    STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT

     

    This Stockholders Agreement, dated as of September 21, 2021 (this “Agreement”), is by and
      between News Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the Murdoch Family Trust, a trust governed by the laws of Nevada and of which Cruden Financial Services LLC is the sole
      trustee (the “Trust”).  Each of the Company and the Trust is referred to individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.”

     

    WHEREAS, the Trust Beneficially Owns shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class B Common Stock”); and

     

    WHEREAS, the Parties desire to set forth certain agreements herein.

     

    NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Parties hereby
      agree as follows:

     

    ARTICLE I

     

    OWNERSHIP AND ACQUISITION OF COVERED VOTING SECURITIES

     

    Section 1.01.      Murdoch Family Interests’ Ownership of Covered Voting Securities.

     

    (a)        The Trust agrees that it
        and its Subsidiaries, if any, shall not, during the term of this Agreement, directly or indirectly, alone or in concert with others, own, acquire, offer to acquire or agree or enter into any understanding or arrangement to acquire, whether by
        purchase, tender or exchange offer, merger, through the acquisition of control of another Person, by joining a partnership, syndicate or other group (including any group of Persons that would be treated as a single “person” under Section 13(d) of
        the Exchange Act), through a voting agreement, proxy, swap or hedging or other derivative transaction or otherwise, any Covered Voting Securities or any rights (including voting rights) decoupled from the underlying Covered Voting Securities that,
        to the Trust’s Knowledge, would result in, or following which, (a) the Murdoch Family Interests and (b) any other Person(s) (i) acting in concert or having any agreement, arrangement or understanding with the Trust or (ii) that is a member of any
        partnership, syndicate or other group (including any group of Persons that would be treated as a single “person” under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) with the Trust, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii), in respect of Covered Voting
        Securities (any of the Persons described in this clause (b), a “Group Member”), collectively having Beneficial Ownership of Covered Voting Securities in the aggregate representing more
        than 44.0% of the voting power of the Company Full Voting Shares outstanding at such time (the “Ownership Threshold”), or that, to the Trust’s Knowledge, would result in an increase in the
        Trust’s Beneficial Ownership of Class B Common Stock in excess of the Annual Threshold in any twelve (12)-month period.

     

    (b)        The foregoing
        notwithstanding, the Trust may request, on a confidential basis, that the Company approve in advance an action that would otherwise not be permitted pursuant to Section 1.01(a).  Any such
        approval may be provided on behalf of the Company by, and only by, a majority vote of the Independent Directors or a majority vote of the members of a Company Independent Committee (such vote, in either case, “Independent Approval”), and such approval may be granted or denied in such Independent Directors’ or Company Independent Committee’s sole discretion.  No Independent Approval shall be required pursuant to this Agreement to
        effect any transaction in respect of which the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock are entitled to vote pursuant to Article IV, Section 4(a)(i)(1)(C) of the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation and as to which the requisite
        stockholder approval is obtained.

    Section 1.02.      Company Acquisition of Covered Voting Securities.  The Company agrees that it shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, acquire or agree to
        acquire by share repurchase, tender or exchange offer or other similar action, Covered Voting Securities if, to the Company’s Knowledge, such acquisition or agreement would:

     

    (a)        result in the Murdoch
          Family Interests and Group Members collectively having Beneficial Ownership of Covered Voting Securities in the aggregate representing more than the Ownership Threshold; or

     

    (b)        when combined with all other acquisitions of Covered Voting Securities by the Company and the Trust during the twelve (12)-month period immediately prior to the applicable acquisition or agreement, result in the percentage of outstanding
        shares of Class B Common Stock Beneficially Owned in the aggregate by the Trust increasing by more than 1.75% (calculated in a manner consistent with the rules and regulations of the Commission, the “Annual



            Threshold”) in such twelve (12)-month period.

     

    Section 1.03.      Cooperation.

     

    (a)        To the extent such
          information is not publicly disclosed, the Company shall promptly inform the Trust, on a confidential basis, regarding any acquisitions by the Company or its Subsidiaries of Class B Common Stock.

     

    (b)        To the extent such
          information is not publicly disclosed, the Trust shall promptly inform the Company, on a confidential basis, regarding any acquisitions or dispositions of Beneficial Ownership of Covered Voting Securities by the Trust or, to the Trust’s
          Knowledge, any Group Member.

     

    (c)        In connection with the record date for each meeting of stockholders of the Company during the period that this Agreement is in effect, the Trust will seek to confirm with each Murdoch Individual, in each case as of such record date, (i) the Beneficial Ownership of Covered Voting Securities of such Murdoch Individual and (ii) the Beneficial Ownership of Covered Voting Securities of
        each Murdoch Covered Person with respect to such Murdoch Individual (clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, the “Requested Information”).  The Trust will report the results of such
        confirmation (including, if applicable, any failures of a Murdoch Individual to respond) in writing to the Company, together with the Beneficial Ownership of Covered Voting Securities of the Trust and, to the Trust’s Knowledge, any Group Member, as
        of such record date, on the earlier of the (x) tenth (10th) business day following such record date and (y) date that is two (2) business days prior to the applicable meeting of the Company’s stockholders.

    (d)        Upon the written request
        of the Company, the Trust will, from time to time, seek to confirm with each Murdoch Individual the Requested Information for such Murdoch Individual and each Murdoch Covered Person as of a date identified by the Company, and provide the Requested
        Information to the Company, together with the Beneficial Ownership of the Trust and, to the Trust’s Knowledge, any Group Member, as promptly as reasonably practicable following such request, if the Company:

     

    (i)          is
          required by any Governmental Authority to provide updated information with respect to such Requested Information;

     

    (ii)         reasonably




          deems it necessary to determine the Beneficial Ownership of any of the Murdoch Family Interests or any Group Member to ensure that a proposed repurchase of Covered Voting Securities does not result in (x) the Murdoch Family Interests, together
          with any Group Member, having Beneficial Ownership of Covered Voting Securities in excess of the Ownership Threshold or (y) the Trust having Beneficial Ownership of Class B Common Stock in excess of the Annual Threshold; or

     

    (iii)        reasonably




          deems it necessary to determine compliance with Section 1.04.

     

    (e)        If the Trust or the
          Company reasonably believes there may have been a material change in the Beneficial Ownership of any Covered Voting Securities by any Murdoch Individual or any Murdoch Covered Person, the Trust will seek to confirm (including upon the request of
          the Company, if applicable) the Requested Information and report the results of such confirmation (including, if applicable, any failures of a Murdoch Individual to respond) in writing to the Company as promptly as reasonably practicable.

     

    (f)        The Company and the
          Trust agree to keep confidential any Requested Information reported to the Company, except as required by Law.

     

    Section




        1.04.      Treatment of Excess Shares in Specified Circumstances.  In the event that, as of the record date for any annual or special meeting
          of stockholders of the Company, to the Trust’s Knowledge, the aggregate Beneficial Ownership of Covered Voting Securities by the Murdoch Family Interests exceeds the Ownership Threshold (such excess number of Covered Voting Securities, the “Excess




            Shares”), the Trust will cause such Excess Shares (a) not to be voted on any matter at such meeting of the Company’s stockholders to the extent that the sum of
          (i) the votes of the Covered Voting Securities Beneficially Owned by the Trust on such matter and (ii) the votes of the Covered Voting Securities Beneficially Owned by any other Murdoch Family Interest that are voted for the same outcome on such
          matter as the votes in clause (i) (to the extent known to the Company or the Trust) would exceed the Ownership Threshold; or (b) to be voted otherwise in the discretion of the Trust (subject to compliance with clause (a)).

     

    Section 1.05.      Notice of Distribution of Covered Voting Securities.  Not less than four (4) months (or such shorter period as may be authorized by Independent Approval) prior to any distribution by the Trust of
        Covered Voting Securities of the type described in Section 4.07, the Trust shall provide written notice to the Company (a “Distribution Notice”), which Distribution Notice shall set forth (a) the Trust’s good faith estimate of the
        anticipated date of such distribution and (b) the Trust’s plan to effect such distribution, including, if such distribution is not effected through a dispersed public offering, the identities of the Persons anticipated to receive Covered Voting
        Securities in such distribution and the number of Covered Voting Securities expected to be received by each such Person.

    (a)        Any provision of this
        Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Trust and the Company, or in the case of a waiver, by the Trust, if the waiver is to be effective against the

    (b)        No failure or delay by

        investigation in any court or before any Governmental Authority (“Litigation”) arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the matters contemplated hereby and further agrees that
        service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. mail to its address set forth in this Agreement shall be effective service of process for any such Litigation brought against it in any such court.  Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably
        and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any Litigation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the matters contemplated hereby in the Chosen Courts, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and
        agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such Litigation brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.  Each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
        Law, any and all rights to trial by jury in connection with any Litigation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the matters contemplated hereby.

    Section 4.05.      Counterparts.  This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the
        signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

     

    Section 4.06.      Specific Performance.  The Parties each acknowledge and agree that the Parties’ respective remedies at Law for a breach or threatened breach of any
        of the provisions of this Agreement would be inadequate and, in recognition of that fact, agree that, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Trust, on the one hand, or the Company, on the other hand, of the provisions of this
        Agreement, in addition to any remedies at Law, the Company and the Trust, respectively, without posting any bond, shall be entitled to obtain equitable relief in the form of specific performance, a temporary restraining order, a temporary or
        permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy that may then be available.

     

    Section 4.07.      Termination.  This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect for all Parties upon the distribution by the Trust of all or
        substantially all of the Covered Voting Securities Beneficially Owned by the Trust (including in connection with the dissolution or winding-up of the Trust); provided, that the Trust has
        complied with the notice requirement set forth in Section 1.05.

     

    Section 4.08.      Fees and Expenses.   The Company shall bear the cost of any reasonable and documented fees and expenses (including any governmental filing fees) incurred directly by the Trust in connection
        with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement (or the repurchase by the Company of any Class B Common Stock) and any third-party stockholder or derivative claim arising as a result of the execution and announcement of this Agreement (or the
        repurchase by the Company of any Class B Common Stock).

     

    Section 4.09.      Severability.  If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions,
        covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated; provided that the Parties shall negotiate in
        good faith to attempt to place the Parties in the same position as they would have been in had such provision not been held to be invalid, void or unenforceable.

     

    Section 4.10.      Effective Time.  This Agreement shall be effective as of the date hereof.

     

    Section




        4.11.      Entire Agreement.  This Agreement embodies the complete agreement and understanding between the Parties with respect to the

    Section 4.12.      Interpretation.  References in this Agreement to Articles and Sections shall be deemed to be references to Articles and Sections of this Agreement,
        unless the context shall otherwise require.  The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.”  The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in
        this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of such agreement or instrument.  Words in the singular shall be held to include the plural and vice versa.  References to “written” or “in writing” include
        in electronic form.  The word “or” shall not be exclusive.  The phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and not merely “if.”  Each of the Parties has participated in the negotiation and drafting of
        this Agreement and if an ambiguity or question of interpretation should arise, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or burdening any party by virtue of
        the authorship of any of the provisions in this Agreement.  A reference to any Person includes such Person’s successors and permitted assigns.

     

    Section




        4.13.      Headings.  The titles of Articles and Sections of this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be interpreted to
