2 page 1 Executive Summary Options for handling complexities of Physical New Release –#1 Greater studio control over terms and customer relationships; less cost savings –#2 Less studio control; greater cost savings Confirm assumptions that: Key Areas to Discuss Digital is not handled by Newco To minimize start-up/system investment for Newco, each studio independently selects a 3 rd party distributor to handle and secure cost savings in distribution, invoicing, and cash collections Newco is a 50 / 50 J.V. (not a profitable entity) that includes headcount and systems for sales, marketing, ops, finance/accounting for the functions it performs (primarily Sales and Marketing, rather than distribution or vendor of record) –Overhead costs split 50/50 –All product costs passed as actuals Performance Metrics will be developed for Newco –Financial: Performance vs Budget –Operational: Returns, Freight, Inventory Turns, Merchandising –Incentive plan based on performance vs Budget’s (Financial and Operational) Goal The over-arching goal is to merge as much of our Home Entertainment businesses as possible to extract as much cost as possible and create greater efficiencies Source:1 Screen Digest, August 2010. Digital includes “VOD/PPV” (total on-demand movie consumer revenues) and “On-line” (transactional movie retail and rental download/subscription consumer revenues) 2 Nielsen Home Scan, title-level analysis; box office adjusted for inflation and 3D admissions
