Dear Ms. Dortch:

                 Intelsat License LLC (“Intelsat”) and Al Yah Satellite Communications Company
PrJSC (“Yahsat”) have reached a coordination agreement with respect to the parameters under
which Galaxy 26 should be able to operate at 50º E.L. so as not to cause excess interference to
the operations of Yahsat at 52.5º E.L. As requested by the staff of the International Bureau,
Intelsat will, concurrently with filing this letter, separately transmit to the FCC a copy of the
coordination agreement.

               Intelsat and Yahsat request that the FCC issue Intelsat’s requested license
modification subject to Intelsat’s compliance with the terms of the coordination agreement,
including the current December 31, 2013 expiration date.

              Please contact the undersigned should you have any questions.


                                                 Respectfully submitted,
