Item 8.01 Other Events.

On August 16, 2007, in connection with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Board of Directors of NTELOS Holdings Corp. (Nasdaq: NTLS) (the “Company”) approved the establishment of new sales plans for its five executive officers (the “10b5-1 Plans”): James S. Quarforth, Chief Executive Officer and President; Carl A. Rosberg, Executive Vice President, President – Wireless; David R. Maccarelli, Executive Vice President, President – Wireline; Michael B. Moneymaker, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary; and Mary McDermott, Senior Vice President – Legal and Regulatory Affairs. The shares of Company common stock subject to the new 10b5-1 Plans represent approximately 1%, in the aggregate, of the outstanding Company common stock. Shares will be sold under the plans on the open market over the periods of time and according to the other parameters set forth under each executive officer’s plan.

Rule 10b5-1 allows officers and directors to adopt written, pre-arranged stock trading plans at a time when they are not in possession of material nonpublic information. Once a plan is established, the executive does not retain or exercise any discretion over sales of stock under the plan and the pre-planned trades can be executed at later dates as set forth in the plan while avoiding concerns about whether the executive is in possession of material nonpublic information when the stock is sold.

The Company had previously adopted stock ownership guidelines for its executive officers which provide that the Company’s executive officers should own specific minimum levels of the Company’s common stock. The Company’s executive officers currently satisfy the stock ownership guidelines and after taking into account the sale of all of the above shares under the 10b5-1 Plans, the Company’s executive officers would continue to satisfy these ownership guidelines.
