Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is made to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof, by and among Charter Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Fusion Merger Sub 1, LLC, a single member Delaware limited liability company and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger LLC”), Fusion Merger Sub 2, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Merger LLC, and Liberty Broadband Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) (as may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”). Capitalized terms used and not defined herein have the meanings provided to such terms in the Merger Agreement; and

WHEREAS, in connection with the transactions contemplated in the Merger Agreement, concurrently with the consummation of the GCI Divestiture, the Malone Group (as defined herein) shall exchange a sufficient number of shares of Company Series B Common Stock held by the Malone Group for Company Series C Common Stock (to the extent such number of shares is owned by members of the Malone Group) such that immediately following such exchange, no set of holders comprised of five or fewer individuals, estates or trusts will collectively own (within the meaning of Section 1563(d)(2) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)) more than nineteen percent (19%) of the voting power of the Company (the “Holder Condition” and such exchange, the “Exchange”).

WHEREAS, the Company, John C. Malone and John C. Malone 1995 Revocable Trust U/A DTD 3/6/1995, are parties to that certain Exchange Agreement dated as of June 13, 2022 (the “Exchange Agreement”), and such parties thereto desire to amend certain provisions thereof and memorialize certain waivers with respect thereto, in each case, in accordance with this letter agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

(a)            The Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to provide written notice to the Malone Group at least five (5) Business Days prior to the anticipated Exchange Closing (as defined below) (an “Exchange Notice”), specifying, to the extent practicable, (i) the timing of the GCI Divestiture, (ii) a reasonable estimate of the number of shares of Company Series B Common Stock that will need to be exchanged by the Malone Group for shares of Company Series C Common Stock in the Exchange not to exceed the number of shares of Company Series B Common Stock then held by the Malone Group (the “Exchange Number”) necessary to cause the Holder Condition to be satisfied and (iii) a reasonable estimate of the aggregate voting power of the Voting Securities (as defined in the Company Charter) of the Company with respect to which the Malone Group has beneficial ownership as a percentage of the voting power of all outstanding Voting Securities of the Company after giving effect to the Exchange.

(b)            Following the receipt of the Exchange Notice by the Malone Group, concurrent with the consummation of the GCI Divestiture, the Company and the Malone Group shall consummate the Exchange (the “Exchange Closing”) remotely by the exchange of signatures; provided, however, that the conditions set forth in Section 6 shall have been satisfied (or waived by the party entitled to the benefit thereof).

(c)            At the Exchange Closing, on the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this letter agreement: (i) the Malone Group shall convey, transfer and deliver to the Company the number of shares of Company Series B Common Stock beneficially owned by the Malone Group equal to the Exchange Number (with the Company determining, in consultation with the Malone Group and considering in good faith the Malone Group’s viewpoints with respect thereto, the specific members of the Malone Group that will convey, transfer and deliver such shares and the number of shares to be delivered by each such member in the Exchange), together with any certificates representing such shares of Company Series B Common Stock, free and clear of all Encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances (the “Company Series B Exchange Shares”); (ii) the Company shall issue and deliver to the applicable members of the Malone Group such number of shares of Company Series C Common Stock equal to the number of shares of the Company Series B Exchange Shares, which shall be issued in book-entry form, and such shares shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free and clear of all Encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances (the “Company Series C Exchange Shares” and together with the Company Series B Exchange Shares, the “Exchange Shares”), together with any certificates representing the number of shares of Company Series B Common Stock as shall be equal to the difference between the number of shares of Company Series B Common Stock represented by any certificates delivered pursuant to (i) above minus the number of shares of Company Series B Common Stock to be delivered in the Exchange, free and clear of all Encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances; and (iii) upon receipt of the transfers contemplated in clauses (i) and (ii), the Company and each member of the Malone Group transferring Company Series B Exchange Shares, respectively, shall deliver an executed cross receipt, acknowledging the receipt of shares transferred in the Exchange.

2.            Rescission. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Malone Group and the Company, upon the Merger Agreement being terminated in accordance with its terms without the Closing having occurred but following the Exchange Closing,

(a)            the Exchange will be automatically rescinded and treated as if neither the Exchange nor the Exchange Closing had ever occurred (the “Rescission”); provided, however, in the event that the Malone Group disposes of any of the Company Series C Exchange Shares prior to the Rescission, the Malone Group shall only be entitled to receive, in connection with the Rescission, such Company Series B Exchange Shares equal to the number of Company Series C Exchange Shares beneficially owned by the Malone Group at the time of the Rescission;

(b)            each of the Company and the Malone Group hereby waives all, and none of the Company or the Malone Group shall have any, rights, duties or obligations of any kind (other than rights, duties or obligations to effect the Rescission) in respect of the Exchange to receive or retain, (i) in the case of the Malone Group, following the Exchange Closing, any shares of Company Series C Common Stock issued or delivered in connection therewith (collectively, the “Malone Rescission Shares”), and, (ii) in the case of the Company, following the Exchange Closing, any shares of Company Series B Common Stock delivered in connection therewith (collectively, the “Company Rescission Shares”); and

(c)            each of the Company, on the one hand, and the Malone Group, on the other hand, will take such actions as are reasonably necessary to effect the Rescission, and each will be deemed, upon the effectiveness of the Rescission, to make appropriate representations and warranties to the other with respect to the valid issuance and conveyance, as applicable, and the lack of any Encumbrances upon the Malone Rescission Shares or the Company Rescission Shares (other than Permitted Encumbrances), as applicable, so as to vest in the other good and valid title to the Malone Rescission Shares or the Company Rescission Shares, as applicable.

(a)            Representations of the Malone Group. The Malone Group represents and warrants, severally and not jointly as to such member of the Malone Group only, to the Company that:
