Dear Ryan:
 
I am pleased to inform you that you have been selected to receive a special cash
retention award.
 
This retention award consists of two payments totaling $112,500 before required
withholdings. You must remain a Sprint employee through November 1, 2012, except
as provided below, to receive full payment. Payments are targeted to occur on
the second paycheck of the applicable month. The first payment of $28,000 will
be scheduled for November 25, 2011 and the second payment of $84,500 on November
23, 2012.
 
Additional terms of award payment -
•
Involuntary termination without cause:

◦
In addition to your severance package, if your employment is involuntarily
terminated without cause, you will receive the entire award payment as soon as
administratively practicable after termination, subject to our receipt of your
effective release of claims.

•
Termination for any other reason:

◦
If you have a termination of employment for any other reason (including
voluntary termination, acceptance of a voluntary separation package, termination
for cause, or unsatisfactory performance or other inability to perform your job,
such as disability or death), you will forfeit any unpaid retention award
payments in their entirety.

 
 
I look forward to your ongoing contributions to make Sprint an even stronger
player in the telecommunications marketplace.
 
Best Regards,
 
 
Bob Brust
Chief Financial Officer
