(ii) one (1) Liberty Director selected by Liberty, until such time as Liberty’s Equity Interest or Voting Interest is no longer greater than or equal to 15%; and

Section 3.8 Top-Up Rights.

(a) If a Threshold Breach Event occurs with respect to Liberty or A/N with respect to Sections 3.2, 3.4, 3.5 and/or 3.7(b) and such Threshold Breach Event did not result in whole or in part from a sale by a Liberty Party or A/N Party, as applicable, of Company Equity (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any Permitted Transfers that do not reduce the applicable Investor Party’s Equity Interest or Voting Interest) or the Investor Party’s failure to exercise its rights pursuant to Article V, then, following the Threshold Breach Event, such Investor Party on prior written notice to the Company that it intends to restore its Equity Interest or Voting Interest to the applicable Ownership Threshold within the Initial Top Up Period, shall be entitled to defer the applicable Director’s resignation from the Board, the applicable Director’s resignation from the Search Committee or the loss of consent rights, as applicable, until the date that is three months (the “Initial Top Up Period”) after the date upon which the Investor Party first fell below the applicable Ownership Threshold (the “Top-Up Right”); provided that, with respect to a Threshold Breach Event pursuant to Section 3.2, such deferral right shall not be available for more than one Director per Investor Party at any time unless the Top-Up Right arises in connection with a dilutive transaction not subject to the Preemptive Rights, or multiple dilutive transactions not subject to Preemptive Rights, each closing within a three-month period, in which case the applicable Investor Party shall be permitted to defer resignations of up to two Directors for three months following the last such dilutive transaction; provided further that to the extent that an Investor Party, or the Investor Designees, are subject to black out restrictions implemented by the Company with respect to the Company Common Stock resulting in fewer than thirty (30) trading days exempt from black out restrictions in such three-month period, then such three-month period shall be extended for up to an additional three months (the “Extension Top Up Period”), provided further, that in no event shall the Initial Top Up Period and the Extension Top Up Period together exceed six consecutive months with respect to the applicable Investor Party for a Threshold Breach Event, provided further, that both Liberty and A/N may exercise the Top-Up Right simultaneously, and provided further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any rights granted under this Agreement to an Investor Party which are dependent on such Investor Party having the right to select a certain number of Investor Designee shall not be lost until the expiration of any Extension Top Up Period or, if no such Extension Top Up occurs, the Initial Top Up Period, in each case, as applicable to such Investor Party for the relevant Threshold Breach Event.

(b) If an Investor Party delivers written notice to the Company pursuant to Section 3.8(a) that it intends to exercise the Top Up Right in respect of a Threshold Breach Event, in the event that (x) the Company issues New Securities in a Capital Raising Transaction

or an M&A Transaction, and with respect to which Liberty may exercise the Liberty Future Preemptive Rights and/or A/N may exercise the A/N Future Preemptive Rights (it being understood that Liberty may not exercise Future Preemptive Rights unless its Voting Interest is greater than or equal to 25.01% immediately prior to the applicable dilutive transaction and without giving effect to any dilution associated with the Other Issuance Basket), such Investor Party shall not be deemed to have fallen below any Ownership Threshold during the period from the date of the applicable Capital Raising Issuance Notice or M&A Issuance Notice until the date such Liberty Future Preemptive Right or A/N Future Preemptive Right expires unexercised, or if exercised, the date of closing of such purchase, or (y) the Company issues New Securities in an Other Issuance, Liberty shall not be deemed to have fallen below any Ownership Threshold during the period from the date of the applicable Other Issuance Notice until the date such Liberty Future Preemptive Right with respect to such Other Issuance expires unexercised pursuant to Article V (or, if exercised, the closing of the purchase thereunder has occurred; provided, in the case of both clauses (x) and (y), that the exercise in full of the applicable Liberty Future Preemptive Right would enable Liberty to remain at or above the applicable Ownership Threshold) (any such event described in clause (x) or (y), a “Threshold Tolling Event”).

Any Stand Alone Margin Loan entered into by Liberty shall be with one or more financial institutions, on customary market terms (including as to collateral) for a transaction of the kind, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit or otherwise restrict the ability of any lender (or its securities’ affiliate) or collateral agent to foreclose upon and sell, dispose of or otherwise Transfer shares of Company Common Stock or other securities pledged to secure the obligations of the borrower following an event of default under a Stand Alone Margin Loan; provided, that

each Stand Alone Margin Loan and related security agreements shall contain collateral remedy provisions that are no more favorable to lenders than those contained in the Existing Margin Loans and related security agreements. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge and agree that the Existing Margin Loans and pledge of Company Common Stock thereunder in accordance herewith (and any subsequent foreclosure on and Transfer by the lender of the pledged securities in accordance therewith) constitute permissible Transfers by Liberty under this Section 4.6(c) and that the terms thereof are customary for a transaction of that kind.

(d) Liberty shall be permitted to enter into derivative transactions with linked financing (each, an “Equity Linked Financing”) with respect to the shares of Company Common Stock Beneficially Owned by the Liberty Parties with one or more bona fide counterparties that enter into such transactions in the ordinary course of their businesses, and any shares pledged to secure Liberty’s obligations under an Equity Linked Financing shall not be subject to the Pledged Shares Basket; provided that (i) Liberty shall require each of its counterparties to take reasonable commercial measures to prevent any hedge established by such counterparty, effected by means other than brokers’ transactions executed on a securities exchange using an automated matching system or electronic order book in which such counterparty has no knowledge of the ultimate purchaser, from resulting in the sale of Company Common Stock to a person known by such counterparty to be a Prohibited Person (other than Liberty or A/N (subject to compliance with the Cap and the pricing restrictions described in the proviso to Section 4.6(b)(iv))), (ii) Liberty shall not pledge or hedge in the aggregate a number of shares of Company Common Stock in connection with its Equity Linked Financings in excess of two-thirds of the number of shares of Company Common Stock Beneficially Owned by Liberty at the time of Liberty’s entrance into such Equity Linked Financing (the “ELF Limit”), after giving pro forma effect to any Company Common Stock being acquired in such Equity Linked Financing (and without duplication of the Pledged Shares Basket), and (iii) the proceeds of any Equity Linked Financing shall be used solely for a Permitted Purpose; provided, further, (i) the parties acknowledge that a hedge by a counterparty (up to the entire number of shares of Company Common Stock pledged by Liberty under an Equity Linked Financing) shall not be double counted with the shares pledged under the Equity Linked Financing and (ii) any Excess Shares that are pledged or hedged in connection with an Equity Linked Financing, to the extent the proceeds of such Equity Linked Financing are used for one of the purposes described in clauses (A) though (E) of the definition of Permitted Purpose, shall not count toward the ELF Limit. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) compliance with the ELF Limit shall be determined at the time of the closing of the Equity Linked Financing and any additional pledge of Company Common Stock to satisfy any subsequent margin call under an Equity Linked Financing shall be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 4.6(d), (ii) the ELF Limit shall be inclusive of all Equity Linked Financings, including those the proceeds of which are used for Permitted Purposes and (iii) Liberty shall be permitted to effect stock loans of its shares of Company Common Stock in support of an Equity Linked Financing (without such loaned shares being double counted with the shares pledged under the Equity Linked Financing), provided such loaned shares do not exceed the ELF Limit or, if they do exceed the ELF Limit, they do not exceed the ELF Limit by more than the number of Excess Shares that secure indebtedness the proceeds of which are used for one of the purposes described in clauses (A) through (E) of the definition of Permitted Purpose. The terms of any pledge in connection with an Equity Linked Financing shall be no more favorable to the lenders than those contained in the existing Margin Loan and related security agreements.

(e) Liberty shall be permitted to sell exchangeable notes, debentures or similar securities referencing up to the number of shares of Company Common Stock Beneficially Owned by Liberty at the time of such sale; provided, (i) the proceeds from the sale of such securities are used for a Permitted Purpose (for the avoidance of doubt, including the Permitted Purpose described in clause (F) of the definition thereof) and (ii) securities are sold pursuant to an offering that complies with Section 4.6(b)(ix).

(f) At any time following termination of the A/N Proxy in accordance with its terms, Liberty shall be permitted to pledge shares of Company Common Stock under Stand Alone Margin Loans in excess of the Pledged Shares Basket Limit, and shall be permitted to hedge or pledge shares of Company Common Stock in connection with Equity Linked Financings in excess of the ELF Limit, provided in each case the proceeds of the indebtedness secured by any such pledge or of such Equity Linked Financing are used solely for Permitted Share Purchases to increase Liberty’s Equity Interest to equal 25.01% and such purchases are made within 12 months of such termination of the A/N Proxy.

(g) Any waiver of the provisions of this Section 4.6 to permit a Transfer by an Investor Party shall require the approval of the Company (by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Unaffiliated Directors) and the non-Transferring Investor Party (which will be deemed given in the event that the non-Transferring Investor Party is a party to such transaction).

(h) No pledgee or counterparty nor any transferee of any Investor Party shall have any of the rights described in this Agreement. No Investor Party may directly or indirectly Transfer any of its rights under this Agreement to any third Person (other than a Qualified Distribution Transferee pursuant to Section 4.5).

(i) Any Transfer by A/N of Cheetah Holdco Preferred Units shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(i) such Transfer shall not cause Cheetah Holdco LLC to be treated as a publicly traded partnership for federal Tax purposes, and shall be contingent on the Company obtaining an opinion of its counsel to such effect; and

(ii) such Transfer shall include a proportionate number of shares of Company Class B Common Stock (or, if such Transfer is to a Person that is not an A/N Party, a proportionate number of such Company Class B Common Stock shall convert to Company Common Stock upon such Transfer).

Section 4.7 Rights Plan. The Company and the Board shall not adopt any shareholder rights plan (as such term is commonly understood in connection with corporate transactions) (a “Rights Plan”) unless such plan by its terms exempts or, at the time of adoption of such plan

the Company and the Board take action reasonably necessary to exempt, any accumulation of Capital Stock by an Investor Party or a Qualified Distribution Transferee pursuant to a Distribution Transaction in compliance with Section 4.5 up to and including an Investor Party’s Equity Interest that is less than or equal to the Cap, provided that this restriction shall cease to apply with respect to an Investor Party upon the Permanent Reduction of such Investor Party’s Equity Interest below 15%. In connection with the Closing, the Certificate of Incorporation shall be amended to provide that any decision with respect to a Rights Plan, including whether to implement a Rights Plan, shall (subject to this Section 4.7) be made by a majority of the Unaffiliated Directors.

Section 4.8 Rights with Respect to Cheetah Holdco Preferred Units. The Company shall have the right to purchase Cheetah Holdco Preferred Units in connection with a potential Transfer thereof on the terms set forth in the Transaction Term Sheet.

Section 4.9 Acquisition Relating to ROFR Shares.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) for so long as the A/N Proxy is in effect, A/N may not exercise the A/N Future Preemptive Right to the extent that such exercise would cause Liberty’s Equity Interest to fall below 19.01%;(ii) following termination or expiration of the A/N Proxy, A/N may not exercise the A/N Future Preemptive Right to the extent that such exercise would cause Liberty’s Equity Interest to fall below 25.01%; provided, however, that the restrictions in clause (i) and (ii) on the exercise of the A/N Future Preemptive Right shall not limit A/N’s ability to keep its Equity Interest above the highest Ownership Threshold in Section 3.2 that A/N exceeded immediately prior to the applicable issuance of New Securities; and (iii) in the event that the New Securities proposed to be issued are securities that are not within the exceptions for permitted purchases or other acquisitions pursuant to the Section 5.03 of the Voting Agreement, dated as of April 25, 2014, between Comcast Corporation and Liberty (as assignee of Liberty Media Corporation), then Liberty will instead be permitted to purchase shares of Company Common Stock in such amounts and on such other terms as are reasonably required to effect the purposes of this Article V.

Section 5.3 Section 16b-3. So long as an Investor Party has the right to designate an Investor Director, the Board shall take such action as is necessary to cause the exemption of the Liberty Stock Issuance and the Preemptive Share Purchase by such Investor Party, as applicable, from the liability provisions of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act (“Section 16(b)”) pursuant to Rule 16b-3 (each, a “Section 16 Exemption”); provided that Liberty or A/N, as applicable, shall disgorge to the Company any profit from an otherwise non-exempt “sale” (for purposes of Section 16(b)) within six (6) months of the date of the Liberty Stock Issuance or any Preemptive Share Purchase, other than actual or deemed “sales” as a result of (i) the entry into an Equity Linked Financing or other derivative transaction (such as forwards, collars, and exchangeable debentures, notes or similar securities) permitted hereby, (ii) an extraordinary transaction approved by the Company’s stockholders or which results by operation of law (such as a merger, consolidation, reclassification or recapitalization), or (iii) tendering or exchanging in a tender or exchange offer that is not opposed by the Board and approved as a Company Change of Control pursuant to Section 3.3(a)(ii)(A), provided that such exemption shall not cover any actual sale of shares (in the case of clause (i)) or any transaction intended to hedge the market risk in connection with such Investor Party’s preemptive rights (in the case of each of clauses (i), (ii) or (iii)).

Section 5.4 Matters as to Preemptive Rights.

(a) Upon (x) the date hereof and the date of the closing of the Liberty Stock Issuance, with respect to the Initial Tranche Purchase, (y) the date of the exercise, if any, by Liberty of its rights with respect to the Second Tranche Purchase, with respect to the Second Tranche Purchase and the date of the closing of the Liberty Stock Issuance, and (z) the date of any Capital Raise Issuance Notice, M&A Issuance Notice or Other Issuance Notice, as applicable, and the date of the applicable Preemptive Share Purchase by an Investor Party, as applicable, the Company shall be deemed to represent and warrant to the Purchasing Investor Party, as of such date, that (i) the Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation and has the corporate power and authority to consummate the Preemptive Share Purchase; (ii) the Board has granted the Section 16 Exemption with respect to the acquisition of the New Securities by Liberty or A/N, as applicable, in connection with the Liberty Stock Issuance or the Preemptive Share Purchase, as applicable; (iii) the New Securities to be issued to Liberty or A/N, as applicable, in connection with the Liberty Stock Issuance or the Preemptive Share Purchase, as applicable, have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, will have been validly issued and will be fully paid and nonassessable; and (iv) solely with respect to clauses (x) and (y) above, but except to the extent disclosed to the applicable Investor Party in writing at or prior to such date, the Company has timely filed all reports required to be filed by the Company, during the twelve months immediately preceding the date of this representation, under the Exchange Act, and as of their respective filing dates, each of such filings complied in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and, at the time filed, none of such filings contained as of such date any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and when filed with the SEC, the financial statements included such filings were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP consistently applied (except as may be indicated therein or in the notes or schedules thereto), and such financial statements fairly present the consolidated financial position of the Company and its consolidated cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited interim financial statements, to normal, recurring year-end audit adjustments. With respect to any Preemptive Share Purchase arising from a Liberty Future Preemptive Right or A/N Future Preemptive Right, in lieu of providing the representation set forth in clause (iv) above, the Company will instead be deemed to have provided to the applicable Investor Party the corresponding representation (subject to any qualifications or exceptions thereto included therein, including any disclosures schedules related thereto) made to the third party in the transaction giving rise to such preemptive right, if any. The Investor Party’s remedies for any breach of the representation set forth in clause (iv) above with respect to clauses (x) and (y) above, or of any corresponding representation that is deemed made pursuant to the preceding sentence with respect to any Preemptive Share Purchase, shall be limited to the remedies provided to A/N in the Contribution Agreement or to the applicable third party, respectively, with respect to any breaches of the applicable representation (on a proportionate basis to give effect to the number of shares covered by the applicable transaction compared to the number of shares acquired by the Investor

Party). Upon the exercise of the Second Tranche Purchase, the Capital Raising Preemptive Rights, the Liberty Future Preemptive Right or the A/N Future Preemptive Right (and by Liberty’s agreement in respect of the First Tranche Purchase pursuant to Section 2.1(a)), as applicable, the applicable Investor Party shall be deemed to represent and warrant to the Company, as of the date of such exercise (and as of the date hereof in respect of the First Tranche Purchase) and as of the date of the consummation of the applicable issuance to such Investor Party, (i) that all of the representations and warranties made by such Investor Party in Section 6.2 or 6.3, as applicable, are true and correct, and (ii) that such Investor Party has performed all of its obligations hereunder. Each party to any purchase pursuant to Section 5.4(b) agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to cause the conditions to such closing to be satisfied.

(b) Subject to Sections 2.1(c), 5.1(c) and 5.2(c), the closing of the Liberty Stock Issuance and the Preemptive Share Purchase Closing shall take place at such time and as such place as the applicable parties mutually agree. The obligations of A/N and Liberty, as applicable, to consummate the Liberty Stock Issuance pursuant to Section 2.1 or the Preemptive Share Purchase pursuant to Section 5.1 or 5.2, as applicable, shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Any applicable waiting period (or extensions thereof) under the HSR Act applicable to the Liberty Stock Issuance or Preemptive Share Purchase, as applicable, shall have expired or been terminated;

(ii) No Law, order, judgment or injunction (whether preliminary or permanent) issued, enacted, promulgated, entered or enforced by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority restraining, prohibiting or rendering illegal the consummation of the Liberty Stock Issuance or Preemptive Share Purchase, as applicable, by this Agreement is in effect; and

(iii) Since the date of this Agreement (in the case of the Liberty Stock Issuance) or the date of exercise of the Preemptive Rights Purchase, as applicable, no Company Material Adverse Effect shall have occurred;

provided, that, the Company shall deliver an officer’s certificate at the applicable of the closing of the Liberty Stock Issuance and each Preemptive Share Purchase Closing to the applicable Investor Party certifying that the representations deemed made by the Company at such closing are true and correct in all respects (other than as to clause (iv) above which shall be true and correct in all material respects) and that the condition set forth in clause (iii) above has been satisfied (or, if any such representation is inaccurate or such condition has not been satisfied, a reasonably detailed description as to the reasons for such inaccuracy or the failure of the condition shall be included in such certificate), and the applicable Investor Party shall deliver an officer’s certificate at the applicable of the closing of the Liberty Stock Issuance and each Preemptive Share Purchase Closing to the Company certifying that the representations made by such Investor Party at such closing are true and correct in all material respects and that the condition set forth in clause (i) above has been satisfied (or, if any such representation is inaccurate or such condition has not been satisfied, a reasonably detailed description as to the reasons for such inaccuracy or the failure of the condition shall be included in such certificate). For the avoidance of doubt, if any conditions set forth in this Section 5.4(b) are not satisfied, the applicable Investor Party shall have no obligation to complete the Liberty Stock Issuance or any Preemptive Share Purchase Closing, as the case may be.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the rights of Liberty and A/N pursuant to Section 2.1 and this Article V shall not be assignable either directly or indirectly (other than to a Qualified Distribution Transferee), (ii) the Preemptive Share Purchase rights shall not apply in respect of the issuances pursuant to the Contribution Agreement at the Closing and (iii) Liberty shall not have any preemptive rights with respect to the Proxy Shares.

(d) In the event the closing of any purchase pursuant to Section 5.4(b) does not occur as a result of the failure of the condition specified in Section 5.4(b)(i), then provided that Liberty or A/N, as applicable, is continuing to use its reasonable best efforts to cause such condition to be satisfied, the closing of such purchase may, at the election of the purchasing party, be extended for a maximum of ninety (90) calendar days after the specified date of closing herein.

WHEREAS, the Holdco Units are exchangeable into approximately [ ] shares of Class A Common Stock (the number of shares into which the Holdco Units and shares of Class B Common Stock are convertible or exchangeable is hereinafter sometimes referred to as the “A/N Notional Shares”);

WHEREAS, the shares of Class B Common Stock issued to A/N will have variable voting rights which will reflect the votes attributable to the A/N Notional Shares as if all Holdco Units and shares of Class B Common Stock had been exchanged into Class A Common Stock immediately prior to any Record Date;

WHEREAS, as a condition to Liberty’s execution of the Stockholders Agreement, A/N has agreed to grant to Liberty a proxy to vote a portion of the votes represented by the Common Shares and a right of first refusal with respect to a Transfer of shares of Class A Common Stock (or shares of Class A Common Stock underlying any Common Units) that A/N proposes to Transfer under certain circumstances, all as provided herein; and

WHEREAS, A/N and Liberty are entering into this Agreement in order to set forth the terms and conditions of the A/N Proxy and the other matters as provided herein.

2. PROXY AND OTHER GOVERNANCE MATTERS.

(a) Irrevocable Proxy Granted to Liberty.

(i) A/N hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Liberty and any officer(s) or directors of Liberty designated as proxy or proxies by Liberty as its attorney-in-fact and proxy in accordance with the DGCL (with full power of substitution and re-substitution), for and in the name, place and stead of A/N (which, for the avoidance of doubt, includes any Permitted Transferee), to vote all Proxy Shares (at any meeting of stockholders of Charter however called or at any adjournment or postponement thereof), which will be deemed, for all purposes of this Agreement, to include the right to execute and deliver a written consent in respect of such Proxy Shares from time to time.

(ii) The proxy granted pursuant to clause (i) (the “Proxy”) above is valid and irrevocable and is coupled with an interest for purposes of Section 212 of the DGCL and will terminate automatically pursuant to Section 6. The Proxy will be binding upon A/N, its successors and assigns (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Permitted Transferee which acquires Beneficial Ownership of Common Shares), including any successor or surviving corporation resulting from any merger, consolidation or other business combination involving A/N. A/N represents that any and all other proxies heretofore given in respect of the Proxy Shares are revocable, and that such other proxies either have been revoked or are hereby revoked.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Proxy shall not apply (and Liberty will have no right to vote the Proxy Shares) in connection with any vote on (or consent to approve) any matter that is an Excluded Matter. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that more than one proposal is presented to stockholders of Charter for their consideration at a meeting (or through an action by written consent), Liberty will continue to have the right to vote the Proxy Shares on all proposals other than those relating to the Excluded Matters. Any attempt by Liberty to vote the Proxy Shares on any Excluded Matter shall be void ab initio.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the A/N Proxy is personal to Liberty and may not be assigned by Liberty by operation of law or otherwise; provided, that (i) Liberty may assign the A/N Proxy and its rights pursuant to Section 7(f) and (ii) the exercise of the A/N Proxy by any duly authorized officer of Liberty (on behalf of Liberty) will not be deemed an assignment of the A/N Proxy.

(c) Voting on Certain Matters. Each of Liberty and A/N agrees to vote or act by written consent with respect to all Common Shares with respect to which it has the power to vote (whether by proxy or otherwise) in accordance with Section 3.2(h) of the Stockholders Agreement.

(d) Restrictions on Other Agreements. Liberty and A/N agree to the restrictions set forth in Section 4.2(b), (d), (e) and (g) of the Stockholders Agreement.

(e) A/N Covenant.

(i) During the term of this Agreement, A/N agrees that it will not vote in favor of the approval of any amendment to Charter’s Certificate that would (i) reasonably be expected to result in a 40 Act Event occurring or (ii) prevent A/N from performing its obligations hereunder with respect to the A/N Proxy.

(ii) In the event of a change in Law that would reasonably be expected to result in a 40 Act Event occurring during the term of this Agreement, A/N will in good faith consider any amendments to the terms of the A/N Proxy as proposed by Liberty to prevent the occurrence of such 40 Act Event; provided, that any such amendment shall require the prior written consent of Charter pursuant to Section 7(k).

3. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL.

(a) Grant.

(i) Subject to and on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, A/N hereby grants to Liberty a right of first refusal (the “ROFR”), as provided in Section 3(b) of this Agreement, over the Covered First Securities and Covered Last Securities (collectively, the “Covered Securities”) and makes the covenants for the benefit of Liberty set forth herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) Liberty shall not have a ROFR with respect to any Transfer of Covered Securities in any transaction or series of transactions constituting a Change of Control of Charter, and (y) Liberty shall not be entitled to acquire a number of Covered Securities under this Section 3 which when combined with Voting Securities of Charter Beneficially Owned by Liberty would cause Liberty to exceed the Acquisition Cap, provided, that Liberty shall be entitled to purchase up to that number of Covered Securities which would cause Liberty not to exceed the Acquisition Cap.

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, A/N may Transfer Equity Securities comprising any Covered Securities at any time during the term of this Agreement to Permitted Transferees, and Permitted Transferees may thereafter Transfer any such Equity Securities to other Permitted Transferees, provided that any Permitted Transferee shall, prior to taking ownership of such Equity Securities, execute and deliver to Liberty the A/N Assumption Agreement, in which such Permitted Transferee agrees to be bound to the terms of this Agreement (including the Proxy) with respect to such Equity Securities. Any purported Transfer to a Permitted Transferee in violation of the foregoing sentence shall be void ab initio.

(b) Terms and Procedures. During the term of this Agreement, but subject at all times to the ability to satisfy a put of Common Units from A/N for cash in lieu of exchanging such Common Units for shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to the LLC Agreement and Exchange Agreement (it being understood that, if and when such cash-out right is exercised in respect of Common Units, Liberty shall be entitled to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock on the terms set forth in Section 4.9 of the Stockholders Agreement), A/N (including any Permitted Transferee) (as applicable, the “Transferor”) shall not Transfer any Covered Securities, except to a Permitted Transferee (subject to Section 3(a)(ii)), unless it shall first comply with the following provisions.

(i) If a Transferor determines to Transfer any Equity Securities comprising Covered Securities in a bona fide transaction to a third party purchaser or offeror, in each case, that is not a Permitted Transferee (a “Prospective Purchaser”), the Transferor will provide written notice of such determination to Liberty (a “ROFR Notice”). For the avoidance of doubt, a Transferor may provide a ROFR Notice to Liberty upon its intention to sell Covered Securities to Liberty notwithstanding the absence of a Prospective Purchaser. Such ROFR Notice will specify (A) the total number and type of Equity Securities determined to be Transferred, (B) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock or Common Units comprising the Covered Securities determined to be Transferred (the “Subject Shares”), and (C) the VWAP of the Class A Common Stock for the two (2) full Trading Days immediately prior to the date of the ROFR Notice (the “VWAP Price”). The ROFR Notice will constitute a binding, irrevocable offer by the Transferor to sell any or all Subject Shares to Liberty at the VWAP Price per Subject Share.

(ii) Within three (3) Trading Days following Liberty’s receipt of the ROFR Notice, Liberty may agree, by written notice to the Transferor (the “Liberty Notice”), to acquire the number and type of Subject Shares specified in the Liberty Notice (the “Liberty Elected Shares”) at a cash price per share equal to the VWAP Price. If a Liberty Notice meeting the requirements specified above is not delivered within such three Trading Day period, then Liberty will be deemed to have rejected the offer of the Subject Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, during such three Trading Day period, the Transferor may not effect the proposed Transfer to a Prospective Purchaser (unless prior to the expiration thereof, Liberty provides written notice to the Transferor that it is expressly rejecting the offer of the Subject Shares).

(iii) Upon delivery of a Liberty Notice meeting the requirements specified above within the specified period, the Transferor will be obligated to sell, and Liberty will be obligated to buy, all of the Liberty Elected Shares at the VWAP Price, payable in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The closing of such purchase and sale shall occur at such time and place as the parties thereto may agree, but in any event no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day after the Liberty Notice is delivered. At the closing, each of the Transferor and Liberty will represent and warrant to the other that (a) it has all requisite power and authority to consummate the purchase and sale, (b) there are no consents or notices required to be obtained or delivered to third parties or Governmental Entities (including under the HSR Act) in connection with such purchase and sale, and (c) no injunction of any Governmental Entities exists that would prevent or delay such transactions from occurring, and the Transferor will represent and warrant to Liberty that the Transferor is transferring valid title to the Liberty Elected Shares free and clear of any Lien or restriction, other than applicable federal or state securities Laws or those created by this Agreement.

(iv) If Liberty rejects or is deemed to reject the offer of the Subject Shares (or a portion of such Subject Shares) set forth in the ROFR Notice, then the Transferor will be free to Transfer or otherwise sell on the market the Subject Shares which are not Liberty Elected Shares during the period of forty-five (45) calendar days following the date of the rejection or deemed rejection of the ROFR Notice, without restriction as to price or manner of sale. If the Transferor does not complete the sale of such Subject Shares within five (5) Business Days of the expiration of such forty-five-day period, the Transferor must again comply with the terms of this Section 3 with respect to any proposed Transfer of such Subject Shares.

(v) Each Transferor covenants and agrees that, subject to the terms of the LLC Agreement and the Exchange Agreement, prior to any Transfer of Common Units to Liberty pursuant to this Section 3, the Transferor shall cause such Common Units to be exchanged for shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to the terms of the LLC Agreement and the Exchange Agreement such that Liberty shall receive shares of Class A Common Stock (in lieu of Common Units) at the closing of the transactions contemplated by the applicable ROFR Notice.

4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF A/N; ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.

(ii) Ownership of Shares. A/N is the Beneficial Owner of all Holdco Units and Common Shares (including the Proxy Shares) received pursuant to the terms of the Contribution Agreement, in each case, free and clear of all pledges, liens, proxies, claims, charges, security interests, preemptive rights, voting trusts, voting agreements, options, rights of first offer or refusal and any other encumbrances whatsoever (collectively, “Liens”) with respect to the ownership, transfer or other voting of such securities, other than encumbrances created by this Agreement and any Transaction Agreement and any restrictions on transfer under applicable federal and state securities Laws. A/N has the sole authority to direct the voting of the Common Shares in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the sole power of disposition with respect to the

Common Shares and Holdco Units, with no restrictions (other than restrictions created by this Agreement or any Transaction Agreement and any restrictions on transfer under applicable federal and state securities Laws). Except for the Common Shares and the Holdco Units, as of the date hereof, A/N does not Beneficially Own nor owns of record (i) any other equity securities of Charter or Charter Holdco or (ii) any securities that are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for such equity securities.

This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Liberty and, assuming it has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by A/N, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Liberty enforceable against Liberty in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other similar Laws relating to or affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).

6. TERM; TERMINATION. This Agreement will terminate upon the first to occur of:

(i) the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Expiration Date”; provided that such Expiration Date may be extended upon the agreement of A/N and Liberty, to a subsequent agreed upon date, in which case such subsequent date will be deemed the Expiration Date);

(ii) upon written notice by Liberty to A/N, that a 40 Act Event, as determined in the reasonable opinion of Liberty’s counsel, has occurred;

(v) a Transfer by any Liberty Party of any shares of Class A Common Stock, other than (A) a Permitted Transfer, provided, that in the case of a Transfer pursuant to clause (y) of Section 4.6(b)(ix) of the Stockholders Agreement, the Voting Interest of Liberty (including the Proxy Shares) shall equal no less than the Target Percentage following the completion of such Transfer, or within six (6) months following the completion of such Transfer, Liberty acquires such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as is necessary to cause the Voting Interest of

Liberty (including the Proxy Shares) to be no less than the Target Percentage; (B) a Transfer of shares of Class A Common Stock constituting 1% or less of the Total Voting Power, provided, that, (x) Liberty shall have promptly notified A/N in writing of such Transfer, (y) A/N shall promptly have provided Liberty with written notice that this Agreement will terminate unless Liberty cures such breach within forty-five (45) calendar days and (z) within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of notice from A/N, Liberty shall have (1) acquired such number of shares of Common Stock as is necessary to cause the Voting Interest of Liberty (including the Proxy Shares) to be no less than the Target Percentage and (2) certified in writing to A/N that the Voting Interest of Liberty (including the Proxy Shares) is no less than the Target Percentage; or (C) a Transfer by Liberty of any shares of Class A Common Stock following which Transfer Liberty retains no less than 19.01% of the Total Voting Power; or

(vi) upon the mutual written agreement of A/N and Liberty.

No party hereto will be relieved from any liability for breach of this Agreement by reason of such termination.

7. MISCELLANEOUS.

(a) Remedies. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any federal court sitting in the State of Delaware, without bond or other security being required, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

(b) Further Assurances. Each party shall cooperate and take such actions as may be reasonably requested by another party in order to carry out the provisions and purposes of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

The consents to jurisdiction set forth in this paragraph shall not constitute general consents to service of process in the State of Delaware and shall have no effect for any purpose except as provided in this paragraph and shall not be deemed

to confer rights on any Person other than the parties hereto. The parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law.

Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Any purported assignment or delegation not permitted under this Section 7(f) shall be null and void and shall not relieve the assigning or delegating party of any obligation hereunder.

(h) Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto, and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

(i) Notices. Any notices or other communications required or permitted under, or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (A) when delivered in person, (B) upon transmission by electronic mail or facsimile transmission as evidenced by confirmation of transmission to the sender (but only if followed by transmittal of a copy thereof by (x) national overnight courier or (y) hand delivery with receipt, in each case, for delivery by the second (2^nd) Business Day following such electronic mail or facsimile transmission), (C) on receipt after dispatch by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid and addressed, or (D) on the next Business Day if transmitted by national overnight courier, in each case as set forth to the parties as set forth below:

or such other address, email address or facsimile number as such party may hereafter specify by like notice to the other parties hereto.

(j) Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

(k) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers of or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless approved in writing by Liberty and A/N; provided, that any amendment to the terms of the A/N Proxy (other than the extension on the same terms hereof pursuant to Section 6(i) hereof) shall require the prior written consent of Charter following the approval of such amendment by a majority of the Unaffiliated

Directors, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except that Charter may withhold such consent pursuant to the fiduciary duties of the Unaffiliated Directors under applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt, Charter shall have no rights as a party hereto (including any consent right with respect to any amendments to the terms of the ROFR or the execution of any purchases thereunder, subject to the compliance by Liberty and A/N with their respective obligations under the Stockholders Agreement), except those rights expressly set forth in Section 2(e) and this Section 7(k).

(l) No Implied Waivers. No action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation by or on behalf of any party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of compliance with any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained herein or made pursuant hereto. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach and no failure by any party to exercise any right or privilege hereunder shall be deemed a waiver of such party’s rights or privileges hereunder or shall be deemed a waiver of such party’s rights to exercise the same at any subsequent time or times hereunder.

(m) Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to a Section, Exhibit or Schedule, such reference shall be to a Section of, or an Exhibit or Schedule to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”. The words “hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. When this Agreement contemplates a certain number of securities, whether Common Shares or otherwise, as of a particular date, such number of securities shall be deemed to be appropriately adjusted to account for stock splits, dividends, recapitalizations, combinations of shares or other change affecting the such securities.

(n) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement) and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties.
