                            Re:     Request for Voluntary Dismissal of SES—MOD—20080620—00832.

                            Dear Sir or Madam:

                                    NewCom International ("NewCom"), by its undersigned counsel and pursuant to
                            section 25.120 of the Commission‘s Rules, 47 C.F.R. § 25.120, hereby requests that the
                            Commission dismiss NewCom‘s modification application ("Application") to add the
                            Intersputnik Express 3A ("Express 3A") geostationary satellite positioned at 11° west
                            longitude as a permanent point of communication to Call Sign E050018.‘ Subsequent to
                            filing the Application, the Russian Satellite Communications Company ("RSCC") began
                            taking formal steps to deorbit and permanently decommission the Express 3A. Given
                            that final deorbiting maneuvers are expected to occur in early 2009, permanent authority
                            to communicate with the Express 3A is no longer necessary, and NewCom seeks only
                            special tegnporary authority ("STA") to communicate with the satellite under Call Sign
                            EO050018.

                                    The technical and operational parameters referenced in the Application are not
                            affected by this filing. Accordingly, NewCom‘s STA requests, seeking permission to use
                            the Express 3A as a point of communication for Call Sign E050018, continue to cross
                            reference the Application.

                                    Please direct any inquiries regarding this filing to the undersigned at 202—373—
                            6560.                                                               ‘
