breach. Seller shall promptly investigate such breach and advise the Company of
Seller's planned corrective action. Thereafter, Seller shall promptly repair or

Company. If such breach of warranty has not been corrected to the Company's
satisfaction within a reasonable time (not to exceed thirty (30) days from the
date of the Company's notice to Seller of the breach), the Company may, in
addition to all other rights and remedies provided by law or this Agreement,

except state sales and use taxes, which shall be added as applicable and stated
as separate items on the invoice applicable to each delivery of Products.

12.  INFRINGEMENT INDEMNITY

claim that the Products supplied hereunder infringe a United States patent or
copyright provided that  (i) the Company promptly notifies Seller in writing of
the claim, (ii) the Company gives Seller full opportunity and authority to
assume sole control of the defense and all related settlement negotiations, and

the conditions and limitations of liability stated in this Agreement, Seller
shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company from all payments, which by final
judgments in such suits, may be assessed against the Company on account of such
alleged infringement and shall pay resulting settlements, costs (including
reasonable attorneys' fees) and damages finally awarded against the Company by a
court of law.

     b.   The Company agrees that if the Products become, or in Seller's opinion
are likely to become, the subject of such a claim, the Company will permit
Seller, at its option and expense, either to procure the right for the Company
to continue using such Products or to replace or modify same so that they become
non-infringing, and, if neither of the foregoing alternatives is available on
terms which are acceptable to Seller, the Company shall at the written request
of Seller, return the infringing or potentially infringing Products. The Company
shall receive a refund of the prorated undepreciated portion of the Purchase
Price actually paid by the Company to Seller for the returned portion of the
Products. The Purchase Price shall be depreciated over a five (5) year period.

     c.   Seller disclaims any and all liability for any claim of patent or
copyright infringement (i) based upon adherence to specifications, designs or
instructions furnished by the Company, (ii) based upon the combination,
operation or use of any Products supplied hereunder with products, software or
data not supplied by Seller, or (iii) based upon alteration of the Products or
modification of any Software made by any party other than Seller.

2.   SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

     2.1   Introduction
     The Spotlight Multibeam Antenna Platform (SMAP) brings enhanced performance
     to existing cellular technology. The system replaces the existing antenna
     components at a cell site with a high performance antenna array coupled to
     an RF switch matrix and control system. This upgrade provides a
     dramatically improved carrier-to-interference ratio (C/I) and is the basis
     for many other performance enhancements, such as improved audio quality,
     extended range and greater traffic capacity.

     2.2   General System Overview
     The SMAP provides the necessary hardware and software to allow the most
     appropriate narrow beam antennas (2 receive paths and 1 transmit path) to
     be connected to base station RCUs. The major subsystem components which
     make up the SpotLight Multibeam Antenna Platform (SMAP) including antennas,
     RF switch matrix, and controller are depicted in Figure 1.

1.   SCOPE

     Pursuant to the above-identified Agreement, Software will be delivered by
     Seller to Company for use with the Products according to the terms of the
     Agreement and this Exhibit. Company shall then become a licensee with
     respect to such Software.

2.   LICENSING GRANT

     2.1  Concurrent with execution of the Agreement, Seller grants to Company a
          revocable, non-exclusive and non-transferable license under Seller's
          applicable proprietary rights to use Software delivered to Company
          hereunder in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth
          herein.

     2.2  Company agrees to pay the Licensing Fees for the right to use the

          including, but not limited to, substituted products, or products not
          owned by Company, or products located at a location other than the
          site specified in the Order.

     3.3  The License granted to Company in Section 2 is personal and may not be
          transferred to another product or site without the written consent of
          Seller.

 
     3.4  To the extent specified in Exhibit A or an Amendment thereto and
          provided Company has paid any applicable licensing fees, Company shall
          have the right to use features in accordance with the terms of this
          Exhibit. Company acknowledges that the Software may contain therein
          several additional features which are each covered by separate
          licensing fees. Company agrees not to use, and the license
          specifically does not extend to, such additional features unless they
          are specified in Exhibit A or an amendment thereto and provided
          Company has paid the applicable licensing fees for such additional
          features.

     3.5  The Software is subject to laws protecting trade secrets, know-how,
          confidentiality and copyright.

     3.6  Company shall not translate, modify, adapt, decompile, disassemble, or
          reverse engineer the Software or any portion thereof.

     3.7  Unless otherwise expressly agreed by Seller, Company shall not permit
          its directors, officers, employees or any other person under its
          direct or indirect control, to write, develop, produce, sell, or
          license any software that performs the same functions as the Software
          by means directly attributable to access to the Software (e.g. reverse
          engineering or copying).

     3.8  Company shall not export the Software from the United States without
          the written permission of Seller. If written permission is granted for
          export of the Software, then Company shall comply with all U.S. laws
          and regulations for such exports and shall hold Seller harmless,
          including legal fees and expenses for any violation or attempted
          violation of the U.S. export laws.

4.   RIGHT TO COPY, PROTECTION AND SECURITY

     4.1  Software provided hereunder may be copied (for back-up purposes only)
          in whole or in part, in printed or machine-readable form for Company's
          internal use only, provided, however, that no more than two (2)
          printed copies and two (2) machine-readable copies shall be in
          existence at any one time without the prior written consent of Seller,
          other than copies resident in the Products.

     4.2  With reference to any copyright notice of Seller associated with
          Software, Company agrees to include the same on all copies it makes in
          whole or in part. Seller's copyright notice may appear in any of
          several forms, including machine-readable form. Use of a copyright
          notice on the Software does not imply that such has been published or
          otherwise made generally available to the public.

     4.3  Company agrees to keep confidential, in accordance with the terms of
          the Agreement, and not provide or otherwise make available in any form
          any Software or its contents, or any portion thereof, or any
          documentation pertaining to the Software, to any person other than
          employees of Company or Seller.

     4.4  Software, including features is the sole and exclusive property of
          Seller and no title or ownership rights to the Software or any of its
          parts, including documentation, is transferred to Company.

     4.5  Company acknowledges that it is the responsibility of Company to take
          all reasonable measures to safeguard Software and to prevent its
          unauthorized use or duplication.


 
5.   REMEDIES

     Company acknowledges that violation of the terms of this Exhibit or the
     Agreement shall cause Seller irreparable harm for which monetary damages
     may be inadequate, and Company agrees that Seller may seek temporary or
     permanent injunctive relief without the need to prove actual harm in order
     to protect Seller's interests.

6.   TERM

     Unless otherwise terminated pursuant to Section 7 herein, the term of the
     license granted pursuant to Section 2 herein shall be co-extensive with the
     term of any licensing and/or maintenance fees paid by Company to Seller
     pursuant to Exhibit A or an Amendment thereto.

7.   TERMINATION

     7.1  The license granted hereunder may be terminated by Company upon one
          (1) month's prior written notice.

     7.2  Seller may terminate the license granted hereunder if Company is in
          default of any of the terms and conditions of the Agreement or
          Exhibits, and such termination shall be effective if Company fails to
          correct such default within ten (10) days after written notice thereof
          by Seller. The provisions of Sections 4 and 5 herein shall survive
          termination of any such license.

     7.3  Within one (1) month after termination of the license granted
          hereunder, Company shall furnish to Seller a document certifying that
          through its best efforts and to the best of its knowledge, the
          original and all copies in whole or in part of all Software, in any
          form, including any copy in an updated work, have been returned to
          Seller or destroyed. With prior written consent from Seller, Company
          may retain one (1) copy for archival purposes only.

8.   RIGHTS OF THE PARTIES

     8.1  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to grant, either directly or
          by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, any license under any patents
          or patent applications of Seller; except that Company shall have a 
          non-exclusive, license under Seller's patents and patent applications
          to use, in Seller-supplied equipment only, Software supplied
          hereunder, when such license is implied or otherwise arises by
          operation of law by virtue of the purchase of such copies from Seller.

     8.2  Rights in programs or operating systems of third parties, if any, are
          further limited by their license agreements with such third parties,
          which agreements are hereby incorporated by reference thereto and made
          a part hereof as if fully set forth herein. Company agrees to abide
          thereby.

     8.3  During the term of the license granted pursuant to Section 2 herein
