ITV plc today announces that it has given an irrevocable undertaking to sell its
9.99% shareholding in The Liverpool Football Club and Athletic Grounds Plc at a
price of £5,000 per share.
This would result in cash proceeds of £17.4 million in the event that the Offer
for the Club, announced today, becomes unconditional.
The sale represents a further example of ITV's successful disposal programme of
non-core assets which is now approaching £500 million since the merger creating
ITV plc in 2004.
Ends.
