H) Special and General Provisions
   A)This RADIO STATION              AUTHORIZATION is granted subject to the following special provisions and general
      conditions:
     5223 ——— All operations via the PANAMSAT satellite system are restricted to the provision of capacity through the sale or
              lease of transponder capacity for communications not interconnected to the public switched network. This
              authorization is subject to all terms and conditions imposed on the PANAMSAT satellite system by the
              Commission. This autorization is not to be construed as including any uplink or downlink authority in other
              countries, and all communications via PANAMSAT satellite system shall be between the US and those countries
              authorized in the above—referenced application which PANAMSAT satellite system is authorized by the
              Commission to serve.
     5225 ——— This action constitutes the final step with respect to the provision of the services only insofar as the US regulatory
              process is concerned. However, this authority shall not be construed as authorizing the distribution of
              programming where the approriate copyright clearances have not been obtained or where the U.S. Government
              has determined that appropriate copyright protection does not otherwise exist.
     5822 ——— 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
              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.htm1l), 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.
             Additionally, per US 245, in the band 3600—3650 MHz, these fixed—satellite service operations are limited to
              international inter—continental satellite systems.
     5823 ——— 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,
              operating in the frequency band in accordance with footnote G2.                 (See, e.g., NTIA Report Federal Radar
              Spectrum Requirements, (http://www.ntia.doc.gov/osmhome/reports/ntia00—40/ntia00—40.pdf), NTIA Report
              83—115,        Spectrum       Resource         Assessment       in        the       5650—5925        MHz         Band
             (http://www.fec.gov/ib/srd/fedreg_ntiareport.html1), and FCC Fifth Notice of Inquiry in Preparation for a General
             World Administrative Conference in 1979 (Docket 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. Additionally, this fixed—satellite service earth station is
             limited to operations over international inter—continental satellite systems.
    90012 ——— Transmission     and    reception    of   TT&C        signals    using     emission    designators   specified    herein
             SES—MFS—20110204—00111 not at the edge of the 3700—4200 MHz (space to Earth) or 5925—6425 MHz (Earth
             to space) bands are granted only if a waiver of 47 C.F.R. § 25.202(g) has been granted to the U.S. licensed
             satellite.

              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

              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 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

             complete construction is filed by that date, together with a showing that failure to complete construction by the

             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.
