Ladies and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Rule 477(a) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), NextWave Wireless Inc. (the “Company”), hereby respectfully requests withdrawal of its Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-162796), together with all exhibits thereto (collectively, the “Registration Statement”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on February 9, 2010. The Company requests that such withdrawal be effective as of the date hereof or as soon as practicable thereafter.
The Company is requesting withdrawal of the Registration Statement because the Company does not plan to amend the Registration Statement to become effective at this time. The Company believes that the withdrawal of the Registration Statement is consistent with the public interest and the protection of investors, as contemplated by Rule 477.
The Registration Statement was not declared effective by the Commission under the Securities Act. The Company hereby confirms that no securities were issued or sold pursuant to the Registration Statement.
The Company requests that, in accordance with Rule 457(p) under the Securities Act, all fees paid to the Commission in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement be credited for future use by the Company.
