Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995

This document may contain statements that are forward looking, as
that term is defined by the Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are based on
managements beliefs, as well as assumptions made by, and
information currently available to, management. When used in this
report, the words believe, anticipate, estimate, expect, intend,
project, plans, and similar expressions and the use of future
dates are intended to identify forward looking statements.
Although management believes that the expectations reflected in
these forward looking statements are reasonable, it can give no
assurance that these expectations will prove to have been
correct. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any
forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made.
These statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties, and
assumptions. See Risk Factors in EchoStars Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) and in the other
documents EchoStar file with the SEC from time to time. The
forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made, and
EchoStar expressly disclaims any obligation to update these
forward-looking statements.
