UMP Plc ("UMP", or "the Company") 
 
 
Recommended Proposal by UTV Software Communications Limited ("UTV") 
 Offer 
Update 
 
 
3 December 2009 
 
 
 
 
Further to the announcement made by the Company on 9 November 2009, and by way 
of update and amendment to the expected timetable of principal events referred 
to in it and set out in the document posted by the Company to Independent UMP 
Shareholders on 16 September 2009 (the "Scheme Document"), the Independent UMP 
Directors announce that conditional approval by the Foreign Investment Promotion 
Board of India ("FIPB") to the Proposal was received by UTV on 1 December 2009 
and the Court Hearing to sanction the Scheme has been rescheduled to 10.00 a.m. 
on 11 December 2009. 
 
 
Condition 2(b) to the Scheme stipulates that any conditions to the FIPB's 
approval must be satisfactory to both UMP and UTV (acting reasonably).  The 
conditions attached to the FIPB's approval to the Proposal are currently subject 
to review by the Independent Directors of UMP. 
 
 
Completion of the Proposal remains subject to the satisfaction or, if permitted, 
waiver of the Conditions to the 
 Proposal set out in the Scheme Document 
including, inter alia, receipt of the RBI's consent, the sanction of the Scheme 
by the Isle of Man Court, and the Indian Scheme (so far as it relates to UMP) 
becoming effective. The Effective Date of the Scheme is expected to be 18 
January 2010 and a revised timetable of principal events is set out below. 
 
 
The New UTV Shares to be issued pursuant to the terms of the Proposal (if the 
Scheme becomes effective) may be settled in either certificated form or, through 
a Demat Account, in dematerialised form; settlement cannot be made by any other 
means.If the New UTV Shares are held through a Demat Account they will also be 
admitted to trading on the National Stock Exchange and the Bombay Stock 
Exchange. If the New UTV Shares are held in certificated form, however, they 
will not be admitted to trading on those markets, although persons holding in 
certificated form may subsequently transfer any such New UTV Shares into a Demat 
Account. In view of the extensive process required to obtain a Demat Account, 
Independent UMP Shareholders who wish to hold their New UTV Shares in 
dematerialised form are strongly urged to contact Karvy as soon as possible. 
 
 
Details of the Demat Account opening process are set out on pages 9 - 11 of the 
Scheme Document and will follow in a further announcement to be made by the 
Company shortly. Information on opening a Demat Account can be obtained by 
contacting Yatin Sang or Nirmala Dalvi at Karvy on +91 (0)22 2630279. 
 
 
 
 
Any capitalised term used but not defined in this announcement shall have the 
meaning ascribed to it in the Scheme Document.

Jefferies International Limited, which is authorised and regulated in the United 
Kingdom by the Financial Services Authority, is acting exclusively for UMP and 
no one else in connection with the Proposal and other matters referred to in 
this announcement and accordingly will not be responsible to anyone other than 
UMP for providing the protections afforded to the clients of Jefferies 
International Limited nor for providing advice in relation to the Proposal, the 
Scheme Document or any other matter referred to in this announcement. 
Forward looking statements 
This announcement contains statements about UTV and UMP that are or may be 
forward looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical 
facts included in this announcement may be forward looking statements. Without 
limitation, any statements preceded or followed by or that include the words 
"targets", "plans", "believes", "expects", "aims", "intends", "will", "should", 
"may", "anticipates", "estimates", "synergies", "cost savings", "projects", 
"strategy", or words or terms of similar substance or the negative thereof, are 
forward looking statements. Forward looking statements include statements 
relating to the following: (i) the expected timetable for completing the 
Proposal, future capital expenditures, expenses, revenues, earnings, synergies, 
economic performance, indebtedness, financial condition, dividend policy, losses 
and future prospects of UTV, UMP or the Merged Group; (ii) business and 
management strategies and the expansion and growth of UTV's, UMP's or the Merged 
Group's operations and potential synergies resulting from the Proposal; and 
(iii) the effects of government regulation on UTV's, UMP's or the Merged Group's 
business. 
These forward looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. They 
have not been reviewed by the auditors of UTV or UMP. These forward looking 
statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors 
which may cause them to differ from the actual results, performance or 
achievements expressed or implied by such forward looking statements. These 
forward looking statements are based on numerous assumptions regarding the 
present and future business strategies of such persons and the environment in 
which each will operate in the future. All subsequent oral or written forward 
looking statements attributable to UTV or UMP or any of their respective 
members, directors, officers or employees or any persons acting on their behalf 
are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statement above. All 
forward looking statements included in this announcement are based on 
information available to UTV and UMP on the date hereof. Investors should not 
place undue reliance on such forward looking statements, and UTV and UMP 
undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward looking 
statements. 
No statement in this announcement is intended to constitute a profit forecast 
for any period. 
Dealing disclosure requirements 
Under the provisions of Rule 8.3 of the City Code, if any person is, or becomes, 
"interested" (directly or indirectly) in 1 per cent. or more of any class of 
"relevant securities" of UTV or of UMP, all "dealings" in any "relevant 
securities" of that company (including by means of an option in respect of, or a 
derivative referenced to, any such "relevant securities") must be publicly 
disclosed by no later than 3:30 p.m. (London time) on the Business Day following 
the date of the relevant transaction. This requirement will continue until the 
date on which the Scheme becomes effective or lapses or is otherwise withdrawn 
or on which the "offer period" otherwise ends. If two or more persons act 
together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether formal or informal, 
to acquire an "interest" in "relevant securities" of UTV or UMP, they will be 
deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3. 
Under the provisions of Rule 8.1 of the City Code, all "dealings" in "relevant 
securities" of UTV or of UMP by UTV or UMP, or by any of their respective 
"associates", must be disclosed by no later than 12.00 noon (London time) on the 
Business Day following the date of the relevant transaction. 
A disclosure table, giving details of the companies in whose "relevant 
securities" "dealings" should be disclosed, and the number of such securities in 
issue, can be found on the Takeover Panel's website at 
www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk. 
"Interests in securities" arise, in summary, when a person has long economic 
exposure, whether conditional or absolute, to changes in the price of 
securities. In particular, a person will be treated as having an "interest" by 
virtue of the ownership or control of securities, or by virtue of any option in 
respect of, or derivative referenced to, securities. 
Terms in quotation marks in this section "Dealing disclosure requirements" are 
defined in the City Code, which can also be found on the Takeover Panel's 
website. If you are in any doubt as to whether or not you are required to 
disclose a "dealing" under Rule 8, you should consult the Takeover Panel.
