Agenda Executive Summary Core Assets Programming Networks Distribution Ad Sales Financial Appendix

Short-form Programming by Channel and Content Type Library New Access Acquisition Original UGV [Emphasize that Minisode and Screening Room will leverage library; most original content will be against Funny Bone / AXN; Crackle will be mostly UGV with potential for some premium content]

Agenda [CONSOLIDATION OF 5-6 MARKET SLIDES IN “DIGITAL NETWORKS” SECTION PROCESS] Executive Summary Core Assets Programming Networks: Digital Distribution Ad Sales Financial Appendix

Without Digital Networks, SPT Loses Influence and Revenue SPT content continues to build and benefit other parties’ networks, replicating the current creation-distribution ecosystem Talent, seeking multi-platform exposure and marketing of productions, turns elsewhere Opportunity cost to not making library available online Content Traditional networks aggressively build online & mobile audiences, replicating position & distribution advantage in the digital world Difficult to secure real estate on digital MSOs for SPT’s a la carte content, with limited spots available in digital MSO tiers Digital MSOs increasingly dictate business models and product development without SPT input Distribution Ad dollars shifting from traditional TV to online By 2011, TV content captures largest share of online ad spending: TV: $568 m Advertising Music Video: $447 m News & Sports: $433 m Other: $145 m UGV: $137 m Source: Adams Media Research, 2007

Strategy: Create Digital Networks to Address Digital Landscape Why Digital Networks? Build Assets Generate Revenue Establish 21st century network / distribution assets for SPT Build foundation for SPTAS to bring-in new partners and expand lines of business Provide long-term distribution leverage for SPT content Provide outlets for new content and talent Capture share of developing revenue streams (IP and mobile) Unlock and monetize SPT’s vast library Give SPT seat at table to shape digital products and business models Create program franchises with follow-on windows (e.g. DVD, Direct to Mobile)

Four Networks Will Activate SPT’s Multi-Billion Dollar Library* Your favorite feature length, contemporary classic films across all major genres: comedy, action, drama, family, sci-fi and cult Episodes from the heyday of sit-coms Outrageous shorts and busted pilots Originals by contemporary comedians SPT’s “middle tail” content is hard to find Deep classic comedy library Demand for short form, original comedy exploding online Classic hard-hitting action TV series and original takes on today’s favorite action movies and stars Deep action-themed library SPE relationships with celebrity action stars and film franchises Key young male action demo also early adopter of digital tech- nology What: 2 Popular Genres, 2 Popular Formats Favorite retro TV shows told in in 4-6 minute “minisodes” Why: We matched our assets with market demand Extensive library of much-loved shows SPE’s 3,500+ feature library Format appeals to today’s “bite sized” video consumption Edited to meet the demo’s ironic, camp sensibility Popular TV format (Turner, USA, AMC, etc.) embraced by audiences but not yet translated to digital *Five including SPT’s investment in FearNet and SPT Mobile’s distribution of FearNet Mobile

Programming Philosophy Based on 4 Building Blocks SPE Film Library SPT TV Busted Pilots New Access Short-Lived Series Acquisition Prosumer Short & long form Original Production New Shows Star-Driven WTF with Penn Jillette Credence Walker Traffic Creating Branded Ent.

Distribution Philosophy Network Distribution Approach Partners D2C Online Mobile Other Online Mobile Portals / Aggregators Syndicators Social Networks Virtual Worlds Carriers Non-Carrier Aggregators MSOs & IPTV SCE: PS3, PSP SEL: Bravia, VAIO Vertical sites Originals sites WAP Application Text Emphasis on Syndication

Digital Networks and Crackle Complete SPT’s Offering Library play Original programming will also appear on Grouper User involvement play User involvement occurs on and is enabled by Grouper Distribution Networks are syndicated to digital “MSOs” (e.g., Joost, AOL, MySpace, Yahoo, MSN) in their player/environment Crackle’s website and Crackle player central to the strategy Originals Original programming is more linear in nature, uses high-end talent and is professionally selected and produced Short-form programming is largely meant to spur UGV development for the purposes of individual exposure / fame Content - selection Content is all pre-screened for quality (like a network) – an “upfront” mentality where we are the buyer Editorial and user-based rankings of content drive pyramid
