Notes:
i. The number of shares that vested on the Offer going wholly unconditional was subject to time pro-ration from the start of the performance period to 9 October 2018, the date the Offer went wholly unconditional. Withholding for tax will be operated on the cash payments received by the Executive Directors. This is the same treatment for all UK participants in the Long Term Incentive Plan and Co-Investment Plan.
ii. The number of shares that vested on the Offer going wholly unconditional was dependent on the extent of the Executive Directors' accumulated savings at the date of exercise. In accordance with the proposals under the Offer, Sky will make an additional payment equal to the difference between GBP17.28 per share and the exercise price per share multiplied by the proportion of Sky shares which lapse. This payment will be subject to income tax and NI deductions. This is the same treatment for all UK participants in the Sharesave Schemes.
iii. The consideration payable by Comcast to Andrew Griffith for shares received on the exercise of his Sharesave option granted in 2017 will be subject to deductions for income tax. This is the same treatment for all UK participants in the 2017 Sharesave.
3. Following the above transactions, the Directors have no remaining interests in Sky shares.
4. The Company's Sharesave Scheme is operated in the UK, Ireland, Germany, Austria and Italy and over 13,000 employees participate. Employees have exercised options at discounted option prices between GBP6.08 - GBP8.17 per share in connection with the Offer, making a gain on the difference between the option price and the GBP17.28 Offer price.
