ITEM 1.01. ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

On April 25, 2014, Charter Communications, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a binding definitive agreement (the “Agreement”) with Comcast Corporation (“Comcast”), which contemplates three transactions: (1) a contribution and spin-off transaction, (2) an asset exchange and (3) a purchase of assets (collectively, the “Transactions”) as described in more detail below. The Transactions are expected to be executed substantially contemporaneously with each other and will be consummated as promptly as practicable following the merger of a subsidiary of Comcast with Time Warner Cable, Inc. (“TWC”) as previously announced by Comcast and TWC. The completion of the Transactions will result in the combined Comcast-TWC entity divesting approximately 3.9 million customers and the Company acquiring 1.4 million existing TWC customers, increasing the Company’s current video customer base from 4.4 million to approximately 5.7 million, and making the Company the second largest cable operator in the United States. The Agreement has been approved by the Boards of Directors of both Comcast and the Company and TWC has consented to the Agreement.

Contribution and Spin-Off

The Agreement provides that Comcast will form a new entity (“SpinCo”), which will hold and operate systems currently owned by Comcast serving approximately 2.5 million existing Comcast customers (the “SpinCo Systems”), the relevant subscribers and any other assets, investments and businesses primarily related to the SpinCo Systems and will also assume liabilities primarily related to the SpinCo Systems and other assets transferred by Comcast to SpinCo (the “Contribution”).

The Company, Comcast and SpinCo will use reasonable best efforts to cause SpinCo to incur new indebtedness (“SpinCo Indebtedness”) in an amount equal to 5.0 times the 2014 EBITDA of the SpinCo Systems (as such term is defined by SpinCo’s financing sources for purposes of the financing) to fund a distribution to Comcast. Such distribution may be in the form of a cash distribution, with the remainder in new SpinCo notes which are expected to then be exchanged for outstanding Comcast notes in a debt-for-debt exchange.

Certain financial institutions are expected to conduct a tender offer for existing Comcast notes and to offer the new SpinCo Notes. The Company and Comcast will determine the cap on the expenses to be incurred in connection with the debt tender (the “Tender Expense Cap”). If the Tender Expense Cap is not sufficient to allow purchases in the debt tender, or the debt tender does not result in actual tenders, of notes that would be exchanged for SpinCo notes resulting in SpinCo leverage equal to 5.00 times the 2014 EBITDA of the SpinCo Systems, each of the Company and Comcast will have the right to fund additional tender premium at its own expense to increase SpinCo leverage. If the amount of Comcast notes ultimately tendered is less than the amount that, following exchange for new SpinCo Notes, would result in SpinCo leverage of at least 2.5 times 2014 EBITDA of the SpinCo Systems, the Transactions will be terminated. If as a result of the debt-for-debt exchange, the SpinCo leverage is more than 2.5 times but less than 5.0 times 2014 EBITDA of the SpinCo Systems, the Company will increase the Merger Consideration (as defined below) in accordance with the formula described below.

On the fifth day following the settlement of the debt tender, SpinCo notes to be issued to Comcast may be priced in the market on a best-efforts basis, in a principal amount (less original issue discount, if any) equal to the value of tendered Comcast notes, and Comcast may seek to have the banks exchange the SpinCo notes held by Comcast for the tendered Comcast notes.

Following the distribution and debt-for-debt exchange, Comcast will distribute all of the SpinCo shares to the holders of outstanding shares of Comcast common stock (including former TWC stockholders) (the “Spin-Off”). At Comcast’s election in lieu of the Spin-Off, the separation will be accomplished through an exchange offer by Comcast to exchange stock of SpinCo for outstanding shares of Comcast common stock (the “Split-Off”).

Following the distribution of all of the SpinCo shares to Comcast shareholders, CCH I, LLC (“New Charter”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, will convert into a corporation. A newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary of New Charter will merge with and into the Company with the effect that all shares of the Company will be converted into shares of New Charter (the “Charter Reorganization”) and New Charter will survive as the publicly-traded parent company of Charter. Another newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary of New Charter (“Merger Sub”) will merge with and into SpinCo, with SpinCo surviving (the “Merger”). In the Merger, (i) New Charter will

acquire an amount of SpinCo shares that will result in historic Comcast shareholders (not including former TWC stockholders) holding at least 50.75% of the SpinCo shares, which we estimate to be approximately 33% of the SpinCo shares, and (ii) in exchange for such SpinCo shares, the SpinCo shareholders will receive New Charter shares (the “Merger Consideration”) in the aggregate equal in value to such percentage ownership multiplied by the excess of (A) 7.125 times the Carveout 2014 EBITDA (as defined in the Agreement) of the SpinCo Systems over (B) the amount of SpinCo Indebtedness as of closing, plus certain other adjustments. The New Charter shares will be valued based on the 60-calendar day volume-weighted average price of the Company shares ending on the last trading day prior to closing. After the Spin-Off or Split-Off, Comcast will not have any ownership interest in SpinCo or New Charter. There will be a post-closing adjustment between Comcast and SpinCo to true up to actual Carveout 2014 EBITDA, and SpinCo will maintain a normalized level of working capital through the closing. New Charter will be subject to certain purchase restrictions with respect to SpinCo shares until the fourth anniversary of the closing, and Comcast will be subject to certain purchase restrictions with respect to SpinCo shares until the eighth anniversary of the closing.

At closing, SpinCo will have a board of 9 directors, separated into 3 classes, selected as follows: (i) 3 independent directors selected by Comcast and reasonably acceptable to the Company, each of whom shall be in a separate class, (ii) 3 independent directors selected by Comcast from a list of potential nominees provided by the Company, each of whom shall be in a separate class and (iii) 3 directors designated by the Company, who are currently expected to be officers of the Company, each of whom shall be in a separate class.

In addition, the Agreement contemplates that, immediately following the Merger, SpinCo and the Company will enter into a services agreement (the “Services Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company will provide certain services to SpinCo, including but not limited to network operations, engineering & IT, voice operations, field operations and customer service, in exchange for cost reimbursement. The Company will also receive a management services fee of 4.25% of SpinCo’s revenues. The Services Agreement will have an initial term of three years, automatically renewable for one-year terms unless either party gives notice of non-renewal at least one year prior to the end of the initial, or any renewal, term. The Services Agreement will also be terminable by either party for customary cause events.

Asset Exchange

At closing, the Company and Comcast will exchange certain systems serving approximately 1.6 million of customers of each company, together with the relevant customers and all the other assets and liabilities primarily related to such systems in a tax-efficient like-kind exchange (the “Exchange”). In exchange for its systems, Charter will receive systems currently owned by TWC. To the extent that the Carveout 2014 EBITDA of the exchanged systems of each company differs, a cash equalization payment will be made. In addition, there will be a post-closing adjustment between the Company and Comcast to true up to actual Carveout 2014 EBITDA (at a valuation of 7.125 times such Carveout 2014 EBITDA) and any variance of working capital of the exchanged systems from a normalized level of working capital.

Asset Purchase

At closing, the Company will acquire from Comcast systems currently owned by TWC and not included in the Exchange, serving approximately 1.4 million customers, together with the relevant customers and all the other assets and liabilities primarily related to such systems for cash consideration equal to 7.125 times Carveout 2014 EBITDA of such systems (the “Purchase”). The consideration for the Purchase will be financed with new indebtedness of Charter. If, within 30 days following the receipt of carveout financial statements for the systems included in the Purchase, Charter believes it will be unable to obtain financing for the Purchase, it may terminate the Transactions. If within such period, Charter has not delivered financing commitments with respect to such financing, either party may terminate the Transactions. Charter will pay to Comcast the tax benefit of the step up it receives in the tax basis of the assets acquired in the Purchase. Such tax benefit will be paid as realized by Charter over an eight year period, and an additional payment will be made at the end of such eight year period in the amount of any remaining tax benefit (on a present value basis).

Consummation of the Transactions is subject to customary closing conditions, including, among others, (1) completion of the Comcast-TWC transaction, (2) receipt of certain regulatory approvals for the Transactions, in

most cases without the imposition of a burdensome condition, as defined in the Agreement, (3) approval by the Company’s shareholders, and (4) with respect to the Company’s obligations, absence of a material adverse change with respect to the assets and liabilities transferred to SpinCo, the assets transferred by Comcast in the Exchange and the assets transferred by Comcast in the Purchase, taken as a whole, and with respect to Comcast’s obligations, absence of a material adverse change with respect to the assets and liabilities transferred by the Company in the Exchange and absence of a material adverse effect with respect to the Company, and also with respect to the Company’s obligations, absence of the assertion by the Company’s financing sources for the Purchase of a material adverse effect with respect to the Company.

The agreements for each of the Transactions shall be terminable: (1) upon termination of the Comcast-TWC transaction, (2) by either party on material breach of the other party, subject to cure provisions, (3) upon any final and non-appealable injunction or legal impediment, (4) within the time limits described above, in the event the Company is unable to obtain financing for the Purchase, (5) in the event the Company shareholder approval is not obtained, (6) solely by Comcast, in the event the Company’s board of directors makes an adverse change to its recommendation, and (7) if the Transactions have not been consummated within certain time frames from the completion of the Comcast-TWC transaction.

Although the Agreement contains all the material terms necessary to the completion of the Transactions and is binding on the parties, the parties have agreed to use their reasonable best efforts to negotiate and enter into more detailed agreements with respect to Transactions as promptly as reasonably practicable and in any event within 120 days after the date of this Agreement.

The foregoing descriptions of the Agreement and the Transactions do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Agreement which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

COMCAST/CHARTER TRANSACTIONS AGREEMENT

DATED AS OF APRIL 25, 2014



Parties	Charter Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Charter")
	Comcast Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation ("Comcast")
Transaction Steps	Subject to the satisfaction of applicable conditions described below, at Closing and in the following sequence, as promptly as practicable following the Comcast-TWC Transaction:

	● Comcast will form a new entity (“SpinCo”) holding the assets and liabilities to be included in the spin-off transaction and described under “SpinCo Assets and Liabilities” below (the “Contribution”);

	● The parties will use reasonable best efforts to arrange, and SpinCo will use reasonable best efforts to incur, new indebtedness (“SpinCo Indebtedness”) in an amount equal to 5.00 times the 2014 EBITDA of the SpinCo Systems (as such term is defined by SpinCo’s financing sources for purposes of the financing), as described in more detail in Schedule 1, of which indebtedness:

	○ to the extent there is basis in excess of the estimated amount of expenses to be reimbursed by SpinCo to Comcast as described on Schedule 1, an amount equal to such excess will be placed with third parties and such proceeds distributed (or, at Comcast’s election, an amount of cash in excess of such excess basis) to Comcast (the “Cash Dividend”), provided that the amount of the Cash Dividend shall be determined by Comcast in good faith with a view towards maximizing the Cash Dividend and minimizing any taxes to Comcast as a result of any potential payment relating back to the Spin-Off for federal income tax purposes; and

	○ the remainder of such indebtedness will be placed with Comcast, which will then effect a bank-intermediated debt-for-debt exchange (the “Debt-for-Debt Exchange”);

	● Comcast will distribute all of SpinCo’s shares to the holders of outstanding shares of Comcast common stock (pro forma for the Comcast acquisition of Time Warner Cable Inc. (“TWC”) (the “Comcast-TWC Transaction”) (the “Spin-Off”);



	○ At Comcast’s election, the separation will be accomplished through an exchange offer by Comcast to exchange stock of SpinCo for outstanding shares of Comcast common stock, provided that in no event shall such election result in a reduction in the number of SpinCo shares received by New Charter in the Merger.

	● A newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary of CCH I, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Charter (CCH I, LLC being referred to herein as “New Charter”), will merge with and into Charter with the effect that all shares of Charter shall become shares of New Charter (the “Charter Reorganization”). Immediately prior to the Charter Reorganization, New Charter shall convert into a corporation;

	● Another newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary of New Charter (“Merger Sub”) will merge with and into SpinCo, with SpinCo surviving (the “Merger”).

	○ In the Merger, New Charter shall receive a number of SpinCo shares in an amount equal to the maximum percentage of SpinCo shares as may be received without causing the shareholders of Comcast immediately prior to consummation of the Comcast-TWC Transaction (the “Historic Comcast Shareholders”) to own less (within the meaning of Section 355(e)) on a direct basis than the Comcast Shareholder Percentage (such percentage, the “SpinCo Percentage”), provided, however, that, at Charter’s election and with Comcast’s consent (such election to be considered by Comcast in good faith with a view towards ensuring the Intended Tax Treatment of the Transactions, and taking into account any IRS Ruling), the SpinCo Percentage shall be calculated by taking into account the 355(e) Look-Through Rule (partially or to the full extent permitted)) ¹; and

	○ In the Merger, SpinCo holders shall receive New Charter shares (the “Merger Consideration”) in the aggregate equal in value to the product of (x) the sum of (1) the excess of (A) 7.125 times the Carveout 2014 EBITDA of the SpinCo Systems over (B) the amount of SpinCo Indebtedness as of Closing (excluding the amount of SpinCo In-

¹ The “355(e) Look-Through Rule” means the rules of Code Section 355(e)(3)(A)(iv) and Code Section 355(e)(4)(C), and “IRS Ruling” means a private letter ruling delivered by the IRS in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Comcast. The 355(e) Look-Through Rule, if applied, shall be applied in the manner agreed by the parties or pursuant to the IRS Ruling, as applicable. For illustrative purposes only, were the Transactions effected as of the date hereof using the outstanding shares of Comcast as of 3/31/14 and TWC as of 2/10/14, it is estimated that the SpinCo Percentage would be approximately 33% (not giving effect to the 355(e) Look-Through Rule).



	debtedness incurred to pay expenses and reimbursements, in each case in cash or in SpinCo securities ), (2) the amount of SpinCo Financing Expenses incurred by Comcast and not reimbursed by SpinCo and (3) the fair market value of the SpinCo Non-System Assets times (y) the percentage of SpinCo’s outstanding shares owned by New Charter immediately after the Merger, such New Charter shares to be valued based on the 60-calendar-day VWAP of Charter shares ending on the last trading day prior to Closing (the “Charter Share Valuation”);

	Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Historic Comcast Shareholders shall, following the Merger, own no less than a 50.75% interest, within the meaning of Section 355(e), in SpinCo (at Charter’s election, and with Comcast’s consent (such election to be considered by Comcast in good faith with a view towards ensuring the Intended Tax Treatment of the Transactions, and taking into account any IRS Ruling), taking into account, partially or to the full extent permitted, the 355(e) Look-Through Rule) (the “Comcast Shareholder Percentage”) (and, for the avoidance of doubt, all shareholders of Comcast immediately prior to the Merger, including shareholders who were shareholders of TWC immediately prior to consummation of the Comcast-TWC Transaction, shall be treated pro rata in the Merger). The parties agree to work in good faith to determine the appropriate methodology for calculating the SpinCo Percentage and Comcast Shareholder Percentage.

	SpinCo shall not issue any options or other rights to purchase equity, securities or other instruments convertible into equity (to employees of SpinCo or otherwise), until after such time as the Merger Consideration has been calculated and paid;

	● Charter shall exchange with Comcast the assets and liabilities described under “Swap Assets and Liabilities” below in a tax-free like-kind exchange (the “Swap”); and

	● Charter shall acquire the assets and liabilities described under “Taxable Purchase Assets and Liabilities” below in a taxable asset purchase (the “Taxable Purchase,” and, with the Contribution, the Cash Dividend, the Debt-for-Debt Exchange, the Spin-Off, the Merger, the Charter Reorganization and the Swap, collectively the “Transactions”).

SpinCo Assets and Liabilities	Comcast shall transfer to SpinCo the following assets (collectively, the “SpinCo Assets”):

	● the systems currently owned by Comcast in the DMAs or sections of DMAs set forth under the ‘Comcast’ heading on Schedule 2



	(the “SpinCo Footprint”) and their actual subscribers, and all other assets (including employees) primarily related thereto (the “SpinCo Systems”), and

	● all other investments and businesses of Comcast related primarily to the cable system operations in the SpinCo Footprint (the “SpinCo Non-System Assets”), provided that any local news networks related primarily to the cable systems operations in the SpinCo Footprint shall be deemed part of the SpinCo Systems and not the SpinCo Non-System Assets.

	Immediately after Closing, SpinCo will have only the following liabilities (collectively, the “SpinCo Liabilities”):

	● all liabilities (other than any pre-Spin-Off income, income-based franchise or similar income-based tax liabilities) primarily related to the SpinCo Assets or to cable systems operations in the SpinCo Footprint, which for the avoidance of doubt:

	(i) will include without limitation the portion of payroll, pension, and other compensation and benefits liabilities to the extent related to the current and former employees of the businesses included in the SpinCo Assets,

	(ii) will not include any liabilities arising from any litigation against defendants that include any person or entity that is not included in the SpinCo Assets that is pending as of the closing that is related to both the SpinCo Assets and the Retained Assets (e.g., a claim against Comcast involving, in whole or in part, both SpinCo Assets and Retained Assets will be retained by Comcast and will not be a SpinCo Liability),

	(iii) will not include any liabilities of any entities wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by Comcast, TWC or their respective affiliates, in those instances in which those entities are included in the SpinCo Assets, other than to the extent that such liabilities would have been SpinCo Liabilities if held directly by Comcast, and

	(iv) for the avoidance of doubt, shall include the SpinCo Indebtedness, any liabilities of SpinCo whose incurrence is expressly contemplated by this Agreement and ordinary and typical liabilities incurred by SpinCo in connection with the organization and establishment of a publicly listed company (e.g., the obligation to pay franchise taxes, obligations as an Exchange Act filer and a listed company, new employee benefit obligations, etc.).

	It is understood and agreed that any assets associated with any



	SpinCo Liabilities will constitute SpinCo Assets to the extent related to such liabilities (e.g., in the case of pension liabilities included in the SpinCo Liabilities, pre-funded pension accounts will constitute SpinCo Assets to the extent related to such liabilities).

	Comcast will retain all other assets and liabilities (the “Retained Assets” and “Retained Liabilities”, respectively).

	At all times prior to Closing, Comcast shall cause SpinCo to operate in the ordinary course in all material respects and to maintain a normalized working capital amount (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that SpinCo working capital shall exclude cash and cash equivalents).

	In the event Closing occurs before audited SpinCo financial statements for fiscal year 2014 are made available to Charter, there shall be a true up of the Merger Consideration following Closing between Comcast and SpinCo (which true-up shall be based solely on the difference between estimated and actual Carveout 2014 EBITDA (as calculated pursuant to the provisions of “Terms Used in This Agreement”) of the SpinCo Systems and shall otherwise be calculated using the same inputs as described above). The true up shall be subject to the dispute resolution procedures described under “Dispute Resolution Procedures” below. In the event of any true up payment from SpinCo to Comcast or from Comcast to SpinCo, SpinCo or Comcast (as applicable) shall make such payment to the other person as soon as practicable, and in any event not later than six months following final resolution of the amount of such payment, provided that interest shall accrue on any such payment at a rate of 5% per annum starting 10 business days after final resolution of the amount of such payment.

Tax Sharing	SpinCo, Comcast and, solely for the purpose of its covenant and indemnification obligation in respect of the New Charter Tax Standstill pursuant to clause (i) below, New Charter shall enter into a customary tax sharing agreement, which shall provide that Comcast shall indemnify SpinCo for pre-closing income taxes of SpinCo and Comcast (including for the avoidance of doubt, any Spin-Off Taxes of Comcast for which Comcast is not indemnified pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) below), that New Charter and SpinCo shall indemnify Comcast for certain spin-off and other separation taxes and that Comcast shall indemnify SpinCo for certain spin-off (or other separation) related taxes resulting from the breach of customary representations, covenants and agreements, as well as other customary tax allocation and procedural matters.

	For the avoidance of doubt, the tax sharing agreement shall provide that:

	i. From and until the second anniversary of Closing (or otherwise pursuant to a “plan” within the meaning of



	Code Section 355(e)), New Charter shall not take any action that would result in (i) New Charter holding (or being treated as holding) SpinCo shares in excess of the SpinCo Percentage or (ii) to the extent the 355(e) Look-Through Rule is taken into account in determining the SpinCo Percentage, the Historic Comcast Shareholders owning less (within the meaning of Code Section 355(e) and taking into account the 355(e) Look-Through Rule) than the Comcast Shareholder Percentage (in the case of clause (ii), other than any action permitted by an IRS Ruling) (the “New Charter Tax Standstill”). In the event that Comcast is subject to any Spin-Off Taxes due to a violation of the New Charter Tax Standstill by New Charter, New Charter shall indemnify Comcast (on an after-tax basis) with respect to such Spin-Off Taxes, provided that such indemnification shall be structured in the most tax-efficient manner possible and shall be without duplication of any amounts for which Comcast has received indemnification from any other party.

	ii. From and until the second anniversary of Closing (or otherwise pursuant to a “plan” within the meaning of Code Section 355(e)), SpinCo shall not take any action that would result in (i) New Charter holding (or being treated as holding) SpinCo shares in excess of the SpinCo Percentage or (ii) to the extent the 355(e) Look-Through Rule is taken into account in determining the SpinCo Percentage, the Historic Comcast Shareholders owning less (within the meaning of Code Section 355(e) and taking into account the 355(e) Look-Through Rule) than the Comcast Shareholder Percentage (in the case of clause (ii), other than any action permitted by an IRS Ruling) (the “SpinCo Tax Standstill”). In the event that Comcast is subject to any Spin-Off Taxes due to any action of any person (other than (i) any action of Comcast or its affiliates (including the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Comcast for this purpose), and (ii) any action of any person with respect to Comcast) following the Spin-Off that is not described in the foregoing clause (i), including the Merger, the actions contemplated under “SpinCo Governance” or a violation of the SpinCo Tax Standstill by SpinCo, SpinCo shall indemnify Comcast (on an after-tax basis) with respect to such Spin-Off Taxes without duplication of any amounts for which Comcast has received indemnification from any other party, provided,



	however, that (A) if Comcast has a claim in respect of such Spin-Off Taxes against Liberty Media Corporation (“Liberty”) under the Voting Agreement between Comcast and Liberty entered into as of the date hereof and no SpinCo action shall have contributed to such Spin-Off Taxes, Comcast shall first have taken reasonable best efforts to pursue and exhaust any and all recourse available to Comcast against Liberty and (B) if both a SpinCo action and the action of another person gives rise to such Spin-Off Taxes, then Comcast shall pursue its available recourses against SpinCo and such other person. ²

	iii. In the event that the Spin-Off fails to qualify as tax-free to Comcast under Code Section 355 and/or the Debt-for-Debt Exchange fails to qualify as tax-free to Comcast under Code Section 361 and Comcast has not been indemnified for the Spin-Off Taxes arising from such failure, SpinCo shall pay Comcast for the value of the Tax Benefit (as applied to the Basis Step Up in respect of the Spin-Off) as a result of the step-up in basis as a consequence of such failure, (x) upon filing its tax return for each of the first eight taxable years (or portions of) ending following the closing, pursuant to the principles of clause (A) of Annex B and (y) upon filing its tax return for the Final Year, pursuant to the principles of clause (B) of Annex B, but using the Projection Assumption instead of the Valuation Assumption, provided, that SpinCo shall not intentionally take any action to delay the recognition of any Tax Benefit, and provided further, that, only depreciation and amortization that is allowable at such time shall be taken into account. Comcast shall make a timely protective election under Section 336(e) with respect to the Spin-Off.

	For purposes of the tax sharing agreement: (i) “Spin-Off Taxes ” means any taxes resulting directly from the Contribution, Spin-Off and Debt-for-Debt Exchange failing to qualify as tax-free under Code Sections 355, 361 and/or 368, in whole or in part, (ii) “Projection Assumption” means the assumption that, in each taxable year following the Final Year, SpinCo will generate an amount of taxable income as determined pursuant to the good faith best estimates of SpinCo management and as certified to Comcast by the Chief Financial Officer of SpinCo, and (iii) actions of any

² For the avoidance of doubt, any Spin-Off and other separation related taxes arising as a result of the application of Code Section 355(e) due to the fact that any information provided by Comcast (e.g., related to the number of SpinCo shares issued to historic Comcast shareholders and historic TWC shareholders) is incorrect shall not be allocated to SpinCo but instead shall be allocated to Comcast.



	subsidiary of New Charter, including Charter (but for the avoidance of doubt, excluding SpinCo), shall be considered actions of New Charter.

SpinCo Govern-ance	Immediately prior to the Merger, the board of SpinCo shall consist of a classified board of 6 directors, separated into 3 classes, selected as follows:

	● 3 independent directors selected by Comcast, each to be reasonably acceptable to Charter, each of which shall be in a separate class of directors;

	● 3 independent directors selected by Comcast from a list of potential nominees provided by Charter, each of which shall be in a separate class of directors, provided that if there are not 3 candidates on such list that are reasonably acceptable to Comcast, Charter shall submit lists of additional candidates to Comcast until 3 candidates that are reasonably acceptable to Comcast have been identified to serve.

	Immediately prior to the Merger, the board of Merger Sub shall consist of 3 directors selected by Charter, who are currently expected to be officers and/or directors of Charter.

	Pursuant to the Merger, the board of SpinCo shall be increased by 3 persons (to be 9 directors total), and the 3 directors of Merger Sub shall be added to the board of SpinCo, in order to fill such vacancies. Immediately following the Merger, each separate class of directors shall initially be comprised of one Merger Sub director, one director selected pursuant to the first bullet point above and one director selected pursuant to the second bullet point above.

	Furthermore, pursuant to the Merger, the officers of Merger Sub (selected by Charter after consultation with Comcast), each of whom shall be appropriately qualified for the applicable position and shall reasonably meet any applicable requirements set forth on the Governance, Management and Services Framework set forth on Annex A, shall become the officers of SpinCo immediately following the Merger and shall have customary indemnification agreements from SpinCo, provided that, as of immediately following the Merger, such officers shall be employees at will and, for the avoidance of doubt, may be terminated by the board of SpinCo at any time, with or without cause.

	Following the Merger, each committee of the board of SpinCo (other than any committee of independent directors required by applicable law or stock exchange rules) shall be comprised of 3 directors, who shall all be from the same class of directors, unless a majority of the independent directors on the SpinCo board determine (based on the advice of counsel)



	that a committee comprised of 3 directors from the same class of directors would be inappropriate as a result of a conflict of interest. Except for customary matters to be acted on by any committee that is otherwise comprised as required by applicable law or stock exchange rules, any committee that is not comprised of 3 directors of the same class may operate only in an advisory capacity to the Board; provided that any committee that is not so comprised as a result of a conflict of interest will be permitted to retain advisors.

	In addition, immediately following the Merger, SpinCo and Charter shall enter into a services agreement (the “Services Agreement”) pursuant to which Charter shall provide those services to SpinCo set forth in Appendix A to the Governance, Management and Services Framework set forth on Annex A, such services to be provided at actual, economic cost (with such economic cost reflecting (x) in the case of operational services such as a call center or network operation center (“Operational Services”) (excluding services provided via the inclusion of SpinCo under a third party contract), allocation of overheads directly related to providing such services, but not including overheads relating to employees at the Senior Vice President level or above and (y) in the case of Operational Services provided from a common location to both Charter and SpinCo, an appropriate proportional allocation basis (e.g., number of subscribers or work orders)), and in all cases without any markup (the "Shared Services Cost"). In addition, Charter shall receive a quarterly payment equal to 4.25% of SpinCo quarterly gross revenues to be paid to Charter in arrears (the “Services Fee”). The Services Agreement shall have an initial term of three years. The Services Agreement shall automatically renew for additional one-year terms, unless either party gives notice of non-renewal at least one year prior to the end of the three-year initial term (or one year prior to the end of any renewal term). The Services Agreement shall also be terminable by either party for customary cause events.

	Following Closing, SpinCo shall keep employees and operations intact as necessary to qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment of the Transactions. In those markets in which SpinCo has a larger field operations presence than Charter, if agreed by SpinCo and Charter, SpinCo may also provide services to Charter at the Shared Services Cost (as calculated for SpinCo). Subject to the requirements regarding approval of affiliate transactions set forth under “Future SpinCo Transactions,” SpinCo may modify such cost methodology mutually and reciprocally with Charter.

	All shares of SpinCo shall be of a single class carrying one vote per share.

SpinCo Organiza-tional Documents	The organizational and other governance documents of SpinCo that will be in effect immediately following the Merger shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to Charter, and such documents shall (x) provide that



	SpinCo’s certificate of incorporation may not be amended without the affirmative vote of 60% of SpinCo’s shareholders (or, with respect to the Tax Standstill Governance Provisions, as set forth below), (y) as applicable, contain terms consistent with the provisions hereof (e.g., classification and size of SpinCo board and composition of committees), and (z) provide that SpinCo shall not take any action during the duration of the Tax Standstill that would cause the Historic Comcast Shareholders to own less (within the meaning of Code Section 355(e)) than the Comcast Shareholder Percentage (clause (z) being referred to herein as the “Tax Standstill Governance Provisions”).

	To the fullest extent permitted by law, Comcast shall be a third-party beneficiary of the Tax Standstill Governance Provisions. In addition, amendment of the Tax Standstill Governance Provisions shall require the affirmative vote of 80% of SpinCo’s shareholders and the affirmative vote of 80% of the members of the SpinCo board.

Future SpinCo Transactions	Charter Purchase Restriction: From and after the second anniversary of Closing until the fourth anniversary of Closing, New Charter and its controlled affiliates shall not acquire beneficial ownership (as such term is defined pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Exchange Act”)) of any additional SpinCo shares if such acquisition would result in New Charter and its controlled affiliates beneficially owning in excess of 49% of the then-outstanding shares of SpinCo at such time (the “New Charter Ownership Cap”), other than any purchase in a transaction that is approved by: (i) a majority of the independent members of the SpinCo board; or (ii) a majority of SpinCo shareholders (other than New Charter). From and after the second anniversary of Closing until the fourth anniversary of Closing, SpinCo shall not take any action that would result in an increase in the percentage of outstanding shares of SpinCo owned by New Charter above the New Charter Ownership Cap (e.g., a repurchase of shares by SpinCo), other than any action that is approved by a majority of the independent members of the SpinCo board. For the avoidance of doubt, no increase in the percentage of outstanding shares of SpinCo owned by New Charter without the acquisition of beneficial ownership of SpinCo shares by New Charter (e.g., because of a repurchase of shares by SpinCo) shall be deemed to be a breach of the first sentence of this paragraph.

	New Charter and its controlled affiliates shall not be subject to any restriction on holding, acquiring or transferring SpinCo shares or other equity other than as set forth in the prior sentence, and SpinCo shall not adopt any shareholder rights plan or similar plan or agreement (or amend or modify any such plan or agreement) or adopt or approve any charter or by-law provision, in each case, the purpose or effect of which is to restrict or limit New Charter’s or its controlled affiliates’ ability to take



	any actions not inconsistent with the restrictions set forth in the prior sentence (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, this section shall not be interpreted to prohibit SpinCo’s ability to restrict the acquisition of shares by persons other than New Charter and its controlled affiliates in a manner that does not specifically prohibit persons from acquiring shares from New Charter or its controlled affiliates).

	The purchase restrictions on New Charter and its controlled affiliates set forth in this section shall terminate and be of no further force and effect in the event: (x) a party other than New Charter or its affiliates (which term includes, for the avoidance of doubt, Liberty and its affiliates, including Liberty Interactive Corporation and any “Related Entity” (as defined in the voting agreement entered into by Liberty and Comcast in connection with entry into this Agreement)) enters into a definitive agreement providing for such party’s acquisition of at least 25% of the assets or equity of SpinCo or commences a bona fide tender or exchange offer for at least 25% of SpinCo’s then-outstanding shares, (y) any person or group (within the meaning of the Exchange Act) other than New Charter or its affiliates (which term includes, for the avoidance of doubt, Liberty or its affiliates, including Liberty Interactive Corporation and any Related Entity) acquires beneficial ownership of 15% or more of the then-outstanding shares of SpinCo at such time or (z) New Charter and its controlled affiliates cease to beneficially own in excess of 15% of the then-outstanding shares of SpinCo or at any time beneficially own at least 90% of the then-outstanding shares of SpinCo as a result of acquisitions in compliance with the purchase restrictions of this section; provided that, in the case of clause (x), in the event the transaction related to such matter has not occurred and has been terminated within 12 months of the date on which the purchase restrictions terminated (or is terminated at any time after such 12 month period), then the purchase restrictions shall thereafter resume and continue to apply in accordance with the terms of this section, provided, however, that if, at such time, the beneficial ownership of New Charter and its controlled affiliates as a percentage of the then-outstanding shares of SpinCo shall be in excess of the New Charter Ownership Cap, the term “New Charter Ownership Cap” shall be deemed to be such greater percentage beneficial ownership.

	If SpinCo becomes insolvent or becomes the subject of bankruptcy proceedings, the foregoing shall not restrict New Charter or its controlled affiliates from seeking to enforce its rights and otherwise obtain recourse as a creditor of SpinCo.

	Comcast Purchase Restriction: From and after Closing until the eighth anniversary of Closing, none of Comcast or its controlled affiliates shall acquire beneficial ownership of any SpinCo shares if such acquisition would result in Comcast and its controlled affiliates beneficially owning in excess of 1% of the then-outstanding shares of SpinCo at such time,



	provided that in the event such ownership in excess of 1% is in a purely de minimis amount or on a purely transitory basis, Comcast (or its applicable affiliate) shall be able to cure such violation by disposing of SpinCo shares to cause its compliance. If SpinCo becomes insolvent or becomes the subject of bankruptcy proceedings, the foregoing shall not restrict Comcast or its controlled affiliates from seeking to enforce its rights and otherwise obtain recourse as a creditor of SpinCo.

	Affiliate Transactions: New Charter and its affiliates shall not enter into any transaction with SpinCo other than: (x) any transaction pursuant to any agreement in place at the Closing; (y) any transaction that has been approved by a majority of the independent directors of SpinCo; or (z) any transaction on arms-length terms with a value of $10 million or less.

Swap Assets and Liabilities	The systems currently owned by TWC or Charter in the DMAs or sections of DMAs set forth under the ‘Total TWC’ and ‘Charter’ headings, respectively, on Schedule 2 shall be conveyed in the Swap or, solely in the case of systems owned by TWC, the Taxable Purchase. The division of such assets between the Swap and the Taxable Purchase shall be determined by the parties on the basis of achieving the most tax efficient result in the aggregate (the “Schedule 2 Division”), which determination shall be completed as promptly as practicable after the date of this agreement, but no later than the date the Long-Form Agreements are executed.

	To the extent determined to be part of the Swap by the parties as part of the Schedule 2 Division, Comcast shall convey the systems currently owned by TWC in the DMAs or sections of DMAs set out on Schedule 2 (the “Comcast Swap Footprint”) and their actual subscribers, and all other assets (including employees) primarily related thereto (the “Comcast Swap Systems”), in exchange for the systems currently owned by Charter in the DMAs or sections of DMAs set out on Schedule 2 (the “Charter Swap Footprint”) and their actual subscribers, and all other assets (including employees) primarily related thereto (the “Charter Swap Systems”), as provided below.

	The assets and liabilities transferred by Comcast in the Swap will include assets and liabilities related to the Comcast Swap Footprint to the same extent as such assets or liabilities would be included in the SpinCo Assets or SpinCo Liabilities if the Comcast Swap Footprint were in the SpinCo Footprint (such assets and liabilities to be referred to as the “Comcast Swapped Assets” and the “Comcast Swapped Liabilities”). Likewise, the assets and liabilities transferred by Charter in the Swap will include assets and liabilities related to the Charter Swap Footprint to the same extent as such assets or liabilities would be included in the SpinCo Assets or SpinCo Liabilities if the Charter Swap Footprint were in the SpinCo



	Footprint (such assets and liabilities to be referred to as the “Charter Swapped Assets” and the “Charter Swapped Liabilities”).

	The Swap shall be completed as an exchange of property to which Section 1031 of the Code applies. For the avoidance of doubt, the like-kind exchange shall be done on a debt-free basis, with all systems delivered with normalized working capital at Closing, and a cash equalization payment shall be made to the extent of any difference in the Carveout 2014 EBITDA of the systems on each side of the Swap multiplied by 7.125. Following the Closing, there shall be true ups between Comcast and Charter with respect to the Comcast Swap Systems and the Charter Swap Systems, based on the product of (a) Carveout 2014 EBITDA of the Comcast Swap Systems or the Charter Swap Systems, as applicable, multiplied by (b) 7.125, as well as true ups based on any net working capital variance in respect of either the Comcast Swap Systems or the Charter Swap Systems (based on an agreed amount of normalized target working capital in each case). The true ups shall be subject to the dispute resolution procedures described under “Dispute Resolution Procedures” below.

	The Swap shall be effected through a “qualified intermediary” engaged by the parties to effectuate a like-kind exchange under Code Section 1031.

Taxable Purchase Assets and Liabili-ties	To the extent determined by the parties as part of the Schedule 2 Division, Comcast shall convey the systems currently owned by TWC in the DMAs or sections of DMAs set out on Schedule 2 (the “Taxable Purchase Footprint”) and their actual subscribers, and all other assets (including employees) primarily related thereto (the “Taxable Purchase Systems”), for the consideration described under “Taxable Purchase Consideration” below.

	The assets and liabilities transferred by Comcast in the Taxable Purchase will include assets and liabilities related to the Taxable Purchase Footprint to the same extent as such assets or liabilities would be included in the SpinCo Assets or SpinCo Liabilities if the Taxable Purchase Footprint were in the SpinCo Footprint (such assets and liabilities to be referred to as the “Taxable Purchase Assets” and the “Taxable Purchase Liabilities”). Taxable Purchase Assets that would constitute SpinCo Non-Systems Assets if they were included in the SpinCo Assets are referred to as “Taxable Purchase Non-System Assets.”

	The allocation of the consideration payable in the Taxable Purchase shall be determined pursuant to a third party valuation performed by an independent appraisal firm selected by Charter and which appraisal firm is reasonably acceptable to Comcast (the “Final Allocation”), provided that Comcast shall not be required to take any position on a tax return con-



	sistent with such allocation if Comcast in good faith believes such position would be inconsistent with any other position taken by Comcast on a tax return.

Taxable Purchase Consideration	The consideration payable in the Taxable Purchase shall be the sum of (1) the product of (x) Carveout 2014 EBITDA of the Taxable Purchase Systems multiplied by (y) 7.125 and (2) the fair market value of the Taxable Purchase Non-System Assets; and such consideration shall be payable by Charter in cash.

	Following the Closing there shall be a true up between Comcast and Charter based on the product of (a) Carveout 2014 EBITDA of the Taxable Purchase Systems multiplied by (b) 7.125, as well as a true up based on any net working capital variance (based on an agreed amount of normalized target working capital). The true ups shall be subject to the Dispute Resolution Procedures.

	In addition, Charter shall pay Comcast for the value of the step-up as provided in Annex B.

Dispute Resolution Procedures	The true ups shall be subject to customary dispute resolution procedures (the “Dispute Resolution Procedures”), including the following:

	● Comcast, Charter and/or SpinCo, as applicable, shall deliver final reports with respect to Carveout 2014 EBITDA of the relevant systems and the relevant net working capital (if applicable) by the later of (a) April 15, 2015 and (b) the 30th day following Closing,

	● The other party shall have a 30-calendar-day period following delivery of the report to review, have accountants verify, and give notice of any objections with respect to the report,

	● If notice of an objection is delivered within the 30-calendar-day review period, the parties shall have a 20-calendar-day period to negotiate with respect to such dispute, and
	● If the parties are not able to resolve such dispute within the 20-calendar-day negotiation period, the amounts in dispute shall be subject to customary review and resolution by an independent accountant selected from a list of accounting firms of recognized national standing to be agreed by the parties; provided that if, at such time, the parties have not been able to agree a list of accounting firms for this purpose, then each of the parties shall select one independent accountant of recognized national standing, and those two accountants shall select a third, independent accountant of recognized national standing to review and resolve the amounts in dispute. Any amounts in dispute resolved by the independent



	accountant shall not be resolved in a manner more favorable to a party than the terms proposed by such party.

Conditions	Completion of each Transaction shall be subject to

	● completion of the Comcast-TWC Transaction,

	● receipt of FCC and DOJ approvals for each of the Transactions without the imposition of a “Charter/Comcast Burdensome Condition” (as defined below),

	● receipt of franchise approvals for each of the Transactions (subject to thresholds for approvals or absence of approval requirements covering (x) 80% of video subscribers, with such threshold determined with respect to the Comcast Swap Systems and the Taxable Purchase Systems in the aggregate, and (y) 85% of video subscribers, with such threshold determined separately with respect to each of (1) the SpinCo Systems and (2) the Charter Swap Systems),

	● receipt of all required PUC approvals for each of the Transactions, without the imposition of a “Charter/Comcast Burdensome Condition”,

	● requisite vote of Charter stockholders (Comcast shall provide stockholder consent as SpinCo’s sole shareholder),

	● absence of injunction or legal impediment on any of the Transactions,

	● accuracy of representations and warranties with respect to each of the Transactions,

	● opinions of counsel as to the tax-free nature of (i) the Contribution and Spin-Off, (ii) the Debt-for-Debt Exchange and (iii) the Merger and the Charter Reorganization, taken together, in each case based on customary representations of the parties (the “Tax Opinions”),

	● performance of covenants with respect to each of the Transactions (including TWC covenants with respect to the applicable Comcast Swapped Assets through the closing of the Comcast-TWC Transaction)

	● with respect to Charter’s obligations, absence of a material adverse change with respect to the SpinCo Assets, SpinCo Liabilities, Comcast Swapped Assets , Comcast Swapped Liabilities, Taxable Purchase Assets and Taxable Purchase Liabilities, taken as a whole,



	● with respect to Comcast’s obligations, absence of a material adverse change with respect to the Charter Swapped Assets and Charter Swapped Liabilities, taken as a whole

	● with respect to Comcast’s obligations, absence of a Material Adverse Effect with respect to Charter (with the term “Material Adverse Effect” to be defined to mirror the term “Company Material Adverse Effect” in the Comcast-TWC merger agreement, as appropriately supplemented and/or adjusted to reflect the Transactions),

	● with respect to Charter’s obligations, absence of the assertion by Charter’s financing sources for the Taxable Purchase of a Material Adverse Effect with respect to Charter (with the term “Material Adverse Effect” to be defined to mirror the term “Company Material Adverse Effect” in the Comcast-TWC merger agreement, as appropriately supplemented and/or adjusted to reflect the Transactions),

	● listing of the SpinCo shares, and

	● effectiveness of registration statement for New Charter shares to be issued in the Merger and approval of listing on the NASDAQ.

	Completion of the Swap (but, for the avoidance of doubt, no other Transactions) shall be further subject to the absence of a change in law that would cause the Swap to not be treated as a tax-free exchange of property under Code Section 1031. In the event of such a change in law, the parties shall reasonably cooperate to restructure the Transactions in order to achieve the intended benefits of the Transactions (including the Swap).

	Where the above closing conditions have corresponding closing conditions in the Comcast-TWC Transaction, such closing conditions will mirror such corresponding closing conditions (including with respect to any materiality and “Material Adverse Effect” qualifiers, and including that “Material Adverse Effect” shall be defined to mirror the term “Company Material Adverse Effect” in the Comcast-TWC merger agreement), in each case as may be appropriately supplemented and/or adjusted to reflect the Transactions and the express terms of the above closing conditions; provided that the foregoing shall be without prejudice to any of the above closing conditions that are in addition to or otherwise do not have corresponding closing conditions in the Comcast-TWC Transaction.

Closing	The parties intend that the Transactions shall be consummated (the “Closing”) substantially contemporaneously with each other, assuming satisfaction of the conditions described above.

Representations	Comcast to make customary representations and warranties as of signing



and Warranties	and as of the Closing as to the SpinCo Assets, SpinCo Liabilities, Comcast Swapped Assets, Comcast Swapped Liabilities, Taxable Purchase Assets and Taxable Purchase Liabilities.

	Charter to make customary representations and warranties as of signing and as of the Closing as to the Charter Swapped Assets and Charter Swapped Liabilities.

	Where the Transactions and the Comcast-TWC Transaction have corresponding representations and warranties, the representations and warranties in the Transactions shall mirror the corresponding representations and warranties in the Comcast-TWC Transactions, in each case as may be appropriately supplemented and/or adjusted to reflect the Transactions; provided that the foregoing shall be without prejudice to the inclusion of customary representations and warranties in the Transaction that are in addition to or otherwise do not have corresponding representations and warranties in the Comcast-TWC Transaction.

	Comcast has obtained the irrevocable consent of TWC to the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. Such consent constitutes a valid and binding agreement of TWC, enforceable against TWC in accordance with its terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity). Such consent is effective, non-withdrawable and not subject to any condition or the performance of any obligation

Interim Operating Covenants	SpinCo Assets, Comcast Swapped Assets and Taxable Purchase Assets (to the extent currently owned by Comcast) to be operated by Comcast in the ordinary course of business and pursuant to customary limitations/commitments.

	Charter shall have the benefit of the covenants in the Comcast-TWC merger agreement with respect to Comcast Swapped Assets and Taxable Purchase Assets (to the extent currently owned by TWC), and Comcast shall provide the same covenants to Charter for SpinCo Assets , Comcast Swapped Assets and Taxable Purchase Assets (to the extent currently owned by Comcast).

	Charter Swapped Assets to be operated by Charter in the ordinary course of business and pursuant to customary operational limitations/commitments, which, as may be appropriately supplemented and/or adjusted to reflect the specific assets, shall mirror the operational limitations/commitments applicable to the SpinCo Assets, Comcast Swapped Assets and Taxable Purchase Assets.



	The parties (in conjunction with TWC) shall cooperate to produce forthwith and as promptly as practicable audited pro-forma financial statements reflecting the respective separate pools of assets/liabilities (“Pro-Forma Financial Statements”) to be transferred under this agreement; it being understood that the goal is to permit the parties to access credit markets at the earliest possible date after signing of this agreement. Each of Comcast, SpinCo and Charter shall utilize the Pro-Forma Financial Statements in order to complete its financing and shall have overall supervision for the financial statements to be used in its financing documents. In connection with the foregoing, the parties and TWC shall provide each other with access and information as may be customary or necessary in connection with the access of the credit markets.

	Each party shall have customary access to information, personnel and diligence of the other party, including with respect to existing affiliate relationships relating to the SpinCo Assets, Comcast Swap Systems, Charter Swap Systems and Taxable Purchase Systems.

	Prior to consummation of the Transactions, each of the parties shall use its reasonable best efforts consistent with this agreement to cause the Transactions to qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment. Each of the parties shall use its good faith efforts to obtain the Tax Opinions, including giving customary representation letters. Each of the parties shall use its reasonable best efforts not to take or cause to be taken any action (or fail to take or cause to be taken any action) that would cause to be untrue any of the representations set forth in such party’s respective representation letter.

	Charter shall not, at any time that would reasonably be expected to fall within the 100-calendar-day period ending on Closing, split, combine or otherwise reclassify the shares of its common stock, or declare, set aside or make any dividend or other distribution to its shareholders (whether cash or stock), or engage in a reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or exchange or other like change, or redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire any shares of its common stock or publicly announce any intention to do any of the foregoing (other than redemptions pursuant to the exercise of, or the withholding of taxes in connection with, any compensatory equity awards or the net-issuance exercise of any currently-outstanding warrants). If, due to uncertainty as to when the Closing will occur or for any other reason, Charter takes any of the actions contemplated by the preceding sentence within the 100-calendar-day period ending on Closing, then such Charter action shall not be deemed to be a breach of a covenant, but instead the Merger Consideration shall be equitably adjusted to reflect the impact of such event.



Indemnities	Comcast to indemnify Charter post-closing for (a) liabilities not included in the Comcast Swapped Liabilities or Taxable Purchase Liabilities, (b) the Charter Swapped Liabilities, (c) inaccuracies in Comcast’s representations and warranties (subject to disclosure schedules and customary caps and baskets), and (d) covenant breaches by Comcast or TWC.

	Charter to indemnify Comcast post-closing for (a) liabilities not included in the Charter Swapped Liabilities, (b) the Comcast Swapped Liabilities, (c) inaccuracies in Charter’s representations and warranties (subject to disclosure schedules and customary caps and baskets), (d) the Taxable Purchase Liabilities and (e) covenant breaches by Charter.

	SpinCo to indemnify Comcast post-closing for (a) the SpinCo Liabilities and (b) covenant breaches by SpinCo.

	● upon termination of the Comcast-TWC Transaction,

	● by either party on material breach of the other party, subject to cure provisions,

	● upon any final and non-appealable injunction or legal impediment,

	● as contemplated on Schedule 1,

	● in the event the Charter Shareholder Vote is not obtained at the Charter Shareholder Meeting (including any adjournment or postponement thereof),

	● solely by Comcast, in the event the Charter board of directors makes an adverse change to its recommendation that Charter shareholders approve the requisite vote, and

	● if the Transactions have not been consummated by:

	○ if each of (i) the waiting periods under the HSR Act applicable to the Transactions shall have been terminated or expired (and no court of competent jurisdiction shall have entered an order enjoining the Transactions), (ii) the FCC issues its decision (or decisions) (which shall be defined in a manner that mirrors the term “FCC Order” in the Comcast-TWC merger agreement) consenting to the Transactions and (iii) the closing conditions relating to



	franchise approvals and PUC approvals have been satisfied or waived by the party or parties entitled to the benefit thereof (the “Required Transaction Approvals”) at or before the completion of the Comcast-TWC Transaction, then 60 calendar days after the completion of the Comcast-TWC Transaction; provided that if, on or prior to such 60th calendar day, the tender offer for Comcast’s outstanding debt has been launched as contemplated by Schedule 1, then the 60 calendar day period noted above shall be extended for an additional 30 calendar days; or

	○ if any of the Required Transaction Approvals are not received at or before the completion of the Comcast-TWC Transaction, then 150 calendar days after the completion of the Comcast-TWC Transaction, provided that, if at the 75^th calendar day after the completion of the Comcast-TWC Transaction, all closing conditions are satisfied or waived (other than conditions that are only capable of being satisfied at closing) other than the closing conditions relating to franchise approvals or PUC approvals, such 150 day period shall be extended by 90 days to provide additional time to obtain such approvals.

Regulatory Matters	The parties agree to use their reasonable best efforts to obtain all approvals required to be obtained from any governmental authority or third party in order to consummate the Transactions (the “Approvals”), subject to (with respect to all parties) the limitations of “Burdensome Condition” provided for in the Comcast-TWC merger agreement, provided that there shall be no requirement to make any divestitures; provided, further, that no condition or action shall constitute a “Burdensome Condition” to the extent related to franchises or RSNs (a “Charter/Comcast Burdensome Condition”). The parties acknowledge and agree that nothing in this paragraph shall restrict any party’s practice of making efforts, taking positions and requesting approvals and/or consents for a variety of matters from a variety of regulators (which efforts, positions or requested approvals and/or consents may be inconsistent with or contrast with those made, taken or requested by the other party). The parties shall seek to obtain the Approvals at the same time Comcast and TWC receive approvals required from any governmental authority or third party in order to consummate the Comcast-TWC Transaction, it being understood that nothing in this sentence will prevent Comcast from complying with its obligations under the Comcast-TWC merger agreement or waiving any conditions to completion of the Comcast-TWC Transaction. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Comcast-TWC Transaction is completed, any condition that is imposed on and accepted by Comcast to facilitate providing or obtaining required regulatory approvals for the Comcast-TWC Transaction, other than any condition that re-



	lates solely to Transaction Assets for which there is no substantially similar condition that relates to assets other than Transaction Assets, may not be invoked by Comcast as a Burdensome Condition to allow Comcast not to proceed with the Transactions.

	Within 30 days after the date of this agreement, Comcast and Charter shall use reasonable best efforts to file, and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause TWC to file, (i) appropriate filings of Notification and Report Forms pursuant to the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”) with respect to the Transactions, (ii) all necessary filings to obtain consents from the FCC (including FCC applications and public interest statements) that are required in connection with the Transactions and (iii) all necessary filings to obtain consents from the state regulators and the franchise authorities that are required in connection with the Transactions. The Hart-Scott-Rodino notifications and the FCC applications and public interest statements with respect to the Transactions shall request, and Comcast and Charter shall reasonably advocate, that the DOJ and FCC evaluate and terminate any investigation of the Transactions and the Comcast-TWC Transaction simultaneously. In addition, Comcast shall promptly after the date of this agreement notify the FCC of the anticipated timing of the filing of the FCC applications and public interest statements in connection with the Transactions, and shall request that the FCC defer issuing a public notice regarding the FCC filings in connection with the Comcast-TWC Transaction (“Comcast-TWC Public Notice”) until the FCC applications and public interest statements in connection with the Transactions have been filed. If the FCC has issued the Comcast-TWC Public Notice before this agreement is executed, Comcast agrees upon execution to immediately request that the FCC establish common comment cycles for both transactions with similar due dates. Comcast shall also promptly provide to Charter copies of all LFA filings that have been made with respect to the Comcast-TWC Transaction and relate to cable systems subject to the Transactions.

Further Assurances	Other than with respect to regulatory matters (which are addressed under “Regulatory Matters” above), the parties agree to use their reasonable best efforts to take all actions and do all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the Transactions and not to take any actions or do any things that have a primary purpose of materially delaying, impeding or otherwise interfering with consummation of the Transactions.

Intended Tax Treatment	The Contribution and the Spin-Off are intended to be treated as a tax free reorganization within the meaning of Code Section 368(a)(1)(D) and a tax-free distribution within the meaning of Code Section 355.

	The Debt-for-Debt Exchange is intended to be treated as a tax free exchange within the meaning of Code Section 355 and Code Section 361.



	The Merger and the Charter Reorganization, taken together, are intended to be treated as a tax-free transaction described in Code Section 351.

	The Swap is intended to be treated as an exchange of property to which Code Section 1031 applies.

	The foregoing being referred to as the “Intended Tax Treatment.”

Employees	Charter will comply with Comcast's obligations with respect to the treatment of, and compensation and benefits provided to, former TWC employees who become Charter employees pursuant to the Swap or the Taxable Purchase to the extent contemplated by Section 7.09 of the Comcast-TWC merger agreement and applicable law (generally for one year following the Comcast-TWC Transaction). Comcast will also treat (and Charter and Comcast will use reasonable best efforts to cause SpinCo to agree to treat), and will provide compensation and benefits to (and Charter and Comcast will use reasonable best efforts to cause SpinCo to agree to provide compensation and benefits to), former employees of Charter and Comcast who become employees of another party (including SpinCo) in the Spin-Off or Swap, as applicable, to the same extent of the foregoing (generally for one year following the closing of the Spin-Off and Swap, as applicable). For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing obligations shall exclude and take no account of equity and equity-based compensation.

Transition and Support and Commercial Ar-rangements	The parties shall agree reasonably and in good faith on any transition services, ongoing back-office support or other arrangements necessary to facilitate the continued operation of the business of the applicable assets being acquired by SpinCo, Comcast and New Charter (the “Transition Services”). Accordingly, the parties shall work together in good faith (a) to identify assets that are not SpinCo Assets, Retained Assets, Comcast Swapped Assets, Charter Swapped Assets or Taxable Purchase Assets (together, the “Transaction Assets”), but that are used in the conduct of the business involving such Transaction Assets and (b) to mutually identify and structure the Transition Services. From and after the closing, each party shall provide any Transition Services to the other party or SpinCo, or SpinCo shall provide any Transition Services to Comcast, as applicable, at actual, incremental cost without overhead allocations, in a manner consistent with the manner provided prior to the Closing.

	The parties agree that in the event there are contractual or legal restrictions on the provision of services, the parties shall work in good faith to structure alternative arrangements on substantially similar terms. The parties also agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no party shall be required to transfer any Transaction Assets if such attempted transfer would be restricted by contractual or legal limitations,



	in which case the parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain third party consents, waivers or amendments necessary or advisable to complete any transfer of Transaction Assets or, failing that, to structure alternative arrangements reasonably acceptable to the parties.

	For the avoidance of doubt, the parties shall cooperate to design and implement a plan with respect to the employees of the transferred systems, which may include a leasing or transfer arrangement, so as to avoid disruption, collective-bargaining issues, severance costs or the incurrence of liabilities relating to such employees, consistent with achieving the overall commercial objectives of the Transactions.

	The parties shall cooperate to evaluate all potential synergies and to work in good faith to maximize realization of identified potential synergies available in the Transactions.

	Neither Charter nor Comcast will, nor will they permit any of their controlled subsidiaries (after giving effect to the Transactions) to, exercise any right of termination that may result from the consummation of the Transactions under any RSN Carriage Agreement. If any RSN Carriage Agreement that, prior to the Closing, was an intercompany agreement between Comcast entities, TWC entities or Charter entities, provides for termination or non-renewal without cause at any time during the one year following the Closing, then such right shall instead be deemed to be exercisable no earlier than on the first anniversary of the Closing and the agreement shall otherwise be construed accordingly.

	“RSN Carriage Agreement” means any carriage agreement with respect to an RSN, between (after giving effect to the Transactions) (i) Comcast or any of its controlled subsidiaries (including any business included in the Retained Assets or the Charter Swapped Assets) and (ii) Charter or any of its controlled subsidiaries (including any business included in the SpinCo Assets, the Comcast Swapped Assets or the Taxable Purchase Assets).

	For the avoidance of doubt, the treatment of the Charter/NBCU affiliate agreement shall be governed by the terms of “NBCU Affiliate Agreement” below and not by this section.

	Other than as expressly contemplated by this Agreement, all Intercompany Agreements shall be terminated as of the Closing. “Intercompany Agreements” means all agreements or arrangements between (i) Comcast (other than any Transaction Assets) and the Retained Assets, on the one hand, and the SpinCo Assets, the Comcast Swapped Assets or the Taxable Purchase Assets, on the other hand, and (ii) Charter (other than any Transaction Assets), on the one hand, and the Charter Swapped Assets,



	on the other hand.

Expenses	Except as set forth on Schedule 1, each party will be responsible for its own expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation, execution and performance of this agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, except as set forth on Schedule 1, Charter shall be responsible for all its financing and advisory costs and Comcast shall be responsible for all costs relating to the Comcast-TWC Transaction and all Comcast deal expenses. All SpinCo expenses (including financing costs) will be borne in the manner provided on Schedule 1. Any SpinCo deal expenses that are liabilities of SpinCo as of the Closing shall be excluded from the calculation of working capital for SpinCo.

Transfer Taxes	Transfer taxes incurred in connection with the Transactions shall be allocated among the parties as follows:

	● with respect to the Contribution and Spin-Off, SpinCo shall be liable for 100% of any transfer taxes;

	● with respect to the Taxable Purchase, Comcast and Charter shall each be liable for 50% of any transfer taxes; and

	● with respect to the Swap, Comcast shall be liable for any transfer taxes incurred on the transfer of the Comcast Swapped Assets and Charter shall be liable for any transfer taxes incurred on the transfer of the Charter Swapped Assets.

Antidilution Right	After the second anniversary of Closing, as an antidilution protection New Charter shall have proportional preemptive rights on any future issuance of SpinCo stock or other equity (or options or other rights to purchase equity, or securities or other instruments convertible into equity) in order to receive shares in addition to those issued to other parties sufficient to maintain New Charter’s proportionate ownership at such time, other than issuances in respect of bona fide employment/ compensation plans approved by the SpinCo board. The preemptive rights set forth in this section shall terminate and be of no further force and effect in the event New Charter and its controlled affiliates cease to beneficially own in excess of 5% of the then-outstanding shares of SpinCo at any time.

Terms Used in This Agreement	When used in this agreement, the term “Carveout 2014 EBITDA” (or any defined term incorporating “Carveout 2014 EBITDA”) shall reflect the following:

	Carveout 2014 EBITDA shall be calculated to include all of the revenue and direct and fully allocated indirect costs of Comcast, TWC or Charter currently associated with the respective transferred systems (but shall not



	include costs related to share-based compensation). Indirect costs shall include all shared service costs, regional management and corporate overhead such that all expenses included in each company's “EBITDA” for external reporting purposes shall be fully allocated across the respective company's footprint. With respect to any shared service center, regional and corporate overheads (and similar categories), the overheads of each company will be allocated pro-rata based on video customer relationships at the last quarter end prior to closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that, with respect to Comcast Corporation overhead (outside of Comcast Cable costs, which for the avoidance of doubt should be fully allocated as previously described), $22 million of overhead shall be allocated to the SpinCo Assets. In addition, solely for purposes of calculating the consideration payable in the Taxable Purchase, Carveout 2014 EBITDA of the Taxable Purchase Systems shall be reduced by $22 million. For the avoidance of doubt, Carveout 2014 EBITDA shall be calculated on an as-is basis and not reflecting any planned changes to cost structure, including the payment of the Services Fee.

	All calculations of Carveout 2014 EBITDA will be made:

	(i) in the case of a Closing in 2014, based on a mutually agreed determination of LTM EBITDA,

	(ii) in the case of a Closing in 2015, based on a mutually agreed determination of 2014 EBITDA, and

	(iii) in any case (other than a Closing on the basis of audited SpinCo financial statements for fiscal year 2014), subject to post closing audit (in the case of a Closing in 2015) or special report by SpinCo’s auditors (in the case of a Closing in 2014) and adjustment, on the basis of consistency with GAAP and prior periods with consistent application (except to the extent this agreement requires any other method of calculation (e.g., allocation of Comcast Corporation overhead)).

Governing Law; Jurisdiction	Delaware law, without regard to the conflicts of law rules of such state.

	The parties hereto agree that any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this agreement or the Transactions contemplated hereby (whether brought by any party or any of its affiliates or against any party or any of its affiliates) shall be brought in the Delaware Chancery Court or, if such court shall not have jurisdiction, any federal court located in the State of Delaware or other Delaware state court, and each of the parties hereby irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of



	the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each party agrees that service of process on such party as provided pursuant to “Notices” below shall be deemed effective service of process on such party.

Definitive Agree-ment	Charter and Comcast agree and acknowledge that this agreement contains all the material terms necessary to the Transactions and that this agreement constitutes a legally binding agreement of Charter and Comcast to enter into, and consummate, the Transactions contemplated by this agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

	Each of Charter and Comcast shall use its reasonable best efforts to negotiate and enter into (and cause SpinCo to enter into) more detailed agreements with respect to the Transactions on the terms and conditions set forth in this agreement (collectively, the “Long-Form Agreements”) as promptly as reasonably practicable; provided, that unless and until the Long-Form Agreements are executed, Charter and Comcast shall continue to be bound to complete the Transactions in accordance with the terms and conditions herein provided. If Charter and Comcast have not entered into the Long-Form Agreements by the date that is 120 days after the date of this agreement, then Charter and Comcast shall submit (and, if either Charter or Comcast fails to join such submission, the other may independently submit) any remaining unresolved or otherwise undecided terms of the proposed Long-Form Agreements for decision and final resolution to binding arbitration to the exclusion of any courts of law, with such arbitration conducted by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with the then most current version of its commercial arbitration rules and otherwise in accordance with Annex C. The foregoing shall not prejudice any right of a party to seek an order compelling arbitration.

Meeting of Charter Shareholders; Charter Board Rec-ommendation	Charter shall cause a meeting of Charter shareholders (the “Charter Shareholder Meeting”) to be held for purposes of obtaining the requisite vote of Charter shareholders (the “Charter Shareholder Vote”) as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Pro-Forma Financial Statements are available. The Charter board shall recommend that Charter shareholders approve the requisite vote, provided that, in their sole determination, the Charter board may change their recommendation with respect to the requisite vote if the board determines in good faith, after



	consultation with its outside legal counsel, that failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable law; provided, however, that no change in recommendation by the Charter board shall affect Charter’s obligations to hold the meeting of Charter shareholders for the purpose of obtaining the requisite vote.

SEC Filings	Each party shall afford the other party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon any registration statement, proxy statement or other document filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in connection with the Transactions (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not the Comcast-TWC Transaction) (collectively, the “SEC Filings”), and shall consider any comments of the other party thereon. Neither party shall include any information in any such filing with respect to the other party without the prior written consent of the other party (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Each party shall promptly provide the other party with any comments, whether written or oral, that such party receives from the SEC or its staff with respect to any SEC Filings.

	Each party agrees that the information contained in such party’s SEC Filings (other than information provided by the other party for use in such SEC Filings) and the information provided by such party for use in the other party’s SEC Filings shall be true and correct in all material respects and shall comply in all material respects with the provisions of applicable federal securities laws. Each party agrees to indemnify the other for any damage, loss, liability and expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in connection with any action, suit or proceeding) resulting from such information being inaccurate, incomplete or misleading.

	Each party agrees promptly (x) to correct any information contained in its SEC Filings (other than any information provided by the other party for use in such SEC Filings) or provided by it for use in the other party’s SEC Filings if and to the extent that such information shall have become false and misleading in any material respect and (y) to supplement any such information to include any information that shall become necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Press Releases; Public Communi-cations	The execution of this agreement shall be announced pursuant to a joint press release to be in the form agreed by the parties. Each party shall consult with the other party before issuing or making any press release or other public statement (whether written or oral), including any soliciting material, with respect to the Transactions that contains information regarding the Transactions or the other party that is in addition to, or inconsistent with, information contained in public statements previously made, or consented to, by such other party and shall give good faith con-



	sideration to any comments proposed by the other party, and will not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without such consultation, except as may be required by applicable law, court process or the rules or regulations of any national securities exchange.

Litigation	Each party will (a) give the other party prompt notice of the assertion of any claim or the commencement of any suit, action or proceeding involving the notifying party and arising as a result of, or in connection with, the negotiation, execution or performance of this agreement, the Long-Form Agreements or the consummation of the Transactions (“Action”), (b) keep the other party reasonably informed of all significant developments relating to any Action and (c) consult and cooperate with the other party in good faith with regard to the management, prosecution, defense, compromise and settlement of the Action. No party shall settle, agree to any undertakings or approve or otherwise agree to any waiver that may be sought in connection with any Action, to the extent such settlement, undertaking, approval or waiver modifies this agreement or the Long-Form Agreements, impedes or materially delays the consummation of the Transactions, or adversely affects the SpinCo Assets, the Comcast Swap Systems, the Charter Swap Systems or the Taxable Purchase Systems, without the prior written consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL	EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Binding Effect; Benefit	The provisions of this agreement will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No provision of this agreement is intended to confer any rights, benefits, remedies, obligations or liabilities hereunder upon any person other than the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this agreement without the consent of the other party.

Entire Agreement	This agreement (including the annexes and schedules) constitutes the entire agreement between Charter and Comcast with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between Charter and Comcast with respect to the subject matter hereof.

For the avoidance of doubt, the President shall serve as the Chief Executive Officer of SpinCo, and the SpinCo Board may determine that certain of the other senior executive functions described in the prior sentence may be combined with the responsibilities of another officer, such determination to be reasonable and consistent with customary practices of public companies in a business similar to the business of SpinCo.

ANNEX B: STEP-UP ANNEX

* Payments under this annex to be calculated on an iterative basis *

Charter shall pay to Comcast:

(A) Annually, upon filing its tax return for each of the first eight taxable years (or portions thereof) ending following the closing, the amount of the Tax Benefit in such taxable year; and

(B) Upon filing its tax return for the eighth taxable year following the closing (the “Final Year”), the present value, using the Discount Rate, of the Tax Benefit for each subsequent taxable year of Charter (until the year in which the Tax Benefit equals zero) using the Valuation Assumption.

“Tax Benefit” shall mean, for a taxable year, the reduction in the liability for federal and state income taxes of Charter resulting from the amortization and depreciation deductions, or , during the period described in clause (A) above, reduction of taxable gain, attributable to the Basis Step Up, calculated on a with and without basis.

“Basis Step Up” shall mean the amount of gain recognized by Comcast in the Taxable Purchase (other than in respect of any interest in an entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes), increased by the amounts paid pursuant to (A) and the amount to be paid pursuant to (B) above, provided that the Basis Step Up shall be determined in a manner consistent with the Final Allocation.

“Discount Rate” shall mean 10.00%.

“Valuation Assumption” shall mean the assumption that (i) in the Final Year, Charter has generated an amount of taxable income that is sufficient to use any net operating losses resulting in the first eight taxable years from amortization and depreciation deductions attributable to the Basis Step Up but not giving rise to a payment for a Tax Benefit and (ii) in each taxable year following the Final Year, Charter will generate an amount of taxable income that is sufficient to use any amortization and depreciation deductions attributable to any remaining Basis Step Up.

ANNEX C: ARBITRATION ANNEX

The arbitration tribunal will be composed of three disinterested arbitrators, appointed pursuant to the following procedure: within 5 days of submission of the unresolved controversy to arbitration, each party will notify the other party of its arbitrator. If either party fails to notify the other party of its arbitrator within such 5-day period, appointment of such party’s arbitrator will be made by the American Arbitration Association upon request of such other party. The arbitrators so appointed will choose a third arbitrator, who will serve as president of the tribunal thus composed. If the arbitrators fail to agree upon the choice of a third arbitrator within 5 days from the appointment of the second arbitrator, the third arbitrator will be appointed by the American Arbitration Association upon the request of the arbitrators or either of the parties. Each arbitrator will be selected from the American Arbitration Association’s National Roster, will possess relevant expertise and will be independent of, and have no material relationship with, either party.

In connection with any arbitration proceeding, each party will submit in writing to the arbitrators (with a copy simultaneously delivered to the other party) no later than 10 days after appointment of the third arbitrator, or such later date to which the parties agree in writing, its proposed resolution of the unresolved controversy, together with an explanation supporting its proposal. If the arbitrators determine that additional information is necessary, they will, by written notice to both parties, request such information from one or both parties and establish a reasonable time period (not to exceed 10 days) for the submission of such information (and each party requested to provide information will deliver such information and any associated response to the arbitrators and the other party at the same time). The arbitrators will also have the right to request that the parties make oral presentations regarding the unresolved controversy, in which case each party will be afforded a full and equal opportunity to be heard.

7.	○ The launch date of the Debt Tender will be agreed by the parties, taking into account market conditions and customary holidays and blackout periods. At launch, except as otherwise agreed by the parties in good faith, the tender price will be equal to the lesser of the estimated Clearing Tender Price and the estimated Maximum Tender Price.

Comcast and Charter (or the third bank) will then calculate, for each Maturity Range, the percentage change from the weighted average of the Initial Reference Credit Spreads in such Maturity Range to the



	Event	Financing Expenses
	weighted average of the Initial Reference Credit Spreads in such Maturity Range to the weighted average of the Launch Reference Credit Spreads in such Maturity Range. These percentage changes will then be applied to the Initial Comcast Credit Spread for each series of Comcast notes in the applicable Maturity Range to determine (based on the adjusted credit spread and the yield to maturity of the applicable U.S. Treasury obligation as of the day before the launch of the Debt Tender) the Adjusted Market Value for such series of Comcast notes. ○ The “Reference Index” means an index agreed by the parties, for each Maturity Range. ○ The “Initial Comcast Credit Spreads” means the trailing 30-calendar day average credit spread (calculated as the difference between the yield to maturity of the applicable bond and the yield to maturity of the appropriate U.S. Treasury obligation, and based on the last institutional size trade, defined as $1,000,000 or more, as seen on the TRACE system at the end of each trading day on which such a trade exists, but excluding accrued and unpaid interest) as of April 17, 2014 for each series of Comcast bonds. ○ The “Initial Reference Credit Spreads” means the trailing 30-calendar day average credit spread for the Reference Index as of April 17, 2014 for each of the Maturity Ranges. ○ The “Launch Reference Credit Spreads” means the trailing 30-calendar day average credit spread for the Reference Index as of the day before the launch of the Debt Tender for each of the Maturity Ranges. ○ The “Maturity Ranges” mean maturity of (i) up to and including 2019, (ii) 2020 through 2024, and (iii) after 2024.

16.	● On the fifth day following the settlement of the tender, SpinCo notes will be priced in the market on a best-efforts basis (unless the parties otherwise agree), in a principal amount (less original issue discount, if any) equal to the value of Comcast notes tendered in the Debt Tender (equal to the price at which Comcast notes will be purchased from the banks pursuant to the exchange agreement plus certain SpinCo Financing Expenses), and Comcast will enter into the exchange agreement (and the terms and price of the exchange will be fixed), with completion of the exchange conditioned upon the completion of the Transactions and completion of the Transactions conditioned upon completion of the exchange. On the 14^th day, the priced SpinCo notes will be issued and the debt-for-debt exchange will be settled.	● If the Transactions are consummated, the SpinCo Financing Expenses will be borne by SpinCo, and the Comcast Percentage of any SpinCo Financing Expenses previously incurred by Comcast will be reimbursed to Comcast by SpinCo. ● With respect to any SpinCo Financing Expenses for which SpinCo reimburses Comcast, SpinCo will distribute to Comcast up to an amount less than the estimated SpinCo basis (in each case, as determined by Comcast), and thereafter Charter will increase the Merger Consideration in the manner contemplated in the agreement under



	Event	Financing Expenses
		"Transaction Steps".
		● To the extent cancellation of indebtedness income (i) is known only after the Spin-Off or (ii) is known at the time of the Spin-Off and Comcast so elects, Charter will pay to Comcast in cash the SpinCo Percentage of any tax costs to Comcast for cancellation of indebtedness income arising from the Debt-for-Debt Exchange. To the extent cancellation of indebtedness income is known at the time of the Spin-Off and Comcast does not elect to have such tax costs paid in cash, such tax costs will be treated as SpinCo Financing Expenses.
17.	● SpinCo will also enter into term loans (“Term Loans”) for an amount approximately equal to excess SpinCo basis and a revolving credit facility in an amount equal to $750,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by the parties).
18.	● If the Resulting SpinCo Leverage is less than 5.0x, then if Comcast and Charter agree, they shall cause SpinCo to do one or more of the following: ○ borrow funds and distribute cash up to excess SpinCo basis (if any) to Comcast; ○ borrow funds and distribute cash up to E&P to SpinCo shareholders; ○ distribute SpinCo Securities to Comcast shareholders up to Comcast E&P; or ○ distribute excess cash to Comcast. in each case, in a manner that would not cause aggregate SpinCo Indebtedness to exceed 5.0x SpinCo EBITDA. ● Expenses incurred in connection with the above options will constitute SpinCo Financing Expenses. ● If Comcast and Charter do not elect one or more of the above options in an amount that would cause Resulting SpinCo Leverage to equal 5.0x SpinCo EBITDA, Charter will increase the Merger Consideration as contemplated by the Agreement.	● If the Transactions are terminated as a result of (1) a party’s breach, (2) a “Material Adverse Effect” on a party or (3) a party’s refusal to accept a Charter/Comcast Burdensome Condition, then that party is responsible for SpinCo Financing Expenses incurred prior to termination. ● If the Transactions are terminated because Charter shareholders do not approve the transactions, then Charter is responsible for SpinCo Financing Expenses incurred prior to termination; ● If the Transactions are terminated because the Comcast-TWC transaction is not completed, then Comcast is responsible for SpinCo Financing Expenses incurred prior to termination.

CHTR 4.25.14 8K Exhibit 99.1

Filed by Charter Communications Inc.

Pursuant to Rule 425 under the Securities Act of 1933

and deemed filed pursuant to Rule 14a-12 under the Securities Exchange

Act of 1934

Subject Company: Charter Communications Inc.

Commission File No. 001-33664

Exhibit 99.1

Comcast and Charter Reach Agreement on Divestitures

Comcast to Divest 3.9 Million Customers of Merged Comcast - Time Warner Cable

Charter to Enhance Scale and Improve Geographic Footprint

Divestiture will be Executed through Three Separate Transactions, Including the Creation of a New, Independent, Publicly-Traded Cable Provider

Philadelphia and Stamford - April 28, 2014 - Comcast Corporation (Nasdaq: CMCSA, CMCSK) and Charter Communications (Nasdaq: CHTR) today announced that the companies have reached an agreement (the “Agreement”) on a series of tax-efficient transactions, whereby the combined Comcast-Time Warner Cable entity, following completion of Comcast’s previously announced merger with Time Warner Cable, will divest systems resulting in a net reduction of approximately 3.9 million video customers. The divestiture follows through on Comcast’s willingness to reduce its post-merger managed subscriber total to less than 30 percent of total national MVPD subscribers, while maintaining the compelling strategic and financial rationale of its proposed merger with Time Warner Cable.

Pursuant to the Agreement, and following the close of the Comcast-Time Warner Cable merger, Charter will acquire approximately 1.4 million existing Time Warner Cable subscribers, increasing Charter’s current residential and commercial video customer base from 4.4 million to approximately 5.7 million, and making Charter the second largest cable operator in the United States.¹Charter and Comcast will also each transfer approximately 1.6 million customers respectively. In addition, Charter, through a tax free reorganization, will form a new holding company (New Charter) that will own 100% of Charter, and acquire an approximate 33 percent stake in a new publicly-traded cable provider to be spun-off by Comcast serving approximately 2.5 million customers (“SpinCo”). Charter will provide management services to SpinCo. In aggregate, today’s announced transactions will significantly enhance Charter’s scale and improve both companies geographic footprint, driving operational efficiencies for Comcast, Charter and SpinCo.

The Agreement has been approved by the Boards of Directors of both companies and Time Warner Cable’s Board has consented to the Agreement as required under the Comcast-Time Warner Cable merger agreement.

¹ Charter customer count is based on its reporting methodologies; net additions and SpinCo on respective TWC and Comcast reporting methodologies, where there may be small definitional differences. Totals may not recalculate due to rounding.

The Agreement will be executed via three separate transactions, which are subject to the completion of the proposed Comcast-Time Warner Cable merger:

1. Comcast will divest Time Warner Cable systems serving approximately 1.4 million existing Time Warner Cable customers directly to Charter for cash. Charter expects to fund the purchase with proceeds from debt, and to have approximately a 5 times debt to EBITDA leverage ratio at closing.

2. Comcast and Charter will transfer assets serving approximately 1.6 million existing Time Warner Cable customers and 1.6 million Charter customers in a tax-efficient like kind exchange, improving the geographic presence of both companies, leading to greater operational efficiencies, improved technology deployment and enhanced customer service.

3. Comcast will form and spin off to its shareholders a new, independent, publicly-traded company that will operate systems serving approximately 2.5 million existing Comcast customers. Comcast shareholders, including the former Time Warner Cable shareholders, are expected to own approximately 67 percent of SpinCo, while New Charter is expected to directly own approximately 33 percent of SpinCo. SpinCo expects to incur leverage of approximately 5 times estimated pro-forma EBITDA, and New Charter will then acquire its interest in SpinCo by issuing New Charter stock to Comcast shareholders (including former Time Warner Cable shareholders). SpinCo’s nine-member Board of Directors will include six independent directors and three directors designated by Charter. Comcast will hold no ownership interest in SpinCo (or Charter) and will have no role in managing SpinCo.

The transfer of systems, asset purchase and SpinCo acquisition will be valued at a 7.125 times 2014 EBITDA multiple (as defined by the parties), and Charter will make additional payments to Comcast over time as tax benefits from the asset sale are realized.

As a result of these transactions, following the completion of the merger between Comcast and Time Warner Cable, Comcast’s managed residential subscribers will be below 30 percent of the total MVPD subscribers in the United States, and approximately the same market share as Comcast’s subscriber base after its completion of both the 2002 AT&T Broadband transaction and the 2006 Adelphia transaction - and Charter’s subscriber base will increase by 1.4 million to a total of 5.7 million.

Comcast has reaffirmed that, after taking into account the transactions with Charter, it continues to expect its merger with Time Warner Cable to generate approximately $1.5 billion in operating efficiencies. Comcast shareholders will receive meaningful value with shares in New Charter, as well as new shares in SpinCo. In addition, Comcast intends to use proceeds from these transactions to reduce its debt in a leverage-neutral manner and expand its share buyback program.

“Today’s Agreement follows through on our willingness to divest subscribers, while also marking an important step in our merger with Time Warner Cable,” said Brian Roberts, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Comcast Corporation. “These transactions enable us to deliver meaningful value to our shareholders. The realignment of key cable markets achieved in these transactions will enable Comcast to fill in our footprint and deliver operational efficiencies and technology improvements. We look forward to working with the management teams at Time Warner Cable, Charter and the new entity to close these transactions and ensure a smooth transition for the customers and employees of all companies.”

“Charter’s new customers will benefit from our philosophy of providing highly valued products, featuring enhanced on-demand, interactive video and increased broadband speeds, all in a simplified package designed to provide better value and service,” said Tom Rutledge, President and Chief Executive Officer of Charter Communications. “The transactions announced today will provide Charter with greater scale, growth opportunities and improved geographical rationalization of our cable systems, which in turn will drive value for shareholders and more effective customer service. And through our meaningful ownership in and board representation at SpinCo, we can help it achieve similar market share growth in the markets it serves.”

The transactions are subject to a number of conditions, including the closing of the Comcast-Time Warner Cable merger, receipt of Hart-Scott-Rodino, FCC and other required regulatory approvals, Charter shareholder approval, and various other matters.

J.P. Morgan and Paul J. Taubman acted as financial advisors to Comcast and Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP and Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP are its legal advisors.

Goldman Sachs and LionTree Advisors are serving as lead financial advisors to Charter in connection with this transaction. Guggenheim Securities is also a financial advisor to Charter. BofA Merrill Lynch, Credit Suisse, and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. are also financial advisors to Charter, and together with Goldman Sachs, are leading the financing for the transaction. The law firms Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz and Kirkland & Ellis LLP are also representing Charter.

Q&A

CHTR 4.25.14 8K Exhibit 99.3

Filed by Charter Communications Inc.

Pursuant to Rule 425 under the Securities Act of 1933

Act of 1934

Subject Company: Charter Communications Inc.

Commission File No. 001-33664

Exhibit 99.3

Dear Colleagues:

This morning the Company announced it reached an agreement with Comcast that will transform Charter and, I think benefit the entire Cable industry. At the close of the transaction, Charter will have a greater concentration of operations in fewer states, improving our footprint and enabling us to better compete with the satellite and phone companies. By concentrating the markets in which we operate, we can more effectively market our products and services to non-customers and more efficiently provide great service to our customers. This transaction will result in Charter owning or managing approximately 8 million video customers. This is a complicated deal that includes three separate parts.


•	Charter will acquire 1.4 million subscribers in markets that complement our current footprint.


•	Charter will also acquire a 33% stake in a newly formed cable company that will have 2.5 million subscribers. Charter will provide operational services to “SpinCo.”


•	Charter and Comcast have agreed to swap approximately 1.6 million subscribers. These swaps will enhance the operating effectiveness of Charter, creating more logical geographic delineations.

This transaction is contingent on the closing of the Comcast/Time Warner Cable merger and necessary regulatory approvals which likely won’t happen before the end of this year. Over the next several weeks we will communicate more on specific impacts of the transaction. We expect to provide you the ability to use our Intranet to ask questions about this transaction and the effect it may have on our company very soon. However, I am pleased that both we and Comcast have agreed to ensure that after the transaction, employees in the affected regions will be compensated in the same way as they are currently compensated.

We know that any change can be unsettling, particularly when not all questions can be immediately answered. We also realize that transactions such as these are distracting, but we have made tremendous progress as a Company over the past 18 months by remaining focused on our individual responsibilities and performing our jobs at a very high level. We must not lose that focus. This transaction will result in a much larger and better positioned Charter, especially as we continue our operating improvements, and successfully execute on better serving our customers.

Thank you for the hard work that you do every day and I look forward to an even brighter future for all of us.

Tom
