Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of T-Mobile US, Inc. (“T-Mobile” or the “Company”) include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those for the full year. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the balances and results of operations of T-Mobile and its consolidated subsidiaries. T-Mobile consolidates all majority-owned subsidiaries over which it exercises control, as well as variable interest entities (“VIE”) where it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary and VIEs which cannot be deconsolidated. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The standard requires entities to recognize revenue through the application of a five-step model, which includes identification of the contract, identification of the performance obligations, determination of the transaction price, allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognition of revenue as the entity satisfies the performance obligations. The standard will become effective for T-Mobile beginning January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the guidance to determine the potential impact on T-Mobile’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, and financial statement disclosures.

Note 2 – Acquisitions and Other Transactions

Spectrum License Transactions

In January 2014, T-Mobile entered into agreements with Verizon Communications Inc. (“Verizon”) for the acquisition of 700 MHz A-Block spectrum licenses for ~~approximately $2.4 billion in~~ cash and the transfer of certain Advanced Wireless ~~Services spectrum~~Service (“~~AWS spectrum”~~AWS”) and Personal Communications Service (“PCS”) spectrum (“PCS spectrum”). The acquired spectrum covers more than 150 million people in 23 major metropolitan markets, comprising approximately 50 percent of the U.S. population or 70 percent of T-Mobile’s existing customer base. A non-cash gain is expected to be recognized uponlicenses. Upon closing of the ~~transaction. See~~ ~~Note 8 – Subsequent Events~~transaction in April 2014, T-Mobile paid Verizon $2.4 billion in cash and transferred certain AWS and PCS spectrum licenses. T-Mobile recorded the 700 MHz A-Block spectrum licenses received at their fair value of $3.7 billion. In addition, T-Mobile recognized a non-cash gain of $517 million included in other, net for ~~further information regarding~~ the ~~closing of the transaction.~~three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

In November 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with Verizon to exchange certain AWS ~~spectrum~~ and PCS ~~spectrum. A non-cash gain is expected to be recognized upon close of the transaction. See~~ ~~Note 8 – Subsequent Events~~ ~~for further information regarding the~~spectrum licenses. Upon closing of the ~~transaction.~~transaction in

~~Spectrum~~April 2014, T-Mobile transferred certain AWS and PCS spectrum licenses to ~~be transferred under various agreements are~~Verizon. T-Mobile recorded the AWS and PCS spectrum licenses received at their fair value of $792 million. In addition, T-Mobile recognized a non-cash gain of $214 million included in ~~assets held~~other, net for ~~sale at their carrying value of $1.4 billion~~the three and ~~$614 million as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.~~six months ended June 30, 2014.

Factoring Arrangement

Transaction Overview

In February 2014, T-Mobile entered into a two-year factoring arrangement to sell certain service accounts receivable on a revolving basis, subject to a maximum funding limit of $500 million. Sales of receivables occur daily and are settled on a monthly basis. The receivables consist of service charges currently due from customers and are short-term in nature. In connection with the factoring arrangement, the Company formed a ~~wholly owned~~wholly-owned subsidiary, ~~and~~which qualifies as a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity (“Factoring SPE”). Pursuant to the factoring arrangement, certain subsidiaries of T-Mobile ~~will~~ transfer selected receivables to the Factoring SPE. The Factoring SPE ~~will~~ then ~~sell~~sells the receivables to an unaffiliated entity (“Factoring VIE”), which was established to facilitate the sale of ownership interest in the receivables to certain third parties.

Table of Contents

Variable Interest Entity

The Company determined the Factoring VIE is a VIE as it lacks sufficient equity to finance its activities. The Company has a variable interest in the Factoring VIE, but is not the primary beneficiary as it lacks the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the Factoring VIE’s economic performance. As the Company has determined it is not the primary beneficiary and does not hold any equity interest, the results of the Factoring VIE are not consolidated into the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~Sale~~Sales of Receivables

The sales of receivables through the factoring arrangement are treated as sales of financial assets. Upon sale, T-Mobile derecognizes the receivables, as well as the related allowances, and recognizes the net proceeds in cash provided by operating activities. ~~Any resulting gains or losses from the sale of receivables, as well as factoring fees, are recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses.~~

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, T-Mobile derecognized net receivables of $~~546~~611 million ~~upon sale~~ through the factoring arrangement. For the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, T-Mobile received net cash proceeds of ~~$434 million~~.$468 million. The proceeds were net of a receivable for the remainder of the purchase price (“deferred purchase price”), which is received from collections on the service receivables. The deferred purchase price is classified as a trading security and carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses from changes in fair value included in selling, general and administrative expense. The fair value of the deferred purchase price iswas determined based on a discounted cash flow model which uses unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs), including customer default rates. Due to the short-term nature of the underlying financial assets, the carrying value approximated fair value. ~~Other~~As of June 30, 2014, other current assets related to the factoring arrangement, which were held by the Factoring SPE and primarily consisted of the deferred purchase price, were ~~$99~~$236 million. In addition, T-Mobile recognized an obligation to the Factoring VIE primarily related to the timing of settlements for the sales of receivables through the factoring arrangement. As of June 30, 2014, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and other current liabilities related to the factoring arrangement, which were held by the Factoring SPE, were $101 million ~~as of~~ ~~March 31, 2014~~. and $23 million, respectively.

~~For~~Net expenses resulting from the ~~three months ended March 31, 2014,~~sales of receivables are recognized in selling, general and administrative expense. Prior to the sales of receivables, T-Mobile ~~recognized a net~~recognizes impairment charges, rather than bad debt expense, ~~which included~~to reduce the receivables to fair value for estimated losses resulting from uncollectible balances. Net expenses also include any resulting gains or losses from the ~~sale~~sales of receivables, ~~factoring fees~~unrealized gains and ~~unrealized~~ losses related to the deferred purchase price, and factoring fees. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014, T-Mobile recognized net expenses of ~~$13~~$77 million ~~included in selling, general~~ and ~~administrative expenses.~~$90 million, respectively.

Continuing Involvement

T-Mobile has continuing involvement with the sold receivables as it services the receivables and is required to repurchase certain receivables, including aged receivables and receivables where ~~write off~~write-off is imminent, pursuant to the factoring arrangement. T-Mobile will continue to service the customer and their related receivables, including facilitating customer payment collection, in exchange for a monthly servicing fee. As the receivables are sold on a revolving basis, the customer payment collections are reinvested in new receivable sales. While servicing the receivables the same policies and procedures are applied to the sold receivables that apply to owned receivables, and T-Mobile continues to maintain normal relationships with its customers.

In addition, T-Mobile has continuing involvement related to the sold receivables as it may be responsible for absorbing additional credit losses pursuant to the agreement. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss related to the involvement with the Factoring VIE was $~~279~~440 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014. The maximum exposure to loss, which is required disclosure under GAAP, represents an estimated loss that would be incurred under severe, hypothetical circumstances whereby the Company would not receive the portion of the contractual proceeds withheld by the Factoring VIE and would also be required to repurchase the maximum amount of receivables pursuant to the agreement without consideration for any recovery. As T-Mobile believes the probability of these circumstances occurring is very remote, the maximum exposure to loss is not an indication of the Company’s expected loss.

Short-term Debt

In June 2014, the Company entered into a handset financing arrangement with affiliates of Deutsche Bank AG which allows for up to $108 million in borrowings. Under the arrangement, the Company can effectively extend payment terms for invoices payable to certain handset vendors. The interest rate on the financing arrangement will be determined based on LIBOR plus a specified margin per the arrangement. Obligations under the financing arrangement will be included in short-term debt. As of June 30, 2014, there was no outstanding balance.

Table of Contents

Transaction with MetroPCS

On April 30, 2013, the business combination involving T-Mobile USA, Inc. (“T-Mobile USA”) and MetroPCS Communications, Inc. (“MetroPCS”) was completed. In connection with the business combination, MetroPCS acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of T-Mobile USA beneficially owned by Deutsche Telekom AG (“Deutsche Telekom”) in consideration for the issuance of shares of common stock representing a majority of the fully diluted shares of the combined company. MetroPCS was subsequently renamed T-Mobile US, Inc. and is the consolidated parent of the Company’s subsidiaries, including T-Mobile USA. The business combination was accounted for as a reverse acquisition with T-Mobile USA as the accounting acquirer. Accordingly, T-Mobile USA’s historical financial statements became the historical financial statements of the combined company. The common shares outstanding and earnings (loss) per share presented for periods up to April 30, 2013 reflect the common shares issued to T-Mobile Global Holding GmbH, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom, in connection with the reverse acquisition. Additionally, the acquired assets and liabilities of MetroPCS were included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of April 30, 2013 and the results of its operations and cash flows are included in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows for periods beginning after May 1, 2013.

Note 3 – Equipment Installment Plan Receivables

T-Mobile offers certain retail customers the option to pay for their devices and other purchases in installments over a period of up to 24 months using an Equipment Installment Plan (“EIP”). The carrying values of EIP receivables approximate fair value as the receivables are recorded at their present value, net of the deferred interest and additional allowance for credit losses. At the time of sale, the Company imputes interest, inclusive of credit risk, on the EIP receivables and records the deferred interest as a reduction to equipment sales and as an allowance against the related accounts receivable. Interest income is recognized over the financed installment term.

The following table summarizes the EIP receivables:


(in millions)	March 31, 2014			December 31, 2013			June 30, 2014			December 31, 2013

EIP receivables, net	$	3,086		$	2,546		$	3,583		$	2,546

Based upon customer credit profiles, T-Mobile classifies EIP receivables into the credit categories of “Prime” and “Subprime”. T-Mobile uses proprietary scoring systems that measure the credit quality of the EIP receivables using several factors, such as credit bureau information, consumer credit risk scores and service plan characteristics. Prime customer receivables are those with lower delinquency risk and Subprime customer receivables are those with higher delinquency risk. Customers within the Subprime category may be required to pay a significant down payment on their equipment purchases. In addition, certain customers within the Subprime category are required to pay an advance deposit.

T-Mobile maintains an additional allowance for credit losses exceeding the credit risk recorded as deferred interest. The allowance is based on a number of factors, including collection experience, aging of the accounts receivable portfolio, credit quality of the customer base, and other qualitative factors such as macro-economic conditions. T-Mobile writes off account balances if collection efforts were unsuccessful and future collection is unlikely based on customer credit ratings and the length of time from the original billing date. Equipment sales that are not reasonably assured to be collectible are recorded on a cash basis as payments are received.

Note 4 – Fair Value Measurements and Derivative Instruments

Derivative Financial Instruments

Embedded Derivatives

In connection with the business combination with MetroPCS, T-Mobile issued senior reset notes to Deutsche Telekom. The interest rates are adjusted at the reset dates to rates defined in the applicable supplemental indentures to manage interest rate risk related to the senior reset notes. The Company determined certain components of the reset feature are required to be bifurcated from the senior reset notes and separately accounted for as embedded derivative instruments not designated as hedges. T-Mobile held five embedded derivatives as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

The embedded derivatives are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses from changes in fair value included in interest expense to affiliates. The fair value of the embedded derivatives was determined using a lattice-based valuation model by determining the fair value of the senior reset notes with and without the embedded derivatives included. The fair value of the senior reset notes with the embedded derivatives utilizes the contractual term of each senior reset note, reset rates calculated based on the spread between specified yield curves and the yield curve on T-Mobile long-term debt adjusted pursuant to the applicable supplemental indentures, and interest rate volatility. Interest rate volatility is a significant unobservable input (Level 3) as it is derived based on weighted ~~risk free~~risk-free rate volatility and credit spread volatility. Significant increases or decreases in the weighting of ~~risk free~~risk-free volatility and credit spread volatility, in isolation, would result in a higher or lower fair value of the embedded derivatives. The embedded derivatives were classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Interest Rate Swaps

Prior to the closing of the business combination with MetroPCS, T-Mobile managed interest rate risk related to its long-term debt to affiliates by entering into interest rate swap agreements. T-Mobile held seven interest rate swaps with a total notional amount of $3.6 billion as of December 31, 2012. These interest rate swap agreements were not designated as hedging instruments.

In April 2013, prior to the closing of the business combination with MetroPCS, Deutsche Telekom recapitalized T-Mobile by retiring the existing T-Mobile long-term debt to affiliates and all related derivative instruments, which included the interest rate swaps. The related balance in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) was reclassified into net income (loss). As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were no outstanding interest rate swaps.

Table of Contents

Cross Currency Interest Rate Swaps

Prior to the closing of the business combination with MetroPCS, T-Mobile managed foreign currency risk along with interest rate risk through cross currency interest rate swap agreements related to its intercompany Euro denominated long-term debt to affiliates, which were entered into upon assumption of the notes to fix the future interest and principal payments in U.S. dollars, as well as to mitigate the impact of foreign currency transaction gains or losses over the terms of the long-term debt to affiliates extending to 2025. T-Mobile had three cross currency interest rate swaps with a total notional amount of $2.3 billion as of December 31, 2012. These cross currency interest rate swaps were designated as cash flow hedges and met the criteria for hedge accounting. The hedges were evaluated as highly effective prior to the closing of the business combination with MetroPCS, thus no gains (losses) were recognized due to hedge ineffectiveness.

In April 2013, prior to the closing of the business combination with MetroPCS, Deutsche Telekom recapitalized T-Mobile by retiring the existing T-Mobile long-term debt to affiliates and all related derivative instruments, which included cross currency interest rate swaps. The related balance in AOCI was reclassified into net income (loss). As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were no outstanding cross currency interest rate swaps.

Long-term Debt

The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt to affiliates was determined based on a discounted cash flow approach which considers the future cash flows discounted at current rates. The approach includes an estimate for the stand-alone credit risk of T-Mobile. The Company’s long-term debt to affiliates were classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt to third parties was determined based on quoted market prices in active markets, and therefore are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s long-term debt were as follows:


	March 31, 2014				December 31, 2013				June 30, 2014				December 31, 2013
(in millions)	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Long-term debt to affiliates	$	5,600	$	5,991	$	5,600	$	5,866	$	5,600	$	6,025	$	5,600	$	5,866

Although the Company has determined the estimated fair value amounts using available market information and commonly accepted valuation methodologies, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop fair value estimates for the long-term debt. The fair value estimates are based on information available as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014 and December 31,

~~Commitments~~

Purchase Commitments

~~In January~~T-Mobile has commitments to purchase handsets, network services, equipment, software, marketing sponsorship agreements and other items in the ordinary course of business, with various terms through 2018. These amounts are not reflective of the Company’s entire anticipated purchases under the related agreements, but are determined based on the non-cancelable quantities or termination amounts to which the Company was contractually obligated. During the second quarter of 2014, T-Mobile entered into ~~agreements with Verizon~~significant new commitments for the ~~acquisition~~purchase of ~~700 MHz A-Block spectrum licenses for cash~~network services, equipment and ~~the transfer of certain AWS spectrum and PCS spectrum. As a result of the transaction, T-Mobile assumed additional future~~software.

Guarantee Liabilities

T-Mobile offers a handset upgrade program, Just Upgrade My Phone (“JUMP!”), that provides eligible customers a specified-price trade-in right to upgrade their handset. Participating customers must finance their handset using an EIP. Upon upgrading, the customer will receive a credit ~~in the amount~~for up to 50% of ~~the outstanding~~their initially financed EIP balance provided they trade in their eligible used handset in good working condition and purchase a new handset from T-Mobile.

For customers who enroll in the trade-in programs, the Company defers the portion of equipment sales revenue which represents the estimated value of the specified-price trade-in right guarantee. The guarantee liabilities are valued based on various economic and customer behavioral assumptions, including the customer's estimated remaining EIP balance at trade-in, the expected fair value of the used handset at trade-in, and the probability and timing of trade-in. When the customer upgrades their handset, the difference between the trade-in credit to the customer and the fair value of the returned handset is recorded against the guarantee liabilities. Guarantee liabilities included in other current liabilities were $~~264~~298 million and $191 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The estimated EIP receivable balance if all enrolled handset upgrade program customers were to claim their benefit, not including any trade-in value of the required used handset, was $~~1.7~~2.1 billion ~~and $1.2 billion~~ as of ~~March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.~~June 30, 2014. This is not an indication of the Company’s expected loss exposure because it does not consider the expected fair value of the used handset, which is required to be in good working condition at trade-in, nor does it consider the probability and timing of trade-in.

Contingencies and Litigation

~~As of~~ ~~March 31, 2014~~, T-Mobile was a defendant in one putative stockholder derivative and class action lawsuit challenging the business combination with MetroPCS and alleging that the various defendants breached fiduciary duties, or aided and abetted in the alleged breach of fiduciary duties, to the MetroPCS stockholders by entering into the transaction - Adam Golovoy et al. v. Deutsche Telekom et al., Cause No. CC-12-06144-A (Dallas, Texas County Court at Law). (Six other cases have either been dismissed or have settled.) The complaint alleged claims for relief including, among other things, rescission to the extent the terms of the business combination have already been implemented, damages for the breaches of fiduciary duty, and the payment of plaintiffs’ attorneys’ fees and costs. The Golovoy case was settled and dismissed in April 2014.

~~T-Mobile and its subsidiaries are~~is involved in various lawsuits, regulatory proceedings, and other similar matters, including class actions and intellectual property claims, including patent infringement claims, that arise in the ordinary course of business. Specifically, T-Mobile faces actual and potential litigation and other legal and regulatory proceedings that challenge customer billing and other business practices, and seek awards of damages, restitution, injunctive relief, and/or penalties. T-Mobile has established an accrual with respect to certain of these matters, where appropriate, which is reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements but that T-Mobile does not consider, individually or in the aggregate, significant. An accrual is established when T-Mobile believes it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and an amount can be reasonably estimated. For ~~example, state Attorneys General~~other matters, where the Company has not determined that a loss is probable or because the amount of loss cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company has not recorded an accrual due to various factors typical in contested proceedings, including but not limited to: uncertainty concerning legal theories and ~~other government agencies have engaged in investigations~~their resolution by courts or regulators; uncertain damage theories and ~~inquiries regarding third-party billing (or “cramming”),~~ demands;

and ~~are seeking restitution and changes in business practices by carriers and content providers. Legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable, and often present complex legal and~~a less than fully developed factual ~~issues and can include claims for large amounts of damages or other remedies.~~record. While T-Mobile ~~currently~~ does not expect that the ultimate resolution of these proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, including the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) litigation and related matters described below, will have a material adverse effect on ~~T-Mobile’s~~the Company’s financial position, an unfavorable outcome of some or all of these proceedings could have a material adverse impact on ~~our~~ results of operations or cash flows for a particular period. This assessment is based on T-Mobile’s current understanding of relevant facts and circumstances. As such, T-Mobile’s view of these matters is subject to inherent uncertainties and may change in the future.

As T-Mobile has previously disclosed, state Attorneys General and other government agencies have engaged in investigations and inquiries regarding third-party billing, a practice sometimes referred to as “cramming”, and are seeking restitution and changes in business practices. In particular, these investigations and inquiries have focused on alleged unauthorized billing for premium Short Message Service (“SMS”) content. Premium SMS content was provided to customers by third parties that sent text alerts on topics of interest, such as weather and sports scores, and ringtones. T-Mobile, along with the other major wireless carriers, stopped billing for these services in late 2013. In June 2014, T-Mobile announced a comprehensive refund program, under which T-Mobile will notify current and former customers who paid for premium SMS content and have not already received a refund how to request a summary of these charges and a refund for those charges customers assert to have been unauthorized. T-Mobile recognized the estimated cost of the refund program as a reduction to service revenues during the second quarter of 2014.

On July 1, 2014, the FTC filed a lawsuit alleging that T-Mobile allowed third-party merchants to include unauthorized premium SMS content charges on customer bills, and seeking restitution and changes in business practices (Federal Trade Commission v. T-Mobile USA, Inc., Case No. 2:14-cv-00967-JLR, W.D. Washington). This complaint does not seek a specified sum as monetary relief. In addition, the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) and other government agencies have begun investigations and inquiries regarding billing for premium SMS content. Although it is reasonably possible that T-Mobile may incur losses relating to the alleged unauthorized billing of customers for premium SMS content in excess of the amount already recognized in connection with the comprehensive refund program described above, T-Mobile cannot reasonably estimate the amount of the possible loss or the range of loss, if any, which may result from these matters given the procedural status of the disputes, the legal issues presented, T-Mobile’s legal and factual defenses, the inherent difficulty in predicting the potential for or amount of regulatory fines and penalties, and the various remedies and levels of judicial review available to T-Mobile in the event a monetary award, fine or penalty is assessed. T-Mobile is vigorously defending these proceedings.

Note 7 – Guarantor Financial Information

Pursuant to the applicable indentures and supplemental indentures, the long-term debt, excluding capital leases, issued by T-Mobile USA (“Issuer”) is fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis by T-Mobile (“Parent”) and certain of the Issuer’s wholly owned subsidiaries (“Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The guarantees of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are subject to release in limited circumstances only upon the occurrence of certain customary conditions. The indentures governing the long-term debt contain covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of the Issuer and the Guarantor Subsidiaries to: incur more debt; pay dividends and make distributions; make certain investments; repurchase stock; create liens or other encumbrances; enter into transactions with affiliates; enter into transactions that restrict dividends or distributions from subsidiaries; and merge, consolidate, or sell, or otherwise dispose of, substantially all of their assets. Certain provisions of each of the indentures and the supplemental indentures relating to the long-term debt restrict the ability of the Issuer to loan funds or make payments to Parent. However, the Issuer and Guarantor Subsidiaries are allowed to make certain permitted payments to the Parent under the terms of the indentures and the supplemental indentures.

In February 2014, T-Mobile entered into a factoring arrangement to sell certain service accounts receivable on a revolving basis. In connection with the factoring arrangement, the Company formed the Factoring SPE, which is included in the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries condensed consolidating financial information. See Note 2 – Acquisitions and Other Transactions for further information regarding the factoring arrangement.

In April 2014, Parent contributed $1.7 billion of cash to the Issuer in connection with the Verizon 700 MHz A-Block spectrum license acquisition. The transaction was recorded as an equity contribution and reflected in investments in subsidiaries, net on the Parent’s condensed consolidating balance sheet information. In addition, the contribution was presented as an investing activity from the Parent to the Issuer in the condensed consolidating statement of cash flows information.

Presented below is the condensed consolidating financial information as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 and for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014 and ~~March 31,~~ 2013, respectively. As the business combination was treated as a “reverse acquisition” and the Issuer was treated as the accounting acquirer, the Issuer’s historical financial statements are the historical financial statements of Parent for comparative purposes. As a result the Parent column only reflects activity in the condensed consolidating financial statements presented below for periods subsequent to the consummation of the business combination on April 30, 2013. The equity method of accounting is used to account for ownership interests in subsidiaries, where applicable.

Note 8 – Subsequent Events

~~Spectrum License Transactions~~

~~In January 2014, T-Mobile entered into agreements with Verizon for the acquisition of 700 MHz A-Block spectrum licenses for cash~~Contingencies and the transfer of certain AWS spectrum and PCS spectrum. Upon closing of the transaction in April 2014, T-Mobile paid Verizon $2.4 billion in cash and transferred AWS spectrum and PCS spectrum. T-Mobile will recognize the 700 MHz A-Block spectrum licenses received at fair value and a non-cash gain upon finalization of the valuation in the second quarter.Litigation

In ~~November 2013,~~July 2014, the ~~Company entered into an agreement with Verizon~~FTC filed a lawsuit against T-Mobile alleging claims related to ~~exchange certain AWS spectrum~~the inclusion of unauthorized charges by third-party merchants on T-Mobile customer bills. In addition, the FCC and ~~PCS spectrum. Upon~~other government agencies have begun investigations and inquiries regarding third-party billing, such as for premium SMS content. See Note 5 – Commitments and Contingencies for further information.

Network Decommissioning Costs

Prior to the closing of the ~~transaction~~business combination, T-Mobile developed integration plans which included the decommissioning of the MetroPCS Code Division Multiple Access (“CDMA”) network and certain other redundant network cell sites. In July 2014, T-Mobile began decommissioning the MetroPCS CDMA network and redundant network cell sites. During the second half of 2014, T-Mobile expects to incur network decommissioning costs between $250 million and $300 million for certain cell sites in ~~April 2014, T-Mobile transferred AWS spectrum and PCS spectrum~~three major metropolitan markets. Network decommissioning costs primarily relate to ~~Verizon.~~the acceleration of lease costs for cell sites, which will result in cash expenditures that will continue to be made over the remaining lease terms, but for which T-Mobile will ~~recognize~~no longer receive any economic benefit. Accrued liabilities for network decommissioning costs will be relieved as payments are made over the ~~AWS licenses~~remaining lease terms. Network decommissioning costs will be recognized in MetroPCS transaction and ~~PCS licenses received at fair value and a non-cash gain upon finalization of the valuation~~integration costs in the ~~second quarter.~~condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

~~See~~ ~~Note 2 – Acquisitions~~T-Mobile expects to decommission certain cell sites in additional major metropolitan markets in 2015 and ~~Other Transactions~~2016. Currently, T-Mobile is unable to estimate the expected network decommissioning costs and related future cash expenditures for ~~further information~~those cell sites due to uncertainties regarding the ~~spectrum license transactions.~~specific sites to be decommissioned and the timing of such decommissioning.

Other Highlights

Un-carrier value proposition – In January 2014, we launched phase 4.0 of our Un-carrier value proposition or “Contract Freedom”, which reimburses customers’ early termination fees (“ETF”) when they switch from other carriers and trade in their eligible device. The reimbursement of ~~early termination fees (“ETF”)~~ETF is recorded as a reduction of equipment sales revenues, and accordingly had an impact on both revenue and Adjusted EBITDA ~~of approximately $100 million~~ for the three and six months ended~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014. In April 2014, we announced that starting in May, for bills arriving in June, domestic overage charges will be abolished for all customers on our consumer plans. In June 2014, we launched phase 5.0 of our Un-carrier value proposition, or “T-Mobile Test Drive”, which allows consumers to test our network and an iPhone 5s with unlimited nationwide service for seven days at no charge. Also, in June 2014, we launched phase 6.0 of our Un-Carrier value proposition, or “Music Freedom”, which allows customers to stream music from popular music services without it counting against their data allotment. Additionally, as part of phase 6.0 of our Un-carrier value proposition, we launched Rhapsody unRadio in partnership with Rhapsody for a limited time, which allows Simple Choice customers with unlimited 4G data service to stream music at no additional cost. We are also offering Rhapsody unRadio at a discounted price for our eligible customers.

Spectrum purchases – In November 2013 and January 2014, we entered into agreements with Verizon for the acquisition of 700 MHz A-Block, AWS and PCS spectrum licenses in exchange for ~~approximately $2.4 billion in~~ cash and the transfer of certain AWS ~~spectrum~~ and PCS ~~spectrum. The~~ spectrum licenses acquired from Verizon cover more than 150 million people, including approximately 50% of the U.S. population and 70% of our existing customer base, in 23 markets. This transaction is expected tolicenses. These transactions further enhance our portfolio of U.S. nationwide broadband spectrum and enable the expansion of LTE coverage to new markets. ~~The transaction closed~~Upon closing of the transactions in April ~~2014.~~2014, we received 700 MHz A-Block, AWS and PCS spectrum licenses and exchanged certain AWS and PCS spectrum licenses. See Note 2 – Acquisitions and Other Transactions of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part 1, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for more information.

Factoring arrangement – In February 2014, we entered into a two-year factoring arrangement to sell certain service accounts receivable on a revolving basis, subject to a maximum funding limit of $500 million at any given time. See Note 2 – Acquisitions and Other Transactions of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part 1, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for more information.

~~Three Months Ended March 31, 2014 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2013~~

Revenues

Branded postpaid revenues increased ~~$184~~$227 million, or 7%, for the three months ended and $411 million, or 6%, for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, compared to the same ~~period~~periods in 2013. The ~~increase was~~increases were primarily attributable to ~~a 14% year-over-year increase~~growth in the number of average branded postpaid customers driven by the continued success of our Un-carrier value ~~proposition. The increase,~~proposition along with an increase in revenues from the adoption of upgrade ~~programs, was~~and insurance programs. These increases were partially offset by lower branded postpaid phone average revenue per user (“ARPU”). See “Performance Measures” for a description of ARPU. Branded postpaid phone ARPU was negatively impacted by the growth of our Value and Simple Choice (“Simple Choice”) plans, which have lower monthly service charges compared to traditional bundled plans. Branded postpaid customers on Value and Simple Choice plans ~~more than doubled~~increased over the past twelve months to ~~75%~~80% of the branded postpaid customer base atas of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, compared to ~~36%~~50% atas of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013. Additionally, non-recurring factors of a reduction in certain regulatory surcharges and a non-recurring revenue adjustment for expected customer refunds on premium SMS content charges together reduced branded postpaid revenues by $43 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014.

Branded prepaid revenues increased ~~$1.1~~$494 million, or 40%, for the three months ended and $1.6 billion, or 94%, for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, compared to the same ~~period~~periods in 2013, primarily due to the inclusion of MetroPCS operating results since completion of the business combination and the subsequent expansion and growth of the MetroPCS customer base.

Wholesale revenues increased $29 million, or 20%, for the three months ended and $53 million, or 18%, for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, compared to the same periods in 2013. The increase was primarily attributable to growth of the average number of Mobile Virtual Network Operator (“MVNO”) customers for the period. The increase in MVNO customers was primarily from MVNO growth in government subsidized Lifeline programs and monthly plans offered by our MVNO partners.

Roaming and other service revenues decreased $22 million, or ~~24%~~25%, for the three months ended and $44 million, or 25%, for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, compared to the same ~~period~~periods in 2013, primarily due to a decline in ~~early termination fees~~ETFs following ~~the~~our introduction of the no annual service contract feature of the Simple Choice plan launched in March 2013.

Equipment sales increased ~~$842~~$221 million, or ~~139%~~16%, for the three months ended and $1.1 billion, or 54%, for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, compared to the same ~~period~~periods in 2013. The ~~increase was~~increases were primarily attributable to significant growth in the number of handsets sold due to higher gross customer additions and ~~an increase in~~higher handset upgrade volumes, including JUMP! redemptions. To a lesser extent, the ~~rate of customers upgrading their handsets. Additionally, equipment sales increased~~

~~due to higher volume of smartphone sales. Approximately $150 million of the increase in equipment sales was attributable to~~increases resulted from the inclusion of MetroPCS operating results for the entire three and six months ended~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014. These increases were partially offset by ~~revenue~~ reductions to equipment sales revenues from the reimbursement of ~~ETFs from~~ other ~~carriers~~carriers’ ETFs in connection with Un-carrier phase ~~4.0 totaling approximately $100 million for the~~ ~~three months endedMarch 31, 2014~~.4.0.

We financed ~~$1.2~~$1.3 billion of equipment sales revenues through equipment installment plans during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, a significant increase from ~~$298~~$811 million in the same period in ~~three months endedMarch 31,~~ 2013, resulting from growth of our ~~Value and~~ Simple Choice plans. Additionally, customers had associated equipment installment plan billings of ~~$657~~$810 million in the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, compared to ~~$194~~$314 million in the same period in ~~three~~2013. During the six months ended~~March 31, 2013~~. June 30, 2014, we financed $2.6 billion of equipment sales revenues through equipment installment plans, an increase from $1.1 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2013. Additionally, customers had associated equipment installment plan billings of $1.5 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $508 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013. We classify EIP receivables, gross into credit categories of “Prime” and “Subprime”. Prime receivables, those with lower delinquency risk, were 53% of the EIP receivables on a gross basis as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014.

Other revenues increased ~~$24~~$8 million, or 9%, for the three months ended and $32 million, or 20%, for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, compared to the same ~~period~~periods in 2013.

MetroPCS transaction and integration costs of ~~$12~~$22 million and $34 million for the three and six months ended~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, respectively, and $26 million and ~~$13~~$39 million for the three and six months ended~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013, respectively, reflect personnel-related costs and professional services costs associated with the business combination. In July 2014, we began decommissioning the MetroPCS CDMA network and certain other redundant network cell sites. We expect to incur between $250 million and $300 million in network decommissioning costs during the second half of 2014, which will be excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. These network decommissioning costs relate primarily to the acceleration of lease costs for cell sites that would have otherwise been recognized as cost of services over the remaining lease term had we not decommissioned the cell sites. See Note 8 – Subsequent Events of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part 1, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for more information on the network decommissioning costs.

The decrease during the six months endedJune 30, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013, was further impacted by fair value adjustments related to embedded derivative instruments associated with the senior reset notes issued to Deutsche Telekom in the recapitalization. Additionally, interest expense to affiliates was higher during 2013 as a result of losses related to the ~~three months endedMarch 31, 2014~~.retirement of derivative instruments associated with the extinguishment of the long-term debt to affiliates prior to the business combination.

Guarantor Subsidiaries

Pursuant to the applicable indentures and supplemental indentures, the long-term debt, excluding capital leases, are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis by T-Mobile (“Parent”) and certain of T-Mobile USA’s (“Issuer”) 100% owned subsidiaries (“Guarantor Subsidiaries”). In 2014, T-Mobile entered into a two-year factoring arrangement to sell certain service accounts receivable on a revolving basis. In connection with the factoring arrangement, the Company formed the Factoring SPE, which is included in the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries condensed consolidating financial information.

Performance Measures

In managing our business and assessing financial performance, we supplement the information provided by the financial statements with other operating or statistical data and non-GAAP financial measures. These operating and financial measures are utilized by our management to evaluate our operating performance and, in certain cases, our ability to meet liquidity requirements. Although companies in the wireless industry may not define each of these measures in precisely the same way, we believe that these measures facilitate key operating performance comparisons with other companies in the wireless industry.

Total Customers

A customer is generally defined as a SIM card with a unique T-Mobile identity number which is associated to an account that generates revenue. Branded customers generally include customers that are qualified either for postpaid service, where they generally pay after incurring service, or prepaid service, where they generally pay in advance. Wholesale customers include Machine-to-Machine (“M2M”) and ~~Mobile Virtual Network Operator (“MVNO”)~~MVNO customers that operate on our network, but are managed by wholesale partners.

Churn

Churn represents the number of customers whose service was discontinued as a percentage of the average number of customers during the specified period. The number of customers whose service was discontinued is presented net of customers that subsequently have their service restored. We believe that churn provides management with useful information to evaluate customer retention and loyalty.

Average Revenue Per User (“ARPU”) and Average Billings Per User (“ABPU”)

ARPU represents the average monthly service revenue earned from customers. We believe ARPU provides management, investors and analysts with useful information to assess our per-customer service revenue realization, assist in forecasting our future service revenues, and evaluate the average monthly service revenues generated from our customer base. Branded postpaid phone ARPU is reported for the first time in the quarterly reporting period ending June 30, 2014 in replacement of branded postpaid ARPU to exclude mobile broadband customers and related revenues and provide which is more comparable with other national carriers’ ARPU disclosures.

ABPU represents the average monthly branded postpaid customer billings. We believe ABPU provides management, investors and analysts with useful information to evaluate average per-branded postpaid customer billings as it approximates the estimated cash collections, including equipment installments, from our customers each month.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest expense (net of interest income), tax, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation and expenses not reflective of T-Mobile’s ongoing operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA margin is Adjusted EBITDA divided by service revenues.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure utilized by our management to monitor the financial performance of our operations. We use Adjusted EBITDA internally as a metric to evaluate and compensate our personnel and management for their performance, and as a benchmark to evaluate our operating performance in comparison to our competitors. Management also uses Adjusted EBITDA to measure our ability to provide cash flows to meet future debt services, capital expenditures and working capital requirements, and fund future growth. We believe analysts and investors use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to evaluate overall operating performance and facilitates comparisons with other wireless communications companies. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation

Other, net for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014 primarily consisted of a non-cash gain from spectrum license transactions. Other, net transactions may not agree in total to the other, net in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) primarily due to certain routine operating activities, such as insignificant routine spectrum license exchanges that would be expected to reoccur, and are therefore included in Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted EBITDA ~~decreased 8%~~increased 29% for the three months ended and 10% for the six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, compared to the same ~~period~~periods in 2013. ~~The inclusion of MetroPCS’s operating results, contributed approximately $250 million in Adjusted EBITDA for the~~ ~~three months endedMarch 31, 2014. Excluding the Adjusted EBITDA contributed by MetroPCS’s operating results,~~ Adjusted EBITDA was ~~negatively~~positively impacted primarily by the increase in loss on equipment sales due to higher volumes of smartphone sales. Adjusted EBITDA was also negatively impacted by approximately $100 million due to the reimbursement of new customers’ ETFs from other carriers associated with Un-carrier phase 4.0. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA was negatively impacted by higher selling, general and administrative expenses partially offset by increased branded postpaid revenues resulting from growth in the branded postpaid customer base due to positive customer response to our Un-carrier value proposition. In addition, the inclusion of MetroPCS operating results for the entire three and six months ended June 30, 2014 positively impacted Adjusted EBITDA for those periods compared to the prior year. These increases were offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was negatively impacted by an increase in loss on equipment sales.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash and cash equivalents and cash generated from operations, proceeds from the sale of certain service receivables related to a factoring arrangement, financing arrangements which effectively extend payment terms, issuance of long-term debt and issuance of common stock in connection with public offerings. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, our cash and cash equivalents were $~~5.5~~3.1 billion. In addition, we have entered into an unsecured revolving credit facility with Deutsche Telekom that allows for up to $500 million in borrowings. We expect our current sources of funding to be sufficient to meet the anticipated liquidity requirements of the Company in the next 12 months and intend to use our current sources of funding for general corporate purposes, including capital investments, enhancing our financial flexibility and opportunistically acquiring additional spectrum in private party transactions and government auctions. We may seek to raise additional debt or equity capital to the extent our projections regarding our liquidity requirements change or on an opportunistic basis when there are favorable market conditions. Further, we may consider entering into factoring arrangements to sell certain EIP receivables as an additional source of liquidity.

Prior to the completion of the business combination with MetroPCS on April 30, 2013, our sources of liquidity were cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments with Deutsche Telekom included in accounts receivable from affiliates, and cash generated from operations.

In January 2014, we entered into agreements with Verizon for the acquisition of 700 MHz A-Block spectrum licenses for ~~approximately $2.4 billion in~~ cash and the transfer of certain AWS ~~spectrum~~ and PCS ~~spectrum. The~~spectrum licenses. Upon closing the transaction ~~closed~~ in April ~~2014. We financed the cash consideration payable to~~2014, we paid Verizon $2.4 billion with cash on ~~hand.~~hand and transferred certain AWS and PCS spectrum licenses.

Table of Contents

In February 2014, we entered into a two-year factoring arrangement to sell certain receivables on a revolving basis as an additional source of liquidity. The factoring arrangement is subject to a maximum funding limit of $500 million. We sold receivables related to the factoring arrangement for net cash proceeds of ~~$434~~$468 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014. See Note 2 – Acquisitions and Other Transactions of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part 1, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for more information on the factoring arrangement.

The indentures governing the long-term debt, excluding capital leases, contain covenants that, among other things, limit our ability to: incur more debt; pay dividends and make distributions; make certain investments; repurchase stock; create liens or other encumbrances; enter into transactions with affiliates; enter into transactions that restrict dividends or distributions from subsidiaries; and merge, consolidate, or sell, or otherwise dispose of, substantially all of their assets. Certain provisions of each of the indentures and the supplemental indentures relating to the long-term debt restrict the ability of the Issuer to loan funds or make payments to the Parent. However, the Issuer is allowed to make certain permitted payments to the Parent under the terms of each of the indentures and the supplemental indentures relating to the long-term debt. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, we were in compliance with all restrictive debt covenants.

Capital Expenditures

Our liquidity requirements have been driven primarily by capital expenditures for spectrum licenses and the construction, expansion and upgrading of our network infrastructure.

~~The property~~Property and equipment capital expenditures for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014 and 2013 primarily relate to our network modernization and deployment of 4G LTE. We expect cash capital expenditures for property and equipment to be in the range of $4.3 billion to $4.6 billion for the year ending December 31, 2014. This does not include purchases of spectrum licenses, including the acquisition of 700 MHz A-Block spectrum licenses from Verizon.

Cash Flows

The following table shows cash flow information:

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities was $~~214~~265 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, compared to no$9 million ~~cash provided by financing activities~~ for the same period in 2013. The increase was primarily due to repayments of short-term debt for purchases of property and equipment of $~~226~~231 million and payments of employee taxes in connection with the net share settlement of stock awards of $72 million. This was offset in part by excess tax benefit from stock based compensation of $33 million and proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $23 million.

Contractual Obligations

~~In January 2014, we entered into agreements with Verizon for the acquisition~~Current accounting standards require disclosure of ~~700 MHz A-Block spectrum licenses for cash~~material obligations and ~~the transfer of certain AWS spectrum and PCS spectrum. The transaction closed in April 2014. As a result of the transaction, we assumed additional~~commitments to make future ~~contractual obligations of approximately $2.4 billion. Future~~ payments under ~~the~~contracts, such as debt, lease agreements, ~~are expected to be made in less than one year.~~and purchase obligations. See Note 25 – ~~Acquisitions~~Commitments and ~~Other Transactions~~Contingencies of the Notes to the ~~Condensed~~ Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part 1,I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q and Note 7 – Debt of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for ~~more~~the year ended December 31, 2013.

Future minimum payments, including principal and interest payments and imputed lease rental income, related to the long-term financial obligation recorded in connection with the Tower Transaction.

T-Mobile calculated the minimum obligation for certain agreements to purchase goods or services based on termination fees that can be paid to exit the contract. Termination penalties are included in the above table as payments due in less than one year, as this is the earliest T-Mobile could exit these contracts. For certain contracts that include fixed volume purchase commitments and fixed prices for various products, the purchase obligations are calculated using fixed volumes and contractually fixed prices for the products that are expected to be purchased. This table does not include open purchase orders as of June 30, 2014 under normal business purposes.

Certain commitments and obligations are included in the table based on the ~~spectrum license transaction.~~year of required payment or an estimate of the year of payment. Other non-current liabilities have been excluded from the tables due to the uncertainty of the timing of payments, combined with the absence of historical trending to be used as a predictor of such payments.

The purchase obligations reflected in the table above are primarily commitments to purchase handsets and accessories, equipment, software, programming and network services, and marketing activities, which will be used or sold in the ordinary course of business. These amounts do not represent T-Mobile’s entire anticipated purchases in the future, but represent only those items for which T-Mobile is contractually committed. The Company also has purchase obligations that vary with the level of the Company’s sales of certain products. The future development of sales of those products could result in purchase obligations in excess of the amounts shown in the table above. Where T-Mobile is committed to make a minimum payment to the supplier regardless of whether it takes delivery, T-Mobile has included only that minimum payment as a purchase obligation.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In February 2014, T-Mobile entered into a two-year factoring arrangement to sell certain service accounts receivable on a revolving basis as an additional source of liquidity. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, T-Mobile derecognized net receivables of ~~$546~~$611 million upon sale through the factoring arrangement.

Related Party Transactions

There have been no material changes in our related party transactions as previously disclosed in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Disclosure of Iranian Activities under Section 13(r) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

Section 219 of the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012 added Section 13(r) to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”). Section 13(r) requires an issuer to disclose in its annual or quarterly reports, as applicable, whether it or any of its affiliates knowingly engaged in certain activities, transactions or dealings relating to Iran or with designated natural persons or entities involved in terrorism or the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. Disclosure is required even where the activities, transactions or dealings are conducted outside the U.S. by non-U.S. affiliates in compliance with applicable law, and whether or not the activities are sanctionable under U.S. law.

As of the date of this report, we are not aware of any activity, transaction or dealing by us or any of our affiliates for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014 that requires disclosure in this report under Section 13(r) of the Exchange Act, except as set forth below with respect to affiliates that we do not control and that are our affiliates solely due to their common control with Deutsche Telekom. We have relied upon Deutsche Telekom for information regarding their activities, transactions and dealings.

~~Table of Contents~~

Deutsche Telekom, through certain of its non-U.S. subsidiaries, is party to roaming and interconnect agreements with the following mobile and fixed line telecommunication providers in Iran, some of which are or may be government-controlled entities: Gostaresh Ertebatat Taliya, Irancell Telecommunications Services Company, Telecommunication Kish Company, Mobile Telecommunication Company of Iran, and Telecommunication Infrastructure Company of Iran. For the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, gross revenues of all Deutsche Telekom affiliates generated by roaming and interconnection traffic with Iran were less than $1 million and estimated net profits were less than $1 million.

In addition, Deutsche Telekom, through certain of its non-U.S. subsidiaries, operating a fixed line network in their respective European home countries (in particular Germany), provides telecommunications services in the ordinary course of business to the Embassy of Iran in those European countries. Gross revenues and net profits related to such activities recorded from these non-U.S. subsidiaries for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014 were less than $0.1 million. We understand that Deutsche Telekom intends to continue these activities.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates as previously disclosed in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

See Note 1 – Basis of Presentation of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part 1, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for more information on the recently issued accounting standards.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to economic risks in the normal course of business, primarily from changes in interest rates. These risks, along with other business risks, impact our cost of capital. Our policy is to manage exposure related to fluctuations in interest rates in order to manage capital costs, control financial risks and maintain financial flexibility over the long term. We have established interest rate risk limits that are closely monitored by measuring interest rate sensitivities of our debt and interest rate derivatives portfolios. We do not foresee significant changes in the strategies used to manage market risk in the near future.

We are exposed to changes in interest rates, primarily on our long-term debt to affiliates. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, we had $5.6 billion in long-term debt with Deutsche Telekom comprised of senior reset notes. Changes in interest rates can lead to fluctuations in the fair value of our variable-rate debt instruments.

Table of Contents

To perform the sensitivity analysis on the long-term debt to affiliates, we assessed the risk of a change in the fair value from the effect of a hypothetical interest rate change of 100 basis points. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, the change in the fair value of our long-term debt to affiliates, based on this hypothetical change, is shown in the table below:


			Fair Value Assuming						Fair Value Assuming
(in millions)	Fair Value		+100 Basis Point Shift		-100 Basis Point Shift		Fair Value		+100 Basis Point Shift		-100 Basis Point Shift
Long-term debt to affiliates	$	5,991	$	5,909	$	6,062	$	6,025	$	5,976	$	6,071

To manage interest rate risk, the interest rates on the senior reset notes are adjusted at the reset dates to rates defined in the applicable supplemental indenture. The Company determined certain components of the reset feature are required to be bifurcated from the senior reset notes and separately accounted for as embedded derivative instruments not designated as hedges. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, we had ~~$48~~$41 million in embedded derivatives related to the senior reset notes. Changes in the spreads between the specified yield curves and the yield curve on T-Mobile long-term debt can lead to fluctuations in the fair value of our embedded derivatives.

To perform sensitivity analysis on the embedded derivatives, we assessed the risk of loss in fair values from the effect of a hypothetical spread change between specified yield curves and the yield curve on T-Mobile long-term debt of 10 basis points on our portfolio of embedded derivatives. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, the change in the fair value of our embedded derivatives, based on this hypothetical change, is shown in the table below:

Fair Value Assuming
Fair Value +10 Basis Point Shift -10 Basis Point Shift
Embedded derivatives $ 48
$ 70
$ 25



			Fair Value Assuming
	Fair Value		+10 Basis Point Shift		-10 Basis Point Shift
Embedded derivatives	$	41	$	64	$	19

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Our disclosure controls are also designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of the end of the period covered by this report.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect internal control over financial reporting.
