Confidential 10 Here are thoughts on “deal terms/implications” for new deals points I hilighted –Obtained the right to exhibit 6 titles (<$50m DBO) per year on a Crackle/Pix mobile channel during the network window Previously: no SOD allowed on any platform b/w pay 1 & 2 which meant we could only have library titles on any non-ad supported crackle/pix implementation. Now on mobile we can use newer titles. 6 per year – but that’s fine for mobile where shelfspace is limited anyway. This service is directly competitive w/starzplay but they gave it to us. The rights are nonexclusive to starzplay – they can practically use them on a linear service only not an SOD sevice –Reduced EST pricing floor during Pay 2 The deal allows EST during starz windows provided we don’t underprice. We relaxed an impacractial pricing floor during pay 2 allowing us not to have to take titles down. Constant availaibltiy for est is an important product feature. –Removed prohibition to do PPV, VOD and EST on cable/sat/iptv for final 3 months of Pay 1 and Pay 2; Allows mobile ppv/vod/est during licenese periods. The deal has always prohibited ppv/vod and est on cable/sat/iptv during the starz periods and used to permit these only on the Internet. New deal (a) allows cable/sat/iptv ppv/vod/estduring last 3 mo of license pds and (b) says we can do mobile est/ppv/vod at any time. –Clarified we can use cable for digital locker re-delivery of est or ppv/vod rights Previous deal prohibited an Open Market “digital locker” redelivery over cable during the license peridos, creating a potentially confusing consumer offering,. New deal allows us to redeliver over cable/sat/iptv at any time.
