T-Mobile US Inc. granted Chief Executive Officer John Legere a $66.5 million compensation package last year, largely dependent on whether he can complete a proposed tie-up with Sprint Corp.

The bulk of Legere’s package came from a stock award granted the same day the deal was announced in April 2018, according to a regulatory filing Friday. The payout is tied to T-Mobile’s stock return and Legere remaining on the job to see the acquisition through.
