In an abundance of caution, LightSquared previously had not filed a certification of
commencement of operations for the two earth stations and had requested extension
of the deadline, because of ambiguity regarding whether the authorized testing with
MSAT-1 and MSAT-2 met the commencement of operations requirement under 47
C.F.R. § 25.133. The Bureau has since clarified and indicated that filing a
certification of commencement of operations would be appropriate under the
circumstances here. Accordingly, LightSquared is submitting this certification and
contemporaneously withdrawing its prior requests for extension of the
commencement of operations deadline for the two earth stations. See File Nos.
SES-MOD-20100405-00401, SES-AMD-20100908-01148; SES-MOD-20100405-
00400, SES-AMD-20100908-01149.
