As previously reported, on August 19, 2026, Charter Communications, Inc. (“Charter”) and its subsidiaries completed the transactions (the “Transaction”) contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, dated as of May 16, 2025, by and among Charter, Charter Communications Holdings, LLC and Cox Enterprises, Inc. (“Cox Enterprises”), pursuant to which Charter acquired the commercial fiber and managed IT and cloud services businesses of Cox Communications, LLC (formerly known as Cox Communications, Inc., “Cox Communications”) and Cox Enterprises contributed the residential cable business of Cox Communications to Charter Communications Operating, LLC (“CCO”). In connection with the closing of the Transaction, Charter and its subsidiaries entered into the following supplemental indentures to add certain subsidiaries of Cox Enterprises and Charter as additional guarantors and grant security interests in collateral.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of March 18, 1999, as amended and restated as of April 26, 2019 (as amended by Amendment No. 1, dated as of October 24, 2019, as further amended by Amendment No. 2, dated as of May 26, 2022, as further amended by Amendment No. 3, dated as of February 10, 2023, as further amended by Amendment No. 4, dated as of March 23, 2023, as further amended by Amendment No. 5, dated as of December 7, 2023, as further amended by Amendment No. 6, dated as of December 3, 2024, as further amended by Amendment No. 7, dated as of May 6, 2026 and as may be further amended, amended and restated, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Charter Credit Agreement”), by and among CCO Holdings, LLC, as holdings, CCO, as borrower, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A.
