                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

         THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the "AGREEMENT") is made and entered into as
of June 19, 2002, (the "EFFECTIVE DATE") by and between Cinemark, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY") and Lee Roy Mitchell (the "EXECUTIVE").

                                   WITNESSETH:

         WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive desire to enter into an
employment arrangement and this Agreement to assure the Company of the
continuing and exclusive service of the Executive and to set forth the terms and
conditions of the Executive's employment with the Company.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants
set forth herein, the parties agree as follows:

as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The Executive's duties,
responsibilities and authority shall be normal, customary, and consistent with
the Executive's position and shall include serving in a similar capacity with
Cinemark USA, Inc. and such other duties, responsibilities and authority as may
be mutually agreed upon by the Executive and the Board of Directors of the
Company (the "BOARD"). The Executive shall report directly to the Board of
Directors of the Company. Should, commencing with the 2003 annual meeting of
stockholders of the Company and continuing throughout the Term of this
Agreement, Executive not be nominated to serve (or, if nominated, not be elected
to serve) as Chairman of the Board, then Executive may, as provided in Section
4.4 of this Agreement, terminate Executive's employment hereunder, which
termination shall be deemed to be for Good Reason, as defined in Section 4.4.

                  1.2 Services and Exclusivity of Services. Except as provided
otherwise herein, Executive shall devote Executive's best efforts, skill and
attention to the business and affairs of the Company. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Executive may engage in other activities including religious,
charitable, or other communities activities, service on other boards of
directors, investment activities and other business activities in any industry
as long as such services and activities do not materially interfere with
Executive's performance of Executive's duties as provided in this Agreement.

                  1.3 Location of Office. The Company shall make available to
the Executive an office and support services in the Dallas/Plano, Texas area.
The Executive's main office shall be at such Dallas/Plano location.

         2. Term. The term of this Agreement (the "TERM") shall commence as of
the Effective Date and shall continue for a period of three (3) years
thereafter; provided, however, that at the end of each year, the Term shall be
extended for an additional one-year period unless the Executive's employment
with the Company is terminated in accordance with Section 4. References in this
Agreement to the "balance of the Term" shall mean the period of time

remaining on the scheduled Term of this Agreement after giving effect to the
most recent extension of the Term occurring prior to any termination of this
Agreement.

         3. Compensation.

                  3.1 Base Salary. During the Term, the Company will pay to the
Executive a base salary at the rate of Six Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars
($650,000.00) per year, payable in accordance with the Company's practices in
effect from time to time ("BASE SALARY"). Amounts payable shall be reduced by
standard withholding and other authorized deductions. Such Base Salary shall be
reviewed for increase (but not decrease) in the sole discretion of the Board or
such individual, group or committee that the Board may select as its delegate
not less frequently than annually during the Term. In conducting any such
review, the Board or such delegate shall consider and take into account, among
other things, any change in the Executive's responsibilities, performance of the
Executive, and compensation of other senior executives of the other comparable
companies and other pertinent factors. The Executive's Base Salary shall not be
decreased except upon mutual agreement between Executive and the Company.

                  3.2 Bonuses; Incentive, Savings and Retirement Plans; Welfare
Benefit Plans.

                           (a) The Executive shall be entitled to participate in
         all annual and long-term bonuses and incentive, savings and retirement
         plans generally available to other senior executive employees of the
         Company. The Executive, and the Executive's family as the case may be,
         shall be eligible to participate in and receive all benefits under
         welfare benefit plans, practices, programs and policies provided to
         other senior executive employees of the Company, including, without
         limitation, medical, prescription, dental, disability, salary
         continuance, employee life, group life, accidental death and travel
         accident insurance plans and programs. The Company reserves the right
         to modify, suspend or discontinue any and all of its benefits referred
         to in this Section 3.2 at any time without recourse by the Executive so
         long as such action is taken generally with respect to other senior
         executives and does not single out the Executive.

                           (b) For each fiscal year during the Term, commencing
         with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, Executive shall be
         entitled to receive an annual incentive cash bonus (the "ANNUAL BONUS")
         based upon Company EBITDA targets established by the Board (or such
         individual, group or committee that the Board may select as its
         delegate) using the criteria set forth on Schedule 3.2(b) attached
         hereto. All such annual cash incentive bonus payments shall be payable
         within 90 days after the end of the fiscal year during which the
         criteria for payment of the Annual Bonus are achieved and shall be
         reduced by standard withholding and other authorized deductions.

                  3.3 Fringe Benefits. The Executive shall be entitled to
receive fringe benefits consistent with the Executive's duties and position, and
in accordance with the benefits provided to other senior executive employees of
the Company. The Company reserves the right to modify, suspend or discontinue
any and all of its fringe benefits referred to in this Section 3.3 at any time
without recourse by the Executive so long as such action is taken generally with
respect to other senior executives and does not single out the Executive.

beneficiary under such policy.

                  3.9 Disability Insurance. The Company shall pay the premiums
on, and maintain in effect throughout the Term of this Agreement, long-term
disability insurance providing for payment of benefits at rates not less than
sixty-six percent (66%) of Executive's Base Salary.

                  3.10 Board Service. Executive agrees to serve as the Chairman
of the Board provided he is forever indemnified for serving in such capacities
as set forth in the Indemnification Agreement, which indemnity shall survive the
termination of the Indemnification Agreement and the termination of this
Agreement. The Company will provide appropriate Directors' and Officers'
Insurance naming Executive as a named insured with limits of no less than that
provided to other officers and directors.

                  4.2 Death or Disability.

                           (a) The Company may terminate the Executive's
         employment hereunder due to death or Disability (as defined below). If
         the Executive's employment hereunder is terminated as a result of death
         or Disability, the Executive (or the Executive's estate or personal
         representative in the event of death) shall be entitled to receive (i)
         all Base Salary due to the Executive through the date of termination,
         (ii) a pro-rata portion of the Annual Bonus, if any, payable for the
         period of Executive's employment during the fiscal year of the Company
         prior to Executive's termination of employment, (iii) any previously
         vested stock options or benefits, such as retirement benefits (items
         (i) through (iii) above collectively referred to as "ACCRUED EMPLOYMENT
         ENTITLEMENTS") and (iv) the Executive's full Base Salary until the
         expiration of twelve (12) months from the date on which the Executive
         was first unable substantially to perform Executive's duties hereunder
         and, as of the last day of such twelve-month period, shall be entitled
         to receive a lump sum payment equal to an additional twelve (12) months
         of Base Salary. Within thirty (30) days following the termination of
         Executive's employment due to death or Disability, the Company shall
         make a lump sum payment to Executive or Executive's dependents
         sufficient for Executive and/or Executive's dependents to continue to

         on the same terms as senior executive active employees for a period of
         three (3) years following the termination of Executive's employment.
         The Executive and/or the Executive's dependents shall thereafter be
         entitled to any continuation of such benefits provided under such
         benefit plans or by applicable law. Following the death or Disability
         of the Executive, the Executive's participation under any stock option
         or other incentive compensation plan (other than bonuses included in
         the definition of Accrued Employment Entitlements) shall be governed by
         the terms of such plans.

                           (b) "DISABILITY" shall mean a total and permanent
         physical or mental impairment that (a) renders the Executive unable to
         perform the essential functions of the Executive's position, even with
         reasonable accommodation that does not impose an undue hardship on the
         Company, (b) has existed for three consecutive months, and (c) in the
         opinion of a physician mutually agreed upon by the Company and the
         Executive (which agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld) will
         last for a duration of at least nine months. The Executive's Disability
         shall be determined by the Company, in good faith, based upon
         information supplied by the Executive and the physician mutually agreed
         upon by the Company and the Executive.

                  4.3 Termination by the Company for Cause or by the Executive
because of a Voluntary Termination.

                           (a) The Executive's employment hereunder may be
         terminated by the Company for Cause (as hereinafter defined) or by the
         Executive under a Voluntary Termination (as hereinafter defined). If
         the Executive's employment hereunder is terminated under this Section
         4.3, the Executive shall be entitled to receive the Accrued Employment
         Entitlements. Furthermore, the Company shall honor any rights
         previously vested in the Executive under a stock option or similar
         incentive compensation plan or

         specifically set forth in this Section 4.3, the Company shall have no
         further obligations to the Executive following a termination for Cause,
         or a Voluntary Termination.

                           (b) "CAUSE" shall mean (i) Executive's conviction of
         a felony and incarceration, (ii) a material and continuing breach of
         this Agreement not cured or ceased within thirty (30) days after notice
         of such breach by the Board, or (iii) the intentional wrongful damage
         to material property of the Company or its affiliates.

                           (c) "VOLUNTARY TERMINATION" shall mean a termination
         of employment by the Executive on Executive's own initiative other than
         (i) a termination due to Disability or (ii) a termination for Good
         Reason.

                           (d) The Company may not terminate the Executive's
         employment for Cause unless:

                                (i) The Company provides the Executive with
                  written notice (the "NOTICE OF TERMINATION") of its intent to
                  terminate the Executive's employment for Cause, including a
                  detailed description of the specific reasons which form the
                  basis for such termination as well as the effective date of
                  such termination of employment (which effective date may be
                  the date of such Notice of Termination);

                                (ii) for a period of not less than thirty (30)
                  days after the date Notice of Termination is provided, the
                  Executive shall have the opportunity to appear before the
                  Board with or without legal representation, at the Executive's
                  election, to present arguments and evidence on Executive's own
                  behalf; and

                                (iii) following the presentation to the Board as
                  provided in (ii) above or the Executive's failure to appear
                  before the Board at a date and time specified in the Notice of
                  Termination (which date shall not be less than ten (10) days
                  after the date the Notice of Termination is provided), the
                  termination for Cause shall become effective as of the
                  effective date specified in the Notice of Termination if (x)
                  the Board, by the affirmative vote of all of its members
                  (excluding the Executive if he is a member of the Board, and
                  any other member of the Board reasonably believed by the Board
                  to be involved in the events leading the Board to terminate
                  the Executive's employment for Cause), determines that the
                  actions or inactions of the Executive specified in the Notice
                  of Termination occurred, that such actions or inactions
                  constitute Cause, and that the Executive's employment should
                  accordingly be terminated for Cause; and (y) the Board
                  provides the Executive with a written determination (a
                  "CONFIRMATION OF TERMINATION FOR CAUSE") setting forth in
                  specific detail the basis of such termination of employment.
                  Unless the Company reasonably establishes both (i) its
                  compliance with the substantive and procedural requirements of
                  this Section 4.3(d) prior to confirmation of a termination of
                  the Executive's employment for Cause, and (ii) that the
                  Executive's action or inaction specified in the Notice of
                  Termination for Cause did occur and constituted Cause, any
                  termination of the

                  Termination without Cause for all purposes of this Agreement.

                  4.4 Termination by the Company without Cause or by the
Executive for Good Reason. The Company may terminate the Executive's employment
hereunder without Cause, and the Executive shall be permitted to terminate

benefits set forth in this Section 4.4.

                  Entitlements (in accordance with the terms of the benefit
                  plans providing such benefits, where applicable); plus

                                (ii) Executive's annual Base Salary in effect as
                  of the date of such termination, plus an amount equal to the
                  most recent Annual Bonus received by the Executive prior to
                  the date of such termination (determined without regard to any
                  performance goals), multiplied by the number of years
                  remaining for the balance of the Term; plus

                                (iii) at the Executive's option, either (x) a

                  continue to receive the Company's welfare benefit plans and
                  programs, including but not limited to health, dental, life,
                  disability, and accident insurance plans on the same terms as
                  senior active executives for a period of five (5) years
                  following the termination of Executive's employment; or (y)
                  Executive and Executive's dependents shall be entitled to
                  continue to participate in the Company's welfare benefit plans
                  and insurance programs on the same terms as similarly situated
                  active employees for a period of five (5) years from the
                  Termination Date. Following the expiration of the five (5)
                  year period, Executive and/or Executive's dependents shall be
                  entitled to any continuation of benefits as are provided under
                  such benefit plans by the Company or as are required to be
                  provided in accordance with applicable law.

                           (b) Any outstanding stock-based, equity-based or
         performance compensation awards granted to the Executive shall become
         fully vested and/or exercisable as of the effective date of such
         termination of employment and shall remain exercisable in accordance
         with the terms contained in the plan and agreement pursuant to which
         such compensation awards were granted.

                           (c) For purposes of the calculation of the
         Executive's benefit under any supplemental defined benefit plan in
         which the Executive participates, the Executive shall be credited with
         additional years of service equal to the remaining Term hereunder.

                           (d) "GOOD REASON" means and shall be deemed to exist
         if, without the prior written consent of the Executive, (i) the
         Executive suffers a reduction in duties, responsibilities or effective
         authority associated with Executive's titles and positions as set forth
         and described in this Agreement or is assigned any duties or
         responsibilities inconsistent in any material respect therewith; (ii)
         the Company fails to honor any provision of this Agreement; (iii)
         Executive is not nominated to serve (or if nominated, not elected to
         serve) as Chairman of the Board of the Company; (iv) the Company
         changes the Executive's title or reporting requirements; or (v) the
         relocation of the Company's primary offices at which Executive is
         principally employed to a location more than ten (10) miles from
         Executive's current offices, or the requirement by the Company for
         Executive to be based anywhere other than Executive's primary offices
         at such current location (or more than ten (10) miles therefrom) on an
         extended basis. No termination by the Executive shall be for "Good
         Reason" unless notice of such termination setting forth in particular
         the event(s) constituting Good Reason is delivered to the Company
         thirty (30) days prior to the date Executive terminates this Agreement.

                  4.5 Continuing Assistance. Regardless of the reason for the
termination of Executive's employment, for a period of five (5) years beginning
on the date of the termination of this Agreement, the Company will provide such
reasonable assistance and support to Executive or Executive's estate as he or
such estate shall reasonably require in connection with the preparation and
filing of tax returns, statements, and forms insofar as such returns,
statements, or forms relate to Executive's employment or other association with

         5. Arbitration.

                  5.1 General. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of
or relating to this Agreement, the breach hereof or the coverage or
enforceability of this arbitration provision shall be settled by arbitration in
Dallas, Texas (or such other location as the Company and the Executive may
mutually agree), conducted in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules
of the American Arbitration Association, as such rules are in effect in

arbitration of any such issue, including the determination of the amount of any
damages suffered by either party hereto by reason of the acts or omissions of
the other, shall be to the exclusion of any court of law. Notwithstanding the

foregoing, either party hereto may seek any provisional remedy in a court,
including but not limited to an action for injunctive relief or attachment,
without waiving the right to arbitration.

                  5.2 Procedure.


                           (a) Either party may demand such arbitration by
         giving notice of that demand to the other party. The notice shall state
         (x) the matter in controversy, and (y) the name of the arbitrator
         selected by the party giving the notice.

                           (b) Not more than fifteen days after such notice is
         given, the other party shall give notice to the party who demanded
         arbitration of the name of the arbitrator selected by the other party.
         If the other party shall fail to timely give such notice, the
         arbitrator that the other party was entitled to select shall be named
         by the Arbitration Committee of the American Arbitration Association.
         Not more than fifteen days after the second arbitrator is so named; the
         two arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator. If the two arbitrators
         shall fail to timely select a third arbitrator, the third arbitrator
         shall be named by the Arbitration Committee of the American Arbitration
         Association.

                           (c) The dispute shall be arbitrated at a hearing that
         shall be concluded within ten days immediately following the date the
         dispute is submitted to arbitration unless a majority of the
         arbitrators shall elect to extend the period of arbitration. Any award
         made by a majority of the arbitrators (x) shall be made within ten days
         following the conclusion of the arbitration hearing, (y) shall be
         conclusive and binding on the parties, and (z) may be made the subject
         of a judgment of any court having jurisdiction.

                           (d) The Company agrees that it will pay Executive's
         salary and benefits through conclusion of the arbitration.

                           (e) Any amount to which Executive is entitled under
         this Agreement (including any disputed amount) which is not paid when
         due shall bear interest from the date due but not paid at a rate equal
         to the lesser of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the maximum lawful
         rate.

                  5.3 Costs and Expenses. All administrative and arbitration
fees, costs and expenses shall be borne by the Company.

         6. Non-Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assignable nor the
duties hereunder delegable by the Executive. None of the payments hereunder may
be encumbered or in any way anticipated by the Executive (or Executive's estate
or personal representative). The Company shall not assign this Agreement nor
shall it transfer all or any substantial part of its assets without first
obtaining in conjunction with such transfer the express assumption of the
obligations hereof by the assignee or transferee.

         7. Survival. The provisions of Sections 4 and 5 shall survive the
expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

         8. Taxes. All payments to the Executive under this Agreement shall be
reduced by all applicable withholding required by Federal, state or local law.

                  9.1 The Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount
of any payment or other benefit required to be paid to the Executive pursuant to
this Agreement, whether by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the
amount of any such payment or other benefit be reduced on account of any
compensation earned by the Executive as a result of employment by another
person.

                  9.2 The Company's obligation to make the payments provided for
in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not

right or action which the Company may have against the Executive or others.

         14. Severability. If any portion or provision of this Agreement is
determined by arbitration or by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable, the remaining portions or provisions hereof shall not
be affected. The covenants in this Agreement are severable and separate, and the
unenforceability of any specific covenant shall not affect the enforceability of
any other covenant. Moreover, in the event any court of competent jurisdiction
shall determine that the scope, time or territorial restrictions set forth are
unreasonable, then it is the intention of the parties that such restrictions be
enforced to the fullest extent which the court deems reasonable, and this
Agreement shall thereby be reformed.

this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the permitted
successors, assigns, heirs, administrators, executors and personal
representatives of the parties.

                                 Schedule 3.2(b)


         Executive will be entitled to participate in the Company's current
bonus program in effect or as may be amended from time to time during the Term
of this Agreement. Pursuant to the bonus plan as currently in effect as of the
date of this Agreement, Executive is entitled to an Annual Bonus determined as
follows. During December of each fiscal year, the Board (or such individual,
group or committee that the Board may select as its delegate), shall set a
target EBITDA for the Company on a consolidated basis (the "TARGET") for the
next fiscal year. For the 2002 fiscal year the Target is $186.5 million. The
Executive shall receive a cash bonus equal to (i) a minimum of 80% of
Executive's annual Base Salary if the EBITDA of the Company is at least 95% of
the Target, or (ii) 150% of Executive's annual Base Salary if the EBITDA of the
Company is equal to or greater than the Target. The percentage of the
Executive's annual Base Salary shall be adjusted proportionately upward or
downward, as applicable, from the established percentages if the EBITDA of the
Company falls between the threshold percentages specified above. If EBITDA for
any fiscal year is less than 95% of the Target, no Annual Bonus will be paid.
