organisation - Typical applications are designed to be used in a
Local Area Network (LAN) environment - Mobile use is growing faster than any other
method. End users are not in an office (or dont
want to be) - Inmarsat Data Solutions (esp,) BGAN, are Business
Enablers to improve efficiency where and when
such normal office connections are not
available - BGAN has a far wider reach than other third
generation services and can be just as cost
competitive - BGAN is secure and totally independent of local
infrastructure
13What does the customer need?
- Global or regional coverage?

39Feedback on strategic questions
- Can Inmarsat take a share of handheld MSS voice
market with BGAN? - Print media voice will be a nice add-on, but
we will not get rid of our Thuraya handsets - Print media voice on the move is a key
requirement - Print media voice capability of BGAN is a key
benefit - Implication BGAN can displace elements of MSS
voice - Can Inmarsat attack low-end VSAT market with
BGAN? - Media We currently swap to VSAT after 8 weeks
- Construction We will not deploy VSAT if
project duration is less than six months - Broadcast bonding two BGAN terminals will
enable us to replace our VSAT trucks - Implication Some indication that convenience is
more important than price

43BGAN Competition The Competitive Environment
for BGAN and Positioning for Success
44BGAN market space (1)
- Inmarsat has conducted an extensive programme of
market intelligence since Q1 2004 - Total market for L-band voice services is
estimated to be 500m with an installed base of
around 500,000 annual ARPU of 1k. - Total market for next-generation L-band services
is predicted to be worth 800m a year by 2010
with 50,000 installed units annual ARPU of
16k. Source Northern Sky Research - Total VSAT market estimated as 38bn in 2002 but
less than 5 related to corporate communications.
IP broadband via satellite is still a nascent
market. Source Bain
45BGAN market space (2)
- Predicting the addressable market for BGAN is
challenging - Market is still emergent
- BGAN is a completely new product proposition
- Slow development to date of terrestrial
high-speed mobile data market - Inmarsat has concluded that BGAN will occupy a
unique market position, with only small overlap
with other technologies

47BGAN market space (4)
- Portable high speed data
- Rapid deployment, highly moveable, stationary
during use - BGANs primary market
- Very limited competition within MSS
- Semi-fixed applications
- Transportable but only moved occasionally,
- VSAT services offering high data speeds (up to 4
Mbps) with bulky, expensive equipment - Possible for BGAN to compete in some
circumstances
48BGAN market space (5)
- Fixed
- Never moves portability is therefore not a
factor - VSAT services offering high data speeds (up to
30Mbps) with equipment costs either the same or
lower that BGAN - Possible for BGAN to compete in very limited
circumstances - Mobile
- Consumer and business voice and low speed data
services - High levels of competition from cellular and MSS
handheld - BGAN cannot compete directly as not truly mobile
- Voice traffic will be an upside from a primarily
data sale
49BGAN market space (6)
- In same location for an extended period
- Campus
- gt1 week up to several months
- On the move/pause
- Nomad
- Up to one week in the same location
- Permanent installation
- Alternatives are unreliable, low bandwidth,
expensive or slow to deploy

62BGAN - market segment
Target Usage Segment
Motivation to buy BGAN
- Use BGAN functional advantage to gain market
share with aggressive pricing options for data,
to counter semi-fixed VSAT and competitive voice
vs. other MSS to up-sell voice - Maximise lease opportunities
- Attract voice only usage once terminal is
purchased/deployed
New market opportunity Can compete Main market
63Inmarsats supplier level competitive advantages
- Market leader for 25 years with established
customer base - Recognised brand amongst core segments - global
coverage, service reliability, GMDSS - Portfolio to address varying needs
- Global channel presence
- Next generation satellites one successfully
launched and second to be launched shortly fully
funded - Clear migration path to next generation,
high-value services
64Your service level competitive factors
- Building loyalty with your SPs customers
through service enrichments and attractive
pricing points - Understanding of your SP/customer needs
- Knowledge of which solution best fits
SP/customers needs - Before and after sales services
- Value-added services
65BGAN Unleashing The Power Of The Demonstration
66BGAN selling-demonstrationsTrain your
salespeople to be able to develop and deliver a
20 minute customised demonstration that shows the
customera) Something that matches the
customers own application needb) Highlights
your most relevant USPsc) How the value chain
can enhance their productivityd) How BGAN will
reduce their costs!!e) Something that
demonstrates how BGAN beats the competition
67BGAN PricingCreating The Best Packages to
Attract The Right Customers
68BGAN offers value for money not just commodity
units
- The feature richness of BGAN should always be
sold over and above the actual cost of a minute
or megabyte - What is the value of flexibility? Having the
ability to up move your remote office at short
notice, without having to re-install connectivity
at a new site with the project downtime this may
cause is invaluable. - Real time file transfers can mean real money to a
company, minute 1, a file can be worth 100k,
minute 3, 50k, minute 5 onwards 0
69BGAN pricing strategy - core positioning
- High-speed mobile data with voice
- Unique BGAN is a leader, not a follower
- A premium service
- Still largely a multi-niche play
- Need to move focus away from price to overall
value
BGAN is a superior integrated product offering
based on reliability, performance, ubiquitous
coverage, security, portability and flexibility

75BGAN Packages What are they?
- Standard pricing model for Broadband data, both
in fixed line and cellular industries with
typically a minimum contract duration. - Inclusive allowances of Standard IP and Voice for
a fixed monthly subscription fee. - Improved value for increased monthly
subscription.
76BGAN Packages Why have them?
- With high data speeds and increased traffic
volumes, paying on a per MByte basis is not
always a suitable pricing model. - End users want fixed costs to avoid bill shock,
as it becomes more difficult to predict usage
volumes. - Benefits to SPs
- Convert unpredictable usage based revenues to
predictable subscription based revenues. - Minimum contract duration ties users in, allowing
opportunity to have an on-going relationship with
users. - Low data prices to change perception of Inmarsat
being expensive to broaden market reach for BGAN. - Increased margins as users usually purchase
allowances that are larger than their
requirements. Any usage outside allowance will be
at a rate higher than the implied rate in the
allowance.
77BGAN Packages Options for DPs SPs
- Use standard Inmarsat packages as building blocks
to create new retail packages. Improves
differentiation and helps to target different
market and customer segments. - Example
- Inmarsat Standard IP allowances are 20, 100, 750
2,000MBs. SPs should fill in the gaps with
own packages. - Minimum duration subscription based pricing gives
the opportunity to include a subsidy for
terminals. - Ability to create bespoke allowances for
individual customers
78Package Options
- Reducing prices in bundles
- Increasing subscription
- Increased access to services
79Pricing Things You Should Know (1)
- There is a minimum charge for circuit switched
voice, data and streaming data based on a minimum
duration - There is a minimum charge for standard IP data
based on data volume - These minimum charges will apply to each CDR
- If a single call or IP session straddles more
than one CDR then the minimum charges may apply
more than once to that session - This will only be significant if the call length
or data amount is not as great as the minimum
call length or data volume charging thresholds.
