Notification filed February 27, 2018, of the pro forma transfer of control of CWC New Cayman Limited (CWC New Cayman), a licensee for the
Gemini-Bermuda cable system (Gemini-Bermuda Cable), SCL-LIC-20070925-00017, from Liberty Global plc (Liberty Global) to Liberty Latin
America Ltd. (Liberty Latin America), effective December 29, 2017.
The Gemini-Bermuda cable is a non-common carrier fiber-optic cable system linking the continental United States to Bermuda.  CWC New
Cayman, a Cayman Islands company, owns, operates and maintains the portion of the Gemini Bermuda System from the U.S. territorial waters to
Bermuda, and also owns all capacity of the system.
Prior to the transaction, CWC New Cayman was an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Liberty Global, a publicly-traded company organized
under the laws of England and Wales.  Liberty Latin America was also a wholly-owned subsidiary of Liberty Global.  Liberty Global's shares
were divided into two tracking groups, both of which are listed on the NASDAQ Stock Exchange: (1) Liberty Global Group which primarily
tracks Liberty Global's European operations, and (2) the LiLAC Group, which primarily tracked Liberty Global's Latin American and Caribbean
operations.
On December 27, 2017, Liberty Global spun off the businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to the LiLAC Group to Liberty Latin America.
Consequently, CWC New Cayman is now indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Liberty Latin America.  Liberty Global no longer has an
ownership interest in Liberty Latin America or CWC New Cayman.
As a result of the spin-off transaction the shares of Liberty Latin America are owned by the previous holders of the LiLAC Group tracking stock.
The same shareholders that controlled Liberty Global controlled Liberty Latin America following the spin-off transaction.

Mexico.  ARCOS and ASN, both Delaware state corporations, hold, on a joint basis, a 94.87% voting and ownership interest in the ARCOS-1
Cable.  ASN operates the ARCOS-1 cable landing station in Florida.  ASN is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of ARCOS.
Prior to the transaction ARCOS and ASN were indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of Liberty Global, a publicly-traded company organized under
the laws of England and Wales.  Liberty Latin America was also a wholly-owned subsidiary of Liberty Global.  Liberty Global's shares were
divided into two tracking groups, both of which are listed on the NASDAQ Stock Exchange: (1) Liberty Global Group which primarily tracks
