Item 1.01.   Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
     On March 9, 2011, Clearwire US LLC (“Clearwire US”), an indirect subsidiary of Clearwire Corporation (the “Company”) and Amdocs Software Systems Limited (“Amdocs”) entered into an Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Customer Care and Billing Services Agreement (the “Agreement”) that was originally entered into by the parties on March 31, 2009. The Agreement calls for Amdocs to provide a customized customer care and billing platform (the “Platform”) to Clearwire US and its subsidiaries and affiliates.
     The Amendment reflects changes related to Clearwire US’s decision to (1) continue to use, and expand the use of, the Platform to support customer care and billing services for its wholesale business and (2) remain on its existing care and billing system that Amdocs also maintains for Clearwire US for its retail business. The Amendment cancels services no longer needed, such as support of system environments used for development and testing of the retail Platform. The Amendment also reduced the overall fees associated with support & customization for both the Platform and the retail care and billing system. The initial term of the Agreement and termination rights remain unchanged. Also, the license and support term of the retail care and billing system has been extended to be coterminous with the Agreement.
