link2 "Item 4. Purpose of Transaction"

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction .

The Reporting Persons currently expect to exercise their right to acquire the Shares. Assuming they do so, the Reporting Persons (a) will be acquiring the Shares for investment purposes only, (b) expect to evaluate on an ongoing basis the Company’s financial condition, business, operations and prospects, the market price of the Common Stock, conditions in the securities markets generally, general economic and industry conditions and other factors, (c) expect in particular to consider reductions in their holdings of Shares as and when market conditions permit, (d) may dispose of Shares from time to time in public or private transactions and (e) may enter into privately negotiated derivative transactions with institutional counterparties to hedge the market risk of some or all of their positions in the Shares. The Reporting Persons reserve the right to change their plans and intentions at any time.

Except as set forth in this Item 4, the Reporting Persons have no present plans or proposals that relate to or that would result in any of the actions specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Schedule 13D.

link2 "Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer"

No other person has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Shares.

No Reporting Person has ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the shares of Common Stock.

link2 "Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer"

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer .

On June 22, 2006, TMI Delaware entered into a letter agreement with Motient (the “Letter Agreement”) which gave TMI Delaware the right, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, to enter into an exchange agreement with Motient (the “Exchange Agreement”) pursuant to which TMI Delaware would acquire the Shares in exchange for the TerreStar Shares. On September 25, 2006, the last material condition to that right was satisfied, and as a result as of September 25, 2006 the Reporting Persons are deemed to have acquired beneficial ownership of the Shares.

TMI Delaware may exercise its right to require Motient to enter into the Exchange Agreement at any time on or prior to the earlier of (a) ten days before public announcement by Motient of its planned dividend of shares of common stock of SkyTerra Communications, Inc. (“SkyTerra”) that Motient received in the previously announced exchange transactions between Motient and SkyTerra (the “Initial Dividend”) and (b) January 15, 2007. The Letter Agreement requires Motient to give TMI Delaware at least twenty days notice prior to public announcement of the Initial Dividend.

The Letter Agreement provides that except as otherwise provided therein, the Exchange Agreement would be substantially identical to the exchange agreements among Motient, MVH Holdings Inc. and various Columbia and Spectrum funds (the “Funds”) dated as of May 6, 2006.

The Exchange Agreement would provide for a closing as soon as the conditions therein are satisfied, except that if the Initial Dividend is not paid in 2006, the closing would occur as soon as practicable in 2007. If the closing occurs after the record date for the Initial Dividend, the Exchange Agreement would provide that at closing TMI Delaware would receive in exchange for the TerreStar Shares not only the Shares but also the number of shares of SkyTerra common stock that TMI Delaware would have received if the closing had occurred prior to the record date for the Initial Dividend and TMI Delaware had thereafter received its pro rata share of the Initial Dividend.

The Exchange Agreement would provide for Motient to grant TMI Delaware registration rights pursuant to an agreement substantially identical to the terms of the registration rights agreements that Motient entered into with the Funds (except that the registration rights granted to TMI Delaware would last longer).

The Exchange Agreement would grant TMI Delaware the right to have an observer on the board of directors of Motient and all committees of the board of Motient other than the compensation committee and the audit committee. Those rights would terminate when (a) neither TMI Delaware nor an affiliate of TMI Delaware remains the legal holder of the 2

GHz Authorization referred to in the Letter Agreement and (b) TMI Delaware and its affiliates collectively no longer hold all of the shares of common stock of TerreStar Networks Holdings (Canada), Inc. that they initially receive when the 2 Ghz Authorization is transferred to TerreStar Canada as contemplated by the Letter Agreement.

The description of the Letter Agreement contained herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to the executed Letter Agreement, a copy of which has been filed as Exhibit 2 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

Except as described or incorporated by reference herein, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among the Reporting Persons or, to their best knowledge, any of the other persons named in Item 2 or between the Reporting Persons or, to their best knowledge, any of the other persons named in Item 2 and any other person with respect to any securities of the Company, including but not limited to transfer or voting of any of the securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss or the giving or withholding of proxies.
