Item 5. Other Events.
------------
The Company previously disclosed that on July 2, 2001 DIRECTV, Inc.
filed under seal a motion for summary judgment on its term claim. This claim
contends that the length of the agreement between the Company, through its
indirect subsidiaries, and the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative is
tied to the life of only one satellite, DBS-1. Oral argument on DIRECTV's motion
for summary judgment, originally scheduled for August 27, 2001, was held on
October 22, 2001. The court issued a written tentative ruling denying DIRECTV's
motion and took the motion under submission. A final ruling on the motion is
expected soon.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
