EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
4
Executive Summary The market trends SPE identified in prior MRPs will continue to unfold over the next three years – Transitions in home entertainment to lower-margin rental models will continue to put pressure on film economics and may only be partially offset by growth in digital – Films remain a key component of the studio business and maintaining their current profit contribution requires carefully adjusting slate mix – TV production and networks, both high-growth / high-margin businesses, are an increasing percentage of studios' profits SPE has positioned itself to succeed in this market environment with a balanced approach to both film and television – Focusing on films that benefit from market trends (franchises, international appeal, family) – Continuing to generate television series with global appeal and investing for growth in networks – Emphasizing higher-margin distribution models in home entertainment – Leveraging corporate overhead between the film and television businesses – Carefully managing costs and cash flow This balanced portfolio gives SPE the opportunity to respond to changes in the market and promptly shift resources to new areas of growth The result of this strategy is strong profit and cash flow growth over the MRP period – EBIT growing from $365MM in FYE12 to $700MM in FYE15 – Net cash flow growing from $25MM in FYE12 to $400MM in FYE15 – No monetizations or challenges in FYE13 through FYE15 4

Market Trends: Increased Consumption Increased access to content through new devices drives incremental viewership, creates new revenue streams, and represents continued growth opportunities – The average consumer now views content on 3.5 devices – Total TV viewership per average consumer per week has grown from 31.2 hours in 2006 to 33.2 hours in 2010 and is projected to reach 34.3 hours by 2014 (1) – Netflix is a new buyer for television content and streaming rights The flood of new access models in the market has strengthened the link between devices and content – Content providers marketing their device-specific applications – Hardware providers marketing their content relationships 6 1.

Market Trends: Shift in Economics Home entertainment revenues are under pressure as physical sell-through gives way to physical rental options (Netflix, Redbox) perceived to have greater value and convenience – The growth of digital transactions has only partially offset the decline in physical sell-through; digital is anticipated to remain approximately 30% of HE contribution through FYE15 – Video on demand is growing and offers higher margins than subscription or kiosk rentals, however electronic sell-through has been slower to gain momentum As a result of these market shifts, film economics have changed – International appeal is increasingly important to ensure a profitable slate – Franchise films and family content are less susceptible to the decline in home entertainment and offer greater international revenue potential – Third party financing sources are demanding more favorable terms to offset risk – Talent is willing to delay compensation until a film breaks even, but total talent compensation still remains high The television market, including networks and production, continues strong growth – International networks are capitalizing on the increase in emerging market pay-TV households – The global ad market has generally rebounded despite a sluggish economy – New technologies have increased the number of buyers of TV content (e.g., Netflix) – Formats are travelling more internationally – Local television production is increasingly in demand 7
8
Market Trends: Comparison to Music The market forces putting pressure on home entertainment revenues are distinct from those challenging music revenues Home entertainment has been primarily impacted by a shift from physical sell- through to new models for physical rental (Netflix, Redbox), rather than a shift from physical to digital Filmed entertainment is partially insulated from the challenges the music industry faces with digital distribution – Unbundling: Music went from album sales ($10+) to digital singles ($0.99); films cannot be unbundled – Piracy: Music's unencrypted CDs made file sharing easier and fostered the view that ripped and shared music is acceptable; film faces piracy, however encryption on DVDs/BDs makes consumers more aware film piracy is illegal and larger file sizes make downloading harder Going forward, film's windowing model offers more flexibility to capitalize on the growth in digital – Windowed distribution provides multiple opportunities for a transaction, each with a distinct value proposition and price point – Digital offers increased pricing flexibility – Digital offerings are generally at a higher margin than their direct physical counterparts Studio economics also benefit from TV Production and Networks revenue streams which are not dependent on Home Entertainment 8

Implications for SPE SPE will benefit from the careful structuring of its film slate which focuses on more profitable genres while simultaneously managing costs The new distribution models SPE is currently exploring will be critical to success in the changing home entertainment market SPE’s cost reduction initiatives better shape the business for the current market environment SPE’s mix of film and television assets takes advantage of synergies between the two and enables SPE to continually iterate on the balance between them SPE expects to maintain Film at its current scale and level of profitability, while benefiting from growth in Television Production and Networks 9
10
SPE’s Unique Positioning 10 Success FactorsSPE’s Positioning Ability to capitalize on relationships between hardware and content Union of film and television businesses within the studio SPE is the only studio owned by a leading consumer electronics company, allowing for: – Sony branding on Indian television networks that reach approximately 350MM viewers – Product bundling and joint promotions across product lines – Featuring Sony products in SPE films and television shows – Continued production of 3D films to facilitate the sale of 3D electronics SPE has a balanced portfolio of assets across film and television – Partially offsetting effects of fluctuations in the ad market (advertising is revenue for networks, a cost for films) – Television dramas help drive international film sales while film franchises help drive television sales – Television networks consume content and are output platforms for film product

15
FYE11 and FYE12 production spending is lower due to smaller slates and delays of franchise films (e.g., Ghostbusters) to later years Slate financing less available due to uncertainty in financial markets Production savings achieved with tax-based incentives, utilizing technology to gain time and reduce costs, maintaining script integrity (cost overruns under 2% in last four years) 15 Motion Pictures Production Spending Production Spending ($MM) * * Excludes Film Financing Benefit Franchise/Tentpole filmsAll other films $1,331 $898 $786 $1,198 $1,113 $1,249 MRP Assumptions Motion Picture production spending in FYE13 through FYE15 is heavily focused on franchise films
16
Project SpendingTerm Deals Limiting new projects Signing one-step deals or reducing rates where possible Eliminating non-productive term deals Development Spending ($MM) $72 $68 16 Motion Pictures Development Spending $68 Controlling both commitments and spending based on slate needs Investing in major franchise films without increasing overall development spend
17
Negotiating post break back-end deals, reducing upfront fees for talent, and/or causing talent to accept a “hiatus” The six internally developed FYE13 titles have post cash-break deals or have talent “hiatus” Have successfully reduced upfront compensation and renegotiated back- end deals prior to starting principal photography Monitoring global incentives to capitalize on the opportunities to lower production cost ̵Shoot in countries where costs are low ̵Shoot in California where travel and other costs are minimized Exploiting tax-based incentives on a worldwide basis will save approximately $55MM on FYE12 releases and $106MM on FYE13 releases Recently closed $100MM co-financing deal with Hemisphere 17 Motion Pictures Reduce Production Costs
18
Over the last six years, SPE has kept theatrical marketing and distribution costs down or flat relative to prior years – This was accomplished through a variety of initiatives including less TV and Newspaper and increased utilization of digital FYE12 has seen a significant rebound in the US ad market – TV upfront marketplace was over $20 billion – highest ever – Dollar volume up 6.5% over prior year – Rate of change (inflation) in high single to mid double digits across the board This strong US ad market will make it increasingly difficult to keep marketing costs flat, however if the market dips again, SPE will take advantage of lower ad rates SPE will continue to pursue cost savings opportunities including the use of in-show promotional time Motion Pictures Managing Marketing and Distribution Spend 18
