<table style="border-collapse:collapse; text-align: left" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"> <tr> <td width="4%" valign="top" align="left">(1)</td> <td align="left" valign="top">Business </td> </tr> </table> We broadcast our music, sports, entertainment, comedy, talk, news, traffic and weather channels in the United States on a subscription fee basis through two proprietary satellite radio systems. Subscribers can also receive certain of our music and other channels over the Internet, including through applications for mobile devices. We have agreements with every major automaker (“OEMs”) to offer satellite radios as factory- or dealer-installed equipment in their vehicles. We also distribute our satellite radios through retail locations nationwide and through our website. Satellite radio services are also offered to customers of certain daily rental car companies. 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 subscription plans, as well as discounts for multiple subscriptions on each platform. We also derive revenue from activation and other subscription-related 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 new and pre-owned 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.

<table style="border-collapse:collapse; text-align: left" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"> <tr> <td width="4%" valign="top" align="left">(2)</td> <td align="left" valign="top">Summary of Significant Accounting Policies </td> </tr> </table> Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Sirius XM Radio Inc. and subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Basis of Presentation In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 have been made. We have evaluated events subsequent to the balance sheet date and prior to the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 and have determined no events have occurred that would require adjustment to or disclosure in our consolidated financial statements. Reclassifications Certain amounts in our prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to our current period presentation. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes. 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 consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition, asset impairment, depreciable lives of our satellites, share-based payment expense, and valuation allowances against deferred tax assets. Economic conditions in the United States could have a material impact on our accounting estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, money market funds, in-transit credit card receipts and highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased. Equity Method Investments We hold an equity method investment in Sirius XM Canada. Investments in which we have the ability to exercise significant influence but not control are accounted for pursuant to the equity method of accounting. We recognize our proportionate share of earnings or losses of our affiliates as they occur as a component of Other income (expense) in our consolidated statements of operations. The difference between our investment and our share of the fair value of the underlying net assets of our affiliates is first allocated to either finite-lived intangibles or indefinite-lived intangibles and the balance is attributed to goodwill. We follow ASC 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (“ASC 350”), which requires that equity method finite-lived intangibles be amortized over their estimated useful life while indefinite-lived intangibles and goodwill are not amortized. The amortization of equity method finite-lived intangible assets is recorded in Interest and investment income in our consolidated statements of operations. We periodically evaluate our equity method investments to determine if there has been an other than temporary decline below carrying value. Equity method finite-lived intangibles, indefinite-lived intangibles and goodwill are included in the carrying amount of the investment. Property and Equipment Property and equipment, including satellites, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Equipment under capital leases is stated at the present value of minimum lease payments. Depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight-line method over the following estimated depreciable lives:     <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="92%" border="0" style="border-collapse:collapse; text-align: left" align="center">  <tr> <td width="51%"> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="3%"> </td> <td width="46%"> </td> </tr>   <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="bottom"> Satellite system </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">2 - 15 years</td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom"> Terrestrial repeater network </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">5 - 15 years</td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="bottom"> Broadcast studio equipment </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">3 - 15 years</td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom"> Capitalized software and hardware </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">3 - 7 years</td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="bottom"> Satellite telemetry, tracking and control facilities </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">3 - 15 years</td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom"> Furniture, fixtures, equipment and other </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">2 - 7 years</td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="bottom"> Building </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">20 or 30 years</td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom"> Leasehold improvements </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">Lesser of useful life or remaining lease term</td> </tr>  </table> We review long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, and purchased intangibles subject to amortization for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the asset.   Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in business combinations. Our annual impairment assessment of our single reporting unit is performed as of October 1 st of each year, and an assessment is performed at other times if events or circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. Step one of the impairment assessment compares the fair value of the entity to its carrying value and if the fair value exceeds its carrying value, goodwill is not impaired. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, the implied fair value of goodwill is compared to the carrying value of goodwill. If the implied fair value exceeds the carrying value then goodwill is not impaired; otherwise, an impairment loss will be recorded by the amount the carrying value exceeds the implied fair value. We did not record any impairments in 2011, 2010 or 2009. The impairment test for other intangible assets not subject to amortization consists of a comparison of the fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying value. This test is performed as of October 1 st of each year, and an assessment is performed at other times if events or circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. Our indefinite life intangibles include FCC licenses and trademark. If the carrying value of the intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. We use independent appraisals to assist in determining the fair value of our FCC licenses and trademark. The income approach, which is commonly called the “Jefferson Pilot Method” or the “Greenfield Method”, has been consistently used to estimate the fair value of our FCC licenses. This method attempts to isolate the income that is properly attributable to the license alone (that is, apart from tangible and intangible assets and goodwill). It is based upon modeling a hypothetical “Greenfield” build-up to a normalized enterprise that, by design, lacks inherent goodwill and has essentially purchased (or added) all other assets as part of the build-up process. The methodology assumes that, rather than acquiring such an operation as a going concern, the buyer would hypothetically obtain a license at nominal cost and build a new operation with similar attributes from inception. The significant assumption was that the hypothetical start up entity would begin its network build out phase at the impairment testing date and revenues and variable costs would not be generated until the satellite network was operational, approximately five years from inception. The “Relief from Royalty” method valuation approach was utilized to value our trademark. This methodology involves the estimation of an amount of hypothetical royalty income that could be generated if the asset was licensed to an independent, third-party owner. The value of the intangible is the present value of the prospective stream of hypothetical royalty income that would be generated over the useful life of the asset. We did not record any impairments in 2011, 2010 or 2009. Other intangible assets with finite lives consists primarily of customer relationships acquired in business combinations, licensing agreements, and certain IT related costs. These assets are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment under the provisions of ASC 360-10-35, Property, Plant and Equipment/Overall/Subsequent Measurement. We review intangible assets subject to amortization for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected cash flows, undiscounted and without interest, is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. We did not record any impairments in 2011, 2010 or 2009. Revenue Recognition We derive revenue primarily from subscribers, advertising and direct sales of merchandise. Revenue from subscribers consists of subscription fees; revenue derived from our agreements with daily rental fleet programs; and non-refundable activation and other fees. Revenue is recognized as it is realized or realizable and earned. We recognize subscription fees as our services are provided.   At the time of sale, vehicle owners purchasing or leasing a vehicle with a subscription to our service typically receive between a three and twelve month prepaid subscription. Prepaid subscription fees received from certain automakers are recorded as deferred revenue and amortized to revenue ratably over the service period which commences upon retail sale and activation. Activation fees are recognized ratably over the estimated term of a subscriber relationship, estimated to be approximately 3.5 years during 2011, 2010 and 2009. The estimated term of a subscriber relationship is based on historical experience. We recognize revenue from the sale of advertising as the advertising is broadcast. Agency fees are calculated based on a stated percentage applied to gross billing revenue for our advertising inventory and are reported as a reduction of Advertising revenue. We pay certain third parties a percentage of Advertising revenue. Advertising revenue is recorded gross of such revenue share payments as we are the primary obligor in the transaction. Advertising revenue share payments are recorded to Revenue share and royalties during the period in which the advertising is broadcast. Equipment revenue and royalties from the sale of satellite radios, components and accessories are recognized upon shipment, net of discounts and rebates. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are recorded as revenue. Shipping and handling costs associated with shipping goods to customers are reported as a component of Cost of equipment. ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, provides guidance on how and when to recognize revenues for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. Revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables are required to be divided into separate units of accounting if the deliverables in the arrangement meet certain criteria. Arrangement consideration must be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables based on their relative selling price, which has been determined using vendor specific objective evidence of selling price of self-pay customers. Revenue Share We share a portion of the subscription revenues earned from subscribers with certain automakers. The terms of the revenue share agreements vary with each automaker, but are typically based upon the earned audio revenue as reported or gross billed audio revenue. Revenue share is recorded as an expense in our consolidated statement of operations and not as a reduction to revenue. Programming Costs Programming costs which are for a specified number of events are amortized on an event-by-event basis; programming costs which are for a specified season or period are amortized over the season or period on a straight-line basis. We allocate a portion of certain programming costs which are related to sponsorship and marketing activities to Sales and marketing expenses on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreement. Advertising Costs Media is expensed when aired and advertising production costs are expensed as incurred. Market development funds consist of fixed and variable payments to reimburse retailers for the cost of advertising and other product awareness activities. Fixed market development funds are expensed over the periods specified in the applicable agreement; variable costs are expensed when aired and production costs are expensed as incurred. During the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, we recorded advertising costs of $116,694, $110,050 and $128,784, respectively. These costs are reflected in Sales and marketing expense in our consolidated statements of operations.   Subscriber Acquisition Costs Subscriber acquisition costs consist of costs incurred to acquire new subscribers and include hardware subsidies paid to radio manufacturers, distributors and automakers, including subsidies paid to automakers who include a satellite 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; device royalties for certain radios; commissions paid to retailers and automakers as incentives to purchase, install and activate radios; product warranty obligations; and provisions for inventory allowance. Subscriber acquisition costs do not include advertising, loyalty payments to distributors and dealers of radios and revenue share payments to automakers and retailers of radios. Subsidies paid to radio manufacturers and automakers are expensed upon installation, shipment, receipt of product or activation and are included in Subscriber acquisition costs because we are responsible for providing the service to the customers. Commissions paid to retailers and automakers are expensed upon either the sale or activation of radios. Chip sets that are shipped to radio manufacturers and held on consignment are recorded as inventory and expensed as Subscriber acquisition costs when placed into production by radio manufacturers. Costs for chip sets not held on consignment are expensed as Subscriber acquisition costs when the automaker confirms receipt. We record product warranty obligations in accordance with ASC 460, Guarantees, which requires a guarantor to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken by issuing the guarantee. We warrant that certain products sold through our retail and direct to consumer distribution channels will perform in all material respects in accordance with specifications in effect at the time of the purchase of the products by the customer. The product warranty period on our products is 90 days from the purchase date for repair or replacement of components and/or products that contain defects of material or workmanship. We record a liability for costs that we expect to incur under our warranty obligations when the product is shipped from the manufacturer. Factors affecting the warranty liability include the number of units sold and historical and anticipated rates of claims and costs per claim. We periodically assess the adequacy of our warranty liability based on changes in these factors. Research & Development Costs Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and primarily include the cost of new product development, chip set design, software development and engineering. During the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, we recorded research and development costs of $48,574, $40,043 and $38,852, respectively. These costs are reported as a component of Engineering, design and development expense in our consolidated statements of operations. Share-Based Compensation We account for equity instruments granted to employees in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation. ASC 718 requires all share-based compensation payments to be recognized in the financial statements based on fair value. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from initial estimates. We use the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model to value stock option awards and have elected to treat awards with graded vesting as a single award. Share-based compensation expense is recognized ratably over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period, net of forfeitures. We measure non-vested stock awards using the fair market value of restricted shares of common stock on the day the award is granted. Fair value as determined using Black-Scholes-Merton model varies based on assumptions used for the expected life, expected stock price volatility and risk-free interest rates. In 2011, we estimate fair value of awards granted using the hybrid approach for volatility, which weights observable historical volatility and implied volatility of qualifying actively traded options on our common stock. In 2010 and 2009, due to the lack of qualifying actively traded options on our common stock, we utilized a 100% weighting to observable historical volatility. The expected life assumption represents the weighted-average period stock-based awards are expected to remain outstanding. These expected life assumptions are established through a review of historical exercise behavior of stock-based award grants with similar vesting periods. Where historical patterns do not exist, contractual terms are used. The risk-free interest rate represents the daily treasury yield curve rate at the grant date based on the closing market bid yields on actively traded U.S. treasury securities in the over-the-counter market for the expected term. Our assumptions may change in future periods. Equity instruments granted to non-employees are accounted for in accordance with ASC 505, Equity. The final measurement date for the fair value of equity instruments with performance criteria is the date that each performance commitment for such equity instrument is satisfied or there is a significant disincentive for non-performance. Stock-based awards granted to employees, non-employees and members of our board of directors include warrants, stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units. Income Taxes Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences related to temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for tax purposes at each year-end, based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. A valuation allowance is recognized when, based on the weight of all available evidence, it is considered more likely than not that all, or some portion, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Income tax expense is the sum of current income tax plus the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. ASC 740, Income Taxes, requires a company to first determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position will be sustained based on its technical merits as of the reporting date, assuming that taxing authorities will examine the position and have full knowledge of all relevant information. A tax position that meets this more-likely-than-not threshold is then measured and recognized at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely to be realized upon effective settlement with a taxing authority. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. We record interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense in our consolidated statement of operations. We report revenues net of any tax assessed by a governmental authority that is both imposed on, and concurrent with, a specific revenue-producing transaction between a seller and a customer in our consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, we maintained a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets due to our prior history of pre-tax losses and uncertainty about the timing of and ability to generate taxable income in the future and our assessment that the realization of the deferred tax assets did meet the “more likely than not” criterion under ASC 740. 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 December 31, 2011 and 2010, the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and other receivables, and accounts payable approximated fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.   ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, establishes a fair value hierarchy for input into valuation techniques as follows: i) Level 1 input — unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical instrument; ii) Level 2 input — observable market data for the same or similar instrument but not Level 1; and iii) Level 3 input — unobservable inputs developed using management’s assumptions about the inputs used for pricing the asset or liability. We use Level 3 inputs to fair value the 8% convertible unsecured subordinated debentures issued by Sirius XM Canada. This investment is not material to our consolidated results of operations or financial position. Investments are periodically reviewed for impairment and a write down is recorded whenever declines in fair value below carrying value are determined to be other than temporary. In making this determination, we consider, among other factors, the severity and duration of the decline as well as the likelihood of a recovery within a reasonable timeframe. The fair value for publicly traded instruments is determined using quoted market prices while the fair value for non-publicly traded instruments is based upon estimates from a market maker and brokerage firm. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the carrying value of our debt was $3,013,974 and $3,217,578, respectively; and the fair value approximated $3,506,546 and $3,722,905, respectively. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (Topic 820) — Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2011-04”), to provide a consistent definition of fair value and ensure that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments are not expected to have a significant impact on companies that apply U.S. GAAP. This standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and will be applied prospectively. The impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2011-04 will not be material to our consolidated financial statements. In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) — Presentation of Comprehensive Income (“ASU 2011-05”), to require an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity. The standard does not change the items which must be reported in other comprehensive income, how such items are measured or when they must be reclassified to net income. This standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and will be applied retrospectively. The FASB has deferred the requirement to present reclassification adjustments for each component of accumulated other comprehensive income in both net income and other comprehensive income. Companies are required to either present amounts reclassified out of other comprehensive income on the face of the financial statements or disclose those amounts in the notes to the financial statements. During the deferral period, there is no requirement to separately present or disclose the reclassification adjustments into net income. The effective date of this deferral will be consistent with the effective date of the ASU 2011-05. ASU 2011-05 affects financial statement presentation only and will have no impact on our results of consolidated financial statements.

Diluted net income (loss) per common share adjusts the weighted average common shares outstanding for the potential dilution that could occur if common stock equivalents (convertible debt and preferred stock, warrants, stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units) were exercised or converted into common stock, calculated using the treasury stock method. For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, common stock equivalents of approximately 419,752,000 and 689,922,000, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per common share as the effect would have been anti-dilutive. Due to the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2009, common stock equivalents of approximately 3,381,905,000 were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per common share as the effect would have been anti-dilutive.     <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="92%" border="0" style="border-collapse:collapse; text-align: left" align="center">  <tr> <td width="61%"> </td> <td

The renewal and extension of our licenses is reasonably certain at minimal cost, which is expensed as incurred. Each of the FCC licenses authorizes 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 December 31, 2011, there were no legal, regulatory or contractual limitations associated with the XM trademark. Our annual impairment assessment of our indefinite intangible assets is performed as of October 1st of each year. An assessment is made at other times if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the assets have been impaired. At October 1, 2011 and 2010, the fair value of our indefinite intangible assets substantially exceeded its carrying value and therefore was not at risk of impairment. Subsequent to our annual evaluation of the carrying value of goodwill, there were no events or circumstances that triggered the need for an interim evaluation for impairment. Definite Life Intangible Assets 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 intangible assets include certain licensing agreements, which are amortized over a weighted average useful life of 9.1 years on a straight-line basis. Amortization expense for all definite life intangible assets was $59,050, $66,324 and $76,587 for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Expected amortization expense for each of the fiscal years through December 31, 2016 and for periods thereafter is as follows:     <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="92%" border="0" style="border-collapse:collapse; text-align: left" align="center">  <tr> <td width="88%"> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="5%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom" nowrap="nowrap"> Year ending December 31, </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">Amount</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> </tr>   <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> 2012 </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">53,680</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> 2013 </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">47,357</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> 2014 </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">38,879</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> 2015 </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">37,553</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> 2016 </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">31,959</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Thereafter </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">30,556</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr style="font-size:1px"> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Total definite life intangibles assets, net </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">239,984</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr style="font-size:1px"> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> </tr>  </table>

Space Systems/Loral has constructed another satellite (FM-6) for use in this system. In 2010, we recorded an other than temporary impairment charge of $56,100 to Restructuring, impairments, and related costs in our consolidated statement of operations for FM-4, a ground spare satellite held in storage since 2002. We determined that the probability of launching FM-4 was remote due to the launch of XM-5 in 2010. We own five orbiting satellites for use in the XM system. Four of these satellites were manufactured by Boeing Satellite Systems International and one was manufactured by Space Systems/Loral. During the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, we capitalized expenditures, including interest, of $81,189 and $223,928, respectively, related to the construction of our FM-6 and XM-5 satellites and related launch vehicles.

American Honda’s use of our bandwidth must be in compliance with applicable laws, must not compete or adversely interfere with our business, and must meet our quality standards. This agreement remains in effect so long as American Honda holds a certain amount of its investment in us. We make incentive payments to American Honda for each purchaser of a Honda or Acura vehicle that becomes a self-paying subscriber and we share with American Honda a portion of the subscriber revenue attributable to Honda and Acura vehicles with installed satellite radios. We recorded the following total related party revenue from GM and American Honda, primarily consisting of subscriber revenue, in connection with the agreements above:     <table cellspacing="0"

(12)    Investments Auction Rate Certificates Auction rate certificates are long-term securities structured to reset their coupon rates by means of an auction. We accounted for our investment in auction rate certificates as available-for-sale securities. In January 2010, our investment in the auction rate certificates was called by the issuer at par plus accrued interest, or $9,456, resulting in a gain of $425 in the year ended December 31, 2010. Long Term Restricted Investments Restricted investments relate to reimbursement obligations under letters of credit issued for the benefit of lessors of office space. As of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, our Long-term restricted investments were $3,973 and $3,396, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2011, $250 of obligations relating to these letters of credit were terminated and a new letter of credit agreement was entered into for $826 for additional space.

The 9.75% Notes and related guarantees are secured by first-priority liens on substantially all of our assets and the assets of the guarantors. (d) 11.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2013 In June 2009, we issued $525,750 aggregate principal amount of 11.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2013 (the “11.25% Notes”). The 11.25% Notes were issued for $488,398, resulting in an aggregate original issuance discount of $37,352. In October 2010, we purchased $489,065 in aggregate principal amount of the 11.25% Notes. The aggregate purchase price for the 11.25% Notes was $567,927. We recorded an aggregate loss on extinguishment of the 11.25% Notes of $85,216, consisting primarily of unamortized discount, deferred financing fees and repayment premium to Loss on extinguishment of debt and credit facilities, net, in our 2010 consolidated statements of operations. The remainder of the 11.25% Notes of $36,685 was purchased in January 2011 for an aggregate purchase price of $40,376. A loss from extinguishment of debt of $4,915 associated with this purchase was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2011. (e) 13% Senior Notes due 2013 In July 2008, we issued $778,500 aggregate principal amount of 13% Senior Notes due 2013 (the “13% Notes”). Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year at a rate of 13% per annum. The 13% Notes mature on August 1, 2013. Substantially all of our domestic wholly-owned subsidiaries guarantee our obligations under the 13% Notes. (f) 7% Exchangeable Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 In August 2008, we issued $550,000 aggregate principal amount of 7% Exchangeable Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 (the “Exchangeable Notes”). The Exchangeable Notes are senior subordinated obligations and rank junior in right of payment to our existing and future senior debt and equally in right of payment with our existing and future senior subordinated debt. Substantially all of our domestic wholly-owned subsidiaries have guaranteed the Exchangeable Notes on a senior subordinated basis. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year at a rate of 7% per annum. The Exchangeable Notes mature on December 1, 2014. The Exchangeable Notes are exchangeable at any time at the option of the holder into shares of our common stock at an initial exchange rate of 533.3333 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Exchangeable Notes, which is equivalent to an approximate exchange price of $1.875 per share of common stock. (g) 7.625% Senior Notes due 2018 In October 2010, we issued $700,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.625% Senior Notes due 2018 (the “7.625% Senior Notes”). Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year at a rate of 7.625% per annum. A majority of the net proceeds were used to purchase $489,065 aggregate principal amount of the 11.25% Notes. The 7.625% Senior Notes mature on November 1, 2018. Substantially all of our domestic wholly-owned subsidiaries guarantee our obligations under the 7.625% Senior Notes.   Covenants and Restrictions Our debt generally requires compliance with certain covenants that restrict our ability to, among other things, (i) incur additional indebtedness unless our consolidated leverage ratio would be no greater than 6.00 to 1.00 after the incurrence of the indebtedness, (ii) incur liens, (iii) pay dividends or make certain other restricted payments, investments or acquisitions, (iv) enter into certain transactions with affiliates, (v) merge or consolidate with another person, (vi) sell, assign, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets, and (vii) make voluntary prepayments of certain debt, in each case subject to exceptions. Under our debt agreements, the following generally constitute an event of default: (i) a default in the payment of interest; (ii) a default in the payment of principal; (iii) failure to comply with covenants; (iv) failure to pay other indebtedness after final maturity or acceleration of other indebtedness exceeding a specified amount; (v) certain events of bankruptcy; (vi) a judgment for payment of money exceeding a specified aggregate amount; and (vii) voidance of subsidiary guarantees, subject to grace periods where applicable. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, our debt could become immediately due and payable. At December 31, 2011, we were in compliance with our debt covenants.

(14)    Stockholders’ Equity Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share We were authorized to issue up to 9,000,000,000 shares of common stock as of December 31, 2011 and 2010. There were 3,753,201,929 and 3,933,195,112 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. As of December 31, 2011, approximately 3,342,818,000 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance in connection with outstanding convertible debt, preferred stock, warrants, incentive stock awards and common stock to be granted to third parties upon satisfaction of performance targets. To facilitate the offering of the Exchangeable Notes, we entered into share lending agreements with Morgan Stanley Capital Services Inc. (“MS”) and UBS AG London Branch (“UBS”) in July 2008, under which we loaned MS and UBS an aggregate of 262,400,000 shares of our common stock in exchange for a fee of $0.001 per share. During the third quarter of 2009, MS returned to us 60,000,000 shares of our common stock borrowed. In October 2011, MS and UBS returned the remaining 202,400,000 shares loaned. The returned shares were retired upon receipt and removed from outstanding common stock. The share lending agreements have been terminated. The shares we loaned to the share borrowers were issued and outstanding for corporate law purposes through October 2011, and holders of borrowed shares (other than the share borrowers) had the same rights under those shares as holders of any of our other outstanding common shares. Under GAAP, the borrowed shares were not considered outstanding for the purpose of computing and reporting our net income (loss) per common share. We recorded interest expense related to the amortization of the costs associated with the share-lending arrangement and other issuance costs of $11,189, $10,095 and $9,248, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009. As of December 31, 2011, the unamortized balance of the debt issuance costs was $40,054, with $39,253 recorded in deferred financing fees, net, and $801 recorded in long-term related party assets. As of December 31, 2010, the unamortized balance of the debt issuance costs was $51,243, with $50,218 recorded in deferred financing fees, net, and $1,025 recorded in long-term related party assets. As of December 31, 2010, the estimated fair value of the outstanding 202,400,000 loaned shares was approximately $329,912. These costs will continue to be amortized until the debt is terminated.   In January 2004, Sirius signed a seven-year agreement with a sports programming provider which expired in February 2011. 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 were subject to transfer restrictions which lapsed over time. We recognized share-based payment expense associated with these shares of $1,568, $5,852, and $5,852 in the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. As of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, there was $0 and $1,568 remaining balance of common stock value included in other current assets, respectively. Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share We were authorized to issue up to 50,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock as of December 31, 2011 and 2010. There were no shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”) issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. There were 12,500,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2011 and 2010. 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 approximately 40% of our outstanding shares of common stock (after giving effect to such conversion). As the holder 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 such shares of Series B Preferred Stock are 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 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. In 2009, we accounted for the issuance of Series B Preferred Stock by recording a $227,716 increase to additional paid-in-capital for the amount of the 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. There were no shares of Preferred Stock, Series C Junior (the “Series C Junior Preferred Stock”), issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2011 and 2010. In 2009, our board of directors created and reserved for issuance in accordance with the Rights Plan (as described below) 9,000 shares of the Series C Junior Preferred Stock. The shares of Series C Junior Preferred Stock are not redeemable and rank, with respect to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets, junior to all other series of our preferred stock, unless the terms of such series shall so provide. The Rights Plan expired on August 1, 2011. Warrants We have issued warrants to purchase shares of common stock in connection with distribution, programming and satellite purchase agreements and certain debt issuances. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010 approximately 22,506,000 and 42,421,000 warrants to acquire an equal number of shares of common stock were outstanding and fully vested. These warrants expire at various times through 2015. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the weighted average exercise price of outstanding warrants was $2.63 and $2.66 per share, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2011, 3,415,000 warrants expired. We incurred warrant related expense of $2,522 for the year ended December 31, 2009. We did not incur warrant related expenses in 2011 or 2010.       <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="92%" border="0" style="border-collapse:collapse; text-align: left" align="center">  <tr>

basis, resulting in the issuance of 7,122,951 shares of our common stock. Rights Plan In April 2009, our board of directors adopted a rights plan. The terms of the rights and the rights plan are set forth in a Rights Agreement dated as of April 29, 2009 (the “Rights Plan”). The Rights Plan was intended to act as a deterrent to any person or group acquiring 4.9% or more of our outstanding common stock (assuming for purposes of this calculation that all of our outstanding convertible preferred stock was converted into common stock) without the approval of our board of directors. The Rights Plan expired on August 1, 2011.

(15)    Benefits Plans We recognized share-based payment expense of $51,622, $54,585, and $65,607 for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. We did not realize any income tax benefits from share-based benefits plans during the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 as a result of the full valuation allowance that is maintained for substantially all net deferred tax assets. 2009 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan In May 2009, our stockholders approved the Sirius XM Radio Inc. 2009 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (the “2009 Plan”). Employees, consultants and members of our board of directors are eligible to receive awards under the 2009 Plan. The 2009 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 2009 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 December 31, 2011, approximately 197,606,000 shares of common stock were available for future grants under the 2009 Plan. Other Plans We maintain four other share-based benefit plans — the XM 2007 Stock Incentive Plan, the Amended and Restated Sirius Satellite Radio 2003 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan, the XM 1998 Shares Award Plan and the XM Talent Option Plan. No further awards may be made under these plans. Outstanding awards under these plans continue to vest.   The following table summarizes the weighted-average assumptions used to compute the fair value of options granted to employees and members of our board of directors:     <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="92%" border="0" style="border-collapse:collapse; text-align: left" align="center">  <tr> <td width="81%"> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="5%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="4%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="4%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="10" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">For the Years Ended December 31,</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">2011</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">2010</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">2009</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> </tr>   <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Risk-free interest rate </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">1.1</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">% </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">1.7</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">% </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">2.5</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">% </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Expected life of options — years </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">5.27</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">5.28</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">4.68</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Expected stock price volatility </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">68</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">% </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">85</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">% </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">88</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">% </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Expected dividend yield </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">0</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">% </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">0</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">% </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">0</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">% </td> </tr>  </table> The following table summarizes the range of assumptions used to compute the fair value of options granted to third parties, other than non-employee members of our board of directors:     <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="92%" border="0" style="border-collapse:collapse; text-align: left" align="center">  <tr> <td width="80%"> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="13%"> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">For the Year Ended December 31,</td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">2009</td> </tr>   <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Risk-free interest rate </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="center">0.67-2.69%</td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Expected life — years </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="center">2.33-6.19</td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Expected stock price volatility </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="center">83-130%</td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Expected dividend yield </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="center">0%</td> </tr>  </table> There were no options granted to third parties, other than non-employee members of our board of directors, during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. In 2011, we estimated fair value of awards granted using the hybrid approach for volatility, which weights observable historical volatility and implied volatility of qualifying actively traded options on our common stock. In 2010 and 2009, due to the lack of qualifying actively traded options on our common stock, we utilized a 100% weighting to observable historical volatility.   The following table summarizes stock

The total unrecognized compensation costs at December 31, 2011 are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of three years. 401(k) Savings Plan We sponsor the Sirius XM Radio 401(k) Savings Plan (the “Sirius XM Plan”) for eligible employees. The Sirius XM Plan allows eligible employees to voluntarily contribute from 1% to 50% of their pre-tax eligible earnings, subject to certain defined limits. We match 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. Employer matching contributions under the Sirius XM Plan vest at a rate of 33 1/3 % for each year of employment and are fully vested after three years of employment for all current and future contributions. Share-based payment expense resulting from the matching contribution to the Sirius XM Plan was $3,041, $2,356 and $2,895 for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. We may also elect to contribute to the profit sharing portion of the Sirius XM Plan based upon the total eligible compensation of eligible participants. These additional contributions in the form of shares of common stock are determined by the compensation committee of our board of directors. 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 did not contribute to the profit sharing portion of the Sirius XM Plan in 2011, 2010 or 2009.

</table> The difference in the net deferred tax liability of $878,357 and $869,850 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, is primarily the result of the amortization of our FCC licenses which are amortized over 15 years for tax purposes but not amortized for book purposes. This net deferred tax liability cannot be offset against our deferred tax assets under GAAP since it relates to indefinite-lived assets and is not anticipated to reverse in the same period. As a result of the Merger, we have had several ownership changes under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, which may limit our ability to utilize tax deductions. Internal Revenue Code Section 382 imposes substantial restrictions on the utilization of net operating losses and tax credits in the event of a corporation’s ownership change. Currently, our ownership changes do not limit our ability to utilize future tax deductions and so no adjustments were made to gross deferred tax assets as a result of the Merger. As of December 31, 2011, we had NOL carryforwards of approximately $7,844,000 for federal and state income tax purposes available to offset future taxable income. These NOL carryforwards expire on various dates beginning in 2014 and ending in 2028.   The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences can be carried forward under tax law. Management’s evaluation of the realizability of deferred tax assets considers both positive and negative evidence, including historical financial performance, scheduled reversal of deferred tax assets and liabilities, projected taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. The weight given to the potential effects of positive and negative evidence is based on the extent to which it can be objectively verified. We will not release the valuation allowance until giving consideration to a variety of factors including but not limited to: (a) the current period realization of NOL carryforwards, (b) three-year cumulative pre-tax income, (c) the current period taxable income and (d) the expectation of future earnings. After weighting this evidence, management concluded that it is more likely than not that our deferred tax assets will not be realized, accordingly, a full valuation allowance was retained at December 31, 2011. There is no U.S. federal income tax provision as all federal taxable income was offset by utilizing U.S NOL carryforwards. The state tax provision is primarily related to taxable income in certain states that have suspended the ability to use NOL carryforwards. The foreign income tax provision is primarily related to foreign withholding taxes related to royalty income between us and our Canadian affiliate. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the gross liability for income taxes associated with uncertain state tax positions, including interest, was $1,524 and $942, respectively, in other long-term liabilities. No penalties have been accrued for. We do not currently anticipate that our existing reserves related to uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2011 will significantly increase or decrease during the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2012; however, various events could cause our current expectations to change in the future. Should our position with respect to the majority of these uncertain tax positions be upheld, the effect would be recorded in our consolidated statements of operations as part of the income tax provision. Our policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on uncertain tax positions as part of income tax expense.

principal payments on outstanding debt and capital lease obligations. 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 a satellite and related launch vehicle for use in our systems. Programming and content.    We have entered into various programming agreements. Under the terms of these agreements, our obligations 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 incentive payments.    Boeing Satellite Systems International, Inc., the manufacturer of four of XM’s in-orbit satellites, may be entitled to future in-orbit performance payments with respect to two of XM’s satellites. As of December 31, 2011, we have accrued $27,925 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. Space Systems/Loral, may be entitled to future in-orbit performance payments. As of December 31, 2011, we have accrued $10,709 and $21,450 related to contingent performance payments for FM-5 and XM-5, respectively, based on expected operating performance over their 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, including reasonably assured renewal periods. Total rent recognized in connection with leases for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 was $34,143, $36,652 and $44,374, respectively. 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 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 variable cost provisions. We do not have any other significant off-balance sheet financing 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 In the ordinary course of business, we are a defendant in various lawsuits and arbitration proceedings, including derivative actions; actions filed by subscribers, both on behalf of themselves and on a class action basis; former employees; parties to contracts or leases; and owners of patents, trademarks, copyrights or other intellectual property. Our significant legal proceedings are discussed under Item 3, Legal Proceedings, in Part I of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (Topic 820) — Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2011-04”), to provide a consistent definition of fair value and ensure that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments are not expected to have a significant impact on companies that apply U.S. GAAP. This standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and will be applied prospectively. The impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2011-04 will not be material to our consolidated financial statements. In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) — Presentation of Comprehensive Income (“ASU 2011-05”), to require an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity. The standard does not change the items which must be reported in other comprehensive income, how such items are measured or when they must be reclassified to net income. This standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and will be applied retrospectively. The FASB has deferred the requirement to present reclassification adjustments for each component of accumulated other comprehensive income in both net income and other comprehensive income. Companies are required to either present amounts reclassified out of other comprehensive income on the face of the financial statements or disclose those amounts in the notes to the financial statements. During the deferral period, there is no requirement to separately present or disclose the reclassification adjustments into net income. The effective date of this deferral will be consistent with the effective date of the ASU 2011-05. ASU 2011-05 affects financial statement presentation only and will have no impact on our results of consolidated financial statements.
