shall not be required to issue or deliver any Shares prior to fulfillment of all of the following conditions:

          (a) The admission of such Shares to listing on all stock exchanges on which such Common Stock is then listed; and

          (b) The completion of any registration or other qualification of such shares under any state or federal law or under rulings or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or of any other governmental regulatory body, which the Administrator shall, in its absolute discretion, deem necessary or advisable; and

          (c) The obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any state or federal governmental agency which the Administrator shall, in its absolute discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable; and

Except as otherwise provided herein, upon delivery of the Shares to the escrow holder pursuant to Article IV, Holder shall have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to said Shares, subject to the restrictions herein, including the right to vote the Shares and to receive all dividends or other distributions paid or made with respect to the Shares; provided, however, that any and all cash dividends paid on such Shares and any and all shares of Common Stock, capital stock or other securities received by or distributed to Holder with respect to the Shares as a result of any stock dividend stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification, or similar change in the capital structure of the Company shall also be subject to the Repurchase Option (as defined in Section 3.1 below) and the restrictions on transfer in Section 3.4 below until such restrictions on the underlying Shares lapse or are removed pursuant to this Agreement.

RESTRICTIONS ON SHARES

     3.1 Repurchase Option. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.2 below, if Holder has a Termination of Employment, Termination of Directorship or Termination of Consultancy, as applicable, before all of the Shares are released from the Company’s Repurchase Option (as defined below), the Company shall, upon the date of such Termination (as reasonably fixed and determined by the Company), have an irrevocable, exclusive option, but not the obligation, for a period of sixty (60) days, commencing ninety (90) days after the date Holder has a Termination of Employment, Termination of Directorship or Termination of Consultancy, as applicable, to

4-Year Vesting Restricted Stock Award (Berger 18 mos acceleration)		7/08
50%y3/50%y4 (RS001125)

repurchase all or any portion of the Unreleased Shares (as defined below in Section 3.3) at such time (the “Repurchase Option”) at the original cash purchase price per share (the “Repurchase Price”). The Repurchase Option shall lapse and terminate one hundred fifty (150) days after Holder has a Termination of Employment, Termination of Directorship or Termination of Consultancy, as applicable. The Repurchase Option shall be exercisable by the Company by written notice to Holder or Holder’s executor (with a copy to the escrow agent appointed pursuant to Section 4.1 below) and shall be exercisable, at the Company’s option, by delivery to Holder or Holder’s executor with such notice of a check in the amount of the Repurchase Price times the number of Shares to be repurchased (the “Aggregate Repurchase Price”). Upon delivery of such notice and the payment of the Aggregate Repurchase Price, the Company shall become the legal and beneficial owner of the Shares being repurchased and all rights and interests therein or relating thereto, and the Company shall have the right to retain and transfer to its own name the number of Shares being repurchased by the Company. In the event the Company repurchases any Shares under this Section 3.1, any dividends or other distributions paid on such Shares and held by the escrow agent pursuant to Section 4.1 and the Joint Escrow Instructions shall be promptly paid by the escrow agent to the Company.

     3.2 Release of Shares from Repurchase Restriction. Subject to Section 3.1 above, the Shares shall be released from the Company’s Repurchase Option as indicated in Exhibit B to the Grant Notice. Any of the Shares released from the Company’s Repurchase Option shall thereupon be released from the restrictions on transfer under Section 3.4. In the event any of the Shares are released from the Company’s Repurchase Option, any dividends or other distributions paid on such Shares and held by the escrow agent pursuant to Section 4.1 and the Joint Escrow Instructions shall be promptly paid by the escrow agent to Holder.

     3.3 Unreleased Shares. Any of the Shares which, from time to time, have not yet been released from the Company’s Repurchase Option are referred to herein as “Unreleased Shares.”

     3.4 Restrictions on Transfer. Unless otherwise permitted by the Administrator pursuant to the Plan, no Unreleased Shares or any dividends or other distributions thereon or any interest or right therein or part thereof, shall be liable for the debts, contracts or engagements of Holder or his or her successors in interest or shall be subject to disposition by transfer, alienation, anticipation, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or any other means whether such disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy), and any attempted disposition thereof shall be null and void and of no effect.

ARTICLE IV

ESCROW OF SHARES

     4.1 Escrow of Shares. To insure the availability for delivery of Holder’s Unreleased Shares upon repurchase by the Company pursuant to the Repurchase Option under Section 3.1, Holder hereby appoints the Secretary of the Company, or any other person designated by the Administrator as escrow agent, as his or her attorney-in-fact to assign and transfer unto the Company, such Unreleased Shares, if any, repurchased by the Company pursuant to the

4-Year Vesting Restricted Stock Award (Berger 18 mos acceleration)		7/08
50%y3/50%y4 (RS001125)

Repurchase Option pursuant to Section 3.1 and any dividends or other distributions thereon, and shall, upon execution of this Agreement, deliver and deposit with the Secretary of the Company, or such other person designated by the Administrator, any share certificates representing the Unreleased Shares, together with the stock assignment duly endorsed in blank, attached to the Grant Notice as Exhibit D to the Grant Notice. The Unreleased Shares and stock assignment shall be held by the Secretary of the Company, or such other person designated by the Administrator, in escrow, pursuant to the Joint Escrow Instructions of the Company and Holder attached as Exhibit E to the Grant Notice, until the Company exercises its Repurchase Option as provided in Section 3.1, until such Unreleased Shares are released from the Company’s Repurchase Option, or until such time as this Agreement no longer is in effect. Upon release of the Unreleased Shares, the escrow agent shall deliver to Holder the certificate or certificates representing such Shares in the escrow agent’s possession belonging to Holder in accordance with the terms of the Joint Escrow Instructions attached as Exhibit E to the Grant Notice, and the escrow agent shall be discharged of all further obligations hereunder; provided, however, that the escrow agent shall nevertheless retain such certificate or certificates as escrow agent if so required pursuant to other restrictions imposed pursuant to this Agreement. If the Shares are held in book entry form, then such entry will reflect that the Shares are subject to the restrictions of this Agreement. If any dividends or other distributions are paid on the Unreleased Shares held by the escrow agent pursuant to this Section 4.1 and the Joint Escrow Instructions, such dividends or other distributions shall also be subject to the restrictions set forth in this Agreement and held in escrow pending release of the Unreleased Shares with respect to which such dividends or other distributions were paid from the Company’s Repurchase Option.

     4.2 Transfer of Repurchased Shares. Holder hereby authorizes and directs the Secretary of the Company, or such other person designated by the Administrator, to transfer the Unreleased Shares as to which the Repurchase Option has been exercised from Holder to the Company.

     4.3 No Liability for Actions in Connection with Escrow. The Company, or its designee, shall not be liable for any act it may do or omit to do with respect to holding the Shares in escrow and while acting in good faith and in the exercise of its judgment.

ARTICLE V

OTHER PROVISIONS

     5.1 Adjustment for Stock Split. In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification, or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, the Administrator shall make appropriate and equitable adjustments in the Unreleased Shares subject to the Repurchase Option and the number of Shares, consistent with any adjustment under Section 10.3 of the Plan. The provisions of this Agreement shall apply, to the full extent set forth herein with respect to the Shares, to any and all shares of capital stock or other securities which may be issued in respect of, in exchange for, or in substitution of the Shares, and shall be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividends, splits, reverse splits, combinations, recapitalizations and the like occurring after the date hereof.

4-Year Vesting Restricted Stock Award (Berger 18 mos acceleration)		7/08
50%y3/50%y4 (RS001125)

     5.2 Taxes. Holder has reviewed with Holder’s own tax advisors the federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by the Grant Notice and this Agreement. Holder is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents. Holder understands that Holder (and not the Company) shall be responsible for Holder’s own tax liability that may arise as a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Holder understands that Holder will recognize ordinary income for federal income tax purposes under Section 83 of the Code. Holder understands that Holder may elect to be taxed for federal income tax purposes at the time the Shares are purchased rather than as and when the Repurchase Option lapses by filing an election under Section 83(b) of the Code with the Internal Revenue Service within thirty (30) days from the date of purchase. A form of election under Section 83(b) of the Code is attached to the Grant Notice as Exhibit F.

     HOLDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS HOLDER’S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY AND NOT THE COMPANY’S TO TIMELY FILE THE ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b), EVEN IF HOLDER REQUESTS THE COMPANY OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES TO MAKE THIS FILING ON HOLDER’S BEHALF

     5.3 Limitations Applicable to Section 16 Persons. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement, if Holder is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the Plan, the Shares and this Agreement shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any amendment to Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act) that are requirements for the application of such exemptive rule. To the extent permitted by applicable law, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule.

     5.4 Administration. The Administrator shall have the power to interpret the Plan and this Agreement and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret, amend or revoke any such rules. All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Administrator in good faith shall be final and binding upon Holder, the Company and all other interested persons. No member of the Administrator shall be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan, this Agreement or the Shares. In its absolute discretion, the Board may at any time and from time to time exercise any and all rights and duties of the Administrator under the Plan and this Agreement.

     5.5 Restrictive Legends and Stop-Transfer Orders.

          (a) Any share certificate(s) evidencing the Shares issued hereunder shall be endorsed with the following legend and any other legend required by any applicable federal and state securities laws:

THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO A RIGHT OF REPURCHASE IN FAVOR OF THE COMPANY AND MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF A RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY

AND THE STOCKHOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.

          (b) Holder agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, the Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records.

          (c) The Company shall not be required: (i) to transfer on its books any shares of Common Stock that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement, or (ii) to treat as owner of such shares of Common Stock or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such shares shall have been so transferred.

     5.6 Notices. Any notice to be given under the terms of this Agreement to the Company shall be addressed to the Company in care of the Secretary of the Company, and any notice to be given to Holder shall be addressed to Holder at the address given beneath Holder’s signature on the Grant Notice. By a notice given pursuant to this Section 5.6, either party may hereafter designate a different address for notices to be given to that party. Any notice shall be deemed duly given when sent via email or when sent by certified mail (return receipt requested) and deposited (with postage prepaid) in a post office or branch post office regularly maintained by the United States Postal Service.

     5.7 Titles. Titles are provided herein for convenience only and are not to serve as a basis for interpretation or construction of this Agreement.

     5.8 Governing Law; Severability. This Agreement shall be administered, interpreted and enforced under the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to conflicts of laws thereof. Should any provision of this Agreement be determined by a court of law to be illegal or unenforceable, the other provisions shall nevertheless remain effective and shall remain enforceable.

     5.9 Conformity to Securities Laws. Holder acknowledges that the Plan is intended to conform to the extent necessary with all provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and any and all regulations and rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, and state securities laws and regulations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Plan shall be administered, and the Shares are to be issued, only in such a manner as to conform to such laws, rules and regulations. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan and this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such laws, rules and regulations.

     5.10 Amendments. This Agreement may not be modified, amended or terminated except by an instrument in writing, signed by Holder and by a duly authorized representative of the Company.

     5.11 No Employment Rights. If Holder is an Employee, nothing in the Plan or this Agreement shall confer upon Holder any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any

4-Year Vesting Restricted Stock Award (Berger 18 mos acceleration)		7/08
50%y3/50%y4 (RS001125)

Subsidiary or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Company and its Subsidiaries, which are expressly reserved, to discharge Holder at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause, except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in a written agreement between the Company and Holder.

     5.12 Successors and Assigns. The Company may assign any of its rights under this Agreement to single or multiple assignees, and this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer herein set forth, this Agreement shall be binding upon Holder and his or her heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.

Holder must provide written notice to the Company of the occurrence of any of the foregoing events or conditions without Holder’s written consent within ninety (90) days of the initial occurrence of such event or condition.

          (c) Condition to Release of Shares.

FORM OF GENERAL RELEASE

     1. General Release of Claims. In consideration of certain rights to accelerated vesting of shares of common stock of Leap Wireless International, Inc. (the “Company”) granted to the undersigned (“Holder”) pursuant to the Leap Wireless International, Inc. 2004 Stock Option, Restricted Stock and Deferred Stock Unit Plan (the “Plan”), Holder does hereby for himself or herself and his or her spouse, beneficiaries, heirs, successors and assigns, release, acquit and forever discharge the Company and Cricket Communications, Inc. (collectively, the “Companies”) and their respective stockholders, officers, directors, managers, employees, representatives, related entities, successors and assigns, and all persons acting by, through or in concert with them (collectively, the “Releasees”) of and from any and all claims, actions, charges, complaints, causes of action, rights, demands, debts, damages, or accountings of whatever nature, except for criminal activity, known or unknown, which Holder may have against the Releasees based on any actions or events which occurred prior to the date of this General Release, including, but not limited to, those related to, or arising from, Holder’s employment with the Companies, or the termination thereof, any claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Federal Age Discrimination and Employment Act and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act (collectively, “Claims”). This General Release shall not, however, constitute a waiver of any of Holder’s vested rights under any outstanding award granted to Holder pursuant to the Plan or under the terms of any employee benefit plan of the Companies in which Holder is a participant.

     2. Release of Unknown Claims. In addition, Holder expressly waives all rights under Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California, which reads as follows:

A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH A CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.

     3. Older Worker’s Benefit Protection Act. Holder agrees and expressly acknowledges that this General Release includes a waiver and release of all claims which Holder has or may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended, 29 U.S.C. § 621, et seq. (“ADEA”). The following terms and conditions apply to and are part of the waiver and release of the ADEA claims under this General Release:

          a. That this General Release is written in a manner calculated to be understood by Holder.

          b. The waiver and release of claims under the ADEA contained in this General Release do not cover rights or claims that may arise after the date on which Holder signs this General Release.

          c. The rights to accelerated vesting of shares of the Company’s common stock provide for consideration in addition to anything of value to which Holder is already entitled.

          d. Holder is advised to consult an attorney before signing this General Release.

          e. Holder is afforded twenty-one (21) days (or, in the event that the Holder is terminated in connection with an exit incentive or other employment termination program, forty-five (45) days) after Holder is provided with this General Release to decide whether or not to sign this General Release. If Holder executes this General Release prior to the expiration of such period, Holder does so voluntarily and after having had the opportunity to consult with an attorney.

          f. In the event that any termination of Holder’s employment is in connection with an exit incentive or other employment termination program, Holder is provided with written information, calculated to be understood by the average individual eligible to participate, as to:

          (i) any class, unit, or group of individuals covered by such program, any eligibility factors for such program, and any time limits applicable to such programs; and

          (ii) the job titles and ages of all individuals eligible or selected for the program, and the ages of all individuals in the same job classification or organizational unit who are not eligible or not selected for the program.

          g. Holder will have the right to revoke this General Release within seven (7) days of signing this General Release. In the event this General Release is revoked, this General Release will be null and void in its entirety, and Holder will not receive the benefits described in Paragraph 1 above.

          h. If Holder wishes to revoke the General Release, Holder shall deliver written notice stating his or her intent to revoke this General Release to the Company’s Corporate Secretary on or before the seventh (7^th) day after the date hereof.

     4. No Assignment of Claims. Holder represents and warrants to the Releasees that there has been no assignment or other transfer of any interest in any Claim which Holder may have against the Releasees, or any of them, and Holder agrees to indemnify and hold the Releasees harmless from any liability, claims, demands, damages, costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees incurred as a result of any person asserting any such assignment or transfer of any rights or Claims under any such assignment or transfer from such party.

     5. No Suits or Actions. Holder agrees that if he or she hereafter commences, joins in, or in any manner seeks relief through any suit arising out of, based upon, or relating to any of the Claims released hereunder, or in any manner asserts against the Releasees any of the Claims released hereunder, then he or she will pay to the Releasees against whom such suit or Claim is asserted, in addition to any other damages caused thereby, all attorneys’ fees incurred by such

Releasees in defending or otherwise responding to said suit or Claim.

     6. No Admission. Holder further understands and agrees that neither the payment of money nor the execution of this Release shall constitute or be construed as an admission of any liability whatsoever by the Releasees.
