LORAL SPACE & COMMUNICATIONS LTD., A DEBTOR IN POSSESSION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization and Principal Business
      Loral Space & Communications Ltd. (“Loral,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us,” terms that include our subsidiaries unless otherwise indicated or the context requires), together with its subsidiaries is a leading satellite communications company with substantial activities in satellite-based communications services and satellite manufacturing. Loral is organized into two operating segments (see Note 16):
        Satellite Services, managed by our Loral Skynet division, generates its revenues and cash flows from providing satellite capacity and networking infrastructure to customers for video and direct to home (“DTH”) broadcasting, high-speed data distribution, Internet access, communications and networking services.
 
        Satellite Manufacturing, conducted by our subsidiary, Space Systems/Loral, Inc. (“SS/L”), generates its revenues and cash flows from designing and manufacturing satellites, space systems and space system components for commercial and government applications including fixed satellite services, DTH broadcasting, broadband data distribution, wireless telephony, digital radio, military communications, weather monitoring and air traffic management.
2. Bankruptcy Filings, Sale of Assets and Reorganization
Bankruptcy Filings
      On July 15, 2003, Loral and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Debtor Subsidiaries” and collectively with Loral, the “Debtors”), including Loral Space & Communications Holdings Corporation (formerly known as Loral Space & Communications Corporation), Loral SpaceCom Corporation (“Loral SpaceCom”), Loral Satellite, Inc. (“Loral Satellite”), SS/L and Loral Orion, Inc. (“Loral Orion”), filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under chapter 11 of title 11 (“Chapter 11”) of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”) (Lead Case No. 03-41710 (RDD), Case Nos. 03-41709 (RDD) through 03-41728 (RDD)) (the “Chapter 11 Cases”). We and our Debtor Subsidiaries continue to manage our properties and operate our businesses as “debtors in possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code (see Basis of Presentation Note 3).
      Also on July 15, 2003, Loral and one of its Bermuda subsidiaries (the “Bermuda Group”) filed parallel insolvency proceedings in the Supreme Court of Bermuda (the “Bermuda Court”). On that date, the Bermuda Court entered an order appointing Philip Wallace, Chris Laverty and Michael Morrison, partners of KPMG, as Joint Provisional Liquidators (“JPLs”) in respect of the Bermuda Group. The Bermuda Court granted the JPLs the power to oversee the continuation and reorganization of the Bermuda Group’s businesses under the control of their respective boards of directors and under the supervision of the Bankruptcy Court and the Bermuda Court. The JPLs have not audited the contents of this report.
      As a result of our voluntary petitions for reorganization, all of our prepetition debt obligations were accelerated (see below and Note 12). On July 15, 2003, we also suspended interest payments on all of our prepetition unsecured debt obligations. A creditors’ committee (the “Creditors’ Committee”) was appointed in the Chapter 11 Cases to represent all unsecured creditors, including all debt holders. On March 29, 2005, the United States Trustee for the Southern District of New York appointed an official committee of equity security holders (the “Equity Committee”) (as amended on April 7, 2005 and April 11, 2005). In accordance with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, both the Creditors’ Committee and the Equity Committee have the right to be heard on all matters that come before the Bankruptcy Court (see Note 12).
      For the duration of the Chapter 11 Cases, our businesses are subject to the risks and uncertainties of bankruptcy. For example, the Chapter 11 Cases could adversely affect our relationships with customers, suppliers and employees, which in turn could adversely affect the going concern value of our businesses and of our assets, particularly if the Chapter 11 Cases are protracted. Also, transactions outside the ordinary course of business are subject to the prior approval of the Bankruptcy Court, which may limit our ability to respond to

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
certain market events or take advantage of certain market opportunities, and, as a result, our operations could be materially adversely affected.
      Because we are in Chapter 11, the pursuit of claims and litigation pending against us that arose prior to or relate to events that occurred prior to our bankruptcy filings is generally subject to an automatic stay under Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code. Accordingly, absent further order of the Bankruptcy Court, parties are generally prohibited from taking any action to recover any prepetition claims or enforce any lien against or obtain possession of any of our property. In addition, pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, we may reject or assume prepetition executory contracts and unexpired leases. Parties affected by our rejections of contracts or leases may file claims with the Bankruptcy Court.
Sale of Assets
      On March 17, 2004, Loral Space & Communications Holdings Corporation, Loral SpaceCom and Loral Satellite consummated the sale of our North American satellites and related assets to certain affiliates of Intelsat, Ltd. and Intelsat (Bermuda), Ltd. (collectively, “Intelsat”). At closing, we received approximately $1.011 billion, consisting of approximately $961 million for the North American satellites and related assets, after adjustments, and $50 million for an advance on a new satellite to be built for Intelsat by SS/ L. We used a significant portion of the funds received to repay all $967 million of our outstanding secured bank debt. In addition, after closing, we received from Intelsat approximately $16 million to reimburse a deposit made by us for the launch of Telstar 8, and we received an additional $4 million in May 2004 as a purchase price adjustment resulting from resolution of a regulatory issue.
      The North American satellites and related assets sold to Intelsat have been accounted for as a discontinued operation (see Note 4).
Reorganization
      On June 3, 2005, we filed with the Bankruptcy Court a revised plan of reorganization, and the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving our revised disclosure statement (the “Disclosure Statement”) and procedures for voting on the plan of reorganization. Objections to the proposed plan of reorganization were filed by, among others, the Equity Committee and Mr. Tony Christ, a shareholder acting on behalf of the self-styled Loral Stockholders Protective Committee (the “Objections”). In addition, the Equity Committee filed with the Bankruptcy Court a motion seeking authorization to commence an action to prosecute an alleged fraudulent conveyance claim in respect of the guaranty by Loral of Loral Orion’s 10% senior notes due 2006 issued in connection with the exchange offer that occurred on December 21, 2001 (the “Motion to Prosecute”). The Bankruptcy Court hearing to consider confirmation of the plan of reorganization and the Motion to Prosecute was held on July 13, 15, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 25, 2005. On July 25, 2005, the Bankruptcy Court stated that it would confirm the Plan of Reorganization and deny the Motion to Prosecute. On August 1, 2005, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order overruling the Objections and confirming our fourth amended joint plan of reorganization, as modified pursuant to the confirmation order (the “Plan of Reorganization”), as well as a separate order denying the relief requested in the Motion to Prosecute. The Plan of Reorganization and Disclosure Statement reflect an agreement among us, the Creditors’ Committee and the Ad-Hoc Committee of SS/L trade creditors on the elements of a consensual plan of reorganization. The Disclosure Statement establishes the enterprise value of reorganized Loral at between approximately $708 million and approximately $939 million, and the Bankruptcy Court established the enterprise value at $970 million. The Plan of Reorganization provides, among other things, that:
  •  New Loral will emerge as a public company under current management and will seek listing on a major stock exchange.
 
  •  Our two businesses, Satellite Manufacturing (“New SS/L”) and Satellite Services (“New Skynet”), will emerge intact as separate subsidiaries of reorganized Loral (“New Loral”).
 
  •  New SS/ L will emerge debt-free.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
  •  Holders of allowed claims against SS/L and Loral SpaceCom will be paid in cash in full, including interest from the petition date to the effective date of the Plan of Reorganization.
 
  •  Loral Orion unsecured creditors will receive approximately 77 percent of New Loral common stock and their pro rata share of $200 million of preferred stock to be issued by New Skynet. These creditors were also offered the right to subscribe to purchase their pro-rata share of $120 million in new senior secured notes of New Skynet, which rights offering was underwritten by certain Loral Orion creditors (the “Backstop Purchasers”) who will receive a $6 million fee which is payable in additional New Skynet notes. The rights offering expired on July 29, 2005, with creditors subscribing for approximately $98.3 million of notes. The remaining $21.7 million of notes will be subscribed for by the Backstop Purchasers.
 
  •  Loral bondholders and certain other unsecured creditors will receive approximately 23 percent of the common stock of New Loral.
 
  •  Existing common and preferred stock will be cancelled and no distribution will be made to the holders of such stock.
      The Plan of Reorganization will become effective after the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in the Plan of Reorganization, including obtaining approval from the Federal Communications Commission and any other necessary approvals. Although we expect that our Plan of Reorganization will be declared effective early in the fourth quarter of 2005, we cannot predict with certainty when that will occur. In addition, the time within which a party in interest may file an appeal with respect to the order confirming the Plan of Reorganization and/or the order denying the Motion to Prosecute has not yet expired.
      On July 11, 2005, the Bermuda Court authorized the JPLs, subject to confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization by the Bankruptcy Court, to take whatever actions are necessary with respect to the Bermuda Group to implement the Plan of Reorganization.
      Certain contracts that SS/ L has entered into recently provide that SS/L’s customer may defer milestone payments otherwise due until after SS/L emerges from Chapter 11. Accordingly, SS/L expects to incur, through September 30, 2005, costs of approximately $88 million in performance on these contracts without corresponding payments and expects to have vendor termination liability exposure of approximately $12 million (see Note 7). If SS/L emerges from bankruptcy on a timely basis, which will lead to the payment of SS/L’s receivables from customer contracts mentioned above, we believe that we will not require any additional financing to fund operations.
      In January 2004, the North solar array of the Telstar 14/ Estrela do Sul-1 satellite (“EDS”) only partially deployed after launch, diminishing the power and life expectancy of the satellite. SS/L has submitted to its insurers a claim for a total constructive loss of the satellite, seeking recovery for the insured value of $250 million. SS/L has reached a settlement agreement with the insurers with respect to this pending insurance claim. Under this settlement, which was approved by the Bankruptcy Court on May 10, 2005, SS/ L will receive 82% of each settling insurer’s respective proportion of the insured amount which would result in $205 million in total proceeds to be received. In addition, under the settlement, the settling insurers waive any rights they may have to obtain title to EDS as a result of payment on the insurance claim. As of August 2, 2005 SS/ L has received $142.3 million of insurance proceeds pursuant to settlements under the terms approved by the Bankruptcy Court. SS/L expects to receive by August 31, 2005, an additional $42.2 million from insurers that have agreed to the settlement. SS/L expects to receive the remaining $20.5 million from an insurer who has agreed to the settlement in principle subject to finalization of the terms and provisions of the settlement documentation.
3. Basis of Presentation
      The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (the “financial statements”) have been prepared assuming Loral, in its current structure, will continue as a going concern. However, the factors mentioned in Note 2 above, among other things, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as

6


Table of Contents

LORAL SPACE & COMMUNICATIONS LTD., A DEBTOR IN POSSESSION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on a number of factors including, but not limited to, the Plan of Reorganization as confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court becoming effective and maintaining good relations with our customers, suppliers and employees. If the Plan of Reorganization does not become effective, we may be forced to liquidate under applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. We cannot give any assurance of the level of recovery our creditors would receive in liquidation. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities if we were forced to liquidate (see Reorganization in Note 2).
      The financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, in our opinion, include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of results of operations, financial position and cash flows as of and for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules. We believe that the disclosures made are adequate to keep the information presented from being misleading. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The December 31, 2004 balance sheet has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
      The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Statement of Position No. 90-7, Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code (“SOP 90-7”). SOP 90-7 requires us to distinguish prepetition liabilities subject to compromise from postpetition liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The caption “liabilities subject to compromise” reflects the carrying value of prepetition claims that will be restructured in our Chapter 11 Cases. In addition, our condensed consolidated statements of operations portray the results of operations of the reporting entity during Chapter 11 proceedings. As a result, any revenue, expenses, realized gains and losses, and provision for losses resulting directly from the reorganization and restructuring of the Company are reported separately as reorganization items, except those required to be reported as discontinued operations and extraordinary items in conformity with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (“SFAS 144”) and SFAS No. 145, Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections (“SFAS 145”). We did not prepare combined financial statements for Loral and its Debtor Subsidiaries, since the subsidiaries that did not file voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code were immaterial to our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
      Income Taxes
      During 2005 and 2004, Loral continued to maintain the 100% valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets of its U.S. consolidated group, established at December 31, 2002 and recorded no benefit for its domestic loss. The income tax provision for continuing operations includes any change to this valuation allowance, any provision for current federal, state and foreign income taxes and any adjustment to tax contingency accruals for potential audit issues. The tax contingency accruals are based on our estimate of whether additional taxes will be due in the future. Any additional taxes due will be determined only upon completion of current and future federal, state and international tax audits. The timing of such payments cannot be determined but we expect they will not be made within one year. Any such liability would be unsecured pre-petition liabilities in our bankruptcy proceedings and will be afforded the treatment set forth in the Plan of Reorganization approved by the Bankruptcy Court. Therefore, the tax contingency liability is included in “Liabilities Subject to Compromise” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

4. Discontinued Operations
      As described in Note 2, on March 17, 2004, we completed the sale of our North American satellites and related assets to Intelsat. The operating revenues and expenses of these assets and interest expense on our secured debt through March 18, 2004 have been classified as discontinued operations under SFAS No. 144 for all periods presented. As a result of the resolution of the contingencies primarily relating to the completion of the Intelsat Americas 8 (Telstar 8) satellite, which was successfully launched on June 23, 2005, we have recognized on our income statement the previously deferred gain on the sale of $11.4 million, net of taxes of $4.3 million, during the quarter ended June 30, 2005.

      The following table summarizes certain statement of operations data for the discontinued operations prior to the sale of our North American satellites and related assets. In 2004, the operating results of the discontinued operations are for the period from January 1, 2004 to March 17, 2004, the date of the sale. The 2004 results include the write-off of approximately $11 million of debt issuance costs to interest expense relating to secured bank debt that we repaid. For the purposes of this presentation, in accordance with SFAS 144, continuing operations includes all indirect costs normally associated with these operations, including telemetry, tracking and control, access control, maintenance and engineering, selling and marketing, and general and administrative.

(a)  There has been no activity related to discontinued operations for the first six months of 2005, except for the recognition of the previously deferred gain.
      The satellites sold had a net book value of $906 million, including insurance proceeds receivable of $123 million, as of March 17, 2004, the date of the sale. The other related assets and liabilities sold had a net book value of $38 million and $12 million, respectively, as of March 17, 2004.
5. Accounting for Stock Based Compensation
      The fair values of stock-based employee compensation below were calculated based on the fair values of the options at the date of grant. In order for the stock options to have any value to the holders, the market value of our common stock would have to rise from $0.29 at June 30, 2005 to greater than $3.80 (the lowest strike price of our stock options outstanding). However, the Plan of Reorganization does not provide for participation or recovery by our common shareholders and, accordingly, all stock options outstanding as of June 30, 2005, have zero value to the employees.
      In accordance with SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure (“SFAS 148”), an amendment of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (“SFAS 123”), presented below are pro forma results reflecting the application of the fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. Under SFAS 123, the fair value of stock-based awards to employees is calculated using option pricing models, even though such models were developed to estimate the fair value of freely tradable, fully transferable options without vesting restrictions, which differ significantly from our stock option awards. These models also require subjective assumptions, including future stock price volatility and expected exercise time, which can significantly affect the calculated values. We used the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions in our calculations: expected life, six to twelve months following vesting; stock volatility, 90%; risk free interest rate, 2.4% to 6.6% based on date of grant; and dividends, none during the expected term. Our calculations are based on a multiple

option valuation approach and forfeitures are recognized as they occur. The following table summarizes what our pro forma net loss and pro forma loss per share would have been if we used the fair value method under SFAS 123 (in millions, except per share amounts):

      As described in Note 9, with Globalstar’s liquidation on June 29, 2004, we wrote-off the remaining book value of our investment in Globalstar’s $500 million credit facility and reduced to zero the unrealized gains and related deferred tax liabilities previously reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The

unrealized gains reflected above for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, include the reversal of $11.4 million of deferred tax liabilities relating to our investment in Globalstar’s $500 million credit facility.

    40,744       10,894  
             
    $ 47,869     $ 19,040  
             
      Unbilled amounts include recoverable costs and accrued profit on progress completed, which have not been billed. Such amounts are billed in accordance with the contract terms, typically upon shipment of the product, achievement of contractual milestones, or completion of the contract and, at such time, are reclassified to billed receivables (see Note 2).
      When we filed for Chapter 11, SS/L’s hedges with counterparties (primarily yen-denominated forward contracts) were cancelled leaving SS/L vulnerable to foreign currency fluctuations in the future. The inability to enter into forward contracts exposes SS/L’s future revenues, costs and cash associated with anticipated yen-denominated receipts and payments to currency fluctuations. As of June 30, 2005, SS/L had the following amounts denominated in Japanese yen (which was translated into U.S. dollars based on the June 30, 2005 exchange rate) that were unhedged (in millions):
                 
    Japanese Yen   U.S. $
         
Future revenues

Future expenditures
    1,240       11.2  
Contracts-in-process: unbilled receivables/(customer advances)
    (41 )     (0.4 )
      At June 30, 2005, SS/L also had future expenditures in euros of 108,337 ($130,687 U.S.) that were unhedged.
      Foreign exchange gains or losses are reflected on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations as Other income (expense) and we have reclassified $1.5 million and $4.0 million of such foreign exchange losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, by reducing interest expense and increasing Other expense by $1.5 million and $4.0 million, respectively.

      On March 17, 2004 we sold our North American satellites and related assets (see Notes 2 and 4).
      In January 2004, our Telstar 14/ Estrela do Sul-1 satellite’s North solar array only partially deployed after launch, diminishing the power and life expectancy of the satellite. At the end of March 2004, the satellite began commercial service able to operate 15 of its 41 transponders. The satellite’s life expectancy is now approximately six years, as compared to a design life of 15 years. During March 2004, we recorded an impairment charge of $12 million to reduce the carrying value of the satellite and related assets to the expected proceeds from insurance of $250 million. SS/L has reached a settlement agreement with the insurers with respect to this insurance claim (see Note 2 for a discussion of the settlement with insurers).
      On September 20, 2002, and as further amended in March 2003, we agreed with APT Satellite Company Limited (“APT”) to jointly acquire the Apstar V satellite (now known as Telstar 18). Under this agreement, we were initially to acquire 23% of the satellite in return for paying 25% of the project cost, and were to pay APT over time an additional 25% of the project cost to acquire an additional 23% interest in the satellite. In August 2003, we amended our various agreements with APT, converting our arrangement from joint ownership to a lease, but leaving unchanged the cost allocation between the parties relating to the project cost of the satellite. Under this arrangement, we retain title to the entire satellite. The number of transponders leased to APT are reduced over time upon repayment by us of the second 25% of the satellite’s project cost, ultimately to 54% of the satellite’s transponder capacity. In November 2003, we agreed with APT to further revise our existing arrangement. Under this revised arrangement, we agreed, among other things, to accelerate the termination of APT’s leasehold interest in 4.5 transponders by assuming $20.4 million of project cost which otherwise would have been initially paid by APT, decreasing APT’s initial leased transponder capacity from 77% to 69% (or 37 transponders). In addition, we agreed to provide to APT, at no additional cost, certain unused capacity on Telstar 10/ Apstar IIR during an interim period (which has since expired), and telemetry, tracking and control services for the life of the satellite.
      During September 2004, our Telstar 18 satellite began commercial service and we recognized $87 million of sales and $80 million of cost of sales relating to the sales-type lease element of our agreement with APT. In addition, as of June 30, 2005, we have recorded $11 million of deferred revenue relating to the operating lease and service elements of the agreement (primarily APT’s lease of four transponders for four years and four additional transponders for five years and our providing APT with telemetry tracking and control services for the life of the satellite), which will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the related element to be provided. Also, at June 30, 2005, our long-term liabilities included $23 million, representing the present value of our obligation to make future payments of $18.1 million to APT on each of the fourth and fifth

      XTAR
      XTAR, L.L.C. (“XTAR”), is a joint venture between us and Hisdesat Servicios Estrategicos, S.A. (“Hisdesat”), a consortium comprised of leading Spanish telecommunications companies, including Hispasat, S.A., and agencies of the Spanish government. XTAR was formed to construct and launch an X-band satellite to provide X-band services to government users in the United States and Spain, as well as other friendly and allied nations. XTAR’s satellite was successfully launched on February 12, 2005 and commenced service in March 2005.
      We own 56% of XTAR (accounted for under the equity method since we do not control certain significant operating decisions) and Hisdesat owns 44%. During the first quarter of 2005, we made an equity contribution of $7.5 million to XTAR, which was matched by $5.78 million from Hisdesat. To date the partners in proportion to their respective ownership interests have contributed $109.6 million to XTAR.
      XTAR and Loral Skynet have entered into agreements whereby Loral Skynet provides to XTAR (i) certain selling, general and administrative services, (ii) telemetry, tracking and control services for the XTAR satellite, (iii) transponder engineering and regulatory support services as needed and (iv) satellite construction oversight services.

      In May 2005, XTAR signed a contract with the U.S. Department of State for the lease of transponder capacity. The State Department is authorized pursuant to its procurement guidelines to lease up to $137.0 million of capacity under this contract. To date, the U.S. Department of State has committed to a three-year lease of one transponder under this contract, having a total lease value of $13.5 million, and has the right, at its option, to renew the lease for two additional years, which would bring the total value of the lease to $25.5 million. There can be no assurance as to how much, if any, additional capacity, the U.S. Department of State may lease from XTAR under this contract.
      In January 2005, Hisdesat provided XTAR with a convertible loan in the amount of $10.8 million, for which Hisdesat received enhanced governance rights in XTAR. Moreover, if Hisdesat were to convert the loan into XTAR equity, our equity interest in XTAR would be reduced to 51%.
      We have received Bankruptcy Court approval to contribute our share of $2.0 million of additional capital contributions ($1.1 million) to XTAR. This additional contribution has not been made by either us or Hisdesat to date.
      XTAR entered into a Launch Services Agreement with Arianespace, S.A. providing for launch of its satellite on Arianespace’s Ariane 5 ECA launch vehicle. Arianespace provided a one-year, $15.8 million, 10% loan for a portion of the launch price, secured by certain of XTAR’s assets, including the satellite, ground equipment and rights to the orbital slot. The remainder of the launch price consists of a revenue-based fee to be paid over time following commencement of operations by XTAR. If XTAR is unable to repay the Arianespace loan when due, Arianespace will have the right to foreclose on the XTAR assets pledged as collateral, which may adversely affect our investment in XTAR.
      XTAR has agreed to lease certain transponders on the Spainsat satellite, which is being constructed by SS/ L for Hisdesat. XTAR’s lease obligations for such service would initially amount to $6.2 million per year, growing to $23 million per year. Under this lease agreement, Hisdesat may also be entitled under certain circumstances to a share of the revenues generated on the Spainsat transponders leased by XTAR.
      Globalstar
      On June 29, 2004, Globalstar, L.P. (“Globalstar”) was dissolved. As a result of Globalstar’s liquidation, we recorded equity income of $47 million on the reversal of vendor financing liabilities that were non-recourse to SS/ L in the event of non-payment by Globalstar.
      On April 14, 2004, Globalstar announced the completion of its financial restructuring following the formal acquisition of its main business operations and assets by Thermo Capital Partners LLC (“Thermo”), effectively resulting in Globalstar exiting from bankruptcy. Thermo invested $43 million in the newly formed Globalstar company (“New Globalstar”) in exchange for an 81.25% equity interest, with the remaining 18.75% of the equity to be distributed to the creditors of Globalstar. Our share of the equity interest is approximately 2.7% of New Globalstar, for which we assigned no value. Upon receipt of our equity interest in New Globalstar in June 2004, we reversed the $2.8 million unrealized gain included in accumulated other comprehensive income against the remaining $2.8 million investment in Globalstar’s $500 million credit facility, which had no impact on our condensed consolidated results of operations.
      Satmex
      In 1997, in connection with the privatization of Satélites Mexicanos, S.A. de C.V. (“Satmex”) by the Mexican Government of its satellite services business, Loral and Principia S.A. de C.V. (“Principia”) formed a joint venture that acquired 75% of the outstanding capital stock of Satmex. In addition to the $647 million of cash that was given to the Mexican Government for this 75% interest, as part of the acquisition, a wholly owned subsidiary of the joint venture, Servicios Corporativos Satelitales S.A. de C.V. (“Servicios”), was required to issue a seven-year government obligation (“Government Obligation”) to the Mexican Government. The Government Obligation had an initial face amount of $125 million and has accreted at 6.03% to

14

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
$189 million as of December 30, 2004, its maturity date. There is no guarantee of this debt by Satmex; however, Loral and Principia have pledged their respective membership interests in the joint venture in a collateral trust to support this obligation. As Servicios did not repay the Government Obligation when it was due, the Mexican Government could foreclose on these shares, which would result in Loral losing nearly all of its investment stake in Satmex. A small portion of our ownership is comprised of direct equity interests in Satmex and such interest has not been pledged.
      As of June 30, 2005, we had a 49% indirect economic interest in Satmex. We account for Satmex using the equity method. In the third quarter of 2003, we wrote off our remaining investment in Satmex of $29 million (as an increase to our equity loss in Satmex), due to the financial difficulties that Satmex was having. We have no further financial obligation relating to Satmex. Accordingly, there is no requirement for us to provide for our allocated share of Satmex’s net losses subsequent to September 30, 2003.
      On June 30, 2004, the Floating Rate Notes came due and Satmex did not make the required principal payment of $203.4 million. On November 1, 2004, the Fixed Rate Notes came due and Satmex did not make the required principal payment of $320.0 million. Also, Satmex did not make the August 1, 2003, February 1, 2004, and August 1, 2004 interest payments on the Fixed Rate Notes or the interest due on maturity of the Fixed Rate Notes. The aggregate amount of interest payment due was $56.7 million.
      On December 29, 2004, the Government Obligation of approximately $125.1 million plus accrued interest of approximately $63 million came due and Servicios did not make payment of such amounts. This debt obligation is secured by the shares of our joint venture held by Loral and Principia. As a result of the payment defaults under the Government Obligation, the Mexican government could initiate proceedings against Servicios, which may include foreclosure on the joint venture shares which would result in a change of control of Satmex.
      As a consequence of the defaults described above, on May 25, 2005, certain holders of Satmex Fixed Rate Notes and the Floating Rate Notes (the “Petitioning Creditors”) filed an involuntary petition (the “Involuntary Petition”) commencing a Chapter 11 case under the Bankruptcy Code against Satmex in the Bankruptcy Court. On June 29, 2005, Satmex filed a petition for reorganization in Mexico (the “Concurso Mercantil”). On July 7, 2005, Satmex filed a motion in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court to dismiss the bankruptcy filing for Satmex made by its U.S. creditors. Satmex subsequently reached a settlement agreement with the Petitioning Creditors premised upon, among other things, the parties consenting to Satmex commencing a case under section 304 of the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court, as a case ancillary to the Concurso Mercantil, and the voluntary dismissal of the involuntary Chapter 11 case commenced by the Petitioning Creditors. The Company is currently unable to determine the effect of the above matters on its holdings in Satmex.
      Satmex Settlement Agreement
      On June 14, 2005, Loral Space & Communications Holdings Corporation (“LSCC”), Loral SpaceCom, Loral Skynet, Loral Skynet Network Services, Inc. (“LSNS”) and SS/ L (collectively the “Loral Entities”) and Satmex entered into an agreement to be implemented through various amendments and agreements with respect to various transactions involving the Loral Entities and Satmex (the “Settlement Agreement”), including but not limited to the contract for the procurement of Satmex 6 between SS/ L and Satmex (the “Satmex 6 SPA”), the management services agreement among Loral SpaceCom, Principia and Satmex (the “Management Services Agreement”), the license agreement between Loral SpaceCom and Satmex (the “License Agreement”), and various transponder agreements between Loral Skynet or LSNS and Satmex. Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, Satmex and the Loral Entities agreed to offset certain amounts owing between them, and SS/ L agreed to give Satmex an allowed claim of $3.7 million in SS/ L’s Chapter 11 Case. In addition, SS/ L and Satmex terminated their respective obligations under the Satmex 6 SPA, and entered into a new contract pursuant to which SS/ L agreed to perform certain additional work, as well as renewed its commitment to provide its continued support for the launch of Satmex 6 provided that SS/ L’s obligation to provide certain services under the

new contract is expressly subject to certain conditions, including Satmex obtaining the approval of the Settlement Agreement and the underlying transactions with any court(s) and other authorities with jurisdiction over its reorganization proceeding. Also pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, Loral SpaceCom and Satmex agreed to terminate the Management Services Agreement and the License Agreement. As part of the consideration for the various benefits conferred by the Loral Entities to Satmex under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, including without limitation, the elimination of Satmex’s obligation to make orbital incentive and end of life bonus payments in respect of Satmex 6, Satmex has agreed to lease to LSCC for the life of the satellite, without any further consideration, two 36 MHz Ku-band transponders and two 36 MHz C-band transponders on Satmex 6. The Settlement Agreement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court on July 26, 2005 and became effective on August 5, 2005. There can be no assurance that any court(s) or other authorities with jurisdiction over Satmex’s reorganization proceeding will likewise approve the Settlement Agreement. We have not recorded the financial benefit of this settlement pending the effective date of the Settlement Agreement, or in the case of the transponders, the launch of Satmex 6.
10. Other Acquired Intangible Assets
      Other acquired intangible assets are included in other assets in our consolidated balance sheets as follows (in millions):

      As of June 30, 2005, the weighted average remaining amortization period for regulatory fees was approximately 10 years and less than one year for other intangibles.
      Total amortization expense for other acquired intangible assets was $0.8 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, and $1.6 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004. Annual pre-tax amortization expense for other acquired intangible assets for the five years ended December 31, 2009 is estimated to be as follows (in millions):

11. Liabilities Subject to Compromise
      As discussed in Note 2, we and our Debtor Subsidiaries have been operating as debtors in possession under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.
      On the condensed consolidated balance sheets, the caption “liabilities subject to compromise” reflects our carrying value of prepetition claims that will be restructured in our Chapter 11 Cases. Pursuant to court order, we have been authorized to pay certain prepetition operating liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business (e.g. salaries and insurance). Since July 15, 2003, as permitted under the Bankruptcy Code, we have rejected certain of our prepetition contracts and are calculating our estimated liability to the unsecured creditors affected by these rejections. The Bankruptcy Court established January 26, 2004 as the bar date in the Debtors’ Chapter 11 Cases, which is the date by which prepetition claims against us and our Debtor Subsidiaries were to have been filed for claimants to receive any distribution in the Chapter 11 Cases.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Differences between liability amounts estimated by us and claims filed by our creditors are being investigated and the Bankruptcy Court will make a final determination of the allowable claims. The determination of how liabilities ultimately will be treated is set forth in the Plan of Reorganization (See Note 2). We will continue to evaluate the amount and classification of our prepetition liabilities through the remainder of our Chapter 11 Cases. Should we identify additional liabilities subject to compromise, we will recognize them accordingly. As a result, “liabilities subject to compromise” may change. Claims classified as “liabilities subject to compromise” represent secured as well as unsecured claims. Liabilities subject to compromise at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 consisted of the following (in thousands):

    $ 1,929,224     $ 1,916,000  
             
Series C and D Preferred Stock
      In August 2002, our Board of Directors approved a plan to suspend indefinitely the future payment of dividends on our two series of preferred stock. Accordingly, we have deferred the payments of quarterly dividends due on the Series C and Series D preferred stock. On July 15, 2003, we stopped accruing dividends on the two series of preferred stock as a result of our Chapter 11 filing. Because we failed to pay dividends on the Series C and the Series D preferred stock for six quarters, holders of the majority of each class of such preferred stock are now entitled, subject to the applicable effects of the Chapter 11 Cases and Loral’s Bermuda insolvency proceedings, to elect two additional members, for a total of four, to Loral’s Board of Directors. The Plan of Reorganization does not provide for participation or recovery by holders of our preferred stock.

      As a result of our voluntary petitions for reorganization, all of our prepetition debt obligations were accelerated. A creditors’ committee was appointed in the Chapter 11 Cases to represent all unsecured creditors, including all of our debt holders. In addition, an official committee of equity security holders was appointed in the Chapter 11 Cases to represent all holders of equity interests, including all preferred and common shareholders of Loral. In accordance with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, both the creditors’ committee and the equity committee have the right to be heard on all matters that come before the Bankruptcy Court (see Note 2).
      On March 17, 2004, we repaid all $967 million of our outstanding secured bank debt (see Notes 2 and 4). As of June 30, 2005, the principal amounts of our prepetition debt obligations were $1.049 billion.
      Subsequent to our voluntary petitions for reorganization on July 15, 2003, we only recognized and paid interest on our bank debt through March 18, 2004 and stopped recognizing and paying interest on all other outstanding debt obligations. While we are in Chapter 11, we only recognize interest expense to the extent paid. For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, we did not recognize $10.9 million, and $21.8 million, respectively, of interest expense on our 9.5%, 11.25%, and 12.5% senior notes and for both the three and six month ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, we did not recognize $15.3 million, and $30.6 million respectively, of a reduction to accrued interest on our 10% senior notes as a result of the suspension of interest payments on our debt obligations.

14. Commitments and Contingencies
      SS/L has deferred revenue and accrued liabilities for performance warranty obligations relating to satellites sold to customers, which could be affected by future performance. SS/L accounts for satellite performance warranties in accordance with the product warranty provisions of FIN 45, which requires disclosure, but not initial recognition and measurement, of performance guarantees. SS/L estimates the deferred revenue for its warranty obligations based on historical satellite performance. SS/L periodically reviews and adjusts the deferred revenue and accrued liabilities for warranty reserves based on the actual performance of each satellite and the remaining warranty period. A reconciliation of such deferred amounts for the six months ended June 30, 2005, is as follows (in millions):
         
Balance of deferred amounts at January 1, 2005
  $ 26.0  
Accruals for deferred amounts issued during the period
    0.9  
Accruals relating to pre-existing contracts (including changes in estimates)
    6.1  
       
Balance of deferred amounts at June 30, 2005
  $ 33.0  
       
      Loral Skynet has in the past entered into prepaid leases and one other arrangement relating to transponders on its satellites, under which Loral Skynet has certain warranty obligations. As of June 30, 2005, Loral Skynet continues to provide for a warranty for periods of approximately five to eight years with respect to one transponder under the prepaid leases and four transponders under the other arrangement. In the event of transponder failure, customers are entitled to compensation if Skynet is unable to provide replacement capacity, which compensation is normally covered by insurance. In the case of prepaid leases, the customer would be entitled to a refund equal to the unamortized portion of the lease prepayment made by the customer. For the other arrangement, in the event of an unrestored failure, the customer would be entitled to compensation on contractually prescribed amounts that decline over time.
      We filed for bankruptcy protection on July 15, 2003 and are subject to its associated risks and uncertainties (see Notes 2 and 3).
      Nineteen of the satellites built by SS/L and launched since 1997, three of which are owned and operated by our subsidiaries or affiliates, have experienced losses of power from their solar arrays. There can be no assurance that one or more of the affected satellites will not experience additional power loss. In the event of additional power loss, the extent of the performance degradation, if any, will depend on numerous factors, including the amount of the additional power loss, the level of redundancy built into the affected satellite’s design, when in the life of the affected satellite the loss occurred, how many transponders are then in service and how they are being used. It is also possible that one or more transponders on a satellite may need to be removed from service to accommodate the power loss and to preserve full performance capabilities on the remaining transponders. A complete or partial loss of a satellite’s capacity could result in a loss of orbital incentive payments to SS/L and, in the case of satellites owned by Loral Skynet and its affiliates, a loss of revenues and profits. With respect to satellites under construction and the construction of new satellites, based on its investigation of the matter, SS/L has identified and has implemented remediation measures that SS/L believes will prevent newly launched satellites from experiencing similar anomalies. SS/L does not expect that implementation of these measures will cause any significant delay in the launch of satellites under construction or the construction of new satellites. Based upon information currently available, including design redundancies to accommodate small power losses, and that no pattern has been identified as to the timing or specific location within the solar arrays of the failures, we believe that this matter will not have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated financial position or our results of operations, although no assurance can be provided.
      In November 2004, Intelsat Americas 7 (formerly Telstar 7) experienced an anomaly which caused it to completely cease operations for several days before it was partially recovered. Four other satellites manufac-

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
tured by SS/L have designs similar to Intelsat Americas 7 and, therefore, could be susceptible to similar anomalies in the future. A partial or complete loss of a satellite could result in the incurrence of warranty payments by, or a loss of orbital incentive payments to, SS/L.
      Satellites are built with redundant components to permit their continued operation in case of component failure, an event that is not uncommon in complex satellites. Certain of our satellites are currently operating using back-up components because of the failure of primary components. If the back-up components fail, however, and we are unable to restore redundancy, these satellites could lose capacity or be total losses, which would result in a loss of revenues and profits. For example, in July 2005, in the course of conducting our normal operations, we determined that the primary command receiver on two of our satellites had failed. These satellites, which are equipped with redundant command receivers designed to provide full functional capability through the full design life of the satellite, continue to function normally and service to customers has not been affected. Moreover, SS/L is developing a software workaround to fully restore the redundant command receiver function on these satellites. This workaround, which SS/L has successfully used to restore redundancy for another customer’s satellite, is expected to be completed by September 1, 2005.
      Two satellites owned by us have the same solar array configuration as one other 1300-class satellite manufactured by SS/L that has experienced an event with a large loss of solar power. SS/L believes that this failure is an isolated event and does not reflect a systemic problem in either the satellite design or manufacturing process. Accordingly, we do not believe that this anomaly will affect our two satellites with the same solar array configuration. The insurance coverage for these satellites, however, provides for coverage of losses due to solar array failures only in the event of a capacity loss of 75% or more for one satellite and 80% or more for the other satellite.
      We normally insure the on-orbit performance of the satellites in our satellite services segment. Typically such insurance is for one year subject to renewal. It may be difficult, however, to obtain full insurance coverage for satellites that have, or are part of a family of satellites that has, experienced problems in the past. We cannot assure that, upon the expiration of an insurance policy, we will be able to renew the policy on terms acceptable to us. Insurers may require either exclusions of certain components or may place similar limitations on coverage in connection with insurance renewals for such satellites in the future. An uninsured loss of a satellite would have a material adverse effect on our financial performance.
      To prevent frequency interference, the regulatory process requires potentially lengthy and costly negotiations with third parties who operate or intend to operate satellites at or near the locations of our satellites. For example, as part of our coordination efforts on Telstar 12, we agreed to provide four 54 MHz transponders on Telstar 12 to Eutelsat for the life of the satellite and have retained risk of loss with respect to those transponders. We also granted Eutelsat the right to acquire, at cost, four transponders on the replacement satellite for Telstar 12. We continue to be in discussions with other operators on coordination issues. We may be required to make additional financial concessions in the future in connection with our coordination efforts. The failure to reach an appropriate arrangement with a third party having priority rights at or near one of our orbital slots may result in substantial restrictions on the use and operation of our satellite at that location.
      SS/L has contracted to build a spot beam, Ka-band satellite for a customer planning to offer broadband data services directly to the consumer. SS/L had suspended work on this program in December 2001 while the customer and SS/L discussed how to resolve a contract dispute. In March 2003, SS/L and the customer reached an agreement in principle to restart the satellite construction program, and, in June 2003, SS/L and the customer executed a definitive agreement and SS/L entered into a security agreement with the customer that provided the customer with a security interest in the work-in-progress of the customer’s contract (the “SS/L Security Agreement”). In September 2004, SS/L and the customer amended the agreement to provide for, among other things, acceleration of the payment of $15 million of the outstanding vendor financing (received in October 2004) and the granting of a security interest by the customer to secure payment of the remaining vendor financing (the “Customer Security Agreement”). In October 2004, the Bankruptcy Court approved the Customer Security Agreement and SS/L’s assumption of the amended

contract and the SS/L Security Agreement. As of June 30, 2005, SS/L had billed and unbilled accounts receivable and vendor financing arrangements of $55 million (including accrued interest of $16 million) with this customer, of which approximately $46 million will be paid to SS/L beginning in 2006 through 2011.
      Under the terms of a master settlement agreement entered into with Alcatel Space (together with Alcatel Space Industries, “Alcatel”), the arbitration brought by Alcatel against Loral and a related court proceeding to confirm the arbitral tribunal’s partial award were suspended, with termination of the arbitration to occur on the date of confirmation of a plan of reorganization or a liquidation, provided that if any action is commenced in the Chapter 11 Cases seeking the repayment, disgorgement or turnover of the transfers made in connection with the master settlement agreement, because of the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the arbitration and related court confirmation proceeding would not be terminated until such repayment, disgorgement or turnover action had been dismissed. The master settlement agreement also provides that Alcatel is entitled to reinstate the arbitration if it is required by judicial order to repay, disgorge or turn over the consideration paid to it under the agreement in the context of the Chapter 11 Cases. As a result of the entry of the confirmation order in the Chapter 11 Cases, the parties are awaiting the formal termination of the arbitration by the arbitral tribunal.
      SS/L is required to obtain licenses and enter into technical assistance agreements, presently under the jurisdiction of the State Department, in connection with the export of satellites and related equipment, and with the disclosure of technical data to foreign persons. Due to the relationship between launch technology and missile technology, the U.S. government has limited, and is likely in the future to limit, launches from China and other foreign countries. Delays in obtaining the necessary licenses and technical assistance agreements have in the past resulted in, and may in the future result in, the delay of SS/L’s performance on its contracts, which could result in the cancellation of contracts by its customers, the incurrence of penalties or the loss of incentive payments under these contracts.
      The launch of ChinaSat 8 has been delayed pending SS/L’s obtaining the approvals required for the launch. In June 2004, the Bankruptcy Court approved a settlement agreement among ChinaSat, SS/L and China Great Wall Industry Corporation which resolved a portion of the disputes outstanding among the parties. This settlement agreement provided, among other things, for a release by ChinaSat of any claim it may have against SS/L to recover some or all of the $52 million that ChinaSat paid to SS/L, and SS/L paid to China Great Wall, for a Chinese launch vehicle. In February 2005, SS/L and ChinaSat reached a global settlement to resolve all other issues outstanding between the two companies, which settlement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court in April 2005. Under the terms of that settlement, SS/L assumed its construction contract with ChinaSat, as amended to reflect the terms of the settlement. SS/L in turn has no obligation to deliver the ChinaSat 8 satellite until all required export licenses are received. SS/L and ChinaSat provided mutual releases in respect of any liability under the original contract and ChinaSat agreed to withdraw all claims filed against SS/L and its affiliates in their bankruptcy proceedings.
      In 1999, as part of its discussions with ChinaSat over the delay in delivery of the ChinaSat 8 satellite, we agreed to provide to ChinaSat usage rights to one Ku-band and two C-band transponders on our Telstar 10 satellite for the life of the satellite. As part of the terms of the overall settlement reached in February 2005, ChinaSat agreed to relinquish its rights in the two C-band transponders on the Telstar 10 satellite, in exchange for rights to use two Ku-band transponders — one on Telstar 10 for the life of the satellite and another on Telstar 18 for the life of the Telstar 10 satellite plus two years. This transponder arrangement was also approved by the Bankruptcy Court in April 2005.
      SS/L has entered into several long-term launch services agreements with various launch providers to secure future launches for its customers, including Loral and its affiliates. SS/L had launch services agreements with International Launch Services (“ILS”) which covered a number of launches, three of which remained open. In November 2002, SS/L elected to terminate one of those future launches, which had a termination liability equal to SS/L’s deposit of $5 million. Subsequently, SS/L received a letter from ILS alleging SS/L’s breach of the agreements and purporting to terminate the launch service agreements and all

remaining launches. Despite ILS’s wrongful termination of the agreements and all remaining launches, to protect its interest, SS/L also terminated a second launch, which had a termination liability equal to its deposit of $5 million, but reserved all of its rights against ILS. As a result, SS/L recognized a non-cash charge to earnings of $10 million in the fourth quarter of 2002 with respect to the two terminated launches. In June 2003, to protect its interest, SS/L also terminated a third launch, which had a termination liability equal to $23.5 million, and SS/L recognized a non-cash charge to earnings of $23.5 million in the second quarter of 2003 with respect to this launch. SS/L also reserved all of its rights at that time. In April 2004, SS/L commenced an adversary proceeding against ILS in the Bankruptcy Court to seek recovery of $37.5 million of its deposits. In June 2004, ILS filed counterclaims in the Bankruptcy Court, and, in January 2005, the Bankruptcy Court dismissed two of ILS’s four counterclaims. In the two remaining counterclaims, ILS is seeking to recover damages, in an unspecified amount, as a result of our alleged failure to assign to ILS two satellite launches and $38 million in lost revenue due to our alleged failure to comply with a contractual obligation to assign to ILS the launch of another satellite. We believe that ILS’s counterclaims are without merit and intend to defend against them vigorously and will continue to seek recovery of SS/L’s deposits. We do not believe that this matter will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations, although no assurance can be provided.
      We have estimated that we will incur approximately $44 million to repair a satellite that was damaged in transit, a significant portion of which we expect to recover through insurance coverage. We believe resolution of the insurance claim will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or our results of operations, although no assurance can be provided.
      On October 21, 2002, National Telecom of India Ltd.(“Natelco”) filed suit against Loral and a subsidiary in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The suit relates to a joint venture agreement entered into in 1998 between Natelco and ONS Mauritius, Ltd., a Loral Orion subsidiary, the effectiveness of which was subject to express conditions precedent. In 1999, ONS Mauritius had notified Natelco that Natelco had failed to satisfy those conditions precedent. In Natelco’s amended complaint filed in March 2003, Natelco has alleged wrongful termination of the joint venture agreement, has asserted claims for breach of contract and fraud in the inducement and is seeking damages and expenses in the amount of $97 million. We believe that the claims are without merit and intend to vigorously defend against them. As a result of the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, this lawsuit is subject to the automatic stay and further proceedings in the matter have been suspended.
      Lawsuits against our Directors and Officers
      In August 2003, plaintiffs Robert Beleson and Harvey Matcovsky filed a purported class action complaint against Bernard Schwartz in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The complaint alleges (a) that Mr. Schwartz violated Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, by making material misstatements or failing to state material facts about our financial condition relating to the sale of assets to Intelsat and Loral’s Chapter 11 filing and (b) that Mr. Schwartz is secondarily liable for these alleged misstatements and omissions under Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act as an alleged “controlling person” of Loral. The class of plaintiffs on whose behalf the lawsuit has been asserted consists of all buyers of Loral common stock during the period from June 30, 2003 through July 15, 2003, excluding the defendant and certain persons related to or affiliated with him. In November 2003, three other complaints against Mr. Schwartz with substantially similar allegations were consolidated into the Beleson case. In February 2004, a motion to dismiss the complaint in its entirety was denied by the court. Defendant filed an answer in March 2004, and discovery has commenced and is ongoing.
      In November 2003, plaintiffs Tony Christ, individually and as custodian for Brian and Katelyn Christ, Casey Crawford, Thomas Orndorff and Marvin Rich, filed a purported class action complaint against Bernard Schwartz and Richard J. Townsend in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The complaint alleges (a) that defendants violated Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5

22

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
promulgated thereunder, by making material misstatements or failing to state material facts about Loral’s financial condition relating to the restatement in 2003 of the financial statements for the second and third quarters of 2002 to correct accounting for certain general and administrative expenses and the alleged improper accounting for a satellite transaction with APT Satellite Company Ltd. and (b) that each of the defendants is secondarily liable for these alleged misstatements and omissions under Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act as an alleged “controlling person” of Loral. The class of plaintiffs on whose behalf the lawsuit has been asserted consists of all buyers of Loral common stock during the period from July 31, 2002 through June 29, 2003, excluding the defendants and certain persons related to or affiliated with them. In October 2004, a motion to dismiss the complaint in its entirety was denied by the court. Defendants filed an answer to the complaint in December 2004, and discovery has commenced.
      In April 2004, two separate purported class action lawsuits filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York by former Loral employees and participants in the Loral Savings Plan (the “Savings Plan”) were consolidated into one action titled In re: Loral Space ERISA Litigation. In July 2004, plaintiffs in the consolidated action filed an amended consolidated complaint against the members of the Loral Space & Communications Ltd. Savings Plan Administrative Committee and certain existing and former members of the Board of Directors of SS/L, including Bernard L. Schwartz. The amended complaint alleges (a) that defendants violated Section 404 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”), by breaching their fiduciary duties to prudently and loyally manage the assets of the Savings Plan by including Loral common stock as an investment alternative and by providing matching contributions under the Savings Plan in Loral stock, (b) that the director defendants violated Section 404 of ERISA by breaching their fiduciary duties to monitor the committee defendants and to provide them with accurate information, (c) that defendants violated Sections 404 and 405 of ERISA by failing to provide complete and accurate information to Savings Plan participants and beneficiaries, and (d) that defendants violated Sections 404 and 405 of ERISA by breaching their fiduciary duties to avoid conflicts of interest. The class of plaintiffs on whose behalf the lawsuit has been asserted consists of all participants in or beneficiaries of the Savings Plan at any time between November 4, 1999 and the present and whose accounts included investments in Loral stock. In October 2004, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint in its entirety which is pending before the court.
      In addition, two insurers under our directors and officers liability insurance policies have denied coverage with respect to the case titled In re: Loral Space ERISA Litigation, each claiming that coverage should be provided under the other’s policy. In December 2004, one of the defendants in that case filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York seeking a declaratory judgment as to his right to receive coverage under the policies. In March 2005 the insurers filed answers to the complaint and one of the insurers filed a cross claim against the other insurer which such insurer answered in April 2005. Discovery has commenced and is ongoing.
      Globalstar Related Matters
      On September 26, 2001, the nineteen separate purported class action lawsuits filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York by various holders of securities of Globalstar Telecommunications Limited (“GTL”) and Globalstar against GTL, Loral, Bernard L. Schwartz and other defendants were consolidated into one action titled In re: Globalstar Securities Litigation. In November 2001, plaintiffs in the consolidated action filed a consolidated amended class action complaint against Globalstar, GTL, Globalstar Capital Corporation, Loral and Bernard L. Schwartz alleging (a) that all defendants (except Loral) violated Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, by making material misstatements or failing to state material facts about Globalstar’s business and prospects, (b) that defendants Loral and Mr. Schwartz are secondarily liable for these alleged misstatements and omissions under Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act as alleged “controlling persons” of Globalstar, (c) that defendants GTL and Mr. Schwartz are liable under Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) for untrue

statements of material facts in or omissions of material facts from a registration statement relating to the sale of shares of GTL common stock in January 2000, (d) that defendant GTL is liable under Section 12(2)(a) of the Securities Act for untrue statements of material facts in or omissions of material facts from a prospectus and prospectus supplement relating to the sale of shares of GTL common stock in January 2000, and (e) that defendants Loral and Mr. Schwartz are secondarily liable under Section 15 of the Securities Act for GTL’s primary violations of Sections 11 and 12(2)(a) of the Securities Act as alleged “controlling persons” of GTL. The class of plaintiffs on whose behalf the lawsuit has been asserted consists of all buyers of securities of Globalstar, Globalstar Capital and GTL during the period from December 6, 1999 through October 27, 2000, excluding the defendants and certain persons related to or affiliated with them. This case was preliminarily settled in July 2005, which settlement might give rise to a general unsecured prepetition claim by Mr. Schwartz against Loral to the extent, if any, the $20 million settlement amount is not reimbursed by Globalstar’s insurers. The Company believes although no assurance can be given, that it will not incur any material loss as a result of this settlement.
      On March 2, 2002, the seven separate purported class action lawsuits filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York by various holders of Loral common stock against Loral, Bernard L. Schwartz and Richard J. Townsend were consolidated into one action titled In re: Loral Space & Communications Ltd. Securities Litigation. On May 6, 2002, plaintiffs in the consolidated action filed a consolidated amended class action complaint alleging (a) that all defendants violated Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, by making material misstatements or failing to state material facts about Loral’s financial condition and its investment in Globalstar and (b) that Mr. Schwartz is secondarily liable for these alleged misstatements and omissions under Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act as an alleged “controlling person” of Loral. The class of plaintiffs on whose behalf the lawsuit has been asserted consists of all buyers of Loral common stock during the period from November 4, 1999 through February 1, 2001, excluding the defendants and certain persons related to or affiliated with them. After oral argument on a motion to dismiss filed by Loral and Messrs. Schwartz and Townsend, in June 2003, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint alleging essentially the same claims as in the original amended complaint. In February 2004, a motion to dismiss the amended complaint was granted by the court insofar as Messrs. Schwartz and Townsend are concerned. Loral believes that it has meritorious defenses to this class action lawsuit and intends to pursue them vigorously. As a result of the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, however, this lawsuit is subject to the automatic stay, and further proceedings in the matter have been suspended, insofar as Loral is concerned but are proceeding as to the other defendants.
      In addition, the primary insurer under our directors and officers liability insurance policy has denied coverage under the policy for the In re: Loral Space & Communications Ltd. Securities Litigation case and, on March 24, 2003, filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court of New York County seeking a declaratory judgment upholding its coverage position. In May 2003, we and the other defendants served our answer and filed counterclaims seeking a declaration that the insurer is obligated to provide coverage and damages for breach of contract and the implied covenant of good faith. In May 2003, we and the other defendants also filed a third party complaint against the excess insurers seeking a declaration that they are obligated to provide coverage. We believe that the insurers have wrongfully denied coverage and intend to defend against the denial vigorously. As a result of the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, however, this lawsuit is subject to the automatic stay and further proceedings in the matter have been suspended insofar as we are concerned but are proceeding as to the other defendants.
      We are obligated, subject to the effects of the Chapter 11 Cases, to indemnify our directors and officers for any losses or costs they may incur as a result of the lawsuits described above in Lawsuits against our Directors and Officers and in Globalstar Related Matters. The Plan of Reorganization provides that our liability post-emergence in respect of such indemnity obligation is limited to the In re: Loral Space ERISA Litigation and In re: Loral Space & Communications Ltd. Securities Litigation cases in an aggregate amount of $2.5 million.

      The Plan of Reorganization does not provide for recovery for claims arising from the rescission of, or damages arising from, the purchase or sale of any security of the Debtors and their affiliates, including the claims described above.
      Other
      In March 2001, Loral entered into an agreement (the “R/L DBS Sale Agreement”) with Rainbow DBS Holdings, Inc. (“Rainbow”) pursuant to which Loral agreed to sell to Rainbow its interest in R/L DBS Company, LLC (“R/L DBS”) for a purchase price of $33 million plus interest at an annual rate of 8% from April 1, 2001. Loral’s receipt of this purchase price is, however, contingent on the occurrence of certain events, including without limitation, upon the sale of substantially all of the assets of R/L DBS. At the time of the R/L DBS Sale Agreement, Loral’s investment in R/L DBS had been recorded at zero and Loral did not record a receivable or gain from this sale. During the first quarter ended March 31, 2005, Rainbow entered into an agreement to sell its Rainbow 1 satellite and related assets to EchoStar Communications Corporation, which sale is conditioned upon receipt of regulatory approval. Loral believes that under the terms of the R/L DBS Sale Agreement, it would be entitled to immediate payment of the full R/L DBS purchase price upon the closing of the EchoStar transaction. Rainbow, however, has informed Loral that it does not believe that consummation of the EchoStar transaction will result in Loral being entitled to receive an immediate payment of the purchase price under the R/L DBS Sale Agreement. Loral disputes Rainbow’s interpretation of the agreement and intends to vigorously enforce its rights thereunder. Moreover, a third party has asserted a prepetition claim against Loral of $3 million in respect of the purchase price.
      We are subject to various other legal proceedings and claims, either asserted or unasserted, that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of these legal proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that any of these other existing legal matters will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or our results of operations. These legal proceedings and claims against us are generally subject to the automatic stay as a result of the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases.
15. Loss Per Share
      Basic loss per share is computed based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted loss per share excludes the assumed conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock (936,371 shares) and the Series D Preferred Stock (185,104 shares), as their effect would have been antidilutive. For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, there were 2,002,870 and 2,387,213 options, respectively, that were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share. In addition, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, there were 612,696 and 604,299 and 604,299 and 604,299 warrants, respectively, outstanding that were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as

16. Segments
      We are organized into two operating segments: Satellite Services and Satellite Manufacturing (see Note 1 and Note 2 regarding the sale of our North American satellites and related assets).
      The common definition of EBITDA is “Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization”. In evaluating financial performance, we use revenues and operating income (loss) from continuing operations before depreciation and amortization, including amortization of unearned stock compensation, and reorganization expenses due to bankruptcy (“Adjusted EBITDA”) as the measure of a segment’s profit or loss. Adjusted EBITDA is equivalent to the common definition of EBITDA before amortization of stock compensation; reorganization expenses due to bankruptcy; gain (loss) on investments; other income (expense); equity in net income (losses) of affiliates, net of tax; minority interest, net of tax; income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of taxes; cumulative effect of change in accounting principle, net of tax; and extraordinary gain on acquisition of minority interest, net of tax. Interest expense has been excluded from Adjusted EBITDA to maintain comparability with the performance of competitors using similar measures with different capital structures. During the period we are in Chapter 11, we only recognize interest expense on the actual interest payments we make. During this period, we do not expect to make any further interest payments on our debt obligations after March 17, 2004, the date we repaid our secured bank debt. Reorganization expenses due to bankruptcy are only incurred during the period we are in Chapter 11. These expenses have been excluded from Adjusted EBITDA to maintain comparability with our results during periods we are not in Chapter 11 and with the results of competitors using similar measures. Adjusted EBITDA should be used in conjunction with U.S. GAAP financial measures and is not presented as an alternative to cash flow from operations as a measure of our liquidity or as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance.
      We believe the use of Adjusted EBITDA along with U.S. GAAP financial measures enhances the understanding of our operating results and is useful to investors in comparing performance with competitors, estimating enterprise value and making investment decisions. Adjusted EBITDA allows investors to compare

operating results of competitors exclusive of depreciation and amortization, net losses of affiliates and minority interest. Adjusted EBITDA is a useful tool given the significant variation that can result from the timing of capital expenditures, the amount of intangible assets recorded, the differences in assets’ lives, the timing and amount of investments, and effects of investments not managed by us. Adjusted EBITDA as used here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by competitors. We also use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate operating performance of our segments, to allocate resources and capital to such segments, to measure performance for incentive compensation programs, and to evaluate future growth opportunities.
      Intersegment revenues primarily consists of satellites under construction by Satellite Manufacturing for Satellite Services and the leasing of transponder capacity by Satellite Manufacturing from Satellite Services.

(1)  Represents corporate expenses incurred in support of our operations.
(2)  Includes revenues from affiliates of $1.7 million and $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and $4.6 million and $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
(3)  Represents the elimination of intercompany sales and intercompany Adjusted EBITDA, primarily for satellites under construction by SS/ L for wholly owned subsidiaries.
(4)  Satellite manufacturing includes a warranty accrual of $6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005. Satellite manufacturing excludes charges of $2 million and $22 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, as a result of the settlement of all orbital receivables on satellites sold to Intelsat. This settlement had the effect of reducing future orbital receipts by $25 million, including $15 million relating to a satellite that was under construction in 2004. Consistent with our internal reporting for satellite manufacturing, this decrease in contract value for the satellite that was under construction in 2004 was not being reflected as a decrease in satellite manufacturing revenues. These charges had no effect on our consolidated results in 2004.

17.     New Accounting Pronouncements
      The following includes several accounting pronouncements that have been issued, but are not yet effective. Upon our emergence from Chapter 11 and the adoption of fresh start accounting under SOP 90-7, we will be required to early adopt these pronouncements.
      SFAS 154
      In May 2005, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, (“SFAS 154”) a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3. This statement changes the requirements for the accounting and reporting of a change in accounting principle. It requires retrospective application to prior period’s financial statements of changes in accounting principles as opposed to recognizing the change in the prior period as a change in the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle as previously required. The provision of this Statement shall be effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted in fiscal periods beginning after the date this statement is issued. We are required to adopt SFAS 154 as of January 1, 2006. In the event that upon emergence from Chapter 11 there is a change in accounting principles due to the adoption of fresh start accounting requirements under SOP-97, we will not be required to apply SFAS 154 retrospectively since we will be exempt under the fresh start accounting requirements.
      SFAS 153
      In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 153, Exchange of Nonmonetary Assets, (“SFAS 153”) an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin (“ARB”) No. 29. It eliminates the exception from fair value measurement for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive asset in paragraph 21(b) of APB No. 29 and replaces it with an exception for exchanges that do not have commercial substance. This statement specifies that a nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The provision of this Statement shall be effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after the date this Statement is issued. Currently, we have not completed an assessment of the impact of adopting SFAS 153.
      SFAS 123R
      In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, (“SFAS 123R”) which requires recognition of compensation cost for stock options and other stock-based awards based on their fair value, generally measured at the date of grant. Compensation cost will be recorded over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award. For pre-existing awards, compensation cost is recognized after the effective date of SFAS 123R for the portion of outstanding awards

where service has not yet been rendered, based on the grant date fair value of those awards as previously determined under SFAS 123. We are required to adopt SFAS 123R as of January 1, 2006. We have not yet completed an assessment of the impact of adopting SFAS 123R.
      SFAS 151
      In November 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 151, Inventory Costs, (“SFAS 151”) an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin (“ARB”) No. 43, to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). SFAS 151 requires that those items be recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the criteria of “so abnormal”. In addition, SFAS 151 requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. We are required to adopt the provisions of this Statement as of January 1, 2006. Currently, we have not completed an assessment of the impact of adopting SFAS 151.
      FSP 109-1
      In December 2004, the FASB staff issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 109-1 (“FSP 109-1”), Accounting for Income Taxes to the Tax Deduction on Qualified Production Activities Provided by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004” (the “Job Creation Act”). The Job Creation Act replaced the export incentives of the extraterritorial income exclusion provision with a tax deduction for income from qualified domestic production activities. FSP 109-1 provides guidance on accounting for the impact of this tax deduction. Since we are projecting a net tax loss for 2005, we expect no benefit from this deduction in the current year.
18.     Financial Information for Subsidiary Issuer and Guarantor and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries
      Loral (the “Parent Company”) is a holding company, which is the ultimate parent of all of our subsidiaries. The 10% senior notes issued by Loral Orion (the “Subsidiary Issuer”), our wholly owned subsidiary, in an exchange offer are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on a joint and several basis, by the Parent Company and several of Loral Orion’s wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The Parent Company, the Subsidiary Issuer and the Guarantor Subsidiaries, as well as certain other non-guarantor subsidiaries of the Parent Company (including Loral SpaceCom and SS/ L) filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code on July 15, 2003.
      Presented below is condensed consolidating financial information for the Parent Company, the Subsidiary Issuer, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the other wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Parent Company (the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”) as of June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004. The unaudited condensed consolidating financial information has been presented to show the nature of assets held, results of operations and cash flows of the Parent Company, Subsidiary Issuer, Guarantor Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries.
      The supplemental condensed consolidating financial information reflects the investments of the Parent Company in the Subsidiary Issuer, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries using the equity method of accounting. Our significant transactions with our subsidiaries other than the investment account and related equity in net loss of unconsolidated subsidiaries are intercompany payables and receivables between our subsidiaries resulting primarily from the funding of the construction of satellites for the Satellite Services segment. Loral’s $200 million note receivable from unconsolidated subsidiaries reflected in the accompanying financial statements is due from Loral Space & Communications Holdings Corporation and bears interest at 8.2% per annum. Loral SpaceCom (a non-guarantor subsidiary) holds a $29.7 million subordinated note receivable from the Subsidiary Issuer. The note is subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness of the Subsidiary Issuer and guaranteed by the Parent Company. The note bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum. Loral Satellite has provided $59.8 million to the Parent Company as of June 30, 2005, in the form of a note receivable which bears no interest and is payable upon maturity of the Loral Satellite Credit Agreement. As a result of filing Chapter 11, the accrual of interest on all related party notes in the following condensed consolidating financial statements was suspended.

LORAL SPACE & COMMUNICATIONS LTD., A DEBTOR IN POSSESSION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
      The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (the “financial statements”) included in Item 1 and our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K.
      We use the terms “Loral,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” and “us” in this report to refer to Loral Space & Communications Ltd. and its subsidiaries. When we use the term “Loral Skynet” or “Skynet”, we are, unless the context provides otherwise, referring to our entire satellite services business, the assets of which are held in various companies.
Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
      Except for the historical information contained in the following discussion and analysis, the matters discussed below are not historical facts, but are “forward-looking statements” as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In addition, we or our representatives have made and may continue to make forward-looking statements, orally or in writing, in other contexts, including in other parts of this report. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “believes,” “expects,” “plans,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “project,” “intend,” or “outlook” or other variations of these words. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict or quantify. Actual events or results may differ materially as a result of a wide variety of factors and conditions, many of which are beyond our control. These include implementation of a Plan of Reorganization as confirmed by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”), and our ability to maintain good relations with our customers, suppliers and employees. For a detailed discussion of these and other factors and conditions, please refer to the Commitments and Contingencies section below and to our other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). We operate in an industry sector in which the value of securities may be volatile and may be influenced by economic and other factors beyond our control. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.
Overview
Businesses
      We are a leading satellite communications company organized into two operating segments: Satellite Services and Satellite Manufacturing.
Satellite Services
      Through our Loral Skynet division, we provide satellite capacity and networking infrastructure to our customers for video and direct-to-home (“DTH”) broadcasting, high-speed data distribution, Internet access, communications and networking services. The satellite services business is capital intensive and highly competitive. We compete with other satellite operators and with ground-based service providers. The build-out of a satellite fleet requires substantial investment. Once these investments are made, however, the costs to maintain and operate the fleet are relatively low. The upfront investments are earned back through the leasing of transponders to customers over the life of the satellite. Beyond construction, one of the major cost factors is in-orbit insurance, given the harsh and unpredictable environment in which the satellites operate. Annual receipts from this business are fairly predictable because they are derived from an established base of long-term customer contracts.
      The satellite services market has been characterized in recent years by over-capacity, pricing pressure and competition from fiber. The downturn in the telecommunications sector led many existing Skynet customers, hampered by a slow-down in demand and lack of access to the capital markets, to postpone expansion plans. Similarly, several start-up companies that leased Skynet’s satellite capacity for the delivery of new applications failed to meet their business objectives. Skynet’s growth depends on its ability to differentiate itself from the competition through customized product offerings, its superior customer service and its successful marketing

of available capacity on its international fleet, which is well positioned to serve regions of the world where we expect demand to grow.
Satellite Manufacturing
      Our Space Systems/ Loral, Inc. (“SS/ L”) subsidiary designs and manufactures satellites, space systems and space systems components for customers in the commercial and government sectors for applications including fixed satellite services, DTH broadcasting, broadband data distribution, wireless telephony, digital radio, military communications, weather monitoring and air traffic management.
      While its requirement for ongoing capital investment is low, the satellite manufacturing industry is a knowledge-intensive business, the success of which relies heavily on its technological heritage and the skills of its workforce. The breadth and depth of talent and experience resident in SS/ L’s workforce of approximately 1,300 employees is one of our key competitive advantages.
      Satellite manufacturers have high fixed costs relating primarily to labor and overhead. Based on its current cost structure, we estimate that SS/ L covers its fixed costs with an average of three to four satellite awards a year. Cash flow in the satellite manufacturing business, however, tends to be uneven. It takes two to three years to complete a satellite project and numerous assumptions are built into the estimated costs. Cash receipts are tied to the achievement of contract milestones, which depend in part on the ability of our subcontractors to deliver on time (see Liquidity and Capital Resources — Cash and Available Credit). In addition, the timing of satellite awards is difficult to predict, contributing to the unevenness of revenue and making it more challenging to match the workforce to the workflow. Between October 2003 and July 2005, SS/ L received orders for the construction of nine satellites.
      Satellites are extraordinarily complex devices designed to operate in the very hostile environment of space. This complexity may lead to unanticipated costs during the design, manufacture and testing of a satellite. SS/ L establishes provisions for costs based on historical experience and program complexity to cover anticipated costs. Since most of SS/ L’s contracts are fixed price, cost increases in excess of the provisions reduce profitability and may result in losses borne solely by SS/ L, which may be material. The satellite manufacturing industry is highly competitive and, in recent years, order levels reached an unprecedented low level, resulting in manufacturing over-capacity. Buyers, as a result, have had the advantage over suppliers in negotiating prices, terms and conditions resulting in reductions in margins and increased assumptions of risk by SS/ L.
Chapter 11 Cases
      We operate in extremely competitive markets characterized in recent years by over-capacity and pricing pressures brought on by the downturn in the telecommunications sector. Our existing and potential customers, having limited access to the capital markets, postponed or reduced the scope of their planned satellite-based applications and services. This resulted in an excess of transponder capacity and a standstill in satellite orders. In the face of these pressures, we further increased our emphasis on cash conservation over the last two and one-half years, reducing operating expenses, suspending dividend payments on our preferred stock, and closely monitoring capital expenditures. The sustained and unprecedented decline in demand for our satellites and satellite services, however, exacerbated our already strained financial condition brought on primarily by the investments we had previously made in Globalstar, L.P. (“Globalstar”) and subsequently wrote-off. On July 15, 2003, Loral and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Debtor Subsidiaries”) filed voluntary petitions for reorganization (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) under chapter 11 of title 11 (“Chapter 11”) of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”). As a result of our Chapter 11 filing, all of our prepetition debt obligations were accelerated. On July 15, 2003, we also suspended interest payments on all of our prepetition unsecured debt obligations. As of June 30, 2005, the remaining principal amounts of our prepetition outstanding debt obligations totaled $1.049 billion.
      For the duration of the Chapter 11 Cases, our businesses are subject to the risks and uncertainties of bankruptcy.

Sale of Assets
      In order to strengthen our balance sheet, on July 15, 2003 we agreed to sell our North American satellites and related assets to Intelsat. On March 17, 2004, we completed the sale of such assets to Intelsat. We used the proceeds from the sale of the assets to repay our outstanding secured bank debt (see Notes 2 and 4 of the financial statements).
Future Outlook
      On June 3, 2005, we filed a revised plan of reorganization as modified by our confirmation order (the “Plan of Reorganization”) and disclosure statement (the “Disclosure Statement”), respectively, with the Bankruptcy Court. The Plan of Reorganization and Disclosure Statement reflect an agreement among us, the Creditors’ Committee and the Ad-Hoc Committee of SS/ L trade creditors on the elements of a consensual plan of reorganization. The Disclosure Statement establishes the enterprise value of reorganized Loral at between approximately $708 million and approximately $939 million, and the Bankruptcy Court established the enterprise value at $970 million. On August 1, 2005, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Plan of Reorganization.
      The Plan of Reorganization will become effective after the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in the Plan of Reorganization, including obtaining approval from the Federal Communications Commission and any other necessary approvals. Although we expect that our Plan of Reorganization will become effective early in the fourth quarter of 2005, we cannot predict with certainty when that will occur. In addition, the time within which a party in interest may file an appeal with respect to the order confirming the Plan of Reorganization and/or the order denying the Motion to Prosecute has not yet expired.
      We are reorganizing around our satellite manufacturing operations and our remaining fleet of international satellites, which will cover regions with growth potential, such as Asia, the Middle East and South America, where the ground infrastructure is inadequate to support increased demand. We consider these operations to be a viable foundation for the further expansion of our company.
      Critical success factors for us include maintaining our reputation for reliability, quality and superior customer service. During reorganization, in particular, these factors are vital to securing new customers and retaining current ones. At the same time, we must align our workforce levels with the needs of the business, continue to contain costs, and maximize the efficiency of both of our operations. Loral Skynet is focused on increasing the capacity utilization of its satellite fleet and successfully introducing new value-added services to its markets. SS/ L is focused on increased bookings and backlog in 2005.
      See Note 2 to the financial statements for a description of our Chapter 11 Cases and our reorganization plan.
Consolidated Operating Results
      See Critical Accounting Matters in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC and Note 17 to the financial statements. Our critical accounting policies have not changed during 2005.
      The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming Loral, in its current structure, will continue as a going concern. However, the factors mentioned above, among other things, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on a number of factors including, but not limited to, the Plan of Reorganization as confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court becoming effective and maintaining good relations with our customers, suppliers and employees. If the Plan of Reorganization does not become effective, we may be forced to liquidate under applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. We cannot give any assurance of the level of recovery our creditors would receive in a liquidation. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities if we were forced to liquidate.
      The following discussion of revenues and Adjusted EBITDA (see Note 16 to the financial statements) reflects the results of our operating businesses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004. The balance of the discussion relates to our consolidated results, unless otherwise noted. Both of our business segments have been adversely affected by the downturn in the telecommunications sector, which has caused a delay in demand for new telecommunications applications and services.

(3)  Satellite manufacturing includes a warranty accrual of $6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005. Satellite manufacturing excludes charges of $2 million and $22 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, as a result of the settlement of all orbital receivables on satellites sold to Intelsat. This settlement had the effect of reducing future orbital receipts by $25 million, including $15 million relating to a satellite that was under construction in 2004. Consistent with our internal reporting for satellite manufacturing, this decrease in contract value for the satellite that was under construction in 2004 was not being reflected as a decrease in satellite manufacturing revenues. These charges had no effect on our consolidated results in 2004.

For the three months ended June 30, 2005, we recorded a tax provision of $1.8 million on a pre-tax loss of $16.2 million, which primarily includes additional accruals of tax contingency reserves for potential audit issues and foreign income taxes. For the three months ended June 30, 2004, we recorded a tax provision of $12.0 million on a pre-tax loss of $57.9 million, which primarily includes the additional valuation allowance of $11.4 million related to the reversal of the deferred tax liabilities from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss (see Note 6 to the financial statements) and a provision for foreign income taxes. We recorded no tax benefit for the loss from discontinued operations in 2004.

See Note 4 to the financial statements.
      As a result of the resolution of the contingencies primarily relating to the completion of the Intelsat Americas 8 (Telstar 8) satellite, we have recognized on our income statement the previously deferred gain on the sale of $11.4 million, net of taxes of $4.3 million, during the quarter ended June 30, 2005.

Table of Contents

           Satellite Manufacturing
      As of June 30, 2005, backlog for SS/ L was approximately $793 million, including intercompany backlog of approximately $4 million. Backlog at December 31, 2004 was $483 million, including intercompany backlog of $12 million.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
      Cash and Available Credit
      As of June 30, 2005, we had $176 million of available cash and $12 million of restricted cash ($1 million included in other current assets and $11 million included in other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2005) and had no further available credit. Cash flow from Satellite Services is fairly predictable because it is derived from an existing base of long-term customer contracts. Cash flow from Satellite Manufacturing, however, is not as predictable, because it depends on a number of factors, some of which are not within SS/ L’s control.
      Although our cash is mostly unrestricted, it resides in different Debtor Subsidiaries and we are not able to move cash freely between or among certain of our Debtor Subsidiaries without Bankruptcy Court approval.
      Certain contracts that SS/ L has entered into recently provide that SS/ L’s customer may defer milestone payments otherwise due until after SS/ L emerges from bankruptcy. Accordingly, SS/ L expects to incur, through September 30, 2005, costs of approximately $88 million in performance on these contracts without corresponding payments and expects to have vendor termination liability exposure of approximately $12 million. If SS/ L emerges from bankruptcy on a timely basis, which will lead to the payment of SS/ L’s receivables from these customer contracts, we believe that we will not require any additional financing to fund operations.
      In January 2004, the North solar array of the Telstar 14/ Estrela do Sul-1 satellite (“EDS”) only partially deployed after launch, diminishing the power and life expectancy of the satellite. SS/ L has submitted to its insurers a claim for a total constructive loss of the satellite, seeking recovery for the insured value of $250 million. SS/ L has reached a settlement agreement with the insurers with respect to this pending insurance claim. Under this settlement, which was approved by the Bankruptcy Court on May 10, 2005, SS/ L will receive 82% of each settling insurer’s respective proportion of the insured amount which would result in $205 million in total proceeds to be received. In addition, under the settlement, the settling insurers waive any rights they may have to obtain title to EDS as a result of payment on the insurance claim. As of August 2, 2005 SS/ L has received $142.3 million of insurance proceeds pursuant to settlements under the terms approved by the Bankruptcy Court. SS/ L expects to receive by August 31, 2005, an additional $42.2 million from insurers that have agreed to the settlement. SS/ L expects to receive the remaining $20.5 million from an insurer who has agreed to the settlement in principle subject to finalization of the terms and provisions of the settlement documentation.
      Contractual Obligations
      There have not been any significant changes to the Contractual obligations as previously disclosed in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC other than as provided for in the Plan of Reorganization as confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on August 1, 2005.
      Net Cash (Used in) Provided by Operating Activities
      Net cash used in operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $92 million. This was primarily due to a decrease in customer advances of $67 million primarily due to the continued progress on satellite programs and an increase in contracts-in-process of $44 million primarily due to progress on new satellite programs, offset by the net loss adjusted for non-cash items of $9 million and an increase in pension and other postretirement liabilities of $9 million.

Table of Contents

      Net cash provided by operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2004 was $75 million. This was primarily due to an increase in customer advances of $72 million primarily due to the start up of new satellite programs in 2004 and a decrease in contracts-in-process of $30 million primarily resulting from net collections on customer contracts, offset by net loss adjusted for non-cash items of $30 million.
      Net Cash Provided by Discontinued Operations
      Represents the net cash provided from the operations of the North American satellites and related equipment prior to their sale.
      Net Cash Provided by Investing Activities
      Net cash provided by investing activities was $121 million in the six months ended June 30, 2005. This was primarily due to the collection of the Telstar 14/ Estrela do Sul-1 insurance proceeds of $129 million, offset by investments in and advances to affiliates of $7 million for XTAR.
      Net cash provided by investing activities was $907 million in the six months ended June 30, 2004. This primarily resulted from the $954 million of proceeds from the sale of our North American satellites and related assets, net of expenses, offset by capital expenditures for continuing operations of $24 million and capital expenditures for discontinued operations of $11 million, mainly for the construction of satellites, and investments in and advances to affiliates of $5 million, primarily for XTAR.
      Net Cash (Used in) Provided by Financing Activities
      Net cash used in financing activities was $967 million in the six months ended June 30, 2004, resulting from our repayment of our bank term loans and revolving credit facilities, primarily with the proceeds from the sale of the North America satellites and related assets.
      Affiliate Matters
      Loral has made certain investments in joint ventures in the Satellite Services business that are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. See Note 9 to the financial statements for further information on affiliate matters.
Commitments and Contingencies
      Risk Factors
      Our business and operations are subject to a significant number of risks. The most significant of these risks are summarized in, and the reader’s attention is directed to, the section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition — Commitments and Contingencies — Risk Factors.” In addition, the reader is referred to Note 14 (Commitments and Contingencies) of the financial statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion of these risks.
Other Matters
      Accounting Pronouncements
      Various accounting pronouncements are currently being assessed to determine the impact of their adoption. See Note 17 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Item 3.     Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
      When we filed Chapter 11, SS/ L’s hedges with counterparties (primarily yen-denominated forward contracts) were cancelled leaving SS/ L vulnerable to foreign currency fluctuations in the future. The inability to enter into forward contracts exposes SS/ L’s future revenues, costs and cash associated with anticipated yen denominated receipts and payments to currency fluctuations. As of June 30, 2005, SS/ L had the following

amounts denominated in Japanese yen (which has been translated into U.S. dollars based on the June 30, 2005 exchange rate) that were unhedged (in millions):
                 
    Japanese Yen   U.S. $
         
Future revenues
  ¥ 819     $ 7.4  
Future expenditures
    1,240       11.2  
Contracts-in-process: unbilled receivables/ (customer advances)
    (41 )     (0.4 )
      At June 30, 2005, SS/ L also had future expenditures in euros of 108,337 million ($130,687 million U.S.) that were unhedged.
Item 4.     Disclosure Controls and Procedures
      (a) Disclosure controls and procedures. Our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e)) as of June 30, 2005, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and designed to ensure that material information relating to Loral and its consolidated subsidiaries required to be in our filings under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 would be made known to them by others within those entities in a timely manner.
      (b) Internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(f) and 15-d-15(f)) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II.
OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
      Loral and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Debtor Subsidiaries”) filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) on July 15, 2003 in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”). We and our Debtor Subsidiaries continue to manage our properties and operate our businesses as “debtors in possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. On August 1, 2005, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming our fourth amended joint plan of reorganization, as modified by certain terms and provisions set forth in the order.
      Also on July 15, 2003, Loral and one of its Bermuda subsidiaries (the “Bermuda Group”) filed parallel insolvency proceedings in the Supreme Court of Bermuda (the “Bermuda Court”). On such date, the Bermuda Court entered an order appointing Philip Wallace, Chris Laverty and Michael Morrison, partners of KPMG, as Joint Provisional Liquidators (“JPLs”) in respect of the Bermuda Group. The Bermuda Court granted the JPLs the power to oversee the continuation and reorganization of these companies’ businesses under the control of their boards of directors and under the supervision of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court and the Bermuda Court. The JPLs have not audited the contents of this report.
      As a result of our commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the pursuit of pending claims and litigation against us arising prior to or relating to events which occurred prior to the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases is generally subject to an automatic stay under Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, and, absent further order of the Bankruptcy Court, a party is generally prohibited from taking any action to recover any prepetition claims, enforce any lien against or obtain possession of any property from us. In addition, pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, we may reject or assume prepetition executory contracts and unexpired leases, and parties affected by rejections of these contracts or leases may file claims with the Bankruptcy Court which will be addressed in the context of the Chapter 11 Cases.
      See Note 14 to the financial statements.

Item 3.     Defaults Upon Senior Securities
      (a) On July 15, 2003, we and our Debtor Subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court (Lead Case No. 03-41710 (RDD), Case Nos. 03-41709 (RDD) through 03-41728 (RDD)). As a result of our voluntary petitions for reorganization, our prepetition debt obligations were accelerated (see Note 12 to the financial statements). On July 15, 2003, we suspended interest payments on all of our unsecured debt. As of March 31, 2005, the principal amounts of our prepetition outstanding debt obligations were $1.049 billion.
      (b) In August 2002, our Board of Directors approved a plan to suspend indefinitely the future payment of dividends on Loral’s Series C and D preferred stock. Accordingly, we deferred the payment of quarterly dividends due on our Series C preferred stock commencing on November 1, 2002 and the payment of quarterly dividends due on our Series D preferred stock commencing on November 15, 2002. Because we have failed to pay dividends on the Series C and the Series D preferred stock for six consecutive quarters, holders of the majority of each class of such preferred stock are now entitled, subject to the applicable effects of the Chapter 11 Cases and Loral’s Bermuda insolvency proceedings, to elect two additional directors, for a total of four directors, to Loral’s Board of Directors.
      We do not intend to make interest or dividend payments to cure these defaults, and the lenders, noteholders and preferred stockholders have not issued waivers related to these defaults.
