Following the Split-Off at 6:00 p.m., New York City time, on

(other than New Sirius and its subsidiaries) will receive one-tenth
(0.1) of a share of New Sirius common stock, with cash paid in lieu
of any fractional shares. The Split-Off and the Merger will create
a new public company which will continue to operate under the

Liberty Media and Sirius XM expect that New Sirius will have
approximately 339.1 million shares of New Sirius common stock
outstanding immediately following the consummation of the Split-Off
and Merger, of which former holders of Liberty SiriusXM common
stock are expected to own approximately 81% of New Sirius and
former Sirius XM minority stockholders are expected to own the
remaining 19% of New Sirius.
