                          Re:     Request for Extension of Closing Deadline; Transfer of Control of
                                  Satellite Earth Stations E000696, E000726, £980076, EO20071,
                                  E000152, and E000102; File No. SES—T/C—20050203—00136

                          Dear Ms. Dortch:

                          New Skies Satellites B.V. ("NSSBV") and New Skies Satellites Holdings, Ltd.
                          ("New Skies Holdings"), by their attorneys, respectfully request additional time to
                          complete the pro forma transfer of control of the above—referenced earth station
                          licenses held by New Skies Networks, Inc. ("New Skies Networks"). On February
                          25, 2005, the International Bureau authorized a pro forma transfer of control of the
                          earth station licenses from NSSBV, New Skies Networks® current parent company,
                          to New Skies Holdings, a newly formed holding company, pursuant to a corporate
                          reorganization and planned initial public offering of New Skies Holdings. Pursuant
                          to Section 25.119 of the Commission‘s rules, the deadline for consummating this
                          transaction is 60 days after authorization.‘ Thus, the closing deadline is Tuesday,
                          April 26, 2005.

                          An extension is needed because not all of the conditions to the closing of the
                          transaction have yet been satisfied. Specifically, the parties are still waiting for
                          approval of the corporate reorganization and initial public offering from the United
                          States Securities and Exchange Commission. The parties cannot close the
                          transaction before obtaining this additional regulatory approval.

                          Accordingly, NSSBV and New Skies Holdings respectfully request an additional 60
                          days, until Monday, June 27, 2005, in which to consummate the transaction.




                          147 C.F.R. §25.119.
