COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Quorum

If a broker, who is a record holder of shares, indicates on a form of proxy that the broker does not have discretionary authority to vote those shares on a particular proposal or proposals, or if those shares are voted in circumstances in which proxy authority is defective or has been withheld, those shares ( broker non-votes ) will nevertheless be treated as present for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum. See "—Voting Procedures for Shares Held in Street Name—Effect of Broker Non-Votes" below.

Approval of each of the auditors ratification proposal and the incentive plan proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the aggregate voting power of the outstanding shares of our common stock that are present in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote at the annual meeting, voting together as a single class.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Votes You Have

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Number of Holders

There were, as of the record date, 1,266 and 81 record holders of LSXMA and LSXMB, respectively, 1,214 and 51 record holders of BATRA and BATRB, respectively, and 901 and 69 record holders of FWONA and FWONB, respectively (which amounts do not include the number of stockholders whose shares are held of record by banks, brokers or other nominees, but include each such institution as one holder).

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Voting Procedures for Record Holders

Holders of record of LSXMA, LSXMB, BATRA, BATRB, FWONA and FWONB as of the record date may vote in person at the annual meeting, by telephone or through the Internet. Alternatively, they may give a proxy by completing, signing, dating and returning the proxy card by mail. Instructions for voting by using the telephone or the Internet are printed on the proxy voting instructions attached to the proxy card. In order to vote through the Internet, holders should have their proxy cards available so they can input the required information from the proxy card, and log onto the Internet website address shown on the proxy card. When holders log onto the Internet website address, they will receive instructions on how to vote their shares. The telephone and Internet voting procedures are designed to authenticate votes cast by use of a personal identification number, which will be provided to each voting stockholder separately. Unless subsequently revoked, shares of our common stock represented by a proxy submitted as described herein and received at or before the annual meeting will be voted in accordance with the instructions on the proxy.

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT. It is recommended that you vote by proxy even if you plan to attend the annual meeting. You may change your vote at the annual meeting.

If you submit a properly executed proxy without indicating any voting instructions as to a proposal enumerated in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the shares represented by the proxy will be voted " FOR " the election of each director nominee and " FOR " each of the auditors ratification proposal and the incentive plan proposal.

If you submit a proxy indicating that you abstain from voting as to a proposal, it will have no effect on the election of directors proposal and will have the same effect as a vote " AGAINST " each of the other proposals.

If you do not submit a proxy or you do not vote in person at the annual meeting, your shares will not be counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum, and your failure to vote will have no effect on determining whether any of the proposals are approved (if a quorum is present).

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Voting Procedures for Shares Held in Street Name

General. If you hold your shares in the name of a broker, bank or other nominee, you should follow the instructions provided by your broker, bank or other nominee when voting your shares or to grant or revoke a proxy. The rules and regulations of the New York Stock Exchange and The Nasdaq Stock Market prohibit brokers, banks and other nominees from voting shares on behalf of their clients with respect to numerous matters, including, in our case, all of the proposals described in this proxy statement other than the auditors ratification proposal. Accordingly, to ensure your shares held in

street name are voted on these matters, we encourage you to provide promptly specific voting instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee.

Effect of Broker Non-Votes. Broker non-votes are counted as shares of our common stock present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum but will have no effect on any of the proposals. You should follow the directions your broker, bank or other nominee provides to you regarding how to vote your shares of LSXMA, BATRA, FWONA, LSXMB, BATRB or FWONB or how to change your vote or revoke your proxy.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Revoking a Proxy

If you submitted a proxy prior to the start of the annual meeting, you may change your vote by voting in person at the annual meeting or by delivering a signed proxy revocation or a new signed proxy with a later date to Liberty Media Corporation, c/o Computershare Investor Services, P.O. Box 30170, College Station, Texas 77842. Any signed proxy revocation or later-dated proxy must be received before the start of the annual meeting. In addition, you may change your vote through the Internet or by telephone (if you originally voted by the corresponding method) not later than 2:00 a.m., New York City time, on May 24, 2017.

Your attendance at the annual meeting will not, by itself, revoke a prior vote or proxy from you.

If your shares are held in an account by a broker, bank or other nominee, you should contact your nominee to change your vote or revoke your proxy.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Solicitation of Proxies

We are soliciting proxies by means of our proxy statement and our annual report (together, the proxy materials ) on behalf of our board of directors. In addition to this mailing, our employees may solicit proxies personally or by telephone. We pay the cost of soliciting these proxies. We also reimburse brokers and other nominees for their expenses in sending paper proxy materials to you and getting your voting instructions.

If you have any further questions about voting or attending the annual meeting, please contact Liberty Media Investor Relations at (877) 772-1518.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Other Matters to Be Voted on at the Annual Meeting

If, however, other matters are properly brought to a vote at the annual meeting, the persons designated as proxies will have discretion to vote or to act on these matters according to their best judgment.

Table of Contents

Shares of restricted stock that have been granted pursuant to our incentive plans are included in the outstanding share numbers, for purposes of the table below and throughout this report. The table also includes performance-based restricted stock units that had been certified as earned by our compensation committee on or before February 28, 2017 that will be settled in shares of our common stock within 60 days of such date. Shares of common stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of options, warrants and convertible securities that were exercisable or convertible on or within 60 days after February 28, 2017 are deemed to be outstanding and to be beneficially owned by the person holding the options, warrants or convertible securities for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person and for the aggregate percentage owned by the directors and named executive officers as a group, but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other individual person. For purposes of the following presentation, beneficial ownership of shares of LSXMB, BATRB or FWONB, though convertible on a one-for-one basis into shares of LSXMA, BATRA or FWONA, respectively, are reported as beneficial ownership of LSXMB, BATRB or FWONB only, and not as beneficial ownership of LSXMA, BATRA or FWONA, respectively. So far as is known to us, the persons indicated below have sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the shares indicated as owned by them, except as otherwise stated in the notes to the table.

PROPOSAL 2—THE AUDITORS RATIFICATION PROPOSAL

We are asking our stockholders to ratify the selection of KPMG LLP as our independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017.

Even if the selection of KPMG LLP is ratified, the audit committee of our board of directors in its discretion may direct the appointment of a different independent accounting firm at any time during the year if our audit committee determines that such a change would be advisable. In the event our stockholders fail to ratify the selection of KPMG LLP, our audit committee will consider it as a direction to select other auditors for the year ending December 31, 2017.

A representative of KPMG LLP is expected to be available to answer appropriate questions at the annual meeting and will have the opportunity to make a statement if he or she so desires.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Audit Fees and All Other Fees

(1) Such fees with respect to 2016 and 2015 exclude audit fees, audit related fees and tax fees billed by KPMG LLP to Sirius XM for services rendered. Sirius XM is a separate public company and its audit fees, audit related fees, tax fees and all other fees (which aggregated $2,382,900 in 2016 and $2,162,500 in 2015) are reviewed and approved by the audit committee of the board of directors of Sirius XM. (2) Consists of audit related fees with respect to due diligence related to potential business combinations. (3) Tax fees consist of tax compliance and consultations regarding the tax implications of certain transactions.

Our audit committee has considered whether the provision of services by KPMG LLP to our company other than auditing is compatible with KPMG LLP maintaining its independence and believes that the provision of such other services is compatible with KPMG LLP maintaining its independence.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Policy on Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Auditor

Our audit committee has adopted a policy regarding the pre-approval of all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent auditor. Pursuant to this policy, our audit committee has approved the engagement of our independent auditor to provide the following services (all of which are collectively referred to as pre-approved services ):

ZEQ.=1,SEQ=29,EFW="2231814",CP="LIBERTY MEDIA CORP",DN="1",CHK=282190,FOLIO='23',FILE='DISK134:[17ZAK3.17ZAK10503]DI10503A.;10',USER='IMORTON',CD='19-APR-2017;17:44'

Table of Contents

Notwithstanding the foregoing general pre-approval, if, in the reasonable judgment of Liberty Media's Chief Financial Officer or Senior Vice President and Controller, an individual project involving the provision of pre-approved services is likely to result in fees in excess of $100,000, or if individual projects under $100,000 are likely to equal or exceed $500,000 during the period between the regularly scheduled meetings of the audit committee, then such projects will require the specific pre-approval of our audit committee. Our audit committee has delegated the authority for the foregoing approvals to the chairman of the audit committee, subject to his subsequent disclosure to the entire audit committee of the granting of any such approval. Brian M. Deevy currently serves as the chairman of our audit committee. In addition, the independent auditor is required to provide a report at each regularly scheduled audit committee meeting on all pre-approved services incurred during the preceding quarter. Any engagement of our independent auditors for services other than the pre-approved services requires the specific approval of our audit committee.

Under our policy, any fees incurred by Sirius XM in connection with the provision of services by Sirius XM's independent auditor, are expected to be reviewed and approved by Sirius XM's audit committee pursuant to Sirius XM's policy regarding the pre-approval of all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by its independent auditor in effect at the time of such approval. Such approval by Sirius XM's audit committee pursuant to its policy is deemed to be pre-approval of the services by our audit committee.

Our pre-approval policy prohibits the engagement of our independent auditor to provide any services that are subject to the prohibition imposed by Section 201 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

All services provided by our independent auditor during 2016 were approved in accordance with the terms of the policy in place.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Vote and Recommendation

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the aggregate voting power of the outstanding shares of our common stock that are present in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote at the annual meeting, voting together as a single class, is required to approve the auditors ratification proposal.

Our board of directors unanimously recommends a vote "FOR" the auditors ratification proposal.

PROPOSAL 3—INCENTIVE PLAN PROPOSAL

The following is a description of the material provisions of the Liberty Media Corporation 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the 2017 incentive plan ). The summary that follows is not intended to be complete, and we refer you to the copy of the 2017 incentive plan set forth as Annex A to this proxy statement for a complete statement of its terms and provisions.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Liberty Media Corporation 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan

Our board determined to adopt the 2017 incentive plan, in part, because each of the Liberty Media Corporation 2013 Incentive Plan (Amended and Restated as of March 31, 2015) (the 2013 incentive plan ) and the Liberty Media Corporation 2013 Nonemployee Director Incentive Plan (Amended and Restated December 17, 2015) (the 2013 Nonemployee Director Plan , and together with the 2013 incentive plan, the 2013 Plans ) provides that no new awards may be granted thereunder on or after January 11, 2018, the fifth anniversary of these plans' respective effective date. If the 2017 incentive plan is approved, no additional awards will be made under the 2013 Plans, the shares that remain available for grant under the 2013 Plans will not be used and only the 50 million shares reserved under the 2017 incentive plan (as described below) will be available for grant. The 2017 incentive plan is structured as an omnibus plan under which awards may be made to our company's officers, employees, independent contractors and nonemployee directors. A summary of certain terms of the 2017 incentive plan is set forth below.

The 2017 incentive plan is administered by the compensation committee of our board of directors, other than awards granted to nonemployee directors which may be administered by our full board of directors or the compensation committee. The 2017 incentive plan is designed to provide additional remuneration to eligible officers and employees of our company, our nonemployee directors and independent contractors and to encourage their investment in our capital stock, thereby increasing their proprietary interest in our business. The 2017 incentive plan is also intended to (1) attract persons of exceptional ability to become our officers and employees, and (2) induce nonemployee directors and independent contractors to provide services to us. Such persons will be eligible to participate in and may be granted awards under the 2017 incentive plan. The number of individuals who will receive awards under the 2017 incentive plan will vary from year to year and will depend on various factors, such as the number of promotions and our hiring needs during the year, and whether employees,

Table of Contents

nonemployee directors or independent contractors of our subsidiaries are granted awards. Therefore, we cannot predict the number of future award recipients.

Under the 2017 incentive plan, the compensation committee may grant non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights ( SARs ), restricted shares, RSUs, cash awards, performance awards or any combination of the foregoing (as used in this description of the 2017 incentive plan, collectively, awards ). The maximum number of shares of our common stock with respect to which awards may be granted under the 2017 incentive plan is 50 million shares, subject to anti-dilution and other adjustment provisions of the 2017 incentive plan. With limited exceptions, no employee or independent contractor will be granted in any calendar year awards under the 2017 incentive plan covering more than 8 million shares of our common stock, subject to anti-dilution and other adjustment provisions of the 2017 incentive plan. In addition, no employee or independent contractor may receive payment for cash awards during any calendar year aggregating in excess of $10 million. No nonemployee director may be granted during any calendar year awards having a value (as determined on the grant date of such award) that would be in excess of $2 million.

Shares of our common stock issuable pursuant to awards made under the 2017 incentive plan will be made available from either authorized but unissued shares of our common stock or shares of our common stock that we have issued but reacquired, including shares purchased in the open market. Shares of our common stock that are subject to (i) any award granted under the 2017 incentive plan that expires, terminates or is cancelled or annulled for any reason without having been exercised, (ii) any award of any SARs granted under the 2017 incentive plan the terms of which provide for settlement in cash, and (iii) any award of restricted shares or RSUs granted under the 2017 incentive plan that shall be forfeited prior to becoming vested, will once again be available for issuance under the 2017 incentive plan. Shares of our common stock that are (i) not issued or delivered as a result of the net settlement of an outstanding option or SAR, (ii) used to pay the purchase price or withholding taxes relating to an outstanding award, or (iii) repurchased in the open market with the proceeds of an option purchase price will not again be made available for issuance under the 2017 incentive plan.

Subject to the provisions of the 2017 incentive plan, the compensation committee is authorized to establish, amend and rescind such rules and regulations as it deems necessary or advisable for the proper administration of the 2017 incentive plan and to take such other action in connection with or in relation to the 2017 incentive plan as it deems necessary or advisable.

Unless otherwise determined by the compensation committee and expressly provided for in an agreement, awards are not transferrable except as permitted by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a domestic relations order.

Stock Options. Non-qualified stock options awarded under the 2017 incentive plan will entitle the holder to purchase a specified number of shares of a series of our common stock at a specified exercise price subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable option grant. The exercise price of an option awarded under the 2017 incentive plan may be no less than the fair market value of the shares of the applicable series of our common stock as of the day the option is granted. The term of an option may not exceed ten years; however, if the term of an option expires when trading in our common stock is prohibited by law or our company's policy, the option will expire on the 30 th day after the expiration of such prohibition. The compensation committee will determine, and each individual award agreement will provide, (1) the series and number of shares of our common stock subject to the option, (2) the per share exercise price, (3) whether that price is payable in cash, by check, by promissory note, in whole shares of any series of our common stock, by the withholding of shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the option, by cashless exercise, or any combination of the foregoing, (4) other terms and conditions of exercise, (5) restrictions on transfer of the option and (6) other provisions not inconsistent with the 2017 incentive plan. Dividend equivalents will not be paid with respect to any stock options.

Stock Appreciation Rights. A SAR awarded under the 2017 incentive plan entitles the recipient to receive a payment in stock or cash equal to the excess of the fair market value (on the day the SAR is exercised) of a share of the applicable series of our common stock with respect to which the SAR was granted over the base price specified in the grant. A SAR may be granted to an option holder with respect to all or a portion of the shares of our common stock subject to a related stock option (a tandem SAR ) or granted separately to an eligible person (a free standing SAR ). Tandem SARs are exercisable only at the time and to the extent that the related stock option is exercisable. Upon the exercise or termination of the related stock option, the related tandem SAR will be automatically cancelled to the extent of the number of shares of our common stock with respect to which the related stock option was so exercised or terminated. The base price of a tandem SAR is equal to the exercise price of the related stock option. Free standing SARs are exercisable at the time and upon the terms and conditions provided in the relevant award agreement. The term of a free standing SAR may not exceed ten years; however, if the term of a free standing SAR expires when trading in our common stock is prohibited by law or our company's policy, the free standing SAR will expire on the 30th day after the expiration of such prohibition. The base price of a free standing SAR may be no less than the fair market value of a share of the applicable series of our common stock as of the day the SAR is granted. Dividend equivalents will not be paid with respect to any SARs.

Restricted Shares and RSUs. Restricted shares are shares of our common stock that become vested and may be transferred upon completion of the restriction period. The compensation committee will determine, and each individual award agreement will provide, (1) the price, if any, to be paid by the recipient of the restricted shares, (2) whether dividends or distributions paid with respect to restricted shares will be retained by us during the restriction period ( retained distributions ), (3) whether the holder of the restricted shares may be paid a cash amount any time after the shares become vested, (4) the vesting date or vesting dates (or basis of determining the same) for the award and (5) other terms and conditions of the award. The holder of an award of restricted shares, as the registered owner of such shares, may vote the shares.

A RSU is a unit evidencing the right to receive, in specified circumstances, one share of the specified series of our common stock, or, in the discretion of the company, its cash equivalent, subject to a restriction period or forfeiture conditions. The compensation committee will be authorized to award RSUs based upon the fair market value of shares of any series of our common stock under the 2017 incentive plan. The compensation committee will determine, and each individual award agreement will provide, the terms, conditions, restrictions, vesting requirements and payment rules for awards of RSUs, including whether the holder will be entitled to dividend equivalent payments with respect to the RSUs. RSUs will be issued at the beginning of the restriction period and holders will not be entitled to shares of our common stock covered by RSU awards until such shares are issued to the holder at the end of the restriction period.

Upon the applicable vesting date, all or the applicable portion of restricted shares or RSUs will vest, any retained distributions or unpaid dividend equivalents with respect to the restricted shares or RSUs will vest to the extent that the awards related thereto have vested, and any cash amount to be received by the holder with respect to the restricted shares or RSUs will become payable, all in accordance with the terms of the individual award agreement. The compensation committee may permit a holder to elect to defer delivery of any restricted shares or RSUs that become vested and any related cash payments, retained distributions or dividend equivalents, provided that such deferral elections are made in accordance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code ).

Cash Awards. The compensation committee will also be authorized to provide for the grant of cash awards under the 2017 incentive plan. A cash award is a bonus paid in cash that may be based upon the attainment of one or more performance goals over a performance period established by the

compensation committee. The terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any cash awards will be determined by the compensation committee.

Performance Awards. At the discretion of the compensation committee, any of the above-described awards may be designated as a performance award. All cash awards shall be designated as performance awards. Performance awards are contingent upon performance measures applicable to a particular period, as established by the compensation committee and set forth in individual agreements, based upon any one or more of the following business criteria:

Performance measures may apply to the award recipient, to one or more business units, divisions or subsidiaries of our company or an applicable sector of our company, or to our company as a whole, or any entity or entities to which our company or its subsidiaries are providing services. Goals may also be based on performance relative to a peer group of companies. A performance measure need not be based upon an increase or positive result under a particular business criterion and could include, for example, maintaining the status quo or limiting economic losses (measured, in each case, by reference to specific business criteria). If the compensation committee intends for the performance award to be granted and administered in a manner that preserves the deductibility of the compensation resulting

from such award in accordance with Section 162(m) of the Code, the applicable performance goals must be established (1) no later than 90 days after the commencement of the period of service to which the performance goals relate and (2) prior to the completion of 25% of such period of service. The compensation committee will have no discretion to modify or waive such performance goals to increase the amount of compensation payable that would otherwise be due upon attainment of the goal, unless the applicable award is not intended to qualify as qualified performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code and the relevant agreement provides for such discretion. The compensation committee shall have the authority to determine whether the performance measures and other terms and conditions of the award are satisfied, and the compensation committee's determination as to the achievement of performance measures relating to a performance award shall be made in writing. Section 162(m) of the Code generally disallows deductions for compensation in excess of $1 million for our Chief Executive Officer and our three other most highly compensated executive officers (other than the Chief Financial Officer), unless the awards meet the requirements for being performance-based.

Awards Generally. Awards under the 2017 incentive plan may be granted either individually, in tandem or in combination with each other. Where applicable, the securities underlying, or relating to, awards granted under the 2017 incentive plan may be shares of LSXMA, LSXMB, LSXMK, BATRA, BATRB, BATRK, FWONA, FWONB or FWONK as provided in the relevant grant. The closing prices of LSXMA, LSXMK, BATRA, BATRK, FWONA, FWONB or FWONK shares were $38.94, $38.89, $23.51, $23.47, $31.74, $30.60 and $33.40, respectively, as of April 12, 2017. The closing price of LSXMB shares was $40.31 on April 4, 2017 and the closing price of BATRB shares was $23.92 on April 10, 2017. Under certain conditions, including the occurrence of certain approved transactions, a board change or a control purchase (all as defined in the 2017 incentive plan), options and SARs will become immediately exercisable, and the restrictions on restricted shares and RSUs will lapse, unless individual agreements state otherwise or the compensation committee determines in connection with an approved transaction that the vesting and exercisability of awards will not accelerate because action has been taken to provide for a substantially equivalent substitute award. At the time an award is granted, the compensation committee will determine, and the relevant agreement will provide for, any vesting or early termination, upon a holder's termination of employment or service with our company, of any unvested options, SARs, RSUs or restricted shares and the period during which any vested options and SARs must be exercised. Unless otherwise provided in the relevant agreement, (1) no option or SAR may be exercised after its scheduled expiration date (however, if the term of an option or SAR expires when trading in our common stock is prohibited by law or our company's insider trading policy, then the term of such option or SAR shall expire on the 30th day after the expiration of such prohibition), (2) if the holder's service terminates by reason of death or disability (as defined in the 2017 incentive plan), his or her options or SARs shall remain exercisable for a period of at least one year following such termination (but not later than the scheduled expiration date) and (3) any termination of the holder's service for "cause" (as defined in the 2017 incentive plan) will result in the immediate termination of all options and SARs and the forfeiture of all rights to any restricted shares, RSUs, retained distributions, unpaid dividend equivalents and related cash amounts held by such terminated holder. If a holder's service terminates due to death or disability, options and SARs will become immediately exercisable, and the restrictions on restricted shares and RSUs will lapse and become fully vested, unless individual agreements state otherwise.

Adjustments. The number and kind of shares of our common stock that may be awarded or otherwise made subject to awards under the 2017 incentive plan, the number and kind of shares of our common stock covered by outstanding awards and the purchase or exercise price and any relevant appreciation base with respect to any of the foregoing will be subject to appropriate adjustment as the compensation committee deems equitable, in its sole discretion, in the event (1) we subdivide the outstanding shares of any series of our common stock into a greater number of shares of such series of common stock, (2) we combine the outstanding shares of any series of our common stock into a

In addition, in the event of a merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, separation, reorganization or liquidation, the compensation committee has the discretion to (i) provide, prior to the transaction, for the acceleration of vesting and exercisability, or lapse of restrictions, with respect to the awards, or in the case of a cash merger, termination of unexercised awards, or (ii) cancel such awards and deliver cash to holders based on the fair market value of such awards as determined by the compensation committee, in a manner that is in compliance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. If the purchase price of options or the base price of SARs, as applicable, is greater than the fair market value of such options or SARs, the options or SARs may be canceled for no consideration.

Amendment and Termination. The 2017 incentive plan will terminate on the fifth anniversary of the plan's effective date (which will be the date of the 2017 annual meeting of stockholders if the 2017 incentive plan is approved) unless earlier terminated by the compensation committee. The compensation committee may suspend, discontinue, modify or amend the 2017 incentive plan at any time prior to its termination, except that outstanding awards may not be amended to reduce the purchase or base price of outstanding options or SARs. However, before an amendment may be made that would adversely affect a participant who has already been granted an award, the participant's consent must be obtained, unless the change is necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Consequences to Participants

The following is a summary of the U.S. federal income tax consequences that generally will arise with respect to awards granted under the 2017 incentive plan and with respect to the sale of any shares of our common stock acquired under the 2017 incentive plan. This general summary does not purport to be complete, does not describe any state, local or non-U.S. tax consequences, and does not address issues related to the tax circumstances of any particular recipient of an award under the 2017 incentive plan.

Non-Qualified Stock Options; SARs. Holders will not recognize taxable income upon the grant of a non-qualified stock option or a SAR. Upon the exercise of a non-qualified stock option or a SAR, the holder will recognize ordinary income (subject to withholding, if applicable) in an amount equal to the excess of (1) the fair market value on the date of exercise of the shares received over (2) the exercise price or base price (if any) he or she paid for the shares. The holder will generally have a tax basis in any shares of our common stock received pursuant to the exercise of a SAR, or pursuant to the cash exercise of a non-qualified stock option, that equals the fair market value of such shares on the date of exercise. The disposition of the shares of our common stock acquired upon exercise of a non-qualified stock option will ordinarily result in capital gain or loss. We are entitled to a deduction in an amount equal to the income recognized by the holder upon the exercise of a non-qualified stock option or SAR.

Cash Awards; RSUs; Restricted Shares. A holder will recognize ordinary compensation income upon receipt of cash pursuant to a cash award or, if earlier, at the time such cash is otherwise made available for the holder to draw upon it, and we will have a corresponding deduction for federal income tax purposes, subject to certain limits on deductibility discussed below. A holder will not have taxable income upon the grant of a RSU but rather will generally recognize ordinary compensation income at the time the award is settled in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares

received, at which time we will have a corresponding deduction for federal income tax purposes, subject to certain limits on deductibility discussed below.

Generally, a holder will not recognize taxable income upon the grant of restricted shares, and we will not be entitled to any federal income tax deduction upon the grant of such award. The value of the restricted shares will generally be taxable to the holder as compensation income in the year or years in which the restrictions on the shares of common stock lapse. Such value will equal the fair market value of the shares on the date or dates the restrictions terminate. A holder, however, may elect pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code to treat the fair market value of the shares subject to the restricted share award on the date of such grant as compensation income in the year of the grant of the restricted share award. The holder must make such an election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code within 30 days after the date of grant. If such an election is made and the holder later forfeits the restricted shares to us, the holder will not be allowed to deduct, at a later date, the amount such holder had earlier included as compensation income. In any case, we will receive a deduction for federal income tax purposes corresponding in amount to the amount of compensation included in the holder's income in the year in which that amount is so included, subject to certain limits on deductibility discussed below.

A holder who is an employee will be subject to withholding for federal, and generally for state and local, income taxes at the time the holder recognizes income under the rules described above with respect to the cash or the shares of our common stock received pursuant to awards. Dividends that are received by a holder prior to the time that the restricted shares are taxed to the holder under the rules described in the preceding paragraph are taxed as additional compensation, not as dividend income. The tax basis of a holder in the shares of our common stock received will equal the amount recognized by the holder as compensation income under the rules described in the preceding paragraph, and the holder's holding period in such shares will commence on the date income is so recognized.

Certain Tax Code Limitations on Deductibility. In order for us to deduct the amounts described above, such amounts must constitute reasonable compensation for services rendered or to be rendered and must be ordinary and necessary business expenses. The ability to obtain a deduction for awards under the 2017 incentive plan could also be limited by Section 280G of the Code, which provides that certain excess parachute payments made in connection with a change in control of an employer are not deductible. The ability to obtain a deduction for amounts paid under the 2017 incentive plan could also be affected by Section 162(m) of the Code, which limits the deductibility, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, of compensation paid to certain employees to $1 million during any taxable year. However, certain exceptions apply to this limitation in the case of qualified performance-based compensation. In certain cases, we may determine it is in our interests to not satisfy the requirements for the qualified performance-based exception. Stockholder approval of the 2017 incentive plan will allow our compensation committee to structure awards in a manner that may qualify for these requirements.

Code Section 409A. Section 409A of the Code generally provides that any deferred compensation arrangement must satisfy specific requirements, both in operation and in form, regarding (1) the timing of payment, (2) the advance election of deferrals, and (3) restrictions on the acceleration of payment. Failure to comply with Section 409A of the Code may result in the early taxation (plus interest) to the participant of deferred compensation and the imposition of a 20% penalty on the participant on such deferred amounts included in the participant's income. We intend to structure awards under the 2017 incentive plan in a manner that is designed to be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code.

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act ) requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Officers, directors and greater than ten-percent stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16 forms they file.

Based solely on a review of the copies of the Forms 3, 4 and 5 and amendments to those forms furnished to us during our most recent fiscal year, or written representations that no Forms 5 were required, we believe that, during the year ended December 31, 2016, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than ten-percent beneficial owners were met, with the exception of one Form 4 reporting one transaction by Larry E. Romrell and one Form 4 reporting two transactions by Christopher W. Shean, our former Chief Financial Officer, each of which were filed on an untimely basis.

It is our policy that a majority of the members of our board of directors be independent of our management. For a director to be deemed independent, our board of directors must affirmatively determine that the director has no direct or indirect material relationship with us. To assist our board of directors in determining which of our directors qualify as independent for purposes of Nasdaq rules as well as applicable rules and regulations adopted by the SEC, the nominating and corporate governance committee of our board of directors follows the Corporate Governance Rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market on the criteria for director independence.

Our board of directors has determined that each of Robert R. Bennett, Brian M. Deevy, M. Ian G. Gilchrist, David E. Rapley, Larry E. Romrell and Andrea L. Wong qualifies as an independent director of our company.

Our nominating and corporate governance committee oversees risks associated with the independence of the board. These committees then provide reports periodically to the full board. The oversight responsibility of the board and its committees is enabled by management reporting processes that are designed to provide visibility to the board about the identification, assessment and management of critical risks. These areas of focus include strategic, operational, financial and reporting, succession and compensation, legal and compliance, and other risks. Our management reporting processes include regular reports from our Chief Executive Officer, which are prepared with input from our senior management team, and also include input from our Internal Audit group.

No member of our compensation committee during 2016 is or has been an officer or employee of our company, or has engaged in any related party transaction in which our company was a participant.

Our board of directors has established a nominating and corporate governance committee, whose chairman is David E. Rapley and whose other members are M. Ian G. Gilchrist, Larry E. Romrell and Andrea L. Wong. See "—Director Independence" above.

The nominating and corporate governance committee identifies individuals qualified to become board members consistent with criteria established or approved by our board of directors from time to time, identifies director nominees for upcoming annual meetings, develops corporate governance guidelines applicable to our company and oversees the evaluation of our board and management.

The nominating and corporate governance committee will consider candidates for director recommended by any stockholder provided that such recommendations are properly submitted. Eligible stockholders wishing to recommend a candidate for nomination as a director should send the recommendation in writing to the Corporate Secretary, Liberty Media Corporation, 12300 Liberty Boulevard, Englewood, Colorado 80112. Stockholder recommendations must be made in accordance with our bylaws, as discussed under "Stockholder Proposals" below, and contain the following information:

In connection with its evaluation, the nominating and corporate governance committee may request additional information from the proposing stockholder and the candidate. The nominating and corporate governance committee has sole discretion to decide which individuals to recommend for nomination as directors.

To be nominated to serve as a director, a nominee need not meet any specific minimum criteria. However, the nominating and corporate governance committee believes that nominees for director should possess the highest personal and professional ethics, integrity, values and judgment and should be committed to the long-term interests of our stockholders. When evaluating a potential director nominee, including one recommended by a stockholder, the nominating and corporate governance committee will take into account a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the following:

The nominating and corporate governance committee does not assign specific weights to particular criteria and no particular criterion is necessarily applicable to all prospective nominees. The nominating and corporate governance committee does not have a formal policy with respect to diversity; however, our board and the nominating and corporate governance committee believe that it is important that our board members represent diverse viewpoints.

Table of Contents

When seeking candidates for director, the nominating and corporate governance committee may solicit suggestions from incumbent directors, management, stockholders and others. After conducting an initial evaluation of a prospective nominee, the nominating and corporate governance committee will interview that candidate if it believes the candidate might be suitable to be a director. The nominating and corporate governance committee may also ask the candidate to meet with management. If the nominating and corporate governance committee believes a candidate would be a valuable addition to our board of directors, it may recommend to the full board that candidate's nomination and election.

Prior to nominating an incumbent director for re-election at an annual meeting of stockholders, the nominating and corporate governance committee will consider the director's past attendance at, and participation in, meetings of the board of directors and its committees and the director's formal and informal contributions to the various activities conducted by the board and the board committees of which such individual is a member.

The members of our nominating and corporate governance committee have determined that Messrs. Evan D. Malone, Rapley and Romrell, who are nominated for election at the annual meeting, continue to be qualified to serve as directors of our company and such nominations were approved by the entire board of directors.

Our board of directors has adopted a written charter for the nominating and corporate governance committee. Our board of directors has also adopted corporate governance guidelines, which were developed by the nominating and corporate governance committee. The charter and the corporate governance guidelines are available on our website at www.libertymedia.com .

Our board of directors has established an audit committee, whose chairman is Brian M. Deevy and whose other members are M. Ian G. Gilchrist and Larry E. Romrell. See "—Director Independence" above.

Our board of directors has determined that Mr. Gilchrist is an "audit committee financial expert" under applicable SEC rules and regulations. The audit committee reviews and monitors the corporate financial reporting and the internal and external audits of our company. The committee's functions include, among other things:

Each member of the audit committee is an independent director as determined by our board of directors, based on the listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market. Each member of the audit committee also satisfies the SEC's independence requirements for members of audit committees. Our board of directors has determined that Mr. Gilchrist is an "audit committee financial expert" under applicable SEC rules and regulations.

The audit committee reviews our financial reporting process on behalf of our board of directors. Management has primary responsibility for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls, for preparing financial statements and for the public reporting process. Our independent auditor, KPMG LLP, is responsible for expressing opinions on the conformity of our audited consolidated financial statements with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Our independent auditor also expresses its opinion as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

Our audit committee has reviewed and discussed with management and KPMG LLP our most recent audited consolidated financial statements, as well as management's assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and KPMG LLP's evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Our audit committee has also discussed with KPMG LLP the matters required to be discussed by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 1301, Communications with Audit Committees, including that firm's judgment about the quality of our accounting principles, as applied in its financial reporting.

KPMG LLP has provided our audit committee with the written disclosures and the letter required by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding KPMG LLP's communications with the audit committee concerning independence, and the audit committee has discussed with KPMG LLP that firm's independence from the company and its subsidiaries.

Based on the reviews, discussions and other considerations referred to above, our audit committee recommended to our board of directors that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 (the 2016 Form 10-K ), which was filed on February 28, 2017 with the SEC.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

This section sets forth information relating to, and an analysis and discussion of, compensation paid by our company to the following persons (who we collectively refer to as our named executive officers ):

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Our compensation committee of our board of directors has responsibility for establishing, implementing and regularly monitoring adherence to our compensation philosophy. That philosophy seeks to align the interests of the named executive officers with those of our stockholders, with the ultimate goal of appropriately motivating our executives to increase long-term stockholder value. To that end, the compensation packages provided to the named executive officers (other than Mr. Malone) include significant performance-based bonuses and significant equity incentive awards, including equity awards that vest many years after initial grant.

Our compensation committee seeks to approve a compensation package for each named executive officer that is commensurate with the responsibilities and proven performance of that executive and that is competitive relative to the compensation packages paid to similarly situated executives in other companies. Our compensation committee does not engage in any regular benchmarking analysis; rather, it is familiar with the range of total compensation paid by other companies and periodically reviews survey information provided by Mercer (US) Inc. ( Mercer ) and others. Our compensation committee uses this range and survey data as a guide to ensure that the named executive officers receive attractive compensation packages. Our compensation committee believes that our compensation packages should assist our company in attracting and retaining key executives critical to our long-term success.

At our 2015 annual stockholder meeting, stockholders representing 79.4% of the aggregate voting power of Liberty Media present and entitled to vote on our say-on-pay proposal approved, on an advisory basis, our executive compensation disclosed in our proxy statement for the 2015 annual meeting of stockholders. No material changes were implemented to our executive compensation program as a result of this vote. In 2012, the stockholders of our predecessor parent company (currently Starz Acquisition, LLC or Old LMC ) elected to hold a say-on-pay vote every three years, and we assumed the results of that vote in connection with the spin-off in 2013 of our company from Old LMC (the LMC Spin-Off ). Starz Acquisition, LLC, which was formerly known as Starz prior to its December 2016 acquisition by Lions Gate Entertainment Corp., will be referred to herein as Starz .

In connection with prior spin-off or split off transactions involving our company or Liberty Interactive, we entered into transitional services arrangements with each of Liberty Interactive, Starz, Liberty Broadband, Liberty TripAdvisor, CommerceHub, Inc. ( CommerceHub ) and Liberty Expedia. Pursuant to these arrangements, our employees provide services to these companies and our company is reimbursed for the time spent serving these companies.

Liberty Interactive Corporation . We assumed a services agreement with Liberty Interactive in connection with the LMC Spin-Off (the LIC Services Agreement ). Pursuant to the LIC Services Agreement, in 2016, Liberty Interactive reimbursed us for the portion of the base salary and certain other compensation we paid to our employees that was allocable to Liberty Interactive for time spent by each such employee related to that company. Liberty Interactive does not reimburse us for time spent by Mr. Maffei on Liberty Interactive matters. Rather, Liberty Interactive pays Mr. Maffei directly pursuant to his employment agreement with Liberty Interactive. The 2016 performance-based bonuses earned by the named executive officers for services provided to our company were paid directly by our company and the performance-based bonuses earned by the named executive officers for services provided to Liberty Interactive were paid directly by Liberty Interactive. During 2016, the estimate of the allocable percentages of time spent performing services for Liberty Interactive, on the one hand, and our company, on the other hand, were reviewed quarterly by our audit committee for appropriateness. The salaries and certain perquisite information included in the "Summary Compensation Table" below reflect the portion of the compensation paid by and allocable to Liberty Media and do not reflect the portion of the compensation allocable to Liberty Interactive and for which Liberty Interactive reimbursed Liberty Media under the LIC Services Agreement. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the weighted average percentage of each such named executive officer's time that was allocated to our company was: Mr. Malone—38%; Mr. Baer—65%; Mr. Carleton—86%; Mr. Rosenthaler—63%; and Mr. Shean—39%.

Starz . In January 2013, we separated from Starz in the LMC Spin-Off. In connection with the LMC Spin-Off, we entered into a services agreement with Starz, pursuant to which Starz compensated us for the portion of the salary and other cash compensation we paid to our employees, including our named executive officers (other than Mr. Maffei), that was allocable to Starz for time spent on matters related to Starz. The services agreement provided that a portion of Mr. Maffei's base salary would be allocable to Starz for time spent on matters related to Starz and provided that none of Mr. Maffei's performance-based bonus would be allocable to Starz. For the year ended December 31, 2016, we allocated to Starz 11.3% of Mr. Maffei's base salary, 6.3% of Mr. Carleton's base salary and perquisites and 5% of Mr. Rosenthaler's base salary and perquisites, and we were compensated accordingly under the services agreement.

Liberty TripAdvisor . In August 2014, Liberty Interactive completed the spin-off of its subsidiary, Liberty TripAdvisor (the TripCo Spin-Off ). In connection with the TripCo Spin-Off, Liberty Interactive requested that we enter into a services agreement with Liberty TripAdvisor, pursuant to which we provide to Liberty TripAdvisor certain administrative and management services, and Liberty TripAdvisor pays us a monthly management fee, the amount of which is subject to semi-annual review. For the year ended December 31, 2016, Liberty TripAdvisor accrued aggregate management fees of $2.25 million payable to our company under the services agreement.

Liberty Broadband . In November 2014, we completed the spin-off of our subsidiary, Liberty Broadband (the Broadband Spin-Off ). In connection with the Broadband Spin-Off, we entered into a services agreement with Liberty Broadband, pursuant to which we provide to Liberty Broadband certain administrative and management services, and Liberty Broadband pays us a monthly management fee, the amount of which is subject to semi-annual review. For the year ended December 31, 2016, Liberty Broadband accrued aggregate management fees of $2.54 million payable to our company under the services agreement.

CommerceHub . In July 2016, Liberty Interactive completed the spin-off of its subsidiary, CommerceHub (the CommerceHub Spin-Off ). In connection with the CommerceHub Spin-Off, Liberty Interactive requested that we enter into a services agreement with CommerceHub, pursuant to which we provide to CommerceHub certain administrative and management services, and CommerceHub pays us a monthly management fee, the amount of which is subject to quarterly review. For the year ended

December 31, 2016, CommerceHub accrued aggregate management fees of $95 thousand payable to our company under the services agreement.

Liberty Expedia Holdings . In November 2016, Liberty Interactive completed the split-off of its subsidiary, Liberty Expedia (the Expedia Holdings Split-Off ). In connection with the Expedia Holdings Split-Off, Liberty Interactive requested that we enter into a services agreement with Liberty Expedia, pursuant to which we provide to Liberty Expedia certain administrative and management services, and Liberty Expedia pays us a monthly management fee, the amount of which is subject to semi-annual review. For the year ended December 31, 2016, Liberty Expedia accrued aggregate management fees of $464 thousand payable to our company under the services agreement.

In making its compensation decision for each named executive officer (other than Mr. Malone), our compensation committee considers the following:

In addition, when setting compensation, our compensation committee considers the recommendations obtained from our Chief Executive Officer as to all elements of the compensation packages of Messrs. Baer, Carleton, Rosenthaler and Shean. To make these recommendations, our Chief Executive Officer evaluates the performance and contributions of each such named executive officer. He also considers whether the pay packages afforded to such named executive officers are competitive and are aligned internally. He also evaluates the named executive officer's performance against individual, department and corporate goals.

In December 2014, our compensation committee approved a five-year employment agreement with Mr. Maffei (the Maffei Employment Agreement ), which sets his compensation for the term of the agreement. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—Gregory B. Maffei" below. Prior to entering into the Maffei Employment Agreement, our compensation committee reviewed information from Mercer with respect to chief executive officer compensation packages at media, telecommunications, e-commerce and entertainment companies and discussed with Mercer alternative equity award structures.

In May 2016, our compensation committee approved a new four-year employment agreement with Mr. Baer (the 2016 Baer Employment Agreement ), which sets his compensation for the term of the agreement. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—Richard N. Baer" below. Prior to entering into the 2016 Baer Employment Agreement, our compensation committee reviewed compensation data with respect to chief legal officer compensation packages at media, telecommunications and entertainment companies.

Mr. Malone's compensation is governed by the terms of his employment agreement with our company. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—John C. Malone."

Table of Contents

For 2016, the principal components of compensation for the named executive officers (other than Mr. Malone) were:

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Base Salary

Our compensation committee believes base salary should be a relatively smaller portion of each named executive officer's overall compensation package, thereby aligning the interests of our executives more closely with those of our stockholders. The base salaries of the named executive officers are reviewed on an annual basis (other than Messrs. Malone and Maffei, whose salaries are set by their respective employment agreements), as well as at the time of any change in responsibilities. Typically, after establishing a named executive officer's base salary, salary increases are limited to cost-of-living adjustments, adjustments based on changes in the scope of the named executive officer's responsibilities, and adjustments to align the named executive officer's salary level with those of our other named executive officers. Similarly, in accordance with the terms of his employment agreement, Mr. Malone's cash compensation is limited.

After completion of the annual review in December 2015, the 2016 base salaries of Messrs. Baer, Carleton, Rosenthaler and Shean were increased by 3%, reflecting a cost-of-living adjustment. For 2016, Mr. Maffei received the 5% base salary increase prescribed by the Maffei Employment Agreement. Mr. Malone received no increase under the terms of his employment agreement.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" 2016 Performance-based Bonuses

For 2016, our compensation committee adopted an annual, performance-based bonus program for each of the named executive officers (other than Mr. Malone), which was structured to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code. The 2016 bonus program was comprised of two components: a bonus amount payable based on each participant's individual performance (the Individual Performance Bonus ) and a bonus amount payable based on the corporate performance of our company (the Corporate Performance Bonus ). No amounts would be payable under our 2016 bonus program unless a minimum corporate performance was achieved: the combined Adjusted OIBDA (or equivalent measure) of Sirius XM and Braves Holdings, LLC ( Braves Holdings ), and a proportionate share of the equivalent measure of Adjusted OIBDA of Live Nation, for the year ended December 31, 2016 was required to exceed $500 million (the Bonus Threshold ). If the Bonus Threshold was met, the notional bonus pool for our company would be funded with 0.72% of the amount by which such combined Adjusted OIBDA exceeded $500 million (the Cash Bonus Pool ). If the Cash Bonus Pool were insufficient to cover the aggregate maximum bonus amounts of all participants (as described in more detail below), each participant's maximum bonus amount would be reduced pro rata, for all purposes under the program, based upon his respective maximum bonus amount.

For purposes of the bonus program, Adjusted OIBDA is defined as revenue less cost of sales, operating expense and selling, general and administrative expense (excluding stock compensation). Sirius XM and Live Nation do not report Adjusted OIBDA information. As a result, we used Adjusted

EBITDA as reported by Sirius XM and Adjusted Operating Income, or AOI , as reported by Live Nation, which are the most similar non-GAAP measures reported by Sirius XM and Live Nation, to determine their results. For a definition of Adjusted EBITDA as defined by Sirius XM, see Sirius XM's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, filed on February 2, 2017. For a definition of AOI as defined by Live Nation, see Live Nation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, filed on February 23, 2017.

Each participant was assigned a maximum bonus under the performance-based bonus program for each of Liberty Media and Liberty Interactive. The maximum bonuses for this program were as follows: Mr. Maffei—$5,043,938; Mr. Baer—$901,500; Mr. Carleton—$875,500; Mr. Rosenthaler—$875,500 and Mr. Shean—$875,500 (each participant's LMC Maximum Performance Bonus ). Liberty Interactive also established maximum performance-based bonuses for our participants in the same amounts.

To determine the LMC Maximum Performance Bonus for each of Messrs. Baer, Carleton, Rosenthaler, and Shean, our compensation committee divided the base salary paid by our company in half, recognizing that the other half would be subject to Liberty Interactive's bonus program. Our compensation committee then set the LMC Maximum Performance Bonus at two times the quotient above for Mr. Baer, Mr. Carleton, Mr. Rosenthaler and Mr. Shean. Mr. Maffei's LMC Maximum Performance Bonus was set at five times the base salary paid by our company, which is consistent with the terms of the Maffei Employment Agreement.

Assuming the Bonus Threshold was met (and after taking into account any reductions associated with a shortfall in the Cash Bonus Pool), each participant was entitled to receive from our company an amount (the LMC Maximum Individual Bonus) equal to 60% of the LMC Maximum Performance Bonus for that participant. The LMC Maximum Individual Bonus was subject to reduction based on a subjective determination of the participant's achievement of qualitative criteria established with respect to the services to be performed by the participant on behalf of our company. Under Liberty Interactive's corollary program, each participant was entitled to receive from Liberty Interactive a maximum individual bonus in the same amount, subject to reduction based on a subjective determination of the participant's achievement of qualitative criteria established with respect to the services to be performed by the participant on behalf of Liberty Interactive. Our compensation committee believes this construct was appropriate in light of the LIC Services Agreement and the fact that each participant splits his professional time and duties.

Also, assuming the Bonus Threshold was met (and after taking into account any reductions associated with a shortfall in the Cash Bonus Pool), each participant was entitled to receive from our company an amount (the LMC Maximum Corporate Bonus ) equal to 40% of his LMC Maximum Performance Bonus, subject to reduction based on a subjective determination of the corporate performance of our company. Under Liberty Interactive's corollary program, each participant was entitled to receive from Liberty Interactive the same amount as the LMC Maximum Corporate Bonus, subject to reduction based on a subjective determination of the corporate performance of Liberty Interactive.

In December 2016, our compensation committee and the Liberty Interactive compensation committee reviewed contemporaneously our respective named executive officers' performance under each company's program. Notwithstanding this joint effort, our compensation committee retained sole and exclusive discretion with respect to the approval of award terms and amounts payable under our bonus program.

Also, in December 2016, our compensation committee determined that the combined Adjusted OIBDA (or equivalent measure) for Sirius XM and Braves Holdings, and a proportionate share of the equivalent measure of Adjusted OIBDA of Live Nation, was approximately $2.057 billion using the formula described above, exceeding the Bonus Threshold by approximately $1.557 billion, thereby creating a notional Cash Bonus Pool of approximately $11.21 million, which exceeded the amount

necessary to cover the aggregate maximum bonus amounts of all the participants and enabling each participant to receive a bonus under the performance-based program up to his maximum bonus amount.

Individual Performance Bonus . Our compensation committee then reviewed the individual performance of each participant to determine the reductions that would apply to each participant's LMC Maximum Individual Bonus. Our compensation committee took into account a variety of factors, without assigning a numerical weight to any single performance measure. This determination was based on reports of our board, the observations of committee members throughout the year, executive self-evaluations and, with respect to the participants other than Mr. Maffei, the observations and input of Mr. Maffei. In evaluating the performance of each of the participants for determining the reduction that would apply to each named executive officer's LMC Maximum Individual Bonus, our compensation committee considered the various performance objectives related to our company which had been assigned to each participant for 2016, including:

Our compensation committee then considered the time allocated and services provided by each named executive officer to (i) our company, or (ii) the companies who are parties to the services agreements, under which our company is reimbursed for such time and services. See "—Services Agreements" above. Following a review of the above, our compensation committee determined to pay Messrs. Maffei, Baer, Carleton, and Rosenthaler 100% of each of their LMC Maximum Individual Bonus: In view of Mr. Shean's changed focus and responsibilities, Mr. Shean was paid 62.5% of his LMC Maximum Individual Bonus.

Corporate Performance Bonus . Our compensation committee then made a subjective determination as to the reductions, if any, that would apply to each participant's LMC Maximum Corporate Bonus. In making this determination, our compensation committee reviewed forecasts of 2016 Adjusted OIBDA, revenue and free cash flow (as defined below) for Sirius XM and Braves Holdings, and a proportionate share of Live Nation, all of which forecasts were prepared in December 2016 and are set forth in the table below. Also set forth in the table below are the corresponding actual financial measures achieved for 2016, which were within one percent of our forecasts, except that actual free cash flow was 9% higher than the forecast. In determining whether any reductions would be made to the LMC Maximum Corporate Bonus payable to each participant, our compensation committee weighted the corporate performance metrics as follows: 25% attributable to revenue growth, 50% attributable to Adjusted OIBDA growth and 25% attributable to free cash flow in comparison to budget.

one-time cash bonuses to the following named executive officers in 2016: Mr. Maffei—$928,872, Mr. Baer—$106,355, Mr. Carleton—$151,773, and Mr. Rosenthaler—$84,903.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Equity Incentive Compensation

The 2013 incentive plan provides for the grant of a variety of incentive awards, including stock options, restricted shares, RSUs, stock appreciation rights and performance awards. Our compensation committee has a preference for grants of stock-based incentive awards (RSUs, restricted stock and options) as compared with cash incentive awards based on the belief that they better promote retention of key employees through the continuing, long-term nature of an equity investment. It is the policy of our compensation committee that stock options be awarded with an exercise price equal to fair market value on the date of grant, typically measured by reference to the closing price on the grant date.

Maffei Performance-based Equity Awards . In December 2014, we entered into the Maffei Employment Agreement which provides Mr. Maffei with the opportunity to earn annual equity incentive awards during the employment term. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—Gregory B. Maffei" for additional information about the annual awards to be provided under the Maffei Employment Agreement. The Maffei Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Maffei was entitled to receive from our company and Liberty Interactive in 2016 a combined target value equity award of $17 million and contemplates that the equity awards would be structured to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code. The $17 million equity award would be divided between our company and Liberty Interactive according to relative market capitalization. Mr. Maffei is also eligible to receive above-target equity awards from our company and Liberty Interactive equaling in the aggregate $8.5 million (split by relative market capitalization) that would be granted at the end of the performance period in each compensation committee's sole discretion. The Maffei Employment Agreement also sets forth provisions for determining and establishing any performance criteria for equity awards.

In 2016, our compensation committee, with the consent of Mr. Maffei, elected to waive for purposes of the 2016 equity awards the provisions of the Maffei Employment Agreement that set forth the process for establishing the annual performance criteria. Instead, our compensation committee decided to grant a combination of time-vested stock options and performance-based RSUs. Our compensation committee believes that time-vested stock options are consistent with its philosophy of aligning the interests of the named executive officers with those of our stockholders, with the ultimate goal of appropriately motivating our executives to increase long-term stockholder value. In addition, our compensation committee believed that Mr. Maffei's RSU grants should be subject to performance metrics that incentivize and reward Mr. Maffei for successful completion of our company's strategic initiatives. The parties did not amend the Maffei Employment Agreement and made no decision as to whether to formalize the process for future grants. As a result, our compensation committee granted to Mr. Maffei 714,251 LMCK time-vested options and 39,038 LMCK performance-based RSUs (the Maffei LMCK RSUs ), in each case relating to our then-existing Series C common stock ( LMCK ). These awards were later converted into options and RSUs of our company's three series C common stocks in the reclassification (as defined below) in April 2016. The stock options had a grant date of March 29, 2016, had a term of seven years, and had a base price of $37.76, which was the closing price of LMCK on the grant date. In addition, the stock options vested in full on December 31, 2016, and were subject to other applicable terms and conditions for option grants as set forth in the Maffei Employment Agreement. Our compensation committee also granted to Mr. Maffei the Maffei LMCK RSUs on March 29, 2016. The Maffei LMCK RSUs would vest only upon attainment of the performance objectives described below.

Our compensation committee adopted an annual, performance-based program for payment of the Maffei LMCK RSUs, which was structured to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code. None of the Maffei LMCK RSUs would vest unless a minimum corporate performance was achieved: the combined

Adjusted OIBDA (or equivalent measure) of Sirius XM and Braves Holdings, and a proportionate share of the equivalent measure of Adjusted OIBDA of Live Nation, for the year ended December 31, 2016 was required to exceed $500 million (the Maffei RSU Threshold ). If the Maffei RSU Threshold were met, the notional pool for payment of the Maffei LMCK RSUs would be funded with 0.2% of the amount by which such combined Adjusted OIBDA exceeded $500 million (the Maffei RSU pool ). A maximum payout equal to 1.5 times the target number of Maffei LMCK RSUs or $2.856 million initial grant value was established.

For purposes of the Maffei RSU pool, Adjusted OIBDA was defined in the same manner as the cash performance bonus program. See "—Elements of 2016 Executive Compensation—2016 Performance-based Bonuses" above. Assuming the Maffei RSU Threshold of $500 million was met and the Maffei RSU pool was funded, the amount earned would be subject to reduction from the maximum amount payable by our compensation committee based on subjective performance criteria. After review of our company's 2016 Adjusted OIBDA results, our compensation committee determined and certified that the maximum Maffei LMCK RSUs could be paid to Mr. Maffei. Our compensation committee then determined to review Mr. Maffei's performance to determine what portion of the maximum award would be paid. Our compensation committee reviewed Mr. Maffei's performance based on his corporate development activity, financial engineering/restructuring success, executive development efforts and industry and investor relations activities. After considering Mr. Maffei's performance in these areas as well as his performance in achieving the metrics under the cash performance bonus program, our compensation committee determined to vest 100% of the previously issued Maffei LMCK RSUs. In addition, on March 30, 2017, our compensation committee approved, based on the same criteria as discussed above, the grant to Mr. Maffei of an additional $1 million of company stock awards as an above target award as permitted by the Maffei Employment Agreement. Pursuant to his right to do so under the Maffei Employment Agreement, Mr. Maffei elected to receive this grant as follows: 21,019 FWONK RSUs, 22,465 LSXMK stock options with a base price equal to the closing price of LSXMK on the grant date, and 15,283 BATRK stock options with a base price equal to the closing price of BATRK on the grant date. The LSXMK options are scheduled to be granted in May 2017 and the BATRK options were granted on March 30, 2017, with a base price of $23.51. The FWONK RSUs were granted on March 30, 2017. The stock options have a term of seven years. All of the above target awards were, or in the case of the LSXMK options will be, fully vested on the grant date.

Multiyear Stock Options . Consistent with its previous practices, our compensation committee has made larger stock option grants (equaling approximately four to five years' value of the named executive officer's annual grants) that vest between four and five and three-quarters years after grant, rather than making annual grants over the same period. These multiyear grants provide for back-end weighted vesting and generally expire seven to ten years after grant to encourage executives to remain with the company over the long-term and to better align their interests with those of the stockholders. Our compensation committee made such an award to Mr. Maffei in connection with the execution of the Maffei Employment Agreement. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—Gregory B. Maffei" below. Also, in March 2015, our compensation committee granted to each of Messrs. Carleton, Rosenthaler and Shean multiyear stock options that equaled the value of the named executive officer's annual grants for the period from January 1, 2016 through December 31, 2020. See "Summary Compensation Table" below. Also, Mr. Baer received a multi-year stock option award in June 2016 in connection with entering into the 2016 Baer Employment Agreement. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—Richard N. Baer—2016 Term Options" below. Mr. Baer's grant equaled the value of his annual grants for the period from January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2020. Mr. Malone does not participate in the equity award program and as a result did not receive a multiyear stock option award.

Annual Performance Awards . Consistent with our practice since December 2014 of granting a combination of multiyear stock options and annual performance awards to senior officers, our compensation committee granted annual performance RSUs to Messrs. Carleton, Rosenthaler and Shean in March 2016. Our compensation committee granted to Messrs. Carleton, Rosenthaler and Shean, 15,987 LMCK performance-based RSUs on March 29, 2016 (the Chief LMCK RSUs ). These awards were later converted into RSUs of our company's three series C common stocks in the reclassification in April 2016. The Chief LMCK RSUs would vest only upon attainment of the performance objectives described below.

Our compensation committee adopted an annual, performance-based program for payment of the Chief LMCK RSUs, which was structured to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code. None of the Chief LMCK RSUs would vest unless a minimum corporate performance was achieved: the combined Adjusted OIBDA (or equivalent measure) of Sirius XM and Braves Holdings, and a proportionate share of the equivalent measure of Adjusted OIBDA of Live Nation, for the year ended December 31, 2016 was required to exceed $500 million (the Chief Threshold ). If the Chief Threshold were met, the notional pool for payment of the Chief LMCK RSUs would be funded with 0.3% of the amount by which such combined Adjusted OIBDA exceeded $500 million (the Chief RSU pool ). If the Chief RSU pool was not funded so that the maximum awards could be paid to all participants, each participant's maximum award would be reduced pro rata. The maximum payout set for each of Messrs. Carleton, Rosenthaler and Shean was $1.176 million of initial grant value of Chief LMCK RSUs.

For purposes of the Chief RSU pool, Adjusted OIBDA was defined in the same manner as the performance cash bonus program. See "—Elements of 2016 Executive Compensation—2016 Performance-based Bonuses". Assuming the Chief Threshold of $500 million was met and the Chief RSU pool was fully funded, the amount earned would be subject to reduction from the maximum amount payable by our compensation committee based on subjective performance criteria. After review of our company's 2016 Adjusted OIBDA results, our compensation committee determined and certified that the maximum Chief LMCK RSU awards could be paid to Messrs. Carleton, Rosenthaler and Shean. Our compensation committee then determined to review each named executive officer's performance to determine what portion of the maximum award would be paid. Our compensation committee reviewed Messrs. Carleton, Rosenthaler and Shean's performance and also considered the recommendations from Mr. Maffei. Mr. Maffei recommended that our committee vest 100% of the Chief LMCK RSUs previously granted to each of Messrs. Carleton, Rosenthaler and Shean based on his assessment of their individual performance against the goals established in connection with the performance cash bonus program and his general observation of their leadership and executive performance. Accordingly, our compensation committee determined to reduce the payouts down to the target award levels and then approved vesting all of the Chief LMCK RSUs previously granted to Messrs. Carleton, Rosenthaler and Shean.

Mr. Baer did not receive an annual performance RSU award in 2016 because his prior equity award grants covered the employment period through December 2016. Mr. Malone did not participate in the annual performance RSU program.

In addition, when considering the payout of the Chief LMCK RSUs, our compensation committee determined to grant Mr. Rosenthaler additional 19,331 FWONK stock options with a base price of $33.85, 39,984 LSXMK stock options with a base price of $39.21 and 5,031 BATRK stock options with a base price of $22.96 in recognition of his efforts during 2016, including completing the issuance of our company's tracking stocks and the completion of the Formula One transaction. The stock options were vested at grant on March 20, 2017 and have a term of seven years.

Discretionary RSU Awards . Based on its assessment of Messrs. Carleton, Rosenthaler and Shean's performance during 2015 and to further align Messrs. Carleton, Rosenthaler and Shean's interests with those of the other stockholders and other senior executives, in March 2016, our

compensation committee determined to grant 15,603 RSUs relating to LMCK shares to each of Messrs. Carleton, Rosenthaler and Shean. The LMCK RSUs vested in full on March 21, 2016.

In connection with the rights offering to purchase shares of BATRK that was completed in June 2016 (the rights offering ), all holders of stock options relating to shares of BATRK received a restricted stock award to compensate for the diminution in value of the common stock underlying these stock option awards. These restricted stock awards vested in full on June 28, 2016. For more information regarding these restricted stock awards, please see the "Grants of Plan-Based Awards" table below.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits.

The perquisites and other personal benefits available to our executives (that are not otherwise available to all of our salaried employees, such as matching contributions to the Liberty Media 401(k) Savings Plan and the payment of life insurance premiums) consist of:

Taxable income may be incurred by our executives in connection with their receipt of perquisites and personal benefits. Other than as contemplated by Mr. Malone's employment agreement, we have not provided gross-up payments to our executives in connection with any such taxable income incurred during the past three years.

Aircraft Usage . On occasion, and with the approval of our Chairman or Chief Executive Officer, executives may have family members and other guests accompany them on our corporate aircraft when traveling on business. Under the terms of the employment arrangements with our Chairman and our Chief Executive Officer, our Chairman and our Chief Executive Officer and their guests may use the corporate aircraft for non-business purposes subject to specified limitations.

Pursuant to a February 5, 2013 letter agreement between us and Mr. Maffei, Mr. Maffei was entitled to 120 hours per year of personal flight time through the first to occur of (i) the termination of his employment, subject to any continued right to use the corporate aircraft as described below or pursuant to the terms of his employment arrangement in effect at the time of the termination or (ii) the cessation of ownership or lease of corporate aircraft. Effective November 11, 2015, pursuant to a letter agreement between us and Mr. Maffei of the same date, Mr. Maffei is entitled to 30 additional hours per year of personal flight time if he reimburses us for such usage through the first to occur of (i) the termination of his employment or (ii) the cessation of ownership or lease of corporate aircraft. Under the Maffei Employment Agreement, if Mr. Maffei's employment had been terminated due to disability, for good reason or without cause, Mr. Maffei would have been entitled to continued use of the company's aircraft under the terms of the February 5, 2013 letter agreement for 12 months after termination of his employment. Mr. Maffei incurs taxable income, calculated in accordance with the Standard Industry Fare Level ( SIFL ) rates, for all personal use of our corporate aircraft under the February 5, 2013 letter agreement. Mr. Maffei incurs taxable income at the SIFL rates minus amounts paid under time sharing agreements with our company for travel pursuant to the November 11, 2015

letter agreement. Flights where there are no passengers on company-owned aircraft were not charged against the 120 hours of personal flight time per year allotted to Mr. Maffei if the flight department determines that the use of a NetJets, Inc. supplied aircraft for a proposed personal flight would be disadvantageous to our company due to (i) use of budgeted hours under the then current Liberty Media fractional ownership contract with NetJets, Inc. or (ii) higher flight cost as compared to the cost of using company owned aircraft.

The cost of Mr. Malone's personal use of our corporate aircraft, calculated in accordance with SIFL, counts toward his $1 million personal expense allowance (described above).

For disclosure purposes, we determine incremental cost using a method that takes into account:

Because the company's aircraft is used primarily for business travel, this methodology excludes fixed costs that do not change based on usage, such as salaries of pilots and crew, purchase or lease costs of aircraft and costs of maintenance and upkeep.

Pursuant to our aircraft time sharing agreements with Liberty Interactive, Starz, Liberty TripAdvisor, Liberty Broadband and Liberty Expedia, each of these companies pays us for any costs, calculated in accordance with Part 91 of the Federal Aviation Regulations, associated with Mr. Malone or Mr. Maffei using our corporate aircraft that are allocable to such company, except that allocations made to Starz, Liberty TripAdvisor, Liberty Broadband or Liberty Expedia may only be made for corporate aircraft use relating to such company's business matters, while allocations made to Liberty Interactive relate to such company's business matters along with approved personal use of our aircraft. Pursuant to our aircraft time sharing agreements with Mr. Maffei, Mr. Maffei reimburses us for costs associated with his personal use of our corporate aircraft under the November 11, 2015 letter agreement, and such costs include the expenses listed above, insurance obtained for the specific flight and an additional charge equal to 100% of the aircraft fuel and oil expenses for the specific flight.

For purposes of determining an executive's taxable income, personal use of our aircraft is valued using a method based on SIFL rates, as published by the Treasury Department. The amount determined using the SIFL rates is typically lower than the amount determined using the incremental cost method. Under the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, the amount we may deduct for a purely personal flight is limited to the amount included in the taxable income of the executives who took the flight. Also, the deductibility of any non-business use will be limited by Section 162(m) of the Code to the extent that the named executive officer's compensation that is subject to that limitation exceeds $1 million. See "—Deductibility of Executive Compensation" below.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Deferred Compensation

To help accommodate the tax and estate planning objectives of the named executive officers, as well as other executives with the title of Vice President and above, our board of directors assumed the previously established Liberty Media Corporation 2006 Deferred Compensation Plan (as amended and restated effective January 1, 2016) in connection with the LMC Spin-Off. Under that plan and for 2016, participants could elect to defer up to 50% of their base salaries and up to 100% of their cash performance bonuses that were allocable to our company. Compensation deferred under the plan that

otherwise would have been received prior to 2015 would earn interest income at the rate of 9% per annum, compounded quarterly, for the period of the deferral. Compensation deferred under the plan that otherwise would have been received on or after January 1, 2015 will earn interest income at the prime rate of interest (as determined in the Wall Street Journal as of the first business day of November of the year prior to each plan year) plus 3% per annum, compounded quarterly, for the period of the deferral, and for 2016, this rate was 6.25%. Effective January 1, 2017, amounts deferred under the plan will earn interest income at the 10-year Treasury rate plus 4.5%, as determined as of the first business day of November of the year prior to each plan year. In the LMC Spin-Off, we assumed the plan and all outstanding obligations thereunder. Since Old LMC's split-off from Liberty Interactive (the Old LMC Split-Off ) in 2011, the named executive officers may not participate in the plan with respect to any portion of their cash performance bonuses paid by Liberty Interactive. In addition, Mr. Carleton and Mr. Shean each had a deferral election in place for his 2011 performance-based bonus, with respect to which Liberty Interactive will remain responsible for the payment of such deferred amount and all deferred interest thereon going forward. For more information on this plan and the amendments that became effective January 1, 2016, see "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—2006 Deferred Compensation Plan" and the "—Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans" table below.

We provide Mr. Malone with certain deferred compensation arrangements that were entered into by our predecessors and assumed by us in connection with the various restructurings that we have undergone. Beginning in February 2009, Mr. Malone began receiving accelerated payments under those deferred compensation arrangements. For more information on these arrangements, see "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—John C. Malone" below.

In March 2017, our compensation committee determined to waive again the process required by the Maffei Employment Agreement to set performance criteria for Mr. Maffei's 2017 annual performance awards. Our compensation committee determined to implement the same general process as used in 2016. In addition, the parties are currently considering whether to formalize this process for future annual performance awards but have not determined to do so at this time.

In developing the compensation packages for the named executive officers, the deductibility of executive compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code is considered. That provision prohibits the deduction of compensation of more than $1 million paid to certain executives, subject to certain exceptions. One exception is for performance-based compensation, including stock options granted by our predecessors under their incentive plans (and assumed by us to the extent applicable under the Liberty Media Corporation Transitional Stock Adjustment Plan) or to be granted under the 2013 incentive plan. Our compensation committee has not adopted a policy requiring all compensation to be deductible under Section 162(m) of the Code, in order to maintain flexibility in making compensation decisions. Portions of the compensation we pay to certain of the named executive officers may not be deductible due to the application of Section 162(m) of the Code.

In those instances where we grant cash or equity-based incentive compensation, we include in the related agreement with the executive a right, in favor of our company, to require the executive to repay or return to the company any cash, stock or other incentive compensation (including proceeds from the disposition of shares received upon exercise of options or stock appreciation rights). That right will arise if (1) a material restatement of any of our financial statements is required and (2) in the reasonable judgment of our compensation committee, (A) such restatement is due to material

noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under applicable securities laws and (B) such noncompliance is a result of misconduct on the part of the executive. In determining the amount of such repayment or return, our compensation committee may take into account, among other factors it deems relevant, the extent to which the market value of the applicable series of our common stock was affected by the errors giving rise to the restatement. The cash, stock or other compensation that we may require the executive to repay or return must have been received by the executive during the 12-month period beginning on the date of the first public issuance or the filing with the SEC, whichever occurs earlier, of the financial statement requiring restatement. The compensation required to be repaid or returned will include (1) cash or company stock received by the executive (A) upon the exercise during that 12-month period of any stock appreciation right held by the executive or (B) upon the payment during that 12-month period of any incentive compensation, the value of which is determined by reference to the value of company stock, and (2) any proceeds received by the executive from the disposition during that 12-month period of company stock received by the executive upon the exercise, vesting or payment during that 12-month period of any award of equity-based incentive compensation.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Executive Compensation Arrangements

In connection with the merger of TCI and AT&T in 1999, an employment agreement between John C. Malone and TCI was assigned to a predecessor of Liberty Interactive. Mr. Malone's employment agreement and his deferred compensation arrangements, as described below, were assigned to Old LMC in connection with the Old LMC Split-Off and later to our company in connection with the LMC Spin-Off. The term of Mr. Malone's employment agreement is extended daily so that the remainder of the employment term is five years. The employment agreement was amended in June 1999 to provide for, among other things, an annual salary of $2,600 (which was increased to $3,900 in 2014), subject to increase with board approval. The employment agreement was amended in 2003 to provide for payment or reimbursement of personal expenses, including professional fees and other expenses incurred by Mr. Malone for estate, tax planning and other services, and for personal use of corporate aircraft and flight crew. The aggregate amount of such payments or reimbursements and the value of his personal use of corporate aircraft was originally limited to $500,000 per year but increased to $1 million effective January 1, 2007 by the Liberty Interactive compensation committee. Although the "Summary Compensation Table" table above reflects the portion of the aggregate incremental cost of Mr. Malone's personal use of our corporate aircraft attributable to our company, the value of his aircraft use for purposes of his employment agreement is determined in accordance with SIFL, which aggregated $170,821 for use of the aircraft by our company and Liberty Interactive during the year ended December 31, 2016. Liberty Interactive is allocated, and reimburses us for, portions of the other components of the payments/reimbursements to Mr. Malone described above.

In December 2008, the Liberty Interactive compensation committee determined to modify Mr. Malone's employment arrangements to permit Mr. Malone to begin receiving fixed monthly payments in 2009, in advance of a termination event, in satisfaction of its obligations to him under a 1993 deferred compensation arrangement, a 1982 deferred compensation arrangement and an installment severance plan, in each case, entered into with him by Liberty Interactive's predecessors (and which had been assumed by Liberty Interactive). At the time of the amendment, the amounts owed to Mr. Malone under these arrangements aggregated approximately $2.4 million, $20 million and $39 million, respectively. As a result of these modifications, Mr. Malone receives 240 equal monthly installments, which commenced February 2009, of: (1) approximately $20,000 under the 1993 deferred compensation arrangement, (2) approximately $237,000 under the 1982 deferred compensation arrangement and (3) approximately $164,000 under the installment severance plan. Interest ceased to accrue under the installment severance plan once these payments began; however, interest continues to accrue on the 1993 deferred compensation arrangement at a rate of 8% per annum and on the 1982 deferred compensation arrangement at a rate of 13% per annum. In connection with the LMC Spin-Off, we assumed these payment obligations from Old LMC, who had in turn assumed them from Liberty Interactive in the Old LMC Split-Off.

Under the terms of Mr. Malone's employment agreement, he is entitled to receive upon the termination of his employment at our election for any reason (other than for death or "cause"), a lump sum equal to his salary for a period of five full years following termination (calculated on the basis of $3,900 per annum, the lump sum severance payment ). As described above, in connection with the LMC

Spin-Off, we assumed Mr. Malone's employment agreement and all outstanding obligations thereunder from Old LMC (which were previously assumed by Old LMC in the Old LMC Split-Off), and Liberty Interactive will reimburse us for its allocated portion of any such lump sum severance payments made thereunder.

For a description of the effect of any termination event or a change in control of our company on his employment agreement, see "—Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control" below.

December 2014 Employment Arrangement . On December 24, 2014, our compensation committee approved a new compensation arrangement with Mr. Maffei. The arrangement provides for a five year employment term beginning January 1, 2015 and ending December 31, 2019, with an annual base salary of $960,750, increasing annually by 5% of the prior year's base salary, and an annual target cash bonus equal to 250% of the applicable year's base salary. The arrangement also provides Mr. Maffei with the opportunity to earn annual performance-based equity incentive awards during the employment term, as described in more detail below. In connection with the approval of his compensation arrangement, Mr. Maffei was granted the Term Options described below. Mr. Maffei's compensation arrangement was memorialized in the Maffei Employment Agreement executed on December 29, 2014.

The arrangement provides that, in the event Mr. Maffei is terminated for cause (as defined in the Maffei Employment Agreement) he will be entitled to only his accrued base salary and any amounts due under applicable law. If Mr. Maffei is terminated by Liberty Media without cause or if Mr. Maffei terminates his employment for good reason (as defined in the Maffei Employment Agreement), he is entitled to (i) his accrued base salary, (ii) his accrued but unpaid bonus and any amounts due under applicable law (the Standard Entitlements ), (iii) a severance payment of 1.5 times his base salary during the year of his termination to be paid in equal installments over 18 months, (iv) a payment equal to $11,750,000 pro rated based upon the elapsed number of days in the calendar year of termination (including the date of termination), with (subject to certain exceptions) up to 25% of such amount payable in shares of our common stock, at our discretion and with the remainder of such amount paid in cash (the Pro Rated Amount ), (v) a payment equal to $17,500,000, with (subject to certain exceptions) up to 25% of such amount payable in shares of our common stock at our discretion and with the remainder of such amount paid in cash (the Un-Pro Rated Amount ), and (vi) continued use of certain services and perquisites provided by our company, including continued aircraft benefits consistent with those provided to him during the period of his employment (the Services ). If Mr. Maffei terminates his employment without good reason (as defined in the Maffei Employment Agreement), he will be entitled to the Standard Entitlements and a payment of the Pro Rated Amount. Lastly, in the case of Mr. Maffei's death or disability, he is entitled to the Standard Entitlements, a payment of 1.5 times his base salary during the year of his termination, payments of the Pro Rated Amount and the Un-Pro Rated Amount, and, only in the case of his termination for disability, the Services. The Maffei Employment Agreement also contains other customary terms and conditions.

Term Options . Also on December 24, 2014, in connection with the approval of his compensation arrangement, Mr. Maffei received a one-time grant of 3,298,724 options to purchase shares of LMCK (the Term Options ), which had an exercise price of $34.04 per share. Mr. Maffei's Term Options have been adjusted in connection with the April 2016 reclassification and exchange of our common stock into the Liberty SiriusXM common stock, the Liberty Braves common stock and the Liberty Formula One common stock (the reclassification ) and the June 2016 rights offering with respect to BATRK shares, and as a result, the Term Options now relate to shares of LSXMK, BATRK and FWONK. One-half of the Term Options will vest on the fourth anniversary of the grant date with the remaining Term Options vesting on the fifth anniversary of the grant date, in each case, subject to Mr. Maffei being employed on the applicable vesting date. The Term Options have a term of seven years.

Upon a change in control (as defined in the Maffei Employment Agreement) prior to Mr. Maffei's termination or in the event of Mr. Maffei's termination for death or disability, all of his unvested Term Options will become exercisable. If Mr. Maffei is terminated for cause, all of his unvested Term Options will terminate immediately. If Mr. Maffei is terminated by our company without cause or if he terminates his employment for good reason (as defined in the Maffei Employment Agreement), then each unvested tranche of each type of Term Options will vest pro rata based on the number of days elapsed in the vesting period for such tranche since the grant date plus 548 calendar days; however, in the event (i) all members of the Malone Group (as defined in the Maffei Employment Agreement) cease to beneficially own our company's securities representing at least 20% of our company's voting power, (ii) within 90 to 210 days of clause (i) Mr. Maffei's employment is terminated by our company without cause or by Mr. Maffei for good reason and (iii) at the time of clause (i) Mr. Maffei does not beneficially own our company's securities representing at least 20% of our company's voting power, then all unvested Term Options will vest in full as of the date of Mr. Maffei's termination. If Mr. Maffei terminates his employment without good reason, then a portion of each unvested tranche of each type of Term Options will vest pro rata based on the number of days elapsed in the vesting period for such tranche since the grant date. In the event of a change in control prior to Mr. Maffei's termination, all of the Term Options will remain exercisable until the end of the term. If Mr. Maffei is terminated for cause prior to December 31, 2019 (without a prior change in control occurring), then all vested Term Options will expire on the 90th day following such termination. In all other events of termination or if Mr. Maffei has not been terminated prior to December 31, 2019, all vested Term Options will expire at the end of the term.

Annual Awards . Mr. Maffei will receive annual grants of options to purchase shares of LSXMK, BATRK and FWONK with a term of seven years (the Annual Options ) and RSUs with respect to LSXMK, BATRK and FWONK (the Annual RSUs and together with the Annual Options, the Annual Awards ). For a description of Mr. Maffei's target Annual Awards, see "—Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Elements of 2016 Executive Compensation—Equity Incentive Compensation—Maffei Performance-based Equity Awards." Pursuant to the Maffei Employment Agreement, Mr. Maffei will receive upfront grants of the Annual Awards and awards from Liberty Interactive in the following combined target amounts: $16 million for calendar year 2015, $17 million for calendar year 2016, $18 million for calendar year 2017, $19 million for calendar year 2018 and $20 million for calendar year 2019. The combined target amounts will be allocated between Liberty Interactive and our company based on relative market capitalization. In our compensation committee's sole discretion, Mr. Maffei is also eligible to receive additional awards each year from Liberty Media up to a maximum of 50% of the Liberty Media target award grant amount for such year as an above-target award.

Upon Mr. Maffei's termination for any reason, his unvested Annual Awards (including any dividend equivalents related to any unvested Annual RSUs) will terminate at the close of business on the day of the separation, except that, in the case of performance-based Annual RSUs, if Mr. Maffei remains employed through the end of the relevant grant year but his termination occurs prior to the date as of which any performance criteria has been determined to have been met or not with respect to the Annual RSUs relating to such grant year, such Annual RSUs will remain outstanding until such determination date and become vested to the extent determined by the compensation committee. Upon a change in control prior to Mr. Maffei's termination, all vested Annual Options (and any Annual Options that vest after such change in control) will terminate at the expiration of the original term. If Mr. Maffei is terminated by our company for cause (without a prior change in control) prior to December 31, 2019, all vested Annual Options will terminate at the close of business on the 90th day following the termination. In all other events of termination or if Mr. Maffei has not been terminated prior to December 31, 2019, all vested Annual Options will terminate at the expiration of the original term.

We are party to a February 5, 2013 letter agreement with Mr. Maffei, pursuant to which he was entitled to personal use of corporate aircraft not to exceed 120 hours of flight time per year through the first to occur of (i) the termination of his employment, subject to any continued right to use the corporate aircraft as described below or pursuant to the terms of his employment arrangement in effect at the time of the termination or (ii) the cessation of ownership or lease of corporate aircraft. Effective November 11, 2015, pursuant to a letter agreement between us and Mr. Maffei of the same date, Mr. Maffei is entitled to 30 additional hours per year of personal flight time if he reimburses us for such usage through the first to occur of (i) the termination of his employment or (ii) the cessation of ownership or lease of corporate aircraft. Mr. Maffei will continue to incur taxable income, calculated in accordance with SIFL, for all personal use of our corporate aircraft under the February 5, 2013 letter agreement. Mr. Maffei incurs taxable income at the SIFL rates minus amounts paid under time sharing agreements with our company for travel pursuant to the November 11, 2015 letter agreement. Pursuant to our aircraft time sharing agreements with Liberty Interactive, Starz, Liberty TripAdvisor, Liberty Broadband and Liberty Expedia, such entities pay us for any costs, calculated in accordance with Part 91 of the Federal Aviation Regulations, associated with Mr. Maffei using our corporate aircraft that are allocable to these entities. Liberty Interactive, Starz, Liberty TripAdvisor, Liberty Broadband and Liberty Expedia reimburse us for Mr. Maffei's use of our corporate aircraft for such entity's business, as the case may be, while Liberty Interactive also reimburses us for Mr. Maffei's personal use of our corporate aircraft. Pursuant to our aircraft time sharing agreements with Mr. Maffei, Mr. Maffei reimburses us for costs associated with his up to 30 hours of personal use of our corporate aircraft under the November 11, 2015 letter agreement. Flights where there are no passengers on company-owned aircraft are not charged against the 120 hours of personal flight time per year allotted to Mr. Maffei if the flight department determines that the use of a NetJets, Inc. supplied aircraft for a proposed personal flight would be disadvantageous to our company due to (i) use of budgeted hours under the then current Liberty Media fractional ownership contract with NetJets, Inc. or (ii) higher flight cost as compared to the cost of using company owned aircraft.

2012 Employment Agreement. On November 7, 2012, Old LMC entered into an executive employment agreement (the 2012 Employment Agreement ), effective October 31, 2012, with Richard N. Baer. Mr. Baer served as an independent contractor providing consulting services to Old LMC and Liberty Interactive from October 31, 2012 until the start of his employment as Senior Vice President and General Counsel with the companies on January 1, 2013. The 2012 Employment Agreement was assigned to Liberty Media in connection with the LMC Spin-Off. The agreement provides for, among other things, a four year term ending on December 31, 2016, with an annual base salary of $825,000, subject to adjustments at Liberty Media's discretion, and an annual discretionary bonus beginning in the calendar year 2013. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Mr. Baer's target bonus for each year was 100% of his annual base salary for that year, and in no event would his bonus for any year be greater than two times his annual base salary. Mr. Baer was also entitled to certain benefits and perquisites available to Liberty Media's senior executives. Pursuant to the agreement, on November 8, 2012, as part of the consideration for his services under the 2012 Employment Agreement, Mr. Baer was granted a combination of options and restricted shares. These options (the 2012 Term Options ) and restricted shares were fully vested as of December 31, 2016 and December 15, 2016, respectively. The options have a term of ten years. The other terms and conditions of Mr. Baer's options and restricted shares, including acceleration and continued exercisability in connection with certain terminations of employment, are described in the applicable award agreements.

The 2012 Employment Agreement governs any termination of Mr. Baer's employment that occurs prior to January 1, 2017. The 2012 Employment Agreement provides that, in the event Mr. Baer is terminated for cause (as defined in the 2012 Employment Agreement), he will be entitled to his

accrued but unpaid base salary through the date of termination and any unpaid expenses. If, however, Mr. Baer terminates his employment for good reason (as defined in the 2012 Employment Agreement) or if his employment is terminated without cause (as defined in the 2012 Employment Agreement), then he is entitled to receive his accrued but unpaid base salary, any unpaid expenses, any accrued but unpaid bonus from the prior year and a severance payment of two times his annual base salary at the time of termination. If Mr. Baer terminates his employment without good reason, he is entitled to receive any accrued but unpaid base salary, any accrued but unpaid bonus from the prior year and any unpaid expenses. In the case of Mr. Baer's death or disability (as defined in the 2012 Employment Agreement), such employment agreement provides for the right for his estate or him, as applicable, to receive any accrued but unpaid base salary, any unpaid expenses, any accrued but unpaid bonus from the prior year and a severance payment of two times his annual base salary at the time of death or disability (as defined in the 2012 Employment Agreement). As a condition to Mr. Baer's receipt of any severance payments as a result of his termination, as well as any acceleration of vesting or extension of exercise periods described in the grant agreements for the equity grants, Mr. Baer must execute a severance agreement and release in favor of Liberty Media in accordance with the procedures set forth in the 2012 Employment Agreement.

Although not a party to the 2012 Employment Agreement, Liberty Interactive is obligated to reimburse Liberty Media for its allocable portion of any payments made to Mr. Baer thereunder (other than payments relating to equity awards which are directly settled with the applicable issuer) pursuant to the LIC Services Agreement.

2016 Baer Employment Agreement . On May 24, 2016, the compensation committee of our company approved a new compensation arrangement with Mr. Baer, which was memorialized in a definitive employment agreement, dated effective as of August 18, 2016 (the 2016 Baer Employment Agreement ), between our company and Mr. Baer. The arrangement provides for a four year employment term beginning January 1, 2017 and ending December 31, 2020 (the employment period ) during which Mr. Baer will continue to serve as Chief Legal Officer of our company, Liberty Interactive, Liberty Broadband and Liberty TripAdvisor. Mr. Baer's 2016 annual base salary of $901,500 and annual target cash bonus of 100% of base salary under the 2012 Employment Agreement with our company remain unchanged under the new compensation arrangement. The arrangement also provides Mr. Baer with the opportunity to earn annual performance-based equity incentive awards from our company and Liberty Interactive during the employment term, as described in more detail below. In connection with the approval of his compensation arrangement, the compensation committee granted options to Mr. Baer with respect to LSXMK, BATRK and FWONK (together, the 2016 Term Options ), each as described in more detail below.

The 2016 Baer Employment Agreement governs any termination of Mr. Baer's employment that occurs on or after January 1, 2017 during the term of such agreement. The 2016 Baer Employment Agreement provides that, in the event Mr. Baer is terminated for cause (as defined in the 2016 Baer Employment Agreement), he will be entitled to his accrued but unpaid base salary through the date of termination, any unpaid expenses and other amounts required to be paid by law. In addition, all unexercised 2016 Term Options, whether vested or unvested, will be forfeited.

If, however, Mr. Baer terminates his employment for good reason (as defined in the 2016 Baer Employment Agreement) or if his employment is terminated without cause (as defined in the 2016 Baer Employment Agreement), then he is entitled to receive his (i) accrued but unpaid base salary, (ii) any unpaid expenses and other amounts required to be paid by law, (iii) a lump sum payment of any declared but unpaid bonus from the prior year and (iv) if such termination occurs (x) between January 1, 2017 and March 31, 2018, a lump sum cash payment of $5.3 million, (y) between April 1, 2018 and March 31, 2019, a lump sum cash payment of $3.5 million or (z) between April 1, 2019 and the close of business on December 31, 2020, a lump sum cash payment of $1.9 million.

termination ), (a) between January 1, 2017 and December 31, 2019, he will vest in 75% of the original number of 2016 Term Options (less any options that have previously vested) or (b) during 2020, the unvested portion of his 2016 Term Options will vest in full, in each case on the date of his termination, and such options will remain exercisable for the period specified in the applicable award agreement. The award agreements for Mr. Baer's annual grants of Performance RSUs (as described below) will provide that if a protected termination occurs during the employment period, any Performance RSUs that are outstanding and unvested on the termination date will remain outstanding until the date that our compensation committee determines whether the performance criteria applicable to such Performance RSUs were met and will vest to the extent determined by the committee on date of such determination.

If Mr. Baer terminates his employment without good reason (as defined in the 2016 Baer Employment Agreement), he is entitled to receive any accrued but unpaid base salary, any declared but unpaid bonus from the prior year and any unpaid expenses and other amounts required to be paid by law. In addition, Mr. Baer will forfeit any 2016 Term Options and Performance RSUs that are unvested on the date of such termination. Any vested 2016 Term Options will remain exercisable for 90 days after Mr. Baer's termination without good reason, or, if such termination occurs after December 31, 2020, for the remainder of the term of such options.

In the case of Mr. Baer's death or disability (as defined in the 2016 Baer Employment Agreement), such employment agreement provides for the right for his estate or him, as applicable, to receive any accrued but unpaid base salary, any unpaid expenses and other amounts required to be paid by law, any declared but unpaid bonus from the prior year and a lump sum cash payment of $1.9 million. In addition, the 2016 Term Options will vest in full and remain exercisable for a one year period following his death or, if such termination occurs after December 31, 2020, for the remainder of the term of such options. Any outstanding but unvested Performance RSUs will vest immediately in the event of Mr. Baer's death or disability to the extent not already vested as of the date of his termination due to death or disability.

As a condition to Mr. Baer's receipt of any severance payments as a result of his termination, as well as any acceleration of vesting or extension of exercise periods described in the grant agreements for the equity grants, Mr. Baer must execute a severance agreement and release in favor of Liberty Media in accordance with the procedures set forth in the 2016 Baer Employment Agreement.

Although not a party to the 2016 Baer Employment Agreement, Liberty Interactive is obligated to reimburse us for its allocable portion of the above payments (other than payments relating to performance bonuses and payments relating to equity awards which are directly settled with the applicable issuer) pursuant to the LIC Services Agreement.

2016 Term Options . On May 24, 2016, in connection with the approval of his compensation arrangement, the compensation committee approved a one-time grant to Mr. Baer of (i) 346,466 options to purchase shares of LSXMK with an exercise price equal to $31.66 per share, (ii) 32,048 options to purchase shares of BATRK with an exercise price equal to $15.11 per share, and (iii) 83,942 options to purchase shares of FWONK with an exercise price equal to $19.11 per share. The exercise prices are equal to the closing price of LSXMK, BATRK and FWONK on June 1, 2016, the grant date for these options. One-half of the 2016 Term Options will vest on December 31, 2019 with the remaining 2016 Term Options vesting on December 31, 2020, in each case, subject to Mr. Baer being employed on the applicable vesting date, and subject to any accelerated vesting upon a termination event. Vesting of the 2016 Term Options will not start until January 1, 2017, and no early acceleration will occur if Mr. Baer is terminated prior to January 1, 2017. The 2016 Term Options expire on December 31, 2023.

Annual Performance-Based Awards . Beginning in 2017, Mr. Baer will receive annual grants of performance-based RSUs with respect to LSXMK, BATRK and FWONK (the Performance RSUs ).

The combined annual target value of the Performance RSUs and the performance-based RSUs issued by Liberty Interactive will be $1.875 million. The compensation committee will establish performance metrics with respect to each grant of Performance RSUs that will determine, in the compensation committee's sole discretion, the extent to which such grant will vest.

The 2013 incentive plan is administered by the compensation committee of our board of directors. The compensation committee has full power and authority to grant eligible persons the awards described below and to determine the terms and conditions under which any awards are made. The 2013 incentive plan is designed to provide additional remuneration to certain employees and independent contractors for exceptional service and to encourage their investment in our company. Our compensation committee may grant non-qualified stock options, SARs, restricted shares, RSUs, cash awards, performance awards or any combination of the foregoing under the 2013 incentive plan (collectively, awards ).

The maximum number of shares of our common stock with respect to which awards may be issued under the 2013 incentive plan is 98,774,000, subject to anti-dilution and other adjustment provisions of the 2013 incentive plan. With limited exceptions, under the 2013 incentive plan, no person may be granted in any calendar year awards covering more than 32,400,000 shares of our common stock (subject to anti-dilution and other adjustment provisions of the 2013 incentive plan) nor may any person receive under the 2013 incentive plan payment for cash awards during any calendar year in excess of $10 million. Shares of our common stock issuable pursuant to awards made under the 2013 incentive plan are made available from either authorized but unissued shares or shares that have been issued but reacquired by our company. The 2013 incentive plan has a five year term.

In connection with the LMC Spin-Off, our company's board of directors adopted the Liberty Media Corporation Transitional Stock Adjustment Plan (the TSAP , and together with the 2013 incentive plan, the existing incentive plans ). The TSAP governs the terms and conditions of equity incentive awards with respect to our common stock issued in connection with adjustments made to equity incentive awards relating to Old LMC's common stock that were granted prior to the LMC Spin-Off. No further grants are permitted under the TSAP.

Our company maintains the Liberty Media Corporation 2006 Deferred Compensation Plan (as amended and restated, the 2006 deferred compensation plan ), under which officers at the level of Vice President and above were eligible to elect to defer up to 50% of such officer's annual base salary and cash performance bonus for 2015. These deferral elections must be made in advance of certain deadlines and may include (1) the selection of a payment date, which generally may not be later than 30 years from the end of the year in which the applicable compensation is initially deferred, and (2) the form of distribution, such as a lump-sum payment or substantially equal annual installments over two to five years for elections made prior to January 1, 2016.

In addition to the accelerated distribution events described under "—Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control" below, at the eligible officer's request, if the compensation committee determines that such officer has suffered a financial hardship, it may authorize immediate distribution of amounts deferred under the 2006 deferred compensation plan.

Compensation deferred under the 2006 deferred compensation plan that otherwise would have been received prior to 2015 would earn interest income at the rate of 9% per annum, compounded quarterly, for the period of the deferral. Compensation deferred under the 2006 deferred compensation plan that otherwise would have been received on or after January 1, 2015 will earn interest income at the prime rate of interest (as determined in the Wall Street Journal as of the first business day of

November of the year prior to each plan year) plus 3% per annum, compounded quarterly, for the period of the deferral, and for 2016, this rate was 6.25%. Effective January 1, 2017, amounts deferred under the 2006 deferred compensation plan will earn interest income at the 10-year Treasury rate plus 4.5%, as determined as of the first business day of November of the year prior to each plan year.

The 2006 deferred compensation plan was amended effective January 1, 2016, to reflect the following changes: (A) eligible participants may elect to defer up to 50% of the portion of their base salaries and up to 100% of their cash performance bonuses that are allocable to our company, (B) eligible participants may elect to receive annual installments over two to ten years, rather than two to five years and (C) for amounts deferred on or after January 1, 2015, the compensation committee may not change the applicable interest rate in effect after a change of control has occurred.

Our board of directors reserves the right to terminate the 2006 deferred compensation plan at any time. An optional termination by our board of directors will not result in any distribution acceleration.

(3) As described above in "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—2006 Deferred Compensation Plan," Mr. Shean had a deferral election in place under the 2006 deferred compensation plan following the Old LMC Split-Off with respect to $32,336, which represents 10% of a portion of his 2011 performance-based bonus that was allocable to and paid by Liberty Interactive (the 2011 deferral ). Liberty Interactive will continue to be responsible for payment of the 2011 deferral and for the payment of interest income at the rate of 9% per annum, compounded quarterly, thereon. In 2015 and 2016, Mr. Shean began receiving installment payments with respect to the 2011 deferral pursuant to his deferral election, and at December 31, 2016, the outstanding balance was $19,350.

Table of Contents

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change-in-Control

The following table sets forth the potential payments to our named executive officers if their employment with Liberty Media had terminated or a change in control had occurred, in each case, as of December 30, 2016, which was the last business day of our last completed fiscal year. In the event of such a termination or change in control, the actual amounts may be different due to various factors. In addition, we may enter into new arrangements or modify these arrangements from time to time.

The amounts provided in the tables are based on the closing market prices on December 30, 2016 for our LSXMA common stock, which was $34.52, our LSXMK common stock, which was $33.92, our BATRA common stock, which was $20.49, our BATRK common stock, which was $20.59, our FWONA common stock, which was $31.35, and our FWONK common stock, which was $31.33. The value of the options shown in the table is based on the spread between the exercise price of the award and the applicable closing market price. The value of the restricted stock and RSUs shown in the table is based on the applicable closing market price and the number of shares and RSUs unvested.

Each of our named executive officers has received awards and payments under the existing incentive plans, and each of our named executive officers is eligible to participate in our deferred compensation plan. Additionally, each of Messrs. Malone, Maffei and Baer is entitled to certain payments and acceleration rights upon termination under his respective employment agreement. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements" above and "Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control—Termination Without Cause or for Good Reason" below.

The circumstances giving rise to these potential payments and a brief summary of the provisions governing their payout are described below and in the footnotes to the table (other than those described under "—Executive Compensation Arrangements," which are incorporated by reference herein):

Voluntary Termination. Each of the named executive officers holds equity awards that were issued under our existing incentive plans. Under these plans and the related award agreements, in the event of a voluntary termination of his employment with our company for any reason, each named executive officer would only have a right to the equity grants that vested prior to his termination date, except that in 2016 Mr. Maffei had certain acceleration rights with respect to one or more of his equity awards upon a voluntary termination. Mr. Maffei would have forfeited his 2016 Annual Awards if he had voluntarily terminated his employment on December 30, 2016. Mr. Baer would have forfeited his 2016 Term Options if he had voluntarily terminated his employment on December 30, 2016. Mr. Baer would also have forfeited the unvested portion of his 2012 Term Options upon a voluntary termination on December 30, 2016. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—Gregory B. Maffei" and "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—Richard N. Baer" above. Mr. Carleton, Mr. Rosenthaler and Mr. Shean are not entitled to any severance payments or other benefits upon a voluntary termination of his employment. The foregoing discussion assumes that the named executive officers voluntarily terminated his respective employment without good reason. See "—Termination Without Cause or for Good Reason" below for a discussion of potential payments and benefits upon a named executive officer's voluntary termination of his employment for good reason.

Under the 2006 deferred compensation plan, we do not have an acceleration right to pay out account balances to the named executive officers upon this type of termination. However, the named executive officer may file at the time of the deferral an election to receive distributions under the 2006 deferred compensation plan upon his separation from service, including a voluntary termination. For purposes of the tabular presentation below, we have assumed that the named executive officer has elected to receive payout of all deferred compensation upon his separation from service, including interest.

Table of Contents

Termination for Cause. All outstanding equity grants constituting options, whether unvested or vested but not yet exercised, and all equity grants constituting unvested RSUs under the existing incentive plans would be forfeited by any named executive officer (other than Mr. Maffei in the case of equity grants constituting vested options or similar rights) who is terminated for "cause." The existing incentive plans, which govern the awards unless there is a different definition in the applicable award agreement, define "cause" as insubordination, dishonesty, incompetence, moral turpitude, other misconduct of any kind and the refusal to perform his duties and responsibilities for any reason other than illness or incapacity; provided that, if such termination is within 12 months after a change in control (as described below), "cause" means a felony conviction for fraud, misappropriation or embezzlement. Mr. Maffei has certain continuing rights to exercise vested options or similar rights following a termination for cause under his employment agreement, and the employment agreement of Mr. Maffei has a definition of cause that is different from the definition under the incentive plans. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements" above.

No immediate distributions under the 2006 deferred compensation plan are permitted as a result of this type of termination (other than pursuant to the compensation committee's right to distribute certain de minimus amounts from an officer's deferred compensation account). However, the named executive officer may file an election at the time of the deferral to receive distributions under the 2006 deferred compensation plan upon his separation from service, including a termination for cause. For purposes of the tabular presentation below, we have assumed that the named executive officer has elected to receive payout of all deferred compensation upon his separation from service, including interest.

Termination Without Cause or for Good Reason. Mr. Malone does not have any unvested equity awards. As of December 30, 2016, Mr. Maffei's unvested equity awards consisted of the Term Options and the 2016 Annual Awards. The Term Options are subject to partial acceleration upon a termination of his employment without cause or for good reason. Mr. Maffei would have forfeited his 2016 Annual Awards upon a termination without cause or for good reason as of December 30, 2016. Each of Mr. Malone and Mr. Maffei is entitled to severance payments and/or other benefits upon a termination of his employment without cause or for good reason. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—John C. Malone" and "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—Gregory B. Maffei" above.

As of December 30, 2016, Mr. Baer's unvested equity awards consisted of his 2016 Term Options and the second tranche of his 2012 Term Options. The 2012 Term Options would have vested in full if Mr. Baer had been terminated without cause or for good reason on December 30, 2016. The 2016 Term Options would have been forfeited if Mr. Baer had been terminated without cause or for good reason on December 30, 2016. Mr. Baer is also entitled under certain circumstances to severance payments and other benefits upon a termination of his employment without cause or for good reason. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—Richard N. Baer."

As of December 30, 2016, Mr. Carleton's, Mr. Rosenthaler's and Mr. Shean's only unvested equity awards were the stock options granted to them on March 4, 2015 and their Chief LMCK RSUs granted to them on March 29, 2016. The standard stock option awards granted to them on March 4, 2015 provide for vesting upon a termination of employment without cause of those options that would have vested during the 12-month period following the termination date if such person had remained an employee. The multi-year awards granted to them on that date provide for vesting upon a termination of employment without cause of those options that would have vested during the 12-month period following the termination date if such person had remained an employee, plus a pro rata portion of the remaining unvested options based on the portion of the vesting period elapsed through the termination date. The Chief LMCK RSUs held by these officers would have been forfeited if the individual had been terminated without cause on December 30, 2016. None of these officers is entitled to any severance pay or other benefits upon a termination without cause.

No immediate distributions under the 2006 deferred compensation plan are permitted as a result of this type of termination (other than pursuant to the compensation committee's right to distribute certain de minimus amounts from an officer's deferred compensation account). However, the named executive officer may file an election at the time of the deferral to receive distributions under the 2006 deferred compensation plan upon his separation from service, including a termination without cause or for good reason. For purposes of the tabular presentation below, we have assumed that the named executive officer has elected to receive payout of all deferred compensation upon separation from service, including interest.

Death. In the event of death of any of the named executive officers, the existing incentive plans and applicable award agreements provide for vesting in full of any outstanding options and the lapse of restrictions on any RSU awards, except that Mr. Maffei would have forfeited his 2016 Annual Awards and Mr. Baer would have forfeited the 2016 Term Options in the event of his respective death as of December 30, 2016. Each of Mr. Malone, Mr. Maffei and Mr. Baer is also entitled to certain payments and other benefits if he dies while employed by our company. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements" above.

No amounts are shown for payments pursuant to life insurance policies, which we make available to all our employees.

Under the 2006 deferred compensation plan, we do not have an acceleration right to pay out account balances to the named executive officers upon this type of termination. However, the named executive officer may file an election at the time of the deferral to receive distributions under the 2006 deferred compensation plan upon his separation from service, including a termination due to death. For purposes of the tabular presentation below, we have assumed that the named executive officer has elected to receive payout of all deferred compensation upon separation from service, including interest.

Disability. If the employment of any of the named executive officers is terminated due to disability, which is defined in the existing incentive plans or applicable award agreements, such plans or agreements provide for vesting in full of any outstanding options and the lapse of restrictions on any RSU awards, except that Mr. Maffei would have forfeited his 2016 Annual Awards, and Mr. Baer would have forfeited his 2016 Term Options in the event of his termination due to disability as of December 30, 2016. Each of Mr. Malone, Mr. Maffei and Mr. Baer is also entitled to certain payments and other benefits upon a termination of his employment due to disability. See "Executive Compensation Arrangements" above.

No amounts are shown for payments pursuant to short-term and long-term disability policies, which we make available to all our employees.

Under the 2006 deferred compensation plan, we do not have an acceleration right to pay out account balances to the named executive officers upon this type of termination. However, the named executive officer may file an election at the time of the deferral to receive distributions under the 2006 deferred compensation plan upon his separation from service, including a termination due to disability. For purposes of the tabular presentation below, we have assumed that the named executive officer has elected to receive payout of all deferred compensation upon separation from service, including interest.

Change in Control. In case of a change in control, the incentive plans provide for vesting in full of any outstanding options and the lapse of restrictions on any RSU awards held by the named executive officers, except that vesting of Mr. Maffei's unvested 2016 Annual Awards would not have been accelerated nor would vesting of Mr. Baer's 2016 Term Options have been accelerated. A change in control is generally defined as:

Table of Contents

In the case of a change in control described in the last bullet point, our compensation committee may determine not to accelerate the existing equity awards of the named executive officers if equivalent awards will be substituted for the existing awards, except that Mr. Maffei's Term Options may also be subject to acceleration upon a change in control, including of the type described in the last bullet point, pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—Gregory B. Maffei" above. For purposes of the tabular presentation below, we have assumed no such determination was made.

The 2006 deferred compensation plan provides our compensation committee with the option of terminating the plan 30 days preceding or within 12 months after a change of control and distributing the account balances (which option is assumed to have been exercised for purposes of the tabular presentation below).

(1) Under Mr. Malone's employment agreement, which was assigned to Old LMC in the Old LMC Split-Off and later to our company in the LMC Spin-Off, if his employment had been terminated, as of December 30, 2016, at our election (other than for death or cause) (whether before or after a change in control) or upon Mr. Malone's prior written notice, he would have been entitled to a lump sum severance payment of $19,500 payable upon termination, which is equal to five years' of his current annual salary of $3,900. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—John C. Malone" above. Pursuant to the services agreement, 62% of such lump sum severance payment would have been allocable to Liberty Interactive. (2) As described above, Mr. Malone began receiving 240 consecutive monthly installment severance payments in February 2009 pursuant to the terms of his amended employment agreement. The number included in the table represents the aggregate amount of the payments remaining as of December 30, 2016. With respect to periods following the termination of his employment, the foregoing payments are conditioned on Mr. Malone's compliance with the confidentiality, non-competition, non-solicitation and non-interference covenants contained in his employment agreement. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—John C. Malone" above. (3) As described above, Mr. Malone began receiving 240 consecutive monthly payments of his deferred compensation plus interest, in February 2009 pursuant to the terms of his amended employment agreement, which our company assumed in connection with the LMC Spin-Off. The number included in the table represents the aggregate amount of these payments

(4) If Mr. Maffei had voluntarily terminated his employment without good reason (as defined in the Maffei Employment Agreement) as of December 30, 2016, he would have been entitled to receive in a lump sum the Pro-Rated Amount of $11,750,000, with up to 25% of such amount payable in shares of our common stock. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—Gregory B. Maffei" above. (5) If Mr. Maffei's employment had been terminated as of December 30, 2016 at our company's election without cause or by Mr. Maffei for good reason (as defined in the Maffei Employment Agreement) (whether before or within a specified period following a change in control) or due to Mr. Maffei's death or disability he would have been entitled to receive a payment of 1.5 times his 2016 base salary payable in 18 equal monthly installments. Mr. Maffei would also be entitled to receive in lump sums the Pro-Rated Amount of $11,750,000 and a separate Un-Pro Rated Amount of $17,500,000 and, in each case, up to 25% of such amounts would be payable in shares of our common stock. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—Gregory B. Maffei" above. (6) Under the 2006 deferred compensation plan, we do not and Liberty Interactive does not have an acceleration right to pay out account balances to Mr. Maffei, Mr. Carleton or Mr. Shean upon a termination of employment. However, Mr. Maffei, Mr. Carleton and Mr. Shean had the right to file an election at the time of his initial deferral to receive distributions under the 2006 deferred compensation plan upon his separation from service, including under the termination scenarios in the table above. For purposes of the tabular presentation above, we have assumed that each of Mr. Maffei, Mr. Carleton and Mr. Shean has elected to receive payout upon a separation from service of all deferred compensation, including interest. (7) The 2006 deferred compensation plan provides our compensation committee with the option of terminating the plan 30 days preceding or within 12 months after a change of control of Liberty Media and distributing the account balances (which option is assumed to have been exercised for purposes of the tabular presentation above). (8) Based on the number of vested options held by each named executive officer at December 30, 2016 and, with respect to Mr. Maffei upon a voluntary termination of his employment without good reason, the pro rata vesting of his unvested Term Options. Mr. Maffei would have forfeited his 2016 Annual Awards if his employment had been terminated for any reason as of December 30, 2016. If Mr. Baer's employment had been terminated for any reason as of December 30, 2016, he would have forfeited the 2016 Term Options. If Mr. Baer's employment had been terminated by Mr. Baer without good reason as of December 30, 2016, he would have forfeited the unvested portion of his 2012 Term Options. For more information, see the "Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End" table, "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—Gregory B. Maffei" and "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—Richard N. Baer" above. (9) Based on (i) the number of vested options held by Mr. Maffei at December 30, 2016 and (ii) the number of unvested Term Options held by Mr. Maffei at December 30, 2016 that would vest pursuant to the forward-vesting provisions in the award agreement if he were terminated without cause or for good reason as of December 30, 2016. Mr. Maffei would have forfeited his 2016 Annual Awards if his employment had been terminated for any reason as of December 30, 2016. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—Gregory B. Maffei" above and the "Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End" table above. (10) Based on (i) the number of vested options held by each named executive officer at December 30, 2016, (ii) the number of unvested options held by each named executive officer at December 30, 2016, other than the unvested 2016 Term Options held by Mr. Baer and the unvested 2016 Annual Options held by Mr. Maffei, and (iii) the number of unvested Chief LMCK RSUs held by Messrs. Carleton, Rosenthaler and Shean at December 30, 2016. For more information, see the "Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End" table above. (11) If Mr. Maffei's employment had been terminated at our company's election for any reason (other than cause) or by Mr. Maffei for good reason (as defined in his employment agreement) or by reason of disability, as of December 30, 2016, he would have been entitled to receive personal use of the corporate aircraft for 120 hours per year over a 12-month period. Perquisite amount of $465,382 represents the maximum potential cost of using the corporate aircraft for 120 hours based on an hourly average of the incremental cost of use of the corporate aircraft. Pursuant to the LIC Services Agreement, 32% of such perquisite expense would have been allocable to Liberty Interactive. (12) If Mr. Baer's employment had been terminated due to his death or disability or at Liberty Media's election without cause or by Mr. Baer for good reason (as defined in his 2012 Employment Agreement), as of December 30, 2016, he would have been entitled to receive a lump sum payment in an amount equal to two times his base salary then in effect. See "—Executive Compensation Arrangements—Richard N. Baer" above. Pursuant to the LIC Services Agreement, 35% of such lump sum severance payment would have been allocable to Liberty Interactive. (13) Based on (i) the number of vested options held by such named executive officer at December 30, 2016, (ii) the number of unvested options held by each named executive officer at December 30, 2016 that would vest pursuant to the forward-vesting provisions in such named executive officer's award agreements if he were terminated without cause as of December 30, 2016.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Nonemployee Directors

Director Fees. Each of our directors who is not an employee of our company is paid an annual fee of $214,000 (which, in 2016, was $210,000) (which we refer to as the director fee ), of which $102,000 ($100,000 in 2016) is payable in cash and the balance is payable in RSUs or options to purchase shares of LSXMK, BATRK and FWONK. For service on our board in 2016, each director was permitted to elect to receive $110,000 of his or her director fee in restricted shares or options to purchase shares of our then-existing Series C common stock. The awards issued to our directors with respect to their service on our board in 2016 were issued in December 2015. See "—Director RSU Grants" and "—Director Option Grants" below for information on the incentive awards granted in 2016 to the nonemployee directors with respect to service on our board in 2017.

The fees for service as a board committee chairman and as a board committee member are the same for 2016 and 2017. The chairman of the audit committee of our board of directors is paid an additional annual fee of $40,000, and each other member of that committee receives an additional annual fee of $30,000. With respect to our executive committee, each nonemployee member thereof receives an additional annual fee of $10,000 for his participation on the committee. With respect to our compensation committee and nominating and corporate governance committee, each member thereof receives an annual fee of $10,000 for his or her participation on each such committee, except that any committee member who is also the chairman of that committee instead receives an annual fee of $20,000 for his or her participation on that committee. The cash portion of the director fees and the fees for participation on committees are payable quarterly in arrears.

Charitable Contributions. If a director makes a donation to our political action committee, we will make a matching donation to a charity of his or her choice in an amount not to exceed $10,000.

Equity Incentive Plan. The 2013 Nonemployee Director Plan is administered by our entire board of directors. Our board of directors has full power and authority to grant eligible persons the awards described below and to determine the terms and conditions under which any awards are made. The 2013 Nonemployee Director Plan is designed to provide our nonemployee directors with additional remuneration for services rendered, to encourage their investment in our common stock and to aid in attracting persons of exceptional ability to become nonemployee directors of our company. Our board of directors may grant non-qualified stock options, SARs, restricted shares, RSUs and cash awards or any combination of the foregoing under the 2013 Nonemployee Director Plan.

The maximum number of shares of our common stock with respect to which awards may be issued under the 2013 Nonemployee Director Plan is 6,033,000, subject to anti-dilution and other adjustment provisions of the plan. Under the 2013 Nonemployee Director Plan, no nonemployee director may be granted during any calendar year awards having a value determined on the date of grant in excess of $3 million. Shares of our common stock issuable pursuant to awards made under the 2013 Nonemployee Director Plan are made available from either authorized but unissued shares or shares that have been issued but reacquired by our company.

As described above, in connection with the LMC Spin-Off, our company's board of directors adopted the TSAP, which governs the terms and conditions of awards issued in the LMC Spin-Off in connection with adjustments made to awards previously granted by Old LMC with respect to its common stock.

In 2016, each of our nonemployee directors was given a choice of receiving his or her annual equity grant in the form of restricted shares or options.

Director Restricted Share Grants. In connection with the rights offering, we granted restricted shares of our BATRK shares to: Brian M. Deevy—33; M. Ian G. Gilchrist—106; Evan D.

Malone—138; David E. Rapley—41; and Larry E. Romrell—138. These restricted share awards vested in full on June 28, 2016. The grant date fair value of these awards is included in the Director Compensation Table below.

Director RSU Grants. Pursuant to our director compensation policy described above and the 2013 Nonemployee Director Plan, on December 12, 2016, Mr. Bennett and Mr. Deevy were each granted RSUs with respect to 2,394 LSXMK shares, 326 BATRK shares and 625 FWONK shares, and Mr. Gilchrist and Ms. Wong were each granted RSUs with respect to 1,197 LSXMK shares, 163 BATRK shares and 313 FWONK shares. These restricted stock units will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date, or on such earlier date that the grantee ceases to be a director because of death or disability, and, unless our board of directors determines otherwise, will be forfeited if the grantee resigns or is removed from the board before the vesting date.

Director Option Grants. Pursuant to our director compensation policy described above and the 2013 Nonemployee Director Plan, on December 12, 2016, Mr. Gilchrist and Mr. Rapley were each granted 5,508 options to purchase LSXMK shares, 704 options to purchase BATRK shares and 1,311 options to purchase FWONK shares, and each of Mr. Malone, Mr. Romrell and Ms. Wong were granted 11,017 options to purchase LSXMK shares, 1,409 options to purchase BATRK shares and 2,623 options to purchase FWONK shares. The exercise price of the LSXMK, BATRK and FWONK options, was equal to $34.09, $20.13 and $30.49, respectively, which was the closing price of each such stock on the grant date. These options will become exercisable on the first anniversary of the grant date, or on such earlier date that the grantee ceases to be a director because of death or disability, and, unless our board determines otherwise, will be terminated without becoming exercisable if the grantee resigns or is removed from the board before the vesting date. Once vested, the options will remain exercisable until the seventh anniversary of the grant date or, if earlier, until the first business day following the first anniversary of the date the grantee ceases to be a director.

Stock Ownership Guidelines. In March 2016, our board of directors adopted stock ownership guidelines that require each director to own shares of our company's stock equal to at least three times the value of their annual cash retainer fees. Directors will have five years from the later of (i) the effective date of the new guidelines and (ii) the director's initial appointment to our board to comply with these guidelines.

Director Deferred Compensation Plan. Effective beginning in the fourth quarter of 2013, directors of our company are eligible to participate in the Liberty Media Corporation Nonemployee Director Deferred Compensation Plan (the director deferred compensation plan ), pursuant to which eligible directors of our company can elect to defer all or any portion of their annual cash fees that they would otherwise be entitled to receive. The deferral of such annual cash fees shall be effected by a reduction in the quarterly payment of such annual cash fees by the percentage specified in the director's election. Elections are required to be made in advance of certain deadlines, which generally must be on or before the close of business on December 31 of the year prior to the year to which the director's election will apply, and elections must include the form of distribution, such as a lump-sum payment or substantially equal installments over a period not to exceed ten years. The director deferred compensation plan was amended effective January 1, 2015, to reflect the following changes: (A) compensation deferred under the director deferred compensation plan prior to January 1, 2015 will earn interest at the rate of 9% per year, compounded quarterly at the end of each calendar quarter. For amounts deferred on or after January 1, 2015, those amounts will earn interest at a rate equal to the prime rate of interest (as determined by reference to the Wall Street Journal ) plus 3%; and (B) the board of directors has the authority to change this interest rate for future deferrals at any time prior to a change of control. For 2016, this rate was 6.25%. Effective January 1, 2017, amounts deferred under the plan will earn interest income at the 10-year Treasury rate plus 4.5%, as determined as of the first business day of November of the year prior to each plan year.

issuance of additional, replacement or alternative Awards upon the occurrence of specified events, including the exercise of the original Award.

ARTICLE VII SARS

7.1 Grant of SARs. Subject to the limitations of the Plan, SARs may be granted by the Committee to such eligible Persons in such numbers, with respect to any specified series of Common Stock, and at such times during the term of the Plan as the Committee shall determine. A SAR may be granted to a Holder of an Option (hereinafter called a "related Option") with respect to all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock subject to the related Option (a "Tandem SAR") or may be granted separately to an eligible Person (a "Free Standing SAR"). Subject to the limitations of the Plan, SARs shall be exercisable in whole or in part upon notice to the Company upon such terms and conditions as are provided in the Agreement.

7.2 Tandem SARs. A Tandem SAR may be granted either concurrently with the grant of the related Option or at any time thereafter prior to the complete exercise, termination, expiration or cancellation of such related Option. Tandem SARs shall be exercisable only at the time and to the extent that the related Option is exercisable (and may be subject to such additional limitations on exercisability as the Agreement may provide) and in no event after the complete termination or full exercise of the related Option. Upon the exercise or termination of the related Option, the Tandem SARs with respect thereto shall be canceled automatically to the extent of the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the related Option was so exercised or terminated. Subject to the limitations of the Plan, upon the exercise of a Tandem SAR and unless otherwise determined by the Committee and provided in the applicable Agreement, (i) the Holder thereof shall be entitled to receive from the Company, for each share of the applicable series of Common Stock with respect to which the Tandem SAR is being exercised, consideration (in the form determined as provided in Section 7.4) equal in value to the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share of the applicable series of Common Stock with respect to which the Tandem SAR was granted on the date of exercise over the related Option purchase price per share, and (ii) the related Option with respect thereto shall be canceled automatically to the extent of the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Tandem SAR was so exercised.

7.3 Free Standing SARs. Free Standing SARs shall be exercisable at the time, to the extent and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Agreement. The base price of a Free Standing SAR may be no less than the Fair Market Value of the applicable series of Common Stock with respect to which the Free Standing SAR was granted as of the date the Free Standing SAR is granted. Subject to the limitations of the Plan, upon the exercise of a Free Standing SAR and unless otherwise determined by the Committee and provided in the applicable Agreement, the Holder thereof shall be entitled to receive from the Company, for each share of the applicable series of Common Stock with respect to which the Free Standing SAR is being exercised, consideration (in the form determined as provided in Section 7.4) equal in value to the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share of the applicable series of Common Stock with respect to which the Free Standing SAR was granted on the date of exercise over the base price per share of such Free Standing SAR. The term of a Free Standing SAR may not exceed ten years. However, if the term of a Free Standing SAR expires when trading in the Common Stock is prohibited by law or the Company's insider trading policy, then the term of such Free Standing SAR shall expire on the 30th day after the expiration of such prohibition.

Table of Contents

7.4 Consideration. The consideration to be received upon the exercise of a SAR by the Holder shall be paid in cash, shares of the applicable series of Common Stock with respect to which the SAR was granted (valued at Fair Market Value on the date of exercise of such SAR), a combination of cash and such shares of the applicable series of Common Stock or such other consideration, in each case, as provided in the Agreement. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon exercise of a SAR, and unless otherwise provided in the applicable Agreement, the Holder will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares. Unless the Committee shall otherwise determine, to the extent a Free Standing SAR is exercisable, it will be exercised automatically for cash on its expiration date.

7.5 Limitations. The applicable Agreement may provide for a limit on the amount payable to a Holder upon exercise of SARs at any time or in the aggregate, for a limit on the number of SARs that may be exercised by the Holder in whole or in part for cash during any specified period, for a limit on the time periods during which a Holder may exercise SARs, and for such other limits on the rights of the Holder and such other terms and conditions of the SAR, including a condition that the SAR may be exercised only in accordance with rules and regulations adopted from time to time, as the Committee may determine. Unless otherwise so provided in the applicable Agreement, any such limit relating to a Tandem SAR shall not restrict the exercisability of the related Option. Such rules and regulations may govern the right to exercise SARs granted prior to the adoption or amendment of such rules and regulations as well as SARs granted thereafter.

7.6 Exercise. For purposes of this Article VII, the date of exercise of a SAR shall mean the date on which the Company shall have received notice from the Holder of the SAR of the exercise of such SAR (unless otherwise determined by the Committee and provided in the applicable Agreement).

ARTICLE VIII RESTRICTED SHARES AND RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

8.1 Grant of Restricted Shares. Subject to the limitations of the Plan, the Committee shall designate those eligible Persons to be granted Awards of Restricted Shares, shall determine the time when each such Award shall be granted, and shall designate (or set forth the basis for determining) the Vesting Date or Vesting Dates for each Award of Restricted Shares, and may prescribe other restrictions, terms and conditions applicable to the vesting of such Restricted Shares in addition to those provided in the Plan. The Committee shall determine the price, if any, to be paid by the Holder for the Restricted Shares; provided, however, that the issuance of Restricted Shares shall be made for at least the minimum consideration necessary to permit such Restricted Shares to be deemed fully paid and nonassessable. All determinations made by the Committee pursuant to this Section 8.1 shall be specified in the Agreement.

8.2 Issuance of Restricted Shares. An Award of Restricted Shares shall be registered in a book entry account (the "Account") in the name of the Holder to whom such Restricted Shares shall have been awarded. During the Restriction Period, the Account, any statement of ownership representing the Restricted Shares that may be issued during the Restriction Period and any securities constituting Retained Distributions shall bear a restrictive legend to the effect that ownership of the Restricted Shares (and such Retained Distributions), and the enjoyment of all rights appurtenant thereto, are subject to the restrictions, terms and conditions provided in the Plan and the applicable Agreement.

8.3 Restrictions with Respect to Restricted Shares. During the Restriction Period, Restricted Shares shall constitute issued and outstanding shares of the applicable series of Common Stock for all corporate purposes. The Holder will have the right to vote such Restricted Shares, to receive and retain such dividends and distributions, as the Committee may designate, paid or distributed on such Restricted Shares, and to exercise all other rights, powers and privileges of a Holder of shares of the applicable series of Common Stock with respect to such Restricted Shares; except, that, unless otherwise determined by the Committee and provided in the applicable Agreement, (i) the Holder will

not be entitled to delivery of the Restricted Shares until the Restriction Period shall have expired and unless all other vesting requirements with respect thereto shall have been fulfilled or waived; (ii) the Company or its designee will retain custody of the Restricted Shares during the Restriction Period as provided in Section 8.2; (iii) other than such dividends and distributions as the Committee may designate, the Company or its designee will retain custody of all distributions ("Retained Distributions") made or declared with respect to the Restricted Shares (and such Retained Distributions will be subject to the same restrictions, terms and vesting, and other conditions as are applicable to the Restricted Shares) until such time, if ever, as the Restricted Shares with respect to which such Retained Distributions shall have been made, paid or declared shall have become vested, and such Retained Distributions shall not bear interest or be segregated in a separate account; (iv) the Holder may not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, exchange, encumber or dispose of the Restricted Shares or any Retained Distributions or such Holder's interest in any of them during the Restriction Period; and (v) a breach of any restrictions, terms or conditions provided in the Plan or established by the Committee with respect to any Restricted Shares or Retained Distributions will cause a forfeiture of such Restricted Shares and any Retained Distributions with respect thereto.

8.4 Grant of Restricted Stock Units. Subject to the limitations of the Plan, the Committee shall designate those eligible Persons to be granted Awards of Restricted Stock Units, the value of which is based, in whole or in part, on the Fair Market Value of the shares of any specified series of Common Stock. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, including any rules established pursuant to Section 8.5, Awards of Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to such terms, restrictions, conditions, vesting requirements and payment rules as the Committee may determine in its discretion, which need not be identical for each Award. Such Awards may provide for the payment of cash consideration by the Person to whom such Award is granted or provide that the Award, and any shares of Common Stock to be issued in connection therewith, if applicable, shall be delivered without the payment of cash consideration; provided, however, that the issuance of any shares of Common Stock in connection with an Award of Restricted Stock Units shall be for at least the minimum consideration necessary to permit such shares to be deemed fully paid and nonassessable. The determinations made by the Committee pursuant to this Section 8.4 shall be specified in the applicable Agreement.

8.5 Restrictions with Respect to Restricted Stock Units. Any Award of Restricted Stock Units, including any shares of Common Stock which are part of an Award of Restricted Stock Units, may not be assigned, sold, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered prior to the date on which the shares are issued or, if later, the date provided by the Committee at the time of the Award. A breach of any restrictions, terms or conditions provided in the Plan or established by the Committee with respect to any Award of Restricted Stock Units will cause a forfeiture of such Restricted Stock Units and any Dividend Equivalents with respect thereto.

8.6 Issuance of Restricted Stock Units. Restricted Stock Units shall be issued at the beginning of the Restriction Period, shall not constitute issued and outstanding shares of the applicable series of Common Stock, and the Holder shall not have any of the rights of a stockholder with respect to the shares of Common Stock covered by such an Award of Restricted Stock Units, in each case until such shares shall have been issued to the Holder at the end of the Restriction Period. If and to the extent that shares of Common Stock are to be issued at the end of the Restriction Period, the Holder shall be entitled to receive Dividend Equivalents with respect to the shares of Common Stock covered thereby either (i) during the Restriction Period or (ii) in accordance with the rules applicable to Retained Distributions, as the Committee may specify in the Agreement.

8.7 Cash Payments. In connection with any Award of Restricted Shares or Restricted Stock Units, an Agreement may provide for the payment of a cash amount to the Holder of such Awards at any time after such Awards shall have become vested. Such cash amounts shall be payable in accordance with such additional restrictions, terms and conditions as shall be prescribed by the Committee in the Agreement and shall be in addition to any other salary, incentive, bonus or other compensation payments which such Holder shall be otherwise entitled or eligible to receive from the Company.

8.8 Completion of Restriction Period. On the Vesting Date with respect to each Award of Restricted Shares or Restricted Stock Units and the satisfaction of any other applicable restrictions, terms, and conditions, (i) all or the applicable portion of such Restricted Shares or Restricted Stock Units shall become vested, (ii) any Retained Distributions with respect to such Restricted Shares and any unpaid Dividend Equivalents with respect to such Restricted Stock Units shall become vested to the extent that the Awards related thereto shall have become vested, and (iii) any cash amount to be received by the Holder with respect to such Restricted Shares or Restricted Stock Units shall become payable, all in accordance with the terms of the applicable Agreement. Any such Restricted Shares, Restricted Stock Units, Retained Distributions, and any unpaid Dividend Equivalents that shall not become vested shall be forfeited to the Company, and the Holder shall not thereafter have any rights (including dividend and voting rights) with respect to such Restricted Shares, Restricted Stock Units, Retained Distributions, and any unpaid Dividend Equivalents that shall have been so forfeited. The Committee may, in its discretion, provide that the delivery of any Restricted Shares, Restricted Stock Units, Retained Distributions, and unpaid Dividend Equivalents that shall have become vested, and payment of any related cash amounts that shall have become payable under this Article VIII, shall be deferred until such date or dates as the recipient may elect. Any election of a recipient pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be filed in writing with the Committee in accordance with such rules and regulations, including any deadline for the making of such an election, as the Committee may provide, and shall be made in compliance with Section 409A of the Code.

ARTICLE IX Cash Awards and Performance Awards

9.1 Cash Awards. In addition to granting Options, SARs, Restricted Shares and Restricted Stock Units, the Committee shall, subject to the limitations of the Plan, have authority to grant to eligible Persons Cash Awards. Each Cash Award shall be subject to such terms and conditions, restrictions and contingencies, if any, as the Committee shall determine. Restrictions and contingencies limiting the right to receive a cash payment pursuant to a Cash Award shall be based upon the achievement of single or multiple Performance Objectives over a performance period established by the Committee. The determinations made by the Committee pursuant to this Section 9.1 shall be specified in the applicable Agreement.

9.2 Designation as a Performance Award. The Committee shall have the right to designate any Award of Options, SARs, Restricted Shares or Restricted Stock Units as a Performance Award. All Cash Awards shall be designated as Performance Awards.

9.3 Performance Objectives. The grant or vesting of a Performance Award shall be subject to the achievement of Performance Objectives over a performance period established by the Committee based upon one or more of the following business criteria that apply to the Holder, one or more business units, divisions or Subsidiaries of the Company or the applicable sector of the Company, or the Company as a whole, or any entity or entities to which the Company or Subsidiaries of the Company are providing services and if so desired by the Committee, by comparison with a peer group of companies: increased revenue; net income measures (including income after capital costs and income before or after taxes); stock price measures (including growth measures and total stockholder return); price per share of Common Stock; market share; earnings per share (actual or targeted growth); earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA); operating income before depreciation and amortization (OIBDA); economic value added (or an equivalent metric); market value added; debt to equity ratio; cash flow measures (including cash flow return on capital, cash flow return on tangible capital, net cash flow and net cash flow before financing activities); return measures (including return on equity, return on average assets, return on capital, risk-adjusted return on capital, return on investors' capital and return on average equity); operating measures (including operating income, funds from operations, cash from operations, after-tax operating income, sales volumes,

production volumes and production efficiency); expense measures (including overhead cost and general and administrative expense); margins; stockholder value; total stockholder return; proceeds from dispositions; total market value and corporate values measures (including ethics compliance, environmental and safety). Unless otherwise stated, such a Performance Objective need not be based upon an increase or positive result under a particular business criterion and could include, for example, maintaining the status quo or limiting economic losses (measured, in each case, by reference to specific business criteria). The Committee shall have the authority to determine whether the Performance Objectives and other terms and conditions of the Award are satisfied, and the Committee's determination as to the achievement of Performance Objectives relating to a Performance Award shall be made in writing.

9.4 Section 162(m) of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, if the Committee intends for a Performance Award to be granted and administered in a manner designed to preserve the deductibility of the compensation resulting from such Award in accordance with Section 162(m) of the Code, then the Performance Objectives for such particular Performance Award relative to the particular period of service to which the Performance Objectives relate shall be established by the Committee in writing (i) no later than 90 days after the beginning of such period and (ii) prior to the completion of 25% of such period.

9.5 Waiver of Performance Objectives. The Committee shall have no discretion to modify or waive the Performance Objectives or conditions to the grant or vesting of a Performance Award unless such Award is not intended to qualify as qualified performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code and the relevant Agreement provides for such discretion.

Table of Contents

10.3 Right of Company to Terminate Employment or Service. Nothing contained in the Plan or in any Award, and no action of the Company or the Committee with respect thereto, shall confer or be construed to confer on any Holder any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company to terminate the employment or service of the Holder at any time, with or without cause, subject, however, to the provisions of any employment or consulting agreement between the Holder and the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, or in the case of a director, to the charter and bylaws, as the same may be in effect from time to time.

10.4 Nonalienation of Benefits. Except as set forth herein, no right or benefit under the Plan shall be subject to anticipation, alienation, sale, assignment, hypothecation, pledge, exchange, transfer, garnishment, encumbrance or charge, and any attempt to anticipate, alienate, sell, assign, hypothecate, pledge, exchange, transfer, garnish, encumber or charge the same shall be void. No right or benefit hereunder shall in any manner be liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities or torts of the Person entitled to such benefits.

10.5 Written Agreement. Each Award under the Plan shall be evidenced by a written agreement, in such form as the Committee shall approve from time to time in its discretion, specifying the terms and provisions of such Award which may not be inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan; provided, however , that if more than one type of Award is made to the same Holder, such Awards may be evidenced by a single Agreement with such Holder. Each grantee of an Option, SAR, Restricted Shares, Restricted Stock Units or Performance Award (including a Cash Award) shall be notified promptly of such grant, and a written Agreement shall be promptly delivered by the Company. Any such written Agreement may contain (but shall not be required to contain) such provisions as the Committee deems appropriate to insure that the penalty provisions of Section 4999 of the Code will not apply to any stock or cash received by the Holder from the Company. Any such Agreement may be supplemented or amended from time to time as approved by the Committee as contemplated by Section 10.7(b).

10.6 Nontransferability. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee and expressly provided for in an Agreement, Awards are not transferable (either voluntarily or involuntarily), before or after a Holder's death, except as follows: (a) during the Holder's lifetime, pursuant to a Domestic Relations Order, issued by a court of competent jurisdiction, that is not contrary to the terms and conditions of the Plan or any applicable Agreement, and in a form acceptable to the Committee; or (b) after the Holder's death, by will or pursuant to the applicable laws of descent and distribution, as may be the case. Any person to whom Awards are transferred in accordance with the provisions of the preceding

sentence shall take such Awards subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Plan and any applicable Agreement.

10.7 Termination and Amendment.

10.8 Government and Other Regulations. The obligation of the Company with respect to Awards shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations and such approvals by any governmental agencies as may be required, including the effectiveness of any registration statement required under the Securities Act of 1933, and the rules and regulations of any securities exchange or association on which the Common Stock may be listed or quoted. For so long as any series of Common Stock are registered under the Exchange Act, the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to comply with any legal requirements (i) to maintain a registration statement in effect under the Securities Act of 1933 with respect to all shares of the applicable series of Common Stock that may be issuable, from time to time, to Holders under the Plan and (ii) to file in a timely manner all reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act.

10.9 Withholding. The Company's obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock or pay cash in respect of any Award under the Plan shall be subject to applicable federal, state and local tax withholding requirements. Federal, state and local withholding tax due at the time of an Award, upon the exercise of any Option or SAR or upon the vesting of, or expiration of restrictions with respect to, Restricted Shares or Restricted Stock Units or the satisfaction of the Performance Objectives applicable to a Performance Award, as appropriate, may, in the discretion of the Committee, be paid in shares of Common Stock already owned by the Holder or through the withholding of shares otherwise issuable to such Holder, upon such terms and conditions (including the conditions referenced in Section 6.5) as the Committee shall determine. For the avoidance of doubt, the Committee may, in its discretion, allow for tax withholding in respect of any Award up to the maximum withholding rate applicable to the Holder. If the Holder shall fail to pay, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee for the payment to the Company of, all such federal, state and local taxes required to be withheld by the Company, then the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct from any

Table of Contents

payment of any kind otherwise due to such Holder an amount equal to any federal, state or local taxes of any kind required to be withheld by the Company with respect to such Award.

10.10 Nonexclusivity of the Plan. The adoption of the Plan by the Board shall not be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such other incentive arrangements as it may deem desirable, including the granting of stock options and the awarding of stock and cash otherwise than under the Plan, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

10.11 Exclusion from Other Plans. By acceptance of an Award, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Agreement, each Holder shall be deemed to have agreed that such Award is special incentive compensation that will not be taken into account, in any manner, as salary, compensation or bonus in determining the amount of any payment under any pension, retirement or other benefit plan, program or policy of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company. In addition, each beneficiary of a deceased Holder shall be deemed to have agreed that such Award will not affect the amount of any life insurance coverage, if any, provided by the Company on the life of the Holder which is payable to such beneficiary under any life insurance plan of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company.

10.12 Unfunded Plan. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary of the Company shall be required to segregate any cash or any shares of Common Stock which may at any time be represented by Awards, and the Plan shall constitute an "unfunded" plan of the Company. Except as provided in Article VIII with respect to Awards of Restricted Shares and except as expressly set forth in an Agreement, no Holder shall have voting or other rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock covered by an Award prior to the delivery of such shares. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary of the Company shall, by any provisions of the Plan, be deemed to be a trustee of any shares of Common Stock or any other property, and the liabilities of the Company and any Subsidiary of the Company to any Holder pursuant to the Plan shall be those of a debtor pursuant to such contract obligations as are created by or pursuant to the Plan, and the rights of any Holder, former service provider or beneficiary under the Plan shall be limited to those of a general creditor of the Company or the applicable Subsidiary of the Company, as the case may be. In its sole discretion, the Board may authorize the creation of trusts or other arrangements to meet the obligations of the Company under the Plan, provided, however , that the existence of such trusts or other arrangements is consistent with the unfunded status of the Plan.

10.13 Governing Law. The Plan shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware.

10.14 Accounts. The delivery of any shares of Common Stock and the payment of any amount in respect of an Award shall be for the account of the Company or the applicable Subsidiary of the Company, as the case may be, and any such delivery or payment shall not be made until the recipient shall have paid or made satisfactory arrangements for the payment of any applicable withholding taxes as provided in Section 10.9.

10.15 Legends. Any statement of ownership evidencing shares of Common Stock subject to an Award shall bear such legends as the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to reflect or refer to any terms, conditions or restrictions of the Award applicable to such shares, including any to the effect that the shares represented thereby may not be disposed of unless the Company has received an opinion of counsel, acceptable to the Company, that such disposition will not violate any federal or state securities laws.

10.16 Company's Rights. The grant of Awards pursuant to the Plan shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company to make reclassifications, reorganizations or other changes of or to its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, liquidate, sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of its business or assets.

10.17 Section 409A. The Plan and the Awards made hereunder are intended to be (i) "stock rights" exempt from Section 409A of the Code ("Section 409A") pursuant to Treasury Regulations § 1.409A-1(b)(5), (ii) "short-term deferrals" exempt from Section 409A or (iii) payments which are deferred compensation and paid in compliance with Section 409A, and the Plan and each Agreement shall be interpreted and administered accordingly. Any adjustments of Awards intended to be "stock rights" exempt from Section 409A pursuant to Treasury Regulations § 1.409A-1(b)(5) shall be conducted in a manner so as not to constitute a grant of a new stock right or a change in the time and form of payment pursuant to Treasury Regulations §1.409A-1(b)(5)(v). In the event an Award is not exempt from Section 409A, (x) payment pursuant to the relevant Agreement shall be made only on a permissible payment event or at a specified time in compliance with Section 409A, (y) no accelerated payment shall be made pursuant to Section 10.1(b) unless the Board Change, Approved Transaction or Control Purchase constitutes a "change in control event" under Treasury Regulations §1.409A-3(i)(5) or otherwise constitutes a permissible payment event under Section 409A and (z) no amendment or modification of such Award may be made except in compliance with the anti-deferral and anti-acceleration provisions of Section 409A. No deferrals of compensation otherwise payable under the Plan or any Award shall be allowed, whether at the discretion of the Company or the Holder, except in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A. If a Holder is identified by the Company as a "specified employee" within the meaning of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) on the date on which such Holder has a "separation from service" (other than due to death) within the meaning of Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(h), any Award payable or settled on account of a separation from service that is deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A shall be paid or settled on the earliest of (1) the first business day following the expiration of six months from the Holder's separation from service, (2) the date of the Holder's death, or (3) such earlier date as complies with the requirements of Code Section 409A.

10.18 Administrative Blackouts. In addition to its other powers hereunder, the Committee has the authority to suspend (i) the exercise of Options or SARs and (ii) any other transactions under the Plan as it deems necessary or appropriate for administrative reasons.

10.19 Clawback Policy. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Plan, any Award shall be subject to recovery or clawback by the Company under any clawback policy adopted by the Company in accordance with SEC regulations or other applicable law, as amended or superseded from time to time.

10.20 Stock Ownership Guidelines. Any Award shall be subject to any applicable stock ownership guidelines adopted by the Company, as amended or superseded from time to time.
