                    the specified parameters on any discrete frequencies within associated band in accordance with the other terms
                    and conditions of this authorization, subject to any additional limitations that may be required to avoid
                    unacceptable levels of inter—satellite interference.

H) Special and General Provisions
   A)This RADIO STATION               AUTHORIZATION is granted subject to the following special provisions and general
     conditions:
        2300 — Authority is granted to operate this station by remote control provided that: (1)the parameters of the transmissions
               of this station monitored at the remote control point, and the operational functions sufficient to ensure that the
                operations of this station are in full compliance with the station authorization at all times; (2) upon detection by
                the grantee, or upon notification from the Commission, of a deviation of the operation of this station,
                transmissions shall be immediately suspended until the deviation is corrected, except that transmissions
                concerning the immediate safety of life or property may be conducted for the duration of such emergency; and (3)
                the grantee shall have available, at all times, the technical personnel necessary to perform the technical servicing
                and maintenance of this station expeditiously. See also Public Notice "The International Bureau Provides
                Guidance Concerning the Relocation of Earth Station Remote Control Points", DA 06—978 (rel. May 4, 2006).
        2916 ——— Transmitter(s) must be turned off during antenna maintenance to ensure compliance with the FCC—specified safety
                 guidelines for human exposure to radiofrequency radiation in the region between the antenna feed and the
                 reflector. Appropriate measures must also be taken to restrict access to other regions in which the earth station‘s
                 power flux density levels exceed the specified guidelines.
        2938 ——— Upon completion of construction, each licensee must file with the Commission a certification including the
                 following information: (1) name of the licensee, (2) file number of the application, (3) call sign of the antenna, (4)
                 date of the license, (5) certification that the facility as authorized has been completed, (6) certification that each
                 antenna facility has been tested and is within 2 dB of the pattern specified in Section 25.209, and (7) certification
                 that the station is operational (including the date of commencement of service) and will remain operational during
                 the license period unless the license is submitted for cancellation.
        3219 — All existing transmitting facilities, operations and devices regulated by the Commission must be in compliance
                 with the Commission‘s radiofrequency (RF) exposure guidelines, pursuant to Section 1.1307(b)(1) through (b)(3)
                 of the Commission‘s rules, or if not in compliance, file an Environmental Assessment (EA) as specified in Section
                 1,1311. See 47 CFR § 1.1307 (b) (5).
     90364 ——— Any transmissions in the 27.5—28.35 GHz (Earth—to—space) frequency band are on a secondary basis with respect
               to LMDS until the provisions adopted in FCC 16—89 go into force. After that, this earth station is considered
                 grandfathered in this band pursuant to 47 CFR § 25.136(a)(2) or (a)(3).

                                   RADIO STATION AUTHORIZATION

Name: 03b Limited                                                                         Call Sign: E160129
Authorization Type: License                                                            File Number: SES—LIC—20160712—00640
Non Common Carrier                Grant date:    11/07/2016       Expiration Date:      11/07/2031




    B) This RADIO STATION AUTHORIZATION is granted subject to the additional conditions specified below:

              This authorization is issued on the grantee‘s representation that the statements contained in the application are
              true and that the undertakings described will becarried out in good faith.

              This authorization shall not be construed in any manner as a finding by the Commission on the question of
              marking or lighting of the antenna system should future conditions require. The grantee expressly agrees to
              install such marking or lighting as the Commission may require under the provisions of Section 303(g) of the
              Communications Act. 47 U.S.C. § 303(q).                                                                      c

              Neither this authorization nor the right granted by this authorization shall be assigned or otherwise transferred to
              any person, firm, company or corporation without the written consent of the Commission. This authorization is
              subject to the right of use or control by the governmentof the United States conferred by Section 706 of the
              Communications Act. 47 U.S.C. § 706. Operation of this station is governed by Part 25 of the Commission‘s
              Rules. 47 C.F.R. Part 25.

              This authorization shall not vest in the licensee any right to operate this station nor any right in the use of the
              designated frequencies beyond the term of this license, nor in any other manner than authorized herein.

              This authorization is issued on the grantee‘s representation that the station is in compliancewith environmental
              requirements set forth in Section 1.1307 of the Commission‘s Rules. 47 C.F.R. § 1.1307.

              This authorization is issued on the gran&ee's representation that the station is in compliance with the Federal
              Aviation Administration (FAA) requirements as set forth in Section 17.4 of the Commission‘s Rules. 47 C.F.R.§
              17.4.

              The following condition applies when this authorization permits construction of or modifies the construction
              permit ofa radio station.

              This authorization shall be automatically forfeited if the station does not meet each required construction
              deadlineby the required date of completion unless, before such date(s), a specific application is timely filed to
              request an extension of the construction deadline(s), supported with good cause why that failure to construct by
              the required date was due to factors not under control of the grantee.

              Licensees are required to pay annual regulatory fees related to this authorization. The requirement to
              collect annualregulatory fees from regulatees is contained in Public Law 103—66, "The Omnibus Budget
              Reconciliation Act of 1993." These regulatoryfees, which are likelyto change each fiscal year, are used
              to offset costs associated with the Commission‘s enforcement, public service, international and policy and
              rulemaking activities. The Commission issues a Report and Order each year, setting the new regulatory
              fee rates. Receive only carth stations are exempt from payment of regulatory fees.
