3. TERM:

(a) Unless earlier terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the “Term” of this Agreement shall commence as of the date hereof and shall expire twelve (12) years from the Commencement Date.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, upon the occurrence of certain events, one or both Parties shall have the rights set forth below to trigger a renegotiation of certain terms of, or be excused from certain obligations under, this Agreement as follows:

(i) Distributor-Triggered Renegotiation. Distributor shall be relieved from its exclusivity obligations set forth in Section 2(a) if four (4) years following the Commencement Date, or if across any successive two (2)-year period during the Term thereafter, XM’s share of mobile aftermarket SDARS subscribers is less than forty percent (40%)

- 10 -

assuming only two (2) mobile aftermarket SDARS providers and less than thirty-three percent (33%) assuming that there are three (3) mobile aftermarket SDARS providers. XM’s share of mobile aftermarket SDARS subscribers shall be based on a mutually agreed upon source, such as the 10-Q and 10-K filings of XM and Sirius, and shall be based on the most recent figures available at the time of measurement.

(ii) Installation-Triggered Renegotiation. XM may initially trigger a renegotiation of this Agreement four (4) years following the Trigger Date if the number of Enabled GM Vehicles by that time is less than 1.24 million units and every two (2) years during the Term thereafter, if the number of Enabled GM Vehicles during the prior two (2) years is inconsistent with the OEM market demand for SDARS radios. Evidence of consistency with OEM market demand shall be based upon the concept that GM SDARS radio penetration in new GM Vehicles (expressed as a percent of new GM Vehicles produced for the U.S. market in a given Model Year or across a measurement period) is consistent with SDARS radio penetration in new vehicles from the balance of non-GM OEMs (expressed as a percent of non-GM new vehicles produced for the U.S. market in a given Model Year or across a measurement period). However, if XM’s share of the mobile SDARS aftermarket is below [***] percent ([***]%) across the applicable two (2)-year period, then the percent install target in new GM Vehicles shall be adjusted proportionately in accordance with the following table:

XM Share of Mobile SDARS aftermarket		Multiplier (times install target % of new GM Vehicles across the measurement period)
[***]		[***]
[***]		[***]
[***]		[***]
[***]		[***]
[***]		[***]

(iii) For example, if [***] percent ([***]%) of non-GM OEM vehicles were installed with satellite capable radios in a given Model Year and XM’s share of the mobile SDARS aftermarket were [***] percent ([***]%), then Distributor, for purposes of determining consistency with OEM market demand, would need to install ([***]%), or [***] percent ([***]%), of GM Vehicles with XM Receivers. For purposes of this clause (iii), Distributor’s new GM Vehicle install requirement shall be deemed to be satisfied if Distributor installs the lesser of (A) the number of Enabled GM Vehicles required by this clause (iii), or (B) 600,000 XM Receivers per year for each of the two (2) years in the measurement period.

(iv) Automatic Renegotiation.

- 11 -

(A) Upon the occurrence of a Regulatory Force Majeure Event, XM and Distributor agree to renegotiate mutually acceptable terms in light of the changed landscape arising from such Regulatory Force Majeure Event.

(B) XM may trigger a renegotiation of the terms of this Agreement at any time during the term if Distributor elects to install interoperable radios (i.e., radios capable of receiving both the XM Service and the Sirius Satellite Radio service, or other SDARS signals) in the absence of any regulatory requirement. In the event of a merger between XM and Sirius Satellite Radio, however, XM shall not have the right to trigger a renegotiation of this Agreement based on Distributor’s installation of interoperable radios compatible with both systems controlled by the combined company.

(c) Upon at least thirty (30) days’ prior notice either XM or GM shall have the right to terminate this Agreement if the other has breached any of its material obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that if such breach is of the type that is curable, then termination shall not be effective, and the notifying Party shall not exercise any of its other rights at law or in equity, unless the notified Party has failed to cure such material breach fully and to demonstrate to the notifying Party that such material breach has been cured within the thirty (30)-day period following the notice described in this Section 3(c).

(d) If the FCC revokes XM’s SDARS license as a result of the action(s) or inaction(s) of XM, then Distributor, at its option, shall have the right to declare XM in material breach of this Agreement, and such revocation shall not constitute a force majeure event under Section 10.

4. PAYMENTS TO DISTRIBUTOR:

(a) Guaranteed Payments. In consideration of Distributor installing quantities of XM Receivers in GM Vehicles consistent with the market demand throughout the Term and distributing (unless Distributor is otherwise expressly excused from its exclusivity obligations in Section 2(a)) only the XM Service during the Term, for each of the calendar years set forth in the following table that this Agreement is in effect, XM agrees to pay to Distributor the amount set forth opposite each pertinent calendar year:

In the event that this Agreement is terminated other than on the last day of a calendar year, then the payment set forth in the table above for such calendar year shall be prorated to reflect the number of days during such calendar year that this Agreement was in effect.

In May 2006, XM satisfied in full the guaranteed payments it owes to Distributor for each of the 2007, 2008 and 2009 calendar years by paying to GM $237,000,000, which amount represented the present value of such guaranteed payments, as agreed by XM and Distributor. Accordingly, all amounts payable by XM to Distributor under Section 4(a) hereof have been paid in full. The Parties also acknowledge and agree that the payment of $237,000,000 referenced above shall not be subject to retroactive adjustment by the Parties based on the level of performance of Distributor. The Distributor remains subject to the requirements of the first paragraph of Section 4(a). The Parties agree that if either Party initiates a renegotiation of the Agreement pursuant to the terms of Section 3(b), any adjustment that would have applied to the $237,000,000 referenced above shall instead be applicable to other payments that would be payable to GM hereunder.

If a Qualifying GM/XM Subscriber for whom a Subscriber Incentive is payable fails to pay XM at least [***] for receipt of the Base Subscription Service, then XM shall have the right to credit the difference between the Subscriber Incentive paid and the amount actually received by XM on account of such GM/XM Subscriber to future Subscriber Incentive payments. The Subscriber Incentive shall be paid in two (2) equal installments (Activation and Loyalty), the first (Activation) of which shall be due and payable no later than thirty (30) days following the end of the calendar month during which a Qualifying GM/XM Subscriber initially subscribes to the XM Service. The second (Loyalty) of which shall be due and payable no later than thirty (30) days following the end of the calendar month during which such Qualifying GM/XM Subscriber makes his initial three (3)-month subscriber payment for receipt of the XM Service. In no event shall the Subscriber Incentive be payable more than one time with respect to any one XM Receiver.

(d) Revenue Share. During the Term, Distributor shall receive a percentage of the revenue received by XM from GM/XM Subscribers (excluding subscriptions to the XM Services in GM Affiliate Vehicles) for the Base Subscription Service (the “Revenue Share”). The percentage shall depend on the number of Enabled GM Vehicles (including GM Affiliate Vehicles) at the time such revenue is received as follows:

If Number of Enabled GM Vehicles is:		Then Distributor’s Revenue Share shall be:
[***]		[***]
[***]		[***]
[***]		[***]
[***]		[***]
in excess of [***]		[***]

The Revenue Share percentages set forth in the table above shall apply to a Base Subscription Service price between [***] and $9.99 per month. If, in response to competitive pressures, the Base Subscription Service price falls below [***] per month, then the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify the Revenue Share in an equitable manner to reflect the realities of the market. If XM fundamentally changes its business model (e.g., employs a more aggressive advertising model), and, as a result of such change, the Base Subscription Service price falls below [***] per month, then the Revenue Share payable to Distributor shall be determined as if the Base Subscription Service price were $9.99 per month. Likewise, if the Base Subscription Service price is more than $9.99 per month, then the Revenue Share shall be determined as if the Base Subscription Service price were $9.99 per month.

The Revenue Share shall be due and payable no later than thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month during the Term based upon subscriber revenues collected during such month. In the event that the applicable Revenue Share percentage changes in the middle of a calendar month, XM shall make payments to GM using the Revenue Share percentage previously in effect, and, promptly after making such payment, XM and GM shall cooperatively analyze the applicable data and, as appropriate, XM shall make a follow-up adjusting payment to GM reflecting the Revenue Share percentage then in effect in accordance with this Section 4(d).

- 14 -

(e) Revenue Share (or other Compensation) for GM Affiliate Vehicles. Revenue share, if any, (or other compensation, if any) payable with respect to subscribers to the XM Service in GM Affiliate Vehicles that are enabled to receive the XM Service shall be as may be agreed from time to time by XM and the applicable GM Affiliate.

(f) Late Payment Interest. In the event XM shall fail to make any payment due to Distributor pursuant to this Section 4, XM shall pay interest on such unpaid amount, payable from time to time on demand, from the date such amount shall have become due to the date of payment thereof (after as well as before judgment), accruing on a daily basis, at a per annum rate equal to the sum of the Interest Rate in effect at such time plus one percent (1.0%). The existence of late payment interest shall not imply any right by XM to make any payments due hereunder late and shall not be deemed to be a waiver of Distributor’s right to demand payment of amounts payable hereunder when due.

5. ADVERTISING AND PROMOTIONAL COMPONENTS:

(a) Advertising Availability. During each of the calendar years set forth in the table below that this Agreement is in effect, XM agrees to make available to Distributor a number of advertising spots (the "Spots") on XM channels comprising the XM Service representing the following dollar amounts (expressed in thousands):

Spot dollars are to be re-distributed between calendar years in the event both parties, XM and the Distributor, mutually agree on the revised allocation. In the event that spot dollars are re-distributed, formal documentation of the mutual decision is required including, but not limited to, the dollar value re-distributed.

Year:		2001		2002		2003		2004		2005		2006		2007		2008		2009

Year:														2010		2011		2012
Dollar Value:														[***]		[***]		[***]

(b) The Spots shall only be used by Distributor to advertise and promote GM products and services. Except as set forth above, if Distributor does not use all of the Spots made available to Distributor during any calendar year, Distributor may not carry such unused Spots forward into any subsequent calendar year during the Term. Distributor, at its expense, shall create, produce and deliver the Spots to the location(s) specified by XM. The Spots shall not be adverse to, or competitive with, XM’s business(es) or require XM to make any payments to a third party or obtain any consents to insert the Spots on the XM Service. Distributor will indemnify the XM Indemnitees as provided herein in connection with Distributor’s use of the Spots (including, without limitation, the content thereof), and the Spots cannot be resold by Distributor to a third party. The dollar value of the Spots will be priced based on the then-current CPM rate sheets. Placement of the Spots shall be mutually agreed upon by the Parties.

(c) Market Support Funds. XM agrees that for each calendar year during the period commencing January 1, 2001, and ending December 31, 2009, XM shall allocate [***] per year, and during the period commencing January 1, 2010 and ending December 31, 2012, XM shall allocate [***] per year, of its annual advertising budget to Distributor to be placed through a mutually agreed agency, provided that such support funds pertain to the XM Service and are consistent with XM’s positioning and branding of the XM Service. The annual budget will be utilized for, but is not limited to, mutually agreed upon advertising opportunities, dealer promotions, on-site activities, training, and vehicle literature. Before initiating agency work, both parties will mutually agree to the initiative(s) and term(s).

(i) Market Support dollars are to be re-distributed between calendar years in the event both parties, XM and the Distributor, mutually agree on the revised allocation. In the event that Market Support funds are re-distributed, formal documentation of the mutual decision is required including, but not limited to, the dollar value re-distributed.

(ii) Distributor agrees to monthly reporting of the XM value realized through GM brand and field activities. XM agrees to monthly reporting of GM Market Support fund activities, monies spent, committed and forecast.

(d) Initial Free Service. Distributor shall use reasonable efforts to have all GM Vehicle Purchasers of Enabled GM Vehicles subscribe to the XM Service. As an incentive to increase subscriptions to the XM Service by Purchasers of new Enabled GM Vehicles, Distributor is authorized to offer Purchasers of new Enabled GM Vehicles (excluding GM Affiliate Vehicles) up to [***] months of free trial service to the Base Subscription Service. If Distributor elects to offer a free trial service to Purchasers of new GM Vehicles, then, within a reasonable period of time following receipt of the report described in Section 7(a), XM will activate the XM Receiver in the new GM Vehicles identified in such report.

(e) XM and Distributor shall mutually agree on the implementation of a marketing plan to attract additional subscribers to the XM Service by targeting Purchasers of Enabled GM Vehicles (excluding GM Affiliate Vehicles) who have not subscribed to the XM Service beyond the initial trial service period. Such marketing plan shall include steps which shall be agreed to by the Parties to advise the Purchasers that their Enabled GM Vehicles include an XM Receiver. XM agrees to pay Distributor a Revenue Share for subscribers who initially subscribe on a self-paid basis to the XM Service after twelve (12) months from the initial Purchase of an Enabled GM Vehicle; in consideration therefor, Distributor agrees to pay a portion of the marketing costs associated with targeting such subscribers, with such portion to be equal to the then-applicable Revenue Share percentage.

6. BANDWIDTH USAGE; STUDIO ACCESS; AUDIO CONTENT:

(a) During the Term and for each Bandwidth Extension Year, XM agrees to allocate for use by Distributor [***] of the bandwidth on the XM System for audio and/or data transmissions by Distributor to GM/XM Subscribers.

Until actually utilized by Distributor, XM shall be entitled to use the bandwidth allocated to Distributor hereunder.

(c) To the extent Distributor elects to utilize any or all of the bandwidth allocated to it hereunder, Distributor, at its expense, shall deliver to a location in the Territory designated by XM a complete audio signal and/or data transmission, as the case may be, by transmitting such signal and/or data via a mutually acceptable means and in a form that will not require XM to modify the signal and/or data in order to receive or to transmit such signal and/or data over the XM System. XM, at its expense, shall furnish all other facilities necessary for the receipt of Distributor’s transmission and for the retransmission of such signals and/or data to subscribers authorized to receive such signals and/or data.

(d) Distributor agrees that the technical quality of each audio signal and/or data transmission transmitted by Distributor to XM shall be at least equal to the technical quality of the audio signals and/or data transmissions delivered to XM by any third party distributor of audio services and/or data transmissions, respectively.

(e) Distributor shall not use the bandwidth allocated to it hereunder to create or transmit music or entertainment radio services that compete with, or otherwise use such bandwidth in a manner that could reasonably be expected to adversely interfere with, the XM business(es). XM shall not use the remainder of the bandwidth to create a service targeting new GM Vehicle Purchasers that packages together the essential features of the current OnStar features as described in Attachment 2 attached hereto.

(f) Without limiting the provisions of Section 9(b), Distributor shall indemnify and hold harmless the XM Indemnitees from and against any and all Costs arising out of Distributor’s use of such bandwidth, including, without limitation, the content of any of Distributor’s transmissions via such bandwidth or the sale or marketing of any products or services via such bandwidth.

Distributor shall make any request for access at least 30 days prior to the date it wishes to have access to and use of a radio programming studio in XM’s radio programming studio facilities; provided that such notice has been given, XM shall not unreasonably deny timely access. XM shall not be responsible for providing staffing or production support to Distributor in connection with Distributor's use of any XM radio programming studio.

(h) During the Term, XM will make available to Distributor, for prepackaging and distribution on Distributor's “Virtual Advisor,” at no cost to Distributor (except as provided in the last sentence of this paragraph), XM audio content. XM and Distributor

- 17 -

shall jointly agree on the specific content to be repackaged for distribution. Such audio content shall not be made available by XM to any telematics competitor of Distributor. The repackaged programming shall not exceed 5 minutes per day in any one category of content.

Distributor shall promote availability of XM Service programming in marketing communications associated with any distribution of such audio content. XM and Distributor shall work cooperatively to identify information or content that each can make available to the other on reasonable terms and conditions. Distributor will bear the cost of repackaging and transmitting such audio content from XM’s facilities to Distributor’s facilities.

If XM is effecting the Future Security Interest in connection with such Request for Advance, as a condition of funding the Advance, Lender shall have received a certificate of the Chief Financial Officer, the Treasurer or any Assistant Treasurer of XM, dated the date of the Advance certifying (i) that the Second Lien Security Agreement has been entered into by XM; (ii) that the necessary financing statement(s) have been recorded in the appropriate offices; (iii) that the Future Security Interest is junior only to the security interests securing the New Credit Facility and other Permitted Indebtedness; (iv) there is no Default or Event of Default under this Agreement; and (v) that XM continues to be obligated to make payments under this Agreement. Each Request for Advance shall be irrevocable and effective only upon receipt by the Lender.

The Lender shall make each Advance on the date requested by making a notation on its books of account (or, if applicable, the books of account of OnStar) that the Credit Facility Obligations due and owing by XM on the date of the Advance have been paid in an amount equal to the amount of the Advance.

(c) Interest.

(i) Interest Accrual. Interest shall accrue at the Interest Rate on a daily basis during each Interest Period on the unpaid principal amount of all Advances and shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date.

(ii) Default Interest. In the event XM shall fail to make any payment of the principal or interest when due, after giving effect to any applicable grace period provided for in this Agreement, XM shall pay interest on such unpaid amount, payable from time to time on demand, from the date such amount shall have become due to the date of payment thereof (after as well as before judgment), accruing on a daily basis, at a per annum rate equal to the sum of the Interest Rate in effect at such time plus one percent (1.0%).

- 25 -

(d) Payments and Notes.

(i) Form of Payment. Each payment of principal or interest will be made to the Lender by certified or bank cashier’s check or wire transfer of immediately available funds, at such address or to such account as the Lender specifies in writing to XM at least five (5) Business Days before such payment is to be made.

(ii) Application of Insufficient Payments. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Lender to pay fully all amounts of principal and interest, due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay interest due hereunder, and (ii) second, to pay principal then due hereunder.

(iii) Promissory Note. The Lender may request that the Advances be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, XM shall prepare, execute and deliver to the Lender a promissory note payable to the Lender and in a form approved by the Lender. In the event that such a note is issued, XM will pay all sums becoming due hereunder for interest or principal, without the presentation or surrender of such note or the making of any notation thereon, except that if the such note is paid in full, following such payment, the such note shall be surrendered to XM for cancellation.

(e) Payment at Maturity. The outstanding principal amount of all Advances, together with any accrued interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full in immediately available U.S. Dollars on the earlier of: (i) the Maturity Date, or (ii) such earlier date as the Advances become due and payable pursuant to this Agreement.

(f) Prepayment.

(i) Optional Prepayment. The Advances, including all accrued interest thereon, may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time, without premium or penalty; provided that XM shall give the Lender not less than one (1) Business Day’s written notice prior to making such prepayment, specifying the amount to be prepaid and the date of prepayment. Each such notice of prepayment shall be irrevocable upon receipt by the Lender. Any Advances prepaid pursuant to this Section 13(f) shall not reduce the Loan Commitment and, within the limits of such Loan Commitment, amounts of Advances so prepaid may be reborrowed pursuant to Section 13(a) hereof.

(ii) Mandatory Prepayments.

(A) XM shall, on or before March 31st of each calendar year, prepay all or part of the amount of any outstanding Advances, including all accrued interest thereon, without premium or penalty, in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) fifty percent (50%) of Excess Cash for the fiscal year most recently then ended, and (y) the amount necessary to prepay the Credit Facility Obligations in full.

(B) In the event that XM or Holdings shall, directly or indirectly, consolidate or merge with or into another entity (whether or not XM or Holdings is the surviving corporation), or sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, in any such case, other than in connection with a Parent Company Merger or a consolidation or merger permitted under Section 13(j)(ii) hereof or under any Agreement Guarantee, then the Advances shall be immediately prepaid in whole, including all interest thereon, without premium or penalty. For the avoidance of doubt, consolidation with or into another entity (whether or not XM or Holdings is the surviving corporation) means a corporate consolidation and not a consolidation under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

(C) In the event the New Credit Facility is terminated by the lender or by XM prior to the expiration thereof and not replaced with a New Credit Facility involving commitments or aggregate debt financing (as applicable) of at least $250 million with a commitment period or term (as applicable) that extends until or beyond December 31, 2009, then the Advances shall be immediately prepaid in whole, including all interest thereon, without premium or penalty.

For the avoidance of doubt, consolidation with or into another entity (whether or not XM or Holdings is the surviving corporation) means a corporate consolidation and not a consolidation under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

(iv) No Further Advances.

(A) If the New Credit Facility has not been extended for the period beginning May 5, 2009 until or beyond December 31, 2009, or has not been replaced with a New Credit Facility involving commitments or aggregate debt financing (as applicable) of at least $250 million with a commitment period or term (as applicable) that extends until or beyond December 31, 2009, then for such time following May 5, 2009 that XM does not have a New Credit Facility, XM shall not be permitted (i) to request further Advances and (ii) assuming a Second Lien Security Agreement is in place, to grant purported first priority liens (other than “Permitted Liens” as defined in the New Credit Facility from time to time and/or the grant of a first lien in favor of the lenders under the New Credit Facility in accordance with the terms of the Second Lien Security Agreement). Any Advances made to XM prior to such a period shall be permitted to remain outstanding until required to be repaid under this Section 13.

- 27 -

(B) If the New Credit Facility is terminated by the lender or by XM prior to the expiration thereof and is not replaced with a New Credit Facility involving commitments or aggregate debt financing (as applicable) of at least $250 million, then for such time that XM does not have a New Credit Facility, XM shall not be permitted to request further Advances.

In the event that any Subsidiary of XM becomes required to become a Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to Section 13(j) hereof, such Subsidiary shall, as promptly as practicable following such occurrence, become party to the Second Lien Security Agreement in accordance with the provisions thereof. The Lender, by its acceptance hereof, consents and agrees to the terms of the Second Lien Security Agreement and the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement (including, without limitation, the provisions providing for foreclosure and release of collateral), as the same may be in effect from time to time in accordance with its terms, and authorizes and directs the lenders under the New Credit Facility, the Collateral Agent (as defined in the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement) or other collateral agent to the extent any is named to enter into the Second Lien Security Agreement or the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith. XM shall do or cause to be done all such acts and things as may be required by the provisions of the Second Lien Security Agreement, when entered into, to assure and confirm to the Lender and any collateral agent the security interests in the collateral contemplated hereby and thereby, as from time to time constituted, so as to render the same available for the security and benefit of this Agreement, according to the intent and purposes herein and therein expressed.

Exhibit B

Form of Agreement Guarantee for Subsidiary Guarantor

This Agreement Guarantee is delivered by the undersigned (the “Subsidiary Guarantor”) pursuant to the Third Amended and Restated Distribution and Credit Agreement dated as of                         , 2008 among XM Satellite Radio Inc., XM Satellite Radio Holdings Inc. and General Motors Corporation (the “Agreement”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement.

For value received, the Subsidiary Guarantor hereby fully and unconditionally guarantees to the Lender that: (a) the principal amount of, and premium and interest on, the Advances will be duly and punctually paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, and interest on overdue principal and premium amount and (to the extent permitted by law) interest on any interest, if any, on the Advances and all other obligations of XM to the Lender under the Agreement (including fees, expenses or other) will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of the Advances or any of such other obligations the same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at the Maturity Date, by acceleration or otherwise.

The Subsidiary Guarantor, and by its acceptance hereof, the Lender, hereby confirms that it is the intention of such parties that the guarantee by such Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to this Agreement Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Lender and the Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantor under this Agreement Guarantee shall be limited to the minimum extent necessary to ensure that, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of the Subsidiary Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under this Agreement Guarantee, the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantor under this Agreement Guarantee do not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under applicable law.

Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or failing performance of any other obligation of XM to the Lender, for whatever reason, the Subsidiary Guarantor will be obligated to pay or to perform or to cause the performance of, the same immediately without the necessity of any action by the Lender. An Event of Default under Section 13(i) of the Agreement shall constitute an event of default under this Agreement Guarantee, and shall entitle the Lender to accelerate the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder in the same manner and to the same extent as the obligations of XM.

The Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Agreement, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by the Lender with respect to any thereof, the entry of any judgment against XM, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of the Subsidiary Guarantor.

The Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes: (a) any right to require the Lender to proceed against XM, the Parent Guarantor any other Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person or to proceed against or exhaust any security held by or on behalf of the Lender at any time or to pursue any other remedy in any secured party’s power before proceeding against the Subsidiary Guarantor; (b) any defense that may arise by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority, death or disability of any other Person or Persons or the failure of the Lender to file or enforce a claim against the estate (in administration, bankruptcy or any other proceeding) of any other Person or Persons; (c) demand, protest and notice of any kind, including but not limited to notice of the existence, creation or incurring of any new or additional Indebtedness or obligation or of any action or non-action on the part of the Subsidiary Guarantor, XM, the Lender, any creditor of the Subsidiary Guarantor or on the part of any other Person whomsoever in connection with any obligations the performance of which are hereby guaranteed; (d) any defense based upon an election of remedies by the Lender, including but not limited to an election to proceed against the Subsidiary Guarantor for reimbursement; (e) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (f) any defense arising because of the Lender’s election, in any proceeding instituted under the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”), of the application of Section 1111 (b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; and (g) any defense based on any borrowing or grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Subsidiary Guarantor hereby covenants that this Agreement Guarantee will not be discharged except by payment in full of all principal and interest on the Advances and all other costs provided for under the Agreement, or as provided in Section 13(j)(iii) of the Agreement.

If the Lender is required by any court or otherwise to return to either XM or the Subsidiary Guarantor, or any custodian, trustee, or similar official acting in relation to XM or the Subsidiary Guarantor, any amount paid by XM or the Subsidiary Guarantor to the Lender, this Agreement Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. The Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Lender in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby.

The Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Lender, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Section 13(i) of the Agreement for the purposes hereof, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any acceleration of such obligations as provided in Section 13(i) of the Agreement, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsidiary Guarantor for the purpose of this Agreement Guarantee.

The Subsidiary Guarantor hereby acknowledges that it shall not consolidate or merge with or into a corporation or any other entity other than XM or another Subsidiary Guarantor (whether or not affiliated with the Subsidiary Guarantor), or transfer all or substantially all of its assets to a corporation or any other entity other than XM or another Subsidiary Guarantor (whether or not affiliated with the Subsidiary Guarantor), unless this Agreement Guarantee shall be expressly assumed (in the event that the Subsidiary Guarantor is not the surviving corporation in the merger) or a new Agreement Guarantee shall be signed by such successor corporation or other entity and delivered to the Lender. Any Agreement Guarantee so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under the Agreement as any Agreement Guarantee theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of the Agreement as though all of such Agreement Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution thereof.

This Agreement Guarantee shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned Subsidiary Guarantor has caused this Agreement Guarantee to be duly executed as of                         , 200  .
