7.2 The Executive’s salary shall accrue from day to day and be payable by equal monthly instalments in arrears on or about the 26th of each month.

Virgin Media Limited Executive Service Agreement Page 4 of 24

7.3 Subject to clause 7.1, the Executive’s salary shall be reviewed once in every year. The undertaking of a salary review does not confer a contractual right (whether express or implied) to any increase in salary and the Executive acknowledges that any salary increase is at the discretion of the Company.

7.4 The Executive is eligible to participate in such bonus scheme as the Group may from time to time nominate subject to the rules of such scheme as amended from time to time. The payment of any bonus together with any amount payable is at the Group’s absolute discretion and may from time to time be determined by the Group. A bonus if awarded may be in cash, shares (restricted or otherwise) of Virgin Media Inc. or options or phantom options over such shares or a mixture thereof at the discretion of the Compensation Committee. Any bonus payment will not be part of the contractual remuneration or fixed salary hereunder. Details of the bonus scheme will be communicated to the Executive separately.

7.5 The entitlement to and payment of any bonus is conditional upon the Executive being employed and not having given notice on the last calendar day of the month in which the bonus is paid (currently March). The Executive acknowledges that the termination of the Executive’s employment whether lawful or unlawful prior to the last calendar day of the relevant bonus period shall not in any circumstance give rise to a claim by the Executive for compensation in lieu of such bonus or compensation to cover the loss of opportunity to earn such bonus. In the event that the Company improves this policy for senior executives, it will consider application of that policy to the Executive.

7.6 If the Compensation Committee determines that the Executive’s gross negligence, fraud or other misconduct has contributed to the Group having to restate all or a portion of its financial statements the Compensation Committee may if it determines in its sole judgment that it is in the Group’s interest to do so require reimbursement by the Executive of any payment made under any bonus scheme where: (1) the payment under that bonus scheme was predicated upon achieving certain financial results that were subsequently the subject of a restatement of Group financial statements filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and/or the satisfaction of financial results or other performance metric criteria which the Compensation Committee subsequently determined were materially inaccurate; (2) the Compensation Committee determines that the Executive’s gross negligence, fraud or other misconduct contributed to the need for the restatement and/or inaccuracy; and (3) a lower bonus payment or award would have been made to the Executive based upon the restated financial results or accurate financial results or performance metric criteria. In any such case the Compensation Committee may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, recover from the Executive, whether or not he remains in employment with the Group, the amount by which the Executive’s bonus payment/award for the relevant period exceeded the lower payment/award, if any, that would have been made based on the restated financial results or accurate financial results or performance metric criteria. The Executive agrees that he will upon demand by the Group repay to the Group the sum so demanded within 21 days of receiving the demand for payment and whether or not he remains the employee of the

Virgin Media Limited Executive Service Agreement Page 5 of 24

Group together with interest whichever is the greater of 5% or 1% above the Bank of England minimum lending rate from time to time from the date of the bonus payment or award to the date of actual repayment.

8 PENSION SCHEME

8.1 From and after 1 January 2011, the Executive will be eligible to become a member of the Company’s group pension plan (“Pension Plan”), to which the Company contributes in accordance with rules of the Pension Plan and any prevailing Company limits, as amended from time to time, and subject to the approval of the Compensation Committee if applicable. The Executive will be contracted into the State Second Pension (S2P) unless the Executive opts to contract-out or contracting-out is a requirement of the Executive’s plan. The Executive’s contributions will be deducted from monthly salary payments and passed on to the Pension Plan provider. At any time the Company may elect to suspend or terminate operation of the Pension Plan and replace them with another arrangement(s). An outline description of the terms of the Pension Plan, are set out in a member’s guide. A copy of this document is available from the People Team or may be available on the Group intranet site. Because the Executive is a U.S. employee, the Company will provide that he can make contributions to a 401(k) plan of the Executive’s choice together with the appropriate employer matching contribution in accordance with the rules governing the 401(k) plan from time to time, which the Company will procure, up to the statutory limit (or such lower amount directed by the Executive) in lieu of contributions to the Pension Plan, with any balance up to the UK Annual Allowance to be contributed by the Company for the benefit of the Executive to the Pension Plan.

This benefit will be subject to deduction of tax in line with HM Revenue & Customs requirements;

9.1.2 subject to the applicable waiting period, a salary continuance or long-term disability insurance scheme providing such cover for the Executive as the Company may from time to time notify to him;

9.1.4 a personal accident insurance scheme providing such cover for the Executive as the Company may from time to time notify to him.

9.2 Benefits under any insurance scheme shall be subject to the rules of the scheme(s) and the terms of any applicable insurance policy and are conditional upon the Executive complying with and satisfying any applicable requirements of the insurers. Copies of these rules and policies and particulars of the requirements shall be provided to the Executive on request. The Company shall not have any liability to pay any benefit to the Executive under any insurance scheme unless it receives payment of the benefit from the insurer under the scheme. The Company reserves the right to amend or withdraw any insurance scheme at its discretion from time to time.

9.3 Any insurance scheme which is provided for the Executive is also subject to the Company’s right to alter the cover provided or any term of the scheme or to cease to provide (without replacement) the scheme at any time.

9.4 The provision of any insurance scheme does not in any way prevent the Company from lawfully terminating this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement even if to do so would deprive the Executive of membership of or cover under any such scheme.

9.5 As set forth in the Letter Agreement, the Executive’s expatriate benefits will come to an end in calendar year 2010. In order to facilitate a smooth transition, the expatriate terms set forth in Schedule 3 will be provided.

14.4 The Executive is presently a director serving on the board of directors of Caucasus Protected Area Fund, a not-for-profit corporation.

22.2 The Company may pay any sums due under this clause as one lump sum or in instalments over the period until the date on which notice, if it had been served, would have expired. If the Company chooses to pay in instalments the Executive is obliged to seek alternative income over the relevant period and to disclose the gross amount of any such income and any relevant ancillary benefits to the Company. The instalment payments shall then be reduced by the amount of such income.
