Pursuant to the A/N-Charter Letter Agreement, on December 21, 2017, A/N delivered to Charter Holdco an exchange notice under Section 2.1(a) of the Exchange Agreement whereby A/N exchanged 1,263,497 Common Units for 1,263,497 shares of Common Stock (the “2017 Exchange”). The 2017 Exchange was subject to Liberty’s right of first refusal pursuant to the A/N Proxy/ROFR Agreement, which Liberty waived pursuant to the Waiver and Consent Letter (as defined below).

As a result of the repurchases of outstanding shares of Common Stock by Charter and sales of Common Units and shares of Common Stock by A/N pursuant to the Original Letter Agreement, the number of shares of Common Stock representing Proxy Shares is currently 10,665,439. The 2017 Exchange increased the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, but will not affect the number of Proxy Shares.

The foregoing summary of the A/N-Charter Letter Agreement is qualified by reference to the full text of such document, which document is incorporated herein by reference and included as an exhibit to this Statement.

Waiver and Consent Letter

In addition, Liberty waived its right of first refusal with respect to the Common Units exchanged by A/N to Charter in connection with the 2017 Exchange.

The parties agreed that the Original Letter Agreement as amended and modified by the A/N-Charter Letter Agreement remains in full force and effect and that the Waiver and Consent Letter shall apply in all respects to the Original Letter Agreement, as amended and modified by the A/N-Charter Letter Agreement.
