REQUEST FOR SPECIAL TEMPORARY AUTHORITY Telesat Network Services, Inc. ("Telesat"), pursuant to Section 25.120 of the Commission‘s rules, hereby requests Special Temporary Authority ("STA") to operate a temporary—fixed 2.4—m mobile antenna at its Mt. Jackson, VA teleport in the manner described herein. Telesat respectfully requests that its STA begin on December 14, 2015, for a period of 30 days, to permit testing of facilities that will communicate with the Telstar 12 Vantage ("T12V") satellite.! The T12V satellite is planned for launch on November 24, 2015. The Commission has authorized Skynet Satellite Corporation, a Telesat affiliate, to operate the Telstar 12V satellite at 15°W.L.2 Specifically, the temporary—fixed antenna will be used to test the diversity switching functionality between the Mt. Jackson teleport and a proximate earth station site in Middletown, VA. Telesat anticipates operating at each site a 9.4—m antenna to support the services provided on the T12V satellite in the Ka—band.> The Mt. Jackson antenna will be the primary one during nominal operation, but during periods of rain fade at Mt. Jackson and lesser atmospheric attenuation conditions at Middletown, the Middletown antenna will be used to transmit to and receive from Telstar 12V. When Middletown is active, the signals to be transmitted and that are generated at Mt. Jackson are switched onto a fiber optic link between the two sites. Similarly, the satellite signals received at Middletown are switched to the fiber optic link. In order to test and tune the switching equipment and the fiber optic link, the 2.A—m mobile antenna will simulate a user terminal both transmitting and receiving. In addition, it will uplink a Ka—band pilot carrier to be received at the 9.4—m antennas to allow their receive patterns to be measured. The subject antenna will be located within a secured perimeter at the Mt. Jackson teleport to which only authorized employees would have access. Telesat is also providing herewith a radiation hazard report. In addition, Telesat is providing a Frequency Coordination Report to demonstrate that coordination has been successfully completed with terrestrial operators in the 28 GHz band.* 1 Telesat notes that it is concurrently filing herewith a second STA request for an additional 180 days to continue operation of the subject facility from January 14, 2016. Telesat anticipates that it will require a period through July 2016 to complete the subject testing and to make the appropriate network calibrations. 2 ECC File No. SAT—LOA—20141010—00107. 3 FCC File Nos. SES—LIC—20151014—00689 and SES—LIC—20151016—00712. In addition to the instant request, Telesat will be submitting STA requests to cover the operation of the referenced 9.4—m antennas, as grant of those license requests will not be possible prior to the date on which testing must commence. 4 Telesat notes that it has not sought frequency protection for its proposed temporary receive operations and is willing to accept any interference it receives during the testing.

Finally, Telesat is attaching to this request a completed Schedule B in which it furnishes the technical details that relate to the proposed operations. Grant of this application will serve the public interest, convenience, and necessity by allowing Telesat to test and calibrate its ground network system to support a newly launched satellite. Accordingly, and for good cause shown, Telesat respectfully requests that its STA be granted in time for it to commence testing under this 30—day STA on December 14, 2015.

EXHIBIT A Radiation Hazard Study 2.4 meter Ka—Band INTRODUCTION The FCC adopted new guidelines and procedures in 1996 for evaluating environmental effects of radio frequency (RF) emissions. In order to provide assistance in determining whether proposed or existing transmitting facilities comply with the new guidelines, the FCC Office of Engineering and Technology revised OET Bulletin 65. The revised version updates limits for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) in terms of electric and magnetic field strength and power density for transmitters operating at frequencies between 300 kHz and 100 GHz. This bulletin was adopted by the FCC in their General Docket No. 97—303 on August 25, 1997. In order to comply with the requirements of the Report and Order, calculations to determine the power flux densities in the far field, near field, and reflector regions of the earth station antenna have been made and are contained in this study. The FCC guidelines incorporate two separate tiers of exposure limits that are dependent on the situation in which the exposure takes place and the status of the individuals who are subject to exposure. The earth station transmitting equipment and antenna are located within a controlled area and not accessible to the general public. Entry is restricted to employees who have been made fully aware of the potential for human exposure and can exercise control over their exposure. Therefore occupational / controlled exposure maximum power density limits are used in this study. The FCC Office of Engineering and Technology suggests a method for calculating the maximum values of the power densities emanating from an aperture antenna in OET bulletin 65. This method is used to determine the power densities associated with the satellite antenna. The Mount Jackson Ka—Band satellite earth station will be equipped with an amplifier having a maximum output of 10 watts. The transmitter will feed a 2.4 meter antenna via a transmission link with no loss. The following calculations will be based on a maximum output power at the antenna flange of 10 watts: Antenna Surface: The maximum power density directly in front of the antenna may be expressed as: 4P surface ~— 4 where: S surface = maximum power density at the antenna surface P = power fed to the antenna A= physical area of the aperture antenna

EXHIBIT A Radiation Hazard Study 2.4 meter Ka—Band Using the parameters for the Mount Jackson antenna: = 4(10 Watts) / x (2.4 meters / 2)" & surface 40 Watts / 1.4 m‘ & surface 8.8 Watts / m &1 surface = 0.9 mW /cm? aA surface Near— Field Region: In the near field of the main beam the power density can reach a maximum before it begins to decrease with distance. The extent of the near field can be described by the following equation: D2 R =L— * 41 where: R,, = extent of near field D =maximum diameter A =wavelength Using the parameters for this antenna: A 0.01 meters @ 30000 MHz R,, (2.4 meters) * / 4(0.01 meters) 11 R nf 5.8 / .04 meters R nf 144 meters 1 The magnitude of the on axis power density varies according to location in the near field. However, the maximum value of the near field, on axis, power density can be expressed by the following equation: _ 167P C :D where: Snf= maximum near field power density n = aperture efficiency P = power fed to the antenna D = antenna diameter Using the parameters for this antenna: 2

The power density in the far field region of the radiation pattern can be estimated by the equation: S, = PG/4mR 2 where: S,,.= power density {(on axis) P = power fed to antenna G = power gain of the antenna in the direction of interest R = distance to the point of interest Using the parameters for this antenna:

The power density at any point in this region is expressed by the equation: 5frea = P/A where: A = Cross section area of feed horn in meter‘ P = Radiated transmitted power in watts At the sub—reflector surface the power density is: Sm = P/A=10 / n (0.1/ 2) = 1455 Watts/meter® $m = 146 mW / cm*

EXHIBIT A Radiation Hazard Study 2.4 meter Ka—Band CONCLUSION The results of the above calculations are summarized in the following table. Region Power Density Remarks Antenna Surface 0.9 mW/cm" Safe Level Main Reflector Sub—reflector Region 146 mW/cm Hazardous Near Field < 144 meters 0.6 mW/cm* Safe Level Far Field > 346 meters 0.2 mW/cm* Safe Level Results of this hazard study indicate that the 5 mW/cm* MPE limit for Occupational/Controlled Exposure in the 1500 — 100,000 MHz range is not exceeded in areas directly in front of the antenna in the far field. The region where this limit may be exceeded will be the region between the reflector and the feed horn. This area is not readily accessible to personnel and whenever personnel are required to work on the radiating or reflecting parts of the antenna structure, the transmitter will be turned off. Signs to this effect will be posted at the transmitter site. Based on this study of predicted radio frequency levels, it is concluded that operation of this satellite earth station meets OET Bulletin 65 maximum permissible exposure limits and that no harmful effects will occur to station personnel or anyone within proximity of the station. Therefore, in accordance with 47 CFR § 1.1307 (b) of the Commission‘s Rules, preparation and submission of an Environmental Assessment (EA) is not required.
