During the drift ofthe satellite, Intelsat will utlize only TT&C frequencies on the
satellite. Those TT&C frequencies are as follows:
Uplinks:            6175 Mite +/7 MHiz
Downlinkc           3050 MHtz +/ 2.675 MHz
Grant ofthis STA extension request will serve the public interet by allowing
Intelsat to help restore serviceat 174° EL. ollowing a satelitefilure. In addition,
grant ofthis STA request will notresult n increased risk ofharmful iterference.
As noted above, Intelsat will operate only TT&C frequenciesduring the drif.
