On June 24, 2011, the Satellite Division granted, with conditions, the request of Hughes Networks systems, LLC for access to the market in the
United States using a planned Ka-band geostationary satellite orbit Fixed-Satellite Service space station, SPACEWAY 5, that will operate under
the authority of the United Kingdom at the 109.1º W.L. orbital location. Accordingly, the SPACEWAY 5 space station is declared eligible for
use with appropriately licensed U.S. earth stations to provide FSS from the 109.1º W.L. orbital location using the 28.35-29.1 GHz and 29.25-30.0
GHz frequency bands (Earth-to-space) and the 18.3-19.3 GHz and 19.7-20.2 GHz frequency bands (space-to-Earth) once Hughes completes
coordination with Federal satellite systems operating in the downlink band and submits a copy of the U.K. space operations authorization in the
public record in this proceeding.
