This excerpt taken from the SIRI 10-Q filed Nov 1, 2007.
U.S. Electronics Arbitration. In May 2006, U.S. Electronics Inc., a licensed distributor and a former licensed manufacturer of SIRIUS radios, commenced an arbitration proceeding against us. U.S. Electronics alleges that we breached our contract; failed to pay monies owed under the contract; tortiously interfered with U.S. Electronics’ relationships with retailers and manufacturers; withheld information relating to the FCC’s inquiring into SIRIUS radios that include FM modulators; and otherwise acted in bad faith. U.S. Electronics is seeking at least $48,000 in damages. We believe that a substantial portion of these damages are barred by the limitation of liability provisions contained in the contract between us and U.S. Electronics. U.S. Electronics contends, and will be permitted to try to prove in the arbitration, that these provisions do not bar its damages because of, among other reasons, our alleged bad faith and tortious conduct. We are vigorously defending this action. A hearing in this arbitration is scheduled to commence in March 2008.
