The Notes will initially be guaranteed on a senior unsecured
basis by the Company and all of T-Mobile USAs wholly-owned
domestic restricted subsidiaries (excluding certain designated
special purpose entities, a certain reinsurance subsidiary and
immaterial subsidiaries), all of T-Mobile USAs restricted
subsidiaries that guarantee certain of its indebtedness, and any
future subsidiary of the Company that directly or indirectly owns
any of T-Mobile USAs equity interests (the Guarantors). The Notes
and the guarantees will be T-Mobile USAs and the

Guarantors senior unsecured obligations and will rank equally in
right of payment with all of T-Mobile USAs and the Guarantors
existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities that are
not by their terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes
and the guarantees, and will rank senior in right of payment to
any future indebtedness of T-Mobile USA or any Guarantor that
provides by its terms that it is subordinated in right of payment
to the Notes and the guarantees. The Notes and the guarantees
will be effectively subordinated to all of T-Mobile USAs and the
Guarantors existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent
of the assets securing such indebtedness, and will be
structurally subordinated to all of the liabilities and preferred
stock of any of T-Mobile USAs subsidiaries that do not guarantee
the Notes.

If T-Mobile USA experiences specific kinds of changes of control
as set forth in the Indentures and any such change of control is
accompanied or followed by rating downgrades during a specified
period of time after the change of control, each holder of the
2021 Notes or 2024 Notes, as applicable, may require T-Mobile USA
to repurchase all or a portion of the 2021 Notes or 2024 Notes,
as applicable, so held at a price equal to 101% of the principal
amount of such Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the
Notes repurchased to, but not including, the date of repurchase.

The Indentures contain covenants that, among other things,
restrict the ability of T-Mobile USA and its restricted
subsidiaries to incur more debt, pay dividends and make
distributions, make certain investments, repurchase stock, create
liens or other encumbrances, enter into transactions with
affiliates, enter into agreements that restrict dividends or
distributions from subsidiaries, and merge, consolidate or sell,
or otherwise dispose of, substantially all of their assets. These
limitations are subject to a number of important qualifications
and exceptions.

Each Indenture contains customary Events of Default (as defined
in each Indenture), including:

default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest
(including Additional Interest (as defined in each
Indenture)) on the Notes of the applicable series;
default in the payment when due (at maturity, upon redemption
or otherwise) of the principal of, or premium, if any, on,
the Notes of the applicable series;
failure by T-Mobile USA to comply with its other obligations
under the Indentures, in certain cases subject to notice and
grace periods;
payment defaults and accelerations with respect to other
indebtedness of T-Mobile USA and certain of its restricted
subsidiaries in the aggregate principal amount of $100.0
million or more;
specified events involving bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization of T-Mobile USA or certain of its restricted
subsidiaries; and
failure by T-Mobile USA or certain of its restricted
subsidiaries to pay certain final judgments aggregating in
excess of $100.0 million within 60 days of such final
judgment.

Upon an Event of Default, the trustee or the holders of at least
25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of the applicable
series then outstanding may declare all the Notes of such series
to be due and payable immediately. In the case of Events of
Default relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, all
outstanding Notes of the applicable series will become due and
payable immediately without further action or notice.

The Notes were issued to DT without being registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), in
reliance upon an exemption therefrom. The Company or T-Mobile USA
will not be required to file a registration statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) providing for the
registration under the Securities Act of the Notes prior to the
