- The Middle East PTT Device Plan is available for use when at least one Talkgroup on the handset falls wholly or partially within the locations that comprise the Middle East Region.

Iridium reserves the right to immediately, and without notice, deactivate any Talkgroups found to be wholly or partially within the Middle East Region that have not been activated on the Middle East PTT Talkgroup.
- Talkgroup Pricing is based completely upon coverage area (measured in square kilometers) and unlimited Talkgroup usage. Each Talkgroup activated will be charged a monthly fee.
- Adding a member to a Talkgroup will not incur any additional Talkgroup charges. A Talkgroup may contain an unlimited number of Handsets.
- Each Push-To-Talk Handset will be charged a single monthly fee. Adding a Talkgroup to a Handset will not incur any additional Handset charges. Each Handset can have a maximum of 15 Talkgroups assigned to it.
- Activating a Handset for Push-to-Talk service provides the user with access to Push-To-Talk service. It will not provide the user with access to normal Iridium Voice or Data services. Access to normal Iridium Voice or Data services are available via separate normal Iridium Postpaid / Prepaid SIM Card activation and will incur additional charges. To clarify, activation of a Handset for Push-To-Talk services will solely provide the terminal with access to any Talkgroups that have been assigned to the Handset. It will not enable normal Iridium Voice to Fixed / Cellular services.
- The Unlimited "Included Talkgroup Usage" only includes usage of the PTT Talkgroup service. Normal Iridium Voice services will not be included, and will be invoiced based upon the separate normal Iridium Postpaid / Prepaid package selected.
- Talkgroup coverage area will be defined with the PTT Command Center through the placement of circles, squares and rectangles on a map or by using specific latitude / longitude coordinates in a list view.
- Talkgroup size limits are related to the total area covered by the Talkgroup. The Talkgroup's coverage area can go up to, but not exceed, the size limitation set on the Talkgroup.
- Each Talkgroup's coverage may be split into up to 10 different coverage regions. For the Small Talkgroup, due to minimum "region" sizes in the PTT Command Center, the coverage area may only be split into up to 5 different coverage regions. There are no restrictions on where the coverage may be placed on the earth.
- If initial Talkgroup size does not meet the customer's needs, upgrades and downgrades to Talkgroup size are available. More than 2 changes to Talkgroup size per year may incur additional administrative charges.
- To participate in a Talkgroup session, a device must be located within the coverage area of the Talkgroup, provisioned as a member of the Talkgroup via the PTT Command Center, updated with the provisioning of the Talkgroup, and have active service (not suspended or disabled).
- A Handset's access to Talkgroups can be disabled via the PTT Command Center. This will only disable access to the Talkgroups. The Handset's standard monthly fee will continue to be charged.
- In order to provide high-quality service to subscribers, Iridium will monitor the allocation of Talkgroups to ensure no customer unnecessarily congests the network. Iridium intends to provide these talkgroups under a fair use and reasonable allocation of talkgroups per PTT subscriber.
