Introduction

     This Amendment No. 3 amends and supplements the Rule 13E-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (Commission) on February 14, 2005, as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto that was filed with the Commission on March 29, 2005, and as further amended by Amendment No. 2 thereto that was filed with the Commission on April 29, 2005 with respect to UnitedGlobalCom, Inc., a Delaware corporation (UGC), and all of the outstanding shares of its Class A common stock, par value $.01 per share, that are not beneficially owned by Liberty Media International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (LMI), or any of its wholly owned subsidiaries. The securities to which this Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13E-3 relates are collectively referred to as the Subject Securities. This Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13E-3 is being filed with the Commission on May 3, 2005, by (1) LMI; (2) UGC, a controlled subsidiary of LMI; (3) Liberty Global, Inc., a Delaware corporation and currently wholly owned subsidiary of LMI (Liberty Global); (4) Cheetah Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned transitory merger subsidiary of Liberty Global (Cheetah); and (5) Tiger Global Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned transitory merger subsidiary of Liberty Global (Tiger). LMI, UGC, Liberty Global, Cheetah and Tiger are collectively referred to as the Filing Persons. This Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13E-3 relates to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 17, 2005, among the Filing Persons (the merger agreement) and the mergers contemplated thereby.

     Concurrently with the filing of this Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13E-3, LMI and UGC are filing with the Commission Amendment No. 3 to their respective Schedules 14A containing the definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus, dated May 3, 2005, under Regulation 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, relating to the annual meeting of the stockholders of LMI and the special meeting of the stockholders of UGC at which the stockholders of LMI and UGC, respectively, will consider and vote upon, among other things, a proposal to approve and adopt the merger agreement and the mergers contemplated thereby. If the requisite stockholder approvals are obtained (and the other conditions to the mergers are satisfied or, if applicable, waived), Cheetah will merge with and into LMI (the LMI merger) with LMI as the surviving corporation, and Tiger will merge with and into UGC (the UGC merger and, together with the LMI merger, the mergers) with UGC as the surviving corporation. In the mergers:

  •   each LMI stockholder would receive (i) for each share of LMI Series A common stock, par value $.01 per share, held, one share of Liberty Global Series A common stock, par value $.01 per share, and (ii) for each share of LMI Series B common stock, par value $.01 per share, held, one share of Liberty Global Series B common stock, par value $.01 per share, respectively; and
 
  •   each UGC stockholder (other than LMI and its wholly owned subsidiaries) would have the right to elect to receive, for each share of UGC common stock owned by them, either (i) $9.58 in cash, without interest and subject to proration (as more fully described in the definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus), or (ii) 0.2155 of a share of Liberty Global Series A common stock (plus cash in lieu of any fractional share interest).

As a result of the mergers, Liberty Global would become the new parent company of LMI and UGC.

     A copy of the definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus, dated May 3, 2005, is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and a copy of the merger agreement is included as Appendix B to the definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus.

     LMI was responsible for all information contained in this Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13E-3 concerning LMI, Liberty Global, Cheetah and Tiger, and UGC was responsible for all information contained in this Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13E-3 concerning UGC.

     The cross reference sheet below is being supplied pursuant to General Instruction G to Schedule 13E-3 and shows the location in the definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus of the information required to be included in response to the items of Schedule 13E-3. The information contained in the definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus, including all appendices thereto, is incorporated in its entirety herein by this reference, and the responses to each Item in this Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13E-3 are qualified in their entirety by the information contained in the definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus.

     (f) The information contained in the section of the definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus entitled “Special Factors — Fairness Determinations of the Boards of Directors of LMI, Liberty Global, LMI Merger Sub and UGC Merger Sub” is incorporated herein by this reference.

     Prior to June 7, 2004, LMI was a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Media Corporation (Liberty). On June 7, 2004, in connection with the spin off of LMI, Liberty contributed substantially all of its shares of UGC common stock and related contract rights and its obligations under a standstill agreement with UGC to LMI, and Liberty distributed to its stockholders, on a pro rata basis, all of the issued and outstanding shares of LMI common stock, at which time LMI became an independent, publicly traded company. Accordingly, we have included in response to this Item 2 information relating to purchases by Liberty during the past two years but prior to the date of the LMI spin off.

     In addition to its Class A common stock, UGC has outstanding shares of a Class B common stock, par value $.01 per share, and shares of a Class C common stock, par value $.01 per share. Shares of UGC Class B common stock are convertible on a one-to-one basis into shares of UGC Class A common stock, and shares of UGC Class C common stock are convertible on a one-to-one basis into shares of UGC Class A or Class B common stock.

Table of Contents

Accordingly, we have also included information in this Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13E-3 relating to purchases of UGC Class B common stock and UGC Class C common stock.

     On April 14, 2003, a majority-owned subsidiary of Liberty exchanged 2,122 Preference Shares A of United Pan-Europe Communications N.V. (UPC) and warrants to purchase 971,118 Ordinary Shares A of UPC at an exercise price of 42.546 per UPC Ordinary Share, in exchange for 426,360 shares of UGC Class A common stock, pursuant to an agreement entered into on April 8, 2003. The per share closing price of the UGC Class A common stock on April 7, 2003, the last trading day prior to the date of the agreement, was $3.62. Liberty did not acquire any other interests in UGC common stock during 2003.

     On January 5, 2004, Liberty acquired approximately 8.2 million shares of UGC Class B common stock from the founders of UGC, including Gene W. Schneider, Chairman of the Board and former Chief Executive Officer of UGC, and certain trusts for the benefit of Mr. Schneider’s family, representing all of the outstanding shares of UGC Class B common stock, in exchange for approximately 12.6 million shares of Liberty Series A common stock and approximately $12.9 million in cash. Based on the closing price of Liberty Series A common stock on January 2, 2004, the last trading day prior to the closing of the transaction, the total value of the consideration paid to the founders was approximately $163.4 million, or $19.93 per share of UGC Class B common stock. In this transaction, substantial restrictions on Liberty’s ability to control UGC were removed.

     After January 5, 2004 but prior to the spin off by Liberty of LMI on June 7, 2004, Liberty acquired additional interests in UGC common stock, pursuant to the exercise of contractual preemptive rights and the exercise of subscription rights distributed pro rata to UGC’s stockholders. During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, Liberty acquired:

  •   27.6 million shares of UGC Class A common stock at an average purchase price of $6.86 per share, with the actual per share purchase prices ranging from $6.00 to $7.6929;
 
  •   2.3 million shares of UGC Class B common stock at a purchase price of $6.00 per share; and
 
  •   84.9 million shares of UGC Class C common stock at a purchase price of $6.00 per share.

     Liberty did not acquire any interests in UGC common stock between April 1, 2004 and June 7, 2004, the date of the LMI spin off.

     LMI did not acquire any interests in UGC common stock between June 8, 2004 and June 30, 2004 or during the quarter ended September 30, 2004.

     On December 16, 2004, a subsidiary of LMI transferred its 100% ownership interest in Princes Holdings Limited, which operates under the name of Chorus Communication Limited, to a subsidiary of UGC in exchange for 6,413,991 shares of UGC Class A common stock. The consideration in this transaction was based upon an aggregate purchase price of approximately $55.1 million, and paid in shares of UGC Class A common stock valued based upon the average of the trading prices of shares of UGC Class A common stock for the ten trading days ending on the second trading day prior to the consummation of the transaction.

     Except as contemplated by the merger agreement, LMI has not acquired any interests in UGC common stock since the Princes Holdings transaction.

Table of Contents

     As described above, on June 7, 2004, in connection with the spin off of LMI, Liberty contributed substantially all of its shares of UGC common stock and certain related contract rights and obligations to LMI. Accordingly, we have included in response to this Item 5 information relating to contacts, transactions, negotiations and agreements entered into by Liberty prior to the date of the spin off.

     On January 16, 2004, Liberty and its subsidiaries acquired approximately 15.2 million shares of UGC Class A common stock at a purchase price of $7.6929 per share pursuant to contractual preemptive rights arising in connection with UGC’s acquisition of all of the shares of UGC Europe, Inc. held by minority stockholders of UGC Europe. In addition, on January 21, 2004, Liberty and its subsidiaries acquired approximately 3.1 million shares of UGC Class A common stock at a purchase price of $7.6929 per share pursuant to these contractual preemptive rights arising after the withdrawal of minority stockholder appraisal rights relating to the acquisition of UGC Europe. Liberty paid the aggregate purchase price for these share acquisitions through the cancellation of $102.7 million of notes and the balance in cash. The contractual preemptive rights referenced in this paragraph are set forth in a standstill agreement, dated January 30, 2002, between Liberty and UGC, as modified by a letter agreement entered into on November 12, 2003 between Liberty and UGC referred to below, each of which has been incorporated by reference as an exhibit to this Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13E-3.

     On February 23, 2004, Liberty and its subsidiaries acquired approximately 6.3 million shares of UGC Class A common stock, 2.3 million shares of UGC Class B common stock and 84.9 million shares of UGC Class C common stock at a cash purchase price of $6.00 per share upon the exercise of stock subscription rights distributed by UGC, on a pro rata basis, to all its stockholders. On February 26, 2004, Liberty and its wholly owned subsidiaries acquired approximately 0.6 million shares of UGC Class A common stock at a cash purchase price of $6.00 per share pursuant to the exercise of oversubscription rights in that offering.

     Also on February 26, 2004 Liberty and its wholly owned subsidiaries acquired approximately 2.4 million shares of UGC Class A common stock at a cash purchase price of $6.9026 per share pursuant to contractual preemptive rights arising out of the restructuring of the debt of UPC Polska, Inc., a subsidiary of UGC.
