TRUSTEE’S CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICATION

This is one of the Securities referred

NEWS AMERICA INCORPORATED

3.00% SENIOR NOTES DUE SEPTEMBER 15, 2022

Indenture

This Security is one of a duly authorized series (this series being the “Securities”) of debt securities of News America Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (“NAI” or the “Company”), issued under an Indenture dated as of August 25, 2009, as amended and restated on February 16, 2011 (the “Indenture”), among NAI, News Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“News Corporation” or the “Guarantor”), and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee (the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), which provides for the issuance by NAI from time to time of debt securities (the “Debt Securities”) in one or more series, in which the Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee and the Holders of the Debt Securities and of the terms upon which the Debt Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as in effect on the date of the Indenture (the “TIA”), and as provided in the Indenture. The terms of the Securities and Guarantee set forth in this certificate are qualified in their entirety by reference to the terms of the Indenture. The Securities are subject to all such terms, and Securityholders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of those terms. The Securities are unconditionally guaranteed on a senior basis (the “Guarantee”) by the Guarantor. Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture.

1. Paying Agent and Security Registrar

Initially, the Trustee will act as Paying Agent and Security Registrar. NAI may appoint and change any Paying Agent or Security Registrar without notice, other than notice to the Trustee. NAI or any Subsidiary or an Affiliate of either of them may act as Paying Agent, Security Registrar or co-registrar.

2. Optional Redemption by the Company

This Note is redeemable, as a whole or in part, at our option, at any time or from time to time, upon mailed notice to the registered address of the Holder at least 30 days but not more than 60 days prior to the redemption. The redemption price will be equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (2) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments (as defined below) on such Notes discounted to the date of redemption, on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), at a rate equal to the sum of the applicable Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 25 basis points. Accrued interest will be paid to the date of redemption. All calculations hereunder shall be made by the Company.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity (computed as of the third business day immediately preceding that redemption date) of the Comparable Treasury Issue (as defined below), assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for that redemption date.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Reference Treasury Dealer (as defined below) as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes, that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Notes.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date, the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations (as defined below) for that redemption date.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and its successor. If the Reference Treasury Dealer shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer, we will substitute another nationally recognized investment banking firm that is a primary U.S. Government securities dealer.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to the Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Company, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Company by the Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the third business day preceding that redemption date.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes that would be due after the related redemption date but for that redemption. If that redemption date is not an interest payment date with respect to the Notes, the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment on the Notes will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued on the Notes to such redemption date.

On and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on this Note or any portion of this Note called for redemption (unless we default in the payment of the redemption price and accrued interest). On or before the redemption date, the Company will deposit with a paying agent (or the Trustee) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on the Notes to be redeemed on that date. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee by a method the trustee deems to be fair and appropriate.

3. Repurchase Upon Change of Control Triggering Event

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, NAI shall become immediately obligated to offer to purchase the Securities pursuant to Section 13.01 of the Indenture upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase.

4. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange

The Securities are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of US$1,000 of principal amount and integral multiples thereof. A Holder may transfer or exchange Securities in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. The Security Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Security Registrar need not register the transfer or exchange of any Securities for a period of 15 days before the selection of any Securities for redemption or of any Securities so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part.

5. Persons Deemed Owners

The registered Holder of this Security may be treated as the owner of the Security for all purposes.

6. Amendment; Waiver

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of Securities under the Indenture and the waiver of compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture at any time with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debt Securities at the time outstanding (or, in case less than all of the several series of Debt Securities then outstanding are affected, of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Debt Securities at the time outstanding of each affected series). The Indenture also permits the Holders of a majority in principal amount of any series of Outstanding Securities, on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of that series, to waive certain past Defaults under the Indenture and their consequences with respect to that series. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder hereof shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders hereof and of any Securities issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made hereon.

7. Discharge and Defeasance

The Indenture contains provisions for discharge and defeasance at any time of (i) the entire indebtedness of the Securities and (ii) certain restrictive covenants and certain Events of Default applicable to the Securities, upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.

If an Event of Default, other than an Event of Default as a result of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or

reorganization, occurs and is continuing, the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare all the Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing as a result of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, the principal amount and interest, if any, of all the debt securities of that series automatically will become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any holder of such securities.

Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it receives indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of a series may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing Default (except a Default in payment of amounts specified in clause (i) above) if it determines in good faith that withholding notice is in the interests of the Holders.

9. Trustee Dealings with NAI

Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by NAI or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with NAI or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

10. No Recourse Against Others

A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of NAI shall not have any liability for any obligations of NAI under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Securityholder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.
