Intelsat License LLC— Inc. is granted a special temporary authority (STA) for 30 days, commencing
December 22, 2016, to use its Riverside, CA earth station to provide launch and early orbit phase
("LEOP") services for the EchoStar—21 satellite as it proceeds to its 10.25° E.L. orbital location on center
frequencies 27.997 GHz and 27.999 GHz (LHCP) (Earth—to—space) and 18.697 GHz and 18.699 GHz (RHCP)
{space—to—Earth) under the following conditions:



1.    Operations will not exceed the operational power levels and parameters requested and
coordinated.



2.     The LEOP operations must be coordinated with all operators of satellites that use the same
frequency bands and are in the LEOP path. All operators of satellites in that path will be provided with
an emergency phone number where the licensee can be reached in the event that harmful interference
occurs. Currently the 24X7 contact information for the EchoStar—21 satellite LEOP mission is as follows:
Ph.:(703) 559—7701 ~East Coast operations Center(primary); (310) 525—5591 —West Coast Operations
Center (back—up). Requests to speak with harry Burnham or Kevin Bell.



3.     Operations, shall not cause harmful interference to, and shall not claim protection from
interference caused to it by any other lawfully operating station and it shall cease transmission(s)
immediately upon notice of such interference and notify the FCC in writing.



4.     Transmitter(s) must be turned off during antenna maintenance to ensure compliance with the
FCC—specified safety guidelines for human exposure to radiofrequency radiation in the region between
the antenna feed and the reflector. Appropriate measure must also be taken to restrict access to other
regions in which the earth station‘s power flux density levels exceed the specified guidelines.


$.     Any action taken or expense incurred as a result of operations pursuant to this STA is solely at
Intelsat Inc‘s risk.



This action is issued pursuant to Section 0.261 of the Commission‘s rules on delegated authority, 47
