Proposed Acquisition of CT Communications, Inc.

On May 25, 2007, CT Communications, Inc. (“CT Communications”), Windstream Corporation (“Windstream”), and Windstream Marlin, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Windstream, entered into an agreement and plan of merger pursuant to which Windstream agreed to acquire CT Communications for approximately $585 million, which includes the assumption of cash and debt. Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, Windstream will acquire all of CT Communications’ outstanding common stock in a cash merger at a price of $31.50 per share (the “Merger”). Upon completion of the Merger, CT Communications will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Windstream. The Merger is expected to close in the second half of 2007 and is subject to certain conditions, including necessary approvals from federal and state regulators and the shareholders of CT Communications. On May 29, 2007, CT Communications issued a press release announcing the Merger, as discussed above. A copy of the press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
