Federal Communications Commission Washington, D.C. 20554 February 7, 2002 VIA FACSIMILE AND U.S. MAIL John P. Stern, Esq. Loral Space & Communications, Ltd. 1755 Jefferson Davis Highway Suite 1007 Arlington, VA 22202 Re: File Nos. 205/206—SAT—AMEND—95 IBFS File Nos. SAT—AMD—19950929—00157/158 Dear Mr. Stern: On December 20, 2000 the International Bureau (Bureau) authorized Loral CyberStar, Inc. ("Loral") to launch and operate two satellites in the geostationary—satellite orbit to provide fixed satellite service in the Ka—band. Specifically, Loral was authorized to launch and operate Orion F11 at the 67° W.L. orbit location, and to launch and operate Orion F12 at the 126.5° E.L. orbit location.‘ At this time we also assigned implementation milestones for the construction, launch, and operation of the satellite system. The license provides that failure to meet any of the implementation milestones will render the satellite authorization null and void. The first implementation milestone requires Loral to commence construction of its first satellite by December 2001 To satisfy the construction commencement milestone for satellite licenses, the Commission requires the execution of a non—contingent construction contract. The "non—contingent" requirement contemplates that there will be neither significant delays between the execution of the construction contract and the actual commencement of construction, nor conditions precedent to construction." In order for the Commission to determine whether Loral has complied with this milestone condition of its license, please submit a copy of an executed contract verifying that construction has commenced and that Loral‘s satellites will be built within the time frame specified in Loral‘s license. This information must be filed with the Commission‘s Secretary by February 19, 2002, with a hand delivered courtesy copy to Alyssa Roberts of my staff. Failure to provide this information by this ‘ Loral CyberStar, Inc., Application for Authority to Construct, Launch and Operate a Ka—band Satellite System in the Fixed—Satellite Service, Order and Authorization, 15 FCC Red 24602 (Int‘l Bur. 2000). * Id. at 24609. * See PanAmSat Licensee Corp., Application for Authority to Construct, Launch, and Operate a Ka—Band Communications Satellite System in the Fixed—Satellite Service at Orbital Locations 58° W.L. and 125° W.L., Memorandum Opinion and Order, 15 FCC Red 18720 (Int‘l Bur. 2000) aff‘d, 16 FCC Red 11534 (2001).

date shall render Loral‘s Ka—band license null and void. Please contact Alyssa Roberts at (202) 418—7276 if you have any questions. Sincerely, Fow.) Fern Jarmulnek Deputy Chief _ Satellite and Radiocommunication Division ©p+7
