Ses Want Frequency Of Eutelsat

-http://www.spacenews...-escalates.html--


PARIS — Satellite fleet operator Eutelsat on Oct. 16 widened its dispute with rival SES about rights to 500 megahertz of satellite bandwidth over Europe by announcing it had requested arbitration at the International Chamber of Commerce.
This new proceeding is in addition to an existing arbitration between Paris-based Eutelsat and customer Media Broadcast, which plans to end a Eutelsat contract in 2013 and to take both its business and 500 megahertz of German-registered frequency assignments with it to SES.
The 500 megahertz in question, equivalent to nearly 14 transponders, are distributed around 28 degrees east over Europe, which in satellite-bandwidth terms is among the highest-priced stretches of orbital real estate.
Eutelsat is arguing two points. The first is that, although Media Broadcast has a right to end its contract with Eutelsat in October 2013, it does not have authority to take the 500 megahertz of capacity with it.
Eutelsat’s second point is that Luxembourg-based SES has no right to abrogate the 1999 Intersystem Coordination Agreement between the two satellite operators — the complex arrangement governs operations of multiple satellite slots over Europe — by taking 500 megahertz of capacity that was part of the deal.
In an Oct. 17 interview, Eutelsat spokeswoman Vanessa O’Connor said the 1999 agreement, which has provided a framework for SES-Eutelsat relations since, has no end date and gives as many benefits to SES as to Eutelsat. Ending it, she said, would pose as many risks for SES as for Eutelsat.

so it seems to me that EUTELSAT are saying they can be kicked off the team but they want to take the ball with em ???

money money money ... €2,500,000 x 15 years x 14 transponders

€400,000,000 !!!!!

SES STATEMENT ON ADDITIONAL SATELLITE SPECTRUM AT THE 28.5 DEGREES EAST ORBITAL POSITION


Luxembourg, 16 October 2012 - SES has been granted rights to use German Ku-band orbital frequencies at the 28.5ºE orbital position effective from October 4, 2013 onwards pursuant to a 2005 agreement with German media service provider, Media Broadcast (“MB”) (as successor to T-Systems Business Services). MB holds a license for these frequencies issued by the Bundesnetzagentur, the German regulator, on the basis of German filings that have priority under the rules of the ITU.
The agreement will give SES the right to use, on its fleet, 500 MHz of bandwidth at this orbital position adjacent to SES’s 28.2ºE in the frequency bands 11.45 – 11.70 GHz and 12.50 – 12.75 GHz in downlink and 14.00-14.50 GHz in uplink. SES has procured and will launch and operate new satellites (ASTRA 2E and ASTRA 2G) at 28.2ºE/28.5ºE, along with the recently launched ASTRA 2F satellite, to replace SES’s existing fleet at 28.2ºE and to provide new capacity. The new satellites in this neighbourhood will use the additional frequency spectrum as of October 2013 for DTH satellite television services in the U.K. and Ireland and for other services inside and outside of Europe.
Eutelsat is currently operating these frequencies on the Eurobird-1 satellite (also known as Eutelsat 28A) under a 1999 agreement with Deutsche Telekom AG (“DTAG”), the former license holder of these rights before it transferred its satellite activity to MB in 2002. Eutelsat has commenced arbitral proceedings against DTAG and MB in April 2011, claiming that it has the rights to use these frequencies beyond October 2013.
Eutelsat also disputes the grant of right of use of these frequencies by MB to SES. SES strongly disagrees with Eutelsat’s position and will vigorously defend its right to use these frequencies from October 4, 2013 on the basis, among other things, that Eutelsat’s rights to these frequencies will expire on October 3, 2013, that nothing prevents SES from using these frequencies as of October 4, 2013 and that the filings pursuant to which MB’s license for these frequencies was issued by the Bundesnetzagentur have priority under the rules of the ITU.
The launches of ASTRA 2E and ASTRA 2G are scheduled for 2013 and 2014, respectively.
