H) Special and General Provisions
   A) This RADIO STATION AUTHORIZATION is granted subject to the following special provisions and general
      conditions:
      336 --- Inmarsat’s request for a waiver of Section 25.202(g) is GRANTED. Section 25.202(g) requires "telemetry,
              tracking, and telecommand (TT&C) functions for U.S. domestic satellites shall be conducted at either or both
              edges of the allocated band(s). Frequencies, polarization, and coding shall be selected to minimize interference stub
              into other satellite networks and within their own satellite system." This waiver is based on the following
              findings:

              (a) the Inmarsat 4F1 and 4F3 spacecraft have been coordinated with adjacent operators to allow TT&C in these
              bands;

              (b) altering current coordination agreements for these and adjacent locations would be unduly disruptive of
              ongoing operations;

              (c) the Inmarsat 4FI and 4F3 spacecraft have been placed into operation and the TT&C frequencies upon
              which they rely cannot be altered. Inmarsat states that the design of the Inmarsat 4 spacecraft was
              completed in 2001, before it anticipated performing TT&C operations for these spacecraft in the U.S.

       341 --- Grant of Intelsat’s waiver of 25.202(g) is subject to the following conditions:

              (a) Inmarsat must coordinate its operations with space stations operating within 6 degrees of the Inmarsat 4F1 and stub
              4F3 space stations.

              (b) Notwithstanding the International Coordination Status, Inmarsat’s operations must be on non-interference
              basis, i.e., Inmarsat may not cause harmful interference to, or claim protection from,any authorized space stations
              operating in the conventional C-band frequencies, and shall cease operations immediately upon notification of
              such interference.

              (c) In the event Inmarsat is notified of interference, it may request special temporary authority to operate TT&C
              under an alternate plan.

              (d) Within 90 days of the grant of this authorization, Inmarsat must file with the Commission a comprehensive
              plan detailing how it will protect other authorized operators using the C-band frequencies. This plan should
              specify Inmarsat’s power levels, and include a list of all parties with which Inmarsat has coordination agreements.

              (e) Inmarsat must accommodate future space station and earth station networks that are compliant with Section
              25.202(g).

              (f) The uplink antenna sizes for this earth station must be no less than 16 meters.
     1010 --- Applicable to all receiving frequency bands. Emission designator indicates the maximum bandwidth of received
              signal at associated station(s). Maximum EIRP and maximum EIRP density are not applicable to receive
              operations.                                                                                                  stub

H) Special and General Provisions
   A) This RADIO STATION AUTHORIZATION is granted subject to the following special provisions and general
      conditions:
    15822 --- The 3600-3650 MHz band is shared on a co-primary basis in the U.S. and Possessions with Federal Government
              radiolocation systems. Unacceptable interference may be caused to this earth station from radiolocation systems,
              including high-powered, highly mobile, shipborne and airborne radar transmitters, operating in the frequency stub
              band. Consistent with the applicant's EMC analysis (as required by US245 and based on the NTIA TR-99-361
              Report, Technical Characteristics of Radiolocation Systems operating in the 3.1-3.7 GHz Band and Procedures
              for     assessing       EMC       with     Fixed       Earth      Station      Receivers       (available     at
              http://www.ntia.doc.gov/osmhome/reports.html), the licensee accepts this potential for unacceptable interference.
              In the case that out-of-band interference does occur, the licensee is further aware that use of a RF filter ahead of
              the low noise amplifier (LNA) will limit potential out-of-band interference to its receiving earth station.
    15823 --- The 5850-5925 MHz band is shared in the U.S. and Possessions on a co-primary basis with Federal Government
              radiolocation systems. Unacceptable interference may be caused to this earth station's communication links from
              radiolocation systems, including high-powered land-based transportable and shipborne radar transmitters, stub
              operating in the frequency band in accordance with footnote G2. (See, e.g., NTIA Report Federal Radar Spectrum

              No. 20271; FCC 77-349)). As required by US245, the earth station licensee is aware of the EMC environment
              and this sharing situation with the radiolocation service and accepts the potential for unacceptable interference.
    15859 --- The 3650-3700 MHz band is shared on a co-primary basis in three Federal Government radiolocation systems
              identified in US348. Unacceptable interference may be caused to this earth station from these three radiolocation
              systems operating in the frequency band. Consistent with the applicant's EMC analysis (as required by US348 and stub
              based on the NTIA TR-99-361 Report, Technical Characteristics of Radiolocation Systems operating in the
              3.1-3.7 GHz Band and Procedures for assessing EMC with Fixed Earth Station Receivers (available at
              http://www.ntia.doc.gov/osmhome/reports.html), the licensee accepts this potential for unacceptable interference
              from the three stations identified in US348. In the case that out-of-band interference does occur, the licensee is
              further aware that use of a RF filter ahead of the low noise amplifier (LNA) will limit potential out-of-band
              interference to its receiving earth station.

   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.
