SAR values at or below the federal standard of 1.6 W/kg* are considered safe for use by the public. All wireless phones and phone modules must meet this federal standard, which incorporates a substantial margin of safety. THE SB3000 MODEL WIRELESS PHONE MODULE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Section 17176 Knowing Performance and Safety GuidelinesYour wireless phone module is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones, modems, and other wireless phone modules employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg*. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the FCC with the phone or module transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone or module while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone or module is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. Before a phone, modem, or other phone module model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this model when tested for use at the ear is:

Terms and Conditions & Warranty Information 181 Warranty/Terms and Conditions 18 18 18Provision of ServiceYour purchase of Sprint PCS phones or other equipment does not mean that we must provide Services to you. We may decide not to provide Services to you for any lawful reason. We may request that you provide us with any information we reasonably require to determine whether you qualify for Services. Services in some areas are managed and provided under contract with Sprint PCS by independent affiliates with access to the Sprint PCS Network. Some Services may not be available or may operate differently in certain affiliate markets.Credit VerificationYou must have and keep satisfactory credit to receive and continue to receive Services. We will verify your credit before agreeing to provide Services to you and we may verify your credit at any time while we provide Services to you. Credit verification may include a review of credit reports that we receive from commercially available credit bureaus. We may require a guaranty of payment by an individual or entity approved by us. If at any time we determine, in our sole discretion, that payment for Services may not be made when due, we may suspend Services to your module and require that you provide payment on account or a guarantee of payment before we resume Services to your module.Changes to AgreementWe may change this Agreement at any time (but see Service Plans). Any changes to the Terms are effective when we provide you with notice. If you use our Services or make any payment to us on or after the effective date of the changes, you accept the changes. If you do not accept the changes, you may terminate Services (but see Termination; Changing Service Plans). For purposes of the Agreement, "use" includes keeping the right to access the Sprint PCS Network by not terminating Services. You may not modify
Section 18182 Terms and Conditions & Warranty Informationthe Agreement except for your Service Plan (see Termination; Changing Service Plans).Service PlanYou may be eligible for a fixed length Service Plan ("Term Service Plan") or for a month-to-month Service Plan ("Non-Term Service Plan"). We determine the Service Plan for which you qualify. We may offer non-identical Service Plans to different individuals or entities. Services and coverage under some Service Plans may be more limited as compared to other Service Plans. Your Service Plan sets out the charges for Services and is your Service Plan until that Service Plan is changed, you switch to a different Service Plan, or your Services terminate. Your Service Plan may require that you make a deposit, prepayment, or a series of deposits or prepayments, or be subject to an account spending limit, before Services are activated or maintained.Changing Service PlansIf you are on a Non-Term Service Plan, you may change to a different Service Plan for which you qualify by contacting us. Any change is effective at the start of your next full invoicing cycle unless otherwise specified by us at the time that you place your change order. If you change or add a different Service Plan or service feature and the change is effective prior to the start of your next full invoicing cycle, you will be invoiced a prorated amount for the period during the previous invoicing cycle that the new Service Plan or service feature was effective. We may require a service charge for implementing any change directed by you and the Service Plan or optional service features you selected. If you are on a Term Service Plan, your ability to change to another Service Plan may be limited and we may require you to pay a termination fee as set out in your Service Plan.

We may require you to provide proof of your age and identity. If you are under 18 years old you may be eligible for certain Services that have Account Spending Limits if a person 18 years or older is also named as a subscriber on the Account. Services and equipment may not be used for any unlawful, fraudulent or abusive purpose. By requesting Services, you agree that you will not use Services and equipment in any unlawful, fraudulent or abusive manner. You may not resell or lease Services or equipment to anyone. Services are available within the operating range of the Sprint PCS Network. Coverage and quality of Services may be affected by conditions beyond our control, including atmospheric, geographic, or topographic conditions. We do not guarantee that there will be no interruptions or delays in Services. Your Sprint PCS Communicator will not accept the services of any wireless provider other than Sprint PCS (but see Roaming).NumberWe assign a phone number ("Number") to the phone or other equipment used by you on the Sprint PCS Network. We may change the Number by giving you prior notice. You do not own the Number. You may not (1) modify the Number we program into any phone or other equipment, (2) transfer or duplicate the Number to any phone or other equipment other than that authorized by us, or (3) transfer the Number to any other individual or entity.Phone Activation FeeYou may be required to pay a non-refundable phone activation fee when you activate a new Number, have us switch a Number to a different phone, or we activate a different phone on your existing account. Details on any applicable phone activation fee are set out in your Service
Section 18184 Terms and Conditions & Warranty InformationPlan or can be obtained by calling Sprint PCS Customer Care. ChargesYou must pay, by each invoice due date, all charges for Services provided to the Number for each phone or other equipment that our records show you activated no matter who actually uses or has possession of the phone or other equipment at the time Services are provided. These charges include, but are not limited to, recurring monthly service charges, applicable local and long-distance toll charges, usage charges, connection fees, roaming charges, directory assistance, call completion charges, optional features you select at an extra cost, and taxes and other regulatory related charges. Charges for a completed call from your Number that is dialed manually begin when you press the TALK (or similar key) and end when the call is terminated by either party. You are invoiced for completed calls to your Number from the time shortly before the module starts ringing until the call is terminated by either party. Charges for most Services are incurred in one-minute increments, with partial minutes of use rounded up to the next highest minute. Certain Service Plans do not include itemized message transmission detail, even for measured service. Other Services are invoiced on a recurring monthly flat rate charge and you do not receive itemized message transmission detail on them. Voice CommandThe Sprint PCS Voice Command feature an optional service that allows you to place calls without manually dialing by using speech recognition technology. Calls to 911 or similar emergency numbers cannot be placed through the Voice Command feature. Airtime and applicable long distance charges for a call completed from your Number that is dialed using the Voice Command feature begin when you press or activate the TALK or similar key (including the ## keys for making subsequent calls) and end when your call
Terms and Conditions & Warranty Information 185 Warranty/Terms and Conditions 18 18 18is terminated by hitting the END key or by returning to the Voice Command platform. If you initiate and complete a subsequent call without leaving the Voice Command platform, a separate charge for that call will begin from the time the previous call was terminated. Airtime and applicable long distance charges will be applied to the entire length of a completed call initiated from the Voice Command feature, including the entire amount of time spent interacting with the Voice Command platform. Using Directory Assistance to input names into your Voice Command address book will incur additional charges. Details on charges for the Voice Command feature can be found in the marketing materials for this feature or by calling Sprint PCS Customer Care. InvoicingInvoicing cycles are approximately 30 days in length. Invoicing cycles and dates may change from time to time. Except as otherwise provided in your Service Plan, monthly recurring charges (MRCs) are invoiced one invoicing cycle in advance. Airtime is invoiced retroactively to the first minute based on your Service Plan for your total usage in your invoicing cycle. Charges for Services are usually invoiced as soon as possible after the charges accrue (unless you are receiving Services under a Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plan). We may, however, invoice you for usage and charges occurring before the invoicing cycle being invoiced, if they were not previously invoiced. If you are invoiced for usage incurred during a prior invoicing cycle, those minutes will be applied to your Service Plan minutes for the current invoicing cycle. However, if you change your Service Plan between the time the usage was incurred and the beginning of the current invoicing cycle, those minutes from the prior invoicing cycle will be charged at the applicable per minute overage rate set out in the Service Plan in effect at the time the usage was incurred.
Section 18186 Terms and Conditions & Warranty InformationPaymentIf you have authorized payment for Services or equipment by credit card or by debiting a bank account, no additional notice or consent is required before we invoice the credit card or debit the bank account for all amounts (including any late charges, taxes or other regulatory related charges) due to us or billed by us on behalf of a third party. You must promptly notify us of any change in your invoicing address or of the credit card or bank account used for payment. We reserve the right to require payment by money order, cashier’s check or other secured form of payment. If we take action to receive payment beyond invoicing you for charges for Services or equipment, you must pay our costs and expenses of collection, including attorneys’ fees and expenses, the fees of any collection agency and court costs. If we act as an invoicing agent for a third-party service provider, payments received are first applied to amounts due and owing to us and any remaining amounts are applied to sums due and owing to the third-party service provider. We may charge an additional fee for any check or other negotiable instrument endorsed by you and returned unpaid by a financial institution for any reason.Late Payment ChargesPayment is past due if we do not receive it by the due date shown on your invoice. Any payment for Services and equipment not made when due accrues late charges until paid at the rate of 1.5% per month or at the highest rate allowed by law. Late charges are prorated daily for each day that payment is past due, but are not compounded monthly. Acceptance of late or partial payments (even if marked "paid in full") does not waive our right to collect all amounts that you owe us.Disputed ChargesYou must raise any dispute that you have about any charges invoiced to you within 15 days of the date of the invoice or you have accepted the invoice. You may notify us of any
Terms and Conditions & Warranty Information 187 Warranty/Terms and Conditions 18 18 18dispute by calling Sprint PCS Customer Care. Calls to our sales or general business offices are not notice of a dispute. You do not have to pay any properly disputed amounts while we investigate them; however, you must pay amounts not in dispute by the due date. If disputed invoice procedures are described on the invoice, you must follow them.Termination. Non-Term Service Plan. If you are on a Non-Term Service Plan you may terminate Services at any time by giving us notice. We may terminate Services at any time, with or without notice (subject to this Agreement). We may deactivate any Number before you receive notice of termination (if we give any notice) without liability to you. Termination by either of us may be with or without cause.Termination. Term Service Plan. If you are on a Term Service Plan, (1) your ability to terminate Services before the end of the term is limited, (2) your ability to change to another Service Plan before the end of the term may be limited and may result in a termination and/or activation fee, (3) you may be required to pay a termination fee as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, (4) we may not terminate Services without cause before the end of the term and (5) if we terminate Services for cause before the end of the term you may be required to pay a termination fee as liquidated damages. No termination fee is charged if you terminate a Term Service Plan within 14 days of activation of your Sprint PCS Communicator. During the term we must give each other notice to terminate Services. At and after the expiration of the term, you may terminate Services at any time by giving us notice and we may subject to this Agreement terminate Services at any time, with or without notice.
Section 18188 Terms and Conditions & Warranty InformationTermination. General. Regardless of whether you have a Non-Term or a Term Service Plan, we may terminate or suspend Services to you without liability (1) if you breach any provision of this Agreement (including if you fail to pay any charges for Services) or (2) if you fail to pay any charges due us for equipment or otherwise. If you promptly cure the breach, we may, but are not obligated to, reactivate Services to you. You must pay all charges for (1) Services provided before termination of a Number and (2) equipment, regardless of who terminates Services. If Services are terminated before the end of your current invoicing cycle, (1) the monthly recurring charge is not prorated to the date of termination, and (2) you will not receive a credit or refund for any unused minutes in your Service Plan. Account Spending LimitIf we agree to provide Services to you on an Account Spending Limit basis, we will tell you your Account Spending Limit before we start Services to your Number, or as reasonably practicable after the limit is imposed. If we require a deposit for you to establish or keep Services on an Account Spending Limit basis, we will hold the deposit as partial guarantee of payment for Services (see Deposits, below). Charges for Services accrue against your Account Spending Limit as they are incurred. We may suspend Services to your Number without prior notice to you when your account balance reaches your Account Spending Limit. Services are restored when you have paid any past due balance and pay a specified minimum amount to reduce your account balance below your Account Spending Limit. We may change this minimum amount at any time upon notice to you. You may pay any past due balance and the minimum amount by any method authorized by Sprint PCS. Call Sprint PCS Customer Care for information about authorized methods of making these payments. If we provide Services to you on an Account Spending Limit basis,
Terms and Conditions & Warranty Information 189 Warranty/Terms and Conditions 18 18 18Services and coverage may be limited in certain ways. You must pay all charges for Services even if they exceed the amount of your Account Spending Limit.DepositsIf we require a deposit for you to establish or keep Services, we will hold the deposit as partial guarantee of payment for Services. We may change the deposit amount at any time to reflect revised estimated monthly charges based upon your usage. A deposit may not be used to pay any invoice (unless it is used to pay a final invoice) or delay payment. The deposit amount, the length of time we hold the deposit and changes to the deposit amount are determined based on your credit and payment history. The rate of interest on the deposit is subject to change. We may mix deposits with our other funds. If Services are terminated for any reason, we may, without notice to you, apply your deposit toward payment of outstanding charges and any excess is returned to you at your last known address within 75 days after termination of Services. If the U.S. Postal Service cannot deliver the money to you and returns it to us, we will hold it for you for one year from the date of return and we may charge a monthly servicing fee against the deposit balance. Any money held during this one-year period will not accrue interest for your benefit. You forfeit any portion of the money left after the one-year period.Prepaid Service Plans. General. (Prepaid Services are not available in Southern California, Hawaii or certain Sprint PCS affiliate markets.) If we provide Services to you on a Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plan, you may be required to pay an Initial Prepaid Service Fee to establish your prepaid account with us. This Initial Prepaid Service Fee is non-refundable and does not apply against charges for phone calls you make or receive or service charges. You must keep a positive balance in your prepaid account in order to make or receive calls. The balance in your prepaid account is reduced by daily or
Section 18190 Terms and Conditions & Warranty Informationmonthly service charges (or both), in addition to the charges for the phone calls you make and receive. Charges for Prepaid Services are invoiced in one-minute increments and deducted from your prepaid account balance. Partial minutes of use are rounded up to the next highest minute. If you add additional options to your prepaid account, the monthly charges for them will be deducted from your prepaid account which could bring your account balance to $0 or below. When you have used all of the money in your prepaid account, Services are suspended until you add money to your account. You may add money to your prepaid account by any means we agree to accept (e.g. Sprint PCS Prepaid Wireless Cards). If you do not have any money in your prepaid account for 45 consecutive days, you will have to pay a reconnection fee to restore Services. During this 0-45 day period with a $0 balance, your daily or monthly service charges (or both) will continue to accrue and you must pay any accrued charges plus a reconnection fee before Services are restored. If you do not have any money in your prepaid account for 90 consecutive days, we close the account. If you wish to restore Services in the future, you will be subject to current Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plan availability and the current Terms; in addition, you may be charged a reactivation fee. If you call us toll-free at 1-888-263-9695, we can provide information about adding money to your prepaid account, the fees for restoring or reactivating Services, Number availability and balance information. You must pay all charges for Services used by you whether or not they are more than the amount of money in your prepaid account. Services and coverage under Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plans may be more limited than under other Service Plans. Money in your prepaid account may be mixed with our money. We do not pay interest on money in your prepaid account. We do not refund unused money in your prepaid account and will not transfer unused money to anyone else or any other Sprint PCS prepaid or non-prepaid account.
Terms and Conditions & Warranty Information 191 Warranty/Terms and Conditions 18 18 18Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plans (Daily Service Charge)If your Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plan has a Daily Service Charge, it is deducted from your prepaid account once each day, which could bring your account balance to $0 or below. You can avoid disruption in Services by keeping a positive balance in your account. Even if your account balance reaches $0, the Daily Service Charge continues to accrue for 45 consecutive days, causing your account balance to become negative. After 45 consecutive days with a $0 or negative balance, we will charge you a reconnection fee in addition to the accrued Daily Service Charge to restore Services.Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plans (Monthly Service Charge)If your Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plan has a Monthly Service Charge, it is deducted from your prepaid account on the first day of each month. This could bring our account balance to $0 or below. You can avoid disruption in Services by adding enough money to your account before the end of each month to cover the Monthly Service Charge and keep a positive balance in your account.Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plans(No Monthly Service Charge)If your Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plan does not have a Monthly Service Charge and you have not added money to your account for 60 consecutive days, your account balance is forfeited. If you add money to your prepaid account within the 60 day period, your prior account balance and the money added are carried forward for another 60 consecutive days.Prepaid Wireless CardsEach Sprint PCS Prepaid Wireless Card has an expiration date on it. If you purchase a Sprint PCS Prepaid Wireless Card and have a Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plan, you can
Section 18192 Terms and Conditions & Warranty Informationonly use the card to add money to your prepaid account. The card must be used to add money to your prepaid account before the card’s expiration date. If you obtain a promotional Sprint PCS Prepaid Wireless Card and do not have a Sprint PCS Prepaid Service Plan, you can use the card to make prepaid phone calls that will not show up on your monthly invoice. You will not be able to use the card after the expiration date or 60 consecutive days after making your first call using the card (whichever comes first).Wireless Web ServicesWireless Web Services are part of the Services that can be obtained through Sprint PCS. Wireless Web Services may not be immediately available in some Sprint PCS affiliate markets.

Roaming rates may be different from and higher than the rates you pay for calls within your Sprint PCS Home Service Area and on the Sprint PCS Network. Roaming charges are invoiced according to the practices of the roaming service provider. When roaming, you are subject to the limitation of liability provisions and other applicable rules imposed by the roaming service provider on its own subscribers or on roamers.Interruption of ServiceWe may give credit for a continuous interruption of Services for more than 24 hours on a case-by-case basis. Interruptions caused by your negligent or willful actions, or by failure of equipment or service not provided by us, or by causes beyond our reasonable control, do not qualify for credit. We may provide you with an airtime credit of one minute for a call that is disconnected because of transmission limitations caused by atmospheric, geographic or topographic conditions and that you redial within one minute of disconnection. You must notify us within 24 hours of the disconnection to request credit.Phones and Other EquipmentPhones and other equipment may be purchased and returned as provided in the purchase documents. We are not the manufacturer of the phones or other equipment and the only warranties on the phones or other equipment are any limited warranties extended by the manufacturers.

If the equipment is later found, we may require that you exchange it for another phone or other equipment before we reactivate Services (if we do reactivate Services), as well as require you to pay a reactivation fee.
