REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Virgin Media Investment Holdings Limited
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Virgin Media Investment
Holdings Limited and subsidiaries (the ‘‘Company’’), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Virgin
Media Inc. (the ‘‘Parent’’), as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements
of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We
were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our
audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion
on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express
no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the consolidated financial position of Virgin Media Investment Holdings Limited and subsidiaries at
December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009, in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles.
