                     BASE STATION ANTENNA INFORMATION

        Each of the three base stations will use either an omnidirectional antenna or a
directional antenna. Only one antenna will be used at any one time, and authority is
requested to use either the omnidirectional antenna or the directional antenna at all three base
stations. The directional antenna beamwidth is 120 degrees. It may be oriented at any point
along the 360 degree circle. Up to three directional antennas may be employed at any one
time, each within its own section. The orientation is the vertical plane will be —0.5 degrees.

                              DESCRIPTION OF EXPERIMENTAL OPERATIONS

a.  The complete program of research and experimentation proposed including a description of the
equipment and theory of operation.

Full Spectrum desires to test the capacity of its technology to support the requirements of electric
utilities that are looking to deploy broadband mobile and fixed IP data communications to remote
portions of their networks in order to enable new smart grid applications including two way control of
automated voltage regulators, capacitor banks, automatic metering backhaul, etc.        Additionally, Full
Spectrum intends to test the capacity of its technology to support mobile data communications to
vehicles for remote intranet access to graphical information systems for trouble shooting and automatic
vehicle location to optimize service vehicle deployment during power outages. These new applications
require communications using Internet Protocol over a wide coverage area (up to 20 miles from a tower
site) in varying terrain with high Quality of Service.

a)    Full Spectrum will be testing a TDD, Point—to—Multipoint (PtMP) broadband wireless system using the
      WiMAX—e (IEEE 802.16e) air interface protocol with modifications to the WiIMAX—e MAC and PHY to
      support low band VHF frequencies in narrow channel sizes. We will be testing mobile and fixed data
      rates and range from a utility tower site to support smart grid applications. We will be test channel
      sizes of 200 kHz, 400 kHz, 500 kHz and 1 MHz. Standards based WiIMAX uses microwave
      frequencies with low power at 2.3 GHz, 25. GHz and 3.5 GHz with a minimum channel size of 1.25
      MHz. Using low frequencies in narrow channels allows for wide area coverage with minimal tower
      infrastructure.

b) The System consists of Base Stations Radios (BS‘s), Mobile Stations Radios (MS‘s), Fixed Stations
   Radios (FS‘s) and a Network Management System (NMS). (see Diagram 1 below)

c)   The System will support both fixed and mobile applications. A Base Station Radio will be installed
     with a 120 degree sector or omni antenna. Existing backhaul facilities will be used to connect the
     Base Station Radio to a network operations center. Fixed and Mobile Station Radios will be installed
     in several locations in the tower‘s serving area.

d)    The System will operate in unused contiguous channels sizes between 200 kHz and 1 MHz between
     42.96 MHz and 44.60 MHz and 47.68 MHz to 49.58 MHz. Exhibit A shows the specifications of the
     Base Station Radio. Exhibit B shows the specifications of the Mobile and Fixed Station Radios.
     Exhibit C shows the Base Station antenna specifications. Exhibit D shows the specifications of the
     Mobile and Fixed Station Antennas. We will be testing our software defined radio with a flexible RF
     front end that enables to configure center frequency, channel bandwidth and applicable FCC rules.

Full Spectrum recognizes that its use of the requested frequencies is secondary to other uses of the
spectrum and that Full Spectrum must accept interference to its experimental operations and cannot
cause interference to other operations.    In the event of a report of interference, Full Spectrum will
promptly cease operations until the source of interference is identified and eliminated.        Prior to
deploying any frequencies in any area of operations, Full Spectrum will determine whether there are any
users of the spectrum that could be adversely affected by the proposed operation and will coordinate
the proposed use with other users that could possibly suffer interference.
