchase at the Closing, and the Company agrees to sell and issue to
Purchaser at the Closing, (except as otherwise provided in Section 5.5) the
Shares, for the aggregate purchase price (the "Purchase Price") of Two Hundred
Million Dollars ($200,000,000.00), which is equal to One Thousand Dollars
($1,000.00) per Share, which shall represent, immediately after Closing, one
hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company.
Section 2.2. Dividend Rate; Conversion Price
The Company and Purchaser have agreed that the dividend rate and the
Conversion Price applicable to the Shares shall be dependent upon the average
Closing Price of the Class A Common Stock for the five (5) Trading Days

Shares shall be the dividend rate and Conversion Price corresponding to the

Dividend Rate and Applicable Conversion Price shall be properly reflected in the

adjusted in the case of the Applicable Conversion Price for stock splits and
stock dividends effected after the date hereof).

Section 5.3. Access to Spectrum
Consistent with applicable FCC requirements concerning the Company's
control of any PCS Licenses issued in the Auction to the Company or an Affiliate

provide to Purchaser access to the network to be built by the Company or its

(other than those markets Purchaser and the Company mutually agree to exclude)
(the "Operating Agreement"). Terms of the Operating Agreement will include a
minimum ten year term. Pricing for access to the network under such Operating
Agreement shall be fair and reasonable and determined given consideration to
spectrum, network construction and operating costs to be incurred by the Company
and its Affiliates. In addition, the pricing, terms and conditions will be such

in the markets covered by such Operating Agreement that is interoperable with

11
Section 5.5. Oklahoma 5

5") would create an FCC Conflict if the Shares were issued to Purchaser on the
date hereof. Purchaser shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to sell its
interest in Oklahoma 5 prior to the Closing Date or otherwise take action such
that an FCC Conflict relating to Oklahoma 5 will not arise as a result of the
purchase of the Shares on the Closing Date. In the event an FCC Conflict would
be created by the purchase of the Shares as of the Closing Date as a result of
Purchaser's ownership or interest in Oklahoma 5, then, provided all conditions
to Closing have or will be satisfied on the Closing Date (other than obtaining
any Consent pertaining to Oklahoma 5), in lieu of the Purchaser's purchase, and
the Company's issuance, of the Shares on the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall
purchase, and the Company shall issue, $200 million of a new class of the
Company's Preferred Stock ("New Preferred"). The terms of the New Preferred
shall be: (a) the shares of New Preferred shall be non-voting and shall not be
convertible by the holder into other equity securities of the Company, (b) the
shares of New Preferred shall provide for a fixed dividend rate equal to the
Applicable Dividend Rate on the Closing and shall be mandatorily redeemable by
the Company on the tenth anniversary of the date of their issuance, (c) shall,
at the Purchaser's option, be mandatorily exchangeable for Shares (with an
equivalent liquidation value as of the date of such exchange) if upon such
exchange no FCC Conflict would result, and (d) to the fullest extent possible,
consistent with FCC rules and regulations, as similar as possible to the other
principal terms of the Shares.
Section 5.6. Certain Actions

consent Seller shall not directly or indirectly undertake any of the actions
that would be prohibited without the approval of the Original Holder under
Section 6(b) of the form of Certificate of Designation set forth as Exhibit B;

Section 7.1. Survival
The representations and warranties made in this Agreement shall survive the
Closing without regard to any investigation made by any of the parties hereto
until the second anniversary of the Closing and shall thereupon expire together
with any right to indemnification in respect thereof (except to the extent a
written notice asserting a claim for breach of any such representation or
warranty and describing such claim in reasonable detail shall have been given
prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period to the party which
made such representation or warranty).
Section 7.2. Indemnification by Purchaser
Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates,
directors, shareholders, officers, employees, agents and/or the legal
representatives of any of them (each, a "Section 7.2 Indemnified Party"), from
and against any and all Losses incurred or suffered by him/her or it arising out
of or resulting from (a) any representation or warranty of Purchaser contained
in this Agreement being untrue in any material respect as of the date on which
it was made or (b) any material default by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates in
the performance of their respective obligations under this Agreement, except to
the extent (but only to the extent) any such Losses arise out of or result from
the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Section 7.2 Indemnified Party
or its Affiliates.
Section 7.3. Indemnification by Seller
Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and its Affiliates,
directors, shareholders, officers, employees, agents and/or the legal
representatives of any of them (each, a "Section 7.3 Indemnified Party"), from

was made or (b) any material default by Seller or any of its Affiliates in the
performance of their respective obligations under this Agreement, except to the
extent (but only to the extent) any such Losses arise out of or result from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Section 7.3 Indemnified Party or
its Affiliates.
Section 7.4. Procedures
(a) The terms of this Section 7.4 shall apply to any claim (a "Claim") for
indemnification under the terms of Sections 7.2 or 7.3 for Losses arising out of
or relating to matters asserted by third parties. The Section 7.2 Indemnified
Party or Section 7.3 Indemnified Party (each, an "Indemnified Party"), as the
case may be, shall give prompt written notice of such Claim to the indemnifying
party (the "Indemnifying Party") under the applicable Section, which party may
assume the defense thereof, provided that any delay or failure to so notify the
Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations
hereunder only to the extent, if at all, that it is materially prejudiced by
reason of such delay or failure. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to
approve
15
any counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and to approve the terms of any
proposed settlement, such approval not to be unreasonably delayed or withheld
(unless, in the case of approval of a proposed settlement, such settlement
provides only, as to the Indemnified Party, the payment of money damages
actually paid by the Indemnifying Party and a complete release of the
Indemnified Party in respect of the claim in question). Notwithstanding any of
the foregoing to the contrary, the provisions of this Article 7 shall not be
construed so as to provide for the indemnification of any Indemnified Party for
any liability to the extent (but only to the extent) that such indemnification
would be in violation of applicable law or that such liability may not be
waived, modified or limited under applicable law, but shall be construed so as
to effectuate the provisions of this Article 7 to the fullest extent permitted
by law.
(b) In the event that the Indemnifying Party undertakes the defense of any
Claim, the Indemnifying Party will keep the Indemnified Party advised as to all
material developments in connection with such Claim, including, but not limited
to, promptly furnishing the Indemnified Party with copies of all material
documents filed or served in connection therewith.
(c) In the event that the Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense of
any Claim within ten Business Days after receiving written notice thereof, the
Indemnified Party shall have the right, subject to the Indemnifying Party's
right to assume the defense pursuant to the provisions of this Article 7, to
undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Claim for the account of
the Indemnifying Party. Unless and until the Indemnified Party assumes the
defense of any Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall advance to the Indemnified
Party any of its reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs and expenses
incurred in connection with the defense of any such action or proceeding. Each
Indemnified Party shall agree in writing prior to any such advancement that, in
the event he or it receives any such advance, such Indemnified Party shall
reimburse the Indemnifying Party for such fees, costs and expenses to the extent
that it shall be determined that he or it was not entitled to indemnification
under this Article 7.
(d) In no event shall an Indemnifying Party be required to pay in
connection with any Claim for more than one firm of counsel (and local counsel)
for each of the following groups of Indemnified Parties: (i) Purchaser, its
Affiliates, directors, shareholders, officers, employees, agents and/or the
legal representatives of any of them; and (ii) Seller, its Affiliates,
directors, shareholders, officers, employees, agents and/or the legal
representatives of any of them.

Section 9.9. Confidentiality; Publicity
(a) Each of the Company and Purchaser, on behalf of itself and its
affiliates, agrees that it will use its reasonable best efforts to maintain the
confidentiality of all non-public information disclosed to it by the other or
obtained as a result of negotiating or entering into this Agreement and the
Transaction Documents and will not, without the prior written consent of the

receiving party on a non-confidential basis or (iii) in the reasonable opinion
of legal counsel, must be disclosed pursuant to Law or the requirements of any
national securities exchange; provided further, however, that in the case of

jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any

extent permitted by such court, and all other covenants shall not thereby be
affected and shall be given full effect, without regard to the invalid portions.
