**News Corp Announces Resolution of Murdoch Family Trust Matter**

**New York, NY (September 8, 2025)** – News Corporation ("News Corp" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: NWS, NWSA; ASX: NWS, NWSLV) today announced that the trustee and beneficiaries of the Murdoch Family Trust ("MFT") informed the Company that they have reached a mutual resolution of the legal proceedings in Nevada related to the MFT, resulting in the termination of all litigation.

New trusts will be established for the benefit of Lachlan Murdoch, Grace Murdoch and Chloe Murdoch (the "Remaining Beneficiary Trusts"), and Prudence MacLeod, Elisabeth Murdoch and James Murdoch (the "Departing Beneficiaries") will cease to be beneficiaries in any trust holding shares in News Corp or Fox Corporation. New trusts for the benefit of the Departing Beneficiaries will receive cash consideration funded in part using proceeds from the public sale of approximately 14.2 million shares of News Corp Class B common stock and approximately 16.9 million shares of Fox Corporation Class B common stock previously held by the MFT.

Following these transactions, LGC Holdco, LLC ("LGC Holdco"), a company which was established, and is owned, by the Remaining Beneficiary Trusts, will own all of the remaining shares of News Corp and Fox Corporation previously held by the MFT, which is expected to consist of approximately 33.1% of News Corp's Class B common stock and less than 0.1% of News Corp's Class A common stock and approximately 36.2% of Fox Corporation's Class B common stock and less than 0.1% of Fox Corporation's Class A common stock. During the six-month period following these transactions, the Departing Beneficiaries will also sell their *de minimis* personal holdings in News Corp and Fox Corporation such that after this six-month period none of the Departing Beneficiaries will have any interest, directly or indirectly, in News Corp or in Fox Corporation. The Departing Beneficiaries will be subject to a long-term standstill agreement preventing them, and their affiliates, from acquiring shares of News Corp and Fox Corporation and taking certain other actions with respect to the companies.

We have further been informed that a term of 2050 will be established for the Remaining Beneficiary Trusts and that, following the above transactions and throughout the term, voting control with respect to the News Corp and Fox Corporation shares owned by LGC Holdco will rest solely with Lachlan Murdoch through his appointed managing director. Rupert Murdoch will continue in his role as Chairman Emeritus of the Company.

News Corp's board of directors welcomes these developments and believes that the leadership, vision and management by the Company's Chair, Lachlan Murdoch, will continue to be important to guiding the Company's strategy and success.
