                                                    HNS License Sub, LLC Application Exhibit E



                                    Response to Question 36

         On July 26, 2011, the FCC declared null and void an authorization of EchoStar
Corporation, the parent company of HNS License Sub, LLC (together with their affiliates,
“EchoStar”), to construct, launch, and operate a new Direct Broadcast Satellite at 86.5º W.L. for
failure to meet the critical design review milestone, and rejected EchoStar’s request to modify its
86.5º W.L. authorization to allow the in-orbit EchoStar 8 satellite to provide service from that
orbital location. 1

       The FCC also has denied a few of EchoStar’s applications for initial license or
modification. 2

       The FCC has dismissed, but not denied on the merits, a few of EchoStar’s license
applications without prejudice to refiling. 3
