Rockwell Collins Satellite Communications Systems, Inc. Form 312 Exhibit F Page 1 of 2 Background and Public Interest Statement SWE-DISH Satellite Systems, Inc. (“SWE-DISH”)was a manufacturer of ground stations with primary reflectors that range in size from approximately 0.5 to 9.0 meters in diameter. SWE-DISH designs and manufactures antennas that operate in the conventional C-band and Ku- band, as well as the X-band, Ka-band, and Direct Broadcast bands. Rockwell Collins Satellite Communications Systems, Inc. (“RCSCS”), formerly DataPath, Inc. (“Datapath”), is a leading provider of satellite communications networks. RCSCS designs, engineers, integrates, and produces earth stations and earth terminals that transmit information via orbiting satellite, forming satellite communications networks that connect multiple users anywhere in the world. RCSCS also provides engineering staff to install, operate, and maintain these networks, as well as software to optimize network performances. RCSCS sells its products and services in the market for command, control, communications, computation, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance purposes. On July 2, 2009, Rockwell Collins, Inc. (“Rockwell Collins”) acquired DataPath along with DataPath’s wholly owned subsidiary, SWE-DISH Satellite Systems AB (“SWE-DISH AB”) and SWE-DISH AB’s wholly owned subsidiary, SWE-DISH. DataPath then changed its name to Rockwell Collins Satellite Communications Systems, Inc. (“RCSCS”) and SWE-DISH AB changed its name to Rockwell Collins Sweden AB. Rockwell Collins Sweden AB and SWE- DISH remained wholly owned subsidiaries of RSCSC. On January 22, 2010, Rockwell Collins Sweden AB sold its shares of SWE-DISH to RCSCS. On January 25, 2010, SWE-DISH then merged into RCSCS, with RCSCS surviving.

Rockwell Collins Satellite Communications Systems, Inc. Form 312 Exhibit F Page 2 of 2 As a result of those transactions, the satellite earth station authorizations held by SWE-DISH were assigned to RCSCS. SWE-DISH and RCSCS respectfully submit that this transaction serves the public interest, convenience, and necessity by consolidating manufacturing and operation/management of earth stations in a single entity.
