**Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.**

On January 18, 2023, Starry Group Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") announced a reduction in the Company's current workforce by approximately 100 employees, representing approximately 24% of the Company's total workforce. The reduction in force will take effect on January 23, 2023. The decision was based on cost-reduction initiatives intended to reduce operating expenses and allow the Company to focus on serving its existing core markets and customers.

The Company currently estimates that it will incur one-time cash charges of approximately $0.8 million in connection with the reduction in force, primarily consisting of notice period and severance payments, employee benefits and related costs. The Company expects that the majority of such charges will be incurred in the first quarter of 2023, and that the reduction in force will be substantially complete by the end of the second quarter of 2023. The charges the Company expects to incur are subject to assumptions, and actual charges may differ from the estimate disclosed above.

In aggregate, over the next twelve months, the reduction in force is expected to result in approximately $12.0 million in cash operating expense savings related to foregone salaries and benefits. The Company also anticipates approximately $5.3 million in non-cash savings related to share-based compensation expense that will no longer be recognized due to the cancellation of previously granted, unvested equity awards. Approximately $0.5 million of such non-cash savings had previously been recognized as share-based compensation expense and will be reversed in the first quarter of 2023. In the future, there may also be incremental one-time charges associated with the Company's non-work force related cost savings actions.

**Forward-Looking Statements**

This Current Report on Form 8-K includes statements that may constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include, but are not limited to, express or implied forward-looking statements relating to our expectations regarding our plans, objectives and expectations relating to our reduction in force, including timing, potential cost savings and expected impacts to our financial results and operations, our strategy, competitive position and opportunities in the marketplace, and our anticipated business and financial performance. These statements are neither promises nor guarantees, but are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in these forward-looking statements. Existing and prospective investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied include our limited remaining available cash, our ability to remain in compliance with and not in default under our credit facility, our potential inability to timely procure additional financing or other strategic option on favorable terms, or at all, our potential inability to realize the expected benefits of the announced reduction in workforce and other cost-cutting measures and the risks and uncertainties described in the "Risk Factors" section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.
