        Re: Emerging Markets Communications, LLC, Modification Application,
            File No. SES—MFS—20170906—00982, Call Sign £980250,
            Clarification Letter Pursuant to Section 1.65 of the FCC‘s Rules


Dear Ms. Dortch:

        Emerging Markets Communications, LLC ("EMC") submits this letter in response to a
request from the Satellite Division to clarify in two minor respects the scope of the modified
authority requested in the above—referenced application.

       First, the current license under Call Sign E980250 specifies the Philippine satellite
Mabuhay (Agila 2) at 146° E.L as a point of communication. It is our understanding that the
referenced satellite has been removed from that location, and is no longer in service; therefore, it
can be removed from the license, as modified.

        Second, in the initial application at Line 43, EMC noted that its modification included a
request to "extend the satellite arc." A more accurate description of this request, as is reflected
in the Frequency Coordination section of Schedule B, is to change the satellite arc information
for some of the currently authorized frequencies to reflect the satellite points of communication
authorized and requested.




                          2001 L STREET NW, SUITE 400 | WASHINGTON, DC 20036

       With these clarifications, we hope that you are able to place the application on Public
Notice as accepted for filing. Of course, should there be any additional questions regarding the
application, as clarified, please contact the undersigned counsel.

                                                  Respectfully submitt



                                                  David S. Kef
