** See Item 5(a)-(b) of this Amendment No. 4 to Statement on Schedule 13D.
 

 
 

 

This Amendment No. 4 amends and supplements that certain Statement on Schedule 13D filed on December 8, 2008, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 filed on February 27, 2009, that certain Amendment No. 2 filed on November 13, 2009, and that certain Amendment No. 3 filed on December 22, 2009 (collectively, the “Schedule 13D”), by Intel Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Reporting Person” or “Intel”), with respect to the Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), of Clearwire Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Clearwire” or the “Issuer”).

Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined in this Amendment No. 4 shall have the meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D.  Except as specifically set forth herein, the Schedule 13D remains unmodified.
 
Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer
 
(a)-(b)  Items 5(a)-(b) are hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:

The Reporting Person does not directly own any shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer. As of the date of filing of this Amendment No. 4, by reason of the provisions of Rule 13d-3 under the Act, the Reporting Person is deemed to beneficially own and to share voting and investment power with respect to 102,404,811 shares of Class A Common Stock that are beneficially owned as follows:
 
·  
36,759,999 shares of Class A Common Stock that are beneficially owned as follows: 33,333,333 shares of Class A Common Stock that are held of record by Intel Capital; 3,333,333 shares of Class A Common Stock that are held of record by Intel Cayman; and warrants exercisable for 93,333 shares of Class A Common Stock that are held of record by Middlefield; and
 
·  
65,644,812 shares of Class A Common Stock that are beneficially owned as follows: 21,881,604 shares of Class B Common Stock and Class B Common Units that are held of record by Intel Entity A; 21,881,604 shares of Class B Common Stock and Class B Common Units that are held of record by Intel Entity B; and 21,881,604 shares of Class B Common Stock and Class B Common Units that are held of record by Intel Entity C.

Each share of Class B Common Stock, together with one Class B Common Unit, is exchangeable at any time at the option of the holder, into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer.

In addition, by virtue of the Equityholders’ Agreement entered into at the Closing (see Item 6 of the Schedule 13D), the Reporting Person may be deemed to be a member of a “group” under Section 13(d) of the Act with respect to the 102,404,811 shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Person and the following shares which are reported separately from this Amendment No. 4, based upon the information contained in that certain Amendment No. 4 to the Statement on Schedule 13D dated December 6, 2010 filed by such persons and where such persons have reported that they beneficially own: 531,724,348 shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by the Sprint Entities, 88,504,132 shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by the Comcast Entities, 39,639,803 shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by Eagle River, 29,411,765 shares of Class A Common stock beneficially owned by Google, 46,404,782 shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by the TWC Entities, 41,468,135 shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by Craig O. McCaw and 8,474,440 shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by the BHN Entities.  The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by such other persons.

To the knowledge of the Reporting Person, none of the persons listed on Schedule A to the Schedule 13D beneficially owns any shares of the Class A Common Stock as of the date of filing of this Amendment No. 4.  Neither the filing of this Statement nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by any of the persons listed on Schedule A that he or she is the beneficial owner of any Class A Common Stock referred to herein for purposes of the Act, or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.
 
Item 6.  Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
 
Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is amended and supplemented by adding the following to the end of the disclosure under the subheading “Offering of Exchangeable Notes due 2040”:

On November 30, 2010, in connection with the offering by the Issuer’s operating subsidiary, Clearwire Communications LLC (“Clearwire Communications”), of $650 million aggregate principal amount of 8.25% exchangeable notes due 2040 (the “Offering”), Intel Capital, Intel Cayman, Middlefield, Intel Entity A, Intel Entity  B, and Intel Entity C (collectively, the “Intel Stockholders”) executed a lock-up agreement with respect to the Class A Common Stock (the “Lock-up Agreement”).  The Offering is part of a plan to raise over $1.3 billion through the offering of debt securities in private placement transactions, which was initially announced by the Issuer on December 2, 2010.  The Lock-up Agreement is filed as Exhibit 99.9 to this Amendment.  The Lock-up Agreements provide that each of the Intel Stockholders, during the period beginning on December 2, 2010 and ending on January 31, 2011, will not, subject to certain exceptions, (1) lend, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Class A Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Class A Common Stock held by such Intel Stockholder on the date of the Lock-up Agreement, or publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, (2) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Class A Common Stock or such other securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Class A Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise or (3) make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any shares of Class A Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Class A Common Stock.  The foregoing restrictions do not apply to, among other things, any disposition by the Intel Stockholders of any shares of Class A Common Stock that such Intel Stockholders received as merger consideration in the Clearwire Merger, or any contract, option or other arrangement or understanding entered into by any of the Intel Stockholders with respect to the hedging of such shares.

Further, pursuant to the terms of the Equityholders’ Agreement, each of the Intel Stockholders has preemptive rights with respect to the proposed issuance and sale of Class A Common Stock and rights to purchase or acquire Class A Common Stock, which would include the exchangeable notes in the Offering (the “Preemptive Rights”); however, each of the Intel Stockholders signed a stockholder acknowledgment as of November 30, 2010, waiving its Preemptive Rights (individually, a “Preemptive Rights Waiver” and, collectively, the “Preemptive Rights Waivers”) solely with respect to the Offering.  Each Preemptive Rights Waiver has substantially the same terms as each other Preemptive Rights Waiver and a form of these Preemptive Rights Waivers is filed as Exhibit 99.10 to this Amendment.

In addition, Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is amended and supplemented by replacing the last paragraph with the following:

The foregoing summaries of certain provisions of the Equityholders’ Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Operating Agreement, the Investment Agreement, the Waiver, the Lock-up Agreement and the Preemptive Rights Waivers are not intended to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such agreements, which are filed as Exhibit 99.3, 99.4, 99.5, 99.6, 99.8, 99.9 and 99.10, respectively, hereto and each is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 7.  Material to be Filed as Exhibits.

Item 7 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following at the end thereof:

99.9           Form of Lock-up Agreement.

99.10         Form of Preemptive Rights Waiver.
