      A) This RADIO STATION AUTHORIZATION is granted—subject—to the following special provisions and general conditions:

                 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.

                 1900       Applicable to all transmitting frequency bands. Authority is granted to transmit any number of RF carriers with 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.

                2010        This authorization is issued pursuant to the Commission‘s Second Report and Order adopted June 16, 1972 (35 FCC
                            2d §44) and Memorandum, Opinion and Order adopted December 21, 1972 (38 FCC 2d 665) in Docket No. 16495 and
                            is subject to the policies adopted in that proceeding.

                2079        (a) Operation of this station is limited to locations within the territory ofthe United States. (b) All—operations shall be in
                            accordance with the applicable provisions of Sections 21.707 & 21.708 ofthe—Rules. (c) Unless separate authorization
                            is granted by the Commission for the International communications, opérations héerein are limited to communication
                            with earth stations within the United States via U.S. domestic satellites.

                2087        The use of these—small diameter facilities is authorized pursuant to the Commission‘s Declaratory Order in Routine
                            Licensing of earth stations in the 6 GHz and 14 GHzbands using antennas less than 9 meters and 5 meters in diameter,
                            respectively, for both full transponder and narrowband transmissions (DA 87—391) released April 13, 1987.

                2088        The EIRP and EIRP Density numbers are the maximum permissable under the Commission‘s Declaratory Order (DA87
                            —391) noted in General Provision 2087.

                2454        All satellite uplink transmissions carrying broadband video information shall comply with the Automatic Transmitter
                            Identification System (ATIS) requirements of Section 25.281 of the Rules, as modified by FCC Report No. DS—1066,
                            released on April 3, 1991.

                2810        The grantee shall maintain on file with the Commission‘s current list or plan of the precise frequencies in actual use at
                            this station, specifying for each such frequency: the r.f. center frequency, polarization, emission designator, EIRP
                            (dBW), EIRP density (dBW/4kH2z), and receiving earth station(s). This list or plan may be submitted either on a station
                            —by—station basis or on a system—wide basis, and shall be updated within seven days of any changes in frequency usage
                            at this station. Temporary usage of frequencies for periods ofless than seven days need not be notified to the
                            Commission if accurate station records are maintained of the times and particulars of such temporary frequency usage.


                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: name of the licensee, file number of the application, call sign of the antenna, date of the license and
                           certification that the facility as authorized has been completed, that each antenna facility has been tested and is within 2
                           dB of the pattern specified in Section 25.209 and 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.

H) Special and General Provisions
         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.FR. §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 construction permit for
              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 regulates 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.
