10 NOTES TO ATTRIBUTED FINANCIAL INFORMATION (UNAUDITED) (1) The assets attributed to our Interactive Group as of September 30, 2007 include our consolidated subsidiaries QVC, Inc., Provide Commerce, Inc., BuySeasons, Inc. and Backcountry.com, Inc., and our interests in IAC/InterActiveCorp, GSI Commerce, Inc. and Expedia, Inc. Accordingly, the accompanying attributed financial information for the Interactive Group includes our investments in IAC/InterActiveCorp, Expedia and GSI, as well as the assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and cash flows of QVC, Provide, BuySeasons and Backcountry. We have also attributed certain of our debt obligations (and related interest expense) to the Interactive Group based upon a number of factors, including the cash flow available to the Interactive Group and its ability to pay debt service and our assessment of the optimal capitalization for the Interactive Group. The specific debt obligations attributed to each of the Interactive Group and the Capital Group are described in note 3 below. In addition, we have allocated certain corporate general and administrative expenses between the Interactive Group and the Capital Group as described in note 4 below. The Interactive Group focuses on video and on-line commerce businesses. Accordingly, we expect that businesses that we may acquire in the future that we believe are complementary to this strategy will also be attributed to the Interactive Group. The Capital Group consists of all of our businesses not included in the Interactive Group, including our consolidated subsidiaries Starz Entertainment, LLC, Starz Media, LLC, FUN Technologies, Inc., Atlanta National League Baseball Club, Inc., Leisure Arts, Inc., TruePosition, Inc. and WFRV and WJMN Television Station, Inc. and our cost and equity investments in GSN, LLC, WildBlue Communications, Inc. and others. Accordingly, the accompanying attributed financial information for the Capital Group includes these investments and the assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and cash flows of these consolidated subsidiaries. In addition, we have attributed to the Capital Group all of our notes and debentures (and related interest expense) that have not been attributed to the Interactive Group. See note 3 below for the debt obligations attributed to the Capital Group. Any businesses that we may acquire in the future that are not attributed to the Interactive Group will be attributed to the Capital Group. While we believe the allocation methodology described above is reasonable and fair to each group, we may elect to change the allocation methodology in the future. In the event we elect to transfer assets or businesses from one group to the other, such transfer would be made on a fair value basis and would be accounted for as a short-term loan unless our board of directors determines to account for it as a long-term loan or through an inter-group interest. (2) Financial instruments attributed to the Interactive Group are comprised of QVC's interest rate swap agreements and total return bond swaps that are related to the parent company debt attributed to the Interactive Group. 11 NOTES TO ATTRIBUTED FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED) (UNAUDITED) (3) Debt attributed to the Interactive Group and the Capital Group is comprised of the following:

(4) Cash compensation expense for our corporate employees has been allocated between the Interactive Group and the Capital Group based on the estimated percentage of time spent providing services for each group. Stock-based compensation expense for our corporate employees has been allocated between the Interactive Group and the Capital Group based on the compensation derived from the equity awards for the respective tracking stock. Other general and administrative expenses are charged directly to the groups whenever possible and are otherwise allocated based on estimated usage or some other reasonably determined methodology. Amounts allocated from the Capital Group to the Interactive Group for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 were $13 million and $10 million, respectively. While we believe that this allocation method is reasonable and fair to each group, we may elect to change the allocation methodology or percentages used to allocate general and administrative expenses in the future.
