On April 29, 2011, Intelsat Jackson Holdings S.A. (“Intelsat Jackson”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Intelsat S.A., and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), executed a fourth supplemental indenture (the “Fourth Supplemental Indenture”), amending and supplementing the Indenture dated as of October 20, 2009 (the “Indenture”), with respect to Intelsat Jackson’s 8 1/2% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “Notes”). The Fourth Supplemental Indenture amends the Indenture to allow Intelsat Jackson, as permitted by the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to issue Notes without a Restricted Notes Legend (as defined in the Indenture) in exchange for a like principal amount of Notes that bear a Restricted Notes Legend.
In accordance with the terms of the Indenture as amended and supplemented by the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, on April 29, 2011, Intelsat Jackson completed a mandatory exchange of all of the existing Notes that bear a Restricted Notes Legend (CUSIP Nos. 458207AG2 and G4804YAC2) for Notes that do not bear a Restricted Notes Legend (CUSIP No. 458207AH0). As a result of the mandatory exchange, the Notes are now “freely tradable” without a Restricted Notes Legend and related transfer restrictions.
The foregoing description of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 4.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
