Sirius XM Radio Inc. (Sirius XM) is granted special temporary authority (STA) for a period of
60 days to operate indoor terrestrial repeaters with an effective isotropically radiated power
(EIRP) (average) of (1) up to 10 watts and (2) up to 0.0001 watts at trade shows and other indoor
locations, such as automobile industry promotional events, press and marketing events, and
investor relations events. This authorization is subject to the Commission‘s rules, the operational
and technical parameters specified in the application, and 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—91;

2. Operation of the terrestrial repeaters authorized pursuant to this STA is on a non—interference
   basis with respect to all permanently authorized radiocommunication facilities;

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. Where applicable, coordination of the terrestrial repeaters shall be completed with all
   affected Administrations prior to operation, in accordance with all applicable international
   agreements including those with Canada and Mexico;

5. 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 1.1307(b) and 1.1310 of the Commission‘s rules;

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

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

8. Sirius XM 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;

9. This action is without prejudice to action in IBFS File No. SAT—STA—20081205—00222.

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.

11. Sirius XM 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.
