Agreement. All electronic price quotes shall be binding on Seller

                        Lucent Technologies Proprietary

<PAGE>
 
Article 4.1 of this General Agreement, no standard terms and conditions

and conditions of this General Agreement.

Seller's concurrence. Electronic orders shall be binding on Customer
notwithstanding the absence of a signature. All orders are subject to acceptance
or rejection by Seller within 15 business days. If Seller does not accept or
reject an order of Customer within this 15 day period, such order will be deemed
to have been accepted by Seller. Seller reserves the right to place any order on
hold, delay shipment, and/or reject any order due to, Customer's insufficient
Creditworthiness. Customer shall be deemed creditworthy unless Customer's
account with Seller is not paid in full in a timely fashion with the exception
of invoices in dispute or unless Seller shall have other indicia of lack of
creditworthiness and Customer is unable to provide reasonable assurances that it
can meet its obligations to Seller.

1.6  CHANGES IN CUSTOMER'S ORDERS:

          Material changes by Customer to an accepted order shall be treated as 
a separate order unless the parties expressly agree otherwise. If any such
change affects Seller's ability to meet its obligations under the original
order, any price (or discount, if applicable), shipment date or Services
completion date quoted by Seller with respect to such original order is subject
to change.

1.7  PRICES:

          To the extent Customer's order is subject to a firm price quotation 
made by Seller, prices, fees and charges (hereinafter "prices") shall be as set 
forth in Seller's firm price quotation. In all other cases, prices shall be as 
set forth in Seller's Customer Price Lists. In those cases where the price is to
be determined from a Customer Price List, the applicable Price List shall be the
issue which is in effect on the date of Seller's receipt of the order provided
that the shipment or Services commencement date is in accordance with Seller's
published shipping or planning interval or thirty (30) days from the date of 
order receipt, whichever is longer. Prices for Products or Services to be 
shipped or performed beyond the published shipping interval will be established 
by determining an effective order entry date (the date required for order entry 
by Seller in accordance with Customer's requested date) and applying the price 
from the applicable Customer Price List as of that date. Seller may amend its 
prices, other than those subject to firm price quotations, and agrees to provide
thirty (30) days written notice of any increase in prices contained in Seller's 
Customer Price Lists. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Seller is delayed from
completion of an order due to any material change requested by Customer or as a
result of Customer's delay in furnishing material information or in performing
its material obligations. Seller shall give customer written notice of such non-
performance or delay and a 15 day opportunity to cure such non-performance of
delay. If Customer fails to cure such non-performance or delay, within this 15
day cure period, then prices are subject to change. Unless expressly stated in
writing, Seller's prices are exclusive of charges for transportation and other
related Services, and any sales or other tax or duty which Seller may be
required to collect or pay upon the ordered transaction. Seller, in accordance
with its normal practices, will arrange for prepaid transportation, if
appropriate, and invoice transportation charges back to Customer. Premium
transportation will be used only with Customer's concurrence.

1.8  INVOICES AND TERMS OF PAYMENT:

          Products and Licensed Materials (including transportation charges and 
taxes, if applicable) will be billed by Seller when shipped, or as soon 
thereafter as practicable. Engineering will be billed upon main shipment of 
Products. Installation will be billed upon execution by Customer of a notice of 
completion or as soon thereafter as practical. ********************************

1.9  SHIPPING AND PACKING:

          Seller shall, at no additional charge, pack Products in accordance 
with its standard practices for domestic shipments. Where, in order to meet 
Customer's requests, Seller packs Products in other than the more expensive of 
its normal manner or industry standards for domestic shipment, Customer shall 
pay Seller's additional charges for such packing.

1.10 TAXES:

          Customer shall be liable for and shall reimburse Seller for all taxes 
and related charges, however designated, (excluding taxes on Seller's net 
income) imposed upon or based upon the provision, sale, license or use of 
Products, Licensed Materials or Services (if applicable). Such taxes shall be 
separately listed on the invoice. Seller shall not collect the otherwise 
applicable state sales tax if the front of Customer's order indicates that the 
purchase or license is exempt from Seller's collection of such tax and a valid 
tax exemption certificate is furnished by Customer to Seller. Seller's failure 
to collect taxes in accordance herewith shall not be deemed to be an 
authorization to resell Products or Services or sublicense Licensed Materials.

1.11 TITLE AND RISK OF LOSS:

          Title (except as provided in the clauses USE OF INFORMATION and TITLE,
RESTRICTIONS, AND CONFIDENTIALITY) and risk of loss to Products and Licensed 
Materials shall pass to Customer upon delivery to the Customer. Customer shall 
notify Seller promptly of any claim with respect to loss which occurs while 
Seller has the risk of loss and shall cooperate in every reasonable way to 
facilitate the settlement of any claim. For purposes of this clause, "delivery" 
shall mean the point at which Seller or Seller's supplier or agent turns over 
possession of the Product or Licensed Materials to Customer, Customer's 
employee, Customer's warehouse, or other Customer's agent and not necessarily 
the final destination shown on the order. Customer shall not designate which 
transportation carrier to use for any shipment.

1.12 PURCHASE MONEY SECURITY INTEREST:

          Seller reserves and Customer agrees that Seller shall have a purchase 
money security interest in Products or Licensed Materials furnished under this 
Agreement until such time as Seller has been paid in full. Customer also agrees 
that this Agreement may be filed as a financing statement (or as other evidence 
of the Seller's purchase money security interest) with any state or local 
jurisdiction. Customer shall execute and deliver a financing statement or such 
other documents prepared by Seller so that Seller may perfect its security 
interest. When Seller has been paid in full for such products, Seller shall 
execute and deliver a UCC-3 prepared by Customer if a purchase money security 
interest document was filed by the Seller, so that such liens may be released 
and terminated.

1.13 WARRANTY:

          Seller warrants to Customer only, that (i) upon receipt by Customer
Seller's Manufactured Products (exclusive of Software) will be free from defects
in material and workmanship and will conform to Seller's Specifications for such
Products; (ii) upon receipt by Customer, Software developed by Seller will be
free from those defects which materially affect performance in accordance with
Seller's Specifications; and (iii) Services will be performed in a workmanlike
manner and in accordance with good usage and accepted practices in the community
in which Services are provided. With respect to Products or Software or partial
assembly of Products furnished by Seller but neither manufactured by Seller nor
purchased by Seller pursuant to its procurement specifications ("Vendor Items"),
Seller, to the extent permitted, does hereby assign to Customer the warranties
given to Seller by its vendor(s) of such Vendor Items. If any vendor does not
allow the assignment of such warranty, Seller will notify Customer so that
Customer may arrange to purchase Products or Software directly from the vendor.

design modifications, specifications, drawings, or written instructions which 
Seller is directed by Customer to follow, but only if such alleged infringement

Materials of Seller's design or selection; or (2) arises from adherence to 
instructions to apply Customer's trademark, trade name or other company 
identification; or (3) resides in a Product or Licensed Materials which are not

                           NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT
                           ------------------------

This Agreement is made and entered into effective _____________, 1996 by and 
between __________________, a corporation with an office located at _______
__________________________________ (the "Corporation") and Lucent Technologies
Inc., a Delaware corporation with offices located at 600 Mountain Avenue, Murray

Whereas, both parties, for their mutual benefit, desire to have Lucent disclose 
to the Corporation certain specifications, designs, plans, drawings, software, 
data, prototypes, or other business and/or technical information related to the 
operation and use of Products and Licensed Materials provided or being 
considered by Excel Switch Facility Inc. or its affiliates ("INFORMATION"), 
which INFORMATION is proprietary to Lucent or its affiliated companies.

Now therefore, the Corporation and Lucent agree as follows:

1.   This Agreement pertains to INFORMATION disclosed from the effective date 
and shall continue for a period of three (3) years unless terminated earlier in 
writing by both parties. The Corporation, shall hold such INFORMATION in 
confidence, shall use such INFORMATION only for the purpose of providing support
and consulting services to Excel Switch Facility Inc. or its affiliates, shall 
reproduce such INFORMATION only to the extent necessary for such purpose, shall 
restrict disclosure of such INFORMATION to its employees with a need to know 
(and advise such employees of the obligations assumed herein), and shall not 
disclose such INFORMATION to any third party without prior written approval of 
Lucent.

These restrictions on the use or disclosure of INFORMATION shall not apply to 
                                                                 ---
any INFORMATION:

     i.   which is independently developed by the Corporation or lawfully
     received free of restriction from another source having the right to so
     furnish such INFORMATION; or

     ii.  after it has become generally available to the public without breach 
     of this Agreement by the Corporation; or

     iii. which at the time of disclosure to the Corporation was known to the
     Corporation free of restriction as evidenced by documentation in the
     Corporation's possession; or

     iv.  which Lucent agrees in writing is free of such restrictions.
<PAGE>
 
2.   No license, under any trademark, patent, copyright, mask work protection 
right or any other intellectual property right, is either granted or implied by 
the conveying of INFORMATION to the Corporation. None of the INFORMATION which 
may be disclosed by Lucent shall constitute any representation, warranty,
assurance, guarantee, or inducement by Lucent of any kind, and, in particular,
with respect to the non-infringement of trademarks, patents, copyrights, mask 
work protection rights, or any other intellectual property rights, or other 
rights of third persons.

3.   Neither this Agreement nor the disclosure or receipt of INFORMATION shall 
constitute or imply any promise or intention to enter into any contract or other
business relationship or to make any purchase of products or services by either 
party or its affiliated companies or to make any commitment by either party or 
its affiliated companies with respect to the present or future marketing of any 
product or service.

4.   All INFORMATION shall be returned upon written request or upon the 
Corporation's determination that it no longer has a need for such INFORMATION.

5.   The Corporation acknowledges that any products, software, and technical 
information (including, but not limited to, services and training) provided 
under this Agreement are subject to U.S. export laws and regulations and any use
or transfer of such products, software, and technical information must be 
authorized under those regulations. Corporation agrees that it will not use, 
distribute, transfer, or transmit the products, software, or technical 
information (even if incorporated into other products) except in compliance with
U.S. export regulations. If requested by Lucent, Corporation also agrees to sign
written assurances and other export-related documents as may be required for 
Lucent to comply with U.S. export regulations.

6.   The Corporation agrees that all of its obligations undertaken herein shall 
survive and continue after any termination of this Agreement.

7.   This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between the parties
hereto as to the INFORMATION and merges all prior discussions between them
relating thereto.

8.   No amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be valid or binding on
the parties unless made in writing and signed on behalf of each of the parties 
by their respective duly authorized officers or representatives.

9.   This Agreement shall be construed under and governed by the substantive 
laws of the State of New Jersey.

10.  If a dispute arises with respect to this Agreement, either party may submit
the dispute to a sole mediator selected by the parties or, at any time, to 
mediation by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). If not thus resolved,
it may be referred by either party to a sole arbitrator selected by the parties
or to AAA arbitration. The arbitration shall be governed by the United States
Arbitration Act and judgment on the award may be entered by any court having
jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall not limit, expand or modify the terms of the
Agreement nor award damages in excess of compensatory damages, and each party
waives any claim to such excess damages. A request by a party to a court for
interim protection shall not affect either party's obligation hereunder to
mediate and arbitrate. Each party shall bear its own expenses and an equal share
of all cost and fees of the mediation and/or arbitration. Any mediator or
arbitrator selected shall be competent in the legal and technical aspects of the
subject matter of this Agreement. The content and result of mediation and/or
arbitration shall be held in confidence by all participants, each of whom will
be bound by an appropriate confidentiality agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement.
