                     Re:         Mobile Satellite Ventures Subsidiary LLC and
                                 Mobile Satellite Ventures (Canada) Inc.
                                 Motion to Withdraw Filings
                                 Proceedings Listed in Exhibits A and B

                     Dear Ms. Dortch: —

                            Mobile Satellite Ventures Subsidiary LLC ("MSV US") and Mobile Satellite Ventures
                     (Canada) Inc. ("MSV Canada")(collectively, "MSV*") hereby submit this letter in connection
                     with the application proceedings, FCC authorizations, and rulemaking proceedings (collectively,
                     "Proceedings") referenced in Exhibits A and B. In those Proceedings, MSV has opposed the
                     grant of access to Inmarsat satellites. Mobile Satellite Ventures LP, MSV Canada;, and Inmarsat
                     Global Limited ("Inmarsat"), however, recently entered into a long—term coordination agreement
                  regarding the operation of Inmarsat‘s and MSV s satellite communications systerms in North
                  America. Pursuant to that agreement, and subject to it being accepted by the relevant
                  Administrations (United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom), MSV withdraws all of its
                  filings in the Proceedings listed in Exhibit A and supports the grant of the listed applications.
                  Subject to the same proviso, MSV also withdraws all of its interoperator interference complaints
                . with the FCC regarding Inmarsat and states that it would not object to the grant of authority for
                  Inmarsat to operate in any part of the L band in a manner consistent with the coordination
                  agreement.

                             Further, pursuant to the coordination agreement, Inmarsat and others are withdrawing
                     filings submitted in the Proceedings listed in Exhibit B. In light of, and subject to, those
                     withdrawals, MSV withdraws all of its pleadings in those Proceedings, to the extent they are in
                     response to the arguments and pleadings being withdrawn by Inmarsat and others. See attached
                     Exhibit B. MSV preserves for the record of those Proceedings its arguments and pleadings that
                     respond to other filings that remain on the record.
