take any action hereafter that would cause the loss of such exemptions.
2.8 Litigation. There is no action, suit, proceeding or
investigation pending, or to the Company's knowledge, currently threatened

business, assets or condition of the Company or any Subsidiary, financially or
otherwise, or any change in the current equity ownership of the Company or any
Subsidiary (other than governmental proceedings affecting the satellite industry
in general). Except for the Company's FCC authorizations and other orders of the
FCC, all of which are generally publicly available (and all of the material
provisions of which are publicly available), neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary is a party or subject to the provisions of any order, writ,
injunction, judgment or decree of any court or government agency or
instrumentality. There is no FCC rule, regulation or order currently in effect

Agreement, copies of which have been provided to special counsel to the

in violation thereof, and the Company will use its reasonable efforts to prevent
any such violation.
2.10 Patents and Trademarks. To its knowledge, the Company and
each Subsidiary possesses all patents, patent rights, trademarks, trademark
rights, service marks, service xxxx rights, trade names, trade name rights and
copyrights (collectively, the "Intellectual Property") necessary for its
business without any conflict with or infringement of the valid rights of others
and the lack of which could materially and adversely affect the operations or
condition, financial or otherwise, of the Company or any Subsidiary, and neither
the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of infringement upon or
conflict with the asserted rights of
5
10
others. The Company and each Subsidiary has a valuable body of trade secrets,
including know-how, concepts, computer programs and other technical data (the
"Proprietary Information") for the development, manufacture and sale of its
products. To its knowledge, the Company and each Subsidiary has the right to use
the Proprietary Information free and clear of any rights, liens, encumbrances or
claims of others, except that the possibility exists that other persons may have
independently developed trade secrets or technical information similar or
identical to those of the Company or any Subsidiary. Neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary is aware of any such independent development nor of any
misappropriation of its Proprietary Information. Neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary is aware that any of its employees is obligated under any contract
(including licenses, covenants or commitments of any nature) or other agreement,
or subject to any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative
agency, that would interfere with the use of his or her best efforts to promote
the interests of the Company or any Subsidiary or that would conflict with the
Company's or any Subsidiary's business. The Company does not believe it is or
will be necessary to utilize any inventions of any of its or any of its
Subsidiary's employees (or people it currently intends to hire) made prior to
their employment by the Company or any Subsidiary.
2.11 Compliance with Other Instruments. Neither the Company
nor any Subsidiary is in violation in any material respect of any provision of
its Certificate or Bylaws, or Articles of Organization or Operating Agreement,
as the case may be, nor, to its knowledge, in any material respect of any
instrument, judgment, order, writ, decree, authorization, license or contract,
statute, rule or regulation to which the Company or any Subsidiary is subject
and a violation of which would have a material adverse effect on the condition,
financial or otherwise, or operations of the Company or any Subsidiary. The
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby, except as provided in Section 1.2(b) in
connection with the FCC Approval, will not result in any such violation, or be
in conflict with or constitute, with or without the passage of time and giving
of notice, either a default under any such provision or an event that results in
the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets of the Company
or any Subsidiary or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or
nonrenewal of any material permit, license, authorization or approval applicable
to the Company or any Subsidiary, or its business or operations or any of its
assets or properties.
2.12 Agreements; Action.

Company or any Subsidiary and any of its officers, directors, affiliates or any
affiliate thereof.
(b) There are no agreements, understandings, instruments,

obligations arising from purchase or sale agreements entered into in the
ordinary course of business).
(c) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has (i) declared or
paid any dividends or authorized or made any distribution upon or with respect
to any class or series of its capital stock or other equity interests, (ii)
incurred any indebtedness for money borrowed or any other liabilities
individually in excess of $10,000 or, in the case of indebtedness and/or
liabilities individually less than $10,000, in excess of $50,000 in the
aggregate, (iii) made any loans or advances to any person, other than ordinary
advances for travel expenses, or (iv) sold, exchanged or otherwise disposed of

ordinary course of business.
(d) For the purposes of subsections (b) and (c) above, all
indebtedness, liabilities, agreements, understandings, instruments, contracts
and proposed transactions involving the same person or entity (including persons
or entities the Company has reason to believe are affiliated therewith) shall be
aggregated for the purpose of meeting the individual minimum dollar amounts of
such subsections.
(e) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has engaged in the
past three (3) months in any discussion (i) with any representative of any
corporation or corporations regarding the consolidation or merger of the Company
or any Subsidiary with or into any such corporation or corporations, (ii) with

of the Company or any Subsidiary is disposed of, or (iii) regarding any other
form of acquisition, liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or
any Subsidiary.
(f) All of the contracts, agreements and instruments set forth
on the Schedule of Exceptions pursuant to this Section 2.12 are valid, binding
and enforceable in accordance with their respective terms. The Company has
performed all material obligations required to be performed by it and is not in
default under or in breach of nor in receipt of any claim of default or breach
under any contract, agreement or instrument and the Company does not have any
present expectation or intention of not fully performing all such obligations.
No event has occurred which with the passage of time or the giving of notice or
both would result in a default, breach or event of noncompliance by the Company
under any contract, agreement or instrument. The Company has no knowledge of any
breach or anticipated breach by the other parties to any contract, agreement,
instrument or commitment.
(g) The special counsel to the Investors has been supplied
with a true and correct copy of each of the written instruments, plans,
contracts and agreements and an accurate description of each of the oral
arrangements, contracts and agreements that are referred to on the Schedule of
Exceptions pursuant to this Section 2.12, together with all amendments, waivers
or other changes thereto.

director of the Company or any Subsidiary or member of his or her immediate
family is indebted to the Company or any Subsidiary, nor is the Company or any
Subsidiary indebted (or committed to make loans or extend or guarantee credit)
to any of them. To the best of the Company's knowledge, none of such persons has
any direct or indirect ownership interest in any firm or corporation with which
the Company or any Subsidiary is affiliated or with which the Company or any
Subsidiary has a business relationship, or any firm or corporation that competes
with the Company or any Subsidiary, except that employees, officers or directors
of the Company or any Subsidiary and members of their immediate families may own

of the immediate family of any officer or director of the Company or any
Subsidiary is directly or indirectly interested in any material contract with
the Company or any Subsidiary.
2.14 Financial Statements. The Company has delivered to each
Investor its unaudited financial statements (balance sheet and statement of
operations, statement of stockholders' equity and statement of cash flows,
including notes thereto) at December 31, 1998 and for the fiscal year then
ended, and its unaudited financial statements (balance sheet and statement of
operations) as, at and for the three (3) month period ended March 31, 1999 (the
"Financial Statements"). The Financial Statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent
basis throughout the periods indicated and with each other, except that
unaudited Financial Statements may not contain all footnotes required by
generally accepted accounting principles. The Financial Statements fairly
present the financial condition and operating results of the Company and any
Subsidiaries as of the dates, and for the periods, indicated therein, subject in
the case of unaudited Financial Statements to normal year-end audit adjustments.
Except as set forth in the Financial Statements, neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary has any material liabilities, contingent or otherwise, other than (i)
liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business subsequent to December
31, 1998 and (ii) obligations under contracts and commitments incurred in the
ordinary course of business and not required under generally accepted accounting
principles to be reflected in the Financial Statements, which, in both cases,
individually or in the aggregate, are not material to the financial condition or
operating results of the Company or any Subsidiary. Except as disclosed in the
Financial Statements, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is a guarantor or
indemnitor of any indebtedness of any other person, firm or corporation. The
Company maintains and will continue to maintain a standard system of accounting
established and administered in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles.
2.15 Changes. Since December 31, 1998 there has not been:
(a) any change in the assets, liabilities, financial condition
or operating results of the Company or any Subsidiary from that reflected in the
Financial Statements, except changes in the ordinary course of business that
have not been, in the aggregate, materially adverse;
(b) any damage, destruction or loss, whether or not covered by
insurance, materially and adversely affecting the assets, properties, financial
condition, operating results or business of the Company or any Subsidiary;
8
13

right or of a material debt owed to it;
(d) any satisfaction or discharge of any lien, claim or
encumbrance or payment of any obligation by the Company or any Subsidiary,
except in the ordinary course of business and that is not material to the
assets, properties, financial condition, operating results or business of the
Company or any Subsidiary;
(e) any material change or amendment to a material contract or
arrangement by which the Company or any Subsidiary or any of its assets or
properties is bound or subject;
(f) any material change in any compensation arrangement or
agreement with any employee; or
(g) any agreement or commitment by the Company or any
Subsidiary to do any of the things described in this Section 2.15.
2.16 Tax Returns. The Company and each Subsidiary have timely
filed all tax returns (federal, state and local) required to be filed by it and
all Taxes (as defined below), assessments or other governmental charges imposed
upon the Company or any Subsidiary, or upon any of the assets, income or
franchises of the Company or any Subsidiary, have been timely paid or, if not
yet payable, are adequately accrued on the Company's books and records. Neither
the Company nor any Subsidiary has been advised that any of its returns have
been or are being audited. "Tax" or "Taxes" means any federal, state, local or
foreign income, gross receipts, license, payroll, employment, excise, severance,
stamp, occupation, premium, property, windfall, profits, environmental, customs,
capital stock, franchise, employees' income withholding, foreign or domestic
withholding, social security, unemployment, disability, real property, personal

2.17 Permits. The Company and each Subsidiary has all
franchises, permits, licenses, certifications, authorizations and any similar
authority (including, without limitation, all authorizations from the FCC)
necessary for the conduct of its business, the lack of which could materially
and adversely affect the business, properties or financial condition of the
Company or any Subsidiary (other than additional authorizations described in the
order granting the Company's FCC authorizations and that are the subject of
pending rule-making proceedings affecting the satellite industry in general).
Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default in any material respect
under any of such franchises, permits, licenses, certifications, authorizations
or other similar authority. The Company and each Subsidiary has timely filed all
reports, tariffs and other documents required to be filed with the FCC as a
condition of the Company's authorization to construct, launch and operate
geostationary Ka-band satellites, and the FCC has not established for the
Company or any Subsidiary an implementation milestone schedule concerning the
construction, launch or operation of the Company's proposed satellites or other
condition or requirement of such authorization. There is no FCC rule or
contractual provision by which the Company is bound, compliance with which is
required as of the date
9
14
hereof, that materially jeopardizes the Company's planned launch for the
Company's proposed satellites.
2.18 Environmental and Safety Laws. To its knowledge, neither
the Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation of any applicable statute, law or
regulation relating to the environment or occupational health and safety, and to

comply with any such existing statute, law or regulation.
2.19 Disclosure. The Company has fully provided each Investor
with all the information that such Investor has requested for deciding whether
to purchase the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock and all
information that the Company believes is reasonably necessary to enable such
Investor to make such decision. Neither this Agreement (including all the
exhibits and schedules hereto) nor any other statements or certificates made or
delivered in connection herewith, taken as a whole, contains any untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make
the statements herein or therein not misleading in light of the circumstances
under which they were made.
2.20 Modification of FCC Authorization. No modification or
amendment of, or other change in, the Company's FCC authorization is necessary
for the Company to provide the communications services set forth in the Business
Plan (defined in Section 2.21). The absence of any modification or amendment of,
or other change in, the Company's FCC authorization will not result in or
require a material adverse change in the business or operations of the Company.
2.21 Business Plan. The Business Plan dated April 1999,
previously delivered to each Investor (the "Business Plan") has been prepared in
good faith by the Company and, taken as a whole, does not, to the Company's
knowledge, contain any untrue statement of a material fact nor does it omit to
state a material fact necessary to make the statements made therein not
misleading, except that with respect to projections contained in the Business
Plan, the Company represents only that such projections were prepared in good
faith and that the Company reasonably believes there is a reasonable basis for
such projections.
2.22 Registration Rights. Except as provided in the Investor
Rights Agreement, the Company has not granted or agreed to grant any
registration rights, including piggyback rights, to any person or entity.
2.23 Corporate Documents; Minute Books. Except for amendments
necessary to satisfy representations and warranties or conditions contained
herein (the forms of which amendments have been approved by the Investors), the
Certificate and Bylaws of the Company, and the Articles of Organization and
Operating Agreement of each Subsidiary, are in the form previously provided to
special counsel for the Investors. The minute books of the Company provided to
special counsel to the Investors contain a complete summary of all meetings of
directors and stockholders since the time of incorporation and reflect all
transactions referred to in such minutes accurately in all material respects,
and the records of each Subsidiary provided to special counsel for the Investors
contain a complete summary of all meetings of any managers and members since the
time of organization and reflect all transactions referred to in such records
accurately in all material respects.

2.24 Title to Property and Assets. The property and assets of
the Company and each Subsidiary are owned by the Company or the Subsidiary, as
the case may be, free and clear of all mortgages, liens, loans and encumbrances,
except (i) as reflected in the Financial Statements, (ii) for statutory liens
for the payment of current taxes that are not yet delinquent, (iii) for liens,
encumbrances and security interests that arise in the ordinary course of
business and minor defects in title, none of which, individually or in the
aggregate, materially impair the Company's or any Subsidiary's ownership or use
of such property or assets and (iv) that the authorizations granted by the FCC
to the Company to construct, launch and operate Ka-band geostationary satellites
at 109.2 X.X. and 73 X.X. do not confer upon the Company any property rights in
such orbital locations or spectrum frequencies but do grant the Company
authority to use such orbital locations to the full extent granted by the
authorizations. With respect to the property and assets it leases, the Company
and each Subsidiary is in material compliance with such leases and, to its
knowledge, holds a valid leasehold interest free of any liens, claims or
encumbrances, subject to clauses (i)-(iii).
2.25 Insurance. The Company has fire and casualty insurance
policies with such coverages in amounts (subject to reasonable deductibles)
customary for companies similarly situated.
2.26 Employee Benefit Plans. Neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary has any Employee Benefit Plan as defined in the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974.
2.27 Labor Agreements and Actions. Neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary is bound by or subject to (and none of its assets or properties is
bound by or subject to) any written or oral, express or implied, contract,
commitment or arrangement with any labor union, and no labor union has requested
or, to the Company's knowledge, has sought to represent any of the employees,
representatives or agents of the Company or any Subsidiary. There is no strike
or other labor dispute involving the Company or any Subsidiary pending, or to
the Company's knowledge, threatened, that could have a material adverse effect
on the assets, properties, financial condition, operating results or business of
the Company or any Subsidiary, nor is the Company aware of any labor
organization activity involving its employees. The Company is not aware that any
officer or key employee, or that any group of key employees, intends to
terminate their employment with the Company or any Subsidiary, nor does the
Company or any Subsidiary have a present intention to terminate the employment
of any of the foregoing. The employment of each officer and employee of the
Company or any Subsidiary is terminable at the will of the Company or the
Subsidiary, as the case may be. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is a
party to or bound by any currently effective employment contract, deferred
compensation agreement, bonus plan, incentive plan, profit sharing plan,
retirement agreement or other employee compensation agreement. To its knowledge,
the Company and each Subsidiary has complied in all material respects with all
applicable state and federal equal employment opportunity and other laws related
to employment.
2.28 Net Operating Loss Carryforward. The information
contained in the Schedule of Exceptions or otherwise provided to counsel for the
Investors regarding the application of Section 382 of the Code to the Company's
federal net operating loss carryforward is true and correct to the Company's
knowledge.

Series A Preferred Stock will meet each of the requirements for qualification as

2.30 Year 2000 Compliance. To its knowledge, all of the
Company's and any Subsidiary's internal computer systems are Year 2000
Compliant, except that neither the Company nor any Subsidiary makes such
representation with respect to off-the-shelf software that is used in the
Company's or any Subsidiary's internal computer systems the failure or
malfunctioning of which would not have a material adverse effect on the Company
or any Subsidiary. To its knowledge, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is
relying on the products or services of any third party whose systems are not
Year 2000 Compliant where the failure to so comply would reasonably be expected
to have a material adverse effect on the Company or any Subsidiary. Except as
set forth in the Schedule of Exceptions, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary
has made any other representations or warranties that any product or service
sold, licensed, rendered or otherwise provided by the Company or any Subsidiary
is Year 2000 Compliant. For purposes of this Agreement, "Year 2000 Compliant"
shall mean that such products and data and information systems and any such
data, information or other files or software it uses, individually and in
combination, completely and accurately record, store, process, calculate and
present data involving dates before, on or after January 1, 2000; specifically:
(i) no value for a current date will cause any interruption in operation; (ii)

hereby, would: (a) make any of its current stockholders ineligible or
unqualified to hold shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock under any
material statute, law, rule, regulation, instrument, order, judgment, writ,
decree or contract, including but not limited to the Communications Act of 1934,
as amended, and the rules and regulations of the FCC (other than the FCC
Approval required in connection with the Second Closing, as contemplated by
Section 1.2(b)); or (b) render the Company ineligible or unqualified to hold the
authorizations granted to it by the FCC or, in the Company's reasonable
judgment, jeopardize the Company's ability to hold such authorizations as a
result of foreign ownership, criminal convictions or other ground for
forfeiture, cancellation or revocation under the rules and regulations of the
FCC or the imposition of a monetary forfeiture.
3. Representations and Warranties of the Investors. Each
Investor hereby represents, warrants and covenants that:
3.1 Authorization. Such Investor has full power and authority
to enter into this Agreement, the Investor Rights Agreement, the Voting
Agreement and the Right of First Offer Agreement and each such agreement
constitutes its valid and legally binding obligation, enforceable in accordance
with its terms.
12
17
3.2 Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made
with such Investor in reliance upon such Investor's representation to the
Company, which by such Investor's execution of this Agreement such Investor
hereby confirms, that the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock
to be received by such Investor and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion
thereof (collectively, the "Securities") will be acquired for investment for
such Investor's own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to
the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that such Investor has no
present intention of selling, granting any participation in or otherwise
distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, such Investor further
represents that such Investor does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement
or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such
person or to any third person, with respect to any of the Securities.
3.3 Disclosure of Information. Such Investor believes it has
received all the information it considers necessary or appropriate for deciding
whether to purchase the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock.
Such Investor further represents that it has had an opportunity to ask questions
and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the
offering of the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock and the
business, properties, prospects and financial condition of the Company. Except
to the extent that an Investor has actual knowledge that any representations or
warranties of the Company are untrue, the foregoing does not limit or modify the
representations and warranties of the Company in Section 2 of this Agreement or
the right of such Investor to rely thereon.
3.4 Investment Experience. Such Investor is an investor in
securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is
able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment, and has
such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Series A
Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock. If other than an individual, such
Investor also represents it has not been organized for the purpose of acquiring
the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock.
3.5 Accredited Investor. Such Investor is an "accredited
investor" within the meaning of Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Rule
501 of Regulation D, as presently in effect.
3.6 Restricted Securities. Such Investor understands that the
Securities it is purchasing are characterized as "restricted securities" under
the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company
in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and
applicable regulations such Securities may be resold without registration under
the Act only in certain limited circumstances. In the absence of an effective
registration statement covering the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B
Preferred Stock (or the Common Stock issued on conversion thereof) or an
available exemption from registration under the Act, the Series A Preferred
Stock and Series B Preferred Stock (and any Common Stock issued on conversion
thereof) must be held indefinitely. In this connection, such Investor represents
that it is familiar with SEC Rule 144, as presently in effect, and understands
the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act, including without
limitation, the fact that the Investors may not be able to sell the Series A
Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock (or the Common Stock issued on
conversion thereof) pursuant to Rule 144 unless current
13
18
information about the Company is available to the public. Such information is
not now available and the Company has no present plans to make such information
available.
3.7 Further Limitations on Disposition. Without in any way
limiting the representations set forth above, such Investor further agrees not
to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Securities unless and until
the transferee has agreed in writing for the benefit of the Company to be bound
by this Section 3 and the Investor Rights Agreement, and:
(a) There is then in effect a registration statement under the
Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in
accordance with such registration statement; or
(b) (i) Such Investor shall have notified the Company of the
proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed
statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and (ii) if
requested by the Company, such Investor shall have furnished the Company with an
opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such disposition
will not require registration of such shares under the Act.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (a) and (b)
above, no such registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be necessary
for a transfer by an Investor that is a partnership to a partner of such
partnership or a retired partner of such partnership who retires after the date
hereof, or to the estate of any such partner or retired partner or the transfer
by gift, will or intestate succession of any partner to his or her spouse or to
the siblings, lineal descendants or ancestors of such partner or his or her
spouse, if the transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms hereof to
the same extent as if he or she were an original Investor hereunder.
3.8 Legends. It is understood that the certificates evidencing
the Securities may bear the following legend:
"These securities have not been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended. They may not be sold, offered for sale,
pledged or hypothecated in the absence of a registration statement in effect
with respect to the securities under such Act or an opinion of counsel
satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not required or unless
sold pursuant to Rule 144 of such Act."
3.9 Tax Advisors. Such Investor has reviewed with such
Investor's own tax advisors the federal, state and local tax consequences of
this investment, where applicable, and the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. Each such Investor is relying solely on such advisors and not on any
statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents and
understands that each such Investor (and not the Company) shall be responsible
for such Investor's own tax liability that may arise as a result of this
investment or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
3.10 Eligibility to Hold Preferred Stock. Each Investor is not
aware of any fact which, upon consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby, would: (a) make such Investor ineligible or unqualified to hold the
Series A Preferred Stock and/or Series B Preferred Stock under any material
statute, law, rule, regulation, instrument, order, judgment, writ, decree
14
19
or contract, including but not limited to the Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, and the rules and regulations of the FCC (other than the FCC Approval
required in connection with the Second Closing, as contemplated by Section
1.2(b)); or (b) render the Company ineligible or unqualified to hold the
authorizations granted to it by the FCC or, in the Investors' reasonable
judgment, jeopardize the Company's ability to hold such authorizations as a
result of foreign ownership, criminal convictions or other ground for
forfeiture, cancellation, revocation under the rules and regulations of the FCC
or the imposition of a monetary forfeiture, provided that no Investor is
required by this Section to make any representations as to the citizenship,
character or proportionate stock ownership of any other Investor.
