RESULT OF SHAREHOLDER MEETINGS

admin — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 21:37:15 +0000

The Board of Carlton Communications Plc announces that at the Carlton Ordinary Shareholder Court Meeting and the Carlton Extraordinary General Meeting held earlier today, both of the resolutions approving the merger with Granada plc were duly passed.All of the resolutions proposed at the EGM to approve the ITV plc employee share plans were also duly passed.The results of the poll on the resolution to approve the Carlton Ordinary Shareholder Scheme held at the Carlton Ordinary Shareholder Court Meeting were 402,315,704 shares for the resolution (representing 99.99% of shares voted) and 29,986 shares against the resolution (representing 0.01% of shares voted). The votes for the resolution were cast by 1,823 shareholders representing 98.27% in number of those voting.At the Carlton Preference Shareholder Court Meeting also held earlier today, a resolution was proposed to approve the cancellation of Carlton’s 6.5p Convertible Preference Shares in consideration of the payment in cash by ITV plc of 102 pence per share (plus accrued dividend). The merger is not conditional on the passing of this resolution. The resolution required approval by a simple majority in number representing three-fourths in value of those Carlton Preference Shareholders present and voting in person or by proxy, and was not passed. The results of the poll on the resolution were 37,767,160 shares for the resolution (representing 56.04% of shares voted) and 29,622,383 shares against the resolution (representing 43.96% of shares voted). The votes for the resolution were cast by 406 shareholders representing 78.23% in number of those voting. Carlton Preference Shareholders will therefore continue to hold their Carlton Preference Shares following completion of the merger.The merger remains subject, amongst other things, to approval by Granada plc shareholders at meetings to be held later today and to the sanction of the High Court (expected on 30 January 2004). It is expected that the merger will become effective and trading in shares in ITV plc will commence on 2 February 2004.
