            Dear Ms. Dortch:

                    On February 17, 2011, Andrew R. Etkind, General Counsel of Garmin International, Inc.
            ("Garmin"), and I met with Paul de Sa, Chief of the Office of Strategic Planning and Policy
            Analysis, to discuss the decision issued by the International Bureau on January 26, 2011, in the
            above—captioned matter and the steps being taken to effectuate the conditions included in that
            decision. Also discussed was the "Emergency Petition for Immediate Clarification" filed on
            February 15, 2011, by the U.S. GPS Industry Council regarding the Council‘s interest in
            obtaining clarification on the applicability of the Federal Advisory Commission Act to the
            working group being formed in response to the conditions in the Bureau‘s decision. Finally,
            Mr. Etkind discussed Garmin‘s testing to date and its ongoing efforts to assess the impact on
            GPS receivers operating in the 1559—1610 MHz band of the conditional authorization in the
            above—captioned matter. The LightSquared application proceeding has been designated to have
            permit—but—disclosure status for purposes of the Commission‘s ex parte rules.

                    By this letter, and in accordance with Section 1.1206 of the Commission‘s Rules,
            47 C.FE.R. § 1.1206, two copies of this letter are provided for inclusion in the Commission‘s files.

                    Please let me know if you have any questions.




                                                                         f        e Swarfson
                                                                      Counsel for Garmin International, Inc.
