Virgin Media Secured Finance PLC, a public limited company organized under the laws of England and Wales (the “Issuer”), is soliciting (the “Solicitation”) consents (the “Consents” and each a “Consent”) from holders (“Holders”) of the following:

(i) £875,000,000 outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Issuer’s outstanding 7.00% Senior Secured Notes due 2018 (the “Sterling Notes”); and

(ii) $1,000,000,000 outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Issuer’s outstanding 6.50% Senior Secured Notes due 2018 (the “Dollar Notes” and together with the Sterling Notes, the “Notes”).

Consents from Holders of the Notes are being sought to certain proposed amendments (the “Proposed Amendments”) and waivers (the “Proposed Waivers” and, together with the Proposed Amendments, the “Proposed Amendments and Waivers”) of certain provisions of the indenture dated as of January 19, 2010 and as amended from time to time (the “Indenture”) among the Issuer, Virgin Media Inc., as the parent (the “Parent” or “Virgin Media”), Virgin Media Finance PLC (“VM FinanceCo”), Virgin Media Investment Holdings Limited (“Virgin Media Investment Holdings”), certain subsidiaries of the Parent that are from time to time parties thereto as guarantors  (“Subsidiary Guarantors” and together with the Parent, VM FinanceCo and Virgin Media Investment Holdings, the “Guarantors”), The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”) and paying agent (the “Paying Agent”) and The Bank of New York Mellon (Luxembourg) S.A., as Luxembourg Paying Agent (the “Luxembourg Paying Agent” and together with the Paying Agent, the “Paying Agents”) pursuant to which the Notes were issued.

Proposed Amendments and Waivers

This Consent Solicitation is being undertaken in connection with the proposed business combination (the “Merger”) of the Parent and Liberty Global, Inc. (“LGI”) pursuant to a merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) entered into on February 5, 2013 between the Parent, LGI and certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of LGI (the “Merger Subs”).  The Merger is expected to result in a Change of Control, as defined in the Indenture, and is referred to in this Consent Solicitation Statement as the “Change of Control Transaction.” However, there is no guarantee that the Change of Control Transaction will be consummated since the completion of the Merger is subject to regulatory approval, the affirmative approval of the shareholders of both LGI and Virgin Media and other customary closing conditions. In addition, the Merger Agreement will terminate if, prior to the consummation of the Merger, Virgin Media enters into an acquisition agreement with respect to a superior proposal and pays the applicable termination fee or if the Merger is not consummated on or prior to the outside date of the Merger Agreement (which can be no later than the eleventh month anniversary of the date on which the Merger Agreement was signed. See “Background and Purpose of the Solicitation—The Change of Control Transaction.”

i

In connection with the Change of Control Transaction, the Issuer, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Consent Solicitation Statement, is soliciting the Consents from Holders of the Notes for the following waivers and amendments:

Proposed Waivers

·                 waive the requirement under the Indenture for the Issuer to make a Repurchase Offer (as defined below) in connection with the Change of Control Transaction;

·                 waive any and all other defaults that might result from the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction;

·                 authorize and direct the Trustee to enter into one or more supplemental indentures with respect to the Notes (the “Supplemental Indentures,” each a “Supplemental Indenture”) containing the Proposed Amendments and Waivers set forth herein, such Supplemental Indenture to be entered into upon receipt of the required Consents; and

·                 to the extent necessary under the Indenture, authorize and direct the Trustee to give effect to, and permit, the Proposed Waivers, such Proposed Waivers to become effective and operative at the Effective Time. For the avoidance of doubt, the payment of the Waiver Payment (as defined below) is not a condition to the Proposed Waivers becoming effective and operative at the Effective Time, and such Proposed Waivers will become effective and operative prior to the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction.

Proposed Amendments

·                 amend the definition of “Change of Control” in the Indenture to reflect the post-Merger ownership of the Issuer and the Parent and to modify certain of the change of control triggering events in the Indenture (See “The Proposed Amendments and Waivers—Amendments—Amendment of Definition of “Change of Control”);

·                 amend Section 4.03 of the Indenture to provide that the Company may satisfy the ongoing reporting covenant by providing the Holders with certain reports of New ListCo and Virgin Reporting Entity (both as defined herein) following consummation of the Change of Control Transaction;

·                 amend and/or add certain definitions in the Indenture related to the Proposed Amendments;

ii

·                 authorize and direct the Trustee to enter into one or more Supplemental Indentures with respect to the Notes  containing the Proposed Amendments and Waivers set forth herein, such Supplemental Indenture to be entered into upon receipt of the required Consents; and

·                to the extent necessary under the Indenture, authorize and direct the Trustee to give effect to, and permit, the Proposed Amendments, such Proposed Amendments to become effective upon the effectiveness of the Supplemental Indenture but such Proposed Amendments to become operative only upon the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction.

See “The Proposed Amendments and Waivers” for a more detailed description of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers.

Upon delivery of a Consent by a Holder of the Notes in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein, such Holder will be deemed to have delivered a Consent to all (and not only some) of the Proposed Waivers and all (and not only some) of the Proposed Amendments.

Consent Payment

Upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions set forth in this Consent Solicitation Statement:

·                 The consideration for each £1,000 principal amount of Sterling Notes for which a Consent is validly delivered prior to the Expiration Time and not validly revoked prior to the Revocation Deadline will be £5.00, 25% of which will be payable by or on behalf of the Issuer on the Waiver Payment Date (as defined below) in consideration for and in respect of the Consents to the Proposed Waivers (the “Sterling Waiver Payment”), and 75% of which will be payable by or on behalf of the Issuer on the Amendment Payment Date (as defined below) in consideration for and in respect of the Consents to the Proposed Amendments (the “Sterling Amendment Payment”); and

·                 The consideration for each $1,000 principal amount of Dollar Notes for which a Consent is validly delivered prior to the Expiration Time and not validly revoked prior to the Revocation Deadline will be $5.00, 25% of which will be payable by or on behalf of the Issuer on the Waiver Payment Date (as defined below) in consideration for and in respect of the Consents to the Proposed Waivers (the “Dollar Waiver Payment”), and 75% of which will be payable by or on behalf of the Issuer on the Amendment Payment Date in consideration for and in respect of the Consents to the  Proposed Amendments (the “Dollar Amendment Payment”).

The Sterling Waiver Payment and the Dollar Waiver Payment are, together, referred to herein as the “Waiver Payment.” The Sterling Amendment Payment and the Dollar Amendment Payment are, together, referred to herein as the “Amendment Payment.” The Waiver Payment and the Amendment Payment are, together, referred to herein as the “Consent Payment”). See “—Payment Dates” for a description of the timing of the Consent Payment and its component parts. Upon written notice to the Trustee that the Consent Payment was not made at or promptly after the Expiration Time or the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction, as applicable, the Supplemental Indenture will terminate and Holders’ rights will be reinstated as set forth in the Indenture immediately prior to the Effective Time. LGI has agreed to pay on behalf of the Issuer, or simultaneously reimburse the Issuer for, the amounts due in respect of all Consent Payments. See “Expenses of the Solicitation.”

iii

Required Consents

Adoption of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers requires the Consents of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes voting as a single class (the “Required Consents”). Upon delivery of a Consent by a Holder of the Notes in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein, such Holder will be deemed to have delivered a Consent to both (i) all (and not only some) of the Proposed Waivers, which will become effective and operative at the Effective Time, and (ii) all (and not only some) of the Proposed Amendments, which will become effective at the Effective Time but will become operative only upon the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction. Upon written notice to the Trustee that the Consent Payment was not made at or promptly after the Expiration Time or the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction, as applicable, the Supplemental Indenture will terminate and Holders’ rights will be reinstated as set forth in the Indenture immediately prior to the Effective Time. Pursuant to Section 9.02 and Section 2.08 of the Indenture,  for the purposes of determining whether the requisite majority in principal amount of Holders of Sterling Notes and Dollar Notes voting as a single class, has taken action, the total principal amount of the Notes then outstanding will be equal to the then outstanding principal amount of Dollar Notes and the Dollar Equivalent (as defined in the Indenture) of the then outstanding principal amount of Sterling Notes, which shall be calculated at the spot rate provided in the Wall Street Journal as of two Business Days prior to the date on which the Issuer certifies the taking of such action by the requisite principal amount of Holders to the Trustee. Consents with respect to any of the Notes, in order to be valid, must be in accordance with the procedures established by and in the minimum denominations required by the relevant Clearing System (as defined below). After receipt of the Required Consents, the Issuer will give notice and provide a certification from the Tabulation Agent to the Trustee, upon which the Trustee may conclusively rely, that the Required Consents have been received and not revoked and the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee and Paying Agent will execute one or more Supplemental Indentures amending the Indenture and authorizing the Proposed Amendments and Waivers. Upon delivery of a Consent by a Holder of the Notes in accordance with the terms and conditions set out herein, such Holder will be deemed to have delivered a Consent to all (and not only some) of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers.

Upon receipt of the Required Consents, the Issuer will make an announcement via press release, by sending a notice via the Clearing Systems (as defined hereafter) and by posting a notice on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange website informing Holders of the Notes of receipt of the Required Consents.

Revocation of Consents

Consents may be revoked by a Holder at any time prior to but not after the Revocation Deadline, as described herein. If the Required Consents are not obtained prior to the Expiration Time, subject to the Issuer’s right to extend the Expiration Time as more fully described herein, all Consents received in respect of the Notes will automatically terminate and not be effective and no Consent Payment with respect to the Notes will be made. With respect to the Notes, from and after the Effective Time with respect to the Proposed Waivers, and from and after the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction with respect to the Proposed Amendments, each present and future Holder of such Notes will be bound by the Proposed Amendments and Waivers in respect of such Notes, whether or not such Holder delivered a Consent or otherwise affirmatively objected to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers. See “Certain Significant Considerations—If the Proposed Amendments and Waivers sought in the Solicitation become effective and operative, all Notes issued under the Indenture will be subject to the terms of, and bound by, all such Proposed Amendments and Waivers.”

iv

The Trustee has no responsibility or liability for monitoring, tabulating or verifying compliance with deadlines or other formalities in connection with the delivery or revocation of Consents nor the payment of any Consent Payment and will be relying conclusively on the Issuer and the Tabulation Agent, as applicable.

Non-consenting Holders will not be entitled to any rights of appraisal or similar rights of dissenters (whether pursuant to the Indenture, the Issuer’s or the Guarantors’ organizational instruments or applicable provisions of law) with respect to the adoption of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers.

Consent Payment Conditions

On the Waiver Payment Date (as defined below), and upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth below, the Issuer will make an announcement via press release, by sending a notice via the Clearing Systems and by posting a notice on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange website (and in the case of the Trustee, by delivery of a notice) informing Holders of the Notes and the Trustee, as the case may be, of the payment of the Waiver Payment. On the Amendment Payment Date (as defined below), and upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth below, the Issuer will make an announcement via press release, by sending a notice via the Clearing Systems and by posting a notice on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange website (and in the case of the Trustee, by delivery of a notice) informing Holders of the Notes and the Trustee, as the case may be, of the payment of the Amendment Payment and will notify Holders that the  Proposed Amendments have become operative.

The Supplemental Indenture with respect to the Notes will be executed, and both the Proposed Waivers and the Proposed Amendments will become effective following receipt of the Required Consents. The Proposed Waivers will become operative at the Effective Time but the Proposed Amendments will not become operative until the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction. The Consent Payment will be paid directly by the Issuer, or an agent on its behalf, to Euroclear and Clearstream or DTC, as applicable, for payments to the Holders who have validly consented as detailed herein, but only if certain conditions set forth herein are satisfied (or waived), including:

·                 the receipt of the Required Consents in respect of the Notes prior to the Expiration Time and the delivery to the Trustee of a certification from the Tabulation Agent that the Required Consents have been obtained;

v

·                 the execution and delivery of the Supplemental Indenture by the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee and related documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee;

·                 the absence of any laws, regulations, injunctions or actions or other proceedings, pending or threatened, which, in the case of any action or proceeding if adversely determined, would make unlawful or invalid or enjoin the implementation of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers or the payment of the Consent Payment; and

·                 with respect to the Amendment Payment only, the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction.

No Consent Payment will be made nor will the Supplemental Indenture become effective until the conditions set forth above are either satisfied or waived, and the Proposed Amendments will further not become operative until the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction.

Payment Dates

The Consent Payment will be paid in its component parts consisting of the Waiver Payment and the Amendment Payment. The Waiver Payment, being equal to 25% of the Consent Payment, will be payable by or on behalf of the Issuer at or promptly after the Expiration Time (the “Waiver Payment Date”). The Amendment Payment, being equal to 75% of the Consent Payment, will be payable by or on behalf of the Issuer on or promptly after the date of the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction (the “Amendment Payment Date”). Each of the Waiver Payment Date and the Amendment Payment Date, as the context requires, may also be referred to herein as a “Payment Date.”  LGI has agreed to pay on behalf of the Issuer, or simultaneously reimburse the Issuer for, the amounts due in respect of all Consent Payments. See “Expenses of the Solicitation.”

The Trustee has no responsibility or liability to ensure that Holders who delivered a Consent and did not validly revoke such Consent prior to the Revocation Deadline receive or have received the Consent Payment or any of its component parts.

General

The Solicitation is being made on the terms and is subject to the conditions set forth in this Consent Solicitation Statement. The Issuer expressly reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate, amend or extend the Solicitation at any time. If the Issuer terminates the Solicitation at any time prior to the Waiver Payment Date, then any Consent received in connection with such Solicitation will automatically terminate and no Consent Payment will be made and the Proposed Amendments and Waivers with respect to the Notes will not become operative. If the Issuer terminates the Solicitation at any time after the Waiver Payment Date but prior to the Amendment Payment Date or in the event any of the conditions set forth herein are not satisfied or waived prior to the Amendment Payment Date, then no Amendment Payment will be made and the Proposed Amendments with respect to the Notes will not become operative. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Issuer terminates the Solicitation or in the event any of the conditions set forth herein are not satisfied or waived any time after the Waiver Payment Date, Holders will remain entitled to receive or retain the Waiver Payment.

vi

If the Change of Control Transaction is not consummated prior to February 4, 2014 (the “Longstop Date”), then the rights of all Holders will be reinstated as of such date as they were set forth in the Indenture immediately prior to the Effective Time, the provisions of the Indenture will remain as set forth prior to the execution of the Supplemental Indenture, the Proposed Amendments as set forth in the Supplemental Indenture will not become operative and no Amendment Payment will be made to Holders. Holders who have received the Waiver Payment will be entitled to retain such payment. If the Amendment Payment has been made prior to the Longstop Date, then the Issuer will make an announcement via press release by sending a notice via the Clearing Systems and by posting a notice on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange website, in each case, stating that such event has occurred and will simultaneously provide a notice to the Trustee.

Irrespective of whether the Proposed Amendments and Waivers become effective and/or operative, the Notes will continue to legally exist, be outstanding and secured in accordance with all other terms of the Indenture, the Notes and the Notes Security Documents.

In accordance with normal practice, the Trustee and the Solicitation Agent express no opinion as to the merits of the Solicitation or the Proposed Amendments and Waivers to Holders in this Consent Solicitation Statement (of which they were not involved in the negotiation).

The Trustee and the Solicitation Agent have not made and will not make any assessment of the merits of any Solicitation or of the impact of any Solicitation on the interests of the Holders either as a class or as individuals.  The entry into the Supplemental Indenture as a result of the Solicitation will not require the Trustee or the Solicitation Agent to, and the Trustee and the Solicitation Agent will not, consider the interests of the Holders either as a class or as individuals.  The Trustee and the Solicitation Agent have not been involved in the Solicitation or in formulating the Solicitation and make no representation that all information has been disclosed to Holders in this Consent Solicitation Statement.  The Trustee will assess any direction it is given hereunder in accordance with its rights and duties under the Indenture. Accordingly, Holders who are in any doubt as to the impact of the Solicitation or of the implementation of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers should seek their own financial advice.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE OF THE SOLICITATION

Background to the Solicitation

Change of Control Transaction

On February 5, 2013, LGI and the LGI Merger Subs entered into the Merger Agreement with Virgin Media pursuant to which Virgin Media has agreed, through a series of intermediate steps and transactions, to be acquired by LGI and merge into one of the LGI Merger Subs. The  Merger will result in both LGI and Virgin Media becoming directly owned by a new U.K. public limited company listed on Nasdaq (the “New ListCo”), the common stock of which will in turn be held by LGI and Virgin Media shareholders. The consummation of the Merger pursuant to the Merger Agreement is subject to regulatory approval, the affirmative approval of the shareholders of both LGI and Virgin Media and other customary closing conditions. In addition, the Merger Agreement terminates if, prior to the consummation of the Merger, Virgin Media enters into an acquisition agreement with respect to a superior proposal and pays the applicable termination fee or if the Merger is not consummated on or prior to the outside date of the Merger Agreement (which can be no later than the eleventh month anniversary of the date the Merger Agreement is signed).

There is no guarantee that the conditions precedent will be fulfilled and that the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction will occur.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each share of Virgin Media common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time (excluding shares held by Virgin Media or its subsidiaries in treasury and dissenting shares in accordance with Delaware law) will be converted into the right to receive (i) 0.258 Series A shares of the New ListCo, (ii) 0.193 Series C shares of the New ListCo and (iii) $17.50 in cash. The aggregate cash portion of the merger consideration is expected to be approximately $6.1 billion, $2.7 billion of which LGI will finance from its own cash reserves and $3.4 billion of which LGI will finance either through the proceeds of new senior secured notes or through bridge loans made available to LGI.

Under the Merger Agreement, Virgin Media has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to carry on its business in the ordinary course consistent with past practice and preserve intact its business organization and commercial goodwill from the date of the Merger Agreement until the earlier of the termination of the Merger Agreement and the effective time of the Merger. In addition, Virgin Media has undertaken covenants that place certain restrictions on its and its subsidiaries’ ability, until the earlier of the termination of the Merger Agreement and the effective time of the Merger, to, among other things, dispose of material properties or assets, make unbudgeted capital expenditures, acquire substantial assets, make substantial investments, increase the salary of certain of its employees or directors, pay certain bonuses or incentive compensation, grant new equity or non-equity based compensation awards, hire new employees, redeem common stock or other equity interests, declare or pay dividends or make other distributions in respect of its capital stock, other than Virgin Media’s regular quarterly dividend up to $0.04 per share, incur or otherwise become liable for material indebtedness, enter into certain transactions with related parties or enter into new material contracts, in each case, other than in the ordinary course of business, and subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Merger Agreement unless LGI consents in writing to the taking of any such action. Failure by Virgin Media to comply with these restrictions in all material respects, unless waived by LGI, could result in the Merger Agreement being terminated or in the Merger not being consummated.

Sources and Uses for the Change of Control Transaction

As it relates to the Change of Control Transaction, the following information has been provided by LGI and not Virgin Media or any of its subsidiaries. The expected estimated sources and uses of cash related to the transactions above are shown in the table below. Actual amounts will vary from estimated amounts depending on several factors, including the amount of any existing senior secured notes and/or senior notes tendered in any Repurchase Offer (as defined below), and the results of this consent solicitation as well as the concurrent consent solicitations. The amounts presented below have been calculated based on an exchange rate at December 31, 2012 of 1.6189 U.S. dollar per pound sterling, the market rate at 6 p.m. London time on December 31, 2012.

(1)         New senior notes and senior secured notes to be issued by Lynx Corp. I and Lynx Corp. II, subsidiaries of LGI. These notes will become obligations of Virgin Media Secured Finance PLC or VM FinanceCo in connection with the debt pushdown that will occur following the consummation of the Change of  Control Transaction.

(2)         Represents the estimated proceeds that would have been received on December 31, 2012 if the derivative contract related to the conversion of the 6.50% convertible senior notes due 2016 (the ‘‘Capped Call Contract”) had been settled

(3)         Represents the estimated proceeds that would have been received on December 31, 2012 if interest rate swap agreements related to certain outstanding notes have been settled.

(4)         Represents the estimated interest and commitment fees associated with the new notes to be issued by Lynx I and Lynx II, bridge facilities and a senior credit facility to be incurred through the date of the debt pushdown (assuming the debt pushdown is completed on June 1, 2013).

(5)         Includes fees and expenses associated with the notes to be issued by Lynx I and Lynx II and a senior credit facility as well as the fees associated with respect to the Consent Solicitations.

Repurchase Offer

The Indenture provides that, upon the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined therein), a Holder of Notes has the right to require the Issuer to purchase (the “Repurchase Offer”) any or all of the Notes  issued under such Indenture at 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase.  The Change of Control Transaction, if consummated, will result in a person other than the Parent or any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Parent becoming the Beneficial Owner (as such term is defined in the Indenture) of more than 50% of the total voting power of the voting stock of the Parent and will, therefore, give each Holder of Notes the right to require the Issuer to make a Repurchase Offer.

The Solicitation

In connection with the Change of Control Transaction, the Issuer, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Consent Solicitation Statement, is soliciting the Consents from Holders of the Notes for the following waivers, amendments and related or incidental matters:

Proposed Waivers

·              waive the requirement under the Indenture for the Issuer to make a Repurchase Offer in connection with the Change of Control Transaction;

·              waive any and all other defaults that might result from the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction;

Proposed Amendments

·              amend the definition of “Change of Control” in the Indenture to reflect the post-Merger ownership of the Issuer and the Parent and to modify certain of the change of control triggering events in the Indenture (See “The Proposed Amendments and Waivers—Amendments—Amendment of Definition of “Change of Control”);

·              amend Section 4.03 of the Indenture to provide that the Company may satisfy the ongoing reporting covenant by providing the Holders with certain reports of New ListCo and Virgin Reporting Entity (both as defined below) following consummation of the Change of Control Transaction; and

·              amend and/or add certain definitions in the Indenture related to the Proposed Amendments.

The Proposed Amendments and Waivers are not conditions to the completion of the Change of Control Transaction. If the Required Consents are not received by the Expiration Time, the Issuer will be required under the Indenture to make a Repurchase Offer in respect of the Notes within 30 days of the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction.

6

The concurrent consent solicitations in respect of certain other existing notes

The Issuer and VM FinanceCo are also seeking consents from the holders of (i) VM FinanceCo’s 8.875% Senior Notes due 2019 and 8.375% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “2019 Notes”), and (ii) the Issuer’s 5.50% Senior Secured Notes due 2021 and 5.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”) to effect waivers and amendments in respect of the 2019 Notes and the 2021 Notes that are similar to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers sought pursuant to this Consent Solicitation Statement.

The consent solicitations in respect of the 2019 Notes and the 2021 Notes are scheduled to expire at  5:00 p.m., New York City time, on February 14, 2013, unless extended or earlier terminated. If the required consents to the amendments and waivers under these consent solicitations are not received by such time, the Issuer and/or VM FinanceCo, as applicable, will be required under the applicable indentures to offer to repurchase the 2019 Notes and 2021 Notes within 30 days of the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction. Each of these solicitations, including the Solicitation, is independent of any other solicitation.

In addition, VM FinanceCo is not soliciting consents in relation to its 5.25% Senior Notes due 2022, its 4.875% Senior Notes due 2022 or 5.125% Senior Notes due 2022 (the “2022 Notes”) and will be required pursuant to the relevant indentures to offer to repurchase the 2022 Notes within 30 days of the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction.

Supplemental Indentures

The Solicitation requests Consents from the Holders of the Notes to authorize and direct the Issuer, the Parent, the Guarantors and the Trustee to enter into one or more Supplemental Indentures in order to amend the Indenture and the Notes to permit and reflect the Proposed Amendments and Waivers.

7

CERTAIN SIGNIFICANT CONSIDERATIONS

None of LGI, the Issuer, the Parent, the Solicitation Agent, the Trustee, the Tabulation Agent, the Information Agent and any of its respective directors, officers, employees, agents or affiliates make any recommendation as to whether a Holder of the Notes should consent to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers and none of LGI, the Issuer, the Parent or its respective boards of directors have authorized any person to make any such statement. Holders of the Notes are urged to evaluate carefully all information included in this Consent Solicitation Statement, consult with their own legal, investment and tax advisors and make their own decision whether to provide their consent to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers pursuant to the Solicitation. In deciding whether to consent to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers, you should carefully consider the following, in addition to the other information contained in this Consent Solicitation Statement.

If the Proposed Amendments and Waivers sought in the Solicitation become effective and operative, all Notes issued under the Indenture will be subject to the terms of, and bound by, all such Proposed Amendments and Waivers.

If the Proposed Amendments and Waivers become effective and operative, all Holders of the Notes will be bound by the Proposed Amendments and Waivers in respect of which any Supplemental Indenture has been executed, whether or not such Holder delivered a Consent or otherwise affirmatively objected to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers. Non-consenting Holders, although bound by the Proposed Amendments and Waivers in respect of which any Supplemental Indenture has been executed, will not be entitled to any Consent Payment. Non-consenting Holders of the Notes (whether or not they affirmatively objected to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers) will not be entitled to any rights of appraisal or similar rights of dissenters (whether pursuant to the Indenture or the Issuer’s or the Guarantors’ organizational instruments) with respect to the adoption of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers and the execution of any Supplemental Indenture.

Limited ability to revoke Consents and certain consequences for Consents delivered.

Consents may be validly revoked at any time prior to the Revocation Deadline, but not thereafter, unless required by applicable law. In addition, the Issuer may, in its sole discretion, subject to applicable law and certain contractual restrictions, extend, amend or terminate the Solicitation. Holders who deliver Consents prior to the Expiration Time may be required to wait for an extended period of time before receiving any Consent Payment and, unless required by applicable law, will not have the ability to revoke their Consent after the Revocation Deadline. See “—If the Proposed Amendments and Waivers sought in the Solicitation become effective and operative, all Notes issued under the Indenture will be subject to the terms of, and bound by, all such Proposed Amendments and Waivers.”

Certain tax considerations.

For a summary of certain tax considerations related to the Solicitation and the receipt of Consent Payment, see “Certain Tax Considerations.”

8

The Issuer will make no Consent Payment or will not timely make the Consent Payment unless it receives the funds necessary to make such Consent Payment from LGI prior to the Waiver Payment Date or the Amendment Payment Date, as applicable.

LGI has committed to provide to the Issuer the funds that the Issuer requires to make the Consent Payment set forth in this Consent Solicitation Statement. If LGI does not fulfill its obligation to timely provide the Issuer with such funds, the Issuer may make no Consent Payment or may delay the making of the Consent Payment to Holders who have validly delivered their Consents, whether on the Waiver Payment Date or the Amendment Payment Date. Accordingly, the Issuer cannot guarantee that Holders who delivered a Consent and did not validly revoke such Consent prior to the Revocation Deadline will timely receive or receive at all the applicable Consent Payment or either of its component parts. Upon written notice to the Trustee that the Consent Payment was not made at or promptly after the Expiration Time or the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction, as applicable, the Supplemental Indenture will terminate and Holders’ rights will be reinstated as set forth in the Indenture immediately prior to the Effective Time.

Notes for which Consents are delivered will be blocked from trading until the earliest of the Expiration Time, the date on which Holders withdraw such Consents or the date on which the Solicitation is terminated.

The Electronic Consent Instruction by which Holders are to effect their Consents will include an authorization of Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, to block the Sterling Notes for which Consents are delivered in the account of the Direct Participant so that no transfers may be effected in relation to such Sterling Notes at any time from and including the date on which the Holder submits its Electronic Consent Instruction until the earliest of the Expiration Time or the prior termination or withdrawal of the Solicitation by the Issuer or, in the case of the Sterling Notes in respect of which the Consent has been revoked, the date on which such Consent is validly revoked.

Similarly, the Dollar Notes for which a Consent has been delivered through ATOP (as defined below) as part of the Solicitation prior to the Expiration Time will be held under a temporary CUSIP number during the period beginning at the time the DTC Participant electronically delivers a Consent and ending on the earlier of (i) the Expiration Time and (ii) the date on which the DTC Participant withdraws its Consent prior to the Revocation Deadline. During the period that Dollar Notes are held under a temporary CUSIP number or numbers, such Dollar Notes will not be freely transferable to third parties and will be blocked.

In the period of time during which Notes are blocked pursuant to the foregoing procedures for delivering Consents, Holders may be unable to promptly liquidate their Notes or timely react to adverse trading conditions and could suffer losses as a result of these restrictions on transferability.

Risks relating to the Transaction

The Merger Agreement is subject to certain conditions, and as a result the Merger may not be consummated; Virgin Media’s operations both pre- and post-consummation of the Merger will be impacted.

9

On February 5, 2013, Virgin Media entered into the Merger Agreement with LGI, pursuant to which Virgin Media agreed to be acquired by LGI subject to the terms and conditions in the Merger Agreement. The consummation of the Merger pursuant to the Merger Agreement is subject to regulatory approval, the affirmative approval of the shareholders of both LGI and Virgin Media and other customary conditions. In addition, the Merger Agreement may be terminated under certain conditions by Virgin Media or LGI. As a result the Merger may not be consummated.

Whether or not the merger is completed, the announcement and pendency of the transaction could cause disruptions to our business, which could have an adverse effect on our business and financial condition and results of operations.

Under the Merger Agreement, Virgin Media has agreed to certain covenants that place restrictions on its ability to, among other things, dispose of properties or assets, make unbudgeted capital expenditures, acquire substantial assets, make substantial investments, increase the salary of certain of its employees or directors, pay certain bonuses or incentive compensation, grant new equity or non-equity based compensation awards, hire new employees, redeem equity interests, declare or pay dividends or make other distributions in respect of its capital stock, other than a regular quarterly dividend of up to $0.04 per share, incur indebtedness, enter into certain transactions with related parties or enter into new material contracts outside the ordinary course of business, in each case, until the earlier of the termination of the Merger Agreement and the effective time of the Merger.

Once consummated, the combined company may be unable to successfully integrate operations and realize the full anticipated synergies of the Merger.

Virgin Media will incur substantial merger-related costs in connection with the Merger.

Virgin Media expects to incur non-recurring merger-related costs associated with completing the Merger, combining its operations with those of LGI and achieving desired synergies. These costs include fees paid to legal, financial and accounting advisors, filing fees, printing costs and potential tax costs related to the structuring aspects of the Merger. Additional unanticipated costs may be incurred in the integration of the businesses of Virgin Media and LGI. There can be no assurance that the elimination of certain duplicative costs, as well as the realization of other efficiencies related to the integration of the two businesses, will offset the incremental merger-related costs over time. Thus, any net benefit may not be achieved in the near term, the long term or at all. Many of these costs will be incurred whether or not the Merger is consummated.

Virgin Media may experience disruptions as a result of the Merger that make it difficult to retaining executives and other employees.

Uncertainty about the effect of the Merger on Virgin Media’s employees may have an adverse effect on Virgin Media. This uncertainty may impair Virgin Media’s ability to attract, retain and motivate personnel until the Merger is completed. Employee retention may be particularly challenging during the pendency of the Merger, as employees may feel uncertain about their future roles with the combined group. If Virgin Media’s employees depart because of issues relating to the uncertainty and difficulty of integration or a desire not to become employees of the combined group, Virgin Media’s ability to realize the anticipated benefits of the Merger could be reduced.

10

The interests of LGI may conflict with Virgin Media’s interests.

Upon consummation of the Merger, Virgin Media will be controlled by the New ListCo. When business opportunities, or risks and risk allocation arise, the interests of the New ListCo (or other LGI entities) may be different, or in conflict with Virgin Media’s interests on a stand-alone basis. Because Virgin Media will be controlled by the New ListCo, the New ListCo may allocate certain or all of its business opportunities to parts of the combined group other than Virgin Media.

Certain current stockholders of LGI could have an influence over the business and affairs of the combined company after the Merger.

11

THE PROPOSED AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS

Set forth below is a summary of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers for which Consents are being sought pursuant to this Consent Solicitation Statement. Holders of the Notes should carefully consider the factors set forth below as well as the other information set forth in this Consent Solicitation Statement prior to delivering a Consent. The following statements relating to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers are summaries that do not purport to be complete. Certain relevant provisions of the Indenture as it is proposed to be amended are set forth in Annex A-1, which forms a part of this Consent Solicitation Statement. The actual terms of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers will be contained in the Supplemental Indentures and related documents. Each capitalized term appearing below that is not defined herein or elsewhere in this Consent Solicitation Statement has the meaning assigned to such term in the Indenture, as the context requires, unless the context otherwise requires or is clear from the context.

Holders of the Notes, through the Proposed Waivers, if given effect, would waive the right to require the Issuer to make a Repurchase Offer resulting from a Change of Control and waive all other defaults that might result from the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction.  If the Repurchase Offer requirement is not waived, the Issuer will be required to make a Repurchase Offer within 30 days of the date on which the Change of Control Transaction is consummated.

The Proposed Amendments, if given effect, would: (i) amend the definition of “Change of Control” in the Indenture to reflect the post-Merger ownership of the Issuer and the Parent and to modify certain of the change of control triggering events in the Indenture; (ii) amend Section 4.03 of the Indenture to provide that the Issuer may satisfy the ongoing reporting covenant by providing the Holders with certain reports of New ListCo or Virgin Reporting Entity following consummation of the Change of Control Transaction; and (iii) amend and/or add certain definitions related to the Proposed Amendments.

The Proposed Waivers and the Proposed Amendments are described in detail below.

Proposed Amendments:

Amendment of Definition of “Change of Control”

Proposed Amendment. The Issuer requests Holders, by delivery of their Consents, to authorize an amendment to Section 1.01 of the Indenture to replace the definition of “Change of Control” in its entirety with the following:

(2)           the sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger, consolidation) in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole to any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) other than a Permitted Holder;

(3)           at any time after the consummation of the Debt Pushdown, the Company ceases to own directly or indirectly all of the Capital Stock of the Issuer; or

(4)           the adoption by the stockholders of the Company or the Issuer of a plan or proposal for the liquidation or dissolution of the Company or the Issuer, other than a transaction complying with Section 5.01.”

Provided that a Change of Control shall not be deemed to have occurred pursuant to clause (1) of this definition upon the consummation of the Post-Closing Reorganization or a Spin-Off. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon consummation of the Post-Closing Reorganization or a Spin-Off, ‘‘Virgin Media Communications’’ in clause (1) will be replaced with New Immediate Holdco, in respect of the Post-Closing Reorganization, and the Spin Parent, in respect of a Spin-Off.”

13

Amendment to Ongoing Reporting

Proposed Amendment.  The Issuer requests Holders, by delivery of their Consents, to authorize an amendment to Section 4.03 of the Indenture by replacing it in its entirety with the following:

(1)           for so long as the Company is a direct or indirect Subsidiary of New ListCo and New ListCo (or any Successor Reporting Entity) files an Annual Report on Form 10-K with the SEC, a copy of such Annual Report within 120 days after the end of New ListCo’s (or such Successor Reporting Entity’s) year end;

(2)           within 150 days after the end of each fiscal year ending subsequent to the Issue Date, an annual report of the Virgin Reporting Entity, containing the following information: (a) audited combined or consolidated balance sheets of the Virgin Reporting Entity as of the end of the two most recent fiscal years and audited combined or consolidated income statements and statements of cash flow of the Virgin Reporting Entity for the three most recent fiscal years, in each case prepared in accordance with GAAP, including appropriate footnotes to such financial statements, and a report of the independent public accountants on the financial statements; (b) to the extent relating to such annual periods, an operating and financial review of the audited financial statements, including a discussion of the results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity and capital resources, and a discussion of material commitments and contingencies and critical accounting policies; and (c) to the extent not included in the audited financial statements or operating and financial review, a description of the business, management and shareholders of the Company, all material affiliate transactions and a description of all material contractual arrangements, including material debt instruments; provided, however, that such reports need not (i) contain any segment data other than as required under GAAP or, for so long as the Company is a direct or indirect Subsidiary of New ListCo, as provided by New ListCo (or any Successor Reporting Entity) in its financial reports with respect to the period presented or (ii) include any exhibits;

14

(4)           within 10 days after the occurrence of such event, information with respect to (a) any change in the independent public accountants of the Virgin Reporting Entity (unless such change is made in conjunction with a change in the auditor of the Ultimate Parent), (b) any material acquisition or disposal, and (c) any material development in the business of the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries.

(b)           If the Company has designated any of the Restricted Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries and any such Unrestricted Subsidiary or group of Unrestricted Subsidiaries constitute Significant Subsidiaries of the Company, then the annual and quarterly information required by clauses (a)(2) and (a)(3) of this covenant shall include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements, in the footnotes thereto or in a separate report delivered therewith, of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of such Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

(e)               To the extent any material differences exist between the management, business, assets, shareholding or results of operations or financial condition of the Virgin Reporting Entity, VM FinanceCo or such Parent (as the case may be) and the Company, the annual  and  quarterly  reports  shall  give  a  reasonably  detailed  description  of  such  differences  and  include  an unaudited  reconciliation  of the Company’s financial  statements  to Virgin Reporting Entity’s, VM FinanceCo’s or such Parent’s (as the case may be)  financial  statement;  provided, however, that if the total revenues, Consolidated EBITDA or Total Assets of the Virgin Reporting Entity and its Subsidiaries, VM FinanceCo or such Parent (as the case may be) for any applicable period (on either a historical or pro forma basis) would deviate from any such measurement of the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries by 5% or more, then a separate annual or quarterly report, as the case may be, shall be provided for the Company (in which case no report need be provided for the Virgin Reporting Entity, VM FinanceCo or such Parent (as the case may be)).

(f)            In addition, so long as the Notes remain outstanding and during any period during which the Issuer is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act nor exempt therefrom pursuant to Rule 12g3-2(b) of the Exchange Act, the Issuer shall furnish to the holders of the Notes and to prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

15

(g)            The Issuer will at all times comply with TIA §314(a).”

Amendment to Certain Other Definitions

Proposed Amendment. The Issuer requests Holders, by delivery of their Consents, to authorize an amendment to Section 1.01 of the Indenture to change certain other ancillary definitions related to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers. See “Annex A-1.”

By delivering a Consent, a Holder of the Notes authorizes, directs and requests that the Trustee, upon receipt of all required documentation in the Indenture in the form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, to enter into the Supplemental Indenture to give effect to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers. For the avoidance of doubt, the Proposed Waivers will become effective and operative when the Issuer, the Guarantors, Trustee and the Paying Agent execute the Supplemental Indenture, which is expected to be at the Effective Time, while the Proposed Amendments will become effective when the Issuer, the Guarantors, Trustee and the Paying Agent execute the Supplemental Indenture, which is expected to be at the Effective Time, but they will only become operative upon the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction.

16

THE SOLICITATION

General

Pursuant to Section 9.02 of the Indenture, adoption of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers requires the receipt of the Required Consents consisting of the valid and unrevoked Consents of Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes voting as a single class prior to the Expiration Time;

Pursuant to Section 9.02 and Section 2.08 of the Indenture, for purposes of determining whether the requisite majority in principal amount of Holders of Sterling Notes and Dollar Notes, voting as a single class, has taken action and consented to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers, the total principal amount of Notes then outstanding will be equal to the then outstanding principal amount of Dollar Notes and the Dollar Equivalent (as defined in the Indenture) of the then outstanding principal amount of Sterling Notes, which shall be calculated at the spot rate provided in the Wall Street Journal as of two Business Days prior to the date on which the Issuer certifies the taking of such action by the requisite principal amount of Holders to the Trustee.

As of February 5, 2013, the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Dollar Notes was $1,000,000,000, and the Dollar Equivalent of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Sterling Notes was $1,373,750,000, calculated using the closing rate of 1.57 as stated by the Wall Street Journal on February 5, 2013 and which may be different from the rate used to calculate the Dollar Equivalent of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Sterling Notes at the Effective Time, and the combined outstanding aggregate principal amount (including such Dollar Equivalent) of the Sterling Notes and the Dollar Notes was $2,373,750,000.

The Proposed Waivers will become effective and operative at the Effective Time. The Proposed Amendments with respect to the Indenture will become effective at the Effective Time but will become operative only upon consummation of the Change of Control Transaction. The Issuer will make the Consent Payment, consisting of the  Waiver Payment and the Amendment Payment, as discussed below, provided that certain conditions set forth herein are satisfied and/or waived by the Issuer at its sole discretion, including:

·                              the receipt of the Required Consents in respect of the Notes prior to the Expiration Time and the delivery to the Trustee of a certification from the Tabulation Agent that the Required Consents have been obtained;

·                              the execution and delivery of the Supplemental Indenture by the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee and related documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee;

·                              the absence of any laws, regulations, injunctions or actions or other proceedings, pending or threatened, which, in the case of any action or proceeding if adversely determined, would make unlawful or invalid or enjoin the implementation of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers or the payment of the Consent Payment; and

17

·                              with respect to the Amendment Payment only, the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction.

No Consent Payment will be made until the conditions set forth above are either satisfied or waived. In addition, the Proposed Amendments will not become operative until the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction.

There can be no assurance that the Proposed Amendments and Waivers will become effective or operative or that the Change of Control Transaction will be consummated.

If the Required Consents are obtained and all requested documents are delivered to the Trustee in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, the Trustee will enter into the Supplemental Indenture to give effect to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers. If the Proposed Amendments and Waivers become effective and operative, the Proposed Amendments and Waivers as set forth in the Supplemental Indenture will be binding on all Holders of the Notes and its transferees whether or not such Holders have consented to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers. For the avoidance of doubt, the Proposed Amendments will become operative only upon consummation of the Change of Control Transaction.

In order to provide a Consent, each person who is shown in the records of the clearing and settlement systems of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), Euroclear Bank SA/NV (“Euroclear”) or Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (“Clearstream” and, together with DTC and Euroclear, the “Clearing Systems” and each a  “Clearing System”) as a holder of the Notes (also referred to as “Direct Participants” and each a “Direct Participant”) must submit, at or prior to the Expiration Time, a Consent in the applicable manner described below.

Holders of the Notes who wish to provide a Consent and whose Notes are held in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee institution must contact such nominee promptly and instruct such nominee, to consent in accordance with the customary procedures of either, with respect to the Sterling Notes, Euroclear and Clearstream or, with respect to the Dollar Notes, DTC, on behalf of the Holder of Notes.  The deadlines set by any such custodial entity and each Clearing System for the submission of consents to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers may be earlier than the deadlines specified in this Consent Solicitation Statement.

The Trustee has no responsibility or liability for monitoring, tabulating or verifying compliance with deadlines or other formalities in connection with the delivery or revocation of Consents nor the payment of any Consent Payment and will be relying on the Issuer and the Tabulation Agent, as applicable.

None of the Solicitation Agent, the Tabulation Agent, the Information Agent or the Trustee, nor any of its respective directors, employees or affiliates, makes any recommendation as to whether Holders, Direct Participants or beneficial owners should deliver their Consents.

18

Consent Payment; Expiration Time

Upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Consent Solicitation Statement, the Issuer, or an agent on its behalf, will make the relevant Consent Payment on the relevant date directly to the cash accounts of Euroclear, Clearstream or DTC, as applicable, for credit to the Direct Participants whose Consents have been received by the Tabulation Agent prior to the Expiration Time and have not been validly revoked prior to the Revocation Deadline. Under no circumstances will interest accrue on or be payable with respect to any Consent Payment.

Each Holder that delivers a Consent in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein will be entitled to receive the Consent Payment. The Consent Payment will be paid in its two component parts consisting of: (i) the Waiver Payment and (ii) the Amendment Payment. The Waiver Payment, being equal to 25% of the Consent Payment, will be payable by or on behalf of the Issuer on the Waiver Payment Date. The Amendment Payment, being equal to 75% of the Consent Payment, will be payable by or on behalf of the Issuer on the Amendment Payment Date.  LGI has agreed to pay on behalf of the Issuer, or simultaneously reimburse the Issuer for, the amounts due in respect of all Consent Payments. See “Expenses of the Solicitation.”

If the Required Consents have not been received prior to the Expiration Time, the Issuer may, in its sole discretion, extend the Expiration Time for a specified period of time or on a daily basis until the Required Consents have been obtained.

Holders who do not consent to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers and the Holders whose Consents are revoked before the Effective Time will not receive a Consent Payment even though the Proposed Amendments and Waivers, if they become effective and operative, will be binding on them and any transferee of the Notes to which the Proposed Amendments and Waivers relate. Failure to deliver a Consent will have the same effect as if a Holder had voted “No” to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers.

None of the Issuer, the Solicitation Agent, the Tabulation Agent, the Information Agent nor the Trustee are responsible if any Holder fails to meet these deadlines and cannot validly revoke its Consent.

Failure to Obtain Required Consents

In the event that the Required Consents are not obtained prior to the Expiration Time, any other condition set forth in this Consent Solicitation Statement is not satisfied and/or waived, or the Solicitation is terminated, none of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers will become operative and no Consent Payment will be made to Holders of such Notes.

Expiration Time; Extensions; Amendment

The term “Expiration Time” means 5:00 p.m., New York Time, on February 14, 2013, unless the Issuer, in its sole discretion, extend the Expiration Time with respect to the Notes, in which case the Expiration Time shall be the latest date and time for which an extension is effective. The Issuer may extend the Expiration Time with respect to the Notes on a daily basis or for a specified period of time. In order to extend the Solicitation period, the Issuer will notify the Tabulation Agent of any extension by written notice and will make a public announcement thereof, each prior to 9:00 a.m., New York Time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled Expiration Time. The Issuer may elect to utilize any means reasonably calculated to inform Holders of such extension. Failure of any Holder of the Notes to be so notified will not affect the extension of the Solicitation.

19

The Issuer expressly reserves the right, in its sole discretion, at any time to (i) terminate the Solicitation, (ii) waive any of the conditions to the Solicitation, (iii) extend the Expiration Time or (iv) amend the terms of the Solicitation in any manner.

If the Issuer elects to waive any of the conditions to the Solicitation, extend the Solicitation period or amend the terms of the Solicitation with respect to the Indenture in a manner favorable to the Holders, all Consents received will remain valid (and subject to revocation as provided in this Consent Solicitation Statement) until the Expiration Time (including any extension thereof).  If the Issuer waives any of the conditions to the Solicitation, terminates or shortens the Solicitation period or amends the terms of the Solicitation in a manner prejudicial to the Holders of the Notes, all Consents received will be cancelled and the Holders who wish to provide a Consent will be required to submit a new Consent.

Without limiting the manner in which the Issuer may choose to make a public announcement of any extension, amendment or termination of the Solicitation, the Issuer will have no obligation to publish, advertise, or otherwise communicate such public announcement, other than by complying with any applicable notice provisions of the Indenture.

None of the Issuer, the Solicitation Agent, the Tabulation Agent, the Information Agent or the Trustee are responsible if any Holder fails to meet these deadlines and cannot participate in the Solicitation.

Procedures for Consenting

The Issuer will accept Consents given in accordance with the customary procedures of, with respect to the Sterling Notes, Euroclear and Clearstream and, with respect to the Dollar Notes, DTC’s ATOP.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD ANY PERSON TENDER OR DELIVER NOTES TO THE ISSUER, THE SOLICITATION AGENT, THE TABULATION AGENT, THE LUXEMBOURG LISTING AGENT OR THE TRUSTEE AT ANY TIME.

The Issuer will resolve all questions as to the validity, form, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance and revocation of Consents, and those determinations will be binding. The Issuer reserves the right to reject any or all Consents and revocations not validly given or any Consents the Issuer’s acceptance of which could, in the opinion of the Issuer’s counsel, be unlawful. The Issuer also reserves the right to waive any defects or irregularities in connection with deliveries or to require a cure of such irregularities within such time as the Issuer determines. None of the Issuer, any Guarantor, any of its respective affiliates, the Solicitation Agent, the Tabulation Agent, the Trustee, the Information Agent or any other person will have any duty to give notification of any such waiver, defects or irregularities, nor will any of them incur any liability for failure to give such notification. Deliveries of Consents or notices of revocation will be deemed not to have been made until such irregularities have been cured or waived.

Euroclear and Clearstream

Consent for the Sterling Notes shall be given through the procedures of Euroclear or Clearstream. Consents delivered with respect to any of the Sterling Notes in accordance with the procedures described below will constitute the delivery of a written Consent by such Holder with respect to such Sterling Notes.

Delivery of Consents

The delivery of Consents pursuant to the procedures set forth below will constitute a binding agreement between such Holder and the Issuer seeking such Consent in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Consent Solicitation Statement.

22

Electronic Consent Instruction

To validly deliver Consents by Electronic Consent Instruction (as defined below), a Direct Participant should contact Euroclear or Clearstream for participation procedures and deadlines regarding the submission of a tested telex, authenticated SWIFT message, a Euclid server or Creation instruction (each an “Electronic Consent Instruction”) to authorize the delivery of Consents.  Holders of the Sterling Notes who wish to provide a Consent and whose Sterling Notes are held in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee institution must contact such nominee promptly and instruct such nominee to effect the submission of an Electronic Consent Instruction to authorize the delivery of Consents for such Holder in accordance with the procedures set out herein.

The valid submission or delivery of an Electronic Consent Instruction in accordance with Euroclear’s and Clearstream’s procedures shall constitute a written consent to the Solicitation.

For the avoidance of doubt, only Direct Participants can submit an Electronic Consent Instruction. The receipt of such Electronic Consent Instruction by Euroclear or Clearstream may be acknowledged in accordance with the standard practices of Euroclear or Clearstream. For the avoidance of doubt any such acknowledgement does not constitute an acceptance of the Consent by or on behalf of the Issuer.

None of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Tabulation Agent, the Information Agent or any of its respective affiliates, officers, directors or employees or any other person will be under any duty to give notification of any defects, irregularities or delays in such Electronic Consent Instruction, nor will any of such entities or persons incur any liability for failure to give such notification.

Procedures for delivering Consents

A Holder may consent by submitting, or requesting the Direct Participant to submit on its behalf, a valid Electronic Consent Instruction to Euroclear or Clearstream in accordance with the requirements established by the relevant Clearing System. The Electronic Consent Instruction must contain:

·                                          the aggregate principal amount of the Sterling Notes with respect to which the Holder wishes to deliver a Consent, such amount of Sterling Notes, in order to be valid, being in minimum denominations of £50,000 and multiples of £1,000 in excess thereof; and

·                                          the name of the Direct Participant, the securities account number for Euroclear or Clearstream in which the Sterling Notes are held.

All of this information in the Electronic Consent Instruction will be disclosed to the Issuer, the Solicitation Agent, the Trustee, the Tabulation Agent and the Information Agent.

The Consent by a Holder of Sterling Notes will, on acceptance of the Consent by the Issuer and verification to the Holders thereof, constitute a binding agreement between such Holder and such Issuer in accordance with the terms, and subject to the conditions, set forth in this Consent Solicitation Statement and in the Electronic Consent Instruction, as the case may be.

23

Such Consent will be binding on the consenting Holder upon receipt by Euroclear or Clearstream of a valid Electronic Consent Instruction in respect of all matters. A Consent by a Holder may be revoked prior to but not after the Revocation Deadline by submitting, or requesting the Direct Participant to submit on its behalf, an electronic revocation instruction to Euroclear or Clearstream.

The Electronic Consent Instruction by which Holders are to effect their Consents will include an authorization of Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, to block the Sterling Notes for which Consents are delivered in the account of the Direct Participant so that no transfers may be effected in relation to such Sterling Notes at any time from and including the date on which the Holder submits its Electronic Consent Instruction until the earliest of the Expiration Time or the prior termination or withdrawal of the Solicitation by the Issuer or, in the case of the Sterling Notes in respect of which the Consent has been revoked, the date on which such Consent is validly revoked.

The deadlines imposed by each of Euroclear and Clearstream for the submission of Electronic Consent Instructions may be earlier than the relevant deadlines specified in this Consent Solicitation Statement.

No Letter of Transmittal or Consent

There shall be no consent form delivered in connection with the Solicitation. The submission of an Electronic Consent Instruction in the manner provided in this Consent Solicitation Statement shall constitute written consent to the Solicitation.

All Consents will be made on the basis of the terms set out in this Consent Solicitation Statement and, once made in the manner described above, will (subject as mentioned above) be irrevocable and binding on the Holder. Consents in respect of the Sterling Notes may only be made by submission of a valid Electronic Consent Instruction to Euroclear or Clearstream no later than the Expiration Time.

The receipt of an Electronic Consent Instruction by Euroclear or Clearstream will be acknowledged in accordance with the standard practices of Euroclear or Clearstream. All questions as to validity, form and eligibility (including time of receipt) of any Electronic Consent Instruction will be determined solely by the Issuer. Such determination as to whether or when an Electronic Consent Instruction is received, whether it is duly completed and signed or whether a Consent is validly revoked shall be final and binding.

Holders of the Sterling Notes must submit, or request the Direct Participant to submit on its behalf, or deliver Electronic Consent Instructions through Euroclear or Clearstream in accordance with the procedures of, and within the time limits specified by, Euroclear or Clearstream for receipt by the Tabulation Agent, prior to the Expiration Time.

By submitting or delivering an Electronic Consent Instruction through Euroclear or Clearstream to the Tabulation Agent, Direct Participants are deemed to authorize Euroclear or Clearstream to disclose its identity, the principal amount of Sterling Notes subject to the Electronic Consent Instruction and Euroclear or Clearstream account details to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Tabulation Agent, the Solicitation Agent and the Information Agent.

24

Holders who are not direct accountholders in Euroclear or Clearstream should arrange for the Direct Participant through which they hold its Sterling Notes to submit or deliver an Electronic Consent Instruction on its behalf to and through Euroclear or Clearstream, in accordance with the procedures of, and within the time limits specified by, Euroclear or Clearstream for receipt by the Tabulation Agent, prior to the Expiration Time.

Unless waived by the Issuer, any irregularities in connection with Electronic Consent Instructions must be cured within such time as the Issuer shall in its absolute discretion determine. None of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Tabulation Agent and Information Agent, any of its respective affiliates, directors or employees or any other person will be under any duty to give notification of any defects or irregularities in such Electronic Consent Instruction, nor will any of such entities or persons incur any liability for failure to give such notification.

Consent of Sterling Notes in Physical Form

The Trustee has informed the Issuer that all Holders hold the Sterling Notes through Euroclear or Clearstream accounts and there are no Sterling Notes in physical form. If you believe that you are holding a Sterling Note in physical form, please contact the Trustee for the appropriate procedures with regard to consenting with respect to such Sterling Notes.

No Guaranteed Delivery

There are no guaranteed delivery procedures provided by the Issuer in connection with the Solicitation. Beneficial owners of Sterling Notes that are held in the name of a custodian must contact such entity sufficiently in advance of the Expiration Time if they wish to Consent.

Direct Participants in Euroclear or Clearstream delivering Consents must give authority to Euroclear or Clearstream to disclose its identity to the Issuer, the Trustee or the Tabulation Agent.

DTC

The Solicitation in respect of the Dollar Notes is being conducted in a manner eligible for use of the Automated Tender Offer Program (“ATOP”) of DTC. At the date of this Consent Solicitation Statement, all of the Dollar Notes are registered in the name of the nominee of DTC. In turn, the Dollar Notes are recorded on DTC’s books in the names of DTC participants (the “DTC Participants”) who hold Dollar Notes either for themselves or for the ultimate beneficial owners. In order to cause Consents to be delivered with respect to Dollar Notes held through DTC, DTC Participants must electronically deliver a Consent by causing DTC to transfer and surrender its Dollar Notes to the Tabulation Agent in accordance with DTC’s ATOP procedures. In order to be valid, such transfers must be in minimum denominations of $100,000 and multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. By making such transfer, DTC Participants will be deemed to have delivered a Consent with respect to any Dollar Notes so transferred and surrendered. DTC will verify each transfer and surrender of Dollar Notes and confirm the electronic delivery of a Consent by sending an Agent’s Message (as defined below) to the Tabulation Agent.  Any Dollar Notes transferred and surrendered will be held by the Tabulation Agent and will not be available for transfer to third parties until the Tabulation Agent returns the Dollar Notes as provided for below.

25

The term “Agent’s Message” means a message transmitted by DTC, received by the Tabulation Agent, and forming part of the Book-Entry Confirmation (as defined below), which states that DTC has received an express acknowledgment from the DTC Participant delivering Consents which are the subject of such Book-Entry Confirmation that such DTC Participant (i) has received and agrees to be bound by the terms of the Solicitation as set forth in this Consent Solicitation Statement and that the Issuer and the Guarantors may enforce such agreement against such participant, and (ii) consents to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers and the execution and delivery of the Supplemental Indenture as described in this Consent Solicitation Statement.  Holders desiring to deliver their Consents prior to the Expiration Time should note that they must allow sufficient time for completion of the ATOP procedures during the normal business hours of DTC on such respective date.  Consents not received by the Tabulation Agent prior to the Expiration Time will be disregarded and of no effect.

No Letter of Transmittal or Consent Form

No Consent Form or Letter of Transmittal needs to be executed in relation to either Solicitation or the Consents delivered through DTC. The valid electronic delivery of Consents through the temporary transfer and surrender of existing Dollar Notes in accordance with DTC’s ATOP procedures shall constitute a written consent to the Solicitation.

No Guaranteed Delivery

There are no guaranteed delivery procedures provided by the Issuer in connection with the Solicitation. Beneficial owners of Notes that are held in the name of a custodian must contact such entity sufficiently in advance of the Expiration Date if they wish to deliver Consents.

Direct Participants in DTC delivering Consents must give authority to the relevant Clearing System to disclose its identity to the Trustee or the Information and Tabulation Agent.

In each case, the Issuer shall have the right to determine whether any purported Consent satisfies the requirements of this Consent Solicitation Statement and the Indenture, and any such determination shall be final and binding on the Holder who delivered such Consent or purported Consent.

Book-Entry Transfer

The Tabulation Agent will establish and maintain one or more accounts with respect to the Dollar Notes at DTC (the “Book Entry Transfer Facility”) promptly after the date of this Consent Solicitation Statement (to the extent such arrangements have not been made previously by the Tabulation Agent), and any financial institution who is a DTC Participant and whose name appears on a security position listing as the owner of the Dollar Notes may make book-entry delivery and surrender of Dollar Notes into one of the Tabulation Agent’s accounts in accordance with the Book-Entry Transfer Facility’s procedures for such transfer. The confirmation of a book-entry transfer of Dollar Notes into one of the Tabulation Agent’s accounts at DTC as described above is referred to herein as a “Book-Entry Confirmation.”

The Dollar Notes transferred to the Tabulation Agent as part of the Solicitation prior to the Expiration Time will be held under a temporary CUSIP number (the “Expiration Temporary CUSIP Number”), established by DTC during the period beginning at the time the DTC Participant electronically delivers a Consent and ending on the earlier of (i) the Expiration Time and (ii) the date on which the DTC Participant delivers a properly formatted and transmitted withdrawal request to the Tabulation Agent, withdrawing a Consent prior to the Revocation Deadline. On the next business day following the Expiration Time or the date of any valid withdrawal pursuant to a withdrawal request delivered to the Tabulation Agent for return to DTC prior to the Revocation Deadline, the Dollar Notes will be transferred back to the DTC Participants and will trade under its original CUSIP numbers.  During the period that Dollar Notes are held under a temporary CUSIP number or numbers, such Dollar Notes will not be freely transferable to third parties.  After submitting the Agent’s Message, the DTC Participant’s position will be blocked, and cannot be transferred or sold, until the Expiration Time. The Tabulation Agent will send DTC notice to release the positions as soon as practical but no later than three (3) business days after either the expiration of the event or subsequent date following the expiration not exceeding forty-five (45) calendar days from the onset of the event. On the applicable Payment Dates, the Consent Payment will be paid directly to DTC for payment to DTC Participants that held an Expiration Temporary CUSIP Number on the Expiration Time.

26

Representations, Warranties and Undertaking

By transferring and surrendering Dollar Notes to the Tabulation Agent in accordance with DTC’s ATOP procedures, the consenting holder is deemed to represent, warrant and undertake to the Issuer, the Trustee and the Tabulation Agent that:

·                                          the Consenting Holder is a Holder of the Dollar Notes;

·                                          the Consenting Holder has received, reviewed and accepted the terms of this Consent Solicitation Statement;

·                                          the Consenting Holder acknowledges that it consents to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers as described in this Consent Solicitation Statement. The Consenting Holder acknowledges that the transfer and surrender of Dollar Notes to the Tabulation Agent in accordance with DTC’s ATOP procedures to this effect constitutes the Consenting Holder’s written consent to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers;

·                                          the Consenting Holder acknowledges that all authority conferred or agreed to be conferred pursuant to these representations, warranties and undertakings and every obligation of the Consenting Holder and the Consents given by the Consenting Holder shall be binding (to the extent applicable in law) upon the successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators, trustees in bankruptcy and legal representatives of the consenting holder and shall not be affected by, and shall survive, the death or incapacity of the Consenting Holder;

·                                          the Consenting Holder acknowledges that the Consenting Holder reviewed the offering restrictions set forth in this Consent Solicitation Statement and that such Consenting Holder’s participation in the Consent Solicitation does not conflict with such restrictions;

27

·                                          the Consenting Holder authorizes, directs and requests that the Trustee enter into the Supplemental Indenture to implement the Proposed Amendments and Waivers;

·                                          the Consenting Holder empowers, authorizes and requests the Trustee to do all such other things as may be necessary or expedient to carry out and give effect to the Consent Solicitation. The Consenting Holder declares and acknowledges that the Trustee will not be held responsible for any liabilities or consequences arising as a result of acts taken by it or pursuant to the terms of the Consent Solicitation or the Consent Solicitation Statement and the Consenting Holder further declares that the Trustee has no responsibility for the terms of the Consent Solicitation or the Consent Solicitation Statement; and

·                                          the Consenting Holder hereby acknowledges that its Consent and the transaction contemplated hereby shall not be deemed to be investment advice or a recommendation as to a course of conduct by the Trustee or any of its officers, directors, employees or agents. The Consenting Holder further represents that, in transferring and surrendering Dollar Notes to the Tabulation Agent in accordance with DTC’s ATOP procedures, it has made an independent decision in consultation with its own agents and professionals to the extent that it considers it necessary.

The Issuer has the right to extend or terminate the Solicitation in its sole discretion at any time and for any reason, including for failure to satisfy any condition to the Solicitation. The Expiration Time may not occur on the schedule described in this Consent Solicitation Statement, if at all. Accordingly, Holders that deliver and surrender its Dollar Notes and thereby deliver an electronic Consent, to the extent not validly revoked prior to the Effective Time, may have to wait longer than expected for the Expiration Time, during which time such Holders will not be able to effect transfers or sales of its Dollar Notes to third parties until the Tabulation Agent returns the Dollar Notes on the next business day following the Expiration Time.

The Issuer will resolve all questions as to the validity, form, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance and revocations of the Consents and such determinations will be binding. The Issuer reserves the right to reject any or all Consents and revocations not validly given or any Consents the Issuer’s acceptance of which could, in the opinion of counsel to the Issuer, be unlawful. The Issuer also reserves the right to waive any defects or irregularities in connection with deliveries or to require a cure of such irregularities within such time as the Issuer determines. None of the Issuer, the Tabulation Agent, the Information Agent, the Solicitation Agent or the Trustee or any other person shall have any duty to give notification of any such waiver, defects or irregularities, nor shall any of them incur any liability for failure to give such notification. Delivery of Consents or notices of revocations will be deemed not to have been made until such irregularities have been cured or waived.

Revocation of Consents

A Holder may revoke its Consent at any time prior to but not after the Revocation Deadline.  All Consents received prior to the Expiration Time will be counted, unless, at any time prior to the Revocation Deadline, a notice of revocation is delivered in accordance with the procedures of Euroclear, Clearstream and/or DTC, as described below.  Any notice of revocation or withdrawal request received after the Revocation Deadline will not be effective, even if received prior to the Expiration Time.  Until the Effective Time, a Consent by a Holder of the Notes will bind the Holder and every subsequent holder of such Notes or portion of such Notes, even if notation of the Consent is not made on such Notes.

28

Any Holder of Sterling Notes that has delivered Consents through Euroclear or Clearstream may revoke such Consents prior to the Revocation Deadline by submission of an electronic withdrawal instruction through Euroclear or Clearstream. If the Holder has requested that a custodian submit an Electronic Consent Instruction on its behalf and wishes to withdraw its Electronic Consent Instruction, the Holder should contact such custodian prior to the Revocation Deadline.  The Holder should be aware, however, that the custodian may impose earlier deadlines for withdrawing or revising an Electronic Consent Instruction in accordance with its procedures.

DTC Participants who wish to exercise its right of revocation with respect to the Solicitation in respect of Dollar Notes must deliver a properly formatted and transmitted withdrawal request message to the Tabulation Agent for return to DTC or through ATOP procedures prior to the Revocation Deadline. In order to be valid, a withdrawal request must specify the name of the person as to which the Consent is to be revoked or who deposited the Dollar Notes to be withdrawn (the “Depositor”), the name of the participant in DTC whose name appears on the security position listing as the owner of such Dollar Notes, if different from that of the Depositor, and a description of the Dollar Notes to which the revocation relates (including the principal amount of Dollar Notes to which the revocation relates). If certificates have been identified through confirmation of book-entry transfer of such Dollar Notes to the Tabulation Agent, the name of the Holder and the certificate number or numbers relating to such Dollar Notes withdrawn must also be furnished to the Tabulation Agent as aforesaid prior to the name and number of the account at DTC to be credited with withdrawn Dollar Notes for the Dollar Notes previously transferred by book-entry.

To be effective, a notice of revocation must be in a format customarily used by the applicable Clearing System.

A revocation of the Consent will be effective only as to the Notes listed on the revocation and only if such revocation complies with the provisions of this Consent Solicitation Statement.  Only a Holder is entitled to revoke a Consent previously given.  A beneficial owner of the Notes must arrange with its broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee company to execute and deliver on its behalf a revocation of any Consent already given with respect to such Notes.

A purported notice of revocation that is not received by the Tabulation Agent or through ATOP procedures in a timely fashion and accepted by the Issuer as a valid revocation will not be effective to revoke a Consent previously given.

A revocation of a Consent may only be rescinded by the execution and delivery of a new Consent in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Consent Solicitation Statement.  A Holder who has delivered a revocation may after such revocation deliver a new electronic instruction at any time prior to the Expiration Time.

29

The Issuer reserves the right to contest the validity of any revocations.

All revocations of Consents must be delivered in accordance with the customary procedures of Euroclear, Clearstream and DTC’s ATOP, as applicable.

CERTAIN TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The discussion set out below represents a summary of the anticipated tax consequences in certain jurisdictions with regard to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers becoming operative and the Consent Payment. Regardless of the summaries presented below, Holders are advised to consult their own tax advisors as to the tax considerations related to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers becoming effective and the Consent Payment.

United Kingdom Taxation Consequences

The following is a general summary of the Issuer’s understanding of certain of the UK tax consequences that will arise as a result of the implementation of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers and the Holders’ receipt of any Consent Payment. It is based on current UK legislation and currently published HM Revenue and Customs practice as at the date of this document, both of which are subject to change, possibly with retrospective effect.  It does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all the UK tax considerations that may be relevant to Holders.

The following paragraphs apply to individual and corporate Holders resident (or, if individuals, ordinarily resident or temporarily non-UK resident) for tax purposes in the United Kingdom who hold the Notes as an investment and who are the absolute beneficial owners of those Notes.

Certain categories of Holders, such as traders, broker-dealers, insurance companies and collective investment schemes, and Holders who are not domiciled or not ordinarily resident in the United Kingdom may be subject to special rules not covered in this summary.

Holders are advised to consult their tax advisers as to the UK or other tax consequences relating to the Consent Payment, including the effect of any local tax laws.

Corporation tax payers

In general, Holders who are within the charge to UK corporation tax will be charged to UK tax on the Consent Payment as income arising from their holding of the Notes broadly in accordance with their statutory accounting treatment.

Individual tax payers

Income Tax

The Notes are likely to qualify as “deeply discounted securities” under the legislation contained in Chapter 8 of Part 4 of Income Tax (Trading and Other Income) Act 2005 (although arguments may be made to the contrary). The implementation of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers is not expected to result in a disposal of the Notes for the purposes of that legislation, however. On that basis, Holders who are individuals should not be subject to income tax under this legislation as a result of receiving the Consent Payment even if the Notes do qualify as “deeply discounted securities.”

31

Capital Gains Tax

Holders of Sterling Notes: The Consent Payment is expected to be treated as a capital sum derived from the Sterling Notes.  The Sterling Notes should constitute “qualifying corporate bonds” for the purposes of UK capital gains tax. Accordingly, the receipt of a Consent Payment by a holder of Sterling Notes should not give rise to a liability to UK capital gains tax.

Holders of Dollar Notes:  The Consent Payment is expected to be treated as a capital sum derived from the Dollar Notes.  If the Dollar Notes qualify as “deeply discounted securities”, as is likely to be the case (see also above), the Dollar Notes should additionally qualify as “qualifying corporate bonds” for the purposes of UK capital gains tax. In such circumstances, the receipt of a Consent Payment by a holder of Dollar Notes should not give rise to a liability to UK capital gains tax.

If, in contrast, the Dollar Notes do not qualify as “deeply discounted securities”, they should also not qualify as “qualifying corporate bonds” for the purposes of UK capital gains tax. In such circumstances, the receipt of a Consent Payment by a holder of Dollar Notes is expected to result in a part-disposal of his Dollar Notes for the purposes of UK capital gains tax, which may, depending on the amount of the gain and the holder’s individual circumstances (including the availability of exemptions and allowable losses), give rise to a liability to UK capital gains tax.  The capital gains annual exemption (which is £10,600 for the 2012/13 tax year) should be available to individual Holders to offset any chargeable gain (to the extent it has not already been used).

A Holder who is an individual and who is temporarily resident outside the United Kingdom for taxation purposes may, under anti-avoidance legislation, still be liable to UK capital gains tax in respect of a Consent Payment despite receiving the payment during the period when he is non-resident.

Withholding tax

UK legislation contains certain provisions whereby a payment of interest on the Notes may be subject to deduction of income tax at the basic rate (currently 20%) in certain circumstances. The Consent Payment should not constitute interest for these purposes. Consequently, there should be no deduction or withholding on account of UK income tax in respect of the Consent Payment.

Stamp duty and stamp duty reserve tax (“SDRT”)

No UK stamp duty or SDRT should be payable in connection the Consent Payment.

Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations

TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE WITH TREASURY DEPARTMENT CIRCULAR 230, YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED THAT: (I) ANY DISCUSSION OF U.S. FEDERAL TAX ISSUES IN THIS CONSENT SOLICITATION STATEMENT IS NOT INTENDED OR WRITTEN TO BE RELIED UPON, AND CANNOT BE RELIED UPON, FOR THE PURPOSE OF AVOIDING PENALTIES THAT MAY BE IMPOSED UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED (THE ‘‘CODE’’); (II) SUCH DISCUSSION IS WRITTEN IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROMOTION OR MARKETING OF THE TRANSACTIONS OR MATTERS ADDRESSED HEREIN; AND (III) HOLDERS SHOULD SEEK ADVICE BASED ON THEIR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES FROM AN INDEPENDENT TAX ADVISER.

32

The following summary describes certain U.S. federal income tax considerations for beneficial owners of the Notes related to the Solicitation, including the adoption of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers and the receipt of the Consent Payment.  This summary does not address the U.S. federal income tax considerations related to the acquisition, ownership or disposition of the Notes.  This discussion deals only with U.S. Holders (as defined below) that hold their Notes as capital assets and does not deal with holders subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax laws, for example, dealers in securities or currencies, banks or other financial institutions, tax-exempt entities, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, individual retirement accounts or other tax-deferred accounts, partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes, traders in securities that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for their securities holdings, persons liable for alternative minimum tax, persons holding Notes as part of a hedging, integrated, conversion or constructive sale transaction or a straddle, U.S. expatriates or U.S. Holders of Notes whose “functional currency” is not the U.S. dollar.

Furthermore, the discussion below is based upon the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the Code), and the U.S. Treasury Regulations, administrative pronouncements and judicial decisions thereunder as of the date of this consent solicitation statement.  These authorities may be repealed, revoked or modified, perhaps retroactively, so as to result in U.S. federal income tax considerations different from those discussed below.  This summary does not represent a detailed description of the U.S. federal income tax considerations relevant to a holder in light of the holder’s particular circumstances and does not address U.S. state, local or non-U.S. tax considerations or any U.S. tax considerations (e.g., the estate and gift tax or the newly effective 3.8% Medicare tax on net investment income) other than U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be applicable to particular U.S. Holders.

Persons considering the Solicitation should consult their own tax advisors concerning the U.S. federal income tax considerations related to their particular situations as well as any considerations arising under the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction.

As used herein, a “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of a Note that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (i) an individual citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a corporation or other entity classified as a corporation for these purposes, created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state or any political subdivision thereof or the District of Columbia, (iii) an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source or (iv) a trust (X) that is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and the control of one or more United States persons as described in section 7701(a)(30) of the Code or (Y) that has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations to be treated as a United States person.

33

If a partnership (or other entity or arrangement classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds the Notes, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership.  If you are a partner of a partnership (or a member of an entity or arrangement classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holding the Notes, you should consult your tax advisors.

U.S. Tax Considerations for Non-Consenting U.S. Holders

If the Proposed Amendments and Waivers become effective with respect to the Notes, the tax treatment of a U.S. Holder who does not consent to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers will depend upon whether the modification to the holder’s Note results in a “deemed exchange” of an old debt instrument for a new debt instrument for federal income tax purposes.  Generally, the modification of a debt instrument will be treated as a deemed exchange of an old debt instrument for a new debt instrument if such modification is “significant” within the meaning of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 1001 of the Code (the “Regulations”).  A modification is “significant” if, based on all the facts and circumstances and taking into account all modifications of the debt instrument collectively, the legal rights and obligations that are altered and the degree to which they are altered are economically significant.  The Regulations also provide that a modification that adds, deletes or alters customary accounting or financial covenants does not give rise to a “significant modification” of the debt instrument but do not define “customary accounting or financial covenants.”

The Issuer believes that the adoption of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers should not result in a “significant modification” to the terms of the Notes under the Regulations because the Proposed Amendments and Waivers are modifications to customary accounting or financial covenants, or alternatively, because the modifications to the terms of the Notes are not “significant” under a facts and circumstances analysis.  Therefore, a U.S. Holder who does not consent to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers should not recognize any gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the adoption of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers.

U.S. Tax Considerations for Consenting U.S. Holders

The Issuer believes that the receipt of the Consent Payment and the adoption of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers should not result in a deemed taxable exchange of the Notes, and therefore, a consenting U.S. Holder should not recognize any gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes (except with respect to the receipt of the Consent Payment, as discussed below).  The Regulations provide that a change in yield of a debt instrument is not a significant modification unless the yield of the modified instrument (taking into account any Consent Payment received by a U.S. Holder) varies from the yield on the unmodified instrument by more than the greater of 25 basis points or 5 percent of the annual yield of the unmodified instrument (a “significant change in yield”).  The Issuer expects that the receipt of the Consent Payment should not result in a “significant modification” to the terms of the Notes because the receipt of the Consent Payment should not result in a significant change in yield of the Notes.  Further, the Issuer expects that the adoption of the Proposed Amendments and Waivers, independently (as discussed above under “—U.S. Tax Considerations for Non-Consenting U.S. Holders”) or together with the receipt of the Consent Payment, should not result in a “significant modification” to the terms of the Notes under the Regulations.

34

The U.S. federal income tax treatment of a U.S. Holder’s receipt of the Consent Payment is unclear.  Under one alternative, the Waiver Payment and the Amendment Payment would each be treated first as a payment of accrued and unpaid interest on the U.S. Holder’s Notes and second as a payment of principal on the Notes.  In such a case, the portion of each of the Waiver Payment and the Amendment Payment treated as accrued and unpaid interest would be includible in gross income as ordinary interest income, to the extent not previously included in income, and would be treated similarly to stated interest on the Notes with respect to the source and treatment of the amounts for U.S. tax purposes.  The portion of each of the Waiver Payment and the Amendment Payment treated as a payment of principal on the Notes will decrease the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Notes.  In the case of a Sterling Note, a U.S. Holder may realize foreign currency gain or loss with respect to the interest and principal deemed paid with the Waiver Payment and/or with the Amendment Payment.

Alternatively, the Consent Payment may be treated as separate consideration for consenting to the Proposed Amendments and Waivers.  In such case, the Consent Payment would be includible in gross income as ordinary income in accordance with a U.S. Holder’s usual method of accounting for tax purposes.  The source of the Consent Payment (if treated as separate consideration) for U.S. foreign tax credit limitation purposes is not clear.  A U.S. Holder of a Sterling Note that uses the cash method of accounting and receives the Consent Payment in pounds sterling would measure the amount of the payment received by translating the amount of pounds sterling into U.S. dollars at the spot rate on the date of receipt of each of the Waiver Payment and the Amendment Payment.  A U.S. Holder of a Sterling Note that uses the accrual method of accounting and receives the Consent Payment in pounds sterling would measure the amount of the payment received by translating the amount of pounds sterling into U.S. dollars at the spot rate on the date of accrual.  A U.S. Holder generally will recognize exchange gain or loss, as the case may be, on the receipt of pounds sterling to the extent that the exchange rate on the date payment is received differs from the rate applicable to the accrual of that income.  This foreign currency gain or loss will generally be treated as ordinary income or loss, and sourced to the U.S. for foreign tax credit limitation purposes.

U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the receipt of the Consent Payment, including the treatment and source thereof for U.S. federal income tax purposes and in the case of Sterling Notes, the foreign currency gain or loss implications.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Backup withholding and information reporting requirements may apply to the receipt of the Consent Payment by certain U.S. Holders.  The payor may be required to withhold backup withholding at a current rate of 28% on a Consent Payment made within the United States, or by a U.S. payor or U.S. middleman or certain of their affiliates, on a Note to a holder of a Note that is a U.S. person, other than an exempt recipient, if the holder fails to furnish its correct taxpayer identification number or otherwise fails to comply with, or establish an exemption from, the backup withholding requirements.

35

Backup withholding is not an additional tax.  U.S. Holders generally will be entitled to credit any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules against such Holder’s federal income tax liability or to a refund of the amounts withheld, provided the required information is furnished to the IRS in a timely manner.

The above summary is not intended to constitute a complete analysis of all U.S. federal income tax considerations related to the Solicitation. Each prospective investor should consult its own tax advisor with respect to the U.S. federal, state and local and foreign and other tax considerations related to the Solicitation.
