OTHER EVENTS.

On March 19, 2019, Twenty-First Century Fox, Inc.

Subject to election, proration and adjustment procedures set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Acquisition, each share of 21CF common stock will be exchanged for $51.572626 in cash (the “Cash Consideration”) or 0.4517 shares of common stock of New Disney (the “Stock Consideration”, and together with the Cash Consideration, the ”Merger Consideration”). The number of shares of New Disney common stock comprising the Stock Consideration was determined by dividing the Per Share Value by $114.1801, which was the volume weighted average trading price of a share of Disney common stock on the New York Stock Exchange over the fifteen consecutive trading day period ending on (and including) March 15, 2019.
