On December 18, 2020, Liberty Broadband Corporation (“Liberty Broadband”) completed its previously announced combination (the “Combination”) with the Issuer, which was effected by (i) a merger of Grizzly Merger Sub 2, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Grizzly Merger Sub 1, LLC (“Merger LLC”), with and into the Issuer (the “Merger”) with the Issuer surviving as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Broadband and (ii) the merger of the Issuer (as the surviving corporation in the Merger) with and into Merger LLC (the “Upstream Merger”), with Merger LLC surviving the Upstream Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Broadband. In accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as August 6, 2020, by and among Liberty Broadband, Merger LLC, Merger Sub and the Issuer, (i) each share of Series A common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of GCI Liberty (the “Series A Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) (except for shares held by GCI Liberty as treasury stock) was converted into the right to receive 0.580 of a share of Series C common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Liberty Broadband (the “LBRD Series C Common Stock”) (the “Series A Consideration”), (ii) each share of Series B common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of GCI Liberty (the “Series B Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (except for shares held by GCI Liberty as treasury stock and for shares of Series B Common Stock to which the holder thereof properly demands and does not withdraw its demand for or otherwise lose its right to, appraisal of such shares) was converted into the right to receive 0.580 of a share of Series B common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Liberty Broadband (the “LBRD Series B Common Stock”) (the “Series B Consideration” and, together with the Series A Consideration, the “Common Consideration”), and (iii) each share of Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (except for shares held by GCI Liberty as treasury stock) was converted into the right to receive one share of newly-issued Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Liberty Broadband (the “LBRD Preferred Stock”) (the “Preferred Consideration” and, together with the Common Consideration, the “Merger Consideration”). Prior to the consummation of the Merger, the Reporting Person beneficially owned approximately 6.6% of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock. No fractional shares of LBRD Series C Common Stock or LBRD Series B Common Stock were issued in the Combination.
