ARTICLE II

PAYMENTS

Section 2.01 Royalty Payments. (a) WSI will pay to Stonehouse the Royalty Payment for each Royalty Calculation Year, as follows: (i) the Interim Payment will be due and payable to Stonehouse not later than the First Payment Date for such Royalty Calculation Year; and (ii) the full amount of the Royalty Payment, less the amount of the Interim Payment previously paid to Stonehouse, will be due and payable to Stonehouse on the Second Payment Date for such Royalty Calculation Year.

(b) WSI will establish and maintain a segregated reserve account (the “Royalty Reserve Account”) with a subaccount for each Royalty Calculation Year (each such subaccount a “Royalty Reserve Annual Account”). Within forty-five (45) days after the beginning of each quarter during each Royalty Calculation Year, WSI will deposit into the Royalty Reserve Annual Account for such Royalty Calculation Year an amount equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the Royalty Payment for such Royalty Calculation Year, as estimated in good faith by WSI on the basis of the best information then reasonably available; provided, that WSI will use its good faith and reasonable efforts to obtain, and provide to Stonehouse, information of detail and scope sufficient to make a meaningful estimate. If the estimated Royalty Payment for a Royalty Calculation Year changes from one quarter to the next, then the amount that WSI will deposit into the Royalty Reserve Annual Account during the quarter in which such estimate is changed will be adjusted to make up for the shortage (in the case of an increase in the estimate) or excess (in the case of a decrease in the estimate) in the amount or amounts deposited in such Royalty Reserve Annual Account in prior quarters of such Royalty Calculation Year. The amounts deposited in the Royalty Reserve Annual Account for any Royalty Calculation Year, together with the amount of any interest thereon, shall be applied toward the payment of WSI’s obligations under Section 2.01(a) due on the First Payment Date and/or the Second Payment Date for such Royalty Calculation Year, and (subject to the next sentence) the amounts contained in the Royalty Reserve Account or the Royalty Reserve Annual Account shall not be used for any other purpose without the prior written consent of Stonehouse (which consent shall be in the sole and absolute discretion of Stonehouse). Any balance remaining in the Royalty Reserve Annual Account for any Royalty Calculation Year after the Royalty Payment for such Royalty Calculation Year has been paid in full may be removed from the Royalty Reserve Account and applied as WSI determines to be appropriate, provided that, until the Term has ended, such application is in full compliance with all of the applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 4.03 hereof). The Royalty Reserve Account and the Royalty Reserve Annual Account each constitute “Deposit Accounts” within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code as may be in effect in New York from time to time (the “Code”). Each Deposit Account is subject to the “control” (as set forth in the Code) of Stonehouse for the Term, as such “control” has been agreed to by the WorldSpace Parties, Stonehouse, and the bank with which the Royalty Reserve Account and the Royalty Reserve Annual Account are maintained, in an authenticated record in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. Except to the extent Stonehouse may otherwise agree, funds in the Royalty Reserve Annual Account may only be invested in Permitted Investments.

Section 2.02 Scale-Down Fee. (a) If, during the Term, there is a transaction by an entity within the WorldSpace Enterprise that results in a sale of all or substantially all of the WorldSpace Parties’ assets (as they are reflected on the consolidated balance sheet of WSI at the Reference Date) or there is a liquidation of any of the WorldSpace Parties, and as a result of such transaction or liquidation subsequent Royalty Payments pursuant to Section 2.01 (or any other payments contemplated hereunder) are likely to be substantially reduced in the aggregate or terminated (a “Scale-Down Transaction”), then Stonehouse will be entitled, at its option, to receive a fee (the “Scale-Down Fee”) in lieu of future payments hereunder with respect to each of the WorldSpace Parties all or substantially all of the assets of which are being sold or which are being liquidated in such Scale-Down Transaction (each such WorldSpace Party with respect to which Stonehouse makes such an election is referred to herein as an “Eliminated WorldSpace Party”).

(b) In the event that Stonehouse elects to receive a Scale-Down Fee with respect to a Scale-Down Transaction, then WSI will pay to Stonehouse a Scale-Down Fee equal to sixty (60%) percent of the Proceeds Portion in such Scale-Down Transaction; provided, however, that such percentage will be reduced by ten (10%) percent thereof (i.e., from sixty percent (60%) to fifty-four percent (54%), then from fifty-four percent (54%) to forty-eight percent (48%), etc.) for each $50 million in payments actually made to Stonehouse theretofore under Section 2.01 and this Section 2.02. The receipt by Stonehouse of the Scale-Down Fee will not affect Stonehouse’s right to receive a Royalty Payment for the Royalty Calculation Year in which the Scale-Down Transaction occurs, and such Royalty Payment will be based upon a calculation of WorldSpace EBITDA that takes such Scale-Down Transaction into account in accordance with the definition of “WorldSpace EBITDA” in Section 1.01.

Section 2.03 Equalization Payment. Upon a sale or liquidation of the WorldSpace Enterprise at any time during the Term (whether by virtue of (a) sale of WorldSpace Parties and/or their Affiliates or (b) a sale of all or substantially all of the WSI assets, or (c) a bankruptcy or liquidation of WorldSpace Parties and/or their Affiliates or (d) a foreclosure on the WSI assets or the WorldSpace Parties by a WSI creditor), then to the extent that the total cumulative amount of Distributions received (including any Distributions received or to be received with respect to such sale or liquidation event) by Xxxx Xxxxxx (or any of his Affiliates or family members or other related parties) exceeds the cumulative amounts received (including amounts received or to be received with respect to such sale or liquidation event by Stonehouse under Sections 2.01 and 2.02 above), then Xxxx Xxxxxx will immediately pay Stonehouse a cash payment equal to one-half of such excess amount.

Section 2.04 Effectiveness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, none of the WorldSpace Parties will have any obligation pursuant to Sections 2.01 or 2.02 or Article IV, and Xxxx Xxxxxx will have no obligation pursuant to Section 2.03, and Stonehouse will have no rights under any of those provisions, unless and until the Effective Date occurs. Immediately upon the occurrence of the Effective Date, the WorldSpace Parties will make any and all payments and deposits that would have theretofore been required under Sections 2.01 and 2.02 and Article IV but for this Section 2.04.

Section 4.02 Audit.

Section 4.03 Distributions. (a) The WorldSpace Parties agree that Distributions may be paid only (i) with Excess Funds available at the end of a given Royalty Calculation Year (such given Royalty Calculation Year referred to herein as the “Distribution Calculation Year”, and the Royalty Calculation Year following the Distribution Calculation Year referred to herein as the “Distribution Payment Year”), (ii) on or after the Second Payment Date of the applicable Distribution Payment Year, and (iii) after the Royalty Payment due and payable on such Second Payment Date has been paid in full to Stonehouse.

(b) Additionally, in no event shall any Distribution be paid unless on the date of such payment, each of the following requirements has been satisfied:

i) no breach in any material respect of a representation or warranty in the New Loan Documentation (or in any respect if a materiality standard is not provided for such representation or warranty in the New Loan Documentation), default (or event which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, would become a default) under this Agreement or under any New Loan Documentation, has occurred and is continuing;

ii) all reserves required under any Transaction Document or New Loan Documentation are in place and at the required levels;

- 10 -

v) the payment of the Distribution is in all respects permitted under applicable law.

For purposes of this Section 4.04(b), fair value may be conclusively established by an opinion of an internationally recognized investment banking firm engaged by WSI; provided, that in the absence of such an opinion other evidence may be used to establish fair value; and provided further, that any sale of assets by any WorldSpace Parties to an unaffiliated third party in the ordinary course of business will be presumed to be for fair value absent clear evidence to the contrary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.04(b) will not restrict the WorldSpace Parties from placing assets into wholly or partially owned direct or indirect subsidiaries or from entering into joint venture or financing arrangements; provided, that none of the WorldSpace Parties will sell or transfer assets to affiliates or joint ventures in which the collective ownership interests of the WorldSpace Parties is less than one hundred percent (100%) unless such sale or transfer is made for fair value (which may include, without limitation, an equity interest in the transferee) and is consistent with Section 4.04(c) hereof; and provided further, that if any of the WorldSpace Parties makes such a sale or transfer of assets to any affiliate or joint venture in which the collective ownership interests of the WorldSpace Parties is less than one hundred percent (100%), then the WorldSpace Parties will be required hereby to dedicate the consideration received in exchange for such sale or transfer to the ongoing business of the WorldSpace Enterprise which may include, without limitation, holding any equity interest in the transferee that may be part of such consideration;

(c) Notwithstanding anything which may be contained to the contrary in this Section 4.04, in Section 2.02 or elsewhere, no sale or transfer of assets of the WorldSpace Enterprise is intended to be permitted hereunder to the extent such sale or transfer would be reasonably likely, as assessed at or immediately prior to the time of such sale of transfer, to materially diminish the overall return to Stonehouse (whether through Royalty Payments, Scale-Down Fees or other fees, or any combination of the same) under this Royalty Agreement during the Term.

Re:

Restructuring and Royalty Agreements

Dear Xxxx and Xxxxx:

You have asked for a more descriptive version of the Funding Expenditure Plan (see, Sections 1.01 and 3.01(i) of the Loan Restructuring Agreement and Section 4.05 of the Royalty Agreement), which describes and prescribes how WorldSpace, Inc. (the Company) shall apply proceeds of the of its new investment.

The Company is currently consuming cash at the rate of $3.5 million per month. The Funding Expenditure Plan projects an increase from the current spending rate to provide for re-directed and expanded staffing, sales and marketing, incremental capital expenditures and working capital management. The fixed cost component of this plan coincides with the Annual Operating Plan previously given to you on March 17, 2003. You should consider that plan as commencing at the time of funding.

Attached hereto is a revised breakdown of spending categories and amounts for each of the first three years of operations post-financing. A descriptive narrative is included to describe the purpose and nature of each spending category.

The Loan Restructuring Agreement requires minimum cumulative investment proceeds of at least $50,000,000 to activate the restructuring. The Funding Expenditure Plan forecasts total cash requirements in the amount of “*” from the day of funding to reach EBITDA profitability and positive cash flow. This plan requires cash expenditures of “*” in year 1, “*” in Year 2 and “*” in year 3.

If at least $50 million are raised in our current financing activity, but not the total required funds, management will reduce operating activities and focus initially on the India and China markets only, thereby deferring Europe and the Middle East. Capital

A. Summary of Use of Proceeds

WorldSpace requires approximately “*” in funding to rollout its services to Xxxxx, Xxxxx, Xxxxx 0 of European Mobile project, South Africa and the Middle East, of which approximately “*” is earmarked for rollout of European mobile. The primary uses for this raise consist of capital expenditures of “*”, working capital of “*”, and net operating expenses of “*”.

Subscriber Acquisition Costs (SAC)

Total subscriber acquisition costs (SAC) are projected to be “*”, including European mobile SAC expenditures estimated at “*”. The SAC have been estimated based on the typical spends that other service providers have made for rolling out different types of services (such as cellular or ISP) using India as a benchmark. In markets that WorldSpace is targeting, even competitive service providers, such as cellular, do not offer subsidies for handsets. The SAC are estimated at “*” per subscriber in Year 1, falling to “*” per subscriber in Year 2 and “*” per subscriber in Year 3.

Proprietary & Confidential

SAC is primarily in the form of advertising with minimal equipment and retailer subsidies envisioned. The SAC reduce to an average of about “*” per subscriber by Year 3 as the marketing and subscriber acquisition spend in the chosen rollout markets is spread over a faster ramp-up. It is also assumed that by this time WorldSpace would have created substantial awareness based on spending in the previous years. Such a reduction in SAC is normal for other similar services. However, we are cognizant of the fact that SAC costs for the service may vary from our projections, and we have done a sensitivity analysis around this and built in substantial cushion such that if SAC costs were to double, we would still break-even by Year 3 whilst requiring approximately “*” additional funding investment.

For our European mobile business, SAC do include both equipment subsidies and marketing costs. Equipment subsidies are estimated to be “*” per subscriber for OEM customers falling to “*” by Year 8. Equipment subsidies to non-OEM customers are estimated at “*” falling to “*” by Year 7. Marketing costs per gross addition are estimated at “*”. We are also projecting an OEM revenue share of “*” and a content partner revenue share of “*” of subscription revenues. Our SAC for European Mobile also includes certain fixed sales and marketing expenditure. We are providing for a communication and advertising budget to build brand awareness, projected at “*”through Year 3, “*”in Year 4, and “*”on an annual basis thereafter. This will allow advertising campaigns in France based on media support such as TV, print, and radio. Total SAC spend for European mobile business including fixed advertising costs and sales and marketing personnel through Year 3 is approximately “*”.

Customer Care

Total spend of customer care is estimated at “*”of which “*”is for European mobile rollout. Customer care is composed of subscription management at “*” per subscriber per year, and billing, collection and other customer care items at “*” of revenues. Total spend on customer care is expected to run at approximately “*” of revenues. Customer care for our European mobile business includes subscription management and billing and collection infrastructure and is estimated at “*” per subscriber.

Performance Rights

We expect to spend a total of “*” on performance rights and royalty payments to associations such as ASCAP/BMI. Music rights are expected to average “*”of revenues. These payments are a function of the location where the content is uplinked and will vary for the different markets. For example, our content for India is uplinked from Singapore, which has an extremely favourable environment. Music rights for our European mobile business are expected to average “*” of revenues.

We expect to spend approximately “*”through Year 3 on WorldSpace global branded content. A portion of our content will be produced locally in each region and we are budgeting for local content produced locally in each region and we are budgeting for local content production costs of “*”. Both the home audio and mobile service will use global and local content. Of the local spend of “*”, we expect to spend approximately “*” through Year 3 producing content specifically for Europe.

Fixed Costs

We project to spend approximately “*”on content as outlined above. WorldSpace employs approximately “*”globally, including “*” consultants. Salaries and benefits account for “*”in Year 1 rising to “*”in Year 3 as we expand our services to China, India, Europe and other markets. We expect to spend “*”on facilities and equipment including buildings, leases and other non-capitalized equipment. Our G&A spend is projected at “*”through Year 3 and includes outside services, insurance for the satellite, travel and other operating expenses. Of this “*”expenditure on G&A, we project to spend “*”for our G&A activities specifically directed towards our European mobile business. Our fixed costs excludes approximately “*” of fixed SAC costs for our European Mobile business which are accounted for above under the variable costs section.

We expect to spend a total of “*”on capital expenditures to breakeven in Year 3, of which “*” or “*” is directly attributed to the mobile service rollout. Research and development expenditures for mobile chip set development total “*”. A network of terrestrial repeaters will be built out in major cities requiring “*”capital expenditure in Year 2 and “*” in Year 3. Other general capital expenditure not specific to mobile service are estimated “*” and will be spent on uplink stations, music studios, SMS, renewals and replacements.

This total spend of “*” includes an expected spend of “*”for Phase 1 of our European mobile business. Research and development expenditures for mobile chip set development are almost “*” in total evenly split in Year 1 and Year 2. A network of terrestrial repeaters will be built out in France nation wide requiring “*” over Year 2 and Year 3. Other general capital expenditure specific to our Phase 1 rollout are estimated at “*” and will be spent on a feeder link station, studio digital platform, subsidies for receiver manufacturers investment and frequency migrating. WorldSpace has allocated approximately “*” for potential cost of migrating rural French xxxxxx to another frequency.

E. Working Capital

WorldSpace will require approximately “*” to fund working capital needs in the near future, including about “*” for receiver financing. This expenditure will enable us to produce “*” receivers, which should be sufficient to stimulate the supply chain and ensure a steady flow of receivers into our various markets. We also require about “*” for account payables, primarily towards Alcatel to whom we owe approximately “*” on F3 and F4. The remaining “*” will go towards payment of an Alternative Minimum Tax (which may result from the cancellation of our Stonehouse debt) and other receivable financing.

EXHIBIT C

DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEDURES

1. Agreement to Dispute Resolution Procedures

Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to the Royalty Agreement to which this Exhibit C is attached and made a part (the “Agreement”), or the performance, breach, validity, interpretation, application, or termination thereof (“Dispute”), shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures specified in this Exhibit C, which shall be the sole and exclusive procedures for the resolution of any such Dispute. As used herein, “party” shall refer either to Stonehouse or to the WorldSpace Parties (as such parties are defined in the Agreement).

2. Good Faith Negotiation

In the event of any Dispute, the parties shall first attempt in good faith to resolve such Dispute promptly by negotiation between representatives who have authority to settle the Dispute. Any party may give the other party written notice of any Dispute not resolved in the normal course of business. Within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the notice, the receiving party shall submit to the other a written response. The notice and the response shall each include (a) a statement of the party’s position and a general summary of arguments supporting that position, and (b) the name and title of the person(s) who will represent that party in the negotiations. Within thirty (30) days after delivery of the notice of Dispute, the representatives of the parties shall meet at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary, to attempt to resolve the Dispute. All reasonable requests for information made by one party to the other will be honored; however, no party is required to provide confidential, trade secret, proprietary, or privileged information.

All negotiations pursuant to this clause are confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of applicable rules of evidence.

If a party refuses to negotiate as provided herein, any other party may immediately initiate arbitration as provided in Section 4 below.

3. Mediation After Negotiation

If any Dispute has not been resolved by negotiation as set forth above within forty-five (45) days of delivery of the notice of Dispute, or if the parties failed to meet within thirty (30) days of delivery of the notice of Dispute (the “Negotiating Period”), the parties shall endeavor to settle the Dispute by good faith mediation. Upon the expiration of the Negotiating Period, any party may give written notice of mediation. The parties shall attempt to agree upon a qualified, neutral individual who shall serve as mediator. If the parties fail to agree upon a mediator within fifteen (15) days of delivery of the notice of mediation, the mediator will be appointed by the American Arbitration Association’s International Centre for Dispute Resolution (“AAA”) from its roster of neutral mediators.

The mediation shall occur in New York City, New York, USA within thirty (30) days after appointment of a mediator, or at such other time and place as the parties may agree. Any Dispute which remains unresolved forty-five (45) days after appointment of a mediator shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with Section 4 below.

If a party refuses to participate in the mediation process as provided herein, any other party may immediately initiate arbitration as provided in Section 4 below.

Unless otherwise agreed by the parties or ordered by the arbitrator in a subsequent arbitral proceeding as provided herein, the parties shall bear the cost of the mediation equally between them.

In the event that any party fails or refuses to participate in mediation in good faith as provided herein, the arbitrator in any subsequent arbitration is authorized to determine whether the failure to participate in the mediation was due to the bad faith of a party, and if so may award to the other party or parties all costs associated with the mediation efforts, including attorneys’ fees and costs, mediator’s fees, and administrative fees, if any.

Other than with respect to its occurrence or the failure to occur, the mediation is in all respects confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of applicable rules of evidence.

The mediator may not serve as an arbitrator in any subsequent arbitration proceedings concerning the Dispute.

4. Agreement to Arbitrate

Any Dispute which has not been resolved by a non-binding procedure as provided herein within ninety (90) days of the initiation of such procedure shall be finally resolved by arbitration administered by the AAA under its International Arbitration Rules in effect as of the date of the Agreement (“AAA International Rules”), and judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

5. Selection and Appointment of Arbitrator

The Dispute shall be heard and determined by a sole arbitrator, who shall be qualified by education, training, and experience to hear and determine matters in the nature of the Dispute (the “Arbitrator”).

The parties shall attempt to agree upon a qualified individual to serve as Arbitrator. If the parties are unable to so agree within thirty (30) days of the response to the notice of arbitration, then the Arbitrator shall be selected and appointed in accordance with the AAA International Rules.

Should the Arbitrator die, resign, refuse to act, or become incapable of performing his or her functions as the Arbitrator, the AAA may declare a vacancy. The vacancy shall be filled by the method by which the Arbitrator was originally appointed.

The Arbitrator shall be bound by and shall follow the then current American Bar Association/AAA Rules of Ethics for Arbitrators.

6. Seat and Language of Arbitral Proceedings

The language of the arbitration shall be English.

The seat of the arbitration shall be New York City, New York, USA. Upon agreement of the parties and the Arbitrator, pre-hearing conferences may be held in other locations; however, the seat of the arbitration will be deemed to remain unchanged and any awards or orders will be deemed to have been made at the seat of the arbitration.

7. Governing Law

The Arbitrator shall determine the matters at issue in the Dispute in accordance with the substantive law of New York, USA.

The arbitration proceedings shall be governed by the Agreement, the AAA International Rules, and by the procedural arbitration law of the site of the arbitration, and by the United Nations Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards.

The Arbitrator shall decide the issues submitted as an arbitrator at law only and shall base his/her award, and any interim awards, upon the terms of the Agreement and the laws of New York, USA. The Arbitrator is not empowered to and shall not act as amiable compositeur or ex aequo et xxxx.

8. Pre-Hearing Procedure and Disposition

At the request of a party, the Arbitrator may take such interim measures and make such interim orders as it deems necessary, including measures for the preservation of assets, the conservation of goods, or the sale of perishable goods. The Arbitrator may require appropriate security as a condition of ordering such measures.

At any time after the Arbitrator is appointed and upon motion of any party, the Arbitrator shall hear and determine any preliminary issue of law asserted by a party to be dispositive, in whole or in part, of any claim or defense, pursuant to such procedures as the Arbitrator deems appropriate.

At any time after the Arbitrator is appointed and upon motion of any party, the Arbitrator may summarily determine and dismiss, in whole or in part, any claim or issue in dispute (a) if the party asserting it has failed to state a claim as a matter of law, or (b) if the pleadings and evidence show that no genuine issue of material fact exists with respect to any element of the claim or defense and that the moving party is entitled to disposition of the claim or defense as a matter of law.

If the Arbitrator deems it appropriate, keeping in mind the expedited and efficient nature of arbitration, the arbitral proceedings may be bifurcated according to claims or issues, and claims or issues may be heard and determined separately as may be appropriate.

9. Document Disclosures

Pursuant to a schedule to be established by the Arbitrator, the parties shall exchange those documents upon which the producing party may rely in support of any claim or defense. The parties may further exchange documents in response to written requests for disclosure of non-privileged documents directly relevant to the determination of the issues presented for determination by the Arbitrator. Any Dispute regarding such requests for disclosure or the adequacy of any party’s disclosures shall be determined by the Arbitrator consistent with the expedited nature of arbitration.

The Arbitrator shall take into account applicable principles of legal privilege and related protections, such as those involving the confidentiality of communications between a lawyer and a client and the work product of a lawyer, and no party or witness may be required to waive any privilege recognized at law. The Arbitrator shall issue orders as reasonably necessary to protect the confidentiality of proprietary information, trade secrets, and other sensitive information disclosed.

10. Awards and Relief

All awards shall be in writing and shall state the reasoning upon which the award rests. Any award shall be made and signed by the Arbitrator.

The Arbitrator is expressly empowered to grant any remedy or relief not expressly prohibited herein available under the applicable law, including but not limited to specific performance of the contract to the extent allowed by law, declaration of the validity, meaning, and effect of the contract and the rights or duties of the parties thereunder, and, to the extent allowed by law, prohibiting or mandating actions by a party with respect to the performance of the contract or matters arising out of or in connection therewith.

In his/her award, the Arbitrator may apportion the costs of arbitration between or among the parties in such manner as it deems reasonable, taking into account the circumstances of the case, the conduct of the parties during the proceedings, and the result of the arbitration, including requiring one party to bear all or the majority of such costs.

Unless otherwise ordered by the Arbitrator as part of his/her award, each party shall bear its own costs and expenses; and the costs of arbitration, including the fees and expenses of the Arbitrator and of any expert or other assistance engaged by the Arbitrator, shall be borne by the parties to the arbitration in equal shares.

11. Failure to Participate or to Pay Advances of Costs and Fees

The failure or refusal of any party, having been given due notice thereof, to participate at any stage of the dispute resolution proceedings shall not prevent the proceedings from continuing, nor shall such failure or refusal impair the validity of the award or cause the award to be void or voidable, nor shall it be a basis for challenge of the validity or enforceability of the award or of the arbitration proceedings.

If any party fails to timely pay an advance on fees and costs ordered by the Arbitrator or the AAA within twenty (20) days after the date set for such deposit, that party shall be deemed to be in default. The Arbitrator and/or the AAA shall then determine whether the funds on deposit are sufficient to satisfy the anticipated estimated expenses for the proceeding to continue on an expedited basis without the participation of the defaulting party. If so, the proceeding will continue without the participation of the defaulting party, and the Arbitrator may enter an award on default. Prior to entering an award on default, the Arbitrator shall require the non-defaulting party to produce such evidence and legal argument in support of its contentions as the Arbitrator may deem appropriate. The Arbitrator may receive such evidence and argument without the defaulting party’s presence or participation. If the funds on deposit are deemed insufficient to satisfy the estimated costs of continuing as provided herein, the non-defaulting party may make all or part of the requested deposit in an amount sufficient to allow the proceeding to continue without the participation of the defaulting party. If the non-defaulting party chooses not to make the requested deposit, the Arbitrator may suspend or terminate the proceedings.

12. Adherence to Time Limits

In accepting appointment, the Arbitrator shall commit that his/her schedule permits him/her to devote the reasonably necessary time and attention to the arbitration proceedings and to resolving the Dispute within the time periods set by the Agreement and by the AAA International Rules.

Any time limits set forth in this Dispute resolution agreement or in the AAA International Rules may be modified upon written agreement of the parties and the Arbitrator or by order of the Arbitrator.

Any failure of the Arbitrator to satisfy such time limits or to render a final award within the time specified shall not impair the validity of the award or cause the award to be void or voidable, nor shall it be a basis for challenge of the validity or enforceability of the award or of the arbitration proceedings.

13. Interim Measures from the Courts in Aid of Arbitration

At any time after submission of a written notice of Dispute, any party may request a court of competent jurisdiction to grant interim measures of protection: (a) to preserve the status quo pending resolution of the Dispute; (b) to prevent the destruction of documents and other information or things related to the Dispute; (c) to prevent the transfer, dissipation, or hiding of assets; and/or (d) to aid the arbitral proceedings and the award. A request for such interim measures to a judicial authority shall not be deemed incompatible with or a waiver of a party’s right to arbitrate a Dispute.

The parties agree that a court at the seat of the arbitration at the request of a party, or the Arbitrator with the consent of all parties, may consolidate two or more arbitral proceedings among the parties to the Agreement if there exist common questions of law or fact.

14. Confidentiality

Unless the parties agree otherwise, the parties, the Arbitrator, and the AAA shall treat the dispute resolution proceedings provided for herein, any related disclosures, and the decisions of the Arbitrator, as confidential, except in connection with judicial proceedings ancillary to the dispute resolution proceedings, such as a judicial challenge to, or enforcement of, the arbitral award, and unless otherwise required by law to protect a legal right of a party.

15. Survival and Severability

The terms of this Exhibit C shall survive the termination or expiration of the Agreement.

If any provision of this agreement shall be unenforceable, invalid, or unlawful in any respect, then such provision shall be deemed severable from the remaining provisions and the enforceability, validity, and lawfulness of the remaining provisions will not be impaired.

Since WorldSpace provides data or multimedia content delivery in addition to audio programming, it is unique in its comparison to XM and Sirius. For pure data and multimedia delivery services, WorldSpace shares a common market segment with other satellite technology companies such as EuroSat and PanAmSat. Again, WorldSpace is differentiated from other players in the data satellite delivery market because it also broadcasts premium audio content.

Product Capabilities

WorldSpace audio and multimedia content distribution to both home/office fixed receivers and mobile receivers.

Audio

WorldSpace digital satellite audio broadcasting provides extremely clear reception throughout a vast coverage area. Listeners equipped with a simple receiver (similar to a traditional radio, with the addition of a 4 inch diameter antenna) can tune in to WorldSpace audio broadcasts anywhere in the coverage area.

Multimedia

In addition, WorldSpace provides data and multimedia transmission capabilities. Clients can deliver data in many different formats, including web content and slide show presentations, to multiple receiving sites anywhere within the WorldSpace coverage area. To receive data or multimedia content, receiver sites simply need a PC Adaptor, small enough to fit in the palm of a

hand. The PC Adaptor acts as an antenna, enabling the user to receive digital multimedia content directly to their personal computer.

Encryption

Any audio or multimedia delivery can be encrypted, depending on the needs of a client or target audience. The WorldSpace proprietary encryption capability provides secure content delivery through encryption of information through both the uplink and receiving stages. This security mechanism is quite user friendly; clients simply enter a code either directly into their audio receiver or use an allocated a password to unlock encrypted data delivery.

Compelling Consumer Content

In addition to the delivery capabilities of the WorldSpace system, the company also produces its own, and partners with other broadcasters to produce their own, radio programming. Boasting top radio talent and best of breed partners, the company broadcasts a variety of global, regional, and local news, information, and music. From international jazz favorites produced by WorldSpace on its “Riff” channel to global news and entertainment provided by National Public Radio, the company provides a diverse range of quality programming to its listening audience.

Product Road Map

WorldSpace continues to work with key manufacturing partners to develop receivers that will lead the consumer electronics market into the future. Currently, a wide range of individual, home, and office receivers are marketed. Hardware on the market today ranges from portable, durable individual units specially suited to meet the needs of travelers, military, and harsh rural conditions to boom-box type units with CD, AM, and FM features designed to interest the younger, electronics savvy consumer. Moving into the future, WorldSpace is working with its priority manufacturing partners :o release second and third generation products with newer, more efficient chipsets and enhanced product features and functions.

Launch of Mobile Service

Additionally, WorldSpace is working with its core manufacturing and technology partners to enter the mobile, or in-car satellite radio market. XM and Sirius have paved the way, introducing satellite radio as an in-car product in the United States. WorldSpace intends to launch the first ever in-car satellite radio service in Europe, Africa, India, and South East Asia. The company and its partners have implemented an “early-entry” market penetration plan to introduce in-car mobile units beginning in 2003. The company successfully demonstrated mobile in-car satellite radio in 2002 in France, Germany, South Africa, and India. These demonstrations met with widespread success in the investment, press, automobile manufacturer, electronics, and broadcast communities.
