WASHINGTON, June 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- XM (Nasdaq: XMSR), the
nation's leading provider of satellite radio, today announced that XM radio
and its award-winning XM NavTraffic service will be available as a factory-
installed feature on all 2009 Porsche 911 models. This will be the first time
that XM is available in a Porsche sports car. XM is the exclusive satellite

XM radio has been available as a factory-installed feature for Cayenne
models since 2005, and will now expand availability on all 2009 Porsche 911
models offering drivers more than 170 channels of music, sports, news, talk
and entertainment coast-to-coast.

In addition to XM radio, the 911 will offer XM NavTraffic. Powered by
NAVTEQ, XM NavTraffic is the nation's leading real-time traffic service,
featuring comprehensive information and coast-to-coast updates every minute. With availability in 80 major North American markets, XM NavTraffic ensuresthat drivers have the most current and most detailed traffic and incident information at their fingertips, whether they're commuting or traveling.

"We are proud to partner with Porsche to make our award-winning XM
NavTraffic service available as a feature in the entire 2009 911 model range,"
said Steve Cook, executive vice president, automotive, XM Satellite Radio.
"The Porsche brand is known for its exceptional performance, and we're proud
to deliver our advanced audio entertainment and traffic technology to drivers
who expect nothing less."

"We are excited about offering XM Satellite Radio with the XM NavTraffic
option to our 911 customers. This will be a great addition to our new for 2009
Porsche Communication System 3.0," said David Pryor, vice-president of
marketing, Porsche Cars North America.

XM NavTraffic feeds data on incidents, such as accidents and road
construction, directly to a vehicle's GPS navigation system via XM's satellite
and ground network. The driver is alerted to these incidents through the
navigation screen, allowing him or her to route around a jam before getting
caught in traffic. Where available, XM NavTraffic provides real-time traffic
information by using red, yellow and green color codes to indicate high,
medium and low congestion levels.

All 2009 Porsche vehicles equipped with XM Radio and XM NavTraffic come
with a three-month complimentary subscription.
