The Company shall include in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus a solicitation relating to the approval, for purposes of Article Eighth of the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, of the issuance of the Purchased Shares to Purchaser (the “Stock Issuance Approval”) and, if the Company decides to do so, the approvals required by Sections 4.02(a) and 5.02(a) of the Mergers Agreement (the “Merger Approvals” and together with the Stock Issuance Approval, the “Stockholder Approvals”).

Prior to filing the Proxy Statement/Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, the Company shall provide Purchaser with reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such proposed filing solely with respect to the Stockholder Approval and any information relating to Purchaser, its Affiliates or any of its designees to the Board of Directors of the Company. If at any time prior to the Closing Date, any information should be discovered by any party hereto that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus so that the Proxy Statement/Prospectus would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties hereto and, to the extent required by applicable Law, an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed by the Company with the SEC and, to the extent required by applicable Law, disseminated by the Company to the stockholders of the Company.

Subject to the fiduciary duties of the Company’s directors under Delaware Law, as determined by a majority of the

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

Section 4.2 Reasonable Best Efforts.

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

(b) Each of Purchaser, New Charter and the Company will cooperate and consult with the other and use reasonable best efforts to prepare and file all necessary documentation, to effect all necessary applications, notices, petitions, filings and other documents, and to obtain all necessary permits, consents, orders, approvals and authorizations of, or any exemption by, all Governmental Entities, and expiration or termination of any applicable waiting periods, necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and to perform the covenants contemplated by this Agreement, it being agreed that each of the Company and Purchaser shall make or file any such applications, notices, petitions or filings required to be made by it with Governmental Entities in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable following the date of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding any covenants of the parties set forth herein, none of the parties hereto will be required to take any action requiring, or enter into any settlement, undertaking, condition, consent decree, stipulation or other agreement with any Governmental Entity that requires such party or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to (x) hold separate (in trust or otherwise), divest itself or otherwise rearrange the composition of any assets, businesses or interests of such party or any of its Affiliates or imposes any limitations on such person’s freedom of action with respect to future acquisitions of assets or with respect to any existing or future business or activities or on the enjoyment of the full rights of ownership, possession and use of any asset now owned or hereafter acquired by any such person (including any securities of Purchaser or of the Company and the voting and other rights related to ownership thereof), (y) agree to any other conditions or requirements or to take any other actions that are adverse or burdensome or would reasonably be expected to adversely affect such person, in order to satisfy

Each of Purchaser and the Company will have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable each will consult with the other, in each case subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, with respect to all the information relating to the other party, and any of their respective Affiliates, which appears in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party or any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Each party hereto agrees to keep the other party apprised of the status of matters relating to completion of the transactions contemplated hereby. Purchaser, New Charter and the Company shall promptly furnish each other, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, with copies of written communications received by them or their Affiliates from, or delivered by any of the foregoing to, any Governmental Entity in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

The party giving such notice shall give the other parties hereto the opportunity to participate in (but not control) the defense and settlement of any such Claims and such party agrees to use, and to cause its Affiliates, directors and officers to use, its commercially reasonable efforts to defend or contest any such Claim. The parties receiving such notice will cooperate with other party hereto in its defense of such Claims as it may reasonably request.

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

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

Section 4.4 Stockholders Agreement.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Section 4.8 Efforts to Enforce.

The Purchaser agrees not to terminate, nor to waive nor amend any provision of any such Investment Agreement which would delay or make less likely the consummation of the Investment contemplated hereby or thereby. The Purchaser further agrees not to exercise any right or election that would have the effect of reducing the amount of any investor’s commitment under any such Investment Agreement, unless (i) the Purchaser has obtained an alternative, debt or equity-linked form of financing in an equivalent amount or (ii) a commitment reduction is required by the terms of the applicable investment agreement.

Section 4.9 USRPHC. Each of New Charter and the Company will cooperate and consult with Purchaser in connection with the preparation of an analysis and methodology to determine whether the Company and/or New Charter is or will be a United States real property holding corporation, as defined in Section 897(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (a “USRPHC”) as of the Closing Date, including as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Mergers Agreement and the Bright House Transactions (as defined in the Mergers Agreement), or has any plan or intention to become a USRPHC.

ARTICLE VIII

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

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

(a) Demand Registration. The Registration Rights Agreement will provide that, any time following the Closing, Purchaser shall be entitled to request that New Charter use reasonable best efforts to register under the Securities Act the secondary offer and sale of its Common Stock (with New Charter’s full management cooperation available for two (2) road shows per twelve (12) month period (provided that the second road show shall be in connection with an offering of at least $500 million), to the extent advised by the underwriters, if applicable, and at New Charter’s expense, other than underwriters’ discounts) to the extent requested by Purchaser. These demand registration rights include the right to register shares underlying exchangeable notes or debentures issued in accordance with the Stockholders Agreement. New Charter shall not be required to effect more than two (2) demand registrations for Purchaser in any twelve (12) month period, and all registrations shall be subject to blackout and delay periods for so long as the Board of Directors (excluding any directors nominated by Purchaser) determines in good faith that registration could require the disclosure of something detrimental to New Charter or to a pending negotiation or transaction. The aggregate fair market value of any offering required to be registered would be not less than $500 million.

(b) Piggyback Registration. If New Charter proposes to register any offer and sale of Common Stock other than on a Form S-8 or Form S-4, Purchaser will have the right to request

that New Charter register under the Securities Act a pro rata portion of its Common Stock, subject to a minimum to be agreed, unless New Charter is advised by its financial advisors that the inclusion of the shares would adversely affect the offering, in which case shares to be sold by any other New Charter shareholders and Purchaser shall be offered on a pro rata basis to the extent of the size of the secondary offering proposed.

(c) Termination. The Registration Rights Agreement will terminate once Purchaser beneficially owns less than 5% equity ownership of New Charter.

(d) Registration Expenses. The Registration Rights Agreement shall contain customary provisions with respect to the reimbursement of expenses.
