("ViaSat") files this administrative update in connection with the above— referenced Letter of Intent application, as amended, to inform the Commission of a new officer of ViaSat and of developments relating to the construction of the VIASAT—IOM satellite. To supplement the ownership information provided in the amended Letter of Intent filing, ViaSat adds to the list of Officers and Senior Management, Thomas E. Moore, Senior Vice President. Mr. Moore can be reached c/o ViaSat, Inc., 6155 El Camino Real, Carlsbad, CA 92009. As ViaSat indicated in the amendment to the Letter of Intent filed on June 23, 2008, ViaSat has entered into a contract with Space Systems/Loral, Inc. ("SS/L") for the construction of the VIASAT—IOM satellite.‘ Critical design review ("CDR") pursuant to that contract was completed on January 30, 2009. ViaSat thus already has satisfied the first two milestones that the Commission applies to GSO spacecraft. Additionally, ViaSat has procured launch services for the VIASAT—IOM satellite from International Launch Services. The satellite is scheduled to be launched from the Baikonur Space Center in early 2011. | File No. SAT—AMD—20080623—00131, Amendment Narrative at 1 (filed June 23, 2008).
