Notes to Editors



SatCom is a global reseller of airtime services and satellite systems hardware
(mobile handsets and data terminals) for major satellite systems operators,
including Inmarsat, Thuraya and Iridium.  SatCom's key target markets include
the US, Europe, Asia, Middle East and the maritime community worldwide.



SatCom is based in Salisbury in the UK, with further offices in the USA, Dubai
and throughout the Asia region.  SatCom has established a robust customer base
in excess of 15,000 active terminals and is able to offer all communication
solutions.



Products range from small, handheld phones through to terminals such as the
Inmarsat B-GAN, a high speed satellite Internet Protocol modem operating at
speeds of up to 432 kbits/s.   In addition, SatCom provides airtime services via
the three satellite operators to key customers including dealers, commercial
companies and Governments.



The user terminals are used with a SIM card that is registered by the end user
at www.simreg.com. This website is proprietary to SatCom, allowing SatCom to
register terminals and for customers to purchase prepaid airtime online.





Iridium is the only operator to offer a fully global, mobile satellite system,
providing voice and data solutions via a network of 66 low earth orbit ("LEO")
satellites built by Boeing. The Iridium service is delivered to and from remote
areas so is ideally suited for industrial applications such as heavy
construction, defence, maritime, oil and gas and aviation.



Thuraya offers cost effective satellite services to nearly one third of the
globe. Thuraya's satellite operations cover Europe, the Middle East, North
Africa and the Indian subcontinent and operate via a geo-stationary satellite
system.  The Thuraya system includes a second satellite launched in early 2003
and a third satellite is planned in order to expand system capacity even
further.

Inmarsat was the world's first global mobile satellite communications operator
and is still the only one to offer a mature range of modern communications
services to maritime, land-mobile, aeronautical and other users.  It operates a
constellation of geo-stationary satellites designed to extend phone, fax and
data communications all over the world.
