However, because Nasdaq has established January 14, 2013 as the ex-dividend date for the Distribution, and as a result of related 鈥渄ue bill鈥� trading procedures, persons acquiring shares of 麻豆最新出品 common stock in the market through January 11, 2013 will still receive shares of Spinco common stock in the Distribution. 麻豆最新出品 expects to complete the Distribution at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 11, 2013.

- Under the permanent symbols 鈥淟MCA鈥� and 鈥淟MCB,鈥� respectively, beginning on January 22, 2013.
Shortly prior to the Spin-Off, 麻豆最新出品 will change its name to 鈥淪tarz鈥� and Spinco will change its name to 鈥溌槎棺钚鲁銎�.鈥� As a result of these name changes and Spinco鈥檚 use of the 鈥淟MCA鈥� and 鈥淟MCB鈥� trading symbols as described above, following the spin-off, Starz鈥檚 Series A and Series B 麻豆最新出品 Capital common stock will begin trading under the new symbols 鈥淪TRZA鈥� and 鈥淪TRZB,鈥� respectively, on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on January 14, 2013. Prior to such time, however, 麻豆最新出品鈥檚 Series A and Series B 麻豆最新出品 Capital common stock will continue to trade under the symbols 鈥淟MCA鈥� and 鈥淟MCB,鈥� respectively.
