18 Roles and responsibilities Bidding Implementation Operations Joint Undertaking/ Successor Body Procure PPP Co-ordination with ESA Development work Specify performance Regular monitoring of deployment Assist with market development Monitor performance Assess performance Specify performance for next generation Support to the concession Bidder / Concessionaire Business plan Revenue System procurement Financing System Contracts Financing System deployment and testing Market development Operate network to maintain signal performance Optimise revenues Co-operate with Regulator Maintain/ replenish system

19 Financing

20 Funding Sources & Uses Development Phase fully funded Development Public 100% by EC/ESA Deployment expected to be funded Partly by the Public Sector (up to 33%) Deployment Public 33% 90% Debt 10% Equity Concessionaire 67% Partly by Concessionaire PPP should facilitate 90% debt 10% equity

21 Financing Considerations We believe Galileo can be financed on this basis through a PPP structure providing there is an appropriate and bankable risk allocation Likely Allocation Risks Joint Undertaking Concessionaire System Contactor System Completion Demand - Licence & Regulator - System Performance Political Risk - PPP procurement process will propose an appropriate allocation of risk

22 Conclusions

23 Conclusions Strong commercial opportunity To capitalise on a rapidly growing market To mitigate risk through PPP To establish a financeable structure and practical process
