              Dear Ms. Dortch:

            ~ Temporary Authority ("STA")‘ for 30 days —— from August 25, 2010 through
              September 23, 2010 —— to use its Ellenwood, Georgia Ku—band earth station ——
              call sign E940532 —— to provide telemetry, tracking and command ("TT&C")
              services to the Intelsat 11 satellite at 43.0° W.L.

              The Intelsat 11 TT&C operations will be performed in the following frequency
              bands:

                   e    13246.5 MHz and 13995.5 MHz in the uplink, and
                   e    11448 MHz and 11449 MHz in the downlink.

              The TT&C operations at 43.0° W.L. are complianf with PanAmSat‘s
              coordination agreements governing operations at that .location.

             In further support of this request, PanAmSat is attaching Exhibit A and B,
             which contain technical information concerning the TT&C operations.
              PanAmSat notes that the proposed TT&C operations will be within the
              antenna‘s licensed parameters. In addition, the proposed operations will
              comply with the two—degree spacing requirements set forth in Section
              25.211(d)(2) of the FCC‘s rules. As such, the operations of other lawfully
              operating terrestrial radio communications facilities will not be subject to
              electromagnetic interference levels above the levels that they would receive
            . under normal operation in accordance with the terms of their licenses.

              Grant of this STA request will allow PanAmSat to continue required TT&C
              operations for the IS 11 satellite, while it conducts the antenna swap needed to
              accommodate customers whose current antenna is in need of replacement
