Accordingly, Intelsat North America is AUTHORIZED to relocate the Intelsat Americas—5 (IA—5) satellite from its current location at 97° W.L. to 76.70° W.L., upon the launch of the Intelsat Americas—9 (IA—9) satellite into the 97° W.L. orbital location and completion of traffic transfer from IA—5 to IA—9. Intelsat North America is authorized to operate the IA—5 satellite in the C—band (5925—6425 MHz and 3700—4200 MHz ) and Ku—band (14.0—14.5 GHz and 11.7—12.2 GHz ) frequencies at the 76.70° W.L. orbital location, in accordance with the terms, conditions, and technical specifications set forth in its applications, this Attachment and the Federal Communication Commission‘s (Commission) Rules. 1. During the drift of the IA—5 satellite from 97° W.L. to 76.70° W.L., Intelsat North America shall not operate the communications payload on the satellite. Intelsat North America shall coordinate all of its Tracking, Telemetry, Command & Monitoring (TTC&M) operations with in—orbit geostationary satellites to ensure that no unacceptable interference results from IA—5‘s TTC&M operations during its drift from 97° W.L. to 76.70° W.L. During the drift, no harmful interference shall be caused by the IA—5 satellite to any other lawfully operating in—orbit satellite, and operations of the IA—5 satellite shall cease immediately upon notification of such interference. During the drift, Intelsat North America is required to accept interference from other lawfully operating in—orbit satellites. Intelsat North America shall operate the IA—5 satellite at the 76.70° W.L orbital location in a manner that does not exceed the limits in any existing coordination agreements designed to protect other satellite networks from potential interference caused by a satellite operating at the 77.0° W.L. orbital location. Intelsat North America‘s operations at the 76.70° W.L orbital location are subject to Article 22 of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Radio Regulations. Intelsat North America shall prepare the necessary information, as may be required, for submission to the ITU to initiate and complete the advance publication, international coordination, due diligence, and notification process of this space station, in accordance with the ITU Radio Regulations. Intelsat shall be held responsible for all cost—recovery fees associated with these ITU filings. We also note that no protection from interference caused by radio stations authorized by other administrations is guaranteed unless coordination and notification procedures are timely completed or, with respect to individual administrations, by successfully completing coordination agreements. Any radio station authorization for which coordination has not been completed may be subject

to additional terms and conditions as required to effect coordination of the frequency assignments of other administrations. See 47 C.F.R. §25.111(b). All other terms and conditions in the license for the IA—5 satellite, as modified by subsequent Commission action remain in effect. See IBFS File No.: SAT—L/A— 19970411—00030. This action is issued pursuant to Section 0.261 of the Commission‘s rules on delegated authority, 47 C.F.R. § 0.261, and is effective upon release.
