                                     Certification Of Hughes Network Systems, Inc.



                Pursuant to Section 25.161(a) of the Rules of the Federal Communications
Commission and pursuant to paragraph 25 of Hughes Communications Galaxy, Inc., DA 01—226
(released January 31, 2001), Hughes Network Systems, Inc. (HNS) provides this certification
regarding the commencement of construction of the remaining satellites in its Spaceway GSO FSS
satellite system.

                HNS has previously reported in its Annual Status Reports and other filings to the
Commission that a spacecraft construction contract for Spaceway has been signed and is now being
fulfilled by Boeing Satellite Systems (BSS). As previously reported, actual construction of these
spacecraft is underway.

                  On January 22, 2003, HNS submitted a request that the Commission determine that
HNS has met the upcoming January 31, 2003 and August 31, 2003 interim milestones under its
Spaceway Ka—band licenses. In the alternative, HNS requested that the Commission extend those
interim milestones for a period of two years or waive them. HNS respectfully refers the
Commission to its pending January 22 submission in which HNS states that it has complied with the
interim milestones by commencing construction of the remaining licensed satellites in the
Spaceway GSO FSS system.


                                                                          stems, Inc.
