Forward-looking statements

    “Safe Harbor” Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

    Various statements contained in this document constitute “forward-looking statements” as that term is defined
    under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words like “believe,” “anticipate,” “should,”
    “intend,” “plan,” “will,” “expects,” “estimates,” “projects,” “positioned,” “strategy,” and similar expressions
    identify these forward-looking statements, which involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other
    factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements or industry results to be materially
    different from those contemplated, projected, forecasted, estimated or budgeted, whether expressed or
    implied, by these forward-looking statements. These factors, among others, include: (1) the ability to
    compete with a range of other communications and content providers; (2) the ability to manage customer
    churn; (3) the ability to maintain and upgrade our networks in a cost-effective and timely manner; (4) the
    ability to implement our restructuring plan successfully and realize the anticipated benefits; (5) the general
    deterioration in economic conditions; (6) the continued right to use the Virgin name and logo; (7) possible
    losses in revenues due to systems failures; (8) the ability to provide attractive programming at a reasonable
    cost; (9) the ability to control unauthorized access to our network; (10) the effect of technological changes on
    our businesses; (11) the reliance on single-source suppliers for some equipment, software and services and
    third party distributors of our mobile services; (12) currency and interest rate fluctuations; (13) the ability to
    fund debt service obligations through operating cash flow and refinance our debt obligations; (14) the ability to
    obtain additional financing in the future; (15) the ability to comply with restrictive covenants in our
    indebtedness agreements; and (16) the extent to which our future cash flow will be sufficient to cover our
    fixed charges.

    These and other factors are discussed in more detail under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in Virgin Media’s
    Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 29, 2008, as amended, our Forms 10-Q filed with the SEC on May
    8, 2008, August 7, 2008 and November 10, 2008, and our Form 10-K to be filed with the SEC on or about
    February 27, 2009. We assume no obligation to update our forward-looking statements to reflect actual
    results, changes in assumptions or changes in factors affecting these statements.

             Note: The table above illustrates that we have hedges in place that offset adverse effects of exchange rate movements on our Bank Debt and High Yield Debt during the quarter. Some of these
             hedges do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment under U.S. GAAP. The exchange rates at end Q3-08 were £/$1.78 and £/Euro 1.26 and at end Q4-08 were £/$1.46 and £/Euro 1.05
             1 - Net debt is net of current portion. Annualized OCF is quarterly OCF multiplied by four. Net debt and Net debt / Annualized OCF are non-GAAP financial measures. See appendices for
             reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest GAAP equivalents, and the calculation of Annualized OCF.
             2 – The total movement in the fair value of foreign currency swaps in Q4-08 reflects foreign exchange movements in relation to principal and interest after taking into account non-performance risk.
             We have assumed an allocation to the principal element equal to and opposite in value to the movement on debt balances during the quarter due to foreign currency movements.

Non-GAAP measures

     Virgin Media uses non-GAAP financial measures with a view to providing investors with a better
     understanding of the operating results and underlying trends to measure past and future performance
     and liquidity.
     We evaluate operating performance based on several non-GAAP financial measures, including (i)
     operating income before depreciation, amortization, goodwill and intangible asset impairments and
     restructuring and other charges (OCF), (ii) net debt and (iii) OCF less purchases of fixed and intangible
     assets and net interest expense (FCF or Free Cash Flow), as we believe these are important measures
     of the operational strength of our business and our liquidity. Since these measures are not calculated in
     accordance with GAAP, they should not be considered as substitutes for operating income (loss), long-
     term debt (net of current portion), and net cash provided by operating activities, respectively.
     This presentation further includes another non-GAAP financial measure, Net Debt to Annualized OCF,
     which is the ratio of net debt to the quarterly OCF multiplied by four. We believe that this ratio is
     potentially of interest to our investors in assessing our cash flows and liquidity. The amounts used in this
     calculation should not be considered a substitute for measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, as
     discussed above.




24
Operating income before depreciation, amortization,
         goodwill and intangible asset impairments and restructuring
         and other charges (OCF)

     •    Operating income before depreciation, amortization, goodwill and intangible asset impairments and restructuring and
          other charges, which we refer to as OCF, is not a financial measure recognized under GAAP. OCF represents our
          operating income before depreciation, amortization, goodwill and intangible asset impairments and restructuring and
          other charges. Our management, including our chief executive officer, consider OCF as an important indicator of our
          operational strength and performance. OCF excludes the impact of costs and expenses that do not directly affect our
          cash flows. Restructuring and other charges are also excluded from OCF as management believes they are not
          characteristic of our underlying business operations. OCF is most directly comparable to the GAAP financial measure
          operating income (loss). Some of the significant limitations associated with the use of OCF as compared to operating
          income (loss) are that OCF does not consider the amount of required reinvestment in depreciable fixed assets and
          ignores the impact on our results of operations of items that management believes are not characteristic of our
          underlying business operations.


     •    We believe OCF is helpful for understanding our performance and assessing our prospects for the future, and that it
          provides useful supplemental information to investors. In particular, this non-GAAP financial measure reflects an
          additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliation to
          operating income (loss) shown below, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our
          business. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare our OCF
          with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures that have the same or similar names.

26
Net Debt

     •   Net debt is defined as long term debt inclusive of current portion, less cash and cash equivalents.
         Our management, including our chief executive officer, consider this measure as potentially of
         interest to our investors in assessing our financing obligations.
     •   Net debt is not a financial measure recognized under GAAP. This measure is most directly
         comparable to the GAAP financial measure, long term debt, net of current portion. The significant
         limitation associated with the use of net debt as compared to long term debt, net of current
         portion, is that net debt includes the current portion of long term debt. This measure also assumes
         that all of the cash and cash equivalents are available to service debt.
     •   We believe this measure may be helpful for understanding our debt funding obligations and
         provides useful supplemental information to investors. Because non-GAAP financial measures are
         not standardized, it may not be possible to compare our net debt with other companies' non-
         GAAP financial measures that have the same or similar names. The presentation of this
         supplemental information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for long term
         debt, net of current portion, or other measures of financial performance or liquidity reported in
         accordance with GAAP.

29
Free Cash Flow

     •   We define Free Cash Flow (FCF) as operating income before depreciation, amortization, goodwill and intangible
         asset impairments and restructuring and other charges (OCF) reduced by purchase of fixed and intangible assets,
         as reported in our statements of cash flows, and net interest expense, as reported in our statements of operations.
         Our definition of FCF excludes the impact of working capital fluctuations and restructuring costs as defined by FAS
         146. FCF is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe the most directly comparable financial measure
         recognized under GAAP is net cash provided by operating activities.
     •   Our management, including our chief executive officer, consider FCF as a helpful measure in assessing our
         liquidity and prospects for the future. We also believe FCF is useful to investors as a basis for comparing our
         performance and coverage ratios with other companies in our industry. In particular, this non-GAAP financial
         measure reflects an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results
         and the reconciliation to net cash provided by operating activities shown below, provides a more complete
         understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. FCF should not be understood to represent our ability
         to fund discretionary amounts, as we have various contractual obligations which are not deducted to arrive at FCF.
         Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare our FCF with
         other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures that have the same or similar names.
     •   The presentation of this supplemental information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for
         net cash provided by operating activities, or other measures of financial performance or liquidity reported in
         accordance with GAAP.

Forward-looking statements “Safe Harbor” Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 Various statements contained in this document constitute “forward-looking statements” as that term is defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words like “believe,” “anticipate,” “should,” “intend,” “plan,” “will,” “expects,” “estimates,” “projects,” “positioned,” “strategy,” and similar expressions identify these forward-looking statements, which involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements or industry results to be materially different from those contemplated, projected, forecasted, estimated or budgeted, whether expressed or implied, by these forward-looking statements. These factors, among others, include: (1) the ability to compete with a range of other communications and content providers; (2) the ability to manage customer churn; (3) the ability to maintain and upgrade our networks in a cost-effective and timely manner; (4) the ability to implement our restructuring plan successfully and realize the anticipated benefits; (5) the general deterioration in economic conditions; (6) the continued right to use the Virgin name and logo; (7) possible losses in revenues due to systems failures; (8) the ability to provide attractive programming at a reasonable cost; (9) the ability to control unauthorized access to our network; (10) the effect of technological changes on our businesses; (11) the reliance on single-source suppliers for some equipment, software and services and third party distributors of our mobile services; (12) currency and interest rate fluctuations; (13) the ability to fund debt service obligations through operating cash flow and refinance our debt obligations; (14) the ability to obtain additional financing in the future; (15) the ability to comply with restrictive covenants in our indebtedness agreements; and (16) the extent to which our future cash flow will be sufficient to cover our fixed charges.

Some of these hedges do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment under U.S. GAAP. The exchange rates at end Q3-08 were £/$1.78 and £/Euro 1.26 and at end Q4-08 were £/$1.46 and £/Euro 1.05 1 - Net debt is net of current portion. Annualized OCF is quarterly OCF multiplied by four. Net debt and Net debt / Annualized OCF are non-GAAP financial measures. See appendices for reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest GAAP equivalents, and the calculation of Annualized OCF. 2 – The total movement in the fair value of foreign currency swaps in Q4-08 reflects foreign exchange movements in relation to principal and interest after taking into account non-performance risk. We have assumed an allocation to the principal element equal to and opposite in value to the movement on debt balances during the quarter due to foreign currency movements. 21

  • 24. Non-GAAP measures Virgin Media uses non-GAAP financial measures with a view to providing investors with a better understanding of the operating results and underlying trends to measure past and future performance and liquidity. We evaluate operating performance based on several non-GAAP financial measures, including (i) operating income before depreciation, amortization, goodwill and intangible asset impairments and restructuring and other charges (OCF), (ii) net debt and (iii) OCF less purchases of fixed and intangible assets and net interest expense (FCF or Free Cash Flow), as we believe these are important measures of the operational strength of our business and our liquidity. Since these measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, they should not be considered as substitutes for operating income (loss), long- term debt (net of current portion), and net cash provided by operating activities, respectively. This presentation further includes another non-GAAP financial measure, Net Debt to Annualized OCF, which is the ratio of net debt to the quarterly OCF multiplied by four. We believe that this ratio is potentially of interest to our investors in assessing our cash flows and liquidity. The amounts used in this calculation should not be considered a substitute for measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, as discussed above. 24
  • 25. Operating income before depreciation, amortization, goodwill and intangible asset impairments and restructuring and other charges (OCF) • Operating income before depreciation, amortization, goodwill and intangible asset impairments and restructuring and other charges, which we refer to as OCF, is not a financial measure recognized under GAAP. OCF represents our operating income before depreciation, amortization, goodwill and intangible asset impairments and restructuring and other charges. Our management, including our chief executive officer, consider OCF as an important indicator of our operational strength and performance. OCF excludes the impact of costs and expenses that do not directly affect our cash flows. Restructuring and other charges are also excluded from OCF as management believes they are not characteristic of our underlying business operations. OCF is most directly comparable to the GAAP financial measure operating income (loss). Some of the significant limitations associated with the use of OCF as compared to operating income (loss) are that OCF does not consider the amount of required reinvestment in depreciable fixed assets and ignores the impact on our results of operations of items that management believes are not characteristic of our underlying business operations. • We believe OCF is helpful for understanding our performance and assessing our prospects for the future, and that it provides useful supplemental information to investors. In particular, this non-GAAP financial measure reflects an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliation to operating income (loss) shown below, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare our OCF with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures that have the same or similar names. 25

  • 27. Net Debt • Net debt is defined as long term debt inclusive of current portion, less cash and cash equivalents. Our management, including our chief executive officer, consider this measure as potentially of interest to our investors in assessing our financing obligations. • Net debt is not a financial measure recognized under GAAP. This measure is most directly comparable to the GAAP financial measure, long term debt, net of current portion. The significant limitation associated with the use of net debt as compared to long term debt, net of current portion, is that net debt includes the current portion of long term debt. This measure also assumes that all of the cash and cash equivalents are available to service debt. • We believe this measure may be helpful for understanding our debt funding obligations and provides useful supplemental information to investors. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare our net debt with other companies' non- GAAP financial measures that have the same or similar names. The presentation of this supplemental information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for long term debt, net of current portion, or other measures of financial performance or liquidity reported in accordance with GAAP. 27

  • 30. Free Cash Flow • We define Free Cash Flow (FCF) as operating income before depreciation, amortization, goodwill and intangible asset impairments and restructuring and other charges (OCF) reduced by purchase of fixed and intangible assets, as reported in our statements of cash flows, and net interest expense, as reported in our statements of operations. Our definition of FCF excludes the impact of working capital fluctuations and restructuring costs as defined by FAS 146. FCF is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe the most directly comparable financial measure recognized under GAAP is net cash provided by operating activities. • Our management, including our chief executive officer, consider FCF as a helpful measure in assessing our liquidity and prospects for the future. We also believe FCF is useful to investors as a basis for comparing our performance and coverage ratios with other companies in our industry. In particular, this non-GAAP financial measure reflects an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliation to net cash provided by operating activities shown below, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. FCF should not be understood to represent our ability to fund discretionary amounts, as we have various contractual obligations which are not deducted to arrive at FCF. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare our FCF with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures that have the same or similar names. • The presentation of this supplemental information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net cash provided by operating activities, or other measures of financial performance or liquidity reported in accordance with GAAP. 30
