H) Special and General Provisions
          A)This RADIO STATION AUTHORIZATION is granted subject to the following special provisions and general
             conditions:
            2200 ——— These facilities shall be used for the reception of only such programming material that the grantee has been
                     authorized to receive and use by the owner of the programming material.

            2456 ——— No protection beyond that afforded in "Deregulation of Domestic Receive—Only Satellite Earth Stations" will be
                     provided for TVRO earth stations. Due to 2 degree orbital spacing, "the potential levels of interference caused by
                     satellite transmissions are already defined and the actual level of any protection desired by an applicant from
                     intersatellite interference for small receiving earth station antennas will be achieved by the choice of receiving
                     antenna performance selected by parties installing new receive—only earth stations." FCC 86—133 36552.

H) Special and General Provisions
   A)This RADIO STATION             AUTHORIZATION is granted subject to the following special provisions and general
      conditions:
     2464 ——— The grantee is authorized to add, delete or change channels of program material without further application or
              notification to the Commission, provided: (a)The carriage of such program material is an authorized pursuant to
              the Commission‘s rules, regulations and policies governing the terrestrial system (s) used to distribute this
              material to the end subscribers, and (b) that such earth station operations are consistent with the technical
             — parameters specified in the registration.
     2465 ——— This provision relates to potential interference from terrestrial microwave stations. Operation of the receive—only
              earth station shall be in accordance with the frequency coordination exhibit accompanying the application.

      5216 ——— All operations shall be on a non—common carrier basis.


     9659 ——— The licensee is afforded 30 days from the date of issuance of this license to decline it as conditioned. Failure to
              respond within this period will constitute formal acceptance of the authorization as conditioned.

    B) This RADIO STATION AUTHORIZATION is granted subject to the additional conditions specified below:
              This authorization is issued on the grantee‘s representation that thestatements contained in the application are
              true and that the undertakings described will be carried out in goodfaith.

              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 ofSection 303(q) of the
              Communications Act. 47 U.S.C. §303(q).

              Neither this authorization nor the right granted bythis 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 ofthe
              designated frequencies beyond the term of this license, norin 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.§
              174.

              The following condition applies when this authorization permits construction of or modifies the construction
              permit ofa 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 ofauthorization to request additional time to
              complete construction is filed by that date, togetherwith a showing that failure to complete construction bythe
              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 arelikely 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.
