All statements regarding our expected financial position and operating results, our business strategy, and our financing plans are forward-looking statements. These statements can sometimes be identified by our use of forward-looking words such as “may,” “will,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” or “intend.” These forward-looking statements reflect our plans, expectations, and beliefs and, accordingly, are subject to certain risks and uncertainties. We cannot guarantee that any of such forward-looking statements will be realized.

All of our subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements (or statements that may be attributed to us) are expressly qualified by the Cautionary Statements. You should carefully review the risk factors described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Our forward-looking statements are based on information available to us today, and we undertake no obligation to update these statements. Our actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed.

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure

On August 13, 2007, TerreStar Global Ltd. (“TerreStar Global”), a majority-owned subsidiary of TerreStar Corporation (formerly Motient Corporation) (“TerreStar”), issued a press release announcing that it intends to offer securities in a private offering. While neither the terms of the securities nor the amount of the proposed financing have been determined, TerreStar anticipates that the ultimate effect of the financing will be to dilute its ownership interest in TerreStar Global to below 50%. There can be no assurance that the financing will be completed. TerreStar Global intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to commence the construction of its satellite, TerreStar-EUR, to secure European 2 GHz MSS S-band spectrum through participation in the European milestone review process, and for general corporate purposes. Certain information about TerreStar Global is provided in Exhibit 99.2 attached hereto.

This announcement is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy TerreStar Global securities. TerreStar Global’s private offering, which is subject to market and other customary conditions, will be made within the United States only to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 and outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The securities have not been registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction, and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or an applicable exemption from the Securities Act.

This information is furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 of Form 8-K and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to liability under that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing. By filing this report on Form 8-K and furnishing this information, TerreStar makes no admission as to the materiality of any information in this report that is required to be disclosed solely by reason of Regulation FD.

Item 9.01. Exhibits

This information shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to liability under that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
