Whereas, it is critical to the Company that John Stephens, Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, AT&T Inc., be retained through December 30, 2020;

(a) | if Mr. Stephens reports to an officer or employee of the Company or any of its affiliates other than the Chief Executive Officer of AT&T Inc.; or |
