ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT

This document is in two parts. The first part is this prospectus supplement, which describes the specific terms of this offering of the Notes and also adds to and updates information contained in the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. The second part is the accompanying prospectus, which gives more general information. Generally, when we refer to this prospectus, we are referring to both parts of this document combined. To the extent there is a conflict between the information contained in the accompanying prospectus and this prospectus supplement, you should rely on the information in this prospectus supplement; provided that if any statement in one of these documents is inconsistent with a statement in another document having a later date—for example, a document incorporated by reference in the accompanying prospectus or this prospectus supplement—the statement in the document having the later date modifies or supersedes the earlier statement.

As permitted by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the registration statement of which the accompanying prospectus forms a part includes additional information not contained in this prospectus supplement. You may read the registration statement and the other reports we file with the SEC at the SEC’s website described below under the heading “Where You Can Find More Information.”

You should read this prospectus supplement along with the accompanying prospectus, any related free writing prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference carefully before you decide whether to invest. These documents contain important information you should consider when making your investment decision. This prospectus supplement contains information about the securities offered in this offering and may add, update or change information in the accompanying prospectus.

In this prospectus supplement, unless stated otherwise or the context indicates otherwise, references to “T-Mobile,” the “Company,” “our Company,” “we,” “our,” “ours” and “us” refer to T-Mobile US, Inc. together with its direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries, including T-Mobile USA and its subsidiaries and, on and after April 1, 2020, Sprint Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Sprint”) and its subsidiaries. References to “T-Mobile USA” and the “Issuer” refer to T-Mobile USA, Inc. only. T-Mobile USA’s corporate parent is T-Mobile US, Inc., which we refer to in this prospectus supplement on a stand-alone basis as “T-Mobile US” or “Parent.” T-Mobile US has no operations separate from its investment in T-Mobile USA. Accordingly, unless otherwise noted, all of the business and financial information in this prospectus supplement, including the factors identified under “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-17, is presented on a consolidated basis for T-Mobile.

Combination of T-Mobile and Sprint

On April 1, 2020, T-Mobile US completed a merger transaction with Sprint, a communications company offering a comprehensive range of wireless and wireline communications products and services. As a combined company, we expect to be able to enhance the breadth and depth of our nationwide 5G network, accelerate innovation, increase competition in the U.S. wireless, video and broadband industries and achieve significant synergies and cost reductions by eliminating redundancies within the combined network as well as other business processes and operations. Among the expected synergies are reduction in redundant cell sites from combining networks, back office and information technology efficiencies and the evolution of our distribution and retail footprint including the combination of the Sprint and T-Mobile brand operations, which unified under the T-Mobile brand nationwide on August 2, 2020.

Our Company

We are the Un-carrier. Through our Un-carrier strategy, we have disrupted the wireless communications services industry by actively engaging with and listening to our customers and eliminating their existing pain points, including providing them with added value, an exceptional experience and implementing signature Un-carrier initiatives that have changed the wireless industry. We ended annual service contracts, overages, unpredictable international roaming fees, data buckets and much more. We are inspired by a relentless customer experience focus, consistently leading the wireless industry in customer care by delivering an excellent customer experience with our “Team of Experts,” which drives our record-high customer satisfaction levels while enabling operational efficiencies. We will continue to maintain our customer experience focus and are determined to bring the Un-carrier to every potential customer in the United States.

Our network is the foundation of our success. Everything we do is powered by our nationwide 4G Long-Term Evolution (“LTE”) network and our transformative nationwide 5G network. As of September 30, 2020, our 4G LTE network covered 327 million Americans (99% of the U.S. population) and our nationwide 5G network covered 270 million people. We continue to expand the footprint and improve the quality of our network, providing outstanding wireless experiences for customers who will not have to compromise on quality and value. Going forward, our network will allow us to deliver new, innovative products and services with the same customer experience focus and industry-disrupting mentality that has redefined the wireless communications services industry in the United States in the customers’ favor.

We provide wireless services to 100.4 million postpaid and prepaid customers as of September 30, 2020, and generate revenue by providing affordable wireless communication services to these customers, as well as a wide selection of wireless devices and accessories.

Certain subsidiaries of the Issuer will not provide guarantees of the Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes and the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes (such as certain designated special purpose entities, a reinsurance subsidiary and immaterial subsidiaries). See “Description of Notes—Brief Description of the Notes and the Note Guarantees—The Note Guarantees.” Assuming that on September 30, 2020, we had completed the Q4 Prepayment (as defined under “—Recent Developments—Notes Issuances”) and the Q4 Notes Issuances (as defined under “—Recent Developments—Notes Issuances”) and the issuance of the Notes and all the Guarantees were in place, subsidiaries that will not provide guarantees of the Notes that were included in Parent’s consolidated financial statements as of such date had approximately $10.2 billion of total assets and approximately $7.0 billion in indebtedness and Tower Obligations (as defined under “Description of Other Indebtedness and Certain Financing Transactions—Existing T-Mobile Tower Transactions”) outstanding.

Recent Developments

Prepayment

On October 9, 2020, the Issuer prepaid in full the $4.0 billion of term loans outstanding, together with accrued and unpaid interest, under the Credit Agreement (the “Q4 Prepayment”).

Ranking

The Notes:

•
will be general unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer;

•
will be senior in right of payment to any future indebtedness of the Issuer to the extent that such future indebtedness provides by its terms that it is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes;

•
will rank equal in right of payment with any of the Issuer’s existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities that are not by their terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes, including, without limitation, the obligations under the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes, the Existing Sprint Unsecured Notes, the Credit Agreement and the Tower Obligations;

•
will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future secured indebtedness of the Issuer, including, without limitation, obligations under the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes and the Credit Agreement, in each case to the extent of the value of the Issuer’s assets securing such indebtedness;

•
will be structurally subordinated to all of the liabilities and other obligations of the Issuer’s subsidiaries that are not obligors

S-4

with respect to the Notes, including the Existing Sprint Spectrum-Backed Notes, factoring arrangements and Tower Obligations; and

•
will be unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Parent and the Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined under “Description of Notes—Certain Definitions”).

See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to this Offering and the Notes—The Notes and the Guarantees will be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of the Issuer’s non-guarantor subsidiaries.”

Assuming that on September 30, 2020, we had completed the Q4 Prepayment and the Q4 Notes Issuances, and also completed this offering, we would have had approximately $80.0 billion of outstanding indebtedness and other obligations, excluding letter of credit obligations, including $36.6 billion of effectively senior outstanding secured indebtedness and $38.9 billion of pari passu outstanding unsecured indebtedness. Our effectively senior, secured indebtedness would consist of $31.8 billion of Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes and an aggregate principal amount of $4.8 billion of Existing Sprint Spectrum-Backed Notes outstanding, with up to $2.2 billion remaining available for issuance, under the Sprint Spectrum Note Facility (as defined under “Description of Other Indebtedness and Certain Financing Transactions—Existing Sprint Spectrum Note Facility”). Our pari passu unsecured indebtedness would consist of $3.0 billion of Notes offered hereby, $13.1 billion of Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes, $19.8 billion of Existing Sprint Unsecured Notes and approximately $3.1 billion in unsecured Tower Obligations. We also would have had $5.5 billion of revolving borrowings available on an effectively senior, secured basis under the Credit Agreement.

Note Guarantees

The Notes will be guaranteed by (x) Parent and any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer that is not an Excluded Subsidiary and either (i) is or becomes an obligor of the Credit Agreement or (ii) issues or guarantees certain capital markets debt securities, and (y) any future direct or indirect subsidiary of Parent or any subsidiary thereof that owns capital stock of the Issuer. See “Description of Notes—Brief Description of the Notes and the Note Guarantees—The Note Guarantees.” Each Guarantee of the Notes by a guarantor:

•
will be a general unsecured, unsubordinated obligation of such guarantor;

S-5

•
will be senior in right of payment to any future indebtedness of that guarantor to the extent that such future indebtedness provides by its terms that it is subordinated in right of payment to such guarantor’s Guarantee;

•
will be equal in right of payment with any of that guarantor’s existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities that are not by their terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes, including, without limitation, obligations under the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes, the Existing Sprint Unsecured Notes and the Credit Agreement;

•
will be effectively subordinated to any Subsidiary Guarantor’s existing and future secured indebtedness, including, without limitation, obligations under the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes and the Credit Agreement, in each case to the extent of the value of the assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor securing such Indebtedness (as defined under “Description of Notes—Certain Definitions”); and

•
will be structurally subordinated to all of the indebtedness and other obligations of any subsidiaries of that guarantor that are not obligors with respect to the Notes.

See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to this Offering and the Notes—The Notes and the Guarantees will be unsecured and effectively subordinated to the Issuer’s and the guarantors’ existing and future secured indebtedness, including the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes and borrowings under the Credit Agreement” and “Risk Factors—Risks Related to this Offering and the Notes—The Notes and the Guarantees will be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of the Issuer’s non-guarantor subsidiaries.”

Assuming that on September 30, 2020, we had completed the Q4 Prepayment and the Q4 Notes Issuances and all the Guarantees were in place, subsidiaries that will not provide guarantees of the Notes that were included in Parent’s consolidated financial statements as of such date had approximately $10.2 billion of total assets and approximately $7.0 billion in indebtedness and Tower Obligations outstanding.

If Parent has achieved an investment grade corporate rating and the Notes would have an investment grade rating after giving effect to the proposed release of the subsidiary guarantees from two of the

S-6

following: Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. and Fitch Ratings, Inc. and certain other conditions are met, the Issuer may elect to have the subsidiary guarantees permanently released. There can be no assurance that Parent or the Notes will ever have investment grade ratings, or that, if they do, Parent or the Notes will maintain these ratings. See “Description of Notes—Brief Description of the Notes and the Note Guarantees—The Note Guarantees.”

Certain Covenants

The indentures governing the Notes will contain covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of the Issuer 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;

•
merge, consolidate or sell, or otherwise dispose of, substantially all of their assets; and

•
grant a subsidiary guarantee of debt incurred under the Credit Agreement or certain capital markets debt without also providing a guarantee of the Notes.

These covenants will be subject to a number of important limitations and exceptions that are described later in this prospectus supplement under the caption “Description of Notes—Certain Covenants.” If the Notes are assigned an investment grade rating by at least two of Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC (“S&P”), Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”) and no default has occurred or is continuing, certain covenants will cease to apply and will not be later reinstated even if the rating of the notes should subsequently decline, and the Issuer may elect to have other covenants permanently changed. There can be no assurance that Parent or the Notes will ever have investment grade ratings, or that, if they do, Parent or the Notes will maintain these ratings. See “Description of Notes—Certain Covenants—Changes in Covenants When Notes Rated Investment Grade.”

Asset Sale Proceeds

If the Issuer or its restricted subsidiaries engage in certain types of asset sales, the Issuer generally must use the net cash proceeds from the sale either to make

S-7

investments in its business (through capital expenditures, acquisitions or otherwise) or to repay permanently debt under credit facilities, including borrowings under the Credit Agreement, or secured by assets sold within a certain period of time after such sale or, prepay other senior debt and the notes on a pro rata basis or prepay debt of a non-guarantor restricted subsidiary (if the assets sold were the assets of a non-guarantor restricted subsidiary); otherwise the Issuer must make an offer to purchase, on a pro rata basis, a principal amount of the notes and other pari passu indebtedness equal to the excess net cash proceeds. The purchase price of the notes would be 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the repurchase date. See “Description of Notes—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Asset Sales.”

Change of Control Triggering Event

If the Issuer experiences a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined under “Description of Notes—Certain Definitions”), the Issuer must make an offer to each holder to repurchase the Notes at a price in cash equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the purchase date. See “Description of Notes—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Change of Control Triggering Event.”

Use of Proceeds

We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, which may include among other things, financing acquisitions of additional spectrum and refinancing existing indebtedness on an ongoing basis.

Listing

The Issuer does not intend to apply for the Notes to be listed on any securities exchange or to arrange for the Notes to be quoted on any quotation system.

Denominations

The Notes will be issued in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Absence of Public Market for the Notes

The 2026 Notes, the 2029 Notes and the 2031 Notes will each be a new class of security and there is currently no established trading market for such Notes. The underwriters have advised us that certain underwriters intend to make a market in the Notes. However, they are not obligated to do so and they may discontinue any market making at any time in their sole discretion. As a result, a liquid market for the Notes may not be available if you wish to sell your Notes.

Trustee

The Trustee for the Notes will be Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas.

S-8

Governing Law

The Notes, the indentures governing the Notes and the Guarantees will be governed by the laws of the State of New York.

Risk Factors

You should consider carefully all of the information set forth in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, any related free writing prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein and, in particular, you should carefully evaluate the specific factors under “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-17 of this prospectus supplement and those risk factors incorporated by reference herein.

Summary Historical Financial and Operating Data of T-Mobile

The following table sets forth summary consolidated financial and operating data for T-Mobile. The summary consolidated financial data has been derived from T-Mobile’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 and for the three years ended December 31, 2019 contained in Parent’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 6, 2020, and Parent’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 contained in Parent’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on November 5, 2020. The summary consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2017 is derived from T-Mobile’s audited consolidated financial statements which are not included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement. T-Mobile’s unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as T-Mobile’s audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of our management, reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal, recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for those periods. The results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year. The summary financial data should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements described above and the related notes. The summary operating data is not derived from the audited consolidated financial statements.

T-Mobile’s historical financial data may not be indicative of the results of operations or financial position to be expected in the future. In particular, on January 1, 2020, T-Mobile adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” which requires a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectibility of the reported amount. T-Mobile adopted the new credit loss standard on January 1, 2020 by recognizing a cumulative effect of initially applying the new credit loss standard on its receivables portfolio. Additionally, on January 1, 2019, T-Mobile adopted ASU 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)”, which requires most lessees to report a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. T-Mobile adopted the new lease standard on January 1, 2019 by recognizing and measuring leases at the adoption date with a cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application. Comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the standards in effect for those periods. Lastly, on January 1, 2018, T-Mobile adopted ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” which requires entities to recognize revenue through the application of a five-step model, which includes: identification of the contract; identification of the performance obligations; determination of the transaction price; allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and recognition of revenue as the entity satisfies the performance obligations. T-Mobile adopted the new revenue standard on January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective method with the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application. Comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the standards in effect for those periods.

Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest expense, net of interest income, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock-based compensation and certain income and expenses not reflective of T-Mobile’s ongoing operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure utilized by T-Mobile’s management to monitor the financial performance of T-Mobile’s operations. T-Mobile uses Adjusted EBITDA internally as a measure to evaluate and compensate personnel and management for their performance, and as a benchmark to evaluate operating performance in comparison to competitors. Management believes analysts and investors use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to evaluate overall operating performance and facilitate comparisons with other wireless communications companies because it is indicative of T-Mobile’s ongoing operating performance and trends by excluding the impact of interest expense from financing, non-cash depreciation and amortization from capital investments, non-cash stock-based compensation, network decommissioning costs, costs related to the Merger, incremental costs directly attributable to COVID-19 and impairment expense, as they are not indicative of T-Mobile’s ongoing operating performance as well as certain other nonrecurring income and expenses. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for income from operations, net income or any other measure of financial performance reported in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”).

The following table illustrates the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA and reconciles Adjusted EBITDA to Net income, which T-Mobile considers to be the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

(a)
Following the prepaid transaction, starting on July 1, 2020, we provide Mobile Virtual Network Operator (“MVNO”) services to customers of the divested brands. We have included the operating income from discontinued operations from April 1, 2020 through June 30, 2020, in our determination of Adjusted EBITDA to reflect contributions of the prepaid business that will be replaced by the Master Network Services Agreement (the “MVNO Agreement”) beginning on July 1, 2020 in order to enable management, analysts and investors to better assess ongoing operating performance and trends.

(b)
Stock-based compensation includes payroll tax impacts and may not agree to stock-based compensation expense in T-Mobile’s consolidated financial statements incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement. Additionally, certain stock-based compensation expenses associated with the Transactions have been included in Merger-related costs.

(c)
Supplemental employee payroll, third-party commissions and cleaning-related COVID-19 costs were not significant for the three months ended September 30, 2020.

(d)
Other, net may not agree to T-Mobile’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement primarily due to certain non-routine operating activities, such as other special items that would not be expected to reoccur or are not reflective of T-Mobile’s ongoing operating performance, and are therefore excluded in Adjusted EBITDA.

(4)
Net income margin represents net income divided by service revenues.

(5)
Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by service revenues.

(6)
Churn represents the number of customers whose service was disconnected as a percentage of the average number of customers during the specified period. The number of customers whose service was disconnected is presented net of customers that subsequently have their service restored within a certain period of time. T-Mobile believes that churn provides management, investors and analysts with useful information to evaluate customer retention and loyalty.

(7)
Average Revenue Per User (“ARPU”) represents the average monthly service revenue earned from customers. T-Mobile believes ARPU provides management, investors and analysts with useful information to assess and evaluate service revenue per customer and assist in forecasting future service revenues generated from the customer base. Postpaid phone ARPU excludes postpaid other customers and related revenues which includes wearables, DIGITS and connected devices such as tablets and SyncUp products.

On July 18, 2019, T-Mobile entered into an agreement whereby certain T-Mobile prepaid products will be offered and distributed by a current MVNO partner. As a result, T-Mobile included a base adjustment in the third quarter of 2019 to reduce prepaid customers by 616,000.

(9)
Average Revenue Per Account (“ARPA”) represents the average monthly postpaid service revenue earned per account. T-Mobile believes Postpaid ARPA provides management, investors and analysts with useful information to assess and evaluate postpaid service revenue realization and assist in forecasting future post-paid service revenues on a per account basis. T-Mobile considers Postpaid ARPA to be indicative of revenue growth potential given the increase in the average number of postpaid phone customers per account and increases in postpaid other customers, including wearables, DIGITS or other connected devices which includes tablets and SyncUp products.

The following tables illustrate the calculation of T-Mobile’s operating measure Postpaid ARPA and reconciles this measure to the related service revenues.

Performance Measures

In managing T-Mobile’s business and assessing financial performance, T-Mobile supplements the information provided by the financial statements with other operating or statistical data and non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, Postpaid Phone Churn, Prepaid Churn, Postpaid Phone ARPU, Prepaid ARPU and Postpaid ARPA as disclosed above. These operating and financial measures are utilized by T-Mobile’s management to evaluate operating performance and, in certain cases, ability to meet liquidity requirements. Although companies in the wireless industry may not define each of these measures in precisely the same way, T-Mobile believes that these measures facilitate comparisons with other companies in the wireless industry on key operating and financial measures.

Summary Historical Financial Data of Sprint

The following table sets forth summary consolidated financial data for Sprint. The summary consolidated financial data has been derived from Sprint’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the three years ended March 31, 2020 contained in Exhibit 99.1 to Parent’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 18, 2020. The summary financial data should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements described above and the related notes. The summary operating data is not derived from the audited or unaudited consolidated financial statements.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). The Tax Act included changes in tax laws that had a material impact on Sprint’s financial statements. During the year ended March 31, 2018, Sprint recorded a $7.1 billion non-cash tax benefit through net income (loss) to re-measure the carrying values of deferred tax assets and liabilities. The re-measurement of deferred taxes had no impact on cash flows. See Note 12—Income Taxes in Notes to Sprint’s Consolidated Financial Statements filed as Exhibit 99.1 to Parent’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 18, 2020 for additional information.

On April 1, 2018, Sprint adopted authoritative guidance regarding Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Sprint adopted this standard using the modified retrospective method, which requires that the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard be recognized at the date of application beginning April 1, 2018. Sprint recorded a pre-tax cumulative effect of $1.7 billion ($1.3 billion, net of tax) as a reduction to the April 1, 2018 opening balance of accumulated deficit.

On April 1, 2019, Sprint adopted ASU 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” using the modified retrospective transition method. Results for reporting periods beginning after April 1, 2019 are presented under Topic 842, while amounts reported under prior periods have not been adjusted and continue to be reported under accounting standards in effect for those periods. See Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Other Information and Note 7—Leases in Notes to Sprint’s Consolidated Financial Statements filed as Exhibit 99.1 to Parent’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 18, 2020 for additional information related to the adoption of this standard.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in the Notes involves a high degree of risk. Prior to making a decision about investing in the Notes, you should carefully consider the following risks and uncertainties, as well as those discussed under the caption “Risk Factors” in Parent’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020 filed with the SEC on May 6, 2020, August 6, 2020 (as amended by Amendment No. 1 to such Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on August 10, 2020) and November 5, 2020, respectively. If any of the risks described in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus or any related free writing prospectus, or the risks described in any documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus or any related free writing prospectus, actually occur, our business, prospects, financial condition or operating results could be harmed. In such case, the trading price of the Notes could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to this Offering and the Notes

Our actual financial position and results of operations may differ materially from the unaudited pro forma financial information incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement.

The pro forma financial information incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement is presented for illustrative purposes only and may not be an accurate indication of what results of operations would have been had the BCA Transactions been completed on the dates assumed. The pro forma financial information has been derived from the audited and unaudited historical financial statements of T-Mobile and Sprint, and certain adjustments and assumptions have been made regarding T-Mobile after giving effect to the Transactions. The pro forma financial statements do not include, among other things, estimated cost or growth synergies, adjustments related to restructuring or integration activities, future acquisitions or disposals not yet known or probable, including those that may be required by regulatory or governmental authorities in connection with the BCA Transactions, impacts of merger-related change in control provisions that are currently not factually supportable and/or probable of occurring, or the issuance of the Notes. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities of Sprint was based on the estimate of fair value. For the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, we used the cost, income and market approaches, including market participant assumptions. The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that T-Mobile believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from the assumptions within the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. The purchase adjustments relating to the Sprint and T-Mobile combined financial information are preliminary and subject to change as additional analyses are performed and finalized.

In addition, the assumptions used in preparing the pro forma financial information may not prove to be accurate. Such assumptions can be adversely affected by known or unknown facts, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. Other factors may also affect our financial condition or results of operations. In view of these uncertainties, the inclusion and incorporation by reference of pro forma financial information in this prospectus supplement is for illustrative purposes and does not purport to project the future consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial condition for any future period or as of any future date. See the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and related notes filed as Exhibit 99.1 to Parent’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on September 18, 2020.

Our significant indebtedness could adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results, and senior creditors would have a secured claim to any collateral securing the debt owed to them.

We have, and we expect that we will continue to have, a significant amount of debt. Assuming that on September 30, 2020, we had completed the Q4 Prepayment and the Q4 Notes Issuances, and also completed this offering, we would have had approximately $80.0 billion of outstanding indebtedness and other obligations, excluding letter of credit obligations, including $36.6 billion of effectively senior outstanding secured indebtedness and $38.9 billion of pari passu outstanding unsecured indebtedness. Our effectively senior, secured indebtedness would consist of $31.8 billion of Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes and an aggregate principal amount of $4.8 billion of Existing Sprint Spectrum-Backed Notes outstanding, with up to $2.2 billion remaining available for issuance, under the Sprint Spectrum Note Facility. Our pari passu unsecured indebtedness would consist of $3.0 billion of Notes offered hereby, $13.1 billion of Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes, $19.8 billion

S-17

of Existing Sprint Unsecured Notes, and approximately $3.1 billion in unsecured Tower Obligations. We also would have had $5.5 billion of revolving borrowings available on an effectively senior secured basis under the Credit Agreement.

Our ability to make payments on our debt, to repay our indebtedness when due and to fund our capital intensive business and operations and significant planned capital expenditures will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future. There can be no assurance that sufficient funds will be available to us under our borrowings or otherwise. Our ability to produce cash from operations is subject to a number of risks, including:

• introduction of new products and services by us or our competitors or changes in service plans or pricing by us or our competitors;

• customers’ acceptance of our service offerings;

• our ability to control our costs and maintain our current cost structure; and

• our ability to continue to grow our customer base and maintain projected levels of churn.

Our debt service obligations could have important material consequences to you, including the following:

• limiting our ability to borrow money or sell stock to fund working capital, capital expenditures, debt service requirements, acquisitions, technological initiatives and other general corporate purposes;

• making it more difficult for us to make payments on indebtedness and satisfy obligations under the Notes;

• increasing our vulnerability to general economic downturns, including as a result of pandemics and other macroeconomic conditions, and industry conditions and limiting our ability to withstand competitive pressure;

• limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business or the communications industry or pursuing growth opportunities;

• limiting our ability to increase our capital expenditures to roll out new services or to upgrade our networks to new technologies, such as LTE and 5G;

• limiting our ability to purchase additional spectrum, expand existing service areas or develop new metropolitan areas in the future;

• reducing the amount of cash available for working capital needs, capital expenditures for existing and new markets and other corporate purposes by requiring us to dedicate a substantial portion of cash flow from operations to the payment of principal of, and interest on, indebtedness; and

• placing us at a competitive disadvantage to competitors who are less leveraged than we are.

Any of these risks could impair our ability to fund our operations or limit our ability to obtain additional spectrum, or expand our business as planned, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. Any such risks could also have an adverse effect on the trading prices of the Notes.

To the extent we become party to any hedging arrangements, we may be exposed to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to such hedging agreements. The primary credit exposure that we have with respect to such hedging agreements is that a counterparty will default on payments due, which could result in us having to acquire a replacement derivative from a different counterparty at a higher cost or we may be unable to find a suitable replacement. Although counterparties to any hedging agreements may be major financial institutions we would still be exposed to credit risk with these institutions. In addition, any netting and/or set off rights we may have through master netting arrangements with these counterparties may not apply to affiliates of a counterparty with whom we may have various other financial arrangements. If any financial institutions that are parties to any hedging agreements with us were to default on their payment obligations to us, declare bankruptcy or become insolvent, we may be unhedged against the underlying exposures. Any of these risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. Additionally,

S-18

if the counterparties’ and our obligations under any hedging agreements are required to be secured by cash or U.S. Treasury securities, any posting of collateral by us under such arrangements would negatively impact our liquidity. The modification or termination of any such hedging agreements could also negatively impact our liquidity or other financial metrics.

Some of our debt also has a floating rate of interest linked to various indices. If changes in the indices result in interest rate increases, debt service requirements will increase, which could adversely affect our cash flow and operating results.

In addition, any agreements we have and may continue to enter into to limit our exposure to interest rate increases may not offer complete protection from this risk, and any portion of our indebtedness not subject to such agreements would have full exposure to interest rate increases.

Any of these risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

Even with our current levels of indebtedness, we may incur additional indebtedness. This could further exacerbate the risks associated with our leverage.

Although we have substantial indebtedness, we may still be able to incur significantly more debt, including more secured debt, as market conditions and contractual obligations permit, which could further reduce the cash available to us to invest in operations, as a result of increased debt service obligations. The terms of the agreements governing our long-term indebtedness allow for the incurrence of additional indebtedness by us and our subsidiaries, subject to specified limitations. In particular, as of December 31, 2020, we had $5.5 billion available for borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility (as defined under “Description of Other Indebtedness and Certain Financing Transactions—Credit Agreement”). There can be no assurance that sufficient funds will be available to us under our existing indebtedness or otherwise. The more leveraged we become, the more we, and in turn the holders of our securities, become exposed to the risks described above in the risk factor entitled “Our significant indebtedness could adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results, and senior creditors would have a secured claim to any collateral securing the debt owed to them.”

The Notes and the Guarantees will be unsecured and effectively subordinated to the Issuer’s and the guarantors’ existing and future secured indebtedness, including the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes and borrowings under the Credit Agreement.

The Notes and the Guarantees will be general unsecured, unsubordinated obligations ranking effectively junior in right of payment to all existing and future secured debt of Parent, the Issuer and of each Subsidiary Guarantor, including the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes and borrowings under the Credit Agreement, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such debt. The Notes also will permit us to incur certain additional secured debt.

If the Issuer or a guarantor is declared bankrupt, becomes insolvent or is liquidated or reorganized, any secured debt of the Issuer or that guarantor, including under the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes and the Credit Agreement, will be entitled to be paid in full from the assets of the Issuer or guarantor, as applicable, securing that debt before any payment may be made with respect to Notes or the Guarantees of such guarantor.

Holders of the Notes will participate ratably in any remaining assets with all other holders of the Issuer’s and the guarantors’ unsecured obligations that are not by their terms subordinated to the Notes, based upon the respective amounts owed. In any of the foregoing events, there may not be sufficient assets to pay the indebtedness and other obligations owed to secured creditors and the amounts due on the Notes. As a result, holders of the Notes would likely receive less, ratably, than holders of secured obligations of the Issuer and the guarantors. It is possible that with respect to the Guarantees, there will be no assets from which claims of holders of the Notes can be satisfied.

The Notes and the Guarantees will be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of the Issuer’s non-guarantor subsidiaries.

The Notes and the Guarantees will be structurally subordinated to any existing or future liabilities and other obligations of the Issuer’s or the guarantors’ non-guarantor subsidiaries, including the Existing Sprint Spectrum-Backed Notes, factoring arrangements and tower obligations. Accordingly, creditors of current and

S-19

future subsidiaries of the Issuer or the guarantors that are not obligors with respect to the Notes would have claims with respect to the assets of those subsidiaries that would rank structurally senior to the Notes and the Guarantees. In the event of any distribution or payment of assets of such subsidiaries in any dissolution, winding up, liquidation, reorganization or other bankruptcy proceeding, the claims of those creditors would have to be satisfied prior to making any such distribution or payment to the Issuer or the applicable guarantor in respect of direct or indirect equity interests in such subsidiaries. Certain subsidiaries of the Issuer that are prohibited from providing guarantees of the Notes (such as special purpose finance entities and a reinsurance subsidiary), as well as non-wholly owned and immaterial subsidiaries will not provide guarantees of the Notes. Assuming that on September 30, 2020, we had completed the Q4 Prepayment and the Q4 Notes Issuances and all the Guarantees were in place, subsidiaries that will not provide guarantees of the Notes that were included in Parent’s consolidated financial statements as of such date had approximately $10.2 billion of total assets and approximately $7.0 billion in indebtedness and Tower Obligations outstanding. See “Description of Notes—Brief Description of the Notes and the Note Guarantees—The Note Guarantees.”

In order to service our debt, we will require a significant amount of cash, which may not be available to us on attractive terms or at all.

Our ability to meet existing or future debt obligations and to reduce indebtedness will depend on future performance and the other cash requirements of our businesses. Our performance, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic conditions and financial, competitive, business, political, regulatory and other factors, including third party rating agency assessments, that are beyond our control. In addition, our ability to borrow funds in the future to make payments on debt will depend on the satisfaction of covenants in the indentures governing the Notes and the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes and the Existing Sprint Unsecured Notes, the Credit Agreement, other debt agreements and other agreements we may enter into in the future. Specifically, under the Revolving Credit Facility under our Credit Agreement, we will need to maintain certain financial ratios on a quarterly basis. We cannot assure you that we will continue to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future equity issuances or borrowings will be available to us in an amount sufficient to enable us to satisfy financial covenants under the Credit Agreement, service our debt or repay our indebtedness in a timely manner or on favorable or commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If we are unable to satisfy financial covenants or to generate sufficient cash to timely repay our debt, our lenders could accelerate the maturity of some or all of our outstanding indebtedness. As a result, we may need to refinance all or a portion of our remaining existing indebtedness prior to its maturity. We also expect to need to refinance certain indebtedness. Disruptions in the financial markets, unfavorable rating agency assessments, the general amount of debt being refinanced at the same time, and our financial position and performance could make it more difficult to obtain debt or equity financing on favorable or commercially reasonable terms or at all. In addition, instability in the global financial markets has from time to time resulted in volatility in the capital markets. This volatility could limit our access to the credit markets, leading to higher borrowing costs or, in some cases, the inability to obtain financing on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all. Any such failure to obtain additional financing could jeopardize our ability to repay, refinance or reduce debt obligations. If we were able to obtain funds, it may not be on terms and conditions acceptable to us, which could limit or preclude our ability to pursue new opportunities, expand our service, upgrade our networks, engage in acquisitions or purchase additional spectrum, thus limiting our ability to expand our business, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

Further, should we need to raise additional capital, the foreign ownership restrictions mandated by the FCC, and applicable to us, could limit our ability to attract additional equity financing outside the United States.

Upon certain events including a change of control triggering event, we may be required to offer to repurchase all of the Notes, all of the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes, all of the Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes, all of the Existing Sprint Spectrum-Backed Notes and certain of the Existing Sprint Unsecured Notes and to repay amounts owing under the Credit Agreement, and we may not be able to finance such a repurchase or repayment. Not all significant transactions would constitute a change of control triggering event.

We have in the past been the subject of inquiries or offers related to potential strategic transactions (such as an acquisition of the Company), we may be the subject of such inquires or offers in the future, and we may engage in discussions or negotiations regarding such inquiries or offers that may ultimately lead to a transaction. The indentures governing the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes, the Existing Sprint Spectrum-Backed Notes and certain of the Existing Sprint Unsecured Notes, provide, and the

S-20

indentures governing the Notes will provide, that, upon the occurrence of certain change of control triggering events, which change of control triggering events include a change of control combined with certain ratings downgrades or withdrawals as described further below, the Issuer will be required to offer to repurchase all outstanding Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes, Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes, all outstanding Existing Sprint Spectrum-Backed Notes, the applicable Existing Sprint Unsecured Notes and all outstanding Notes at 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of repurchase. See “Description of Notes—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Change of Control Triggering Event” and “Description of Other Indebtedness and Certain Financing Transactions.” In addition, any such change of control triggering event is expected to cause an event of default under the Credit Agreement, entitling the lenders to declare all amounts outstanding thereunder to be immediately due and payable. Such a change of control would also trigger repayments with respect to our securitization transactions and capital leases. We may not have access to sufficient funds at the time of the change of control triggering event to make the required repurchases of the Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes, the Existing Sprint Spectrum-Backed Notes and the applicable Existing Sprint Unsecured Notes and to repay outstanding amounts under the Credit Agreement, or contractual restrictions may not allow such repurchases or repayments.

Not all change of control transactions would trigger these repurchase or repayment obligations. Specifically, these repurchase or repayment obligations would not be triggered unless both (i) such a transaction constitutes a “Change of Control” under the applicable indenture or credit agreement and (ii) such “Change of Control” is accompanied or followed by certain downgrades or withdrawals of the credit rating with respect to the applicable notes (in the case of any such indenture) or T-Mobile USA (in the case of the Credit Agreement). In the event that we undergo a significant corporate transaction that does not constitute a change of control triggering event, the Notes and such other obligations generally would be permitted to remain outstanding in accordance with their terms.

The failure to purchase the Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes, the Existing Sprint Spectrum-Backed Notes or the applicable Existing Sprint Unsecured Notes, as required under the respective indentures, would result in defaults under such indentures in addition to any events of default under the Credit Agreement resulting from a change of control triggering event thereunder, any of which could have material adverse consequences for us and the holders of the Notes. Any such event of default would likely trigger an event of default on other outstanding or future indebtedness.

The indentures governing the Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes and the Existing Sprint Unsecured Notes, the Credit Agreement and other financing arrangements include or will include restrictive covenants that limit our operating flexibility.

The indentures governing the Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes and the Existing Sprint Unsecured Notes, the Credit Agreement and other financing arrangements, impose (or, in the case of the indentures governing the Notes, will impose) significant operating and financial restrictions on us. These restrictions, subject in certain cases to customary baskets, exceptions and incurrence-based ratio tests, limit our and our subsidiaries’ ability to engage in some transactions. In particular, the Credit Agreement and the indentures governing the Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes include, and the indentures governing the Notes will include, restrictions limiting our and our subsidiaries’ ability to:

• incur additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock;

• pay dividends, redeem capital stock or make other restricted payments or investments (although we are able to make significant restricted payments under the Credit Agreement and the indentures governing the Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes);

• sell or buy assets, properties or licenses including by participating in future FCC auctions of spectrum or private sales of spectrum;

• develop assets, properties or licenses that we have or in the future may procure;

• enter into transactions with affiliates; and

• place restrictions on the ability of subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments.

S-21

In addition, the indentures governing the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes and Existing Sprint Unsecured Notes and the Credit Agreement limit, and the indentures governing the Notes will limit, our and our subsidiaries’ ability to:

• create liens or other encumbrances in respect of indebtedness for borrowed money; and

• engage in mergers, business combinations or other transactions.

In addition, the Revolving Credit Facility (as defined under “Description of Other Indebtedness and Certain Financing Transactions—Credit Agreement”) contains a financial maintenance covenant, requiring us to maintain a total first lien net leverage ratio at the end of each fiscal quarter of 3.30:1.00 or less. Any future debt that we incur may contain financial maintenance covenants as well. These restrictions could limit our ability to obtain debt financing, repurchase stock, refinance or pay principal on our outstanding debt, complete acquisitions for cash or debt or react to changes in our operating environment or the economy.

Any failure to comply with the restrictions of the indentures governing the Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes or the Existing Sprint Unsecured Notes, the Credit Agreement or other financing agreements may result in an event of default under these agreements, which in turn may result in defaults or acceleration of obligations under these agreements and other agreements, giving our lenders and other debt holders the right to terminate any commitments they had made to provide us with further funds and to require us to repay all amounts then outstanding. Any of these events would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

The Guarantees may be released upon the occurrence of certain events.

The Guarantee of a guarantor will be automatically and unconditionally released in respect of the Notes of any series:

• only in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor, at such time as such Subsidiary Guarantor (i) is not, (ii) is released or relieved as, or (iii) ceases (or substantially concurrently will cease) to be, a borrower or guarantor under the Credit Agreement and under the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes, except by or as a result of payment under such guarantee or direct obligation;

• only in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor, in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Subsidiary Guarantor (including by way of merger or consolidation) to a person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, if the sale or other disposition is not prohibited by the “Asset Sale” provisions of the Indenture;

• only in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor, if for any reason such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer; provided, that any Subsidiary Guarantor that ceases to constitute a Subsidiary Guarantor or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary solely by virtue of no longer being a wholly-owned subsidiary (a “Partially Disposed Subsidiary”) shall only be released from its Guarantee to the extent that the other person taking an equity interest in such Partially Disposed Subsidiary is not an affiliate of the Issuer that is controlled by Parent, Deutsche Telekom or any of their respective subsidiaries or an employee of any of the foregoing;

• upon the legal defeasance, covenant defeasance, or satisfaction and discharge of the indentures governing the Notes as provided below under the captions “Description of Notes—Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance” and “Description of Notes—Satisfaction and Discharge”;

• upon the liquidation or dissolution of any Subsidiary Guarantor, provided that no event of default under the indentures governing the Notes has occurred that is continuing;

• upon the merger or consolidation of any guarantor with and into the Issuer or another guarantor that is the surviving person in such merger or consolidation;

• in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor, at the time of an Investment Grade Event Election (as defined in “Description of Notes—Certain Definitions”); or

• if the Issuer designates any restricted subsidiary that is a guarantor to be an unrestricted subsidiary in accordance with the applicable provisions of the indentures governing the Notes.

S-22

If any such Guarantee is released, no holder of the Notes will have a claim as a creditor against the applicable guarantor, and the indebtedness and other liabilities of such former Subsidiary Guarantor will be structurally senior to the claim of any holder of the Notes. See “Description of Notes—Brief Description of the Notes and the Note Guarantees—The Note Guarantees.”

The Guarantees may be avoidable and therefore not be enforceable because of fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer laws.

The Guarantees may be subject to review and potential avoidance under federal bankruptcy law or relevant state fraudulent conveyance laws if we or any guarantor file a petition for bankruptcy or our creditors file an involuntary petition for bankruptcy against us or any guarantor. Under these laws, if a court were to find that, at the time a guarantor incurred debt (including debt represented by the Guarantee), such guarantor:

• incurred this debt with the intent of hindering, delaying or defrauding current or future creditors; or

• received less than reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration for incurring this debt, and the guarantor:

• was insolvent or was rendered insolvent by reason of the related financing transactions (including the issuance of the Guarantees);

• was engaged in, or about to engage in, a business or transaction for which its remaining assets constituted unreasonably small capital to carry on its business as currently engaged in or contemplated; or

• intended to incur, or believed that it would incur, debts beyond its ability to pay these debts as they mature, as all of the foregoing terms are defined in or interpreted under the relevant fraudulent transfer or conveyance statutes;

then the court could avoid the Guarantee or subordinate the amounts owing under the Guarantee to the guarantor’s presently existing or future debt or take other actions detrimental to you. In the event of a finding that a fraudulent transfer or conveyance occurred, you may not receive any repayment on the relevant Guarantee (and, consequently, the Notes), or may receive only a partial repayment.

The measure of insolvency for purposes of the foregoing considerations will vary depending upon the law of the jurisdiction that is being applied in any such proceeding, such that we cannot be certain as to the standards a court would use to determine whether or not the Issuer or the guarantors were insolvent at the relevant time or, regardless of the insolvency standard applied by the court, that such court would not determine (i) that the Issuer or a guarantor were indeed insolvent on that date, (ii) that any payments to the holders of the Notes (including under the Guarantees) did not constitute preferences, fraudulent transfers or conveyances on other grounds or (iii) whether the Notes or any Guarantees would be subordinated to the Issuer’s or any of the guarantors’ other debt. Generally, however, an entity would be considered insolvent if, at the time it incurred the debt or issued the Guarantee:

• it could not pay its debts or contingent liabilities as they become due;

• the sum of its debts, including contingent liabilities, is greater than its assets, at a fair valuation; or

• the present fair saleable value of its assets is less than the amount required to pay the probable liability on its total existing debts and liabilities, including contingent liabilities, as they become absolute and mature.

As a general matter, value is given for a transfer or an obligation if, in exchange for the transfer or obligation, property is transferred or a valid antecedent debt is secured or satisfied. A court would likely find that a guarantor did not receive “reasonably equivalent value” (or fair consideration for) its Guarantee to the extent the guarantor did not obtain a reasonably equivalent benefit directly or indirectly from the issuance of the Notes. Thus, if the Guarantees were legally challenged, any Guarantee could be subject to the claim that, since the Guarantee was incurred for the benefit of the Issuer, and only indirectly for the benefit of the guarantor, the obligations of the applicable guarantor were incurred for less than “reasonably equivalent value” (or fair consideration). Therefore, if a court were to find that the applicable guarantor was insolvent or rendered insolvent

S-23

by the incurrence of the Guarantee or one of the other conditions above (relating to the guarantor’s financial condition) were satisfied, the court could avoid the obligations under the Guarantees, subordinate them to the applicable guarantor’s other debt or take other action detrimental to the holders of the Notes.

If a Guarantee is avoided as a fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, or preference, or found to be unenforceable for any other reason, you will not have a claim against that obligor and will only be our creditor or that of any guarantor whose obligation was not set aside or found to be unenforceable. In addition, the loss of a Guarantee generally will constitute an event of default under the indentures governing the Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes and the Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes and the Credit Agreement, which events of default would allow the relevant noteholders or lenders to accelerate the amounts due and payable thereunder, and we may not be able to pay any such amounts.

The indentures governing the Notes will contain a provision intended to limit each guarantor’s liability to the maximum amount that it could incur without causing the incurrence of obligations under its Guarantee to be a fraudulent transfer. This provision may not be effective (as a legal matter or otherwise) to protect the Guarantees from being avoided under fraudulent transfer law, or may eliminate the guarantor’s obligations or reduce the guarantor’s obligations to an amount that effectively makes the Guarantee worthless. In a Florida bankruptcy court decision (which was subsequently reversed by a district court on other grounds and then reinstated by the applicable circuit court of appeals), this kind of provision was found to be ineffective to protect the Guarantees.

In addition, any payment by us pursuant to the Notes or by a guarantor under a Guarantee made at a time we or such guarantor were found to be insolvent could be avoided as a preferential transfer under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and required to be returned to us or such guarantor or to a fund for the benefit of our or such guarantor’s creditors if such payment is made to an insider within a one-year period prior to a bankruptcy filing or within 90 days for any non-insider party, and such payment would give such insider or non-insider party more than such party would have received in a distribution under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in a hypothetical Chapter 7 case, subject to applicable defenses.

Finally, as a court of equity, the bankruptcy court may subordinate the claims in respect of the Notes or the Guarantees to other claims against us under the principle of equitable subordination if the court determines that (1) a holder of the Notes or the Guarantees engaged in some type of inequitable conduct, (2) the inequitable conduct resulted in injury to our other creditors or conferred an unfair advantage upon the holders of the Notes and (3) equitable subordination is not inconsistent with the provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

The lenders under the Credit Agreement have the discretion to release any guarantors under the Credit Agreement in a variety of circumstances, which could cause those guarantors to be released from their guarantees of each series of the Notes

For so long as any obligations under the Credit Agreement remain outstanding, any guarantee of the Notes may be released without action by, or consent of, any holder of the Notes, if the related guarantor is no longer a guarantor of obligations under the Credit Agreement or certain other indebtedness of the Issuer or any other guarantor (except, in each case, by or as a result of payment under such guarantee or direct obligation). See “Description of Notes—Brief Description of the Notes and the Note Guarantees—The Note Guarantees.” The lenders under the Credit Agreement will have the discretion to release the guarantees under the Credit Agreement in a variety of circumstances. You will not have a claim as a creditor against any entity that is no longer a guarantor of the Notes, and the indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, whether secured or unsecured, of former guarantor subsidiaries will be structurally senior to claims of holders of the Notes.

Many of the covenants in the indentures governing the Notes will not apply if the Notes are rated investment grade.

The indentures governing the Notes will provide that many of its covenants will cease to apply to us if the Notes are rated investment grade by at least two of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch, provided at such time no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing. The indentures will further provide that these covenants will not be later reinstated in the event that the ratings of the Notes subsequently decline. These covenants restrict, among other things, our ability to pay dividends, to incur debt and to enter into certain other transactions. There can be no assurance that the Notes will ever be rated investment grade. However, termination of these covenants would allow us to engage in certain transactions that would not be permitted while these covenants were in force. See

S-24

“Description of Notes—Certain Covenants—Changes in Covenants When Notes Rated Investment Grade.” Although the indentures will continue to restrict the Issuer’s ability to create liens or other encumbrances after the Notes are rated investment grade by at least two of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch, such covenant may be modified at the Issuer’s election, following such a rating event, to restrict only the Issuer and Material Subsidiaries (as defined under “Description of the Notes—Certain Definitions”) from incurring liens on principal properties or upon capital stock or indebtedness of any Material Subsidiary that directly owns any principal property, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the indentures governing the Notes. See “Description of Notes—Certain Covenants—Liens.” In addition, at the Issuer’s election, following such a rating event, the Guarantees of the Subsidiary Guarantors may be released. See “—The Guarantees may be released upon the occurrence of certain events.”

If we or existing investors sell our debt securities after this offering, the market price of the Notes could decline.

The market price of the Notes could decline as a result of our, or existing investors’, sales of the Issuer’s debt securities in the market after this offering, or the perception that such sales could occur. These sales, or the possibility that these sales may occur, also might make it more difficult for the Issuer to sell other debt securities in the future at a time and on terms that it deems appropriate.

After giving effect to the issuance of the Notes, assuming that on September 30, 2020, we had completed the Q4 Prepayment and the Q4 Notes Issuances, we would have outstanding approximately $72.4 billion in aggregate principal amount of debt securities, maturing in 2021 through 2060, $36.6 billion of which would be senior secured debt securities and $35.8 billion of which would be senior unsecured debt securities. Deutsche Telekom, which currently controls approximately 52.4% of the common stock of Parent (on a fully diluted basis), holds approximately $4.8 billion of these debt securities, maturing in 2022 through 2028. We have on file an effective shelf registration statement with respect to these debt securities held by Deutsche Telekom and Deutsche Telekom could sell all or any portion of them at any time.

There is no guarantee that an active trading market for the Notes will exist or that you will be able to sell your Notes.

An active trading market may not exist for the Notes. Historically, the market for non-investment grade debt has been subject to disruptions that have caused substantial volatility in the prices of securities similar to the notes. The market, if any, for the notes may not be free from similar disruptions, and any such disruptions may adversely affect the prices at which you may sell your notes if at all. In addition, subsequent to their initial issuance, the Notes may trade at a discount from their initial offering price, depending upon prevailing interest rates, the market for similar notes, our operating performance and financial condition and other factors. The Issuer does not intend to apply for the Notes to be listed on any securities exchange or to arrange for the Notes to be quoted on any quotation system. Further, the Notes are each a new issue of securities for which there is no established trading market. An active trading market may not develop for such Notes or, if developed, may not continue. If an active public trading market for the Notes does not develop or ceases to exist, the market price and liquidity of the Notes may be adversely affected.

The trading prices for the Notes will be directly affected by many factors, including our credit rating.

Credit rating agencies continually revise their ratings for companies they follow, including us. Changes in our performance, leverage or industry, or changes in the credit ratings agencies’ ratings methodologies, could lead to ratings downgrades. Any ratings downgrade could adversely affect the trading price of the Notes, or the trading market for the Notes, to the extent a trading market for the Notes exists or develops. The condition of the financial and credit markets and prevailing interest rates have fluctuated in the past and are likely to fluctuate in the future, and any fluctuation may impact the trading price of the Notes.

S-25

USE OF PROCEEDS

We estimate that the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes in this offering will be approximately $2.979 billion, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, which may include among other things, financing acquisitions of additional spectrum and refinancing existing indebtedness on an ongoing basis.

Affiliates of certain of the underwriters have made commitments to provide us with secured bridge financing in an aggregate amount of up to $5.0 billion pursuant to that certain bridge commitment letter dated as of October 30, 2020, as amended on November 13, 2020. A portion of these commitments may be reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate gross proceeds of the Notes. See “Underwriting.”

See “Description of Other Indebtedness and Certain Financing Transactions” for information on our outstanding indebtedness, including as to interest rate and maturity. Certain of the underwriters and/or their respective affiliates may be lenders under, or holders of, such indebtedness and would therefore receive any portion of the net proceeds of this offering used to repay such indebtedness. See “Underwriting.”

SELECTED HISTORICAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA OF T-MOBILE

The following table sets forth selected consolidated financial data for the Company. The data should be read in conjunction with T-Mobile’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 and for the three years ended December 31, 2019 contained in Parent’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 6, 2020 and T-Mobile’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 contained in Parent’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on November 5, 2020. The consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 and the consolidated statement of operations data for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 are derived from T-Mobile’s consolidated financial statements which are not included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement. T-Mobile’s unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as T-Mobile’s audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of our management, reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal, recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for those periods. The results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.

T-Mobile’s historical financial data may not be indicative of the results of operations or financial position to be expected in the future. In particular, on January 1, 2020, T-Mobile adopted ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” which requires a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectibility of the reported amount. T-Mobile adopted the new credit loss standard on January 1, 2020 by recognizing a cumulative effect of initially applying the new credit loss standard on its receivables portfolio. Additionally, on January 1, 2019, T-Mobile adopted ASU 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)”, which requires most lessees to report a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. T-Mobile adopted the new lease standard on January 1, 2019 by recognizing and measuring leases at the adoption date with a cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application. Comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the standards in effect for those periods. Lastly, on January 1, 2018, T-Mobile adopted ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” which requires entities to recognize revenue through the application of a five-step model, which includes: identification of the contract; identification of the performance obligations; determination of the transaction price; allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and recognition of revenue as the entity satisfies the performance obligations. T-Mobile adopted the new revenue standard on January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective method with the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application. Comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the standards in effect for those periods.

SELECTED HISTORICAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA OF SPRINT

The following table sets forth selected consolidated financial data for Sprint. The data should be read in conjunction with Sprint’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes as of March 31, 2020 and 2019 and for the three years ended March 31, 2020 contained in Exhibit 99.1 to Parent’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 18, 2020. The consolidated balance sheet data as of March 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 and the consolidated statement of operations data for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 are derived from Sprint’s consolidated financial statements which are not included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement. Sprint’s historical financial data may not be indicative of the results of operations or financial position to be expected in the future.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Act. During the year ended March 31, 2018, Sprint recorded a $7.1 billion non-cash tax benefit through net income (loss) for the re-measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities due to changes in tax laws included in the Tax Act. The re-measurement of deferred taxes had no impact on cash flows. See Note 12 – Income Taxes in Notes to Sprint’s Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Exhibit 99.1 to Parent’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 18, 2020 for additional information.

On April 1, 2018, Sprint adopted ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” Sprint adopted this standard using the modified retrospective method, which requires that the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard be recognized at the date of application beginning April 1, 2018. Sprint recorded a pre-tax cumulative effect of $1.7 billion ($1.3 billion, net of tax) as a reduction to the April 1, 2018 opening balance of accumulated deficit.

On April 1, 2019, Sprint adopted ASU 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” using the modified retrospective transition method. Results for reporting periods beginning after April 1, 2019 are presented under Topic 842, while amounts reported under prior periods have not been adjusted and continue to be reported under accounting standards in effect for those periods. See Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Other Information and Note 7—Leases in Notes to Sprint’s Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Exhibit 99.1 to Parent’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 18, 2020 for additional information related to the adoption of this standard.

The Sprint Spectrum Note Facility currently allows for the incurrence of up to $7.0 billion of indebtedness. However, the size of the Sprint Spectrum Note Facility may be increased, subject to the applicable covenants and limitations in the documentation governing the Company’s indebtedness outstanding from time to time.

The Existing Sprint Spectrum-Backed Notes are initially paid with interest-only payments, followed by amortizing quarterly principal payments, over the periods specified in the table below. The issuers may optionally prepay the outstanding principal amount of all or any tranche of the Existing Sprint Spectrum-Backed Notes in whole on any business day or in part on any payment date, without any obligation to prepay the Existing Sprint Spectrum-Backed Notes of another series or tranche proportionately or otherwise, at a price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Existing Sprint Spectrum-Backed Notes prepaid plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the applicable prepayment date, plus, in the case of any such optional prepayment at any time before the date that is one year prior to the anticipated repayment date set forth in the table below, a specified “make-whole” prepayment premium.

Tranche	Principal Amount as of September 30, 2020	Payment Dates	Interest- Only Payments	Amortizing Principal Payments	Anticipated Repayment Date
Series 2016-1 3.360% Senior Secured Notes, Class A-1	$875,000,000	March 20, June 20, September 20 and December 20	December 2016 through September 2017	December 2017 through September 2021	September 20, 2021

TOTAL	$4,812,500,000

Sprint Communications, Inc. leases the Sprint Spectrum Portfolio from the Existing Sprint Spectrum Note Entities and these lease payments are used to service the indebtedness under the Existing Sprint Spectrum-Backed Notes (the “Existing Sprint Spectrum Lease”). The payment obligations under the Existing Sprint Spectrum Lease, which has been pledged to the holders of the Existing Sprint Spectrum-Backed Notes as additional collateral, are secured by a shared first lien on the collateral that secures the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes that is capped at $3.5 billion.

Each Existing Sprint Spectrum Note Entity is a separate legal entity with its own separate creditors that would be entitled, prior to and upon the liquidation of the Existing Sprint Spectrum Note Entity, to be satisfied out of the Existing Sprint Spectrum Note Entity’s assets prior to any assets of the Existing Sprint Spectrum Note Entity becoming available to its parent entities (including T-Mobile). Accordingly, the assets of the Existing

S-36

Sprint Spectrum Note Entities would not be available to satisfy the debts and other obligations owed to other creditors of T-Mobile until the obligations of the Existing Sprint Spectrum Note Entities (including under the Existing Sprint Spectrum-Backed Notes) are paid in full.

As the Existing Sprint Spectrum Note Entities are wholly-owned subsidiaries of T-Mobile, these entities will be consolidated and all intercompany activity will be eliminated for accounting purposes.

Credit Agreement

On April 1, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), T-Mobile USA entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) by and among T-Mobile USA, as borrower, DB, as administrative agent, and the lenders and other financial institutions party thereto, initially providing for a $4.0 billion term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) and a $4.0 billion revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). On September 16, 2020, T-Mobile USA increased the aggregate commitment under the Revolving Credit Facility to $5.5 billion through an amendment to the Credit Agreement, with proceeds from draws thereunder to be used for general corporate purposes including working capital needs. On October 9, 2020, T-Mobile USA prepaid in full all $4.0 billion of borrowings outstanding, together with accrued and unpaid interest, under the Term Loan Facility.

Commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility will mature on April 1, 2025, except as otherwise extended or replaced. T-Mobile USA may repay amounts borrowed and/or terminate the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility (in whole or part) at any time without premium or penalty.

The rates of interest on amounts borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility are based on, at T-Mobile USA’s option, either the London Inter Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) (subject to a 0% LIBOR floor) plus a margin of 1.25% or an alternate base rate plus a margin of 0.25%, with the margins subject to reduction to 1.00% and 0.00%, respectively, if the Company’s Total First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is less than or equal to 0.75 to 1.00. The alternate base rate is the highest of (i) the prime rate of the administrative agent, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (iii) one-month adjusted LIBOR plus 1.00%. In the event that LIBOR becomes unascertainable, is no longer made available or a public announcement has been made that it will no longer be available or syndicated loans are being executed or amended to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark to replace LIBOR, then T-Mobile USA and the administrative agent are permitted to amend the Credit Agreement to replace LIBOR with an alternative benchmark rate.

The commitment fee for the Revolving Credit Facility is 0.375% per annum, subject to reduction to 0.25% if the Company’s Total First Lien Net Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 0.75 to 1.00 and an increase to 0.50% if the Company’s Total First Lien Net Leverage Ratio is greater than 1.25 to 1.00, in each case determined on a Pro Forma Basis (as defined in the Credit Agreement) as of the last day of the most recently ended Test Period (as defined in the Credit Agreement).

T-Mobile USA’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by Parent and by all of T-Mobile USA’s wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries (other than certain excluded subsidiaries, including certain designated special purpose finance vehicle entities, insurance subsidiaries and immaterial subsidiaries), all of Parent’s subsidiaries that guarantee certain of T-Mobile USA’s indebtedness, and any subsidiary of Parent that directly or indirectly owns any of T-Mobile USA’s equity interests. In addition, T-Mobile USA’s obligations under the Credit Agreement and the guarantee obligations of the guarantors are supported by a first priority pledge (subject to permitted liens under the Credit Agreement) in substantially all of the tangible and intangible personal property assets of T-Mobile USA and the guarantors (other than the unsecured guarantors), in each case subject to certain exceptions as set forth in the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agreement, dated as of April 1, 2020, by and among T-Mobile USA, Parent and the other grantors party thereto in favor of Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as collateral trustee, and related documentation.

The Credit Agreement contains certain limitations on T-Mobile USA and its restricted subsidiaries with respect to dividends and other distributions, restrictions on investments, indebtedness and guarantees, sales of certain assets, affiliate transactions, liens, business activities and consolidations and mergers.

The Credit Agreement provides that T-Mobile USA has the right at any time to request incremental term loans or incremental revolving credit commitments (or incremental equivalent debt) up to the greater of the sum of (a) the greater of (x) $11.0 billion and (y) 50% of Consolidated Cash Flow (as defined in the Credit Agreement) determined on a Pro Forma Basis for the most recently ended Test Period plus (b) the amount of all voluntary prepayments, cash amounts actually paid in connection with below par term loan buybacks (to the

S-37

extent such term loans are cancelled) and undrawn commitment reductions of term loans, revolving credit loans, incremental term loans, incremental revolving credit loans and incremental equivalent debt (in each case (A) with respect to revolving credit loans, to the extent accompanied by a permanent reduction in such revolving credit commitments and (B) to the extent not funded with the proceeds of debt constituting “long-term debt” (other than debt in respect of any revolving credit facility)) plus (c) such other amount so long as such amount at such time could be incurred without causing T-Mobile USA’s pro forma Total First Lien Net Leverage Ratio to exceed 2.0 to 1.0 in the case of incremental loans or commitments that are first lien obligations, Total Secured Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to exceed 2.5 to 1.0 in the case of incremental loans or commitments that are junior lien obligations, Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to exceed 6.0 to 1.0 in the case of incremental loans or commitments that are unsecured indebtedness or, in the case of incremental term loans incurred in connection with a permitted acquisition or other investment, the Total First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, Total Secured Net Leverage Ratio or Total Net Leverage Ratio, as applicable, immediately prior to such permitted acquisition or other investment. The lenders are not under any obligation to provide any such incremental commitments or loans.

The Revolving Credit Facility contains a financial maintenance covenant, requiring T-Mobile USA to maintain a Total First Lien Net Leverage Ratio of 3.30 to 1.00 or less at each fiscal quarter end beginning with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2020.

Under the Credit Agreement, a Change of Control (as defined in the Credit Agreement) that is accompanied or followed by a downgrade by one or more gradations (including gradations within ratings categories as well as between ratings categories) or withdrawal of T-Mobile USA’s corporate rating within a certain period by at least two out of three of S&P, Moody’s and Fitch, where our corporate rating on any day during such period is below the rating by each such rating agency in effect immediately preceding the change of control shall constitute an event of default; provided that in making the relevant decision(s) referred to above to downgrade or withdraw such ratings, as applicable, the relevant rating agency announces publicly or confirms in writing during such period that such decision(s) resulted, in whole or in part, from the occurrence (or expected occurrence) of such change of control; provided, further, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no event of default shall occur under the Credit Agreement if at the time of the applicable downgrade, our corporate rating by at least two out of three of S&P, Moody’s and Fitch is investment grade. If such a change of control accompanied by a downgrade or withdrawal were to occur, we may not have sufficient funds to pay the amounts owing under our Credit Agreement and may be required to obtain third-party financing in order to do so. However, we may not be able to obtain such financing on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.

The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, including, without limitation, payment defaults, covenant defaults, breaches of certain representations and warranties, cross defaults to certain material indebtedness, certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency, material judgments, a change of control coupled with a ratings downgrade, certain ERISA events and the invalidity of security documents and guarantees. If an event of default occurs and is not cured within any applicable grace period or is not waived, the administrative agent and the lenders will be entitled to take various actions, including, without limitation, the acceleration of amounts due thereunder.

Existing T-Mobile Tower Transactions

In 2012, T-Mobile conveyed to Crown Castle International Corp. (“CCI”) the exclusive right to manage and operate approximately 7,100 T-Mobile-owned wireless communication tower sites in exchange for net proceeds of $2.5 billion (“2012 Tower Transaction”). Rights to approximately 6,200 of the tower sites were transferred to CCI via a Master Prepaid Lease with site lease terms ranging from 23 to 37 years (“CCI Lease Sites”), while the remaining tower sites were sold to CCI (“CCI Sales Sites”). CCI has fixed-price purchase options for these towers totaling approximately $2.0 billion, based on the estimated fair market value at the end of the lease term. T-Mobile leases back space at certain tower sites for an initial term of ten years, followed by optional renewals at customary terms.

In 2015, T-Mobile conveyed to Phoenix Tower International (“PTI”) the exclusive right to manage and operate certain T-Mobile-owned wireless communication tower sites (“PTI Sales Sites”) in exchange for net proceeds of approximately $140 million (“2015 Tower Transaction”). In December 2019, T-Mobile sold 168 T-Mobile-owned wireless communications tower sites to an unrelated third party in exchange for net proceeds of $38 million and recognized a gain of $13 million (“2019 Tower Transaction” and together with the 2012 Tower

S-38

Transaction and the 2015 Tower Transaction, the “Existing T-Mobile Tower Transactions”). As of September 30, 2020, rights to approximately 150 of the tower sites remain operated by PTI under a management agreement. T-Mobile leases back space at certain tower sites for an initial term of ten years, followed by optional renewals at customary terms.

T-Mobile recorded long-term financial obligations in the amount of the net proceeds received and recognized interest on the obligations relating to the 2012 Tower Transaction and the 2015 Tower Transactions, respectively, (the “Tower Obligations”) at a rate of approximately 8% for the 2012 Tower Transaction and 5% for the 2015 Tower Transaction using the effective interest method.

Upon adoption of the new leasing standard T-Mobile was required to reassess the previously failed sale-leasebacks and determine whether the transfer of the assets to the tower operator under the arrangement met the transfer of control criteria in the revenue standard and whether a sale should be recognized. T-Mobile concluded that a sale has not occurred for the CCI Lease Sites and these sites continue to be accounted for as a failed sale-leaseback. T-Mobile concluded that a sale had occurred for the CCI Sales Sites and the PTI Sales Sites and therefore T-Mobile derecognized its existing long-term financial obligation and the tower-related property and equipment associated with these sites as part of the cumulative effect adjustment on January 1, 2019.

Prior to the Merger, Sprint entered into a lease-out and leaseback arrangement with Global Signal Inc., a third party that was subsequently acquired by CCI, whereby the third party would lease (Master Lease Sites) or otherwise manage (Managed Sites) approximately 6,400 cell sites which included the towers and related assets. These agreements were assumed upon the close of the Merger, at which point the remaining term of the lease-out was approximately 17 years with no renewal options. T-Mobile leases back space on certain of these towers. CCI has a fixed-price purchase option for all (but not less than all) of the leased or subleased sites for approximately $2.3 billion, exercisable one year prior to the expiration of the agreement and ending 120 days prior to the expiration of the agreement.

As of the Merger closing date (April 1, 2020), T-Mobile recognized Property and equipment at a fair value of $1.5 billion and tower obligations related to amounts owed to CCI under the leaseback of $1.1 billion as the transfer of control criteria in the revenue standard for the tower assets was not met.

Designated Letter of Credit Facilities

In connection with the closing of the BCA Transactions, T-Mobile USA designated obligations under certain letter of credit facilities as secured pari passu to the obligations under the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes and the Credit Agreement. Such obligations are also cash collateralized and therefore effectively senior to the Notes. As of September 30, 2020, there were approximately $0.2 billion in outstanding obligations under such facilities.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

T-Mobile has factoring arrangements, as amended from time to time, to sell certain Equipment Installment Plan (“EIP”) accounts receivable and service accounts receivable on a revolving basis as a source of additional liquidity. In 2015, T-Mobile entered into the EIP sale arrangement, which is a revolving facility and currently has a maximum funding commitment of $1.3 billion and on November 2, 2020, T-Mobile extended the scheduled expiration date to November 18, 2021. As of September 30, 2020, the EIP sale arrangement provided funding of $1.3 billion. In 2014, T-Mobile entered into the service accounts receivable arrangement which is also a revolving facility and currently has a maximum funding commitment of $950 million and expires March 2021. As of September 30, 2020, the service accounts receivable arrangement provided funding of $828 million. As of September 30, 2020, T-Mobile derecognized net receivables of $2.5 billion upon sale through these arrangements. These arrangements are not reflected on Parent’s consolidated balance sheet.

DESCRIPTION OF NOTES

General

T-Mobile USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), is issuing: $1,000,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of 2.250% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”), $1,000,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of 2.625% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) and $1,000,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of 2.875% Senior Notes due 2031 (the “2031 Notes,” and together with the 2026 Notes and the 2029 Notes, the “Notes”).

The Notes will be issued under a base indenture (the “Base Indenture”), dated as of April 28, 2013, among the Issuer, certain Guarantors and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee (together with its successors and assigns, the “Trustee”), as supplemented (i) with respect to the 2026 Notes by a supplemental indenture dated as of the settlement date of the 2026 Notes (the “2026 Notes Supplemental Indenture”), (ii) with respect to the 2029 Notes by a supplemental indenture dated as of the settlement date of the 2029 Notes (the “2029 Notes Supplemental Indenture”) and (iii) with respect to the 2031 Notes by a supplemental indenture dated as of the settlement date of the 2031 Notes (the “2031 Notes Supplemental Indenture” and each of the 2026 Notes Supplemental Indenture, the 2029 Notes Supplemental Indenture and the 2031 Notes Supplemental Indenture, with respect to the applicable series, the “Supplemental Indenture”) among the Issuer, T-Mobile US, Inc., a Delaware corporation and the direct parent company of the Issuer (“Parent”), the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Trustee, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as paying agent and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as registrar and transfer agent. In this Description of Notes, the term “Indenture” refers to the Base Indenture as supplemented separately by the Supplemental Indenture for the applicable series of Notes. The terms of the Notes of each series include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”).

In this Description of Notes, (i) the “Issuer” refers only to T-Mobile USA, Inc. and not to any of its Subsidiaries and (ii) “Parent” refers only to T-Mobile US, Inc. and not to any of its Subsidiaries.

The obligations and covenants of the Issuer described in this Description of Notes are only of the Issuer, and not of Parent. Although Parent is a Guarantor of the Notes, Parent and any of its Subsidiaries that are not the Issuer or the Issuer’s Restricted Subsidiaries are generally not subject to any of the obligations and covenants described hereunder.

The following description is a summary of the material provisions of the Indenture. It does not restate the terms of the Indenture in their entirety. We urge you to read the Indenture in its entirety because it, and not this Description of Notes, defines your rights as a holder of the Notes. For more information on how you can obtain a copy of the Base Indenture and the Supplemental Indentures, see “Where You Can Find More Information.” You can find the definitions of certain terms used in this Description of Notes under the caption “—Certain Definitions” below. Certain defined terms used in this Description of Notes but not defined below under “—Certain Definitions” have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

The registered holder of a Note will be treated as the owner of such Note for all purposes. Only registered holders will have rights under the Indenture.

Brief Description of the Notes and the Note Guarantees

The Notes

The Notes of each series:

• will be general unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer;

• will be senior in right of payment to any future Indebtedness of the Issuer to the extent that such future Indebtedness provides by its terms that it is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes;

• will rank equal in right of payment with any of the Issuer’s existing and future Indebtedness and other liabilities that are not by their terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes, including, without limitation, the obligations under the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes, the Existing Sprint Unsecured Notes, the Credit Agreement and the Tower Obligations;

• will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future secured indebtedness of the Issuer, including, without limitation, obligations under the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes and the Credit Agreement, in each case to the extent of the value of the Issuer’s assets securing such indebtedness;

S-40

• will be structurally subordinated to all of the liabilities and other obligations of the Issuer’s subsidiaries that are not obligors with respect to the Notes, including the Existing Sprint Spectrum-Backed Notes, factoring arrangements and tower obligations; and

• will be unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Parent and the Subsidiary Guarantors.

See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to this Offering and the Notes—The Notes and the Guarantees will be unsecured and effectively subordinated to the Issuer’s and the guarantors’ existing and future secured indebtedness, including the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes and borrowings under the Credit Agreement” and “Risk Factors—Risks Related to this Offering and the Notes—The Notes and the Guarantees will be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of the Issuer’s non-guarantor subsidiaries.”

Assuming that on September 30, 2020, we had completed the Q4 Prepayment and the Q4 Notes Issuances, and this offering of the Notes, we would have had approximately $80.0 billion of outstanding indebtedness and other obligations, excluding letter of credit obligations, including $36.6 billion of effectively senioroutstanding secured indebtedness and $38.9 billion of pari passu outstanding unsecured indebtedness. Our effectively senior,secured indebtedness would consist of $31.8 billion of Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes and an aggregate principal amount of $4.8 billion of Existing Sprint Spectrum-Backed Notes. Up to $2.2 billion would have remained available for issuance under the Sprint Spectrum Note Facility. Our pari passu unsecured indebtedness would consist of $3.0 billion of Notes offered hereby, $13.1 billion of Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes, $19.8 billion of Existing Sprint Unsecured Notes and approximately $3.1 billion in unsecured Tower Obligations. We also would have had $5.5 billion of revolving borrowings available on an effectively senior, secured basis under the Credit Agreement.

Assuming that on September 30, 2020, we had completed the Q4 Prepayment and the Q4 Notes Issuances and all of the Note Guarantees were in place, our non-guarantor subsidiaries would have had approximately $10.2 billion of total assets and approximately $7.0 billion of indebtedness and Tower Obligations outstanding.

The Note Guarantees

The Notes will be guaranteed by (i) Parent and any Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of the Issuer that (x) is not an Excluded Subsidiary and (y) is an obligor under (1) the Credit Agreement or (2) assuming such Subsidiary is not an Unrestricted Subsidiary, any capital markets debt securities in an aggregate principal amount in excess of $500.0 million and (ii) any future direct or indirect Subsidiary of Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent that directly or indirectly owns Capital Stock of the Issuer. Such entities are expected to include the Issuer’s Domestic Subsidiaries that are not Excluded Subsidiaries. These Note Guarantees will be joint and several obligations of the Guarantors. The obligations of each Guarantor under its Note Guarantee will be limited as necessary to prevent that Note Guarantee from constituting a fraudulent conveyance under applicable law. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to this Offering and the Notes—The Guarantees may be avoidable and therefore not be enforceable because of fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer laws.”

Each Note Guarantee of the Notes by a Guarantor:

• will be a general unsecured, unsubordinated obligation of such Guarantor;

• will be senior in right of payment to any future Indebtedness of that Guarantor to the extent that such future Indebtedness provides by its terms that it is subordinated in right of payment to such Guarantor’s Note Guarantee;

• will be equal in right of payment with any of the Guarantor’s existing and future Indebtedness and other liabilities that are not by their terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes, including, without limitation, obligations under the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes, the Existing Sprint Unsecured Notes and the Credit Agreement;

• will be effectively subordinated to any Subsidiary Guarantor’s existing and future secured Indebtedness, including, without limitation, obligations under the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes and the Credit Agreement, in each case to the extent of the value of the assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor securing such Indebtedness; and

• will be structurally subordinated to all of the Indebtedness and other obligations of any Subsidiaries of such Guarantor that are not obligors with respect to the Notes.

S-41

See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to this Offering and the Notes—The Notes and the Guarantees will be unsecured and effectively subordinated to the Issuer’s and the guarantors’ existing and future secured indebtedness, including the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes and borrowings under the Credit Agreement” and “Risk Factors—Risks Related to this Offering and the Notes—The Notes and the Guarantees will be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of the Issuer’s non-guarantor subsidiaries.”

The Issuer’s existing and future Subsidiaries are or will be required to guarantee the Notes only under the circumstances described below under the subheading “—Certain Covenants—Additional Note Guarantees.” In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any non-guarantor Subsidiaries, the non-guarantor Subsidiaries will pay their trade creditors and the holders of their other debt and obligations before they will be able to distribute any of their assets to the Issuer.

As of the Series Issue Date, all of the Issuer’s Subsidiaries other than Connect CCC, LLC, Sprint Federal Operations, LLC, T-Mobile Airtime Funding LLC, T-Mobile Handset Funding LLC and T-Mobile Ventures LLC will be “Restricted Subsidiaries.” However, under the circumstances described below under the caption “—Certain Covenants—Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries,” the Issuer will be permitted to designate certain of its Subsidiaries as “Unrestricted Subsidiaries.” The Issuer’s Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to many of the restrictive covenants in the Indenture. The Issuer’s Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not guarantee the Notes.

Except as otherwise provided in the following paragraph, prior to the occurrence of an Investment Grade Event Election, a Guarantor of the Notes of any series (other than Parent) may not sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another Person, other than the Issuer or another Guarantor, unless:

(1)
immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists in respect of the Notes of such series; and

(2)
either:

(a)
subject to the following paragraph and if it is not already a Guarantor of the Notes of such series, the Person acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under the Indenture and its Note Guarantee of the Notes of such series pursuant to a supplemental indenture; or

(b)
such sale or other disposition complies with the “Asset Sale” provisions of the Indenture (it being understood that only such portion of the Net Proceeds as is or is required to be applied on or before the date of such release in accordance with the terms of the Indenture needs to be so applied).

The Note Guarantee of a Guarantor will be automatically and unconditionally released in respect of the Notes of any series:

(1)
only in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor, at such time as such Subsidiary Guarantor (i) is not, (ii) is released or relieved as, or (iii) ceases (or substantially concurrently will cease) to be, a borrower or guarantor under the Credit Agreement and under the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes, except by or as a result of payment under such guarantee or direct obligation;

(2)
only in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor, in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Subsidiary Guarantor (including by way of merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, if the sale or other disposition is not prohibited by the “Asset Sale” provisions of the Indenture;

(3)
only in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor, if for any reason such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of the Issuer; provided, that any Subsidiary Guarantor that ceases to constitute a Subsidiary Guarantor or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary solely by virtue of no longer being a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary (a “Partially Disposed Subsidiary”) shall only be released from its Note Guarantee to the extent that the other person taking an equity interest in such Partially Disposed Subsidiary is not an affiliate of the Issuer that is controlled by Parent, DT or any of their respective subsidiaries or an employee of any of the foregoing;

S-42

(4)
upon the legal defeasance, covenant defeasance, or satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture as provided below under the captions “—Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance” and “—Satisfaction and Discharge”;

(5)
upon the liquidation or dissolution of any Subsidiary Guarantor, provided that no Event of Default has occurred that is continuing;

(6)
upon the merger or consolidation of any Guarantor with and into the Issuer or another Guarantor that is the surviving Person in such merger or consolidation;

(7)
in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor, at the time of an Investment Grade Event Election; or

(8)
if the Issuer designates any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Indenture.

Principal, Maturity and Interest

The Issuer will issue $3,000,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Notes in this offering, of which $1,000,000,000 in aggregate principal amount will be 2026 Notes, $1,000,000,000 in aggregate principal amount will be 2029 Notes and $1,000,000,000 in aggregate principal amount will be 2031 Notes.

The Issuer may issue further additional Notes of any series from time to time, and such additional Notes of such series may be issued under the Base Indenture as supplemented either by the Supplemental Indenture for such series of Notes or one or more other supplemental indentures. Any issuance of additional Notes is subject to all of the covenants in the Indenture including the covenant described below under the caption “—Certain Covenants—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock.” The Notes of any series and any additional Notes of such series subsequently issued will be treated as a single series for all purposes under the Indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase; provided that any additional Notes that are not fungible with the Notes of any series (or with any other additional Notes of that series) for U.S. federal income tax purposes will have a separate CUSIP, ISIN, common code or other identifying number, as applicable.

The Issuer will issue Notes in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The 2026 Notes will mature on February 15, 2026, the 2029 Notes will mature on February 15, 2029 and the 2031 Notes will mature on February 15, 2031.

Interest on the Notes will accrue from the date of original issuance or, if interest has already been paid, from the date it was most recently paid. If an interest payment date or the maturity date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of principal or interest will be made on the next succeeding Business Day as if made on the date the payment was due, and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period. Interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

Interest on the 2026 Notes will accrue at the rate of 2.250% per annum, interest on the 2029 Notes will accrue at the rate of 2.625% per annum and interest on the 2031 Notes will accrue at the rate of 2.875% per annum. Interest on the Notes will be payable semiannually in arrears on February 15 and August 15, commencing on August 15, 2021. The Issuer will make each interest payment to the holders of record of each series of the Notes on the immediately preceding February 1 and August 1 (whether or not a Business Day).

Payments of principal of and interest on the Notes issued in book-entry form or definitive form, if any, will be made as described below under the caption “—Methods of Receiving Payments on the Notes.”

Each series of Notes initially will be evidenced by one or more global notes deposited with a custodian for, and registered in the name of, Cede & Co., as nominee of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”).

Listing

The Issuer does not intend to apply for the Notes to be listed on any securities exchange or to arrange for the Notes to be quoted on any quotation system.

Methods of Receiving Payments on the Notes

If a holder of a definitive note has given wire transfer instructions to the Issuer and the Issuer is the paying agent, the Issuer will pay all principal, interest and premium, if any, on that holder’s Notes in accordance with those

S-43

instructions until given written notice to the contrary. All other payments on the Notes will be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, unless the Issuer elects to make interest payments by check mailed to the noteholders at their address set forth in the books and records of the registrar.

Paying Agent and Registrar for the Notes

The Trustee will initially act as paying agent, registrar and transfer agent where Notes may be presented for payment. The Issuer may change the paying agent, registrar or transfer agent without prior notice to the holders of the Notes, and the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as paying agent or registrar.

Transfer and Exchange

Except as set forth below, the global notes may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only to another nominee of DTC or to a successor of DTC or its nominee.

A holder of a definitive note may transfer or exchange Notes in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. The registrar and the Trustee may require a holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents in connection with a transfer of Notes. Holders will be required to pay all taxes relating to, arising out of, or in connection with such transfer. The Issuer will not be required to transfer or exchange any Note selected for redemption. Also, the Issuer will not be required to transfer or exchange any Note for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed.

Mandatory Redemption; Offers to Purchase; Open Market Purchases

The Issuer will not be required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. However, under certain circumstances, the Issuer may be required to offer to purchase Notes as described below under the caption “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders.”

As market conditions warrant, the Issuer and its affiliates may from time to time seek to purchase their outstanding debt securities or loans, including the Notes, in privately negotiated or open market transactions, by tender offer or otherwise. Subject to any applicable limitations contained in the agreements governing such indebtedness, any purchases made by the Issuer may be funded by the use of cash on its balance sheet or the incurrence of new secured or unsecured debt, including borrowings under credit facilities. The amounts involved in any such purchase transactions, individually or in the aggregate, may be material. Any such purchases may be with respect to a substantial amount of a particular class or series of debt, with the attendant reduction in the trading liquidity of such class or series.

Optional Redemption

2026 Notes

At any time prior to February 15, 2023, the Issuer may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes issued under the applicable Indenture, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to 102.250% of the principal amount of 2026 Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but not including, the applicable redemption date, subject to the rights of holders of 2026 Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date for periods prior to such redemption date, with an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of one or more sales of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer or contributions to the Issuer’s common equity capital made with an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of one or more sales of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of Parent; provided that:

• at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes issued under the applicable Indenture (excluding 2026 Notes held by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and

• the redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of the closing of such sale of Equity Interests by the Issuer or the date of contribution to the Issuer’s common equity capital made with an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of one or more sales of Equity Interests of Parent.

S-44

On or after February 15, 2023, the Issuer may redeem all or a part of the 2026 Notes, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount of 2026 Notes redeemed) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the 2026 Notes redeemed to, but not including, the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve month period beginning on February 15 of the years indicated below, subject to the rights of holders of 2026 Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date for periods prior to such redemption date:

Year	Percentage

Unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the 2026 Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the redemption date.

2029 Notes

At any time prior to February 15, 2024, the Issuer may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Notes issued under the applicable Indenture, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to 102.625% of the principal amount of 2029 Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but not including, the applicable redemption date, subject to the rights of holders of 2029 Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date for periods prior to such redemption date, with an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of one or more sales of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer or contributions to the Issuer’s common equity capital made with an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of one or more sales of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of Parent; provided that:

• at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Notes issued under the applicable Indenture (excluding 2029 Notes held by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and

• the redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of the closing of such sale of Equity Interests by the Issuer or the date of contribution to the Issuer’s common equity capital made with an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of one or more sales of Equity Interests of Parent.

On or after February 15, 2024, the Issuer may redeem all or a part of the 2029 Notes, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount of 2029 Notes redeemed) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the 2029 Notes redeemed to, but, not including, the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve month period beginning on February 15 of the years indicated below, subject to the rights of holders of 2029 Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date for periods prior to such redemption date:

Year	Percentage
2024	101.313%
2025	100.656%
2026 and thereafter	100.000%

At any time prior to February 15, 2024, the Issuer may also redeem all or a part of the 2029 Notes, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of 2029 Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium for the 2029 Notes as of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date, subject to the rights of holders of 2029 Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date for periods prior to such redemption date.

S-45

Unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the 2029 Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the redemption date.

2031 Notes

At any time prior to February 15, 2024, the Issuer may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2031 Notes issued under the applicable Indenture, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to 102.875% of the principal amount of 2031 Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but not including, the applicable redemption date, subject to the rights of holders of 2031 Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date for periods prior to such redemption date, with an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of one or more sales of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer or contributions to the Issuer’s common equity capital made with an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of one or more sales of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of Parent; provided that:

• at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2031 Notes issued under the applicable Indenture (excluding 2031 Notes held by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and

• the redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of the closing of such sale of Equity Interests by the Issuer or the date of contribution to the Issuer’s common equity capital made with an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of one or more sales of Equity Interests of Parent.

On or after February 15, 2026, the Issuer may redeem all or a part of the 2031 Notes, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount of 2031 Notes redeemed) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the 2031 Notes redeemed to, but, not including, the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve month period beginning on February 15 of the years indicated below, subject to the rights of holders of 2031 Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date for periods prior to such redemption date:

Year	Percentage
2026	101.438%
2027	100.958%
2028	100.479%
2029 and thereafter	100.000%

At any time prior to February 15, 2026, the Issuer may also redeem all or a part of the 2031 Notes, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of 2031 Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium for the 2031 Notes as of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date, subject to the rights of holders of 2031 Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date for periods prior to such redemption date.

Unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the 2031 Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the redemption date.

For the avoidance of doubt, the requirement to pay any Applicable Premium shall not arise in connection with any recovery of amounts due as a result of any breach of any covenant contained in the Indenture or the applicable Notes except where the transaction resulting in such breach was consummated with the intent to breach such covenant.

Prescription

Under New York’s statute of limitations, any legal action to enforce our payment obligations evidenced by the Notes must be commenced within six years after the payment thereof is due; thereafter our payment obligations will generally become unenforceable. In addition, the Indenture will prohibit the Trustee and the holders from accelerating the obligations under the Notes with respect to or as a result of an Event of Default consisting of any action taken, and reported publicly or to holders of Notes, more than two years prior to the declaration of such acceleration.

S-46

Repurchase at the Option of Holders

Change of Control Triggering Event

If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs with respect to any series of Notes, each holder of outstanding Notes of such series will have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that holder’s Notes of such series pursuant to a Change of Control Offer on the terms set forth in the Indenture. In the Change of Control Offer, the Issuer will offer a Change of Control Payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to, but not including, the date of purchase, subject to the rights of holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date for periods prior to such repurchase date (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer will send a notice (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each holder of Notes to which such Change of Control Triggering Event applies and the Trustee describing the transaction or transactions and identifying the rating decline that together constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the Notes of such series on the Change of Control Payment Date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 10 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures required by the Indenture and described in such notice. The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the Indenture, or compliance with the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the Indenture would constitute a violation of any such laws or regulations, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the Indenture by virtue of such compliance. In connection with the tender of any Notes with respect to a Change of Control Triggering Event, the tendering holder shall provide good title to the Notes, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, and shall represent and warrant that such holder is presenting good title, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, and such other representations and warranties as are customary.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful:

(1)
accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(2)
deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and

(3)
deliver or cause to be delivered to the paying agent the Notes properly accepted together with an officers’ certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuer.

The paying agent will promptly make payment, to each holder of Notes properly tendered, of the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each holder, a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

The provisions described above that require the Issuer to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control Triggering Event will be applicable whether or not any other provisions of the Indenture are applicable. Except as described above with respect to a Change of Control Triggering Event, the Indenture does not contain provisions that permit the holders of the Notes to require, or otherwise provide, that the Issuer repurchase or redeem the Notes in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar transaction.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer with respect to any series of the Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer for such series of Notes in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes of such series

S-47

properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer, or (2) notice of redemption with respect to such series has been given pursuant to the Indenture as described above under the caption “—Optional Redemption,” unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price.

A Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, and conditioned upon such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement has been executed for a transaction that would constitute a Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer.

In the event that holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of a series accept a Change of Control Offer and the Issuer purchases all of the Notes of such series held by such holders, the Issuer will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described above, to redeem all of the Notes of such series that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes of such series that remain outstanding, to, but not including, the date of redemption (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the redemption date).

The definition of Change of Control includes a phrase relating to the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of “all or substantially all” of the properties or assets of, prior to the occurrence of an Investment Grade Event Election, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole, and following the occurrence of an Investment Grade Event Election, Parent and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase “substantially all,” there is no precise established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, the ability of a holder of Notes to require the Issuer to repurchase its Notes as a result of a sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of less than all of the assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole to another Person or group may be uncertain.

Asset Sales

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:

(1)
the Issuer (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; and

(2)
at least 75% of the consideration received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary in the Asset Sale and all other Asset Sales since the Closing Date is in the form of cash, Cash Equivalents or Replacement Assets or a combination thereof. For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

(a)
any liabilities, as shown on the Issuer’s most recent consolidated balance sheet (or as would be shown on the Issuer’s consolidated balance sheet as of the date of such Asset Sale), of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Note Guarantees) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a novation agreement that releases the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability;

(b)
any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Issuer, or any such Restricted Subsidiary, from such transferee that are converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash, Cash Equivalents or Replacement Assets within 90 days after such Asset Sale, to the extent of the cash, Cash Equivalents or Replacement Assets received in that conversion;

(c)
consideration consisting of Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary (other than Subordinated Indebtedness) received after the Series Issue Date from Persons who are not the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary; and

(d)
any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer), taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (d) that is at any time outstanding, not to exceed 5% of the Issuer’s Total Assets (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value).

S-48

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the 75% limitation referred to above shall be deemed satisfied with respect to any Asset Sale in which the cash, Cash Equivalents or Replacement Assets portion of the consideration received therefrom, determined in accordance with the foregoing provision on an after-tax basis, is equal to or greater than what the after-tax proceeds would have been had such Asset Sale complied with the aforementioned 75% limitation.

Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary may apply an amount equal to such Net Proceeds:

(1)
to purchase Replacement Assets;

(2)
to prepay, repay, defease, redeem, purchase or otherwise retire Indebtedness and other Obligations under a Credit Facility or Indebtedness secured by property that is subject to such Asset Sale and, if the Indebtedness repaid is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto;

(3)
to prepay, repay, defease, redeem, purchase or otherwise retire Obligations under Indebtedness that is not Subordinated Indebtedness other than the Indebtedness described in clause (2) above (and, if the Indebtedness repaid is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto); provided that the Issuer shall equally and ratably prepay, repay, defease, redeem, purchase or otherwise retire (or offer to prepay, repay, defease, redeem, purchase or otherwise retire, as applicable) Obligations under the Notes on a pro rata basis for no less than 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but not including, the applicable redemption date; or

(4)
if the assets subject to such Asset Sale are the property or assets of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, to prepay, repay, defease, redeem, purchase or otherwise retire Indebtedness of such Restricted Subsidiary or Indebtedness of any other Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary enters into a binding written agreement committing the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, subject to customary conditions, to an application of funds of the kind described in clause (1) above, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed not to be in violation of the preceding paragraph so long as such application of funds is consummated within 545 days of the receipt of such Net Proceeds.

Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds of an Asset Sale, the Issuer may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise use the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by the Indenture.

An amount equal to any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in the third paragraph of this covenant will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $100.0 million, within 20 days thereof, the Issuer shall apply the entire aggregate amount of unutilized Excess Proceeds (not only the amount in excess of $100.0 million) to make an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to all holders of Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions requiring the Issuer to make an offer to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and purchase or redeem such other pari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased or redeemed with Excess Proceeds, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of consummation of the purchase, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness tendered in response to such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and the Issuer will select such other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased or redeemed on a pro rata basis unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange or depositary requirements. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.

The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Asset Sale provisions of the Indenture, or compliance with the Asset Sale provisions of

S-49

the Indenture would constitute a violation of any such laws or regulations, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Asset Sale provisions of the Indenture by virtue of such compliance.

The agreements governing the Issuer’s other Indebtedness contain, and future agreements may contain, prohibitions of certain events, including events that would constitute a Change of Control or an Asset Sale and may prohibit repurchases of or other prepayments in respect of the Notes. The exercise by the holders of the Notes of their right to require the Issuer to repurchase the Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event or an Asset Sale could cause a default under these other agreements, even if the Change of Control Triggering Event or Asset Sale itself does not, due to the financial effect of such repurchases or other prepayments on the Issuer. In the event a Change of Control Triggering Event or Asset Sale occurs at a time when the Issuer is prohibited from purchasing Notes, the Issuer could seek the consent of the holders of such Indebtedness to the purchase of Notes or could attempt to refinance the borrowings that contain such prohibition. If the Issuer does not obtain a consent or repay those borrowings, the Issuer will remain prohibited from purchasing Notes. In that case, the Issuer’s failure to purchase tendered Notes would constitute an Event of Default under the applicable Indenture that could, in turn, constitute a default under the other Indebtedness. Finally, the Issuer’s ability to pay cash to the holders of Notes upon a repurchase may be limited by the Issuer’s then existing financial resources. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to this Offering and the Notes—The indentures governing the Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Secured Notes, the Existing T-Mobile Unsecured Notes and the Existing Sprint Unsecured Notes, the Credit Agreement and other financing arrangements include or will include restrictive covenants that limit our operating flexibility.”

Selection and Notice

If less than all of the Notes of a series are to be redeemed, the Trustee will select Notes of such series for redemption on a pro rata basis unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange or depositary requirements.

No Notes of $2,000 or less can be redeemed in part. Notices of redemption will be sent electronically or mailed by first class mail at least 10 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be sent more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes of a series or a satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture with respect to such series. Any such notice of redemption may, at the Issuer’s discretion, state that such redemption is subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of an equity offering, other offering, issuance of Indebtedness or other corporate transaction or event. In addition, if such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Issuer in its sole discretion) by the redemption date (whether the original redemption date or the redemption date so delayed). In addition, the Issuer may provide in such notice or offer to purchase that payment of the redemption or purchase price and performance of the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such redemption or offer to purchase may be performed by another Person.

If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to that Note will state the portion of the principal amount of that Note that is to be redeemed. If in definitive form a new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note will be issued in the name of the holder of Notes upon cancellation of the original note. Except to the extent that a notice of redemption is conditional, Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption.

Certain Covenants

Changes in Covenants When Notes Rated Investment Grade

If on any date following the Series Issue Date with respect to a series of Notes:

(1)
the Notes of such series are rated Investment Grade by two out of the three Rating Agencies; and

(2)
no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Notes of such series (other than with respect to the covenants specifically listed under the following captions),

S-50

then, beginning on that day, the covenants specifically listed under the following captions in this prospectus supplement will cease to apply to such series of Notes and will not be later reinstated even if the ratings of the Notes of such series should subsequently decline:

(1)
“—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Asset Sales”;

(2)
“—Restricted Payments”;

(3)
“—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock”;

(4)
“—Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries”;

(5)
“—Transactions with Affiliates”;

(6)
“—Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries”; and

(7)
clauses (3) (to the extent that a Default or Event of Default exists by reason of one or more of the covenants specifically listed in this paragraph) and (4) of the covenant described below under the caption “—Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets.”

There can be no assurance that the Notes of any series will ever achieve an Investment Grade rating.

Restricted Payments

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:

(1)
declare or pay (without duplication) any dividend, or make any other payment or distribution, on account of the Issuer’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests (including any payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) or to the direct or indirect holders of the Issuer’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests in their capacity as such (other than dividends or distributions payable in Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer and other than dividends or distributions payable to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer);

(2)
purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value (including in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Issuer) any Equity Interests of the Issuer or any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer;

(3)
make any payment on or with respect to, or purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Subordinated Indebtedness (excluding any intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Issuer and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), except a payment of interest or principal at the Stated Maturity thereof; or

(4)
make any Restricted Investment (all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (1) through (4) above being collectively referred as “Restricted Payments”),

(b)
the Issuer would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Debt to Cash Flow Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of the covenant described below under the caption “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock”; and

(iii)
to the extent that any Restricted Investment that was made after the Closing Date, or, that any Restricted Investment that was made by MetroPCS Wireless, Inc. or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries after November 3, 2006 and prior to the Closing Date (provided that, and solely to the extent that, such Restricted Investment, at the time made, reduced the amount that would be calculated pursuant to clause (g) below), in each case, is sold for cash or Cash Equivalents, or otherwise is liquidated or repaid for cash or Cash Equivalents, an amount equal to such cash and Cash Equivalents; plus

(vi)
the aggregate amount of any Net Equity Proceeds taken into account for purposes of incurring Indebtedness pursuant to clause (14) the definition of “Permitted Debt” set forth below under the caption “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock,” after the Closing Date; plus

(15)
the distribution, as a dividend or otherwise, of shares of Capital Stock of, or Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary by, Unrestricted Subsidiaries (other than any Unrestricted Subsidiary whose principal assets consist of cash and Cash Equivalents to the extent such cash and Cash Equivalents were invested in a Permitted Investment);

provided, however, that at the time of, and after giving effect to, any Restricted Payment permitted under clauses (16) or (17), no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused thereby.

For purposes of determining compliance with this “Restricted Payments” covenant, in the event that an Investment or Restricted Payment meets the criteria of more than one of the categories described in clauses (1) through (17) above or one or more of the exceptions contained in the definition of “Permitted Investments”, the Issuer will be permitted to classify all or a portion of such Investment or Restricted Payment on the date of its occurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such Investment or Restricted Payment, in any manner that complies with this covenant.

The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) will be the Fair Market Value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment.

Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and the Issuer will not issue any Disqualified Stock and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any shares of Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the Issuer may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock and the Subsidiary Guarantors may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Preferred Stock, if the Debt to Cash Flow Ratio for the Issuer’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock or such Preferred Stock is issued, as the case may be, would have been no greater than 6.00 to 1.00, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the Disqualified Stock or the Preferred Stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period.

S-54

The first paragraph of this covenant will not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, “Permitted Debt”), nor will it prohibit the Issuer from issuing the following types of Disqualified Stock or the Issuer’s Restricted Subsidiaries from issuing the following types of Preferred Stock:

(1)
the incurrence by the Issuer and any Subsidiary Guarantor of additional Specified Indebtedness under Credit Facilities, provided that giving effect to such incurrence, the aggregate principal amount (with letters of credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries thereunder) of all Specified Indebtedness under Credit Facilities then outstanding under this paragraph (1) does not exceed the sum of (A) $8.0 billion, plus (B)(i) the greater of (x) $22.0 billion and (y) 1.00x Specified Consolidated Cash Flow, plus (ii) an unlimited amount, so long as on a Pro Forma Basis (and calculated (x) as if any incremental revolving facility were fully drawn on the effective date thereof and (y) excluding any cash constituting proceeds of any Credit Facility), with respect to any Credit Facility that constitutes First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Debt to Cash Flow Ratio does not exceed 2.00 to 1.00 (or, if incurred in connection with a Permitted Acquisition or other Specified Investment, the First Lien Debt to Cash Flow Ratio would not exceed the First Lien Debt to Cash Flow Ratio immediately prior to such Permitted Acquisition or other Specified Investment); provided that Credit Facilities will be deemed to be incurred under the foregoing clause (ii) before clause (i), and to the extent amounts are incurred concurrently under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the applicable ratio may exceed the applicable ratio level set forth in clause (ii) to the extent of such amounts incurred in reliance under clause (i);

(2)
the incurrence by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries of any Existing Indebtedness or any Series Issue Date Existing Indebtedness;

(5)
the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was permitted by the Indenture to be incurred under the first paragraph of this covenant or clauses (2), (3), (4), (5), (13), (14), (15), (24) or (25) of this paragraph;

(6)
the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness between or among Parent, the Issuer and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and any Guarantors; provided, however, that:

(a)
if the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and the payee is not the Issuer or a Guarantor, such Indebtedness must be expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations then due with respect to the Notes, in the case of the Issuer, or the Note Guarantee, in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor; and

(b)
(i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than Parent, the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, or a Guarantor and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either Parent, the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, or a Guarantor, will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (6);

S-55

(7)
the issuance by any of the Issuer’s Restricted Subsidiaries to the Issuer or to any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of shares of Preferred Stock; provided, however, that:

(a)
any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Preferred Stock being held by a Person other than Parent, the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer or a Guarantor; and

(b)
any sale or other transfer of any such Preferred Stock to a Person that is not either Parent, the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, or a Guarantor, will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an issuance of such Preferred Stock by such Restricted Subsidiary that was not permitted by this clause (7);

(8)
the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations (other than for speculative purposes);

(9)
the guarantee by the Issuer or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors of Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer that was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this covenant; provided that if the Indebtedness being guaranteed is subordinated to or pari passu with the Notes, then the guarantee shall be subordinated or pari passu, as applicable, to the same extent as the Indebtedness guaranteed;

(10)
the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness in respect of workers’ compensation claims, self-insurance obligations, bankers’ acceptances, deposits, performance bonds, completion bonds, bid bonds, appeal bonds and surety bonds, indemnity bonds, specific performance or injunctive relief bonds or similar bonds or obligations in the ordinary course of business, and any Guarantees or letters of credit functioning as or supporting any of the foregoing;

S-56

Subsidiaries pursuant to such agreements, in any case incurred in connection with the disposition of any business, assets or Restricted Subsidiary (other than Guarantees of Indebtedness incurred by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or Restricted Subsidiary for the purpose of financing such acquisition), so long as the amount does not exceed the gross proceeds actually received by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof in connection with such disposition;

(17)
the incurrence by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness constituting reimbursement obligations with respect to letters of credit issued in the ordinary course of business; provided that, upon the drawing of such letters of credit, such obligations are reimbursed within 30 days following such drawing;

(18)
the incurrence by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness to the extent that the net proceeds thereof are promptly deposited to defease or to satisfy and discharge the Notes;

(22)
the incurrence by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness consisting of take-or-pay obligations contained in supply agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business;

(24)
Indebtedness incurred in connection with the Towers Transaction; and

(25)
the incurrence by Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors of Indebtedness; provided, however, that the aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) of all Indebtedness incurred under this clause (25), when aggregated with the principal amount (or accreted value) of all other Indebtedness then outstanding and incurred pursuant to this clause (25), including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (25), does not exceed the greater of (x) $1,350.0 million and (y) 5.0% of the Consolidated Cash Flow of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which financial statements are available.

For purposes of (x) determining compliance with this “Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock” covenant, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (25) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this covenant, the Issuer will be permitted to classify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this covenant; and (y) determining the amount of Indebtedness that may be incurred pursuant to clause (1)(B)(ii) of the definition of Permitted Debt, the Issuer may elect, pursuant to an officers’ certificate delivered to the Trustee, to treat all or any portion of the commitment under any Indebtedness (and any refinancing with respect thereto) as being incurred at such time, in which case any subsequent incurrence of Indebtedness under such commitment or refinancing, as the case may be, shall not be deemed, for purposes of this

S-57

calculation, to be an incurrence at such subsequent time. The accrual of interest, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the reclassification of Preferred Stock as Indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles or the application thereof, and the payment of dividends on Disqualified Stock in the form of additional shares of the same class of Disqualified Stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Disqualified Stock for purposes of this covenant. Notwithstanding any other provision of this covenant, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this covenant shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values, and in no event shall the reclassification of any lease or other liability as indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles after the Closing Date be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness. In determining the amount of Indebtedness outstanding under one of the clauses above, the outstanding principal amount of any particular Indebtedness of any Person shall be counted only once and any obligation of such Person or any other Person arising under any guarantee, Lien, letter of credit or similar instrument supporting such Indebtedness shall be disregarded so long as it is permitted to be incurred by the Person or Persons incurring such obligation.

Liens

Prior to the occurrence of an Investment Grade Event Election, the Issuer will not, and will not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, create, incur or assume any Lien securing Indebtedness upon any asset now owned or hereafter acquired, except Permitted Liens, unless the Notes are equally and ratably secured (except that Liens securing Indebtedness that is contractually subordinated to the Notes shall be expressly subordinate to any Lien securing the Notes to at least the same extent that such Indebtedness is subordinate to the Notes).

Following the occurrence of an Investment Grade Event Election, the Issuer will not, and will not permit any Material Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create, incur or assume any Lien securing Indebtedness for Borrowed Money upon any of its or any Material Subsidiary’s Principal Property or upon Capital Stock or Specified Indebtedness of any Material Subsidiary that directly owns any Principal Property, except Permitted Post-IG Event Election Liens, unless the Notes are equally and ratably secured with (or, at the Issuer’s option, on a senior basis to) the Indebtedness for Borrowed Money so secured. Any Lien created for the benefit of the holders of the Notes pursuant to this paragraph is required to provide by its terms that such Lien shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the Lien that gave rise to such Lien created for the benefit of the holders of the Notes.

For purposes of determining compliance with this “Liens” covenant, (x) a Lien need not be incurred solely by reference to one category of Permitted Liens or Permitted Post-IG Event Election Liens, as applicable, but may be incurred under any combination of such categories (including in part under one such category and in part under any other such category) and (y) in the event that a Lien (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of one or more of such categories of Permitted Liens or Permitted Post-IG Event Election Liens, as applicable, the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, divide, classify or may subsequently reclassify at any time such Lien (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this “Liens” covenant and the definition of “Permitted Liens” or “Permitted Post-IG Event Election Liens,” as applicable.

Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

(1)
pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or pay any Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(2)
make loans or advances to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or

(3)
sell, lease or transfer any of its properties or assets to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

However, the preceding restrictions will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:

(1)
agreements or instruments governing (a) Existing Indebtedness and (b) Equity Interests and Credit Facilities as in effect on the Closing Date and, in each case, any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements or

S-58

instruments; provided that the amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are (in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Issuer or a senior financial officer of the Issuer, whose determination shall be conclusive) not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in those agreements or instruments on the Closing Date;

(2)
agreements or instruments governing Credit Facilities not in effect on the Closing Date so long as either (a) the encumbrances and restrictions contained therein do not impair the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer to pay dividends or make any other distributions or payments directly or indirectly to the Issuer in an amount sufficient to permit the Issuer to pay the principal of, or interest and premium, if any, on the Notes, or (b) the encumbrances and restrictions contained therein are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the Indenture;

(3)
Series Issue Date Existing Indebtedness, the Notes issued on the Series Issue Date, and any additional notes of the same series, the Note Guarantees in respect thereof, and the Base Indenture, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture;

(4)

(2)
the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Issuer) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made expressly assumes, by a supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee, the payment of the principal of and any premium and interest on the Notes and the performance or observance of every covenant of the Indenture on the part of the Issuer to be performed or observed;

(3)
immediately after such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and

(4)
the Issuer or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Issuer), or to which such sale, assignment, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made would, on the date of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related financing transactions as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, either (a) be permitted

S-60

to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Debt to Cash Flow Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of the covenant described above under the caption “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock” or (b) have a Debt to Cash Flow Ratio no greater than the Debt to Cash Flow Ratio of the Issuer immediately prior to such transaction.

When the successor Person assumes all of the Issuer’s obligations under the Indenture, the Issuer shall be discharged from those obligations.

This “Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets” covenant will not apply to (and the following shall be permitted notwithstanding such covenant):

(1)
a merger of the Issuer with a direct or indirect Subsidiary of Parent solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Issuer in another jurisdiction in the United States so long as the amount of Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (prior to the occurrence of an Investment Grade Event Election) or Specified Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries (following the occurrence of an Investment Grade Event Election) is not increased thereby; or

(2)
any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition of assets between or among the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (prior to the occurrence of an Investment Grade Event Election) or the Issuer and its Subsidiaries (following the occurrence of an Investment Grade Event Election).

Transactions with Affiliates

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Issuer (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”), in any one or series of related transactions involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $50.0 million, unless:

(1)
the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that, taken as a whole, are no less favorable to the Issuer or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and

(2)
the Issuer delivers to the Trustee:

(a)
with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $100.0 million, an officers’ certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this covenant; and

(b)
with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $250.0 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer set forth in an officers’ certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this covenant and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Issuer.

The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of the prior paragraph:

(1)
any employment agreement, employee benefit plan, agreement or plan relating to employee, officer or director compensation or severance, officer or director indemnification agreement or any similar

S-61

arrangement entered into by the Issuer, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or a direct or indirect parent of the Issuer existing on the Closing Date, or entered into thereafter in the ordinary course of business, and any indemnities or other transactions permitted or required by law, statutory provisions or any of the foregoing agreements, plans or arrangements and payments pursuant thereto;

(2)
transactions between or among Parent, the Issuer and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(4)
any issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer to, or receipt of any capital contribution from, any Affiliate of the Issuer;

(5)
transactions in connection with any Permitted Joint Venture Investment;

(6)
any Permitted Investments or Restricted Payments that do not violate the provisions of the Indenture described above under the caption “—Restricted Payments”;

(8)
transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, purchasers, sellers of goods or services, or licensees of intellectual property, in each case in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of the Indenture, provided that in the good faith determination of the Issuer’s Board of Directors or a senior financial officer of the Issuer, which determination shall be conclusive, such transactions are on terms, taken as a whole, not materially less favorable to the Issuer or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary than those that could reasonably be expected to be obtained in a comparable transaction at such time on an arm’s length basis from a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Issuer;

(9)
issuances, exchanges, purchases or repurchases of Notes or other Indebtedness of the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries or solicitations of amendments, waivers or consents in respect of Notes or such other Indebtedness, if such issuance, exchange, purchase, repurchase or solicitation is approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Issuer;

(10)
reasonable payments made for any financial advisory, financing, underwriting, placement or syndication services approved by the Issuer’s Board of Directors or a senior financial officer of the Issuer in good faith;

(12)
(i) the Business Combination Agreement and any Ancillary Agreements, as defined in the Business Combination Agreement, in each case, as the same may be amended, modified, supplemented or replaced from time to time on terms that, taken as a whole, in the good faith determination of the Issuer’s Board of Directors or a senior financial officer of the Issuer, which determination shall be conclusive, are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary than those of the agreement being amended, modified, supplemented or replaced, (ii) transactions or agreements relating to the DT Notes and the TMUS Working Capital Facility, each as may be amended, modified, or supplemented from

S-62

time to time, and any indebtedness incurred in connection with the refinancing of the foregoing, on terms that, taken as a whole, in the good faith determination of the Issuer’s Board of Directors or a senior financial officer of the Issuer, which determination shall be conclusive, are not materially less favorable to the Issuer than those of the DT Notes or TMUS Working Capital Facility, as applicable, and (iii) transactions between the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any Designated Tower Entities that have been designated as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, on the other hand, in connection with the Towers Transaction.

Additional Note Guarantees

Prior to the occurrence of an Investment Grade Event Election with respect to each series of Notes, if (a) any Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of the Issuer that is not an Excluded Subsidiary becomes an obligor with respect to any Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement, (b) any Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of the Issuer that is not an Excluded Subsidiary and that is not an Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes an obligor with respect to any capital markets debt securities in an aggregate principal amount in excess of $500.0 million or (c) Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent acquires or creates a Subsidiary that directly or indirectly owns Capital Stock of the Issuer, then the Issuer or Parent, as applicable, will, within 20 Business Days after the date on which it becomes an obligor with respect to any of the foregoing, or reasonably promptly thereafter, (i) cause that newly acquired or created Subsidiary to become a Guarantor of the Notes and execute a supplemental indenture and (ii), if requested by the Trustee, deliver an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee.

Following the occurrence of an Investment Grade Event Election, with respect to each series of Notes, if the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness for Borrowed Money of non-guarantor Subsidiaries that are not Excluded Subsidiaries (excluding any Specified Indebtedness under any Permitted Receivables Financing and any Specified Indebtedness of an “Unrestricted Subsidiary” (or the equivalent thereof) under the Credit Agreement or Permitted Receivables Financing Subsidiary) that is incurred or issued and outstanding exceeds $2,000.0 million (the “Guarantee Threshold”), then Parent shall cause such of its non-guarantor Subsidiaries that are not Excluded Subsidiaries to, within 60 days, execute and deliver a supplemental indenture providing for a Note Guarantee by such non-guarantor Subsidiaries (each such Note Guarantee, a “Post-Release Event Note Guarantee”) such that the aggregate principal amount of Specified Indebtedness of all other non-guarantor Subsidiaries that are not Excluded Subsidiaries (excluding any Specified Indebtedness under any Permitted Receivables Financing and any Specified Indebtedness of an “Unrestricted Subsidiary” (or the equivalent thereof) under the Credit Agreement or Permitted Receivables Financing Subsidiary) that is incurred or issued and outstanding does not exceed the Guarantee Threshold (after giving effect to the provision of Post-Release Event Note Guarantees pursuant to the foregoing); provided that (i) this covenant shall not be applicable to any Specified Indebtedness of any Subsidiary that existed at the time such Person became a Subsidiary of Parent (including any Specified Indebtedness incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person becoming a Subsidiary, so long as Parent and its Subsidiaries (other than such Person and its Subsidiaries) are not obligors under such Specified Indebtedness), (ii) if the Guarantee Threshold would be exceeded immediately after giving effect to the occurrence of an Investment Grade Event Election, then such Investment Grade Event Election shall be deemed not to have occurred with respect to the release of such Note Guarantees as the Issuer may designate such that the Guarantee Threshold would not be then exceeded and (iii) a Post-Release Event Note Guarantee shall be released to the extent the Guarantee Threshold would not be exceeded after giving effect to such release.

Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries

The Board of Directors of the Issuer may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under the covenant described above under the caption “—Restricted Payments” or under one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by the Issuer in its discretion, and (ii) any Guarantee by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof of any Indebtedness of the Restricted Subsidiary being so designated will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary (or both, if applicable) at the time of such designation. That

S-63

designation will only be permitted if the Investment and/or incurrence of Indebtedness would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Board of Directors of the Issuer may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if that redesignation would not cause a Default.

Any designation of a Subsidiary of the Issuer as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors giving effect to such designation and an officers’ certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by the covenant described above under the caption “—Restricted Payments.” The Board of Directors of the Issuer may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under the covenant described under the caption “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock,” calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the four-quarter reference period; and (2) no Default would be in existence following such designation, and as a result of, such designation.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer may at any time and from time to time designate any Designated Entity, by written notice to the Trustee, as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, and any such Subsidiary shall upon such notice immediately be designated and deemed an Unrestricted Subsidiary, without any further action by the Issuer (and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not require delivery of a resolution of the Board of Directors or of an officers’ certificate) (each, a “Specified Unrestricted Subsidiary Designation”). The aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Designated Entities so designated as Unrestricted Subsidiaries will, as calculated and to the extent permitted by clause (18) of the definition of Permitted Investments, be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of such Specified Unrestricted Subsidiary Designation under such clause (18), and not reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under the covenant described above under the caption “—Restricted Payments.”

Reports

Whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, so long as any Notes are outstanding, Parent will file a copy of each of the reports referred to in clauses (1) and (2) below with the SEC for public availability within the time periods (including all applicable extension periods) specified in the SEC rules and regulations applicable to such reports (unless the SEC will not accept such a filing):

(1)
all quarterly and annual financial reports that would be required to be contained in a filing with the SEC on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if Parent were required to file such reports, including a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and, with respect to the annual information only, a report on the annual financial statements by its certified independent accountants; and

(2)
all current reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Form 8-K if Parent were required to file such reports;

provided that the availability of the foregoing reports on the SEC’s EDGAR service (or successor thereto) shall be deemed to satisfy the Issuer’s delivery obligations to the Trustee and any holder of Notes.

All such reports will be prepared in all material respects in accordance with all of the rules and regulations applicable to such reports; provided that, if Parent is not required under the rules and regulations of the SEC to file such reports with the SEC for public availability, such reports need not be prepared in accordance with all of the rules and regulations applicable to such reports and shall only be required to include the information or disclosure that would be required by such form to the extent that, and in the same general style of presentation as, the same or substantially similar information or disclosure is also included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement. The Issuer will comply with §314(a) of the Trust Indenture Act.

If the SEC will not accept Parent’s filings for any reason, the Issuer will post the reports referred to in the preceding paragraphs on its website, on intralinks.com or another website within the time periods that would apply if Parent were required to file those reports with the SEC (including all applicable extension periods). If the combined operations of Parent and its Subsidiaries, excluding the operations of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries and excluding Specified Cash Equivalents, would, if held by a single Subsidiary of the Issuer, constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer, then the quarterly and annual financial information required by the preceding paragraphs will include

S-64

a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, and in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of the financial condition and results of operations of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of Parent and its other Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the requirements of this paragraph shall not apply if Parent or the Issuer files with the SEC the reports referred to in clauses (1) and (2) of the first paragraph of this covenant, and any such report contains the information required in this paragraph.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Issuer will not be deemed to have failed to comply with any of its obligations hereunder for purposes of clause (4) under “—Events of Default and Remedies” until 150 days after the receipt of the written notice delivered thereunder.

For so long as any Notes remain outstanding, if at any time Parent or the Issuer is not required to file with the SEC the reports required by the preceding paragraphs, the Issuer will furnish to the holders of Notes and to securities analysts and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

Any such reports delivered or filed by the Issuer with the Trustee shall be considered for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such reports shall not constitute notice or actual knowledge of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on an officers’ certificate).

Events of Default and Remedies

Each of the following is an “Event of Default” in respect of the Notes of a series:

(1)

(b)
results in the acceleration of such Specified Indebtedness prior to its express maturity;

In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, with respect to (i) prior to the occurrence of an Investment Grade Event, the Issuer, any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer, or (ii) following the occurrence of an Investment Grade Event, the Issuer, any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries of the Issuer that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer; in each case all outstanding Notes of such series will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. However, the effect of such provisions may be limited by applicable laws. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to any series of Notes, the Trustee or the holders, with a copy to the Trustee, of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of such series may declare all the Notes of such series to be due and payable immediately; provided that no such declaration may be made with respect to or as a result of any action taken, and reported publicly or to holders of Notes, more than two years prior to such declaration.

Subject to certain limitations, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of such series may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest, except a Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium, if any, on, or the principal of, the Notes of such series.

Subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of any holders of Notes unless such holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, a holder may pursue a remedy with respect to the Indenture or the Notes of any series only if:

(1)
such holder gives to the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default is continuing;

(2)
holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of the applicable series have made a written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee;

(3)
such holder or holders offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense to be incurred in compliance with such request;

(4)
the Trustee does not comply with the request within 90 days after receipt of the request and the offer of indemnity or security; and

(5)
during such 90-day period, holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of the applicable series have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request.

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of a series by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of all holders of Notes of that series, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default in respect of such series of Notes and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium, if any, on, or the principal of, the Notes of such series.

The Issuer and each Guarantor is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture. Within 30 days after becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, the Issuer is required to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default unless such Default or Event of Default has been cured or waived in such period.

S-67

No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Stockholders

No past, present or future director, officer, member, manager, partner, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Issuer or any Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture, the Note Guarantees, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy.

Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance

The Issuer may at any time, at the option of its Board of Directors evidenced by a resolution set forth in an officers’ certificate, elect to have all of its obligations discharged with respect to the outstanding Notes of any series and all obligations of the Guarantors discharged with respect to their Note Guarantees with respect to such series (“Legal Defeasance”) and cure all then existing Defaults and Events of Defaults except for:

(1)
the rights of holders of outstanding Notes of such series to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on, the Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to below;

(2)
the Issuer’s obligations with respect to the Notes of such series concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment of money for security payments held in trust;

(3)
the rights, powers, trusts, duties, indemnities and immunities of the Trustee, and the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ obligations in connection therewith; and

(4)
the Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance provisions of the Indenture.

In addition, the Issuer may, at its option and at any time with respect to any series of Notes, elect to have the obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors released with respect to the provisions of the Indenture described above under “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders” and under the caption “—Certain Covenants” (other than the covenant described under the caption “—Certain Covenants—Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets,” except to the extent described below) and the limitation imposed by clause (4) under the caption “—Certain Covenants—Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets” (such release and termination being referred to as “Covenant Defeasance”), and thereafter any omission to comply with such obligations or provisions will not constitute a Default or Event of Default with respect to such Notes. In the event Covenant Defeasance occurs with respect to any series of Notes in accordance with the Indenture, the Events of Default described under clauses (3) through (9) under the caption “—Events of Default and Remedies” (in the case of clauses (7) and (8), only with respect to the Issuer’s Subsidiaries) in each case, will no longer constitute an Event of Default.

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect to any series of Notes:

(1)
the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee or its designee, in trust, for the benefit of the holders of such series of Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, the outstanding Notes of such series on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuer must specify whether such Notes are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular redemption date; provided that in connection with any Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance that requires the payment of a premium, the amount deposited shall be sufficient for purposes of the Indenture to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee equal to premium calculated as of the date of the deposit, with any deficit as of the maturity date only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the maturity date;

(2)
in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee (which opinion of counsel may be subject to customary assumptions, qualifications and exclusions) confirming that (a) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (b) since the date Notes of such series were first issued, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion of counsel shall confirm that, the holders of the outstanding Notes of such series will

S-68

not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

(3)
in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee (which opinion of counsel may be subject to customary assumptions, qualifications and exclusions) confirming that the holders of the outstanding Notes of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

(4)
no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to such series of Notes on the date of such deposit (other than an Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds, or the imposition of Liens in connection therewith, to be applied to such deposit, or an Event of Default that will be cured by such Covenant Defeasance or Legal Defeasance) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material instrument to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound;

(5)
such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than the Indenture) to which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is bound;

(6)
the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an officers’ certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of preferring the holders of Notes over the other creditors of the Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Issuer or others;

(7)
the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an officers’ certificate, stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with; and

(8)
the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an opinion of counsel (which may be subject to customary assumptions, qualifications and exclusions), stating that all conditions precedent set forth in clauses (2) and (3) of this paragraph, as applicable, have been complied with.

Amendment, Supplement and Waiver

Except as provided in the next two succeeding paragraphs, the applicable Indenture with respect to the Notes of any series or the related Note Guarantees of the Notes of any series may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of such series then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes of such series), and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of the applicable Indenture with respect to such Notes or the related Note Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of such series (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes of such series).

Without the consent of each holder of Notes of the applicable series affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver may not (with respect to any Notes of a particular series held by a non-consenting holder):

(1)
reduce the principal amount of Notes of such series whose holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

(2)
reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note of such series or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes of such series (other than notice periods for redemption and provisions relating to the covenants described above under the caption “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders”);

(3)
reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any Note of such series;

(4)
waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes of such series (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes of such series by the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of such series and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

(5)
make any Note of such series payable in money other than that stated in the Notes of such series;

S-69

(6)
make any change in the provisions of the Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of holders of Notes of such series to receive payments of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on, the Notes of such series;

(7)
waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note of such series (other than a payment required by the covenants described above under the caption “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders”);

(8)
release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its related Note Guarantee of the Notes of such series or the applicable Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of such Indenture; or

(9)
make any change in the preceding amendment and waiver provisions.

Notwithstanding the preceding, without the consent of any holder of Notes, the Issuer, the Guarantors, and the Trustee may amend or supplement the applicable Indenture, the Notes of any series or the related Note Guarantees:

(1)
to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency;

(2)
to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes;

(3)
to provide for the assumption of the Issuer’s or a Guarantor’s obligations to holders of Notes of such series and related Note Guarantees in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Issuer’s or such Guarantor’s assets, as applicable;

(4)
to effect the release of a Guarantor from its Note Guarantee in respect of such series of Notes and the termination of such Note Guarantee, all in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Indenture governing such release and termination;

(5)
to add any Guarantor or Note Guarantee with respect to such series or to secure the Notes of such series or the related Note Guarantee;

(6)
to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the holders of Notes of such series or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such holder in any material respect;

(7)
to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act;

(8)
to change or eliminate any of the provisions of the applicable Indenture; provided that any such change or elimination shall not become effective with respect to any outstanding Notes of any series created prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture which is entitled to the benefit of such provision;

(9)
to provide for the issuance of and establish forms and terms and conditions of a new series of Notes as permitted by the Base Indenture;

(10)
to conform the text of the applicable supplemental indenture, the Notes of such series, or the related Note Guarantees to any provision of the “Description of Notes” section of this prospectus supplement applicable to such Note at the time of the initial sale thereof, in each case, as conclusively evidenced by an officers’ certificate;

(11)
to provide for the issuance of additional Notes of such series, provided that such additional Notes have the same terms as, and be deemed part of the same series as, the Notes of such series to the extent required under the applicable Indenture;

(12)
to evidence and provide for the acceptance of and appointment by a successor Trustee with respect to the Notes of such series and to add to or change any of the provisions of the Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trust by more than one trustee; and

(13)
to allow any Guarantor of the Notes of such series to execute a supplemental indenture and/or a Note Guarantee with respect to the Notes of such series.

The consent of the holders of the Notes is not necessary under the Indenture to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver. It is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment or waiver.

S-70

For the avoidance of doubt, no amendment to, or deletion of any of the covenants described under, “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders” or “—Certain Covenants,” or action taken in compliance with the covenants in effect at the time of such action, shall be deemed to impair or affect any legal rights of any holders of the Notes to receive payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such holder’s Notes.

Satisfaction and Discharge

The applicable Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to the Notes of a series issued thereunder, when:

(1)
either:

(a)
all Notes of such series that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Issuer, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

(b)
all Notes of such series that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the sending of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year and the Issuer or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee or its designee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the holders of such series of Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in such amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes of such series not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal of, and premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption; provided that upon any redemption that requires the payment of a premium, the amount deposited shall be sufficient for purposes of the Indenture to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee equal to the premium calculated as of the date of the notice of redemption, with any deficit as of the redemption date only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the redemption date;

(2)
the Issuer or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under the Indenture with respect to the Notes of such series; and

(3)
the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under the Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes of such series at maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be.

In addition, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee (a) an officers’ certificate, stating that all conditions precedent set forth in clauses (1)through (3) above have been satisfied, and (b) an opinion of counsel (which opinion of counsel may be subject to customary assumptions, qualifications and exclusions), stating that all conditions precedent set forth in clause (3) above have been satisfied.

Governing Law

The Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees will be governed by the laws of the State of New York.

Concerning the Trustee

We maintain ordinary banking relationships with Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas and its affiliates.

If the Trustee becomes a creditor of the Issuer or any Guarantor, the Indenture limits the right of the Trustee to obtain payment of claims in certain cases, or to realize on certain property received in respect of any such claim as security or otherwise. The Trustee will be permitted to engage in other transactions; however, if it acquires any conflicting interest when a Default is continuing it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days of the date such conflict arises, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as trustee or resign.

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of the applicable series will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee, subject to certain exceptions. The Indenture provides that in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be required, in the exercise of its power, to use the degree of care of a prudent man in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

S-71

Subject to such provisions, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Indenture at the request of any holder of Notes of the applicable series, unless such holder has offered to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.

BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM; DELIVERY AND FORM

Book-Entry, Delivery and Form

The Notes of each series will be deposited with the Trustee on behalf of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), in the form of one or more global notes (the “Global Notes”). The Notes will be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC’s nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. So long as DTC or its nominee is the registered owner of a Global Note, DTC or that nominee will be considered the sole owner or holder of the Notes represented by that Global Note for all purposes under the indenture governing the Notes and under the Notes of the applicable series. Except as set forth below, owners of beneficial interests in a Global Note will not be entitled to have Notes represented by that Global Note registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of certificated Notes and will not be considered the owners or holders thereof under the indenture or under the Notes of the applicable series for any purpose, including with respect to the giving of any direction, instruction or approval to the Trustee. Accordingly, each holder owning a beneficial interest in a Global Note must rely on the procedures of DTC and, if that holder is not a direct participant in DTC, on the procedures of the participant through which that holder owns its interest, to receive any payments on or a Note or to exercise any rights of a holder of Notes under the indenture or the Global Note.

Except as set forth below, the Global Notes may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only to another nominee of DTC or to a successor of DTC or its nominee. Beneficial interests in the Global Notes may not be exchanged for Notes in certificated form (“Certificated Notes”) except in the limited circumstances described below. See “—Exchange of Global Notes for Certificated Notes.” Except in the limited circumstances described below, owners of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of Notes in certificated form.

In addition, transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be subject to the applicable rules and procedures of DTC and its direct or indirect participants (including, if applicable, those of Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear System (“Euroclear”) or Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (“Clearstream”)), which may change from time to time.

Depositary Procedures

The following description of the operations and procedures of DTC is provided solely as a matter of convenience. These operations and procedures are solely within the control of the respective settlement systems and are subject to changes by them. The Issuer takes no responsibility for these operations and procedures and urges investors to contact the system or their participants directly to discuss these matters.

DTC has advised us that DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the laws of the State of New York, a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code and a “clearing agency” registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act. DTC was created to hold securities for its participating organizations (collectively, the “participants”) and to facilitate the clearance and settlement of transactions in those securities between participants through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of its participants. The participants include securities brokers and dealers (including the underwriters), banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. Access to DTC’s system is also available to other entities such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a participant, either directly or indirectly (collectively, the “indirect participants”). Persons who are not participants may beneficially own securities held by or on behalf of DTC only through the participants or the indirect participants. The ownership interests in, and transfers of ownership interests in, each security held by or on behalf of DTC are recorded on the records of the participants and indirect participants.

DTC has also advised the Issuer that, pursuant to procedures established by it:

(1)
upon deposit of the Global Notes, DTC will credit the accounts of participants designated by the underwriters with portions of the principal amount of the Global Notes; and

(2)
ownership of these interests in the Global Notes will be shown on, and the transfer of ownership of these interests will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC (with respect to the participants) or by the participants and the indirect participants (with respect to other owners of beneficial interests in the Global Notes).

S-111

As long as DTC is the depositary for the notes of the relevant series, you may hold interests in the notes of such series through participants in DTC, including Euroclear and Clearstream. Euroclear and Clearstream will hold interests, in each case, on behalf of their participants through customers’ securities accounts in the names of Euroclear and Clearstream on the books of their respective depositaries, which in turn will hold such interests in customers’ securities accounts in the depositaries’ names on DTC’s books. The Trustee has no liability or responsibility for the action or inaction of DTC or any other depositary. Payments, deliveries, transfers, exchanges, notices and other matters relating to the notes made through Euroclear or Clearstream must comply with the rules and procedures of those systems. Those systems could change their rules and procedures at any time. We have no control over those systems or their participants and we take no responsibility for their activities. Transactions between participants in Euroclear or Clearstream, on the one hand, and other participants in DTC, on the other hand, would also be subject to the rules and procedures of DTC.

Investors will be able to make and receive through Euroclear and Clearstream payments, deliveries, transfers, exchanges, notices and other transactions involving any securities held through those systems only on days when those systems are open for business. Those systems may not be open for business on days when banks, brokers and other institutions are open for business in the United States. In addition, because of time-zone differences, U.S. investors who hold their interests in the notes through these systems and wish to transfer their interests, or to receive or make a payment or delivery or exercise any other right with respect to their interests, on a particular day may find that the transaction will not be effected until the next business day in Luxembourg or Brussels, as applicable. Thus, investors who wish to exercise rights that expire on a particular day may need to act before the expiration date. In addition, investors who hold their interests through both DTC and Euroclear or Clearstream may need to make special arrangements to finance any purchases or sales of their interests between the U.S. and European clearing systems, and those transactions may settle later than transactions within one clearing system.

Except as described below, beneficial owners of an interest in the Global Notes will not have Notes registered in their names, will not receive physical delivery of Notes in certificated form and will not be considered the registered owners or “holders” thereof under the indentures governing the Notes for any purpose.

Payments in respect of the principal of, and interest and premium, if any, on a Global Note registered in the name of DTC or its nominee will be payable to DTC in its capacity as the registered holder under the indentures governing the Notes. Under the terms of the indentures governing the Notes, the Issuer and the Trustee will treat the persons in whose names the Notes, including the Global Notes, are registered as the owners of such Notes for the purpose of receiving payments and for all other purposes. Consequently, neither the Issuer or the Trustee, nor any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee, has or will have any responsibility or liability for:

(1)
any aspect of DTC’s records or any participant’s or indirect participant’s records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in the Global Notes or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any of DTC’s records or any participant’s or indirect participant’s records relating to the beneficial ownership interests in the Global Notes; or

(2)
any other matter relating to the actions and practices of DTC or any of its participants or indirect participants.

DTC has advised the Issuer that its current practice, upon receipt of any payment in respect of securities such as the Notes (including principal and interest), is to credit the accounts of the relevant participants with the payment on the payment date unless DTC has reason to believe it will not receive payment on such payment date. Each relevant participant is credited with an amount proportionate to its beneficial ownership of an interest in the principal amount of the relevant security as shown on the records of DTC. Payments by the participants and the indirect participants to the beneficial owners of Notes will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices and will be the responsibility of the participants or the indirect participants and will not be the responsibility of DTC, the Trustee or the Issuer. Neither the Issuer nor the Trustee nor any of their respective agents will be liable for any delay by DTC or any of its participants or indirect participants in identifying the beneficial owners of the Notes, and the Issuer, the Trustee and their respective agents may conclusively rely on and will be protected in relying on instructions from DTC or its nominee for all purposes.

S-112

Transfers between participants in DTC will be effected in accordance with DTC’s procedures, and will be settled in same-day funds, and transfers between participants in Euroclear and Clearstream will be effected in accordance with their respective rules and operating procedures.

DTC has advised the Issuer that it will take any action permitted to be taken by a holder of Notes only at the direction of one or more participants to whose account DTC has credited the interests in the Global Notes and only in respect of such portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes as to which such participant or participants has or have given such direction. However, if there is an event of default under the Notes, DTC reserves the right to exchange the Global Notes for legended Notes in certificated form, and to distribute such Notes to its participants.

Subject to compliance with the transfer restrictions applicable to the Notes described herein, cross-market transfers between DTC participants, on the one hand, and Euroclear or Clearstream participants, on the other hand, will be effected through DTC in accordance with DTC’s rules on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by their respective depositaries; however, such cross-market transactions will require delivery of instructions to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by the counterparty in such system in accordance with the rules and procedures and within the established deadlines (Brussels time) of such system. Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its respective depositary to take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or receiving interests in the relevant Global Note in DTC, and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures for same-day funds settlement applicable to DTC. Euroclear participants and Clearstream participants may not deliver instructions directly to the depositories for Euroclear or Clearstream.

Although DTC has agreed to the foregoing procedures in order to facilitate transfers of interests in the Global Notes among participants in DTC, it is under no obligation to perform such procedures, and such procedures may be discontinued or changed at any time. Neither the Issuer nor the Trustee nor any of their respective agents will have any responsibility for the performance by DTC or its participants or indirect participants of their respective obligations under the rules and procedures governing their operations.

Exchange of Global Notes for Certificated Notes

A Global Note is exchangeable for Certificated Notes if:

(1)
DTC (a) notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the Global Notes or (b) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, the Issuer fails to appoint a successor depositary within 120 days after receiving such notice or becoming aware that DTC is no longer so registered;

(2)
if requested by such a Holder after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default; or

(3)
the Issuer executes and delivers to the Trustee an officers’ certificate to the effect that such Global Note will be so exchangeable.

In all cases, Certificated Notes delivered in exchange for any Global Note or beneficial interests in Global Notes will be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of the depositary (in accordance with its customary procedures). Under the terms of the indentures governing the Notes, the Issuer and the Trustee will treat the persons in whose names any Certificated Notes are registered as the owners of such Certificated Notes for the purpose of receiving payments and for all other purposes.

Unless and until we issue the Notes in fully certificated, registered form, (1) you will not be entitled to receive a certificate representing your interest in the Notes; (2) all references in this prospectus supplement or in the accompanying prospectus to actions by holders will refer to actions taken by the depositary upon instructions from their direct participants; and (3) all references in this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus to payments and notices to holders will refer to payments and notices to the depositary, as the registered holder of the Notes, for distribution to you in accordance with its policies and procedures.

Same Day Settlement and Payment

The Issuer will make payments in respect of the Notes represented by the Global Notes (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Global Note holder. The Issuer will make all payments of principal, interest and premium, if any, with respect to

S-113

Certificated Notes by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the registered holders of the Certificated Notes or, if no such account is specified, by mailing a check to each such holder’s registered address. The Notes represented by the Global Notes are expected to be made eligible to trade in DTC’s Same-Day Funds Settlement System, and any permitted secondary market trading activity in such Notes will, therefore, be required by DTC to be settled in immediately available funds. The Issuer expects that secondary trading in any Certificated Notes will also be settled in immediately available funds.

Because of time zone differences, the securities account of a Euroclear or Clearstream participant purchasing an interest in a Global Note from a DTC participant will be credited, and any such crediting will be reported to the relevant Euroclear or Clearstream participant, during the securities settlement processing day (which must be a business day for Euroclear and Clearstream) immediately following the settlement date of DTC. DTC has advised the Issuer that cash received in Euroclear or Clearstream as a result of sales of interests in a Global Note by or through a Euroclear or Clearstream participant to a DTC participant will be received with value on the settlement date of DTC but will be available in the relevant Euroclear or Clearstream cash account only as of the business day for Euroclear or Clearstream following DTC’s settlement date.

CERTAIN U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

The following discussion is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the Notes issued pursuant to this offering, but does not purport to be a complete analysis of all potential tax effects. The effects of other U.S. federal tax laws, such as estate and gift tax laws, and any applicable state, local or foreign tax laws, are not discussed. This discussion is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial decisions, and published rulings and administrative pronouncements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”), in each case in effect as of the date hereof. These authorities may change or be subject to differing interpretations. Any such change or differing interpretation may be applied retroactively in a manner that could adversely affect a beneficial owner of the Notes. We have not sought and will not seek any rulings from the IRS regarding the matters discussed below. There can be no assurance the IRS or a court will not take a contrary position to that discussed below regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the Notes.

This discussion is limited to beneficial owners who hold the Notes as “capital assets” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment). In addition, this discussion is limited to persons purchasing the Notes for cash at original issue and at the original “issue price” of the applicable series of the Notes within the meaning of Section 1273 of the Code (i.e., the first price at which a substantial amount of the Notes of such series is sold for money to investors, other than bond houses, brokers, or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers). This discussion does not address all U.S. federal income tax consequences relevant to a beneficial owner’s particular circumstances, including the impact of the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income. In addition, it does not address consequences relevant to beneficial owners subject to special rules, including, without limitation:

• U.S. expatriates and former citizens or long-term residents of the United States;

• persons subject to the alternative minimum tax;

• U.S. Holders (as defined below) whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;

• persons holding the Notes as part of a hedge, straddle or other risk reduction strategy or as part of a conversion, constructive sale, wash sale or other integrated transaction;

• banks, insurance companies, and other financial institutions;

• real estate investment trusts or regulated investment companies;

• brokers, dealers or traders in securities or currencies;

• “controlled foreign corporations,” “passive foreign investment companies,” and corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax;

• U.S. Holders that hold Notes through non-U.S. brokers or other non-U.S. intermediaries;;

• S corporations, partnerships or other entities or arrangements treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and investors therein); and

• tax-exempt entities, retirement plans, individual retirement accounts, tax-deferred accounts, and governmental organizations.

U.S. Holders that use an accrual method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes generally are required to include certain amounts in income no later than the time such amounts are reflected on certain applicable financial statements. The application of this rule may require the accrual of income earlier than would be the case under the general U.S. federal income tax rules described below. U.S. Holders that use an accrual method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes should consult with their tax advisors regarding the potential applicability of this rule to their particular situation. The remainder of this discussion does not address the application of the foregoing rule.

If an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds the Notes, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in the partnership generally will depend on the status of the partner, the activities of the partnership and certain determinations made at the partner level. Accordingly, entities or arrangements classified as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes considering an investment in the

S-115

Notes and the partners in such partnerships should consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences to them.

THIS DISCUSSION IS FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT TAX ADVICE. INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE APPLICATION OF THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS TO THEIR PARTICULAR SITUATIONS AS WELL AS ANY TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF THE NOTES ARISING UNDER OTHER U.S. FEDERAL TAX LAWS (INCLUDING ESTATE AND GIFT TAX LAWS), UNDER THE LAWS OF ANY STATE, LOCAL OR NON-U.S. TAXING JURISDICTION OR UNDER ANY APPLICABLE TAX TREATY.

Tax Consequences Applicable to U.S. Holders

Definition of a U.S. Holder

For purposes of this discussion, a “U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of a Note that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is treated as:

• an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

• a corporation created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia;

• an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or

• a trust that (1) is subject to the primary supervision of a U.S. court and the control of one or more “United States persons” (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), or (2) has a valid election in effect to be treated as a United States person for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Payments of Interest

Interest on a Note generally will be included in a U.S. Holder’s gross income and taxed as ordinary income at the time such interest is received or accrued, in accordance with such U.S. Holder’s method of tax accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Sale or Other Taxable Disposition

A U.S. Holder will recognize gain or loss, if any, on the sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition of a Note. The amount of such gain or loss will generally equal the difference between the amount received for the Note in cash or other property valued at fair market value (less amounts attributable to any accrued but unpaid interest, which will be taxable as interest to the extent not previously included in income in the manner described above under “—Payments of Interest”) and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Note. A U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in a Note generally will be equal to the amount the U.S. Holder paid for the Note. Any gain or loss will be capital gain or loss, and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder has held the Note for more than one year at the time of sale or other taxable disposition. Otherwise, such gain or loss will be short-term capital gain or loss. Long-term capital gains recognized by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, generally will be taxable at a reduced rate. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

A U.S. Holder generally will be subject to information reporting and backup withholding when such holder receives payments of interest on a Note or receives proceeds from the sale or other taxable disposition of a Note (including a redemption or retirement of a Note). Certain U.S. Holders are exempt from backup withholding, including corporations and certain tax-exempt entities, provided that such U.S. Holders furnish appropriate evidence of exemption. A U.S. Holder will be subject to backup withholding if such holder is not otherwise exempt and fails to furnish the holder’s taxpayer identification number, which for an individual is ordinarily his or her social security number, or otherwise comply with the requirements of the backup withholding rules.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or a credit against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding their qualification for an exemption from backup withholding and the procedures for obtaining such an exemption.

S-116

Tax Consequences Applicable to Non-U.S. Holders

Definition of a Non-U.S. Holder

For purposes of this discussion, a “Non-U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of a Note that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, an individual, corporation, estate or trust that is not a U.S. Holder.

Payments of Interest

Subject to the discussions of backup withholding and FATCA below, interest paid on a Note to a Non-U.S. Holder that is not effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax or withholding tax provided that:

• the Non-U.S. Holder does not, actually or constructively, own 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of our voting stock within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3) of the Code;

• the Non-U.S. Holder is not a controlled foreign corporation related to us through actual or constructive stock ownership (as provided in the Code);

• the Non-U.S. Holder is not a bank receiving interest described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code; and

• the Non-U.S. Holder provides a signed written statement on an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable form), which can be reliably associated with the Non-U.S. Holder, certifying that the Non-U.S. Holder is not a United States person to (1) the applicable withholding agent, (2) a securities clearing organization, bank or other financial institution that holds customers’ securities in the ordinary course of its trade or business and holds the Note on behalf of the Non-U.S. Holder and certifies to the applicable withholding agent (directly or through one or more similarly situated financial institutions) that it has received from the Non-U.S. Holder (or another financial institution) the signed written statement described above and provides a copy of such statement; or (3) a “qualified intermediary” (within the meaning of applicable Treasury Regulations), provided that certain conditions are satisfied.

If a Non-U.S. Holder does not satisfy the requirements described above, such Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to a U.S. federal withholding tax of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on interest that is not effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States. To claim an entitlement to a reduction in or exemption from withholding on such interest as a result of an applicable tax treaty, the Non-U.S. Holder must provide the applicable withholding agent with a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable documentation) claiming a reduction in or exemption from withholding tax under an income tax treaty between the United States and the country in which the Non-U.S. Holder resides or is established. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding their entitlement to benefits under any applicable income tax treaty.

If interest paid to a Non-U.S. Holder is effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States, the Non-U.S. Holder will be exempt from the U.S. federal withholding tax described above, unless an applicable income tax treaty provides otherwise. To claim the exemption, the Non-U.S. Holder must furnish to the applicable withholding agent a valid IRS Form W-8ECI (or other applicable form), certifying that interest paid on a Note is not subject to withholding tax because it is effectively connected with the conduct by the Non-U.S. Holder of a trade or business within the United States.

Any such effectively connected interest generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the regular tax rates in the same manner as if the Non-U.S. Holder were a U.S. person, unless an applicable income tax treaty provides otherwise. A Non-U.S. Holder that is a corporation also may be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on its effectively connected earnings and profits, as adjusted for certain items.

The certifications described above must be provided to the applicable withholding agent prior to the payment of interest and must be updated periodically.

Sale or Other Taxable Disposition

Subject to the discussions of backup withholding and FATCA below, a Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain recognized upon the sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other

S-117

taxable disposition of a Note (excluding any amount allocable to accrued and unpaid interest, which generally will be treated as interest subject to the rules discussed above in “—Payments of Interest”) unless:

• the gain is effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, the Non-U.S. Holder maintains a permanent establishment in the United States to which such gain is attributable); or

• the Non-U.S. Holder is an individual present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year of the disposition and certain other requirements are met.

Gain described in the first bullet point above generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis at the regular tax rates in the same manner as if the Non-U.S. Holder were a U.S. person. A Non-U.S. Holder that is a foreign corporation also may be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on its effectively connected earnings and profits, as adjusted for certain items.

Gain described in the second bullet point above generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% (even though the individual is not considered a resident of the United States), which may be offset by certain U.S. source capital losses of the Non-U.S. Holder, provided the Non-U.S. Holder has timely filed U.S. federal income tax returns with respect to such losses.

Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding any applicable income tax treaties that may provide for different rules.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Payments of interest generally will not be subject to backup withholding, provided the holder certifies its non-U.S. status as described above under “—Payments of Interest.” However, information returns are required to be filed with the IRS in connection with any interest paid to the Non-U.S. Holder, regardless of whether any tax was actually withheld. In addition, proceeds of the sale or other taxable disposition of a Note (including a retirement or redemption of the Note) within the United States or conducted through certain U.S.-related brokers generally will be subject to backup withholding and/or information reporting, unless the applicable withholding agent receives the statement described above or the beneficial owner otherwise establishes an exemption. Proceeds of a disposition of a Note paid outside the United States and conducted through a non-U.S. office of a non-U.S. broker generally will not be subject to backup withholding or information reporting.

Copies of information returns that are filed with the IRS may also be made available under the provisions of an applicable treaty or agreement to the tax authorities of the country in which the Non-U.S. Holder resides or is established.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or a credit against a Non-U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Additional Withholding Tax on Payments Made to Foreign Accounts

Sections 1471 to 1474 of the Code and related Treasury guidance (commonly referred to as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, or “FATCA”) generally impose U.S. federal withholding tax at a 30% rate on payments made to non-U.S. entities (whether such entities are the beneficial owners or intermediaries) of U.S. source interest (including interest on the Notes) and gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition (including a retirement or redemption) of an obligation that produces U.S.-source interest (including a disposition of the Notes). This obligation applies unless the foreign entity complies with (1) certain information reporting requirements regarding its U.S. account holders and U.S. owners and (2) certain withholding obligations regarding certain payments to its account holders and certain other persons, or the foreign entity otherwise qualifies for an exemption from these rules. Accordingly, the entity through which a U.S. Holder or a Non-U.S. Holder holds its Notes will affect the determination of whether such withholding is required. Under recently proposed Treasury Regulations that may be relied upon pending finalization, the withholding tax on gross proceeds would be eliminated and, consequently, FATCA withholding on gross proceeds is not expected to apply. We will not pay additional amounts to U.S. Holders or Non-U.S. Holders in respect of amounts withheld under FATCA. Foreign financial institutions located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules.

Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the potential application of withholding under FATCA to their investment in the Notes.

UNDERWRITING

Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. is acting as representative of each of the underwriters named below. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in an underwriting agreement among the Issuer, Parent, the other guarantors and the representative for itself and as representative of the several underwriters, the Issuer has agreed to sell to the underwriters, and each of the underwriters has agreed, severally and not jointly, to purchase, the principal amount of Notes set forth opposite its name below.

	Principal Amount
Underwriter	2026 Notes	2029 Notes	2031 Notes
Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.	$147,000,000	$147,000,000	$147,000,000
Citigroup Global Markets Inc.	147,000,000	147,000,000	147,000,000
Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC	147,000,000	147,000,000	147,000,000

Barclays Capital Inc.	98,000,000	98,000,000	98,000,000
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC	98,000,000	98,000,000	98,000,000
Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC	98,000,000	98,000,000	98,000,000
RBC Capital Markets, LLC	98,000,000	98,000,000	98,000,000
Academy Securities, Inc.	5,000,000	5,000,000	5,000,000
C.L. King & Associates, Inc.	5,000,000	5,000,000	5,000,000
Great Pacific Securities	5,000,000	5,000,000	5,000,000
Mischler Financial Group, Inc.	5,000,000	5,000,000	5,000,000
Total	$1,000,000,000	$1,000,000,000	$1,000,000,000

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the underwriting agreement, the underwriters have agreed, severally and not jointly, to purchase all of the Notes sold under the underwriting agreement if any of these Notes are purchased. If an underwriter defaults, the underwriting agreement provides that the purchase commitments of the non-defaulting underwriter may be increased or the underwriting agreement may be terminated.

We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters and their controlling persons against certain liabilities in connection with this offering, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.

Commissions and Discounts

The representative has advised us that the underwriters propose initially to offer the Notes to the public at the public offering prices set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement. After the initial offering, the public offering prices or any other terms of this offering may be changed. The underwriters may offer and sell Notes through certain of their affiliates. The underwriters reserve the right to reject an order of Notes in whole or in part.

We estimate that our costs, fees and expenses in connection with this offering, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, will be $5.6 million.

No Market for the Notes

There is no established trading market for the Notes. The Issuer does not intend to apply for the Notes to be listed on any securities exchange or to arrange for the Notes to be quoted on any quotation system. The Issuer has been advised by the underwriters that they presently intend to make a market in the Notes after completion of this offering. The underwriters are not obligated, however, to make a market in the Notes and any such market making may be discontinued at any time at the sole discretion of the underwriters. In addition, market-making activities will be subject to the limits imposed by the Exchange Act, and may be limited. Accordingly, no assurance can be given as to liquidity of the trading market for the Notes or that an active public market for the Notes will develop. If an active public trading market for the Notes does not develop or ceases to exist, the market price and liquidity of the Notes may be adversely affected. If the Notes are traded, they may trade at a discount from their initial offering price, depending on prevailing interest rates, the market for similar securities, our operating performance and financial condition, general economic conditions and other factors.

S-119

No Sale of Similar Securities

We have agreed that we will not, after the date of this prospectus supplement and until the issue date of the Notes, without first obtaining the prior written consent of the representative, offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of any debt securities issued or guaranteed by the Issuer, Parent or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors and having a tenor of more than one year.

Settlement

We expect that delivery of the Notes will be made to investors on or about January 14, 2021, which will be the third business day following the date of this prospectus supplement (such settlement being referred to as “T+3”). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Notes on the date of pricing will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes initially will settle in T+3, to specify an alternative settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent failed settlement and should consult their own advisors.

Stabilization and Short Positions

In connection with the offering of the Notes, the underwriters, or persons acting on their behalf, may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the Notes. Specifically, the underwriters, or persons acting on their behalf, may bid for and purchase Notes in the open market to stabilize the price of the Notes. The underwriters, or persons acting on their behalf, may also over-allot the offering of the Notes, creating a syndicate short position, and may bid for and purchase Notes in the open market to cover the syndicate short position. In addition, the underwriters, or persons acting on their behalf, may bid for and purchase Notes in market-making transactions as permitted by applicable laws and regulations and impose penalty bids. Any of these activities may have the effect of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the Notes. These activities may also stabilize or maintain the respective market price of the Notes above market levels that may otherwise prevail. The underwriters are not required to engage in these activities, and may end these activities at any time. Accordingly, no assurance can be given as to the liquidity of, or trading markets for, the Notes.

Neither the Issuer nor any of the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of the Notes. In addition, neither the Issuer nor any of the underwriters make any representation that the representative will engage in these transactions or that these transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

Other Relationships

The underwriters and their respective affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include sales and trading, commercial and investment banking, advisory, investment management, investment research and principal investment, hedging, market making, brokerage and other financial and non-financial activities and services. Some of the underwriters and their affiliates have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with us or our affiliates. They have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions. In addition, in the ordinary course of their business activities, the underwriters and their affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. Such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. The underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments. Certain of the underwriters and/or their respective affiliates may be lenders under, or holders of, our indebtedness and would therefore receive any portion of the net proceeds of this offering used to repay such indebtedness. Affiliates of certain of the underwriters act as lenders and/or agents under the Credit Agreement. Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., one of the underwriters, is an affiliate of the Trustee.

If any of the underwriters or their affiliates have a lending relationship with us, certain of those underwriters or their affiliates are likely to hedge and certain other of those underwriters or their affiliates may hedge their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. Typically, they would hedge such

S-120

exposure by entering into transactions which consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities, including potentially the notes offered hereby. Any such credit default swaps or short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of the notes offered hereby.

In addition, affiliates of certain of the underwriters have made commitments to provide us with secured bridge financing in an aggregate amount of up to $5.0 billion pursuant to that certain bridge commitment letter dated as of October 30, 2020, as amended on November 13, 2020. A portion of these commitments may be reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate gross proceeds of the Notes. See “Use of Proceeds.”

Notice to Prospective Investors in Canada

The Notes may be sold only to purchasers purchasing, or deemed to be purchasing, as principal that are accredited investors, as defined in National Instrument 45-106 Prospectus Exemptions or subsection 73.3(1) of the Securities Act (Ontario), and are permitted clients, as defined in National Instrument 31-103 Registration Requirements, Exemptions and Ongoing Registrant Obligations. Any resale of the Notes must be made in accordance with an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the prospectus requirements of applicable securities laws.

Securities legislation in certain provinces or territories of Canada may provide a purchaser with remedies for rescission or damages if this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus (including any amendment thereto) contains a misrepresentation, provided that the remedies for rescission or damages are exercised by the purchaser within the time limit prescribed by the securities legislation of the purchaser’s province or territory. The purchaser should refer to any applicable provisions of the securities legislation of the purchaser’s province or territory for particulars of these rights or consult with a legal advisor.

Pursuant to section 3A.3 of National Instrument 33-105 Underwriting Conflicts (“NI 33-105”), the underwriters are not required to comply with the disclosure requirements of NI 33-105 regarding underwriter conflicts of interest in connection with this offering.

Prohibition of Sales to EEA Retail Investors

The Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area (“EEA”). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, “MiFID II”); (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (as amended, the “Insurance Distribution Directive”), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Directive 2017/1129 (as amended, the “Prospectus Regulation”). Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the “PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation. This prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus have been prepared on the basis that any offer of Notes in any Member State of the EEA will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Regulation from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of Notes. This prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus are not a prospectus for the purposes of the Prospectus Regulation.

Prohibition of sales to United Kingdom Retail Investors

The Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the United Kingdom (the “UK”). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (8) of Article 2 of Regulation (EU) No 2017/565 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (“EUWA”); (ii) a customer within the meaning of the provisions of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the “FSMA”) and any rules or regulations made under the FSMA to implement Directive (EU) 2016/97, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2(1) of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the EUWA; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Article 2 of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the EUWA. Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU)

S-121

No 1286/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the EUWA (the “UK PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under the UK PRIIPs Regulation.

We may sell the securities being offered hereby:

• directly to purchasers;

• through agents;

• through dealers;

• through underwriters;

• through a combination of any of the above methods of sale; or

• through any other methods described in a prospectus supplement.

We will identify the specific plan of distribution, including any direct purchasers, agents, dealers, underwriters and, if applicable, their compensation, the purchase price, the net proceeds to us, the public offering price, and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers, in a prospectus supplement.

The distribution of securities may be effected, from time to time, in one or more transactions, including block transactions and transactions on any organized market where the securities may be traded. The securities may be sold at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, or at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices relating to the prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. The consideration may be cash or another form negotiated by the parties. Agents, underwriters or broker-dealers may be paid compensation for offering and selling the securities. That compensation may be in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions to be received from us or from the purchasers of the securities.

Offers to purchase the securities may be solicited directly by us or by agents designated by us from time to time. We will, in the prospectus supplement relating to an offering, name any agent that could be viewed as an underwriter under the Securities Act and describe any commissions we must pay. Any such agent will be acting on a best efforts basis for the period of its appointment or, if indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, on a firm commitment basis.

If a dealer is utilized in the sale of the securities in respect of which this prospectus is delivered, we will sell the securities to the dealer, as principal. The dealer, which may be deemed to be an underwriter as that term is defined in the Securities Act, may then resell the securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale. Dealer trading may take place in certain of the securities, including securities not listed on any securities exchange.

If an underwriter or underwriters are utilized in the sale, we will execute an underwriting agreement with the underwriters at the time of sale to them and the names of the underwriters will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, which will be used by the underwriters to make resales of the securities in respect of which this prospectus is delivered to the public. The obligations of underwriters to purchase securities will be subject to certain conditions precedent and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of the securities of a series if any are purchased.

We may directly solicit offers to purchase the securities and we may make sales of securities directly to institutional investors or others. These persons may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to any resale of the securities. To the extent required, the prospectus supplement will describe the terms of any such sales, including the terms of any bidding or auction process, if used.

Underwriters, dealers, agents and other persons may be entitled, under agreements that may be entered into with us, to indemnification against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribution with respect to payments that they may be required to make in respect thereof. Underwriters, dealers and agents may engage in transactions with, or perform services for, us in the ordinary course of business.

Any person participating in the distribution of common stock registered under the registration statement that includes this prospectus will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act, and the applicable SEC rules and regulations, including, among others, Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of our common stock by any such person. Furthermore, Regulation M may restrict the ability of any person engaged in the

distribution of our common stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to our common stock. These restrictions may affect the marketability of our common stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to our common stock.

In order to facilitate the offering of the securities, any underwriters may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the securities or any other securities the prices of which may be used to determine payments on such securities. Specifically, any underwriters may overallot in connection with the offering, creating a short position for their own accounts. In addition, to cover overallotments or to stabilize the price of the securities or of any such other securities, the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, the securities or any such other securities in the open market. Finally, in any offering of the securities through a syndicate of underwriters, the underwriting syndicate may reclaim selling concessions allowed to an underwriter or a dealer for distributing the securities in the offering if the syndicate repurchases previously distributed securities in transactions to cover syndicate short positions, in stabilization transactions or otherwise. Any of these activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of the securities above independent market levels. Any such underwriters are not required to engage in these activities and may end any of these activities at any time.
