WHEREAS, CARRIER desires to accept AGENT's above described application and
to act upon it in the manner and to the extent hereinafter provided; and
WHEREAS, both CARRIER and AGENT recognize the compatible nature of their

-1-
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recital and the mutual
covenants hereinafter set forth and other good and valuable consideration, it is
agreed between CARRIER and AGENT as follows:
1. CARRIER hereby appoints AGENT as CARRIER's non-exclusive Distribution
Agent to promote CARRIER's radio communication services within the territory
described in Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof. AGENT agrees not
to act as CARRIER's Distribution Agent, or to promote or make any sales of
CARRIER's services, outside of said territory. Nor will AGENT make sales to
customers within the territory of services to be provided outside of the
territory without CARRIER's consent.
2. AGENT agrees to pay all costs incurred by CARRIER in procuring,
developing and maintaining any and all hardware and software, needed to allow
CARRIER's paging terminal equipment to accomplish the activation and deletion of
paging numbers provided to AGENT, and related billing and record keeping
functions.
3. AGENT acknowledges and agrees that neither CARRIER nor any
representative of CARRIER has made any representation, warranty, or guarantee
that AGENT will or may derive income under this Agreement, it being distinctly
understood that AGENT has entered into this Agreement solely on the basis of
AGENT's independent evaluation of the merits and prospects of this transaction
and not on the basic of any representations of any type by or on behalf of
CARRIER. It is further acknowledged that this Agreement is not made in order to
enable AGENT to start a business.
4. AGENT may at its own expense, market, promote and advertise the radio
communication services of CARRIER in an attempt to increase the public's
awareness of the range of communication services available for its use. All such
material shall include the words "Signal transmission and interconnection
provided by Statellink Paging Inc., and affiliate of CUE Paging Corporation".
Any Statellink or CUE Nationwide promotional or advertising material shall be
first approved by CARRIER, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
AGENT acknowledges and understands that CARRIER will not be providing AGENT with
a sales or marketing program or with any significant sales or marketing
assistance hereunder and that CARRIER is relying on AGENT's ability to promote
and sell CARRIER'S services effectively.
5. AGENT shall be empowered to contact, solicit, contract with, and
accept on behalf of CARRIER, in accordance with the terms hereof, subscribers to
CARRIER's radio communication services from among all classes of potential users
of such service.
-2-
6. All radio communication service provided to subscribers, secured by
AGENT, shall be provided by CARRIER pursuant to CARRIER's Private Carrier Paging
Status and as outlined in this Agreement. CARRIER's obligations and
responsibilities shall be limited solely to those stipulated by and arising from
CARRIER's Private Carrier Paging Status and as outlined in this Agreement. AGENT
realizes the eligibility requirements on the users of private radio systems.
Eligibility is not open to federal or local government units, or to private
individuals. Private carriers are required to maintain a current list of paging
customers and the basis of their eligibility.
7. Should CARRIER apply for and be granted a Certificate of Public
Convenience and Necessity from any State Public Utility Regulatory Commission
("PUC") allowing CARRIER to become a Radio Common Carrier ("RCC"), all radio
communication services provided to subscribers, including those secured by
AGENT, shall be provided by CARRIER pursuant to CARRIER's duly filed tariff.
CARRIER's obligations and responsibilities shall be limited solely to those
stipulated in and arising out of CARRIER's duly filed tariff.
8. Insofar as CARRIER's radio communication services are concerned, AGENT
shall function as a conduit or agent passing through, to the CARRIER, potential
subscribers who will be in privity of contract with CARRIER by virtue of their
inclusion into the class of users covered by CARRIER's PCP or RCC status. AGENT
will at all times give prompt, courteous and efficient service to the public,
will be governed in all dealings with members of the public by the highest
standards of honesty, integrity and fair dealings, and will do nothing which
would tend to discredit, dishonor, reflect adversely upon or in any manner
injure the reputation of CARRIER or any other agent of CARRIER.
9. In addition to AGENT's function as a conduit or AGENT for CARRIER,
AGENT shall have the option to sell or lease directly to CARRIER's potential
subscribers such communication equipment, maintenance service, associated
services and facilities as are compatible with the service offered by CARRIER,
after establishing such compatibility of AGENT's equipment. CARRIER shall
endeavor to maintain during the term of this Agreement such compatibility so
long as the state of the art permits and replacement parts are readily available
for CARRIER's equipment. Agent will be given reasonable advance notice of any
proposed major changes to CARRIER's system.
10. Any equipment sale or lease of equipment and such associated services
and facilities which the subscriber chooses to purchase or lease directly from
AGENT shall be provided separate and apart from the system usage and dispatch
offering of CARRIER and CARRIER shall have no responsibility or liability with
respect thereto.
-3-
11. AGENT shall maintain a sufficient inventory of spare units, batteries,
and associated equipment to insure that the subscriber may anticipate reasonably
expeditious repairs and relatively uninterrupted service. In addition, in event
that AGENT assumes responsibility for the maintenance and repair of equipment
sold or leased by AGENT, then AGENT must maintain the integrity and quality of
service to the public by insuring that all maintenance and repair is performed
in compliance with FCC standards and requirements and those, if any, established
by PUC and that all units are operationally compatible with CARRIER'S system.
12. AGENT customer contracts will be divided into two classes: Class A
customer contracts shall be considered those customer contracts where AGENT has
purchased the equipment under contract and rented, leased, or sold said
equipment to the customer contracts where AGENT has rented the service,
equipment and airtime, from CARRIER and contracted with the subscriber for such
service. AGENT will receive all payments from subscribers and be responsible for
all billing, collection, and bad debt recovery. Further, AGENT agrees to
maintain at all times, and to furnish CARRIER not later than the Tenth (10th)
day of each month, a current list of all subscribers it places on CARRIER'S
systems, identifying each subscribers name, business, address and telephone
number. CARRIER shall not be obligated to provide service to any subscriber
whose name, business, address and telephone number is not so provided. AGENT
agrees to deliver promptly to CARRIER, upon CARRIER's request, any and all
records necessary for CARRIER to audit AGENT's billable subscribers. CARRIER
will not, during the term of this Agreement or any extension thereof, knowingly
solicit any subscriber placed on the system by AGENT. AGENT will not, during the
term of this Agreement or any extension thereof, knowingly solicit any
subscriber placed on the system by CARRIER.
13. AGENT will remit to CARRIER the total amount of monies due hereunder
for each monthly period in accordance with the formula established in Exhibit B
attached hereto and made a part hereof. Said monies shall be paid by the AGENT
to CARRIER by the Tenth (10th) day of each month, whether such money has been
collected by AGENT or not.
14. CARRIER may, subject to all required regulatory approvals, change,
delete or modify any rate, charge, category or classification contained in
Exhibit B should CARRIER in its sole discretion deem such amendment appropriate.
CARRIER will give AGENT written notice for Nationwide no later than thirty (30)
days and for local, statewide and regional no later than sixty (60) days prior
to the effective date of any such amendment and all radio communication service
provided to subscribers secured by AGENT shall conform with the terms of such
amendment.
-4-
15. It is understood that the ultimate control and responsibility for the
standard and quality of service required under the provisions of any license
issued by the FCC to CARRIER as well as any Certificate of Public Convenience
and Necessity issued to CARRIER by any state PUC shall be retained, rest and
remain the prerogative and obligation solely of the CARRIER. No provision of
this Agreement shall be construed as vesting in the AGENT any control whatsoever
of the radio communication facilities and operations of the CARRIER. CARRIER
shall make every reasonable effort to provide continuous, uninterrupted and
errorless service to subscriber but its liability for failure to do so shall be
limited and in no event shall exceed one month's dispatch fees.
16. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, it is understood that
the CARRIER will maintain day-to-day control, operation, and supervision of all
station facilities in the provision of CARRIER's service. To that end, AGENT
shall promptly, upon the day of receipt, report to CARRIER any complaints
received from subscribers relating to the service provided by CARRIER.
17. AGENT's subscriber contracts and invoices shall include the words,
"Signal transmission and interconnection services provided by Satellink Paging
Inc." The contract shall also state that the service is licensed by the FCC and
authorized by the PUC (if applicable) and is provided in compliance with the
rules and regulations of such agency(ies).
18. In order to insure the compatible initiation of service to subscribers
obtained directly by employees of CARRIER and those subscribers placed on
CARRIER's service through the efforts of AGENT, CARRIER shall coordinate the
assignment of all related code numbers, phone numbers, identification numbers,
etc. AGENT shall be liable for payment of related charges for all numbers for
a minimum of thirty (30) days. Thereafter, AGENT shall give CARRIER a thirty
(30) day deactivation notice prior to CARRIER deactivating a nationwide code
number and a twenty-four (24) hour notice prior to CARRIER deactivating a code
number for any service other than nationwide.
19. (a) An AGENT'S application for, or AGENT's receipt of, through
application or acquisition, a license or grant for authority, from either the
FCC or the PUC, to provide, in CARRIER's Market Area, similar services to those
provided by CARRIER shall be deemed a competitive act, inconsistent with the
intent of this Agreement and may cause this Agreement to be canceled immediately
at the sole discretion of CARRIER.
-5-
(b) Should AGENT apply with CARRIER to distribute CARRIER's services
in territories within CARRIER's Market Area other than described in Exhibit A
and, at which time, CARRIER is not able to supply said services, AGENT may
contract with another service provider within said territory to supply those
services. Otherwise, during the term of this Agreement and any extension thereof
AGENT shall not become a radio common carrier, private carrier or enter a
similar Agreement with another radio common carrier or private carrier, or enter
into any Agreement to market or in any way service another radio common carrier
or private carrier's service in CARRIER's Market Area. Upon termination of this
Agreement for any reason except for the provisions under Sub-paragraph 25 (c),

termination, it will not become a radio common carrier, private carrier, or
enter into a similar Agreement with another radio common carrier or private
carrier, or enter into any Agreement to market or in any way service another
radio common carrier or private carrier service in CARRIER's Market Area, and
will not directly or indirectly solicit for communications service of the type
provided under this Agreement subscribers within the Market Area covered by this
Agreement.
20. AGENT shall not make any representations or warranties either
expressed or implied in regard to any services provided by CARRIER except as
provided herein. AGENT shall refer subscriber complaints to CARRIER in the event
of any questions concerning rules, regulations, conditions of service.
21. CARRIER reserves the right to promote and sell the same equipment,
products and supporting services as the AGENT to customers directly or through
its regularly employed sales force (including independent contractors) and
CARRIER shall not be liable to AGENT for a commission or damages in lieu thereof
on any such sale or lease by CARRIER.
22. (a) CARRIER reserves the right, but not the obligation, to appoint
other agents in a similar capacity within the territory described in Exhibit A.
(b) CARRIER reserves the right to appoint agents in a similar
capacity within CARRIER's Market Area other than the territory described in
Exhibit A. AGENT is eligible to apply to become an agent in areas where CARRIER
elects to appoint agents on a non-exclusive basis within CARRIER's Market Area.
23. AGENT's subscribers shall be prohibited from resale of CARRIER's
services. AGENT is prohibited from enlisting "Sub-Agents" to act on AGENT's or
CARRIER behalf.
-6-
24 It is agreed that AGENT's relationship to CARRIER is that of
independent contractor and that no other relationship is intended or created
between the parties hereto. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed so as
to make AGENT an employee of CARRIER. Except as specifically provided in this
Agreement CARRIER shall not have the right to control AGENT'S method of
operation, the business organization of AGENT, its promotional activities,
management, marketing plan or business affairs.
25. (a) This Agreement shall become effective upon the date set forth

service to AGENT as provided to CARRIER and under the same terms as set forth in
CARRIER's Affiliation Agreement with CUE Paging Corporation.
