                        Information on Microwave Landing System (MLS) Sites

For the Finca Pascual, Las Palmas, Cabo Rojo, Puerto Rico, Globalstar gateway site, there is one
potential MLS site, i.e., Category III airport, within the 200 nautical mile transmit coordination distance.
The Las Palmas site is located at (NAD 83) 17-58-42 N, 67-08-12 W. The airport is:

SJU           San Juan Luis Muñoz Marin International Airport,
              approximately 69 nautical miles from Las Palmas

This airport site is located near San Juan in Carolina, Puerto Rico, and falls outside the 39.8 nautical
mile maximum trigger distance for MLS/MSS coordination. In addition, based on a directory used for
MLS coordination purposes, and to the best of its knowledge, Globalstar Caribbean Ltd., believes that
MLS is not active at this airport.
