Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Liberty Global Ltd. President and CEO Michael T. Fries reported an equity award of 320,148 Restricted Share Units (RSUs) for Class C common shares at a stated price of $0.00 per unit. Each RSU represents the right to receive one Class C share.

These RSUs relate to Performance Share Units (PSUs) granted on March 27, 2024, which are earned based on stock price performance hurdles measured between May 10, 2024 and December 31, 2026. As of year-end 2025, 50% of those PSUs were earned based on relative total shareholder return and converted into time-vesting RSUs.

  1. Each Restricted Share Unit ("RSU") represents a right to receive one share of Issuer's Class C common shares. The reporting person was granted Performance Share Units (PSUs) on March 27, 2024, which are earned upon satisfaction of performance conditions based on achievement of stock price hurdles over a three-year period from May 10, 2024, to December 31, 2026. The PSUs vest on February 15, 2027, assuming the performance conditions are met. Under their terms, the performance conditions are tested at year end 2025 and at year end 2026. As a result of the Issuer's performance against a relative total shareholder return as of year end 2025, 50% of these PSUs were earned against that performance condition and therefore converted into time-vesting RSUs. These RSUs will vest on February 15, 2027, assuming continued employment. The remaining PSUs will be tested at year end 2026 and if the performance conditions are met, will also vest on February 15, 2027. The RSUs will vest in full on February 15, 2027.
