Exhibit 99.2
From: Erik Prusch
To: Clearwire Employees
Subject: Vote Reminder
Team -
We're days away from the pending Sprint transaction vote on May 21 and we are reminding all stockholders to vote “FOR” the Sprint transaction using the white proxy card. Today we issued a press release reiterating the favorable recommendations of two leading proxy advisory firms, ISS and Egan-Jones.
As a reminder, if you abstain from voting it will have the same effect as a vote cast against all the proposals. Also, our Board of Directors urges you to discard any gold proxy cards you may have received, as they were sent by a dissident stockholder. If you previously submitted a gold proxy card, the Board asks that you to cast your vote as instructed on the white proxy card (this will revoke any earlier dated proxy card that you may have submitted).
Details on how to vote online are available on MAX. If you have any questions about the voting process, please contact our proxy solicitor, MacKenzie Partners, at 800-322-2885 or via email at proxy@mackenziepartners.com.
