           Re:        Request for Special Temporary Authority
                      Napa, California C/Ku—band Earth Station Testing

           Dear Ms. Dortch:

           Intelsat License LLC ("Intelsat") herein requests a grant of Special Temporary
           Authority‘ for 30 days, from May 25, 2011 through June 23, 2011, to test a 1.2
           meter Ku—band antenna." Specifically, Intelsat intends to communicate with its
           Galaxy 16 satellite at 99.0° W.L. in the following frequencies: 14002—14038
           MHz (uplink) and 11702—11738 MHz (downlink). During the testing, the
           antenna will be located at Intelsat‘s Napa, California teleport.

           Intelsat seeks to test the feasibility of the antenna for certain services and to
           conduct some of the testing during an upcoming customer marketing event.
           Because the proposed testing will assist Intelsat in meeting customer demand
           for service, grant of this STA request is in the public interest.

           In support of this request, Intelsat is attaching Exhibit A, which contains
           information showing that the operation of the earth station will be compatible
           with its electromagnetic environment and will not cause harmful interference
           into any lawfully operating facility. Specifically, Annex 1 and Section a) of
           Annex 2 of Exhibit A provide the characteristics of the proposed
           transmissions. The transmitted eirp density of —25.8 dBW/4 kHz will be less
           than the value of —14 dBW/4kHz at which the antenna complies with Section
           25.218 of the FCC‘s rules, according to the statement provided by the antenna
           manufacturer and reproduced in Section b), Annex 2 of Exhibit A. The
           radiation levels generated by the antenna will be within safety limits, according
           to a statement provided by the antenna manufacturer and reproduced in Section
           c), Annex 2 of Exhibit A. In the extremely unlikely event that


           ‘ Intelsat 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").
           * The Ku—band antenna that will be tested is mounted on the back of a 2.4
           meter C—band antenna, with a switchable feed. Intelsat intends to seek separate
           authority to utilize the C—band antenna portion of this combined device.

 eliminate the interference.
