This Registration Statement as originally filed related to the offering of
92,031 shares of FON Common Stock issuable upon exercise of options granted
under the Management Incentive Stock Option Plan, and the offering of 53,777
shares of PCS Common Stock issuable upon exercise of options granted under the
Management Incentive Stock Option Plan. No shares of FON Common Stock were
issued before the two-for-one split of FON Common Stock in the 1999 second
quarter, leaving all 92,031 shares of FON Common Stock. The two-for-one split of
the FON Common Stock increased the number of shares of FON Common Stock
remaining under the Registration Statement to 184,062 shares of FON Common
Stock. No shares of PCS Common Stock were issued before the two-for-one split of
the PCS Common Stock in the 2000 first quarter, leaving all 53,777 shares of PCS
Common Stock. The two-for-one split of the PCS Common Stock increased the number
of shares of PCS Common Stock remaining under the Registration Statement to
107,554 shares of PCS Common Stock.
On February 28, 2004, Sprint's Board of Directors approved the
recombination of the PCS Common Stock and the FON Common Stock, effective on
April 23, 2004 (the "Conversion Date). None of the 107,554 shares of PCS Common
Stock were issued upon the exercise of options before the Conversion Date.
Following the recombination of the PCS Common Stock and the FON Common Stock, no
shares of PCS Common Stock may be issued. Accordingly, the purpose of this
Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 is to deregister the 107,554 shares of PCS Common
Stock covered by this Registration Statement.
