H) Special and General Provisions
   A)This RADIO STATION AUTHORIZATION is granted subject to the following special provisions and general
     conditions:
     2938 --- Upon completion of construction, each licensee must file with the Commission a certification including the
              following information: (1) name of the licensee, (2) file number of the application, (3) call sign of the antenna, (4)
              date of the license, (5) certification that the facility as authorized has been completed, (6) certification that each
             antenna facility has been tested and is within 2 dB of the pattern specified in Section 2 5.209, and (7) certification
             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.
     3219 --- All existing transmitting facilities, operations and devices regulated by the Commission must be in compliance
              with the Commissions radiofrequency (RF) exposure guidelines, pursuant to Section 1. 1307(b)(1) through (b)(3)
              of the Commission's rules, or if not in compliance, file an Environmental Assessment (EA) as specified in Section
              1.1311. See 47 CFR 1.1307 (b) (5).
     4335 ---In accordance with US Footnote 308, the operation of METs in the 1545.5-1559.0 and 1646.5-1660.5 MHz is on
              a secondary basis to U.S. AMS{RJS requirements of other U.S.-authorized MSS providers operating in the
              1545.5-1559.0 and 1646.5-1660.5 MHz bands.
     5208 --- The licensee shall take all necessary measures to ensure that the antenna 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 wherever such exposures might occur. Measures must be taken to ensure 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 detennined 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.
     5216   ---   All operations shall be on a non-common carrier basis.


     5852 --- The authorized mobile earth terminals (METs) shall comply with the out-of-band emission limits set forth in
              Sections 25.202(f) and 25.216 of the Commission's rules. See 47 C.F.R. § 25.202(f) and 25.216; Out-of-Band
             Emission Orders, FCC 02-34 (rel. May 14, 2002), as amended by FCC-03-0283 (rel. November 18, 2003).
     5956 --- The authorized mobile earth terminals (METs) shall comply with the out-of-band emission limits set forth in
              Sections 25.202(f) and 25.216 of the Commission's rules. See 47 C.F.R. § 25.202(f) and 25.216; Out-of-Band
              Emission Orders, FCC 02-34 (rel. May 14, 2002), as amended by FCC-03-0283 (rel. November 18, 2003).
     5957 --- Licensees must comply with the terms of any L-band operator-to-operator coordination agreement. In the
              absence of a continuing L-band operator-to-operator coordination agreement, operations of METs in the
              1525-1559 and 1626.5-1660.5 MHz bands will be on a non-harmful interference basis until a future
              operator-to-operator agreement is concluded. In this instance, each licensee must notify the other operators in
             these frequency bands that it will be operating on a non-harmful interference basis. Each licensee must notify its
             customers that its operations are on a non-hannful interference basis.
     6553 ---In accordance with Footnote US308, operation in the upper L-band 1545-1559 and 1646.5-1660.5 MHz, is on a
              secondary basis to U.S. AMS[R]S requirements of other U.S.-authorized MSS providers operating in the
              1545-1559 and 1646.5-1660.5 MHz bands.

Non Common Carrier                Grant date:    09/28/20 15      Expiration Date: 05/08/2028




   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 3 03(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 does not meet each required construction
              deadline by the required date of completion unless, before such date(s), a specific application is timely filed to
              request an extension Of the construction deadline(s), supported with good cause why that failure to construct 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.
