Final Order Approving Plan of Arrangement

Entertainment One announces that it has obtained a final order from the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) approving its previously announced statutory plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") under section 192 of the Canada Business Corporations Act pursuant to which an affiliate of Hasbro, Inc. will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Entertainment One for £5.60 per share in cash. Receipt of the final order follows the special meeting of Entertainment One shareholders held on 17 October 2019, at which the Company's shareholders approved the Arrangement by special resolution.

The transaction remains subject to receipt of certain regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. 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.
