pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreement (as defined
below), in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained and other good and valuable
consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which are hereby acknowledged, hereby agree as
follows:

     WHEREAS, reference is made to the Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of June 27, 2007 (as
amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Securities
Purchase Agreement”) among THE FILM DEPARTMENT LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the
“Company”), Holdings, the Purchasers party thereto and UNION BANK, N.A., formerly known as
Union Bank of California, N.A. (“UBOC”) as collateral agent for the Secured Parties defined
therein (in such capacity, and together with its successors and permitted assigns, the
“Collateral Agent”). Terms defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement and not otherwise
defined herein are used herein as therein defined.

     WHEREAS, the signatories hereto constitute the Required Holders;

     WHEREAS, the definition of “Qualifying Film” in Section 1.1 (Definitions) of the
Securities Purchase Agreement provides that any film must meet the eligibility criteria for
inclusion in the borrowing base established pursuant to the Credit Agreement; and, pursuant to
item (g) of the definition of Qualifying Film in the Credit Agreement, if the Film Budget for such
Film exceeds $27,500,000, such Film is guaranteed domestic distribution prior to the start of
production on terms that are the same or better than the Approved Distribution Agreement Terms (the
“Domestic Deal Requirement”);

     WHEREAS, the Company and LAC Films, LLC (“LAC”) have entered into a distribution
agreement (the “Overture Distribution Agreement”), dated as of January 20, 2009, with

Agreement) make Loans (as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement) with respect to the LAC
Film, which has a Film Budget of over $27,500,000, and (b) UBOC and certain Lenders and Holders
contend that the Overture Distribution Agreement does not currently satisfy the Domestic Deal
Requirement as a result of the inclusion of certain conditions subsequent therein;

     WHEREAS, the Required Holders have agreed to provide a waiver, with respect to the LAC Film
only, of the Domestic Deal Requirement in order for the LAC Film to constitute a Qualifying Film;

1

 

     WHEREAS, the Company desires to obtain certain other consents deemed necessary by UBOC and the
Required Holders in relation to the Overture Distribution Agreement;

     WHEREAS, the Company, Holdings and the Required Holders have agreed to amend the Securities

terms and conditions set forth in this Waiver, Consent and Amendment (this “Agreement”);
and

     WHEREAS, Section 11.1 of the Securities Purchase Agreement provides that the Required
Holders, the Company and the Collateral Agent execute this Agreement.

WAIVER OF DOMESTIC DEAL REQUIREMENT

     The Required Holders hereby waive the Domestic Deal Requirement with respect to the LAC Film
only.

CONSENT

1. The Required Holders hereby agree and consent, with respect to the LAC Film only, that the TFD
Guarantee (as such term is defined in the Overture Distribution Agreement) does not violate the
provisions of Section 8.1 of the Securities Purchase Agreement (as amended hereby).

AMENDMENTS

1. The definition of “Indebtedness” in Section 1.1 of the Securities Purchase
Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

whether or not matured: (a) all indebtedness for borrowed money, (b) all obligations
evidenced by notes, bonds, debentures or similar instruments, (c) all reimbursement and all
obligations with respect to (i) letters of credit, bank guarantees or bankers’ acceptances
or (ii) surety, customs, reclamation or performance bonds (in each case not related to
judgments or litigation) other than those entered into in the ordinary course of business,
(d) all obligations to pay the deferred purchase price of property or services, other than
trade payables incurred in the ordinary course of business, (e) all obligations created or
arising under any conditional sale or other title retention agreement, regardless of whether
the rights and remedies of the seller or lender under such agreement in the event of default
are limited to repossession or sale of such property, (f) all Capitalized Lease Obligations,
(g) all obligations, whether or not contingent, to purchase, redeem, retire, defease or
otherwise acquire for value any of its own Stock or Stock Equivalents (or any Stock or Stock
Equivalent of a direct or indirect parent entity thereof) prior to the date that is 180 days
after the Scheduled Maturity Date, valued at, in the case of redeemable preferred Stock, the
greater of the voluntary liquidation preference and the involuntary liquidation preference
of such Stock plus accrued and unpaid dividends, (h) all payments that would be required to
be made in respect of any Hedging Agreement in the event of a termination (including an
early termination) on the date of determination, (i) all Guaranty Obligations for
obligations of any other Person constituting Indebtedness

2

 

of such other Person and (j) any obligations (direct, indirect, contingent or otherwise)
with respect to prints and advertising expenses, whether supported by a payment guarantee,
reimbursement agreement or otherwise; provided, however, that the items in each of clauses
(a) through (j) above shall constitute ‘Indebtedness’ of such Person solely to the extent,
directly or indirectly, (x) such Person is liable for any part of any such item, (y) any
such item is secured by a Lien on such Person’s property or (z) any other Person has a
right, contingent or otherwise, to cause such Person to become liable for any part of any
such item or to grant such a Lien.”

2. Section 8.1 of the Securities Purchase Agreement is hereby amended by deleting clause
(d) thereof in its entirety and substituting the following in lieu thereof:

     “(d) Guaranty Obligations of any Group Member with respect to Indebtedness or other
unsecured obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business of any Group Member other
than Holdings (other than Indebtedness permitted hereunder in reliance upon clause (b)
above, for which Guaranty Obligations may be permitted to the extent set forth in such
clauses); provided, however, that this clause (d) shall not be deemed to permit any Group
Member to incur, or otherwise remain liable with respect to or responsible for,
Guaranty Obligations with respect to Indebtedness or other unsecured obligations (direct,
indirect, contingent or otherwise) with respect to prints and advertising expenses, whether
supported by a payment guarantee, reimbursement agreement or otherwise;”

	3.	 	Article VIII of the Securities Purchase Agreement is amended to add the following
Section 8.18:

     “Section 8.18 Obligations.

     (a) At no time shall the aggregate maximum outstanding face amount of all letters of credit
issued on behalf of (or to support the obligations of) one or more of the Group Members (including
Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement or any credit facility that replaces or
refinances the Credit Agreement) exceed $5,000,000.

     (b) No Group Member shall, directly or indirectly, enter into or otherwise incur (whether
pursuant to a direct obligation, contingent obligation, reimbursement obligation, a guarantee or
otherwise) any obligation in respect of prints and advertising costs for a Film other than the TFD
Guarantee.”
