    LIBERTY BROADBAND CORPORATION

     

    Pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

     

    in respect of

     

    CHARTER COMMUNICATIONS, INC.

     

    This statement on Schedule 13D/A relates to the Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Charter Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer” or “Charter”). The statement on Schedule 13D originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by Liberty Broadband Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Liberty Broadband” or the “Reporting Person”), on November 13, 2014, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed with the SEC on April 6, 2015, Amendment No. 2 filed with the SEC on June 1, 2015, Amendment No. 3 filed with the SEC on May 26, 2016, Amendment No. 4 filed with the SEC on December 30, 2016, Amendment No. 5 filed with the SEC on December 29, 2017, Amendment No. 6 filed with the SEC on March 4, 2020, Amendment No. 7 filed with the SEC on August 7, 2020, Amendment No. 8 filed with the SEC on December 23, 2020 and Amendment No. 9 filed with the SEC on February 24, 2021 (together, the “Schedule 13D”), is hereby further amended and supplemented to include the information set forth herein. This amended statement on Schedule 13D/A constitutes Amendment No. 10 to the Schedule 13D (this “Amendment,” and together with the Schedule 13D, this “Statement”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Schedule 13D. Except as set forth herein, the Schedule 13D is unmodified.

     

    Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

     

    The information contained in Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:

     

    On September 23, 2024, the Reporting Person communicated to the Issuer a non-binding response (the “Response”) to a non-binding proposal received from the Issuer (the “Charter Proposal”), which Charter Proposal outlined the terms of a proposed combination of the Reporting Person with the Issuer (the “Combination”) whereby each stockholder of the Reporting Person would receive 0.228 of a share of Common Stock for each share of Series A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Reporting Person (the “Series A Common Stock”), Series B Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Reporting Person (the “Series B Common Stock”) and Series C Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Reporting Person (the “Series C Common Stock” and together with the Series A Common Stock and the Series B Common Stock, “LBC Common Stock”). The Charter Proposal also provided that this exchange ratio assumes GCI Holdings, LLC (“GCI”) is not included in the Combination, but that the Issuer is willing to discuss terms for a transaction that would include GCI.

     

    In the Response, the Reporting Person proposed that in the Combination each stockholder of the Reporting Person would receive 0.2900 of a share of Common Stock for each share of LBC Common Stock. The Response also provided that the Combination would include GCI and that the Issuer would assume or refinance the Reporting Person’s debt and preferred stock.

     

    The Combination is intended to be tax-free and would be subject to, among other things, the negotiation and execution of mutually acceptable definitive transaction documents, applicable board approvals and approval of the requisite holders of a majority of the voting power of the Reporting Person and the Issuer, including approval of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the Reporting Person unaffiliated with Mr. John C. Malone and his affiliates. The Response proposes that the Combination would close on June 30, 2027 or such earlier date as the parties shall mutually agree. No further updates on the Charter Proposal, the Response or the proposed Combination will be provided unless and until definitive documents are executed or discussions between the parties terminate, or unless otherwise required by applicable law.

     

    The shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Person and described in this Statement are being held by the Reporting Person for investment purposes.

     

     

     

     

    Other than as set forth in this Amendment, the Reporting Person does not have any present plans or proposals which relate to or would result in: (i) any acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer, or any disposition of securities of the Issuer; (ii) any extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (iii) any sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (iv) any change in the board or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any vacancies on the board; (v) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (vi) any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure; (vii) any change in the Issuer’s charter or bylaws or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (viii) any delisting from a national securities exchange or any loss of authorization for quotation in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association of a class of securities of the Issuer; (ix) any termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), of a class of equity securities of the Issuer; or (x) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

     

    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Reporting Person may determine to change his intentions with respect to the Issuer at any time in the future and may, for example, elect (i) to acquire additional securities of the Issuer in open market or privately negotiated transactions or (ii) to dispose of all or a portion of the Reporting Person’s holdings of securities of the Issuer. In reaching any determination as to his future course of action, the Reporting Person will take into consideration various factors, such as the Issuer’s business and prospects, other developments concerning the Issuer, other business opportunities available to the Reporting Person, tax and estate planning considerations, liquidity needs and general economic and stock market conditions, including, but not limited to, the market prices of the securities.
