Explanation of Responses:

1. Represents shares underlying performance-based restricted stock units granted to the Reporting Person on March 11, 2024 that were subject to the satisfaction of performance criteria, the vesting of which was accelerated as explained in Remarks section below.

Remarks:

On August 21, 2024, John C. Malone and certain affiliated trusts and entities entered into a Proxy and Voting Agreement with Terence F. McGuirk, Chairman of Braves Holdings, LLC and a director of the Issuer (the "Malone Voting Agreement"). On August 21, 2024, the Reporting Person notified the Issuer of his resignation as President, Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board and a director of the Issuer effective August 31, 2024. The execution of the Malone Voting Agreement constitutes a Change in Control of the Issuer as defined in the Reporting Person's Executive Employment Agreement, dated effective as of December 13, 2019, by and between the Reporting Person and Liberty Media Corporation and the Reporting Person's separation from employment with the Issuer is for "Good Reason" within the meaning of the Reporting Person's Executive Employment Agreement. As a result, the vesting of the equity award reported herein was accelerated to August 29, 2024 and such performance-based restricted stock units were deemed satisfied at 100% of "target".
