(1) The shares of T-Mobile Common Stock are held by SBGC, a wholly owned subsidiary of SoftBank. The shares are subject to the Proxy. The Reporting Persons may be deemed to be members of a “group” within the meaning of
Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act, comprised of the Reporting Persons and the Separately Filing Group Members.
(2) Based on the number of shares of T-Mobile Common Stock outstanding on April 30, 2020, as reported by the Issuer in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed with the Commission on May 6, 2020.
(The terms used above are defined in the Explanatory Note and Items 1, 2 and 6 of the Schedule 13D).
SCHEDULE 13D/A
Explanatory Note
This Amendment No. 1 (this “Schedule 13D Amendment”) is being filed on behalf of SoftBank Group Corp., a Japanese kabushiki kaisha (“SoftBank”), and its wholly
owned subsidiary SoftBank Group Capital Ltd, a private limited company incorporated in England and Wales (“SBGC” and together with SoftBank, the “Reporting Persons”). This Schedule 13D Amendment amends the Schedule 13D filed with the U.S. Securities
Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on April 2, 2020 (the “Schedule 13D”), which relates to the common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “T-Mobile Common Stock”), of T-Mobile US, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“T-Mobile” or the “Issuer”).
The principal executive office of the Issuer is located at 12920 SE 38th Street, Bellevue, Washington 98006.
Other than as set forth below, all Items in the Schedule 13D are unchanged. Capitalized terms used herein which are not defined herein have the meanings given to
them in the Schedule 13D.
Item 4. |
Purpose of Transaction.
|
This Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
As part of SoftBank’s initiative to monetize a portion of its assets, the Reporting Persons are exploring one or more transactions with respect to shares of T-Mobile Common Stock, including one or more monetization
transactions. These transactions may include one or more of: private placements or public offerings; privately negotiated transactions with T-Mobile or one or more stockholders of T-Mobile, including Deutsche Telekom, or third parties; derivative
or hedging transactions; margin loans; or other structured transactions (“Potential Transactio
ns”). The exploration or execution of any Potential Transactions will involve discussions and negotiations between or among the Reporting Persons and
T-Mobile or Deutsche Telekom, including plans or proposals to amend, waive or grant a consent under the transfer restrictions applicable to the Reporting Persons under the Proxy Agreement, and plans or proposals with respect to dispositions of
T-Mobile Common Stock that would result in the number of SoftBank-designated directors on the board of directors of T-Mobile decreasing and SoftBank ceasing to report T-Mobile as an equity method affiliate under accounting rules applicable to
SoftBank. Some of the Potential Transactions under consideration would require the approval of the board of directors of T-Mobile and may involve discussions with other relevant parties. Such review, discussions,
actions or steps may involve one or more of the types of matters specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons have had, and continue to have, discussions with Deutsche Telekom and T-Mobile
regarding Potential Transactions. The determination to conduct any sale, monetization or other transactions involving shares of T-Mobile Common Stock will be based on a variety of factors, including, among other
things, the price level and liquidity of the T-Mobile Common Stock; general market and economic conditions; the outcome of any negotiations with Deutsche Telekom or T-Mobile; other business and investment opportunities or disposition
transactions that may be available to the Reporting Persons; ongoing evaluation of T-Mobile’s business, financial condition, operations, and prospects; regulatory, tax and accounting considerations; and other factors
and future developments. There can be no assurance that the aforementioned explorations of Potential Transactions will lead to any transactions being consummated. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, the Reporting Persons specifically reserve the right to change their intentions with respect to any or all of such matters.
