                                       Exhibit D

           PETITION FOR WAIVER OF SECTIONS 25.137 AND 25.114


Earth station applicants seeking to access a foreign-licensed satellite must demonstrate
that “U.S.-licensed satellites have effective competitive opportunities to provide
analogous services in” the “country in which the non-U.S.-licensed space station is
licensed.”1 Although the JSAT-2A satellite is not on the Commission’s Permitted Space
Station List, the Commission previously has authorized the satellite as a point of
communication for a U.S. earth station.2 In addition, a Japanese-licensed satellite –
Horizons 1 – is on the Permitted Space Station List.3 Intelsat incorporates herein by
reference the information previously filed with the Commission regarding the JSAT-2A
satellite,4 as well as access by foreign-licensed satellites to the Japanese market.5
Because the required information previously has been filed, and to the extent necessary,
Intelsat respectfully requests a waiver of Sections 25.137 and 25.114 of the
Commission’s rules.6
