THIS AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made as of the 28th day of May, 2004, by and between NTL Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Bryan H. Hall (the “Executive”).

WHEREAS, the Company wishes to employ the Executive as General Counsel of the Company, effective as of June 15, 2004 (the “Effective Date”);

WHEREAS the parties intend that (i) the Executive will reside in the United Kingdom and perform duties on behalf of the consolidated enterprise as its General Counsel while present in the United Kingdom, particularly with regard to the UK business, and (ii) he will travel to the United States where he will perform duties on behalf of the Company as its General Counsel, in each case upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the Executive wishes to accept such employment and to render services to the Company on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective as of the Effective Date.

2. Employment Term.

(a) The term of the Executive’s employment pursuant to this Agreement (the “Employment Term”) shall commence as of the Effective Date and shall end on December 31, 2006, unless the Employment Term terminates earlier pursuant to

Section 7 of this Agreement. The Employment Term may be extended by mutual agreement of the Company and the Executive.

(b) Title; Duties. During the Employment Term, the Executive shall serve the Company as its General Counsel and, in such capacity, shall perform such duties, services and responsibilities as are commensurate with such position. In his capacity as General Counsel, the Executive shall report to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. During the Employment Term, the Executive shall be based in the United Kingdom but shall undertake such overseas travel as is necessary for the proper performance of his duties hereunder.

During the Employment Term, the Executive shall devote substantially all of his time to the performance of the Executive’s duties hereunder and will not, without the prior written approval of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, engage in any other business activity which interferes in any material respect with the performance of the Executive’s duties hereunder or which is in violation of written policies established from time to time by the Company. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude the Executive from devoting a reasonable amount of time and attention during the Employment Term to (A) continuing legal education, including, without limitation, any and all continuing legal education efforts as may be required to remain in good standing with the bar of the State of New York (which may include attendance at seminars and other similar events) and (B) (i) serving, with the prior approval of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), as a non-executive director, trustee or member of a committee of any for-profit organizations;

(ii) engaging in charitable and community activities (including pro bono legal services); and (iii) managing personal and family investments and affairs, so long as any activities of the Executive which are within the scope of clauses (A) and (B) (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 2(b) do not interfere in any material respect with the performance of the Executive’s duties hereunder.

3. Monetary Remuneration.

(a) Base Salary. During the Employment Term, in consideration of the performance by the Executive of the Executive’s obligations hereunder to the Company and its parents, subsidiaries, associated and affiliated companies and joint ventures (collectively, the “Company Affiliated Group”) in any capacity (including any services as an officer, director, employee, member of any Board committee or management committee or otherwise), the Company shall cause to be paid to the Executive an annual salary of £300,000 (the “Base Salary”), which shall accrue on a daily basis. The Base Salary shall be payable in accordance with normal payroll practices in effect from time to time for senior management generally; provided that the Executive may designate at one time each year a percentage of cash compensation, not yet paid, to be paid in U.S. Dollars, with the exchange rate set on the date that such designation is made by reference to the noon buying rate as quoted by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The Executive shall receive no additional compensation for services that he provides to the Company Affiliated Group other than as set forth herein.

(b) Annual Cash Bonus. During each fiscal year of the Company that the Employment Term is in effect, the Executive shall be eligible to earn a cash bonus in

the sole discretion of the Board of (at target) 75%, but subject to a maximum of 150%, of Base Salary (prorated for any partial fiscal year) (the “Annual Cash Bonus”). In addition, the Company shall cause the Executive to participate in the NTL Group Long Term Incentive Plan.

(c) Expatriate Package. During the Employment Term and for any period during which the Executive is required by the Company to live in the United Kingdom, the Executive and his family shall have the right to receive the benefits of the Company’s standard expatriate benefits package (as applied to comparable United States expatriate employees of the Company), but in any event such benefits will be consistent with the terms set forth in Appendix A hereto. Tax equalization shall be consistent with existing Company Tax Equalization Policy, attached as Appendix B hereto, and incorporated by reference.

4. Equity-Based Compensation.

During the Employment Term, the Executive shall be eligible to receive options to purchase common stock of the Company in addition to the options described in Appendix C at such exercise prices, schedules as to exercisability and other terms and conditions as determined in the sole discretion of the Board or its Compensation Committee under the Amended and Restated NTL 2004 Stock Incentive Plan or successor plan.

5. Benefits.

(a) During the Employment Term, the Executive shall be entitled to participate in all of the employee benefit plans, programs, policies and arrangements

(including fringe benefit and executive perquisite programs and policies) made available by the Company Affiliate Group to, or for the benefit of, its executive officers in accordance with the terms thereof as they may be in effect from time to time, in so far as such benefits are capable of being provided in the United Kingdom.

(b) Reimbursement of Expenses. During the Employment Term, the Company shall cause the Executive to be reimbursed for all reasonable business expenses incurred by the Executive in carrying out the Executive’s duties, services and responsibilities under this Agreement, and reasonable expenses incurred in connection with maintaining admission to practice in the State of New York, so long as the Executive complies with the general procedures of the Company Affiliated Group for submission of expense reports, receipts or similar documentation of such expenses applicable to senior management generally.

6. Vacations. For each whole and partial calendar year during the Employment Term, the Executive shall be entitled in addition to public and statutory holidays to 25 days of paid vacation (prorated for any partial calendar year, except that for calendar year 2004, the vacation entitlement shall be 15 days), to be credited and taken in accordance with the Company’s policy as in effect from time to time for its similarly situated executives.

7. Termination; Severance.

(a) Termination of Employment. The Company may terminate the employment of the Executive in a Termination Without Cause upon 30 days’ written notice to the Executive. The Company may (at its discretion) at any time following the

giving of such notice (but not exceeding the length of the notice given) cease to provide work for the Executive in which event during such notice period the other provisions of this Agreement shall continue to have full force and effect but the Executive shall not be entitled to access to any premises of the Company or any member of the Company Affiliated Group. In addition, the employment of the Executive shall automatically terminate as of the date on which the Executive dies or is Disabled. For the purposes of this Agreement, the Executive shall be “Disabled” as of any date if, as of such date, the Executive has been unable, due to physical or mental incapacity, to substantially perform the Executive’s duties, services and responsibilities hereunder either for a period of at least 180 consecutive days or for at least 270 days in any consecutive 365-day period, whichever may be applicable. Upon termination of the Executive’s employment during the Employment Term because the Executive dies or is Disabled, the Company shall cause the Executive (or the Executive’s estate, if applicable) to be provided with death or disability benefits (as applicable) pursuant to the plans, programs, policies and arrangements of the Company Affiliated Group as are then in effect with respect to executive officers. In addition, upon any termination of the Executive’s employment during the Employment Term, the Company shall cause the Executive to be paid any earned but unpaid portion of the Base Salary and Annual Cash Bonus. Immediately following termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason, the Employment Term shall terminate.

(b) Termination Without Cause; Constructive Termination Without Cause. Upon a Termination Without Cause or a Constructive Termination Without

Cause, the Company shall, as soon as practicable following the Executive’s execution and delivery to the Company of the general release of claims set forth in Section 7(f) and, following the expiration of any applicable revocation period, cause the Executive to be paid a lump-sum severance payment of cash equal to the product of the Base Salary times 3.

(c) Termination upon Non-Renewal of the Employment Term. Unless the parties hereto agree otherwise, the Employment Term and the Executive’s employment with the Company shall end on December 31, 2006. In connection with such termination of employment, the Company shall, as soon as practicable following the Executive’s execution and delivery to the Company of the general release set forth in Section 7(f) and following the expiration of any applicable revocation period, cause the Executive to be paid a lump-sum severance payment of cash equal to one-half of the Base Salary. In the event that the Executive has not obtained subsequent employment (as a common-law employee, as an independent contractor or in any other capacity) by the end of the six-month period following the date of termination pursuant to this Section 7(c), then, during each of the six calendar months after such six-month period, the Company shall cause the Executive to be paid additional severance pay equal to one-twelfth of the Base Salary; provided, that the right to additional severance pay pursuant to this sentence shall terminate as to any unpaid portion of such severance pay when the Executive first obtains any such subsequent employment. In addition, in connection with a termination of employment pursuant to this Section 7(c), the Company shall cause the Executive to be paid a full annual bonus for the Company’s 2006 fiscal year, determined based on

actual satisfaction of any applicable performance goals during such fiscal year, with such bonus to be paid promptly after the determination of the amount thereof and without application of any mandatory deferral provisions or continued employment requirements.

(d) Upon a termination of the Executive’s employment during the Employment Term by the Company for Cause, or upon termination by the Executive with 30 days’ written notice given to the Company (other than a Constructive Termination Without Cause), the Executive shall be entitled to earned but unpaid Base Salary and benefits through the date of termination, and the Executive shall not be entitled to any other payments or benefits.

(e) Upon any termination of the Executive’s employment during the Employment Term other than by the Company for Cause, the Executive and his family shall be entitled to continued medical benefits under (and in accordance with the terms of) the Company’s benefit plans for 1 year from the date of termination.

For purposes of this Agreement:

(i) A “Constructive Termination Without Cause” means a termination of the Executive’s employment during the Employment Term by the Executive following the occurrence of any of the following events without the Executive’s prior consent: (A) failure by the Company to continue the Executive as the General Counsel (excluding a promotion); (B) any material diminution in the Executive’s working conditions or authority, responsibilities or authorities; (C) assignment to the Executive of duties that are inconsistent, in a material respect, with the scope of duties and responsibilities associated with his position as set forth herein; (D) any materially

adverse change in the reporting structure applicable to the Executive (but not including a change in the person filling the position to which the Executive reports); (E) the failure of the Company to maintain commercially reasonable directors’ and officers’ liability insurance; or (F) a Change in Control occurs and the Executive is terminated in a Termination Without Cause during the period commencing on the date of the Change in Control and ending on the first anniversary thereof. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change in Control” is defined in Appendix D attached hereto, and incorporated by reference. The Executive shall give the Company 10 days’ notice of the Executive’s intention to terminate the Executive’s employment and claim that a Constructive Termination Without Cause (as defined in (A), (B), (C), (D), (E) or (F) above) has occurred, and such notice shall describe the facts and circumstances in support of such claim in reasonable detail. The Company shall have 10 days thereafter to cure such facts and circumstances if possible.

(ii) A “Termination Without Cause” means a termination of the Executive’s employment during the Employment Term by the Company other than for Cause.

(iii) “Cause” means (x) the Executive is convicted of, or pleads guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony or to any crime involving fraud, embezzlement or breach of trust; (y) the willful or continued failure of the Executive to perform the Executive’s duties hereunder (other than as a result of physical or mental illness); or (z) in carrying out the Executive’s duties hereunder, the Executive has engaged in conduct that constitutes gross neglect or willful misconduct, unless the Executive believed in

good faith that such conduct was in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company and each member of the Company Affiliated Group. The Company shall give the Executive 10 days’ notice of the Company’s intention to terminate the Executive’s employment and claim that facts and circumstances constituting Cause exist, and such notice shall describe the facts and circumstances in support of such claim. The Executive shall have 10 days thereafter to cure such facts and circumstances if possible. If the Board reasonably concludes that the Executive has not cured such facts or circumstances within such time, Cause shall not be deemed to have been established unless and until the Executive has received a hearing before the Board (if promptly requested by the Executive) and a majority of the Board within 10 days of the date of such hearing (if so requested) reasonably confirms the existence of Cause and the termination of the Executive therefor.

(f) Release; Full Satisfaction. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no severance pay shall become payable under this Agreement unless and until the Executive and the Company execute the general release of claims in form attached as Appendix E, including where relevant a release of any statutory claims, and such release has become irrevocable; provided, that the Executive shall not be required to release any indemnification rights, rights to benefits, and any accrued rights under this Agreement. The payments to be provided to the Executive pursuant to this Section 7 upon termination of the Executive’s employment shall constitute the exclusive payments in the nature of severance or termination pay or salary continuation which shall be due to the Executive upon a termination of employment and shall be in lieu of any other such

payments under any severance or termination plan, program, policy or other arrangement which has heretofore been or shall hereafter be established by any member of the Company Affiliated Group.

(g) Resignation. Upon termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason, the Executive shall be deemed to have resigned from all positions with any member of the Company Affiliated Group, as applicable.

(h) Cooperation Following Termination. Following termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason, the Executive agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Company upon the reasonable request of the Board and to be reasonably available to the Company with respect to matters arising out of the Executive’s services to any member of the Company Affiliated Group. The Company shall cause the Executive to be reimbursed for, or, at the Executive’s request, cause the Executive to be advanced, expenses reasonably incurred in connection with such matters.

8. Executive’s Representation. The Executive represents to the Company that the Executive’s execution and performance of this Agreement does not violate any agreement or obligation (whether or not written) that the Executive has with or to any person or entity including, without limitation, any prior employer.

9. Executive’s Covenants.

(a) Confidentiality. The Executive agrees and understands that the Executive has been, and in the Executive’s position with the Company the Executive will be, exposed to and receive information relating to the confidential affairs of the Company Affiliated Group, including, without limitation, technical information, business and

marketing plans, strategies, customer (or potential customer) information, other information concerning the products, promotions, development, financing, pricing, technology, inventions, expansion plans, business policies and practices of the Company Affiliated Group, whether or not reduced to tangible form, and other forms of information considered by the Company Affiliated Group to be confidential and in the nature of trade secrets. The Executive will not knowingly disclose such information, either directly or indirectly, to any person or entity outside the Company Affiliated Group without the prior written consent of the Company; provided, however, that (i) the Executive shall have no obligation under this Section 9(a) with respect to any information that is or becomes publicly known other than as a result of the Executive’s breach of the Executive’s obligations hereunder and (ii) the Executive may (x) disclose such information to the extent he determines that so doing is reasonable or appropriate in the performance of the Executive’s duties or, (y) after giving prior notice to the Company to the extent practicable, under the circumstances, disclose such information to the extent required by applicable laws or governmental regulations or by judicial or regulatory process. Upon termination of the Executive’s employment, the Executive shall promptly supply to the Company all property, keys, notes, memoranda, writings, lists, files, reports, customer lists, correspondence, tapes, disks, cards, surveys, maps, logs, machines, technical data and any other tangible product or document which has been produced by, received by or otherwise submitted to the Executive in the course of or otherwise in connection with the Executive’s services to the Company Affiliated Group during or prior to the Employment Term.

(b) Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. During the period commencing upon the Effective Date and ending on the 18-month anniversary of the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Executive shall not, as an employee, employer, stockholder, officer, director, partner, associate, consultant or other independent contractor, advisor, proprietor, lender, or in any other manner or capacity (other than with respect to the Executive’s services to the Company Affiliated Group), directly or indirectly:

(i) perform services for, or otherwise have any involvement with, any business unit of a person, where such business unit competes directly or indirectly with any member of the Company Affiliated Group by owning or operating (x) broadband communications networks for telephone, cable television or internet services or (y) transmission networks for television and radio broadcasting, in each case principally in the United Kingdom or Ireland (the “Core Business”); provided, however, that this Agreement shall not prohibit the Executive from owning up to 1% of any class of equity securities of one or more publicly traded companies;

(ii) hire any individual who is, or within the 12 months prior to the Executive’s termination was, an employee of any member of the Company Affiliated Group whose base salary at the time of hire exceeded £65,000 per year and with whom the Executive had direct contact (other than on a de minimis basis); or

(iii) solicit, in competition with any member of the Company Affiliated Group in the Core Businesses, any business, or order of business from any person that the Executive knows was a current or prospective customer of any member of

the Company Affiliated Group during the Executive’s employment and with whom the Executive had contact;

provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive shall not be deemed to be in violation of clause (i) or clause (iii) of the foregoing by virtue of (i) rejoining Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP (or any of its successors or affiliates) as a partner, member or employee, and acting in such capacity or (ii) acting as an attorney (as partner, shareholder, member or employee) or as vice president, director or managing director or similar position at any other law firm, investment banking firm or consulting firm, institutional investor or similar entity, in each case so long as the Executive takes reasonable steps to insulate himself from the businesses and activities of any such entity that relate to the Core Businesses during any period that this Section 9(b) is in effect.

(c) Proprietary Rights. The Executive assigns all of the Executive’s interest in any and all inventions, discoveries, improvements and patentable or copyrightable works initiated, conceived or made by the Executive, either alone or in conjunction with others, during the Employment Term and related to the business or activities of any member of the Company Affiliated Group to the Company or its nominee. Whenever requested to do so by the Company, the Executive shall execute any and all applications, assignments or other instruments that the Company shall in good faith deem necessary to apply for and obtain trademarks, patents or copyrights of the United States or any foreign country or otherwise protect the interest of any member of the Company Affiliated Group therein. These obligations shall continue beyond the conclusion of the Employment Term with respect to inventions, discoveries,

improvements or copyrightable works initiated, conceived or made by the Executive during the Employment Term.

(d) Acknowledgment. The Executive expressly recognizes and agrees that the restraints imposed by this Section 9 are reasonable as to time and geographic scope and are not oppressive. The Executive further expressly recognizes and agrees that the restraints imposed by this Section 9 represent a reasonable and necessary restriction for the protection of the legitimate interests of the Company Affiliated Group, that the failure by the Executive to observe and comply with the covenants and agreements in this Section 9 will cause irreparable harm to the Company Affiliated Group, that it is and will continue to be difficult to ascertain the harm and damages to the Company Affiliated Group that such a failure by the Executive would cause, that the consideration received by the Executive for entering into these covenants and agreements is fair, that the covenants and agreements and their enforcement will not deprive the Executive of an ability to earn a reasonable living, and that the Executive has acquired knowledge and skills in this field that will allow the Executive to obtain employment without violating these covenants and agreements. The Executive further expressly acknowledges that the Executive has received an opportunity to consult independent counsel before executing this Agreement.

10. Indemnification.

(a) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall indemnify the Executive against, and save and hold the Executive harmless from, any damages, liabilities, losses, judgments, penalties, fines, amounts paid or to be paid in

settlement, costs and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses), resulting from, arising out of or in connection with any threatened, pending or completed claim, action, proceeding or investigation (whether civil or criminal) against or affecting the Executive by reason of the Executive’s service from and after the Effective Date as an officer, director or employee of, or consultant to, any member of the Company Affiliated Group, or in any capacity at the request of any member of the Company Affiliated Group, or an officer, director or employee thereof, in or with regard to any other entity, employee benefit plan or enterprise (other than arising out of the Executive’s acts of misappropriation of funds or actual fraud). In the event the Company does not compromise or assume the defense of any indemnifiable claim or action against the Executive, the Company shall promptly cause the Executive to be paid to the extent permitted by applicable law all costs and expenses incurred or to be incurred by the Executive in defending or responding to any claim or investigation in advance of the final disposition thereof; provided, however, that if it is ultimately determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction (from whose decision no appeals may be taken, or the time for appeal having lapsed) that the Executive was not entitled to indemnity hereunder, then the Executive shall repay forthwith all amounts so advanced. The Company may not agree to any settlement or compromise of any claim against the Executive, other than a settlement or compromise solely for monetary damages for which the Company shall be solely responsible, without the prior written consent of the Executive, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. This right to indemnification shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other right to

indemnification to which the Executive shall be entitled pursuant to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws or otherwise.

(b) Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance. The Company shall use its best efforts to maintain commercially reasonable directors’ and officers’ liability insurance during the Employment Term which will cover the Executive.

11. Certain Additional Payments by the Company.

Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that it is determined (as hereafter provided) that any payment (other than the Gross-Up Payments provided for in this Section 11) or distribution by the Company or any of its affiliates to or for the benefit of the Executive, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise pursuant to or by reason of any other agreement, policy, plan, program or arrangement, including, without limitation, any stock option, performance share, performance unit, stock appreciation right or similar right, or the lapse or termination of any restriction on or the vesting or exercisability of any of the foregoing (a “Payment”), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (or any successor provision thereto) by reason of being considered “contingent on a change in ownership or control” of the Company, within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code (or any successor provision thereto) or to any similar tax imposed by state or local law, or any interest or penalties with respect to such tax (such tax or taxes, together with any such interest and penalties, being hereafter collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”), then the Executive will be entitled to receive an additional payment or payments

(collectively, a “Gross-Up Payment”). The Gross-Up Payment will be in an amount such that, after payment by the Executive of all taxes (including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes), including any Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, the Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the Payment. For purposes of determining the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, the Executive will be considered to pay (x) federal income taxes at the highest rate in effect in the year in which the Gross-Up Payment will be made and (y) state and local income taxes at the highest rate in effect in the state or locality in which the Gross-Up Payment would be subject to state or local tax, net of the maximum reduction in federal income tax that could be obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes.

12. Miscellaneous.

(a) Non-Waiver of Rights.

No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar conditions or provisions at that time or at any prior or subsequent time.

Appendix B

NTL INCORPORATED
US TAX & SOCIAL SECURITY EQUALISATION POLICY
Effective 1st January 2004

A. Objective

A US tax & social security equalisation policy has been established for employees on assignment from the USA, as an employee’s actual tax liability will be different from what it would have been had the employee not left the USA. This policy only applies to employees who are entitled to tax equalisation under the terms of their Contract of Employment and/or Terms of Assignment Letter/Assignment Compensation Summary Sheet.

Throughout this policy the masculine gender has been used for simplification and is to be read in the feminine gender whenever appropriate.

The objective of this policy is to ensure that the employee pays approximately no more or no less tax/social security on income and benefits than he would have paid had that employee remained living and working in the USA.

By equalising income tax/social security costs for its employees, NTL Inc. intends that each employee shall fully comply with the tax filing and payment requirements imposed by the fiscal authorities in the host country and the USA. Assistance will be provided to the employee by Ernst & Young LLP in order to meet their Tax Return filing requirements. (Also refer to Section 3.5 of the “Expatriate Policy”)

NTL Inc. reserves the right to amend this Tax Equalisation Policy as necessary.

B. Reporting Obligations

NTL Inc. requires that all employees be familiar and comply fully with all applicable national and local laws. In connection with tax/social security matters, the following guidelines ensure that NTL Inc. and its employees will meet those requirements.

• NTL Inc. regards timely compliance with worldwide income tax/social security requirements as a mandatory obligation of each employee.

• An employee must conduct himself at all times so as to avoid charges of fiscal evasion or abuse, or of violation of local law, which could jeopardise in any way his standing personally or as a representative of NTL Inc.

• An employee is expected to exercise care and attention in minimising his liability for worldwide income taxes/social security contributions in accordance with appropriate principles of fiscal planning. An employee must co-operate with NTL Inc. to ensure that his home and host country Tax Returns are filed in such a manner as to produce the lowest possible tax permitted by law.
