Thanks Revenue How was 47% of list price derived? Is that contractual with distributor? If there is a second printing, is the 47% continue to apply? Direct costs PPB - what is the derivation on a per title basis — cost varies per unit/ median $1.72/ title. PPB If there is a second printing would the per unit amount remain the same? EFTA_R1_01782292 EFTA02596989 Plant expense - what is the derivation on a per title basis. Please provide detail, eg development, photo, artist fees, copy editing Plant expense — please confirm that if there is a second printing then there is no incremental plant expense Royalty — pls send some sample contracts Royalty — I see benchmark payment schedule, eg amount at hardcover publish date; amount at softcover publish date. Are these contractual by date? Royalty — Under what circumstances would these amounts need to be returned? Royalty — if there is a scheduled softcover payment and the book is not release in softcover, is the payment cancelled? Royalty — what is Royalty/ expense memorandum? I assume it is the total amount of advances paid to author? Royalty — Cash flow — Cash Outflow (Best case scenario) includes "Royalties advances (14) ($1,441,000) and "Additional (14) Royalty Payments ($1,552,071). These two amounts add up to $2,993,071. I understand this amount to be equal to total royalties payable if all print quantities sold. Please clarify that the "Royalty Advances(14) were actually paid in 2014 (not 2015). Selling and distribution — 10% is paid to distributor; what is the additional 3%? If there is a second printing, is 13% continue to apply? M&P - what is the derivation on a per title basis. Please provide detail Freight - what is the derivation on a per title basis. Please provide detail Richard Joslin 2 EFTA_R1_01782293 EFTA02596990 CFO Elysium Management LLC 445 Park Ave Ste. 1401 New York, NY 10022 (w) (c) (f) www.imax.com IMAX is a registered trademark of IMAX Corporation.
