(q) Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. The Issuer is not an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

In the case of deposit accounts, when Account Control Agreements are
-7-
entered into, the Indenture and each Security Document shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Issuer in such Collateral and the proceeds thereof, as security for the Secured Obligations (in the case of the Issuer), in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person.
(u) No Solicitation. No form of general solicitation or general advertising was used by the Issuer or its representatives in connection with the offer and sale of the Notes.

(v) Registration Exemption. The offer and sale of the Notes to the Purchasers in the manner contemplated by this Agreement will be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and it is not necessary to qualify an indenture in respect of the Notes.

(c) No Violation. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Purchaser and compliance with the terms and provisions hereof will not result in a breach or violation of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a default under or conflict with, (i) any statute, rule, regulation or order of any governmental agency or body or any court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over such Purchaser or any of its properties, (ii) any agreement or instrument to which such Purchaser is a party or by which such Purchaser is bound or to which any of the properties of such Purchaser is subject, or (iii) the organizational documents of such Purchaser.

All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the purchase or transfer by any Purchaser of any Note or portion thereof or interest therein and the payment of any Note, and may be relied upon by any subsequent Holder of a Note, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of such Purchaser or any other Holder of a Note.

The Issuer will not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, settle, compromise, consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any Proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Person is a party thereto) unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination (i) includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such Proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability, or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person.

Re | Unwired Planet, Inc. Notes |
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This letter (the “Investor Letter”) is delivered by the undersigned (the “Purchaser”) pursuant to that certain Note Purchase Agreement dated as of June 28, 2013 (as in effect, the “Note Purchase Agreement”), between Unwired Planet, Inc., as Issuer, and the Purchasers. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement. The Purchaser represents to and agrees with the Issuer as follows:
(a) The Purchaser is authorized to enter into the Note Purchase Agreement and to perform its obligations thereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby.
(b) The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Notes, is experienced in investing in the capital markets and is able to bear the economic risk of such investment. The Purchaser is aware that investment in the Notes involves a high degree of risk, and the Notes are, therefore, a speculative investment.
(c) The Purchaser has been afforded the opportunity to ask such questions as it deems necessary to make an investment decision, and has received all information it has requested and deemed necessary in connection with making such investment decision. The Purchaser has, independently and without reliance upon any other Purchaser, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate and adequate for such purpose, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition, prospects and creditworthiness of the Issuer, and made its own decision to purchase its interest in the Notes (including, without limitation, having considered the income tax consequences of purchasing, owning or disposing of the Notes in light of the Purchaser’s particular situation and tax residence as well as any consequences arising under the laws of any taxing jurisdiction), and will, independently and without reliance upon any other Purchaser, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under the Note Purchase Agreement, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Issuer.
(d) The Purchaser is an “accredited investor”, as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7), promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or is a “qualified institutional buyer” (within the meaning of Rule 144A thereunder) and is acquiring the Notes (or an interest in the Notes) for its own account for investment purposes. The Purchaser understands that the offering and sale of the Notes (or any interest in therein) has not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act and has not and will not be registered or qualified under any applicable “Blue Sky” law, and that the offering and sale of the Notes (or any interests therein) have not been reviewed by, passed on or submitted to any federal or state agency or commission, securities exchange or other regulatory body.
(d) The Purchaser is not an employee benefit plan subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), or section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (each such plan, an “Employee Plan”), an entity whose underlying assets include the assets of any Employee Plan, or a governmental plan that is subject to any federal, state or local law which is substantially similar to the provisions of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or the Purchaser’s purchase, holding and disposition of the Notes does not result in a prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (or, in the case of a governmental plan, any substantially similar federal, state or local law) for which an exemption is not available.
(e) The Purchaser is acquiring an interest in the Notes without a view to any distribution, resale or other transfer except as contemplated in the following sentence. The Purchaser will not resell or otherwise transfer the Notes, or any interest or participation in the Notes, except in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws. The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that the Issuer has not made or will be making any representation as to the availability of Rule 144A, Regulation S or Rule 144 under the Securities Act for the reoffer, resale, pledge or transfer of the Notes.
(f) This Investor Letter has been duly executed and delivered and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws or equitable principles affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity.
