       With today's partial grant, we modify Intelsat LLC's license for the INTELSAT
702 satellite and authorize it, for a period of five years from the date of this grant, to
operate in the following Ku-band frequencies, 11.45 -1 1.7 GHz and 14.25-14.5 GHz, and
to operate its Telemetry, Tracking, Control and Monitoring functions (TTC&M) at the
54.85" E.L. orbital location subject to the following conditions:


              Intelsat LLC's operations shall be on a non-harmful interference basis, Le.,
              Intelsat LLC shall not cause harmful interference to, and shall not claim
              protection from interference caused to it by, any other lawfully operating
              satellites; and

              In the event that any harmful interference as a result of Intelsat LLC's
              operations at the 54.85" E.L. orbital location, Intelsat LLC shall cease
              operations immediately upon notification of such interference and shall
              inform the FCC in writing immediately of such an event; and

              Intelsat LLC shall inform its customers that operations at the 54.85" E.L.
              orbital location are on a non-harmful interference basis and that Intelsat
              LLC must cease operations upon notification of such interference; and

              Intelsat LLC shall maintain full operational control of the INTELSAT 702
              satellite at all times; and

              This authorization is issued on the understanding that Intelsat LLC,
              pursuant to its agreement with the Indian Space Research Organization
              (ISRO) will conform its operations to parameters agreed to in coordination
              agreements between the Administration of India and other
              Administrations. 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, 11.7-11.95 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 dE3WfHz in the downlink
      and the uplink power spectral density in the frequency band 14.25-14.5
      GHz shall not exceed -52.6 dBWfHz; and

14)   In the event that an operator-to-operator arrangement is not reached
      between Intelsat LLC and the operator of the Express AM22 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 1 1.45- 1 1.7 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 sufficient contact with the operator of
      the Express AM22 satellite to ascertain the times, fiequencies 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 from 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

      review under Section 1.1 15,47C.F.R. $6 1.106,1.1 15, may be filed
      within 30 days of the date of the public notice indicating that this action
      was taken.
