(1) On November 13, 2006, NextWave Wireless Inc. became the successor to NextWave Wireless LLC pursuant to a merger. The merger resulted in NextWave Wireless Inc. becoming the parent company of NextWave Wireless LLC, but did not alter the proportionate interests of security holders.
(2) The option vests in twenty-four equal monthly installments beginning on May 13, 2005 but was fully exercisable on the date of grant as to all 33,333 shares. Any unvested portion of the option will be exercisable for restricted units subject to the same vesting schedule.
(3) The securities are owned directly by Robert T. Symington. Mr. Symington is a director of the Issuer and an employee of Avenue Capital Management II, L.P. (the "Adviser"). The Adviser is the investment adviser to Avenue Special Situations IV, L.P. and Avenue Investments L.P. (collectively, the "Funds"). On July 17, 2006, the Funds made an investment in the Issuer. Pursuant to the Funds' limited partnership agreements, any director compensation received by an employee of the Adviser related to an entity in which the Funds have invested shall be payable to the Adviser. Such amounts shall reduce certain fees and expenses of the Funds. Mr. Symington disclaims beneficial ownership of the options (and the common stock or other equity issued upon the exercise of the options) that vest on or after July 17, 2006, except for that portion of the sale proceeds necessary for Mr. Symington to satisfy any tax liabilities related thereto.
(4) The option vests in twenty-four equal monthly installments beginning May 27, 2006 but was fully exercisable on the date of grant as to all 16,666 shares. Any unvested portion of the option will be exercisable for restricted units subject to the same vesting schedule.
