Dear Fellow Stockholders:

2022 marked another successful year for our company: maintaining strong profitability, delivering incredible must-hear moments to our listeners, and retaining our position as the #1 premium audio service in North America. It also marked an important moment in the history of our Company, as we embarked on the evolutionary journey that is our top priority in the year ahead: building the next generation of SiriusXM.

In addition, we advanced our Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) strategy. This includes improving our products and services while being efficient and environmentally conscious, providing an engaging environment where our employees can thrive, and serving as a platform for diverse perspectives. In 2023, we will continue to refine our ESG strategy and work, and provide updates on each of these priorities moving forward.

Growth Priorities

We remain committed to our three strategic priorities – to own the car, expand streaming, and maintain leadership in ad-supported audio. Underpinning all three of our priorities is our focus on giving listeners the best experience everywhere they tune in.

Own the Car

We continue to be the leader in the car, and are constantly working to evolve our business with new in-vehicle features and capabilities. Our penetration rates in both new and used vehicle sales remained strong, 83% and 53%, respectively, at the close of the year, with our enabled fleet now over 150 million vehicles. Additionally, we’ve expanded our 360L footprint, now with over seven million 360L-enabled cars across 20 automotive brands following the additions of Jaguar, Land Rover, Lamborghini and Nissan vehicles in 2022.

Our easy-to-use and superior in-car user experience has always been a differentiator for SiriusXM, and it remains critical to our business as we look toward the exciting work to come in the year ahead. Just as cars today look radically different from how they did even just a few years ago, we are committed to driving a consumer-first look and feel for our listeners that is innovative and fresh.

Expand Streaming

Alongside our in-car innovations, we are focused on expanding streaming – a key growth driver of our business – with offerings built for people, not devices, and providing our subscribers with the best experience everywhere they tune in. In 2023, we are laying the groundwork for the next generation of SiriusXM, investing in a revamped consumer experience and a new technology infrastructure. These systems will be built to scale, bring further innovation to 360L, and will allow us to be more agile and dynamic both in and out of the car. And ultimately, they will allow us to launch a reimagined SiriusXM experience in late 2023, one that takes the ease and connection we have in-car and extends it everywhere our subscribers go while inviting new listeners in as our standalone streaming business grows.

Ad Leadership

Through SXM Media, our combined advertising sales group across SiriusXM, Pandora, and podcasts, and our ad-tech group, AdsWizz, we are well positioned to deliver results for advertisers looking to tap into the power of audio. Within podcasting specifically, we are a top player, representing five of the top 20 shows in Edison Research’s podcast rankings, the most of any network. Additionally, in 2022 we rolled out new audience-based podcast products, which help to provide greater efficiency through automation – which is still nascent in podcasting – and to welcome new advertisers. Across our ad platform, we realized $1.77B in revenue in 2022, and are excited by the ongoing growth and monetization opportunities within podcasting.

An Elite Lineup of Top Brands and On-Air Talent for All Segments

At our core, our value proposition to listeners remains the same: we fuel fandom, giving our listeners the content that moves them, from sports and music to talk and podcasts. Our incredible slate of talent and programming is truly unparalleled, and over the past year, has only continued to grow. We are home to the biggest artists with exclusive music channels, such as Drake’s Sound 42 and Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Radio. Our hosts, including Howard Stern, Gayle King, Conan O’Brien, Tinx, Kevin Hart, Andy Cohen, and

many more, create emotionally engaging experiences that are habit-forming for our listeners, with must-hear moments happening on our air every day that they can’t get anywhere else. And we offer the most diverse and comprehensive line-up of exclusive sports, comedy, politics and news channels in audio.

For creators, we offer a unique platform to share their authentic voices and stories; for listeners, we offer exclusive access to the voices of their generation. Whether it’s live on our air, streaming on Pandora, on demand with podcasts, or even at one of the 300+ events we produced in 2022, we are driving listening everywhere fans tune in, and loyalty within our subscriber base.

2023 is a critical moment in our history, and we believe we are taking the necessary steps to future-proof this organization for its next era. We continue to be focused on maintaining and building our business in profitable ways. Our three growth priorities remain at the core of our strategy, and are evolving with our business. We are doubling-down on our existing talent and programming, and are finding new ways to do more with our brands. We have organized our business to become more agile and efficient to allow us to effectively focus all our resources toward our key priorities and goals for the year. And while we remain disciplined in our spending, we are laser-focused on our vision to shape the future of audio where everyone is effortlessly connected to the voices, stories, and music they love.

On behalf of the Board, employees and talent at SiriusXM, we want to thank you for your continued support for and commitment to the Company. We are excited about the opportunities ahead, and look forward to keeping you updated on our progress.

Sincerely,

Chief Executive Officer
SiriusXM

Proxy Statement

This proxy statement contains information related to the annual meeting of stockholders of Sirius XM Holdings Inc. (the “Company,” “SiriusXM,” “we,” “us” or “our”) to be held virtually on Thursday, June 1, 2023, beginning at 8:30 a.m. EDT, at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/SIRI2023, and at any adjournments or postponements thereof. This proxy statement is first being distributed or made available, as the case may be, to stockholders on or about April 21, 2023.

About the Meeting

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE ANNUAL MEETING?

At our annual meeting, stockholders will act upon the following matters outlined in the Notice of 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, including:

●	Item 1—the election of thirteen director nominees to our board (David A. Blau, Eddy W. Hartenstein, Robin P. Hickenlooper, James P. Holden, Gregory B. Maffei, Evan D. Malone, James E. Meyer, Jonelle Procope, Michael Rapino, Kristina M. Salen, Carl E. Vogel, Jennifer C. Witz and David M. Zaslav);

●	Item 2—to approve, in a non-binding, advisory vote, the compensation paid to our named executive officers;

●	Item 3—to determine, in a non-binding, advisory vote, whether a stockholder vote to approve the compensation paid to our named executive officers should occur every one, two or three years;

●	Item 4—the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accountants for 2023; and

●	such other business that may properly be conducted at the annual meeting or any adjournments or postponements thereof.

At the annual meeting, management will also report on our performance and respond to appropriate questions from stockholders. On April 6, 2023 (the “Record Date”), 3,875,157,686 shares of our common stock were outstanding.

WHAT ARE THE VOTING RIGHTS OF THE HOLDERS OF OUR COMMON STOCK?

Each holder of our common stock is entitled to one vote per share of common stock on all matters to be acted upon at the annual meeting.

WHAT VOTE IS REQUIRED TO APPROVE EACH ITEM?

Assuming the presence of a quorum, the directors will be elected by the holders of a plurality of the voting power of our common stock present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote. This means that the thirteen director nominees who receive the most votes cast by the holders of shares of our

common stock will be elected. You may vote “For” or “Withhold” with respect to each nominee. Votes that are withheld will be excluded entirely from the vote with respect to the nominee from whom they are withheld. Votes that are withheld and broker non-votes (as described below) will not have any effect on the outcome of the election of the directors because directors are elected by plurality voting, but votes that are withheld and shares represented by broker non-votes that are present and entitled to vote at the annual meeting will be counted for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present at the annual meeting.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

PROXY STATEMENT ● ABOUT THE MEETING

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of our common stock, present in person or represented by proxy, and entitled to vote on the matter is required for Item 2 (the approval of, in a non-binding, advisory vote, the compensation paid to our named executive officers), Item 3 (the determination, in a non-binding, advisory vote, whether a stockholder vote to approve the compensation paid to our named executive officers should occur every one, two or three years) and Item 4 (the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accountants for 2023). You may vote “For,” “Against” or “Abstain” with respect to Items 2 and 4. You may vote “One Year,” “Two Years,” “Three Years” or “Abstain” with respect to Item 3. For Items 2, 3 and 4, an “Abstain” vote will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal, and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of these proposals. There will be no broker non-votes with respect to Item 4, as brokers may vote shares with respect to this proposal in the absence of client instructions. Items 2, 3 and 4 are not binding on our board of directors or the Company.

WHEN WILL VOTING RESULTS BE AVAILABLE?

We will announce preliminary voting results at the annual meeting. We will report final results in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) within four business days after the annual meeting.

WHY IS THE ANNUAL MEETING BEING WEBCAST ONLINE?

The annual meeting will be a virtual meeting of stockholders held via a live audio webcast. We believe that a virtual meeting increases stockholder accessibility, while improving meeting efficiency and reducing costs. The virtual meeting will provide the same rights and advantages as a physical meeting. Stockholders will be able to present questions online during the meeting through www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/SIRI2023, providing our stockholders with the opportunity for meaningful engagement with the Company. In addition, stockholders will be permitted to submit a question one week in advance of the meeting at www.proxyvote.com after logging in with your 16-digit Control Number.

HOW DO I PARTICIPATE IN THE VIRTUAL MEETING?

Our annual meeting will be a completely virtual meeting of stockholders, which will be conducted exclusively by live audio webcast. No physical in-person meeting will be held.

The online meeting will begin promptly at 8:30 a.m. EDT. We encourage you to access the meeting prior to the start time leaving ample time for the check in. To participate in the meeting, you must have your 16-digit Control Number that is shown on your Notice or, if you received a printed copy of the proxy materials, on your proxy card or the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials. You may access the annual meeting online, vote and submit your questions during the meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/SIRI2023.

Stockholders will be able to submit questions during the meeting by typing in your question into the “ask a question” box on the meeting page. If you lose your 16-digit Control Number, you may join the annual meeting as a “guest” but you will not be able to vote, ask questions or access the list of stockholders as of the close of business on the Record Date.

WILL I BE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE VIRTUAL MEETING ON THE SAME BASIS AS I WOULD BE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN A LIVE MEETING?

The virtual meeting format for the annual meeting will enable full and equal participation by all of our stockholders from any place in the world at little to no cost.

The format of the virtual meeting has been designed to ensure that our stockholders who attend our annual meeting will be afforded the same rights and opportunities to participate as they would at an in-person meeting and to enhance stockholder access, participation and communication through online tools. We will take the following steps to ensure such an experience:

●	providing stockholders with the ability to submit appropriate questions, one week in advance of the meeting, to ensure thoughtful responses;

●	providing stockholders with the ability to submit appropriate questions real-time via the meeting website, limiting questions to one per stockholder unless time otherwise permits; and

●	answering as many questions submitted in accordance with the meeting rules of conduct as possible in the time allotted for the meeting without discrimination.

Questions pertinent to meeting matters will be answered during the meeting, subject to time constraints. Questions regarding personal matters, including those related to employment or service issues, are not pertinent to meeting matters and therefore will not be answered.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

PROXY STATEMENT ● ABOUT THE MEETING

WHAT IF DURING THE CHECK-IN TIME OR DURING THE MEETING I HAVE TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES OR TROUBLE ACCESSING THE VIRTUAL MEETING WEBSITE?

If you encounter any technical difficulties when accessing or using the annual meeting website, please call the technical support number that will be posted on the annual meeting website login page. If there are any technical issues in convening or hosting the meeting, we will post information to our website, including information on when the meeting will be reconvened.

WHAT CONSTITUTES A QUORUM?

The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the aggregate voting power of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote at the annual meeting is necessary to constitute a quorum to transact business at the annual meeting. If a quorum is not present or represented at the annual meeting, the stockholders entitled to vote, present in person or represented by proxy, may adjourn the annual meeting from time to time without notice or other announcement until a quorum is present or represented. Your shares will be counted towards the quorum if you vote by mail, by telephone or through the Internet (either before or during the annual meeting). Abstentions and shares represented by broker non-votes that are present and entitled to vote are also counted as present for purposes of determining a quorum.

WHAT IS A BROKER NON-VOTE?

A broker non-vote occurs if you hold shares in “street name” (that is, your shares are held on your behalf by a bank, broker or other nominee) and do not provide voting instructions to your broker on a proposal and your broker does not have the discretionary authority to vote on such proposal. A broker is entitled to vote shares held for a beneficial holder on routine matters, such as Item 4 (the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accountants for 2023), without instructions from the beneficial holder of those shares. On the other hand, absent instructions from the beneficial holders of such shares, a broker will not be entitled to vote shares held for a beneficial holder on non-routine items, such as Item 1 (the election of directors), Item 2 (the approval of, in a non-binding, advisory vote, the compensation paid to our named executive officers) and Item 3 (the determination, in a non-binding, advisory vote, whether a stockholder vote to approve the compensation paid to our named executive officers should occur every one, two or three years).

It is therefore important that you provide instructions to your broker if your shares are held by a broker so that your votes are counted.

Broker non-votes that are present and entitled to vote will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present to hold the annual meeting.

WHAT IF I DON’T VOTE ELECTRONICALLY OR RETURN MY PROXY CARD AND DON’T ATTEND THE ANNUAL MEETING?

If you are a holder of record (that is, your shares are registered in your own name with our transfer agent) and you don’t vote your shares, your shares will not be voted.

If you are a beneficial owner (that is, you hold your shares through your broker, bank or other nominee) and you do not provide voting instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee with respect to Item 1 (the election of directors), Item 2 (the approval of, in a non-binding, advisory vote, the compensation paid to our named executive officers) and Item 3 (the determination, in a non-binding, advisory vote, whether a stockholder vote to approve the compensation paid to our named executive officers should occur every one, two or three years) and your broker, bank or other nominee exercises discretionary authority to vote on Item 4 (the ratification of the appointment of KPMG as our independent registered public accountant for 2023), then the missing votes for Item 1, Item 2 and Item 3 will be considered “broker non-votes” and will not be counted in determining the outcome of the vote on these Items.

HOW DO I VOTE PRIOR TO THE MEETING?

Stockholders of record can vote before the meeting as follows:

By Internet: Stockholders may vote over the Internet at www.proxyvote.com by following the instructions included on your Notice. You will need the 16-digit Control Number included on the Notice to obtain your records and to create an electronic voting instruction form.

PROXY STATEMENT ● ABOUT THE MEETING

WHO WILL COUNT THE VOTES?

A representative of Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. will tabulate the votes and act as inspector of elections.

WHAT IS A PROXY?

A proxy is a person you appoint to vote on your behalf. We are soliciting your vote so that all shares of our common stock may be voted at the annual meeting.

WHOM AM I DESIGNATING AS MY PROXY?

If you vote by Internet, telephone or mail as indicated in this proxy statement, you will be designating Patrick L. Donnelly, our Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, and Ruth A. Ziegler, our Senior Vice President and Deputy General Counsel, as your proxies. However, you may appoint a person (who need not be a stockholder) other than Patrick L. Donnelly and Ruth A. Ziegler to vote on your behalf at the meeting by completing another proper proxy.

HOW WILL MY PROXY VOTE MY SHARES?

Your proxy will vote your shares according to your instructions. If you complete your proxy card but do not indicate how you would like your shares voted, your proxy will vote in accordance with the recommendation of our board of directors.

WHO IS SOLICITING MY PROXY, AND WHO WILL PAY FOR THE COSTS OF THE SOLICITATION?

Outside Commitments

In recent years, some investors and proxy advisors have instituted “bright-line” proxy voting policies on the number of outside public company boards that a director may serve on. The board of directors recognizes investors’ concerns that highly sought-after directors could lack the time and attention to adequately perform their duties and responsibilities, and the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee rigorously evaluates each director’s performance and commitment to ensure their continued effectiveness as a director.

The board of directors recognizes that Mr. Maffei, Chairman of our board of directors and President and Chief Executive Officer of Liberty Media, also sits on the board of directors of several other companies in which Liberty Media has an investment or a management relationship, as well as the board of directors of Zillow Group, Inc. The Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee has considered the facts-and-circumstances of Mr. Maffei’s role, including the significant time and resources Mr. Maffei regularly dedicates to SiriusXM, the nature of his outside board commitments (which primarily relate to his role with Liberty Media), the synergies between his service on these other boards and ours, the nature of Liberty Media’s relationship with us, and Mr. Maffei’s broad industry knowledge, and concluded that Mr. Maffei’s outside service does not conflict with, and instead enhances, his role and responsibilities at SiriusXM.

The board of directors recognizes that Mr. Vogel, an independent director, also sits on the board of directors of Universal Electronics, Inc., AMC Networks, Inc. and Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corp. The Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee has considered the facts-and-circumstances of Mr. Vogel’s role, including the significant time and resources Mr. Vogel regularly dedicates to SiriusXM as a director and as Chairman of the Compensation Committee, the fact that he is not presently the chief executive officer of a public

In addition, the board of directors recognizes that Mr. Zaslav, an independent director and President and Chief Executive Officer of Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc., also sits on the board of directors of Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc., American Cinematheque, The Cable Center, Grupo Televisa, Partnership for New York City and USC Shoah Foundation, is an advisor to the Board of Directors of the Elie Wiesel Foundation for Humanity, and is a member of the Board of Trustees for the Paley Center for Media, the Mount Sinai Medical Center and Syracuse University. The Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee has considered the facts-and-circumstances of Mr. Zaslav’s role, including the time and resources Mr. Zaslav dedicates to SiriusXM, the nature of his outside board and charitable commitments, the synergies between his service to these other boards and institutions and our board of directors, and Mr. Zaslav’s broad media industry knowledge, and concluded that Mr. Zaslav’s outside service does not conflict with, and instead augments, his role and responsibilities at SiriusXM.

For these reasons, the board of directors believes that Mr. Maffei, Mr. Vogel and Mr. Zaslav will continue to provide SiriusXM with the necessary time and attention as well as valuable insight, and it has nominated each of them to continue their respective service on our board of directors.

What are the responsibilities of the board of directors?

The business and affairs of our company are managed under the direction of our board of directors.

Our board, among other things, oversees senior management selection, monitors overall corporate performance and ensures the integrity of our financial controls. Our board of directors also oversees our strategic and business planning processes with a goal of responsibly growing our business and creating value for our stockholders.

Our board of directors believes that earning the trust of our customers, stockholders and other stakeholders is a foundation of our business success. Our focus on earning trust positions us well as companies face new scrutiny and demands for accountability. Today, companies face increasing expectations from governments and other stakeholders to address the impacts of technology on individual rights, cybersecurity, and environmental sustainability. Customers embrace brands they understand and trust, and we expect they will increasingly turn away from products and companies that fail to uphold that trust. Similarly, governments and investors are increasingly focused on the importance of effective engagement and action on environmental, social and corporate governance topics. To meet the expectations of our stakeholders and to earn and maintain their trust, we are committed to conducting our business in ways that are principled, transparent, and accountable.

We have made a broad range of commitments on issues of significant concern to the public, including privacy and cybersecurity. We believe privacy is a fundamental human right and demonstrate our belief with concrete actions to protect our customers’ privacy and give them control over their data. We take a broad view of cybersecurity and work to protect our customers through our security operations and our investments in technology.

Our board of directors also oversees the key risks identified through our enterprise risk management process for board oversight: privacy-related risks; competitive risks facing our businesses, including risks relating to reputational and customer service risks; succession planning for our executive officers and other senior management; cybersecurity risks; corporate responsibility and sustainability risks (including climate risk); corporate governance risks; and other legal and regulatory risks. Our board of directors also reviews other significant risks facing our company identified through our enterprise risk management process, including the uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic and supply chain constraints. Among these are other significant strategic, operational, legal and environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) risks, including human capital risks such as those relating to sexual or other harassment, diversity and inclusion initiatives, and

overall workplace employee culture. Our Chief Executive Officer regularly reports to the board of directors our efforts to build a corporate culture based on integrity and respect, with the goal of working together to drive our business to be innovative, competitive and valued by listeners and advertisers.

How are nominees for the board of directors selected?

Our Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee reviews possible candidates to be directors and is responsible for overseeing matters of corporate governance, including the evaluation of performance and practices of the board of directors and the board’s committees. The Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee considers suggestions from many sources, including stockholders, for potential director nominees. Such suggestions, together with appropriate biographical and other information required pursuant to our By-laws, should be submitted to our Corporate Secretary, Sirius XM Holdings Inc., 1221 Avenue of the Americas, 35th Floor, New York, New York 10020. Candidates who are suggested by our stockholders are evaluated by the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee in the same manner as are other potential candidates to be directors.

In its assessment of each potential candidate, including those recommended by stockholders, the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee takes into account all factors it considers appropriate, which may include:

●	ensuring that the board of directors, as a whole, is diverse and consists of individuals with various and relevant career experience, relevant technical skills, industry knowledge and experience, financial expertise (including expertise that could qualify a director as a “financial expert,” as that term is defined by the rules of the SEC), and local or community ties, and
●	minimum individual qualifications, including strength of character, mature judgment, familiarity with our business or related industries, independence of thought and ability to work collegially.

It is the policy of the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee to require that any list of candidates to be considered by the Committee for nomination to our board include a diverse pool of candidates with a diversity of race, ethnicity, gender, gender identity and sexual orientation. Any third party consultant asked to furnish an initial list will be requested to include such candidates.

The Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee also may consider the extent to which a candidate would fill a present need on the board of directors. After conducting an initial evaluation of a candidate, the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee will interview that candidate if it believes the candidate might be qualified to be a director and may ask the candidate to meet with other directors and management. If the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee believes a candidate would be a valuable addition to the board of directors, it will recommend to the board that candidate’s nomination as a director.

What is the board’s leadership structure?

Gregory B. Maffei, the Chief Executive Officer of Liberty Media Corporation, is the Chairman of our board of directors. The Chairman of our board organizes the work of the board and ensures that the board has access to sufficient information to enable the board to carry out its functions, including monitoring our performance and the performance of management. The Chairman, among other things, presides over meetings of the board of directors, establishes the agenda for each meeting of the board in consultation with our Chief Executive Officer, oversees the distribution of information to directors, and performs other duties or assignments as agreed with either the board of directors or our Chief Executive Officer. The board of directors has determined that it is currently in our best interests to separate the Chairman of the board position and

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

ITEM 1—ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

the Chief Executive Officer position because it allows the Chief Executive Officer to focus on our day-to-day business, including risk management, while allowing the Chairman of the board to lead the directors and assist the board in its fundamental role of providing advice to, and oversight of, management. In addition, a separate Chairman provides an additional resource and level of support to our Chief Executive Officer. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines (the “Guidelines”) do not establish this approach as a policy, but as a matter that is considered from time-to-time.

Does the board have a lead independent director?

Liberty Media beneficially owns, directly and indirectly, approximately 83% of our outstanding common stock. In light of that control relationship, the board of directors believes it is appropriate, and a matter of good corporate governance, to designate a director to serve as the Lead Independent Director. The board has designated Eddy W. Hartenstein, the former Chairman of our board of directors, to serve as the Lead Independent Director. The Lead Independent Director coordinates the activities of the other independent directors and performs such other duties and responsibilities as the board of directors determines. As the Lead Independent Director, Mr. Hartenstein also chairs executive sessions of our independent directors, chairs meetings of the board of directors in the absence of the Chairman, meets regularly with our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, provides input on the design and functioning of the board of directors, and acts as the principal liaison between our Chairman and our independent directors.

Are all of the directors required to be independent?

Liberty Media beneficially owns, directly and indirectly, approximately 83% of our outstanding common stock entitled to vote for the election of directors. As a result, we are considered a “controlled company” and are accordingly exempt from certain corporate governance requirements of NASDAQ including, among other items, the requirement that our board of directors be comprised of a majority of independent directors, that we have a compensation committee comprised of independent directors and that director nominations are recommended by the independent members of the board of directors or a nominating committee composed of independent directors. We rely on these exemptions available to a controlled company with respect to the independence requirements applicable to members of our compensation committee and our Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee.

The controlled company exemption does not extend to the audit committee independence requirements. Accordingly, our audit committee is, and will continue to be, comprised solely of directors meeting the independence standards under the applicable NASDAQ listing standards, Section 10A(m)(3) of the Exchange Act and our Guidelines.

How does the board determine which directors are considered independent?

Our board reviews the independence of our directors annually. The provisions of our Guidelines regarding director independence meet, and in some areas exceed, the listing standards of NASDAQ. A copy of our Guidelines is available on our website under “ESG – Governance – Governance Documents”.

The Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee undertook a review of director independence in March 2023. As part of this review, the Committee reviewed with our Corporate Secretary questionnaires submitted by directors. These questionnaires disclose transactions and relationships between each director or members of his or her immediate family, on one hand, and us, other directors, members of our senior management and our affiliates, on the other hand.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

ITEM 1—ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Based on this review, the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee determined that all of our directors and nominees are independent under the standards set forth in our Guidelines and the applicable NASDAQ listing standards, with the exception of:

●	Jennifer C. Witz, our Chief Executive Officer;
●	James E. Meyer, our former Chief Executive Officer;
●	Gregory B. Maffei, who is the President and Chief Executive Officer of Liberty Media;
●	David A. Blau, who is an employee of Liberty Media;
●	Robin P. Hickenlooper, who is an employee of Liberty Media; and
●	Evan D. Malone, whose father is the Chairman of Liberty Media.

In the case of Michael Rapino, the directors evaluated the ownership relationship between Liberty Media and Live Nation, including the fact that Mr. Maffei is the Chairman of the Board of Live Nation, and other ordinary course transactions, such as data and marketing agreements, between us and Live Nation. In the case of David Zaslav, the directors evaluated ordinary course transactions, such as various content and marketing agreements, between us and Warner Bros. Discovery. Similarly, in the case of Jonelle Procope, the directors evaluated the ordinary course transactions between us and the Apollo Theater. The board concluded that neither Mr. Rapino, Mr. Zaslav nor Ms. Procope had any relationships that, in the opinion of the board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out their responsibilities as directors.

The board has determined that one half of the members of the Compensation Committee meet the independence standards under the applicable NASDAQ listing standards and our Guidelines and qualify as “non-employee directors” for purposes of Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act. The board has determined that one half of the members of the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee meet the independence requirements mandated by NASDAQ applicable to serving on the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee and our Guidelines.

Some investors and proxy advisors have proxy voting policies restricting non-independent directors from serving on a company’s Compensation Committee or the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee. While the board of directors appreciates this viewpoint, the directors believe that the insight provided by Ms. Hickenlooper as well as Mr. Blau and Mr. Maffei and the nature of our relationship with Liberty Media makes Ms. Hickenlooper and Mr. Blau’s service on the Compensation Committee, and Mr. Maffei’s service on the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee, appropriate and in the best interests of all stockholders.

The board has also determined that all of the members of the Audit Committee are financially sophisticated, meet the independence requirements mandated by the applicable NASDAQ listing standards, Section 10A(m)(3) of the Exchange Act and our Guidelines. The board further determined that each member of the Audit Committee qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of the applicable SEC regulations.

Our independent directors meet regularly in executive sessions and such sessions are chaired by Mr. Hartenstein, our Lead Independent Director.

What are the current standing committees of the board of directors, and who are the members of these committees?

Our board of directors has three standing committees: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee. From time to time, the board may also form ad hoc committees.

Copies of the current charters for the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee are available on our website under “ESG – Governance –Committee Charters”.

The board of directors selected Eddy W. Hartenstein and James P. Holden to serve on the Special Committee. The Special Committee is chaired by Mr. Hartenstein.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

ITEM 1—ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

How often did the board and its committees meet during 2022?

During 2022, there were six meetings of our board of directors, four Audit Committee meetings, three Compensation Committee meetings and two Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee meetings. Each director nominee attended 75% or more of the total number of meetings of the board and meetings held by committees on which he or she served.

Directors are also encouraged to attend the annual meeting of stockholders. Ms. Witz attended our 2022 annual meeting of stockholders.

How can stockholders communicate with the board of directors?

Stockholders may communicate directly with our board of directors, or specified individual directors, according to the procedures described on our website under “ESG – Governance – Contact Our Board”.

Our Corporate Secretary reviews all correspondence to our directors and forwards to the board a summary and/or copies of any such correspondence that, in the opinion of the Corporate Secretary, deals with the functions of the board or committees thereof or that he otherwise determines requires their attention. Directors may at any time review all correspondence received by us that is addressed to members of our board.

In addition, the Audit Committee has established procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment, on a confidential basis, of complaints received by us, our board of directors and the Audit Committee regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters, and the confidential, anonymous submissions by employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters. These procedures are available upon written request to our Corporate Secretary.

Director Compensation

Pursuant to our director compensation program, in 2022, as Chairman of the board of directors, Mr. Maffei received an annual cash retainer of $150,000. Mr. Hartenstein, our Lead Independent Director, also received an annual cash retainer of $150,000. The other non-employee members of our board of directors each received an annual cash retainer of $100,000.

Each director who served as chair of a committee of the board of directors in 2022 received an additional annual cash retainer as follows: the Audit Committee chairwoman received $30,000; the Compensation Committee chairman received $20,000; and the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee chairwoman received $15,000.

In addition, on an annual basis, each member receives approximately $175,000 in the form of restricted stock units (“RSUs”). These RSUs were granted on the business day following our 2022 annual meeting of stockholders. These RSUs granted to our directors vest on the first anniversary of the date of grant.

In 2022, Eddy W, Hartenstein and James P. Holden each received $80,000 in cash for their service as members of the Special Committee. Messrs. Hartenstein and Holden are each expected to receive $20,000 per quarter in 2023 for their service as members of the Special Committee.

Mr. Meyer retired as our Chief Executive Officer on December 31, 2020. Upon his retirement, we entered into a three-year consulting agreement with Mr. Meyer pursuant to which he is paid a fee of $3,200,000 per year. Mr. Meyer is also entitled to the compensation paid to other members of the board of directors. As our Chief Executive Officer, Ms. Witz does not receive additional compensation for her service on the board.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

ITEM 1—ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Each director is expected to own shares of our common stock equal in value to at least five times the annual cash retainer payable to the director. All directors have until the later of: (i) five years from the date the director is elected or appointed as a member of the Board and (ii) September 1, 2023, to reach these minimum ownership guidelines.

Directors may defer their annual cash retainer each year under the Sirius XM Holdings Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan. Participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan, and to what extent, is at each director’s discretion and there is no matching contribution from us. In 2022, Mr. Maffei participated in the Deferred Compensation Plan. At the time of making a deferral election, directors designate the time and form of the distribution of deferrals to be made for the year to which that election relates. Distributions may occur earlier upon a change in control or a termination as a director, subject to certain conditions provided for under the Deferred Compensation Plan and Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. Directors have the opportunity to designate the investment funds to which the deferred amounts are credited. All investment gains and losses in a director’s account under the Deferred Compensation Plan are entirely based upon the investment selections made by the director. We have established a grantor (or “rabbi”) trust to facilitate payment of our obligations under the Deferred Compensation Plan.

Dividend equivalent units are granted to directors if, on any date while RSUs they hold are outstanding, we pay a dividend on our common stock (other than a dividend payable in common stock). The number of RSUs granted to the director are, as of the record date for such dividend payment, increased by a number of RSUs equal to: (a) the product of (x) the number of RSUs held by the director as of such record date, multiplied by (y) the per share amount of any cash dividend (or, in the case of any dividend payable, in whole or in part, other than in cash, the per share value of such dividend, as determined in good faith by us), divided by (b) the average closing price of a share of our common stock on NASDAQ on the twenty trading days preceding, but not including, such record date. Dividend equivalent units vest on the same terms as the related RSUs.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

Environmental, Social and Governance Highlights

Overview

Our Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee is responsible for leading our board of directors and its committees in reviewing our practices concerning significant environmental, social and governance matters. This includes oversight of our policies, practices and reporting with respect to significant ESG matters, including matters relating to:

●	assessing and managing the impacts of our business activities on the environment and compliance with environmental laws and regulations;
●	our focus on diversity, equity and inclusion (“DE&I”) related to our employees and with respect to the content we produce and distribute on our platforms; and
●	governance practices aimed at ensuring objective oversight of our business activities.

The Committee fulfills these responsibilities in consultation and coordination with other committees of the board of directors as well as with the full board.

In 2021, we engaged an independent advisory firm that advises public companies on corporate governance and ESG strategy to assist us, the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee and our board of directors in developing and executing our ESG strategy. In 2021, we conducted a materiality assessment of relevant ESG risks and opportunities; identified areas of focus for our company; evaluated the ESG practices of certain peer companies; and began the process of developing ESG policies and practices to address the expectations of investors and our stakeholders. In 2022, we compiled information regarding our ESG efforts and published them on our website, including a discussion of our environmental impact and greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions, a review of our social responsibility and DE&I practices, and our governance practices (including a library that includes ESG-related policies).

ESG Areas of Focus

Our 2021 materiality assessment identified the ESG issues that we believe are most relevant to our company and stakeholders, and the pillars upon which we expected to base our ESG strategy. A summary of those pillars is included below:

Efficiency and Environmental Responsibility		Talent & Engagement		Platform for Diverse Perspectives
We seek to improve our products and services for our customers while being efficient and conscious of the environment.		Our diverse talent drives what we do, and we strive to provide an engaging environment where each person can thrive.		We aim to be a platform for diverse perspectives and facilitate dialogue on all issues, big and small.

In 2022, we refined our ESG strategy, practices and disclosures, and in 2023, we anticipate that we will be able to provide investors and other stakeholders with updates on our activities on our website.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE HIGHLIGHTS

Environmental

In 2022, we licensed a system that assists us in the compiling of data related to the consumption of energy across our business activities. This allows us to estimate the amount of GHG emissions generated by our consumption of energy. In 2021, electricity consumption at our office locations, data centers, and repeater networks generated the vast majority of our GHG emissions, all of which constituted Scope 2 GHG emissions (i.e., emissions that we may cause indirectly when the energy we purchase and use is produced). A relatively small amount of our energy consumption in 2021 was related to heating our locations and fueling our small fleet of vehicles (most of which are used for testing our satellite radio service and our connected vehicle services), which constitutes Scope 1 GHG emissions.

During 2023, we intend to update our website to disclose our 2022 GHG emission data once we have completed the process of compiling that data. In 2023, we also intend to begin analyzing our Scope 3 GHG emissions (i.e., emissions that are not produced by us, and not the result of activities from assets owned or controlled by us, but emissions that we may be indirectly responsible for) to determine the materiality of those emissions on our business and provide estimates of our most significant categories of Scope 3 emissions. We also intend to monitor and analyze our business activities to evaluate opportunities to reduce and potentially mitigate our carbon footprint over time, including making certain tax equity investments in clean energy technologies, as we have made in the past.

Social

Our Workforce

We believe that a diverse workforce is critical to our success. We cultivate an inclusive environment where human differences are valued, respected, supported and amplified. We have taken actions to recruit, retain, develop and advance a diverse and talented workforce. Our diversity, equity and inclusion efforts are led by our Senior Vice President, Head of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion. This position regularly reports to our Chief Executive Officer, works with our executive officers and provides updates to our board of directors.

We are focused on increasing the representation of women and people of color at all levels of our organization. We recruit talent in diverse communities, including by engaging as a sponsor of professional conferences focused on diverse talent. We have created a program, called Pathways, that provides recent graduates of Historically Black Colleges and Universities with entry-level full-time opportunities. We also have agreements with third parties designed to offer leadership development for Black, Latinx, Native American and Asian employees. Additionally, we provide a mentoring program to help underrepresented employees benefit from coaching, guidance, and feedback. We have five employee resource groups supporting women, people of color, veterans, the LGBTQIA+ community and employees with disabilities.

In an effort to assess, evaluate and further our DE&I efforts, we periodically ask our employees to provide voluntary demographic information related to gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, veteran and disability status. We also comply with the FCC’s Equal Employment Opportunity (“EEO”) rules, including making the EEO reports we file with the FCC publicly available.

To attract and retain talent, we also recognize the need to create a supportive workplace, with opportunities for our employees to grow and develop in their careers, supported by competitive compensation, benefits and health and wellness programs, and by programs that build connections between our employees and their communities. For more information on our related practices and programs, please see the disclosure in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 under the caption “Human Capital Resources.”

Our Workplace

In addition to cultivating a diverse and inclusive environment, we believe it is important to ensure that policies, processes and practices are administered fairly and equitably for all employees. We have implemented a broad set of anti-harassment and discrimination policies designed to protect against discrimination based upon sex, gender, race, color, religion/religious creed, national origin, ancestry, physical or mental disability, genetic information, age, marital status, pregnancy, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, sex stereotype, transgender, immigration status, military and protected veteran status, medical condition, or any basis prohibited under federal, state or local law. We also provide regular training and guidance to our workforce regarding diversity, equity and

ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE HIGHLIGHTS

inclusion. In 2021, we launched “Can We Talk?” an initiative aimed at increasing cultural awareness and promoting dialogue and “Conscious Inclusion,” a facilitator-led training required for all of our full-time U.S. based employees. Conscious Inclusion is designed to promote inclusive behaviors in our workplace by enabling employees to explore bias and its impact and to learn how it translates to reactions and behaviors towards differences. We have integrated diversity, equity and inclusion messaging into our regular meetings between our Chief Executive Officer and our workforce.

Serving as a Platform for Diverse Perspectives

We offer audio platforms where listeners have access to diverse programming that represents a wide range of backgrounds, lifestyles, opinions and viewpoints. We are committed to respecting creator expression and honoring listener preferences while facilitating dialogue on all issues, big and small. We support freedom of speech and expression whether it be in talk, comedy, entertainment, sports, music or commentary of any kind.

Collectively, our programming is designed to broaden the listening experience for individuals, regardless of their views, and so we will continue to offer content across the entire spectrum of viewpoints and entertainment offerings.

On programming and content that some may deem controversial, we come down on the side of allowing the voices in a debate, or the message from an artist or performer, to speak for itself rather than acting to censure or cancel. As supporters of free speech and expression, our philosophy is to be extraordinarily cautious before removing content.

Corporate Giving & Volunteering

Our corporate giving and volunteering programs encourage employees to give to the causes most meaningful to them. We have a charitable match program which offers employees a dollar-for-dollar match on their charitable contributions up to a specific cap. In addition, full-time employees are eligible to receive five days of paid time off to volunteer with charitable organizations of their choice. During 2022, more than 450 employees volunteered over 6,000 hours, while more than 800 employees utilized our charitable matching program, benefiting more than 1,000 charitable organizations.

In 2020, we contributed $25 million to a donor advised fund to support our charitable contributions, an effort we call SiriusXM Cares. In 2022, SiriusXM Cares contributed to a variety of organizations which promote social equality, education, hiring, or combat racial injustice, including The National Museum of African American History and Culture, Save The Music, Huston-Tillotson University, Asian Americans Advancing Justice, South Asian Americans Leading Together, the Alliance for Women in Media, the Human Rights Campaign, TASH (an international advocacy association of people with disabilities, their family members, other advocates, and people who work in the disability field), the League of United Latin American Citizens, the Native American Rights Fund, The Warrior Alliance, the AutoNation Foundation, the St. Thomas Aquinas College Social Justice Center, United Jewish Appeal Federation of Jewish Philanthropies of NY, Inc., City of Hope, United States Memorial Museum, and The Last Mile.

Governance of ESG

As noted above, the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee is responsible for leading our board of directors and its committees in reviewing our practices concerning relevant environmental, social and governance matters.

In 2022, our ESG process was overseen by our Senior Vice President and Treasurer, William Prip. Mr. Prip reports directly to our Chief Financial Officer and worked with a cross-functional team that included our General Counsel, Chief People + Culture Officer, Senior Vice President and Controller, Senior Vice President, Corporate Communications, Senior Vice President, Investor Relations, Senior Vice President, Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, and others that provided direction and oversight of our ESG efforts. Mr. Prip provided updates to our executive leadership and to the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee on ESG-related activities.

In addition, our management provides updates from time to time to the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee and our full board of directors on key ESG initiatives.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

Governance of the Company

What is SiriusXM’s corporate culture?

We are focused on creating a culture of integrity and respect, with the goal of working together to drive our business to be creative, innovative and competitive. In 2022, we announced a new set of core values to our workforce: “We believe we will shape the future of audio because we are: authentic, inclusive, curious and driven”. We intend to employ these core values to inform and guide the decisions and behaviors of our employees.

We operate a performance-based environment where results matter and financial discipline is enforced. We have a highly collaborative culture in which employees feel a sense of pride that their input is sought after and valued. At the same time, we believe in holding individuals accountable for results and employees are empowered and expected to “do what they say they are going to do.” We believe that our culture is a long-term competitive advantage for us, fuels our ability to execute and is a critical underpinning of our employee talent strategy.

What is SiriusXM’s process for succession planning and talent management?

Ensuring that we have the appropriate senior management talent to successfully pursue our strategies is one of our board’s primary responsibilities. At least once a year, the board of directors discusses succession planning for our Chief Executive Officer and the remainder of our executive officers and senior executives. To help fulfill the board’s responsibility, our Compensation Committee helps ensure that we have in place appropriate plans to address CEO succession both in the ordinary course of business and in emergency situations. Our CEO succession planning includes criteria that reflect our business strategies, such as identifying and developing internal candidates. Our Guidelines also require that we have appropriate succession planning for the remainder of our senior management team, including our named executive officers.

Recruiting, developing, promoting and retaining top talent is a key priority for our company. Throughout the year, our executive officers, as well as a broader array of executives throughout our company, make presentations to the board of directors and may also interact with our directors informally outside of our scheduled Board meetings. This engagement between directors and our current and future leaders is one means by which we provide our directors insight into our current pool of talent, what attracts and retains our senior management, and our corporate culture.

How does the board of directors and the Audit Committee oversee cybersecurity risks?

Our chief information officer and our chief information security officer regularly make presentations regarding cybersecurity, including updates regarding cybersecurity concerns and our approach to managing cybersecurity risks, to the Audit Committee, which is tasked with primary oversight of certain risk issues, including cybersecurity.

In order to respond to the threat of security breaches and cyberattacks, we have developed a program, overseen by our chief information security officer and our information security council, that is designed to protect and preserve the confidentiality, integrity and continued availability of information owned by, or in the care of, our company. As part of this program, we conduct periodic “war games” and “desktop exercises” to simulate security breaches and cyberattacks and prepare our response teams. This program also includes a cyber incident response plan that is intended to provide controls and procedures for timely and accurate reporting of any material cybersecurity incident. The Audit Committee regularly briefs our board of directors on these matters.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

GOVERNANCE OF THE COMPANY

How does the board of directors oversee our risk management process?

The board executes its oversight responsibility for risk management directly and through its committees, as follows:

●	The Audit Committee has primary responsibility for monitoring our internal audit, corporate, financial and risk management processes and overseeing our system of internal controls and financial reporting. The Audit Committee discusses specific risk areas throughout the year, including those that may arise from time to time and the measures taken by management to monitor and limit risks.

●	The Audit Committee receives regular reports throughout the year on matters related to risk management. At each regularly scheduled meeting, the Audit Committee receives reports from (i) our external auditor on the status of audit activities and findings and (ii) the Company executive in charge of internal audit (who reports directly to the Audit Committee) on the status of our internal audit plan, audit results and any corrective action taken in response to internal audit findings.

●	We have a Compliance Officer who is in charge of our compliance with FCC related laws and regulations and training and monitoring compliance with those laws and regulations. Our Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary reports to the Audit Committee throughout the year on information received via submissions to our compliance hotline and any changes or developments in compliance matters. Each quarter, our Chief Financial Officer reports to the board of directors on our performance and discusses how actual performance compares to our business plan and budget. Our executive officers report regularly to the board about the risks and exposures related to our business.

●	The Audit Committee, which is generally responsible for risk oversight, is regularly updated by our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer regarding enterprise risk management efforts, including cybersecurity concerns and our approach to managing cybersecurity risks. Our chief information officer and chief information security officer also regularly make presentations to the Audit Committee regarding cybersecurity.

●	The Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee reviews and oversees, among other things, our policies, practices and positions to further our corporate citizenship and sustainability, including matters relating to environmental quality, corporate social responsibility, diversity and inclusion, and other environmental, social and governance matters.

●	The other committees of the board of directors oversee risks associated with their respective areas of responsibility. For example, the Compensation Committee assesses risks associated with management succession planning and our compensation policies and programs for executives as well as the broader employee base.

●	The committees report to the board of directors at every regular board meeting on the topics discussed and actions taken at the most recent committee meeting. Our board of directors discusses the risks and exposures, if any, involved in the matters or recommendations of the committees, as necessary.

●	Our board of directors also considers specific risk topics throughout the year, including risks associated with our business plan, litigation, operational efficiency, government regulation, physical facilities, information technology infrastructure, cybersecurity and capital structure. The board is informed about and regularly discusses our risk profile, including legal, regulatory and operational risks to our business.

In administering its risk oversight function, the board attempts to discuss, evaluate and asses various risks based on the immediacy of the risks, including whether the matters can properly be classified as short-term, intermediate-term or long-term, and then discuss the nature and extent of the risk in the context of the time horizon for the associated risk. In assessing risks, the board of directors has in the past and may in the future consult with outside advisors and experts, such as experts in cybersecurity, to help it assess and, to the extent possible, anticipate future threats and trends.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

GOVERNANCE OF THE COMPANY

On an annual basis, and more often as the facts and circumstances warrant, our Senior Vice President, Internal Audit, leads a process with our senior management to identify, assess and evaluate our enterprise-wide risks. As noted above, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer regularly update the Audit Committee regarding our enterprise risk management efforts, including significant emerging risks identified by our Senior Vice President, Internal Audit. Our risk oversight efforts are an integrated part of our financial reporting and disclosure controls process. Enterprise risks, including emerging items, are discussed are part our corporate controls in preparing our SEC and other public filings.

What are our policies and procedures for related person transactions?

We have adopted a written policy and written procedures for the review, approval and monitoring of transactions involving the Company or its subsidiaries and “related persons.” For the purposes of the policy, “related persons” include executive officers, directors or their immediate family members, or stockholders owning more than five percent of our common stock.

Our related person transaction policy requires:

●	that any transaction in which the Company is a participant, a related person has a material direct or indirect interest and which exceeds $120,000 (such transaction referred to as a “related person” transaction) and any material amendment or modification to a related person transaction, be reviewed and approved or ratified by a committee of the board composed solely of independent directors who are disinterested; and

●	that any employment relationship or transaction involving an executive officer and the Company must be approved by the Compensation Committee or recommended by the Compensation Committee to the board of directors for its approval.

In connection with the review and approval or ratification of a related person transaction, management must:

●	disclose to the committee or independent directors, as applicable, the material terms of the related person transaction, including the approximate dollar value of the amount involved in the transaction, and all the material facts as to the related person’s direct or indirect interest in, or relationship to, the related person transaction;

●	advise the committee or independent directors, as applicable, as to whether the related person transaction complies with the terms of our agreements governing our material outstanding indebtedness that limit or restrict our ability to enter into a related person transaction;

●	advise the committee or independent directors, as applicable, as to whether the related person transaction will be required to be disclosed in our SEC filings. To the extent required to be disclosed, management must ensure that the related person transaction is disclosed in accordance with SEC rules; and

●	advise the committee or independent directors, as applicable, as to whether the related person transaction constitutes a “personal loan” for purposes of Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

In addition, the related person transaction policy provides that the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee, in connection with any approval or ratification of a related person transaction involving a non-employee director or director nominee, should consider whether such transaction would compromise the director or director nominee’s status as an “independent” or “outside” director, as applicable, under the rules and regulations of the SEC and NASDAQ.

We have entered into several agreements with the Apollo Theater in the ordinary course of business, including agreements to hold certain live subscriber events. Jonelle Procope, the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Apollo Theater Foundation, Inc., is a member of our board of directors and the Chair of the Nominating, Environmental, Social and Governance Committee.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

GOVERNANCE OF THE COMPANY

Since 2017, we have entered into a series of agreements with Meyer Shank Racing, Inc., the owner of a professional race car team competing in the IndyCar Series and other auto racing series, to sponsor a professional race car team. Mr. Meyer, our Vice Chairman, owns an approximately 28% interest in Meyer Shank Racing, Inc., while Liberty Media owns an approximately 30% interest in Meyer Shank Racing, Inc. Our board of directors has reviewed our agreements and relationship with Meyer Shank Racing and all of our agreements with Meyer Shank Racing have been approved by the Audit Committee. In 2021, we renewed our racing team sponsorship for the 2022 and 2023 racing seasons. In 2022, we spent approximately $4.5 million in connection with this sponsorship and in 2023 and 2024, we expect to spend approximately $3.8 million and $2.7 million, respectively.

On February 1, 2021, we entered into a tax sharing agreement with Liberty Media governing the allocation of consolidated U.S. income tax liabilities and setting forth agreements with respect to other tax matters. The tax sharing agreement was negotiated and approved by the Special Committee of our board of directors, each of whom is independent of Liberty Media.

Under the Internal Revenue Code, two corporations may form a consolidated tax group, and file a consolidated federal income tax return, if one corporation owns stock representing at least 80% of the voting power and value of the outstanding capital stock of the other corporation. The tax sharing agreement governs certain matters related to the resulting consolidated federal income tax returns, as well as state and local returns filed on a consolidated or combined basis.

On November 1, 2021, Liberty Media entered into an Exchange Agreement with certain counterparties to acquire an aggregate of 43,658,800 shares of our common stock in exchange for the issuance by Liberty Media to the holders of an aggregate of 5,347,320 shares of Liberty’s Series A Liberty SiriusXM Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, in a transaction intended to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The transactions under the Exchange Agreement closed on November 3, 2021 and, as a result, we became members of the same consolidated tax group with Liberty Media. As of March 31, 2023, Liberty Media beneficially owned, directly and indirectly, approximately 83% of the outstanding shares of our common stock.

Also on November 1, 2021, we entered into an agreement with Liberty Media, whereby Liberty Media agreed not to effect any merger with us pursuant to Section 253 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (or any successor to such statute) without obtaining the prior approval of the Special Committee of our board of directors (or any successor Special Committee of independent and disinterested directors) as well as an agreement regarding certain tax matters relating to the transactions under the Exchange Agreement, including the adoption of the Exchange Agreement as a “plan of reorganization.” Each of these agreements between us and Liberty Media was negotiated by Liberty Media with the Special Committee of our board of directors.

What is the relationship between SiriusXM and Liberty Media Corporation?

In February and March 2009, we entered into several transactions to borrow up to $530 million from Liberty Media Corporation and its affiliates. All of these loans were repaid in cash in 2009.

As part of the transactions with Liberty Media, in February 2009, we entered into an investment agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with Liberty Radio, LLC, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Liberty Media. Pursuant to the Investment Agreement, we issued to Liberty Radio, LLC 12,500,000 shares of convertible preferred stock in partial consideration for the loan investments. The preferred stock was convertible into approximately 40% of our outstanding shares of common stock (after giving effect to such conversion).

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

GOVERNANCE OF THE COMPANY

In September 2012, Liberty Radio, LLC converted 6,249,900 shares of its preferred stock into 1,293,467,684 shares of our common stock. In January 2013, the Federal Communications Commission granted Liberty Media approval to acquire control of us, and Liberty Radio, LLC converted its remaining preferred stock into an additional 1,293,509,076 shares of our common stock. As a result of these conversions of preferred stock and additional purchases of our common stock, Liberty Media then beneficially owned, directly and indirectly, over 50% of our outstanding common stock.

Four individuals who are affiliated with Liberty Media, either as executives or members of the board of directors of Liberty Media, are members of our board of directors. Gregory B. Maffei, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Liberty Media, is the Chairman of our board of directors.

As a result, Liberty Media has the ability to control our affairs, policies and operations, such as the appointment of management, future issuances of our common stock or other securities, the payment of dividends on our common stock, the incurrence of debt by us, amendments to our certificate of incorporation and by-laws and the entering into of extraordinary transactions, and their interests may not in all cases be aligned with the interests of other stockholders. In addition, Liberty Media can determine the outcome of all matters requiring general stockholder approval and has the ability to cause or prevent a change of control of our Company or a change in the composition of our board of directors and could preclude any unsolicited acquisition of our Company. The concentration of ownership could deprive stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their common stock as part of a sale of our Company and might ultimately affect the market price of our common stock.

Does SiriusXM have corporate governance guidelines and a code of ethics?

Our board of directors adopted our Guidelines which set forth a flexible framework within which the board, assisted by its committees, directs our affairs. Our Guidelines cover, among other things, the composition and functions of our board of directors, director independence, management succession and review, committee assignments and selection of new members of our board of directors.

Our board of directors has also adopted a Code of Ethics, which is applicable to all our directors and employees, including our chief executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer.

Our Guidelines and the Code of Ethics are available on our website under “ESG – Governance – Governance Documents” and in print to any stockholder who provides a written request for either document to our Corporate Secretary. If we amend or waive any provision of the Code of Ethics with respect to our directors, chief executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer, we will, if required, post the amendment or waiver at this location on our website.

Executive Compensation

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

INTRODUCTION

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis, or “CD&A,” describes and analyzes our executive compensation program for our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and our three other most highly compensated executive officers for 2022 as named in our Summary Compensation Table. We refer to these five officers throughout this CD&A and the accompanying tables as our “named executive officers.” On April 3, 2023, Sean S. Sullivan, our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, informed us that he was resigning from his role, effective April 28, 2023. In connection with Mr. Sullivan’s departure, we appointed Thomas D. Barry as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, effective as of April 28, 2023.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Compensation Committee is responsible for developing and maintaining a compensation program for our senior management, including our named executive officers. The Committee operates pursuant to a written charter, a copy of which is posted to the investor relations section of our corporate website under “ESG – Governance – Committee Charters”. The goal of our compensation programs is to provide competitive compensation packages that (1) help ensure we attract and retain the high caliber executives we need to achieve our business strategy and financial goals, (2) deliver positive returns to our stockholders over the long-term and (3) compensate our executives in a way that is commensurate with their responsibilities and appropriately encourages and rewards their performance. To achieve this, the Compensation Committee designs our compensation packages in order to reward (i) Company performance as measured by strategic, operating and financial results, (ii) individual contributions to those results and the organization as a whole, and (iii) stock price growth on an absolute and a relative basis. The Compensation Committee seeks to ensure that a large portion of our named executive officers’ compensation is performance-based and/or equity-linked rather than fixed, and awards are balanced between short-term and long-term compensation to incentivize our executives to achieve strong operating and financial results, while achieving long-term strategic objectives. The Compensation Committee believes that our ability to attract and retain talented and experienced individuals to think strategically and execute the Company’s business objectives is essential to our long-term success, particularly in light of the competitive, regulatory and technological environments in which we operate.

The Compensation Committee continues to believe that it is important to remain flexible in terms of senior management compensation and that our interests—and the interests of our stockholders—are best served by regular evaluations of our compensation structure and maintaining flexibility to individually tailor appropriate compensation arrangements for our senior management. Regular evaluations ensure that our compensation programs do not include inadvertent incentives for our named executive officers to take inappropriate business risks by making decisions that may serve their individual interests but are not in the best interests of our stockholders. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee discusses and evaluates our compensation program regularly, particularly the equity-based components of our compensation program, and periodically receives information regarding our compensation program’s design, bonus targets and equity grant guidelines. The Compensation Committee may modify its practices, including with respect to the mix of equity-based components that are included in our compensation program, to respond to evolving compensation trends and other events in order to further strengthen the link between executive and stockholder interests, and to further support our business goals and strategies.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ● COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The Compensation Committee believes that the diversity of our businesses, overlaid with the impact of potential cyclical factors, including macroeconomic and social factors (such as the disruption in the global supply chain for parts and components relevant to our business) affecting the sales of vehicles in the United States and the audio advertising market, can make financial goal-setting a challenge for us, both on a short-term and long-term basis. The work that our named executive officers must do to successfully operate our businesses, including working constructively, proactively and cohesively together while remaining true to our core values and fostering a culture that values diversity, inclusion, integrity and respect, does not at all times readily lend itself to formulaic measurements, and a proper assessment requires the use of business judgment. The Compensation Committee also recognizes the importance of identifying specific financial or operating metrics against which executive performance should be measured, and has endeavored to evolve our long-term incentive program to include goals that are both tied to operational performance and stock price. Specifically, the Compensation Committee has introduced a relative total stockholder return factor as part of its equity award grants. The Compensation Committee believes that the compensation of our named executive officers is commensurate with the size of our operations, the significant scope of their roles and responsibilities, and their strong values-driven leadership.

Do’s and Don’ts of Executive Compensation

*What We Do*			Grant performance-based restricted stock units to ensure that a large portion of executive pay is tied to performance, including use of a relative total stockholder return as a performance metric
			Include clawback provisions in our executive employment agreements
			Provide reasonable post-employment and change in control protections
			Include a “double-trigger” change in control provision in our Sirius XM Holdings Inc. 2015 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”)
			Prohibit short sales, transactions in derivatives and other hedging activities of our common stock by employees
			Use an independent compensation consultant to advise the Compensation Committee

*What We Don’t Do*			Include golden parachute excise tax gross-ups in employment agreements
			Reprice underwater stock options without stockholder approval or grant stock options with an exercise price less than the fair market value of our common stock on the grant date
			Provide excessive perquisites or tax gross-ups on any perquisites
			Offer defined benefit pension plans or supplemental executive retirement plans; instead, we offer a deferred compensation plan as an additional retirement vehicle for executives
			Provide special change in control benefits to executives

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ● COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Say-on-Pay Vote

At our annual meeting of stockholders in 2020, we held an advisory “say on pay” vote on the compensation of our named executive officers as required under Section 14A of the Exchange Act. At that meeting, our stockholders overwhelmingly approved the compensation of our named executive officers, with approximately 98% of our common stock that voted casting votes in favor of our say-on-pay resolution. The Compensation Committee considered the strong support that our stockholders expressed for our overall compensation programs and philosophy and determined that our programs continue to provide a competitive pay-for-performance package that effectively aligns the interests of our named executive officers with those of our stockholders. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee has not made any significant changes to the core elements of our compensation programs as a result of that vote. In addition, during our ordinary course engagements with investors over the past year, we have not received feedback seeking changes to these core elements.

The board previously adopted a policy of holding “say-on-pay” votes every three years. The Compensation Committee believes that a three-year period between “say-on-pay” votes is reasonable as it allows stockholders sufficient time to evaluate the effectiveness of our executive compensation strategies. Although the Compensation Committee will continue to monitor the frequency of “say-on-pay” votes, the Compensation Committee considers a triennial vote to be the appropriate frequency to provide time to thoughtfully consider and implement changes to our executive compensation program.

2022 Business Highlights

This past year, our executive team continued to navigate a complex macroeconomic environment and the continued disruption in the global supply chain for parts and components relevant to our business. Our results are a testament to the resiliency of our business, the strength of our audio entertainment product, the loyalty and trust of our customers and the successful execution by our management. We believe that the compensation program for our senior management, including our named executive officers, was an important tool in helping us manage the Company through this challenging environment. Our board of directors credits our named executive officers for working cohesively to effectively manage our businesses while navigating the significant and operational challenges presented by the ongoing uncertainty of the current environment, for fostering our entrepreneurial and innovative workplace culture while maintaining our commitment to diversity, inclusion, integrity and respect and giving back to the communities in which we operate, and for achieving a variety of key operating and financial results. Our strong financial results have allowed us to (i) reinvest in our business to compete effectively and adapt to changing consumer behavior and (ii) return significant capital to stockholders while maintaining a strong balance sheet. Further, we believe that we remain well positioned to capitalize on opportunities and successfully address future business challenges.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ● COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES OF OUR COMPENSATION PROGRAMS

*What our* *Executive* *Compensation* *Program Primarily* *Consists of and* *What it Aims* *to Achieve:*	● Consists of three primary elements: (1) base salary;
	(2) performance-based discretionary annual bonus; and
	(3) time- and performance-based long-term equity compensation.
	● Provides a mix of fixed compensation and short- and long-term incentives.
	● Focuses on core objectives:
	Pay for Performance	Provide reward levels that reflect variances between actual and desired performance results
	Flexibility	Enable us to make decisions based on the needs of the business and to recognize different levels of individual contribution
	Competitive	Ensure our compensation program is sufficiently competitive to achieve our business objectives
	Stockholder Value	Align executives’ interests with stockholders by creating incentives that reward executives for increasing stockholder value

PROGRAM OBJECTIVES

Our compensation philosophy is driven by our objective to attract the talent needed to lead SiriusXM in a dynamic, innovative and extremely competitive environment and to align the interests of our executives with those of our stockholders for the long-term. We provide compensation that is largely “at risk” and competitive with the various markets and industries in which we compete for talent. We also endeavor to develop executive compensation programs that are consistent with, explicitly linked to, and support our strategic objectives—growing our business and creating value for our stockholders.

We achieve these objectives through three primary compensation elements:

●	a base salary;

●	a performance-based discretionary annual bonus that constitutes the short-term incentive element of our program; and

●	time- and performance-based equity awards that constitute the long-term incentive element of our program.

The Compensation Committee believes that equity awards can motivate executives to execute on long-term strategic objectives and that achieving these objectives are drivers of stockholder value. Accordingly, the value of equity-based awards represents a significant portion of our executives’ compensation.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ● COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

*Competitive* *Compensation* *Levels*		● The Compensation Committee believes that an executive compensation program comprised principally of the above-described three elements is consistent with programs adopted by companies with which we compete for executive talent and furthers our stockholders’ interests by securing our executives’ services in the market for talent.
		● Our program is structured to meet the expectations of the rapidly changing environment in which we operate.
		● Our program is designed to motivate executive officers in a manner that advances the long-term interests of our stockholders while not encouraging excessive risk-taking.

*Compensation* *Mix*		● A significant proportion of the compensation for our named executive officers is performance-based and “at risk”—namely, the annual bonus and equity-based awards.
		● We believe this pay mix motivates the named executive officers to achieve selected key metrics.
		● Compensation in the form of, or based on the value of, our common stock can incentivize executives to create long-term stockholder value without encouraging them to take unnecessary risks.

For 2022, approximately 88% of our Chief Executive Officer’s direct compensation (defined as base salary, annual bonus and long-term incentive awards), and approximately 83% of the direct compensation for our other named executive officers, was “at risk,” as illustrated below. Long-term incentive compensation includes a pro-rata portion of the equity compensation from 2022 and prior years that vested or compensated the employee during 2022.

HOW WE DETERMINE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Processes and Compensation Decisions

The Compensation Committee monitors “best practices” and emerging trends in executive compensation, relies on the general business and industry knowledge and experience of its members, and uses informal market comparisons for specific positions as one of many factors in making compensation decisions.

In 2022, the Compensation Committee did not set compensation components to meet specific market levels and did not benchmark executive compensation against any specific peer group of companies. However, from time to time, the Compensation Committee finds it useful to look at compensation levels at various other companies in evaluating whether our compensation program, both as a whole and with respect to individual compensation elements, is reasonable and within a competitive range in order to more effectively attract and retain key executive talent in a highly competitive market.

In making decisions with respect to a named executive officer’s compensation, the Compensation Committee takes a holistic approach and, in addition to the above, considers several factors, including but not limited to:

●	the officer’s individual performance, level of responsibility, expertise and experience;

●	our recent performance;

●	whether a pay package for a specific named executive officer is aligned internally with the compensation levels of comparable executives within our organization;

●	management development and succession planning activities;

●	the size and mix of each element that forms the total compensation that may be awarded to the officer, including salary, bonus and long-term incentives; and

●	other compensation and benefits, including compensation payable to an officer under the officer’s employment agreement upon a termination of employment.

In addition, the work that our officers must do to successfully run our business in a highly competitive environment, while remaining committed to our culture and values, does not always readily lend itself to formulaic measurements, and a proper assessment may at times require the Compensation Committee to use its business judgment. The Compensation Committee does not consider past wealth accumulation in connection with its compensation decisions. Depending on the performance of our Company and the individual officer’s performance, as well as the various factors discussed above, the total compensation of our named executive officers may be within, below or above the market range for their positions. Each named executive officer is employed pursuant to agreements described under “Potential Payments or Benefits Upon Termination or Change in Control-Employment Agreements” below.

Role of Executive Officers in Determining Executive Compensation

In determining 2022 compensation levels, including the size and potential award opportunity of equity-based awards, if any, for each named executive officer (other than the Chief Executive Officer), the Compensation Committee also consulted with and considered the recommendations and input of Ms. Witz, our Chief Executive Officer. Ms. Witz’s recommendations were based, in part, on her assessment of the executive’s annual and long-term performance, as well as our Company-wide performance, including that of the business area that the executive leads. Ms. Witz did not provide input on her individual compensation levels.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ● COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Role of Outside Consultant

During 2022, the Compensation Committee continued to engage Semler Brossy Consulting Group, LLC (“Semler Brossy”) as an outside, independent compensation consultant to assist with the evaluation of our compensation for senior management. The Compensation Committee considered input from Semler Brossy as one factor in making decisions on compensation matters, along with input it receives from management, where appropriate, and its own judgment and experience. The Compensation Committee determined that Semler Brossy was independent (taking into consideration the six factors established by NASDAQ) and evaluated whether any of the work provided by Semler Brossy during 2022 raised any conflict of interest, and determined that it did not.

Other Considerations in Determining Executive Compensation

The Compensation Committee believes that it should retain discretion to adjust the compensation of a named executive officer from time to time to reward performance, to reflect the assumption of additional responsibilities, the occurrence of unanticipated circumstances, and in connection with the negotiation of new employment agreements or the renewal of employment agreements.

EACH ELEMENT OF OUR EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM AND HOW IT WORKS

Our practices with respect to the key compensation elements (base salary, annual bonus, and long-term incentives), as well as other elements of compensation, are described below, followed by a discussion of the specific factors considered in determining the levels of these compensation elements for the named executive officers for 2022.

Base Salary

Base salaries for the named executive officers are determined in accordance with the terms of their respective employment agreements. An executive’s base salary may also be increased as part of the Compensation Committee’s annual review of executive base salaries or at other times if the Compensation Committee determines that an adjustment is warranted to more appropriately compensate the executive for the executive’s day-to-day duties or due to pay levels for comparable positions in the market for executive talent. The base salaries set forth in the employment agreements and any increases over these amounts are determined by the Compensation Committee based on a variety of factors, including:

Factors Affecting Base Salary Considerations

● The nature and responsibility of the executive’s position and, to the extent available and deemed relevant, salary trends for persons in similar positions at comparable companies

● The expertise, demonstrated leadership, scope of responsibilities and job performance of the executive

● The executive’s total compensation, including other cash bonus awards and equity-based awards

● The competitiveness of the market for the executive’s services

● The desire to maintain internal pay equity among our executives with respect to base salaries

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ● COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The Compensation Committee does not apply specific weighting to any one factor in setting an executive officer’s base salary, and also considers the recommendations of our Chief Executive Officer (except as to her own compensation) when determining base salary amounts. The Compensation Committee believes that a competitive base salary is an important component of compensation by providing financial stability for the named executive officers while helping to attract and retain executive talent. In setting base salaries, the Compensation Committee also believes that, in order to better align the interests of our executives with those of our stockholders, the amount of base salary should be a relatively smaller portion of each named executive officer’s overall compensation package as compared to the executive’s annual bonus and equity-based compensation. Typically, after establishing a named executive’s officer base salary, salary increases are limited to cost-of-living adjustments, adjustments based on changes in the scope of the named executive officer’s responsibilities, and adjustments to align the named executive officer’s salary level with those of our other named executive officers.

Annual Incentives

Annual Incentives—Annual Bonus

● In considering annual bonuses, the Compensation Committee takes into consideration the key financial and operating metrics selected by the Compensation Committee

● The Compensation Committee has historically awarded annual bonuses in cash

● None of our named executive officers are entitled to a guaranteed or minimum annual bonus

● Annual bonuses approved by the Compensation Committee for 2022 were intended to link compensation with corporate performance

In 2022, the Compensation Committee assessed our performance using various criteria which we publicly report, such as net self-pay subscriber additions, advertising revenue, total revenue and adjusted EBITDA. A description of the methodologies used by the Compensation Committee to determine the annual bonuses, and the amount of the bonuses to our named executive officers, is discussed below under the heading “Fiscal Year 2022 Pay Results—Payment of Performance-Based Discretionary Annual Bonuses for 2022” and are reflected in the “Bonus” column of the 2022 Summary Compensation Table.

Long-term Equity-Based Compensation

The Compensation Committee determines the level of long-term incentive compensation in conjunction with its review and approval of the total compensation to be provided to named executive officers and the objectives of our overall executive compensation program. The Compensation Committee’s policy is generally to determine if any equity awards should be granted to the named executive officers at the time they enter into or renew their employment agreements and revisit the analysis as part of its annual review of executive compensation, with grants, if any, taking place during periods in which employees are permitted to trade in our common stock. Equity awards made by the Compensation Committee are in some cases intended to cover multiple years and, in other circumstances, are made as an annual grant depending on individual circumstances.

Why Long-Term Incentives Are a Key Aspect of Our Executive Compensation Program

Long-term incentive awards have historically represented a significant portion of our named executive officers’ total compensation opportunity. These awards are delivered through equity-based compensation that generally vest over a multi-year period to provide the named executive officers with a continuing stake in our success, align their interests with those of our stockholders, inspire dynamic leadership, reward actions that create sustainable stockholder value, and support our talent retention objectives through extended vesting requirements and forfeiture provisions.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ● COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

In recent years, the Compensation Committee adopted guidelines that the long-term equity compensation for our senior management should generally consisted of 25% stock options, 25% restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and 50% performance-based restricted stock units (“PRSUs”), subject to the discretion of the Compensation Committee in individual cases. The guidelines provide that stock option and RSU awards generally vest in installments on the anniversaries of the grant date, subject to the executive’s continued employment with the Company on the applicable vesting dates. The PRSU awards generally cliff vest, subject to the Company’s level of achievement of one or more financial and/or operating goals, or combination of goals, for a performance period set by the Compensation Committee. These performance metrics may include, among other things, return on net assets, return on stockholders’ equity, return on assets, return on capital, revenue, average revenue per subscriber, total stockholder returns, profit margin, earnings per share, free cash flow per share, net earnings, operating earnings, free cash flow, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, number of subscribers, growth of subscribers, operating expenses, capital expenses, subscriber acquisition costs or other metrics.

For grants made during 2022, the Compensation Committee selected two performance metrics for our PRSU awards to senior management. Fifty percent of the PRSUs are subject to achievement of a cumulative free cash flow target established by the Compensation Committee, measured over a performance period. The Compensation Committee chose free cash flow as a performance metric for PRSUs because it views free cash flow as an important operating metric. The settlement of PRSUs earned in respect of the applicable performance period may be subject to the executive’s continued employment with us for an additional vesting period, which varies for each executive officer, following the end of the applicable performance period. This additional time-based feature can serve as a retention tool and results in an equity award that has both time- and performance-based vesting elements.

The remaining 50% of the PRSUs will cliff vest after a three-year performance period based on the performance of our common stock relative to the companies included in the S&P 500 Index. We refer to this performance measure as a relative “TSR” or “total stockholder return” metric. The Compensation Committee chose relative TSR as the performance metric for these PRSUs, with the S&P 500 as the comparative group, because it is an objective and meaningful metric to evaluate our performance against the performance of other large companies and aligns the interests of our executive officers with the interests of our stockholders in creating long-term value. PRSUs based on the relative total stockholder return metric will only vest if our performance achieves at least the 25^thpercentile (resulting in 50% of the target PRSUs being earned), with a target payout (i.e., 100% of the target PRSUs) requiring performance at the 50^thpercentile. For our executive officers, the settlement of PRSUs earned in respect of the applicable three-year performance period is generally subject to the executive officer’s continued employment with us through the third anniversary of the date of their employment agreement. For the rest of our senior management, the settlement of PRSUs is subject to their continued employment through the date the total stockholder return performance is certified by the Compensation Committee or the third anniversary of the grant date, whichever is later. If our performance achieves the 75^thpercentile, then 150% of the target PRSUs will be earned. However, if our absolute TSR is negative, then the number of PRSUs earned cannot exceed 100% of the target PRSUs.

In individual circumstances, the Compensation Committee has varied its practices and has awarded stock options, RSUs and PRSUs to our executive officers and other members of senior management that are subject to a two-year or one-year performance period, generally tied to the term of the executive officer’s employment agreement. In 2022, Mr. Verbrugge received grants of stock options and RSUs in 2022 that vest over a one-year period and a two-year period and PRSUs that are subject to a performance metric measured over both a one-year period and a two-year period. Similarly, in 2022, Mr. Donnelly received grants of stock options and RSUs that vest over a two-year period and PRSUs that are subject to a performance metric measured over a two-year period. The specific amount of long-term equity grants awarded to our named executive officers is discussed below under the heading “Fiscal Year 2022 Pay Results—Long-Term Equity Grants for 2022.”

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ● COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

A summary of the terms applicable to grants of stock options, RSUs and PRSUs is set forth below:

*Stock Options*	*RSUs*	*PRSUs*
Stock options have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant and reward the executives only if the price of our stock increases following the date of grant.	RSUs align the interests of our executives with the interests of our stockholders by promoting the stability and retention of a high-performing executive team over the longer term. The value ultimately received by our executive officers as a result of the settlement of the RSUs is directly tied to our stock price on the date of settlement.	PRSUs establish a clear connection between the compensation of our executives and the achievement of performance goals.
Generally time-vest over a multi-year period in equal annual installments and have a ten-year term.	Time-vest on varying schedules. Some awards vest over a period of three years in equal annual or quarterly installments, and others cliff vest at predetermined dates.	Generally are earned at the end of the applicable performance period, subject to achievement of specified performance criteria measured over such applicable performance period, and vest subject to continued employment through a specified date.
Vesting is subject to the executive’s continued employment, incentivizing executives to remain with the Company and sustain increases in stockholder value over time.	Vesting is subject to the executive’s continued employment, incentivizing executives to remain with the Company and sustain stockholder value over time.	For PRSUs whose performance metric is based on our level of free cash flow, in order for these PRSUs to vest our free cash flow must meet or exceed 80% of the performance target during a multi-year performance period. 100% of the PRSUs granted will vest upon achievement of 100% or more of the performance target. No more than 100% of the PRSUs can vest even if the results exceed the performance target. The PRSUs will vest, on an interpolated basis, in respect of achievement between 80% and 100% of the performance target. Vesting is subject to the executive’s continued employment through a period following the end of the performance period, incentivizing executives to remain with the Company and sustain stockholder value over time. For PRSUs whose performance metric is based on the performance of our common stock relative to companies included in the S&P 500 Index, these PRSUs vest based on the percentile rank of our common stock’s TSR when ranked against the TSR of each company in the S&P 500 Index. PRSUs based on the relative total stockholder return metric will only vest if our performance achieves at least the 25^th percentile (resulting in 50% of the target PRSUs being earned), with a target payout (i.e., 100% of the target PRSUs) requiring performance at the 50^thpercentile. If our performance achieves the 75^thpercentile, then 150% of the target PRSUs will be earned. Payouts will be interpolated between points. If our absolute TSR is negative, then the number of PRSUs earned cannot exceed 100% of the target PRSUs. These PRSUs, to the extent earned following the performance period, become non-forfeitable, generally subject to the executive officer’s continuous employment through an additional period or, in the case of our other senior management, the date the Compensation Committee certifies the performance result or the final anniversary of the grant date, whichever is later.

2022 Base Salary Decisions

As part of Ms. Witz’s employment agreement, we agreed that her base salary would be reviewed no less frequently than annually and would be increased (but not decreased) from time to time with approval by our board of directors or the Compensation Committee and that such increase would be no less than 3% for each of the calendar years 2022 and 2023. Ms. Witz waived any increase in her base salary that would be required in the calendar years 2022 and 2023 after considering factors that were important to her leadership role and position, including showing solidarity and alignment with our broader employee population. The Compensation Committee did not request this waiver.

In December 2021, we entered into a new employment agreement with Mr. Inzerillo to serve as our Chief Product and Technology Officer effective as of January 10, 2022. Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Inzerillo’s annual base salary is $1,250,000.

In June 2022, we entered into a new employment agreement with Mr. Verbrugge in connection with his promotion to Chief Commercial Officer. In connection with his promotion, Mr. Verbrugge’s base salary was increased from $725,000 to $1,100,000.

Ms. Witz, Mr. Sullivan and Mr. Donnelly did not receive base salary increases in 2022.

Payment of Performance-Based Discretionary Annual Bonuses for 2022

In 2022, the Compensation Committee adopted a bonus plan that measured our performance using increases in net self-pay subscribers, advertising revenue, total revenue and adjusted EBITDA. This plan did not require the Compensation Committee to provide a guaranteed bonus or a minimum bonus to any of the named executive officers. This plan and the metrics contained in the plan was used by the Compensation Committee as its principal tool in evaluating and awarding bonuses for the named executive officers and in setting the aggregate bonus pool for employees.

(amounts in millions, except for net self-pay subscriber additions)

	Threshold @50% Payout		Target @100% Payout		Premium @120% Payout		Weight			2022 Result		Actual Weight
Net Self-Pay Subscriber Additions		450,000		500,000-600,000		750,000		20	%		348,000		0	%
Advertising Revenue	$	1,760	$	1,800 -$1,858	$	1,880		10	%	$	1,772		6.5	%
Total Revenue	$	8,700	$	9,000 -$9,105	$	9,185		30	%	$	9,003		30.1	%

Total								100	%		—		73.2	%

In 2022, we did not meet all of the goals set forth in our bonus plan. After carefully reviewing our 2022 performance against the key metrics contained in our budget and business plan and reviewing other considerations relating to our performance in 2022, the Compensation Committee:

●	approved a smaller cash pool for annual bonuses as compared to the employee bonus pool for 2021, which amount was divided among our employees (other than our named executive officers and senior management);

●	approved individual annual bonus amounts to each of the named executive officers, which amounts were less than the bonus amounts they received for 2021; and

●	reviewed and approved the payments to other members of our senior management who are not included as named executive officers in this proxy statement. Those bonus amounts were also reduced from what they received for 2021.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ● COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

For our named executive officers, the actual amount of the bonus paid to each of them was based on several factors, including the level of achievement of the performance metrics described above, our 2022 corporate performance more generally, qualitative factors such as individual performance and, with respect to all named executive officers other than herself, recommendations made by Ms. Witz. The qualitative factors taken into consideration in determining the bonus amounts for the named executive officers are set forth below. The bonus amount for our Chief Executive Officer is discussed below under the heading “2022 Compensation Snapshot: Compensation of Our Chief Executive Officer.”

Mr. Sullivan was awarded a bonus for his contributions during the year, including:

●	his role in managing our fixed and variable costs;

●	managing our stock buyback program;

●	leading our marketing campaigns and new business initiatives; and

●	overseeing our connected vehicle, commercial, aviation, marine and fleet businesses.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ● COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Mr. Donnelly was awarded a bonus for his contributions during the year, including:

●	his regular on-going contributions in providing effective legal support, including the management of various complex legal and regulatory issues;

●	providing sound and timely advice to senior management and our board of directors regarding various governance and compliance matters;

●	managing our litigation in the face of the increasing complexity of our business;

Based on the foregoing, the Compensation Committee approved the specific annual bonus amounts set forth in the Summary Compensation Table under the “Bonus” column for each of the above named executive officers. Further information on the relationship between the Company’s adjusted EBITDA performance and compensation actually paid to our named executive officers can be found in the section titled “Pay Versus Performance”.

Long-Term Equity Grants for 2022

We make grants of equity-based compensation to incentivize our executives to continue providing meaningful and effective services to our customers and stockholders. The long-term nature of the awards serves as our primary retention tool.

During 2022, our long-term equity grants generally consisted of stock options, RSUs and PRSUs (except for Ms. Witz and Mr. Sullivan who, as explained below, received no long-term equity grants in 2022). The target award value of the options, RSUs and PRSUs granted was determined by the Compensation Committee (with the assistance of our Chief Executive Officer). The number of stock options granted was equal to the total target value of the executive’s individual stock option grant calculated under the Black-Scholes-Merton model. The number of RSUs and PRSUs granted was equal to the total target value of the executive’s individual RSU and PRSU grant divided by the average closing price of our common stock reported on NASDAQ for the 20-trading days preceding, but not including, the grant date of the award.

The grant date fair value of the awards is identified in the Summary Compensation Table under the “Stock Awards” and the “Option Awards” columns, and in the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards in 2022” table. The specific grants made to each executive are described below.

In December 2021, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Inzerillo to serve as our Chief Product and Technology Officer effective as of January 10, 2022 and continuing through January 10, 2025. In connection with his agreement, we granted Mr. Inzerillo stock options and RSUs with a grant date fair value equal to $2,250,000 and $4,250,000, respectively. The first tranche of these stock options and RSUs vested on February 2, 2023, and the remaining tranches shall vest in equal installments on February 2, 2024 and February 2, 2025, subject to Mr. Inzerillo’s continued employment on each of these dates. We also granted PRSUs to Mr. Inzerillo with a target award value equal to $4,500,000. Fifty percent of these PRSUs are eligible to be earned based on the level of achievement of the cumulative free cash flow target established by our Compensation Committee for the two-year performance period consisting of the calendar years ending December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2023, and subject to Mr. Inzerillo’s continued employment through January 10, 2025. The remaining fifty percent of the PRSUs awarded to Mr. Inzerillo will be earned based on the relative TSR performance of our common stock during the three-year performance period commencing on January 1, 2022 and ending on December 31, 2024, and subject to his continued employment through January 10, 2025.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ● COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

In February 2022, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Verbrugge to continue serving as our Executive Vice President & Division President Connected Vehicle. In connection with this agreement, we granted Mr. Verbrugge stock options and RSUs with a grant date fair value equal to $875,000 and $875,000, respectively. These stock options and RSUs vested on February 9, 2023. We also granted PRSUs to Mr. Verbrugge with a target award value equal to $1,750,000. Fifty percent of these PRSUs were earned on February 9, 2023 based on the Company’s achievement of a one-year free cash flow target established by our Compensation Committee for 2022. The remaining fifty percent of the PRSUs awarded to Mr. Verbrugge were also earned on February 9, 2023 based on the relative TSR performance of our common stock during 2022. These one year performance-based awards were the product of a negotiation with Mr. Verbrugge, including a negotiation regarding the volatility of our common stock and the value of these performance-based equity awards in the near and mid-term. The limited performance period of these awards was also factored into the awards granted to him in June 2022 which are described below.

In June 2022, we entered into a new employment agreement with Mr. Verbrugge in connection with his promotion to Chief Commercial Officer continuing through June 27, 2024. In connection with this new agreement, we granted Mr. Verbrugge stock options and RSUs with a grant date fair value equal to $1,250,000 and $1,250,000, respectively. Fifty percent of these stock options and RSUs shall vest subject to Mr. Verbrugge’s continued employment through July 29, 2023 and the remaining fifty percent of the stock options and RSUs awarded to Mr. Verbrugge shall vest subject to his continued employment through June 27, 2024. We also granted PRSUs to Mr. Verbrugge with a target award value equal to $2,500,000. Fifty percent of these PRSUs are eligible to be earned based on the level of achievement of the cumulative free cash flow target established by our Compensation Committee for the two-year performance period consisting of the calendar years ending December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2023, and subject to Mr. Verbrugge’s continued employment through June 27, 2024. The remaining fifty percent of the PRSUs awarded to Mr. Verbrugge will be earned based on the relative TSR performance of our common stock during the two-year performance period commencing on January 1, 2022 and ending on December 31, 2023, and subject to his continued employment through June 27, 2024.

In November 2022, we entered into a new employment agreement with Mr. Donnelly to continue serving as our Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, through January 2, 2025. In connection with his new agreement, we granted Mr. Donnelly stock options and RSUs with a grant date fair value equal to $2,340,000 and $1,200,000, respectively. These stock options and RSUs shall vest in equal installments on November 21, 2023 and January 2, 2025, subject to his continued employment on the applicable vesting date. We also granted PRSUs to Mr. Donnelly with a target award value equal to $2,460,000. Fifty percent of these PRSUs are eligible to be earned based on the level of achievement of the cumulative free cash flow target established by our Compensation Committee for the two-year performance period consisting of the calendar years ending December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2024, and subject to Mr. Donnelly’s continued employment through January 2, 2025. The remaining fifty percent of the PRSUs awarded to Mr. Donnelly will be earned based on the relative TSR performance of our common stock during the two-year performance period commencing on January 1, 2023 and ending on December 31, 2024, and subject to his continued employment through January 2, 2025.

There were no long-term equity grants made to Ms. Witz or Mr. Sullivan in 2022. They each previously received an equity award that was intended to cover a multi-year period, as further described under “Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End 2022”. Further information on the relationship between the Company’s TSR (including peer group TSR) and compensation actually paid to our named executive officers can be found in the section titled “Pay Versus Performance”.

Dividend Equivalent Units

Dividend Equivalent Units (“DEUs”) are granted to each executive if, on any date while RSUs or PRSUs are outstanding, we pay a dividend on our common stock (other than a dividend payable in common stock). The number of RSUs and PRSUs granted to the executive are, as of the record date for such dividend payment, increased by a number of RSUs or PRSUs, as applicable, equal to: (a) the product of (x) the number of RSUs or

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ● COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

PRSUs held by the executive as of such record date, multiplied by (y) the per share amount of any cash dividend (or, in the case of any dividend payable, in whole or in part, other than in cash, the per share value of such dividend, as determined in good faith by us), divided by (b) the average closing price of a share of our common stock on NASDAQ on the twenty trading days preceding, but not including, such record date. DEUs are subject to the same vesting and other terms as the related RSUs or PRSUs, as applicable. All DEUs are granted pursuant to the terms of the 2015 Plan.

OTHER BENEFITS PROVIDED TO NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

Retirement and Other Employee Benefits

We maintain broad-based benefits for all employees, including health and dental insurance, life and disability insurance and a 401(k) savings plan, including a matching component for that plan. Our named executive officers are eligible to participate in all of our employee benefit plans on the same basis as other employees.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ● COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Our 401(k) savings plan allows eligible employees to voluntarily contribute from 1% to 50% of their pre-tax eligible earnings, subject to certain statutorily defined limits. We match 50% of an employee’s voluntary contributions per pay period on the first 6% of an employee’s pre-tax salary up to a maximum of 3% of eligible compensation. Employer matching contributions under the plan vest at a rate of 33.33% for each year of employment and are fully vested after three years of employment for all current and future contributions.

Deferred Compensation Plan

We also maintain the Sirius XM Holdings Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan for employees at the level of vice president and above, which provides a tax-efficient method for participants to defer certain portions of their compensation. The Deferred Compensation Plan is unsecured, and participation is voluntary. We do not provide any matching contributions to the Deferred Compensation Plan and do not guarantee above-market returns. The appreciation, if any, in the account balances of plan participants is due solely to contributions by participants and the underlying performance of the investment funds selected by the participants. A description of the Deferred Compensation Plan is included under “Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation.” The contributions, earnings and account balances for the named executive officers in the Deferred Compensation Plan are described in the “Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation” table.

Perquisites and Other Benefits for Named Executive Officers

The Compensation Committee supports providing other benefits to named executive officers that are almost identical to those offered to our other full time employees and are provided to similarly situated executives at companies with which we compete for executive talent.

In connection with her employment agreement, we entered into a Use of Private Aircraft Agreement with Ms. Witz that became effective on January 1, 2021. Pursuant to that agreement, Ms. Witz is entitled to personal use of a private aircraft arranged by us for up to 30 hours of flight time per year through the earlier of (i) December 31, 2023 or (ii) the termination of her employment. Ms. Witz incurs taxable income, calculated in accordance with the Standard Industry Fare Level formula or a comparable successor provision, for any personal use of such private aircraft in accordance with this policy. We have no obligation to provide Ms. Witz with any “gross up” in respect of any taxes related to this benefit. Pursuant to her employment agreement, we also provide Ms. Witz with a car allowance up to $2,000 per month for commuting to and from her home to the Company’s offices or will provide Ms. Witz with a personal driver for purposes of commuting.

Payments to Named Executive Officers Upon Termination or Change in Control

The employment agreements with our named executive officers provide for severance payments upon an involuntary termination of employment without “cause” or a termination of employment for “good reason” (as each term is defined in their employment agreements). While these arrangements vary among executives due to individual negotiations, none of our employment agreements with our named executive officers include any golden parachute excise tax gross-ups. The material terms of these agreements are described under “Potential Payments or Benefits Upon Termination or Change in Control—Employment Agreements.”

None of the employment agreements for the named executive officers provide for any payments solely due to a change in control. Under the terms of the 2015 Plan, if the employment of any of our named executive officers is terminated by us without cause, or by the executive for good reason, within two years following a change in control, then in accordance with the 2015 Plan, their equity awards are subject to accelerated vesting.

These arrangements are intended to retain highly qualified executives who could have other job alternatives that may appear to them, in the absence of these arrangements, to be less risky, and such arrangements are designed to allow the executives to focus exclusively on our interests.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ● COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

PERFORMANCE ACHIEVEMENT IN RESPECT OF 2022 PERFORMANCE YEAR(S)

Vesting of PRSUs Whose Performance Period Included the Year Ending December 31, 2022—Certain PRSUs granted by the Compensation Committee are subject to achievement of a cumulative free cash flow target established by the Compensation Committee, measured over a two-year performance period. In early 2023, the Compensation Committee certified the achievement of the free cash flow performance goal for PRSUs that included the year ending December 31, 2022 as part the performance period. Free cash flow performance for the period exceeded the performance goal, which resulted in the vesting of the PRSUs at 100%. The settlement of these PRSUs is generally subject to the executive’s continued employment with us for an additional vesting period which varies for each executive officer.

Vesting of Relative TSR PRSUs Whose Performance Period Included the Year Ending December 31, 2022—The vesting of certain PRSUs granted by the Compensation Committee is conditioned upon a two-year or one-year total shareholder return of the Company’s common stock relative to the other entities in the S&P 500 Index. In early 2023, the Compensation Committee certified the Company’s percentile rank relative to the other entities in the S&P 500 Index for the one-year and the two-year periods ending December 31, 2022. The percentile rank of the TSR of the Company’s common stock relative to other entities in the S&P 500 Index for the two-year period ending December 31, 2022 was the 31st percentile, and the percentile rank of the TSR of the Company’s common stock relative to other entities in the S&P 500 Index for the one-year period ending December 31, 2022 was the 65th percentile. The payout percentage for TSR PRSUs having a two-year performance period ending December 31, 2022 was 62%, and the payout percentage for TSR PRSUs having a one-year performance period ending December 31, 2022 was 100%. The settlement of these PRSUs is generally subject to the executive’s continued employment with us for an additional vesting period which varies for each executive officer.

2023 COMPENSATION CONSIDERATIONS

The Compensation Committee plans to continue to review our executive compensation program in 2023 with a view toward ensuring that it continues to provide effective incentives that motivate the achievement of financial and operating results and is properly sized given the scope of our business. The Compensation Committee believes that a metric-based program incentivize our executives to achieve operating and financial results and the Committee intends to continue incorporating performance-based elements into its annual bonus program for 2023. In addition, the Compensation Committee may reward senior management for performance against individual goals linked to our performance. The Compensation Committee will also maintain its ability to apply discretion to awards based on its business judgement of our results.

The Compensation Committee has chosen to award equity-based compensation to those executive officers who the Compensation Committee believes will have a significant impact on our financial, operational and strategic goals. The specific mix of equity-based compensation granted will be determined by the Compensation Committee with the assistance of our Chief Executive Officer (for all roles other than her own) and by using their collective informed judgment, taking into account the executive’s role and responsibilities and our overall performance.

STOCK OWNERSHIP REQUIREMENT

We do not require that executives accumulate and maintain a minimum level of stock ownership in us.

CLAWBACK/RECOUPMENT

Any compensation or equity awards provided to the named executive officers are subject to clawback as may be required pursuant to any law, regulation or stock exchange listing requirement. Our employment agreements with our named executive officers include provisions permitting us to clawback compensation to the extent it may be required pursuant to any law, regulation or stock exchange listing requirement. The SEC recently adopted final rulemaking with respect to issuer recoupment policies that will require further rulemaking by Nasdaq. We intend to adopt a compliant clawback policy when the Nasdaq rulemaking regarding recoupment policies becomes effective.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ● COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

ANTI-HEDGING AND PLEDGING POLICY

Our officers, directors and employees are prohibited from engaging in short sales of our securities and from engaging in transactions in publicly-traded derivative securities, such as options, puts, calls and other derivative securities based on the value of our securities, including any hedging, monetization or similar transactions designed to decrease the risks associated with holding our securities, such as zero-cost collars and forward sales contracts. As a result, our officers, directors and employees cannot insulate themselves from the effects of poor stock price performance. In addition, our officers, directors and employees are prohibited from pledging our securities as collateral for any loan or holding our securities in a margin account.

COMPENSATION RISK ASSESSMENT

The Compensation Committee reviews the risk-reward balance of our compensation programs and does not believe that any risks that may arise from our compensation policies and practices are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us. The Compensation Committee considered various factors that have the effect of mitigating compensation-related risks and have reviewed our compensation policies and practices for our employees, including the elements of our executive compensation programs, to determine whether any portion of such compensation encourages excessive risk taking. As part of its role in assessing risk(s) related to compensation, the Compensation Committee conducts a risk review on an annual basis, which includes a review of any potential existing risks and any potential emerging risks relating to compensation and human capital management more generally. The Company’s Chief People + Culture Officer provides reports to the Compensation Committee on topics such as diversity, inclusion, retention of key employees and education, training initiatives and related matters. The Company’s Chief People + Culture Officer may also communicate with the Chair of the Compensation Committee to discuss these matters and provide updates on topics relating to our workforce.

POLICY WITH RESPECT TO SECTION 162(m) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE

The Compensation Committee considers the deductibility of compensation as one factor in determining the structure of compensation awards. The Compensation Committee also looks at other factors in making its decisions, and believes that it is important to retain flexibility in designing compensation programs that are in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, even if such compensation is not deductible for tax purposes. This flexibility may include amending or modifying certain elements of our compensation programs that the Compensation Committee determines to be consistent with our business needs, even if such compensation is not tax deductible. The Compensation Committee does not believe that the lost deduction on compensation payable in excess of $1 million for the named executive officers is material relative to the benefit of being able to attract and retain talented management; however, the Compensation Committee intends to continue its pay-for-performance philosophy and continue incorporating performance-based elements into our executive compensation programs.

Compensation Committee Report

The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis with management. Based on such review and discussion, the Compensation Committee recommended to the board of directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this proxy statement and incorporated by reference into our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

⁽¹⁾	The amounts reflected in this column are the gross amounts of each named executive officer’s annual bonus award payable in respect of the fiscal year to which such amount relates. See the discussion under the heading “Fiscal Year 2022 Pay Results—Payment of Performance-Based Discretionary Annual Bonuses for 2022” for additional details on bonus awards for 2022.
⁽²⁾	The aggregate grant date fair value of stock option, RSU and PRSU awards were computed in accordance with FASB ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. The assumptions used in the valuation of the stock options are discussed in Note 15 to our audited consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The target award value for the PRSUs granted to Messrs. Inzerillo, Verbrugge and Donnelly was based on the probable outcome of the performance conditions applicable to such PRSUs as of the date of grant, which was equal to the target level. Assuming the highest level of performance achievement as of the grant date, the target award value of the PRSUs would have been $4,500,005 for Mr. Inzerillo; $4,249,996 for Mr. Verbrugge; and $2,459,998 for Mr. Donnelly.
⁽³⁾	We do not provide above-market or preferential earnings on deferred compensation.
⁽⁴⁾	For each named executive officer, the amount in the “All Other Compensation” column for 2022 includes matching contributions by us in the amount of $9,150 under our 401(k) savings plan and DEUs granted with respect to unvested RSU awards. In connection with the payments of our quarterly dividends in the amount of $0.27196 per share on February 25, 2022, which included a special dividend of $0.25 per share, in the amount of $0.0219615 per share on May 25, 2022 and August 31, 2022, and in the amount of $0.0242 per share on November 30, 2022, our named executive officers were credited with DEUs in the form of RSUs in respect of their unvested stock awards pursuant to the terms of the applicable award agreements. The values of such DEUs were calculated using a twenty-day average price of our common stock prior to the record dates for such dividends. The value of the DEUs granted for each of the named officers was as follows: Ms. Witz: $1,073,504; Mr. Sullivan: $462,510; Mr. Inzerillo: $484,616; Mr. Verbrugge: $412,620; and Mr. Donnelly: $240,058.
	For Ms. Witz, the amount in the “All Other Compensation” column for 2022 also includes $187,745, which represents the aggregate incremental cost to us in 2022 associated with her personal use of a private aircraft arranged by us and $4,004 for costs of a car and driver or other travel related expenses associated with travel to and from her home to the Company’s offices in New York.

⁽¹⁾	The PRSUs granted to Mr. Inzerillo on February 2, 2022 were in connection with his employment agreement dated January 10, 2022. The PRSUs granted to Mr. Verbrugge on February 9, 2022 were in connection with his employment agreement dated February 9, 2022. The PRSUs granted to Mr. Verbrugge on July 29, 2022 were in connection with his employment agreement dated June 28, 2022. The PRSUs granted to Mr. Donnelly on November 21, 2022 were in connection with his employee agreement dated the same date.
	The PRSUs are earned subject to achievement of as follows: For Mr. Inzerillo, 50% of his PRSUs are subject to the achievement of a cumulative free cash flow target, established by the Compensation Committee, measured over a two-year performance period; and 50% of his PRSUs are subject to the achievement of a three-year TSR of the Company relative to the other companies in the S&P 500 Index as in effect on the first day of the performance period. For Mr. Verbrugge, in regards to his PRSUs granted on February 9, 2022, 50% of his PRSUs were subject to the achievement of a free cash flow target, established by the Compensation Committee, measured over a one-year performance period; and 50% of his PRSUs were subject to the achievement of a one-year TSR of the Company relative to the other companies in the S&P 500 Index as in effect on the first day of the performance period. In regards to his PRSUs granted on July 29, 2022, 50% of his PRSUs are subject to the achievement of a cumulative free cash flow target, established by the Compensation Committee, measured over a two-year performance period; and 50% of his PRSUs are subject to the achievement of a two-year TSR of the Company relative to the other companies in the S&P 500 Index as in effect on the first day of the performance period. For Mr. Donnelly, 50% of his PRSUs are subject to the achievement of a cumulative free cash flow target, established by the Compensation Committee, measured over a two-year performance period; and 50% of his PRSUs are subject to the achievement of a two-year TSR of the Company relative to the other companies in the S&P 500 Index as in effect on the first day of the performance period. The PRSUs whose achievement is based on free cash flow will vest in full upon achievement of 100% or more of the free cash flow target. If the level of free cash flow falls between 80% and 100% of the free cash flow target, then the number of PRSUs that will vest will be determined by straight line interpolation between those percentages. If the level of free cash flow is below 80% of the target, then none of the PRSUs will vest. The PRSUs whose achievement is based on TSR will vest in full if the TSR percentile of the common stock of the Company equals 50% relative to its ranking within the S&P 500 Index. If the TSR percentile of the common stock of the Company equals or exceeds 75% relative to its ranking within the S&P 500 Index, the payout percentage will be 150% of the target PRSUs. If the percentile falls between 25% and 75%, then the number of PRSUs that will vest will be determined by straight line interpolation between those percentages. If the percentile rank is less than 25%, the payout percentage will equal zero. However, if our absolute TSR is negative, then the number of PRSUs earned cannot exceed 100% of the target PRSUs. In each case the vesting of the PRSUs is also subject to the named executive officer’s continued employment on the applicable vesting date.

⁽²⁾	Amounts also include DEUs granted to the executive pursuant to the terms of the award agreements governing each RSU or PRSU, as applicable, to reflect the payment of dividends on our common stock. DEUs vest on the same terms as the related RSUs or PRSUs, as applicable. All DEUs are granted pursuant to the terms of the 2015 Plan. Our practice with respect to crediting DEUs is described in more detail on page 47.
	Amounts under “Market Value of Shares or Units of Stock That Have Not Vested” and “Equity Incentive Plan Awards: Market or Payout Value of Unearned Shares, Units or Other Rights That Have Not Vested” were calculated based on the closing price on NASDAQ of our common stock on December 30, 2022 of $5.84.

⁽¹⁾	The amounts include certain base salary amounts that are listed in the “Salary” column of the Summary Compensation Table and cash bonus amounts that are listed in the “Bonus” column of the Summary Compensation Table. This includes amounts earned during fiscal 2023 but credited to such executive officers’ deferred compensation accounts after the end of fiscal 2022. For Ms. Witz the amount includes $2,031,300 of her 2022 annual bonus, for Mr. Sullivan the amount includes $937,500 of his 2022 annual bonus, for Mr. Verbrugge the amount includes $600,000 of his 2022 annual bonus, and for Mr. Donnelly the amount includes $775,000 of his 2022 annual bonus.
⁽²⁾	Amounts in this column are not reported as compensation for fiscal year 2022 in the Summary Compensation Table since they do not reflect above-market or preferential earnings. Deferrals may be allocated among investment options that are similar to the investment options available under the Sirius XM 401(k) Savings Plan. Of the available investment options, the one-year rate of return during 2022 ranged from -4.86% to -40.05%.
⁽³⁾	Year-end balances in this column include the deferral amount from the executive’s 2022 bonus paid in 2023.

The Deferred Compensation Plan provides a tax-efficient method for participants to defer certain portions of their compensation. Participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan is available to certain of our officers, including our named executive officers, and members of our board of directors.

Our named executive officers are eligible to participate on the same terms as other eligible employees. Although the Compensation Committee deemed the Deferred Compensation Plan to be a benefit to participants, it is not included in any quantitative valuation with respect to the three main components of our executive compensation packages, because participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan, and to what extent, is at each participant’s discretion and there is no matching contribution from us at this time.

Pursuant to the Deferred Compensation Plan, eligible employees may elect to defer up to 50% of their cash-paid base salary and up to 75% of their annual cash bonus. We may elect to make additional contributions beyond amounts deferred by participants, but we are under no obligation to do so. At the time of making a deferral election, participants designate the time and form of the distribution of deferrals to be made for the year to which that election relates. Distributions may occur earlier upon a change in control or a termination of employment, subject to certain conditions provided for under the Deferred Compensation Plan and Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

Participants have the opportunity to designate the investment funds to which the deferred amounts are to be credited. All investment gains and losses in a participant’s account under the Deferred Compensation Plan are immediately vested and entirely based upon the investment selections made by the participant. We do not pay guaranteed, above-market or preferential earnings on this deferred compensation. The available investment choices are similar to the choices available under the Sirius XM Radio 401(k) Savings Plan. Participants may change the investment selections for new payroll deferrals as frequently as each semi-monthly pay cycle. Investment selections for existing account balances may be changed daily. Any changes (whether to new deferrals or existing balances) may be made through an internet site or telephone call center maintained by the plan’s third-party record keeper. We have established a grantor (or “rabbi”) trust to facilitate payment of our obligations under the Deferred Compensation Plan.

Potential Payments or Benefits Upon Termination or Change in Control

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

We have employment agreements with each of our named executive officers that contain provisions regarding payments or benefits upon a termination of employment. We do not have any provisions in any of our employment agreements for the named executive officers that provide for any payments solely in the event of a change in control.

Ms. Witz is also entitled to participate in any bonus plans generally applicable to our executive officers, with an annual target bonus equal to three times her base salary.

If Ms. Witz’s employment is terminated by us without “cause” or she terminates her employment for “good reason” (each as described in her employment agreement), then, subject to her execution of a release of claims and her compliance with certain restrictive covenants contained in her employment agreement, we are obligated to (1) pay Ms. Witz a lump sum amount equal to one and one-half times the sum of (x) her annual base salary in effect as of the termination date plus (y) the greater of her target bonus or the last annual bonus paid (or due and payable) to her, (2) pay Ms. Witz a pro-rated bonus for the year in which her termination occurs (based on actual achievement of applicable performance criteria) and any earned but unpaid annual bonus with respect to the year prior to the year of termination and (3) continue her health insurance benefits for eighteen months and her life insurance benefits for one year following her termination date, in each case, at our expense.

TREATMENT OF EQUITY-BASED AWARDS UPON TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT

Pursuant to the terms of the applicable award agreements, the vesting of any unvested RSUs, PRSUs and stock options held by the named executive officers will accelerate upon a termination (i) by us without “Cause”, (ii) by the named executive officer for “Good Reason”, or (iii) a result of the named executive officer’s death or disability. With respect to outstanding PRSU awards, if any such termination of employment occurs during an active performance period, then the named executive officer will vest in the number of PRSUs subject to the applicable award agreement (or with respect to the PRSU awards that are based on cumulative free cash flow or TSR, at target level). If such termination of employment occurs following the end of the applicable performance period, but before the date on which such PRSUs have been settled, then the named executive will vest in the number of PRSUs determined to have been earned based on actual performance achieved during the performance period. In order to receive any accelerated vesting in connection with a termination of employment, named executive officers must execute a release of claims (except we may waive such requirement in the event of the named executive officer’s death) and comply with certain restrictive covenants contained in their employment agreements. If the named executive officer’s employment terminates for any other reason, all unvested equity awards that are outstanding will be forfeited.

⁽¹⁾	Any severance payment due is required to be paid in a lump sum.
⁽²⁾	All amounts were calculated based on the closing price on NASDAQ of our common stock on December 30, 2022 of $5.84. The accelerated vesting of options is valued at (a) the difference between the December 30, 2022 closing price and the exercise price of the options multiplied by (b) the number of shares of common stock underlying the options. The accelerated vesting of RSUs and PRSUs is valued at the closing price on NASDAQ of our common stock on December 30, 2022 of $5.84 multiplied by the number of shares subject to the applicable RSUs and PRSUs. The PRSU vest assumes 100% of target level achievement for the performance period during which a termination occurs. This amount assumes that the entire PRSU award provided for under their employment agreements would have become vested at target level. The amounts also include DEUs.
⁽³⁾	Assumes that health benefits would be continued under COBRA for eighteen months.
⁽⁴⁾	We do not provide any tax gross-ups. In the event a named executive officer would be subject to an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code (imposed on individuals who receive compensation in connection with a change of control that exceeds certain specified limits), the benefits to the named executive officer will be reduced to the extent that such benefits do not trigger the excise tax, unless the named executive officer would retain greater value (on an after-tax basis) by receiving all benefits and paying applicable excise, income and payroll taxes. Amounts shown are based on preliminary calculations that indicate that, with the exception of Ms. Witz, Mr. Sullivan and Mr. Inzerillo, the amounts payable to each named executive would not be subject to the excise tax. Estimated amounts may materially differ from any actual amounts ultimately paid.
⁽⁵⁾	Based on preliminary calculations, the amounts payable to Ms. Witz in the event of her termination following a change in control would be subject to an excise tax of $4,005,131. The total amount shown does not reflect, in the event of Ms. Witz’s termination following a change in control, a reduction in the payments as a result of the projected amount of the applicable excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code.
⁽⁶⁾	Based on preliminary calculations, the total amount shown reflects that, in the event of Mr. Sullivan’s termination following a change in control, the payments would be reduced by $2,050,343 to avoid the applicable excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code in accordance with his employment agreement.
⁽⁷⁾	Based on preliminary calculations, the amounts payable to Mr. Inzerillo in the event of his termination following a change in control would be subject to an excise tax of $1,723,224. The total amount shown does not reflect, in the event of Mr. Inzerillo’s termination following a change in control, a reduction in the payments as a result of the projected amount of the applicable excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ● 2022 CEO PAY RATIO

2022 CEO Pay Ratio

As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship of the annual total compensation of our employees to the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer.

We determined that, as of December 31, 2022 (the date we identified for purposes of determining our employee population), our employee population consisted of approximately 5,883 individuals, of which 240 employees were located outside the United States. This population consisted of our full-time, part-time, seasonal and temporary workers and did not include any individuals classified as independent contractors. In accordance with the de minimus exemption under Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we excluded the group of 240 non-U.S. employees from our total employee population, specifically: 14 employees from Britain, four employees from Belgium, nine employees from Canada, one employee from Italy, one employee from Panama, two employees from Malaysia, six employees from the Philippines, and 203 employees from Romania. These non-U.S. individuals represented approximately 4% of our total estimated employee population as of December 31, 2022 of 5,883 individuals. After excluding the non-U.S. employees and the current Chief Executive Officer, we included 5,642 employees in our calculations to identify the median employee.

To identify the median employee from this employee population, we calculated each employee’s total compensation by reviewing employees’ W-2 wages for 2022. Given the even number of employees included in our calculation, we were unable to identify an employee who fell at the actual “median” of the employee population. Once we identified the two employees who fell at the mid-point of our employee population, we calculated all of the elements of both employees’ compensation for the 2022 fiscal year in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K, and took the average of those two numbers in order to calculate the “annual total compensation” for purposes of calculating the required pay ratio. This resulted in an estimated annual total compensation of $133,411, which we believe reasonably portrays the median level of our employees’ overall compensation profile. To calculate the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, we used the amount reported for Ms. Witz in the “Total” column of the 2022 Summary Compensation Table included in this proxy statement, which was $7,087,004.

Based on Ms. Witz’s annual total compensation compared to the annual total compensation of our estimated median employee, our estimated pay ratio is 53:1.

This pay ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules based on our payroll and employment records and the methodology described above. The SEC rules for identifying the median compensated employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their compensation practices. The pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above, as other companies may have different employment and compensation practices and may utilize different methodologies, exclusions, estimates and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios.

Verbrugge, (ii) for fiscal year 2021, Dara F. Altman, Patrick L. Donnelly, Scott A. Greenstein and Sean S. Sullivan, and (iii) for fiscal year 2020, Patrick L. Donnelly, David J. Frear, Scott A. Greenstein, Sean S. Sullivan and Jennifer C. Witz.
⁽⁴⁾	The dollar amounts reported in column (e) represent the average amount of CAP to the non-PEO NEOs specified in footnote (3) as a group as further described below. The amounts listed do not reflect the actual compensation actually earned, realized or received by the non-PEO NEOs as a group during the applicable year.
⁽⁵⁾	The calculation of CAP uses as a starting point the “Total” compensation reported in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable fiscal year, with certain adjustments (i.e., additions or subtractions) with respect to the fair value of equity awards. The methodology used to develop the valuation assumptions as of each applicable measurement date is consistent with those disclosed at the time of grant.

⁽⁹⁾	We determined Adjusted EBITDA to be the most important financial measure used to link our performance to CAP for our PEO and Non-PEO NEOs for fiscal year 2022. Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP and is therefore a “Non-GAAP” measure. Refer to the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Key Financial and Operating Metrics—Glossary” section in our annual reports for each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022, December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 for a discussion of such Non-GAAP financial measure, and a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure. We may determine a different financial performance measure to be the most important financial performance measure in future years.

LIST OF MOST IMPORTANT FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE MEASURES TO DETERMINE 2022 CAP

As described in more detail in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section, our executive compensation program reflects a pay-for-performance philosophy, and includes performance metrics that are intended to incentivize our NEOs and align our NEOs’ interests with those of our stockholders. With respect to the 2022 fiscal year, the most important financial performance measures used to link executive CAP to our performance overall are as follows:

Most Important Performance Measures

Total Revenue

Adjusted EBITDA

Free Cash Flow

Net Self-Pay Subscriber Additions

Relative Total Shareholder Return

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ● PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE TABLE

ANALYSIS OF THE INFORMATION PRESENTED IN THE PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE TABLE

As described in more detail in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section, our executive compensation program reflects a pay-for-performance philosophy and incorporates a variety of performance-based metrics and objectives that are intended to align NEOs’ interests with the interests of our stockholders. We generally seek to incentivize long-term performance, but do not specifically design compensation to align the Company’s performance measures with compensation that is actually paid (as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K) for a particular year. The Company is providing the following descriptions of the relationships between information presented in the Pay Versus Performance Table.

Compensation Actually Paid and Cumulative TSR

Our stock price and total shareholder return remained essentially unchanged during 2020, 2021 and 2022. The Company paid a special dividend of $0.25 per share in 2022, returning an additional $1 billion to stockholders. While total shareholder return during this period may not have reflected operational and financial improvements, the amount of CAP to our PEOs and the average amount of CAP to the non-PEO NEOs as a group was generally aligned with our cumulative TSR over the three years presented in the Pay Versus Performance Table. We believe this alignment is a result of the fact that a significant portion of our NEOs’ pay is comprised of equity-based awards, and the calculations for CAP to these individuals for the applicable years includes the fair value of equity-based compensation awards.

Cumulative TSR of the Company and Cumulative TSR of the Peer Group

As illustrated in the Pay Versus Performance Table above, the Company’s cumulative TSR underperformed when viewed against the S&P 500 Media & Entertainment Index during the three years presented in the table. During the three-year period ended December 31, 2022, the performance of our common stock, including dividends, underperformed the S&P 500 Media & Entertainment Index on a cumulative basis by approximately 5 percentage points.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION ● PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE TABLE

Stockholder Return Performance Table

	S&P 500 Media & Entertainment Index	Sirius XM Holdings Inc.
December 31, 2019	$100.00	$100.00
December 31, 2020	$131.17	$ 89.88
December 31, 2021	$166.16	$ 90.57
December 31, 2022	$ 92.95	$ 87.65

We determined to change the published industry index used for the required performance graph as the S&P 500 Media and Entertainment Index more appropriately reflects the companies with which we compete, including for talent.

Our management believes that in 2022 our common stock may have been adversely affected by certain macroeconomic conditions, particularly factors affecting the automotive industry. In addition, we believe that during the three-year measurement period, the price of our common stock may have been constrained by certain structural items unique to an investment in the Company, such as the perceived “pair” trade by certain investors in our common stock and the related tracking stocks (NASDAQ: LSXMK and LSXMA) issued by Liberty Media attempting to profit from the discount in those tracking stocks relative to their underlying asset values, and the short position in our common stock in place by certain investors in securities issued by Liberty Media that are convertibles and/or exchangeable into our common stock. For more information regarding the Company’s performance and the companies that the Compensation Committee considers when determining compensation, refer to “Executive Compensation – Compensation Discussion and Analysis.”

Compensation Actually Paid and Net Income

Although Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K requires the presentation of net income in our Pay Versus Performance Table, the Company does not specifically use a net income target as a performance measure in its executive compensation program as a result of factors that impact net income that do not represent the core performance of our business. For example, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $976 million in 2020 related to the Pandora acquisition, which adversely impacted GAAP net income, which was $131.0 million in 2020. Adjusted net income for 2020 was approximately $1.11 billion. Net income for 2021 grew to $1.31 billion on a year-over-year basis but decreased approximately 8% in 2022 compared to the prior year. While the Company does not use a net income target as a performance measure in the overall executive compensation program, net income is correlated with certain measures used by the Compensation Committee to determine executive compensation, including adjusted EBITDA and revenue, which the Company does take into account in determining short-term compensation (i.e., annual bonus amounts) that are awarded to our NEOs under our annual bonus program. As described in more detail in the section “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” the Company targets that approximately 24% of the value of total compensation awarded to our NEOs consists of amounts determined under our annual bonus program.

Compensation Actually Paid and Adjusted EBITDA (Our Selected Financial Measure)

While we use numerous financial and non-financial performance measures for the purpose of evaluating performance for our compensation programs, the Company has determined that adjusted EBITDA is the financial performance measure that, in our assessment, represents the most important performance measure (that is not otherwise required to be disclosed in the Pay Versus Performance Table) used by the Company to link CAP to our NEOs to performance for the most recently completed fiscal year.

We use adjusted EBITDA (among other financial and non-financial performance criteria) to set goals and determine payouts under the Company’s performance-based discretionary annual bonus program. The annual bonus amounts are partially determined based on achievement against goals, including adjusted EBITDA, set each year by the Compensation Committee. Reflecting strong operating performance and financial results, adjusted EBITDA increased 14% in 2020, 8% in 2021 and 2% in 2022, in each case relative to the prior year, and is generally aligned with the CAP to our NEOs’, including our CEO, for the corresponding years reflected in the Pay Versus Performance Table. As described in more detail in “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” the Company targets that approximately 24% of the value of total compensation awarded to our NEOs consists of amounts determined under our annual bonus program.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

Item 2—Advisory Vote to Approve Named Executive Officer Compensation

We provide stockholders with the opportunity to cast an advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers every three years as disclosed pursuant to the SEC’s compensation disclosure rules (which disclosure includes the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables, and the narrative disclosures that accompany the compensation tables) (a “say-on-pay proposal”). We believe it is appropriate to seek and take into account the views of stockholders on the design and effectiveness of our executive compensation program.

Our goal for our executive compensation program is to motivate and retain a talented, entrepreneurial and creative team of executives who will provide leadership for success in the dynamic and highly competitive markets in which we operate. We seek to accomplish this goal in a way that rewards performance and is aligned with our stockholders’ long-term interests. We believe our executive compensation program, which emphasizes long-term equity awards, satisfies this goal and is strongly aligned with the long-term interests of stockholders.

At our 2020 annual meeting of stockholders, approximately 98% of our common stock that voted cast votes in favor of our say-on-pay resolution. We encourage our stockholders to evaluate our executive compensation program over a multi-year horizon and to review our named executive officers’ compensation over the past three years as reported in the Summary Compensation Table on page 52. We have in the past been, and will in the future continue to be, engaged with our stockholders on a number of topics and in a number of forums. We view the advisory vote on executive compensation as an additional, but not exclusive, opportunity for our stockholders to communicate with us regarding their views on executive compensation. Our executive compensation program is designed to operate over a period of several years and to enhance long-term performance.

The Compensation Discussion and Analysis, beginning on page 33 of this proxy statement, describes our executive compensation program and the decisions made by the Compensation Committee in 2022 in more detail.

In accordance with the requirements of Section 14A of the Exchange Act and the related rules of the SEC, we will request that stockholders vote to approve the following resolution at the annual meeting:

RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the named executive officers, as disclosed in this proxy statement pursuant to the SEC’s executive compensation disclosure rules (which disclosure includes the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables, and the narrative disclosures that accompany the compensation tables), is hereby approved.

As an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding on us, our board of directors or the Compensation Committee, and will not be construed as overruling a decision by our board of directors or the Compensation Committee or creating or implying any additional fiduciary duty for us, our board of directors or the Compensation Committee. However, the Compensation Committee and our board of directors values the opinions expressed by stockholders in their vote on this proposal and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions regarding named executive officers.

Our current policy is to provide stockholders with an opportunity to approve the compensation of the named executive officers every three years at the annual meeting of stockholders. It is expected that the next such vote will occur at our 2026 annual meeting of stockholders.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

ITEM 2—ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION

This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather our executive compensation as disclosed in this proxy statement. Accordingly, your vote will not directly affect or otherwise limit any existing compensation or award arrangement of any of our named executive officers.

The board of directors recommends a vote “FOR” the ratification of
the compensation of our executive officers.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

Item 3—Advisory Vote on the Frequency of Future Advisory Votes on Executive Compensation

In accordance with the requirements of Section 14A of the Exchange Act and the related rules of the SEC, we are submitting for stockholder consideration a separate resolution to determine, in a non-binding, advisory vote, whether a stockholder vote to approve the compensation paid to our named executive officers should occur every one, two or three years. We are required to hold this vote once every six years. While the results of the vote are non-binding and advisory in nature, the board of directors intends to consider the results of this vote.

After consideration, the board of directors has determined that an advisory vote on executive compensation that occurs every three years (triennially) is the most appropriate policy for us. Our reasons include:

●	We value consistency, and we do not expect our executive compensation program to change significantly from year to year;

●	In our view, our executive compensation program does not contain any significant risks that might be of concern to our stockholders;

●	A longer frequency is generally consistent with our long-term compensation objectives; and

●	Our executive compensation program is designed to reward and incentivize long-term performance, and a triennial vote corresponds more closely with our long-term incentive awards.

We encourage our stockholders to evaluate our executive compensation program over a multi-year horizon and to review our named executive officers’ compensation over the past three fiscal years as reported in the Summary Compensation Table. We believe that a triennial advisory vote on executive compensation reflects the appropriate time frame for our board of directors and Compensation Committee to evaluate the results of the most recent advisory vote on executive compensation, to discuss the implications of that vote with stockholders to the extent needed, to develop and implement any adjustments to our executive compensation program that may be appropriate in light of a past advisory vote on executive compensation, and for stockholders to see and evaluate the Compensation Committee’s actions in context. Because the advisory vote on executive compensation occurs after we have already implemented our executive compensation program for the current year, and because the different elements of compensation are designed to operate in an integrated manner and to complement one another, in certain cases it may not be appropriate or feasible to fully address and respond to any one year’s advisory vote on executive compensation by the time of the following year’s annual meeting of stockholders.

We have in the past been, and will in the future continue to be, engaged with our stockholders on a number of topics and in a number of forums. We view the advisory vote on executive compensation as an additional, but not exclusive, opportunity for our stockholders to communicate with us regarding their views on executive compensation. In addition, because our executive compensation program has not typically changed materially year-to-year and is designed to operate over the long-term and to enhance long-term performance, an annual advisory vote on executive compensation could lead to a near-term perspective inappropriately bearing on our executive compensation programs. We believe that holding an advisory vote on executive compensation every three years reflects the right balance of considerations in the normal course, but we intend to periodically reassess that view and can provide for an advisory vote on executive compensation on a more frequent basis if changes in our compensation program or other circumstances suggest that such a vote would be appropriate.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

ITEM 3—ADVISORY VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF FUTURE ADVISORY VOTES ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Stockholders will be able to specify one of four choices for this proposal on the proxy card: three years, two years, one year or abstain. Stockholders are not voting to approve or disapprove the board’s recommendation. This advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation is non-binding on the board of directors. Notwithstanding the board’s recommendation and the outcome of the stockholder vote, the board may in the future decide to conduct advisory votes on a more or less frequent basis and may vary its practice based on factors such as discussions with stockholders and the adoption of material changes to compensation programs.

It is expected that the next such vote will occur at our 2029 annual meeting of stockholders.

The board of directors recommends that stockholders vote “THREE YEARS”
with respect to the frequency with which stockholders are provided an advisory
vote on the compensation paid to our named executive officers.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

Item 4—Ratification of Independent Registered Public Accountants

The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation (including approval of the audit fee), retention and oversight of the independent registered public accounting firm that audits our financial statements and our internal control over financial reporting. In addition, the Audit Committee assists the board of directors in its oversight of:

●	The integrity of our financial statements and our accounting and financial reporting processes and systems of internal control over financial reporting;

●	Our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements;

●	Our independent auditors’ qualifications, independence and performance;

●	The performance of our internal audit function; and

●	Our assessment of risks and risk management guidelines and policies.

The Audit Committee and the board of directors believe that the continued retention of KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) as our independent registered public accounting firm is in the best interest of our stockholders, and we are asking stockholders to ratify the selection of KPMG as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2023. Although ratification is not required by our By-laws, applicable law or otherwise, the board of directors is submitting the selection of KPMG to stockholders for ratification because we value our stockholders’ views on our independent registered public accounting firm and as a matter of good corporate practice. In the event that our stockholders do not ratify the selection, it will be considered a recommendation to the board of directors and the Audit Committee to consider the selection of a different firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee may in its discretion select a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. Representatives of KPMG are expected to be at the annual meeting to answer questions. They also will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so.

The board of directors recommends a vote “FOR” the ratification of
KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accountants for 2023.

In accordance with its charter, the Audit Committee’s pre-approval policies with respect to audit and permitted non-audit services to be provided by our independent registered public accounting firm are as follows:

●	The independent registered public accounting firm is not permitted to perform consulting, legal, book-keeping, valuation, internal audit, management functions, or other prohibited services, under any circumstances;

●	The engagement of our independent registered public accounting firm, including related fees, with respect to the annual audits and quarterly reviews of our consolidated financial statements is specifically approved by the Audit Committee on an annual basis;

●	The Audit Committee reviews and pre-approves a detailed list of other audit and audit-related services annually or more frequently, if required. Such services generally include services performed under the audit and attestation standards established by regulatory authorities or standard setting bodies and include services related to SEC filings, employee benefit plan audits and subsidiary audits;

●	The Audit Committee reviews and pre-approves a detailed list of permitted non-audit services annually or more frequently, if required; and

●	The Audit Committee pre-approves each proposed engagement to provide services not previously included in the approved list of audit and non-audit services and for fees in excess of amounts previously pre-approved.

The Audit Committee has delegated to the chair of the Audit Committee the authority to approve permitted services by the independent registered public accounting firm so long as he or she reports decisions to the Audit Committee at its next meeting.

All of the services covered under the captions “Audit Fees” and “Audit-Related Fees” were pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

Report of the Audit Committee

The Audit Committee is composed solely of independent directors meeting the requirements of applicable SEC and NASDAQ rules. Each member is financially literate for audit committee purposes under the NASDAQ rules, and each member of the Audit Committee also qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of SEC regulations and is “financially sophisticated” within the meaning of the NASDAQ listing standards. The key responsibilities of the Audit Committee are set forth in its charter, which was adopted by us and approved by the board of directors and is posted under “ESG – Governance – Committee Charters” in the Investor Relations section of our website.

As described more fully in its charter, the purpose of the Audit Committee is to assist our board of directors in its general oversight of our financial reporting, internal control and audit functions. Management is responsible for the preparation, presentation and integrity of our consolidated financial statements; accounting and financial reporting principles; and internal controls and procedures designed to ensure compliance with accounting standards, applicable laws and regulations. KPMG, our independent registered public accounting firm, is responsible for performing an independent audit of our consolidated financial statements and the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting in accordance with auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (the “PCAOB”).

The Audit Committee has selected KPMG as our independent registered public accountants for 2023. KPMG has served as our independent registered public accountants since 2008. The Audit Committee is responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of our independent registered public accountants. The Audit Committee regularly reviews KPMG’s independence and performance in deciding whether to retain KPMG or engage another firm as our independent registered public accountants. In the course of these reviews, the Audit Committee considers, among other things:

●	KPMG’s historical and recent performance on our audit;

●	KPMG’s capability and expertise in handling the breadth and complexity of our operations;

●	the qualifications of the professionals assigned by KPMG to our audit, including their experience, area of expertise and other factors that could, in the Audit Committee’s opinion, affect the delivery by these professionals of services;

●	KPMG’s known legal risks and any significant legal or regulatory proceedings in which it is involved;

●	data on audit quality and performance, including recent PCAOB reports on KPMG and its peer firms;

●	the appropriateness of KPMG’s fees for audit and non-audit services, on both an absolute basis and as compared to its peer firms;

●	KPMG’s independence, including the possible effects of its provision of non-audit fees and services on its independence; and

●	KPMG’s tenure as our independent registered public accountants, including the benefits of having an independent registered public accountant that is familiar with us, and the controls and processes that help ensure KPMG’s independence.

In accordance with SEC rules and KPMG policies, audit partners are subject to rotation requirements to limit the number of consecutive years an individual partner may provide service to us. For lead and concurring audit partners, the maximum number of consecutive years of service in that capacity is five years. The process for selection of our lead audit partner pursuant to this rotation policy involves a meeting between the Chair of the Audit Committee and the candidate for the role, as well as discussion by the full Audit Committee and with management. The lead audit partner from KPMG assigned to us has served in that role since 2019.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Audit Committee engages in an annual evaluation of our independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications, assessing the firm’s quality of service, the firm’s sufficiency of resources, the quality of the communication and interaction with the firm, and the firm’s independence, objectivity, and professional skepticism. The Audit Committee also considers the advisability and potential impact of selecting a different independent public accounting firm.

The Audit Committee and the board of directors believe that the continued retention of KPMG as our independent registered public accounting firm is in the best interest of our stockholders.

The Audit Committee has met and held discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm regarding the fair and complete presentation of our results and the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee has discussed significant accounting policies applied by us in our financial statements, as well as, when applicable, alternative accounting treatments. Management has represented to the Audit Committee that our consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the consolidated financial statements with management and KPMG.

The Audit Committee also reviewed and discussed our compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In this regard, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed, with management and our independent registered public accounting firm, management’s annual report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022 and KPMG’s related attestation report.

The Audit Committee has discussed with KPMG the matters that are required to be discussed under PCAOB standards. The Audit Committee discussed with KPMG matters required to be discussed by Auditing Standard No. 1301, Communications with Audit Committees, as adopted by the PCAOB, and Rule 2-07, Communication with Audit Committees, of Regulation S-X. The Audit Committee has concluded that KPMG’s provision of audit and non-audit services to us and our affiliates is compatible with KPMG’s independence.

At each regularly scheduled meeting, the Audit Committee met and held discussions with management, our internal auditors and KPMG. Prior to their issuance, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed our quarterly and annual consolidated financial statements (including the presentation of non-GAAP financial information) and disclosures under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” (including significant accounting policies and judgments) with management, our internal auditors and KPMG. During 2022, management, our internal auditors and KPMG also made presentations to the Audit Committee on specific topics of interest, including: our enterprise risk assessment process; our information technology systems and controls; our federal and state income tax positions, including our tax strategy and risks; our critical accounting policies; our strategy and management of the implementation of new systems; and cyber security.

In 2017, the PCAOB adopted a requirement that audit reports for certain companies disclose “critical audit matters,” which are commonly referred to as “CAMs”. Under this auditing standard for the auditor’s reports, CAMs are “matters communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements; and (2) involved especially challenging, subjective, or complex auditor judgment.” In connection with the audit of our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, the Audit Committee and our management had discussions with KPMG regarding the CAMs applicable to our company. As part these discussions, the Audit Committee and management discussed with KPMG the manner in which KPMG identified the proposed critical audit matters and the description of the critical audit matters to be included in KPMG’s report.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Audit Committee discussed with KPMG the overall scope and plans for their audit and approved the terms of their engagement, including the fees and non-audit fees payable to KPMG. The Audit Committee is ultimately responsible for the amounts we pay KPMG. After a review of the proposed fee arrangement, including the projected hours and other costs, the Audit Committee approved an engagement letter with KPMG. The Audit Committee has also discussed with our Senior Vice President, Internal Audit, the overall scope of and plans for our internal audits. The Audit Committee met with KPMG and with our internal auditors, in each case, with and without other members of management present, to discuss the results of their respective examinations, the evaluations of our internal controls and the overall quality and integrity of our financial reporting. Additionally, the Audit Committee reviewed the performance, responsibilities, budget and staffing of our internal audit department. The Audit Committee also has established, and overseen compliance with, procedures for our receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters and our employees’ confidential and anonymous submissions of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters.

The Audit Committee discussed with KPMG their independence from the Company and our management, including the matters, if any, in the written disclosures delivered pursuant to the applicable requirements of the PCAOB. The Audit Committee also reviewed our hiring policies and practices with respect to current and former employees of the independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee preapproved, in accordance with its preapproval policy described above, all services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm and considered whether the provision of such services to us is compatible with maintaining their independence.

Based on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the board of directors, and the board approved, that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC.

This report is provided by the following independent directors, who comprise the Audit Committee:

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

Special Note About 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 proxy statement and in reports and documents published by us from time to time. Any statements about our beliefs, plans, objectives, expectations, assumptions, future events or performance are not historical facts and may be forward-looking. These 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,” “intend,” “plan,” “projection” and “outlook.” Any forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed throughout this proxy statement and in reports and documents published by us from time to time, including the risk factors described under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Among the significant factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements are:

Risks Relating to our Business and Operations:

●	we have been, and may continue to be, adversely affected by supply chain issues;

●	we may be adversely affected by the war in Ukraine;

●	we face substantial competition and that competition is likely to increase over time;

●	if our efforts to attract and retain subscribers and listeners, or convert listeners into subscribers, are not successful, our business will be adversely affected;

●	we engage in extensive marketing efforts and the continued effectiveness of those efforts is an important part of our business;

●	we rely on third parties for the operation of our business, and the failure of third parties to perform could adversely affect our business;

●	failure to successfully monetize and generate revenues from podcasts and other non-music content could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition;

●	we may not realize the benefits of acquisitions or other strategic investments and initiatives;

●	the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has introduced significant uncertainty to our business; and

●	the impact of economic conditions may adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.

●	our ability to profitably attract and retain subscribers to our Sirius XM service is uncertain;

●	our business depends in part upon the auto industry;

●	failure of our satellites would significantly damage our business; and

●	our Sirius XM service may experience harmful interference from wireless operations.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

●	our Pandora business generates a significant portion of its revenues from advertising, and reduced spending by advertisers could harm our business;

●	our failure to convince advertisers of the benefits of our Pandora ad-supported service could harm our business;

●	if we are unable to maintain revenue growth from our advertising products our results of operations will be adversely affected;

●	changes to mobile operating systems and browsers may hinder our ability to sell advertising and market our services; and

●	if we fail to accurately predict and play music, comedy or other content that our Pandora listeners enjoy, we may fail to retain existing and attract new listeners.

Risks Relating to Laws and Governmental Regulations:

●	privacy and data security laws and regulations may hinder our ability to market our services, sell advertising and impose legal liabilities;

●	consumer protection laws and our failure to comply with them could damage our business; and

●	failure to comply with FCC requirements could damage our business.

Risks Associated with Data and Cybersecurity and the Protection of Consumer Information:

●	if we fail to protect the security of personal information about our customers, we could be subject to costly government enforcement actions and private litigation and our reputation could suffer; and

●	interruption or failure of our information technology and communications systems could impair the delivery of our service and harm our business.

Risks Associated with Certain Intellectual Property Rights:

●	the market for music rights is changing and is subject to significant uncertainties;

●	our Pandora services depend upon maintaining complex licenses with copyright owners, and these licenses contain onerous terms;

●	the rates we must pay for “mechanical rights” to use musical works on our Pandora service have increased substantially and these rates may adversely affect our business;

●	failure to protect our intellectual property or actions by third parties to enforce their intellectual property rights could substantially harm our business and operating results;

●	some of our services and technologies may use “open source” software, which may restrict how we use or distribute our services or require that we release the source code subject to those licenses; and

●	rapid technological and industry changes and new entrants could adversely impact our services.

Risks Related to our Capital and Ownership Structure:

●	we have a significant amount of indebtedness, and our debt contains certain covenants that restrict our operations;

●	we are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the NASDAQ listing rules and, as a result, qualify for, and rely on, exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements;

●	while we currently pay a quarterly cash dividend to holders of our common stock, we may change our dividend policy at any time; and

●	our principal stockholder has significant influence, including over actions requiring stockholder approval, and its interests may differ from the interests of other holders of our common stock.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT

SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Other Operational Risks:

●	if we are unable to attract and retain qualified personnel, our business could be harmed;

●	our facilities could be damaged by natural catastrophes or terrorist activities;

●	the unfavorable outcome of pending or future litigation could have an adverse impact on our operations and financial condition;

●	we may be exposed to liabilities that other entertainment service providers would not customarily be subject to; and
