Accordingly, Intelsat is authorized to conduct telemetry, tracking, and telecommand operations necessary to relocate Galaxy 11 from its currently assigned 32.8° E.L. orbital location to the 55.5º W.L. orbital location, and to maintain Galaxy 11 at the 55.5º W.L. orbital location, using the following center frequencies: 11.701 GHz and 11.702 GHz (space-to-Earth), 14.0005 GHz and 14.4985 GHz (Earth-to-space). Intelsat is also authorized to provide fixed-satellite service via Galaxy 11 at the 55.5º W.L. orbital location in the 3700-4200 MHz (space-to-Earth), 5925-6425 MHz (Earth-to-space), 10.95-11.20 GHz (space-to-Earth), 11.7-12.2 GHz (space-to-Earth), and 13.75-14.50 GHz (Earth-to-space) frequency bands. SAT-MOD-20101215-00261 E S2134 SES Americom, Inc. Modification 03/08/2011 - 03/05/2012 Grant of Authority Effective Date: 03/08/2011 Nature of Service: Direct to Home Fixed Satellite, Fixed Satellite Service On March 8, 2011, the Satellite Division granted, with conditions, the request of SES Americom, Inc., to modify the authorization of its fixed-satellite service space station, AMC-2, operating at the 78.95° W.L. orbital location. Accordingly, SES is authorized to operate the C-band frequencies of AMC-2 (3700-4200 MHz and 5925-6425 MHz), as well as the telemetry, tracking, and telecommand frequencies of 3700.5 MHz, 4199.5 MHz, 6423 MHz, and 12198 MHz, using polarizations opposite of those previously authorized. AMC-2 is also authorized to increase the peak equivalent isotropic radiated power for the C-band payload from 42.0 dBW to 42.1dBW. Page 1 of 2

SAT-MOD-20101216-00262 E S2118 XM Radio Inc. Modification 03/08/2011 - 05/31/2014 Grant of Authority Effective Date: 03/08/2011 Nature of Service: Satellite Digital Audio Radio Service On March 8, 2011, the Satellite Policy Branch granted, subject to conditions, the application of XM Radio Inc. to modify its authorization to operate the Satellite Digital Audio Radio Service (SDARS) satellite, XM-1. Accordingly, XM Radio is authorized to conduct Telemetry, Tracking, and Telecommand (TT&C) operations in the 2332.5-2345 MHz and 7025-7075 MHz frequency bands necessary to relocate the XM-1 space station from its current orbital position of 85.15° W.L. to the 115.25° W.L. orbital location and to maintain the XM-1 space station at that location. XM Radio is also authorized to operate the XM-1 satellite at the 115.25° W.L. orbital location as a non-transmitting (except for telemetry transmissions in the 2332.5-2345 MHz frequency band) in-orbit spare for the duration of the license term of the satellite. XM Radio is authorized to activate the communications payloads of XM-1 in the 2332.5-2345 MHz frequency band in the event of a service outage of the XM-3 (Call Sign S2617) or XM-4 (Call Sign S2616) satellites. SAT-MOD-20101216-00263 E S2617 XM Radio Inc. Modification 03/08/2011 - 04/20/2013 Grant of Authority Effective Date: 03/08/2011 Nature of Service: Satellite Digital Audio Radio Service On March 8, 2011, the Satellite Division granted, with conditions, the application of XM Radio Inc. to modify its authorization to operate the Satellite Digital Audio Radio Service (SDARS) space station, XM-3, at the 85.15° W.L. orbital location using the 2332.5-2345 MHz and 7025-7075 MHz frequency bands. In addition, XM Radio is authorized to conduct telemetry, tracking, and telecommand operations in the 2332.5-2345 MHz and 7025-7075 MHz frequency bands necessary to relocate the XM-3 space station from the 85.083° W.L. orbital location to the 85.15° W.L. orbital location and to maintain the XM-3 space station at 85.15° W.L. SAT-MOD-20101216-00264 E S2786 XM Radio Inc. Modification 03/08/2011 - 12/02/2018 Grant of Authority Effective Date: 03/08/2011 Nature of Service: Satellite Digital Audio Radio Service On March 8, 2011, the Satellite Policy Branch granted, subject to conditions, the application of XM Radio Inc. to modify its authorization to operate the Satellite Digital Audio Radio Service (SDARS) satellite, XM-5. Specifically, XM Radio is authorized to operate the XM-5 satellite at the 85.15° W.L. orbital location as a non-transmitting (except for Telemetry, Tracking, and Telecommand operations in the 2320-2345 MHz and 7025-7075 MHz frequency bands) in-orbit spare for the duration of the license term of the satellite.
