FCC Form 312 Response to Questions 43 (Main Form) & A21 (Schedule A) Page 1 of 2 EXHIBIT F Description of Application and Public Interest Statement Pursuant to Section 25.119 of the Commission’s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 25.119, TerreStar Networks Inc. (“TerreStar”) seeks Commission consent to the pro forma assignment of its earth station licenses and 2 GHz mobile satellite service (“MSS”) spectrum reservation authorization to TerreStar Networks Inc., Debtor-in-Possession (“TerreStar DIP”) and to the pro forma transfer of control of TerreStar.1 On October 19, 2010, as part of a strategic plan to strengthen their financial position and achieve long-term success in the mobile satellite service market, TerreStar and certain affiliates identified in Attachment 1A, including its intermediate holding companies,2 filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (“Bankruptcy Court”).3 The Chapter 11 filings resulted in both the pro forma assignment of TerreStar’s earth station licenses and 2 GHz MSS authorization to TerreStar DIP, and in the pro forma transfer of control of TerreStar by virtue of its intermediate holding companies’ Chapter 11 petitions. The restructuring process will allow TerreStar DIP to enhance its financial position and maximize the value of its capabilities and assets. TerreStar DIP expects to continue to operate in 1 TerreStar also has pending before the Commission an application for modification of its 2 GHz mobile earth terminal blanket license (FCC File No. SES-MOD-20100727-00963), and seeks Commission consent to the pro forma assignment of that pending application to TerreStar DIP, and consent to the pro forma transfer of control of that applicant. 2 TerreStar Corporation, TerreStar’s ultimate parent company, did not file a petition for reorganization. 3 See In re TerreStar Networks, Inc., Case No. 10-15446(SHL)(SDNY Oct. 19, 2010). On October 20, 2010, the Bankruptcy Court granted the request of TerreStar and its debtor-affiliates for procedural consolidation and joint administration of the Chapter 11 petitions.
