H) Special and General Provisions
   A)This RADIO STATION             AUTHORIZATION is granted subject to the following special provisions and general
      conditions:
         6 ——— Licensee must comply with the license modification and notification requirements of 47 CFR § 25.118 to change
               the coordinates of its authorized earth station.

     9661 ——— The 17.8 — 20.2 GHz band is shared with U.S. Government space stations and associated earth stations in the
              Fixed—Satellite Service. The satellite network of which this is a cooperating earth station is subject to
              coordination under US334 and operation of this earth station will be subject to any technical constraints resulting
              from this coordination.
    90349 ——— The operations of SES—15 to and from the United States and associated earth stations must comport with the
              applicable limits in 47 C.F.R. §§ 25:138 of the Commission‘s rules, unless SES coordinates any non—conforming
              operations with the operations of U.S.—licensed geostationary orbit space stations within 6 degrees of the 129.15°
              W.L. orbital location.
    90350 ——— Earth station operators in the United States seeking access to SES—15 for direct—to—home services may do so only
              after obtaining an earth station license that includes authority to receive direct—to—home services via the SES—15
              space station, or after modifying an existing earth station license to include authority to provide direct—to—home
              services via the SES—15 space station.
    90351 ——— The 29.25—29.5 GHz band is designated for uplinks for FSS systems using geostationary satellites and for feeder
              uplinks for Mobile Satellite Systems using non—geostationary orbit satellites on a co—primary basis. SES—15‘s
              operations in the 29.25—29.5 GHz band must comply with Section 25.258 of the Commission‘s rules. 47 C.F.R. §
              25.258.
    90398 ——— Changes to previously authorized transmitting facilities, operations and devices regulated by the Commission that
              may have significant environmental impact, and are not excluded by §1.1306, require the preparation of an
              Environmental Assessment (EA) by the licensee. (See 47 C.F.R. §§1.1307, 1.1308 and 1.1311)
    90399 ——— The licensee shall, at all times, take all necessary measures to ensure that operation of this (these) authorized earth
              station(s) 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. Physical 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.
   90439 ——— The Commission grandfathered all existing FSS earth stations in the 27.5—28.35 GHz band authorized as of July
              14, 2016. Spectrum Frontiers Report and Order, 31 FCC Red 8014, 8037 at 59 (2016). The proposed
              modifications to this FSS earth stations do not affect its grandfathered status under section 25.136. Accordingly,
              SES Americom may operate under the terms of its authorization without taking into account possible interference
              to UMFUS operations.

                                   RADIO STATION AUTHORIZATION

Name: SES Americom, Inc.                                                                Call Sign: E160022
Authorization Type: Modification of License                                          File Number: SES—MOD—20170920—01039
Non Common Carrier                 Grant date:   12/06/2017       Expiration Date:   07/13/2031




    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 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.
