Allen Karp entered into an employment agreement with the Corporation dated
July 4, 1996, as amended December 6, 1996, which provides for an annual base
salary and certain employee benefits, as well as such bonuses as may be
determined in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of up to 100% of
base salary. Messrs. Jacob and Tokio entered into employment agreements with
the Corporation dated December 6, 1996 which provide for an annual base salary
and certain employee benefits, as well as such bonuses as may be determined in
the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of up to 100% of base salary. The
agreements amend and restate the employment agreements of Messrs. Karp, Jacob
and Tokio dated December 1, 1994, provide for a minimum annual base salary of
U.S. $550,000, U.S. $260,000 and U.S. $260,000 respectively and renew
automatically, unless notice is given otherwise, for consecutive periods of one
year after the initial terms expire on January 1, 2001.
Each of such employment agreements provides that the Corporation may
provide written notice of non-renewal at any time during the first six months of
the last year of the agreement. If the Corporation provides such notice, Mr.
Karp, Jacob or Tokio, as the case may be, is entitled to a termination payment
upon the expiry of the agreement in an amount equal to two times the average of
the sum of his annual base salary and any annual bonus paid or payable during
the three
<PAGE>
immediately preceding calendar years (the "Termination Payment"), less the base
salary paid to him from the date of such notice to the expiry of the agreement,
together with any compensation previously deferred and not yet paid.
Each of such employment agreements also provides that the Corporation may
provide written notice of non-renewal on a date which is on or before one year
prior to the expiry of the agreement. In such event, the Corporation may also
elect to terminate the employment of Mr. Karp, Jacob or Tokio as of the date
which is one year prior to the expiry of the agreement. If the Corporation gives
such notice of non-renewal but does not terminate immediately such employee's
employment, the employee is entitled to a termination payment upon the expiry of
the agreement in an amount equal to his then annual base salary, together with
any compensation previously deferred and not yet paid by the Corporation. If
the Corporation provides such notice and elects to terminate such employee's
employment as of the date which is one year prior to the expiry of the
agreement, the employee is entitled to a termination payment in an amount equal
to the Termination Payment, together with any compensation previously deferred
and not yet paid.
If the employment agreement of Mr. Karp, Jacob or Tokio is terminated as a
result of a material breach by the Corporation, the employee is entitled to a
termination payment equal to the greater of (i) the most recent bonus awarded
and the base salary then being paid which would have otherwise been paid from
the date of termination of employment to the expiry date of the agreement, and
(ii) two times the annual base salary then being paid plus the most recent
annual bonus awarded. In addition, the employee will be entitled to any
compensation previously deferred and not yet paid by the Corporation. If,
however, any compensation previously deferred and not yet paid plus the
Aggregate Compensation (as herein defined) which would have been paid to him
from the date of termination of employment to the expiry date of the agreement
is greater than the aforesaid amount, then that is the termination payment to
which the employee is entitled.
If the employment agreement of Mr. Karp, Jacob or Tokio by any of them is
terminated following the occurrence of certain events involving a material
change in the operations of the Corporation or a change of control of the
Corporation (a "Material Change"), the employee is entitled to a termination
payment equal to the greater of (i) the base salary then being paid to him which
would otherwise have been paid from the date of termination of employment to the
expiry date of the agreement, and (ii) effectively between two and two and
one-half times the annual base salary then being paid plus the most recent
annual bonus awarded, as well as any compensation deferred and not yet paid by
the Corporation.
In addition, with respect to Mr. Karp's agreement only, the Corporation
may terminate Mr. Karp's employment on not less than six months' notice at
any time during the term of the agreement. If the Corporation provides such
notice, Mr. Karp is entitled to a termination payment in an amount equal to
the average of his annual base salary and any bonus paid or payable in the
immediately preceding three calendar years (the "Aggregate Compensation")
which would have otherwise been paid to Mr. Karp from the date of termination
of his employment to the expiry date of the agreement plus an amount equal to
one times the Aggregate Compensation, as well as any compensation previously
deferred and not yet paid by the Corporation.
As well, subject to any required regulatory approvals, if the Corporation
terminates the employment of Mr. Karp, Jacob or Tokio for any reason or if any
of them terminates his employment due to a Material Change, all stock options
previously granted to such employee, other than his Performance-Based Options
(as hereinafter defined), shall immediately vest and the employee shall remain
entitled to exercise any vested and unexercised stock options, including his
Performance-Based Options, previously granted to him at any time until the
expiration of the full term of the exercise period of each of such options.
Michael Herman entered into an employment agreement with the Corporation
dated December 6, 1996 which provides for an annual base salary and certain
employee benefits, as well as such bonuses as may be determined in the sole
discretion of the board of directors of up to 100% of base salary. Mr. Herman's
agreement is effective as of January 1, 1996, and provides for a minimum annual
base salary of $250,000, and renews automatically, unless notice is given
otherwise, for consecutive periods of one year after the initial term expires on
January 1, 1999.
Mr. Herman's employment agreement provides that the Corporation may provide
written notice of non-renewal on the date which is not later than six months
prior to the expiry of the agreement. If the Corporation provides such notice,
Mr. Herman is entitled to a termination payment in an amount equal to his annual
base salary as well as any compensation previously deferred and not yet paid by
the Corporation.
<PAGE>
If Mr. Herman's employment agreement is terminated as a result of a
material breach by the Corporation, he is entitled to a termination payment
equal to the greater of (i) the most recent bonus awarded and base salary then
being paid which would have otherwise been paid from the date of termination of
employment to the expiry date of the agreement, and (ii) one and one-half times
the annual base salary then being paid plus the most recent annual bonus
awarded. In addition, Mr. Herman will be entitled to any compensation previously
deferred and not yet paid by the Corporation.
If Mr. Herman terminates his employment agreement following a Material
Change, he is entitled to a termination payment equal to the greater of (i) the

date of termination of employment to the expiry date of the agreement, and (ii)
effectively between one and one-half and two times the annual base salary then
being paid to him plus the most recent annual bonus awarded, as well as any
compensation deferred and not yet paid by the Corporation.
As well, subject to any required regulatory approvals, if the Corporation
terminates Mr. Herman's employment for any reason or Mr. Herman terminates his
employment due to a Material Change, Mr. Herman would be entitled to exercise
any vested and unexercised stock options previously granted to him at any time

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE AND STOCK OPTION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE
COMPENSATION
OVERVIEW AND PHILOSOPHY
All members of the Compensation Committee and Stock Option Committee
(collectively, "the Committees") are independent, non-employee directors. It
is the Compensation Committee's function to establish, review and approve
compensation arrangements for the Chief Executive Officer, and certain other
executive officers, and to review and comment upon compensation arrangements for
all other officers of the Corporation. As part of this process, the Compensation
Committee reviews the compensation of executive officers of industry competitors
whose information is made public, but does not survey any particular index such
as The Toronto Stock Exchange's Communication and Media Index.
Section 162(m) of the INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, as amended from time
to time, generally limits the corporate deduction in respect of amounts paid to
a corporation's executive officers, unless certain requirements are met. Since
the Corporation is a Canadian corporation, the limitation of the corporate
deduction under Section 162(m) does not apply, except with respect to the
compensation paid to Mr. Michael McCartney. The salary and other compensation
paid to Mr. McCartney as part of his 1996 compensation would not be eligible for
exemption from the general rule in Section 162(m); however, the salary and other
compensation paid to Mr. McCartney in 1996 did not exceed U.S. $1,000,000, the
threshold beyond which the corporate deduction is limited. The Compensation
Committee will continue to review its compensation arrangements in light of
Section 162(m).
The objectives of the Corporation's executive compensation program are to:
(1) Support the achievement of desired corporate performance.
(2) Provide compensation that is both competitive within the industry and
which will attract and retain superior talent and reward performance.
(3) Align the executive officers' interests with those of the shareholders.
EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION PROGRAM
The Corporation's executive officer compensation program is comprised of
three key elements: base salary, discretionary annual cash incentive
compensation and long-term compensation in the form of stock options.
<PAGE>
Subject to the provisions of applicable employment agreements, base salary
levels for the Corporation's executive officers are determined primarily as a
result of a subjective assessment of the nature of the position and the
contribution of each executive officer. In addition, consideration is given to
the experience and tenure of each executive officer.
The determination of the amount of funds available for the cash incentive
compensation program is based upon a subjective assessment of the Corporation's
overall performance. In determining each individual executive officer's cash
incentive compensation, the Compensation Committee takes into account the area
of responsibility of each executive and a subjective assessment of the
performance of that area in the most recent fiscal year.
The Stock Option Plan is the Corporation's long-term incentive plan for
executive officers. The Stock Option Plan is administered by the Stock Option
Committee which consists of the same directors as the Compensation Committee.
The primary objective of the plan is to align executive and shareholder
long-term interests by attempting to create a direct link between executive pay
and shareholder return. In addition, this plan enables executives to develop and
maintain a significant and long-term ownership position in the Corporation.
Under the plan, all options that have been issued to eligible participants have
been issued at an option price not less than the market value of the Common
Shares on the last business day preceding the date of the grant. The Stock
Option Committee reviews each executive officer individually and determines any
such grant of stock options based on a subjective review of each individual
executive officer's contribution and performance throughout the year. When
determining both whether to grant stock options and the number of stock options
to be granted to each individual executive officer, the Stock Option Committee
also considers the number of stock options previously granted to each
individual, although it does not target any specific number of stock options
which should be held by any individual. In 1996, following the completion of the
Corporation's issuance of 25,000,000 Common Shares to the public (the "Public
Offering"), 24,242,181 Subordinate Restricted Voting Shares to Universal and
12,124,454 Common Shares to the Trust, shareholders of the Corporation, at the
annual and special meeting of shareholders, approved a resolution of the Stock
Option Committee authorizing an increase in the number of Common Shares
available for issuance under the Stock Option Plan to 17,646,716 Common Shares.
The Stock Option Committee believes that this increase in the number of Common
Shares available for issuance under the Stock Option Plan benefits the
Corporation because the Committee considers the ability to continue to award
stock options to officers and full-time employees necessary in order for the
Corporation to continue to be competitive in the North American motion picture
theatre exhibition industry through attracting, retaining and motivating
qualified senior management and other employees. The increase in the number of
Common Shares available for issuance under the Stock Option Plan provides the
Corporation with the flexibility it requires for this purpose.
In order to further the objectives of the Corporation to attract, retain
and motivate qualified senior management and other employees, and in order to
provide participants under the Stock Option Plan with an opportunity to
participate in long-term growth in shareholder value, contemporaneously with the
completion of the Public Offering, the Stock Option Committee determined that:
(i) the exercise prices of certain of the issued and outstanding stock options
should be amended to be the same as the price of the shares issued pursuant to
the Public Offering, being $1.868 per Common Share, and (ii) the expiry dates of
certain of the issued and outstanding stock options should be extended to the
date which is 10 years from the date of the grant of such options.
In order to accomplish the foregoing, the Stock Option Committee approved:
(i) an amendment of the exercise prices of outstanding stock options issued
under the Stock Option Plan to purchase a total of 1,180,989 Common Shares held
by non-senior officers and employees of the Corporation to $1.868 per Common
Share, and (ii) an extension of the expiry dates of outstanding stock options
issued under the Stock Option Plan to purchase a total of 737,744 Common Shares
held by non-senior officers and employees of the Corporation to the date which
is 10 years from the date of the original grant of such stock options. The Stock
Option Committee also approved, with the approval of the shareholders of the
Corporation at the annual and special meeting of shareholders: (i) an amendment
of the exercise prices of outstanding stock options issued under the Stock
Option Plan to purchase a total of 5,679,000 Common Shares held by senior
officers of the Corporation to $1.868 per Common Share, and (ii) an extension of
the expiry dates of outstanding stock options issued under the Stock Option Plan
to purchase a total of 2,019,000 Common Shares held by senior officers of the
Corporation to the date which is 10 years from the date of the original grant of
such stock options (See Schedule A). Upon completion of the Public Offering,
the Stock Option Committee approved the granting of options to purchase
8,019,020 Common Shares at a price of $1.868 per Common Share to participants
under the Stock Option Plan. Of such number, options to purchase 6,788,800
Common Shares were issued to senior officers of the Corporation.
<PAGE>
The Stock Option Committee also determined that certain of the options
issued to purchase Common Shares should be conditional upon the Corporation
meeting certain annual performance financial targets in the five years
following the granting of such options ("Performance-Based Options"). The
Performance-Based Options vest 20% per year on the date on which the
Corporation announces its year end financial results if the performance
financial target for such year is met. Of the options to acquire 8,019,020
Common Shares issued in 1996, options to acquire 2,593,244 Common Shares are
Performance-Based Options, including options to acquire 2,294,775 Common
Shares issued to senior officers of the Corporation. The performance
financial target set in respect of the Performance-Based Options was not
met in 1996 with the result that none of the Performance-Based Options have
yet vested. If, in future years, the Corporation exceeds the performance
financial targets set for such years, the excess may be carried back to a
previous year in which the target was not met, to enable the options granted
in respect of such previous year to then vest.
During 1996, the Corporation entered into new employment agreements with
certain of its senior officers. These employment agreements amended certain of
the terms of existing agreements, including amounts payable to such employees
upon the occurrence of a Material Change. These new employment agreements
reflect the Corporation's publicly stated position that the motion picture
theatre exhibition industry is currently in a period of rapid expansion that may
result in consolidation through mergers and acquisitions within the foreseeable
future. To ensure that senior management remains motivated and focused, and to
protect and enhance the best interests of the Corporation and its shareholders,
the Compensation Committee determined that it was appropriate, to maintain sound
and vital management, to revise the employment agreements of such senior
officers.
In evaluating the performance and setting the compensation of executive
officers, the Compensation Committee has taken particular note of the
significant challenges that faced the Corporation and the efforts undertaken by
the executive officers to strengthen and consolidate the financial and
operational position of the Corporation within the film exhibition industry. The
Compensation Committee has also taken into account, when reviewing executive
officer performance and compensation, the consistent commitment displayed by the
executive officers to the long-term success of the Corporation.
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION
Mr. Karp's base salary in fiscal 1996 was $750,000. Mr. Karp's annual cash
incentive in 1995 was $215,000. In addition, Mr. Karp was granted options to
acquire 2,600,000 Common Shares under the Corporation's long term incentive
plan, of which options to acquire 750,000 Common Shares are Performance-Based
Options.
The Committees, in establishing Mr. Karp's base salary, annual cash
incentive, and long-term incentive in the form of stock options, made a
subjective assessment of his accomplishments in 1996, including continuing
recognition for his efforts towards achieving the Corporation's major strategic
goals, establishing the Corporation as a leader in the film exhibition industry
notwithstanding financial constraints, and his efforts in positioning the
Corporation to aggressively and successfully pursue major strategic expansion.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
Effective January 1, 1994, the Corporation authorized the payment of fees
to independent directors consisting of an annual retainer of $5,000, a fee of
$1,000 per board meeting for attending in person, $1,500 for a chairman
attending committee meetings in person and $750 per committee meeting for
attending in person. If an independent director attends either a board or
committee meeting by way of telephone, such director receives $250 for the
meeting. For purposes of director compensation, the independent directors are
Messrs. Bratty, Daniels and Raymond.
On May 15, 1989, the Corporation entered into indemnity agreements with
each of those individuals who were then directors, in which the Corporation
extended to each such director the same form of entitlement to indemnification
as was then, and is now, contained in the Corporation's general by-law, except
that the Corporation agreed to extend to such
<PAGE>
directors, whether or not they then hold such office, such broader entitlement
to indemnification as it may subsequently provide to all of its directors.
COMPENSATION PURSUANT TO PLANS
STOCK OPTION PLAN
Under the terms of the Stock Option Plan, the number of Common Shares that
may be available for issuance may not exceed in the aggregate 17,646,716, or
such greater number of Common Shares as may be determined by the board of
directors and approved by the shareholders and by any relevant stock exchange or
regulatory authority.
The board of directors may delegate any or all of its authority with
respect to the administration of the Stock Option Plan to a committee consisting
of not less than three members of the board of directors, all of whom are not
eligible to participate in the Stock Option Plan. The board of directors has
delegated authority with respect to the administration of the Stock Option Plan
to the Stock Option Committee. (See "Meetings of the Board of Directors and
Committees".)
Only officers and full-time employees of the Corporation and its
affiliates, associates and subsidiaries are eligible to receive options under
the Stock Option Plan. As at April 22, 1997, the approximate number of eligible
participants under the Stock Option Plan was 129. Non-employee directors of the
Corporation are not eligible to participate in the Stock Option Plan. Options
granted under the Stock Option Plan are not assignable or transferable, other
than by will or the applicable laws of succession.
The Stock Option Committee has discretion to determine the vesting schedule
and duration of individual options granted pursuant to the Stock Option Plan,
but the duration may not exceed 10 years. To date, certain of the options
provide for immediate vesting while others provide for 25% cumulative vesting
each year commencing six months to one year following the grant of the options
(subject to the additional conditions imposed on Performance-Based Options noted
under "Compensation Committee and Stock Option Committee Report on Executive
Compensation"). The exercise price for each Common Share purchased under the
Stock Option Plan may not be less than the closing sale price of the Common
Shares of the Corporation on The Toronto Stock Exchange or the New York Stock
Exchange on the trading day immediately preceding the date of the grant. In the
event that the Common Shares did not trade on such trading day, the exercise
price may not be less than the average of the bid and ask prices in respect of
such shares at the close of trading on such trading day. To date, the
Corporation has consistently granted options exercisable at not less than the
current market price.
The Corporation's standard form stock option agreement provides that, upon
a sale by the Corporation of substantially all of its assets or properties, or
if an offeror is entitled to acquire all of the remaining shares of the
Corporation held by dissenting offerees pursuant to the provisions of the Act,
all options automatically become 100% vested and immediately exercisable (except
that only 75% of Performance-Based Options in respect of the financial year not
completed at such time and any subsequent financial years vest and become
immediately exercisable). In addition, the Stock Option Plan provides that if an
offer to purchase all of the Common Shares is made by a third party or in the
event of a proposed amalgamation, plan of arrangement, issuer bid or
reorganization, the Corporation may, in its discretion, require the acceleration
of the vesting and expiry dates of the outstanding stock options (subject to the
same 75% restriction in respect of Performance-Based Options).
The Stock Option Committee, without further action on the part of the
shareholders of the Corporation, may amend or terminate the Stock Option Plan,
provided that no such action may materially and adversely affect the rights
under any stock options earlier granted to a participant under the Stock Option
Plan without the consent of the participant. Any such amendment shall, if
required, be subject to any approvals required under applicable law or under the
applicable rules of any stock exchange on which the Common Shares are listed and
posted for trading. All amendments to the terms of Stock Option Plan must be
approved by the shareholders of the Corporation if the amendment would: (i)
materially increase the benefits accruing to participants under the Stock Option
Plan, (ii) increase the number of securities which may be issued under the Stock
Option Plan, or (iii) materially modify the requirements as to eligibility for
participation in the Stock Option Plan.
<PAGE>
PENSION PLANS
The Corporation has two pension plans covering employees of the
Corporation, being the Cineplex Odeon Corporation Employee Pension Plan (the
''Canadian Plan'') and the Cineplex Odeon Corporation U.S. Employees' Pension
Plan (the "U.S. Plan").
THE CANADIAN PLAN
The Corporation amended the Canadian Plan effective January 1, 1993 by
converting it from a defined benefit plan into a defined contribution plan.
Benefits accrued under the defined benefit plan were frozen at the time of
conversion. Effective January 1, 1993, all executive officers resident in Canada
are covered by the Canadian Plan.
THE U.S. PLAN
An employee is eligible to participate in the U.S. Plan upon satisfaction
of certain age and service requirements. The monthly pension amount to be
received by an employee under the U.S. Plan is based on the average of the
participant's earnings during the sixty consecutive months of employment that
produced the highest average pay during his participation in the plan ("Pension
Base Pay") and years of benefit service and is integrated based upon an
employee's covered compensation.
In the case of normal retirement at age 65, subject to certain limits, the
benefit is equal to approximately 1 1/4% of the Pension Base Pay multiplied by
up to a maximum of 35 years of service.
A participant has a vested interest in his or her "accrued benefit" upon
completion of 5 years of vesting service. The U.S. Plan also provides that once
an employee has attained the age of 55 and has accumulated at least 10 years of
service, he or she may retire and may commence receiving a pension from the U.S.
Plan immediately. If the pension benefit payments commence before the age of 65,
the monthly pension amount paid to such employee will be reduced based on such
employee's age at retirement. If a participant retires prior to the age of 65,
the participant may also be entitled to a supplemental pension payable monthly
prior to age 65.
The U.S. Plan contains disability and death benefit provisions. The
disability provision entitles the vested participant to a special monthly
disability benefit commencing at the normal retirement date if the participant
remains disabled until age 65. No disability benefits are payable if the
participant has less than 10 years of vesting service. Death benefits, and the
amount thereof, are payable depending on the participant's vesting status and
age at death.
Michael McCartney has been a member of the U.S. Plan since October 1,1987.
In 1996, Mr. McCartney's covered compensation was U.S. $150,000.
The following table shows annual gross benefits payable to participants in the
U.S. Plan, upon retirement at their normal retirement dates, in straight life
annuity amounts:

(10) Of this number, 1,584,400 Common Shares relate to options exercisable
within 60 days of April 22, 1997.
(11) Of this number, 7,522,255 Common Shares relate to options exercisable
within 60 days of April 22, 1997.
No other persons are known to the Corporation to beneficially own or
exercise control or direction over more than five percent of any class of shares
of the Corporation.
Section 16(a) of the SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, as amended, requires
the Corporation's directors and executive officers, and persons who beneficially
own more than 10% of a registered class of the Corporation's equity securities,
to file with the Securities Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership and
reports of changes in ownership of Common Shares and other equity securities of
the Corporation. To the Corporation's knowledge, based solely on review of the
copies of such reports furnished to the Corporation (and written representations
that no other reports were required), all Section 16(a) filing requirements
applicable to its executive officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial
owners were complied with, except that Mr. Michael D. McCartney filed a Form 5
in January of 1997, disclosing ownership of 3,300 Common Shares of the
Corporation acquired by him several years prior to becoming an insider, which he
inadvertently failed to report in his initial Form 3 filed in June, 1996.
