S2156 SAT- MOD- 20050609- 00117 E Modification 06/ 09/ 2005 18: 18: 56: 94600 Date Filed: SES Americom, Inc. SES Americom, Inc. has filed an application for modification of its license for the AMC- 5 fixed- satellite space station to assign the satellite to the 78.95º W. L. orbital location. SES Americom seeks to operate at a slight offset from it currently assigned 79º W. L. orbit loation in order to simplify stationkeeping at this location. SES Americom’s Satcom C- 3 spacecraft has also been assigned to 79º W. L. (See File No. SAT- MOD- 20040814- 00159) and is currently being drifted toward that position. SES Americom is concurrently filing a modification application seeking authority to operate Satcom C- 3 centered at 79.05º W. L. (See File No. SAT- MOD- 20050609- 00118) S2447 SAT- MOD- 20050609- 00118 E Modification 06/ 09/ 2005 18: 19: 37: 00300 Date Filed: SES Americom, Inc.

Satcom C- 3 is currently being drifted toward its assigned 79º W. L. orbit location from 131º W. L. pursuant to authority granted by the Commission last year. (See File No. SAT- MOD- 20040814- 00159) SES Americom seeks to operate Satcom C- 3 at a slight offset from 79º W. L. in order to simplify stationkeeping at this location, where SES Americom’s AMC- 5 satellite also operates. SES Americom is concurrently filing a modification application seeking authority to operate AMC- 5 centered at 78.95º W. L. (See File No. SAT- MOD- 20050609- 00117) S2179 SAT- STA- 20050608- 00116 E Special Temporary Authority 06/ 08/ 2005 21: 00: 42: 02300 Date Filed: EchoStar Satellite L. L. C. EchoStar Satellite L. L. C. has filed an application for special temoporary authority to operate the EchoStar 9 satellite in the lower 500 MHz portion of the Ka- band frequencies - specifically, the 18.3- 18.8 GHz, 28.35- 28.6 GHz and 29.25- 29.5 GHz (lower Ka- band) frequencies - at the 121° W. L. orbital location, for a 30- day period. The EchoStar 9 spacecraft is already at located at 121° W. L. NOTE: Comments may be filed on or before June 21, 2005.
