                                           Description

        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 receive Earth imaging data using the uppermost
25 MHz of the 8025-8400 MHz band (the “X-band”). 1 See File No. SES-STA-20150224-00100,
as extended by File No. SES-STA-20150602-00318 and SES-STA-20150804-00509. The
existing STA expires on October 7, 2015, and DG Consents requests an extension through
December 6, 2015.

        The requirement to use the 8375-8400 MHz band will continue past the October 7
expiration of the existing STA, thereby necessitating this request to extend the STA for an
additional 60 days. 2 DigitalGlobe agrees to operate on a special temporary basis subject to the
conditions included with the initial STA grant. Grant of this request will serve the public interest
by allowing DigitalGlobe to continue to provide to the public without interruption its high-
resolution imagery services using the Wyoming earth station.

        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 through December 6,
2015.
