Dear Ms. Dortch:

        On January 27, 2009, Liberty Media Corporation (“Liberty Media”) and DIRECTV
Enterprises, LLC ("DIRECTV") filed the above-referenced pro forma application to transfer
control of six Direct Broadcast Satellite space station licenses held by DIRECTV from Liberty
Media to Liberty Entertainment, Inc. Upon subsequent review, it was discovered that DIRECTV
13 (call sign S2693) was inadvertently included in the list of call signs to be transferred. This was
a clerical error. On November 9, 2007, DIRECTV voluntarily surrendered its authorization1 for
DIRECTV 13 by letter filed with the FCC.2 Therefore, DIRECTV 13 is no longer a valid
authorization subject to the current pro forma transfer of control application.

       The Applicants respectfully request that the Commission delete DIRECTV 13 from the
above-referenced application.

        If you have any questions, please call Tom Bardo at (202) 712-2817. Thank you for your
attention to this matter.

                                                         Respectfully submitted,

                                                               /S/
                                                         Thomas F. Bardo
                                                         Counsel for Liberty Media Corporation

                                                                /S/
                                                         William M. Wiltshire
                                                         Counsel for DIRECTV Enterprises, LLC
