issued by
Virgin Media Secured Finance PLC

Virgin Media Secured Finance PLC ("Virgin Media Secured Finance" or the "Issuer") offered £675,000,000 aggregate principal
amount of its 5% Senior Secured Notes due 2027 (the "Notes").
The Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.0% per annum. The Notes mature on April 15, 2027. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually
on each April 15 and October 15, beginning on October 15, 2017.
Some or all of the Notes may be redeemed at any time prior to April 15, 2022 at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the
Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to (but excluding) the date of redemption and a "make-whole" premium, as described elsewhere in
these listing particulars (the "listing particulars"). The Notes may be redeemed at any time on or after April 15, 2022 at the redemption prices set
forth elsewhere in these listing particulars. In addition, at any time prior to April 15, 2020 we may redeem up to 40% of the applicable Notes with the
net proceeds of one or more specified equity offerings at the redemption prices set forth elsewhere in these listing particulars. Prior to April 15, 2022,
during each 12-month period commencing on the Issue Date (as defined in these listing particulars), up to 10% of the principal amount of the Notes
may be redeemed at a redemption price equal to 103% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to (but excluding) the date of
redemption. In the event of a change of control or sale of certain assets, we may be required to make an offer to purchase the Notes. In the event of
certain developments affecting taxation, the Issuer may redeem all, but not less than all, of the Notes. See "Description of the Notes" for more
information.
The Notes are senior obligations of the Issuer. The Notes rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future indebtedness of the
Issuer that is not subordinated in right of payment to the Notes and are senior in right of payment to all existing and future indebtedness of the Issuer
that is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes.
The Notes are guaranteed on a senior basis by Virgin Media Inc. ("Virgin Media") and certain of its subsidiaries listed in Schedule I of
these listing particulars, including, among others, Virgin Media Finance PLC ("Virgin Media Finance"), Virgin Media Investment Holdings Limited
("VMIH"), Virgin Media Investments Limited ("VMIL") and Virgin Media Senior Investments Limited (collectively, the "Guarantors" and such
guarantees the "Guarantees") and secured by the same property and assets that secure the Existing Senior Secured Notes and the VM Credit Facility
(each as defined herein) (the "Collateral"). The Collateral consists of (i) share pledges of all of the capital stock of the Issuer and, on and after the
Asset Security Release Date referred to below, each of the Guarantors (except for Virgin Media and other than Excluded Assets (as defined herein))
(the "Stock Collateral") and (ii) a pledge of rights of the relevant creditors in relation to certain Subordinated Shareholder Loans (as defined herein)
(the "Receivables Collateral"). In addition, the Collateral also consists of, initially, liens on substantially all of the assets of VMIH, the Issuer and
each of the Guarantors (except for Virgin Media and other than Excluded Assets) (collectively, the "Asset Collateral"), provided that the Asset
Collateral is expected to be released at such time as all other liens on the Asset Collateral securing other indebtedness of VMIH and any Restricted
Subsidiary (as defined herein) are simultaneously released in accordance with the terms of such indebtedness (such date of release, the "Asset
Security Release Date").
The Notes are in registered form in the denomination of £100,000 and integral multiples of £1,000 in excess thereof. The Notes were
represented on issue by one or more global notes, which were delivered through Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear System
("Euroclear"), Clearstream Banking, société anonyme ("Clearstream") on February 1, 2017 (the "Issue Date").
See "Risk Factors" beginning on page 17 for a discussion of certain risks that you should consider in connection with an
investment in any of the Notes.
Neither the Notes nor the Guarantees of the Notes have been, or will be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act, or the securities
laws of any other jurisdiction. The Issuer offered the Notes only to qualified institutional buyers ("QIBs") in accordance with Rule 144A
under the U.S. Securities Act and to non-U.S. persons outside the United States in compliance with Regulation S under the U.S. Securities
Act. For a description of certain restrictions on the transfer of the Notes, see "Plan of Distribution" and "Transfer Restrictions."

represent anything to you other than the information contained in these listing particulars. You must not
rely on unauthorized information or representations.
These listing particulars do not offer to sell or solicit offers to buy any of the securities in any
jurisdiction where it is unlawful, where the person making the offer is not qualified to do so, or to any
person who cannot legally be offered the securities.
The information in these listing particulars is current only as of the date on the cover page, and
may change after that date. For any time after the cover date of these listing particulars, we do not
represent that our affairs are the same as described or that the information in these listing particulars is
correct, nor do we imply those things by delivering these listing particulars or selling securities to you.
The Issuer and the Initial Purchasers offered to sell the Notes only in places where offers and sales are
permitted. The Issuer offered the Notes in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of the U.S.
Securities Act. These exemptions apply to offers and sales of securities that do not involve a public offering.
The Notes have not been registered with, recommended by or approved by the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC") or any other securities commission or regulatory authority, nor has the SEC or any
such securities commission or authority passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of these listing particulars. Any
representation to the contrary is a criminal offense in the United States.
These listing particulars are being provided for informational use solely in connection with
consideration of a purchase of the Notes (i) to U.S. investors that we reasonably believe to be qualified
institutional buyers as defined in Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act, and (ii) to certain persons in offshore

(d) ("high net worth companies, unincorporated associations, etc.") of the Financial Promotion Order, (iii) are
outside the United Kingdom, or (iv) are persons to whom an invitation or inducement to engage in investment
activity (within the meaning of section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 ("FSMA")) in
connection with the issue or sale of any Notes may otherwise lawfully be communicated or caused to be
communicated (all such persons together being referred to as "relevant persons"). These listing particulars are
directed only at relevant persons and must not be acted on or relied on by persons who are not relevant persons.
Any investment or investment activity to which these listing particulars relates is available only to relevant
persons and will be engaged in only with relevant persons.
These listing particulars have been prepared on the basis that all offers of the Notes were made
pursuant to an exemption under Article 3 of Directive 2003/71/EC (the "Prospectus Directive"), as
implemented in member states of the European Economic Area (the "EEA"), from the requirement to produce a
prospectus for offers of the Notes. Accordingly, any person making or intending to make any offer within the
EEA of the Notes should only do so in circumstances in which no obligation arises for the Issuer or any of the
Initial Purchasers to produce a prospectus for such offer. Neither the Issuer nor the Initial Purchasers have
authorized, nor do they authorize, the making of any offer of the Notes through any financial intermediary, other
than offers made by the Initial Purchasers which constitute the final placement of the Notes contemplated in
these listing particulars.
The Notes are subject to restrictions on resale and transfer as described under "Plan of Distribution"
and "Transfer Restrictions." By purchasing any Notes, you will be deemed to have made certain
acknowledgments, representations and agreements as described in those sections of these listing particulars. You

aspects of a purchase of the Notes. You are responsible for making your own examination of us and your own
assessment of the merits and risks of investing in the Notes. We are not, and the Initial Purchasers are not,
making any representations to you regarding the legality of an investment in the Notes by you.

specified offices of the Luxembourg paying agent. All summaries of the documents contained herein are
qualified in their entirety by this reference. You agree to the foregoing by accepting these listing particulars.
The Issuer accepts responsibility for the information contained in these listing particulars and has made
all reasonable inquiries and confirmed to the best of its knowledge, information and belief that the information
contained in these listing particulars with regard to the Issuer, each of their respective subsidiaries and affiliates,
and the Notes is true and accurate in all material respects, that the opinions and intentions expressed in these

it is unlawful to make such an offer or invitation. You must comply with all laws that apply to you in any place
in which you buy, offer or sell any Notes or possess these listing particulars. You must also obtain any consents

including the date on which the Prospectus Directive is implemented in that Relevant Member State (the
"Relevant Implementation Date"), it has not made and will not make an offer of Notes which are the subject

For the purposes of this provision, the expression an "offer of notes to the public" in relation to any

consequently, these listing particulars, any other offering circular, prospectus, form of application,
advertisement or other material may only be distributed to (i) Luxembourg qualified investors as defined in the
Prospectus Act and (ii) no more than 149 prospective investors, which are not qualified investors.
Austria These listing particulars have not been or will not be approved and/or published pursuant to the
Austrian Capital Markets Act (Kapitalmarktgesetz) as amended. Neither these listing particulars nor any other
document connected therewith constitutes a prospectus according to the Austrian Capital Markets Act and
neither these listing particulars nor any other document connected therewith may be distributed, passed on or
disclosed to any other person in Austria. No steps may be taken that would constitute a public offering of the

within the meaning of Article L. 411-1 of the Code Monétaire et Financier and Title I of Book II of the

relating to portfolio management for the account of third parties (personnes fournissant le service
d'investissement de gestion de portefeuille pour le compte de tiers) and/or to qualified investors (investisseurs
qualifiés) and/or to a closed circle of investors (cercle restreint d'investisseurs) acting for their own accounts, as
defined in and in accordance with Articles L. 411-2 and D. 411-1 of the Code Monétaire et Financier. Neither
these listing particulars nor any other offering material may be distributed to the public in France.
Spain This offering has not been registered with the Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores and
therefore the Notes may not be offered, sold or distributed in Spain by any means, except in circumstances
which do not qualify as a public offer of securities in Spain in accordance with Article 30 bis of the Securities
Market Act ("Ley 24/1988, de 28 de julio del Mercado de Valores") as amended and restated, or pursuant to an
exemption from registration in accordance with article 41 of the Royal Decree 1310/2005 ("Real Decreto
