On February 10, 2004, in compliance with the settlement of the derivative litigation brought by Amalgamated Bank, as Trustee for The Longview Collective Investment Fund, Sprint's Board of Directors combined the 1990 Restricted Stock Plan with and into the 1997 Program to form a single plan (the "Plan Combination"). Accordingly, the purpose of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 is to reflect the fact that the shares of FON Common Stock and PCS Common Stock covered by this Registration Statement and not previously issued under the 1990 Restricted Stock Plan before the Plan Combination will be issued in connection with awards of restricted stock granted under the 1997 Program, but not for any other awards permitted under the 1997 Program (such as options, performance shares, or other stock unit awards).
