using Tx-Rx of 100 MHz, option F2 is recommended for SA. Refarming of current licensees may be
                   required to align with this option.

The Final International Mobile Telecommunications Roadmap 2014 envisaged a scenario that the
                   Radio Frequency Spectrum Assignment Plans  for IMT were to be developed.  Subsequent to the
                   publication of the IMT Roadmap 2014 the following IMT RFSAPs were published:

x   IMT 450
                      x   IMT 700

x   IMT 750
                      x   IMT 800

x   IMT 850
                      x   IMT 900

x   IMT 2300
                      x   IMT 2600
                      x   IMT 3500

The  following  Foot  Notes ("FN") are an extract  from the National Radio Frequency Plan 2018
                   (NRFP-18). The following FN are applicable to IMT Systems:

NF8A (694 - 862 MHz)

Transitional Arrangements

The Authority resolved the following transitional arrangements for the right of use of spectrum
                   in the frequency range 694 to 862 MHz:
                   (i) That Broadcasting Spectrum Assignments for the frequency band above 694 MHz, in the

affected areas as stipulated in the Terrestrial Broadcasting Frequency Plan (Notice No.
                   298 of 2013 in Government Gazette No. 36321 and Notice No. 801 of 2014 in

Government Gazette 38005 or the latest version), are to be used subject to meeting the
                   conformance requirements in line with the GE06 Plan and are to be phased out during the
                   performance period.

(ii) That broadcast transmissions and services ancillary to broadcasting for the frequency
                   range 694 to 862 MHz is to be systematically switched off.

(iii) That matters related to spectrum management geared at minimising and or preventing
                   harmful interference during the transitional arrangement period, is to be managed by the
                   Authority to achieve systematic implementation and seamless transition.
