Explanation of Responses:	
1. Acquired in accordance with the terms of the Liberty Global 2014 Nonemployee Director Incentive Plan for the equity portion of the fees paid to the Reporting Person for his services as a director. The number of shares was determined using the closing market price of the applicable class of ordinary shares on March 31, 2017.	
2. The share fund units represent the economic equivalent of one share of the corresponding class of the Issuer's ordinary shares. The share fund units confer no voting or other rights of stock ownership. The share fund units will be payable, in shares of the corresponding class of the Issuer's ordinary shares, in accordance with the Deferred Compensation Plan.	
3. The share fund units represent the deferral of shares for a portion of the fees paid to the Reporting Person for his services as a director. The number of share fund units acquired is based on the closing prices of the Issuer's applicable class of ordinary shares on March 31, 2017, with the value of any fractional shares deferred in cash.	
Remarks:	
The trading symbols for the Issuer's classes of ordinary shares are LBTYA, LBTYB, LBTYK, LILA, LILAB, and LILAK.
