       Re:     Supplement to Hughes Network Systems, LLC Modification Application – SAT-
               MOD-20141210-00127; Call Sign S2834

Dear Ms. Dortch:

         Hughes Network Systems, LLC (“Hughes”) hereby supplements its application – IBFS
File No. SAT-MOD-20141210-00127 to clarify the power flux density (“PFD”) limits provided
in the Schedule S and the Technical Information to Supplement Schedule S (“Technical
Exhibit”) of the application. The PFD calculation in Section A.7 of the Technical Exhibit was
done for an elevation of 90 degrees which corresponds to the lowest spreading loss between the
space station and the surface of the earth. The lowest spreading loss means the highest possible
PFD. This calculation resulted in a maximum PFD of -121.1 dBW/m2/MHz. However, item K
of the S8 tab in the Schedule S shows the maximum PFD at a 25 degree elevation angle which
results in a PFD of -121.8 dBW/m2/MHz. The decreased PFD is a function of having more
spreading loss at a 25 degree elevation angle verses a 90 degree elevation angle.

       Please contact the undersigned with any questions.

                                                    Sincerely,

                                                    /s/ Jennifer A. Manner
