in Event. After the Distribution Date, as may be determined by the Board, with the consent of a majority of the shares of Class B Common Stock, all holders of rights, except any Acquiring Person or any affiliate, associate or transferee of any Acquiring Person, may exercise their rights upon payment of the purchase price to purchase five (5) shares of our Class A common stock and/or Class B common stock, as applicable (or other securities or assets as determined by our Board) at a 50% discount to the then current market price ("Purchase Price"). Rights may be exercised to purchase preferred shares only if the Distribution Date occurs prior to the occurrence of a Flip-in Event. However, because a Distribution Date would necessarily follow the occurrence of a Flip-in Event, the rights could only be exercised for common stock or other securities as described above. Upon an issuance of Class A common stock and/or Class B common stock under the Rights Plan, additional membership units will be issued to the Company, as holder of the Class B common membership units, by Charter Communications Holding Company, LLC ("Holdco"), to mirror at Holdco the economic effect of such issuance of common stock. Holders of the Holdco common membership units that are convertible into shares of our Class B common stock will have equivalent rights which may be exercised, on generally the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Rights Plan, for additional Holdco common membership units.
