("Motient") and Mobile Satellite Ventures Subsidiary LLC ("MSV Sub") filed on March 2, 2001. International Space Brokers has been associated with Motient since 1992; we currently negotiate its satellite insurance needs. As a business partner from the very beginning, we can attest to the vital backup communications services that Motient provides to a variety of organizations, including many emergency management agencies and field service teams. Mobile radio and cellular phones provide spotty or no coverage in many regions of the country, yet many organizations must still maintain dependable communications under any condition. With Motient‘s service, field teams have dependable access to communication when traveling in remote regions where analog telephones and pagers do not work. In times of national natural disasters, Motient offers reliable emergency response communication even when landline and cellular service is out and power lines are down. International Space Brokers agrees with Motient and MSV that the new system, as outlined in the application, is needed and would continue to improve communications in rural and remote communities. For these reasons, we believe that you should grant the above—captioned application. Very truly yours, /éé,ug %‘//W/ Glen E. Hogan Senior Vice President co: Motient Services Inc. Mobile Satellite Ventures
