2. PURPOSE / PROPOSAL The purpose of this report is to request approval on the sponsorship agreement.

3. BACKGROUND

The Mission Media Company Inc. (“TMMCI”) is the creator, producer, licensor and owner of an audio-visual media documentary project entitled, “Discovery of the Lost Ontario” (“the Project”) with content focused on HMS ONTARIO (also known as The Ontario) – a British warship that sailed during the American Revolutionary war around Lake Ontario and was rediscovered in 2008 by Jim Kennard and Dan Scoville.

The captain of this warship lived in Niagara-on-the-Lake. On its final voyage in 1780, the ship left from Navy Hall in Niagara-on-the-Lake.

And whereas , TMMCI will exclusively develop, finance, produce and market a documentary film and a range of proprietary media and events as part of the Project, including but not limited to a film and video documentary program, DVD, project-related Web site and digital media, interactive content, educational content, TV Broadcast programs and other related Project content and media for distribution in a range of uses and markets.

And whereas , the Town of Niagara-on-the-Lake (“NOTL”) is an Ontario municipality that seeks to sponsor TMMCI and “the Project” by offering sponsorship support and assistance as a “Project Sponsor” and may do so in association with the Niagara-on-the-Lake Canada 150 committee.

Report : OPS-16-036 Page 1 The agreement has been reviewed by the Town's legal counsel, and is attached in this report. As well , the documentary project outline is also attached.

4. DISCUSSION / ANALYSIS The Canada Sesquicentennial Committee supports this sponsorship, as the documentary will highlight an event and characters relevant to the Town's history.

The Committee would plan a free public event in Town in October to present the documentary.

5. OPTIONS n/a

6. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS The documentary is planned to be released in October 2017, assuming that funding support has been provided via resources pursued by TMMCI and through an Ontario 150 grant that has been applied for by the Committee. The Ontario 150 grant decision is pending.

The sponsorship agreement does not ask for funding from the Town, but does require a resource to set-up a project account to facilitate the inflow and outlay of finances.

The Town will receive funding as grants and donations and move it to Mission Media as sponsorship fees.

7. COMMUNICATIONS n/a

8. CONCLUSION The Canada Sesquicentennial Committee is requesting approval of the sponsorship agreement.

Respectfully submitted,

Sheldon Randall

All charitable donations received by NOTL related to, or in support of the Project will be designated as “Discovery of the Lost Ontario project-designated contributions” and be held by NOTL in trust, for the exclusive use of TMMCI on the Project, for preparation, production or other Project activities, and will pay out these Project funds, as per the following process:

4. REPRESENTATIONS OF THE MISSION MEDIA COMPANY INC.:

I Use of Sponsorship Fees as Project Expenditures:

All Project Sponsor Fees provided by NOTL to TMMCI as Project Sponsorship fees will be used by TMMCI to pay for Project-related expenses.

Sponsors fees may be used by TMMCI for all Project-related expenditures, including development, fundraising, pre-production, production, post-production, interactive and educational content, distribution, marketing, project and company administration and any other project-related expenditure, at the sole discretion of TMMCI.

Project activities are currently projected at $450,000 CDN. Special Event costs are in addition to this. (*please see draft project budget attached as a reference).

Our draft budget is our intended as our base case to produce, but TMMCI may choose to scale down the project to fit available funds, at TMMCI’s sole discretion.

If there is a shortfall in funds raised (below the projected Project Budget), TMMCI will make best efforts to create a revised plan to produce the Project at “a minimum threshold to produce”, as established by TMMCI.

If TMMCI deems that available production funding is not available to reach a “minimum threshold to produce”, TMMCI may choose to not produce the project, with no further consideration, penalty or claim held or due to NOTL or any other related party, regarding Project Sponsorship.

If TMMCI chooses to not produce the project, they will provide written notice to NOTL. Any Project funds held by NOTL in excess of TMMCI project expenses to date will be available for re-designated use by NOTL in other NOTL programs or return to the original donors or grantors, as per the express authorization of relevant donors and granting organizations that have provided funds to NOTL for exclusive use on the project.

HMS ONTARIO 22 Guns, 120 Souls Navy Hall, Fort Niagara - October 1780 American Revolutionary War

HMS ONTARIO was the most powerful warship on the Great Lakes during the American Revolutionary War, built by the British to defend Canada against an American invasion.

1780 around Lake Ontario was a time of bloody conflict – the British, French, Americans and Six Nations fighting to survive and control an endless frontier, unfolding to the west.

On Halloween 1780, HMS Ontario departed Navy Hall on her final mission to cross Lake Ontario. She would never arrive. All 120 souls on board would never be seen alive again.

Their disappearance was a 200-year-old mystery. Until now.

The Discovery of the Lost Ontario

Empires at war. The birth of two Nations. The disappearance & discovery of a lost Ship.

Lost for 230 years, two amateur underwater explorers have found HMS Ontario- fully intact in the darkness of the deep. Her discovery made headline news around the globe. She is one of the oldest intact Brish ships in the world and an amazing naval and archaeological arfact, right here in Lake Ontario. Yet her story has never been told.

This is a foundaon story in the founding of Canada and the founding of Niagara on the Lake. What happened to The Ontario that night? How was she lost? And what was life like for those on board, caught in a ferocious war on the edge of an endless froner?

We will use modern dive & video technology to explore The ONTARIO - to learn what was lost and is now found. Her discovery opens a door back in me: to the moment when two naons were being born. What will we discover?

We look forward to sharing this story with millions of students, visitors, audiences in special event screenings, online, on mobile and with special “on-site” installaons and events in Niagara on the Lake, and other key story locaons.
