Clearwire (and any entity under Clearwire's Control) shall fulfill and discharge
all of its requirements for the Services, or services of a similar nature, in
the Territory, in support of IP Telephony, through BCE Nexxia if Clearwire can
do so without violating its fiduciary duties to a third party and without
breaching any binding agreement with a third party, provided, however, that

this Section 2.2. If Clearwire determines that the potential for a violation of
Applicable Laws, fiduciary duties or agreements with third parties exists,
Clearwire shall provide BCE Nexxia with reasonable advance notice, prior to

Applicable Laws, fiduciary duties or agreements with third parties, setting

to be supplied under this Agreement shall be of a nature and quality
substantially equivalent to the services of a similar nature BCE Nexxia provides

of the Services supplied by Third Party Providers. In addition, nothing in this
Agreement shall be construed or interpreted as BCE Nexxia providing a warranty,
as it relates to sufficiency or adequacy of the delivery of VoIP Services to

Providers, BCE Nexxia will use commercially reasonable efforts to include in the
Dedicated Third Party Provider Agreements a provision to pass through to
Clearwire all warranties received by BCE Nexxia from such Third Party Providers.
Furthermore, if the Parties agree in writing after the date of this Agreement
that any specific Service Elements to be supplied under this Agreement are to be
of a lesser nature and quality than those provided by BCE Nexxia for its own
account, then the above mentioned warranty will only extend to such lesser
threshold. Subject to the foregoing limitations, BCE Nexxia also warrants that
the Services shall be provided in a good, careful, and professional manner, in
compliance with Applicable Law. Clearwire and BCE Nexxia will monitor industry
developments of quality and performance standards for services similar to the
Services and VoIP Services. Clearwire and BCE Nexxia agree that, in addition to
the warranties and performance standards stated elsewhere in this Agreement, it
is their intent and BCE Nexxia shall endeavor to achieve the result that the
Services will meet or exceed industry standards for quality and performance as
such standards are developed and as they may change over time.
BCE NEXXIA/CLEARWIRE MASTER SUPPLY AGREEMENT

2.4. NON-EXCLUSIVITY: Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed or
interpreted as limiting or restricting the rights of BCE Nexxia to promote,
market and sell any services of a nature substantially similar to the Services,
in the Territory or outside the Territory, to any Person, provided that BCE
Nexxia does so without using any Clearwire Enabling IP or any Service Elements
provided on a Dedicated basis paid for by Clearwire and without violating BCE
Nexxia's obligations under Section 12.
2.5 ACCESS BCE NEXXIA IS/IT SYSTEMS AND TELECOM SYSTEMS: During the Term, as
recipient of the Services, Clearwire shall, subject to any restrictions set
forth in this Agreement, and to the extent practicable, be afforded access and
use of BCE Nexxia IS/IT Systems and Telecom Systems, provided that the use or
access to BCE Nexxia IS/IT Systems and Telecom Systems shall not constitute a
transfer or assignment to Clearwire of any rights, property rights or other
form of entitlements or beneficial interest, including any Intellectual Property
Right. The compensation from Clearwire to BCE Nexxia for Clearwire's access to
and use of BCE Nexxia IS/IT Systems and Telecom Systems is included as part of
the Charges.
2.6 DEDICATED THIRD PARTY PROVIDER AGREEMENTS: Subject to Section 2.7, unless
otherwise required by Clearwire from time to time in its discretion with respect
to any particular Service Element (which may be provided by Clearwire, its
contractors or agents as provided in this Agreement), BCE Nexxia shall identify
and recommend Third Party Providers in order to obtain the Service Elements, on
a Dedicated basis, and to negotiate the terms and conditions of all agreements
in such respect with Third Party Providers (the "DEDICATED THIRD PARTY PROVIDERS
AGREEMENTS"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Clearwire shall approve or reject
Third Party Providers recommended by BCE Nexxia, through the Project Management
Office, for Dedicated Third Party Provider Agreements, provided, however, that
Clearwire agrees that [***] is an approved Third Party Provider for purposes of
VoIP softswitch, VoIP application systems, PSTN gateways and other related VoIP
telecom services equipment, further provided that Clearwire acknowledges that
BCE Nexxia may convert and migrate to an alternative Third Party Provider for
voicemail systems application. Unless doing so would result in Clearwire having
to pay higher Charges than those that would have been payable had a Dedicated
Third Party Provider Agreement been entered into with BCE Nexxia as principal,
Clearwire shall execute such Dedicated Third Party Provider Agreements as
principal and shall be directly liable to the Third Party Provider for all
obligations under such Dedicated Third Party Provider Agreement and will be
entitled to benefit from all rights and recourses thereunder. Otherwise, such
Dedicated Third Party Provider Agreement will be executed by BCE Nexxia as
principal and Clearwire will assume all costs and expenses thereunder as part of
the Charges. Clearwire agrees that, for any Dedicated Third Party Provider
Agreement entered into by BCE Nexxia as principal, BCE Nexxia shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the right to assign such Dedicated
Third Party Provider Agreements to Clearwire upon Clearwire's request, provided
that Clearwire shall indemnify and hold BCE Nexxia harmless with respect to any
and all obligations or liabilities which arise following the date of an
assignment of a Dedicated Third Party Provider Agreement and shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a release of all liabilities BCE
Nexxia may have thereunder other than those relating to a BCE Nexxia breach. All
Third Party Provider Agreements in which Clearwire is principal shall include
provisions that identify BCE Nexxia as Clearwire's agent and give to BCE Nexxia
the right as agent to control, at Clearwire's expense,
[*** Confidential Treatment Requested]
BCE NEXXIA/CLEARWIRE MASTER SUPPLY AGREEMENT
CONFIDENTIAL
15
all rights to enforce the terms and conditions thereof. Provided BCE Nexxia
exercises its enforcement rights under any such Dedicated Third Party Provider
Agreement, whether as principal or as Clearwire's agent, as the case may be, BCE
Nexxia shall be deemed to have fulfilled all of its obligations and duties to
enforce such Dedicated Third Party Provider Agreements and to provide Services
in accordance with the performance standards and obligations set forth in
Section 2.3 and under this Section 2.6 to the extent of the adverse impact
resulting from the breach of such Dedicated Third Party Provider Agreements.
BCE Nexxia shall (unless otherwise requested by Clearwire in its sole discretion
from time to time), on and from the Effective date, be responsible for managing
on behalf of Clearwire Third Party Providers under the Dedicated Third Party
Provider Agreements. To that end, where BCE Nexxia is acting either as an agent
of Clearwire or as principal under a Dedicated Third Party Provider Agreement,
BCE Nexxia shall conduct itself in such a manner and use commercially reasonable
efforts to reduce the financial responsibility and liabilities of Clearwire
under the applicable Dedicated Third Party Provider Agreements. For greater
certainty, and provided that BCE Nexxia complies with the obligations set out in
this Section 2.6, BCE Nexxia shall not be liable to Clearwire, under any
circumstances, for the performance or non-performance of Third Party Providers
pursuant to Dedicated Third Party Provider Agreements.
2.7 IDEM: Prior to the execution of any Dedicated Third Party Agreements, unless
otherwise directed by Clearwire, and through the Project Management Office, BCE
Nexxia shall:
(a) Consult with Clearwire during the course of the negotiations, and
obtain written approval from Clearwire as provided in Section 2.6;
and
(b) make commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate arrangements that
shall provide Clearwire access to such Third Party Providers'
services on commercially advantageous terms, including appropriate
service level agreements and pricing parameters.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject to the limitation
on its liability set forth in Section 2.6, BCE Nexxia shall keep Clearwire
informed about performance issues or alleged breaches under any Dedicated Third
Party Provider Agreements, and shall undertake either as principal or as agent
for Clearwire such enforcement actions as may be directed by Clearwire from time
to time (including settlement of the dispute), provided that the action
requested by Clearwire does not violate Applicable Law, that Clearwire agrees to
reimburse BCE Nexxia for its reasonable, out-of-pocket costs in such enforcement
action, and that when acting upon such instructions BCE Nexxia is relieved of
its warranty obligations set forth in Section 2.3 to the extent impacted by such
instructions. Clearwire shall not take any action, or cause any action to be
taken, which would impair or jeopardize the delivery of services pursuant to the
Dedicated Third Party Provider Agreements.
2.8 TAKE BACK OF SERVICE ELEMENTS: Clearwire may, from time to time, request BCE
Nexxia to transfer or otherwise assign the accountability and responsibility for
the Service Elements provided on a Dedicated basis by Third Party Providers and
identified in Schedule 5 (the "TAKE BACK SERVICE ELEMENTS"), and BCE Nexxia
shall promptly accomplish such transfer or
BCE NEXXIA/CLEARWIRE MASTER SUPPLY AGREEMENT
CONFIDENTIAL
16
assignment. Such requests shall be deemed Change Communications hereunder and
shall be managed and administered by the Parties pursuant to Section 7 hereof.
For greater certainty, Clearwire hereby acknowledges that in assuming
accountability and responsibility for the delivery of Service Elements, which
were previously provided by BCE Nexxia, BCE Nexxia's ability to comply with the
obligation set out in Section 2.3 and Section 2.6 may be impacted and BCE Nexxia
shall be released from such obligation to the extent BCE Nexxia's compliance is
adversely affected by such transfer or assignment.
2.9 TITLE: Clearwire and BCE Nexxia agree that Clearwire shall own all rights to
equipment and third party Software, that are paid for by Clearwire and provided
on a Dedicated basis, even if the procurement was arranged and managed by BCE
Nexxia and even if such property is located on the premises of BCE Nexxia or a
Third Party Provider. BCE Nexxia shall deliver to Clearwire, at Clearwire's
request from time to time, bills of sale and other documents evidencing
Clearwire's ownership or other interests under this Agreement.
2.10 COOPERATION: The Parties shall cooperate with each other, including
providing information, approvals and acceptances, and making available
management decisions, as reasonably required by either Party so that it may
accomplish its obligations and responsibilities under this Agreement.
2.11 FULFILLMENT OF OBLIGATIONS: In order to give effect to this Agreement each
Party shall be required to perform its respective obligations under this
Agreement in a manner which is timely and reasonably complete. The Parties
acknowledge that any failure to perform by one Party in this respect may
negatively impact the other Party's ability to perform its own obligations.
2.12 CONDUCT OF BUSINESS: Each Party shall comply with all Applicable Laws and
shall conduct its business in a professional, competent and ethical manner so as
to enhance the business, reputation and goodwill associated with the Services
and VoIP Services.
2.13 OTHER OBLIGATIONS OF CLEARWIRE:
(a) CLEARWIRE PROVIDED EQUIPMENT OR SOFTWARE: Clearwire shall be
responsible for any equipment or Software which it provides, for
the supply, installation and maintenance of such equipment at sites
designated by Clearwire, and for ensuring that such equipment or
Software is (i) installed and maintained according to the

with respect to interoperability for the purpose of providing the
Services, and (ii) compatible with, and does not interfere with, the
Services; and(iii) in compliance with all Applicable Laws;

17
(c) FORECASTS: Clearwire shall endeavor to provide BCE Nexxia with
detailed forecast information, including demand for VoIP Service, as
part of the Quarterly Planning Documents, and network capacity
requirements, to assist BCE Nexxia with capacity and other Services
planning. BCE Nexxia acknowledges that Clearwire is a start-up
business, with limited experience forecasting usage of VoIP Service,
and that forecasts provided by Clearwire from time to time under
this Section or otherwise might be materially in error. Clearwire
acknowledges that the lack of accurate forecasts (if such forecasts
are materially in error) may impact BCE Nexxia's ability to
efficiently and effectively deliver the Services in the most cost
effective manner. The Parties acknowledge that such forecasts merely
provide an estimate of future requirements and do not reflect or
create any commitments or obligations which are binding on either
Party;
(d) MAINTENANCE INTERRUPTIONS: Clearwire shall, as reasonably required
by and in the reasonable discretion of BCE Nexxia, permit BCE Nexxia
to interrupt the Services from time to time in order to provide
maintenance in respect of the Services, on reasonable notice to
Clearwire;
(e) OUT OF TERRITORY OBLIGATION: Where Clearwire and/or any of its
Affiliates, may do so without violation of any Applicable Laws,
fiduciary duties or agreements with third parties, Clearwire and/or
its Affiliates shall consider BCE Nexxia as its preferred supplier
for the provision of services of a nature substantially similar to
the Services outside of the Territory, and to that end Clearwire and
its Affiliates shall, subject to the qualifications stated above in
this paragraph, provide BCE Nexxia with a ROFP pursuant mutatis
mutandis to Section 6.2 hereof, in all instances where Clearwire, or
any of its Affiliates, wishes to deploy VoIP services similar to the
VoIP Services outside of the Territory. If Clearwire had determined
that the potential for a violation of Applicable Laws, fiduciary
duties or agreements with third parties exists, Clearwire shall
provide BCE Nexxia with reasonable advance notice, prior to relying
on the exception provided in this Section 2.13 for potential
violation of Applicable Laws, fiduciary duties or agreements with
third parties, setting forth in sufficient detail the nature of the
potential violation in an effort to allow consultation between
Clearwire and BCE Nexxia regarding Clearwire's assessment of the
applicability of such exception. If it disagrees with Clearwire's
determination BCE Nexxia shall be entitled to invoke the dispute
resolution process provided in Section 17.1; provided, however,
specific performance shall not be a remedy available to BCE Nexxia.
In addition, Clearwire shall exercise reasonable efforts to generate
ROFP opportunities for BCE Nexxia for services substantially similar
in nature to the Services in all instances where Clearwire has an
equity or debt interest or otherwise has contracted arrangements
with an entity outside the Territory that is not an Affiliate and
wishes to deploy VoIP services similar in nature to the VoIP
Services outside of the Territory;
BCE NEXXIA/CLEARWIRE MASTER SUPPLY AGREEMENT

(f) USAGE OF THE SERVICES: Clearwire shall take commercially reasonable
steps to ensure that its End Users do not: (i) use the VoIP Services
in such a manner that causes interference, or tampers with another

Services in a manner that violates the Acceptable Use Policy; or
(Hi) violate Applicable Laws;
(g) TAMPERING WITH SERVICES: Clearwire, its agents, employees or
representatives, shall not permit or assist others to use the

Nexxia's network, or access thereto by other Persons; or (ii) for
any purpose or in any manner directly or indirectly in violation of
Applicable Laws;
(h) IMMEDIATE SUSPENSION OF SPECIFIC SERVICES AS A RESULT OF END-USER
ACTIONS: Clearwire shall include, as part of its End User
agreements, provisions which include an acceptable use policy
containing terms that are substantially similar to the terms of the
Acceptable Use Policy. In addition, Clearwire shall ensure that the
End User agreements include a provision disclaiming liability for
underlying service providers or suppliers (including BCE Nexxia) and
to the extent that any such policy or agreement includes
indemnification from a Clearwire End User, BCE Nexxia, in its
capacity as a service provider or supplier, shall be a beneficiary
thereof. Clearwire shall require each Clearwire End User accessing
the VoIP Services to agree to the terms set forth in an acceptable
use policy as contemplated above. Clearwire shall determine in its
sole discretion how the acceptable use policy will be presented to
its End Users, provided that such presentation shall be in such
manner as to be enforceable under the terms of the End User
agreement. The Parties shall establish within sixty (60) days from
the Effective Date a process respecting discontinuance of VoIP
Services to any particular End User that is identified by BCE Nexxia
or Clearwire as having violated the applicable acceptable use
policy. If the Parties are unable to agree on the foregoing process
respecting discontinuance of VoIP Services, BCE Nexxia shall have
the right, acting reasonably, to discontinue or suspend provision of
the Services, solely with respect to the activities of an End User
which gives rise to a breach of the Acceptable Use Policy and only
after Providing Clearwire with reasonable advance notice in the
circumstances;
(i) CLEARWIRE AFFILIATES: Clearwire shall cause all Persons which
subsequently become Affiliates and which provide VoIP Services in
the Territory to become parties to this Agreement, so long as doing
so is not in violation of Applicable Laws, fiduciary duties or
agreements with third parties. If Clearwire has determined that the
potential for a violation of Applicable Laws, fiduciary duties or
agreements with third parties exists, Clearwire shall provide BCE
Nexxia with reasonable advance notice, prior to relying on the
exception provided in this Section 2.13 for potential violation of
Applicable Laws, fiduciary duties or agreements with third parties
setting forth in sufficient detail the nature of the potential
violation in an effort to allow consultation between Clearwire and
BCE Nexxia regarding Clearwire's assessment of the applicability of
such exception.

(c) PAYMENTS:
(i) Except to the extent disputed in good faith pursuant to Section
3.1(d), Clearwire shall pay each invoice in Canadian or U.S.
currency (as specified in the invoice) within thirty (30) days from
the date of its receipt, subject to a late payment charge at the
rate specified in such invoices together with any applicable
Impositions. The interest rate, which rate may vary from time to
time but shall not exceed 1.5% per month (19.56% per year), shall be
calculated from the date an invoice is received, if not paid within
the prescribed period.
(ii) Notwithstanding Section 3.1(b)(i) and subject to the notice
requirements set forth below, BCE Nexxia does not have any
obligation to continue to provide particular Service Elements that
are provided by Third Party Providers if BCE Nexxia's total
financial exposure arising from [***] and commitments made for the
benefit of Clearwire with respect to the Third Party Providers of
such particular Service Elements in the applicable Third Party
Provider Agreements, exceeds [***] Conversion from Canadian to U.S.
funds in making this calculation are to be based upon interbank
rates published in the Wall Street Journal on the day that the test
is applied, or the most recent, prior publication day. BCE Nexxia
shall provide Clearwire with regular written reports reflecting the
calculation of the amount of BCE Nexxia's financial exposure. Ten
(10) Business Days prior to the suspension of Services, BCE Nexxia
shall provide Clearwire with written notice that its financial
exposure exceeds [***] during which time Clearwire may provide BCE

entitled to an additional fee during the Term of this Agreement, calculated and
payable as follows:
[*** Confidential Treatment Requested]
BCE NEXXIA/CLEARWIRE MASTER SUPPLY AGREEMENT
CONFIDENTIAL
23
(a) DETERMINATION OF FEE:
(i) Increase in the Number of End Users: At the end of each calendar
quarter, Clearwire shall promptly, but no later than thirty (30)
days following the end of such quarter, determine the number of
Clearwire End Users as of such date who have paid Clearwire for
three (3) months of VoIP Services where VoIP Services are identified
as a separate line item or charge or, if not identified as a
separate line item or charge, where Clearwire has been paid for
three (3) months of any services comprised at least in part of VoIP
Services. The increase, if any, in the number of End Users over the
highest number of End Users for any calendar quarter preceding such
calendar quarter (the "NEW END USERS") shall be multiplied by
applicable New End User Payment (as defined below) to determine the
amount due to BCE Nexxia and payable as provided below. The "NEW END
USER PAYMENT" shall be equal to [***] until such time as the
aggregate total of all of Clearwire's End Users equals [***] at
which time the amount shall be reduced, on a going forward basis, to
[***] if there are no New End Users for a given calendar quarter or
there is a decrease in the number of Clearwire's End Users for a
given calendar quarter, then no fee shall be payable under this
Section 3.2(a)(i) for such calendar quarter. For purposes of the
calculation of New End Users, only End Users of VoIP Services that
are supported by BCE Nexxia through the arrangement and supply of
the Services as provided herein shall be included.
(ii) ADDITIONAL Lines: An End User may purchase additional service
from Clearwire that enables a separate and distinct simultaneous
conversation ("ADDITIONAL LINES"), as distinguished from multiple
numbers. At the end of each calendar quarter, Clearwire shall
promptly, but no later than thirty (30) days following the end of
such quarter, determine the number of Additional Lines for each
Clearwire End User as of such date who have paid Clearwire for three
(3) months of Additional Lines where Additional Lines are identified
as a separate line item or charge or, if not identified as a
separate line item or charge, where Clearwire has been paid for
three (3) months of any services comprised at least in part of
Additional Lines. The increase, if any, in the number of Additional
Lines over the highest number of Additional Lines for any calendar
quarter preceding such calendar quarter (the "NEW ADDITIONAL LINES")
shall be multiplied by Clearwire's average revenue per New
Additional Line during such quarter, taking into account for
purposes of determining such average only those Additional Lines for
which Clearwire charges its End Users, and payable as provided
below. If there are no New Additional Lines for a given calendar
quarter or there is a decrease in the number of Additional Lines for
a given calendar quarter, then no fee shall be payable under this
Section 3.2(a)(ii) for such calendar quarter. For purposes of the
calculation of this portion of the additional fee, only Additional
Lines of End Users of VoIP Services that are supported by BCE Nexxia
through the arrangement and supply of the Services as provided
herein shall be included.
(b) CHALLENGE: BCE Nexxia may challenge Clearwire's New End User
calculation
[*** Confidential Treatment Requested]
BCE NEXXIA/CLEARWIRE MASTER SUPPLY AGREEMENT
CONFIDENTIAL
24
pursuant to Section 3.2 (a), if BCE Nexxia, acting in good faith,
believes that Clearwire's calculation is in error, in which case
Clearwire shall deliver to BCE Nexxia an officer's certificate
attesting to the accuracy of the challenged number of New End Users
and providing reasonably detailed explanation and support for such
calculation. If BCE Nexxia still challenges the number of New End
Users for the purpose of Section 3.2(a), either Party may submit the
matter to the Dispute resolution process in Section 17, in which
event no payment shall be due with respect to the disputed
calculation until resolution of the Dispute in accordance with
Section 17. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Clearwire shall be
required to issue Class A Shares or make cash payment, pursuant to
Section 3.2(c), with respect to any undisputed New End User.
(c) PAYMENT IN EQUITY OR CASH. If Clearwire has closed a round of equity
financing in which shares of Clearwire's Class A common stock
("CLASS A SHARES") or any other equity securities convertible into
Class A Shares ("CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES") were sold to Persons other
than current shareholders of Clearwire exercising conversion rights
previously granted (provided that any sale to any Affiliate of
Clearwire shall be for an amount of at least Ten Million Dollars
($10,000,000) in order to be an admissible round of equity financing
under this Section 3.2), within ninety (90) days prior to the end of
the applicable calendar quarter, the amount, if any, due to BCE
Nexxia for such calendar quarter under Section 3.2(a) shall be paid
by the issuance to BCE Nexxia Corporation or Bell Canada (as
designated by BCE Nexxia) by Clearwire of additional Class A Shares.
The number of Class A Shares pursuant to Section 3.2(a) to be issued
shall be calculated by dividing the total amount due to BCE Nexxia
for such calendar quarter by the price per share paid for any Class
A Shares (or the conversion price at the time of issuance of any
such Convertible Securities, as applicable) by such Persons in such
equity financing. If no such round of equity financing has been
closed within such ninety (90) day period, Clearwire shall, at its
option, either pay BCE Nexxia Corporation or Bell Canada (as
designated by BCE Nexxia) the amount due in cash or by the issuance
to BCE Nexxia Corporation or Bell Canada (as designated by BCE
Nexxia) of Class A Shares based upon the price per share paid for
any Class A Shares (or the conversion price at the time of issuance
of any such Convertible Securities, as applicable) in the most
recently closed round of equity financing regardless of when such
round of equity financing closed (giving effect to any stock split,
stock dividend, reserve stock split, recapitalization,
reorganization or other distribution). In any case, the Class A
Shares shall be issued or the cash payment made within fifteen (15)
days following the date that Clearwire confirms the number of New
End Users. If the fee payable in respect of New End Users receiving
Clearwire's VoIP Services through a reseller becomes unreasonable in
light of Clearwire's arrangements with such reseller in the
reasonable determination of the Parties, then the Parties will
negotiate in good faith appropriate changes to the amount payable to
BCE Nexxia for each such New End User under this Section 3.2. In the
event of a termination of this Agreement for any reason, other than
as a result of a Material Breach by BCE Nexxia, a determination of
the number of New End Users at the date of
BCE NEXXIA/CLEARWIRE MASTER SUPPLY AGREEMENT
CONFIDENTIAL
25
termination (following, for greater certainty, the Transition

other to enable each to more accurately determine the proper
treatment of applicable Impositions to the Services provided

intervals, a completed and executed Form, W-8BEN, Certificate of
foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax

withholding taxes.
(e) REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Each of BCE Nexxia Corporation and
Bell Canada represents and warrants to Clearwire that the following
statements are true and correct on the Effective Date and will be
true and correct on the date of issuance of any Class A Shares under
this Section 3.2:
(i) It is an "accredited investor" as that term is defined in Rule

Securities for the account or benefit of any U.S. Person.
(ii) The Class A Shares to be acquired under this Section 3.2 (the

purpose only, for its own account and not with the view to any
resale or distribution thereof, and it is not participating,
directly or indirectly, in an underwriting of such Securities, and
will not take, or cause to be taken, any action that would cause it
to be deemed an "underwriter" of such Securities as defined in
Section 2(11) of the Securities Act.
(iii) It acknowledges that is has been offered an opportunity to ask
questions of, and received answers from, Clearwire Corporation
concerning Clearwire Corporation and its proposed investments, and

Memorandum, dated January 10, 2005, the exhibits thereto and any
other documents which may have been made available upon request

Nexxia Corporation and Bell Canada understands that the Securities

provisions of Regulation S under the Securities Act, (ii) pursuant
to an effective registration under the Securities Act and
qualification under any applicable state securities laws, or (iii)
pursuant to an available exemption from such registration and

Act. Each of BCE Nexxia Corporation and Bell Canada acknowledge that
Clearwire Corporation has no obligation to register or qualify the
Securities for resale, except as set forth in that certain
Registration Rights Agreement between Clearwire and certain of its
stockholders, dated March 16, 2004, and that Clearwire Corporation

the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Securities,
and on requirements relating to Clearwire Corporation which are
outside of its control, and which Clearwire Corporation is under no
obligation to satisfy and may not be able to satisfy. Each of BCE
Nexxia Corporation and Bell Canada also acknowledges that the

SECTION 4
TERM AND TERMINATION
4.1 TERM: The term and conditions of this Agreement shall remain in effect from
the Effective Date until terminated in accordance herewith (the "TERM");
provided, however, either Party may terminate this Agreement without cause, upon
twelve (12) months prior written notice, which termination notice can be served
by either Party to the other at any time beginning on October 1, 2007 provided
however that BCE Nexxia will be entitled to serve such termination notice at any
time following a Change of Control of Clearwire LLC or Clearwire Corporation in
favor of a Major Provider or a Canadian Competitor, and that Clearwire will be
entitled to serve such termination notice at any time following a Change of
Control of BCE Nexxia, BCE Inc. or Bell Canada in favor of a Major Provider. A
party that receives a notice of a proposed Change of Control (the "NON-CHANGING
PARTY") in accordance with this Section 4.1 shall respond within sixty days of
receipt of such notice to inform the other Party as to the Non-Changing Party's
election regarding the exercise of its termination rights under this section
4.1. A failure of a Non-Changing Party to respond within such sixty day period
shall constitute a decision by the Non-Changing Party not to terminate this
Agreement as provided in this Section 4.1 as a result of such Change of Control.
For greater certainty and for the purpose of this Agreement, the Term shall also
be deemed to include any Termination Transition Period as contemplated by this
Agreement except as otherwise provided in this Agreement.
4.2 TERMINATION FOR CAUSE:
(a) Either Party (the "NON-DEFAULTING PARTY") may elect to terminate, in
whole or in part, without liability, this Agreement upon the other
Party's (the "DEFAULTING PARTY") failure to cure a curable Material
Breach hereunder within thirty (30) days after delivery of written
notice thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Material
Breach by the Defaulting Party reasonably requires more than thirty
(30) days to cure, the Defaulting Party shall be deemed in
compliance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement, provided
that the
[*** Confidential Treatment Requested]
BCE NEXXIA/CLEARWIRE MASTER SUPPLY AGREEMENT
CONFIDENTIAL
29
action taken to cure the Material Breach is promptly commenced upon
receipt by the Defaulting Party of a notice of Material Breach, and
is thereafter continuously prosecuted with due diligence to
completion and is completed within a reasonable period of time, and
provided that the Defaulting Party keeps the Non-Defaulting Party
well informed at all times of its progress in curing the
non-compliance. The failure by Clearwire to pay any undisputed
amounts due or issue any of the equity interests under Section 3
within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of non-payment,
without any requirement for any additional notice, shall constitute
a Material Breach for which BCE Nexxia may terminate this Agreement.
(b) Either Party (the "TERMINATING PARTY") may elect to terminate this
Agreement with no liability, if the other party, or such other
Party's parent becomes Financially Uncertain (the "AT RISK PARTY").
For the purpose of this Section a Party, or its parent, shall be
considered "Financially Uncertain" if it:
(i) generally fails to pay, or admits in writing its inability to
pay, material debts when they become due, and fails to pay
such debts within thirty (30) days following its receipt of
notice from any other entity that payment is past due;
(ii) subject to any writ, judgement, warrant of attachment,
execution, or similar process issued or levied against a
substantial part of its property, assets, or business; or
(iii) takes or has taken or has instituted against it any action or
proceeding whether voluntary or involuntary which has an
object or may result in the bankruptcy or winding up or
reorganization of a Party, or a Party's parent other than a
voluntary winding up or reorganization by members for the
purpose of a reconstruction or amalgamation, or is placed
under official management or enters into a compromise or other
arrangement with its creditors or any class of them or an
administrator, trustee, receiver, manager, or similar person
is appointed to carry on its business or to take control or
possession of any of its assets for the benefit of its
creditors or any of them.
The At Risk Party shall notify the Terminating Party of the
occurrence of any event specified above within three (3) Business
Days, or within a reasonable period thereafter, of their receipt of
notice of, or knowledge of, any occurrence of such an event, or
alternatively provide confirmation in writing within three (3)
Business Days, or within a reasonable period thereafter, upon
request from the Terminating Party, whether or not any of the above
event has occurred. In addition, if a proceeding is commenced under
any provision of the United States Bankruptcy Code, voluntary of
involuntary, by or against a Party or a Party's parent, and this
Agreement has not been terminated, the other Party may file a
request with the Bankruptcy Court to have the court set a date
within sixty (60)
BCE NEXXIA/CLEARWIRE MASTER SUPPLY AGREEMENT
CONFIDENTIAL
30
days after the commencement of the case, by which the debtor shall
assume or reject this Agreement, and the debtor shall cooperate and
take whatever steps are necessary to assume or reject such contracts
by such date.
A Party shall not be considered an At Risk Party under the foregoing
descriptions if an involuntary bankruptcy procedure is instituted
against that Party by any third party and the Party contests the
involuntary bankruptcy procedure in good faith and within a
reasonable period of time. A Party shall not be considered an At
Risk Party under the foregoing descriptions if a writ, warrant of
attachment, execution, or similar process is issued or levied
against a substantial part of the Party's property, assets or
business as a result of an involuntary bankruptcy procedure filed by
any third party and the Party contests the involuntary bankruptcy
procedure in good faith and within a reasonable period of time.
(c) In the event the Parties are unable to reach an agreement on an
appropriate manner for addressing whether (each of the following a
"TERMINATION DISPUTE"):
(i) a Party is Financially Uncertain pursuant to Section 4.2(b);
(ii) a Material Breach has occurred;
(iii) a Material Breach is cured as contemplated in
Section 4.2(a); or
(iv) a Material Breach is not capable of being remedied,
either Party may request in writing that such matter be referred to the dispute
resolution mechanism set out in Section 17 for an appropriate resolution.
4.3 TERMINATION TRANSITION ASSISTANCE: In the event of a termination for
convenience or for cause by either BCE Nexxia or Clearwire pursuant to Section
4.1, BCE Nexxia shall provide Termination Transition Assistance accordance with
the provisions hereof, including the preparation of one or more plans in respect
thereof which shall include, without limitation, the transfer of possession or
assignment of any Take Back Service Elements pursuant to Section 2.8. The
Parties shall act in good faith and reasonably and shall develop and implement
transition plan(s); with the intent to reduce the likelihood of any material
adverse impact to End Users, including suspension of VoIP Services to End Users
or degradation in the Services. For greater certainty, BCE Nexxia shall not be
required and Clearwire shall not be authorized, as part of Termination
Transition Assistance, to respectively provide or seek the removal of any BCE
Nexxia Deployed IP when such BCE Nexxia Deployed IP was deployed in Canada prior
to the commencement of a Termination Transition Period.
4.4 TERMINATION FOR CONVENIENCE - CHARGES FOR TRANSITION: In the event of a
termination by Clearwire for convenience pursuant to Section 4.1, and in

compensate and indemnify BCE Nexxia for any BCE Nexxia Out-of-Pocket Termination
Costs other than any Contract Termination Costs that result from BCE Nexxia's
breach of an agreement with a Third Party Provider, where such breach has not
been caused by or as a result of the termination of this Agreement by Clearwire
pursuant to this Section 4.4.
4.5 BCE NEXXIA TERMINATION - CHARGES FOR TRANSITION: In the event of a
termination by Clearwire for cause pursuant to Section 4.2, or a termination by
BCE Nexxia for convenience pursuant to Section 4.1, BCE Nexxia shall provide,
during a Termination Transition Period, Termination Transition Assistance in
accordance with Section 4.3. For greater certainty nothing herein shall be
construed as releasing Clearwire, during the Termination Transition Period, from
the obligation to pay to BCE Nexxia the Charges associated with the provision of
the Services, as contemplated in Section 3.1 and the payment of any fees
pursuant to Section 3.2, provided that Clearwire shall not be required to make
any payment to BCE Nexxia with respect to BCE Nexxia Out-of-Pocket Termination
Costs (other than Contract Termination Costs associated with Dedicated Third
Party Provider Agreements) and that if Clearwire terminates this Agreement for
cause, Clearwire shall not be required to pay any fees pursuant to Section 3.2
for any period after termination of this Agreement.
4.6 CLEARWIRE TERMINATION FOR CAUSE - TERMINATION COSTS: In the event of a
termination by BCE Nexxia for cause pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof, provided
that Clearwire agrees to pay in advance all Charges incurred by BCE Nexxia in
the Termination Transition Assistance Period, BCE Nexxia shall provide, during a
Termination Transition Period, Termination Transition Assistance in accordance

the supply of Services and any additional Fees pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof,
up to and including the actual date of termination of this Agreement, and shall
compensate and indemnify BCE Nexxia for any BCE Nexxia Out-of-Pocket Termination
Costs other than any Contract Termination Costs that result from BCE Nexxia's
breach of an agreement with a Third Parry Provider.
4.7. CONSEQUENCES OF TERMINATION: Upon the termination (on the date specified in
a notice of termination or otherwise herein provided for) and except as
otherwise set forth herein or as otherwise agreed to for the Termination
Transition Period:
(a) each Party shall reconvey, relinquish and release to the other Party

this Agreement with respect to Joint Inventions;
(b) each Party shall cease using Confidential Information and
Intellectual Property of the other Party. All licenses to each

termination of this Agreement, a world wide, non-exclusive and fully
paid license to Inventions developed jointly by employees of
Clearwire and BCE Nexxia while engaged in work pursuant to this
Agreement, provided that such Inventions (i) are integrated into
Clearwire Products that exist as of the date of

15.1 No modification of or amendment to this Agreement shall be valid or binding
unless set forth in writing and duly executed by each of the Parties.
SECTION 16
COSTS
16.1 Each of the Parties shall be responsible for all of its own costs and
expenses incurred in the course of conducting due diligence and negotiating and
preparing the documentation contemplated by this Agreement and in attending
meetings of the Executive Operating Committee, the Project Management Office or
such other meetings as are contemplated in this Agreement.
SECTION 17
DISPUTES
17.1 If a dispute, claim, question or difference between the Parties (a
"DISPUTE") arises with respect to this Agreement or the Parties' performance,
enforcement or breach, the Parties shall use their best reasonable efforts to
settle the Dispute and the representative of each Party on the Project
Management Office, or other designated managers of each Party, shall consult and
negotiate with each other for at least ten (10) Business Days, or such other
longer period of time the Parties may agree, in good faith and understanding of
their mutual interests, in an attempt to reach a just and equitable solution
satisfactory to all Parties, prior to escalating any such Dispute to the
Executive Operating Committee.
17.2 If the Dispute remains unresolved by the Executive Operating Committee
after a period of fifteen (15) Business Days, or such longer period of time the
Parties may agree, the Dispute shall
BCE NEXXIA/CLEARWIRE MASTER SUPPLY AGREEMENT
CONFIDENTIAL
49
be escalated to a senior executive (a direct report to the CEO) of each Party
and such senior executive shall have thirty (30) days, or such longer period as
the Parties may agree, to resolve the Dispute.
17.3 If a settlement cannot be reached at senior executive level pursuant to
Section 17.2, a Party may provide written notice to the other Party (a "NOTICE
TO ARBITRATE") and may refer the Dispute to binding arbitration to be held in
accordance with the provisions of rules of the American Arbitration Association.
The Dispute will be finally settled by the arbitration from which there shall be
no appeal. The arbitration shall be heard by a single arbitrator to be agreed by
the Parties and, failing such agreement, each Party will appoint one arbitrator
and the two arbitrators will mutually select a third one. The Notice to
Arbitrate shall set out a concise description of the Dispute to be submitted to
arbitration and shall be delivered to the other Party. The arbitration shall
take place in New York, New York. The language to be used in the arbitration
shall be English. Nothing in this section precludes a Party from seeking interim
relief by way of an injunction (mandatory or otherwise) or other interim
equitable relief in the courts located in New York, New York in connection with
this Agreement. Judgment of the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered
in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
17.4 Notwithstanding Section 17.1 and 17.2 hereof, where a Dispute involves a
matter that requires resolution or relief urgently and where there are
reasonable grounds to believe a delay in obtaining such resolution or relief
would cause a Party significant harm that would not practically be compensable
by damages alone (an "URGENT DISPUTE"), that Party may submit the Urgent Dispute
for arbitration in accordance with Section 17.3 hereof at any time and without
having first attempted to resolve the Urgent Dispute in accordance with the
escalation process set forth herein.
17.5 Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 17 shall restrict
either Party from:
(a) seeking injunctive relief, including, but not limited to a temporary
restraining order against the other Party for alleged breaches of
this Agreement; and
(b) taking formal action relating to proprietary rights, including
Intellectual Property Rights and confidentiality.
SECTION 18
FORCE MAJEURE
18.1: If a Party's performance of this Agreement or any obligation (other than
the obligation to make payments for Services rendered) hereunder is prevented,
restricted or interfered with by causes beyond its reasonable control, (and
where such cause could not have been avoided by taking reasonable precautions,
including precautions taken by BCE Nexxia with respect to its own network and
services it provides to its customers), including, but not limited to, acts of
God, fire, explosion, vandalism, power grid outages (beyond any required battery
back-up or generator capacity), storm or other similar occurrence including rain
fade or other atmospheric conditions, any law, order, regulation, direction,
action or requirement of any governmental authority or national, provincial,
state or local governments, or of any department, agency, commission,

50
court, bureau, corporation or other instrumentality of any one or more of said
governments, or of any civil or military authority, or by national emergencies,
insurrections, riots, wars, acts of terrorism, strikes, lockouts or work
stoppages or other labor difficulties, supplier failures, shortages, breaches or
delays, then the Party affected by such force majeure event (the "AFFECTED
PARTY") shall be excused from such performance on a day-to-day basis to the
extent of such prevention, restriction or interference. The Affected Party shall
make commercially reasonable efforts under the circumstances to avoid and remove
such causes of non-performance and shall proceed to perform with reasonable
dispatch whenever such causes cease. If an event giving rise to force majeure
should continue for a period of three (3) months, the Party which is not subject
to that force majeure event shall have the right to terminate this Agreement.
SECTION 19
GENERAL PROVISIONS
19.1 ASSIGNMENT: This Agreement may not be assigned in whole or in part without
the prior written consent of the other Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but
subject to the provisions of Section 4.1, each Party shall have the right to
assign, in whole or in part, its rights, interests and obligations under this
Agreement, without the prior consent of the other Party, to an Affiliate,
provided such Affiliate agrees in writing to be bound by all of the obligations

ASSIGN"), provided that the Permitted Assign agrees in writing to be bound by
all of the obligations of the assigning Party under this Agreement. In all
circumstances, the assigning Party shall not be released from its liabilities
under this Agreement except to the extent the non-assigning Party otherwise
agrees. Any attempted assignment, sub-license, transfer, encumbrance or other
disposal of this Agreement without such required consent will be void and
ineffective, and will constitute a material default and breach of this
Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of
the Parties and their respective successors and Permitted Assigns.

SCHEDULE 1
STATEMENT OF WORK
STATEMENT OF WORK
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Master Supply Agreement ("MSA"),
this document sets forth the responsibilities that each Party has with respect
to the overall accountability for delivering the VoIP Services. Both Parties
acknowledge that the specific boundaries between each Party's areas of
accountabilities are subject to change, from time to time, in accordance with
the terms and conditions set out in the MSA. In performing its obligations as
contemplated herein, BCE Nexxia, subject to the terms and conditions of the
MSA, shall do so in proactive consultation with Clearwire. The delivery of all
Service Elements required for the provision of VoIP Service to End User shall
be performed by Clearwire, except as otherwise expressly contemplated herein as
being required to be performed by BCE Nexxia. For greater certainty, the
functions assigned to BCE Nexxia hereunder shall be deemed the "Services" for
the purpose of this Statement of Work and the MSA. In this Statement of Work,
"CW" has the same meaning as "Clearwire" under the MSA.
Appendix I attached to this Statement of Work as well as the remainder of this
page are a description of the Services that is intended to be used as a
guideline for interpretation of the various obligations of the Parties under
this Statement of Work, but does not create any independent obligations or
supersede any unambiguous provision of this Statement Work or the MSA.
As of the Effective Date, the scope of BCE Nexxia's responsibilities is

1.0 DOCUMENT OBJECTIVES
The objective of this document is to provide a detailed description of the Voice
over IP service which may be offered via Clearwire in their US consumer
footprint. This description will be used by the service development teams to
communicate the requirements of the project.
-- THE CONTENTS OF THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED DYNAMIC AND WILL BE
UPDATED ACCORDING TO ONGOING CONSULTATION BETWEEN CLEARWIRE AND BCE CONSISTENT
WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE MASTER SERVICE AGREEMENT.

BCE NEXXIA RESTRICTED
2.0 INTRODUCTION
2.1 NOTATION
Voice over Internet Protocol is commonly referred to as VoIP, Voice over
IP, or more generally, Internet Telephony.
An Analog Terminal Adapter (ATA) is at the heart of the VoIP service from
the consumer perspective. For the purpose of this document, the ATA will be
referred to as the "Voice Adapter". Definitions of the ATA will be included
in this document once BCE Nexxia and Clearwire have finalized CPE plans.
An Internet Sharing Device (ISD), Residential Gateway (RG), and Internet
Gateway (IG) all describe a product that can be referred to as a Router.
For clarity and convenience, the term "Router" will be used throughout this
document to identify that hardware device. Finally, for the purpose of this
document, the term modem should be taken to refer to a broadband or
high-speed modem provided for the Clearwire high speed internet service.
For the purposes of this document, we will refer to the Clearwire VoIP
service as "CW Digital Voice" or simply "Digital Voice".
2.2 BACKGROUND

3.4 OVERALL ASSUMPTIONS
o Clearwire will ensure adequate broadband IP connection quality
and sufficient network capacity between the home and the local
Clearwire POP.
CW Digital Voice Service is assumed to be initially based on a
self-install model.
9
BCE NEXXIA RESTRICTED
4.0 VOIP NETWORK
4.1 NETWORK ARCHITECTURE
Network diagrams need to be conformed to the agreed upon Clearwire - BCE Nexxia
architectures.
The consumer VoIP application is based on the Nortel MCS 5200/CS2K platform.
There are two types of sites deployed - a "main site" and a "POP". Main sites
(location to be confirmed by BCE Nexxia) have the MCS/CS2K server complex,
several PSTN gateways, multimedia servers to support offerings such as voicemail
and conferencing as well as voice adapter provisioning servers. Main sites are
fully redundant from a network perspective and BCE Nexxia would work to enable
fail-over functionality between the Main Sites (with delivery timeframe updates
to CW). POP sites provide local "dial tone" for incoming and outgoing calls in
various areas through the means of PSTN gateways. For POP sites, redundancy is
only deployed for outgoing calls. (i.e., in the event of a main site failure it
would still be possible to place calls from the area served by a given POP (by
using PSTN failover i.e. calls would be "backhauled" to our Toronto or Montreal
main sites and routed through our network) but incoming calls to primary or
secondary phone numbers in that site would not be possible.)
The Internet is used to interconnect to the main sites. Such sites must be
protected with a firewall. The current plan anticipates that the VoIP service
may share a firewall with other services delivered through the Clearwire POP.)
4.2 SERVICE LEVEL OBJECTIVES (OPS METRICS ARE UNDER DEVELOPMENT)
The following Operational metrics would be measured and averaged over the month
and would exclude end-user devices:
[***]
[*** Confidential Treatment Requested]

BCE NEXXIA RESTRICTED
[***]
4.3 SECURITY (UNDER DEVELOPMENT, CLARIFICATION AND ROLES TBD)
4.3.1 INTRODUCTION
The service at a minimum secures the transmission of user passwords,
and information that can compromise the availability of the service and
or its functionality. Devices that are subject to abuse, attack or
intrusion would be protected to ensure the quality and availability of
the service. Standard practices and devices would be available and
regularly monitored by BCE Nexxia's network operations group.
4.3.2 WEB SERVICES PLATFORM (PORTAL)
User interactions with the VoIP web services would be accomplished in a
secure manner. All communications to web services would be encrypted.
Also only known trusted clients would be able to access the VoIP web
services. Security architecture and solution would be mutually agreed
where relevant upon once various impacts (costs, end user impact) have
been considered.
The Web Services Platform (this needs to be defined not clear what this

Systems as well the platform will be protected by anti-virus software

5.0 END USER EXPERIENCE
One of the key aspects of the CW Digital Voice service is the ability
to map multiple phone numbers to a single end user account. The list of
multiple numbers must include a single "primary phone number" (Digital
Voice Number) and a mutually agreeable limit of additional "secondary
numbers".
The service supports a maximum of one number, primary or secondary,
from any one city. This means it is not possible to have a primary
Digital Voice Number and a secondary Number from the same city or two
secondary numbers from the same city due to systems limitations. I CW
and BCE Nexxia would work to remove this restriction as part of feature
enhancement efforts.
5.1 PRIMARY PHONE NUMBERS
"Primary phone number" is the term used to describe the main number for
the CW Digital Voice service. All outbound calling charges and taxes
are based on the primary number. The primary number is the E911 number
and the associated address must be valid and in the same city as the
primary number for E911 call routing.
5.1.1 IMPLICATIONS OF PRIMARY NUMBER SELECTION
All calls made by the user Would be charged as though they are made
from the location of the primary phone number. Implications of primary
phone number selection include:
o Dial-in number to access Voicemail would have the
same area code as the user's primary number.
o Primary number is always used as either call
origination point or call termination point for usage
tracking and billing
o Meet-Me-Conferencing dial-in number would have the
same area code as the user's primary number.
5.2 SECONDARY PHONE NUMBERS
A "secondary phone" number allows parties in other cities to call CW
Digital Voice end users by dialling local phone numbers within those
cities, even if the Digital Voice end user resides in, and/or has
selected a primary number from a different city.
(Eg. a user with an Anchorage primary phone number who subscribes to a
secondary phone number in St. Cloud can provide parties within the St.
Cloud calling area with a local St Cloud number that rings through to
his/her Anchorage-based Digital Voice line. Secondary numbers have no
effect on outgoing calls made by the user, as all outgoing calls are
treated as if they are made from the location of the primary number).

Primary phone number YES YES

5.3 NUMBER TRANSFERABILITY (NTA) (TO BE CONFIRMED ONCE TELCO PARTNER
RELATIONSHIPS ARE ESTABLISHED):
End users would have the option of migrating their existing local wireline
phone number to their CW Digital Voice service to use that number as their
primary Digital Voice number. Conversely, they may have the option of
migrating their Digital Voice number to their local wireline service. End
users would be able to do the following:
o Transfer local wireline phone number to their new or
existing Digital Voice service
o Transfer Digital Voice number to a local wireline
service
o Transfer CLEC (wireline or VoIP) number to CW Digital
Voice service, (depending on system & process
availability)
o Transfer Digital Voice Number to a CLEC (wireline or
VoIP), (depending on system & process availability)

Port Out Transaction X% Complete in X Time X% Complete in X Time
NOTE: It is essential that the Partner Telcos be defined in order to determine
the NTA solution(s). The MapleVoice solution is contingent on Partner Telcos &
their NTA processes.
5.3.1 IMPLICATIONS OF NTA
o Once a Digital Voice primary number is ported to wire line,
the Digital Voice account must have a new primary number
assigned or be terminated.
o Static E911 profile needs to be updated for activation or
deactivation of primary number being ported to either wireline
and Digital Voice service
14
BCE NEXXIA RESTRICTED
o In the event that a new primary number is selected for an
existing Digital Voice account updates may be required for
certain supported features, eg. Dial-in number for access to
Voicemail account, Call Screening list, etc.
5.3.2 OUT OF SCOPE FOR NTA
Porting of numbers that are not supported by wireline is out of scope.

6.0 STATIC E911
At the time of the creation of this document, the Static E911 end user
experience or architecture has not been finalized for USA market. A BCE Nexxia
patent pending solution has been implemented for BCE Nexxia's service area and
would be leveraged/adapted as appropriate for the CW deployment. As listed in
section 3.1, Static E911 will be part of the initial VOIP offering.

7.0 MINIMUM SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
To subscribe to Digital Voice service, end users must meet the following
requirements:
7.1 INTERNET ACCESS SPEED
(*NOTA BENE: the following is based on a pure "over-the-top" implementation and
does NOT yet contemplate the anticipated benefits to VoIP from CW's ability to
prioritize bandwidth for the Digital Voice application vs. browsing/e-mail etc.
This section must be reconciled with CW's Internet access product QoS
implementation
o Minimum: in excess of 64kpbs upstream, and in excess of 128kbps
downstream
o Recommended: in excess of 384kbps upstream, and in excess of l.0Mbps
downstream
o Limitation with CW's low-tier Internet access service:
Current interim 3-Way Calling implementation would NOT offer
acceptable performance (based on current G729 codec working
assumptions). Planned future redesign of this feature would
alleviate the issue with low-tier. Internet access products
such as that which is described as Minimum above.
o Limitation with CW's low-tier Internet access service:
Concurrent use of PC for large file transfer/download and/or
browsing of complex websites may also decrease the sound
quality of a Digital Voice call.
7.2 HOME NETWORK REQUIREMENTS
All Clearwire end users would be provided with a 2 Ethernet LAN port Sipura ATA.
The WAN port on the ATA will connect to the Clearwire CPE and the other will
connect to the end user's computer or home networking equipment.

10.3 PROVISIONING AND BILLING (NEEDS TO BE REVISITED BASED ON CW MODEL)
End users are encouraged to order Digital Voice service on CW web-site.
Customers would choose to subscribe to Internet Access Services either with
Digital Voice Service or not. They would also need to identify what a la
carte features or Additional Number(s) they wish to order. The actual
selection and configuration of their features, including the cities in
which their Digital Voice Number (i.e. primary number) and Additional
Numbers, is done on a Web application during the ordering process. The
ordering system would need to advise the Digital Voice Web application
which service, package, etc. the customer has subscribed to. On an ongoing
basis, Digital Voice Web application would have to advise the billing group
when certain events take place that trigger billing (such as changing a
primary number). Similarly, the ordering Web application would have to
advise Digital Voice Web application when changes to their profile have
been made (services added/deleted/changed). This area needs further
clarification between CW and BCE. See diagram below for initial integration
focus areas.
(INITIAL INTEGRATION FOCUS AREAS DIAGRAM)
10.4 BILLING START DATE
For existing Clearwire Internet service subscribers, billing for Digital
Voice service begins the day the order is taken for Digital Voice service.
Billing cycle would be the same as Clearwire Internet service.
23
BCE NEXXIA RESTRICTED
For new Clearwire Internet service subscribers, billing for Digital Voice
service begins when Clearwire Internet service is billed; i.e. at
activation of Clearwire Internet service (connection of modem) or xdays
