addition, the Engineering Statement provides information on Intelsat’s compliance with the

Commission’s orbital debris mitigation rules.7

         C.     Waiver Requests

         Intelsat requests waiver of the following technical rules:

                (1) Section 25.210(i)(1), which specifies cross polarization isolation requirements
                    within the primary coverage area;

                (2) Section 25.210(a)(3), which requires all space stations in the FSS for domestic
                    service in the 3700-4200 MHz and 5925-6425 MHz bands to be capable of
                    switching polarization sense upon ground command;

                (3) Section 25.202(g), which requires that TT&C functions for U.S. domestic
                    satellites be conducted at either or both edges of the allocated bands; and

                (4) Footnote 2 of Section 25.202 (a)(1) and Footnote NG104 of the U.S. Table of
                    Allocations, which limit the use of the 11450-11700 MHz band by the non-
                    federal fixed satellite service in the geostationary orbit to international
                    systems only.

         Under Section 1.3 of the Commission’s rules, the Commission has authority to waive its

rules “for good cause shown.”8 Good cause exists if “special circumstances warrant a deviation

from the general rule and such deviation will serve the public interest” better than adherence to

the general rule.9 In determining whether waiver is appropriate, the Commission should “take

into account considerations of hardship, equity, or more effective implementation of overall

policy.”10 As shown below, there is good cause for each of the requested technical waivers.

                 1.      Request for Waiver of Section 25.210(i)(1)

          Intelsat requests waiver of Section 25.210(i)(1) of the Commission’s rules. Section

25.210(i)(1) requires that satellite antennas in the Fixed-Satellite Service be designed to provide

a cross-polarization isolation such that the ratio of the on-axis co-polar gain to the on-axis cross-

polar gain of the antenna in the assigned frequency band will be at least 30 dB within its primary

coverage area.11 As explained more fully on pages 6 and 7 and Exhibit 5D of the attached

Engineering Statement, the 30 dB requirement is not met with regard to the Intelsat 21 West

Hemi, vertically polarized receive beam, which has a cross-polarization isolation of at least 27

dB in a very limited portion of the coverage area.

          Good cause exists to waive the cross-polarization isolation requirement of Section

25.210(i)(1) because a failure to meet the requirement does not adversely affect any other

operator.12 The FCC previously has acknowledged that non-compliance results only in self-

interference and granted waivers to other operators in similar situations.13 In this case, the

minimum level of isolation of the non-compliant Intelsat 21 beam within the primary coverage

area is 27 dB. This level was the best that the satellite manufacturer could achieve without

causing excessive degradation in the co-polarized gain of the beam and/or in the size of its

coverage area. Intelsat has taken this level of isolation into account in its planned operations.

Moreover, Commission precedent supports a grant of Intelsat’s requested waiver of Section

25.210(i)(1) for Intelsat 21.14

                 2.      Request for Waiver of Section 25.210(a)(3)

          Intelsat also requests waiver of Section 25.210(a)(3), which requires all space stations in

the Fixed-Satellite Service used for domestic service in the 3700-4200 MHz and 5925-6425

MHz bands to be capable of switching polarization sense upon ground command.15 The Intelsat

21 C-band beam polarizations are fixed and cannot be changed.

          Good cause exists to waive this requirement because there is no risk of harmful

interference. The co-frequency C-band satellites within plus/minus six degrees of Intelsat 21 at

58.0° W.L. are Intelsat 707 at 53° W.L., Intelsat 805 at 55.5° W.L., Galaxy 11 at 55.5º W.L., and

Amazonas-1 and Amazonas-2 at 61.0º W.L. With respect to the first three satellites, Intelsat will

coordinate the operations of Intelsat 21 internally. With respect to the Amazonas-1 and

Amazonas-2 satellites, Intelsat will operate Intelsat 21 in accordance with the terms of its

existing coordination agreements with Hispamar Satelites, S.A., the operator of those satellites.

Accordingly, there is no risk of harmful interference. In addition, Commission precedent

supports a grant of Intelsat’s requested waiver of Section 25.210(a)(3) for the Intelsat 21

satellite.16

                 3.     Request for Waiver of Section 25.202(g)

          Intelsat also requests waiver of Section 25.202(g), which requires that TT&C functions

for U.S. domestic satellites be conducted at either or both edges of the allocated bands.17 The

Intelsat 21 command frequencies are outside of the 14000-14500 MHz portion of the satellite’s

Ku-band payload. Specifically, the Intelsat 21 command frequencies are located at 13750.5

MHz and 13994.5 MHz.

          Good cause exists to waive this requirement. As described more fully in the Engineering

Statement, because Intelsat 21 will be operating at the nominal 58.0º W.L. location with Intelsat

16 at 58.1º W.L. and, for a period of time, with Intelsat 9 at 58.0º W.L., Intelsat could not utilize

a frequency segment in the 14000-14500 MHz band for command that would satisfy the

company’s technical requirements for safe TT&C operation. Moreover, waiver is warranted here

because Intelsat is already utilizing the 13750-14000 MHz band at this nominal location on

Intelsat 16.18 Accordingly, Intelsat’s use of the 13750.5 MHz and 13994.5 MHz frequencies for

command of Intelsat 21 does not adversely affect any other operator.

                 4.     Request for Waiver of Footnote 2 of Section 25.202(a)(1) and Footnote
                        NG104 of the U.S. Table of Allocations

          Intelsat also requests waiver of footnote 2 to Section 25.202(a)(1) and footnote NG104 of

the U.S. Table of Allocations, which restrict the use of the 11450-11700 MHz band by the non-

federal Fixed-Satellite Service (“FSS”) in the geostationary orbit to international systems only.19

The 11450-11700 MHz band is used by the Intelsat mobility beam, which covers eastern South

America, Europe, western Africa and a small portion of the northeast United States.

          Good cause exists to waive the international only requirements for the 11450-11700 MHz

frequency band. The purpose of NG104 and footnote 2 of Section 25.202(a)(1) is to limit the

number of the FSS earth stations with which the co-primary Fixed Service would need to

coordinate.20 Intelsat will provide services in the 11450-11700 MHz frequency band only on a

non-interference/non-protected basis, and therefore will not need to coordinate with Fixed

Service stations. Additionally, the Commission previously granted a waiver of NG104 and

footnote 2 of Section 25.202(a)(1) to the Intelsat 9 (formerly PAS 9/ PAS 23) satellite that

Intelsat 21 seeks to replace at the 58.0° W.L.21

         Moreover, grant of this waiver is consistent with the Commission’s precedent. A waiver

of the Table of Allocations is generally granted “when there is little potential interference into

any service authorized under the Table of Frequency allocations and when the nonconforming

operator accepts any interference from authorized services.”22 The International Bureau has

found that waiving NG104 and footnote 2 of Section 25.202(a)(1) would not undermine the

purpose of the rules if the party seeking a waiver: (1) will be utilizing earth stations that are

receive-only in these bands and thus “not capable of causing interference into FS stations”

operating in the bands.23 Intelsat satisfies these criteria. The earth stations operating in the

11450-11700 MHz band on Intelsat 21 will not transmit in these bands and Intelsat agrees to

accept any level of interference into those earth stations from Fixed Service stations in the band.

Accordingly, the earth stations operating in these bands pose no interference concerns with

respect to co-frequency Fixed Service stations.

         Intelsat also agrees to abide by the customer notification requirements that the

International Bureau has previously imposed when granting waivers of NG104 and footnote 2 of

Section 25202(a)(1).24 Intelsat will inform its customers in writing, including any customers

receiving end-user services from resellers accessing capacity on Intelsat 21, of the potential for

interference from Fixed Service operations in the 11450-11700 MHz band.

The frequencies on Intelsat 21 are identical to those on Intelsat 9.


II.    GRANT OF THIS APPLICATION WILL SERVE THE PUBLIC INTEREST

       The Commission recognizes a “replacement expectancy” in orbital locations in order to

protect the large investments made by satellite operators. The agency has stated,

               [G]iven the huge costs of building and operating satellite space
               stations, there should be some assurance that operators will be able
               to continue to serve their customers. The Commission has
               therefore stated that, when the orbit location remains available for
               a U.S. satellite with the technical characteristics of the proposed
               replacement satellite, it will generally authorize the replacement
               satellite at the same location.26



25

        In this case, Intelsat holds a replacement expectancy for the nominal 58.0º W.L. orbital

location. As demonstrated in the attached Engineering Statement and FCC Form 312, Schedule

S, Intelsat 21 is technically consistent with the Intelsat 9 satellite currently operating at the 58.0°

W.L. location.

        In addition, grant of this application will serve the public interest by ensuring continuity

of service to consumers from the nominal 58.0° W.L. orbital location. Intelsat stands ready to

deploy a replacement satellite to the 58.0º W.L. orbital location before Intelsat 9 reaches the end

of its useful life or is relocated and has made concrete steps toward constructing Intelsat 21.

Indeed, the Commission has stated that granting replacement applications ensures that service

will be provided to consumers as efficiently as possible because the current licensee will be

familiar with the service requirements and, given its experience, should be able to deploy a

replacement satellite in the shortest possible time. 27

III.    ITU COST RECOVERY

        Intelsat is aware that processing fees are currently charged by the ITU for satellite filings,

and that Commission applicants are responsible for any and all fees charged by the ITU.28

Intelsat is aware of and unconditionally accepts this requirement and responsibility to pay any

Rcd 6972, n.31 (1988) and GE American Communications, Inc., Order and Authorization, 10
FCC Rcd 13775, ¶ 6 (Int’l Bur. 1995)).

satellite with a ground spare at the next available launch window, or procure a technically
identical satellite in an expedient manner since it would have already completed the complex
design process.”).

Intelsat for the satellite proposed in this Application, as well as any ITU filings associated with

any satellite system for which Intelsat may request authorization at a later date.

IV.    11450-11700 MHZ FREQUENCY BAND

       Intelsat understands that operations in the 11450-11700 MHz frequency band are subject

to certain limitations and obligations, which Intelsat accepts and will fulfill. Specifically, for

operations in the 11450-11700 MHz frequency band, Intelsat accepts the following condition:


       Intelsat’s use of the 11450-11700 MHz band (space-to-Earth) is subject to footnote
       US211 to the United States Table of Frequency Allocations, 47 C.F.R. § 2.106, US211,
       which urges applicants for airborne or space station assignments to take all practicable
       steps to protect radio astronomy observations in the adjacent bands from harmful
       interference, consistent with footnote US74.

V.     CONCLUSION

                                            Exhibit B

             FCC Form 312, Response to Question 36: Cancelled Authorizations

        Intelsat License LLC (“Intelsat”) has never had an FCC license “revoked.” However, on
June 26, 2000, the International Bureau “cancelled” two Ka-band satellite authorizations issued
to a former Intelsat entity, PanAmSat Licensee Corp. (“PanAmSat”),3 based on the Bureau’s
finding that PanAmSat had not satisfied applicable construction milestones.4 In that same order,
the Bureau denied related applications to modify the cancelled authorizations. PanAmSat filed
an application for review of the Bureau’s decision, which the Commission denied, and
subsequently filed an appeal with the United States Court of Appeals for the District of
Columbia Circuit, which was dismissed in January 2003 at PanAmSat’s request.
Notwithstanding the fact that the Bureau’s action does not seem to be the kind of revocation
action contemplated by question 36, Intelsat is herein making note of the decision in the interest
of absolute candor and out of an abundance of caution. In any event, the Bureau’s action with
respect to PanAmSat does not reflect on Intelsat’s basic qualifications, which are well-
established and a matter of public record.

       All licenses previously held by PanAmSat Licensee Corp. have been assigned to Intelsat
License LLC. See IBFS File Nos. SAT-ASG-20101203-00252 (granted Dec. 23, 2010), SES-
