LYNGBY, Denmark - Lars Thrane, the founder of Danish satellite communications
company Thrane & Thrane A/S, has announced his decision to leave the business -
now called Cobham SATCOM after its recent acquisition by Cobham plc and
combination with Cobham's other satellite communications companies. 

The following statement is attributable to Mr. Walther Thygesen, the vice
president of Cobham SATCOM: 

'Lars has informed the Board that he will leave at the end of November. We
respect his decision to leave the business, and we wish him all the very best
for the future. We're very appreciative of the support he has given us
throughout this initial, critical period of the integration process, which is
progressing well. He has built a great company, which we intend to grow further
under Cobham's ownership and the leadership of the Denmark-based management
team.'
