      Subject: Inclined Orbit of AMC-7 (Call Sign S2155)


      Dear Ms. Dortch,

      SES Americom, Inc. (“SES Americom”), pursuant to Section 25.280(a) of the Commission’s rules, 47
      C.F.R. § 25.280(a), hereby advises the Commission that its AMC-7 spacecraft will be commencing
      inclined orbit operations at the 135.0° W.L. orbital location.

      The last inclination control maneuver took place on December 28, 2018, and the satellite left the
      inclination window of 0.1 degrees on January 1, 2019. SES Americom projects that the inclination will
      change at a rate of about 0.85 degrees per year. The expected end-of-life of AMC-7 accounting for its
      inclined orbit is February 2021.

      Please address any questions regarding this matter to the undersigned.

      Yours Sincerely,

      /s/ Petra A. Vorwig
