             Supplement to Section 5 of Engineering Statement

Intelsat License LLC1 (“Intelsat”) hereby clarifies the following statement
contained in Section 5 of the Engineering Statement for the Galaxy 11
satellite (call sign S2253) submitted on November 2, 2010 (FCC File No.:
SAT-MOD-20101102-00229):

     “In those cases where PanAmSat may be required to transmit
     carriers with power levels in excess of those in Sections 25.212(c)
     and (d), it will coordinate those transmissions internally and/or
     with operators of other potentially affected adjacent satellites, as
     the case may be, as part of the normal coordination process.”

Intelsat states that, regardless of the levels that may be coordinated with the
operators of adjacent satellites, at C-band the uplink power density level of
Galaxy 11 digital carriers will not exceed -38.7 dBW/Hz and the downlink
EIRP density of such carriers will not exceed -34.6 dBW/Hz.

Similarly, at Ku-band, the uplink power density of Galaxy 11 digital carriers
will not exceed -45 dBW/Hz and the downlink EIRP density of such carrier
will not exceed -21 dBW/Hz.

The above maximum downlink EIRP densities were computed by dividing
the maximum EIRP of the beam, as given in the Schedule S, by the
minimum occupied bandwidth for full transponder utilization.
