                                   Clarksburg, Maryland Earth Station (€000296)

                   Dear Ms. Dortch:

                         lntelsat LLC herein requests a grant of Special Temporary Authority from
                  June 2 1, 2004 through August 2 1, 2004 to provide tracking, telemetry and
                  command (ll&C) LEOP (launch and early orbit phase) services by the above-
                  referenced earth station in support of the Telstar-18 satellite which is currently
                  scheduled for launch on or about June 22, 2004. In support of its request, lntelsat
                  LLC submits the following information:

                           lntelsat LLC uses this earth station to support various satellite launches.
                  lntelsat LLC herein requests a grant of Special Temporary Authority to permit it to
                  provide lT&C LEOP services in support of the Telstar-18 launch via the above-
                  referenced earth station. There will be no provision of communications services,
                  only l l & C LEOP will be provided.

                          The l l & C LEOP services to be provided by lntelsat LLC will be entirely
                  consistent with its radio station license and fully compatible with the earth station's
                  electromagnetic environment. These TT&C LEOP services will not cause harmful
                  interference into any lawfully operating earth station. In the extremely unlikely
                  event that such interference should occur, lntelsat LLC will take all reasonable steps
                  to eliminate the interference.

                           The frequency power usage will be coordinated with all existing satellites in
                  orbit, which use the same frequency bands, and are in the satellite's path. All other
                  satellite operators in that path will be provided with an emergency phone number
                  where the licensee can be reached in the event that harmful interference occurs.

"government of the country to which" the Telstar 1S/ApstarV/Tongasat space station is
subject. Operations of earth station call sign E000296 are expressly conditioned upon
that space station (or those space stations) having been licensed by the government of the
country to which the station is subject.
