SummaryofNVCSDividendStructure NVCS dividend payment is backed by distributable profits and a premium reserve Each NVCS to receive €0.175 annual dividend Prisa may pay the minimum annual dividend from two sources: distributable profits, as defined by Section 273 of the Spanish Companies Law of 2010, and from the premium reserve created in connection with the issuance of the NVCSs If, in a given financial year, Prisa earns sufficient distributable profits to pay the full amount of the minimum dividend due to the holders of NVCSs, then Prisa must submit this payment out of distributable profits to shareholders for approval If distributable profits in a given financial year are insufficient to pay the full amount of the minimum dividend due to the holders of the NVCSs, then any shortfall would be paid from the premium reserve in respect of the NVCSs Partial dividends are payable and any shortfalls may be made up in subsequent years prior to conversion1 The premium reserve may only be used for dividend payments on NVCSs or upon mandatory conversion2 The premium reserve is the difference between stated value and nominal value (€0.10) of NVCSs The stated value per NVCS will be calculated as the market value of Liberty at that time (based on the average closing prices of Liberty's common stock and warrants during the last full three-month period ending prior to the closing date) divided by the aggregate number of ordinary shares and NVCSs issued to Liberty stockholders and warrantholders in the business combination Note: If the minimum dividend payable in respect of a given financial year exceeds the sum of distributable profits in that year and the then-existing balance of the premium reserve in respect of the NVCSs, then a partial dividend will be paid for such year, up to the amount of such distributable profits plus the then-existing balance of the premium reserve in respect of the NVCSs, pro rata in respect of the NVCSs. Any remaining shortfall would be added to the minimum dividend payable in respect of the NVCSs in the following year The premium reserve will be non-distributable for so long as any NVCSs remain outstanding, other than for the payment of the minimum dividend on the NVCSs in the event that there are insufficient distributable profits to pay the full amount of such dividend. The premium reserve may also be distributed in connection with mandatory conversion of the NVCSs Based on 3 NVCSs issued per Liberty share and €/$ exchange rate of 1.287 as of September 3, 2010 Illustrative Net Present Value Sensitivity of NVCS Dividends

StrategyImpact:CustomerandARPUGrowth Sustaining ARPU Addressing Customer Churn Soccer war had significant impact on ARPU mix. Income is now transitioning from PPV into subscription revenue, as (Canal+ Liga channel replaces main PPV fixtures). Launched in 2010, Canal Liga already has 800,000 subscribers (1H 2010) In the second quarter of 2010, the ARPU amounted to €42.2, which was an increase of 1.6% compared to the same period the previous year The implementation of PVR, HD and 3D is expected to drive subscription ARPU Subscribers in 1H2009 were impacted in part because of the confusion with regards to the broadcasting of soccer matches created by the legal dispute between AVS and Mediapro regarding Spanish League Soccer Broadcast Rights 2H09 showed improvements despite full football coverage only resumed in 4Q09 Trends in 1H10 show recovery August 2010 is the fifth consecutive month of decline in cancellations and churn rate improvement (year-on-year).

AudiovisualResults Revenue EBITDA Revenue from the sale of audiovisual rights and programs decreased by 33.4% from 2008 to 2009, from €347.8 million to €231.7 million. This decrease was due primarily to the negative impact of a change in the soccer marketing model at Sogecable Until June 2009, Sogecable consolidated all revenues received from cable operators and all costs payable to the Spanish League and for the Cup football rights As of September 2009, Sogecable no longer accounted for 100% of the costs of these rights. Sogecable signed an agreement with Mediapro for the media exploitation of soccer games, which provided for Digital+ and Canal+Liga subscribers to receive all the Spanish League and Cup broadcasts for the next three seasons.

Recent Developments On March 15th, 2010, Madrid's court No. 36 ruled in favor of the claim of AVS against Mediapro: ruling that Mediapro must pay €105 million and must return football-broadcast rights to AVS Barcelona's Mercantile Court No. 7 approved Mediapro's filling for insolvency. This court has to enforece the judgment of the Madrid's court No. 36 On June 30th, Sogecable deposited the first payment for the 2010/2011 season (€90million), therefore Sogecable is assured of the soccer games transmission for that season Source: Prisa Before 2007 Soccer War 2007 - Jun 209 Jun 2009 Overview 2006.
