Noncash Investing and Financing Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we:

• acquired $550 million of property and equipment and intangible assets that were accrued but unpaid, which is a noncash investing activity

• recorded a liability of $435 million for a quarterly cash dividend of $0.1625 per common share paid in July 2012, which is a noncash financing activity

NBCUniversal entered into a capital lease transaction that resulted in an increase in property and equipment and debt of $85 million

Unaudited Actual and Pro Forma Information

The following unaudited pro forma information has been presented as if both the NBCUniversal transaction and the Universal Orlando transaction occurred on January 1, 2010. This information is based on historical results of operations, adjusted for the allocation of purchase price and other acquisition accounting adjustments, and is not necessarily indicative of what our results would have been had we operated the businesses since January 1, 2010. No pro forma adjustments have been made for our incremental transaction-related expenses.
