THIRTIETH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE (this “Thirtieth Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of May 9, 2017, among T-Mobile USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the Guarantors party hereto and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, a New York banking corporation, as trustee (the “Trustee”).

WHEREAS, the Company has heretofore executed and delivered an Indenture, dated as of April 28, 2013 (the “Base Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors party thereto and the Trustee, modified with respect to the Company’s 6.000% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “Notes”) by a Twenty-First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of April 1, 2016 (the “Twenty-First Supplemental Indenture”; the Base Indenture as modified with respect to the Notes by the Twenty-First Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors party thereto and the Trustee.

WHEREAS, Section 9.01 of the Base Indenture provides that in certain circumstances “the Company, the Guarantors of the Notes of any Series and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture with respect to such Series, the Notes of such Series or the related Guarantees without the consent of any Holder of Notes… to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of Notes of such Series or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under this Indenture of any such Holder in any material respect… [or] to change or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture with respect to such Series, provided that any such change or elimination shall not become effective with respect to any outstanding Notes of any Series created prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture which is entitled to the benefit of such provision…”

WHEREAS, Section 2.03 of the Twenty-First Supplemental Indenture provides that “the Company from time to time, without giving notice to or seeking the consent of the Holders of Notes of this Series, may issue additional notes (“Additional Notes”) in any amount having the same terms as the Notes of this Series in all respects, except for the issue date, the issue price, the initial Interest Payment Date and rights under a related registration rights agreement, if any…”

WHEREAS, to permit Additional Notes that, when issued, are held by Affiliates of the Company or otherwise subject to restrictions on resale under the Securities Act to have a separate CUSIP number, the parties hereto wish to amend Section 2.03 of the Twenty-First Supplemental Indenture to add to the end of the last sentence of the first paragraph thereof the following proviso: “; provided, further, that if such Additional Notes, when issued, are held by Affiliates of the Company or otherwise subject to restrictions on resale under the Securities Act, as applicable, as determined by the Company, such Additional Notes may have a separate CUSIP number; provided, further, that if any such Additional Notes cease to be held by Affiliates of the Company or otherwise subject to restrictions on resale under the Securities Act, as applicable, as determined by the Company, the CUSIP number of such Additional Notes may be changed to the CUSIP number of other Notes of such Series that are not held by Affiliates of the Company or otherwise subject to restrictions on resale under the Securities Act”.

WHEREAS, Section 2.03(j) of the Twenty-First Supplemental Indenture provides that “[t]he Notes of this Series will initially be evidenced by one or more Global Notes issued in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of The Depository Trust Company.”

WHEREAS, to permit Notes that are initially issued to DT to be in the form of one or more Definitive Notes with the Definitive Notes legend, the parties hereto wish to amend Section 2.03(j) of the Twenty-First Supplemental Indenture to add to the following proviso to the end thereof: “provided, that Notes of this Series that are initially issued to DT will initially be evidenced by one or more Definitive Notes”.
