         Re:      Notice of Ex Parte Meeting
                  See File Nos. listed in the attached Exhibit A

Dear Ms. Dortch:

In connection with the 17/24 GHz BSS applications listed in the attached Exhibit A,
Stacy Fuller and Bill Wiltshire on behalf of DIRECTV Enterprises LLC
(“DIRECTV”), Susan Crandall on behalf of Intelsat North America LLC (“Intelsat”),
and Tony Lin on behalf of Pegasus Development DBS Corporation (“Pegasus” and
together with DIRECTV and Intelsat, the “Parties”) met on September 9,2008 with
Lisa Cacciatore, Stephen Duall, Chip Fleming, Diane Garfield, Andrea Kelly, Kal
Krautkramer, Kathyrn Medley, Robert Nelson, and Alyssa Roberts, all of the
International Bureau (“Bureau”). The Parties stated that they intended to file one or
more applications with the Bureau to rationalize the licensing of their pending 17/24
GHz BSS applications at certain orbital locations and maximize the operational
capabilities of the proposed systems at those locations. The Parties asked the Bureau
to clarify in the context of the application(s) to be filed that the FCC’s rules would not
require a licensee to post or maintain more than a single $3 million bond for its 17/24
GHz BSS satellite system at any one orbital location.
