X4Amendments In April 1994 Personal Communications Satellite Corporation (PCSAT) and Celsat America, Inc. (Celsat) filed applications to construct space stations that would utilize the 2 GHz band. These applications are summarized in the attached Appendix A.

Alternatively, these entities may file a letter of intent to provide satellite service in the 2 GHz Band in accordance with the procedures outlined in the  X 4Public Notice released by the Commission on April 16, 1997.  {ON' " ԍXSee Report No. SPB80 (released April 16, 1997). These procedures were approved by the Office of Management and Budget, OMB No. 30600772 (July 15, 1997)(# We do not intend to require space stations who are licensed by or are pursuing a license from another administration to obtain a separate (and duplicative) space station license from the United States before serving the U.S. market.  Xb4Filings Each conforming amendment, new application, or letter of intent must include a concrete, comprehensive proposal for its proposed system, describing in detail all pertinent technical, operational and ownership aspects of the system and its ability to proceed expeditiously with construction and launch. This should include the information specified in Section 25.114 of the Commission's Rules, 47 CFR  25.114. Those submitting letters of intent or earth station applications to operate with nonU.S. licensed satellites need not, however, file the financial information required under Section 25.114(c)(17) and (18) and Section 25.143(b)(2) through 25.114(b)(3) for systems already inorbit and operating. For nonU.S. satellite systems that have already completed coordination through the International Telecommunication Union, it is not necessary to file technical information specified in Section 25.114(c)(5) through 25.114(c)(11) and Section 25.114(c)(14), unless the technical characteristics of the proposed system differ from the characteristics established in the ITU coordination process.  X 4 Pursuant to Section 25.155 of the rules, 47 C.F.R. 25.155, interested parties wishing to file: (1) amendments to existing U.S. space station applications; (2) new U.S. space station applications, (3) earth station applications to operate in the United States, or (4) letters of intent to use nonU.S. licensed space stations to be considered in the First 2 GHz Band  X!4Processing Round must do so on or before August 21, 1997 . Proposals that fail to provide"!"0*%%ZZ " all required information in their filings as of the cut-off date will be dismissed as unacceptable for filing. Proposals should also include the appropriate filing fee.

X_'  XH'Personal Communications Satellite Corporation `(#File Nos. 24/25SATP94 ă On April 7, 1994, PCSAT, a whollyowned subsidiary of American Mobile Satellite Corporation (AMSC), filed an application to construct two communications satellites for the provision of Mobile Satellite Service (MSS) in the 2 GHz band. The proposed PCSAT  X 4system consists of a communications satellite in the arc between 98o and 104o W.L., that would permit PCSAT to serve Hawaii, Puerto Rico and Alaska with a single satellite, and an inorbit spare that would serve as a backup in case of catastrophic satellite failure. PCSAT proposes to use the 19701990 MHz band for the Earthtospace service link and the 21602180 MHz band for the spacetoEarth service link. PCSAT proposes to use the 12,57112,901 MHz band for feederlinks in the Earthtospace direction and the 11,20211,352 MHz band for feederlinks in the spacetoEarth direction.  X' Celsat America, Inc. `(#File Nos. 26/27/28DSSP94  X'`Y(#64/65/66SATAMEND96 ă On April 8, 1994, Celsat America (Celsat) filed an application for authority to construct, launch and operate its hybrid mobile satellite system. The proposed Celsat system consists  X4of three geostationary communications satellites in orbits at 109.2o W, 89o W and 78o W to operate as a constellation to serve the United States, including Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico/U.S. Virgin Islands, and U.S. coastal waters that would later be operated as part of an integrated mobile hybrid space/ground personal communications system. In its April 8, 1994 application, Celsat requested authorization to construct its satellites to be operated in the following bands: 19701990 MHz (mobile uplink); 21602180 MHz (mobile downlink); 10.710.95 GHz (feeder uplinks); and 12.7513.00 GHz (feeder downlinks). On January 19, 1996, Celsat filed an amendment application clarifying that it seeks authority to construct a geostationary satellite system that will operate on 20 MHz (uplink) and 20 MHz (downlink)  X4within the 19902025 MHz and 21652200 MHz bands.X yOT"' "I #X\  P6G;P#эCelsat America also filed certain information that it stated reflects an increased noncontrolling ownership  x* interest and financial commitments by Celsat America's existing minority investor, Cellular Communications, Inc. and a notification of change of address and telephone number.
