This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Issuer Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Issuer Tender Offer Statement”) initially filed on March 7, 2007, by Liberty Media Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Liberty Media”), in connection with its offer to purchase up to 8,849,500 shares of its Liberty Capital Series A common stock, par value $0.01 per share, at a price not greater than $113.00 nor less than $105.00 per share, net to the seller in cash, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the offer to purchase, dated March 7, 2007 (the “Offer to Purchase”), as amended supplemented, and the related letter of transmittal.
This Amendment is being filed for the following purposes: (i) to announce that Liberty Media has revised the tender offer so that Liberty Media is only seeking to purchase shares of its Liberty Capital Series A common stock pursuant to the tender offer; Liberty will no longer seek to purchase shares of its Liberty Capital Series B common stock pursuant to the tender offer, (ii) to amend and restate the Offer to Purchase; and (iii) to amend and restate the form of letter of transmittal and notice of guaranteed delivery for use in the tender offer.
