                           SECOND AMENDMENT AGREEMENT

        This Second Amendment Agreement ("Second Amendment Agreement") is
entered into this May 19, 2003 by and between Lions Gate Entertainment Corp and
its subsidiaries ("Employer") and Marni Wieshofer ("Employee"). It amends that
certain Amendment Agreement between Employer and Employee dated as of the 10th
day of August, 2002 ("First Amendment Agreement") and by extension that certain
Employment Agreement ("Agreement") by between Employer and Employee, dated as of
August 26, 2000.

        For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which is hereby acknowledged, Lions Gate and Employee agree to amend the First
Amendment Agreement and by extension the Agreement as set for herein below:

        The paragraph numbers below correspond to the paragraph numbers in the
First Amendment Agreement and by extension the Agreement.

        PARAGRAPH 2 OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT AGREEMENT AND BY EXTENSION THE
AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED DELETED AND THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH SHALL BE INSERTED
IN ITS PLACE:

        2. Term: Paragraph 2 shall be deemed deleted from the Agreement in its
entirety and the following Paragraph shall be inserted in its place.

        The Term of the Agreement shall end on November 26, 2003, unless
        terminated earlier as set forth below or as described under the other
        provisions of this Agreement:

        As of the Effective Date, Employee shall have the affirmative duty to
        engage in reasonable good faith efforts to secure other employment
        ("Third Party Employment"). In the event that Employee does secure Third
        Party Employment with compensation equal to the market rate for a person
        of Employee's skill, training and experience, Employee shall be entitled
        to accept such Third Party Employment. This Agreement shall be deemed
        terminated as of the date that Employee accepts such Third Party
        Employment opportunity and Lions Gate shall have no further obligations
        to Employee except to pay Employee, on a monthly basis, through November
        26, 2003, the difference between the compensation Employee would have
        earned under this Agreement (inclusive of the housing allowance) and the
        compensation Employee earns in connection with the Third Party
        Employment ("Mitigated Payment"). For the purpose of clarity, after
        taking into consideration Employee's housing allowance, Employee's
        monthly compensation under this Agreement is equal to $25,833.34. Lions
        Gate shall have the right to make all required deductions and
        withholdings in connection with the Mitigated Payment.

        In addition, Employee shall be entitled to a bonus of $20,000 upon
        execution hereof. Employee acknowledges that Employee is in receipt of
        this bonus.

        Employee shall not be entitled to structure her Third Party Employment
        arrangement with purpose of increasing the amount of the Mitigated
        Payment. It shall be material breach of this Agreement and Lions Gate
        shall have the right to terminate Employee for cause in the event that
        Employee structures her Third Party Employment agreement with the effect
        of Employee receiving reduced compensation under such Third Party
        Employment

<PAGE>

        agreement prior to November 26, 2003 and increased compensation at a
        point in time after November 26, 2003.

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Employee's work-load is
        substantially and in effect full-time employment (i.e. in excess of
        thirty five hours per week), Employee shall not have the affirmative
        duty to engage in reasonable good faith efforts to secure Third Party
        Employment, but Employee may do so at Employee's election.

        In the event that Employee secures Third Party Employment, Employee
        shall nonetheless remain reasonably available to Lions Gate (even after
        commencing such Third Party Employment) for the purpose of consulting
        with Lions Gate and transferring Employee's knowledge, information, and
        files pertaining to Lions Gate to other executives at Lions Gate.
        Employee shall also make herself reasonably available to testify at any
        legal proceedings pertaining to Lions Gate where her testimony may be
        required.

         In the event that Employee has not secured Third Party Employment by
         August 26, 2003, then, unless Employee so requests, Lions Gate shall
         not assign Employee any substantial employment responsibilities after
         such date.

        PARAGRAPH 5 OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT AGREEMENT AND BY EXTENSION THE
AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED DELETED AND THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH SHALL BE INSERTED
IN ITS PLACE:

        5: Options: Paragraph 5(c) and (d) shall be deemed deleted from the
Agreement in their entirety and the following Paragraph 5(c) shall be inserted
in its place:

        "5(c). Employee (or Employee's estate in the event of the death of
Employee) shall have twelve months from November 23, 2003 to exercise all vested
stock options."

        The 25,000 stock options that are scheduled to vest on August 23, 2003
shall vest on the earlier of August 23, 2003 or Employee's last day of
employment whenever such day may be.

        The remaining terms of the Agreement and the First Amendment Agreement,
as amended hereby, to remain in full force and effect.
