                        (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTERPRISE)

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
             (DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED)
                                   (UNAUDITED)


GENERAL

         The accompanying consolidated financial statements and the notes
thereto do not include all of the information and disclosures normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
only of normal, recurring adjustments) considered necessary to fairly state our
consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations have been
included. These financial statements should be read in connection with our
consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 1999 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission.

NET LOSS PER SHARE

         Basic loss per share is based on the weighted average number of
outstanding shares of our Common Stock. Diluted loss per share adjusts the
weighted average for the potential dilution that could occur if common stock
equivalents (i.e. convertible stock, convertible debt, warrants and stock
options) were exercised or converted into Common Stock. As of September 30, 2000
and 1999, approximately 19,808,000 and 19,842,000 common stock equivalents were
outstanding, respectively, and were excluded from the calculation of diluted
loss per share, as they were antidilutive.

MARKETABLE SECURITIES

         Marketable securities consist of fixed income securities and are stated
at market value. Marketable securities are defined as trading securities under
the provision of SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and
Equity Securities" ("SFAS No. 115"), and unrealized holding gains and losses are
reflected in earnings. Unrealized holding gains were $2,533 and $3,882 at
September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively.

RESTRICTED INVESTMENTS

         Restricted investments consist of fixed income securities and are
stated at amortized cost plus accrued interest. Restricted investments are
defined as held-to-maturity securities under the provision of SFAS No. 115 and
unrealized holding gains and losses are not reflected in earnings. Unrealized
holding losses were $345 and $716 at September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999,
respectively. The securities included in restricted investments are restricted
to provide for interest payments due through May 15, 2002 on our 14 1/2% Senior
Secured Notes due 2009.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

         Property and equipment are recorded at cost and include interest on
funds borrowed to finance construction. Capitalized interest was $125,428 and
$72,810 at September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)
             (DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED)
                                   (UNAUDITED)


SHORT-TERM NOTES PAYABLE

         We entered into a credit agreement with Bank of America and other
lenders in July 1998 under which Bank of America and other lenders provided us a
$115,000 term loan. The proceeds of this facility were used to fund progress
payments for the purchase of launch services and to pay interest, fees and other
related expenses. On February 29, 2000, we repaid these loans and cancelled the
related credit agreement.

DEFERRED SATELLITE PAYMENTS

         Under an amended and restated contract (the "Loral Satellite Contract")
with Space Systems/Loral, Inc. ("Loral"), Loral has deferred certain amounts due
under the Loral Satellite Contract. The amounts deferred bear interest at 10%
per year and were originally due in quarterly installments beginning in June
2002, however, the agreement governing these deferred amounts provides that this
date, and subsequent payment dates, will be extended by the number of days that
the achievement of any milestone under the Loral Satellite Contract is delayed
beyond the date set forth in the Loral Satellite Contract. On November 1, 2000,
we announced that our fourth, ground spare, satellite is expected to be
delivered to ground storage in August 2001. This satellite was originally
expected to be delivered to ground storage in October 2000. As a result of
Loral's delay in delivering this satellite, we do not expect to make any
required payments with respect to these deferred amounts until April 2003, at
the earliest. We have the right to prepay these deferred payments, together with
accrued interest, without penalty.

ENGINEERING DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS

         We have entered into an agreement with Lucent Technologies, Inc.
("Lucent") pursuant to which Lucent has agreed to use commercially reasonable
efforts to deliver integrated circuits ("chip sets") which will be used in
consumer electronic devices capable of receiving our broadcasts. In addition, we
have entered into agreements with Alpine Electronics Inc., Audiovox Corporation,
Clarion Co., Ltd., Delphi Delco Electronics Systems, Kenwood Corporation,
Matsushita Communication Industrial Corporation of USA, Mitsubishi Electric
Automotive America, Inc., Pioneer Corporation, Recoton Corporation, Sanyo
Electronic Co. Ltd., Visteon Automotive Systems and other contract manufacturers
to design, develop and produce radios capable of receiving our service and have
agreed to pay certain costs associated with these radios. We record expenses
under these agreements as the work is performed. Total expenses related to these
agreements were $12,354 and $5,831 for the three month periods ended September
30, 2000 and September 30, 1999, respectively, and $63,475 for the period May
17, 1990 (date of inception) to September 30, 2000.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

         Certain amounts in the prior period's financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
             (DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED)


SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

         The following cautionary statements identify important factors that
could cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected in
forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in
other reports and documents published by us from time to time. Any statements
about our expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions, future events
or performance are not historical facts and may be "forward-looking" within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements
are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as
"will likely result," "are expected to," "will continue," "is anticipated,"
"estimated," "intends," "plans," "projection" and "outlook." Accordingly, these
statements involve estimates, assumptions and uncertainties that could cause our
actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking
statements. Any forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by
reference to the factors discussed throughout our Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1999 (the "1999 Form 10-K"), and particularly the
risk factors set forth under the caption "Business--Risk Factors" in Part I of
the 1999 Form 10-K. Among the significant factors that have a direct bearing on
our results of operations are:

o    unavailability of radios and our dependence upon third parties to develop,
     manufacture and distribute radios;

o    loss or impairment of one or more of our satellites due to operational
     failures;

o    unsuccessful launch or deployment of our third satellite;

o    delays in constructing our fourth, ground spare, satellite;

o    delays in implementing our business plan;

o    unproven market for our service and unproven applications of technology;
     and

o    our need for additional financing.

Because the risk factors referred to above could cause actual results or
outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking
statements made by us or on our behalf, you should not place undue reliance on
any such forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statements
speak only as of the date on which such statement is made, and we undertake no
obligation to update any forward-looking statement or statements to reflect
events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to
reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. New factors emerge from time to
time, and it is not possible for us to predict which will arise. In addition, we
cannot assess the impact of each such factor on our business or the extent to
which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ
materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

OVERVIEW


         Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. ("Sirius") was organized in May 1990 and is
in its development stage. Our principal activities to date have included
developing our technology, obtaining regulatory approval for our service,
launching two satellites, constructing one additional satellite and commencing
construction of a fourth satellite, constructing our broadcast facility,
acquiring content for our programming, constructing our ground repeater network,
arranging for the development of radios, strategic planning, market research,
recruiting our management team and securing financing for capital expenditures
and working capital. We will require funds for working capital, interest on
borrowings, acquisition of programming, financing costs and operating expenses
until some time after we commence operations. We cannot assure you that we will
ever commence operations, attain any particular level of revenues or achieve
profitability.

         We plan to begin broadcasting in January. We expect to have a limited
quantity of radios available during the first quarter of 2001. These radios will
be distributed through select vehicle manufacturers and radio manufacturers as
part of a comprehensive quality assurance program. The technical portion of this
program will include end to end testing and integration of our studio,
broadcast, transaction management and customer service systems. The content
portion of this program will refine Sirius' programming based on feedback
obtained from users of these initial radios.

         Radios will not be made widely available until our quality assurance
program has been completed and we can ensure a high quality consumer service.
Subscriptions to Sirius from the sale of radios in the autosound aftermarket are
expected to increase in each quarter of 2001, with a majority of such
subscriptions occurring in the fourth quarter, corresponding to the peak annual
sales period for consumer electronics products. We expect factory installation
of radios in new vehicles to occur on a limited basis in the first half of 2001,
with volume increasing as manufacturers complete their qualification of radios
and new car models are introduced in the third quarter of 2001.

         Upon commencing operations, we expect our primary source of revenues to
be subscription fees. We anticipate that our subscription fee will be $9.95 per
month, with a one time activation fee per subscriber. We also expect our
subscription to be included with the sale or lease of certain new vehicles.
In addition, we expect to derive revenues from directly selling or bartering
advertising on our non-music channels.

         We expect that the operating expenses associated with our service will
consist primarily of marketing and sales costs, cost to acquire programming,
expenses of maintaining our satellite and broadcasting system and general and
administrative costs. Costs to acquire programming include payments to build and
maintain an extensive music library and royalty payments for broadcasting music.
As of November 10, 2000, we had 152 employees. By commencement of operations, we
expect to have approximately 300 employees.

         Our first and second satellites were launched on June 30, 2000 and
September 5, 2000, respectively. Loral delivered us title to our first and
second satellites on July 31, 2000 and September 29, 2000, respectively,
following the completion of in-orbit testing. We expect to launch our third
satellite shortly and we expect our fourth satellite to be delivered to
ground storage in August 2001.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1999

         We had net losses of $31,170 and $13,123 for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Our total operating expenses were
$31,819 and $12,932 for the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.

         Engineering design and development costs were $17,476 and $7,188 for
the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. These
engineering costs represented primarily payments to Lucent (in the 1999 quarter)
and to Lucent and other radio development and contract manufacturing partners
(in the 2000 quarter). The increase in costs in the 2000 period resulted
primarily from the increased activity in our radio development effort as we
prepare to launch our service.

         General and administrative expenses increased for the three months
ended September 30, 2000 to $14,343 from $5,744 for the three months ended
September 30, 1999. General and administrative expenses increased principally
due to the growth of our management team and workforce, expenses in connection
with stock options granted to non-employees and the purchase of in-orbit
insurance for our first and second satellites. The major components of general
and administrative expenses in the 2000 quarter were salaries and employment
related costs (40%), marketing costs (17%) and rent and occupancy costs (12%),
while in the 1999 quarter the major components were salaries and employment
related costs (29%), marketing costs (12%) and rent and occupancy costs (22%).
The remaining portion of general and administrative expenses (31% in the 2000
quarter and 37% in the 1999 quarter) consisted of other costs such as legal and
regulatory, insurance, consulting, travel, depreciation and supplies, with no
such amount exceeding 10% of the total in either the 2000 or 1999 quarters.

         The increase in interest and investment income to $6,265 for the three
months ended September 30, 2000 from $3,809 for the three months ended September
30, 1999 was the result of higher average balances of cash, marketable
securities and restricted investments during the 2000 quarter. The higher
average balances of cash, marketable securities and restricted investments
during the 2000 quarter were due to the investment throughout the 2000 period of
proceeds from financing activities in 2000 and the fourth quarter of 1999,
including the issuance of our 8 3/4% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2009,
our 9.2% Series B Junior Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, our 9.2% Series
D Junior Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock and 5,740,322 shares of our
Common Stock.

         Interest expense was $5,616 for the three months ended September 30,
2000 and $4,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999, net of
capitalized interest of $14,919 and $16,393, respectively. Gross interest
expense increased by $142 and capitalized interest decreased by $1,474 during
the period. We capitalized less interest during the 2000 quarter due to the
successful launches of our first satellite on June 30, 2000 and our second
satellite on September 5, 2000.


NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 COMPARED WITH NINE MONTHS
ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999

         We had net losses of $90,773 and $36,168 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Our total operating expenses were
$87,463 and $38,694 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.


                                       8





<PAGE>

         Engineering design and development costs were $51,630 and $21,532 for
the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. These
engineering costs represented primarily payments to Lucent (in the 1999 period)
and to Lucent and other radio development and contract manufacturing partners
(in the 2000 period). The increase in costs in the 2000 period resulted
primarily from the increased activity in our radio development effort as we
prepare to launch our service.

         General and administrative expenses increased for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 to $35,833 from $17,162 for the nine months ended September
30, 1999. General and administrative expenses increased due to the growth of our
management team and workforce, expenses in connection with stock options
granted to non-employees and the purchase of in-orbit insurance for our first
and second satellites. The major components of general and administrative
expenses in the 2000 period were salaries and employment related costs (44%) and
rent and occupancy costs (13%), while in the 1999 period the major components
were salaries and employment related costs (30%) and rent and occupancy costs
(24%). The remaining portion of general and administrative expenses (43% in the
2000 period and 46% in the 1999 period) consisted of other costs such as legal
and regulatory, insurance, marketing, consulting, travel, depreciation and
supplies, with only marketing expenses (13%) exceeding 10% of the total in the
2000 period and only legal and regulatory costs (13%) exceeding 10% of the total
in the 1999 period.

         The increase in interest and investment income to $20,691 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 from $10,209 for the nine months ended September
30, 1999 was the result of higher average balances of cash, marketable
securities and restricted investments during the 2000 period. The higher average
balances of cash, marketable securities and restricted investments during the
2000 period were due to the investment throughout the 2000 period of proceeds
from financing activities in 1999 and 2000, including the issuance of our
14 1/2% Senior Secured Notes due 2009, our 8 3/4% Convertible Subordinated Notes
due 2009, our 9.2% Series B Junior Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, our
9.2% Series D Junior Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock and 5,740,322 shares
of our Common Stock.

         Interest expense was $24,001 for the nine months ended September 30,
2000 and $7,683 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999, net of capitalized
interest of $52,618 and $39,785, respectively. The increase in interest expense
for the 2000 period was related primarily to the induced conversion of a portion
of our 8 3/4% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2009. Gross interest expense
increased by $29,151 greater than the corresponding increase in capitalized
interest of $12,833. In addition, gross interest expense and capitalized
interest for the 2000 period increased due to interest accruing on our 14 1/2%
Senior Secured Notes due 2009 issued in May 1999 and our 8 3/4% Convertible
Subordinated Notes due 2009 issued in September and October 1999, which were
outstanding throughout the 2000 period but during only a portion of the 1999
period.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         At September 30, 2000, we had cash, cash equivalents, marketable
securities and restricted investments totaling $293,309 and working capital of
$253,734 compared with cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and
restricted investments totaling $467,073 and working capital of $304,010 at
December 31, 1999.


FUNDING REQUIREMENTS

         We believe we can fund our planned operations, including the
construction of our broadcast system, into the fourth quarter of 2001 from our
existing working capital and the proceeds of the Lehman Term Loan Facility (as
defined in "Sources of Funding" below). We anticipate that we will require
approximately $75,000 beyond cash on hand and the proceeds of this facility to
fund operations during the balance of 2001, although this amount is subject to a
number of factors affecting our operations. In addition, we may require
additional funds until our revenues grow substantially.



                                       9





<PAGE>


         We entered into the Loral Satellite Contract to build and launch the
satellites necessary to transmit our service. The Loral Satellite Contract
provides for Loral to construct, launch and deliver three satellites in-orbit
and checked-out, to construct for us a fourth satellite for use as a ground
spare and to provide satellite launch services. We are committed to make
aggregate payments of approximately $745,890 under the Loral Satellite Contract,
which includes $15,000 of long-lead time parts for a fifth satellite. As of
September 30, 2000, $644,514 of this obligation had been satisfied. Under the
Loral Satellite Contract, with the exception of a payment made to Loral in March
1993, payments are made in installments that commenced in April 1997 and will
end in December 2003. Approximately half of the payments under the Loral
Satellite Contract are contingent upon Loral meeting specified milestones.

         We also will require funds for working capital, interest on borrowings,
acquisition of programming, financing costs and operating expenses until some
time after we commence operations. We expect our interest expense will increase
significantly when compared to our 1999 interest expense as a result of the
issuance of our 14 1/2% Senior Secured Notes due 2009 in May 1999 and our 8 3/4%
Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2009 in September and October 1999,
respectively. A portion of the net proceeds of the issuance of our 14 1/2%
Senior Secured Notes due 2009 was used to purchase a portfolio of U.S.
government securities in an amount sufficient to pay interest on these notes
through May 15, 2002.

         The amount and timing of our actual cash requirements will depend upon
numerous factors, including costs associated with the launch and deployment of
our third satellite, construction of our fourth, ground spare, satellite,
construction and deployment of our ground repeater network costs associated with
the design and development of chip sets and radios, the rate of growth of our
business after commencing service, costs of financing and the possibility of
unanticipated costs. We will require additional funds if there are delays, cost
overruns, unanticipated expenses, satellite losses or impairments, launch
failures, satellite system or launch services change orders or shortfalls in
estimated levels of operating cash flow.


SOURCES OF FUNDING

         To date, we have funded our capital needs through the issuance of debt
and equity securities. As of September 30, 2000 we had received a total of
approximately $874,000 in equity capital as a result of the following
transactions: (1) the sale of shares of our Common Stock prior to the issuance
of our FCC license (net proceeds of approximately $22,000); (2) the sale of
5,400,000 shares of 5% Delayed Convertible Preferred Stock (net proceeds of
approximately $121,000) in April 1997 (in November 1997, we exchanged 1,846,799
shares of our 10 1/2% Series C Convertible Preferred Stock for all the
outstanding shares of 5% Delayed Convertible Preferred Stock); (3) the sale of
4,955,488 shares of our Common Stock (net proceeds of approximately $71,000) in
1997; (4) the sale of 5,000,000 shares of our Common Stock to Prime 66 Partners,
L.P. (net proceeds of approximately $98,000) in November 1998; (5) the sale of
1,350,000 shares of our 9.2% Series A Junior Cumulative Convertible Preferred
Stock to the Apollo Investment Fund IV, L.P. and Apollo Overseas Partners IV,
L.P. (collectively, the "Apollo Investors") (net proceeds of approximately
$129,000) in December 1998; (6) the sale of 650,000 shares of our 9.2% Series B
Junior Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock to the Apollo Investors (net
proceeds of approximately $63,000) in November 1999; (7) the sale of 3,000,000
shares of our Common Stock in an underwritten public offering (net proceeds of
approximately $68,000) in September 1999, and an additional 450,000 shares of
our Common Stock in connection with the exercise of the underwriters'
over-allotment option (net proceeds of approximately $10,000) in October 1999;
(8) the sale of 2,000,000 shares of our 9.2% Series D Junior Cumulative
Convertible Preferred Stock to certain affiliates of The Blackstone Group, L.P.
(net proceeds of approximately $192,000) in January 2000; and (9) the sale of
2,290,322 shares of our Common Stock to DaimlerChrysler Corporation (net
proceeds of approximately $100,000) in February 2000.

<PAGE>



         In September 1999, we issued $125,000 aggregate principal amount of our
8 3/4% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2009 in an underwritten public
offering (net proceeds of approximately $119,000). In October 1999, we issued an
additional $18,750 aggregate principal amount of our 8 3/4% Convertible
Subordinated Notes due 2009 to the underwriters of this offering in connection
with their over-allotment option (net proceeds of approximately $18,000). In May
1999, we received net proceeds of approximately $190,000 from the issuance of
200,000 units, each consisting of $1 aggregate principal amount of our 14 1/2%
Senior Secured Notes due 2009 and three warrants, each to purchase 3.947 shares
of our Common Stock (as of September 30, 2000). The warrants are exercisable
through May 15, 2009 at an exercise price of $26.45 per share (as of September
30, 2000). We invested approximately $79,300 of these net proceeds in a
portfolio of U.S. government securities, which we pledged as security for
payment in full of interest on the 14 1/2% Senior Secured Notes due 2009 through
May 15, 2002. In November 1997, we received net proceeds of $116,000 from the
issuance of 12,910 units, each consisting of $20 aggregate principal amount at
maturity of our 15% Senior Secured Discount Notes due 2007 and a warrant to
purchase additional 15% Senior Secured Discount Notes due 2007 with an aggregate
principal amount at maturity of $3. All of these warrants were exercised in
1997. The aggregate value at maturity of our 15% Senior Secured Discount Notes
due 2007 is approximately $297,000. Our 15% Senior Secured Discount Notes due
2007 mature on December 1, 2007 and the first cash interest payment is due in
June 2003. The indentures governing our 14 1/2% Senior Secured Notes due 2009
and our 15% Senior Secured Discount Notes due 2007 contain limitations on our
ability to incur additional indebtedness and are secured by a pledge of the
stock of Satellite CD Radio Inc., our subsidiary that holds our FCC license. As
of September 30, 2000, we had acquired $62,914 of our 8 3/4% Convertible
Subordinated Notes due 2009 in exchange for shares of our Common Stock.

         In July 1998,  we entered  into a term loan  agreement  with a group of
financial  institutions  pursuant to which these lenders provided us $115,000 of
term  loans.  The  proceeds  of these  loans  were used to fund a portion of the
progress payments  required to be made by us under the Loral Satellite  Contract
for the purchase of launch services and to pay interest, fees and other expenses
related  to these  loans.  On  February  29,  2000,  we repaid  these  loans and
cancelled the related credit agreement.

         Loral has deferred a total of $50,000 of payments under the Loral
Satellite Contract originally scheduled for payment in 1999. These deferred
amounts bear interest at 10% per year and were originally due in quarterly
installments beginning in June 2002, however, the agreement governing these
deferred amounts provides that this date, and subsequent payment dates, will be
extended by the number of days that the achievement of any milestone under the
Loral Satellite Contract is delayed beyond the date set forth in the Loral
Satellite Contract. On November 1, 2000, we announced that our fourth, ground
spare, satellite is expected to be delivered to ground storage in August 2001.
This satellite was originally expected to be delivered to ground storage in
October 2000. As a result of Loral's delay in delivering this satellite, we do
not expect to make any required payments with respect to these deferred amounts
until April 2003, at the earliest. As collateral security for these deferred
payments, we have granted Loral a security interest in our ground repeater
network. If there is a satellite or launch failure, we will be required to pay
Loral the deferred amount related to the affected satellite no later than 120
days after the date of the failure.

         In June 2000, we entered into an agreement with Lehman Commercial Paper
Inc. ("Lehman") and Lehman Brothers Inc. pursuant to which Lehman agreed to
provide a term loan facility (the "Lehman Term Loan Facility") for us in the
aggregate principal amount of $150,000. The loans under the Lehman Term Loan
Facility will be made available to us upon the demonstration of our broadcast
system and upon satisfaction of certain customary conditions, and the proceeds
will be used for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate
purposes. In connection with the Lehman Term Loan Facility, we placed into
escrow, for the benefit of Lehman, 1,050,000 warrants, each to purchase one
share of our Common Stock. The first 525,000 of these warrants (the "First
Tranche Warrants") have an exercise price of $44.46 per share and the remaining
525,000 warrants (the "Second Tranche Warrants") have an exercise price of
$54.30 per share . We expect these warrants to be released from escrow and
become exercisable by Lehman when the loans under the Lehman Term Loan Facility
are made available to us. If we terminate the Lehman Term Loan Facility on or
prior to November 30, 2000, the First Tranche Warrants and one third of the
Second Tranche Warrants will be released from escrow and become exercisable by
Lehman.
