In Puerto Rico and the USVI, spectrum licenses are typically held for perpetuity with the exception of CBRS (Citizens Broadband Radio Service) spectrum which has a priority term of 10 years. The company also holds mobile spectrum licenses in Costa Rica with a 15-year term that may be extended for an additional 10 year term. Subscribers to the company’s mobile services pay varying monthly fees depending on whether the mobile service is bundled with one of its other services or includes mobile data services over their phones, tablets or laptops. The company’s mobile services are available on a postpaid or prepaid basis. The company offers its customers the option to purchase mobile handsets with purchase terms typically related to whether the customer selects a prepaid or postpaid plan. Broadband Internet Services: To support its customers’ connectivity demands, the company is expanding its networks to make high-speed broadband available to more people. This includes investment in the convergence of the company’s fixed and mobile data systems and through its next generation WiFi products, which enable it to maximize the impact of its broadband networks by providing reliable, high-speed wireless connectivity anywhere in the home. These gateway products can be self-installed and have an automatic WiFi optimization function, which selects the best possible wireless frequency. During 2022, the company’s Network Extension programs upgraded or passed approximately 484,400 homes across Liberty Latin America. The internet speeds the company offers are one of its differentiators, as customers spend more time streaming video and other bandwidth-heavy services on multiple devices. As a result, the company is continuing to invest in additional bandwidth and technologies to increase internet speeds throughout its Latin America and Caribbean footprint. The company plans to continue the upgrade and expansion of its fixed networks so that it can deploy high-speed internet service to additional customers in the coming years. The company’s residential subscribers access the internet predominantly via FTTH (Fiber-to-the-home/-cabinet/-building/-node) or HFC (Hybrid fiber coaxial cable networks) networks and with modems connected to their internet capable devices, including personal computers, or wirelessly via next generation WiFi and telephony gateway products. In each of its markets, the company offers multiple tiers of internet service. The speed of service depends on location and the tier of service selected by the company’s subscribers. The company’s value-added services include security measures and online storage. Mobile broadband internet services are also available through the company’s mobile services. Subscribers to the company’s internet service pay a monthly fee based on the tier of service selected. In addition to the monthly fee, customers pay an activation service fee upon subscribing to an internet service. This one-time fee may be waived for promotional reasons. Video Services: The company offers video services in Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, and in most of C&W’s residential markets. In most markets, the company is enhancing its video offerings with next generation, market-leading digital television platforms that enable its customers to control when and where they watch their programming. These advanced services are predominantly delivered over the company’s FTTH and HFC networks and customers access a range of features that include a DVR (Digital video recorder), a VoD offering and an advanced user interface, including an electronic programming guide, voice search and recommendation. These video customers can pause their programming while a live broadcast is in progress, return to the start and find programs they may have missed. They can also stream a selection of channels and non-linear content on their own devices through TV Everywhere mobile applications, such as, Flow Sports in the Caribbean, Liberty Go in Puerto Rico, +movil Total in Panama and Liberty Go in Costa Rica. The company’s operations with video services typically offer multiple tiers of digital video programming starting with affordable entry or skinny and basic video service tiers. Subscribers have the option to select extended and/or premium subscription packages combining linear channels and VoD. Subscribers to the company’s digital video services pay a fixed monthly fee and, in most of its markets, all tiers include a number of HD channels, as well as access to enhanced features. In addition, through its latest generation of video CPE (Customer premises equipment), subscribers can access most leading internet streaming services. Discounts to the company’s monthly service fees are generally available to a subscriber who selects a bundled service of at least two of the following services: video, internet and fixed-line telephony. The company tailors its video services in each country of operation based on local preferences, culture, demographics and regulatory requirements. The company aims to offer the most relevant mix of content to its subscribers, combining general entertainment, sports, movies, documentaries, lifestyle, news, adult, children and foreign channels, as well as local, regional and international broadcast networks.

In Puerto Rico and Costa Rica, the company also offers telephony services over its respective networks. The company offers multi-feature telephony service over its various fixed networks, including HFC cable, FTTH and copper networks. Depending on location, these services are provided via either circuit-switched telephony or VoIP technology. As it continues to develop and invest in new technologies that will enhance its customers’ experiences, the company is replacing obsolete switches with VoIP (Voice-over-internet-protocol) technology and older copper networks with modern fiber optics. These digital telephony services cover international and domestic services. Business Services B2B Services: The company offers B2B (Business-to-business) services across its operations, leveraging its high-speed and extensive fixed and mobile infrastructure. In C&W, the company has its most developed B2B business and are the largest provider of services in many of its markets, representing a significant portion of C&W’s revenue. The company’s B2B offerings by Liberty Puerto Rico and Liberty Costa Rica are less developed and provide an opportunity for future growth. C&W Networks & LatAm: The company offers cloud-based integrated communication services, connectivity and wholesale solutions to carriers and businesses throughout the Caribbean and in parts of Latin America via its subsea and terrestrial fiber optic cable networks. The company’s systems include long-haul terrestrial backbone and metro fiber networks that provide service to major commercial zones, wireless carrier cell sites and customers in key markets within its operating footprint. The company’s networks deliver critical infrastructure for the transport of growing traffic from businesses, governments and other telecommunications operators across the region, particularly to the high-traffic destination of the United States. With approximately 50,000 km of fiber optic cable, and activated capacity of over 10 Tbps, C&W Networks & LatAm is able to carry large volumes of voice and data traffic on behalf of the company’s customers, businesses and carriers.

The company also offers a range of data, voice and internet services to carriers, ISPs and mobile operators. The company’s extensive fiber optic cable networks allow it to typically deliver redundant, end-to-end connectivity backed by a strong service level agreement guarantee. The company’s networks also allow it to provide its services over dedicated access fiber lines, and local and international private networks which are dedicated to its business customers. The company’s business services fall into five broad categories: VoIP and circuit-switch telephony; Data services for internet access, virtual private networks, high capacity point-to-point, point-to-multi-point and multi-point-to-multi-point services, managed networking services such as wide area, SDWAN and WiFi networks; Wireless services for mobile voice and data; and Value added Managed Services, including private and public cloud infrastructure services and integration, including Disaster Recovery Backup Services; cloud and premise based Private Branch eXchange solutions, conferencing options and Hosted Contact Center solutions; Cyber Security Services, including structured solutions, rapid response, and other professional services; emerging technologies in software defined networking, internet of things, digitalization and digital currencies; and specialized services, such as Tele-Health, Digital Signage, and Retail Analytics. The extensive reach of the company’s network and assets, as well as its comprehensive set of capabilities positions it to meet the needs of carriers, businesses and government customers that are searching for a capable, progressive provider to manage their ever more complex communications, connectivity and information technology needs. Technology In many of its markets, the company transmits its broadband internet, video and fixed-line telephony services over an HFC cable network, and increasingly through FTTH networks. An HFC network consists primarily of fiber networks that the company connects to the home over the last few hundred meters by coaxial cable and an FTTH network uses fiber-to-the-home/-cabinet/-building/-node. In a minority of cases, the company transmits its services over a fixed network consisting of VDSL (Very high-speed DSL) or DSL (Digital subscriber line) copper lines. Approximately 95% of the company’s networks allow for two-way communications and are flexible enough to support its current services, as well as new services. The company closely monitors its network capacity and customer usage. The company continues to take actions and explore improvements to its technologies that will increase its capacity and enhance its customers’ connected entertainment experience. These actions include recapturing bandwidth and optimizing its networks by (increasing the number of nodes in its markets, increasing the bandwidth of its hybrid fiber coaxial cable networks, converting analog channels to digital, bonding additional DOCSIS 3.0 channels and adding DOCSIS 3.1 channels, replacing copper lines with modern fiber optic lines, and using digital compression technologies); freeing spectrum for high-speed internet, VoD and other services by encouraging customers to move from analog to digital services; increasing the efficiency of its networks by moving head-end functions (encoding, transcoding and multiplexing) to cloud storage systems; enhancing its network to accommodate further business services; using its wireless technologies to extend services outside of the home; offering remote access to its video services through laptops, smart phones and tablets; expanding the availability of next generation decoder and set-top boxes and related products, as well as developing and introducing online media sharing and streaming or cloud-based video; and testing new technologies. The company engages in network extension and upgrade programs across Liberty Latin America. The company collectively refers to these network extension and upgrade programs as the Network Extensions. Through the Network Extensions, the company continues to expand its fixed networks pursuant to which it passes or upgrades homes and businesses with its broadband communications network. In addition, the company looks for mobile service opportunities where it has established cable networks and has expanded its fixed-line networks where it has a strong mobile offering. This will allow the company to offer converged fixed-line and mobile services to its customers. The company delivers high-speed data and fixed-line telephony over its various fixed networks, including HFC and FTTH networks. These networks are further connected via the company subsea and terrestrial fiber optic cable networks that provide connectivity within and outside the region. The company’s subsea network cables terminating in the United States carry over 10 Tbps, which represent less than 20% of their potential capacity based on current deployed technology, presenting it with significant growth opportunities. In Puerto Rico, the company’s network includes a fiber ring around the island that provides enhanced interconnectivity points to the island’s other local and international telecommunications companies. The company operates one of the largest subsea fiber networks in the region and its systems include long-haul terrestrial backbone and metro fiber networks that provide access to major commercial zones, wireless carrier cell sites and customers in key markets within its operating footprint. The company continues to expand its wireless coverage and capacity across its markets. The company has built its region-wide 5G core and upgraded all of its Puerto Rico wireless network to 5G. Mobile The company operates mobile networks in all of its consumer markets except Trinidad & Tobago. The company’s networks deliver high-speed services, with over 90% LTE population coverage. The company’s wireless networks predominantly use LTE technologies, which it offers in most of the countries where it operates. In Puerto Rico and USVI, the company operates 5G networks and across other markets it aims to increase the speed of transmission of its data services and has been expanding its LTE (Long term evolution standard) coverage. The company transmits wireless calls and data through radio frequencies that it uses under spectrum licenses. The company has a diversified portfolio of frequencies, which support LTE and 5G (Puerto Rico & USVI only) technologies. Spectrum is a limited resource, and as a result, it may face spectrum and capacity constraints on its wireless network in certain countries. The company’s spectrum portfolio will allow it to meet subscribers’ needs in the coming years and minimal further investment, although it will continue to evaluate its need to acquire additional frequencies to supplement its existing spectrum portfolio. For example, in 2020, the company acquired CBRS (3.5 GHz) spectrum in Puerto Rico and the USVI in the auction for that frequency. In Puerto Rico and USVI the 700 MHz FirstNet (Band 14) is usable by the company (when not occupied by first responders’ traffic) but owned by AT&T and the First Responders Public Private Partnership. In 2022, AWS spectrum was allocated to the company’s Panama operations, and it acquired additional spectrum in Barbados and Cayman. The company continues to invest significant capital in expanding its network capacity and reach and to address spectrum and capacity constraints on a market-by-market basis. The company’s prime 5G deployed market is Puerto Rico and USVI where approximately 95% of the population is served by its 5G capable network. The company continually looks for opportunities to expand its 5G footprint to other countries where a positive business case exists. Similarly, the company is investing to build a new mobile core in Puerto Rico, which when built, will be virtualized, and redundant. These redundant network elements will be connected by its owned and operated diverse submarine cable routes with automatic alternate routing. Across all the company’s mobile operations it continually strives to improve its network performance by commissioning annual competitive performance benchmarking studies and undertaking customer experience improvement programs. In Puerto Rico and the USVI, the company is a part of the national US Firstnet (Emergency/First Responders) network, which necessitates above-average network resilience and other customer performance requirements, subject to governmental penalties for non-compliance. Supply Sources Content Content is one of the key drivers for customers in selecting a provider of video, broadband and/or wireless services. The company’s programming strategy is based on: product (enabling access through home and mobile screens at anytime, including live, catch-up, restart with the ability to pause programming, personal recording, on-demand and internet streaming apps); proposition (meeting its customers’ content and entertainment expectations by offering access to a wider range of channels and on-demand content, and internet streaming services at affordable and competitive price points); partnering (alliances with content partners and leading distributors to aggregate the best linear, on-demand and streaming content); and variety (expanding the content offering from video to other categories and creating an ecosystem across music, sports, retail, culinary, fitness etc. through the convenience of its products, broadband and wireless connectivity services). Except for Flow Sports and Flow 1 services, that the company operates, in the Caribbean, and the RUSH sports channel operated by a consolidated joint venture with the Digicel Group, it licenses its programming and on-demand content through distribution agreements with third-party content providers, including broadcasters, leading cable networks and major Hollywood studios. For such licenses, the company generally pays a variable monthly fee on a per subscriber basis, through multi-year programming licenses. In its distribution agreements, the company seeks to include the rights to offer the licensed channels and on-demand programming to its authenticated customers through multiple delivery platforms, including through its apps for IP-connected mobile and/or fixed devices, and its websites. The company also acquires rights to make available, in most of its markets, video services to mobile subscribers and broadband subscribers that are not subscribers to fixed TV services. A key component of the company’s strategy is speed leadership. The company’s focus is on increasing the maximum speed of its connections as well as offering varying tiers of services and prices, a variety of bundled product offerings and a range of value added services. The company updates its bundles and packages on an ongoing basis to meet the needs of its customers. The company’s top download speeds generally range from 100 Mbps to speeds of up to 1 Gbps. In many of its markets, the company offers the highest download speeds available via its HFC cable and FTTH networks. The focus is on high-speed internet products to safeguard the company’s high-end customer base and allow it to become more aggressive at the low- and medium-end of the internet market. In several of its C&W Caribbean markets, the company is the incumbent phone company offering broadband internet products through a variety of technologies, predominantly HFC cable and FTTH. In most of its markets, the company offers its internet service through bundled offerings that include video and fixed-line telephony. The company also offers a wide range of mobile products either on a prepaid or postpaid basis. With respect to rights for the sports and entertainment services the company operates directly or in a joint-venture in the Caribbean, it seeks to license locally relevant sports and general entertainment content. Additionally, the company produces original series and stories. The company’s latest video consumer equipment that is distributed to a growing number of markets, including Puerto Rico, Costa. Rica and Panama, also enables the company’s customers to access, through the Google App Store, leading streaming services, such as Netflix, Disney+, HBOMax and Amazon Prime Video. Mobile Handsets and Customer Premises Equipment The company uses a variety of suppliers for mobile handsets to offer its customers mobile services. For other customer premises equipment, the company purchases from a number of different suppliers and regularly assesses production lead times to ensure supply continuity and implement dual sourcing strategies to mitigate further risks when applicable. Customer premises equipment includes set-top boxes, modems, WiFi routers, extenders and similar devices. For each type of equipment, the company retains specialists to provide customer support. For its broadband services, the company uses a variety of suppliers for its network equipment and the various services it offers. Software Licenses The company licenses software products, including email and security software, as well as content, such as news feeds, from several suppliers for its internet services and internal IT platforms. The agreements for these products require the company to pay a per subscriber fee or a one-off software license fee and a share of advertising revenue for content licenses. For its mobile network operations and the company’s fixed-line telephony services, it licenses software products, such as voicemail, text messaging and caller ID, from a variety of suppliers. For these licenses the company seeks to enter into long-term contracts, which generally require it to pay based on usage of the services.
