This Amendment No. 7 amends the Schedule 13D dated May 27,
1997, as amended in certain respects by Amendments Nos. 1 through 6 thereto, and
is filed by General Motors Corporation ("GM"), Hughes Electronics Corporation
("Hughes"), Hughes Communications, Inc. ("HCI"), Hughes Communications Galaxy,
Inc. ("HCG") and Hughes Communications Satellite Services, Inc. ("HCSS", and,
collectively with GM, Hughes, HCI and HCG, the "Reporting Persons") with respect
to the shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share ("Common Stock"), of
PanAmSat Corporation (the "Company").
The responses to Item 2 (Identity and Background), Item 4
(Purpose of Transaction), Item 5 (Interest in Securities of the Issuer), and
Item 7 (Material to be filed as Exhibits) are hereby amended as follows:
Item 2: Identity and Background.
This statement is being filed jointly by GM, Hughes, HCI,
HCG and HCSS. Hughes is a Delaware corporation. The address of each of Hughes',
HCI's, HCG's and HCSS' principal office is 2250 E. Imperial Highway, El Segundo,
California 90245. The names, business addresses, principal businesses and
citizenship of the directors and executive officers of each of Hughes, HCI, HCG
and HCSS are set forth on Schedule I hereto and incorporated by reference
herein. The principal businesses of Hughes are providing digital television
entertainment, broadband satellite networks and services and video and data
broadcasting.
As previously disclosed in Schedule 13D, HCG and HCSS are
wholly-owned subsidiaries of HCI. HCI is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hughes
Telecommunications & Space Company ("HTS"); and HTS is a wholly-owned subsidiary
of Hughes.
During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons
nor, to the best of their knowledge, any of the executive officers or directors
of any of the Reporting Persons, has been (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding
(excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (ii) a party to a
civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction
and, as a result of such proceeding, was or is subject to a judgment, decree or
final order enjoining such future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating
activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation
with respect to such laws.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
As previously reported in Schedule 13D, Hughes, The News
Corporation Limited and GM entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of
April 9, 2003, as amended (the "Stock Purchase Agreement"). In connection with
the Stock Purchase Agreement, Hughes and GM entered into a Separation Agreement,
dated as of April 9, 2003 (the "Separation Agreement"), which provided for the
split-off of Hughes from GM. The transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase
Agreement and the Separation Agreement were consummated on December 22, 2003,
and Hughes has been split off from GM. Consequently, Hughes is no longer a
wholly-owned subsidiary of GM and, as a result, GM is no longer the beneficial
owner of any shares of Common Stock of the Company.
None of the Reporting Persons has any present plan or
proposal which relates to, or could result in, any of the events referred to in
paragraphs (a) through (j), inclusive, of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. However, as
7
part of its strategic planning, management of Hughes from time to time examines
its investment in the Company. Depending on general market and economic
conditions affecting the Company, Hughes' views of the prospects for the
Company, the price at which shares of the Company could be acquired or sold and
other relevant factors, HCI, HCG, HCSS or their respective affiliates from time
to time may seek to acquire additional shares of Common Stock, or dispose of
shares of Common Stock, in open market transactions, private transactions or
otherwise.
Item 5: Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
(a) The responses of the Reporting Persons to Rows (11)
through (13) of the cover pages of this Amendment No. 7 are incorporated herein
by reference. As of December 31, 2003, the Reporting Persons beneficially owned
the number of shares of Common Stock listed below, representing approximately
the percentage of the outstanding shares of Common Stock set forth opposite such
number (based on 150,103,784 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of November
3, 2003).
-------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------
Person Number of Shares Percent of Class
-------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------
Hughes Electronics Corporation 120,812,175 80.5%
-------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------
Hughes Communications, Inc. 14,477,240 9.6%
-------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------
Hughes Communications Galaxy, Inc. 88,605,390 59.0%
-------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------
Hughes Communications Satellite Services, 17,729,545 11.8%
Inc.
-------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------
(b) The responses of the Reporting Persons to (i) Rows (7)
through (10) of the cover pages of this Amendment No. 7 and (ii) Item 5(a)
hereof are incorporated herein by reference. Hughes acting through HTS,
indirectly has power to vote or direct the vote, and to dispose or to direct the
disposition of the shares of Common Stock. As a result, Hughes may be deemed to
beneficially own the shares of Common Stock directly owned by HCI, HCG and HCSS.
(c) Not Applicable.
(d) Except as stated in this Item 5, to the best of the
knowledge of the Reporting Persons, no other person has the right to receive
dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock
owned by the Reporting Persons.
(e) Not Applicable.
