the case of any Income Tax, the highest marginal Tax rate or, in the case of
any other Tax, the highest applicable Tax rate, in each case in effect with
respect to that Tax for the Taxable period or any portion of the Taxable
period to which the indemnification payment relates; and (b) such

             CONTRIBUTIONS, REORGANIZATION AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

         2.1  PRE-CLOSING RESTRUCTURING TRANSACTIONS. Prior to and as a
condition precedent of the Closing, the parties shall effect or cause to be
effected the following transactions:

                  (a) Each of the Founders will contribute, convey, transfer,
assign and deliver, free and clear of all Liens and Restrictions, except as
set forth in Section 5.7 of the Founders Disclosure Schedule, all and not
less than all of the shares of United Class B Stock held by such Founder as
indicated next to such Founder's name on SCHEDULE 2.1(a) (collectively, the
"FOUNDER SHARES"), in each case together with the right to receive all unpaid
dividends and distributions declared or otherwise payable with respect to
such Founder Shares and associated stock purchase rights, if any, to
newly-formed single-member limited liability companies organized under the
laws of the State of Delaware (each a "FOUNDER NEWCO"). At all times from the
organization of each Founder Newco until the Closing (i) no Person other than
the Founder contributing shares of United Class B Stock to such Founder Newco
shall own any equity interest whatsoever in such Founder Newco, (ii) the
limited liability company membership interests in such Founder Newco shall be
owned by the applicable Founder free and clear of any Liens and Restrictions,
and such Founder Newco shall have no assets, other than Founder Shares and
shares of United Class A Stock issued to such Founder Newco upon conversion
of Founder Shares pursuant to the following sentence, and no liabilities or
obligations, known or unknown, whether absolute, accrued, fixed, contingent
or otherwise, other than its obligations under the applicable Founder Newco
Merger Agreement. Each Founder will cause its applicable Founder Newco to
convert an adequate number of the Founder Shares held by it into an equal
number of shares of United Class A Stock in order to ensure that, after
giving effect to the Founder Newco Mergers and the contribution contemplated
by Section 2.2(a), New United will not own 50% or more of the voting power of
United prior to the consummation of the United/New United Merger.

restated as set forth in EXHIBITS 2.1(b)-1 and 2.1(b)-2, respectively.

                  (c) Immediately prior to the Closing, one or more

between each such Controlling Principal and United, in the form attached

and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the order
set forth below (and otherwise substantially concurrently):

                  (a) (i) Schneider will contribute, convey, transfer, assign
and deliver to New United, free and clear of all Liens and Restrictions, one
share of United Class A Stock, together with the right to receive all unpaid
dividends and distributions declared or otherwise payable with respect to
such share of United Class A Stock and associated stock purchase rights, if

contribution, (ii) Liberty Global will contribute, convey, transfer, assign
and deliver, or cause to be contributed, conveyed, transferred, assigned and
delivered, to New United, free and clear of all Liens and Restrictions, all,
but not less than all, of the shares of United Class B Stock held by Liberty
Global as indicated next to Liberty Global's name on SCHEDULE 2.2 hereto (the
"LIBERTY GLOBAL SHARES"), together with the right to receive all unpaid
dividends and distributions declared or otherwise payable with respect to
such Liberty Global Shares and associated stock purchase rights, if any, and
New United shall accept all, but not less than all, the Liberty Global Shares
and issue and deliver to Liberty Global, or to the applicable Contributing
Party or Contributing Parties, in exchange therefor a number of shares of New
United Class C Stock equal to the number of Liberty Global Shares so
contributed (the "LIBERTY GLOBAL CONSIDERATION SHARES"), (iii) Liberty will
contribute, convey, transfer, assign and deliver, or cause to be contributed,
conveyed, transferred, assigned and delivered, to New United, free and clear
of all Liens and Restrictions, all, but not less than all, of the Note

distributions declared or otherwise payable with respect to such Note Shares
and associated stock purchase rights, if any, and New United shall accept
all, but not less than all, the Note Shares and issue and deliver to Liberty,
or to the applicable Contributing Party or Contributing Parties, in exchange
therefor a number of shares of New United Class C Stock equal to the number

shares of United Class A Stock. Immediately prior to the contributions
described in clauses (ii) and (iii) of the previous sentence, there shall be
no outstanding shares of capital stock or other securities or ownership

held, beneficially and of record, by Schneider.

                  (b) The Founders and New United will cause each of the
Founder Newcos to merge with and into New United (each, a "FOUNDER NEWCO

(the "FOUNDER CONSIDERATION SHARES"). Each of these mergers will be
consummated pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger substantially in the
form attached hereto as EXHIBIT 2.2(b) (each, a "FOUNDER NEWCO MERGER
AGREEMENT"). Prior to or simultaneous with the Founder Newco Mergers, any
Liens and Restrictions on shares of United Common Stock held by each Founder
Newco, including as set forth in Section 5.7 of the Founder Disclosure
Schedule, shall be fully and unconditionally released (without any liability
whatsoever to New United or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) in
accordance with instruments and documents that are reasonably satisfactory to
New United and the Liberty Parties and, from and after the Founder Newco
Mergers, such shares of United Common Stock shall be free and clear of any
Liens or Restrictions whatsoever. New United will be the surviving entity in
each of the Founder Newco Mergers.

                  (c) United, New United and United/New United Merger Sub
shall effect the United/New United Merger, as described in Section 2.5 below.

                                    thereof) and all of Liberty Sub's rights and
                                    obligations under the Belmarken Loan
                                    Agreements; and

                           (ii)     an amount of cash equal to US $200,000,000
                                    (the "CASH CONTRIBUTION"); and

                           (iii)    all of the Liberty UPC Bonds or, in the
                                    event of any refinancing or restructuring
                                    of, or similar transaction with respect to,
                                    any of UPC's indebtedness, the proceeds, if
                                    any, received in exchange for any of the
                                    Liberty UPC Bonds in such transaction (the
                                    "RESTRUCTURING PROCEEDS");

and New United shall issue and deliver to Liberty Media or the applicable
Contributing Party or Contributing Parties at the Closing, the following
shares of New United Class C Stock (the "LIBERTY CONTRIBUTION SHARES"):

                                    Liberty Sub's rights and obligations under
                                    the Belmarken Loan Agreements to New United

Belmarken Notes Value PLUS the amount of the Cash Contribution PLUS the
Liberty UPC Bond Cost PLUS US $20,000,000 (such sum, the "LIBERTY
CONTRIBUTION VALUE"), by the sum of the total number of Liberty Contribution
Shares determined in accordance with clauses (1), (2) and (3) above PLUS
11,976,048 (such sum, the "TOTAL LIBERTY SHARES"), is greater than US $5.00,
New United shall issue and deliver to Liberty at the Closing a sufficient
number of additional shares of New United Class C Stock (the "ADDITIONAL
LIBERTY SHARES") so that the quotient obtained by dividing the Liberty
Contribution Value BY the sum of the Total Liberty Shares PLUS the Additional
Liberty Shares is equal to US $5.00 and (B) if the quotient obtained by
dividing the Liberty Contribution Value BY the Total Liberty Shares is less
than US $5.00, the number of Liberty Contribution Shares issued and delivered
by New United to Liberty pursuant to this Section 2.2(d) shall be reduced by
a number of shares of New United Class C Stock so that the quotient obtained
by dividing the Liberty Contribution Value BY the number of Liberty
Contribution Shares issued and delivered to Liberty by New United is equal to
US $5.00. For purposes of each provision of this Agreement other than this
Section 2.2(d) any Additional Liberty Shares issued and delivered pursuant to
this Section 2.2(d) shall be deemed to be Liberty Contribution Shares.

                  (e) Liberty Media, LMI and New United will enter into an
agreement pursuant to which New United will acknowledge that Liberty, LMI and
their respective Affiliates are intended beneficiaries of the covenants and
agreements set forth in Sections 7.11 and 11.15 of the Loan Agreement, dated
as of May 25, 2001, among Belmarken Holding B.V., UPC, UPC Internet Holding
B.V. and Liberty Sub, and New United will agree that it will not amend,
modify or waive in any respect or terminate any of such covenants or
agreements without the prior written consent of Liberty and LMI (the "NO
WAIVER AGREEMENT").

                  (f) If Liberty or Liberty Global causes any Person to make
all or part of the contributions described in clauses (a) or (d) above, each
such Person shall become a party to this Agreement and the applicable
Transaction Documents (each such Person, a "CONTRIBUTING PARTY").

         2.3 REPAYMENT OF INDEBTEDNESS.

                  (a) Except as contemplated by the Notes Tender Letter
Agreement, at the Closing, immediately following the consummation of the
transactions set forth in Section 2.2, or such later date as may be acceptable
to United, Liberty shall repay, or cause to be repaid, in full the unpaid
balance of the principal amount of the $310,000,000 Notes together with all
accrued and unpaid interest thereon (the "NOTE REPAYMENT AMOUNT") to UIPI either
by the delivery of cash or, as described below, Liberty 2009 Notes, or such
other form of consideration as may be acceptable to United. Upon receipt of the
Note Repayment Amount or, if earlier, upon the assumption by New United of the
obligations represented by the $310,000,000 Notes, United shall irrevocably
release, and shall cause each of its Controlled Affiliates that is a beneficiary
of Liberty Media's guaranty of the repayment of the indebtedness evidenced by
the $310,000,000 Notes (the "LIBERTY GUARANTY") to irrevocably release, Liberty
from all of its obligations under the Liberty Guaranty. Notwithstanding anything
contained in the December 7 Letter Agreement, the $310,000,000 Notes or the
Liberty Guaranty and except as contemplated by the Notes Tender Letter
Agreement, (i) the balance of the indebtedness evidenced by the $310,000,000
Notes shall not be due and payable until the Closing Date or such later date as
may be acceptable to United or as contemplated by the Notes Tender Letter
Agreement; provided, however, that if this Agreement is terminated without the
occurrence of the Closing, then, except as contemplated by the Notes Tender
Letter Agreement, the balance of such indebtedness will be due and payable in
cash on the date of termination of this Agreement or such later date as may be
acceptable to United, (ii) prior to the Closing, Liberty Argentina may assign
the $310,000,000 Notes, in whole or in part, to Liberty and (iii) Liberty may
repay, or cause to be repaid, the balance of the indebtedness evidenced by the
$310,000,000 Notes, in whole or in part, by the delivery of Liberty 2009 Notes,
or such other form of consideration as may be acceptable to United or as
contemplated by the Notes Tender Letter Agreement, to UIPI at the Closing or
such later date as may be acceptable to United or as contemplated by the Notes
Tender Letter Agreement. If Liberty repays, or causes to be repaid, any or all
of the balance of the indebtedness evidenced by the $310,000,000 Notes by the
delivery of Liberty 2009 Notes, (A) such Liberty 2009 Notes shall (1) except as
set forth herein, be substantially identical to Liberty's Senior Notes, due
2009, that were originally issued on July 7, 1999 (the "EXISTING LIBERTY
NOTES"), (2) not, when delivered to UIPI, be registered pursuant to the
Securities Act, (3) be issued with an aggregate principal amount equal to the
portion of the Note Repayment Amount that is being repaid by delivery of such
Liberty 2009 Notes, and (4) bear interest on the principal amount thereof at a
rate per annum equal to the market yield on the Existing Liberty Notes as of the
date such Liberty 2009 Notes are delivered to UIPI (determined in the manner set
forth on SCHEDULE 2.3), and (B) Liberty, United and UIPI shall, in connection
with any such delivery of Liberty 2009 Notes, enter into a registration rights
agreement with respect to the Liberty 2009 Notes in the form attached hereto as
EXHIBIT 2.3 (the "LIBERTY 2009 NOTES REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT").

                  (b) (i) United shall not and shall cause each of its
Subsidiaries at any time holding Liberty 2009 Notes not to, transfer any
Liberty 2009 Notes to any Person other than a Person that is a wholly owned
Subsidiary of United without first complying with the provisions of this
Section 2.3(b). If United or a United Subsidiary holding any Liberty 2009 Notes
(the "NOTES HOLDER") desires to transfer any Liberty 2009 Notes to a Person
that is not a wholly owned Subsidiary of United, such Notes Holder shall first
deliver written notice to Liberty by telecopy (a "LIBERTY NOTICE") on the fifth
Business Day prior to the date on which the Notes

                                       17
<Page>

Holder intends to transfer such Liberty 2009 Notes (the "TRANSFER DATE"),
setting forth the number of Liberty 2009 Notes such Notes Holder intends to
transfer on the Transfer Date (expressed as an aggregate principal amount) and
setting forth a time on the Transfer Date at which the Notes Holder will
deliver the Offer Notice telephonically as described in the following sentence,
which time shall be after 7:00 a.m. and prior to 8:00 a.m. (in each case,
Denver, Colorado time). On the Transfer Date, at the time set forth in the
Liberty Notice, the Notes Holder shall telephonically offer (the "OFFER
NOTICE") to sell Liberty a number of Liberty 2009 Notes (expressed as an
aggregate principal amount) equal to the number of Liberty 2009 Notes set forth
in the Liberty Notice (the "OFFERED NOTES"), free and clear of all Liens and
Restrictions, for cash in an amount per Liberty 2009 Note specified by the
Notes Holder (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount of each Liberty
2009 Note so offered).

                      (ii) If Liberty desires to purchase all, but not less
than all, of the Offered Notes, Liberty may accept such Offer Notice by
notifying the Notes Holder telephonically at the telephone number specified in
the Offer Notice at or prior to 10:00 a.m. (Denver, Colorado time) on the
Transfer Date of its intention to purchase the Offered Notes (the "PURCHASED
NOTES") for a cash purchase price per Purchased Note as set forth in the Offer
Notice (the "ACCEPTANCE NOTICE"). The telephonic delivery of a timely
Acceptance Notice shall constitute a binding obligation of Liberty and the
Notes Holder. Liberty and the Notes Holder shall, on the Transfer Date and
promptly following the telephonic delivery of an Acceptance Notice, execute and
deliver a customary agreement for the purchase and sale of the Purchased Notes,
which agreement shall contain representations and warranties on the part of the
Notes Holder that the Purchased Notes are, and will be at the closing of the
sale of the Purchased Notes to Liberty, owned by such Notes Holder,
beneficially and of record, and are not, and at the time of such closing will
not be, subject to any Liens or Restrictions whatsoever. The sale of the
Purchased Notes to Liberty shall be consummated on the third Business Day
following the Transfer Date.

                      (iii) If Liberty does not telephonically deliver an
Acceptance Notice to the Notes Holder agreeing to purchase all of the Offered
Notes, the Notes Holder may, on the Transfer Date, sell all, but not less than
all, the Offered Notes for a cash purchase price per Offered Note that is no
less than the purchase price per Offered Note set forth in the Offer Notice to
a bona fide third party. Any sale of Offered Notes pursuant to the previous
sentence shall be consummated no later than the third Business Day following
the Transfer Date. If the Notes Holder does not sell the Offered Notes on the
Transfer Date or does not consummate the sale thereof on or before the third
Business Day following the Transfer Date, the Offered Notes may not be
transferred without again complying with the procedures set forth in this
Section 2.3(b).

         2.4 CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS. If at any time after the Original Agreement
Date United or New United effects any stock dividend, stock split, reverse
stock split, recapitalization or reclassification affecting the shares of its
common stock or preferred stock of any class or series, or otherwise effects
any transaction that changes such shares into any other securities (including
securities of another entity) or effects any other dividend or distribution
(other than a normal cash dividend payable out of current or retained earnings)
on such shares, then the exchange ratios (including the number and kind of
shares) set forth in this Agreement for any transaction not consummated prior
to such event will, as appropriate, be adjusted to reflect such event.

                                    Subsidiaries operate generally (none of
                                    which has resulted or is reasonably
                                    likely to result in a United Material
                                    Adverse Effect or a New United Material
                                    Adverse Effect).

                  (h) ABSENCE OF CERTAIN DEVELOPMENTS. Since June 30, 2001,
other than as otherwise permitted, contemplated or required by this Agreement or
the other Transaction Documents, (x) the business of United and each of its
Subsidiaries has been operated only in the ordinary course, (y) to United's
knowledge, except to the extent disclosed in Section 6.1(h) of the United
Disclosure Schedule, no event has occurred and no condition exists that,
individually or together with other events and conditions, has had or, insofar
as United can reasonably foresee, is reasonably likely to have, a United
Material Adverse Effect or a New United Material Adverse Effect, and (z) there
has been no material change in the accounting methods, practices or policies of
United or any of its Subsidiaries except as required by changes in GAAP.

Licenses and all applicable Laws, and (y) have all Licenses that are required to

not had and is not reasonably expected to have a United Material Adverse Effect
or a New United Material Adverse Effect. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the operations of the businesses, assets and facilities of United
and, to United's knowledge, its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all
applicable Environmental and Health Laws, if any, except where the failure to
comply has not had and is not reasonably expected to have a United Material

                  (j) TAXES.  Except as otherwise set forth in Section 6.1(j) of
the United Disclosure Schedule:

                           (i)      Each of United and each of United's
                                    Subsidiaries identified in Paragraph A. of
                                    Section 6.1(j) of the United Disclosure
                                    Schedule (the "MATERIAL UNITED
                                    SUBSIDIARIES") has timely filed all material
                                    Tax Returns that it was required to file.

                                    no Liens for material Taxes (other than for
                                    current Taxes not yet due and payable or for
                                    items being contested in good faith and for
                                    which there are adequate reserves in
                                    accordance with GAAP on the books of the
                                    applicable entity) on any of the assets of
                                    United or the Material United Subsidiaries.

                           (ii)     Each of United and each of the Material
                                    United Subsidiaries has withheld and paid
                                    all material Taxes required to have been

                                    withheld and paid in connection with amounts
                                    paid or owing to any employee, independent
                                    contractor or other third party.

                           (iii)    No material deficiencies for any Taxes have
                                    been proposed, asserted or assessed against
                                    United or any of the Material United
                                    Subsidiaries that are not adequately
                                    reserved for in accordance with GAAP in all
                                    cases applied on a consistent basis. No Tax
                                    Returns of United or any of the Material
                                    United Subsidiaries are currently the
                                    subject of an audit.

                           (iv)     None of United or the Material United
                                    Subsidiaries has any current non-contingent
                                    liability for the Taxes of any Person (other
                                    than United and its Subsidiaries) under
                                    Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-6 (or
                                    any similar provision of state, local, or
                                    foreign law), as a transferee or successor,
                                    by Contract, or otherwise.

                           (v)      If the income of United or any of the
                                    Material United Subsidiaries was required
                                    under federal, state, local, or foreign tax
                                    rules, to be included on a consolidated,
                                    unitary, combined or other such Tax Return
                                    filed by a Person other than any of United
                                    or the Material United Subsidiaries, each
                                    such group has filed all material Tax
                                    Returns that it was required to file with
                                    respect to United or any of the Material
                                    United Subsidiaries for each period during
                                    which United or any of the Material United
                                    Subsidiaries was a member of such group. All
                                    such material Tax Returns were correct and
                                    complete in all material respects insofar as
                                    they relate to United and the Material
                                    United Subsidiaries. All material Taxes owed
                                    by such group with respect to United and the
                                    Material United Subsidiaries (whether or not
                                    shown on a Tax Return) have been paid for
                                    each taxable period during which United or
                                    any of the Material United Subsidiaries was
                                    a member of its respective group.

                           (vi)     The normal period within which to examine
                                    and/or assess Taxes on the income of United
                                    or any of the Material United Subsidiaries
                                    has not been extended with respect to any
                                    such Person by waiver of, or agreement to
                                    extend, the applicable statute of
                                    limitations or otherwise.

                           (vii)    Neither United nor any of the Material
                                    United Subsidiaries has filed a consent
                                    under Section 341(f) of the Code.

                           (viii)   Neither United nor any of the Material
                                    United Subsidiaries has made any payments,
                                    nor are any of them obligated to make any

                                    substituted in each instance in which the
                                    term "10 percent" appears in Section 1-02(w)
                                    of Regulation S-X.

                  (k) CONTRACTS AND COMMITMENTS. Except for Contracts entered
into after June 30, 2001 that are disclosed in Section 6.1(k) of the United
Disclosure Schedule, all Contracts to which United or any of its Subsidiaries is
a party or by which any of them or their respective businesses or assets are
bound that are to be performed in whole or in part after the date hereof and
that are required to be filed with the Commission as "material contracts"
pursuant to Item 601 of Regulation S-K have been filed with the United 2001
Commission Filings. Except as disclosed in Section 6.1(k) of the United
Disclosure Schedule, there is no material Contract or Judgment binding upon
United or any of its Subsidiaries (i) that has had or could reasonably be
expected to have the effect of prohibiting or materially impairing any current
business practice of, or the conduct of business as currently conducted by,
United or its Subsidiaries or limiting the right of United or any of its
Subsidiaries to compete in any line of business, (ii) that purports to or would
bind New United or any of its Subsidiaries or any of the Liberty Parties or any
of their respective Affiliates after giving effect to the transactions
contemplated hereby or (iii) in respect of which, whether before or after giving

Documents, any act or omission of any of the Liberty Parties or any of their
respective Affiliates would result in a violation or breach thereof, or

permit any Person to declare, a default or event of default thereunder, or give
rise to any right of termination, cancellation, amendment,

limitation, any obligation to, or to offer to, repurchase, prepay, repay or

Subsidiaries has fulfilled in all material respects, or taken all actions
necessary to enable it to fulfill in all material respects when due, its
obligations under each of such Contracts to which it is a party, and none of
United or any or its Subsidiaries is in breach or violation of, or in default
(with or without the giving of notice or lapse of time or both) under any of
such Contracts, which breach, violation or default individually or in the
aggregate would reasonably be expected to have a United Material Adverse
Effect or a New United Material Adverse Effect.

                  (l) INTANGIBLE PROPERTY. Except as set forth in the United
2001 Commission Filings or Section 6.1(l) of the United Disclosure Schedule, one

possesses legally enforceable rights to use, all Intellectual Property that is
used in the business of United and its Subsidiaries as currently conducted,
except to the extent that the failure to have such rights has not had and is not
reasonably likely to have a United Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth
in the United 2001 Commission Filings or Section 6.1(l) of the United Disclosure
Schedule and except, in the case of clauses (iii) and (iv), to the extent that
any of the following has not had and is not reasonably likely to have a United
Material Adverse Effect, (i) neither United nor any of its Subsidiaries has

respect to any patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights or
other Intellectual Property used or owned by United or any of its Subsidiaries,
(ii) neither United nor any of its Subsidiaries has any knowledge that United or
any of its Subsidiaries is infringing upon or otherwise violating, or has
infringed upon or otherwise violated, the rights of any third party with respect
to any patent, trademark, trade name, service mark, copyright or other
Intellectual Property, (iii) no current or former employee of United or any of
its Subsidiaries is or was a party to any confidentiality agreement and/or

or any of its Subsidiaries is currently using or has in the past used without

                  (m) INTERESTED PARTY TRANSACTIONS. Except to the extent
reflected in the United 2001 Commission Filings, Section 6.1(m) of the United
Disclosure Schedule lists all transactions between United or any of its
Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any director, executive officer (or immediate

would not have (1) a Material Adverse Effect on New United and its Subsidiaries,
taken as a whole, or (2) a material adverse effect on the ability of New United
to perform its obligations under, and consummate the transactions contemplated
by, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (each of clauses (1) and

                                    Documents to which it is a party.

                  (h) ABSENCE OF CERTAIN DEVELOPMENTS. Since the date of the
most recent balance sheet included in the Available New United Commission
Filings, other than as otherwise permitted, contemplated or required by this
Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, (i) the business of New United and
each of its Subsidiaries has been operated only in the ordinary course, (ii) no
event has occurred and no condition exists that, individually or together with
other events and conditions, has had or, insofar as New United can reasonably
foresee, is reasonably likely to have, a New United Material Adverse Effect, and
(iii) there has been no change in the accounting methods, practices or policies
of New United or any of its Subsidiaries.

                  (i) LEGAL COMPLIANCE. New United and its Subsidiaries (x) are
in compliance with, and have conducted their respective businesses so as to
comply with, the terms of their respective Licenses and all applicable Laws, and
(y) have all Licenses that are required to operate their respective businesses,
except in such cases where the failure to so comply or to have such Licenses,
either individually or in the aggregate, has not had and is not reasonably
expected to have a New United Material Adverse Effect. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the operations of the businesses, assets and
facilities of New United and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all
applicable Environmental and Health Laws, if any, except where the failure to
comply has not had and is not reasonably expected to have a New United Material
Adverse Effect.

                  (j) CONTRACTS; NO BREACH. Each of New United and its
Subsidiaries has fulfilled in all material respects, or taken all actions
necessary to enable it to fulfill in all material respects when due, its
obligations under each Contract to which it is a party or by which it or any of
its assets are bound and none of New United or any of its Subsidiaries is in
breach or violation of, or in default (with or without the giving of notice or
lapse of time or both) under, and no circumstance or condition exists that could
give rise to, or permit any other Person to, declare a default under, any of the
Contracts to which it is a party or by which it or its assets are bound, which
breach, violation or default individually or in the aggregate would reasonably
be expected to have a New United Material Adverse Effect.

                  (k) SECTION 203 AND SIMILAR LAWS. Pursuant to the New United
Charter and the certificate of incorporation of United/New United Merger Sub,
neither Section 203 of the

                                      49
<Page>

Delaware General Corporation Law nor any similar provision of any other Law
is applicable to business combinations involving New United or any of its
Subsidiaries.

                  (l) NO INVESTMENT COMPANY. New United is not, and immediately
following the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the
other Transaction Documents New United shall not be, an "investment company"
subject to the registration requirements of, or regulation as an investment
company under, the Investment Company Act of 1940.

                  (m) REGISTRATION STATEMENT; PROXY STATEMENT. The Registration
Statement and the Proxy Statement, except for any information supplied by any
Liberty Party in writing expressly for purpose of inclusion therein, shall not
at the time the Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission,
on the date the Proxy Statement is first mailed to the stockholders of United,
at the time of the United Stockholders Meeting or on the Closing Date contain
any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading.

(xi) (A) in the case of United and its Subsidiaries that are Controlled

indebtedness, taken together with the aggregate principal amount or accreted
value of all other indebtedness incurred after the Original Agreement Date by
United or any of its Subsidiaries that are Controlled Affiliates, exceeds US
$50,000,000 other than (1) drawings under existing fixed or revolving credit

though the applicable agreement had been executed and delivered by the
parties thereto on the Original Agreement Date; (xiii) not take or omit to

the representations and warranties of United or New United set forth in this
Agreement to be untrue in any material respect if then made. Nothing
contained in the foregoing shall preclude United or any of its Subsidiaries
or Controlled Affiliates from disposing of immaterial (both individually and
in the aggregate) assets in the ordinary course of business consistent with
past practice. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary,
nothing contained in this Section 7.1(b) shall be deemed to (1) restrict
United, UPC, United A/P, UPC Polska, Inc. or Poland Communications, Inc. or
any of their respective "Subsidiaries" and "Restricted Affiliates" (as such
terms are defined in the indentures to which these Persons are party) from
taking any action if and to the extent that such a restriction would violate
the indentures binding on such Persons or (2) restrict UPC or any of its
Subsidiaries from taking any action if and to the extent that such a
restriction would violate the Belmarken Loan Agreements or UPC's Senior
Secured Credit Facility dated as of October 26, 2000. United shall promptly
after obtaining knowledge thereof notify Liberty of the occurrence of any
event that individually or together with any other event has had or is
reasonably likely to have a United Material Adverse Effect or New United
Material Adverse Effect.

                  (c) Except as expressly contemplated by Section 2.1(a) hereof
and except with the prior written consent of each of United and the Liberty
Parties, no Founder or Founder Newco shall sell, transfer or otherwise dispose
of or create any Lien or Restriction on any limited liability company membership
interest in any Founder Newco or any of the shares of United Class B Stock or,
in the case of a Founder Newco, United Class A Stock owned by it or any interest
therein, or take or omit to take any action that would or could reasonably be
expected to result in the failure of the conditions precedent set forth in this
Agreement to the parties' obligations to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby and by the other Transaction Documents to be satisfied. Each
Founder shall promptly after obtaining knowledge thereof notify each of United
and the Liberty Parties of the occurrence of any event that has had or is
reasonably likely to have a Founder Material Adverse Effect with respect to such
Founder.

                  (d) Each party hereto shall promptly give written notice to
the others upon becoming aware of the occurrence or, to its knowledge, impending
or threatened occurrence, of any event that is reasonably likely to cause or
constitute a breach of any of its representations, warranties or covenants
hereunder as if its representations or warranties were then being made.

                  (e) United shall not, and shall not permit any of its
Subsidiaries to, take any action to satisfy a UPC Stock Purchase Option (as

<Page>

Agreement) through the issuance or delivery of securities of United or any of
its Subsidiaries (including UPC but excluding Priority Telecom) without the
prior written consent of Liberty.

                  (f) United shall take or cause to be taken such action as may
be necessary to ensure that any default under or acceleration of any of the
liabilities of United A/P or any of its Subsidiaries, or a bankruptcy or similar
event involving United A/P or any of its Subsidiaries, at any time (whether
before or at any time after the Closing) would not (with or without the giving
of notice or lapse of time or both) result in the acceleration of, or give rise
to the right to accelerate, any of the indebtedness of United or any of its
Subsidiaries. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties
acknowledge that the covenant set forth in this Section 7.1(f) shall not be
satisfied if any Contract (including any Contract evidencing or relating to
indebtedness) to which United A/P or any of its Subsidiaries is or becomes a
party or pursuant to which any of their respective assets are or become bound
restricts in any manner the actions of, or imposes any obligation, liability or
commitment on, New United or any of its Subsidiaries or United or any of its
Subsidiaries except, in the case of United and its Subsidiaries, as disclosed on
SCHEDULE 7.1(f). For purposes of this Section 7.1(f), the Subsidiaries of United
A/P shall include Austar United Communications Limited and its Subsidiaries.

                  (g) United shall take or cause to be taken such action as may
be necessary to exempt the Liberty Parties and their respective Affiliates from
the effect of any Contract among only United and one or more of its Controlled
Affiliates or among only Controlled Affiliates of United (i) that purports to or
would bind any of the Liberty Parties or any of their respective Affiliates
after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby or (ii) in respect
of which, whether before or after giving effect to the transactions contemplated
hereby, any act or omission of any of the Liberty Parties or any of their
respective Affiliates would result in a violation or breach thereof, or
constitute (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both), or permit any
Person to declare, a default or event of default thereunder, or give rise to any
right of termination, cancellation, amendment, acceleration, repurchase,
prepayment or repayment or to increased payments thereunder, or give rise to or
accelerate any obligation (including, without limitation, any obligation to, or
to offer to, repurchase, prepay, repay or make increased payments) or result in
the loss or modification of any rights or benefits thereunder, or result in any
Lien or Restriction on any of the assets of, or otherwise have any adverse
effect on, United or any of its Affiliates.

                  (h) Options to purchase not more than 17,500,000 shares of
United Common Stock ((1) which number (A) includes, and is not in addition to,
the options granted subject to stockholder approval as described in paragraph

any such options are cancelled, and the Class B Options described in paragraph
B.2. of Section 6.1(b) of the United Disclosure Schedule and (B) shall be

granted after August 31, 2001 to the Amendment Date, all of which options United
represents and warrants comply with the provisions of this Section 7.1(h)
(including with respect to the exercise prices thereof) and (2) which, except
for any Class B Options described in paragraph B.2. of Section 6.1(b) of the
United Disclosure Schedule, may only be options to purchase shares of United
Class A Stock) (and no stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards or any
other grants under United's 1993 Stock Option Plan or otherwise other than such
options to purchase shares of Common Stock) may be granted, provided that any
such option shall have a per share exercise

                                      54
<Page>

price equal to or greater than either (x) the per share average of the
Closing Prices for New United Class A Stock for the 30 consecutive Trading
Days beginning on and including the first Trading Day following the Closing
Date or (y) US $5.00 per share (unless a higher price is required pursuant to
the terms of the relevant United Stock Option Plan). Any such option shall
specify (which specification shall not be subject to change for any reason
whatsoever), at the time of the grant thereof, whether the exercise price
thereof shall be as set forth in clause (x) or (y) of the previous sentence.

                  (i) United shall promptly provide and shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause United A/P to promptly provide, Liberty with true
and complete copies of any notices or correspondence received by United or any
of its subsidiaries or by United A/P or any of its subsidiaries relating to any
default, acceleration or breach of, or potential default, acceleration or breach
of, or dispute regarding, any material Contract evidencing or securing any
outstanding indebtedness of United or any of its subsidiaries or United A/P or
any of its subsidiaries or pursuant to which any such outstanding indebtedness
was incurred.

stockholders (the "UNITED STOCKHOLDERS MEETING") to be held as promptly as
practicable for the purpose of considering and voting upon the United/New
United Merger and each other matter required to be approved by such
stockholders in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or by
the other Transaction Documents, and shall submit the same to its
stockholders for their approval. United will, through its Board of Directors,
recommend to its stockholders the approval of the United/New United Merger

United/New United Merger and each such other matter. Liberty Global will not
transfer record or beneficial ownership of any United Class B Stock prior to
the Closing except to a Controlled Affiliate of Liberty and unless the
transferee, simultaneous with such transfer, executes a counterpart to this
Agreement and thereupon becomes bound hereby to the same extent as Liberty
Global (including the obligation, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to take any actions that Liberty
Global is required to take at the Closing). No amendment to or modification
or waiver of any of the provisions of any of the Transaction Documents shall
be authorized, recommended or approved without the prior written consent of
the Liberty Parties.

promptly of the receipt of any comments from the Commission or its staff or
any other government officials and of any request by the Commission or its
staff or such other government officials for amendments or supplements to the
Registration Statement, the Proxy Statement or any filing incorporated

Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby to

Securities Act and the Exchange Act. To the extent information regarding any
Liberty Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries is required for the
preparation of the Proxy Statement or Registration Statement, the Liberty
Parties shall promptly provide such information to United and New United upon
request.

                  (b) Until consummation of the transactions contemplated by

from and against the amount of any Adjustments that arise from such

statute of limitations. The covenants and agreements made by each party in
this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents will survive the Closing
without limitation (except pursuant to their terms). Any representation,
warranty or covenant that is the subject of a claim or dispute asserted in
writing prior to the expiration of the applicable of the above-stated periods
shall survive with respect to such claim or dispute until the final
resolution thereof.

of such claim for indemnification being given to the applicable Liberty Party
within the appropriate survival period referred to in Section 15.1, such
Liberty Party, severally and not jointly, hereby agrees to indemnify and hold
New United and its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents,
successors and assigns (collectively, the "LIBERTY MEDIA INDEMNIFIED
PARTIES") harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages,
deficiencies, and obligations ("LOSSES") resulting from, based upon, arising

proceedings, demands, judgments, assessments, fines, interest, penalties,
costs and expenses (including amounts reasonably paid in settlement and
reasonable legal, accounting, experts and other fees, costs and expenses)
("CLAIMS") incident or relating to or resulting from, (a) any inaccuracy in
or any breach of any representation or warranty of such Liberty Party
contained in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered by or on behalf
of such Liberty Party pursuant to this Agreement, (b) any nonperformance or
breach of any covenant or agreement of such Liberty Party contained in this

                                       74

<Page>

based upon information provided by or on behalf of such Liberty Party in
writing expressly for purposes of inclusion in the Proxy Statement or
Registration Statement.

         15.3   INDEMNIFICATION BY FOUNDERS. Subject to written notice of

against any and all Losses resulting from, based upon, arising out of or
otherwise in respect of, and all Claims incident or relating to or resulting
from (a) any inaccuracy in or any breach of any representation or warranty of
such Founder contained in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered by
or on behalf of such Founder or its Founder Newco pursuant to this Agreement
or the applicable Founder Newco Merger Agreement, (b) any nonperformance or
breach of any covenant or agreement of such Founder contained in this

made, not misleading to the extent that such untrue statement or omission was
based upon information provided by or on behalf of such Founder in writing
expressly for purposes of inclusion in the Proxy Statement or Registration
Statement.

         15.4   INDEMNIFICATION BY NEW UNITED AND UNITED. Subject to written
notice of such claim for indemnification being given to New United within the
appropriate survival period referred to in Section 15.1, New United hereby
agrees to indemnify and hold each Liberty Party and their respective
directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents, successors and assigns
(collectively, the "NEW UNITED INDEMNIFIED PARTIES") harmless from and
against any and all Losses resulting from, based upon, arising out of or

or secondary, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, known or unknown,

of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Liberty Parties
contained in this Agreement. Subject to written notice of such claim for
indemnification being given to United within the appropriate survival period
referred to in Section 15.1, United hereby agrees to indemnify and hold New
United and its directors, officers, employees, Controlled Affiliates, agents,
successors and assigns (collectively, the "UNITED INDEMNIFIED PARTIES")
harmless from and against any and all Losses

                                       75

resulting from, based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of, and

Party in writing expressly for purposes of inclusion in the Proxy Statement
or Registration Statement.

         15.5   DEFENSE OF ACTION.

                (a) Any Person seeking indemnification under Section 15.2,
15.3 or 15.4 (the "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") with respect to any third party claim,
investigation, action, suit or proceeding (collectively, an "ACTION") shall
promptly give notice of such Action to the party from which such indemnification
is sought (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY"). The Indemnified Party's failure to so
notify the Indemnifying Party of any Action shall not release the Indemnifying
Party, in whole or in part, from its obligations to indemnify under this
Article, except to the extent that the Indemnified Party's failure to so notify
actually prejudices the Indemnifying Party's ability to defend against such
Action. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled, at the sole expense and
liability of the Indemnifying Party, to exercise full control of the defense,
compromise or settlement of any such Action unless the Indemnifying Party,
within a reasonable time after the giving of such notice by the Indemnified
Party, shall (i) deliver a written confirmation to such Indemnified Party that
the indemnification provisions of Section 15.2, 15.3 or 15.4 (as the case may
be) are applicable to such Action and that, subject to the remaining provisions
of this Article XV, the Indemnifying Party will indemnify such Indemnified Party
in respect of such Action pursuant to the terms of Section 15.2, 15.3 or 15.4
(as the case may be), (ii) notify such Indemnified Party in writing of the
Indemnifying Party's intention to assume the defense thereof, and (iii) retain
legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party to conduct the
defense of such Action.

                (b) The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall
cooperate with the party assuming the defense, compromise or settlement of any
such Action in accordance herewith in any manner that such party reasonably may
request. If the Indemnifying Party so assumes the defense of any such Action,
the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to
participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, or settlement thereof,
but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be the expense of such
Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party has specifically agreed to
pay such fees and expenses, (ii) any relief other than the payment of money
damages is sought against the Indemnified Party or (iii) the Indemnified Party
shall have been advised by its counsel that there may be one or more legal
defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those
available to the Indemnifying Party or that there may be a conflict of interest
between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in the conduct of the
defense of such Action (in either of which cases the Indemnifying Party shall
not have the right to direct the defense, compromise or settlement of

                                       76

<Page>

such Action on behalf of the Indemnified Party), and in any such case the
reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the
Indemnifying Party, it being understood and agreed, however, that the
Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than
one separate firm of attorneys at any time for the Indemnified Party together
with its Affiliates, unless there shall be a conflict of interest between the
Indemnified Party and an Affiliate thereof, in which case the Indemnifying
Party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than an aggregate
of two separate firms of attorneys at any time for the Indemnified Party and
its Affiliates. No Indemnified Party shall settle or compromise or consent to
entry of any judgment with respect to any such Action for which it is
entitled to indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent of
the Indemnifying Party, unless the Indemnifying Party shall have failed,
after reasonable notice thereof, to undertake control of such Action in the
manner provided above in this Section 15.5. The Indemnifying Party shall not,
without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle or compromise or
consent to entry of any judgment with respect to any such Action (x) in which
any relief other than the payment of money damages is or may be sought
against any Indemnified Party, or (y) that does not include as an
unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant, party conducting such
investigation, plaintiff or petitioner to such Indemnified Party of a release
from all liability with respect to such Action.

                (c) If the indemnification provisions contained in this
Article XV and the indemnification provisions contained in Article XIII are both
applicable with respect to any particular matter, then the indemnification
provisions contained in Article XIII shall be controlling and shall apply for
all purposes as to such matter.

         15.6   LIMITATIONS ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR BREACH OF REPRESENTATIONS
AND WARRANTIES. No indemnification by a Liberty Party or New United under
Section 15.2 or 15.4 hereof in respect of an inaccuracy in or breach of any
representation or warranty in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered
pursuant hereto (other than, in each case, the Basket Exceptions, as defined
below), shall be due and payable (a) in respect of any individual claim
unless such claim equals or exceeds US $1,000,000, and (b) unless the
aggregate amount of such claims equal to or in excess of US $1,000,000
exceeds US $150,000,000 (the "BASKET AMOUNT"), whereupon the applicable
Liberty Party or New United, as the case may be, shall be obligated to pay
only the excess of the aggregate amount of such claims for indemnification
over the Basket Amount. The indemnification obligations under Sections 15.2
and 15.4 in respect of an inaccuracy in or breach of any of the following
representations or warranties (collectively, the "BASKET EXCEPTIONS") will
not be subject to the limitations of the preceding sentence: the
representations and warranties in Sections 4.3, 6.1(d) and 6.2(d) ("Brokers'
and Finders' Fees"); the representations and warranties in Sections 4.5
("Ownership of United Class B Stock"); the representations and warranties in
Sections 4.2 (fifth sentence only and only as such sentence relates to (1)
the certificates or articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Liberty
Parties and (2) Delaware Law), 6.1(c)(ii) (second sentence only and only as
such sentence relates to (1) the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of
United, (2) Delaware law and (3) any Contract evidencing or securing any
outstanding indebtedness of United or any of its Subsidiaries or pursuant to
which any such outstanding indebtedness was incurred) and 6.2(c)(ii) ("Consents
and No Conflicts"); the representations and warranties in Sections 4.4,
6.1(e) and 6.2(e) ("Legal Proceedings"); the representations and warranties
in Sections 6.1(k) ("Contracts and Commitments") (last sentence only) and
6.2(j) ("Contracts; No Breach"); the representations and warranties in
Section 6.1(f)(iv) ("United

                                       77

<Page>

A/P"); the representations and warranties in Sections 6.1(o) and 6.2(k)
("Section 203 and Similar Laws"); the representations and warranties in the
eighth sentence of Section 6.2(b)(i), that the shares of New United stock to
be issued pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents have
been duly authorized and when issued will be validly issued, fully paid,
nonassessable and free of preemptive rights and Liens and Restrictions; the
representations and warranties in Section 6.1(j)(ix) ("Taxes"); the
representations and warranties in Section 4.7 ("Belmarken Notes"); the
representations and warranties in Section 4.11 ("Liberty UPC Bonds"); and the
representations and warranties in Sections 6.2(g)(iii) with respect to the
absence of New United liabilities. In the event of any inaccuracy in or any
breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement or in any
certificate delivered pursuant hereto, if such representation or warranty
contains a materiality qualifier (including without limitation a reference to
a Material Adverse Effect, a Material Adverse Change, a Liberty Material
Adverse Effect, a New United Material Adverse Effect or a United Material
Adverse Effect) then such materiality qualifier shall be considered for
purposes of determining whether there has been any inaccuracy or breach
subject to indemnification under this Article XV, but such materiality
qualifier shall not be considered for purposes of determining whether any
claim pursuant to this Article XV equals or exceeds the monetary thresholds
set forth in clauses (a) and (b) above.

         15.7  INSURANCE PROCEEDS. The amount that any party may be required
to pay to another party pursuant to this Article XV shall be reduced
(retroactively, if necessary) by any insurance proceeds or refunds actually
recovered by or on behalf of the applicable Indemnified Party in reduction of
the related Losses and Claims. If an Indemnified Party shall have received
the payment required by this Article XV from the Indemnifying Party in
respect of Losses and Claims and shall subsequently receive insurance
proceeds in respect of such Losses and Claims, then the Indemnified Party
shall promptly repay to the Indemnifying Party a sum equal to the amount of
such insurance proceeds or refunds actually received, net of costs and
expenses, but not exceeding the amount paid by the Indemnifying Party in
respect of such Losses and Claims.

         15.8  EXCLUSIVE MONETARY REMEDY; NO CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. The
parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive
remedy for monetary damages with respect to any and all claims relating to
the subject matter of this Agreement (except damages resulting from the
commission of fraud with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement)
shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in Articles
XIII and XV; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 15.8 shall limit
in any way the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or
other equitable remedies to which a party may otherwise be entitled. In no
event shall any party hereto be liable to another party hereto for such other
party's lost profits, lost revenues or other indirect or consequential
damages.

                                   ARTICLE XVI

                            TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT

         16.1  TERMINATION. This Agreement may be terminated and the
transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Transaction Documents
abandoned at any time prior to the Closing (i) by the mutual written consent
of United and Liberty, (ii) by Liberty if United shall not have obtained the
Exchange Ratio Fairness Opinion and the Indenture Fairness Opinion on or
before January 15, 2002, or (iii) by either United or Liberty by giving
written notice of

                                        78

<Page>

termination to the other if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before
February 28, 2002; provided, however, that (A) if the United Stockholders
Meeting has not been held on or before February 28, 2002, but (1) the United
Stockholders Meeting is scheduled to occur on or before March 29, 2002 and
(2) the Proxy Statement was mailed to United's Stockholders on or before
February 14, 2002, then such date shall be extended to March 29, 2002, (B) if
the Closing has not occurred solely because a "Default" or "Event of Default"
within the meaning of the Indenture shall have occurred and be continuing
(other than any "Event of Default" within the meaning of Sections 6.1(a),
6.1(b), 6.1(e), 6.1(g) or 6.1(h) of the Indenture) and, as a result of the
continuance of such "Default" or "Event of Default," the condition to closing
set forth in Section 11.1 (insofar as it relates to Section 6.1(c)(ii)(z))
shall not have been satisfied, such "Default" or "Event of Default" is of a
type that is amenable to cure without violation of the terms of this
Agreement and United is, and has been since becoming aware of such "Default"
or "Event of Default," vigorously pursuing the cure of such "Default" or
"Event of Default," such date shall be extended once to the earliest of (1)
April 13, 2002 and (2) 14 days from the date that, but for the occurrence or
continuance of such "Default" or "Event of Default," all of the conditions to
Closing (except for the delivery of consideration, instruments, certificates
and opinions to be delivered at the Closing) were or could have been
satisfied, and (C) if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before
February 28, 2002 solely because an "Acceleration Notice" has been given (and
not rescinded) pursuant to Section 6.2 of the Indenture, and as a result the
condition to Closing set forth in Section 11.9 has not been satisfied, but
United is vigorously contesting such Acceleration Notice in an appropriate
legal forum in good faith, then such date shall be extended to the earliest
of (1) April 29, 2002, (2) such date that United is no longer vigorously
contesting such Acceleration Notice in an appropriate legal forum in good
faith and (3) such date that such Acceleration Notice is rescinded; provided
further, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under clause
(iii) shall not be available to United, on the one hand, or Liberty, on the
other hand, if the failure of the Closing to occur prior to such date was a
result of, in the case of United, any breach by United or any of its
Affiliates or, in the case of Liberty, any breach by any Liberty Party or any
of its Affiliates, of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or
agreements of such Person contained herein or in the other Transaction
Documents.

         16.2  LIMITATION OF LIABILITIES IN THE EVENT OF TERMINATION. In the
event of any termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 16.1, this
Agreement shall forthwith become wholly void and of no further force and
effect and there shall be no liability on the part of any of the parties
hereto or their respective Affiliates, officers or directors by reason hereof
except (i) that the provisions of Sections 2.3(a)(i) (proviso only), 7.14(b),
7.14(c), 7.14(d), this Section 16.2, Section 16.3 and Article XVII shall
survive the termination of this Agreement, and (ii) nothing herein shall
relieve any party hereto from liability for any breach by it or any of its
Affiliates of any of its or their representations, warranties, covenants or
agreements made herein or in the other Transaction Documents.

         16.3  STOCKHOLDER ARRANGEMENTS. In the event of any termination of
this Agreement pursuant to Section 16.1, Liberty, United and the Founders
will in good faith negotiate agreements providing for stockholder and
standstill obligations and containing terms substantially similar to those
provided for in the forms of Stockholders Agreement and Standstill Agreement
included as exhibits to this Agreement, PROVIDED THAT (a) the "Maximum
Percentage" or similar provision in such agreements shall be computed in a
manner consistent with the methodology set forth in Section 7.23(c) hereof,
(b) the Note Shares and any shares of United

                                        79

<Page>

Class A Stock acquired by Liberty and its Controlled Affiliates in reliance
on clause (a)(iii) of the definition of "Maximum Percentage" shall not,
pursuant to such agreements, be exchangeable into shares of United Class B
Stock as provided in Section 10(a) of the Stockholders Agreement.

                                  ARTICLE XVII

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         17.1  EXPENSES. Except as set forth specifically herein, each party
hereto shall pay its own expenses (including fees and expenses of legal
counsel, investment bankers, brokers or other representatives or consultants)
in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (whether or not such
transactions are consummated). United shall pay, or cause to be paid, (a) all
filing fees in connection with any filings under the HSR Act required to be
made by Schneider or by Liberty Media or any of its subsidiaries and (b) all
filing fees and other costs and expenses of any kind whatsoever (including

consents, approvals or waivers of, notices to or filings with any third
parties or Governmental Authorities that are required to be obtained or made
as a result of the Closing occurring on any date after November 30, 2001. In
the event of any proceeding to enforce this Agreement, the prevailing party
shall be entitled to receive from the losing party all reasonable costs and
expenses, including the reasonable fees of attorneys, accountants and other
experts, incurred by the prevailing party in investigating and prosecuting
(or defending) such action at trial or upon any appeal.

         17.2  ENTIRE AGREEMENT; RELEASE. This Agreement (together with the
Schedules and Exhibits annexed hereto) and the other Transaction Documents
contain, and are intended as, a complete statement of all of the terms of the
agreements among the parties and their respective Affiliates with respect to
the matters provided for herein and therein, and, whether or not the Closing
occurs, supersede and discharge any previous agreements and understandings
between the parties with respect to those matters, including the Original
Agreement (except for the Disclosure Schedules provided pursuant thereto),
the Letter Agreement and the August 1999 Agreement; provided, however, that
(1) the Founders' Agreement, dated as of September 30, 1999, among certain of
the Founders shall survive the execution of the Original Agreement and the
execution of this Agreement in accordance with its terms with respect to the
Founders that are party thereto, (2) the Notes Tender Letter Agreement shall
survive the execution hereof in accordance with its terms, and (3) the letter
agreement, dated September 18, 2000, between United and Liberty Media (the
"SEPTEMBER 18 LETTER AGREEMENT") shall survive the execution hereof in
accordance with its terms, except that (i) references therein to the "June
2000 Agreement" shall be deemed to refer to the Letter Agreement and the
reference in the third paragraph thereof to the "Sum of the Parts" method set
forth in paragraph 5 of Exhibit A to the "June 2000 Agreement" shall instead
be deemed to refer to the Sum-of-the-Parts method described in paragraph 5 of
the Letter Agreement, and (ii) the September 18 Letter Agreement shall
terminate immediately upon the occurrence of the Closing. Each of United, on
the one hand, and Liberty and LMI, on the other hand, furthermore, hereby
releases and forever discharges each other party and their respective
Affiliates of and from any and all claims, causes of action and liabilities
of any kind whatsoever, now existing or hereafter arising, whether known or
unknown, that arise out of or in any way relate to the Letter Agreement, its
inducement, its

promissory estoppel, equitable estoppel, breach of express contract, breach
of implied contract or breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

         17.3  GOVERNING LAW; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL, ETC. This Agreement shall
be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Colorado applied to contracts made and wholly performed in such State,
without regard to principles governing conflicts of law, except to the extent
that the United/New United Merger and the Founder Newco Mergers are
necessarily governed by the laws of the State of Delaware. Each of the
parties (a) will submit itself to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any
federal court located in the State of Colorado or any Colorado state court
having subject matter jurisdiction in the event any dispute arises out of

covenants or provisions shall become and be immediately amended and reformed
to include only such covenants or provisions as are enforceable by the court

that such covenants or provisions, as so amended and reformed, shall be valid
and binding as though the invalid or unenforceable portion had not been

amended or modified except by an instrument or instruments in writing signed
by the parties hereto. Any party may waive compliance by another with any of
the provisions of this Agreement. No waiver of any provision hereof shall be

public disclosure or publicity concerning the subject matter hereof or the

         17.9  ASSIGNMENT AND BINDING EFFECT. Except as contemplated by
Sections 2.2(f) and 7.2, none of the parties hereto may assign any of its
rights or delegate any of its duties under this Agreement without the prior

Agreement shall be binding on, and shall inure to the benefit of, the
respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties.

         17.10  NO BENEFIT TO OTHERS. The representations, warranties,
covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement are for the sole benefit
of the parties hereto, their respective Affiliates, and the respective

and they shall not be construed as conferring and are not intended to confer
any rights on any other Persons.

         17.11  COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed by the parties
hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered
shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one

         17.12  INTERPRETATION. As used herein, except as otherwise indicated
herein or as the context may otherwise require, the words "include,"
"includes" and "including" are deemed to be followed by "without limitation"
whether or not they are in fact followed by such words or words of like
import; the words "hereof," "herein," "hereunder" and comparable terms refer
to the entirety of this Agreement, including the Exhibits, Disclosure
Schedules and other Schedules hereto, and not to any particular article,
section or other subdivision hereof or Exhibit, Disclosure Schedule or
Schedule hereto; the phrase "made available" means that the information
referred to has been made available if requested by the party hereto to whom
such information is to be made available; any pronoun shall include the

the singular includes the plural and vice versa; references to any agreement
or other document are to such agreement or document as amended and
supplemented from time to time; references to any statute or regulation are
to it as amended and supplemented from time to time, and to any corresponding
provisions of successor statutes or regulations; references to "Article,"
"Section" or another subdivision or to an "Exhibit" or "Schedule" are to an
article, section or subdivision hereof or an "Exhibit" or " Schedule" hereto;
all references to a "Disclosure Schedule" shall be deemed to refer to the
relevant Disclosure Schedule provided pursuant to the Original Agreement; and
all references to "the date hereof," "the date of this Agreement" or similar
terms (but excluding (1) such references as otherwise described in Articles
IV, V and VI, and (2) references to the date of execution hereof) refer to
the date first above written, notwithstanding that the parties may have
executed this Agreement on a later date. In this Agreement, except as
otherwise specifically provided, any reference to any event, change,
condition or effect being "material" with respect to any Person or group of
Persons means any material event, change, condition or effect related to the
condition (financial or otherwise), properties, assets (including intangible
assets), liabilities, business, operations, results of operations or
prospects of such Person or group of Persons. In this Agreement, any
reference to a "Material Adverse Change" or "Material Adverse Effect" with
respect to any Person or group of Persons means any event, change or effect
that is materially adverse to the condition (financial or otherwise),
properties, assets, liabilities, business, operations, results of operations
or prospects of such Person and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, except to
the extent that such change, event or effect is attributable to or results
from (i) changes affecting the securities or capital markets or economic
conditions generally in the country or countries in which such Person or
group of Persons conduct their businesses, (ii) changes affecting the
industries in which such Person or group of Persons operate generally (as
opposed to changes affecting any such Person or group of Persons specifically
or predominantly), (iii) the effect of the public announcement of this
Agreement or the pendency of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the
other Transaction Documents, or (iv) changes in GAAP. In this Agreement, any
reference to a party's "knowledge" means such party's actual knowledge after
due inquiry of officers, directors and other key employees of such party
reasonably believed to have knowledge of such matters. Any reference herein
to a "day" or number of "days" (without the explicit qualification of
"Business") shall be deemed to refer to a calendar day or number of calendar
days. If any action or notice is to be taken or given on or by a particular
calendar day, and such calendar day is not a Business Day, then such action
or notice may be taken or given on the next succeeding Business Day.

         17.13  RULES OF CONSTRUCTION. The parties hereto agree that they
have been represented by counsel during the negotiation, preparation and
execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any law,
regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an
agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such
agreement or document.

                              AMENDED AND RESTATED
                 UNITED/NEW UNITED AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

         This AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this
"Agreement") is entered into as of the 31st day of December, 2001, by and among
New UnitedGlobalCom, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("New United"),
UnitedGlobalCom, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("United"), and United/New United
Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Merger Sub"), pursuant to Section 251
of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL").

         WITNESSETH that:

         WHEREAS, on December 3, 2001, the parties hereto entered into a
United/New United Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Original Agreement"), and

         WHEREAS,  the parties  hereto  desire to amend and restate the Original
Agreement in its entirety, and

         WHEREAS, each of the parties to this Agreement intends for Merger Sub
to merge with and into United, with United as the surviving entity in such
merger,

         NOW, THEREFORE, the parties to this Agreement, in consideration of the
mutual covenants, agreements and provisions hereinafter contained, do hereby
prescribe the terms and conditions of said merger and the mode of carrying the
same into effect as follows:

         FIRST: At the Effective Time, as hereinafter defined, Merger Sub shall
be merged with and into United (the "Merger"), with United being the surviving
entity in the Merger (the "Surviving Entity") and changing its name to "UGC
Holdings, Inc."

         SECOND: At the Effective Time, the manner of converting the outstanding
shares of the capital stock of United and Merger Sub shall be as follows:

         (a) All of the shares of United's Series E Convertible Preferred Stock,
par value $0.01 per share, that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to
the Effective Time shall be automatically converted into an aggregate of 1,500
shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving
Entity.

         (b) Each share of United's Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per
share ("United Class A Stock"), that is issued and outstanding immediately prior
to the Effective Time (except as provided in paragraph (g) below) shall be
automatically converted into and represent the right to receive, and shall be
exchangeable for one share of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share,
of New United ("New United Class A Stock").

<Page>

         (c) Each share of United's Class B Common Stock, par value $0.01 per
share ("United Class B Stock"), that is issued and outstanding immediately prior
to the Effective Time (except as provided in paragraph (g) below and excluding
Dissenting Shares) shall be automatically converted into and represent the right
to receive, and shall be exchangeable for one share of New United Class A Stock.

         (d) Each share of United's Convertible Preferred Stock, Series B, par
value $0.01 per share ("United Series B Preferred Stock"), outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Time (except as provided in paragraph (g)
below and excluding Dissenting Shares) shall be automatically converted into and
represent the right to receive, and shall be exchangeable for, a number of
shares of New United Class A Stock equal to the number of shares of United Class
A Stock that the holder of such share of United Series B Preferred Stock would
have received in respect of such share if such holder had converted such share
into shares of United Class A Stock immediately prior to the Merger;

         (e) Each share of United's 7% Series C Senior Cumulative Convertible
Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share ("United Series C Preferred Stock"),
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (except as provided in
paragraph (g) below and excluding Dissenting Shares) shall be automatically
converted into and represent the right to receive, and shall be exchangeable
for, a number of shares of New United Class A Stock equal to the number of
shares of United Class A Stock that the holder of such share of United Series C
Preferred Stock would have received in respect of such share if such holder had
converted such share into shares of United Class A Stock immediately prior to
the Merger and assuming for such purpose that United had elected to pay any
accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon by the issuance of shares of United
Class A Stock as contemplated by the Certificate of Designation for the United
Series C Preferred Stock;

         (f) Each share of United's 7% Series D Senior Cumulative Convertible
Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share ("United Series D Preferred Stock"
and, together with the United Series B Preferred Stock and the United Series C
Preferred Stock, the "United Preferred Stock"), outstanding immediately prior to
the Effective Time (except as provided in paragraph (g) below and excluding
Dissenting Shares) shall be automatically converted into and represent the right
to receive, and shall be exchangeable for, a number of shares of New United
Class A Stock equal to the number of shares of United Class A Stock that the
holder of such share of United Series D Preferred Stock would have received in
respect of such share if such holder had converted such share into shares of
United Class A Stock immediately prior to the Merger and assuming for such
purpose that United had elected to pay any accumulated and unpaid dividends
thereon by the issuance of shares of United Class A Stock as contemplated by the
Certificate of Designation for the United Series D Preferred Stock;

         (g) Each share of United Class A Stock, United Class B Stock, United
Series B Preferred Stock, United Series C Preferred Stock or United Series D
Preferred Stock that immediately prior to the Effective Time is held by New
United or that is held by United in treasury shall be cancelled and retired
without payment of any consideration therefor and without any conversion thereof
into any other securities or the right to receive any other securities.

         (h) No fractional shares of New United Class A Stock shall be issued in
the Merger.

                                       2

<Page>

All fractional shares of New United Class A Stock that a holder of United
Preferred Stock would otherwise be entitled to receive as a result of the
Merger shall be aggregated in the manner described in paragraph (c) of
Article Sixth and if a fractional share results from such aggregation, such
holder shall be entitled to receive, in lieu thereof, an amount in cash
without interest determined by multiplying the closing sale price of a share
of United Class A Stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market on the last full trading
day immediately preceding the Effective Time by a fraction of a share of New
United Class A Stock to which such holder would otherwise have been entitled.

         (i) All outstanding options to purchase shares of United Class A Stock
granted under plans listed in Section 2.5(c) of the United Disclosure Schedule
("United Stock Options") to that certain Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan
of Restructuring and Merger, dated as of December 31, 2001, by and among United,
New United, Merger Sub, Liberty Media Corporation, Liberty Media International,
Inc., Liberty Global, Inc. and each Founder (as therein defined) (the
"Restructuring Agreement"), shall remain outstanding, be assumed by New United
and thereafter be exercisable, at the same per share exercise price and pursuant
to the same terms and conditions, including vesting conditions, for a number of
shares of New United Class A Stock equal to the number of shares of United Class
A Stock for which such stock option was exercisable immediately prior to the
Effective Time.

         (j) All of the shares of Merger Sub's Class B Common Stock, par value
$0.01 per share, and Class C Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share,
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by New United shall
be converted into and represent the right to receive, and shall be exchangeable
for, respectively, an aggregate of 1,500 shares of Class B Common Stock, par
value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Entity, and an aggregate of 300,000
shares of Class C Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving
Entity.

         (k) If, after the date of this Agreement but prior to the Effective
Time, either of United or New United effects any stock dividend, stock split,
reverse stock split, recapitalization or reclassification affecting the shares
of its common stock or preferred stock of any class or series, or otherwise
effects any transaction that changes such shares into any other securities
(including securities of another entity) or effects any other dividend or
distribution (other than a normal cash dividend payable out of current or
retained earnings) on such shares, then the terms of the foregoing exchanges
(including the exchange rates and the terms of the conversion of the United
Stock Options) shall, as appropriate, be adjusted to reflect such event.

         (l) As of and following the Effective Time, (x) the Certificate of
Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Entity shall be as set forth on
EXHIBIT A and EXHIBIT B hereto, respectively, and (y) until their successors are
duly elected or appointed in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation
and the Bylaws of the Surviving Entity and the terms of the United/Liberty
Agreement (as defined in the Restructuring Agreement), the directors of Merger
Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the directors of the
Surviving Entity.

         (m) Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Agreement to the
contrary, shares of United Class B Stock, United Series B Preferred Stock,
United Series C Preferred Stock and United Series D Preferred Stock that are
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and

                                       3

<Page>

that are held by stockholders who have not voted in favor of the Merger or
consented thereto in writing and who have properly demanded appraisal for
such shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (collectively, the
"Dissenting Shares"), shall not be converted into or represent the right to
receive, or be exchangeable for, any securities of New United as provided
herein. Such stockholders instead shall be entitled to receive payment of the
appraisal value of such shares held by them in accordance with Section 262 of
the DGCL, except that all Dissenting Shares of stockholders who have failed
to perfect or who have effectively withdrawn or otherwise lost their rights
to appraisal under Section 262 of the DGCL, shall thereupon be deemed to have
been converted into and become, as of the Effective Time, securities of New
United as provided herein.

         (n) At the Effective Time, New United shall execute and file with the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment, in the
form attached hereto as EXHIBIT C, changing the name of New United to
"UnitedGlobalCom, Inc."

         THIRD:  In connection with the Merger, the following will occur:

         (a) The Merger shall become effective at the time set forth in a
Certificate of Merger, in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT D (the
"Certificate of Merger"), duly executed and filed with the Secretary of State of
the State of Delaware (the "Effective Time").

         (b) At the Effective Time, all the property, rights, privileges,
franchises, patents, trademarks, licenses, registrations and other assets of
every kind and description of Merger Sub shall be transferred to, vested in and
devolve upon the Surviving Entity without further act or deed and all property,
rights, and every other interest of the Surviving Entity and Merger Sub shall be
as effectively the property of the Surviving Entity as they were of the
Surviving Entity and Merger Sub respectively.

         FOURTH: Prior to the filing of the Certificate of Merger, this
Agreement shall have been approved and adopted by the sole stockholder of Merger
Sub, the sole stockholder of New United, and the stockholders of United as
provided in the Restructuring Agreement.

         FIFTH: Anything herein or elsewhere to the contrary notwithstanding,
but subject to the terms of the Restructuring Agreement, this Agreement may be
terminated and abandoned by the Board of Directors of any constituent entity at
any time prior to the Effective Time. This Agreement may be amended by the Board
of Directors of the constituent entities at any time prior to the Effective
Time, subject to the terms of the Restructuring Agreement, provided that an
amendment made subsequent to the approval and adoption of this Agreement by the
stockholders of any constituent entity shall not (1) alter or change the amount
or kind of shares, securities, cash, property and/or rights to be received in
exchange for, or on conversion of, all or any of the shares of any class or
series or any such constituent entity, (2) alter or change any term of the
Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Entity of the Merger, or (3) alter
or change any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement if such alteration
or change would adversely affect the holders of any of the shares of any class
or series of such constituent entity.

         SIXTH:  Surrender  and payment for  securities of United shall occur as
follows:

                                       4

<Page>

         (a) At and after the Effective Time, certificates representing shares
of United Class A Stock shall represent an equal number of shares of New United
Class A Stock.

         (b) Prior to the Effective Time, United shall appoint an agent, which
may be an affiliate of United or New United (the "Exchange Agent") for the
purpose of exchanging (i) certificates representing shares of United Class B
Stock for certificates representing an equal number of shares of New United
Class A Stock (the "Class B Consideration"), (ii) certificates representing
shares of United Series B Preferred Stock for the merger consideration
determined by reference to paragraphs (d) and (h) of Article Second (the "Series
B Consideration"), (iii) certificates representing shares of United Series C
Preferred Stock for the merger consideration determined by reference to
paragraphs (e) and (h) of Article Second (the "Series C Consideration"), and
(iv) certificates representing shares of United Series D Preferred Stock for the
merger consideration determined by reference to paragraphs (f) and (h) of
Article Second (the "Series D Consideration"). At the Effective Time, New United
shall deposit with the Exchange Agent (i) the Class B Consideration to be paid
in respect of shares of United Class B Stock, (ii) the Series B Consideration to
be paid in respect of shares of United Series B Preferred Stock, (iii) the
Series C Consideration to be paid in respect of shares of United Series C
Preferred Stock, and (iv) the Series D Consideration to be paid in respect of
shares of United Series D Preferred Stock. The certificates representing the
United Class B Stock, the United Series B Preferred Stock, the United Series C
Preferred Stock and the United Series D Preferred Stock are referred to herein
as the "Certificates," and the Class B Consideration, the Series B
Consideration, the Series C Consideration and the Series D Consideration are
referred to herein as the "Merger Consideration." Promptly after the Effective
Time, United will send, or will cause the Exchange Agent to send, to each holder
of United Class B Stock, United Series B Preferred Stock, United Series C
Preferred Stock and United Series D Preferred Stock at the Effective Time, a
letter of transmittal and instructions (which shall specify that the delivery
shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper
delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent) for use in such exchange.

         (c) Upon surrender to the Exchange Agent of its Certificate, as
applicable, together with a properly completed letter of transmittal, and
receipt by the Exchange Agent thereof, (i) each holder of shares of United Class
B Stock will be entitled to receive promptly the Class B Consideration in
respect of the shares of United Class B Stock represented by its Certificate,
(ii) each holder of United Series B Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive
promptly the Series B Consideration in respect of the shares of United Series B
Preferred Stock represented by its Certificate, (iii) each record holder of
United Series C Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive promptly the Series
C Consideration in respect of the shares of United Series C Preferred Stock
represented by its Certificate, and (iv) each record holder of United Series D
Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive promptly the Series D Consideration
in respect of the shares of United Series D Preferred Stock represented by its
Certificate. For purposes of the foregoing, any fractional shares of New United
Class A Stock that would be issuable to any holder pursuant to Article Second
(prior to the application of paragraph (h) thereof) in respect of shares of
United Class B Stock, United Series B Preferred Stock, United Series C Preferred
Stock and United Series D Preferred Stock held by such holder shall be
aggregated, and such holder shall be issued the resulting whole number of shares
of New United Class A Stock, prior to the application of

                                       5

<Page>

paragraph (h) of Article Second with respect to any fractional share of New
United Class A Stock remaining following such aggregation. Until so
surrendered and received by the Exchange Agent, each such Certificate shall
represent after the Effective Time, for all purposes, only the right to
receive the Class B Consideration, the Series B Consideration, the Series C
Consideration and the Series D Consideration, as the case may be.

         (d) If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be paid to an
entity other than the entity in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is
registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that such Certificate shall
be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and that the
entity requesting such payment shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or
other taxes required as a result of such payment to an entity other than the
registered holder of such Certificate, or establish to the satisfaction of the
Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

         (e) After the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of
transfers of shares of United Class A Stock, United Class B Stock, United Series
B Preferred Stock, United Series C Preferred Stock or United Series D Preferred
Stock. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving
Entity, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Class B Consideration, the
Series B Consideration, the Series C Consideration or the Series D Consideration
provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this Article
Sixth.

         (f) Any portion of the Merger Consideration that remains unclaimed by
the holders of United Class B Stock, United Series B Preferred Stock, United
Series C Preferred Stock and United Series D Preferred Stock one year after the
Effective Time shall be returned to United, upon demand, and any such holder who
has not exchanged its shares for the applicable Merger Consideration in
accordance with this Article Sixth prior to that time shall thereafter look only
to United for payment of such consideration and any dividends and distributions
in respect of such shares, in each case without any interest thereon.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither United, New United nor any affiliate
thereof will be liable to any such holder for any amounts paid to a public
official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws.

         (g) No dividends or other distributions with respect to the Merger
Consideration shall be paid to the holder of any Certificates until such
Certificates are surrendered and received by the Exchange Agent as provided in
this Article Sixth. Following such surrender and receipt by the Exchange Agent,
there shall be paid, without interest, to the entity in whose name such Merger
Consideration has been registered, (i) the amount of dividends or other
distributions with a record date after the Effective Time previously paid or
payable with respect to such Merger Consideration as of the date of such
surrender, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or
other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to
surrender and a payment date subsequent to surrender, payable with respect to
such Merger Consideration.
