See Stamp Grant, SAT-LOA-20070622-00085 (granted Jan. 1 1,2008).’ EchoStar is aware that as a result of the actions taken at the 1998 Plenipotentiary Conference, processing fees will now be charged by the International Telecommunication Union (“ITU”) for satellite network filings.

EchoStar hereby states that it is aware of and unconditionally accepts this requirement and its responsibility to pay any ITU cost recovery fees associated with the aforementioned ITU filing in a timely manner. In addition, all correspondence with EchoStar regarding ITU cost recovery issues should be directed to the undersigned. Effective December 3 1, 2007, EchoStar Satellite Operating Corporation was converted into a Colorado limited liability company and renamed EchoStar Satellite Operating L.L.C. Under Colorado law, “[tlhe resulting entity is the same entity as the converting entity.” See Colo. Rev. Stat. 7-90-202(4).
