Sprint Nextel Proposed ETF Class Action Settlement

This is a settlement for the Sprint lawsuit.

- by

A proposed national Settlement has been reached in a class action proceeding alleging that Sprint Nextel's flat-rate early termination fee ("ETF") violates state and federal law.

Under the terms of the proposed settlement, Sprint Nextel has agreed to pay $14 million into a common fund to be distributed pursuant to the Settlement benefit rules set forth in the Settlement Agreement. Sprint Nextel has also agreed to provide qualified Settlement Class Members up to $3.5 million in Non-Cash Benefits.

Sprint Nextel also has agreed to not insert a flat-rate ETF provision into its customer service agreements for personal wireless service in the United States for 24 months. Sprint Nextel customer agreements initiated after November 3, 2008 have pro-rated ETFs, and the Settlement does not require Sprint Nextel to modify those contracts.

If you are or have been a party to a term contract with a flat-rate ETF on a Sprint, Nextel and/or Sprint Nextel personal account, you may be a member of the Settlement Class whose rights are affected by this Settlement and you should review the Agreement to find out more. A copy of the Stipulation and Settlement Agreement is posted on the Settlement Administrator's website, http://www.sprintetfsettlement.com.

The Settlement will release all claims that customers may have against Sprint Nextel relating in any way to its flat-rate ETFs and term contracts, and will bar future claims, unless the individual excludes him/her self from the Settlement.
