A copy of the prospectus referred to in Item 8.01 below is attached as Exhibit 99.1. Exhibit 99.1 is provided under Item 7.01 of Form 8-K and is furnished to, but not filed with, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
The prospectus has been prepared in accordance with laws, regulations, disclosure standards and practices of the United Kingdom, and in UK format and style, which differ from those applicable in the United States. Neither the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission nor any securities commission of any state of the United States has passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of the disclosure in the prospectus.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
On September 28, 2009, Virgin Media Inc. (the "Company") announced that it has published, and lodged with the United Kingdom's Financial Services Authority, its prospectus prepared in connection with the admission of the Company's common stock to the Official List of the Financial Services Authority and to trading on the main market of the London Stock Exchange by way of a secondary listing.
It is expected that the admission will become effective, and that dealings in the Company's common stock on the main market of the London Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "VMED" will commence, at 8:00 am (London time) on October 1, 2009, subject to receipt of final approval from the Financial Services Authority and the London Stock Exchange. The shares will be traded in the form of depositary interests.
The primary listing for the Company's common stock will continue to be the NASDAQ Global Select Market and the Company is not issuing any new shares of common stock in connection with its London listing.
