Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
On February 8, 2007, Virgin Media Inc., formerly known as NTL Incorporated (the “Company”), issued a press release announcing that, effective as of February 6, its corporate name had changed to Virgin Media Inc.
The change of the Company’s name was implemented by means of a short-form merger pursuant to Section 253(b) of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Upon the filing of a certificate of ownership and merger providing for the Company’s name to be changed to “Virgin Media Inc.,” a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company bearing the Company’s intended name merged with and into the Company, enabling it to change its name without stockholder approval.
Accordingly, Article I of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation has been amended to read as follows:
“ARTICLE I
NAME OF THE CORPORATION
The name of this corporation is Virgin Media Inc.”
A conforming change was also made to the Company’s by-laws to reflect the change in the Company’s name.
