FCC ordered Intelsat to disclose confidential information about operations. Intelsat didn’t want to release information in draft Shareholders Agreement and Bylaws sought by outside sources. PanAmSat had filed petition reminding FCC that information Intelsat attempted to protect was provided routinely by other companies. Commission said information was needed to be made public to help others participate in rulemaking. FCC also extended deadline for comments to Feb. 22 and reply comments March 12.
