FOXA Fox Corporation

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Fox Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“FOX” or the “Company”), is a news, sports and entertainment company, which manages and reports its businesses in the following segments: Cable Network Programming, Television and Other, Corporate and Eliminations.

The Distribution

On March 19, 2019, the Company became a standalone publicly traded company through the pro rata distribution by Twenty-First Century Fox, Inc. (“21CF”) of all of the issued and outstanding common stock of FOX to 21CF stockholders (other than holders that were subsidiaries of 21CF) (the “Distribution”) in accordance with the Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 20, 2018, by and between 21CF and 21CF Distribution Merger Sub, Inc. Following the Distribution, 354,328,270 and 266,173,651 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), and Class B Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class B Common Stock” and, together with the Class A Common Stock, the “Common Stock”), respectively, began trading independently on The Nasdaq Global Select Market. In connection with the Distribution, the Company entered into the Separation and Distribution Agreement, dated as of March 19, 2019 (the “Separation Agreement”), with 21CF, which effected the internal restructuring (the “Separation”) whereby 21CF transferred to FOX a portfolio of 21CF’s news, sports and broadcast businesses, including FOX News , FOX Business , FOX Broadcasting Company (the “FOX Network”) , FOX Sports , FOX Television Stations Group, and sports cable networks FS1, FS2, FOX Deportes and Big Ten Network (collectively, the “FOX business”), and certain other assets, and FOX assumed from 21CF the liabilities associated with such businesses and certain other liabilities. The Separation and the Distribution were effected as part of a series of transactions (collectively, the “Transactions”) contemplated by the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 20, 2018 (the “21CF Disney Merger Agreement”), by and among 21CF, The Walt Disney Company (“Disney”), TWDC Holdco 613 Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Disney (“New Disney”), and certain other subsidiaries of Disney, pursuant to which, among other things, Disney merged with and into a subsidiary of New Disney and each of Disney and 21CF became wholly-owned subsidiaries of New Disney.

In connection with the Separation, the Company entered into several agreements that govern certain aspects of the Company’s relationship with 21CF and Disney following the Separation. These include the Separation Agreement, a tax matters agreement, a transition services agreement, as well as agreements relating to intellectual property licenses, employee matters, commercial arrangements and a studio lot lease and management agreement.

The Separation Agreement contains the key provisions relating to the Separation and the Distribution. The Separation Agreement identifies the assets that were transferred, the liabilities that were assumed and the contracts that were assigned to each of the Company and 21CF as part of the Separation and describes how these transfers, assumptions and assignments occurred. It also provides for cross-indemnities between the Company and 21CF.

Other matters governed by the Separation Agreement include access to financial and other information, confidentiality, access to and provision of records, continued access for the Company to 21CF insurance policies and shared contracts and certain third-party consent provisions. Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, the Company is the owner of all “FOX” brands and related trademarks, as well as all other intellectual property primarily related to the Company’s business. In addition, the Company has entered into certain trademark license agreements in connection with the use of certain intellectual property by 21CF.

The Company also entered into a tax matters agreement with Disney and 21CF that governs the parties’ respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to certain tax matters. Under the tax matters agreement, 21CF will generally indemnify the Company against any taxes required to be reported on a consolidated or separate tax return of 21CF and/or any of its subsidiaries, including any taxes resulting from the Separation and the Distribution, and the Company will generally indemnify 21CF against any taxes required to be reported on a separate tax return of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. The Company may also be responsible for certain taxes resulting from the anticipated divestitures by Disney of certain assets, primarily the FOX Sports Regional Sports Networks. The Transaction Tax (as defined below) included a prepayment of the Company’s share of the estimated tax liabilities resulting from the anticipated divestitures by Disney of these assets in the amount of approximately $700 million (which amount is subject to adjustment in the future, as described below).

In addition, the Company and 21CF entered into a transition services agreement under which the Company an d 21CF are providing specified services to each other on a transitional basis, including broadcast operations, sports production, information systems and technology, human resources services, finance and accounting, facilities and other corporate services. Generally, the term for the provision of services under the agreement extends for no longer than two years after the Separation, subject to certain rights of the parties to extend the term for an additional three months. To the extent transition services are utilized during the first two years after the Separation, the charges paid by the recipient for the services are generally limited to the cost of providing such services. The Company anticipates that it will generally be in a position to complete the t ransition of most services on or before the two-year anniversary of the Separation.

The Company owns the FOX Studios Lot in Los Angeles, California and is responsible for the management of the lot, including servicing and managing the facility and managing and providing studio operation services, including production operations and post-production services. The Company leased office space on the FOX Studios Lot to 21CF for an initial term of seven years, subject to two five-year renewal options exercisable by 21CF.

The Company also entered into an employee matters agreement with 21CF that governs the parties’ obligations with respect to certain employee-related liabilities and certain employee benefit plans, programs, policies and other related matters for employees of the Company (See Note 7 – Equity-Based Compensation and Note 10 – Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits).

Basis of Presentation

The Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements of FOX have been prepared in accordance with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X . In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been reflected in these Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2019.

These interim Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited combined financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form 10, as amended and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 7, 2019 (the “Form 10”).

Prior to the Distribution, the Company’s Unaudited Combined Financial Statements were prepared on a standalone basis, derived from the unaudited consolidated financial statements and accounting records of 21CF. The Company’s financial statements as of June 30, 2018 and for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2018 are presented on a combined basis as the Company was not a separate consolidated group prior to the Distribution. These financial statements reflect the combined historical results of operations, financial position and cash flows of 21CF’s domestic news, national sports and broadcast businesses and certain other assets and liabilities associated with such businesses . The Company became a separate consolidated group as a result of the Distribution, and the Company’s financial statements as of March 31, 2019 and for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019 are presented on a consolidated basis.

The Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Statements of Operations include allocations for certain support functions that were provided on a centralized basis within 21CF prior to the Distribution and not recorded at the business unit level, such as certain expenses related to finance, legal, insurance, information technology, compliance and human resources management activities, among others. 21CF did not routinely allocate these costs to any of its business units. These expenses were allocated to FOX on the basis of direct usage when identifiable, with the remainder allocated on a pro rata basis of combined revenues, headcount or other relevant measures. Management believes the assumptions underlying the Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements, including the assumptions regarding allocating general corporate expenses from 21CF, are reasonable. Nevertheless, the Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements may not include all of the actual expenses that would have been incurred by FOX and may not reflect FOX’s consolidated and combined results of operations, financial position and cash flows had it been a standalone company during the entirety of the periods presented. Actual costs that would have been incurred if FOX had been a standalone company would depend on multiple factors, including organizational structure and strategic decisions made in various areas, including information technology and infrastructure.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Comp any’s C onsolidated B alance S heet as of March 31, 2019 consists of the Company’s consolidated balances subsequent to the Distribution. The Company’s C ombined B alance S heet as of June 30, 2018 consists of the combined balances of 21CF’s domestic news, nation al sports and broadcast businesses and certain other assets and liabilities associated with such businesses. The assets and liabilities have been reflected on a historical cost basis, as prior to the Distribution all of the assets and liabilities presented were wholly owned by 21CF and were transferred to the combined FOX group at a carry-over basis.

For purposes of the Company’s financial statements for the periods prior to the Distribution, the income tax (expense) benefit in the Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Statements of Operations was calculated as if FOX filed a separate tax return and was operating as a standalone business. Therefore, cash tax payments and items of current and deferred taxes may not be reflective of FOX’s actual tax balances prior to or subsequent to the Distribution. Prior to the Distribution, the Company’s operating results were included in 21CF’s consolidated U.S. federal and state income tax returns. Pursuant to rules promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service and various state taxing authorities, the Company will file its initial U.S. income tax returns for the period March 20, 2019 through June 30, 2019.

The income tax accounts reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2019 include income taxes payable and deferred taxes attributed to the Company at the time of the Separation (See Note 8 – Related Party Transactions and Twenty-First Century Fox, Inc. Investment under the heading “Corporate Allocations and Twenty-First Century Fox, Inc. Investment”). The calculation of the Company’s income taxes involves considerable judgment and the use of both estimates and allocations.

Pursuant to the 21CF Disney Merger Agreement, immediately prior to the Distribution, the Company paid to 21CF a dividend in the amount of $8.5 billion (the “Dividend”). The final determination of the taxes in respect of the Separation and the Distribution for which the Company is responsible pursuant to the 21CF Disney Merger Agreement and a prepayment of the estimated taxes in respect of divestitures (collectively, the “Transaction Tax”) was $6.5 billion. Following the Distribution, on March 20, 2019 the Company received a cash payment in the amount of $2.0 billion (the “Cash Payment”) from Disney, which had the net effect of reducing the Dividend the Company paid to 21CF. The Transaction Tax included a prepayment of the Company’s share of the estimated tax liabilities resulting from the anticipated divestitures by Disney of certain assets, principally the FOX Sports Regional Sports Networks. This prepayment was in the amount of approximately $700 million and is subject to adjustment in the future, when the actual amounts of the tax liabilities are reported on the federal income tax returns of 21CF or Disney.

As a result of the Separation and the Distribution, FOX obtained a tax basis in its assets equal to their respective fair market values. This will result in estimated annual tax deductions of approximately $1.5 billion, principally over the next 15 years related to the amortization of the additional tax basis. This amortization is estimated to reduce the Company’s annual cash tax liability by $360 million per year at the current combined federal and state applicable tax rate of 24%. Such estimates are subject to revisions, which could be material, based upon, among other things, final appraisals.

The Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements include, for periods prior to the Distribution, certain assets and liabilities that were historically held at 21CF’s corporate level but are specifically identifiable or otherwise attributable to the Company. All significant intracompany transactions and accounts within the Company’s consolidated and combined businesses have been eliminated.

Intercompany transactions with 21CF or its affiliates and the Company are reflected in the historical Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements for periods prior to the Distribution. All significant intercompany balances between 21CF and the Company, for periods prior to the Distribution, have been included within the Twenty-First Century Fox, Inc. investment in these Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements.

Any change in the Company’s ownership interest in a consolidated or combined subsidiary, where a controlling financial interest is retained, is accounted for as a capital transaction. When the Company ceases to have a controlling interest in a consolidated or combined subsidiary, the Company will recognize a gain or loss in net income upon deconsolidation.

FOX CORPORATION

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The preparation of the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts that are reported in the Una udited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements and accompanying disclosures. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake in the future, actual results may differ from those estimates.

The Company’s fiscal year ends on June 30 of each year. Certain fiscal 2018 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the fiscal 2019 presentation.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share for the Class A Common Stock and Class B common stock is calculated by dividing Net income attributable to Fox Corporation stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, including vested Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”), and Class B Common Stock. Diluted earnings per share for the Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock is calculated similarly, except that the calculation for the Class A Common Stock includes the dilutive effect of the assumed issuance of the shares issuable under the Company’s equity-based compensation plan.

On March 19, 2019, the date of the Distribution, 621 million shares of the Company’s Common Stock were distributed to 21CF stockholders (other than holders that were subsidiaries of 21CF) . These 621 million shares have been utilized for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for all periods presented that ended prior to the date of the Distribution as no shares of common stock or equity-based awards of the Company were outstanding prior to that date (See Note 7 – Equity-Based Compensation).

Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Guidance and U.S. Tax Reform

Adopted

In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments––Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“ASU 2016-01”). The amendments in ASU 2016-01 address certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments. The Company adopted this guidance as of July 1, 2018 on a modified retrospective basis and recorded a cumulative effect adjustment to reclassify unrealized holding gains on securities within Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income to Twenty-First Century Fox, Inc. investment (See Note 6 – Stockholders’ Equity). In addition, the Company recorded changes in the fair value of equity investments with readily determinable fair values in Net income rather than in Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income (See Note 12 – Additional Financial Information under the heading “Other, net”). Cost method investments that do not have readily determinable fair values will be recognized prospectively at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. The adjustments related to the observable price changes will also be recognized in net income.

On July 1, 2018, the Company early adopted ASU 2018-02, “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2018-02”) on a prospective basis using the security-by-security approach. The objective of ASU 2018-02 is to eliminate the stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Act (as defined below) and to improve the usefulness of information reported to financial statement users. The adoption of ASU 2018-02 resulted in a reclassification from Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income to Twenty-First Century Fox, Inc. investment related to the income tax effects on the change in the federal statutory rate (See Note 6 – Stockholders’ Equity).

Issued

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“Topic 842”), as amended. Topic 842 requires recognition of lease liabilities and right-of-use assets on the balance sheet and disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 will be effective for the Company for annual and interim reporting periods beginning July 1, 2019. The Company expects to apply Topic 842 on a modified retrospective basis with the cumulative effect, if any, of initially applying the new guidance recognized at the date of adoption as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. The Company is currently evaluating the impact Topic 842 will have on its consolidated financial statements, including determining which practical expedients to apply. Since the Company has a significant amount of minimum lease commitments (See Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies in the Form 10), the Company expects that the impact of recognizing operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets will be significant to the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company is in process of gathering the necessary lease data and implementing accounting lease software for all leases as well as assessing necessary changes to the Company’s processes and controls to support the recognition and disclosure requirements in accordance with the new standard.

In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-02, “Entertainment—Films—Other Assets—Film Costs (Subtopic 926-20) and Entertainment—Broadcasters—Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Subtopic 920-350): Improvements to Accounting for Costs of Films and License Agreements for Program Materials” (“ASU 2019-02”). The amendments in ASU 2019-02 align the accounting for production costs of episodic television series with the accounting for production costs of films. In addition, ASU 2019-02 modifies certain aspects of the capitalization, impairment, presentation and disclosure requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 926-20 and the impairment, presentation and disclosure requirements in ASC 920-350. ASU 2019-02 will be effective for the Company for annual and interim reporting periods beginning July 1, 2020 on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2019-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

U.S. Tax Reform

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). The Tax Act significantly revises the future ongoing U.S. corporate income tax by, among other things, lowering U.S. corporate income tax rates and implementing a territorial tax system. Effective July 1, 2018, the Company’s corporate income tax rate is 21%.

The SEC issued guidance that allowed for a measurement period of up to one year after the enactment date of the Tax Act to finalize the recording of the related tax impacts. In December 2018, the Company finalized its analysis and has not materially modified the provisional amounts previously recorded in the combined financial statements (See Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Form 10 under the heading “U.S. Tax Reform”).

NOTE 2. ACQUISITIONS, DISPOSALS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS

Fiscal 2019

In May 2019 , the Company and The Stars Group Inc. (“The Stars Group”) announced plans to launch FOX Bet, a national media and sports wagering partnership in the United States. FOX Sports and The Stars Group have entered into a long-term commercial agreement through which FOX Sports will provide The Stars Group with an exclusive license to use certain FOX Sports trademarks. In addition, the Company invested $236 million to acquire a 4.99% equity interest in The Stars Group.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company invested, in the aggregate, approximately $100 million in cash for a minority equity interest in Caffeine, Inc. (“Caffeine”), a social broadcasting platform for gaming, entertainment and other creative content, and Caffeine Studio, LLC (“Caffeine Studios”), a newly formed venture that is jointly owned by the Company and Caffeine. The Company accounts for the investments in Caffeine in accordance with ASU 2016-01 and Caffeine Studios as an equity method investment.

Fiscal 201 8

In March 2017, the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) concluded a voluntary auction to reclaim television broadcast station spectrum. The Company had three stations’ bids of $354 million to relinquish spectrum accepted by the FCC as part of the auction and received the proceeds in July 2017. As a result, spectrum previously utilized by its television stations in Washington, DC, Charlotte, NC and Chicago, IL designated market areas, in which the Company operates duopolies, was relinquished to the FCC. The Company recorded a pre-tax gain of $114 million of which $102 million was recorded in fiscal 2018 and the remaining balance was recorded in Other, net in the Unaudited Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 for the spectrum relinquished to the FCC in July 2018. These television stations will continue broadcasting using the spectrum of the existing FOX Network owned and operated station in that market.

The Company evaluates the recoverability of the unamortized costs associated with the Company’s programming rights using total estimated advertising and other revenues attributable to the program material and considering the Company’s expectations of the usefulness of the program rights. As a result of the evaluation, the Company recognized a write-down of approximately $55 million related to entertainment and syndicated programming rights at the Television segment, which was recorded in Operating expenses in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019.

NOTE 4. FAIR VALUE

In accordance with ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” fair value measurements are required to be disclosed using a three-tiered fair value hierarchy which distinguishes market participant assumptions into the following categories: (i) inputs that are quoted prices in active markets (“Level 1”); (ii) inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities (“Level 2”); and (iii) inputs that require the entity to use its own assumptions about market participant assumptions (“Level 3”).

The following tables present information about financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value on a recurring basis. As of March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018, there were no assets or liabilities in the Level 2 category.

10

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests

The Company accounts for redeemable noncontrolling interests in accordance with ASC 480-10-S99-3A, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480-10-S99-3A”), because their exercise is outside the control of the Company. The redeemable noncontrolling interests recorded at fair value are put rights held by the minority shareholder in one of the Company’s majority-owned sports networks .

The changes in redeemable noncontrolling interests classified as Level 3 measurements were as follows:

As of March 31, 2019, the redeemable noncontrolling interests are not exercisable. A portion of the minority shareholder’s put right will become exercisable in July 2019.

11

Fair value is generally determined by reference to market values resulting from trading on a national securities exchange or in an over-the-counter market (a Level 1 measurement).

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Cash and cash equivalents are maintained with several financial institutions. The Company has deposits held with banks that exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand and are maintained with financial institutions of reputable credit and, therefore, bear minimal credit risk.

Generally, the Company does not require collateral to secure receivables. As of March 31, 2019, the Company had one customer that accounted for approximately 13% of the Company’s receivables. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had two customers that accounted for approximately 21% of the Company’s receivables.

The Notes were issued under an Indenture, dated as of January 25, 2019, by and between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee (the “2019 Indenture”). The Notes are direct unsecured obligations of the Company and rank pari passu with all other senior indebtedness of the Company, including the indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Agreement described below. Redemption may occur, at the option of the holders, at 101% of the principal amount plus an accrued interest amount in certain circumstances where a change of control is deemed to have occurred. The Notes are subject to certain covenants, which, among other things, limit the Company’s ability and the ability of the Company’s subsidiaries, to create liens and engage in a merger, sale or consolidation transaction. The 2019 Indenture does not contain any financial maintenance covenants.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Revolving Credit Agreement

On March 15, 2019, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”) among the Company as Borrower, the initial lenders named therein, the initial issuing banks named therein, Citibank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and Goldman Sachs Bank USA, as Co-Syndication Agents, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A., as Co-Documentation Agents and the other parties party thereto. The Revolving Credit Agreement provides for a $1.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility with a sub-limit of $150 million available for the issuance of letters of credit and a maturity date of March 2024. Under the Revolving Credit Agreement, the Company may request an increase in the amount of the credit facility commitments up to a maximum facility amount of $1.5 billion and the Company may request that the maturity date be extended for up to two additional one-year periods. The material terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement include the requirement that the Company maintain specific leverage ratios and limitations on indebtedness. The interest rates and fees under the Revolving Credit Agreement are based on the Company’s long-term senior unsecured non-credit enhanced debt ratings. Given the current credit ratings, the interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement would be London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 1.1% and the facility fee is 0.15%. As of March 31, 2019, there were no borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement.

Bridge Credit Agreement

In addition, as previously disclosed, 21st Century Fox America, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of 21CF, entered into a commitment letter on behalf of FOX with the financial institutions party thereto to provide FOX with financing in connection with the Dividend. Upon the issuance of the Notes, the commitment letter was reduced to $1.7 billion. In anticipation of the payment of the Dividend, the Company entered into a $1.7 billion 364-Day Bridge Term Loan Agreement (the “Bridge Credit Agreement”) on March 15, 2019 with the initial lenders named therein, Goldman Sachs Bank USA, as Administrative Agent, Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner, and Citibank, N.A. and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. , as Co-Syndication Agents. The Company did not request any borrowings under the Bridge Credit Agreement and, as permitted under the terms of the agreement, terminated the agreement on March 20, 2019. In connection with such termination all accrued and unpaid fees thereunder were paid in full and all commitments thereunder were terminated.

NOTE 6. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Common Stock and Preferred Stock

The Company has two classes of common stock that are authorized and outstanding: Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. As a general matter, holders of Class B Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters on which stockholders have the right to vote, including director elections. Holders of Class A Common Stock are entitled to vote only in the limited circumstances set forth in the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”).   

In the event of a liquidation or dissolution or winding up of the Company, after distribution in full of the preferential and/or other amounts to be distributed to the holders of shares of any outstanding series of preferred stock or series common stock, holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, to the extent fixed by the Board of Directors with respect thereto, are entitled to receive all of the remaining assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders, ratably in proportion to the number of shares held by Class A Common Stock holders and Class B Common Stock holders, respectively. In the event of any merger or consolidation with or into another entity, the holders of Class A Common Stock and the holders of Class B Common Stock generally are entitled to receive substantially identical per share consideration.

Under the Certificate of Incorporation, the Board of Directors is authorized to issue shares of preferred stock or common stock at any time, without stockholder approval, and to determine all the terms of those shares, including the following:

(i) the voting rights, if any, except that the issuance of preferred stock or series common stock which entitles holders thereof to more than one vote per share requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the combined voting power of the then outstanding shares of the Company’s capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors;

13

FOX CORPORATION

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(ii) the dividend rate and preferences, if any, which that preferred stock or common stock will have compared to any other class; and

(iii) the redemption and liquidation rights and preferences, if any, which that preferred stock or common stock will have compared to any other class.

Any decision by the Board of Directors to issue preferred stock or common stock must, however, be taken in accordance with the Board of Directors’ fiduciary duty to act in the best interests of the Company’s stockholders. The Company is authorized to issue 35,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share and 35,000,000 shares of series common stock, par value $0.01 per share. The Board of Directors has the authority, without any further vote or action by the stockholders, to issue preferred stock and series common stock in one or more series and to fix the number of shares, designations, relative rights (including voting rights), preferences, qualifications and limitations of such series to the full extent permitted by Delaware law.

Temporary Stockholder Rights Plan

In connection with the Distribution, the Board of Directors approved the adoption of a Temporary Stockholder Rights Agreement (the “Rights Agreement”), effective March 19, 2019. The Rights Agreement will expire following the next annual meeting of stockholders of the Company, unless the rights are redeemed earlier by the Company or the Rights Agreement is approved by the Company’s stockholders. In adopting the Rights Agreement, the Board of Directors considered that there may be significant volume of trading in the Company’s shares around the time of the Distribution. The Rights Agreement is intended to protect the stockholders of the Company during the post-Distribution period from actions that the Board of Directors determines are not in the best interest of the Company’s stockholders. The Rights Agreement is not intended to interfere with any merger, tender or exchange offer, share acquisition or other business combination transaction approved in advance by the Board of Directors, and the Rights Agreement does not prevent the Board of Directors from considering any offer that it considers to be in the best interest of the Company’s stockholders.

Pursuant to the Rights Agreement, the Company declared a dividend distribution of one right (a “Class A Right”) for each outstanding share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and one right (a “Class B Right” and, together with the Class A Rights, the “Rights”) for each outstanding share of the Company’s Class B Common Stock, in each case as of the close of business on April 2, 2019. One Class A Right will also be issued together with each share of Class A Common Stock issued by the Company after April 2, 2019 and prior to the Distribution Date (as defined in the Rights Agreement), and in certain circumstances, after the Distribution Date. One Class B Right will also be issued together with each share of Class B Common Stock issued by the Company after April 2, 2019 and prior to the Distribution Date and in certain circumstances, after the Distribution Date. Initially, these Rights are not exercisable and trade with the Company’s Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock.

The Rights will become exercisable only if a person or group obtains beneficial ownership (as defined in the Rights Agreement) of 15% or more of the Class B Common Stock outstanding, or 15% or more of the Common Stock outstanding. In each such case, each Class A Right and each Class B Right will entitle its holder (except the acquiring person or group) to purchase, at the exercise price of $160 (subject to adjustments provided in the Rights Agreement), a number of authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, respectively, having a then current market value of two times the exercise price of the Right.

The Rights are not exercisable because of any current stockholder’s beneficial ownership of 15% or more of either Class A or Class B Common Stock, unless such stockholder acquires beneficial ownership of additional shares (subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Rights Agreement).

Dividends

Subsequent to March 31, 2019, the Company declared a semi-annual dividend of $0.23 per share on both the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock. The dividend declared is payable on June 3, 2019 with a record date for determining dividend entitlements of May 20, 2019.

NOTE 7. EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION

Prior to the Distribution, the Company’s employees participated in 21CF’s equity plans. 21CF had plans authorized to grant equity awards of 21CF stock to the Company’s employees. The equity-based compensation expense recorded by the Company, in the periods presented, includes the expense associated with the employees historically attributable to the Company’s operations, as well as the expense associated with the allocation of equity-based compensation expense for corporate employees.

2019 Shareholder Alignment Plan

In connection with the Distribution, the Company adopted the Fox Corporation 2019 Shareholder Alignment Plan (the “SAP”), under which equity-based compensation, including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted and unrestricted stock, RSUs and other types of FOX equity awards may be granted. The Company’s officers, directors and employees are eligible to participate in the SAP. The maximum number of shares of Class A Common Stock that may be issued under the SAP is 65 million shares. As of March 31, 2019, the remaining number of shares of Class A Common Stock available for issuance under the SAP was approximately 59.5 million.

FOX CORPORATION

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In connection with the Distribution, 21CF performance stock units (“PSUs”) scheduled to vest in 2019 and 50% of 21CF retention RSUs were accelerated and paid out in shares of 21CF class A common stock in March 2019 . 21CF RSUs and PSUs scheduled to vest after 2019 were converted into new equity awards of the Company, using a formula designed to preserve the intrinsic value of the awards immediately prior to the Distribution. Converted awards have the same terms and features as the original 21CF awards, except for the PS Us, which w ere converted into RSUs that are subject only to time-based vesting conditions and are no longer subject to achievement of applicable performance goals. In addition, the remaining 50% of the 21CF retention RSUs w ere converted into new FOX RSUs a nd Disney RSUs on the same pro rata basis accorded to shareholders of 21CF common stock in the merger s contemplated by the 21CF Disney Merger Agreement . All of the converted FOX RSUs were granted under the SAP and the approximately 5.5 million shares of Cl ass A Common Stock that may be issued under the converted FOX RSUs do not count against the maximum number of shares that may be issued under the SAP described above .

Awards granted under the SAP (other than a stock option or stock appreciation right) entitle the holder to receive Dividend Equivalents (as defined in the SAP) for each regular cash dividend on the common stock underlying the award paid by the Company during the award period. Dividend equivalents granted with respect to equity awards will be accrued during the applicable vesting period and such dividend equivalents will vest and be paid only if and when the underlying award vests.

Restricted Stock Units

RSUs are awards that represent the potential to receive shares of Class A Common Stock at the end of the applicable vesting period, subject to the terms and conditions of the SAP, the applicable award documents and such other terms and conditions as the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of FOX (the “Compensation Committee”) may establish. RSUs awarded under the SAP are fair valued based upon the fair market value of Class A Common Stock on the grant date. Any person who holds RSUs shall have no ownership interest in the shares of Class A Common Stock to which such RSUs relate until and unless shares of Class A Common Stock are delivered to the holder.

In March 2019, in connection with the Distribution, the Compensation Committee granted approximately 2.4 million RSUs under the SAP, which will primarily vest in two tranches. Approximately 50% of the RSUs will vest on June 15, 2020 and the remaining RSUs will vest on June 15, 2021, in each case, subject to a service requirement through the vesting dates.

Stock Options

Stock options are awards that entitle the holder to purchase a specified number of shares of Class A Common Stock at a specified price for a specified period of time and become exercisable over time, subject to the terms and conditions of the SAP, the applicable award documents and such other terms and conditions as the Compensation Committee may establish. Stock Options granted under the SAP were fair valued using a Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the following assumptions: (i) expected volatility was based on historical volatility of 21CF and the Company’s peer group over the expected term of the stock options; (ii) expected term of stock options granted was determined by analyzing historical data of the Company’s peer group and represented the period of time that stock options granted were expected to be outstanding; (iii) risk-free interest rate was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the award for time periods approximately equal to the expected term of the award; and (iv) expected dividend yield.

In March 2019, in connection with the Distribution, the Compensation Committee granted approximately 3.1 million stock options with an exercise price of $40.26 and grant-date fair value of $8.67 under the SAP. The stock options will vest 50% on June 15, 2020 and 50% on June 15, 2021, in each case, subject to a service requirement through the vesting dates. The options will expire approximately seven years from the grant date.

The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions used for grants during the nine months ended March 31, 2019:

As of March 31, 2019, the Company’s total estimated compensation cost, not yet recognized, related to non-vested equity awards held by the Company’s employees for all plans presented was approximately $210 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period between two and three years. For awards granted under the SAP that have only service requirements and a graded vesting schedule, the Company recognizes this compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award.

Related Party Transactions

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into transactions with related parties, including subsidiaries and equity affiliates of 21CF (prior to the Distribution), to buy and/or sell programming and purchase and/or sell advertising.

The following table sets forth the net revenue from related parties included in the Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Statements of Operations:

Corporate Allocations and Twenty-First Century Fox, Inc. Investment

Prior to the Distribution, 21CF provided services to and funded certain expenses for the Company such as: global real estate and occupancy costs and employee benefits (“Direct Corporate Expenses”). In addition, the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements include general corporate expenses of 21CF which were not historically allocated to the Company for certain support functions that were provided on a centralized basis within 21CF and not recorded at the business unit level, such as expenses related to finance, legal, insurance, information technology, compliance and human resources management activities, among others (“General Corporate Expenses”). For purposes of these standalone Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements, the General Corporate Expenses have been allocated to the Company. The General Corporate Expenses are included in the Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Statements of Operations in Selling, general and administrative expenses and Other, net, as appropriate, and accordingly as a component of the Twenty-First Century Fox, Inc. investment in the Consolidated and Combined Balance Sheets. These expenses have been allocated to the Company on the basis of direct usage when identifiable, with the remainder allocated on a pro rata basis of combined revenues, headcount or other relevant measures of the Company. Management believes the assumptions underlying the Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements, including the assumptions regarding allocating General Corporate Expenses from 21CF are reasonable. Nevertheless, the Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements may not include all of the actual expenses that would have been incurred and may not reflect the Company’s consolidated and combined results of operations, financial position
