NEW T-MOBILE

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS FOR EMPLOYEES (TO ADD TO CURRENTLY PUBLISHED LIST)

After the transaction closes, Deutsche Telekom’s (DT) is expected to hold approximately 42% of the outstanding common stock of the new T-Mobile, is T-Mobile still going to be consolidated into DT’s financial statements?

Yes. Although DT will hold less than 50% of the outstanding common stock of the New T-Mobile upon closing of the transaction, because DT is expected to retain control of the New T-Mobile under the transaction agreements, DT is expected to continue to consolidate New T-Mobile’s results on its financial statements immediately after the closing of the transaction.

What will be the target internal promotion / transfer % to fill the new positions created?

Together, the New T-Mobile is expected to employ more people in the U.S. and create more new jobs than Sprint and T-Mobile would separately. After the deal closes, we’ll determine the types of roles that’ll be needed to execute on our vision and how to fill them.

I started receiving a lot of requests from Sprint employees to be added as a connection on social media e.g. LinkedIn, Facebook, etc. Can I accept the requests?

You can add them — however, until the deal closes, we will continue to operate as separate companies and competitors. In other words, it’s business as usual, so please don’t share competitively sensitive information.

Letters: Closing The Broadband Gap In Rural America

By Billy Tauzin, The Advocate, June 5, 2018

Americans have long been defined by our entrepreneurial spirit and the belief that anyone can improve their current economic circumstances. As a former chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, I worked to ensure that everyone had a chance to realize the American dream, including rural Louisianans. In the 21st-century economy, access to that dream requires high-speed internet and 5G technology will be crucial to expanding opportunity in urban and rural America.

“Fifth generation,” or 5G, wireless technology will enable a dynamic new economy. Just as 4G provided the speed and connectivity that unlocked the potential of mobile applications like Uber and Instagram, 5G will jump-start the next wave of American innovation with the coverage and capacity needed to power millions of connected devices.

5G networks will move traffic more efficiently, power autonomous cars, and run mobile applications leveraging Artificial Intelligence. But the benefits go much farther. Estimates suggest 5G will boost U.S. GDP by $500 billion and create up to 3 million American jobs.

While the promise of 5G is monumental for urban areas, rural America will see the greatest benefit. By expanding broadband access, 5G will help connect rural small businesses with larger markets and allow

doctors to remotely treat patients who live hours away. Case in point, Scottsville, Kentucky, has used broadband-enabled telemedicine to connect doctors from Tennessee with local patients.

Unfortunately, Scottsville is the exception. More than 19 million rural Americans lack broadband access, and those that don’t often have little or no choice in provider. The reason is simple: it’s costly to lay wired connections and companies are not incentivized to invest.

While it has always been less expensive to cover large areas with wireless service, until recently wireless has not been able to compete with the speed and capacity of wired connections. However, 5G wireless technology is poised to bring strong and reliable broadband to many rural communities, and companies are already investing in this infrastructure. But for rural families looking to access high-speed internet, 5G can’t come soon enough.

As an adviser to T-Mobile, I was encouraged to see them announce their intention to merge with Sprint and lead the march to nationwide 5G coverage. The combination will capitalize on the network access and expertise of each company, accelerating investment and development of the first nationwide 5G network and creating pressure on AT&T and Verizon to speed up their own plans to develop and deploy 5G networks.

For too long, American communities have been divided by those who do and do not have access to broadband — the digital haves and have-nots. The merger of T-Mobile and Sprint can help change that by bringing 5G to rural America sooner.
