Q: My lease agreement with Crown Castle runs for several more years. Why are you calling me now?

A: Crown Castle’s wireless customers expect that the location of their cell sites (situated on Crown Castle’s towers) will remain intact for the long term. The wireless carriers design and build their networks based on demand for coverage in a geographic area, so each site becomes an integral part of their network. Recently certain “investment firms,” not affiliated with Crown Castle, have been contacting our landowners directly to attempt to negotiate varying types of transactions. The offers made by these other parties may not be in our landowners’ best interest and we encourage our landowners to contact Crown Castle prior to executing an agreement with another firm.

Q: I’ve been contacted by a third party who I have never heard of, and they said they can give me money in a lump-sum payment. Why should I sign a new deal with Crown Castle as opposed to signing an agreement from another company?

A: Crown Castle is a professionally operated, publicly traded wireless telecommunications infrastructure company (NYSE:CCI) that has been involved in the tower industry since 1984.
