About this update from Lict Corp.
[{"type":"text","content":"\n \n LICT Corporation (“LICT”) is announcing that PTPMS Communications, LLC \n (“PTPMS”), a company in which LICT holds a 49% interest, filed a legal \n action on October 5, 2017 against Straight Path Communications, Inc. \n (“Straight Path”).\n \n \n This case, filed in New Jersey Superior State Court, is based on the \n proposed transfer by Straight Path to Verizon of Straight Path’s \n wireless licenses through its acquisition by Verizon for $3.1 billion. \n PTPMS sold 22 wireless licenses to Straight Path in 2012 under an \n agreement which requires that Straight Path pay PTPMS 20% of the value \n of those licenses upon any subsequent transfer of the licenses. In its \n action against Straight Path, PTPMS is seeking a ruling that Straight \n Path must pay it the value of that 20% interest due to the Verizon \n transaction, and that the transfer of PTPMS’ former licenses is null and \n void unless that payment is made. PTPMS is also requesting a trial to \n determine the total value of its 20% interest in the licenses.\n \n \n The primary counsel for PTPMS in the litigation is the law firm of \n Entwistle & Cappucci LLP.\n \n \n *************\n \n \n This release contains forward-looking information within the meaning of \n Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E \n of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
