Re: Paragraph 3.1.4. of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules

British Sky Broadcasting Group plc (the "Company") announces that:

On 11 August 2004 and 8 November 2005, James Murdoch, a director of the Company,
received awards under the Company's  Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP").
Following the satisfaction of certain performance conditions, 70% of those
awards  vested on 11 August 2007.  315,000 BSkyB ordinary shares ("Shares")
became exercisable in respect of the August 2004  award and 267,750 Shares
became exercisable in respect of the November 2005 award.

In accordance with James Murdoch's service agreement, in lieu of issuing shares
in respect of the awards, the Company  has today elected to pay him in cash an
amount of 671.5 pence per Share over the 582,750 Shares that vested, which was
equivalent to the closing mid-market price on 13 August 2007. Following the
payment James Murdoch's right to the above  awards lapsed.
