VODAFONE GROUP PLC ANNOUNCES TRANSFER TO NASDAQ
Vodafone Group Plc ("Vodafone") today announces that it has submitted written notice to the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") of its intention to transfer the listing of its American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs"), each representing ten ordinary shares of Vodafone, from the NYSE to the NASDAQ Global Select Market ("NASDAQ"). Vodafone expects that it will commence trading on NASDAQ on or about 29 October 2009 and will continue to be listed under the ticker symbol "VOD". Vodafone has decided to transfer to NASDAQ to benefit from lower annual listing fees.
Vodafone intends to file a Form 25 with the US Securities and Exchange Commission to complete the delisting of its ADRs from the NYSE.
Vodafone's debt securities will remain listed on the NYSE.
