This Amendment No. 6 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) supplements and amends, but is not a complete restatement of, the Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D (the “Amendment No. 3”) filed by JGD Management Corp., a Delaware corporation (“JGD” or the “Reporting Person”), d/b/a York Capital Management, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 2, 2007, as amended by the Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D (the “Amendment No. 4”) and the Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D (the “Amendment No. 5” and together with the Amendment No. 3 and Amendment No. 4, the “Prior Amendments”) filed by JGD with the SEC on April 10, 2008 and June 3, 2009, respectively, relating to the ordinary shares, par value NIS 0.20 per share (the “Shares”), of Gilat Satellite Networks Ltd. (the “Company”).  This Amendment should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the Prior Amendments.  Capitalized terms used in this Amendment but not otherwise defined have the meaning ascribed to them in the Prior Amendments.  The Prior Amendments are supplemented and amended as follows:

Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Amendment No. 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

The Reporting Person acquired the securities of the Company described in Item 5 of this Statement for investment purposes. The Reporting Person reserves the right to purchase additional Shares, either separately or together with other persons, to sell all or some of the Shares beneficially owned by them, including, without limitation, pursuant to any registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, required to be filed and kept effective by the Company under the Registration Rights Agreement, or to otherwise trade in the Shares, in open market or private transactions, provided that in its judgment such transactions present an attractive (long- or short-term) opportunity for profit.  A Managing Director of the Reporting Person currently serves as a director on the board of directors of the Company.

On June 5, 2009, York Capital, York Investment, York Credit Opportunities, York Credit Opportunities Master and the Managed Account (collectively, the “York Group”) entered into a Voting Agreement (the “Voting Agreement”) with KCPS Satellite Communications, Limited Partnership, an Israeli limited partnership (“KCPS”), in connection with a tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) commenced by KCPS on June 8, 2009 to purchase approximately 5% of the issued and outstanding Shares.  Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, the York Group and KCPS agreed to consult and coordinate with respect to the election of members of the board of directors of the Company and to consult prior to any regular or special meeting of the shareholders of the Company about their voting on all other matters.  The Voting Agreement becomes effective as of the successful closing of the Tender Offer and may be terminated by KCPS or the York Group at any time following the 2009 annual meeting of shareholders of the Company upon thirty (30) days’ written notice.  To the knowledge of the Reporting Person, KCPS does not currently hold any Shares.  The Reporting Person holds more than 35% of the pecuniary interest in KCS Private Equity I Fund, an affiliate of KCPS, but does not exercise any control over the management of KCS Private Equity I Fund or KCPS.
