UTV Media plc - Changes to the Board 
 
At a board meeting of the board of directors (the "Board) of UTV Media plc 
("UTV") earlier today, the Board voted to remove John B McGuckian as Chairman 
of UTV. 
 
A majority of the members of the Board consisting of Roy Bailie, Helen 
Kirkpatrick, John McCann, Scott Taunton and Norman McKeown considered that Mr 
McGuckian's close association with TVC, a major shareholder of UTV, had 
compromised his independence to such an extent that they no longer considered 
it appropriate for him to continue as Chairman. 
 
Shane Reihill, Kevin Lagan and John B McGuckian then resigned as directors of 
UTV with immediate effect. 
 
Helen Kirkpatrick, an existing independent non-executive director of the 
company has agreed to become interim Chairman and will immediately start the 
search for a new independent non-executive Chairman as well as at least 2 
independent non-executive directors in order to ensure that in the future the 
company's affairs can be conducted in accordance with the UK Corporate 
Governance Code and best practice for corporate governance.
