          EchoStar Satellite Operating L.L.C.‘s request, File No. SAT—STA—20090312—00035, is
GRANTED. Accordingly, EchoStar Satellite Operating L.L.C. (EchoStar) is authorized, for a
period of 60 days commencing on March 16, 2009, to conduct Telemetry, Tracking, and
Command (TT&C) operations with the EchoStar 5 satellite to effect the drift of the EchoStar 5
satellite from the 129° W.L. orbital location to the 148° W.L. orbital location. During the drift
from 129° W.L. to 148° W.L., EchoStar is authorized to use the 17301.0 MHz frequency for
telecommand, and the 12201—12202 MHz frequencies for telemetry. This authorization shall be in
accordance with the technical specifications set forth in EchoStar‘s application, the Commission‘s
rules, and is subject to the following conditions:

         1. All operations during the drift shall be on an unprotected and non—harmful
interference basis, i.e., EchoStar shall not cause harmful interference to, and shall not claim
protection from, interference caused to it by any other lawfully operating radiocommunication
station.

        2. In the event of any harmful interference during EchoStar 5s drift to the 148° W.L.,
EchoStar shall cease operations immediately upon notification of such interference and EchoStar
shall inform the Commission in writing within three days of such an event.

        3. During the drift to, and while located at the 148° W.L. orbital location, EchoStar may
not operate EchoStar 5‘s communications payload.

       4. Any action taken or expense incurred as a result of operations pursuant to this special
temporary authority is solely at EchoStar‘s own risk

         5. 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
under Section 1.106 or applications for review under Section 1.115 of the Commission‘s rules, 47
C.F.R. §§ 1.106, 1.115, may be filed within 30 days of the date of the public notice indicating that
this action was taken.
