RESULTS OF ANNUAL GENERAL AND SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

The Company confirms that all of the resolutions proposed at the Annual General and Special Meeting of shareholders held on 17 October 2019 were approved. Proxies were validly received in respect of 378,036,798 common shares, representing approximately 76% of the outstanding common shares in the Company.

More than 99.9% of the votes cast, in person or by proxy, were in favour of the previously-announced plan of arrangement under the Canada Business Corporations Act pursuant to which an affiliate of Hasbro, Inc. will acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Entertainment One for £5.60 per Share in cash for an aggregate value of approximately £3.3 billion or US$4.0 billion.

The transaction remains subject to receipt of certain regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions including a final order of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice to approve the transaction. The transaction has received several regulatory approvals so far, including early termination of the waiting period under the Hart Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act in the U.S. and antitrust approval in Germany. The transaction is expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2019.

The results of the proxy voting on each resolution were as follows:

A vote "Withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the votes "For" and "Against" a resolution. Resolutions 1 and 16 to 19 were special resolutions. Resolutions 2 to 15 and 20 were ordinary resolutions.

The Company has continued to undertake an engagement programme with a number of significant shareholders to seek their feedback. As part of this programme, the Company contacted shareholders with a greater than 2% holding at the end of 2018 who voted at the 2018 Annual General Meeting, as well as new significant shareholders with a greater than 2% holding who were not on the share register at the time of the 2018 Annual General Meeting.

This engagement programme was led by Mark Opzoomer in his capacity as the Company's Senior Independent Director and specifically targeted shareholders' stewardship teams, providing an additional touchpoint to the Company's usual investment contacts.

The programme is now completed and the Board is considering the valuable feedback received from shareholders, together with the additional feedback provided through the voting response at the 2019 Annual General and Special Meeting.

A copy of the resolutions has been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism.
