ITV plc
(the Issuer)
announces results of consent solicitation in respect of its
€500,000,000 4.25 per cent. Notes due 19 June 2032 (ISIN: XS2838391170) (the Notes)
On 6 July 2026, the Issuer announced an invitation (the Consent Solicitation) to holders of the Notes to consent, by way of Extraordinary Resolution, to certain amendments to the definitions used in the terms and conditions of the Notes and certain clarificatory changes to the related provisions in the trust deed dated 28 March 2024 between the Issuer and HSBC Corporate Trustee Company (UK) Limited (the Trustee) (the Trust Deed) (together, the Proposed Amendments). The Proposed Amendments are intended to ensure that certain definitions and provisions remain meaningful for holders of the Notes following completion of the sale of the Issuer's media and entertainment business to Sky.
Capitalised terms used in this announcement but not defined have the meanings given to them in the consent solicitation memorandum dated 6 July 2026 (the Consent Solicitation Memorandum).
The Meeting was held earlier today, 5 August 2026. Notice is hereby given that the quorum required for the Meeting was satisfied, with one or more Eligible Persons present and holding or representing in the aggregate more than 50 per cent. in principal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding. At the Meeting, a majority consisting of not less than three-fourths of the votes cast were cast in favour of the Extraordinary Resolution and, accordingly, the Extraordinary Resolution was duly passed. The Consent Conditions have therefore been satisfied.
The Extraordinary Resolution is binding on all Noteholders, whether or not they were present at the Meeting and whether or not they voted.
The Issuer has therefore proceeded to implement the Proposed Amendments with effect on and from 5 August 2026, and the Supplemental Trust Deed has been executed by all parties thereto.
The Consent Fee will be paid on 12 August 2026 to the Clearing Systems for onward payment to eligible Noteholders through the relevant Direct Participants, being those Noteholders from whom a valid Consent Instruction in favour of the Extraordinary Resolution was received by the Tabulation Agent at or prior to the Early Bird Deadline and not validly revoked, and who otherwise satisfied the conditions for payment set out in the Consent Solicitation Memorandum.
Further details on the Consent Solicitation can be obtained from:
