WORLDSPACE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(A) Organization and Liquidity

WorldSpace, Inc. (WSI) was organized on July 29, 1990, and incorporated in the State of Maryland on November 5, 1990. WorldSpace, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the Company) is engaged in the design, development, construction, deployment
and financing of a satellite-based radio and data broadcasting service, which serve areas of the world where traditional broadcast media or internet services are limited. The Company, which operates in 10 countries, has one satellite in orbit over
Africa, another over Asia and a completed third satellite currently in storage. This satellite, which can be used to replace either of the Companys two operational satellites or may also be modified and launched to provide DARS in Western
Europe.

Going Concern and Liquidity

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable
future. The Company has incurred net losses of $36.8 million for the three month period ending March 31, 2008, an accumulated deficit as of March 31, 2008 of $2,531 million and expects to continue incurring losses for the foreseeable
future. The cash on hand at March 31, 2008 was $2.0 million. The cash as of March 31, 2008 consisted mainly of remaining proceeds from the issuance of the common stock through our IPO in 2005. These proceeds, net of transaction expenses,
were used to fund marketing, subscriber management, content development, capital expenditures (including the roll-out of terrestrial repeater networks), working capital needs to support the growth of its subscriber base in India and provide
developmental funding in Western Europe, and other additional markets. As such, the Company must raise substantial additional capital during 2008 in order to continue its current level of operations and to pursue its business plan. Based upon our
current plans, we estimate that our cash and cash equivalents will not be sufficient to cover our estimated funding needs for 2008. With a view to increasing future operating liquidity and augment its capital resources, the Company is currently in
discussions to raise additional funds to meet our needs.

As can be seen from our statement of cash flows, we borrowed $19.2 million
from Yenura under our current financing agreement with them and used these proceeds to make payments on our senior secured notes of $9.8 million and used $10 million for operations. Because of our current liquidity situation we have not been able to
make and have had to delay payments to some of our critical vendors, including our in-orbit insurance and certain payroll amounts. During the first quarter of 2008 our payable increased by $8 million and has continued to increase since March 31,
2008.

In December 2007, the Company entered into an agreement for $40 million financing facility (Refer to Note DDebt, Yenura
Financing). Through the three month period ending March 31, 2008, the Company has drawn $19.2 million on this facility. However, it has not secured any additional commitments for new financing at this time nor can it provide any assurance that
new financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. If the Company is unable to secure additional capital, it will be required to curtail its operations and if these measures fail, it may not be able to continue its
business. Curtailment of operations would cause significant delays in the Companys efforts to introduce its products to market which is critical to the realization of its business plan and the future operations of the Company.

The Company is also subject to certain business risks associated with operating a satellite-based broadcasting company including, but not limited to,
in-orbit failures, regulatory compliance, and additional challenges such as developing successful satellite receiver and subscription sales programs adequate to fund operations, developing program content acceptable to and desired by its target
audiences and assuring the availability of appropriate levels of satellite radio receivers. There can be no assurances as to when, or if, the Company will be successful in meeting these challenges, some of which are not under its control.

WORLDSPACE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not give effect to any adjustments to record
amounts and their classifications, which would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore, be required to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at
amounts different from those reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

(B) Principles of Consolidation, Significant Accounting Policies and
Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of WorldSpace, Inc. and its majority and
wholly-owned controlled subsidiaries. The equity method of accounting is used to account for investments in enterprises over which the Company has significant influence, but of which it has less than 50 percent ownership. All significant
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The balance sheet and operating results of our foreign
operations are consolidated using the local currencies of the countries in which they are located as the functional currency. The balance sheet accounts are translated at exchange rates in effect at the end of the period, and income statement
accounts are translated at average exchange rates during the period. The resulting translation gains and losses are included as a separate component of stockholders equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in our
income statement in the period in which they occur.

In the Companys opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring entries, necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position of WorldSpace, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of March 31, 2008; the results of
operations, cash flows and changes in shareholders deficit for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007.

These financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included
in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from the Companys principal activities, subscription audio services and capacity leasing, is recognized as the services are provided.
Revenue from subscribers, which is generally billed in advance, consists of fixed charges for service, which are recognized as the service is provided, and non-refundable activation fees are recognized ratably over 30 months, the estimated term of
the subscriber relationship. Direct activation costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising revenue is recognized in the period in which the spot announcement is broadcast. Revenue from the sale of satellite radio receivers is recognized when the
product is shipped. Promotions and discounts are treated as an offset to revenue during the period of promotion. Sales incentives, consisting of discounts to subscribers, offset earned revenue. The Companys current policy is not to accept
product returns, but if in the future, the Company were to accept product returns that are not covered under the manufacturers warranty, a sales return allowance will be established based on the guidance provided under Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 48. Revenue Recognition When a Right of Return Exists.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

All liquid investments, defined as having initial maturities of three months or less, have been classified as cash equivalents. Cash
equivalents, as of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, consisted primarily of demand deposits and money market instruments. Cash balances in individual banks exceed insurable amounts.

Restricted Cash and Investments

Cash and investments that are deposited with a lessor or committed to support letters-of-credit issued pursuant to lease agreements and other banking
arrangements, have been classified as restricted cash and investments in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value using the first in, first out (FIFO) method of accounting. Inventories
primarily consist of satellite radio receivers manufactured to the Companys specifications by independent third parties. Provisions have been recognized to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their estimated net realizable value. The
Company periodically evaluates inventory levels on hand as to potential obsolescence based on current and future selling prices and anticipated future sales. The Company has established a reserve for obsolescence of $4.8 million and $
3.7 million as at March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

(C) Stock-Based Compensation

In accordance with SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share Based Payment (SFAS No. 123R) and the Securities and Exchange
Commissions rule amending the compliance dates of SFAS No. 123R, the Company began to recognize compensation expense for equity-based compensation using the fair value method in 2006 using the Modified Prospective Method. This
method allows the Company to apply the fair value provisions of SFAS No. 123R only on the future share-based payment arrangements and unvested portion of prior awards at the adoption date.

The Company has a stock-based employee compensation plan which is described below. The compensation cost charged against income under the plan was $1.4
million and $1.0 million for the three month periods ending March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. In accordance with SFAS No. 123R, the Company will not recognize a deferred tax asset with respect to excess stock compensation deductions
until those deductions actually reduce our tax liabilities. As such, the total income tax benefit recognized in the income statement for share-based compensation arrangements was $0 for the three month period ending March 31, 2008. At such time
the Company utilizes these net operating losses to reduce income taxes payable, the tax benefit will be recorded as an increase in additional paid-in-capital.

2005 Incentive Award Plan

On July 7, 2005, the Companys shareholders approved the
2005 Incentive Award Plan (The Plan). The Plan provides for the grant of up to 5,625,000 shares of our Class A Common Stock for stock based awards to employees, consultants and directors of the Company and its subsidiaries and
affiliates. On May 25, 2007, the Companys shareholders approved an increase in the number of shares of Class A Common Stock available for grant under the Plan to 12,625,000 shares. The Company granted employees restricted stock
awards and stock options under this plan. The stock award program offers employees the opportunity to earn shares of our stock over time, rather than options that give employees the right to buy stock at a pre-determined price. Option awards are
generally granted with an exercise price of the Companys stock at the date of grant; those option awards generally vest based on 3 years of continuous service and have 10-year contractual terms.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using Black-Scholes option pricing model that uses the assumptions noted in the
following table. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of the stock price of similar entities, for a period not less than the required service period, since the

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



Company does not have a historical volatility equal to the required service period. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and employee
termination within the valuation model based on the employees career level, historical exercise behavior and other factors for valuation purposes. The expected term of options and other awards granted is derived from the guidance provided
under Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (SAB 107) Share Based Payment and represents the period of time that stock based awards are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual
life of the awards is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. No options were granted in the first quarter of 2008.

Stock Appreciation Rights (SARS)

On April 9, 2007, the Company granted 2,764,200 units of stock appreciation rights (SARS) to employees and directors of the Company under
the Plan. For the three month period ending March 31, 2008, of the $ 1.4 million stock based compensation recorded in income statement, $0.5 million related to SARS. These SARS vest equally over a period of three years from the grant date
and have a weighted-average grant date fair value per unit of $2.48. The SARS can only be net-share settled.

Summary of option
activity:

Summary of the status of the Companys stock option awards and units including SARS as of January 1, 2008 and
changes during the three month period ending March 31, 2008 is presented below:

Convertible Promissory Notes Restructuring

In December 2004, the Company raised $142 million ($155 million, less $13 million in issuance costs) by issuing $155 million of 5 percent
convertible promissory notes to several investors. The convertible promissory notes were due to mature on December 31, 2014, and were convertible into reserved Class A shares of the Companys common stock at $13.52 per share, subject
to certain adjustments as defined in the promissory note agreements. Interest payments were due quarterly beginning on March 31, 2005.

On June 1, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with the holders of our $155 million convertible notes to affect a partial redemption and exchange of the currently outstanding convertible notes (Restructuring). The Restructuring
agreement has two elements: cash redemption of part of the principal amount of the convertible notes; and issuance of new notes (senior secured and convertible) and warrants in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the new notes. The Company repaid
$50 million principal amount of the existing notes for cash and exchanged the remaining $105 million principal amount of the existing notes for:



| | (i) | Senior secured notes in the aggregate principal amount of $45 million, with a maturity of 3 years secured by a first priority lien on the Companys assets. The senior secured
notes accrue interest at the rate of London Inter Bank Offering Rate (LIBOR) plus 650 basis points per year and have a mandatory principal repayment of $27.5 million on the first anniversary of the closing date of the transaction. The
senior secured notes also require mandatory principal repayment out of the net proceeds of any debt or equity financing, certain excess cash flow, or sale of assets or casualty loss, subject to customary exceptions. In December 2007, the Company
entered into a facility agreement with Yenura Pte Ltd (see Yenura financing) for a $40 million credit facility. A provision under these secured senior notes required us to pay down the entire outstanding principal of these notes using the proceeds
from any subsequent debt or equity transaction. As a result, we obtained agreement from the holders of these secured senior notes to pay down portion of the outstanding balance and accrued interest totaling $10 million. This amount was paid on
January 31, 2008. The senior secured notes are carried at cost on the condensed consolidated balance sheets which approximates fair market value.

| | (ii) | Amended and restated secured convertible notes in the principal amount of $60 million, with a maturity of three years secured by a second priority lien on the Companys assets.
The amended and restated convertible notes have an interest rate of 8 percent per annum and are convertible into 14.1 million shares of our Class A common stock, at the option of the note-holders, at a price of $4.25 per share. Under the
terms of agreement, the Company has right to redeem all the outstanding convertible notes at any time after the second anniversary (eligibility date) if the weighted average price of shares of Class A Common Stock exceeds 200% of conversion
price on the commitment date for ten consecutive trading days following the eligibility date at price which is thirty days after its delivery of a mandatory redemption notice to the holders of secured convertible notes. The Company is also required
to reserve out of its authorized and unissued shares of Class A Common Stock a number of shares equal to 120% of outstanding convertible notes from time to time necessary to effect the conversion. The secured convertible notes are carried at
cost on the condensed consolidated balance sheets which approximates fair market value.

| | (iii) | The issuance of warrants to purchase 2.65 million shares of our Class A common stock, with an exercise price of $4.25 per share. The warrants are fully
vested and exercisable immediately. The warrants expire five years from the date of issuance. The warrants were valued under Black-Scholes methodology as of the grant date. The Company computed fair value of $2.65 per warrant for a total of
approximately $7 million. This amount will be amortized over a period of three years corresponding to terms of convertibility of secured and convertible notes as a discount on long-term debt. The following assumptions were used to determine the fair
value of warrants using the Black-Scholes valuation model: a term of five years, risk-free rate of 4.67%, volatility of 84%, and dividend yield of zero. The Company recognized $0.9 million of this discount during the three month period ended
March 31, 2008

| | as additional interest expense in the financial statements. In accordance with EITF No. 00-27, Application of EITF 98-5: Accounting for
Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Adjustable Conversion Ratios, the value assigned to Notes and the Warrants were allocated based on their relative fair values. The value of Warrants was recorded as
additional paid-in-capital and reduced the carrying value of the Notes. The Company did not record any value towards beneficial conversion feature in accordance with EITF 98-5, since the fair market value of the common stock was less than the
conversion price as on the commitment date.
| | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Company accounted for the restructuring of these notes as debt
extinguishment in accordance with EITF 96-16 Debtors Accounting for Modification or Exchange of Debt Instrustments. We recorded a loss of $1.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2007, which represents the
difference between the fair value and carrying value of the restructured notes. The loss will be amortized over the life of the restructured notes of three years. As of March 31, 2008, the unamortized balance on the loss is $1.04 million.
Additionally, we also capitalized approximately $4.3 million in costs, primarily legal and investment advisor fees, associate with this transaction. These costs are amortized over the term of the notes of three years. As of March 31, 2008, the
unamortized balance on these deferred financing costs is $3.1 million. The unamortized deferred financing costs of $ 11.5 million associated with the old notes were written off.

The Company evaluates the provisions of the Notes periodically to determine whether any provisions would be considered embedded derivatives that would
require bifurcation under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 133). Since the shares of common stock underlying the Notes have
been registered during the year ending December 31, 2006, they are readily convertible to shares of our Class A Common Stock. The registration with the SEC of the shares of common stock underlying the convertible notes payable satisfied
the provisions for net settlement under SFAS No. 133. The Company has determined that even though our Notes do contain an embedded conversion feature, the Notes however are both indexed to the Companys own stock and classified in
stockholders equity in its financial statements and therefore under SFAS No. 133 are not considered for derivative accounting treatment.

Under the registration rights agreement, the Company has agreed to use its best efforts to file a registration statement for the resale of the 120% of Common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. FSP EITF 00-19-2, Accounting for
Registration Payment Arrangements, requires the registration payment arrangements to be accounted for as a contingent liability. Since the Company complied with terms of the registration rights agreement by filing on July 31, 2007 the
agreements with the Securities and Exchange Commission, accounting for a contingent liability was not required.

Yenura Financing

On December 31, 2007, the Company entered into a facility agreement with Yenura Pte Ltd. (Yenura) (Refer to Note L Related-Party Transactions) in
which Yenura agreed to make available up to $40 million from time to time pursuant to draw down notices issued on or prior to January 31, 2008, in consideration for the issuance of certain subordinated convertible notes. The subordinated
convertible notes mature on January 3, 2013 and accrue interest at the rate of 8% per year and shall be payable in arrears with the first interest date being January 15, 2009. The convertible notes shall be convertible at the option
of the note holders into shares of Class A Common Stock, provided, however, that they will first be convertible upon the earliest to occur of the following (i) January 15, 2009, (ii) an event of default and (iii) the first
public announcement of a proposed change of control (as such terms are defined in the convertible notes). The conversion amount shall be calculated as the portion of the principal drawdown plus any accrued and unpaid interest and late charges. The
conversion rate will be $4.25 per share. As of March 31, 2008, the Company has drawn $19.2 million on this facility. Subsequent to March 31, 2008, the Company drew down an additional $7.0 million under the facility. The convertible notes
issuable in connection with these draw downs, if converted would result in the issuance of approximately 1.6 million shares to Yenura. The Yenura unsecured convertible notes are carried at cost on the condensed consolidated balance sheets which
approximates fair market value.

Notes Payable

In June 2006, the Company received $200,000 from the Montgomery County of the State of Maryland under the Economic Development Fund as a contingent loan. This loan could be converted into a grant if the Company
maintains a specified number of employees on a particular maturity date and is in compliance with certain other terms of the agreement. The loan has a 5% annual interest rate. At March 31, 2008, under the terms of the loan, the Company was
contingently obligated to repay the loan principal together with accrued interest.

In August 2006, the Company received $200,000 from the
Department of Business and Economic Development of the State of Maryland as a contingent loan. This loan could be converted into a grant if the Company maintains a specified number of employees on a particular maturity date and is in compliance with
certain other terms of the agreement. The loan has a 3% annual interest rate. At March 31, 2008, under the terms of the loan, the Company was contingently obligated to repay the loan principal together with accrued interest.

(E) Provision for Income Taxes

The Company accounts
for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial
statements or income tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates for the year in
which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the sum of taxes payable for the period and the change
during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Our tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of our
annual effective tax rate. The 2007 effective tax rate is estimated to be lower than the 35% statutory rate primarily due to anticipated earnings and losses of our subsidiaries outside of the U.S. in jurisdictions where our effective tax rate is
lower than in the U.S. and the establishment of a valuation allowance against a portion of the US losses. Cash paid for income taxes was $0 and $1.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. FIN 48 contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 109. The first step is to evaluate the tax position
for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to
measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. We consider many factors when evaluating and estimating our tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic
adjustments and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the Company recognized approximately $2.9 million increase in the unrecognized tax benefits, which was accounted for as a reduction to
the January 1, 2007, balance of retained earnings. We are required to review our FIN 48 contingencies on a quarterly basis and make adjustments if the facts change or our professional judgment of the outcome of the item changes.

We recognize interest and penalties related to our unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. We have included $84,000 for estimated penalties and
interest in foreign jurisdictions on the unrecognized tax benefit related to cross-border transactions.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



We file U.S. federal income tax returns as well as income tax returns in various states and foreign
jurisdictions. We may be subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for calendar years 1998 through 2006. Tax years 1998 through 2003 are open due to the cancellation of debt and tax attribute reduction reported on the
2004 tax return. We currently are not under examination in any of the jurisdictions in which we file income tax returns.

(F) Net Loss Per Share

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin
No. 98 (SAB 98). Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of outstanding shares of common stock. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of
shares adjusted for the potential dilution that could occur if stock options, SARS, warrants and other convertible securities were exercised or converted into common stock.

For the three month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, options, SARS, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, warrants and other
convertible securities to purchase approximately 33.9 million and 31.0 million shares of common stock, respectively, were outstanding, but not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, because the effect would be
anti-dilutive.

(G) Commitments and Contingencies

Leases

The Company leases office space under non-cancelable operating leases that expire through 2016. As of
March 31, 2008 minimum annual rental commitments under these leases are:

Litigation, Claims and Income Taxes

The Company is subject to various claims and assessments. In the opinion of management, these matters will not have a material adverse impact on the
Companys financial position or results of operations. In evaluating the exposure associated with various tax filing positions, the Company accrues charges for probable exposures. Based on annual evaluations of tax positions, the Company
believes it has appropriately accrued for probable exposures.

In April and May 2007, securities class action litigation suits were filed
in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, on behalf of persons who purchased or otherwise acquired the Companys publicly traded securities. The lawsuits were filed against the Company, Noah A. Samara, President
and Chief

Executive Officer; Sridhar Ganesan, Chief Financial Officer; Cowen & Co. LLC, and UBS Securities LLC (Defendants). The complaints (all
similar) allege violations of Sections 11, 12(a)2, and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933. The suits claim that certain customers were incorrectly counted as subscribers after they had ceased to be paying subscribers. The complaints have been
consolidated and on August 9, 2007, an amended complaint was filed on behalf of all the plaintiffs. The Company is planning to vigorously defend against these claims.

Design and Production Agreement

The Company is committed to purchasing 722,445 satellite radio
receiver chipsets for approximately $18.2 million at March 31, 2008. The chipsets have not been purchased as of March 31, 2008. The Company has recorded a liability of $18.2 million at March 31, 2008, as accrued purchase
commitment in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

(H) Contingent Royalty Obligation

Effective December 31, 2004, the Company restructured $1,553 million of notes payable and advances. Under the terms of the agreements, the ongoing
obligations of the Company to the lender were set forth in a separate Royalty Arrangement (Royalty Agreement), under which the Company is required to pay the lender 10 percent of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, if
any, for each year through 2015 in exchange for the lender releasing all claims. The Company is subject to certain covenants regarding the disposition of assets, liquidation of the Company, reporting, and distributions or payments to certain current
shareholders. The Royalty Agreement also requires the Company to have a segregated reserve, to be funded each quarter in any year in which payment under the Royalty Agreement is projected, at the rate of 25 percent of the estimated annual payment.
In addition, 80 percent of the annual payment is required to be made within 60 days after year-end, and the remaining portion within 180 days following year-end. Even though management is satisfied that the debt may not be reinstated, in accordance
with SFAS No. 15, Accounting by Debtors and Creditors for Trouble Debt Restructuring,the debt restructuring is not considered an extinguishment of debt because the future payments under the agreement are indeterminate. Accordingly, the
carrying value of the debt and accrued interest of $1,814 million is shown as a contingent royalty obligation on the accompanying balance sheets.

(I)
Minority Interest

The Companys Italian subsidiary, WorldSpace Italia S.r.l., is a majority-owned subsidiary of the Companys
European holding company, WorldSpace Europe SAS. WorldSpace Italias other partner is New Satellite Radio S.r.l., an Italian company whose primary shareholder is Class Editori S.p.A., a media and broadcast corporation based in Milan. New
Satellite Radio holds a 35 percent interest in WorldSpace Italia S.r.l., and has contributed $0.9 million towards capital investment. The net outstanding minority interest of New Satellite Radio S.r.l., as of March 31, 2008 was $0.6 million and
is separately classified in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets

(J) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, The Financial Accounting and Standards Board had issued FAS 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157), which
provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The standard also responds to investors requests for more information about the extent to which companys measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the
information used to measure fair value and the effect that fair-value measurements have on earnings. SFAS 157 will apply whenever another standard requires (or permits) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. The standard does not expand
the use of fair value to any new

circumstances. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within
those fiscal years. The FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, delays for one year the effective date of Statement 157 for certain nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities.

Those assets and liabilities measured at fair value under SFAS 157 for the period ended March 31, 2008 did not have a material impact
on our consolidated financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this statement (related to nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities).

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilitiesincluding an
amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. This statement permits, but does not require, entities to measure many financial instruments at fair value. The objective is to provide entities with an opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported
earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. Entities electing this option will apply it when the entity first recognizes an eligible instrument and will report
unrealized gains and losses on such instruments in current earnings. This statement 1) applies to all entities, 2) specifies certain election dates, 3) can be applied on an instrument-by-instrument basis with some exceptions, 4) is irrevocable
and 5) applies only to entire instruments. The adoption of SFAS 159 had no impact on the financial statements as the Company did not elect the fair value option for any other financial instruments or certain other assets and liabilities.

(L) Related Party Transactions

In March 2007, the Company agreed to indemnify the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, Noah A. Samara, for personal legal expenses associated with certain matters arising by reason of the fact that
Mr. Samara was an officer and/or director of the Company. Total costs agreed to be reimbursed by the Company were $650,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2007. Such indemnifiable costs are included in the accompanying Unaudited
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations under General and Administrative expenses.

In December 2007, the Company secured a $40
million financing facility from Yenura Pte. Ltd., a company controlled by Noah Samara, chairman and CEO of WorldSpace. Yenura is a special purpose entity established by Mr. Samara and Mr. Salah Idris to invest in WorldSpace.
Mr. Samara holds all of the voting shares in Yenura. Mr. Idris, through his ownership of non-voting shares holds the major economic interest in Yenura. The Company did not draw funds on this facility in 2007 but has drawn $19.2 million
through March 31, 2008. Subsequent to March 31, 2008, the Company drew down an additional $7.0 million under the facility. The convertible notes issuable in connection with these draw downs, if converted would result in the issuance of
approximately 1.6 million shares to Yenura. Refer to Note D-Debt, Yenura financing for further discussion.

(M) Subsequent events

As disclosed in Note D Debt, Yenura financing, the Company has drawn $7.0 million since April 1, 2008, from its financing facility with Yenura
through May 15, 2008.

of OperationsThree months ended March 31, 2008 compared with Three months ended March 31, 2007Operating expense.

|(4) | EBITDAWe refer to net loss before interest income, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization as EBITDA. EBITDA is not a measure of financial
performance under generally accepted accounting principles. We believe EBITDA is often a useful measure of a companys operating performance and is a significant basis used by our management to measure the operating performance of our business.
Because we have funded and completed the build-out of our system through the raising and expenditure of large amounts of capital, our results of operations reflect significant charges for depreciation, amortization and interest expense. EBITDA,
which excludes this information, provides helpful information about the operating performance of our business, apart from the expenses associated with our physical plant or capital structure. EBITDA is frequently used as one of the bases for
comparing businesses in our industry, although our measure of EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. EBITDA does not purport to represent operating loss or cash flow from operating activities, as those terms
are defined under generally accepted accounting principles and should not be considered as an alternative to those measurements as an indicator of our performance.

|* | SAC (ROW) for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 was negative, indicating a positive margin from the sale of equipment and therefore was denoted with a zero value
whereas Indias SAC represents negative margins resulting from its costs exceeding its revenues.

three months ended March 31, 2007.

Subscription revenue. Subscription revenue for the three months ended March 31,
2008 was approximately $1.7 million, a decrease of 4.7% compared with $1.8 million generated in the three months ended March 31, 2007. This decrease in subscription revenues was primarily due to the decrease in our paying subscribers in
India.

Blended ARPU (for India and ROW) was $3.36 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and $3.19 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The
increase in blended ARPU for 2008 compared to 2007 resulted mainly from foreign currency effects. ARPU from India was $3.06 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, and $2.94 for the three months ended March 31, 2007.

Equipment sales revenue. Equipment sales revenue was approximately $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, a
decrease of 29.4% compared with $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. This decrease was primarily due to decreased unit sales in India. We sold approximately 6,800 receivers in the three months ended March 31, 2008,
compared with approximately 28,000 receivers sold in the three months ended March 31, 2007.

Other revenue. Other revenue for
the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $1.0 million, an increase of 30.0% compared with $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. This increase was primarily due to increase in capacity lease service to existing
customer. Other revenue primarily consists of capacity lease revenue and government services revenue.

##### Table of Contents

Total cost of services for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $7.2 million, a 20.9%
decrease compared with $9.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2007. This decrease was primarily due to decreases in content and programming and cost of equipment. Engineering and broadcast operations, customer care, billing and
collection and other cost of services are relatively constant for the three months ended Mach 31, 2008 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2008.

Content and programming. Content and programming expense, which includes content production, music royalties and other content acquisition costs, for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was
$2.4 million, a decrease of 26.2% compared with $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The decrease in expenses is directly related to ESPN, a contract with exclusive rights for live audio broadcast of cricket outside of
India that ended in 2007.

Cost of Equipment. Cost of equipment for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was
$0.6 million, a decrease of 67.7% compared with $1.8 million, in the three months ended March 31, 2007. Cost of equipment decreased due to a decreased number of receivers being sold in India.

Subscriber Acquisition Cost (SAC)

Total blended SAC (for India and ROW) calculated based on unit sales to our distributors, was approximately $28 per subscriber for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and $33 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. SAC for
India, was approximately $30 per subscriber for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and approximately $33 per subscriber for the three months ended March 31, 2007.

Total operating expense for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $36.4 million, a
10.3% decrease compared with $40.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. This decrease was primarily due to decreases in cost of services (discussed above), selling and marketing and general and administrative expense offset by an
increase in research and development. Our selling and marketing expense for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $1.7 million, a decrease of 33.8% compared with $2.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2007. This decrease
was primarily due to reduction in marketing activity in India. Our general and administrative expense for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $10.3 million, a decrease of 27.9% compared with $14.3 million in the three months ended
March 31, 2007. This decrease was primarily due to decreases in bonus compensation of $1.4 million, payroll and related taxes and benefits of $0.8 million, travel and entertainment costs of $0.5 million and professional and legal fees of $1.6
million, offset by increases of approximately $0.4 million in various general and administrative categories such as equipment, bad debts and insurance. Our increase in research and development expense is due to an increase in receiver product
development activities. Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and the three months ended March 31, 2007 remained relatively constant.

Cost Per Gross Addition (CPGA)

Total blended CPGA expense (for India and ROW) was approximately $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and approximately $2.1
million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. CPGA for India was approximately $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and approximately $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. Unit blended
CPGA (for India and ROW), was approximately $70 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and approximately $71 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. CPGA for India, was approximately $72 for the three months ended March 31, 2008
and approximately $68 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. CPGA declined due to a reduced marketing spend.

Other income (expense)

Interest income. Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $0.2 million, a decrease of 91.7%
compared with $2.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2007. This decrease was due to decreased average cash balances as we continue to fund operating losses.

Interest expense. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $3.5 million, an increase of 30.7% compared with
$2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. This increase was primarily due to the restructuring agreement that was completed on September 1, 2007 and the Yenura financing facility which was completed on December 31, 2007,
which carried higher interest rates. See Note D  Debt of the notes to the financial statements for further discussion.

Other
income (expense). Other income for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $0.1 million compared with $0.1 million of expense recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2007, as a result of the effect of foreign currency
fluctuations for the periods.

Income tax

During the
three months ending March 31, 2008, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $0.3 million compared to an income tax benefit of $2.5 million for the three months ending March 31, 2007. This expense and prior year benefit is the result
of current period operating losses and the establishment of a valuation allowance against certain intercompany transactions.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL
RESOURCES

Overview

As of
March 31, 2008, we had cash and cash equivalents of $2.0 million. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $1.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2008. This decrease resulted from $10.1 million used in operating activities,
$1.1 million used in investing activities, and $9.4 million provided by financing activities. Cash flows used in operations includes the net loss of $36.8 million, and $8.4 million provided from working capital and $18.3 million in non cash expenses
included in net loss. Investing activities consisted mainly of $0.3 million used for the purchase of property and equipment, $1.6 million used for purchase of terrestrial repeater and uplink equipment and a $0.8 million decrease in restricted cash.
Financing activities consisted of proceeds of $19.2 million from the Yenura financing facility, offset by a payment of $9.8 million on the senior secured notes. The net effect of foreign currency rate changes on cash and cash equivalents was $0.2
million.

Historical sources of cash

We raised $1.7 billion of equity and debt net proceeds from inception through August 3, 2006 from investors and strategic partners to fund our operations.

IPO

On August 3, 2006, we agreed to sell 11,500,000 shares of common stock at a price to the public of $21.00 per share in our initial public offering. The aggregate gross proceeds to us from the public offering were approximately
$241.5 million. We incurred expenses of approximately $20.5 million of which approximately $16.9 million represented underwriting discounts and commissions and approximately $3.6 million represented expenses related to the offering. Net proceeds to
us from the offering were $221.0 million.

XM Investment

On July 18, 2006, we issued XM Satellite Radio 1,562,500 shares of Class A common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $25 million. The net proceeds after deducting expenses were $22.5 million.

Yenura Financing

In December 2007,
the Company entered into a facility agreement with Yenura Pte Ltd. (Yenura) in which Yenura agreed to make available up to $40 million from time to time pursuant to draw down notices issued on or prior to January 31, 2008, in consideration for
the issuance of certain subordinated convertible notes. Due to Yenuras slow action in making the full committed amount available, the Company has not yet been fully able to draw down on the facility. During the first quarter 2008, the Company
drew $19.2 million under this facility. As disclosed in Note D Debt, Yenura financing, the Company has drawn an additional $7.0 million from this financing facility from April 1, 2008 through May, 2008.

The subordinated convertible notes issuable under this Yenura facility mature on January 3, 2013 and accrue interest at the rate of 8% per year
and shall be payable in arrears with the first interest date being January 15, 2009. Yenura is a company controlled by Noah Samara, chairman and CEO of Worldspace (refer to Note LRelated-Party Transaction to the financial statements
for further discussion).

Uses of Cash

Our cash used during the three months ended March 31, 2008, consisted primarily of funding operating expenses, and working capital.

Future Operating Liquidity and Capital Resource Requirements

Normal operating and capital expenditures and debt repayment
during the three month period ending March 31, 2008 amounted to approximately $21.7 million, leaving the Company with total cash and cash equivalents of about $ 2.0 million and restricted cash and investments of about $5.6 million at
March 31, 2008. As described in Note B of our interim financial information, the Company has cash with a lessor and financial institutions to support letters of credit pursuant to lease agreements and other banking arrangements. We do not have
ready access to use our restricted cash for operations.

On January 31, 2008 a principal amount of $9.8 million plus interest was paid
to the holders of our senior secured notes and $17.7 million plus interest of the senior secured notes that was issued as part of the convertible note restructuring will be repayable on May 31, 2008.

Under the terms of the senior secured notes and amended and restated convertible notes we issued as part of the convertible note restructuring, we may
incur secured indebtedness of up to $75 million (less any amounts outstanding under the senior secured notes) of senior secured first priority indebtedness. We may borrow up to $100 million (less any amounts outstanding under the amended and
restated convertible notes) of senior secured second priority indebtedness which is pari passu with the amended and restated convertible notes and unlimited unsecured debt, as long as such debt has a maturity date that is at least 91 days after the
maturity date of the

##### Table of Contents

amended and restated convertible notes and total cash, interest and fees payable on such indebtedness do not exceed 12% per annum. We may not borrow senior
indebtedness or second priority indebtedness from Yenura or any of its affiliates. We will be required to repay any outstanding principal of the senior secured notes from new equity or debt financing, certain excess cash flow or the cash proceeds of
asset sales and casualty events, subject to customary exceptions. We are not permitted to make any mandatory or optional prepayment on debt, (other than previously discussed under the Yenura financing agreement) while the amended and restated
convertible notes are outstanding.

In December 2007, the Company entered into a facility agreement with Yenura Pte Ltd. (Yenura) in which
Yenura agreed to make available up to $40 million from time to time pursuant to draw down notices issued on or prior to January 31, 2008, in consideration for the issuance of certain subordinated convertible notes. Due to Yenuras slow
action in making the full committed amount available, the Company continues to draw down on the facility. During the first quarter 2008, the Company has drawn $19.2 million under this facility. As disclosed in Note D Debt, Yenura financing, the
Company has drawn an additional $7.0 million from this financing facility from April 1, 2008 through May, 2008.

The convertible notes
issuable under the Yenura facility are convertible at the option of the note holders into shares of Class A Common Stock, provided, however, that they will first be convertible upon the earliest to occur of the following
(i) January 15, 2009, (ii) an event of default and (iii) the first public announcement of a proposed change of control (as such terms are defined in the convertible notes). The conversion amount shall be calculated as the portion
of the principal drawdown plus any accrued and unpaid interest and late charges. The conversion rate is $4.25 per share.

The focus of our
execution includes continuing to build towards the launch of mobile services in Italy and the Middle East. Subject to available funds, we contemplate funding business development and technology related expenses geared towards a service launch in
Italy and the Middle East in early 2009; minimal technology-related and other expenditures for a service launch in India and Bahrain, and with respect to other European markets and other selected markets within our coverage areas, limited business
development expenses.

Based upon our current plans, our cash and cash equivalents will not be sufficient to cover our estimated funding
needs for 2008. We will require significant additional financing in 2008 to continue implementing our current business plan. The Company has not secured any commitment for new financing at this time nor can it provide any assurance that new
financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. If the Company is unable to secure additional capital, it will be required to curtail its operations, and if these measures fail, it may not be able to continue its business.

Our ability to obtain the financing in the future will depend on several factors, including future market conditions; our success in
developing, implementing and marketing our satellite radio service; our future creditworthiness; and restrictions contained in agreements with our investors or lenders. If we fail to obtain any necessary financing on a timely basis or on attractive
terms, our results of operations would be materially adversely affected. Additional financings will increase our level of indebtedness and/or result in further dilution to existing shareholders.

We regularly evaluate our plans and strategy. These evaluations may result in changes to our plans and strategy, some of which may be material and
significantly change our cash requirement. Our business plan is based on estimates regarding expected future costs and expected revenue. Our costs may exceed our revenues, may fall short of our estimates, our estimates may change, and future
developments may affect our estimates.

Capital Expenditures

We have spent approximately $749 million on capital expenditures related to the development and launch of our satellites, for our ground systems and for property and equipment. We may spend additional amounts to

##### Table of Contents

enhance our infrastructure with terrestrial repeaters depending on licenses and business requirement, if supported by an appropriate business model and
funding of such projects. Over the next 12 months, we anticipate technology, terrestrial repeater network installation expenses, chip-set and receiver development expenses and studio facility build-out expenses associated with rolling out our
services in Italy. We estimate those expenses to be approximately $60 million beginning in 2008. We expect to start our terrestrial repeater network build-out in key metropolitan areas in India in 2009, assuming we obtain the necessary regulatory
approvals. We currently estimate those costs to be approximately $20 million over the next few years. These amounts will need to be reviewed as we conduct actual testing, including further topographical analysis. We also expect to start our
terrestrial repeater build out in Bahrain; however we do not expect this cost to be significant. Until we receive the final approvals from Chinas regulatory agencies, we will not start the build-out of a terrestrial repeater network in China.
Our future capital expenditures will depend on our business strategy and our response to business opportunities including receipt of additional licenses and trends in our industry and our markets.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Foreign Currency

As a global company, we are exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from normal business operations. These risks include the translation of local
currency balances of our foreign subsidiaries, intercompany balances between subsidiaries that operate in different functional currencies and transactions with customers, suppliers and employees that are denominated in foreign currencies. Our
objective is to minimize our exposure to these risks through our normal operating activities and, where appropriate, to have these transactions denominated in United States dollars. For the three months ended March 31, 2008, approximately 74%
of our total revenues and 23% of total operating expenses were denominated in foreign currencies. The following table shows approximately the split of these foreign currency exposures by principal currency:



|                                                                                  |  |                                            |   |  |             |   |  |                |   |  |                    |   |  |    |   |  |     |

For the three months ended March 31, 2007, approximately 80% of our total revenues and 27% of
our total operating expenses were denominated in foreign currencies.

Interest Rates

Our market risk from changes in interest rates is not material since the Companys debt includes $45 million of the Senior Secured Notes which accrue
interest at the London Inter Bank Offering Rate (LIBOR) plus 650 basis points per year and the amended and restated Convertible Notes which have a fixed interest rate. For the period January 1, 2008 through February 29, 2008 the LIBOR was
5.12% which decreased in March 2008 to 3.08%.

We classify our investments in money market funds as cash equivalents. We currently do not
hedge either foreign exchange or interest rate exposures, but do not believe that an increase in interest rates would have a material effect on the value of our cash equivalents or the convertible notes.

As of March 31, 2008, we had $2.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and $5.6 million in restricted cash and investments.

designed to ensure that information related to the Company is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis. The Company has established a Disclosure Committee that is responsible for accumulating potentially material information
regarding the Companys activities and considering the materiality of this information. The Disclosure Committee is also responsible for making recommendations regarding disclosure and communicating this information to our Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Companys Disclosure Committee comprises our senior legal official, chief financial officer, chief operating officer, chief accounting officer,
head of internal audit and certain other members of the Companys finance department.

Evaluation of the Companys disclosure
controls and procedures. An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of
the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as required by Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over
Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over
financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls. Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer, believes that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting are effective at the reasonable assurance level. However, our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and
procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control
system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and
instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be
circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future
events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with
policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

securities. The lawsuits were filed against the Company, Noah A. Samara, President and Chief Executive Officer; Sridhar Ganesan, Chief Financial Officer; Cowen & Co. LLC, and UBS Securities LLC (Defendants). The complaints (all
