Exhibit B Application Description LightSquared Subsidiary LLC (“LightSquared”) hereby seeks authority to modify its existing satellite carrier monitoring system (“SCMS”). LightSquared is authorized to construct and operate a SCMS consisting of five technically identical, remote transmit/receive earth stations. See FCC File Nos. SES-LIC-20100412-00441, SES-MOD-20100927-01241, and SES- MOD-20110107-00025. The information provided in those applications is incorporated herein. 1 In this application, LightSquared seeks authority to add another remote transmit/receive earth station location in San Diego, California. See Table 1 below. The proposed San Diego station will be technically identical to, and will operate in the same manner as the existing earth stations. 2 LightSquared has also recently decommissioned the facilities located in Eureka, California (SCMS #3) and requests that facility be removed from its authorization. The applicant seeks no other changes to the license. 1 As stated in the original license application, MSAT-1 is a foreign satellite authorized by Industry Canada. LightSquared believes that its response of “No” to Question 42a (i.e. whether the applicant intends to use a non- U.S. licensed satellite to provide service in the United States) is appropriate and correct because LightSquared in this application seeks only to provide monitoring functions with MSAT-1 and will not provide service from MSAT-1 using the SCMS earth stations. In any event, LightSquared submits that no additional information is required in this application to communicate with MSAT-1. The information normally required under 47 C.F.R. § 25.137 and in response to Question 42 for foreign-licensed satellites has already been provided to and approved by the Commission in prior applications and LightSquared incorporates that information by reference. See, e.g., Applications of SatCOM Systems, Inc., et al., 14 FCC Rcd 20798 (1999); see also In the Matter of Motient Services Inc. and TMI Communications and Company, LP, Assignors, and Mobile Satellite Ventures Subsidiary LLC, Assignee, 16 FCC Rcd 20469 (2001); In the Matter of Motient Corporation and Subsidiaries, Transferors, and SkyTerra Communications, Inc., Transferee, 21 FCC Rcd 10198 (2006). 2 Consistent with the information provided in the original license application, see FCC File No. SES-LIC- 20100412-00441, the contact information for the hub station, which serves as the primary control point for each of the remote stations, is: 1601 Telesat Court; Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, K1B 1B9; Tel: 1-8000-216-6720; Fax: 1- 800-455-6543. LightSquared will also maintain control point capabilities in the United States, including at LightSquared’s facility located at 10802 Parkridge Boulevard, Reston, VA 20191; Tel: 1-877-678-2920; Fax: 1- 703-390-2770.
