Notice of proceedings relating to proposed merger
SKY and Vodafone have received copies of proceedings filed on behalf of 2degrees, Spark
and InternetNZ seeking interim orders from the courts to stay the effect of any decision on the
clearance applications of SKY and Vodafone for the proposed merger, in the event that the
New Zealand Commerce Commission gives its clearance. The stay is sought for a period of
36 hours (in addition to any non-working day period) after receipt of the full reasons for the
decision.
A hearing time for these proceedings has been set down for Wednesday 22 February 2017 at
10:00a.m.
As previously advised, SKY does not consider that there is any proper basis for seeking an
interim stay and SKY intends to oppose any such application and seek an undertaking as to
damages.
