Explanation of Responses: * Deutsche Telekom AG ("DT") and France Telecom S.A. ("FT") may be deemed members of a group, with each holding 43,118,018 shares of Class A Common Stock and 2,599,334 shares of PCS Common Stock-Series 3 ("Series 3 PCS Common Stock") of Sprint Corporation ("Sprint"). DT disclaims beneficial ownership of shares held by FT for reporting purposes on this Form 4. Each share of Class A Common Stock can be converted into one share of FON Common Stock-Series 3 (or, in certain circumstances, FON Common Stock-Series 1) and one-half share of Series 3 PCS Common Stock (or, in certain circumstances, PCS Common Stock-Series 1 ("Series 1 PCS Common Stock")). Each share of Series 3 PCS Common Stock can be converted in certain circumstances into one share of Series 1 PCS Common Stock. The purchase price per share payable by each of DT and FT for the aggregate 5,198,668 shares of Series 3 PCS Common Stock purchased on November 23, 1998 will be determined based on volume-weighted average closing price of the Series 1 PCS Common Stock for the 20 consecutive trading days commencing on November 24, 1998. In payment of the purchase price of such shares, on November 23, 1998, each of DT and FT paid to Sprint $30,000,000 ($60,000,000 in the aggregate) and delivered to Sprint promissory notes in respect of the balance of the purchase price of such shares of Series 3 PCS Common Stock. /s/ Helmut Reuschenbach 12/9/98 ------------------------------- ---------- Title: Senior Executive Director Date **Signature of Reporting Person ** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations.
