Launch Vehicle Compatibility. If, at any time prior to Launch in respect of each Spacecraft, the interface and support requirements and technical data (the “Launch Agency Requirements”) issued by the selected Launch Vehicle agency(s) as specified in Annex A differ from the Launch Agency Requirements current at PDR then the Contractor shall promptly at its own expense evaluate the consequences using its reasonable efforts in good faith to avoid any hardware modification, additional testing and/or schedule impact. These efforts shall include inter alia interaction (supported by Inmarsat) with the Launch Vehicle agency. If this evaluation shows that the Spacecraft is compatible with the updated Launch Agency Requirements without hardware modification or additional testing the updated Launch Agency Requirements will replace those current at PDR. If it does not, the Contractor shall provide a report to Inmarsat demonstrating the incompatibility and recommending the least cost, minimal-impact-to-schedule hardware modifications and/or additional testing which may be required. Provided Inmarsat accepts the findings of the Contractor, the parties will treat the matter as a change in accordance with Article 31 hereof, entitled Changes.

Launch Vehicle Compatibility. The ORBCOMM spacecraft shall be compatible with the Pegasus XL vehicle. The compatibility requirement applies to mechanical and electrical interfaces, envelope, mass, safety and all other non-environmental aspects associated with launch. The Contractor shall be responsible for performing all tasks required to ensure such complete compatibility, including mission and coupled loads analyses, and to modify the spacecraft design, if necessary. The Contractor shall be responsible for assuring compliance with launch vehicle technical, safety, interface and management requirements and shall prepare all required launch vehicle integration documentation for submission to the launch vehicle agencies in accordance with user documentation requirements and schedules established by these organizations.
Launch Vehicle Compatibility. The Offeror shall detail how compatible its architecture in the most stressing configuration is with the Minotaur-1, Falcon-1e, and/or Minotaur-4 launch vehicle envelopes.
