Explanation of Responses:
1. On July 18, 2023, Liberty Media Corporation (the "Issuer") redeemed (the "Redemption") each share of its Liberty Braves common stock for shares of common stock of Atlanta Braves Holdings, Inc. ("Atlanta Braves Holdings"). In the Redemption, the Issuer redeemed (i) each outstanding share of its Series A Liberty Braves common stock for one share of Atlanta Braves Holdings' Series A common stock, (ii) each outstanding share of its Series B Liberty Braves common stock for one share of Atlanta Braves Holdings' Series B common stock and (iii) each outstanding share of its Series C Liberty Braves common stock for one share of Atlanta Braves Holdings' Series C common stock. Such transactions were approved by the Issuer's board of directors pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
2. In connection with the Redemption, all option awards held by the reporting person with respect to Issuer's Liberty Braves common stock (each, a "Braves Award") were adjusted pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions of the incentive plan under which the option awards were granted, such that each Braves Award was exchanged for an option to purchase an equivalent number of shares of the corresponding series of Atlanta Braves Holdings' common stock. These adjustments were approved by the Issuer's board of directors pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
3. This option award vested 50% on December 10, 2022, and will vest 50% on December 10, 2023.
