On January 30, 2007, ORBCOMM Inc. (the "Company") sent Quake Global, Inc.
("Quake") a notice that the Subscriber Communicator Manufacturing Agreement

to pay past due royalty fees. In December 2006, the Company sent a notice of
default to Quake for its failure to pay such royalty fees. Quake was one of
three active manufacturers of subscriber communicators for use on the ORBCOMM

Communications Ltd. subsidiary and MobiApps, Inc. The Company has initiated
discussions with other potential manufacturers to manufacture subscriber
communicators for use on the ORBCOMM Communication System.
