DIRECTV Enterprises, LLC‘s (DIRECTYV‘s) request for authority to construct, launch, and operate a
17/24 GHz Broadcasting—Satellite Service (BSS) space station, DIRECTV RB—1, at the 99.175° W.L.
orbital location, which is offset 0.175° from the 99° W.L. location specified in Appendix F to the 17/24
GHz BSS Report and Order, FCC 07—76, 22 FCC Red 8842 (rel. May 4, 2007), IS GRANTED.!
Accordingly, DIRECTV is authorized to operate its 17/24 GHz BSS space station, DIRECTV RB—1, at
the 99.175° W.L. orbital location using the 17.3—17.7 GHz (space—to—Earth) and the 24.75—25.15 GHz
(Earth—to—space) frequency bands, at a reduced power and without full interference protection, in
accordance with the terms and conditions contained in its application, the Federal Communication
Commission‘s (Commission‘s) rules and the conditions of this attachment.


     1.      DIRECTV may operate its DIRECTV RB—1 space station at the 99.175° W.L. orbital
             location, up to power flux density (PFD) levels that are reduced from those specified in 47
             C.FR §25.208(w) in accordance with the following calculation methodology: For a given
             location on the surface of the Earth at which the required PFD reduction value needs to be
             determined, calculate the topocentric angular separation ‘q" of the 99° W.L. and 103° W.L.
             geostationary orbital locations, and the corresponding off—axis gain Geoi(@) of the antenna
             specified in Section 25.224(a)(1) at that angular separation. For the same location on the
             surface of the Earth, also calculate the topocentric angular separation of the 99.175° W.L. and
             103° W.L. geostationary orbital locations, and the gain of the antenna ‘Geoz(@)‘ specified in
             Section 25.224(a)(1) at that angular separation. Then, perform the subtraction Geor(@) —
             Gceoi(@). The result is the required reduction in the PFD from the value specified in Section
             25.208(w).2 DIRECTV RB—1‘s space station transmissions shall meet the reduced PFD
             limits under all atmospheric conditions. The PFD levels of DIRECTV RB—1‘s transmissions
             shall not exceed the maximum PFD levels stated in its application.
    2.       DIRECTV shall maintain its 17/24 GHz BSS space station within an east/west longitudinal
             station—keeping tolerance of + 0.05 degrees of the assigned 99.175° W.L. orbital location.

    3.        DIRECTV, when designing its system, is reminded to take into consideration the geographic
              service requirements of Section 25.225 of the Commission‘s rules. 47 C.F.R. § 25.225.

    4.        Division ofSpectrum at the 99° W.L. Appendix F Orbital Location.® Grant of this application
              is subject to the provisions regarding division of spectrum contained in Section 25.158(d) of
              the Commission‘s rules. Accordingly, in the event that applications relating to call sign
              $2660 at the 99° W.L. Appendix F orbital location are also granted, the available bandwidth
              at the orbital location will be divided among the licensees at this location. The following
              procedures apply to the selection of spectrum by DIRECTV:

              a.   Ensuring Contiguous Bandwidth Selections. Section 25.158(d)(6) requires that the each
                   licensee‘s bandwidth selection shall not preclude other licensees from selecting
                   contiguous bandwidth. To implement this requirement in the selection of bandwidth at
                   this location, operations for telemetry, tracking, and telecommand (TT&C), service—link,
                   and feeder—link band will be as follows:

                        i. Downlink Transmissions. Telemetry and beacon transmissions in the space—to—
                             Earth direction may be conducted in an 11—megahertz band segment at 17.300—
                             17.311 GHz, and/or a 11—megahertz band segment at 17.689—17.700 GHz. The
                             remaining portions of the 17.3—17.7 GHz band may be used by DIRECTV for
                             service links in the space—to—Earth direction.

                       i1.   Uplink Transmissions. Telecommand transmissions in the Earth—to—space
                             direction may be conducted in an 11—megahertz band segment at 24.750—24.761
                             GHz, and an 11—megahertz band segment at 25.139—25.150 GHz. On our own
                             motion, we grant a limited waiver of § 25.202(g) of the Commission‘s rules, 47
                             C.ER. § 25.202(g), to permit TT&C operations in the 25.139—25.150 GHz band
                             segment. Section 25.202(g) requires that "telemetry, tracking and telecommand
                             functions for U.S. domestic satellites shall be conducted at either or both edges of
                             the allocated band(s)." The allocated uplink band for this service is the 24.75—
                             25.25 GHz uplink band segment. The 25.139—25.150 GHz uplink band segment
                             is a necessary counterpart to the 17.689—17.700 GHz downlink band segment.
                             We grant this limited waiver to allow productive use of the 25.139—25.150 GHz
                             uplink band segment that would otherwise be unused. This waiver only applies
                             to use of the 25.139—25.150 GHz uplink band segment at the 99° W.L. Appendix
                             F orbital location. The remaining portions of the 24.75—25.15 GHz band may be
                             used by DIRECTV for feeder links in the Earth—to—space direction.

              b.   Selection Process. DIRECTV will be allowed to select the particular band segments it
                   wishes to use (its "Selected Assignments") no earlier than 60 days before it plans to
                   launch its satellite, and no later than 30 days before that date, by submitting a letter to the
                   Secretary of the Commission. DIRECTV shall serve copies of this letter to the other
                   17/24 GHz BSS Licensees at the 99° W.L. Appendix F orbital location, pursuant to
                   Section 1.47 of the Commission‘s rules.

                        i. Selection ofDownlink TT&C. DIRECTV may make up to two telemetry and/or
                           beacon downlink frequency channel selections in the 17.3—17.7 GHz TT&C band


* For purposes of this condition, the 99° W.L. Appendix F orbital location means the precise 99° W.L. geostationary
orbital location and other geostationary orbital locations offset from the 99° W.L. orbital location.


             segments with a bandwidth of one megahertz each: one in the 17.300—17.311
             GHz TT&C band segment, and one in the 17.689—17.700 GHz TT&C band
             segment.

         ii. Selection of Uplink TT&C. In the 24.75—25.15 GHz TT&C band segments,
             DIRECTV may make up to two telecommand uplink frequency channel
             assignment selections with a bandwidth of one megahertz each: one in the
             24.750—24.761 GHz TT&C band segment, and one in the 25.139—25.150 GHz
             TT&C band segment.

        ii1. Selection ofSpectrum within the 17.3—17.7 GHz bandfor Service—Link
             Operations and within the 24.75—25.15 GHz bandfor Feeder—Link Operations.
             In the 17.3—17.7 GHz band segment, the Selected Assignment shall give
             DIRECTV access to 1/m of the quantity of spectrum in the band segment, for
             transmission on a primary basis, where "m" is the number of 17/24 GHz BSS
             Licensees authorized to provide service in the band segment at the 99° W.L.
             Appendix F orbital location at the time the Selected Assignment is chosen. In the
             17.3—17.7 GHz band segment, the Selected Assignment shall be chosen such that
             the lower band edge of the assignment is an integer multiple of 378/m megahertz
             from the band edge of the lower TT&C band segment, at 17.3 11 GHz, and the
             upper band edge of the assignment is 378/m megahertz above the lower band
             edge of the assignment. The edges of the corresponding feeder—link Selected
             Assignment shall be 7450 MHz above the lower and upper band edges of the
             service—link Selected Assignment.

c.   Operations Within and Outside of the Selected Assignments. DIRECTV shall operate on
     a primary basis relative to the other 17/24 GHz BSS Licensee within its Selected
     Assignments. DIRECTV may also operate in other portions of the 17.3—17.7 GHz, and
     24.75—25.15 GHz frequency bands outside its own Selected Assignments on a secondary
     basis with respect to operations of the other 17/24 GHz BSS Licensee in its respective
     Selected Assignments. Each 17/24 GHz BSS Licensee at the 99° W.L. Appendix F
     orbital location that launches a satellite to that location shall serve a Notice of Successful
     Launch, by letter to the Chief, Satellite Division, International Bureau, Federal
     Communications Commission. Copies of the letter shall be served on the other 17/24
     GHz BSS Licensee at the 99° W.L. Appendix F orbital location, pursuant to Section 1.47
     of the Commission‘s rules. Within one week of receiving written notice of a successful
     launch, any 17/24 GHz BSS Licensee operating at the 99° W.L. Appendix F orbital
     location within the Selected Assignments of the newly launched satellite will be required
     to cease operations on such selected assignments.

DIRECTV‘s authorization for a 17/24 GHz BSS space station at the 99.175° W.L. orbital
location will be null and void with no further action on the Commission‘s part if the space
station is not constructed, launched, and placed into operation in accordance with the
technical parameters and terms and conditions of this authorization by these specified time
periods following the date of authorization:

a.   Execute a binding contract for construction within one year (July 2_9, 2010);

    10.         The license term for this 17/24 GHz BSS space station, Call Sign $2711, is 15 years, and will
                begin to run on the date that DIRECTV certifies to the Commission that the satellite has been
                successfully placed into orbit and its operation fully conforms to the terms and conditions of
                this authorization. 47 C.F.R. § 25.121(a). DIRECTV shall file this certification with the
                Chief, Satellite Division, International Bureau, Federal Communications Commission within
                ten business days of the space station being put into operation.

* in its comments, SES requests that certain conditions relating to ITU procedures be included in each 17/24 GHz
BSS authorization. Most of the conditions sought by SES are included in condition No. 9 of this grant, which is a
standard condition on space station authorizations. SES, however, also seeks to impose a customer notification
requirement. We see no reason to impose such a condition on this authorization at this time.


      information current as of May 31 of that year pursuant to Section 25.210(1) of the
      Commission‘s rules. 47 C.F.R. § 25.210(1).

12.   DIRECTV is afforded 30 days from the date of release of this grant and authorization to
      decline this authorization as conditioned. Failure to respond within this period will constitute
      formal acceptance of the authorization as conditioned.

13.   This action is issued pursuant to Section 0.261 of the Commission‘s rules on delegated
      authority, 47 C.F.R. § 0.261, and is effective immediately. Petitions for reconsideration
