All Senior Indebtedness shall rank pari passu without any preference among Senior Indebtedness by reason of date of incurrence or otherwise. 2.03 PRO RATA PAYMENT OF OBLIGATIONS. Except as specifically set forth in Section 2.05, (a) each prepayment to a Senior Lender in respect of the Senior Indebtedness, and (b) on and after the occurrence of an Event of Default and the delivery of a Remedies Instruction as described in the Intercreditor Agreement, each payment to a Senior Lender in respect of the Senior Indebtedness, shall be on a Pro Rata Payment basis in accordance with the respective 3 interest, fees, commissions, indemnities, principal and other amounts due to all of the Senior Lenders on the date of such payment or prepayment. 2.04 ADDITIONAL SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS. From time to time the Company may, subject to the terms hereof, designate additional indebtedness of and commitments to lend to the Company as Senior Indebtedness, and upon satisfaction of each of the following conditions precedent such designated indebtedness and commitments, for all purposes of this Agreement, shall be Senior Indebtedness secured by the collateral subject to the Security Documents and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement ("Additional Senior Indebtedness"): (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.04, the lenders of such Additional Senior Indebtedness (or an agent or fiduciary representing such lenders) (the "Additional Senior Indebtedness Lender") shall have executed and delivered to the Collateral Agent an agreement in which each such lender agrees to be bound as a Senior Lender by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Collateral Agency Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement as if it were a party hereto and thereto. (b) The Company shall have furnished to the Collateral Agent and to each of the Alcatel Administrative Agent and the Qualcomm Administrative Agent a term sheet describing the terms and conditions of the proposed Additional Senior Indebtedness, a summary describing any and all representations, warranties, affirmative covenants, negative covenants, events of default and other non-financial terms which are to be imposed in connection with the making of such Additional Senior Indebtedness and which are potentially more restrictive on the Borrower Group than the provisions of this Agreement (the "Further Provisions"), and as soon as practicable, drafts of the proposed Credit Agreement and each of the other documents related thereto. Within 10 Business Days after the receipt of such term sheet and drafts of the Further Provisions, the Alcatel Administrative Agent and the Qualcomm Administrative Agent shall notify the Company, the Additional Senior Indebtedness Lender, the Collateral Agent and each other such Administrative Agent whether they (acting on behalf of, and at the instructions of, the Senior Lenders under their respective Credit Agreements) agree to amend or supplement the provisions of this Agreement to allow such Further Provisions to be incorporated herein; and, if either of them (on behalf of the Senior Lenders under their respective Credit Agreements) so agree, pursuant to the sole and absolute discretion of such Senior Lenders, this Agreement shall be amended to include such Further Provisions and each party hereto shall execute and deliver an amendment implementing such Further Provisions, which amendment shall be in form reasonably satisfactory to each such party; provided, that in no event shall any Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent be obligated to waive or modify any provision of the Financing Agreements relating to the Collateral.

Each of QUALCOMM and Alcatel shall be permitted to exercise their rights under this Section 2.04(b) any number of times of so long as QUALCOMM or Alcatel, as the case may be, shall be a Senior Lender or shall be providing credit support to any Senior Lender with respect to the Senior Indebtedness of such Senior Lender. (c) Any and all liens, collateral assignments, security interests and charges which are to be given by the Borrower Group or their shareholders in connection with such Additional Senior Indebtedness ("Additional Collateral") shall be granted to the Collateral Agent (and the Security Documents shall be amended or supplemented accordingly, or further security documents shall be executed and delivered by the Borrower Group to grant such Additional Collateral to the Collateral Agent), so that, following the issuance of such Additional Senior Indebtedness, all of the Senior Indebtedness will be secured on a pari passu basis. (d) Each member of the Borrower Group shall execute and deliver a Guaranty Agreement in favor of the Additional Senior Indebtedness Lender in such a manner that the Additional Senior Indebtedness is guaranteed thereunder to the same extent as the other Senior Indebtedness at the time outstanding is guaranteed; provided, however, that, the Company may arrange for a guaranty or guarantees of such Additional Senior Indebtedness from a third party or parties, other than other members of the Borrower Group (a "Third Party Guarantor") without providing for a similar guaranty or guarantees of other Senior Indebtedness, so long as (i) any representations, warranties, covenants or defaults included in any reimbursement or similar agreement between any member of the Borrower Group and the Third Party Guarantor shall constitute Further Provisions for purposes of clause (b) of this Section 2.04, and (ii) no collateral or other security may be given to such Third Party Guarantor by any member of the Borrower Group other than in respect of subrogation rights, if any, which such Third Party Guarantor may have in the Collateral and the Security Documents, if and to the extent that it makes payments under such guaranty. (e) At least five days prior to the issuance of the Additional Senior Indebtedness, the Borrower Group shall have delivered to each Administrative Agent a certificate (i) describing such Additional Senior Indebtedness, (ii) stating that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing hereunder after giving full effect to the incurrence of such Additional Senior Indebtedness, and (iii) stating that, following such issuance, the Borrower Group will be in compliance with the provisions of this Section 2.04 and with the provisions of Section 6.04(d).

(a) Prepayments of Senior Indebtedness shall be permitted to the extent provided in the applicable Credit Agreement and to the extent provided below. (b) Any prepayment of the principal amounts of any Senior Indebtedness (other than (i) a prepayment of Non-Vendor Financing, (ii) a prepayment of vendor financing from financing provided or supported by an export credit agency or (iii) a prepayment made under a revolving credit or similar facility, including a voluntary prepayment of a Loan the proceeds of which were used for the payment of VAT, provided that the lender's commitment thereunder is not permanently reduced at the time of such prepayment) shall be accompanied by a prepayment, on a Pro Rata Payment basis, of the principal amounts of all other Senior Indebtedness then outstanding, (which prepayments shall be made simultaneously unless any such Senior Indebtedness does not permit such prepayment at such time or would otherwise require a prepayment or break-funding penalty, in which case such prepayment amounts, at the option of the Company, may be deposited with the applicable Administrative Agent, invested in Permitted Investments, and applied to the prepayment of such Senior Indebtedness on the first date permitted or as to which no prepayment or break-funding penalty would be imposed) which prepayment (unless the option described in the foregoing parenthetical shall be exercised) shall be accompanied by the full payment of any prepayment premium, break-funding amounts or other amounts due and payable under the applicable Credit Agreement in connection with such prepayment; provided, that (x) no such prepayment of any other Senior Indebtedness shall be required if the Senior Lenders holding such Senior Indebtedness agree to waive such prepayment or if the Credit Agreement governing such Senior Indebtedness does not permit such prepayment and (y) the amount of the Senior Indebtedness which would be so prepaid (but for the foregoing clause (x)) shall not be applied to the other Senior Indebtedness then outstanding. (c) Any prepayment of principal on any Senior Indebtedness as described in Section 2.05(b) shall be accompanied in each case with the full payment of all accrued and unpaid interest on such Senior Indebtedness to the extent required under the applicable Credit Agreement. (d) Subject to SECTION 2.05(b), any prepayment of any Senior Indebtedness which is made from the proceeds of other Indebtedness ("Refinancing Indebtedness") may be made on a non-Pro Rata Payment basis between or among Senior Indebtedness; provided, however, that the documentation under which such Refinancing Indebtedness (other than Refinancing Indebtedness provided or supported by an export credit agency) is issued shall provide that Senior Indebtedness may be prepaid by the Company on a non-Pro-Rata Payment basis to the same extent as is set forth in this Section 2.05. 2.06 PAYMENTS. (a) On each Payment Date, the Company shall make the scheduled principal repayments of Senior Indebtedness due on such Payment Date except to the extent that such repayments have been prepaid. Principal of the Senior Indebtedness shall be payable in accordance with the applicable Credit Agreement on the terms and conditions set forth therein. If two or more Credit Agreements set forth the same Payment Date at any one time, and the 6 Company shall not have sufficient funds on such date to make full payment of the Senior Indebtedness amounts due on such date under the applicable Credit Agreements, then the Company shall make payments to the Senior Lenders under such Credit Agreements on a Pro Rata Payment basis (determined without regard to clause (z) of the proviso of the definition of "Pro Rata Payment") in respect of the amounts due on such date. (b) On each Payment Date, the Company shall pay accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Senior Indebtedness outstanding under each Credit Agreement in accordance with the terms of the applicable Credit Agreement. (c) All payments due under any Credit Agreement shall be made by the Company pursuant to the terms of the applicable Credit Agreement, in Dollars, as required under the applicable Credit Agreement, and in immediately available funds. Subject to the provisions of the Collateral Agency Agreement and Intercreditor Agreement, the relevant Administrative Agent shall apply each payment with respect thereto received by it in accordance with such Credit Agreement. (d) If at any time at which any Obligations are payable to a Senior Lender such Senior Lender receives insufficient funds pursuant to the applicable Credit Agreement to pay in full all Obligations payable to such Senior Lender at such time, the funds so received by such Senior Lender at such time shall be deemed to be applied as follows: (i) FIRST, to interest (including post-default interest) on the Senior Indebtedness held by such Senior Lender; (ii) SECOND, to principal of the Senior Indebtedness held by such Senior Lender; and (iii) THIRD, to fees, commissions, indemnities, expenses and all amounts (other than principal of and interest on the Senior Indebtedness) payable to such Senior Lender. 2.07 SWAP AGREEMENTS AS SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS. Subject to any other restrictions otherwise contained in this Common Agreement, the Company may enter into interest rate and Peso-Dollar currency swap agreements (including collars, caps and similar derivative arrangements) through the execution of an agreement, (a "Swap Agreement") with an Eligible Swap Counterparty; provided, however, that all interest rate swap agreements shall be bona fide hedges of floating rate exposure for a fixed rate obligation, shall have at any time a notional amount not greater than the Company's floating rate Indebtedness outstanding at such time, and cover a period not exceeding four years from any date of determination; provided, further, that all currency swap agreements shall be forward contracts, for a term not exceeding one year, for the purchase of Dollars or Pesos with notional amounts in aggregate not exceeding the Company's projected operating expenses coming due over the three month period following the date upon which such currency swap agreement is entered. The Company may incur obligations under the Swap Agreement without regard to any limitations imposed under Section 2.04 or Section 6.04. The obligations of the Company under any such Swap Agreement may, upon notice by the Company to the Collateral Agent, be secured by the Collateral on a pro- 7 rata basis to the same extent as would be the case if such obligations of the Company under such Swap Agreement were deemed to be Additional Senior Indebtedness hereunder, in which event the Security Documents shall be amended to the extent necessary to provide for such pro-rata treatment of the swap counterparty in respect of such Collateral; provided, however, that in such event (i) no member of the Borrower Group shall, if the swap counterparty is secured as aforesaid, grant to such swap counterparty any other Lien upon the property or assets of the Borrower Group, (ii) the amount secured by the Collateral, as described in the preceding sentence, shall be the amount owed from time to time by the Company under the Swap Agreement, and (iii) the swap counterparty, in its capacity as such, shall not otherwise be, or be deemed to be, a Senior Lender hereunder and shall have no voting rights with respect to any matter described herein or in the other Financing Agreements. Upon delivery of the notice to the Collateral Agent as aforesaid, accompanied by a certificate of the Chief Financial Officer of the Company stating that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, the Collateral Agent shall amend or supplement the Security Documents to implement the provisions of this Section 2.07.
