                               INTERNATIONAL BUREAU INFORMATION

      IMPLEMENTATION OF ITU COST RECOVERY CHARGES FOR
                SATELLITE NETWORK FILINGS


        This Public Notice establishes the information needed for the implementation of the International
Telecommunication Union (ITU) satellite cost recovery program, as modified by the recent meeting of
the ITU Council (see http://www.itu.int/itudoc/gs/council/c01/docs/100.html).

        Satellite filings subject to ITU cost recovery charges include certain advance publication
submissions, requests for coordination or agreement (Articles S9 and S11 of the Radio Regulations), and
requests for modification of the space service plans contained in Appendices S30, S30A, and S30B of the
Radio Regulations that were received by the ITU after November 7, 1998. Advance publication filings
not subject to coordination procedures (generally non-geosynchronous orbit (NGSO) systems) that were
received by the ITU after November 7, 1998 are also subject to cost recovery.

         The applicant, licensee, or other entity associated with any ITU satellite filing that the
International Bureau files on its behalf is unconditionally responsible for paying these fees in a timely
fashion directly to the ITU. The FCC itself will not be responsible for these fees, and will require any
entity associated with an ITU filing to certify that it unconditionally accepts all cost recovery
responsibilities. Payment of these fees by the applicant, licensee, or other entity to the ITU grants no
right to the orbit or spectrum identified in the ITU filing.

          In order for the International Bureau to assist the ITU in implementing its cost recovery system,
all satellite entities that have network filings subject to the ITU cost recovery charges described above
must provide to the Bureau, within 30 days of this Public Notice, contact information for the entity
responsible for payment of the ITU charges. This information must include: (1) name of contact, (2)
name of company and office, (3) address, (4) e-mail address, (5) telephone number, and (6) fax number.
The point of contact may be a party other than the applicant or licensee, acting pursuant to an agreement
between the applicant or licensee and the third party in which the third party assumes responsibility for
payment of these fees. Whether or not an applicant or licensee identifies another entity as the point of
contact for payment of the charges, the applicant or licensee may be held responsible for all fees and
costs.


         The International Bureau and the ITU Radiocommunication Bureau will use this contact
information to ensure that the invoice is sent to the appropriate satellite network operator or its agent. In
addition to providing this contact information for all filings described above, applicants should note that
contact information must also accompany all relevant future filings. The International Bureau will submit
to the ITU the filings based on technical parameters contained in an application before the Commission
only after the International Bureau receives certification of unconditional acceptance of all cost recovery
responsibilities.

       Dear Ms. Garfield,

       On December 18,2003, SES Americom filed an application for a replacement satellite at
       172 E.L.’ The satellite’s commercial name is “AMC-23.” Associated with the space
       station application, SES Americom requests that the FCC submit advance publication,
       and subsequently coordination and notification information, for ITU frequency
       coordination and notification of the space station. From communication with FCC staff,
       SES Americom understands that this ITU filing will be called “USASAT-60A.”

       SES Americom unconditionally accepts all cost recovery responsibilities associated with
       ITU filings for USASAT-60A at 172 E.L. Please address all correspondence relating to
       this obligation to me as follows:
