                           IBFS File No. SAT-STA-20070907-00122

Special temporary authority (STA) IS GRANTED to Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. (Sirius) to operate an
indoor terrestrial repeater with an Effective Isotropically Radiated Power (EIRP) of up to 200 watts
(average) and up to five indoor repeaters with EIRP of up to 0.0001 watts at various trade shows taking
place from November 2007 through February 2008, according to the technical parameters specified in its
application, subject to the following conditions:

1. Any actions taken as a result of this STA are solely at the applicant’s own risk. This STA shall not
   prejudice the outcome of the final rules adopted by the Commission in IB Docket No. 95-9 1;

2. Operations of the terrestrial repeaters authorized pursuant to this STA are on a non-interference basis
   with respect to all permanently authorized radiocommunication facilities. Sirius shall provide the
   information and follow the process set forth in paragraphs 14 and 17 in 16 FCC Rcd 16773 (Int’l Bur.
   2001) and 16 FCC Rcd 16781 (Int’l Bur. 2001), as modified by 16 FCC Rcd 18481 (Int’l Bur. 2001)
   and 16 FCC Rcd 18484 (Int’l Bur. 2001);

3. The terrestrial repeaters are restricted to the simultaneous retransmission of the complete
   programming, and only that programming, transmitted by the satellite directly to SDARS receivers;

4. The terrestrial repeaters shall comply with Part 1 of the Commission’s rules, Subpart I - Procedures
   Implementing the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, including the guidelines for human
   exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields as defined in Sections l.l307(b)and 1.13I O of the
   Commission’s rules;

5. The out-of-band emissions of the terrestrial repeaters shall be limited to 75+log(EIRP) dB less than
   the transmitter EIRP;

6. Sirius will maintain full ownership and operational control of the terrestrial repeaters;

7. Sirius will immediately shut down the terrestrial repeaters upon a complaint of interference, upon
   direction from the Commission, or upon finding that the repeaters have not been properly installed;

8. This STA expires after 180 days, or on the date on which permanent rules governing repeater
   operations become effective, whichever occurs first.

9. Sirius is granted 30 days from the date of the release of this authorization to decline the authorization
   as conditioned. Failure to respond within that period will constitute formal acceptance of the
   authorization as conditioned.

10. This authorization is not one relating to an “activity of a continuing nature” for purposes of Section
    1.62 of the Commission’s rules and Section 558(c) of the Administrative Procedure Act.
    Continuation of operations beyond the term of this authorization will require prior affirmative
    authorization by the FCC.
