12. Description Intelsat North America LLC herein requests a grant of Special Temporary Authority for 30 days, beginning February 26, 2010, to utilize its Clarksburg, Maryland C—band earth station, EO80011, to communicate with the NSS—5 satellite at 20 W.L. The antenna will transmit in the frequency band 5925—6425 MHz and will receive in the frequency band 3700—4200 MHz to/from NSS—5 at 20 W.L.

February 17, 2010 Ms. Marlene H Dortch Secretary Federal Commumcauons Commission 445 12"" Street, S.W. . Washington, D.C. 20554 Re: Request for Special Temporary Authority — Clarksburg, Maryland C—band Earth Station EO80011 Dear Ms. Dortch: e Intelsat North America LLC (“Intelsat”) herein requests a grant of Special Temporary Authority ("STA")‘ for 30 days, beginning February 26, 2010, to vtilize its Clarksburg, Maryland C—band earth station to communicate with the Dutch—licensed NSS—5 satellite at 20° W.L. The antenna will transmit in the frequency band 5925—6425 MHz and will receive in the frequency band 3700— . 4200 MHz to/from NSS—5 at 20° W.L. Intelsat‘s license for the E080011 antenna allows communications in these bands to an Intelsat satellite at this point of communication." Intelsat plans to use this antenna to support C—band customers on Intelsat 603 that will temporarily transfer to the NSS—5 satellite upon the latter satellite‘s arrival at 20° W.L. As the Commission is aware, NSS—5 will soon replace Intelsat 603 at 20° W.L.* Because the NSS—5 satellite has not yet been granted U.S. market access, this STA request seeks authority for the E080011 earth station to communicate temporarily with a Dutch—licensed satellite. Intelsat incorporates herein by reference the market access showing made by New Skies Satellites B.V. in its market —access petition.* Grant of this STA request will not result in risk of harmful interference into any lawfully operating facility. The antenna will communicate with the NSS—5 satellite in accordance with the technical parameters of its current license. In _ ‘ Intelsat has filed this STA request, an FCC Form 159, a $175.00 filing fee and this supporting letter electronically via the Internauonal Bureau‘s Fllmg System ("IBFS"). * — * See File No. SES—MFS—20090909—01136. * See Application ofIntelsat North Americafor Authority to Operate the Ku— band Frequencies ofthe NSS—5 Satellite at 340.0° E.L. (20.0° W.L.), File No.: SAT—LOA—20091208—00141 (filed Dec. 8, 2009); New Skies Satellites B.V.

Ms. Matrlene H. Dortch February 17, 2010 Pagg 2 the extremely unlikely event that barmfual interference should occur, Intelsat will take all reasonable steps to eliminate the interference. _ Grant of this STA request will enable Intelsat temporarily to relocate C—band customers currently operating on Intelsat 603 to the NSS—5 satellite, thus ensuring continuity of service to those customers. Grant of this STA request will thereby serve an immediate public interest. Moreover, the STA is only required for a brief period oftime. Intelsat plans to transition these customers . — quickly off ofNSS—5 onto other Intelsat satellites operating at nearby orbital locations. Intelsat respectfully requests expeditious treatment of this request to preserve continuity of service for these customers at 20° W.L. until they can be transitioned to other satellites. <I Please direct any questmns regardmg this STA request to the under81gned at (202) 944—7848. Respectfully submitted, @LQL& Susan H. Crandall . — Assistant General Counsel Intelsat Corporation co: Kathyrn Medley:
