                                        File Nos. SAT—AMD—20030606—00112; SAT—MOD—20020329—00245

                                Dear Ms. Dortch:

                                On February 26, 2004, Patricia Paoletta, counsel to New York Satellite (NYS"),
                                had a conversation with Don Abelson, Chief, International Bureau on the status of
                                the milestone extension request of NYS‘ subsidiary, Final Analysis Communication
                                Services, Inc ("FACS"). Ms. Paoletta reiterated NYS* concern about the reduced
                                spectrum that could be licensed to FACS, as a non—geostationary system, underthe
                                Commission‘s new satellite system processing rules, were FACS to lose its existing
                                license and be required to file a new application.

                                As the new processing rules appear to provide, FACS would only be entitled to a
                                third of the spectrum it is currently licensed to use. The FCC originally recognized
                                when it granted FACS its license that it had insufficient spectrum, and that it would
                                be entitled to any spectrum allocated at future World Radiocommunication
                                Conferences (WRC). FACS has expended significant resources in the effort to
                                achieve a global allocation at WRC—03, as well as substantial resources supporting
                                studies to implement the WRC—03 allocation. For these and other unique
                                circumstances justifying an extension in the public interest, NYS reiterates its
                                interest in an extension of FACS‘ milestones.



                                Sincerely,

                                §                           §22z—_
