Dear Ms. Dortch:

EchoStar Satellite Operating Corporation ("EchoStar") submits this letter summarizing a meeting
on July 29, 2014 regarding the above—referenced modification and special temporary
authorization ("STA") renewal applications to operate the EchoStar 6 satellite at 96.2° W.L. and
to extend the satellite license term. Present at the meeting were, Jennifer Gilsenan, José
Albuquerque, Karl Kensinger and Troy Tanner of the International Bureau; and the undersigned.

At the meeting, EchoStar urged the Commission to put an end to Spectrum Five LLC‘s
("Spectrum Five") frivolous filings by expeditiously granting EchoStar‘s license modification
and STA renewal applications, and rejecting Spectrum Five‘s claims against the applications,
consistent with the recent court decision dismissing Spectrum Five‘s similar claims against the
initial STA grant for lack of standing.

Please direct any questions regarding this matter to the undersigned.

Sincerely,

/s/ Jennifer A. Manner
Jennifer A. Manner
Vice President of Regulatory Affairs
