| 09:28 EDT |  | DISH, S | DISH looking to develop broadband service, says Wells Fargo
After DISH (DISH) agreed to develop a fixed-mobile broadband service with nTelos (NTLS), Wells Fargo does not believe that DISH is looking to build a network. Rather, the firm thinks that DISH is looking to build a broadband service that is likely to operate on Sprint's (S) spectrum. The firm views the nTelos deal positively as it gives DISH a head start in developing a broadband offering in case it acquires Sprint. The firm keeps an Outperform rating on Sprint. |

Clearwire (CLWR) announced that its Special Committee of the board have each approved the revised offer from Sprint (S) to acquire the approximately 50% stake in the company it does not currently own for $3.40 per share.

The Clearwire board recommends that stockholders vote their shares FOR all of the proposals relating to the transaction with Sprint by returning the WHITE proxy card with a "FOR" vote for all proposals. |

Crest Financial Limited, the largest of the independent minority stockholders of Clearwire Corporation (CLWR), protested the decision of the Clearwire Board of Directors to adjourn the Clearwire special meeting to consider Sprint's (S) increased offer price of $3.40 per share. Crest said that it has sent a letter to the Clearwire Board of Directors urging them to resist Sprint's new offer so that Clearwire can pursue direct offers through a competitive process once the bidding war over Sprint is concluded. Crest's letter to the Clearwire Board said, "Sprint's new offer for Clearwire still significantly undervalues Clearwire and its assets and provides no protections to minority stockholders." |

| 17:16 EDT | | CLWR, S | Crest Financial takes first step to perfect appraisal rights of Clearwire shares
Crest Financial Limited, the largest of the independent, minority stockholders of Clearwire (CLWR), has told its brokerage firms to take all necessary steps to perfect Crest's rights under Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law to seek appraisal for the common stock of Clearwire that it beneficially owns. The Delaware law permits Clearwire shareholders electing to exercise their appraisal rights to ask the Delaware Court of Chancery to determine the fair value of their Clearwire common stock if the Sprint (S)-Clearwire merger is consummated and certain other conditions are satisfied. The law states that a Clearwire stockholder that votes FOR the Sprint-Clearwire merger cannot elect to exercise its appraisal rights. Crest has long argued that the price Sprint Nextel is offering to pay Clearwire stockholders for their shares is highly inadequate, that the merger was structured in a way that unfairly disadvantages minority stockholders and that Clearwire would be better off if it remained a stand-alone company. Crest also commended Glass, Lewis & Co., a leading proxy advisory firm, for its recommendation urging that Clearwire stockholders vote against the proposed merger with Sprint. Crest said is strongly disagreed with the view of ISS that the Sprint-Clearwire merger should succeed. |
