To whom itmay Concern,
This letter will serve as a request for an exemption of the above sections of title 14 CFRfor Endpoint Realty LLC, henceforth referred to as the petitioner,for the purpose of conducting commercial "aerial photography, videography, search and rescue, home inspections, and survey operations" using a small Unmanned AircraftSystem (sUAS) in FAA controlled airspace. As described herein, the petitioner has staff who are experienced in the operation ofUAS, including but not limited to,flying multicopters of varying sizes under 55 pounds using both Visual Line Of Sight (VLOS) and on board camera controls. Thefollowing petition provides all necessaryfrl.formation tojustify an exemptionfrom the above listed FederalAviation Regulations. The UnmannedAircraftSystem The petitioner will be operating a D]I Phantom 3 (manual attached). The Petitioner made add additional airframes. to th.eir inventory as requirefrom the D]I or other lines. The petitioner will operate the airframe within its design parameters. The sUAS has built infunctionality that can limit the height it flies above the ground, limit the distance between the aircraft and PIC, and restrict the sUAS fromflying in class B, C, and Dairspace. The aircraftalso comes preinstalled with the ability to automatically return to the PIC and land if any of the previous restrictions are violated, or if the connection to the wireless controller is lost

Page 1The sUAS weighs 2935grams Gust under 6pounds) while carrying all necessary batteries and cameras. It also has a maxspeed of 22 meters persecond Gust under43 knots) that can be limitedprior to takeoff. The UnmannedAircraftPIC The company operator and PIC fames KWarta is an FM licensedprivate pilot and is an sUAS experienced operator. sUAS Operation Overview The sUAS will be operated to provide aerialphotography, videography, andsurvey services to the public sector, particularly for the purposes of real estate, events, andproperfJlsurveys. Prior to the operation,flight restrictions will be programmed into to sUAS to prevent it fromflying 400 feet above ground level. Before takeoff, the operator and observer will review the preGflight checklistand survey the area to determine 

### if weather/cloud conditions are suitable for flight and what the emergency landing sites would be. Once the operation is complete, the sUAS will be inspected to determine 

### if any maintenance will be needed before the nextoperation. Compared to traditional flights using mannedaircraft,flights using sUAS are much less dangerous and therefor would notadversely affectsafefJl:
• The nature of theseflights will restrict the use of the sUAS to a small area where all nearby persons can be aware of the ongoingflight • The sUAS carries no explosive materials or combustible liquid fuel. • The light weight of the sUAS would cause minimal damage in the event of an airborne failure, especially when compared to traditional manned aircraftwith airworthiness certificates. • The smallsize of the sUAS would allow for all operations to be conducted within a clearly defined area, including takeoffs and landings. All flights by the PIC will begin and remain outside of a 5 mile radius of any airport The s!JAS has a mandatory, built-infunctionalifJl to restrict the aircraft fromflying within this radius and will automatically land 

### if

it inadvertently violates this restriction. Any and allprecautions will be taken by the PIC and the accompanying Observer to preventmidair collisions with objects and other aircraft, even outside the 5 mile radius of airports. Allpianned operations utilizing the sUAS will be completedsafely. With the combination of the preflight safel:J' riskassessmentspreviously discussed and the inherently reduced risk of flying a sUAS compared to a traditional manned aircraft, the PIC will be able to provide a level of safetygreater than the traditional method of performing aerial basedphotography, videography, andsurvey operations. Benefit to Public Interest The services provided by the petitioner would be agreat benefit to thepublic as a whole. Granting this exemption would reduce the need for traditional forms of aerialphotography, videography, andsurveys which, as previously discussed, are much more dangerous than operations performed by sUAS. The cost of sUAS operations is also significantly lower than traditional aerialphotography flights, making these services available to smaller Page2businesses or individuals that otherwise may notbe able to afford them. This in turn allows businesses to better serve their clients, increasing the public benefitas a whole. Conclusion All commercial sUAS flights by the petitionershallsatisfy the criteria provided in Section 333 of the ReformAct of 2012, including: size, weight, speed,flight within VLOS, distancefrom PIC, distance from airports, operation capabilities, maintaining safety, and the benefit to the public. These qualifications more thanjustifY granting the petitioner, Cornerstone Technology Services, LLC, with an exemption to the statedsections of title 14 CFR.

Page3 The requests of this petition are similar to those of Marcus D. Melhus, Ralph]. Apel, Cornerstone Technology Services, LLCandSaratoga Aerialand Video, all of whom have receivedSection 333 exemptions for use of comparable aircraft for similar operations. Thankyouforyour time and consideration. Sincerely,
