Court Rules in Favor of EchoStar; Satellite TV Company Wins $5.5 Million Judgment in Retailer Fraud Case ENGLEWOOD, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 6, 2003--U.S. District Court Judge Edward Nottingham in Denver has awarded EchoStar Communications Corp. $5.5 million in a case against a former retailer that conducted itself fraudulently. EchoStar attorneys argued that Sky Cable defrauded EchoStar, breached their contract, set up false accounts, and engaged in a form of piracy called account-packing. The court ruled that Sky Cable of Pennsylvania improperly sold EchoStar's DISH Network satellite TV services and equipment, in conflict with a retailer agreement that Sky Cable signed with EchoStar in 1997 and re-executed in 1999. Jim DeFranco, executive vice president of EchoStar, said he was pleased with the verdict. "EchoStar has thousands of legitimate retailers whose loyalty has helped make DISH Network a leader in the subscription TV industry," said DeFranco. "We won't stand by idly while any member of that group attempts to undermine the system that has been so successful for so many people." Sky Cable, doing business as Sky Marketing, was prohibited from acting as a distributor and selling the services and equipment to any customer other than a residential end-user. In violation of the agreement, Sky Marketing, owned by Alex Shiriaev, sold DISH Network systems to many retailers who planned to resell those systems themselves.

The History of the Development of British Satellite Broadcasting Policy, 1977-1992
THE HISTORY OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF BRITISH SATELLITE BROADCASTING POLICY, 1977-1992 Windsor John Holden —......., Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of PhD University of Leeds, Institute of Communications Studies July, 1998 The candidate confirms that the work submitted is his own and that appropriate credit has been given where reference has been made to the work of others ABSTRACT This thesis traces the development of British satellite broadcasting policy, from the early proposals drawn up by the Home Office following the UK's allocation of five direct broadcast by satellite (DBS) frequencies at the 1977 World Administrative Radio Conference (WARC), through the successive, abortive DBS initiatives of the BBC and the "Club of 21", to the short-lived service provided by British Satellite Broadcasting (BSB). It also details at length the history of Sky Television, an organisation that operated beyond the parameters of existing legislation, which successfully competed (and merged) with BSB, and which shaped the way in which policy was developed. It contends that throughout the 1980s satellite broadcasting policy ceased to drive and became driven, and that the failure of policy-making in this time can be ascribed to conflict on ideological, governmental and organisational levels. Finally, it considers the impact that satellite broadcasting has had upon the British broadcasting structure as a whole. 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract i Contents ii Acknowledgements 1 INTRODUCTION 3 British broadcasting policy - a brief history

Pay TV penetration will stay at around 69%. Asia Pacific pay TV subscribers by country (mil) 800.0 700.0 600.0 500.0 400.0 300.0 200.0 100.0 0.0 2019 2020 2025 Others 70.5 72.3 80.9 Japan 17.4 17.6 17.7 Indonesia 11.2 13.5 18.5 S Korea 20.4 20.3 20.2 India 158.8 161.1 183.1 China 353.4 357.2 356.0 Source: Digital TV Research Ltd China and India together will account for 80% of the region’s 676 million pay TV subscribers by 2025. India will add 24 million pay TV subscribers over the next five years. However, China will peak in 2021 with a slow decline thereafter. OTT penetration and competition will remain much higher in China than in India. Simon Murray, Principal Analyst at Digital TV Research, said: “Much of this subscriber growth is down to the number of TV households increasing by 65 million between 2019 and 2025 to 978 million as populations rise and disposable income climbs. The region’s population is 4 billion – more than half of the world’s total.” For more information on the Asia Pacific OTT TV and Video Forecasts report, please contact: Simon Murray, [email protected], Tel: +44 20 8248 5051 Asia Pacific Pay TV Forecasts Table of Contents Published in March 2020, this 198-page PDF, PowerPoint and excel report comes in three parts: • Outlook: Forecasts for 22 countries in a 52-page PowerPoint document full of charts, graphs and bullet points; • Excel workbook covering each year from 2010 to 2025 for 22 countries by household penetration, by pay TV subscribers, by pay TV revenues and by major operator.
