                            INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

     This Agreement, dated as of the ____ day of _____________, 2002 between
Northrop Grumman Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Corporation"), and
NAME IN BOLD CAPS ("Indemnitee").
-----------------

     WHEREAS, it has come to the attention of the Board of Directors of the
Corporation (the "Board") that in certain circumstances highly competent persons
have recently become more reluctant to serve publicly-held corporations as
directors, officers or in other capacities unless they are provided with
adequate protection from the risk of liability due to claims and actions against
them arising out of their service to and activities on behalf of such
corporations; and

     WHEREAS, it has also come to the attention of the Board that, in this
regard, the current difficulty of obtaining adequate liability insurance and the
uncertainties related to indemnification for directors and officers have
increased the difficulty of attracting and retaining such highly competent
persons; and

     WHEREAS, the Board has determined that the inability to attract and retain
such highly competent persons is detrimental to the best interests of the
Corporation and its stockholders and that persons serving the Corporation should
be assured they will have adequate protection from certain liabilities; and

     WHEREAS, it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Corporation to
obligate itself contractually to indemnify such persons to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, so that such persons will serve or continue to
serve the Corporation, free from undue concern that they will not be adequately
indemnified; and

     WHEREAS, the Corporation's stockholders have approved the form of this
Agreement and have authorized the Corporation to enter into this Agreement with
certain persons, including Indemnitee; and

     WHEREAS, this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of any rights
granted under the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, or Article V
of the Bylaws of the Corporation, and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto,
and shall not be deemed to be a substitute therefor nor to diminish or abrogate
any rights of Indemnitee thereunder; and

     WHEREAS, Indemnitee is willing to serve the Corporation in the capacity or
capacities in which he serves, continue so to serve and, if appropriate, to take
on additional service for or on behalf of the Corporation on the condition that
he be indemnified according to the terms of this Agreement;

                                        1

at the beginning of such period constituted the Board (including for this

                 --------------------------
12(c), the Corporation shall indemnify, and advance Expenses to, Indemnitee as
provided in this Agreement to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law in
effect on the date hereof and to such greater extent as applicable law may
thereafter from time to time permit, whether the actions or omissions (or
alleged actions or omissions) of Indemnitee giving rise to such indemnification

Effective Date. The rights of Indemnitee provided under the preceding sentence
shall include, but shall not be limited to, the rights set forth in the other

Pursuant to this Section, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against Expenses,
judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection with any such

this Section, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against Expenses actually and
reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection with any such
Proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to
be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no indemnification against such Expenses shall be made in respect
of any claim, issue or matter in any such Proceeding as to which Indemnitee
shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation if applicable law
prohibits such indemnification; provided, however, that if applicable law so
                                --------  -------
permits, indemnification against Expenses shall nevertheless be made by the
Corporation in such event if, and only to the extent that, the Court of Chancery
of the State of Delaware, or the court in which such Proceeding shall have been
brought or is pending, shall so determine.

Status, a party to and is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any
Proceeding, he shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably
incurred by him or on his behalf in connection therewith. If Indemnitee is not
wholly successful in such Proceeding but is successful, on the merits or
otherwise, as to one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters in such
Proceeding, the Corporation shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses
actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection with each
successfully resolved claim, issue or matter. For the purposes of this Section
and without limiting the foregoing, the termination of any claim, issue or
matter in any such Proceeding by dismissal, with or without prejudice, shall be
deemed to be a successful result as to such claim, issue or matter.

     Section 7.  Indemnification for Expenses of a Witness. Notwithstanding any
                 ------------------------------------------
other provision of this Agreement (other than Section 12(c)), to the extent that
Indemnitee is, by reason of his Corporate Status, a witness in any Proceeding,
he shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by
him or on his behalf in connection therewith.

     Section 8.  Advancement of Expenses. The Corporation shall advance all
                 ------------------------
Expenses incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any
Proceeding within twenty days after the receipt by the Corporation of a
statement or statements from Indemnitee requesting such advance or advances from
time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of such Proceeding.
Such statement or statements shall reasonably evidence the Expenses incurred by
Indemnitee and shall include or be preceded or accompanied by an undertaking by
or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay any Expenses advanced if it shall ultimately
be determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified against such
Expenses.

     Section 9.  Procedure for Determination of Entitlement to Indemnification.
                 --------------------------------------------------------------

     (a)  To obtain indemnification under this Agreement in connection with any
Proceeding, and for the duration thereof, Indemnitee shall submit to the
Corporation a written request, including

                                        4

<PAGE>

therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably
available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to
what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification. The Secretary of the
Corporation shall, promptly upon receipt of any such request for
indemnification, advise the Board in writing that Indemnitee has requested
indemnification.

     (b)  Upon written request by Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to
Section 9(a), a determination, if required by applicable law, with respect to
Indemnitee's entitlement thereto shall be made in such case: (i) if a Change in
Control shall have occurred, by Independent Counsel (unless Indemnitee shall
request that such determination be made by the Board or the stockholders, in
which case in the manner provided for in clause (ii) or (iii) of this Section
9(b) in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to
Indemnitee; (ii) if a Change of Control shall not have occurred, (A) by the
Board by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of Disinterested Directors, or
(B) if a quorum of the Board consisting of Disinterested Directors is not
obtainable, or even if such quorum is obtainable, if such quorum of
Disinterested Directors so directs, either (x) by Independent Counsel in a
written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee,
or (y) by the stockholders of the Corporation, as determined by such quorum of
Disinterested Directors, or a quorum of the Board, as the case may be; or (iii)
if necessary, as provided in Section 10(b). If it is so determined that
Indemnitee is entitled to Indemnification, payment to Indemnitee shall be made
within ten days after such determination. Indemnitee shall cooperate with the
person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to Indemnitee's
entitlement to indemnification, including without limitation providing to such
person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or
information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and
which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such
determination. Any costs or expenses (including attorneys' fees and
disbursements) incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons
or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Corporation
(irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee's entitlement to
indemnification) and the Corporation hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold
Indemnitee harmless therefrom.

     (c)  If required, Independent Counsel shall be selected as follows: (i) if
a Change of Control shall not have occurred, Independent Counsel shall be
selected by the Board, and the Corporation shall give written notice to
Indemnitee advising him of the identity of Independent Counsel so selected; or
(ii) if a Change of Control shall have occurred, Independent Counsel shall be
selected by Indemnitee (unless Indemnitee shall request that such selection be
made by the Board, in which event (i) shall apply), and Indemnitee shall give
written notice to the Corporation advising it of the identity of Independent
Counsel so selected. In either event, Indemnitee or the Corporation, as the case
may be, may, within seven days after such written notice of selection shall have
been given, deliver to the Corporation or to Indemnitee, as the case may be, a
written objection to such selection. Such objection may be asserted only on the
ground that Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements of
"Independent Counsel" as defined in Section 1, and the objection shall set forth
with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. If such written
objection is made, Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent
Counsel unless and until a court has determined that such objection is without
merit. If, within twenty days after submission by

                                        5

<PAGE>

Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 9(a), no
Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected to, either the
Corporation or Indemnitee may petition the Court of Chancery of the State of
Delaware, or any other court of competent jurisdiction, for resolution of any
objection which shall have been made by the Corporation or Indemnitee to the
other's selection of Independent Counsel and/or for appointment as Independent
Counsel of a person selected by such court or by such other person as such court
shall designate, and the person with respect to whom an objection is so resolved
or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under Section 9(b).
The Corporation shall pay any and all reasonable fees and expenses of
Independent Counsel incurred by such Independent Counsel in connection with its
actions pursuant to this Agreement, and the Corporation shall pay all reasonable
fees and expenses incident to the procedures of this Section 9(c), regardless of
the manner in which such Independent Counsel was selected or appointed. Upon the
due commencement date of any judicial proceeding pursuant to Section 11(a)(iii),
Independent Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any further
responsibility in such capacity (subject to the applicable standards of
professional conduct then prevailing).

     Section 10.  Presumptions and Effects of Certain Proceedings.
                  ------------------------------------------------

     (a)  In making a determination with respect to entitlement to
indemnification hereunder, the person, persons or entity making such
determination shall presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under
this Agreement if Indemnitee has submitted a request for indemnification in
accordance with Section 9(a), and the Corporation shall have the burden of proof
to overcome that presumption in connection with the making by any person,
persons or entity of any determination contrary to the presumption.

     (b)  If the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under Section 9
to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification shall not have
made a determination within 60 days after receipt by the Corporation of the
request therefor, the requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification
shall be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee shall be entitled to such
indemnification, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or
an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee's statement not
materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or
(ii) prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law; provided,
                                                               ---------
however, that such 60-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to
-------
exceed an additional 30 days, if the person, persons or entity making the
determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification in good faith
require(s) such additional time for the obtaining or evaluating of documentation
and/or information relating thereto; and provided, further, that the foregoing
                                         -----------------
provisions of this Section 10(b) shall not apply (i) if the determination of
entitlement to indemnification is to be made by the stockholders pursuant to
Section 9(b) and if (A) within fifteen days after receipt by the Corporation of
the request for such determination, the Board has resolved to submit such
determination to the stockholders for their consideration at an Annual Meeting
thereof to be held within 75 days after such receipt and such determination is
made thereat, or (B) a special meeting of stockholders is called as provided in
the Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation and under applicable law within
30 days after such receipt for the purpose of making

                                        6

<PAGE>

such determination (which 30-day period may be extended for reasonable periods
not to exceed an additional 30 days in order to ensure compliance with all
applicable laws), such meeting is held for such purpose within 60 days after
having been so called and such determination is made thereat, it being
understood that provisions of this Agreement shall not obligate the Corporation
to call such a special meeting, or (ii) if the determination of entitlement to
indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 9(b).

     (c) The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter
therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo
                                                                         ----
contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided
----------
in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect the right of Indemnitee to
indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good
faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the Corporation or, with respect to any criminal
Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was
unlawful.

     Section 11. Remedies of Indemnitee.
                 -----------------------

     (a) In the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 9
that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, (ii)
advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant to Section 8, (iii) the

Corporation of the request for indemnification, (iv) payment of indemnification
is not made pursuant to Section 7 within ten days after receipt by the
Corporation of a written request therefor, or (v) payment of indemnification is
not made within ten days after a determination has been made that Indemnitee is
entitled to indemnification or such determination is deemed to have been made
pursuant to Section 9 or 10, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication in
an appropriate court of the State of Delaware, or in any other court of
competent jurisdiction, of his entitlement to such indemnification or
advancement of Expenses. The Corporation shall not oppose Indemnitee's right to
seek any such adjudication.

     (b) In the event that a determination shall have been made pursuant to
Section 9 that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, any judicial
proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section shall be conducted in all respects
as a de novo trial on the merits and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by
     -------
reason of that adverse determination. In any judicial proceeding commenced
pursuant to this Section, the Corporation shall have the burden of proving that
Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses, as the
case may be.

     (c) If a determination shall have been made or deemed to have been made
pursuant to Section 9 or 10 that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the
Corporation shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding
commenced pursuant to this Section, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a
material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee's
statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for

                                        7

<PAGE>

indemnification, or (ii) prohibition of such indemnification under applicable
law.

     (d) The Corporation shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial
proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section that the procedures and
presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall
stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator that the Corporation
is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement.

     (e) In the event that Indemnitee, pursuant to this Section, seeks a
judicial adjudication of his rights under, or to recover damages for breach of,
this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to recover from the Corporation,
and shall be indemnified by the Corporation against, any and all expenses (of
the kinds described in the definition of Expenses) actually and reasonably
incurred by him in such judicial adjudication, but only if he prevails therein.
If it shall be determined in such judicial adjudication that Indemnitee is
entitled to receive part but not all of the indemnification or advancement of
expenses sought, the expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such
judicial adjudication shall be appropriately prorated.

policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers, employees,
agents or fiduciaries of the Corporation or of any other corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise
which such person serves at the request of the Corporation, Indemnitee shall be
covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms to the
maximum extent of the coverage available for any such director, officer,
employee or agent under such policy or policies.

     (c) If any policy referred to in Section 12(b) (or any other policy which
may provide coverage to Indemnitee) contains a provision which eliminates
coverage under such policy to the extent of the Corporation's contractual
obligations of indemnification, the Corporation shall have no obligations
hereunder to the extent that Indemnitee shall have been afforded coverage under
such policy.

     (d) In the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Corporation shall
be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of
Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary
to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to

                               BOARD OF DIRECTORS
                POLICY STATEMENT REGARDING TRACKING STOCK MATTERS

1.   General Policy. It is the policy of the Sprint Board:

     (i) that all material matters as to which the holders of the FON Stock and
the holders of the PCS Stock may have potentially divergent interests shall be
resolved in a manner that the Sprint Board determines to be in the best
interests of Sprint and all of its common stockholders after giving fair
consideration to the potentially divergent interests and all other relevant
interests of the holders of the separate classes of Sprint's common stock,

     (ii) that a process of fair dealing shall govern the relationship between
the FON Group and the PCS Group and the means by which the terms of any material
transaction between them will be determined, and

     (iii) that the Sprint Board will not recommend any transaction that would
result in a Change of Control of Sprint or a Strategic Merger without a prior
determination that the terms of such transaction are fair to holders of PCS
Stock, taken as a separate class, and holders of FON Stock, taken as a separate
class.

2.   Delegation of Authority. In administering this policy, the Sprint Board
may, at its option, delegate its authority to the Capital Stock Committee.

3.   Role of the Capital Stock Committee with Respect to these Policies. The
Capital Stock Committee of the Sprint Board shall have authority to interpret,
make determinations under, and oversee the implementation of this policy. The
Capital Stock Committee shall have the authority to engage the services of
accountants, appraisers, attorneys and other service providers to assist it in
discharging its duties.

4.   Fiduciary Obligations. In making any and all determinations in connection
with this policy, either directly or by appropriate delegation of authority, the
members of the Sprint Board and the Capital Stock Committee shall act in a
fiduciary capacity and pursuant to legal guidance concerning their respective
obligations under applicable law.

5.   Dividend Policy.

     5.1. Periodic Review of Dividend Policy.

     The Sprint Board shall periodically consider appropriate dividend policies
and practices relating to any future dividends on the FON Stock and the PCS
Stock. The Sprint Board does not expect to declare any dividends on the PCS
Stock in the foreseeable future.

<PAGE>

(i) the funds of Sprint legally available therefor and (ii) the FON Group
Available Dividend Amount.

     5.3. Limitations on PCS Stock Dividends.

     Dividends on PCS Stock may be declared and paid only out of the lesser of

6.   Prohibited Transactions: Limitations on Acquisition of Series 1 PCS Stock.

     Sprint shall not:

     (i)  engage in any transactions, including mergers, consolidations,
recapitalizations, or similar transactions that have the effect of circumventing
the rights of holders of PCS Stock under either (A) Section 7.1 (D) of ARTICLE
SIXTH or (B) the proviso in Section 7.2 of ARTICLE SIXTH limiting redemptions
contemplated by such Section 7.2 from occurring for a two-year period unless
approved by the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the outstanding
shares of PCS Stock. This paragraph (i) shall not apply to any transaction
involving a third party, the terms of which have been determined in advance by
either the Sprint Board or the Capital Stock Committee to be fair to holders of
PCS Stock, taken as a separate class, and holders of FON Stock, taken as a
separate class; or

     (ii) acquire a number of shares of Series 1 PCS Stock such that,
immediately after the acquisition, the number of shares of Series 1 PCS Stock
outstanding is less than 80% of the sum of (a) the number of shares of Series 1
PCS Stock issued to the public in the Recapitalization and (b) the number of
shares of Series 1 PCS Stock issued to the public in any primary initial public
offering of Series 1 PCS Stock that is completed prior to the Reference Date,
all such numbers being appropriately adjusted for any stock split, stock
dividend, recapitalization or similar transaction that affects the number of
shares of Series 1 PCS Stock outstanding.

7.   Intergroup Interests.

     Any inter-group transaction that results in a change in the size of any
Intergroup Interest held by the FON Group or any Other Group in the PCS Group
shall be subject to the review and approval of the Capital Stock Committee. If
such review occurs before such transaction is undertaken and such transaction is
disapproved, the transaction will not proceed. If such review occurs after such
transaction is undertaken and such transaction is disapproved, appropriate
actions will be taken to reinstate the pre-existing circumstances to the fullest
extent practicable. The PCS Group shall not acquire an Intergroup Interest in
the FON Group or in any Other Group.

8.   Allocation of Business Opportunities and Operations. Except as provided in
Section 9 below, the Sprint Board may allocate business opportunities and
operations to the FON Group,

offering or providing (i) Domestic Wireless Mobile Telephony Services and (ii)
any other Domestic PCS Services shall be allocated to the PCS Group, and all
acquisitions of Domestic PCS Licenses shall be allocated to the PCS Group. To
the extent such businesses or licenses are acquired by the FON Group, the Sprint
Board shall arrange for an allocation or transfer of such assets to the PCS
Group as soon as reasonably practicable at a price equivalent to the fair market
value of such businesses or licenses. In no event shall such allocation or
transfer be required at a time that would adversely affect the availability of
pooling-of-interests accounting.

     This Section 9 does not preclude the formation of commercially reasonable
contracts or other arrangements between the PCS Group and the FON Group or any
Other Group for sales agency, resale, or any other arrangement with respect to
businesses conducted by either the FON Group or the PCS Group.

10.  Income Tax Matters.

     Federal and state income taxes determined on a consolidated, combined, or
unitary basis shall be allocated, and resulting tax sharing payments shall be

December 31, 2001 and neither the Tax Sharing Agreement nor this Section 10
shall be modified or rescinded, nor shall any exception be made to this Section
10, with respect to any tax year ending on or before December 31, 2001.

     For tax years ending after December 31, 2001, federal and state income
taxes determined on a consolidated, combined or unitary basis shall be

parties (including the public markets) as a direct or indirect wholly-owned
subsidiary of Sprint, but without the benefit of any guaranty by Sprint or any
member of the FON Group. This policy contemplates that such loans will be made
on the

                                       -3-

           Transfers of assets from the FON Group to the PCS Group that are
designated by the Sprint Board, consistent with other provisions of this policy,
to be treated as an equity contribution by the FON Group to the PCS Group shall
result in an increase in the Intergroup Interest of the Sprint FON Group in the
Sprint PCS Group in accordance with paragraph (C) of the definition of "Number
Of Shares Issuable With Respect To The FON Group Intergroup Interest" in ARTICLE
SIXTH, Section 10.

           Transfers of assets from the PCS Group to the FON Group may not be
treated as creating an Intergroup Interest of the PCS Group in the FON Group,
but may be treated as a reduction of any existing Intergroup Interest of the FON
Group in the PCS Group in accordance with Paragraph (B) of the definition of
"Number Of Shares Issuable With Respect To The FON Group Intergroup Interest" in
ARTICLE SIXTH, Section 10, but not below zero.

           11.2.2. Other Transfers.

           All other transfers of assets between one Group (the "Transferor
Group") and another Group (the "Transferee Group"), not designated by the Sprint
Board as equity transfers under Section 11.2.1 and not pursuant to a contract
for the provision of goods or services between the Groups, shall be accompanied
by (i) the transfer by the Transferee Group to the Transferor Group of other
assets, (ii) the creation of inter-group debt owed by the Transferee Group to
the Transferor Group, or (iii) the reduction of inter-group debt owed by the
Transferor Group to the Transferee Group, in each case in an amount having a
fair market value, in the judgment of the Sprint Board, equivalent to the fair
market value of the assets transferred to the Transferee Group by the Transferor
Group in such transaction.

           11.2.3. Limitation on Acquisition of PCS Group Assets by the FON
                   Group.

           Neither the FON Group nor any Other Group shall acquire in one
transaction or in a series of related transactions a significant portion of the
assets of the PCS Group without receiving the consent by the holders of a
majority of the outstanding shares of PCS Stock, voting as a separate class, and
the consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of FON Stock,
or the stock of such Other Group, as the case may be, voting as a separate
class. For purposes of this Section 11.2.3, "significant portion of the assets
of the PCS Group" means more than 33% of the assets of the PCS Group, based on
the fair market value of the assets, both tangible and intangible, of the PCS
Group as of the time that the proposed transaction is approved by the Sprint
Board.

Other Group and the PCS Group shall be on commercially reasonable terms and
shall be subject to the review and approval of the Capital Stock Committee. If
such review occurs before such transaction is undertaken and such transaction is
disapproved, the transaction will not proceed. If such review occurs after such
transaction is undertaken and such transaction is disapproved, appropriate
actions will be taken to reinstate the pre-existing circumstances to the fullest
extent practicable.

           11.3.2. Long Distance Pricing.

or inter-calling area) by the FON Group to the PCS Group for purposes of
enabling PCS Group customers to complete wireless calls (whether billed
separately or as part of other charges) shall be at the best price offered by
the FON Group to third parties in similar situations when taking into account
all relevant factors (e.g., volume, peak/off-peak usage, length of commitment).
The PCS Group shall be permitted to acquire private line capacity from the FON
Group to self-provision long distance services to the extent that such
self-provisioning can be accomplished on terms more favorable to the PCS Group,
