 that 
 it 
 used 


 for 
 Standardized

 (it 
 only 


 showed 


 U.

 We, 
 then, 


 assume 


 that 
 an 
 equal 


 amount 


 of

 will 
 be 
 used 


 for

 by

 Our 
 40% 
 assumption 


 is 
 based 


 on 
 Comsat's 


 approximate 


 20% 
 ownership 


 share 
 of 
 INTELSAT. 


 We 
 doubled 


 Comsat's 


 ownership 


 share 
 to 
 reflect 


 capacity 


 from 
 the 
 United 


 States 


 to 
 foreign 


 countries, 


 and 
 the 
 capacity 


 for 
 return 


 paths. 


 Our 
 60% 
 assumption 


 is 
 based 


 on 
 Comsat's 


 August 
 25 
 letter. 


 On 
 page 


 4 
 of 


 that 


 letter, 


 Comsat 


 states 
 that 
 approximately 


 500 
 of 
 827 


 transponders 


 (500/  827= 
 60%) 
 can 
 be 
 used 


 to 
 provide 


 coverage 


 to 
 the 


 United 


 States.

 Figure

 (estimated 


 from 
 the 
 graph). 


 This 
 new 
 updated 


 figure 
 has 
 been 


 roughly 


 increased 


 by 
 3.5 


 units. 


 In 
 COMSAT's 


 original 
 comments, 


 the 
 direct 


 access 


 capacity 


 figure 
 showed 


 approximately 


 6.5 
 of 
 36 


 MHz 


 units. 


 INTELSAT's 


 uncommitted 
 capacity 
 is 
 reduced 


 by 
 3.5 


 units 


 to 
 reflect 


 COMSAT's 


 updates. 


 ** 
 COMSAT

 includes 
 all

 *** 
 Using 


 2000's 


 data, 
 however, 


 any 
 additional 


 Direct

 capacity 


 should 
 be 
 captured 


 in 
 the
