SIRIUS XM RADIO INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollar amounts in thousands, unless otherwise stated)

(1) Business

We broadcast in the United States our music, sports, news, talk, entertainment, traffic and weather channels for a subscription fee through our proprietary satellite radio systems — the SIRIUS system and the XM system. On July 28, 2008, our wholly owned subsidiary, Vernon Merger Corporation, merged (the “Merger”) with and into XM Satellite Radio Holdings Inc. and, as a result, XM Satellite Radio Holdings Inc. is now our wholly owned subsidiary. The SIRIUS system consists of three in-orbit satellites, approximately 120 terrestrial repeaters that receive and retransmit signals, satellite uplink facilities and studios. The XM system consists of four in-orbit satellites, over 700 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.

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

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 for prepaid subscriptions included in the sale or lease price of a new vehicle; certain radios activated for daily rental fleet programs; subscribers to SIRIUS Internet Radio and XM Radio Online, our Internet services; and certain subscribers to our weather, traffic, data and video 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 Backseat TV, data and weather services.

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 to twelve months. In many cases, we receive subscription payments from automakers in advance of the activation of our service. We also reimburse various automakers for certain costs associated with satellite radios installed in their vehicles.

We also have an interest in the satellite radio services offered in Canada. Subscribers to the SIRIUS Canada service and the XM Canada service are not included in our subscriber count.

We have incurred losses from operations and have generated negative cash flows from operations in each of the past three years. At March 31, 2009, we had an accumulated deficit of $9,948,859. Our ability to meet our debt and other obligations as they come due depends on the successful execution of our operating plan and on economic, financial and competitive factors influencing our business.

We entered into several agreements which improved our financial position. We entered into an agreement with General Motors to extend the term of XM’s distribution agreement to 2020, to improve the economic terms of the arrangement, and postpone, at XM’s option, certain payments, with interest, to General Motors. We also entered into agreements with certain other third parties to, among other things, restructure lump sum payments coming due; eliminate escrow arrangements in exchange for prepayment of the amount released; and extend agreements. We may enter into similar agreements with additional third parties.

Our plan to maintain sufficient liquidity includes the potential for deferring the planned launch of satellites and deferring planned capital projects or other discretionary spending. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents on hand, marketable securities, available borrowings from Liberty Media, and expected cash flows from operations will be sufficient to satisfy our financial obligations through 2010, including our obligations on account of interest and principal payments of $1,067,540. Our financial projections are based on assumptions, which we believe are reasonable, but contain uncertainties.

We expect the Compensation Committee of our board of directors to consider equity-based, performance awards to certain employees during the second quarter of 2009. These performance awards would be intended to: compensate such employees for their efforts during the year ended December 31, 2008; and retain such employees in the short-term until stockholders approve the proposed Sirius XM Radio Inc. 2009 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan. Any such performance awards are expected to take the form of restricted stock units which will vest over time.

Unless otherwise indicated,

•

“we,” “us,” “our,” the “company,” “the companies” and similar terms refer to Sirius XM Radio Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries;

(2) Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Sirius XM Radio 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 March 31, 2009, and for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, have been made.

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 10, 2009.

(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 consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition, asset impairment, useful lives of our satellites, share-based payment expense, and valuation allowances against deferred tax assets. Financial market volatility and poor economic conditions in the United States have impacted and will 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, chip sets and other raw material components used in manufacturing radios. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost, determined on a first-in, first-out basis, 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.

SIRIUS XM RADIO INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

(Dollar amounts in thousands, unless otherwise stated)

Inventory, net, consists of the following:


	March 31, 2009			December 31, 2008
Raw materials	$	11,689		$	11,648
Finished goods		34,242			38,323
Allowance for obsolescence		(26,042	)		(25,509	)

Total inventory, net	$	19,889		$	24,462

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in an orderly transaction between market participants to sell the asset or transfer the liability. As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, we have determined that the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and other receivables, and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

The fair value of our long-term debt is determined by either (i) estimation of the discounted future cash flows of each instrument at rates currently offered to us for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities by our bankers, or (ii) quoted market prices at the reporting date for the traded debt securities. As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the carrying value of our long-term debt was $3,092,296 and $3,251,466, respectively; while the fair value approximated $1,966,694 and $1,211,613, respectively.

Reclassifications

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

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) 157-1, Application of FASB Statement No. 157 to FASB Statement No. 13 and Other Accounting Pronouncements That Address Fair Value Measurements for Purposes of Lease Classification or Measurement under Statement 13 and FSP 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157. FSP 157-1 amends SFAS No. 157 to remove certain leasing transactions from its scope. FSP 157-2, delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for all nonfinancial assets and liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on at least an annual basis, until January 1, 2009 for calendar year end entities. In October 2008, the FASB issued FSP 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active, which provides a detailed example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset in an inactive market, and emphasizes the requirements to disclose significant unobservable inputs used as a basis for estimating fair value. We adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 157 on January 1, 2008, except as it applies to nonfinancial assets and liabilities as noted in FSP 157-2. Neither the partial adoption nor the issuance of FSP 157-3 had any significant impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position. We adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 157, as amended, on January 1, 2009 as it relates to nonfinancial assets and liabilities, and there has been no impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

In November 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations, which continues to require that all business combinations be accounted for by applying the acquisition method. Under the acquisition method, the acquirer recognizes and measures the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any contingent consideration and contractual contingencies, as a whole, at their fair value as of the acquisition date. Under SFAS No. 141R, all transaction costs are expensed as incurred. SFAS No. 141R rescinded EITF No. 93-07, Uncertainties Related to Income Taxes in a Purchase Business Combination. Under SFAS No. 141R, all subsequent adjustments to uncertain tax positions assumed in a business combination that previously would have impacted goodwill are recognized in the income statement. The guidance in SFAS No. 141R is applied prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2008. We adopted SFAS No. 141R effective January 1, 2009, with no impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 141R-1, Accounting for Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed in a Business Combination That Arise from Contingencies, which clarifies the application of SFAS No. 141R to assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in a business combination. FSP No. FAS 141R-1 requires the acquirer to recognize at fair value an asset acquired or liability assumed in a business combination that arises from a contingency if the acquisition-date fair value of that asset or liability can be determined during the measurement period. If the acquisition-date fair value cannot be determined, the acquirer would apply the recognition criteria in SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, and FASB Interpretation No.14, Reasonable Estimation of the Amount of a Loss, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 5, to determine whether the contingency should be recognized as of the acquisition date or after it. The guidance in FSP No. FAS 141R-1 will be applied prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2008. FSP No. FAS 141R-1 does not impact the accounting for the Merger.

In December 2007, the FASB ratified EITF No. 07-1, Accounting for Collaborative Agreements, which provides guidance on how the parties to a collaborative agreement should account for costs incurred and revenue generated on sales to third parties, how sharing payments pursuant to a collaboration agreement should be presented in the income statement and certain related disclosure requirements. This EITF is effective for the first annual or interim reporting period beginning after December 15, 2008, and should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented for all collaborative arrangements existing as of the effective date. We adopted EITF No. 07-1 effective January 1, 2009, with no impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets. FSP No. FAS 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. This FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We adopted FSP No. FAS 142-3 effective January 1, 2009, with no impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

In May 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. APB 14-1, Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement), which amends the accounting requirements for certain convertible debt instruments. Additional disclosures are also required for these instruments. This FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We adopted FSP No. APB 14-1 effective January 1, 2009, with no impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

In June 2008, the FASB ratified EITF No. 07-5, Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock, which provides guidance for determining whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) issued by an entity is indexed to the entity’s stock, and therefore would qualify for the first part of the scope exception in paragraph 11(a) of SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The EITF prescribes a two-step approach under which the entity would evaluate the instrument’s contingent exercise provisions and then the instrument’s settlement provisions, for purposes of evaluating whether the instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to the entity’s stock. This EITF is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We adopted EITF No. 07-5 effective January 1, 2009, with no impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

In November 2008, the FASB ratified EITF No. 08-6, Equity Method Investment Accounting Considerations, which applies to all investments accounted for under the equity method. The EITF clarifies the accounting for certain transactions and impairment considerations involving these investments. This EITF is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We adopted EITF No. 08-6 effective January 1, 2009, with no impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, which amends SFAS 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. FSP No. FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 also amends APB 28, Interim Financial Reporting, to require these disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods. This FSP is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 will have on our interim report disclosures.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments, which amends the other-than-temporary impairment guidance in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for debt securities to make the guidance more operational and to improve the presentation and disclosure of other-than-temporary impairments on debt and equity securities in the financial statements. This FSP is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of FSP No. FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 will have on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly, which provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with SFAS No. 157 when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. If a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability has occurred, quoted prices may not be determinative of fair value. Consequently, further analysis of the transactions or quoted prices is needed, and a significant adjustment to the transactions or quoted prices may be necessary to estimate fair value in accordance with SFAS No. 157. This FSP is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of FSP No. FAS 157-4 will have on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

(4) Goodwill

Pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, we allocated the consideration paid in connection with the Merger to the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities, respectively, and recorded goodwill in the amount of $6,601,046. During 2008, we recorded an impairment charge of $4,766,190 resulting in a carrying value of $1,834,856 at December 31, 2008. There has not been any change in the carrying value of goodwill during 2009.

(5) Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consisted of the following:

Indefinite Life Intangible Assets

We have identified our FCC licenses and the XM 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. SIRIUS’ FCC license for most of its satellites expires in 2010 and the license for one of its new satellites expires eight years after SIRIUS certifies the satellite is operating; XM Holdings’ FCC licenses for its 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. 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 the XM trademark. As of March 31, 2009, there are no legal, regulatory or contractual limitations associated with the XM trademark.

We evaluate our indefinite life intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis in accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. During the three months ended March 31, 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 acquired 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.

Amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $20,430. Expected amortization expense for each of the fiscal years through December 31, 2013 and for periods thereafter is as follows:

In November 2005, XM 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. XM has 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 XM a total of $71,800 for the rights to broadcast and market National Hockey League (“NHL”) games for the 10-year term of XM’s contract with the NHL. In accordance with EITF No. 99-19, Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent, we recognize these payments on a gross basis as a principal obligor.

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.

SIRIUS Debt

LM Credit Agreement

On February 17, 2009, SIRIUS entered into a Credit Agreement (the “LM Credit Agreement”) with Liberty Media Corporation, as administrative agent and collateral agent. The LM Credit Agreement provides for a $250,000 term loan and $30,000 of purchase money loans. Concurrently with entering into the LM Credit Agreement, SIRIUS borrowed $250,000 under the term loan facility. The proceeds of the term loan were used (i) to repay at maturity our outstanding 2 ¹/2% Convertible Notes due February 17, 2009 and (ii) for general corporate purposes, including related transaction costs.

The loans under the LM Credit Agreement have a stated interest rate of 15% per annum. Commencing on March 31, 2010, the loans amortize in quarterly installments equal to (i) 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the loans outstanding on January 1, 2010 and (ii) after December 31, 2011, 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the loans outstanding on January 1, 2012. The loan matures on December 20, 2012. In addition, we pay a commitment fee of 2.0% per annum on the unused portion of the purchase money loan facility.

The loans under the LM Credit Agreement are guaranteed by Satellite CD Radio, Inc. and Sirius Asset Management Company LLC, SIRIUS’ wholly owned subsidiaries. The loans are secured by a lien on substantially all of SIRIUS’ assets. The affirmative covenants, negative covenants and event of default provisions in the LM Credit Agreement are substantially similar to those in the Senior Secured Term Loan, dated as of June 20, 2007, among SIRIUS, the lenders party thereto and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent and collateral agent.

Senior Secured Term Loan due 2012

In June 2007, SIRIUS entered into a term credit agreement with a syndicate of financial institutions. The term credit agreement provides for a senior secured term loan (the “Senior Secured Term Loan”) of $250,000, which has been fully drawn. Interest under the Senior Secured Term Loan is based, at our option, on (i) adjusted LIBOR plus 2.25% or (ii) the higher of (a) the prime rate and (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus ¹/2 of 1.00%, plus 1.25%. The current interest rate is 2.8125%. The Senior Secured Term Loan amortizes in equal quarterly installments of 0.25% of the initial aggregate principal amount for the first four and a half years, with the balance of the loan thereafter being repaid in four equal quarterly installments. The Senior Secured Term Loan matures on December 20, 2012.

The Senior Secured Term Loan is guaranteed by our wholly owned subsidiaries, including Satellite CD Radio, Inc. (the “Guarantor”), and is secured by a lien on substantially all of SIRIUS’ and the Guarantor’s assets, including SIRIUS’ three in-orbit satellites, one ground spare satellite and the shares of the Guarantor.

The Senior Secured Term Loan contains customary affirmative covenants and event of default provisions. The negative covenants contained in the Senior Secured Term Loan are substantially similar to those contained in the indenture governing SIRIUS’ 9 ⁵/8% Senior Notes due 2013.

9 ⁵ /8% Senior Notes due 2013

In August 2005, SIRIUS issued $500,000 in aggregate principal amount of 9 ⁵/8% Senior Notes due 2013 (the “9 ⁵/8% Notes”) resulting in net proceeds, after debt issuance costs, of $493,005. The 9 ⁵/8% Notes mature on August 1, 2013 and interest is payable semi-annually on February 1 and August 1 of each year. The obligations under the 9 ⁵/8% Notes are not secured by any of our assets.

3 ¹/4% Convertible Notes due 2011

In October 2004, SIRIUS issued $230,000 in aggregate principal amount of 3 ¹/4% Convertible Notes due 2011 (the “3 ¹/4% Notes”) resulting in net proceeds, after debt issuance costs, of $224,813. The 3 ¹/4% Notes are convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares of our common stock at any time at a conversion rate of 188.6792 shares of common stock for each $1,000 principal amount, or $5.30 per share of common stock, subject to certain adjustments. The 3 ¹/4% Notes mature on October 15, 2011 and interest is payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15 of each year. The obligations under the 3 ¹/4% Notes are not secured by any of our assets.

2 ¹/2% Convertible Notes due 2009

In February 2004, SIRIUS issued $250,000 in aggregate principal amount of 2 ¹/2% Convertible Notes due 2009 (the “2 ¹/2% Notes”) resulting in net proceeds, after debt issuance costs, of $244,625. In March 2004, SIRIUS issued an additional $50,000 in aggregate principal amount of the 2 ¹/2% Notes pursuant to an option granted in connection with the initial offering of the notes, resulting in net proceeds of $48,975. During 2008, $110,414 in aggregate principal amount of the 2 ¹/2% Notes were exchanged for

shares of our common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2009, but prior to the maturity date of the 2 ¹/2% Notes, $18,000 in aggregate principal amount of the 2 ¹/2% Notes were exchanged for shares of our common stock.

In 1999, SIRIUS issued 8 ³/4% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2009 (the “8 ³/4% Notes”). The 8 ³/4% Notes are convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares of our common stock at any time at a conversion rate of 35.134 shares of common stock for each $1,000 principal amount, or $28.4625 per share of common stock, subject to certain adjustments. The remaining balance of the 8 ³/4% Notes matures on September 29, 2009 and interest is payable semi-annually on March 29 and September 29 of each year. The obligations under the 8 ³/4% Notes are not secured by any of our assets.

Space Systems/Loral Credit Agreement

In July 2007, SIRIUS amended and restated its existing Credit Agreement with Space Systems/Loral (the “Loral Credit Agreement”). Under the Loral Credit Agreement, Space Systems/Loral agreed to make loans to SIRIUS to finance the purchase of its fifth and sixth satellites through June 10, 2010. Loral’s commitment is limited to approximately $25,688, or 80% of the amount due with respect to the construction of SIRIUS’ sixth satellite. Loans made under the Loral Credit Agreement are secured by SIRIUS’ rights under the Satellite Purchase Agreement with Space Systems/Loral, including its rights to these satellites. The loans are also entitled to the benefits of a subsidiary guarantee from Satellite CD Radio, Inc., the subsidiary that holds SIRIUS’ FCC license, and any future material subsidiary that may be formed by SIRIUS. The maturity date of the loans is the earliest to occur of (i) June 10, 2010, (ii) 90 days after the sixth satellite becomes available for shipment and (iii) 30 days prior to the scheduled launch of the sixth satellite. The Loral Credit Agreement contains certain conditions to borrowings. As a result of these borrowing conditions, we could be limited in our ability to borrow under this facility. Any loans made under the Loral Credit Agreement generally will bear interest at a variable rate equal to 3-month LIBOR plus 4.75%. The daily unused balance bears interest at a rate per annum equal to 0.50%, payable quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and December. The Loral Credit Agreement permits SIRIUS to prepay all or a portion of the loans outstanding without penalty. SIRIUS has not borrowed under the Loral Credit Agreement.

XM and XM Holdings Debt

On March 6, 2009, XM amended and restated (i) the $100,000 Senior Secured Term Loan due 2009, dated as of June 26, 2008, among XM, XM Holdings, the lenders named therein and UBS AG, as administrative agent (the “UBS Term Loan”), and (ii) the $250,000 Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility due 2009, dated as of May 5, 2006, among XM, XM Holdings, the lenders named therein and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “JPM Revolver” and, together with the UBS Term Loan, the “Previous Facilities”).

The Tranche A and the Tranche B term loans are subject to scheduled quarterly amortization payments of $25,000 starting on March 31, 2009 with all remaining amounts ($150,000) due on the maturity date. The Tranche C term loans are subject to a partial amortization of $25,000 on March 31, 2010, with all remaining amounts ($75,000) due on the final maturity date.

We accounted for the exchange as a modification of debt under EITF Issue No. 96-19, Debtor’s Accounting for a Modification or Exchange of Debt Instruments.

Pursuant to the Second-Lien Credit Agreement, XM may borrow $150,000 aggregate principal amount of term loans on December 1, 2009.

If we fail to comply with these covenants, the 9⁵/8% Notes, LM Credit Agreement, 13% Notes and any loans outstanding under the Loral Credit Agreement, the Senior Secured Term Loan, LM Credit Agreement, First-Lien Credit Agreement and Second-Lien Credit Agreement could become immediately payable and the Loral Credit Agreement could be terminated.

At March 31, 2009, we were in compliance with all financial covenants.

(12) Stockholders’ Equity

Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share

We are authorized to issue up to 8,000,000,000 shares of common stock as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008. There were 3,856,659,213 and 3,651,765,837 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

As of March 31, 2009, approximately 3,398,956,000 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance in connection with outstanding convertible debt, preferred stock, warrants, incentive stock plans and common stock to be granted to third parties upon satisfaction of performance targets. During the three months ended March 31, 2009, employees did not exercise any stock options.

In January 2004, SIRIUS signed a seven-year agreement with a sports programming provider. Upon execution of this agreement, SIRIUS delivered 15,173,070 shares of common stock valued at $40,967 to that programming provider. These shares of

common stock are subject to transfer restrictions which lapse over time. We recognized expense associated with these shares of $1,641 during each of the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008. Of the remaining $11,631 in common stock value, $5,852 and $5,779 are included in Other current assets and Other long-term assets, respectively, in our consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2009. Of the remaining $13,272 in common stock value, $5,852 and $7,420 are included in Other current assets and Other long-term assets, respectively, in our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2008.

Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share

We are authorized to issue up to 50,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock as of March 31, 2009. There were 24,808,959 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008. There were 12,500,000 shares of Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2009.

The Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of our common stock at the rate of 206.9581409 shares of common stock for each share of Series B Preferred Stock, representing 40% of our outstanding shares of common stock (after giving effect to such conversion). This conversion rate will be subject to adjustment from time to time in certain circumstances such that Liberty Radio LLC will maintain a 40% ownership of all outstanding common shares, inclusive of the Series B Preferred Stock on an as converted basis. As holders of the Series B Preferred Stock, Liberty Radio LLC is entitled to a number of votes equal to the number of shares of our common stock into which each such Series B Preferred Stock share is convertible. Liberty Radio LLC will also receive dividends and distributions ratably with our common stock, on an as-converted basis. With respect to dividend rights, the Series B Preferred Stock ranks evenly with our common stock, the Series A Preferred Stock, and each other class or series of our equity securities not expressly provided as ranking senior to the Series B Preferred Stock. With respect to liquidation rights, the Series B Preferred Stock ranks evenly with each other class or series of our equity securities not expressly provided as ranking senior to the Series B Preferred Stock, and will rank senior to our common stock and the Series A Preferred Stock.

We accounted for the Series B Preferred Stock issuance by recording a $227,716 increase to additional paid-in capital for the amount of allocated proceeds received and an additional $186,188 increase to paid-in capital for the beneficial conversion feature, which was recognized as a charge to retained earnings.

Warrants

We have issued warrants to purchase shares of common stock in connection with distribution and programming agreements, satellite purchase agreements and certain debt issuances. As of March 31, 2009, approximately 54,667,000 warrants to acquire approximately 87,090,000 shares of common stock with an average exercise price of $4.05 per share were outstanding. We recognized expense of $1,318 during the three months ended March 31, 2009 due to the cancellation of certain warrants and the issuance of replacement warrants expiring in March 2015. These warrants vest over time or upon the achievement of milestones and expire at various times through June 2014. For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, we recognized aggregate warrant related expense of $2,522 and $2,770, respectively.

(13) Benefits Plans

We maintain three share-based benefits plans. We satisfy awards and options granted under these plans through the issuance of new shares. During the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, we recognized share-based payment expense of $20,179 and $22,262, respectively. For a summarized schedule of share-based payment expense, see the appended footnote to our unaudited consolidated statements of operations. We did not realize any income tax benefits from share-based benefits plans during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, as a result of a full valuation allowance that is maintained for substantially all net deferred tax assets.

2003 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan

SIRIUS maintains the Amended and Restated Sirius Satellite Radio 2003 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (the “2003 Plan”). Employees, consultants and members of our board of directors are eligible to receive awards under the 2003 Plan. The 2003 Plan provides for the grant of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards that the compensation committee of our board of directors may deem appropriate. Vesting and other terms of stock-based awards are set forth in the agreements with the individuals receiving the awards. Stock-based awards granted under the 2003 Plan are generally subject to a vesting requirement. Stock-based awards generally expire ten years from the date of grant. Each restricted stock unit entitles the holder to receive one share of common stock upon vesting. As of March 31, 2009, approximately 54,930,000 shares of common stock were available for future grant under the 2003 Plan.

2007 Stock Incentive Plan

XM Holdings maintains a 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”) under which officers, other employees and other key individuals of XM Holdings may be granted various types of equity awards, including restricted stock, stock units, stock options, stock appreciation rights, dividend equivalent rights and other stock awards. Stock option awards under the 2007 Plan generally vest ratably over three years based on continuous service, while restricted stock generally vests ratably over one or three years based on continuous service. Stock option awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of our common stock at the date of grant and expire no later than ten years from the date of grant. Grants of equity awards, other than stock options or stock appreciation rights, reduce the number of shares available for future grant by 1.5 times the number of shares granted under such equity awards. As of March 31, 2009, there were approximately 63,154,000 shares available under the 2007 Plan for future grant.

XM Talent Option Plan

XM Holdings maintains a Talent Option Plan (the “Talent Plan”) under which non-employee programming consultants to XM Holdings may be granted stock option awards. Stock option awards under the Talent Plan generally vest ratably over three years based on continuous service. Stock option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of our common stock at the date of grant and expire no later than ten years from the date of grant. As of March 31, 2009, there were 1,564,000 options available under the Talent Plan for future grant.

The following table summarizes the weighted-average assumptions used to compute reported share-based payment expense to employees and members of our board of directors for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008.

401(k) Savings Plans

We sponsor the Sirius Satellite Radio 401(k) Savings Plan (the “Sirius Plan”) and the XM Satellite Radio 401(k) Savings Plan (the “XM Plan”) for eligible employees. The Sirius Plan allows eligible employees to voluntarily contribute from 1% to 50% of their pre-tax salary subject to certain defined limits, while the XM Plan allows eligible employees to defer the maximum amount of their compensation allowable under law on a pre-tax basis through contributions to the savings plan. Under the Sirius Plan, 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 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. Under the XM Plan, XM Holdings matches 50% of an employee’s voluntary contributions, up to 6% of an employee’s pre-tax salary, in cash. Matching contributions under the XM Plan vest immediately. Expense resulting from the matching contribution to the plans was $923 and $865 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

SIRIUS may also elect to contribute to the profit sharing portion of the Sirius Plan based upon the total compensation of eligible participants. These additional contributions, referred to as profit-sharing contributions, are determined by the compensation committee of our board of directors. SIRIUS employees are only eligible to receive profit-sharing contributions during any year in which they are employed on the last day of the year. We reduced our accrual for our profit-sharing contribution during the three months ended March 31, 2009 resulting in a negative $3,721 profit-sharing contribution expense for the three months ended March 31, 2009. Profit-sharing contribution expense was $1,657 for the three months ended March 31, 2008.

(14) Income Taxes

We recorded income tax expense of $1,115 and $543 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Such expense primarily represents the recognition of a deferred tax liability related to the difference in accounting for the FCC license intangible assets, which are amortized over 15 years for tax purposes but are not amortized for book purposes.

(15) Commitments and Contingencies

The following table summarizes our expected contractual cash commitments as of March 31, 2009:

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 networks. We have also entered into various agreements to design and construct satellites for use in our systems and to launch those satellites. SIRIUS has entered into an agreement with Space Systems/Loral to design and construct a fifth and sixth satellite. SIRIUS plans to launch one satellite on a Proton rocket under an existing contract with International Launch Services. In January 2008, SIRIUS entered into an agreement with International Launch Services to secure two additional satellite launches on Proton rockets. This agreement provides SIRIUS with the flexibility to defer the second launch date if it chooses, and the ability to cancel either of these launches upon payment of a cancellation fee.

XM Holdings has also entered into an agreement with Space Systems/Loral to construct its fifth satellite, XM-5. In August 2007, XM’s agreement with Space Systems/Loral was amended to defer payments on the remaining construction costs until the earlier of post-launch or January 2010.

(Dollar amounts in thousands, unless otherwise stated)

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 performance incentive payments. Boeing Satellite Systems International, Inc., the manufacturer of XM’s four in-orbit satellites, may be entitled to future in-orbit performance payments with respect to two of XM’s four satellites. As of March 31, 2009, we have accrued $28,475 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 automakers, radio manufacturers, distributors and others that include per-radio, per-subscriber, per-show and 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 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. This order was published in the Federal Register on September 8, 2008. On September 4, 2008, Mt. Wilson FM Broadcasters, Inc. filed a Petition for Reconsideration of the FCC’s merger order. This Petition for Reconsideration remains pending.

Copyright Royalty Board Proceeding. In January 2008, the Copyright Royalty Board, or CRB, of the Library of Congress issued its decision regarding the royalty rate payable by XM and SIRIUS under the statutory license covering the performance of sound recordings over their satellite digital audio radio services for the six-year period starting January 1, 2007 and ending December 31, 2012. Under the terms of the CRB’s decision, we paid a royalty of 6.0% of gross revenues, subject to certain exclusions, for 2007 and 2008, we will pay 6.5% for 2009, 7.0% for 2010, 7.5% for 2011 and 8.0% for 2012. SoundExchange has appealed the decision of the CRB to the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. Oral arguments were heard in March 2009. The parties are awaiting the Court’s decision in this matter.

U.S. Electronics Arbitration. In May 2006, U.S. Electronics Inc., a former licensed distributor and manufacturer of SIRIUS radios, commenced an arbitration proceeding against SIRIUS. U.S. Electronics alleged that SIRIUS breached its contract; failed to pay monies owed under the contract; tortiously interfered with U.S. Electronics’ relationships with retailers and manufacturers; and otherwise acted in bad faith. U.S. Electronics sought up to $133 million in damages. In August 2008, following a 20-day arbitration hearing, a panel of three arbitrators unanimously issued a 149-page Final Award dismissing with prejudice all of U.S. Electronics’ claims, including its claims for lost profits. U.S. Electronics has filed suit in the New York State Court seeking to vacate the decision of the arbitrators.

Atlantic Recording Corporation, BMG Music, Capital Records, Inc., Elektra Entertainment Group Inc., Interscope Records, Motown Record Company, L.P., Sony BMG Music Entertainment, UMG Recordings, Inc., Virgin Records, Inc. and Warner Bros. Records Inc. v. XM Satellite Radio Inc. In May 2006, the plaintiffs filed this action in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. 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.

Matthew Enderlin v. XM Satellite Radio Holdings Inc. and XM Satellite Radio Inc. In January 2006, the plaintiff filed this action in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas on behalf of a purported nationwide class of all XM subscribers. The complaint alleges that XM engaged in deceptive trade practices under Arkansas and other state laws by representing that its music channels are commercial-free. The court stayed the litigation and directed the parties to arbitration. XM instituted arbitration with the American Arbitration Association pursuant to the compulsory arbitration clause in its customer service agreement. The plaintiff has filed a counterclaim in the arbitration on behalf of the class that he seeks to represent. We believe this matter is without merit and intend to vigorously defend the ongoing arbitration. There can be no assurance regarding the ultimate outcome of this matter, 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.

(17) Subsequent Event

On April 28, 2009, our board of directors adopted a rights plan to protect against limitations on our ability to use our net operating loss carryforwards and certain other tax benefits (the “NOLs”) to reduce potential future federal income tax obligations. We have experienced and continue to experience substantial operating losses, and under the Internal Revenue Code and rules promulgated thereunder we may “carry forward” these losses in certain circumstances to offset current and future earnings and reduce our federal income tax liability. We believe that we currently may be able to carry forward our NOLs, and these NOLs may be a substantial asset to us although we presently have a related valuation allowance recorded. An “ownership change,” as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code may substantially limit, our ability to use the NOLs significantly impairing the value of that asset. The terms of the rights and the rights plan are set forth in a Rights Agreement, by and between us and The Bank of New York Mellon, as rights agent, dated as of April 29, 2009 (the “Rights Plan”).

The Rights Plan is intended to act as a deterrent to any person or group (an “Acquiring Person”) acquiring 4.9% or more of our outstanding common stock (assuming for purposes of this calculation that all of our outstanding convertible preferred stock is converted into common stock) without the approval of our board of directors. The Rights Plan exempts future acquisitions of common stock by Liberty Radio, LLC and its affiliates, but does not in any respect alter the respective rights and obligations of the Company and Liberty Radio, LLC and its affiliates under the terms of the Investment Agreement dated as of February 17, 2009, between us and Liberty Radio, LLC. Any rights held by an Acquiring Person are void and may not be exercised. Our board of directors may, in its sole discretion, exempt any person or group from being deemed an Acquiring Person for purposes of the Rights Plan.

The Rights Plan will continue in effect until August 1, 2011, unless it is terminated or redeemed earlier by our board of directors. We plan to submit the Rights Plan to stockholder vote prior to June 30, 2010, and the failure to obtain this approval will result in a termination of the Rights Plan.

For further information regarding the Rights Plan, please refer to the Rights Agreement, which is incorporated by reference as an exhibit to this Report.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(All dollar amounts referenced in this Item 2 are in thousands, unless otherwise stated)

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

The following cautionary statements identify important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in other reports and documents published by us from time to time. Any statements about our beliefs, plans, objectives, expectations, assumptions, future events or performance are not historical facts and may be forward-looking. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “will likely result,” “are expected to,” “will continue,” “is anticipated,” “estimated,” “intend,” “plan,” “projection” and “outlook.” Any forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed throughout our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 (the “Form 10-K”), and in other reports and documents published by us from time to time, particularly the risk factors described under “Business – Risk Factors” in Item 1A of the Form 10-K.

Among the significant factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements are:

•

the substantial indebtedness of SIRIUS, XM Holdings and XM;

•

the possibility that the benefits of the merger with XM Holdings may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize; and the risks associated with the undertakings made to the FCC and the effects of those undertakings on the business of XM and SIRIUS in the future;

•

the useful life of our satellites, which have experienced component failures including, with respect to a number of satellites, failures on their solar arrays, and, in certain cases, are not insured;

•

our dependence upon automakers, many of which have experienced a dramatic drop in sales and are in financial distress, and other third parties, such as manufacturers and distributors of satellite radios, retailers and programming providers; and

•

the competitive position of SIRIUS and XM versus other forms of audio and video entertainment including terrestrial radio, HD radio, internet radio, mobile phones, iPods and other MP3 devices, and emerging next-generation networks and technologies.

Because the risk factors referred to above could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf, you should not place undue reliance on any of these forward-looking statements. In addition, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement or statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made, to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events or otherwise. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict which will arise or to assess with any precision the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

Executive Summary

Our satellite radios are primarily distributed through automakers (“OEMs”); through more than 19,000 retail locations; and through our websites. We have agreements with every major automaker to offer SIRIUS or XM satellite radios as factory or dealer-installed equipment in their vehicles. SIRIUS and XM radios are also offered to customers of rental car companies, including Hertz and Avis.

As of March 31, 2009, we had 18,599,434 subscribers. 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 for prepaid subscriptions included in the sale or lease price of a new vehicle; certain radios activated for daily rental fleet programs; subscribers to SIRIUS Internet Radio and XM Radio Online, our Internet services; and certain subscribers to our weather, traffic, data and video 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 pre-paid and long-term subscriptions as well as discounts for multiple subscriptions on each platform. In 2009, we increased the discounted price for additional subscriptions from $6.99 per month to $8.99 per month. 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 Backseat TV, data and weather services.

We also have an interest in the satellite radio services offered in Canada. Subscribers to the SIRIUS Canada service and the XM Canada service are not included in our subscriber count.

We entered into several agreements which improved our financial position. We entered into an agreement with General Motors to extend the term of XM’s distribution agreement to 2020 and to improve the economic terms of the arrangement. We entered into agreements with certain other third parties to, among other things, restructure lump sum payments coming due; eliminate escrow arrangements in exchange for prepayment of the amount released; and extend agreements. We may enter into similar agreements with additional third parties.

On August 5, 2008, Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. changed its name to Sirius XM Radio Inc. XM Satellite Radio Holdings Inc., together with its subsidiaries, is operated as an unrestricted subsidiary under the agreements governing our existing indebtedness. As an unrestricted subsidiary, transactions between the companies are required to comply with various contractual provisions in our respective debt instruments.

Unaudited Pro Forma Information

Our discussion of our unaudited pro forma information includes non-GAAP financial results that assume the Merger occurred on January 1, 2007. These financial results exclude the impact of purchase price accounting adjustments and refinancing transactions. The discussion also includes the following non-GAAP financial measures: average self-pay monthly churn; conversion rate; average monthly revenue per subscriber, or ARPU; subscriber acquisition cost, or SAC, as adjusted, per gross subscriber addition; customer service and billing expenses, as adjusted, per average subscriber; free cash flow; and adjusted income (loss) from operations. We believe this non-GAAP financial information provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our operating performance and is used for internal management purposes, when publicly providing the business outlook, and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Please refer to the footnotes (pages 50 through 56) following our discussion of results of operations for the definitions and a further discussion of the usefulness of such non-GAAP financial information.

Subscribers. At March 31, 2009 we had 18,599,434 subscribers, an increase of 624,903 subscribers, or 3%, from the 17,974,531 subscribers as of March 31, 2008. Self-pay subscribers increased 1,123,004 since March 31, 2008 while subscribers in paid promotional trials fell 498,101, reflecting the decline in North American auto sales. Gross subscriber additions decreased approximately 34% during the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2008. OEM gross subscriber additions decreased due to the 38% decline in the North American automobile sales and retail gross subscriber additions decreased due to declines in consumer spending. Deactivation rates for self-pay subscriptions increased to 2.2% per month in the quarter reflecting reductions in consumer discretionary spending and subscriber response to our recent increase in prices for multi-subscription accounts, the institution of a monthly charge for our streaming service and channel line-up changes in November 2008;

deactivations due to non-conversions of subscribers in paid promotional trial periods increased as production penetration rates increased.

ARPU. Total ARPU was $10.43 and $10.48 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The decrease was driven mainly by a decrease in net advertising revenue per average subscriber, offset by an increase due to the sale of “Best of” programming.

SAC, As Adjusted, Per Gross Subscriber Addition. SAC, as adjusted, per gross subscriber addition was $61 and $82 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The decrease was primarily driven by fewer OEM installations relative to gross subscriber additions, improved OEM subsidies and higher aftermarket inventory reserves in the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Customer Service and Billing Expenses, As Adjusted, Per Average Subscriber. Customer service and billing expenses, as adjusted, per average subscriber was $1.06 and $1.14 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The decline was primarily due to efficiencies across a larger subscriber base.

Adjusted Income (Loss) from Operations. Our adjusted income (loss) from operations was $108,841 and ($70,154) for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Adjusted income (loss) from operations was favorably impacted by the $26,676 increase in revenues and the $152,319 decrease in expenses included in adjusted income (loss) from operations.

Unaudited Pro Forma Results of Operations. Set forth below are certain pro forma items that give effect to the Merger as if it had occurred on January 1, 2007. The pro forma information below does not give effect to any adjustments as a result of the purchase price accounting for the Merger, nor the goodwill impairment charge taken during 2008. See footnote 8 (pages 51 to 52) for a reconciliation of net loss to adjusted income (loss) from operations.

Highlights for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2009. Our revenue grew 5%, or $26,676, in the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008. This revenue growth was driven by a 6% growth in average subscribers. This increase, combined with a decrease of 48% in subscriber acquisition costs and a decrease of 23% in fixed costs, excluding restructuring and related costs, depreciation and amortization and share-based payment expense, resulted in improved adjusted income (loss) from operations of $108,841 in the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to ($70,154) in the same period in 2008. Total operating expenses, excluding restructuring and related costs, depreciation and amortization and share-based payment expense, decreased by 23%, or $152,319, during the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008.

Satellite and transmission costs decreased 23%, or $5,990, in the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008 due to reductions in maintenance costs, repeater lease expense, and personnel costs. Programming and content costs decreased 10%, or $11,244, in the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008, due mainly to reductions in personnel and on-air talent costs as well as savings on various content agreements. Revenue share and royalties increased by 9%, or $10,119, while maintaining a relatively flat percentage of revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008. Customer service and billing costs decreased by $805 in the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008 due to scale efficiencies over a larger subscriber base. Cost of equipment decreased by 50%, or $8,146, in the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008 as a result of a decrease in our direct to customer sales and lower inventory write-downs. Sales and marketing costs decreased 35%, or $28,072, and have decreased as a percentage of revenue from 14% to 8% in the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008 due to reduced advertising and cooperative marketing spend, as well as, reductions to personnel costs and third party distribution support expenses.

Subscriber acquisition costs decreased 48%, or $77,624, and decreased as a percentage of revenue from 28% to 14% in the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008. This improvement was driven by a 26% improvement in SAC, as adjusted, per gross addition due to fewer OEM installations relative to gross subscriber additions, improved OEM subsidies and higher aftermarket inventory reserves in the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009. Subscriber acquisition costs also decreased as a result of the 34% decline in gross additions during the three months ended March 31, 2009.

General and administrative costs decreased 32%, or $22,903, mainly due to the absence of charges related to certain legal and regulatory matters incurred in 2008 and lower personnel costs. Engineering, design and development costs decreased 48%, or $7,654, in the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008, due to lower costs associated with manufacturing of radios, OEM tooling and manufacturing, and personnel.

Other expenses increased 93%, or $46,802, in the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008 driven mainly by an increase in interest expense of $25,390 and loss from redemption of debt of $17,957. Interest expense increased due primarily to the issuance of the 13% Senior Notes due 2013 and the 7% Exchangeable Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 in the third quarter of 2008.

Unaudited Actual Results of Operations

Our discussion of our unaudited actual results of operations includes the following non-GAAP financial measures: average self-pay monthly churn; conversion rate; average monthly revenue per subscriber, or ARPU; subscriber acquisition cost, or SAC, as adjusted, per gross subscriber addition; customer service and billing expenses, as adjusted, per average subscriber; free cash flow; and adjusted income (loss) from operations. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our operating performance and are used for internal management purposes, when publicly providing the business outlook, and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Please refer to the footnotes (pages 50 to 56) following our discussion of results of operations for the definitions and a further discussion of the usefulness of such non-GAAP financial measures.

The discussion of our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 includes the financial results of XM from the date of the Merger. The inclusion of these results may render direct comparisons with results for prior periods less meaningful. Accordingly, the discussion below addresses trends we believe are significant.

Subscribers. At March 31, 2009 we had 18,599,434 subscribers, an increase of 115% from the 8,644,319 subscribers as of March 31, 2008. The increase was principally a result of the 9,716,070 subscribers acquired in the Merger. Gross additions increased 33% due to the inclusion of XM in our operating results for the quarter, offset in part by declines in retail and OEM gross subscriber additions resulting from declines in North American automotive sales and the effects of reduced consumer spending. Deactivations include the results of XM from the date of the Merger. The deactivation rate for self-pay subscriptions increased while the conversion rate for subscribers in paid promotional trial periods decreased. We believe the decrease resulted from a combination of factors, including reductions in consumer discretionary spending, the subscriber response to our recent increase in prices for multi-subscription accounts, the institution of a monthly charge for our Internet service and our channel line-up changes in November 2008.

ARPU. Total ARPU was $10.13 and $10.42 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The decrease was driven by the effect of purchase price accounting adjustments, subscriber winback programs and a decline in net advertising revenue per average subscriber as subscriber growth exceeded the growth in ad revenues.

We expect ARPU to fluctuate based on promotions, rebates offered to subscribers and corresponding take-rates, plan mix, subscription prices, advertising sales and the identification of additional revenue from subscribers.

SAC, As Adjusted, Per Gross Subscriber Addition. SAC, as adjusted, per gross subscriber addition was $53 and $91 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The decrease was primarily driven by improved OEM subsidies, higher aftermarket inventory reserves in the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009 and improved equipment margins.

We expect SAC, as adjusted, per gross subscriber addition to decline as the costs of subsidized components of SIRIUS and XM radios decrease in the future. Our SAC, as adjusted, per gross subscriber addition will be impacted by our increasing mix of OEM additions and the effects of purchase price accounting adjustments.

Customer Service and Billing Expenses, As Adjusted, Per Average Subscriber. Customer service and billing expenses, as adjusted, per average subscriber increased 1% to $1.06 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $1.05 for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The increase was primarily due to the inclusion of XM, which has historically experienced higher customer service and billing expenses.

We expect customer service and billing expenses, as adjusted, per average subscriber to decrease on an annual basis as our subscriber base grows due to scale efficiencies in our call centers and other customer care and billing operations.

Adjusted Income (Loss) from Operations. Our adjusted income (loss) from operations was $144,221 and ($39,457) for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Adjusted income (loss) from operations was favorably impacted by the $316,629 increase in revenues, partially offset by the $130,868 increase in expenses. See footnote 14 (page 56) for a reconciliation of net loss to adjusted income (loss) from operations.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2009 Compared with Three Months Ended March 31, 2008 — Actual

Total Revenue

Subscriber Revenue. Subscriber revenue includes subscription fees, activation fees and the effects of rebates.

•

Three Months: For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, subscriber revenue was $556,392 and $255,640, respectively, an increase of 118% or $300,752. The Merger was responsible for approximately $284,469 of the increase and the remaining increase was primarily attributable to subscriber growth.

The following table contains a breakdown of our subscriber revenue for the periods presented:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
	2009			2008
Subscription fees	$	550,575		$	250,467
Activation fees		6,056			6,298
Effect of rebates		(239	)		(1,125	)

Total subscriber revenue	$	556,392		$	255,640

Future subscriber revenue will be dependent upon, among other things, the growth of our subscriber base, promotions, rebates offered to subscribers and corresponding take-rates, plan mix, subscription prices and the identification of additional revenue streams from subscribers. We expect subscription revenue to increase due to the inclusion of the full period results of XM.

Advertising Revenue. Advertising revenue includes the sale of advertising on our non-music channels, net of agency fees. Agency fees are based on a stated percentage per the advertising agreements applied to gross billing revenue.

•

Three Months: For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, net advertising revenue was $12,304 and $8,408, respectively, which represents an increase of $3,896. The Merger was responsible for approximately $4,520 of the increase, which was offset by a decrease in ad revenue due to the decline in the current economic environment and the national radio advertising market.

Our advertising revenue is subject to fluctuation based on the national advertising environment. We believe these general economic conditions have negatively affected our advertising revenue in recent quarters. We expect advertising revenue to grow as our subscribers increase, as we continue to improve brand awareness and content, and as we increase the size and effectiveness of our advertising sales force. Additionally, advertising revenue will increase as a result of the inclusion of the full period results of XM.

Equipment Revenue. Equipment revenue includes revenue and royalties from the sale of SIRIUS and XM radios, components and accessories.

•

Three Months: For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, equipment revenue was $9,909 and $6,063, respectively, which represents an increase of $3,846. The Merger was responsible for approximately $5,917 of the increase. The equipment revenue increase was partially offset by a decrease in sales through our direct to consumer distribution channel.

We expect equipment revenue to increase as we introduce new products, integrate XM products and as sales grow through our direct to consumer distribution channel as well as the inclusion of the full period results of XM.

Operating Expenses

Satellite and Transmission. Satellite and transmission expenses consist of costs associated with the operation and maintenance of our satellites; satellite telemetry, tracking and control system; terrestrial repeater network; satellite uplink facility; and broadcast studios.

•

Three Months: For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, satellite and transmission expenses were $20,279 and $7,822, respectively, which represents an increase of $12,457 primarily due to the impact of the Merger. XM satellite and transmission expense accounted for $14,770 during the three months ended March 31, 2009.

We expect satellite and transmission expenses to decrease as we consolidate terrestrial repeater sites and realize other cost savings as a result of the Merger; however such expenses are expected to increase in the aggregate due to the inclusion of the full period results of XM.

Programming and Content. Programming and content expenses include costs to acquire, create and produce content and on-air talent costs. We have entered into various agreements with third parties for music and non-music programming that require us to pay license fees, share advertising revenue, purchase advertising on media properties owned or controlled by the licensor and pay other guaranteed amounts. Purchased advertising is recorded as a sales and marketing expense and the cost of sharing advertising revenue is recorded as Revenue share and royalties in the period the advertising is broadcast.

•

Three Months: For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, programming and content expenses were $80,408 and $61,692, respectively, which represents an increase of $18,716. The increase includes $27,538 of XM’s programming and content expense, which was partially offset by reductions in personnel and on-air talent costs as well as savings on various content agreements.

Our programming and content expenses, excluding share-based payment expense, are expected to decrease as we reduce duplicate programming and content costs, however such expenses are expected to increase in the aggregate due to the inclusion of the full period results of XM.

Revenue Share and Royalties. Revenue share and royalties include distribution and content provider revenue share, residuals and broadcast and web streaming royalties. Residuals are monthly fees paid based upon the number of subscribers using SIRIUS and XM radios purchased from retailers. Advertising revenue share is recorded to revenue share and royalties in the period the advertising is broadcast.

•

Three Months: For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, revenue share and royalties were $100,466 and $42,320, respectively, which represents an increase of $58,146. The increase was primarily attributable to the $49,682 effect of including XM’s revenue share and royalty expense as a result of the Merger, an increase in our revenues and an increase in the statutory royalty rate due for the performance of sound recordings.

We expect these costs to increase as our revenues grow, as we expand our distribution of SIRIUS and XM radios through automakers, as a result of statutory increases in the royalty rate for sound recording performances and as a result of the inclusion of the full period results of XM.

Customer Service and Billing. Customer service and billing expenses include costs associated with the operation of our customer service centers and subscriber management systems as well as bad debt expense.

•

Three Months: For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, customer service and billing expenses were $59,801 and $26,922, respectively, which represents an increase of $32,879 primarily due to the Merger. XM’s customer services and billing expense accounted for $33,732 during the three months ended March 31, 2009.

We expect our customer care and billing expenses to decrease on a per subscriber basis, but increase overall as our subscriber base grows due to increased call center operating costs, transaction fees and bad debt expense associated with a larger subscriber base as well as the inclusion of the full period results of XM.

Cost of Equipment. Cost of equipment includes costs from the sale of SIRIUS and XM radios, components and accessories.

•

Three Months: For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, cost of equipment was $7,993 and $7,588, respectively, which represents an increase of $405. The Merger-related increase of $3,465 was offset mainly by lower sales volume and lower inventory related charges.

We expect cost of equipment to vary in the future with changes in sales through our direct to consumer distribution channel; however, such expenses are expected to increase as a result of the inclusion of the full period results of XM.

Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses include costs for advertising, media and production, including promotional events and sponsorships; cooperative marketing; customer retention and compensation. Cooperative marketing costs include fixed and variable payments to reimburse retailers and automakers for the cost of advertising and other product awareness activities.

•

Three Months: For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, sales and marketing expenses were $51,830 and $38,467, respectively, which represents an increase of $13,363. The Merger-related increase of $32,119 was offset partially by reductions in consumer advertising and cooperative marketing, personnel costs and third party distribution support expenses.

We expect sales and marketing expenses, excluding share-based payment expense, to decrease as we consolidate our advertising and promotional activities, gain efficiencies in marketing management and eliminate overlapping distribution support costs, however such expenses are expected to increase in the aggregate due to the inclusion of the full period results of XM.

Subscriber Acquisition Costs. Subscriber acquisition costs include hardware subsidies paid to radio manufacturers, distributors and automakers, including subsidies paid to automakers who include a SIRIUS or XM radio and a prepaid subscription to our service in the sale or lease price of a new vehicle; subsidies paid for chip sets and certain other components used in manufacturing radios; commissions paid to retailers and automakers as incentives to purchase, install and activate SIRIUS and XM radios; product warranty obligations; provisions for inventory allowance; and compensation costs associated with stock-based awards granted in connection with certain distribution agreements. The majority of subscriber acquisition costs are incurred and expensed in advance of, or concurrent with, acquiring a subscriber. Subscriber acquisition costs do not include advertising, loyalty payments to distributors and dealers of SIRIUS and XM radios, and revenue share payments to automakers and retailers of SIRIUS and XM radios.

•

Three Months: For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, subscriber acquisition costs were $73,068 and $89,824, respectively, which represents a decrease of $16,756. This decrease was primarily due to improved OEM subsidies and higher aftermarket inventory reserves in the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009, partially offset by the impact of the Merger. XM’s subscriber acquisition costs accounted for $26,250 during the three months ended March 31, 2009.

We expect total subscriber acquisition costs to fluctuate as increases or decreases in our gross subscriber additions are accompanied by continuing declines in the costs of subsidized components of SIRIUS and XM radios, but increase overall as a result of the inclusion of the full period results of XM. We intend to continue to offer subsidies, commissions and other incentives to acquire subscribers.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses include rent and occupancy, finance, legal, human resources, information technology and investor relations costs.

Three Months: For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, general and administrative expenses were $59,314 and $48,778, respectively, which represents an increase of $10,536, primarily due to the impact of the Merger, offset by lower costs for certain merger, litigation and regulatory matters.

We expect our general and administrative expenses, excluding share-based payment expense, to decrease in future periods as we integrate XM. General and administrative expenses may fluctuate in certain periods as a result of litigation costs; however such expenses are expected to increase in the aggregate due to inclusion of the full period results of XM.

Engineering, Design and Development. Engineering, design and development expenses include costs to develop our future generation of chip sets and new products, research and development for broadcast information, and costs associated with the incorporation of our radios into vehicles manufactured by automakers.

•

Three Months: For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, engineering, design and development expenses were $9,778 and $8,656, respectively, which represents an increase of $1,122. This increase was primarily due to the impact of the Merger, partially offset by lower costs associated with manufacturing of radios, OEM tooling and manufacturing, and personnel.

We expect engineering, design and development expenses, excluding share-based payment expense, to decrease in future periods as we complete the integration of SIRIUS and XM and gain efficiencies in engineering, design and development activities, however such expenses are expected to increase in the aggregate due to inclusion of the full period results of XM.

Other Income (Expense)

Interest and Investment Income. Interest and investment income includes realized gains and losses, dividends and interest income, including amortization of the premium and discount arising at purchase.

•

Three Months: For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, interest and investment income was $738 and $2,802, respectively. The decrease of $2,064 was primarily attributable to lower interest rates in 2009 and a lower average cash balance.

Interest Expense. Interest expense includes interest on outstanding debt, reduced by interest capitalized in connection with the construction of our satellites and launch vehicles.

•

Three Months: For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, interest expense was $65,743 and $17,675, respectively, which represents an increase of $48,068. Interest expense increased significantly as a result of the Merger, due to additional debt and higher interest rates. Increases in interest expense were partially offset by the capitalized interest associated with satellite construction and related launch vehicle.

Loss from Redemption of Debt. Loss from redemption of debt includes losses incurred as a result of the conversion of our 2¹/2% Convertible Notes due 2009.

•

Three Months: For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, loss from redemption of debt was $17,957 and $0, respectively.

Loss on Investments. Loss on investments includes our share of SIRIUS Canada’s and XM Canada’s net losses, and losses recorded from our investment in XM Canada when the fair value was determined to be other than temporary.

•

Three Months: For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, loss on investment was $7,906 and $0, respectively. The increase was attributable to an impairment charge recorded on our investment in XM Canada in the amount of $3,034 during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and the inclusion of our share of SIRIUS Canada’s and XM Canada’s net losses for the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Income Taxes

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense represents the recognition of a deferred tax liability related to the difference in accounting for our FCC licenses, which is amortized over 15 years for tax purposes but not amortized for book purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

•

Three Months: We recorded income tax expense of $1,115 and $543 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The increase is attributed to the inclusion of XM.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2009 Compared with Three Months Ended March 31, 2008

As of March 31, 2009 and 2008, we had $375,486 and $252,508, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents and $380,446 as of December 31, 2008.

The following table presents a summary of our cash flow activity for the periods set forth below.


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,						Variances
	2009			2008			2009 vs. 2008
Cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities	$	66,871		$	(139,292	)	$	206,163
Cash flows used in investing activities		(70,517	)		(47,235	)		(23,282	)
Cash flows (used in) provided by financing activities		(1,314	)		215			(1,529	)

Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents		(4,960	)		(186,312	)		181,352
Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period		380,446			438,820			(58,374	)

Cash and cash equivalents at end of period	$	375,486		$	252,508		$	122,978

Cash Flows Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $66,871 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared with net cash used in operating activities of $139,292 for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The increase of $206,163 in cash provided by operating activities was primarily the result of a decreased net loss, net of non-cash operating activities of $100,116 and a decrease in cash used in other operating assets and liabilities of $106,047.

Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities increased $23,282 to $70,517 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $47,235 for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The increase was primarily the result of an increase in capital expenditures of $31,915 associated with our satellite construction and launch vehicle, offset by a decrease of $10,641 in Merger-related costs.

We will incur significant capital expenditures to construct and launch our new satellites and to improve our terrestrial repeater network and broadcast and administrative infrastructure. These capital expenditures will support our growth and the resiliency of our operations, and will also support the delivery of future new revenue streams.

Cash Flows (Used in) Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities increased $1,529 to $1,314 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared with net cash provided by financing activities of $215 for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The increase in cash used in financing activities was primarily due to $211,463 in net proceeds received from our credit agreement with Liberty Media, offset by an increase of $198,368 in debt repayment, principally to the holders of our 2 ¹/2% Convertible Notes due 2009, $10,072 in premiums on the redemption of debt and $3,712 in preferred stock issuance costs.

Financings and Capital Requirements

We have historically financed our operations through the sale of debt and equity securities. It will be more difficult to obtain additional financing if prevailing instability in the credit and financial markets continues. The Certificate of Designations for our Series B Preferred Stock provides that so long as Liberty beneficially owns at least half of its initial equity investment, we need the consent of Liberty for certain actions, including the grant or issuance of our equity securities and the incurrence of debt in amounts greater than a stated threshold.

Future Liquidity and Capital Resource Requirements

We have entered into a series of transactions to improve our liquidity and strengthen our balance sheet, including:

•

the issuance of an aggregate of 539,611,513 shares of our common stock for $128,412 aggregate principal amount of our 2 ¹/2% Convertible Notes due 2009;

•

the exchange of $172,485 aggregate principal amount of outstanding 10% Convertible Senior Notes due 2009 of XM Holdings for a like principal amount of XM Holdings’ 10% Senior PIK Secured Notes due June 2011;

•

the execution of agreements with Liberty Media Corporation and its affiliate, Liberty Radio LLC, pursuant to which they have invested an aggregate of $350,000 in the form of loans to us, are committed to invest an additional $180,000 in loans to us, and have received a significant equity interest in us; and

•

the execution of agreements with holders of the Senior Secured Term Loan due 2009 and Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility due 2009 and Liberty Media Corporation and its affiliate, Liberty Radio LLC, pursuant to which maturities were extended under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement due 2011.

See Note 11 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for additional information on certain of these transactions.

Debt Maturing in 2009 and 2010. We have approximately $538,280 of debt maturing in 2009 and 2010, including:

•

at SIRIUS, $1,744 of 8 ³/4% Convertible Subordinated Notes that mature on September 29, 2009;

•

at SIRIUS, $4,375 pursuant to the Senior Secured Term Loan in which quarterly installments of 0.25% of the initial aggregate principal amount are due for the first four and a half years, with the balance of the loan thereafter being repaid in four equal quarterly installments. The Senior Secured Term Loan matures on December 20, 2012;

•

at SIRIUS, $2,500 pursuant to the LM Credit Agreement in which quarterly installments equal to (i) 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the loans outstanding on January 1, 2010 are due beginning March 31, 2010 and (ii) after December 31, 2011, 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the loans outstanding on January 1, 2012. The loan matures on December 20, 2012;

•

at XM Holdings, $227,515 of 10% Convertible Senior Notes that mature on December 1, 2009;

•

at XM Holdings and XM (as co-obligors), $33,249 of 10% Senior Secured Discount Convertible Notes that mature on December 31, 2009;

•

at XM, a $325,000 credit facility, $75,000 of which is due in the remaining nine months of 2009, $25,000 of which is due on March 31, 2010, $150,000 of which is due on May 5, 2010 and $75,000 of which is due in May 2011; and

•

at XM Holdings, $18,897 of capital lease payments.

We believe our existing cash balances, available borrowings under credit facilities and our cash flows from operating activities will be sufficient to repay these debt obligations maturing in 2009 and 2010.

Debt Maturing in 2011. As a result of our 2011 debt maturities, our existing cash balances, available borrowings under credit facilities and our cash flows from operating activities may not be sufficient to fund our projected cash needs. We may not be able to access additional sources of refinancing on similar terms or pricing as those that are currently in place, or at all, or otherwise obtain other sources of funding. An inability to access replacement or additional sources of liquidity to fund our cash needs or to refinance or otherwise fund the repayment of our maturing debt could adversely affect our growth, our financial condition, or results of operations, and our ability to make payments on our debt, and could force us to seek the protection of the bankruptcy laws. It will be more difficult to obtain additional financing if prevailing instability in credit and financial markets continues.

Credit Agreement with Space Systems/Loral. In July 2007, SIRIUS amended and restated its Credit Agreement with Space Systems/Loral (the “Loral Credit Agreement”). Under the Loral Credit Agreement, Space Systems/Loral agreed to make loans to SIRIUS to finance the purchase of SIRIUS’ fifth and sixth satellites. Loral’s commitment is limited to approximately $25,688, or 80% of the amount due with respect to the construction of our sixth satellite. Loans made under the Loral Credit Agreement will be secured by SIRIUS’ rights under the Satellite Purchase Agreement with Space Systems/Loral, including SIRIUS’ rights to the new satellites. The loans are also entitled to the benefits of a subsidiary guarantee from Satellite CD Radio, Inc., the subsidiary that holds SIRIUS’ FCC license, and any future material subsidiary that may be formed by SIRIUS. The maturity date of the loans is the earliest to occur of (i) June 10, 2010, (ii) 90 days after our sixth satellite becomes available for shipment, and (iii) 30 days prior to the scheduled launch of the sixth satellite. Any loans made under the Loral Credit Agreement generally will bear interest at a variable rate equal to three-month LIBOR plus 4.75%. The Loral Credit Agreement permits SIRIUS to prepay all or a portion of the loans outstanding without penalty.

SIRIUS has not requested any loans under the Loral Credit Agreement with Space Systems/Loral. The Loral Credit Agreement contains certain conditions to borrowing.

Operating Liquidity. Based upon our current plans, and other than our need to refinance our debt maturing in 2011, we believe that we have sufficient cash, cash equivalents, available borrowings under our credit facilities and marketable securities to cover the estimated funding needs through cash flow breakeven, the point at which revenues are sufficient to fund expected operating expenses, capital expenditures, working capital requirements, interest payments and taxes. The ability to meet our debt and other obligations depends on our future operating performance and on economic, financial, competitive and other factors. We continually review our operations for opportunities to adjust the timing of expenditures to ensure that sufficient resources are maintained. We have the ability

and intend to manage the timing and related expenditures of certain activities, including the launch of satellites, the deferral of capital projects, as well as the deferral of other discretionary expenses. Our financial projections are based on assumptions, which we believe are reasonable but contain significant uncertainties. There can be no assurance that our plan will be successful.

We are the sole stockholder of XM Holdings and its subsidiaries and its business is operated as an unrestricted subsidiary under the agreements governing our existing indebtedness. Under certain circumstances, SIRIUS may be unwilling or unable to contribute or loan XM capital to support its operations. Similarly, under certain circumstances, XM may be unwilling or unable to contribute or loan SIRIUS capital to support its operations. To the extent XM’s funds are insufficient to support its business, XM may be required to seek additional financing, which may not be available on favorable terms, or at all. If XM is unable to secure additional financing, its business and results of operations may be adversely affected.

Tightening credit policies could also adversely impact our operational liquidity by making it more difficult or costly for our subscribers to access credit, and could have an adverse impact on our operational liquidity as a result of possible changes to our payment arrangements that credit card companies and other credit providers could unilaterally make.

We regularly evaluate our plans and strategy. These evaluations often result in changes to our plans and strategy, some of which may be material and significantly change our cash requirements or cause us to achieve cash flow breakeven at a later date. These changes in our plans or strategy may include: the acquisition of unique or compelling programming; the introduction of new features or services; significant new or enhanced distribution arrangements; investments in infrastructure, such as satellites, equipment or radio spectrum; and acquisitions of third parties that own programming, distribution, infrastructure, assets, or any combination of the foregoing. In addition, our operations will also be affected by the FCC order approving the Merger which imposed certain conditions upon, among other things, our program offerings and our ability to increase prices. Our future liquidity also may be adversely affected by, among other things, the nature and extent of the benefits achieved by operating XM as a wholly owned unrestricted subsidiary under our existing indebtedness.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We are required under the terms of certain agreements to provide letters of credit and deposit monies in escrow, which place restrictions on cash and cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, $3,250 and $141,250, respectively, was classified as restricted investments as a result of obligations under these letters of credit and escrow deposits. In February 2009, we released to programming providers an aggregate of $138,000 held in escrow in satisfaction of future obligations under our agreements with them.

We do not have any significant off-balance sheet arrangements other than those disclosed is Item 1. Note 15, Commitments and Contingencies that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

2003 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan

SIRIUS maintains the Sirius Satellite Radio 2003 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (the “2003 Plan”). Employees, consultants and members of our board of directors are eligible to receive awards under the 2003 Plan. The 2003 Plan provides for the grant of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards that the compensation committee of our board of directors may deem appropriate. Vesting and other terms of stock-based awards are set forth in the agreements with the individuals receiving the awards. Stock-based awards granted under the 2003 Plan are generally subject to a vesting requirement. Stock option awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of our common stock at the date of grant and expire no later than ten years from the date of grant. Each restricted stock unit entitles the holder to receive one share of our common stock upon vesting.

As of March 31, 2009, approximately 54,930,000 shares of our common stock were available for grant under the 2003 Plan. During the three months ended March 31, 2009, employees did not exercise stock options.

2007 Stock Incentive Plan

XM Holdings maintains a 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”) under which officers, other employees and other key individuals of XM may be granted various types of equity awards, including restricted stock, stock units, stock options, stock appreciation rights, dividend equivalent rights and other stock awards. Stock option awards under the 2007 Plan generally vest ratably over three years based on continuous service, while restricted stock generally vests ratably over one or three years based on continuous service. Stock option awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of our common stock at the date of grant and expire no later than ten years from the date of grant. Grants of equity awards other than stock options or stock appreciation rights reduce the number of shares available for future grant by 1.5 times the number of shares granted under such equity awards. Since the Merger, there have been no grants of awards from the 2007 Plan. As of March 31, 2009, there were approximately 63,154,000 shares available for future grant under the 2007 Plan.

XM Talent Option Plan

XM Holdings maintains a Talent Option Plan (the “Talent Plan”) under which non-employee programming consultants to XM may be granted stock option awards. Stock option awards under the Talent Plan generally vest ratably over three years based on continuous service. Stock option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of our common stock at the date of grant and expire no later than ten years from the date of grant. Since the Merger, there have been no grants of awards from the Talent Plan. As of March 31, 2009, there were 1,564,000 options available under the Talent Plan for future grant.

As of March 31, 2009, approximately 167,246,000 stock options, shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units were outstanding under all of our plans.

Footnotes to Results of Operations

(1)	Average self-pay monthly churn represents the monthly average of self-pay deactivations by the quarter divided by the average self-pay subscriber balance for the quarter.

(2)

We measure the percentage of subscribers that receive our service and convert to self-paying after the initial promotion period. We refer to this as the “conversion rate.” At the time of sale, vehicle owners generally receive between three and twelve month prepaid trial subscriptions and we receive a subscription fee from the OEM. Promotional periods generally include the period of trial service plus 30 days to handle the receipt and processing of payments. We measure conversion rate three months after the period in which the trial service ends. Based on our experience it may take up to 90 days after the trial service ends for subscribers to respond to our marketing communications and become self-paying subscribers.

(3)	ARPU is derived from total earned subscriber revenue and net advertising revenue, divided by the number of months in the period, divided by the daily weighted average number of subscribers for the period. ARPU is calculated as follows (in thousands, except for per subscriber amounts):

Average self-pay monthly churn; conversion rate; ARPU; SAC, as adjusted, per gross subscriber addition; customer service and billing expenses, as adjusted, per average subscriber; and free cash flow are not measures of financial performance under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our operating performance and are used by us for budgetary and planning purposes; when publicly providing our business outlook; as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons; and to compare our performance to that of our competitors. We also believe that investors also use our current and projected metrics to monitor the performance of our business and to make investment decisions.

We believe the exclusion of share-based payment expense in our calculations of SAC, as adjusted, per gross subscriber addition and customer service and billing expenses, as adjusted, per average subscriber is useful given the significant variation in expense that can result from changes in the fair market value of our common stock, the effect of which is unrelated to the operational conditions that give rise to variations in the components of our subscriber acquisition costs and customer service and billing expenses. Specifically, the exclusion of share-based payment expense in our calculation of SAC, as adjusted, per gross subscriber addition is critical in being able to understand the economic impact of the direct costs incurred to acquire a subscriber and the effect over time as economies of scale are reached.

These non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures may be susceptible to varying calculations; may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies; and should not be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

(8)

We refer to net loss before interest and investment income, interest expense net of amounts capitalized, income tax expense, loss from redemption of debt, loss on investments, other expense (income), restructuring and related cost, depreciation and amortization, and share related payment expense as adjusted income (loss) from operations. Adjusted income (loss) from operations is not a measure of financial performance under U.S. GAAP. We believe adjusted income (loss) from operations is a useful measure of our operating performance. We use adjusted income (loss) from operations for budgetary and planning purposes; to assess the relative profitability and on-going performance of our consolidated operations; to compare our performance from period–to-period; and to compare our performance to that of our competitors. We also believe adjusted income (loss) from operations is useful to investors to compare our operating performance to the performance of other communications, entertainment and media companies. We believe that investors use current and projected adjusted income (loss) from operations to estimate our current or prospective enterprise value and to make investment decisions.

Because we fund and build-out our satellite radio system through the periodic raising and expenditure of large amounts of capital, our results of operations reflect significant charges for interest and depreciation expense. We believe adjusted income (loss) from operations provides useful information about the operating performance of our business apart from the costs associated with our capital structure and physical plant. The exclusion of interest and depreciation and amortization expense is useful given fluctuations in interest rates and significant variation in depreciation and amortization expense that can result from the amount and timing of capital expenditures and potential variations in estimated useful lives, all of which can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. We believe the exclusion of taxes is appropriate for comparability purposes as the tax positions of companies can vary because of their differing abilities to take advantage of tax benefits and because of the tax policies of the various jurisdictions in which they operate. We believe the exclusion of restructuring and related costs is useful given the non-recurring nature of these transactions. We also believe the exclusion of share-based payment expense is useful given the significant variation in expense that can result from changes in the fair market value of our common stock. To compensate for the exclusion of taxes, other (expense) income, depreciation and amortization and share-based payment expense, we separately measure and budget for these items.

There are material limitations associated with the use of adjusted income (loss) from operations in evaluating our company compared with net loss, which reflects overall financial performance, including the effects of taxes, other income (expense), depreciation and amortization, restructuring and related costs and share-based payment expense. We use adjusted income (loss) from operations to supplement GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone. Investors that wish to compare and evaluate our operating results after giving effect for these costs, should refer to net loss as disclosed in our unaudited consolidated statements of operations. Since adjusted income (loss) from operations is a non-GAAP financial measure, our calculation of adjusted income (loss) from operations may be susceptible to varying calculations; may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies; and should not be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The reconciliation of the pro forma unadjusted net loss to the pro forma adjusted income (loss) from operations is calculated as follows (see footnotes for reconciliation of the pro forma amounts to their respective GAAP amounts):

There are material limitations associated with the use of a pro forma unadjusted results of operations in evaluating our company compared with our GAAP Results of operations, which reflects overall financial performance. We use pro forma unadjusted results of operations to supplement GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone. Investors that wish to compare and evaluate our operating results after giving effect for these costs, should refer to Results of operations as disclosed in our unaudited consolidated statements of operations. Since pro forma unadjusted results of operations is a non-GAAP financial measure, our calculations may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies; and should not be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

We refer to net loss before interest and investment income, interest expense net of amounts capitalized, income tax expense, loss from redemption of debt, loss on investments, other expense (income), restructuring and related cost, depreciation and amortization, and share related payment expense as adjusted income (loss) from operations. Adjusted income (loss) from operations is not a measure of financial performance under U.S. GAAP. We believe adjusted income (loss) from operations is a useful measure of our operating performance. We use adjusted income (loss) from operations for budgetary and planning purposes; to assess the relative profitability and on-going performance of our consolidated operations; to compare our performance from period-to-period; and to compare our performance to that of our competitors. We also believe adjusted income (loss) from operations is useful to investors to compare our operating performance to the performance of other communications, entertainment and media companies. We believe that investors use current and projected adjusted income (loss) from operations to estimate our current or prospective enterprise value and to make investment decisions.

Because we fund and build-out our satellite radio system through the periodic raising and expenditure of large amounts of capital, our results of operations reflect significant charges for interest and depreciation expense. We believe adjusted income (loss) from operations provides useful information about the operating performance of our business apart from the costs associated with our capital structure and physical plant. The exclusion of interest and depreciation expense is useful given fluctuations in interest rates and significant variation in depreciation and amortization expense that can result from the amount and timing of capital expenditures and potential variations in estimated useful lives, all of which can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. We believe the exclusion of taxes is appropriate for comparability purposes as the tax positions of companies can vary because of their differing abilities to take advantage of tax benefits and because of the tax policies of the various jurisdictions in which they operate. We believe the exclusion of restructuring and related costs is useful given the non-recurring nature of these transactions. We also believe the exclusion of share-based payment expense is useful given the significant variation in expense that can result from changes in the fair market value of our common stock. To compensate for the exclusion of taxes, other (expense) income, depreciation and amortization and share-based payment expense, we separately measure and budget for these items.

There are material limitations associated with the use of adjusted income (loss) from operations in evaluating our company compared with net loss, which reflects overall financial performance, including the effects of taxes, other income (expense), depreciation and share-based payment expense. We use adjusted income (loss) from operations to supplement GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone. Investors that wish to compare and evaluate our operating results after giving effect for these costs, should refer to net loss as disclosed in our unaudited consolidated statements of operations. Since adjusted income (loss) from operations is a non-GAAP financial measure, our calculation of adjusted income (loss) from operations may be susceptible to varying calculations; may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies; and should not be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISKS

As of March 31, 2009, we did not have any derivative financial instruments. We do not hold or issue any free-standing derivatives. We hold investments in marketable securities, which consist of auction rate certificates and a notes investment. We classify our marketable securities as available-for-sale. We hold an investment in auction rate certificates which are classified as available-for-sale. These securities are consistent with the investment objectives contained within our investment policy. The basic objectives of our investment policy are the preservation of capital, maintaining sufficient liquidity to meet operating requirements and maximizing yield.

Our debt includes fixed and variable rate instruments and the fair market value of our debt is sensitive to changes in interest rates. Under our current policies, we do not use interest rate derivative instruments to manage our exposure to interest rate fluctuations.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Controls and Procedures

As of March 31, 2009, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including Mel Karmazin, our Chief Executive Officer, and David J. Frear, our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2009. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2009.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Matthew Enderlin v. XM Satellite Radio Holdings Inc. and XM Satellite Radio Inc. In January 2006, the plaintiff filed this action in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas on behalf of a purported nationwide class of all XM subscribers. The complaint alleges that XM engaged in a deceptive trade practices under Arkansas and other state laws by representing that its music channels are commercial-free. The court stayed the litigation and directed the parties to arbitration. XM instituted arbitration with the American Arbitration Association pursuant to the compulsory arbitration clause in its customer service agreement. The plaintiff has filed a counterclaim in the arbitration on behalf of the class that he seeks to represent. We believe this matter is without merit and intend to vigorously defend the ongoing arbitration. There can be no assurance regarding the ultimate outcome of this matter, or the significance, if any, to our business, consolidated results of operations or financial position.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

Other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in response to Part 1, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

The bankruptcy of Chrysler LLC and other major automakers may negatively affect our subscriber growth, business and prospects.

On April 30, 2009, Chrysler LLC filed for bankruptcy protection under Title 11 of the United States Code. Chrysler’s bankruptcy may have certain adverse effects on us, including:

•

Chrysler has announced that it plans to idle its plants during the pendency of its bankruptcy case. We do not expect to generate a significant number of new subscribers from Chrysler while its plants are closed. During the year ended December 31, 2008, Chrysler produced approximately 900,000 vehicles which included a satellite radio and a prepaid subscription to our service. These subscribers represented approximately 16% of our gross subscriber additions in 2008.

•

As part of its bankruptcy case, Chrysler may reject or assume its agreement with us. If Chrysler rejects our agreement, we could lose a significant source of future subscribers to our service, but we would be released from our obligations to Chrysler to share revenue, provide equipment subsidizes and make other payments. We do not have any reason to believe Chrysler will reject its agreement with us.

•

Chrysler’s bankruptcy could also disrupt and/or delay the payment of certain amounts to us, particularly amounts owed to us by Chrysler on the date of the bankruptcy filing for subscriptions to our service.

There is also significant uncertainty surrounding General Motors’ future and potential filing for bankruptcy protection. A bankruptcy filing by General Motors could have similar effects on our subsidiary, XM. Specifically, a General Motors bankruptcy could reduce the number of subscribers we realize from General Motors, would allow General Motors to accept or reject its agreement with XM, and could disrupt and/or delay the payment of certain amounts to XM. Similarly, if General Motors rejected its agreement with XM, XM would be released from significant financial obligations to General Motors.
