According to its Quarterly Report filed with the SEC in 2019: "Pursuant to Section 219 of the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012, companies are required, among other things, to disclose certain activities, transactions or dealings with the Government of Iran or entities controlled directly or indirectly by the Government of Iran. Disclosure is generally required even where the activities, transactions or dealings are conducted in compliance with applicable laws and regulations and are de minimis. As of the date of this report, we are not aware of any activity, transaction or dealing during the three months ended June 30, 2019 that requires disclosure under the Act, except with respect to a licensing agreement entered by one of Sky’s non-U.S. subsidiaries prior to our fourth quarter 2018 acquisition of Sky. The agreement entered into in June 2012 and amended in July 2016 licensed 150 hours of programming content for various three-year license terms for a one-time fee of €86,250 to a broadcasting company that is owned and controlled by the Government of Iran. We believe that Sky conducted its licensing activity in compliance with applicable laws and that these licenses are for the permissible exportation of informational materials pursuant to certain statutory and regulatory exemptions from U.S. sanctions."
