As the United States remains the licensing authority, responsibility for both compliance with and enforcing compliance with those agreements is a matter which would arise under private law; and This authorization is also issued on the understanding that, in regards to filings with the ITU, the Administration of India is not acting pursuant to Article 9.1 of the Radio Regulation, on behalf of the United States Administration; and

This authorization is also issued on the understanding that the Federal Communications Commission remains the licensing administration, for purposes of ITU Radio Regulation 18.1, for the INTELSAT 702 satellite, and that its operations are pursuant to ITU Radio Regulation 4.4; and Intelsat LLC shall prepare and submit to the Federal Communications Commission, within fifteen days following grant of this authorization, the necessary materials for submission to the ITU, pursuant to Article 8.4 of the Radio Regulations, in connection with the operations of the INTELSAT 702 satellite at the 54.85" E.L. orbital location; and 9) This authorization is issued on the understanding that this grant is not an approval of any specific agreement entered into by Intelsat LLC, its subsidiaries, and affiliates, nor of any specific provision of any such agreement, concerning operation of the Intelsat 702 satellite, nor is it an approval of an agreement concerning any related matter, nor of any specific provision of any such agreement concerning any related matter; and This authorization is issued on the understanding that this grant, and previous grants for testing at the 54.85" E.L. orbital location, do not in any way express a view concerning, or agreement as to, the validity or lack of validity of any ITU filing at or within the vicinity of the 54.85" E.L. orbital location; and In connection with the provision of service in any particular country, Intelsat LLC is obliged to comply with the applicable laws, regulations, rules, and licensing procedures of that country; and Intelsat LLC is not authorized to operate in the frequency bands: 3700- 4200 MHz, 5925-6425 MHz, 10.95-11.2 GHz, 11.7-1 1.95 GHz, 12.5- 12.75 GHz and 14.0-14.25 GHz except for the INTELSAT 702 C-band TTC&M functions, until submission of additional technical information to demonstrate compatible operation with adjacent satellites and subsequent FCC authorization of such operations; and 13) The EIRP density in the frequency band 11.45-11.7 GHz fkom the INTELSAT 702 satellite shall not exceed -33.8 dBW/Hz in the downlink and the uplink power spectral density in the fkequency band 14.25-14.5 GHz shall not exceed -52.6 dBW/Hz; and 14) In the event that an operator-to-operator arrangement is not reached between Intelsat LLC and the operator of the Express A M 2 2 satellite, and if, the Express AM22 satellite utilizes either the emission, 30M037W or the emission 2M40G7W into antenna diameters of less than 1.2 meters

within a beam which overlaps the coverage area of the INTELSAT 702 satellite beam, in the 11.45 - 11.7 GHz frequency band, then Intelsat shall lower the EIRP density of its carrier to -38.8 dBW/Hz in the downlink; and 15) Intelsat LLC shall either establish suflicient contact with the operator of the Express AM22 satellite to ascertain the times, frequencies and types of emissions to be used for the Express AM22’s operations, or establish a monitoring function to determine such; and 16) Intelsat LLC is afforded thirty days fiom the date of release of this grant and authorization to decline this authorization as conditioned. Failure to respond within this period will constitute formal acceptance of the authorization as conditioned; and 17) This Grant is issued pursuant to Section 0.261 of the Commission’s rules on delegated authority, 47 C.F.R. 6 0.261 and is effective February 23, 2004.
