A tracking stock is a type of common stock that the issuing company intends to reflect or 鈥渢rack鈥 the economic performance of a particular business or 鈥済roup,鈥 rather than the economic performance of the company as a whole.

On July 18, 2023, the Company completed the split-off (the 鈥淪plit-Off鈥) of its wholly owned subsidiary, ABH. The Split-Off was accomplished by a redemption by the Company of each outstanding share of Liberty Braves common stock in exchange for one share of the corresponding series of ABH common stock. ABH is comprised of the businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to the Liberty Braves Group (the 鈥淏raves Group鈥) immediately prior to the Split-Off, except for the intergroup interests in the Braves Group attributed to the Liberty SiriusXM Group and the Liberty Formula One Group (the 鈥淔ormula One Group鈥), which were settled and extinguished in connection with the Split-Off.

On August 3, 2023, the Company reclassified its then-outstanding shares of common stock into three new tracking stocks 鈥 Liberty SiriusXM common stock, Liberty Formula One common stock and Liberty Live common stock, and, in connection therewith, provided for the attribution of the businesses, assets and liabilities of the Company鈥檚 remaining tracking stock groups among its newly created Liberty SiriusXM Group, Formula One Group and Liberty Live Group (the 鈥淩eclassification鈥). As a result of the Reclassification, each then-outstanding share of Liberty SiriusXM common stock was reclassified into one share of the corresponding series of new Liberty SiriusXM common stock and 0.2500 of a share of the corresponding series of Liberty Live common stock and each outstanding share of Liberty Formula One common stock was reclassified into one share of the corresponding series of new Liberty Formula One common stock and 0.0428 of a share of the corresponding series of Liberty Live common stock.

Each of the Split-Off and the Reclassification were intended to be tax-free to stockholders of the Company, except with respect to the receipt of cash in lieu of fractional shares. The Split-Off and the Reclassification are reflected in the Company鈥檚 consolidated financial statements on a prospective basis.

While the Liberty SiriusXM Group, the Formula One Group and the Liberty Live Group have separate collections of businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to them, no group is a separate legal entity and therefore cannot own assets, issue securities or enter into legally binding agreements. Holders of tracking stock have no direct claim to the group鈥檚 stock or assets and therefore, do not own, by virtue of their ownership of a Liberty tracking stock, any equity or voting interest in a public company, such as Sirius XM Holdings, in which Liberty holds an interest that is attributed to a Liberty tracking stock group, the Liberty SiriusXM Group. Holders of tracking stock are also not represented by separate boards of directors. Instead, holders of tracking stock are stockholders of the parent corporation, with a single board of directors and subject to all of the risks and liabilities of the parent corporation.

The Liberty SiriusXM common stock is intended to track and reflect the separate economic performance of the businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to the Liberty SiriusXM Group, which, as of December 31, 2023, include its interest in Sirius XM Holdings, corporate cash, Liberty鈥檚 3.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028, Liberty鈥檚 2.75% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2049 and a margin loan obligation incurred by a wholly-owned special purpose subsidiary of Liberty. As of December听31, 2023, the Liberty SiriusXM Group has cash and cash equivalents of approximately $306听million, which includes $216听million of subsidiary cash.

The Liberty Formula One common stock is intended to track and reflect the separate economic performance of the businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to the Formula One Group, which, as of December 31, 2023, include Liberty鈥檚 interest in Formula听1, cash and Liberty鈥檚 2.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027. As of December听31, 2023,

the Formula One Group has cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1,408听million, which includes $1,002听million of subsidiary cash.

The Liberty Live common stock is intended to track and reflect the separate economic performance of the businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to the Liberty Live Group. As of December 31, 2023, the Liberty Live Group is primarily comprised of Liberty鈥檚 interest in Live Nation, cash, certain public and private assets previously attributed to the Formula One Group, Liberty鈥檚 2.375% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2053, Liberty鈥檚 0.5% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2050 and a margin loan obligation incurred by a wholly-owned special purpose subsidiary of Liberty.

Prior to the Split-Off, the Liberty Braves common stock was intended to track and reflect the separate economic performance of the businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to the Braves Group. The Braves Group was primarily comprised of 听Braves Holdings, which indirectly owns the Atlanta Braves Major League Baseball Club (鈥淎NLBC鈥 or the 鈥淏raves鈥), certain assets and liabilities associated with the Braves鈥 stadium (the 鈥淪tadium鈥) and a mixed-use development around the Stadium that features retail, office, hotel and entertainment opportunities (the 鈥淢ixed-Use Development鈥) and corporate cash.

As of December 31, 2021, 6,792,903 notional shares representing an 11.0% intergroup interest in the Braves Group were held by the Formula One Group, 2,292,037 notional shares representing a 3.7% intergroup interest in the Braves Group were held by the Liberty SiriusXM Group and 5,271,475 notional shares representing a 2.2% intergroup interest in the Formula One Group were held by the Liberty SiriusXM Group.

During September 2022, the Formula One Group and the Braves Group paid approximately $64 million and $14 million, respectively, to the Liberty SiriusXM Group to settle a portion of the intergroup interests in the Formula One Group and Braves Group held by the Liberty SiriusXM Group, as a result of the repurchase of a portion of Liberty鈥檚 1.375% Cash Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 (the 鈥淐onvertible Notes鈥), as described in note 9. During March 2023, the Formula One Group paid approximately $202 million to the Liberty SiriusXM Group to settle a portion of the intergroup interest in the Formula One Group held by the Liberty SiriusXM Group, as a result of the repurchase of a portion of the Convertible Notes, as described in note 9. On July 12, 2023, the Formula One Group paid approximately $71 million to the Liberty SiriusXM Group to settle and extinguish the remaining intergroup interest in the Formula One Group held by the Liberty SiriusXM Group.

In connection with the Split-Off, the intergroup interests in the Braves Group attributed to the Liberty SiriusXM Group and Formula One Group were settled and extinguished through the attribution, to the respective tracking stock group, of ABH Series C common stock on a one-for-one basis equal to the number of notional shares representing the intergroup interest. On July 19, 2023, the shares of ABH Series C common stock attributed to the Formula One Group to settle and extinguish the intergroup interest in connection with the Split-Off were distributed on a pro rata basis to holders of Liberty Formula One common stock (the 鈥淔ormula One Distribution鈥). During November 2023, Liberty exchanged the shares of ABH Series C common stock attributed to the Liberty SiriusXM Group with a third party to satisfy certain debt obligations attributed to the Liberty SiriusXM Group. 听

On December 11, 2023, Liberty entered into definitive agreements, subject to the terms thereof, to redeem each outstanding share of its Liberty SiriusXM common stock in exchange for a number of shares of common stock of a newly formed entity (the 鈥淟iberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off鈥), Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Inc. (鈥淟iberty Sirius XM Holdings鈥) equal to the Exchange Ratio (as defined in the Reorganization Agreement, dated as of December 11, 2023, by and among Liberty, Liberty Sirius XM Holdings and Sirius XM Holdings (the 鈥淩eorganization Agreement鈥)). The Exchange Ratio will be calculated prior to the effective time of the redemption and is estimated to be approximately 8.4 shares of Liberty Sirius XM Holdings common stock. Liberty Sirius XM Holdings will be comprised of the businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to the Liberty SiriusXM Group. The Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off is intended to

be tax-free to holders of Liberty SiriusXM common stock (except with respect to cash received in lieu of fractional shares) and the completion of the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off will be subject to various conditions, including the receipt of opinions of tax counsel. On December 11, 2023, Liberty also entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into Sirius XM Holdings, with Sirius XM Holdings surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Sirius XM Holdings (the 鈥淢erger鈥 and, together with the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off, the 鈥淭ransactions鈥), subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The Merger is dependent and conditioned on the approval and completion of the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off, and the Merger will not be completed unless the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off is completed. If the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off is completed, the Merger will also be completed. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions, the Company expects to complete the Transactions early in the third quarter of 2024.
