W I T N E S S E T H :

WHEREAS, the parties have entered into a Partnership Agreement dated as of August 30, 1988; and

WHEREAS, the parties desire to amend the Agreement as hereinafter set forth;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants made herein and other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1. All capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Agreement unless otherwise specifically defined herein. All references herein to Sections refer to Sections in the Agreement.

2. Section 18.2(b) is amended to substitute the word “Assets” for the word “Liabilities” set forth at the beginning of the second to last line of page 40.

3. Section 25.1 is amended by adding the following Paragraphs (f), (g) and (h):

(f) All Losses sustained or incurred by any Star Indemnified Party (it being understood that if the Partnership sustains or incurs any Loss, the Star Indemnified Parties collectively shall be deemed to have sustained or incurred one-half of any such Loss) arising out of the dispossession of the Partnership from the Theatre Property located at 1136 South Rochester Road, Rochester Hills, Michigan 48063 (the “Winchester Mall Theatre Property”) or increased rent required to be paid by the Partnership under a renegotiated lease of the Winchester Mall Theatre Property, in the event that Loeks fails to obtain Non-Disturbance Agreements (as hereinafter defined) with respect to that certain Lease, dated as of January 3, 1980, by and between Wind Mall Realty, Inc., predecessor in interest to Winchester Mall Associates Limited Partnership, and Winchester Mall Associates, predecessor in interest to Loeks Winchester Theatres, Inc., as amended by Amendments dated May 27, 1983, August 30, 1984, May 13, 1985, and October 28, 1988 (collectively, the “Winchester Mall Lease”). “Non-Disturbance Agreements” shall mean agreements from the holders of each of the instruments listed on Schedule 25.1(f) attached hereto covering the Winchester Mall Theatre Property or any interest of the Landlord therein in substantially the form of the Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement attached as Exhibit I to the Amendment to the Winchester Mall Lease dated October 28, 1988. Loeks shall not be required to obtain a Non-Disturbance Agreement from the holder of any such instrument that is now or hereafter discharged of record.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnity obligation of Loeks as to matters specified in this Paragraph (f) shall be limited to the following time periods and amounts:

(i) If the Partnership is dispossessed from the Winchester Mall Theatre Property following foreclosure by the mortgagee prior to the earlier of (x) the end of the Lease Term, (y) 5 years from the Closing Date or (z) the date upon which Loeks has obtained all Non-Disturbance Agreements, an amount equal to $4.5 million multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months remaining in the 9-year period after the Closing Date (calculated to the nearest month) and the denominator of which is 108. Such amount shall bear interest at the Prime Rate and shall be paid by Loeks as follows:

(A) Within 5 days after the date of each Partnership Distribution, Loeks shall pay to Star an installment equal to 20% of the Partnership Distribution received by Loeks; provided, however, that if a Partnership Distribution includes Net Capital Proceeds (as hereinafter defined), Loeks shall pay to Star an installment equal to 100% of the Net Capital Proceeds included in such Partnership Distribution, less any amount paid under a Deed of Direction pursuant to Section 7. 2, plus 20% of the balance of such Partnership Distribution. “Net Capital Proceeds” shall mean the gross cash receipts from sales, exchanges or other dispositions of all or part of the assets of the Partnership or from borrowings by the Partnership, less the amount paid in connection with such sales, exchanges, dispositions or borrowings, including, without limitation, brokerage commissions, other transaction costs and payment of mortgage or other indebtedness secured by the assets in question.

(B) Loeks shall pay to Star the balance of such amount, together with any unpaid interest, 3 years after the Partnership is dispossessed from the Winchester Mall Theatre Property.

(ii) If the Winchester Mall Lease is renegotiated by the Partnership in order to continue in possession following a foreclosure or a threat of foreclosure by the mortgagee prior to the earlier of (x) the end of the Lease Term, (y) 5 years from the Closing Date or (z) the date upon which Loeks has obtained all Non-Disturbance Agreements, an amount, payable on an annual basis, equal to one-half of the “Excess Costs” as defined herein. The “Excess Costs” shall be determined on or before February 28 of each year for the immediately preceding lease year ending January 31 (the “Lease Year”) as follows:

(A) The total amount of rent, common area charges and all other charges payable to the Landlord under the Winchester Mall Lease for the Lease Year shall be computed as though the Winchester Mall Lease had never been renegotiated. This amount shall be referred to herein as the “Alternative Rent Calculation.”

(B) The total amount of rent, common area charges and all other charges payable to the Landlord under the Winchester Mall Lease as renegotiated for the Lease Year shall be calculated. This amount shall be referred to herein as the “Actual Paid Rent.”

(C) The Alternative Rent Calculation shall be subtracted from the Actual Rent Paid, resulting in the “Excess Costs” for such Lease Year.

Loeks shall pay to Star one-half of the Excess Costs for the Lease Year together with a statement showing the calculations as set forth herein, on or before February 28 of each year during the unexpired initial term of the Winchester Mall Lease (without giving effect to any options to extend or renew) . Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate amount payable by Loeks under this subparagraph (ii) shall not exceed the amount that would have been payable under subparagraph (i) above had the Partnership been dispossessed from the Winchester Mall Theatre Property in lieu of renegotiating the Winchester Mall Lease.

If the Partnership receives any damages, expenses or other amounts (“Recovery”) from the Landlord under the Winchester Mall Lease or any other third party in connection with the dispossession of the Partnership from the Winchester Mall Theatre Property, the Recovery shall be (i) paid to Loeks to the extent necessary to reimburse Loeks for any payments made under this Paragraph (f) or (ii) paid to Star to reduce any amount payable by Loeks under this Paragraph (f) . Any Recovery in excess of the amounts paid to Loeks or Star under (i) or (ii) shall be for the account of the Partnership.

(g) All Losses sustained or incurred by any Star Indemnified Party (it being understood that if the Partnership sustains or incurs any Loss, the Star Indemnified Parties collectively shall be deemed to have sustained or incurred one-half of any such Loss) arising out of the dispossession, in whole or in part, of the Partnership from the Theatre Property located at Sears Lincoln Park Shopping Center, 1748 Dix, Lincoln Park, Michigan 48063 (the “Lincoln Park Theatre Property”), due to any violation of that certain Building Line Agreement, dated July 1, 1957, between Cecil P. Bronston, as successor co-trustee of The Supplemental Savings and Retirement Plan of Sears, Roebuck and Co. Employees, and Lincoln Park Shopping Center, recorded August 29, 1957, in Liber 13490, page 261, Wayne County Records (the “Building Line Agreement”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnity obligation of Loeks as to matters specified in this Paragraph (g) shall be limited to the following time period and amount: if the Partnership is dispossessed from the Lincoln Park Theatre Property prior to the earlier of (x) the end of the Lease Term or (y) 5 years from the Closing Date, (A) $4.5 million multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months remaining in the 9-year period after the Closing Date (calculated to the nearest month) and the denominator of which is 108, multiplied by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of seats required to be eliminated from the Lincoln Park Theatre Property to cure the violation of the Building Line Agreement and the denominator of which shall be the total number of seats in the Lincoln Park Theatre Property immediately before seats were required to be eliminated from the Lincoln Park Theatre Property to cure the violation of the Building Line Agreement, plus (C) one-half of any construction or related costs incurred by the Partnership to cure the violation of the Building Line Agreement. Such amount shall bear interest at the Prime Rate, and shall be paid by Loeks as follows:

(i) Within 5 days after the date of each Partnership Distribution, Loeks shall pay to Star an installment equal to 20% of the Partnership Distribution received by Loeks; provided, however, that if a Partnership Distribution includes Net Capital Proceeds (as hereinafter defined), Loeks shall pay to Star an installment equal

to 100% of the Net Capital Proceeds included in such Partnership Distribution, less any amount paid under a Deed of Direction pursuant to Section 7.2, plus 20% of the balance of such Partnership Distribution. “Net Capital Proceeds” shall mean the gross cash receipts from sales, exchanges or other dispositions of all or part of the assets of the Partnership or from borrowings by the Partnership, less the amount paid in connection with such sales, exchanges, dispositions or borrowings, including, without limitation, brokerage commissions, other transaction costs and payment of mortgage or other indebtedness secured by the assets in question.

(ii) Loeks shall pay to Star the balance of such amount, together with any unpaid interest, 3 years after the Partnership is dispossessed from the Lincoln Park Theatre Property.

If the Partnership receives any Recovery from the Landlord under the Lincoln Park Lease or any other third party in connection with the dispossession of the Partnership from the Lincoln Park Theatre Property, the Recovery shall be (i) paid to Loeks to the extent necessary to reimburse Loeks for any payments made under this Paragraph (g) or (ii) paid to Star to reduce any amount payable by Loeks under this Paragraph (g). Any Recovery in excess of the amounts paid to Loeks or Star under (i) or (ii) shall be for the account of the Partnership.

(h) All Losses sustained or incurred by any Star Indemnified Party and the Partnership arising out of or relating to the following tax liens: (i) federal tax lien in the amount of $72,062.55 against Winchester Mall Cinemas, Inc., dated April 13, 1983, recorded in Oakland County on April 21, 1983, in Liber 8360, page 316; (ii) state tax lien in the amount of $1,239.16, against Winchester Mall Cinemas, Inc., dated January 28, 1983, recorded in Oakland County on March 7, 1983, in Liber 8332, page 395; and (iii) state tax lien in the amount of $875.93 against Winchester Mall Cinemas, Inc., dated September 26, 1984, recorded in Oakland County on October 30, 1984, in Liber 8822, page 12.

5. Section 25.4 is amended by inserting the following sentence after the first sentence of the paragraph:

THIRD AMENDMENT TO PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT, dated as of March 9, 2000, by and between STAR THEATRES OF MICHIGAN, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Star”), and LOEKS & LOEKS ENTERTAINMENT, INC., a Michigan corporation (f/k/a Loeks Michigan Theatres, Inc.) (“Loeks”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the parties entered into a Partnership Agreement of Loeks-Star Partners (“Partnership”) dated as of August 30, 1988, which was amended by the First Amendment to Partnership Agreement dated as of November 10, 1988, and the Second Amendment to Partnership Agreement dated as of November 16, 1992 (the “Partnership Agreement”).

WHEREAS, the Partnership is a member of Star Southfield Center, LLC, a Michigan limited liability company (“Star Southfield”), which was a member of Southfield Restaurant Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Restaurant Company”);

WHEREAS, Ark Southfield Corp., a Delaware corporation, was formerly a member of Restaurant Company, but withdrew as a member on March 9, 2000;

WHEREAS, Star Southfield has distributed a portion of its membership interest in Restaurant Company to the Partnership, and Partnership has sold such interest to Loeks; and

WHEREAS, the Partners desire to amend the Partnership Agreement to clarify the management authority of Loeks with respect to all matters related to Restaurant Company and to provide for special allocations of Partnership income and cash flow to Loeks with respect to the Minimum Rent paid under the terms of the Lease dated September 28, 1999, between Star Southfield and Restaurant Company, as amended (the “Lease”), and the value attributable to such Minimum Rent in the event of any sale of Star Southfield;

1. All capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Partnership Agreement and the Lease unless otherwise specifically defined herein. All references herein to Sections refer to Sections in the Partnership Agreement.

2. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Partnership Agreement, the Loeks Partner shall receive the following special allocations of Partnership income and cash flow:

(a) an amount equal to the Minimum Rent paid by Restaurant Company to Star Southfield under the Lease multiplied by Partnership’s percentage membership interest in Star Southfield, which special allocation of cash flow shall be distributed to the Loeks Partner by the Partnership no less often than quarterly, prior to any other Partnership Distributions made under Section 14.1; and

(b) in the event of any sale of Partnership’s membership interest in Star Southfield or any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Star Southfield, an amount equal to the portion of the sale proceeds received by Partnership that is attributable to the value of the Minimum Rent payable by Restaurant Company under the Lease, which special allocation of cash flow shall be distributed to the Loeks Partner within thirty (30) days after such sale proceeds are received by the Partnership

The parties agree and acknowledge that the Minimum Rent payable by Restaurant Company under the Lease does not include the GR Rent payable under Article VIA of the Lease. Consequently, the GR Rent shall be paid by Restaurant Company to Star Southfield, and there shall be no special allocation to either Partner with respect to the GR Rent.

3. Star acknowledges and agrees that the Loeks Partner and James Loeks and Barrie Loeks, through their ownership of the Loeks Partner, shall be involved in the operation and management of Restaurant Company, and that this involvement may result in actual or potential conflicts of interest. Star expressly agrees that the existence of such actual or potential conflicts of interest shall not be a basis for any claims by Star against the Loeks Partner, James Loeks or Barrie Loeks; provided, however, that Restaurant Company shall operate the restaurants in accordance with the terms of the Lease, which shall not be assigned, amended or terminated without Star’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If Star receives a written request for consent and fails to respond in writing within fourteen (14) days, Star shall be deemed to have granted its consent provided such request contains the following admonition: “If you fail to respond to this request within fourteen (14) days after receipt of this request, you shall be deemed to have granted your consent.”

4. Except as specifically provided herein, nothing contained in this Third Amendment to Partnership Agreement shall be deemed to modify in any respect the terms, provisions, covenants, or conditions of the Partnership Agreement, and such terms, provisions, covenants, and conditions shall remain in full force and effect, as so modified.

Neither Star nor Acquisition Corp. shall enter into any agreement or take any action on behalf of the Partnership with respect to the sale or other disposition of the Partnership’s interest in Star Southfield, or the sale or other disposition of any substantial portion of the assets of Star Southfield, without the prior written consent of Loeks.

6. Conflicts. Star and Acquisition Corp acknowledge and agree that Loeks and James Loeks and Barrie Loeks, through their ownership of Loeks, are involved in the ownership, operation and management of Restaurant Company, and that this involvement may result in actual or potential conflicts of interest.

Any refund, interest or other recovery attributable to the tax year that includes the date hereof shall be prorated on a calendar year basis, and Loeks shall be entitled to 50% of any refund, interest and other amounts recovered that are attributable to the portion of the tax year through the date hereof, net of expenses as provided above.

9. Severance. The Partnership shall pay severance in accordance with Section 4.4(d) of the Purchase Agreement to those Transferred Employees whose employment with the Partnership is terminated by the Partnership.

10. Assumed Liabilities. The Partnership shall assume and pay, perform and discharge, when due, the Assumed Liabilities. The obligations of the Partnership under this Section 10 shall survive any transfer or termination of the Retained 1% Interest, the Star Southfield Interest, or the Loeks Management Rights.

11. Transfer of Star Southfield Membership Interest. At the Second Closing, provided that at the time of the Second Closing the Partnership still owns its membership interest in Star Southfield, and subject to the condition set forth in Section 12 of this Fourth Amendment:

(a) The Partnership shall assign, pursuant to the form of Assignment attached as Exhibit A hereto (the “Star Southfield Interest Assignment”), the Partnership’s membership interest in Star Southfield to Southfield Entertainment II, LLC, a Michigan limited liability company (“SE II”), of which Loeks and Star shall each own a 50% membership interest pursuant to the Operating Agreement in the form attached as Exhibit B hereto (the “SE II Operating Agreement”);

Loeks shall continue to be a Partner with respect to the Star Southfield Interest and the Loeks Management Rights until the Partnership assigns its membership interest in Star Southfield to SE II as provided in (a) above, and the parties fulfill their obligations under (b) above. Thereafter, the Star Southfield Interest and the Loeks Management Rights shall terminate. Loeks shall cease to be a Partner upon the later to occur of (a) the Second Closing and (b) the termination of the Star Southfield Interest and the Loeks Management Rights in accordance with the preceding sentence. Loeks shall also cease to be a Partner, and the Star Southfield Interest and the Loeks Management Rights shall terminate, upon the later to occur of (a) the Second Closing and (b) (i) the sale or other disposition by the Partnership of its interest in Star Southfield or the sale or other

disposition by Star Southfield of its assets and (ii) fulfillment by the Partnership of all its obligations under Section 3 of this Fourth Amendment with respect to all net proceeds and distributions received by the Partnership in connection with any such sale or disposition.

12. Condition to Transfer. The Obligations of the Partners and the Partnership with respect to the transfer of the Partnership’s membership interest in Star Southfield to SE II shall be subject to satisfaction of the condition that all consents, approvals, and authorizations of third parties required to consummate such transfer (including any consent required from Star Southfield’s mortgage lender or from Millennium) must have been obtained, other than any consents, approvals, or authorizations the failure of which to obtain would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on such transfer or on the Partners, the Partnership, or Star Southfield.

13. Indemnification. The Partnership shall indemnify and hold Loeks and Shareholders harmless against all Adverse Consequences to Loeks and Shareholders arising from or related to (a) any of the Assumed Liabilities, (b) Loeks’ continued ownership of the Retained 1% Interest as described in this Fourth Amendment (other than any Adverse Consequences resulting from the Partnership’s continuing membership interest in Star Southfield), and (c) the enforcement of indemnification rights of Loeks and Shareholders under this Section 13. If Loeks or a Shareholder makes a claim for indemnification that is determined by an arbitration panel or court of competent jurisdiction to be without reasonable basis in law or fact, Loeks will bear and promptly reimburse Acquisition Corp. and the Partnership for all costs and expenses (including court costs and reasonable legal and accounting fees) incurred by Acquisition Corp. or the Partnership in investigating and defending against the claim.

14. Other Partnership Obligations. Under the Purchase Agreement Acquisition Corp. is obligated to cause the Partnership to take certain actions and fulfill certain obligations. The Partnership hereby agrees to take all such actions and to fulfill such obligations in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement.

The Partnership acknowledges that the Office Sublease shall terminate upon the termination of the Restaurant Lease, and the Partnership hereby releases Loeks and Restaurant Company from any Adverse Consequence to the Partnership related to any such termination. Restaurant Company shall be a third party beneficiary of this Fourth Amendment only for purposes of such termination and release.

16. Partnership Agreement Remains in Full Force and Effect. Except as specifically provided herein, nothing contained in this Fourth Amendment shall be deemed to modify in any respect the terms, provisions, covenants, or conditions of the Partnership Agreement, and such terms, provisions, covenants, and conditions shall remain in full force and effect, as so modified.

17. Successors and Assigns. This Fourth Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective heirs, legal representatives, permitted successors, and assigns.

18. Counterparts. This Fourth Amendment may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

19. Amendment to Partnership Agreement. Star and Acquisition Corp. may amend the Partnership Agreement without obtaining the consent of Loeks, except that they may not amend, terminate, or otherwise modify the Partnership Agreement so as to adversely affect, in any way, the interest of Loeks, without the prior written consent of Loeks.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Fourth Amendment to Partnership Agreement as of the day and year first above written.

James and Barrie Loeks acknowledge and agree that such film settlement arrangements at CPE theatres other than the Theatre Properties are of a confidential nature and shall not be disclosed in any manner to any other person.

(d) Advertising Allowances.

Loew’s Incorporated, et al., U.S. District Ct., S.D.N.Y. No. 87-273, dated February 6, 1952, as amended (the “Consent Decree”). Loeks acknowledges receipt of the documents listed in Schedule 17.2(e) hereto and agrees that the Booking Agent and its designees shall be authorized to act in compliance therewith.

17.3. Employment of Agents, etc. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 17.3, the Booking Agent may employ, on behalf of the Partnership, in discharging its obligations hereunder, such firms or corporations (including Affiliates of Star) as it deems advisable on such terms and for such compensation as it shall determine in accordance with the Approved Operating Budget. The Booking Agent may cause the Partnership to enter into agreements or other arrangements with any Person which is an Affiliate of the Booking Agent if such agreements or arrangements are on terms which, taken as a whole, are no less favorable to the Partnership than those the Partnership could have obtained from an unaffiliated third party, and are in accordance with the Approved Operating Budget.

17.4. Accrued Film Rentals. During the term of the Partnership, the Booking Agent shall, within 10 days following the end of each month, prepare and deliver to the Operating Agent a statement of a duly qualified officer setting forth the Booking Agent’s best estimate of accrued film rental expense for the month and period then ended in connection with the preparation by the Operating Agent of the reports contemplated by Sections 16.4(b), (c) and (d).

17.5. Conflicts of Interest. Loeks acknowledges and agrees that the Booking Agent and its Affiliates are involved in, and may increase their involvement in, numerous aspects of the motion picture industry, including the production and distribution of motion picture films for exhibition in motion picture theatres, and the ownership, operation and/or management of other motion picture theatres. Loeks recognizes that these involvements may result in actual or potential conflicts of interest and that, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the existence of such actual or potential conflicts of interest shall not be a basis for any claims by any Loeks Partner against any Star Partner hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing:

(a) Loeks acknowledges that with respect to booking services, the Booking Agent may book motion pictures produced or distributed by Affiliates of the Star Partner or by persons with whom such Affiliates have commercial relationships. Loeks acknowledges that numerous subjective and non-quantifiable matters of judgment go into the decision of which films to book and the terms of such booking, and that the Booking Agent for a variety of reasons may find it in the best interests of the Partnership and of the Booking Agent, in its capacity as Booking Agent, to book films of certain Distributors (including Affiliates of the Booking Agent) and not book films of other Distributors. Without limiting or otherwise affecting the Booking Agent’s obligation to conduct the Booking Management Activities in accordance with the Booking Management Standards, or the Loeks Partner’s right to enforce the same, and without limiting the Booking Agent’s obligation to give the Theatre Properties priority over Restricted Investments pursuant to Section 19.1(b) below, Loeks acknowledges that the Booking Agent would not have entered into this Agreement if it (or its Affiliates) would be subject to claims of breach of duty or for other liabilities by any Loeks Partner on the grounds that it booked certain films, or dealt with certain Distributors, or that it booked films (regardless of terms) of Star Affiliates and Loeks agrees, in order to induce Star to enter into this Agreement that it will not assert any such claims.

(b) The Booking Agent agrees that its Settlement Policies with respect to films exhibited at Partnership Theatres which are distributed by Affiliates of Star, as a group and over any fiscal year, will not generally be more favorable to Distributors who are Affiliates of Star than the Settlement Policies generally applied during such fiscal year by the Booking Agent with respect to films exhibited at Partnership Theatres which are distributed by non-Affiliated Distributors.

(c) Loeks acknowledges that Star and its Affiliates are engaged in the operation and/or ownership of motion picture theatres in various geographic areas, and that they intend to expand their interest in the operation and ownership of motion picture theatres. Loeks further acknowledges that (i) separate geographic areas may be unique and involve factors relevant to Settlement Policies that are not of equal importance to other geographic areas, (ii) Star would not have entered into this Agreement if its conduct with respect to Settlement Policies for the Partnership was evaluated against or compared to the Settlement Policies it or its Affiliates applies in other geographic areas or markets, and (iii) Star would not have entered into this Agreement if it was required to apply the same or similar Settlement Policies hereunder as it or its Affiliates follow in other geographic areas or markets. Accordingly, Loeks and Star agree that as between themselves, (w) Settlement Policies followed in other geographic areas by Star and its Affiliates shall be deemed not relevant or pertinent to any review of or contest involving Star’s Settlement Policies for any Theatre Properties owned, managed or operated by the Partnership, (x) Loeks waives any right to challenge, and Star waives

any right to defend, Star’s Settlement Policies on the basis of Settlement Policies followed by Star or its Affiliates in any other geographic area or market and (y) except as set forth in Section 17.2(c) hereof Star and its Affiliates shall have no obligation to provide any Partner or the Partnership, or to any of their accountants or representatives, access to information (including access to work papers, books and accounts, memoranda and other documentation) regarding procedures followed or results achieved by Star or any of its Affiliates with respect to film settlements applicable to any motion picture theatres other than the Theatre Properties owned, operated or managed by Star or any of its Affiliates, whether such procedures are completed or ongoing and Loeks waives any and all rights to request or receive such information. Except as specifically provided in Sections 17.2(a), (b) and (c) above, Loeks confirms that Star has made no representation or covenant to it as to its Settlement Policies or Booking Management Standards with respect to any theatres which are owned, managed or operated by Star or its Affiliates or which are to be owned, managed or operated by the Partnership.

(d) If the Loeks Partner hereunder shall become the Booking Agent as provided herein, the provisions of the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 17.5 shall apply to the Loeks Partner as the Booking Agent and all references to Loeks in the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 17.5 shall mean Star.

17.6. Compensation. As its sole compensation for the performance of its obligations under this Partnership Agreement, the Partnership shall pay to the Booking Agent an annual fee equal to $100,000. In addition, the Booking Agent shall be reimbursed by the Partnership for all costs and expenses incurred by the Booking Agent in connection with the performance of its duties under this Agreement. The costs and expenses for which the Booking Agent shall be reimbursed by the Partnership shall include, but not be limited to, the following:

(a) Salaries, wages, benefits, overhead and administrative expenses of the Booking Agent or of any management company retained by the Booking Agent reasonably allocable to services rendered to or for the benefit of the Partnership; and

(b) Amounts paid under contracts entered into for the benefit of the Partnership.

In the event that a person whose services are charged to the Partnership does not provide services exclusively for the Partnership, the Star Partner shall provide to the Loeks Partner, within 45 days after the end of each fiscal year, a statement of the allocation of such person’s compensation between the Partnership and others for which such person is providing services. In all events, such allocation shall be fair and reasonable under the circumstances.

On the first day of each month, the Partnership shall advance to the Booking Agent the amount budgeted for the costs and expenses described in this Section 17.6 for such month. At the end of each fiscal year, the accrued costs and expenses incurred by the Booking Agent shall be determined and (i) any advances received by the Booking Agent in excess of the amount necessary to pay all accrued costs and expenses for such fiscal year shall be returned by the Booking Agent to the Partnership and (ii) any costs and expenses incurred by the Booking Agent in excess of any advances received by the Booking Agent shall be reimbursed by the Partnership.

17.7. Booking for Jack Loeks Theatres. The Booking Agent shall, at the election of Jack Loeks Theatres, Inc., at any time and from time to time during the term of the Partnership, provide Booking Management Activities for Jack Loeks Theatres, Inc., at a fee that is reasonable and customary for theatre properties in its geographic area and in accordance with the Booking Management Standards set forth in this Article 17; provided, however, that the Booking Agent shall not be required to perform such activities for any theatre property in competition with a Theatre Property or with any other theatre property owned, operated or managed, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, by CPE or its Affiliates or for which CPE or its Affiliates provide booking or settlement services; and provided further, that the Booking Agent shall not be required to provide any services to Jack Loeks Theatres, Inc., in circumstances which, based upon an opinion of its counsel, the Booking Agent reasonably believes constitutes a violation of law or any judgment or decree by which it is bound; and provided further, that Jack Loeks Theatres, Inc. agrees in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Booking Agent to indemnify the Booking Agent for all claims, costs and expenses incurred by the Booking Agent in connection with such Booking Management Activities to the extent related to the actual or alleged acts or omissions of Jack Loeks Theatres, Inc. or its affiliates, agents, employees, officers or representatives.

17.8. Indemnification. The Partnership shall indemnify and hold harmless the Booking Agent and its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors and agents from and against all claims, losses, liabilities, damages (including repairs and replacement costs), fines, penalties, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, interest which may be imposed in connection therewith, expenses of investigation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and other experts, as the case may be) (“Claims”) sustained or incurred by the Booking Agent in connection with the performance of its duties under this Agreement, except in the case, of Claims resulting solely from gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Star Partner or any of its Affiliates.

(b) If (i) James or Barrie Loeks notifies the Star Partner of his or her unwillingness to provide the level of personal services required in Section 16.5 (the “Loss of Services Notice”), or (ii) James Loeks or Barrie Loeks fail to provide such level of personal services for a period of at least 60 consecutive days for reasons other than reasonable vacations, death or disability (the “Loss of Services Period”) following written notice from the Star Partner that such level of personal service is not being provided, the Star Partner shall have the right, exercisable by giving notice (the “Exercise Notice”) to the Loeks Partner within 180 days after the earliest of the date of receipt of the Loss of Services Notice or the expiration of the Loss of Services Period, provided that such level of personal services shall not have resumed prior to the date of such Exercise Notice, either to acquire the Partnership Interest (the “Subject Interest”) of the Loeks Partner or, in the alternative, to assume the duties and responsibilities, and be entitled to the rights, of the Operating Agent. The closing (the “Loss of Services Closing”) of the purchase and sale of the Subject Interest shall occur at the principal office of the Star Partner at 12 noon (New York time) on the 25th business day after delivery of the Exercise Notice. At the Loss of Services Closing, the Loeks Partner shall deliver instruments of transfer, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Star Partner and its counsel, evidencing the transfer of the Subject Interest free and clear of all liens, claims, rights of third-parties and other encumbrances, against delivery by the Star Partner of a certified check in the aggregate amount (the “Loss of Service Exercise Price”) equal to (a) 2-1/2 times the Average Annual Cash Flow plus (b) in the case of any Theatre Property which as of the Applicable Date has been in operation for less than 12 months (a “Start-up Theatre Property”), 50% of the cost basis before depreciation or amortization (as reflected in the books and records of the Partnership) (the “Cost Basis”) of the assets of such Start-up Theatre Property plus (c) 50% of Net Partnership Assets minus (d) 50% of Net Partnership Liabilities. The Applicable Date for such purpose shall be the end of the month immediately preceding the date of the Exercise Notice.

If a Partner is required pursuant to this Agreement to deliver a Partnership interest to the other Partner free and clear of Encumbrances, and fails or is unable to do so, the other Partner may, at its option, apply a portion of the purchase price for such Partnership interest to reduce, pay off or obtain the release of such Encumbrance.

18.2. Death or Disability. (a) In the event that either Barrie Loeks or James Loeks dies or is Permanently Disabled (as defined below), the survivor or the non-disabled party, as the case may be, shall, within 180 days of such event, appoint a replacement, who shall be reasonably acceptable to the Star Partner, to assume the duties of the deceased or disabled party. For purposes of this Agreement, James Loeks or Barrie Loeks shall be deemed to be Permanently Disabled if he or she has been unable to perform his or her duties under this Agreement for a period of 180 days in any period of 52 consecutive weeks.

(b) The Loeks Partner shall promptly give notice (the “Disability Notice”) to the Star Partner of the death or Permanent Disability of Barrie Loeks or James Loeks, stating the date upon which such event occurred (the “Disability Date”). Upon the failure of the Loeks Partner to appoint a replacement reasonably acceptable to the Star Partner within 180 days after the Disability Date or if both Barrie Loeks and James Loeks die or are Permanently Disabled, the Star Partner shall have the right, exercisable by giving notice (the “Disability Exercise Notice”) to the Loeks Partner within 45 days after the expiration of such 180-day period or the death or Permanent Disability of both Barrie Loeks and James Loeks, either (at the option of the Star Partner) to acquire the Partnership Interest (the “Subject Interest”) of the Loeks Partner or to assume the duties and responsibilities, and be entitled to the rights, of the Operating Agent. The closing (the “Disability Closing”) of the purchase and sale of the Subject Interest shall occur at the principal office of the Star Partner at 12 noon (New York time) on the 25th business day after delivery of the Disability Exercise Notice. At the Disability Closing, the Loeks Partner shall deliver instruments of transfer, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Star Partner and its counsel, evidencing the transfer of the Subject Interest free and clear of all liens, claims, rights of third-parties and other encumbrances, against delivery by the Star Partner of a certified check in the aggregate amount (the “Disability Exercise Price”) equal to (a) 3-1/2 times the Average Annual Cash Flow plus (b) in the case of any Start-up Theatre Property, 50% of the Cost Basis of the assets of such Start-up Theatre Property plus (c) 50% of Net Partnership Liabilities minus (d) 50% of Net Partnership Liabilities. The Applicable Date for such purpose shall be the end of the month immediately preceding the date of the Disability Exercise Notice.

ARTICLE 19

ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS

19.1. Non-Competition. (a)(1) It is the intention of the parties, if appropriate opportunities become available, to develop and/or seek to acquire new Theatre Properties within the Territory for the benefit of the Partnership. Accordingly, the parties intend that neither Partner shall negotiate for the acquisition, directly or indirectly of any interest of any motion picture theatre in the Territory without prior discussion with the other Partner.

(2) From and after the date hereof, no Partner or any of its Affiliates shall, directly or indirectly, individually or as part of a group, own, lease, operate, rent, build, acquire an economic interest in, or provide services to, any motion picture theatre (other than the Theatre Properties) in the Territory, or enter into a definitive agreement to do any of the foregoing, or acquire or maintain an economic interest in any entity which engages in any of the foregoing activities (each, a “Restricted Investment”), unless such Partner or Affiliate (an “Investing Partner”) shall, in accordance with the following procedures, first give the Partnership the opportunity to acquire such Restricted Investment on the same terms and conditions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following shall not constitute “Restricted Investments”: (A) the acquisition of “beneficial ownership” (as defined in the Exchange Act) by any Partner and its Affiliates of less than 5% of any class of equity securities (whether or not entitling the holder to vote generally in the election of directors) of any corporation having any class of securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act or which is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, or voting securities of any such corporation constituting up to 5% of the voting power of such corporation, which corporation owns, leases, operates, rents or provides services to, motion picture theatres located in the Territory; (B) the acquisition by a Partner or its Affiliates of an Interest in an entity which owns, operates, leases or manages at least 50 screens, not more than 25% of which are located within the Territory if the Partner or its Affiliate within six months following such acquisition either causes such entity to dispose of such interest in such screens within the Territory or causes such entity to make an “Offer Notice” in accordance with Section 19.1(a)(3) below with respect to the theatres located in the Territory; (C) the acquisition of any capital stock of or other interest in Jack Loeks Theatres, Inc. by Barrie Loeks or James Loeks, or the provision by any of the the parties to Jack Loeks Theatres, Inc. of the services contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, Sections 16.5 and 17.7 hereof and (D) the making of any investment or acquisition of any interest in or to a Theatre Property by an Affiliate of CPE which is not directly or indirectly controlled by CPE or managed by any persons employed by CPE or any of its Subsidiaries, provided, that following such acquisition, no management or booking services shall be provided to any of the theatre properties involved in such acquisition by CPE or any of its Affiliates which is directly or indirectly controlled by CPE or managed by any persons employed by CPE or any of its Subsidiaries.

(3) An Investing Partner shall deliver written notice (an “Offer Notice”) of a proposed Restricted Investment to the other Partner (the “Unaffiliated Partner”) as promptly as practicable after (a) in the case of a non-Multi-Territory Acquisition, the earlier to occur of (w) the delivery of a term sheet by or to the Investing Partner, (x) the execution of a letter of intent or agreement in principle, (y) the negotiation of a proposed form of definitive agreement, or (b) in the case of a Multi-Territory Acquisition, the date of the actual investment (or within six months thereafter in the case of an Offer Notice delivered pursuant to clause (B) of Section 19(a)(2) above), setting forth the terms of the proposed Restricted Investment. The Offer Notice shall specify, in reasonable detail, the terms and conditions of the proposed Restricted Investment and include copies of any term sheet, letter of intent or proposed form of agreement relating to the proposed Restricted Investment. If an Offer Notice shall be given, the Partnership shall have the right, exercisable by the Unaffiliated Partner alone by giving notice (an “Acceptance Notice”) to the Investing Partner within 45 days after the date on which such Unaffiliated Partner shall have first received the Offer Notice, to acquire the Restricted Investment upon the same terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Notice, the parties agreeing that in the event a proposed Restricted Investment is to be made as part of a transaction involving the acquisition (a “Multi-Territory Acquisition”) of an economic interest in assets in addition to any motion picture theatre located in the Territory, the Investing Partner shall cause the assets which comprise the Restricted Investment to be offered to be separately transferred to the Partnership at a cash purchase price equal to a fair allocation of the aggregate consideration for all assets which are a part of such transaction. If the seller in such Multi-Territory Acquisition will not make such an offer, and the Restricted Investment is acquired by the Investing Partner, the Investing Partner shall deliver an Offer Notice to the Unaffiliated Partner relating to the assets which comprise the Restricted Investment as provided in this Agreement. If the Unaffiliated Partner shall deliver on behalf of the Partnership an Acceptance Notice, the Partners shall use reasonable efforts to negotiate promptly a definitive agreement providing for the acquisition by the Partnership of the Restricted Investment and, upon the successful completion of such negotiations, the Partnership shall sign such agreement. Each of the Partners shall cooperate with the other and use its best efforts

to complete the negotiations and execute such agreement. If an Acceptance Notice is given, the funds necessary to make such Restricted Investment shall be provided from: (w) first, the Partnership Note; (x) second, when funds available from the Partnership Note have been completely expended, a Capital Expenditure Loan; (y) third, when all of the Capital Expenditure Loans have been completely expended, unless the Partners otherwise agree, borrowings from a reputable financial institution by the Partnership on the most favorable commercial terms available at the time, provided that the debt/equity ratio of the Partnership immediately following any such borrowing shall not exceed 1:1; (z) fourth, after the funds listed in (w), (x) and (y) above have been completely expended, each Partner shall at the Closing of such transaction contribute to the capital of the Partnership one-half of the remaining funds needed to fund the acquisition of the Restricted Investment and provide necessary working capital, provided that the Loeks Partner shall be entitled to fund any such capital contribution by pledging its interest in the Partnership and its interest in the Partnership assets in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.2.

(4) If no Acceptance Notice shall have been delivered within 45 days after the date on which the Offer Notice shall have been delivered, or if the Unaffiliated Partner shall not have, on behalf of the Partnership, within 90 days after the date on which the Acceptance Notice shall have been delivered, executed a definitive agreement providing for the acquisition by the Partnership of the Restricted Investment, the Investing Partner may, no later than 30 days after the end of the later of such 45-day or 90-day period, sign a definitive agreement providing for the consummation of such Restricted Investment on terms and conditions no more favorable to the Investing Partner than as set forth in the Offer Notice. If the Investing Partner shall not execute such definitive agreement within such period and thereafter proceed to acquire the Restricted Investment pursuant to such definitive agreement, the provisions of this Section 19.1 shall again apply to such Restricted Investment, and no acquisition of a Restricted Investment shall be made otherwise than in accordance with the terms of this Section 19.1.

(5) In the event that an Investing Partner acquires a Restricted Investment in accordance with the terms of this Section 19.1, the Investing Partner shall have the right, exercisable within 90 days of the date of acquisition, to cause the Partnership, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to manage, operate, book, and settle each motion picture theatre which is the subject of the Restricted Investment as if it were a Theatre Property, and the Partners hereby agree (subject to Section 19.1(b) below) that each such motion picture theatre shall be deemed, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to be a Theatre Property for purposes of determining the scope of the duties and powers of the Booking Agent and Operating Agent hereunder. The Investing Partner shall be entitled to cancel such management arrangements at any time on 180 days’ notice and upon payment of fees accrued to the Partnership to the date of cancellation. As compensation for such operating and booking services, the Investing Partner shall cause to be paid to the Partnership for each year (or portion thereof) that each such theatre is managed by the Partnership an annual fee which shall be 6% of the gross revenue attributable to such theatre in each year (or portion thereof) during which such theatre is so operated and booked by the Partnership.

(b) The Booking Agent, in booking any motion picture theatre which is the subject of the Restricted Investment and settling films exhibited thereat pursuant to Section 19.1(a) above, (i) shall take into account as a priority the best interests of the Theatre Properties which are not Restricted Investments and (ii) shall not book any such theatre, or settle any films exhibited at such theatre, in a manner which adversely affects the Partnership.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 19.1 to the contrary, neither Partner may make or acquire or allow any of its Affiliates to make or acquire a Restricted Investment involving any motion picture theatre within a three mile radius of any Theatre Property without the prior written consent of the other Partner.

19.2. Lease Renewals. (a) The Operating Agent shall have primary responsibility for conducting negotiations relating to the renewal of Leases, unless the landlord or sub-landlord under any Lease shall be the Loeks Partner or any Affiliate thereof, or Jack Loeks Theatres, Inc. or an Affiliate of Jack Loeks Theatres, Inc. in which event the Star Partner shall have primary responsibility for conducting negotiations relating to such Lease. The Partner which shall have primary responsibility for conducting negotiations relating to the renewal of any Lease shall keep the other Partner informed of the progress of such negotiations and the proposed terms of renewal of such Lease and the other Partner may attend and participate in such negotiations.

(b) The renewal of any Lease shall require the unanimous consent of both Partners. On or before the fifteenth day (the “Communication Date”) prior to the earlier of (x) the expiration of any Lease which does not grant to the Partnership a renewal option or (y) the last day for the Partnership to give notice of its election to renew any Lease in accordance with its terms (either of such days referred to as the “Expiration Date”), the Partner which shall have primary responsibility for conducting negotiations relating to the renewal of such Lease, after taking into account the status of negotiations with the landlord immediately prior to the Communication Date, shall inform the other Partner of

the proposed terms of renewal of such Lease which are acceptable to the lessor of the Property. If neither Partner shall object to such proposed terms by the fifth day (the “Objection Date”) after the Communication Date, the responsible Partner shall use its best efforts to complete its negotiations and renew the Lease on terms which are at least as favorable to the Partnership as described by such responsible Partner on the Communication Date.

(c) In the event that on or prior to the Objection Date either Partner shall object to the proposed terms of renewal of any Lease (either such Partner referred to as the “Objecting Partner”), at the request of the other Partner (the “Non-Objecting Partner”), the Partnership shall assign to the Non-Objecting Partner, for no consideration, all of the Partnership’s right, title and interest in and to such Lease, including any renewal rights, and shall sell to the Non-Objecting Partner, at their fair market value as jointly determined by both Partners in good faith, the Partnership’s interest in all tangible property, fixtures and improvements located in the Theatre Property which is subject to such Lease, together with the business, if any, as a going concern of such Theatre Property, concurrently with the later of the renewal of such Lease (the “Renewed Lease”) or the expiration of the term of such lease prior to its renewal. If the Partners are unable to agree on the fair market value of such tangible property, fixtures and improvements, such fair market value shall be determined by an independent appraiser selected by both Partners or, if they are unable to agree, the Accountant. The Renewed Lease shall be on terms not materially more favorable to the Non-Objecting Partner than the terms rejected by the Objecting Partner. The Non-Objecting Partner shall be liable for and shall pay all transfer, sales, use, stamp, withholding, gains, and other Taxes in connection with such transfer, and all costs of recording instruments effecting such transfer and related documents, including reasonable attorneys’ fees of the Partnership.

(d) The Non-Objecting Partner shall have the right, exercisable within 10 days after the date of renewal of the Renewed Lease, to cause the Partnership to manage and book the Theatre Property which is the subject of such Renewed Lease on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 19.1(a)(5) hereof but subject to the provisions of Section 19.1(b) as if such Theatre Property were a Restricted Investment.

(e) If the renewal or transfer of any lease to the Non-Objecting Partner requires the consent or approval of a landlord, mortgagee or other Person which is not obtained, both Partners will use their best efforts to enter into a management contract or other arrangement that transfers to the Non-Objecting Partner the rights and obligations it would have obtained or incurred had it succeeded to such lease as tenant or sub-tenant, provided the Partnership shall be adequately indemnified by the Non-Objecting Partner, on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Objecting Partner, against all losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses in respect of or relating to such management contract or other arrangement.

19.3. Tax Year; Fiscal Year. If permission is granted by the Internal Revenue Service, the Partnership’s Taxable year shall be the period in each year beginning on March 1 and ending on February 28 or 29, or such year as shall be selected from time to time jointly by the Partners consistent with applicable law, except that the initial Taxable year of the Partnership shall be the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on February 28, 1989. The Partnership shall promptly apply to the Internal Revenue Service for special permission to use such Taxable year provided, that if such permission is not granted, the Partnership’s Taxable year shall be the period in each year beginning on January 1 and ending on December 31. The Partnership’s fiscal year shall be the period in each year beginning on March 1 and ending on February 28 or 29, or such year as shall be selected from time to time jointly by the Partners consistent with applicable law, except that the initial fiscal year shall be the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on February 28, 1989.

19.4. Accountant. The books and records of the Partnership shall be audited by a reputable firm of independent certified public accountants selected by both Partners (the “Accountant”). The initial Accountant shall be Ernst & Whinney. The Partnership shall pay the fees and expenses of the Accountant.

19.5. Transfer Taxes. In the event of any sale of a Partnership Interest to a Partner pursuant to Section 18.1, 18.2 or 18.3, the selling Partner shall be liable for and shall pay all transfer, sales, use, stamp, withholding and other Taxes.

ARTICLE 20

APPLICATION OF FUNDS

20.1. Operating Accounts. Except as otherwise agreed by both Partners, the Operating Agent shall cause the Partnership to open and maintain such account or accounts (collectively, “Operating Accounts”) as the Operating Agent shall deem necessary or appropriate in a banking institution or institutions in Michigan jointly designated from time to time by both the Partners in the Partnership’s name. Duly authorized representatives of each of the Operating Agent and the Booking Agent, without the approval of the duly authorized representatives of the other, shall be entitled to make deposits. Withdrawals from any Operating Account shall only require the approval of the Operating Agent; provided, however, that the Operating Agent shall obtain the approval of an authorized representative of the Booking Agent before making any

withdrawal that is not covered by the Approved Budgets. The Operating Agent shall cause the Partnership to deposit in the Operating Accounts as promptly as practicable all receipts and revenues received from the sale of admissions tickets, concession items or otherwise and all funds collected by the Partnership or by the Operating Agent on behalf of the Partnership under this Agreement and shall not commingle such revenues or funds with the revenues or funds of the Operating Agent, any of its affiliates or others. All revenues and funds deposited in the Operating Accounts shall be and remain the Partnership’s property. Each of the Operating Agent and Booking Agent agrees that, in performing its duties and exercising its powers hereunder as Operating Agent or Booking Agent, as the case may be, it is acting as agent for the Partnership; accordingly, all funds, property or other benefits which it may receive in performing such duties or exercising such powers shall be held by it as agent for the benefit of, and in trust for, the Partnership.

20.2. Payment of Expenses. If at any time the funds in the Operating Accounts are insufficient to pay the expenses of the Partnership, such funds shall be disbursed in the following order of priority:

(a) First, to the payment of payroll expenses (including FICA and income Tax withholding) for employees of the Partnership or the Operating Agent on behalf of the Partnership;

(b) Next, to the payment of debt service under any mortgages affecting any Theatre Property which it is the obligation of the Partnership to pay;

(d) Next, to the payment of rent and other charges under any lease;

(e) Next, to the payment of utilities;

(f) Next, to the payment of insurance premiums;

(g) Next, to the payment of Film Settlements;

(h) Next, to the payment of direct operating expenses or liabilities of the Partnership;

(i) Next, to the payment of loans from any Partner including any Capital Expenditure Loans outstanding from Star or its Affiliates; and

(j) Next, to the payment of indirect operating expenses or liabilities of the Partnership including fees of the Operating Agent and the Booking Agent.

If after applying all funds in the Operating Accounts in the priority required by the previous sentence the funds in the Operating Accounts are insufficient to pay all the expenses, referred to in any of clauses (a) through (j) above, then, after paying in full all the expenses referred to in any clause having higher priority, the Operating Agent shall apply any remaining funds in the Operating Accounts to the payment of the expenses referred to in any such clause as jointly determined by the Partners in good faith.

If the Operating Agent shall fail to apply the funds in the Operating Accounts as required by this Agreement, the Booking Agent shall be entitled to apply such funds as so required.

20.3. Budgets.

(a) Capital Budgets. The Operating Agent shall prepare a pro forma capital budget for the Partnership as promptly as practicable after the date hereof for the first Operating Year and thereafter at least thirty days prior to the beginning of each subsequent Operating Year. Each pro forma capital budget must be jointly approved by both Partners and the budget so approved shall be deemed to be an “Approved Capital Budget” for the period covered by such budget.

(b) Annual Operating Budgets. The Partners shall jointly approve an annual operating budget for the Partnership as promptly as practicable after the date hereof for the first Operating Year and thereafter at least thirty days prior to the beginning of each subsequent Operating Year. The Partners shall jointly agree on a range of projected gross box office receipts to be utilized in formulating the operating budget. Based on the agreed upon range of projected gross box office receipts, (i) the Booking Agent shall prepare a pro forma budget for all costs of film rental and of booking film, including all charges payable to the Booking Agent pursuant to this Agreement, and (ii) the Operating Agent shall

prepare a pro forma budget for all costs pertaining to the operation and maintenance of each Theatre Property. These budgets shall be combined in a pro forma operating budget. The individual line items in the pro forma operating budget may be expressed as a range of dollar amounts, a fixed percentage of box office sales and/or concession sales, or a range of such percentages.

Unless both Partners jointly agree otherwise, each such pro forma operating budget shall be substantially in the same form as the Approved Budget in effect for the prior Operating Year (exclusive of extraordinary items in the Approved Budget for the prior Operating Year) and shall set forth costs on an annual basis for each Theatre Property. Each pro forma operating budget must be jointly approved by both Partners. Any pro forma operating budget so approved shall be deemed to be an “Approved Operating Budget” - for the period covered by such budget. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Approved Operating Budget shall provide for the expenditure, at the Operating Agent’s discretion, of up to 1% of total revenues of all Partnership Theatre Properties in the preceding year for maintenance, repairs, replacement and refurbishment of the Theatre Properties (the “Guaranteed Repair and Replacement Fund”). The Star Partner shall not be entitled to disapprove the Guaranteed Repair and Replacement Fund.

(c) Dispute Resolution. In the event any item set forth in a pro forma operating budget (other than the Guaranteed Repair and Replacement Fund) is not approved (the “Disputed Item”), the Partners shall negotiate in good faith to reach joint approval on the Disputed Item. In the event the Partners are unable to negotiate an Approved Operating Budget, each Partner shall independently propose the amount to be budgeted for each Disputed Item which is a regularly occurring expense that was included in the prior year’s Approved Operating Budget and which will not be materially affected by a change in the number of theatre screens or locations since the preparation of the prior year’s Approved Operating Budget. If each of the amounts of the Disputed Item proposed by the Operating Agent and the Booking Agent is greater than 95% of the amount of the Disputed Item for the immediately preceding Operating Year, the amount of the Disputed Item set forth in the Approved Operating Budget shall be the lower of the amounts proposed by the Operating Agent and the Booking Agent. If each of the amounts of the Disputed Item proposed by the Operating Agent and the Booking Agent is lower than 95% of the amount of the Disputed Item for the immediately preceding Operating Year, the amount of the Disputed Item set forth in the Approved Operating Budget shall be the greater of the amounts proposed by the Operating Agent and the Booking Agent. If only one of the amounts of the Disputed Item proposed by the Operating Agent and the Booking Agent is less than or equal to 95% of the amount of the Disputed Item for the immediately preceding Operating Year, the amount of the Disputed Item set forth in the Approved Operating Budget shall be 95% of the amount of the Disputed Item for the immediately preceding year.

In the event a Disputed Item is materially affected by a change in the number of theatre screens or locations since the preparation of the prior year’s Approved Budget, the above dispute resolution formula shall apply, provided, however, that in applying the formula the amount of the Disputed Item for the immediately preceding Operating Year shall be adjusted pro rata for the number of theatre screens to be operated by the Partnership during the next Operating Year.

(d) Limitations of Approved Budgets. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, the Operating Agent shall not incur or be required to incur on behalf of the Partnership any capital expenditures during any period except within the limitations established by and in accordance with the Approved Capital Budget for such period. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, the Operating Agent shall not incur or be required to incur on behalf of the Partnership any costs or expenses in connection with the operation or maintenance of the Theatre Properties during any Operating Year except within the limitations established by and in accordance with the Approved Operating Budget for such Operating Year.

(e) Adjustment of Approved Budgets. In the event that there is reason to believe that actual costs will exceed the budgeted amounts for any major expense category, the Operating Agent, in the case of capital or operating expenses, or the Booking Agent, in the case of film rental and booking expenses, shall promptly notify the other Partner in writing of the projected amount by which actual costs are reasonably expected to exceed the budget and the particular reasons therefor. Promptly after delivery and receipt of such notice, the Partners shall negotiate in good faith to make any necessary adjustment to the Approved Budget. Any such adjustments jointly approved by the Partners shall automatically be incorporated in and become a part of the Approved Budget for all purposes hereunder.

ARTICLE 21

TRANSFER OF PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS

21.1. Prohibited Transfers. Except in accordance with, and as permitted by, Section 7.1, 7.2, 18.1, 18.2, 21.2, 21.3 or 21,4, a Partner may not, directly or indirectly, sell, assign, transfer, mortgage, pledge or collaterally assign, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise dispose of (collectively, “Transfer”), all or any part of its Partnership Interest, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the other Partner. For purposes of this Agreement, except as specified herein, any voluntary or involuntary change in the ownership or control of any of the Persons which, directly or indirectly, own a controlling interest in a Partner or is a Partner (an “Upper Tier Transfer”), including, without limitation, the Transfer by Barrie Loeks or James Loeks of any shares of capital stock or other equity or partnership interest (or of any Subsidiary, partnership or other entity which owns any interest in the Loeks Partner), shall be deemed a Transfer of a Partnership Interest except that any change in the ownership of the outstanding capital stock of CPE (or any successor thereto) or in the ownership of substantially all of its assets (other than its Partnership Interest or its stock in Star, which shall only be transferred in accordance with Section 21.4 below) shall not be deemed to be a Transfer.

21.2. Permitted Transfers. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 21.1, but subject to the provisions of Sections 21.6, 21.7 and 21.8, a Partner may, without the consent of the other Partner, Transfer all (but not less than all) of its Partnership Interest to any of the following persons: (i) if such Transfer is not an Upper Tier Transfer, to any wholly owned direct or indirect Subsidiary of CPE or Barrie and James Loeks, or (ii) if such Transfer is an Upper Tier Transfer involving solely the direct transfer of all (but not less than all) of the capital stock of the Partner, to any wholly owned direct or indirect Subsidiary of CPE or James Loeks and Barrie Loeks. In addition, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 21.1, James Loeks and Barrie Loeks may, without the consent of the Star Partner, transfer all or any portion of their interest in the Loeks Partner to one or more trusts which have as their beneficiaries only James Loeks, Barrie Loeks, and their heirs and with respect to which the power to direct the voting of such interests is reserved to James Loeks and/or Barrie Loeks for their lives.

21.3. Loeks Option to Sell. (a) At any time after 10 years from the date hereof, the Loeks Partner shall have the option to sell, upon 20 business days notice (the “Sale Notice”), its Partnership Interest (the “Subject Interest”) to the Star Partner.

At the Sale Closing, the Loeks Partner shall deliver instruments of transfer, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Star Partner and its counsel, evidencing the transfer of the Subject Interest free and clear of all liens, claims, rights of third-parties and other encumbrances, against delivery by the Star Partner of a certified check in the aggregate amount (the “Sale Price”) equal to (a) 3 times the Average Annual Cash Flow plus (b) in the case of any Start-up Theatre Property, 50% of the Cost Basis of the assets of such Start-up Theatre Property plus (c) 50% of Net Partnership Assets minus (d) 50% of Net Partnership Liabilities. The Applicable Date for such purpose shall be the end of the month immediately preceding the date of the Sale Notice.

(b) If, at any time after 10 years from the date hereof, the Loeks Partner receives a bona fide cash offer, in writing, from a responsible third party (the “Third Party Offeror”) which the Loeks Partner wishes to accept for the purchase of the assets of all of the Theatre Properties or all of the Partnership Interests of Loeks and Star, free of all claims, liens, and encumbrances, at a purchase price (the “Bona Fide Offer Price”) in excess of twice the amount of the Sale Price specified in Section 21.3(a) hereof, it shall so notify the Star Partner, setting forth in such notice (the “Third Party Offer Notice”), the name of the Third Party Offeror, a description of its business, ownership and financial status, the Bona Fide Offer Price and all other terms and conditions of the proposed transaction. The Star Partner shall, within 20 days of receipt of the Third Party Offer Notice, notify the Loeks Partner (the “Third Party Exercise Notice”) that it will exercise its option to either (i) purchase the Partnership Interest of the Loeks Partner at a proportion of the Bona Fide Offer Price equal to the Loeks Partner’s Percentage Interest in the Partnership and in accordance with the other terms and conditions set forth in the Third Party Offer Notice or (ii) sell all of the assets of all of the Theatre Properties or all of the Partnership Interests of Loeks and Star to the Third Party Offeror at the Bona Fide Offer Price and on the same terms and conditions as the Bona Fide Offer.

If, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 21.1, any Person acquires all or any part of a Partnership Interest or a direct or indirect ownership or controlling interest in a Partner in violation of this Article 21 by operation of law or judicial proceeding, the holder(s) of the affected interest shall have no right, directly or indirectly, to take action under this Agreement, and the Partner whose interest was affected shall be deemed to be in default under Article 23.

Any party making a claim for indemnification hereunder (an “Indemnitee”) shall notify the indemnifying party (an “Indemnitor”) of the claim in writing, describing the claim, the amount thereof, and the basis therefor, promptly after the Indemnitee learns of the existence of the claim, provided that the failure to so notify an Indemnitor shall not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations hereunder except to the extent such failure shall have harmed the Indemnitor. The Indemnitor shall respond to each such claim within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice, provided that the failure to so respond within such time period shall not constitute an admission of liability for the claim or claims to which the notice related. Unless necessary to minimize or mitigate continuing losses, no action shall be taken pursuant to the provisions of the Agreement or otherwise by the Indemnitee until the later of (x) the expiration of the 30-day response period or (y) 30 days following the receipt of a response within such 30-day period by the Indemnitee requesting an opportunity to cure the matter giving rise to indemnification (and, in such event, the amount of such claim for indemnification shall be reduced to the extent so cured). No response from the Indemnitor shall preclude the Indemnitee from taking such action under this Agreement or otherwise to obtain such indemnification as the Indemnitee shall be entitled, except to the extent a right to cure is requested and the cure has been performed within the 30-day cure period by or on behalf of the Indemnitor; in case any legal or governmental proceeding is brought against any Indemnitee, the Indemnitor shall be entitled to participate in (and at the option of the Indemnitor shall assume) the defense thereof, by written notice to the Indemnitee within 30 days after receipt of notice of the claim for Indemnification, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee, and at the Indemnitor’s own expense; if the Indemnitor shall assume the defense of any such claim as provided above, it shall not settle the same except on terms reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee. An Indemnitee shall not settle any Indemnified claim for which, and to the extent, it will seek indemnification from Indemnitors hereunder, without the consent of the Indemnitor, which shall not unreasonably be withheld; Indemnified expenses include the reasonable legal fees and expenses of the Indemnitee except to the extent that such fees and expenses are incurred after the date and during the time that the Indemnitor has assumed the defense of any such claim in accordance with the provisions of this Section. However, notwithstanding the

assumption by an Indemnitor of the defense of any claim at the request of an Indemnitee as provided in this Section, the Indemnitee shall be permitted to join in such defense and to employ counsel at its own expense, except that the Indemnitor shall bear the reasonable fees and disbursements of separate counsel of the Indemnitee if (a) in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnitee, the engagement of the Indemnitor’s counsel would represent a conflict of interest or (b) the Indemnitor shall fail vigorously to prosecute or defend, as the case may be, such claim.

25.4. Limitation on Claims. No claim for indemnification shall be made based on any fact or circumstance existing at the Closing nor for breach of any representation or warranty contained in Exhibit B or Exhibit C hereto made at the Closing unless asserted in writing within one year after the Closing, except that the time period in which to make claims for Taxes shall extend until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. The indemnification provisions of this Article 25 relate only to the actions of the Partners in connection with the formation of the Partnership and the representations, warranties and covenants of the Partners in their individual capacities with respect to the Contributed Assets. The obligations and responsibilities of the Partners as partners in this Partnership and as Operating Agent and Booking Agent, respectively, shall be as provided in this Agreement and by law.
