CHICAGO — May 10, 2011 — United States Cellular Corporation (NYSE: USM) announced today that, on May 9, 2011, it sold $300 million of 6.95 percent Senior Notes due 2060. The notes are callable at par on and after May 15, 2016. Closing is expected to occur on May 16, 2011.

The offering is being made only by means of the prospectus.
