Dear Ms. Dortch:

       HNS License Sub, LLC ("Hughes"), licensee of the above—referenced earth station in
New York City, NY, by its attorneys, hereby requests an additional 12 months to meet the
construction deadline for the earth station. The modification application was granted on
October 14, 2009. The conditions in Section H of the modified authorization include the
obligation to complete construction by the "required date of completion" unless an extension is
requested and supported. Under Section 25.133(b) of the Commussion‘s rules, the required date
of completion for the modified facility was October 14, 2010.

        On October 14, 2010, Hughes requested a one—year extension of the deadline for
completion of construction to October 14, 2011, citing its inability to secure requisite
construction approvals from the owner of the property on which the antenna is to be built.
Hughes hereby requests a one—year extension of the deadline — or until October 14, 2012 — for
completion of construction. Hughes continues to be unable to secure the requisite
construction/installation approvals from the operator of the site on the UN Plaza at which the
antenna is to be installed, and this inability is a matter beyond Hughes‘s control. Hughes
emphasizes that it is prepared to proceed promptly with the installation once approval is
obtained. This is not a zoning issue.

       Please address any questions or requests for further information to me.

                                              Respectfully submitted,




                                             / phe
