Item 2(a), Item 2(b) and Item 2(c). Name of Person Filing, Address of Principal Business Office
and Citizenship:
This Schedule 13G is filed on behalf of Motorola, Inc., (the Reporting Person), a
Delaware corporation, whose principal business office is 1303 Algonquin Road,
Schaumburg, IL 60196.
Pursuant to Rule 13d-5(b)(1) of Regulation 13D-G of the General Rules and
Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act), the
Reporting Person, along with certain individuals and corporations (the
Non-Reporting Persons) identified below, may be deemed, as a group, to have
beneficial ownership of certain shares of the Class A Common Stock (the Class A
Common Stock) and Class B Common Stock (the Class B Common Stock) of NPI as a
result of the Reporting Person and the Non-Reporting Persons being signatories to
the Amended and Restated Shareholders Agreement, dated February 18, 2000, as
amended, by and among NPI and the shareholders listed therein, (the Shareholders
Agreement). Neither the fact of this filing nor anything contained herein shall be
deemed to be an admission by the Reporting Person that a group exists within the
meaning of the Exchange Act. The holders of the Class A and Class B Common Stock
are entitled to one vote per share on all matters in which they are entitled to
vote. Based on information provided by Nextel WIP Corp., it owns 100% of the
outstanding Class B Common Stock, which is convertible into Class A Common Stock on
a one-for-one basis at any time upon transfer to a person other than Nextel
Communications, Inc. (NCI), a majority-owned NCI subsidiary or a person or entity
controlling NCI. However, because such transfers are prohibited under the
Shareholders Agreement and the Issuers Restated Certificate of Incorporation until
January 29, 2011, this Schedule 13G assumes Nextel WIP Corp. does not currently have
the right to acquire shares of Class A Common Stock upon conversion of the Class B
Common Stock.

subsidiary or a person or entity controlling NCI. However, because such transfers are
prohibited under the Shareholders Agreement and the Issuers Restated Certificate of
