Item 1.                                Security and Issuer
Item 1 of the Statement is hereby amended to reflect the following information for updating as of March 29, 2010.

The class of equity securities to which this statement on Amendment No. 18 relates to is the Common Stock.  The address of the principal executive office of the Company is 10802 Parkridge Boulevard, Reston VA 20191.

Since the filing of Amendment No. 17 on October 16, 2009, 9,984,270 shares of Capital Stock consisting of 2,077,533 shares of Common Stock and 7,906,737 shares of Non-Voting Common
 
 
 

 
 
SCHEDULE 13D
 
 
CUSIP No.:  83087K107  Page 9 of 17 Pages
 
Stock were released from escrow as to which the Master Fund and the Special Fund had previously disclaimed ownership to.
 
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each share of Common Stock and each share of Non-Voting Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Non-Voting Common Stock”, and together with the Common Stock, “Capital Stock”) outstanding at the effective time of the Merger (other than Capital Stock owned by the Reporting Persons, any subsidiary of the Company, and holders who have perfected and not withdrawn a demand for appraisal rights) was converted into the right to receive $5.00, in cash, without interest, and was subsequently cancelled and ceased to exist.  The Reporting Persons paid $5.00 in cash per share for each of the Company’s Capital Stock not previously held by the Reporting Persons, for a total amount of $225,737,385 reflecting 45,147,477 shares of Capital Stock converted into the right to receive $5.00, which consisted of 23,042,077 shares of Common Stock for $115,210,385 and 22,105,400 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock for $110,527,000.  Upon conversion into the right to receive $5.00, the Capital Stock was cancelled and ceased to exist.

The Reporting Persons paid a transaction consideration for the Merger of approximately $262.5 million in cash, which was determined based upon the sum of (a) the product of the per share merger consideration of $5.00 and 45,147,477 (which represents the total number of shares of the Company’s Capital Stock outstanding as of March 24, 2010, excluding 1,603,960 shares of restricted stock held by certain officers and directors of the Company, less 52,285,645 shares of Capital Stock and 9,984,270 shares of Capital Stock held in escrow, owned by the Reporting Persons, which were cancelled with no merger consideration being paid thereon), plus (b) $29,421,813 paid in connection with the cancellation of outstanding options, and (c) $7,379,335 paid in connection with cancellation of outstanding phantom units and restricted stock awards (the “Total Consideration”).
 
At the closing of the Merger, each share of any Capital Stock, including Capital Stock previously held in escrow pursuant to Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) approval of the Merger, beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons was cancelled and ceased to exist.  Following the Merger, a Form 15 Certificate and Notice of Termination of Registration under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 will be filed with the Commission terminating registration of the Common Stock of the Company.

Item 4.                                Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Statement is hereby amended to reflect the following information for updating as of March 29, 2010.

On September 23, 2009, the Company, the Master Fund, the Special Fund and Sol Private Corp., a Delaware corporation and indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Master Fund and Special Fund (the "Merger Sub"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”).  Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, the Master Fund and Special Fund (together, the “Harbinger Funds”) agreed to acquire the Company through a merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company to be the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”).  As a result of the Merger, the Company became an indirect privately-held subsidiary of the Harbinger Funds.
 
On March 29, 2010, the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of Common Stock and Non-Voting Common Stock of the Company issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares held by the Reporting Persons, shares held by any stockholders who properly exercised their appraisal rights under Delaware law, and shares held by any

subsidiaries of the Company) was converted into the right to receive $5.00 in cash (the “Merger Consideration”) and, upon conversion, was cancelled and ceased to exist.

       Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the Surviving Corporation, and (i) the directors of Merger Sub became the directors of the Surviving Corporation, (ii) the officers of the Company became the officers of the Surviving Corporation, (iii) the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation were amended to be substantially in the form of the certificate of incorporation of Merger Sub, and (iv) the bylaws of Surviving Corporation are substantially in the form of the bylaws of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time.

As a result of effectiveness of the Merger, the Company is now a privately-held corporation with no public market for the Company's stock, price quotations with respect to sales of the Company's stock in the public market are no longer available, registration of the Company’s Common Stock under the federal securities laws will be terminated, and the Company is no longer required to file periodic reports with the Commission.

As previously disclosed by the Reporting Persons, (a) in addition to the Common Stock previously owned by the Reporting Persons and subsequently cancelled pursuant to the Merger, (i) the Reporting Persons owned (A) warrants that were exercisable for Common Stock pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i) and (B) shares of the Company’s Non-Voting Common Stock that were exchangeable for Common Stock, and (ii) Common Stock and shares of Non-Voting Common Stock that were exchangeable for Common Stock, that were held in escrow, and (b) the Reporting Persons filed applications seeking FCC approval to acquire ownership of additional Common Stock, including such escrowed Common Stock, the Common Stock issuable upon exchange of such shares of Non-Voting Common Stock, and the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants.  At the Effective Time, the above interests in the Common Stock and Non-Voting Common Stock of the Company, previously held by the Reporting Persons, were cancelled and ceased to exist.

Item 5.                                Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 of the Statement is hereby amended to reflect the following information for updating as of March 29, 2010.

According to information filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, as of February 22, 2010 the number of Shares outstanding was 49,062,853 based on the Company’s Report on Form 10-K, filed on February 26, 2010.  This number includes 1,603,960 shares of restricted stock held by certain officers and directors of the Company.
 
(a) As of the date hereof, Harbinger LLC, HCPSS, Harbinger Holdings and Mr. Falcone may be deemed to beneficially own 0 Shares (constituting 0.00% of the total number of Common Stock outstanding) held for the account of the Master Fund and the Special Fund.

(b)  Harbinger LLC, HCPSS, Harbinger Holdings and Mr. Falcone may no longer be deemed to have shared power to direct the voting and disposition any Common Stock as set forth above.
 
Prior to the Merger, the beneficial ownership of shares of Capital Stock was disclosed in public filings made with the Commission by the Reporting Persons.  For purposes of clarification, when the ownership and voting percentage of the Reporting Persons are calculated using guidelines promulgated by the FCC, the ownership and voting percentages were calculated on a non-fully diluted basis (i.e., only those Capital Stock which have been issued and are outstanding are included) and include
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
SCHEDULE 13D
 
 
CUSIP No.:  83087K107  Page 11 of 17 Pages
 
only those Capital Stock actually held by the Reporting Persons in the calculation (i.e., the calculation excludes those dilutive securities which are subject to the exercise of warrants, options or other equity awards, and those which were being held in escrow pending receipt of the FCC Consent).  Using this basis of calculation, the Reporting Persons previously held approximately 46% of the Company’s Common Stock and approximately 48% of the outstanding Capital Stock of Company.
 
Pursuant to the Merger, the outstanding Capital Stock of the Company, including Capital Stock held in escrow,  previously held by the Reporting Persons were cancelled and Reporting Persons no longer have any beneficial ownership in the Surviving Corporation, which is now privately-held through an intermediary holding company, HGW US Holding Company, L.P. (“HGW”), that owns shares of the Surviving Corporation.

(d) Not applicable.

(e) Reporting Persons ceased to be beneficial owner of the Common Stock on March 29, 2010.
