Use of Transponder Spares. The Satellite contains certain Ku-Band redundant equipment units (individually, a "Transponder Spare"), which are designed as substitutes for equipment units the failure of which could cause a Transponder to fail to meet the Transponder Performance Specifications. HCG, as soon as possible and to the extent technically feasible, shall employ a Transponder Spare in the Satellite as a substitute for Lessee's Transponder equipment unit that has caused any Lessee Transponder to suffer a Confirmed Failure (as defined in Section 12.02) in order to enable such Lessee Transponder to meet the Transponder Performance Specifications. To the extent technically feasible, a Transponder Spare will be substituted for the faulty equipment unit on a first-needed, first-served basis to satisfy HCG's obligations to Lessee and to other Owners or users of Transponders on the Satellite, if any, which have suffered Confirmed Failures; provided, however, that HCG's obligations to provide Transponder Spares shall continue until such time as all of the Transponder Spares are committed to use as substitutes for Transponders which have suffered Confirmed Failures. If HCG furnishes a Transponder Spare to Lessee as a substitute for an equipment unit that has caused Lessee's Transponder to suffer a Confirmed Failure, then such Transponder Spare shall become part of the Transponder which is leased to Lessee hereunder, and Lessee, concurrently, shall no longer have any right to lease or otherwise use the failed equipment unit. Lessee's Transponder equipment unit which has been returned shall be made available by HCG, to the extent technically feasible, to satisfy its obligations to any other Owners of Transponders on the Satellite. HCG also shall have the right, until the Transponder Spares are needed, to utilize such Transponder Spares in any manner HCG determines.

Use of Transponder Spares. The Satellite contains certain Ku-Band redundant equipment units (individually, a "Transponder Spare"), which are designed as substitutes for equipment units the failure of which could cause a Transponder to fail to meet the Transponder Performance Specifications. HCGPanAmSat, as soon as possible and to the extent technically feasible, shall employ a Transponder Spare in the Satellite as a substitute for Lessee's any Lessee Transponder equipment unit that has caused any Lessee Transponder to suffer a Confirmed Failure (as defined in Section 12.02) in order to enable such Lessee Transponder to meet the Transponder Performance Specifications. To the extent technically feasible, a Transponder Spare will be substituted for the faulty equipment unit on a first-needed, first-served basis to satisfy HCGPanAmSat's obligations to Lessee and to other Owners or users Users of Transponders on the Satellite, if any, which have suffered Confirmed Failures; provided, however, that HCGPanAmSat's obligations to provide Transponder Spares shall continue until such time as all of the Transponder Spares are committed to use as substitutes for Transponders which have suffered Confirmed Failures. If HCG PanAmSat furnishes a Transponder Spare to Lessee as a substitute for an equipment unit that has caused Lessee's a Lessee Transponder to suffer a Confirmed Failure, then such Transponder Spare shall become part of the Transponder which is leased to Lessee hereunder, and Lessee, concurrently, shall no longer have any right to lease or otherwise use the failed equipment unit. Lessee's Any Lessee Transponder equipment unit which has been returned shall be made available by HCGPanAmSat, to the extent technically feasible, to satisfy its obligations to any other Owners of Transponders on the Satellite. HCG Lessee agrees and acknowledges that the Transponder Spare redundancy plan of the Satellite may require PanAmSat to reassign certain TWTAs among Transponders to make use of spare equipment. In circumstances in which a Transponder Spare is required to be employed for any Owner and to do so requires a change in the TWTA assigned to Lessee, Lessee shall, on notice from PanAmSat, immediately cease transmitting to the Lessee Transponder using such TWTA to allow such reassignment and for a different TWTA (which must meet or exceed the applicable Transponder Performance specifications) to be assigned to such Lessee Transponder. PanAmSat also shall have the right, until the Transponder Spares are needed, to utilize such Transponder Spares in any manner HCG PanAmSat determines.
