PanAmSat H-2 Licensee Corp.3 (PanAmSat)'s request to modify its authorization to
launch and operate a Ku-band satellite, Horizons 2,' IBFS File No. SAT-MOD-
20070628-00090 as amended by File No. SAT-AMD-2007073 1-00108 (Call Sign:
S2423), to be located at the 74.05' W.L. orbital location IS GRANTED. Accordingly,
PanAmSat is authorized to provide Fixed Satellite Services (FSS) in the 1 1.7-12.2 GHz
(space to Earth) and 14.0-14.5 (Earth to space) frequency bands using the Horizons 2
satellite at the 74.05" W.L orbital location, in accordance with the technical specifications
set forth in its application, this Attachment, and the Commission's Rules and subject to
the following conditions:

          1. PanAmSat shall operate the Horizons 2 satellite at the 74.05' W.L orbital
location in compliance with all existing or future coordination agreements for that
location.

         2. PanAmSat shall prepare the necessary information, as may be required, for
submission to the International Telecommunication Union (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. PanAmSat
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
administrations is guaranteed unless coordination and notification procedur
completed or, with respect to individual administrations, by successfully c
coordination agreements. Any radio station authorization for which coordinati
been completed may be subject to additional terms and conditions as required t
coordination of the frequency assignments of other administrations. See 47
$25.1 11(b).

         3. Horizons 2 must begin providing service at the 74.05" W.L orbital 1
the Ku-bands before the satellites it is replacing discontinues service at the
orbital location.2 Failure to meet this milestone date shall render this author
and void.

         4. PanAmSat's request for waiver of Section 25.114(d)(3) of the Co

 As part of its modification request, PanAmSat changed the name of the satellite from SBS-6R td Horizons
2.
 Among other things, a replacement satellite is one that is scheduled to be launched so that it will b
brought into use at approximately the same time as, but no later than, the existing satellites are ret.re

                                                                                                    f


rules, 47 C.F.R. 5 25.1 14(d)(3), IS GRANTED. Section 25.1 14(d)(3) requires predicted
space station antenna gain contour(s) for each transmit and each receive antenna beam
and nominal orbital location requested. PanAmSat’s application indicates that the Omni
Antenna diagrams (Exhibits 6H, 61, 6K, and 6L) were not prepared in accordance with
the parameters specified in Section 25.114(d)(3) of the Coi~imission’sRules because the
satellite manufacturer did not provide contours in the required form since pointing of the
omni antennas with respect to the Earth will vary during emergency situations. Similarly,
PanAmSat’s application indicates that the ULPC global horn antenna diagram (Exhibit
6M) was not prepared in accordance with the parameters specified in Section
25.1 14(d)(3) of the Commission’s Rules because the satellite manufacturer did not
provide contours in the required form. Under these specific circumstances, we find that
Exhibits 6H, 61, 6K, 6L, and 6M, together with the descriptive characterization provided
in Sections 2.7.1 and 2.8 of the appli~ation,~   respectively, fulfill the requirements of                     *




Section 25.1 14(d)(3). Grant of this waiver request is consistent with our p r e ~ e d e n t . ~

        5. PanAmSat’s request for a partial waiver of Section 25.283(c) of the
Commission’s rules, 47 C.F.R. 25.283(c), IS GRANTED. Section 25.283(c) specifies
that space stations must discharge all stored energy sources at end-of-life of the space
station. PanAmSat indicates that due to its design, Horizon 2’s oxidizer tanlts cannot be
completely depleted but will retain approximately 13 kilograms of the oxidizer (less than
a 3% fill fraction) after the oxidizer tanks are isolated froin the Liquid Apogee Motor
(LAE) and Dual Mode Thrusters (DMTs) immediately following the last orbit-raising
maneuver. This waiver is granted because modification of the spacecraft would present
an undue hardship, given the late stage of satellite construction. In malting this
determination, we note that, the information submitted in the application is not sufficient
to support a finding that the intent of the rule would be satisfied by the described
procedure for sealing the oxidizer tank.

        6. The license term for the space station is 15 years and will begin on the date
PanAmSat certifies to the Commission that the satellite has been successfully placed into
orbit and its operation fully conforms to the terms and conditions of this authorization.
PanAmSat shall file its certification with the Chief, Satellite Division, International
Bureau within 5 business days of the satellite being placed into operation at the 74.05”
W.L. orbital location.
       7. PanAmSat is afforded thirty days from the date of release of this grant and
authorization to decline this authorization as conditioned. Failure to respond within this

       8. PanAmSat's Licensee Corp. 's request for special temporary authority to
conduct in-orbit testing of Horizons 2 at the 67.5" W.L. orbital location for a period of 60
days prior to Horizon 2's installation at the 74.05" W.L. orbital location, File No. SAT-
STA-20071029-00147, IS GRANTED. Accordingly, PaiiAmSat H-2 Licensee Corp. is
authorized to conduct space station Telemetry, Tracking, and Control operations on
Horizons 2 necessary to effect operation at the 67.5" W.L. orbital location in the 11.7-
12.2 GHz (space to Earth) and 14.0-14.5 (Earth to space) frequency bands from
December 26,2007 to February 23,2007, subject to the following conditions:

       a. All operations shall be on an unprotected and non-harmful interference basis,
       i. e., PanAmSat shall not cause harmful interference to, and shall not claim
       protection from interference caused to it by, any other lawfully operating
       radiocommunication system.

       b. In the event of any harmful interference as a result of PanAmSat's operations
       at the 67.5" W.L. orbital location, PanAmSat shall cease operations immediately
       upon notification of such interference and shall inforin the FCC, in writing,
       immediately of such an event.

       c. While at the 67.5" W.L. orbital location, PanAiiiSat shall maintain the
       Horizons 2 spacecraft with an east/west longitudinal station-keeping tolerance of
       0.05 degrees.

       d. Any actions taken as a result of the launch and operation of Horizons 2 are
       solely at PanAmSat's own risk.

        9. These actions are issued pursuant to Section 0.261 of the Commission's rules
on delegated authority, 47 C.F.R. 5 0.261, and are effective upon grant. Petitions for
reconsideration under Section 1.106 or applications for review under Section 1.115 of the
Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R. $5 1.106, 1.115, may be filed within 30 days of the date
