Dear Mr. DeRoma:

This letter (“Agreement”) records the arrangements between you and Nortel Networks Corporation concerning the cessation of your responsibilities as Chief Legal Officer reporting to William A. Owens, Nortel’s Vice-Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The arrangements are as follows:

Cessation of Employment

1.		As used in this Agreement, the term “Corporation” shall mean Nortel Networks Corporation, its subsidiaries and affiliates, their successors and assigns, and all of their past and present officers, directors, employees and agents (in their individual and representative capacities), in every case, individually and collectively.
2.		Effective as of the close of business on September 9, 2005, your employment relationship with the Corporation shall cease. All previous external responsibilities which you had will be assumed by other persons designated by the Corporation, including any participation in industry or other associations representing the Corporation. Prior thereto, you will cease to be an officer and/or director of the Corporation and any of the Corporation’s subsidiaries and affiliates and you will sign such documents as may be reasonably required to record these resignations. You will continue to have access to your office to close out your personal and business affairs as needed until and including September 30, 2005.
3.		You understand and agree that if you have the designation of either “Reporting” or “Non-Reporting” Insider pursuant to Corporate Policy 320.28 of Nortel Networks Corporation (and under applicable Canadian/US securities legislation for Reporting Insiders), you will cease to have this designation effective 12:01 a.m. the day following your termination date of September 9, 2005. Notwithstanding the fact that you will no longer have this designation, if you are in possession of material non-public information relating to Nortel Networks, you are prohibited from trading in Nortel Networks securities (or informing another person of the material non-public information) in accordance with applicable laws. If you are a “Reporting” Insider, you understand that you are required to amend your insider profile within 10 days of your termination date on the Canadian System for Electronic Disclosure by Insiders (SEDI) to indicate that you are no longer a “Reporting” Insider of Nortel Networks. You should contact the Insider Reporting Department at (905)  ###-###-#### and fax (905)  ###-###-#### for assistance in amending the SEDI profile.

	(g)		consider you not to be eligible for any future grant(s) of stock options, including under the Nortel 2005 Stock Option Plan or the 1986 and 2000 stock option plans. For the avoidance of doubt, you will not receive the grant of stock options referenced by Bill Owens in his email to you dated March 22, 2005. If you currently hold any stock options granted under one of the Nortel Networks employee stock option plans, you will have the right to exercise any vested Nortel Networks stock options granted to you under the Nortel Networks Corporation 1986 Stock Option Plan as Amended and Restated (“the 1986 Plan”), the Nortel Networks Corporation 2000 Stock Option Plan (“the 2000 Plan”) and/or a stock option plan previously assumed by Nortel Networks in connection with certain past merger and acquisition transactions, subject to the terms and conditions of those plans and in accordance with the relevant Instruments of Grant.

The Replacement Grant shall be exercisable within a period of thirty-six (36) months from your Retirement Date in accordance with section 6(h) of the 1986 Plan to the extent the Replacement Grant stock options are vested on your Retirement Date in accordance with their terms.
			In the event of your death during retirement, the provisions of section 6(g) of each of the 1986 Plan and the 2000 Plan, respectively, will apply to all of the stock options granted to you under the applicable plan, except the Replacement Grant.

Cessation of Compensation, Benefits and Perquisites

5.

All Corporation compensation, benefits and perquisites not expressly extended to you pursuant to this Agreement shall be terminated effective 12:01 a.m September 10, 2005.

You shall reconcile and settle your employee expense account, and any advances made to you by the Corporation, as soon as possible, but not later than September 30, 2005.

Securities Indemnification

The Corporation shall indemnify you in accordance with section 124 of the Canada Business Corporations Act and the Corporation’s By-Laws.

association with the Corporation (hereafter, a “Matter”). However, in the event that the Corporation’s counsel cannot represent you in a Matter because of a conflict, the Corporation agrees to advance monies to pay your reasonable and actual legal expenses in that Matter provided you agree that you will not settle the Matter, retain defense counsel or expert witnesses or consultants, or incur any defense costs without obtaining the Corporation’s prior consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

Confidentiality

8.

You acknowledge that you continue to be bound by the terms of the Agreement Relating to Intellectual Property and Confidentiality and any related agreements which you executed in the course of your hiring and employment by the Corporation. You confirm that your entire right, title, and interest to all intellectual property as generally described in such agreements with the Corporation are assigned to the Corporation regardless of the exact terms in, or the existence of, such an agreement between you and the Corporation.

		With respect to inventions, discoveries, improvements and designs as covered by the above paragraph, you have disclosed or will promptly disclose them in writing to the Corporation, and you will, on the Corporation’s request, promptly execute a specific assignment of title to the Corporation or its designee, and do anything else reasonably necessary to enable the Corporation to secure a patent or other form of protection in Canada, the United States, and other countries. Any information pertaining to such inventions, discoveries, improvements and designs is considered the confidential information of the Corporation until and unless patented or published by the Corporation.
		Unless and until the terms of this Agreement are disclosed by the Corporation as required by applicable law, you agree that you will not directly or indirectly disclose, publicize or discuss this Agreement, including the terms and/or conditions, with any employee and/or former employee of the Corporation or any other person except your spouse, your lawyer and/or accountant, financial advisor and/or outplacement counsellor. In the event that you discuss this Agreement with any of the aforementioned individuals, it shall be your duty, responsibility and obligation to advise said individual(s) of the confidential nature of this Agreement and direct them not to discuss the terms and/or conditions of this Agreement with any person.
		Also, you shall continue to maintain the confidentiality of all trade secrets and confidential, proprietary, commercial, technical or other information; and specifically you agree that you shall not at any time during or following your employment with the Corporation, disclose, other than to the Corporation’s authorized personnel, or otherwise use for non-Corporation purposes, any confidential or proprietary information or know-how of any nature (whether or not a trade secret) relating to an activity of the Corporation to any invention, which is owned or licensed by the Corporation. You shall continue to maintain the confidentiality of any dealings, transactions or affairs of the Corporation which may have come to your knowledge in any manner during your employment. Further, you agree not to reveal, disclose, or cause to be revealed or disclosed, anything with respect to the Corporation that is injurious or harmful to any of its interests, or the interests of its employees, officers or directors. In addition, during the period September 6, 2005 to September 9, 2007, you:

	(i)		shall issue no public statement on the business affairs, policies or the like of the Corporation without the prior written consent of the Corporation and, without limiting the foregoing, you shall not disparage the Corporation; and,

(iii)

Other

Absent prior approval by the Leader, Global Compensation and Benefits, following your notification to the Corporation pursuant to paragraph 10, not to be unreasonably withheld, the Corporation’s obligations under paragraphs 4(a), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h), (i) and (k) will terminate forthwith if you become an employee, consultant, contractor or representative of any competitor of the Corporation. Furthermore, you agree that if any of the commitments in paragraph 8 are breached, the Corporation has the right to recover, in addition to any other remedy or entitlement the Corporation may have as a result of the breach, an amount equal to the difference between the Market Value of the shares, as of the date of exercise, which you purchased during the Salary Continuation Period as a result of the exercise of your options, and the Subscription Price of those shares covered by such options.

Notice

10.

Upon the occurrence of any contingency which affects your rights in or to any subsequent payment or benefit, or affects the Corporation’s rights under this Agreement, including without limitation, your obtaining new employment, you shall, within fifteen (15) days of such occurrence, provide written notice to the Corporation of that event. Such notice shall be sent in writing to Leader, Global Compensation and Benefits.

Advice and Assistance

11.

You shall make available to the Corporation advice, assistance and information that shall include, but not be limited to, offering and explaining evidence, providing sworn statements or interviews, participation in discovery, and trial preparation testimony as may be deemed necessary by the Corporation concerning the Corporation’s position in any legal proceedings involving issues brought against or initiated by the Corporation of which you have knowledge. In the event it is necessary for you to provide the aforementioned services, then the Corporation shall reimburse you for authorized, reasonable and documented travel expenses, including, but not limited to, transportation, lodging and meals.

Company Property and Information Preservation

12.		Prior to your termination date, and before receiving any monies pursuant to this Agreement, you shall return to Nortel Networks any and all property of Nortel Networks currently in your possession and/or subject to your control, whether such material shall be written instruments or tapes in electronic and/or recorded format.
		Nortel Networks Corporate Procedure 206.01 states that “all documents, messages or data composed, sent, or received through the network of Nortel Networks in any form are and remain at all times the property of Nortel Networks”. In addition, all work product that you have produced during your employment with Nortel Networks is the property of Nortel Networks. Therefore, all information, (however recorded or stored) (“Information”) in your possession and/or that you have created in the course of your employment with Nortel Networks (whether or not currently in your possession or control) is the property of Nortel Networks.
		You are aware that Nortel Networks has received a formal order of investigation from the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) that requires the preservation and collection and disclosure of certain Information to the SEC. Nortel Networks is also a party to various civil lawsuits and other investigations and may need access to certain Information for those matters as well. Therefore, you agree to take affirmative steps to preserve all Information in your possession, custody and control (including information controlled by your assistant, if any).

		As a result, you have the responsibility to secure relevant Information.
		You shall gather (including from on-site and off-site storage) and return to Nortel Networks all physical copies of Information (for example and without limitation, computer discs, Jaz Drive tapes, paper copies) and arrange for this information to be provided to your manager. In addition, Nortel Networks will take possession of your computer and preserve all electronic Information on your computer, as well as any related servers on which you have Information stored, at the time your computer is turned into Nortel Networks. Any Information located in your home, including on a home personal computer, must be returned to Nortel Networks and deleted from your home computer.
		Compliance with this requirement is not optional. Given the penalties which the law provides, it is in everyone’s interest to comply as quickly and completely as possible. None of these materials should be destroyed, even if they are a printout of something on a hard drive, until the investigations and all of the ongoing litigation is concluded. Should you have any questions regarding the implementation of these preservation instructions, please contact your HR prime, without delay.
		The Information will be used by Nortel Networks for general business purposes and may also be provided to regulatory authorities in response to their requests or disclosed in any relevant private litigation to which Nortel Networks is a party. Also, the Information may be used by and provided to entities within the Nortel Networks group of companies and/or Nortel Networks external advisors. In some instances, the recipients of this Information will be located outside your geographic area. To the extent that the Information contains any personal information, you consent to the collection, transfer and disclosure of that information by Nortel Networks to Nortel Networks entities, third parties and regulatory authorities within and outside of your geographic area for the purposes set out above.

The terms and conditions of this Agreement will be open for your review and consideration through the close of business September 8, 2005.

14.
