         Description of Request for Special Temporary Authority Extension



      DG Consents Sub, Inc. ("DG Consents"), pursuant to Section 25.120(b)(3) of the
Commission‘s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 25.120(b)(3), hereby requests a 60—day extension of its
existing Special Temporary Authority ("STA") to communicate between its Earth
Exploration Satellite Service ("EESS") earth station in Fairbanks, Alaska (Call Sign
E950499) and the GeoEye—1 and IKONOS space stations. See File No. SES—STA—
20130228—00224. The existing STA expires on June 28, 2013, and DG Consents requests
an extension through August 27, 2013.

       In its initial request for STA, DG Consents explained that it required temporary
operating authority to allow for immediate testing of communications links between the
Fairbanks earth station and GeoEye—1 and IKONOS®S in advance of Commission action on
DG Consent‘s concurrently filed request for permanent authority. See File No. SES—
MOD—20130228—00223. That request for permanent authority (which was accepted for
filing on June 26, 2013) remains pending before the Commission, and DG Consents‘
need to operate from Fairbanks will continue past the June 28 expiration date of the
existing STA. Accordingly, DG Consents requests an additional 60 days of STA pending
Commission action on the application for permanent authority. Grant of this extension
request will serve the public interest by enabling DigitalGlobe, Inc., parent company of
DG Consents, to continue consolidation of its existing and newly acquired EESS
operations without delay and assure the continued safe operation of the two subject space
craft. DG Consents affirms that extended operations will continue in accordance with
the conditions attached to the initial grant of STA.

       In summary, DG Consents respectfully requests that the Commission grant this
request for extension of its Special Temporary Authority for a period of 60 days
commencing on June 28, 2013.
