XM SATELLITE RADIO HOLDINGS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

(Dollar amounts in thousands, unless otherwise stated)

(1) Business

We broadcast our music, sports, news, talk, entertainment, traffic and weather channels in the United States on a subscription fee basis through our proprietary satellite radio system. Our system consists of four in-orbit satellites, over 650 terrestrial repeaters that receive and retransmit signals, satellite uplink facilities and studios. Subscribers can also receive certain of our music and other channels over the Internet.

On July 28, 2008 XM Satellite Radio Holdings Inc. (“XM Holdings”) merged with and into Vernon Merger Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. (the “Merger”) and, as a result, XM Holdings is now a wholly owned subsidiary of SIRIUS. Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. was later renamed Sirius XM Radio Inc. (“SIRIUS”). The accounting for the Merger has been “pushed-down” in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements. XM, together with its subsidiaries, is operated as an unrestricted subsidiary under SIRIUS’ existing indebtedness. As an unrestricted subsidiary, transactions between the companies are required to comply with various contractual provisions in our debt instruments. For purposes of these Notes to unaudited consolidated financial statements, “we,” “us,” “our,” “the company,” and similar terms refer to XM Satellite Radio Holdings Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Our satellite radios are primarily distributed through automakers (“OEMs”), retailers and our website. We have agreements with major automakers to offer our satellite radios as factory or dealer-installed equipment in their vehicles. Our radios are also offered to customers of rental car companies.

Our subscriber totals include subscribers under our regular pricing plans; discounted pricing plans; subscribers that have prepaid, including payments either made or due from automakers and dealers for prepaid subscriptions included in the sale or lease price of a vehicle; certain radios activated for daily rental fleet programs; subscribers to XM Radio Online, our Internet service; and certain subscribers to our weather, traffic and data services.

Our primary source of revenue is subscription fees, with most of our customers subscribing on an annual, semi-annual, quarterly or monthly basis. We offer discounts for prepaid and long-term subscriptions as well as discounts for multiple subscriptions. We also derive revenue from activation fees, the sale of advertising on select non-music channels, the direct sale of satellite radios, components and accessories, and other ancillary services, such as our data and weather services. In August 2009, we began charging our subscribers a U.S. Music Royalty Fee (the “MRF”).

In certain cases, automakers include a subscription to our radio services in the sale or lease price of vehicles. The length of these prepaid subscriptions varies, but is typically three months. We also reimburse various automakers for certain costs associated with satellite radios installed in their vehicles.

We also have an interest in a satellite radio service offered in Canada through our affiliate, Canadian Satellite Radio Holdings Inc. (“XM Canada”). Subscribers to the XM Canada service are not included in our subscriber count.

XM Satellite Radio Inc. (“XM”) was incorporated on December 15, 1992 in the State of Delaware. XM Satellite Radio Holdings Inc. was formed as a holding company for XM on May 16, 1997.

As of September 30, 2009, the principal differences between the financial conditions of XM Holdings and XM were:

•

the ownership by XM Holdings of the corporate headquarters and data center buildings and the lease of these buildings to XM;

•

XM-1, XM-2, and the transponders of XM-3 and XM-4 are owned by XM; and XM-5 and the bus portions of XM-3 and XM-4 are owned by XM Holdings;

•

the presence at XM Holdings of additional indebtedness, primarily the 10% Convertible Senior Notes due 2009 and 10% Senior PIK Secured Notes due 2011, both of which are not guaranteed by XM;

•

the investment by XM Holdings in XM Canada (including related revenue and deferred income); and

•

the existence of additional cash balances at XM Holdings.

XM SATELLITE RADIO HOLDINGS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — Continued
(Dollar amounts in thousands, unless otherwise stated)

Accordingly, the results of operations for XM and its subsidiaries are substantially the same as the results of operations for XM Holdings and its subsidiaries except that XM has:

•

additional rent, less depreciation and amortization expense and less other income, in each case principally related to XM’s rental of its corporate headquarters and data center buildings from XM Holdings, which are intercompany transactions that have been eliminated in XM Holdings’ consolidated financial statements;

•

less interest expense, principally related to the additional indebtedness at XM Holdings, and gains and losses on embedded derivatives;

•

less revenue associated with the amortization of deferred income and equity in losses from XM Holdings’ investment in XM Canada;

•

no gains or losses on XM Holdings’ investment in XM Canada; and

•

less interest income because of additional cash balances at XM Holdings.

(2) Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of XM Satellite Radio Holdings Inc. and subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Basis of Presentation

In presenting unaudited consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and related disclosures. Additionally, estimates were used when recording the fair values of our assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Merger. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment and available information. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our unaudited consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2009, the successor periods of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and August 1, 2008 through September 30, 2008 and the predecessor periods of July 1, 2008 through July 31, 2008 and January 1, 2008 through July 31, 2008, have been made.

XM Holdings operates as an unrestricted subsidiary of SIRIUS under its existing indebtedness. As an unrestricted subsidiary, transactions between the companies are required to comply with various contractual restrictions in our existing debt instruments. SIRIUS allocates certain expenses to us based on the estimated costs incurred by SIRIUS that pertain to us. Additionally, certain costs incurred by us benefit SIRIUS and are allocated to SIRIUS based on estimated costs incurred by us pertaining to SIRIUS. We settle amounts due between the parties on a semi-monthly and monthly basis, except for share-based payment arrangements which are settled at times agreed to between us and SIRIUS. Our financial position, results of operations and cash flows could differ from those that might have resulted had we operated autonomously. As a result of the Merger, certain of our predecessor accounting policies were changed to conform with SIRIUS’ current accounting policies. These changes have not had, and are not expected to have, a significant impact on our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read together with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, filed with the SEC on March 13, 2009.

In connection with the Merger, our assets and liabilities were adjusted to fair value at the acquisition date by application of “push-down” accounting. Accordingly, our financial position and results of operations may not be comparable between the accompanying Successor and Predecessor periods.

We have evaluated events subsequent to the balance sheet date and prior to filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 through November 5, 2009 and determined there have not been any events that have occurred that would require adjustment to our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

(3) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and related disclosures.

Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition, asset impairment, useful lives of our satellites and valuation allowances against deferred tax assets. The financial market volatility and economic conditions in the United States have impacted our business and may continue to impact our business. Such conditions could have a material impact to our significant accounting estimates.

Inventory

Inventory consists of finished goods, refurbished goods, and other raw material components used in manufacturing radios. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. We record an estimated allowance for inventory that is considered slow moving and obsolete or whose carrying value is in excess of net realizable value. The provision related to products purchased for our direct to consumer distribution channel is reported as a component of Cost of equipment in our unaudited consolidated statements of operations. The remaining provision is reported as a component of Subscriber acquisition costs in our unaudited consolidated statements of operations.

Inventory, net, consists of the following:

		September 30,				December 31,
		2009				2008
Raw materials		$	6,303			$	5,781
Finished goods			4,987				6,898
Allowance for obsolescence			(8,367	)			(8,190	)
Total inventory, net		$	2,923			$	4,489

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in our prior period unaudited consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to our current period presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2009, Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) became the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) for nongovernmental entities, except for certain FASB Statements not yet incorporated into ASC. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for registrants. The discussion below includes the applicable ASC reference.

We adopted ASC 810-10-65, Transition and Open Effective Date Information, which requires a parent with one or more less-than-wholly-owned subsidiaries to disclose, on the face of the consolidated financial statements, the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and noncontrolling interest. We adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2009, with no impact on our consolidated results of operations and financial position.

We adopted ASC 855, Subsequent Events, which requires disclosure of events occurring after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. We adopted this guidance effective April 1, 2009, with no impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R), to require an analysis to determine whether our variable interest(s) give us a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity. Statement 167 has not been incorporated into ASC and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated results of operations and financial position.

In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, which integrated existing accounting standards with other authoritative guidance to provide a single source of authoritative U.S. GAAP for nongovernmental entities. Statement 168 has not been incorporated into ASC and is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. We adopted this guidance effective July 1, 2009, with no impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

Indefinite Life Intangible Assets

We have identified our FCC licenses and our trademark as indefinite life intangibles after considering the expected use of the assets, the regulatory and economic environment within which they are being used, and the effects of obsolescence on their use.

We hold FCC licenses to operate our satellite digital audio radio service and provide ancillary services. Our FCC licenses for our satellites expire in 2013 and 2014. Prior to the expirations, we will be required to apply for a renewal of our FCC licenses. The renewal and extension of our licenses is reasonably certain at minimal cost which is expensed as incurred. The FCC licenses authorize us to use the broadcast spectrum, which is a renewable, reusable resource that does not deplete or exhaust over time.

In connection with the Merger, $250,000 of the purchase price was allocated to our trademark. As of September 30, 2009 there are no legal, regulatory or contractual limitations associated with our trademark.

We evaluate our indefinite life intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, no impairment loss was recorded for intangible assets with indefinite lives.

Definite Life Intangible Assets

Definite life intangible assets consist primarily of subscriber relationships of $380,000 that were fair valued as a result of the Merger. Subscriber relationships are amortized on an accelerated basis over 9 years, which reflects the estimated pattern in which the economic benefits will be consumed. Other definite life intangibles include certain licensing agreements of $75,000, which are being amortized over a weighted average useful life of 9.1 years on a straight-line basis.

Satellites

We own four orbiting satellites; two of which, XM-3 and XM-4, currently transmit our signal and two of which, XM-1 and XM-2, serve as in-orbit spares. Our satellites were launched in March 2001, May 2001, February 2005 and October 2006.

Space Systems/Loral has constructed our fifth satellite, XM-5, for use in our system. In 2006, we entered into an agreement with Sea Launch to secure a launch for XM-5. In June 2009, Sea Launch filed for bankruptcy protection under Title 11 of the United States Code and as a result, we recorded a charge of $24,196 to Restructuring, impairments and related costs in our unaudited consolidated statements of operations for amounts previously paid, including capitalized interest. In October 2009, XM Holdings terminated its satellite launch agreement with Sea Launch with the consent of the Bankruptcy Court. In October 2009, SIRIUS entered into an agreement with International Launch Services (“ILS”) to secure a satellite launch for XM-5 on a Proton rocket. We currently expect to launch XM-5 in the second or third quarter of 2010.

XM Canada

In 2005, we entered into agreements to provide XM Canada with the right to offer XM satellite radio service in Canada. The agreements have an initial term of ten years and XM Canada has the unilateral option to extend the term of the agreements for an additional five years at no additional cost beyond the current financial arrangements. XM Canada has expressed its intent to exercise this option at the end of the initial term of the agreements. We have the right to receive a 15% royalty for all subscriber fees earned by XM Canada each month for its basic service and a nominal activation fee for each gross activation of an XM Canada subscriber on XM’s system. XM Canada is obligated to pay us a total of $71,800 for the rights to broadcast and market National Hockey League (“NHL”) games for the 10-year term of our contract with the NHL. We recognize these payments on a gross basis as a principal obligor pursuant to the provisions of ASC 605, Revenue Recognition.

The estimated fair value of deferred revenue from XM Canada as of the Merger date was approximately $34,000, and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining expected term of the agreements. Subsequent to the Merger date, we began to record additional deferred revenue on our agreements with XM Canada involving royalties on subscriber and activation fees. As of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the carrying value of Deferred revenue related to XM Canada was $39,566 and $36,002, respectively.

We have extended a Cdn$45,000 standby credit facility to XM Canada which can be utilized to purchase terrestrial repeaters or finance the payment of subscription fees. The facility matures on December 31, 2012 and bears interest at a rate of 17.75% per annum. We have the right to convert unpaid principal amounts into Class A subordinate voting shares of XM Canada at the price of Cdn$16.00 per share. As of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, amounts drawn by XM Canada on this facility in lieu of payment of subscription fees recorded in Related party long-term assets were $15,522 and $8,311, respectively.

SIRIUS

SIRIUS allocates certain expenses to us based on the estimated costs incurred by SIRIUS that pertain to us. Additionally, certain costs incurred by us benefit SIRIUS and are allocated to SIRIUS based on estimated costs incurred by us pertaining to SIRIUS. We settle amounts due between the parties on a semi-monthly and monthly basis, except for share-based payment arrangements which are settled at times agreed to between us and SIRIUS. Our financial position, results of operations and cash flows could differ from those that might have resulted had we operated autonomously.

We recorded total advertising revenue allocated from SIRIUS of $2,473 and $7,321 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively, and $0 for the period August 1, 2008 through September 30, 2008.

XM Canada

We have a 23.33% economic interest in XM Canada. The amount of the Merger purchase price allocated to the fair value of our investment in XM Canada was $41,188. Our investment in XM Canada is recorded using the equity method (on a one-month lag) since we have significant influence, but less than a controlling voting interest in XM Canada. Under this method, our investment in XM Canada is adjusted quarterly to recognize our share of net earnings or losses as they occur, rather than at the time dividends or other distributions are received, limited to the extent of our investment in, advances to, and commitments to fund XM Canada. Our share of net earnings or losses of XM Canada is recorded to Loss on investments in our unaudited consolidated statements of operations. We recorded $2,870 and $1,926 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively, for our share of XM Canada’s net loss and $3,089, $1,835 and $10,385 for the periods August 1, 2008 through September 30, 2008, July 1, 2008 through July 31, 2008 and January 1, 2008 through July 31, 2008, respectively, for our share of XM Canada’s net loss. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, we reduced the carrying value of our investment in XM Canada due to decreases in fair value that were considered to be other than temporary and recorded impairment charges of $0 and $4,734, respectively. In addition, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, we recorded ($35) and $466, respectively, as a foreign exchange gain (loss) to Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax.

We hold an investment in Cdn$4,000 face value of 8% convertible unsecured subordinated debentures issued by XM Canada for which the embedded conversion feature is bifurcated from the host contract. The host contract is accounted for as an available-for-sale security at fair value with changes in fair value recorded to Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax. The embedded conversion feature is accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings as Interest and investment income. As of September 30, 2009, the carrying value of our equity method investment in XM Canada was $2,679, while the carrying values of the host contract and embedded derivative related to our investment in the debentures was $2,967 and $26, respectively. As of December 31, 2008, the carrying value of our equity method investment in XM Canada was $8,873, while the carrying values of the host contract and embedded derivative related to our investment in the debentures was $2,540 and $2, respectively.

Auction Rate Certificates

Auction rate certificates are long-term securities structured to reset their coupon rates by means of an auction. We account for our investment in auction rate certificates as available-for-sale securities. As of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the carrying value of these securities was $8,588 and $7,985, respectively.

Restricted Investments

Restricted investments relate to deposits placed into escrow for the benefit of third parties pursuant to programming agreements. As of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the carrying value of our long-term restricted investments was $250 and $120,250, respectively.

The following table presents the changes in the Level 3 fair-value category for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. We classify financial instruments in Level 3 of the fair-value hierarchy when there is reliance on at least one significant unobservable input to the valuation model. In addition to these unobservable inputs, the valuation models for Level 3 financial instruments typically also rely on a number of inputs that are readily observable either directly or indirectly. Thus, the gains and losses presented below include changes in the fair value related to both observable and unobservable inputs. Fair values are determined using lattice models or market quotes. We recognized net unrealized (losses) gains in earnings of ($33,666) and ($111,609) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively, and $241,847, $14 and ($551) for the periods August 1, 2008 through September 30, 2008, July 1, 2008 through July 31, 2008 and January 1, 2008 through July 31, 2008, respectively.

10% Convertible Senior Notes due 2009

We have issued $400,000 aggregate principal amount of 10% Convertible Senior Notes due 2009 (the “10% Convertible Notes”). Interest is payable semi-annually at a rate of 10% per annum. The 10% Convertible Notes mature on December 1, 2009. The 10% Convertible Notes may be converted by the holder, at its option, into shares of SIRIUS’ common stock at a conversion rate of 92.0 shares of SIRIUS common stock per $1,000 principal amount, which is equivalent to a conversion price of $10.87 per share of SIRIUS common stock (subject to adjustment in certain events). As a result of the fair valuation at the acquisition date, we recognized an initial discount of $23,700.

In February 2009, we exchanged $172,485 aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 10% Convertible Notes for a like principal amount of XM Holdings’ 10% Senior PIK Secured Notes due 2011. We accounted for the exchange as a modification of debt and recorded $2,008 to General and administrative expense in our unaudited consolidated statements of operations and $10,990 of additional debt discount in our unaudited consolidated balance sheets.

In July 2009, we used a portion of the net proceeds received from the issuance of our 11.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2013 plus cash on hand to purchase at par $179,065 aggregate principal amount of the 10% Convertible Notes. We recorded a loss of $3,285 related to the unamortized discount to Loss on extinguishment of debt and credit facilities in our unaudited consolidated statements of operations as a result of this transaction.

10% Senior Secured Discount Convertible Notes due 2009

XM Holdings (with XM as co-obligors) have outstanding $33,249 aggregate principal amount of 10% Senior Secured Discount Convertible Notes due 2009 (the “10% Discount Convertible Notes”). Interest is payable semi-annually at a rate of 10% per annum. The 10% Discount Convertible Notes mature on December 31, 2009. At any time, a holder of the notes may convert all or part of the accreted value of the notes at a conversion price of $0.69 per share of SIRIUS common stock. As a result of the fair valuation at the acquisition date, we recognized an initial discount of $7,324.

10% Senior PIK Secured Notes due 2011

In February 2009, we exchanged $172,485 aggregate principal amount of outstanding 10% Convertible Notes for a like principal amount of XM Holdings’ 10% Senior PIK Secured Notes due 2011 (the “PIK Notes”). Interest is payable on the PIK Notes semiannually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year at a rate of 10% per annum paid in cash from December 1, 2008 to December 1, 2009; at a rate of 10% per annum paid in cash and 2% per annum paid in kind from December 1, 2009 to December 1, 2010; and at a rate of 10% per annum paid in cash and 4% per annum paid in kind from December 1, 2010 to the maturity date.

The PIK Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by XM 1500 Eckington LLC and XM Investment LLC (together, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) and are secured by a first-priority lien on substantially all of the property of the Subsidiary Guarantors. XM Holdings may, at its option, redeem some or all of the PIK Notes at any time at 100% of the principal amount prepaid, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

We paid a fee equal to, at each exchanging noteholders’ election, either (i) 833 shares of SIRIUS’ common stock (the “Structuring Fee Shares”) for every $1 principal amount of 10% Convertible Notes exchanged or (ii) an amount in cash equal to $0.05 for every $1 principal amount of 10% Convertible Notes exchanged. The total number of Structuring Fee Shares delivered was 59,178,819, and the aggregate cash delivered was approximately $5,100.

In October 2009, we purchased $58,800 aggregate principal amount of the PIK Notes at a price of $60,499, which included accrued interest of $2,287. We will record a net loss of $3,869, related to the unamortized discount and the discount on the purchase, to Loss on extinguishment of debt and credit facilities in our unaudited consolidated statements of operations as a result of this transaction.

Amended and Restated Credit Agreement due 2011

In March 2009, we amended and restated the $100,000 Senior Secured Term Loan due 2009, dated as of June 26, 2008 and the $250,000 Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility due 2009, dated as of May 5, 2006. These facilities were combined as term loans into the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of March 6, 2009. Liberty Media LLC (“Liberty”) purchased $100,000 aggregate principal amount of such loans from the lenders.

In June 2009, we used net proceeds from the sale of our 11.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2013 to repay amounts due under and extinguish the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. We paid a repayment premium of $6,500. We recorded an aggregate loss on extinguishment of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement of $49,786 consisting primarily of the unamortized discount, deferred financing fees and unaccreted portion of the repayment premium to Loss on extinguishment of debt and credit facilities in our unaudited consolidated statements of operations.

11.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2013

In June 2009, XM issued $525,750 aggregate principal amount of 11.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2013 (the “11.25% Notes”). Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year at a rate of 11.25% per annum. The 11.25% Notes mature on June 15, 2013. The 11.25% Notes were issued for $489,952, resulting in an aggregate original issuance discount, including fees, of $35,798.

XM Holdings and the domestic subsidiaries of XM that guarantee certain of the indebtedness of XM and its restricted subsidiaries guarantee XM’s obligations under the 11.25% Notes. The 11.25% Notes and related guarantees are secured by first-priority liens on substantially all of the assets of XM Holdings, XM and the guarantors.

In June 2009, XM used a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the 11.25% Notes to repay in full $325,000 principal amount outstanding under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. In connection with the sale of the 11.25% Notes, XM terminated the Second-Lien Credit Agreement and repaid all amounts due thereunder.

13% Senior Notes due 2013

In July 2008, XM issued $778,500 aggregate principal amount of 13% Senior Notes due 2013 (the “13% Notes”). Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year at a rate of 13% per annum. The 13% Notes were issued for $700,105, resulting in an original issuance discount of $78,395. The 13% Notes are unsecured and mature on August 1, 2013.

9.75% Senior Notes due 2014

XM has outstanding $5,260 aggregate principal amount of 9.75% Senior Notes due 2014 (the “9.75% Notes”). Interest on the 9.75% Notes is payable semi-annually on May 1 and November 1 at a rate of 9.75% per annum. The 9.75% Notes are unsecured and mature on May 1, 2014. XM, at its option, may redeem the 9.75% Notes at declining redemption prices at any time on or after May 1, 2010, subject to certain restrictions. Prior to May 1, 2010, XM may redeem the 9.75% Notes, in whole or in part, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus a make-whole premium and accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption.

In March 2009, XM executed and delivered a Third Supplemental Indenture (the “9.75% Notes Supplemental Indenture”). The 9.75% Notes Supplemental Indenture amended the indenture to eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants, eliminated certain events of default and modified or eliminated certain other provisions contained in the indenture and the 9.75% Notes.

7% Exchangeable Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014

In August 2008, XM issued $550,000 aggregate principal amount of 7% Exchangeable Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 (the “Exchangeable Notes”). The Exchangeable Notes are senior subordinated obligations of XM and rank junior in right of payment to its existing and future senior debt and equally in right of payment with its existing and future senior subordinated debt. XM Holdings, XM Equipment Leasing LLC and XM Radio Inc. have guaranteed the Exchangeable Notes on a senior subordinated basis. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year at a rate of 7% per annum. The Exchangeable Notes mature on December 1, 2014. The Exchangeable Notes are exchangeable at any time at the option of the holder into shares of SIRIUS’ common stock at an initial exchange rate of 533.3333 shares of SIRIUS common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Exchangeable Notes, which is equivalent to an approximate exchange price of $1.875 per share of SIRIUS common stock.

Second-Lien Credit Agreement

In February 2009, we entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Liberty Media Corporation, as administrative agent and collateral agent. The Credit Agreement provided for a $150,000 term loan. On March 6, 2009, we amended and restated the Credit Agreement (the “Second-Lien Credit Agreement”) with Liberty Media.

In June 2009, we terminated the Second-Lien Credit Agreement in connection with the sale of the 11.25% Notes and repaid all amounts due thereunder. We recorded a loss on termination of the Second-Lien Credit Agreement of $57,663 related to deferred financing fees to Loss on extinguishment of debt and credit facilities in our unaudited consolidated statements of operations.

Embedded Derivatives

We issued convertible debt securities, including the 10% Convertible Senior Notes due 2009, the 10% Senior Secured Discount Convertible Notes due 2009 and 7% Exchangeable Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 containing non-detachable conversion or exchange features. Upon completion of the Merger, these debt agreements were amended such that the settlement of conversion features is into shares of SIRIUS common stock.

The convertible and exchangeable features are embedded derivatives, and subsequent to the Merger are required to be separated from the host contract for accounting purposes in accordance with SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Hedging and Derivative Instruments . The embedded derivatives are recorded as derivative liabilities and included in our debt balances in our statement of financial position and the changes in fair value of those derivatives are reported as a realized investment gain or loss in the period in which the fair value changes.

Due to the change in fair value of these embedded derivatives, we recognized $33,700 and $111,703 of Loss on change in value of embedded derivatives during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively, and $242,223 of Gain on change in value of embedded derivatives for the period August 1, 2008 through September 30, 2008. The balance of derivative liabilities was $134,361 and $22,658 as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

Covenants and Restrictions

Our non-convertible debt generally requires compliance with certain covenants that restrict our ability to, among other things, (i) incur additional indebtedness, (ii) incur liens, (iii) pay dividends or make certain other restricted payments, investments or acquisitions, (iv) enter into certain transactions with affiliates, (v) merge or consolidate with another person, (vi) sell, assign, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets, and (vii) make voluntary prepayments of certain debt, in each case subject to exceptions. XM Holdings operates as an unrestricted subsidiary of SIRIUS for purposes of compliance with the covenants contained in our debt instruments. If we fail to comply with these covenants, our debt could become immediately payable.

At September 30, 2009, we were in compliance with all financial covenants.

(12) Benefit Plans

During the second quarter of 2009, we merged the XM Satellite Radio 401(k) Savings Plan (the “Savings Plan”) into the Sirius Satellite Radio 401(k) Savings Plan (the “Sirius Plan”), which is sponsored by SIRIUS. Eligible employees under the Savings Plan became subject to the contribution, matching and vesting rules of the Sirius Plan.

The Sirius Plan allows eligible employees to voluntarily contribute from 1% to 50% of their pre-tax salary subject to certain defined limits. SIRIUS matches 50% of an employee’s voluntary contributions, up to 6% of an employee’s pre-tax salary, in the form of shares of SIRIUS common stock. Matching contributions under the Sirius Plan vest at a rate of 33¹/3% for each year of employment and are fully vested after three years of employment.

(13) Income Taxes

We recorded income tax expense of $578 and $1,733 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively, and $672, $508 and $1,512 for the periods August 1, 2008 through September 30, 2008, July 1, 2008 through July 31, 2008 and January 1, 2008 through July 31, 2008, respectively. Such expense primarily represents the recognition of a deferred tax liability related to the difference in accounting for the FCC license intangible asset, which is amortized over 15 years for tax purposes but is not amortized for book purposes.

Long-term debt obligations. Long-term debt obligations include principal payments on outstanding debt.

Cash interest payments. Cash interest payments include interest due on outstanding debt through maturity.

Satellite and transmission. We have entered into agreements with third parties to operate and maintain the off-site satellite telemetry, tracking and control facilities and certain components of our terrestrial repeater network. We have also entered into various agreements to design and construct satellites for use in our systems and to launch those satellites.

Space Systems/Loral has constructed a fifth satellite, XM-5, for use in our system. In 2006, we entered into an agreement with Sea Launch to secure a launch for XM-5. In June 2009, Sea Launch filed for bankruptcy protection under Title 11 of the United States Code. In October 2009, XM Holdings terminated its satellite launch agreement with Sea Launch with the consent of the Bankruptcy Court. In October 2009, SIRIUS entered into an agreement with International Launch Services (“ILS”) to secure a satellite launch for XM-5 on a Proton rocket. We currently expect to launch XM-5 in the second or third quarter of 2010.

Programming and content. We have entered into various programming agreements. Under the terms of these agreements, we are obligated to provide payments to other entities that may include fixed payments, advertising commitments and revenue sharing arrangements.

Marketing and distribution. We have entered into various marketing, sponsorship and distribution agreements to promote our brand and are obligated to make payments to sponsors, retailers, automakers and radio manufacturers under these agreements. Certain programming and content agreements also require us to purchase advertising on properties owned or controlled by the licensors. We also reimburse automakers for certain engineering and development costs associated with the incorporation of satellite radios into vehicles they manufacture. In addition, in the event certain new products are not shipped by a distributor to its customers within 90 days of the distributor’s receipt of goods, we have agreed to purchase and take title to the product.

Satellite incentive payments. Boeing Satellite Systems International, Inc., the manufacturer of our four in-orbit satellites, may be entitled to future in-orbit performance payments with respect to two of our four satellites. As of September 30, 2009, we have accrued $28,655 related to contingent in-orbit performance payments for XM-3 and XM-4 based on expected operating performance over their fifteen year design life. Boeing may also be entitled to an additional $10,000 if XM-4 continues to operate above baseline specifications during the five years beyond the satellite’s fifteen year design life.

Operating lease obligations. We have entered into cancelable and non-cancelable operating leases for office space, equipment and terrestrial repeaters. These leases provide for minimum lease payments, additional operating expense charges, leasehold improvements, and rent escalations that have initial terms ranging from one to fifteen years, and certain leases that have options to renew. The effect of the rent holidays and rent concessions are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Other. We have entered into various agreements with third parties for general operating purposes. In addition to the minimum contractual cash commitments described above, we have entered into agreements with other variable cost arrangements. These future costs are dependent upon many factors, including subscriber growth, and are difficult to anticipate; however, these costs may be substantial. We may enter into additional programming, distribution, marketing and other agreements that contain similar provisions.

We are required under the terms of certain agreements to deposit monies in escrow, which place restrictions on cash and cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, $250 and $120,250, respectively, were classified as Restricted investments as a result of obligations under these escrow deposits.

We do not have any other significant off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Legal Proceedings

FCC Merger Order. On July 25, 2008, the FCC adopted an order approving the Merger. The order became effective immediately upon adoption. In September 2008, Mt. Wilson FM Broadcasters, Inc. filed a Petition for Reconsideration of this order. This Petition for Reconsideration remains pending.

The complaint seeks monetary damages and equitable relief, and alleges that XM radios that include advanced recording functionality infringe upon plaintiffs’ copyrighted sound recordings. XM filed a motion to dismiss this matter, and that motion was denied in January 2007. XM has resolved the lawsuit with respect to Universal Music Group, Warner Music Group, Sony BMG Music Entertainment and EMI Group, and each of these parties has withdrawn as a party to the lawsuit, and this lawsuit has been dismissed with respect to such parties.

Music publishing companies and certain other record companies also have filed lawsuits, purportedly on a class basis, with similar allegations. We believe these allegations are without merit and that our products comply with applicable copyright law, including the Audio Home Recording Act. We intend to vigorously defend this matter. There can be no assurance regarding the ultimate outcome of these matters, or the significance, if any, to our business, consolidated results of operations or financial position.

Other Matters. In the ordinary course of business, we are a defendant in various lawsuits and arbitration proceedings, including actions filed by former employees, parties to contracts or leases and owners of patents, trademarks, copyrights or other intellectual property. None of these actions are, in our opinion, likely to have a material adverse effect on our cash flows, financial position or results of operations.
