If I remember right, they show 4 orcs, but Sam only kills 3. They never show what happened to the 4th orc in the theatrical release, so it would correct an 'error' that I'm sure is listed on many websites if they showed him running away to get the news/mithril shirt out (I know that Grishnak wasn't one of the 4 orcs there on the steps) in the EE.
Um..."that's for Mr. Frodo! {1} And the Shire! {2} AND THAT'S FOR MY OLD GAFFER! {3} ... Not if I stick you first! {4}.

But my point still stands. How does the Mouth get hold of the Mithril Shirt and knowledge of the Hobbits when Shagrat gets skewered by Sam and there appear to be no other Orcs left alive in the Tower? It is possible that Shagrat escapes in the EE, although that would be quite a big change.
Relying in info from the video game, one orc that was lying nearly unconscious gets up, grabs the shirt, ducks down the passage, and runs out the tunnel.
