Legal Proceedings

In April 2018, the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) notified Array and its parent, TDS, that it was conducting inquiries of Array and TDS under the federal False Claims Act relating to Array’s participation in wireless spectrum license auctions 58, 66, 73 and 97 conducted by the FCC. Array is or was a limited partner in several limited partnerships which qualified for the 25% bid credit in each auction. The investigation arose from civil actions under the Federal False Claims Act brought by private parties in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma. In 2019, following the DOJ’s investigation, the DOJ informed Advantage Spectrum, L.P. (Advantage) and King Street Wireless, L.P. (King Street) that it would not intervene in the above-referenced actions. Subsequently, the private party plaintiffs decided to continue the actions on their own. In July 2020, these actions were transferred to the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia upon the request of Advantage and King Street and over the objection of the Relators. In March 2023, the District Court for the District of Columbia granted Advantage’s and King Street’s motion to dismiss the actions with prejudice. The private party plaintiffs appealed the district court’s decision to grant the motions to dismiss. In April 2025, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit affirmed the district court’s dismissal as to the case involving King Street. Plaintiffs filed a petition for certiorari with the U.S. Supreme Court on September 5, 2025. The Supreme Court has requested a response from the defendants. On September 26, 2025, the D.C. Circuit reversed the district court’s decision dismissing the case involving Advantage, and remanded that case to the district court for further proceedings.

Array believes that the Relators’ claims are without merit and that Advantage’s and King Street’s participation in FCC auctions complied with applicable law and FCC Rules. 

On May 2, 2023, a putative stockholder class action was filed against TDS and Array and certain current and former officers and directors in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. An Amended Complaint was filed on September 1, 2023, which names TDS, Array, and certain current Array officers and directors as defendants, and alleges that certain public statements made between May 6, 2022 and November
