In such event this Trust Deed and the Notes, Certificates, Receipts, Coupons and Talons shall be read accordingly.
5	Guarantee and Indemnity
5.1	Guarantee: Each of the Guarantors (by the execution of this Trust Deed or any amendment or supplement) unconditionally, irrevocably, jointly and severally guarantees that if the relevant Issuer does not pay any sum payable by it under this Trust Deed, the Notes, the Receipts or the Coupons by the time and on the date specified for such payment (whether on the normal due date, on acceleration or otherwise), each of the Guarantors shall pay that sum to or to the order of the Trustee, in the manner provided in Clause 2.3 (or if in respect of sums due under Clause 10, in pounds sterling in London in immediately available funds) before close of business on that date in the city to which payment is so to be made.

5.2	Guarantor as Principal Debtor: As between the relevant Guarantors and the Trustee, the Noteholders and the Couponholders but without affecting the relevant Issuer’s obligations, the relevant Guarantors shall be jointly and severally liable under this Clause as if they were the sole principal debtors and not merely sureties.

5.3	Guarantor’s Obligations Continuing: Each Guarantor’s obligations under this Trust Deed are and shall remain in full force and effect by way of continuing security until no sum remains payable under this Trust Deed, the Notes, the Receipts or the Coupons.

Each Guarantor irrevocably waives all notices and demands of any kind.
5.4	Exercise of Guarantor’s Rights: So long as any sum remains payable under this Trust Deed, the Notes, the Receipts or the Coupons:
	5.4.1	any right of the relevant Guarantors, by reason of the performance of any of their obligations under this Clause, to be indemnified by the relevant Issuer or to take the benefit of or to enforce any security or other guarantee or indemnity shall be exercised and enforced by the relevant Guarantors only in such manner and on such terms as the Trustee may require or approve and
	5.4.2	any amount received or recovered by the relevant Guarantors (a) as a result of any exercise of any such right or (b) in the dissolution, amalgamation, reconstruction or reorganisation of the relevant Issuer shall be held in trust for the Trustee and immediately paid to the Trustee and the Trustee shall hold it on the trusts set out in Clause 6.1.
5.5	Suspense Accounts: Any amount received or recovered by the Trustee (otherwise than as a result of a payment by the relevant Issuer to the Trustee in accordance with Clause 2) in respect of any sum payable by the relevant Issuer under this Trust Deed, the Notes, the Receipts or the Coupons may be placed in a suspense account and kept there for so long as the Trustee thinks fit.
5.6	Avoidance of Payments: The relevant Guarantors shall on demand indemnify the Trustee, each Noteholder and each Couponholder against any cost, loss, expense or liability sustained or incurred by them as a result of them being required for any reason (including any bankruptcy, insolvency, winding-up, dissolution, or similar law of any jurisdiction) to refund all or part of any amount received or recovered by them in respect of any sum payable by the relevant Issuer under this Trust Deed, any Note or the Receipts or Coupons relating to that Note and shall in any event pay to it on demand the amount as refunded by it.
5.7	Debts of Issuers: If any moneys become payable by the relevant Guarantors under this Guarantee, the relevant Issuer shall not (except in the event of the liquidation of that Issuer) so long as any such moneys remain unpaid, pay any moneys for the time being due from the relevant Issuer to the relevant Guarantors.
5.8	Indemnity: As separate, independent and alternative stipulations, the relevant Guarantors unconditionally and irrevocably agree (1) that any sum that, although expressed to be

5.9	Guarantees by Subsidiaries: BSkyB shall procure that, as long as any Note comprising a Series issued by a relevant Issuer remains outstanding:
		(1)	to the extent that, after the first Tranche of the Notes comprising such Series, is issued, any Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor issues any guarantee of any Indebtedness for money borrowed in excess of £50,000,000; and
		(2)	for so long as any Subsidiary is or becomes a guarantor of Indebtedness pursuant to the terms of the 1996 Bonds, the 1999 Bonds, the 2005 Bonds or for moneys borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility,
	BSkyB will cause such Subsidiary to enter into a supplemental trust deed to this Trust Deed pursuant to which it shall agree irrevocably and unconditionally to guarantee on the terms mutatis mutandis of Clause 5 and on a pari passu basis with such Subsidiary’s obligations as guarantor as are referred to in sub-paragraph (2) above the due and punctual payment of all sums expressed to be payable by such Issuer under this Trust Deed, the Notes, Receipts and Coupons when and as the same shall become due and payable.
5.10	Release of Guarantors: In the event any Guarantor (other than BSkyB Finance, BSkyB, BSkyB Limited and Sky Subscribers) shall have been fully and unconditionally released from all obligations under guarantees of Indebtedness for money borrowed in excess of £50,000,000, such Guarantor shall be deemed released from all obligations under its Guarantee without any further action required on the part of the Trustee, any Noteholder or any Couponholder. Any such Guarantor not so released shall remain irrevocably and unconditionally liable for its obligations under its Guarantee. The Trustee shall make available for delivery an appropriate instrument evidencing any such release upon receipt of (i) a written request from each of the relevant Issuer and such Guarantor, and (ii) a certificate signed by two directors of each of the relevant Issuer and such Guarantor certifying as to such Guarantor’s compliance with the terms of this Trust Deed.
	The Trustee agrees to execute such documentation as the relevant Guarantor may reasonably require to effect its release as a Guarantor, provided that the Trustee is satisfied that the obligations of the relevant Issuer and the other Guarantors will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such release and the relevant Issuer and the other

The Trustee may retain such investments and accumulate the resulting income until the investments and the accumulations, together with any other funds for the time being under its control and available for such payment, amount to at least 10 per cent. of the nominal amount of the Notes then outstanding and then such investments, accumulations and funds (after deduction of, or provision for, any applicable taxes) shall be applied as specified in Clause 6.1.
6.3	Investment: Moneys held by the Trustee may be invested in its name or under its control in any investments or other assets anywhere whether or not they produce income or deposited in its name or under its control at such bank or other financial institution in such currency as the Trustee may, in its absolute discretion, think fit. If that bank or institution is the Trustee or a subsidiary, holding or associated company of the Trustee, it need only account for an amount of interest equal to the standard amount of interest payable by it on such a deposit to an independent customer. The Trustee may at any time vary or transpose any such investments or assets or convert any moneys so deposited into any other currency, and shall not be responsible for any resulting loss, whether by depreciation in value, change in exchange rates or otherwise.

7.1	Proceedings brought by the Trustee: At any time after the Notes of any Series shall have become immediately due and repayable, the Trustee may at its discretion and without further notice take such proceedings as it may think fit against the relevant Issuer to enforce repayment thereof together with premium (if any) and accrued interest and any other moneys payable pursuant to this Trust Deed and may, in order to enforce the

	7.2.2	proof therein that as regards any specified Coupon the relevant Issuer or the relevant Guarantors (as the case may be) have made default in paying any interest due in respect of such Coupon shall (unless the contrary be proved) be sufficient evidence that the relevant Issuer or the relevant Guarantors (as the case may be) have made the like default as regards all other Coupons which are then due and payable.

8.2	Trustee only to enforce: Only the Trustee may enforce the provisions of this Trust Deed.

11.2	Trustee to Assume Performance: The Trustee need not notify anyone of the execution of this Trust Deed or do anything to find out if an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default has occurred.

11.3	Resolutions of Noteholders: The Trustee shall not be responsible for having acted in good faith on a resolution purporting to have been passed at a meeting of Noteholders in respect of which minutes have been made and signed even if it is later found that there was a defect in the constitution of the meeting or the passing of the resolution or that the resolution was not valid or binding on the Noteholders or Couponholders.
11.4	Certificate Signed by Directors: If the Trustee, in the exercise of its functions, requires to be satisfied or to have information as to any fact or the expediency of any act, it may call for and accept as sufficient evidence of that fact or the expediency of that act a certificate signed by any two directors of the relevant Issuer or relevant Guarantor as to that fact or to the effect that, in their opinion, that act is expedient and the Trustee need not call for further evidence and shall not be responsible for any loss occasioned by acting on such a certificate.
11.5	Deposit of Documents: The Trustee may appoint as custodian, on any terms, any bank or entity whose business includes the safe custody of documents or any lawyer or firm of lawyers believed by it to be of good repute and may deposit this Trust Deed and any other documents with such custodian and pay all sums due in respect thereof.

		(i)	a deed is executed or undertaking given by the Substituted Obligor to the Trustee, in form and manner satisfactory to the Trustee, agreeing to be bound by this Trust Deed, the Notes, the Receipts, the Coupons and the

18

			Talons (with consequential amendments as the Trustee may deem appropriate) as if the Substituted Obligor had been named in this Trust Deed, the Notes, the Certificates, the Receipts, the Coupons and the Talons as the principal debtor in place of the relevant Issuer(s) or as the relevant guarantor in place of a relevant Guarantor, as the case may be
		(ii)	if the Substituted Obligor is subject generally to the taxing jurisdiction of a territory or any authority of or in that territory with power to tax (the “Substituted Territory”) other than the territory to the taxing jurisdiction of which (or to any such authority of or in which) the relevant Issuer is subject generally (the “Issuer’s Territory”), or to which the relevant Guarantor is subject generally (the “Guarantor’s Territory”) the Substituted Obligor shall (unless the Trustee otherwise agrees) give to the Trustee an undertaking satisfactory to the Trustee in terms corresponding to Condition 8 with the substitution for the references in that Condition to the relevant Issuer’s Territory or the relevant Guarantor’s Territory as the case may be of references to the Substituted Territory whereupon the Trust Deed, the Notes, the Certificates, the Receipts, the Coupons and the Talons shall be read accordingly

Notice of the substitution shall be given to the Noteholders within 14 days of the execution of such documents and compliance with such requirements.
	15.2.3	Completion of Substitution: On completion of the formalities set out in Clause 15.2, the Substituted Obligor shall be deemed to be named in this Trust Deed, the Notes, the Certificates, the Receipts, the Coupons and the Talons as the principal debtor in place of the relevant Issuer (or of any previous substitute) and this Trust Deed, the Notes, the Certificates, the Receipts, the Coupons and the Talons shall be deemed to be amended as necessary to give effect to the substitution.

	16.3.2	to conform with a legal requirement, restriction or condition in a jurisdiction in which a particular act is to be performed or
	16.3.3	to obtain a judgment or to enforce a judgment or any provision of this Trust Deed in any jurisdiction.
	Subject to the provisions of this Trust Deed the Trustee may confer on any person so appointed such functions as it thinks fit. The Trustee may by written notice to each Issuer, each Guarantor and that person remove that person.

17	Notes held in Clearing Systems and Couponholders
17.1	Notes Held in Clearing Systems: So long as any Global Note is, or any Notes represented by a Global Certificate are, held on behalf of a clearing system, in considering the interests of Noteholders, the Trustee may have regard to any information provided to it by such clearing system or its operator as to the identity (either individually or by category) of its accountholders or participants with entitlements to any such Global Note or the Registered Notes and may consider such interests on the basis that such accountholders or participants were the holder(s) thereof.
17.2	Couponholders: No notices need be given to Couponholders. They shall be deemed to have notice of the contents of any notice given to Noteholders.

18.3	Indemnity: If that Contractual Currency amount is less than the Contractual Currency amount expressed to be due to the recipient under this Trust Deed, the Notes, the Receipts or the Coupons, the relevant Issuer shall indemnify it against any loss sustained by it as a result. In any event, the relevant Issuer shall indemnify the recipient against the cost of making any such purchase.

1.7	references to persons representing a proportion of the Notes are to Noteholders or agents holding or representing in the aggregate at least that proportion in nominal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding.

Powers of meetings

2	A meeting shall, subject to the Conditions and without prejudice to any powers conferred on other persons by this Trust Deed, have power by Extraordinary Resolution:
2.1	to sanction any proposal by the Issuer, the Guarantors or the Trustee for any modification, abrogation, variation or compromise of, or arrangement in respect of, the rights of the Noteholders and/or the Couponholders against the Issuer or the Guarantors, whether or not those rights arise under this Trust Deed

2.9	to discharge or exonerate the Trustee from any liability in respect of any act or omission for which it may become responsible under this Trust Deed, the Notes, the Receipts, the Talons or the Coupons
	provided that the special quorum provisions in paragraph 19 shall apply to any Extraordinary Resolution (a “special quorum resolution”) for the purpose of sub- paragraph 2.2 or 2.8, any of the proposals listed in Condition 11(a) or any amendment to this proviso.
Convening a meeting
3	The Issuer, a Guarantor or the Trustee may at any time convene a meeting. If it receives a written request by Noteholders holding at least 10 per cent. in nominal amount of the Notes of any Series for the time being outstanding and is indemnified to its satisfaction against all costs and expenses, the Trustee shall convene a meeting of the Noteholders of that Series. Every meeting shall be held at a time and place approved by the Trustee.
4	At least 21 days’ notice (exclusive of the day on which the notice is given and of the day of the meeting) shall be given to the Noteholders. A copy of the notice shall be given by the party convening the meeting to the other parties. The notice shall specify the day, time and place of meeting and, unless the Trustee otherwise agrees, the nature of the resolutions to be proposed and shall explain how Noteholders may appoint proxies or representatives, obtain voting certificates and use block voting instructions and the details of the time limits applicable.
Arrangements for voting
5	If a holder of a Bearer Note wishes to obtain a voting certificate in respect of it for a meeting, he must deposit it for that purpose at least 48 hours before the time fixed for the meeting with a Paying Agent or to the order of a Paying Agent with a bank or other depositary nominated by the Paying Agent for the purpose. The Paying Agent shall then issue a voting certificate in respect of it.
6	A voting certificate shall:
6.1	be a document in the English language
6.2	be dated
6.3	specify the meeting concerned and the serial numbers of the Notes deposited and
6.4	entitle, and state that it entitles, its bearer to attend and vote at that meeting in respect of those Notes.
7	Once a Paying Agent has issued a voting certificate for a meeting in respect of a Note, it shall not release the Note until either:
7.1	the meeting has been concluded or
7.2	the voting certificate has been surrendered to the Paying Agent.
8	If a holder of a Bearer Note wishes the votes attributable to it to be included in a block voting instruction for a meeting, then, at least 48 hours before the time fixed for the meeting, (i) he must deposit the Note for that purpose with a Paying Agent or to the order

55

Back to Contents

	of a Paying Agent with a bank or other depositary nominated by the Paying Agent for the purpose and (ii) he or a duly authorised person on his behalf must direct the Paying Agent how those votes are to be cast. The Paying Agent shall issue a block voting instruction in respect of the votes attributable to all Notes so deposited.
9	A block voting instruction shall:
9.1	be a document in the English language
9.2	be dated
9.3	specify the meeting concerned
9.4	list the total number and serial numbers of the Notes deposited, distinguishing with regard to each resolution between those voting for and those voting against it
9.5	certify that such list is in accordance with Notes deposited and directions received as provided in paragraphs 8, 11 and 14 and
9.6	appoint a named person (a “proxy”) to vote at that meeting in respect of those Notes and in accordance with that list.
	A proxy need not be a Noteholder.
10	Once a Paying Agent has issued a block voting instruction for a meeting in respect of the votes attributable to any Notes:
10.1	it shall not release the Notes, except as provided in paragraph 11, until the meeting has been concluded and
10.2	the directions to which it gives effect may not be revoked or altered during the 48 hours before the time fixed for the meeting.
11	If the receipt for a Note deposited with a Paying Agent in accordance with paragraph 8 is surrendered to the Paying Agent at least 48 hours before the time fixed for the meeting, the Paying Agent shall release the Note and exclude the votes attributable to it from the block voting instruction.
12	Each block voting instruction shall be deposited at least 24 hours before the time fixed for the meeting at such place as the Trustee shall designate or approve, and in default it shall not be valid unless the chairman of the meeting decides otherwise before the meeting proceeds to business. If the Trustee requires, a notarially certified copy of each block voting instruction shall be produced by the proxy at the meeting but the Trustee need not investigate or be concerned with the validity of the proxy’s appointment.
13	A vote cast in accordance with a block voting instruction shall be valid even if it or any of the Noteholders’ instructions pursuant to which it was executed has previously been revoked or amended, unless written intimation of such revocation or amendment is received from the relevant Paying Agent by the Issuer or the Trustee at its registered office or by the chairman of the meeting in each case at least 24 hours before the time fixed for the meeting.
14	No Note may be deposited with or to the order of a Paying Agent at the same time for the purposes of both paragraph 5 and paragraph 8 for the same meeting.

56

15
15.1	A holder of a Registered Note may, by an instrument in writing in the form available from the specified office of a Transfer Agent in the English language executed by or on behalf of the holder and delivered to the Transfer Agent at least 24 hours before the time fixed for a meeting, appoint any person (a “proxy”) to act on his behalf in connection with that meeting. A proxy need not be a Noteholder.
15.2	A corporation which holds a Registered Note may by delivering to a Transfer Agent at least 24 hours before the time fixed for a meeting a certified copy of a resolution of its directors or other governing body (with, if it is not in English, a certified translation into English) authorise any person to act as its representative (a “representative”) in connection with that meeting.
Chairman
16	The chairman of a meeting shall be such person as the Trustee may nominate in writing, but if no such nomination is made or if the person nominated is not present within 15 minutes after the time fixed for the meeting the Noteholders or agents present shall choose one of their number to be chairman, failing which the Issuer may appoint a chairman. The chairman need not be a Noteholder or agent. The chairman of an adjourned meeting need not be the same person as the chairman of the original meeting.
Attendance
17	The following may attend and speak at a meeting:
17.1	Noteholders and agents
17.2	the chairman
17.3	the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee (through their respective representatives) and their respective financial and legal advisers
17.4	the Dealers and their advisers.
	No-one else may attend or speak.
Quorum and Adjournment
18	No business (except choosing a chairman) shall be transacted at a meeting unless a quorum is present at the commencement of business. If a quorum is not present within 15 minutes from the time initially fixed for the meeting, it shall, if convened on the requisition of Noteholders or if the Issuer and the Trustee agree, be dissolved. In any other case it shall be adjourned until such date, not less than 14 nor more than 42 days later, and time and place as the chairman may decide. If a quorum is not present within 15 minutes from the time fixed for a meeting so adjourned, the meeting shall be dissolved.
19	Two or more Noteholders or agents present in person shall be a quorum:
19.1	in the cases marked “No minimum proportion” in the table below, whatever the proportion of the Notes which they represent
19.2	in any other case, only if they represent the proportion of the Notes shown by the table below.

			Required proportion		Required proportion
	To pass a special quorum resolution		75 per cent		25 per cent
	To pass any other Extraordinary Resolution		A clear majority		No minimum proportion
	Any other purpose		10 per cent		No minimum proportion

20	The chairman may with the consent of (and shall if directed by) a meeting adjourn the meeting from time to time and from place to place. Only business which could have been transacted at the original meeting may be transacted at a meeting adjourned in accordance with this paragraph or paragraph 18.
21	At least 10 days’ notice of a meeting adjourned through want of a quorum shall be given in the same manner as for an original meeting and that notice shall state the quorum required at the adjourned meeting. No notice need, however, otherwise be given of an adjourned meeting.
Voting
22	Each question submitted to a meeting shall be decided by a show of hands unless a poll is (before, or on the declaration of the result of, the show of hands) demanded by the chairman, the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee or one or more persons representing two per cent. of the Notes.
23	Unless a poll is demanded a declaration by the chairman that a resolution has or has not been passed shall be conclusive evidence of the fact without proof of the number or proportion of the votes cast in favour of or against it.
24	If a poll is demanded, it shall be taken in such manner and (subject as provided below) either at once or after such adjournment as the chairman directs. The result of the poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting at which it was demanded as at the date it was taken. A demand for a poll shall not prevent the meeting continuing for the transaction of business other than the question on which it has been demanded.
25	A poll demanded on the election of a chairman or on a question of adjournment shall be taken at once.
26	On a show of hands every person who is present in person and who produces a Bearer Note, a Certificate of which he is the registered holder or a voting certificate or is a proxy or representative has one vote. On a poll every such person has one vote in respect of each integral currency unit of the Specified Currency of such Series of Notes so produced or represented by the voting certificate so produced or for which he is a proxy or representative. Without prejudice to the obligations of proxies, a person entitled to more than one vote need not use them all or cast them all in the same way.

58

Back to Contents

27	In case of equality of votes the chairman shall both on a show of hands and on a poll have a casting vote in addition to any other votes which he may have.
Effect and Publication of an Extraordinary Resolution
28	An Extraordinary Resolution shall be binding on all the Noteholders, whether or not present at the meeting, and on all the Couponholders and each of them shall be bound to give effect to it accordingly. The passing of such a resolution shall be conclusive evidence that the circumstances justify its being passed. The Issuer shall give notice of the passing of an Extraordinary Resolution to Noteholders within 14 days but failure to do so shall not invalidate the resolution.
Minutes
29	Minutes shall be made of all resolutions and proceedings at every meeting and, if purporting to be signed by the chairman of that meeting or of the next succeeding meeting, shall be conclusive evidence of the matters in them. Until the contrary is proved every meeting for which minutes have been so made and signed shall be deemed to have been duly convened and held and all resolutions passed or proceedings transacted at it to have been duly passed and transacted.
Trustee’s Power to Prescribe Regulations
30	Subject to all other provisions in this Trust Deed the Trustee may without the consent of the Noteholders prescribe such further regulations regarding the holding of meetings and attendance and voting at them as it in its sole discretion determines including (without limitation) such requirements as the Trustee thinks reasonable to satisfy itself that the persons who purport to make any requisition in accordance with this Trust Deed are entitled to do so and as to the form of voting certificates or block voting instructions so as to satisfy itself that persons who purport to attend or vote at a meeting are entitled to do so.
31	The holder of a Global Note or Global Certificate shall (unless such Global Note or Global Certificate represents only one Note) be treated as two persons for the purposes of any quorum requirements of a meeting of Noteholders.
32	The foregoing provisions of this Schedule shall have effect subject to the following provisions:
32.1	Meetings of Noteholders of separate Series will normally be held separately. However, the Trustee may from time to time determine that meetings of Noteholders of separate Series shall be held together
32.2	A resolution that in the opinion of the Trustee affects one Series alone shall be deemed to have been duly passed if passed at a separate meeting of the Noteholders of the Series concerned
32.3	A resolution that in the opinion of the Trustee affects the Noteholders of more than one Series but does not give rise to a conflict of interest between the Noteholders of the different Series concerned shall be deemed to have been duly passed if passed at a single meeting of the Noteholders of the relevant Series provided that for the purposes of determining the votes a Noteholder is entitled to cast pursuant to paragraph 26, each Noteholder shall have one vote in respect of each £1,000 nominal amount of Notes held, converted, if such Notes are not denominated in U.S. dollars, in accordance with Clause 11.13

59

Back to Contents

32.4	A resolution that in the opinion of the Trustee affects the Noteholders of more than one Series and gives or may give rise to a conflict of interest between the Noteholders of the different Series concerned shall be deemed to have been duly passed only if it shall be duly passed at separate meetings of the Noteholders of the relevant Series
32.5	To all such meetings as aforesaid all the preceding provisions of this Schedule shall mutatis mutandis apply as though references therein to Notes and to Noteholders were references to the Notes and Noteholders of the Series concerned.
