See Policy Branch Information, Satellite Space Applications Acceptedfor Filing, Public Notice, Report No. SAT—01169 (IBFS File No. SAT—PPL—20160512—00048). In order to facilitate recordkeeping, the Division is associating both applications with a single Call Sign, $2964. > For the Ka—band frequencies, SES Americom seeks waivers of Section 25.210(f) and Section 2.106, footnote NG165. SES Americom is not seeking operating authority for the Ka—band frequencies. Therefore, we will address the need for these rule waivers in connection with any future request for operating authority in the Ka—band frequencies. * Operations in these frequencies will be subject to the authority of the Gibraltar Regulatory Authority, consistent with the International Telecommunication Union filing submitted by the United Kingdom known as GIBSAT Al. See Annex A. Page 1 of 4

ATTACHMENT TO GRANT SES Americom, Inc. and SES Satellites (Gibraltar) Ltd. IBFS File Nos. SAT—LOA—20160512—00047 and SAT—PPL—20160512—00048 Operations under this grant must comport with the legal and technical specifications set forth by the applicant or petitioner and with Federal Communication Commission‘s rules not waived herein. This grant is also subject to the following conditions: 1. SES Americom must prepare the necessary information, as may be required, for submission to the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) to initiate and complete the advance publication, coordination, due diligence, and notification process of this space station, in accordance with the ITU Radio Regulations. SES Americom will be held responsible for all cost—recovery fees associated with ITU filings. No protection from interference caused by radio stations authorized by other administrations is guaranteed unless coordination and notification procedures are timely completed or, with respect to individual administrations, coordination agreements are successfully completed. Any radio station authorization for which coordination has not been completed may be subject to additional terms and conditions as required to effect coordination of the frequency assignments of other administrations. See 47 CFR § 25.111(b). In connection with the provision of service in any particular country, SES Americom is obliged to comply with the applicable laws, regulations, rules, and licensing procedures of that country. SES Americom must operate SES—11 at the 104.95° W.L. orbital location in compliance with all existing or future coordination agreements for this location. SES Americom must maintain the SES—11 space station within an east/west longitudinal station—keeping tolerance of + 0.05 degrees of the 104.95° W.L. orbital location. The Commission has exchanged letters with the Office of Communications of the United Kingdom (Ofcom) to ensure a mutual understanding regarding the operations of the SES—11 space station. The Commission‘s letter to Ofcom is attached to this grant.* The understandings and factual basis for those understandings are material considerations for this grant of authority. The operations of SES—11 and associated earth stations in the Ku—band must comport with the applicable uplink and downlink limits in 47 CFR § 25.140(a)(3) of the Commission‘s rules, unless SES Americom coordinates any non—conforming operations with the operations of U.S.—licensed geostationary orbit space stations within 6 degrees of the 104.95° W.L. orbital location. SES Americom must also comport with the maximum power limits indicated in its application. Non—conforming operation must also be coordinated with respect to those operations of non—U.S.—licensed space stations within 6 degrees of 104.95° W.L. involving approved communications with U.S.—licensed earth stations. Operation of SES—1 1 in the 14.47—14.5 GHz (Earth—to—space) frequency band is subject to the terms of footnotes 5.149 and US342 to the United States Table of Frequency Allocations, 47 CFR § 2.106, 5.149, US342, which urge applicants to take all practicable steps to protect the radio astronomy service from harmful interference. SES—11 must begin providing service at the 104.95° W.L. orbital location in the 11.7—12.2 GHz (space—to— Earth) and 14.0—14.5 GHz (Earth—to—space) frequency bands before the satellite it is replacing, AMC—15 (Call Sign $2180), discontinues service at the 105.05° W.L. orbital location." Failure to meet this condition will render this authorization to operate in these frequency bands NULL and VOID. * By communication of November 23, 2016, Ofcom confirmed its understanding of the informal arrangements described in the attached letter. 5 SES Americom also requests a waiver of Section 25.165(a), 47 CFR § 25.165(a), if the Satellite Division determines that SES—1 1 does not qualify as a replacement satellite pursuant to Section 25.165(e), which exempts replacement satellites from the bond payment requirement. See 47 CFR §25.165(e). Since SES—11 will operate in the same Ku—band frequencies as AMC—15, we consider SES—11 to be a replacement satellite pursuant to Section 25.165(e). Therefore, SES Americom is not Page 2 of 4

The license term for the space station is 15 years and will begin on the date that SES Americom certifies to the Commission that SES—11 has been successfully placed into orbit and its operations fully conform to the terms and conditions of this authorization. SES Americom must file its certification of commencement of operation with the Commission within five business days of SES—11 being placed into operation at the 104.95° W.L. orbital location. 10. SES Americom‘s request for waiver of Section 25.210(i)(1) of the Commission‘s rules, 47 CFR § 25.210(i)(1), is moot. This rule was eliminated as part of a recent Commission—level order streamlining Part 25 rules governing satellite communications. See Comprehensive Review ofLicensing and Operating Rulesfor Satellite Services, Second Report and Order, 30 FCC Red 14713, 14816—17, paras. 331—333 (2015) (Part 25 Review Second R&O). The following additional conditions apply to C—Band operations and the grant of file no. SAT—PPL— 20160512—00048: 11. The grant of U.S. market access in the C—band does not include provision of any Direct—to—Home service, Direct Broadcast Satellite service, or Digital Audio Service to, from, or within the United States. 12. Communications between U.S.—licensed earth stations and the SES—11 space station in the C—band must comply with all existing and future space station coordination agreements reached between the United Kingdom and other administrations. 13. The operations of SES—11 to and from the United States and associated earth stations in the C—band must comport with the applicable uplink and downlink limits in 47 CFR § 25.140(a)(3) of the Commission‘s rules, unless SES Gibraltar coordinates any non—conforming operations with the operations of U.S.— / licensed geostationary orbit space stations within 6 degrees of the 104.95° W.L. orbital location. SES Gibraltar must also comport with the maximum power limits indicated in its application. Non— conforming operation must also be coordinated with respect to those operations of non—U.S.—licensed space stations within 6 degrees of 104.95° W.L. involving approved communications with U.S.—licensed earth stations. 14. This grant of market access will terminate in the event that the SES—11 space station is relocated from the 104.95° W.L. orbital location or ceases to operate. In either case, SES—11 will be removed from the Permitted Space Station List. If SES Gibraltar seeks to provide service to the United States from the 104.95° W.L. orbital location using another space station or seeks to operate SES—11 from another orbital location, it must file a new petition for market access to have the station placed on the Permitted List. 15. SES—11 must begin providing service at the 104.95° W.L. orbital location in the 3700—4200 MHz (space— to—Earth) and 5925—6425 MHz (Earth—to—space) frequency bands before the satellite it is replacing, AMC— 18 (Call Sign $2713), discontinues service at the 104.95° W.L. orbital location. Failure to meet this condition will render this grant of market access in these frequency bands NULL and VOID. 16. SES Gibraltar‘s request for waiver of Section 25.210(i)(1) of the Commission‘s rules, 47 CFR § 25,210(i)(1), is moot. This rule was eliminated as part of a recent Commission—level order streamlining Part 25 rules governing satellite communications. Part 25 Review Second R&O, 30 FCC Red at 14816— required to pay a performance bond pursuant to Section 25.165(a). Similarly, we will not apply the bond requirement in Section 25.165(a) to SES—11‘s U.S. market access authority for the C—band because SES—11 will operate in the same C—band frequencies as the AMC—18 space station. In addition, with respect to the Ka—band frequencies, SES Americom is not seeking operational authority and no such authority is granted. Thus, waiver of Section 25.165(a) is unnecessary.

Federal Communications Commission Washington, D.C. 20554 October 18, 2016 Mario Nen Manager, International Satellite Frequency Coordination Office of Communications Riverside House 2A Southwack Bridge Road London, England SEL1 IHA Re: Operations of the SES—11 Satellite Dear Mr. Neri: This letter is to confirm the informal understanding of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the Office of Communications (Ofcom), on behalf of the Gibraltar Regulatory Authority (GRA), concerning the SES—1 1 satellite. The satellite is expected to be launched in the fourth quarter of 2016 and to operate at the 104.95° W.L. orbital location. SES—11 is capable of operating using the following frequencies: (1) the Ku—band frequencies at 11.7—12.2 GHz (space—to—Earth) and 14.0—14.5 GHz (Earth—to—space); (2) the C—band frequencies at 3700—4200 MHz (space—to—Earth) and 5925—6425 MHz (Earth—to—space); and (3) the Ka— band frequencies at 18.3—19.3 GHz (space—to—Earth), 19.7—20.2 GHz (space—to—Earth), 28.35—29.1 GHz (Earth—to—space) and 29.25—30.0 GHz (Earth—to—space). For telecommand, telemetry, and control operations, the satellite will use the 14.0005 GHz, 14.0035 GHz, 14.4975 GHz, and 14.4995 GHz (Earth— to—space), and 11.703 GHz and 12.1985 GHz (space—to—Earth), 3701.5 MHz and 4199.9 MHz (space—to— Earth), and 5926 MHz and 5927 MHz (Earth—to—space) center frequencies. The SES—11 satellite is intended to supplement and replace capabilities on two satellites operated by wholly—owned subsidiaries of SES Global, S.A. SES Americom, Inc. (SES Americom) will operate SES—11 to supplement and, eventually, replace the Ku—band capacity of the AMC—15 satellite, which currently operates at the 105.05° W.L. orbital location. SES Satellites (Gibraltar) Ltd. (SES Gibraltar) will operate SES—11 to replace the C—band capacity of the AMC—18 satellite, which currently operates at the 104.95° W.L. orbital location. In connection with the operation of SES—11, a satellite network filing has been submitted to the ITU by Ofcom (on behalf of the GRA). The name of this satellite network is GBSAT Al. It is my understanding that our agencies have concurred onthe following technical issues concerning the operation of the SES—11 satellite, contingent upon completion ofthe FCC licensing process: 1) At the 104.95° W.L. orbital location, operations of SES—11 in the C—band frequencies will be subject to the GRA‘s authority and such authority will allow the GRA to require SES Gibraltar to modify or cease operations in the C—band frequencies if deemed necessary. 2) At the 104.95° W.L. orbital location, operations of SES—11 in frequency bands other than the C—band frequencies will be subject solely to the authority of the FCC. Operations of SES—11 at any location other than 104.95° W.L., including operations in the C—band frequencies and any operations as a result of any equipment failure in the satellite that leads to inability to

maintain the satellite within +0.05° of its assigned 104.95° W.L. orbital location, will also be subject solely to the authority of the FCC. — 3) The FCC will retain the unilateral right in the event of extraordinary circumstances, to direct SES Americom to cease or modify operations of SES—11, or any portion of the satellite, without the need for consultation with or approval from Ofcom or the GRA, for example, to comply with a direction by the U.S. President under Section 706(c) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. § 606(c), or in the event of a satellite anomaly presenting an imminent danger, and SES Americom will be required to comply with any such direction. It is understood that, if operations of SES—11 are ceased or modified under this condition, the FCC will inform Ofcom, at the earliest possible opportunity, about the action taken by the _ FCC. 4) The FCC will consult with Ofcom if practicable, prior to any relocation of the satellite from the 104.95° W.L. orbital location, or as soon thereafter as possible. 5) SES Americom and the FCC will be responsible for taking action necessary for compliance with the ITU Radio Regulations (in particular the coordination and notification procedures) for SES—11 at the 104.95° W.L. orbital location, except as noted in number 6 below. 6) SES Gibraltar, Ofcom, and the GRA will be responsible for taking action necessary for compliance with the ITU Radio Regulations (in particular the coordination and notification procedures) for SES—11 at the 104.95° W.L. orbital location in the C—band frequencies. 7) With respect to Paragraph 3.2 of the Minutes of the 13" Plenary Meeting of WRC—12 (as set out in ITU Circular Letter CR/333), the FCC will not object to Ofcom notifying the ITU of bringing into use the C—band frequencies of the GIBSAT Al1 network based upon the operations of SES—11. In addition, it is my understanding that the U.S. State Department will register the satellite with the Secretary General of the United Nations, pursuant to the 1976 U.N. Convention on Registration of Objects Launched into Outer Space. Any notices, inquiries, and correspondence from Ofcom concerning these matters should be directed to the Chief, Satellite Division, International Bureau, at Jose.Albuquerque@fee.gov with a copy to Karl.Kensinger@fee.gov, on the part of the FCC. The FCC will direct any notices, inquiries, and correspondence from the FCC concerning these matters to the Manager of the International Satellite Frequency Coordination team at ife.enquiries@ofcom.org.uk, on the part of Ofcom. If the foregoing corresponds to your understanding of the informal arrangements between our agencies concerning SES—11, please confirm by return letter. Thank you. Sincerely, Sow ALM@whoul Jose P. Albuquerqule Chief, Satellite Division International Bureau
