EXHIBIT 10.23
MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT
THIS MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is entered into as of
January 18, 1999 (the "Effective Date") between Nextel Partners Operating Corp.,
a Delaware corporation ("Client") and Wireless Facilities, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("WFI"). (Client and WFI are each hereinafter referred to
individually as a "Party" or collectively as "Parties").
WHEREAS, Client intends to acquire sites and construct facilities in order
to develop and operate a telecommunications network system using the iDEN
technology (the "Project").
WHEREAS, the Parties have reached an agreement whereby WFI will provide
various engineering and site development services to Client in connection with
the Project as requested by Client on an hourly or turnkey basis.
WHEREAS, the Parties entered into a Letter of Intent to Provide
Engineering, Site Development and Construction Management Services dated
September 1, 1998, as extended by the Extension of Letter of Intent to Provide
Engineering, Site Development and Construction Management Services dated
November 6, 1998 (collectively referred to as the "Letter of Intent").
WHEREAS, under the terms of the Letter of Intent, WFI agreed to provide
such various services to Client until the Parties executed this Agreement, which
would supersede and replace the Letter of Intent.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound,
the Parties agree as follows:
1. Description of Services. In accordance with and subject to the terms
-----------------------
and conditions of this Agreement, WFI hereby agrees to provide Client with the
services (the "Services") listed in the executed Work Order(s) on an hourly or
turnkey basis as agreed by the Parties.
2. Term of Agreement. The term of this Agreement shall be [***] years
-----------------
from the Effective Date unless otherwise terminated in accordance with this
Agreement (the "Initial Term"). The term of this Agreement will automatically
renew for successive terms of one (1) year (each, a "Renewal Term") unless
either Party communicates in writing to the other Party, thirty (30) days prior
to expiration of the Initial Term or current Renewal Term, its intention not to
renew the Agreement.
3. Compensation. Client shall pay WFI for all Services assigned by and
------------
rendered to Client pursuant to this Agreement and to any and all Work Orders
issued hereunder, based upon the pricing set forth in Exhibit I, unless a Work
---------
Order specifically sets forth other pricing terms applicable to that particular
Work Order ("Service Fees"). Where Services are compensated based upon fixed or
milestone-based pricing rather than per-hour pricing, all work performed by WFI
at Client's request in addition to the Services specifically set forth in any
particular executed Work Order(s) ("Out-of-Scope Services") shall be compensated
at the hourly rates agreed upon by the Parties and set forth in Exhibit I.

Invoices and Payments.
---------------------
(a) Invoicing terms for compensation of Out-of-Scope Services,
reimbursable expenses and Materials Management Services (as defined in Section 8
below) are set forth in Exhibit I of this Agreement. Unless a Work Order
---------
specifies otherwise, WFI may invoice Client monthly for all Service Fees
(including those for Out-of-Scope Services), whether billed on a milestone basis
or in accordance with WFI's hourly rates, and bi-weekly for any reimbursable
expenses (as described in Exhibit I) and Materials Management Services incurred
---------
in the previous period.
(b) All invoices are due and payable by Client within thirty (30) days of
the date of receipt by Client. Client shall review the invoices and notify WFI
in writing within thirty (30) days of receipt of the invoice of any objection or
question Client may have in connection with the invoice. If any items are
disputed, only the disputed items may be withheld from payment. The remaining
undisputed portion of the invoice shall be paid in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement.
5. Work Orders and Out-of-Scope Authorizations. Client may assign additional
-------------------------------------------
work to WFI by issuing to WFI, from time to time, a signed Work Order, in
substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit II, or in some other format
----------
agreed upon by the Parties. WFI shall begin to render Services to Client after
WFI has indicated its acceptance of the work by countersigning and returning the
Work Order to Client. Each Work Order shall incorporate by reference all of the
terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement; however, in the case of
conflict between the terms of a Work Order and this Agreement, the terms of the
Work Order shall control, but only for the duration of the Services performed
under that particular Work Order. WFI may perform Out-of-Scope Services at
Client's request. In such event, Client and WFI shall execute an Out-of-Scope
Work Authorization, in substantially the form attached as Exhibit III.
-----------
Authorized out-of-scope work will be compensated in accordance with the hourly
rates set forth in Exhibit I, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties and
---------
specified in writing. Client hereby authorizes the officers listed in Exhibit

--
this Agreement. Client shall promptly notify WFI in writing of any changes to
the list of authorized signatories.

-----
obligations with respect to WFI's income derived from its performance of
Services hereunder shall be the obligation of and be paid by WFI. Client shall
pay all other applicable taxes.
7. Subcontractors. WFI may, with the consent of Client, which consent will
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, delegate to subcontractors such duties
as WFI deems necessary for the successful completion of Services performed for
the Project. WFI shall be responsible to Client for the completion of all work
by subcontractors. If Client chooses to contract directly with subcontractor for
work performed for the Project, then Client shall be responsible for the payment
of service fees and expenses of such subcontractors for work performed in
connection with the Project. If WFI contracts directly with subcontractors for
work performed in connection with the Project, and which work is listed as
"CLIENT Provided or Reimbursed" in the Expense Summary section of Exhibit I,
then Client shall be invoiced and shall reimburse WFI for the service fees and
expenses of subcontractors at cost plus an administrative fee in accordance with
the terms of Exhibit I.

may submit the matter to binding arbitration in accordance with the terms set
forth in Paragraph 11 of this Agreement.
11. Arbitration of Disputes. All claims, whenever brought and whether
-----------------------

affiliated businesses of the other Party shall be resolved by binding
arbitration in accordance with this Paragraph; provided that the Parties have
first complied with the procedures of Paragraphs 4, 10 and 17 hereof, as
applicable.
(a) A single, mutually agreeable arbitrator engaged in the practice of
law and knowledgeable about telecommunications law and engineering practices

Agreement, Breach shall mean the following:
(i) Breach by Client. Client's failure to timely pay undisputed
----------------
invoiced fees and reimbursable expenses in accordance with
the procedures set forth in this Agreement. In the event of
Client's failure to pay, WFI shall have the right to suspend

Services assigned to WFI pursuant to a fully executed Work
Order.
(c) Termination in Event of Default. Either Party may terminate this
-------------------------------
Agreement immediately upon written notice to the other Party under any of the
following circumstances, each of which shall constitute an Event of Default:

proceeding, whether voluntary or involuntary, under the bankruptcy or insolvency
laws of the United States or any other jurisdiction, unless such proceeding is
dismissed or withdrawn within forty-five (45) days of the non-defaulting Party's

(d) Procedure upon Expiration or Termination. Upon the expiration or
----------------------------------------
termination of this Agreement, WFI shall promptly return to Client, or destroy,
as Client may direct, all of Client's property in WFI's possession. If Client
issues a notice of termination for any reason, WFI shall be entitled to payment
and reimbursement, respectively, for its Services rendered and reasonable
expenses incurred in connection with the Project up to the effective date of
termination of this Agreement, pursuant to its invoices therefor, provided that,
-------------
if the Services are compensated in accordance with a schedule of payment or
performance milestones, then Client shall compensate WFI for all post-milestone

subcontractors or suppliers, or (b) beyond that Party's reasonable control (such
as, without limitation, a Year 2000 Problem affecting a government entity). IN
PARTICULAR, A PARTY SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR ANY DAMAGES, INCLUDING DIRECT,
INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES

----------------------
contractor in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement. WFI shall

employees or agents of Client. Nothing herein shall be deemed to create any
other relationship between the Parties, including, without limitation, a
partnership, agency, employer-employee or attorney-client relation. WFI shall be
solely liable for all matters relating to compensation, unemployment, disability
insurance, social security, withholding and all other federal, state and local
laws, rules and regulations governing such matters. WFI will honor Client's

Page 5 of 15
employee of WFI from the Project, provided that Client has first submitted a
written request to WFI setting forth lawful and reasonable reasons for such
request.
16. Solicitation of Employees. WFI and Client agree that, during the term
-------------------------
of this Agreement and for [***] thereafter, neither Party shall solicit nor
accept for employment any employees of the other Party who have worked on or
performed Services in connection with the Project, without first obtaining the
express written consent of the other Party.
17. Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be liable for any delay or failure
-------------
in performing its obligations hereunder that is due to circumstances beyond such
Party's reasonable control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, civil
unrest, riots, war, fire, floods, explosions and strikes or other concerted acts
of labor (each, a "Force Majeure Event"). Upon the occurrence of a Force Majeure
Event, the Party whose performance is affected shall give written notice to the
other Party describing the affected performance. The Parties shall promptly
confer, in good faith, to agree upon equitable, reasonable action to minimize
the impact of the condition on both Parties. The Parties agree that the Party
whose performance is affected shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
minimize the delay caused by the Force Majeure Event and recommence the affected
performance. In the event that the delay caused by the Force Majeure Event lasts
for a period of more than thirty (30) days, the Parties shall negotiate an
equitable modification to this Agreement with respect to the affected
performance. If the Parties are unable to agree upon an equitable modification
within fifteen (15) days after such thirty (30) day period has expired, then
either Party shall be entitled to serve thirty (30) days notice of termination
on the other Party with respect to only the affected performance. If the Force
Majeure Event for such affected performance continues upon the expiration of
such thirty (30) day notice period the portion of this Agreement relating to the
affected performance shall automatically terminate. The remaining portion of
this Agreement that does not involve the affected performance shall continue in
full force and effect.
18. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. THE PARTIES' RIGHTS, LIABILITIES AND
-----------------------
RESPONSIBILITIES WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES SHALL BE EXCLUSIVELY THOSE

SERVICE; BUSINESS INTERRUPTION; AND INCREASED COSTS OF OPERATION, MAINTENANCE OR
STAFFING.

signed by the authorized representative of each Party.
20. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue. Except as may apply
------------------------------------------------
to claims submitted to arbitration under Paragraph 11, this Agreement shall be
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington, irrespective
of its conflict of law principles. Each Party hereby agrees to the jurisdiction
of and venue in the courts in Seattle, Washington for any suit, action or
proceeding between the Parties that arises out of this
Page 6 of 15
Agreement or the Parties' performance of their obligations hereunder, and
expressly agrees to waive any defense thereto.
21. Severability. If any provision or any part of a provision of this
------------
Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable, then the remaining portions of

party only with the prior written consent of the other Party, except that an
assignment to a third party that controls, is controlled by, is under common
control with, or is the legal successor of the assigning Party shall not require
the non-assigning Party's consent. Any assignment of rights or delegation of
duties under this Agreement by a Party will not release that Party from its
obligations hereunder.

Exhibits attached hereto, constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties
