The financial information presented herein should be read in conjunction with the financial information and related discussion and analysis included in our June 30, 2016 Quarterly Report and our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

LIBERTY GLOBAL PLC
Notes to Attributed Financial Information
June 30, 2016
(unaudited)



(1)
Attributed Financial Information
The terms “LiLAC Group” and “Liberty Global Group” do not represent separate legal entities, rather they represent those businesses, assets and liabilities that have been attributed to each group. The LiLAC Group comprises our businesses, assets and liabilities in Latin America and the Caribbean and has attributed to it (i) LGE Coral and its subsidiaries, which include CWC, (ii) VTR Finance and its subsidiaries, which include VTR, (iii) Lila Chile Holding B.V. (Lila Chile Holding), which is the parent entity of VTR Finance, (iv) LiLAC Holdings and its subsidiaries, which include Liberty Puerto Rico, and (v) prior to July 1, 2015, the LiLAC Corporate Costs. Effective July 1, 2015, the LiLAC Corporate Costs were transferred to LiLAC Holdings. The Liberty Global Group comprises our businesses, assets and liabilities not attributed to the LiLAC Group, including Virgin Media, Ziggo Group Holding, Unitymedia, Telenet, UPC Holding, our corporate entities (excluding the LiLAC Corporate Costs) and certain other less significant entities. Accordingly, the accompanying attributed financial information for the Liberty Global Group and the LiLAC Group includes the assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and cash flows of the respective entities within each group. Any business that we may acquire in the future that we do not attribute to the LiLAC Group will be attributed to the Liberty Global Group.
Our board of directors is vested with discretion to reattribute businesses, assets and liabilities that are attributed to either the Liberty Global Group or the LiLAC Group to the other group, without the approval of any of our shareholders, and may use the liquidity of one group to fund the liquidity and capital resource requirements of the other group. Accordingly, shareholders may have difficulty evaluating the future prospects and liquidity and capital resources of each group.
(2) Income Taxes
We generally have accounted for income taxes for the Liberty Global Group and the LiLAC Group in the accompanying attributed financial information on a separate return basis, as adjusted to reflect the consolidated view of the tax asset, liability, benefit or expense (tax attribute) of each group. Accordingly, except as otherwise noted below, any tax attribute associated with an entity attributed to the Liberty Global Group has been allocated to the Liberty Global Group and any tax attribute associated with an entity attributed to the LiLAC Group has been allocated to the LiLAC Group.
Liberty Global owns consolidated interests in a number of entities that are included in combined or consolidated tax returns, including tax returns in the Netherlands (the Dutch Fiscal Unity), the U.K. (the U.K. Tax Group) and the U.S (the U.S. Tax Group). Different members of the Liberty Global Group file combined tax returns for the Dutch Fiscal Unity and U.K. tax returns, where sharing of certain tax attributes is permitted, and consolidated tax returns for the U.S. Tax Group. Certain entities included in the Dutch Fiscal Unity, the U.K. Tax Group and the U.S. Tax Group are attributed to the LiLAC Group. As a result, we record inter-group tax allocations to recognize changes in the tax attributes of certain members of the LiLAC Group that are included in the Dutch Fiscal Unity, the U.K. Tax Group or the U.S. Tax Group. Prior to July 1, 2015, the inter-group tax allocations reflected in the attributed financial information were not cash settled and were not the subject of tax sharing agreements. Accordingly, inter-group tax allocations prior to July 1, 2015 are reflected in the attributed financial information as adjustments of equity. Following the adoption of the tax sharing policy described below, certain inter-group tax allocations are expected to be cash settled.
Effective July 1, 2015 (the date we distributed the LiLAC Shares), the allocation of tax attributes between the Liberty Global Group and the LiLAC Group is based on a tax sharing policy. This tax sharing policy, which may be changed in future periods at the discretion of the board of directors of Liberty Global, generally results in the allocation of Liberty Global’s tax attributes to the Liberty Global Group and the LiLAC Group based on the tax attributes of the legal entities attributed to each of the groups. Nevertheless, to the extent that Liberty Global management concludes the actions or results of one group give rise to changes in the tax attributes of the other group, the change in those tax attributes are generally allocated to the group whose actions or results gave rise to such changes. Similarly, in cases where legal entities in one group join in a common tax filing with members of the other group, changes in the tax attributes of the group that includes the filing entity that are the result of the actions or financial results of one or more members of the other group are allocated to the group that does not include the filing entity. For periods beginning on and after July 1, 2015, we will record non-interest bearing inter-group payables and receivables in connection with the allocation of tax attributes. These inter-group payables and receivables are expected to be cash settled annually within 90 days following the filing of the relevant tax return to the extent that tax assets are utilized or taxable income is included in the return for the applicable taxable year. In the case of allocated tax assets, inter-group payables and receivables will only be recorded to the extent that the realization by the ultimate tax-paying entity is considered to be more-likely-than-not. At June 30, 2016, we do not believe that it is more-likely-than-not that we will realize the tax assets of the Dutch Fiscal Unity. To the extent that tax assets are not utilized in the year generated, the related receivables and payables will remain outstanding until such time as the underlying tax assets are utilized.

_______________
(a)
The statutory or “expected” tax rate is the U.K. rate of 20.0%. During 2015, the U.K. enacted legislation that will change the corporate income tax rate from the current rate of 20.0% to 19.0% in April 2017 and 18.0% in April 2020. Substantially all of the impact of these rate changes on our deferred tax balances was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2015 when the change in law was enacted.
(b)

_______________
(a)
The statutory or “expected” tax rate is the U.K. rate of 20.0%. During 2015, the U.K. enacted legislation that will change the corporate income tax rate from the current rate of 20.0% to 19.0% in April 2017 and 18.0% in April 2020. Substantially all of the impact of these rate changes on our deferred tax balances was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2015 when the change in law was enacted.
(b)
Country jurisdictions giving rise to increases within the six-month period are grouped together and shown separately from country jurisdictions giving rise to decreases within the six-month period.
(c)
Amounts reflect adjustments (either an increase or a decrease) to “expected” tax benefit (expense) for statutory rates in jurisdictions in which we operate outside of the U.K.

Allocated Expenses
Prior to July 1, 2015, we did not allocate any of the costs of the Liberty Global Group’s corporate functions to the LiLAC Group. Following the July 1, 2015 distribution of the LiLAC Shares, we began to allocate a portion of these costs, excluding share-based compensation expense, to the LiLAC Group based primarily on the estimated percentage of time spent by corporate personnel providing services for each group. The allocated amount, which is cash settled and is periodically re-evaluated, is presented as inter-group fees and allocations in the attributed statement of operations information.
The share-based compensation expense reflected in the accompanying attributed statement of operations information is based on the share incentive awards held by the employees of the respective entities comprising the Liberty Global Group and the LiLAC Group.
The income tax benefit and expense of the Liberty Global Group and the LiLAC Group includes inter-group tax allocations. For additional information concerning our inter-group tax allocations, see note 2 to this attributed financial information.
While we believe that our allocation methodologies are reasonable, we may elect to change these allocation methodologies or the percentages used to allocate operating and SG&A expenses in the future.

Inter-group Transactions
Inter-group Interest
On May 16, 2016, pursuant to a scheme of arrangement and following shareholder approvals, we acquired CWC for shares of Liberty Global. Under the terms of the transaction, CWC shareholders received in the aggregate: 31,607,008 Class A Liberty Global Shares, 77,379,774 Class C Liberty Global Shares, 3,648,513 Class A LiLAC Shares and 8,939,316 Class C LiLAC Shares. Further, in accordance with the scheme of arrangement and immediately prior to the acquisition, CWC declared the Special Dividend to its shareholders in the amount of £0.03 ($0.04 at the transaction date) per CWC share. The Special Dividend was paid to CWC shareholders promptly following the closing and the payment, together with fees and expenses related to the acquisition, was funded with CWC liquidity, including incremental debt borrowings, and LiLAC Group corporate liquidity.

Following completion of the CWC Acquisition, we attributed CWC to the LiLAC Group, with the Liberty Global Group being granted an inter-group interest in the LiLAC Group representing the fair value (as determined by our board of directors) of the Liberty Global Shares issued as part of the purchase consideration. Liberty Global Group's inter-group interest in the LiLAC Group was $3.9 billion as of June 30, 2016. On July 1, 2016, we completed the LiLAC Distribution, thereby eliminating the Liberty Global Group's inter-group interest in the LiLAC Group. The LiLAC Distribution, which will be accounted for prospectively effective July 1, 2016, has not been reflected in our June 30, 2016 condensed consolidated financial statements.

As of June 30, 2016, the Liberty Global Group’s ownership interest in the LiLAC Group is reflected as an inter-group interest in the LiLAC Group in Liberty Global Group’s attributed balance sheet information and an increase to equity in the LiLAC Group’s attributed balance sheet information. During the period from May 16, 2016 through June 30, 2016, we recorded the Liberty Global Group’s 67.5% share of the LiLAC Group’s loss during this period in Liberty Global Group’s attributed statement of operations information with a corresponding offsetting amount recorded in the LiLAC Group’s attributed statement of operations information.

Lila Chile Note
On July 11, 2014, Lila Chile Holding and Liberty Global Holding B.V. (Liberty Global Holding), an entity attributed to the Liberty Global Group, entered into a loan agreement (the Lila Chile Note). At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, Liberty Global Holding owed Lila Chile Holding $8.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively, in principal pursuant to the Lila Chile Note. The Lila Chile Note bears interest at 5.9% per annum and has a repayment date of July 11, 2022. The principal and accrued interest on the Lila Chile Note are included in the LiLAC Group’s other assets, net, and the Liberty Global Group’s long-term debt and capital lease obligations in the attributed balance sheet information. Accrued and unpaid interest is generally transferred to the principal balance on January 1 of each year. The net increase in the Lila Chile Note during the six months ended June 30, 2016 includes (i) cash loans of $6.8 million and (ii) the transfer of $0.4 million in non-cash accrued interest to the principal balance.
