Re:        The Boeing Company
           Application for Modification of Earth Station License
           File No. SES-MOD-20120403-00326

Dear Ms. Dortch:

        The Boeing Company (“Boeing”), through its counsel and in response to a request by
Iridium Satellite LLC (“Iridium”), is filing the attached technical analysis to further confirm that the
continued operation of Boeing’s satellite earth station, call sign E100106, using portions of the
29.25 – 29.3 GHz band will not be a source of harmful interference to Iridium’s feeder links.

         Iridium has been given an opportunity to review the attached analysis and has informed
Boeing that it will indicate to the Commission that it no longer seeks the dismissal or denial of
Boeing’s application to modify its earth station to include ALSATs as its authorized points of
communication. Iridium had sought the dismissal of Boeing’s application in a petition that was
filed with the Commission on June 15, 2012,1 which Boeing opposed on June 28, 2012.2

           Please contact the undersigned if you have any questions about this submission.

                                                                                Sincerely,




                                                                                Bruce A. Olcott
                                                                                Counsel to The Boeing Company
