MUTUAL
NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT

 

This Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into on November 9,
2005, by and between ICO Satellite Services General Partnership (“ICO”), and International
Launch Services, Inc. (“Company”) in connection with discussions relating
to the acquisition of launch vehicle services from Company (the “Discussions”).
ICO and Company each expect to furnish (in such capacity, a “Disclosing Party”)
to one another (in such capacity, a “Receiving Party”) certain oral and written
nonpublic, confidential information in connection with the Discussions. All
such Information furnished to the Receiving Party or any of its Representatives
(as defined below) by the Disclosing Party or its Representatives (Irrespective
of the form of communication and whether such information is so furnished
before, on or after the date hereof), and all analyses, compilations, data,
studies, notes, interpretations, memoranda or other documents prepared by the
Receiving Party or its Representatives containing or based in whole or in part on
any such furnished information are collectively referred to herein as the “Information.”
With respect to information furnished by Company, such information shall
include any information furnished by or on behalf of Company, Lockheed Martin
Corporation (“LMC”), Lockheed Martin Commercial Launch Services, Inc. (“LMCLS”)
or Lockheed Khrunichev Energia International, Inc. (“LKEI”). With respect
to information provided to Company, Company shall be authorised to disclose
such information to LMC, LMCLS and/or LKEI to the extent permitted and subject
to the terms and conditions contained in Section 1(b). All information
exchanged between ICO and Company shall, if in tangible form, be marked with a
legend of “Proprietary”, “Business Confidential” or similarly marked or labeled
by the Disclosing Party before being disclosed to the Receiving Party.

 

The term “Information” does not include any information which, as
evidenced by a written record, (i) at the time of disclosure or thereafter
is generally available to the public (other than as a result of a disclosure
directly or indirectly by the Receiving Party or its Representatives in
violation of this Agreement or any other obligation to maintain confidentiality
of said information), (ii) is or becomes available to the Receiving Party
on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Disclosing Party or
its Representatives, provided that,
to the Receiving Party’s best knowledge, after reasonable inquiry, such source
was not prohibited from disclosing such information to the Receiving Party by a
legal, contractual or fiduciary obligation (iii) was in the Receiving
Party’s possession or knowledge prior to its being furnished by or on behalf of
the Disclosing Party, as can be reasonably demonstrated upon request and, provided that the source of such information was not, to the
best knowledge of the Receiving Party, after reasonable inquiry, prohibited
from disclosing such information to the Receiving Party by a legal, contractual
or fiduciary obligation; (iv) can be demonstrated by the Receiving Party
to have been developed by the Receiving Party independently of any disclosure
of such information by the Disclosing Party as can be reasonably demonstrated
upon request; and/or (v) was communicated by the Disclosing Party to an
unaffiliated third party free of any obligation of confidence.

 

1

 

In consideration of such information being furnished, each Receiving
Party agrees to the following:

 

1.                                       Except
as otherwise provided herein, or as otherwise approved in writing by the
Disclosing Party, all information furnished by the Disclosing Party or its
Representatives will be kept strictly confidential by the Receiving Party in
accordance with the terms hereof, will not be used by the Receiving Party other
than in connection with the consideration or evaluation of the Discussions, and
will not be disclosed by the Receiving Party or any of its Representatives,
except (a) as required by applicable law, regulation, regulatory or legal
process, and only after compliance with Section 3 below, and (b) that
the Receiving Party may disclose the Information or portions thereof to
those of its directors, officers, affiliates, and employees and representatives
of its legal, accounting and technical and financial advisors and agents (the
persons to whom such disclosure is permissible being collectively referred to
herein as “Representatives”) who such party reasonably believes need to know such
information for the sole purpose of considering the Discussions and who are
authorized pursuant to applicable U.S. export control laws and licenses or
other approvals to receive such Information; provided,
that such party’s Representatives (i) are informed of this Agreement and
the confidential and proprietary nature of the Information; (ii) are
obligated in writing or by virtue of a fiduciary relationship, to treat such
Information confidentially. In a manner that is at least as restrictive as the
terms of this Agreement and not to use it other than in connection with the
consideration or evaluation of the Discussions to the extent provided in this
Agreement; and (iii) do not include competitors of the Disclosing Party. Notwithstanding
the above, under no circumstances will such Information be provided to a Party’s
third-party technical advisors include any key financial and pricing terms of
the Disclosing Party. The Receiving Party agrees to be responsible for any
breach of the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement by any of its
Representatives (it being understood, that such responsibility shall be in
addition to and not by way of limitation of any right or remedy a party may have
against the Receiving Party’s Representatives with respect to any such breach).
Each party shall immediately notify the other upon discovery of any loss or
unauthorized disclosure of the Information of the other party. Neither party
shall communicate any Information to the other in violation of the proprietary
rights of any third party.

 

2.                                       Without
the prior written consent of the Disclosing Party, neither the Receiving Party
nor any of its Representatives will disclose to any person (except to the
extent permitted by Section 1 or as otherwise required by applicable law,
regulation or regulatory or legal process, and only after compliance with Section 3
below), either the fact that any investigations, discussions or negotiations
are taking place, or that the Receiving Party has received Information or
Information has been made available to it, or any of the terms, conditions or
other facts with respect to any such possible Discussions, including the status
thereof.

 

3.                                       If
a Receiving Party or any of its affiliates or Representatives becomes legally
compelled or required by applicable law or regulation or regulatory or legal
process (including by deposition, interrogatory, request for documents,
subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any of the
Information or the information referred to in Section 2 above, the

 

2

 

Receiving Party shall provide the Disclosing Party with prompt prior
written notice of such requirement so that the Disclosing Party may seek a
protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive in writing compliance
with the provisions of this Agreement. If such protective order or other remedy
is not obtained or available and such a written waiver has not been received
from the Disclosing Party that would permit such compelled disclosure, the
Receiving Party (and its Representatives) agrees to disclose only that portion
of the Information or the information referred to in Section 2 above which
is legally required to be disclosed and to take all reasonable steps to
preserve the confidentiality of the Information and the information referred to
in Section 2 above (including, without limitation, by cooperating with the
Disclosing Party to obtain at the Disclosing Party’s cost an appropriate
protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will
be accorded the Information and the information referred to in Section 2
above). Nothing in this Agreement shall limit the Receiving Party from
complying with any legal request as set forth herein or shall require the Receiving
Party to obtain assurances that the Information disclosed in compliance with
such request will be maintained confidentially.

 

4.                                       Information
shall not be reproduced in any form except as required to accomplish the
intent of this Agreement. Any reproduction of any Information (in whole or in
part) of the other party by either party shall remain the property of the
Disclosing Party and shall contain any and all confidential or proprietary
notices or legends which appear on the original, unless otherwise authorized in
writing by the other party.

 

5.                                       If
either party decided, in its sole discretion, that it does not wish to proceed
or continue with the Discussions with the other party, the party so deciding
will promptly inform the other party of that decision. At any time upon
the written request of the Disclosing Party and for any reason, the Receiving
Party will, at the election of the Disclosing Party, either promptly deliver to
the Disclosing Party, as directed in such written request, or destroy all written
documents and other tangible materials representing the Information (including
all copies, extracts or other reproductions in whole or in part thereof)
furnished or it or its Representatives by or on behalf of the Disclosing Party.
All other Information shall be destroyed and no copy thereof shall be retained.
Such destruction shall be certified to in writing by an officer of the
Receiving Party upon the request of the Disclosing Party. Notwithstanding the
return or destruction of the Information, the Receiving Party and its
Representatives will continue to be bound by its obligations of confidentiality
and other obligations hereunder.

 

6.                                       The
Receiving Party understands and acknowledges that neither the Disclosing Party
nor any of its Representatives or affiliates is making any representation or
warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of the Information,
and neither the Disclosing Party nor any of its Representatives or affiliates
will have any liability to the Receiving Party or any other person resulting
from the use of the Information by it or its affiliates or Representatives. Only
those representations or warranties that are made in a definitive agreement
relating to the Discussions (a “Definitive Agreement”) when, as, and if it is
executed, and subject to such limitations and restrictions as may be
specified in such Definitive Agreement, will have any legal effect. The term “Definitive
Agreement” does not include a non-binding letter of intent or any

 

3

 

other non-binding preliminary written agreement (whether or not
executed), nor does it include any written or oral acceptance of any offer or
bid.

 

7.                                       Each
party understands and agrees that no contract or agreement shall be deemed to
exist unless and until a Definitive Agreement has been executed and delivered
by all relevant parties thereto, and each party also agrees that unless and
until a Definitive Agreement between the parties or any of its subsidiaries or
affiliates has been executed and delivered, neither party nor any of its
respective stockholders, affiliates or Representatives has any legal obligation
of any kind whatsoever with respect to such transaction by virtue of this
Agreement or any other written or oral expression with respect to such
transaction except, in the case of this Agreement, for the matters specifically
agreed to herein. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and any other written
agreement between the parties, the parties and their respective Representatives
each will be free to conduct the process for any transaction as such parties in
their sole discretion determine. Each party hereby confirms that it is not
acting as a broker for or Representative of any person.

 

8.                                       Without
limiting the parties’ obligations under this Agreement, each party hereby
acknowledges that it is aware, and that it will advise its Representatives,
that the United States securities laws prohibit any person who has material,
non-public information concerning the matters which are the subject of this
Agreement from purchasing or selling securities of a company which may be
a party to a transaction of the type contemplated by this Agreement or from
communicating such information to any other person under circumstances in which
it is reasonably foreseeable that such person is likely to purchase or sell
such securities. The Receiving Party represents and warrants that no technical data
furnished or disclosed to it by the Disclosing Party shall be disclosed to any
foreign national, nation, firm, or country, including foreign nationals
employed by or associated with the Receiving Party, nor shall any technical
data be exported from the United States without first complying with all
requirements of the applicable U.S. export control laws and regulations,
including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations and the Export
Administration Regulations, including the requirement for obtaining any export
license or authorization if applicable. The Receiving Party shall first obtain
the written consent of the Disclosing Party prior to submitting any request for
authority to export any such technical data.

 

9.                                       Each
party agrees that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach
or threatened breach of this Agreement by it and that the other party or
parties shall be entitled to seek equitable relief, including injunction and
specific performance, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, in
addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity without the necessity
of posting any bond or other security or proving that monetary damages would be
an inadequate remedy. Such remedies shall not be deemed to be the exclusive
remedies for a breach of this Agreement but shall be in addition to all other
remedies available at law or in equity.

10.                                 If
any provision of this Agreement is found to violate any statute, regulation,
rule, order or decree of any governmental authority, court, agency or exchange,
such invalidity shall not be deemed to affect any other provision hereof or the
validity of the remainder of this Agreement, and such invalid provision shall
be changed and interpreted so as to best accomplish the objectives of such unenforceable
or invalid provision within the limits of applicable law or applicable court
decisions.

 

11.                                 Each
party agrees that all (a) contacts or communications by it or its
Representatives with the other party regarding the Information or the
Discussions, (b) requests for additional Information, (c) requests
for facility tours or management meetings and (d) discussions or questions
regarding procedures shall be made only through persons designated by the other
party as persons engaged as participants in, or having knowledge of, the
discussions relating to the Discussions.

 

12.                                 This
Agreement is for the benefit of each party and its respective directors,
officers, employees, representatives and agents and their respective successors
and permitted assigns and shall be governed by, and construed in accordance
with, the law of the State of New York, without giving effect to the principles
of conflicts of laws thereof. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or
obligations hereunder may be assigned, by operation of law or otherwise,
by any party without the prior written consent of the other party, and any interrupted
assignment or transfer by any party not in accordance herewith shall be null
and void.

 

13.                                 This
Agreement represents the entire agreement between the parties with respect to
the subject matter contained herein and may be terminated only by a
writing signed by each of the parties. No provision in this Agreement may be
waived, amended or assigned except in a writing signed by both parties, which
writing shall specifically refer to such provision being affected.

 

14.                                 The
terms of this Agreement will survive for a period of three (3) years from
the date of this Agreement or may be terminated by either party at any
time upon thirty (30) days written notice to the other party. The Receiving
Party’s obligations under this Agreement shall survive termination of the
Agreement between the parties and shall be binding upon the Receiving Party’s
heirs, successors and assigns.

 

15.                                 Miscellaneous.

 

a.                                       For

provided under the Exchange Act.

This Advisory Services Agreement (this “Agreement”)
is entered into as of November 11, 2005, between ICO Global Communications

Inc., a Washington corporation (“ERI”).

 

WHEREAS, ERI is willing to

conditions contained in this Agreement;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in

and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are acknowledged by the execution and delivery hereof, the parties agree as

services hereunder in compliance with this Agreement and all applicable law. In
performing its obligations hereunder, ERI shall act in a manner that it
reasonably believes to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
Company consistent with the agreements and standards set forth herein.

 

ARTICLE 3

SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED

 

Section 3.1.          Duties.

 

Subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, the Company hereby engages ERI and ERI hereby
accepts the engagement, to provide advisory and consulting services to the
Company and its Board of Directors, at the request and direction, from time to
time, of the Company’s Board of Directors, or of any duly appointed and acting
senior executive officer, including without limitation, advice as to the
development, ownership and operation of satellite telecommunications services,
advice concerning long-range planning and strategy for the development and
growth of the Company, advice and support in connection with its dealings with
federal, state and local regulatory authorities, advice regarding employment,
retention and compensation of employees, and assistance in short-term and
long-term financial planning.

 

Section 3.2.          Non-Company
Responsibilities.

 

ERI and its representatives
are at all times specifically permitted to engage in any other business

4.1.            Reimbursement.

 

The
Company shall reimburse ERI for all out-of-pocket expenses (“Out-of-Pocket
Expenses”) reasonably incurred by ERI for goods and services provided by third
parties to, for or on behalf of the Company (including those out-of-pocket
expenses incurred by ERI in traveling to and from and visiting the business of
the Company in connection with providing services under this Agreement). ERI
shall provide the Company with a statement setting forth in reasonable detail
(and with copies of invoices or other supporting documentation) the
Out-of-Pocket Expenses claimed, and the Company shall pay to ERI such amount
within thirty (30) days of receipt of the statement. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event will ERI be
responsible for the payment from its own funds of any expenses, obligations or
liabilities of the Company, unless such expenses, obligations or liabilities
arose directly from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of ERI.

 

Section 4.2.          Advisory

ERI,
in consideration of the terms of this Agreement, shall be paid, commencing on
the date hereof, an advisory fee per annum of $500,000 (the “Advisory Fee”),
payable in equal quarterly installments of $125,000 due on the first (1st)
day of March, June, September, and December, provided that the first such
payment shall be due on the date hereof and shall be prorated to reflect the
Advisory Fee attributable to the period beginning on the date hereof and ending
on the last day of the month. The annual fee can be paid in cash or stock as
determined by the Board of Directors of Company. The amount of the Advisory Fee
shall be subject to re-negotiation from time to time upon the agreement of the
parties.

This
Agreement shall commence on the date hereof and, unless earlier terminated in
accordance herewith, will terminate on the third (3rd) anniversary

end of the then current term.

for any reason, upon not less than ninety (90) days prior written notice to ERI.

 

(b)           By
ERI. ERI may terminate this Agreement:

(30) days following notice thereof from ERI;

this Agreement for any reason, ERI shall be paid all outstanding reimbursable
expenses due to ERI as of the date of termination and any Advisory Fee earned,
but unpaid, for services rendered to the Company on or prior to the date of
such termination, but, except for the issuance of the Warrants in payment of
the Incentive Compensation, ERI shall not otherwise be entitled to compensation
in respect of its services under this Agreement. If this Agreement terminates
other than on the last day of the month, ERI shall promptly reimburse the
Company for the amount of the Advisory Fee paid with respect to such month and
attributable to the period beginning on the date of termination and ending on
the last day of such month. Termination of this Agreement shall not modify the
Company’s obligation to issue the Warrants in payment of the Incentive
Compensation.

 

Section 4.6.          Remedies.

 

The remedies set forth
herein are not intended to be exclusive, and all remedies shall be cumulative

Section 4.7.          Continuing
Obligations.

 

After receipt of written
notice of termination from the Company, but prior to the effective date of such
termination, ERI shall continue to perform under this Agreement unless

termination, ERI and the Company shall remain liable for their respective
obligations accrued under this Agreement prior to the effective date of termination.

ARTICLE 5

LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, ERI shall not be
liable for any failure or delay in its performance hereunder or for any
performance which is substandard, except where such failure, delay or
substandard performance is the result of willful misconduct or gross negligence
on the part of ERI. ERI shall not be responsible to the Company for any
indirect, incidental, consequential or special damages to the Company, the
business of the Company or any subscriber or customer of any business of the
Company or any other person, including any damage to or loss of revenues,
business or goodwill, suffered by any person or entity for any failure of any system
or failure of performance hereunder.

 

ARTICLE 6

INDEMNIFICATION; EXPENSES

 

Section 6.1.           Indemnification.

 

In the event ERI is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action,
suit, or proceeding (a “Proceeding”), whether civil, criminal, administrative,
or investigative (whether or not by or in the right of the Company), by reason
of the fact that ERI is or was ERI of the Company under the terms hereof, ERI
shall be entitled to be indemnified by the Company to the full extent then
permitted by law against expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements and
fees and disbursements for mediation, arbitration, trial and appeal),
judgments, fines (including excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to
an employee benefit plan), and amounts paid in settlement incurred by it in
connection with such Proceeding.

 

Section 6.2.          Advancement
of Expenses.

 

The Company shall from time
to time, reimburse or advance to ERI the funds necessary for payment of
expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred in connection
with any Proceeding, in advance of the final disposition of such Proceeding, provided
the Company receives an undertaking by or on behalf of ERI to repay any such
amount so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial
decision from which there is no further right of appeal that ERI is not
entitled to be indemnified for such expenses.
