Dear Xx. Xxxxxx:

     As you know, pursuant to the proposed Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Airvana, Inc. (the “Company”), 72 Mobile Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Buyer”) and 72 Mobile Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Buyer (the “Transitory Subsidiary”), the Transitory Subsidiary has agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, to merge with and into the Company. Capitalized terms used in this letter agreement but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement. In consideration of the mutual covenants and conditions as hereinafter set forth, you do hereby agree as follows:

     1. Following the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement), you agree to serve in the position and on the terms described in your Summary of Employment and Equity Terms, attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Term Sheet”).

     2. Prior to the Closing, you agree to execute all documents reasonably necessary or advisable to reflect and set forth in all material respects the terms and conditions set forth in the Term Sheet and address other reasonable and customary provisions associated therewith. Without limiting the foregoing, you hereby agree and acknowledge that, in the event the parties have not entered into definitive agreements intended to supersede the Term Sheet, the Term Sheet will, effective upon the Closing, supersede any and all prior agreements (including verbal agreements) between you and the Company, the Buyer, the Transitory Subsidiary and/or any of their respective affiliates, with respect to any matters discussed therein, including, without limitation, your employment terms and severance rights and conditions following the Closing.

     If the Merger Agreement is terminated for any reason prior to the Closing, this letter agreement and the Term Sheet will automatically terminate and neither you nor the Company, the Buyer, the Transitory Subsidiary or any of their respective affiliates will have any liability or obligation under this letter agreement or the Term Sheet. In addition, if prior to the Closing you (and/or parties related to you) violate the terms of the Holdings Interim Investors Agreement or Rollover Commitment Letter to which you (and/or parties related to you) and the Buyer are parties, the Buyer shall have the right to terminate this letter agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the terms set forth in the Term Sheet or otherwise will take effect unless and until the Closing occurs.

     The terms of this letter agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware.
