Item 3.    Source And Amount Of Funds Or Other Consideration.

        On January 30, 2002, each of the Reporting Persons acquired their securities in the Issuer in connection with a merger between UGC Holdings, Inc. (formerly known as UnitedGlobalCom, Inc.) and a subsidiary of the Issuer pursuant to which UGC Holdings, Inc. survived the merger as a subsidiary of the Issuer, and the Issuer issued its own stock to the former stockholders of UGC Holdings, Inc. The Merger and the issuance of securities in connection therewith is more fully described in the Issuer's Amendment No. 2 to its Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-55228) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 2, 2002.

        On May 14, 2002, Albert M. Carollo, Curtis Rochelle, Gene W. Schneider, and Mark L. Schneider transferred all the shares they held in UGC Holdings, Inc. to the Issuer in exchange for an aggregate of 600,000 shares of Class A Stock pursuant to an Exchange Agreement dated May 14, 2003, among such persons and the Issuer. The shares transferred to the Issuer were originally acquired for an aggregate of $3,000,000, paid for with $6,000 cash and promissory notes. Such promissory notes remain outstanding.

        On July 21, 2003, Curtis Rochelle exercised director stock options for 80,000 shares of Class A common stock at an exercise price of $4.75 per share. He acquired such shares with personal funds.

        On July 22, 2003, Albert M. Carollo Sr. exercised director stock options for 80,000 shares of Class A common stock at an exercise price of $4.75 per share. Also, on July 22, 2003, Tina M. Wildes exercised employee stock options for 20,000 shares of Class A common stock at an exercise price of $2.25 per share. Both Mr. Carollo and Ms. Wildes used personal funds to acquire their respective shares.


Item 4.    Purpose of Transaction.

        The Reporting Persons initially acquired the shares of the Issuer for investment purposes. They have now agreed to sell their Class B Stock (other than shares of Class B Stock issuable upon exercise of options) to Liberty Media Corporation ("Liberty"). On August 18, 2003, Liberty and Gene W. Schneider, The Gene W. Schneider Family Trust, G. Schneider Holdings, LLP, Carollo Company, Albert & Carolyn Company, James R. Carollo Living Trust, John B. Carollo Living Trust, Kathleen Jaure, April Brimer Kunz, Rochelle Limited Partnership, Jim Rochelle, Rochelle Investment Limited Partnership and Tina M. Wildes (the "Selling Stockholders") executed a Share Exchange Agreement. Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, the Selling Stockholders have agreed to exchange an aggregate of 8,198,016 shares of Class B Stock for an aggregate of 12,576,966 shares of Liberty Series A common stock and cash consideration (the "Exchange").

        Upon the Closing, the Stockholders Agreement among the Reporting Persons, Liberty and the Issuer will terminate. Upon the termination of the Stockholders Agreement, certain other agreements will terminate in accordance with their respective terms, including the Founders Agreement and the Standstill Agreement and the Voting Agreement between the Issuer and the Reporting Persons described below in Item 6.

        The Share Exchange Agreement provides that it is a condition to Liberty's obligation to consummate the Exchange that (a) Messrs. Albert Carollo and Curtis Rochelle and Ms. Tina Wildes and one additional director (other than Mr. Michael Fries and any director elected by the holders of the Class C Stock) will resign from the board of directors of the Issuer and four nominees designated by Liberty prior to the Closing will be appointed to serve on the board of directors (the board of directors as so reconstituted, the "Reconstituted Board") and (b) those of the Selling Stockholders and

24



Reporting Persons that serve on the board of directors or similar governing body of any subsidiary or affiliate of the Issuer shall have tendered their resignations to the Reconstituted Board and the vacancies created by any such resignations that the Reconstituted Board shall have accepted shall have been filled with such individuals as the Reconstituted Board may have designated. The Reporting Persons anticipate that the current chief executive officer and chairman of the board of the Issuer will resign as chief executive officer of the Issuer, but remain as chairman of the board of the Issuer, prior to the consummation of the Exchange.

        Liberty has agreed in the Share Exchange Agreement to a form of new standstill agreement to be entered into between Liberty and the Issuer; however, the agreement has not yet been approved by Issuer's board of directors.

        Other than as described herein, each of the Reporting Persons does not otherwise have any present plans or proposals which relate to or would result in: (i) any acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer, or any disposition of securities of the Issuer; (ii) any extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (iii) any sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (iv) any change in the present board of directors or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board; (v) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (vi) any other material change in the Issuer's business or corporate structure; (vii) any change in the Issuer's charter, bylaws or other instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (viii) any delisting from a national securities exchange or any loss of authorization for quotation in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association of a class of securities of the Issuer; (ix) any termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act of a class of equity securities of the Issuer; or (x) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

25



      Rochelle Investment Limited Partnership: 364,502 shares, which represents less than 1%

      Jim Rochelle: 66,912 shares, which represents less than 1%

      Kathleen Jaure: 76,912 shares, which represents less than 1%

        As a result of the voting provisions of the Founders Agreement, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be part of a "group" for purposes of Rule 13d-5(b) and each member of such "group" may be deemed to beneficially own shares of the Issuer's common stock held by the other members of such "group." To the best knowledge of each of the Reporting Persons, the parties subject to the Founders Agreement beneficially own as of July 31, 2003, a total of 14,602,889 shares of Class A Stock, which assumes the conversion of 8,198,016 shares of Class B Stock for Class A Stock and 3,446,982 shares that would be acquired upon exercise of currently exercisable options, and 1,655,836 shares that would be acquired upon exercise of currently exercisable options for Class B Stock and the subsequent conversion of 105,251,673 shares of Class B Stock for Class A Stock, and represents 12.0% of the outstanding shares of Class A Stock. The percentage interests stated herein are based on 105,251,673 outstanding shares of Class A Stock and 8,198,016 outstanding shares of Class B Stock as provided by the Issuer as of July 31, 2003.

        Each share of Class A Stock is entitled to one vote per share and each share of Class B and Class C Stock is entitled to ten votes per share. Holders of Class A Stock and Class B Stock currently vote as a single class on the election of eight of the Issuer's directors. When all classes of common stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons are aggregated without giving effect to the conversion of Class B Stock, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own voting equity securities representing approximately 49.8% of the voting power with respect to a general election of eight of the twelve directors of the Issuer.

        As described in the cover pages hereto, certain of the Reporting Persons hold in the aggregate stock options for 6,225,631 shares of Class A Stock, of which (as stated above) options for 3,446,982 shares are exercisable. In addition, as described in the cover pages hereto, Gene W. Schneider holds in the aggregate stock options for 2,900,702 shares of Class B Stock, of which (as stated above) options for 1,655,836 shares are exercisable. Options held by these Reporting Persons generally vest in 48 equal monthly installments from the respective grant dates for the options. As a result, the number of shares of Class A Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons and the number of Class B Stock beneficially owned by Mr. G. Schneider will increase each month due to the vesting of options. Upon the Closing, all outstanding but unvested stock options of the Issuer will become fully vested.

        Pursuant to Rule 13d-4, except as otherwise disclosed in the cover pages hereto, each of the Reporting Persons hereby disclaims beneficial ownership for purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Act of the shares of Class A Stock and Class B Stock held by any other Reporting Person or their

26



transferees. In addition, Ms. A. Kunz, Mr. C. Rochelle, and Ms. M. Rochelle each disclaim beneficial ownership of the shares of Class A Stock held by K & R Enterprises. Also, Ms. Wildes disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Class A Stock held by her spouse.

        The outstanding shares of Class C Stock are not included in the percentage calculations set forth in this Item 5 because the holders of the Class A and Class B Stock currently vote as one class and the holders of Class C Stock currently vote separately in the election of directors, which is more fully described in Item 6 below. Also, the holders of Class C Stock have entered into a Standstill Agreement, which is also more fully described in Item 6 below.

        (b)   Pursuant to the Founders Agreement, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to share beneficial ownership of Class A Stock and Class B Stock because the Reporting Persons thereto have agreed to vote in favor of four nominees to the Issuer's Board selected pursuant to the Founders Agreement. See Item 6 below. As a result, each Reporting Person may be deemed to have shared voting power, with respect to the election of directors, over the shares of common stock beneficially owned by each other Reporting Person. As indicated in the cover pages hereto, certain of the Reporting Persons have shared dispositive power over the shares of common stock beneficially owned by such Reporting Persons.

        The Founders Agreement will terminate upon the termination of the Stockholders Agreement upon the Closing. At such time, the Reporting Persons will no longer be deemed to share beneficial ownership of the Issuer's stock.

        (c)   Except for the exercise of options described in Item 3 above and the execution of the Share Exchange Agreement described in Item 4(a) above, no Reporting Person has executed any other transaction in any class of the Issuer's common stock during the past 60 days.

        (d)   Each Reporting Person has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Class A Stock beneficially owned by such Reporting Person. To the knowledge of each Reporting Person, there is no person that has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by any other Reporting Person bound by the Founders Agreement.

        (e)   not applicable


Item 6.    Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

        Share Exchange Agreement.    On August 18, 2003, Liberty and the Selling Stockholders executed the Share Exchange Agreement. Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, Liberty will acquire 8,198,016 shares of Issuer's Class B Stock.

        Founders Agreement.    On January 30, 2002, the Reporting Persons entered into a Founders Agreement that established certain obligations among themselves as holders of the Issuer's securities. Pursuant to the terms of the Founders Agreement, the Reporting Persons agreed that Albert M. Carollo, Sr., Curtis Rochelle, Gene W. Schneider and Mark L. Schneider may nominate themselves as a nominee for the Issuer's Board of Directors as long as such persons (including permitted transferees) own at least 30% of the Class B Stock that they owned on January 30, 2002. Pursuant to the terms of the Founders Agreement, the Reporting Persons have agreed to vote in favor of said nominees or such other person as may be selected by Albert M. Carollo, Sr., Curtis Rochelle, Gene W. Schneider or Mark L. Schneider, respectively. The Founders Agreement also includes provisions regarding right of first offer with respect to any Reporting Person who desires to sell its shares in the Issuer. The Founders Agreement will terminate as to any Reporting Person when it and its permitted transferees together hold less than 10% of the class B Stock they held on January 30, 2002. The Founders Agreement terminates in its entirety upon the termination of the Stockholders Agreement. The

27



Stockholders Agreement will terminate upon the Closing of the Share Exchange Agreement. A form of the Founders Agreement can be found at Exhibit 10.3 to the Issuer's Amendment No. 2 to its Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-55228) filed with Securities and Exchange Commission.

        Stockholders' Agreement.    On January 30, 2002, the Issuer, Liberty and the Reporting Persons entered into a Stockholders Agreement. The Stockholders Agreement will terminate upon the Closing. Material terms of the Stockholders Agreement are described below.

        Subject to specified exceptions, which are summarized below, Liberty may not transfer any shares of the Class B Stock or Class C Stock except to permitted transferees, or convert any such shares into Class A Stock, unless it first offers the Reporting Persons the opportunity to purchase the shares, and no Reporting Person may transfer any shares of the Class B Stock except to permitted transferees, or convert any such shares into Class A Stock, unless such Reporting Person first offers Liberty the opportunity to purchase the shares. If either Liberty or the Reporting Persons decline to exercise their right of first offer, then the party proposing to transfer shares of the Class B Stock or Class C Stock to a third party must convert the shares to the Class A Stock immediately prior to such transfer, unless, in the case of a proposed transfer by the Reporting Persons, the number of shares being transferred by all Reporting Persons to the same transferee represents at least a majority of all shares of Class B Stock owned by the Reporting Persons, their permitted transferees, and any other person that the Reporting Persons have designated to purchase shares from Liberty pursuant to the Reporting Persons' right of first offer. Prior to any event that permits the conversion of the Class C Stock into Class B Stock, the number of shares that Liberty may propose to transfer to a third party subject to the Reporting Persons' right of first offer, when taken together with the number of shares of Class A Stock previously transferred to a third party following their conversion from Class C Stock, shall not exceed the number of shares of Class A Stock acquired after the closing of the merger transaction from parties other than United (including upon conversion of Class C Stock) or the Reporting Persons, plus the number of shares of Class A Stock that Liberty received in the merger transaction upon conversion of any of the Class A common stock of UGC Holdings, Inc. ("UGC Holdings") acquired after December 3, 2001.

        Liberty and the Reporting Persons may transfer their shares of Class B Stock and Class C Stock to permitted transferees without having to first offer them to any other party. The Reporting Persons' permitted transferees include other Reporting Persons, family members and heirs of the Reporting Persons and partnerships or trusts owned by or for the benefit of the Reporting Persons. Liberty's permitted transferees include Liberty and any entity controlled by Liberty. The parties may pledge their shares of Class B Stock in loan and hedging transactions provided that the applicable pledgee does not become a registered holder of the shares and agrees to comply with the right of first offer provisions of the stockholders agreement, with shortened notice and exercise periods, in connection with any foreclosure on the pledged shares. Pledges of the Reporting Persons' shares which pledges were in existence prior to May 25, 2001, are also allowed under the agreement. The stockholders agreement specifies some transactions that are not considered to be transfers for purposes of the agreement, and thus are generally not subject to the rights of first offer and other restrictions on transfer. Such transactions include: conversions of Class C Stock to Class B Stock or Class B or Class C Stock to Class A Stock, transfers pursuant to a tender or exchange offer approved by a majority of the Board, transfers by operation of law in connection with a merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange or similar transaction involving the Issuer, transfers pursuant to a liquidation approved by a majority of the Board and, in the case of Liberty, a transfer of (or control of) a Liberty Party that results in voting securities representing at least a majority of the outstanding voting power of such party or any ultimate parent entity of such party or its successor being beneficially owned by persons who prior to such transaction were beneficial owners of a majority of the outstanding voting power of the outstanding voting securities of Liberty (or any publicly traded class of voting securities of Liberty designed to track a specified group of assets or businesses), or who are control persons or any combination of the

28



foregoing, as long as such ultimate parent entity of such transferred party becomes a party to the stockholders agreement and the standstill agreement with the same rights and obligations as Liberty.

        If Liberty proposes to transfer a majority of its shares of Class B and Class C Stock to persons other than permitted transferees, and the Reporting Persons do not purchase such shares, then the Reporting Persons will be entitled to transfer a proportionate amount of their shares of Class B Stock to the same purchaser on no less favorable terms. If the Reporting Persons propose to transfer a majority of their shares of Class B Stock to persons other than permitted transferees, and Liberty does not purchase such shares, then Liberty will be entitled to transfer a proportionate amount of their shares of Class A Stock, Class B Stock and Class C Stock to the same purchaser on no less favorable terms.

        If the Reporting Persons propose to transfer a majority of their shares of Class B Stock to an unaffiliated third party that is not a permitted transferee, and Liberty does not purchase such shares, then the Reporting Persons can require Liberty to transfer to the same transferee on terms no less favorable than those on which the Reporting Persons transfer their shares, at the election of Liberty, either (i) all of their shares of the Class B Stock and Class C Stock, (ii) all of their shares of the Stock, or (iii) a proportionate amount of each class of the Stock that they own; provided that Liberty will be required to transfer all of their shares of the Stock, if, in connection with the proposed transfer by the Reporting Persons, Mr. Gene W. Schneider, G. Schneider Holdings, LLLP, the GWS Trust, Mr. Mark L. Schneider and the MLS Partnership propose to transfer all their shares of the Stock beneficially owned by them, which shares of Stock include shares of the Class B Stock representing at least 40.0% of the greater of the number of shares of Class B Stock owned by them on the date of the stockholders agreement and the number of shares of UGC Holdings' Class B common stock owned by them on June 25, 2000.

        Until certain conditions are met, Liberty will not convert any shares of the Class C Stock into shares of the Class A Stock if, after giving effect to the conversion, Liberty and its affiliates would have more than 50.0% of the combined voting power of the Class A Stock and the Class B Stock outstanding or would have more voting power than the Class A Stock and the Class B Stock owned by the Reporting Persons. This limitation on Liberty's right to convert (a) will terminate if the aggregate voting power of the shares of Class A Stock and Class B Stock beneficially owned by any person or group (other than a group that is controlled by certain specified Reporting Persons and that consists solely of Reporting Persons) exceeds either 50.0% of the total voting power or the voting power held by the Reporting Persons and (b) will not apply to conversions made by Liberty in connection with sale or hedging transactions or any related pledges of their shares.

        Voting Agreement.    The Reporting Persons and the Issuer are parties to a Voting Agreement that becomes effective upon certain events. The Closing causes the Voting Agreement to terminate before it becomes effective. Were it effective, the Voting Agreement would govern voting by the Reporting Persons for the Issuer's board of directors upon the occurence of certain events relating to the public debt of the Issuer and its subsidiaries.

Exhibit 7(a)


SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT

        This Share Exchange Agreement (this "Agreement") is dated as of August 18, 2003, by and among each of the Persons, severally and not jointly, whose names are set forth on the Schedule of Stockholders attached hereto as Exhibit A (each referred to herein individually as a "Stockholder" and collectively as the "Stockholders") and Liberty Media Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Liberty"). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto on Annex A.

RECITALS

        A.    Each Stockholder holds the number of shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Class B Shares"), of UnitedGlobalCom, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("UGC"), set forth opposite such Stockholder's name on Exhibit A attached hereto.

        B.    Each Stockholder desires to exchange its Class B Shares for a cash payment calculated for such Stockholder in accordance with Exhibit A hereto (the "Cash Consideration") and for shares of Liberty Series A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Liberty Shares"), and Liberty desires to acquire the Class B Shares in exchange for the Cash Consideration and the issuance to each Stockholder of the number of Liberty Shares set forth opposite such Stockholder's name on Exhibit A in a transaction that is intended to be a fully taxable exchange of Class B Shares for Liberty Shares and the Cash Consideration by all Stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes (the exchange of the Stockholders' Class B Shares for the Cash Consideration and Liberty Shares is referred to herein as the "Exchange").

        C.    By virtue of the Exchange, that certain Stockholders Agreement (the "Stockholders Agreement"), dated as of January 30, 2002, among UGC, Liberty, certain Subsidiaries of Liberty and the Persons designated on the signature pages thereof as Founders (the "Founders") will terminate in accordance with its terms. The Founders include certain of the Stockholders and certain other Persons. Upon termination of the Stockholders Agreement, the following agreements, each dated as of January 30, 2002, will terminate in accordance with their respective terms:

    (1)
    the Standstill Agreement among UGC, Liberty and certain Liberty subsidiaries (the "Old Standstill Agreement") and

    (2)
    the Voting Agreement among UGC and the Founders (the "Voting Agreement").

        D.    The Stockholders have required, as a condition of the Exchange, that Liberty enter into a standstill agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B with such changes, if any, as Liberty and UGC may mutually agree (the "New Standstill Agreement"). Liberty has required, as a condition to the Exchange, that the Stockholders and Founders enter into an agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C with such changes, if any, as Liberty and the Deciding Stockholders may mutually agree, acknowledging termination of their rights under the Stockholders Agreement, the Voting Agreement and the New United Founders Agreement (the "Termination Agreement").

        In consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual promises set forth below, the parties agree as follows:

SECTION 1: THE EXCHANGE

1.1   Class B Shares.

        In consideration of the issuance and delivery of the Liberty Shares and the payment of the Cash Consideration and in reliance on the representations and warranties of Liberty contained in this Agreement, at the Closing each Stockholder will transfer and deliver to Liberty or its designee (which for all purposes of this Agreement shall not include UGC or a Subsidiary of UGC) the number of



Class B Shares specified opposite such Stockholder's name on Exhibit A (as appropriately adjusted to reflect the effect of any stock splits, reverse splits, stock or other dividends or distributions or any similar event affecting the Class B Shares), together with the right to receive all unpaid dividends or other distributions declared or otherwise payable with respect thereto (collectively, the "Transferred B Shares").

1.2   Liberty Shares, Cash.

        In consideration of the transfer and delivery to Liberty or its designee of all and not less than all the Transferred B Shares of all Stockholders and in reliance on the representations and warranties of the Stockholders contained in this Agreement, at the Closing Liberty will issue and deliver to each of the Stockholders the number of Liberty Shares set forth opposite such Stockholder's name on Exhibit A (as appropriately adjusted to reflect the effect of any stock splits, reverse splits, stock dividends or any similar event affecting the Liberty Shares) and pay to each of the Stockholders the Cash Consideration calculated for such Stockholder in accordance with Exhibit A. In the event of a distribution by Liberty to its stockholders generally of any material assets of Liberty or of any rights to acquire any material assets of Liberty the record date or, if there is no record date, the effective date for which occurs after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Closing, in connection with which distribution options to purchase Liberty Shares outstanding under the Liberty Media Corporation 2000 Incentive Plan are generally adjusted to change the number and/or kind of securities or assets purchasable upon exercise thereof, then, at Liberty's election, either (i) the Liberty Shares issuable to each Stockholder at the Closing will be appropriately adjusted in a substantially equivalent manner or (ii) Liberty will make such arrangements as may be appropriate so that at and subject to the Closing each Stockholder will receive the assets (or, in the case of rights, rights exercisable on and subject to substantially the same terms) that would have been distributed with respect to the Liberty Shares delivered to it at the Closing had such Liberty Shares been outstanding and held by it at the record date or effective date, as applicable.

SECTION 2: CLOSING DATES; DELIVERY

2.1   Closing Date.

        The closing of the Exchange (the "Closing") shall take place at 9:00 a.m. on the third business day following the date that all conditions thereto as specified in Sections 5 and 6 have been satisfied or validly waived, at the offices of Holme Roberts & Owen llp, 1700 Lincoln Street, Suite 4100, Denver, Colorado 80203, or at such other time or place as Liberty and the Deciding Stockholders may mutually agree (such date is hereinafter referred to as the "Closing Date").

2.2   Closing Deliveries.

        At the Closing, the following shall occur:

        (a)    Deliveries of the Stockholders.    Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Stockholder shall deliver to Liberty or its designee the following: (i) one or more certificates representing the Transferred B Shares, duly endorsed and in proper form for transfer to Liberty or its designee accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer in blank, (ii) a counterpart to the Registration Rights Agreement in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto with such changes, if any, as Liberty and the Deciding Stockholders may mutually agree (the "Registration Rights Agreement") duly executed by such Stockholder, and (iii) such other documents as shall be necessary or appropriate, as Liberty or its counsel shall reasonably request, to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

2

SECTION 3: REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE STOCKHOLDERS

        Each Stockholder, severally and not jointly, represents, warrants and covenants to Liberty as follows.

3.1   Organization.

        If such Stockholder is not a natural person, such Stockholder (a) is a corporation, limited liability company, partnership, trust or other entity duly incorporated or organized, validly existing and in good standing in the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, (b) has all requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted and (c) is duly qualified or licensed and in good standing to do business in each jurisdiction in which the properties owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification or license necessary, except in the case of clause (b) or (c) where the failure to have such power or authority or to be so duly qualified or licensed and in good standing has not had and will not have a material adverse effect on the ability of such Stockholder to perform its obligations under, and consummate the transactions contemplated by, this Agreement (a "Stockholder Material Adverse Effect").

3.2   Authority.

        Such Stockholder, in the case of a natural person, has all requisite legal capacity and, in the case of a Stockholder that is not a natural person, has all requisite power and authority, in each case, to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Other Agreements and to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder. All action required on such Stockholder's part for the execution and delivery of this Agreement and, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions specified in Section 6, the execution and delivery of the Other Agreements and the performance by such Stockholder of its obligations under this Agreement and the Other Agreements (including the transfer and delivery of the Transferred B Shares), have been effectively taken. This Agreement has been, and prior to the Closing the Other Agreements will have been, duly executed and delivered by such Stockholder. This Agreement is, and the Other Agreements when executed and delivered will be, legal, valid and binding obligations of such Stockholder enforceable in accordance with their terms, except (a) as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar Laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors' rights, (b) to the extent that general principles of equity restrict the availability of equitable remedies and (c) to the extent that the enforceability of the indemnification provisions in Section 9 of this Agreement and in Section 4 of the Registration Rights Agreement may be limited by applicable Laws.

3.3   No Violation.

Actions by and notice to the Deciding Stockholders shall be deemed for purposes of this Section 8.2 to be actions by and notices to all Stockholders.

13



8.3   Access to Information.

        Upon reasonable notice, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Stockholder will, and will use reasonable efforts to cause UGC and each of its Subsidiaries to, afford Liberty and its accountants, attorneys and other representatives reasonable access during the period prior to the Closing to (a) all of such Stockholder's properties, books, Contracts, commitments and records relating to UGC and its Subsidiaries, (b) all properties, books, Contracts, commitments and records of UGC and its Subsidiaries, and (c) all other information in the possession of such Stockholder, UGC and UGC's Subsidiaries concerning the business, properties and personnel of UGC and its Subsidiaries as Liberty may reasonably request. No information or knowledge obtained in any investigation pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation, warranty or condition contained herein.

8.4   No Solicitation.

        (a)   Such Stockholder has ceased all, and will not engage in any, discussions and/or negotiations with any Persons directly or indirectly relating to the sale or other disposition of all or any portion of the Class B Shares, or the voting thereof (an "Alternate Transaction"). Each Stockholder will not, directly or indirectly through any officer, director, employee, representative, agent, financial advisor or otherwise, solicit, initiate or encourage inquiries or proposals or offers from any Person regarding an Alternate Transaction.

        (b)   Each Stockholder will not, and will use its reasonable efforts to cause UGC and each of its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, through any officer, director, employee, representative, agent, financial advisor or otherwise, solicit, initiate or encourage inquiries or submission of proposals or offers from any Person relating to any sale or other disposition of all or any portion of the assets, business, properties (other than immaterial or insubstantial assets in the ordinary course of business), patents, patent applications or other intellectual property (including covenants not to sue, cross-licenses and exclusive licenses) of, or any equity interest in, UGC or any of its Subsidiaries or any business combination involving UGC or any of its Subsidiaries, whether by merger, consolidation, purchase or sale of assets, tender offer or otherwise or participate in any negotiation regarding, or furnishing to any other Person any information with respect to, or otherwise cooperate in any way with, or assist in, facilitate or encourage, any effort or attempt by any other Person to do or seek to do any of the foregoing (any of the foregoing, an "Extraordinary Transaction"). In connection with any Extraordinary Transaction, nothing in this Section 8.4(b) shall be construed as requiring any director or officer of UGC or any of its Subsidiaries that are not wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by UGC to take any action that will constitute a breach of such director's or officer's fiduciary duties to the stockholders of UGC or such Subsidiary.

        (c)   Each Stockholder will vote or cause to be voted all relevant shares of capital stock of UGC or of any other Person held by such Stockholder and its respective Affiliates (other than UGC and its Subsidiaries) against any Extraordinary Transaction or Alternate Transaction that is presented or proposed at any time after the date of this Agreement and prior to the termination of this Agreement. Such Stockholder will notify Liberty immediately if any inquiries or proposals are received by, any information is requested from, or any negotiations or discussions are sought to be initiated or continued with such Stockholder, or, to the actual knowledge of such Stockholder and subject to any duties of confidentiality to which such Stockholder may be subject as a member of the board of directors or other governing body of UGC or any of its Subsidiaries, UGC or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case in connection with any of the foregoing.

14



8.5   Boards of Directors.

        Each applicable Stockholder shall tender, and use its reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Founders to tender, their resignations from the Board of Directors of UGC and the boards of directors or other governing bodies of the Subsidiaries of UGC as required to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 5.10 and, with respect to the boards of directors or other governing bodies of the Subsidiaries of UGC, thereafter as may be requested from time to time by the Reconstituted UGC Board.

8.6   No Liquidation.

        No Stockholder that is a corporation or that is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes shall distribute to the securityholders of such Stockholder substantially all such Stockholder's assets, or liquidate such Stockholder, for a period of two years following the Closing.

8.7   Private Placement.

        Each Stockholder shall, from time to time, provide such assurances as Liberty may reasonably request to confirm the matters set forth in Section 3.9.

SECTION 9: INDEMNIFICATION

9.1   Indemnification by Stockholders.

        Each of the Stockholders, severally and jointly together with any other Stockholder Controlled by, Controlling or under common Control with such Stockholder, covenants and agrees, on the terms and subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, from and after the Closing, to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Liberty and its officers, directors, partners, employees, consultants, agents and attorneys from and against:

        (a)   all losses, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, obligations, costs and expenses ("Losses") directly or indirectly resulting from or arising out of (A) any representation or warranty of such Stockholder contained in this Agreement not being true and correct when made or deemed made or (B) any nonperformance or breach of any covenant or agreement of such Stockholder contained in this Agreement; and

        (b)   all claims, actions, suits, proceedings, demands, judgments, assessments, fines, interest, penalties, costs and expenses (including settlement costs and reasonable legal, accounting, experts', and other fees, costs and expenses) relating to or resulting from any of the foregoing.

9.2   Indemnification by Liberty.

        Liberty covenants and agrees, on the terms and subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, from and after the Closing, to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Stockholders and their respective (as applicable) officers, directors, partners, employees, consultants, agents and attorneys from and against:

        (a)   all Losses directly or indirectly resulting from or arising out of (A) any representation or warranty of Liberty contained in this Agreement not being true and correct when made or deemed made or (B) any nonperformance or breach of any covenant or agreement of Liberty contained in this Agreement; and

        (b)   all claims, actions, suits, proceedings, demands, judgments, assessments, fines, interest, penalties, costs and expenses (including settlement costs and reasonable legal, accounting, experts', and other fees, costs and expenses) relating to or resulting from any of the foregoing.

15



9.3   Indemnification Procedures.

        (a)   Any Person seeking indemnification under Section 9.2 or 9.3 hereof will give the party from whom such indemnification is sought (the "Indemnifying Party") prompt (which shall not be later than ten business days following receipt of written notice of such third party claim) notice of any third party claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding with respect to which such indemnification is sought; provided, however, that failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure (except that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any expenses incurred during the period in which such notifying Person (the "Indemnified Party") failed to give such notice). Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, within five business days after the Indemnified Party's receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to the third party claim. In the case of any such third party claim, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled, at the sole expense and liability of the Indemnifying Party to exercise full control of the defense, compromise or settlement of any third party claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding unless the Indemnifying Party within a reasonable time after the giving of such notice by the Indemnified Party shall: (i) deliver a written confirmation to such Indemnified Party that the indemnification provisions of Section 9.1 or 9.2 (as the case may be) are applicable to such claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding and that the Indemnifying Party will indemnify such Indemnified Party in respect of such claim, action or proceeding pursuant to the terms of Section 9.1 or 9.2 (as the case may be), (ii) notify such Indemnified Party in writing of the Indemnifying Party's intention to assume the defense thereof, and (iii) retain legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party to conduct the defense of such claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding.

        (b)   If the Indemnifying Party so assumes the defense of any such claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding in accordance herewith, then such Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in any manner that the Indemnifying Party reasonably may request in connection with the defense, compromise or settlement thereof. If the Indemnifying Party so assumes the defense of any such claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, or settlement thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party has agreed to pay such fees and expenses, (ii) any relief other than the payment of money damages is sought against the Indemnified Party or (iii) such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by its counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party or that there may be a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in the conduct of the defense of such action (in either of which cases the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to control the defense, compromise or settlement of such action on behalf of the Indemnified Party), and in any such case described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party. No Indemnified Party shall settle or compromise or consent to entry of any judgment with respect to any such action for which it is entitled to indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, unless the Indemnifying Party shall have failed, after reasonable notice thereof, to undertake control of such action in the manner provided above in this Section 9.3 to the extent the Indemnifying Party was entitled to do so pursuant to Section 9.3. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of such Indemnified Party, settle or compromise or consent to entry of any judgment with respect to any such claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding (x) in which any relief other than the payment of money damages is or may be sought against such Indemnified Party, or (y) that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant, party conducting such investigation, plaintiff or petitioner to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability with respect to such claim, action, suit or proceeding.

SECTION 10: MISCELLANEOUS

10.1   Governing Law.

        This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Colorado, without giving effect to the conflicts of laws principles thereof, except that the Delaware General Corporation Law shall govern with respect to matters of corporate law.

10.2   Survival.

        The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made herein shall survive the Closing of the transactions contemplated hereby.

10.3   Successors and Assigns.

        Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any Stockholder or Liberty, in whole or in part (whether by operation of law or otherwise), without the prior written consent of Liberty or the Deciding Stockholders, respectively, and any attempt to make any such assignment without such consent shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the rights and obligations of The Gene W. Schneider Family Trust may be assigned to The GWS Trust in connection with a transfer by The Gene W. Schneider Family Trust of all of its assets and (b) the rights and obligations of Liberty may be assigned to one or more Affiliates of Liberty, in each case provided that (i) each such Person executes an instrument agreeing to be bound by this Agreement to the same extent as the assigning party, (ii) the assigning party shall not be released from its obligations under this Agreement and (iii) such assignment shall not adversely affect the ability of the parties to timely satisfy the conditions of the Closing. Subject to the foregoing, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, assigns, heirs, executors, and administrators of the parties hereto.

10.4   Entire Agreement; Amendment.

        This Agreement (including the Exhibits, Annexes and Schedules), and the Other Agreements constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the subject matter hereof and thereof. Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be (a) amended other than by a written instrument signed by Liberty and the Deciding Stockholders or (b) waived other than by a written instrument signed by, as applicable, Liberty or the Deciding Stockholders; provided, however, that any such amendment or waiver by the Deciding Stockholders that adversely affects the rights or obligations of any particular Stockholder (or group of Stockholders) differently than the Stockholders generally must be approved by that Stockholder (or, if applicable, Stockholders holding a majority of the Class B Shares held by such group of Stockholders).

10.5   Confidentiality.

        Each party hereto agrees that, except with the prior written consent of the other parties or as required by law or stock exchange listing requirements (including any listing agreement), it shall at all times keep confidential and not divulge, use, furnish or make accessible to anyone (other than the representatives or Affiliates of Liberty or any Stockholder) any confidential information, knowledge or data concerning or relating to the business or financial affairs of any other party to which such party has been or shall become privy by reason of this Agreement (including Section 8.3), discussions or negotiations relating to this Agreement or the performance of its obligations hereunder. The provisions of this Section 10.5 shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, the provisions of any separate nondisclosure agreement executed by the parties hereto and any confidentiality obligation of any party to UGC or any of its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the obligations of confidentiality contained herein (the "Confidentiality Obligations"), as they relate to the

17



Exchange shall not apply to the "tax structure" or "tax treatment" of the Exchange (as these terms are used in Section 1.6011-4(b)(3) (or any successor provision) of the Treasury Regulations (the "Confidentially Regulation") promulgated under Section 6011 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), and each party (and any employee, representative or agent of such party) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the "tax structure" and "tax treatment" of the Exchange (as these terms are defined in the Confidentiality Regulation). In addition, each party acknowledges that it has no proprietary or exclusive rights to any tax matter or tax idea relating to the Exchange.

10.6   Notices.

        All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing, shall be effective when given, and shall in any event be deemed to be given upon receipt, or if earlier, (a) five days after deposit with the U.S. Postal Service or other applicable postal service, if delivered by first class mail, postage prepaid, (b) upon delivery, if delivered by hand, (c) one business day after the business day of deposit with Federal Express or similar overnight courier, freight prepaid or (d) one business day after the business day of facsimile transmission, if delivered by facsimile transmission with copy by first class mail, postage prepaid, and shall be addressed as follows, or at such other address as a party may designate by written notice to the other parties to this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10.6 (except that such notice of change of address will not be deemed given until actually received):

      (i)

        Baker Botts L.L.P.
        30 Rockefeller Plaza
        New York, New York 10112

10.7   Delays or Omissions.

        It is agreed that no delay or omission to exercise any rights, power or remedy accruing to any party upon any breach, default or noncompliance by another party under this Agreement shall impair any such right, power or remedy, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach, default or noncompliance, or any acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach, default or noncompliance thereafter occurring. It is further agreed that any waiver, consent or approval of any kind or character on Liberty's or any Stockholder's part of any breach, default or noncompliance under this Agreement or any waiver on such party's part of any provisions or conditions of the Agreement must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing and as specified in Section 10.4. All remedies, either under this Agreement or otherwise afforded to any party, shall be cumulative and not alternative, except as specifically provided otherwise.

18



10.8   Headings.

        All Section headings are for reference and convenience purposes only and are not entitled to, nor should they, be accorded substantive effect.

10.9   Counterparts; Facsimile Copies.

        This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, and all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Facsimile copies hereof may be signed as counterpart originals.

10.10   Severability.

        In the event that any provision of this Agreement becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect without said provision; provided that no such severance shall be effective if it materially changes the economic benefit of this Agreement to any party.

10.11   Interpretation.

        When a reference is made in this Agreement to Exhibits, Annexes, Schedules, Articles or Sections, such reference shall be to an Exhibit, Annex, Schedule, Article or Section to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The words "include," "includes," "included" and "including" when used herein shall be deemed in each case 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. The term "or" is not exclusive. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. Any reference in this Agreement to the term "business day" shall mean any calendar day other than a Saturday, Sunday or day on which the banks in New York, New York or Denver, Colorado are authorized by law to close. Any reference in this Agreement to the term "day" without the qualification of "business" shall mean any calendar day. Whenever reference is made to a Person's "actual knowledge" such term means the Person's actual knowledge of the matter indicated, it being understood that such Person is under no obligation to make inquiries or investigations with respect to such matter. Whenever a party is required to use "reasonable efforts" to cause UGC or its Subsidiaries or their respective directors, officers or representatives to take, or refrain from taking, an action, such term means that such party will take such actions as it can take without violating, or causing such director, officer or representative to violate, any fiduciary duties such party has to UGC, any of its Subsidiaries or any other Person.

10.12   Rules of Construction.

        The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any Law or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.

10.13   Expenses.

        Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including the fees and expenses of its advisers, accountants, legal counsel, brokers and finders) shall be paid by the party incurring such expense. In the event of any

19



action, suit or proceeding, at law or in equity, among the parties relating to the enforcement of the parties' rights and obligations under or in respect of this Agreement, the party that prevails in such action, suit or proceeding shall be entitled to reimbursement from the non-prevailing party of its costs and expenses reasonably incurred relating to such enforcement (or defense).

10.14   Further Assurances.

        If, at any time after the Closing, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement with respect to the transactions consummated at the Closing and to vest Liberty with full title to the Transferred B Shares delivered at the Closing, each party shall, upon the request and at the expense of the other party, and without further consideration, execute and deliver such other instruments of conveyance and transfer, fully cooperate with the requesting party and take such other actions as the requesting party reasonably may request.

10.15   Enforcement.

        Each party acknowledges that money damages would be both incalculable and an insufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by such party and that any such breach would cause the other party irreparable harm. Accordingly, each party agrees that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement by a party, the other parties, in addition to any other remedies at law or in equity they may have, shall be entitled, without the requirement of posting a bond or providing a cross-undertaking in damages or other security, to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and an order for specific performance.

10.16   Consent to Jurisdiction.

        Each party will submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court located in the State of Colorado having subject matter jurisdiction in the event of any dispute arising out of this Agreement. Each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any such federal or state court located in the State of Colorado and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

10.17   Waiver of Jury Trial.

        EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT.

10.18   No Broker's Fees.

        Each party hereto represents and warrants that no agent, broker, investment banker, Person or firm acting on behalf of or under the authority of such party or any of its Affiliates is or will be entitled to any broker's or finder's fee or any other commission directly or indirectly in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. Each party hereto further agrees to indemnify each other party for any claims, losses or expenses incurred by such other party as a result of the representation in this Section 10.18 being untrue.

    SECTION 12    Acquisition of Common Stock; Other Covenants.

        12.1 Liberty shall not, and shall not permit any of its Controlled Affiliates to, acquire any additional shares of Common Stock if immediately after such acquisition the number of shares of Common Stock owned, in the aggregate, by Liberty and its Controlled Affiliates would exceed the Maximum Percentage (a "Triggering Acquisition"), unless before or promptly following the Triggering Acquisition, or in connection therewith, Liberty commences or causes to be commenced a Buyout Transaction that complies with one of the following provisions of this Section 2. Liberty shall not be in breach of this Section 2(a) solely because Liberty and its Controlled Affiliates own, in the aggregate, a number of shares of Common Stock exceeding the Maximum Percentage after and because of any action taken by United or any Affiliate of United (including the repurchase or redemption by United or any of its Affiliates of Equity Securities or Rights, the issuance of Equity Securities or Rights, including pursuant to an offer by United or any of its Affiliates to its security holders of rights to subscribe for Equity Securities, the expiration of Rights, or the declaration by United of a dividend in respect of any class of Equity Securities payable at the election of such security holders either in cash or in Equity Securities) in respect of which Liberty or a Controlled Affiliate of Liberty shall not have taken any action except as permitted to be taken by holders of Equity Securities or Rights in their capacities as such (including as a result of an election not to tender any of such Equity Securities owned by Liberty or its Controlled Affiliates pursuant to any such offer to repurchase, an election to purchase Equity Securities or Rights pursuant to any such subscription offer or an election to be paid a dividend in respect of the Equity Securities owned by Liberty or its Controlled Affiliates in Equity Securities or Rights instead of cash).

        12.2 The Buyout Transaction may be effected as a Short-Form Merger on such terms and conditions as Liberty or its Controlled Affiliate may determine in its sole discretion. A Buyout Transaction in the form of a Short-Form Merger will be deemed to have been promptly commenced if a public announcement of the intention to effect a Short-Form Merger is made promptly following the Triggering Acquisition and Liberty or the applicable Controlled Affiliate commences taking the steps required to effect the Short-Form Merger as promptly as practicable thereafter.

3


        12.3 If the Buyout Transaction is to be effected other than through a Short-Form Merger, then Liberty or the applicable Controlled Affiliate shall disclose to the Board the manner in which the Buyout Transaction is to be effected and the consideration to be paid or delivered therefor, which notice, in the case of a tender offer or exchange offer or similar transaction, may be given contemporaneously with the commencement thereof.

        12.4 If the Buyout Transaction is to be effected by operation of law through a merger, consolidation or other reorganization (other than a Short-Form Merger) and a majority of the Independent Directors have not voted against approval by the Board of the proposed transaction, then such Buyout Transaction may be effected on the terms and for the consideration approved by the Board. If a majority of the Independent Directors have voted against approval by the Board of the proposed transaction, United shall promptly so notify Liberty or the applicable Controlled Affiliate and the Buyout Transaction will be suspended pending the determination of the Appraised Value of a share of Common Stock pursuant to Section 2(f). Following such determination, Liberty or the applicable Controlled Affiliate may, but will not be obligated to, proceed with the Buyout Transaction provided that the value of the consideration per share of Common Stock to be received by the holders of Unaffiliated Stock, as determined by the Board at the time the definitive agreement for such Buyout Transaction is approved, is not less than the Appraised Value.

        12.5 If the Buyout Transaction is a tender offer, exchange offer or other transaction that is not by operation of law, and a majority of the Independent Directors have not voted to recommend against acceptance of such Buyout Transaction, then such Buyout Transaction may be effected for the same or any greater consideration than that notified to the Board. If a majority of the Independent Directors have voted to recommend against acceptance of such Buyout Transaction, then United shall promptly so notify Liberty or the applicable Controlled Affiliate and the Buyout Transaction will be suspended pending the determination of the Appraised Value of a share of Common Stock pursuant to Section 2(f). Following such determination, Liberty or the applicable Controlled Affiliate may, but will not be obligated to, proceed with the Buyout Transaction provided that the value of the consideration offered per share of Common Stock, as determined by the Board at the time the transaction is permitted to proceed, is not less than the Appraised Value.

        12.6 Within ten days after Liberty's receipt of a notice from United pursuant to Section 2(d) or 2(e) above, each of Liberty and United, by action of a committee of the Board comprised solely of the Independent Directors, shall select a Qualified Appraiser, each of which Qualified Appraisers shall make a determination (each such determination, an "Appraisal") of the Fair Price of a share of the Common Stock and shall deliver the written report of such Appraisal to the parties within 20 days following the retention of such Qualified Appraiser. If the higher of such Appraisals is less than or equal to 110% of the lower of such Appraisals, then the Appraised Value shall be equal to the arithmetic average of such Appraisals. If the higher of such Appraisals is greater than 110% of the lower of such Appraisals, then a third Qualified Appraiser shall be selected by the first two Qualified Appraisers within five days after the final initial Appraisal is completed. The third Qualified Appraiser shall make an Appraisal of the Fair Price of a share of the Common Stock and shall deliver the written report of such Appraisal within 20 days following the retention of such third Qualified Appraiser, and the Appraised Value shall equal the arithmetic average of the two of such three Appraisals closest in value (or if there are no such two, then of all three Appraisals).

        12.7 In connection with any Appraisal of the Fair Price of a share of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement, United shall, and shall cause its Controlled Affiliates to, cooperate with such Appraisal and any Qualified Appraiser. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, in connection with any Appraisal United will, and will cause each of its Controlled Affiliates to, (i) provide all requested books, records and financial information regarding such Person and such Person's business, assets, properties and financial condition to each such Qualified Appraiser, (ii) make its officers available to such Qualified Appraiser in order to answer questions about such

4



Person's business, assets, properties and financial condition and (iii) otherwise take such actions as may be necessary in order to ensure that the Qualified Appraisers are in possession of all information necessary to complete the Appraisals within the time frames specified above.

    SECTION 13    Control Transaction.

        Liberty shall not effect or permit to be effected a Control Transfer, unless the Person that, after giving effect to such transaction, will Control United, delivers to United an undertaking to become a party to this Agreement with the same rights and obligations as if it had been named as Liberty hereunder, and upon such delivery Liberty shall be released from all obligations under this Agreement.

    SECTION 14    Stockholders Agreement.

        In consideration of the covenants made by Liberty herein, United hereby agrees that the covenants made by it in Section 10(a) of the Stockholders Agreement shall remain in effect, notwithstanding the termination of the Stockholders Agreement, with the same force and effect as if set forth in full herein.

    SECTION 15    Representations and Warranties.

        (b)   Such party has obtained all authorizations, permits, approvals or consents of any Persons, including all authorizations, permits, approvals or consents of any Governmental Authorities, necessary to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement, except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, adversely affect such party's ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

        SECTION 16    Remedies.    Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that in the event of any breach of this Agreement, the nonbreaching party would be irreparably harmed and could not be made whole by monetary damages. Accordingly, the parties to this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled hereunder or at law or in equity, shall be entitled to compel specific performance of this Agreement.

        SECTION 17    Termination.    The provisions of this Agreement will expire on June 25, 2010.
