SAN DIEGO—Leap Wireless International Inc. completed its previously announced sale of 15 MHz of spectrum in Salt Lake City and Provo, Utah to Cingular Wireless L.L.C. for $140 million in cash.
In a similar deal, Leap announced it signed a definitive agreement to sell 10 MHz of its wireless operating licenses in Nogales, Ariz. to Cook Inlet/VS GSM IV PCS L.L.C. for an undisclosed amount. Leap will retain 20 MHz of its spectrum in Nogales, which the carrier said it believes is sufficient to launch new services.
