Some of our lawyers also represented three Sprint affiliates in litigation pending in Delaware and Illinois that sought to enjoin the closing of an $11 billion transaction in which Sprint agreed to contribute certain assets to a new venture to be called Clearwire in exchange for a majority interest in the new company. Sprint announced that it was acquiring Virgin Mobile USA, Inc. Our lawyers filed another lawsuit on behalf of the affiliates in Illinois seeking to enjoin the closing of the Sprint-Virgin transaction. Sprint ultimately resolved both of those cases when it acquired our clients.
