LightSquared‘s entry into the wireless broadband market comes at a time when the spectrum crisis threatens to stifle innovation and the largest wireless providers have failed to offer truly open networks that encourage new applications and services. LightSquared is the first wholesale—only nationwide 4G—LTE network complemented by satellite coverage. The company will create new jobs and new opportunities for innovation across a range of industries, including retailers, wireless providers, cable operators, device makers, content providers, and others. I hope that the Commission welcomes LightSquared by approving their application since it will greatly benefit our communities, our economy, and our citizens. Respectfully submitted, Charity A.

Before the FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION Washington, D.C. 20554 In the matter of: LightSquared Subsidiary LLC Requestfor Modification ofIts Authorityfor an Ancillary Terrestrial Component To: The Federal Communications Commission Re: FCC File Number: SAT—MOD—20101118—00239 I ask that the FCC quickly approve LightSquared‘s desired modification of its authority for an Ancillary Terrestrial Component. Fast—tracking LightSquared‘s request will allow badly needed wireless capacity to enter into the market as soon as possible, which will increase productivity of businesses and reduce prices for consumers, not to mention create much needed jobs. LightSquared‘s low rates will also expand wireless access to other customer bases previously priced out of the expensive technology, allowing more Americans to enjoy the benefits offered by broadband. With President Obama and Chairman Genachowski promoting policies that will make broadband universal, LightSquared complements and supports these important goals. I hope the Commission will support consumerchoice by endorsing LightSquared‘s request. Respecifully submitted, Craig Stevens 2809 Radiant Flame Avenue Henderson, NV 89052 December 8, 2010

That‘s why I ask you to approve LightSquared‘s application for a modification of its authority for an Ancillary Terrestrial Component. LightSquared has a wholesale—only business model that will expand the availability of broadband spectrum, benefiting both consumers and small wireless service providers. It will complement existing capacity and allow more players to enter the market without the enormous capital needed to build a network starting over from the beginning. LightSquared‘s 4G—LTE network, with satellite backup, will provide Las Vegas with seamless access to cutting—edge wireless technology. This is especially important to first responders in case of a natural disaster or terrorist attack. I hope you‘ll please consider these important points when evaluating LightSquared‘s request. Thank you. Respectfully submitted, Melissa Mathis 1820 Tremolite Avenue Las Vegas, NV 89123 December 8, 2010

SAT—MOD—20101118—00239 and SES—AMD—20101118—01452 I urge you to fast—track approval of LightSquared‘s request for a modification of its authority for an Ancillary Terrestrial Component. LightSquared‘s unique business model will benefit our area in a number of ways. Its low cost broadband infrastructure will reach a new class of consumers previously priced out of the market, spreading the benefits offered by blazing internet speeds to a greater proportion of Las Vegas‘ residents. LightSquared‘s satellite back—up will offer digital security for the city, ensuring communication when it‘s need most, such as during large gatherings that would swamp traditional networks and natural disasters that would damage them. Most important, LightSquared will offer Las Vegas consumers a greatly expanded variety of options in the mobile market, fostering both innovation and competition to the benefit of anyone using mobile technology.

Just as Chairman Genachowski has made clear, we are facing a spectrum crisis that puts at risk many American‘s hopes for new wireless applications that can change the way they work, do business, raise their families, educate their children, and keep our communities safe. LightSquared is ready now to put the spectrum it owns to work by delivering an open network to wholesale customers who will then be free to create and offer the next generation of innovative wireless services. LightSquared has a goal of achieving wireless broadband connectivity that is a free market solution to complement the administration‘s goal to bring high—speed internet throughout the country, as well as the Chairman‘s goal of alleviating the spectrum crisis. This ultimately means more economic opportunity for Americans. For these reasons, I hope you will look favorably on LightSquared‘s request.

That is why I strongly urge the approval of its request for modification for an "Ancillary Terrestrial Component." As the FCC has pointed out, LightSquared‘s 4G—LTE network will empower cellular providers and others to compete head—to—head with the big mobile telecom companies that have failed to innovate and invest to keep up with growing data demands. LightSquared‘s network will deliver more choices and lower prices for consumers, leading to more jobs for Americans who need them. Too many Americans currently lack broadband connectivity, mainly due to its cost. Greater competition and more affordable service will bring us closer to achieving universal broadband access in America. 1 believe the Commission strongly supports these goals, which is why I feel their application should be supported.

mspected rgceived & are 16 2010 LooM FCC Man £ Before the FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION Washington, D.C. 20554 In the matter of: LightSquared Subsidiary LLC Requestfor Modification ofIts Authorityfor an Ancillary Terrestrial Component To: The Federal Communications Commission Re: FCC File Number: SAT—MOD—20101118—00239 LightSquared‘s request for a modification of its Ancillary Terrestrial Component needs to be approved to make more spectrum space available and create more competition in a stagnant wireless broadband market. As those who rely on mobile broadband devices can attest, the networks currently available to consumers are failing to keep up with the high demand. The explosion of both smartphone sales and streaming video opened the floodgates, but our infrastructure lags behind and remains unprepared. America needs not only more broadband capacity, but also more affordable service. LightSquared offers the perfect solution. Their business model is a cutting—edge 4G—LTE speed network leased to a variety of businesses, allowing an entirely new group of companies to enter a wireless broadband market that has been dominated by a few large players. These new entrants increase competition and thereby foster innovation and lower prices. Increased broadband capacity isn‘t just an issue of convenience; it‘s essential to continued economic growth, new jobs, and reducing the inequality between those currently connected and those who have been left behind. For these reasons, I sincerely hope you will not only consider but also approve LightSquared‘s request.

LightSquared is a revolutionary company that will bring much needed changes to the wireless industry. Its business model relies on a wholesale—only principle, which will greatly expand the number of companies that can compete for customers in the wireless marketplace. This not only fosters innovation but is an immense benefit to consumers by expanding their options. Competition will help drive down costs. It expands the wireless market giving access to groups currently closed out of it an opportunity to join and experience the benefits of broadband. This makes wireless broadband democratic by putting underprivileged groups on more equal footing with advantaged members of society. In order to continue expanding the promises of broadband and reach a greater number of Las Vegas‘ residents, LightSquared‘s request for modification of its authority for an Ancillary Terrestrial Component should be approved.

A speedy approval of this application will help bring broadband services to Americans who have been left behind by other providers and create jobs at a time when we desperately need them. Building a 4G—LTE network and leasing its use to small and regional wireless companies that cannot afford the capital investments needed to build next—generation wireless infrastructure, will create new competition in broadband and wireless broadband that can only bring lower prices and new services. LightSquared‘s plan to offer terrestrial and satellite services is also a boon for rural and small town America, which national carriers seem to have forgotten. Connecting these communities is essential to improving their economic health and achieving the administration‘s goal of making broadband service universal. Please keep these points, and the need for meaningful job creation, in mind as you review LightSquared‘s proposal. Respectively, Rebecca Maxie 4389 De Forest Street Las Vegas, NV 89103

LightSquared offers a unique business model that will benefit both consumers and tech industry startups that are looking to test new business practices without being forced to spend the billions of dollars required to build their own nationwide network. LightSquared‘s satellite service will become a vital component of a national wireless network, providing a permanent and complementing, country—wide emergency back—up for our ground—based technology. LightSquared‘s new product will provide a shot in the arm for the mobile broadband market, opening up space for new service providers and adding some much—needed competition.

It is counter—productive to stand in the way of technological progress. Soon 4G—LTE speed will be the new global standard for wireless Internet. Because of its wholesale—only business model, LightSquared will allow many more niche players into the market, providing numerous competing options available to the average consumer and supporting a burst of innovation in the wireless sector. LightSquared‘s satellite service will also fill in the large gaps in our nation‘s wireless coverage. This is a great benefit to rural America. It will also aid emergency workers with a stable communications system that can withstand a crisis, such as Hurricane Katrina. I hope that you take these factors into account as you review LightSquared‘s proposal. Respectfully submitted, Richard Ponce 3188 Burnham Ave Las Vegas, NV 89169 December 7, 2010

I believe LightSquared will serve Las Vegas as more than just another company entering into the wireless market. With its satellite technology, LightSquared is primed to provide an important second line for wireless devices, and will be able to offer broadband coverage to an entire region rather than select spaces clustered around cell towers. This service is vital for emergency personnel and will pay back dividends not only in economic development, but also in lives saved through a reliable communications network. The second line of satellite technology will also hold up against Katrina—style chaos following in the wake of a potential regional disaster. In order to establish this safety net for emergencies both large and small, I am urging you to approve LightSquared‘s application.

The FCC therefore needs to do more to support companies bringing spectrum channels online to consumers. With this in mind, I hope that you will approve the request from LightSquared to modify its authority for an Ancillary Terrestrial Component. LightSquared will not only ease our nation‘s wireless information overload , but its unique business model will open up the market for a host of exciting new companies, allowing them to reach more consumers. Previously, the high cost of constructing a nationwide network stood in the way of reaching a broader audience. This influx of competition will enable both established corporations and startups equal access to some of the highest—quality spectrum on the market, acting as a boon to both businesses and consumers. In order to aid competition in an increasingly vital sector of our economy, | am urging the FCC to support LightSquared.
