For the hyperbola $H : x^{2} - y^{2} = 1$ and the ellipse $E : \frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}} + \frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}} = 1$ where $a > b > 0$,let $(1)$ the eccentricity of $E$ be the reciprocal of the eccentricity of $H$,and $(2)$ the line $y = \sqrt{\frac{5}{2}} x + K$ be a common tangent of $E$ and $H$. Then $4(a^{2} + b^{2})$ is equal to:
