     (a) Definitions. Contracting Officer, as used in this clause, does not
     include any representative of the Contracting Officer.



Specifically Authorized Representative (SAR), as used in this clause, means any
person the Contracting Officer has so designated by written notice (a copy of
which shall be provided to the Contractor) which shall refer to this
subparagraph and shall be issued to the designated representative before the SAR
exercises such authority.

     (b) Notice. The primary purpose of this clause is to obtain prompt
     reporting of Government conduct that the Contractor considers to constitute
     a change to this contract. Except for changes identified as such in writing
     and signed by the Contracting Officer, the Contractor shall notify the
     Administrative Contracting Officer in writing promptly, within [ ] (to be
     negotiated) calendar days from the date that the Contractor identifies any
     Government conduct (including actions, inactions, and written or oral
     communications) that the Contractor regards as a change to the contract
     terms and conditions. On the basis of the most accurate information
     available to the Contractor, the notice shall state -

     (1) The date, nature, and circumstances of the conduct regarded as a
     change;

     (2) The name, function, and activity of each Government individual and
     Contractor official or employee involved in or knowledgeable about such
     conduct;

     (3) The identification of any documents and the substance of any oral
     communication involved in such conduct;

     (4) In the instance of alleged acceleration of scheduled performance or
     delivery, the basis upon which it arose;

     (5) The particular elements of contract performance for which the
     Contractor may seek an equitable adjustment under this clause, including -

               (i) What contract line items have been or may be affected by the
               alleged change;

               (ii) What labor or materials or both have been or may be added,
               deleted, or wasted by the alleged change;

               (iii) To the extent practicable, what delay and disruption in the
               manner and sequence of performance and effect on continued
               performance have been or may be caused by the alleged change;

               (iv) What adjustments to contract price, delivery schedule, and
               other provisions affected by the alleged change are estimated;
               and

     (6) The Contractor's estimate of the time by which the Government must
     respond to the Contractor's notice to minimize cost, delay or disruption of
     performance.

     (c) Continued performance. Following submission of the notice required by
     paragraph (b) of this clause, the Contractor shall diligently continue
     performance of this contract to the maximum extent possible in accordance
     with its terms and conditions as construed by the Contractor, unless the
     notice reports a direction of the Contracting Officer or a communication
     from a SAR of the Contracting Officer, in either of which events the
     Contractor shall continue performance; provided, however, that if the
     Contractor regards the direction or communication as a change as described
     in paragraph (b) of this clause, notice shall be given in the manner
     provided. All directions, communications, interpretations, orders and
     similar actions of the SAR shall be reduced to writing promptly and copies
     furnished to the Contractor and to the Contracting Officer. The Contracting
     Officer shall promptly countermand any action which exceeds the authority
     of the SAR.

     (d) Government response. The Contracting Officer shall promptly, within [ ]
     (to be negotiated) calendar days after receipt of notice, respond to the
     notice in writing. In responding, the Contracting Officer shall either -

     (1) Confirm that the conduct of which the Contractor gave notice
     constitutes a change and when necessary direct the mode of further
     performance;

     (2) Countermand any communication regarded as a change;



     (3) Deny that the conduct of which the Contractor gave notice constitutes a
     change and when necessary direct the mode of further performance; or

     (4) In the event the Contractor's notice information is inadequate to make
     a decision under subparagraphs (d)(l), (2), or (3) of this clause, advise
     the Contractor what additional information is required, and establish the
     date by which it should be furnished and the date thereafter by which the
     Government will respond.

     (e) Equitable adjustments. (1) If the Contracting Officer confirms that
     Government conduct effected a change as alleged by the Contractor, and the
     conduct causes an increase or decrease in the Contractor's cost of, or the
     time required for, performance of any part of the work under this contract,
     whether changed or not changed by such conduct, an equitable adjustment
     shall be made

               (i) In the contract price or delivery schedule or both; and

               (ii) In such other provisions of the contract as may be affected.

     (2) The contract shall be modified in writing accordingly. In the case of
     drawings, designs or specifications which are defective and for which the
     Government is responsible, the equitable adjustment shall include the cost
     and time extension for delay reasonably incurred by the Contractor in
     attempting to comply with the defective drawings, designs or specifications
     before the Contractor identified, or reasonably should have identified,
     such defect. When the cost of property made obsolete or excess as a result

1.   EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

ORBCOMM Inc. is pleased to respond to your Request for Proposal (RFP) to provide
Technical Capability and Management Support Services for the US Coast Guard
Automatic Identification System (AIS)(as defined by 33 Code of Fedral
Regulations Part 164 and the international standards incorporated therein).
ORBCOMM possesses the right technology, capabilities and is uniquely positioned
to support this effort. We stand confident that by using ORBCOMM the U.S. Coast
Guard will be able to collect and process AIS data via our satellite system to
provide additional maritime domain awareness of all maritime activities out to
2,000nm off the coast of the United States and beyond. This is clearly a major
initiative, and the solution proposed by ORBCOMM will allow both an expanded
scope and greatly benefit your desired results by providing exciting new
telecommunication capabilities at the lowest possible cost.

WHY ORBCOMM?

ORBCOMM has become an emerging force in the satellite telecommunications
industry and is well positioned to support this effort. We are excited about the
opportunity to work with the U.S. Coast Guard and are committed to providing a
robust and cost effective solution for AIS.

Through our unique global network of satellites and terrestrial gateways,
information can be shared with tremendous reach. ORBCOMM provides narrowband
two-way digital messaging, data communications and geo-positioning services on a
global basis. Services are provided through our constellation of 30 owned and
operated low earth orbit (LEO) satellites and gateways located around the world.

(ORBCOMM(R) LOGO)                                                COAST GUARD AIS

Over the past several years, companies such as Caterpillar, Volvo Trucks,
Komatsu, GE Transportation, GE TIP, GE Medical, General Motors, Garmin, CSX,
XATA, and providers to several government programs have selected ORBCOMM and
integrated our services into their products and communication solutions. The
ubiquitous coverage provided by the ORBCOMM system was a major factor in its

technology and terrestrial systems, which are hampered by "blind spots", "dead
zones", and "limited coverage". ORBCOMM is a very affordable solution that
provided greater flexibility for many differing needs.

Manufacturers, customers, and resellers have selected the ORBCOMM System because
it provides:

- -    Unified global solution

- -    Lower technology risks

- -    Consolidated quantities of systems globally, greatly reduce price points

- -    High performance, easily installed and concealed antenna options

- -    Mature, ruggedized and vehicle grade OEM modem options

- -    Elimination of expensive roaming charges

- -    Ubiquitous coverage for communications

The ORBCOMM system provides low cost solutions with global coverage and is
uniquely positioned to provide the extended AIS services being sought by the
U.S. Coast Guard.

2.2  Satellites and Space Elements

Today ORBCOMM has 30 operational satellites in six orbital planes between
approximately 740 and 825 kilometers above the Earth. ORBCOMM has authority to
launch and operate up to 48 satellites to accommodate future growth. Planes A,
B, C, and D are inclined 45 degrees to the Equator and contain six to eight
satellites each. Planes F and G are inclined at 70 and 108 degrees,
respectively, and contain one satellite each.

The satellites are equipped with a VHF and UHF communication payload capable of
operation in the 137.0-150.05 MHz and the 400.075-400.125 MHz bands. An on-board
computer manages spectrum usage via the ORBCOMM-pioneered Dynamic Channel
Activity Assignment System (DCAAS). DCAAS continuously scans the authorized
spectrum, identifies frequencies in use by other users of the frequency band and
assigns channels to practically eliminate the possibility of interference.

2.3  Ground Infrastructure

The ORBCOMM ground infrastructure includes elements strategically located
throughout the world. These ground network elements provide access to the space
segment and an interface with public and private data networks including the
Internet. They include:

     -    Gateway Earth Station, or GES. A GES has two radomes with enclosed VHF
          tracking antennas (one is basically redundant), pedestals,
          controllers, and radio equipment.

     -    Gateway Control Centers, or GCC. A GCC processes the message traffic
          and provides the interconnection with other terrestrial networks.

Each GES contains a freestanding shelter, fuel tank and power generator. The
GES-to-satellite links make use of single satellite uplink and downlink channels
using a Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) protocol. This protocol permits
several gateways to communicate simultaneously with a single satellite and vice
versa. Advantages of TDMA include the ability to provide a virtually seamless
transfer of satellite connections among GESs, under the centralized control of
the GCC.

Each GES covers an area with a radius of approximately 3,300 miles. There are
four GESs in the United States, located in New York, Arizona, Georgia, and
Washington State. There are GESs in Curacao, Brazil, Italy, Japan, South Korea,
Malaysia, Morocco and Argentina.

(b) The Offeror shall provide immediate written notice to the Contracting
Officer if, at any time prior to contract award, the Offeror learns that its
certification was erroneous when submitted or has become erroneous by reason of
changed circumstances.

(c) A certification that any of the items in paragraph (a) of this provision
exists will not necessarily result in withholding of an award under this
solicitation. However, the certification will be considered in connection with a
determination of the Offeror's responsibility. Failure of the Offeror to furnish
a certification or provide such additional information as requested by the
Contracting Officer may render the Offeror nonresponsible.

(d) Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be construed to require
establishment of a system of records in order to render, in good faith, the
certification required by paragraph (a) of this provision. The knowledge and
information of an Offeror is not required to exceed that which is normally
possessed by a prudent person in the ordinary course of business dealings.

(e) The certification in paragraph (a) of this provision is a material
representation of fact upon which reliance was placed when making award. If it
is later determined that the Offeror knowingly rendered an erroneous
certification, in addition to other remedies available to the Government, the
Contracting Officer may terminate the contract resulting from this solicitation
for default.
