Engineering Certification of Telenor Satellite for the Thor—7 Satellite


This letter confirms that Telenor Satellite ("Telenor") is aware that Thales Avionics, Inc. ("Thales"), licensed by
the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC"), is seeking authorization from the FCC to operate
technically identical Ka—band transmit/receive remote terminals, consistent with ITU RR 5.526 and the
Commission‘s current framework for the Ka band. Thales seeks authority for Thales Avionics, Inc.‘s remote
terminals to communicate with the Thor—7 satellite at 0.65° W.L. according to the Commission‘s precedentfor
Ka—band aeronautical applications.

Based upon the representations made to Telenor by Thales concerning how it will operate on Thor—7:
    e   Telenor certifies that the power density levels are consistent with off—axis EIRP density levels specified
        in the FCC‘s rules in 47 CFR, Part 25, §25.138(a)(1). Telenoris aware that Thales holds an FCC
        waiver of §25.138(a)(2) rules due to the antenna‘s non—compliance in the NGSO plane when operating
        at low skew angles.

    e   Telenor certifies that the power flux density (PFD) levels are consistent with PFD levels specified in
        §25.138(a)(6)(a).

    *   Telenor certifies that the power density levels specified comply with any existing coordination
        agreements to which Telenoris a party, with adjacent satellite operators within +/—6°of orbital
        separation from Thor—7.

    e   Telenor certifies that Thales‘s operations are consistent with the following §25.227 rules that apply to
        Ka—band operation:
            ©       (a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(4) through (a)(16); (b)(1), (b)(2), (b)(4) through (b)(8)
    e   If the FCC authorizes the operations proposed by Thales, Telenor will, as long as Thales is using
        Thor—7 capacity, incoperate the power density levels specified in this letter in future satellite network
        coordination agreements with other operators of satellites adjacent to Thor—7 .
