WORLDSPACE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(A) Organization

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.

(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, 2007; the results of operations, cash flows and changes in shareholders deficit
for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2006 financial statements to conform to the 2007 presentation.

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 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, 2006.

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 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 and Staff Accounting Bulletin, Topic 13A-4b.

Marketable Securities

The Company accounts for marketable securities in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities. The Company has determined that all of its investments are marketable securities to be classified as Held-to-Maturity. Held-to-Maturity securities are recorded at amortized cost. The amortized cost of debt securities is
adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity. Such amortization is included in the Interest income line item on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The cost of securities sold is based
on the specific identification method. Interest and dividends on securities classified as held-to-maturity are included in the Interest income line item on the consolidated statements of operations.

investments, defined as having initial maturities of three months or less, have been classified as cash equivalents. Cash equivalents, as of March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, 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 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 capitalized certain costs related to the development of new receiver models.

(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 $1.0 million and $3.1 million for the three month periods ending March 31, 2007 and 2006, 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
periods ending March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. 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. 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 (closed model) that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Because closed models incorporate assumptions for inputs, those inputs are disclosed. 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 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.

Warrant issued to XM

On July 18, 2005, the Company issued to XM 1,562,500 shares of Class A Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $25 million. In
connection with this transaction, the Company entered into a global satellite radio cooperation agreement on receiver technology, terrestrial repeater technology, OEM and third party distribution relationships, content opportunities and new
applications and services. In connection with this transaction, the Company also granted to XM a performance-based warrant to purchase 1,785,714 shares of Class A Common Stock. Half of the warrant shares will vest upon the Company obtaining an
operational chipset developed with substantial support from XM under the cooperation agreement. The remaining warrant shares vest upon the Companys design for deployment of a terrestrial repeater network utilizing and relying on XM software,
XM know-how in utilizing the software of others or XM support personnel under the cooperation agreement. This warrant expires on July 17, 2008.

The Company accounted for the warrant under the guidance provided by Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 96-18 (EITF 96-18), Accounting for Equity instruments that are issued to other than
employees for acquiring, or in conjunction with selling, goods or services. The Company used Black-Scholes model for calculating the fair value. The following table illustrates the major assumptions used to calculate the fair value:



|                            |  |          
|--------------------------- |  | ---------
|                            |  | 2006     
|Expected volatility         |  | 96%      
|Weighted-average volatility |  | 96%      
|Expected dividends          |  | 0%       
|Risk-free rate              |  | 5.1%     
|Expected term               |  | 3.0 years

Using the assumptions mentioned in the table above, the Company valued the warrant at
$1.9 million, which would be expensed over the term that the performance is expected to be provided, which the Company estimated to be 2.5 years starting January 1, 2006. The Company recorded an expense related to this warrant of $0 and
$625,000 for the three months ending March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. During the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006, the Company determined that due to technological differences in developing customized chip-set and terrestrial
repeater networks, the likelihood of warrants vesting to XM is not probable. As a result, the Company reversed in fiscal year December 31 2006, the $625,000 of Research and Development expense recorded earlier.

Convertible Promissory Notes

On December 31, 2004, the Restructuring Agreements were released from escrow and became effective pursuant to the Company raising $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 mature on
December 31, 2014, and are convertible into reserved Class A shares of the Companys common stock at the lesser of $13.52 per share or 90 percent of the price of an initial public offering (IPO) common share, subject to certain
adjustments as defined in the promissory note agreements. Interest payments are due quarterly beginning on March 31, 2005 or may be added to the principal balance outstanding, at the option of the Company. For the quarter ended March 31,
2007, a total interest of $2.7 million in interest expense was recorded of which $1.9 million was accrued related to this convertible debt. After three years following the effective date of the issuance of the convertible promissory notes, the
investors may require the Company to redeem the unpaid principal and accrued interest.

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 cash or 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 therefore has determined that our Notes contain an embedded
conversion feature which required bifurcation from the notes. The Company has bifurcated the fair value of the embedded derivative from the Notes Payable and included under Other Liabilities with an offset recorded as a discount to the
notes payable which would be amortized as interest expense over the remaining life of the embedded derivative feature using a straight line method. The fair value of the embedded derivative was valued on March 31, 2007 at $35,100 and would be
revalued each reporting period with the change in the fair value recorded as other income or expense in the statement of operations.

In
April 2007, the Company entered into a restructuring agreement with the holders of the $155 million Convertible Notes. The agreement calls for certain cash payments, senior secured notes, amended convertible notes and warrants at different maturity
dates. (Refer to Note M-Subsequent Events, Convertible Notes Restructuring).

Notes Payable

In June 2006, we 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, 2007,
under the terms of the loan, the Company was contingently obligated to repay the loan principal together with accrued interest.

In August
2006, we 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, 2007, 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 $1.4 million and $0 during the three months ended March 31,
2007 and 2006, respectively.

Effective January 1, 2007, we adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.

As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, our unrecognized tax benefits increased $2.9
million, which was accounted for as a decrease to retained earnings of $ 2.9 million. These items would otherwise have increased our income tax expense in prior periods.

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.

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.

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.

(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, warrants and other convertible securities were exercised or converted into common stock.

For the three month periods ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, warrants and other convertible
securities to purchase approximately 31.0 million and 32.6 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.

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.

The Company entered into an agreement with the Internal Revenue Service in
March 2007 to pay the outstanding income taxes payable of approximately $16.0 million on an installment basis. The terms of the agreement require monthly payments of $340,000 beginning April 28, 2007 through August 28, 2007. The remaining
outstanding balance of approximately $13.3 million plus any accrued interest would have to be paid by September 30, 2007.

Design and Production
Agreement

The Company is committed to purchasing 722,445 satellite radio receiver chipsets for approximately $18.2 million at
March 31, 2007. The chipsets have not been purchased as of March 31, 2007. The Company has recorded a liability of $18.2 million at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, as accrued purchase commitment in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

(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, Viatis Satellite Radio. 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, 2007 was $0.3 million and is separately classified in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets

(J) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

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. With respect to SFAS 115, available-for-sale and
held-to-maturity securities at the effective date are eligible for the fair value option at that date. If the fair value option is elected for those securities at the effective date, cumulative unrealized gains and losses at that date shall be
included in the cumulative-effect adjustment and thereafter, such securities will be accounted for as trading securities. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 159 on its results of operations and financial position.

In September 2006, The Financial Accounting and Standards Board has issues 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 companies 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 Company is currently evaluating the impact, if
any, of SFAS 157 on its results of operations and financial position.

(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 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Such indemnifiable costs are included in the accompanying
Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations under General and Administrative expenses.

(M) Subsequent events

Convertible Note Restructuring

On April 12, 2007, the Company agreed with the holders of our $155 million convertible notes on the terms of a partial redemption and exchange of the currently outstanding convertible notes (Restructuring). The Company and the note
holders have agreed to use their reasonable best efforts to finalize the documentation required for the Restructuring and to close the Restructuring not later than May 31, 2007. The Restructuring 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 convertible notes. For the redemption, the Company agreed to pay down $50 million
principal amount of the existing notes for cash. We also agreed to exchange the remaining $105 million principal amount of the existing notes for:

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



(i) senior secured notes in the aggregate principal amount of $45 million; (ii) amended and restated secured convertible notes in the principal
amount of $60 million; and (iii) the issuance of warrants to purchase 2.65 million shares of our Class A common stock. Both notes have a maturity of 3 years. 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. The amended and restated convertible notes have an interest rate of 8 percent per annum
and are convertible, at the option of the note-holders, at a price of $4.25 per share. The senior secured notes will be secured by a first priority lien on our assets and the amended and restated convertible notes will be secured by a second
priority lien on our assets. The warrants to acquire shares of our Class A common stock have an exercise price of $4.25 per share and a term of 5 years.

The Company agreed to pay all accrued and unpaid interest on the existing notes in cash and also agreed to pay, or reimburse the convertible notes holders on demand for, all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses
incurred during this restructuring process.

Securities Litigation

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 Company is planning to vigorously defend against these claims.

|(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, 2007 and 2006 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.

Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $3.0 million, a 12.5%
decrease compared with $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006. This was primarily due to a reduction in revenue from equipment sales, government services contracts and capacity leases, offset by increased revenue from
subscribers to our DARS.

Subscription revenue. Subscription revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was
approximately $1.8 million, an increase of 13.6% compared with $1.6 million generated in the three months ended March 31, 2006. This increase in subscription revenues was primarily due to the increase in our paying subscribers in India. We
lost approximately 13,000 subscribers from ROW as our contract with KIE terminated on Jan 1, 2007.

Average Monthly Subscription Revenue
Per Subscriber (ARPU).

Blended ARPU (for India and ROW) was $3.19 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and $3.93 for the
three months ended March 31, 2006. The reduction in blended ARPU for 2007 compared to 2006 resulted from the shift of the subscribers weight in India where single market ARPU is lower than other markets. ARPU from India was $2.94 for the
three months ended March 31, 2007, and $3.06 for the three months ended March 31, 2006

Equipment sales
revenue. Equipment sales revenue was approximately $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007, a decrease of 55.5% compared with $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006. This decrease was primarily
due to decreased unit sales in India. We sold approximately 28,000 receivers in the three months ended March 31, 2007, compared with approximately 52,400 receivers sold in the three months ended March 31, 2006.

Other revenue. Other revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $0.7 million, a decrease of 6.9% compared with $0.8 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2006. This decrease was primarily due to a reduction in government services revenue offset by an increase in capacity lease revenue. Other revenue primarily consists of capacity lease revenue and government
services revenue.

Capacity lease revenue. Satellite capacity leasing revenue for the three months ended
March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2006 was relatively flat at $0.4 million.

Government services
revenue. Government services revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $0.03 million, a decrease of 80.1% compared with $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006. Government services revenues
decreased as we completed the Pakistan Education Initiative (PEI) contract and a data service contract launched in Q4 2005.

Total cost of services for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $9.1 million, a
12.6% decrease compared with $10.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2006. This decrease was primarily due to decreases in the engineering and broadcast operations, and cost of equipment offset by increases in content &
programming.

Engineering and broadcast operations. Engineering and broadcast expense, including the cost of operating our two
satellites, ground control systems and telecommunications links as well as our in-orbit insurance, for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $3.4 million, a decrease of 25.5% compared with $4.4 million in the three months ended
March 31, 2006. This was primarily due to a decrease in in-orbit insurance as our policy premiums on our AfriStar and AsiaStar satellites were reduced.

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, 2007 was
$3.3 million, an increase of 69.8% compared with $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006. These expenses increased as we increased staffing levels to support the launch of live programming and additional channels
specifically for the Indian market. We also increased payments for music rights royalties due to the addition of a Bollywood content license, exclusive rights for live audio broadcast of cricket outside of India, PPL license expenses and changes in
other content royalties (IFPI, PRS London).

Customer care, billing & collection. Customer care, billing and
collections expense for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was relatively flat at $0.6 million, an increase of 5.4% compared to $0.6 for the three months ended March 31, 2006.

Cost of Equipment. Cost of equipment for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $1.8 million, a decrease of 44.4% compared with
$3.2 million, in the three months ended March 31, 2006. 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 $33 per subscriber for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and $41 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. SAC for India, was approximately $33 per subscriber for the three months ended
March 31, 2007 and approximately $42 per subscriber for the three months ended March 31, 2006.

Other cost of services. Other cost of services for the three months ended March 31, 2006
was $0.1 million, a decrease of 64.3% compared to $0.2 million the three months ended March 31, 2006, primarily due to reductions in GSU expenses as these contracts were completed. Other costs include Thompson technology fee (chipset
royalties), development & technology expenses and cost to service the government services activities.

Total operating expense for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $40.6 million, a
17.3% decrease compared with $49.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006. This decrease was primarily due to decreases in our selling and marketing, general and administrative expense and our cost of services (discussed above). Our
selling and marketing expense for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $2.5 million, a decrease of 62.0% compared with $6.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2006. This decrease was primarily due to reduction in
marketing activity as we completed launches in our key markets during 2006, and reached a sustaining level of activity. Our general and administrative expense for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $14.3 million, a decrease of 14.3%
compared with $16.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2006. This decrease was primarily due to a $2.1 million decrease in stock based compensation, a $0.9 million decrease in facilities as a result of a lease termination fee
paid in Q1 2006, offset by a $1.7 million increase in headcount expense as we increased staffing to execute on our business plan. The Company granted certain key executives restricted stock awards, in connection with our initial public offering in
August 2005, which vested over a six month period. This vesting period was extended through January 3, 2007, hence the reduction in stock option expense related to these options for this period compared to last year. The Company determined that
due to technological differences in developing customized chip-set and terrestrial repeater networks, the likelihood of warrants vesting to XM is not probable and ceased to record any additional R&D expense during the three months ended March
31, 2007. The Company earlier recorded $625,000 in research and development expense during the three months ended March 31, 2006. Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and the three months ended
March 31, 2006 remained relatively constant at $14.7 million.

Cost Per Gross Addition (CPGA)

Total blended CPGA expense (for India and ROW) was approximately $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and approximately $6.3
million for the three months ended March 31, 2006. CPGA for India was approximately $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and approximately $5.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006. Unit blended
CPGA (for India and ROW), was approximately $71 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and approximately $135 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. CPGA for India, was approximately $68 for the three months ended March 31,
2007 and approximately $128 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. CPGA declined due to a reduced marketing spend as we completed our launch in key markets.

Other income (expense)

Interest income. Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $2.4 million, a decrease of 22.2% compared with $2.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2006. This
increase was due to decreased average cash balances as we experienced operating losses.

Interest expense. Interest expense for
the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 was $2.3 million.

Other income (expense). Other expense for the three
months ended March 31, 2007 was $0.5 million compared with $0.4 million of expense recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2006.

Income
tax

During the three months ending March 31 2007, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $2.5 million compared to $16.1 million for the
three months ending March 31, 2006. This benefit is the result of current period operating losses and the establishment of a $12.2 million valuation allowance against certain intercompany transactions.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Overview

As of March 31, 2007, we had cash and cash equivalents of $29.0 million, and marketable securities of $110.0 million. Cash and cash equivalents
and marketable securities decreased $26.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2007. This decrease resulted from $24.9 million used in operating activities, $26.4 million used in investing activities, and $0.1 million provided by
financing activities. Cash flows used in operations includes the net loss of $35.5 million, and $2.3 million loss from working capital offset in part by $11.3 million in non cash expenses included in net loss. Investing activities consisted mainly
of $27.9 million in net sales of marketable securities, $0.4 million used for the purchase of property and equipment and $1.1 million used for purchase of satellite and related systems. Financing activities consisted of $0.5 million from the sale of
common stock, offset by a $0.4 million increase in restricted cash for certain lease obligations. During April 2007, the Company entered into a restructuring agreement with the holders of the $155 million Convertible Notes. The agreement calls for
certain cash payments, senior secured notes, amended convertible notes and warrants at different maturity dates. (See note KSubsequent Events, Convertible Notes Restructuring for further details).

Historical sources of cash

We raised $1.5 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.

Uses of Cash

Our cash used during the three months ended March 31, 2007, consisted primarily of funding operating expenses, and working capital.

Future Operating Liquidity and Capital Resource Requirements

Based upon our current plans, we believe that our cash, cash
equivalents and marketable securities will be sufficient to cover our estimated funding needs for at least the remainder 2007. Our financial projections are based on assumptions which we believe are reasonable but contain significant uncertainties.

We currently intend to use existing cash reserves mainly to execute our business plans and for satisfying certain terms of convertible
note restructuring (discussed in Note MSubsequent Events, Convertible Note Restructuring). We expect that the majority of our cash outflow during year 2007 would be directed towards sales and marketing activities for subscriber acquisitions,
additional content and programming development, non-operating and capital expenditures, corporate expense which includes debt restructuring cost of $3 million, interest costs of $7.2 million and cash repayment of $50 million as per terms of
convertible note restructuring referred above. In addition, if we are unable to negotiate a further payment plan with Internal Revenue Service, the Company will be required to retire its outstanding tax liability of $15 million.

Our business plan includes funding in India mainly for a moderate level of build-out of terrestrial repeater network, and continued marketing spend
towards subscriber acquisitions; for Italy, contemplates service launch and technology related expenses; for Middle East, involves minimal terrestrial repeater capital expenditures for a network in Bahrain; and for China, other Western Europe
markets and other selected markets within our coverage areas, includes limited business development expenses. We are currently reviewing our business plan for potential modifications that could result in the reduction of cash expenditures over the
next 12 months.

Our business is in its early stages, and 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 or our revenues may
fall short of our estimates, our estimates may change, and future developments may affect our estimates. Furthermore, we will require additional cash to fully launch our business in China and Western Europe and fund the cost to modify and launch our
spare satellite. A principal amount of $27.5 million of the senior secured notes we will issue as part of the convertible note restructuring will be repayable on the first anniversary of the closing date of the transaction.

Any of these factors may increase our need for funds, which would require us to seek additional financing to continue implementing our current business
plan. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in securing financing or that it will be available to us at attractive terms.

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 could be materially adversely affected. Additional financings could
also increase our level of indebtedness or result in further dilution to existing shareholders.

Under the terms of the senior secured
notes and amended and restated convertible notes we will issue as part of the convertible note restructuring, we may incur secured indebtedness of up to $105 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. 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 permitted first priority secured debt) while the
amended and restated convertible notes are outstanding.

Capital Expenditures

We have spent approximately $748 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 enhance our infrastructure with terrestrial repeaters depending on licenses and business requirement, if supported by an appropriate business model and funding of such projects. We expect to
start our terrestrial repeater network build-out in key metropolitan areas in India during 2007, assuming we obtain the necessary regulatory approvals, we currently estimate to be approximately $20 million over the next few years. This amount 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. Over the next 12 months we also
anticipate technology and terrestrial repeater development expenses associated with rolling out our services in Italy. We estimate those expenses to be approximately $20 million beginning in 2008. 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. We expect the total network in China to cost a similar amount as India in its initial stages. Our future capital expenditures will depend
on our business strategy and our response to business opportunities 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, 2007, approximately 80%
of our total revenues and 27% of total operating expenses were denominated in foreign currencies. The following table shows approximately the split of these foreign currency exposures by principal currency:
