Patrick Drahi’s Altice Group is expected to acquire 6Ter from M6 and TFX from TF1.
Altice has now entered exclusive negotiations with the two media groups over the sales, which are dependent on the competition of the merger between TF1 Group and the M6 Group.
Combined with BFM and RMC, Altice will now have five national channels.
The frequency of Paris Première will be returned to the regulator.
The sale of the channels is required to allay competition concerns.
No details on the sale price of the two channels have been revealed.
