                                            Attachment B

SES Americom, Inc. (“SES Americom”) seeks to withdraw a portion of the pending
requests for special temporary authority (“STA”), File Nos. SES-STA-20080521-
00667/68, to use its licensed earth stations at Brewster, WA, Call Signs E990067 and
E990068, to participate in testing of a U.K.-licensed geostationary mobile satellite
services (“MSS”) satellite, ICO G1, at 92.85° W.L. In addition, SES Americom submits
as Attachment C an acknowledgement from the local frequency coordinator for Brewster,
WA, that the planned operations have received concurrence from BAS licensees in
Eastern Washington State, provided that daily reports are submitted to the local
frequency coordinator by the ICO G1 operator.

Specifically, SES Americom asked to transmit and receive S-band signals in the 2000-
2015 MHz frequency band in the uplink, and in the full 2180-2200 MHz frequency band
in the downlink. For purposes of this STA request, SES Americom hereby withdraws its
request to receive S-band signals in the 2180-2200 MHz frequency band. The tables
containing the relevant technical parameter that were previously submitted would instead
read as follows:
