At the Third Investment Closing, in exchange for the purchase by Sprint, Comcast, Time Warner Cable and Bright House Networks of Clearwire Communications Class B Common Interests and Clearwire Communications Voting Interests in amounts exceeding their respective percentage interest, which was determined immediately prior to the consummation of the first phase of the Private Placement on November 13, 2009, Clearwire Communications paid a fee, which we refer to as an Over-Allotment Fee, to Sprint, Comcast, Time Warner Cable and Bright House Networks of approximately $3.2 million, in the aggregate. Clearwire Communications delivered the applicable Over-Allotment Fee to Sprint, one-half in cash and one-half in the form of Clearwire Communications Class B Common Interests valued at $7.33 per interest and an equal number of Clearwire Communications Voting Interests, and to Comcast, Time Warner Cable and Bright House Networks in cash. Immediately following the receipt by the Participating Equityholders of Clearwire Communications Voting Interests and Clearwire Communications Class B Common Interests at the Third Investment Closing, each of the Participating Equityholders contributed to Clearwire its Clearwire Communications Voting Interests in exchange for an equal number of shares of Clearwire Class B common stock, which we refer to as Class B Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Clearwire. </div>   </div>  <div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif"> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">     Under the Investment Agreement, Clearwire committed to a rights offering, pursuant to which rights to purchase shares of Clearwire Class A common stock, which we refer to as Class A Common Stock, were granted to each holder of Class A Common Stock along with certain participating securities as of December 17, 2009, which we refer to as the Rights Offering. We distributed subscription rights exercisable for up to 93.9 million shares of Class A Common Stock. Each subscription right entitled a shareholder to purchase 0.4336 shares of Class A Common Stock at a subscription price of $7.33 per share. The subscription rights expired if they were not exercised by June 21, 2010.
