              Re:       Request for Special Temporary Authority
                        Fillmore, California C—band Earth Station E860175

              Dear Ms. Dortch:

              PanAmSat Licensee Corp. (“PanAmSat”) herein requests a grant of Special
              Temporary Authority ("STA")‘ for three days, from December 1, 2009 through
              December 3, 2009, to utilize its Fillmore, California C—band earth station to
              perform a semi—annual command and range test of emergency TT&C
              transmissions to the ICO—G1 satellite at 92.85° W.L.* Thetest will be
              conducted in the frequency bands 6424.5 MHz and 5925.5 MHz (uplink) and
              3701.5 MHz and 4198.5 MHz (downlink).

              PanAmSat‘s license for this antenna provides authority to use this antenna to
              provide emergency TT&C services to this satellite in these frequencies on a
              permanent basis for five days." The proposed test operations will be
              conducted in accordance with the parameters of the current license.
              Accordingly, the operation of the earth station for the proposed test will be
              compatible with the antenna‘s electromagnetic environment and will not cause
              harmful interference into any lawfully operating facility. In the extremely
              unlikely event that harmful interference should occur, PanAmSat will take all
              reasonable steps to eliminate the interference.

              Grant of this STA request will enable PanAmSat to assist ICO in ensuring the
              reliability of emergency TT&C services for the ICO—G1 satellite at 92.85°


              ‘ PanAmSat has filed this STA request, an FCC Form 159, a $175.00 filing fee
              and this supporting letter electronically via the International Bureau‘s Filing
              System ("IBFS").

              > Although the test is expected to last for one day, PanAmSat is asking for
              authority through December 3, 2009 to accommodate potential delay.

              * See Satellite Communications Services Information; Actions Taken, Report
              No. SES—01043, File No. SES—MFS—20080314—00306 (June 18, 2008).
              Operation beyond five days must be pursuant to STA.
