TT&C operations will continue to be performed in the following frequencies: 12198.25 MHz,
12198.75 MHz, 13997.5 MHz, and 14499.5 MHz. The TT&C operations at 76.2° W.L. will continue
to be consistent with Intelsat’s coordination agreements for the nominal 76.2° W.L. orbital location.
In the unlikely event that harmful interference occurs, Intelsat will take all necessary steps to eliminate
the interference.

In further support of this request, Intelsat incorporates by reference Exhibit A submitted with its
