H) Special and General Provisions
   A) This RADIO STATION AUTHORIZATION is granted subject to the following special provisions and general
      conditions:
    90101 --- In the 17.8-20.2 GHz frequency range, in order to protect Federal satellite services, the licensee shall
              communicate only with satellites whose operator has completed an agreement with Federal operators pursuant to
              footnote US334 of the U.S. Table of Frequency Allocations, 47 C.F.R. § 2.106, and that agreement has been stub
              approved by both the Federal Communications Commission and the National Telecommunications and
              Information Administration. The licensee's operations pursuant to this authorization shall be consistent with such
              US334 agreements.
    90116 --- The licensee must maintain a U.S. point of contact available 24 hours per day, seven days per week, with the
              authority and ability to terminate operations authorized herein. The licensee shall have available, at all times, the
              technical personnel necessary to perform supervision of remote station operations.                                    stub
    90122 --- The earth stations in this blanket license are operated by remote control. The remote control point is a material
              term of the license and may not be changed without prior authorization under Section 25.117 of the Commission's
              rules. Public Notice "The International Bureau Provides Guidance Concerning the Relocation of Earth Station stub
              Remote Control Points," DA 06-978 (rel. May 4, 2006).
    90123 --- Operations authorized pursuant to this license are operations by U.S.-registered aircraft anywhere within the
              coverage area/frequency bands identified in the application for the satellites listed as points of communication.
              Operations authorized pursuant to this license also include operations by non-U.S.-registered aircraft within U.S. stub
              territory, including territorial waters. Authorization for operations by U.S.-registered aircraft outside U.S.
              territory, pursuant to this license, does not constitute a grant of access to the market in the United States under the
              Commission's DISCO II policies.
    90211 --- The antenna performance specifications do not comply with Sections 25.138(a) and 25.209 of the FCC Rules.
              The operation of these antennas will not be protected from harmful interference caused by other geostationary
              satellite networks to the extent that harmful interference would not be expected to be caused to an antenna that is stub
              compliant with the antenna performance standards of Section 25.209.
    90245 --- When the ESAA network is put into operation, the licensee must file with the Commission a certification
              including the following information: name of the licensee, file number of the application, call sign of the antenna,
              date of the license and certification that the network was put into operation and will remain operational during the stub
              license period unless the license is submitted for cancellation.
    90246 --- ESAAs authorized herein must employ a tracking algorithm that is resistant to capturing and tracking adjacent
              satellite signals, and each station must be capable of inhibiting its own transmission in the event it detects
              unintended satellite tracking.                                                                                 stub
    90247 --- ESAAs authorized herein must be monitored and controlled by a ground-based network control and monitoring
              center. Such stations must be able to receive "enable transmission" and "disable transmission" commands from
              the network control center and must cease transmission immediately after receiving a "parameter change" stub
              command until receiving an "enable transmission" command from the network control center. The network
              control center must monitor operation of each ESAA to determine if it is malfunctioning, and each ESAA must
              self-monitor and automatically cease transmission on detecting an operational fault that could cause harmful
              interference to a fixed-satellite service network.

Non Common Carrier               Grant date:   04/17/2018      Expiration Date:   04/17/2033




H) Special and General Provisions
   A) This RADIO STATION AUTHORIZATION is granted subject to the following special provisions and general
      conditions:
    90253 --- When operating in airspace within line-of-sight of the territory of a foreign administration where Fixed Service
              networks have an allocation in the 28.35- 29.1 GHz or 29.5-30.0 GHz frequency bands, the ESAAs must not
              exceed the following EIRP limits:                                                                                stub

              +64 dBW in any 1 MHz band if Theta is less than or equal to 0°
              +64 + 3*Theta dBW in any 1 MHz band if Theta is greater than 0° but less than or equal to 5°

              where Theta is the angle of elevation of the horizon viewed from the center of radiation of the antenna of the
              earth station and measured in degrees as positive above the horizontal plane and negative below it.
    90254 --- ESAAs authorized previously (SES-LIC-20120427-00404) must cease transmissions when the antenna-to-GSO
              skew angle for antenna ID "1", Model M40, exceeds 60° and the off-axis EIRP spectral density emissions risk
              harmful interference to a GSO space station. The ESAA may resume transmissions once the risk of harmful stub
              interference has passed.
    90256 --- Operation of ESAAs authorized herein are subject to any requirements the Commission may adopt in any future
              proceeding concerning operations in the 18.3-19.3 GHz, 19.7-20.2 GHz, 28.35-29.1 GHz, and 29.5-30.0 GHz
              band frequencies including, but not limited to, ESAAs communicating with geostationary orbit space stations. stub

    90257 --- ESAAs authorized herein must be in compliance with the terms of coordination agreements with operators of
              non-geostationary orbit Fixed Satellite Service space stations operating in the 18.8-19.3 and 28.6-29.1 GHz
              frequency band. In the event another NGSO FSS system commences operation in the 18.8-19.3 and 28.6-29.1 stub
              GHz frequency bands, ESAAs operating pursuant to this authorization must cease operation unless and until such
              operation has been coordinated with the new NGSO system operator or the ESAA licensee demonstrates that such
              operation will not cause harmful interference to the new NGSO system.
    90258 --- The licensee must maintain records of the following data for each operating ESAA: location (latitude, longitude,
              altitude); aircraft attitude (pitch, yaw, roll); transmit frequency and occupied bandwidth; data rate; EIRP; and
              target satellite. This data must be recorded at intervals of no more than one minute while an ESAA is transmitting stub
              and every 30 seconds when aircraft roll angle is greater than 10 degrees. The licensee must also record instances
              when ESAA pointing error exceeds 0.2 degrees. The licensee must make this data available upon request to a
              fixed-satellite service system operator or the Commission within 24 hours after receiving the request.
    90259 --- For purposes of this authorization, the term earth stations aboard aircraft, or ESAA, is used to refer to any earth
              station on aircraft communicating with Fixed-Satellite Service (FSS) geostationary-orbit (GSO) space stations,
              without reference to the technical and licensing rules specifically adopted for earth stations on aircraft in the stub
              10.95-11.2 GHz, 11.45-11.7 GHz, 11.7-12.2 GHz, and 14.0-14.5 GHz frequency bands. See 47 C.F.R. § 25.227;
              Revisions to Parts 2 and 25 of the Commission's Rules to Govern the Use of Earth Stations Aboard Aircraft
              Communicating with Fixed-Satellite Service Geostationary-Orbit Space Stations Operating in the 10.95-11.2
              GHz, 11.34-11.7 GHz, 11.7-12.2 GHz and 14.0-14.5 GHz Frequency Bands, IB Docket No. 12-376, Notice of
              Proposed Rulemaking and Report and Order, FCC 12-161, 27 FCC Rcd 16510 (2012); Revisions of Parts 2 and
              25 of the Commission's Rules to Govern the Use of Earth Stations Aboard Aircraft Communicating with
              Fixed-Satellite Service Geostationary-Orbit Space Stations Operating in the 10.95-11.2 GHz, 11.45-11.7 GHz,

Name: ViaSat, Inc.                                                                  Call Sign: E180006
Authorization Type: License                                                       File Number: SES-LIC-20180123-00055
Non Common Carrier               Grant date:   04/17/2018      Expiration Date:   04/17/2033




H) Special and General Provisions
   A) This RADIO STATION AUTHORIZATION is granted subject to the following special provisions and general
      conditions:
    90333 --- The Commission has not adopted technical rules governing ESAA operations in the 28.1-28.35 GHz frequency
              band, which is allocated to LMDS on a primary basis. We grant waivers of the U.S. Table of Frequency
              Allocations, the Commission's Ka-band plan, and footnote 2 to the table in 47 C.F.R. § 25.202 to authorize the stub
              operation of ESAA Antenna IDs M32 and M40 in this frequency band. Operations of ESAA Antenna IDs M32
              and M40 in the 28.1-28.35 frequency band are secondary to fixed and mobile operations and must be conducted
              on a non-interference basis and must cease in the event of harmful interference. Operations of ESAAs in the
              28.1-28.35 frequency band are subject to any future decisions the Commission may take about operations in this
              band. Waiver is based on the public interest in providing broadband services to passengers aboard aircraft.
              Because the waiver is conditioned on operations on an unprotected and non-interference basis solely at altitudes
              above 10,000 feet of mean sea level, the underlying purpose of the rules in protecting primary terrestrial spectrum
              users from interference is not undermined by grant of this waiver.
    90398 --- Changes to previously authorized transmitting facilities, operations and devices regulated by the Commission that
              may have significant environmental impact, and are not excluded by §1.1306, require the preparation of an
              Environmental Assessment (EA) by the licensee. (See 47 C.F.R. §§1.1307, 1.1308 and 1.1311)                        stub
    90399 --- The licensee shall, at all times, take all necessary measures to ensure that operation of this (these) authorized
              earth station(s) does not create potential exposure of humans to radiofrequency radiation in excess of the FCC
              exposure limits defined in 47 CFR §§ 1.1307(b) and 1.1310. Physical measures must be taken to ensure stub
              compliance with limits for both occupational/controlled exposure and for general population/uncontrolled
              exposure, as defined in these rule sections. Compliance can be accomplished in most cases by appropriate
              restrictions, such as fencing. Requirements for restrictions can be determined by predictions based on
              calculations, modeling, or by field measurements. The FCC's OET Bulletin 65 (available on-line at
              www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety) provides information on predicting exposure levels and on methods for ensuring
              compliance, including the use of warning and alerting signs and protective equipment for workers.
    90462 --- The ESAAs are authorized, on a non-protected and non-harmful interference basis, to transmit to the following
              geostationary-orbit space station: VIASAT-2 (Call Sign S2902) at 69.9° W.L. using the 28.35-28.6 GHz and
              29.5-30.0 GHz frequency bands. The ESAAs authorized herein must immediately terminate operations upon stub
              notification that such operation is causing harmful interference to any other radio system lawfully operating in the
              28.35-28.6 GHz and 29.5-30.0 GHz frequency bands. The ESAAs authorized herein cannot claim protection
              from harmful interference from any radio system lawfully operating in the 28.35-28.6 GHz and 29.5-30.0 GHz
              frequency bands.
    90463 --- The ESAAs are authorized, on a non-protected and non-harmful interference basis, to receive downlink
              transmissions from the following geostationary-orbit space station: VIASAT-2 (Call Sign S2902) at 69.9° W.L. in
              the 17.7-18.1 GHz, 18.3-18.6 GHz, and 19.7-20.2 GHz. The ESAAs operations authorized herein must accept stub
              interference from any radio system lawfully operating in the 17.7-18.1 GHz, 18.3-18.6 GHz, and 19.7-20.2 GHz
              frequency bands.
    90464 --- Operations pursuant to this authorization must be in compliance with the terms of the coordination agreements
              with operators of Ka-band geostationary space stations within thirty angular degrees of the target satellite
              VIASAT-2. In the event another GSO space station commences operation in the 28.35-28.6 GHz and 29.5-30.0 stub
              GHz frequency bands at a location within thirty degrees of any of the target satellites, ESAAs operating pursuant
              to this authorization must cease transmitting to the target satellite(s) unless and until such operation has been
              coordinated with the new space station's operator or ViaSat Inc. demonstrates that such operation will not cause
              harmful interference to the new co-frequency space station.

H) Special and General Provisions
   A) This RADIO STATION AUTHORIZATION is granted subject to the following special provisions and general
      conditions:
    90465 --- ESAAs antenna ID "GM40", model GM40, must cease transmissions when the antenna-to-GSO skew angle
              exceeds 60° and the off-axis EIRP spectral density emissions risk harmful interference to a GSO space station.
              The ESAA may resume transmissions once the risk of harmful interference has passed.                            stub
   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 be carried 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(q) of the
              Communications Act. 47 U.S.C. § 303(q).

              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 government of 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 compliance with 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 grantee'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 of a radio station.

              This authorization shall be automatically forfeited if the station is not ready for operation by the required date of
              completion of construction unless an application for modification of authorization to request additional time to
              complete construction is filed by that date, together with a showing that failure to complete construction 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 annual regulatory fees from regulatees is contained in Public Law 103-66, "The Omnibus Budget
              Reconciliation Act of 1993." These regulatory fees, which are likely to 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 earth stations are exempt from payment of regulatory fees.
