the additional base stations deployment, we will deliver an ultra-fast

replicated in these new markets " he stated

faster and more efficient network for better service experience. This will
also enable us to improve the experience of our existing 4G LTE customers
as we deploy more of our spectrum and base station resources to add more
capacity to the network. Closer to the time the new upgrade will be ready, we
will formally inform our customers as to how they can exchange their 4G WiMAX
