Global MILSATCOM Dates: 11-14 November 2014 Location: Canberra, Australia Company Overview: What we do!!

O3b has deployed a next generation Continuous coverage: when one , delivering our satellite leaves, another satellite customers superior, faster and more takes over without transmission affordable connectivity interruption

Initial constellation of MEO satellites rotate the globe approximately four times a day

Each beam is connected to a high throughput teleport, with multiple layers of redundancy, ensuring operators have a reliable, high speed service

Ka-Band beams of 700km diameter: O3b began Commercial Service 2Q CY14 steerable around the globe, each Global Service 3QCY14 delivering up to 1.2Gbps

O3b Networks Proprietary A Revolutionary Solution

. A different kind of satellite: • MEO reduces delay by 75% and increases throughput significantly compared with GEO O3b Networks • Lower cost to build and launch 8,062 km (5,009 miles) . O3b is the first satellite constellation built with IP and mobile networks in mind • O3b's cost advantage enables the business case for sites that are not possible with GEO or fiber • O3b's higher throughput and lower latency dramatically improves satellite service

O3b GEO Operators 150ms 36,000 km (22,369 miles) 500ms

O3b Networks Proprietary O3b Satellites Communications Capabilities

Each satellite has 12 steerable antennas • In the nominal Gateway-homed configuration: • 10 antennas used for customer beams • 2 antennas used for Gateway connectivity • Each antenna (beam) is independently steerable to any location within +/- 62 latitude • Customer beams have 216 MHz of capacity in each direction, 432 MHz in total per beam

• Loopback beams can also be configured to provide localized connectivity up and down in the same beam • 216 MHz of total bandwidth is divided up between forward and return directions • Used as a VSAT solution within a single beam

• Beams on a single satellite • Can be stacked at the same location to provide additional capacity • Additional single satellite capability - Can be cross-strapped so two beams provide communication links between two sites on same satellite . Can cross strap up to 4 beams same satellite - Communications can occur directly between government remote terminals and/or government gateways, bypassing O3b teleports. - A highly secure and reliable communications configuration O3b Networks Proprietary O3b Networks Update

• Successful launch of Satellites 1-4 on 25JUN13 • from French Guiana

• Satellites 5-8 launched on 10JUL2014 • Full Commercial Service Q3 CY2014

• TT&C tracking from O3b Gateway sites in Hawaii, Australia, Greece, and Peru all working normally • Service currently active between Hawaii Gateway and Cook Islands since 12MAR14 • Throughput has exceeded 1.2GBPS

• Satellites 9-12 to be launched by Arianespace DEC14 • Commercial service for all 12 satellites - 8 will have been since commercial service date, Q314 - Additional satellites increase beam availability
