Explanation of Responses:
1. On March 9, 2018, Liberty Interactive Corporation ("Liberty Interactive") redeemed (the "Redemption") each share of its Liberty Ventures common stock for shares of common stock of GCI Liberty, Inc. (the "Issuer"). In the Redemption, Liberty Interactive redeemed (i) each outstanding share of its Series A Liberty Ventures common stock for one share of the Issuer's Class A common stock and (ii) each outstanding share of its Series B Liberty Ventures common stock for one share of the Issuer's Class B common stock.
2. Each share of Class B common stock is convertible, at the holder's election, into one share of Class A common stock, at any time for no consideration other than the surrender of the share of Class B common stock for each share of Class A common stock.
3. Includes an award of 165,684 restricted shares which vests in two equal installments on December 24, 2018 and December 24, 2019.
4. The number of shares reported as held in the reporting person's 401(k) is based on a statement from the Plan Administrator dated as of February 28, 2018, pro forma for the completion of the Redemption.
5. The reporting person is the sole trustee of the grantor retained annuity trust, for the benefit of himself, his spouse and his children.

These adjustments were approved by the Issuer's board of directors pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
