RLM Communications, Inc. is providing The United States Army Special Operations Command (USASOC) research and development support in the areas of Joint Integration and Compatibility Development System (JCIDS) and Special Operations Forces Integration Development System (SOFCIDS) requirements development, product evaluation and systems testing and training. RLM will be providing training documentation, technical writers, training specialists, electronic technicians and other media support professionals in the upcoming Design Testing (DT), Operational Testing (OT) and new equipment training (NET) for a family of electronic broadcast systems which encompass broadcast radio in AM, FM, SW and television in UHF and VHF analog television and digital television. This is an ongoing mission that will last over the next two years as the delivery of systems to the end users will each undergo OT, NET training and User Acceptance Testing (UAT). The testing and training activities will take place at RLM Communications, Inc at 1027 East Manchester Road. These activities will occur many times per year as system are delivered and US Army Special Operations soldiers are available to participate in the program and still support their missions worldwide. The nature of the activity will include erecting the antenna system several times, startup up the transmitter and increasing ERP into a dummy load and into the radiating antenna(s). The intention is to only have the transmitter powered up for short periods of time during DT and supportive training. Operation testing may require the transmitter to be up for periods up to 18 hours or more. Our intent at this time is to only broadcast test tones and/or content from the end users catalog of licensed content (Purchased/leased music library). This program is and will be run under several contracts. The current contract which RLM Communications Inc. is operation in support of the USASOC program is managed through The United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) to SPAWAR (Space and Naval War Systems) C4ISR MAC N65236- 08-D-2821- DO8 dated 28 MARCH 2010. This IDIQ officially ends in December of 2010 and a new award is intend to be made to continue and expand these support services under the SNIMS IDIQ ????????. The Technical POC for this activity is Mr. Samuel Foley, Combat Developer, USASOC G-8. The Contracting Officer Representative is Mr. Gilbert Quick, SPAWAR Code 55280, SPAWAR Atlantic, (843) 218-4225 with Engineering support from Mr. Michael Robinson, Project Engineer, SPAWAR Atlantic, Code 552M1, (843) 218-4555. 2. The systems being developed, testing and delivered will span a period of five years which includes configuration management, potential system upgrades, testing, evaluation and delivery requirements including OT and NET. We will be satisfied with a two year license for testing and willing to renew/re- apply as needed. Our intention was to inform the FCC during our application process the actual length of these programs activities. A two year license will be satisfactory. 1-3

3. The designated contacts for immediate and emergency termination are the following: a. Thomas N Klebe (PRIMARY) i. OFFICE and TESTING LOCATION (910) 223-1350 ii. CELLULAR (910) 494-6136 iii. 1027 East Manchester Road, Spring Lake, NC 28376 b. John E Griffith III (SECONDARY) i. OFFICE and TESTING LOCATION (910) 223-1350 ii.

CELLULAR (910) 286-4729 iii. 1027 East Manchester Road, Spring Lake, NC 28376 4. The correct Frequency Designator is 4K00R3E. Like most all of the transmission equipment in these system the 3-30 MHz transmitter is capable of the full range. We would like to be granted the authority to test on the a range of frequencies from low to high. Because this is a testing and training OET license request and that our equipment must be capable of operating across the frequency band, we listed the frequencies that our equipment covers. We cannot test each frequency however our testing program does require us to operate in at least three frequencies in each band. a. We would like to make the formal request to obtain permission to operate on at least three different frequencies for each of the bands requested. 2-3
