Exhibit 3 FCC Form 312 August 2014 Non-Compliant Antenna Waiver Request Response to Form 312, Schedule B, Question E15 Re: 1.0 Meter Earth Station Fixed Satellite Service Ku-Band 14,000 – 14,500 MHz This antenna is a Norsat International 1.0 meter antenna and it does not strictly comply with 25.209 of the FCC Rules and Regulations. In the Part 25 Earth Station Fifth Report and Order, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) adopted streamlined procedures for reviewing non-routine earth station license applications. As part of that Report and Order, the Commission directed the International Bureau to create a list of approved non-routine earth station antennas to be posted on the Commission's website. The Commission concluded that a website listing approved non-routine antennas, including antenna gain patterns and the conditions placed on the use of each antenna, would help applicants in preparing applications for non-routine earth station licenses and expedite review of these applications. Earth station applicants proposing to use an antenna that is on this list will no longer need to attach antenna radiation plots as an exhibit to their applications, as required by Section 25.132(b)(3) of the Commission's rules. They need only provide an attachment to their applications citing the particular non-routine earth station antenna they plan to use, and an application file number and call sign of a license in which that type of non-routine antenna has been approved. The application file number and call sign, SES-LIC-20060119-00068 and E060015 of a previously licensed Norsat International 1.0 meter earth station, indicates that the 1.0 meter antenna proposed in this application will operate without conflict. The licensee of Call Sign E060015 has also licensed their antenna for temporary operations, and has limited their RF transmit power density to -19.3 dBW/4 kHz (EIRP Density of 22.7 dBW/4 kHz). The maximum input spectral power density into the antenna for the proposed 1.0 meter Norsat International antenna in this application will not exceed –21.4 dBW/4 kHz (EIRP Density of 20.6 dBW/4 kHz). Per §25.115(h)(4) the earth station applicant certifies that it will limit its pointing error to 0.5°. Summary: The application file number (SES-MOD-20060119-00068) and call sign (E060015) of a previously licensed Norsat 1.0 meter earth station, indicates that the 1.0 meter antenna proposed in this application will operate without conflict. The power density restrictions specified by the FCC for small diameter antennas utilizing digital traffic at Ku-Band is -14.0 dBW/4 kHz. This antenna will operate at a maximum transmit power density of –21.4 dBW/4 kHz. If the use of this antenna should cause interference to other systems, the applicant will terminate such transmissions immediately upon notice from the FCC or offended parties.
