***Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation***

On June 16, 2025, T-Mobile USA, Inc. ("T-Mobile USA" and together with T-Mobile US, Inc., "T-Mobile") announced the preliminary results of the previously announced offers to exchange (the "Exchange Offers"), pursuant to which T-Mobile offered to exchange all validly tendered and accepted 6.700% Senior Notes due 2033 (the "USCC 2033 Notes"), 6.250% Senior Notes due 2069 (the "USCC 2069 Notes"), 5.500% Senior Notes due 2070 (March) (the "USCC March 2070 Notes") and 5.500% Senior Notes due 2070 (June) (the "USCC June 2070 Notes" and together with the USCC 2033 Notes, USCC 2069 Notes and USCC March 2070 Notes, the "USCC Notes") issued by United States Cellular Corporation ("USCC") for new notes to be issued by T-Mobile USA (the "New T-Mobile Notes"), as described in the Exchange Offers.

In connection with the Exchange Offers, T-Mobile also solicited consents (the "Consent Solicitations") from holders of the USCC Notes to, among other things, modify or eliminate certain notice requirements and restrictive covenants in the USCC Existing Indentures (as defined below) (the "Proposed Amendments"). Withdrawal rights in connection with the Exchange Offers and the Consent Solicitations expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 13, 2025, which was the withdrawal deadline for the Exchange Offers and the Consent Solicitations. As of the withdrawal deadline, T-Mobile has received valid consents to the Proposed Amendments from the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of each series of the USCC Notes. On June 17, 2025, USCC entered into:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)the twelfth supplemental indenture, dated as of June 17, 2025 (the "USCC Twelfth Supplemental Indenture"), between USCC and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (formerly known as The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as successor to BNY Midwest Trust Company), as trustee (the "Trustee"), to the indenture, dated as of June 1, 2002 (the "USCC Base Indenture"), as supplemented by the Third Supplemental Indenture, dated as of December 3, 2003 (the "Third Supplemental Indenture") and the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 21, 2004 (the "Fifth Supplemental Indenture") relating to the USCC 2033 Notes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)the thirteenth supplemental indenture, dated as of June 17, 2025 (the "USCC Thirteenth Supplemental Indenture"), between USCC and the Trustee, to the USCC Base Indenture, as supplemented by the Ninth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of August 12, 2020 (the "Ninth Supplemental Indenture") relating to the USCC 2069 Notes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)the fourteenth supplemental indenture, dated as of June 17, 2025 (the "USCC Fourteenth Supplemental Indenture"), between USCC and the Trustee, to the USCC Base Indenture, as supplemented by the Tenth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of December 2, 2020 (the "Tenth Supplemental Indenture") relating to the USCC March 2070 Notes; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)the fifteenth supplemental indenture, dated as of June 17, 2025 (the "USCC Fifteenth Supplemental Indenture" and together with the USCC Twelfth Supplemental Indenture, the USCC Thirteenth Supplemental Indenture and the USCC Fourteenth Supplemental Indenture, the "USCC Supplemental Indentures"), between USCC and the Trustee, to the USCC Base Indenture, as supplemented by the Eleventh Supplemental Indenture, dated as of May 17, 2021 (the "Eleventh Supplemental Indenture" and collectively with the Third Supplemental Indenture, the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, the Ninth Supplemental Indenture, the Tenth Supplemental Indenture and the USCC Base Indenture, the "USCC Existing Indentures") relating to the USCC June 2070 Notes.

The USCC Supplemental Indentures provide that (a) the amendments to the USCC Existing Indentures contained therein will not become operative until the date on which the previously announced sale of USCC's wireless operations to T-Mobile US, Inc. (the "Acquisition") closes and (b) if the settlement date with respect to the issuance of the New T-Mobile Notes has not occurred within five business days following the date on which the Acquisition closes, the amendments previously effected shall be deemed null and void as if they had not occurred. Pursuant to the USCC Supplemental Indentures, the following sections or provisions (among others) under the USCC Existing Indentures will be deleted, modified or amended:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Section 3.02 (Action to Redeem Securities) of the USCC Base Indenture, Exhibit A (Form of 6.70% Senior Notes due 2033) to the Third Supplemental Indenture and the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, Section 2.4 (Optional Redemption) of the Ninth Supplemental Indenture, Section 2.4 (Optional Redemption) of the Tenth Supplemental Indenture and Section 2.4 (Optional Redemption) of the Eleventh Supplemental Indenture will be modified to significantly reduce the notice period set forth in such provisions in connection with a redemption of the applicable USCC Notes thereunder;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Sections 4.02 (Maintenance of Office or Agency for Payment, Registration, Transfer and Exchange of Securities), 4.03 (Paying Agent), 4.04 (Appointment to Fill Vacancy in Office of Trustee), 4.05 (Restriction on Consolidation, Merger of the Company), 4.06 (Original Issue Discount Security), 5.01 (Company to Furnish Trustee Information as to Names and Addresses of Securityholders) and 5.03 (Delivery Obligations of Company) of the USCC Base Indenture will be deleted;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Sections 3.1 (Limitations on Secured Debt) and 3.2 (Limitation on Sale and Leaseback) of the Third Supplemental Indenture, the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, the USCC Supplemental Indenture, the Tenth Supplemental Indenture and the Eleventh Supplemental Indenture will be deleted; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Section 4.1 (Additional Events of Default) of the Third Supplemental Indenture, the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, the Ninth Supplemental Indenture, the Tenth Supplemental Indenture and the Eleventh Supplemental Indenture will be deleted.

The USCC Supplemental Indentures also amend the USCC Existing Indentures, the USCC Notes and any exhibits thereto to make certain conforming or other changes, including modification or deletion of certain definitions and cross-references.

AMENDMENTS

SECTION 2.1 *Amendments to Section 3.02 of the Base Indenture.* Subject to Section 2.14 hereof, upon the occurrence of the M&A Closing Event, Sections 3.02(a) and (b) of the Base Indenture, as they apply to the 2033 Notes, shall be amended to delete the stricken text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: stricken text) and to add the bold and double-underlined text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: **<u>bold and double-underlined text</u>**) as follows:

"(a) <u>Notice of Redemption</u>. In case the Company shall desire to exercise such right to redeem all or, as the case may be, a portion of the Securities of any series in accordance with the right reserved so to do, it shall give notice of such redemption to holders of the Securities of such series to be redeemed by mailing, first class postage prepaid, a notice of such redemption not less than **<u>five Business Days</u>** 30 days and not more than 60 days before the date fixed for redemption of that series to such holders at their last addresses as they shall appear upon the Security Register. Any notice which is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the registered holder receives the notice. In any case, failure duly to give such notice to the holder of any Security of any series designated for redemption in whole or in part, or any defect in the notice, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Securities of such series or any other series. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption or subject to compliance with certain conditions provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers' Certificate evidencing compliance with any such restriction or condition.

Unless otherwise so provided as to a particular series of Securities, if at the time of mailing of any notice of redemption the Company shall not have deposited with the paying agent an amount in cash sufficient to redeem all of the Securities called for redemption, including accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption, such notice shall state that it is subject to the receipt of redemption moneys by the paying agent on or before the date fixed for redemption (unless such redemption is mandatory) and such notice shall be of no effect unless such moneys are so received on or before such date.

Each such notice of redemption shall identify the Securities to be redeemed (including CUSIP numbers, if any), specify the date fixed for redemption and the redemption price at which Securities of that series are to be redeemed, and shall state that payment of the redemption price of such Securities to be redeemed will be made at the office or agency of the Company, upon presentation and surrender of such Securities, that interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption will be paid as specified in said notice, that from and after said date interest will cease to accrue and that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case. If less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the notice to the holders of Securities of that series to be redeemed in whole or in part shall specify the particular Securities to be so redeemed. In case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice which relates to such Security shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed, and shall state that on and after the redemption date, upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities of such series in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Notice to Trustee of Securities to be Redeemed</u>. If less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the Company shall give the Trustee at least **<u>five Business Days'</u>** 45 days' notice in advance of the date fixed for redemption (unless the Trustee shall agree to a shorter period) **<u>in advance of the date fixed for the delivery of the notice of redemption to holders of Securities in accordance with Section 3.02(a) above</u>** as to the aggregate principal amount of Securities of the series to be redeemed, and thereupon the Trustee shall select, by lot or in such other manner as it shall deem appropriate and fair in its discretion **<u>(which may include in accordance with the relevant procedures of the Depositary)</u>** and which may provide for the selection of a portion or portions (equal to the smallest denomination of one whole Security of such series or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of such Securities of a denomination larger than the smallest denomination of one whole Security of such series, the Securities to be redeemed and shall thereafter promptly notify the Company in writing of the numbers **<u>(if applicable)</u>** of the Securities to be redeemed, in whole or in part.

------

The Company may, if and whenever it shall so elect, by delivery of instructions signed on its behalf by an Authorized Officer, instruct the Trustee or any paying agent to call all or any part of the Securities of a particular series for redemption and to give notice of redemption in the manner set forth in this Section, such notice to be in the name of the Company or its own name as the Trustee or such paying agent may deem advisable. In any case in which notice of redemption is to be given by the Trustee or any such paying agent, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to, or permit to remain with, the Trustee or such paying agent, as the case may be, such Security Register, transfer books or other records, or suitable copies or extracts therefrom, sufficient to enable the Trustee or such paying agent to give any notice by mail that may be required under the provisions of this Section."

SECTION 2.2 *Amendments to Section 4.02 of the Base Indenture.* Subject to Section 2.14 hereof, upon the occurrence of the M&A Closing Event, Section 4.02 of the Base Indenture captioned "Maintenance of Office or Agency for Payment, Registration, Transfer and Exchange of Securities," as it applies to the 2033 Notes, shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: "[Reserved.]"

"(a) <u>Notice of Redemption</u>. In case the Company shall desire to exercise such right to redeem all or, as the case may be, a portion of the Securities of any series in accordance with the right reserved so to do, it shall give notice of such redemption to holders of the Securities of such series to be redeemed by mailing, first class postage prepaid, a notice of such redemption not less than **<u>five Business Days</u>** 30 days and not more than 60 days before the date fixed for redemption of that series to such holders at their last addresses as they shall appear upon the Security Register. Any notice which is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the registered holder receives the notice. In any case, failure duly to give such notice to the holder of any Security of any series designated for redemption in whole or in part, or any defect in the notice, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Securities of such series or any other series. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption or subject to compliance with certain conditions provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers' Certificate evidencing compliance with any such restriction or condition.

Unless otherwise so provided as to a particular series of Securities, if at the time of mailing of any notice of redemption the Company shall not have deposited with the paying agent an amount in cash sufficient to redeem all of the Securities called for redemption, including accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption, such notice shall state that it is subject to the receipt of redemption moneys by the paying agent on or before the date fixed for redemption (unless such redemption is mandatory) and such notice shall be of no effect unless such moneys are so received on or before such date.

Each such notice of redemption shall identify the Securities to be redeemed (including CUSIP numbers, if any), specify the date fixed for redemption and the redemption price at which Securities of that series are to be redeemed, and shall state that payment of the redemption price of such Securities to be redeemed will be made at the office or agency of the Company, upon presentation and surrender of such Securities, that interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption will be paid as specified in said notice, that from and after said date interest will cease to accrue and that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case. If less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the notice to the holders of Securities of that series to be redeemed in whole or in part shall specify the particular Securities to be so redeemed. In case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice which relates to such Security shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed, and shall state that on and after the redemption date, upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities of such series in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Notice to Trustee of Securities to be Redeemed</u>. If less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the Company shall give the Trustee at least **<u>five Business Days'</u>** 45 days' notice in advance of the date fixed for redemption (unless the Trustee shall agree to a shorter period) **<u>in advance of the date fixed for the delivery of the notice of redemption to holders of Securities in accordance with Section 3.02(a) above</u>** as to the aggregate principal amount of Securities of the series to be redeemed, and thereupon the Trustee shall select, by lot or in such other manner as it shall deem appropriate and fair in its discretion **<u>(which may include in accordance with the relevant procedures of the Depositary)</u>** and which may provide for the selection of a portion or portions (equal to the smallest denomination of one whole Security of such series or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of such Securities of a denomination larger than the smallest denomination of one whole Security of such series, the Securities to be redeemed and shall thereafter promptly notify the Company in writing of the numbers **<u>(if applicable)</u>** of the Securities to be redeemed, in whole or in part.

------

The Company may, if and whenever it shall so elect, by delivery of instructions signed on its behalf by an Authorized Officer, instruct the Trustee or any paying agent to call all or any part of the Securities of a particular series for redemption and to give notice of redemption in the manner set forth in this Section, such notice to be in the name of the Company or its own name as the Trustee or such paying agent may deem advisable. In any case in which notice of redemption is to be given by the Trustee or any such paying agent, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to, or permit to remain with, the Trustee or such paying agent, as the case may be, such Security Register, transfer books or other records, or suitable copies or extracts therefrom, sufficient to enable the Trustee or such paying agent to give any notice by mail that may be required under the provisions of this Section."

Any notice which is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the registered holder receives the notice. In any case, failure duly to give such notice to the holder of any Security of any series designated for redemption in whole or in part, or any defect in the notice, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Securities of such series or any other series. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption or subject to compliance with certain conditions provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers' Certificate evidencing compliance with any such restriction or condition.

Unless otherwise so provided as to a particular series of Securities, if at the time of mailing of any notice of redemption the Company shall not have deposited with the paying agent an amount in cash sufficient to redeem all of the Securities called for redemption, including accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption, such notice shall state that it is subject to the receipt of redemption moneys by the paying agent on or before the date fixed for redemption (unless such redemption is mandatory) and such notice shall be of no effect unless such moneys are so received on or before such date.

If less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the notice to the holders of Securities of that series to be redeemed in whole or in part shall specify the particular Securities to be so redeemed. In case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice which relates to such Security shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed, and shall state that on and after the redemption date, upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities of such series in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Notice to Trustee of Securities to be Redeemed</u>. If less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the Company shall give the Trustee at least **<u>five Business Days'</u>** 45 days' notice in advance of the date fixed for redemption (unless the Trustee shall agree to a shorter period) **<u>in advance of the date fixed for the delivery of the notice of redemption to holders of Securities in accordance with Section 3.02(a) above</u>** as to the aggregate principal amount of Securities of the series to be redeemed, and thereupon the Trustee shall select, by lot or in such other manner as it shall deem appropriate and fair in its discretion **<u>(which may include in accordance with the relevant procedures of the Depositary)</u>** and which may provide for the selection of a portion or portions (equal to the smallest denomination of one whole Security of such series or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of such Securities of a denomination larger than the smallest denomination of one whole Security of such series, the Securities to be redeemed and shall thereafter promptly notify the Company in writing of the numbers **<u>(if applicable)</u>** of the Securities to be redeemed, in whole or in part.

The Company may, if and whenever it shall so elect, by delivery of instructions signed on its behalf by an Authorized Officer, instruct the Trustee or any paying agent to call all or any part of the Securities of a particular series for redemption and to give notice of redemption in the manner set forth in this Section, such notice to be in the name of the Company or its own name as the Trustee or such paying agent may deem advisable. In any case in which notice of redemption is to be given by the Trustee or any such paying agent, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to, or permit to remain with, the Trustee or such paying agent, as the case may be, such Security Register, transfer books or other records, or suitable copies or extracts therefrom, sufficient to enable the Trustee or such paying agent to give any notice by mail that may be required under the provisions of this Section."
