1 Satellite Ground Systems Market: Looking Up? Enabling Technology for the coming Mobile Broadband and NGSO SATCOM Services Market Wednesday, 24 January, 2018,

2 Introduction to Phasor Phasor enables mobile-broadband communications while travelling at-sea, over land and in-flight US Delaware-Corp, w/hq in Washington, DC and Research & Development Center in London Patented, tested Electronically Steerable Antenna (ESA), using innovative chip (ASIC)-based technology, software/digitally-controlled, modular system architecture Solid state reliability, convenient form factor, and easy installation and maintenance for broadband mobility markets Product launch will be in Ku-Band, the dominant frequency standard for mobility with satellite networks in-deployment by the world s largest FSS Operators Other Frequency Bands to follow, (Ka) Phasor enables Mobile Broadband

3 Introduction to Phasor

4 Demand Growth Commercial Mobile Broadband

5 Supply Growth: Mobility-bandwidth capacity The Satellite industry is entering a phase of explosive growth in high-throughput SATCOM wireless communications: The world's leading providers of satellite services, Intelsat and Inmarsat, are early movers and have already launched High Throughput Satellites (HTS) SES/O3B, Eutelsat and other GEO satellite players are scheduled to increase capacity to meet the market demand Announced NGSO and Low-Earth Orbit Satellite (LEO) service companies including SpaceX, LeoSat, Telesat and OneWeb are also expected to participate in this market growth Over $15B is being invested in high-through capacity over next 5 years

6 Access Technology is the Enabler Initial Mobile Broadband Terminals large, heavy & bulky targeted Maritime Next gen modified for Aero, but limited use, performance, applicability Current gen improved for Aero, but still too bulky, heavy ESAs are the Future of Commercial Broadband Evolution from Heavy Mechanized VSATs to lighter, streamlined ESAs

7 Access Technology is the Key (Features and Benefits The Phasor ESA) Thin Very Low Profile, (aerodynamic, inconspicuous) Superior Form-Factor, (smaller footprint, light-weight) Reliable Accurate, (faster scan, better tracking, fewer network drops) Robust, (solid-sate/no-moving parts, gradual degradation vs. total system failure) Broadband Delivers true Broadband Service, (supports networks > 100Mbs) Very High Gain (efficient, powerful) Modular Adaptable, (expandable to support wide requirements, lowering OpEx) Better Logistics-tail (easier, less costly & less timely to repair ) Versatile Broad functionality, (multi-beam, flat or conformal, distributed or contiguous arrays, GEO or NGSO Dynamic control, (software-defined beam forming & tapering, Interference mitigation)

8 Breakthrough technology + industry standard processes Single Panel / Core Module assembly Each board supports up to ~500antenna patch elements w/proprietary ASICs on the Top-Board Control of individual ASICs performed locally Similar design for Receive and Transmit

9 Phasor ESA Time to Market Phasor will launch into specific market segments w/ leading industry partners Market Introduction Plan: 2017 through 2019 Commercial Maritime 1 (e.g., Private Yacht, Cruise, Maritime Energy) Commercial Land Mobile 1 (e.g., High-speed Rail, Commuter Rail, Intercity Bus) Commercial Aeronautical 2 (e.g., General & Business Aviation, Regional & Long-haul Commercial Aviation) Defense & Government 1,2 sea, air & land (e.g., COTM - Defense, Law Enforcement, Scientific, Humanitarian) Platform Testing Field Trials Release 1 Launch 1 Technology Finalization Use-Case Customization Licensing & Type Approval Release 1 Launch

10 Summary The mobile broadband communications market is building momentum for both Commercial Mobile Broadband and Government COTM markets Passenger & crew requirements for ubiquitous broadband connectivity and evolving aggregated Telematics needs, are driving demand geometrically Industry is providing enormous new supply, specifically for these mobile broadband markets. New FSS, HTS and LEO/MEO SATCOM systems will empower these new global services The current state of the art for ACCESS technology is woefully insufficient, and inhibits adoption and growth of the market. Electronically Steerable Antennas (ESAs) are the way forward Industry & Investors are funding the development Phasor s technology for specific high-value, early-adopter user-markets Phasor is uniquely well positioned to deliver differentiated technology to enterprise-grade, mobile broadband markets
