This PURCHASE AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is entered into on December 18, 1998 by
and between Teligent, Inc., a Delaware corporation having its principal place of
business at 0000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxx, XX 00000 ("TELIGENT") and Xxxxxx Network
Systems, a Xxxxxx Electronics Company, having its principal place of business at
00000 Xxxxxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, XX 00000 ("XXXXXX").
Whereas,
XXXXXX designs, manufactures, sells, installs, maintains and otherwise supports
certain equipment, hardware, software and other goods used in, and renders
certain other services associated with, the operation of point-to-multipoint
systems; and
TELIGENT operates and holds licenses to operate such systems in a variety of
locations in the United States and may seek to obtain similar licenses in the
United States and various other countries; and
Pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein, TELIGENT desires to
purchase, and XXXXXX desires to sell, the goods and render the services as set
forth in this Agreement and in the Attachments hereto which are specifically
incorporated herein and made a part hereof by reference.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual obligations herein contained, the
Parties agree as follows:
Article 1 - Scope Of Agreement
1.1 Deliverables.
The terms and conditions established in this Agreement cover the purchase from
XXXXXX of certain goods as specified herein (which may include, but are not
limited to, equipment, components thereof and drawings, documents and manuals
associated therewith, hardware and software (collectively, the "Goods")) and
services (which may include, but are not limited to, installation, maintenance
and support of the goods purchased, engineering services and the training of
TELIGENT personnel (collectively, the "Services")) for incorporation in or use
in conjunction with TELIGENT's operations (hereinafter such Goods and Services
collectively referred to as the "Deliverables").
1.2 Funding Development of Deliverables.
The Parties acknowledge that TELIGENT has paid [redacted] to XXXXXX for the
express purpose of supporting XXXXXX' timely development of the Deliverables
(said payment referred to herein as the "Developmental Funding"). The
1
Developmental Funding shall be credited in full against XXXXXX' first invoices
to TELIGENT for Deliverables, and TELIGENT hereby acknowledges that such
Developmental Funding does not entitle TELIGENT to any intellectual property
rights not provided for herein.
Subject to the allowance of a grace period as set forth in Article 12.1(b), in
the event that XXXXXX fails to provide Generally Available Release 1.0
Deliverables on or before [redacted], and such failure is not excused by Force
Majeure pursuant to Article 14 hereof or Termination for Convenience by TELIGENT
pursuant to Article 18 hereof, XXXXXX shall immediately (and in no event later
than [redacted] or, in the event of the allowance of a grace period pursuant to
Article 12.1 (b), [redacted]) return the Developmental Funding to TELIGENT.
Anything in the foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, at TELIGENT's option
the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall continue and remain in full
force for the remainder of the Term hereof.
1.3 Extension to Affiliates and Strategic Partners.
(a) Upon the express written permission of TELIGENT, United States Affiliates of
TELIGENT are entitled to purchase Deliverables at the prices provided in this
Agreement and under the same terms and conditions, so long as such Affiliates
maintain the same creditworthiness as TELIGENT, as determined in XXXXXX'
reasonable discretion. If an entity qualifies as both an Affiliate of TELIGENT
and as a Strategic Partner, it shall be accorded the status of Affiliate for the
purpose of purchases under, and the other terms and conditions of, this
Agreement.
(b) Upon the express written permission of TELIGENT, non-United States
Affiliates and all Strategic Partners of TELIGENT are entitled to purchase
Deliverables at the prices provided in this Agreement and upon reasonably
similar terms and conditions, provided that: (1) such entities are not resellers
-------------
of XXXXXX Deliverables; (2) TELIGENT does not make a profit through marked-up
resale from such sales; and (3) such entities have and maintain equal or greater
creditworthiness to that of TELIGENT, in XXXXXX' reasonable discretion.
(c) TELIGENT, on behalf of its Affiliates and Strategic Partners, understands
and agrees further that: (i) Services pricing is not included in such
Deliverables; and (ii) XXXXXX may reasonably adjust, as a direct and reasonable
result of costs actually incurred by XXXXXX, the prices of Deliverables sold to
Affiliates and Strategic Partners that are non-United States-based or sold to
TELIGENT, an Affiliate or Strategic Partner for use outside of the United States
for (A) country risks (e.g., currency, political, judicial), if reasonably
applicable; (B) product adaptations (e.g., frequency bands, channelization,
signaling requirements, country homologation and regulatory constraints), if
applicable; (C) existing Most Favored Customer clauses with other non-United
2
States-based XXXXXX customers; and (D) other exceptional costs beyond those
incurred by XXXXXX in selling Deliverables to TELIGENT in the U.S. Adjustments
made by XXXXXX pursuant to this Article 1.3(c) shall conform to the requirements
of Article 3.6.
(d) All equipment purchased by Affiliates and Strategic Partners shall be
credited to TELIGENT for the purpose of calculating TELIGENT's Actual Volume of
purchases, as defined in Article 3.
(e) XXXXXX may, but shall not be obligated to, finance the purchases of
TELIGENT, any Affiliate, or Strategic Partner.
(f) All Deliverables purchased by TELIGENT pursuant to this Agreement may be
transferred by TELIGENT, either by sale, lease, assignment, or otherwise, to any
of its subsidiaries or Affiliates; provided, however, that, in the event of such
transfer, TELIGENT agrees to remain bound by and subject to the terms of this
Agreement, and provided further that if such sale, lease or assignment is to a
non-U.S. based entity or if the Deliverables are sold, leased or assigned for
deployment outside of the U.S., XXXXXX reserves the right to make reasonable
adjustments, as a direct and reasonable result of costs actually incurred by
XXXXXX, to the prices of the applicable Deliverables for applicable
corresponding cost increases.
1.4 Defined Terms.
Capitalized terms shall have the meaning set forth (in order of precedence, in
the case of any inconsistency):
(i) in the context of this document, including definitions in parentheses,
(ii)in Exhibit A, Definitions, or
(iii) as commonly understood within the telecommunications industry.

Parties may mutually agree.
Article 3 - Prices for Deliverables
3.1 Unit Price and Purchase Price.
Attachment 1 sets forth the Unit Prices at which XXXXXX makes the listed
Deliverables available to TELIGENT. The actual purchase prices paid by TELIGENT
shall be the Unit Prices as such prices may be adjusted pursuant to Article 3.3
below.
3.2 Firm Unit Prices Over Term.
The Unit Prices stated in Attachment 1 are the firm Unit Prices XXXXXX will
charge TELIGENT for the Deliverables during the term of this Agreement, provided
that there are no material changes to the terms and conditions hereof. The Unit
Prices shall be adjusted as provided for in this Article 3.
3.3 Purchase Price Adjustments to Unit Prices.
(a) The following schedule of adjustments will apply to the Unit Prices, based
upon TELIGENT's projected purchase volume over the Term (the "Purchase
Commitment"). This Unit Price Adjustment Schedule will apply to all purchases of
4
hardware and software Deliverables ("Covered Purchases"), beginning with the
first purchase by TELIGENT, but shall not apply to the purchase of Services.

(b) TELIGENT's Purchase Commitment is Two Hundred and Fifty-Five Million Dollars
($255,000,000). TELIGENT shall provide XXXXXX with a pro forma forecast for the
term of this Agreement at the time of execution of this Agreement. The Parties
accordingly agree that, subject to Article 3.3(c) below, all purchase prices for
Covered Purchases shall therefore reflect a [redacted] percent [redacted]
discount from the Unit Prices set forth in Attachment 1.
(c) The Parties will meet within [redacted] days of the end of the [redacted]
year after the execution of this Agreement to determine whether or not
TELIGENT's Purchase Commitment should be re-stated based upon actual purchases
made and orders placed by the end of such [redacted] year, and, if so, whether a
different adjustment to the Unit Prices according to the schedule above should
be made on a going-forward basis for the remainder of the Term.
3.4 "Shortfall Payment" and "True-Up" at End of Term.
(a) If TELIGENT's actual purchase volume of Deliverables, including (i) any
unused credits due to TELIGENT and (ii) any adjustments pursuant to Article 3.5
below (the "Actual Volume") at the end of the Term is less than [redacted],
TELIGENT shall pay to XXXXXX [redacted], said payment hereinafter being referred
to as the "Shortfall Payment," no later than thirty (30) days after the end of
the Term.
5
(b) In addition to the Shortfall Payment, if TELIGENT's Actual Volume is less
than the Purchase Commitment at the end of the Term, TELIGENT will make a
"True-Up" Payment to XXXXXX in an amount equal to the difference between the
actual price of purchased Deliverables and the price of such Deliverables
re-computed using the lesser discount applicable to the Actual Volume as shown
in the schedule above, no later than thirty (30) days after the end of the Term.
For example:
Purchase Commitment: $255,000,000
Actual Volume At End of Year 5: [redacted]
True-Up Payment: TELIGENT owes XXXXXX the difference between the price
of Deliverables Purchased with [redacted] Premium (based on [redacted]
Actual Volume) less the price of Deliverables Purchased with [redacted]
Discount ($255,000,000 Actual Volume).
In order to obtain the True-Up Payment, XXXXXX would multiply the
Actual Volume purchased [redacted] multiplied by [redacted], or
[redacted], and subtract the [redacted] paid to date.
The True-Up Payment would equal [redacted].
(c) If, as a result of Section 3.3 the unit prices are adjusted following the
end of the third year of this Agreement, and TELIGENT's Actual Volume exceeds
the restated Purchase Commitment at the end of the Term to an extent which would
have entitled TELIGENT to a greater discount over the Term, XXXXXX will make a
payment to TELIGENT equivalent to [redacted] (including any unused credits due
TELIGENT) [redacted] re-computed using the formula set forth in Section 3.3
hereof.
(d) The "True-Up" Payment and/or the Shortfall Payment, if applicable, shall be
XXXXXX' exclusive remedy in the event that TELIGENT's Actual Volume falls short
of the Purchase Commitment.
(e) Anything in the foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that
the Actual Volume is less than (i) [redacted] or (ii) the amount of the Purchase
Commitment at the end of the Term, in either case due to either (A) Force
Majeure pursuant to Article 14 hereof, or (B) Termination for Cause by TELIGENT
pursuant to Article 17.1 hereof, TELIGENT shall have no liability to XXXXXX for,
and shall not be obligated to pay, the Shortfall Payment or the "True-Up"
Payment, respectively.
3.5 [redacted].

3.6 Most Favored Customer.
After Acceptance of the First Market Deliverables hereunder, sales of all
Deliverables ordered hereunder (including the First Market Deliverables if
Accepted) will be on terms at least as favorable as those offered to any XXXXXX
customer for the same or substantially similar equipment, software and services
(based on similar terms and conditions taken as a whole). Verification of this
commitment shall be subject to confidential audit at TELIGENT's expense by an
independent accounting firm of TELIGENT's choice, subject to XXXXXX' approval,
such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conducted no more frequently than
once in any 12- month period.
If TELIGENT becomes aware through such audit procedure or by other verifiable
means that the pricing of Deliverables does not give TELIGENT Most Favored
Customer ("MFC") protection, XXXXXX will lower its Unit Prices to TELIGENT for
Deliverables ordered thereafter as necessary to provide TELIGENT MFC protection
and rebate to TELIGENT [redacted] of the difference between the MFC-protected
price and the price TELIGENT actually paid, in addition to reimbursing TELIGENT
for all costs associated with the audit or investigation which uncovered such
price discrepancy.
If, on its own initiative and prior to receiving any notice of audit, XXXXXX
notifies TELIGENT that TELIGENT is entitled to reduced prices for
previously-procured Deliverables under this Article prior to or in the absence
of the conduct of an audit, TELIGENT shall receive [redacted] in past prices
paid. In the event that XXXXXX is required to provide a rebate to TELIGENT as a
result of an audit requested by TELIGENT as set forth in this section, TELIGENT
shall receive from XXXXXX an amount equal to [redacted] paid by TELIGENT to
auditors in order to retain such auditors.
3.7 Other Goods and Services.
Goods and Services not listed or otherwise described in this Agreement or the
Attachments hereto also may become Deliverables under this Agreement. Such Goods
or Services shall become Deliverables upon the issuance by TELIGENT of one or
more Purchase Orders therefor, and the acceptance by XXXXXX thereof. For Goods
and Services that are not listed in the Attachments hereto or presently
contemplated by the Parties hereunder but which become Deliverables under this
Agreement, the prices listed in the Purchase Order(s) accepted by XXXXXX for
those goods or services shall constitute the contract price, adjusted, as
applicable, in accordance with this Agreement. The provisions of Article 3.6
shall apply thereto.
3.8 Freight and Other Charges and Fees.
7
XXXXXX' quoted prices are exclusive of all applicable freight charges or other
fees, taxes and duties. TELIGENT shall be responsible to pay all such reasonable
charges, fees, taxes and duties which are actually incurred by XXXXXX in the
performance of its obligations under this Agreement. XXXXXX agrees that such
charges, fees, taxes and duties shall not be subject to xxxx-up, and that
TELIGENT shall not be responsible for paying any additional handling or
miscellaneous charges and/or any withholding taxes or income taxes of XXXXXX.
Article 4 - Ordering, Forecasting, Delivery, Re-Scheduling, and Changes
4.1 Purchase Orders.
(a) A Good or Service listed or described in this Agreement or in the
Attachments hereto becomes a Deliverable under this Agreement only upon the
issuance by TELIGENT of a Purchase Order for the Good or Service. TELIGENT may
issue one or more Purchase Orders for such goods or services, in such quantities
and at such times as it, in its sole discretion, may elect, subject to the
provisions of this Article 4. Purchase Orders shall include quantities to be
purchased by line item (as set forth in Attachment 6), and shall also include
the requested date of delivery.
Purchase orders may be issued by facsimile or U.S. or express delivery, or, upon
mutual agreement of the Parties, via electronic data interchange. XXXXXX shall
accept or reject a Purchase Order in writing within five (5) business days after
issuance by TELIGENT. In the event that XXXXXX does not so accept or reject,
TELIGENT shall have the right to escalate the Purchase Order from the Program
Manager to a Vice President or the General Manager of the Wireless Networks
Division of XXXXXX. If XXXXXX does not respond to the Purchase Order within
fifteen (15) days, the Purchase Order shall be deemed to be rejected.
(b) Purchase Orders shall conform to the Sample Purchase Order shown in
Attachment 6 hereto. All data sheets, drawings, specifications, conditions or
other documents attached to or included by reference in a Purchase Order are
integral parts thereof, as are the terms of this Agreement. In the event that
the terms of the Purchase Order and this Agreement conflict, the terms of this
Agreement shall govern.
4.2 Forecasting and Scheduling of Orders.
No later than six (6) months after the execution of this Agreement, TELIGENT
will provide a rolling forecast of its equipment purchases covering the first
four quarters of delivery under the Agreement. The rolling forecast will be
updated quarterly. For the first quarter of deliveries, the forecast delivered
six (6) months before the commencement of such quarter shall be binding. Each
8
succeeding forecast shall provide a forecast for the 12-month period beginning 3
months after the delivery of such forecast.
The first quarter and thirty-three percent (33%) of the second quarter of every
such four-quarter forecast shall represent a non-reducible binding purchase
commitment, subject to TELIGENT's rescheduling rights described under Article
4.4. If ordered, XXXXXX will be obligated to deliver up to one hundred twenty
percent (120%) of forecasted units in the first two quarters of any rolling
forecast. Items in excess of one hundred twenty percent (120%) shall be
delivered to a mutually agreed schedule.
4.3 Standard Delivery Intervals.
Deliverables will be delivered no later than the following time periods,
beginning on the date of submission of a Purchase Order, and will be based on
the quantities forecasted pursuant to Article 4.2.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
|Teligent Nodes (TNs) | [redacted] |
|-----------------------------------|---------------------------------|
|Teligent Access Sites (TASs) | [redacted] |
|-----------------------------------|---------------------------------|
|Other Deliverables |Individual Case Basis, as |
| |mutually agreed on by the Parties|
----------------------------------------------------------------------
These delivery intervals shall apply to all Purchase Orders, including any
Deliverables ordered before the First Market Deliverables have been Accepted,
but shall not require the delivery of product to a Market other than the First
Market before the delivery of First Market Deliverables.
4.4 TELIGENT's Right to Re-Schedule.
In the event that TELIGENT is unable to make its "room ready" dates upon the
schedule agreed pursuant to a Purchase Order, the scheduled delivery may be
postponed for up to thirty (30) days on a day-for-day basis to reflect the
actual room ready date. Beginning with the thirty-first (31st) day after the
agreed upon date, if TELIGENT is still unable to accept delivery, XXXXXX shall
invoice, and TELIGENT shall pay, (1) the portion of the purchase price for such
rescheduled Deliverables that would be payable upon delivery and (2) documented
reasonable out-of-pocket daily storage charges for such rescheduled Deliverables
to XXXXXX. XXXXXX shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver
Deliverables by the rescheduled delivery date.
4.5 TELIGENT's Right to Change Work.
TELIGENT shall have full power at any time during the execution of XXXXXX' work
under this Agreement to request XXXXXX, by written purchase order, to make
9
changes in, additions to or deduction from, the general scope of the
engineering, furnishing, delivery, installation and testing of Deliverables
(hereinafter referred to as "Work") ordered by TELIGENT.
Upon receipt of such written request for change, XXXXXX shall submit a report
within ten (10) business days after the receipt of the change request setting
forth the effect, if any, on prices or timing of delivery or other performance
obligations. Within a reasonable time thereafter, TELIGENT and XXXXXX will agree
to one of the following:
(a) to proceed with the change as requested;
(b) to agree to proceed with a mutually agreed upon, modified change
request; or
(c) to cancel the requested change and proceed with the Agreement as
originally executed.
XXXXXX shall not proceed with any change unless authorized in writing by
TELIGENT.
The XXXXXX report, as modified, if necessary, by mutual agreement of the
Parties, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Agreement.

Article 9 - Delivery and Acceptance
9.1 Responsibility For Incorrect Delivery.
If any item is incorrectly delivered, the Party responsible for the incorrect
delivery (which shall include the Party's agent) shall bear (a) any additional
direct expenses incurred in delivering it to the correct point of delivery and
(b) the risk of transportation.
9.2 Date Available.
The delivery time as stated in each Purchase Order is the time when the
Deliverables must be available at the point indicated. The Deliverables must be
completely manufactured, tested, packed, and marked, and must be accompanied by
all necessary documentation. Where the Purchase Order calls for installation by
XXXXXX, the date of delivery shall be taken to mean the date by when the
Deliverables must have passed all requisite Acceptance Testing, and if
applicable, entered the relevant Soak Period.
9.3 Conveyance of Title.
Title and risk of loss shall pass to TELIGENT upon delivery to the Purchase
Order designated location or such other location TELIGENT may specify (FCA such
location), unless the Parties agree otherwise in an accepted Purchase Order.
Upon the conveyance of title to equipment and other goods, XXXXXX shall convey
to TELIGENT all rights and title therein by appropriate documents with warranty
of title, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances. Title to software shall
not be conveyed to TELIGENT at any time, unless otherwise specifically agreed by

the shipping of such Deliverables, and TELIGENT shall have no liability to
XXXXXX for any such costs.
9.4 Acceptance Test Procedures.
(a) TELIGENT's acceptance of and payment for the First Market Deliverables or
Extension Deliverables, as the case may be, shall be subject to the Acceptance
Test Procedures, as described in Attachment 5 hereto, and as set forth below.
[redacted]
(b) Acceptance Testing for First Market Deliverables. The First Market
Deliverables shall be Accepted according to Acceptance Test Procedures. The
Acceptance tests shall be administered by XXXXXX and observed by TELIGENT, and
test results shall be provided to TELIGENT. The punch list created following the
Acceptance Test Procedures shall not contain any Major Items. As part of the
Acceptance Test Procedures for the First Market Deliverables, TELIGENT may
subject such Deliverables to a sixty-day First Market Soak Period, which period
may include commercial service to TELIGENT customers. Any payment milestone for
the First Market Deliverables or any Extension Deliverables set forth in Article
10 which occur prior to the successful passage of the First Market Soak Period
shall be extended automatically up to and including the date of successful
passage of the First Market Soak Period.
(c) Acceptance Testing for Extension Deliverables. If XXXXXX provides
installation services, XXXXXX shall Commission Extension Deliverables to ensure
that the Deliverables are operational according to Specifications and have been
installed correctly. Commissioning of any Extension Deliverables shall include a
subset of critical Acceptance Test Procedures, to be mutually agreed upon by the
Parties. The punch list created following Commissioning of any Extension
Deliverables shall not contain any Major Items. As part of the Acceptance Test
Procedures for any Extension Deliverables, TELIGENT may subject such Extension
Deliverables to a thirty-day Extension Deliverables Soak Period, which period
may include commercial service to TELIGENT customers, without making payment to
XXXXXX for the applicable payment milestone as set forth in Article 10.
The applicable payment milestone shall be the conclusion of the Soak Period,
rather than the date of the Commissioning of the Extension Deliverables, should
TELIGENT choose to conduct a Soak Period. If TELIGENT or a third party installs
the Deliverables, TELIGENT shall have thirty (30) days after delivery to inspect
and accept or reject the Deliverables before installing, Commissioning, and
placing the Extension Deliverables into the Extension Deliverables Soak Period.
If TELIGENT rejects any portion or all of such Extension Deliverables, the
invoice date for the Delivery milestone shall become the date such Deliverables
are repaired and/or replaced in a manner satisfactory to TELIGENT and no late
fees or interest shall accrue until [redacted] after such date. XXXXXX shall
23
have fair opportunity to inspect TELIGENT or third-party installations to ensure
that the Extension Deliverables have been installed correctly.
(d) The occurrence of a Major Outage during a Soak Period shall "re-start" the
applicable Soak Period (once the fault has been corrected). TELIGENT shall not
be required to pay for any on-site support services XXXXXX elects to provide in
connection with a Soak Period.
(e) The Parties agree that the Acceptance Test Procedures set forth in
Attachment 5 hereto shall contain mutually agreed-upon time frames in which (i)
TELIGENT shall Accept or reject Deliverables after delivery to TELIGENT pursuant
to this Agreement and (ii) XXXXXX shall repair and/or replace such Deliverables
after any such rejection by TELIGENT, subject to the further provisions of this
Section 9.4(e).
TELIGENT may conditionally Accept any Deliverables which do not have one or more
of the Critical Features set forth in Attachment 2 and pay to XXXXXX [redacted],
pursuant to Section 3.5 hereof. For any other deviations from the Specifications
other than those listed on Attachment 2 hereto, TELIGENT shall be entitled to
[redacted] until such time as XXXXXX has repaired and/or replaced such
Deliverables.
9.5 Partial Deliveries.
XXXXXX shall not be entitled to claim payment for partial deliveries where the
effect of the partial delivery is to prevent TELIGENT from making beneficial use
of the facilities in question. If TELIGENT Accepts and makes beneficial use of
the facilities in question, then XXXXXX shall be entitled to payment for those
goods or services delivered and Accepted or performed. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, XXXXXX may invoice for partial deliveries when such partial delivery
is made at TELIGENT's express written request.

verification period (as defined by industry standards) before payment is due.
Article 11 - Interfaces
11.1 Industry Standard Interfaces.
Deliverables shall interface with third-party network equipment through
standard industry interfaces, including TR-303, between the TAS and the TCO or
between two points mutually agreed upon by the Parties. The Parties will
mutually determine in good faith the requirements of the TR-303 and other
interfaces and required solution(s). Pricing from XXXXXX to TELIGENT for such
solution(s) shall be determined at that time, and shall be governed by the
following principles:
(i) If an effective solution requiring reasonably minor
development effort by XXXXXX is provided by a third party's
product, XXXXXX will pass through the cost of it to TELIGENT
without additional charges.
(ii)If XXXXXX must undertake substantial development efforts to
create a solution, such efforts shall be priced at
commercially reasonable rates.
11.2 General Integration Support for Non-Standard Interfaces.
XXXXXX acknowledges that other infrastructure manufacturers supply competitive
and complementary equipment, software and services to TELIGENT. XXXXXX
understands that its equipment and components must work with such third-party
network equipment. The Parties agree to mutually determine a budget under which
26
XXXXXX will work to accomplish such integration with third party deliverables if
TELIGENT requires integration with non-industry-standard interfaces.
11.3 POTS Capability.
XXXXXX will propose a mutually-satisfactory POTS capability solution for Release
1 and shall incorporate POTS in its Release 2 product. The Parties will mutually
agree upon any other required interface specifications which the Deliverables
shall support.
11.4 Interconnection With Third-Party Equipment.
XXXXXX agrees and understands that TELIGENT intends to install certain
third-party equipment and connect same to the Deliverables through standardized
interfaces. TELIGENT agrees that it shall make every commercially reasonably
effort to prevent any physical interference with the Deliverables during such
installation and connection of third party equipment, and further agrees that
XXXXXX will not be liable in any way to the extent delay in Acceptance of any
Deliverables is due to such physical interference. If such third-party equipment
is installed prior to Acceptance of XXXXXX Deliverables, the Acceptance Test
Procedure shall verify the proper function of the relevant standardized
interface in accordance with the interface specifications agreed upon. If the

29
(a) XXXXXX agrees to indemnify and hold Teligent harmless from, and to resist or

United States patent or copyright, and to pay any royalties and other costs
related to the settlement of such request and to pay any and all costs and
damages, including attorney's fees and settlement costs, finally awarded or
agreed upon as a result of any litigation based on such claim, provided that:
XXXXXX is given prompt written notice of such request or claim by TELIGENT and
given authority and such reasonable assistance and information as XXXXXX
requests in writing and as it is available to TELIGENT for resisting such

with TELIGENT's designs, specifications, or instructions, as contrasted with
XXXXXX' design or manufacturing choices or recommendations, not directed by
TELIGENT, implementing or interpreting such designs, specifications or
instructions, (ii) that use of any item provided by XXXXXX in combination with
products not supplied by XXXXXX, or (iii) that a manufacturing or other process
carried out by or through TELIGENT (not at XXXXXX' instruction) and utilizing
any item provided by XXXXXX constitutes infringement of any United States patent
(such claims being collectively referred to herein as "Other Claims").
TELIGENT will indemnify and hold XXXXXX harmless from, and will resist or defend
at its own expense, any request for royalty payments or any claim for equitable
30
relief or damages against XXXXXX and to pay any and all damages and costs
(including settlement costs) finally awarded or agreed upon for infringement of
any United States patent or copyright in any suit resulting from Other Claims,
and from reasonable and actual expenses incurred by XXXXXX in defense of such
suit if TELIGENT does not undertake the defense thereof.
(d) This indemnity is subject to [redacted] TELIGENT hereunder attributable to

PRICES FOR MULTIPLEXING AT THE [redacted]
Xxxxxx Network Systems is in the process of doing a high level design
for a low cost solution to provide multiplexing and redundancy at the
Teligent - Xxxxxx Equipment Purchase Agreement - Attachment 1
[redacted] for both [redacted] and [redacted] modes. For the nominal
size [redacted] (4 sectors, 1:1 redundant ) HNS guarantees the
following Not to Exceed pricing for the multiplexing function:
-------------
1. [redacted], 4 Sector, 1:1 redundancy, 1 [redacted] Output: [redacted]
2. [redacted], 4 Sector, 1:1 redundancy, 1 [redacted] Output: [redacted]
(Note: HNS, at its discretion, may apportion the costs to other parts
within the [redacted] but the total price of this nominal configuration
will not exceed the total price based on the current pricing structure)
This solution will be available starting [redacted]. If the [redacted]
solution is not available at [redacted] between [redacted] and
[redacted], TELIGENT shall be entitled to dollar for dollar equipment
credits, to be used for prospective purchases, for all [redacted]
multiplexors purchased in that 90-day period in the amount of
[redacted].
In the interim period HNS offers the following options for the multiplexing:
[redacted] Multiplexor:
The [redacted] will be used to multiplex [redacted] from the Hub [redacted] and
connect to the network via one or more [redacted] ports. In the configuration
quoted below, the [redacted] will meet the Teligent requirement of not having a
single point of failure in the traffic path both on the input and output ports
(except as noted on Feature 4 on Attachment 2).
Pricing for the [redacted], per the configuration below:
[redacted]
This configuration will be able to support a 4-sector Hub with each sector
having redundant radios [redacted], and provide a concentration of 4:1, with 4
[redacted] inputs mapped to one (1) [redacted] output with 1:1 redundancy
supported on all modules.
o 12-slot [redacted] shelf with -48V dc supply, fan unit, and
maintenance interface card with a 1:1 backup redundant power
supply and maintenance interface card.
o Four (4) [redacted] interface modules to interface to the Hub
[redacted], configured with a 1:1 redundancy
o One (1) [redacted] output port with a 1:1 redundancy.
[redacted] Multiplexor:
Two options are offered. XXXXXX reserves the right to request and obtain mutual
agreement for the selection of a third option not specified below, so long as
such option offers substantially similar functionality and no increase in price
to TELIGENT. If the Parties do select an option other than one of the options
listed below, XXXXXX will include all support costs of network management in the
selected option with no increase in price. Only one option will be selected.
Option 1: HNS [redacted]
Teligent - Xxxxxx Equipment Purchase Agreement - Attachment 1
The first option using [redacted] switch meets Teligent requirement of not
introducing a single point of failure in the traffic path.
[redacted] is a high availability carrier class switch. In addition to
providing the required concentration across sectors and the required redundancy
function this switch can be used by Teligent to build a distributed backbone
connecting a number of [redacted] within a Metropolitan Area or across an entire
market ( Wide Area Network ). This backbone can also be a very cost effective
outer tier of a two tier backbone architecture.
This ATM switch will be used to multiplex [redacted] from the Hub [redacted] and
connect to the network via one or more [redacted] or [redacted] ports. It is
also used to provide redundancy for the Hub [redacted]. This mux offers a fully
redundant package that has no single point of failure; it offers multi-level of
protection both for common equipment including switch fabric and for I/O paths.
Additionally, it supports both 1:1 and 1:n redundancy for the HTs. Some example
cases and pricing for them are given below. These examples are chosen to
represent Teligent nominal scenarios. In the [redacted] common equipment there
is 1:1 redundancy for power box (supply and feed), 1:1 redundancy for Switch
Control Module, 1:n redundancy for the switch fabric as well for the fans in the
fan tray. I/O details are as given below:
(i) [redacted] sectors, 1:1 redundant solution [redacted]
(total[redact
ed] ports
supporting
four 1:1
feeds to
[redacted]
and total of
[redacted]
ports
supporting two
1:1 feeds
from Network)
(ii) [redacted] sectors, 1:1 redundant solution [redacted]
(total [redacted] ports supporting eight 1:1 feeds to
[redacted] and total of [redacted] ports supporting two
1:1 feeds from Network)
(iii) [redacted] sectors, 2:1 redundant solution [redacted]
(total [redacted] ports supporting four 2:1 feeds to
[redacted] and total of [redacted] ports supporting two
1:1 feeds from Network)
(iv) [redacted] sectors, 3:1 redundant solution [redacted]
(total [redacted] ports supporting four 3:1 feeds to
[redacted] and total of [redacted] ports supporting two
1:1 feeds from Network.
This solution requires [redacted] option, addition of 2nd common
equipment)
Teligent - Xxxxxx Equipment Purchase Agreement - Attachment 1
Option 2: [redacted] Switch
The second option using [redacted] switch does not meet Teligent requirement of
not introducing a single point of failure in the traffic path as the switch
fabric used in it is non-redundant. An [redacted] multiplexor will be used to
multiplex [redacted] from the Hub [redacted] and connect to the network via one
or more [redacted] or [redacted] ports. This mux will support four sectors 1:1,
four sectors 1:2, four sectors 1:3 and eight sectors 1:1 redundancy schemes. It
has total [redacted] input ports (thus providing 1:1 redundancy for [redacted]
connections) and total of [redacted] (or [redacted]) output ports which can be
configured for 1:1 or up to 1:3 redundancy. This mux has a single point of
failure in the switch fabric and thus does not meet Teligent's requirement of no
single point of failure in the traffic path at the [redacted].
(i) [redacted] sectors, 1:1 redundant solution [redacted]
(total [redacted] ports supporting four or eight 1:1
feeds to [redacted] and total of [redacted] ports
supporting two 1:1 feeds from Network)
(ii) [redacted] sectors, 2:1 redundant solution [redacted]
(total [redacted] ports supporting four 2:1 feeds to
[redacted] and total of [redacted] ports supporting two
1:1 feeds from Network)
(iii) [redacted] sectors, 3:1 redundant solution [redacted]
(total [redacted] ports supporting four 3:1 feeds to
[redacted] and total of [redacted] ports supporting two
1:1 feeds from Network.

51. PROBLEM RESOLUTION
As potential Problems are identified by TELIGENT, TELIGENT will be asked for an
initial classification using the above definitions (i.e., Critical, Major and
Minor). The TAC will provide a Response to TELIGENT based upon such
classification and will create a trouble log entry and commence fault isolation
and Problem determination procedure.
52. Critical Problem
If a Problem is a Critical Problem, HNS will use reasonable best efforts to
restore full System functionality via a software patch, by providing an
operational workaround, by changing a database, by suggesting that Equipment
Teligent - Xxxxxx Equipment Purchase Agreement -Attachment 3
components be replaced, or by some other method. HNS personnel, with TELIGENT
permission, may attempt to dial in to the System to identify the cause of the
Critical Problem. Should the Critical Problem continue and HNS cannot simulate
or recreate or otherwise identify the cause of the Problem at HNS' facility, HNS
will dispatch a qualified maintenance engineer to travel to TELIGENT's site. The
designated HNS maintenance engineer shall remain on-site and dedicated to
TELIGENT until such time as the Critical Problem is either resolved or
downgraded to a Major Problem. HNS' TAC will continue telephone assistance, as
required, during the duration of Problem resolution.
If the Critical Problem resolution shows that the Problem which resulted in
on-site support was not caused by Equipment or Software provided by HNS, or if
HNS demonstrates that TELIGENT has not maintained the Equipment in accordance
with the Documentation, or TELIGENT has not reasonably followed the System
Support Services administrative and technical procedures provided by HNS, then
TELIGENT will pay HNS for the site visit at HNS standard rates and any related
out of pocket expenses.
53. Major Problem
If a Problem is a Major Problem, HNS will attempt to restore full System
functionality via a software patch, by changing a database, by suggesting that
Equipment components be replaced, or by some other method. HNS personnel, with
TELIGENT permission, may attempt to dial in to the System to identify the cause
of the Major Problem. Should a software patch, if required and requested, not be
provided within [redacted] of Response and HNS cannot simulate or recreate or
otherwise identify the cause of the Problem at HNS' facility, HNS will dispatch,
at TELIGENT's request, a qualified maintenance engineer to travel to TELIGENT's
site. The designated HNS maintenance engineer shall remain on-site and dedicated
to TELIGENT until such time as the Major Problem is either resolved or
downgraded to a Minor Problem. HNS' TAC will continue telephone assistance, as
required, during the duration of Problem resolution.
If the Major Problem resolution shows that the Problem which resulted in on-site
support was not caused by Equipment or Software provided by HNS, or if HNS
demonstrates that TELIGENT has not maintained the Equipment in accordance with
the Documentation, or TELIGENT has not reasonably followed the System Support
Services administrative and technical procedures provided by HNS, then TELIGENT
will pay HNS for the site visit in accordance with HNS standard rates and any
related out of pocket expenses.
54. Minor Problem Resolution
For Minor Problems, HNS will provide a Response to TELIGENT within [redacted].
The fix for the Minor Problem, if software related, will be provided either as a
patch or permanent fix in a software maintenance release, version update or
major release on a mutually agreed to schedule.
