("Charter") Class A common stock ("Charter Common Stock"), except that cash (without interest) was paid in lieu of fractional shares.

SEC remarks

On each of September 12, 2019 (the "2019 Transaction") and September 14, 2021 (the "2021 Transaction"), the Reporting Person entered into a "zero-cost collar" arrangement pursuant to which he wrote European call options and purchased European put options over an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of Series C Common Stock and 400,000 shares of Series C Common Stock, respectively. For each of the 2019 Transaction and 2021 Transaction, only one of the options can be in the money on the expiration date, at which time the in-the-money options will be exercised, and the other options will expire. If neither the put options nor the call options are in the money on the expiration date, both the put and call options will expire. Each transaction will be settled in cash unless the Reporting Person elects physical settlement. As a result of the spin-off (the "Spin-Off") of GCI Liberty, Inc. (which is now known as Liberty Capital Corporation) from the Issuer on July 15, 2025, the dealer counterparty to the transactions adjusted the strike price of the call options and put options of each transaction pursuant to its terms. Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of November 12, 2024 (the "Merger Agreement"), by and among the Issuer, Charter, Fusion Merger Sub 1, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of Charter ("Merger LLC"), and Fusion Merger Sub 2, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Merger LLC ("Merger Sub"), on August 19, 2026, Merger Sub merged with and into the Issuer (the "Merger"), with the Issuer surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Merger LLC, and immediately following the Merger, the Issuer (as the surviving corporation in the Merger) merged with and into Merger LLC (the "Upstream Merger"), with Merger LLC surviving the Upstream Merger as the surviving company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Charter.
