(1) Includes shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, of which Telluray Holdings is the beneficial owner. The shares of Class B Common Stock are convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis at any time. Consists of: (i) 63,790,620 shares of Class B Common Stock; and (ii) 6,699,489 shares of Class A Common Stock, for which Mrs. Ergen has sole voting power as a manager of Telluray Holdings and for which Mr. Ergen and Mrs. Ergen share dispositive power as the managers of Telluray Holdings.

 

(2) Based on 287,570,444 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding on November 27, 2020 and assuming conversion of all the shares of Class B Common Stock held by Telluray Holdings into Class A Common Stock. Because such Class B Common Stock is convertible on a one-for-one basis into Class A Common Stock, assuming conversion of all shares of outstanding Class B Common Stock into Class A Common Stock, the percentage of the Class A Common Stock that Telluray Holdings may be deemed to own beneficially would be approximately 13.4%. Because each share of Class B Common Stock is entitled to 10 votes per share, Telluray Holdings owns beneficially equity securities of DISH Network representing approximately 24.1% of the voting power of DISH Network (assuming no conversion of the Class B Common Stock).
