Virgin Media Investment Holdings Limited ("

The Facility J Accession Deed provides that the lenders under Facility J consent to the amendments to the covenants and other provisions of the Virgin Media Credit Agreement and the Finance Documents (as defined in the Virgin Media Credit Agreement) outlined in the Facility J Accession Deed (including in the schedules thereto). Once the consent of the requisite lenders is obtained under the Virgin Media Credit Agreement, such amendments may be implemented at the election of the Company.
The final maturity date for Facility J is January 31, 2026. Facility J will bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 3.50% per annum subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.00%.
The net proceeds of Facility J will be used to prepay in full Facility E under the Virgin Media Credit Agreement.

Facility AP
") to the Facility AP Borrower.
