Attachment to Grant Satélites Mexicanos, S.A. de C.V. IBFS File No. SAT—PPL—20131120—00137 Call Signs $2873, $2695, $2589 On November 20, 2013, Satélites Mexicanos, S.A. de C.V. notified the Commission, pursuant to Section 25.137(g) of the Commission‘s rules, of a planned transfer of control. Satélites Mexicanos states that its control will be transferred to Eutelsat S.A. The notification of planned transfer was placed on Public Notice on November 22, 2013. See Public Notice, Report No. SAT—00981. The Commission did not receive any comments. After review, the Satellite Division has determined that the planned transfer of control of Satélites Mexicanos will not affect any of the considerations made when the Mexican—licensed Satmex 5 (82589), Satmex 6 (S2695), and Satmex 8 (S2873) satellites were initially granted U.S. market access. See Protocol Concerning the Transmission and Reception of Signals from Satellites for the Provision of Direct—to—Home Satellite Services in the United States of America and the United Mexican States, November 8, 1996. Upon receipt of notice of consummation of the transaction, the Permitted Space Station List will be updated to provide information concerning the transfer of control.

NAME TITLE Jean—Martin Folz Director Michel de Rosen Director, Chairman of the Board and CEO, Eutelsat Communications Miriem Bensalah Chagroun Director Lori Birt Director, Vice Chairman of the Board Jean—Paul Brillaud Director Bpifrance participations (BPI) represented by Director Thomas Devedjian Bertrand Mabille Director Ross Mclunes Director Elisabetta Oliveri Director Carole Piwnica Director Christian Roisse Board Observer, Executive Secretary of the Eutelsat Intergovernmental Organisation The address for the individuals listed above is 70 rue Balard, 75015 Paris, France.

Counsel for Eutelsat is: Jeffrey Cunard Debevoise & Plimpton LLP 555 13th Street, NW., Suite 1100—E Washington, D.C. 20004 Phone: 202—383—8043 Facsimile: 202—383—8118 Counsel for Satmex is: Carlos M. Nalda Squire Sanders (US) LLP 1200 19th Street, NW, Suite 300 Washington, D.C. 20036 Phone: 202—626—6659 Facsimile: 202—626—6780 IV. PUBLIC INTEREST The Commission previously found that adding Satmex 5, Satmex 6 and Satmex 8 to the Permitted List was in the public interest." For the same reasons, the public interest will be served by continuing to permit these three satellites to serve the U.S. market. The technical and operational characteristics of Satmex satellite operations for service to the U.S. market remain unchanged and thus will be fully consistent with FCC rules. Moreover, as is evidenced by recent grants of FCC authority, Eutelsat and its related entities are fully qualified to access the U.S. market in accordance with the Permitted List Authorizations for Satmex 5, Satmex 6 and Satmex 8. The transaction also will enhance competition by ensuring that U.S. customers continue to have access to satellites that will be ultimately controlled by a stronger and more diverse ownership group with broad expertise in satellite communications services. In particular, this transaction will afford U.S. customers access to additional video, data services, broadband and 8 Satmex 5 Grant; Satmex 6 Grant; Satmex 8 Grant.

other satellite—based communications applications. Thus, preserving Satmex access to the U.S. market would serve the public interest by facilitating the provision of advanced satellite services in the United States. v. CONCLUSION For the reasons stated herein, the change in ownership and control of Satmex does not affect the considerations relied upon by the Commission in granting Satmex access to the U.S. market and the Permitted List authority of Satmex 5, Satmex 6 and Satmex 8 should be maintained.
