As discussed in note 2, in connection with the merger of Charter and TWC, Liberty exchanged, in a tax-free transaction, its shares of TWC common stock for shares of New Charter Class A common stock, on a one-for-one basis, and Liberty has granted to Liberty Broadband a proxy and a right of first refusal with respect to the shares of New Charter Class A common stock held by Liberty in the exchange.

On May 12, 2016, Interval Leisure Group (“Interval”) completed an acquisition which was accomplished, in part, through the issuance of additional Interval shares. As a result of the share issuance, Liberty’s ownership interest in Interval was reduced from approximately 28.7% to approximately 12.8%. Prior to the transaction, Interval was accounted for as an equity method investment. As a result of the transaction, Liberty does not have ability to exercise significant influence. Accordingly, Interval is classified as available-for-sale and is carried at fair value.
