Ms. Marlene H. Dortch October 24, 2018 Page 2 the earth station will be compatible with its electromagnetic environment and will not cause harmful interference into any lawfully operating terrestrial facility, or into federal systems operating in the 13.75-14.00 GHz band. 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 extension request will allow Intelsat to continue safely station-keep Intelsat 5 at its new location. This, in turn, will help meet a new service demand at the 137.0° W.L. orbital location and thereby promotes the public interest. Please direct any questions regarding this STA further extension request to the undersigned at (703) 559-6949. Respectfully submitted, /s/ Cynthia I Grady Cynthia J.
