Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In connection with the Spin-off, we entered into a separation agreement with EchoStar, which provides, among other
things, for the division of certain liabilities, including liabilities resulting from litigation. Under the terms of the
separation agreement, EchoStar has assumed certain liabilities that relate to its business including certain designated
liabilities for acts or omissions prior to the Spin-off. Certain specific provisions govern intellectual property related
claims under which, generally, EchoStar will only be liable for its acts or omissions following the Spin-off and we
will indemnify EchoStar for any liabilities or damages resulting from intellectual property claims relating to the
period prior to the Spin-off as well as our acts or omissions following the Spin-off.
