RECITALS A. Flux Fixed Wireless, LLC ("FFW") has formed the Company to engage in strategic acquisitions to assemble spectrum rights and other assets to develop a competitive wireless broadband services company.

C. The Company and certain Stockholders entered into that certain Stockholders Agreement dated as of November 13, 2003 (the "Original Agreement"). D. Prior to the date hereof, NextNet Wireless, Inc.

F. The parties desire to amend the Original Agreement as set forth herein. G. Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement have the definitions provided in Section 12 hereof. THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties, intending legally to be bound, agree as follows: AGREEMENT 1.

Such written notification shall be a binding, irrevocable commitment to participate in the Restructuring on the same terms and conditions as the McCaw Entities. 1.04 TERMINATION OF PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS If an Eligible NextNet Stockholder fails to fully exercise its preemptive rights pursuant to Section 1.01 or Section 1.03 at any time, then such Eligible NextNet Stockholder shall no longer be entitled to any preemptive rights pursuant Section 1.01 and Section 1.03 and such rights shall be terminated in their entirety with respect to such NextNet Stockholder; provided, however, that such rights shall not terminate in connection with the first opportunity to exercise the rights granted under Sections 1.01 and 1.03 so long as the Eligible NextNet Shareholder has purchased at least 50% of the Shares that the Eligible NextNet Shareholder was entitled to purchase. 2. ANTI-DILUTION RIGHTS 2.01 GRANT OF ANTI-DILUTION RIGHTS The Company shall not issue and sell or agree to issue and sell New Shares to a McCaw Entity for consideration per share that is less than the Trigger Price in effect immediately prior to such issue (each, a "Dilutive Issuance"), unless the Company concurrently issues to each of HITN, ISA, Clearwire and each NextNet Stockholder (or their respective Permitted Transferees) for no consideration a number of New Shares equal to (i) such Stockholder's Adjusted Shares less (ii) such Stockholder's Original Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issued pursuant to this Section 2.01. The number of Shares issued shall be rounded up to the nearest integral number of whole Shares. For the purposes of this Section 2.01, for each Dilutive Issuance, the following terms shall have the following meanings: (a) "Adjusted Shares" means, for each of HITN, ISA, Clearwire and each NextNet Stockholder (or their respective Permitted Transferees), the number obtained by dividing (x) such Stockholder's Original Shares by (y) the product of (1) the Trigger Price in effect immediately prior to such issue multiplied by (2) the Adjustment Ratio. 4 (b) "Adjustment Ratio" means the fraction in which (i) the numerator is the sum of (A) the total number of all shares of capital stock of the Company issued and outstanding immediately prior to Dilutive Issuance, and (B) the number of shares that the aggregate consideration received by the Company from the McCaw Entities in the Dilutive Issuance would purchase at the Trigger Price in effect immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance, and (ii) the denominator is the sum of (C) the total number of all shares of capital stock of the Company issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Dilutive Issuance and (D) the total number of all New Shares that the Company issues to the McCaw Entities in the Dilutive Issuance. For the purposes of this Section 2.01, the total number of all shares of capital stock of the Company issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Dilutive Issuance shall be determined on a fully-diluted and as-converted to Class A Common Stock basis (but excluding any shares and options, warrants or other rights to acquire shares that are reserved but unallocated pursuant to any stock plan); (c) "Original Shares" means, for each of HITN, ISA, Clearwire and each NextNet Stockholder (or their respective Permitted Transferees), the total number of Shares held by HITN, ISA, Clearwire or NextNet Stockholders, as applicable, on March __, 2004 or hereafter acquired by HITN, ISA or Clearwire, as applicable, pursuant to an agreement with the Company existing on the date hereof (other than pursuant to this Agreement), excluding any Shares acquired at an effective price less than the Trigger Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance that results in an anti-dilutive adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.01, and that are held by such Stockholder immediately prior to a Dilutive Issuance (as adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock split or other distribution of shares); and (d) "Trigger Price" shall initially mean the Original Issue Price. The Trigger Price shall be proportionately adjusted from time to time for any stock splits (subdivisions or combinations), stock dividends, recapitalizations or reorganizations pursuant to which securities of the Company are issued with respect to a Stockholder's Original Shares. 2.02 AUTOMATIC WAIVER OF ANTI-DILUTION RIGHTS If a Stockholder exercises its preemptive rights pursuant to Section 1 hereof with respect to any new financing that would otherwise trigger the rights under this Section 2, such Stockholder's exercise of its preemptive rights shall be deemed an automatic waiver of such Stockholder's rights to receive additional Shares pursuant to Section 2.01. 2.03 TERMINATION OF ANTI-DILUTION RIGHTS The rights granted under this Section 2 shall terminate immediately after the closing of one or more equity financing transactions in which the Company raises an aggregate of $75,000,000 at a pre-money valuation of at least $250,000,000 and a value per Share of Common Stock of at least $3.00, as established in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors. 3. ADDITIONAL MCCAW ENTITY INVESTMENTS The parties acknowledge and agree that the McCaw Entities shall have the unfettered right to invest additional funds and property in the Company at any time and from time to time in 5 exchange for additional Shares of Class B Common Stock at the higher of (i) the higher of the Original Issue Price or the Current Price, or (ii) the price otherwise established for such purpose by agreement between the Company and one or more of the McCaw Entities or by decision of the Board of Directors from time to time, subject only to the rights of the other Stockholders under Section 1 hereof. If the price for the additional Shares of Class B Common Stock is less than the higher of the Original Issue Price or the Current Price, the transaction shall be fair to the Company and require the approval of the Disinterested Directors; provided further, that the approval of the Disinterested Directors shall not be required in the event the purchase of Shares by a McCaw Entity is pursuant to the exercise of its preemptive rights pursuant to Section 1 hereof. 4. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERS 4.01 DEFINITION OF A TRANSFER For purposes of this Agreement the term "Transfer" shall be interpreted broadly to include, by way of example and without limitation whatsoever, any direct or indirect sale, assignment, award, confirmation, distribution, bequest, donation, trust, pledge, encumbrance, hypothecation, or other transfer or disposition, for consideration or otherwise, whether voluntarily, involuntarily, by operation of law, or otherwise.

MCCAW ENTITY PURCHASE RIGHTS 5.01 RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL With respect to any Transfer, or agreement to engage in a Transfer, prior to the earlier of (i) January 1, 2009 or (ii) a Termination Event, the McCaw Entities shall have, and each other Stockholder hereby irrevocably grants to the McCaw Entities, the rights (the "Right of First Refusal") described in this Section 5.01. (a) A Stockholder (other than a McCaw Entity) (the "Selling Stockholder") that desires to Transfer its Stock in compliance with this Section 5.01 must first receive a bona fide, written, binding offer and commitment ("Offer") for the acquisition of any or all of the Transferor's Shares from a Qualified Transferee (other than an Affiliate or an Associate of the Selling Stockholder), that is capable of consummating the proposed acquisition on the terms of the Offer, conditioned only on the exercise of Stockholder rights under this Agreement and satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Upon receipt and acceptance of an Offer, the Selling Stockholder shall give written notice (the "ROFR Notice") to FFW stating that the Selling Stockholder intends to Transfer Stock. The ROFR Notice shall identify the Qualified Transferee, specify the type and number of shares of Stock to be Transferred to the Qualified Transferee (the "ROFR Shares"), specify the per share price (in cash or other consideration) (the "Sale Price") that the Qualified Transferee has agreed to pay for the ROFR Shares, and enclose an accurate summary of all terms and conditions of the proposed transfer. (b) The ROFR Notice shall constitute the Selling Stockholder's binding offer to sell the ROFR Shares to the McCaw Entities on the terms set forth in the ROFR Notice and this Agreement. The McCaw Entities, or any of them, shall have 10 business days after delivery of the ROFR Notice (subject to any required regulatory approvals, provided that the appropriate McCaw Entity is using commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy such regulatory condition as soon as reasonably practicable) (the "ROFR Exercise Period") to exercise its right to purchase all, but not less than all of, the ROFR Shares at the Sale Price and upon the other terms and conditions set forth in the ROFR Notice by written notice to the Selling Stockholder within the ROFR Exercise Period. 8 (c) Failure to deliver such a notice within the ROFR Exercise Period shall constitute waiver of the Right of First Refusal with respect to the ROFR Shares, and the Selling Stockholder shall have ninety (90) business days thereafter to complete the transfer of the ROFR Shares to the Qualified Transferee pursuant to the Offer; otherwise, the ROFR Shares shall thereupon be again subject to the right of first refusal described in this Section 5.01 before any transfer can be made. (d) Delivery of a notice exercising the Right of First Refusal shall create a binding contract between the applicable McCaw Entities and the Selling Stockholder for the purchase and sale of the ROFR Shares at the Sale Price and on the terms and conditions in the Offer and this Section 5.01. In that event, the McCaw Entities exercising the right of first refusal shall deliver the Sale Price for the ROFR Shares, in immediately available funds, to the Selling Stockholder to effectuate the Transfer of the ROFR Shares within five business days after the end of the ROFR Exercise Period or the satisfaction of the conditions to closing contained in the ROFR Notice provided that the appropriate McCaw Entity is using commercially reasonable efforts to cause such condition to be satisfied as soon as reasonably practicable. The Selling Stockholder shall effectuate the Transfer of the ROFR Shares by promptly delivering to the applicable McCaw Entities one or more certificates, properly endorsed for transfer, that represent the ROFR Shares, together with stock powers and such other closing documentation at the applicable McCaw Entities may reasonably request. (e) A Transfer to one of the McCaw Entities or a Qualified Transferee in accordance with this Section 5.01 is not subject to Section 4.02 or Section 7. 5.02 RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER At any time prior to the earlier of (i) January 1, 2009 or (ii) a Termination Event, when the McCaw Entities do not have the Right of First Refusal (other than with respect to a Permitted Transfer), the McCaw Entities shall have, and each Stockholder hereby irrevocably grants to the McCaw Entities, the rights (the "Right of First Offer") described in this Section 5.02: (a) A Selling Stockholder that desires to Transfer its Stock in compliance with this Section 5.02 must first give written notice (the "ROFO Notice") to FFW stating that the Selling Stockholder intends to Transfer Stock. The ROFO Notice shall identify the Qualified Transferee, if known, and specify the type and number of shares of Stock to be Transferred (the "ROFO Shares") and specify the proposed Sale Price. (b) The ROFO Notice shall constitute the Selling Stockholder's binding offer to sell the ROFO Shares to the McCaw Entities on the terms set forth in the ROFO Notice and this Agreement. The McCaw Entities, or any of them, shall have 10 business days after delivery of the ROFO Notice (subject to any required regulatory approvals, provided that the appropriate McCaw Entity is using commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy such regulatory condition as soon as reasonably practicable) (the "ROFO Exercise Period") to exercise its right to purchase all, but not less than all of, the ROFO Shares at the Sale Price and upon the other terms and conditions set forth in the ROFO Notice by written notice to the Selling Stockholder within the ROFO Exercise Period. 9 (c) Failure to deliver such a notice within the ROFO Exercise Period shall constitute waiver of the Right of First Offer with respect to the ROFO Shares, and the Selling Stockholder shall have ninety (90) calendar days thereafter to complete the transfer of the ROFO Shares to a Qualified Transferee at a price no lower than the Sale Price and the other terms set forth in the ROFO Notice, or other terms that taken as a whole are no less favorable to the Selling Stockholder; otherwise, the ROFO Shares shall thereupon be again subject to the Right of First Offer described in this Section 5.02 before any transfer can be made. (d) Delivery of a notice exercising the Right of First Offer shall create a binding contract between the applicable McCaw Entities and the Selling Stockholder for the purchase and sale of the ROFO Shares at the Sale Price and on the terms and conditions in the ROFO Notice and this Section 5.02. In that event, the McCaw Entities exercising the Right of First Offer shall deliver the Sale Price for the ROFO Shares, in immediately available funds, to the Selling Stockholder to effectuate the Transfer of the ROFO Shares within five business days after the end of the ROFO Exercise Period or the satisfaction of the conditions to closing contained in the ROFO Notice provided that the appropriate McCaw Entity is using commercially reasonable efforts to cause such condition to be satisfied as soon as reasonably practicable. The Selling Stockholder shall effectuate the Transfer of the ROFO Shares by promptly delivering to the applicable McCaw Entities one or more certificates, properly endorsed for transfer, that represent the ROFO Shares, together with stock powers and such other closing documentation at the applicable McCaw Entities may reasonably request. (e) A Transfer in accordance with this Section 5.02 is not subject to Section 4.02 or Section 7. 6. PARTICIPATION IN TRANSFERS BY MCCAW ENTITIES 6.01 DRAG/TAG NOTICE In the event ("Participation Trigger") any one or more McCaw Entities (the "Selling McCaw Entities") commits to a Transfer of 25% or more of all Stock then held by all McCaw Entities in a bona fide arm's-length transaction, or a series of related bona fide arm's length transactions, with a Person that is not an Affiliate of the McCaw Entities, then before consummating the sale, the Selling McCaw Entities shall give written notice (the "Drag/Tag Notice") to all other Stockholders informing them of the material terms of the Transfer, including the identity of the potential purchaser, the type and number of shares of Stock to be transferred to the potential purchaser (the "Drag/Tag Shares"), the weighted average price per share to be paid by the potential purchaser to any selling McCaw Entities (the "Drag/Tag Price"), and the transfer date. 6.02 EXERCISE OF DRAG ALONG RIGHT (a) The Selling McCaw Entities shall have the right (subject to the regulatory approvals), exercisable upon written notice to the other Stockholders within 10 business days after the delivery of the Drag/Tag Notice, to require all other Stockholders to Transfer their Drag Along Pro Rata Share (as defined herein) concurrently with the Transfer by the Selling McCaw Entities at the Drag/Tag Price and on the same terms and conditions as those received by the 10 Selling McCaw Entities (the "Drag Along Right"). The Selling McCaw Entities shall specify in the Drag/Tag Notice the number of shares to be sold by each Stockholder, which shall equal the product of the Stockholder's Percentage times the number of Drag/Tag Shares (the "Drag Along Pro Rata Share"). (b) Notwithstanding Section 6.01 and subparagraph (a) of this Section 6.02, with respect to any Shares held by HITN, the Selling McCaw Entities may only exercise the Drag Along Right if such Selling McCaw Entity commits to a Transfer of 51% or more of all Stock then held by all McCaw Entities in a bona fide arm's-length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate of the McCaw Entities unless the Drag/Tag Price equals 2 times the Original Issue Price. 6.03 EXERCISE OF TAG-ALONG RIGHT If, upon the occurrence of a Participation Trigger, none of the Selling McCaw Entities invoke their Drag Along Rights pursuant to Section 6.02, then before consummating the sale, each Stockholder shall have the right (subject to the regulatory approvals) ("Tag Along Right"), exercisable upon written notice to the Selling McCaw Entities within 10 business days after the delivery of the Drag/Tag Notice, to participate in the Selling McCaw Entities' Transfer of Drag/Tag Shares. Such written notice shall constitute the Stockholder's election to cause the transferee to purchase, at the Drag/Tag Price and on the terms and conditions as those received by the Selling McCaw Entities, a portion of the Stockholder's Stock equal the product of the Stockholder's Percentage times the number of Drag/Tag Shares. 6.04 DELIVERY OF SHARES; CLOSING At least three days prior to the transfer date (provided that the other Stockholders shall have received at least 10 business days' advance notice of the transfer date), all selling Stockholders shall deliver to the Company the certificates evidencing their respective Stock to be sold under this Section 5.02, duly endorsed for transfer to the potential purchaser. On the transfer date and provided that the McCaw Entities consummate the Transfer of their pro rata share of the Drag/Tag Shares to the potential purchaser at the Drag/Tag Price and on the same terms and conditions, then the Company shall deliver the certificates evidencing all Drag/Tag Shares held by the Stockholders to the purchaser against payment of the Drag/Tag Price for such Stock, and the Company shall promptly remit such payment to the Stockholders in the respective amounts due them without reduction or adjustment of any kind except as may be required by law. 6.05 INAPPLICABILITY OF TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS A Transfer in accordance with this Section 6 is not subject to Section 4.02 or 7. 6.06 REMEDIES Each Stockholder hereby consents to every sale pursuant to this Section 6, and hereby agrees to sell its Stock on the terms and conditions approved by the McCaw Entities. All Stockholders shall take all necessary actions approved by the McCaw Entities in connection with the consummation of the sale, so long as all such actions are equally applicable to the McCaw 11 Entities, including the execution of such agreements and such instruments and other actions reasonably necessary (a) to the extent required by the potential purchaser, to make, severally but not jointly, the same customary representations, warranties, indemnities, covenants, conditions, escrow agreements, and other agreements relating to such sale and (b) to effectuate the allocation and distribution of the aggregate consideration upon the sale as set forth in this Section 5.02. In the event a Stockholder fails to comply with the requirements of this Section 5.02, the McCaw Entities and the Company shall have, in addition to whatever other rights they may have in law or in equity, such call rights against such Stockholder as shall be necessary and appropriate to effect the intent of this Section 6, and the Stockholders agree to be bound by such call rights. 7. OTHER EVENTS CONSTITUTING AN OFFER TO PURCHASE SHARES 7.01 REPURCHASE EVENTS Except for Permitted Transfers and Transfers pursuant to Section 5 or 6 (as to Right of First Refusal, Drag-Along Rights, and Tag-Along Rights), any one or more of the following events or conditions with respect to a Stockholder shall be deemed to constitute a "Repurchase Event" with respect to such Stockholder's Shares: (a) The filing of a petition in bankruptcy by or against a Stockholder or any general assignment by a Stockholder for the benefit of such Stockholder's creditors; (b) The dissolution or commencement of liquidation of a Stockholder that is an entity, except for a Transfer in accordance with Section 4.03(d) or 4.03(k); (c) The Change of Control of a Stockholder that is an entity without the prior written consent of the Company, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (d) Any Transfer, or any other event which, were it not for the provisions of this Agreement, would cause any such Shares or any interest therein to be transferred, in violation of Section 4 of this Agreement. 7.02 OFFER NOTICE Within 30 days after the occurrence of a Repurchase Event, the Stockholder or the Stockholder's trustee in bankruptcy, personal representative, guardian, executor, or administrator, as appropriate (for purposes of this Section 7, the "Transferor") shall give notice (for purposes of this Section 7, the "Offer Notice") to FFW of such Repurchase Event, specifying the date of the Repurchase Event and describing in reasonable detail the nature of the Repurchase Event and the number of Shares affected (the "Offered Shares"). The Offer Notice shall state that the price per share is the lower of the Original Issue Price or the Current Price. If FFW has not received this notice upon the expiration of the 30-day period, any Stockholder, director, or officer of the Company who has knowledge of the Repurchase Event may give such notice (with a copy of the same to the Transferor) at any time after the end of such period, and such notice shall be deemed to be the Offer Notice. 12 7.03 PURCHASE OF SHARES Upon the occurrence of any Repurchase Event, the Company shall have the right to purchase the Offered Shares for the price and on the terms described in this Section 7.
