 2 

 
employed with Company at the end of such three (3) year period; and (iii) receive a pro rata share (based on the closing date of the Transaction) of a grant of 10,000 performance-based
restricted stock units under the Stock Inventive Plan, which shall be subject to a three (3) year pro rata vesting schedule, provided the Company attains the net earnings targets for the applicable period as approved by the Board of Directors
of the Company. The restricted stock units shall include a dividend equivalent feature. Executive shall be eligible to participate in the Company’s Stock Incentive Plan in a manner consistent with other employees of the Executive’s level
in subsequent fiscal years. 
 2.4 Benefit Plans. During the Term, the Executive shall be eligible to participate in either
Executive’s current benefit plans or such medical, health, retirement, welfare and insurance plans generally made available from time to time to similarly-situated executives of the Company, whichever are more favorable. Whichever benefit plans
apply, the Executive’s participation is subject to the plan terms.

Company’s reasonable policies relating to business-related expenses as then in effect from time to time. 
 2.8 Indemnification.
In the event that Executive is made, or threatened to be made, a party to any legal action or proceeding by reason of the fact that Executive is or was a director or officer of the Company or serves or served any affiliate at the request of the
Company, Executive shall be entitled, at all times (including after termination of the Executive for any reason) , to the benefit of the maximum indemnification and advancement of legal fees and expenses available from time to time under the
Company’s organizational documents. 
 ARTICLE III. 

TERMINATION OF SERVICES 

3.1 Termination. Executive’s employment with the Company may be terminated by the Company or the Executive, as applicable, at any
time prior to the end of the Term for any of the following reasons: 
 (a) Cause. The Company may terminate this Agreement and the
Executive’s employment hereunder for Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall 

  
 3 

 
mean: (i) Executive’s intentional act of embezzlement, theft, misappropriation or conversion, or attempted embezzlement, theft, misappropriation, or conversion of any property, funds or
business opportunity of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, or any act constituting a felony (or its equivalent in any non-United States jurisdiction); (ii) any breach by the Executive of the Executive’s covenants under

notice to the Executive describing such breach; (iv) repeated failure or refusal by the Executive without proper cause to perform any reasonable and lawful directive of the Company or the duties of Executive’s employment hereunder which
continues for a period of thirty (30) days following notice thereof by the Company to the Executive, including failure to cooperate with any internal or external investigation of Company’s or Executive’s business practices; and
(v) the Executive’s breach of fiduciary duty or duty of loyalty to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates or any willful misconduct which is materially or substantially injurious to Company. 

(b) Without Cause. The Company may terminate this Agreement without Cause upon thirty (30) days written notice to the Executive.

 (c) For Good Reason. The Executive may terminate this Agreement and Executive’s employment hereunder for Good Reason if such
Good Reason has not been corrected or otherwise eliminated within thirty (30) days after the receipt by the Company of written notice from the Executive describing such Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason”
shall mean: (i) any material diminution of any material duties or responsibilities or authority previously assigned to Executive; (ii) the failure of the Company to perform any of its material obligations hereunder or under the Stock
Incentive Plan including any material reduction in salary or target bonus; (iii) the Company is sold, merged or combined with another entity and the Company fails to obtain an agreement from any successor to the Company to assume and agree to

someone other than the Chief Executive Officer of the Company; or (iv) a relocation of Executive’s principal place of employment by more than thirty (30) miles from Billerica, Massachusetts. 

(d) Without Good Reason. The Executive may terminate this Agreement and Executive’s employment with the Company without Good
Reason upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Company. 
 (e) Death. This Agreement shall automatically terminate on

 (f) Disability. Upon the failure of the Executive to render services to the Company for a continuous
period of six (6) months because of the Executive’s physical or mental disability or illness, the Company may terminate this Agreement and the Executive’s employment hereunder, provided such termination does not otherwise violate
applicable law. If there should be a dispute between the parties as to the Executive’s physical or mental disability, such dispute shall be settled by the opinion of an impartial reputable physician agreed upon for such purpose by the parties
or their representatives. The certificate of such physician as to the matter in dispute shall be final and binding on the parties. 

  
 4 

 3.2 Payment on Termination with Cause, Without Good Reason, Death or Disability. In the
event that Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company with Cause, by the Executive without Good Reason, or by Executive’s Death or Disability, Executive shall be entitled to receive the following payments less any required
withholdings not later than five (5) business days after the date of termination: 
 (a) payment of any earned but unpaid salary
accrued through and including the date of termination; 
 (b) payment of accrued, but unused, vacation time; 

(c) payment of any earned but unpaid bonus amount; and 

(d) reimbursement of any unreimbursed business expenses incurred prior to the date of termination. 

3.3 Payment on Termination without Cause or for Good Reason. Subject to the Executive’s continuing compliance with the covenants
contained in Article IV of this Agreement (the “Covenants”), in the event that the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason other than for Good Reason as defined in
Section 3.1(c)(iii), then the Executive shall be entitled to receive the following less any required withholdings following the effective date of the Release referenced below: 

(a) payment of any earned, but unpaid salary accrued through and including the date of termination; 

(b) a severance payment in the amount of one (1) year of base salary, paid on Company’s normal payroll dates; 

(c) reimbursement for the total cost of continuation of health coverage (medical, dental, vision) pursuant to Executive’s election under
the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), ceasing at the earlier of the end of the one year severance period, or upon Executive becoming eligible for coverage under a health, dental or vision
insurance plan of a subsequent employer; 
 (d) payment of accrued, but unused, vacation time; 

(e) payment of any earned but unpaid bonus amount; and 

(f) reimbursement of any unreimbursed business expenses incurred prior to the date of termination. 

In the event that the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Executive for Good Reason as defined in Section 3.1(c)(iii) (in connection with a
“change in control event” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code), then the Executive shall be entitled to receive the following less any required withholdings following the effective date of the Release referenced below: 

  
 5 

 (a) payment of a lump sum cash payment equal to two (2) times the full amount of the
Executive’s target bonus (as determined by the Company’s Officers’ Performance Compensation Plan, Management incentive program or similar plan, as the case may be) for the fiscal year of the Company in which the termination occurs
within thirty (30) calendar days after the date on which the termination occurs; 
 (b) payment of a lump sum cash payment equal to
two (2) times the Executive’s annual base salary at the rate in effect immediately prior to the termination within thirty (30) calendar days after the date on which the termination occurs; 

(c) payment of accrued, but unused, vacation time; 

(d) reimbursement of any unreimbursed business expenses incurred prior to the date of termination; and 

(e) reimbursement for the total cost of continuation of health coverage (medical, dental, vision) pursuant to Executive’s election under
the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), ceasing at the earlier of the end of the eighteen (18) month COBRA period, or upon Executive becoming eligible for coverage under a health,
dental or vision insurance plan of a subsequent employer. 
 Payment of severance referenced in Section 3.3(b) above is conditional upon Executive
executing and delivering to the Company, and not revoking it, a general release of all claims Executive may have against the Company and its owners, directors, and employees in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Executive and consistent with
other releases that the Company has previously asked other executives of the Company to sign in connection with receiving payments upon termination of employment (“Release”), at the time required by the Company and is subject to
Executive’s continuing compliance with the covenants contained in Article IV of this Agreement. Such Release must be executed and become non-revocable within 60 days of the date of termination. Severance shall be paid or commence to be paid
within 60 days of the date of termination, following the effectiveness of the Release, but if such 60-day period begins in one calendar year and ends in the following calendar year, severance shall be paid or commence to be paid in the second
calendar year. 
 3.4 Parachute Payment. In the event that the severance and other benefits provided for in this Agreement or
otherwise payable to Executive (i) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise
Tax”), then Executive’s benefits under this Agreement shall be either 
 (i) delivered in full, or 

(ii) delivered as to such lesser extent which would result in no portion of such benefits being subject to the Excise Tax,
whichever of the foregoing amounts, 

  
 6 

 
taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the Excise Tax, results in the receipt by Executive on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of benefits,
notwithstanding that all or some portion of such benefits may be taxable under Section 4999 of the Code. If a reduction in severance and other benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that benefits are delivered to a
lesser extent, payments to Executive under this Agreement which do not constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A shall be reduced first, and other payments to Executive shall then be reduced in the following order:
reduction of cash payments, cancellation of equity awards granted within the twelve (12) month period prior to a “change in control” (as determined under Code Section 280G) that are deemed to have been granted contingent upon the
change in control (as determined under Code Section 280G), cancellation of accelerated vesting of equity awards, reduction of employee benefits. 

Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this Section shall be made in writing by the Company’s
independent public accountants (the “Accountants”), whose determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Executive and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section, the
Accountants may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Section 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and Executive shall
furnish to the Accountants such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section. The Company shall bear all costs the Accountants may reasonably incur in connection with any
calculations contemplated by this Section. 
 3.5 Section 409A. (a) It is the intention of the parties that the conditions
of Section 3.3 constitute a “substantial risk of forfeiture” within the meaning of the Treasury Regulations under Section 409A of the Code and that the payments pursuant to Sections 3.2 and 3.3 above meet the “short-term
deferral” exception or the “separation pay plan” exception under such Treasury Regulations, and the parties shall interpret this Agreement accordingly. 

(b) A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of this Article III unless such termination of employment
is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. To the extent that the Executive is a “specified employee” as of the Executive’s separation from service, and any payments payable
hereunder upon the Executive’s separation from service would be considered deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, such amounts will not be paid until the earlier of six months and one day following the separation from
service or upon the Executive’s death. 
 (c) Each payment pursuant to this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for
purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). 
 (d) With regard to any provision of this Agreement that provides for
reimbursement of expenses or in-kind benefits that are subject to Section 409A of the Code, the following conditions apply: (i) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind

  
 7 

 
benefits provided, during any calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, in any other calendar year (provided this condition shall not
apply to an arrangement providing for the reimbursement of expenses referred to in Section 105(b) of the Code solely because the arrangement provides for a limit on the amount of expenses that may be reimbursed under such arrangement over some
or all of the period in which the reimbursement arrangement remains in effect), (ii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense is made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred,
and (iii) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

Additional Service Specifications are contained in Attachment A to this Service Order. 

 

	D.	Service Term; Fees. 

 Commencement Date: The Commencement Date will be the
commercial operation date of the Service, as declared by SES after the successful launch, testing, and in-orbit deployment of the Satellite at the Orbital Location. SES will keep Customer reasonably apprised on the status of the satellite including
the estimated Commencement Date and provide notice to the Customer of the actual date that the satellite is available for commercial operation. 

End Date: On the date that is the tenth (10th) anniversary of the
Commencement Date. 
 Monthly Service Fee: The monthly Service Fee will be based on the applicable rate set forth in Attachment
B to this Service Order. Customer shall make each and every payment monthly in advance, on or before the last business day of the month preceding the month in which Service is provided, and all such payments shall be made without offset,
withholding or deduction of any kind. 
 [***] 

The Service Fee payment conditions and Security have been agreed between the Parties based on Customer’s credit rating at the time of
execution of this Service Order. Delays in the fulfillment of Customer’s obligations (including required payments due upon execution) may cause delays in the commencement of Service, but will not delay the Commencement Date for payment
purposes. 
  

	E.	Other Applicable Terms and Conditions. 

 Capture Team. In a side letter being
entered into concurrently with the execution of this Service Order, each Party is designating a minimum of three (3) contacts each to be part of a team (the “Capture Team”) which will coordinate items of mutual interest pertaining to
the Service, including capacity requirements and availability, satellite topology and restoration capability with respect to beams used or considered for the Service, technical and operational implementation, issue resolution, and SES’s nominal
fleet deployment plans to replace the Satellite, whether upon a launch failure, at end of life or otherwise. One or more of a Party’s designated contacts may be changed upon notice to the other Party and such notice will designate a replacement
person at an equivalent level. The Capture Team shall meet at least two (2) times per calendar year or as otherwise agreed by the Parties, and shall meet reasonably promptly upon the request of either Party. 

Confirmed Outage: SES will provide Customer with a [***] plan within [***] of an unresolved Confirmed Outage.[***]. The rights under
this paragraph are in addition to the Parties’ termination rights under Subsection 8(a) of the MSA.

[***] 
 Teleport Services:
SES agrees to provide teleport services reasonably sufficient to support the Service. [***]. In the negotiation of the definitive agreement for such teleport services, the Parties agree to discuss, in good faith, the possible mitigation of
additional costs and expenses, provided that Customer understands and agrees that (a) such mitigation efforts may not be successful, and (b) the absence of mitigation efforts will not excuse the execution of the definitive agreements for
teleport services. The agreement between the Parties regarding teleport services will be set forth in a separate Service Order, under the terms and conditions of the MSA and consistent with this paragraph. If the Parties cannot agree on terms other
than those set forth in this paragraph, such terms will be generally consistent with existing terms and conditions between the Parties with respect to teleport services. 

Health Reports: SES will provide Customer with a report, no less frequently than each calendar quarter during the Service Term, on the
health status of the Satellite, highlighting any health status changes from the prior quarterly report. 
 [***] 

[***] 
 [***] 

Service Order 103737-0000: Within thirty (30) Days of countersignature of this Service Order or the SES-15 Service Order,
whichever is later, the Parties will amend Service Order 103737-0000, dated 20 January 2016, under which Customer may elect to [***]. The amendment will be effective as of the date of countersignature of this Service Order or the SES-15 Service
Order, whichever is later. 
 [***]. 

Licensing and Coordination:[***] 

Acknowledgments: Customer acknowledges that the Satellite has not been launched at the time of execution of this Service Order. SES
does not assume any liability or obligation in the event the commencement of the Service is for any reason delayed or modified or does not occur. Customer acknowledges and agrees that it shall not be entitled to seek specific performance to compel
SES to cause any satellite (whether or not in orbit), including SES-15, to be constructed, launched or made commercially operational at any orbital location. The Parties acknowledge that (i) the Satellite is a SES Global Fleet Satellite and the
provisions of Appendix C (Additional Terms and Definitions for North American Fleet Satellites) of the MSA do not apply to this Service Order; (ii) the provisions in Section 1 (Service Orders) of the MSA regarding third party terms and
conditions are not applicable to this Service Order (except to the extent third party teleport services are contracted as contemplated herein); and (iii) for purposes of this Service Order, the term “available” and
“availability” mean as determined by SES in its sole discretion. 
 Conditions: This Agreement is subject to the
Parties’ execution of the SES-15 Service Order, on or before the execution date of this Service Order, failing which this Agreement shall be void ab initio and the Parties shall have no further obligations or liabilities to each other
under this Agreement. 
 The services ordered pursuant to this Service Order are provided subject to the terms and conditions described in
the MSA, including the applicable appendices attached thereto. Termination of the MSA will not affect the performance obligations of the Parties with respect to this Service Order or the applicability of the terms and conditions set forth in the MSA
to this Service Order.
