EXPLANATORY NOTE
On August 30, 2013, in order to fund an acquisition of Multiband Corporation (the “Merger”), Goodman Networks Incorporated (the “Company”) issued $100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 12.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2018 (the “Tack-on Notes”) in a private offering pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In connection with the Merger, each of the additional registrants listed on Schedule A hereto (the “Registrant Guarantors”) guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the indenture governing the Tack-on Notes. On June 6, 2014, the Company and the Registrant Guarantors commenced an exchange offer to exchange all of the Tack-on Notes for a like principal amount of notes with substantially identical terms registered under the Securities Act pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-4 that was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 6, 2014.
Pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the duty of the Company and the Registrant Guarantors to file reports under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act was suspended for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2015 because the Company’s 12.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2018, including the Tack-on Notes and an additional $225,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 12.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2018 that the Company issued on June 23, 2011 in a private offering and later exchanged for a like principal amount of notes with substantially identical terms registered under the Securities Act pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-4 that was declared effective by the SEC on December 23, 2013, were collectively held of record by less than 300 persons as of the beginning of the fiscal year that began on January 1, 2015. This Form 15 is being filed to provide notice of the statutory suspension of the filing obligation of the Company and the Registrant Guarantors, subject only to the Company’s obligation to file an Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2014 fiscal year.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, each of the undersigned registrants has caused this certification/notice to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned duly authorized person.
