Such statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. A variety of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in iPCS's forward-looking statements, including the following factors: (1) iPCS's dependence on its affiliation with Sprint; (2) the final outcome of iPCS's litigation against Sprint concerning the Sprint/Nextel merger and the scope of iPCS's exclusivity; (3) changes in Sprint's affiliation strategy as a result of the Sprint/Nextel merger and Sprint's acquisition of all but three Sprint PCS Affiliates of Sprint Nextel; (4) changes in Sprint's ability to devote as much of its personnel and resources to the remaining three Sprint PCS Affiliates of Sprint Nextel; (5) changes in iPCS's customer default rates and increases in bad debt expense; (6) changes or advances in technology; (7) changes in Sprint's national service plans, products and services or its fee structure with iPCS; (8) an increase in iPCS's expenses resulting from an increase in the CCPU rate that Sprint charges iPCS's for certain back-office services and a decrease in iPCS's revenue resulting from a decrease in the reciprocal roaming rate between us and Sprint; (9) declines in the relationship between roaming revenue iPCS receives from Sprint and roaming expense iPCS pays to Sprint; (10) iPCS's reliance on the timeliness, accuracy and sufficiency of financial and other data and information received from Sprint; (11) difficulties in network construction, expansion and upgrades; (12) increased competition in iPCS's markets; (13) iPCS's dependence on independent third parties for a sizable percentage of its sales; and (14) the inability to open the number of new stores and to expand the co-dealer network as planned.
