SKY NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING 2026
Resolution 5: Approval of the
NRL Rights Transaction
Special Resolution
The following explanatory notes are provided
for the purpose of assisting Shareholders to
understand the effect of the proposed Special
Resolution to approve the NRL Rights Transaction
(the Special Resolution) and therefore to decide
how to exercise their voting rights. Certain
information in relation to the NRL Rights
Transaction is confidential to the parties or is
commercially sensitive to Sky and therefore will not
be disclosed. Sky considers that these explanatory
notes provide sufficient information to enable
Shareholders to determine whether or not to vote
in favour of the NRL Rights Transaction.
Capitalised terms used in these explanatory notes
have the meaning given in the Definitions on page 9
of these explanatory notes, or as otherwise defined
within these explanatory notes.
Directors’ recommendation to
approve the Special Resolution
The Board fully supports the Special Resolution and
unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote
in favour of the Special Resolution. Directors have
indicated they will vote all Sky shares they hold (or
in respect of which they hold discretionary proxies)
in favour of the Special Resolution.
Overview of the NRL Rights
Transaction
Sky and the Australian Rugby League Commission
(ARLC) have reached agreement on the terms of a
seven-year broadcast partnership, commencing 1
January 2028 following expiry of the Current NRL
Rights, and this agreement is conditional on Sky
Shareholder approval. Accordingly, Shareholders
are now being asked to approve the proposed
acquisition by Sky of the New Zealand media rights
for certain rugby league matches and competitions
played in the period from 1 January 2028 up to
31 December 2034 (referred to as the NRL Rights
Period) that are controlled by ARLC, which will
include rights for the Matches described below
(which is collectively referred to as the NRL Rights
Transaction).
The Matches are expected to include:
• All national men’s premiership rugby league
competition (NRL) and national women’s
premiership rugby league competition (NRLW)
matches (including all regular season and finals
series matches, including the Grand Final).
• All State of Origin series matches (including
Men’s, Women’s and underage matches).
• Pre-Season Challenge (official pre-season
matches between NRL clubs).
• World Club Challenge matches involving NRL
clubs, to the extent the ARLC holds such rights in
New Zealand.
• Men’s and Women’s Indigenous All Stars fixtures
(if played).
• All Men’s and Women’s Pacific Championships
matches (including the Pacific Bowl and Pacific
Championships).
• Australia vs New Zealand Men’s bilateral Test
Matches (excluding matches organised by the
International Rugby League, New Zealand Rugby
League (NZRL), or any third party, or matches
played as part of a multi-nation tournament).
• Australia v New Zealand Women’s bilateral Test
Matches.
• All Men’s and Women’s U20’s Australia vs New
Zealand Test Matches.
• Other Men’s and Women’s Australian bilateral
Test Matches, not involving New Zealand and not
part of a multi-nation tournament.
Key Terms of NRL Rights Transaction
The consideration payable for the NRL Rights
is confidential between the parties and is
commercially sensitive information for Sky and it
would not be in the best interests of Shareholders
to disclose that information. However, Sky provides
the following context for Shareholders as to the
value of the NRL Rights which will be paid by Sky
under the NRL Rights Transaction:
• Shareholder approval of Sky’s entry into the
NRL Rights Transaction is required under section
129 of the Companies Act because the value of
the assets to be acquired by Sky (being the NRL
Rights) is more than half the value of Sky’s assets
before the acquisition and because Sky will
incur obligations or liabilities (being principally
6
SKY NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING 2026
the obligation to pay for the NRL Rights and
related production obligations) in excess of half
the value of Sky’s assets before the NRL Rights
Transaction. As at 30 June 2026, Sky’s total
assets in its Consolidated Balance Sheet was
$738,852,000.
• Shareholder approval to Sky’s entry into the NRL
Rights Transaction is also required under NZX
Listing Rule 5.1.1 because the “Gross Value” of
the assets to be acquired by Sky (being the NRL
Rights) exceeds 50% of Sky’s “Average Market
Capitalisation” (as those terms are defined in the
NZX Listing Rules).
As at 7 July 2026, Sky’s Average Market
Capitalisation was $443,795,395.
• Sky has maintained a focus on optimising
programming costs as a percentage of revenue,
and achieved its FY26 target for programming
costs of between 47% – 49% of revenue. Sky
expects Group programming costs to remain
at or below these levels in FY28, following
the commencement of the new NRL rights
agreement. Sky’s EBITDA guidance for FY27 of
between $155 to $165 million does not include
the costs associated with the NRL Rights
Transaction, which commences in January 2028.
The consideration payable under the NRL Rights
Transaction will be made in monthly instalments
spread over the term of the contract (84
months), and will be budgeted for and paid from
working capital.
As the holder of the NRL Rights, Sky will have the
responsibility for producing coverage of certain
matches played in New Zealand, including all NRL
and NRLW Premiership (including Finals Series),
State of Origin, Pacific Championships, Indigenous
v Māori All-Stars and New Zealand Warriors pre-
season fixtures that are played in New Zealand.
Sky will be able to distribute and exploit audio-
visual and/or audio only coverage of the Matches in
New Zealand via any and all media and on a
live and/or delayed basis and including via clips
and highlights.
While the NRL Rights will be granted on an
exclusive basis, there will be limited use rights
granted in favour of ARLC, NRL clubs and other
licensees of ARLC.
The NRL Rights Transaction will also give Sky
access to, and the right to distribute and exhibit
within New Zealand, audio-visual coverage of
Archive Matches on a non-exclusive basis.
Business As Usual
The NRL Rights Transaction represents an activity
undertaken by Sky in the ordinary course of
business and, importantly, is not the result of
any change or shift in Sky’s strategy or rights
acquisition activities. Sky has a longstanding
commercial relationship with the ARLC and has
held the NRL rights for more than 30 years.
The NRL Rights Transaction is consistent with Sky’s
business strategy of acquiring and distributing
content rights and is within the core expertise,
responsibility and accountability of Sky’s executive
management team and Board. Content acquisition
is a fundamental and essential aspect of Sky’s
business, of which Sky has 36 years’ experience.
Other considerations include:
• The NRL Rights Transaction does not involve
the immediate expenditure of large amounts
of Company funds given that payments will be
spread over the term of the contract starting
from 1 January 2028.
• Sky’s total programming costs are disclosed in
the annual and half year reports and are carefully
budgeted and managed by Sky’s executive
management team and the Board. If shareholder
approval is obtained and the NRL Rights
Transaction proceeds, the NRL Rights Transaction
will be included in the total programming costs in
SKT’s next applicable financial statements.
• The Directors have duties to act in the best
interest of Sky and have approved entry into
the NRL Rights Transaction on terms that they
believe are commercially sensible for Sky and in
its best interests.

SKY NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING 2026
Requirements for Shareholder
approval
Under section 129 of the Companies Act, a company
must not enter into a major transaction unless
the transaction is approved, or is conditional on
approval, by a Special Resolution of the company’s
Shareholders. A major transaction includes the
acquisition of, or an agreement to acquire, assets
the value of which is more than half the value of the
company’s assets before the acquisition. A major
transaction also includes a transaction that has, or
is likely to have, the effect of the company incurring
obligations or liabilities the value of which is more
than half the value of the company’s assets before
the transaction.
As noted above, the value of the NRL Rights and
the obligations or liabilities Sky will incur is in excess
of half the value of Sky’s total assets as at 30 June
2026. Accordingly, approval of Sky’s entry into the
NRL Rights Transaction is required under section
129 of the Companies Act by Special Resolution
of Shareholders.
Under NZX Listing Rule 5.1.1(b), a listed issuer must
obtain Shareholder approval by way of an Ordinary
Resolution of Shareholders for an acquisition of
assets in respect of which the Gross Value exceeds
50% of the issuer’s Average Market Capitalisation.
Where approval is also required by Special
Resolution under section 129 of the Companies
Act for that acquisition (as is the case for the NRL
Rights Transaction), the approval threshold under
NZX Listing Rule 5.1.1 is also a Special Resolution
of Shareholders. As noted above, the Gross Value
of the NRL Rights exceeds 50% of Sky’s Average
Market Capitalisation. Accordingly, approval of
Sky’s entry into the NRL Rights Transaction is also
required under NZX Listing Rule 5.1.1 by Special
Resolution of Shareholders.
Consequences if the Special
Resolution is passed
The NRL Rights Transaction agreements have
been entered into by Sky on a legally binding basis
but are conditional on Sky obtaining Shareholder
approval of the transactions described in those
agreements by or on the date of Sky’s 2026 Annual
Meeting (referred to as the Condition Precedent).
If Shareholders approve the Special Resolution by
the requisite majority, the Condition Precedent will
be fulfilled.
If the Special Resolution is passed, any Shareholder
who votes all of their shares against the Special
Resolution will be able to require Sky to purchase
their shares (or arrange for their purchase) as
further detailed under the Minority Buy-out Rights
section below.
Consequences if the Special
Resolution is not passed
If Shareholder approval of the NRL Rights
Transaction is not obtained, the Condition
Precedent will not be satisfied and the NRL
Rights Transaction agreements will automatically
terminate. In this scenario, the Board will continue
to have discretion to acquire the NRL Rights but
only for a total consideration which does not trigger
the requirement to obtain Shareholder approval
under the Companies Act or the NZX Listing Rules.
In this case, it becomes more unlikely that Sky will
be able to acquire the NRL Rights. This is because
Sky anticipates the market value of the NRL Rights
and their purchase price could be higher than the
relevant thresholds and details of what Sky can bid
will become transparent, allowing competitors to
anticipate and outbid Sky.
To date, the NRL Rights cannot be replicated from
other sources and have always been granted on
an exclusive basis in New Zealand, reflecting the
value and commercial opportunity that exclusivity
provides. This maximises the value of the NRL
Rights, as it creates certainty for the rights holder,
and it is likely that this will continue (other than
with the specific carve-outs mentioned above).
As a result, if the Special Resolution is not approved
and Sky does not become the holder of the NRL
Rights, Sky expects there would be no alternative
means of acquiring the NRL Rights as they are likely
to be sold to another party on an exclusive basis
and/or exploited direct to consumer by ARLC.
This is expected to have an adverse impact on Sky
and Shareholders.
8
SKY NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING 2026
Minority Buy-out Rights
Section 110 of the Companies Act may confer
minority buy-out rights on Shareholders who vote
against the Special Resolution.
For a Shareholder to exercise those minority buy-
out rights, the Shareholder must cast all the votes
attached to shares registered in the Shareholder’s
name and having the same beneficial owner
against the Special Resolution. If the Special
Resolution is nevertheless passed, a Shareholder
who wishes to exercise minority buy-out rights
must, within 10 working days of the passing of
the Special Resolution, give written notice to Sky
that the Shareholder requires Sky to purchase the
Shareholder’s shares.
Within 20 working days of receipt of the notice,
the Board of Sky must:
a. Agree to the purchase of the relevant shares by
Sky; or
b. Arrange for some other person to agree to
purchase the relevant shares; or
c. Apply to the court for an order exempting Sky
from the obligation to purchase the relevant
shares on the grounds that the purchase would
be disproportionately damaging to Sky or that
Sky cannot reasonably be required to finance the
purchase or it would not be just and equitable
to require Sky to purchase the relevant shares
or on the grounds that the Board has resolved
that the purchase of the relevant shares by Sky
would result in it failing to satisfy the solvency
test and Sky has, having made reasonable efforts
to do so, been unable to arrange for the relevant
shares to be purchased by another person; or
d. Arrange for the Special Resolution to be
rescinded by Special Resolution of Shareholders,
or decide in the appropriate manner not to take
the action concerned, as the case may be; and
e. Give written notice to the Shareholder of the
Board’s decision as to which of the above actions
it will take.
Where the Board agrees to the purchase of the
relevant shares by Sky, it must give notice to the
relevant Shareholder within five working days
after the written notice of the Board’s decision
referred to in the preceding paragraph, setting out
the price the Board offers to pay for those shares
and certain information relating to how that price
was calculated. That price must be a fair and
reasonable price (as at the close of business on
the day before the Special Resolution was passed)
for the relevant shares held by the Shareholder,
calculated (subject to the following two sentences)
using a default methodology described in the
Companies Act designed to allocate to the relevant
shares held by the Shareholder a pro rata portion
of the fair and reasonable value of all shares in Sky
adjusted to exclude any fluctuation in the value of
all shares that occurred and that was due to, or in
expectation of, the NRL Rights Transaction.
The Board may use a different methodology to
calculate the fair and reasonable price if using
the default methodology would be clearly unfair
to the Shareholder or Sky (and in that case the
Board must also state in the notice that a different
methodology has been used and why calculating
the price under the default methodology would be
clearly unfair).
A Shareholder may object to the price offered by
the Board by giving written notice to Sky no later
than 10 working days after the date the Board
gave written notice to the Shareholder of the price
offered by the Board. If, within that 10-working
day period, no objection to the price offered by the
Board has been received by Sky, it must purchase
the relevant Shareholder’s shares at the nominated
price. If, within that 10-working day period, an
objection to the price has been received by Sky, the
fair and reasonable price offered by the Board must
be submitted to arbitration. Sky must within five
working days of receiving the objection pay to the
Shareholder on a provisional basis the price offered
by the Board.
The arbitration is to be conducted in accordance
with the Arbitration Act 1996. If the price
determined by the arbitrator:
a. Exceeds the provisional price paid by Sky,
then the arbitrator must order Sky to pay the
balance owing to the Shareholder; or
b. Is less than the provisional price paid by Sky,
then the arbitrator must order the Shareholder
to pay the excess to Sky.
Except in exceptional circumstances, the arbitrator
must award interest on any balance payable or
excess to be repaid.
9
SKY NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING 2026
If a balance is owing to the Shareholder, the
arbitrator may award to the Shareholder, in
addition to or instead of interest, damages for loss
attributable to the shortfall in the initial payment.
Where the Board agrees to the purchase of the
relevant shares by Sky, on the day on which the
Board gives written notice of the Board’s decision
to the purchase of the relevant shares by Sky, the
legal title to those shares passes to Sky and the
rights of the relevant Shareholder in relation to
those shares end.

How to Vote on Items of Business
All your shares in Sky Network Television Limited (the Company) will be voted in
accordance with your directions.
Appointment of Proxy
If you do not plan to attend the meeting, you may appoint a proxy. A proxy need not be
a shareholder of the Company. The Chair of the meeting, or any other director, is willing
to act as proxy for any shareholder who wishes to appoint them for that purpose. To do
this, enter ‘the Chair’ or the name of your proxy in the space allocated in ‘Step 1’ of
this form.
If you do not name a person as your proxy, but otherwise complete the
Proxy/Voting Form in full, or your named proxy does not attend the meeting, the Chair
will be appointed your proxy and will vote in accordance with your express direction
(subject to any voting prohibitions).
Please note that you may still attend the meeting virtually should you appoint a proxy
noting that you will not be able to vote if a proxy has been appointed.
Voting of your holding
Direct your proxy how to vote by marking one of the boxes opposite each item
of business. If you do not mark a box your proxy may vote or abstain from voting as
they choose to the extent permitted by law and the relevant listing rules. If you mark
more than one box on an item your vote will be invalid on that item.
Voting Restrictions
No voting restrictions apply to the resolutions.

If you propose to attend the Annual Meeting in person, please bring this Proxy/Voting
Form to the meeting and hand this form to Computershare at the entrance to the
meeting. If a representative of a corporate security holder or proxy is to attend
