Call Sign E000700 FCC File No. SES-MOD-20021125-02060 Application to Modify Satellite Earth Station Dear Ms. Dortch: On November 20, 2002, MCYWorldCom, Inc. (“MCI”) requested Commission authority to add an additional point of communication to its earth station license in Andover, Maine (Call Sign, E000700). MCI sought authority for the addition of the Express-3A satellite as a permanent point of communication for the provision of two-way voice and data Fixed Satellite Service (“FSS”) between the United States and Russia, Azerbaijan and Cuba. In support of its application, MCI, through its counsel, herein provides a copy of a letter from the Russian Satellite Communications Company (“RSCC”), which explains the end-of-life disposal plan for the Express-3A satellite. The RSCC provided the letter to MCI’s legal counsel for the express purpose of disclosing it to the Federal Communications Commission in support of MCI’s above referenced earth station application. MCI is also providing as an attachment to this letter an English translation of the RSCC letter, which was prepared by MCI’s legal counsel. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Trifonov Managing Partner Squire, Sanders & Dempsey (Moscow) LLC Fax: 258-525 1 Re: The analysis of comments Dear Mr. Trifonov: I am writing to inform you that KA’ “Express-3A” is in geostationary orbit at 11” West longitude and holds this position with an accuracy of +0.05” for both longitude and latitude. This position is maintained through the use of an on-board engine unit, which includes the main and reserve engines that guarantee its reliable operation. After the operating life has come to an end, per obligatory procedures, the Satellite will be removed from its position in a controlled manner by elevating its orbit to a height of no less than 150 km above the geostationary orbit. Respectfully yours, [signature] V.P. Ganzhenko Deputy General Director for Space Programs I [Translator’s note - KA is an abbreviation for “Kosmichesky Apparat,” which means Space Apparatus.]
