EQUIPMENT LEASE AGREEMENT
THIS EQUIPMENT LEASE AGREEMENT ("Lease Agreement") dated as of
June 30, 2005 is made by and between Clearwire Corporation, a Delaware
corporation, with a principal place of business at 5808 Lake Washington Blvd NE,
Suite 300, Kirkland, WA 98033 ("Lessor"), and 6311458 Canada Ltd., a Canadian
federal corporation, with a principal place of business at 6th Floor, 177

INTRODUCTION
WHEREAS, the Lessee has agreed to issue shares to the Lessor representing
fifteen percent (15%) of its total outstanding shares of capital stock (the
"Shares") in partial consideration for the Lessor using commercially reasonable
efforts to arrange for the execution of a roaming agreement as provided in the
Agreement Regarding Roaming between the Lessee and the Lessor, dated as of the
date of this Agreement;
AND WHEREAS, the Lessor has agreed, in partial consideration for the issue
of the Shares, to enter into this Lease Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set
forth, the Lessor and Lessee agree as follows:
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF LEASE
1. Lease Agreement.
(a) Lessor hereby leases to Lessee, and Lessee hereby leases from
Lessor, the Equipment, subject to and upon the terms set forth herein. Each
Equipment Order shall constitute a separate and enforceable lease incorporating
all the terms of this Lease Agreement as if such terms were set forth in full in
such Equipment Order. In the event that any term of any Equipment Order
conflicts with or is inconsistent with any term of this Lease Agreement, the
terms of this Lease Agreement shall govern.
(b) The Equipment subject to this Lease Agreement shall have a maximum
aggregate value of up to US$5,000,000, subject to adjustment under this Section
1(b). The maximum aggregate value of the Equipment that may be leased by Lessee
under this Lease Agreement shall be reduced, dollar for dollar, by (a) the
amount of all interest that accrues and is unpaid, from time to time, on the
loan made by Fixed Wireless Holdings, LLC to Craig Wireless Nevada Inc. ("CWN")
pursuant to a Loan Agreement dated September 30, 2004, unless such interest is
otherwise paid in cash and/or (b) upon the election of any Purchaser Indemnified
Party (as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement), the amount payable by CWN
(or its successor) and/or any Related Parties (as defined in the Stock Purchase
Agreement) to such Purchaser Indemnified Party under Article 9 of the Stock
Purchase Agreement unless such amount is otherwise paid in cash. For example, if
accrued interest on such loan equals $100,000, then the maximum aggregate value
of Equipment that may be leased under this Lease Agreement shall be reduced by
such amount, and if CWN is required to pay a Purchaser Indemnified Party
$100,000 under Article 9 of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Purchaser
Indemnified Party may elect to reduce the maximum aggregate value of Equipment
that may be leased under this Lease Agreement by such amount. The value of the
Equipment shall be determined in good faith by

Lessor, based on the list prices at which such Equipment is sold to similarly
situated purchasers of such Equipment by NextNet.
(c) The Equipment leased under this Lease Agreement will be delivered
from time to time as it is needed by Lessee for deployment in Manitoba for the
MCS spectrum licenses held by Lessee. Lessee shall, upon request, provide Lessor
with a rolling forecast, on a month by month basis, of Lessee's anticipated
Equipment requirements. In any event, Lessor shall not be required to deliver
any Equipment under this Lease Agreement without at least 180 days prior written
notice to Lessor, listing specific equipment requirements and specific
quantities (each, an "Equipment Order").
(d) Lessee shall not use, or permit the use, of the Equipment anywhere
other than in Manitoba, in markets in which Lessee holds MCS spectrum licenses,
provided, however, that if Lessee is sold, or if all or substantially all of
Lessee's assets are sold, the Equipment may be used outside of North America,
provided that such use complies with applicable law (such permitted locations
for use of the Equipment by Lessee, the "Permitted Territory").
2. Limited Warranty; Disclaimer of Warranties.
(a) Upon the delivery of the Equipment to Lessee, Lessor shall assign
the limited warranty on the Equipment described on Exhibit A attached hereto
from Supplier to Lessee. Such assignment by Lessor shall be without recourse.
SUCH WARRANTY SHALL NOT RELEASE LESSEE FROM ITS OBLIGATION TO PERFORM ALL
OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER AND TO KEEP, MAINTAIN AND SURRENDER THE EQUIPMENT IN THE
CONDITION REQUIRED BY SECTIONS 12 AND 13 HEREOF.
(b) LESSOR MAKES NO (AND SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO HAVE MADE ANY)
WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, THE DESIGN, OPERATION OR CONDITION OF, OR THE QUALITY OF THE
MATERIAL, EQUIPMENT OR WORKMANSHIP IN, THE EQUIPMENT, ITS MERCHANTABILITY OR ITS
FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE, THE STATE OF TITLE THERETO OR OF ANY
COMPONENT THEREOF, THE ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS (WHETHER OR NOT
DISCOVERABLE), AND LESSOR HEREBY DISCLAIMS THE SAME; IT BEING UNDERSTOOD THAT
THE EQUIPMENT IS LEASED TO LESSEE "AS IS" AND ALL SUCH RISKS, IF ANY, ARE TO BE
BORNE BY LESSEE. NO DEFECT IN, OR UNFITNESS OF, THE EQUIPMENT, OR ANY OF THE
OTHER FOREGOING MATTERS, SHALL RELIEVE LESSEE OF ANY OBLIGATION HEREUNDER.
LESSEE HAS MADE THE SELECTION OF THE EQUIPMENT FROM THE SUPPLIER BASED ON ITS
OWN JUDGMENT AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY RELIANCE UPON ANY STATEMENTS OR
REPRESENTATIONS MADE BY LESSOR. LESSOR IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY REPAIRS,
SERVICE, MAINTENANCE OR DEFECT IN THE EQUIPMENT OR THE OPERATION THEREOF. EXCEPT
FOR THE REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE LESSOR EXPRESSLY SET
FORTH HEREIN, IN NO EVENT SHALL LESSOR BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (WHETHER UNDER THE UCC OR OTHERWISE), INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, ANY LOSS, COST OR DAMAGE TO LESSEE OR OTHERS ARISING FROM ANY OF THE
FOREGOING MATTERS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
2
{PAGE}
DEFECTS, NEGLIGENCE, DELAYS, FAILURE OF DELIVERY OR NON-PERFORMANCE OF THE
EQUIPMENT. Lessee's execution and delivery of a Certificate of Acceptance shall
be conclusive evidence as between Lessor and Lessee that the Items of Equipment
described therein are in all of the foregoing respects satisfactory to Lessee,
and Lessee shall not assert any claim of any nature whatsoever against Lessor
based on any of the foregoing matters; provided, however, that nothing contained
herein or in any Certificate of Acceptance delivered hereunder shall in any way
bar, reduce or defeat any claim that Lessee may have against the Supplier or any
other person (other than Lessor).
3. Lease Agreement Not Cancelable by Lessee. LESSEE'S OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER
ARE ABSOLUTE, IRREVOCABLE AND UNCONDITIONAL UNDER ANY AND ALL CIRCUMSTANCES
WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE BANKRUPTCY OF LESSOR) AND SHALL NOT
BE SUBJECT TO ANY RIGHT OF SET OFF, COUNTERCLAIM, DEDUCTION, DEFENSE OR OTHER
RIGHT WHICH LESSEE MAY HAVE AGAINST THE SUPPLIER, LESSOR OR ANY OTHER PARTY.
LESSEE SHALL HAVE NO RIGHT TO TERMINATE (EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED HEREIN) OR
CANCEL THIS LEASE OR TO BE RELEASED OR DISCHARGED FROM ITS OBLIGATION HEREUNDER
FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DEFECTS IN,
DESTRUCTION OF, DAMAGE TO OR INTERFERENCE WITH ANY USE OF THE EQUIPMENT (FOR ANY
REASON WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WAR, ACT OF GOD, STRIKE OR
GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION), THE INVALIDITY, ILLEGALITY OR UNENFORCEABILITY (OR ANY
ALLEGATION THEREOF) OF THIS LEASE OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF, OR ANY OTHER
OCCURRENCE WHATSOEVER, WHETHER SIMILAR OR DISSIMILAR TO THE FOREGOING, WHETHER
FORESEEN OR UNFORESEEN.
