                                                                       December 2007

     REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF SPECIAL TEMPORARY AUTHORITY
                        Call Sign: ©000166

         HNS License Sub, LLC ("Hughes") hereby requests that the Commission extend
for 30 days the Special Temporary Authority, File No. SES—STA—20071108—01545
("November STA"), it granted Hughes that allows Hughes to operate up to 1,000 1.2
meter Andrew Model 123 remote terminals through Hughes® Germantown hub. The
November STA became effective on November 10, 2007, and expires on December 9,
2007. The instant request would continue that authority for an additional 30 days,
through January 8, 2007.

         In its request for the original STA in July (File No. SES—STA—20070724—00980),
Hughes described how the antennas in question are currently authorized to be operated
pursuant to a license held by Spacenet Services License Sub, Inc. under Call Sign
E990294, and are includedas part of the VSAT network of the Sears retail chain. The
antennas had beenrefitted to operate through Hughes VSAT network as an interim step
to the ultimate inclusion of the terminals on the authorization for K Mart Corp.‘s VSAT
network under Call Sign E861095. The K Mart Corp. application for modification of its
license remains in preparation, so an extension of the STA for an additional 30 days is
required.

        All terms and operating conditions ofthe July STA are unchanged, and the
information in the request for the original STA request is hereby incorporated by
reference into this extension request. The requested extension of the November STA will
serve the public interest by ensuring that Hughes‘s customer will continue to have access
to the VSAT network services that are vital to the operation ofits retail business during
the consolidation phase of its parent company‘s communications facilities following the
merger of Sears and K Mart. Again, Hughes expects that permanent authority by K Mart
Corporation to operate the same terminals as part of K Mart‘s own VSAT system
(operation will continue on Galaxy 10R) will be sought in the very near future.

         Forall of the foregoing reasons, Hughes respectfully requests that the
Commission extend for an additional period of 30 days, through January 8, 2007, the
STA in File No. SES—STA—20071108—01545 authorizing Hughes to include 1,000 1.2
meter diameter Andrew antennas as part of its network for operation with the Galaxy 10R
satellite at 123° W.L.
