FCC Form 442, Item 7

This experimental license will cover the continued development, testing and
demonstration of experimental and prototype equipment for applications covered in Part
101, Fixed Microwave Services. It will also cover the demonstration of equipment at
customer locations and at trade shows. Ensemble Communications is a manufacturer of
such equipment.

The Ensemble product uses Adaptive Time Division Duplexing, Adaptive Modulation
and Adaptive Time Division Multiple Access with point-to-point and point-to-multipoint
architectures. These state-of-the-art technologies have been demonstrated to operate
successfully in a laboratory environment and in small-scale deployments. Having access
to spectrum on an experimental basis will allow Ensemble to validate its technology in
the field and to continue to develop and test performance enhancements to the base
technology.

Testing will include, but not be limited to:

•   Fade margin measurements
•   Link reliability and availability under various weather conditions
•   Operation under different modulation modes
•   Network interoperability
•   Single carrier and multi-carrier performance trade-offs
•   Channel capacity limitations
•   Network management
•   Application testing
