Purpose of Transaction (Item 4)
Charles W. Ergen
Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows: During the third quarter of each year, Mr. Ergen receives an annuity amount from the 2025 July GRAT, assuming that the 2025 July GRAT has not expired. The number of shares of Class B Common Stock to be distributed as an annuity payment is based in part on the price of the Class A Common Stock on the distribution date and therefore cannot be calculated until the date of distribution. In addition to shares of Class B Common Stock, the annuity payments (and their associated timing) may include, and be based upon, amounts generated from the holdings of the 2025 July GRAT including, among other things, stock recapitalizations or dividends paid or payable with respect to the shares of Class B Common Stock held by the 2025 July GRAT. On July 29, 2026, the 2025 July GRAT distributed 1,502,440 shares of Class B Common Stock held by the 2025 July GRAT to Mr. Ergen as an annuity payment. Therefore, the 2025 July GRAT has beneficial ownership of 6,497,560 shares of Class B Common Stock. The 2025 July GRAT is scheduled to expire in accordance with its terms on July 29, 2027. .Item 4 of the SCHEDULE 13D/A filed 2026-07-31

Where this comes from
Anyone who comes to own more than 5% of a class of a listed company's voting shares has to tell the SEC. A holder who may seek to change or influence the company files Schedule 13D, and has to say in Item 4, "Purpose of Transaction", what it intends to do. A holder with no such intent, such as many index and passive funds, may file the shorter Schedule 13G. Both are amended when the stake changes, including when it falls below 5%.
Every row here is one of those filings, linked to the filing itself. Percentages and share counts are exactly as the holder filed them, for the holder the filing names; an amendment showing a lower figure is shown as filed. Item 4 text is quoted word for word. Where a 13D's Item 4 contains a sentence stating a definite intent to influence the company, that sentence is marked and quoted; the page does not describe the holder or its motives beyond the words it filed. Nothing here is investment advice.
