ITEM 1.01. ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

On May 23, 2015, Charter Communications, Inc. (“Charter” or the “Company”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Mergers (the “Merger Agreement”) with Time Warner Cable Inc. (“TWC”), CCH I, LLC (“New Charter”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, Nina Corporation I, Inc., Nina Company II, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of New Charter, and Nina Company III, LLC, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of New Charter, pursuant to which the parties will engage in a series of transactions that will result in Charter and TWC becoming wholly owned subsidiaries of New Charter (the “Mergers”), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement.

In connection with the Merger Agreement, the Company also entered into an investment agreement with Liberty Broadband Corporation (“Liberty”), pursuant to which Liberty agreed to purchase $4.3 billion of New Charter Class A common stock (“New Charter common stock”) (in addition to the previously agreed purchase of $700 million of New Charter common stock) to provide partial financing for the Mergers (the “Investment Agreement”) and a contribution agreement with Liberty and Liberty Interactive Corporation (“Liberty Interactive” and together with Liberty, the “Liberty Parties”), pursuant to which the Liberty Parties agreed to exchange their respective shares of TWC common stock for shares of New Charter common stock (“Liberty Contribution Agreement” and, together with the Investment Agreement, the “Liberty Agreements”). Additionally, in connection with the Merger Agreement, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement (the “Stockholders Agreement”) with New Charter, Liberty and Advance/Newhouse Partnership (“A/N”), which Stockholders Agreement will replace the Company’s existing stockholders agreement with Liberty, dated September 29, 2014, and supersede the Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement with New Charter, Liberty and A/N, dated March 31, 2015. In connection with the Merger Agreement, Charter also amended the contribution agreement (“BHN Contribution Agreement”) among A/N, A/NPC Holdings LLC, New Charter and Charter Communications Holdings, LLC, dated March 31, 2015 (“Amendment No. 1 to the BHN Contribution Agreement”) principally to align the contribution contemplated thereby with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

The Merger Agreement was approved by the respective boards of directors of Charter and TWC, Amendment No. 1 to the BHN Contribution Agreement has been approved by the respective boards of directors of Charter and Liberty and the Investment Agreement, the Liberty Contribution Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement have been approved by the members of the board of directors of Charter who are not affiliated with the Liberty Parties and by the respective boards of directors of the Liberty Parties.

Merger Agreement

As part of the Mergers, Charter and TWC will undergo a series of transactions pursuant to which both Charter and TWC will become wholly owned subsidiaries of New Charter. After giving effect to the transactions, New Charter will be the new public company parent that will hold the operations of the combined companies.

Upon consummation of the Mergers, each share of TWC common stock (other than treasury shares held by TWC and TWC stock held by the Liberty Parties) will be converted into the right to receive $100 in cash and shares of New Charter common stock equivalent to 0.5409 shares of Charter Class A common stock (“Charter common stock”). Each stockholder of TWC will also have the option to elect (an “Electing Stockholder”) to receive for each TWC share (other than treasury shares held by TWC and TWC stock held by the Liberty Parties) $115 in cash and shares of New Charter common stock equivalent to 0.4562 shares of Charter common stock (in either case, the “Merger Consideration”). Upon the consummation of the Mergers, each share of TWC common stock held by the Liberty Parties will convert only into New Charter common stock.

TWC’s equity awards held by individuals who are employed by TWC as of the consummation of the Mergers will convert into New Charter equity awards based on an exchange ratio determined based on the value a TWC stockholder, other than an Electing Stockholder, would receive in the Mergers, while equity awards held by non-employee directors and former employees will be settled for cash in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. Charter’s equity awards will convert into New Charter equity awards based on an exchange ratio designed to substantially preserve the value of the awards immediately before and immediately after the consummation of the Mergers.

The Company and TWC each made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement, including, among others, covenants by each of the Company and TWC to, subject to certain exceptions, conduct its respective business in the ordinary course during the interim period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the consummation of the Mergers. TWC is permitted under the terms of the Merger Agreement to continue paying regular quarterly cash dividends not to exceed $0.75 per share per quarter. In the Merger Agreement, TWC (and its applicable subsidiary) agreed to waive the right of first offer (the “ROFO”) that they have to acquire the assets of Bright House Networks, LLC during the pendency of the Mergers. This waiver will expire if the Merger Agreement is terminated but the waiver will again be effective if within 9 months following a termination, TWC enters into an agreement or understanding in respect of, or consummates, an alternative acquisition transaction.

The obligation of the parties to consummate the Mergers is subject to customary closing conditions, including, among other things, (1) the approval and adoption of the Merger Agreement and related transactions by the stockholders of both companies (including the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares of Charter common stock (excluding shares beneficially owned by Liberty and its affiliates) with respect to the applicable transactions with the Liberty Parties); (2) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”), without the imposition of one or more conditions that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Charter, TWC and their respective subsidiaries, taken as a whole (a “Burdensome Condition”); (3) the receipt of applicable regulatory approvals from the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) and certain other regulatory approvals, without the imposition of a Burdensome Condition; (4) the absence of certain legal restraints and prohibitions; (5) the effectiveness of the Charter registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”); and (6) the approval of the listing on the NASDAQ of New Charter common stock to be issued in connection with the Mergers. The obligation of each party to consummate the Mergers is also conditioned upon the other party’s representations and warranties being true and correct (subject to certain materiality exceptions), the other party having performed in all material respects its material obligations under the Merger Agreement, the other party having not suffered a material adverse effect and the receipt by each party of certain opinions from its counsel regarding the tax treatment of the transactions.

The Merger Agreement requires each of Charter and TWC to call and hold a special stockholder meeting and, subject to certain exceptions, requires the board of directors of each company to recommend that the stockholders of such company approve the transactions. Prior to such approval, the board of directors of each company may, upon receipt of a superior proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or the occurrence of an intervening event (as defined in the Merger Agreement), change its recommendation that the stockholders of such company approve the transactions, subject to complying with notice and other specified conditions, including giving the other party the opportunity to propose changes to the Merger Agreement in response to such superior proposal or other circumstances. If the board of directors of either company changes its recommendation, the other party may terminate the Merger Agreement and receive a termination fee as described below. The company changing its recommendation does not have the right to terminate the Merger Agreement in connection with such a change of recommendation, however, the other party does have the right to do so following such a change of recommendation. In addition, the Merger Agreement prohibits each party from soliciting alternative acquisition proposals in certain circumstances.

The Merger Agreement contains certain other termination rights for each of Charter and TWC, including the right of each party to terminate the Merger Agreement if the Mergers have not been consummated by May 23, 2016, subject to each party’s right to extend this end date until November 23, 2016 if all closing conditions (other than receipt of antitrust and other specified regulatory approvals) have been satisfied by May 23, 2016.

3

Charter has agreed to pay TWC a $2 billion termination fee, in certain circumstances, if the parties fail to obtain required Department of Justice or FCC approvals, or a $1 billion termination fee, in certain circumstances, if the parties fail to obtain certain other required regulatory approvals. In addition, TWC has agreed to pay Charter a $2 billion termination fee, and Charter has agreed to pay TWC a $1 billion termination fee, in certain circumstances relating to a third-party alternative transaction or a change in the other party’s board recommendation.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Liberty Agreements

In connection with the Merger Agreement, Charter and Liberty entered into an Investment Agreement, pursuant to which Liberty agreed to invest $4.3 billion in New Charter to partially finance the cash portion of the Merger Consideration. New Charter will issue shares to Liberty based on the same Merger Consideration value that is being paid to the TWC stockholders. The Liberty investment is subject to several conditions, including Charter stockholder approval (excluding Liberty-owned shares), satisfaction of conditions set out in the Merger Agreement and HSR Act clearance.

Charter and the Liberty Parties also entered into a Contribution Agreement, pursuant to which the Liberty Parties agreed to exchange their respective shares of TWC common stock for shares of New Charter common stock equivalent to 1.106 shares of Charter common stock for each share of TWC common stock. The obligations of the parties to complete the exchange under the Liberty Contribution Agreement are conditioned on the satisfaction of conditions set out in the Merger Agreement.

The foregoing descriptions of the Liberty Contribution Agreement and Investment Agreement do not purport to be complete, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Liberty Contribution Agreement and the Investment Agreement, respectively, which are filed herewith as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

Stockholders Agreement

In connection with the Merger Agreement, the Company entered into the Stockholders Agreement. The Company’s existing stockholders agreement with Liberty will remain in effect until the earlier of the closing of the Mergers or the closing of the contribution (as defined in the BHN Contribution Agreement) (“BHN Contribution”), although certain provisions of the Stockholders Agreement became effective upon execution thereof. In connection with the execution of the Stockholders Agreement, and in addition to Liberty’s agreement to purchase $4.3 billion of New Charter common stock pursuant to the Investment Agreement, Liberty agreed to purchase, prior to and contingent upon the closing of the BHN Contribution from New Charter $700 million of New Charter common stock for $172.9963 per share.

Under the terms of the Stockholders Agreement, the number of New Charter directors will be fixed at 13, and will include New Charter’s chief executive officer. Upon the closing of the BHN Contribution, two designees selected by A/N and three designees selected by Liberty will become members of the board of directors. The remaining seven directors will be independent directors selected by the nominating committee of the New Charter board by the approval of both a majority of the committee and a majority of the directors that were not appointed by either A/N or Liberty. Going forward, Liberty will be entitled to designate three nominees to be elected as director and A/N will be entitled to designate two nominees to be elected as director, in each case provided that each maintains certain specified voting or equity ownership thresholds, provided that each nominee must meet any applicable requirements or qualifications. Each of A/N and Liberty will be entitled to nominate one or more directors to each of the committees of the Charter board of directors, subject to applicable stock exchange listing rules and certain specified voting or equity ownership thresholds for each of A/N and Liberty, and provided that the nominating and compensation committees will have at least a majority of directors independent from A/N, Liberty and New Charter (“Unaffiliated Directors”). The nominating committee will be comprised of three Unaffiliated Directors, and one designee of each of A/N and Liberty. A/N and Liberty also will have certain other committee designation and other governance rights.

4

Each of A/N and Liberty will be subject to certain limits on acquisitions of New Charter shares. In addition, any shares owned by A/N or Liberty in excess of its applicable voting cap must be voted in proportion to the public stockholders of New Charter, other than with respect to certain specified matters. At the closing of the BHN Contribution, A/N and Liberty will enter into an agreement pursuant to which A/N will grant to Liberty a five-year irrevocable proxy to vote, subject to certain exceptions, that number of New Charter common stock and shares of New Charter Class B common stock, in each case, held by A/N (such shares, the “Proxy Shares”), that will result in Liberty having voting power in New Charter equal to 25.01% of the outstanding voting power of New Charter (provided, that the voting power of the Proxy Shares will be capped at 7.0% of the outstanding voting power of New Charter), as well as a right of first refusal to purchase certain shares from A/N in the event it decides to dispose of such shares. Each of A/N and Liberty will be subject to certain standstill provisions and, subject to certain exceptions, shall not be permitted to form a group, within the meaning of Regulation 13D, with each other or otherwise have arrangements or understandings concerning New Charter.

Each of A/N and Liberty will be entitled to preemptive rights to maintain their respective percentage equity ownership of New Charter in certain specified circumstances and to the extent that each maintains certain specified thresholds of equity or vote ownership in New Charter. Each of A/N and Liberty will be subject to certain restrictions on their ability to sell, transfer or dispose of their New Charter securities.

The number of directors that each of A/N and Liberty are entitled to nominate will decrease, and, generally, the other rights of each of A/N and Liberty will terminate, as such party falls below certain vote or equity ownership thresholds, subject to certain grace periods during which such party can return its ownership to the applicable threshold.

Amendment No.1 to the BHN Contribution Agreement

In connection with the Merger Agreement, the Company and A/N amended the BHN Contribution Agreement to conform with the Merger Agreement and to delete references to the now-terminated transaction between Comcast Corporation and TWC (the “Comcast Transaction”). Pursuant to the amendment, the BHN Contribution will no longer be conditioned on the now-terminated Comcast Transaction or expiration of the ROFO and will not include termination rights related to the Comcast Transaction or the ROFO. Instead, the amendment conditions the closing of the BHN Contribution on the consummation of the Mergers, unless the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances and prior to such termination an alternative acquisition proposal for TWC has been made and TWC enters into a definitive agreement to consummate such proposal within 12 months of the termination (“Tail Condition”). The outside termination date for the BHN Contribution Agreement will be automatically extended until the third business day following the end date of the Merger Agreement or, if later, the expiration of 12 months following the termination of the Merger Agreement unless the Tail Condition can no longer be satisfied.

The foregoing description of Amendment No. 1 to the BHN Contribution Agreement does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of Amendment No. 1 to the BHN Contribution Agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 2.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Copies of the Merger Agreement, the Liberty Agreements, the Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement and Amendment No. 1 to the BHN Contribution Agreement (the “Agreements”) have been included as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K to provide investors with information regarding their terms. They are not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company, TWC, the Liberty Parties or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in each Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates; were made solely for the benefit of the parties to such Agreement; may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures; may not have been intended to be statements of fact, but rather, as a method of allocating contractual risk and governing the contractual rights and relationships between the parties to such

5

Agreement; and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company, TWC, the Liberty Parties or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of an Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company’s or TWC’s public disclosures.

ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS.

On May 23, 2015, Charter Communications Operating, LLC (“Charter Operating”), an indirect subsidiary of Charter, received commitments from Goldman Sachs Bank USA, Goldman Sachs Lending Partners, LLP, Bank of America, N.A., Merrill Lynch, Pierce Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Credit Suisse AG, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, UBS AG, Stamford Branch and, UBS Securities LLC to provide incremental senior secured term loan facilities totaling up to $15.0 billion and a senior secured incremental revolving facility equal to $1.7 billion, in each case under Charter Operating’s Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated April 11, 2012 (the “Commitments”). In addition, the Commitments provide for (1) up to $6.0 billion in senior secured first lien bridge facilities that would be made in the event that Charter Operating is not able to issue $6.0 billion in senior secured first lien notes on or prior to the closing date, (2) up to $3.5 billion in senior unsecured bridge facilities that would be made in the event that Charter Operating is not able to issue $3.5 billion in senior unsecured notes on or prior to the closing date and (3) up to $4.3 billion in a senior unsecured 364-day loan facility to CCO Holdings, LLC (“CCOH”), an indirect subsidiary of Charter, that would be made in the event that CCOH is not able to issue up to $4.3 billion of senior unsecured notes on or prior to the closing date (the “CCOH Commitment”). On May 27, 2015, Charter Operating and the commitment parties entered into an amendment of the Commitments to add Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, Deutsche Bank AG Cayman Islands Branch and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. as a party to the Commitments. The Charter Operating incremental facilities and bridge facilities provided for by the Commitments will be used by Charter to fund the cash payments required upon consummation of the Mergers and the BHN Contribution. The CCOH Commitment, if used, may be used by Charter to fund additional cash Merger Consideration to the extent TWC stockholders elect to receive $115.00 in cash and New Charter shares equivalent to 0.4562 shares of Charter common stock or, in the event the Merger Agreement is terminated, to pay any applicable termination fee.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements in this current report regarding the proposed transaction between Charter and Time Warner Cable and the proposed transaction between Bright House and Charter, including any statements regarding the expected timetable for completing the transaction, benefits and synergies of the transaction, future opportunities for the respective companies and products, and any other statements regarding Charter’s, Time Warner Cable’s and Bright House’s future expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, financial conditions, assumptions or future events or performance that are not historical facts are “forward-looking” statements made within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “should,” “planned,” “will,” “may,” “intend,” “estimated,” “aim,” “on track,” “target,” “opportunity,” “tentative,” “positioning,” “designed,” “create,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “would,” “could”, “continue,” “ongoing,” “upside,” “increases,” and “potential,” and similar expressions. All such forward-looking statements involve estimates and assumptions that are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed in the statements. Among the key factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements are the following: the timing to consummate the proposed transactions; the risk that a condition to closing the proposed transactions may not be satisfied; the risk that a regulatory approval that may be required for the proposed transactions is not obtained

7

or is obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated; Charter’s ability to achieve the synergies and value creation contemplated by the proposed transactions; Charter’s ability to promptly, efficiently and effectively integrate acquired operations into its own operations; and the diversion of management time on transaction-related issues. Additional information concerning these and other factors can be found in Charter’s and Time Warner Cable’s respective filings with the SEC, including Charter’s and Time Warner Cable’s most recent Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K.

Section 2.03 Surrender and Payment.

(a) The following procedures shall apply to Elections made pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(i):

(i) Parent shall prepare a form reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Election Form”), which shall be mailed by the Company to record holders of Company Stock and holders of Vested Company Stock Options and Director RSUs (as such terms are defined in Section 2.04) so as to permit those holders to exercise their right to make an Election prior to the Election Deadline and which shall specify, among other things, the Election Deadline and the consequences of failing to meet the Election Deadline.

(ii) Prior to the Mailing Date, Parent shall appoint an agent reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Exchange Agent”) for (i) receiving Elections and exchanging for the applicable Company Cash Consideration and New Charter Merger Consideration (in respect of the applicable Company Stock Merger Consideration that shall be deemed to be automatically surrendered for exchange upon the Second Company Merger Effective Time) (as well as cash in lieu of fractional shares of New Charter Company Stock as specified in Section 2.07) (A) certificates representing shares of Company Stock (the “Company Certificates”) and (B) uncertificated shares of Company Stock (the “Company Uncertificated Shares”), and (ii) exchanging for the Parent Merger Consideration and cash in lieu of fractional shares of New Charter Company Stock as specified in Section 2.07 (A) certificates representing shares of Parent Class A Common Stock (the “Parent Certificates” and, together with the Company Certificates, the “Certificates”)

-19-

and (B) uncertificated shares of Parent Class A Common Stock (the “Parent Uncertificated Shares” and, together with the Company Uncertificated Shares, the “Uncertificated Shares”).

(iii) The Company shall mail or cause to be mailed or delivered, as applicable, not less than 20 Business Days prior to the anticipated Election Deadline (the “Mailing Date”) an Election Form to record holders of Company Stock as of the close of business on the tenth (10th) Business Day prior to the Mailing Date (the “Election Form Record Date”). The Company shall make available one or more Election Forms as may reasonably be requested from time to time by all persons who become holders or beneficial owners of Company Stock during the period following the Election Form Record Date and prior to the Election Deadline.

(iv) Any Election shall have been made properly only if the Exchange Agent shall have received, by the Election Deadline, an Election Form properly completed and signed and accompanied by Company Certificates to which such Election Form relates, duly endorsed in blank or otherwise in form acceptable for transfer on the books of the Company and, in the case of Company Uncertificated Shares, any additional documents specified in the procedures set forth in the Election Form. As used herein, unless otherwise agreed in advance by the Company and Parent, “Election Deadline” means 5:00 p.m. local time (in the city in which the principal office of the Exchange Agent is located) on the date that Parent and the Company shall agree is five (5) Business Days prior to the expected Closing Date. The Company and Parent shall issue a press release reasonably satisfactory to each of them announcing the anticipated date of the Election Deadline not more than 20 Business Days before, and at least five Business Days prior to, the Election Deadline. If the Closing is delayed to a subsequent date, the Election Deadline shall be similarly delayed to a subsequent date (which shall be the fifth Business Day prior to the Closing Date) and the Company and Parent shall cooperate to promptly publicly announce such rescheduled Election Deadline and Closing.

(v) Any holder of Company Stock may, at any time prior to the Election Deadline, change or revoke his or her Election by written notice received by the Exchange Agent prior to the Election Deadline accompanied by a properly completed and signed revised Election Form or by withdrawal prior to the Election Deadline of his or her Company Certificates, or any documents in respect of Company Uncertificated Shares, previously deposited with the Exchange Agent. After an Election is validly made with respect to any shares of Company Stock, any subsequent transfer of such shares of Company Stock shall automatically revoke such Election. If no Election is made by a holder, or an Election is revoked and another one is not validly and timely made by a holder, such holder shall only have the right to receive the Company Option A Merger Consideration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all Elections shall be automatically deemed revoked upon receipt by the Exchange Agent of written notification from Parent or the Company that this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with Article 10. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Exchange Agent shall have reasonable discretion to determine if any Election is not properly or timely made with respect to any shares of Company Stock (neither Parent nor the Company nor the Exchange Agent being under any duty to notify any stockholder of any such defect);

-20-

in the event the Exchange Agent makes such a determination, such Election shall be deemed to be not in effect, and the shares of Company Stock covered by such Election shall, for purposes hereof, be deemed to be only entitled to receive the Company Option A Merger Consideration pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof, unless a proper Election is thereafter timely made with respect to such shares.

(b) At or immediately after the Effective Time, Parent or New Charter shall make, or cause to be made, available to the Exchange Agent the Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the Certificates and the Uncertificated Shares (including cash in immediately available funds in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate Company Cash Consideration and cash in lieu of fractional shares as specified in Section 2.07) (the “Exchange Fund”). Each of Parent and New Charter agrees to make available to the Exchange Agent from time to time, as needed, any dividends or distributions to which any Person is entitled pursuant to Section 2.03(h). Promptly after the Effective Time, and in any event no later than the tenth Business Day following the Effective Time, New Charter shall send, or shall cause the Exchange Agent to send, to each holder of record of shares of Company Stock at the First Company Merger Effective Time a letter of transmittal and instructions (with respect to both the Company Cash Consideration and New Charter Merger Consideration) reasonably acceptable to the Company, and to each holder of record of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock at the Parent Merger Effective Time a letter of transmittal and instructions (with respect to the Parent Merger Consideration) (which shall, in each case, specify that the delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates or transfer of the Uncertificated Shares to the Exchange Agent and which shall otherwise be in customary form and shall include customary provisions with respect to delivery of an “agent’s message” regarding the book-entry transfer of Uncertificated Shares) for use in such exchange. The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund, as directed by Parent or New Charter, on a daily basis; provided that such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America or any agency or instrumentality thereof and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States of America, in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, or in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $25 billion (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank which are then publicly available), or a combination of the foregoing. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to New Charter upon termination of the Exchange Fund pursuant to this Section 2.03 and any losses resulting from such investments will be made up by Parent or New Charter to the extent necessary to pay the Company Cash Consideration.

(c) Each holder of shares of Company Stock that have been converted into the right to receive the Company Merger Consideration and, subsequently, the New Charter Merger Consideration shall be entitled to receive, upon (i) surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Company Certificate, together with a properly completed letter of transmittal, or (ii) receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) in the case of a book-entry transfer of Company Uncertificated Shares, the applicable Company Cash Consideration and the New Charter Merger Consideration in respect of the Company Stock represented by a Company Certificate or Company Uncertificated Share (in each case as applicable), as specified in such holder’s Election Form (or otherwise based on the Company Option A Merger Consideration). The shares of New Charter

-21-

Common Stock constituting part of such New Charter Merger Consideration shall be in uncertificated book-entry form, unless a physical certificate is required under Applicable Law. Until so surrendered or transferred, as the case may be, each Company Certificate or Company Uncertificated Share shall represent after the First Company Merger Effective Time and the Second Company Merger Effective for all purposes only the right to receive such Company Cash Consideration, New Charter Merger Consideration and the right to receive any dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 2.03(h).

(d) Each holder of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock that have been converted into the right to receive the Parent Merger Consideration shall be entitled to receive, upon (i) surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Parent Certificate, together with a properly completed letter of transmittal, or (ii) receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) in the case of a book-entry transfer of Parent Uncertificated Shares, the Parent Merger Consideration in respect of the Parent Class A Common Stock represented by a Parent Certificate or Parent Uncertificated Share (in each case as applicable). The shares of New Charter Common Stock constituting part of such Parent Merger Consideration, at Parent’s option, shall be in uncertificated book-entry form, unless a physical certificate is required under Applicable Law. Until so surrendered or transferred, as the case may be, each such Parent Certificate or Parent Uncertificated Share shall represent after the Parent Merger Effective Time for all purposes only the right to receive such Parent Merger Consideration and the right to receive any dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 2.03(h).

(e) If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or the transferred Uncertificated Share is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that (i) either such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer or such Uncertificated Share shall be properly transferred and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other taxes required as a result of such payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Uncertificated Share or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

(f) (i) After the First Company Merger Effective Time, there shall be no further registrations of transfers of shares of Company Stock (other than solely as a result of the First Company Merger or the Second Company Merger), (ii) after the Second Company Merger Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Company Surviving Corporation Stock (other than solely as a result of the Second Company Merger) and (iii) after the Parent Merger Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock (other than solely as a result of the Parent Merger). If, after the First Company Merger Effective Time, the Second Company Merger Effective Time or the Parent Merger Effective Time, as applicable, Certificates, Uncertificated Shares or uncertificated shares of Company Surviving Corporation Stock are presented to the Company Surviving Corporation, New Charter, the Parent Surviving Entity or the Exchange Agent, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Company Cash Consideration and the New Charter Merger Consideration or Parent Merger Consideration, as applicable, provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this Article 2.

-22-

(g) Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 2.03(a) that remains unclaimed by the holders of shares of Company Stock or Parent Class A Common Stock twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to New Charter, upon demand, and any such holder who has not exchanged shares of Company Stock or Parent Class A Common Stock for the applicable Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 2.03 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to New Charter for and New Charter shall remain liable for, payment of the applicable Merger Consideration, and any dividends and distributions with respect thereto pursuant to Section 2.03(h), in respect of such shares without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the parties to this Agreement shall be liable to any holder of shares of Company Stock or Parent Class A Common Stock for any amounts properly paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of shares of Company Stock or Parent Class A Common Stock two (2) years after the Effective Time (or such earlier date, immediately prior to such time when the amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Authority) shall become, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the property of New Charter free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(h) No dividends or other distributions with respect to securities of New Charter constituting part of the Merger Consideration, and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares as provided in Section 2.07, shall be paid to the holder of any Certificates not surrendered or of any Uncertificated Shares not transferred until such Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are surrendered or transferred, as the case may be, as provided in this Section 2.03. Following such surrender or transfer, there shall be paid, without interest, to the Person in whose name the securities of New Charter have been registered, (i) at the time of such surrender or transfer, the amount of any cash payable in lieu of fractional shares to which such Person is entitled pursuant to Section 2.07 and the amount of all dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time previously paid or payable on the date of such surrender with respect to such securities, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time and prior to surrender or transfer and with a payment date subsequent to surrender or transfer payable with respect to such securities.

(i) The payment of any transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred by a holder of Company Stock or Parent Class A Common Stock in connection with the First Company Merger, the Second Company Merger or the Parent Merger, as applicable, for which none of Parent, New Charter, the Company, or a Subsidiary of the Company is liable, and the filing of any related Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to such Taxes and fees, shall be the sole responsibility of such holder.

Section 2.04 Company Equity-Based Awards.

(a) Except as provided in Section 2.04(d), the terms of each outstanding compensatory option to purchase shares of Company Stock (a “Company Stock Option”), whether or not exercisable or vested, shall be adjusted as necessary to provide that, at the Second Company Merger Effective Time, each Company Stock Option outstanding immediately prior to the First Company Merger Effective Time shall be converted into an option (each, a “Company

-23-

Adjusted Option”) to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the First Company Merger Effective Time, the number of shares of New Charter Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Stock subject to such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the First Company Merger Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Stock Award Exchange Ratio, with any fractional shares rounded down to the next lower whole number of shares. The exercise price per share of New Charter Common Stock subject to any such Company Adjusted Option shall be an amount equal to the quotient of (A) the exercise price per share of Company Stock subject to such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the First Company Merger Effective Time divided by (B) the Stock Award Exchange Ratio, with any fractional cents rounded up to the next higher number of whole cents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the conversion of a Company Stock Option in accordance with the preceding provisions of this Section 2.04(a) would cause the related Company Adjusted Option to be treated as the grant of new stock right for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, such Company Stock Option shall not be converted in accordance with the preceding provisions but shall instead be converted in a manner reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company that would not cause the related Company Adjusted Option to be treated as the grant of new stock right for purposes of Section 409A.

(b) Except as provided in Section 2.04(c) and Section 2.04(d), the terms of each outstanding restricted stock unit or deferred stock unit with respect to shares of Company Stock (a “Company RSU”), whether or not vested, shall be adjusted as necessary to provide that, at the Second Company Merger Effective Time, each Company RSU outstanding immediately prior to the First Company Merger Effective Time shall be converted into a restricted stock unit (each, a “Company Adjusted RSU”) with respect to, and on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Company RSU immediately prior to the First Company Merger Effective Time, the number of shares of New Charter Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Stock subject to such Company RSU immediately prior to the First Company Merger Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Stock Award Exchange Ratio, with any fractional shares rounded down to the next lower whole number of shares.

(c) At or promptly after the Second Company Merger Effective Time, each outstanding Company RSU (each, a “Director RSU”) held by a non-employee director or former non-employee director of the Company (each, a “Director”), whether or not vested, shall be canceled, and New Charter shall pay each such Director at or promptly after the Second Company Merger Effective Time for each such Director RSU an amount in cash computed by first determining the Company Adjusted RSU that such Director would have received if the Director RSU held by such Director was converted into a Company Adjusted RSU pursuant to the methodology described in Section 2.04(b) (each, a “Notional Adjusted RSU”) and then multiplying (i) the quotient of (A) the closing sale price of a share of Parent Class A Common Stock on NASDAQ on the trading day immediately preceding the First Company Merger Effective Time divided by (B) the Parent Merger Exchange Ratio by (ii) the number of shares of New Charter Common Stock subject to the Notional Adjusted RSU.

(d) (i) At or promptly after the Second Company Merger Effective Time, each outstanding Company Stock Option (each, a “Former Employee Option”) held by a former employee or individual contractor of the Company (each, a “Former Employee”), whether or not exercisable or vested, shall be cancelled, and New Charter shall pay each such Former Employee

-24-

at or promptly after the Second Company Merger Effective Time for each such Former Employee Option an amount in cash computed by first determining the Company Adjusted Option that such Former Employee would have received if the Former Employee Option held by such Former Employee was converted into a Company Adjusted Option pursuant to the methodology described in Section 2.04(a) (each, a “Notional Adjusted Option”) and then multiplying (A) the excess of (1) the quotient of (I) the closing sale price of a share of Parent Class A Common Stock on NASDAQ on the trading day immediately preceding the First Company Merger Effective Time divided by (II) the Parent Merger Exchange Ratio over (2) the per share exercise price of such Notional Adjusted Option, if any, by (B) the number of shares of New Charter Common Stock subject to such Notional Adjusted Option to the extent unexercised. For the avoidance of doubt, all Former Employee Options outstanding as of the First Company Merger Effective Time that if converted into a Company Adjusted Option would have a per share exercise price equal to or exceeding the quotient of (x) the closing sale price of a share of Parent Class A Common Stock on NASDAQ on the trading day immediately preceding the First Company Merger Effective Time divided by (y) the Parent Merger Exchange Ratio shall be immediately cancelled and forfeited without any liability on the part of Parent, New Charter or their respective Affiliates.

(ii) At or promptly after the Second Company Merger Effective Time, each outstanding Company RSU (each, a “Former Employee RSU”) held by a Former Employee, whether or not vested, shall be canceled, and New Charter shall pay each such Former Employee at or promptly after the Second Company Merger Effective Time for each such Former Employee RSU an amount in cash computed by first determining the number of Notional Adjusted RSUs held by such Former Employee and then multiplying (A) the quotient of (1) the closing sale price of a share of Parent Class A Common Stock on NASDAQ on the trading day immediately preceding the First Company Merger Effective Time divided by (2) the Parent Merger Exchange Ratio by (B) the number of shares of New Charter Common Stock with respect to the Notional Adjusted RSUs; provided, that, to the extent that any Former Employee RSU is subject to Section 409A of the Code, then such Former Employee RSU shall be converted into a Company Adjusted RSU in accordance with the terms of Section 2.04(b).

(e) Parent and New Charter shall take such actions as are necessary for the assumption of the Company Stock Options and Company RSUs pursuant to Sections 2.04(a) and (b), including the reservation, issuance and listing of New Charter Common Stock as is necessary to effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.04. Parent and New Charter shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on an appropriate form, or a post-effective amendment to a registration statement previously filed under the 1933 Act, with respect to the shares of New Charter Common Stock subject to the Company Adjusted Options and Company Adjusted RSUs to be issued by New Charter and, where applicable, shall use its reasonable best efforts to have such registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable following the Effective Time and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement covering such Company Adjusted Options and Company Adjusted RSUs (and to maintain the current status of the prospectus contained therein) for so long as any Company Adjusted Option or any Company Adjusted remains outstanding. With respect to those individuals, if any, who, subsequent to the Effective Time, will be subject to the reporting requirements under Section 16(a) of the 1934 Act, where applicable, New Charter shall administer any Company Adjusted Option and any Company Adjusted RSU issued pursuant to this Section 2.04 in a manner that complies with Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the 1934 Act to the extent the corresponding Company Stock Option or such Company RSU complied with such rule prior to the Mergers.

-25-

(f) Prior to the First Company Merger Effective Time, the Company and Parent shall take any actions with respect to equity compensation plans or arrangements that are necessary to give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.04.

Section 2.05 Parent Equity-Based Awards. (a) The terms of each outstanding compensatory option to purchase shares of Parent Class A Common Stock (each, a “Parent Stock Option”), whether or not exercisable or vested, shall be adjusted as necessary to provide that, at the Parent Merger Effective Time, each Parent Stock Option outstanding immediately prior to the Parent Merger Effective Time shall be converted into an option (each, a “Parent Adjusted Option”) to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Parent Stock Option immediately prior to the Parent Merger Effective Time, the number of shares of New Charter Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock subject to such Parent Stock Option immediately prior to the Parent Merger Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Parent Merger Exchange Ratio, with any fractional shares rounded down to the next lower whole number of shares. The exercise price per share of New Charter Common Stock subject to any such Parent Adjusted Option shall be an amount equal to the quotient of (A) exercise price per share of Parent Class A Common Stock subject to such Parent Stock Option immediately prior to the Parent Merger Effective Time divided by (B) the Parent Merger Exchange Ratio, with any fractional cents rounded up to the next higher number of whole cents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the conversion of a Parent Stock Option in accordance with the preceding provisions of this Section 2.05(a) would cause the related Parent Adjusted Option to be treated as the grant of new stock right for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, such Parent Stock Option shall not be converted in accordance with the preceding provisions but shall instead be converted in a manner reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company that would not cause the related Parent Adjusted Option to be treated as the grant of new stock right for purposes of Section 409A.

(b) The terms of each outstanding award of shares of restricted Parent Stock (each, a “Parent Stock Award”) shall be adjusted as necessary to provide that, at the Parent Merger Effective Time, each Parent Stock Award outstanding immediately prior to the Parent Merger Effective Time shall be converted into an award (each, a “Parent Adjusted Stock Award”) with respect to, and subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Parent Stock Award immediately prior to the Parent Merger Effective Time, the number of shares of restricted New Charter Common Stock equal to the product of (i) number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock subject to such Parent Stock Award immediately prior to the Parent Merger Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Parent Merger Exchange Ratio, with any fractional shares rounded down to the next lower whole number of shares.

(c) The terms of each outstanding restricted stock unit with respect to shares of Parent Stock (each, a “Parent RSU”), whether or not vested, shall be adjusted as necessary to provide that, at the Parent Merger Effective Time, each Parent RSU outstanding immediately prior to the Parent Merger Effective Time shall be converted into a restricted stock unit (each, a “Parent Adjusted RSU”) with respect to, and on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Parent RSU immediately prior to the Parent Merger Effective Time, the number of shares of New Charter Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock subject to such Parent RSU immediately prior to the Parent Merger Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Parent Merger Exchange Ratio, with any fractional shares rounded down to the next lower whole number of shares.

-26-

(d) Parent and New Charter shall take such actions as are necessary for the assumption of the Parent Stock Options, Parent Stock Awards and Parent RSUs pursuant to Sections 2.05(a), (b) and (c), including the reservation, issuance and listing of New Charter Common Stock as is necessary to effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.05. New Charter shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on an appropriate form, or a post-effective amendment to a registration statement previously filed under the 1933 Act, with respect to the shares of New Charter Common Stock subject to the Parent Adjusted Options, Parent Adjusted Stock Awards and Parent Adjusted RSUs to be issued by New Charter and, where applicable, shall use its reasonable best efforts to have such registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable following the Parent Merger Effective Time and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement covering such Parent Adjusted Options, Parent Adjusted Stock Awards and Parent Adjusted RSUs (and to maintain the current status of the prospectus contained therein) for so long as any Parent Adjusted Option, Parent Adjusted Stock Award or Parent Adjusted RSU remains outstanding. With respect to those individuals, if any, who, subsequent to the Parent Merger Effective Time, will be subject to the reporting requirements under Section 16(a) of the 1934 Act, where applicable, New Charter shall administer any Parent Adjusted Option, Parent Adjusted Stock Award and Parent Adjusted RSU issued pursuant to this Section 2.05 in a manner that complies with Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the 1934 Act to the extent the corresponding Parent Stock Option, Parent Stock Award or Parent RSU complied with such rule prior to the Mergers.

Section 2.06 Adjustments.

Section 2.07 Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Company Surviving Corporation Stock shall be issued in the First Company Merger and no fractional shares of New Charter Common Stock shall be issued in the Parent Merger. All fractional shares of Company Surviving Corporation Stock that a holder of record of shares of Company Stock would otherwise be entitled to receive as a result of the First Company Merger shall be aggregated and if a

-27-

fractional share results from such aggregation, such holder shall be entitled to receive, in lieu thereof, an amount in cash without interest determined by multiplying the closing sale price of a share of Parent Class A Common Stock on NASDAQ on the trading day immediately preceding the First Company Merger Effective Time by the fraction of a share of Company Surviving Corporation Stock to which such holder would otherwise have been entitled. All fractional shares of New Charter Common Stock that a holder of record of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock would otherwise be entitled to receive as a result of the Parent Merger shall be aggregated and if a fractional share results from such aggregation, such holder shall be entitled to receive, in lieu thereof, an amount in cash without interest determined by multiplying the closing sale price of a share of Parent Class A Common Stock on NASDAQ on the trading day immediately preceding the Parent Merger Effective Time by the fraction of a share of New Charter Common Stock to which such holder would otherwise have been entitled.

Section 2.08 Withholding. Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, each of the Exchange Agent, the Company, the Parent Surviving Entity, the Company Surviving Corporation, Merger Subsidiary One, Merger Subsidiary Two, Merger Subsidiary Three, New Charter and Parent shall be entitled to deduct or withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Article 2 such amounts as it is required to deduct or withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of federal, state, local or foreign tax law. The Company shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, assist Parent, New Charter, Parent Surviving Entity, Company Surviving Corporation, Merger Subsidiary One, Merger Subsidiary Two and/or Merger Subsidiary Three in making such deductions and withholding as reasonably requested by Parent or New Charter. If the Exchange Agent, the Company, the Parent Surviving Entity, the Company Surviving Corporation, Merger Subsidiary One, Merger Subsidiary Two, Merger Subsidiary Three, New Charter or Parent, as the case may be, so withholds amounts and timely pays such amounts to the appropriate taxing authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the shares of Company Stock or Parent Class A Common, as applicable, in respect of which the Exchange Agent, the Company, the Parent Surviving Entity, the Company Surviving Corporation, Merger Subsidiary One, Merger Subsidiary Two, Merger Subsidiary Three, New Charter or Parent, as the case may be, made such deduction and withholding.

Section 2.09 Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by New Charter or the Company Surviving Corporation, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as New Charter and the Company Surviving Corporation may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the shares of Company Stock or Parent Class A Common Stock represented by such Certificate and any dividends or distributions with respect thereto pursuant to Section 2.03(h), as contemplated by this Article 2.

Section 2.10 Appraisal Rights.

(a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary and to the extent available under Delaware Law, shares of Company Stock that are outstanding immediately

-28-

prior to the First Company Merger Effective Time and that are held by holders of shares of Company Stock who shall have neither voted in favor of the First Company Merger nor consented thereto in writing and who shall have demanded properly in writing appraisal for such shares of Company Stock in accordance with Section 262 of Delaware Law (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into, or represent the right to receive, the Company Merger Consideration (or, for the avoidance of doubt, the Cheetah Merger Consideration). The holders of such shares of Company Stock shall be entitled instead to receive only the payment provided by Section 262 of Delaware Law, except that all Dissenting Shares held by holders of shares of Company Stock who shall have failed to perfect or who effectively shall have withdrawn or lost their rights to appraisal of such shares of Company Stock under Section 262 of Delaware Law shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into, and to have become exchangeable for, as of the First Company Merger Effective Time, the right to receive the Company Merger Consideration (which shall represent, with respect to the Company Stock Merger Consideration, the right to receive the New Charter Merger Consideration), in each case without any interest thereon, in accordance with Section 2.02.

(b) The Company shall give Parent and New Charter (i) prompt notice of any demands for appraisal received by the Company, withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to Delaware Law and received by the Company and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under Delaware Law. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal or offer to settle or settle any such demands.

Section 2.11 Restructuring. If such actions required to treat the Company’s Subsidiaries as disregarded from their owner for U.S. federal income tax purposes or contribute the Company’s assets and interests in its Subsidiaries to Subsidiaries of New Charter following the Closing Date would result in a cost that is material to Parent, then, upon the written request of Parent, the Parties agree to reasonably cooperate in the implementation of a restructuring of the transactions contemplated herein (including, without limitation, restructuring such transaction such that the Second Company Merger, the Parent Merger, the equity subscription and exchange contemplated by the Investment Agreement and Contribution Agreement, respectively, and the contribution of the assets subject to the Amended Contribution Agreement to New Charter, taken together, would be treated as a transaction described in Section 351 of the Code). Such cooperation shall include entering into appropriate amendments to this Agreement, provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.11 to the contrary, such cooperation contemplated by this Section 2.11 shall (a) not (i) alter or change the amount or kind of the consideration ultimately to be issued to the holders of Company Stock or the holders of Parent Class A Common Stock or (ii) reasonably be expected to (x) subject to the proviso in clause (b) below, adversely affect the Company or the holders of Company Stock or (y) have the effect of materially delaying, impairing or impeding the receipt of any regulatory approvals required in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or the Closing and (b) result in U.S. federal income tax consequences that are no less favorable to the holders of Company Stock and the holders of Parent Class A Common Stock than the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Mergers; provided that it is agreed and understood that for purposes of this Section 2.11 a transaction qualifying as a transaction described in Section 351 of the Code does not result in tax consequences that are less favorable to the holders of Company Stock and the holders of Parent Class A Common Stock than the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Mergers and does not adversely affect the Company or the holders of Company Stock.

Section 4.05 Capitalization. (a) The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 8,333,333,333 shares of Company Stock and 1,000,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01, of the Company (“Company Preferred Stock”).

The Company 10-K identifies, as of its filing date, all “significant subsidiaries” (as defined under Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X promulgated pursuant to the 1934 Act) of the Company (each, a “Significant Subsidiary”) and their respective jurisdictions of organization.

There are no outstanding obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any of the Company Subsidiary Securities.

(c) Section 4.06(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedule lists, as of the date of this Agreement, each Person other than a Subsidiary of the Company in which the Company owns, directly or indirectly, any shares of capital stock or other voting securities or other ownership interests, other than (i) publicly traded securities held for investment which do not exceed 5% of the outstanding securities of any Person and (ii) securities held by any employee benefit plan of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any trustee or other fiduciary in such capacity under any such employee benefit plan (each, a “Company Investment”).

-57-

(ii) “endangered status” or “critical status” (within the meaning of Section 432 of the Code) or (iii) insolvency, “reorganization” (within the meaning of Section 4241 of ERISA) or proposed or, to Parent’s knowledge, threatened termination. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Parent Material Adverse Effect, all contributions, surcharges and premium payments owed by Parent and its ERISA Affiliates with respect to each Multiemployer Plan have been paid when due.

(d) Each Parent Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter.

(b) Other than as expressly set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, there are no other agreements, side letters, arrangements or understandings (except for customary fee credit letters and engagement letters, in each case associated with the Debt Financing, each of which does not (i) impair the enforceability of the Debt Commitment Letter, (ii) reduce the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing, (iii) impose new or additional conditions precedent to the Debt Financing or (iv) otherwise adversely expand, amend or modify any of the conditions precedent to the Debt Financing) relating to the financing of the Required Payment Amount.

It is agreed that any violation of the restrictions on the Company set forth in this Section 6.03 by any Representative of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be a breach of this Section 6.03 by the Company.

(i) the Company, directly or indirectly through advisors, agents or other intermediaries, may (A) engage in negotiations or discussions with any Third Party

-67-

that, subject to the Company’s compliance with Section 6.03(a), has made after the date of this Agreement a Company Superior Proposal or a Company Acquisition Proposal that the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal advisors, could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Superior Proposal by the Third Party making such Company Acquisition Proposal, (B) furnish to such Third Party and its advisors, agents or other intermediaries (including financing sources) non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement (a copy of which shall be provided for informational purposes only to Parent) with such Third Party with terms no less favorable to the Company than those contained in the confidentiality agreement, dated May 23, 2015, between the Company and Parent (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) (it being understood and hereby agreed that such confidentiality agreement need not contain a “standstill” or similar provision that prohibits such Third Party from making any Company Acquisition Proposal, acquiring the Company or taking any other action); provided that all such information (to the extent that such information has not been previously provided or made available to Parent) is provided or made available to Parent, as the case may be, prior to or as promptly as practicable (but no later than 24 hours) after the time it is provided or made available to such Third Party) and (C) take any action required by Applicable Law or that any court of competent jurisdiction orders the Company to take;

(ii) following receipt of a Company Superior Proposal, the Board of Directors of the Company may, subject to compliance with Section 6.03(d), make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change; and

(iii) following a Company Intervening Event, the Board of Directors of the Company may, subject to compliance with Section 6.03(d), make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change involving or relating to such Company Intervening Event;

in each case referred to in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) only if the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, after considering advice from outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law. For purposes of clarification, the taking of any of the actions permitted by Section 6.03(a) and Section 6.03(b)(i) shall not be deemed to be a Company Adverse Recommendation Change.

In addition, nothing contained herein shall prevent the Company or its Board of Directors from (i) complying with Rule 14a-9, Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2(a) and Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A under the 1934 Act (or making any similar communication to stockholders in connection with any amendment to the terms of a tender offer or exchange offer) so long as any action taken or statement made to so comply is consistent with this Section 6.03 or (ii) disclosing factual information regarding the business, financial condition or results of operations of Parent or the Company or the fact that a Company Acquisition Proposal has been made, the identity of the party making such proposal or the material terms of such proposal in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus or otherwise, to the extent the Company in good faith determines that such information, facts, identity or terms is required to be disclosed under Applicable Law or that failure to make such disclosure would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law; provided that any such action taken or statement or disclosure made that relates to a Company

-68-

Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be a Company Adverse Recommendation Change unless the Board of Directors of the Company reaffirms the Company Board Recommendation in such statement or disclosure or in connection with such action (except that a mere “stop, look and listen” disclosure in compliance with Rule 14d-9(f) of the 1934 Act or failure to take a position with respect to a Company Acquisition Proposal governed by the tender offer or exchange offer rules under the 1934 Act until the tenth Business Day after commencement of such Company Acquisition Proposal shall not constitute a Company Adverse Recommendation Change).

(c) Required Notices. The Board of Directors of the Company shall not take any of the actions referred to in Section 6.03(b) unless the Company shall have delivered to Parent a prior written notice advising Parent that it intends to take such action, and, after taking such action, the Company shall, if such action is in connection with a Company Acquisition Proposal, continue to advise Parent on a current basis of the status and terms of any discussions and negotiations with the Third Party. In addition, the Company shall notify Parent promptly (but in no event later than 24 hours) after receipt by the Company (or any of its Representatives) of any Company Acquisition Proposal, any written indication from a Third Party that such Third Party is considering making a Company Acquisition Proposal or any written request for information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or for access to the business, properties, assets, books or records of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries by any Third Party that has indicated that it is considering making, or has made, a Company Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall within 24 hours of receipt thereof provide such notice orally and in writing and shall identify the Third Party making, and the material terms and conditions of, any such Company Acquisition Proposal, indication or request, and shall promptly (but in no event later than 24 hours after receipt) provide to Parent copies of all material correspondence and written materials sent or provided to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that describes any terms or conditions of any Company Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed, on a reasonably current basis, of the status and details of any such Company Acquisition Proposal, indication or request. Any material amendment to any Company Acquisition Proposal will be deemed to be a new Company Acquisition Proposal for purposes of the Company’s compliance with this Section 6.03(c).

(d) “Last Look”. The Board of Directors of the Company shall not make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in response to a Company Acquisition Proposal unless (i) such Company Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Company Superior Proposal, (ii) the Company promptly notifies Parent, in writing at least five Business Days before taking that action, of its intention to do so, attaching the most current version of the proposed agreement under which such Company Superior Proposal is proposed to be consummated and the identity of the Third Party making the Company Acquisition Proposal, and (iii) Parent does not make, within such five-Business-Day period after its receipt of that written notification, an offer that is at least as favorable to the stockholders of the Company as such Company Superior Proposal (it being understood and agreed that any amendment to the financial terms or other material terms of such Company Superior Proposal shall require a new written notification from the Company and a new period under clause (ii) of this Section 6.03(d), except that such period shall be three Business Days instead of five Business Days). The Board of Directors of the Company shall not make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in response to a Company Intervening Event, unless (A) the Company has provided Parent with written information describing such Company Intervening Event in reasonable detail promptly after becoming aware of it and keeps

-69-

Parent fully informed, on a reasonably current basis, of material developments with respect to such Company Intervening Event, (B) the Company has provided Parent at least five Business Days prior notice of its intention to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change with respect to such Company Intervening Event, attaching a reasonably detailed explanation of the facts underlying the determination by the Board of Directors of the Company that a Company Intervening Event has occurred and its need to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in light of the Company Intervening Event and (C) Parent does not make, within such five-Business-Day period, an offer that the Company’s Board of Directors determines would obviate the need for a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in light of the Company Intervening Event. During any five-Business-Day period prior to effecting a Company Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to this Section 6.03(d), the Company and its Representatives shall negotiate in good faith with Parent and its Representatives regarding any revisions to the terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement proposed by Parent.

(e) Definition of Company Superior Proposal. For purposes of this Agreement, “Company Superior Proposal” means a bona fide, unsolicited written Company Acquisition Proposal for at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Company Stock or all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries that the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation and outside legal counsel and taking into account all material financial, legal, regulatory and other aspects of such proposal, including the terms and conditions of the Company Acquisition Proposal, (x) is on terms and conditions more favorable to the Company’s stockholders than the transactions contemplated hereby (taking into account any proposal by Parent to amend the terms of this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.03(d)) and (y) is reasonably likely to be consummated and, if a cash transaction (whether in whole or in part), has financing, if any, that is then fully committed or reasonably determined to be available by the Board of Directors of the Company.

(f) Obligation to Terminate Existing Discussions. The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and their Representatives to, cease immediately and cause to be terminated any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations, if any, with any Third Party and its Representatives and its financing sources conducted prior to the date hereof with respect to any Company Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall promptly request that each Third Party, if any, that has executed a confidentiality agreement within the 24-month period prior to the date hereof in connection with its consideration of any Company Acquisition Proposal return or destroy all confidential information heretofore furnished to such Person by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (and all analyses and other materials prepared by or on behalf of such Person that contains, reflects or analyzes that information), and the Company shall provide to Parent all certifications of such return or destruction from such other Persons as promptly as practicable after receipt thereof. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to secure all such certifications as promptly as practicable. If any such Person fails to provide any required certification within the time period allotted in the relevant confidentiality agreement (or if no such period is specified, then within a reasonable time period after the date hereof), then the Company shall take all actions that may be reasonably necessary to secure its rights and ensure the performance of such other party’s obligations thereunder as promptly as practicable.

For purposes of this Section 6.06, the term “Company Acquisition Proposal” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 1.01, except that all references to “25%” therein shall be deemed to be references to “50%”.

(i) Parent, directly or indirectly through advisors, agents or other intermediaries, may (A) engage in negotiations or discussions with any Third Party that, subject to Parent’s compliance with Section 7.04(a), has made after the date of this Agreement a Parent Superior Proposal or a Parent Acquisition Proposal that the Board of Directors of Parent determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal advisors, could reasonably be expected to lead to a Parent Superior Proposal by the Third Party making such Parent Acquisition Proposal, (B) furnish to such Third Party and its advisors, agents or other intermediaries (including financing sources) non-public information relating to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement (a copy of which shall be provided for informational purposes only to the Company) with such Third Party with terms no less favorable to Parent than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement (it being understood and hereby agreed that such confidentiality agreement need not contain a “standstill” or similar provision that prohibits such Third Party from making any Parent Acquisition Proposal, acquiring Parent or taking any other action); provided that all such information (to the extent that such information has not been previously provided or made available to the Company) is provided or made available to the Company, as the case may be, prior to or as promptly as practicable (but no later than 24 hours) after the time it is provided or made available to such Third Party) and (C) take any action required by Applicable Law or that any court of competent jurisdiction orders Parent to take;

(ii) following receipt of a Parent Superior Proposal, the Board of Directors of Parent may, subject to compliance with Section 7.04(d), make a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change; and

(iii) following a Parent Intervening Event, the Board of Directors of Parent may, subject to compliance with Section 7.04(d), make a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change involving or relating to such Parent Intervening Event;

in each case referred to in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) only if the Board of Directors of Parent determines in good faith, after considering advice from outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law. For purposes of clarification, the taking of any of the actions permitted by Section 7.04(a) and Section 7.04(b)(i) shall not be deemed to be a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change.

In addition, nothing contained herein shall prevent Parent or its Board of Directors from (i) complying with Rule 14a-9, Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2(a) and Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A under the 1934 Act (or making any similar communication to stockholders in connection with

-75-

any amendment to the terms of a tender offer or exchange offer) so long as any action taken or statement made to so comply is consistent with this Section 7.04 or (ii) disclosing factual information regarding the business, financial condition or results of operations of Parent or the Company or the fact that a Parent Acquisition Proposal has been made, the identity of the party making such proposal or the material terms of such proposal in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus or otherwise, to the extent Parent in good faith determines that such information, facts, identity or terms is required to be disclosed under Applicable Law or that failure to make such disclosure would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law; provided that any such action taken or statement or disclosure made that relates to a Parent Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change unless the Board of Directors of Parent reaffirms the Parent Board Recommendation in such statement or disclosure or in connection with such action (except that a mere “stop, look and listen” disclosure in compliance with Rule 14d-9(f) of the 1934 Act or failure to take a position with respect to a Parent Acquisition Proposal governed by the tender offer or exchange offer rules under the 1934 Act until the tenth Business Day after commencement of such Parent Acquisition Proposal shall not constitute a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change).

(c) Required Notices. The Board of Directors of Parent shall not take any of the actions referred to in Section 7.04(b) unless Parent shall have delivered to the Company a prior written notice advising the Company that it intends to take such action, and, after taking such action, Parent shall, if such action is in connection with a Parent Acquisition Proposal, continue to advise the Company on a current basis of the status and terms of any discussions and negotiations with the Third Party. In addition, Parent shall notify the Company promptly (but in no event later than 24 hours) after receipt by Parent (or any of its Representatives) of any Parent Acquisition Proposal, any written indication from a Third Party that such Third Party is considering making a Parent Acquisition Proposal or any written request for information relating to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or for access to the business, properties, assets, books or records of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries by any Third Party that has indicated that it is considering making, or has made, a Parent Acquisition Proposal. Parent shall within 24 hours of receipt thereof provide such notice orally and in writing and shall identify the Third Party making, and the material terms and conditions of, any such Parent Acquisition Proposal, indication or request, and shall promptly (but in no event later than 24 hours after receipt) provide to the Company copies of all material correspondence and written materials sent or provided to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries that describes any terms or conditions of any Parent Acquisition Proposal. Parent shall keep the Company reasonably informed, on a reasonably current basis, of the status and details of any such Parent Acquisition Proposal, indication or request. Any material amendment to any Parent Acquisition Proposal will be deemed to be a new Parent Acquisition Proposal for purposes of Parent’s compliance with this Section 7.04(c).

(d) “Last Look”. The Board of Directors of Parent shall not make a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change in response to a Parent Acquisition Proposal unless (i) such Parent Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Parent Superior Proposal, (ii) Parent promptly notifies the Company, in writing at least five Business Days before taking that action, of its intention to do so, attaching the most current version of the proposed agreement under which such Parent Superior Proposal is proposed to be consummated and the identity of the Third Party making the Parent Acquisition Proposal, and (iii) the Company does not make, within such five-Business-Day period after its receipt of that written notification, an offer to revise the terms of

-76-

this Agreement that is at least as favorable to the stockholders of Parent as such Parent Superior Proposal (it being understood and agreed that any amendment to the financial terms or other material terms of such Parent Superior Proposal shall require a new written notification from Parent and a new period under clause (ii) of this Section 7.04(d), except that such period shall be three Business Days instead of five Business Days). The Board of Directors of Parent shall not make a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change in response to a Parent Intervening Event, unless (A) Parent has provided the Company with written information describing such Parent Intervening Event in reasonable detail promptly after becoming aware of it and keeps the Company fully informed, on a reasonably current basis, of material developments with respect to such Parent Intervening Event, (B) Parent has provided the Company at least five Business Days prior notice of its intention to make a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change with respect to such Parent Intervening Event, attaching a reasonably detailed explanation of the facts underlying the determination by the Board of Directors of Parent that a Parent Intervening Event has occurred and its need to make a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change in light of the Parent Intervening Event and (C) the Company does not make, within such five-Business-Day period, an offer to revise the terms of this Agreement that Parent’s Board of Directors determines would obviate the need for a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change in light of the Parent Intervening Event. During any five-Business-Day period prior to effecting a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to this Section 7.04(d), Parent and its Representatives shall negotiate in good faith with the Company and its Representatives regarding any revisions to the terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement proposed by the Company.

(e) Definition of Parent Superior Proposal. For purposes of this Agreement, “Parent Superior Proposal” means a bona fide, unsolicited written Parent Acquisition Proposal for at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Parent Class A Common Stock or all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of Parent and its Subsidiaries that the Board of Directors of Parent determines in good faith, after consultation with a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation and outside legal counsel and taking into account all material financial, legal, regulatory and other aspects of such proposal, including the terms and conditions of the Parent Acquisition Proposal, (x) is on terms and conditions more favorable to Parent’s stockholders than the transactions contemplated hereby (taking into account any proposal by the Company to amend the terms of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.04(d)) and (y) is reasonably likely to be consummated and, if a cash transaction (whether in whole or in part), has financing, if any, that is then fully committed or reasonably determined to be available by the Board of Directors of Parent.

(f) Obligation to Terminate Existing Discussions. Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and their Representatives to, cease immediately and cause to be terminated any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations, if any, with any Third Party and its Representatives and its financing sources conducted prior to the date hereof with respect to any Parent Acquisition Proposal. Parent shall promptly request that each Third Party, if any, that has executed a confidentiality agreement within the 24-month period prior to the date hereof in connection with its consideration of any Parent Acquisition Proposal return or destroy all confidential information heretofore furnished to such Person by or on behalf of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (and all analyses and other materials prepared by or on behalf of such Person that contains, reflects or analyzes that information), and Parent shall provide to the Company all certifications of such return or destruction from such other Persons as promptly as

-77-

practicable after receipt thereof. Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to secure all such certifications as promptly as practicable. If any such Person fails to provide any required certification within the time period allotted in the relevant confidentiality agreement (or if no such period is specified, then within a reasonable time period after the date hereof), then Parent shall take all actions that may be reasonably necessary to secure its rights and ensure the performance of such other party’s obligations thereunder as promptly as practicable.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement and the Contribution Agreement or the Bright House Transactions shall not be deemed to be a Parent Acquisition Proposal or otherwise be subject to the provisions of this Section 7.04.

Section 7.05 Approval by Sole Members of New Charter, Merger Subsidiary Two and Merger Subsidiary Three. Immediately following the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto, Parent shall cause the sole members of New Charter, Merger Subsidiary Two and Merger Subsidiary Three to adopt this Agreement and approve the Mergers, in accordance with Delaware Law, by written consent.

Section 7.06 Voting of Shares. Parent shall vote all shares of Company Stock beneficially owned by it or any of its Subsidiaries (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, any such shares held by any employee benefit plan of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or any trustee or other fiduciary in such capacity under any employee benefit plan) in favor of adoption of this Agreement at the Company Stockholder Meeting.

Section 7.07 Director and Officer Indemnification. (a) From and after the Effective Time, New Charter shall indemnify and hold harmless and provide advancement of expenses to, the present (as of the date hereof or any time prior to the Effective Time) and former officers and directors of the Company and Parent, respectively, and their respective Subsidiaries and any individual who is as of the date of this Agreement or commences, prior to the Effective Time, serving at the request of the Company or Parent, respectively, or any of their respective Subsidiaries as a director or officer of another Person (each, an “Indemnified Person”) in respect of (i) acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, (ii) the fact that such Indemnified Person is or was a director or officer, or is or was serving at the request of the Company or Parent (as applicable) or any of their respective Subsidiaries as a director or officer of another Person prior to the Effective Time and (iii) this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, in each case, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware Law or any other Applicable Law or provided under the Company’s or Parent’s (as applicable) or their respective Subsidiaries’ certificate of incorporation and bylaws or comparable organizational documents in effect on the date hereof; provided that such indemnification and advancement of expenses shall be subject to any limitation imposed from time to time under Applicable Law; provided, further, that any Person to whom expenses are advanced shall provide an undertaking to repay such advances to the extent required by Applicable Law.

(b) From and after the Effective Time, New Charter shall cause to be maintained in effect provisions in its and each of its Subsidiaries’ certificate of incorporation and bylaws and comparable organizational documents (or in such documents of any successor to the business of each of the parties hereto, as applicable) regarding elimination of liability of directors,

-78-

indemnification of officers, directors and employees and advancement of expenses with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time that are no less advantageous to the intended beneficiaries than the corresponding provisions in existence on the date of this Agreement in the Company’s, Parent’s and such Subsidiaries’ certificate of incorporation and bylaws and comparable organization documents, as applicable.

(c) New Charter shall either (i) continue to maintain in effect for six years after the Effective Time the Company’s and Parent’s (as applicable) directors’ and officers’ insurance policies and fiduciary liability insurance policies (collectively, “D&O Insurance”) in place as of the date hereof or (ii) purchase comparable D&O Insurance for such six-year period, in each case with respect to any claim related to any period of time at or prior to the Effective Time with coverage not less than the existing coverage and other terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are at least as favorable as those contained in the D&O Insurance in effect as of the date hereof; provided that in no event shall New Charter be required to expend for such policies pursuant to this sentence an aggregate premium amount in excess of 300% of the amount per annum the Company or Parent (as applicable) paid in its last full fiscal year, which amount is set forth in Section 7.07(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedule with respect to the Company and Section 7.07 of the Parent Disclosure Schedule with respect to Parent; and provided, further, that if the aggregate premiums of such insurance coverage exceed such amount, New Charter shall be obligated to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available, with respect to matters occurring prior to the Effective Time, for a cost not exceeding such amount. At the Company’s option, the Company may purchase, prior to the Effective Time, a six-year prepaid “tail policy” with coverage not less than the existing coverage and other terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are at least as favorable as those contained in the D&O Insurance in effect as of the date hereof, in which event New Charter shall cease to have any obligations under the first sentence of this Section 7.07(c); provided that the aggregate premium for such policies shall not exceed 300% of the amount per annum the Company paid in its last full fiscal year. In the event the Company elects to purchase such a “tail policy,” New Charter shall maintain such “tail policy” in full force and effect and continue to honor their respective obligations thereunder.

(d) If New Charter or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, New Charter shall cause proper provision to be made so that the successors and assigns of New Charter shall assume the applicable obligations of such party set forth in this Section 7.07.

(e) The rights of each Indemnified Person under this Section 7.07 shall be in addition to any rights such Person may have under the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company, Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or under Delaware Law or any other Applicable Law or under any agreement of any Indemnified Person with the Company, Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries. These rights shall survive consummation of the Company Mergers and the Parent Merger and are intended to benefit, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Person.

-79-

Section 7.08 Stock Exchange Listing. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the shares of New Charter Common Stock to be issued as part of the Merger Consideration to be listed on NASDAQ, subject to official notice of issuance.

Section 7.09 Employee Matters (a) New Charter shall provide, or shall cause to be provided, to each employee of the Company and its Subsidiaries who continues to be employed by New Charter or its Subsidiaries (including, for the avoidance of doubt the New Charter and its Subsidiaries) immediately following the Effective Time (each, a “Continuing Employee”), other than any Continuing Employee included in a collective bargaining unit during the Continuation Period (each, a “Represented Employee”), with, to the extent employed by New Charter or its Subsidiaries, (i) during the period beginning at the Effective Time and ending on the first anniversary of the Effective Time (the “Continuation Period”), base pay and annual cash bonus opportunities, as applicable, that are no less favorable in the aggregate than provided to each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, (ii) during the Continuation Period, commission and cash incentive opportunities that are no less favorable than either those provided to each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date or those provided to similarly situated employees of New Charter or its Subsidiaries following the Closing Date, and (iii) until December 31, 2016, employee benefits that are no less favorable in the aggregate than provided to each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date; provided, that, for purposes of determining whether such pay, opportunities and benefits are no less favorable in the aggregate, long-term cash incentive compensation, equity compensation, defined benefit pension plan benefits, severance, retention (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any supplemental cash bonus opportunity paid or payable in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Company’s terminated merger agreement with Comcast Corporation), sale, stay, or change in control payments or awards or any similar compensation or benefit, shall not be taken into account. With respect to Represented Employees, New Charter shall retain, or shall cause to be retained, any and all of the rights and obligations it may have pursuant to Applicable Law.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 7.09(a), beginning on the Closing Date, New Charter shall, or shall cause one of its Subsidiaries to, for the benefit of each Continuing Employee, other than any Represented Employee, (i) honor all contracts providing for severance to the extent and in accordance with their terms and (ii) honor, without amendment, all plans providing for severance for the Continuation Period or for any longer period during which such amendments are prohibited under the terms of the applicable plan, in all cases, as long as such contract or plan is set forth on Section 7.09 of the Company Disclosure Schedule. It is intended that Section 7.09(a) and this Section 7.09(b) shall not result in any duplication of benefits to any Continuing Employee.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 7.09(a), beginning on the Closing Date, New Charter shall, or shall cause one of its Subsidiaries to, for the benefit of each Continuing Employee, other than any Represented Employee, honor, without amendment, all compensation plans, arrangements, or agreements set forth on Section 7.09 of the Company Disclosure Schedule for the Continuation Period or for any longer period during which such amendments are prohibited under the terms of the applicable plan, in all cases, as long as such contract or plan is set forth on Section 7.09 of the Company Disclosure Schedule.

-80-

(d) To the extent that Continuing Employees, other than Represented Employees, become eligible to participate in any “employee benefit plan,” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, maintained by New Charter or any of its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “New Charter Plans”), then, for purposes of determining (i) eligibility to participate and vesting and, (ii) solely with respect to any New Charter Plan that provides for severance, vacation or paid-time off benefits, for purposes of benefit accrual, service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time shall be treated as service with New Charter or any of its Subsidiaries to the extent recognized by the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that such service shall not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in any duplication of benefits and the New Charter shall not be required to provide credit for such service for eligibility, vesting or benefit accrual purposes under any New Charter Plan that is an equity compensation plan, defined benefit pension plan or postretirement medical plan. In addition, subject to the terms of the applicable New Charter Plan and legal requirements applicable to such New Charter Plan, New Charter shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (x) waive all limitations as to preexisting conditions, exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to Continuing Employees under any New Charter Plan that is a welfare benefit plan in which such Continuing Employees may be eligible to participate after the Effective Time and (y) provide each Continuing Employee with credit for any co-payments and deductibles paid during the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs in satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements under any New Charter Plans that are welfare plans in which such Continuing Employee is eligible to participate after the Effective Time.

(e) For the avoidance of doubt and to the extent required by any Company Plan or Applicable Law, New Charter shall, or shall cause one of its Subsidiaries to, expressly assume such Company Plan and all obligations thereunder.

(f) Upon the request of Parent prior to the Effective Time but after the date the conditions set forth in Article 9 (other than conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or, to the extent permissible, waiver of those conditions at the Closing) have been satisfied or, to the extent permissible, waived by the party or parties entitled to the benefits of such conditions, effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall terminate or shall cause the termination of any or all U.S. tax-qualified defined contribution plans provided to current and former employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries, as directed by the Parent and in compliance with Applicable Law.

(g) Parent and the Company shall coordinate in good faith to develop a mutually agreed communications strategy with respect to employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries (the “Employee Communication Strategy”). Except for communications that are substantially in accordance with the Employee Communication Strategy, (i) without the prior written consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), Parent shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, contact, meet or otherwise communicate with any director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, either on an individual or group basis and (ii) Parent shall provide the Company with a reasonable right to comment on and approve (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) any written communications by the Parent intended for distribution (whether individual or broad-based) to current or former directors, officers or employees of the Company or its Affiliates prior to the Closing regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

-81-

(h) Without limiting the generality of Section 11.06, nothing contained in this Section 7.09, expressed or implied, shall (i) be treated as the establishment, amendment or modification of any Company Plan or New Charter Plan or, subject to compliance with the requirements of Sections 7.09(a) and 7.09(b), constitute a limitation on rights to amend, modify, merge or terminate after the Effective Time any Company Plan or New Charter Plan, (ii) give any current or former employee, director or other independent contractor of the Company and its Subsidiaries (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof), any third-party beneficiary or other rights or (iii) obligate New Charter or any of its Affiliates to (A) maintain any particular Company Plan or New Charter Plan or (B) retain the employment or services of any current or former employee, director or other independent contractor.

Section 7.10 Certain Agreements.

(b) From the date hereof until the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, without the prior written consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), none of Parent, New Charter, Merger Subsidiary One, Merger Subsidiary Two, Merger Subsidiary Three or any of their respective Subsidiaries shall enter into, amend, modify or terminate any of the material agreements relating to the Bright House Transactions, including the Bright House Contribution Agreement or the Amended Contribution Agreement, in each case, if such amendment, modification or termination would reasonably be expected to have the effect of materially delaying, impairing or impeding the receipt of any regulatory approvals required in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or the Closing.

Section 7.11 Tax Treatment. Parent shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries (including Merger Subsidiary Two) not to, make an election under Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-3 to treat Merger Subsidiary Two as an association taxable as a corporation or take any other action that would cause Merger Subsidiary Two to be treated as other than a disregarded entity for both state and federal income Tax purposes.

Covenants of Parent and the Company

The parties hereto agree that:

Section 8.01 Consents and Approvals. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the Company and Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, and use their reasonable best efforts to cause their respective Affiliates to take, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, and assist and cooperate with the other in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable under Applicable Law to consummate and make effective the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including (i) preparing and filing as promptly as practicable with any Governmental Authority or other Third Party all documentation to effect all necessary, proper or advisable filings, notices, petitions, statements, registrations, submissions of information, applications and other documents and (ii) obtaining and maintaining all approvals, consents, registrations, permits, authorizations and other confirmations required to be obtained from any Governmental Authority or other Third Party that are necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (whether or not such approvals, consents, registrations, permits, authorizations and other confirmations are conditions to the consummation of the Mergers pursuant to Article 9).

(b) In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each of Parent and the Company shall make, and not withdraw, as promptly as practicable and in any event within 30 Business Days (or, in the case of the succeeding clauses (iii) and (iv), 60 days) of the date hereof, (i) an appropriate filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) all necessary filings to obtain consents from the FCC (including FCC Form 394 or other appropriate forms) that are required in connection with the Mergers, (iii) all necessary filings to obtain consents from the state regulators and the Franchise authorities that are required in connection with the Mergers and (iv) all other registrations, declarations, notices and filings with Governmental Authorities that are required in connection with the Mergers. Each of the Company and Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to supply, and use their respective reasonable best efforts to cause their respective Affiliates to supply, as promptly as practicable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested pursuant to the foregoing, and use its reasonable best efforts to take, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause its respective Affiliates to take, all other actions necessary to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods regarding the foregoing as soon as practicable.

(c) Parent shall take the lead with respect to (i) the scheduling of, and strategic planning for, any meeting with any Governmental Authority under the HSR Act or any other Applicable Law, (ii) the making of any filings under the HSR Act or any other Applicable Law, (iii) the process for the receipt of any necessary approvals and (iv) the resolution of any investigation or other inquiry of any such Governmental Authority. Without limiting the foregoing sentence, except as prohibited by Applicable Law, each of Parent and the Company shall, and shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to cause their respective Affiliates to (A) to the extent reasonably practicable, consult with each other prior to taking any material substantive position with respect to the filings under the HSR Act or any other Applicable Law in discussions with or

-83-

filings to be submitted to any Governmental Authority, (B) to the extent reasonably practicable, permit the other to review and discuss in advance, and consider in good faith the views of the other in connection with, any analyses, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals to be submitted to any Governmental Authority with respect to filings under the HSR Act or any other Applicable Law, and (C) to the extent reasonably practicable, coordinate with the other in preparing and exchanging such information and promptly provide the other (and its counsel) with copies of all filings, presentations or submissions (and a summary of any oral presentations) made by such party with any Governmental Authority relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby under the HSR Act or any other Applicable Law.

(d) Unless prohibited by Applicable Law or by the applicable Governmental Authority, each of the Company and Parent shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, and shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to cause its respective Affiliates to, (i) to the extent reasonably practicable, not participate in or attend any meeting, or engage in any substantive conversation with any Governmental Authority in respect of the Mergers (including with respect to any of the actions referred to in Section 8.01(a)) without the other (provided that, subject to Section 8.01(c), either party may participate in or attend any such non-substantive meeting), (ii) to the extent reasonably practicable, give the other reasonable prior notice of any such meeting or conversation and (iii) in the event one party is prohibited by Applicable Law or by the applicable Governmental Authority from participating or attending any such meeting or engaging in any such conversation, keep such party reasonably apprised with respect thereto; provided that, Parent or its representatives may conduct such a meeting or conversation without the Company or its representatives present upon the prior written consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the parties hereto understand and agree that “reasonable best efforts” shall require Parent to take any actions and accept any conditions and other remedies to the extent such actions, conditions or other remedies would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the condition (financial or otherwise), business, assets or results of operations of Parent, the Company and their Subsidiaries, taken as a whole (but without taking into account the Bright House Transactions, whether or not consummated) (each such condition, remedy or action that Parent is not required to accept or take under this Section 8.01(e), a “Burdensome Condition”). The Company agrees to work in good faith in connection with Parent’s efforts to obtain the regulatory approvals consistent with this Section 8.01 in a manner that Parent believes in good faith is in the best interests of the combined company and its shareholders. In addition, the Company shall not accept any of the conditions or take any of the foregoing actions (whether or not consistent in scope and magnitude with such prior conditions and actions) without Parent’s prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party shall be required to commit to or effect any action contemplated by this Section 8.01(e) or accept any condition that is not conditioned upon the consummation of the Mergers.

(f) Each of Parent and the Company shall not, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates not to, (i) take any action that would reasonably be expected to have the effect of materially delaying, impairing or impeding the receipt of any regulatory approvals required in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or the Closing, or (ii) acquire or agree to acquire (by merger, consolidation, acquisition of stock or assets or otherwise), directly

-84-

or indirectly, any assets, securities (other than securities issued by such party as permitted by Section 6.01 or Section 7.01, as the case may be), properties, interests or business in any transaction or series of related transactions, if such acquisition would (A) require approval of the FCC, or (B) (without the consent of the other, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) have a value, or involve the payment of consideration, in excess of $350 million; provided, however, that (x) nothing in this Agreement (including the foregoing sentence) shall prohibit Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates from consummating the Bright House Transactions and no reasonable actions taken in furtherance of the Bright House Transactions shall be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement (including this Section 8.01) and (y) nothing in this Agreement shall limit the ability of Parent or its Subsidiaries from bidding on or purchasing wireless spectrum to the extent it would not reasonably be expected to have the effect of materially delaying, impairing or impeding the receipt of any regulatory approvals required in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or the Closing.

(g) Each of the Company and Parent may, as each deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other under this Section 8.01 as information that may be reviewed only by outside counsel. Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside counsel of the recipient and, subject to any additional confidentiality or joint defense agreement the parties may mutually propose and enter into, will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers or directors of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials (the Company or Parent, as the case may be) or its legal counsel. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.01, materials provided to the other party or its outside counsel may be redacted (i) to remove references concerning valuation, (ii) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements and (iii) as necessary to address reasonable attorney-client or other privilege or confidentiality concerns.

Section 8.02 Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus; Registration Statement. (a) As promptly as practicable, the Company, New Charter and Parent shall prepare and file the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus and the Registration Statement (in which the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus will be included) with the SEC.

AGREEMENT

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for the mutual promises contained in this Agreement and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be bound, the parties hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

PURCHASE AND SALE OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK

Section 1.1 Purchase and Sale of the Shares.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, at the Closing Purchaser shall subscribe for and purchase, and New Charter shall issue and sell to Purchaser, a whole number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (x) Parent Merger Exchange Ratio (as defined in the Mergers Agreement) multiplied by (y) the quotient of the Aggregate Purchase Price divided by the Price Per Share (the “Purchased Shares”), free and clear of any Lien (other than any restrictions created by Purchaser, and any restrictions on transfer arising under the Securities Act and state securities laws).

(b) The closing of the purchase of the Purchased Shares (the “Closing”) shall take place on the Closing Date after the satisfaction or, subject to applicable Law, waiver of the conditions set forth in Articles V and VI hereof (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction of those conditions), or on such other date as the parties may mutually agree. The Closing shall be held at the offices of Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz, 51 West 52^nd Street, New York, New York 10019, at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Closing Date, or at such place and time as the parties shall agree.

ARTICLE II

PROXY MATERIALS AND STOCKHOLDERS MEETINGS

Section 2.1 Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

(a) Reasonably promptly after the date hereof, but consistent with the requirements set forth in the Mergers Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC a proxy statement/prospectus on Form S-4 (which could be a joint proxy statement/prospectus) for a special meeting of its stockholders (as amended or supplemented, the

2

“Proxy Statement/Prospectus”). The Company shall include in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus a solicitation relating to the approval, for purposes of Article Eighth of the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, of the issuance of the Purchased Shares to Purchaser (the “Stock Issuance Approval”) and, if the Company decides to do so, the approvals required by Sections 4.02(a) and 5.02(a) of the Mergers Agreement (the “Merger Approvals” and together with the Stock Issuance Approval, the “Stockholder Approvals”). Purchaser and its Affiliates shall promptly furnish to the Company such information regarding Purchaser and its Affiliates as shall be required to be included in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus pursuant to the Exchange Act. Prior to filing the Proxy Statement/Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, the Company shall provide Purchaser with reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such proposed filing solely with respect to the Stockholder Approval and any information relating to Purchaser, its Affiliates or any of its designees to the Board of Directors of the Company. If at any time prior to the Closing Date, any information should be discovered by any party hereto that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus so that the Proxy Statement/Prospectus would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties hereto and, to the extent required by applicable Law, an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed by the Company with the SEC and, to the extent required by applicable Law, disseminated by the Company to the stockholders of the Company.

(b) The Company shall promptly notify Purchaser of the receipt of any comments from the SEC or the staff of the SEC and of any request by the SEC or the staff of the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus or for additional information and shall supply Purchaser with copies of all correspondence between it or any of its representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or the staff of the SEC, on the other hand, with respect to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. The Purchaser shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt of any comments from the SEC or the staff of the SEC and of any request by the SEC or the staff of the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Purchaser Proxy Statement/Prospectus or for additional information and shall supply Purchaser with copies of all correspondence between it or any of its representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or the staff of the SEC, on the other hand, with respect to the Purchaser Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

(c) The Company shall mail the Proxy Statement/Prospectus to the holders of its Common Stock in accordance with customary practice after the SEC’s review of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus is completed.

Section 2.2 Stockholders Meeting. The Company shall, in accordance with customary practice, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a special meeting of its stockholders (the “Stockholders Meeting”) as contemplated by Section 7.03 of the Mergers Agreement or as otherwise decided by the Company. A proposal relating to the approval, for purposes of Article Eighth of the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, of the issuance of the Purchased Shares to Purchaser, and, if the Company decides to do so, proposals relating to the approvals required by Section 5.02 of the Mergers Agreement shall be presented to the stockholders of the Company at the Stockholders Meeting for approval. Subject to the fiduciary duties of the Company’s directors under Delaware Law, as determined by a majority of the

3

members of the Company’s Board of Directors unaffiliated with Purchaser, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, the Board of Directors of the Company will recommend that the holders of the Common Stock vote at the Stockholders Meeting in favor of each of the proposals relating to the Stock Issuance Approval and the Merger Approvals, and the Company will use reasonable best efforts to solicit from such stockholders proxies in favor of such proposals.

Section 2.3 Publicity. No press release or public announcement concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby will be issued by any party hereto or any of its Affiliates, without the prior consent of the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed except as such release or announcement may be required by applicable Law or the rules of, or listing agreement with, any national securities exchange on which the securities of such Person or any of its Affiliates are listed or traded, in which case, the Person required to make the release or announcement will, to the extent practicable, allow the other party reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any press release or other public statement to the extent it contains substantially the same information as previously communicated by one or more of the parties.

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PARTIES

Section 3.1 Representations and Warranties of the Company and New Charter. Each of the Company and New Charter hereby represents and warrants to Purchaser that:

(a) The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and New Charter has been duly organized and is validly existing as a limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. Each of New Charter and the Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, and to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery by the Company and New Charter of this Agreement and the consummation by the Company and New Charter of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and no other corporate proceedings on the part of the Company or New Charter are necessary to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by the Company and New Charter of this Agreement or the consummation by the Company and New Charter of the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each of the Company and New Charter and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery hereof by Purchaser, such agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each of the Company and New Charter, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject, as to enforcement, to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.

(b) The only vote of the holders of any class or series of capital stock of the Company required to approve the transactions contemplated hereby is (i) the approval of each of the Merger Approvals by the requisite stockholder vote set forth in the Mergers Agreement at the Stockholders Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof where a majority of the

4

shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Company Common Stock”), that are outstanding on the record date for the Stockholders Meeting are present (in person or by proxy) and entitled to vote and (ii) the approval of the Stock Issuance Approval by the requisite stockholder vote set forth in the Mergers Agreement at the Stockholders Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof where a majority of the shares of Company Common Stock that are outstanding on the record date for the Stockholders Meeting are present (in person or by proxy) and entitled to vote.

(c) The Purchased Shares will be, when issued, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Purchased Shares will not be issued in violation of any preemptive rights or any rights of first offer, first refusal, tag-along rights or other similar rights or restrictions in favor of any other person, and Purchaser will acquire such Purchased Shares free and clear of any Lien (other than any restrictions created by Purchaser, and any restrictions on transfer arising under the Securities Act and state securities laws).

(d) The issue and sale of the Purchased Shares and the compliance by New Charter and the Company with all of the provisions of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which the Company, New Charter or any of their respective subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company, New Charter or any of their respective subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company, New Charter or any of their respective subsidiaries is subject, (ii) assuming the Stockholders Approvals are obtained, any provisions of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company or the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company or the organizational documents of New Charter, and (iii) assuming the accuracy of, and Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations, warranties and agreements of Purchaser herein, any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any Governmental Entity having jurisdiction over the Company, New Charter or any of their respective subsidiaries or any of their respective properties, except, in the case of clauses (i) and (iii) above, for any such conflict, breach, violation or default that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to (x) prevent or materially impair or delay the performance by the Company or New Charter of its respective obligations under this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, or (y) impair Purchaser’s full rights of ownership to the Purchased Shares; and no consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any such Governmental Entity is required for the offer and sale of the Purchased Shares or the consummation by the Company and New Charter of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (other than in connection or in compliance with the HSR Act or any applicable antitrust, merger or competition Law and the registration under the Securities Act of the offer and sale of the Purchased Shares to Purchaser). On or prior to the Closing Date, the issuance of the Purchased Shares to Purchaser will have been duly registered on an appropriate form under the Securities Act to the extent permitted by the rules of the SEC.

(e) The forms, reports, statements, schedules and other materials the Company was required to file with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act or other federal securities laws since January 1, 2012 (the “Exchange Act Reports”), when they were filed with the SEC, conformed in all material respects to the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the applicable rules

5

and regulations of the SEC thereunder; and as of the date hereof, no such documents were filed with the SEC since the SEC’s close of business on the Business Day immediately prior to the date of this Agreement. The Exchange Act Reports did not, as of their respective dates, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(f) None of the information contained in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus will at the time of the mailing of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus to the stockholders of the Company, at the time of any amendments thereof or supplements thereto and at the time of the Stockholders Meeting, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that no representation is made by the Company with respect to statements made or incorporated by reference therein based on information supplied by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries).

The execution and delivery by Purchaser of this Agreement and the consummation by Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and no other

6

corporate proceedings on the part of Purchaser are necessary to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by Purchaser of this Agreement or the consummation by Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Purchaser and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery hereof by the Company and New Charter, such agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject, as to enforcement, to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.

(b) Purchaser’s compliance with all of the provisions of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or require the giving of notice or making a filing under, (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which it or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any of its or its subsidiaries’ property or assets is subject, (ii) any provisions of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Purchaser or the Bylaws of Purchaser or (iii) any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any Governmental Entity having jurisdiction over it or any of its subsidiaries or any of their properties, except, in the case of clauses (i) and (iii) above, for any such conflict, breach, violation or default that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impair or delay the performance by Purchaser of its obligations under this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby; and no consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any such Governmental Entity is required for the consummation by Purchaser of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (other than in connection or in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act and the securities or blue sky Laws of the various states or the HSR Act or any applicable antitrust, merger or competition Law).

(c) None of the information supplied in writing by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates for inclusion in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus will at the time of the mailing of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus to the stockholders of the Company, at the time of any amendments thereof or supplements thereto and at the time of the Stockholders Meeting, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(d) Purchaser will have on the Closing Date sufficient funds to purchase the Purchased Shares.

(e) As of the date hereof, there is no action, suit, investigation or proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of Purchaser, threatened against Purchaser or any of its Affiliates that questions the validity of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby, or any action to be taken by Purchaser pursuant hereto, which would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impair or delay the performance by Purchaser of its obligations under this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(a) Each party hereto shall cooperate with the other party and use its respective reasonable best efforts to promptly take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do, or cause to be done, all things, necessary, proper or advisable to cause the conditions to Closing to be satisfied as promptly as practicable and to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the transactions and perform the covenants contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) Each of Purchaser, New Charter and the Company will cooperate and consult with the other and use reasonable best efforts to prepare and file all necessary documentation, to effect all necessary applications, notices, petitions, filings and other documents, and to obtain all necessary permits, consents, orders, approvals and authorizations of, or any exemption by, all Governmental Entities, and expiration or termination of any applicable waiting periods, necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and to perform the covenants contemplated by this Agreement, it being agreed that each of the Company and Purchaser shall make or file any such applications, notices, petitions or filings required to be made by it with Governmental Entities in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable following the date of this Agreement. Each party shall execute and deliver after the Closing such further certificates, agreements and other documents and take such other actions as the other party may reasonably request to consummate or implement such transactions or to evidence such events or matters. In particular, each party will use its reasonable best efforts to promptly obtain, and will cooperate as may reasonably be requested by the other party and use its reasonable best efforts to help the other party promptly obtain or submit, as the case may be, as promptly as practicable, the approvals and authorizations of, filings and registrations with, and notifications to, or expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period, under the HSR Act or any applicable antitrust, merger or competition law for Purchaser to be able to acquire the Purchased Shares (“HSR Clearance”). Notwithstanding any covenants of the parties set forth herein, none of the parties hereto will be required to take any action requiring, or enter into any settlement, undertaking, condition, consent decree, stipulation or other agreement with any Governmental Entity that requires such party or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to (x) hold separate (in trust or otherwise), divest itself or otherwise rearrange the composition of any assets, businesses or interests of such party or any of its Affiliates or imposes any limitations on such person’s freedom of action with respect to future acquisitions of assets or with respect to any existing or future business or activities or on the enjoyment of the full rights of ownership, possession and use of any asset now owned or hereafter acquired by any such person (including any securities of Purchaser or of the Company and the voting and other rights related to ownership thereof), (y) agree to any other conditions or requirements or to take any other actions that are adverse or burdensome or would reasonably be expected to adversely affect such person, in order to satisfy

8

Each of Purchaser and the Company will have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable each will consult with the other, in each case subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, with respect to all the information relating to the other party, and any of their respective Affiliates, which appears in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party or any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In exercising the foregoing right, each of the parties hereto agrees to act reasonably and as promptly as practicable. Each party hereto agrees to keep the other party apprised of the status of matters relating to completion of the transactions contemplated hereby. Purchaser, New Charter and the Company shall promptly furnish each other, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, with copies of written communications received by them or their Affiliates from, or delivered by any of the foregoing to, any Governmental Entity in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) Each party shall give the other parties hereto prompt written notice upon becoming aware of any Action commenced or, to the knowledge of such party, to which such party is or may become a party (including any such Claim in the right of any such party) (x) relating to or involving this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, or (y) seeking to enjoin, restrain, restrict, limit or prohibit the transactions contemplated hereby or any of the rights, privileges or preferences to which the Purchaser is entitled as the owner of the Purchased Shares. The party giving such notice shall give the other parties hereto the opportunity to participate in (but not control) the defense and settlement of any such Claims and such party agrees to use, and to cause its Affiliates, directors and officers to use, its commercially reasonable efforts to defend or contest any such Claim. The parties receiving such notice will cooperate with other party hereto in its defense of such Claims as it may reasonably request.

Section 4.3 Interim Conduct of Business. During the period commencing on the date of this Agreement and ending on the Closing Date, except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement or any Exhibit or Schedule hereto, the Mergers Agreement or the Contribution Agreement, or consented to in writing by Purchaser (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the Company (i) shall conduct its operations in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and in accordance with its Agreement and (ii) shall not authorize or issue, sell, deliver or agree to commit to issue, sell or deliver (whether through the issuance, exercise or granting of options, warrants, call, commitments, subscriptions, rights to purchase or otherwise) shares of any class or series of capital stock, limited liability company interest, or other equity interest of the Company or New Charter (other than pursuant to the issuance of equity compensation awards in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice). Notwithstanding anything to contrary contained herein, the Company may pursue backstop financing (including the issuance of equity securities) to ensure the availability of an

9

amount in cash equal to the Aggregate Purchase Price in connection with the funding of its obligations under the Mergers Agreement on the Closing Date, and in connection therewith may negotiate the terms of such replacement financing and, to the extent the Company deems reasonably necessary, enter into agreements and instruments effecting such replacement financing; provided, however, that the parties acknowledge that such backstop financing will only be utilized in the event the Purchaser fails to perform its obligations hereunder in breach of this Agreement, and the execution of any such financing instrument by the Company will not be deemed a consent by the Purchaser to any equity issuance and will not limit, restrict or modify the Purchaser’s rights under this Section 4.3.

Section 4.4 Stockholders Agreement.

(a) The parties hereby covenant and agree to amend the Stockholders Agreement, dated as of March 19, 2013, between the Company and Purchaser (the “Stockholders Agreement”), as follows: (i) Section 3.3 shall be deleted and replaced with “[Reserved.]”, (ii) with respect to the defined term “Annual Termination Window,” clause (x) shall be deleted in its entirety and the reference to “2017” in clause (y) shall be replaced with “2020” and (iii) in the defined term “Termination Notice,” the year “2017” shall be replaced with the year “2020.”

(b) The Company hereby waives the covenants contained in Sections 3.2(e) and 3.2(h) of the Stockholders Agreement to the extent that the agreements, arrangements and understandings with and among Purchaser (together with its affiliates and associates), Liberty Interactive Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“LIC”), and any third party investors acquiring shares of Purchaser in connection with the Mergers would constitute a breach thereof (for the avoidance of doubt, such waiver shall apply to any joint venture or other partnership arrangements, proxy arrangements and similar relationships entered between or among such persons in connection with the completion of the Mergers and the transaction contemplated hereby); provided that no such Person shall acquire beneficial ownership of any Common Stock in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or by the Mergers Agreement other than pursuant to the Liberty Contribution Agreement, the Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement and this Agreement.

(c) The Company hereby agrees, from and following the Closing, that the Investor Designees (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement) on the New Charter board will be entitled to receive the same compensatory arrangements as all other New Charter board members (notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Stockholders Agreement).

Section 4.5 New Charter Certificate. The Company hereby agrees that, subject to the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement, the restated certificate of incorporation of New Charter, in effect upon completion of the Mergers, shall not include the provision set forth in Article Eighth of the Company’s existing Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (or any comparable provision thereto).

Section 4.6 Mergers Agreement. The Company covenants and agrees not to amend, waive or modify, in any material respect that is adverse to Purchaser, any provision of the Mergers Agreement without the prior written consent of Purchaser, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, provided, however, that any such amendment,

10

modification or waiver that (x) is reasonably likely to result in an increase in the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately following the completion of the Mergers or (y) is reasonably likely to result in a reduction to the effective exchange rate at which Purchaser and LIC have agreed to exchange their existing shares of Target common stock in the Mergers shall be deemed to be material and Purchaser will be entitled to withhold its consent thereto, in its sole discretion.

Section 4.7 Board Matters. The Board of Directors of New Charter will adopt the resolutions set forth on Exhibit A hereto, no later than contemporaneously with its conversion to a corporation under Delaware law.

Section 4.8 Efforts to Enforce. The Purchaser agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to cause each of Liberty Interactive Corporation, JANA Nirvana Master Fund, Ltd., JANA Master Fund, Ltd. and Coatue Offshore Master Fund, Ltd. to perform their respective obligations under the Investment Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, including by performing its obligations thereunder, using its reasonable best efforts to cause such investors to perform their obligations thereunder, enforcing its rights against such investors, and bringing suit for specific performance by such investors. The Purchaser agrees not to terminate, nor to waive nor amend any provision of any such Investment Agreement which would delay or make less likely the consummation of the Investment contemplated hereby or thereby. The Purchaser further agrees not to exercise any right or election that would have the effect of reducing the amount of any investor’s commitment under any such Investment Agreement, unless (i) the Purchaser has obtained an alternative, debt or equity-linked form of financing in an equivalent amount or (ii) a commitment reduction is required by the terms of the applicable investment agreement.

Section 4.9 USRPHC. Each of New Charter and the Company will cooperate and consult with Purchaser in connection with the preparation of an analysis and methodology to determine whether the Company and/or New Charter is or will be a United States real property holding corporation, as defined in Section 897(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (a “USRPHC”) as of the Closing Date, including as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Mergers Agreement and the Bright House Transactions (as defined in the Mergers Agreement), or has any plan or intention to become a USRPHC. Such cooperation shall include the provision of information that is reasonably relevant to any such analysis and determination and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided to Purchaser in connection with the foregoing.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 8.1 Registration Rights. The parties hereto agree that in connection with the Closing, they will negotiate in good faith to execute a customary registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Such agreement will contain the following material terms:

(a) Demand Registration. The Registration Rights Agreement will provide that, any time following the Closing, Purchaser shall be entitled to request that New Charter use reasonable best efforts to register under the Securities Act the secondary offer and sale of its Common Stock (with New Charter’s full management cooperation available for two (2) road shows per twelve (12) month period (provided that the second road show shall be in connection with an offering of at least $500 million), to the extent advised by the underwriters, if applicable, and at New Charter’s expense, other than underwriters’ discounts) to the extent requested by Purchaser.
