We grant Intelsat LLC's ("Intelsat") request for an extension of special temporary
authority' to continue conducting the transfer of traffic from its INTELSAT 702 satellite,
currently located at the 54.85" E.L. orbital location, to the INSAT 3E satellite, for the
period of December 13,2003 to January 12,2004 subject, to the terms, conditions, and
technical specifications set forth in its application and this Attachment:2



         1)       Intelsat shall coordinate all of its operations with existing geostationary
                  satellites to ensure that no unacceptable interference results from these
                  operations; and

         2)       Intelsat is required to accept interference from other lawfully operating in-
                  orbit satellites; and

         3)       Any action taken or expense incurred as a result of operations pursuant to
                  this special temporary authority is solely at Intelsat's own risk; and

         4)       During Intelsat's operations at 54.85" E.L., no harmful interference shall
                  be caused by INTELSAT 702 to any other lawfully operating in-orbit
                  satellite. In the event of any harmful interference as a result of Intelsat's
                  operations at 54.85" E.L., Intelsat shall cease operations immediately upon
                  notification of such interference and shall inform the FCC in writing
                  immediately of such an event and

         5)       Intelsat must operate the INTELSAT 702 satellite consistent with the
                  Administration of India's coordination agreements and in compliance with
                  all existing coordination agreements at the nominal 55.0" E.L. orbital
                  location; and



I
           See SAT-STA-2003 1 1 12-00326, stamp grant issued by Jennifer Gilsenan, Chief, Policy Branch,
Satellite Division on November 13,2003. (Intelsat was granted special temporary authority for a period of
30 days to begin drifting the INTELSAT 702 satellite to the 54.85" E.L orbital location in order to transfer
traffic to the INSAT 3E satellite.)
2
         We note the Administration of India holds the C-band and Ku-band satellite network filings at the
International Telecommunications Union for the operational satellite at the 55.0" E.L. orbital location.
Previously, Intelsat through an agreement with the Administration of India and the Indian Space Research
Organization ("ISRO") and under a grant of special temporary authority had been operating the
INTELSAT 702 satellite at the 55.0" E.L. orbital location. (See File. Number SAT-STA-2003011000001
stamp grant issued by Jennifer Gilsenan, Chief, Policy Branch, Satellite Division on February 24,2003).


6)   Intelsat must operate in accordance with the terms of the Intelsamew
     Skies agreement; and

7)   Grant of this special temporary authority does not, in any way, prejudice
     Commission action on any pending or future Intelsat LLC application or
     amendment application for permanent or temporary authority, or for
     modification of permanent or temporary authority, to operate any satellite
     at the 54.85" E.L. orbital location; and

8)   Intelsat is afforded thirty days from the date of release of this grant and
     authorization to decline this authorization as conditioned. Failure to
     respond within this period will constitute formal acceptance of the
     authorization as conditioned; and

9)   This Grant is issued pursuant to Section 0.261 of the Commission's rules
     on delegated authority, 47 C.F.R. 3 0.261, and is effective upon release.
     Petitions for reconsideration under Section 1.106 or applications for
     review under Section 1.1 15 of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R. $ 3
     1.106, 1.115, may be filed within 30 days of the date of the public notice
     indicating that this action was taken.
