Dear Mr. Albuquerque:

       It has come to the attention of Telesat Canada (“Telesat”) that there were two
typographical errors in the Schedule S that it submitted in connection with the above-
referenced application. These errors are described and corrected below:


        The Right Ascension of Ascending Node (RAAN) values for Telesat’s five
inclined orbits are separated by 72°, i.e., the RAAN values for the 5 inclined orbits are
0°, 72°, 144°, 216°, and 288°. All the calculations, analysis, demonstrations, figures, and
the video presented in Telesat’s Petition are based on the 72° separation for the RAAN
values for the inclined orbits. However, there were two typos in the RAAN values in
Schedule S. Specifically, in the Schedule S the RAAN values for the five inclined orbits
were as shown in Table 1:
Table 1: The RAAN values from the submitted Schedule S which included typos
Orbital Plane       RAAN [degrees]
Number in the
Schedule S
          6                   0
          7                  36
          8                  72
          9                 108
         10                 144


The correct value of RAAN for Orbit 7 is 216° and the correct value of RAAN for Orbit 9
is 288°. Table 2 shows the correct RAAN values for the five Inclined Orbits.
Table 2: The correct RAAN values for the 5 Inclined Orbits
Orbital Plane         RAAN [degrees]
Number in the
Schedule S
          6                    0
          7                  216
          8                   72
          9                  288
         10                  144


The typos appeared only in the Schedule S and did not affect any part of the
calculations, analysis, pictures, video, and demonstrations presented in Telesat’s
Petition.
      We regret these errors. Please let me know if you require a corrected Schedule S.

     Should the Commission need additional information, I can be reached at
eneasmith@telesat.com or 1-613-748-8700 x3279.


Very truly yours,
