(E) Performance Graph
The graph below shows the cumulative total return on Charter’s Class A common stock for the period from December 2, 2009
through December 31, 2012, in comparison to the cumulative total return on Standard & Poor’s 500 Index and a peer group
consisting of the national cable operators that are most comparable to us in terms of size and nature of operations. The Company’s
peer group consists of Cablevision Systems Corporation, Comcast Corporation, and Time Warner Cable, Inc. The results shown
assume that $100 was invested on December 2, 2009 in Charter and peer group stock or on November 30, 2009 for the S&P 500
index and that all dividends were reinvested. These indices are included for comparative purposes only and do not reflect whether
it is management’s opinion that such indices are an appropriate measure of the relative performance of the stock involved, nor are
they intended to forecast or be indicative of future performance of Charter’s Class A common stock.
(F) Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
During 2012, there were no unregistered sales of securities of the registrant other than those previously reported on a Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q or Current Report on Form 8-K.
