163888, nah don’t worry, like I said, I wasn’t upset about it – start getting upset by things you read on the interweb is a sure way to drive yourself nuts! Just wanted to clear the air. And your point about the timing of an announcement for debt restructuring and the CC is valid, but nothing about this stock makes sense so who knows what will happen. It wouldn’t surprise me to see them file for an extension on the 10K to kick that can further down the road as well and we hear nothing!

Sirius XM: Media's Fear-Mongering Has Gone on Long Enough http://seekingalpha.com/article/122221-sirius-xm-media-s-fear-mongering-has-gone-on-long-enough?source=feed#comment-402248 402248 Tue, 24 Feb 2009 20:50:02 -0500 Sirius XM: Media's Fear-Mongering Has Gone on Long Enough http://seekingalpha.com/article/122221-sirius-xm-media-s-fear-mongering-has-gone-on-long-enough?source=feed#comment-402244 402244
The first link I put above WAS from Revision 33-8644 (the latest TMK). It clearly states the last day of Q2 and does not qualify it as being for a transition period. There were specific roll-in phases to handle the transition so there is not need for a one-time “last day of Q2 rule.” The EOY statement is confusing because it leads you to believe that it means meeting market cap as of EOY. That is NOT what it means – what it means is that the DETERMINATION of Accelerated Filer status need only be made at EOY (not whether or not you are an Accelerated Filer). The determination for Accelerated Filer status is in Section III of 33-8644 (the first bulleted point in the paragraph) – I’ll paste it here again:

www.sec.gov/rules/fina...
“Create a new category of accelerated filer, the “large accelerated filer,” that encompasses an issuer after it first has an aggregate worldwide market value of voting and non-voting common equity held by non-affiliates of the issuer of $700 million or more, as of the last business day of the issuer’s most recently completed second fiscal quarter”

Let me see if I can make it clearer with this example. It is for Accelerated Filer, but Large Accelerated filer should be the same. It is from Question 130.04 in an SEC quidance document intended to help interpret the Exchange Act rules.

sec.gov/divisions/corp...
Question 130.04: A longtime Exchange Act reporting company with a fiscal year ending December 31, 2008 is not an accelerated filer for filings due in fiscal year 2008 and is also eligible to use the requirements for smaller reporting companies for its annual and quarterly reports for fiscal year 2008. As of the last business day of its second fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2008, the company determined that its public float exceeded $75 million, which means that it must start using the larger reporting company requirements in fiscal year 2009, starting with its first quarter Form 10-Q. As permitted by Item 10(f)(2)(i) of Regulation S-K, the company’s last periodic report using the smaller reporting company requirements will be its Form 10-K for fiscal year 2008. Does this mean that the smaller reporting company remains a non-accelerated filer as of the end of the fiscal year with respect to that Form 10-K and future reports because one condition to meet in order to be an accelerated filer or a large accelerated filer is that the issuer “is not eligible to use the requirements for smaller reporting companies in Part 229 of this chapter for its annual and quarterly reports”? See Exchange Act Rules 12b-2(1)(iv) and 12b-2(2)(iv).

Answer: No. When the Commission adopted the smaller reporting company requirements in 2007, it did not also change the manner in which a company transitions to accelerated filer status. A company’s accelerated filer status is determined as of the end of its fiscal year. As of that date, the company will meet the condition in the “accelerated filer” definition that its public float on the last business day of its second fiscal quarter exceed $75 million. In contrast, the determination date for smaller reporting company status is the last business day of the second fiscal quarter. On that date, a larger reporting company that determines it is a smaller reporting company is permitted to transition to the smaller reporting requirements for that quarter's Form 10-Q. “A smaller reporting company required to transition to the larger reporting system after its determination date calculation will not be required to satisfy the larger reporting company disclosure requirements until the first quarter after the determination date fiscal year.” Release No. 33-8876. The fact that the transition period for a company moving to the larger reporting system includes the end of the fiscal year does not mean that the company, as of the end of the fiscal year, is “eligible to use the requirements for smaller reporting companies” for purposes of Exchange Act Rules 12b-2(1)(iv) and 12b-2(2)(iv).

www.sec.gov/rules/fina... (creating of the Large Accelerated Filer)
Create a new category of accelerated filer, the “large accelerated filer,” that encompasses an issuer after it first has an aggregate worldwide market value26 of voting and non-voting common equity held by non-affiliates of the issuer of $700 million or more, as of the last business day of the issuer’s most recently completed second fiscal quarter;

also,

www.sec.gov/rules/fina...
As proposed, once a company becomes an accelerated filer, it remains an accelerated filer subject to shortened deadlines unless and until it subsequently becomes eligible to use Forms 10-KSB and 10-QSB for its annual and quarterly reports.

"I believe they have until the EOM, which is on the weekend, so next business day. Mel said in the Dec CC that we would know all by March 1, which is also on the weekend so my best guess is that we'll hear something next Monday (March 2) and no sooner. He also said that they will be dealing with the debt issues "forthwith" and we didn't hear a word until the day the debt was due 2 months later, so you can assume that we will be the last people to know the Q4 results!

Even there I don't say when we will hear Q4 results (just my opinion on when we will hear ANYTHING), as I have no idea when that will be.

As to the post on Sirusbuzz, it was actually just a question as I have no personal knowledge of the escrow agreements with the NFL and MLB. I was just postulating that an escrow account is typically setup for the payment of a specific debt and wouldn't the currently due payments draw from these accounts. It was later clarified that the MLB account at least was set up for the last two years of the deal an not for payments due in the interim. A bad deal IMO, but who knows what the circumstances where when the agreement was reached? In any case, it would seem to behoove the MLB to allow some latitude in the agreement to let Sirius access this account now - isn't $60 mil now with an agreement to replenish the escrow in the future better than what they would receive in bankruptcy?

Furthermore, as a business Sirius should certainly be accruing money for these payments so that they are not unexpected hits to COH. That also was a point that I disagree with Homer on although I may not have stated it clearly. We will definitely know more as early as tomorrow morning so let's hope for the best. My position is that Sirius could handle the Feb debt without help if absolutely necessary so I'm hoping that much of what we're hearing is using that fact to leverage make the deals that are now being negotiated best for the company . . . and eventually to us lowly shareholders!

Furthermore, as a business Sirius should certainly be accruing money for these payments so that they are not unexpected hits to COH. That also was a point that I disagree with Homer on although I may not have stated it clearly. We will definitely know more as early as tomorrow morning so let's hope for the best. My position is that Sirius could handle the Feb debt without help if absolutely necessary so I'm hoping that much of what we're hearing is using that fact to leverage make the deals that are now being negotiated best for the company . . . and eventually to us lowly shareholders!

Now, that being said there may still be an option to reconfigure existing satellites (either Sirius's or XM's) to transmit BOTH signals, not somehow allow existing XM receivers to accept Sirius signal through a magical firmware update. I think this was the point of that link to the patent about sending an alternate signal on a single transmitter. I am by far not technically able to figure out how possible this is, but it would satisfy the obligation to support the existing XM receivers and open the door to either BK XM or sell off it's assets. ]]>
