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. |

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." |
