TERMINATE YOUR TERM SERVICE PLAN BEFORE THE END OF THE TERM, OR IF WE TERMINATE
SERVICES FOR CAUSE BEFORE THE END OF THE TERM, YOU WILL BE REQUIRED TO PAY THE
EARLY TERMINATION FEE ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR TERM SERVICE PLAN. No early termination
fee is charged if you terminate a Term Service Plan in accordance with the return policy associated
with your Term Service Plan. After the expiration of the term, the Terms relating to Non-Term
Service Plans apply.
Termination. General. Regardless of whether you have a Non-Term or a Term Service Plan, we may
terminate or suspend Services to you without liability if: (1) you breach any provision of this
Agreement (including if you fail to pay any charges for Services); or (2) you fail to pay any charges
due us for equipment or otherwise. If Services are terminated before the end of your current
invoicing cycle, we will not prorate the monthly recurring charge to the date of termination, and
you will not receive a credit or refund for any unused minutes in your Service Plan.
Use of Services and Equipment; Availability. You must be at least 18 years old to subscribe to our
Services. 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. Your PCS Phone will not accept the services
of any wireless provider other than Sprint (but see Roaming). 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.
Coverage. Most services are only available within the operating range of the Sprint Nationwide
PCS Network (also see Roaming). Coverage is not available everywhere. Coverage and quality of
Services may be affected by conditions within or beyond our control, including network problems,
signal strength, your equipment, and atmospheric, geographic, or topographic conditions. We do
not guarantee service availability or that there will be no interruptions or delays in Services (e.g.,
dropped calls, blocked calls, etc.).

the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. We may change the Number without compensation by giving
you prior notice. You do not own the Number. You may not modify the Number we program into
any phone or other equipment, transfer or duplicate the Number to any phone or other equipment
other than that authorized by us, or transfer the Number to any other individual or entity.
Phone Activation Fee. You 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, have your current Number
changed, we activate a different phone on your existing account or your Service Plan says so.
