ISAT US, Inc.
Request for Extension of Special Temporary Authority
IB File Nos. SES—STA—20150716—00456

                                    Description of STA Request

        ISAT US Inc. ("ISAT US") hereby requests a 30—day special temporary authority ("STA")
extension with respect to its Global Xpress ("GX") network to continue to operate two earth station
user terminal antenna types in each of the following locations: Lino Lakes, Minnesota, Palm Bay,
Florida, and Chantilly, Virginia. The STA extension will facilitate over—the—air site acceptance
testing ("OSAT") of the Inmarsat Global Xpress Ka band network components using the Inmarsat
5 F2 ("I5 F2") satellite located at 55° W.L. The earth stations will continue testing using the same
technical parameters for which they were previously authorized under IB File No. SES—STA
20150716—00456 ("GX OSAT STA") on August 14, 2015. Initial testing has been successful, but
additional testing is required.

          Grant of the requested STA extension will serve the public interest, convenience and
necessity because it will help ensure that the GX network performs according to its design
specifications and will enable Inmarsat to proceed in implementing its ultimate plans to deploy
broadband access service. As detailed in various GX applications and STA requests over the last
several years, facilitating the ultimate availability of broadband access will help satisfy the rapidly
growing enterprise, government and consumer demand for ubiquitous Internet connectivity on
land, at sea, and in the air. The Commission previously has granted STA under similar
circumstances.

          Therefore, ISAT US respectfully requests that the Commission grant its STA extension
request for 30 days, beginning December 25, 201 5.
