Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 31, 2009, our wholly owned subsidiary, Colorado Satellite Broadcasting, Inc., a Colorado corporation ("CSB"), entered into an amendment (the "Third Amendment") to its Satellite Capacity Lease (as amended to date, the "Lease") with Transponder Encryption Services Corporation ("TESC"), which Lease governs the terms for the distribution of CSB programming to customers of the DISH Network through video channel capacity leased from TESC. The Third Amendment, among other things, extends the stated term of the Lease for more than four years, to October 31, 2013 with regard to CSB's three channels.

The Third Amendment is expected to be filed, with confidential portions redacted, as an exhibit to our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending September 30, 2009. Investors are encouraged to read the Lease, including the Third Amendment, in its entirety when it becomes available because they contain important terms not discussed in this current report.
