Key

              of the contract term through November 15,
              2010;
·
Access to various financial incentives, including
              discounts and credits, on eligible products after specified purchase
              volumes have been achieved; and
·
Monetary
                  consideration for removing and replacing Ericsson CDMA network
                  equipment
                  in the Company's Midwest territory by February
                  2008.
