The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

  1. F1. On October 6, 2026, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated February 27, 2026 (the "Merger Agreement"), by and among Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc. ("WBD"), Skydance Corporation (f/k/a Paramount Skydance Corporation) ("SKYD") and Prince Sub Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of SKYD ("Merger Sub"), Merger Sub merged with and into WBD, with WBD surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of SKYD (the "Merger").
  2. F2. At the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), each share of WBD's Series A common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Series A Common Stock"), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (except as otherwise provided in the Merger Agreement) was converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $31.01666668 (the "Per Share Merger Consideration"), without interest.
  3. F3. The total amount beneficially owned reflects a removal from Table I to Table II of Series A Common Stock underlying 24,000 deferred stock units ("DSUs") and 9,067 restricted stock units ("RSUs") that have been amended by WBD to provide that such DSUs and RSUs would be settled solely in cash.
  4. F4. The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of these securities, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
  5. F5. Under the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each outstanding deferred stock unit ("DSU") was cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (a) the total number of shares of Series A Common Stock subject to the DSU multiplied by (b) the Per Share Merger Consideration, less applicable withholding taxes, and payable at the same time as the DSU from which it was converted.
  6. F6. On each of June 3, 2025 and June 9, 2026, the Reporting Person was granted a total of 24,000 RSUs and 9,067 RSU, respectively, which were previously reported in Table I of Form 4 by the Reporting Person. Effective October 2, 2026, WBD amended the terms of such previously granted RSUs (including 24,000 of which were deferred and are DSUs) to provide that such RSUs and DSUs would be settled solely in cash. Accordingly, such DSUs and RSUs are now being reported in Table II of Form 4 as derivative securities.
  7. F7. Each RSU represents a right to receive an amount in cash equivalent to the value of one share of Series A Common Stock upon vesting.
  8. F8. Under the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each outstanding vested RSU was cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (a) the total number of shares of Series A Common Stock subject to the RSU multiplied by (b) the Per Share Merger Consideration, less applicable withholding taxes.

"deferred stock unit ("DSU")"
restricted stock unit (RSU) financial
"restricted stock unit ("RSU")"
A restricted stock unit (RSU) is a promise from a company to give an employee company shares (or cash equal to their value) at a future date if certain conditions are met, such as staying with the company or hitting performance targets. For investors, RSUs matter because when they convert into actual shares they increase the number of shares available and can create selling pressure as employees cash out—think of them as a future paycheck paid in company stock.
