A key factor of the ICT overhaul is the provision of reliable and consistent broadband connectivity for Internet usage on its fleet of high-speed trains.</div>

<div style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 1.25">The project consists of nearly one hundred trains, all of Renfe AGV (Automotrice Grande Vitesse) high-speed train fleet. Gilat&#8217;s&#160;broadband connectivity for trains is now being implemented, with initial deployment planned for this quarter.</div>

<div style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 1.25">Gilat was chosen by Aicox, the project integrator to join a consortium of leading players delivering satellite based reliable broadband connectivity to Renfe&#8217;s high-speed trains. Gilat&#8217;s ER-7000 antenna passed rigorous testing and certifications, including the stringent European EN 50155 compliance requirements.</div>
