All of the SEC Reports, as of their respective dates, complied as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

(b) The financial statements included in the SEC Reports (collectively, the “Financial Statements”) fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Parent and its Subsidiaries (with respect to the Parent SEC Reports) or XM Satellite and its Subsidiaries (with respect to the XM Satellite SEC Reports) as of the dates indicated, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods therein specified, all in accordance GAAP throughout the periods therein specified (except as otherwise noted therein, and in the case of quarterly financial statements except for the absence of footnote disclosure and subject, in the case of interim periods, to normal year-end adjustments).

Section 3.21 WKSI Shelf. The registration statement on Form S-3ASR filed by Parent with the SEC on December 30, 2008, file number 333-156495 (the “WKSI Shelf”) is an “automatic shelf registration statement” as defined in Rule 405, is effective and conforms to the requirements of the Securities Act.

Section 3.22 Prospectus Supplement. Following the filing of the Prospectus Supplement by Parent naming the Purchasers as selling stockholders, the Structuring Fee Shares issued on the Delivery Date will not constitute “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act and will be transferable by the Purchasers pursuant to the Registration Statement.

Neither Guarantor has any liability as a primary obligor or guarantor under any of the debt instruments, indentures or agreements to which the Parent, XM Satellite or any of their respective Subsidiaries is a party. Neither of the Guarantors is a “Restricted Subsidiary” as defined in any of the material indentures or other credit agreements to which Parent is a party. Neither Guarantor has any material indebtedness, and each Guarantor has valid and marketable title to their respective interests in the Mortgaged Property, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances other than those that would not materially adversely affect the operation of the Mortgaged Property.

Section 4.4 Suspension. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary, Parent may suspend the availability of the Registration Statement by written notice to the Purchasers for a period not to exceed an aggregate of 15 days in any 90-day period (each such period, a “Suspension Period”) if an event occurs and is continuing as a result of which the Registration Statement, any related prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by reference therein would, in Parent’s judgment, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that, Suspension Periods shall not exceed an aggregate of 60 days in any 360-day period.

(b)

(i) XM Satellite, the Guarantors and Parent, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnitees from and against any and all actual losses, claims, damages or liabilities to any such Indemnitee arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any issuer free writing prospectus or prospectus relating to the Structuring Fee Shares (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

Section 7.3 Contribution.

(a) If the indemnification provided for in Section 7.2 is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless the indemnified person in respect of any or all actual losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, the indemnifying person shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such actual losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred by the Indemnitees, as incurred, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by XM Satellite, the Guarantors and Parent on the one hand and the Indemnitees on the other hand from the Transactions or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of XM Satellite, the Guarantors and Parent on the one hand and of the Indemnitees on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The obligations of XM Satellite, the Guarantors and Parent pursuant to this Section 7.3(a) shall be joint and several and the obligations of each Purchaser pursuant to this Section 7.3(a) shall be several and not joint.

(b) The relative benefit received by XM Satellite, the Guarantors and Parent in connection with the Transactions shall be equal to the total aggregate principal amount of the Notes (before deducting expenses) received by Sirius XM and the Guarantors. The relative benefit received by an Indemnitee in connection with the Transactions shall be the net proceeds received by the applicable Purchaser in the sale of the Structuring Fee Shares.

(c) The relative fault of XM Satellite, the Guarantors and Parent on the one hand and the Indemnitees on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the matters for which the Indemnitees are granted indemnification from XM Satellite, the Guarantors and Parent arise pursuant to Section 7.2(a) or, in the case of matters for which the Indemnitees are granted indemnification under Section 7.2(b) or matters for which XM Satellite, the Guarantors and Parent are granted indemnification under Section 7.2(c), whether such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by XM Satellite, the Guarantors and Parent or by the Indemnitees and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(d) XM Satellite, the Guarantors and Parent on the one hand and the Indemnitees on the other hand agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7.3 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 7.3. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an Indemnitee and referred to above in this Section 7.3 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

Section 7.4 Waiver of Punitive Damages. To the extent permitted by applicable law, none of the parties hereto shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against the other parties (including their respective Affiliates, partners, stockholders, members, directors, officers, agents, employees and controlling persons), on any theory of liability for special, indirect, consequential or

punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby and the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Exchanges, the issuance of the XM Satellite Notes and the issuance of the Structuring Fee Shares).
