Re: Sirius XM Radio Inc. (the “Company”)
  Nasdaq Security: Common Stock
  Nasdaq Symbol: SIRI

Dear Mr. Donnelly:

As we discussed, our Listing Rules (the “Rules”) require listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share. Based upon the closing bid price for the last 30 consecutive business days, the Company no longer meets this requirement.1 Consequently, a deficiency exists with regard to the Rule. However, the Rules also provide the Company a grace period of 180 calendar days in which to regain compliance. The following table summarizes the critical dates and information as related to this matter.

  Expiration of 180 calendar    
Period below $1.00 bid price day grace period Press Release Due Date Relevant Listing Rules
  March 15, 2010 September 21, 2009 5450(a)(1) – bid price
August 3, 2009 to 5810(c)(3)(A) – grace period
September 14, 2009 5810(b)– public disclosure
  5505 – Capital Market criteria

If at anytime during this grace period the bid price of the Company’s security closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, we will provide you written confirmation of compliance and this matter will be closed.

In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the Rule prior to the expiration of the grace period, it will receive written notification that its securities are subject to delisting.2 Alternatively, the Company may be eligible for an additional grace period if it meets the initial listing standards, with the exception of bid price, for The Nasdaq Capital Market. To avail itself of this alternative, the Company will need to submit an application to transfer its securities to TheNasdaq Capital Market.3

 
1 For online access to all Nasdaq Rules, please see “Nasdaq Reference Links,” included with this letter.
2 At that time, the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a Hearing’s Panel.
3 For on-line access to the appropriate Transfer Application, please see “Nasdaq Reference Links.”
