These transactions were approved by the Issuer's board of directors pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Act.

Remarks
On December 29, 2017, the Issuer effected the split-off of its wholly owned subsidiary, Liberty Latin America Ltd. ("Splitco"), by distributing Splitco's common shares (the "distribution") to the holders of the Issuer's LiLAC Ordinary Shares. Immediately following the distribution, the LiLAC Ordinary Shares were redesignated as deferred shares (with virtually no economic rights) and those deferred shares were transferred for no consideration to a third-party designee (such transactions together with the distribution, the "Split-Off"). In the distribution, holders of LiLAC Ordinary Shares received one share of the same class of common shares of Splitco for each LiLAC Ordinary Share held by them at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on December 29, 2017. The trading symbols for the Issuer's classes of ordinary shares are LBTYA, LBTYB and LBTYK.
