Explanation of Responses:

1. On May 30, 2014, Charles W. Ergen established a Grantor Retained Annuity Trust ("GRAT"), the Ergen Three-Year 2014 SATS GRAT (the "2014 GRAT"), and contributed 10,000,000 Class B shares to the 2014 GRAT. The 2014 GRAT may have elected to convert any or all of its Class B shares into an equal number of Class A shares at any time for no additional consideration.

2. Pursuant to the terms of the 2014 GRAT, all of the remaining 2,680,131 Class B shares were distributed as an annuity to Mr. Ergen on May 30, 2017 and the 2014 GRAT expired in accordance with its terms.

3. There is no formal agreement to vote or dispose of the shares owned by each GRAT in a particular manner, except that the trust agreement for each GRAT contains an irrevocable provision that provides that the trustee will not dispose of any shares of the issuer held by the GRAT unless a Change of Control Event (as defined in Item 6 of the GRATs' Schedule 13D/A filed on May 31, 2017) occurs. The dispositive and voting power of the shares held by each of the GRATs is independent of each other, except to the extent that Mr. William R. Gouger is the trustee of each of the GRATs and in that respect is able to control the disposition and voting of the shares of Class B Common Stock owned by each such GRAT.

4. These securities are owned directly by the 2014 GRAT.

5. On November 30, 2015, Mr. Ergen established the Ergen Three-Year 2015 SATS GRAT (the "2015 GRAT") and contributed a total of 9,000,000 Class B shares to such trust. The 2015 GRAT may elect to convert any or all of its Class B shares into an equal number of Class A shares at any time for no additional consideration.

6. These securities are owned directly by the 2015 GRAT.
