                             PUBLIC INTEREST STATEMENT

By this Application, Commission consent is sought for the proposed transfer of control of STM
Networks, LLC (“STM Networks”), the licensee of Domestic Fixed Satellite VSAT Network
license E070026 (the “Station”), from STM Group Inc. (“STM”) to Emerging Markets
Communications, LLC (“EMC”).

On July 12, 2013, STM and STM Atlantic N.V., a wholly-owned subsidiary of STM (as
“Sellers”) and EMC and EMC Satcom Technologies, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of EMC
(as “Purchasers”) entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement, providing for, among other
things, the transfer of control of the Station from STM to EMC.

EMC presently is the licensee of certain other transmit/receive and receive-only earth station
authorizations issued by the Commission. The proposed transfer of control of the Station from
STM to EMC will serve the public interest and will cause no public interest harms because it will
enable EMC, as the new owner of STM, to continue to provide satellite services to STM’s
customers and expand service to new customers.
