Version 2.0 10/26/2010 4 of 6 E362 Regulatory Notice Safety Warning The E362 may not be used in an environment where radio frequency equipment is prohibited or restricted in its use. This includes aircraft/airports, hospitals, and other sensitive electronic areas. Do not operate RF devices in an environment that may be susceptible to radio interference resulting in danger, specifically: • Areas where prohibited by the law Follow any special rules and regulations and obey all signs and notices. Always turn off the host device when instructed to do so, or when you suspect that it may cause interference or danger. • Where explosive atmospheres may be present Do not operate your modem in any area where a potentially explosive atmosphere may exist. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Be aware and comply with all signs and instructions. • Users are advised not to operate the modem while at a refueling point or service station. Users are reminded to observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage and distribution areas), chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress. • Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly marked. Potential locations can include gas stations, below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane), areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders, and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. • Near Medical and life support equipment Do not operate your modem in any area where medical equipment, or life support equipment may be located, or near any equipment that may be susceptible to any form of radio interference. In such areas, the host communications device must be turned off. The modem may transmit signals that could interfere with this equipment. • On an aircraft, either on the ground or airborne In addition to FAA requirements, many airline regulations state that you must suspend wireless operations before boarding an airplane. Please ensure that the host device is turned off and your modem is removed from the card slot prior to boarding aircraft in order to comply with these regulations. The modem can transmit signals that could interfere with various onboard systems and controls. • While operating a vehicle The driver or operator of any vehicle should not operate a wireless data device. Doing so will detract from the driver or operator's control and operation of that vehicle. In some countries, operating such communication devices while in control of a vehicle is an offence. Novatel Wireless Inc. Version 2.0 10/26/2010 5 of 6 Under extended operation the E362 modem will generate a noticeable amount of heat.

As the grantee Novatel Wireless is responsible for all integrations and must be consulted on all regulatory matters involving the E362. The module was originally granted by the FCC as a mobile device with respect to RF Exposure compliance. This document outlines what RF Exposure considerations are required when integrating the E362 into a laptop type device. The following installation host configurations are addressed in this document. 1) The E362 module can be installed as a standalone transmitter in notebooks meeting the following conditions: a. Mobile notebooks where >20cm separation distance is provided between the E362 transmitting antenna and the end user. The technical parameters for mobile measurements are defined in Section 2.1. b. Portable notebooks where ≤20cm separation distance is provided between the E362 transmitting antenna that meet the technical parameters defined in Section 3.0. Devices require SAR evaluation and consultation by the grantee (Novatel Wireless) is required. 2) Collocated transmitters that can operate simultaneously with the E362 module is only allowed if the technical requirements defined in Section 3.0 are satisfied. 3) Should end-user installation be available module/notebook Two-Way Authentication is required. Please contact Novatel Wireless and section 2.4.1 for additional details. 4) The FCC and Industry Canada IDs must be permanently affixed on the exterior of the notebook or readily accessible under a panel or battery pack of the host device that cannot be separated from the host device itself. The label must state: This device contains FCC ID: PKRNVWE362 5) These installation guidelines are not applicable to non-notebook host devices or tablet PCs. The installation guidelines are applicable for notebook computers where the E362 and collocated antennas are located in the display portion of a notebook computer. SAR evaluation is completed with the display open at a ninety-degree angle as defined in KDB pub 616217 and Section 4 of KDB pub 447498. Novatel Wireless Inc. Version 3.1 3/7/2011 5 of 9 2.0 Module Installation Guidelines This section defines host installation limitations for mobile and portable hosts. 2.1 Installation Guidelines 2.1.1 Mobile Hosts (WWAN to user separation distance >20cm) The E362 module can be installed for use in any authenticated mobile host device as long as the antenna gain of the host antenna does not exceed the gain listed in table 1. (See section 4.0 for the measurement guidelines of separation between the transmitting antenna and the user.) The modem must not be collocated with other antennas or transmitters unless the guidelines are followed within this document. Please section 3 for collocated information. The maximum E362 conducted power and host antenna gain is listed in Table 1.

Novatel Wireless Inc. FCCID: PKRNVWE362 CRN: 96659/ 96660 1. The grantee is aware that the option to utilize procedures referenced in KDB pub 616217 SUPPLEMENT is available to them and had requested guidance prior to testing through KDB inquiry 689615. Given that there were no reference laptops available suitable to the E362 module (with LTE functionality) this option was not selected. For this program the grantee prefers to test each host in the most conservative mode as outlined in KDB pub 616216 SUPPLEMENT and proceed with Class I changes on subsequent similar platforms. The applicable sections of KDB 447498 will be followed. The Integration guide has been updated to provide additional details with respect to the rules and FCC references. All future module applications that can be used in a portable configuration will be evaluated according to KDB pub 616217 Supplement 2. The integration guide has been updated to address the following statements: Comment Response A grantee knows their own product, and filings need to provide appropriate information to support and demonstrate how integrators and users will be able to comply with RF exposure compliance requirements. The grantee is responsible and must ensure its OEM integrators and distributors are provided with and following the necessary installation and implementation instructions/requirements and relevant grant restrictions to incorporate the approved transmitters and antennas. Please refer to the revised integration guide. Section 1 covers general integration guidelines. FCC Grant Conditions: • This device is mobile with respect to RF Exposure compliance: pg 4 • The antenna must be used at a distance of 20cm: pg 4 • Must not be collocated: Guidelines pg 4 • Specific guidelines regarding RF Exposure: pg 4 • Host responsibility: pg 4 • Antenna gain information: pg5 The instructions must clearly identify the minimum antenna-to-user separation distances applicable to all qualified host products, in terms of general and/or specific and/or example configurations and the relevant antenna installation locations and orientations required and/or acceptable for the allowed host product configurations. Please refer to the revised integration guide. Section 1 covers general integration guidelines. Section 3.0 of the revised installation guide details collocation and other radiating antennas. Section 4 covers antenna distance measurements for portable/mobile designations. Other appropriate information must be provided to support compliance for the simple and basic "keep 20 cm away" condition. Please refer to the revised integration guide. Section 1 covers general integration guidelines for portable and mobile conditions. Section 4 covers antenna distance measurements with respect to 20cm. As described in FCC-TCB conference presentations at minimum in the past year, for device types like this operating with external antennas, where instructions and/or RF exposure compliance exhibits have not provided appropriate general and/or specific and/or example antenna and cabling descriptions, and typical or specific means to install and operate to maintain mobile device conditions, then pursuant to 2.1091(d)(4) filings need to address SAR compliance for portable device conditions and operations, i.e. using KDB pub 447498 or KDB pub 616217 methods. Please revise relevant portions of this filing as appropriate. Please refer to the revised integration guide. Section 1 covers general integration guidelines for portable and mobile conditions. Section 2 covers specific details of mobile and portable examples. 3. The integration guide has been updated to address the following statements: The install/operating instructions exhibit includes the text: "All instructions relating to the integration of the module described on the FCC Grant notes must be followed." This seems inconsistent with 2.909(a) grantee's compliance responsibility, i.e. install/operating instructions should be explicit about ALL device requirements, and must not rely on cross-reference to whatever are "FCC Grant notes." Please revise relevant portions of this filing as appropriate. See the response in number 2 for specific grant note details. Please refer to the revised integration guide. 4. The integration guide has been updated to address the following statements: The install/operating instructions exhibit includes the text: "Per §2.1091 of the FCC rules, embedded modules are defined as "mobile devices"" - this appears to be a misinterpretation of 2.1091 - in conjunction with the considerations of item 2) above, please revise relevant portions of this filing as appropriate. Please refer to the revised integration guide. A detailed response is available in section 2 of this communication. 5. The integration guide has been updated to address the following statements: To permit inevitable use in typical modern mullti- transmitter products and applications, if not in filing already please revise/amend to provide install/operating requirements to address KDB pub. 447498 D01 item 8) conditions. Other appropriate information must be provided to support compliance beyond a simple and basic bygone-era "must not be co-located" statement. Please refer to the revised integration guide. Section 1 covers general integration guidelines and collocation reference.. Section 3.0 of the revised installation guide details collocation and other radiating antenna information 6. MPE exhibit sec. 1.2 first and second lines seem mutually inconsistent, i.e. second line mentions device is only CDMA/EvDO and LTE capable - please revise relevant portions of this filing as appropriate. PCTEST Response: This typo was the result of an oversight on the part of PCTEST TCB. The test lab has corrected the typo. 7. MPE pg 5 shows 266 mW, but f-731 shows 233 mW => apparently there may be fundamental TCB Q/C issue; please adjust TCB processing procedures where appropriate Please revise relevant portions of this filing as appropriate…
