 SAT-LOA-20151123-00078, as amended by SAT-AMD-20161114-00107), of Spire Global, Inc. Specifically, Spire was authorized to construct,
 deploy, and operate 4 satellites to be deployed from the Cygnus cargo vessel at orbital altitudes no greater than 500 km, as part of what Spire
 describes as Phase IB deployment. The satellites will be used to conduct maritime monitoring and meteorological monitoring operations. The
 satellites will operate using the 402-403 MHz (Earth-to-space) and (space-to-Earth) frequency band for telemetry, tracking and command and
 back-up data downlinking, and the 2020-2025 MHz (space-to-Earth) and 2200-2290 (space-to-Earth, for 1 MHz bandwidth operations with
 earth stations outside the United States) frequency bands. The satellites will also receive Automatic Identification System (AIS) and Application
 Specific Messages (ASM) signals in the 156.7625-156.7875 MHz, 156.8125-156.8375 MHz (space-to-Earth), and 161.9625-161.9875 MHz,
