                  Request for Extension of Special Temporary Authority

       On September 4, 2013, the International Bureau granted the request filed by O3b
Limited (“O3b”) for special temporary authority (“STA”) 1 to operate its earth station
located in Bristow, Virginia (the “Virginia Earth Station”) in accordance with the
parameters specified in its underlying application for permanent authority. 2 O3b has
submitted requests seeking extension of its STA, most recently through May 25, 2014. 3
Pursuant to Section 25.120 of the Commission’s rules, 4 O3b hereby requests a further
extension of its STA covering the 180-day period between May 26, 2014, and November
25, 2014.

       O3b’s extension request is supported by good cause. An extension will enable
O3b to continue its monitoring so that it may identify and resolve space station and
system anomalies. By granting O3b’s initial STA request, the Bureau already has found
that facilitating these activities is in the public interest.

       Accordingly, and for good cause shown, O3b respectfully requests that its STA
extension request be granted.
