SUBLICENSEE hereby guarantees full performance of all the obligations of its licensees in respect to said licensees' obligations to STANLEY WARNER and CINERAMA.

4. Supplying of Exhibition Equipment.

SUBLICENSEE recognizes that extensive special equipment is necessary to exhibit motion pictures in the Cinerama Process and that a certain amount of such equipment must be procured through CINERAMA. The items of equipment leased or purchased by STANLEY WARNER solely from CINERAMA for one (1) theatre are set forth in Schedule A annexed hereto and made a part hereof. The equipment set forth in Schedule A is hereinafter referred to as a "set of exhibition equipment." SUBLICENSEE understands that aside from the set of exhibition equipment as set forth in Schedule A, other parts and equipment, some of which are of special design, are necessary for the exhibition of Cinerama motion pictures, and SUBLICENSEE agrees that it will pay all costs thereof, recouping the same asa pre-opening expense, to the extent and in the manner set forth in Paragraph 19 hereof. STANLEY WARNER and CINERAMA .shall be under no duty or obligation to supply the same, but an of such other parts and equipment which SUBLICENSEE may wish to purchase from CINERAMA, will be purchased by SUBLICENSEE on the same terms and conditions as the same have been purchased by STANLEY WARNER, except that all payments to CINERAMA shall be made in advance of delivery.

STANLEY WARNER agrees to lease to SUBLICENSEE as many sets of exhibition equipment as shall be necessary to provide SUBLICENSEE with one (1) set for each of the Licensed Cities. Such sets of exhibition equipment will be made available to SUBLICENSEE at the factory of CINERAMA at Albertson, Long Island, New York, or at such other place in the State of New York designated by CINERAMA, (such other place to be not substantially further from New York City than Albertson, Long Island); such sets of exhibition equipment to be made available to SUBLICENSEE uncrated.

SUBLICENSEE understands that any sets of exhibition equipment beyond eight (8) will not be ready for delivery until at least six (6) months from the date of order, and that any such further sets will involve substantially greater costs to STANLEY WARNER than the cost of such eight

(8) sets. .

The initial lease period as to each set of exhibition equipment will be for four (4) years, less one day, from the date of its installation in a theatre.

STANLEY WARNER will advance the aggregate rental for the initial lease period for each of the sets of exhibition equipment (i.e., the items set lorthin Schedule A), such rental to be the

4

rental and cost paid by STANLEY WARNER for each set of exhibition equipment. STANLEY WARNER shall make such payment for the rental and cost of the set of exhibition equipmentto CINERAMA prior to delivery. Such advance by STfu~LEY WARNER shall be recouped by STANLEY WARNER as a pre-opening expense in the manner provided in Paragraph 19 hereof, unless this agreement shall be sooner terminated as provided in Article VI il! which event, the rental for all sets which have already been made available to SUBLICENSEE shall immediately become due and owing to STANLEY WARNER by SUBLICENSEE.

Accordingly, STANLEY WARNER and CINERAMA make no representations or warranties, express or implied, as to the operation, durability, freedom from defects, latent or patent, in the equipment rented by STANLEY WARNER to SUBLICENSEE hereunder. SUBLICENSEE accepts the agreement of CINERAMA to replace defective parts (as set forth in Paragraph 6) in full substitution for any claims which SUBLICENSEE might have against STANLEY WARNER or CINERAMA by reason of any such defect or failure in the exhibition equipment.

Prior to the expiration of the said initial lease period for any set of exhibition equipment, SUBLICENSEE agrees to negotiate with CINERAMA and STANLEY WARNER, for a renewal of the lease of said exhibition equipment. STANLEY WARNER and CINERAMA agree that they will not

. enter into an agreement for the extension of the lease of exhibition equipment whose leases expire after July 20, 1958, unless they shall offer to renew the lease of that portion of SUBLICENSEE's sets of exhibition equipment which are leased to STANLEY WARNE~ by CINERAMA upon substantially the same terms and conditions. In the event that no agreement is reached prior to the expiration of such lease, SUBLICENSEE agrees to remove the set of exhibition equipment from the theatre in which it is then located and redeliver the same to such place in the United States or elsewhere as shall be designated by ST ANLEY WARNER (such place to be not substantially further from the theatre in which the equipment is located than is New York City, N. Y.). Such redelivery shall take place no later than the expiration of such initial lease period. After redelivery of such set by SUBLICENSEE, STANLEY WARNER shall have thirty (30) days in which to examine such equipment and if STANLEY WARNER shall find that such equipment is not in good working condition (reasonable wear and tear excepted) or any parts thereof are missing, it shall submit to SUBLICENSEE a statement showing the cost of placing the equipment in good working condition (reasonable wear and tear excepted) and replacing any missing parts, and SUBLICENSEE shall promptly pay such cost to

STANLEY WARNER. .

SUBLICENSEE recognizes that STANLEY WARNER's lease under the Basic Agreement of the main items of the sets of exhibition equipment expires one (1) day after the lease granted to SUBLICENSEE by STANLEY WARNER expires. SUBLICENSEE readily understands that its failure to redeliver any set of exhibition equipment on or before the date its lease on such equipment expires may result in special damages to STANLEY WARNER. SUBLICENSEE hereby agrees to pay and to indemnify STANLEY WARNER against all claims, damages and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees arising out of SUBLICENSEE's failure to redeliver the sets as aforesaid.

Where possible SUBLICENSEE will obtain permission to re-export the set of exhibition equipment to the United States prior to importing such set of exhibition equipment into a foreign country.

In addition to the 60 day and 30 day grace periods as aforesaid, .if SUBLICENSEE shall have used due diligence in its efforts to ship the set of exhibition equipment to the country in which such exhibition is to commence and shall have actually commenced the shipment at least three (3) weeks prior to opening dates set forth above, but nevertheless the actual shipping time required shall be greater than three (3) weeks, SUBLICENSEE shall be entitled to an additional period of time in which to commence such exhibitions equal to the period in excess of three (3) weeks required for shipping time. As used in the preceding sentence, shipping time. shall mean the time required to ship the set of exhibition equipment from the port of exit in the United States to the port of entry in a foreign country, but such shipping time shall not include any time required to obtain customs and other clearances for the importing of the exhibition equipment into such foreign country.

SUBLICENSEE further agrees that in the event it shall designate further cities beyond the initial five (5) Cities set forth in Subdivision (i), Subparagraph (c) of Paragraph I hereof, it will within six (6) months from the date such designation i~ received by STANLEY WARNER have a theatre in said city fully equipped for the giving of public exhibitions of motion pictures in the Cinerama Process and shall have actually commenced the giving of such public exhibitions.

After a theatre shall have commenced the giving of such public exhibitions, it will give performances of motion pictures in the Cinerama Process continuously thereafter, i.e., at least one (1) such performance shall be given each day on which motion pictures are not prevented from being shown by reason of local customs or laws or governmental regulations.

In the event that CINERAMA shall require more than thirty (30) days from the receipt of the drawings and specifications of the theatre in the Licensed City selected by SUBLICENSEE and approved by STANLEY WARNER to complete the equipment and make the plans and drawings for the theatre installations and in the event that CINERAMA shall require more than six (6) weeks to dub the foreign language version (such six (6) weeks' period to commence from the date on which SUBLICENSEE has made available to CINERAMA an approved script and the services of actors for such script and such six (6) week period not to include preliminary rehearsals or delays caused solely by the persons engaged by SUBLICENSEE) or in the event that CINERAMA shall require more than one (1) week to complete theatre sound prints or in the event that STANLEY WARNER shall not deliver theatre picture prints to SUBLICENSEE in the time set forth in Paragraph 14 hereof, SUBLICENSEE shall be entitled to an additional period of time equal to the period of delay in their performance by STANLEY WARNER and CINERAMA, or either of them, in which to open the theatre in the manner aforesaid. The foregoing time extensions shall apply only in the event that SUBLICENSEE has taken all steps which. are prerequisite to performance by STANLEY WARNER or CINERAMA, as the case may be, sufficiently prior to the opening dates set forth in this Paragraph so as to afford STANLEY WARNER and CINERAMA adequate opportunity to complete the acts required to be performed by each of them prior to said opening dates. Any time extensions granted to SUBLICENSEE under this Paragraph 5 shall run concurrently where the delays on account of which such extensions have been granted occur concurrently.

6. Installation and Maintenance of Cinerama Exhibition Equipment.

With respect to the installation of each set of exhibition equipment, STANLEY WARNER shall have the right to disapprove of any theatre if the theatre's design is such that from a technical viewpoint it is not feasible to make the installations or if in the sole opinion of STANLEY WARNER the location of the theatre is not desirable.

Prior to STANLEY WARNER's decision on each theatre it will consult with CINERAMA and if CINERAMA shall disapprove of such theatre because from a technical viewpoint it is not feasible to make the installation, STANLEY WARNER shall so indicate CINERAMA's disapproval to SUBLICENSEE. If CINERAMA shall disapprove but STANLEY WARNER shall approve the theatre, SUBLICENSEE agrees that CINERAMA shall have no responsibility for the quality of performances in such theatre. If STANLEY WARNER does not notify SUBLICENSEE of its approval of a theatre within 15 days from the receipt of written notice by STANLEY WARNER of the name of a theatre tentatively selected by SUBLICENSEE, such theatre will be deemed to have been approved by STANLEY WARNER. STANLEY WARNER agrees that any theatre of which it shall disapprove shall not be used or licensed by it for the exhibition of Cinerama motion pictures unless SUBLICENSEE shall first have been given the opportunity to include such theatre under its license, subject to all the terms and conditions of this agreement.

If in any Licensed City CINERAMA shall deem it necessary to survey a theatre with its own personnel in order to determine the technical feasibility of making an installation in such theatre, the direct salary, living and travel expenses of personnel engaged in such survey shall be considered as part of the cost to CINERAMA of the erection and installation of the equipment in the Licensed City whether or not the theatre surveyed by CINERAMA personnel is the theatre actually selected for the installation of the Cinerama exhibition. The expenses previously incurred by CINERAMA in surveying the Casino Theatre in London and the Normandie Theatre in Paris shall be included in the survey expenses of those respective cities,

CINERAMA agrees to supervise the erection and installation of the equipment necessary to employ the Cinerama Process in all theatres of SUBLICENSEE in the Licensed Cities, using such exhibition equipment. SUBLICENSEE agrees to follow all the recommendations of CINERAMA with respect to all installations. SUBLICENSEE agrees that items used with a set of exhibition equipment which affect the technical operation of the equipment must be approved by CINERAMA with respect to suitability and performance characteristics before they may be used; it being understood that CINERAMA will not unreasonably withhold such approval. CINERAMA agrees that all installations shall be as nearly as possible of the same quality and general character as are the in'stallations in the theatres in the United States now exhibiting Cinerama motion pictures.

SUBLICENSEE understands that CINERAMA will require approximately thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of the plans of the theatre designated by SUBLICENSEE and approved by STANLEY WARNER in which to complete the drawings and specifications of the equipment for such theatre and will further require approximately six (6) weeks in which to complete the installation and one (1) week to train the projectionists used in such theatre. Such' time limits are estimates based upon CINERAMA's experience with installations in the United States and may vary in accordance with the necessities of the local situation. CINERAMA estimates that with the personnel presently available for supervising installations it can supervise two (2) installations simultaneously, provided the second of such installations is commenced not more than three (3) weeks prior to the scheduled completion date of the first of such installations and provided, further, that no extensive travel time is required between sites.

Prior to the commencement of exhibitions in any of the Licensed Cities, CINERAMA will train projectionists and theatre engineers who will be engaged by SUBLICENSEE for the operation of the theatres. CINERAMA will also supply a quality control group which will advise SUBLICENSEE on the methods of maintaining proper operating standards. SUBLICENSEE agrees to compJy with CINERAMA's instructions as to quality control and to make no changes in the exhibition equipment or in the manner of exhibition unless CINERAMA shall first approve. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to require CINERAMA to provide any maintenance or repair service for the equipment.

Said payment shall be made when plans and specifications of a theatre are delivered to CINERAMA. In addition, SUBLICENSEE shall pay to CIXElv\l\l;\ the direct cost of the salaries, travel and living expenses of CINERAMA's personnel engaged in the installation of each set of equipment, such payments to be made to CIKERAl\IA fr0111 time to time ill advance of the incurring of such costs by CINERAMA. The payments provided in this Paragraph shall be full compensation for all of the survey, supervision, training and quality control services to be performed by CINERAMA for SUBLICENSEE pursuant to this Paragraph.

Equipment parts which must be replaced by reason of ordinary wear and tear wiII be paid for by SUBLICENSEE at the same rate as is paid by STANLEY WARNER for like parts, payment to be made in advance of delivery. Equipment parts which have been supplied by CINERAMA and which CINERAMA in its sole discretion determines are defective, wiII be replaced by CINERAMA at its own expense.

In the event that any of the equipment becomes obsolete during the term of the lease of such equipment, STANLEY WARNER (if requested by SUBLICENSEE) will use its best efforts to obtain from CINERAMA up-to-date equipment to be leased by STANLEY WARNER to SUBLICENSEE on the basis of STANLEY WARNER's cost, as the same may be defined by STANLEY WARNER and CINERAMA for the replacement of obsolescent. equipment in STANLEY WARNER'S own theatres, for a lease of four (4) years, less one (1) day. Such rental shall be paid directly by SUBLICENSEE to CINERAMA in advance of delivery and may be recouped by SUBLICENSEE concurrently with the recoupment of the item recouped under Subparagraph 19B( 4).

The obligation of CINERAMA to SUBLICENSEE under this Paragraph shall be in full satisfaction for any similar obligations to STANLEY WARNER under the Basic Agreement as to, but only as to, the sets of exhibition equipment rented hereunder to SUBLICENSEE by STANLEY WARNER.

7. Cancellation of Underlying License.

In the event that the license granted to STANLEY WARNER by CINERAMA under the Basic Agreement shall be cancelled during the term of this agreement for causes other than a default by SUBLICENSEE, CINERAMA agrees to grant to SUBLICENSEE, the licenses, leases and other rights herein granted by STANLEY WARNER to SUBLICENSEE insofar as such licenses, leases and other rights are under the control of CINERAMA. In that event, payments hereunder to be made to STANLEY WARNER shall be made to CINERAMA, provided, however, that if STANLEY WARNER's pre-opening expenses for any theatre have not been recouped CINERAMA agrees that STANLEY WARNER shall continue to recoup its pre-opening expenses from the theatre receipts in the manner provided in Paragraph 19 hereof, and provided, further, that STANLEY WARNER shall continue to receive 35% of gross theatre receipts as film rental for motion pictures licensed to SUBLICENSEE by STANLEY WARNER, as provided in Paragraph 19 hereof.

If, after the termination of STANLEY WARNER's license, SUBLICENSEE shall require further sets of exhibition equipment and STANLEY WARNER shall be unwilling to supply the same, CINERAMA shall have an option to (a) itself advance the cost of the equipment, in which event, CINERAMA shall be entitled to all the payments from the theatre in which the equipment is placed which STANLEY WARNER would otherwise have been entitled to, except the film rental for films licensed to SUBLICENSEE by STANLEY WARNER, or (b) request that SUBLICENSEE advance the cost of such equipment and in that event CINERAMA will be entitled to receive, after the recoupment by SUBLICENSEE of pre-opening expenses for such theatre, 1 % of the gross theatre receipts from the theatre in which the equipment is used. The payments provided to CINERAMA under the exercise of either alternative shall be in addition to the royalties and other payments provided for CINERAMA. In the event that SUBLICENSEE shall make

designations, as provided in Paragraph 1 hereof, after STANLEY WARNER's license shall be cancelled, the payment of the equivalent of ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND ($100,000) DOLLARS provided in' said Paragraph to be made with each designation shall be placed in escrow with a bank of CINERAMA's choosing in the designated city, and shall be released to CINERAMA in the event that SUBLICENSEE fails to open the theatre in such designated city in the time and in the manner provided in Paragraph 5 hereof.

SUBLICENSEE and STANLEY WARNER agree that if SUBLICENSEE shall thus become the direct licensee of CINERAMA, CINERAMA shall have the right to enforce any and all of the rights and remedies provided to STANLEY WARNER under this agreement, provided, however, that STANLEY WARNER shall also retain all of such rights and remedies but may only exercise them with respect to (a) the sets of exhibition equipment' for which the rental has not been recouped in full by STANLEY WARNER, and (b) the Cinerama motion pictures then being exhibited by SUBLICENSEE which shall have been licensed to it by STANLEY WARNER.

SUBLICENSEE agrees that STANLEY WARNER shall not be liable to SUBLICENSEE in any manner because of delays in delivery of prints whether or not such delays are caused by such priority of STANLEY W ARNER, except that the failure of STANLEY WARNER to deliver the first order for each theatre to SUBLICENSEE (to wit, three (3) sets of release picture prints for each of SUBLICENSEE's theatres), sixty-three (63) days after the order and accompanying payment have been received shall give SUBLICENSEE an extension of its time to open the theatre for which the prints are ordered equal to the delay.

CINERAMA further agrees that STANLEY WARNER may add such payments by SUBLICENSEE to the royalties otherwise paid to CINERAMA by STANLEY WARNER in determining the percentage royalty due CINERAMA by STANLEY WARNER and the minumum royalty payments provided in the Basic Agreement, provided, however, that such payments shall not be added to the royalties otherwise paid to CINERAMA by STANLEY WARNER until such payments have been received by CINERAMA in dollars or if such payments are not transmitted into dollars, until such payment is spent by ONERA14A. (For the purpose of this latter computation, if payments in foreign currencies are spent by CINERAMA prior to their conversion into dollars, they shall be deemed to have been received by CINERAMA in dollars computed at the official rate of exchange prevailing on - the date of the expenditure 'by CINERAMA for the purpose of applying such payments to the percentage royalty and the minimum royalty.)

,

21. ConcessioDL

In the event that SUBLICENSEE or its licensees sells or makes arrangements with concessionaires to sell in the Cinerama theatre candy, food, drinks or any other merchandise or service, from the gross receipts received by SUBUCENSEE, it will keep and retain for itself Four percent (4%) and will pay to STANLEY WARNER One percent (1ro). From the net receipts derived by SUBLICENSEE it will pay to CINERAMA Five percent (5%). (Net receipts as used in this Paragraph shall mean the gross receipts less the actual cost to SUBLICENS~E of goods sold and salaries

18

of employees whose sole duties are the sale of goods or services and other expenses pertaining solely thereto and there shall not be deducted from the gross receipts for the purpose of calculating the net receipts the 50/0 of such gross receipts paid to SUBLICENSEE and STANLEY WARNER). The balance of the net receipts, less the payments above provided to SUBLICENSEE, STANLEY WARNER and CINERAMA, shall be divided and paid Forty percent (4070) to STANLEY WARNER and Sixty percent (600/0) to SUBLICENSEE. As used in this Paragraph the gross receipts shall mean the amount received by SUBLICENSEE from customers (less applicable sales taxes) if SUBLICENSEE itself manages the sales of such goods or services, or the amount received by SUBLICENSEE from concessionaires if SUBLICENSEE permits a concessionaire to sell .such goods or services.

The receipts derived from such concessions shall be segregated from all other receipts and the method of accounting and payments shall be similar in all respects to and subject to all the terms and conditions of the methods of accounting and payments set forth in Paragraph 19 hereof, except that the payment to CINERAMA shall be made in a like manner as the payment to STANLEY WARNER.

SUBLICENSEE makes no representation that it will be able to install such concessionaires or sell such goods and services in any or all of the Cinerama theatres in the Licensed Cities but SUBLICENSEE agrees that it will use its best efforts to do so. As used in this Paragraph 21 and in Paragraph 22, the word "SUBLICENSEE" shall include the SUBLICENSEE and any companies affiliated with SUBLICENSEE or the guarantors or persons related to, the guarantors of SUBLICENSEE.

. 22. Programs.

STANLEY WARNER shall supply to SUBLICENSEE copies of the program sold in the Cinerama theatres in the United States and SUBLICENSEE will have this program printed in the languages of the countries of the Licensed Cities at its own cost and expense and will sell the same in the theatres in connection with Cinerama exhibitions. The receipts derived from such sale shall be kept segregated from all other receipts and shall be accounted for and paid for in the same manner as the receipts derived from concessions as set forth in the preceding paragraph (except that net receipts as used in this accounting shall mean the gross receipts derived from the sale of programs, less the actual cost to SUBLICENSEE per program of printing, translation, transportation, 'salaries of employees whose sale duty is the vending of such program and other expenses pertaining solely thereto and there shall not be deducted from the gross receipts for the purpose of calculating the net receipts, the Five percent (570) of such gross receipts paid to SUBLICENSEE and STANLEY WARNER).

SUBLICENSEE will at its own cost and expense procure in the name of STANLEY WARNER all necessary copyright or similar protection for such program.

23. Foreign Currencies.

All payments required to be made under this agreement by SUBLICENSEE, to STANLEY WARNER or to CINERAMA shall be made in United States Dollars except for the distribution to be made by SUBLICENSEE of the theatre, concession and program receipts as set forth in Paragraphs 19, 21 and 22 hereof (but the payments to CINERAMA for patent royalties shall nevertheless be made in Dollars subject to the provisions in said paragraphs) and except for the payments as set forth in Paragraph 18 hereof. As to the distribution of theatre receipts (except the patent royalty to CINERAMA) and the concession and program receipts, SUBLICENSEE shall deposit the sums to which each party may be entitled in the foreign country in which such receipts are derived in the currency of such country. Such deposits shall be made into an account and in a bank designated by the party entitled thereto, and such account shall be in the name of the party entitled thereto or, its designee, and subject only to such party's or its designee's withdrawal. The

19

presentation of a deposit receipt showing such deposit shall constitute payment of the amount so

deposited. '

In the event that SUBLICENSEE shall attempt in any country to convert local currency equivalent to all or part of its portion of such theatre, concession and program receipts realized in said country into United States Dollars or into any other currency foreign to such country it shall first notify STANLEY WARNER and CINERAMA of its intention so to do and of the terms and conditions of such conversion. If CINERAMA shall so direct, the first monies to be converted shall be CINERAMA's local foreign currency. If STANLEY WARNER shall so direct, SUBLICENSEE will convert for the account of STANLEY \VAR:-.JER a portion of the local foreign currency on deposit in its account in said country. The portion of SUBLICENSEE's and STANLEY WARNER's funds to be thus included in the total amount converted shall be determined by the proportion which their respective shares of the gross receipts not theretofore remitted bear to each other on the date of the conversion, excluding from such proportion the payment of Forty percent (40%) of the gross receipts to SUBLICENSEE which represents the cost of the operation' of each theatre. The, charges, costs and expenses of conversion shall be shared by each of the parties participating therein in the same proportion as the proportion of their funds included in the conversion.

It is understood that SUBLICENSEE desires that it or its subsidiary have the right to use in the exercise of its rights under this agreement, the corporate title "Cinerama International Inc." and the word "Cinerama". It is also understood that CINERAMA is willing to grant such rights to SUBLICENSEE provided CINERAMA does not thereby impair any of its trade-mark or trade name rights in any country of the world. Accordingly permission is hereby granted by CINERAMA to SUBLICENSEE to use said corporate title and to use the word "Cinerama" in the manner stated above subject to the following conditions:

(a) Such right to use the word "Cinerama" (whether as part of a corporate title or otherwise) is subject at all times to such conditions as shall be reasonably necessary in the opinion of CINERAMA's counsel to protect CINERAMA's trade-mark and trade name rights in the word "Cinerama". In this connection it is understood that, if CINERAMA's counsel's opinion indicates that any use by the SUBLICENSEE or its subsidiary will endanger CINERAMA's trade-mark or trade name rights in the word "Cinerama", then the SUBLICENSEE or its subsidiary will discontinue such use immediately after receipt of written notice thereof from CINERAMA. Furthermore, SUBLICENSEE or its subsidiary will promptly, upon request by CINERAMA, execute and file such documents as CINERAMA's counsel may from time to time deem necessary or advisable in order to protect CINERAMA's trade-mark or trade name rights.

(b) SUBLICENSEE agrees that it will use the word "Cinerama" only upon or in relation to motion pictures produced in the Cinerama Process, or equipment supplied to SUBLICENSEE by CINERAMA or produced by or for SUBLICENSEE in accordance with standards, specifications and instructions furnished by CINERAMA. SUBLICENSEE agrees that it will not use the word "Cinerama" in connection with any other business or product.

(c) The permission granted to SUBLICENSEE hereby shall not deprive CINERAMA of any trade-mark or trade name rights which it would otherwise have if this permission had not been granted. SUBLICENSEE shall not have the right to register any trade-marks which include the word "Cinerama" unless it is done at CINERAMA's request and for CINERAMA's benefit. Furthermore, CINERAMA shall have the same rights which CINERAMA would have had if this agreement had not been made, to authorize other persons to use the word "Cinerama" in connection with their products or their corporate title provided that CINERAMA shall not authorize anyone to use a corporate title which contains the combination of words "Cinerama"

and "International", .

then, and in each and every event, at the election of STANLEY WARNER, all rights, privileges and licenses granted hereunder shall cease and terminate and STANLEY WARNER may exercise this right by terminating this' entire agreement or by terminating the license for those Licensed Cities to which the default shall relate, provided, however, that in the event of a default pursuant to the provisions of Subparagraph (e) of this Paragraph 26, STANLEY WARNER may terminate all the rights, privileges and licenses granted hereunder only with respect to the Licensed City in which or with respect to which such default shall have occurred.

As to those defaults for which a thirty (30) day notice is required to be sent by STANLEY WARNER and as to which such notice is actually sent, STANLEY WARNER agrees that within sixty (60) days of the expiration of such thirty (30) day period if the default has not been cured, it will send a further notice of termination to SUBLICENSEE or waive the, right to terminate because of said instance of default. The foregoing sentence shall not be deemed to require STANLEY WARNER to send notice of default except where such notice is specifically required in the foregoing Subparagraphs (a) through (f) of this Paragraph Zl, nor shall the foregoing sentence be deemed to require STANLEY WARNER to send such notice of default within any particular time from the happening of such default;

In the event of termination pursuant to the provisions of this Paragraph, STANLEY WARNER, in addition to any other rights or remedies it may have by law or otherwise, may forthwith retake possession of and seize without legal process all Cinerama exhibition equipment, all Cinerama motion pictures and any other property relating to this license, including but not limited to theatre picture prints, sound prints, programs and advertising material, whether or not standing in the name of SUBLICENSEE or its contractees and wherever located' and STANLEY WARNER may collect and retain all monies due or to become due SUBLICENSEE under any contract heretofore made by it with respect to the exhibition of Cinerama motion pictures. The SUBLICENSEE' hereby assigns to ST AN~EY WARNER absolutely in the event that the SUBLICENSEE's rights and privileges are terminated as in this agreement provided, all contracts, leases and monies due or to become due thereunder which the SUBLICENSEE may have with respect to the exploitation and exhibition of Cinerama motion pictures under this license. STANLEY WARNER shall have the right in its sole discretion to modify, amend, cancel or adjust all such contracts.

STANLEY WARNER agrees to notify SUBLICENSEE within fourteen (14) days from the date of termination as to which such contracts, leases, and other rights it will accept the assignment of hereunder and assume SUBLICENSEE's obligation thereunder. In the event that STANLEY WARNER shall assume any theatre leases, S~LICENSEE agrees, that it will immediately pay

..... __ .. _- ._-- .... _- ~--- .. -- -_------_ .... ~ .. - ......

over to STANLEY WARNER all of the reserve for restoration for such theatre (in the currency and in the country where such theatre is located) free and clear of all liens and charges.

In the event that after termination STANLEY WARNER shall continue an exhibition commenced by SUBLICENSEE in a theatre in respect to which SUBLICENSEE has not recouped its pre-opening expenses after STANLEY WARNER shall have fully recouped all of its pre-opening expenses SUBLICENSEE shall be entitled to recoup its pre-opening expenses in the manner set forth in Paragraph 19 and STANLEY WARNER shall account to SUBLICENSEE with respect to such recoupment monthly.

The rights of STANLEY WARNER to damages upon a default by SUBLICENSEE, including, but not limited to the right to liquidated damages provided in Paragraph 30 hereof, shall continue and survive any termination in whole or in part of this agreement.

28. Failure to Supply Sufficient Product.

If, after the payment of Cinerama royalties, the gross receipts from any of the theatres in the Licensed Cities shall for four (4) consecutive weeks fail to equal the actual operating costs (the items which comprise the operating costs are set forth in Paragraph 19A(b) hereof) and if at such' time all Cinerama motion pictures which have been delivered to SUBLICENSEE have already been exhibited in said theatre, and if STANLEY WARNER shall not request a further exhibition of a Cinerama motion picture already played, SUBLICENSEE may cease the exhibition of Cinerama motion pictures. Prior to such termination of the exhibition of Cinerama motion pictures, SUBLICENSEE will notify STANLEY WARNER of the date that such termination will occur and will accompany such notice with a statement, verified by a duly authorized responsible officer, showing the actual operating costs and the gross receipts for the previous four-week period. Following such termination, any receipts derived from the use of such theatre for such purposes other than exhibiting Cinerama motion pictures, shall belong to SUBLICENSEE, provided, however, that if such termination shall take place prior to the time when pre-opening expenses for the theatre have been recouped, the net receipts from the operation of the theatre after such termination shall be credited by SUBLICENSEE against its and STANLEY WARNER's pre-opening expenses for such theatre, in the same manner as provided in Paragraph 19 and after such pre-opening expenses have been fully recouped, such net receipts shall be applied against the reserve for restoration at the rate equivalent to $192.31 per week, converted into local currency at the official rate of exchange prevailing on the date such application is made SUBLICENSEE shall submit to STANLEY WARNER every four (4) week period a statement showing the gross receipts, operating expenses and net receipts derived from the operation of the theatre during such period.

If at any time after such termination of the run of Cinerama motion pictures, STANLEY WARNER shall tender delivery of a further Cinerama motion picture to SUBLICENSEE, as such delivery is defined in Paragraph 14 hereof, SUBLICENSEE shall discontinue as soon as possible, but no later than thirty (30) days from the date of such tender of delivery, whatever performance or exhibition is then in progress in such theatre and as promptly as possible thereafter shall commence the exhibition of such Cinerama motion picture in such theatre, such exhibition to be in full compliance with all the terms and conditions of this agreement.

It is understood that STANLEY WARNER makes no representation as to the number of Cinerama motion pictures which it will deliver to SUBLICENSEE or the length of time which any or all such pictures shall be able to run prior to such termination.

Anything in Paragraphs 26 and 27 to the contrary notwithstanding, the termination of the run of a Cinerama motion picture pursuant to the provisions of this Paragraph shall not be

deemed to be a default by SUBLICENSEE under this agreement. .

29. Injunction.

The SUBLICENSEE acknowledges that the value of the exploitation of the Cinerama Process in the Licensed Cities and the patronage of the public and others depend upon their timely and un-

23

interrupted exhibition of Cinerama motion pictures; that in the event of the expiration or sooner termination of this. agreement, and the SUBLICEKSEE's rights hereunder, irreparable and irremediable damage will be caused to ST:\~LEY W;\H.XER unless STANLEY WARNER is immediately revested and repossessed with physical possession of the Cinerama exhibition equipment, the Cinerama motion pictures delivered to SUBLICE:\SEE, all theatre prints of Cinerama motion pictures and all other property pertaining to this license and is assigned all exhibition or distribution contracts and theatre leases entered into by SUBLICENSEE. For the purpose of enforcing STANLEY WARNER's right to have such immediate possession of the property, as aforesaid, the SUBLICENSEE consents that mandatory injunctions may be issued by a court of competent jurisdiction in favor of STANLEY WARNER and against SUBLICENSEE and its contractees (and the SUBLICENSEE will by contract require similar consent from its licensees and other contractees) to compel delivery to STANLEY WARNER of the aforesaid properties as well as the books, records and data in connection therewith. The continued exhibition by the SUBLICENSEE or its licensees under this license after the expiration or sooner termination thereof shall constitute an infringement of copyright and patent rights for the abatement of which the SUBLICENSEE specifically consents that an injunction in favor of STANLEY WARNER or the holder of the copyright and patents may issue against SUBLICENSEE and its contractees (and the SUBLICENSEE will by contract require similar consent from its licensees and other contractees).

30. Liquidated Damages.

SUBLICENSEE recognizes that in the event of a default by SUBLICENSEE, STANLEY WARNER will suffer severe damage; the actual ascertainment of which might be difficult to measure. SUBLICENSEE therefore agrees that the partial liquidated damages due to STANLEY WARNER in the event that SUBLICENSEE shall fail to open theatres at the time and in the manner set forth in Paragraph 5 hereof, shall be the amount of the payment made by SUBLICENSEE as provided in Paragraphs 1 and 18 hereof, each of such payments being the partial liquidated damages for the failure to open the theatre in the country in which such deposit is made, In addition to all of the other rights granted to STANLEY WARNER, upon any default by SUBLICENSEE, SUBLICENSEE agrees that for a failure to open a Cinerama theatre as aforesaid, STANLEY WARNER shall have the irrevocable right to keep such payment as its absolute property toward the recovery of such partial liquidated damages. For the purpose of evidencing this grant, SUBLICENSEE hereby assigns to STANLEY WARNER all its rights, title and interest in and to the repayment to be made by STANLEY WARNER pursuant to Paragraph 18 hereof, as of the date of its failure to open the theatres as aforesaid.

In the event that SUBLICENSEE's default shall consist in not opening a theatre in one of the Licensed Cities (as set forth in Paragraph 5 hereof) by reason of restrictions imposed by governmental authorities after the expiration of the grace period provided in such event, the liquidated damages due to STANLEY WARNER shall be TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND ($25,000.00)' U. S. DOLLARS unless, within ninety (90) days after the expiration of the grace period, SUBLICENSEE shall have opened the theatre for the exhibition of Cinerama motion pictures in such Licensed City in which event no liquidated damages shall accrue to STANLEY WARNER by reason of the failure to open because of delays caused by governmental authorities as aforesaid.

31. Rights of Cinerama on Termination.

In view of the guarantee by STANLEY WARNER, as set forth in Paragraph 44 hereof, except as provided in Paragraph 7 hereof, CINERAMA agrees that STANLEY WARNER shall have the sole right to enforce any remedy herein provided in the event of default and CINERAMA further agrees that any Claim which it may have against SUBLICENSEE shall be fully subordinated to the claim of STANLEY WARNER.

32. No Estoppel or Continuing Waiver.

The failure of STANLEY WARNER, CINERAMA or SUBLICENSEE to enforce any provision of this agreement on any occasion shall not .estop any of them from enforcing such provision

24

on any other occasion if STANLEY WARNER, CINERAMA or SUBLICENSEE, as the case may be, shall so elect and no waiver by STANLEY WARNER, CINERAMA or SUBLICENSEE, express or implied, of any part of this agreement shall be construed to be a general or continuing waiver. Nothing in this agreement contained shall restrict, limit, prejudice or preclude any other legal or equitable right or remedy which STANLEY WARNER shall have against SUBLICENSEE, its licensees and contractees and nothing in this agreement contained shall restrict, limit, prejudice or preclude any legal or equitable right or remedy which SUBLICENSEE may have against STANLEY WARNER or CINERAMA. Any of the rights and remedies granted to STANLEY WARNER hereunder upon default by SUBLICENSEE may be exercised singly or partially (except as provided in Paragraph 27 hereof) as STANLEY WARNER shall in its sole discretion determine but the exercise or partial exercise of anyone right or remedy shall not preclude STANLEY WARNER from exercising all or any part of its rights or remedies hereunder at the same time or at some time thereafter.

ARTICLE VI.

General Provisions.

33. Contracts with United States Gove~ent.

Anything In this agreement to the contrary notwithstanding C;INERAMA shall be at liberty at any time to contract with or grant licenses to the United States Government or any of its instrumentalities for any use of the Cinerama Process and CINERAMA specifically reserves for itself alone all non-theatrical rights in the Cinerama Process.

CINERAMA agrees to indemnify SUBLICENSEE against any judgment against it obtained in a court of competent jurisdiction if such judgment is based upon any alleged infringements resulting from the use by SUBLICENSEE in the projection or exhibition of motion pictures of the Patent Rights or any apparatus or equipment furnished hereunder by CINERAMA; CINERAMA further agrees to defend any suits based on such patents, and pay all costs in connection therewith. SUBLICENSEE may participate in such suit by its own counsel at its own expense. SUBLI~NSEE agrees to notify CINERAMA and STANLEY WARNER immediately upon receipt of any notice, oral or written, of any claim for alleged infringement asserted against SUBLICENSEE, CINERAMA or STANLEY WARNER.

In the event that CINERAMA or STANLEY WARNER shall refuse to defend such infringement suits (such refusal to be evidenced by the failure of CINERAMA or STANLEY WARNER to file an answer or notify SUBLICENSEE of its intention to answer at least five (5) days prior to the date when such answer is due) SUBLICENSEE may appear and defend in such suit in its own name or in the name of CINERAMA and may deduct the expenses of such litigation from royalties otherwise due to CINERAMA. For the purpose of permitting SUBLICENSEE to thus defend such suits, CINERAMA hereby appoints SUBLICENSEE its Attorney-in-Fact to execute all documents in CINERAMA's name and to take all the steps that may be necessary for such defense.

SUBLICENSEE agrees to notify STANLEY WARNER and CINERAMA promptly of any devices, processes or products which it believes may infringe the Cinerama Process and, subject to the provisions of this Paragraph, to take all steps and to execute all documents requested by ST ANLEY WARNER or CINERAMA for the protection of the Cinerama Process.

The foregoing ~eement of CINERAMA shall be in full substitution for any obligation of STANLEY WARNER to SUBLICENSEE by reason of any patent infringement claim asserted against SUBLICENSEE.

. In the event that any of the patents comprising the Patent Rights or any of the claims under

these patents shall be declared invalid Of in the event that any of the patent applications previously or hereafter made for the Cinerama Process shall not be granted, SUBLICENSEE agrees that this

25

agreement shall. nevertheless continue in full force and effect as the license of a secret process and STANLEY WARNER and CINERAMA shall not be liable to SUBLICENSEE in any way because of such invalidity of patents or claims 'or rejection of applications.

SUBLICENSEE agrees not to challenge the validity of any of the patent rights involved and agrees to insert a similar clause in any license granted by it, but SUBLICENSEE shall not be responsible to CINERAMA or STANLEY WARNER for any breach of this clause by any of its licensees.

35. New Developments.

SUBLICENSEE, on behalf of itself and its licensees, agrees that so long as the license hereby granted shall continue, it will make available to CINERAMA and STANLEY WARNER promptly any improvements within the Cinerama Process which it may make, acquire or control. Any improvements or developments relating to the Cinerama Process which SUBLICENSEE or its licensees may make, develop, acquire or otherwise gain control of during the term of this license, shall be the property of CINERAMA, and SUBLICENSEE shall not be entitled to receive any compensation whatsoever for such improvements or developments, and SUBLICENSEE on behalf of itself and its licensees agrees to execute any documents and take any action necessary to evidence title in CINERAMA. Nothing in this Paragraph contained shall be deemed to grant to SUBLICENSEE the right to experiment with, alter or modify the exhibition equipment or any other aspect of the Cinerama Process.

SUBLICENSEE, on behalf of itself and its licensees and contractees, agrees that all information relating to the Cinerama Process shall be kept in strict confidence and shalt not be divulged or revealed to any other persons or corporations except as may be necessary to effectuate this agreement. SUBLICENSEE agrees that it will insert a similar provision in any agreement it shall make with its licensees.

The forms of all reports and statements required to be prepared and submitted by SUBLICENSEE to STANLEY WARNER under this agreement shall be subject to the approval of STANLEY WARNER and SUBLICENSEE agrees to use such approved form for all reports and statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing such reports and statements shall include daily box office receipts and the original and photostatic copies of all reports (including admission or similar tax returns) made by SUBLICENSEE to governmental authorities and reports made by governmental authorities on the operation of the theatre by SUBLiCENSEE or its licensees;

The rights granted to STANLEY WARNER hereunder to examine and inspect the records and operations of SUBLICENSEE and its licensees are similarly granted to CINERAMA to the extent that CINERAMA may' reasonably require for the purpose of ascertaining the accuracy of the payments to be made to it under this agreement.

Any accounting made hereunder which is not objected to by a notice in writing within three (3) years from the date of its receipt shall be deemed to be accepted as accurate and binding upon the party receiving the same.
