Washington, D.C. 20554 g’ INTELSAT Re: Request for Special Temporary Authority Ellenwood, Georgia Earth Station E940333 Dear Ms. Dortch: PanAmSat Licensee Corp. ("PanAmSat") herein requests a grant of Special Temporary Authority ("STA")‘ for 30 days —— from November 20, 2009 through December 19, 2009 —— to use its Ellenwood, Georgia earth station —— call sign E940333 —— to provide telemetry, tracking and command ("TT&C") services to the Intelsat 14 satellite while the satellite undergoes in—orbit testing (@TOT) at 47.0° W.L.*, is drifted to its final location," and operates at its final location.* Intelsat 14 is expected to be launched on November 14, 2009. The Intelsat 14 TT&C operations duriné I0T, drift, and on—station operation . will be performed in the following frequency bands: e —5927.0 MHz and 5932.0 MHz in the uplink, and 3709.0 MHz and 3710.0 MHz primary in the downlink 3704.0 MHz and 3705.0 MHz alternate in the dowalink. The TT&C operations during IOT, drift, and on—station operation have been _ coordinated with all potentially affected satellite operators that use the same frequency bands. All such satellite operators will be provided with an emergency phone number where the licensee can be reached in the event that harmful interference occurs. ‘PanAmSat has filed its STA request, an FCC Form 159, a $175.00 filing fee and this supporting letter electronically via the International Bureau‘s Filing System ("IBFS"). ‘ * See PanAmSat Licensee Corp. Requestfor Special Temporary Authority, File No. SAT—STA—20090825—00093 (filed Aug. 25, 2009). This request is pending. . > The satellite‘s final orbital location will be 45.0° W.L. See Policy Branch Information; Actions Taken, Report No. SAT—00637, File No. SAT—RPL— 20090123—00007 (Oct. 2, 2009) (Public Notice). * PanAmSat will shortly file a request to modify the license for E940333 to authorize permanent operations to 45.0° W.L.

Ms. Marlene H. Dortch October 7, 2009 Page 2 The 24x7 contact information for the TT&C operations during I0T, drift, and on—station operation is as follows: Guillermo Cabezas and Fernando Proano Ph.: (202) 944—7701 In further support of this request, PanAmSat is attaching Exhibit A, which contain‘s technical information concerning the TT&C operations during IOT;, drift, and on—station operation. PanAmSat also notes that for purposes of the TT&C during IOT, drift, and on—station operation, it is seeking to operate in the frequencies listed in the request at power levels not to exceed26.5 dBW. The technical information submitted with the STA request reflects a higher power level of 30 dBW, because that is the level at which PanAmSat might operate in the event an emergency necessitates the use of a higher power level in order to command the satellite. Grant of this STA request will allow PanAmSat to help in—orbit test the Intelsat 14satellite and place it at the 45.0° W.L. location. This, in turn, will help ensure continuity of service to customers at that location, thereby promotmg the public interest. Please direct any questions regarding this STA request to the undersigned at (202) 944—7848.
