               Application to Modify Authorization for Intelsat 5 (S2704)
               File No. SAT-MOD-20180501-00036

Dear Ms. Dortch:

       At the request of Federal Communications Commission (“FCC” or “Commission”) staff, Intelsat
License LLC (“Intelsat”) requests the amendment of its above-referenced Application.

         Specifically, Intelsat’s Application should be updated to reflect that the GOES 17 satellite will
have an overlapping station-keeping volume with Intelsat 5 at 137.0° W.L. Intelsat 5 is currently on-
station at 137.0° W.L. and GOES 17 is on-orbit and undergoing in-orbit testing. Intelsat is currently
working with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to ensure the safe operation of both
satellites.

       Please direct any further questions regarding this request to the undersigned at (703) 559-6949.

Sincerely,

/s/ Cynthia J. Grady

Cynthia J. Grady
Regulatory Counsel
