           Dea:r Ms. Dortch: _

            PanAmSat Licensee Corp. ("PanAmSat") hereby notifies the Commission that
            it has successfully de—orbited its Galaxy 4R satellite. The de—orbiting was
           completed on April 21, 2009. The final measured orbit of the Galaxy 4R
            satellite is 124 km above the geostationary arc, with an apogee and perigeeof
           129 km and 119 km above the arc, respectively. All available fuel was used to
           propel the satellite as high as possible above the geostationary arc. In the
           course of de—orbiting the satellite, PanAmSat depleted the propellant tanks,
           discharged the batteries, disconnected the power from the bus, and shut off the
           transmitters.

           Please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned should you have any
           questions.                                                                             —
