Item 8.01.     Other Events
 
TerreStar Corporation announced today that its majority owned subsidiary TerreStar Networks Inc. received a copy of a lawsuit filed on June 25, 2008 by Sprint Nextel Corporation (“Sprint”) in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia naming TerreStar Networks Inc. as a defendant. New ICO Satellite Services, G.P. was also named as a defendant (together, with TerreStar Networks Inc., the “Defendants”).

In this lawsuit, Sprint contends that Defendants owe them reimbursement for certain spectrum relocation costs Sprint has or will incur in connection with relocating incumbent licensees from certain frequencies in the 2 GHz spectrum band. Sprint seeks, among other things, enforcement of certain Federal Communications Commission orders and reimbursement of not less than $100 million from each Defendant.  TerreStar believes the claims against it are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against this suit.
