If pursuant to this Agreement the SoftBank US Mergers will not be consummated, each of Starburst and Galaxy shall deliver to T-Mobile prior to the Closing a duly executed certificate of non-foreign status, substantially in the form of the sample certification contained in Treasury Regulations Section 1.1445-2(b)(2)(iv)(B).

(c) To the extent Treasury Regulations Section 1.358-6 were to apply with respect to the SoftBank US Mergers and the Merger, taken together, T-Mobile agrees to determine its tax basis in the Sprint shares acquired from Starburst and Galaxy in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.358-6(c)(2)(ii)(B).

Section 6.11. Takeover Statutes. If any antitakeover or similar statute or regulation is or may become applicable to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each of the parties hereto and its Board of Directors shall (i) grant such approvals and take all such actions as are legally permissible so that the transactions contemplated hereby may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and (ii) otherwise act to eliminate or, if it is not possible to eliminate, then to minimize the effects of any such statute or regulation on the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 6.12. Conveyance Taxes. Sprint and T-Mobile shall cooperate in the preparation, execution and filing of all Tax Returns, questionnaires, applications or other documents regarding any sales, use, transfer (including real property transfer), value added, stock transfer and stamp taxes, any transfer, recording, registration and other fees or any similar Taxes which become payable in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 6.13. Employee Benefits.

(a) For a period of eighteen (18) months following the Effective Time (the “Protection Period”), T-Mobile shall provide, or cause to be provided, to each employee of Sprint or its subsidiaries (i) base salary and base wages that are each on a basis no less favorable than those in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) short-term or annual cash incentive compensation opportunities, equity compensation and commission opportunities that are no less favorable in the aggregate than those in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (iii) other benefits that are no less favorable in the aggregate than the benefits provided to such employee immediately prior to the Effective Time or, commencing with the year immediately following the year in which the Effective Time occurs, that are no less favorable in the aggregate than the benefits provided to similarly situated employees of T-Mobile or its subsidiaries. In addition, during the Protection Period, T-Mobile shall provide, or cause to be provided, to each employee of Sprint or its subsidiaries with severance payments and severance benefits that are no less favorable than the greater of (i) the severance payments and severance benefits that were provided to such employee immediately prior to the Closing and (ii) the severance payments and severance benefits that are provided to similarly situated employees of T-Mobile and its affiliates from time to time.

(b) Effective as of the Effective Time, T-Mobile shall cause, for all purposes under the benefit plans of T-Mobile or its subsidiaries in which individuals who were employed by Sprint, T-Mobile or their respective subsidiaries as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Employees”) are eligible to participate following the Effective Time (the “New Plans”), each Employee to be credited with his or her years of service with Sprint or T-Mobile or any of their respective affiliates, as the case may be, before the Effective Time, to the same extent as such Employee was entitled, before the Effective Time, to credit for such service under any similar Sprint Benefit Plans or T-Mobile Benefit Plans, as applicable, except to the extent such credit would result in a duplication of benefits. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing: T-Mobile shall, to the extent permitted by the terms of the applicable New Plans, cause (i) each Employee to be immediately eligible to

A-73

participate, without any waiting time, in any and all New Plans that are welfare benefit plans to the extent coverage under such New Plan replaces coverage under a comparable Sprint Benefit Plan or T-Mobile Benefit Plan, as applicable, in which such Employee participated immediately before the Effective Time (such plans, collectively, the “Old Plans”), and (ii) for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical and/or vision benefits to any Employee, all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such New Plan to be waived for such Employee and his or her covered dependents, and any eligible expenses incurred by such Employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the Old Plan ending on the date such Employee’s participation in the corresponding New Plan begins to be taken into account under such New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Plan.

(c) Prior to making any material broad-based communications to Employees pertaining to employment, compensation or benefits matters addressed in this Agreement or related, directly or indirectly, to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each of Sprint and T-Mobile shall provide the other party with a copy of the intended communication, the other party shall have a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the proposed communication, and the party seeking to make the communication shall consider in good faith all comments of such other party.

(d) If requested by T-Mobile in writing not less than ten (10) business days before the Closing Date, the Board of Directors of Sprint (or the appropriate committee thereof) shall adopt resolutions and take such corporate action as is necessary to terminate Sprint’s 401(k) plan (the “Sprint 401(k) Plan”), effective as of the day prior to the Closing Date. The form and substance of such resolutions and any other actions taken in connection with the foregoing termination shall be subject to the review and approval of T-Mobile (which review and approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If the Sprint 401(k) Plan is terminated prior to the Closing Date pursuant to this Section 6.13(d), then following the Effective Time, the account balances of the participants in the Sprint 401(k) Plan shall be distributed to the participants, and T-Mobile shall permit the Employees who are then actively employed by T-Mobile or its subsidiaries to make rollover contributions of “eligible rollover distributions” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code including loans) in an amount equal to the full account balance (including loans) distributed to such Employee from the Sprint 401(k) Plan to T-Mobile’s 401(k) plan (the “T-Mobile 401(k) Plan”).

(e) Each Employee participating in any Sprint Benefit Plan that is an annual bonus plan (an “Annual Bonus Plan”) during Sprint’s fiscal year in which the Effective Time occurs shall be eligible to receive a bonus equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) such Employee’s full bonus entitlement under all such Annual Bonus Plans for Sprint’s fiscal year in which the Effective Time occurs, based on the greater of (A) deemed performance at “target” levels and (B) actual performance through the latest practicable date prior to the Effective Time, with such level of achievement (1) determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Sprint or such other applicable committee and (2) annualized, on a straight line basis, through the end of the quarter in which the Closing occurs, by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which equals the number of days that have elapsed during such fiscal year through the Effective Time and the denominator of which equals 365 (a “Pro-Rata Bonus”), payable following the end of Sprint’s fiscal year in which the Effective Time occurs (but in no event later than sixty (60) days following the end of such fiscal year), subject to the applicable Employee’s continued employment with T-Mobile, Sprint or any of their respective affiliates through the end of Sprint’s fiscal year in which the Effective Time occurs; provided, however, that if any such Employee becomes eligible for severance payments or severance benefits pursuant to either a Sprint Benefit Plan or T-Mobile Benefit Plan, as applicable, following the Effective Time, such Pro-Rata Bonus shall be paid to such Employee within sixty (60) days following such termination of employment (and such payment shall, if requested by T-Mobile, Sprint or any of their affiliates, be subject to the applicable Employee’s execution and non-revocation of a general release of claims in a form customarily used by T-Mobile, Sprint or their respective affiliates for their similarly situated employees).

A-74

(f) T-Mobile hereby agrees and acknowledges that a “change of control” (or similar phrase) within the meaning of the Sprint Benefit Plans shall occur at or prior to the Effective Time, as applicable.

(g) Nothing contained in this Section 6.13 shall (i) be construed to establish, amend, or modify any benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement, contract, policy or arrangement, (ii) limit the ability of Sprint, T-Mobile or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement, contract, policy or arrangement at any time assumed, established, sponsored or maintained by any of them, (iii) create any third-party beneficiary rights or obligations in any person (including any Employee) other than the parties to this Agreement or any right to employment or continued employment or to a particular term or condition of employment with Sprint, T-Mobile or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates or (iv) limit the right of Sprint, T-Mobile or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates to terminate the employment or service of any employee or other service provider following the Closing Date at any time and for any or no reason.

Section 6.14. Section 16(b). Sprint and T-Mobile shall each take all such steps as are reasonably necessary to cause the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other dispositions of equity securities of Sprint (including derivative securities) or acquisitions of equity securities of T-Mobile (including derivative securities) in connection herewith by any individual who (a) is a director or officer of Sprint or (b) at the Effective Time, will become a director or officer of T-Mobile, in each case to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Section 6.15. Notification of Certain Matters. Each of Sprint and T-Mobile shall promptly advise the other party of any Effect (a) that, individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Sprint or T-Mobile, respectively, or (b) that it believes has caused or constituted or would reasonably be expected to cause or constitute a breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement such that it would cause a failure of the applicable condition related to such breach in Article VII if the Closing were otherwise to occur on the date such Effect occurs; provided, however, that no such notification shall affect the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the parties (or remedies with respect thereto) or the conditions to the obligations of the parties under this Agreement; provided, further, that a failure to comply with this Section 6.15 shall not constitute the failure of any condition set forth in Article VII to be satisfied unless the underlying Material Adverse Effect or breach would independently result in the failure of a condition set forth in Article VII to be satisfied.

Section 6.16. Certain Litigation. Each party shall promptly advise the other party of any litigation commenced before, on or after the date hereof against such party or any of its directors or officers (in their capacities as such) by any stockholders of such party (on their own behalf or on behalf of such party) relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (any such litigation, “Stockholder Litigation”), and shall keep the other party reasonably informed regarding any such Stockholder Litigation. With respect to Stockholder Litigation commenced against Sprint or any of its directors or officers, Sprint shall give T-Mobile the opportunity to participate in the defense or settlement of any such Stockholder Litigation and no settlement shall be offered or agreed to by Sprint without T-Mobile’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). With respect to Stockholder Litigation commenced against T-Mobile or any of its directors or officers, T-Mobile shall give Sprint the opportunity to participate in the defense or settlement of any such Stockholder Litigation, and no settlement shall be offered or agreed to by T-Mobile without Sprint’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

In addition, in connection with the Debt Offer, T-Mobile may select one or more dealer managers, information agents, depositaries and other agents to provide assistance in connection therewith, and at T-Mobile’s request, Sprint shall enter into customary agreements therewith.
