                                  FAA Coordination Information

        On May 30, 2006, Northrop Grumman Space and Mission Systems Corp. ("NGST") has
obtained prior coordination of the use of frequency 1378 MHz from the Federal Aviation
Administration (“FAA”). The FAA Western Pacific Regional Office has assigned NG Number
T060359 to this coordination. (See attached email from FAA Western Pacific Regional Office, dated
June 9, 2006).

       The following are the additional parameters of the proposed use of frequency 1378 MHz
as provided to the FAA:

• peak envelope power (PEP):

        100 W


• type of antenna:

        omnidirectional


• transmit antenna gain:

        N/A


• elevation above sea level of the antenna site and height above ground of the focal point of the
  antenna:

        Two airborne transmitters mounted on aircraft, flying at a minimum altitude of 3,050
        meters and a maximum altitude of 6,100 meters, within a 60 kilometer radius around a
        centerpoint of 32°59’25.3”N and 117° 04’46.3” in San Diego (San Diego County),
        California.

        Two fixed/base antenna sites in Rancho Carmel (San Diego), California:

                 • 15180 Innovation Drive (32° 59’30.6”N and 117° 04’48.24”W) with an
                 omnidirectional antennae that will be positioned at ground level with a height of
                 25.0 meters AGL and an elevation of 254.5 meters ASL.

                 • 1 Rancho Carmel (32° 59’25.3”N and 117° 04’26.5”W) with an omnidirectional
                 antennae that will be positioned at ground level with a height of 2.0 meters AGL
                 and an elevation of 249.0 meters ASL.

• antenna polarization:

        Vertical


• the azimuth that the antenna is pointed or appropriate designator to indicate whether the
  antenna is rotating, non-directional, etc.:

        N/A


• pulse repetition rate (PRR) that the equipment is capable of operating on to include PRR
  stagger sequences if appropriate, whether the PRR is adjustable and what PRR's the equipment
  can accept, and any other information that would be helpful in understanding the pulse
  characteristics (staggered, jittered, fixed) of the equipment:

1       34 pulses/sec


• pulse width:

        5.234 msec


• equipment nomenclatures:

        NGST Radio Systems, model number 000-00-0001, transmitters with omnidirectional
        antenna


• whether the equipment is capable of blanking transmissions in certain azimuths and any
  limitations with respect to blanking:

        N/A


• radius of operations if appropriate:

        Two airborne transmitters mounted on aircraft, flying at a minimum altitude of 3,050
        meters and a maximum altitude of 6,100 meters, within a 60 kilometer radius around a
        centerpoint of 32°59’25.3”N and 117° 04’46.3” in San Diego (San Diego County),
        California.
