REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Employee Benefits Committee of the
Sirius XM Radio 401(k) Savings Plan:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Sirius XM
Radio 401(k) Savings Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statement of
changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2010. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plans management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and
the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2010, in
conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements
taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental Schedule H, line 4a schedule of delinquent
participant contributions for the year ended December 31, 2010, Schedule H, line 4i schedule of
assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2010, and Schedule H, line 4j schedule of
reportable transactions for the year ended December 31, 2010 are presented for the purpose of
additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are
supplementary information required by the Department of Labors Rules and Regulations for Reporting
and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These supplemental
schedules are the responsibility of the Plans management. The supplemental schedules have been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in
our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole.

SIRIUS XM RADIO 401(k) SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
1. Background and Plan Description
Sirius XM Radio Inc. (the Company or the Plan Sponsor) sponsors the Sirius XM Radio 401(k)
Savings Plan (the Plan) to provide eligible employees with a method of saving for their
retirement and other needs. The Plan is a defined contribution plan subject to applicable
provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA). The Plans
inception date was September 1, 1998.
Effective March 1, 2009, the Plan was merged with the XM Satellite Radio Inc., 401(k)
Retirement Plan (the XM Plan). The 1,425 eligible employees under the XM Plan became subject to
the provisions of the Sirius XM Radio 401(k) Savings Plan effective on that date.
The following description of the Plan provides only general information. Participants should
refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plans provisions and information
regarding eligibility, contributions, distributions, vesting, withdrawals, loans and definitions of
all terms.
Eligibility
Participation in the Plan begins on the first day of the calendar month following the date in
which an employee has: (a) been classified as a Class A Employee as defined in the Plan document;
(b) attained the age of 21; and (c) completed one full month of eligible service, as defined in the
Plan document.
Contributions
Participants may elect to contribute from 1% to 50% of eligible compensation, as defined,
provided contributions do not exceed maximum allowable amounts under the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the Code). Under the Code, individual contributions for which taxes may be
deferred were limited to $16,500 in 2010. The Code also allows participants age 50 and over to
make supplemental catch-up contribution on a pretax basis, which may not exceed $5,500 for the
calendar year ended December 31, 2010. Participants may roll over amounts from other qualified
defined benefit or defined contribution plans. Rollovers for the year ended December 31, 2010 were
approximately $505,000. Participants contributions vest immediately and can only be withdrawn
pursuant to the appropriate provisions of the Code.
The Plan provides for discretionary employer matching contributions, in the form of shares of
common stock of the Company, based on participant elective deferral percentages. For the year ended
December 31, 2010, the Companys discretionary employer matching contribution was equal to 50% of
participants elective deferrals, up to 6% of eligible compensation. The total matching
contributions for the year ended December 31, 2010 were approximately $3,370,000 which were paid in
the form of 6,175,089 shares of the Companys common stock.
The Company may also elect to make additional discretionary contributions to the Plan based
upon the total compensation of all employees eligible to receive an allocation. These additional
contributions, referred to as profit-sharing contributions, are determined by the compensation
committee of the Companys board of directors. Employees are only eligible to share in
profit-sharing contributions during any year in which they are employed on the last day of the year
and met the Plans eligibility requirements. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company did
not elect to make a profit sharing contribution.
Participant Accounts
Each participants account is credited with participant contributions, employer matching and
profit-sharing contributions and allocations of Plan earnings. Allocations of Plan earnings are
based on participant account balances. A participant is entitled to the benefit that can be
provided from the participants vested account balance.
Fund investments are generally redeemable daily and have no restrictions.
4
Employer contributions are remitted to the Plan in shares of common stock of the Company.
Participants are allowed to allocate the employer contributions to other investment alternatives
immediately following the contribution.
Vesting
Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus earnings thereon. Employer
matching and profit-sharing contributions begin one year after the participants service begins.
These contributions vest at the following rates: 33% upon the completion of the first year of
service, 67% upon completion of two years of service and 100% upon the completion of the third year
of service. In addition, a participant becomes fully vested in his or her employer matching and
profit-sharing contributions upon his or her normal retirement date (age 65), disability or death,
or if there is a partial or full termination of the Plan. The former XM Plan participants are
grandfathered to 100% vesting for all current and future contributions.
Distributions of Benefits
Upon termination of employment due to death, disability, retirement or upon attaining age 59
1/2, a participant may receive a lump sum amount equal to the value of
the participants vested interest in his or her account. In addition, participants may elect to
withdraw funds from their respective accounts in the event of hardship, as defined by the Plan
document.
Loans Receivables from Participants
The Plan provides for loans to active participants. Participants may borrow up to the lesser
of $50,000 or 50% of the vested portions of the participants account balance. The amount available
for future borrowings by participants is reduced by the amount of their highest outstanding loan
balance during the previous one-year period. Loans are secured by the balance in the participants
account and bear interest at the prime interest rate plus 1%. The term of any loan is no greater
than five years, except in the case of a loan used to acquire a principal residence, in which case,
the term is determined when the loan is made which may not exceed 10 years. Repayments must be
substantially equal installments, are generally made by payroll deductions and made not less
frequently than quarterly. Some exceptions are made for unpaid leaves.
Forfeitures
Non-vested employer matching contributions are forfeited upon termination of employment or a
participants withdrawal from the Plan. Forfeitures are used to pay Plan expenses and to reduce
employer contributions. Forfeitures for the year ended December 31, 2010 were $78,000. Unallocated
non-vested assets were approximately $162,100 and $82,000 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009,
respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2010, forfeitures used to reduce the Companys
administrative expenses were approximately $1,300. During the year ended December 31, 2010,
forfeitures were not used to reduce employer contributions.
Administrative Expenses
Administrative expenses are paid by the Plan to the extent allowed by the Plan document and
are not paid by the Company.
Assets Held in Trust
Since April 1, 2005, all assets of the Plan are held by Prudential Retirement Services, an
operating division of Prudential Financial. The operations of Prudential Retirement Services are
conducted principally through Prudential Retirement Insurance & Annuity Company (PRIAC), a wholly
owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial. PRIAC is responsible for, among other things, the
custody and investing of the Plans assets and the payment of benefits to eligible participants.
Prudential Bank & Trust Company, FSB, a wholly owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, serves as
the trustee for which PRIAC is the record keeper.
5

is not an indicator of future results.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements of the Plan have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
Payment of Benefits
For financial statement purposes, participant withdrawals and distributions (benefits
payments) are recorded when paid.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASC Update 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures:
Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. This guidance amends ASC 820 that requires the
reporting entity to disclose additional information on: (i) significant transfers in and out of
Levels 1 and 2 measurements and reasons for transfers; (ii) Level 3 gross purchases, sales,
issuances, and settlements information; (iii) measurement disclosures by classes of assets and
liabilities; and (iv) a description of the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair
value is required for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The new disclosures
and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods
beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and
settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures
are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within
those fiscal years. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on
the Plans net assets available for benefits.
In September 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-25, Plan AccountingDefined Contribution Pension
Plans (Topic 962): Reporting Loans to Participants by Defined Contribution Pension Plans. This
guidance requires that participant loans in the financial statements of defined contribution
pension plans be classified as loans receivable, segregated from plan investments, and carried at
amortized cost plus any accrued but unpaid interest and that such loans are exempt from the fair
value and credit quality disclosure requirements. This ASU is effective for fiscal years ending
after December 15, 2010 and should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. The
Plan has adopted the guidance and amended the presentation of participant loans in our financial
statements and related disclosures.
Use of Estimates
In presenting the Plans financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that
affect the amounts reported and accompanying notes. Estimates, by their nature, are based on
judgment and available information. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements
include the fair value of Plan assets and net appreciation in the fair value of investments. The
economic conditions in the United States and globally have impacted the Plans assets. Such
conditions could have a material impact to our accounting estimates.
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
Investments in pooled separate accounts are valued based on the Plans pro rata share of fund
equity as determined by the trustee, based on fair values of the underlying investments.
Investments in the mutual fund and Sirius XM Radio Inc. common stock are valued based on quoted
prices.
7
Net appreciation in fair value of investments consists of realized gains and losses and the
change in unrealized gains and losses in the Plans investments. Realized gains and losses from the
sale of investments are computed using the participants cost basis in the investment aggregated at
the Plan level. Net changes in unrealized appreciation/depreciation in investments represents the
difference between the fair value of investments held at year-end and the cost of investments
purchased in the current fiscal year or the fair value of investments held at the end of the
preceding year.
As described in FASB ASC 946, Plan AccountingDefined Contribution Pension Plans
(previously referred to as FASB Staff Position Nos. AAG INV-1 and SOP 94-4-1, Reporting of Fully
Benefit-Responsive Investment Contracts Held by Certain Investment Companies Subject to the AICPA
Investment Company Guide and Defined Contribution Health and Welfare and Pension Plans),
investment contracts held by a defined contribution plan are required to be reported at fair value.
The Guaranteed Income Fund is an Insurance Company Issued Evergreen Group Annuity issued by PRIAC.
Under the group annuity contract that supports this product, participants may ordinarily direct a
permitted withdrawal or transfer of all or a portion of their account balance at contract value,
within reasonable timeframes. Contract value represents deposits made to the contract, plus
earnings at guaranteed crediting rates, less withdrawals and fees. Interest is credited on contract
balances using the portfolio rate approach. Under this methodology, a single interest crediting
rate is applied to all contributions made to the product regardless of the timing of these
contributions. Interest crediting rates are reviewed on a semi-annual basis for resetting by the
trustee. When establishing interest crediting rates for this product, the trustee considers many
factors, including current economic and market conditions, the general interest rate environment
and both the expected and actual experience of a reference portfolio within the general account.
These rates are established without the use of a specific formula. The minimum crediting rate under
the contract of PRIAC is 1.50%. The Average Earnings Yield by the Plan and the Average Yield
Credited to participants was 3.05% for the year ended December 31, 2010. The Average Earnings
Yield is calculated by dividing the earnings credited to the participants on the last day of the
plan year by the end of plan year fair value and then annualizing the results. As a result of
current stable value product construction, no adjustments are required to mediate between the
average earnings credit to the Plan and the average earnings credited to the participants. As
required by ASC 946, the Guaranteed Income Fund is included at its carrying value in the statements
of net assets available for benefits, which approximated their fair values at December 31, 2010 and
2009. The contract value of the investment approximates the fair value, due to the nature of the
investment contracts not having a fair value adjustment upon discontinuance.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is
recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Loans Receivable from Participants
Loans receivable from participants are measured at their unpaid principal balance plus any
accrued but unpaid interest. Delinquent participant loans are reclassified as distributions based
upon the provisions of Plan document.
3. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to
transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required to be recorded at
fair value, the Plan considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact
and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability,
such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of nonperformance.
The Plan maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs
when measuring fair value. A financial instruments categorization within the fair value hierarchy
is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the following fair value
measurement.
|
|
|
Level 1: quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
|
|
|
|
Level 2: inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or
indirectly, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or
liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in |
8
|
|
|
markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be
corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of
the assets or liabilities; or
|
|
|
|
Level 3: unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market
activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or
liabilities. |
The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of
net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, the use of different
methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could
result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date. There were no changes in
methodologies used at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Investments Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Investments measured at fair value consisted of the following types of instruments as of
December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 (Level 1, 2 and 3 inputs are defined above):

The Plans valuation methodology for Level 2 assets in pooled separate accounts were
derived using a change-factor model with inputs derived from observable market data of the
underlying instruments in active markets while Level 3 assets in pooled separate accounts were
derived using a change-factor model with inputs derived from unobservable market data.
The Plans valuation methodology for the Guaranteed Income Fund was derived using inputs
derived from unobservable market data. The Guaranteed Income Fund is included at its carrying value
in the statements of net assets available for benefits, which approximated their fair values at
December 31, 2010 and 2009. The contract value of the Guaranteed Income Fund approximates the fair
value, due to the nature of the investment contract not having a fair value adjustment upon
discontinuance.
The Plans valuation methodology for mutual funds and Sirius XM Radio Inc. common stock was
derived from quoted market prices as these instruments have an active market.

5. Risks and Uncertainties
The Plan may invest in various types of investment securities. Investment securities are
exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market, and/or credit risks. Due to the level of
risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes
in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such change could
materially affect the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits.
10
The Plan may invest indirectly in securities with contractual cash flows, such as asset-backed
securities, collateralized mortgage obligations and commercial mortgage-backed securities,
including securities backed by subprime mortgage loans. The value, liquidity and related income of
these securities are sensitive to changes in economic conditions, including real estate value,
delinquencies or defaults, or both, and may be adversely affected by shifts in the markets
perception of the issuers and changes in interest rates.
The Plan provides for investment in the Companys common stock. At December 31, 2010 and
2009, approximately 29% and 13% of the Plans total net assets, respectively, were invested in the
common stock of the Company. The underlying value of the Companys common stock is dependent upon
the performance of the Company and the markets evaluation of such performance.
6. Tax Status
Effective January 1, 2009, the Plan adopted a volume submitter profit sharing plan with cash
or deferral arrangement sponsored by Thompson Hine LLP DBA Plan Document Systems which received a
favorable opinion letter from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) dated March 31, 2008, stating
that the Plan, as then designed, was acceptable under Section 401(a) of the Code and, therefore,
the related trust is exempt from taxation. The Plan has been amended since receiving that opinion
letter. On April 30, 2010, the Plan applied for a new determination letter and is waiting for a
response from the IRS. Once qualified, the Plan is required to be designed and to operate in
conformity with the Code to maintain its qualification. The Plan administrator and the Plans legal
counsel believe the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the
applicable requirements of the Code and, therefore, the Plan is qualified and the related trust is
tax exempt. Therefore, there is no provision for income taxes recorded in the Plans financial
statements.
In 2009, certain operational errors in eligible compensation for participant deferrals related
to 2009 and the former XM Plan employer matching contributions related to 2009 and prior years were
identified. The total net employer contributions and lost earnings due related to these errors was
approximately $2,034,000. The Plan Sponsor corrected the errors in July in accordance with the
guidelines outlined in Revenue Procedures 2008-50. In 2010, certain operational errors were
identified relating to eligible compensation for certain employees and the related employee salary
deferrals and employer matching contributions were not properly made during 2010. The Plan Sponsor
is currently correcting the errors and does not believe that these operational errors would affect
the Plans tax qualification status. The Plan Sponsor will bear all costs associated with the
correction of the errors.
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require Plan
management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Plan and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if
the Plan has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon
examination by the IRS. The Plan administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the plan,
and has concluded that as of December 31, 2010, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected
to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the Plans
financial statements. The IRS generally has the ability to examine Plan activity for up to three
years.
7. Plan Termination
The Company reserves the right to terminate the Plan, in whole or in part, at any time,
subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event that such termination occurs, all amounts
credited to participant accounts will become 100% vested and the trustee, in accordance with the
Plan document, will distribute the net assets of the Plan in a uniform and non-discretionary
manner.
8. Related Party Transactions
Plan investments in pooled separate accounts and Guaranteed Income Fund are managed by PRIAC,
who is the trustee as defined by the Plan. All transactions with these investments qualify as
party-in-interest. The Plan also invests in common stock of the Company.

In 2009 and 2008, there were inadvertent delays by the XM Plan (which merged into the Plan as
of March 1, 2009) in submitting certain participant contributions to the trust, which amounted to
$639,790 and $2,427,779, respectively. All delinquent contributions were remitted to the trust in
2009, with the exception of lost interest, which was paid in 2010.
