•In the coming months, the Disney+ Basic ad-supported offering will be provided to customers who purchase the Spectrum TV Select package, as part of a wholesale arrangement;

•ESPN+ will be provided to Spectrum TV Select Plus subscribers;

•The ESPN flagship direct-to-consumer service will be made available to Spectrum TV Select subscribers upon launch and;

•Charter will maintain flexibility to offer a range of video packages at varying price points based upon different customer’s viewing preferences.
