Item 1: Business.
(a) General Development of Business.
CONTINUED EXPANSION
The Company is the fifth largest motion picture exhibitor in North America
in terms of the number of screens in operation. At March 27, 1998, the Company
operated 1,890 screens in 195 theatres located in 30 states, Canada, Chile,
Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Peru, El Salvador, Ecuador and Costa Rica consisting
of 1,549 screens in 152 "first run" theatres and 341 screens in 43 "discount"
theatres. Of the Company's 1,890 screens, 1,453 (or 77%) 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 94% of the Company's
screens located in theatres of six or more screens. The Company believes that
its ratio of screens to theatres (9.7 to 1 at March 27, 1998) is the highest of
the five largest theatre circuits in the U.S. and is more than 50% higher than
the industry average. From its fiscal year ended December 31, 1992 through the
fiscal year ended December 31, 1997, the Company has increased consolidated
revenues approximately 123% from $194.7 million to $434.6 million and has
increased EBITDA (as defined herein) approximately 176% from $32.1 million to
$88.5 million.
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 OFFERINGS
On June 26, 1997, the Company issued $75 million aggregate principal amount
of 9-5/8% Series C Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Series C Notes") pursuant to
Rule 144A (the "Offering"). The net proceeds of the Offering were used by the
Company to reduce the Company's indebtedness under the then existing credit
facility. The Company exchanged the Series C Notes on October 30, 1997 for
9-5/8% Series D Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Senior Subordinated Notes"),
which Senior Subordinated Notes have been registered under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended.
On January 14, 1998, the Company issued $105 million aggregate principal
amount of 8-12% 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 reduce the Company's indebtedness under the then
existing credit facility. The Company exchanged the Series A Notes on March
17, 1998 for 8-1/2% 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 February 12, 1998, 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 $350.0 million in the aggregate.
The Credit Facility is a reducing revolving credit facility; therefore, at the
end of each quarter during the calendar year 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004, the
aggregate commitment shall automatically be reduced by $8,750,000, $11,812,500,
$13,125,000, $12,031,250 and $6,562,000 respectively. The Company is required
to prepay all loans outstanding in excess of the aggregate
1
<PAGE> 4
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, 1998, the interest rate was 6.9%. The Credit Facility
requires the Company to comply with certain financial covenants and other
covenants customary for this type of financing.
SALE LEASEBACK TRANSACTION
On February 24, 1998, the Company completed a sale leaseback transaction
with affiliates of Primus Capital L.L.C. (the "Sale Leaseback"). Pursuant to
the Sale Leaseback, the Company sold the land, buildings and site improvements
of twelve theatre properties to special purpose entities formed by Primus
Capital L.L.C. for an aggregate purchase price equal to approximately $131.5
million. The Company leased such properties for a base term equal to
approximately 20 years with fixed rate options to extend each lease for up to
an additional 25 years in five, five-year increments. The properties conveyed
consist of larger multiplex theatre formats, eight of which were located in
Texas, one in California, two in Colorado and one in Indiana.
FOREIGN DEVELOPMENTS
On November 18, 1997, Cinemark International executed a credit agreement
with Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association for itself and as
Administrative Agent, as amended in December 1997 (the "Cinemark International
Credit Agreement"). The Cinemark International Credit Agreement is a revolving
credit facility and provides for a loan to Cinemark International of $30
million aggregate. The Cinemark International Credit Agreement is secured by a
pledge of substantially all of the stock of Cinemark Mexico and an
unconditional guaranty by Cinemark Mexico. Cinemark International loaned the
$30 million proceeds from the Cinemark International Credit Agreement to
Cinemark Mexico evidenced by a five year promissory note bearing interest at a
rate equal to 10% per annum. Cinemark Mexico utilized such funds to repurchase
all of its outstanding 12% Senior Subordinated PIK Notes at a purchase price
equal to $99.53 per $100 principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest up
to the date of the repurchase. As of March 27, 1998, Cinemark International
has borrowed $30 million under the Cinemark International Credit Agreement and
the effective interest rate on such borrowings was 7.2% per annum. The
Cinemark International Credit Agreement requires Cinemark International to
comply with certain financial covenants and other covenants customary for this
type of financing.
(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 fifth largest motion picture exhibitor in North America
in terms of the number of screens in operation. At March 27, 1998, the Company
operated 1,890 screens in 195 theatres located in 30 states, Canada, Chile,

consisting of 1,549 screens in 152 "first run" theatres and 341 screens in 43
"discount" theatres. Of the Company's 1,890 screens, 1,453 (or 77%) were built
by the Company during the 1990's, and, as a result, the Company believes it
operates one of the most
2
<PAGE> 5
modern theatre circuits in the industry. All of the Company's theatres are
multiplex facilities with approximately 94% of the Company's screens located in
theatres of six or more screens. The Company believes that its ratio of screens
to theatres (9.7 to 1 at March 27, 1998) is the highest of the five largest
theatre circuits in the U.S. and is more than 50% higher than the industry
average. From its fiscal year ended December 31, 1992 through the fiscal year
ended December 31, 1997, the Company has increased consolidated revenues
approximately 123% from $194.7 million to $434.6 million and has increased
EBITDA (as defined herein) approximately 176% from $32.1 million to $88.5
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 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 moviegoing 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.
OVERVIEW OF THE THEATRE INDUSTRY
The theatre exhibition industry in the U.S. is comprised of approximately
490 exhibitors, approximately 257 of which operate four or more screens. As of
May 1997, the 10 largest exhibitors (in terms of number of screens) operated
approximately 52% of the total screens, with no one exhibitor operating more
than 10% of the total screens.
U.S. box office sales of approximately $6.4 billion in 1997 was a record
for the industry. Overall attendance has remained stable during this decade
with no single year varying more than 10% from the average. The Company
believes that the primary reason for the variances in the year-to-year
attendance is the overall audience appeal of the films released. The following
table represents the results of a survey by the National Association of Theatre
Owners outlining the historical trends in U.S. theatre attendance, average
ticket prices and box office sales for the last eight years.

</TABLE>
Theatrical exhibition is the primary distribution channel for new motion
picture releases. The Company believes that the successful theatrical release
of a movie abroad and in "downstream" distribution channels, such as home video
and pay-per-view, network and syndicated television, is largely dependent on
its successful theatrical release in the U.S. The Company further believes
that the emergence of new motion picture distribution channels has not
adversely affected attendance at theatres and that these distribution channels
do not provide an experience comparable to the out-of-home experience of
viewing a movie in a theatre. The Company believes that the public will
continue to recognize the advantages of viewing a movie on a large screen with
superior audio and visual quality, while enjoying a variety of concessions and
sharing the experience with a large audience.
The Company believes that as a result of increased revenues from the
successful release of films in both movie theatres and other distribution
channels, major film production companies have increased and will continue to
increase the number of films being produced. Film producers have increased
their revenues from these distribution channels by approximately 237% since
1985 to $19.9 billion in 1996. The increased revenue potential from film
distribution in recent years can be attributed to increased demand resulting
from the domestic and international growth of the movie theatre industry and
the home video industry, and the significantly increased channel capacity
created by enhanced cable and satellite-based transmission systems. Moreover,
the Company believes independent producers and distributors, such as Gramercy
Pictures, Turner Pictures (which includes New Line Cinemas and Castle Rock
Entertainment) and Dreamworks SKG, the highly-publicized partnership among
Jeffrey Katzenberg, Steven Spielberg and David Geffen, should help increase
motion picture production. Additionally, increased revenues permit major film
production companies to create "event" films such as Jurassic Park, Twister,
Independence Day and Titanic which utilize the latest advances in computer
technology to enhance production quality and special effects. The Company
believes that an increasing supply of quality feature films and "event" films
exhibited with advanced projection and stereo sound equipment such as Digital
Theatre Sound Systems, Dolby Digital Sound and Sony Dynamic Digital Sound will
enhance the moviegoing experience and will increase the theatre attendance of
exhibitors with modern multiplex theatres designed to exhibit such motion
pictures.
Increased international distribution is also producing important sources of
revenue for film distributors and growth opportunities for exhibitors. The
international market share of total box office receipts in 1996 was 50% up from
30.4% in 1985. Since 1985, international box office receipts have grown at a
11.9% compounded annual rate. The Company believes that many international
markets for theatrical exhibition, which have historically been underserved due
to antiquated and/or run-down theatres, will continue to experience rapid
growth as additional multiplex theatres are introduced.
In addition, the Company believes that certain demographic trends favor the
theatre exhibition industry. Information obtained from the U.S. Bureau of
Census indicates that the number of 12 to 20 year olds in the U.S., the largest
moviegoing segment of the population, is projected to grow an aggregate of 7.5%
through the year 2000. Furthermore, according to MPAA, the number of patrons
over 40 years old as a percentage of the total movie audience has more than
doubled from approximately 14% in 1986 to approximately 33% in 1996. The
4
<PAGE> 7
Company believes that film producers have recognized the importance of this
segment of the population and are producing an increased number of films
primarily targeted to this more mature audience, including films such as
Forrest Gump, Apollo 13, Sense and Sensibility, The English Patient and As Good
as it Gets.
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 underserved 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
expand its construction of larger "megaplex" entertainment centers in major
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 24 months, the Company has developed fifteen megaplexes (270 screens),
each exceeding 65,000 square feet and featuring 15 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 exploit discount theatre niche. The Company intends to maintain
its discount theatre operations (admission of $1 to $2 per ticket) 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's multiplex discount
theatres offer 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,
1998, approximately 20% of the Company's screens were housed in its discount
theatres.
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 primarily 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. 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 has begun
developing multiplex theatres directly or through joint venture arrangements
with local partners in Argentina, Brazil, Peru, Ecuador, El Salvador and Costa
Rica.

<PAGE> 8
OPERATIONS
The Company's corporate office, which employed approximately 160
individuals as of March 27, 1998, 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 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 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 65,000 square
feet, feature 15 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 majority of the films produced in 1997 had digital
soundtracks available as an alternative to the standard stereo soundtrack. More
than 90% 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
6
<PAGE> 9
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 110 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 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.
Concessions
Concession sales are the Company's second largest revenue source,
representing 34.4% of total revenues for 1997. The Company has devoted
considerable management effort to increasing concession sales and improving the
operating income margins from concession sales. These efforts include
implementation of the following strategies:
o Optimization of product mix. The Company's primary concession products
are various sizes of popcorn, soft drinks, candy and hot dogs, all of which the
Company sells at each of its theatres. However, different varieties and brands
of candy and soft drinks are offered at theatres based on preferences in that
particular geographic region. The Company has also implemented "combo-meals,"
and "movie meals" for children and senior citizens, both of which offer a pre-
selected assortment of concession products.

<PAGE> 10
o Introduction of new products. The Company continues to introduce new
concession products designed to attract additional concession purchases. New
offerings have recently included bottled water, bulk candy, frozen yogurt and
ice cream. Additionally, the Company has introduced pizza, pastries and
specialty coffee in many of its megaplexes.
o Staff training. Employees are continually trained in "cross-selling" and
"upselling" techniques. This training occurs through situational role-playing
conducted at the Company's "Customer Service University" as well as continual
on-the-job training. Individual theatre managers receive a portion of their
compensation based on concession sales at their theatres and are therefore
motivated to maximize concession purchases.
o Theatre design. Newer theatres are designed to include at least two to
three concession stands, with each stand having multiple service stations to
make it easier to serve larger numbers of customers rapidly. Strategic
placement of large concession stands within theatres heightens their
visibility, aids in reducing the length of concession lines and improves
traffic flow around the concession stands.
o Cost control. The Company negotiates prices for its concession supplies
directly with concession vendors on a bulk rate basis and distributes its
concession supplies through a national concession contract distributor. The
concession distributor provides inventory and distribution services to the
theatres, which place volume orders directly with the concession distributor.
The concession distributor is paid a fee for such service equal to a percentage
of the Company's concession supply purchases. The Company believes that
utilization of a concession distributor is more cost effective than
establishing a concession warehousing network owned by the Company.
Marketing
In order to attract customers, the Company relies principally upon
newspaper display advertisements (substantially paid for by film distributors)
and newspaper directory film schedules (generally paid for by the exhibitor) to
inform its patrons of film titles and show times. Radio and television
advertising spots (generally paid for by film distributors) are used to promote
certain motion pictures and special events. The Company also exhibits previews
in its theatres of coming attractions and films presently playing on the other
screens which it operates in the same theatre or market.
Theatre Management
Each theatre is managed by one theatre manager and a number of assistant
managers. A typical ten screen movie theatre has approximately 40 employees and
two to three assistant managers, while a 16-screen megaplex has approximately
200 employees, including eight assistant managers. The theatre manager is paid
a salary and a commission based upon concession sales. A theatre manager can
increase the profitability of the theatre and his/her own compensation by
ensuring that the staff is properly trained to encourage patrons to "trade up"
in size or purchase additional concession items. The goal of a theatre manager
is to operate a theatre in the most efficient and profitable manner in order to
be promoted from managing a smaller theatre to managing a megaplex.
The Company believes strongly in customer service and it promotes this
through employee empowerment. Each theatre employee is authorized to deal with
all customer needs and complaints in a variety of ways, including offering free
tickets or free concession items, if necessary. Prior to peak seasons, the
Company teaches its employees customer service at its Customer Service
University training program. The Customer Service University is an active
training program consisting of role-playing exercises as well as typical
classroom instruction.

Management Information Systems
The Company has developed its own point of sale ("POS") management
information system to further enhance its ability to maximize revenues, control
costs and efficiently manage the Company's theatre circuit. The POS information
system provides corporate management with a detailed daily admission and
concession revenue report by the start of business the following morning. This
information allows management to make real-time adjustments to movie schedules,
prolong runs or increase the number of screens on which successful movies are
being played and substitute films when gross receipts cease to meet expected
goals. Real-time seating and box office information is available to box office
personnel, making it possible for theatre management to avoid overselling a
particular film and providing faster and more accurate response to customer
inquiries regarding showings and available seating. The POS information system
also tracks concession sales and provides weekly in-theatre inventory reports,
leading to better inventory management and control.
Cinemark is currently developing a Windows based version of our POS system
for our larger domestic and international theatres. This enhanced system will
have multiple language capabilities, unlimited ticket pricing options, and the
ability to process credit cards. The Windows platform permits the addition of
barcode scanners, pole displays, touch screens, credit card readers and other
equipment specific to individual country requirements. Cinemark anticipates
initial deployment of this system during the third quarter of 1998.
INTERNATIONAL
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. The Company's strategy in these markets is to form partnerships or
joint ventures with local operators, sharing risk and obtaining valuable market
insight.
Due to the enormous potential of the international markets, Cinemark
International is introducing state-of-the-art multiplex theatres to
"under-screened" international markets. As of March 27, 1998, Cinemark
International operates twenty-nine first-run theatres (287 screens) in Mexico,
Chile, Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Ecuador and El Salvador, with an aggregate of
24 theatres (219 screens) scheduled to open or begin construction during the
remainder of 1998. Additionally, Cinemark International operates two discount
theatres (24 screens) in Alberta, Canada. 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
Cinemark International, through its subsidiary Cinemark Mexico (USA), Inc.
("Cinemark Mexico"), is developing state-of-the-art multiplex theatres
comparable to theatres developed by the Company in the U.S. Cinemark Mexico's
operations are conducted through its subsidiary Cinemark de Mexico, S.A. de
C.V. Cinemark Mexico currently operates 13 theatres (141 screens) and has
begun or intends to begin construction on four theatres (32 screens) in 1998.
The Company manages all of Cinemark Mexico's theatres pursuant to a management
agreement. Cinemark Mexico's theatres are staffed primarily with Mexican
nationals who report to the Company's regional and corporate office personnel.
The Company provides all corporate operating functions, including film booking
and accounting.
Chile
In November 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 the licensing of the
Company's technology, trademark and name. The joint venture conducts its
business through Cinemark Chile, S.A. 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
three theatres (25 screens), and plans to open or begin construction on four
additional theatres (34 screens) in 1998.

<PAGE> 12
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 ("Prodecine"), 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 owned by Cinemark Investments Argentina S.A. and Prodecine
(which acquired DASA's interest in the joint venture). Cinemark International
and Conate each own 50% of Cinemark Investments Argentina S.A. Cinemark
Argentina S.A. currently operates three theatres (28 screens) and intends to
begin construction on three theatres (28 screens) in 1998.
In December 1997, the Company formed a wholly-owned Argentine subsidiary,
Cinemark Rio de la Plata Associates S.R.L. through which the Company plans to
begin construction on three theatres (31 screens) during the remainder of 1998.
Brazil
In 1996, Cinemark LTDA was organized as an indirect subsidiary of Cinemark
International. In November 1997, Cinemark International, through a
wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into a joint venture agreement with Brazilian
strategic partners and converted Cinemark LTDA to a Brazilian corporation,
Cinemark Brasil S.A., which is approximately 60% indirectly owned by Cinemark
International and approximately 40% owned by Brazilian strategic partners.
Cinemark Brazil currently operates five theatres (55 screens) and expects to
begin construction on six theatres (64) screens in 1998.
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 currently
operates two theatres (16 screens).
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. currently operates one theatre (12 screens) and plans
to begin construction on two theatres (16 screens) during the remainder of
1998.
Central America
In January 1997, Cinemark International entered into a joint venture
agreement with Cines de Centroamerica to develop state-of-the-art multiplex
theatres throughout Central America. The joint venture provides for the
licensing of the Company's technology, trademarks and name. The Central
America joint venture currently operates one theatre (eight screens) in Costa
Rica and one theatre (two screens) in El Salvador. During 1998, the Central
American joint venture plans to begin construction on two theatres (14
screens).

COMPETITION
The Company is the fifth largest motion picture exhibitor in North America
in terms of the number of screens in operation. The Company competes against
both local and national exhibitors, some of which may have substantially
greater financial resources than the Company.
In film zones where the Company has little or no direct competition
(approximately 70% 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. Where the Company faces competition, it usually
licenses films based on an allocation process. The Company currently operates
in approximately 110 first run film zones in the U.S. The Company believes that
no individual film zone is material to the Company. See "-- Operations -- Film
Licensing." 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, 1998, the Company had approximately 7,000 employees in the
U.S., approximately 15% of whom are full time employees in the U.S. and 85% of
whom are part time employees. The Company is a party to collective bargaining
agreements with five unions of which approximately 10 employees are members.
The Company's international operations typically utilize union labor. 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 where readily achievable with current regulations
relating to accommodating the disabled. The Company believes that the cost of
complying with the ADA will not be material.

Item 2: Properties.
Of the 1,579 screens operated by the Company in the U.S. at March 27, 1998,
22 theatres (270 screens) were owned, 139 theatres (1,272 screens) are leased
pursuant to building leases, one theatre (10 screens) is leased pursuant to
ground leases and two theatres (27 screens) are 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 27 of the Company's
theatre leases (covering 135 screens) have remaining terms (including renewal
periods) of less than five years and approximately 54 of the Company's theatre
leases (covering 654 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, 1998, the Company operated 31 theatres (311 screens)
outside of the U.S. Of the 31 theatres operated outside of the U.S., 30
theatres (299 screens) are leased pursuant to ground or building leases and one
theatre (12 screens) is 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.
El Paso Litigation
On December 10, 1997, Jose G. Lara, E.J. Lozano, Alfredo Juarez, G. Tim
Hervey, Earl L. Harbeck, Volar Center for Independent Living, Luis Enrique
Chew, Desert Adapt and Myra Murillo filed suit in the United States District
Court, Western District of Texas, El Paso Division, against the Company
alleging certain violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (the
"ADA"). The Company has filed an answer denying the allegations and claims
contained in the suit. Although the Company cannot predict the outcome of such
litigation, management believes that the Company's potential liability with
respect to such proceeding is not material in the aggregate to the Company's
financial position, results of operation and cash flows.
Austin Litigation
On July 25, 1997, David Witte, Rona Schnall and Laura Brown filed suit in
District Court No. 345 of Travis County, Texas against the Company alleging
certain violations of the ADA relating to the accessibility of a certain
theatre to patrons using wheelchairs. The Company is currently negotiating a
settlement agreement with the plaintiffs.
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 liability with respect to proceedings currently
pending is not material in the aggregate to the Company's consolidated
financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
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, 1998, there were 12 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

operating performance or as a measure of liquidity.
(6) For the purpose of calculating the ratio of earnings to fixed charges,
(i) earnings consist of income (loss) before income taxes and
extraordinary items plus fixed charges excluding capitalized interest
and (ii) fixed charges consist of interest expense, capitalized
interest, amortization of debt issue and debt discount and the portion
of rental expense which is deemed to be representative of the interest
factor.

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 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, 1995, 1996 and 1997 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, 1997 AND DECEMBER 31, 1996
Revenues. Revenues in 1997 increased to $434.6 million from $341.7
million, a 27.2% increase. The increase in revenues is primarily attributable
to a 16.4% increase in attendance as the result of the first full year of
operations of 237 screens opened in 1996 and the net addition of 181 screens in
1997. Revenues were also positively affected by an increase in admission and
concession revenues per patron of 7.2%. Revenues per average screen increased
10.4% to $285,357 for 1997 period from $258,495 for 1996.
Cost of Operations. Cost of operations, as a percentage of revenues,
decreased to 74.2% in 1997 from 76.7% in 1996. The decrease as a percentage of
revenues resulted from a decrease in concession supplies as a percentage of
concession revenues to 15.1% in 1997 from 15.8% in 1996, a decrease in salaries
and wages as a percentage of revenues to 12.9% in 1997 from 13.7% in 1996, a
decrease in facility leases as a percentage of revenues to 8.9% in 1997 from
10.1% in 1996 and a decrease in utilities and other as a percentage of revenues
to 13.0% in 1997 from 14.6% in 1996 which was partially offset by an increase
in film rentals as a percentage of admission revenues to 50.2% in 1997 from
49.2% in 1996.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses,
as a percentage of revenues, decreased to 6.4% in 1997 from 6.9% in 1996. The
decrease is primarily attributable to the 27.2% increase in revenues from
screen additions and increases in admissions and concessions per patron. The
absolute level of general and administrative expenses increased to $27.6
million for 1997 from $23.5 million for 1996. The increase in general and
administrative expenses is attributed to costs (primarily salaries and wages)
associated with the Company's expansion program.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased
$5.8 million in 1997 to $27.6 million from $21.8 million in 1996. The increase
includes a $2.2 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 increased $3.6 million for 1997. The increase is a result of the net
addition of $171.5 million in theatre property and equipment during 1997, a
45.5% increase over 1996. 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 46.6% to $35.6 million (including the
capitalization of $2.2 million of interest to properties under construction)
from $24.3 million in 1996 (including the capitalization of $3.9 million of
interest to properties under construction). The increase in interest costs
incurred during 1997 was due principally to an increase in average debt
outstanding resulting from borrowings under the Company's Credit Facility and
the issuance of the Senior Subordinated Indenture.
Other Gains and Losses. Other gains and losses for 1996 of $11.1 million
is 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 principle amount. As a result, an extraordinary loss
of $8.9 million (net of related tax benefit) was recognized in connection with
the premium paid and the write-off of the unamortized debt issue cost
associated with the Senior Notes repurchased. The remaining loss is
attributable to the refinancing of the Company's bank line of credit during
1996.
19
<PAGE> 22
Net Income. Net income before extraordinary items of $15.0 million for
1997 and $14.6 million for 1996 included the capitalized losses of foreign
subsidiary operations of $2.3 million (net of minority interest)and $2.8
million (net of minority interest), respectively.
Income Taxes. Income taxes decreased to $10.7 million in 1997 compared to
$12.3 million in 1996, a 13% decrease, resulting primarily from the decrease in
income before taxes and permanent differences associated with the sale of
certain assets in 1996. The Company's effective rate for 1997 decreased to
41.5% from 45.8% in 1996. The effective rates reflect a reduction in overall
foreign losses which are fully reserved and a reduction in other permanent
differences, primarily goodwill.
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 in 1996. 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
to $5.9 million in 1996 to $21.8 million from $15.9 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 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.
20
<PAGE> 23
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.
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.
INFLATION AND FOREIGN CURRENCY
The Mexican currency experienced a significant devaluation in December 1994
and 1995. 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, 1997.
In 1997, generally accepted accounting principles require that the U.S.
dollar be used as the functional currency of the Company's Mexican and
Brazilian subsidiaries for U.S. reporting purposes. As a result, fluctuations
in the peso and real during 1997 affected the Company's investment in Mexico
and Brazil were charged to exchange gain or loss rather than to cumulative
foreign currency translation adjustment included in shareholders equity. The
Company recorded an exchange loss of less than $100,000 during 1997 as the
Mexican peso and Brazilian real were stable during the year.
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 $51.2 million in 1997 compared to $58.8 million
in 1996 and $36.1 million in 1995.
The Company's theatres are typically equipped with modern projection and
sound equipment, with approximately 77% of the screens operated by the Company
having been built during the 1990's. Maintenance capital expenditures for all
theatres operated by the Company for 1997 were $5.9 million or approximately
1.4% 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 $219.1 million, $177.4 million and $80.3 million in 1997, 1996
and 1995, 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 $185.6 million, $119.7 million and $32 million in 1997,
1996 and 1995, respectively. During 1997, the Company opened in the U.S. 12
theatres (165 screens) and added an aggregate of 11 screens to two existing
theatres. In addition,
21
<PAGE> 24
as of March 27, 1998, the Company opened five theatres (78 screens), opened a
four screen expansion to one theatre and has approximately 17 theatres (298
screens) under construction or scheduled to begin construction and be completed
by the end of 1998. Certain of these theatres will be megaplexes which may cost
in excess of $15 million per theatre. The Company also plans to open
approximately 300 screens in the U.S. in 1999. The Company currently estimates
that its capital expenditures for the development of these approximately 680
screens in the U.S. in 1998 and 1999 will be approximately $350 million. As of
March 27, 1998, the Company had expended approximately $70.6 million toward the
development of these screens. The Company plans to fund capital expenditures
for its development from cash flow from operations and borrowings under the
Credit Facility. Actual expenditures for theatre development and acquisitions
during 1998 and 1999 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 the Series B Notes which bear
interest at a rate of 9-5/8% per annum, payable semi-annually on February 1 and
August 1 of each year. The Series B 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 Series B Notes (net of
discount, fees and expenses) were approximately $193.2 million. The proceeds
from the Series B Notes were used to repurchase 98.7% of the Company's $125
million aggregate principal amount 12% Senior Notes due 2002 (the "Senior
Notes") pursuant to a tender offer which expired on August 15, 1996. The
Senior Notes were purchased at a premium of $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 June 2,
1997 the Company redeemed the remaining outstanding Senior Notes ($1.6
million). The Senior Notes were redeemed at a premium of $1,060 per $1,000
principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to the date of
redemption.
In January 1997, the Company repurchased an aggregate of 267 shares of
Class B Common Stock from a retiring employee for approximately $.5 million.
In April 1997, the Company repurchased an aggregate of 1,242 shares of Class B
Common Stock issued to optionholders upon the exercise of options in April
1996. The aggregate purchase price for such shares was $2.2 million. In June
1997, the Company repurchased options to purchase an aggregate 737 shares of
Class B Common Stock from retiring employees. The aggregate purchase price for
such options was approximately $1.3 million.
On June 26, 1997, the Company issued the Series D Notes due 2008 which bear
interest at a rate of 9-5/8% per annum, payable semi-annually on February 1 and
August 1 of each year. The Series D Notes were issued at 103% of the principal
face amount. The net proceeds to the Company from the issuance of the Series D
Notes (net of fees and expenses) was approximately $77.1 million. The proceeds
of the Series D Notes were applied to reduce the Company's indebtedness under
the Credit Facility.
In 1992, the Company formed Cinemark International to develop and acquire
theatres in international markets. As of March 27, 1998, Cinemark
International operated 29 theatres (287 screens) principally in Latin America.
The following table summarizes Cinemark International's holdings in each
international market, the number of theatres and screens in such market as of
March 27, 1998 and the number of theatres and screens under construction in
1998.

</TABLE>
Cinemark International plans to invest up to an additional $75 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.
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. As of March 27, 1998, Cinemark
International and New Wave Investments AVV, an unaffiliated Aruba corporation
owned by Mexican citizens ("New Wave"), own 95.6% (95% 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, 1998,
Cinemark Mexico operated 13 theatres (141 screens) and plans to open or begin
construction on four theatres (32 screens) in 1998.
On November 18, 1997, Cinemark International executed a credit agreement
with Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association for itself and as
Administrative Agent as amended in December 1997 (the "Cinemark International
Credit Agreement"). The Cinemark International Credit Agreement is a revolving
credit facility and provides for a loan to Cinemark International of up to $30
million in the aggregate. The Cinemark International Credit Agreement is
secured by a pledge of substantially all of the stock of Cinemark Mexico and an
unconditional guaranty of Cinemark Mexico. Pursuant to the terms of the
Cinemark International Credit Agreement, funds borrowed bear interest at a rate
per annum equal to the Offshore Rate (as defined in the Cinemark International
Credit Agreement) or the Base Rate (as defined in the Cinemark International
Credit Agreement) as the case may be, plus the Applicable Margin (as defined in
the Cinemark International Credit Agreement). As of March 27, 1998, Cinemark
International has borrowed $30 million under the Cinemark International Credit
Agreement and the effective interest rate on such borrowings was 7.2% per
annum, the proceeds of which were used to repurchase all of the outstanding 12%
Senior Subordinated PIK Notes of Cinemark Mexico.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
$105 Million Note Offering
On January 14, 1998, the Company issued $105 million aggregate principal
amount of 8-1/2% Series A Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008 (the "Series A
Notes") pursuant to Rule 144A (the "Offering"). The net proceeds of the
Offering were used by the Company to reduce the Company's indebtedness under
the then existing credit facility. The Company exchanged the Series A Notes on
March 17, 1998 for 8-1/2% Series B Senior
23
<PAGE> 26
Subordinated Notes (the "Senior Subordinated Notes"), which Senior
Subordinated Notes have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended.
Credit Agreement
On February 12, 1998, 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 $350.0 million in the aggregate.
The Credit Facility is a reducing revolving credit facility; therefore, at the
end of each quarter during the calendar year 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004, the
aggregate commitment shall automatically be reduced by $8,750,000, $11,812,500,
$13,125,000, $12,031,000 and $6,562,500, 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.
Sale Leaseback
On February 24, 1998, the Company completed a sale leaseback
transaction with affiliates of Primus Capital L.L.C. (the "Sale Leaseback").
Pursuant to the Sale Leaseback, the Company sold the land, buildings and site
improvements of twelve theatre properties to special purpose entities formed by
Primus Capital L.L.C. for an aggregate purchase price equal to approximately
$131.5 million. The Company leased such properties for a base term equal to
approximately 20 years with fixed rate options to extend each lease for up to an
additional 25 years in five, five-year increments. The properties conveyed
consist of larger multiplex theatre formats, eight of which were located in
Texas, one in California, two in Colorado and one in Indiana.
Year 2000 Compliance
The Company recognizes that the arrival of the Year 2000 poses a unique
worldwide challenge to the ability of all systems to recognize the date change
from December 31, 1999 to January 1, 2000 and, like other companies, has
assessed and is updating its computer applications and business processes to
provide for their continued functionality. An assessment of the readiness of
external entities which it interfaces with, such as vendors, counterparties,
customers, payment systems, and others, is ongoing.
The Company expects that the principal costs will be those associated
with the remediation and testing of its computer applications. This effort is
under way across the Company, and is following a process of inventory, scoping
and analysis, modification, testing and certification, and implementation. The
Company does not anticipate that the related overall costs will be material and
will be funded through operating cash flow. The Company anticipates completing
the Year 2000 project by no later than June 30, 1999, which is prior to any
anticipated impact on its operating systems.

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

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,

Class B Common Stock.
During 1997, the Company granted options under the Plan to purchase 260
shares of Class B Common Stock of the Company at an exercise price of $1.00 per
share. The options expire 10 years from the date of grant. The Company
accrued $1.3 million for unearned compensation and will amortize this noncash
expense at a rate of approximately $260,000 per year during the five year
vesting period for the options granted.
In April 1996, employees exercised options to purchase 1,509 shares of
Class B Common Stock of the Company. In January 1997, the Company repurchased
an aggregate 267 shares of Class B Common Stock from a retiring employee for

fixtures located at such theatre for an aggregate purchase price of $2.6
million. Mr. Mitchell's brother is a controlling member in Mid States
Development, L.L.C. and is the sole shareholder of Starplex Cinemas, Inc.
SHAREHOLDERS' AGREEMENT
The Company entered into the Shareholders' Agreement dated March 12, 1996
with Mr. Mitchell, his affiliates and Cypress (the "Shareholders' Agreement").
Among other things, the Shareholders' Agreement provides that, subject to
certain conditions, the Company must obtain (with certain exceptions) the
consent of CALP for certain corporate acts including, but not limited to,
amendments to the Articles of Incorporation of the Company, approval of annual
budgets under certain circumstances, asset dispositions or acquisitions in
excess of specified amounts, merger or consolidation of the Company, incurrence
of indebtedness over specified amounts, certain stock redemptions or dividends,
transactions with affiliates over specified amounts, certain management changes
or new compensation plans, financing theatres through limited partnerships,
settlements of litigation over specified amounts and issuance of common stock
under certain conditions. The Shareholders' Agreement also provides that
Cypress may not convert its Class B Common Stock to Class A Common Stock unless
certain events occur such as a Change of Control (as defined in the
Shareholders' Agreement) or the consummation of a public offering of the
Company's common stock. The above-described provisions terminate on the earlier
of (i) the public owning 25% or more of the common stock of the Company, (ii)
the merger of the Company with and into any publicly traded company or (iii)
ten years after the date of the Shareholders' Agreement. The Shareholders'
Agreement also contains a voting agreement pursuant to which Mr. Mitchell
agrees to vote his shares of common stock to elect certain designees of CALP
to the Board of Directors of the Company.
Mr. Mitchell also agreed that in the event any corporate opportunity is
presented to Mr. Mitchell or any of his affiliates to acquire or enter into any
business transaction involving the motion picture exhibition business that
would be significant to the Company, he would submit such opportunity to the
Board of Directors of the Company before taking any action.
The Shareholders' Agreement further provides that the shareholders agree to
form a new corporation as the parent corporation of the Company and to
contribute their respective shares for like shares of this new corporation. The
Company is currently pursuing plans to create such a holding company.
INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS
The Company has adopted provisions in its Articles of Incorporation and
Bylaws which provide for indemnification of its officers and directors to the
maximum extent permitted under the Texas Business Corporation Act. In
addition, the Company has entered into separate indemnification agreements with
each of its directors which requires the Company, among other things, to
indemnify them against certain liabilities that may

arise by reason of their status or service as directors to the maximum extent
permitted under the Texas Business Corporation Act. The Company has obtained
an insurance policy providing for indemnification of officers and directors of
the Company and certain other persons against liabilities and expenses incurred
by any of them in certain stated proceedings and under certain stated
conditions.

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, 1996 and 1997, and the related
consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity and cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1997. 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, 1996 and 1997, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1997, 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.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
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 $3,928,454 and
$2,152,816 of interest incurred during development and construction and
capitalized in 1996 and 1997, 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. The Company determined that impairment charges of $2,381,998 and
$2,213,696 were required for certain theatres in 1996 and 1997, respectively.
For purposes of this calculation, fair value of operating theatres was
determined based on cash flows.
INTANGIBLE ASSETS represent primarily the excess of cost over the fair
values of the net assets of theatre businesses acquired, less accumulated
amortization ($8,616,821 and $9,454,265 at December 31, 1996 and 1997,
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 outstanding during each period, including, when
applicable, the Class B common shares. On December 31, 1997, the Company
adopted SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share", which established new standards for
computing and presenting earnings per share ("EPS") by replacing the
presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of basic EPS. Primary EPS
included common stock equivalents while basic EPS excludes them. This change
simplifies the computation of EPS and requires the dual presentation of basic
and diluted EPS on the face of the income statement for all entities with
complex capital structures. Prior year amounts have been restated to reflect
the new method of calculation.
Earnings per common and common share equivalent share were computed as
follows:

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.
2. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
The cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment in shareholders'
equity of $11,129,451 and $11,120,575 at December 31, 1996 and 1997,
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, 1997, the total
assets of Cinemark de Mexico were $46,484,210.
In 1997 the Company was required to utilize the U.S. dollar as the
functional currency of Cinemark de Mexico and Cinemark LTDA for U.S. reporting
purposes due to the highly inflationary economies of Mexico and Brazil. Thus,
devaluations in the peso and real during 1997 that affected the Company's
investments are charged to exchange loss rather than to the cumulative
adjustment account.
3. ACQUISITIONS AND AFFILIATE ACTIVITY
In 1996, Cinemark International acquired an additional 2,661,450 shares of
common stock of Cinemark Mexico for $10.0 million. As of December 31, 1997,
Cinemark International owns a cumulative interest of 95.6% (95.0% on a fully
diluted basis) of Cinemark Mexico. In 1996, Cinemark International also
contributed funding of $1,200,000 to its Brazilian subsidiary, $600,000 to its
Argentine affiliate and $100,000 to its Peruvian affiliate. Additional funding
contributed in 1997 consisted of $24,800,000 to its 60% owned Brazilian
subsidiary, $1,251,000 to its 60% owned Ecuadorian subsidiary, $3,900,000 to
its Argentine affiliate, $1,400,000 to its Peruvian affiliate, $501,000 to its
El Salvadorian affiliate, and $6,535,948 to its Japanese affiliate.
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 1997, Cinemark
International and the other 50% owner of Cinemark Chile each contributed
$1,500,000 to fund additional theatre construction.
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.
In September 1997, Cinemark International paid $1.5 million to Cinemark del
Peru in exchange for a 8% note receivable, due September 1999.

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 $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. In June 1997, the Company redeemed the remaining
outstanding Senior Notes at a premium of $1,060 per $1,000 principal amount,
resulting in an extraordinary loss of $53,789, net of related tax benefit.
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
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.
In June 1997, the Company issued $75 million of Senior Subordinated Notes
due 2008 ("New Subordinated Notes") The New Subordinated Notes are
substantially identical in all material respects to the Subordinated Notes,
including rate of interest. The New Subordinated Notes were issued at 103.0%
of the principal face amount (a premium of $30.00 per $1,000 principal amount).
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 7). 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.
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 7) 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 in 1996.

associated with the New Mexico Notes.
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, 199y
and 1996, was 7.3% and 7.4%, 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 prior to maturity and
issuance of preferred stock and other indebtedness; and other restrictive
covenants. This credit facility amended a 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.
REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY, CINEMARK INTERNATIONAL - In November 1997,
Cinemark International executed a credit agreement (the "Cinemark International
Credit Agreement") with a bank. As amended in December 1997, the Cinemark
International Credit Agreement is a revolving credit facility and provides for
a loan to Cinemark International of up to $30,000,000 in the aggregate with a
maturity date of November 17, 1999. The Cinemark International Credit
Agreement is secured by a pledge of substantially all of the stock of Cinemark
Mexico and an unconditional guaranty by Cinemark Mexico. Pursuant to the terms
of the Cinemark International Credit Agreement, funds borrowed bear interest at
a rate per annum equal to a defined floating rate, adjusted in accordance with
certain financial ratios. As of December 31, 1997, Cinemark International has
borrowed $30 million under the Cinemark International Credit Agreement at an
effective rate of 7.6% per annum.
Long-term debt at December 31, 1997, matures as follows: $30,730 in 1998;
$32,590 in 1999; $32,368 in 2000; $35,300 in 2001; $38,420 in 2002; and
$463,331,331 thereafter.
The estimated fair value of the Company's long-term debt of $463.5 million
at December 31, 1997, was approximately $462.1 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 $9,741,136 and $9,347,303, net of
accumulated amortization of $2,664,766 and $3,374,238 related to the
Subordinated Notes, the New Mexican Notes, the Credit Facility and the Cinemark
International Credit Agreement, are included in deferred charges at December
31, 1996 and 1997, respectively. The 1996 and 1997 periods include

credit, repurchase of Senior Notes and repurchase of New Mexican Notes.
THEATRE DEVELOPMENT ADVANCE - The current portion of long-term liabilities
also includes $350,000 at December 31, 1996 and 1997, 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 $373,562 at December 31, 1997,
will be repayable based on the future operations of a theatre opened in 1992.
6. CAPITAL STOCK
COMMON AND PREFERRED STOCKS - Class A common shareholders have exclusive
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
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, 1997, the Company has reserved Class A common stock in the
amount of 176,802 shares for potential conversions of outstanding Class B
common stock and 7,765 shares for potential conversions of Class B common stock

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 vested on June 1, 1997 and 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 in 1995, with unearned compensation expense
of $276,000 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 $2,278,150, $1,127,117 and $1,073,296 was recorded in 1995,
1996 and 1997, respectively. Compensation expense under this stock option plan
was $1,591,022, $1,324,856 and $1,898,836 in 1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively.
The Company applies APB Opinion 25 and related interpretations in
accounting for the Company's stock 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.
The Company repurchased 174 and 2,246 shares of Class B common stock as
treasury stock in 1996 and 1997, respectively.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
Warrants are exercisable at $.001 per share subject to the following terms and
expire on August 1, 2003. At any time after January 31, 1998, Cinemark Mexico
may redeem the Warrants in whole or in part at their appraised value. If the
Warrants have not been redeemed by August 1, 1998, the Company must offer to
purchase one-third of the Warrants on each of July 31, 1998, 1999, and 2000,
utilizing the appraised value on such dates. At December 31, 1997, Cinemark
Mexico has reserved 22,222 shares of common stock for the potential conversion
of the Warrants.
8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
LEASES - The Company conducts a significant part of its theatre operations
in leased premises under noncancelable operating leases with terms of 5 to 30
years. In addition to the minimum annual lease payment, most of these leases
provide for contingent rentals based on operating results and require the
payment of taxes, insurance and other costs applicable to the property.
Generally, these leases include renewal options for various periods at
stipulated rates. Some leases also provide for escalating rent payments
throughout the lease term. Deferred lease expenses of $11,580,629 and
$13,064,630 at December 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively, have been provided to
account for lease expenses on a straight-line basis, where lease payments are
not made on such basis. Rent expense for the years ended December 31, 1995,
1996 and 1997, totaled $31,273,367, $34,841,041 and $39,190,388 respectively.
Future minimum payments under noncancelable operating leases with initial
or remaining terms in excess of one year at December 31, 1997, are due as
follows:

These employment agreements terminate on the earlier of death, permanent
disability or December 31, 2001.
RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN - The Company has a 401(k) profit sharing plan for
the benefit of all employees and makes contributions as determined annually by
the Board of Directors. Contributions of $415,121, $613,213 and $744,913 were
made in 1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively.
LETTERS OF CREDIT AND COLLATERAL - At December 31, 1997, the Company has
outstanding letters of credit of $1,525,852 in connection with property and
liability insurance coverage and certain lease matters. Certificates of deposit
of $1,525,852 are pledged as collateral on the letters of credit.
LITIGATION SETTLEMENT - In April 1996, the Company entered into a
settlement agreement regarding litigation on the development of a proposed
theatre. The Company recognized a gain of $3,667,646 net of expenses, as a
result of the settlement. The Company currently is a defendant in litigation
alleging certain violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990.
Although the Company cannot predict the outcome of such litigation, management
believes that the Company's potential liability with respect to such
proceedings is not material in the aggregate to the Company's financial
position, results of operations and cash flows.
9. INCOME TAXES

Deferred U.S. income taxes are not provided on certain undistributed
earnings of foreign subsidiaries as management plans to continue reinvesting
these earnings outside the United States. Determination of such tax amounts is
not practical because potential offset by U.S. foreign tax credits would not be
available under various assumptions involving the tax calculation.

SECTION 2
THE CREDITS
2.1 AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS. Each Bank 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.

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 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.
-26-
<PAGE> 27
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/Continuation Date, if
the Loans are to be converted into or continued as Offshore Rate Loans; and (ii)
one Business Day prior to the Conversion/Continuation Date, if the Loans are to
be converted into Base Rate Loans, in each case specifying: (A) the proposed
Conversion/Continuation Date; (B) the aggregate 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 20 different Interest
Periods for Loans in effect without the consent of the Administrative Agent and
the Majority Banks.
-27-
<PAGE> 28
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 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) 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 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 (the "Prepayment Date"). The
Commitment of each Bank shall automatically be reduced by an amount equal to
such Bank's Pro Rata Share of such Excess Net Proceeds on the
-28-
<PAGE> 29
Prepayment Date. Such reduction shall be applied to future automatic reductions
of the Aggregate Commitment in the inverse order of their scheduled occurrence.
All accrued commitment fees on the portion of the Commitment reduced to, but not
including the Prepayment Date, shall be paid on the Prepayment Date.
(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) PREPAYMENTS IN 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. Prepayments of
Offshore Rate Loans shall be accompanied by accrued interest thereon to the date
of prepayment on the amount prepaid and any amounts required pursuant to Section
3.4.
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
-29-
<PAGE> 30
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 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 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
-30-
<PAGE> 31
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) FEES. The Company shall pay to the Arrangers for their own accounts
arrangement fees in the amounts agreed upon between the Company and each
Arranger.
(b) AMENDMENT FEE. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent,
for the account of each Bank which was a party to the Existing Credit Facility,
an amendment fee equal to five basis points of such Bank's commitment under the
Existing Credit Facility which is continued hereunder.
(c) UPFRONT FEE. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for
the account of each Bank, an upfront fee equal to (a) in the case of a Bank
submitting a commitment proposal of at least $35,000,000, 20 basis points on the
amount by which its final allocated Commitment hereunder has increased from the
Existing Credit Facility, and (b) in the case of a Bank submitting a commitment
proposal of less than $35,000,000, 15 basis points on the amount by which its
final allocated Commitment hereunder has increased from the Existing Credit
Facility; provided, however, that in the case of any Bank not a party to the
Existing Credit Facility, the foregoing upfront fee shall be based on entire
proposed commitment submitted by such Bank and payable on the entirety of the
final allocated Commitment of such Bank.
(d) COMMITMENT FEE. 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
due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each quarter
commencing March 31, 1998, 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.
-31-
<PAGE> 32
(e) 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 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 without deduction or setoff and delivered to the
Administrative Agent for credit to:
Bank of America National Trust
and Savings Association

<PAGE> 33
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 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 the date of such
Borrowing, the
-33-
<PAGE> 34
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 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,
-34-
<PAGE> 35
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 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
-35-
<PAGE> 36
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 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) 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
-36-
<PAGE> 37
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
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
-37-
<PAGE> 38
(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 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 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
-38-
<PAGE> 39
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.
SECTION 4

consents and approvals to own its assets, carry on its business and execute,

qualified as a foreign corporation, licensed and in good standing under the laws
of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the
conduct of its business requires such qualification; and (d) is in compliance
with all Requirements of Law; except, in each case referred to in clause (b),
(c) or clause (d), to the extent that the failure to do so could not reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.2 CORPORATE AUTHORIZATION; NO CONTRAVENTION. The execution, delivery
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

-41-
<PAGE> 42
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
Recapitalization, the Recapitalization Agreements, except for (a) such filings,
recordations and registrations as contemplated by the Pledge Agreements in order
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

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

-42-
<PAGE> 43
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.
(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

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.

appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been provided in

Subsidiaries which could reasonably be expected to, if the assessment were made,

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 not (if enforced in accordance with applicable law)
result in liability which could reasonably be expected to have a Material

all licenses, permits, authorizations and registrations required under any
Environmental Law ("Environmental Permits") and necessary for its ordinary

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.

Subject to any contractual limitations applicable to the holders

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

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

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, principle or any

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.

is given to the Company by the Administrative Agent or any Bank; or
(m) LOAN DOCUMENTS. The Loan Agreement, Notes, Guaranty or Pledge
Agreement at any time after its execution and delivery and for any reason other
than the agreement of the Banks or satisfaction in full of all the Obligations,
ceases to be in full force and effect or is declared by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be null and void, invalid or unenforceable in any respect which,
in any such event in the reasonable opinion of the Banks, is materially adverse
to the interests of the Banks; or the Company or any Guarantor denies that it
has any or further liability or obligation under any Loan Document, or purports
to revoke, terminate or rescind same; or any Event of Default (as such term is
or may hereafter be specifically defined in any other Loan Document) occurs
under any other Loan Document; or
-66-

(n) ADVERSE CHANGE. There shall occur a Material Adverse Effect; or
(o) CHANGE OF CONTROL.
(i) Prior to the Recapitalization Date: (A) a Change in 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 own at
least 50% of all Voting Stock of Cinemark Theatres Holdings, and such
default shall continue unremedied for a period of 30 days, (2) to own a
majority of all Capital Stock of Cinemark Theatres Holdings at all
times, or (3) to have designated a majority of the Board of Directors
of Cinemark Theatres Holdings or (C) the failure of Cinemark Theatres
Holdings 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 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 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.
-68-
<PAGE> 69
9.4 RELIANCE BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.
(a) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to 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,
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.
-69-
<PAGE> 70
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 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 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.
<PAGE> 71
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 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 Cinemark Theatres Holdings.
(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 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 SYNDICATION AGENT, CO-AGENTS. The Banks identified on the
facing page or signature pages
-71-
<PAGE> 72
of this Agreement as the "Syndication Agent" and the "Co-Agents" 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 Syndication Agent and the Co-Agents 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 Syndication
Agent or any Co-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 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
action hereunder or under any Loan Document; (e) amend this Section 10.1 or
Section 2.15; or (f) discharge any Guarantor or Pledgor, or release any part of
the Collateral except as permitted by Section 6.12; provided further, that no
amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the
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 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.
-72-
<PAGE> 73
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 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 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
-73-
<PAGE> 74
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 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.
-74-
<PAGE> 75
(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.
(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

perfect the Liens granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable the
Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company and each Pledgor
will execute and deliver to Administrative Agent such financing or continuation
statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments, endorsements or
notices, as may be necessary or desirable,
- 4 -
MITCHELL FAMILY PLEDGE AGREEMENT
<PAGE> 5
or as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and
preserve the Liens granted or purported to be granted hereby.
(b) The Company and each Pledgor hereby authorize the Administrative
Agent to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments
thereto, relative to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of
such Pledgor where permitted by law.

recording fees or refiling, re-registration and re-recording fees, and all
expenses, incident to its execution and acknowledgement of this Agreement, any
agreement supplemental hereto and any instruments of further assurance, and all
federal, state, county and municipal stamp taxes and other taxes, duties,

the Company to, promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly executed
Pledge Agreement Supplement in substantially the form of Schedule 2 hereto (a
"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
on any Pledge Agreement Supplement delivered to the Administrative Agent shall
for all purposes hereunder constitute Collateral. Upon any person pledging
shares hereunder, such person shall be deemed a Pledgor hereunder.
5. COVENANTS OF PLEDGORS AND COMPANY.

attaches thereto, all taxes, assessments and other governmental or
non-governmental charges or levies now or hereafter assessed or levied against
its Pledged Shares or upon the Liens provided for herein as well as pay, or
cause to be 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 examine, receipts showing payment of any of the
foregoing; provided, that no Pledgor shall be required to pay any such tax,
assessment, charge or levy, the validity of which is being contested in good
faith by appropriate proceedings.

prior written notice before it changes the location of its chief executive
office or the office where it keeps the Records and shall at the expense of such

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
Administrative Agent promptly, in reasonable detail, (i) of any material claim

issuance.

Administrative Agent if: (a) its Trust is revoked or terminated; (b) its Trust
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
Agent with signature exemplars of any new trustee(s).

Administrative Agent to hold as, Collateral and shall, if
received by each Pledgor, be received in trust for 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
other instruments as each Pledgor may reasonably request for the purpose

<PAGE> 8
Pledgor shall, if 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, endorse 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 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 falls 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 8-1; 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

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
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. 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 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
- 9 -
MITCHELL FAMILY PLEDGE AGREEMENT
<PAGE> 10
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 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
- 10 -
MITCHELL FAMILY PLEDGE AGREEMENT
<PAGE> 11
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 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 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;
- 11 -
MITCHELL FAMILY PLEDGE AGREEMENT
<PAGE> 12
(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 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
- 12 -
MITCHELL FAMILY PLEDGE AGREEMENT
<PAGE> 13
respective successors, transferees and assigns. Without 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 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
- 13 -
MITCHELL FAMILY PLEDGE AGREEMENT
<PAGE> 14
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 mitigate the Company's or
any Pledgor's obligations under this Agreement; (ii) any right to assert against
the Secured Parties with respect to the Company's or Pledgor's obligations under
this Agreement any defense (legal or equitable), set-off, counterclaim, or claim
which Pledgors may now or at any time hereafter have against the Secured
Parties, Company or any other party liable to the Secured Parties in any way or
manner under any Loan Document; (iii) all defenses, counterclaims and off-sets
of any kind or nature, arising directly or indirectly from the present or future
lack of perfection, sufficiency, validity or enforceability of any Loan
Document; and (iv) all presentments, demands for performance, notices of
nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, and notices
of default in connection with any Loan Document, notice of acceptance of this
Agreement and notice of the existence, creation or incurring of new or
additional Obligations under any Loan Document, and all other notices or
formalities to which Pledgors may be entitled with respect to any Loan Document.
16. NO SUBROGATION. Each Pledgor hereby agrees that unless and until 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 Pledgor'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 any
and all expenses, including expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, and
the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel (including, without limitation,
the allocated cost of in-house counsel) and of any experts, which such Secured
Party may incur in connection with (i) the custody or preservation of, or the
sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of their 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
