Interest and Investment Income. Interest and investment income includes realized gains and losses, dividends and interest income, including amortization of the premium and discount arising at purchase.

 

   

Three Months: For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, interest and investment income was $738 and $2,802, respectively. The decrease of $2,064 was primarily attributable to lower interest rates in 2009 and a lower average cash balance.

Interest Expense. Interest expense includes interest on outstanding debt, reduced by interest capitalized in connection with the construction of our satellites and launch vehicles.

 

   

Three Months: For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, interest expense was $65,743 and $17,675, respectively, which represents an increase of $48,068. Interest expense increased significantly as a result of the Merger, due to additional debt and higher interest rates.

Loss from Redemption of Debt. Loss from redemption of debt includes losses incurred as a result of the conversion of our 2  1/2% Convertible Notes due 2009.

The increase was attributable to an impairment charge recorded on our investment in XM Canada in the amount of $3,034 during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and the inclusion of our share of SIRIUS Canada’s and XM Canada’s net losses for the three months ended March 31, 2009.

The increase was primarily the result of interest expense for our 95/8% Senior Notes due 2013 issued in August 2005, offset by a decrease in interest expense as a result of the redemption of our 15% Senior Secured Discount Notes due 2007 and our 14½% Senior Secured Notes due 2009 in September 2005 and the effect of interest capitalized in 2006 in connection with our new satellite.

The increase was attributable to higher interest rates and the purchase of auction rate securities and commercial paper using the proceeds from the issuance of our 9 5/8% Senior Notes due 2013 in August 2005.

          Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $9,799 to $17,124 for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $7,325 for the three months ended March 31, 2005.

Other Income (Expense)

      Debt Restructuring. For the year ended December 31, 2003, we recorded a gain of $256,538 in connection with the restructuring of our long-term debt. This gain represents the difference between the carrying value of our 15% Senior Secured Discount Notes due 2007, 1412% Senior Secured Notes due 2009, Lehman and Loral term loans, including accrued interest, and the fair market value of the common stock issued in exchange therefor, adjusted for unamortized debt issuance costs and direct costs associated with the restructuring. This gain is net of a loss on our 834% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2009 exchanged in the restructuring. The loss represents the difference between the fair market value of the common stock issued in the exchange and the fair market value of the common stock which would have been issued under the original conversion ratio, including accrued interest, adjusted for unamortized debt issuance costs and direct costs associated with the restructuring.

      Interest and Investment Income. Interest and investment income increased $4,426 to $9,713 for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $5,287 for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase in our average cash and cash equivalents balance resulting from funds raised through offerings of our common stock and debt securities.

      Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $9,124 to $41,386 for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $50,510 for the year ended December 31, 2003. The decrease was a result of the reduction in our outstanding debt and the exchange of debt for our common stock in connection with our 2003 restructuring, offset by additional interest expense in 2004 associated with our 212% Convertible Notes due 2009 and 314% Convertible Notes due 2011. Interest expense included debt conversion costs of $19,592 and $19,439 for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Debt conversion costs for 2004 were a result of the issuance of 56,409,853 shares of our common stock in exchange for $69,000 in aggregate principal amount of our 312% Convertible Notes due 2008, including accrued interest. Debt conversion costs for 2003 were a result of the issuance of 54,805,993 shares of our common stock in exchange for $65,000 in aggregate principal amount of our 312% Convertible Notes due 2008, including accrued interest.

      Other Income. Other income for the year ended December 31, 2004 was primarily related to a legal settlement in our favor and a New York State franchise tax refund.
