Intelsat‘s license for the E080011 antenna allows commumcanons in these bands to an Intelsat satellite at this point of communication." Intelsat is using this antenna to support C—band customers previously on Intelsat 603 that have temporarily been transferred to the NSS—5 satellite upon the latter satellite‘s arrival at 20° W.L. As the Commission is aware, NSS—5 has replaced Intelsat 603 at 20° W.L.* Because the NSS—5 satellite has not yet . been granted U.S. market access, this STA extension request seeks authority _ for the E080011 earth station to continue to communicate temporarily with a Dutch—licensed satellite. Intelsat incorporates herein by reference the market _ Intelsat has filed this STA request, an FCC Form 159, a $175.00 filing fee and this supporting letter electronically via the Intema’aonal Bureau‘s Filing ~ System ("IBFS"). 2 See Satellite Communications Services Informatzon Actions Taken, Report No. SES—01223, File No. SES—STA—20100217—00209 (Mar. 3, 2010) (Public Notice); Intelsat North America LLC Requestfor Extension ofSpecial Temporary Authority, File No. SES—STA—20100323—00350 (stamp grant issued by Kathyrn Medley on Apr. 14, 2010 with condition). ‘ ?

Ms. Marlene H. Dortch April 21, 2010 Page 2 access showmg made by New Skies Satellites BV. in its market access | petmon ~— Grant of this STA further extension request will not result in risk of harmful interference into any lawfully operating facility.. The antenna will continue to communicate with the NSS—5 satellite in accordance with the technical parameters of its current license. In the extremely unlikely event that harmful interference should occur, Intelsat will take all reasonable steps to eliminate ‘the interference. Grant of this STA further extension request will ensure continuity of service to those Intelsat C—band customers temporarily relocated from Intelsat 603 to the . NSS—5 satellite. Grant of thisrequest will thereby serve the public interest. Moreover, the STA is only required for a brief period of time and Intelsat does not anticipate needing any further extensions as Intelsat plans to transition these customers off ofNSS—5 onto other Intelsat satellites operating at nearby orbital locations by the May 26, 2010 end date sought herein. Please direct any questions regérding this STA extension request to the undersigned at (202) 944—7848. Respectfully submitted, @J@;Cflu& Susan H.
