Conditions of Grant of SES—STA—20110922—01127 Call Sign E040125 Intelsat Licenses LLC is granted Special Temporary Authority to provide launch and early orbit phase services for the Intelsat 18 satellite that is expected to be launched on October 4, 2011. This grant is for the period beginning October 4, 2011 through November 2, 2011. The permanent orbital location for Intelsat 18 will be 180° E.L. The satellite will be in—orbit tested at 176° E.L. Operations will be performed in the following frequency bands: 6173.7, 850 and 6176.3 MHz (uplink) and 3947.5 and 3952.5 MHz (downlink). Earth station operations are limited to transmission and reception parameters coordinated within the parameters in the coordination report of this application under the following conditions. 1. All operations shall be on an unprotected and non—harmful interference basis, i.e., Intelsat shall not cause harmful interference to, and shall not claim protection from, interference caused to it by any other lawfully operating station. 2. In the event that there is a report of interference, Intelsat must immediately terminate transmissions and notify the FCC in writing. 3. Intelsat must comply with all FAA antenna height restrictions defined in 47 CFR Part 17. 4. The LEOP operations will be coordinated with all operators of satellites that use the same frequency bands and are in the LEOP path. All operators of satellites in that path will be provided with an emergency phone number where the licensee can be reached in the event that harmful interference occurs. The 24x7 contact information for the Intelsat 18 LEOP mission is as follows: Ph.: (202) 944—7701 — East Coast Operations Center (primary);(310) 525—5900 — West Coast Operations Center (back—up). Request to speak with Harry Burnham or Kevin Bell. 5. Intelsat must make all reasonable and customary measures to ensure that the earth station does not create a potential for harmful non—ionizing radiation to persons who may be in the vicinity of the earth station when it is in operation. At a minimum, permanent warning labels shall be fixed to the earth station and its housing warning of the radiation hazard and including a diagram showing the regions around the earth station where radiation levels could exceed 1 .OmW/cm2. The earth station operator shall be responsible for assuring that individuals do not stray into the regions around the earth station where there is a potential for exceeding the maximum permissible exposure limits required by 47 C.F.R. §1.1310. This shall be accomplished by means of signs, caution tape, verbal warnings, placement of the earth station so as to minimize access to the hazardous region, and/or other approprlatemeans A .e e 7 m) C’O//Zci/cz le‘Mth Coneffres" C n 5ES—STR—Actrpgaa —ottar 5&5{/l6ComDPee PYP9/2211 /Z/f = # /o/.o/{/ / 4(201(

Washington, D.C. 20554 INTELSAT Re: Request for Special Temporary Authority Riverside, California Earth Station EQO40125 Dear Ms. Dortch: Intelsat License LLC ("Intelsat") herein requests a grant of Special Temporary Authority ("STA*")‘ for 30 days, from October 4, 2011 through November 2, 2011, to use its Riverside, California earth station —— call sign EO40125 —— to provide launch and early orbit phase ("LEOP") services for the Intelsat 18 satellite that is expected to be launched on October 4, 2011. The LEOP period is expected to last approximately ten days." The Intelsat 18 LEOP operations will be performed in the following frequency bands: e 6173.7 MHz and 6176.3 MHz (LHCP) in the uplink, and e —3947.5 MHz and 3952.5 MHz (RHCP) in the downlink The LEOP operations will be coordinated with all operators of satellites that use the same frequency bands and are in the LEOP path. All operators of satellites in that path will be provided with an emergency phone number where the licensee can be reached in the event that harmful interference occurs. The 24x7 contact information for the Intelsat 18 LEOP mission is as follows: Ph.: (202) 944—7701 — East Coast Operations Center (primary) (310) 525—5900 — West Coast Operations Center (back—up) Request to speak with Harry Burnham or Kevin Bell. ‘ Intelsat has filed its STA request, an FCC Form 159, a $180.00 filing fee and this supporting letter electronically via the International Bureau‘s Filing System ("IBFS"). * The satellite‘s final orbital location will be 180.0° E.L.

Ms. Marlene H. Dortch September 22, 2011 Page 2 In further support of this request, Intelsat is attaching Exhibit A, which contains technical information concetning the Intelsat 18 LEOP operations. Intelsat notes that for purposes of the Intelsat 18 LEOP mission, it is seeking to operate in the frequencies listed in the request at power levels not to exceed 26.5 dBW. The technical information submitted with the STA request reflects a higher power level of 29.1 dBW, because that is the level at which Intelsat might operate in the event an emergency necessitates the use of a higher power level in order to command the satellite. In the extremely unlikely event that harmful interference should occur due to transmissions to or from its earth station, Intelsat will take all reasonable steps to eliminate the interference. Grant of this STA request will allow Intelsat to help launch the Intelsat 18 satellite to the 180.0° E.L. location. This, in turn, will help ensure continuity of service to customers at that location, thereby promoting the public interest.
