              <div style="text-align: left; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt;">On June 18, 2020, News Corporation (the &#8220;Company&#8221;) and Susan Panuccio, Chief Financial Officer of the Company, entered into an
                Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, effective as of July 1, 2020 (the &#8220;Amended and Restated Panuccio Agreement&#8221;). The Amended and Restated Panuccio Agreement extends Ms. Panuccio&#8217;s term of employment until June 30, 2023 and provides
                for an annual base salary of not less than $1,400,000; (ii) an annual bonus with a target of not less than $2,000,000; and (iii) an annual long-term equity incentive award with a target of not less than $2,200,000. These amounts represent
                an increase over Ms. Panuccio&#8217;s fiscal 2020 annual base salary, annual performance-based bonus target and annual performance-based equity incentive award target of approximately 7.7%, 14.3% and 25.7%, respectively, with approximately 75% of
                Ms. Panuccio&#8217;s target compensation being &#8220;at risk.&#8221;&#160; All bonus payments and equity grants are subject to the Company&#8217;s claw-back policies.</div>

              <div style="text-align: left; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt;">If Ms. Panuccio&#8217;s employment is terminated by the Company other than for cause (as defined in the Amended and Restated Panuccio
                Agreement) or due to Ms. Panuccio&#8217;s death or disability, or by Ms. Panuccio for good reason (as defined in the Amended and Restated Panuccio Agreement), the Amended and Restated Panuccio Agreement provides that Ms. Panuccio will receive (i)
                the greater of (A) her then-current base salary and target annual bonus paid in the same manner as though Ms. Panuccio continued to be employed through June 30, 2023 and (B) her then-current base salary and target annual bonus paid in the
                same manner as though she continued to be employed for the successive 24 months following the date of termination; (ii) a pro rata portion of the annual bonus she would have earned for the fiscal year of termination had no termination
                occurred (a &#8220;Pro-rated Annual Bonus&#8221;); (iii) continued vesting of equity incentive awards granted prior to the date of termination in the same manner as though she continued to be employed through the later of June 30, 2023 or one year
                following the date of termination, based on Company performance for and payable at the conclusion of the applicable performance periods; and (iv) Company-paid premiums under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as
                amended, for the executive and her eligible dependents for the successive 18 months following the date of termination. If Ms. Panuccio&#8217;s employment is terminated due to her death or disability, she or her surviving spouse or estate, as
                applicable, would be entitled to: (i) salary continuation for up to 12 months (and, in the case of disability, continuation of other benefits as well); (ii) any Pro-rated Annual Bonus; and (iii) (A) in the case of disability, treatment of
                her outstanding equity incentive awards pursuant to the terms of applicable plan documents or (B) in the case of death, continued vesting of equity incentive awards granted prior to the date of termination in the same manner as though she
                continued to be employed for a period of one year following the date of termination. Finally, if, following the completion of the term under the Amended and Restated Panuccio Agreement on June 30, 2023, Ms. Panuccio is not offered a new
                employment agreement on terms at least as favorable to her as the terms set forth in the Amended and Restated Panuccio Agreement, and Ms. Panuccio is subsequently terminated without cause, then she will be entitled to receive the payments
                and benefits summarized above with respect to a termination other than for cause (using the same base salary and target annual bonus as in effect immediately prior to the expiration of the term on June 30, 2023). Payment of any compensation
                or benefits upon termination is subject to Ms. Panuccio&#8217;s execution of the Company&#8217;s then-standard separation agreement and general release and continued compliance with their terms. The Amended and Restated Panuccio Agreement continues to
                have confidentiality, non-competition and other covenants to protect the Company.</div>

              <div style="text-align: left; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt;">In addition, the Amended and Restated Panuccio Agreement provides that if Ms. Panuccio is entitled to receive any &#8220;excess
                parachute payments&#8221; under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, in connection with a change in control, those payments will either (i) be reduced below the applicable threshold, or (ii) paid in full, whichever is
                more favorable for Ms. Panuccio on a net after-tax basis. Ms. Panuccio is not entitled to any golden parachute excise tax or other tax &#8220;gross-up&#8221; payments.</div>

Item 5.02
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements
                  of Certain Officers.
On June 18, 2020, News Corporation (the "Company") and Susan Panuccio, Chief Financial Officer of the Company, entered into an
                Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, effective as of July 1, 2020 (the "Amended and Restated Panuccio Agreement"). The Amended and Restated Panuccio Agreement extends Ms. Panuccio's term of employment until June 30, 2023 and provides
                for an annual base salary of not less than $1,400,000; (ii) an annual bonus with a target of not less than $2,000,000; and (iii) an annual long-term equity incentive award with a target of not less than $2,200,000. These amounts represent
                an increase over Ms. Panuccio's fiscal 2020 annual base salary, annual performance-based bonus target and annual performance-based equity incentive award target of approximately 7.7%, 14.3% and 25.7%, respectively, with approximately 75% of
                Ms. Panuccio's target compensation being "at risk."  All bonus payments and equity grants are subject to the Company's claw-back policies.
If Ms. Panuccio's employment is terminated by the Company other than for cause (as defined in the Amended and Restated Panuccio
                Agreement) or due to Ms. Panuccio's death or disability, or by Ms. Panuccio for good reason (as defined in the Amended and Restated Panuccio Agreement), the Amended and Restated Panuccio Agreement provides that Ms. Panuccio will receive (i)
                the greater of (A) her then-current base salary and target annual bonus paid in the same manner as though Ms. Panuccio continued to be employed through June 30, 2023 and (B) her then-current base salary and target annual bonus paid in the
                same manner as though she continued to be employed for the successive 24 months following the date of termination; (ii) a pro rata portion of the annual bonus she would have earned for the fiscal year of termination had no termination
                occurred (a "Pro-rated Annual Bonus"); (iii) continued vesting of equity incentive awards granted prior to the date of termination in the same manner as though she continued to be employed through the later of June 30, 2023 or one year
                following the date of termination, based on Company performance for and payable at the conclusion of the applicable performance periods; and (iv) Company-paid premiums under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as
                amended, for the executive and her eligible dependents for the successive 18 months following the date of termination. If Ms. Panuccio's employment is terminated due to her death or disability, she or her surviving spouse or estate, as
                applicable, would be entitled to: (i) salary continuation for up to 12 months (and, in the case of disability, continuation of other benefits as well); (ii) any Pro-rated Annual Bonus; and (iii) (A) in the case of disability, treatment of
                her outstanding equity incentive awards pursuant to the terms of applicable plan documents or (B) in the case of death, continued vesting of equity incentive awards granted prior to the date of termination in the same manner as though she
                continued to be employed for a period of one year following the date of termination. Finally, if, following the completion of the term under the Amended and Restated Panuccio Agreement on June 30, 2023, Ms. Panuccio is not offered a new
                employment agreement on terms at least as favorable to her as the terms set forth in the Amended and Restated Panuccio Agreement, and Ms. Panuccio is subsequently terminated without cause, then she will be entitled to receive the payments
                and benefits summarized above with respect to a termination other than for cause (using the same base salary and target annual bonus as in effect immediately prior to the expiration of the term on June 30, 2023). Payment of any compensation
                or benefits upon termination is subject to Ms. Panuccio's execution of the Company's then-standard separation agreement and general release and continued compliance with their terms. The Amended and Restated Panuccio Agreement continues to
                have confidentiality, non-competition and other covenants to protect the Company.
In addition, the Amended and Restated Panuccio Agreement provides that if Ms. Panuccio is entitled to receive any "excess
                parachute payments" under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, in connection with a change in control, those payments will either (i) be reduced below the applicable threshold, or (ii) paid in full, whichever is
                more favorable for Ms. Panuccio on a net after-tax basis. Ms. Panuccio is not entitled to any golden parachute excise tax or other tax "gross-up" payments.
