RE:    File Nos. SAT-RPL-20100120-00014 and
       SAT-AMD-20100309-00040 (Call Sign S2807)
       Notification of SES Americom, Inc. pursuant to § 1.65

Dear Ms. Dortch:

                SES Americom, Inc. (“SES Americom,” doing business as “SES WORLD
         1
SKIES”), by its attorneys and pursuant to Section 1.65 of the Commission’s rules, hereby
updates the above-referenced application for the SES-1 satellite. Specifically, SES WORLD
SKIES advises the Commission that there has been a slight change in the planned location for in-
orbit testing of SES-1 due to coordination of stationkeeping with another satellite operator. In
the SES-1 amendment, SES WORLD SKIES indicated that in-orbit testing was planned to occur
at 142° W.L.2 Instead, SES WORLD SKIES plans to perform the in-orbit testing at 142.5° W.L.
SES WORLD SKIES requests that the Commission take this updated information into account in
processing the SES-1 application as amended. This new location will be reflected in SES
WORLD SKIES’s separate request for in-orbit testing authority.

     On September 7, 2009, SES S.A. announced that the newly integrated operations of its two
indirect subsidiaries, New Skies Satellites B.V. and SES Americom would be conducted under a
single brand name, SES WORLD SKIES. The new brand name does not affect the underlying
legal entities that hold Commission authorizations or U.S. market access rights.
