page 4 Overall Opportunity Market Level Considerations SPE Approach Local production presence enables SPE to derive higher profits from global TV formats, producing locally around the world rather than licensing to 3 rd parties While expansion priority is UK, emerging markets provide growth potential –UK is the leading market for light entertainment format origination and internationally marketable scripted series –US and major European markets drive production business volume and value –Emerging markets enhance growth rate and profitability SPE has an established local TV production presence in each of the following countries/regions –Latin America: Leading independent producer with highest market share; local production presence in Colombia and Brazil; regional format and completed program sales as well as original local language productions through operations in Miami –Russia: Leading local producer with Lean-M JV; local operations also distribute formats and completed programs in Russia, Ukraine, and other CIS territories –Middle East: Local scripted and non-scripted production operations for pan-regional and local broadcasters in UAE, Lebanon and Egypt –China: Only western company with local production operations; Huaso JV produces original local language shows and remakes of US formats such as The Dr. Oz Show; SPT format and program sales in China and Asia region through operations in Hong Kong Pursue immediate expansion opportunities including: –Russia/CIS: Strengthen/expand genres in Russia and extend local productions to Ukraine –Poland: Build production presence through JVs with top local producers –India: Capitalize on strong market growth and leverage significant networks presence TV Production

page 5 Overall Opportunity Market Level Considerations SPE Approach Emerging markets have traditionally been smaller territories but two (S. Korea and Russia) have entered the top 10 global markets As emerging markets drive an increasing percentage of global box office, success requires navigating challenges –While many U.S. titles travel well, certain genres, such as urban and domestic comedies, do not necessarily appeal to local audiences –Foreign titles are often scheduled not to compete with local product; local titles are increasingly gaining favor with local audiences –Lack of automated and transparent tracking/reporting systems can result in fraud India is experiencing rapid growth on a large base of admissions, partially offsetting low ticket prices Russia has historically faced under-reporting of box office figures, but government is considering automated system China, despite growth, has presented challenges given import quotas, preferential treatment for local titles, and low retention rates Constantly re-evaluating nature of presence in each market to determine whether scale justifies cost of overhead –Local presence in 22 branches, where investment in infrastructure yields returns –JVs with Disney in Korea and Russia –55 sub-distribution deals where the cost of building infrastructure outweighs the cost of being in business Theatrical Releasing

page 6 Market Level Considerations SPE Approach Industry-wide film production is growing in emerging markets based on strength of international box office, but profits have been limited and dependent on key market characteristics: –State of infrastructure for releasing –Government programs to limit (e.g., quotas) or give financial incentives (e.g., tax credits) –Necessity of local partnerships to gain access to markets or ensure content relevance Russia and China present challenges –Russia: Productions decreased from 220 in 2008 to 101 in 2009 –China: Productions have grown from 91 in 2000 to 456 in 2009 but many going direct-to- video due to an insufficient number of modern screens Brazil presents opportunities: productions increased from 35 in 2000 to 94 in 2009 due to favorable tax incentives and sector funds Expect overall investment and growth in local language production to remain limited Maintain local film production presence in existing international markets, both established and emerging –Currently have three productions in Germany and four in Russia –Have produced >20 films in Brazil since 2003 due to favorable tax incentives Pursue co-productions in countries with high barriers to entry –Collaborate with local filmmakers where appropriate Overall Opportunity Local Film Production

page 7 Overall Opportunity Market Level Considerations SPE Approach Emerging markets did not historically generate significant revenues, due in part to piracy As broadband penetration grows, SPE sees opportunity to drive growth through legitimate digital alternatives Given retail nature of products, Home Entertainment has been one of the closest areas of SPE/Sony Electronics collaboration in emerging markets Brazil and Russia are higher margin (higher price points and Blu-ray appetite), and higher growth with historically heavy piracy now declining India and China are lower margin, lower growth territories and have retail infrastructure challenges; however, greater digital opportunities exist BRIC is not the only growth opportunity; SPHE leverages licensees in 30+ countries for marketing and distribution Coordinated cross-Sony approach in BRIC countries –Develop digital models for PSN/Qriocity –New retail marketing opportunities including bundles with Sony Electronics –Review joint Sony Music/DADC proposal to expand SPHE’s retail and physical footprint (China) Explore opportunities to expand cross-Sony approach to other markets Other collaboration opportunities with third parties –Partner with a local distributor (China, Russia) and combine personnel (Russia) –JV with other studios for benefits of scale Home Entertainment
