the “Motion”) filed by the International Telecommunications Satellite Organization (the “ITSO”); 

and this Court having jurisdiction over this matter pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 157 and 1334 and the 

Standing Order of Reference from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of 

Virginia, dated August 15, 1984; and this Court having found that it may enter a final order 

consistent with Article III of the United States Constitution; and this Court having found that venue

the above-captioned debtors and debtors in possession (collectively, the “Debtors”) having 

consented to the relief requested herein; and after due deliberation and sufficient cause appearing 

therefor, it is HEREBY ORDERED THAT: 

1. The automatic stay of section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code is hereby modified,

Arbitration (the “ICC”), to proceed in its entirety and as to all of ITSO’s claims.

2. For the avoidance of doubt, the automatic stay of section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy

capacity as a debtor-in-possession. 

3. Both the Debtors and ITSO reserve all rights as to classification and payment of 

any interim or final award entered by the ICC in the Arbitration, and in all other respects, including,

Court based upon any interim or final funding award. 

4. This Court shall retain exclusive jurisdiction with respect to any efforts to enforce 

any monetary award entered by the ICC in the Arbitration.
