(i)    Subject to the terms and conditions as provided in an Award Document and other provisions of the
IMAX LTIP, including Section 6(d)(ii), the following provisions shall apply in the event of a Change in Control: 

(1)    To the extent the successor company (or a subsidiary or parent thereof) assumes the Award, with
appropriate adjustments pursuant to Section 13 to preserve the value of the Award, or provides a substitute for the Award on substantially the same terms and conditions, the existing vesting schedule will continue to apply. 

(2)    To the extent (x) the successor company (or a subsidiary or parent thereof) does not assume or
provide a substitute for an Award on substantially the same terms and conditions or (y) the successor company (or a subsidiary or parent thereof) assumes the Award as provided in Section 6(d)(i)(1) above and the Participant’s
employment or service relationship is terminated without Cause or with Good Reason within twenty-four (24) months following the Change in Control:

applicable laws, rules and regulations, the Board or the Committee shall, at any time prior to, coincident with or after the effective time of a Change in Control, take such actions as it may consider appropriate, including, without limitation:
(A) provide for the acceleration of any vesting or exercisability of an Award, (B) provide for the adjustment of any performance conditions as the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to reflect the Change in Control or for the deemed
attainment of performance conditions relating to an Award, (C) provide for the lapse of restrictions relating to an Award, (D) provide for the assumption, substitution, replacement or continuation of any Award by a successor or surviving
corporation (or a parent or subsidiary thereof) with cash, securities, rights or other property to be paid or issued, as the case may be, by the successor or surviving corporation (or a parent or subsidiary thereof), (E) provide that an Award shall
terminate or expire unless exercised or settled in full on or before a date fixed by the Committee, or (F) terminate or cancel any outstanding Award in exchange for a cash payment (including, if as of the date of the Change in Control, the
Committee determines that no amount would have been realized upon the exercise of the Award, then the Award may be cancelled by the Company without payment of consideration). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything herein to the contrary, neither
the Board nor the Committee shall take any of the actions described in clauses (A), (B), (C) or (F) of the preceding sentence in respect of an Award solely due to the occurrence of a Change in Control, except to the extent that the successor
company in the Change in Control (or a subsidiary or parent thereof) does not assume or provide a substitute for the Award on substantially the same terms and conditions. 

(iii)    Notwithstanding any other provision of the IMAX LTIP or any Award Document, the provisions of
this Section 6(d) may not be terminated, amended, or modified following a Change in Control in a manner that would adversely affect a Participant’s rights with respect to an outstanding Award without the prior written consent of the
Participant. 
 (iv)    Notwithstanding any other provision of the IMAX LTIP or any Award Document, the
payment or settlement of any Award that is considered to provide for a deferral of compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code shall not accelerate upon a Change in Control unless such event also constitutes a “change in
ownership,” “change in effective control,” or “change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets” as defined under Section 409A of the Code.

principles (subject to adjustments and modifications approved by the Committee in advance) consistently applied on a business unit, divisional, Subsidiary or consolidated basis or any combination thereof. 

  
 12 













 (iii)    The Performance Targets may be described in
terms of objectives that are related to the individual Participant or objectives that are Company-wide or related to a Subsidiary, business unit, or region and may be measured on an absolute or cumulative basis or on the basis of percentage of
improvement over time, and may be measured in terms of Company performance (or performance of the applicable Subsidiary, business unit, or region) or measured relative to selected peer companies or a market index. 

(iv)    The Participants will be designated, and the applicable Performance Targets will be established,
by the Committee within ninety (90) days following the commencement of the applicable Performance Period. Each Participant will be assigned a Target Amount payable if Performance Targets are achieved. Any payment of an Award granted with
Performance Targets shall be conditioned on the written certification of the Committee in each case that the Performance Targets and any other material conditions were satisfied. The Committee may determine, at the time of grant, that if performance
exceeds the specified Performance Targets, the Award may be settled with payment greater than the Target Amount, but in no event may such payment exceed the limits set forth in Section 5(c). The Committee retains the right to reduce any Award
notwithstanding the attainment of the Performance Targets. 
 (v)    The Committee may also grant Awards
not intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation”. With respect to such Awards, the Committee may establish Performance Targets based on any criteria as it deems appropriate. 

(h)    Repricing of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights: Except in connection with a corporate transaction
involving the Company (including, without limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split up, spin off, combination, or exchange of Common Shares), the terms of
outstanding Awards may not be amended, without shareholder approval, to reduce the exercise price of outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights, or to cancel outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights in exchange for (i) cash or
other property, (ii) Options or Stock Appreciation Rights with an exercise price that is less than the exercise price of the original Options or Stock Appreciation Rights or (iii) other Awards. 

(i)    Recoupment: Notwithstanding anything in the IMAX LTIP to the contrary, all Awards granted under the IMAX
LTIP, any payments made under the IMAX LTIP and any gains realized upon exercise or settlement of an Award shall be subject to clawback or recoupment as permitted or mandated by applicable law, rules, regulations or any Company policy as enacted,
adopted or modified from time to time. 
 (j)    Minimum Grant or Exercise Price: In no event shall the exercise
price per Common Share of an Option or the grant price per Common Share of a Stock Appreciation Right be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a Common Share on the date of grant; provided, however, that the
exercise price of a Substitute Award granted as an Option shall be determined in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and may be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value on the date of grant. 

  
 13 













 (k)    Term of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights: An Option
or Stock Appreciation Right shall be effective for such term as shall be determined by the Committee and as set forth in the Award Document relating to such Award. The Committee may extend the term of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right after the
time of grant; provided, however, that the term of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right may in no event extend beyond the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date of grant of such
Award. 
 (l)    Minimum Vesting Period: Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary and subject to Sections
6(c) and (d) hereof, no Awards granted after the Effective Date may vest in full prior to the first anniversary of the date of grant, except in the case of a Substitute Award made in replacement of an Award that is already fully vested or
scheduled to vest in full in less than one year from the date of grant of such Substitute Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for Awards other than Awards that are (i) not Full-value Awards and were granted prior to the Effective Date or
(ii) accelerated based on satisfaction of the Service Factor, Awards covering an aggregate of no more than 5% of the total number of Common Shares authorized for issuance under the Plan pursuant to Section 5(a) may be granted pursuant to
Awards that provide for vesting in full less than one year following the date of grant. 
  

	7.	 Terms and Conditions of Options 



(a)    General: The Committee, in its discretion, may grant Options to Eligible Individuals and shall determine
whether such Options shall be Incentive Stock Options or Nonqualified Stock Options. Each Option shall be evidenced by an Award Document that shall expressly identify the Option as an Incentive Stock Option or Nonqualified Stock Option, and be in
such form and contain such provisions as the Committee shall from time to time deem appropriate. 
 (b)    Payment of
Exercise Price: Subject to the provisions of the applicable Award Document and Company policy in effect from time to time, the exercise price of an Option may be paid (i) in cash or cash equivalents, (ii) by actual delivery or
attestation to ownership of freely transferable Common Shares already owned by the person exercising the Option, (iii) by a combination of cash and Common Shares equal in value to the exercise price, (iv) through net share settlement or
similar procedure involving the withholding of Common Shares subject to the Option with a value equal to the exercise price or (v) by such other means as the Committee may authorize. In accordance with the rules and procedures authorized by the
Committee for this purpose, the Option may also be exercised through a “cashless exercise” procedure authorized by the Committee from time to time that permits Participants to exercise Options by delivering irrevocable instructions to a
broker to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds necessary to pay the exercise price and the amount of any required tax or other withholding obligations or such other procedures determined by the Company from time to
time. 

  
 14 













 (c)    Incentive Stock Options: The exercise price per Common
Share of an Incentive Stock Option shall be fixed by the Committee at the time of grant or shall be determined by a method specified by the Committee at the time of grant, but in no event shall the exercise price of an Incentive Stock Option be less
than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a Common Share on the date of grant. No Incentive Stock Option may be issued pursuant to the IMAX LTIP to any individual who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock
possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, unless (i) the exercise price determined as of the date of grant is at least one hundred ten percent
(110%) of the Fair Market Value on the date of grant of the Common Shares subject to such Incentive Stock Option and (ii) the Incentive Stock Option is not exercisable more than five (5) years from the date of grant thereof. No Participant
shall be granted any Incentive Stock Option which would result in such Participant receiving a grant of Incentive Stock Options that would have an aggregate Fair Market Value in excess of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), determined as of the
time of grant, that would be exercisable for the first time by such Participant during any calendar year. No Incentive Stock Option may be granted under the IMAX LTIP after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date. The terms of any Incentive
Stock Option granted under the IMAX LTIP shall comply in all respects with the provisions of Section 422 of the Code, or any successor provision thereto, as amended from time to time. 

 

	8.	 Terms and Conditions of Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units 



(a)    Restricted Shares: The Committee, in its discretion, may grant or sell Restricted Shares to Eligible
Individuals. An Award of Restricted Shares shall consist of one or more Common Shares granted or sold to an Eligible Individual, and shall be subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in the IMAX LTIP and established by the
Committee in connection with the Award and specified in the applicable Award Document. Restricted Shares may, among other things, be subject to restrictions on transferability, vesting requirements or other specified circumstances under which it may
be canceled. 
 (b)    Restricted Share Units: The Committee, in its discretion, may grant Restricted Share Units
to Eligible Individuals. A Restricted Share Unit shall entitle a Participant to receive, subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in the IMAX LTIP and the applicable Award Document, one or more Common Shares. Restricted Share
Units may, among other things, be subject to restrictions on transferability, vesting requirements or other specified circumstances under which they may be canceled. If and when the cancellation provisions lapse, the Restricted Share Units shall
become Common Shares owned by the applicable Participant or, at the sole discretion of the Committee, cash, or a combination of cash and Common Shares, with a value equal to the Fair Market Value of the Common Shares at the time of payment. 

 

	9.	 Stock Appreciation Rights 



The Committee, in its discretion, may grant Stock Appreciation Rights to Eligible Individuals. The Committee may grant Stock Appreciation
Rights in tandem with Options or as stand-alone Awards. Each Stock Appreciation Right shall be subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in the IMAX LTIP and established by the Committee in connection with the Award and specified
in the applicable Award Document. A Stock Appreciation Right shall entitle a Participant to receive, upon satisfaction of the conditions to payment specified in the applicable Award Document, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Fair Market
Value of a Common Share on the exercise date of the number of Common Shares for which the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised over the per Common Share grant price for such Stock Appreciation Right specified in the applicable Award Document.
Payments to a Participant upon exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right may be made in cash or Common Shares, as determined by the Committee on or following the date of grant. 

  
 15 














	10.	 Terms and Conditions of Performance Stock, Performance Stock Units and Cash Performance Units



 (a)    Performance Stock or Performance Stock Units: The Committee may grant Performance
Stock or Performance Stock Units to Eligible Individuals. An Award of Performance Stock or Performance Stock Units shall consist of, or represent a right to receive, a Target Amount of Common Shares granted to an Eligible Individual based on the
achievement of Performance Targets over the applicable Performance Period, and shall be subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in the IMAX LTIP and established by the Committee in connection with the Award and specified in the
applicable Award Document. Payments to a Participant in settlement of an Award of Performance Stock or Performance Stock Units may be made in cash or Common Shares, as determined by the Committee on or following the date of grant. 

(b)    Cash Performance Units: The Committee, in its discretion, may grant Cash Performance Units to Eligible
Individuals. A Cash Performance Unit shall entitle a Participant to receive, subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in the IMAX LTIP and established by the Committee in connection with the Award and specified in the applicable
Award Document, a Target Amount of cash based upon the achievement of Performance Targets over the applicable Performance Period. Payments to a Participant in settlement of an Award of Cash Performance Units may be made in cash or Common Shares, as

	11.	 Other Awards 



The Committee shall have the authority to specify the terms and provisions of other forms of equity-based or equity-related Awards not
described above that the Committee determines to be consistent with the purpose of the IMAX LTIP and the interests of the Company, which Awards may provide for cash payments based in whole or in part on the value or future value of Common Shares,
for the acquisition or future acquisition of Common Shares, or any combination thereof. 
  

	12.	 Certain Restrictions 



(a)    Transfers: No Award shall be transferable other than pursuant to a beneficiary designation approved by the
Company, by last will and testament or by the laws of descent and distribution or, except in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, pursuant to a domestic relations order, as the case may be; provided, however, that the Committee may,
subject to applicable laws, rules and regulations and such terms and conditions as it shall specify, permit the transfer of an Award, other than an Incentive Stock Option, for no consideration to a Permitted Transferee. Any Award transferred to a
Permitted Transferee shall be further transferable only by last will and testament or the laws of descent and distribution or, for no consideration, to another Permitted Transferee of the Participant. 

(b)    Award Exercisable Only by Participant: During the lifetime of a Participant, an Award shall be exercisable
only by the Participant or by a Permitted Transferee to whom such Award has been transferred in accordance with Section 12(a) above. The grant of an Award shall impose no obligation on a Participant to exercise or settle the Award. 

  
 16 














	13.	 Recapitalization or Reorganization 



(a)    Authority of the Company and Shareholders: The existence of the IMAX LTIP, the Award Documents and the
Awards granted hereunder shall not affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Company or the shareholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company’s capital
structure or business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of stock or of options, warrants or rights to purchase stock or of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stocks whose rights are superior to or affect the Common
Shares or the rights thereof or which are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or
proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise. 
 (b)    Change in Capitalization: Notwithstanding
any provision of the IMAX LTIP or any Award Document, the number and kind of Common Shares authorized for issuance under Section 5, including the maximum number of Common Shares available under the special limits provided for in
Section 5(c), shall be equitably adjusted in the manner deemed necessary by the Committee in the event of a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation, reclassification,
merger, consolidation, separation, extraordinary stock or cash dividend, split-up, spin-off, combination, exchange of Common Shares, warrants or rights offering to
purchase Common Shares at a price substantially below Fair Market Value, or any other corporate event or distribution of stock or property of the Company affecting the Common Shares in order to preserve, but not increase, the benefits or potential
benefits intended to be made available under the IMAX LTIP. In addition, upon the occurrence of any of the foregoing events, the number and kind of Common Shares subject to any outstanding Award and the exercise price per Common Share (or the
grant price per Common Share, as the case may be), if any, under any outstanding Award shall be equitably adjusted in the manner deemed necessary by the Committee (including by payment of cash to a Participant) in order to preserve the benefits or
potential benefits intended to be made available to Participants. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, such adjusted Awards shall be subject to the same restrictions and vesting or settlement schedule to which the underlying Award is
subject (subject to the limitations of Section 409A of the Code). 
  

	14.	 Term of the IMAX LTIP 



Unless earlier terminated pursuant to Section 15, the IMAX LTIP shall terminate on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Effective Date, except with respect to Awards then outstanding. No Awards may be granted under the IMAX LTIP after the tenth
(10th) anniversary of the Effective Date. 

  
 17 














	15.	 Amendment and Termination 



Subject to applicable laws, rules and regulations, the Board may at any time terminate or, from time to time, amend, modify or suspend the
IMAX LTIP; provided, however, that no termination, amendment, modification or suspension (i) will be effective without the approval of the shareholders of the Company if such approval is required under applicable laws, rules and
regulations, including the rules of the NYSE and such other securities exchanges, if any, as may be designated by the Board from time to time, and (ii) shall materially and adversely alter or impair the rights of a Participant in any Award
previously made under the IMAX LTIP without the consent of the holder thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board shall have broad authority to amend the IMAX LTIP or any Award under the IMAX LTIP without the consent of a Participant to the
extent it deems necessary or desirable (a) to comply with, or take into account changes in, or interpretations of, applicable tax laws, securities laws, employment laws, accounting rules and other applicable laws, rules and regulations,
(b) to take into account unusual or nonrecurring events or market conditions (including, without limitation, the events described in Section 13(b)) or (c) to take into account significant acquisitions or dispositions of assets or
other property by the Company. 
  

	16.	 Miscellaneous 



(a)    Tax Withholding: The Company or an Affiliate, as appropriate, may require any individual entitled to receive
a payment of an Award to remit to the Company, prior to payment, an amount sufficient to satisfy any applicable tax withholding requirements. In the case of an Award payable in Common Shares, the Company or an Affiliate, as appropriate, may permit
or require a Participant to satisfy, in whole or in part, such obligation to remit taxes by directing the Company to withhold Common Shares that would otherwise be received by such individual or to repurchase Common Shares that were issued to the
Participant to satisfy the tax withholding obligations in accordance with all applicable laws and pursuant to such rules as the Committee may establish from time to time, up to the maximum rate. The Company or an Affiliate, as appropriate, shall
also have the right to deduct from all cash payments made to a Participant (whether or not such payment is made in connection with an Award) any applicable taxes required to be withheld with respect to such payments. 

(b)    No Right to Awards or Employment: No person shall have any claim or right to receive Awards under the IMAX
LTIP. Neither the IMAX LTIP, the grant of Awards under the IMAX LTIP nor any action taken or omitted to be taken under the IMAX LTIP shall be deemed to create or confer on any Eligible Individual any right to be retained in the employ of the Company
or any of its Affiliates, or to interfere with or to limit in any way the right of the Company or any of its Affiliates to terminate the employment of such Eligible Individual at any time. No Award shall constitute salary, recurrent compensation or
contractual compensation for the year of grant, any later year or any other period of time. Payments received by a Participant under any Award made pursuant to the IMAX LTIP shall not be included in, nor have any effect on, the determination of
employment-related rights or benefits under any other employee benefit plan or similar arrangement provided by the Company and its Affiliates, unless otherwise specifically provided for under the terms of such plan or arrangement or by the
Committee. 

  
 18 













 (c)    Securities Law Restrictions: An Award may not be exercised
or settled, and no Common Shares may be issued in connection with an Award, unless the issuance of such shares (i) has been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (ii) has qualified under applicable state “blue
sky” laws (or the Company has determined that an exemption from registration and from qualification under such state “blue sky” laws is available) and (iii) complies with all applicable foreign securities laws. The Committee may
require each Participant purchasing or acquiring Common Shares pursuant to an Award under the IMAX LTIP to represent to and agree with the Company in writing that such Eligible Individual is acquiring the Common Shares for investment purposes and
not with a view to the distribution thereof. All certificates for Common Shares delivered under the IMAX LTIP shall be subject to such stock-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations, and
other requirements of the SEC, any exchange upon which the Common Shares are then listed, and any applicable securities law, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such
restrictions. 
 (d)    Section 16 of the Exchange Act: Notwithstanding anything contained in the IMAX LTIP or
any Award Document under the IMAX LTIP to the contrary, if the consummation of any transaction under the IMAX LTIP, or the taking of any action by the Committee in connection with a Change in Control of the Company, would result in the possible
imposition of liability on a Participant pursuant to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the Committee shall have the right, in its discretion, but shall not be obligated, to defer such transaction or the effectiveness of such action to the
extent necessary to avoid such liability, but in no event for a period longer than 180 days. 
 (e)    Section 409A
of the Code: To the extent that the Committee determines that any Award granted under the IMAX LTIP is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Award Document evidencing such Award shall incorporate the terms and conditions required by
Section 409A of the Code. To the extent applicable, the IMAX LTIP and Award Documents shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and interpretive guidance issued thereunder. Notwithstanding any contrary provision in
the IMAX LTIP or an Award Document, if the Committee determines that any provision of the IMAX LTIP or an Award Document contravenes any regulations or guidance promulgated under Section 409A of the Code or would cause an Award to be subject to
additional taxes, accelerated taxation, interest and/or penalties under Section 409A of the Code, the Committee may modify or amend such provision of the IMAX LTIP or Award Document without consent of the Participant in any manner the Committee
deems reasonable or necessary. In making such modifications the Committee shall attempt, but shall not be obligated, to maintain, to the maximum extent practicable, the original intent of the applicable provision without contravening the provisions
of Section 409A of the Code. Moreover, any discretionary authority that the Committee may have pursuant to the IMAX LTIP shall not be applicable to an Award that is subject to Section 409A of the Code to the extent such discretionary
authority would contravene Section 409A of the Code. 
 (f)    Awards to Individuals Subject to Laws of a
Jurisdiction Outside of the United States: To the extent that Awards under the IMAX LTIP are awarded to Eligible Individuals who are domiciled or resident outside of the United States or to persons who are domiciled or resident in the United
States but who are subject to the tax laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States, the Committee may adjust the terms of the Awards granted hereunder to such person (i) to comply with the laws, rules and regulations of such jurisdiction
and (ii) to permit the grant of the Award not to be a taxable event to the Participant. The authority granted under the previous sentence shall include the discretion for the Committee to adopt, on behalf of the Company, one or more sub-plans applicable to separate classes of Eligible Individuals who are subject to the laws of jurisdictions outside of the United States. 

(g)    References to Termination of Employment: References to “termination of employment” shall also mean
termination of any other service relationship of the Participant with the Company, as applicable. 

  
 19 













 (h)    No Limitation on Corporate Actions: Nothing contained in
the IMAX LTIP shall be construed to prevent the Company or any Affiliate from taking any corporate action, whether or not such action would have an adverse effect on any Awards made under the IMAX LTIP. No Participant, beneficiary or other person
shall have any claim against the Company or any Affiliate as a result of any such action. 
 (i)    Unfunded
Plan: The IMAX LTIP is intended to constitute an unfunded plan for incentive compensation. Prior to the issuance of Common Shares, cash or other form of payment in connection with an Award, nothing contained herein shall give any Participant any
rights that are greater than those of a general unsecured creditor of the Company. 
 (j)    Successors: All
obligations of the Company under the IMAX LTIP with respect to Awards granted hereunder shall be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation,
or otherwise, of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company. 
 (k)    Application of
Funds: The proceeds received by the Company from the sale of Common Shares pursuant to Awards will be used for general corporate purposes. 

(l)    Satisfaction of Obligations: Subject to applicable laws, rules and regulations, the Company may apply any
cash, Common Shares, securities or other consideration received upon exercise of settlement of an Award to any obligations a Participant owes to the Company and its Affiliates in connection with the IMAX LTIP or otherwise. 

(m)    Award Document: In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the IMAX LTIP and any Award Document,
the IMAX LTIP shall govern and the Award Document shall be interpreted to minimize or eliminate any such conflict or inconsistency. 

(n)    Headings: The headings of Sections herein are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not
affect the meaning of any of the provisions of the IMAX LTIP. 
 (o)    Severability: If any provision of this
IMAX LTIP is held unenforceable, the remainder of the IMAX LTIP shall continue in full force and effect without regard to such unenforceable provision and shall be applied as though the unenforceable provision were not contained in the IMAX LTIP.

 (p)    Governing Law: Except as to matters of federal law, the IMAX LTIP and all actions taken thereunder
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
