Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned hereby tenders to Altice USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated November 23, 2020 (the “Offer to Purchase”), and the related Letter of Transmittal (which, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively constitute the “Offer”), receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the number of shares set forth below, all pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedures set forth in Section 3 of the Offer to Purchase. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to the shares shall refer to the Class A common stock of the Company.

		Number of shares to be tendered: shares*
		* Unless otherwise indicated, it will be assumed that all shares held by the undersigned are to be tendered.

PRICE (IN DOLLARS) PER SHARE AT WHICH SHARES ARE BEING TENDERED
(See Instruction 5)

THE UNDERSIGNED IS TENDERING SHARES AS FOLLOWS (CHECK ONLY ONE BOX UNDER (1) OR (2) BELOW):

SHARES TENDERED AT PRICE DETERMINED UNDER THE OFFER

By checking the box below INSTEAD OF ONE OF THE BOXES UNDER “Shares Tendered At Price Determined By Stockholder,” the undersigned hereby tenders shares at the purchase price as shall be determined by the Company in accordance with the Offer.

☐

The undersigned wants to maximize the chance that the Company will accept for payment the shares the undersigned is tendering (subject to the possibility of proration). Accordingly, by checking this box instead of one of the price boxes below, the undersigned hereby tenders shares at, and is willing to accept, the purchase price determined by the Company in accordance with the terms of the Offer. The undersigned understands that this action will result in the undersigned’s shares being deemed to be tendered at the minimum price of $32.25 per share for purposes of determining the Final Purchase Price (as defined below). This may effectively lower the Final Purchase Price and could result in the undersigned receiving a per share price as low as $32.25, a price that is below the closing market price for the shares on November 20, 2020, the last full trading day before announcement and commencement of the Offer, when the New York Stock Exchange closing price was $32.27 per share.

SHARES TENDERED AT PRICE DETERMINED BY STOCKHOLDER

By checking ONE of the following boxes INSTEAD OF THE BOX UNDER “Shares Tendered At Price Determined Under The Offer,” the undersigned hereby tenders shares at the price checked. The undersigned understands that this action could result in the Company purchasing none of the shares tendered hereby if the purchase price determined by the Company for the shares is less than the price checked below.

		ODD LOTS (See Instruction 15 of the Letter of Transmittal)
		To be completed only if shares are being tendered by or on behalf of a person owning, beneficially or of record, an aggregate of fewer than 100 shares. The undersigned either (check one box):
		☐ is the beneficial or record owner of an aggregate of fewer than 100 shares, all of which are being tendered; or
		☐ is a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company, or other nominee that (a) is tendering for the beneficial owner(s), shares with respect to which it is the record holder, and (b) believes, based upon representations made to it by the beneficial owner(s), that each such person is the beneficial owner of an aggregate of fewer than 100 shares and is tendering all of the shares.

		CONDITIONAL TENDER (See Instruction 14 of the Letter of Transmittal)
		A tendering stockholder may condition the tender of shares upon the Company purchasing a specified minimum number of the shares tendered, all as described in Section 6 of the Offer to Purchase. Unless at least the minimum number of shares you indicate below is purchased by the Company pursuant to the terms of the Offer, none of the shares tendered by you will be purchased. It is the tendering stockholder’s responsibility to calculate the minimum number of shares that must be purchased if any are purchased, and each stockholder is urged to consult his, her or its own tax advisor before completing this section. Unless this box has been checked and a minimum specified, your tender will be deemed unconditional.
		☐ The minimum number of shares that must be purchased from me, if any are purchased from me, is: shares.
		If, because of proration, the minimum number of shares designated will not be purchased, the Company may accept conditional tenders by random lot, if necessary. However, to be eligible for purchase by random lot, the tendering stockholder must have tendered all of his, her or its shares and checked this box: ☐
		☐ The tendered shares represent all shares held by the undersigned.
