Project Blue Opportunity to invest in Australia‘s

leading on demand platform

24 MAY 2013

Strictly Private and Confidential

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Media consumption habits and technologies are experiencing fundamental structural change. Hoyts, with its existing powerful movie consumer touch-points, will leverage these developments to create a new high growth business model in the Australian home entertainment / TV channel, in partnership with Studios

1

Significant untapped on demand revenues in Australia

Hoyts has the resource, skills and assets to succeed

The standalone business case is attractive

Business structure

• High per capita traditional media consumption

• Pay-TV only 25-30% of homes; EST, tVOD and sVOD all undeveloped

• Leading, trusted entertainment brand — No. 1 cinema brand in Australia

• Deep customer base of movie lovers and active DVD renters (Kiosk)

• Strong loyalty program and ‗single CRM‘ system

• Extensive EST, tVOD and sVOD content offer (through Studio partnerships) will be attractive to consumers

• Broad device coverage and clear development roadmap

• Low cost customer acquisition and delivery model returns value to consumers and Studio partners

• 15-20% EBITDA margins at scale

• Hoyts is seeking investment in its Stream and Kiosk business of up to 49%

• Seeking investment from up to 3 Studios based on cash equity investment and revenue share content supply arrangements

• Dual returns to Studios — incremental content revenues and equity upside, while creating a new sustainable channel in the Australian and New Zealand markets

Strictly Private and Confidential

VALUE CHAIN

The entertainment value chain is evolving. Hoyts provides the opportunity to accelerate growth in new channels and growth in the overall value chain for studio partners

2

• Hoyts Exhibition, Stream and Kiosk are uniquely placed to drive additional value through the entire lifecycle of content

• Hoyts operates in the growth areas of the entertainment value chain

• Opportunity to reverse the growing trend of piracy through a compelling digital proposition

• Hoyts Stream offers the ability to monetise TV content currently not broadcast in Australia

3. The on demand market is primed for rapid growth

FOXTEL only has 27% penetration, leaving over 70% HHs with no subscription service, creating a significant sVOD opportunity

OPPORTUNITY SIZE

7

The rapidly growing sVOD, tVOD and EST markets will be worth circa A$1.5bn by 2020

• We expect the Australian sVOD market to reach 25% penetration of HHs by 2020. In the US, Netflix alone has already reached this 25% figure

• We are targeting one third of this market by revenue — FOXTEL and Telstra as well positioned to compete in the sVOD market, but they will be wary of cannibalising their premium base. If FOXTEL‘s premium subscriptions and revenues do get eroded more quickly, then this represents upside for Hoyts

• We expect the tVOD and EST market to reach parity with the DVD market by 2020. In the US, the combined tVOD and EST market is already at 63% of the size of the DVD rental market

• We are targeting 20% of this market by revenue — iTunes will also remain a significant player in these markets (circa 65-70% of the US market)

• Upsides to the opportunity exist by expansion into New Zealand, linear broadcasting and aVOD

Customer value

proposition

Hoyts Stream will offer customers a critical mass of titles, across any device, from a trusted entertainment brand

• Hoyts Stream is a blockbuster tVOD/EST service integrated with an sVOD mix of films and episodic TV. At launch, a

critical mass of around 5,000 sVOD titles (library and first run flagship) and 2,500 tVOD / EST titles

• Available on PC, Tablet and connected TV. High quality customer experience based on great UI and recommendations

• Looking forward, linear and aVOD capability provide ‘second horizon’ expansion opportunities

OPPORTUNITY SUMMARY—HOYTS HOME ENTERTAINMENT

13

There is a unique opportunity to partner with Hoyts, Australia‘s largest theatrical exhibitor, as it builds the nation‘s leading independent video streaming service

Market readiness Australia is primed for a credible, Netflix-like, OTT player to enter and win the largely untapped on

demand market • The fundamentals of the Australian home entertainment market are very strong with a per capita spend of $533 pa

• The broadband market is mature and able to support streaming services

• The on demand market is primed: DVD sales are moving rapidly to digital and pay-tv penetration is low relative to overseas

• Hoyts is well resourced and passionate about quality content, whereas competitors are struggling to make a mark

Business model Hoyts is developing a low cost business model that will maximise returns to content owners and equity partners

• Efficient cost structure maximising equity return to shareholders

• By 2020, we will be delivering very healthy revenues to content partners, whilst also earning a

reasonable EBITDA margin

Opportunity size Hoyts Stream will target the rapidly growing sVOD, tVOD and EST markets, worth circa A$1.5bn by 2020

• In 2012 the transaction video market in Australia was worth $2.0bn. The subscription video market was worth $2.6bn

• FOXTEL is well positioned to offer VOD services, but it will be wary of cannibalising its small base

• Therefore, we expect to secure 33% of the sVOD market by value and 20% of the more competitive tVOD / EST market

• In competitive markets, like the US, UK and Canada, committed challengers have flourished (e.g. Netflix / LoveFilm)
