ITEM 2.01. COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS. The information provided in the Introductory Note section of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference herein. Liberty Merger Agreement Pursuant to the Liberty Merger Agreement, on the Closing Date, (i) Merger Sub merged with and into Liberty (the “Merger”), with Liberty surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Merger LLC, and (ii) immediately following the Merger, Liberty (as the surviving corporation in the Merger) merged with and into Merger LLC (the “Upstream Merger,” and together with the Merger, the “Combination”), with Merger LLC surviving the Upstream Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Charter. Effective as of the effective time of the Merger (the “Liberty Effective Time”), each share of (i) Series A common stock, par value $0.01 per share, (ii) Series B common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and (iii) Series C common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Liberty (clauses (i)-(iii), collectively, the “Liberty Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Liberty Effective Time (except for certain shares held by Liberty or Charter or their respective wholly owned subsidiaries) was converted into the right to receive 0.236 of a share (the “Exchange Ratio”) of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Charter (the “Charter Class A Common Stock”). Each holder of shares of the Liberty Common Stock converted pursuant to the Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Charter Class A Common Stock (after taking into account all shares held by such holder) will instead receive cash (without interest) in lieu of such fractional share in accordance with the terms of the Liberty Merger Agreement (such cash and shares of Charter Class A Common Stock, the “Common Consideration”). Effective as of the Liberty Effective Time, each share of Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Liberty (the “Liberty Preferred Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Liberty Effective Time (except for shares held by Liberty, Charter or their respective wholly owned subsidiaries) was converted into the right to receive one share of Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Charter Preferred Stock”), of Charter (the “Preferred Consideration” and together with the Common Consideration, the “Merger Consideration”). Effective as of the Liberty Effective Time, each stock option with respect to shares of the Liberty Common Stock (the “Liberty Stock Options”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Liberty Effective Time was converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Charter Class A Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the quotient of (i) the product of (x) the excess, if any, of (A) the Exchange Ratio times the volume-weighted average price of the Charter Class A Common Stock for the five consecutive trading days ending two trading days prior to the Closing Date as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. (the “Closing Price” and the product in this clause (A), the “Merger Consideration Value”) over (B) the per share exercise price of such stock option multiplied by (y) the number of shares of the Liberty Common Stock subject to such stock option immediately prior to the Liberty Effective Time, divided by (ii) the Closing Price, less applicable tax withholdings. Because all Liberty Stock Options had an exercise price greater than the Merger Consideration Value, all Liberty Stock Options were canceled for no consideration. Effective as of August 10, 2026, each restricted stock unit award with respect to shares of the Liberty Common Stock outstanding as of such time, accelerated and fully vested (with applicable performance goals in respect of performance periods that were incomplete at such time, if any, deemed satisfied at 100% of target) and all shares of the Liberty Common Stock subject to such award, less applicable tax withholdings, that were outstanding as of the Liberty Effective Time were treated as outstanding shares of the Liberty Common Stock in the Merger and entitled to the Common Consideration. At the Liberty Effective Time, as a result of the transaction, Charter (i) retired approximately 38.6 million shares of Charter Class A Common Stock previously owned by Liberty and issued approximately 33.9 million shares of Charter Class A Common Stock to holders of Liberty Common Stock, resulting in a net decrease of approximately 4.7 million shares of Charter Class A Common Stock outstanding, and (ii) issued approximately 7.2 million shares of Charter Preferred Stock to holders of Liberty Preferred Stock. Cox Transaction Agreement Pursuant to the Cox Transaction Agreement, on the Closing Date, immediately following the Liberty Effective Time (the “Cox Effective Time”), (i) Cox Communications Equity Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and direct wholly owned subsidiary of Cox Parent (“Cox NewCo”), sold and transferred to a subsidiary of Charter 100% of the equity interests of certain subsidiaries of Cox Communications, LLC (f/k/a Cox Communications, Inc.) (“Cox”) that conduct Cox’s commercial fiber and managed IT and cloud services businesses (the “Equity Sale”), (ii) Cox NewCo contributed the equity interests of Cox (after its conversion into a limited liability company pursuant to a pre-closing restructuring) and certain other assets (other than certain excluded assets) primarily related to Cox’s residential cable business to Charter Holdings (the “Contribution”) and (iii) Cox NewCo contributed $1.00 to Charter (the transactions described in clauses (i)-(iii), the “Cox Transactions,” and the Cox Transactions together with the Combination, the “Transactions”). Additionally, approximately $12 billion of Cox debt and finance leases will remain outstanding at subsidiaries of Charter as a result of the transaction. At the Cox Effective Time, in consideration of the Equity Sale, Charter paid $3.5 billion in cash to Cox NewCo. In consideration of the Contribution, Charter Holdings (x) paid to Cox NewCo $724 million in cash and (y) issued to Cox NewCo 60.0 million convertible preferred units of Charter Holdings with an aggregate liquidation preference of $6.0 billion and 6.875% coupon (the “Charter Holdings Convertible Preferred Units”), and approximately 33.6 million common units of Charter Holdings (the “Charter Holdings Common Units”) priced at $353.64 (the “Reference Price”) per share. The Charter Holdings Convertible Preferred Units are convertible into Charter Holdings Common Units, with an initial conversion price of $477.41, a 35% premium to the Reference Price, subject to certain adjustments. The Charter Holdings Common Units are exchangeable by the holder, in certain circumstances, for cash or, at the election of Charter, Charter Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to certain adjustments. In consideration of the $1.00 contribution from Cox NewCo to Charter, Charter issued to Cox NewCo one share of a new class of common stock of Charter (the “Charter Class C Common Stock”). The Charter Class C Common Stock is economically equivalent to the Charter Class A Common Stock and the Class B common stock of Charter but has a number of votes per share that reflect the voting power of the Charter Holdings Common Units and the Charter Holdings Convertible Preferred Units held by Cox NewCo on an as-converted, as-exchanged basis. Ancillary Agreements At the Cox Effective Time, Charter and the other parties thereto, as applicable, also entered into various ancillary agreements, including, among others: the Third Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement (the “Amended Stockholders Agreement”), by and among Charter, Cox Parent, Cox NewCo, and Advance/Newhouse Partnership, a New York partnership (“A/N”), which amends and restates the Second Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement, dated as of May 23, 2015, by and among Charter, A/N and Liberty; ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── a letter agreement (the “Cox Letter Agreement”), by and among Charter, Charter Holdings and Cox Parent, regarding Cox Parent’s participation in share repurchases by Charter; a letter agreement (the “A/N Letter Agreement”), by and among Charter, Charter Holdings and A/N, regarding A/N’s participation in share repurchases by Charter; the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Charter Holdings (the “Amended LLC Agreement”), by and among Charter, Cox NewCo, A/N and the other parties thereto, which amends and restates the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Charter Holdings, dated as of May 18, 2016, by and among Charter, Charter Holdings, A/N and the other parties thereto; ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── the Amended and Restated Tax Receivables Agreement (the “Amended TRA”), by and among Charter, A/N, Cox NewCo and the other parties thereto, which amends and restates the Tax Receivables Agreement, dated as of May 18, 2016, by and among Charter, A/N and the other parties thereto; ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── the Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement (the “Amended Exchange Agreement”), by and among Charter, Cox Parent, Cox NewCo, A/N and the other parties thereto, which amends and restates the Exchange Agreement, dated as of May 18, 2016, by and among Charter, A/N and the other parties thereto; and ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, by and among Charter, Cox Parent, Cox NewCo and A/N (the “Amended RRA”), which amends and restates the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of May 18, 2016, by and among Charter, A/N, Liberty and the other parties thereto. ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── The Amended Stockholders Agreement provides, among other things, that on the Closing Date, the size of the board of directors of Charter (the “Board”) will be thirteen directors, the Liberty director designees will resign from the Board, A/N’s director designees will continue to serve on the Board and Cox Parent’s three designees will be appointed to the Board. From and after the Cox Effective Time, each of Cox Parent and A/N are entitled to designate up to three nominees to be elected to the Board, provided that each maintains certain specified voting or equity ownership thresholds. Cox Parent and A/N also have certain committee designation rights, subject to applicable stock exchange rules and certain specified voting or equity ownership thresholds, and other governance rights. Additionally, the Amended Stockholders Agreement provides that each of Cox Parent and A/N are subject to certain limits on acquisitions of equity securities of Charter (30% in the case of Cox Parent; 19% in the case of A/N). In addition, any shares owned by Cox Parent or A/N in excess of its applicable voting cap (30% in the case of Cox Parent; 15% in the case of A/N) must be voted in proportion to the public stockholders of Charter, other than with respect to certain specified matters. Pursuant to the Amended Stockholders Agreement, each of Cox Parent and A/N are subject to certain standstill provisions and are not permitted to form a group, within the meaning of Regulation 13D, with each other or otherwise have arrangements or understandings concerning Charter except as otherwise permitted by the Amended Stockholders Agreement. Pursuant to the Amended Stockholders Agreement, each of Cox Parent and A/N are entitled to preemptive rights to maintain their respective percentage equity ownership of Charter in certain specified circumstances and to the extent that each maintains certain specified thresholds of equity ownership in Charter. Each of Cox Parent and A/N are subject to certain restrictions on their ability to sell, transfer or dispose of their Charter securities. The rights of each of Cox Parent and A/N under the Amended Stockholders Agreement will generally terminate as such party falls below certain equity ownership thresholds, subject to certain grace periods during which such party can return its ownership or voting interest to the applicable threshold. The Amended Stockholders Agreement also provides that, on the Closing Date, (i) Alexander C. Taylor, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Cox Parent, will serve as the Chairman of the Board for an initial three-year term (unless Mr. Taylor ceases to serve as a member of the Board prior thereto) and (ii) the lead independent director of the Board will be Eric L. Zinterhofer. Following Mr. Taylor’s term as Chairman, the Board will return to its normal annual process. Additionally, following Mr. Taylor’s term as Chairman, Christopher L. Winfrey, the Chief Executive Officer of Charter, will serve as Chairman of the Board; provided that if Mr. Winfrey is no longer a member of the Board or is unwilling to serve as Chairman, then Mr. Zinterhofer instead will serve as Chairman (subject to his continued membership on the Board and willingness to serve).

ITEM 5.02. DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS. On August 14, 2026, John D. Markley, Jr., a director of Charter, informed the Board of his intention to retire from the Board, effective as of the completion of the Transactions. Mr. Markley’s resignation as a director is not the result of any dispute or disagreement with Charter on any matter relating to the operations, policies or practices of Charter. In connection with the completion of the Transactions, effective as of the Liberty Effective Time, Martin E. Patterson and J. David Wargo, two of the directors of Charter designated by Liberty, ceased to be directors of Charter and members of any and all committees of the Board. These actions were not a result of any disputes or disagreements with Charter or any matter relating to Charter’s operations, policies or practices. Balan Nair, the remaining director of Charter designated by Liberty, will remain on the Board as an independent director to fill the vacancy created by Mr. Markley’s resignation. Also in connection with the completion of the Transactions, effective as of the Cox Effective Time, Cox Parent has designated and Charter has appointed Alexander C. Taylor, Dallas Clement and Mark Greatrex to the Board. The Board has determined that each of Messrs. Taylor, Clement and Greatrex qualifies as “independent” in accordance with the published listing requirements of Nasdaq. Also effective as of the Cox Effective Time, Mr. Taylor was appointed Chairman of the Board, and Eric L. Zinterhofer, the previous Non-Executive Chairman of the Board, became the lead independent director of the Board. Mr. Taylor has been appointed to the Compensation and Benefits Committee of the Board, Mr. Clement has been appointed to the Finance Committee of the Board and Mr. Greatrex has been appointed to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board. Each of Messrs. Taylor, Clement and Greatrex will receive the standard compensation amounts payable to non-employee directors of the Board.

Taylor, Clement and Greatrex will receive a restricted stock grant in lieu of the annual cash retainer of $120,000 pursuant to an election to receive stock in lieu of cash compensation made by Messrs. Taylor, Clement and Greatrex, respectively. Each such grant of restricted stock, made on the Closing Date, was prorated to $82,849 for their respective first years of service. In addition, on the Closing Date, each of Messrs. Clement and Greatrex received a grant of restricted stock with a value of $155,342, which was calculated by prorating the amount of the annual restricted stock grant made to each of Charter’s non-employee directors, and Mr. Taylor received a grant of restricted stock with a value of $258,904, which was calculated by prorating the amount of the annual restricted stock grant made to the Non-Executive Chairman of the Board. The restricted stock awards will vest on the date of Charter’s 2027 annual meeting of stockholders, subject to, respectively, Messrs. Taylor’s, Clement’s and Greatrex’s continued service on the Board through that date. Effective as of the Closing Date, each of Messrs. Taylor, Clement and Greatrex has entered into an indemnification agreement with Charter consistent with the form of indemnification agreement entered into between Charter and its existing non-employee directors. There are no arrangements or understandings between Messrs. Taylor, Clement or Greatrex, on the one hand, and any other persons, on the other hand, pursuant to which Messrs.
