Sprint and Sprint Communications Announce Consent Solicitations with Respect to Certain Series of Notes

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. (BUSINESS WIRE), May 7, 2018 - Sprint Corporation (NYSE: S) announced today that it has commenced a consent solicitation (the “Sprint Consent Solicitation”) with respect to certain proposed amendments to the indenture, dated as of September 11, 2013 (as supplemented and amended, the “Sprint Indenture”), governing Sprint’s (i) 7.250% Notes due 2021 (CUSIP No. 85207UAE5) (the “Sprint 2021 Notes”), (ii) 7.875% Notes due 2023 (CUSIP No. 85207UAF2) (the “Sprint 2023 Notes”), (iii) 7.125% Notes due 2024 (CUSIP No. 85207UAH8) (the “Sprint 2024 Notes”), (iv) 7.625% Notes due 2025 (CUSIP No. 85207UAJ4) (the “Sprint 2025 Notes”) and (v) 7.625% Notes due 2026 (CUSIP No. 85207UAK1) (the “Sprint 2026 Notes” and, collectively with the Sprint 2021 Notes, the Sprint 2023 Notes, the Sprint 2024 Notes and the Sprint 2025 Notes, the “Sprint Notes,” and each series of the Sprint Notes, a “Sprint Series”).

Sprint Communications, Inc. (“SCI”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sprint, also announced today that it has commenced a consent solicitation (the “SCI Consent Solicitation”) with respect to certain proposed amendments to the indenture, dated as of November 20, 2006 (as supplemented and amended, the “SCI Indenture”), governing SCI’s (i) 11.500% Senior Notes due 2021 (CUSIP Nos. 852061AM2 and 852061AH3) (the “SCI 2021 Notes”), (ii) 7.000% Senior Notes due 2020 (CUSIP No. 852061AR1) (the “SCI 2020 Notes”) and (iii) 6.000% Senior Notes due 2022 (CUSIP No. 852061AS9) (the “SCI 2022 Notes” and, collectively with the SCI 2020 Notes and the SCI 2021 Notes, the “SCI Notes,” and each series of the SCI Notes, a “SCI Series”).

Each of the Sprint Consent Solicitation and the SCI Consent Solicitation is being conducted in connection with Sprint’s previously announced agreement to merge (the “Merger”) with a wholly-owned subsidiary of T-Mobile US, Inc. (“T-Mobile”), with Sprint surviving, after which Sprint is expected to become a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of T-Mobile USA, Inc. (“T-Mobile USA”), pursuant to that certain Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”), dated as of April 29, 2018, among Sprint, T-Mobile, SoftBank Corp. (“SoftBank”), Deutsche Telekom AG (“Deutsche Telekom”) and the additional parties thereto (the Merger, together with the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the “T-Mobile Transaction”).

Sprint Consent Solicitation

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions described in the Sprint Solicitation Materials (as defined below), Sprint is soliciting consents from holders (i) to amend the definition of “Change of Control” to exclude the T-Mobile Transaction (the “Sprint Change of Control Amendment”), (ii) to amend the definition of “Permitted Holder” to include SoftBank, T-Mobile, Deutsche Telekom and their affiliates and successors and certain groups of which they are members, (iii) to add a restriction on consolidations, mergers and transfers of all or substantially all property and assets of T-Mobile USA and (iv) to remove the restriction on transfers of all or substantially all property and assets of Sprint (collectively, the “Sprint Proposed Amendments”).


In addition, at and subject to the consummation of the T-Mobile Transaction, T-Mobile and T-Mobile USA will enter into a supplemental indenture to the Sprint Indenture to provide unconditional and irrevocable guarantees in respect of each Sprint Series of the Sprint Notes, regardless of whether the Sprint Requisite Consents (as defined below) are received (the “Sprint T-Mobile Guarantees”). No consideration is being, or will be, paid or given by holders in respect of the Sprint T-Mobile Guarantees.

Under the Sprint Indenture, the occurrence of both a “Change of Control” and a Ratings Decline (which is defined with respect to each Sprint Series as a ratings downgrade from both of Moody’s Investor Services, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”)) constitutes a “Change of Control Triggering Event” requiring Sprint to make an offer to each holder of Sprint Notes to repurchase each holder’s Sprint Notes for 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest (a “Sprint Change of Control Offer”). If the Sprint Change of Control Amendment becomes operative with respect to any Sprint Series, Sprint will not have to make a Sprint Change of Control Offer to holders of such Sprint Series in connection with the T-Mobile Transaction regardless of whether a Ratings Decline occurs.

Sprint is offering to pay each holder who validly delivers and does not validly revoke its consent to the Sprint Proposed Amendments in the manner described in the Sprint Solicitation Materials on or prior to the Sprint Expiration Time (as defined below), in each case on a pro rata basis with all other consenting holders, cash payments to Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (the “Payment Agent”) of the aggregate consent payments detailed in the table below (each a “Sprint Consent Payment” and, collectively the “Sprint Consent Payments”) for the benefit of the applicable holders, subject to satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, including the receipt of valid consents, with respect to any Sprint Series, of a majority in aggregate principal amount of each such Sprint Series (the “Sprint Requisite Consents”). If the Sprint Requisite Consents are not obtained with respect to each Sprint Series, Sprint may, in its sole discretion, accept the Sprint Requisite Consents only with respect to specific Sprint Series of Sprint Notes, in which event only holders of Sprint Notes of such specific Sprint Series will be bound by the Sprint Proposed Amendments and only holders validly delivering consents in respect of such Sprint Series will receive the Sprint Consent Payments with respect to such Sprint Series.

Under the SCI Indenture, the occurrence of both a “Change of Control” and a Ratings Decline (which is defined with respect to each SCI Series as a ratings downgrade from both of Moody’s and S&P) constitutes a “Change of Control Triggering Event” requiring SCI to make an offer to each holder of SCI Notes to repurchase each holder’s SCI Notes for 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest (a “SCI Change of Control Offer”). If the SCI Change of Control Amendment becomes operative with respect to any SCI Series, SCI will not have to make a SCI Change of Control Offer to holders of such SCI Series in connection with the T-Mobile Transaction regardless of whether a Ratings Decline occurs.
