Conditions of grant of Lockheed Martin Corporation SES—STA—20110722—00852 Lockheed Martin Corporation ("Lockheed Martin") is granted a 30 day extension of SES— STA—20110722—00852 special temporary authority ("STA") to operate its Carpentersville, New Jersey Ku—band fixed earth station (see File No. SES—LIC—20081103—01443, as amended) to provide telemetry, tracking and control ("TT&C") functions during the post— launch and transfer orbit phases of operation for the BSAT—3c¢ satellite that will be operated by the Broadcasting Satellite System Corporation of Japan. Authority is granted, with conditions enumerated below, to transmit on the 17305.0 MHz telecommand uplink channel and receive telemetry signals from the BSAT—3¢ satellite on the 11707.5 MHz to 30 August. This grant of authority will serve the public interest because these limited operations support a global network of control facilities that will be used to position the satellite as it progresses from transfer orbit to its final location. The safe and orderly use of the entire geostationary orbital resource and protection of the hundreds of satellites from the U.S. and other countries that operate there depends in no small part on ensuring that the BSAT—3c satellite is controlled while over North America. 1. All operations shall be on an unprotected, non—interference basis to both government and non—government operations. 2. All operations shall be limited to telemetry, tracking, and control (TT&C) 3. All emission will be within the parameters reflected in the Exhibit A attachment to SES—STA—20110518—00600. 4. Lockheed Martin must coordinate operations with space station operators that may be affected during the post—launch and transfer orbit phases of the earth station operation (Call Sign E920270) with the BSAT—3¢ satellite and will take all reasonable steps to swiftly eliminate any harmful interference caused. 3. In the event of any harmful interference, Lockheed Martin must inform the Commission, in writing, immediately. 6. Lockheed Martin has designated Michael Usarzewicz to be the contact person that will be available whenever transmission to, or reception from, BSAT—3c is to occur. Mr. Usarzewicz must be reachable at the following cell phone number: (609)—865— 2658 and/or station number: (908) 859—4050. 7. Appropriate safety protocols must be in place prior to the operation of the terminal to ensure that persons having access to areas where radiofrequency energy in excess of the maximum permissible limits specified in 47 C.F.R. § 1.1310 are not exposed. The exterior surface of the antenna shall be prominently marked with a sign warning of the potential for exposure to high levels of radiofrequency energy. 8. This authorization is not one relating to an "activity of a contmumg nature" for ,,, purposes df 47 C.F.R. § 1.62andi§iVU:S.C. § 558(c).

Lockheed Martin Corporation Carpentersville, New Jersey Earth Station Call Sign E7541 STA Request for LEOp TT&C Operations July 2011 Attachment Description Lockheed Martin Corporation ("Lockheed Martin®") requests a 30—day extension of the special temporary authority ("STA") it holds in File No. SES—STA—20110518—00600 ("BSAT—3c STA") to operate its Carpentersville, New Jersey Ku—band fixed earth station (see File No. SES— LIC—20081103—01443, as amended) ‘ to provide telemetry, tracking and control ("TT&C") functions during the post—launch and transfer orbit phases of operation for the BSAT—3¢ satellite that will be operated by the Broadcasting Satellite System Corporation of Japan. As Lockheed Martin explained in its request for the BSAT—3¢ STA, BSAT—3¢c was scheduled for launch on July 1, 2011. The launch was subsequently postponed, and is now scheduled to take place on August 2, 2011. Lockheed Martin requests a 30—day extension of the BSAT—3¢c STA —until August 30, 2011 — to accommodate possible further slippages in the launch schedule. All technical information in the Attachment to Lockheed Martin‘s request for the BSAT— 3¢ STA remains valid, and is hereby incorporated by reference. Michael Usarzewicz continues to be Lockheed Martin‘s designated contact person, and Mr. Usarzewicz will be available whenever transmission to, or reception from, BSAT—3c is to occur through the subject earth station. Mr. Usarzewicz can be reached at the following cell phone number: (609)—865—2658 and/or station number: (908) 8§59—4050. The limited operations Lockheed Martin proposes in support of the launch of BSAT—3c continue to be required in the public interest. Lockheed Martin‘s earth station will be part of a global network of control facilities that will be used to position the satellite as it progresses from transfer orbit to its final location. The safe and orderly use of the entire geostationary orbital resource and protection of the hundreds of satellites from the U.S. and other countries that operate there depends in no small part on ensuring that the BSAT—3c satellite is controlled while over North America, and Lockheed Martin‘s earth station thus will serve a limited—duration, but nonetheless vital function. Lockheed Martin and the satellite operator will coordinate in advance with any and all potentially affected entities that operate communications systems in compliance with the Table ‘ The pending application in File No. SES—LIC—20081103—01443, under Call Sign E7541, was filed on a provisional basis to replace Lockheed Martin‘s inadvertently non—renewed license for a 14.2 meter Ku—band antenna at the Carpentersville, NJ site under Call Sign E920702. Lockheed Martin‘s petition to reinstate the license for Call Sign E920702, as well as the "replacement" application it filed in the alternative under File No. SES—LIC—20081103— 01443 and Call Sign E7541, are pending.

of Frequency Allocations during the limited period of use. Lockheed Martin fully understands that all of its proposed launch and early—operations TT&C support for the BSAT—3¢ launch will be on a non—harmful interference, non—protected basis. Lockheed Martin has secured an updated temporary frequency coordination that covers the period from August 1, 2011 (which is before the re—scheduled BSAT—3¢ launch date) to beyond the proposed STA terminal date of August 30, 2011 for operations on the BSAT—3¢ TT&C frequencies from its Carpentersville earth station facility. The report is included as Exhibit A to this Attachment. In sum, Lockheed Martin requests a 30—day extension of its authority in the BSAT—3c STA to operate its Carpentersville, NJ Ku—band earth station antenna to provide critical TT&C services during the launch and early operations phase of the BSAT—3¢ satellite. The new STA term would run from July 31, 2011 to August 30, 2011. Action on this STA extension request is required by July 30, 2011, as the BSAT—3¢c STA grant specifically identified the BSAT—3¢ STA as "one not relating to an ‘activity of a continuing nature‘ for purposes of Section 1.62 of the Commussion‘s Rules."
