TV1-SF-SET Australia Opportunity Overview TV1-SF-SET Australia Opportunity Overview May 2013 [PRELIMINARY DRAFT] Executive Summary Sony Pictures Television (“SPT”) is seeking approval to take ownership control of the TV1 and Sci-Fi (SF) channels and utilize the TV1/SF infrastructure and management team to launch a 3rd Sony branded (“SET”) channel in Australia on the Foxtel platform • SPT, CBS Studios, and Comcast/NBC Universal are currently equal partners in Australian Pay-TV channels TV1 and Sci-Fi (SF) on the Foxtel platform • Recent affiliate renewal negotiations has Foxtel significantly reducing subscriber fees for both TV1 and SF which have historically contributed ~50% to total revenue • The fee reductions have forced the board/management to consider (1) dissolving the partnership or (2) reducing programming and operating costs to off-set the expected decline in subscription revenue • SPT is proposing a 3rd option which would have SPT take on the TV1 and SF channels, streamline their operations and utilize their infrastructure/team to launch a 3rd channel branded “SET” • SPT’s proposed SET channel would consist of TV and film product from various genres, leveraging Sony’s extensive content library • New SET channel to be created in parallel to running TV1 and SF and assumes a Jan 1, 2014 launch date • The current consolidated business plan has projected NPV of $14.7M and a DWM of ($5.2M). NPV of $17.8M and a DWM of ($3.3M) when including incremental license fees paid to SPE (1) (1) Incremental license fees assumes 75% of SET channel content will be SPE library content. Includes 15% for residuals and 40% in2 taxes. Situation Overview SPT is in a strong position to successfully take control of TV1 and SF while launching a Sony branded general entertainment channel in Australia • SPT is in discussions with CBS and NBCU to renew long-term output deals for TV1, SF and the Sony branded SET channel – The TV1/SF partnership will be dissolved with CBS and NBCU selling their stakes to SPT – CBS and NBCU will sell their stakes to SPT for a fraction of their value since CBS and NBCU are primarily concerned with extracting ongoing licensing fees from TV1, SF and a 3rd Sony branded channel in Australia • SPT is negotiating with Foxtel to secure a long-term carriage agreement for the SET channel – Foxtel has agreed to carry the newly formed channel on the basic tier, however, additional terms in the agreement still need to be discussed (i.e., content commitment, etc.) – SPT’s proposed channel will be fully ad-supported with no subscriber fees and be positioned as the home of addictive primetime dramas and long running daytime soaps from the U.S. and Australia • TV1/SF management has provided improved ad sales projections and cost reductions which have significantly off-set the reduction in subscriptions revenues from Foxtel – Ad sales forecasts were revised to account for the a 3rd channel and a likely uptick in Pay TV ad sales – Cost reductions include, but are not limited to, the following:: – Programming savings from revised output agreements and reduced unique hours – Ad sales cost reductions from 3rd party ad sales representatives 3 – Overhead costs including reductions in salaries/headcount and technical ops Strategic Benefit to SPE SPT has an opportunity to expand our international network footprint and gain immediate operational control of TV1 and SF with limited capital investment • SPT to take ownership and operational control of TV1 and SF – Deal structured for SPE to consolidate earnings for TV1 and SF – Capitalize on restructured operations leading to significant cost savings and synergies • SPT to launch a wholly owned channel, creating long-term asset value, while leveraging TV1 and Sci-Fi’s pre-existing infrastructure Sony branded channel to be positioned as the home of addictive primetime dramas and long running daytime soaps from the U.S. and Australia Enhance brand value for SPE by introducing a Sony branded channel into the Australia market • Allows SPT to capture a revitalizing ad market in Australia Recently improved consumer confidence is driving higher growth in the overall ad market Pay TV advertising revenue is expected to continue to outgrow FTA with a forecast of $801M in 2015 (CAGR of 7.9% from 2012) • Generates incremental licensing revenue for SPE library product – Channel will draw heavily on SPE titles – including library films and unique TV product that has yet to be seen in Australia – All titles will be non-exclusive and licensed at market-rate terms 4 [Preliminary] Consolidated Financial Overview

  • February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers In
    February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Deadline Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES.
