                    Description of Operations and Public Interest Statement

       Pursuant to 47 CFR 25.120 of the Commission’s Rules, Lockheed Martin Corporation
(“Lockheed Martin”) hereby requests Special Temporary Authority (“STA”) for a period of one
hundred eighty (180) days to operate its Carpentersville, New Jersey fixed earth station (Call
Sign E754l) to provide telemetry, tracking, and control (“TT&C”) functions during the Electric
Orbit Raising (“FOR”) period of operation, ranging, and electric propulsion monitoring for the
HellasSat 4/ SaudiGeoSat 1 (“HS4”) satellite, which Lockheed Martin has manufactured.

       HS4 is destined for in-service operation at 39.0° E.L., and is currently scheduled for
launch in mid-January 2019, aboard an Ariane 5 ECA rocket, from Guiana Space Center.

         1.     Requested STA Operations

        Lockheed Martin requested authority to begin testing and calibrating the subject antennas
on December 3, 2018, given the unique communications configuration of the ground stations
supporting launch.’ Lockheed Martin is requesting herein extension of that initial grant for an
additional one hundred eighty (180) days to cover the period required to conduct EOR and the
in-orbit testing being conducted by the launch provider. The all-electric propulsion system of
HS4 requires extended support for the completion of the mission.

         Overall, the proposed TT&C operations in support of the HS4 launch will be on a strictly
non-harmful interference, non-protected basis. When no commands are being sent, a CW carrier
that is within the emission of the licensed operation would be present. In the case of an anomaly,
extraordinary measures, such as increasing power, may be necessary; if such measures are
required during this STA period, Lockheed Martin will notify the FCC within seven (7) business
days that such measures were needed.

        Lockheed Martin is submitting herewith a Frequency Coordination and Interference
Analysis Report prepared by Comsearch. Lockheed Martin notes that the Comsearch Report has
been modified from the Report submitted with the initial application to reflect an extended
coordination term accounting for the six-month grant contemplated by this extension request
and, to the extent necessary, any future extension requests, given the lengthy period of EOR
operations.

        Lockheed Martin designates Michael Usarzewicz to be the contact person that will be
available whenever transmission to SES-12 is to occur through the subject earth station. Mr.
Usarzewicz can be reached at the following phone numbers:

       (609) 865-2658 (cellular)
       (908) 859-4050 (earth station desk)

       2. Grant of the Requested Authority Will Serve the Public Interest

        Lockheed Martin believes that the limited operations it proposes in support of the launch
of the HS4 satellite serve the public interest. Lockheed Martin understands that the HS4 satellite
will provide to provide in-orbit backup, redundancy services for HellasSat 4 and further
expansion over Europe and Southern Africa, through increased Ku-band capacity. Lockheed
Martin’s Carpentersville earth station facility will be part of a global network of control and
ranging facilities that will be used solely to position the satellite as it progresses from transfer
orbit to its final location and to calibrate electric propulsion. No end user service will be
provided within the United States at any time. The safe and orderly use of the entire
geostationary orbital resource and protection of the hundreds of satellites licensed by the U.S.
and other countries that operate there depends in no small part on ensuring that the HS4 satellite
is controlled while over North America en route to its fmal geostationary orbital position. In this
regard, Lockheed Martin’s earth station thus will serve a vital function.

       Lockheed Martin requests authority to operate the subject earth station antennas to
