RE: Employment Agreement

Dear Mr. Goldsmith:

On behalf of Lions Gate Films Inc. (the “Company”), this is to confirm the terms
of your employment by the Company. We refer to you herein as “Employee.” The
terms of Employee’s employment are as follows:

1.    TERM

(a) The term of this agreement (“Agreement”) will begin October 1, 2015 (the
“Effective Date”) and end September 30, 2019, subject to earlier termination as
provided for in Section 7 below (the “Term”). Until October 1, 2015 the
employment agreement dated October 3, 2012 between the Company and Employee (the
“Prior Agreement”) shall govern the terms and conditions of Employee’s
employment. During the Term of this Agreement, Employee will serve as Co-Chief
Operating Officer, reporting to the Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”),
currently Jon Feltheimer, with additional dotted-line reporting to the Vice
Chairman, currently Michael Burns. In such capacity, among other duties
reasonably assigned by the Company, Employee shall: (i) act as the Company’s
head of corporate development (having non-exclusive oversight of mergers and
acquisitions); (ii) strategically oversee existing and future joint ventures,
channels and digital ventures/initiatives (excluding digital licensing); (iii)
oversee the Company’s Board of Directors’ (“Board”) materials/memoranda relating
to the financial analysis of the Company’s operations and strategic initiatives;
(iv) oversee financial analysis and strategy with respect to business unit
operations and performance; and, (v) exclusively or non-exclusively, as may be
determined on a case-by-case basis, oversee corporate and project finance and
capital structure and related transactions. Employee shall render such services
as are customarily rendered by persons in Employee’s capacity in the
entertainment industry and as may be reasonably requested by the Company.

(b) So long as this Agreement shall continue in effect, Employee shall devote
Employee’s full business time, energy and ability exclusively to the business,
affairs and interests of the Company and matters related thereto, shall use
Employee’s best efforts and abilities to promote the Company’s interests, and
shall perform the services contemplated by this Agreement in accordance with
policies established by the Company. As long as Employee’s meaningful business
time is devoted to the Company, Employee may devote a reasonable amount of time
to management of personal investments and charitable, political and civic
activities, so long as these activities do not conflict with the Company’s
interests or otherwise interfere with Employee’s performance under this
Agreement.

(c) Subject to travel required by Employee’s position and consistent with the
reasonable business of the Company, Employee will be based in the Los Angeles,
California area.

(d) During the Term, the Company shall pay for the services of an assistant to
the extent available in keeping with the Company’s policy and practice.

2.    COMPENSATION

(a) Salary. During the Term of this Agreement, Employee will be entitled to
receive base salary (“Base Salary”), payable in accordance with the Company’s
normal payroll practices in effect. During the Term, Employee’s annual rate of
Base Salary will be $900,000.

(b) Payroll. Nothing in this Agreement shall limit the Company’s right to modify
its payroll practices, as it deems necessary.

(c) Bonuses.

(i)
For each fiscal year during the Term, Employee shall be eligible to receive
annual performance bonuses based upon such Company and/or individual performance
criteria as determined by the Compensation Committee (the “CCLG”) of the Board
of Directors (the “Board”) of Lions Gate Entertainment Corp. (“Lions Gate”), the
Company’s parent, in its discretion and in consultation with the CEO, provided
that, except as expressly provided in Section 7(a)(v) and (vii) below, Employee
must be employed with the Company through the end of the Company’s fiscal year
to be eligible to receive a bonus for a given fiscal year. Any such bonus will
be paid as soon as practicable after the end of the applicable fiscal year and
in all events within the “short-term deferral” period provided under Treasury
Regulation Section 1.409A-1(a)(4) (generally within two and one‑half months
after the end of the fiscal year for which the bonus is paid).

(ii)
EBITDA Bonus. For each fiscal year during the Term, Employee shall be entitled
to receive an additional annual bonus based on the Company’s attainment of an
EBITDA target (the “E Target”) if such E Target is attained in the following
amounts:

(A)
If the Company attains at least 105% of the E Target, Employee shall receive a
bonus equal to 12.5% of his Base Salary;

(B)
If the Company attains at least 115% of the E Target, Employee shall receive an
additional bonus equal to 12.5% of his Base Salary.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mr. Brian Goldsmith

For each such fiscal year, the Company shall designate the upcoming year’s E
Target after it is approved by the Board, on or before the first day of the
applicable fiscal year, or as soon thereafter as approved by the Board, and it
shall notify Employee in writing of such E Target for the fiscal year to which
the E Target applies. The E Target shall not be greater than the E Target for
other similarly situated executives of the Company receiving a similar bonus
based on an EBITDA target. The Company shall establish a reserve amount for
uncollectible receivables equal to 2% (the “E Reserve”). The E Target shall
include the E Reserve. If Employee’s employment terminates for any reason during
a fiscal year (excepting only if Employee is terminated by the Company for
“cause” pursuant to Section 7(a)(iv) below), Employee shall be entitled to a
pro-rata portion of the EBITDA bonus for that year, if and when earned, except
as otherwise set forth in Section 7(a)(viii) below. Any bonus payable to
Employee hereunder shall be paid within thirty (30) days following the end of
the audit for the applicable fiscal year and in all events within the
“short-term deferral” period provided under Treasury Regulation Section
1.409A-1(a)(4).

(iii)
Credit Facility Bonus. In the event that, during the Term, the Company either
refinances its existing corporate credit facility or closes a corporate credit
facility for a commitment amount of not less than $600 million, Employee shall
be entitled to receive an additional one-time bonus in the amount of ONE HUNDRED
THOUSAND DOLLARS ($100,000.00) (the “Credit Facility Bonus”), subject to
Employee’s continued employment with the Company through the date of such
refinancing or closing. The Credit Facility Bonus will be paid as soon as
practicable after the date of such event and in all events within the
“short-term deferral” period provided under Treasury Regulation Section
1.409A-1(a)(4).

(d)    Tax Withholding. Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary,
the Company may withhold (or cause there to be withheld, as the case may be)
from any amounts otherwise due or payable under or pursuant to this Agreement
such federal, state and local income, employment, or other taxes as may be
required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

3.    BENEFITS

As an employee of the Company, Employee will continue to be eligible to
participate in all benefit plans to the same extent as other similarly situated
salaried employees of the Company and in all events subject to the terms of such
plans. For the sake of clarity, such plans do not include compensation and/or
any bonus plans.

customary “perqs” of division heads within the Company; (iii) a cell phone,
which may be expensed; and (iv) a reserved parking space.

5.    EQUITY GRANTS

Employee of 56,250 restricted stock units (the “Time-Based RSU Grant”) and an
option to purchase 101,250 common shares of Lions Gate at a per-share exercise
price equal to the closing price of a Lions Gate common share on the date of
grant of the option (the “Time-Based Option,” and together with the Time-Based
RSU Grant, the “Time-Based Grants”). Each Time-Based Grant shall be evidenced by
and subject to the terms of an award agreement in the form generally then used
by Lions Gate to evidence grants of that type under Lions Gate’s 2012
Performance Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).
(i)
Vesting. Subject to Section 5(a)(ii) below, the Time-Based Grants shall each
vest as to one-third (1/3) of the award on each of September 30, 2016 and
September 30, 2017, and as to one-sixth (1/6) of the award on each of September
30, 2018 and September 30, 2019.

(ii)
Continuance of Employment. The vesting schedule in Section 5(a)(i) above
requires Employee’s continued employment with the Company through the applicable
vesting date as a condition to the vesting of each installment of the applicable
Time-Based Grant and the rights and benefits thereto, except as otherwise set
forth herein.

(b)    Performance-Based Grants. On November 13, 2015, the CCLG approved the
grant to Employee of 93,750 performance-based restricted stock units (the
“Performance-Based RSU Grant”) and a performance-based option to purchase
168,750 common shares of Lions Gate at a per-share exercise price equal to the
closing price of a Lions Gate common share on the date of grant of the option
(the “Performance-Based Option,” and together with the Performance-Based RSU
Grant, the “Performance-Based Grants”). Each Performance-Based Grant shall be
evidenced by and subject to the terms of an award agreement in the form
generally then used by Lions Gate to evidence grants of that type under the
Plan.

(i)
Vesting. Subject to Section 5(b)(ii) below, each Performance-Based Grant shall
be eligible to vest as follows (each vesting date a “Performance Vesting Date”):

(A)
one-fifth (1/5) of each Performance-Based Grant will vest on September 30, 2016;

(B)
one-fifth (1/5) of each Performance-Based Grant will vest on September 30, 2017;

(C)
three-tenths (3/10) of each Performance-Based Grant will vest on September 30,
2018; and

(D)
three-tenths (3/10) of each Performance-Based Grant will vest on September 30,
2019.

The vesting of each Performance-Based Grant on the applicable Performance
Vesting Date shall be subject to an assessment of Employee’s personal
performance over the twelve (12) month period ending on such Performance Vesting
Date (or, if so determined by the CCLG, performance over a fiscal year of Lions
Gate that overlaps with such twelve (12)-month period), based on such Company
and/or individual performance criteria determined by the CCLG, in consultation
with the CEO, which shall include the criteria listed in Exhibit A to this
Agreement. Such performance assessment and the determination as to the portion
(if any) of each Performance-Based Grant that will vest on such Performance
Vesting Date shall be made by the CCLG in its discretion, in consultation with
the CEO. Any portion of the Performance-Based RSU Grant or the Performance-Based
Option that does not vest on the applicable Performance Vesting Date shall
expire on that date with no possibility of further vesting; provided, however,
that the CCLG may, in its sole discretion, provide that any installment of a
Performance-Based Grant eligible to vest on a particular Performance Vesting
Date that does not vest on such date may vest on any future Performance Vesting
Date (but in no event shall either award vest as to more than 100% of the shares
subject to such award).
(ii)
Continuance of Employment. The vesting schedule in Section 5(b)(i) above
requires Employee’s continued employment with the Company through the applicable
vesting date as a condition to the vesting of each installment of the applicable
Performance-Based Grant and the rights and benefits thereto, except as otherwise
set forth herein.

(c)    Acceleration of Equity Awards. The following provisions shall apply to
the equity awards contemplated by this Section 5:
(i)
In the event that either (A) Employee’s employment terminates due to his death,
or (B) a Change of Control (as defined herein) occurs during the Term of this

by Employee for “Good Reason” (as such terms are defined in Section 7 below),
the Time-Based Grants and Performance-Based Grants provided in Sections 5(a) and
(b) above, to the extent then outstanding and unvested, shall immediately
accelerate and become fully vested.
(ii)
In the event that during the Term, either (A) Employee’s employment is
terminated at any time by the Company “without cause” as contemplated by Section
7(a)(v) below, or (B) the employment of both Jon Feltheimer and Michael Burns
with the Company terminates (the second such termination to occur, a “Change in
Management”) and on or within twelve (12) months following such Change in
Management, Employee’s employment is terminated by Employee for “Good Reason”
(as such term is defined in Section 7(a)(vi) below), then each installment of
the Time-Based Grants and Performance-Based Grants provided in Sections 5(a) and
(b) above that is then outstanding and unvested and is scheduled to vest within
the period of twelve (12) months following such termination of employment shall
vest in full on the termination date, and fifty percent (50%) of each
installment of the Time-Based Grants and Performance-Based Grants provided in
Sections 5(a) and (b) above that is then outstanding and unvested and is
scheduled to vest within the period commencing twelve (12) months following such
termination of employment and ending twenty-four (24) months following such
termination of employment shall vest on the termination date.

Any portion of the Time-Based Grants and Performance-Based Grants that is
unvested after giving effect to the accelerated vesting provisions in paragraph
(ii) above shall terminate on the date of Employee’s termination of employment.

(iv)
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein or in any equity award or
other agreement, the provisions for accelerated vesting of equity awards in this
Section 5(c) shall apply to, in addition to the Time-Based Grants and
Performance-Based Grants, any other equity-based awards granted by the Company
to Employee that are (A) outstanding as of the date of this Agreement or (B)
granted during the Term at any time after the date of this Agreement (unless
otherwise expressly provided by the CCLG at the time it approves the applicable
grant).

(d)    Definition of Change in Control. For the purposes of this Agreement,
“Change of Control” shall mean:

Mr. Brian Goldsmith
November 13, 2015
Page 8 of 17

acknowledges and agrees that it is Employee’s obligation to read, understand and
adhere to the rules and policies set forth in such handbook. Employee
acknowledges and agrees that the Company retains the right to revise, modify or
delete any such policy or any employee benefit plan it deems appropriate.

7.    TERMINATION

(a) This Agreement and the Term shall terminate upon the happening of any one or
more of the following events:

(i)
The mutual written agreement between the Company and Employee;

(ii)
The death of Employee;

(iii)
Employee’s having become so physically or mentally disabled as to be incapable,
even with a reasonable accommodation, of satisfactorily performing Employee’s
duties hereunder for a period of ninety (90) days or more, provided that
Employee has not cured disability within ten (10) days of written notice;

(iv)
The determination on the part of the Company that “cause” exists for termination
of this Agreement. As used herein, “cause” is defined as the occurrence of any
of the following:

(A)
Employee’s conviction of a felony or plea of nolo contendere to a felony (other
than a traffic violation);

(B)
commission, by act or omission, of any material act of dishonesty in the
performance of Employee’s duties hereunder;

(C)
material breach of this Agreement by Employee; or

(D)
any act of misconduct by Employee having a substantial adverse effect on the
business or reputation of the Company;

Prior to terminating Employee's employment for “cause,” the Company shall
provide Employee with written notice of the grounds for the proposed
termination. If the grounds for termination are capable of cure, the Employee
shall have fifteen (15) days after receiving such notice in which to cure such
grounds to the extent such cure is possible. If not cure is possible or Employee
has failed to cure, Employee's employment shall terminate upon the 15th day
following notice of termination.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mr. Brian Goldsmith
November 13, 2015
Page 9 of 17

(v)
Employee is terminated “without cause.” Termination “without cause” shall be
defined as Employee being terminated by the Company for any reason other than as
set forth in Sections 7(a)(i)-(iv) above. In the event of a termination “without
cause,” subject to Employee’s execution and delivery to the Company of a general
release of claims in a form acceptable to the Company not more than twenty-one
(21) days after the date the Company provides such release (and Employee’s not
revoking such release within any revocation period provided under applicable
law), Employee shall be entitled to receive a severance payment equal to 50% of
the amount of the Base Salary that Employee would have been entitled to receive
for the period commencing on the date of such termination and ending on the last
day of the Term had Employee continued to be employed with the Company through
such date (but no less than the greater of either (x) twelve (12) months’ Base
Salary at the rate in effect on Employee’s termination or (y) the amount
Employee would receive from the Company’s severance policy for non-contract
employees that is in effect at the time of termination). Subject to the release
provision set forth above, such amount shall be paid in cash in a lump sum as
soon as practicable after (and in all events within sixty (60) days after the
date of Employee’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Treasury
Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)) with the Company; provided, however, that if the
60-day period following Employee’s separation from service spans two calendar
years, such lump sum payment shall be made within such 60-day period but in the
second of the two calendar years. The Company shall provide the final form of
release agreement to Employee not later than seven (7) days following the
termination date. The Company’s provision of the payments and benefits referred
to in this Section 7(a)(v) and Section 5 and Section 7(a)(vii), in addition to
the accrued obligations described in Section 7(b) below, shall relieve the
Company of any and all obligations to Employee.

(vi)
The foregoing notwithstanding, if Employee’s employment with the Company
terminates on or within twelve (12) months following a Change of Control or a
Change in Management (as defined in Section 5(c)) pursuant to a termination by
the Company “without cause” or by Employee for “Good Reason” (as defined below),
then Employee shall be entitled to receive (in addition to any rights to
accelerated vesting of equity awards under Section 5 hereof and in lieu of the
severance provided in Section 7(a)(v) above) a severance payment equal to 100%
of the amount of the Base Salary that Employee would have been entitled to
receive for the period commencing on the date of such termination and ending on
the last day of the Term had Employee continued to be employed with the Company
through such date (but no less than the greater of either (x) twelve (12)
months’ Base Salary at the rate in effect on Employee’s termination or (y) the
amount Employee

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mr. Brian Goldsmith
November 13, 2015
Page 10 of 17

would receive from the Company’s severance policy for non-contract employees
that is in effect at the time of termination); provided, however, that
Employee’s right to receive such payments shall be subject to satisfaction of
the requirement to provide a general release of claims in accordance with
Section 7(a)(v). Subject to such release requirement, the amount referred to in
the foregoing clause shall be paid in cash in a lump sum as soon as practicable
after (and in all events within sixty (60) days after the date of Employee’s
“separation from service” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section
1.409A-1(h)) with the Company; provided, however, that if the 60-day period
following Employee’s separation from service spans two calendar years, such lump
sum payment shall be made within such 60-day period but in the second of the two
calendar years. The Company’s provision of the payments and benefits referred to
in this Section 7(a)(vi) and in Section 5 and Section 7(a)(vii), in addition to
the accrued obligations described in Section 7(b) below, shall relieve the
Company of any and all obligations to Employee.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean any material diminution
by the Company in Employee’s responsibilities as measured against Employee’s
responsibilities prior to the Change of Control or Change in Management, as
applicable, or any change in the positions to which Employee reports which
results in Employee reporting to individuals with a materially lower level of
authority than the individuals to whom Employee currently reports; provided,
however, that any such condition shall not constitute “Good Reason” unless both
(x) Employee provides written notice to the Company of the condition claimed to
constitute Good Reason within ninety (90) days of the initial existence of such
condition, and (y) the Company fails to remedy such condition within thirty (30)
days of receiving such written notice thereof; and provided, further, that in
all events the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company shall not
be treated as a termination for “Good Reason” unless such termination occurs not
more than one (1) year following the initial existence of the condition claimed
to constitute “Good Reason.” For these purposes, if the Company is purchased by
another entity, it shall not be considered a material diminution in
responsibility if Employee is made Co-Chief Operating Officer (or similar role)
at that other entity.

(vii)
In addition, if Employee becomes entitled to receive the severance benefits
provided in either Section 7(a)(v) or 7(a)(vi) above and subject to the release
requirement set forth therein, or if Employee’s employment terminates pursuant
to either Section 7(a)(ii) or 7(a)(iii) above, Employee shall also be entitled
to (A) payment by the Company of any bonus payable pursuant to Section 2(c)(i)
on a prorated basis for the fiscal year in which such termination of employment
occurs based on the amount of

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mr. Brian Goldsmith
November 13, 2015
Page 11 of 17

such fiscal year worked by Employee (any such bonus to be paid at the time
provided in Section 2 above and no such bonus to be payable for any fiscal year
subsequent to the year of termination of employment); and (B) if Employee timely
elects continued health coverage pursuant to COBRA, payment by the Company of
his COBRA premiums for six (6) months following his date of termination (or, if
earlier, the date he becomes eligible for coverage under the health plan of a
future employer or the Company is otherwise no longer required to offer COBRA
coverage to Employee).

(viii)
In addition, if Employee becomes entitled to receive the severance benefits
provided in either Section 7(a)(v) or 7(a)(vi) above and subject to the release
requirement set forth therein, or if Employee’s employment terminates pursuant
to either Section 7(a)(ii) or 7(a)(iii) above, Employee shall be eligible for a
bonus amount for the fiscal year in which such termination occurs based upon the
criteria in Section 2(c)(ii) above, prorated to reflect the actual length of
Employee’s employment with the Company during such fiscal year and to be paid on
the date that such bonus, if any, is otherwise payable as provided in such
section; provided however that in the event such termination of employment
occurs on or within six (6) months following a Change in Management, instead of
this prorated bonus amount Employee shall be paid, if the Company achieves at
least 105% of the E Target for the fiscal year in which such termination occurs,
the full amount of the bonus Employee would have been entitled to receive under
Section 2(c)(ii) above had Employee’s employment with the Company not
terminated, such bonus to be paid at the same time such bonus would otherwise
have been paid under such section.

(b) In the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Sections
7(a)(i)-(iv) above, neither the Company nor Employee shall have any remaining
duties or obligations hereunder, except that the Company shall pay to Employee,
any base salary that had accrued but had not been paid (including accrued and
unpaid vacation time) as of the date of termination (and, in the case of a
termination pursuant to Section 7(a)(ii), shall provide the benefits provided in
Section 5(c)(i), and in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 7(a)(ii)
or 7(a)(iii), shall provide the benefits provided in Section 7(a)(vii) and
7(a)(viii)). Following the termination of the Term and/or this Agreement for any
reason, Sections 9 through 15 shall, notwithstanding anything else herein to the
contrary, survive and continue to be binding upon the parties following such
termination.

8.    EXCLUSIVITY AND SERVICE

Employee’s services shall be exclusive to the Company during the Term. Employee
shall render such services as are customarily rendered by persons in Employee’s
capacity in the entertainment industry and as may be reasonably requested by the
Company. Employee hereby

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mr. Brian Goldsmith
November 13, 2015
Page 12 of 17

agrees to comply with all reasonable requirements, directions and requests, and
with all reasonable rules and regulations made by the Company in connection with
the regular conduct of its business. Employee further agrees to render services
during Employee’s employment hereunder whenever, wherever and as often as the
Company may reasonably require in a competent, conscientious and professional
manner, and as instructed by the Company in all matters, including those
involving artistic taste and judgment, but there shall be no obligation on the
Company to cause or allow Employee to render any services, or to include all or
any of Employee’s work or services in any motion picture or other property or
production.

9.    INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

(a) Employee agrees that the Company shall be the sole and exclusive owner
throughout the universe in perpetuity of all of the results and proceeds of
Employee’s services, work and labor in connection with Employee’s employment by
the Company, during the Term and any other period of employment with the
Company, free and clear of any claims, liens or encumbrances. Employee shall
promptly and fully disclose to the Company, with all necessary detail for a
complete understanding of the same, any and all developments, clients and
potential client lists, discoveries, inventions, improvements, conceptions,
ideas, writings, processes, formulae, contracts, methods, works, whether or not
patentable or copyrightable, which are conceived, made, acquired, or written by
Employee, solely or jointly with another, while employed by the Company (whether
or not at the request or upon the suggestion of the Company) and which are
substantially related to the business or activities of the Company its parent,
affiliates, or subsidiaries that are within the scope of Employee’s employment
and responsibilities hereunder (collectively, “Proprietary Rights”).

(b) All copyrightable works that Employee creates in connection with Employee’s
obligations under this Agreement and any other period of employment with the
Company, its parent, affiliates, or subsidiaries shall be considered “work made
for hire” and therefore the property of the Company. To the extent any work so
produced or other intellectual property so generated by Employee is not deemed
to be a “work made for hire,” Employee hereby assigns and transfers and agrees
to assign and transfer to the Company (or as otherwise directed by the Company)
Employee's full rights, title and interests in the Proprietary Rights to the
Company or its designee. In addition, Employee shall deliver to the Company any
and all drawings, notes, specifications and data relating to the Proprietary
Rights. Whenever requested to do so by the Company, Employee shall execute and
deliver to the Company any and all applications, assignments and other
instruments and do such other acts that the Company shall reasonably request to
apply for and obtain patents and/or copyrights in any and all countries or to
otherwise protect the Company’s interest in the Proprietary Rights and/or to
vest title thereto to the Company. Employee further agrees not to charge the
Company for time spent in complying with these obligations. This Section 9 shall
apply only to that intellectual property which related at the time of conception
to the Company's then current or anticipated business or resulted from work
performed by Employee for the Company. Employee hereby acknowledges receipt of
written notice from the Company pursuant to California Labor Code Section 2872
that this Agreement (to the extent it requires an assignment or offer to assign
rights to any

invention of Employee) does not apply to an invention which qualifies fully
under California Labor Code Section 2870.

10.    ASSIGNMENT AND DELEGATION

Employee shall not assign any of Employee’s rights or delegate any of Employee’s
duties granted under this Agreement. Any such assignment or delegation shall be
deemed void ab initio.

11.    TRADE SECRETS

The parties acknowledge and agree that during the Term of this Agreement and in
the course of the discharge of Employee’s duties hereunder and at any other
period of employment with the Company, its parent, affiliates, or subsidiaries,
Employee shall have and has had access to information concerning the operation
of the Company and its parent, affiliated and subsidiary entities, including
without limitation, financial, personnel, sales, planning and other information
that is owned by the Company and regularly used in the operation of the
Company’s business and (to the extent that such confidential information is not
subsequently disclosed or otherwise becomes known to the public generally other
than by breach of this Agreement by Employee) that this information constitutes
the Company’s trade secrets. Employee agrees that Employee shall not disclose
any such trade secrets, directly or indirectly, to any other person or use them
in any way, either during the Term of this Agreement or at any other time
thereafter, except as is required in the course of Employee’s employment for the
Company, as required by applicable law or court order, or if authorized in
writing by the Company. Employee shall not use any such trade secrets in
connection with any other employment and/or business opportunities following the
Term. In addition, Employee hereby expressly agrees that Employee will not
disclose any confidential matters of the Company and its parent, affiliated and
subsidiary entities that are not trade secrets prior to, during or after
Employee’s employment including the specifics of this Agreement. Employee shall
not use any such confidential information in connection with any other
employment and/or business opportunities at any time during or following the
Term. In addition, in order to protect any such confidential information,
Employee agrees that during the Term and for a period of eighteen (18) months
thereafter, Employee will not, directly or indirectly, induce or entice any
other executive or employee of the Company, with the exception of Employee’s
exclusive assistant if the Company has employed an individual in such role, to
leave such employment.

12.    ARBITRATION

Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or in respect to this Agreement
(or its validity, interpretation or enforcement), the employment relationship or
the subject matter hereof shall at the request of either party be submitted to
and settled by binding arbitration conducted before a single arbitrator in Los
Angeles in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, to the extent that such
rules do not conflict with any provisions of this Agreement. Said arbitration
shall be under the jurisdiction of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services,
Inc. (“JAMS”) in Los Angeles, California. All such actions must be brought
within the statute of

limitations period applicable to the claim as if that claim were being filed
with the judiciary or forever be waived. Failure to institute an arbitration
proceeding within such period shall constitute an absolute bar to the
institution of any proceedings respecting such controversy or claim, and a
waiver thereof. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award damages and
remedies in accordance with applicable law. Any award, order, or judgment
pursuant to such arbitration shall be deemed final and binding and may be
entered and enforced in any state or federal court of competent jurisdiction.
Each party agrees to submit to the jurisdiction of any such court for purposes
of the enforcement of any such award, order, or judgment. The Company shall pay
for the administrative costs of such hearing and proceeding.

13.    INDEMNIFICATION

Except with respect to claims resulting from Employee’s willful misconduct or
acts outside the scope of his employment hereunder, Employee shall continue to
be defended, indemnified and held harmless by Company in respect of all claims
arising from or in connection with his position or services as an Employee of
the Company to the maximum extent permitted in accordance with Lions Gate’s
Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, Board Resolutions and under applicable
California and British Columbia law (including, without limitation and as
applicable, attorney’s fees), and shall be covered by the Company’s applicable
directors and officers insurance policy.

14. LIMIT ON BENEFITS
(a)    Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, to
the extent that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement and
benefits provided to, or for the benefit of, Employee under any other Company
plan or agreement (such payments or benefits are collectively referred to as the
“Benefits” for purposes of this Section 20) would be subject to the excise tax
(the “Excise Tax”) imposed under Section 4999 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the Benefits shall be reduced (but not below
zero) if and to the extent that a reduction in the Benefits would result in
Employee retaining a larger amount, on an after-tax basis (taking into account
federal, state and local income taxes and the Excise Tax), than if Employee
received all of the Benefits (such reduced amount is referred to hereinafter as
the “Limited Benefit Amount”). In such case, unless Employee has given prior
written notice to the Company specifying a different order to effectuate the
reduction of the Benefits (any such notice consistent with the requirements of
Section 409A of the Code to avoid the imputation of any tax, penalty or interest
thereunder), the Benefits shall be reduced or eliminated by first reducing or
eliminating cash severance payments, then by reducing or eliminating other cash
payments, then by reducing or eliminating those payments or benefits which are
not payable in cash, in each case in reverse order beginning with payments or
benefits which are to be paid the farthest in time from the Determination (as
hereinafter defined). Any notice given by Employee pursuant to the preceding
sentence shall take precedence over the provisions of any other plan,
arrangement or agreement governing Employee’s rights and entitlements to any
benefits or compensation.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(b)    A determination as to whether the Benefits shall be reduced to the
Limited Benefit Amount pursuant to this Agreement and the amount of such Limited
Benefit Amount shall be made by Company’s independent public accountants or
another certified public accounting firm of national reputation designated by
Lions Gate (the “Accounting Firm”). Company and Employee shall use their
reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to provide its determination
(the “Determination”), together with detailed supporting calculations and
documentation to Company and Employee within five (5) days of the date of
termination of Employee’s employment, if applicable, or such other time as
requested by Company or Employee (provided Employee reasonably believes that any
of the Benefits may be subject to the Excise Tax), and if the Accounting Firm
determines that no Excise Tax is payable by Employee with respect to any
Benefits, Company and Employee shall use their reasonable efforts to cause the
Accounting Firm to furnish Employee with an opinion reasonably acceptable to
Employee that no Excise Tax will be imposed with respect to any such Benefits.
Unless Employee provides written notice to Company within ten (10) days of the
delivery of the Determination to Employee that he disputes such Determination,
the Determination shall be binding, final and conclusive upon Company and
Employee.

15.    INTEGRATION, AMENDMENT, NOTICE, SEVERABILITY, AND FORUM

(a) This Agreement expresses the binding and entire agreement between Employee
and the Company and, from and after the Effective Date, shall replace and
supersede all prior arrangements and representations, either oral or written, as
to the subject matter hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Section 5 of the
Prior Agreement, the terms of any equity grants that have been made under any
other employment agreements between Company and Employee, and the terms of any
equity grants that have been provided by Company to Employee outside the terms
of any employment agreement, in each case to the extent the applicable equity
award is outstanding on the date hereof, shall remain in full force and effect
(subject in each case to Section 5(c)(iv) above).

(b) All modifications or amendments to this Agreement must be made in writing
and signed by both parties.

(c) Any notice required herein shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have
been duly given when delivered by hand, received via electronic mail or on the
depositing of said notice in any U.S. Postal Service mail receptacle with
postage prepaid, addressed to the Company at 2700 Colorado Avenue, Suite 200,
Santa Monica, California 90404 and to Employee at the address set forth above,
or to such address as either party may have furnished to the other in writing in
accordance herewith.

(d) If any portion of this Agreement is held unenforceable under any applicable
statute or rule of law then such portion only shall be deemed omitted and shall
not affect the validity of enforceability of any other provision of this
Agreement.

(e) This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California. The
state and federal courts (or arbitrators appointed as described herein) located
in Los Angeles,

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mr. Brian Goldsmith

California shall, subject to the arbitration agreement set forth in Section 12
above, be the sole forum for any action for relief arising out of or pursuant to
the enforcement or interpretation of this Agreement. Each party to this
Agreement consents to the personal jurisdiction and arbitration in such forum
and courts and each party hereto covenants not to, and waives any right to, seek
a transfer of venue from such jurisdiction on any grounds.    

16.    SECTION 409A

(a) It is intended that any amounts payable under this Agreement shall either be
exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code
(including the Treasury regulations and other published guidance relating
thereto) (“Code Section 409A”) so as not to subject Employee to payment of any
additional tax, penalty or interest imposed under Code Section 409A. The
provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted to avoid the
imputation of any such additional tax, penalty or interest under Code Section
409A yet preserve (to the nearest extent reasonably possible) the intended
benefit payable to Employee.

(b)    Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if
Employee is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-1(i) as of the date of Employee’s separation from service (as
defined above), Employee shall not be entitled to any payment or benefits
pursuant to Section 7(a)(v) until the earlier of (i) the date which is six (6)
months after Employee’s separation from service for any reason other than death,
or (ii) the date of Employee’s death. Any amounts otherwise payable to Employee
upon or in the six (6) month period following Employee’s separation from service
that are not so paid by reason of this paragraph shall be paid (without
interest) as soon as practicable (and in all events within thirty (30) days)
after the date that is six (6) months after Employee’s separation from service
(or, if earlier, as soon as practicable, and in all events within thirty (30)
days, after the date of Employee’s death). The provisions of this paragraph
shall only apply if, and to the extent, required to avoid the imputation of any
tax, penalty or interest pursuant to Code Section 409A.

(c)    To the extent that any reimbursements pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement are taxable to Employee, any such reimbursement payment shall be paid
to Employee on or before the last day of Employee’s taxable year following the
taxable year in which the related expense was incurred. The benefits and
reimbursements pursuant to such provisions are not subject to liquidation or
exchange for another benefit and the amount of such benefits and reimbursements
that Employee receives in one taxable year shall not affect the amount of such
benefits or reimbursements that Employee receives in any other taxable year.

(d)    Each payment made pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be
considered a separate payment and not one of a series of payments for purposes
of Code Section 409A.
