Dear Miranda

Termination of your employment with Liberty Global Europe Limited

This letter sets out the terms that have recently been discussed in relation to the termination of your employment with Liberty Global Europe Limited (“Company”).

You have or may have potential claims arising from your employment and its termination which include unfair dismissal and wrongful dismissal (“Employment Claims”).

This Agreement settles the Employment Claims.

2.7 Your Liberty Global, Inc. Senior Executive Performance Incentive Plan restricted share units scheduled to vest on 31 March 2011 and on 30 September 2011 will vest when scheduled without respect to whether or not your employment continues and by entering into this Agreement you confirm your agreement to this.

Such repayment shall be recoverable by the Company as a debt.

8. Other Matters

8.1 It is a condition of this Agreement that you obtain legal advice as to the terms and effect of this Agreement from the Adviser and that the Adviser signs the acknowledgement at Schedule 1.

8.2 The Company agrees to pay, directly to the Adviser’s firm, the Adviser’s firm’s reasonable legal fees incurred by you exclusively for advice given to you in relation to the termination of your employment and the terms of this Agreement up to a maximum of £250 plus VAT after receipt by the Company of an appropriate invoice from the Adviser’s firm addressed to you expressed to be payable by the Company and sent (marked strictly private and confidential) to Xxxx Xxxxxxx.

9. General

9.1 The parties consider that this Agreement satisfies the conditions regarding compromise agreements.

9.2 This Agreement sets out the entire agreement and understanding between you and the Company and supersedes any prior agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter of this Agreement. You acknowledge and agree that in entering into this Agreement no reliance is placed upon, and no remedy will be available in respect of, any statement, representation, warranty, understanding, promise or assurance (whether negligently or innocently made) of any person (whether party to this Agreement or not) other than as expressly set out in this Agreement. Nothing in this clause operates to limit or exclude any liability for fraud.

9.3 The failure to exercise or any delay in exercising a right or remedy provided by this Agreement or by law does not constitute a waiver of the right or remedy or a waiver of other rights or remedies. A waiver of a breach of any of the terms of this Agreement or a default under this Agreement does not constitute a waiver of any other breach or default and will not affect the other terms of this Agreement and will not prevent a party from subsequently requiring compliance with the waived obligation.

9.4 The rights and remedies provided by this Agreement are cumulative and (subject as otherwise provided in this Agreement) are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. In addition the Company, any Group Company and any Relevant Personnel may enforce the terms of this Agreement and the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Xxx 0000 shall apply accordingly except that the consent of such Group Companies and any Relevant Personnel will not be required to vary or rescind the terms of the Agreement.

6

9.5 Unless otherwise stated, in this Agreement, “Group Company” means any holding company of the Company and any subsidiary of the Company or of any such holding company (where “holding company” and “subsidiary” have the meanings attributed to them in section 1159 Companies Xxx 0000 and for the avoidance of doubt are deemed to include limited liability partnerships). For the purposes of clauses 3.2, 7.1 to 7.4 and 9.4 only, “Group Company” means any parent undertaking of the Company and any subsidiary undertaking of the Company or of any such parent undertaking (where “parent undertaking” and “subsidiary undertaking” have the meanings attributed to them under section 1162 Companies Act 2006).

9.6 The validity, construction and performance of the terms set out in this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English law. Each of the parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England.

9.7 This Agreement, although marked “without prejudice/subject to contract”, will upon signature by us both and upon the Adviser signing the acknowledgement in Schedule 1 be treated (subject to clause 5) as an open document evidencing an agreement binding on us both.

9.8 This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the parties to it on separate counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The Agreement is not effective until each party has executed at least one counterpart and it has been received by the other party. For the avoidance of doubt, counterparts may be delivered to the other party by facsimile or by email in Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF).

Please confirm your agreement to the terms set out in this Agreement by signing, dating and returning to me both of the enclosed copies. Please note that it is a condition of this Agreement that your Adviser signs the acknowledgement at Schedule 1.

I look forward to hearing from you.
