  2.1 General

 

Under this Agreement, Sprint PCS will provide and sell PCS Service to Purchaser, and Purchaser will purchase the PCS Service from Sprint PCS and pay Sprint PCS for the PCS Service as more specifically described in Schedule 1.0. Sprint PCS authorizes Purchaser to market and sell the PCS Service as Private Label Service in each Market to End Users as more fully described in this Agreement.

 

No provision of this Agreement will be construed as vesting in Purchaser any control whatsoever in any facilities and operations of Sprint PCS, including the Facilities, or the operations of any Sprint PCS Service Provider Affiliate or contractual third party of Sprint PCS. Purchaser will not represent itself as a FCC, federal or state certified licensee for PCS by reason of this Agreement. Purchaser will not, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, entertain or accept any offer of any reseller or (ii) enter into any agreement or other arrangement, to sell or otherwise offer a reseller Private Label Service, unless otherwise required by applicable law. PCS Service purchased by a reseller does not contribute to Purchaser’s Minimum Performance Standards under Schedule 1.0 or any of Purchaser’s other service volume or financial requirements.

 

Purchaser will use its good faith efforts to sell Private Label Service in each Market. Purchaser will advertise and market Private Label Service in each Market with the intent to sell the Private Label Service to End Users. Purchaser may not offer, advertise or market Private Label Service in any Market with the intent to attract potential customers planning to sell or by design then selling the potential customer another wireless or wireline service. If Purchaser discovers or is informed that any of its employees, agents or representatives are engaging in such activities, Purchaser will immediately take all steps necessary to eliminate such activity. Nothing in this Section 2.1 prohibits Purchaser from offering complementary wireless and wireline services in conjunction with the Private Label Service. Purchaser may sell Private Label Service through its IRs, but Purchaser will be responsible for all aspects of the calculation and payment of any

Sprint PCS Proprietary Information — RESTRICTED


commissions or other payments of any kind to its IRs. Purchaser will be solely responsible for ensuring that its IRs comply with all the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 

  2.2 Relationship to Pricing

 

The provisions of this Section 2 and the pricing provisions contained elsewhere in this Agreement are not severable, as the price was premised upon the Minimum Performance Standards negotiated by the parties.

 

3. Term

 

  3.1 General

 

Subject to the breach and early termination provisions set forth in Section 15, the term of this Agreement will be for the period commencing on the Effective Date and extending until the termination or expiration of the last Market Term.

 

  3.2 Market Term

 

Each Market will be included in or added to this Agreement for a specified term (“Market Term”). The Market Term must be a minimum of 1 year and specified in Schedule 2.0 or the amendment to this Agreement adding the Market. If no Market Term is specified, the Market Term will be deemed to be 1 year. An expiring Market Term will be automatically extended for a renewal period (“Market Renewal Term”) equal to the then expiring Market Term or Market Renewal Term, unless either party provides written notice of cancellation to the other party at least 30 days prior to the expiration of the then current Market Term or Market Renewal Term. The Market Term will commence on the Start Date.

 

  3.3 Phase-Out Period

 

Upon expiration of any Market Term, any Market Renewal Term, or the term of the Agreement or upon early termination of this Agreement, the applicable phase-out period set forth in Section 15.3 applies. During the phase-out period, all provisions of this Agreement continue to apply, except the provisions related to exclusivity, current or future minimum performance, service or volume levels. Sprint PCS may reduce its support requirements to levels commensurate with declining subscriber volume and reduced new End User additions, if any.

The party is a company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization. Purchaser has the full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

 

  5.2 No Conflict; No Default

 

Neither the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement nor the consummation by the party of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement will conflict with, violate or result in a breach of (a) any applicable law, regulation, order, writ, injunction, decree, determination or award of any Governmental Authority, (b) any of the terms conditions or provisions of the certificate of organization, bylaws or other governing documents of the party, or (c) any material agreement or instrument to which the party is or may be bound or to which any of its material properties, assets or businesses is subject.

 

  5.3 Litigation

 

There are no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations pending or, to the knowledge of the party, threatened against or affecting the party or any of its properties, assets or businesses in, before or by any Governmental Authority which could, if adversely determined, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the party’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement. The party has not received any currently effective notice of any default.

Sprint PCS Proprietary Information — RESTRICTED


  (ii) PCS Service may be temporarily refused, interrupted, curtailed or otherwise limited because of transmission limitations caused by any factor, including atmospheric, environmental or topographical conditions, Facilities limitations or constraints, or Facilities changes, modifications, updates, relocations, repairs, maintenance or other similar activities necessary for the proper or improved operation of the Facilities; and

 

  (iii) PCS Service will not be of inferior quality or clarity to the comparable PCS services provided by Sprint PCS to similarly situated Customers.

 

  6.2.2 Availability of Facilities and Licenses

  6.2.3 Highly Concentrated Usage

 

If Purchaser or End Users create situations that cause highly concentrated usage in limited areas on the Sprint PCS Network, Purchaser and End Users may encounter temporary capacity constraint related symptoms, such as excessive call blocking or call dropping. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.7, Sprint PCS is not liable to Purchaser or End Users with respect to any claim or damage related to or arising out of or in connection with (i) any such temporary capacity constraint, (ii) any coverage gap or (iii) any temporary PCS Service refusal, interruption, curtailment or other limitation described in Section 6.2.1(ii).

 

Purchaser may notify Sprint PCS of anticipated highly concentrated usage by End Users in a particular area on the Sprint PCS Network, including any anticipated temporary capacity constraint related symptoms. Upon receipt of Purchaser’s notice, Sprint PCS may decide to address the constraint, and if so, the action that Sprint PCS deems appropriate under the circumstances, in its sole discretion.

If Purchaser directly or indirectly violates any portion of this subsection, Sprint PCS will have the right, to be exercised in its sole discretion, to terminate Purchaser’s ability to resell all or any part of Sprint PCS Data Service and/or terminate Purchaser’s End User’s ability access all or any part of the wireless data services.

 

  (iii) Sprint PCS is not a publisher of third party content that can be accessed through Sprint PCS Data Services.

The parties agree that damages for violations of Section 17 may be difficult to ascertain or inadequate and that if either party violates or threatens to violate Section 17, the other party may suffer irreparable harm and therefore may seek injunctive relief in addition to any other right or remedy under this Agreement and any other right or remedy that it may have (now or hereafter existing) at law, in equity or under statute.

Indemnification Procedures

 

Notice

 

The Indemnitee/Sprint PCS Indemnitee will give the Indemnitor written notice within 30 days of becoming aware that any formal or informal claim, demand, or request for indemnified losses under Sections 14.1 or 14.2 will be or has been made against the Indemnitee/Sprint PCS Indemnitee, either individually or with others, (the “Indemnification Claim”). The Indemnitor’s indemnity obligation includes reasonable attorneys’ fees and all other reasonable costs incurred by the Indemnitee/Sprint PCS Indemnitee from the first notice that any Indemnification Claim has been made or may be made, and is not limited in any way by any limitation on the amount or type of damages, compensation, or benefits payable under applicable workers’ compensation acts, disability benefit acts, or other employee benefit acts.

 

Defense by Indemnitor

 

If, within 30 days after the giving of notice, the Indemnitee/Sprint PCS Indemnitee receives written notice from the Indemnitor stating that the Indemnitor intends to dispute or defend against the Indemnification Claim, the Indemnitor will have the right to select counsel of its choice and to dispute or defend against the claim, demand, liability, suit, action or proceeding, at its expense. The Indemnitee/Sprint PCS Indemnitee will fully cooperate with the Indemnitor in the dispute or defense so long as the Indemnitor is conducting the dispute or defense diligently and in good faith; but the Indemnitor will not be permitted to settle the Indemnification Claim without the prior written approval of the Indemnitee/Sprint PCS Indemnitee, which approval will not be unreasonably delayed or withheld. Even though the Indemnitor selects counsel of its choice, the Indemnitee/Sprint PCS Indemnitee has the right to additional representation by counsel of its choice to participate in the defense at Indemnitee’s/Sprint PCS Indemnitee’s sole cost and expense.

 

Defense by Indemnitee/Sprint PCS Indemnitee

 

If (a) no notice of intent to dispute or defend the Indemnification Claim is received by Indemnitee/Sprint PCS Indemnitee within the 30-day period, or (b) diligent and good faith defense is not being, or ceases to be, conducted, by the Indemnitor, the Indemnitee/Sprint PCS Indemnitee has the right to dispute and defend against the Indemnification Claim at the sole reasonable cost and expense of Indemnitor, but the Indemnitee will not be permitted to settle the Indemnification Claim without the prior written approval of the Indemnitor, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld.

Exhibit C

 

Guaranty

 

This Guaranty (“Guaranty”) is dated as of August 14, 2002 and entered into by InPhonic, Inc., with its principal office at 1010 Wisconsin Avenue, NW, Suite 250, Washington, DC 20007 (“Guarantor”) in favor of Sprint Spectrum L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, d/b/a/ Sprint PCS (“Sprint PCS”) and all of its affiliates.

 

Background

 

A. Sprint PCS and Star Number, Inc, a Delaware corporation (including any successor or assignee, “Star Number”), are entering into a Private Label PCS Service Agreement pursuant to which Sprint PCS will sell PCS service to Star Number in order for Star Number to sell PCS service to end users under Star Number’s label, brand and marks (as amended from time to time, the “Agreement”). Unless defined in this Guaranty, all capitalized terms have the meaning given those terms in the Private Label PCS Services Agreement.

 

B. The obligations of Sprint PCS under the Agreement are conditioned on, among other things, the execution and delivery by the Guarantor of this Guaranty.

 

C. To induce Sprint PCS to enter into the Agreement with Star Number, Guarantor has agreed to enter into this Guaranty to guaranty the financial accommodations made to and the other obligations of Star Number under the Agreement. Guarantor is the parent of Star Number and owns 100% of the stock of Star Number and will benefit directly and indirectly from Star Number entering into the Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, and in consideration for Sprint PCS establishing a commercially reasonable credit limit, Guarantor agrees as follows:

 

Operative Provisions

 

1.

Absolute, Unconditional Guaranty: The Guarantor absolutely, unconditionally, continually and irrevocably guarantees to Sprint PCS the full, complete and timely performance by Star Number of any and all obligations and liabilities due Sprint PCS under the Agreement, including (i) payment of all amounts due, (ii) all costs of collection incurred by Sprint PCS in collecting any amounts due or in enforcing any of its rights under the Agreement, (iii) all damages, and (iv) all indemnification obligations, in each case, whether now existing or hereafter arising (“Guaranteed Obligations”). This Guaranty is a guaranty of performance and payment when due and not of collection. This Guaranty is not conditioned on (x) any attempt to require performance of Star Number or upon any other event or contingency, and is binding upon and enforceable against the Guarantor without regard to the genuineness, regularity, validity, enforceability or waiver of the Agreement or of any term thereof or lack of power or authority of Star Number to enter into the Agreement (including any changes thereto), (y) the availability of, or impairment of the value of, any collateral to Sprint PCS, or (z) Sprint PCS’ failure to perfect its interest in any collateral. This Guaranty is not be subject to any counterclaim, setoff, deduction or defense based upon any claim Guarantor or Star Number may have against Sprint PCS, whether out of the Agreement or otherwise, and remains in full force and effect without regard to, and is not released, discharged or in any way affected by, any circumstance or condition; provided, however, this Guaranty shall not be construed to impair or otherwise limit


 

  any rights, defenses or claims that Star Number or Guarantor may have against Sprint PCs related to the Agreement.

 

2. Bankruptcy etc. If (i) the Agreement or Star Number’s obligations thereunder are terminated as a result of the rejection thereof by any trustee, receiver or liquidating agency of Star Number, (ii) there is any assignment for the benefit of creditors or any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding, or (iii) the Agreement or Star Number’s obligations thereunder are otherwise discharged, affected, limited or rendered unenforceable, Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty continue to the same extent as if the Agreement or the obligations thereunder had not been so rejected, disaffirmed, or otherwise affected, limited, discharged or rendered unenforceable. Guarantor hereby waives all rights and benefits which might relieve, in whole or in part, Guarantor from the performance of its duties and obligations under this Guaranty by reason of any such proceeding and Guarantor agrees that it is liable for all of the Guaranteed Obligations irrespective of any modification, limitation or discharge of the liability of Star Number that may result from any such proceedings. If, at any time, payment of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by Sprint PCS upon the bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding of Star Number or otherwise, this Guaranty continues to be effective or is reinstated all as though that payment had not been made.

 

3. Waivers: Without affecting, impairing or releasing Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty, Guarantor unconditionally waives (i) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, (ii) any requirement for the enforcement, assertion or exercise of any right or remedy against Star Number or under the Agreement, (iii) any requirement that Star Number be joined as a party to any proceeding for the enforcement of any provision of this Guaranty, and (iv) any requirement of due diligence on the part of Sprint PCS or (v) any obligation of Star Number to mitigate damages resulting from a default of Star Number under the Agreement. Any and all present and future debts and obligations of Star Number to Guarantor are hereby postponed in favor of and subordinated to the full payment and performance of all present and future debts of Star Number to Sprint PCS.

 

4. Financial Condition of Star Number: Guarantor is presently informed of the financial condition of Star Number and agrees that it will continue to keep itself informed about that condition. Sprint PCS is not obligated to disclose any information, financial or otherwise, it now has, or may become aware of in the future, to Guarantor regarding Star Number.

 

5. Termination of Guaranty: Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty continue in full force and effect and this Guaranty does not terminate until the Guaranteed Obligations are fully and indefeasibly paid, performed and discharged and Sprint PCS gives Guarantor written notice of that fact, such notice not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.


 

6. Subrogation: Guarantor is prohibited from exercising any right of subrogation with respect to any payment made hereunder or otherwise, unless and until all Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full. If any payment is made to Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all Guaranteed Obligations have not been paid in full, any amount so paid will be paid to Sprint PCS to be applied to any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

 

7. Representations and Warranties: Guarantor represents and warrants and agrees that it is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing as a corporation under the laws of the state of its organization, has the full power, authority and legal right to execute and deliver and perform its obligations under this Guaranty, and this Guaranty constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Guarantor enforceable in accordance with its terms. Neither the execution and delivery of this guaranty nor the fulfillment of its terms conflicts with, violates or results in a breach of (i) the articles of incorporation or bylaws of Guarantor or (ii) any other instrument, document, agreement to which Guarantor is now a party or by which it is bound.

 

8. Miscellaneous:

 

    

This Guaranty is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to principles of conflicts of law. GUARANTOR WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ALL CLAIMS OR CAUSES OF ACTION (INCLUDING COUNTERCLAIMS) RELATED TO OR ARISING OUT OF THIS GUARANTY. THIS WAIVER WILL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS OF OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS GUARANTY. Guarantor will pay Sprint PCS’ reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs, which Sprint PCS may incur in the enforcement or collection of this Guaranty and the Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not suit is filed. Time is of the essence with respect to this Guaranty. Every provision of this Guaranty is intended to be severable. If any term or provision of this Guaranty is illegal, invalid or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, that term or provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible so as to effect the intent of the parties, and the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability will not affect the validity or legality of the remainder of this Guaranty. If necessary to effect the intent of this Guaranty, Guarantor and Sprint PCS will negotiate in good faith to amend this Guaranty to replace the unenforceable language with enforceable language which as closely as possible reflects the intent. This Guaranty sets forth the entire agreement and understanding between the Guarantor and Sprint PCS as to the subject matters covered therein and supersede all prior agreements, oral or written, and other communications between the Guarantor and Sprint PCS relating to the subject matter of this Guaranty. Guarantor agrees, at its expense, promptly to execute and deliver to Sprint PCS such further documents and take such further action as Sprint PCS may form time to time reasonably request in order to more effectively carry out the intent and purpose of this Guaranty and to establish and protect the rights and remedies created in favor of Sprint PCS. No amendment or modification of this Guaranty is valid or binding unless made in writing and signed by the duly authorized representatives of Guarantor and Sprint PCS.
