This Amendment No. 2 (this “Amendment No. 2”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 10, 2011, as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 26, 2011 (as amended and supplemented, the “Schedule TO”), relating to our offer (the “Offer”) to exchange certain options to purchase shares of our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, having an exercise price of at least $30.00 per share (or, if the closing price of our common stock on the date the replacement options are granted (the “Replacement Grant Date”) is higher than $30.00 per share, an exercise price greater than such closing price), outstanding under the Leap Wireless International, Inc. 2004 Stock Option, Restricted Stock and Deferred Stock Unit Plan (as amended, the “2004 Stock Plan”), and the 2009 Employment Inducement Equity Incentive Plan of Leap Wireless International, Inc. (collectively, “Eligible Options”) and held by eligible employees for a lesser number of replacement options (“Replacement Options”) to be granted under the 2004 Stock Plan calculated in accordance with the applicable exchange ratios (the “Option Exchange”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer To Exchange Certain Outstanding Options for Replacement Options, dated August 10, 2011, and as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1, and filed as Exhibit 99(a)(1)(A) to the Schedule TO (the “Offer to Exchange”). The number of shares of our common stock to be subject to the Replacement Options will be based on exchange ratios that vary depending upon the exercise price and remaining term of the surrendered Eligible Options. Eligible Employees that elect to exchange Eligible Options pursuant to the Option Exchange must submit an election through the Option Exchange website or by using a paper form submitted via email, facsimile or U.S. mail or courier pursuant to the instructions in the Offer to Exchange. Eligible Employees who elect to exchange Eligible Options will be granted Replacement Options to purchase that number of shares of common stock determined in accordance with the applicable exchange ratios.

Except as specifically provided in this Amendment No. 2, the information contained in the Schedule TO and exhibits filed therewith remains unchanged. This Amendment No. 2 should be read in conjunction with the Schedule TO and the exhibits filed therewith (in each case, for the absence of doubt, as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1). All terms used herein have the same meaning as in the Offer to Exchange. Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this Amendment No. 2 to “Leap,” “our,” “us” and “we” mean Leap Wireless International, Inc.
