EXHIBIT A INTELSAT NORTH AMERICA LLC SPECIAL TEMPORARY AUTHORITY REQUEST' NEW 9.2m KA—BAND EARTH STATION _— RIVERSIDE, CALIFORNIA December 4, 2009

Exhibit A Response to Form 312, Question 43 Intelsat North America LLC ("Intelsat") requests Special Temporary Authority ("STA") to test a new 9.2m Ka—band antenna that will be located at its existing Riverside, CA ‘teleport. Intelsat requests this STA for a period of 30 days, beginning March 22, 2010. During testing, the Ka—band antenna will transmit in the band 29500—30000 MHz and receive in the band 19700—20200 MHz. During testing, the antenna will communicate with Galaxy 28 at 89° W.L. Galaxy 28 will be used for antenna gain patterns verification — transmit and receive in both azimuth and elevation in both polarizations (linear and circular) —— and for cross—polarization patterns verification. The relevant technical parameters are captured in FCC Form 312, Schedule B, which is included as Exhibit B. Representative antenna patterns from the manufacturer are provided as Exhibit C. As demonstrated by the antenna manufacturer‘s measurements, the antenna complies with the antenna gain patterns specified in Section 25.209(a) and (b). Further, the proposed parameters for testing the new antenna are in compliance with the off—axis EIRP density mask of 25.138. A new radiation hazard report is included as Exhibit D. The proposed antenna is exempt from notification to the FAA under Section 17.14(a) of the FCC‘s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 17.14(a). See also 47 C.F.R. § 25.113(c). The proposed antenna will be located in the existing Riverside, CA teleport and will be shielded by existing structures of a permanent and substantial character,. There are several FCC— licensed earth station antennas located in the teleport at the proposed site that are at heights above ground level that are comparable to or greater than the height above ground level of the antenna proposed in the instant application. (See e.g., Call Sign EO60384, Call Sign EO60388, and Call Sign E020314.) Under these circumstances, it is evident that the proposed antenna will not adversely affect safety in air navigation.

. ‘ Exhibit D Radiation Hazard Report Page 1 of 5 Analysis of Non—lonizing Radiation for a 9.2—Meter Earth Station System This report analyzes the non—ionizing radiation levels for a 9.2—meter earth station system. The analysis and calculations performed in this report comply with the methods described in the FCC Office of Engineering and Technology Bulletin, No. 65 first published in 1985 and revised in 1997 in Edition 97—01. The radiation safety limits used in the analysis are in conformance with the FCC R&O 96—326. Bulletin No. 65 and the FCC R&O specifies that there are two separate tiers of exposure limits that are dependant on the situation in which the exposure takes place and/or the status of the individuals who are subject to the exposure. The Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) limits for persons in a General Population/Uncontrolled environment are shown in Table 1. The General Population/Uncontrolled MPE is a function of transmit frequency and is for an exposure period of thirty minutes or less. The MPE limits for persons in an Occupational/Controlled environment are shown in Table 2. The Occupational MPE is a function of transmit frequency and is for an exposure period of six minutes or less. The purpose of the analysis described in this report is to determine the power flux density levels of the earth station in the far—field, near—field, transition region, between the subreflector or feed and main reflector surface, at the main reflector surface, and between the antenna edge and the ground and to compare these levels to the specified MPEs.

Far Field Distance Calculation The distance to the beginning of the far field can be determined from the following equation: Distance to the Far Field Region R; = 0.60 D/A (1) — = 4993.8 m The maximum main beam power density in the far field can be determined from the following equation: P On—Axis Power Density in the Far Field S; =GP/(4 1 R;") (2) = 4,426 Wim* = 0.443 mWi/icm* 2. Near Field Calculation Power flux density is considered to be at a maximum value throughout the entire length of the defined Near Field region. The region is contained within a cylindrical volume having the same diameter as the antenna. Past the boundary of the Near Field region, the power density from the antenna decreases linearly with respect to increasing distance. The distance to the end of the Near Field can be determined from the following equation: Extent of the Near Field Ry = D/ (4 A) (3) - = 2080.7 m ' The maximum power density in the Near Field can be determined from the following equation: — Near Field Power Density _ Sy = 16.0 1 P / (@D") (4) = 10.332 W/im = 1.033 mW/cm* 3. Transition Region Calculation The Transition region is located between the Near and Far Field regions. The power density begins to decrease linearly with increasing distance in the Transition region. While the power density decreases inversely with distance in the Transition region, the power density decreases inversely with the square of the distance in the Far Field region. The maximum power density in the Transition region will not exceed that calculated for the Near Field region. The power density calculated in Section 1 is the highest power density the antenna can produce in any of the regions away from the antenna. The power density at a distance R, can be determined from the following equation: ' Transition Region Power Density S; 11 Snf Rnf/ Rt (5) 1.033 mW/cm* I1

Exhibit D Radiation Hazard Report Page 3 of 5 4. Region between the Main Reflector and the Subreflector Transmissions from the feed assembly are directed toward the subreflector surface, and are reflected back toward the main reflector. The most common feed assemblies are waveguide flanges, horns or subreflectors. The energy between the subreflector and the reflector surfaces can be calculated by determining the power density at the subreflector surface. This can be determined from the following equation: { Power Density at the Subreflector Ssr = 4000 P / Ag (6) = 176.284 mWicm* 5. Main Reflector Region The power density in the main reflector is determined in the same manner as the power ‘density at the subreflector. The area is now the area of the main reflector aperture and can be determined — from the following equation: — Power Density at the Main Reflector Surface Sgurtace 7 4 P / Asurtace j (7) = 24.069 W/im* ~ , = 2.407 mW/icm* 6. Region between the Main Reflector and the Gfound Assuming uniform illumination of the reflector surface, the power denS|ty between the antenna and the ground can be determined from the following equation: Power Density between Reflector and Ground Sqg = P / Asurface (8) © = 6.017 W/m" = 0.602 mW/cm*

Exhibit D Radiation Hazard Report Page 5 of 5 8. Conclusions Based upon the above analysis, it is concluded that FCC RF Guidelines have been exceeded in the specified region(s) of Table 4. The applicant proposes to comply with the Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) limits of 1.0 mW/cm**2 for the Uncontrolled Areas and the MPE limits of 5.0 mW/cm**2 for the Controlled Areas. The antenna will be installed at the Applicant’s teleport facility near Nuevo, California. The facility is surrounded by a fence, which will restrict any public access. The earth station will be marked with the standard radiation hazard warnings, as well as the area in the vicinity of the earth station to inform those in the general population, who might be working or otherwise present in or near the direct path of the main beam. The applicant will ensure that the main beam of the antenna will be pointed at least one diameter away from any building, or other obstacles in those areas that exceed the MPE levels. Since one diameter removed from the center of the main beam the levels are down at least 20 dB, or by a factor of 100, these potential hazards do not exist for either the public, or for earth statlon personnel. Finally, the earth station‘s operating personnel will not have access to areas that exceed the MPE levels, while the earth station is in operation. The transmitter will be turned off during periods of maintenance, so that the MPE standard of 5.0 mw/cm**2 will be complied with for those regions in close proximity to the main reflector, which could be occupied by operating personnel.
