"As the more than $19 billion raised by the FCC at its recent 700 MHz spectrum auction clearly demonstrates, we are increasingly living in a wireless world and IDT Spectrum is well-positioned to unlock the potential of wireless broadband through our high frequency Spectrum licenses. We have the ability to provide the bandwidth which is necessary to successfully deploy these technologies, said Jim Courter, IDT's Vice Chairman and CEO.

With more than 1,250 licenses in its inventory, IDT Spectrum is the largest holder of commercial high frequency exclusively licensed fixed wireless spectrum in the United States, both in terms of nationwide coverage and total bandwidth. On average, the Company holds more than 500 MHz of spectrum in the top 200 U.S. markets and approximately 940 MHz of spectrum in the top 50 U.S. markets. IDT Spectrums licensesboth its 39 GHz and LMDS (28-31 GHz) holdingsare contiguous across the whole United States (including Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico), giving the Company the competitive advantage of being able to serve customers nationwide. The licenses held by IDT Spectrum are suited for high bandwidth point to point applications, including the needs of wireless operators to carry traffic from cell sites to network access pointsreferred to in the industry as backhaul.

Michael Rapaport, IDT Spectrums President, added, IDT has a proud history of leveraging advanced technologies to deliver high quality services at reduced prices. IDT Spectrum looks forward to offering a high quality, cost-effective solution to the backhaul bottleneck issue as wireless carriers deploy more 3G and 4G services. To that point, we now offer a fixed wireless solution that can offer nationwide, regional or local spectrum leases either in large frequency blocks or point-to-point links. IDT Spectrum is pleased to launch our new online leasing program to serve backhaul and other customer needs, which will enable our rapid time-to-market approach to get even faster.
