Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Amendment and Restatement of Existing Bank Facilities and Extension of Maturities Therein
     On March 6, 2009, XM Satellite Radio Inc. (“XM”), our wholly-owned subsidiary, amended and restated (i) the $100 million Credit Agreement, dated as of June 26, 2008, among XM, XM Satellite Radio Holdings Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary and the parent of XM (“XM Holdings”), the lenders named therein and UBS AG, as administrative agent (the “UBS Term Loan”) and (ii) the $250 million Credit Agreement, 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 Previous Facilities have been combined as term loans into the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of March 6, 2009, among XM, XM Holdings, the lenders named therein and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “First-Lien Credit Agreement”), and Liberty Media LLC (the “Purchaser”) has purchased $100 million aggregate principal amount of such loans from the lenders. XM paid a restructuring fee of 2% to the existing lenders under the Previous Facilities.
     Loans under the First-Lien Credit Agreement held by existing lenders (the “Tranche A” and the “Tranche B” term loans) will mature on May 5, 2010 and the remaining loans purchased by Liberty (the “Tranche C” term loans) will mature on May 5, 2011. The Tranche A and the Tranche B term loans are subject to scheduled quarterly amortization payments of $25 million starting on March 31, 2009. The Tranche C term loans are subject to a partial amortization of $25 million on March 31, 2010, with all remaining amounts due on the final maturity date. Pursuant to these maturities and the scheduled amortization payments, of the outstanding principal amount, 29% of the $350 million is due in 2009; 50% in 2010; and 21% in 2011. The loans will bear interest at rates ranging from prime plus 11% to LIBOR (subject to a 3% floor) plus 12%.
     The loans under the First-Lien Credit Agreement are guaranteed by XM Holdings and each of the subsidiary guarantors named therein. The loans are secured by a first lien on substantially all of the assets of XM Holdings, XM and certain subsidiaries named therein. The affirmative covenants, negative covenants and event of default provisions contained in the First-Lien Credit Agreement are substantially similar to those contained in the Previous Facilities, except that: (i) XM must maintain cash reserves of $75 million (without taking into account any proceeds from the Second-Lien Credit Agreement (as defined below)), (ii) we must maintain cash reserves of $35 million, (iii) XM Holdings and XM must maintain certain EBITDA levels set forth therein and (iv) an event of default shall occur upon the acceleration of any our material indebtedness or in the event of our voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy.
Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Liberty Media
     On March 6, 2009, XM entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Second-Lien Credit Agreement”) with Liberty Media Corporation, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and simultaneously closed the facility. Pursuant to the Second-Lien Credit Agreement, XM may borrow $150 million aggregate principal amount of term loans on December 1, 2009. The proceeds of the loans will be used to repay a portion of the 10% Convertible Notes due 2009 of XM Holdings on the stated maturity date thereof. The Second-Lien Credit Agreement matures on March 1, 2011, and bears interest at 15% per annum. XM will pay a commitment fee of 2% per annum on the undrawn portion of the Second-Lien Credit Agreement until the date of disbursement of the loans or the termination of the commitments.
