                                       EXHIBIT A

        Intelsat License LLC (“Intelsat”) (f/k/a Intelsat North America LLC) herein
requests authorization to modify its existing license, call sign KA262, to relocate the
earth station from its Clarksburg, Maryland teleport to its Mountainside, Maryland
teleport.

        At its new location, the earth station will continue to communicate, per its current
license, with all U.S.-licensed and Permitted List satellites in the 5925-6425 MHz and
3700-4200 MHz frequency bands. Intelsat also seeks ability for its earth station to
continue communicating in the 5850-5925 MHz and 3625-3700 MHz frequency bands
with those Intelsat satellites that are licensed to operate in these bands. Intelsat
understands that communication in these bands will be limited to international
intercontinental systems per the requirements of footnote US245 of the FCC’s frequency
allocation table. Intelsat also understands that operations in the 3650-3700 MHz
frequency band will be on a secondary basis with respect to Fixed Service operations in
the band, pursuant to NG169.

        Intelsat is seeking authority to continue utilizing this antenna to operate TTC&M
carriers within the full 5850-6425 MHz and 3625-4200 MHz (C-band) frequency ranges.
This flexibility is requested because the earth station has been, and will continue to be,
part of a large satellite network that includes many satellites with different TTC&M
frequency ranges. The actual TTC&M transmissions will occur only in frequencies
approved in the related satellite authorizations, taking due account as appropriate, of
Section 25.202(g) of the FCC’s rules. Moreover, the proposed carrier that would
potentially operate in the full C-band frequency ranges (emission 60M0G1D) complies
with the FCC’s two-degree spacing requirements, as stipulated in Section 25.218 of the
FCC’s rules. Grant of this request will therefore be compliant with the FCC’s rules.

       The relevant technical information is provided in Exhibits B, C, D and F of this
application. Exhibit B contains a coordination report with Fixed Service operations.
Exhibit F contains results of an electromagnetic compatibility analyses with respect to
radiolocation operations in the bands below 3.7 GHz. Exhibits C and D address radiation
hazard as well as FAA notification requirements.
