	 	6.	Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined parenthetically throughout this Agreement or defined in Section 6 of this Agreement.

	1.01.	Conditions of Employment 

 Subject to the terms
of this Agreement, the Company hereby agrees to continue to employ Executive as Chief Information and Network Officer, with such authority, power, responsibilities, and duties customarily exercised by a person holding such position in a company of
the size and nature of the Company. 

	1.02.	Performance of Duties 

 Executive shall, during
her employment with the Company, owe an undivided duty of loyalty to the Company and agrees to use her best efforts to promote and develop the business of the Company. Executive agrees that, during her employment with the Company, she must devote
her full business time, energies, and talents to serving as a senior executive officer of the Company and that she shall perform her duties faithfully and efficiently subject to the directions of the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive

and civic organizations; (ii) serve as a director of any for-profit business listed on Exhibit A hereto or, with the prior consent of the Board, serve as a director of any for-profit business that is not a Competitor; and (iii) acquire

Executive’s employment under this Agreement (the “Employment Term”) began on the Effective Date and ends on Executive’s 65th birthday (the “End Date”). This Agreement sets forth certain terms of
Executive’s employment during the Employment Term, the consequences of any termination of employment during the Employment Term, and the terms of certain restrictive covenants by Executive during and after the Employment Term. The Company and

any Period in which Executive is unable to substantially perform her duties with the Company due to physical or mental illness. In order to effect a termination for CIC Good Reason, Executive must, within 60 days following the event or circumstance
giving rise to Executive’s claim, deliver a written notice to the Company that sets forth the specific event or circumstance giving rise to CIC Good Reason by reference to one or more clauses of the definition of CIC Good Reason set forth in
Section 6.09 of this Agreement. If, within 30 days following notice from Executive, the Company corrects, in all material respects, the events or circumstances giving rise to Executive’s claim for CIC Good Reason, Executive shall not be
entitled to terminate her employment for CIC Good Reason by reason of such event or circumstance. 
  

	(d)	Non-CIC Good Reason Termination 

 Executive may terminate her
employment for Non-CIC Good Reason any time during the Employment Term following written notice and an opportunity for the Company to cure. In order to effect a termination for Non-CIC Good Reason, Executive must deliver a written notice to the
Company within 60 days following the event or circumstance giving rise to Executive’s claim of Non-CIC Good Reason. The notice must set forth the specific event or circumstance giving rise to Non-CIC Good Reason by reference to one or more
clauses of the definition of Non-CIC Good Reason set forth in Section 6.24 of this Agreement. If, within 30 days following notice from Executive, the Company corrects, in all material respects, the events or circumstances giving rise to
Executive’s claim for Non-CIC Good Reason, Executive shall not be entitled to terminate her employment for Non-CIC Good Reason by reason of such event or circumstance. 
  

	(e)	Payment of Compensation Earned Through Termination Date 

 Upon a
termination of Executive’s employment hereunder for any reason, Executive or, in the event of her death, Executive’s estate, in addition to any other payments or benefits to which Executive may be entitled hereunder, is entitled to

  

	 	(i)	Executive’s Base Salary prorated through the date of Separation from Service, 

  

	 	(ii)	any payment under the Incentive Plan for Performance Periods ending before the date of Separation from Service, unless eliminated or reduced, and then only to the extent that such
payments are eliminated or reduced, for all Senior Officers continuing employment with the Company, and 

  

	 	(iii)	any vacation pay for vacation accrued by Executive in the calendar year of termination but not taken by the Separation from Service date.

 Except as otherwise provided herein, the Company must pay any other employee benefits to which Executive
is entitled by reason of her employment to Executive or her estate at the time or times required by the terms of the applicable Company plan or policy.

 If, on the Termination
Date, Executive (i) is a member of the Board or any board of directors of one of Sprint’s subsidiaries, (ii) serves on the board of directors of any other corporation by nomination, appointment, or designation by Sprint or any of its
subsidiaries, or (iii) holds any other position with Sprint or any of its subsidiaries, Executive shall, unless otherwise agreed to by the Company, be deemed to have resigned from all such positions as of the Termination Date. Executive agrees
to execute such documents and take such other actions as the Company may request to reflect such resignations. 
  

	(g)	Condition to Certain Payments 

 Payments under Section 4 are
conditioned on Executive’s compliance with the requirements of Section 4.03(b). 
  

	(h)	Exit Interview 

 At the Company’s request, Executive shall
participate in an exit interview prior to Executive’s last day worked as an employee of the Company to provide for the orderly transition of her duties, to arrange for the return of the Company’s property, to discuss her intended new
employment, and to discuss and complete such other matters as may be necessary to ensure full compliance with this Agreement. 
  

	2.	Compensation 

 Subject to the terms of this Agreement, during the
Employment Term, while Executive is employed by the Company, the Company will compensate her for her services as follows: 
  

	2.01.	Base Salary 

 Executive shall receive an annual base
salary in an amount not less than her annual salary on the Effective Date, payable in monthly or more frequent installments in accordance with the Company’s payroll policies and practices (such annual base salary as adjusted pursuant to this
Section 2.01 shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Base Salary”). Executive’s Base Salary shall be reviewed, and may be increased but not decreased below the rate in effect on the Effective Date (other than
across-the-board reductions similarly affecting all Senior Officers), by the Board in a manner that is fair and pursuant to its normal performance review policies for Senior Officers. 
  

	2.02.	Incentive Payments 

 Executive will continue to
participate in the Incentive Plan, subject to its terms and conditions as they may from time to time be established, amended, interpreted, or terminated in accordance with the Company’s plans or policies governing such benefits to the
Company’s Senior Officers 

  

 - 4 - 

 
generally. Executive’s Targeted Compensation under the Incentive Plan shall be reviewed, and may be increased but not decreased below her Targeted
Compensation in effect in 2003 (other than across-the-board reductions similarly affecting all Senior Officers), by the Board in a manner that is fair and pursuant to its normal performance review policies for Senior Officers. 
  

	2.03.	Employee Benefits 

 The Company will provide Executive
with the employee benefits (including, without limitation, life, disability, medical and dental insurance coverage, participation in the Company’s Deferred Compensation Plan, Savings Plan, and the Pension Plan, and other benefits generally
provided to Senior Officers) that are no less favorable in the aggregate to Executive than those provided to her as of the Effective Date, subject to amendment, modification, interpretation by the Company, or termination in accordance with the
Company’s plans or policies governing such benefits to Senior Officers generally. 
  

	2.04.	Expense Reimbursement 

 The Company will reimburse
Executive for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred and accounted for in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Company for Senior Officers generally, as they may from time to time be established, interpreted, amended, or
terminated. 
  

	3.	Executive Covenants 

  

	3.01.	Principles of Business Conduct 

 Executive shall
adhere in all respects to the Company’s Principles of Business Conduct (or any successor code of conduct) as they may from time to time be established, interpreted, amended, or terminated. 
  

	3.02.	Proprietary Information 

 Executive acknowledges that
during the course of her employment she has learned or will learn or develop Proprietary Information. Executive further acknowledges that unauthorized disclosure or use of such Proprietary Information, other than in discharge of Executive’s
duties, will cause the Company irreparable harm. Except in the course of her employment with the Company under this Agreement, in the pursuit of the business of the Company, or as otherwise required in employment with the Company, Executive shall
not, during the course of her employment or at any time following termination of her employment, directly or indirectly, disclose, publish, communicate, or use on her behalf or another’s behalf, any Proprietary Information. If during or after
her employment Executive has any questions about whether particular information is Proprietary Information she shall consult with the Company’s Corporate Secretary or other representative designated by the Company. 
 Executive also agrees to promptly disclose to the Company any information, ideas, or inventions made or conceived by her that result from or are suggested by services
performed by her for the Company under this Agreement, and to assign to the Company all rights pertaining to such information, ideas, or inventions. Knowledge or information of any kind disclosed by Executive to the Company shall be deemed to have
been disclosed without obligation on the part of the 

  

 - 5 - 

 
Company to hold the same in confidence, and the Company shall have the full right to use and disclose such knowledge and information without compensation to
Executive beyond that specifically provided in this Agreement. 
  

	3.03.	Non-Competition 

 During Executive’s employment
with the Company and during the Non-Compete Period, Executive shall not engage in Competitive Employment, whether paid or unpaid and whether as a consultant, employee, or otherwise. This provision shall not apply if, within one year following a
Change in Control: 
  

	 	(i)	the Company terminates Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason other than for Cause or Total Disability; or 

  

	 	(ii)	Executive terminates her employment with the Company for CIC-Good Reason. 

 If Executive ceases to be employed by the Company because of the sale, spin-off, divestiture, or other disposition by the Company of a subsidiary, division, or other divested unit employing Executive, this provision shall continue to apply
during the Non-Compete Period, except that Executive’s continued employment for the subsidiary, division, or other divested unit disposed of by the Company shall not be deemed a violation of this provision. 
 Executive agrees that because of the worldwide nature of the Company’s business, breach of this Agreement by accepting Competitive Employment would irreparably
injure the Company and that, therefore, a limited geographic restriction is neither feasible nor appropriate to protect the Company’s interests. 
  

	3.04.	Inducement of Employees, Customers and Others 

 During
Executive’s employment with the Company and during the Non-Compete Period, Executive shall not directly or indirectly solicit, induce, or encourage any employee, consultant, agent, or customer of the Company, or vendor or other parties doing
business with the Company, to terminate their employment, agency, or other relationship with the Company or to render services for or transfer business to any Competitor, and Executive shall not initiate discussion with any such person for any such
purpose or authorize or knowingly cooperate with the taking of any such actions by any other individual or entity on behalf of the Competitor. 
  

	3.05.	No Adverse Actions 

 During the Non-Compete Period, Executive
shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, in any manner, solicit, request, advise, or assist any other person to (a) undertake any action that would be reasonably likely to, or is intended to, result in a Change in Control,
or (b) seek to control in any material manner the Board. 
  

	3.06.	Return of Property 

 Executive shall, upon her Termination
Date, return to the Company all property of the Company in her possession, including all notes, reports, sketches, plans, published memoranda, or other 

  

 - 6 - 

 
documents, whether in hard copy or in electronic form, created, developed, generated, received, or held by Executive during her employment, concerning or
related to the Company’s business, whether containing or relating to Proprietary Information or not. Executive shall not remove, by e-mail, by removal of computer discs or hard drives, or by other means, any of the above property containing
Proprietary Information, or reproductions or copies thereof, or any apparatus from the Company’s premises without the Company’s written consent. 
  

	3.07.	Mutual Non-disparagement 

 Executive agrees to refrain from
making any statements about the Company or its officers or directors that would disparage, or reflect unfavorably upon the image or reputation of the Company or any such officer or director. The Company agrees to use reasonable efforts to prevent
its directors and officers from making any statements about Executive that would disparage, or reflect unfavorably upon the image or reputation of, Executive. 
  

	3.08.	Assistance with Claims 

 Executive agrees that,
consistent with Executive’s business and personal affairs, during and after her employment by the Company, she will assist the Company in the defense of any claims or potential claims that may be made or threatened to be made against it in any
action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (“Proceeding”) and will assist the Company in the prosecution of any claims that may be made by the Company in any Proceeding, to the extent that
such claims may relate to Executive’s services provided under this Agreement. 
 Executive agrees, unless precluded by law, to promptly inform the
Company if Executive is asked to participate (or otherwise become involved) in any Proceeding involving such claims or potential claims. 
 Executive also
agrees, unless precluded by law, to promptly inform the Company if Executive is asked to assist in any investigation (whether governmental or private) of the Company (or its actions), regardless of whether a lawsuit has then been filed against the
Company with respect to such investigation. The Company agrees to reimburse Executive for all of Executive’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses associated with such assistance, including travel expenses and any attorneys’ fees and shall pay
a reasonable per diem fee (equal to 1/250th of her Base Salary rate at her Termination Date) for Executive’s services within 30 days of such services. 
  

	3.09.	Key Man Life Insurance 

 The Company may, at its discretion,
purchase for its own benefit and at its own expense, key man life insurance on the life of Executive. Neither Executive nor Executive’s spouse or dependents shall have any right, title, or interest in or to such insurance or the proceeds
thereof. Executive agrees to cooperate with the life insurance company and the Company in the insurance underwriting process, including submitting to a physical examination and other tests necessary to secure coverage, and signing all appropriate
applications and written forms as may be required by the insurance company.

	4.	Payments On Certain Terminations 

  

	4.01.	Payments on Certain Terminations Not in Connection with Change in Control 

 If, during the Employment Term but not within a CIC Protected Period, (a) the Company terminates Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason other than (x) Cause or (y) Executive’s
Total Disability or (b) Executive terminates her employment with the Company for Non-CIC Good Reason and, in either event such termination constitutes a Separation from Service, then Executive shall, subject to Section 2.05 and the other
applicable provisions of this Section 4, be entitled to the following payments and benefits (the “Non-CIC Benefits”) in lieu of any other payments or benefits available under Section 4.02 below: 
  

	 	 (i)
	 The Company will pay Executive her Base Salary, at the rate in effect prior to her termination of employment, in equal
bi-weekly installments on the regular payroll dates under the Company’s payroll practices applicable to Executive on the date of this Agreement for the Non-CIC Severance Period, except that (A) if the Release Consideration and Revocation
Period ends on or after December 15th of the calendar year of Executive’s Separation from Service, such installments that are otherwise
payable in the year of the Executive’s Separation from Service shall be paid in a lump sum on the first business day of the following calendar year or (B) if Executive is a Specified Employee, with respect to any amount payable by reason
of the Separation from Service that constitutes deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, such installments shall not commence until after the end of the six continuous month period following the date of
Executive’s Separation from Service, in which case, Executive shall be paid a lump-sum cash payment equal to the aggregate amount of missed installments during such period on the first day of the seventh month following the date of
Executive’s Separation from Service; 

  

	 	(ii)	The Company will pay Executive, at the time and in the amounts set forth immediately below, Executive’s (x) bonus amount earned under the Incentive Plan for that portion
of the Termination Performance Period ending on Executive’s date of Separation from Service and (y) the bonus amount under the Incentive Plan for the Non-CIC Severance Period. Such amounts shall be calculated and paid as follows:

  

	 	(A)	For the Termination Performance Period, the Company will pay Executive, at the time when payouts are made for that Performance Period, an amount equal to the Non-CIC Termination
Period Incentive Payout. 

  

	 	(B)	For the Post I Termination Performance Period, the Company will pay Executive, at the time when payouts are made for that Performance Period, an amount equal to the Capped Incentive
Payout for such Performance Period or, alternatively, in the event that the Non-CIC Severance Period ends within such Performance Period, the Capped Incentive Payout for such Performance Period prorated through the month in which the Non-CIC
Severance Period ends. 

  

 - 8 - 

	 	(C)	In the event that the Non-CIC Severance Period ends in the Post II Termination Performance Period, the Company will pay Executive, at the time when payouts are made for that
Performance Period, the Capped Incentive Payout for such Performance Period prorated through the month in which the Non-CIC Severance Period ends. 

 For purposes of Sections 4.01(ii) (B) and (C), in determining whether to count the month in which the Non-CIC Severance Period ends, if the end of the Non-CIC Severance Period falls on a date on or before the
15th of a month, such month shall not be counted but, if the end of the Non-CIC Severance Period falls on a date after the 15th of a month, such month shall be counted. 
 This Section 4.01(ii) assumes that Performance Periods under the Incentive Plan are 12 months in length. To the extent that Performance Periods are greater or lesser than 12 months, the above payout schedule
shall be appropriately adjusted by the Company, either by increasing or decreasing the number of Performance Periods in which severance payouts shall be made, such that (i) the final payment made to Executive under this Section 4.01(ii)
shall be made at the time payouts are made for the Performance Period in which the Non-CIC Severance Period ends, and (ii) Executive shall receive no less than nor no greater than the amount, using concepts and formulas consistent with those
provided in this Section 4.01(ii), that would have accrued and been payable to Executive under the Incentive Plan for the Non-CIC Severance Period had the Performance Periods remained 12 months in length. 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.01(ii) to the contrary, each such payment shall be
payable in accordance with the provisions of the Incentive Plan in the calendar year in which the Non-CIC Termination Period Incentive Payout or Capped Incentive Payout, as applicable, is determined, and in all events, not later than
December 31st of the year in which each such payout is determined. 
  

	 	(iii)	During the Non-CIC Severance Period, the Company will provide any employee benefit (including, but not limited to, executive medical, dental and life coverage, qualified or
nonqualified retirement benefits, and other benefits generally provided to Senior Officers other than country club membership dues and accrual of vacation) that Executive was receiving or was entitled to receive as of the date of Separation from
Service, except that long term-disability and short-term disability benefits shall cease on Executive’s date of Separation from Service, but if Executive becomes employed full-time during the Non-CIC Severance Period, Executive’s
entitlement to continued participation in any medical, dental or other group health plan sponsored by the Company shall immediately cease, except that Executive shall retain any rights to continue coverage under the COBRA continuation provisions of
such Company’s group health care plans by paying the applicable premium therefor. 

  

 - 9 - 

	 	(iv)	During the Non-CIC Severance Period, the Company will pay for outplacement counseling by a firm selected by the Company to continue until the earlier of such time as Executive
becomes re-employed or the end of the Non-CIC Severance Period; provided, however, that all such outplacement services must be completed, and all payments by the Company must be made, by December 31st of the second calendar year following the
calendar year in which Executive’s Separation from Service occurs. 

  

	 	(v)	The end of the Non-CIC Severance Period will be treated as Executive’s termination date for purposes of the Company’s stock option and restricted stock programs.

 In all events, Executive’s right to receive the Non-CIC Benefits shall cease immediately if Executive is re-employed by the Company or
an affiliate of the Company or if Executive breaches the Restrictive Covenants. In all cases, the Company’s rights under Section 5 shall continue. 
  

	4.02.	Payments on Certain Terminations in Connection with a Change in Control 

 If, during the Employment Term and within a CIC Protected Period, (a) the Company terminates Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason other than (x) Cause or (y) Executive’s
Total Disability, or (b) Executive terminates her employment with the Company for CIC Good Reason and in either event, such termination constitutes a Separation from Service, then Executive shall, subject to Section 2.05 and the other
applicable provisions of this Section 4, be entitled to the following payments and benefits (the “CIC Benefits”) in lieu of any other payments or benefits available under Section 4.01 above: 
  

	 	 (i)
	 In lieu of any further salary payments to Executive for periods after the Separation from Service date, the Company will
pay Executive her Base Salary, at the rate in effect prior to her termination of employment, in equal bi-weekly installments on the regular payroll dates under the Company’s payroll practices applicable to Executive on the date of this
Agreement for the CIC Severance Period, except that (A) if the Release Consideration and Revocation Period ends on or after December 15th
of the calendar year of Executive’s Separation from Service, such installments that are otherwise payable in the year of the Executive’s Separation from Service shall be paid in a lump sum on the first business day of the following
calendar year or (B) if Executive is a Specified Employee, with respect to any amount payable by reason of the Separation from Service that constitutes deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, such installments
shall not commence until after the end of the six continuous month period following the date of Executive’s Separation from Service, in which case, Executive shall be paid a lump-sum cash payment equal to the aggregate amount of missed
installments during such period on the first day of the seventh month following the date of Executive’s Separation from Service; 

  

 - 10 - 

	 	 
provided, however, to the extent that Executive terminates her employment because of CIC Good Reason and a reduction in Executive’s Base Salary has
occurred which constitutes CIC Good Reason under Section 6.09(ii) of this Agreement, Executive’s Base Salary for the purpose of this Section 4.02(i) shall be Executive’s Base Salary immediately prior to such Base Salary
reduction. 

  

	 	(ii)	In lieu of any payments under, and notwithstanding any provisions of the Incentive Plan, the Company will pay Executive, at the time and in the amounts set forth immediately below,
Executive’s (x) bonus amount earned under the Incentive Plan for that portion of the Termination Performance Period ending on Executive’s Separation from Service date and (y) a bonus amount equal to the amount Executive could
have received under the Incentive Plan for the CIC Severance Period. Such amounts shall be calculated and paid as follows: 

  

	 	(A)	For the Termination Performance Period, the Company will pay Executive, at the time when payouts are made for that Performance Period, an amount equal to the CIC Termination Period
Incentive Payout. 

  

	 	(B)	For the Post I Termination Performance Period, the Company will pay Executive, at the time when payouts are made for that Performance Period, an amount equal to Executive’s
Final Targeted Compensation or, alternatively, in the event that the CIC Severance Period ends within such Performance Period, Executive’s Final Targeted Compensation prorated through the month in which the CIC Severance Period ends.

  

	 	(C)	In the event that the CIC Severance Period ends during the Post II Termination Performance Period, the Company will pay Executive, at the time when payouts are made for that
Performance Period, Executive’s Final Targeted Compensation prorated through the month in which the CIC Severance Period ends. 

 For purposes of Sections 4.02(ii) (B) and (C), in determining whether to count the month in
which the CIC Severance Period ends, if the end of the CIC Severance Period falls on a date on or before the 15th of a month, such month shall not be counted but, if the end of the CIC Severance Period falls on a date after the 15th of a month, such month shall be counted. 
 Notwithstanding the above and for the purpose of determining the payout amounts under Sections 4.02(ii)(B) and (C), to the extent that Executive terminates her employment because of CIC Good Reason and a reduction in Executive’s
Targeted Compensation has occurred which constitutes CIC Good Reason under Section 6.09(vi) of this Agreement, Executive’s Final Targeted Compensation for purposes of Sections 4.02(ii)(B) and (C) shall be Executive’s Targeted
Compensation immediately prior to such Targeted Compensation reduction. 
  

 - 11 - 

 This Section 4.02(ii) assumes that Performance Periods under the Incentive Plan are 12 months in
length. To the extent that Performance Periods are greater or lesser than 12 months, the above payout schedule shall be appropriately adjusted by the Company, either by increasing or decreasing the number of Performance Periods in which severance
payouts shall be made, such that (i) the final payment made to Executive under this Section 4.02(ii) shall be made at the time payouts are made for the Performance Period in which the CIC Severance Period ends, and (ii) Executive
shall receive no less than nor no greater than the amount, using concepts and formulas consistent with those provided in this Section 4.02(ii), that would have accrued and been payable to Executive under the Incentive Plan for the CIC Severance
Period had the Performance Periods remained 12 months in length. 
 Notwithstanding
anything in this Section 4.02(ii) to the contrary, each such payment shall be payable in accordance with the provisions of the Incentive Plan in the calendar year in which the CIC Termination Period Incentive Payout or Capped Incentive Payout,
as applicable, is determined, and in all events, not later than December 31st of the year in which each such payout is determined. 

 

	 	(iii)	During the CIC Severance Period, the Company will, in such manner as is selected by the Company in its sole discretion, provide, arrange to provide, or reimburse Executive for any
employee benefit (including, but not limited to, executive medical, dental and life coverage, qualified or nonqualified retirement benefits, and other benefits generally provided to Senior Officers other than country club membership dues and accrual
of vacation) that Executive was receiving or was entitled to receive as of the date of Separation from Service, except that long-term disability and short-term disability benefits shall cease on Executive’s date of Separation from Service, but
if Executive becomes employed full-time during the CIC Severance Period, Executive’s entitlement to continued participation in any medical, dental or other group health plan sponsored by the Company shall immediately cease, except that
Executive shall retain any rights to continue coverage under the COBRA continuation provisions of the Company’s group health care plans by paying the applicable premium therefor. 

  

	 	(iv)	During the CIC Severance Period, the Company will pay for outplacement counseling by a firm selected by the Company to continue until the earlier of such time as Executive becomes
re-employed or the end of the CIC Severance Period; provided, however, that all such outplacement services must be completed, and all payments by the Company must be made, by December 31st of the second calendar year following the calendar year
in which Executive’s Separation from Service occurs. 

  

	 	(v)	The end of the CIC Severance Period will be treated as Executive’s termination date for purposes of the Company’s stock option and restricted stock programs.

 In all events, Executive’s right to receive the CIC Benefits shall cease immediately if Executive is re-employed by the
Company or an affiliate of the Company or if Executive breaches any of the Restrictive Covenants. In all cases, the Company’s rights under Section 5 shall continue.

	4.03.	Other Provisions Regarding Payments and Benefits 

  

	(a)	No Mitigation; No Offset 

 In the event of any termination of
employment resulting in payments under this Section 4, Executive need not seek other employment and, except as expressly provided herein, there shall be no offset against amounts due to Executive under this Agreement on account of any

	(b)	Settlement and Release 

 The payments and benefits provided for
hereunder shall be in full settlement and satisfaction of all of Executive’s claims and demands relating to or arising out of Executive’s employment with the Company or the termination thereof; provided, however, such settlement and

Severance Agreement or any other Company separation plans or policies or any other similar arrangement of the Company providing benefits upon termination of employment. If the Executive is a Participant in, and is entitled to severance benefits
under, the CIC Severance Plan, severance compensation and benefits payable under Section 4.01 or 4.02 of this Agreement, as applicable, will be reduced dollar for dollar (but not below zero) by severance compensation and benefits payable to
Executive under the CIC Severance Plan, if any, it being the intent that the Executive receive the greatest of the severance compensation and benefits under the CIC Severance Plan or this Agreement.

 Executive consents to

any violation of Sections 3.02 through 3.07 (the “Restrictive Covenants”). Executive acknowledges that the Company would be irreparably injured by a violation of the Restrictive Covenants, and she agrees that the Company, in
addition to any other remedies available to it for any breach or threatened breach, shall be entitled to a preliminary or permanent injunction, temporary restraining order, or other equitable relief, restraining Executive from any actual or
threatened breach of the Restrictive Covenants. If a bond is required to be posted in order for the Company to secure an injunction or other equitable remedy, the parties agree that the bond need not be more than a nominal sum. THE COMPANY AND
EXECUTIVE VOLUNTARILY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY AND CONSENT TO A BENCH TRIAL OF ALL DISPUTES ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. 
 If Executive
materially breaches any of the Restrictive Covenants or if any of those provisions are held to be unenforceable against Executive, Executive shall return any compensation or benefits paid pursuant to Section 4. This remedy is a return of
consideration and shall be in addition to any other remedies. During Executive’s employment with the Company, the Committee shall determine whether Executive has materially breached the Restrictive Covenants, and the Committee’s

 - 26 - 

 
may be assigned or transferred to any subsidiary of Sprint or pursuant to a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the continuing entity, or the
sale or liquidation of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, but only if the assignee or transferee becomes the successor to all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and assumes the liabilities, obligations, and duties
of the Company, as contained in this Agreement, either contractually or as a matter of law. The Company further agrees that, in the event of a sale of assets or liquidation as described in the preceding sentence, it will take whatever action it
legally can in order to cause the assignee or transferee to expressly assume the liabilities, obligations, and duties of the Company hereunder. 
 No rights
or obligations of Executive under this Agreement may be assigned or transferred by Executive other than her rights to compensation and benefits, which may be transferred only in connection with Executive’s estate planning objectives or by will
or operation of law. If Executive should die or become disabled while any amount is owed but unpaid to Executive hereunder, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid to Executive’s legal guardian or to her devisee,

	8.	Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. 

 With respect to reimbursements or in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement: (a) the Company will not

period prescribed by a specific provision of this Agreement) shall be made not later than December 31st of the year following the year in which
the Executive incurs the expense, and (c) in no event will the amount of expenses so reimbursed, or in-kind benefits provided, by the Company in one year affect the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be
provided, in any other taxable year. Each payment, reimbursement or in-kind benefit made pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall be regarded as a separate payment and not one of a series of payments for purposes of Section 409A of
the Code. It is intended that any amounts payable under this Agreement and the Company’s and the Executive’s exercise of authority or discretion hereunder shall comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and the treasury
regulations relating thereto so as not to subject the Executive to the payment of the additional tax, interest and any tax penalty which may be imposed under Section 409A of the Code. In furtherance of this interest, to the extent that any
provision hereof would result in the Executive being subject to payment of the additional tax, interest and tax penalty under Code Section 409A, the parties agree to amend this Agreement in order to bring this Agreement into compliance with
Code Section 409A; and thereafter interpret its provisions in a manner that complies with Section 409A of the Code. Reference to Section 409A of the Code is to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and
will also include any proposed, temporary or final regulations, or any other guidance, promulgated with respect to such Section by the U.S. Department of Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no particular tax
result for the Executive with respect to any income recognized by the Executive in connection with the Agreement is guaranteed, and the Executive shall be responsible for any taxes, penalties and interest imposed on her under or as a result of
Section 409A of the Code in connection with the Agreement.

in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Kansas, without regard to the conflict of law provisions of any state. 
  

	11.	Tax Withholding 

 All payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall
be subject to applicable federal, state and local income and other withholding taxes, and to other applicable withholdings or deductions elected by Executive or otherwise required by law or judicial process. 
  

	12.	Severability 

 The parties intend the various provisions of this
Agreement to be severable and to constitute independent and distinct binding obligations. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, in whole or in part, it shall not affect or impair the
validity of any other provision or part of this Agreement, and the provision or part shall be deemed modified to the minimum extent required to permit enforcement. Upon such a determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or
incapable of being enforced, the court or arbitrator, as applicable, shall have the authority to so modify the provision or term. If the provision or term is not modified by the court or arbitrator, the parties must negotiate in good faith to modify
this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the provisions of this Agreement are preserved to the greatest extent possible. 
  

	13.	Waiver of Breach 

 No waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any
provision of this Agreement by any other party, or of compliance with any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party, will operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach by the other party of any
similar or dissimilar provisions and conditions at the same or any prior or subsequent time. The failure of either party to take any action by reason of such breach will not deprive the party of the right to take action at any time while the breach
continues.

 Notices and all other communications provided for in this
Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered personally or sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or prepaid overnight courier to the parties at the addresses set forth below or at such other
