PART I
Item 1: Business.
(a) General Development of Business.
Continued Expansion
Cinemark USA, Inc., a Texas corporation (the "Company"), is the fourth
largest motion picture exhibitor in North America in terms of the number of
screens in operation. The Company was organized in December 1987 to consolidate
theatre operations then controlled by its shareholders. Since its formation, the
Company has increased the number of screens it operates by approximately 369%
from 337 to 1,583 at March 27, 1997 through internal development and
acquisitions. The Company's 1,583 screens are in 180 theatres located in 29
states, Canada, Chile and Mexico, consisting of 1,195 screens in 128 "first run"
theatres and 388 screens in 52 "discount" theatres. Of the Company's 1,583
screens, 1,057 (or 65%) were built by the Company during the 1990's, and, as a
result, the Company believes it operates one of the most modern theatre circuits
in the industry. The Company's revenues have increased from $43.3 million in
1988 to $341.7 million in 1996. Of the screens operated by the Company, 1,242
were built by the Company and 341 were acquired. The Company anticipates that
most of its future growth will come primarily through the development of new
theatres and the addition of screens to existing facilities.
The Company maintains its principal executive offices at 7502 Greenville
Avenue, Suite 800, Dallas, Texas 75231. Its telephone
number at such address is (214) 696-1644.
Senior Subordinated Notes Offering and Senior Note Repurchase
On August 15, 1996, the Company issued $200 million aggregate principal
amount of 9-5/8% Series A Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Series A Notes")
pursuant to Rule 144A (the "Offering"). The net proceeds of the Offering were
used by the Company to (i) repurchase an aggregate $123,370,000 of the Company's
12% Senior Notes due 2001 (the "Senior Notes") and pay premium and consent fees
related thereto pursuant to an Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation to
repurchase all of the Company's $125 million principal amount of Senior Notes
and (ii) reduce the Company's indebtedness under the then existing credit
facility. The Company exchanged the Series A Notes in October 1996 for 9-5/8%
Series B Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Senior Subordinated Notes"), which
Senior Subordinated Notes have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended.

New Credit Facility
On December 12, 1996, the Company replaced its existing credit facility
with a reducing revolving credit agreement (the "Credit Facility") through a
group of banks for which Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association
acts as administrative agent (the "Administrative Agent"). The Credit Facility
provides for loans to the Company of up to $225.0 million in the aggregate. The
Credit Facility is a reducing revolving credit facility; therefore, at the end
of each quarter during the calendar year 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2003, the
aggregate commitment shall automatically be reduced by $8,437,500, $11,250,000,
$14,062,500 and $22,500,000 respectively. The Company is required to prepay all
loans outstanding in excess of the aggregate commitment as reduced pursuant to
the terms of the Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are
secured by a pledge of a majority of the issued and outstanding capital stock of
the Company.
Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Facility, funds borrowed currently bear
interest at a rate per annum equal to the Offshore Rate (as defined in the
Credit Facility) or the Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Facility, as the
case may be), plus the Applicable Margin (as defined in the Credit Facility). As
of March 27, 1997, the interest rate was 6.6%.
Covenants and provisions contained in the Credit Facility restrict, with
certain exceptions, among other things, the Company's or any Restricted
Subsidiary's ability (i) to create or incur any additional liens on any assets,
(ii) to sell assets of the business in excess of $2.0 million in a single
transaction or related series of transactions, or in excess of $5.0 million in
any 12-month period, (iii) to engage in mergers, consolidations or conveyances
of all or substantially all of its assets, (iv) to make any direct or indirect
advance, loan or other extension of credit or capital contribution to other
persons or entitles, (v) to incur additional indebtedness, (vi) to enter into
certain transactions with affiliates, (vii) to invest in margin stock, (viii) to
enter into capital leases, (ix) to declare or pay dividends or make other
distributions, (x) to prepay the Senior Notes or Senior Subordinated Notes, (xi)
to engage in a material line of business substantially different from the line
of business currently conducted, (xii) to make significant changes in accounting
treatment or reporting practices or change the Company's or any consolidated
Restricted Subsidiary's fiscal year, (xiii) to restrict the ability of any
Restricted Subsidiary to make payments to the Company, or (xiv) to restrict the
ability of the Company to create or assume a lien in favor of the Bank upon its
property or
2
<PAGE>
assets. The Credit Facility also requires the Company to maintain
specified financial ratios.
Events of default under the Credit Facility include, among other things:
(i) any failure of the Company to pay principal thereunder when due, or to pay
interest or any other amount due within two business days after the due date,
(ii) material inaccuracy of any representation or warranty given by the Company
in the Credit Facility, (iii) breach of certain covenants and agreements in the
Credit Facility by the Company, (iv) the continuance of a default by the Company
in the performance of or compliance with specific terms or covenants in the
Credit Facility for a period of three days or other terms or covenants in the
Credit Facility or other loan documents for twenty days after notice thereof,
(v) default by the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries under any other
indebtedness (other than the Indenture, the Senior Subordinated Note Indenture
or Swap Contracts (as defined in the Credit Facility)) in the aggregate
principal amount of $1.0 million, (vi) a default under the Indenture or the
Senior Subordinated Note Indenture or the Senior Subordinated Note Indenture and
(vii) certain changes of control and acts of bankruptcy, insolvency or
dissolution.
Sale of 2 Day Video
On October 17, 1996, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement
(the "Purchase Agreement") pursuant to which the Company sold all of the shares
of Class A Common Stock of 2 Day Video, Inc. owned by the Company for an
aggregate purchase price of $10.1 million. The net proceeds from the sale of the
stock of 2 Day Video, Inc. were used to continue the Company's expansion program
and for general corporate purposes.
Foreign Developments
General
The motion picture exhibition business has become increasingly global, and
rising box office receipts from international markets indicate that some
international markets are poised for rapid growth. The Company believes that its
experience in developing and operating multiplex theatres provides it with a
significant advantage in developing multiplex facilities in international
markets. In 1992, the Company formed Cinemark International, Inc. (f/k/a
Cinemark II, Inc.) ("Cinemark International") to develop and acquire theatres in
international markets. All of the Company's operations outside of the United
States and Canada will be
3
<PAGE>
conducted through Cinemark International, an unrestricted subsidiary under the
Company's Indenture governing the Senior Subordinated Notes, and its
subsidiaries.
Cinemark International is introducing state-of-the-art multiplex theatres
to the significantly "under-screened" Latin American markets. Currently,
Cinemark International operates thirteen first-run theatres (127 screens) in
Mexico and Chile with an aggregate of twenty-two theatres (221 screens)
scheduled to open or begin construction in these two countries as well as in
Brazil, Argentina, Peru and Ecuador during the remainder of 1997. Additionally,
Cinemark International operates two discount theatres (24 screens) in Alberta,
Canada. Due to the enormous potential of the international market, Cinemark
International is expanding beyond the Latin American market into Asia. In March
1997, Cinemark International entered into a strategic joint venture with a
Japanese motion picture company to build state-of-the-art multiplex theatres
throughout Japan and surrounding Asian markets. Cinemark International's
strategy will be to continue to form strategic partnerships or joint ventures
with local partners, thereby sharing risk and obtaining valuable market insight.
Mexico
In 1993, Cinemark Mexico (USA), Inc. ("Cinemark Mexico") was formed as an
indirect subsidiary of the Company to pursue new development opportunities in
Mexico through its wholly owned subsidiary, Cinemark de Mexico, S.A. de C.V.
("Cinemark de Mexico"). As of March 27, 1997, Cinemark International and New
Wave Investments AVV, an unaffiliated Aruba corporation owned by Mexican
citizens ("New Wave"), own 95.6% (95.0% on a fully diluted basis, including the
exercise of outstanding warrants) and 4.4% (4.4% on a fully diluted basis,
including the exercise of outstanding warrants), respectively, of the common
stock of Cinemark Mexico. As of March 27, 1997, warrants to purchase 22,222
shares of common stock of Cinemark Mexico are issued and outstanding.
Cinemark International, through its subsidiary Cinemark Mexico, is
developing state-of-the-art multiplex theatres. Cinemark Mexico's operations are
conducted through its subsidiary Cinemark de Mexico. Cinemark Mexico currently
operates eleven theatres (114 screens), with three theatres (35 screens) under
commitment with executed leases.
In September 1996, Cinemark Mexico completed an Exchange Offer and Consent
Solicitation (the "Exchange Offer") to restructure the outstanding Cinemark
Mexico Notes (as hereinafter defined) and to
4
<PAGE>
issue New Mexico Notes (as hereinafter defined) in exchange for outstanding
warrants to purchase common stock of Cinemark Mexico. In connection with the
Exchange Offer, Cinemark International also amended certain terms of the Mexico
Senior Credit Facility. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Conditions and Results of Operation--Liquidity and Capital Resources."
Chile
In November of 1992, Cinemark International entered into a joint venture
agreement with Conate, S.A., a Chilean movie theatre operator ("Conate"), to
develop state-of-the-art multiplex theatres in Chile. The joint venture provides
for the development of multiplex theatres and provides for the licensing of the
Company's technology, trademark and name. The joint venture conducts its
business through Cinemark Chile, which is 50% owned by Inversiones Cinemark,
S.A., a subsidiary of Cinemark International, and 50% owned by Conate. Cinemark
Chile, which is based in Santiago, Chile, currently operates two theatres (13
screens) and plans to begin construction on three theatres (32 screens) during
the remainder of 1997.
Canada
Cinemark International, through its wholly owned subsidiary Cinemark
Holdings Canada, Inc., owns a 50% interest in Cinemark Theatres Alberta, Inc.
("Cinemark Alberta") which currently operates two discount theatres (24 screens)
managed by the Company pursuant to a management agreement.
Argentina
In December 1995, Cinemark International entered into a joint venture
agreement with D'Alimenti S.A., an Argentinean corporation ("DASA"), and
Prodecine S.A., an Argentinean corporation ("Procine"), to develop
state-of-the-art multiplex theatres in Argentina. The joint venture agreement
also provides for the licensing of the Company's technology, trademark and name.
The joint venture's business is conducted through Cinemark Argentina, S.A.,
which is 50% owned by Cinemark Argentina Holdings, S.A. The remaining 50% is
owned equally by DASA and Procine. Cinemark International and Conate each own
50% of Cinemark Argentina Holdings, S.A. Cinemark Argentina plans to open its
first theatre (8 screens) in April 1997 and begin construction on three theatres
(27 screens) during 1997.
Brazil
5
<PAGE>
In 1996, Cinemark Brazil was organized as an indirect subsidiary of
Cinemark International. Cinemark Brazil will develop state-of- the-art multiplex
theatres comparable to theatres developed by the Company in the U.S. Cinemark
Brazil expects to open its first theatre (12 screens) in May 1997. Additionally,
Cinemark Brazil expects to begin construction on six theatres (64 screens)
during 1997.
Peru
In December 1996, Cinemark International and Conate entered into a joint
venture agreement to develop state-of the-art multiplex theatres in Peru. The
joint venture provides for the licensing of the Company's technology, trademark
and name. The joint venture conducts its business through Cinemark del Peru,
S.A., which is 50% owned by Cinemark International and 50% owned by Conate.
Cinemark del Peru, S.A. expects to open one theatre (12 screens) during 1997.
Ecuador
In September 1996, Cinemark International entered into a joint venture
agreement with The Wright Group, a group of prominent Ecuadorian individuals and
companies, to develop state-of-the-art multiplex theatres in Ecuador. The joint
venture agreement provides for the licensing of the Company's technology,
trademark and name. The joint venture conducts its business through Cinemark del
Ecuador, S.A. ("Cinemark Ecuador") which is 60% owned by Cinemark International
and 40% owned by The Wright Group. Cinemark Ecuador expects to open two theatres
(16 screens) during 1997.
Japan
In March 1997, Cinemark International entered into a joint venture
agreement with Shochiku Co., Ltd., a Japanese distributor, exhibitor and
producer of movies ("Shochiku") to develop state-of- the-art multiplex theatres
in Japan. The joint venture will conduct its business through Shochiku Cinemark
Theatres, which is 26.7% owned by Cinemark International, 26.7% owned by
Shochiku, and the remaining 46.6% owned by a consortium of prominent Japanese
companies. Shochiku Cinemark Theatres plans to open its first theatre (7
screens) in March 1997 and plans to begin construction on an additional theatre
(12 screens) during 1997.

(b) Financial Information About Industry Segments.
The Company is a unitary business as described above and as a result does
not break out its business into industry segments.
(c) Narrative Description of Business.
General
The Company
The Company is the fourth largest motion picture exhibitor in North America
in terms of the number of screens in operation. At March 27, 1997, the Company
operated 1,583 screens in 180 theatres located in 29 states, Canada, Chile and
Mexico, consisting of 1,195 screens in 128 first run theatres and 388 screens in
52 "discount" theatres. Of the Company's 1,583 screens, 1,057 (or 65%) were
built by the Company during the 1990's, and, as a result, the Company believes
it operates one of the most modern theatre circuits in the industry. All of the
Company's theatres are multiplex facilities with approximately 92% of the
Company's screens located in theatres of six or more screens. The Company
believes that its ratio of screens to theatres (8.8 to 1 at March 27, 1997) is
the highest of the five largest theatre circuits in the U.S. and is
approximately 75% higher than the industry average (approximately 5 to 1). From
its fiscal year ended December 31, 1991 through the fiscal year ended December
31, 1996, the Company has increased consolidated revenues approximately 108%
from $164.4 million to $341.7 million and has increased EBITDA approximately
134.2% from $26.0 million to $60.9 million.
The Company is an industry leader in new theatre construction and operation
and, according to industry sources, has constructed more screens than any other
exhibitor during the 1990s. The Company believes that the attractiveness,
comfort and viewing experience provided by its modern facilities result in the
Company's theatres more often being the preferred destination for moviegoers in
its markets.
The Company is actively participating in the ongoing trend toward the
development of larger multiplexes, commonly referred to as "the rescreening of
America." The Company's management experience and financial flexibility permit
it to introduce larger multiplex theatre facilities into areas previously served
by smaller theatres, thereby capturing moviegoers who seek more attractive
surroundings, wider variety of films, better customer service, shorter lines,
more convenient parking and a greater choice of seating to view popular movies.
The Company's larger multiplex
7
<PAGE>
facilities increase per screen revenues and operating margins and enhance its
operating efficiencies. Such theatres enable the Company to present films
appealing to several segments of the movie going public while serving patrons
from common support facilities (such as box office, concession areas, rest rooms
and lobby). In addition, larger multiplex facilities provide the Company with
greater flexibility in staffing, movie scheduling and equipment utilization
while reducing congestion throughout the theatre. Larger multiplex facilities
also provide increased flexibility in determining the length of time that a film
will run. The Company can lengthen the run of a film by switching it to a
smaller auditorium after peak demand has subsided and has the potential to
generate higher profits as film license agreements typically provide for a lower
film rent to be paid later in a film's run.
Revenues for the Company are generated primarily from box office admissions
and theatre concession sales, which accounted for 62% and 34%, respectively, of
fiscal 1996 revenues. The balances of the Company's revenues consist of revenue
collected from video games located in the lobbies of the theatres and on-screen
advertising.
Business Strategy
The Company intends to continue to grow through new theatre development by
applying the same techniques it has implemented since it was founded. The
Company believes that it is unique among major theatre exhibitors in the
development and execution of the following four-part business strategy:
Continue to build in underserved mid-sized markets. The Company intends to
continue to build first run theatres in undeserved mid-sized markets and suburbs
of major metropolitan areas with populations of 50,000 to 200,000 where the
Company frequently will be the sole or leading exhibitor in terms of first run
screens operated. The Company believes it gains maximum access to film product,
and thereby realizes a competitive advantage, by locating its modern multiplex
theatres in new and existing film zones where little or no competition for film
product exists.
Capitalize on popularity of "megaplex" concept. The Company intends to
continue focusing on multiplex theatres which enable maximum utilization of
theatre facilities and enhance operating efficiencies, thereby maximizing profit
per square foot. The Company believes a well-designed and operated theatre
represents a natural setting for more than a movie exhibition site, but rather a
family entertainment complex. The Company intends to expand its construction of
larger "megaplex" entertainment centers in major
8
<PAGE>
metropolitan areas. In December 1992, the Company opened its first megaplex,
Hollywood USA , a 15-screen, 52,000 square-foot complex containing a large video
arcade and a pizzeria. The Company subsequently opened two additional megaplexes
styled after the original Hollywood USA . Based upon the success of these
complexes, which consistently rank among the Company's top grossing facilities
on a per screen basis, the Company expanded the megaplex concept. In the last
twelve months, the Company has developed eight megaplexes, each exceeding 80,000
square feet and featuring 16 or more screens with 75 foot screens in the largest
auditoriums, stadium seating, digital sound, a pizzeria, a coffee bar and a
large video arcade room.
Continue to expand discount theatre niche. The Company intends to continue
to build discount theatres (admission of $1 to $2 per ticket) primarily in major
metropolitan markets to serve patrons who miss a film during its first run
exhibition or who may not be able to afford to attend first run theatres on a
frequent basis. The Company believes that its discount theatres allow it to
serve these segments of the total moviegoing population, increasing the number
of potential customers beyond traditional first run moviegoers. The Company
develops its multiplex discount theatres with many of the same amenities as its
first run theatres, including wall-to-wall screens, comfortable seating with
cupholder armrests, digital sound, multiple concession stands and a video game
room. The Company's discount theatres generally have higher attendance, lower
film costs and a greater proportion of concession revenues than its first run
theatres. As of March 27, 1997, approximately 24% of the Company's screens were
discount screens.
Develop modern American-style theatres in underserved international
markets. The Company intends to continue to develop multiplex theatres directly
or through joint venture arrangements with local partners in underserved
international markets. The Company's activities to date in international markets
have been directed toward Latin America, which the Company believes is severely
underscreened and is still typically served by one- and two-screen theatres
which are often antiquated and/or run-down. In March 1997, the Company expanded
its international focus with Cinemark International entering into a joint
venture agreement with a prominent Japanese motion picture company to develop
and operate multiplex theatres in Japan and surrounding Asian markets. The
Company believes that the same economic factors giving rise to the multiplex
rescreening trend in the U.S. are similarly applicable to international markets.
The Company believes that it was the first U.S. circuit to open American-style
modern multiplex theatres in Chile and Mexico, and currently has theatres under
construction in Brazil, Argentina, Ecuador and Peru.
9
<PAGE>
Operations
The Company's corporate office, which employed approximately 160
individuals as of March 27, 1997, is responsible for theatre development and
site selection, lease negotiation, theatre design and construction, film
licensing and settlements, concession vendor negotiations and financial and
accounting activities. The Company's theatre operations are divided into six
geographic divisions, each of which is headed by a regional leader. The
Company's regional leaders have an average of over 10 years experience in the
movie theatre industry and each is responsible for supervising approximately 15%
of the Company's theatre managers. Theatre managers are responsible for the
day-to-day operations of the Company's theatres including optimizing staffing,
developing innovative theatre promotions, preparing movie schedules, purchasing
concession inventory, maintaining a clean and functioning facility and training
theatre staff.
To maintain quality and consistency within the Company's theatres, the
Company conducts regular inspections of each theatre and operates a program
which involves unannounced visits by unidentified customers who report on the
quality of service, film presentation and cleanliness of the theatre.
Theatre Development
The Company continually evaluates existing and new markets for potential
theatre locations. The Company generally seeks to develop theatres in markets
that are underscreened as a result of changing demographic trends or that are
served by aging theatre facilities. Some of the factors the Company considers in
determining whether to develop a theatre in a particular location are the
market's population and average household income, the proximity to retail
corridors, convenient roadway access, the proximity to competing theatres and
the effect on the Company's existing theatres in the market, if any.
The Company designs its multiplex theatres with bright colors, neon, tile
and marble and state-of-the-art technology, to create a festive and memorable
experience for the customer. The Company has designed several prototype
theatres, each of which can be adapted to suit the size requirements of a
particular location and the availability of parking, and to respond to
competitive factors or specific area demographics. The Company believes the
fully designed prototypes result in significant construction and operating cost
savings. More importantly, the Company believes that construction and operation
of high quality theatres provides significant competitive advantages as theatre
patrons, and therefore film
10
<PAGE>
distributors, seek clean, conveniently located, modern facilities with
state-of-the-art equipment.
The Company's theatres typically contain auditoriums consisting of 100 to
400 seats each and feature wall-to-wall screens, high back rocking chairs with
cupholder armrests, digital sound, multiple concession stands and video game
rooms. The Company's megaplex facilities typically will exceed 80,000 square
feet, feature 16 or more screens with 75 foot screens in the largest
auditoriums, stadium seating, digital sound, a pizzeria, a coffee bar and a
large video arcade room. The Company believes that, in particular, stadium style
auditoriums with digital sound provide an entertainment experience which is
superior to that available at a conventional theatre. Jurassic Park, released in
the summer of 1993, was the first major motion picture to utilize digital sound.
The Company estimates that at least a majority of the films produced in 1997
will have digital soundtracks available as an alternative to the standard stereo
soundtrack. More than 65% of the Company's first run theatres have one or more
auditoriums with digital sound capabilities, and the Company is continuing to
add digital sound capabilities.
Film Licensing
Films are typically licensed from film distributors owned by major film
production companies and from independent film distributors that distribute
films for smaller production companies. For first run films, film distributors
typically establish geographic zones and offer each available film to all
theatres in a zone. The size of a film zone is generally determined by the
population density, demographics and box office potential of a particular market
or region, and can range from a radius of three to five miles in major
metropolitan and suburban areas to up to 15 miles in small towns. The Company
currently operates theatres in approximately 102 first run film zones. Each
film, regardless of the distributor, is generally licensed to only one theatre
in each zone. New film releases are licensed at the discretion of the film
distributors on an allocation or previewed bid basis. In film zones where the
Company has little or no competition, the Company selects those pictures it
believes will be most successful. In film zones where the Company faces
competition, the Company usually licenses films on an allocation basis. Under an
allocation process, a particular distributor will rotate films among exhibitors,
typically providing movies to competing exhibitors solely based on the order of
their release. For second run films, film distributors establish availability on
a market-by-market basis after the completion of exhibition at first run
theatres, and permit each
11
<PAGE>
theatre within a market to exhibit such films without regard to film zones.
The Company licenses films through its booking office located at the
Company's corporate headquarters in Dallas, Texas. All of the major motion
picture studios and distributors also maintain offices in Dallas. The Company's
film bookers have significant experience in the theatre industry and have
developed long-standing relationships with the film distributors. Each film
booker is responsible for a geographic region and maintains relationships with
representatives of each of the major motion picture studios and distributors
having responsibility for their respective geographic regions. The Company
licenses films from all of the major distributors and is not dependent on any
one studio for motion picture product.
Prior to negotiating for a film license, the Company's booking personnel
evaluate the prospects for the film. The criteria considered for each film
include cast, director, plot, performance of similar films, estimated film
rental costs, expected MPAA rating and the outlook for other upcoming films.
Successful licensing depends upon knowledge of the tastes of local residents.
A film license typically specifies a rental fee to be paid to the
distributor based on the higher result of either a gross receipts formula or a
theatre admissions revenue sharing formula. Under a gross receipts formula, the
distributor receives a specified percentage of box office receipts, with the
percentage generally declining over the term of the run. First run film rental
percentages usually begin at 70% of box office receipts and gradually decline to
as low as 30% over a period of four to seven weeks. Second run film rental
percentages typically begin at 35% of box office receipts and often decline to
30% after the first week. Under the theatre admissions revenue sharing formula
(commonly known as the "90/10" clause), the distributor receives a specified
percentage (i.e., 90%) of the excess of box office receipts over a negotiated
reimbursement for theatre expenses. In general, most distributors follow an
industry practice of adjusting or renegotiating the terms of a film license
subsequent to exhibition based upon the film's success.
Competition
The Company's theatres compete against both local and national exhibitors.
In film zones where the Company has little or no direct competition
(approximately 75% of the Company's theatres), the Company selects those
pictures it believes will be most successful in its markets from among those
offered to it by distributors.
12
<PAGE>
Where the Company faces competition, it usually licenses films based on an
allocation process. The Company currently operates in approximately 102 first
run film zones in the U.S. The Company believes that no individual film zone is
material to the Company. The Company believes that the principal competitive
factors with respect to film licensing include capacity and location of an
exhibitor's theatre, theatre comfort, quality of projection and sound equipment,
level of customer service and licensing terms. The competition for customers is
dependent upon factors such as the availability of popular films, the location
of theatres, the comfort and quality of theatres and ticket prices. The Company
believes its admission prices at its first run and discount theatres are
competitive with admission prices of respective competing theatres.
The Company's theatres face competition from a number of other motion
picture exhibition delivery systems, such as network, syndicated and pay
television, pay-per-view and home video systems. The impact of such delivery
systems on the motion picture exhibition industry is difficult to determine, and
there can be no assurance that existing or future alternative delivery systems
will not have an adverse impact on attendance. The Company's theatres also face
competition from other forms of entertainment competing for the public's leisure
time and disposable income.
Employees
As of March 27, 1997, the Company had approximately 6,500 employees in the
U.S., approximately 20% of whom are full time employees and 80% of whom are part
time employees. The Company is a party to collective bargaining agreements with
five unions of which approximately ten full-time employees are members. The
Company considers its relations with its employees to be satisfactory.
Regulation
The Company is subject to various general regulations applicable to its
operations, including the Americans with Disabilities Act (the "ADA"). The
Company has established a program to review and evaluate the Company's existing
theatres and its specifications for new theatres and to make any changes to such
theatres and specifications required by the ADA. The Company develops new
theatres to be accessible to the disabled and believes that it is otherwise in
substantial compliance when readily achievable with current regulations relating
to accommodating the disabled. Management believes that the cost of complying
with the ADA will not be material.

Item 2: Properties.
Of the 1,432 screens operated by the Company in the U.S. at March 27, 1997,
27 theatres (322 screens) were owned, 132 theatres (1,042 screens) were leased
pursuant to building leases, 2 theatres (14 screens) were leased pursuant to
ground leases and 4 theatres (54 screens) were managed. The Company's leases are
generally entered into on a long term basis with terms (including options)
generally ranging from 20 to 40 years. Approximately 33 of the Company's theatre
leases (covering 164 screens) have remaining terms (including renewal periods)
of less than 5 years and approximately 38 of the Company's theatre leases
(covering 386 screens) have remaining terms (including renewal periods) more
than 15 years. Rent is typically calculated as a percentage of box office
receipts or total theatre revenues, subject to an annual minimum. The Company
leases office space in Dallas, Texas for its corporate office which expires on
June 30, 1998. See note 9 of the Company's Notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements for information with respect to the Company's lease commitments.
As of March 27, 1997, the Company operated 15 theatres (151 screens)
outside of the U.S. with 11 theatres (120 screens) under commitment with
executed leases. Of the 15 theatres operated outside of the U.S., 14 theatres
(139 screens) were leased pursuant to ground or building leases and one theatre
(12 screens) was fee owned. The leases generally provide for contingent rental
based upon operating results (subject to an annual minimum). Generally, these
leases will include renewal options for various periods at stipulated rates. The
Company attempts to obtain lease terms that provide for build-to-suit
construction obligations of the landlord.
Item 3: Legal Proceedings.
Tinseltown Litigation
Effective April 19, 1996, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement
and Release ending litigation that the Company filed against the City of Dallas
for rejecting the development plan of a proposed theatre. The City of Dallas
paid the Company $5 million in monetary damages, and the Company agreed to
dismiss all claims against the defendants. An Agreed Final Order of the District
Court was issued on April 23, 1996, dismissing the litigation with prejudice.
From time to time, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings
arising from the ordinary course of its business operations, such as personal
injury claims, employment matters and contractual disputes. The Company believes
that its potential
15
<PAGE>
liability with respect to proceedings currently pending is not material in the
aggregate to the Company's consolidated financial position or results of
operations.
Item 4: Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
There have not been any matters submitted to a vote of security holders
during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year covered by this report through the
solicitation of proxies or otherwise.
PART II
Item 5: Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related
Stockholder Matters.
There is no established public trading market for the Company's Common
Stock. As of March 27, 1997, there were 27 holders of record of the Company's
Common Stock. The Company has not paid dividends on its Common Stock and does
not expect to pay dividends on its Common Stock in the foreseeable future. The
Subordinated Notes Indenture and the Credit Facility contain restrictions on the
Company's ability to pay dividends on its Common Stock.

Item 7: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations.
Overview
The following is an analysis of the financial condition and results of
operations of the Company. This analysis should be read in conjunction with the
Company's Consolidated Financial Statements, including the notes thereto,
appearing elsewhere in this report.
The Company's revenues are generated primarily from box office receipts
and concession sales. The Company's revenues are affected by changes in
attendance and average admission and concession revenues per patron. Attendance
is primarily affected by the commercial appeal of the films released during the
period or year reported. Since the Company's formation, attendance has grown
principally from the development and acquisition of theatres. The Company has
generally experienced increases in average admission and concession revenues per
patron from ticket and concession price increases as well as the development of
theatres in markets that can support higher ticket and concession prices.
Additional revenues related to theatre operations are generated by electronic
video games installed in video arcades located in some of the Company's
theatres.
Film rentals, concession supplies and salaries and wages vary directly
with changes in revenues. These expenses have historically represented
approximately 65% of all theatre operating expenses and approximately 50% of
revenues. Film rental costs are based on a percentage of admissions revenues as
determined by film license agreements. The Company purchases concession supplies
to replace units sold. Although salaries and wages include a fixed component of
cost (i.e., the minimum staffing cost to operate a theatre facility during
non-peak periods), salaries and wages move in relation to revenues as theatre
staffing is adjusted to handle attendance volume.
Conversely, facility lease expense is primarily a fixed cost at the theatre
level as the Company's facility leases generally require a fixed monthly minimum
rent payment. Facility lease expense as a percentage of revenues is also
affected by the number of leased versus fee owned facilities. The addition of a
larger
19
<PAGE>
proportion of fee owned properties in the future should result in a decrease in
facility lease expense as a percentage of revenues and an increase in the level
of depreciation expense.
Additionally, advertising cost is primarily fixed at the theatre level as
daily movie directories placed in newspapers represent the largest component of
advertising costs. The monthly cost of these ads is based on the size of the
directory. However, advertising costs have remained relatively constant when
expressed as a percentage of revenues as screen growth results in the addition
of new or larger directory ads.
Utilities and other costs include certain costs that are fixed such as
property taxes, certain costs which are variable such as liability insurance,
and certain costs that possess both fixed and variable components such as
utilities, repairs and maintenance and security services.
The results of operations of acquired theatres are included in the Company's
Consolidated Financial Statements from their date of acquisition. Fiscal years
ended December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996 are not directly comparable due to the
effects of new theatre openings, acquired theatres and the impact of the debt
service associated with certain financings undertaken. Theatre closings have had
no significant effect on the operations of the Company. See notes 1 and 3 of the
Company's Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Comparison of Years Ended December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995
Revenues. Revenues in 1996 increased to $341.7 million from $298.6 million,
a 14.5% increase. The increase in revenues is primarily attributable to a 11.1%
increase in attendance resulting from strong industry performance, the first
full year of operations of 130 screens opened in 1995 and the net addition of
206 screens since 1995. The contribution from the new screens opened in 1996 is
not fully reflected in the Company's operations as a majority of the new screens
were not opened until late 1996. Revenues were also positively affected by an
increase in admission and concession revenues per patron of 6.2%. The strong
industry performance and new screen openings contributed to an increase of 3.5%
in the revenues per average screen to $258,495 for 1996 from $249,840 for 1995.
Cost of Operations. Cost of operations, as a percentage of revenue,
increased slightly to 76.7% in 1996 from 76.3% in 1995. The increase as
percentage of revenues resulted from increases during the period in film rentals
as a percentage of admission revenues to 49.2% in 1996 from 48.6% in 1995 and an
increase in utilities and other as a percentage of revenues to 14.6% in 1996
from 14.2% in 1995. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in
concession supplies as a percentage of concession revenues to 15.8% in 1996 from
16.9% in 1995.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses,
as a percentage of revenues, increased to 6.9% in 1996 from 6.6% in 1995.
General and administrative expenses in absolute terms increased to $23.5 million
in 1996 from $19.6 million in 1995. The increase as a percentage of revenues and
in absolute terms is primarily the result of a $1.8 million special bonus
payment paid to key employees during the second quarter of 1996 to provide for
the estimated taxes due on the exercise of non-qualified stock options and
increases in salaries and wages, travel, and miscellaneous expenses associated
with the Company's international expansion.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization
increased $5.9 million in 1996 to $21.8 million. in 1995. The
increase includes a $2.4 million charge pursuant to Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 (FASB 121). In accordance
with FASB 121, the Company wrote down the assets of certain
theatres to their realizable value which exceeded their carrying
value. Depreciation and amortization before the affect of FASB 121
22
<PAGE>
increased $3.5 million for 1996. The increase is a result of the net addition of
$163.3 million in theatre property and equipment during 1996, a 56.8% increase
over 1995. The difference in the percentage increase in depreciation and
amortization compared to the increase in theatre property and equipment is a
result of the timing of when the additions were placed in service during the
period.
Interest Expense. Interest costs incurred, including amortization of debt
issue cost and debt discount, increased 15.1% to $24.3 million (including the
capitalization of $3.9 million of interest to properties under construction)
from $21.1 million in 1995 (including capitalized interest of $1.7 million) .
The increase in interest costs incurred during 1996 was due principally to an
increase in average debt outstanding resulting from borrowings under the Credit
Facility and the Senior Subordinated Indenture.
Income Taxes. Income taxes increased to $12.3 million in 1996 compared to
$10.1 million in 1995, a 22.2% increase, resulting primarily from the increase
in income before taxes and permanent differences associated with the sale of
certain assets. The Company's effective rate for 1996 increased to 45.8% from
43.4% in 1995. The effective tax rates reflect the full reserve of the potential
tax benefit associated with the loss incurred by Cinemark Mexico.
Other Gains and Losses. Other gains and losses for 1996 of $11.1 million is
primarily attributable to a gain from the settlement of litigation and the sale
of 2 Day Video, Inc., an 82% subsidiary of the Company.
Extraordinary Items. In the third quarter of 1996, the Company issued $200
million aggregate principle of 9-5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes, a portion of
the proceeds of $193.2 million (net of discount, fees and expenses) were used to
repurchase 98.7% of the Company's $125 million 12% Senior Notes at a price of
$1,098.33 per $1,000 principal amount. As a result, an extraordinary loss of
$9.0 million (net of related tax benefit) was recognized in connection with the
premium paid and the write-off of the unamortized debt issue costs associated
with the Senior Notes repurchased. The remaining loss is attributable to the
refinancing of the Company's bank line of credit during 1996.
23
<PAGE>
Net Income. Net income before extraordinary items of $14.6 million for 1996
and net income of $13.2 million for 1995 included the consolidated losses of
Cinemark Mexico of $2.6 million (net of minority interest) and $2.7 million (net
of minority interest), respectively.
Comparison of Years Ended December 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994
Revenues. Revenues in 1995 increased to $298.6 million from $283.1 million
in 1994, a 5.5% increase. The increase is primarily attributable to a combined
increase of 5.1% in admission and concession revenues per patron. Attendance
remained constant despite the addition of 130 screens. The contribution from
these new screens is not fully reflected in the Company's operations, as a
majority of the new screens were not opened until late 1995. The contribution to
revenues from admission and concession price increases was partially offset by a
decrease in per patron revenues in Mexico as a result of the devaluation of the
Mexican peso that began in late December 1994. Revenues per average screen
remained constant at approximately $250,000 per screen despite average admission
and concession price increases and improved revenues per screen from new U.S.
screen openings as revenues per screen for the 92 screens the Company operated
in Mexico declined significantly as a result of the Mexican peso devaluation.
Cost of Operations. Cost of operations, as a percentage of revenues,
decreased to 76.3% in 1995 from 77.3% in 1994. The decrease resulted primarily
from a decrease in concession costs as a percentage of concession revenue to
16.9% in 1995 from 18.4% in 1994 associated with an increase in concession
pricing which was partially offset by an increase in film rental expense as a
percentage of admission revenues to 48.6% in 1995 from 48.1% in 1994. Other
operating costs as a percentage of revenues remained relatively constant between
the two periods.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses,
as a percentage of revenues, increased to 6.6% in 1995 from 6% in 1994. General
and administrative expenses increased to $19.6 million in 1995 from $17.1
million in 1994, primarily from increases in salaries and wages, travel, and
miscellaneous expenses associated with the Company's domestic and international
expansion and increased amortized compensation expense resulting from the grant
of stock options at less than fair market value.
24
<PAGE>
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased 5.3%
in 1995 to $15.9 million from $15.1 million in 1994. The increase is a result of
the net addition of $79.5 million in theatre property and equipment during 1995,
a 38.2% increase over 1994. Depreciation and amortization expense did not
increase in direct proportion with the increase in theatre property and
equipment as $43.7 million of the additions were either placed in service in
late 1995 or will be placed in service in 1996.
Interest Expense. Interest costs incurred, including amortization of debt
issue cost and debt discount, increased 2.4% during 1995 to $21.1 million
(including the capitalization of $1.7 million of interest to fee properties
under construction) from $19.5 million of interest costs in 1994 (including $.6
million of capitalized interest). The increase in interest costs incurred for
1995 was due principally to an increase in average debt outstanding resulting
from borrowings under the Company's bank line of credit.
Other Gains and Losses. In 1995, the Company recorded a gain on the sale of
10 theatre properties (46 screens) of $5.5 million and losses of $.6 million
relating to the disposition of an interest in Funtime Pizza International, L.C.
and the write-off of costs, principally professional fees, relating to merger
negotiations with another theatre circuit which were terminated in May 1995.
Income Taxes. Income taxes increased to $10.1 million in 1995 compared to
$7.1 million in 1994, a 42.9% increase, resulting from the increase in income
before taxes. The Company's effective tax rate for 1995 was 43.4% compared to
50.2% for 1994. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily a result of
reduction in the relative level of goodwill and foreign losses as a result of
the increase in total earnings. The effective tax rates reflect the full reserve
of the potential tax benefit associated with the loss incurred by Cinemark
Mexico.
Net Income. Net income of $13.2 million in 1995 and $7.0 million in 1994
included the consolidated losses of Cinemark Mexico of $2.7 million (net of
minority interest) and $2.5 million (net of minority interest), respectively.
Inflation and Foreign Currency
25
<PAGE>
The Mexican currency has experienced a significant devaluation since
December 1994. Cinemark Mexico's debt and certain of Cinemark Mexico's theatre
lease rents are denominated in U.S. dollars while its revenues are denominated
in Mexican pesos. As a result of the devaluation, certain costs of Cinemark
Mexico have almost doubled in relation to Cinemark Mexico's revenues.
Additionally, the majority of the equipment and interior finish material of
Cinemark Mexico's theatres have been imported from the U.S. As a result of the
devaluation, Cinemark Mexico has recognized a $11.1 million cumulative
unrealized currency translation loss adjustment in shareholders' equity as of
December 31, 1996. The devaluation has significantly and adversely affected the
Mexican economy and will impact the short term profitability of Cinemark
Mexico's theatres. Additionally, there is a reduced level of available capital
in the Mexican financial markets due to a significant rise in Mexican interest
rates. This in turn has resulted in the reduced availability of developer
financing for future projects. Such events have caused a reduction in the rate
of expansion initially anticipated by Cinemark Mexico. As of March 27, 1997, the
value of the Mexican peso has depreciated slightly (1%) since the end of 1996.
In 1997, generally accepted accounting principles will require that the U.S.
dollar be used as the functional currency of the Company's Mexican subsidiary
for U.S. reporting purposes. This change will cause devaluations in the peso
during 1997 affecting the Company's investment in Mexico to be charged to
exchange loss rather than to the cumulative adjustment account.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's revenues are collected in cash, primarily through box office
receipts and the sale of concession items. Because its revenues are received in
cash prior to the payment of related expenses, the Company has an operating
"float" and, as a result, historically has not required traditional working
capital financing. Primarily due to the lack of significant inventory and
accounts receivable, the Company has typically operated with a negative working
capital position for its ongoing theatre operations. The major film distributors
generally release during the summer and holiday seasons those films which they
anticipate will be the most successful. Consequently, the Company typically
generates higher revenues during such periods. The Company's cash flow from
operations was $58.8 million in 1996 compared to $36.1 million in 1995 and $32.7
million in 1994.

The Company's theatres are typically equipped with modern projection and
sound equipment, with approximately 65% of the screens operated by the Company
having been built in the 1990's. Maintenance capital expenditures for all
theatres operated by the Company for 1996 were $6.0 million or approximately
1.8% of revenues. The Company believes that future annual maintenance capital
expenditures will not significantly change as a percentage of revenues. The
Company's investing activities have been principally in connection with new
theatre openings and acquisitions of existing theatres and theatre circuits and
have amounted to $177.4 million, $80.3 million and $62.9 million in 1996, 1995,
and 1994, respectively. New theatre openings and acquisitions historically have
been financed with internally generated cash and by debt financing, including
borrowings under the Company's bank line of credit. Cash flow from financing
activities amounted to $119.7 million, $32 million and $13.3 million in 1996,
1995, and 1994, respectively. During 1996, the Company opened 17 theatres (237
screens) in the U.S. and Mexico. In addition, as of March 27, 1997, the Company
expects to open 17 theatres (219 screens) in the U.S. during 1997 of which it
has already opened 4 theatres (43 screens) and has 9 theatres (134 screens)
under construction, with another 4 theatres (42 screens) scheduled to begin
construction within the next 90 days. Certain of these theatres will be
megaplexes which may cost in excess of $15 million per theatre. The Company
currently estimates that its capital expenditures for the development of these
screens in 1997 will be approximately $110 million. As of March 27, 1997, the
Company had expended approximately $15.8 million toward the development of these
screens. Actual expenditures for theatre development and acquisitions during
1997 are subject to change based upon the availability of attractive
opportunities for expansion of the Company's theatre circuit.
On August 15, 1996, the Company issued $200 million of Senior Subordinated
Notes due 2008 (the "Subordinated Notes"). The Subordinated Notes bear interest
at the rate of 9-5/8% per annum, payable semi-annually on February 1 and August
1 of each year. The Subordinated Notes were issued at 99.553% of the principal
face amount (a discount of $4.47 per $1,000 principal amount). The net proceeds
to the Company from the issuance of the Subordinated Notes (net of discount,
fees and expenses) were approximately $193.2 million. The proceeds from the
Subordinated Notes were used to repurchase 98.7% of the Company's $125 million
12% Senior Notes due
27
<PAGE>
2002 ("Senior Notes") pursuant to a tender offer which expired on August 15,
1996. The Senior Notes were purchased at a premium of the $1,098.33 (including a
consent fee of $25) per $1,000 principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid
interest up to the date of repurchase. Excess proceeds were utilized to reduce
borrowings under the Company's Credit Facility and for general corporate
purposes.
On December 12, 1996, the Company replaced its existing credit facility
with the Credit Facility through a group of banks for which Bank of America
National Trust and Savings Association acts as Administrative Agent. The Credit
Facility provides for loans to the Company of up to $225.0 million in the
aggregate. The Credit Facility is a reducing revolving credit facility at the
end of each quarter during the calendar year 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2003,
requiring reductions in the aggregate commitment in the amount of $8,437,500,
$11,250,000, $14,062,500 and $22,500,000, respectively. The Company is required
to prepay all loans outstanding in excess of the aggregate commitment as reduced
pursuant to the terms of the Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Credit
Facility are secured by a pledge of a majority of the issued and outstanding
capital stock of the Company. As of March 27, 1997, the Company had borrowed
$105 million under the Credit Facility. Pursuant to the terms of the Credit
Facility, funds borrowed currently bear interest at a rate per annum equal to
the Offshore Rate (as defined in the Credit Facility) or the Base Rate (as
defined in the Credit Facility, as the case may be), plus the Applicable Margin
(as defined in the Credit Facility). As of March 27, 1997, the interest rate was
6.6%.
In 1992, the Company formed Cinemark International to explore theatre
development opportunities outside the United States. As of March 27, 1997, the
Company has contributed $46.0 million to the capital of Cinemark International
to fund theatre development principally in Latin America. Cinemark International
plans to invest up to an additional $50 million in international ventures,
principally in Latin America, over the next two to three years. The Company
anticipates that investments in excess of Cinemark International's available
cash will be funded by the Company or by debt or equity financing to be provided
by third parties directly to Cinemark International or its subsidiaries.
28
<PAGE>
In 1993, the Company incorporated Cinemark de Mexico, S.A. de C.V.
("Cinemark de Mexico") as an indirect subsidiary of Cinemark International to
pursue new development opportunities in Mexico. At March 27, 1997, Cinemark
International owned 95.6% (95.0% on a fully diluted basis including the exercise
of the warrants) of the common stock of Cinemark Mexico. The remaining 4.4% was
owned by a corporation controlled by Mexican citizens. At March 27, 1997, the
Company operated eleven theatres (114 screens) and had three theatres (35
screens) under commitment with executed leases which will begin construction
during the remainder of 1997. In 1993 and 1994, Cinemark Mexico, which is the
direct parent of Cinemark de Mexico, issued $22.4 million principal amount of
12% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2003 (the "Cinemark Mexico Old Notes") with
detachable warrants.
Cinemark International entered into a joint venture agreement in November
1992 with a Chilean theatre operator. Cinemark Chile, S.A. ("Cinemark Chile")
currently operates two theatres (13 screens), and as of March 27, 1997, plans to
begin construction on three theatres (32 screens) during the remainder of 1997.

The joint venture's business is conducted through Cinemark Argentina, S.A.,
which is 50% owned by Cinemark Argentina Holdings, S.A. Cinemark International
owns 50% of Cinemark Argentina Holdings, S.A. Cinemark Argentina plans to open
its first theatre (8 screens) in April 1997 and begin construction on three
theatres (27 screens) during 1997. In January 1997, Cinemark International and
its Chilean partner entered into a joint venture agreement to develop state-of
the-art multiplex theatres in Peru. The joint venture conducts its business
through Cinemark del Peru, S.A., which is 50% owned by Cinemark International
and 50% owned by Cinemark's Chilean partner. Cinemark del Peru, S.A. expects to

will develop modern multiplex theatres in Brazil. Cinemark Brazil plans to open
its first theatre (12 screens) in the second quarter of 1997. Additionally,

Cinemark Mexico Exchange Offer
As of September 30, 1996, Cinemark Mexico had outstanding (i) $22.4
million aggregate principal amount of Cinemark Mexico Notes and (ii) warrants to
purchase 379,073 shares of common stock of the Company (the "Warrants"). On
September 30, 1996, Cinemark Mexico completed the Exchange Offer pursuant to
which Cinemark Mexico and the holders of all of the Cinemark Mexico Notes
exchanged all of the Cinemark Mexico Notes for a new issuance of the New Mexico
Notes. The form and terms of the New Mexico Notes are identical in all material
respects to the Cinemark Mexico Notes except that interest on the New Mexico
Notes may, on each interest payment date from February 1, 1997 through and
including February 1, 2000, be paid at the option of Cinemark Mexico in cash or
through the issuance of additional notes of the same series (the "Additional
Notes"). If the Company elects to pay accrued interest in Additional Notes in
lieu of cash, interest during the relevant interest period shall accrue at the
rate of 13% per annum. Holders of Warrants to purchase 22,222 shares of Common
Stock of Cinemark Mexico elected not to participate in the Exchange Offer. The
purpose of the Exchange Offer was to exchange New Securities for all outstanding
Cinemark Mexico Notes in order to improve Cinemark Mexico's and Cinemark de
Mexico's financial and operating
30
<PAGE>
flexibility. The Company exercised its option to pay Additional
Notes for the interest period ended February 1, 1997.
In connection with the Exchange Offer, the Company obtained the consent of
the holders of the Cinemark Mexico Notes to amend the Indenture. The Company
executed that certain Third Supplemental Indenture dated September 30, 1996 (the
"Third Supplemental Indenture") which, among other things, (i) provided for the
issuance of the New Mexico Notes and the Additional Notes and (ii) amended
certain restrictions relating to financial ratios with which the Company must
comply. The Indenture requires Cinemark Mexico to maintain a Cash Flow Coverage
Ratio (as defined in the Indenture) of 2.0 to 1.0 beginning after December 31,
1999.
Simultaneously with the completion of the Exchange Offer, Cinemark
International acquired an additional 2,661,450 shares of Common Stock of

Facility (the "Mexico Senior Credit Facility"). The Mexico Senior Credit
Facility provides for loans by Cinemark II to Cinemark Mexico of up to $10.0
million in the aggregate at an interest rate of 12% per annum. Any amounts
borrowed by Cinemark Mexico under the Mexico Senior Credit Facility will be
borrowed on a term loan basis. The loans are payable as follows: (i) all accrued
and unpaid interest shall be payable on the first anniversary of the initial
loan and quarterly thereafter on January 15, April 15, July 15 and October 15
and (ii) on December 31, 2001, all unpaid principal, accrued, unpaid interest
and fees on the loan shall be paid. Borrowing under the Mexico Senior Credit
Facility is secured by a pledge of all of the assets of Cinemark Mexico.

International and Cinemark Mexico agreed to amend the terms of the Mexico Senior
Credit Facility. The amendment (i) provides that if Cinemark Mexico exercises
its options to pay accrued and unpaid interest on the New Mexico Notes through
the issuance of Additional Notes, Cinemark will add accrued and unpaid

31

The employment agreements of Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell provide that their

The employment of Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell will be deemed to be constructively

Item 6(c) under Regulation 14A promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended) of the Company, a merger or consolidation of the Company, a
sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or if certain
changes related to their respective status or compensation by the Company occur.
In the event of termination of employment by the Company without cause, Mr. and
Mrs. Mitchell will be entitled to receive the amounts that would otherwise be

agreements.
The employment agreements of Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell further
provide that they will be indemnified against certain liabilities

Businesses Owned by Mr. Mitchell" and "--Cypress Investment."
Stock Options
40
<PAGE>
Employee Stock Option Plan
The Company has established a Nonqualified Stock Option Plan (the "Plan")
under which the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, in his sole discretion,
may grant employees of the Company options to purchase up to an aggregate of
10,685 shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock. The Chief Executive Officer
of the Company has the ability to set the exercise price and the term (of up to
ten years) of the options. All options vest at the rate of one-fifth of the
total options granted per year generally beginning one year from the date of
grant, subject to acceleration by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. An
employee's options are forfeited if the employee is terminated for cause. Upon
termination of an employee's employment with the Company and provided that no
public market exists for any class of common stock of the Company at such time,
the Company has the option to repurchase any shares of capital stock of the
Company that were acquired by the employee pursuant to the Plan at a specified
formula price based on theatre cash flow. As of March 27, 1997, there were
outstanding options to purchase 7,842 shares of the Company's Class B Common
Stock.
In April 1996, employees exercised options to purchase 1,509 shares of
Class B Common Stock of the Company. The Company incurred compensation expense
of $1.8 million resulting from the payment of a cash bonus to key employees to
reimburse them for the taxes due upon the exercise of nonqualified stock
options. The Company received a current tax benefit equal to the total cash
bonus paid, as a result of being allowed a tax deduction for the value of the
bonus and the difference between the value and exercise price of the
nonqualified options. For GAAP purposes, the Company will recognize the tax
benefit for the deduction arising from the differences in value between the
option and its exercise price as additional paid-in capital(rather than as a
reduction of tax expense).
Independent Director Stock Options
The Company has granted the unaffiliated directors of the Company options
to purchase up to an aggregate of 900 shares of the Company's Class B Common
Stock at an exercise price of $833.34 per share (the "Director Options").
Effective April 1995, the Company amended the Director Options to reduce the
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Director
Options from 900 to 600 shares and to reduce the exercise price of the Director
Options from $833.34 per share to $1.00 per share. The
41
<PAGE>
options vest on June 1, 1997, subject to acceleration in certain circumstances.
The options expire ten years from the date of grant. A director's options are
forfeited if the director resigns or is removed from the Board of Directors of
the Company.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
In January 1995, the Board of Directors established a Compensation
Committee of the Board to study senior management compensation and make
recommendations to the Board of Directors as a whole relating to said
compensation. Messrs. Stock, Stein, Anderson, Guerra and Singleton currently
serve as members of the Compensation Committee, with Mr. Stock being the only
member who is an officer or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
Item 12: Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and
Management.
The following table and the accompanying footnotes set forth, as of March
27, 1997, the beneficial ownership of the Company's Common Stock by (i) each
person who is known to the Company to own beneficially more than 5% of either
class of its outstanding Common Stock, (ii) each director and named executive
officer, and (iii) all officers and directors as a group:

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Cinemark USA, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Cinemark
USA, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and 1996, and the related
consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity and cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Cinemark USA, Inc. and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and 1996, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
At January 1, 1996, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of," as discussed in Note 1.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the
basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental
schedules of certain consolidating information listed in the index on page F-1
are presented for the purpose of additional analysis of the basic consolidated
financial statements rather than to present the financial position, results of
operations and cash flows of the individual companies, and are not a required
part of the basic consolidated financial statements. These schedules are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Such schedules have been subjected
to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the basic consolidated
financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material
respects when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial
statements taken as a whole.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Business - Cinemark USA, Inc. (the Company) and its subsidiaries own or
lease and operate motion picture theatres in 29 states and in Mexico at December
31, 1996. The following summarizes theatre transactions during 1994, 1995 and
1996:

</TABLE>
At December 31, 1996, the Company also manages three theatres (37 screens)
for Movie Theatre Investors, Ltd.; one theatre (17 screens) for Cinemark
Partners II; and two theatres (24 screens) for Cinemark Theatres Alberta, Inc.,
a Canadian corporation, all related parties (Notes 11 and 12).
Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Cinemark USA,
Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, which include Cinemark International,
Inc. (f/k/a Cinemark II, Inc.) and ENT Holdings, Inc. Cinemark International,
Inc. ("Cinemark International") owns 97.1% of Cinemark Mexico (USA), Inc.
(Cinemark Mexico), which owns 99.9% of Cinemark de Mexico S.A. de C.V. (Cinemark
de Mexico), a Mexican corporation. Cinemark de Mexico includes the operations of
Cinemark del Norte S.A. de C.V. and Servicio Cinemark S.A. de C.V. Cinemark
International owns 100% of Cinemark Empreendimentos e Participacoes, LTDA, a
Brazilian corporation, whose subsidiary will operate in Brazil beginning in
1997. Cinemark International also owns 50% interests in affiliates operating in
Chile, Canada, Argentina and Peru and a 60% interest in an affiliate operating
in Ecuador. ENT Holdings, Inc. ("ENT") owns 100% of Funtime Entertainment, Inc.
The consolidated financial statements also include 2 Day Video, Inc. (2 Day) and
subsidiary, a video rental "superstore" chain through the date of its sale in
October 1996, Entertainment Amusements, Inc., a 50%-owned holding company whose
subsidiary provides video game machines to many of the Company's theatres, and a
50% interest in Brainerd, Ltd, a theatre joint venture. Majority-owned companies
are consolidated; 50% owned companies and minority investments are accounted for
under the equity method (Note 12). The results of all of these subsidiaries and
affiliates are included in the financial statements effective with their
formation or from their dates of acquisition. Significant intercompany balances
and transactions are eliminated in the consolidation.
Basis of Presentation - In preparing the financial statements, management
is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and
revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly
from those estimates. The estimates most susceptible to significant change are
those used in determining the valuation of certain accrued liabilities
<PAGE>
CINEMARK USA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (Continued)
and the valuation of the investments in operations located in foreign countries.
Although some variability is inherent in these estimates, management believes
the amounts provided are adequate. The devaluation of the Mexican peso and the
resultant economic uncertainties in Mexico create certain business risks for the
Company's investment in Mexico.
Revenues are recognized when admissions and concessions sales are received
at the theatres. Film rental costs are accrued based on the applicable box
office receipts and the terms of the film licenses.
Cash and Cash Equivalents consist of operating funds held in financial
institutions, petty cash held by the theatres and highly liquid investments with
original maturities of three months or less when purchased.
Temporary Cash Investments consist primarily of time deposits and
government securities which are classified as available for sale and are stated
at amortized cost which approximates market.
Inventories of concession products are stated at the lower of cost
(first-in, first-out method) or market.
Theatre Properties and Equipment are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation and amortization. Property additions include $1,745,721 and
$3,928,454 of interest incurred during development and construction and
capitalized in 1995 and 1996, respectively. Depreciation is provided using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
buildings - 18 to 40 years, theatre furniture and equipment - 5 to 15 years.
Leasehold interests and improvements are amortized using the straight-line
method over the lesser of the lease period or the estimated useful lives of the
leasehold improvements. On January 1, 1996, the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of." The adoption of
SFAS No. 121 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial
statements. During the third quarter of 1996 the Company determined that an
impairment charge of $2,381,998 was required for certain theatres.
Intangible Assets represent primarily the excess of cost over the fair
values of the net assets of theatre businesses acquired, less accumulated
amortization ($8,853,793 and $8,616,821 at December 31, 1995 and 1996,
respectively). For financial reporting purposes, these goodwill amounts are
being amortized primarily over 10 to 20 years, which approximate the remaining
lease terms of the businesses acquired.
Deferred Charges and Other Assets, as applicable, are amortized using the
straight-line method over the primary financing terms ended June 2000 to August
2003 for debt issue costs and over the three to eight year terms of the
noncompete agreements.
Deferred Income Taxes are provided under the liability method for
temporary differences between revenue and expenses that are recognized for tax
return and financial reporting purposes.
Earnings Per Share are computed using the weighted average number of
shares of Class A common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during
each period, including, when applicable, the Class B common shares and options
for Class B common shares (Note 7).
<PAGE>
CINEMARK USA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (Continued)
Fair Values of Financial Instruments are estimated by the Company using
available market information and other valuation methodologies in accordance
with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 107, "Disclosures
About Fair Value of Financial Instruments." The estimated fair value amounts for
specific groups
of financial instruments are presented in Note 5. Values are based on available
market quotes or estimates using a discounted cash flow approach based on the
interest rates currently available for similar debt. The fair value of financial
instruments for which estimated fair value amounts are not specifically
presented are estimated to approximate the related recorded value.
Reclassifications have been made to certain 1994 and 1995 amounts to
conform to 1996 presentation.
2. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
The cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment in shareholders'
equity of $10,539,398 and $11,129,451 at December 31, 1995 and 1996,
respectively, primarily relates to the unrealized adjustments resulting from
translating the financial statements of Cinemark de Mexico. The functional
currency of Cinemark de Mexico is the peso. Accordingly, assets and liabilities
of Cinemark de Mexico are translated to U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates.
Income and expense items are translated at the average rates prevailing during
the year. Changes in exchange rates which affect cash flows and the related
payables are recognized as realized transaction gains and losses in the
determination of net income. At December 31, 1996, the total assets of Cinemark
de Mexico were $33,357,719. The Company's other consolidated foreign
subsidiaries were in the development stage and had insignificant translation
adjustments. In 1997, the Company will be required to utilize the U.S. dollar as
the functional currency of Cinemark de Mexico for U.S. reporting purposes due to
Mexico's highly inflationary economy. Thus devaluations in the peso during 1997
that will affect the Company's investment will be charged to exchange loss
rather than to the cumulative adjustment account.
3. ACQUISITIONS AND INVESTMENT ACTIVITY
In September 1996, Cinemark Holdings Canada, Inc., a 100% subsidiary of
Cinemark International and 50% owner of Cinemark Theatres Alberta, Inc.,
contributed an additional $400,000 to assist in funding the construction of an
additional 12 screen theatre in Alberta, Canada. The other 50% owner of Cinemark
Theatres Alberta, Inc. contributed an equal amount.
Cinemark International acquired an additional 2,661,450 shares of common
stock of Cinemark Mexico for $10.0 million for a cumulative interest of 97.1%
(96.5% on a fully diluted basis). Cinemark International sold its 50%
partnership interest in Beaumont Cinema Ventures, Ltd., which operated two
theatres in Texas, for $781,300, resulting in a gain of $547,750 in September
1996. Cinemark International also contributed funding of $1,200,000 to its 100%
owned Brazilian subsidiary, $600,000 to its Argentine affiliate, and $100,000 to
its Peruvian affiliate.
<PAGE>
CINEMARK USA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (Continued)
In May 1995, ENT sold its 50% ownership in Funtime International, Inc., an
international pizza and video arcade restaurant developer, to the other
shareholders of Funtime International, Inc. In connection with this sale, a
$2,000,000 note and related interest due to ENT were canceled; a $500,000 note
payable by ENT was canceled; and Funtime International, Inc. paid $800,000 cash
and issued notes payable of $200,000 and $600,000 to ENT. Also in connection
with the sale, ENT granted Funtime International, Inc. a 12-month option to
purchase the assets of the Company's remaining Funtime Pizza restaurant and
other related equipment for $400,000. As a result of this transaction, ENT
incurred a loss of approximately $294,000. In May 1996, Funtime International
exercised this option, issuing a note payable to ENT from Entertainment
Technologies, Inc. (parent company of Funtime International) for $400,000; this
resulted in a gain of $48,464 for ENT.
In 1994 and 1995, the Company wrote off as amortization expense $1,507,217
and $323,249, respectively, of goodwill and $351,361 and $92,389, respectively,
of noncompete agreements related to the closing of certain Funtime Pizza
restaurants acquired in 1992. In October 1996, the Company invested $571,633 in
Brainerd, Ltd., a limited partnership, which will own and operate a theatre.
In August 1995, Cinemark Inversiones, Inc., a 100%-owned subsidiary of
Cinemark International and 50% owner of Cinemark Chile, contributed an
additional $500,000 to Cinemark Chile to fund theatre construction.
The other 50% owner of Cinemark Chile contributed an equal amount.
In October 1996, the Company sold its entire interest in 2 Day (Class A
common stock) for cash of $9,439,466 and a receivable of $633,288, resulting in
a gain of $7 million.

=========================== ===========================
</TABLE>
Senior Notes - In June 1992, the Company completed a public offering of
$125,000,000 senior notes payable ("Senior Notes"). The Senior Notes bear
interest at the rate of 12% per annum, payable semiannually on June 1 and
December 1 of each year. In August 1996, the Company utilized proceeds from a
$200 million issuance of Senior Subordinated Notes, due 2008, to repurchase
$123,370,000 of the Senior Notes at a premium of $1,098.33 per $1,000.00
principal amount. This resulted in a net outstanding balance of $1,630,000 in
Senior Notes at December 31, 1996. An extraordinary loss of $9.0 million, net of
related tax benefit, was recognized in connection with the premium paid and the
write-off of the unamortized debt issue costs ($2,463,560) associated with the
repurchased Senior Notes (Notes 4). The remaining Senior Notes are redeemable at
the option of the Company, in whole or in part, beginning June 1, 1997, ranging
in redemption price from 106% in 1997 to 100% in 2000 and thereafter.
Senior Subordinated Notes - In August 1996, the Company issued
$200,000,000 of Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008 (the "Subordinated Notes").
The Subordinated Notes bear interest at the rate of 9-5/8% per annum, payable
semi-annually on February 1 and August 1 of each year. The Subordinated Notes
were issued at 99.553% of the principal face amount (a discount of $4.47 per
$1,000 principal amount) for an aggregate discount of $894,000. The net proceeds
to the Company from the issuance of the Subordinated Notes (net of
<PAGE>

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (Continued)
discount, fees and expenses) were approximately $193.2 million. The Subordinated
Notes require the Company to maintain a specified interest expense coverage
ratio; restricts the payment of dividends, payment of subordinated debt prior to
maturity and issuance of preferred stock and other indebtedness; and other
restrictive covenants. The Subordinated Notes are redeemable at the option of
the Company, beginning August 2001, ranging in redemption price from 104.8% in
2001 to 100% in 2003 and thereafter. Any outstanding Subordinated Note are due
August 1, 2008.
Senior Subordinated Notes, Mexico - In 1993, Cinemark Mexico issued
$20,400,000 of 12% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2003 (the "Mexican Subordinated
Notes") with detachable warrants (the Warrants) (Note 8). Cinemark de Mexico
guarantees the notes on a senior subordinated basis. The Mexican Subordinated
Notes were issued at a discount of $102.94 per $1,000 note, totaling $2,100,000,
and bear interest at 12% per annum payable semiannually on August 1 and February
1. In 1994, Cinemark Mexico issued an additional $2,000,000 of Mexican
Subordinated Notes due 2003 with the terms governed by the indenture from the
initial
offering of Mexican Subordinated Notes. These notes were issued at a discount of
$55 per $1,000 note, totaling $110,000, and bear interest at 12% per annum
payable semiannually on August 1 and February 1.
The entire $22,400,000 in Mexican Subordinated Notes and $1,971,500 of
accrued interest were exchanged in September 1996 for new senior subordinated
notes (the "New Mexican Notes"). The form and terms are identical in all
material respects to the previous notes except that interest on the New Mexican
Notes may be paid through the issuance of additional notes of the same series at
the option of Cinemark Mexico through and including February 1, 2000. If the
Company elects to pay accrued interest in the form of additional notes, interest
will accrue at 13% during that period. In connection with the exchange, Warrants
(Note 8) for 356,851 shares of common stock were exchanged for $1,339,400 in New
Mexican Notes. As a result of the note exchange and retirement of the Warrants,
a net benefit of $.8 million, including tax benefit, was credited to additional
paid in capital.
The indenture for the New Mexican Notes requires a sinking fund payment of
$6,667,000 on each of August 1, 2001, and August 1, 2002; the amounts are to be
utilized on such respective dates to retire a like face amount of the
outstanding New Mexican Notes. The indenture governing the New Mexican Notes
restricts the ability of Cinemark Mexico and Cinemark de Mexico to, among other
things, pay dividends; make investments; incur additional indebtedness; redeem
stock; use proceeds of asset disposals; create liens; engage in transactions
with affiliates; and to merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all the
assets of the companies.
Reducing, Revolving Credit Facility - In December 1996, the Company
amended its revolving credit line with a reducing, revolving credit facility
(the "Credit Facility") with a group of banks. The Credit Facility provides for
loans of up to $225,000,000 in the aggregate and bears interest at a defined
floating rate, adjusted in accordance with certain financial ratios. The
weighted average interest rate and current interest rate at December 31, 1996,
was 6.75% and 6.53%, respectively.
The Credit Facility is a reducing revolving credit facility, with
commitments automatically reduced each calendar quarter by $8,437,500,
$11,250,000, $14,062,500 and $22,500,000 in calendar year 2000, 2001, 2002 and
2003, respectively. The Company is required to prepay all loans outstanding in
excess of the aggregate commitment as reduced pursuant to the terms of the
Credit Facility. Borrowings are secured by a pledge of a majority of the issued
and outstanding capital stock of the Company, and the credit agreement requires
that the Company maintains certain financial ratios; restricts the payment of
dividends, payment of subordinated debt
<PAGE>
CINEMARK USA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (Continued)
prior to maturity and issuance of preferred stock and other indebtedness; and
other restrictive covenants. This credit facility amended a new revolving credit
line of $175,000,000 that the Company had entered into on February 1996. The
$175,000,000 credit facility replaced the Company's previous credit facility. An
extraordinary loss of $.4 million, net of related tax benefit, was recognized in
connection with the write-off of debt issue costs related to the Company's
previous credit facility.
Long-term debt at December 31, 1996, matures as follows: $652,313 in 1997;
$6,126 in 1998; $5,895 in 1999; $3,477 in 2000; $6,670,880 in 2001; and
$289,867,264 thereafter.
The estimated fair value of the Company's long-term debt of $296.6 million
at December 31, 1996, was approximately $300.5 million. Such amounts do not
include prepayment penalties which would be incurred upon the early
extinguishment of certain debt issues.
Debt Issue Costs - Debt issue costs of $6,149,523 and $9,741,136, net of
accumulated amortization of $2,010,268 and $2,664,766, related to the
Subordinated Notes, the New Mexican Notes and the Reducing, Revolving Credit
Facility, are included in deferred charges at December 31, 1995 and 1996,
respectively. The 1996 period includes an extraordinary loss recognized in
connection with the writeoff of debt issue costs relating to the Company's prior
bank line of credit and repurchase of Senior Notes.
Theatre Development Advance - The current portion of long-term liabilities
also includes $350,000 at December 31, 1995 and 1996, for the estimated amount
to be payable in the following year on a theatre development advance. The
remaining long-term portion of this advance of $769,657 at December 31, 1996,
will be repayable based on the future operations of a theatre opened in 1992.

voting rights. Class B common shareholders have no voting rights except upon any
proposed amendments to the articles of incorporation. However they may convert
at their option to Class A common stock. In the event of any

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (Continued)
liquidation, the Class A and Class B shareholders will be entitled to their pro
rata share of assets remaining after any preferred shareholders have received
their preferential amounts based on their respective shares held.
In February 1996, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement
(the "Purchase Agreement") pursuant to which the Company issued to Cypress
Merchant Banking Partners L.P. and Cypress Pictures Ltd. (collectively,
"Cypress") an aggregate 23,893 shares of Class B Common Stock for an aggregate
purchase price of $41.0 million. As part of the Purchase Agreement, existing
shareholders sold an additional 58,655 of Class B Common Stock, including 1,500
shares of Class A Common stock that were exchanged for Class B Common Stock, to
Cypress for a total purchase price of approximately $98.2 million. The closing
of the issuance and sale of common stock of the Company to Cypress occurred in
March 1996. The net proceeds from the issuance of stock by the Company were
$38,567,063.
At December 31, 1996, the Company has reserved Class A common stock in the
amount of 178,211 shares for potential conversions of outstanding Class B common
stock and 8,442 shares for potential conversions of Class B common stock
issuable under the stock option plan. The Company has 1,000,000 shares of
preferred stock, $1.00 par value, authorized with none issued or outstanding.
Stock Option Plan - Under terms of the Company's stock option plan,
nonquailifed options to purchase up to 10,685 shares of the Company's Class B
common stock may be granted to key employees. At January 1, 1994, 7,608 options
with an exercise price of $1.00 per share were outstanding.
The total options granted in 1994, 1995 and 1996 were 896, 1,381 and 600
shares, respectively, of the Class B common stock at an exercise price of $1.00
per share. All options vest and are exercisable over a period of five years from
the date of grant and expire ten years from date of grant. During 1996, 2213
vested options were exercised and an additional 430 options were forfeited,
accounting for a reduction of 1996 compensation expense of $64,472. At December
31, 1996, 6,110 options were exercisable out of a total of 7,842 outstanding.
Independent Director Stock Options - In 1993, the Company granted the
unaffiliated directors of the Company options to purchase up to an aggregate of
900 shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock at an exercise price of $833.34
per share (the "Director Options"). In 1995, the Company amended the Director
Options to reduce the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable
pursuant to the Director Options from 900 to 600 shares and to reduce the
exercise price of the Director Options from $833.34 per share to $1.00 per
share. The options vest on June 1, 1997, subject to acceleration in certain
circumstances. The options expire ten years from the date of grant. A director's
options are forfeited if the director resigns or is removed from the Board of
Directors of the Company. Compensation expense of $414,000 was immediately
recognized upon this exchange, with unearned compensation expense of $276,000 to
be recognized over the remaining vesting period of 15 months.
The excess of the estimated fair market value of the stock at the dates of
the grant over the exercise price of the options are accounted for as additional
paid-in capital and as unearned compensation, which is amortized to operations
over the vesting period. As a result of the above grants unearned compensation
of $1,120,000, $2,278,150 and $1,127,117 was recorded in 1994, 1995 and 1996,
respectively. Compensation expense under this stock option plan was $836,081,
$1,591,022 and $1,324,856 in 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively.

option plan and Cinemark Mexico's stock option plan, as described below. Had
compensation costs for the Company's stock option plan been determined based on
the fair value at the date of grant for awards under the plan consistent with
the method of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123,
utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model, the effect on income and
earnings per share would not have changed from the amounts presented in the
financial statements. The results are substantially the same pursuant to SFAS
No. 123 as a result of the value of the underlying stock at the date of grant
being significantly higher than the exercise price of the options.
In November 1996, the Company repurchased 174 shares of Class B common
stock as treasury stock.

The first certificate to be delivered pursuant to
this Section 4.03(a) shall be for the first fiscal
quarter beginning after the execution of this
Indenture.

forth the details of such Default or Event of
Default, and the action that the Company proposes to
take with respect thereto."

SECTION 2
THE CREDITS
2.1 Amounts and Terms of Commitments. Each Bank
40
<PAGE>
severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make
Loans from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing
Date to the Maturity Date, in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time
outstanding the amount set forth opposite such Bank's name in Schedule 2.1 under
the heading "Commitment" (such amount as the same may be reduced pursuant to
Section 2.6 or 2.8 or as a result of one or more assignments pursuant to Section
10.8, such Bank's "Commitment"); provided, however, that, after giving effect to
any Borrowing of Loans, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Loans
shall not at any time exceed the Aggregate Commitment; provided, further, that
the aggregate principal amount of the Loans of any Bank shall not at any time
exceed such Bank's Commitment. Within the limits of each Bank's Commitment, and
subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Company may borrow under
this Section 2.1, prepay pursuant to Section 2.7 and reborrow pursuant to this
Section 2.1.
2.2 Loan Accounts and Notes. (a) Subject to Section 2.2(b), the Loans
made by each Bank and the fees due hereunder shall be evidenced by one or more
loan accounts or records maintained by such Bank in the ordinary course of
business. The loan accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent
and each Bank shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the
Loans made by the Banks to the Company and the interest and payments thereon and
fees due hereunder. Any failure so to record or any error in doing so shall not,
however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Company hereunder to
pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans or such fees.
(b) Upon the request of any Bank made through the Administrative
Agent, the Loans made by such Bank may be evidenced by one or more Notes,
instead of loan accounts. Each such Bank may endorse on the schedules annexed to
its Note(s), the date, amount and maturity of each Loan made by it and the
amount of each payment of principal made by the Company with respect thereto.
Each such Bank is irrevocably authorized by the Company to endorse its Note(s)
and each Bank's record shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided,
however, that the failure of a Bank to make, or an error in making, a notation
thereon with respect to any Loan shall not limit or otherwise affect the
obligations of the Company hereunder or under any such Note to such Bank.

<PAGE>
2.3 Procedure for Borrowing.
(a) Each Borrowing shall be made upon irrevocable written notice
in the form of a Notice of Borrowing, which notice must be received by the
Administrative Agent prior to 9:00 a.m. (San Francisco time) (i) three Business
Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Offshore Rate Loans;
and (ii) one Business Day prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of
Base Rate Loans, specifying: (i) the amount of the Borrowing, which, in the case
of a borrowing of Offshore Rate Loans, shall be in an aggregate minimum
principal amount of $3,000,000 and any multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof,
and in the case of a borrowing of Base Rate Loans, shall be in an aggregate
minimum principal amount of $1,000,000 and any multiple of $200,000 in excess
thereof; (ii) the requested Borrowing Date, which shall be a Business Day; (iii)
whether the Borrowing is to be comprised of Offshore Rate Loans, Base Rate Loans
or any combination thereof; and (iv) the duration of the Interest Period
applicable to Offshore Rate Loans included in such notice. If the Notice of
Borrowing shall fail to specify the duration of the Interest Period for any
Borrowing comprised of Offshore Rate Loans, such Interest Period shall be one
month; provided, however, that with respect to the Borrowing to be made on the
Closing Date, the Notice of Borrowing shall be delivered to the Administrative
Agent not later than 9:00 a.m. (San Francisco time) one Business Day before the
Closing Date and such Borrowing will consist of Base Rate Loans only; provided,
further, that if so requested by the Administrative Agent, all Borrowings during
the first 60 days following the Closing Date shall have the same Interest Period
and shall be Base Rate or Offshore Rate Loans for Interest Periods no longer
than one month.
(b) Promptly after receipt of a Notice of
Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Bank of the
proposed Borrowing. Each Bank shall make available to the
Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of the amount (if any) by
which the principal amount of the proposed Borrowing exceeds the
principal amount of the Loans (if any) being converted or
continued on the Borrowing Date, in immediately available funds,
by remitting such funds to: Bank of America National Trust and
Savings Association, ABA No. 121-000-358, Attn: Agency
Administrative Services #5596 For credit to: BANCONTROL Account
No. 12332-14226, Reference: Cinemark USA, Inc., no later than
42
<PAGE>
11:00 a.m. (San Francisco time) on the Borrowing Date. Upon satisfaction of the
conditions set forth in Section 4.2, the Administrative Agent shall make
available to the Company in like funds on such Borrowing Date the aggregate of
the amounts (if any) so made available by the Banks by causing an amount equal
to such aggregate amount (if any) received by the Administrative Agent to be
credited to the account of the Company as specified by the Company in writing.
If the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 are not satisfied, the Administrative
Agent shall promptly return such funds to the Banks making the same available.
(c) Unless the Majority Banks shall otherwise agree, during the
existence of an Event of Default, the Company may not elect to have a Loan be
made as an Offshore Rate Loan.
2.4 Conversion and Continuation Elections.
(a) The Company may (i) elect to convert on any Business Day, any
Base Rate Loans (or any part thereof in an amount not less than $3,000,000 or an
integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof) into Offshore Rate Loans; (ii)
elect to convert on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, any Offshore
Rate Loans (or any part thereof in an amount not less than $1,000,000 or an
integral multiple of $200,000 in excess thereof) into Base Rate Loans; or (iii)
elect to continue, on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, any Offshore
Rate Loans (or any part thereof in an amount not less than $3,000,000 or an
integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof); provided, that if the
aggregate amount of Offshore Rate Loans shall have been reduced, by payment,
prepayment, or conversion of part thereof to be less than $3,000,000, Offshore
Rate Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans.
(b) Each conversion or continuation shall be made upon
irrevocable written notice in the form of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation,
which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 9:00 a.m.
(San Francisco time) (i) three Business Days in advance of the Conversion Date,
if the Loans are to be converted into or continued as Offshore Rate Loans; and
(ii) one Business Day prior to the Conversion Date, if the Loans are to be
converted into Base Rate Loans, in each case specifying: (A) the proposed
Conversion Date; (B) the aggregate
43
<PAGE>
amount of Loans to be converted or continued; (C) the nature of the proposed
conversion or continuation; and (D) the duration of the requested Interest
Period.
(c) If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to
Offshore Rate Loans, the Company has failed to select a new Interest Period to
be applicable thereto, or if any Event of Default shall then exist, the Company
shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Offshore Rate Loans into Base
Rate Loans effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period.
(d) Upon receipt of a Notice of Conversion/ Continuation, the
Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Bank thereof, or, if no timely
notice is provided by the Company, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify
each Bank of the details of any automatic conversion. All conversions and
continuations shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding
principal amounts of the Loans with respect to which the notice was given held
by each Bank.
(e) Unless the Majority Banks shall otherwise agree, during the
existence of an Event of Default, the Company may not elect to have a Loan
converted into or continued as an Offshore Rate Loan.
2.5 Limitation on Interest Periods. Notwithstanding any other
provision contained in this Agreement, after giving effect to any Borrowing or
conversion or continuation of any Loans, there shall not be more than 15
different Interest Periods for Loans in effect without the consent of the
Administrative Agent and the Majority Banks.
2.6 Voluntary Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The Company
may, upon not less than one Business Day's prior written notice to the
Administrative Agent, terminate the Aggregate Commitment or permanently reduce
the Aggregate Commitment by an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 or any
multiple thereof; provided that no such reduction or termination shall be
permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Loans
made on the effective date thereof, the then outstanding principal amount of the
Loans would exceed the Aggregate Commitment then in effect and, provided,
further, that
44
<PAGE>
once reduced in accordance with this Section 2.6, the Aggregate Commitment may
not be increased. Any reduction of the Aggregate Commitment shall be applied to
each Bank's Commitment in accordance with such Bank's Pro Rata Share. All
accrued commitment fees to, but not including the effective date of any
termination of Commitments, shall be paid on the effective date of such
termination. Any voluntary reduction of the Commitment under this Section shall
be applied to reduce the Reduction Amount for the next following Reduction Date
(to the extent of such reduction) and thereafter to subsequent Reduction Dates
(to the extent not previously applied) in the order of their occurrence.
2.7 Optional Prepayments. Subject to Section 3.4, the Company may, at
any time or from time to time, upon written notice, which notice must be
received by the Administrative Agent at least (a) three Business Days prior to
any prepayment of Offshore Rate Loans; and (b) on the Business Day of the
prepayment of any Base Rate Loans, ratably prepay Loans in whole or in part, in
amounts of (i) with respect to Offshore Rate Loans, $500,000 or any multiple
thereof in excess thereof, and (ii) with respect to Base Rate Loans, $200,000 or
any multiple thereof in excess thereof. Such notice of prepayment shall specify
the date and amount of such prepayment and whether such prepayment is of Base
Rate Loans or Offshore Rate Loans, or any combination thereof. Such notice shall
not thereafter be revocable by the Company, and the Administrative Agent will
promptly notify each Bank of such Bank's Pro Rata Share of such prepayment. If
such notice is given by the Company, the Company shall make such prepayment and
the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date
specified therein, together with accrued interest in the case of Offshore Rate
Loans to each such date on the amount prepaid and any amounts required pursuant
to Section 3.4.
2.8 Mandatory Prepayments of Loans; Mandatory
Commitment Reductions.
(a) Asset Dispositions. If the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries shall at any time or from time to time make or agree to make a
Disposition other than an Excluded Disposition, then (i) the Company shall
promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such proposed Disposition (including
a
45
<PAGE>
calculation of the amount of the estimated Net Proceeds to be received by the
Company in respect thereof) and (ii) to the extent the Net Proceeds of such
Disposition are not used in a Covered Acquisition ("Excess Net Proceeds"), such
Excess Net Proceeds shall be used to prepay the Loans in an amount equal to such
Excess Net Proceeds. Any prepayments required to be made pursuant to this
Section 2.8(a) shall be made on the 361st day in accordance with the definition
of Covered Acquisition, after the date of such Disposition.
(b) Automatic Reduction of Commitment. Subject
to the last sentence of Section 2.6, on each Reduction Date, the
Aggregate Commitment shall automatically be reduced by the
applicable Reduction Amount.
(c) Mandatory Prepayments from Commitment Reductions. The Company
shall prepay all Loans outstanding in excess of the Commitments as from time to
time reduced pursuant to Section 2.6 or 2.8.
(d) General. Any prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.8 shall
be applied first to any Base Rate Loans then outstanding and then to Offshore
Rate Loans with the shortest Interest Periods remaining.
(e) Reduction of Commitments. Upon the making of any mandatory
prepayment under this Section 2.8, the Commitment of each Bank shall
automatically be reduced by an amount equal to such Bank's Pro Rata Share of the
Required Prepayment Amount, effective as of the earlier of the date that any
such prepayment is made or the date by which any such prepayment is due and
payable hereunder. The amount of such Commitment reduction shall be applied to
the reductions of the Aggregate Commitment in the inverse order of their
scheduled occurrence. All accrued commitment fees to, but not including the
effective date of the reduction or termination of Commitments, shall be paid on
the effective date of the reduction or termination. [For purposes of this
Section, "Required Prepayment Amount" means an amount equal to the aggregate
amount by which the Company would be required to prepay the Loans pursuant to
this Section 2.8 if the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding
immediately prior to such prepayment exceeded such prepayment amount.]
46
<PAGE>
2.9 Maturity Date. All principal and accrued and
unpaid interest on all Loans shall be due on the Maturity Date.
2.10 Interest.
(a) Subject to Section 2.10(c) and (d), each Loan shall bear
interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date when made
until it becomes due at a rate per annum equal to the Offshore Rate or the Base
Rate, as the case may be, plus the Applicable Amount.
(b) Interest on each Loan shall be paid in arrears on each
Interest Payment Date. Interest shall also be paid on the date of any prepayment
of Offshore Rate Loans pursuant to Section 2.7 and 2.8 for the portion of the
Loans so prepaid and upon payment (including prepayment) in full thereof and,
during the existence of any Event of Default, interest shall be paid on demand.
(c) Subject to Section 2.10(d), during the continuation of any
Event of Default or after acceleration pursuant to Section 8.2, the Company
shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the
extent permitted by law) on the principal amount of all Obligations due and
unpaid, at a rate per annum which is determined by adding 2% per annum to the
Applicable Amount then in effect for such Loans and, in the case of Obligations
not subject to an Applicable Amount, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate
plus the Applicable Amount plus 2%; provided, however, that, on and after the
expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any Offshore Rate Loan
outstanding on the date of occurrence of such Event of Default or acceleration,
the principal amount of such Loan shall, during the continuation of such Event
of Default or after acceleration, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the
Base Rate plus the Applicable Amount plus 2%.
(d) It is the intention of the parties hereto to comply with
applicable usury laws (now or hereafter enacted); accordingly, notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, any Notes, the other Loan
Documents, or any other document relating hereto, in no event shall this
Agreement or any such other document require the payment or permit the
collection of interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted by such
47
<PAGE>
laws. If for any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision of any
Loan Document shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law
for the collection or charging of interest, then, ipso facto, the obligation to
be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity, and if for any such
circumstances a Bank shall ever receive anything of value as interest or deemed
interest by applicable law under this Agreement, any Notes, the other Loan
Documents, or any other document pertaining hereto or otherwise an amount that
would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount that would be excessive
interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing
hereunder and under any Notes or on account of any other indebtedness of the
Company to the Administrative Agent and the Banks, and not to the payment of
interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal
of such indebtedness, such excess shall be refunded to the Company. In
determining whether or not the interest paid or payable with respect to any
indebtedness of the Company to the Administrative Agent and the Banks, under any
specific contingency, exceeds the highest lawful rate, the Company and the
Administrative Agent and the Banks shall, to the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law, (a) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee or
premium rather than as interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the
effects thereof, (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread the total amount of
interest throughout the term of such indebtedness so that the actual rate of
interest on account of such indebtedness does not exceed the maximum amount
permitted by applicable law, and/or (d) allocate interest between portions of
such indebtedness to the end that no such portion shall bear interest at a rate
greater than that permitted by applicable law.
For purpose of this Section 2.10(d), the term "applicable law" means
the internal laws of the State of New York, but, to the extent, contrary to the
express intent of the parties, New York law is found to be inapplicable to this
Agreement, then "applicable law" also means that law in effect from time to time
and applicable to this loan transaction which lawfully permits the charging and
collection of the highest permissible, lawful, non-usurious rate of interest on
such loan transaction and this Agreement, and, to the extent controlling, laws
of the United States of America. It is intended that, in the event that,
notwithstanding the parties' express choice of
48
<PAGE>
New York law to be applicable to this Agreement, if the laws of the State of
Texas are included in determining applicable law, Chapter One ("Chapter One"),
Title 79, Revised Civil Statutes of Texas, 1925, as amended (the "Texas Credit
Code"), shall be included in any such determination, and that, for the purpose
of applying said Chapter One to this Agreement, the highest lawful rate shall be
the "indicated rate ceiling" (as defined in Chapter One). Any Bank may, from
time to time, as to current and future balances, implement any other ceiling
under Chapter One by notice to the Company, if and to the extent, permitted by
Chapter One. The Company expressly agrees, pursuant to Article 15.10(b) of
Chapter Fifteen ("Chapter Fifteen") of the Texas Credit Code, that Chapter
Fifteen shall not apply to this Agreement or to any Loan and that neither this
Agreement nor any Loan shall be governed by or subject to the provision of
Chapter Fifteen in any manner whatsoever.
2.11 Fees.
(a) Arrangement Fee. The Company shall pay to
BofA for its own account an arrangement fee in an amount and at
the time set forth in a letter dated October 24, 1996.
(b) Commitment Fees. The Company shall pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of each Bank a commitment fee on the average daily unused
portion of such Bank's Commitment, computed on a quarterly basis in arrears on
the last Business Day of each calendar quarter based upon the daily utilization
for that quarter as calculated by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum
specified for the Commitment fee in the definition of Applicable Amount. The
Commitment Fee shall be in effect from the date the most recent certificate
delivered pursuant to Section 4.1(g) or 6.2(a) is received by the Administrative
Agent to but excluding the date the next such certificate is received; provided;
however, that if the Company fails to timely deliver the next such certificate,
the Commitment Fee from the date such certificate was due to but excluding the
date such certificate is received by the Administrative Agent (the "Commitment
Delinquent Period") shall be the higher of (a) the Commitment Fee already in
effect and (b) the Commitment Fee as set forth in such certificate when
received, retroactively applied to the Commitment Delinquent Period. Such
commitment fee shall accrue from the Closing Date to the Maturity and shall be
49
<PAGE>
due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each quarter
commencing December 31, 1996, with the final payment to be made on the Maturity
Date; provided that, in connection with the termination of Commitments pursuant
to Section 2.6 or Section 2.8(a), the accrued commitment fee calculated for the
period ending on such date shall also be paid on the date of the termination.
The commitment fees provided in this Section shall accrue at all times after the
above-mentioned commencement date, including at any time during which one or
more conditions in Section 4 are not met.
(c) Agency Fee. The Company shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the Administrative Agent's own account
an agency fee in the amount and at the times as agreed upon in
writing between the Company and the Administrative Agent.
2.12 Computation of Fees and Interest.
(a) All computations of interest payable in respect of Base Rate
Loans at all times as the Base Rate is determined by BofA's "reference rate"
shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and
actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest under this
Agreement shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed,
which results in more interest being paid than if computed on the basis of a
365-day year. Interest and fees shall accrue during each period during which
interest or such fees are computed from the first day thereof to the last day
thereof.
(b) The Administrative Agent will, with reasonable promptness,
notify the Company and the Banks of each determination of an Offshore Rate;
provided that any failure to do so shall not relieve the Company of any
liability hereunder or provide the basis for any claim against the
Administrative Agent. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a
change in the Applicable Amount or Eurodollar Reserve Percentage shall become
effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change in the
Applicable Amount or Eurodollar Reserve Percentage becomes effective. The
Administrative Agent will with reasonable promptness notify the Company and the
Banks of the effective date and the amount of each such change, provided that
any failure to do so shall not relieve the Company of any liability hereunder or
provide the basis for any claim against
50
<PAGE>
the Administrative Agent.
(c) Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a
change in the Applicable Amount or Eurodollar Reserve Percentage shall become
effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change in the
Applicable Amount or Eurodollar Reserve Percentage becomes effective. Each
determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant hereto
shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and the Banks in the absence of
manifest error.
2.13 Payments by the Company.
(a) All payments of principal, interest and fees hereunder shall
be in immediately available funds and delivered to the Administrative Agent for
credit to:
Bank of America National Trust
and Savings Association
Att: Agency Administrative Services #5596
ABA No. 121-000-358
Bancontrol Account No. 12332-14226
Reference: Cinemark USA, Inc.
not later than 11:00 A.M. (San Francisco time) on the date due; funds received
by the Administrative Agent after that time shall be deemed to have been paid by
the Company on the next succeeding Business Day.
(b) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a
day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding
Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the
computation of interest or fees, as the case may be; subject to the provisions
set forth in the definition of "Interest Period" herein.
(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice
from the Company prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Banks
hereunder that the Company will not make such payment in full as and when
required hereunder, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Company has
made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date in
51
<PAGE>
immediately available funds and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be
so required), in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each
Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and
to the extent the Company shall not have made such payment in full to the
Administrative Agent, each Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent on
demand such amount distributed to such Bank, together with interest thereon for
each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Bank until the date
such Bank repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds
Rate as in effect for each such day.
2.14 Payments by the Banks to the Administrative
Agent.
(a) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice
from a Bank on the Closing Date or, with respect to each Borrowing after the
Closing Date, by 9:30 a.m. (San Francisco time) (i) one Business Day prior to
the date of any proposed Borrowing of Offshore Rate Loans, or (ii) on the date
of any proposed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans that such Bank will not make
available to the Administrative Agent as and when required hereunder for the
account of the Company the amount of that Bank's Pro Rata Share of the
Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that each Bank has made such
amount available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds on
the Borrowing date and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be so
required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Company on
such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent any Bank shall not have
made its full amount available to the Administrative Agent in immediately
available funds and the Administrative Agent in such circumstances has made
available to the Company such amount, that Bank shall on the next Business Day
following the date of such Borrowing make such amount available to the
Administrative Agent, together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate for and
determined as of each day during such period. A notice of the Administrative
Agent submitted to any Bank with respect to amounts owing under this Section
2.14(a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If such amount is so made
available, such payment to the Administrative Agent shall constitute such Bank's
Loan on the date of Borrowing for all purposes of this Agreement. If such amount
is not made available to the Administrative Agent on the next Business Day
following
52
<PAGE>
the date of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company of
such failure to fund and, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, the Company
shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent for the Administrative Agent's
account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of
such Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the
time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing.
(b) The failure of any Bank to make any Loan on any date of
borrowing shall not relieve any other Bank of any obligation hereunder to make a
Loan on the date of such borrowing, but no Bank shall be responsible for the
failure of any other Bank to make the Loan to be made by such other Bank on the
date of any Borrowing.
2.15 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If, other than as expressly provided
elsewhere herein, any Bank shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it any
payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of
set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its Pro Rata Share of payments on account of
the Loans obtained by all the Banks, such Bank shall forthwith (a) notify the
Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Banks such
participations in the Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such
purchasing Bank to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided,
however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter
recovered from the purchasing Bank, such purchase shall to that extent be
rescinded and each other Bank shall repay to the purchasing Bank the purchase
price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Bank's Pro
Rata Share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Bank's
required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing
Bank) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Bank in
respect of the total amount so recovered. The Company agrees that any Bank so
purchasing a participation from another Bank pursuant to this Section 2.15 may,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment
(including the right of set-off, but subject to Section 10.9) with respect to
such participation as fully as if such Bank were the direct creditor of the
Company in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep
records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of
53
<PAGE>
manifest error) of participations purchased pursuant to this Section 2.15 and
will in each case notify the Banks following any such purchases or repayments.
2.16 Security. All obligations of the Company under this Agreement,
any Notes and all other Loan Documents shall be secured in accordance with the
Pledge Agreements.
SECTION 3
TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY
3.1 Taxes.
(a) Subject to Section 3.1(g), any and all payments by the
Company to each Bank or the Administrative Agent under this Agreement shall be
made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any and all
present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings,
and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Bank
and the Administrative Agent, such taxes (including income taxes or franchise
taxes) as are imposed on or measured by each Bank's net income by the
jurisdiction under the laws of which such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as
the case may be, is organized or maintains a Lending Office or any political
subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions,
charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes").
(b) In addition, the Company shall pay any present or future
stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or
similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the
execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this
Agreement or any other Loan Documents (hereinafter referred to as "Other
Taxes").
(c) Subject to Section 3.1(g), the Company shall indemnify and
hold harmless each Bank and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of
Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any
jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 3.1) paid by such Bank or the
54
<PAGE>
Administrative Agent and any liability (including penalties, interest, additions
to tax and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not
such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted, provided that, in
the case of penalties, interest, additions to tax and expenses, such Bank or the
Administrative Agent has timely notified the Company after it has been notified
of its liability for such amounts. Payment under this indemnification shall be
made within 30 days from the date the Bank or the Administrative Agent makes
written demand therefor.
(d) If the Company shall be required by law to deduct or withhold
any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any
Bank or the Administrative Agent, then, subject to Section 3.1(g): (i) the sum
payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required
deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under
this Section 3.1) such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be,
receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such
deductions been made; (ii) the Company shall make such deductions, and (iii) the
Company shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or
other authority in accordance with applicable law.
(e) Within 30 days after the date of any payment by the Company
of Taxes or Other Taxes, the Company shall furnish to the Administrative Agent
the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, or
other evidence of payment satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(f) Each Bank which is a foreign person (i.e., a person other
than a United States person for United States Federal income tax purposes)
agrees that: (i) it shall, no later than the Closing Date (or, in the case of a
Bank which becomes a party hereto pursuant to Section 10.8 after the Closing
Date, the date upon which the Bank becomes a party hereto) deliver to the
Company through the Administrative Agent two accurate and complete signed
originals of Internal Revenue Service Form 4224 or any successor thereto ("Form
4224"), or two accurate and complete signed originals of Internal Revenue
Service Form 1001 or any successor thereto ("Form 1001"), as appropriate, in
each case indicating that the Bank is on the date of delivery thereof entitled
to receive payments of principal, interest and fees
55
<PAGE>
under this Agreement free from withholding of United States Federal income tax;
(ii) if at any time the Bank makes any changes necessitating a new Form 4224 or
Form 1001, it shall with reasonable promptness deliver to the Company through
the Administrative Agent in replacement for, or in addition to, the forms
previously delivered by it hereunder, two accurate and complete signed originals
of Form 4224; or two accurate and complete signed originals of Form 1001, as
appropriate, in each case indicating that the Bank is on the date of delivery
thereof entitled to receive payments of principal, interest and fees under this
Agreement free from withholding of United States Federal income tax; (iii) it
shall, before or promptly after the occurrence of any event (including the
passing of time but excluding any event mentioned in (ii) above) requiring a
change in or renewal of the most recent Form 4224 or Form 1001 previously
delivered by such Bank, deliver to the Company through the Administrative Agent
two accurate and complete original signed copies of Form 4224 or Form 1001 in
replacement for the forms previously delivered by the Bank; and (iv) it shall,
promptly upon the Company's or the Administrative Agent's reasonable request to
that effect, deliver to the Company or the Administrative Agent (as the case may
be) such other forms or similar documentation as may be required from time to
time by any applicable law, treaty, rule or regulation in order to establish
such Bank's tax status for withholding purposes.
(g) The Company will not be required to pay any additional
amounts in respect of United States Federal income tax pursuant to Section
3.1(d) to any Bank for the account of any Lending Office of such Bank or to
indemnify any Bank pursuant to Section 3.1(c): (i) if the obligation to pay such
additional amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Bank to
comply with its obligations under Section 3.1(f) in respect of such Lending
Office; (ii) if such Bank shall have delivered to the Company a Form 4224 in
respect of such Lending Office pursuant to Section 3.1(f), and such Bank at any
time shall not be entitled to exemption from deduction or withholding of United
States Federal income tax in respect of payments by the Company hereunder for
the account of such Lending Office for any reason other than a change in United
States law or regulations or in the official interpretation of such law or
regulations by any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof (whether or not having the force of law)
56
<PAGE>
after the date of delivery of such Form 4224; or (iii) if the Bank shall have
delivered to the Company a Form 1001 in respect of such Lending Office pursuant
to Section 3.1(f), and such Bank at any time shall not be entitled to exemption
from deduction or withholding of United States Federal income tax in respect of
payments by the Company hereunder for the account of such Lending Office for any
reason other than a change in United States law or regulations or any applicable
tax treaty or regulations or in the official interpretation of any such law,
treaty or regulations by any governmental authority charged with the
interpretation or administration thereof (whether or not having the force of
law) after the date of delivery of such Form 1001.
(h) If, at any time, the Company requests any Bank to deliver any
forms or other documentation pursuant to Section 3.1(f)(iv), then the Company
shall, on demand of such Bank through the Administrative Agent, reimburse such
Bank for any costs and expenses (including expenses of outside legal counsel and
the allocated costs of in-house counsel) reasonably incurred by such Bank in the
preparation or delivery of such forms or other documentation.
(i) If the Company is required to pay additional amounts to any
Bank or the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.1(d), then such Bank
shall use its reasonable best efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory
restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office so as to
eliminate any such additional payment by the Company which may thereafter accrue
if such change in the judgment of such Bank is not otherwise disadvantageous to
such Bank.
3.2 Illegality.
(a) If any Bank shall reasonably determine that the introduction
of any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the
interpretation or administration thereof, has made it unlawful, or that any
central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful,
for any Bank or its Lending Office to make Offshore Rate Loans, then, on notice
thereof by the Bank to the Company through the Administrative Agent, the
obligation of that Bank to make Offshore Rate Loans shall be suspended until the
Bank shall have notified the Administrative Agent and the Company that the
57
<PAGE>
circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exists.
(b) If a Bank shall determine that it is unlawful to maintain any
Offshore Rate Loan, the Company shall be deemed to have converted in full all
Offshore Rate Loans of that Bank then outstanding into Base Rate Loans either on
the last day of the Interest Period thereof if the Bank may lawfully continue to
maintain such Offshore Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if the Bank may
not lawfully continue to maintain such Offshore Rate Loans. At the time of
conversion, the Company shall pay all interest accrued thereon, together with
any amounts required to be paid in connection therewith pursuant to Section 3.4.
(c) If the obligation of any Bank to make or maintain Offshore
Rate Loans has been terminated, the Company may elect, by giving notice to the
Bank through the Administrative Agent that all Loans which would otherwise be
made by the Bank as, or converted into, Offshore Rate Loans shall be instead
Base Rate Loans.
(d) Before giving any notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant
to this Section 3.2, the affected Bank shall designate a different Lending
Office with respect to its Offshore Rate Loans if such designation will avoid
the need for giving such notice or making such demand and will not, in the
judgment of the Bank, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to the Bank.
3.3 Increased Costs and Reduction of Return. (a) If any Bank shall
reasonably determine that, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change
in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with
any guideline or request of general applicability from any central bank or other
Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be
any increase in the cost to such Bank of agreeing to make or making, funding or
maintaining any Offshore Rate Loans (except for changes in the rate of tax on
the overall net income of such Bank imposed by the jurisdiction in which such
Bank's principal executive office or Lending Office is located), then the
Company shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, upon demand therefor
by such Bank (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to
such Bank, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate such Bank for such
increased
58
<PAGE>
costs.
(b) If any Bank shall have reasonably determined that the
introduction of any applicable law, rule, regulation or guideline of general
applicability regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein or any change in
the interpretation or administration thereof by any central bank or other
Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration
thereof, or compliance by the Bank (or its Lending Office) or any corporation
controlling the Bank, with any request, guideline or directive of general
applicability regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of
law) of any such central bank or other authority issued after the date hereof,
affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be
maintained by the Bank or any corporation controlling the Bank and (taking into
consideration such Bank's or such corporation's policies with respect to capital
adequacy and such Bank's desired return on capital) determines that the amount
of such Bank's capital is increased as a consequence of its obligations
hereunder, then, upon demand of such Bank, the Company shall immediately pay to
the Bank, from time to time as specified by the Bank, additional amounts
sufficient to compensate the Bank for such increase.
3.4 Funding Losses. The Company agrees to reimburse each Bank and to
hold each Bank harmless from any loss or expense which the Bank may sustain or
incur (excluding the loss of anticipated profits) from the liquidation or
reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain its Offshore Rate Loans
hereunder or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds
were obtained as a consequence of: (a) the failure of the Company to make any
prepayment of principal of any Offshore Rate Loan or to make any payment after
any acceleration thereof; (b) the failure of the Company to borrow or continue
an Offshore Rate Loan or convert a Base Rate Loan to an Offshore Rate Loan after
the Company has given (or is deemed to have given) a Notice of Borrowing or a
Notice of Conversion/ Continuation; (c) the failure of the Company to make any
prepayment of an Offshore Rate Loan after the Company has given a notice in
accordance with Section 2.7; or (d) the prepayment of an Offshore Rate Loan on a
day which is not the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto.
Solely for purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Company to the Banks
under
59
<PAGE>
this Section 3.4, each Offshore Rate Loan made by a Bank (and each related
reserve, special deposit or similar requirement) shall be conclusively deemed to
have been funded at the LIBOR (as defined in the definition of "Offshore Rate")
used in determining the Offshore Rate for such Offshore Rate Loan by a matching
deposit or other borrowing in the interbank eurodollar market for a comparable
amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Offshore Rate Loan is in
fact so funded.
3.5 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Majority Banks shall have
determined that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for
ascertaining the Offshore Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to
a proposed Offshore Rate Loan or if the Majority Banks advise the Administrative
Agent that the Offshore Rate applicable for any requested Interest Period with
respect to a proposed Offshore Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect
the cost to them of funding such Loan, they shall notify the Administrative
Agent who will forthwith give notice of such determination to the Company and
each Bank. Thereafter, the obligation of the Banks to make Offshore Rate Loans
hereunder shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent upon the instruction
of the Majority Banks revokes such notice in writing. Upon receipt of such
notice, the Company may revoke any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/
Continuation then submitted by it. If the Company does not revoke such notice
with respect to Loans, the Banks shall make, convert or continue the Loans, as
proposed by the Company, in the amount specified in the applicable notice
submitted by the Company, but such Loans shall be made, converted or continued
as Base Rate Loans instead of Offshore Rate Loans.
3.6 Survival. The agreements and obligations of the Company in this
Section 3 shall survive the payment of all other Obligations. Any claim or
demand by any Bank for reimbursement or compensation under this Section 3 must
be made in writing; provided, however, that no such claim or demand may be made
in respect of any expense, cost, or economic loss incurred or suffered more than
12 months prior to the date of such claim or demand.

and performance by the Company, of this Agreement and any other Loan Document to
which the Company is party, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate
action, and do not and would not be expected to: (a) contravene the terms of any
of the Company's articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organization
documents; (b) conflict with or result in any breach or contravention of, or the
creation of any Lien under, any document evidencing any Contractual Obligation
to which the Company is a party or any order, injunction, writ or decree of any
Governmental Authority to which the Company or its Property is subject; or (c)
violate any Requirement of Law.
5.3 Governmental Authorization. No approval, consent, exemption,
authorization, or other action by, or notice to, or filing with, any
Governmental Authority is necessary or required in connection with the
execution, delivery or performance by, or enforcement against, the Company of
the Agreement or any other Loan Document or, prior to the consummation of the

<PAGE>

to perfect, continue or enforce the security interests in the Collateral
thereunder, (b) routine corporate filings to maintain the corporate good
standing of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, and (c) with respect to
the Recapitalization Agreements, such approvals, consents, exemptions,
authorizations, notices or filings which will have been obtained or taken prior
to the consummation of the Recapitalization.
5.4 Binding Effect. This Agreement and each other Loan Document to
which the Company or any Pledgor is a party constitute the legal, valid and
binding obligations of the Company and such Pledgor, enforceable against such
Person in accordance with their respective terms, except as enforceability may
be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar laws affecting the
enforcement of creditors' rights generally or by equitable principles relating
to enforceability.
5.5 Litigation. There are no actions, suits, proceedings, claims or
disputes pending, or to the knowledge of the Company, threatened or
contemplated, at law, in equity, in arbitration or before any Governmental
Authority, against the Company, or its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of their
respective Properties which: (a) purport to affect or pertain to this Agreement,
or any other Loan Document, or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby; (b) purport to affect or pertain to the Recapitalization or any other
transaction contemplated in connection with the Recapitalization Agreements and
related documents; or (c) if determined adversely to the Company, or its
Restricted Subsidiaries, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. No injunction, writ, temporary restraining order or any order of any
nature has been issued by any court or other Governmental Authority purporting
to enjoin or restrain the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document, or directing that the transactions provided for
herein or therein not be consummated as herein or therein provided.
5.6 No Default. No Default or Event of Default exists
or would result from the incurring of any Obligations by the
Company or the grant or perfection of the Administrative Agent's
65
<PAGE>
Liens on the Collateral. Neither the Company nor any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries has received notice or has actual knowledge that it is in default
under or with respect to any Contractual Obligation in any respect which,
individually or together with all such defaults, could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.7 ERISA Compliance. (a) Schedule 5.7 lists all Plans and separately
identifies Plans intended to be Qualified Plans and Multiemployer Plans. Each
Plan is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of
ERISA, the Code and other Federal or state law, including all requirements under
the Code or ERISA for filing reports (which are true and correct in all material
respects as of the date filed), and benefits have been paid in accordance with
the provisions of the Plan. Each Qualified Plan and Multiemployer Plan has been
determined by the IRS to qualify under Section 401 of the Code, and the trusts
created thereunder have been determined to be exempt from tax under the
provisions of Section 501 of the Code, and to the knowledge of the Company
nothing has occurred which would cause the loss of such qualification or
tax-exempt status.
(b) There is no outstanding liability under Title IV of ERISA with
respect to any Plan maintained or sponsored by the Company or any ERISA
Affiliate, nor with respect to any Plan to which the Company or any ERISA
Affiliate contributes or is obligated to contribute. No Plan subject to Title IV
of ERISA has any Unfunded Pension Liability. No member of the Controlled Group
has ever represented, promised or contracted (whether in oral or written form)
to any current or former employee (either individually or to employees as a
group) that such current or former employee(s) would be provided, at any cost to
any member of the Controlled Group, with life insurance or employee welfare plan
benefits (within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA) following retirement or
termination of employment. To the extent that any member of the Controlled Group
has made any such representation, promise or contract, such member has expressly
reserved the right to amend or terminate such life insurance or employee welfare
plan benefits with respect to claims not yet incurred. Members of the Controlled
Group have complied in all material respects with the notice and continuation
coverage requirements of Section 4980B of the Code.
66
<PAGE>
(c) No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to
occur with respect to any Plan. There are no pending or, to the knowledge of the
Company, threatened claims, actions or lawsuits, other than routine claims for
benefits in the usual and ordinary course, asserted or instituted against (i)
any Plan maintained or sponsored by the Company or its assets, (ii) any member
of the Controlled Group with respect to any Qualified Plan, or (iii) any
fiduciary with respect to any Plan for which the Company may be directly or
indirectly liable, through indemnification obligations or otherwise.
(d) Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred nor
reasonably expects to incur (i) any liability (and no event has occurred which,
with the giving of notice under Section 4219 of ERISA, would result in such
liability) under Section 4201 or 4243 of ERISA with respect to a Multiemployer
Plan or (ii) any liability under Title IV of ERISA (other than premiums due and
not delinquent under Section 4007 of ERISA) with respect to a Plan. Neither the
Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has transferred any Unfunded Pension Liability
to a Person other than the Company or an ERISA Affiliate or otherwise engaged in
a transaction that could be subject to Section 4069 or 4212(c) of ERISA. No
member of the Controlled Group has engaged, directly or indirectly, in a
non-exempt prohibited transaction (as defined in Section 4975 of the Code or
Section 406 of ERISA) in connection with any Plan which could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.8 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans are intended to be and
shall be used solely for the purposes set forth in and permitted by Section
6.11, and are intended to be and shall be used in compliance with Section 7.7.
5.9 Title to Properties. The Company and each of its Restricted
Subsidiaries has good record and marketable (or indefeasible in the State of
Texas) title in fee simple to, or valid leasehold interests in, all real
Property necessary or used in the ordinary conduct of its business, except for
such defects in title as could not, individually or in the aggregate, have a
Material Adverse Effect. As of the Closing Date, the Property of the Company and
its Restricted Subsidiaries is subject to no Liens, other than as permitted by
Section 7.1.
67
<PAGE>
5.10 Taxes. The Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries have filed all
Federal and other material tax returns and reports required to be filed, and
have paid all Federal and other material taxes, assessments, fees and other
governmental charges levied or imposed upon them or their Properties, income or
assets that are due pursuant to such returns or reports before any such taxes,
assessments, fees or other charges became delinquent or any penalty accrued with
respect thereto, except those which are being contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been provided in
accordance with GAAP and no Notice of Lien has been filed or recorded. There is
no proposed tax assessment against the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries which could reasonably be expected to, if the assessment were made,
have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.11 Financial Condition.
(a) The audited consolidated financial statements of financial
condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries dated December 31, 1995, and the
related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash
flows for the fiscal year ended on that date: (i) were prepared in accordance
with GAAP consistently applied throughout the period covered thereby, except as
otherwise expressly noted therein; (ii) fairly present the financial condition
of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the date thereof and results of
operations for the period covered thereby; and (iii) show all material
indebtedness and other liabilities, direct or contingent of the Company and its
consolidated Subsidiaries as of the date thereof, including liabilities for
taxes, material commitments and Contingent Obligations that are required to be
included on the Company's consolidated financial statements in accordance with
GAAP.
(b) Since December 31, 1995, there has been no event which could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.12 Environmental Matters.
(a) The on-going operations of the Company and each of its
Restricted Subsidiaries comply in all respects with all Environmental Laws,
except such non-compliance which would
68
<PAGE>
not (if enforced in accordance with applicable law) result in liability which
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company and
each of its Restricted Subsidiaries has obtained all licenses, permits,
authorizations and registrations required under any Environmental Law
("Environmental Permits") and necessary for its ordinary course operations, all
such Environmental Permits are in good standing, and the Company and each of its
Restricted Subsidiaries is in compliance with all material terms and conditions
of such Environmental Permits.
(b) To the knowledge of the Company, none of the Company, any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of their respective present Property or
operations is subject to any outstanding material written order from or
agreement with any Governmental Authority nor subject to any judicial or
docketed administrative proceeding, respecting any Environmental Law,
Environmental Claim or Hazardous Material. There are no Hazardous Materials or
other conditions or circumstances existing with respect to any Property, or
arising from operations prior to the Closing Date, of the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries that would reasonably be expected to give rise to
Environmental Claims with a potential liability of the Company and its
Restricted Subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect for any such condition, circumstance or Property. In addition,
(i) neither the Company's nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries' Properties
have any underground storage tanks (x) that are not properly registered or
permitted under applicable Environmental Laws, or (y) that are leaking or
disposing of Hazardous Materials off-site in an amount that would require
remediation under Environmental Laws, and (ii) to the Company's actual knowledge
the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries have notified all of their employees
of the existence, if any, of any health hazard arising from the conditions of
their employment and have met all notification requirements under Title III of
CERCLA and all other Environmental Laws.
5.13 Capital Stock; Pledge Agreements. (a) Prior to
the Recapitalization Date:
(i) the issued and outstanding capital stock
of the Company consists of Class A Common Stock and
69
<PAGE>
Class B Common Stock. Subject to any statutory voting rights, all
presently exercisable voting rights in the Company are vested
exclusively in its outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, each
share of which is entitled to one vote on every matter to come before
the shareholders. Subject to any contractual limitations applicable to
the holders thereof, each share of Class B Common Stock is convertible
at any time, at the option of the holder thereof, into one share of
Class A Common Stock. To the Company's knowledge, there are no
existing options, warrants, shareholder agreements, calls or
commitments of any character whatsoever relating to any of the Pledged
Collateral other than the Shareholders' Agreement; and
(ii) the Pledged Collateral constitutes all the outstanding
capital stock of the Company owned by the Mitchell Family and not less
than 50% of the Class A Common Stock of the Company issued and
outstanding and a majority of all capital stock of the Company issued
and outstanding. As of the Closing Date, the Pledged Collateral
includes all of the Voting Stock.
(b) From and after the Recapitalization Date, the Pledged
Collateral constitutes all the outstanding capital stock of the Company issued
and outstanding, and there will be no options, warrants, shareholder agreements,
calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to any of the Pledged
Collateral.
(c) At all times the provisions of the Pledge Agreements are, or
will be upon execution, effective to create, in favor of the Administrative
Agent for the benefit of the Banks, a legal, valid and enforceable security
interest in all of the Collateral described therein; and the Pledged Collateral
was delivered to the Administrative Agent or its nominee in accordance with the
terms thereof. The Lien of the Pledge Agreement constitutes a perfected, first
priority security interest in all right, title and interest of the Pledgor(s) in
the Collateral described therein, prior and superior to all other Liens and
interests.
5.14 Regulated Entities. None of the Company, any
70
<PAGE>
Person controlling the Company, or any Subsidiary of the Company, is (a) an
"Investment Company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940;
or (b) subject to regulation under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of
1935, the Federal Power Act, the Interstate Commerce Act, any state public
utilities code, or any other Federal or state statute or regulation limiting its
ability to incur Indebtedness.
5.15 No Burdensome Restrictions. Neither the Company nor any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries is a party to or bound by any Contractual Obligation
(other than this Agreement, the Senior Subordinated Note Indenture and the
Senior Note Indenture), or subject to any charter or corporate restriction, or
any Requirement of Law, which could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.
5.16 Solvency. The Company is Solvent.
5.17 Labor Relations. There are no strikes, lockouts or other labor
disputes against the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or, to the
Company's knowledge, threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries, and no significant unfair labor practice complaint is
pending against the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or, to the
knowledge of the Company, threatened against any of them before any Governmental
Authority, in each case, which could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.
5.18 Copyrights, Patents, Trademarks and Licenses, etc. The Company or
its Restricted Subsidiaries own or are licensed or otherwise have the right to
use all of the patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights,
franchises, authorizations and other rights that are material to the operation
of their respective businesses, without conflict with the rights of any other
Person. To the knowledge of the Company, no slogan or other advertising device,
product, process, method, substance, part or other material now employed, or now
contemplated to be employed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
infringes upon any rights held by any other Person; no claim or litigation
regarding any of the foregoing is pending or to the knowledge of the Company
threatened, and no patent, invention, device, application,
71
<PAGE>
principle or any statute, law, rule, regulation, standard or code is to the
knowledge of the Company pending or proposed, which, in either case, could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.19 Insurance. The Properties of the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries are insured with financially sound and reputable insurance
companies or self-insured (including insurance through a related captive
insurance company), in such amounts, with such deductibles and covering such
risks as the Company believes is adequate in character and amount.
5.20 Senior Notes. Each of the documents relating to the Senior Notes
delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Banks by the Company is true,
accurate and complete, and there exist no amendments or modifications thereto,
or waivers thereof, which have not been delivered to the Administrative Agent.
5.21 Senior Subordinated Notes. Each of the documents relating to the
Senior Subordinated Notes delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Banks by
the Company is true, accurate and complete, and there exist no amendments or
modifications thereto, or waivers thereof, which have not been delivered to the

5.22 Swap Obligations. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
has incurred any outstanding obligations under any Swap Contracts, other than
Permitted Swap Obligations. The Company has undertaken its own independent
assessment of its consolidated assets, liabilities and commitments and has
considered appropriate means of mitigating and managing risks associated with
such matters and has not relied on any swap counterparty or any Affiliate of any
swap counterparty in determining whether to enter into any Swap Contract.
5.23 Full Disclosure. None of the representations or warranties made
by the Company in the Loan Documents as of the date such representations and
warranties are made or deemed made, and none of the statements contained in each
report or certificate (including any exhibits to such report or certificate)
furnished by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
in connection with the Loan Documents, contains any untrue statement of a
material fact or
72
<PAGE>
omits any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are
made, not misleading.

Control Event or (B) the failure of the Mitchell Family (1) to own at
least 50% of all issued and outstanding Voting Stock of the Company,
and such default shall continue unremedied for a period of 30 days,
(2) to own a majority of all issued and outstanding Capital Stock of
the Company at all times, or (3) to have designated a majority of the
Board of Directors of the Company, or
(ii) from and after the Recapitalization Date: (A) a Change
in Control Event (excluding the Recapitalization as a Change in
Control Event itself), (B) the failure of the Mitchell Family (1) to

or (3) to have designated a majority of the Board of Directors of the
Holding Company or (C) the failure of the Holding Company to
beneficially own all the outstanding Capital Stock of the Company.
8.2 Remedies. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the
Administrative Agent shall, at the request of, or may, with the consent of, the
Majority Banks, (a) declare the Commitment of each Bank to make Loans to be
terminated, whereupon such Commitments and obligations shall forthwith be
terminated; (b) declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans,
all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or payable
hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be
100
<PAGE>
immediately due and payable; without presentment, demand, protest or other
notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Company; and
(c) exercise on behalf of itself and the Banks all rights and remedies available
to it and the Banks under the Loan Documents or applicable law; provided,
however, that upon the occurrence of any event specified in paragraph (g) or (h)
of Section 8.1 above (in the case of clause (i) of paragraph (h) upon the
expiration of the 60-day period mentioned therein), the obligation of each Bank
to make Loans shall automatically terminate and the unpaid principal amount of
all outstanding Loans and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall
automatically become due and payable without further act of the Administrative
Agent or any Bank.
8.3 Rights Not Exclusive. The rights provided for in this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other
rights, powers, privileges or remedies provided by law or in equity, or under
any other instrument, document or agreement now existing or hereafter arising.
SECTION 9
THE AGENTS
9.1 Appointment and Authorization. Each Bank hereby irrevocably
appoints, designates and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action
on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan
Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly
delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any
other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or
responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the
Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with
any Bank, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties,
obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the
101
<PAGE>
term "agent" in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent is not
intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations
arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used
merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only
an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.
9.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of
its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents,
employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel
concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall
not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or
attorney-in-fact that it selects with reasonable care.
9.3 Liability of Agents. None of the Agent-Related Persons shall (a)
be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in
connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except for its own
gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (b) be responsible in any manner to
any of the Banks for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by
the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company, or any officer
thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any
certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in,
or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for the value of any Collateral or the
validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of the Company or any
other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or
thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Bank to
ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the
agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, or to inspect the Properties, books or records of the Company or any
of the Company's Subsidiaries or Affiliates.
9.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent.
(a) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to
102
<PAGE>
rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution,
notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or
telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to
be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper
Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including
counsel to the Company), independent accountants and other experts selected by
the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in
failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the
Majority Banks as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be
indemnified to its satisfaction by the Banks against any and all liability and
expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take
any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected
in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Majority Banks and such
request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding
upon all of the Banks.
(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions
specified in Sections 4.1 and 4.2, each Bank that has executed this Agreement
shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied
with each document or other matter either sent by the Administrative Agent to
such Bank for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required
thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to
the Bank, unless an officer of the Administrative Agent responsible for the
transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents shall have received notice from
the Bank prior to the initial Borrowing specifying its objection thereto and
either such objection shall not have been withdrawn by notice to the
Administrative Agent to that effect or the Bank shall not have made available to
the Administrative Agent the Bank's ratable portion of such Borrowing.
9.5 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to
have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default,
except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees
required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks,
103
<PAGE>
unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Bank
or the Company referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of
Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default". In the event that
the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall
give notice thereof to the Banks. The Administrative Agent shall take such
action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be requested by
the Majority Banks in accordance with Section 8; provided, however, that unless
and until the Administrative Agent shall have received any such request, the
Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or
refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of
Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Banks.
9.6 Credit Decision. Each Bank expressly acknowledges that none of the
Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it and that no
act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the
affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to constitute any
representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Bank. Each Bank
represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without
reliance upon the Administrative Agent and based on such documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and
investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and
other condition and creditworthiness of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and
all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated
thereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and extend
credit to the Company hereunder. Each Bank also represents that it will,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent and based on
such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,
continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or
not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make
such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business,
prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and
creditworthiness of the Company. Except for notices, reports and other documents
expressly herein required to be furnished to the Banks by the Administrative
Agent, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to
provide any Bank with any
104
<PAGE>
credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations,
property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Company which
may come into the possession of any of the Agent-Related Persons.
9.7 Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated
hereby shall be consummated, the Banks shall indemnify upon demand the
Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the
Company and without limiting the obligation of the Company to do so), ratably
from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any
kind whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following the
repayment of the Loans and the termination or resignation of the related
Administrative Agent) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such
Person any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any document
contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by any such Person
under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided, however, that no
Bank shall be liable for the payment to the Agent-Related Persons of any portion
of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from such
Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the
foregoing, each Bank shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for
its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and
expenses of counsel and the allocated cost of in-house counsel) incurred by the
Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery,
administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through
negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of
rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or
any document contemplated by or referred to herein to the extent that the
Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the
Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Internal
Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority of the United States or
other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not
properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Bank
(because the appropriate form was not delivered, was
105
<PAGE>
not properly executed, or because such Bank failed to notify the Administrative
Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or
reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason) such Bank
shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or
indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties
and interest, and including any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts
payable to the Administrative Agent under this Section, together with all costs
and expenses (including fees and expenses of counsel and the allocated cost of
in-house counsel). The obligation of the Banks in this Section shall survive the
payment of all Obligations hereunder.
9.8 Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity. BofA and its
Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept
deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of
banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with the Company and its
Subsidiaries and Affiliates as though BofA were not the Administrative Agent
hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Banks. With respect to its
Loans, BofA shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any
other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative
Agent, and the terms "Bank" and "Banks" shall include BofA in its individual
capacity.
9.9 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may, and
at the request of the Majority Banks shall, resign as Administrative Agent upon
30 days' notice to the Banks. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as
Administrative Agent under this Agreement, the Majority Banks shall appoint from
among the Banks a successor agent for the Banks which successor agent shall be
approved by the Company. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the
effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the
Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Banks and the
Company, a successor agent from among the Banks. Upon the acceptance of its
appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to
all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the
term "Administrative Agent" shall mean such successor agent and the retiring
Administrative Agent's appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent
shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation
hereunder as Administrative
106
<PAGE>
Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 and Sections 10.4 and 10.5 shall inure
to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was
Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted
appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is 30 days following a
retiring Administrative Agent's notice of resignation, the retiring
Administrative Agent's resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective
and the Banks shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent
hereunder until such time, if any, as the Majority Banks appoint a successor
agent as provided for above.
9.10 Collateral Matters.
(a) The Administrative Agent is authorized on behalf of all the
Banks, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the Banks,
from time to time to take any action with respect to any Collateral or the
Pledge Agreements which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the
security interest in and Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the
Pledge Agreements. In connection with the Recapitalization, the Administrative
Agent is authorized to release the stock collateral held under the Mitchell
Family Pledge Agreement to the extent necessary, against delivery of the stock
of the Company owned by the Holding Company.
(b) The Banks irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at
its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the
Administrative Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Commitments
and payment in full of all Loans and all other Obligations payable under this
Agreement and under any other Loan Document; (ii) constituting Property sold or
to be sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any Disposition
permitted hereunder; (iii) constituting Property in which the Company or any
Subsidiary of the Company owned no interest at the time the Lien was granted or
at any time thereafter; (iv) constituting Property leased to the Company or any
Subsidiary of the Company under a lease which has expired or been terminated in
a transaction permitted under this Agreement or is about to expire and which has
not been, and is not intended by the Company or such Subsidiary to be, renewed
or extended; (v) consisting of an instrument evidencing Indebtedness or other
debt instrument, if
107
<PAGE>
the indebtedness evidenced thereby has been paid in full; or (vi) if approved,
authorized or ratified in writing by the Majority Banks or all the Banks, as the
case may be, subject to Section 10.1(f). Upon request by the Administrative
Agent at any time, the Banks will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent's
authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this
Section 9.10(b).
(c) Each Bank agrees with and in favor of each other (which
agreement shall not be for the benefit of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries) that the Company's obligation to such Bank under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents is not and shall not be secured by any real
property collateral now or hereafter acquired by such Bank.
9.11 Documentation Agent. The Bank identified on the facing page or
signature pages of this Agreement as the "Documentation Agent" shall not have
any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this
Agreement other than those applicable to all Banks as such. Without limiting the
foregoing, the Documentation Agent shall not have or be deemed to have any
fiduciary relationship with any Bank. Each Bank acknowledges that it has not
relied, and will not rely, on the Documentation Agent in deciding to enter into
this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.
SECTION 10
MISCELLANEOUS
10.1 Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision
of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent with respect to any
departure by the Company therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be
in writing and signed by the Majority Banks, the Company and acknowledged by the
Administrative Agent, and then such waiver shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided,
however, that no such waiver, amendment, or consent shall, unless in writing and
signed by all the Banks, the Company and acknowledged by the Administrative
Agent, do any of the following: (a) increase or extend the Commitment of any
Bank (or reinstate any Commitment terminated pursuant to Section
108
<PAGE>
8.2(a)) or subject any Bank to any additional obligations hereunder or under any
Loan Document; (b) postpone or delay any date fixed for any payment of
principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to the Banks (or any of them)
hereunder or under any Loan Document (other than Swap Contracts); (c) reduce the
principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on any Loan, or of any
fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any Loan Document; (d) change
the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of
the Loans which shall be required for the Banks or any of them to take any

Administrative Agent in addition to the Majority Banks or all the Banks, as the
case may be, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document.
10.2 Notices. All notices, requests and other communications provided
for hereunder shall be in writing (including telegraphic, telex, facsimile
transmission or cable communication) and mailed, telegraphed, telexed,
transmitted or delivered, if to the Company to its address specified on Schedule
10.2 hereto; if to any Bank, to its Domestic Lending Office specified on
Schedule 10.2 hereto; and if to the Administrative Agent, to its address
specified on Schedule 10.2 hereto; or, as to the Company or the Administrative
Agent, to such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written
notice to the other parties, and as to each other party at such other address as
shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the Company and the
Administrative Agent. All such notices and communications shall be effective
when delivered for overnight delivery, delivered to the telegraph company,
transmitted by telecopier and confirmed by telephone, transmitted by telex and
confirmed by telex answerback or delivered to the cable company, as applicable,
or if delivered, upon delivery, except that written notices pursuant to Section
2 shall not be effective until received by the Administrative Agent.
10.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to
exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the
Administrative Agent or any Bank, any right, remedy, power or
109
<PAGE>
privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy,
power or privilege.
10.4 Costs and Expenses. The Company shall, whether
or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated:
(a) reimburse BofA (including in its capacity as Administrative
Agent) on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection
with the development, syndication, preparation, delivery, administration and
execution of, and any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification to, this
Agreement, any Loan Document and any other documents prepared in connection
herewith or therewith, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby, including the reasonable costs and expenses of counsel to
BofA (including in its capacity as Administrative Agent) (and the allocated cost
of internal counsel) with respect thereto;
(b) reimburse each Bank and the Administrative Agent on demand
for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by them in connection with the
enforcement or preservation of any rights (including in connection with any
"workout" or restructuring regarding the Loans) under this Agreement, any Loan
Document, and any such other documents, including fees and out-of-pocket
expenses of counsel (and the allocated cost of internal counsel) to the
Administrative Agent and to each of the Banks; and
(c) reimburse the Administrative Agent on demand for all
reasonable appraisal, audit, search and filing fees, incurred or sustained by
the Administrative Agent in connection with the matters referred to under
paragraphs (a) and (b) above.
10.5 General Indemnity. The Company shall pay, indemnify, and hold
each Bank, the Administrative Agent and each of their respective officers,
directors, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact (each, an
"Indemnified Person") harmless from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
charges, expenses or disbursements (including reasonable fees and
110
<PAGE>
out-of-pocket expenses of counsel and the allocated cost of internal counsel) of
any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery,
enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement and any other Loan
Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and with respect
to any investigation, litigation or proceeding (including any Insolvency
Proceeding or appellate proceeding) related to this Agreement or the Loans, or
the use of the proceeds thereof, whether or not any Indemnified Person is a
party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the "Indemnified Liabilities");
provided, that the Company shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnified
Person with respect to Indemnified Liabilities (i) arising from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person (ii) with respect to
judicial proceedings commenced against such Indemnified Person by any holder of
the debt or equity securities of such Indemnified Person based solely on the
rights afforded such holder in its capacity as such, and (iii) with respect to
judicial proceedings commenced solely against such Indemnified Person by another
Bank, Assignee or Participant to the extent based on a cause of action against
such Indemnified Person and not the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary. The
obligations in this Section 10.5 shall survive payment of all other Obligations.
The Company shall have the right to undertake, conduct and control through
counsel of its own choosing (which counsel shall be acceptable to the
Indemnified Persons acting reasonably) and at the sole expense of the Company,
the conduct and settlement of any Indemnified Liabilities, and the Indemnified
Person shall cooperate with the Company in connection therewith; provided that
the Company shall permit the Indemnified Person to participate in such conduct
and settlement through counsel chosen by the Indemnified Person, but the fees
and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Person.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Person shall have the right to
employ its own counsel, and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel
shall be at the Company's costs and expense if the interests of the Company and
the Indemnified Person become adverse in any such claim or course of action;
provided, however, the Company, in such event, shall only be liable for the
reasonable legal expenses of one counsel for all of such Indemnified Persons.
The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any claim or action
effected without its prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld. All amounts owing under this
111
<PAGE>
Section 10.5 shall be paid within 30 days after demand.
10.6 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. Neither the Administrative Agent
nor the Banks shall be under any obligation to marshall any assets in favor of
the Company or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the
Obligations. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to the
Administrative Agent or the Banks, or the Administrative Agent or the Banks
enforce their Liens or exercise their rights of set-off, and such payment or
payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or set-off or any part thereof are
subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside
or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party in connection
with any Insolvency Proceeding, or otherwise, then to the extent of such
recovery the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied
shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had
not been made or such enforcement or set-off had not occurred.
10.7 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns, except that the Company may not assign or transfer any
of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written
consent of the Administrative Agent and each Bank.
10.8 Assignments, Participations, etc.
(a) Any Bank may, with the prior written consent of the Company
at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default, and the
Administrative Agent, which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld, at any
time assign and delegate to one or more Eligible Assignees (provided that no
written consent of the Company or the Administrative Agent shall be required in
connection with any assignment and delegation by a Bank to a Bank Affiliate of
such Bank) (each an "Assignee") all, or any ratable part of all, of the Loans,
the Commitments and the other rights and obligations of such Bank hereunder, in
a minimum amount of $10,000,000 and multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof;
provided, however, that (i) the Company and the Administrative Agent may
continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with the
interest so assigned to an Assignee until (A) written notice of such assignment,
together
112
<PAGE>
with payment instructions, addresses and related information with respect to the
Assignee, shall have been given to the Company and the Administrative Agent by
such Bank and the Assignee; (B) such Bank and its Assignee shall have delivered
to the Company and the Administrative Agent a Notice of Assignment and
Acceptance in the form of Exhibit D ("Notice of Assignment and Acceptance")
together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment and (C) the assignor
Bank or Assignee has paid to the Administrative Agent a processing fee in the
amount of $2,500.
(b) From and after the date that the Administrative Agent
notifies the assignor Bank that it has received an executed Notice of Assignment
and Acceptance and payment of the above-referenced processing fee, (i) the
Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and
obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Notice of
Assignment and Acceptance, shall have the rights and obligations of a Bank under
the Loan Documents, and (ii) the assignor Bank shall, to the extent that rights
and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned
by it pursuant to such Notice of Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its
rights and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents.
(c) Within five Business Days after its receipt of notice by the
Administrative Agent that it has received an executed Notice of Assignment and
Acceptance and payment of the processing fee, the Company shall, upon the
request of the Assignee made through the Administrative Agent, execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent, one or more new Notes evidencing such
Assignee's assigned Loans and Commitment and, if the assignor Bank had
previously requested one or more Notes and has retained a portion of its Loans
and its Commitment, replacement Notes in the principal amount of the Loans
retained by the assignor Bank (such Notes to be in exchange for, but not in
payment of, the Notes held by such Bank). Immediately upon each Assignee's
making its processing fee payment under the Notice of Assignment and Acceptance,
this Agreement, shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the
extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee and the resulting
adjustment of the Commitments arising therefrom. The Commitment allocated to
each Assignee shall reduce such Commitments of the assigning Bank pro tanto.
113
<PAGE>
(d) Any Bank may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks
or other Persons not Affiliates of the Company (a "Participant") participating
interests in any Loans, the Commitment of that Bank and the other interests of
that Bank (the "originating Bank") hereunder and under the other Loan Documents;
provided, however, that (i) the originating Bank's obligations under this
Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the originating Bank shall remain solely
responsible for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Company and the
Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with the
originating Bank in connection with the originating Bank's rights and
obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (iv) no Bank
shall transfer or grant any participating interest under which the Participant
shall have rights to approve any amendment to, or any consent or waiver with
respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except to the extent such
amendment, consent or waiver would require unanimous consent of the Banks as
described in the first proviso to Section 10.1. In the case of any such
participation, the Participant shall be entitled to the benefit of Sections 3.1,
3.3 and 10.5 as though it were also a Bank hereunder, and if amounts outstanding
under this Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall
have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each
Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its
participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent
as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a
Bank under this Agreement.
(e) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this
Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, any Bank may assign all or
any portion of the Loans or Notes held by it to any Federal Reserve Bank or the
United States Treasury as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any Operating Circular
issued by such Federal Reserve Bank, provided that any payment in respect of
such assigned Loans or Notes made by the Company to or for the account of the
assigning or pledging Bank in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall
satisfy the Company's obligations hereunder in respect to such assigned Loans or
Notes to the extent of such payment. No such assignment shall release the
assigning Bank from its obligations hereunder.
114
<PAGE>
10.9 Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Banks
provided by law, if an Event of Default exists, each Bank is authorized at any
time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Company, any such notice
being waived by the Company to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off
and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional
or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing to, such
Bank to or for the credit or the account of the Company against any and all
Obligations owing to such Bank, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of
whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Bank shall have made demand
under this Agreement or any Loan Document and although such Obligations may be

"Agreement"), dated as of December 12, 1996, is executed by CINEMARK USA, INC.,
a Texas corporation (the "Company") and the undersigned pledgors (each a
"Pledgor" and collectively, the "Pledgors") for the benefit of BANK OF AMERICA
NATIONAL TRUST AND SAVINGS ASSOCIATION as agent (in such capacity herein called
the "Administrative Agent") for itself and each Bank (as hereinafter defined) in
its capacity as a lender under the Credit Agreement referred to below and as a
counterparty under any Swap Contract (the Administrative Agent and each Bank in
such capacities are referred to herein collectively as the "Secured Parties"),
and amends and restates the Pledge Agreement dated as of February 14, 1996
executed by the Pledgors in favor of the Administrative Agent.
RECITALS
A. Concurrently herewith, the Company, the banks signatories thereto
(such banks, and other banks from time to time signatory thereto and banks from
time to time purchasing a participation in a signatory bank's interest therein,
together with any Affiliate of any bank in its capacity as a counterparty under
any Swap Contract, collectively, the "Banks" and individually a "Bank") and the
Administrative Agent are entering into a First Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement dated as of even date herewith (as amended, supplemented, restated or
otherwise modified from time to time, the "Credit Agreement"), subject to and
upon the condition among others, that the Pledgors execute this Agreement in
favor of the Secured Parties. The Credit Agreement amends and restates the
Existing Credit Facility.
B. From time to time a Bank, in its capacity as a
137
<PAGE>
counterparty, may enter into one or more Swap Contracts with the Company, and
the parties hereto desire that the obligations of the Company under any such
Swap Contracts be secured hereby.
C. It is a condition precedent to the making of the Credit Extensions
by the Banks under the Credit Agreement that the Pledgors shall have granted the
security interest contemplated by this Agreement and the Secured Parties are
relying on the undertakings of the Pledgors and the Company contained herein.
D. Terms defined and the rules of construction in the
Credit Agreement have, unless the context otherwise requires, the
same meanings in this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Grant of Security Interest.
(a) As security for the payment or performance when due (whether at
stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations to any Secured
Party, now existing or hereafter arising, each Pledgor hereby pledges, assigns
and transfers to the Administrative Agent for purposes of security and for the
equal benefit of the Secured Parties, and hereby grants to the Administrative
Agent for the equal benefit of the Secured Parties, a lien on, and security
interest in, all of such Pledgor's right, title and interest in, to and under
the following, whether now or hereafter existing and whether now owned or
hereafter acquired (collectively, the "Collateral"):
(i) all shares opposite such Pledgor's name, as set
forth on Schedule 1 (collectively, the "Pledged Shares");
(ii) all additional shares of stock of the Company from
time to time acquired by such Pledgor in any manner;
(iii) the certificates representing the shares referred
to in paragraphs (i) and (ii) above; and
(iv) all dividends, cash, instruments and other
property or proceeds from time to time received, receivable
138
<PAGE>
or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of the
shares referred to in paragraphs (i) and (ii) above (all of the foregoing
being the "Proceeds"); provided, however, that so long as no Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, each Pledgor may receive free and
clear of any security interest under this Agreement any cash dividends paid
in respect of the Pledged Shares.
(b) All certificates or instruments representing or evidencing the
Collateral shall be delivered to and held by or on behalf of the Administrative
Agent pursuant hereto and shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or
shall be accompanied by duly executed undated instruments of transfer or
assignment in blank, all in form and substance satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Administrative Agent shall have the right, at any time in its discretion and
without notice to any Pledgor, to transfer to or to register in its name or any
of its nominees any or all of the Collateral, subject only to the revocable
rights specified in Section 6(a). In addition, if an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall have the right at any
time to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing
Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations.
(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the
contrary, and except for the obligation of each Pledgor to deliver the
Collateral owned by such Pledgor to the Secured Parties pursuant to the
provisions hereof, in no event shall any Pledgor have any personal liability
with respect to the Obligations or any obligations, debt or other liabilities
that may arise under this Agreement and Secured Parties recourse against such
Pledgor shall be limited solely to the Collateral owned by such Pledgor.
2. Security for Obligations. This Agreement secures, in accordance
with the provisions hereof, the payment by the Company of all of the Obligations
to any Secured Party under any Loan Document, including under any Swap Contract,
and all obligations of the Company and each Pledgor under this Agreement, in
each case now existing or hereafter arising. The Collateral shall secure the
Obligations owing to the Secured Parties equally and ratably.
139

"Pledge Agreement Supplement") identifying the additional shares which are being
pledged. Each Pledgor hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to attach each
Pledge Agreement Supplement to this Agreement and agrees that all shares listed

for all purposes hereunder constitute Collateral. Upon any person pledging
shares hereunder, such person shall be deemed a Pledgor hereunder.

its Pledged Shares or upon the Liens provided for herein as well as pay, or
cause to be
143

paid, all claims for labor, materials or supplies which, if unpaid, might by law
become a Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) thereon, and will retain copies of,
and, upon request, permit the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to

Pledgor shall be required to pay any such tax, assessment, charge or levy, the

prior written notice before it changes the location of its chief executive

Secured Party to inspect and make abstracts from such Records.
(c) No Pledgor shall sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise)

interest of the Administrative Agent in and to such Pledgor's rights to the
Collateral against the claims and demands of all Persons whatsoever.
(e) Each Pledgor will, upon becoming aware of such event, notify the

on the Collateral or on the security interest
144
<PAGE>

Company not to issue any stock or other securities in addition to or in
substitution for the Pledged Shares except: (i) to a Pledgor, (ii) any stock
options issued to employees of the Company and any shares of capital stock of
the Company issuable upon the exercise of such options, and (iii) shares of
common stock of the Company not exceeding 15% of the shares of common stock of

is amended, in which case such Pledgor agrees to also provide the Administrative
Agent with correct copies of the amendment(s); or (c) one or more trustee(s)
change, in which case such Pledgor also agrees to provide the Administrative

has not been given by the Administrative Agent to any Pledgor):
(i) each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting
and other consensual rights pertaining to the Collateral or any part
thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement
or any Loan Documents;

or in exchange for, any Collateral all of which shall be, and all of which

the benefit of the Administrative Agent, be segregated from the other
property or funds of each Pledgor, and be forthwith delivered to the
Administrative Agent as Collateral in the same form as so received (with
any necessary endorsement).
(iii) The Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver (or
cause to be executed and delivered) to each Pledgor all such proxies and

dividends which it is authorized to receive and retain pursuant to
paragraph (ii) above.

continuing:
(i) All rights of each Pledgor to exercise the voting and other
consensual rights which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant
to Section 6(a)(i) above shall cease upon written notice thereof from the
Administrative Agent, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in
the Administrative Agent who shall thereupon have the sole right to
exercise such voting and other consensual rights.
(ii) All rights of each Pledgor to receive the
dividends which it would otherwise be authorized to receive
146
<PAGE>

rights shall thereupon become vested in the Administrative Agent who shall
thereupon have the sole right to receive and hold as Collateral such
dividends.
(iii) All dividends which are received by any Pledgor contrary to
the provisions of Section 6(a)(ii) shall be received in trust for the

necessary, upon written notice from the Administrative Agent, from time to time
during the continuance of an Event of Default execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent appropriate dividend payment orders and other instruments
as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request.
7. Administrative Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. The Company and
each Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent the Company's
and such Pledgor's attorney-in-fact (which appointment as attorney-in-fact shall
be coupled with an interest), with full authority to act in the place and stead
of the Company and such Pledgor and in the name of the Company and such Pledgor
or otherwise, from time to time if an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing or to the extent contemplated by Section 8 hereof in the
Administrative Agent's discretion to take any action and to execute any
instrument which the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to
accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, to
ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compound, receive and give acquittance
and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in connection with the
Collateral, to receive, enforce Section 18, indorse and collect any drafts or
other instruments, documents and chattel paper in connection therewith, and to
file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which the
Administrative Agent may deem to be
147
<PAGE>
necessary or desirable for the collection thereof or to enforce compliance with
the terms and conditions of the Assigned Agreements or this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated
to exercise any right or duty as attorney-in-fact, and shall have no duties to
the Assignor in connection therewith.
8. Administrative Agent May Perform.
(a) If the Company or any Pledgor fails to perform or comply with any
of its agreements contained herein, the Administrative Agent may, as provided
for by the terms of this Agreement, itself perform or comply, or otherwise cause
performance or compliance, with such Agreement. The reasonable expenses of the
Administrative Agent incurred in connection with such performance or compliance
shall be payable by the Company and each Pledgor to the Administrative Agent and
shall constitute Obligations secured hereby; provided, that the payment to the
Administrative Agent shall be made solely through the application of proceeds in
accordance with Section 9(a) hereof. The Administrative Agent agrees to notify
the Company and the Pledgors promptly after incurring any expenses pursuant to
this Section 8; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall
not affect the Administrative Agent's right to reimbursement from the Company
and each Pledgor.
(b) The Administrative Agent shall use reasonable care with respect to
the Collateral in its possession or under its control. Except as set forth in
the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty as to
any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of
any agent or nominee of it or as to any income thereon or as to the preservation
of rights against parties or any other rights pertaining thereto.
9. Rights and Remedies.
(a) If (i) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing
and (ii) any of the Obligations shall have been declared to be, or shall have
become, due and payable, then, in addition to any other rights and remedies
provided for herein or which may otherwise be available, the Administrative
Agent may, without any further demand, advertisement or notice (except as
148
<PAGE>
expressly provided for below in this Section 9(a)), exercise all the rights and
remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of
New York (the "UCC") (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected
Collateral), and in addition: (i) may apply the moneys, if any, then held by it
as part of the Collateral, for the following purposes and in the following
order:
(1) first, to the payment of (A) all costs and expenses relating to
the sale of the Collateral and collection of amounts owing hereunder,
including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements and the just
compensation of the Administrative Agent for services rendered in
connection therewith or in connection with any proceeding to sell if a sale
is not completed, and (B) all charges, expenses and advances incurred or
made by the Administrative Agent in order to protect the Lien of this
Agreement or the security afforded hereby, together with interest at the
rate specified in Section 2.10(c) of the Credit Agreement;
(2) second, to the payment in full of all of the Obligations owed to
the Secured Parties hereunder or under any Loan Document (to be paid to the
Secured Parties in accordance with the aggregate outstanding amounts of
such Obligations owed to each Secured Party); and
(3) third, the balance, if any, shall be paid to each Pledgor or to
such other Person as shall be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus (as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, if such procedure is
available under applicable law);
and (ii) if there shall be no such moneys or the moneys so applied shall be
insufficient to satisfy in full all Obligations, may sell the Collateral, or any
part thereof, as hereinafter provided in this Section 9(a) and otherwise to the
fullest extent permitted by law. The Collateral may be sold in one or more
sales, at public or private sale, conducted by any officer or agent of, or
auctioneer or attorney for, the Administrative Agent, at the Administrative
Agent's place of business or elsewhere, for cash, upon credit or for other
property, for immediate or future delivery, and at such price or prices and on
such terms as the Administrative Agent shall deem appropriate.
149
<PAGE>
The Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party may be the purchaser of any
or all of the Collateral so sold at a public sale and, to the extent permitted
by law, at a private sale and thereafter hold the same, absolutely free from any
right or claim of whatsoever kind, and, the obligations of each Pledgor to such
purchaser may be applied as a credit against the purchase price. The
Administrative Agent, may, in its sole discretion (in the case of Collateral
consisting of securities) or if commercially reasonable (in the case of all
other Collateral), at any such sale restrict the prospective bidders or
purchasers as to their number, nature of business and investment intention. Upon
any public or private sale the Administrative Agent shall have the right to
deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral so sold.
Each purchaser (including the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party)
at any such sale shall hold the Collateral so sold, absolutely free from any
claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any equity or right of redemption,
of each Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby specifically waives, to the full extent
it may lawfully do so, all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which it has
or may have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter adopted.
The Administrative Agent shall give each Pledgor at least ten days' notice
(which each Pledgor agrees is reasonable notification within the meaning of
Section 9-504(3) of the UCC) of any such public or private sale. Any public sale
shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours as the
Administrative Agent shall fix in the notice of such sale. At any such sale the
Collateral may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels. The
Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale pursuant to any
such notice. The Administrative Agent may, without notice or publication,
adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time
to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for such sale, and any such
sale may be made at any time or place to which the same may be so adjourned
without further notice or publication. In case of any sale of all or any part of
the Collateral on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be
retained by the Administrative Agent until the full selling price is paid by the
purchaser thereof, but neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured
Party shall incur any liability in case of the failure of such purchaser to take
up and pay for the Collateral so sold, and, in case of any such failure, such
Collateral may again be sold pursuant to the
150
<PAGE>
provisions hereof.
(b) Instead of exercising the power of sale provided in Section 9(a)
hereof, the Administrative Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in
equity to foreclose the security interest under this Agreement and sell the
Collateral or any portion thereof under a judgment or decree of a court or
courts of competent jurisdiction.
(c) The Administrative Agent as attorney-in-fact pursuant to Section 7
hereof may, in the name and stead of the Company and each Pledgor, make and
execute all conveyances, assignments and transfers of the Collateral sold
pursuant to Section 9(a) or Section 9(b) hereof, and the Company hereby ratifies
and confirms all that the Administrative Agent, as said attorney-in-fact, shall
do by virtue hereof. Nevertheless, the Company and each Pledgor shall, if so
requested by the Administrative Agent, ratify and confirm any sale or sales by
executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent, or to such purchaser or
purchasers, all such instruments as may, in the reasonable judgment of the
Administrative Agent, be advisable for the purpose.
(d) The receipt by the Administrative Agent of the purchase money paid
at any sale made by it shall be a sufficient discharge therefor to any purchaser
of the Collateral, or any portion thereof, sold as aforesaid; and no such
purchaser (or the representatives or assigns of such purchaser), after paying
such purchase money and receiving such receipt, shall be bound to see to the
application of such purchase money or any part thereof or in any manner
whatsoever be answerable for any loss, misapplication or nonapplication of any
such purchase money, or any part thereof, or be bound to inquire as to the
authorization, necessity, expediency or regularity of any such sale.
(e) The Administrative Agent shall incur no liability as a result of
the sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale conducted
in a commercially reasonable manner. The Company and each Pledgor hereby waives,
to the full extent permitted by applicable law, any claims against the
Administrative Agent and/or any Secured Party arising by reason of the fact that
the price at which the Collateral, or any part thereof, may have been sold at a
private sale was less than the
151
<PAGE>
price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the
aggregate amount of the Obligations, even if the Administrative Agent accepts
the first offer received which the Administrative Agent in good faith deems to
be commercially reasonable under the circumstances and does not offer the
Collateral to more than one offeree. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the
Company and each Pledgor shall have the burden of proving that any such sale of
the Collateral was conducted in a commercially unreasonable manner.
(f) Each and every right and remedy of the Administrative Agent shall,
to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and shall be in addition to any
other remedy given hereunder or under the Credit Agreement or now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity or by statute.
(g) The Administrative Agent may participate in any recapitalization,
reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, redemption, stock split,
merger, or liquidation of the Company, and in connection therewith deposit or
surrender control of the Collateral, accept money or other property in exchange
for the Collateral, and take such action as deemed proper by the Administrative
Agent in connection therewith, and any other money or property received in
exchange for the Collateral shall be applied to satisfy the Obligations or held
by the Administrative Agent thereafter as Collateral pursuant to the provisions
hereof.
10. Sales of Pledged Shares.
(a) If, at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, the
Administrative Agent in its sole discretion determines that in connection with
any actual or contemplated exercise of its rights to sell the whole or any part
of the Collateral hereunder, it is necessary or advisable to effect a public
registration of all or part of the Collateral pursuant to the Securities Act of
1933, as from time to time amended (or any similar statute then in effect) (the
"Securities Act"), the Company shall:
(i) prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"SEC") a registration statement with respect to the Collateral and use its
reasonable best efforts to
152
<PAGE>
cause such registration statement to become and remain
effective;
(ii) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to
such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith
as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective and to
comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the sale
or other disposition of the Collateral covered by such registration
statement whenever the Administrative Agent shall desire to sell or
otherwise dispose of the Collateral;
(iii) furnish to the Administrative Agent such numbers of copies of a
prospectus and a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the
requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as the
Administrative Agent may request in order to facilitate the public sale or
other disposition of the Collateral by the Administrative Agent;
(iv) use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify the
Collateral covered by such registration statement under such other
securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United States
of America as the Administrative Agent shall request, and do such other
reasonable acts and things as may be required of it to enable the
Administrative Agent to consummate the public sale or other disposition in
such jurisdictions of the Collateral by the Administrative Agent;
(v) otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all
applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make available to its
security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable an earnings statement
which shall satisfy the provisions of the Securities Act; and
(vi) do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to
make such sale of the Collateral or any part thereof valid and binding and
in compliance with applicable law.
(b) The Company and each Pledgor recognizes that, by
reason of the aforementioned requirements and certain
153
<PAGE>
prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities
laws, the Administrative Agent may, at its option, elect not to require the
Company and each Pledgor to register all or any part of the Collateral and may
therefore be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the
Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to
acquire such securities for their own account, for investment, and not with a
view to the distribution or resale thereof. The Company and each Pledgor
acknowledges and agrees that any such sale may result in prices and other terms
less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale without such
restrictions and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such sale
conducted in good faith shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially
reasonable manner. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to
delay the sale of any of the Pledged Shares for the period of time necessary to
permit the Company or any Pledgor to register such securities for public sale
under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if the
Company or such Pledgor would agree to do so.
(c) If the Administrative Agent determines to exercise its right to
sell any or all of the Collateral, upon written request, the Company and each
Pledgor shall and shall cause, each of its Subsidiaries to, from time to time,
furnish to the Administrative Agent all such information as the Administrative
Agent may request in order to determine the number of shares and other
instruments included in the Collateral which may be sold by the Administrative
Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and rules of the SEC
thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.
11. Continuing Assignment and Security Interest;
Transfer of Notes. This Agreement shall create a continuing
assignment of and security interest in the Collateral and shall
(a) remain in full force and effect until payment in full of the
Obligations and all other amounts owing to each Secured Party
under any Loan Documents and the termination or expiration of the
Commitments, (b) be binding upon the Company and each Pledgor,
its successors and assigns and (c) inure, together with the
rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent hereunder, to the
benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties and
their respective successors, transferees and assigns. Without
154
<PAGE>
limiting the generality of the foregoing, any Bank may assign or otherwise
transfer its rights and obligations under any Loan Document to any other Person
or entity, and such other Person or entity shall thereupon become vested with
all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Bank herein or otherwise,
all as provided in, and to the extent set forth in, the Loan Documents. Neither
the Company nor any Pledgor may assign or transfer any of its rights or
obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent. Upon the payment in full of the Obligations and
termination of the commitments (exclusive of future, contingent or unliquidated
amounts arising under indemnity agreements), the security interest granted
hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to each
Pledgor. Upon any such termination, the Administrative Agent will, at each
Pledgor's expense, execute and deliver to each Pledgor such documents as each
Pledgor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.
12. No Notices, etc. No Secured Party shall be under any duty or
obligation whatsoever (a) to make or give any presentments, demands for
performances, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest or notices
of dishonor in connection with any Obligations or evidences of Obligations held
by Secured Parties as Collateral, or in connection with any Obligation or
evidences of Obligations which constitute in whole or in part the Obligations
secured hereunder, or (b) to give the Company or any Pledgor notice of, or to
exercise any subscription rights or privileges, any rights or privileges to
exchange, convert or redeem or any other rights or privileges relating to or
affecting any Collateral held by Secured Parties.
13. Delivery of Collateral. Secured Parties may at any time cause the
Administrative Agent to deliver the Collateral or any part thereof to Pledgors
and the receipt of Pledgors shall be a complete and full acquittance for the
Collateral so delivered, and Secured Parties shall thereafter be discharged from
any liability or responsibility therefor.
14. Primary Obligation. The Company and each Pledgor
acknowledges and agrees that each is directly and primarily
liable to the Secured Parties with respect to its obligations
under this Agreement, that its obligations under this Agreement
155
<PAGE>
are independent of Company's obligations under the Credit Agreement, and that a
separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the Company or
any Pledgor to enforce this Agreement, whether or not action is brought against
Company or any other Pledgor or whether or not the Company or any other Pledgor
is joined in any such action or actions. The Company and each Pledgor
acknowledges and agrees that any release which may be given by the Secured
Parties to the Company or any other Pledgor shall not release the Company or any
Pledgor from its obligations under this Agreement.
15. Waivers. The obligations of the Company and each Pledgor under
this Agreement shall not be affected, modified or impaired as a result of the
occurrence from time to time of any of the following, whether or not with notice
to or the consent of the Company or any Pledgor; (a) the compromise, settlement,
change, modification, amendment (whether material or otherwise) or partial
termination of any or all of the Obligations under any Loan Document; (b) the
failure to give notice to the Company or any Pledgor of the occurrence of any
default under the terms and provisions of any Loan Document; (c) the waiver of
the payment, performance or observance of any of Company's Obligations under any
Loan Document; (d) the taking or omitting to take any actions referred to in any
Loan Document; (e) any failure, omission or delay on the part of the Secured
Parties to enforce, assert or exercise any right, power or remedy conferred in
this Agreement, any Loan Document or any other indulgence or similar act on the
part of the Secured Parties in compliance with applicable law; or (f) the
voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale or other disposition of
all or substantially all of the assets, marshalling or assets, receivership,
insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors or readjustment
of, or other similar proceedings which affect, Company or any of the assets of
the Company, or any allegation of invalidity or contest of the validity of this
Agreement in any such proceeding. The Company and each Pledgor waives any right
to require any Secured Party to (a) proceed against any person, (b) proceed
against or exhaust any Collateral, (c) pursue any other remedy in such Secured
Party's power. The Company and each Pledgor hereby waives: (i) any and all
rights to require the Secured Parties to prosecute or to seek to enforce any
remedies against Company or any other party liable to the Secured Parties with
respect to Company's obligations under any Loan Document or to otherwise
156
<PAGE>
mitigate the Company's or any Pledgors's obligations under this Agreement; (ii)
any right to assert against the Secured Parties with respect to the Company's or
Pledgors's obligations under this Agreement any defense (legal or equitable),

have against the Secured Parties, Company or any other party liable to the

all Obligations (exclusive of future, contingent or unliquidated amounts arising
under indemnity agreements) have been paid in full to the Secured Parties, it
shall not have any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or contribution against
Company arising as a result of the performance of this Agreement, and shall not
seek to assert or enforce any such rights. Each Pledgor acknowledges that the
exercise by the Secured Parties of certain rights and remedies contained in any
Loan Document may affect or eliminate such Pledgors's right of subrogation, if
any, against Company arising as a result of its performance of this Agreement
and that such Pledgor may therefore incur a partially or totally nonreimbursable
liability hereunder, and each Pledgor hereby agrees that the Secured Parties may
in its sole discretion exercise any such right or remedy.
17. Attorneys Fees.
(a) The Company agrees to pay to each Secured Party the amount of

157
<PAGE>
or preservation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon,
any of the Collateral; (ii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of
any Secured Party hereunder; or (iii) the failure by the Company or any Pledgor
to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof; provided that the payment of
such sums shall be made to the Secured Parties solely through the application of
proceeds in accordance with Section 9(a) hereof.
(b) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold each Secured Party
harmless from and against any taxes, liabilities, claims and damages, including
attorney's fees and disbursements (including, without limitation, the allocated
cost of in-house counsel), and other expenses incurred or arising by reason of
the taking or the failure to take action by any Secured Party in respect of any
transaction effected under this Agreement or in connection with the Lien
provided for herein, including, without limitation, any taxes payable with
respect to the Collateral or in connection with any transaction contemplated by
this Agreement and any and all costs, losses, liabilities, claims, damages or
expenses incurred by any Secured Party arising out of any investigation,
litigation or other proceeding related to this Agreement or any transaction
contemplated hereby, except for the gross negligence and willful misconduct of
such Secured Party; provided, that such indemnification shall be made to the
Secured Parties solely through the application of proceeds in accordance with
Section 9(a) hereof.
(c) The obligations of the Company under this Section 17(a) shall
survive the termination of this Agreement.
18. Future Voting Stock. If (i) The Peble Corp. or The Pebble Group,
Ltd., converts any of its Class B Common Stock into Voting Stock, and at such
time that certain Voting Proxy defined in Section 5.13(c) of the Credit
Agreement is no longer in effect, or (ii) any other shareholder converts any of
its Class B Common Stock into Voting Stock, the Mitchell Family shall, within 30
days, in the aggregate, convert a sufficient number of its shares of Class B
Common Stock into Voting Stock so as to hold not less than a majority of the
Voting Stock pledged hereunder. The Pledgors represent and warrant that there
are no restrictions on the Mitchell Family converting its Class B Common Stock
into Voting Stock at any time, and covenant not to agree,
158
<PAGE>
directly or indirectly, to any such restrictions.
19. Miscellaneous.
(a) Headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of
reference only and do not constitute part of this Agreement for any purpose.
(b) No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any of
its agents to exercise, and no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay
in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Administrative Agent or
any of its agents of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.
The remedies herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies
provided by law.
(c) If any provision hereof is invalid and unenforceable in any
jurisdiction, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the other provisions
hereof shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be
liberally construed in favor of the Administrative Agent and the Banks in order
to carry out the intentions of the parties hereto as nearly as may be possible
and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof in any

attorneys-in-fact in connection herewith and shall not be responsible for the
negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it
in good faith.
