ATTACHMENT IBFS File Nos. SAT—MOD—20051014—00200 and SAT—AMD—20051118—00223 April 20, 2006 Pursuantto Sections 303(), 308, 309, and 310 ofthe Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. §§ 303(308, 309, 310, and Sections 0.261 and 25.137(c)of Federal Communication Commission (Commission) rules, 47 C.F.R. §§ 0.261, 25.137(c), Star One SA‘s (Star One) request, IBFS File No. SAT—MOD—20051014—00200, as amended by SAT—AMD—20051 118—00223, for modification of ts entry‘ on the Commission‘s Permitted Space Station List(Permitted List) for the Star One C2 satellite (Call Sign $2678) atthe 70° W.L. orbital location is GRANTED. Specifically, we modify Star One C2‘s entry on the Permitted Listto delete service to, from, or within the United States using the C—band frequencies 5925—6425 MHz (Earth—to—space) and 3700— 4200 MHz (space—to Earth)" Accordingly, each U.5—licensed earth station with "ALSAT" designated as a point of communication, may provide Fixed Satelite Services (FSS) in the 14000—14500 MHz (Earth—to—space), and 11700—12200 MHz (space—to— Earth) frequency bands, o, from, or within the United States, by accessing the Star One C2 satelite (Call Sign $2678) at the 70° W.L. orbitallocation, in accordance with the terms, conditions, and technical specifications set forth in its application, the Commission‘s rules, the Seprember 9, 2005 Permitted List Entry, and the following conditions: 1. Star One‘s request for waiver of the frequency reuse requirement of section 25.210(0, 47 C.F.R. § 25.210(D, with respectto the Ku—band payload 15 GRANTED as conditioned. Section 25.210(f) requires all FSS space stations to employ state—of—the—artfull frequeney reuse either through the use of orthogonal polarizations within the same beam and/or the use ofspatially independent beams. The full—frequency reuse requirements were designed to ensure that satellites maximized the use oftheir ransponder capacity to the benefit ofthe public.® The Commission has waived these requirements where, as in the case of Star One C2 at 70° W.L., doing so would allow satellte capacity that would otherwise lay dormant to be used to provide service as long as such use does not preclude a * SAT—PPL20080708—00144, authorized by grantstamp on September9, 200(Seprember9, 2008 Permited LiEniy), Public NoticeReport No. SAT—00318 (rel.September 92009) ° Star One‘s modifiation also noted a change o the feederlnk and on station elemetryricking and command (TT&C).

state—of—the—art satellite from operating atthis location." Grant of this waiver requestis consistent with our precedent.® To allow the public to receive service from an additional competitor, we grant Star One a waiver of these full—frequency reuse requirements. Star One C2‘s operations at 70° W.L., however, are authorized conditioned upon it accommodating future satellte networks serving the United States that are two—degree compliant. 2. In light ofthe deletion ofauthority to provide C:—band services to, from, or within the United States, the conditional waiver of the Section 25.210(@)(3) requirement that C—band Fixed Satellte Service space stations be capable of switching polarity upon ground command granted in the Seprember 9, 2005 Permitted List Entry no Tonger applies to STAR One C2 at 70° W.L. Similarly, the conditional waiver ofthe Section 25.211(a) requirement that C—band analog video transmissions occur at specific center frequencies no longer applies to the STAR One C2 at 70° W.L. 3. Other than these changes to reflect the updated technical specifications ofthe satellite, the conditions of Star One‘s September 9, 2005 Permitted List Entry remain unaffected 4. This action is taken pursuant to Section 0.261 ofthe Commission‘srules on delegated authority, 47 C.F.R. § 0.261, and is effective upon adoption. Petitions for reconsideration under Section 1.106 or applications for review under Section 1.115 ofthe Commission‘s rules, 47 C.F.R. §§ 1.106, 1.115, may be filed within 30 days ofthe date of the public notice indicating that this action was taken. $e4 alts 2et—mob—200510BtCOrce set—amo— Seerée «{24,06 2005 i\ \&—06223 uflod&tuu& Fou %Mc{fifi * See ex., Sytematics Generl Corporation, For Special Temporiy Authoriy To Operte a Communications Satelite System Providing Domestic Fixed Satlite Service, Order andduthorizaton.
