                                                                                               Attachment 1

                     Supplement to Request for Special Temporary Authority

Broadpoint Wireless License Co., LLC (“Broadpoint”) seeks special temporary authority
(“STA”) pursuant to Section 25.120 of the Commission’s rules1/ to operate the satellite earth
station facilities (the “Stations”) currently licensed to PetroCom License Corporation
(“PetroCom,” and together with Broadpoint, the “Parties”).2/

On April 29, 2010 the Parties submitted four applications seeking FCC consent to assign several
satellite earth station licenses from PetroCom to Broadpoint.3/ The Applications cover common
carrier and non-common carrier satellite earth station licenses and common carrier and non-
common carrier VSAT authorizations. Because the Applications remain subject to public
comment until June 4, 2010 (and the FCC may not consent to the Applications until after the
public comment period expires), Broadpoint requires an STA in order to close prior to the
expiration of the public notice period. Hence, the STA is requested to be effective as of June 1,
2010 for a period of 60 days.

In addition to the satellite licenses covered by the referenced applications, this transaction
involves wireless licenses and a Section 214 authorization. As of June 1, 2010, the FCC will
have granted its consent to the assignment of all authorizations except for the satellite
authorizations.4/ In order to close this transaction on June 1st, Broadpoint respectfully requests
STA so that it may operate the Stations prior to the end of the public notice period on June 4th.

        Broadpoint filed four STA requests on May 18, 2010. See SES-STA-20100518-00617; SES-STA-
20100518-00618; SES-STA-20100518-00619; SES-STA-20100518-00620.

          See FCC File Nos. SES-20100429-00503, SES-ASG-20100429-00504, SES-ASG-20100429-00505 and
SES-ASG-20100429-00506 (the “Applications”). The Applications appeared on pre-grant Public Notice on May 5,
2010 (Report SES-01240, rel. May 5, 2010). Applications seeking FCC consent to assign the licenses specified in
the Applications were initially submitted on April 19, 2010 and bore the IBFS submission numbers IB2010001219
and IB2010001214). However, because those earlier submitted applications did not distinguish between common
carrier and non-common carrier operations, new applications were subsequently submitted and accepted for filing.
