Intelsat requested a 180-day extension to consummate the transfer of control of some of Intelsat’s earth and space station licenses. Intelsat would like until Feb. 2 to complete the transfer, it said in a request Wednesday (http://bit.ly/1s7rqT5). Granting the request will serve the public interest by allowing Intelsat an opportunity to complete the transfer “in a time frame consistent with current business and market considerations,” it said.
