Exhibit 99.1

Safe Harbor Statement

This presentation includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, regarding, among other things, our business strategy, our prospects and our financial position.  These statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” or “anticipates” or the negative or other variation of these similar words, or by discussions of strategy or risks and uncertainties.  These statements are based on current expectations of future events. If underlying assumptions prove inaccurate or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results could vary materially from the Company’s expectations and projections.  Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from such forward-looking statements  include, without limitation, risks related to the following:

Increasing competition in the communications industry; and

A complex and uncertain regulatory environment.

A further list and description of these risks, uncertainties and other factors can be found in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. Copies of this Form 10-K, as well as subsequent filings, are available online at www.sec.gov, www.shentel.com or on request from the Company.  The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information or future events or developments.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Included in this presentation are certain non-GAAP financial measures that are not determined in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles.  These financial performance measures are not indicative of cash provided or used by operating activities and exclude the effectors of certain operating, capital and financing costs and may differ from comparable information provided by other companies, and they should not be considered in isolation, as an alternative to, or more meaningful than measures of financial performance determined in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles.  These financial performance measures are commonly used in the industry and are presented because Shentel believes they provide relevant and useful information to investors.  Shentel utilizes these financial performance measures to assess its ability to meet future capital expenditure and working capital requirements, to incur indebtedness if necessary, return investment to shareholders and to fund continued growth.   Shentel also uses these financial performance measures to evaluate the performance of its business and for budget planning purposes.
