Accordingly, the timelines in respect of effective date, GDR election

securities in any jurisdiction. The equity shares of Dish TV and Dish TV GDRs issued pursuant to the Scheme will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), or under any relevant securities
laws of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States. Such securities will be issued in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by section 3(a)(10) thereof. No public offering of such
securities will be made in the United States. Such transaction has not been and will not be approved or disapproved by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), nor will the SEC or any U.S. state securities commission pass
upon the merits or fairness of the transaction nor upon the adequacy or accuracy of the information contained in any document in connection with the Scheme. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offence in the United States.
