                  Request for Extension of Special Temporary Authority

       The International Bureau previously granted two requests filed by O3b Limited
("O3b") for special temporary authority ("STA") to conduct tests via the O3b satellite
system using a 1.2m earth station at the U.S Navy SPAWAR/CODA Lab at the U.S.
Navy Base in San Diego, California. The second of the two STAs, which was for a
location in the parking lot of the lab, was granted December 10, 2014.1

       Pursuant to Section 25.120 of the Commission‘s rules," O3b hereby requests a
further extension of this STA covering the 60—day period between January 9, 2015, and
March 10, 2015.

        O3b‘s extension request is supported by good cause. An extension will enable
03b to continue its testing and evaluation of 03b services that could benefit the U.S.
Navy. 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.
