Re:    AC BidCo LLC Section 1.65 Letter
       File No. SES-MFS-20190304-00227, Call Sign E120106

Dear Ms. Dortch:

AC BidCo LLC (“AC BidCo”), by its attorney and pursuant to Section 1.65 of the Commission’s
rules, 47 C.F.R. § 1.65, hereby updates the above-referenced application to modify AC BidCo’s
Earth Stations Aboard Aircraft license (the “Modification Application”), which sought to add
satellites as authorized points of communication.

Specifically, AC BidCo supplements the orbital debris mitigation information for the APSTAR-6C
spacecraft to note that the mass of helium in each of the three sealed tanks will be 1.3 kg at the
satellite’s end of life. An updated copy of the table found on page 4 of the orbital debris
mitigation statement (page 49 of the attachments to the Modification Application) is below:


Ms. Marlene H. Dortch                        -2-                                   May 8, 2019


AC BidCo requests that the Commission take this update into account in processing the
Modification Application. Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this matter.

Respectfully submitted,

/s/ Karis A. Hastings

Counsel for AC BidCo LLC
