Item 8.01.     Other Events         

 

                On July 24, 2009, SkyTerra Communications Inc. (“SkyTerra”) selected a new launch window for its SkyTerra-1 satellite of August through October 2010 (as compared to the previous March - May 2010 window).

 

The current launch window selection is based upon a potential delay in delivery of SkyTerra-1 after receiving the most recent estimated delivery information from Boeing Satellite Systems (the manufacturer of the SkyTerra-1 satellite).  Based on such recent estimates and subject to ongoing active efforts to mitigate the potential delay, SkyTerra-1’s delivery is scheduled for the second quarter of 2010.

 

SkyTerra will file a request with the U.S. Federal Communications Commission to extend its satellite launch milestone date outlined in its authorization for the launch of its SkyTerra-1 satellite consistent with this window.  The change in the launch window does not increase the program's costs.  The launch of SkyTerra-2 continues to be expected to occur in the fourth quarter of 2010 or the first quarter of 2011.
