In addition, following the expiration of such 360 day period (or following the expiration of such subsequent 90 day period, as applicable), any Net Cash Proceeds not applied as set forth above shall, if required under Section 4.08 of the TISP Note Purchase Agreement, be used by TISP to make a TISP Notes Excess Proceeds Offer.

The offer price as to the Notes and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness will be payable in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes and (solely in the case of Pari Passu Indebtedness) no greater than 100% of the principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) of such Pari Passu Indebtedness, plus in each case accrued and unpaid interest (and, solely in the case of Pari Passu Indebtedness, premiums and penalties), if any, to the date of purchase."
(iii) Section 4.08 of the Indenture is further amended by adding the following language as a new penultimate paragraph of such Section:
"If the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary consummates a NuevaTel Transaction, any Net Cash Proceeds of such transaction (less any amounts the Company uses to make, or reserves to make in the future, an interest payment solely in respect of the first Interest Payment Date (if any) occurring after consummation of the first such NuevaTel Transaction (whether such Interest Payment Date occurs before or after any NuevaTel Transaction Redemption Date (as defined below)) shall, unless otherwise agreed by Holders of at least 75% in aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, be used by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary to redeem the Notes in accordance with Article Three hereof (at the applicable redemption price) promptly after receipt of all or any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds (including any such proceeds received from time to time upon conversion into cash of any non-cash consideration received in respect of such transaction) (each such date, a "NuevaTel Transaction Redemption Date"). The Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be permitted to use the Net Cash Proceeds from any NuevaTel Transaction to make any Restricted Payments."
(d) Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates.
(i) Section 4.09(b) of the Indenture is amended by adding the following as a new clause (11) (and the word "and" is deleted at the end of the current clause (9) and the "." at the end of current clause (10) is replaced with "; and"):
"Any transactions in connection with the issuance of up to $10,000,000 of TISP Notes to SG Enterprises II, LLC."
(e) Limitation on Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries.
(i) Section 4.12(b) of the Indenture is amended by adding the following as a new clause (14) (and the word "or" is deleted at the end of the current clause (12) and the "." at the end of current clause (13) is replaced with "; or"):
"encumbrances or restrictions contained in the TISP Note Purchase Agreement or any other documentation entered into in connection with, or otherwise related to, the TISP Notes Issuance."
(f) Events of Default.
(i) Section 6.01 of the Indenture is amended by adding the following as a new clause (10) (and the word "or" is deleted at the end of the current clause (8) and the "." at the end of current clause (9) is replaced with "; or"):
"(a) the failure to pay interest on any TISP Notes when the same becomes due and payable and the default continues for a period of 30 days, (b) the failure to pay the principal on any TISP Notes when such principal becomes due and payable, at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise, (c) a default in the observance or performance of any other covenant or agreement of the Company, TISPH or TISP contained in the TISP Note Purchase Agreement which default continues for a period of 60 days after the Company, TISPH or TISP (as applicable) receives written notice specifying the default (and demanding that such default be remedied) from the holders of at least 25% of the outstanding principal amount of the TISP Notes, or (d) the failure to pay the Consent Fee to Consenting Noteholders substantially concurrently with the issuance of the TISP Notes."
