SPRINT TRADEMARK
Section 3.1 Use of Sprint Trademark. In order to assist in the orderly
transition of control of the IDDD Business from Seller to RSL and in the
collection by RSL of accounts receivable in existence on the date hereof as well
as the accounts receivable created after the date hereof with respect to the
conduct of the IDDD Business by Sellers prior to the date hereof, which shall be
collected by RSL for Sellers under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Sprint
LP hereby grants RSL the limited right to use the Sprint trademark on invoices
sent to existing
3
customers of the IDDD Business under their existing contracts until December 31,
1996, provided that if RSL prepares invoices using a billing system other than
the one used by Sellers as of the date hereof, Sprint LP shall have the right to
approve the use of the Sprint trademark in connection with the new billing
system, such approval not be unreasonably withheld. All such invoices shall be
identical in all material respects to either the existing form of invoice or the
form of invoice attached hereto as Exhibit B. Such form of invoice shall be
amended to provide that payments by customers shall be made to a bank account of
RSL by no later than June 30, 1996. Sprint LP also hereby grants RSL the limited
right to use the Sprint trademark in a letter; to be sent after the date hereof.
Sprint LP shall have the right to approve the form of such letter; provided that
(i) Sprint LP shall not unreasonably withhold its approval and (ii) Sprint LP
shall be deemed to have given its approval in the event that Sprint LP does not
respond to RSL within three (3) business days of the submission by RSL of the
form of such letter to Sprint LP. RSL shall, in addition to complying with the
terms and conditions set forth herein, adhere to Sprint LP's policies and
procedures relating to the use and duplication of the Sprint trademark, as may
be reasonably promulgated from time to time by Sprint LP. In addition, so long
as RSL is using the Sprint trademark as contemplated hereby, RSL shall notify
Sprint LP within three (3) business days of any complaints actually known by it
to have been made by any of the existing customers of the IDDD Business under
their existing contracts. If, in Sprint LP's reasonable determination, Sprint LP
believes that such complaints may impair or otherwise put at risk the goodwill
associated with the Sprint trademark as to the complaining customer or as to the
customers of the IDDD Business generally, Sprint LP shall have the right to
demand that RSL immediately terminate its use of the Sprint trademark as to such
complaining customer or all of the customers of the IDDD Business, as the case
may be. RSL shall not take any action which could reasonably be expected to
compromise the Sprint trademark. The Sprint trademark is proprietary and nothing
herein constitutes a general license authorizing its use. RSL may not: (a)
promote or advertise Sprint's name or capabilities to customers of the IDDD
Business or prospective customers of the IDDD Business; (b) attempt to sell its
service using Sprint's name; or (c) represent to customers of the IDDD Business
or prospective customers of the IDDD Business that they would be Sprint
customers or that they may obtain Sprint service from RSL, except as expressly
provided herein or in other authorized agreements. RSL shall not use, and shall
return to Sprint LP promptly after the date hereof, materials relating to the
IDDD Business which bear the Sprint trademark, including any unused stationery,
other than the invoices and cover letters specifically approved for RSL's use in
this Section 3.1.

evidencing such costs and Sprint LP's payment thereof.

Agreement, and RSL shall pay to Sprint LP, amounts equal to any Taxes, however
designated or levied, based upon such charges, the Services or this Agreement,
and any amounts in lieu thereof paid or payable by Sprint LP in respect of the
foregoing, which Sprint LP and its affiliates or Global One Communications
customarily charge customers in connection with the provision of the type of
services contemplated by Section 2.1 and shall not include any income taxes
payable by Sprint LP and other Taxes for which RSL would not be liable if such
Taxes were not paid or withheld by Sprint LP. The Parties shall cooperate with
each other in minimizing any applicable Taxes and, in connection therewith,
shall provide the other Party with any information reasonably requested by such
Party in connection with any such Taxes.

amount due hereunder, RSL shall pay when due the undisputed portion of such
amount, if any, and, if the dispute is resolved in Sprint LP's favor, promptly
pay the disputed portion (or applicable part thereof) when the dispute is
resolved without the applicable late payment charge, if such dispute arises in
good faith.
Section 4.8 Currency. All payments hereunder shall be made in U.S.
Dollars.
Section 4.9 Invoices. Sprint LP shall provide RSL written invoices
covering all charges payable by RSL hereunder, which invoices shall describe in

CONFIDENTIALITY
Section 5.1 Confidentiality. Except as otherwise provided herein,
Sprint LP and RSL each agree that all information communicated to it by the

been independently developed by the recipient Party outside the scope of this
Agreement without reference to Confidential Information received hereunder, or
(iii) been rightfully obtained by the recipient Party from third parties which
are not obligated to protect its confidentiality. The provisions of this Section

reason.

Section 8.3. Indemnification Procedure.
(a) Promptly after receipt by an RSL Indemnified Party or a Sprint LP
Indemnified Party (hereinafter collectively referred to as an "Indemnified
Party") of notice by a third party of any complaint or the commencement of any
action or proceeding with respect to which indemnification is being or may be
sought hereunder, such Indemnified Party shall notify RSL or Sprint LP,
whichever is the appropriate indemnifying Party hereunder (the "Indemnifying
Party"), of such complaint or of the commencement of such action or proceeding;
provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall
not relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability for such claim arising
otherwise than under this Agreement and such failure to so notify the
Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability which the
Indemnifying Party may have hereunder with respect to such claim if, but only
if, and only to the extent that, such failure to notify the Indemnifying Party
results in the forfeiture by the Indemnifying Party of rights and defenses
otherwise available to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim. The
Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice to the Indemnified
Party, to assume the defense of such action or proceeding, including the
employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the
payment of the reasonable fees and disbursements of such counsel. In the event,
however, that the Indemnifying Party declines or fails to assume the defense of
the action or proceeding or to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Indemnified Party, in either case in a timely manner, then such Indemnified
Party may employ counsel to represent or defend it in any such action or
proceeding and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the reasonable fees and
disbursements of such counsel as incurred; provided, however, that the
Indemnifying Party shall not be required to pay the fees and disbursements of
more than one counsel for all Indemnified Parties in any jurisdiction in any
single action or proceeding. In any action or proceeding with respect to which
indemnification is being sought hereunder, the Indemnified Party or the
Indemnifying Party, whichever is not assuming the defense of such action, shall
have the right to participate in such litigation and to retain its own counsel
at such Party's own expense. The Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as
the case may be, shall at all times use reasonable efforts to keep the
Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, reasonably
apprised of the status of the defense of any action the defense of which they
are maintaining and to cooperate in good faith with each other with respect to
the defense of any such action.
9
(b) No Indemnified Party may settle or compromise any claim or consent
to the entry of any judgment with respect to which indemnification is being
sought hereunder without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party,
unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release
of the Indemnifying Party from all liability arising out of such claim. An
Indemnifying Party may not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified
Party, settle or compromise any claim or consent to the entry of any judgment
with respect to which indemnification is being sought hereunder unless such
settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of the
Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim and does not
contain any equitable order, judgment or term which in any manner affects,
restrains or interferes with the business of the Indemnified Party or any of the
Indemnified Party's respective affiliates.
(c) In the event an Indemnified Party shall claim a right to payment
pursuant to this Agreement, such Indemnified Party shall send written notice of
such claim to the appropriate Indemnifying Party. Such notice shall specify the
basis for such claim. As promptly as possible after the Indemnified Party has
given such notice, such Indemnified Party and the appropriate Indemnifying Party
shall establish the merits and amount of such claim (by mutual agreement,
litigation, arbitration or otherwise) and, within five (5) business days of the
final determination of the merits and amount of such claim, the Indemnifying
Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party immediately available funds in an
amount equal to such claim as determined hereunder.
[CONFIDENTIAL PORTIONS OMITTED WHERE INDICATED]
Section 8.4. Claims Period. Except as provided in this Section 8.4, no
claim for indemnification under this Agreement may be asserted by an Indemnified
Party after the expiration of the appropriate claims period (the "Claims
Period") which shall commence on the date hereof and shall terminate two (2)
years after the date hereof. No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to make any
claim for indemnification hereunder after the appropriate Claims Period;
provided, however, that if prior to the close of business on the last day of the
Claims Period, an Indemnifying Party shall have been properly notified of a
claim for indemnity hereunder and such claim shall not have been finally
resolved or disposed of at such date, the basis of such claim shall continue to
survive with respect to such claim and shall remain a basis for indemnity
hereunder with respect to such claim until such claim is finally resolved or
disposed of in accordance with the terms hereof.
Section 8.5. Maximum Liability. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, the maximum aggregate liability of Sprint LP for RSL
Losses and of RSL for Sprint LP Losses shall not exceed the following amounts

For purposes of this Agreement, the "Credited Amount" shall be equal to
the aggregate Service Charges which were paid or payable by RSL to Sprint LP in
respect of the Services hereunder during the period during which Sprint LP
failed to provide the Services as required hereunder, which amount shall be
credited by Sprint LP against future Service Charges payable by RSL to Sprint LP
hereunder commencing with the invoice for the billing period following such
breach and continuing until the Credited Amount has been credited by Sprint LP
in full against the Service Charges or reimbursed to RSL in accordance with
customary practice.

prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such
12
provision will be deemed restated to reflect the original intention of the
Parties as nearly as possible in accordance with applicable law, and, if capable
of substantial performance, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be
enforced as if this Agreement was entered into without the invalid provision.
Section 9.4 Attorneys' Fees. In the event attorneys' fees or other
out-of-pocket costs are incurred to secure performance of any of the obligations
herein provided for, or to establish damages for the breach thereof, or to
obtain any other appropriate relief, whether by way of prosecution or defense,
the prevailing Party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys' fees and
out-of-pocket costs incurred therein.
Section 9.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts all of which taken together will constitute one and the same
instrument.
Section 9.6 Relationship of Parties. Sprint LP, in furnishing the
Services to RSL hereunder, is acting only as an independent contractor. Nothing
set forth in this Agreement shall be construed to create the relationship of
principal and agent between Sprint LP and RSL. Sprint LP shall have no
authority, express or implied, to enter into contracts on behalf of RSL. Neither
Party shall act or attempt to act to represent itself, directly or by
implication, as an agent of another Party or in any manner assume or create, or
attempt to assume or create, an obligation of or in the name of, the other
Party.
Section 9.7 Approvals and Similar Actions. Where agreement, approval,
acceptance, consent or similar action by either Party hereto is required by any
provision of this Agreement, such action shall not be unreasonably delayed or
withheld.
Section 9.8 Modification: Waiver. This Agreement may be modified only
by a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of each Party hereto. No
delay or omission by either Party hereto to exercise any right or power
hereunder shall impair such right or power or be construed to be a waiver
thereof. A waiver by either of the Parties hereto of any of the obligations to
be performed by the other or any breach thereof shall not be construed to be a
waiver of any succeeding breach thereof or of any other obligation herein
contained.
Section 9.9 Remedies. Each Party agrees that the remedies provided in
Articles VI and VIII shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedies of a Party
against another Party for monetary damages arising from any breach of any
covenant, agreement or undertaking of such other Party in this Agreement.
Nothing in this Section 9.9 shall prevent a Party hereto from seeking and
obtaining equitable relief, including, but not limited to, injunctive relief
and specific performance in respect of any such breach.
Section 9.10 No Third Party Beneficiaries. The Parties agree that this
Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties hereto and is not intended to
confer any rights or benefits on any third party, including any employee of
either Party hereto, and that there are no third party beneficiaries to this
Agreement or any part or specific provision of this Agreement.

Section 9.11 Governing Law; Integration; Amendment.
(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and
enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York
without reference to New York's choice of law rules. This Agreement
supersedes all negotiations, agreements and understandings among the
Parties or any of their affiliates and constitutes the entire agreement
among the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof;
provided, however, that nothing herein shall affect any other written
agreements or understandings entered into by the Parties or any of
their affiliates contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of
this Agreement, all of which shall remain in full force and effect.
(b) This Agreement may be amended by the Parties hereto at any
time. Without limiting the foregoing, this Agreement may not be
amended, modified or supplemented except by written agreement executed
by each of the Parties hereto.
Section 9.12 Force Majeure. If either Party to this Agreement shall be
prevented, hindered or delayed in the performance or observance of any of its
obligations hereunder by reason by any circumstances beyond its reasonable
control, and such delay could not have been prevented by reasonable precautions
and cannot reasonably be circumvented by the Party through the use of alternate
sources, work-around plans or other means (a "Force Majeure"), then such Party
shall be excused from any other further performance or observance of the
obligations so affected for so long as such circumstances prevail and such Party
continues to use its best efforts to recommence performance or observance
whenever and to whatever extent possible without delay. Any Party so delayed in
its performance shall immediately notify the other and shall describe at a
reasonable level of detail the circumstances causing such delay. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, should a Party be unable to perform any of its obligations
hereunder for a period of more than seven (7) consecutive days by reason of a
Force Majeure, the other Party, at its option, shall have the right to terminate
this Agreement in whole or solely with respect to the section hereof under which
the non-performing Party has been unable to perform its obligations, in which
case the provision so terminated shall have no further force or effect and this
Agreement shall remain in effect as to all other provisions.
14
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Agreement to be executed
by their respective officers.
