  P. Schoenfeld Asset Management Issues White Paper On MetroPCS/T-Mobile
  Transaction

NEW YORK, March 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- P. Schoenfeld Asset Management LP
("PSAM") issued a white paper today that provides detailed analysis of the
proposed MetroPCS Communications, Inc. ("PCS") and T-Mobile USA,
Inc. ("T-Mobile") transaction (the "Proposed T-Mobile Transaction"), and
outlines for all MetroPCS shareholders an overwhelming case for why it is in
the best interests of PCS shareholders to vote against the Proposed T-Mobile
Transaction.  PSAM's white paper will be filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") later today.

Following are excerpts from the PSAM white paper.  To read PSAM's white paper
in its entirety and a more detailed description of the arguments below, please

PROPOSED T-MOBILE TRANSACTION DOES NOT PROVIDE FULL AND FAIR VALUE TO PCS
SHAREHOLDERS

A Standalone PCS is a viable and attractive alternative to the Proposed
T-Mobile Transaction

  o The standalone alternative yields superior value to PCS shareholders, even
    without a revised offer from Deutsche Telekom AG ("DT") or another buyer
    surfacing.  Standalone does not mean standstill.
  o Analysts agree that PCS is worth more as a standalone company than
    combined with T-Mobile.

Equity split does not reflect PCS's strong recent performance and does not
provide the value PCS shareholders deserve

  o The proposed equity split, allocating 26% of the proposed combined
    PCS/T-Mobile post transaction (the "Combined Company") to PCS
    shareholders, is patently unfair to PCS shareholders, does not reflect
    recent exceptionally strong performance by PCS, and is based on stale and
    overly conservative PCS projections, according to PCS's own proxy
    statement; and
  o Limited discussions occurred with third parties and potential acquirors
    over an extended period of time, and no coordinated process has occurred
    in the present M&A, financing and industry environment to assure PCS
    shareholders that the Proposed T-Mobile Transaction maximizes PCS
    shareholder value.

Deal unfairly favors Deutsche Telekom, creates serious conflicts of interest
and violates good corporate governance

  o The transaction unfairly favors DT, offering unequal downside protection
    with their $15 billion creditor position, 74% of the equity of the
    Combined Company, and control of the Combined Company's Board and
    management – representing, as a whole, serious conflicts of interest and
    violations of good corporate governance; and
  o The transaction process conducted by PCS was not designed to obtain the
    highest value for all PCS shareholders and the terms of the Proposed
    T-Mobile transaction do not provide any control premium to PCS
    shareholders – despite an unequivocal sale of control to DT.

$1.5 billion spectrum acquisition deduction charged to PCS is not appropriate

  o A $1.5 billion spectrum acquisition deduction charged to PCS is not
    appropriate or consistent for the contribution analysis, and no details
    have been provided by PCS regarding this significant capital expenditure.

THE DEAL IS IRRESPONSIBLY AND INEFFICIENTLY STRUCTURED

Proposed capital structure of the Combined Company transfers value from PCS
shareholders to DT and places excess risk on PCS shareholders

  o The proposed capital structure is neither appropriate nor fair to PCS
    shareholders. It transfers value from PCS shareholders to DT and places
    excess ongoing risk on PCS shareholders;
  o There are multiple hidden transfers of significant value to DT, including
    above market interest rates on the $15 billion of intercompany debt to be
    issued by the Combined Company to DT ("the "DT Notes"); and
  o A capital structure with no secured debt is not remotely optimal, is
    highly expensive and unfairly favors the Combined Company's largest
    creditor, DT.

Combined Company will be over leveraged

  o Significantly enhanced operating flexibility would result from less
    leverage and a market-based capital structure; and
  o The DT notes have onerous call provisions and a substantial make-whole
    premium on the Combined Company and, as a result, limit future refinancing
    options.

Tremendous lack of transparency regarding the Proposed T-Mobile Transaction

  o Among many other issues detailed in our analysis, there has been no
    clarity regarding the suggested $1.5 billion PCS spectrum investment and
    its impact on the equity split, the source and rationale for the synergies
    valued at $6-$7 billion, the identity of 8 of the 11 directors of the
    Combined Company Board post-closing, and various other material items; and
  o This pervasive lack of transparency places PCS shareholders at a
    significant disadvantage in objectively evaluating the merits of the
    transaction.

THE ALTERNATIVES TO THE PROPOSED T-MOBILE TRANSACTION ARE MORE ATTRACTIVE AND
OFFER BETTER DOWNSIDE PROTECTION

  o The value of PCS's spectrum portfolio and the alternative of operating as
    a mobile virtual network provide downside protection.

The market is clearly and strongly voting against the transaction and so
should you

  o PCS's stock price is down more than 24% since the announcement of the
    proposed transaction on October 3, 2012, and is trading at a significant
    discount to the PCS standalone values presented by PCS and its own
    financial advisors. The market is clearly voting "AGAINST" the proposed T-
    Mobile transaction.

Management GP LLC and Peter M. Schoenfeld  (collectively, the "PSAM Group")
