Eutelsat Communications confirmed today that it has signed launch agreements with Sea Launch for two launch opportunities as part of its ongoing satellite deployment programme for which launches are scheduled from the middle of 2008.

These agreements, together with the two agreements already in place with Arianespace, complete the launch service requirements for the four Eutelsat satellites to be launched from 2008 to 2009. They comprise W2M, HOT BIRD� 9 and W2A, which are already under procurement, and the planned W7 satellite.

The specific satellites to be launched by Sea Launch have not yet been assigned by Eutelsat. This flexibility, together with sourcing of launch services through multiple launch agencies enables the Group to ensure timely delivery into orbit of its new satellites under procurement.
