Indicative offers for the Ten Network will be accepted until 2 December 2014. Foxtel and Discovery Communications are believed to be planning to make a cash and scrip offer, whereby Ten’s existing shareholders would be given shares in the free-to-air broadcaster. The move is aimed at gaining the support of 14.9 per cent shareholder Bruce Gordon, who has ruled out selling his stake. Foxtel has also proposed to merge Ten and its own Multi Channel Network advertisings sales division
