Item 8.01 Other Events.

On February 9, 2010, the Supreme Court of the State of New York granted the motion of Loral Space & Communications Inc. (the "Company" or "Loral") for partial summary judgment and declared that the $19.4 million in fees and expenses previously paid by Loral to plaintiffs’ attorneys in the Delaware shareholder derivative litigation entitled In re: Loral Space and Communications Inc. Consolidated Litigation (the "Delaware Fee Award") is covered under Loral’s directors and officers liability insurance policy. At the same time, the Court denied the insurers’ motion for partial summary judgment seeking a declaration that the Delaware Fee Award is not covered. The insurers may file a notice of appeal of the decision to an appellate court. Other issues in the case, including Loral’s counterclaims asserting coverage for certain defense fees and expenses that the insurers have disclaimed and certain affirmative defenses raised by the insurers, remain subject to litigation.
