              unacceptable levels of inter—satellite interference.
     2627 ——— All services are interconnected to the Public Switched Network.


     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.
     3219 ——— All existing transmitting facilities, operations and devices regulated by the Commission must be in compliance
              with the Commission‘s 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

     3848 ——— The authorized frequency band(s) has (have) been cleared with the National Telecommunications and Information
              Administration.

     5012 ——— The authority granted here is limited to the operation of the facilities described above and does not include any
              authority to install and operate channelizing equipment or any other authority under Section 214 of the
              Communications Act of 1934, as amended, to establish channels of communications.
     5014 ——— With respect to potential co—channel interference to or from terrestrial microwave radio stations, the transmit and
              receive frequency bands listed in this license have been cleared for transmissions to and from satellites located in
              the geostationary or non—geostationary orbit for the emissions designated in Section B of this license.
     5015 ——— 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
   A)This RADIO STATION            AUTHORIZATION is granted subject to the following special provisions and general
     conditions:
     5017 ——— Operation of this station is governed by the terms, conditions and limitations in Part 25 of the Commission‘s Rules
              and Regulations and the following additional conditions: 1. This license shall not vest in the Licensee(s) any right
              to operate the station or any right in the use of the frequencies designated in the license beyond its term or in any
              other manner than authorized in the license; 2. Neither the license nor the right granted under it shall be assigned
              or otherwise transferred in violation of the Commissions or otherwise transferred in violation of the
              Communications Act of 1934, as amended, or the Commission‘s Rules and Regulations issued under it; and 3.
              This station is subject to the right of use or control conferred by Section 706 of the Communications Act of 1934,
              as amended.
     5018 ——— This license shall be forfeited automatically if this station is not ready for operation within the time specified
              unljess, prior to the expiration date of this license, the Commission receives an Application for Additional Time to
              Construct a Radio Station (FCC Form 701) filed by the Licensee(s) showing good cause why the Licensee(s)
              could not complete construction on time.
     5058 ——— All operations shall be conducted on a common carrier basis and shall comply with the Commission‘s decisions in
              CC Docket No. 87—75 and General Docket 84—1234.

     5202 ———Use of this facility to provide international service on a common carrier basis will require appropriate
              authorization under Section 214 of the Communication Act of 1934, as amended.

     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 determined by predictions based on calculations, modeling, or by field
              measurements. The FCC‘s OET Bulletin 65 (available on—line at www.fec.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.
     5215 ——— All operations shall be on a common carrier basis.


     5630 ——— International services shall be consistent with this emission designator, the underlying title III application(s) and
              the acquisition of any necessary Section 214 authority.

     5830 ——— This authorization is subject to the conditions and terms set forth in the Commission‘s Memorandum Opinion,
              Order and Authorization, FCC 01—272, released October 9, 2001 (INMARSAT Ltd. Order).

    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
