                                  -------------

      This prospectus relates solely to the resale of up to 178,111 shares of
Series A Senior Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 (the "Series A
Preferred Stock"), of NextWave Wireless Inc. ("NextWave" or the "Company") and
the shares of common stock, par value $0.001 (the "Common Stock"), of NextWave
issuable upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock by the purchasers
identified in this prospectus. On March 28, 2007, shares of the Series A
Preferred Stock were issued to the purchasers in a private placement transaction
exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"), pursuant to Regulation D. This prospectus will
be used by the selling securityholders to resell their shares of the Series A
Preferred Stock and Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A
Preferred Stock.

      Shares of the Series A Preferred Stock provide for the payment of
dividends at a rate of 7.5% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. Until March
28, 2011, the per share dividend amount will be added to the liquidation
preference of the Series A Preferred Stock unless the Company elects to pay cash
dividends. From and after March 28, 2011, the Company is obligated to pay
quarterly cash dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock. Shares of the Series A
Preferred Stock are convertible by holders into a number of shares of Common
Stock equal to the liquidation preference then in effect divided by $11.05 and
may be mandatorily converted at the election of the Company under certain
circumstances. The Company will be required to redeem all outstanding shares of
the Series A Preferred Stock, if any, on March 28, 2017, at a price equal to the
liquidation preference plus unpaid dividends. The Series A Preferred Stock is
also subject to other redemption rights exercisable by the holders of the Series
A Preferred Stock. For a more detailed description of the Series A Preferred
Stock, see "Description of the Capital Stock" beginning on page 39.

      The selling stockholders identified in this prospectus may offer the
shares from time to time as they may determine through public or private
transactions or through other means described in the section entitled "Plan of
Distribution" beginning on page 44 at prevailing market prices, at prices
different than prevailing market prices or at privately negotiated prices. The
prices at which the selling stockholders may sell the shares may be determined
by the prevailing market price for the shares at the time of sale, may be
different than such prevailing market prices or may be determined through
negotiated transactions with third parties.

      We will not receive any of the proceeds from the resale of these shares by
the selling stockholders. We have agreed to pay all expenses relating to
registering the resale of these shares. The selling stockholders will pay any
brokerage commissions and/or similar charges incurred for the sale of these
shares of our Common Stock.

      Shares of our Common Stock are listed on The Nasdaq Global Market under
the ticker symbol "WAVE". We do not intend to list the Series A Preferred Stock
on any national securities exchange or to take any action to make it eligible
for any automated quotation system other than the PortalSM Market of the Nasdaq
Stock Market, Inc (the "PortalSM Market"). The Series A Preferred Stock is not
currently eligible to trade on the PortalSM Market.

      Investing in our Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock involves
significant risks. See "Risk Factors" beginning on page 9 to read about factors
you should consider before buying shares of our Series A Preferred Stock or
Common Stock.

                                   OUR COMPANY

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

      We are a wireless technology company that develops and markets
next-generation mobile broadband and wireless multimedia products and
technologies. Our products and technologies are designed to make wireless
broadband faster, more reliable, more accessible and more affordable. At
present, our customers include many of the largest mobile handset and wireless
service providers in the world.

      We believe that mobile broadband represents the next logical step in the
evolution of the Internet and that consumer demand for fully-mobile, wireless
broadband service will transform the global wireless communications industry
from one driven primarily by circuit-switched voice to one driven by IP-based
broadband connectivity. In addition, we believe that wireless will play a major
role in facilitating digital media convergence and provide people the ability to
easily access and share multimedia content across multiple types of mobile
device and consumer electronics platforms. Our business activities are focused
on developing products, technologies and network solutions to enable affordable,
fully-mobile broadband access and seamless digital media convergence solutions
that will allow individuals to access the information and multimedia content
they want, where they want, when they want, on virtually any type of digital
communications device.

      Our wireless broadband products and technologies are developed and
marketed through our operating subsidiaries. While, on a stand-alone basis, each
subsidiary is focused on providing customers with competitive products and
technologies targeted at a specific aspect of the mobile broadband ecosystem, we
expect that the combined offerings of our operating companies will form a
complete, end-to-end, next-generation wireless broadband solution. The following
is a summary of each of our major subsidiaries products and capabilities:

      NextWave Broadband Inc. - Mobile broadband semiconductors and network
      components based on WiMAX and Wi-Fi technologies, terminal device
      reference designs and network implementation services;

      PacketVideo Corporation - Multimedia software applications for wireless
      handsets and digital media convergence software solutions;

      GO Networks, Inc. - Carrier-class, wide-area, mobile Wi-Fi systems; and

      IPWireless - Commercial and public service mobile broadband systems,
      access devices, and mobile broadcast systems based on TD-CDMA technology.

NEXTWAVE BROADBAND INC. Through its Advanced Technology Group, NextWave
Broadband is developing a family of mobile broadband semiconductor products
based on WiMAX and Wi-Fi technologies including multi-band RF chips and
high-performance, digital baseband WiMAX chips. Our chipsets are intended to
provide wireless device and network equipment manufacturers with an advanced
platform to develop next-generation WiMAX mobile terminal and infrastructure
products. Samples of our first-generation, NW1000 chipset family, which includes
a WiMAX baseband system-on-a-chip (SOC) and matched multi-band RFIC were made
available during the third quarter of 2007. Initial availability of our


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


second-generation, NW2000 chipset family, the company's first chipset family
designed for high-volume commercial production, is planned for the first half of
2008. In addition, the Advanced Technology Group is developing wireless network
components and a family of handset and media player reference designs to
highlight the features of its subscriber station semiconductor products.

      The primary design objectives of the Advanced Technology Group's products
and technologies, which are intended to be sold or licensed to network
infrastructure vendors, device manufacturers and service providers worldwide,
are to:

   o  Improve the performance, service quality and economics of WiMAX networks
      and enhance their ability to cost-effectively handle the large volume of
      network traffic associated with bandwidth-intensive, multimedia
      applications such as mobile television, video-on-demand, streaming audio,
      two-way video telephony and real-time gaming;

   o  Improve the performance, power consumption and cost characteristics of
      WiMAX subscriber terminals;

   o  Improve the degree of interoperability and integration between Wi-Fi and
      WiMAX systems for both Local Area Networks (LANs) and Wide Area Networks
      (WANs); and

   o  Improve service provider economics and roaming capabilities by enabling
      WiMAX networks and WiMAX enabled devices to seamlessly operate across
      multiple frequency bands including certain unlicensed bands.

      Through its Network Solutions Group, NextWave Broadband intends to offer a
full array of network services, including RF and core network design services,
network implementation and management services, and back-office service
solutions to service providers who deploy our WiMAX, Wi-Fi, and TD-CDMA network
solutions. To demonstrate the capabilities of our network service capabilities
and our wireless broadband products, the Network Solutions Group is implementing
a mobile WiMAX/Wi-Fi/TD-CDMA test site in Henderson, Nevada.

      PACKETVIDEO CORPORATION. Through our PacketVideo subsidiary, we supply
device-embedded multimedia software to many of the world's largest wireless
carriers and wireless handset manufacturers, who use it to transform a mobile
phone into a feature-rich multimedia device that provides people with the
ability to stream, download and play video and music, receive live TV
broadcasts, and engage in two-way video telephony. PacketVideo's software is
compatible with virtually all network technologies, including WiMAX, CDMA,
WCDMA, and GSM. PacketVideo has been contracted by some of the world's largest
carriers, such as Verizon Wireless, Vodafone, NTT DoCoMo, Orange and T-Mobile to
design and implement the embedded multimedia software capabilities contained in
their handsets. To date, over 138 million PacketVideo-powered handsets have been
shipped by PacketVideo's service provider and device OEM customers.

      To further enhance its market position, PacketVideo has invested in the
development and acquisition of a wide range of technologies and capabilities to
provide its customers with software solutions to enable home/office digital
media convergence using communication protocols standardized by the Digital
Living Network Alliance(TM) (DLNA(TM)). AN example is PacketVideo's
network-based PacketVideo Experience(TM) platform that provides for content
search, discovery, organization and content delivery/sharing between mobile
devices and consumer electronics products connected to an IP-based network. This
innovative platform is designed to provide an enhanced user experience by
intelligently responding to user preferences based on content type, day-part,
and content storage location. In addition, PacketVideo's patented Digital Rights
Management (DRM) solutions, already in use by many carriers globally, represent
a key enabler of digital media convergence by preventing the unauthorized access
or duplication of multimedia content used or shared by PacketVideo-enabled
devices.

       We believe that the continued growth in global shipments of high-end
handsets with multimedia capabilities, increasing demand for home/office digital
media convergence solutions, and the acceleration of global deployments of
mobile broadband enabled networks will substantially expand the opportunity for
PacketVideo to license its suite of multimedia software solutions to service
providers and to handset and consumer electronic device manufacturers.

      GO NETWORKS, INC. Through our GO Networks subsidiary we offer
carrier-class mobile Wi-Fi network systems to commercial and municipal service
providers worldwide. GO Networks' family of micro, pico and femto Wi-Fi base
stations utilize advanced xRFTM adaptive beamforming smart-antenna technology
and a cellular-mesh Wi-Fi architecture to deliver superior Wi-Fi coverage,
performance, and economics and provide service providers with a cost-effective
solution to support bandwidth-intensive mobile broadband services such as video
streaming, real-time gaming, web browsing, and other types of multimedia
applications on a wide-area basis.

      IPWIRELESS. IPWireless, which was acquired in May 2007, played a leading
role in the development of 3GPP TDD Universal Mobile Telecommunications Systems
(UMTS) standards and currently provides customers with an assortment of TD-CDMA
mobile broadband products and technologies. Mobile broadband networks that
utilize IPWireless' TD-CDMA technology, one of the first standards-based mobile
broadband technologies in the world, have been commercially deployed in more
than a dozen countries, including the Czech Republic, New Zealand, Germany,
South Africa, Sweden, and the United Kingdom.

      The IPWireless TDtv solution, based on 3GPP Multimedia Broadcast Multicast
Service (MBMS), allows UMTS operators to deliver mobile television and other
multimedia services using their existing 3G spectrum and networks, with little
impact on their current voice and data services. A trial of TDtv technology,
recently conducted in the UK by several of the largest mobile operators in
Europe, successfully demonstrated its ability to deliver high-quality,
multi-channel broadcast services using the trial participants' existing
spectrum. TDtv supports key consumer requirements including fast channel change
times, operation at high travel speeds, and seamless integration into small
profile handsets.

      In September 2006, IPWireless' TD-CDMA mobile broadband wireless
technology was selected by New York City's Department of Information Technology
and Telecommunications as part of a five-year contract awarded to Northrop
Grumman for the deployment of a citywide, public safety, mobile wireless
network. IPWireless has received an initial purchase order to deliver network
equipment through November 2007 in connection with this network deployment. We
believe that IPWireless' technology, as optimized for public safety
applications, can be utilized to deliver cost-effective and reliable public
safety network solutions in the 700MHz spectrum band plan currently under
consideration by the FCC for public safety purposes.

      We believe the breadth of products, technologies, spectrum assets and
services offered by our various subsidiaries represents a unique platform to
provide advanced wireless broadband solutions to the market. While our
subsidiaries are intended to be operated as stand-alone businesses, we also
believe that they will provide synergistic value to each other and collectively
drive accelerated market penetration and share of the wireless broadband market
for us.

      To help accelerate global market adoption of our mobile broadband
products, we intend to make our significant spectrum holdings available, under a
variety of business arrangements, to customers of our wireless broadband
products and technologies. Our spectrum footprint in the U.S. covers over 248
million people and includes many of the largest metropolitan areas in the
country. In addition, we have also acquired nationwide spectrum in numerous
international markets including Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Slovakia, Croatia
and Canada.

Initial liquidation preference              $1,000 per share, subject to
                                            increase for accrued dividends, as
                                            described below.

Quarterly dividend                          The Series A Preferred Stock is
                                            entitled to receive quarterly
                                            dividends on the liquidation
                                            preference at a rate of 7.5% per
                                            annum, subject to increase if
                                            certain defaults occur. Until March
                                            2011, we can elect whether to
                                            declare dividends in cash or to not
                                            declare and pay dividends, in which
                                            case the per share dividend amount
                                            will be added to the liquidation
                                            preference. From and after March
                                            2011, we must declare dividends in
                                            cash each quarter, subject to
                                            applicable law. The terms of our
                                            Senior Notes currently do not permit
                                            us to pay cash dividends on the
                                            Series A Preferred Stock. As a
                                            result, we expect that the per share
                                            dividend amount will be added to the
                                            liquidation preference of the Series
                                            A Preferred Stock until March 28,
                                            2011, increasing the amount of the
                                            liquidation preference and
                                            accordingly the number of shares of
                                            our Common Stock issuable upon
                                            conversion of each share of the
                                            Series A Preferred Stock. See
                                            "Description of Capital Stock -

Adjustments to the quarterly dividend       The dividend rate is subject to
                                            adjustment to 10% per annum if we
                                            default in our dividend payment
                                            obligations or fail to cause the
                                            shelf registration statement to be

                                            November 30, 2007. The dividend rate
                                            is also subject to adjustment to 15%
                                            per annum if we fail to comply with
                                            the protective covenants of the
                                            Series A Preferred Stock described

                                            fail to convert or redeem the Series
                                            A Preferred Stock when required to
                                            do so.

Conversion of Series A Preferred Stock      Each share of Series A Preferred
  at the option of the holder               Stock is convertible, at the option
                                            of the holder, into a number of
                                            shares of Common Stock equal to the
                                            liquidation preference then in
                                            effect divided by the conversion
                                            price of $11.05, which is subject to
                                            adjustment upon the occurrence of a
                                            stock dividend, stock split or
                                            combination of shares. Upon such an
                                            event, the conversion price will be
                                            adjusted by multiplying the current
                                            conversion price by a fraction, the
                                            numerator of which is the number of
                                            shares of Common Stock outstanding
                                            immediately prior to such event and
                                            the denominator of which is the
                                            number of shares of Common Stock
                                            outstanding immediately after such
                                            event.

                                            At the time of issuance, the
                                            conversion price of $11.05 was a
                                            10.5% premium to the closing price
                                            per share of Common Stock on Nasdaq
                                            ($10.00). Currently, the conversion
                                            price represents a 90.19% premium to
                                            the closing price per share of
                                            Common Stock on Nasdaq for November
                                            2, 2007 ($5.81).

                                  RISK FACTORS

      Our business involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider
the following risks together with all of the other information contained in or
incorporated by reference into this registration statement before making a
future investment decision with respect to our securities. If any of the
following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition and results
of operations could be materially adversely affected, and the value of our
securities could decline.

                         RISKS RELATING TO OUR BUSINESS

WE HAVE LIMITED RELEVANT OPERATING HISTORY AND A HISTORY OF LOSSES.

      We emerged from our reorganization in April 2005 with a new business plan
and have made several significant acquisitions and investments. As a result, we
are at an early stage of our development and have had a limited relevant
operating history and, consequently, limited historical financial information.
Other than through our PacketVideo subsidiary, which we acquired in July 2005,
and our IPWireless subsidiary, which we acquired in May 2007,we have never
generated any material revenues and have limited commercial operations. While
certain of our businesses are currently generating revenues, the revenues are
not yet adequate to cover our operating expenses. In particular, the wireless
broadband products and technologies being developed by NextWave Broadband are
not expected to be commercially deployed or generate significant revenue prior
to fiscal 2008. We, along with the companies we have acquired, have a history of
losses. We will continue to incur significant expenses in advance of achieving
broader commercial distribution of our IPWireless and GO Networks products and
generating revenues from our NextWave Broadband businesses, particularly from
our WiMAX/Wi-Fi semiconductor and network component products. We are expected to
realize significant operating losses for the next few years. We are therefore
subject to risks typically associated with a start-up entity.

      If we are not able to successfully implement all key aspects of our
business plan, including selling and/or licensing high volumes of our products
to network operators and to device and network equipment manufacturers, we may
not be able to develop a customer base sufficient to generate adequate revenues.
If we are unable to successfully implement our business plan and grow our
business, either as a result of the risks identified in this section or for any
other reason, we may never achieve profitability, in which event our business
would fail.

WE HAVE IDENTIFIED A MATERIAL WEAKNESS IN OUR INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL
REPORTING, AND THE IDENTIFICATION OF ANY SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCIES OR MATERIAL
WEAKNESSES IN THE FUTURE COULD AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO ENSURE TIMELY AND RELIABLE
FINANCIAL REPORTS.

      In connection with our close process and the audit of the consolidated
financial statements for the year ended December 30, 2006, our management
concluded that a material weakness existed relating to revenue recognition
pursuant to software contracts of PacketVideo. The Company's failure to
correctly apply software revenue recognition principles resulted from a lack of
a sufficient number of employees with appropriate levels of knowledge, expertise
and training in the application of generally accepted accounting principles
relevant to software revenue recognition. As a public company, our systems of
internal controls over financial reporting are required to comply with the
standards adopted by the SEC and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(the "PCAOB"). Both regulators currently define a material weakness as a single
deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial
reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material
misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented
or detected on a timely basis. We believe we have taken measures to remedy the
material weakness, some of which are still in progress. For a discussion of our
internal control over financial reporting and a description of the identified
material weakness and the related remedial measures, see Item 9A in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 30, 2007.

      We will be required to make our first annual certification on our internal
controls over financial reporting in our Annual Report for the fiscal year ended
December 29, 2007. In preparing for such certification, we are presently
evaluating our internal controls for compliance with applicable SEC and PCAOB
requirements. We have identified that a material weakness exists related to
revenue recognition in our PacketVideo subsidiary. We also may identify
additional areas requiring improvement and may be required to design enhanced
processes and controls to address issues identified through this review. This


                                       9




could result in significant delays and cost to us and require us to divert
substantial resources, including management time, from other activities. We have
commenced a review of our existing internal control structure and plan to hire
additional personnel. Although our review is not complete, we have taken steps
to improve our internal control structure by hiring dedicated, internal
compliance personnel to analyze and improve our internal controls, to be
supplemented periodically with outside consultants as needed. However, if we
fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, we may not
be able to conclude that we have effective internal controls over financial
reporting as of the end of our fiscal year 2007. Moreover, although our
management will continue to review and evaluate the effectiveness of our
internal controls, we can give you no assurance that there will be no material
weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. We may in the
future have material weaknesses or other control deficiencies in our internal
control over financial reporting as a result of our controls becoming inadequate
due to changes in conditions, the degree of compliance with our internal control
policies and procedures deteriorating, or for other reasons. If we have
significant deficiencies or material weaknesses or other control deficiencies in
our internal control over financial reporting, our ability to record, process,
summarize and report financial information within the time periods specified in
the rules and forms of the SEC will be adversely affected. This failure could
materially and adversely impact our business, our financial condition and the
market value of our securities.

IF WE FAIL TO EFFECTIVELY MANAGE GROWTH IN OUR BUSINESS, OUR ABILITY TO DEVELOP
AND COMMERCIALIZE OUR PRODUCTS WILL BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.

      Our business and operations have expanded rapidly since the completion of
our reorganization in April 2005. For example, from April 13, 2005 through June
30, 2007, the number of our employees increased from 50 to 824 as a result of
organic growth and acquisitions. We acquired WiMAX Telecom in July 2007,
IPWireless in May 2007, GO Networks in February 2007, CYGNUS Communications in
February 2006 and PacketVideo in July 2005 and we are still in the process of
integrating WiMAX Telecom, IPWireless and GO Networks. In addition, our
PacketVideo subsidiary acquired SDC Secure Digital Container AG in January 2007
and consummated two other acquisitions in 2006.

      To support our expanded research and development activities for our
NextWave Broadband business and the anticipated growth in our WiMAX Telecom,
IPWireless, PacketVideo and GO Networks businesses, we must continue to
successfully hire, train, motivate and retain our employees. We expect that
further expansion of our operations and employee base will be necessary. Our
recent acquisitions have also expanded the geographic reach of our operations to
countries including Israel, Germany, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Finland,
Slovakia and Croatia. In order to manage the increased complexity of our
expanded operations, we will need to continue to expand our management,
operational and financial controls and strengthen our reporting systems and
procedures. All of these measures will require significant expenditures and will
demand the attention of management. Failure to fulfill any of the foregoing
requirements could result in our failure to successfully manage our intended
growth and development, and successfully integrate our acquired businesses,
which would adversely affect our ability to develop and commercialize our
products and achieve profitability.

WE OPERATE IN AN EXTREMELY COMPETITIVE ENVIRONMENT WHICH COULD MATERIALLY
ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO WIN MARKET ACCEPTANCE OF OUR PRODUCTS AND
ACHIEVE PROFITABILITY.

      We operate in an extremely competitive market and we expect such
competition to increase in the future. Our businesses are developing and selling
products and technologies based on WiMAX, Wi-Fi and UMTS standards. We will be
competing with well established, international companies that are engaged in the
development, manufacture and sale of products and technologies that support the
same technologies, as well as alternative wireless standards such as GSM and
CDMA2000. Companies that support these wireless technologies include well
established industry leaders such as Alcatel, Cisco, Ericsson, Huawei, LGE,
Lucent, Motorola, Nokia, Nortel, QUALCOMM, Samsung and Siemens. In addition, we
also compete with small and medium size companies such as Alvarion, Tropos
Networks, Strix Systems, and Belair Networks.

      We also will be competing with numerous companies that are currently
developing or marketing WiMAX products and technologies including Airspan,
Beceem, Fujitsu, Intel, Motorola, Nortel, RunCom, Samsung, Sequans and WaveSat.
Some of these companies have significantly greater financial, technical
development, and marketing resources than we do, are already marketing
commercial WiMAX semiconductor products, and have established a significant time


                                       10




to market advantage. These companies are also our potential customers and
partners and may not be available to us if they develop competing products. In
addition, we expect additional competition to emerge in the WiMAX semiconductor
and components market including well-established companies such as Samsung and
Broadcom.

      In addition, our PacketVideo multimedia software products compete
primarily with the internal multimedia design teams at the OEM handset
manufacturers to whom PacketVideo markets its products and services.
Importantly, these OEMs represent some of PacketVideo's largest customers. In
addition several companies, including Flextronics/Emuzed, Hantro, Nextreaming,
Philips Software, Sasken and Thin Multimedia also currently provide software
products and services that directly or indirectly compete with our PacketVideo
products and our IPWireless TDtv solution. As the market for embedded multimedia
software evolves, we anticipate that additional competitors may emerge including
Apple Computer, Real Networks and OpenWave.

      Some of our competitors have significantly greater financial,
technological development, marketing and other resources than we do, are already
marketing commercial products and technologies and have established a
significant time to market advantage. Our ability to generate earnings will
depend, in part, upon our ability to effectively compete with these competitors.

THE SUCCESS OF OUR BUSINESSES DEPENDS ON THE ADOPTION OF DEVELOPING WIRELESS
BROADBAND 4G TECHNOLOGIES, INCLUDING WIMAX AND TD-CDMA.

      The success of our businesses depends on the deployment and market
acceptance of fourth generation (4G) wireless broadband technologies, including
WiMAX and TD-CDMA. We plan to generate most of our revenue from the sale of 4G
products and the licensing of 4G technologies. The market for 4G networks and
compatible products and technologies, as well as the technologies themselves,
are in an early stage of development and are continuing to evolve. In
particular, there are currently no mobile WiMAX networks in commercial operation
and there can be no assurance that commercial mobile WiMAX networks will prove
to be commercially viable. In order for 4G technologies to gain significant
market acceptance among customers, network operators and telecommunications
service providers will need to deploy 4G networks. However, many of the largest
wireless telecommunications providers have made significant expenditures in
incumbent technologies and may choose to develop these technologies rather than
utilize 4G technologies. Certification standards for 4G technologies are
controlled by industry groups. Accordingly, standard setting for 4G technologies
is beyond our control. If standards for 4G technologies such as WiMAX and
TD-CDMA, for example, change, the commercial viability of these technologies may
be delayed or impaired and our development efforts may also be delayed or
impaired or become more costly. If our 4G technologies and products do not
receive industry certification, we may not be able to successfully market,
license or sell our products or technologies. The development of 4G networks is
also dependent on the availability of spectrum. Access to spectrum suitable for
4G networks is highly competitive. Future 4G networks may utilize multiple
frequencies and this multi-spectrum approach is technologically challenging and
will require the development of new software, integrated circuits and equipment,
which will be time consuming and expensive and may not be successful. In order
for our business to continue to grow and to become profitable, 4G technology and
related services must gain acceptance among consumers, who tend to be less
technically knowledgeable and more resistant to new technology or unfamiliar
services. If consumers choose not to adopt 4G technologies, we will not be
successful in selling 4G products and technologies and our ability to grow our
business will be limited.

OUR NEXTWAVE BROADBAND WIRELESS BROADBAND PRODUCTS AND TECHNOLOGIES ARE IN THE
EARLY STAGES OF DEVELOPMENT AND WILL REQUIRE A SUBSTANTIAL INVESTMENT BEFORE
THEY MAY BECOME COMMERCIALLY VIABLE.

      Many of our wireless broadband products and technologies are in the early
stages of development and will require a substantial investment before they may
become commercially viable. While we have announced the initial availability of
our first generation WiMAX baseband chip-on-a-chip and matched multiband RFIC,
these products are not expected to be commercially distributed or generate
significant revenue. We currently anticipate that our second generation NextWave
Broadband WiMAX technologies designed for high volume commercial production will
initially be available in the first quarter of 2008. However, we may not able to
meet this timeframe and therefore the commercial deployment of these products
could be delayed, which could adversely affect our competitive position as well
as our future profitability. In addition, unexpected expenses and delays in
development could adversely affect our liquidity. Some of our other planned
wireless broadband products and technologies have not been tested, even on a


                                       11




pre-commercial basis. Even if our new products and technologies function when
tested, they may not produce sufficient performance and economic benefits to
justify full commercial development efforts, or to ultimately attract customers.
Failure to achieve high volume sales of our NextWave Broadband semiconductors
and other wireless broadband products and technologies would adversely affect
our ability to achieve profitability.

OUR CUSTOMER AGREEMENTS DO NOT CONTAIN MINIMUM PURCHASE REQUIREMENTS AND CAN BE
CANCELLED ON TERMS THAT ARE NOT BENEFICIALLY TO US.

      Our customer agreements with network providers and mobile phone and device
manufacturers are not exclusive and many contain no minimum purchase
requirements or flexible pricing terms. Accordingly, mobile phone and device
manufacturers may effectively terminate these agreements by no longer purchasing
our products or reducing the economic benefits of those arrangements. In many
circumstances, we have indemnified these customers from certain claims that our
products and technologies infringes third-party intellectual property rights.
Our customer agreements are generally not exclusive and have a limited term of
one to five years, in some cases with evergreen, or automatic renewal,
provisions upon expiration of the initial term. These agreements set out the
terms of our distribution relationships with the customers but generally do not
obligate the customers to market or distribute any of our products or
applications. In addition, in some cases customers can terminate these
agreements early or at any time, without cause.

WE MAY EXPERIENCE DIFFICULTIES IN THE INTRODUCTION OF NEW OR ENHANCED PRODUCTS,
WHICH COULD RESULT IN REDUCED SALES, UNEXPECTED EXPENSES OR DELAYS IN THE LAUNCH
OF NEW OR ENHANCED PRODUCTS AND IN CERTAIN CASES, PENALTIES UNDER CUSTOMER
AGREEMENTS.

      The development of new or enhanced wireless products and technologies is a
complex and uncertain process. We may experience design, manufacturing,
marketing and other difficulties that could delay or prevent our development,
introduction, commercialization or marketing of new products or product
enhancements. The difficulties could result in reduced sales, unexpected
expenses or delays in the launch of new or enhanced products, which may
adversely affect our results or operations. In addition, in some cases we are
required to provide liquidated damages and other penalty clauses in our customer
contracts (for, e.g., late delivered product, failure to comply with service
level agreements or defective products). If we are unable to perform in a timely
manner under such customer agreements, we would face financial penalties.

WE DO NOT HAVE ANY MANUFACTURING CAPABILITIES AND DEPEND ON THIRD-PARTY
MANUFACTURERS AND SUPPLIERS TO MANUFACTURE, ASSEMBLE AND PACKAGE OUR PRODUCTS.

      NextWave Broadband is currently designing and developing semiconductor
products including digital baseband ASICs and multi-band RFICs. If we are
successful in our design and development activities and a market for these
products develops, these products will need to be manufactured. Due to the
expense and complexity associated with the manufacturer of digital baseband
ASICs and multi-band RFICs, we intend to depend on third-party manufacturers to
manufacture these products. In addition, GO Networks and IPWireless have each
engaged third-party manufacturers to develop and manufacture their products and
technologies, including ASICs, infrastructure equipment and end-user devices.
The dependence on third-parties to manufacture, assemble and package these
products involves a number of risks, including:

      o     a potential lack of capacity to meet demand;

      o     reduced control over quality and delivery schedules;

      o     risks of inadequate manufacturing yield or excessive costs;

      o     difficulties in selecting and integrating subcontractors;

      o     limited warranties in products supplied to us;



                                       12




      o     price increases; and

      o     potential misappropriation of our intellectual property.

      We may not be able to establish manufacturing relationships on reasonable
terms or at all. The failure to establish these relationships on a timely basis
and on attractive terms could delay our ability to launch these products or
reduce our revenues and profitability.

DEFECTS OR ERRORS IN OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES OR IN PRODUCTS MADE BY OUR
SUPPLIERS COULD HARM OUR RELATIONS WITH OUR CUSTOMERS AND EXPOSE US TO
LIABILITY. SIMILAR PROBLEMS RELATED TO THE PRODUCTS OF OUR CUSTOMERS OR
LICENSEES COULD HARM OUR BUSINESS.

      Our mobile broadband products and technologies are inherently complex and
may contain defects and errors that are detected only when the products are in
use. Further, because our products and technologies serve as critical functions
in our customers' products and/or networks, such defects or errors could have a
serious impact on our customers, which could damage our reputation, harm our
customer relationships and expose us to liability. Defects in our products and
technologies or those used by our customers or licensees, equipment failures or
other difficulties could adversely affect our ability and that of our customers
and licensees to ship products on a timely basis as well as customer or licensee
demand for our products. Any such shipment delays or declines in demand could
reduce our revenues and harm our ability to achieve or sustain desired levels of
profitability. We and our customers or licensees may also experience component
or software failures or defects which could require significant product recalls,
reworks and/or repairs which are not covered by warranty reserves and which
could consume a substantial portion of the capacity of our third-party
manufacturers or those of our customers or licensees. Resolving any defect or
failure related issues could consume financial and/or engineering resources that
could affect future product release schedules. Additionally, a defect or failure
in our products and technologies or the products of our customers or licensees
could harm our reputation and/or adversely affect the growth of the market for
mobile WiMAX, Wi-Fi, TD-CDMA, and other mobile broadband technologies.

WE MAY BE UNABLE TO PROTECT OUR OWN INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND COULD BECOME
SUBJECT TO CLAIMS OF INFRINGEMENT, WHICH COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF OUR
PRODUCTS AND TECHNOLOGIES AND HARM OUR REPUTATION.

      As a technology company, we expect to incur expenditures to create and
protect our intellectual property and, possibly, to assert infringement by
others of our intellectual property. Other companies or entities also may
commence actions or respond to an infringement action that we initiate by
seeking to establish the invalidity or unenforceability of one or more of our
patents or to dispute the patentability of one or more of our pending patent
applications. In the event that one or more of our patents or applications are
challenged, a court may invalidate the patent or determine that the patent is
not enforceable or deny issuance of the application, which could harm our
competitive position. If any of our patent claims are invalidated or deemed
unenforceable, or if the scope of the claims in any of these patents is limited
by court decision, we could be prevented from licensing such patent claims. Even
if such a patent challenge is not successful, it could be expensive and time
consuming to address, divert management attention from our business and harm our
reputation. Effective intellectual property protection may be unavailable or
limited in certain foreign jurisdictions.

      We also expect to incur expenditures to defend against claims by other
persons asserting that the technology that is used and sold by our Company
infringes upon the right of such other persons. From time to time we have
received, and expect to continue to receive, notices from our competitors and
others claiming that their proprietary technology is essential to our products
and seeking the payment of a license fee. Any claims, with or without merit,
could be time consuming to address, result in costly litigation and/or the
payment of license fees, divert the efforts of our technical and management
personnel or cause product release or shipment delays, any of which could have a
material adverse effect upon our ability to commercially launch our products and
technologies and on our ability to achieve profitability. If any of our products
were found to infringe on another company's intellectual property rights or if
we were found to have misappropriated technology, we could be required to
redesign our products or license such rights and/or pay damages or other
compensation to such other company. If we were unable to redesign our products
or license such intellectual property rights used in our products, we could be
prohibited from making and selling such products. In any potential dispute
involving other companies' patents or other intellectual property, our customers


                                       13




and partners could also become the targets of litigation. Any such litigation
could severely disrupt the business of our customers and partners, which in turn
could hurt our relations with them and cause our revenues to decrease.

BECAUSE MOBILE WIMAX AND UMTS BASED TECHNOLOGIES SUCH AS TD-CDMA ARE EMERGING
WIRELESS TECHNOLOGIES THAT ARE NOT FULLY DEVELOPED, THERE IS A RISK THAT STILL
UNKNOWN PERSONS OR COMPANIES MAY ASSERT PROPRIETARY RIGHTS TO THE VARIOUS
TECHNOLOGY COMPONENTS THAT WILL BE NECESSARY TO OPERATE A WIMAX OR UMTS-BASED
WIRELESS BROADBAND NETWORK.

      Because mobile WiMAX and UMTS based technologies such as TD-CDMA are
emerging wireless technologies that are not fully developed, there may be a
greater risk that persons or entities unknown to us will assert proprietary
rights to technology components that are necessary to operate WiMAX or
UMTS-based wireless broadband networks or products. Numerous companies have
submitted letters of assurance related to IEEE 802.16 and amendments or various
UMTS based technologies, including TD-CDMA, stating that they may hold or
control patents or patent applications, the use of which would be unavoidable to
create a compliant implementation of either mandatory or optional portions of
the standard. In such letters, the patent holder typically asserts that it is
prepared to grant a license to its essential IP to an unrestricted number of
applicants on a worldwide, non-discriminatory basis and on reasonable terms and
conditions. If any companies asserting that they hold or control patents or
patent applications necessary to implement the relevant technologies do not
submit letters of assurance, or state in such letters that they do not expect to
grant licenses, this could have an adverse effect on the implementation of
mobile broadband networks utilizing such technologies as well as the sale of our
mobile WiMAX or UMTS based products and technologies. In addition, we can not be
certain of the validity of the patents or patent applications asserted in the
letters of assurance submitted to date, or the terms of any licenses which may
be demanded by the holders of such patents or patent applications. If we were
required to pay substantial license fees to implement our mobile WiMAX or
UMTS-based products and technologies, this could adversely affect the
profitability of these products and technologies.

      We anticipate that we will develop a patent portfolio related to our WiMAX
and UMTS based products and technologies. However, there is no assurance that we
will be able to obtain patents covering WiMAX or UMTS based products. Litigation
may be required to enforce or protect our intellectual property rights. As a
result of any such litigation, we could lose our proprietary rights or incur
substantial unexpected operating costs. Any action we take to license, protect
or enforce our intellectual property rights could be costly and could absorb
significant management time and attention, which, in turn, could negatively
impact our operating results. In addition, failure to protect our trademark
rights could impair our brand identity.

WE ARE SUBJECT TO RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS.

      We operate or hold spectrum through various subsidiaries and joint
ventures in Argentina, Austria, Canada, Croatia, Germany, Slovakia and
Switzerland and have additional operations located in Finland, Germany, Israel,
Japan, South Korea, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. We expect to continue to
expand our international operations and potentially enter new international
markets through acquisitions, joint ventures and strategic alliances. In
addition, we recently launched business operations in Latin America, where a new
business unit headquartered in Sao Paulo, Brazil will deliver our mobile
broadband and wireless technology solutions to customers throughout the Latin
American region. Our activities outside the United States operate in different
competitive and regulatory environments than we face in the United States, with
many of our competitors having a dominant incumbent market position and/or
greater operating experience in the specific geographic market. In addition, in
some international markets, foreign governmental authorities may own or control
the incumbent telecommunications companies operating under their jurisdiction.
Established relationships between government-owned or government-controlled
telecommunications companies and their traditional local telecommunications
providers often limit access of third parties to these markets. In addition,
owning and operating wireless spectrum in overseas jurisdictions may be subject
to a changing regulatory environment. For example, our ownership of wireless
broadband spectrum in Argentina remains subject to obtaining governmental
approval. We can not assure you that changes in foreign regulatory guidelines
for the issuance of wireless licenses, foreign ownership of spectrum licenses,
the adoption of wireless standards or the enforcement and licensing of
intellectual property rights will not adversely impact our operating results.
Due to these competitive and regulatory challenges, our activities outside the
United States may require


                                       14




a disproportionate amount of our management and financial resources, which could
disrupt our operations and adversely affect our business.

THE BUSINESS PLAN OF OUR NETWORK SOLUTIONS GROUP IS DEPENDENT ON ENTERING INTO
OR MAINTAINING NETWORK PARTNER RELATIONSHIPS.

      Our Network Solutions Group intends to build and operate WiMAX/Wi-Fi
networks for wireless service providers, cable operators, multimedia content
distributors, applications service providers and Internet service providers. At
present, NSG has not entered into any such arrangements and may not be able to
negotiate such arrangements on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are unable to
establish and maintain these service arrangements, we may have to modify our
plans for the Network Solutions Group.

OUR BUSINESSES WHICH CURRENTLY GENERATE REVENUE ARE DEPENDENT ON A LIMITED
NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS.

      Our PacketVideo, GO Networks and IPWireless businesses currently generate
revenue but are dependent on a limited number of customers. For the six months
ended June 30, 2007, revenues from Verizon Wireless Communications and T-Mobile
International accounted for 54% and 22%, respectively, of our total revenues. We
expect that our PacketVideo subsidiary will continue to generate a significant
portion of its revenues through a limited number of mobile phone and device
manufacturers and wireless carriers for the foreseeable future, although these
amounts may vary from period-to-period. If any of these customers terminate
their relationships with us, our revenues and results of operations could be
materially adversely affected.

WE ARE DEPENDENT ON A SMALL NUMBER OF INDIVIDUALS, AND IF WE LOSE KEY PERSONNEL
UPON WHOM WE ARE DEPENDENT, OUR BUSINESS WILL BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.

      Our future success depends largely upon the continued service of our board
members, executive officers and other key management and technical personnel,
particularly Allen Salmasi, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Mr.
Salmasi has been a prominent executive and investor in the technology industry
for over 20 years, and the Company has benefited from his industry relationships
in attracting key personnel and in implementing acquisitions and strategic
plans. In addition, in order to develop and achieve commercial deployment of our
mobile broadband products and technologies in competition with well-established
companies such as Intel, QUALCOMM and others, we must rely on highly specialized
engineering and other talent. Our key employees represent a significant asset,
and the competition for these employees is intense in the wireless
communications industry. We continue to anticipate significant increases in
human resources, particularly in engineering resources, through 2008. If we are
unable to attract and retain the qualified employees that we need, our business
may be harmed.

      As a company without a significant operating history, we may have
particular difficulty attracting and retaining key personnel in periods of poor
operating performance given the significant use of incentive compensation by
well-established competitors. We do not maintain key person life insurance on
any of our personnel. We also have no covenants against competition or
nonsolicitation agreements with certain of our key employees. The loss of one or
more of our key employees or our inability to attract, retain and motivate
qualified personnel could negatively impact our ability to design, develop and
commercialize our products and technology.

WE MAY NEED TO SECURE SIGNIFICANT ADDITIONAL CAPITAL IN THE FUTURE TO IMPLEMENT
CHANGES TO, OR EXPANSIONS OF, OUR BUSINESS PLAN AND TO CONTINUE TO FUND OUR
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES AND OUR OPERATING LOSSES UNTIL WE BECOME
CASH FLOW POSITIVE.

      We may need to secure significant additional capital in the future to
implement changes to, or expansions of, our business plan and to continue to
fund our research and development activities and our operating losses until we
become cash flow positive. We currently anticipate that our second generation
NextWave Broadband WiMAX technologies designed for high volume commercial
production will initially be available in the first quarter of 2008. However, we
may not able to meet this timeframe and therefore the commercial deployment of
these products could be delayed, which could adversely affect our competitive
position as well as our ability to become cash flow positive and show future
profitability. Unexpected expenses and delays in development, or delays in the
adoption of WiMAX and other 4G technologies by national telecommuncations
carriers and equipment manufacturers, could adversely affect our liquidity.
Sources of additional capital may include public or private debt and equity
financings.

      In addition, part of our strategy is to pursue acquisitions of and
investments in businesses and technologies to expand our business and enhance
our technology development capabilities. In addition to our IPWireless, CYGNUS,
GO Networks, PacketVideo and WiMAX Telecom acquisitions, we have made
investments in a number of companies including Hughes Systique and Inquam
Broadband, and anticipate future investments in other companies or other
technologies, businesses or spectrum licenses. Our recent and future
acquisitions could result in substantial cash expenditures, potentially dilutive
issuances of equity securities, the incurrence of debt and contingent
liabilities, a decrease in our profit margins and amortization of intangibles
and potential impairment of goodwill. In addition, our investments could result


                                       15




in substantial cash expenditures, fluctuations in our results of operations
resulting from changes in the value of the investments and diversion of
management's time and attention.

      Covenants in the indenture governing our senior secured notes impose
operating and financial restrictions on us. These restrictions prohibit or limit
our ability, and the ability of our subsidiaries, to, among other things:

      O     pay dividends to our stockholders;

      O     incur, or cause certain of our subsidiaries to incur, additional
            indebtedness;

      O     permit liens on or conduct sales of any assets pledged as
            collateral;

      O     sell all or substantially all of our assets or consolidate or merge
            with or into other companies;

      O     repay existing indebtedness; and

      O     engage in transactions with affiliates.

      A breach of any of these covenants could result in a default under our
senior secured notes. If we are unable to repay or refinance those amounts, the
holders of our senior secured notes could proceed against the assets pledged to
secure these obligations, which include a substantial portion of our spectrum
assets and substantially all of our other assets.

      These restrictions may limit our ability to obtain additional financing,
withstand downturns in our business and take advantage of business
opportunities. Moreover, we may seek additional debt financing on terms that
include more restrictive covenants, may require repayment on an accelerated
schedule or may impose other obligations that limit our ability to grow our
business, acquire needed assets, or take other actions we might otherwise
consider appropriate or desirable.

WE MAY BE LIABLE FOR CERTAIN INDEMNIFICATION PAYMENTS PURSUANT TO THE PLAN OF
REORGANIZATION.

      In connection with the sale of NTI and its subsidiaries other than Old
NextWave Wireless to Verizon Wireless, we agreed to indemnify NTI and its
subsidiaries against all pre-closing liabilities of NTI and its subsidiaries and
against any violation of the Bankruptcy Court injunction against persons having
claims against NTI and its subsidiaries, with no limit on the amount of such
indemnity. We are not currently aware of any such liabilities that remain
following the plan of reorganization and Verizon Wireless has not made any
indemnity claims. We have received a decree of final judgment closing the
Chapter 11 case, and all claims made in connection with the Chapter 11 case have
been resolved. Nonetheless, to the extent that we are required to fund amounts
under the indemnification, our results of operations and our liquidity and
capital resources could be materially adversely affected. In addition, we may
not have sufficient cash reserves to pay the amounts required under the
indemnification if any amounts were to become due.


                     RISKS RELATING TO GOVERNMENT REGULATION

GOVERNMENT REGULATION COULD ADVERSELY IMPACT OUR DEVELOPMENT OF WIRELESS
BROADBAND PRODUCTS AND SERVICES, OUR OFFERING OF PRODUCTS AND SERVICES TO
CONSUMERS, AND OUR BUSINESS PROSPECTS.

      The regulatory environment in which we operate is subject to significant
change, the results and timing of which are uncertain. The FCC has jurisdiction
over the grant, renewal, lease, assignment and sale of our wireless licenses,
the use of wireless spectrum to provide communications services, and the
resolution of interference between users of various spectrum bands. Other
aspects of our business, including construction and operation of our wireless
systems, and the offering of communications services, are regulated by the FCC


                                       16




and other federal, state and local governmental authorities. States may exercise
authority over such things as billing practices and consumer-related issues.

      Various governmental authorities could adopt regulations or take other
actions that would adversely affect the value of our assets, increase our costs
of doing business, and impact our business prospects. Changes in the regulation
of our activities, including changes in how wireless, mobile, IP enabled
services are regulated, changes in the allocation of available spectrum by the
United States and/or exclusion or limitation of our technology or products by a
government or standards body, could have a material adverse effect on our
business, operating results, liquidity and financial position.

CHANGES IN LEGISLATION OR REGULATIONS MAY AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO CONDUCT OUR
BUSINESS OR REDUCE OUR PROFITABILITY.

      Future legislative, judicial or other regulatory actions could have a
negative effect on our business. Some legislation and regulations applicable to
the wireless broadband business, including how IP-enabled services are
regulated, are the subject of ongoing judicial proceedings, legislative hearings
and administrative proceedings that could change the manner in which our
industry is regulated and the manner in which we operate. We cannot predict the
outcome of any of these proceedings or their potential impact on our business.

      If, as a result of regulatory changes, we become subject to the rules and
regulations applicable to telecommunications providers, commercial mobile
service providers or common carriers at the federal level or in individual
states, we may incur significant administrative, litigation and compliance
costs, or we may have to restructure our service offerings, exit certain markets
or raise the price of our services, any of which could cause our services to be
less attractive to customers. In addition, future regulatory developments could
increase our cost of doing business and limit our growth.

WE MAY NOT HAVE COMPLETE CONTROL OVER OUR TRANSITION OF EBS AND BRS SPECTRUM,
WHICH COULD IMPACT COMPLIANCE WITH FCC RULES.

      The FCC's rules require transition of EBS and BRS spectrum to the new band
plan on a Basic Trading Area ("BTA") basis. See "Government Regulation-BRS-EBS
License Conditions." We do not hold all of the EBS and BRS spectrum in the BTAs
in which we hold spectrum. Consequently, we will need to coordinate with other
EBS and BRS licensees in order to transition spectrum we hold or lease.
Disagreements with other EBS or BRS licensees about how the spectrum should be
transitioned may delay our efforts to transition spectrum, could result in
increased costs to transition the spectrum, and could impact our efforts to
comply with applicable FCC rules. On April 27, 2006, the FCC implemented new,
amended rules related to transition of the spectrum, and it adopted rules that
will permit us to self-transition to the reconfigured band plan if other
spectrum holders in our BTAs do not timely transition their spectrum.

OUR USE OF EBS SPECTRUM IS SUBJECT TO PRIVATELY NEGOTIATED LEASE AGREEMENTS.
CHANGES IN FCC RULES GOVERNING SUCH LEASE AGREEMENTS, CONTRACTUAL DISPUTES WITH
EBS LICENSEES, OR FAILURES BY EBS LICENSEES TO COMPLY WITH FCC RULES COULD
IMPACT OUR USE OF THE SPECTRUM.

      All commercial enterprises are restricted from holding licenses for EBS
spectrum. Eligibility for EBS spectrum is limited to accredited educational
institutions, governmental organizations engaged in the formal education of
enrolled students (e.g., school districts), and nonprofit organizations whose
purposes are educational. Access to EBS spectrum can only be gained by
commercial enterprises through privately-negotiated EBS lease agreements. FCC
regulation of EBS leases, private interpretation of EBS lease terms, private
contractual disputes, and failure of an EBS licensee to comply with FCC
regulations all could impact our use of EBS spectrum and the value of our leased
EBS spectrum. On April 27, 2006, the FCC released new rules governing EBS lease
terms. EBS licensees are now permitted to enter into lease agreements with a
maximum term of 30 years; lease agreements with terms longer than 15 years must
contain a "right of review" by the EBS licensee every five years beginning in
year 15. The right of review must afford the EBS licensee with an opportunity to
review its educational use requirements in light of changes in educational
needs, technology, and other relevant factors and to obtain access to such
additional services, capacity, support, and/or equipment as the parties shall
agree upon in the spectrum leasing arrangement to advance the EBS licensee's
educational mission. A spectrum leasing arrangement may include any mutually
agreeable terms designed to accommodate changes in the EBS licensee's
educational use requirements and the commercial lessee's wireless broadband


                                       17




operations. In addition, the terms of EBS lease agreements are subject to
contract interpretation and disputes could arise with EBS licensees. There can
be no assurance that EBS leases will continue for the full lease term, or be
renewed, or be extended beyond the current term, on terms that are satisfactory
to us. Similarly, since we are not eligible to hold EBS licenses, we must rely
on EBS licensees with whom we contract to comply with FCC rules. The failure of
an EBS licensee from whom we lease spectrum to comply with the terms of their
FCC authorization or FCC rules could result in termination, forfeiture or
non-renewal of their authorization, which would negatively impact the amount of
spectrum available for our use.

IF WE DO NOT COMPLY WITH FCC BUILD-OUT REQUIREMENTS RELATING TO OUR SPECTRUM
LICENSES, SUCH LICENSES COULD BE SUBJECT TO FORFEITURE.

      Certain build-out or "substantial service" requirements apply to our
licensed wireless spectrum, which generally must be satisfied as a condition of
license renewal. In particular, the renewal deadline and the substantial service
build-out deadline for our WCS spectrum is July 21, 2010; for our BRS and EBS
spectrum, the substantial service build-out deadline is May 1, 2011; and for our
AWS spectrum, the substantial service build-out deadline is December 18, 2021.
Failure to make the substantial service demonstration, without seeking and
obtaining an extension from the FCC, would result in license forfeiture.

WE HAVE NO GUARANTEE THAT THE LICENSES WE HOLD OR LEASE WILL BE RENEWED.

      The FCC generally grants wireless licenses for terms of ten or fifteen
years, which are subject to renewal and revocation. FCC rules require all
wireless licensees to comply with applicable FCC rules and policies and the
Communications Act of 1934 in order to retain their licenses. For example,
licensees must meet certain construction requirements, including making
substantial service demonstrations, in order to retain and renew FCC licenses.
Failure to comply with FCC requirements with respect to any license could result
in revocation or non-renewal of a license. There is no guarantee that licenses
we hold or lease will remain in full force and effect or be renewed.

NEW FCC CONCEPTS IMPACTING SPECTRUM USE COULD AFFECT OUR USE OF WIRELESS
SPECTRUM.

      The FCC has initiated a number of proceedings to evaluate its rules and
policies regarding spectrum licensing and usage. For example, it is considering
new concepts that might permit unlicensed users to "share" our licensed spectrum
to the extent the FCC believes harmful interference will not occur. These new
uses could adversely impact our utilization of our licensed spectrum and our
operational costs.

INTERFERENCE COULD NEGATIVELY IMPACT OUR USE OF WIRELESS SPECTRUM WE HOLD, LEASE
OR USE.

      Under applicable FCC rules, users of wireless spectrum must comply with
technical rules that are intended to eliminate or diminish harmful
radiofrequency interference between wireless users. Licensed spectrum is
generally entitled to interference protection, subject to technical rules
applicable to the radio service, while unlicensed spectrum has no interference
protection rights and must accept interference caused by other users.

WIRELESS DEVICES UTILIZING WCS, BRS AND EBS SPECTRUM MAY BE SUSCEPTIBLE TO
INTERFERENCE FROM SATELLITE DIGITAL AUDIO RADIO SERVICES ("SDARS").

      Since 1997, the FCC has considered a proposal to permanently authorize
terrestrial repeaters for SDARS operations adjacent to the C and D blocks of the
WCS band. The FCC has permitted a large number of these SDARS terrestrial
repeaters to operate on a special temporary authorization since 2001.
Permanently authorizing SDARS repeaters adjacent to the WCS band could cause
interference to WCS, BRS and EBS receivers. The extent of the interference from
SDARS repeaters is unclear and is subject to the FCC's final resolution of
pending proceedings. Because WCS C and D block licenses are adjacent to the
SDARS spectrum, the potential for interference to this spectrum is of greatest
concern. There is a lesser magnitude concern regarding interference from SDARS
to WCS A and B block licenses, and EBS and BRS licenses. Central to the FCC's
evaluation of this proposal has been the technical specification for the
operation of such repeaters. SDARS licensees are seeking rule changes that would
both unfavorably alter WCS technical operating requirements and permit all
existing SDARS repeaters to continue to operate at their current operating
parameters. Final technical rules will determine the potential interference


                                       18




conditions and requirements for mitigation. If SDARS repeaters result in
interference to our WCS, BRS or WBS spectrum, our ability to realize value from
this spectrum may be impaired.

INCREASING REGULATION OF THE TOWER INDUSTRY MAY MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO DEPLOY NEW
TOWERS AND ANTENNA FACILITIES.

      The FCC, together with the FAA, regulates tower marking and lighting. In
addition, tower construction and deployment of antenna facilities is impacted by
federal, state and local statutes addressing zoning, environmental protection
and historic preservation. The FCC adopted significant changes to its rules
governing historic preservation review of new tower projects, which makes it
more difficult and expensive to deploy towers and antenna facilities. The FCC
also is considering changes to its rules regarding when routine environmental
evaluations will be required to determine compliance of antenna facilities with
its RF radiation exposure limits. If adopted, these regulations could make it
more difficult to deploy facilities. In addition, the FAA has proposed
modifications to its rules that would impose certain notification requirements
upon entities seeking to (i) construct or modify any tower or transmitting
structure located within certain proximity parameters of any airport or
heliport, and/or (ii) construct or modify transmission facilities using the
2500-2700 MHz radio frequency band, which encompasses virtually all of the
BRS/EBS frequency band. If adopted, these requirements could impose new
administrative burdens upon use of BRS/EBS spectrum.


             RISKS RELATING TO OUR PREFERRED STOCK AND COMMON STOCK

OUR DERIVATIVE SECURITIES AND CONTINGENT EARN-OUT PAYMENTS HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO
DILUTE SHAREHOLDER VALUE AND CAUSE THE TRADING PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK AND
SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK TO DECLINE.

      As of September 29, 2007, 92,665,556 shares of our Common Stock were
outstanding. In addition, as of September 29, 2007, there were 70,782,928 shares
reserved for future issuance, of which 33,376,841 will be reserved for future
issuance upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, 22,613,657 will be
reserved for issuance upon the exercise of granted and outstanding options and
warrants and 13,959,097 will be available for future option grants under our
existing stock incentive plans and 833,333 will be available under an advisory
contract. Also, up to $142.0 million of our Common Stock may be issued as
additional consideration to former IPWireless shareholders and under the
IPWireless Employee Stock Bonus Plan upon the achievement of certain revenue
milestones related to IPWireless' public safety business and TDtv Business and
up to $30.6 million of our Common Stock may be issued as additional
consideration to former GO Network shareholders and under the GO Networks
Employee Stock Bonus Plan upon the achievement of certain revenue milestones
relating to the sales of GO Network's Wi-Fi base station products.

      In March 2007, we issued 355,000 shares of Series A Senior Convertible
Preferred Stock at a price of $1,000 per share of convertible preferred stock in
a private offering to investment funds and other institutional investors, as
well as shareholders of the Company, including NextWave Wireless Chairman and
CEO, Allen Salmasi, and from Douglas Manchester, a member of the NextWave
Wireless Board of Directors and Avenue Capital Group, of which Robert T.
Symington, a member of the NextWave Board, is a portfolio manager. The Series A
Senior Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of our Common
Stock upon election of the holders at any time and at our election under certain
circumstances. Assuming that we do not elect to pay dividends in cash prior to
March 2011 and if all shares of Series A Senior Convertible Preferred Stock were
converted at such time, we would be obligated to issue 43,476,673 million shares
of our Common Stock.

      The exercise or conversion of these derivative securities into shares of
Common Stock or the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to earn-outs may result in
significant dilution to our current stockholders. While the milestones giving
rise to our contingent earn-out payments may never be met or met only in part,
these obligations to issue additional shares of Common Stock may result in a
significant dilution to our current stockholders. In addition, sales of large
amounts of Common Stock in the public market upon exercise or conversion of
derivative securities or upon achievement of earn-outs could materially
adversely affect the share price. We have agreed to register the resale of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of our warrants and
Series A Preferred Stock and upon achievement of earn-outs in connection with
the IPWireless and GO Networks transactions. The registration of such resales
could facilitate the sale of such shares into the market.



                                       19




      In addition, we may need to raise additional funds to fund our operations,
to pay for an acquisition or to enter into a strategic alliance, and we might
use equity securities, debt, cash, or a combination of the foregoing to finance
such activities. If we use equity securities, our stockholders may experience
dilution. A significant amount of our Common Stock coming on the market at any
given time could result in a decline in the price of our Common Stock or
increased volatility.

OUR COMMON STOCK IS THINLY TRADED AND THUS THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK
IS PARTICULARLY SENSITIVE TO TRADING VOLUME AND THE TRADING PRICE OF OUR SERIES
A PREFERRED STOCK MAY BE ADVERSELY affected.

      Our low trading volume has historically resulted in substantial volatility
in the market price of our Common Stock, and may make it more difficult for us
to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price
that we deem appropriate. In addition, due to the relatively low volume of
trading in our Common Stock, stockholders may not be able to purchase or sell
shares, particularly large blocks of shares, as quickly and as inexpensively as
if the trading volume were higher. The sale of a significant position in Common
Stock by a large shareholder also may lead the price of our stock to decline.
Because our Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into our Common Stock,
volatiliy or depressed prices for our Common Stock could have a similar effect
on the trading prices of our Series A Preferred Stock. More generally, the
market for technology stocks has been extremely volatile, and has from time to
time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that bear little
relationship or are not proportionate to the past or present operating
performance of those companies.

AN ACTIVE TRADING MARKET FOR OUR SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK MAY NOT DEVELOP, AND
YOU MAY BE UNABLE TO RESELL YOUR SHARES OF SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK AT OR ABOVE
THE PURCHASE PRICE.

      We do not intend to list the Series A Preferred Stock on any national
securities exchange or to take any action to make it eligible for any automated
quotation system other than the PortalSM Market. The Series A Preferred Stock is
not currently eligible to trade on the PortalSM Market. Consequently, a liquid
trading market for the Series A Preferred Stock may not develop and the market
price of the Series A Preferred Stock may be volatile. As a result, you may be
unable to sell your shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a price equal to or
greater than that which you paid, if at all.

THE SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK RANKS JUNIOR TO ALL OF OUR LIABILITIES.

      The Series A Preferred Stock ranks junior to all of our liabilities and
all liabilities of our subsidiaries and any capital stock of our subsidiaries
held by others. In the event of any bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution or
winding-up, our assets will be available to pay obligations on the Series A
Preferred Stock, including the liquidation preference of your shares of the
Series A Preferred Stock payable upon liquidation event or deemed liquidation
event, only after all our indebtedness and other liabilities have been paid.

WE MAY NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT EARNINGS AND PROFITS IN ORDER FOR DISTRIBUTIONS ON
THE PREFERRED STOCK TO BE TREATED AS DIVIDENDS.

      The dividends paid by us may exceed our current and accumulated earnings
and profits, as calculated for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This would
result in the amount of the dividends that exceeds such earnings and profits
being treated first as a return of capital to the extent of the holder's
adjusted tax basis in the preferred stock, and the excess as capital gain. Such
treatment will generally be unfavorable for corporate holders and may also be
unfavorable for certain other holders.

A HOLDER OF SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK MAY BE TREATED AS RECEIVING DEEMED
DISTRIBUTIONS THAT MAY BE INCLUDIBLE IN INCOME.

      If the Series A Preferred Stock is not respected as participating
preferred stock, in accordance with certain provisions of the Internal Revenue
Code and the Treasury Regulations, a holder of such preferred stock, despite the
absence of any actual payment of cash to the holder, may be treated as receiving
constructive distributions over the term of the Series A Preferred Stock or at
the time of any conversion into our Common Stock. In either such case, the


                                       20




holder may be required to pay taxes on such constructive distributions in the
same manner as an actual distribution.

WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO PAY THE LIQUIDATION PREFERENCE PREMIUM OF THE PREFERRED
STOCK UPON A DEEMED LIQUIDATION EVENT OR A MANDATORY REDEMPTION AND WE MAY NOT
BE ABLE TO PAY CASH DIVIDENDS ON THE PREFERRED STOCK WHEN REQUIRED.

      In the event of a deemed liquidation event, including events such as a
merger, sale of assets or change in control, you will have the right to receive
an amount per share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to the greater of 120% of
the liquidation preference or the amount that would have been received if such
share was converted into our Common Stock, unless the holders of shares
representing 75% of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding
elect to waive such deemed liquidation event, in which case the Series A
Preferred Stock would remain outstanding or be converted into shares of a
successor entity. We must redeem all outstanding shares of the Series A
Preferred Stock for an amount equal to the liquidation preference on March 28,
2017, up to 50% of all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock for an
amount equal to 130% of the liquidation preference if we elect to convert the
Series A Preferred Stock into shares of our Common Stock, and up to all
outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock for an amount equal to 120%
of the liquidation preference if we elect to consummate certain asset sales
without the requisite consent of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock. We
may not have sufficient cash to purchase your shares of preferred stock upon a
deemed liquidation or a redemption event. Also, the terms of our Senior Notes
contain limitations on our ability to pay the liquidation preference in cash
while the Senior Notes remain outstanding.

      Pursuant to the terms of our Senior Notes, which are due July 14, 2010, we
are not permitted to pay cash dividends on the shares of the Series A Preferred
Stock. The terms of the Series A Preferred Stock permit us to add the per share
dividend amount to the liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Stock
until March 28, 2011, in lieu of paying cash dividends, thereby increasing the
amount of the liquidation preference and the number of shares of our Common
Stock issuable upon conversion of each share of the Series A Preferred Stock.
From and after March 28, 2011, the Company is obligated to pay quarterly cash
dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock. Terms of our future indebtedness
could restrict the payment of dividends and other obligations relating to our
capital stock in cash. Even if the terms of the instruments governing our
indebtedness at such time allow us to pay cash dividends and to redeem the
preferred stock in cash, we can only make such payments when, as and if declared
by our board of directors from legally available funds. Adequate funds may not
be available to pay cash dividends to you or to redeem your shares of preferred
stock.

      Further, because we are a holding company, our ability to pay the
liquidation preference of the preferred stock for cash or to pay dividends on
the preferred stock may be limited by restrictions on our ability to obtain
funds through dividends from our subsidiaries.

OUR OPERATING RESULTS ARE SUBJECT TO SUBSTANTIAL QUARTERLY AND ANNUAL
FLUCTUATIONS AND TO MARKET DOWNTURNS.

      We believe that our future operating results over both the short- and
long-term will be subject to annual and quarterly fluctuations due to several
factors, some of which are outside management's control. These factors include:

      o     significant research and development costs:

      o     research and development issues and delays;

      o     the ability of our businesses to generate revenue adequate to cover
            their expenses;

      o     spectrum acquisition costs;

      o     manufacturing issues and delays;

      o     the status of plans for the adoption of WiMAX and other 4G
            technologies by national telecommunications carriers and equipment
            manufacturers;




                                       21




      o     impact of competitive products, services and technologies;

      o     changes in the regulatory environment;

      o     the cost and availability of network infrastructure; and

      o     general economic conditions.

      These factors affecting our future operating results are difficult to
forecast and could harm our quarterly or annual operating results and the
prevailing market price of our securities. If our operating results fail to meet
the financial guidance we provide to investors or the expectations of investment
analysts or investors in any period, securities class action litigation could be
brought against us and/or the market price of our securities could decline.

IF THE OWNERSHIP OF OUR COMMON STOCK AND SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK CONTINUES TO
BE HIGHLY CONCENTRATED, IT MAY PREVENT YOU AND OTHER STOCKHOLDERS FROM
INFLUENCING SIGNIFICANT CORPORATE DECISIONS AND MAY RESULT IN CONFLICTS OF
INTEREST THAT COULD CAUSE THE PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK AND THE SERIES A
PREFERRED STOCK TO DECLINE.

      Allen Salmasi, our executive officers and other members of our Board of
Directors beneficially own or control shares of Common Stock and Series A
Preferred Stock representing approximately 36.0% of the voting power of our
capital stock as of September 29, 2007. Accordingly, Mr. Salmasi and the other
members of the Board of Directors will be able to significantly influence
matters that require stockholder approval, including the election of directors,
any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets or
other significant corporate transactions. Our controlling stockholders may have
interests that differ from your interests and may vote in a way with which you
may disagree and which may be adverse to your interests. Corporate action may be
taken even if other stockholders oppose them. These stockholders may also delay
or prevent a change of control of us, even if that change of control would
benefit our other stockholders, which could deprive our stockholders of the
opportunity to receive a premium for their shares. The significant concentration
of ownership of our Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock may adversely
affect the trading price of our Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock due to
investors' perception that conflicts of interest may exist or arise.

IF SECURITIES OR INDUSTRY ANALYSTS DO NOT PUBLISH RESEARCH OR REPORTS ABOUT OUR
BUSINESS, IF THEY CHANGE THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS REGARDING OUR SHARES ADVERSELY OR
IF OUR OPERATING RESULTS TO NOT MEET THEIR EXPECTATIONS, THE TRADING PRICE OF
OUR COMMON STOCK AND SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK COULD DECLINE.

      The trading market for our Common Stock and the trading price of our
Series A Preferred Stock will be influenced by the research and reports that
industry and securities analysts publish about us or our business. Currently, no
analysts cover our Company. If analysts fail to publish reports about us or if
one or more of these analysts cease coverage of our company or fail to publish
reports on us regularly, we could lose visibility in the financial markets,
which in turn could cause the price of our Common Stock to decline. Moreover, if
one or more analysts who cover us downgrade our Common Stock or if our operating
results do not meet their expectations, the price of our Common Stock and Series
A Preferred Stock could decline.

THE MARKET PRICE FOR OUR COMMON STOCK MAY BE VOLATILE, WHICH COULD CAUSE THE
VALUE OF YOUR INVESTMENT IN OUR COMMON STOCK OR SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK TO
DECLINE.

      The stock market in general, and the stock prices of technology and
wireless communications companies in particular, have experienced volatility
that often has been unrelated to the operating performance of any specific
public company. Factors that may have a significant impact on the market price
of our Common Stock and accordingly the trading price of our Series A Preferred
Stock include:

      o     announcements concerning us or our competitors, including the
            selection of mobile WiMAX wireless communications technology by
            telecommunications providers and the timing of the roll-out of those
            systems;



                                       22




      o     receipt of substantial orders or order cancellations for integrated
            circuits and system software products for mobile WiMAX networks by
            us or our competitors;

      o     quality deficiencies in technologies, products or services;

      o     announcements regarding financial developments or technological
            innovations;

      o     our ability to remediate the material weakness in internal controls
            over financial reporting identified in connection with our
            restatement of revenues of our PacketVideo subsidiary;

      o     international developments, such as technology mandates, political
            developments or changes in economic policies;

      o     lack of capital to invest in WiMAX networks;

      o     new commercial products;

      o     changes in recommendations of securities analysts;

      o     government regulations, including FCC regulations governing spectrum
            licenses;

      o     earnings announcements;

      o     proprietary rights or product or patent litigation;

      o     strategic transactions, such as acquisitions and divestitures; or

      o     rumors or allegations regarding our financial disclosures or
            practices.

      Our share price may be subject to volatility, particularly on a quarterly
basis. Shortfalls in our revenues or earnings in any given period relative to
the levels expected by securities analysts could immediately, significantly and
adversely affect the trading price of our Common Stock.

      From time to time, we may repurchase our Common Stock at prices that may
later be higher than the market value of the share on the repurchase date. This
could result in a loss of value for stockholders if new shares are issued at
lower prices.

      In the past, securities class action litigation has often been brought
against a company following periods of volatility in the market price of its
securities. Due to changes in the volatility of the price of our Common Stock,
we may be the target of securities litigation in the future. Securities
litigation could result in substantial costs and divert management's attention
and resources.

PROVISIONS OF OUR CHARTER DOCUMENTS COULD DELAY OR PREVENT AN ACQUISITION OF OUR
COMPANY, EVEN IF THE ACQUISITION WOULD BE BENEFICIAL TO HOLDERS OF OUR COMMON
STOCK AND SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK, AND COULD MAKE IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR YOU TO
CHANGE MANAGEMENT.

      Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws contain provisions that could
depress the trading price of our Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock by
acting to discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of our company or
changes in management that holders of our Common Stock might deem advantageous.
Specific provisions in our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws include:

      o     our directors serve staggered, three-year terms and accordingly,
            pursuant to Delaware law, can only be removed with cause;



                                       23




      o     no action can be taken by stockholders except at an annual or
            special meeting of the stockholders called in accordance with our
            bylaws, and stockholders may not act by written consent;

      o     our board of directors will be expressly authorized to make, alter
            or repeal our bylaws, and our stockholders will be able to make,
            alter or repeal our bylaws by a vote of 66-2/3% of the issued and
            outstanding voting shares;

      o     any vacancies on the board of directors would be filled by a
            majority vote of the board;

      o     our board of directors will be authorized to issue preferred stock
            without stockholder approval; and

      o     we will indemnify officers and directors against losses that they
            may incur in investigations and legal proceedings resulting from
            their services to us, which may include services in connection with
            takeover defense measures.

      As a result of the provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and
Bylaws, the price investors may be willing to pay in the future for our Common
Stock or Series A Preferred Stock may be limited.

                SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

      This registration statement and other reports, documents and materials we
will file with the SEC contain, or will contain, disclosures that are
forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All
statements other than statements of historical facts are forward-looking
statements. These statements, which represent our expectations or beliefs
concerning various future events, may contain words such as "may," "will,"
"expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "estimates," or other
words of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing and
value of future results or future performance. These forward-looking statements
are based on the current plans and expectations of our management and are
subject to certain risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control)
and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from
historical results or those anticipated. These risks include, but are not
limited to:

      o     our limited relevant operating history;

                                 USE OF PROCEEDS

      We are registering these shares pursuant to the registration rights
granted to the selling stockholders in connection with the issuance of Series A
Preferred Stock in a private placement transaction exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act, pursuant to Regulation D. We will not
receive any proceeds from the resale of our Common Stock under this offering.

      Our net proceeds from the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock in
March 2007 were approximately $351.1 million, after deducting approximately $3.9
million in placement agent and legal fees. The net proceeds are used to fund
operations, accelerate the development of new wireless technologies, expand our
business and enable strategic acquisitions.


























                                       26





                CERTAIN MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX
                                 CONSIDERATIONS

      The following summary discusses certain material United States federal
income and, to the limited extent set forth under "non-U.S. holders," estate tax
considerations relating to the purchase, ownership and disposition of our Series
A Preferred Stock and the shares of our Common Stock received upon the
conversion of our Series A Preferred Stock. The discussion below is based upon
the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"),
the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and administrative and judicial
interpretations of the foregoing, all as in effect as of the date hereof and all
of which are subject to change, possibly with a retroactive effect.

      This summary does not purport to deal with all aspects of United States
federal income taxation that may be relevant to an investor's decision to
purchase shares of our Series A Preferred Stock. In particular, this summary
does not address tax consequences that may be applicable to special classes of
investors including, but not limited to, tax-exempt entities, insurance
companies, banks or other financial institutions, partnerships or other entities
classified as partnerships for United States federal income tax purposes, S
corporations, investors in such partnerships, S corporations or other
pass-through entities, brokers, dealers in securities, traders in securities
that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for their securities
holdings, persons liable for the alternative minimum tax, regulated investment
companies, real estate investment trusts, controlled foreign corporations,
passive foreign investment companies, retirement plans, former citizens or
former long-term residents of the United States and persons that will hold our
Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock as a position in a hedging transaction,
"straddle," "conversion transaction" or other risk reduction transaction. Except
where otherwise stated, this summary deals only with Series A Preferred Stock
held as "capital assets" within the meaning of the Code (generally held for
investment). Also not considered are the effect of any applicable foreign,
state, local or other tax laws, alternative minimum tax considerations, or
estate or gift tax considerations for U.S. holders.

      We have not sought any rulings from the Internal Revenue Service (the
"IRS"). Accordingly, the discussion below is not binding on the IRS or the
courts, and no assurance can be given that the IRS would not assert, or that a
court would not sustain, a different position from any discussed herein.

      As used herein, a "U.S. holder" is any beneficial owner of a share of
Series A Preferred Stock or of Common Stock that is for United States federal
income tax purposes:

      o     an individual that is a citizen or resident of the United States;

      o     a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation) created or
            organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state of
            the United States or the District of Columbia;

      o     an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income
            taxation regardless of its source; or

      o     a trust if it is subject to the primary supervision of a court
            within the United States and one or more U.S. persons have the
            authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or if it
            has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations
            to be treated as a domestic trust for United States federal income
            tax purposes.

A "non-U.S. holder" is any individual, corporation, trust or estate that is a
beneficial owner of a share of Series A Preferred Stock and is not a U.S.
holder, other than former citizens and former long-term residents of the United
States.

      If a partnership (including any entity treated as a partnership for United
States federal income tax purposes) is a beneficial owner of the Series A
Preferred Stock, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership generally
will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the
partnership. A beneficial owner that is a partnership and partners in such a
partnership should consult their tax advisors about the United States federal
income tax considerations of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the
Series A Preferred Stock.

CONSEQUENCES TO U.S. HOLDERS OF SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK OR COMMON STOCK



                                       27




Distributions

      Distributions with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock and Common
Stock will be taxable as dividend income when paid to the extent of our current
and accumulated earnings and profits as determined for United States federal
income tax purposes. To the extent the amount of any distributions exceeds our
earnings and profits with respect to such distribution, the excess will be
applied against and will reduce the holder's adjusted tax basis (on a
dollar-for-dollar basis) in respect of the stock as to which the distribution
was made (but not below zero). Any remaining excess will be treated as gain from
the sale or exchange of such stock, with the consequences discussed below in
"--Sale or Other Disposition."

      Dividends to Non-Corporate Shareholders. Distributions to individual
holders prior to January 1, 2011, which are treated as dividends for United
States federal income tax purposes, may qualify for taxation at a rate of 15%
applicable to long-term capital gains, provided certain holding period and other
requirements are satisfied.

      Dividends to Corporate Shareholders. Distributions to corporate holders,
which are treated as dividends for United States federal income tax purposes,
may qualify for the 70% dividends received deduction that is available to
corporate shareholders that own less than 20% of the voting power or value of
the outstanding stock of the distributing corporation. A corporate shareholder
holding 20% or more of the distributing corporation may be eligible for an 80%
dividends received deduction. No assurance can be given that we will have
sufficient earnings and profits (as determined for United States federal income
tax purposes) to cause distributions to be eligible for a dividends received
deduction.

      The dividends received deduction is only available if certain holding
period and taxable income requirements are satisfied. The length of time that a
shareholder has held its stock is reduced for any period during which the
shareholder's risk of loss with respect to the stock is diminished by reason of
the existence of certain options, contracts to sell, short sales or similar
transactions. In addition, to the extent that a corporation incurs indebtedness
that is directly attributable to an investment in the stock on which the
dividend is paid, all or a portion of the dividends received deduction may be
disallowed.

      The benefit of the dividends received deduction to a corporate holder of
our Series A Preferred Stock may be effectively reduced or eliminated by
operation of the "extraordinary dividend" provisions of Section 1059 of the
Code. Section 1059 requires the corporate recipient to reduce its adjusted tax
basis in its stock by the amount excluded from income as a result of the
dividends received deduction. The excess of the excluded amount over basis may
be treated as gain from the sale or exchange of the stock. A dividend may be
treated as "extraordinary" if (i) it equals or exceeds 5% of the holder's
adjusted tax basis in the stock (reduced for this purpose by the non-taxed
portion of any prior extraordinary dividend), treating all dividends having
ex-dividend dates within an 85-day period as one dividend, or (ii) it exceeds
20% of the holder's adjusted tax basis in the stock, treating all dividends
having ex-dividend dates within a 365-day period as one dividend. For these
purposes, any deemed dividends arising by reason of the application of Section
305 of the Code, as discussed below, are taken into account.

      A U.S. holder should consult its own tax advisors regarding the
availability of the reduced dividend tax rate and the dividends received
deduction in the light of its particular circumstances.

Constructive Dividends Under Section 305

      Under Section 305 of the Code, certain transactions are treated as
creating dividend distributions on stock, despite the absence of any actual
payment of cash (or property) to the holder of such stock. Of particular
potential relevance to holders of our Series A Preferred Stock is that, under
such section, a holder of preferred stock may be treated as receiving
constructive distributions over the term of the preferred stock based on the
excess, if any, of the stock's redemption price over the stock's issue price
(subject to a de minimis exception) - sometimes referred to herein as "Preferred
OID" - unless the preferred stock participates in corporate growth to any
significant extent (disregarding conversion privileges). A right to participate
in corporate growth that lacks substance (i.e., as to which it is reasonable to
anticipate at the time of the distribution that there is little or no likelihood
of participating beyond a fixed preferential return) will not be respected.
Pursuant to the Treasury Regulations, and absent facts and circumstances
suggesting that there is little or no likelihood that the stock will actually
participate in the corporation's growth, stock which enjoys a priority as to
dividends and on liquidation and is entitled to participate, over and above such



                                       28




priority, with another less privileged class of stock in earnings and profits
and upon liquidation, would be respected as participating preferred stock for
purposes of Section 305 and thus the Preferred OID rules of Section 305 would
not be applicable to such stock.

      Our Series A Preferred Stock has the right to participate, over and above
its preference amount, in any dividends or liquidation proceeds along with the
Common Stock, on an as-if converted basis (see "Description of Capital Stock -
Series A Preferred Stock - Dividend Rights" and "Description of Capital Stock -
Common Stock - Dividend Rights," respectively). It is possible that dividends
may in any given year exceed the dividend preference. In addition, (i) upon
certain deemed liquidation events, including a change in control, a merger or a
sale of substantially all our assets, we are required to redeem the Series A
Preferred Stock at a redemption price equal to the greater of 120% of its
liquidation preference or the amount receivable on our Common Stock, on an as if
converted basis; (ii) in the event of certain asset sale transactions where we
fail to obtain approval of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, we are
required to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock at a redemption price equal to
120% of its liquidation preference, and (iii) in the event we elect to convert
the Series A Preferred Stock after our Common Stock price has reached a certain
qualifying threshold, we are required to redeem (but not more than 50% of the
outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock) the shares of any holders of
Series A Preferred Stock who elect not to convert into Common Stock at a price
equal to 130% of the liquidation preference. We believe that there is a
reasonable likelihood that one of these events will occur. The Series A
Preferred Stock is also subject to a 10-year mandatory redemption, in which case
there is no participation or growth feature. Based on the foregoing facts and
circumstances, and consistent with the Purchase Agreement, we currently intend
to treat the Series A Preferred Stock as participating preferred stock for
purposes of Section 305. There is no assurance, however, that the IRS or the
courts will not take a contrary position. In general, each holder is bound by
our determination as to whether there is a constructive distribution, unless the
holder explicitly discloses that it is taking a contrary position in a statement
attached to its timely filed tax return for the taxable year in which it
acquires the stock.

      If, contrary to our position, the Series A Preferred Stock were considered
to be non-participating preferred stock for Section 305 purposes, the difference
between the Series A Preferred Stock's "redemption price" and its issue price
would be treated as Preferred OID, resulting in one or more constructive
distributions to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock. In this regard, it
is possible that the 20% or 30% premiums over liquidation preference might have
to be taken into account on a projected basis in determining the redemption
price. In addition, in the event we determine not to declare and pay dividends
in cash for any quarter before the fourth anniversary of issuance, the per share
dividend amount will be added to the liquidation preference of the Series A
Preferred Stock. It is possible that such increase in the liquidation preference
could be equated to Preferred OID and treated as a constructive distribution for
that quarter. Any constructive distribution would be treated in the same manner
as an ordinary distribution over the term of the Series A Preferred Stock,
regardless of whether the holder is a cash or accrual method taxpayer. See
"--Distributions" above. Accordingly, to the extent we have available earnings
and profits, or such distribution exceeds the holder's adjusted tax basis in its
stock, the holder would recognize taxable income prior to any corresponding cash
payment.

      Aside from the treatment of any Preferred OID, the presence of an
adjustment to the conversion price at which the Series A Preferred Stock is
convertible into Common Stock may also result in constructive distributions to
the holders of such stock, as discussed below in "--Adjustment to Conversion
Price."

Sale or Other Disposition

      A U.S. holder will generally recognize capital gain or loss on a sale,
exchange or other disposition of our Series A Preferred Stock or our Common
Stock equal to the difference between the amount realized upon the sale,
exchange or other disposition and the holder's adjusted tax basis in the stock
sold, exchanged or otherwise disposed of. Such capital gain or loss will be
long-term capital gain or loss if the holder's holding period for the stock sold
or exchanged is more than one year. Long-term capital gains of non-corporate
taxpayers currently are taxed at a maximum 15% rate. The deductibility of
capital losses is subject to limitations.

Redemption

      In the case of a redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock for cash or
property, the United States federal income tax treatment of the redemption
depends on the particular facts relating to such holder at the time of the



                                       29




redemption. If the redemption of such stock (i) is "not essentially equivalent
to a dividend" with respect to the holder, (ii) is "substantially
disproportionate" with respect to the holder (defined generally as a greater
than 20% reduction in a shareholder's relative voting stock of a corporation),
or (iii) results in a "complete termination" of all of such holder's equity
interest in the corporation, then the receipt of cash or property by such holder
will be respected as a sale or exchange of its stock and taxed accordingly. In
applying these tests, certain constructive ownership rules apply to determine
stock ownership. For this purpose, the holder is deemed to own any shares of our
stock that are owned, or deemed owned, by certain related persons and entities,
as well as any stock that the holder or a related person or entity has the right
to acquire by exercise of an option.

      If the redemption does not qualify for sale or exchange treatment, the
holder will instead be treated as having received a distribution on such stock
with the general consequences described above in "-- Distributions." If the
holder does not retain any actual stock ownership in us following such
redemption, the holder may lose its tax basis completely (in that the tax basis
would shift to the stock that was treated as constructively owned by the
holder). If such distribution is taxable as a dividend to a corporate
shareholder, it will be subject to the "extraordinary dividend" provisions of
Section 1059 of the code as discussed above in "-- Distributions - Dividends to
Corporate Shareholders."

Conversion of Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock

      As a general rule, a U.S. holder will not recognize any gain or loss in
respect of the receipt of Common Stock upon the conversion of the Series A
Preferred Stock, except in respect of (i) any cash paid to a holder in lieu of
fractional shares and (ii) any Common Stock received attributable to any unpaid
dividends (as discussed in the next paragraph). The adjusted tax basis of the
Common Stock received on conversion will (except with respect to any unpaid
dividends taxable upon conversion) equal the adjusted tax basis of the Series A
Preferred Stock converted less the portion of the holder's tax basis allocable
to any fractional share, and the holding period of such Common Stock received on
conversion will (except with respect to any unpaid dividends taxable upon
conversion) generally include the period during which the converted Series A
Preferred Stock was held prior to conversion.

      If, contrary to our position (see "--Constructive Dividends Under Section
305" above), the Series A Preferred Stock is considered non-participating
preferred stock for purposes of Section 305 of the Code, a portion of the Common
Stock received should be treated as a constructive distribution on the Series A
Preferred Stock in an amount equal to any increase in the liquidation preference
due to unpaid dividends (but only to the extent such increase was not previously
treated as a constructive distribution, and not in excess of the amount, if any,
by which the fair market value of the Common Stock received on conversion
exceeds the issue price of the Series A Preferred Stock). The constructive
distribution would have the consequences as described above under
"--Distributions" for ordinary distributions. The tax basis of the portion of
the Common Stock so received will be the amount of such distribution, and the
holding period for such portion will commence on the day after receipt.

Adjustment of Conversion Price

      The conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock, as determined based
on such stock's liquidation preference, is subject to adjustments in various
circumstances. As discussed above in "--Constructive Dividends Under Section
305," we intend to take the position that the Series A Preferred Stock is
participating preferred stock for purposes of Section 305 of the Code. So
treated, most adjustments to the conversion ratio of the Series A Preferred
Stock would not be taxable. If, contrary to our position, the Series A Preferred
Stock is treated as non-participating preferred stock, applicable Treasury
Regulations would treat a holder of our Series A Preferred Stock as having
received a constructive distribution if, and to the extent that, certain
adjustments in the conversion price increase the proportionate interest of such
holder in our earnings and profits. Adjustments to the conversion price made
pursuant to a bona fide reasonable adjustment formula which has the effect of
preventing dilution in the interest of a holder of the Series A Preferred Stock
generally will not be considered to result in a constructive distribution.

      In addition, a failure to make an adjustment to the conversion price of
our Series A Preferred Stock could potentially give rise to constructive
distributions to holders of our Common Stock.





                                       30




      Thus, under certain circumstances, U.S. holders may recognize income in
the event of an adjustment to the conversion ratio even though they do not
receive any cash or property. In general, any constructive distribution would
have the consequences described above under "--Distributions" for ordinary
distributions.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding on U.S. Holders

      Certain U.S. holders may be subject to backup withholding with respect to
the payment of dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock and to
certain payments of proceeds on the sale of our Series A Preferred Stock or our
Common Stock unless such U.S. holders provide proof of an applicable exemption
or a correct taxpayer identification number, and otherwise comply with
applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules.

      Any amount withheld under the backup withholding rules from a payment to a
holder is allowable as a credit against such holder's United States federal
income tax, which may entitle the U.S. holder to a refund, provided that the
holder provides the required information to the IRS. Moreover, certain penalties
may be imposed by the IRS on a holder who is required to furnish information but
does not do so in the proper manner.

      U.S. holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the
application of backup withholding in their particular circumstances and the
availability of and procedure for obtaining an exemption from backup withholding
under current Treasury Regulations.


CONSEQUENCES TO NON-U.S. HOLDERS OF SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK OR COMMON STOCK

Dividends

      Generally, dividends (including any constructive distributions, as
discussed above under "--Consequences to U.S. Holders of Series A Preferred
Stock or Common Stock-- Constructive Dividends Under Section 305" and " --
Adjustment of Conversion Price") paid to a non-U.S. holder by a U.S. corporation
are subject to a 30% United States withholding tax, or such lower rate as may be
specified by an applicable tax treaty, unless the dividends are (i) effectively
connected with a trade or business carried on by the non-U.S. holder within the
United States or (ii) if a tax treaty applies, attributable to a United States
permanent establishment maintained by the non-U.S. holder.

      Dividends effectively connected with such trade or business or, if a
treaty applies, attributable to such permanent establishment will generally be
subject to United States federal income tax on a net basis at applicable
individual or corporate rates and will not be subject to United States
withholding tax if certain certification requirements are satisfied. A non-U.S.
holder that is a corporation may also be subject to a "branch profits tax" at a
30% rate (or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax
treaty) on the deemed repatriation from the United States of its "effectively
connected earnings and profits," subject to certain adjustments.

      To claim exemption from or reduction in the 30% withholding tax rate, a
non-U.S. holder must provide us or our agent, prior to the payment of the
dividends, with a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI (in the case of U.S. trade
or business income), IRS Form W-8BEN (in the case of a treaty), or other form
that the IRS designates, as applicable. These forms must be periodically
updated. In certain circumstances, a non-U.S. holder who is claiming the
benefits of an applicable tax treaty may be required to obtain and provide a
United States taxpayer identification number or certain documentary evidence
issued by foreign governmental authorities to prove such non-U.S. holder's
residence in that country. Also, current Treasury Regulations provide special
procedures for payments of dividends through qualified intermediaries.

      The Treasury Regulations provide that a distributing corporation that
determined at the end of a taxable year in which a distribution is made that it
underwithheld on such distribution because, for example, at the time of the
distribution it did not then have, nor expected to have for such taxable year,
any earnings and profits but in fact did have earnings and profits for the
taxable year, is liable for the amount underwithheld. Therefore, even in the
absence of earnings and profits at the time of a distribution to the holders of
Series A Preferred Stock, we may decide, in our sole discretion, to withhold on
such distribution to satisfy our withholding tax obligations.



                                       31




Sale or Other Disposition

      A non-U.S. holder generally will not be subject to United States federal
income or withholding tax on income or gain realized on the sale or exchange of
the Series A Preferred Stock or the Common Stock (not including any amounts
attributable to declared and unpaid dividends, which will be taxable to a
non-U.S. holder of record as described above under "--Consequences to Non-U.S.
Holders of Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock--Dividends") unless:

      o     the gain is effectively connected with a United States trade or
            business of the holder (or, if a tax treaty applies, the gain is
            attributable to a United States permanent establishment maintained
            by such non-U.S. holder);

      o     the non-U.S. holder, in the case of a nonresident alien individual,
            is present in the United States for 183 or more days in the taxable
            year of the sale or disposition and certain other conditions are
            met; or

      o     we are, or have been within the five years preceding the holder's
            disposition of the Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock, a
            "United States real property holding corporation" ("USRPHC") for
            United States federal income tax purposes. We believe that we have
            not been and are not currently a USRPHC for United States federal
            income tax purposes, nor do we anticipate becoming a USRPHC in the
            future. However, no assurance can be given that we will not become a
            USRPHC.

Conversion into Common Stock

      The United States federal income tax consequences to non-U.S. holders with
respect to the conversion of our Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock
generally should be the same as described above under "--Consequences to U.S.
Holders of Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock-- Conversion of Series A
Preferred Stock into Common Stock." Any constructive distribution would be
treated in a similar manner to that described above for ordinary distributions.
See "--Dividends" above.

Federal Estate Tax

      Any Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock owned or treated as owned by
an individual who is not a citizen or resident of the United States (as
specially defined for United States federal estate tax purposes) at the time of
death will be included in the individual's gross estate for United States
federal estate tax purposes, unless an applicable estate tax or other treaty
provides otherwise, and, therefore, may be subject to United States federal
estate tax.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding on Non-U.S. Holders

      Non-U.S. holders may be subject to information reporting and backup
withholding with respect to any dividends on, and the proceeds from dispositions
of, our Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock paid to them, unless such
non-U.S. holders comply with certain reporting procedures (usually satisfied by
providing an IRS Form W-8BEN) or otherwise establish an exemption. Additional
rules relating to information reporting requirements and backup withholding with
respect to the payment of proceeds from the disposition of shares of our Series
A Preferred Stock or Common Stock will apply as follows:

      o     If the proceeds are paid to or through the U.S. office of a broker
            (United States or foreign), they generally will be subject to backup
            withholding and information reporting, unless the non-U.S. holder
            certifies that he is not a United States person under penalties of
            perjury (usually on an IRS Form W-8BEN) or otherwise establishes an
            exemption;

      o     If the proceeds are paid to or through a non-U.S. office of a broker
            that is not a United States person and is not a foreign person with
            certain specified United States connections (a "U.S. Related
            Person"), they will not be subject to backup withholding or
            information reporting; or



                                       32




      o     If the proceeds are paid to or through a non-U.S. office of a broker
            that is a United States person or a U.S. Related Person, they
            generally will be subject to information reporting (but not backup
            withholding), unless the non-U.S. holder certifies that he is not a
            United States person under penalties of perjury (usually on an IRS
            Form W-8BEN) or otherwise establishes an exemption.

      In addition, the amount of any dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder and the
amount of tax, if any, withheld from such payment generally must be reported
annually to such holder and the IRS. The IRS may make such information available
under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty to the tax authorities
in the country in which such holder resides.

      Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as
a refund or a credit against the holder's United States federal income tax
liability provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

                              SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

      The selling stockholders may from time to time offer and sell any or all
of the shares of our Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock set forth below
pursuant to this prospectus. When we refer to "selling stockholders" in this
prospectus, we mean the persons listed in the table below, and the pledges,
donees, permitted transferees, assignees, successors and others who later come
to hold any of the selling stockholders' interests in shares of our Common Stock
or Series A Preferred Stock other than through a public sale.

      The following table sets forth, as of the date of this prospectus, the
name of the selling stockholders for whom we are registering shares for resale
to the public, and the number of shares of Common Stock and Series A Preferred
Stock that each selling stockholder may offer pursuant to this prospectus. The
shares of Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock offered by the selling
stockholders were issued pursuant to exemptions from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act. At the time of purchase, the selling
stockholders represented to us that they were accredited investors and were
acquiring our Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock in the ordinary course
of business for investment and not with a view towards distribution. In
addition, each of the selling stockholders represented that it did not have any
agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to
distribute our Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock. We have agreed to file
a registration statement covering the Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock
received by the selling stockholders. We filed with the SEC, under the
Securities Act, a Registration Statement on Form S-3 with respect to the resale
of the Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock from time to time by the
selling stockholders, and this prospectus forms a part of that registration
statement.

      Based on the information provided to us by the selling stockholders and as
of the date the same was provided to us, assuming that the selling stockholders
sell all of the shares of our Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock
beneficially owned by them that have been registered by us and do not acquire
any additional shares during the offering, the selling stockholders will not own
any shares other than those appearing in the column entitled "Number of Shares
of Common Stock Owned After the Offering." We cannot advise you as to whether
the selling stockholders will in fact sell any or all of such shares of Common
Stock or Series A Preferred Stock. In addition, the selling stockholders may
have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, or may sell, transfer or
otherwise dispose of, at any time and from time to time, the shares of our
Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock in transactions exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act after the date on which it
provided the information set forth on the table below.



                                                                                  PERCENTAGE OF SHARES OWNED AFTER

(1)   As indicated in footnotes 3, 6, 7 and 8 below, certain selling
      stockholders own warrants to purchase our Common Stock. As disclosed in
      the Company's previous filings with the SEC, in July 2006, the Company
      issued its 7% Senior Secured Notes due 2010 (the "Senior Notes") in the
      aggregate principal amount of $350.0 million. The purchasers of the Senior
      Notes included, among others, affiliates of Avenue Capital Group,
      Highbridge Capital Management, LLC, Investcorp Interlachen Multi-Strategy
      Master Fund Limited, and Kings Road Investments Ltd., each of whom is a
      selling stockholder. Prior to the issuance of these warrants, there were
      no other securities transactions between our company and any of the
      selling shareholders. None of the purchasers of the Senior Notes received
      any compensation in connection with the financing. As an integral part of
      this Senior Notes financing, the Company entered into a warrant agreement
      with the purchasers of the Senior Notes whereby following completion of
      our corporate conversion holding company merger on November 13, 2006, we
      issued warrants to purchase 4,110,382 shares of Common Stock. The shares
      issuable upon exercise of the warrants represented 5% of the outstanding
      shares of our Common Stock of as of the date of our corporate conversion
      merger and before giving effect to the exercise of any warrant. The
      warrants have an exercise price of $0.01 per share (subject to certain
      adjustments as set forth in the warrant agreement) and are exercisable at
      any time from the date of issuance until July 15, 2009, and have standard
      anti-dilution protection provisions. The shelf registration statement
      registering the shares underlying the warrants was declared effective by
      the SEC on December 29, 2006.

      The warrants were issued as an integral part of the Senior Notes
      transaction, and were intended to induce the Senior Note purchasers to
      accept financing terms that were more favorable to us than otherwise
      obtainable. Of the $297.5 million paid by the Senior Note purchasers,
      $24.3 million was allocated to the purchase of the warrants. The table
      below shows the current realizable profit relating to the warrants, based
      on the difference between the current market price of our Common Stock and
      the per share exercise price and the purchase price allocation of the
      warrants.

      A description of our Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock appears
below.

COMMON STOCK

      Dividend Rights. Holders of outstanding shares of our Common Stock are
entitled to receive dividends out of assets legally available at the times and
in the amounts that our board of directors may determine from time to time.

      Voting Rights. Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to one vote for
each share of Common Stock held on all matters submitted to a vote of
stockholders. We have not provided for cumulative voting for the election of
directors in our certificate of incorporation. This means that the holders of a
majority of the shares voted can elect all of the directors then standing for
election.

      No Preemptive, Conversion or Redemption Rights. Our Common Stock is not
entitled to preemptive rights and is not subject to conversion or redemption.

      Right to Receive Liquidation Distributions. Upon our liquidation,
dissolution or winding-up, the holders of our Common Stock are entitled to share
in all assets remaining after payment of all liabilities and the liquidation
preferences of any outstanding preferred stock. Each outstanding share of Common
Stock is fully paid and nonassessable.

SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK

      Dividend Rights. The Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to receive
quarterly dividends on the liquidation preference at a rate of 7.5% per annum.
Until the fourth anniversary of issuance, we can elect whether to declare
dividends in cash or to not declare and pay dividends, in which case the per
share dividend amount will be added to the liquidation preference. From and
after the fourth anniversary of issuance, we must declare dividends in cash each
quarter, subject to applicable law. The dividend rate is subject to adjustment
to 10% per annum if we default in our dividend payment obligations, fail to file
a shelf registration statement with the SEC on or prior to July 31, 2007 or fail
to cause the shelf registration statement to be declared effective on or prior
to November 30, 2007. The dividend rate is also subject to adjustment to 15% per
annum if we fail to comply with the protective covenants of the Series A
Preferred Stock described below and to 18% per annum if we fail to convert or
redeem the Series A Preferred Stock when required to do so, as described below.
In addition to the aforementioned dividend, our Series A Preferred Stock has the
right to participate, over and above its preference amount, in any dividends or
liquidation proceeds along with the Common Stock, on an as-if converted basis.
If we were to pay a dividend in cash or any other property on our Common Stock,


                                       39




the holders of our Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to participate in
such dividend on an as-converted basis.

      Voting Rights. Pursuant to the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock, so
long as at least 25% of the issued shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain
outstanding, and until the date on which we elect to redeem all shares of Series
A Preferred Stock in connection with an asset sale, as described below, we must
receive the approval of the holders of shares representing at least 75% of the
Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding to (i) incur indebtedness in excess of
$500 million, subject to certain adjustments and exceptions, (ii) create any
capital stock that is senior to or on a parity with the Series A Preferred Stock
in terms of dividends, distributions or other rights, or (iii) consummate asset
sales involving the receipt of gross proceeds of, or the disposition of assets
worth, $500 million or more based on their fair market value. In addition, so
long as at least 25% of the issued shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain
outstanding, we may not distribute rights or warrants to all holders of our
Common Stock entitling them to purchase shares of our Common Stock, or
consummate any sale of our Common Stock, for an amount less than the fair market
value on the date of issuance, with certain exceptions. With respect to other
matters requiring stockholder approval, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock
will be entitled to vote as one class with the Common Stock on an as-converted
basis.

      Conversion Rights and Redemption Rights. Each share of Series A Preferred
Stock is convertible into a number of shares of our Common Stock equal to the
liquidation preference then in effect divided by $11.05. If all shares of Series
A Preferred Stock were to be converted at September 30, 2007, we would be
obligated to issue 33,376,841 shares of our Common Stock. The Series A Preferred
Stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder, or at our election
after the 18-month anniversary of issuance, subject to the trading price of our
Common Stock reaching $22.10 for a specified period of time, except that such
threshold price will be reduced to $16.575 on the earlier of the third
anniversary of issuance or our consummation of a qualified public offering. We
will not be entitled to convert the Series A Preferred Stock at our election
unless a shelf registration statement covering the shares of Common Stock issued
upon conversion is then effective or the shares are no longer considered
restricted securities under the Securities Act. The conversion price of the
Series A Preferred Stock will be adjusted from time to time upon the occurrence
of stock dividend, stock split or combination of shares. Upon such an event, the
conversion price will be adjusted by multiplying the current conversion price by
a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which is the
number of shares or Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event.

      We will be required to redeem all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred
Stock, if any, on March 28, 2017, at a price equal to the liquidation preference
plus unpaid dividends. The Series A Preferred Stock has an initial liquidation
preference of $1,000 per share, subject to increase for accrued dividends as
described above. If we elect to convert the Series A Preferred Stock after our
Common Stock price has reached the qualifying threshold, we must redeem the
shares of holders of Series A Preferred Stock who elect not to convert into
Common Stock at a price equal to 130% of the liquidation preference. However, we
are not required to redeem more than 50% of the shares of Series A Preferred
Stock subject to any particular conversion notice. In the event that we fail to
obtain approval of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock to an asset sale
transaction, we must either not consummate such asset sale or elect to redeem
all shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a redemption price equal to 120% of
the liquidation preference. Holders will be entitled to opt-out of such a
redemption.

      Right to Receive Liquidation Distributions. The Series A Preferred Stock
has an initial liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, subject to increase
for accrued dividends as described above. The liquidation preference would
become payable upon redemption, as described above, upon a liquidation or
dissolution of our company, or upon deemed liquidation events including a change
in control, merger or sale of all or substantially all our assets, unless the
holders of Series A Preferred Stock provide a 75% vote to not treat a covered
event as a deemed liquidation. Upon a deemed liquidation event - including a
change in control, merger or sale of all or substantially all our assets - the
Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive an amount per share equal
to the greater of 120% of the liquidation preference or the amount that would
have been received if such share had converted into Common Stock in connection
with such event.

ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECTS OF DELAWARE LAW AND THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND
BYLAWS OF NEXTWAVE WIRELESS INC.

      The provisions of Delaware law, as well as our certificate of
incorporation and bylaws described below may have the effect of delaying,
deferring or discouraging another party from acquiring control of our company.

Delaware Law

      Effective upon the listing of our Common Stock on The Nasdaq Global
Market, our company became subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the
Delaware General Corporation Law regulating corporate takeovers. In general,
those provisions prohibit a Delaware corporation from engaging in any business
combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years
following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder,
unless: the transaction is approved by the board of directors before the date
the interested stockholder attained that status; upon consummation of the
transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder,
the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the
corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced; or on or after
the date the business combination is approved by the board of directors and
authorized at a meeting of stockholders by at least two-thirds of the
outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.

      Section 203 defines business combination to include the following: any
merger or consolidation involving the corporation and the interested
stockholder; any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition of 10% or more of
the assets of the corporation involving the interested stockholder; subject to
certain exceptions, any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by
the corporation of any stock of the corporation to the interested stockholder;
any transaction involving the corporation that has the effect of increasing the
proportionate share of the stock of any class or series of the corporation
beneficially owned by the interested stockholder; or the receipt by the
interested stockholder of the benefit of any loans, advances, guarantees,
pledges or other financial benefits provided by or through the corporation.

       In general, Section 203 defines an interested stockholder as any entity
or person beneficially owning 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the
corporation and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or
controlled by any of these entities or persons. A Delaware corporation may opt
out of this provision either with an express provision in its original
certificate of incorporation or in an amendment to its certificate of
incorporation or bylaws approved by its stockholders. However, we have not opted
out, and do not currently intend to opt out of this provision. The statute could
prohibit or delay mergers or other takeover or change in control attempts and,
accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire us.

Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

      Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that:

      o     our directors serve staggered, three-year terms and accordingly,
            pursuant to Delaware law, can only be removed with cause;

      o     no action can be taken by stockholders except at an annual or
            special meeting of the stockholders called in accordance with our
            bylaws, and stockholders may not act by written consent;

      o     our board of directors will be expressly authorized to make, alter
            or repeal our bylaws, and our stockholders will be able to make,
            alter or repeal our bylaws by a vote of 66-2/3% of the issued and
            outstanding voting shares;

      o     any vacancies on the board of directors would be filled by a
            majority vote of the board;

      o     our board of directors will be authorized to issue preferred stock
            without stockholder approval; and

      o     we will indemnify officers and directors against losses that they
            may incur in investigations and legal proceedings resulting from


                                       41




            their services to us, which may include services in connection with
            takeover defense measures.

                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

      The Selling Stockholders (the "Selling Stockholders") of the Common Stock
and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time
to time, sell any or all of their shares of Common Stock on the Nasdaq Global
Market or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the
shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or
negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the
following methods when selling shares:

      o     ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the
            broker-dealer solicits purchases;

      o     block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the
            shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block
            as principal to facilitate the transaction;

      o     purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the
            broker-dealer for its account;

      o     an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the
            applicable exchange;

      o     privately negotiated transactions;

      o     settlement of short sales entered into after the effective date of
            the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part;

      o     broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a
            specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

      o     through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging
            transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

      o     a combination of any such methods of sale; or

      o     any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

      The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), if available, rather
than under this prospectus.

      Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other
brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions
or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as
agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be
negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the
case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission
in compliance with NASDR Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a
markup or markdown in compliance with NASDR IM-2440.

      In connection with the sale of the Common Stock or interests therein, the
Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or
other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the
Common Stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling
Stockholders may also sell shares of the Common Stock short and deliver these
securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the Common
Stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling
Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with
broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more
derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other
financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such
broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this
prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

      The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are
involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the
meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any
commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the
resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting


                                       44




commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders have
informed the Company that they do not have any written or oral agreement or
understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Common
Stock or the Series A Preferred Stock. In no event shall any broker-dealer
receive fees, commissions and markups that, in the aggregate, would exceed eight
percent (8%).

      The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the
Company incidental to the registration of the shares. The Company has agreed to
indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and
liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

      Because a Selling Stockholder may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within
the meaning of the Securities Act, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery
requirements of the Securities Act including Rule 172 thereunder. In addition,
any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to
Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under
this prospectus. There is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in
connection with the proposed sale of the resale shares by the Selling
Stockholders.

      We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the
date on which the shares may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without
registration and without regard to any volume limitations by reason of Rule
144(k) under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all
of the shares have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the
Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale shares will be
sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under
applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale
shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in
the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification
requirement is available and is complied with.

      Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person
engaged in the distribution of the resale shares may not simultaneously engage
in market making activities with respect to the Common Stock for the applicable
restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the
distribution. In addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject to
applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and
sales of shares of the Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders or any other
person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling
Stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this
prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale.

ITEM 15.    INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

      Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits our board of
directors to indemnify any person against expenses (including attorneys' fees),
judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by him or her in connection with any threatened, pending, or completed
action, suit, or proceeding in which such person is made a party by reason of
his or her being or having been a director, officer, employee, or agent of us,
or serving or having served, at our request, as a director, officer, employee,
or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other
enterprise, in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under
certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses
incurred) arising under the Securities Act. The statute provides that
indemnification pursuant to its provisions is not exclusive of other rights of
indemnification to which a person may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement,
vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise.

      We have adopted provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws
that limit the liability of our directors and officers for any loss, claim or
damage incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such
person on our behalf and in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be
within the scope of the authority conferred on such person by our bylaws.
However, a director or officer will be liable for any act or omission (i) not
performed or omitted in good faith or which such person did not reasonably
believe to be in our best interests or which involved intentional misconduct or
knowing violation of the law or (ii) from which such person received an improper
personal benefit.

      We will advance the costs incurred by or on behalf of any director or
officer in connection with any indemnified loss within 20 days after we receive
a detailed statement providing reasonable documentation of such costs and
providing a written undertaking stating that such person will repay all advanced
costs if it is later determined that such individual was entitled to
indemnification by us. We believe that the limitation of liability provision in
our by-laws will facilitate our ability to continue to attract and retain
qualified individuals to serve as directors and officers.

ITEM 17.    Undertakings

(a)   The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1)   To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
      post-effective amendment to this registration statement

      (i)   To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
            Securities Act of 1933;

      (ii)  To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
            effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent
            post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
            aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set
            forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
            any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the
            total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which
            was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the
            estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of







            prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in
            the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more
            than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set
            forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the
            effective registration statement;

      (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
            distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement
            or any material change to such information in the registration
            statement.

      Provided, however, that:

      Paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) of this section do not
      apply if the Registration Statement is on Form S-3 (ss.239.13 of this
      chapter) or Form F-3 (ss.239.33 of this chapter) and the information
      required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs
      is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the
      registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities
      Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the
      Registration Statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed
      pursuant to Rule 424(b) (ss.230.424(b) of this chapter) that is part of
      the Registration Statement.

(2)   That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
      Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a
      new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and
      the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
      initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3)   To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of
      the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
      the offering.

(b)   That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act
      of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section
      13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where
      applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report
      pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is
      incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to
      be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
      therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed
      to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c)   Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
      Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
      persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
      otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC
      such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
      is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
      indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
