Item 8.01. Other Events.
We announced today that we have entered into a merger agreement with T-Mobile USA, Inc. pursuant to which our common stock will be acquired for $27 per share. A copy of the press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and is incorporated into this report by reference.
Additional Information About the Proposed Transaction and Where You Can Find It
In connection with the proposed merger, we will file a proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Investors and security holders are advised to read the proxy statement when it becomes available because it will contain important information about the merger and the parties to the merger. Investors and security holders may obtain a free copy of the proxy statement (when available) and other documents filed by us with the SEC at the SEC’s Web site at www.sec.gov. The proxy statement and other documents also may be obtained for free from us by directing such request to SunCom Wireless Holdings, Inc., Investor Relations, 1100 Cassatt Road, Berwyn, Pennsylvania 19312, telephone (610) 651-5900. You may also read and copy any reports, statements and other information filed by us with the SEC at the SEC’s public reference room at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549.
We and our directors, executive officers and other members of our management and employees may be deemed participants in the solicitation of proxies from our stockholders in connection with the proposed merger. Information concerning the interests of these participants in the solicitation, which may, in some cases, be different than those of our stockholders generally, is set forth in our proxy statements and annual reports on Form 10-K, previously filed with the SEC, and will be set forth in the proxy statement relating to the merger when it becomes available.
