    1. Summary of Results
On behalf of O3b Networks’ proposed earth station transmitting at 28 GHz1, Comsearch
performed a coordination notice for all existing and proposed terrestrial licenses within the
coordination contours of the Ka-Band station in Bristow, VA. Prior notification letters were sent
to the licensees and a copy of the notification data is provided in section four of this report. The
earth station coordination was finalized on May 22, 2013.

No objections were received from any of the incumbent 28 GHz licensees. Our notification to
the LMDS incumbents was performed under the assumption that the earth station would be
operating on a secondary basis to LMDS Block A operations and a contact at O3b Networks
has been provided in case any concerns may arise in the future.


    2. 28 GHz Common Carrier and LTTS Coordination
In accordance with FCC Rules and Regulations, a Ka-Band earth station in Bristow, VA was
prior coordinated by Comsearch. The notification letters and datasheet for this earth station
were sent to the following 28 GHz common carrier fixed microwave licensees on April 22, 2013.
These licensees are authorized to operate temporary fixed operations from 27.5 – 29.5 GHz on
a statewide or nationwide basis.
