                              Description of STA Renewal Request

        Comtech Mobile Datacom Corporation ("CMDC") hereby requests that the Commission
renew and extend, with condition, the special temporary authority ("STA") that the Commission
granted for E990143 in File No. SES—STA—20110525—00628. This STA, which expires on June
29, 2011, gives CMDC authority to operate the mobile earth terminals ("MET‘s") presently
authorized pursuant to this license in portions of the L—band (1525—1544/1545—1559 MHz and
1626.5—1645.5/1646.5—1660.5 MHz) on MSAT—2 in orbital locations other than those currently
listed on the license. CMDC‘s permanent license authorizes CMDC to operate its METs on
MSAT—2 at 101.3°W.L. LightSquared Subsidiary LLC ("LightSquared") has launched SkyTerra
1 as the replacement satellite for MSAT—2 and is in the process of locating this satellite at
101.3°W.L. and moving MSAT—2 to 103.3°W.L. It is CMDC‘s understanding that its MET‘s will
continue to operate with MSAT—2 for an estimated eight (8) months after MSAT—2 is
repositioned, until SkyTerra 1 has been fully tested, service is transitioned to the new satellite,
and MSAT—2 is taken out of service.

        Grant of this STA renewal request will serve the public interest as it will enable CMDC
to continue to meet the needs of CMDC‘s existing customers, including the U.S. Army, for
services provided on LightSquared‘s satellites. CMDC accepts and complies with any condition
imposed in the original STA grant and acknowledges and accepts that grant of this STA renewal
request will be similarly conditioned. CMDC further acknowledges that any grant of this STA
renewal request is without prejudice to, and will be conditioned on, the Commission‘s final
action on any CMDC application.

        For the reasons set forth above, CMDC respectfully requests that its STA be renewed and
extended no later than June 29, 2011.
