S2873SAT-PPL-20120823-00140 E Petition for Declaratory Ruling to be Added to the Permitted List 08/23/2012 10:16:43:12000Date Filed: Satelites Mexicanos S. A. de C. V. Satélites Mexicanos, S.A. de C.V. requests to add its Satmex 8 space station at the 116.8º W.L. orbital location to the Commission's Permitted Space Station List in the 3700-4200 MHz (space-to-Earth), 5925-6425 MHz (Earth-to-space), 11.7-12.2 GHz (space-to-Earth), and 14.0-14.5 GHz (Earth-to-space) frequency bands.

S2144SAT-T/C-20120817-00139 E TO: GEOEYE, INC.FROM: Current Licensee: WorldView, LLC GEOEYE LICENSE CORP. Transfer of Control 08/17/2012 19:09:44:51300Date Filed: WorldView, LLC This application seeks consent for Worldview, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Digital Globe, Inc. (Digital Globe), to acquire control of space station licenses held by GeoEye License Corp., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of GeoEye, Inc (GeoEye). The transaction involves Digital Globe acquiring GeoEye and its subsidiaries' assets and operations. DigitalGlobe and GeoEye both operate satellite systems in the earth-exploration satellite service (EESS). They collect, process and distribute digital imagery of the Earth's land, oceans and atmosphere. Both DigitalGlobe and GeoEye serve commercial and governmental customers. Applicants claim that the merger is in the public interest because it will result in a stronger and more efficient U.S. provider of EESS and will not cause public interest harm because there is competition from global providers of earth imagery services, as well as aggregators of earth imagery such as Microsoft and Google. See also File No. SES-T/C-20120817-00761 concerning earth station licenses. The applicants request that additional licenses granted to GeoEye or any of its subsidiaries prior to consummation be included within the scope of any approval.
