Other Events. On July 10, 1998, WinStar Communications, Inc. (Registrant) entered into an Agreement to Purchase LMDS License with CellularVision USA, Inc. ("CVUSA") and CellularVision of New York, L.P. ("CVNY") pursuant to which Registrant has agreed to purchase from CVNY a license granted by the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") for 850 MHz of bandwidth in New York City. This bandwidth will be disaggregated from CVNY's license and combined with Registrant's existing 38 GHz licenses to establish a total spectrum position of 1.750 MHz in New York City. Registrant will pay $32.5 million in cash for the license. The transaction is subject to the receipt of consent of the FCC to the transfer of the license, compliance with provisions of the Hart-Scott- Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, approval of the stockholders of CVUSA and other conditions usual to transactions of such nature. Registrant also has agreed to lend CVNY $3.5 million (which was advanced on July 17, 1998) and an additional $2.0 million upon completion of necessary filings with the FCC and the granting of approval by CVUSA's stockholders. Registrant may lend CVNY up to an additional $7.0 in certain circumstances. Payment of the loans to CVNY is guaranteed by CVUSA and is secured by pledges of all of the assets of both CVUSA and CVNY as well as pledges of the stock of the general partner of CVNY and all of the limited partnership interests of CVNY.

Rubin Vice President and Treasurer 3 EX-10.1 2 AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE LMDS LICENSE EXECUTION COPY AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE LMDS LICENSE AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE LMDS LICENSE, dated as of July 10, 1998 (this "Agreement") by and between WinStar Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation the "Purchaser"), CellularVision USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("CVUSA") and CellularVision of New York, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("Seller"), WHEREAS, Seller holds the LMDS A Block License (the "License") from the Federal Communications Commission (the "FCC") for the New York Primary Metropolitan Statistical Area (i.e., the five boroughs comprising the City of New York, and the contiguous New York State counties of Westchester, Rockland and Putnam), free and clear of all liens, claims, rights of usage by third parties and other encumbrances (collectively, "Liens"), WHEREAS, Seller and CVUSA have retained Wasserstein Perella & Co., Inc. to advise them on the marketing and sale of the 850 MHz License and Wasserstein Perella & Co., Inc. has managed the sale process, which included, among other things, contacting a large number of potential purchasers as well as active negotiations with certain potential purchasers, all of which resulted in the offer of the Purchase Price and the Loans (as hereinafter defined) all on the terms and conditions set forth herein, which CVUSA deems to be the best offer currently available for the 850 MHz License; WHEREAS, Seller intends to disaggregate 850 MHz of the spectrum covered by the License, comprised of the frequencies between 27.5 and 28.35 GHz and to be conveyed to Purchaser pursuant to a license granted by the FCC thereto (the "850 MHz License") and Purchaser wishes to purchase the 850 MHz License, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, free and clear of all Liens. WHEREAS, holders of not less than 39% of the outstanding shares of common stock of CVUSA wish to irrevocably consent to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and the mutual conditions and obligations set forth herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 1. Purchase Price; Loan. (a) The purchase price for the 850 MHz License shall be $32,500,000, of which a portion will be payable by offset of the total outstanding principal amount and accrued interest on the Loan (as defined below) and the remainder of which will be payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds to Seller at the Closing (defined in Section 3). (b) As promptly as practicable following the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto (including the voting agreement of certain holders owning not less than 39% of the outstanding shares of common stock of CVUSA), Purchaser will make an initial loan to Seller (the "Initial Loan") in the amount of $3,500,000, and, when Seller shall have made the FCC filings contemplated by Section 2(a) and CVUSA shall have obtained the stockholder approval contemplated by Section 13, Purchaser will make an additional loan in the amount of $2,000,000 (such loan, together with the Initial Loan and the loans that Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, make pursuant to Section 6, the "Loans") at 7.5% per annum, with interest and principal payable in full at the Closing by way of offset against the purchase price then due, as provided above, or on such earlier date as this Agreement may be terminated in accordance with its terms, provided that in the event of such a termination, such interest rate will be 18% per annum. The Loans will be secured by a first priority perfected security interest on all of the assets of Seller as to which a security interest may be granted, including, without limitation, the proceeds from such assets as well as from the sale or other transfer of FCC licenses, it being understood and agreed that (i) a vendor's security interest in certain equipment has been assigned to NewStart Factors, Inc. and (ii) the FCC licenses may not be subject to security interests as a matter of law. Purchaser's security interest will extend to after-acquired property and to proceeds, provided that Borrower will retain the right to enter into vendor financing and equivalent secured financing arrangements with respect to equipment acquired after the date hereof. CVUSA will guarantee the repayment in full of the Loans in accordance with its terms, and will secure its guarantee with a pledge of all of the outstanding shares of stock of CellularVision Capital Corp., the sole general partner of Seller, and all of the outstanding limited partnership interests in Seller, all of which are owned by CVUSA. The parties agree to prepare, review and negotiate in good faith and execute as promptly as practicable (and in any event prior to the funding of the Loans) mutually acceptable definitive documentation ((the "Loan Documents") in customary form for these financing transactions, including, without limitation, a Loan Agreement (including guaranty provisions), a Note, a Security Agreement (including pledge provisions), and UCC-1 forms. To the extent there is an inconsistency between the Loan Documents and this Agreement with respect to the Loans and related security arrangements, the Loan Documents shall control. 2. Government Approvals; Transition. (a) As promptly as practicable following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Seller and Purchaser will (i) file appropriate applications for the disaggregation of the License and assignment of the 850 MHz License to Purchaser and (ii) make such filings under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 and the rules and regulations (collectively, the "HSR Act") as may be legally required in order to consummate the transactions contemplated herein, with the filing fee related to any such filing to be shared by Purchaser and CVNY on a 50%/50% basis. Following the making of such applications and filings, both parties will diligently attempt to obtain successful results with respect thereto in a manner that permits the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein as soon as practicable. (b) Prior to the Closing, and in accordance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements, Seller will clear its operations from the spectrum covered by the 850 MHz License, such transition to be completed in any event within 90 days of the date of FCC Approval (as herein defined). 3. Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated herein (the "Closing") shall occur on the first business day (the "Closing Date") following the first date upon which all of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the FCC shall have granted its consent to the assignment of the 850 MHz License to Purchaser and, unless waived by Purchaser, such consent shall have become a final, nonappealable order no longer subject to review or reconsideration ("FCC Approval"); (ii) CVUSA shall have obtained the approval of its stockholders with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby; and (iii) any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act shall have expired without action taken to prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein. At the closing, Seller shall assign the 850 MHz License to Purchaser free and clear of all Liens against payment of the Purchase Price as contemplated by Section 1. 4. Representations and Warranties. (a) Each party (the "Representer") hereby represents and warrants to the other that (i) the Representer has all requisite power and authority to execute this Agreement and the Loan Documents and perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder, (ii) all corporate and partnership action necessary for the authorization, execution and performance by the Representer of its obligations hereunder and thereunder have been taken, except that, in the case of CVUSA, stockholder approval may be required, and (iii) subject to obtaining the consent and approvals referred to in paragraph 3 above, the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Loan Documents does not and will not require the consent of any other person or entity, contravene the certificate of incorporation or by-laws or certificate of limited partnership or partnership agreement of the Representer or conflict with or result in a breach or violation by the Representer of any law, court or administrative order or contract to which the Representer is a party or by which the Representer is bound. (b) Seller and CVUSA hereby represent and warrant that Seller is the sole legal and beneficial owner and holder of the License, has the right under applicable law and FCC regulations to effect the disaggregation of spectrum contemplated hereby and that the License is, and the 850 MHz License will be, held by Seller free and clear of all Liens. Without limiting the foregoing, Seller hereby represents and warrants that no person or entity other than Seller has or will have the right to use all or any portion of the License or the 850 MHz License. Seller hereby further represents and warrants that (i) it is in compliance in all material respects with the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules, regulations and policies of the FCC, (ii) Seller has satisfied all build-out, renewal, construction and other material regulatory requirements, and (iii) there are no pending complaints, challenges, petitions, appeals or other regulatory encumbrances pending or, to the best of the knowledge of Seller or CVUSA, threatened, against Seller or the License.

Termination. Either party which is not then in material breach of its obligations hereunder may terminate this Agreement without liability by written notice to the other party if the Closing Date shall not have occurred on or before January 31, 1999, provided, however, that upon Purchaser's notice given at least 10 days prior to the date that termination would otherwise be permitted, such date shall be extended to June 30, 1999 and, thereafter, to December 31, 1999 if (i) Purchaser is not in material breach of its obligations hereunder and (ii) on each such occasion Purchaser makes an additional Loan of $3.5 million in principal amount to the Seller on substantially the same terms as the Loans. Purchaser may terminate this Agreement at any time if CVUSA has not obtained stockholder approval of this transaction by October 10, 1998. 7. Transaction Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2(a) and Section 13, each of the parties hereto will be responsible for its own expenses (including fees and expenses of legal counsel) incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, provided that as of the Closing Date (or earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms in a case in which the expense reimbursement provision of Section 13 do not apply) Seller and CVUSA will reimburse Purchaser's reasonable fees and expenses of counsel incurred in connection with the negotiation and preparation of the documents relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Loans, and the prosecution of the FCC applications contemplated hereby, provided that the amount of such fees and expenses related to the documentation of the transactions through the funding of the Initial Loan and prosecution of the FCC applications contemplated hereby shall not exceed $50,000. Each party represents to the other that it has not incurred any liability for a broker's or finder's fee in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, except that Seller is liable to Wasserstein Perella & Co., Inc. for fees in connection with such transactions. 8. Publicity; Disclosure. Without the prior approval of the other party, neither of the parties hereto shall disclose to the public or to any third party any information concerning the transactions contemplated hereby, other than disclosures to their financial, legal and other advisors and to governmental authorities or the public as may, in the opinion of counsel, be required by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, CVUSA shall be permitted to include in the proxy statement described in Section 13 hereof, such details of the transactions contemplated hereby as may be required by law; provided that Purchaser shall have the right to review and comment thereon prior to the proxy statement being filed with the SEC or distributed. The parties will cooperate in the preparation of a joint press release or coordinated but separate press releases announcing the effectiveness of this Agreement as soon as it occurs pursuant to Section 12. 9. Access. Until the Closing, CVUSA and Seller will give Purchaser and its representatives all access during ordinary business hours to the premises and personnel of Seller and CVUSA and to all accounting, financial and other records applicable to Seller as Purchaser may reasonably request for the purpose of confirming compliance with this Agreement and CVUSA and shall furnish all information with respect to the business and affairs of Seller as Purchaser may reasonably request for such purpose. CVUSA and Seller will cause their executives, employees, attorneys and accountants to make themselves available to provide reasonable cooperation to Purchaser in connection therewith. 10. Exclusivity. Neither CVUSA nor Seller shall (nor shall either of them permit their representatives or stockholders to) discuss a possible sale, lease or other disposition of or by Seller or CVUSA (whether by sale of stock or assets or otherwise) that is not consistent with the sale to Purchaser of the 850 MHz License contemplated hereby or provide any information in connection therewith to any other party or enter into any agreements or commitments to do the same. 11. Assignment. This Agreement is intended to be a binding agreement between Purchaser, CVUSA and Seller and shall bind and inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of such parties; provided that CVUSA and Seller may not assign their rights or delegate their obligations hereunder without Purchaser's prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld. The Purchaser may assign its rights hereunder to any of its wholly-owned or majority controlled subsidiaries, provided that no such assignment of its rights shall relieve Purchaser of any of its obligations hereunder. 12. Effectiveness. Simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement the following are expected to occur, upon the occurrence of which this Agreement will come into full force and effect: (a) Holders of not less than 39% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of CVUSA shall have agreed to vote their shares as provided below; (b) Seller shall have executed and delivered to Purchaser the Loan Documentation, including arrangements with existing creditors as Purchaser shall deem appropriate; (c) Purchaser shall have received such opinions of Seller's counsel as it shall reasonably require in connection with FCC and corporate matters with respect to the Loan Documents, the License and the transactions contemplated hereby, including, if Purchaser so requires, a favorable opinion from Purchaser's FCC counsel to the effect that there is no reason to expect (i) that the transactions contemplated hereby will materially adversely affect the regulatory status of any of the FCC wireless licenses currently held by Purchaser or any of its subsidiaries or (ii) that there is any reason to believe that the disaggregation of spectrum is not permissible under applicable law. 13. Shareholder Approval; Break-up fee; Events of Bankruptcy. (a) CVUSA has obtained the approval of a majority of its board of directors to the transactions contemplated hereby, and its board has recommended and will continue to recommend, so long as such recommendation is consistent with their fiduciary duties under applicable law, that its stockholders vote to approve the transactions contemplated hereby. CVUSA will call a special meeting of its stockholders as promptly as practicable for the purpose of obtaining such approval, will file a preliminary proxy statement with respect thereto with the Securities and Exchange Commission within five (5) business days of the execution of this Agreement and will distribute a definitive proxy statement to stockholders in accordance with applicable law, and use its best efforts to hold such meeting and obtain such approval as quickly as possible. (b) In the event a petition for relief under 11 U.S.C. ss.101 et seq. (the "Bankruptcy Code") or similar State insolvency statute, is filed by or against Seller or CVUSA, each Seller and CVUSA agree to (i) consent to entry of an order for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code; (ii) continue to comply with the terms of this Agreement; and (iii) to the extent necessary for Seller or CVUSA to continue to comply with the terms of this Agreement, seek Bankruptcy Court approval of the sale contemplated by this Agreement or take such other action as may be necessary or advisable to allow Seller and CVUSA to continue to comply with the terms of this Agreement. (c) in the event at any time on or prior to the Closing Date (i) this Agreement is terminated by Seller or CVUSA (other than as a result of a material breach by Purchaser) and a court determines that specific enforcement in accordance with the provisions of Section 14(b) is not available to Purchaser, or (ii) Purchaser terminates this Agreement because CVUSA stockholder approval has not been obtained by October 10, 1998, then Purchaser shall be entitled to the following as liquidated damages, and not as a penalty: (i) Expense Reimbursement: Seller and CVUSA jointly and severally shall reimburse Purchaser for its actual and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, not to exceed $325,000 (exclusive of the amounts payable pursuant to Section 7) incurred in furtherance of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein, including without limitation, attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by Purchaser for services of outside counsel in negotiating this Agreement, the Loan Documents and all related agreements, performance of due diligence, or otherwise (the "Expense Reimbursement"). Purchaser shall submit to Seller and CVUSA an itemized statement reflecting such actual reasonable expenses. Within five (5) days thereafter, Seller and CVUSA shall make an Expense Reimbursement. This obligation shall survive any termination of this Agreement, and shall be secured by the collateral under the security agreement being executed in relation to the Loans. (ii) Termination Fee. Seller and CVUSA jointly and severally shall, within five (5) days of such termination, pay $1,625,000 to the Purchaser as a termination fee ("Termination Fee"). This obligation shall survive any termination of this Agreement, and shall be secured by the collateral under the security agreement being executed in relation to the Loans. 14. Specific Performance; Miscellaneous; Conflict Waiver. (a) This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but which together shall constitute one instrument. (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 13(c)(i) and (ii), it is understood and agreed that money damages would not be an adequate remedy for a breach of the Agreement by Seller or CVUSA and that Purchaser shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach. Seller and CVUSA agree to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. Such remedy shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedy for any such breach, but shall be in addition to all other remedies available to Purchaser at law or in equity. (c) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that Willkie Farr & Gallagher regularly acts as counsel for each of them, and consents to the fact that the New York office of such firm will provide corporate (but not FCC) advice to CVUSA and Seller (which will receive FCC advice from other counsel), its Washington office will provide FCC (but not corporate) advice to Purchaser, which is also represented by other counsel in this matter.

The Guarantor, in consideration of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Lender, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to the Lender, as and for the Guarantor's own debt, until final payment has been made: (a) the due and punctual payment by the Borrower of the principal of, and interest on, the Notes at any time outstanding and all other amounts payable, and all other indebtedness owing, by each of the Obligors under (i) each of the Facility Documents to which it is a party and (ii) the Purchase Agreement (all such obligations so guarantied are herein collectively referred to as the "Guarantied Obligations"), in each case when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity, pursuant to mandatory or optional prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise, all in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof and thereof, it being the intent of the Guarantor that the guaranty set forth in this Section 8.01 (the "Unconditional Guaranty") shall be a guaranty of payment and not a guaranty of collection; and (b) the punctual and faithful performance, keeping, observance, and fulfillment by any Obligor of all duties, agreements, covenants and obligations of such Obligor contained in each of the Facility Documents to which it is a party and the Purchase Agreement. Section 8.02. Performance Under This Agreement. In the event the Borrower fails to make, on or before the due date thereof, any payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Notes or of any other amounts payable, or any other indebtedness owing, under any of the Facility Documents or the Purchase 25 Agreement or if the Borrower shall fail to perform, keep, observe, or fulfill any other obligation referred to in clause (a) or clause (b) of Section 8.01 hereof in the manner provided in the Notes or in any of the other Facility Documents or the Purchase Agreement, the Guarantor shall cause forthwith to be paid the moneys, or to be performed, kept, observed, or fulfilled each of such obligations, in respect of which such failure has occurred. Section 8.03. Waivers. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Guarantor does hereby waive: (a) notice of acceptance of the Unconditional Guaranty; (b) notice of any borrowings under this Agreement, or the creation, existence or acquisition of any of the Guarantied Obligations, subject to the Guarantor's right to make inquiry of the Lender to ascertain the amount of the Guarantied Obligations at any reasonable time; (c) notice of the amount of the Guarantied Obligations, subject to the Guarantor's right to make inquiry of the Lender to ascertain the amount of the Guarantied Obligations at any reasonable time; (d) notice of adverse change in the financial condition of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other fact that might increase the Guarantor's risk hereunder; (e) notice of presentment for payment, demand, protest, and notice thereof as to the Notes or any other instrument; (f) notice of any Default or Event of Default; (g) all other notices and demands to which the Guarantor might otherwise be entitled (except if such notice or demand is specifically otherwise required to be given to the Guarantor hereunder or under the other Facility Documents); 26 (h) the right by statute or otherwise to require the Lender to institute suit against the Borrower or to exhaust the rights and remedies of the Lender against the Borrower, the Guarantor being bound to the payment of each and all Guarantied Obligations, whether now existing or hereafter accruing, as fully as if such Guarantied Obligations were directly owing to the Lender by the Guarantor; (i) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense (other than the defense that the Guarantied Obligations shall have been fully and finally performed and indefeasibly paid) of the Borrower or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of the Borrower in respect thereof; and (j) any stay (except in connection with a pending appeal), valuation, appraisal, redemption or extension law now or at any time hereafter in force which, but for this waiver, might be applicable to any sale of Property of the Guarantor made under any judgment, order or decree based on this Agreement, and the Guarantor covenants that it will not at any time insist upon or plead, or in any manner claim or take the benefit or advantage of such law. Until all of the Guarantied Obligations shall have been paid in full, the Guarantor hereby agrees to completely subordinate any right of subrogation, reimbursement, or indemnity whatsoever in respect thereof and any right of recourse to or with respect to any assets or Property of the Borrower. Nothing shall discharge or satisfy the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder except the full and final performance and indefeasible payment of the Guarantied Obligations by the Guarantor as provided herein and the Facility Documents and the Purchase Agreement, upon which the Lender agrees to transfer and assign its interest in the Notes to the Guarantors without recourse, representation or warranty of any kind (other than that the Lender owns the Notes and that the Notes is free of Liens created by the Lender). All of the Guarantied Obligations shall in the manner and subject to the limitations provided herein for the acceleration of the Notes forthwith become due and payable without notice. Section 8.04. Releases. The Guarantor consents and agrees that, without notice to or by it and without affecting or impairing the joint and several obligations of the Guarantor hereunder or under any other Facility Document, the 27 the Lender, in the manner provided herein, by action or inaction, may: (a) compromise or settle, extend the period of duration or the time for the payment, or discharge the performance of, or may refuse to, or otherwise not, enforce, or may, by action or inaction, release all or any one or more parties to, the Notes or the other Facility Documents; (b) grant other indulgences to the Borrower in respect thereof; (c) amend or modify in any manner and at any time (or from time to time) the Notes and the other Facility Documents in accordance with Section 9.01 or otherwise; (d) release or substitute any one or more of the endorsers or guarantors of the Guaranteed Obligations whether parties hereto or any Facility Document or not; and (e) exchange, enforce, waive, or release, by action or inaction, any security for the Guarantied Obligations (including, without limitation, any of the collateral therefor) or any other guaranty of the Notes. Section 8.05. Marshaling. The Guarantor consents and agrees that: (a) the Lender shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Guarantor or against or in payment of any or all of the Guarantied Obligations; and (b) to the extent the Borrower makes a payment or payments to the Lender, which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, or required, for any of the foregoing reasons or for any other reason, to be repaid or paid over to a custodian, trustee, receiver, or any other party under any bankruptcy law, common law, or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment or repayment, the obligation or part thereof intended to be satisfied thereby shall be revived 28 and continued in full force and effect as if said payment or payments had not been made and the Guarantor shall be primarily liable for such obligation. Section 8.06. Liability. The Guarantor agrees that its liability shall not be contingent upon the exercise or enforcement by the Lender of whatever remedies the Lender may have against the Borrower or the Guarantor or the enforcement of any Lien or realization upon any security the Lender may at any time possess. Section 8.07. Unconditional Obligation. The Unconditional Guaranty set forth in this Article 8 is an absolute, unconditional, continuing and irrevocable guaranty of payment and performance and shall remain in full force and effect until the full and final payment of the Guarantied Obligations without respect to future changes in conditions, including change of law or any invalidity or irregularity with respect to the issuance or assumption of any obligations (including, without limitation, the Notes) of or by the Borrower, or with respect to the execution and delivery of any agreement (including, without limitation, the Notes and the other Facility Documents) of the Borrower. Section 8.08. Election to Perform Obligations. Any election by the Guarantor to pay or otherwise perform any of the obligations of the Borrower under the Notes or under any of the other Facility Documents, whether pursuant to this Article 8 or otherwise, shall not release the Borrower or the Guarantor from such obligations or any of its other obligations under the Notes or under any of the other Facility Documents. Section 8.09. No Election. The Lender shall have the right to seek recourse against the Guarantor to the fullest extent provided for herein for the Guarantor's obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, this Article 8) in respect of the Notes. No election to proceed in one form of action or proceeding, or against any party, or on any obligation, shall constitute a waiver of the Lender's right to proceed in any other form of action or proceeding or against other parties unless the Lender has expressly waived such right in writing. Specifically, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no action or proceeding by the Lender against the Borrower under any document or instrument evidencing obligations of the Borrower to the Lender 29 shall serve to diminish the liability of the Guarantor under this Agreement (including, without limitation, this Article 8) except to the extent that the Lender finally and unconditionally shall have realized payment by such action or proceeding, notwithstanding the effect of any such action or proceeding upon the Guarantor's right of subrogation against the Borrower.

Section 8.12. Delay or Omission; No Waiver. No course of dealing on the part of the Lender and no delay or failure on the part of any such Person to exercise any right hereunder (including, without limitation, this Article 8) shall impair such right or operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice such Person's rights, powers and remedies hereunder. Every right and remedy given by the Unconditional Guaranty or by law to the Lender may be exercised from time to time as often as may be deemed expedient by such Person. Section 8.13. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Lender shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under the Unconditional Guaranty, the Notes, the Security Agreement or any other Facility Document or the Purchase Agreement, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined adversely to the Lender, then and in every such case the Lender, the Borrower and each Guarantor shall, except as may be limited or affected by any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to its respective former positions hereunder and thereunder, and thereafter, subject as aforesaid, the rights and remedies 30 of the Lender shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. Section 8.14. Cumulative Remedies. No remedy under this Agreement (including, without limitation, this Article 8), the Notes or any of the other Facility Documents is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, but each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any and every other remedy given hereunder this Agreement (including, without limitation, this Article 8), under the Notes or under any of the other Facility Documents or the Purchase Agreement. Section 8.15. Survival. So long as the Guarantied Obligations shall not have been fully and finally performed and indefeasibly paid, the obligations of the Guarantor under this Article 10 shall survive the transfer and payment of the Notes. ARTICLE 9. MISCELLANEOUS. Section 9.01. Amendments and Waivers. No provision of this Agreement may be amended, waived or modified unless such amendment, waiver or modification is evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by the Obligors and the Lender. No failure on the part of the Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof or preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. Section 9.02. Usury. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required to the extent that receipt thereof would be contrary to provisions of law applicable to the Lender limiting rates of interest which may be charged or collected by the Lender. Section 9.03. Expenses. Each Obligor shall reimburse the Lender on demand for all reasonable costs, expenses, and charges (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and charges of external legal counsel and costs allocated by internal legal departments) incurred by the Lender in connection with the performance or enforcement of this Agreement or the other Facility Documents or 31 the Purchase Agreement. Each Obligor agrees to indemnify the Lender and its directors, officers, employees and agents from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by any of them arising out of or by reason of any investigation or litigation or other proceedings (including any threatened investigation or litigation or other proceedings) relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Facility Documents or the Purchase Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated thereunder or any remedial or other action taken by any Obligor or the Lender in connection with compliance by any Obligor, or any of their respective Properties, with any law, including without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation or litigation or other proceedings (but excluding any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by reason of the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Person to be indemnified).

(a) Parent agrees that the Lender shall not be required to register or qualify any of the Pledged Securities under any applicable state or federal securities laws in connection with any sale thereof if such sale is effected in a manner that complies with all applicable federal and state securities laws. In effecting any such sale, the Lender shall be authorized (if it deems it advisable to do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to three (3) Persons, who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the Pledged Securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof.

(c) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and the sale of the Pledged Securities, the Company and Parent will fully cooperate with the Lender to comply with the rules and regulations of the FCC and other requirements of law to effectuate such sale, including the giving of requisite notices to the FCC and the solicitation of consents therefrom. 3.4 Purchase by the Lender. In the event that the Lender shall purchase all or any portion of the Collateral at any such sale, the Lender may elect to apply a portion of the Obligations owing to it in satisfaction of part of the purchase price of all or such portion of the Collateral so purchased. Such part of the purchase price shall be equal to the amount that would be distributed to the Lender pursuant to Section 3.5 as a result of such purchase if the Lender had paid such purchase price entirely in cash. 3.5 Application of Proceeds. All proceeds realized by the Lender from any sale or other realization on the Collateral shall be applied to the Obligations as follows: First, to the payment of reasonable costs and expenses of foreclosure or suit, if any, and of such sale or other exercise of rights, and of all proper expenses, liabilities and advances, including legal expenses and attorneys' fees (including, without limitation, the allocated costs of staff counsel of the Lender), incurred or made hereunder by the Lender, or any other amounts then due but unpaid to the Lender and of all taxes, assessments or liens superior to the Security Interest, except any taxes, assessments or superior liens subject to which said sale or other disposition may have been made; Second, to the payment of unpaid principal of the Obligations; Third, to the payment of unpaid interest on the principal of the Obligations; 15 Fourth, to the payment of unpaid fees with respect to the Obligations and all other amounts owing under the Loan Agreement to the Persons entitled to payment thereunder; and Fifth, to the payment of the surplus, if any, arising from an exercise of rights with respect to the Collateral, to the Company or Parent, as applicable, their successors and assigns, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. The Company and Parent shall remain liable hereunder for payment of any deficiency on the Obligations after application of such proceeds. 3.6 Remedies Cumulative. All covenants, conditions, provisions, warranties, guaranties, indemnities and other undertakings contained in this Agreement, or in any document referred to herein or contained in any agreement supplementary hereto, shall be deemed cumulative to and not in derogation or substitution of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or agreements herein contained. The failure or delay of the Lender to exercise or enforce any rights, powers or remedies hereunder or under any of the aforesaid agreements or other documents shall not operate as a waiver of such rights, powers and remedies, but all such rights, powers and remedies shall continue in full force and effect until all of the Obligations shall have been fully satisfied, and all rights, powers and remedies herein provided for are cumulative and none is exclusive. No single or partial exercise by the Lender of any right, power or remedy under this Agreement shall preclude the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. 4. APPOINTMENT OF LENDER AS LAWFUL ATTORNEY.

(NASDAQ - WCII) today announced it has agreed to purchase 850 MHz of bandwidth in New York City from CellularVision USA, Inc. (NASDAQ - CVUS). The bandwidth is being disaggregated from CellularVision's LMDS license for the New York area, and will be combined with WinStar's existing 38 GHz licenses to establish a total spectrum position of 1,750 MHz. "Through this transaction, WinStar will have an unprecedented capability to bring 21st century communications services to the most important business and financial market in the world," said William J. Rouhana, Jr., WinStar's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "This is the largest amount of spectrum ever held in a single city, and we expect it will enable us to provide a comprehensive range of high-speed voice, video and data services. Additionally, when the company's point-to-multipoint network architecture is deployed in New York, it will leverage these spectrum assets and enable WinStar to bring fiber-equipment broadband services to thousands of office buildings and multiple dwelling units which have not been directly connected to the emerging information superhighway," added Rouhana. The purchase further solidifies WinStar's industry leadership at a national level, raising the company's average bandwidth in the top 50 U.S. markets above 750 MHz. WinStar's enhanced bandwidth holdings in New York will cover a population of more than 8 million and total approximately 145 million channel pops (covered population times the number of 100 MHz equivalent channels). WinStar has agreed to pay CellularVision $32.5 million in cash for the additional spectrum. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 1998, after FCC approval has been obtained. Additionally, WinStar has agreed to lend $3.5 million to CellularVision as soon as lenders' consents are obtained, and an additional $2.0 million upon the receipt of the approval of the transaction by CellularVision's stockholders and the completion of required FCC filings. The acquired spectrum will not be used to support any of the ongoing services or operations of CellularVision.
