THE INFORMATION IN THIS PROSPECTUS IS NOT COMPLETE AND MAY BE CHANGED. WE MAY
NOT EXCHANGE THESE SECURITIES UNTIL THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FILED WITH THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION IS EFFECTIVE. THIS PROSPECTUS IS NOT AN OFFER
TO SELL THESE NOTES AND IT IS NOT SOLICITING AN OFFER TO BUY THESE NOTES IN ANY

                 SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED FEBRUARY 27, 2004

PROSPECTUS

                                  (IMAX LOGO)

         OFFER TO EXCHANGE ALL OUTSTANDING 9 5/8% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2010
                         ISSUED ON DECEMBER 4, 2003 FOR
                UP TO $160,000,000 AGGREGATE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF
                    REGISTERED 9 5/8% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2010

THE OLD NOTES:

     $160,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 9 5/8% Senior Notes due December
1, 2010, referred to in this prospectus as the old notes, were originally issued
and sold by IMAX Corporation on December 4, 2003 in a transaction that was
exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
resold to qualified institutional buyers in compliance with Rule 144A.

THE NEW NOTES:

     The terms of the new notes, referred to in this prospectus as the notes,
are substantially identical to the terms of the old notes, and evidence the same
indebtedness as the old notes, except that the notes will be registered under
the Securities Act, will not contain restrictions on transfer or provisions
relating to special interest under circumstances related to the timing of the
exchange offer, will bear a different CUSIP number from the old notes and will
not entitle their holders to registration rights.

     SEE "RISK FACTORS" BEGINNING ON PAGE 14 FOR A DISCUSSION OF CERTAIN RISKS
THAT YOU SHOULD CONSIDER IN CONNECTION WITH TENDERING YOUR OLD NOTES IN THE
EXCHANGE OFFER.

EXCHANGE OFFER:

     Our offer to exchange old notes for notes will be open until 5:00 p.m., New
York City time, on           , 2004, unless we extend the offer.

     Notes will be issued in exchange for an equal principal amount of
outstanding old notes accepted in the exchange offer. The exchange offer is not
conditioned upon any minimum principal amount of old notes being tendered for
exchange. However, the obligation to accept old notes for exchange pursuant to
the exchange offer is subject to certain customary conditions set forth herein.
See "The Exchange Offer -- Conditions."

     No public market currently exists for the notes and we do not intend to
apply for their listing on any securities exchange or to arrange for them to be
quoted on any quotation system.

     Each broker-dealer that receives notes for its own account pursuant to the
exchange offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection
with any resale of such notes. This prospectus, as it may be amended or
supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection
with resales of notes received in exchange for old notes where the old notes
were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading
activities. We have agreed that, for a period of 180 days after the expiration
date of the exchange offer, we will make this prospectus, as amended or
supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such
resale. See "Plan of Distribution."

                             ---------------------

     NEITHER THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES

     The following summary highlights selected information contained elsewhere
in, or incorporated by reference into, this prospectus and does not contain all
of the information that you should consider before exchanging your old notes for
the notes. You should read this summary together with the more detailed
information that is contained in, or incorporated by reference into, this
prospectus, including the risk factors, financial data and financial statements
and notes thereto. In this prospectus, the terms "IMAX," "we," "our," "us" and
the "company" refer to IMAX Corporation and, unless the context otherwise
requires or otherwise expressly stated, its consolidated subsidiaries.

                                IMAX CORPORATION

     We are one of the world's leading entertainment technology companies,
specializing in large-format and three-dimensional, or 3D, film presentations.
Our theatre systems use 15 perforation, 70mm, or 15/70 film, the largest
commercially available film format, which allows IMAX theatres to present
stunning images of exceptional quality and clarity on screens up to one-hundred
feet wide and eight stories tall. These images fill a viewer's peripheral vision
and, together with our proprietary 6-channel digital sound systems and unique
theatre designs, create "The IMAX Experience," which makes audiences feel as if
they are "in the movie." IMAX films have taken viewers to the bottom of the
ocean, in space to the International Space Station and, most recently, inside
some of Hollywood's most exciting blockbuster movies such as Star Wars Episode
II: Attack of the Clones, The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions. The
IMAX brand is world famous and stands for the highest-quality, most immersive
filmed entertainment. It is one of our most valuable assets and it attracts
audiences to IMAX theatres, thereby increasing demand for leases of our theatre
systems. We generate the majority of our revenue through upfront and recurring
payments received in connection with the leasing of our theatre systems to third
party operators. We generally do not own IMAX theatres. For the nine months
ended September 30, 2003, we generated revenue of $90.2 million, earnings from
operations of $11.2 million and net earnings from continuing operations of $0.1
million.

     IMAX created the large-format theatre industry more than 35 years ago. We
estimate that IMAX theatres represent a significant majority of the large-format
theatres in operation and almost all of 15/70 theatres in operation. At
September 30, 2003, there were 239 IMAX theatre systems operating in 36
countries. For the nine months ended September 30, 2003, IMAX systems revenue
from these theatres totaled $56.0 million. Our sales backlog, which represented
contracts for 61 theatre systems, totaled $139.5 million at September 30, 2003.
We are also a producer and distributor of large-format films and the largest
provider of large-format post-production services. In addition, we engage in
other related businesses, including renting camera equipment for large-format
film production and owning and operating seven IMAX theatres.

     IMAX theatres are found in some of the most prestigious educational
institutions and destination entertainment centers in the world. However, we
believe that commercial markets, including multiplex theatres and entertainment
destinations, offer the greatest potential for growth of the IMAX network. We
believe that our expansion into these markets will result from the favorable
economics that IMAX theatres can provide to commercial theatre-owners and
filmmakers. These economics have been enhanced by two recent developments:

     - IMAX DMR, our new proprietary film conversion technology, which allows us
       to digitally re-master virtually any 35mm live-action film into our 15/70
       film format at a cost of approximately $2 million to $4 million per film
       and gives us the ability to benefit from Hollywood event film releases
       and their large marketing budgets.

     - IMAX MPX, our new theatre projection system designed specifically for use
       in multiplex auditoriums, which reduces the capital and operating costs
       required to run an IMAX theatre, while still offering consumers the image
       and sound quality of The IMAX Experience.

                                        1


OUR REVENUE MODEL

     Our long-term lease arrangements with customers provide us with significant
upfront cash payments received and predictable recurring cash flow in the form
of ongoing rent and maintenance fees over the lease durations. We also have a
substantial sales backlog of orders under contract. This backlog represents
future revenue and will also increase our recurring rental and maintenance
payments received when these theatre systems are installed. We also participate
in the upside of successful films released to the IMAX theatre network at no
additional expense because ongoing rental payments received are equal to the
greater of a fixed minimum amount per annum and a percentage of box office
receipts.

     Our customers generally fall into three categories:

     - museums, science centers and other institutions, such as the Smithsonian
       Institution in Washington, D.C., the New England Aquarium in Boston,
       Massachusetts and the Shanghai Science and Technology Museum in China;

     - multiplex theatres, such as the Loews Cineplex Lincoln Square in New York
       City and National Amusement's THE BRIDGE cinema de lux in Los Angeles;
       and

     - theme parks, tourist destination sites, fairs, expositions and other
       entertainment destination centers, such as the Grand Canyon IMAX Theatre
       in Arizona.

     The institutional and entertainment destination markets, both domestic and
foreign, have provided consistent demand for our theatre systems. The operators
of multiplex theatres have been our fastest growing customer segment since 1997.
The commercial exhibition industry went through significant financial
difficulties in 2000 and 2001, when numerous theatre chains filed for bankruptcy
protection due to over-building of multiplexes and over-leverage. While this had
a significant impact on our business and reported financial results for those
years, most of these companies have now emerged from such proceedings and have
successfully recapitalized. With the development of our commercial strategy
featuring IMAX DMR technology and the IMAX MPX system, we expect that these
exhibitors will be a significant source of growth for us in the future.

OUR COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE

     We believe that IMAX has a significant competitive advantage because of:

     - Brand -- IMAX is one of the few widely recognized brands in filmed
       entertainment, and the only such brand in large-format theatres.

     - The IMAX Experience -- We believe IMAX theatre systems provide a unique
       and immersive film experience with the highest-quality images and sound
       available.

     - Films -- IMAX theatres have exclusive access to our library of 15/70
       format films, the largest such library in the world. They will also have
       exclusive access to Hollywood films converted to 15/70 film format using
       our new and proprietary IMAX DMR technology, such as the last two films
       of the Matrix trilogy.

     - Innovation -- We have a tradition of innovation and continue to invest in
       research and development. In North America, we currently have 43 patents
       issued with 16 more pending. From the first large-format projector to 3D
       projection to IMAX DMR and IMAX MPX, we have a record of developing new
       technologies that improve our viewers' entertainment experience and
       increase our customers' profitability.

     - Reliability -- IMAX theatre systems have historical operating uptimes of
       approximately 99.9% based on scheduled shows.

                                        2


OUR BUSINESS STRATEGY

     We expect growth in our revenue will be primarily driven by new IMAX
theatre system leases to commercial exhibitors. We remain committed to our
historical roots in museums and science centers, but we believe that the size of
that market is relatively limited compared to the potential in the commercial
multiplex market. There are approximately 1,900 multiplexes in North America, of
which fewer than 35 have IMAX theatres, a penetration rate below 2%.
Internationally, the penetration rate is even lower. To expand our theatre
network we intend to:

     - increase the revenue potential of commercial IMAX theatres and Hollywood
       studios by using our proprietary IMAX DMR technology which converts
       live-action films into IMAX-quality images and sound;

     - reduce the capital and operating costs of leasing an IMAX theatre for
       commercial exhibitors with our IMAX MPX theatre system; and

     - continue to grow in our existing, traditional customer base of
       educational and institutional centers.

  INCREASE REVENUE POTENTIAL OF COMMERCIAL IMAX THEATRES AND HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS

     The motion picture industry is increasingly producing large-scale Hollywood
blockbuster event films, which have proven to be significant revenue generators
worldwide. IMAX DMR allows us to digitally re-master virtually any 35mm
live-action film into IMAX's 15/70 film format at a cost of approximately $2
million to $4 million per film. We developed IMAX DMR to enable IMAX theatres to
become an additional distribution channel for commercial films developed and
produced by Hollywood studios and we believe that this new proprietary
technology will significantly expand the commercially attractive content
available for exclusive release to IMAX theatres and will increase their
revenues. While IMAX DMR gives us the ability to bring previously released
Hollywood classics to the IMAX network, the centerpiece of the IMAX strategy is
the contemporaneous release of event films in IMAX and 35mm theatres, such as
the November 5, 2003 release of The Matrix Revolutions. This allows the IMAX
release to take advantage of the considerable marketing campaigns studios
traditionally launch in connection with their biggest event films. It is our
primary goal that viewers will want to see these types of event films in IMAX
theatres and pay a premium price for the enhanced experience. In the North
American multiplexes that showed The Matrix Reloaded in 35mm and in IMAX's 15/70
film format, the average ticket price for the IMAX screening was $10.68 versus
$8.65 for the 35mm screening. At its release, the average North American ticket
price for the IMAX screening of The Matrix Revolutions was $11.20 versus $8.66
for the 35mm screening. We believe that the meaningful expansion of Hollywood
content available to IMAX theatres will result in increased attendance and
revenue at IMAX theatres and increased demand for IMAX theatre systems. We also
believe that such increased demand for our theatre systems will encourage
studios to release more films to the expanded IMAX theatre network, and that
this additional film product should further increase demand for IMAX theatre
systems.

     Since our IMAX DMR technology was introduced 16 months ago, we have
released four digitally re-mastered films to the IMAX network, all of which have
been favorably received by patrons according to independent research
commissioned by us. The first film released was Apollo 13: The IMAX Experience
in September 2002, which demonstrated the appeal of the IMAX DMR technology.
This was followed by the release of Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the
Clones -- The IMAX Experience, which generated more revenue per screen in its
opening weekend than any other film in North America during that period. On
April 22, 2003, we announced an agreement with Warner Bros. Pictures to convert
The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions, the last two films of the Matrix
trilogy that began with the 1999 blockbuster film The Matrix, to IMAX's format.
The IMAX DMR version of The Matrix Reloaded ran exclusively on over 70 IMAX
screens beginning June 6, 2003, approximately four weeks after the domestic
release of the film to conventional 35mm theatres. Since the IMAX release, IMAX
screens have accounted for 27% of the film's total box office receipts in North
America to October 31, 2003 despite accounting for just 7.3% of the screens
exhibiting the film in North America. On November 5, 2003, The Matrix
Revolutions

                                        3


became the first-ever live-action Hollywood film released simultaneously to both
IMAX theatres and 35mm theatres. In North America, the film grossed
approximately $3.0 million in the first five days of its release on 48 IMAX
screens, representing approximately $63,000 in per screen revenue. In addition,
on December 18, 2003, we announced a further agreement with Warner Bros.
Pictures to convert Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, the third
installment of the Harry Potter film series, to IMAX's 15/70 format. The film is
scheduled to be released to 35mm theatres and IMAX theatres in June 2004. We
believe that these events position IMAX theatres as a unique and separate
release window for Hollywood films similar to the type created when Hollywood
studios began including the pay TV and home video industries as release windows
for their films.

  REDUCE THE CAPITAL AND OPERATING COSTS FOR COMMERCIAL EXHIBITORS

     We have consistently sought to improve the profitability of an IMAX theatre
by reducing theatre capital and operating costs. In the past, we have
successfully reduced our customers' costs by introducing innovations such as the
IMAX SR theatre system, which was designed for smaller markets. Continued
reduction of capital and operating costs remains a focus of our research and
development team. Our most recent achievement has been the development of the
IMAX MPX system, our new lower cost theatre projection system designed
specifically for use in multiplex auditoriums. The IMAX MPX system reduces the
per-seat capital cost of an IMAX theatre by approximately 35% as compared to the
IMAX SR system and increases the potential market size for IMAX theatres. The
IMAX MPX system also reduces the operating costs required to run an IMAX theatre
by eliminating the need for a specialized projectionist. However, it still
offers consumers the image and sound quality of The IMAX Experience. The IMAX
MPX system can be installed as part of a newly constructed multiplex, as an
add-on to an existing multiplex, or as a retrofit of two existing stadium seat
multiplex auditoriums. We believe that this innovative retrofit option
represents a significant opportunity for commercial operators to both reduce the
capital costs of building an IMAX theatre and improve the profitability of the
two multiplex auditoriums being retrofitted. Since its launch, we have entered
into sales or lease agreements for nine IMAX MPX systems in 11 months. The first
IMAX MPX system is expected to be installed in the first half of 2004.

  CONTINUED GROWTH IN OUR EXISTING CUSTOMER SEGMENT

     We continue to sell and lease IMAX theatre systems to educational and
institutional centers, particularly in international markets such as China. The
last two years have seen the successful release and development of numerous
traditional large-format films, particularly 3D films, which continue to perform
well in institutional, educational and commercial venues. Our fourth space film,
SPACE STATION, has generated approximately $67 million of gross box office
receipts since its release in April 2002, and continues to generate gross box
office receipts of close to $250,000 per week. Our 2002 holiday film, Santa vs.
the Snowman, had a successful run in IMAX theatres during the 2002 holiday
season and was shown on 79 IMAX screens during the 2003 holiday season. We
currently have other notable films in production or development, including
NASCAR The IMAX Experience 3D, scheduled for release in March 2004, and
Magnificent Desolation, a film about the men of the Apollo missions who walked
on the moon, in collaboration with Playtone and its principals, Tom Hanks and
Gary Goetzman.

                              RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

  REDEMPTION AND REPURCHASE OF 7 7/8% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2005

     In December 2003, we concluded a tender offer and consent solicitation for
$152.8 million outstanding principal amount of our 7 7/8% senior notes due 2005
in which we purchased approximately $123.6 million of such senior notes. On
January 2, 2004, we redeemed all the senior notes not acquired in the tender
offer pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of the senior notes. The
net proceeds from the offering of the old notes, together with cash on hand, was
used to fund the purchase and redemption of the 7 7/8% senior notes due 2005.

                                        transfer under the Securities Act;

Resale of Notes...............   We believe you may offer the notes for resale,
                                 resell and otherwise transfer them without

                                 delivery provisions of the Securities Act if:

                                      - you are acquiring the notes in the
                                        ordinary course of your business;

                                        in, and have no arrangement or
                                        understanding with any person to
                                        participate in, the distribution of the
                                        notes issued to you; and

                                      - you are not a broker-dealer or an
                                        "affiliate" of ours within the meaning
                                        of Rule 405 under the Securities Act.

                                      - you tender your old notes and they are

Certain U.S. Federal Income
Tax Considerations............   We believe that the exchange of the old notes
                                 for notes should not constitute a taxable
                                 exchange for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
                                 See "Certain Federal Income Tax
                                 Considerations -- U.S. Federal Income Tax
                                 Considerations." You should consult your own
                                 tax advisor to determine the tax consequences
                                 of your decision to participate in the exchange
                                 offer.

Certain Canadian Federal
Income Tax Considerations.....   Holders will not be subject to tax under the
                                 Income Tax Act (Canada) on the exchange of old
                                 notes for notes. See "Certain Federal Income
                                 Tax Considerations -- Canadian Federal Income
                                 Tax Considerations." You should consult your
                                 own tax advisor to determine the tax
                                 consequences of your decision to participate in
                                 the exchange offer.

Use of Proceeds...............   We will not receive any cash proceeds from the
                                 issuance of the notes in the exchange offer.

Additional Amounts............   All payments made by or on behalf of IMAX with
                                 respect to the notes will be made without
                                 withholding or deduction for
                                        8


                                 Canadian taxes unless required by law. If we
                                 are required by law to withhold or deduct for
                                 Canadian taxes with respect to a payment to the
                                 holders of notes, we will pay the additional
                                 amounts necessary so that the net amount
                                 received by the holders of notes after the
                                 withholding is not less than the amount that
                                 they would have received in the absence of the
                                 withholding. See "Description of the

                                 interest, if any, to the date of redemption in
                                 the event of changes affecting Canadian
                                 withholding taxes that would require us to pay
                                 additional amounts to holders of the notes. See
                                 "Description of the Notes -- Optional
                                 Redemption."

Ranking.......................   The notes will be unsecured obligations. The
                                 notes will rank:

                                 - equally with any of our existing and future
                                   senior indebtedness; and

                                 - senior to all our existing and future
                                   subordinated indebtedness.

                                 The notes will be effectively subordinated to
                                 all existing and future indebtedness and other
                                 liabilities of our subsidiaries that have not
                                 guaranteed the notes. As at September 30, 2003,
                                 excluding intercompany liabilities, our
                                 subsidiaries that are not guarantors of the
                                 notes had approximately $1.0 million of
                                 outstanding indebtedness and other liabilities,
                                 as to which the notes would have been
                                 effectively subordinated.

Covenants.....................   We will issue the notes under an indenture with
                                 U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The
                                 indenture governing the notes, among other
                                 things, restricts our ability to:

                                 - incur additional indebtedness;

                                 - make distributions or certain other
                                   restricted payments;

                                 - grant liens;

                                 - create dividend and other payment
                                   restrictions affecting our subsidiaries;

                                 - sell certain assets or merge with or into
                                   other companies; and

                                 - enter into transactions with affiliates.

                                 Notes -- Certain Covenants."

Absence of an Established
Market for the Notes..........   The old notes are not presently listed on any
                                 securities exchange nor are they quoted on any
                                 quotation system. The notes are a new issue of
                                 securities, and currently there is no market
                                 for them. We do not intend to apply for the
                                 notes to be listed on any securities exchange
                                 or to arrange for any quotation system to quote
                                 them. The initial purchasers have advised us
                                 that they intend to make a market for the
                                 notes, but they are not obligated to do so. The
                                 initial purchasers may discontinue any
                                 market-making in the notes or any exchange
                                 notes at any time in their sole discretion.
                                 Accordingly, we cannot assure you that a liquid
                                 market will develop for the notes.

(1)  In circumstances where customers are not in compliance with the terms of
     their leases for theatre systems not yet installed, the leases are in
     default. There is typically deferred revenue associated with these leases,
     representing upfront lease payments received prior to the default. These
     upfront lease payments received are recognized as revenue when we exercise
     our rights to terminate the lease and we are released legally or by virtue
     of an agreement with the customer from our obligations under the lease
     arrangement. Included in systems revenue is $1.4 million, $5.5 million and
     $5.1 million in 2000, 2001, and 2002, respectively, and $5.3 million and
     $7.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2003,
     respectively, for amounts recognized under terminated lease agreements.

(2)  During the year ended December 31, 2000, we recognized an $8.6 million
     charge in costs of goods and services which relates to the write-down of
     certain films in distribution. Costs of goods and services during the year
     ended December 31, 2001 included charges of $4.1 million and $16.5 million
     relating to a reduced realizable value of our inventories and reduced fair
     values of our film assets, respectively.

(3)  Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December
     31, 2001 included a $2.6 million non-cash charge for incurred compensation
     resulting from a stock grant issuance.

(4)  Effective January 1, 2002, we adopted FASB Financial Accounting Standard
     No. 142, "Goodwill and other Intangibles" ("FAS 142"), under which goodwill
     and intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized but are
     reviewed at least annually for impairment. In accordance with FAS 142, the
     effect of this change in accounting principle is reflected prospectively.
     Included in amortization of intangibles is goodwill amortization of $1.8
     million and $2.3 million for 2000 and 2001, respectively.

(5)  In 2000, loss (income) from equity-accounted investees included a $4.0
     million provision related to the guarantee of a term loan undertaken by the
     Forum Ride Associates joint venture, the principal business of which is the
     operation of the "Race for Atlantis" ride in Las Vegas.

(6)  In 2000, restructuring costs and asset impairments (recoveries) included
     charges of $11.2 million relating to fixed assets. In 2001, restructuring
     costs and asset impairments (recoveries) included $16.3 million related to
     efforts to rationalize the business by reducing our overall corporate
     workforce and consolidation of our operations, which included relocating
     our sound-system facility to near

                                        12


     Toronto, Canada. In the assessment of the assets, we recorded charges of
     $26.7 million of fixed assets, and $3.3 million of other assets.

(7)  During the year ended December 31, 2001, we and one of our wholly-owned
     subsidiaries purchased and cancelled an aggregate of $70.4 million
     principal amount of our convertible subordinated notes for $13.7 million,
     consisting of $12.5 million in cash from the subsidiary and common shares
     issued by us valued at $1.2 million. We recorded a gain of $55.6 million in
     connection with this transaction. During 2002, we and one of our
     wholly-owned subsidiaries purchased and cancelled an additional aggregate
     of $20.5 million principal amount of our convertible subordinated notes for
     $8.1 million, consisting of $6.0 million in cash from the subsidiary and
     common shares issued by us valued at $2.1 million. We recorded a gain of
     $11.9 million in connection with this transaction. For the nine months
     ended September 30, 2002, we and one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries
     purchased and cancelled an additional aggregate of $20.5 million principal
     amount of our convertible subordinated notes for $8.2 million, consisting
     of $6.1 million in cash from the subsidiary and common shares issued by us
     valued at $2.1 million. We recorded a gain of $12.0 million, net of
     expenses, in connection with this transaction.

(8)  Recovery on (impairment of) long-term investments represents charges of
     $4.1 million and $5.6 million relating to the impairment of certain of our
     long-term investments, for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001,
     respectively.

(9)  In 2001, the recovery of (provision for) income taxes included a $41.2
     million increase in the valuation allowance to reflect uncertainty
     associated with realization of our deferred income tax asset.

(10) Net earnings (loss) from discontinued operations consists of our subsidiary
     Digital Projection International which was acquired in September 1999 and
     sold in December 2001.

(11) In the year ended December 31, 2000, we recognized a charge of $54.5
     million, net of income tax benefit of $33.4 million, in accordance with the
     interpretive guidance of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101"),
     "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements," effective January 1, 2000.
     We also adopted AICPA Statement of Position 00-2 ("SOP 00-2"), "Accounting
     by Producers or Distributors of Film," and recorded a charge of $6.6
     million, net of income tax benefit of $3.9 million, to reflect the adoption
     of this new pronouncement.

(12) Represents the number of theatre systems which were the subject of sale or
     lease agreements (including joint ventures) we entered into in the periods
     indicated.

(13) As adjusted to reflect the exchange in October 2003 of $15.7 million
     aggregate principal amount of our 7 7/8% senior notes due 2005 for our
     common shares and the offering of the old notes and the application of the
     net proceeds from the offering of the old notes as described under "Use of
     Proceeds." Excludes the payment of approximately $6.3 million of interest
     on the 7 7/8% senior notes due 2005 in December 2003 and January 2004, but
     includes $3.5 million of cash collateralized in support of our letters of
     credit.

                                  RISK FACTORS

     Investing in the notes involves a high degree of risk. Before deciding
whether to exchange the old notes for notes, you should carefully consider the
following risks in addition to the other information in this prospectus and the
documents incorporated by reference. If any of the risks described below occurs,
our business, operating results and financial condition could be materially
adversely affected.

     The risks described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks
not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial, may also impair
our business or operations.

RISKS RELATED TO THE NOTES

  WE ARE HIGHLY LEVERAGED, AND THIS IMPAIRS OUR ABILITY TO OBTAIN FINANCING AND
  LIMITS CASH FLOW AVAILABLE FOR OUR OPERATIONS.

     We are highly leveraged. As at September 30, 2003, as adjusted to reflect
the retirement in October 2003 of an aggregate principal amount of $15.7 million
of our 7 7/8% senior notes due 2005, the offering of the old notes and the
purchase and redemption of our outstanding 7 7/8% senior notes due 2005, our
total long-term indebtedness would be $160.0 million. At September 30, 2003, our
shareholders' deficiency was $68.9 million. Our high leverage has important
possible consequences. It may:

     - make it more difficult for us to satisfy our financial obligations;

     - limit our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital,
       capital expenditures, acquisitions or general corporate purposes;

     - require us to dedicate all or a substantial portion of our cash flow from
       operations to the payment of principal and interest on our indebtedness,
       resulting in less cash available for our operations and other purposes;

     - limit our ability to rapidly adjust to changing market conditions; and

     - increase our vulnerability to downturns in our business or in general
       economic conditions.

     Our ability to satisfy our obligations and to reduce our total debt depends
on our future operating performance. Our future operating performance is subject
to many factors, including economic, financial and competitive factors, which
may be beyond our control. As a result, we may not be able to generate
sufficient cash flow, and future financings may not be available to provide
sufficient net proceeds, to meet these obligations or to execute our business
strategy successfully.

  WE MAY STILL BE ABLE TO INCUR MORE INDEBTEDNESS, WHICH COULD FURTHER
  EXACERBATE THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR SUBSTANTIAL INDEBTEDNESS.

     We may be able to incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future.
Although the indenture governing the notes and the agreement governing our new
credit facility contain restrictions on the incurrence of additional
indebtedness, debt incurred in compliance with these restrictions could be
substantial. If additional indebtedness is added to our current indebtedness
levels, the related risks that we face would be magnified. In addition, the
indenture does not prevent us from incurring obligations that do not constitute
indebtedness such as operating leases.

  WE MAY NOT GENERATE CASH FLOW SUFFICIENT TO SERVICE ALL OF OUR OBLIGATIONS,
  INCLUDING OUR OBLIGATIONS RELATED TO THE NOTES.

     Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our indebtedness,
including the notes, and to fund our operations, working capital and capital
expenditures, depends on our ability to generate cash in the future. Our cash
flow is subject to general economic, industry, financial, competitive,
operating, regulatory and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.
Our business may not generate cash flow in an amount sufficient to enable us to
repay our indebtedness, including the notes, or to fund our other liquidity
needs. We may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness, including
the notes, on or before
                                        14


maturity. Our ability to refinance our indebtedness or obtain additional
financing will depend on, among other things:

     - our financial condition at the time;

     - restrictions in the indenture governing the notes; and

     - the condition of the market and industries in which we operate.

     As a result, we may not be able to refinance any of our indebtedness,
including the notes, on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If we do not
generate sufficient cash flow from operations, and additional borrowings or
refinancings or proceeds of asset sales are not available to us, we may not have
sufficient cash to enable us to meet all of our obligations, including payments
on the notes.

  THE OLD NOTES ARE, AND THE NOTES WILL BE, UNSECURED AND EFFECTIVELY
  SUBORDINATED TO OUR SECURED INDEBTEDNESS AND THE LIABILITIES OF OUR
  SUBSIDIARIES THAT ARE NOT GUARANTORS OF THE NOTES.

     The old notes are, and the notes will be, our general unsecured
obligations, ranking effectively junior in right of payment to all our existing
and future secured debt to the extent of the collateral securing such debt. As
at September 30, 2003, after giving effect to the offering of the old notes and
the purchase and redemption of our 7 7/8% senior notes due 2005, we would have
had no secured debt outstanding. On February 6, 2004, we entered into a new
$20.0 million credit facility, which is secured by all of the assets of IMAX
Corporation and certain of its subsidiaries. In addition, the indenture
governing the notes permits the incurrence of additional debt, some of which may
be secured debt.

     In the event that we are declared bankrupt, become insolvent or are
liquidated or reorganized, any secured indebtedness will be entitled to be paid
in full from our assets securing such indebtedness before any payment may be
made with respect to the notes. Holders of the notes will participate ratably in
our remaining assets with all holders of our unsecured indebtedness that is
deemed to rank equally with the notes, and potentially with all of the other
general creditors (including trade creditors), based upon the respective amounts
owed to each holder or creditor. In any of the foregoing circumstances, there
may be insufficient assets to pay amounts due on the notes. As a result, holders
of the notes may receive less, ratably, than holders of our secured
indebtedness.

     In addition, the old notes are, and the notes will also be, effectively
subordinated to any existing and future liabilities of our subsidiaries that are
not guarantors of the notes. As at September 30, 2003, such subsidiaries had
$1.0 million of liabilities (excluding intercompany liabilities).

  THE AGREEMENTS GOVERNING OUR INDEBTEDNESS CONTAIN SIGNIFICANT RESTRICTIONS
  THAT LIMIT OUR OPERATING AND FINANCIAL FLEXIBILITY AND MAY AFFECT OUR ABILITY
  TO MAKE PAYMENTS ON THE NOTES.

     The indenture governing the notes and the agreement governing our new
credit facility contain covenants that, among other things, limit our ability
to:

     - incur additional indebtedness;

     - pay dividends and make distributions;

     - repurchase stock;

     - make certain investments;

     - transfer or sell assets;

     - create liens;

     - enter into transactions with affiliates;

     - issue or sell stock of subsidiaries;

     - create dividend or other payment restrictions affecting restricted
       subsidiaries; and

     - merge, consolidate, amalgamate or sell all or substantially all of our
       assets to another person.

                                        15


     These restrictions may limit our ability to execute our business strategy.
Moreover, if operating results fall below current levels, we may be unable to
comply with these covenants. If that occurs, our lenders, including you, could
accelerate our indebtedness. If our indebtedness is accelerated, we may not be
able to repay all of our indebtedness, in which case your notes may not be fully
repaid, if they are repaid at all.

  WE MAY BE UNABLE TO PURCHASE NOTES IN THE EVENT OF A CHANGE OF CONTROL.

     Upon the occurrence of a change of control, as defined in the indenture, we
will be required to make an offer to purchase notes at a price equal to 101% of
their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of
purchase. We may not have sufficient funds to make the required offer to
purchase at the time of such event. Any future debt that we incur may also
contain restrictions on the purchase of the notes.

  CERTAIN BANKRUPTCY AND INSOLVENCY LAWS MAY IMPAIR THE TRUSTEE'S ABILITY TO
  ENFORCE REMEDIES UNDER THE NOTES.

     We are incorporated under the laws of Canada, and substantially all of our
assets are located in Canada. Under bankruptcy laws in the United States, courts
typically have jurisdiction over a debtor's property, wherever located,
including property situated in other countries. There can be no assurance,
however, that courts outside the United States would recognize the U.S.
bankruptcy court's jurisdiction. Accordingly, difficulties may arise in
administering a U.S. bankruptcy case involving a Canadian debtor like us with
property located outside the United States, and any orders or judgments of a
bankruptcy court in the United States may not be enforceable in Canada against
us.

     The rights of the trustee to enforce remedies may be significantly impaired
by the restructuring provisions of applicable Canadian federal bankruptcy,
insolvency and other restructuring legislation if the benefit of such
legislation is sought with respect to us. For example, both the Bankruptcy and
Insolvency Act (Canada) and the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada)
contain provisions enabling an "insolvent person" to obtain a stay of proceeding
as against its creditors and others and to prepare and file a proposal for
consideration by all or some of its creditors to be voted on by the various
classes of its creditors. Such a restructuring proposal, if accepted by the
requisite majorities of creditors and approved by the court, may be binding on
persons, such as holders of the notes, who may not otherwise be willing to
accept it. Moreover, this legislation permits, in certain circumstances, an
insolvent debtor to retain possession and administration of its property, even
though it may be in default under the applicable debt instrument.

     The powers of the court under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act and
particularly under the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act have been exercised
broadly to protect a restructuring entity from actions taken by creditors and
other parties. Accordingly, if we were to seek protection under such Canadian
insolvency legislation following commencement of or during such a proceeding,
payments under the notes may be discontinued, the trustee may be unable to
exercise its rights under the indenture and holders of the notes may not be
compensated for any delays in payments, if any, of principal and interest and
may have their claims under the notes compromised as part of a restructuring
proposal.

  APPLICABLE STATUTES ALLOW COURTS, UNDER SPECIFIC CIRCUMSTANCES, TO VOID THE
  GUARANTEES OF THE NOTES PROVIDED BY CERTAIN OF OUR SUBSIDIARIES.

     Our creditors or the creditors of one or more guarantors of the notes could
challenge the guarantees as fraudulent transfers, conveyances or preferences or
on other grounds under applicable U.S. federal or state law or applicable
Canadian federal or provincial law. While the relevant laws vary from one
jurisdiction to another, the entering into the guarantees by certain of our
subsidiaries could be found to be a fraudulent transfer, conveyance or
preference or otherwise void if a court were to determine that:

     - a guarantor delivered its guarantee with the intent to defeat, hinder,
       delay or defraud its existing or future creditors; or

                                        16


     - the guarantor did not receive fair consideration for the delivery of the
       guarantee and the guarantor was insolvent at the time it delivered the
       guarantee; or

     - the guarantor was rendered insolvent by reason of the guarantee; or

     - the guarantor was engaged, or was about to engage, in a business or
       transaction for which its remaining assets constituted unreasonably small
       capital to carry on its business; or

     - the guarantor intended to incur, or believed it would incur, debts beyond
       its ability to pay the debts as they matured.

     To the extent a court voids a guarantee as a fraudulent transfer,
preference or conveyance or holds it unenforceable for any other reason, holders
of notes would cease to have any direct claim against the guarantor that
delivered a guarantee. If a court were to take this action, the guarantor's
assets would be applied first to satisfy the guarantor's liabilities, including
trade payables and preferred stock claims, if any, before any portion of its
assets could be distributed to us to be applied to the payment of the notes. We
cannot assure you that a guarantor's remaining assets would be sufficient to
satisfy the claims of the holders of notes relating to any voided portions of
the guarantees.

     In addition, the corporate statutes governing the guarantors of the notes
may also have provisions that serve to protect each guarantor's creditors from
impairment of its capital from financial assistance given to its corporate
insiders where there are reasonable grounds to believe that, as a consequence of
this financial assistance, the guarantor would be insolvent or the book value,
or in some cases the realizable value, of its assets would be less than the sum
of its liabilities and its issued and paid-up share capital. While the
applicable corporate laws may not generally prohibit financial assistance
transactions and a corporation is generally permitted flexibility in its
financial dealings, the applicable corporate laws may prohibit or restrict each
guarantor's ability to give financial assistance in certain circumstances.

  IF YOU DO NOT PROPERLY TENDER YOUR OLD NOTES, YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE NOTES IN
  THE EXCHANGE OFFER, AND YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SELL YOUR OLD NOTES.

     We registered the notes, but not the old notes, under the Securities Act.
The old notes may not be offered or sold except pursuant to an exemption from
the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state
securities laws or pursuant to an effective registration statement. We will
issue notes only in exchange for old notes that are timely received by the
exchange agent, together with all required documents, including a properly
completed and duly signed letter of transmittal. Therefore, you should allow
sufficient time to ensure timely delivery of the old notes, and you should
carefully follow the instructions on how to tender your old notes.

     Neither we nor the exchange agent is required to tell you of any defects or
irregularities with respect to your tender of the old notes. If you do not
tender your old notes or if we do not accept your old notes because you did not
tender your old notes properly then, after we consummate the exchange offer, you
will continue to hold old notes that are subject to the existing transfer
restrictions. In general, you may not offer or sell the old notes unless they
are registered under the Securities Act or offered or sold in a transaction
exempt from, or not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities
Act and applicable state securities laws.

     Although we may in the future seek to acquire unexchanged old notes in open
market or privately negotiated transactions, through subsequent exchange offers
or otherwise, we have no present plans and are not required to acquire any
unexchanged old notes or to file with the SEC a shelf registration statement to
permit resales of any unexchanged old notes. In addition, holders of old notes
other than the initial purchasers or holders who are prohibited by applicable
law or SEC policy from participating in the exchange offer or who may not resell
the notes acquired in the exchange offer without delivering a prospectus, will
not have any further registration rights and will not have the right to receive
special interest on their old notes.

                                        17


  THE MARKET FOR THE OLD NOTES MAY BE SIGNIFICANTLY MORE LIMITED AFTER THE
  EXCHANGE OFFER.

     Because we anticipate that most holders of old notes will elect to exchange
their old notes, we expect that the liquidity of the market for any old notes
remaining after the completion of the exchange offer may be substantially
limited. Any old notes tendered and exchanged in the exchange offer will reduce
the aggregate principal amount of the old notes outstanding. Accordingly, the
liquidity of the market for any old notes could be adversely affected and you
may be unable to sell them. The extent of the market for the old notes and the
availability of price quotations would depend on a number of factors, including
the number of holders of old notes remaining outstanding and the interest of
securities firms in maintaining a market in the old notes. An issue of
securities with a smaller number of units available for trading may command a
lower, and more volatile, price than would a comparable issue of securities with
a larger number of units available for trading. Therefore, the market price for
the old notes that are not exchanged may be lower and more volatile as a result
of the reduction in the aggregate principal amount of the old notes outstanding.

  THERE IS CURRENTLY NO ACTIVE TRADING MARKET FOR THE NOTES. IF AN ACTIVE
  TRADING MARKET DOES NOT DEVELOP FOR THE NOTES, YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO RESELL
  THEM.

     No active trading market currently exists for the notes and an active
trading market may not develop in the future. The notes will not be listed on
any securities exchange. If an active trading market does not develop, it could
have an adverse effect on the market price of, and your ability to sell, the
notes. Historically, the market for non-investment grade debt has been subject
to disruptions that have caused substantial volatility in the prices of
securities similar to the notes. The market for the notes, if any, may be
subject to similar disruptions. The trading price may depend upon prevailing
interest rates, the market for similar securities, and other factors, including
general economic conditions and our financial condition, performance and
prospects. These factors could adversely affect you as a holder of notes.

  NON-U.S. HOLDERS OF THE NOTES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON THE RESALE OF THE
  NOTES.

     We sold the old notes in reliance on exemptions from the laws of other
jurisdictions where the notes were offered and sold, and therefore the old notes
may be transferred and resold, including pursuant to the exchange offer, only in
compliance with the laws of those jurisdictions to the extent applicable to the
transaction, the transferor and/or the transferee. Although we registered the
notes under the Securities Act, we did not, and do not intend to, qualify the
notes for distribution in Canada by prospectus and, accordingly, the notes will
remain subject to restrictions on resale in Canada. In addition, non-U.S.
holders will remain subject to restrictions imposed by the jurisdiction in which
the holder is resident. See "The Exchange Offer."

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

  OUR THEATRE SYSTEM REVENUE CAN VARY SIGNIFICANTLY FROM OUR CASH FLOWS UNDER
  THEATRE SYSTEM SALES AND LEASE AGREEMENTS.

     Our theatre system revenue can vary significantly from the associated cash
flows. We generally provide our theatre systems to customers on a long-term
lease basis with initial lease terms of typically 10 to 20 years. Our lease
agreements typically provide for three major sources of cash flow:

     - initial rental fees, which are paid in installments commencing upon the
       signing of the lease agreement until installation of the system;

     - ongoing rental payments, which are paid monthly after system installation
       and are generally equal to the greater of a fixed minimum amount per
       annum and a percentage of box office receipts; and

     - annual maintenance fees, which are generally payable commencing in the
       second year of theatre operations.

     Initial rental payments generally make up a majority of cash received for a
theatre system lease.

                                        18


     Theatre system leases that transfer substantially all of the benefits and
risks of ownership to customers are classified as sales-type leases. Revenue
from sales-type leases is recorded at the time installation is complete and
other revenue recognition conditions are satisfied. The revenue recorded is
equal to the sum of initial rental payments and the present value of minimum
additional rental fees due under the lease agreement. Cash received from initial
rental fees in advance of installation is recorded as deferred revenue.

     Leases that do not transfer substantially all of the benefits and risks of
ownership to the customer are classified as operating leases. For these leases,
initial rental fees and minimum ongoing rental payments are recognized as
revenue on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

     Periodically, we sell our theatre systems to customers. These sales
generally provide for initial cash receipts and the receipt of payments over
time, typically 10 to 20 years.

  THERE IS COLLECTION RISK ASSOCIATED WITH LEASE PAYMENTS TO BE RECEIVED OVER
  THE TERMS OF OUR THEATRE SYSTEM LEASES.

     We are dependent in part on the viability of the North American commercial
exhibitor market for collections under long-term leases. In recent years, many
of the North American commercial exhibitor chains faced financial difficulties.
We cannot assure you that commercial exhibitors to whom we lease theatre systems
will not experience financial difficulties in the future. We may not collect all
of our contracted future lease payments. Our revenue can vary significantly from
our cash flows under theatre system sales and lease agreements, and there is
collection risk associated with rental payments to be received over the terms of
our leases.

  WE MAY NOT CONVERT ALL OF OUR BACKLOG INTO REVENUE AND CASH FLOWS.

     We list signed contracts for theatre system sales and sales-type leases as
sales backlog prior to the time of revenue recognition. Sales backlog represents
the total value of all signed system sales and lease agreements that are
expected to be recognized as revenue in the future and includes initial rental
fees along with the present value of contractual minimum rents due over the
lease term, but excludes maintenance revenues as well as rents in excess of
contractual minimums that might be received in the future. All of our customers
with which we have signed contracts may not accept delivery of theatre systems
that are included in our backlog. Moreover, if we litigate to enforce a
customer's contractual obligations, there are no guarantees that such
obligations will ultimately be deemed to be enforceable. This could adversely
affect our future revenues. We have litigated in the past and are litigating
presently with customers who have refused to honor all of their backlog
obligations. In addition, customers with system obligations in backlog sometimes
request that we agree to modify or reduce such obligations. We have in the past,
under certain circumstances, and are presently, negotiating to restructure
backlog obligations of certain customers. The backlog obligations of other
customers may also be modified, reduced or otherwise restructured in the future,
which can adversely affect our future revenues and cash flows.

  WE DEPEND ON COMMERCIAL MOVIE EXHIBITORS TO LEASE OUR IMAX THEATRE SYSTEMS AND
  TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL REVENUES AND VENUES IN WHICH TO EXHIBIT OUR IMAX DMR
  FILMS.

     A number of our commercial exhibition customers have emerged from
bankruptcy protection in recent years. We are unable to predict if or when they
or other exhibitors will lease or continue to lease IMAX theatre systems from us
or whether other commercial movie exhibitors will experience significant
financial difficulties in the future. A number of the IMAX theatres operated by
commercial exhibitors have been unprofitable in the past. If exhibitors choose
to reduce their levels of expansion or decide not to lease IMAX theatre systems
for their existing or new theatres, our revenues would not increase at an
anticipated rate and motion picture studios may be less willing to reformat
Hollywood 35mm films into our 15/70 film format for exhibition in commercial
IMAX theatres. As a result, our future revenues could be adversely affected.

                                        19


  OUR OPERATING RESULTS AND CASH FLOW CAN VARY SUBSTANTIALLY FROM QUARTER TO
  QUARTER AND COULD INCREASE THE VOLATILITY OF OUR SHARE PRICE.

     Our operating results and cash flow can fluctuate substantially from
quarter to quarter. In particular, fluctuations in theatre system installations
can materially affect operating results. In addition, theatre system contract
signings are not related to the timing of revenue recognition, and can have a
significant impact on our cash flow. This can make it difficult to accurately
forecast sales and profits or losses. Factors that have affected our operating
results and cash flow in the past, and are likely to affect our operating
results and cash flow in the future include, among other things:

     - the timing of signing and installation of new theatre systems;

     - demand for, and acceptance of, our products and services;

     - revenue recognition of sales and sales-type leases;

     - classification of leases as sales-type versus operating leases;

     - volume of orders received and that can be fulfilled in the quarter;

     - the level of our sales backlog;

     - the timing and commercial success of films produced and distributed by us
       and others;

     - the signing of film distribution agreements;

     - the financial performance of IMAX theatres operated by our customers and
       by us; and

     - the financial difficulties, including bankruptcies, faced by our
       customers, particularly our customers in the commercial exhibition
       industry.

     Most of our operating expenses are fixed in the short term. We may be
unable to rapidly adjust our spending to compensate for any unexpected sales
shortfall, which would harm quarterly operating results. The results of any
quarterly period are not necessarily indicative of our results for any other
quarter or for a full fiscal year.

  WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO GENERATE PROFITS IN THE FUTURE.

     We may not be able to generate profits in any future period. Although we
generated a net profit for the year ended December 31, 2002 and the nine months
ended September 30, 2003, for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001, we had
significant net losses and experienced a decline in our sales and leases of
theatre systems and backlog. If we do not generate profits in future periods, we
may be unable to finance the operations of our business or meet our debt
obligations.

  OUR STRATEGY OF RE-MASTERING 35MM FILMS INTO THE 15/70 FILM FORMAT IS IN ITS
  EARLY STAGES OF IMPLEMENTATION AND EXPOSES US TO RISK.

     We have released four live-action 35mm films which have been reformatted
using our IMAX DMR technology and have contracted for the release of a fifth
such film in June 2004; the first live-action film formatted with IMAX DMR
technology into our 15/70 film format was released in September 2002. The
development of our IMAX DMR technology may not translate into additional
Hollywood films being distributed to the IMAX theatre network or additional
demand for IMAX systems. First, motion picture studios could find either the
technology or the potential revenues insufficient to justify reformatting
existing or new films into the 15/70 film format. Second, even if motion picture
studios agree to reformat their films with our IMAX DMR technology, such studios
may be reluctant to release reformatted films to IMAX theatres contemporaneously
with the initial release of such films to commercial 35mm theatres, which is an
important element of our commercial strategy. Third, even the most successful
existing or new films may prove to be unsuccessful when exhibited in IMAX
theatres.

                                        20


     In addition, motion picture studios could insist upon significant capital
contributions by us to go toward either the costs of reformatting a film, the
marketing of the reformatted film or both. Moreover, actual costs may exceed
their budgets and resulting revenues.

     Even though our IMAX DMR technology is patent-pending, such patents may not
be granted or the technology may prove to have low barriers to entry for others.
Other parties could develop similar or superior technology and release
reformatted Hollywood films to IMAX theatres or our competitors, without our
receiving any of the distribution or royalty revenue.

  THE SUCCESS OF THE IMAX THEATRE NETWORK IS DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE
  AVAILABILITY AND SUCCESS OF 15/70 FORMAT FILMS, OF WHICH WE PRODUCE A SMALL
  PERCENTAGE.

     An important factor affecting the growth and success of the IMAX theatre
network is the availability of 15/70 format films. We produce only a small
number of 15/70 format films and, as a result, we rely principally on 15/70
format films produced by third party filmmakers or converted from 35mm format
using our IMAX DMR technology. Third party filmmakers may not have sufficient
capital or other resources to continue to produce 15/70 format films or the
15/70 format films they produce may not be commercially successful.

  THE PRODUCTION OF 15/70 FORMAT FILMS REQUIRES SIGNIFICANT CAPITAL AND INVOLVES
  SUBSTANTIAL RISKS.

     The production, completion and distribution of 15/70 format films require a
significant amount of capital and involve substantial financial risks. Actual
costs may exceed budgets and factors such as technology changes, labor disputes
or other disruptions affecting aspects of production may affect third party
filmmakers, IMAX or our co-production partners and cause significant cost
overruns and delay or hamper completion of a production. We are continually
discussing the production or co-production of 15/70 format films, as well as the
reformatting of Hollywood films in connection with our IMAX DMR technology, with
various motion picture studios. However, we may not be able to complete
production or co-production arrangements with motion picture studios, and we may
not earn an adequate return on capital on these investments.

  OUR REVENUES FROM EXISTING CUSTOMERS ARE DERIVED IN PART FROM FINANCIAL
  REPORTING PROVIDED BY OUR CUSTOMERS, WHICH MAY BE INACCURATE OR INCOMPLETE,
  RESULTING IN LOST OR DELAYED REVENUES.

     A portion of our lease payments and our film license fees are based upon
financial reporting provided by our customers. If such reporting is inaccurate,
incomplete or withheld, our ability to invoice and receive the proper amount
from our customers in a timely fashion will be impaired. Our contractual audits
may not rectify payments lost or delayed as a result of customers not fulfilling
their contractual requirements with respect to financial reporting.

  OUR NEWEST THEATRE PROJECTION SYSTEM, IMAX MPX, WHICH IS AN IMPORTANT
  COMPONENT OF OUR PLANS TO EXPAND THE NETWORK OF COMMERCIAL IMAX THEATRES, HAS
  NOT YET BEEN INSTALLED IN ANY THEATRES AND COULD PERFORM INADEQUATELY,
  RESULTING IN THE LOSS OF EXISTING AND FUTURE CONTRACTS.

     We depend on our theatre systems technology. In March 2003, we introduced
the IMAX MPX, a new projection system designed for commercial multiplex
operators which, together with IMAX DMR, is an important part of our expansion
plans. While we have signed contracts for the installation of IMAX MPX systems,
no such systems are scheduled to be installed until the first half of 2004 and
while we believe these systems will operate adequately, there are no guarantees
that they will do so. If for some reason a number of the IMAX MPX systems
perform inadequately, it could result in our losing existing contracts and our
inability to sign contracts for IMAX MPX systems in the future, which could
adversely affect our plans to expand the network of commercial IMAX theatres and
to have additional IMAX DMR films released to that network.

                                        21


  WE CONDUCT BUSINESS INTERNATIONALLY WHICH EXPOSES US TO UNCERTAINTIES AND
  RISKS THAT COULD NEGATIVELY AFFECT OUR OPERATIONS AND SALES.

     A significant portion of our sales are made to customers located outside
the United States and Canada. Approximately 47.2%, 35.2% and 36.6% of our
revenues were derived outside of the United States and Canada in 2000, 2001 and
2002, respectively. We expect our international operations to continue to
account for a significant portion of our revenues in the future and plan to
expand into new markets in the future. We do not have significant experience in
operating in certain foreign countries and are subject to the risks associated
with operating in those countries. We currently have installation and sales
activity projected in countries where economies have been unstable in recent
years. The economies of other foreign countries important to our operations
could also suffer slower economic growth or instability in the future. The
following are among the risks that could negatively affect our operations and
sales in foreign markets:

     - new restrictions on access to markets;

     - unusual or burdensome foreign laws or regulatory requirements or
       unexpected changes to those laws or requirements;

     - fluctuations in the value of foreign currency versus the U.S. dollar and
       potential currency devaluations;

     - new tariffs, trade protection measures, import or export licensing
       requirements, trade embargoes and other trade barriers;

     - imposition of foreign exchange controls in such foreign jurisdictions;

     - dependence on foreign distributors and their sales channels;

     - difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations;

     - adverse changes in monetary and/or tax policies;

     - poor recognition of intellectual property rights;

     - inflation;

     - requirements to provide performance bonds and letters of credit to
       international customers to secure system deliveries; and

     - political, economic and social instability in foreign countries.

  WE FACE RISKS IN CONNECTION WITH THE EXPANSION OF OUR BUSINESS IN CHINA AND
  OTHER PARTS OF ASIA.

     The first IMAX projection system in a theatre in China was installed in
December 2001 and seven additional IMAX theatre systems are scheduled to be
installed in China by 2008. We moved our Asian headquarters to Shanghai and
believe that China is an important market for our international expansion plans.
These plans may be unsuccessful in China for a number of reasons including
China's poor recognition of intellectual property rights and its restrictive
regulations regarding the importation of film. Moreover, the geopolitical
instability of the region comprising China, Taiwan, North Korea and South Korea
could result in economic embargoes, disruptions in shipping or even military
hostilities, which could interfere with both the fulfillment of our existing
contracts and our pursuit of additional contracts in China.

     In addition, the recent outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome, or
SARS, which has had a particularly disruptive impact on business in China, Hong
Kong and Singapore, could have a negative effect on our pursuit of business
opportunities in Asia as a re-emergence of SARS could interfere with travel to
and negotiations with parties in that continent.

  THE INTRODUCTION OF NEW PRODUCTS AND TECHNOLOGIES AND CHANGES IN THE WAY OUR
  COMPETITORS OPERATE COULD HARM OUR BUSINESS.

     The out-of-home entertainment industry is very competitive, and we face a
number of challenges. We compete with other large-format film projection system
manufacturers as well as conventional motion picture exhibitors. In addition to
existing competitors, we may also face competition in the future from companies
in the entertainment industry with substantially greater capital resources. We
also face competition from a number of alternative motion picture distribution
channels such as home video, pay-per-view, video-on-demand, DVD, and syndicated
and broadcast television. We also compete for the public's leisure time and
disposable income with other forms of entertainment, including sporting events,
concerts, live theatre and restaurants.

     Furthermore, the out-of-home entertainment industry in general is
undergoing significant changes. Primarily due to technological developments and
changing consumer tastes, numerous companies are developing, and are expected to
continue to develop, new entertainment products for the out-of-home
entertainment industry, which may compete directly with our products.
Competitors may design products which are more attractive to the consumer and/or
more cost effective than ours and may make our products less competitive. The
products that we are currently developing may never be attractive to consumers
or be competitive. As a result of this competition, we could lose market share
as demand for our products declines, which could seriously harm our business and
operating results.

     The motion picture exhibition industry is in the early stages of conversion
from film based media to electronic based media. We are similarly in the very
early stages of developing a digital projection system that can be utilized in
IMAX theatres. As any large scale conversion from film to digital, particularly
in the large-format theatre industry, is most likely years away, it is difficult
to assess the risks for us associated with such a conversion. Such risks could
include the need for us to raise additional capital to finance remanufacturing
of theatre systems and associated conversion costs, which capital may not be
available to us on attractive terms, or at all.

  AN ECONOMIC DOWNTURN COULD MATERIALLY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS BY REDUCING DEMAND
  FOR IMAX THEATRE SYSTEMS AND REVENUE GENERATED FROM BOX OFFICE SALES.

     We depend on the sale and lease of IMAX theatre systems to commercial movie
exhibitors to generate a significant portion of our revenues. Most of our lease
agreements provide for additional revenues based on a percentage of theatre box
office receipts when attendance at an IMAX theatre exceeds a minimum threshold.
Commercial movie exhibitors generate revenues from consumer attendance at their
theatres, which are subject to general political, social and economic conditions
and the willingness of consumers to spend discretionary money at movie theatres.
If theatre attendance declines as a result of a prolonged economic downturn,
commercial movie exhibitors will be less willing to invest capital in new
theatres resulting in a decline in demand for new IMAX theatre systems. In
addition, any decline in attendance at commercial IMAX theatres will reduce the
additional revenues we generate from a percentage of theatre box office
receipts. Institutional exhibitors may also experience a decline in attendance
given general political, social and economic conditions, which may result in
reduced revenues generated from receipts attributed to IMAX theatres at such
institutions and reduced film license fees.

  WE MAY EXPERIENCE ADVERSE EFFECTS DUE TO EXCHANGE RATE FLUCTUATIONS.

     A substantial portion of our revenues is denominated in U.S. dollars, while
a substantial portion of our expenses is denominated in Canadian dollars. We
also generate revenues in Euros and Japanese Yen. From time to time, we enter
into forward contracts to hedge our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations.
However, our strategy may not be successful in reducing our exposure to these
fluctuations. Any material increase in the value of the Canadian dollar in
relation to the U.S. dollar compared to historical levels could have a material
adverse effect on our operating results.

                                        23


  WE ARE SUBJECT TO IMPAIRMENT LOSSES ON OUR ASSETS.

     During the past five years, a substantial number of our theatre systems
were leased to commercial movie exhibitors. During 2000 and 2001, we recorded
significant restructuring costs and asset impairments related to the financial
difficulties of commercial movie exhibitors and other related industry factors.
Similar financial difficulties for commercial movie exhibitors and other
industry factors may reoccur in the future which could result in further
write-downs.

     We amortize our film assets using the individual film forecast method
whereby the costs of film assets are amortized and participation costs are
accrued for each film in the ratio of revenues earned in the current period to
management's estimate of total revenues ultimately expected to be received for
that title. Management regularly reviews and revises when necessary its
estimates of ultimate revenues on a title-by-title basis, which may result in a
change in the rate of amortization of the film assets and write-downs to film
assets. Results of operations in future years depend upon the amortization of
our film assets and may be significantly affected by periodic adjustments in
amortization rates. In 2000 and 2001, we recorded significant impairment charges
against film assets due to reductions in estimates of ultimate future revenues
that resulted in the fair values of some titles being less than their carrying
values. Given the inherent difficulties in producing successful theatrical films
for release in IMAX theatres, and the uncertainties inherent in the estimation
process, additional impairment charges may be necessary in the future.

  WE RELY ON OUR KEY PERSONNEL, AND THE LOSS OF ONE OR MORE OF THOSE PERSONNEL
  COULD HARM OUR ABILITY TO CARRY OUT OUR BUSINESS STRATEGY.

     Our operations and prospects depend in large part on the performance and
continued service of our senior management team. We may not find qualified
replacements for any of these individuals if their services are no longer
available. The loss of the services of one or more members of our senior
management team could adversely affect our ability to effectively pursue our
business strategy.

  OUR ABILITY TO ADEQUATELY PROTECT OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY IS LIMITED, AND
  COMPETITORS MAY MISAPPROPRIATE OUR TECHNOLOGY, WHICH COULD WEAKEN OUR
  COMPETITIVE POSITION.

     We depend on our proprietary knowledge regarding IMAX theatre systems. We
rely principally upon a combination of copyright, trademark, patent and trade
secret laws, restrictions on disclosures and contractual provisions to protect
our proprietary and intellectual property rights. These laws and procedures may
not be adequate to prevent unauthorized parties from attempting to copy or
otherwise obtain our technology or deter others from developing similar
technology, which could weaken our competitive position. The protection provided
to our proprietary technology by the laws of foreign jurisdictions may not
protect us as fully as the laws of Canada or the United States. Some of the
underlying technologies of our products and systems are not covered by patents
or patent applications.

     We have patents issued, provisional patents and patent applications
pending, including those pending for our digital conversion technology, IMAX
DMR. Our patents are filed in the United States often with corresponding patents
or filed applications in other jurisdictions, such as Canada, Japan, Korea,
France, Germany and the United Kingdom. The patents may not be issued or provide
us with any competitive advantages. The patent applications may also be
challenged by third parties. Several of our issued patents in the United States,
Canada and Japan for improvements to IMAX projection systems, IMAX 3D Dome and
sound systems expire between 2008 and 2018. Any claims or litigation initiated
by us to protect our proprietary technology could be time consuming, costly and
divert the attention of our technical and management resources.

                                        24


  WE ARE SUBJECT TO LAWSUITS THAT COULD DIVERT OUR RESOURCES AND RESULT IN THE
  PAYMENT OF SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGES.

     Our industry is characterized by frequent claims and related litigation
regarding breach of contract and related issues. We are subject to a number of
legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of our business.
We cannot assure you that we will succeed in defending any claims, that
judgments will not be entered against us with respect to any litigation or that
reserves we may set aside will be adequate to cover any such judgments. If any
of these actions or proceedings against us is successful, we may be subject to
significant damages awards. In addition, we are the plaintiff in a number of
material lawsuits in which we seek the recovery of substantial payments. We are
incurring significant legal fees in prosecuting these lawsuits, and we may not
ultimately prevail in such lawsuits or be able to collect on such judgments if
we do. In addition, the defense and prosecution of these claims divert the
attention of our management and other personnel for significant periods of time.

     As the largest manufacturer of large-format theatre projection systems in
the world, we have been the subject of anti-trust complaints and investigations
in the past and at present. We may be unsuccessful in defeating the current
claims or potential claims against us, and we may be sued or investigated on
similar grounds in the future.

  BECAUSE WE ARE INCORPORATED IN CANADA, IT MAY BE DIFFICULT FOR YOU TO ENFORCE
  AGAINST US LIABILITIES BASED SOLELY UPON U.S. FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS.

     We are incorporated under the federal laws of Canada, some of our directors
and officers are residents of Canada and a substantial portion of our assets and
the assets of such directors and officers are located outside the United States.
As a result, it may be difficult for United States holders of the notes to
effect service within the United States upon those directors or officers who are
not residents of the United States, or to realize against them or us in the
United States upon judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon the
civil liability under the United States federal securities laws. In addition, it
may be difficult for such holders to bring an original action outside of the
United States against us to enforce liabilities based solely on U.S. federal
securities laws.

                                        25


                                USE OF PROCEEDS

     We will not receive any cash proceeds from the exchange offer. Because we
are exchanging the old notes for the notes, which have substantially identical
terms and evidence the same indebtedness as the old notes, the issuance of the
notes will not result in any increase in our indebtedness. The net proceeds from
the offering of the old notes was $154.0 million, after deducting the initial
purchasers' commissions and offering expenses payable by us. The net proceeds
from the offering of the old notes, together with cash on hand, was used to
purchase and redeem the $152.8 million outstanding principal amount of our
7 7/8% senior notes due 2005, and to pay for all related premiums, fees and
expenses of approximately $3.7 million.

                                 CAPITALIZATION

     The following table sets forth our cash and cash equivalents and
capitalization as at September 30, 2003. Our capitalization is presented:

     - on an actual basis; and

     - on an adjusted basis to reflect the repurchase in October 2003 of $15.7
       million aggregate principal amount of our 7 7/8% senior notes due 2005 in
       exchange for 1,864,077 of our common shares and the issuance and sale of
       the old notes and the application of the net proceeds as described under
       "Use of Proceeds."

---------------

 (1) In accordance with the interpretive guidance of SEC Staff Accounting
     Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101"), "Revenue Recognition in Financial
     Statements," effective January 1, 2000, we recognize revenue on theatre
     system sales and sales-type leases at the time that installation is
     complete. Prior to January 1, 2000, we recognized revenue on theatre
     systems at the time of delivery. Pro forma revenue and net earnings (loss)
     as if SAB 101 had been applied during 1999 would have been $166.6 million
     and $7.7 million, respectively, and during 1998 would have been $144.4
     million and ($17.6 million), respectively. As the SAB 101 adjustment was
     reflected in the statement of operations through a one-time cumulative
     adjustment in 2000, certain line items in this table may reflect a revenue
     transaction twice.

 (2) In circumstances where customers are not in compliance with the terms of
     their leases for theatre systems not yet installed, the leases are in
     default. There is typically deferred revenue associated with these leases,
     representing upfront lease payments received prior to the default. These
     upfront lease payments received are recognized as revenue when we exercise
     our rights to terminate the lease and we are released legally or by virtue
     of an agreement with the customer from our obligations under the lease
     arrangement. Included in systems revenue is $1.2 million, $0.7 million,
     $1.4 million, $5.5 million and $5.1 million in 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001 and
     2002, respectively, and $5.3 million and $7.6 million for the nine months
     ended September 30, 2002 and 2003, respectively, for amounts recognized
     under terminated lease agreements.

 (3) The year ended December 31, 1998 includes a $7.9 million charge related to
     rationalization of our motion simulation division and $19.1 million related
     to the write-down of the value of some of the films in our library. During
     the year ended December 31, 2000, we recognized an $8.6 million charge
     which relates to the write-down of certain films in distribution. Costs of
     goods and services during the year ended December 31, 2001 included charges
     of $4.1 million and $16.5 million relating to a reduced realizable value of
     our inventories and reduced fair values of our film assets, respectively.
     During the year ended December 31, 2002, we also recorded charges of $1.2
     million for inventories, due to a reduced net realizable value, and fixed
     assets of $2.8 million as the carrying value for the fixed assets exceeded
     the discounted future cash flows expected from the assets.

 (4) Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December
     31, 2001 included a $2.6 million non-cash charge for incurred compensation
     resulting from a stock grant issuance.

                                        29


 (5) Amortization of intangibles in 1998 included a $3.3 million charge related
     to the write-off of goodwill associated with the Ridefilm business.
     Effective January 1, 2002, we adopted FAS 142, under which goodwill and
     intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized but are
     reviewed at least annually for impairment. In accordance with FAS 142, the
     effect of this change in accounting principle is reflected prospectively.
     Included in amortization of intangibles is goodwill amortization of $5.9
     million, $2.6 million, $1.8 million and $2.3 million for 1998, 1999, 2000
     and 2001, respectively.

 (6) In 1998, loss (income) from equity-accounted investees included our 50%
     share of the loss of Forum Ride Associates and a provision against the
     remaining carrying value of our equity investment in Forum Ride Associates
     totaling $6.1 million and a $0.5 million provision against an equity
     investment in a motion simulation ride. In 2000, loss (income) from
     equity-accounted investees included a $4.0 million provision related to the
     guarantee of a term loan undertaken by the Forum Ride Associates joint
     venture, the principal business of which is the operation of the "Race for
     Atlantis" ride in Las Vegas.

 (7) In 2000, restructuring costs and asset impairments (recoveries) included
     charges of $11.2 million relating to fixed assets. In 2001, restructuring
     costs and asset impairments (recoveries) includes $16.3 million related to
     efforts to rationalize the business by reducing our overall corporate
     workforce and consolidation of our operations, which included relocating
     our sound-system facility to near Toronto, Canada. In the assessment of the
     assets, we recorded charges of $26.7 million of fixed assets, and $3.3
     million of other assets.

 (8) In 1998, all of our 10% senior notes due 2001 were redeemed. The excess of
     the redemption price over the principal amount of the notes of $2.8 million
     and the write-off of the unamortized deferred financing costs of $0.9
     million resulted in a loss of $3.7 million. During the year ended December
     31, 2001, we and one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries purchased and
     cancelled an aggregate of $70.4 million principal amount of our convertible
     subordinated notes for $13.7 million, consisting of $12.5 million in cash
     from the subsidiary and common shares issued by us valued at $1.2 million.
     We recorded a gain of $55.6 million in connection with this transaction.
     During 2002, we and one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries purchased and
     cancelled an additional aggregate of $20.5 million principal amount of our
     convertible subordinated notes for $8.1 million, consisting of $6.0 million
     in cash from the subsidiary and common shares by us valued at $2.1 million.
     We recorded a gain of $11.9 million, in connection with this transaction.
     For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, we and one of our
     wholly-owned subsidiaries purchased and cancelled an additional aggregate
     of $20.5 million principal amount of our convertible subordinated notes for
     $8.2 million, consisting of $6.1 million in cash from the subsidiary and
     common shares issued by us valued at $2.1 million. We recorded a gain of
     $12.0 million, net of expenses, in connection with this transaction.

 (9) Recovery on (impairment of) long-term investments represents charges of
     $4.1 million and $5.6 million relating to the impairment of certain of our
     long-term investments, for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001,
     respectively.

(10) In 2001, the provision for income taxes included a $41.2 million increase
     in the valuation allowance to reflect uncertainty associated with
     realization of our deferred income tax asset.

(11) Discontinued operations consisted of our Digital Projections subsidiary
     which was acquired in September 1999 and sold in December 2001.

(12) In the year ended December 31, 2000, we recognized a charge of $54.5
     million, net of income tax benefit of $33.4 million, in accordance with the
     interpretive guidance of SAB 101. We also adopted SOP 00-2, "Accounting by
     Producers or Distributors of Film," and recorded a charge of $6.6 million,
     net of income tax benefit of $3.9 million, to reflect the adoption of this
     new pronouncement.

(13) Represents the number of theatre systems which were the subject of sale or
     lease agreements (including joint ventures) we entered into in the periods
     indicated. The number of signings indicated for 1999 includes one theatre
     in which we have an equity interest.

(14) For the purpose of computing the ratios of earnings to fixed charges,
     "earnings" consist of earnings (loss) from continuing operations before
     income taxes and minority interest, loss (income) from equity-accounted
     investees, capitalized interest, amortization of capitalized interest and
     fixed charges.

                                        30


     "Fixed charges" consist of interest expense, amortization of expenses
     related to indebtedness (which are included in interest expense),
     capitalized interest and an estimate of the interest within rental expense,
     deemed to be one-third of rental expense. Due to the losses we incurred in
     2000 and 2001, as well as the shortfall in earnings for the nine months
     ended September 30, 2003, the ratio coverage is less than 1:1. We would
     have had to generate additional earnings of $39.0 million in 2000, $65.1
     million in 2001 and $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30,
     2003 to achieve a ratio of 1:1 in those periods. This table shows how we
     calculate the ratio of earnings to fixed charges.

(15) The following table shows how we calculate the pro forma ratio of earnings
     to fixed charges. The pro forma ratio of earnings to fixed charges reflects
     the effects of the issuance and sale of the old notes and the application
     of the net proceeds as described under "Use of Proceeds" on the ratio of
     earnings to fixed charges for the year ended December 31, 2002 and the nine
     months ended September 30, 2003. Due to the shortfall in earnings for the
     nine months ended September 30, 2003, the pro forma ratio coverage is less
     than 1:1. We would have had to generate additional earnings of $2.9 million
     for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 to achieve a pro forma ratio
     of 1:1 in that period.

                                    BUSINESS

OUR BUSINESS

     We are one of the world's leading entertainment technology companies,
specializing in large-format and three-dimensional, or 3D, film presentations.
IMAX projection systems use the largest commercially available film format,
which allows IMAX theatres to present images of exceptional quality and clarity.
These images, projected on screens that are up to one-hundred feet wide and
eight stories tall, are designed to fill a viewer's peripheral vision and
immerse them in the film. We generate the majority of our revenue through
upfront and recurring payments received in connection with the leasing of our
theatre systems. While many of these theatre systems are located in some of the
world's most prestigious museums and science centers, more recently the growth
in the IMAX network has been most significant at multiplex theatres and other
commercial venues, which we believe is the largest potential market for our
theatre systems.

     Our primary business is the design, manufacture and lease of projection and
sound systems for IMAX theatres. The majority of IMAX theatre systems are
operated by third parties under agreements with us. At September 30, 2003, there
were 239 IMAX theatre systems operating in 36 countries. We are also a producer
and distributor of large-format films and the largest provider of large-format
post-production services. In addition, we engage in other related businesses,
including renting camera equipment for large-format film production and owning
and operating seven IMAX theatres.

THE INDUSTRY

     IMAX created the large-format theatre industry when we were founded in
1967. The large-format theatre industry includes several manufacturers of 5, 8
and 10 perforation, 70mm projection systems. We are the largest participant in
the industry and we estimate that the IMAX theatres in operation represent a
significant majority of the large-format theatres in operation. IMAX theatre
systems exclusively use 15 perforation, 70mm, or 15/70, film, the largest
commercially available film size, which is approximately 10 times larger than
35mm film. Film is measured on the basis of size in terms of millimeters and
perforations. Projectors in conventional theatres use 4 perforation, 35mm film
whereas large-format projectors use film ranging from 5 perforation, 70mm up to
15 perforation, 70mm allowing the use of larger screens and yielding higher
quality images. The size of the film makes 15/70 projection systems difficult to
make and consequently there are very few manufacturers of these projectors. We
estimate that IMAX theatre systems represent almost all of the installed base of
both 15/70 theatre systems and 3D 15/70 film format theatre systems in the
world.

OUR COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE

     We believe that IMAX has a significant competitive advantage because of:

     - Brand -- IMAX is one of the few widely recognized brands in filmed
       entertainment, and the only such brand in large-format theatres.

     - The IMAX Experience -- We believe IMAX theatre systems provide a unique
       and immersive film experience with the highest quality images and sound
       available.

     - Films -- IMAX theatres have exclusive access to our library of 15/70
       format films, the largest such library in the world. They will also have
       exclusive access to Hollywood films converted to 15/70 film format using
       our new and proprietary IMAX DMR technology, such as the last two films
       of the Matrix trilogy.

     - Innovation -- We have a tradition of innovation and continue to invest in
       research and development. In North America, we currently have 43 patents
       issued with 16 more pending. From the first large-format projector to 3D
       projection to IMAX DMR and IMAX MPX, we have a

                                        32


       record of developing new technologies that improve our viewers'
       entertainment experience and increase our customers' profitability.

     - Reliability -- IMAX theatre systems have historical operating uptimes of
       approximately 99.9% based on scheduled shows.

OUR BUSINESS STRATEGY

     We expect growth in our revenue will be primarily driven by new IMAX
theatre system leases to commercial exhibitors. We remain committed to our
historical roots in museums and science centers, but we believe that the size of
that market is relatively limited compared to the potential in the commercial
multiplex market. There are approximately 1,900 multiplexes in North America, of
which fewer than 35 have IMAX theatres, a penetration rate below 2%.
Internationally, the penetration rate is even lower. To expand our theatre
network, we intend to:

     - increase the revenue potential of commercial IMAX theatres and Hollywood
       studios by using our proprietary IMAX DMR technology which converts
       live-action films into IMAX-quality images and sound;

     - reduce the capital and operating costs of leasing an IMAX theatre for
       commercial exhibitors with our IMAX MPX theatre system; and

     - continue to grow in our existing, traditional customer base of
       educational and institutional centers.

  INCREASE REVENUE POTENTIAL OF COMMERCIAL IMAX THEATRES AND HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS

     The motion picture industry is increasingly producing large-scale Hollywood
blockbuster event films, which have proven to be significant revenue generators
worldwide. IMAX DMR allows us to digitally re-master virtually any 35mm
live-action film into IMAX's 15/70 film format at a cost of approximately $2
million to $4 million per film. We developed IMAX DMR to enable IMAX theatres to
become an additional distribution channel for commercial films developed and
produced by Hollywood studios and we believe that this new proprietary
technology will significantly expand the commercially attractive content
available for exclusive release to IMAX theatres and will increase their
revenues. While IMAX DMR gives us the ability to bring previously released
Hollywood classics to the IMAX network, the centerpiece of the IMAX strategy is
the contemporaneous release of event films in IMAX and 35mm theatres, such as
the November 5, 2003 release of The Matrix Revolutions. This allows the IMAX
release to take advantage of the considerable marketing campaigns studios
traditionally launch in connection with their biggest event films. It is our
primary goal that viewers will want to see these types of event films in IMAX
theatres and pay a premium price for the enhanced experience. In the North
American multiplexes that showed The Matrix Reloaded in 35mm and in IMAX's 15/70
film format, the average ticket price for the IMAX screening was $10.68 versus
$8.65 for the 35mm screening. At its release, the average North American ticket
price for the IMAX screening of The Matrix Revolutions was $11.20 versus $8.66
for the 35mm screening. We believe that the meaningful expansion of Hollywood
content available to IMAX theatres will result in increased attendance and
revenue at IMAX theatres and increased demand for IMAX theatre systems. We also
believe that such increased demand for our theatre systems will encourage
studios to release more films to the expanded IMAX theatre network, and that
this additional film product should further increase demand for IMAX theatre
systems.

     The first major studio film released to IMAX theatres, Fantasia/2000: The
IMAX Experience, released by the Walt Disney Company in January 2000, generated
more than $91 million in theatre box office receipts to date and demonstrated
that the IMAX theatre network was a viable distribution network for Hollywood
films. The first film re-mastered with IMAX DMR technology was Universal
Studios' Apollo 13. Apollo 13: The IMAX Experience was released in September
2002, which demonstrated the appeal of the IMAX DMR technology. This was
followed by the release by 20th Century Fox of Star Wars Episode II: Attack of
the Clones -- The IMAX Experience, which generated more revenue per screen in
its opening weekend than any other film in North America during that period. On
April 22, 2003, we

                                        33


announced an agreement with Warner Bros. Pictures to convert The Matrix Reloaded
and The Matrix Revolutions, the last two films of the Matrix trilogy that began
with the 1999 blockbuster film The Matrix, to IMAX's format. The IMAX DMR
version of The Matrix Reloaded ran exclusively on over 70 IMAX screens beginning
June 6, 2003, approximately four weeks after the domestic release of the film to
conventional 35mm theatres. Since the IMAX release, IMAX screens have accounted
for 27% of the film's total box office receipts in North America to October 31,
2003 despite accounting for just 7.3% of the screens exhibiting the film in
North America. On November 5, 2003, The Matrix Revolutions became the first-ever
live-action Hollywood film released simultaneously to both IMAX theatres and
35mm theatres. In North America, the film grossed approximately $3.0 million in
the first five days of its release on 48 IMAX screens, representing
approximately $63,000 in per screen revenue. In addition, on December 18, 2003,
we announced a further agreement with Warner Bros. Pictures to convert Harry
Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, the third installment of the Harry Potter
film series, to IMAX's 15/70 format. The film is scheduled to be released to
35mm theatres and IMAX theatres in June 2004. We believe that these events
position IMAX theatres as a unique and separate release window for Hollywood
films similar to the type created when Hollywood studios began including the pay
TV and home video industries as release windows for their films.

     During the release of The Matrix Reloaded: The IMAX Experience, we
commissioned a third party research firm to quantify consumer response to IMAX
DMR. The research showed that 88% of the patrons were either extremely or very
satisfied with the experience, that 89% intended to recommend seeing the film at
an IMAX theatre and that 31% had never been to an IMAX theatre before. These
results are consistent with our primary goal of ensuring that consumers will
want to see high-profile event films in IMAX theatres and pay a premium price
for the enhanced experience. Early results from research conducted during the
release of The Matrix Revolutions: The IMAX Experience revealed similar
findings.

REDUCE THE CAPITAL AND OPERATING COSTS FOR COMMERCIAL EXHIBITORS

     We have consistently sought to improve the profitability of an IMAX theatre
by reducing theatre capital and operating costs. In the past, we have
successfully reduced our customers' costs by introducing innovations such as the
IMAX SR theatre system, which was designed for smaller markets. Continued
reduction of capital and operating costs remains a focus of our research and
development team. Our most recent achievement has been the development of the
IMAX MPX system, our new lower cost theatre projection system, designed
specifically for use in multiplex auditoriums. The IMAX MPX system reduces the
per-seat capital cost of an IMAX theatre by approximately 35% as compared to the
IMAX SR system and increases the potential market size for IMAX theatres. The
IMAX MPX system also reduces the operating costs required to run an IMAX theatre
by eliminating the need for a specialized projectionist. The IMAX MPX system can
be installed as part of a newly constructed multiplex, as an add-on to an
existing multiplex, or as a retrofit of two existing stadium seat multiplex
auditoriums. We believe that this innovative retrofit option represents a
significant opportunity for commercial operators to both reduce the capital
costs of building an IMAX theatre and improve the profitability of the two
multiplex auditoriums being retrofitted.

     Since its launch, we have entered into sales or lease agreements for nine
IMAX MPX systems in 11 months. The appeal of the IMAX MPX system has extended
beyond the domestic market, with system deals signed in China, Russia and the
Middle East as well as the United States. The first IMAX MPX system is expected
to be installed in the first half of 2004. We believe that the combination of
the IMAX MPX system with our IMAX DMR technology gives us the ability to
significantly grow our commercial theatre network by offering multiplex
exhibitors more and better film options for their theatres and an easier and
more cost-efficient system with which to exhibit those films.

  CONTINUED GROWTH IN OUR EXISTING CUSTOMER SEGMENT

     We continue to sell and lease IMAX theatre systems to educational and
institutional centers, particularly in international markets such as China. The
last two years have seen the successful release and development of numerous
traditional large-format films, particularly 3D films, which continue to perform
                                        34


well in institutional, educational and commercial venues. Our fourth space film,
SPACE STATION, has generated approximately $67 million of gross box office
receipts since its release in April 2002, and continues to generate gross box
office receipts close to $250,000 per week. Our 2002 holiday film, Santa vs. the
Snowman, had a successful run in IMAX theatres during the 2002 holiday season
and was shown on 79 IMAX screens during the 2003 holiday season. James Cameron's
Ghosts of the Abyss, which was released by Disney to IMAX theatres in April
2003, also performed well. We currently have two other notable films in
production or development, including NASCAR The IMAX Experience 3D, scheduled
for release in March 2004, and Magnificent Desolation, a film about the men of
the Apollo missions who walked on the moon, in collaboration with Playtone and
its principals, Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman.

BUSINESS SEGMENTS

  THEATRE SYSTEM

     Our primary products are our large-format theatre systems. All IMAX theatre
systems include a unique rolling loop 15/70 projector that offers superior image
quality and stability; a 6-channel, digital sound system delivering up to 12,000
watts; a screen with a proprietary coating technology; a digital theatre control
system and extensive theatre planning, design and installation services. All
theatre systems also come with a license for the use of the IMAX brand. We
primarily offer four types of these theatre systems. Our GT theatre systems are
for theatres from 300 seats to up to 550 seats and our SR theatre systems
contain 270 to 300 seats. Our recently introduced IMAX MPX system is targeted
for multiplex complexes and IMAX MPX theatres are expected to have approximately
350 seats. All three of these system types come with "flat" screens that have a
minimum of curvature and tilt and can exhibit both 2D and 3D films. We also
produce a fourth category of theatre systems featuring heavily curved and tilted
screens that are used in dome shaped theatres. These theatre systems are
generally 2D only and are popular with our institutional clients.

     Screens in IMAX theatres are as large as one-hundred feet wide and eight
stories tall and we believe are the largest cinema screens in the world. Unlike
standard cinema screens, IMAX screens extend to the edge of a viewer's
peripheral vision to create immersive experiences which, when combined with our
superior sound system, make audiences feel as if they are a part of the
on-screen action in a way that is more intense and exciting than in traditional
theatres, a critical part of The IMAX Experience. Our IMAX 3D theatres further
increase the audience's feeling of immersion in the film by bringing images off
the screen.

     Revenue from theatre systems are our largest source of revenue,
representing 65.4%, 64.5% and 54.3% of our total revenue in 2000, 2001 and 2002,
respectively, and 54.3% and 62.0% of our total revenue for the nine months ended
September 30, 2002 and 2003, respectively. We generally lease our theatre
systems to our clients for initial terms of 10 to 20 years. As part of the
theatre systems leases, our clients make substantial initial rental payments
ranging from $1.0 million to $3.0 million, the majority of which are paid to us
before the theatre system is delivered. After the theatre opens additional
rental payments, generally equal to the greater of 5% to 7% of theatre box
office receipts or a minimum that ranges from $50,000 to $100,000 per theatre,
are due each year. These terms vary in certain cases, particularly for some of
our older theatres. We provide a maintenance-free period for one year and
thereafter provide maintenance service in return for an annual fee that averages
$65,000-$75,000 per year. The additional rental payments and maintenance fees
represent ongoing cash flow for the duration of the lease.

  FILM PRODUCTION AND DISTRIBUTION

     We are a producer and distributor of large-format films. Through our
subsidiary David Keighley Productions 70MM Inc., we are also the largest
provider of large-format post-production services, such as editing, quality
control and developing film prints for both IMAX theatres and other large-format
customers.

                                        35


  OTHER

     Our other sources of revenue primarily consist of IMAX theatres that we
operate and revenue from businesses ancillary to our theatre systems business.
These include the rental of 15/70 cameras and after-market sales of components
for our projector and sound systems.

THE IMAX BRAND

     The IMAX brand is world famous and stands for the highest-quality, most
immersive filmed entertainment that combines stunning images of exceptional
quality and clarity on screens up to one-hundred feet wide and eight stories
tall, our proprietary 6-channel digital sound systems and unique theatre
designs. We believe that like Disney, IMAX is one of the few brands generally
recognized by consumers in filmed entertainment. Our research shows that the
IMAX brand is a significant factor in a consumer's decision to go to an IMAX
theatre. In addition, we believe that our significant brand loyalty among
consumers provides us with a strong, sustainable position in the large-format
theatre industry. The IMAX brand name cuts across geographic and demographic
boundaries.

     With an increasing number of IMAX theatres based in multiplexes and a
recent history of commercially successful films such as Everest, Fantasia/2000:
The IMAX Experience and recent IMAX DMR releases including the Matrix sequels,
IMAX is rapidly increasing its commercial presence. We believe the strength of
the IMAX brand will be an asset as we seek to become a new release window for
Hollywood event films. We believe that people will see the IMAX presentation of
these films as a special, high-quality experience, and will be willing to pay a
premium price for the enhanced experience.

IMAX DMR

     We have developed technology that makes it possible for virtually any 35mm
live-action film to be transformed at a cost of approximately $2 million to $4
million per film into the unparalleled image and sound quality of The IMAX
Experience. This patent-pending, proprietary system, known as IMAX DMR, opens
the IMAX theatre network up to releases from Hollywood's vast library of films
ranging from well-known classics to today's event films. The resulting images
are as large and sharp as the classic IMAX films audiences associate with the
IMAX brand.

     The IMAX DMR process involves the following:

     - scanning, at the highest resolution possible, each individual frame of
       the 35mm film and converting it into a digital image;

     - optimizing the image using proprietary image enhancement tools developed
       and refined over many years;

     - analyzing the information contained within a 35mm frame format and
       enhancing the digital image using techniques such as sharpening, color
       correction, grain removal and the elimination of unsteadiness; and

     - recording the enhanced digital signal onto 15/70 film.

     During the re-mastering process, IMAX's DMR technology introduces no
perceptible digital artifacts and the highly automated system allows the process
to meet rigorous film production schedules. We continue to improve the length of
time it takes to reformat a film with our IMAX DMR technology. Apollo 13 was
re-mastered in 16 weeks, Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones was
re-mastered in eight weeks and The Matrix Reloaded was re-mastered in less than
four weeks. The IMAX DMR conversion of The Matrix Revolutions was done in
parallel with the movie's filming and editing, which is necessary for the
contemporaneous release of an IMAX DMR film.

     For IMAX DMR releases, the original soundtrack of the 35mm film is
re-mastered for IMAX's six-channel loudspeaker system. Unlike conventional
theatre sound systems, IMAX sound systems are uncompressed, full fidelity and
use proprietary loudspeaker systems that ensure every theatre seat is in a

                                        36


good listening position with surround sound that puts audiences in the picture.
With IMAX DMR we can create that immersive experience with clear,
distortion-free soundtracks for films originally produced in 35mm. While we can
only convert 35mm images into IMAX's 15/70 film format in 2D today, we have a
research and development program underway focused on converting live-action 35mm
film to IMAX 3D. However, we currently have the ability to convert computer
generated animation to IMAX 3D and have done so successfully with our 1999
release of Cyberworld.

SALES BACKLOG

     Signed contracts for theatre system leases and sales are listed as sales
backlog prior to the time of revenue recognition. The value of the sales backlog
represents the total value of all signed theatre system sales and sales-type
lease agreements that are expected to be recognized as revenue in the future.
The backlog includes initial rental fees along with the present value of
contractual minimum rents due over the lease term, but excludes maintenance
revenue as well as contingent rents in excess of contractual minimums that might
be received in the future. Sales backlog does not include revenue from theatres
in which we have an equity interest, agreements covered by letters of intent or
conditional theatre commitments. At September 30, 2003, our sales backlog, which
represented contracts for 61 theatre systems, totaled $139.5 million.

MARKETING AND CUSTOMERS

     We market our theatre systems through a direct sales force and marketing
staff located in our offices in Canada, the United States, Europe, Singapore,
Japan and Shanghai. We also use agents and consultants in certain locations,
primarily Asia and South America. Because our clients have real estate
development matters to consider before committing to an IMAX theatre system, the
sales process from initial contact to contract signing can take three months to
a year or longer. Theatre systems are typically installed within 36 months after
the contract is signed.

     We have experienced an increase in the number of commercial theatre
signings and international signings since 1995. The commercial theatre portion
of our theatre network is now our largest component with a total of 60% theatres
opened or in backlog at September 30, 2003. At September 30, 2003, 46% of all
opened and in backlog theatres are for locations outside the United States and
Canada. Our institutional customers include science and natural history museums,
zoos, aquaria and other educational and cultural centers. We also lease our
theatre systems to theme parks, tourist destination sites, fairs and
expositions. At September 30, 2003, no one customer represented more than 5.4%
of our installed base of theatres or more than 13.1% of our backlog.

     The institutional and entertainment destination markets, both domestic and
foreign, provide what we believe to be consistent demand for our theatre
systems. The operators of multiplex theatres have been our fastest growing
customer segment since 1997. The commercial exhibition industry went through
significant financial difficulties in 2000 and 2001, when numerous theatre
chains filed for bankruptcy protection due to over-building of multiplexes and
over-leverage. While this had a significant impact on our business and reported
financial results in 2000 and 2001, most of the companies have now emerged from
such proceedings and have successfully recapitalized. With the emergence of our
commercial strategy featuring IMAX DMR technology and the IMAX MPX system, it is
expected that these exhibitors will be a significant source of growth for us in
the future.

COMPETITION

     The out-of-home entertainment industry is very competitive, and we face a
number of challenges. We compete with a number of manufacturers of large-format
film projection systems, most of which utilize smaller film formats, including
8/70 and 10/70. We believe that IMAX theatre systems deliver an image that is
superior to these smaller film format images. The IMAX theatre network and the
number of 15/70 format films to which we have distribution rights are
substantially larger than those of our competitors, and IMAX DMR reformatted
films are available exclusively to the IMAX theatre network.

                                        37


RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

     We believe that through 36 years of research and development, we have
developed the most technologically advanced and highest-quality theatre systems
in the world. We have extensive knowledge and capabilities in analog and digital
imaging and sound and are leaders in the development of new film technologies
and techniques. We employ more than 22 people in research and development who
work to enhance and maintain our technological skills.

     We have an established record of innovation that has bolstered our leading
industry position by offering enhanced entertainment experiences, reducing the
cost of IMAX exhibition and serving as a barrier-to-entry to potential
competitors. We introduced the revolutionary rolling loop projection system. The
key to the IMAX projector's superior performance and reliability is our unique
"rolling loop" film movement. The rolling loop advances the film horizontally in
a smooth, wave-like motion, which enhances the stability of the image and
greatly reduces wear on the film. In addition, we introduced the IMAX SR
projector, which was designed to fit in small theatre spaces while still fully
delivering The IMAX Experience, and IMAX MPX system, designed especially for
multiplex theatre operators, which lowers the capital and operating costs of an
IMAX theatre. Other notable innovations include our Personal Sound Environment,
a sound technology compatible with 3D viewing; SANDDE, a 3D animation system
using a magnetic wand; and the large-format industry's first laser film
recorder, which transfers digital images files onto film at much greater speed
and quality than the prior technology and is an important link to our IMAX DMR
strategy.

     IMAX DMR provides the means to convert Hollywood's vast library of films as
well as new blockbuster releases, and since the invention of the rolling loop
15/70 projector, it may prove to be our most important innovation.

MANUFACTURING AND SERVICE

     We assemble our projection systems at our Corporate Headquarters and
Technology Center in Mississauga, Canada (just outside Toronto). Most of the
components for our theatre systems are purchased from outside vendors. We
develop and design all the key elements for the proprietary technology involved
in our projector and camera systems. Fabrication of these components is then
subcontracted to a group of pre-qualified suppliers. Manufacture and supply
contracts are signed for the delivery of components on an order-by-order basis.

     We believe the quality of our theatre systems is extremely important to our
customers, and we provide key services and support functions for the IMAX
theatre network and for filmmakers. To support the IMAX theatre network, we have
personnel stationed in major markets who provide periodic and emergency service
and maintenance on existing theatre systems throughout the world. Our personnel
typically visit each theatre every three months to service the projection and
sound systems. We also provide theatre design expertise for both the visual and
audio aspects of the theatre, as well as theatre system installation supervision
and equipment training. IMAX theatre systems have had historical operating
uptimes of approximately 99.9% based on scheduled shows.

PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS

     Our inventions cover various aspects of our proprietary technology and many
are protected by patents or patent applications filed throughout the world, most
significantly in the United States, Canada, Japan, Korea, France, Germany and
the United Kingdom. The subject matter covered by these patents and applications
encompasses electronic circuitry and mechanisms employed in film projectors and
projection systems (including 3D projection systems) and a method for
synchronizing digital data systems. We have been diligent in the protection of
our proprietary interests.

     In North America, we currently hold 43 patents and have 16 patents pending.
We have corresponding patents or filed applications in many countries throughout
the world.

                               THE EXCHANGE OFFER

GENERAL

     In connection with the issuance of the old notes, we and the subsidiary
guarantors entered into a registration rights agreement, dated December 4, 2003,
with the initial purchasers of the old notes. The following contains a summary
of the provisions of the registration rights agreement. It does not contain all
of the information that may be important to you. We refer you to the
registration rights agreement, which has been filed as an exhibit to the
registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

     Under the registration rights agreement, we and the subsidiary guarantors
have agreed to (1) file with the SEC the registration statement of which this
prospectus is a part with respect to a registered offer to exchange the old
notes for the notes, (2) use reasonable best efforts to have the registration
statement declared effective at the earliest possible time and (3) use
reasonable best efforts to complete the exchange offer within 30 business days
after the registration statement is declared effective. We will keep the
exchange offer open for the period required by applicable law, but in any event
for at least 20 business days after the date notice of the exchange offer is
mailed to holders of the old notes. The exchange offer being made hereby, if
commenced and consummated within the time periods described in this paragraph,
will satisfy these requirements under the registration rights agreement.

     Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this prospectus
and in the letter of transmittal, all old notes validly tendered and not
withdrawn prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date will be
accepted for exchange. Notes will be issued in exchange for an equal principal
amount of outstanding old notes accepted in the exchange offer. Old notes may be
tendered only in integral multiples of $1,000. This prospectus, together with
the letter of transmittal, is being sent to all holders as of           , 2004.
The exchange offer is not conditioned upon any minimum principal amount of old
notes being tendered for exchange. However, the obligation to accept old notes
for exchange pursuant to the exchange offer is subject to certain customary
conditions as set forth herein under "--Conditions."

     Old notes shall be deemed to have been accepted as validly tendered when,
as and if we have given oral or written notice thereof to U.S. Bank National
Association, the exchange agent. The exchange agent will act as agent for the
tendering holders of old notes for the purposes of receiving the notes and
delivering notes to such holders.

     Based on interpretations by the Staff of the SEC as set forth in no-action
letters issued to third parties (including Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation
(available May 13, 1988), Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated (available June 5,
1991), K-III Communications Corporation (available May 14, 1993) and Shearman &
Sterling (available July 2, 1993)), we believe that the notes issued pursuant to
the exchange offer may be offered for resale, resold and otherwise transferred
by any holder thereof (other than any such holder that is a broker-dealer or an
"affiliate" of us within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act)
without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of
the Securities Act, provided that:

     - such notes are acquired in the ordinary course of business;

     - at the time of the commencement of the exchange offer such holder is not
       participating or engaged in, does not intend to participate or engage in,
       and has no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate
       in, a distribution of such notes; and

     - such holder is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, a
       distribution of such notes.

     We have not sought, and do not intend to seek, a no-action letter from the
SEC with respect to the effects of the exchange offer, and we cannot assure you
that the Staff of the SEC would make a similar determination with respect to the
notes as it has in such no-action letters.

                                        43


     By tendering old notes in exchange for notes and executing the letter of
transmittal, each holder will represent to us that:

     - any notes to be received by it will be acquired in the ordinary course of
       business;

     - it has no arrangements or understandings with any person to participate
       in the distribution of the old notes or notes within the meaning of the
       Securities Act; and

     - it is not our "affiliate" as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities
       Act.

     If such holder is a broker-dealer, it will also be required to represent
that the old notes were acquired as a result of market-making activities or
other trading activities and that it will deliver a prospectus in connection
with any resale of notes. See "Plan of Distribution." Each holder, whether or
not it is a broker-dealer, shall also represent that it is not acting on behalf
of any person that could not truthfully make any of the foregoing
representations contained in this paragraph. If a holder of old notes is unable
to make the foregoing representations, such holder may not rely on the
applicable interpretations of the Staff of the SEC and must comply with the
registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in
connection with any secondary resale transaction unless such sale is made
pursuant to an exemption from such requirements.

     Each broker-dealer that receives notes for its own account in exchange for
old notes where such notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of
market making activity or other trading activity, must acknowledge that it will
deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act and that it
has not entered into any arrangement or understanding with us or an affiliate of
ours to distribute the notes in connection with any resale of such notes. See
"Plan of Distribution."

     Upon consummation of the exchange offer, any old notes not tendered will
remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest but, subject to certain
limited exceptions, holders of old notes who do not exchange their old notes for
notes in the exchange offer will no longer be entitled to registration rights
and will not be able to offer or sell their old notes, unless such old notes are
subsequently registered under the Securities Act, except pursuant to an
exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the Securities Act and
applicable state securities laws. Subject to limited exceptions, we will have no
obligation to effect a subsequent registration of the old notes.

EXPIRATION DATE; EXTENSIONS; AMENDMENTS; TERMINATION

     The expiration date shall be           , 2004 unless we, in our sole
discretion, extend the exchange offer, in which case the expiration date shall
be the latest date to which the exchange offer is extended.

     To extend the expiration date, we will notify the exchange agent of any
extension by oral or written notice and will notify the holders of old notes by
means of a press release or other public announcement prior to 9:00 a.m., New
York City time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled
expiration date. Such announcement may state that we are extending the exchange
offer for a specified period of time.

     We reserve the right:

     - to delay acceptance of any old notes, to extend the exchange offer or to
       terminate the exchange offer and not permit acceptance of old notes not
       previously accepted if any of the conditions set forth under
       "-- Conditions" shall have occurred and shall not have been waived by us
       prior to the expiration date, by giving oral or written notice of such
       delay, extension or termination to the exchange agent; or

     - to amend the terms of the exchange offer in any manner deemed by us to be
       advantageous to the holders of the old notes.

     Any such delay in acceptance, extension, termination or amendment will be
followed as promptly as practicable by oral or written notice to the exchange
agent. If the exchange offer is amended in a manner

                                        44


determined by us to constitute a material change, we will disclose such
amendment by means of a prospectus supplement.

     Without limiting the manner in which we may choose to make public
announcement of any delay, extension, amendment or termination of the exchange
offer, we shall have no obligations to publish, advertise, or otherwise
communicate any such public announcement, other than by making a timely release
to an appropriate news agency.

INTEREST ON THE NOTES

     The notes will accrue interest at the rate of 9 5/8% per annum from the
last interest payment date on which interest was paid on the old notes
surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid on such old
notes, from the issue date of such old notes, provided, that if old notes are
surrendered for exchange on or after a record date for an interest payment date
that will occur on or after the date of such exchange and as to which interest
will be paid, interest on the new notes received in exchange therefor will
accrue from the date of such interest payment date. Interest on the notes is
payable on June 1 and December 1, beginning on June 1, 2004.

PROCEDURES FOR TENDERING

     To tender in the exchange offer, a holder must complete, sign and date the
letter of transmittal, or a facsimile thereof, have the signatures thereon
guaranteed if required by the letter of transmittal, and mail or otherwise
deliver such letter of transmittal or such facsimile, together with any other
required documents, to the exchange agent prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City
time, on the expiration date. In addition, either:

     - certificates of such old notes must be received by the exchange agent
       along with the letter of transmittal; or

     - a timely confirmation of a book-entry transfer of such old notes, if such
       procedure is available, into the exchange agent's account at the
       book-entry transfer facility, The Depository Trust Company, pursuant to
       the procedure for book-entry transfer described below, must be received
       by the exchange agent prior to the expiration date with the applicable
       letter of transmittal; or

     - the holder must comply with the guaranteed delivery procedures described
       below.

     The method of delivery of old notes, letters of transmittal and all other
required documents is at the election and risk of the noteholders. If such
delivery is by mail, it is recommended that registered mail, properly insured,
with return receipt requested, be used. In all cases, sufficient time should be
allowed to assure timely delivery. No old notes, letters of transmittal or other
required documents should be sent to us. Delivery of all old notes, if
applicable, letters of transmittal and other documents must be made to the
exchange agent at its address set forth in the letter of transmittal. Holders
may also request their respective brokers, dealers, commercial banks, trust
companies or nominees to effect such tender for such holders.

     The tender by a holder of old notes will constitute an agreement between
such holder and us in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions
set forth herein and in the applicable letter of transmittal. Any beneficial
owner whose old notes are registered in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial
bank, trust company or other nominee and who wishes to tender should contact
such registered holder promptly and instruct such registered holder to tender on
its behalf.

     Signatures on a letter of transmittal or a notice of withdrawal, as the
case may be, must be guaranteed by any member firm of a registered national
securities exchange or of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.,
a commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the
United States or an "eligible guarantor" institution within the meaning of Rule
17Ad-15 under the Exchange Act, or an eligible institution unless the old notes
tendered pursuant thereto are tendered (1) by

                                        45


a registered holder of old notes who has not completed the box entitled "Special
Issuance Instructions" or "Special Delivery Instructions" on the letter of
transmittal or (2) for the account of an eligible institution.

     If a letter of transmittal is signed by trustees, executors,
administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations or others
acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, such person should so indicate
when signing, and unless waived by us, evidence satisfactory to us of their
authority to so act must be submitted with such letter of transmittal.

     All questions as to the validity, form, eligibility, time of receipt and
withdrawal of the tendered old notes will be determined by us in our sole
discretion, which determination will be final and binding. We reserve the
absolute right to reject any and all old notes not properly tendered or any old
notes which, if accepted, would, in the opinion of counsel for us, be unlawful.
We also reserve the absolute right to waive any irregularities or conditions of
tender as to particular old notes. Our interpretation of the terms and
conditions of the exchange offer, including the instructions in the letter of
transmittal, will be final and binding on all parties. Unless waived, any
defects or irregularities in connection with tenders of old notes must be cured
within such time as we shall determine. Neither we, the exchange agent nor any
other person shall be under any duty to give notification of defects or
irregularities with respect to tenders of old notes, nor shall any of them incur
any liability for failure to give such notification. Tenders of old notes will
not be deemed to have been made until such irregularities have been cured or
waived. Any old note received by the exchange agent that is not properly
tendered and as to which the defects or irregularities have not been cured or
waived will be returned without cost to such holder by the exchange agent,
unless otherwise provided in the letter of transmittal, promptly following the
expiration date.

     In addition, we reserve the right, in our sole discretion, subject to the
provisions of the indenture pursuant to which the notes are issued:

     - to purchase or make offers for any old notes that remain outstanding
       subsequent to the expiration date or, as described under "-- Conditions,"
       to terminate the exchange offer;

     - to redeem old notes as a whole or in part at any time and from time to
       time, as described under "Description of the Notes -- Optional
       Redemption;" and

     - to the extent permitted under applicable law, to purchase old notes in
       the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise.

     The terms of any such purchases or offers could differ from the terms of
the exchange offer.

ACCEPTANCE OF OLD NOTES FOR EXCHANGE; DELIVERY OF NOTES

     Upon satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions to the exchange offer,
all old notes properly tendered will be accepted promptly as practicable after
the expiration date, and the notes will be issued promptly as practicable after
acceptance of the old notes. See "-- Conditions." For purposes of the exchange
offer, old notes shall be deemed to have been accepted as validly tendered for
exchange when, as and if we have given oral or written notice thereof to the
exchange agent. For each old note accepted for exchange, the holder of such old
note will receive a new note having a principal amount equal to that of the
surrendered old note.

     In all cases, issuance of notes for old notes that are accepted for
exchange pursuant to the exchange offer will be made only after timely receipt
by the exchange agent of:

     - certificates for such old notes or a timely book-entry confirmation of
       such old notes into the exchange agent's account at the book-entry
       transfer facility;

     - a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal; and

     - all other required documents.

     If any tendered old notes are not accepted for any reason described in the
terms and conditions of the exchange offer, such unaccepted or such nonexchanged
old notes will be returned promptly without

                                        46


expense to the tendering holder thereof (if in certificated form) or credited to
an account maintained with such book-entry transfer facility after the
expiration or termination of the exchange offer.

BOOK-ENTRY TRANSFER

     The exchange agent has established an account with respect to the old notes
at the book-entry transfer facility for purposes of the exchange offer. Any
financial institution that is a participant in the book-entry transfer
facility's systems may make book-entry delivery of old notes by causing the
book-entry transfer facility to transfer such old notes into the exchange
agent's account at the book-entry transfer facility in accordance with such
book-entry transfer facility's procedures for transfer. However, although
delivery of old notes may be effected through book-entry transfer at the
book-entry transfer facility, the letter of transmittal or facsimile thereof
with any required signature guarantees and any other required documents must, in
any case, be transmitted to and received by the exchange agent at the address
set forth in the letter of transmittal on or prior to the expiration date or the
guaranteed delivery procedures described below must be complied with.

EXCHANGING BOOK-ENTRY NOTES

     The exchange agent and the book-entry transfer facility have confirmed that
any financial institution that is a participant in the book-entry transfer
facility may utilize the book-entry transfer facility Automated Tender Offer
Program, or ATOP, procedures to tender old notes.

     Any participant in the book-entry transfer facility may make book-entry
delivery of old notes by causing the book-entry transfer facility to transfer
such old notes into the exchange agent's account in accordance with the
book-entry transfer facility's ATOP procedures for transfer. However, the
exchange for the old notes so tendered will only be made after a book-entry
confirmation of the book-entry transfer of old notes into the exchange agent's
account, and timely receipt by the exchange agent of an agent's message and any
other documents required by the letter of transmittal. The term "agent's
message" means a message, transmitted by the book-entry transfer facility and
received by the exchange agent and forming part of a book-entry confirmation,
which states that the book-entry transfer facility has received an express
acknowledgment from a participant tendering old notes that are the subject of
such book-entry confirmation that such participant has received and agrees to be
bound by the terms of the letter of transmittal, and that we may enforce such
agreement against such participant.

GUARANTEED DELIVERY PROCEDURES

     Holders of old notes whose certificates are not immediately available, or
who are unable to deliver the required confirmations and other documents in a
timely manner on or prior to the expiration date, may effect a tender if:

     - the tender is made through an eligible institution;

     - prior to the expiration date, the exchange agent receives by facsimile
       transmission, mail or hand delivery from such eligible institution a
       properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal and notice of
       guaranteed delivery, substantially in the form provided by us, which:

        (i) sets forth the name and address of the holder of old notes and the
            amount of old notes tendered;

        (ii) states that the tender is being made thereby; and

        (iii) guarantees that within three New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE,
              trading days after the date of execution of the notice of
              guaranteed delivery, the certificates for all physically tendered
              old notes, in proper form for transfer, or a book-entry
              confirmation, as the case may be, and any other documents required
              by the letter of transmittal will be deposited by the eligible
              institution with the exchange agent; and

                                        47


     - the certificates for all physically tendered old notes, in proper form
       for transfer, or a book-entry confirmation, as the case may be, and all
       other documents required by the letter of transmittal are received by the
       exchange agent within three NYSE trading days after the date of execution
       of the notice of guaranteed delivery.

WITHDRAWAL OF TENDERS

     Tenders of old notes may be withdrawn at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New
York City time, on the expiration date.

     For a withdrawal to be effective, a written or facsimile transmission
notice of withdrawal must be received by the exchange agent prior to 5:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the expiration date at the address set forth in the
letter of transmittal. Any such notice of withdrawal must:

     - specify the name of the person having tendered the old notes to be
       withdrawn;

     - identify the old notes to be withdrawn, including the principal amount of
       such old notes;

     - in the case of old notes tendered by book-entry transfer, specify the
       number of the account at the book-entry transfer facility from which the
       old notes were tendered and specify the name and number of the account at
       the book-entry transfer facility to be credited with the withdrawn old
       notes and otherwise comply with the procedures of such facility;

     - contain a statement that such holder is withdrawing its election to have
       such old notes exchanged;

     - be signed by the holder in the same manner as the original signature on
       the letter of transmittal by which such old notes were tendered,
       including any required signature guarantees, or be accompanied by
       documents of transfer to have the trustee with respect to the old notes
       register the transfer of such old notes in the name of the person
       withdrawing the tender; and

     - specify the name in which such old notes are registered, if different
       from the person who tendered such old notes.

     All questions as to the validity, form, eligibility and time of receipt of
such notice will be determined by us, which determination shall be final and
binding on all parties. Any old notes so withdrawn will be deemed not to have
been validly tendered for exchange for purposes of the exchange offer. Any old
notes which have been tendered for exchange but which are not exchanged for any
reason will be returned to the tendering holder thereof without cost to such
holder, in the case of physically tendered old notes, or credited to an account
maintained with the book-entry transfer facility for the old notes promptly
after withdrawal, rejection of tender or termination of the exchange offer.
Properly withdrawn old notes may be retendered by following one of the
procedures described under "-- Procedures for Tendering" and "-- Book-Entry
Transfer" above at any time on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the
expiration date.

CONDITIONS

     Notwithstanding any other provision of the exchange offer, we shall not be
required to accept for exchange, or to issue notes in exchange for, any old
notes and may terminate or amend the exchange offer if at any time prior to 5:00
p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date, we determine that the exchange
offer violates applicable law, any applicable interpretation of the Staff of the
SEC or any order of any governmental agency or court of competent jurisdiction.

     The foregoing conditions are for our sole benefit and may be asserted by us
regardless of the circumstances giving rise to any such condition or may be
waived by us in whole or in part at any time and from time to time in our
reasonable discretion. All such conditions must be satisfied or waived by us, as
applicable, at or before the expiration of the exchange offer.

     In addition, we will not accept for exchange any old notes tendered, and no
notes will be issued in exchange for any such old notes, if at such time any
stop order shall be threatened or in effect with
                                        48


respect to the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a
part or the qualification of the indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of
1939, as amended. We are required to use our reasonable best efforts to obtain
the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of the registration
statement at the earliest possible time.

EXCHANGE AGENT

     U.S. Bank National Association has been appointed as exchange agent for the
exchange offer. Questions and requests for assistance and requests for
additional copies of this prospectus or of the letter of transmittal should be
directed to the exchange agent as provided in the letter of transmittal.

FEES AND EXPENSES

     The expenses of soliciting tenders pursuant to the exchange offer will be
borne by us. The principal solicitation for tenders pursuant to the exchange
offer is being made by mail; however, additional solicitations may be made by
telegraph, telephone, telecopy or in person by our officers and regular
employees.

     We will not make any payments to brokers, dealers or other persons
soliciting acceptances of the exchange offer. We will, however, pay the exchange
agent reasonable and customary fees for its services and will reimburse the
exchange agent for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection
therewith. We may also pay brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and
fiduciaries the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in forwarding
copies of the prospectus and related documents to the beneficial owners of the
old notes, and in handling or forwarding tenders for exchange.

     The expenses to be incurred by us in connection with the exchange offer
will be paid by us, including fees and expenses of the exchange agent and
trustee and accounting, legal, printing and related fees and expenses.

     We will pay all transfer taxes, if any, applicable to the exchange of old
notes pursuant to the exchange offer. If, however, notes or old notes for
principal amounts not tendered or accepted for exchange are to be registered or
issued in the name of any person other than the registered holder of the old
notes tendered, or if tendered old notes are registered in the name of any
person other than the person signing the letter of transmittal, or if a transfer
tax is imposed for any reason other than the exchange of old notes pursuant to
the exchange offer, then the amount of any such transfer taxes imposed on the
registered holder or any other persons will be payable by the tendering holder.
If satisfactory evidence of payment of such taxes or exemption therefrom is not
submitted with the letter of transmittal, the amount of such transfer taxes will
be billed directly to such tendering holder.

CONSEQUENCES OF FAILURE TO EXCHANGE

     Holders of old notes who do not exchange their old notes for notes pursuant
to the exchange offer will continue to be subject to the restrictions on
transfer of such old notes as set forth in the legend thereon as a consequence
of the issuance of the old notes pursuant to exemptions from, or in transactions
not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and
applicable state securities laws. The old notes may not be offered, sold or
otherwise transferred, except in compliance with the registration requirements
of the Securities Act, pursuant to an exemption from registration under the
Securities Act or in a transaction not subject to the registration requirements
of the Securities Act, and in compliance with applicable state securities laws.
We do not currently anticipate that we will register the old notes under the
Securities Act. To the extent that old notes are tendered and accepted in the
exchange offer, the trading market for untendered and tendered but unaccepted
old notes could be adversely affected.

                       DESCRIPTION OF NEW CREDIT FACILITY

     On February 6, 2004, we entered into a loan agreement for a secured
revolving credit facility with Congress Financial Corporation (Canada). The new
credit facility is a three-year revolving credit facility with yearly renewal
options, permitting maximum aggregate borrowings of $20.0 million, subject to a
borrowing base based on the accounts receivable and certain reserves. Borrowings
under the new credit facility are available by U.S. prime rate loans, Canadian
prime rate loans, Libor rate loans and letters of credit. Interest under the
credit facility will be charged on a sliding scale that depends on the manner of
borrowing and the level of excess availability.

     IMAX Corporation is the borrower under the new credit facility, which is
guaranteed by IMAX U.S.A. Inc., IMAX II U.S.A. Inc. and 1329507 Ontario Inc.,
which holds title, as nominee, to the real estate owned by us in Mississauga,
Ontario. The new credit facility is secured by a first priority security
interest in all of the current assets of IMAX Corporation and the aforementioned
guarantors, including IMAX Corporation's ownership interest in its subsidiaries.

     The new credit facility contains typical affirmative and negative
covenants, including covenants that restrict our ability to:

     - incur certain additional indebtedness;

     - make certain loans, investments or guarantees;

     - pay dividends;

     - make certain asset sales;

     - incur certain liens or other encumbrances;

     - conduct certain transactions with affiliates; and

     - engage in certain consolidation or amalgamation transactions, or
       dissolve.

     In addition, the new credit facility contains customary events of default,
including upon an acquisition or a change of control that has a material adverse
effect on our financial condition.

                            DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

     Set forth below is a summary of certain provisions of the new notes offered
pursuant to this prospectus (the "Notes"). The Notes will be issued pursuant to
an indenture (the "Indenture"), dated as of December 4, 2003, by and among the
Company, the Guarantors and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the
"Trustee"). The following summaries of certain provisions of the Indenture and
are summaries only, do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their
entirety by reference to all of the provisions of the Indenture. Capitalized
terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings
assigned to them in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by
reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "Trust Indenture
Act"). Wherever particular provisions of the Indenture are referred to in this
summary, such provisions are incorporated by reference as a part of the
statements made and such statements are qualified in their entirety by such
reference. A copy of the Indenture is filed as an exhibit to the registration
statement of which this prospectus forms a part and may be obtained from the
Trustee upon request. For purposes of this summary, the term "Company" refers
only to IMAX Corporation and not to any of its subsidiaries.

     The form and terms of the Notes are substantially identical to the terms of
the old notes, and evidence the same indebtedness as the old notes, except that
the Notes:

     - will be registered under the Securities Act, and, consequently, will be
       freely tradeable by persons not affiliated with us;

     - will not bear any legend restricting transfer under the Securities Act;

     - will not be entitled to the rights which are applicable to the old notes
       under the registration rights agreement;

     - will not contain provisions relating to the payment of special interest
       under circumstances related to the timing of the exchange offer; and

     - will bear a different CUSIP number from the old notes.

     The Notes will be issued solely in exchange for an equal principal amount
of the old notes. As of the date of this prospectus, $160.0 million aggregate
principal amount of the old notes is outstanding.

GENERAL

     On December 4, 2003, IMAX Corporation issued $160,000,000 aggregate
principal amount of old notes due December 1, 2010. Pursuant to this prospectus,
IMAX Corporation will issue up to $160,000,000 aggregate principal amount of
Notes due December 1, 2010 in the exchange offer.

     The Notes are senior, unsecured, general obligations of the Company,
ranking pari passu in right of payment with all other senior, unsecured
obligations of the Company. We will initially issue $160.0 million aggregate
principal amount of Notes, which will mature on December 1, 2010. The Indenture
provides, in addition to the $160.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes
issued on the Issue Date, for the issuance of additional Notes having identical
terms and conditions to the Notes offered hereby (the "Additional Notes"),
subject to compliance with the terms of the Indenture, including the covenant
"Limitation on Incurrence of Additional Indebtedness." The aggregate principal
amount of Notes and Additional Notes will be unlimited in aggregate principal
amount outstanding. Any such Additional Notes would be issued on the same terms
as the Notes and would constitute part of the same series of securities as the
Notes and would vote together as one series on all matters with respect to the
Notes. All references to Notes herein includes the Additional Notes, except as
stated otherwise. The Notes will be issued only in fully registered form,
without coupons, in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof.

     The term "Subsidiaries," as used herein, does not include Unrestricted
Subsidiaries. As of the date of the Indenture, none of our Subsidiaries were
Unrestricted Subsidiaries. However, under certain circumstances, we will be able
to designate current or future Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries.
Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to the restrictive covenants set
forth in the Indenture.

                                        51


     The Notes will bear interest at the rate of 9 5/8% per annum from December
4, 2003 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been
paid or provided for, payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each
year, commencing June 1, 2004, to the persons in whose names such Notes are
registered at the close of business on the May 15 or November 15 immediately
preceding such Interest Payment Date. The Notes will bear interest on overdue
principal and premium, if any, and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue
interest at the rate of 10 5/8% per annum. Interest will be calculated on the
basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

     Principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes will be payable,
and the Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or exchange, at the
office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose, which office or
agency shall be maintained in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York,
except as set forth below. At the option of the Company, payment of interest may
be made by check mailed to the Holders of the Notes at the addresses set forth
upon the registry books of the Company. No service charge will be made for any
registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Company may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge
payable in connection therewith. Until otherwise designated by the Company, the
Company's office or agency will be the corporate trust office of the Trustee
presently located at the office of the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The
City of New York.

NOTE GUARANTEES

     The Notes will be guaranteed, jointly and severally, by all of the North
American Subsidiaries of the Company. Each Note Guarantee will be a general
unsecured obligation of the Guarantor and will be pari passu in right of payment
with any future unsecured, unsubordinated Indebtedness of the Guarantor. The
obligations of each Guarantor under its Note Guarantee will be limited as
necessary to prevent that Note Guarantee from constituting a fraudulent
conveyance under applicable law. See "Risk Factors -- Risks Related to the
Notes -- Applicable statutes allow courts, under specific circumstances, to void
the guarantees of the notes provided by certain of our subsidiaries."

     If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries acquires or creates another North
American Subsidiary on or after the date of the Indenture, then that newly
acquired or created North American Subsidiary must become a Guarantor and
execute a supplemental indenture.

OPTIONAL REDEMPTION

     The Company will not have the right to redeem any Notes prior to December
1, 2007. The Notes will be redeemable for cash at the option of the Company, in
whole or in part, at any time on or after December 1, 2007, upon not less than
30 days nor more than 60 days notice to each holder of Notes, at the following
redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount) if redeemed
during the 12-month period commencing December 1 of the years indicated below,
in each case (subject to the right of Holders of record on a Record Date to
receive interest due but not yet paid on an Interest Payment Date that is on or
prior to such Redemption Date) together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon
to the Redemption Date:



YEAR                                                          PERCENTAGE
----                                                          ----------
                                                           
2007........................................................   104.813%
2008........................................................   102.406%
2009 and thereafter.........................................   100.000%


     Until December 1, 2006 upon a Qualified Equity Offering, up to 35% of the
aggregate principal amount of the Notes issued pursuant to the Indenture may be
redeemed at the option of the Company within 90 days of such Qualified Equity
Offering, on not less than 30 days, but not more than 60 days, notice to each
Holder of the Notes to be redeemed, with cash from the Net Cash Proceeds of such
Qualified Equity Offering, at 109.625% of the principal amount thereof (subject
to the right of Holders of

                                        52


record on a Record Date to receive interest due but not yet paid on an Interest
Payment Date that is on or prior to such Redemption Date) together with accrued
and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption; provided, however, that
immediately following such redemption not less than 65% of the aggregate
principal amount of the Notes issued on the Issue Date remain outstanding.

     The Company also may, at its option, redeem the Notes, in whole but not in
part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes,
together with accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, if the Company
has become or would become obligated to pay, on the next date on which any
amount would be payable under or with respect to the Notes, any Additional
Amounts as a result of any change in or amendment to the laws (or any
regulations promulgated thereunder) of Canada (or any political subdivision or
taxing authority thereof or therein), or any change in or amendment to any
official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws or
regulations, which change or amendment is announced or becomes effective on or
after November 19, 2003. See "-- Additional Amounts."

     In the case of a partial redemption, the Trustee shall select the Notes or
portions thereof for redemption on a pro rata basis, by lot or in such other
manner it deems appropriate and fair. The Notes may be redeemed in part in
multiples of $1,000 only.

     The Notes will not have the benefit of any sinking fund.

     Notice of any redemption will be sent, by first class mail, at least 30
days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption to the
Holder of each Note to be redeemed to such Holder's last address as then shown
upon the registry books of the Company. Any notice which relates to a Note to be
redeemed in part only must state the portion of the principal amount equal to
the unredeemed portion thereof and must state that on and after the date of
redemption, upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in a principal
amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued. On and after the
date of redemption, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions
thereof called for redemption, unless the Company defaults in the payment
thereof.

CERTAIN COVENANTS

  OFFER TO REPURCHASE NOTES UPON A CHANGE OF CONTROL

     The Indenture provides that in the event that a Change of Control has
occurred, the Company shall make an irrevocable and unconditional offer (the
"Change of Control Offer") to repurchase all or any part of any Notes then
outstanding (provided, that the principal amount of such Notes must be $1,000 or
an integral multiple thereof) on a date (the "Change of Control Purchase Date")
that is no later than 60 Business Days after the occurrence of such Change of
Control, at a cash price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof (the
"Change of Control Purchase Price"), together with accrued and unpaid interest
to the Change of Control Purchase Date. The Change of Control Offer shall be
made within 10 Business Days following a Change of Control and shall remain open
for 30 Business Days following its commencement (the "Change of Control Offer
Period"). Upon expiration of the Change of Control Offer Period, the Company
promptly shall purchase all Notes properly tendered in response to the Change of
Control Offer.

     As used herein, a "Change of Control" means (i) any merger, amalgamation or
consolidation of the Company with or into any person or any sale, lease transfer
or other conveyance, whether direct or indirect, of all or substantially all of
the assets of the Company, on a consolidated basis, in one transaction or a
series of related transactions, if, immediately after giving effect to such
transaction(s), any "person" or "group" (as such terms are used for purposes of
Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act, whether or not applicable) (other
than an Excluded Person) is or becomes the "beneficial owner," directly or
indirectly, of more than 50% of the total voting power in the aggregate normally
entitled to vote in the election of directors, managers, or trustees, as
applicable, of the transferee(s) or surviving entity or entities, (ii) any
"person" or "group" (as such terms are used for purposes of Sections 13(d) and
14(d) of the Exchange Act, whether or not applicable) (other than an Excluded
Person) is or becomes the "beneficial

                                        53


owner," directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the total voting power in
the aggregate of all classes of Capital Stock of the Company then outstanding
normally entitled to vote in elections of directors, or (iii) during any period
of 12 consecutive months after the Issue Date, individuals who at the beginning
of any such 12-month period constituted the Board of Directors of the Company
(together with any new directors whose election by such Board or whose
nomination for election by the shareholders of the Company was approved by a
vote of a majority of the directors then still in office who were either
directors at the beginning of such period or whose election or nomination for
election was previously so approved) cease for any reason to constitute a
majority of the Board of Directors of the Company then in office.

     On or before the Change of Control Purchase Date, the Company will (i)
accept for payment Notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the
Change of Control Offer, (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent cash sufficient to
pay the Change of Control Purchase Price (together with accrued and unpaid
interest) of all Notes so tendered and (iii) deliver to the Trustee Notes so
accepted together with an Officers' Certificate listing the Notes or portions
thereof being purchased by the Company. The Paying Agent promptly will pay the
Holders of Notes so accepted an amount equal to the Change of Control Purchase
Price (together with accrued and unpaid interest), and the Trustee promptly will
authenticate and deliver to such Holders a new Note equal in principal amount to
any unpurchased portion (but not including accrued but unpaid interest) of the
Note surrendered. Any Notes not so accepted will be delivered promptly by the
Company to the Holder thereof. The Company publicly will announce the results of
the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of
Control Purchase Date.

     The Change of Control purchase feature of the Notes may make more difficult
or discourage a takeover of the Company, and, thus, the removal of incumbent
management.

     The phrase "all or substantially all" of the assets of the Company will
likely be interpreted under applicable state law and will be dependent upon
particular facts and circumstances. As a result, there may be a degree of
uncertainty in ascertaining whether a sale or transfer of "all or substantially
all" of the assets of the Company has occurred.

     No assurance can be given that the Company will have available sufficient
funds to acquire Notes tendered pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. In the
event that the Company is required to purchase outstanding Notes upon the
occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company expects that it would seek third
party financing to the extent that it does not have available funds to meet its
purchase obligations. There can be no assurance that the Company would be able
to obtain such financing.

     Any Change of Control Offer will be made in compliance with all applicable
laws, rules and regulations, including, if applicable, Regulation 14E under the
Exchange Act and the rules thereunder and all other applicable Federal and state
securities laws. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or
regulations conflict with the terms hereof, the Company shall comply with the
applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have
breached its obligations under the Indenture or the Notes by virtue thereof.

  LIMITATION ON INCURRENCE OF ADDITIONAL INDEBTEDNESS

     The Indenture provides that, except as set forth in this covenant, the
Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to incur, directly
or indirectly, any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) other than
Permitted Indebtedness.

     The immediately preceding paragraph will not prohibit the Company or any
Guarantor from incurring Indebtedness if (i) no Default or Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of, or would occur after
giving effect on a pro forma basis to, such incurrence of Indebtedness and (ii)
on the date of incurrence of such Indebtedness (the "Incurrence Date"), after
giving effect on a pro forma basis to such incurrence and the use of proceeds
thereof (including, if applicable, the Investment of such proceeds in Cash
Equivalents), the Consolidated Coverage Ratio of the Company for the Reference
Period immediately preceding the Incurrence Date would be at least 2.0 to 1.0
(the "Debt Incurrence Ratio").

                                        54


     For purpose of determining compliance with this covenant, in the event an
item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the
categories of Permitted Indebtedness, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to
the second paragraph of this covenant, the Company will be permitted to classify
such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence and to reclassify such
item of Indebtedness as of the date of such reclassification in any manner that
complies with the Indenture.

  LIMITATION ON RESTRICTED PAYMENTS

     The Indenture provides that the Company will not, and will not permit any
of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, make any Restricted Payment if,
after giving effect to such Restricted Payment on a pro forma basis, (1) a
Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (2) the
Company is not permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness
pursuant to the Debt Incurrence Ratio in the "Limitation on Incurrence of
Additional Indebtedness" covenant, or (3) the aggregate amount of all Restricted
Payments made by the Company and its Subsidiaries, including after giving effect
to such proposed Restricted Payment, from and after the Issue Date, would exceed
the sum of (a) 50% of the aggregate Consolidated Net Income of the Company and
its Subsidiaries for the period (taken as one accounting period), commencing on
the first day of the first full fiscal quarter commencing after the Issue Date,
to and including the last day of the fiscal quarter ended immediately prior to
the date of each such calculation (or, in the event Consolidated Net Income for
such period is a deficit, then minus 100% of such deficit), (b) the aggregate
Net Cash Proceeds received by the Company from the sale of its Qualified Capital
Stock (including Qualified Capital Stock issued upon the exercise of options,
warrants, or rights to purchase Qualified Capital Stock) or options, warrants or
rights to purchase Qualified Capital Stock or of debt securities of the Company
that have been converted into Qualified Capital Stock (other than (i) to a
Subsidiary of the Company or (ii) to the extent applied in connection with a
Qualified Exchange) after the Issue Date, (c) an amount equal to the net
reduction in Investments (including by way of dividends, dispositions or
repayments, or the release of a guarantee constituting a Restricted Payment) by
the Company and its Subsidiaries subsequent to the Issue Date in any
Unrestricted Subsidiary, but only to the extent such amount is not included in
Consolidated Net Income, and (d) $20.0 million.

     The immediately preceding paragraph, however, will not prohibit (w) so long
as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or
should occur as a consequence thereof, any Refinancing of Indebtedness otherwise
permitted by clause (c) of the definition of "Permitted Indebtedness"; (x) the
repurchase of Capital Stock of the Company or options to purchase Capital Stock
of the Company from employees of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company
pursuant to the forms of agreements under which employees may purchase or are
granted the option to purchase, shares of Capital Stock of the Company, (y) a
Qualified Exchange, or (z) the payment of any dividend on Capital Stock within
60 days after the date of its declaration if such dividend could have been made
on the date of such declaration in compliance with the foregoing provisions. The
full amount of any payment made pursuant to clauses (x) and (z) (but not
pursuant to clauses (w) or (y)) of the immediately preceding sentence will be
treated as Restricted Payments for purposes of calculating the aggregate amount
of Restricted Payments made pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph.

  LIMITATION ON DIVIDENDS AND OTHER PAYMENT RESTRICTIONS AFFECTING SUBSIDIARIES

     The Indenture provides that the Company will not, and will not permit any
of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, assume or suffer to
exist any consensual restriction on the ability of any Subsidiary of the Company
to pay dividends or make other distributions to or on behalf of, or to pay any
obligation to or on behalf of, or otherwise to transfer assets or property to or
on behalf of, or make or pay loans or advances to or on behalf of, the Company
or any Subsidiary of the Company, except (a) restrictions imposed by the Notes
or the Indenture or any other instrument governing debt securities of the
Company incurred in compliance with the "Limitation on Additional Indebtedness"
covenant that are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those
contained in the Notes and the Indenture, (b) restrictions imposed by applicable
law, (c) existing restrictions under Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date,
(d) restrictions under any Acquired Indebtedness not incurred in violation of
the Indenture or

                                        55


any agreement relating to any property, asset, or business acquired by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, which restrictions are not applicable to any
person, other than the person acquired, or to any property, asset or business,
other than the property, assets and business so acquired, (e) any such
restriction or requirement imposed by Indebtedness incurred under paragraph (b)
of the definition of "Permitted Indebtedness" provided such restriction are not
materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than customary provisions in
comparable financings, (f) restrictions with respect solely to a Subsidiary of
the Company imposed pursuant to a binding agreement which has been entered into
for the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the Equity Interests
or assets of such Subsidiary, provided such restrictions apply solely to the
Equity Interests or assets of such Subsidiary which are being sold, (g)
customary restrictions on transfers of property contained in any security
agreement (including a Capital Lease Obligation) securing Indebtedness of the
Company or a Subsidiary otherwise permitted under the Indenture, (h) in
connection with and pursuant to permitted Refinancings, replacements of
restrictions imposed pursuant to clauses (a), (c) or (d) of this paragraph that
are not more restrictive than those being replaced and do not apply to any other
person or assets than those that would have been covered by the restrictions in
the Indebtedness so refinanced, and (i) customary limitations on dispositions or
distributions of assets or property that are subject to joint venture agreements
or similar arrangements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither (a) customary
provisions restricting subletting or assignment of any lease entered into in the
ordinary course of business, consistent with industry practice, nor (b) Liens
permitted under the terms of the Indenture shall in and of themselves be
considered a restriction on the ability of the applicable Subsidiary to transfer
such agreement or assets, as the case may be.

  LIMITATION ON LIENS SECURING INDEBTEDNESS

     The Indenture provides that the Company will not, and will not permit any
of its Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien of any
kind, other than Permitted Liens, upon any of their respective assets now owned
or acquired on or after the Issue Date or upon any income or profits therefrom,
unless the Company provides, and causes its Subsidiaries to provide,
concurrently therewith, that the Notes are equally and ratably so secured. Any
such Lien thereby created in favor of the Notes will be automatically and
unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the
Initial Lien to which it relates.

  LIMITATION ON SALE OF ASSETS

     The Indenture provides that the Company will not, and will not permit any
of its Subsidiaries to, convey, sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of,
directly or indirectly, any of its property, business or assets, including by
merger or consolidation (in the case of a Subsidiary of the Company), and
including any sale or other transfer or issuance of any Equity Interests of any
Subsidiary of the Company, whether by the Company or a Subsidiary or through the
issuance, sale or transfer of Equity Interests by a Subsidiary of the Company,
and including any sale and leaseback transaction, in a single transaction or
through a series of related transactions, for an aggregate consideration net of
out-of-pocket costs relating thereto (including without limitation, legal,
accounting and investment banking fees and sales commissions), in excess of $1.0
million (any of the foregoing, an "Asset Sale"), unless (1) within 12 months
after the date of such Asset Sale, an amount equal to the Net Cash Proceeds
therefrom is (a) applied to the optional redemption of the Notes in accordance
with the terms of the Indenture, (b) applied to the repurchase of the Notes
pursuant to an irrevocable, unconditional cash offer (the "Asset Sale Offer") to
repurchase Notes at a purchase price of 100% of the principal amount thereof
(the "Asset Sale Offer Price") together with accrued and unpaid interest to the
date of payment and to the repurchase or repayment of any Indebtedness that
ranks pari passu with the Notes that has similar provisions requiring the
repurchase or repayment of such Indebtedness as a result of the Asset Sale;
provided that the offer to repurchase the Notes and the repurchase and repayment
of such other Indebtedness shall be on a pro rata basis based upon the aggregate
principal amount of Notes and such other Indebtedness then outstanding or (c)
(i) invested in assets and property (other than notes, bonds, obligations and
securities, except in connection with the acquisition of a Subsidiary) which in
the good faith reasonable judgment of the Board of Directors will immediately
constitute or be a part of a Related Business of the Company or such Subsidiary
(if it continues to be a Subsidiary) immediately following
                                        56


such transaction or (ii) used to permanently reduce Indebtedness permitted
pursuant to paragraph (b) of the definition "Permitted Indebtedness" (including
that in the case of a revolver or similar arrangement that makes credit
available, such commitment is also permanently reduced by such amount), (2) at
least 75% of the total consideration received for such Asset Sale or series of
related Asset Sales consists of Cash or Cash Equivalents; provided that the
Company and its Subsidiaries may engage in Asset Sales for consideration not in
the form of cash or Cash Equivalents in amounts in excess of that permitted in
this clause (2), so long as (x) such excess consideration is in the form of
Fully Traded Common Stock, (y) the aggregate market value of such Fully Traded
Common Stock received by the Company and its Subsidiaries (measured as of the
date of receipt) from all Asset Sales in reliance on this proviso since the date
of the Indenture that has not been converted into cash or Cash Equivalents does
not exceed $10.0 million and (z) any Fully Traded Common Stock that is converted
into cash or Cash Equivalents shall be applied as provided in this "Limitation
on Sales of Assets" covenant, (3) no Default or Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing at the time of, or would occur after giving effect,
on a pro forma basis, to, such Asset Sale, and (4) the Board of Directors of the
Company determines in good faith that the Company or such Subsidiary, as
applicable, receives fair market value for such Asset Sale.

     The Indenture provides that an acquisition of Notes pursuant to an Asset
Sale Offer may be deferred beyond the 12 month period stipulated in "Limitation
on Sale of Assets" until the accumulated Net Cash Proceeds from Asset Sales not
applied to the uses set forth in clause (1)(b) of the immediately preceding
paragraph (the "Excess Proceeds") exceeds $10.0 million and that each Asset Sale
Offer shall remain open for 20 Business Days following its commencement (the
"Asset Sale Offer Period"). Upon expiration of the Asset Sale Offer Period, the
Company shall apply the Excess Proceeds plus an amount equal to accrued and
unpaid interest to the purchase of all Notes and other Indebtedness properly
tendered (on a pro rata basis if the Excess Proceeds are insufficient to
purchase all Notes and other Indebtedness so tendered) at the Asset Sale Offer
Price (together with accrued interest) or other applicable price for other
Indebtedness. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes tendered pursuant
to an Asset Sale Offer and other Indebtedness tendered pursuant to a similar
offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining Net
Cash Proceeds for general corporate purposes as otherwise permitted by the
Indenture and following each Asset Sale Offer the Excess Proceeds amount shall
be reset to zero. For purposes of clause (2) of the immediately preceding
paragraph, total consideration received means the total consideration received
for such Asset Sales minus the amount of (a) Indebtedness which is not
Subordinated Indebtedness assumed by a transferee which assumption permanently
reduces the amount of Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date or permitted
pursuant to paragraph (b) of the definition "Permitted Indebtedness" (including
that in the case of a revolver or similar arrangement that makes credit
available, such commitment is so reduced by such amount) and (b) property that
within 30 days of such Asset Sale is converted into Cash or Cash Equivalents.

     The Company and its Subsidiaries may undertake the following actions
without complying with the prior two paragraphs:

          (i) the Company and its Subsidiaries may, in the ordinary course of
     business, convey, sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of inventory,
     receivables and notes receivable acquired and held for resale in the
     ordinary course of business;

          (ii) the sale, lease, transfer or other conveyance of all or
     substantially all of the assets of the Company, on a consolidated basis,
     will be governed by the provisions described under the covenants "Offer to
     Repurchase Notes Upon a Change of Control" and "Limitation on Merger, Sale
     or Consolidation" and not by the provisions of this covenant;

          (iii) the Company and its Subsidiaries may sell or dispose of damaged,
     worn out or other obsolete property in the ordinary course of business so
     long as such property is no longer necessary for the proper conduct of the
     business of the Company or such Subsidiary, as applicable;

          (iv) the Company and its Subsidiaries may convey, sell, transfer,
     assign or otherwise dispose of assets to the Company or a Subsidiary;

                                        57


          (v) the Company and its Subsidiaries may securitize their accounts
     receivable under long term system leases;

          (vi) the Company and its Subsidiaries may simultaneously exchange
     property or assets for other property or assets, provided that the property
     or assets received by the Company or Subsidiary have at least substantially
     equal fair market value to the Company or Subsidiary as the property or
     assets exchanged (as determined by the Board of Directors evidenced by a
     Board Resolution filed with the Trustee) and will immediately constitute or
     be part of a Related Business of the Company or such Subsidiary;

          (vii) a Subsidiary may issue Equity Interests of such Subsidiary;

          (viii) the Company may sell lease, transfer or otherwise convey,
     including by means of a merger or consolidation, all or any part of its
     motion simulation and attractions business, provided that it complies with
     the requirements of clause (4) of the first paragraph of this covenant;

          (ix) the Company and its Subsidiaries may sell or liquidate Cash
     Equivalents; and

          (x) the Company and its Subsidiaries may make Investments in Permitted
     Joint Ventures that qualify as Permitted Investments pursuant to clause (l)
     of the definition of Permitted Investments.

     All Net Cash Proceeds from an Event of Loss shall be invested, used for
prepayment of Indebtedness, or used to repurchase Notes, all within the period
and as otherwise provided above in clause 1(a) or 1(b) of the first paragraph of
this section.

     Any Asset Sale Offer shall be made in compliance with all applicable laws,
rules, and regulations, including, if applicable, Regulation 14E of the Exchange
Act and the rules and regulations thereunder and all other applicable Federal
and state securities laws. To the extent that the provisions of any securities
laws or regulations conflict with the terms hereof, the Company shall comply
with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to
have breached its obligations hereunder by virtue thereof.

  LIMITATION ON TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

     The Indenture provides that neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
will be permitted on or after the Issue Date to enter into or suffer to exist
any contract, agreement, arrangement or transaction with any Affiliate (an
"Affiliate Transaction"), or any series of related Affiliate Transactions,
(other than Exempted Affiliate Transactions) (i) unless it is determined that
the terms of such Affiliate Transaction are fair and reasonable to the Company,
and no less favorable to the Company than could have been obtained in an arm's
length transaction with a non-Affiliate and, (ii) if involving consideration to
either party in excess of $2.0 million, unless such Affiliate Transaction(s) is
evidenced by an Officers' Certificate addressed and delivered to the Trustee
certifying that such Affiliate Transaction(s) has been approved by a majority of
the members of the Board of Directors that are disinterested in such transaction
and (iii) if involving consideration to either party in excess of $10.0 million,
unless in addition the Company, prior to the consummation thereof, obtains a
written favorable opinion as to the fairness of such transaction to the Company
from a financial point of view from an independent investment banking firm of
national reputation in the United States.

  LIMITATION ON MERGER, SALE OR CONSOLIDATION

     The Indenture provides that the Company will not, directly or indirectly,
consolidate or amalgamate with or merge with or into another person or sell,
lease, transfer or otherwise convey all or substantially all of its assets
(computed on a consolidated basis), whether in a single transaction or a series
of related transactions, to another person or group of affiliated persons or
adopt a Plan of Liquidation, unless (i) either (a) the Company is the continuing
entity or (b) the resulting, surviving or transferee entity or, in the case of a
Plan of Liquidation, the entity which receives the greatest value from such Plan
of Liquidation is a corporation organized under the laws of the United States of
America, or any state thereof or the District of Columbia, or Canada or any
province or territory thereof and expressly assumes by supplemental indenture
all of the obligations of the Company in connection with the Notes and the
Indenture; (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall exist or shall occur
immediately after giving effect on

                                        58


a pro forma basis to such transaction; and (iii) immediately after giving effect
to such transaction on a pro forma basis, the consolidated resulting, surviving
or transferee entity or, in the case of a Plan of Liquidation, the entity which
receives the greatest value from such Plan of Liquidation would immediately
thereafter be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness
pursuant to the Debt Incurrence Ratio set forth in the "Limitation on Incurrence
of Additional Indebtedness" covenant.

     Notwithstanding the previous paragraph, any Subsidiary may consolidate or
amalgamate with, merge into or transfer all or part of its property and assets
to the Company or another Guarantor.

     Upon any consolidation, amalgamation or merger or any transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company or consummation of a Plan of
Liquidation in accordance with the foregoing, the successor corporation formed
by such consolidation or amalgamation or into which the Company is merged or to
which such transfer is made or, in the case of a Plan of Liquidation, the entity
which receives the greatest value from such Plan of Liquidation shall succeed
to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the
Company under the Indenture with the same effect as if such successor
corporation had been named therein as the Company, and the Company shall be
released from the obligations under the Notes and the Indenture except with
respect to any obligations that arise from, or are related to, such transaction.

     For purposes of the foregoing, the transfer (by lease, assignment, sale or
otherwise) of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or
more Subsidiaries, the Company's interest in which constitutes all or
substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company shall be deemed to
be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the
Company.

  LIMITATION ON STATUS AS INVESTMENT COMPANY

     The Indenture prohibits the Company and its Subsidiaries from being
required to register as an "investment company" (as that term is defined in the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended), or from otherwise becoming subject
to regulation under the Investment Company Act.

  LIMITATION ON SALE AND LEASEBACK TRANSACTIONS

     The Indenture provides that the Company will not, and will not permit any
Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, enter into any Sale and Leaseback
Transaction unless (a) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such Sale
and Leaseback Transaction (the Attributable Value of such Sale and Leaseback
Transaction being deemed to be Indebtedness of the Company, if not otherwise
treated so pursuant to the definition of Indebtedness), the Company could incur
at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Debt Incurrence Ratio
set forth in the covenant "Limitation on Incurrence of Additional Indebtedness,"
(b) such Sale and Leaseback Transaction complies with the covenant "Limitation
on Sale of Assets" and (c) the Company or such Subsidiary could incur a Lien to
secure Indebtedness in the amount of the Attributable Value of the Sale and
Leaseback Transaction without equally and ratably securing the Notes.

  GUARANTEES

     If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries acquires or creates another North
American Subsidiary on or after the date of the Indenture, then that newly
acquired or created North American Subsidiary must become a Guarantor and
execute a supplemental indenture.

     The Company will not permit any of its Subsidiaries, directly or
indirectly, to Guarantee or pledge any assets to secure the payment of any other
Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof, other than Foreign
Subsidiaries, unless such Subsidiary is a Guarantor or simultaneously executes
and delivers a supplemental indenture providing for the Guarantee of the payment
of the Notes by such Subsidiary, which Guarantee shall be senior to or pari
passu with such Subsidiary's Guarantee of such other Indebtedness.

                                        59


     A Guarantor may not sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all
of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such
Guarantor is the surviving person), another person, other than the Company or
another Guarantor, unless:

          (1) immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no Default or
     Event of Default exists; and

          (2) either:

             (a) the person acquiring the property in any such sale or
        disposition or the person formed by or surviving any such consolidation
        or merger (if other than the Guarantor) is a corporation organized or
        existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the
        District of Columbia or Canada or any province or territory thereof and
        assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under the Indenture, its
        Note Guarantee and the Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to a
        supplemental indenture satisfactory to the Trustee; or

             (b) such sale or other disposition or consolidation or merger
        complies with the covenant described above under the caption
        "-- Limitation on Asset Sales."

     The Note Guarantee of a Guarantor will be released:

          (1) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all of the
     Capital Stock of a Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or
     after giving effect to such transaction) a Subsidiary of the Company, if
     the sale of all such Capital Stock of that Guarantor complies with the
     covenant described above under the caption "-- Limitation on Assets Sales;"

          (2) if the Company properly designates any Subsidiary that is a
     Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary under the Indenture; or

          (3) solely in the case of a Note Guarantee created pursuant to the
     second paragraph of this covenant, upon the release or discharge of the
     Guarantee which resulted in the creation of such Note Guarantee pursuant to
     this covenant "-- Guarantees," except a discharge or release by or as a
     result of payment under such Guarantee.

  PAYMENTS FOR CONSENT

     Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, directly or
indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of
interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder of any Notes for or as an inducement
to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of the
Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid or agreed
to be paid to all Holders of the Notes who so consent, waive or agree to amend
in the time frame set forth in solicitation documents relating to such consent,
waiver or agreement, which solicitation documents will be mailed to all Holders
of the Notes a reasonable amount of time prior to the expiration of such
solicitation.

REPORTS

     The Company will file with the Trustee, to be provided to Holders of Notes,
within 15 days of the required date of filing with the Commission, copies of its
annual and quarterly reports and of the information, documents and reports which
the Company or any Subsidiary is required to file with the Commission pursuant
to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. To the extent that the Company is
not subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act, the Company will file with the Commission and provide to the Trustee, to be
provided to the holders of the Notes, at the same time as if it were subject to
such requirements, such annual and quarterly reports and such information,
documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing
as the Commission may by rules and regulations prescribe) which it would be
required to file with the Commission if it were subject to such requirements.
The Company will also make such reports available to prospective purchasers of
the Notes, securities analysts and broker-dealers upon their request.

ADDITIONAL AMOUNTS

     All amounts paid or credited by the Company under or with respect to the
Notes, or by any Guarantor pursuant to its Note Guarantee, will be made free and
clear of and without withholding or

                                        60


deduction for or on account of any present or future tax, duty, levy, impost,
assessment, or other governmental charge imposed or levied by or on behalf of
the Government of Canada or of any province or territory thereof or by any
authority or agency therein or thereof having power to tax (hereinafter
"Taxes"), unless the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, is required
to withhold or deduct Taxes by law or by the interpretation or administration
thereof by the relevant government authority or agency. If the Company or any
Guarantor is so required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of
Taxes from any payment or credit made under or with respect to the Notes or Note
Guarantees, the Company or such Guarantor will pay such additional amounts (the
"Additional Amounts") as may be necessary so that the net payment or credit
received by each owner of a beneficial interest in the Notes (including
Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will not be less than
the amount the Holder or owner of a beneficial interest in the Notes would have
received if such Taxes had not been withheld or deducted; provided that no
Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to a payment or credit made to
an owner of a beneficial interest in the Notes (i) with whom the Company does
not deal at arm's length (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) at
the time of making such payment or credit, (ii) which is subject to such Taxes
by reason of its being connected with Canada or any province or territory
thereof otherwise than by the mere holding, use or ownership or deemed holding,
use or ownership of the Notes or the receipt of payments or credits or enforcing
any rights thereunder, (iii) which is subject to such Taxes by reason of its
failure to comply with any certification, identification, information,
documentation or other reporting requirement if compliance is required by law,
regulation, administrative practice or an applicable treaty as a precondition to
exemption from, or a reduction in the rate of deduction or withholding of, such
Taxes, (iv) which failed to duly and timely comply with a timely request by the
Company to provide information, documents, certification or other evidence
concerning such Holder's nationality, residence, entitlement to treaty benefits,
identity or connection with Canada or any political subdivision or authority
thereof, if and to the extent that due and timely compliance with such request
could have resulted in the reduction or elimination of any Taxes as to which
Additional Amounts would otherwise have been payable to such Holder of Notes but
for this clause (iv), (v) which is a fiduciary, a partnership or not the
beneficial owner of any payment on a Note, if and to the extent that any
beneficiary or settlor of such fiduciary, any partner of such partnership or the
beneficial owner of such payment (as the case may be) would not have been
entitled to receive Additional Amounts with respect to such payment if such
beneficiary, settlor, partner or beneficial owner had been the Holder of such
Note or (vi) any combination of the foregoing clauses (i) through (v) (in each
case referred to herein as an "Excluded Holder"). The Company or such Guarantor
will also (1) make such withholding or deduction and (2) remit the full amount
deducted or withheld to the relevant authority in accordance with and in the
time required by applicable law. The Company will furnish the Holders of the
Notes, within 30 days after the date the payment of any Taxes is due pursuant to
applicable law, certified copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment by the
Company, if reasonably available. In the event that the Company or such
Guarantor fails to remit any taxes in respect of which Additional Amounts are
payable, the Company or such Guarantor will indemnify and hold harmless each
owner of a beneficial interest in the Notes (other than an Excluded Holder) and
upon written request reimburse such owner of a beneficial interest in the Notes
for the amount of (i) any Taxes levied on and paid by, such owner of a
beneficial interest in the Notes as a result of payment made with respect to the
Notes (including penalties, interest and expenses arising from or with respect
to such Taxes) and (ii) any Taxes (including penalties, interest and expenses
arising from or with respect to such Taxes) imposed with respect to payment of
Additional Amounts or any reimbursement pursuant to this sentence.

     At least 30 days prior to each date on which any payment under or with
respect to the Notes is due and payable, if the Company will be obligated to pay
Additional Amounts with respect to such payments, the Company will deliver to
the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating the fact that such Additional
Amounts will be payable and the amounts so payable and setting forth such other
information necessary to enable the Trustee to pay such Additional Amounts to
Holders or owners of a beneficial interest in the Notes, as the case may be, on
the payment date.

                                        61


EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

     The Indenture will define an Event of Default as:

          (i) the failure by the Company to pay any installment of interest on
     the Notes as and when the same becomes due and payable and the continuance
     of any such failure for 30 days,

          (ii) the failure by the Company to pay all or any part of the
     principal, or premium, if any, on the Notes when and as the same becomes
     due and payable at maturity, redemption, by acceleration or otherwise,
     including, without limitation, payment of the Change of Control Purchase
     Price or the Asset Sale Offer Price, or otherwise,

          (iii) the failure by the Company or any Subsidiary to observe or
     perform any other covenant or agreement contained in the Notes or the
     Indenture and the continuance of such failure for a period of 30 days after
     written notice is given to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and
     the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of
     the Notes outstanding (except in the case of a failure to make a Change of
     Control Offer, which shall constitute an Event of Default with such notice
     requirement but without such passage of time requirement),

          (iv) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization in
     respect of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries,

          (v) failure to perform or comply with the provisions described under
     "Limitation on Merger, Sale or Consolidation,"

          (vi) a default in Indebtedness of the Company or any of its
     Subsidiaries with an aggregate principal amount in excess of $10.0 million
     (a) resulting from the failure to pay principal or interest (after any
     applicable grace period) or (b) as a result of which the maturity of such
     Indebtedness has been accelerated prior to its stated maturity,

          (vii) final unsatisfied judgments not covered by insurance aggregating
     in excess of $10.0 million, at any one time rendered against the Company or
     any of its Subsidiaries and not stayed, bonded or discharged within 60
     days, and

          (viii) except as permitted by the Indenture, any Note Guarantee shall
     be held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or shall
     cease for any reason to be in full force and effect or any Guarantor, or
     any person acting on behalf of any Guarantor, shall deny or disaffirm its
     obligations under its Note Guarantee.

     The Indenture provides that if a Default occurs and is continuing, the
Trustee must, within 90 days after the occurrence of such Default, give to the
Holders notice of such Default.

     If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of
Default specified in clause (iv) above relating to the Company or any
Subsidiary), then in every such case, unless the principal of all of the Notes
shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the Holders of
25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, by notice in
writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders) (an
"Acceleration Notice"), may declare all principal and premium, if any,
determined as set forth below, and accrued interest thereon to be due and
payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in clause (iv), above,
relating to the Company or any Subsidiary occurs, all principal and premium, if
any, and accrued interest thereon will be immediately due and payable on all
outstanding Notes without any declaration or other act on the part of the
Trustee or the Holders. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount
of Notes at the time outstanding generally are authorized to rescind such
acceleration if all existing Events of Default, other than the non-payment of
the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes which have become
due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived, except on default
with respect to any provision requiring the approval of the Holder of each
outstanding Note affected to amend.

     In the case of any Event of Default occurring by reason of any willful
action (or inaction) taken (or not taken) by or on behalf of the Company with
the intention of avoiding payment of the premium that the Company would have had
to pay if the Company then had elected to redeem the Notes pursuant to

                                        62


the optional redemption provisions of the Indenture, an equivalent premium shall
also become and be immediately due and payable to the extent permitted by law
upon the acceleration of the Notes.

     Prior to the declaration of acceleration of the maturity of the Notes, the
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time
outstanding may waive on behalf of all the Holders any default, except a default
with respect to any provision requiring a supermajority approval to amend, which
default may only be waived by such a supermajority, and except a default in the
payment of principal of or interest on any Note not yet cured or a default with
respect to any covenant or provision which cannot be modified or amended without
the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Note affected. Subject to the
provisions of the Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee, the Trustee
will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the
Indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the Holders, unless such
Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity. Subject to
all provisions of the Indenture and applicable law, the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding will have the
right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any
remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on
the Trustee.

     The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement
regarding compliance with the Indenture and the Company is required, upon
becoming aware of any default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a
statement specifying such default or Event of Default.

LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

     The Indenture provides that the Company may, at its option and at any time,
elect to have its obligations discharged with respect to the outstanding Notes
("Legal Defeasance"). Such Legal Defeasance means that the Company shall be
deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented, and the
Indenture shall cease to be of further effect as to all outstanding Notes and
all Note Guarantees, except as to (i) rights of Holders to receive payments in
respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Notes when
such payments are due from the trust funds; (ii) the Company's obligations with
respect to such Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of Notes,
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes, and the maintenance of an office or
agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust; (iii) the
rights, powers, trust, duties, and immunities of the Trustee, and the Company's
obligations in connection therewith; and (iv) the Legal Defeasance provisions of
the Indenture. In addition, the Company may, at its option and at any time,
elect to have the obligations of the Company released with respect to certain
covenants that are described in the Indenture ("Covenant Defeasance") and
thereafter any omission to comply with such obligations shall not constitute a
Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes. In the event Covenant
Defeasance occurs, certain events (not including nonpayment of principal,
interest or premium, if any, bankruptcy, receivership, rehabilitation and
insolvency events) described under "Events of Default" will no longer constitute
an Event of Default with respect to the Notes.

     In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, (i)
the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit
of the Holders of the Notes, U.S. legal tender, U.S. Government Obligations or a
combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a
nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Notes on the stated date for
payment thereof or on the redemption date of such principal or installment of
principal of, premium, if any, or interest on such Notes, and the Holders of
Notes must have a valid, perfected, exclusive security interest in such trust;
(ii) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to the
Trustee an opinion of counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the
Trustee confirming that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been
published by the Internal Revenue Service, a ruling or (B) since the date of the
Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax
law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion of
counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of such Notes will not recognize income,
gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal
Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the
same manner and at the same times as would

                                        63


have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred; (iii) in the case
of Covenant Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an
opinion of counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee
confirming that the Holders of such Notes will not recognize income, gain or
loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and
will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same
manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant
Defeasance had not occurred; (iv) in the case of Legal Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of
counsel in Canada reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that (A) the
Holders of such Notes will not recognize gain or loss for Canadian federal,
provincial or territorial income tax purposes as a result of such deposit,
defeasance or discharge and will be subject to Canadian federal, provincial and
territorial income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same
times as would have been the case if such deposit, defeasance and discharge had
not occurred and (B) the interest, principal and other amounts paid or credited
in respect of such Notes will not be subject to Canadian withholding tax as a
result of such deposit, defeasance or discharge; (v) no Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or, in
the case of Legal Defeasance insofar as Events of Default from bankruptcy or
insolvency events are concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st
day after the date of deposit; (vi) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance
shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, the
Indenture or any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries is bound; (vii) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Officers' Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with
the intent of preferring the holders of such Notes over any other creditors of
the Company or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding
any other creditors of the Company or others; and (viii) the Company shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an opinion of counsel,
each stating that the conditions precedent provided for in, in the case of the
Officers' Certificate, clauses (i) through (vii) and, in the case of the opinion
of counsel, clauses (i) (with respect to the validity and perfection of the
security interest), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (vi) of this paragraph have been
complied with.

     If the funds deposited with the Trustee to effect Legal Defeasance or
Covenant Defeasance are insufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any,
and interest on the Notes when due, then the obligations of the Company under
the Indenture will be revived and no such defeasance will be deemed to have
occurred.

AMENDMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTS

     The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee to
amend the Indenture or enter into a supplemental indenture without the consent

rights to the Holders. With the consent of the Holders of not less than a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, the
Company and the Trustee are permitted to amend or supplement the Indenture or

consent of each Holder affected thereby, the Indenture may not be amended or

principal amount thereof or the rate (or extend the time for payment) of
interest thereon or any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, or change
the place of payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Note or any
premium or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute

Indebtedness, or (v) except in accordance with the Indenture, release any
Guarantor from its obligations under its Note Guarantee.

     The Indenture provides that no direct or indirect stockholder, employee,
officer or director, as such, past, present or future of the Company or any
successor entity shall have any personal liability in respect of the obligations
of the Company under the Indenture or the Notes by reason of his or its status
as such stockholder, employee, officer or director, except to the extent such
person is the Company.

resolution of the Board of Directors filed with the Trustee.

     "Unrestricted Subsidiary" means (i) any Subsidiary designated by the Board

such designation by the Board of Directors of the Company shall be evidenced to
the Trustee by filing a certified resolution with the Trustee giving effect to

Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Subsidiary if, immediately after giving effect to
such designation, there would be no Default or Event of Default under the

                         BOOK-ENTRY, DELIVERY AND FORM

     Except as set forth below, the Notes (as defined in the section entitled
"Description of the Notes") will be issued in registered, global form in minimum
denominations of $1,000 stated principal amount at maturity and integral
multiples of $1,000 in excess of $1,000. Notes will be issued at the closing of
the exchange offer only against surrender of old notes.

     The Notes initially will be represented by one or more notes in registered,
global form without interest coupons (collectively, the "Global Notes"). The
Global Notes will be deposited upon issuance with the Trustee as custodian for
The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), in New York, New York, and registered in
the name of DTC or its nominee, in each case for credit to an account of a
direct or indirect participant in DTC as described below. Except as set forth
below, the Global Notes may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only to
another nominee of DTC or to a successor of DTC or its nominee. Beneficial
interests in the Global Notes may not be exchanged for notes in certificated
form except in the limited circumstances described below. See "-- Exchange of
Global Notes for Certificated Notes." Except in the limited circumstances
described below, owners of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will not be
entitled to receive physical delivery of the Notes in certificated form.

     Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be subject to
the applicable rules and procedures of DTC and its direct or indirect
participants (including, if applicable, those of the Euroclear System
("Euroclear") and Clearstream Banking, S.A. ("Clearstream"), which may change
from time to time.

DEPOSITORY PROCEDURES

     The following description of the operations and procedures of DTC,
Euroclear and Clearstream are provided solely as a matter of convenience. These
operations and procedures are solely within the control of the respective
settlement systems and are subject to changes by them. The Company takes no
responsibility for these operations and procedures and urges investors to
contact the respective systems or their participants directly to discuss these
matters. DTC has advised the Company that DTC is a limited-purpose trust company
created to hold securities for its participating organizations (collectively,
the "Participants") and to facilitate the clearance and settlement of
transactions in those securities between the Participants through electronic
book-entry changes in accounts of its Participants. The Participants include
securities brokers and dealers (including the initial purchasers of the Notes
(the "Initial Purchasers")), banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and
certain other organizations. Access to DTC's system is also available to other
entities such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through
or maintain a custodial relationship with a Participant, either directly or
indirectly (collectively, the "Indirect Participants"). Persons who are not
Participants may beneficially own securities held by or on behalf of DTC only
through the Participants or the Indirect Participants. The ownership interests
in, and transfers of ownership interests in, each security held by or on behalf
of DTC are recorded on the records of the Participants and Indirect
Participants.

     DTC has also advised the Company that, pursuant to procedures established
by it:

          (1) upon deposit of the Global Notes, DTC will credit the accounts of
     the Participants designated by the Initial Purchasers with portions of the
     principal amount at maturity of the Global Notes; and

          (2) ownership of these interests in the Global Notes will be shown on,
     and the transfer of ownership of these interests will be effected only
     through, records maintained by DTC (with respect to the Participants) or by
     the Participants and the Indirect Participants (with respect to other
     owners of beneficial interest in the Global Notes).

     Investors in the Global Notes who are Participants may hold their interests
therein directly through DTC. Investors in the Global Notes who are not
Participants may hold their interests therein indirectly through organizations
(including Euroclear and Clearstream) which are Participants. All interests in a
Global Note, including those held through Euroclear or Clearstream, may be
subject to the procedures and requirements of DTC. Those interests held through
Euroclear or Clearstream may also be subject to the

                                        77


procedures and requirements of such systems. The laws of some states require
that certain Persons take physical delivery in definitive form of securities
that they own. Consequently, the ability to transfer beneficial interests in a
Global Note to such Persons will be limited to that extent. Because DTC can act
only on behalf of the Participants, which in turn act on behalf of the Indirect
Participants, the ability of a Person having beneficial interests in a Global
Note to pledge such interests to Persons that do not participate in the DTC
system, or otherwise take actions in respect of such interests, may be affected
by the lack of a physical certificate evidencing such interests.

     Except as described below, owners of interests in the Global Notes will not
have notes registered in their names, will not receive physical delivery of
notes in certificated form and will not be considered the registered owners or
"Holders" thereof under the Indenture for any purpose. Payments in respect of
the principal of, and interest and premium, if any, and additional interest, if
any, on a Global Note registered in the name of DTC or its nominee will be
payable to DTC in its capacity as the registered Holder under the Indenture.
Under the terms of the Indenture, the Company and the Trustee will treat the
Persons in whose names the Notes, including the Global Notes, are registered as
the owners of the Notes for the purpose of receiving payments and for all other
purposes. Consequently, neither the Company, the Trustee nor any of the
Company's or the Trustee's agents has or will have any responsibility or
liability for:

          (1) any aspect of DTC's records or any Participant's or Indirect
     Participant's records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial
     ownership interests in the Global Notes or for maintaining, supervising or
     reviewing any of DTC's records or any Participant's or Indirect
     Participant's records relating to the beneficial ownership interests in the
     Global Notes; or

          (2) any other matter relating to the actions and practices of DTC or
     any of its Participants or Indirect Participants.

     DTC has advised us that its current practice, upon receipt of any payment
in respect of securities such as the Notes (including principal and interest),
is to credit the accounts of the relevant Participants with the payment on the
payment date unless DTC has reason to believe it will not receive payment on
such payment date. Each relevant Participant is credited with an amount
proportionate to its beneficial ownership of an interest in the principal amount
at maturity of the relevant security as shown on the records of DTC. Payments by
the Participants and the Indirect Participants to the beneficial owners of Notes
will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices and will be
the responsibility of the Participants or the Indirect Participants and will not
be the responsibility of DTC, the Trustee or the Company. Neither the Company
nor the Trustee will be liable for any delay by DTC or any of the Participants
or the Indirect Participants in identifying the beneficial owners of the Notes,
and the Company and the Trustee may conclusively rely on and will be protected
in relying on instructions from DTC or its nominee for all purposes.

     Transfers between the Participants will be effected in accordance with
DTC's procedures, and will be settled in same-day funds, and transfers between
participants in Euroclear and Clearstream will be effected in accordance with
their respective rules and operating procedures.

     Subject to compliance with the transfer restrictions applicable to the
Notes described herein, crossmarket transfers between the Participants, on the
one hand, and Euroclear or Clearstream participants, on the other hand, will be
effected through DTC in accordance with DTC's rules on behalf of Euroclear or
Clearstream, as the case may be, by their respective depositaries, however, such
crossmarket transactions will require delivery of instructions to Euroclear or
Clearstream, as the case may be, by the counterparty in such system in
accordance with the rules and procedures and within the established deadlines
(Brussels time) of such system. Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be,
will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions
to its respective depositary to take action to effect final settlement on its
behalf by delivering or receiving interests in the relevant Global Note in DTC,
and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures for
same-day funds settlement applicable to DTC. Euroclear participants and
Clearstream participants may not deliver instructions directly to the
depositories for Euroclear or Clearstream.

                                        78


     DTC has advised us that it will take any action permitted to be taken by a
Holder of Notes only at the direction of one or more Participants to whose
account DTC has credited the interests in the Global Notes and only in respect
of such portion of the aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Notes as to
which such Participant or Participants has or have given such direction.
However, if there is an Event of Default under the Notes, DTC reserves the right
to exchange the Global Notes for legended notes in certificated form, and to
distribute such notes to the Participants.

     Although DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream have agreed to the foregoing
procedures to facilitate transfers of interests in the Global Notes among
participants in DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream, they are under no obligation to
perform or to continue to perform such procedures, and may discontinue such
procedures at any time. Neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any of their
respective agents will have any responsibility for the performance by DTC,
Euroclear or Clearstream or their respective participants or indirect
participants of their respective obligations under the rules and procedures
governing their operations.

EXCHANGE OF GLOBAL NOTES FOR CERTIFICATED NOTES

     A Global Note is exchangeable for definitive notes in registered
certificated form ("Certificated Notes") if:

          (1) DTC (a) notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to
     continue as depositary for the Global Notes or (b) has ceased to be a
     clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, the
     Company fails to appoint a successor depositary;

          (2) the Company, at its option, notifies the Trustee in writing that
     it elects to cause the issuance of the Certificated Notes; or

          (3) there has occurred and is continuing a Default or Event of Default
     with respect to the Notes.

     In addition, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be exchanged for
Certificated Notes upon prior written notice given to the Trustee by or on
behalf of DTC in accordance with the Indenture. In all cases, Certificated Notes
delivered in exchange for any Global Note or beneficial interests in Global
Notes will be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations,
requested by or on behalf of the depositary (in accordance with its customary
procedures).

EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATED NOTES FOR GLOBAL NOTES

     Certificated Notes may not be exchanged for beneficial interests in any
Global Note unless the transferor first delivers to the Trustee a written
certificate (in the form provided in the Indenture) to the effect that such
transfer will comply with the appropriate transfer restrictions applicable to
such Notes.

SAME DAY SETTLEMENT AND PAYMENT

     The Company will make payments in respect of the Notes represented by the
Global Notes (including principal, premium, if any, interest and additional
interest, if any) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the
accounts specified by the Holders of the Global Note. The Company will make all
payments of principal, interest and premium, if any, and additional interest, if
any, with respect to Certificated Notes by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to the accounts specified by the Holders of the Certificated
Notes or, if no such account is specified, by mailing a check to each such
Holder's registered address. All payments will be made in United States dollars.
The Notes represented by the Global Notes are expected to be eligible to trade
in The Portal Market and to trade in DTC's Same-Day Funds Settlement System, and
any permitted secondary market trading activity in such Notes will, therefore,
be required by DTC to be settled in immediately available funds. The Company
expects that secondary trading in any Certificated Notes will also be settled in
immediately available funds.

                                        79


     Because of time zone differences, the securities account of a Euroclear or
Clearstream participant purchasing an interest in a Global Note from a
Participant will be credited, and any such crediting will be reported to the
relevant Euroclear or Clearstream participant, during the securities settlement
processing day (which must be a business day for Euroclear and Clearstream)
immediately following the settlement date of DTC. DTC has advised the Company
that cash received in Euroclear or Clearstream as a result of sales of interests
in a Global Note by or through a Euroclear or Clearstream participant to a
Participant will be received with value on the settlement date of DTC but will
be available in the relevant Euroclear or Clearstream cash account only as of
the business day for Euroclear or Clearstream following DTC's settlement date.

                   CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

     The following is a general discussion of certain U.S. federal income tax
consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of notes by a U.S.
Holder (as defined below). This summary constitutes the opinion of Shearman &
Sterling LLP, United States counsel to IMAX Corporation. The written opinion of
Shearman & Sterling LLP has been filed as an exhibit to the registration
statement of which this prospectus forms a part. It applies only to notes held
as capital assets, within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, (the "Code"), by investors who purchase the notes in
the offering at the offering price. This summary is intended for general
information only, and does not discuss all of the tax consequences that may be
relevant to a U.S. Holder and does not discuss the tax consequences applicable
to particular classes of U.S. Holders that may be subject to special tax rules,
such as dealers in securities or currencies, traders in securities that elect
mark to market, banks, tax-exempt organizations, partnerships, S corporations,
life insurance companies, persons that hold notes as part of a hedge, or as part
of a straddle or conversion transaction, taxpayers subject to the alternative
minimum tax or whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar. This summary
also does not address the tax consequences to shareholders, partners or
beneficiaries in any entity that holds notes. In addition, this summary does not
describe any foreign, state or local tax considerations. Investors who purchase
the notes at a price other than the offering price should consult their tax
advisors as to the possible applicability to them of the amortizable bond
premium or market discount rules. This summary is based on the Code, its
legislative history, existing and proposed U.S. Treasury regulations thereunder,
published rulings by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") and court decisions,
all as currently in effect and all subject to change at any time, possibly with
retroactive effect.

     YOU SHOULD CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISORS CONCERNING THE CONSEQUENCES, IN
YOUR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES, UNDER THE CODE AND THE LAWS OF ANY OTHER TAXING
JURISDICTION, OF THE ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF NOTES.

     For the purposes of this summary, a U.S. Holder is a beneficial owner that
is:

     - an individual citizen or resident of the United States for U.S. federal
       income tax purposes;

     - a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation, created or
       organized in or under the laws of the United States or of any political
       subdivision of the United States;

     - an estate that is subject to U.S. federal income tax without regard to
       the source of its income; or

     - a trust if (i) a United States court is able to exercise primary
       supervision over administration of the trust and one or more United
       States persons have authority to control all substantial decisions of the
       trust, or (ii) the trust has elected to be treated as a United States
       person under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations.

     We believe that the exchange of an old note for a note in the exchange
offer should not be a taxable exchange for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As
a result, a U.S. Holder will not recognize any gain or loss upon exchanging an
old note for a note. The holding period of the note will include the holding
period of the old note exchanged, and the adjusted tax basis of the note
received will be the same as the adjusted tax basis immediately before the
exchange of the old note.

     For U.S. federal income tax purposes, interest on a note generally will be
taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary income at the time received or accrued, in
accordance with such U.S. Holder's method of accounting for tax purposes. Such
interest will generally constitute foreign source income, and, with certain
exceptions, will be "passive" or "financial services" income for purposes of the
U.S. foreign tax credit.

     Upon the sale or exchange of a note (other than the exchange of an old note
for a note, as described above), a U.S. Holder will recognize gain or loss, if
any, for U.S. federal income tax purposes equal to the difference between the
amount realized on such sale or exchange (other than amounts received that are
attributable to accrued but unpaid interest and taxed as interest) and such U.S.
Holder's adjusted tax basis
                                        81


in the note. Such gain or loss generally will constitute U.S. source capital
gain or loss, and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the note was held by
such U.S. Holder for more than one year. A U.S. Holder's ability to deduct
capital losses against ordinary income is subject to limitations.

     Information reporting of payments of principal and interest within the
United States to non-corporate U.S. Holders generally will be made on Internal
Revenue Service Form 1099, including payments made by wire transfer from outside
the United States to an account in the United States and the payment of proceeds
from the sale of a note effected at a United States office of a broker.

     A U.S. Holder may be subject to backup withholding tax with respect to
interest paid on the notes and to proceeds from the sale, exchange, redemption
or retirement of the note, unless the holder (a) is a corporation or comes
within certain other exempt categories and, when required, demonstrates that
fact or (b) provides a correct taxpayer identification number, certifies that it
has not lost its exemption from backup withholding or has not been notified by
the IRS that it has failed to report any interest or dividends, and otherwise
complies with applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules. A holder
of a note who does not provide us with the holder's correct taxpayer
identification number may be subject to penalties imposed by the IRS.

     Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amount paid as backup
withholding will be creditable against the holder's U.S. federal income tax
liability.

CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

     The following summary describes the principal Canadian federal income tax
considerations under the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "ITA") as of the date of
this prospectus generally applicable to a holder who acquires notes on the
exchange of old notes (the "Exchange") and who, for the purposes of the ITA and
at all relevant times, is not (and is not deemed to be) resident in Canada,
deals at arm's length with IMAX, does not (and is not deemed to) use or hold the
notes in, or in the course of, carrying on a business in Canada, and is not an
insurer that carries on an insurance business in Canada and elsewhere (a
"Holder"). For the purposes of this summary, any reference to notes shall not
include the Additional Notes (as defined in "Description of the Notes").

     This summary is based on the current provisions of the ITA, the regulations
thereunder, all specific proposals to amend the ITA and such regulations
publicly announced by or on behalf of the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to
the date hereof (which amendments this summary presumes are enacted in their
current form), and IMAX's understanding of the published administrative
practices of the Canada Customs and Revenue Agency. This summary does not
otherwise take into account any change in law or administrative practice,
whether by judicial, governmental, legislative or administrative action, nor
does it take into account provincial, territorial or foreign income tax
consequences, which may vary from the Canadian federal income tax considerations
described herein.

     THIS SUMMARY IS OF A GENERAL NATURE ONLY AND IS NOT, AND SHOULD NOT BE
INTERPRETED AS, LEGAL OR TAX ADVICE TO ANY PARTICULAR HOLDER AND NO
REPRESENTATION IS MADE WITH RESPECT TO THE CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX
CONSEQUENCES TO ANY PARTICULAR HOLDER. ACCORDINGLY, HOLDERS OF NOTES SHOULD
CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THEIR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES.

     Under the ITA, the payment by IMAX of interest, principal or premium (if
any) on the notes to a Holder will be exempt from Canadian withholding tax, and
no other taxes on income (including taxable capital gains) under the ITA will be
payable by a Holder in respect of the Exchange, ownership or disposition of the
notes.

                                        82


                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

     Each broker-dealer that receives notes for its own account pursuant to the
exchange offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection
with any resale of such notes. This prospectus, as it may be amended or
supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection
with resales of notes received in exchange for old notes where the old notes
were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading
activities. We have agreed that, for a period of 180 days after the expiration
date of the exchange offer, we will make this prospectus, as amended or
supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such
resale.

     We will not receive any proceeds from any sale of notes by broker-dealers.
Notes received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the exchange
offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the
over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of
options on the notes or a combination of those methods of resale, at market
prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to prevailing market
prices or negotiated prices. Any resale may be made directly to purchasers or to
or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of
commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer or the purchasers of any
of the notes. Any broker-dealer that resells notes that were received by it for
its own account pursuant to the exchange offer and any broker or dealer that
participates in a distribution of the notes may be deemed to be an "underwriter"
within the meaning of the Securities Act and any profit on any resale of notes
and any commissions or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to
be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The letter of transmittal
states that, by acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a
prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an
"underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act.

     For a period of 180 days after the expiration date of the exchange offer,
we will promptly send a reasonable amount of additional copies of this
prospectus and any amendment or supplement to this prospectus to any
broker-dealer that is entitled to use such documents and that requests such
documents in the letter of transmittal. We have agreed to pay all expenses
incident to the exchange offer other than commissions or concessions of any
brokers or dealers and will indemnify the holders of the notes (including any
broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act. We note, however, that in the opinion of the SEC,
indemnification against liabilities under federal securities laws is against
public policy and may be unenforceable.

     The notes have not been and will not be qualified for distribution under
the securities laws of any province or territory of Canada and are being offered
and sold in Canada only in reliance on available prospectus exemptions.

                                 LEGAL MATTERS

     Certain United States legal matters in connection with the validity of the
notes and the accompanying guarantees will be passed upon for us by Shearman &
Sterling LLP, Toronto, Ontario and New York, New York. We have been advised as
to certain Canadian legal matters by McCarthy Tetrault LLP, Toronto, Ontario and
New York, New York.

ITEM 20.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

     Section 124 of the Canada Business Corporations Act ("CBCA") and Section 7
of the IMAX Corporation's By-Law No. 1 provide for the indemnification of
directors and officers of the IMAX Corporation (the "Corporation"). Under these
provisions, the Corporation shall indemnify a director or officer of the
Corporation (or a former director or officer) against all costs, charges and
expenses, including amounts paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment,
reasonably incurred by such director or officer in respect of any civil,
criminal or administrative action or proceeding (other than in respect of an
action by or on behalf of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor) to
which such individual is made a party by reason of his position with the
Corporation, if he fulfills the following two conditions: (a) he acted honestly
and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Corporation; and (b)
in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is
enforced by a monetary penalty, he had reasonable grounds for believing that his
conduct was lawful. In respect of an action by or on behalf of the Corporation
to procure a judgment in its favor, the Corporation, with the approval of a
court, may indemnify a director or officer of the Corporation (or a former
director or officer) against all costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred
by him in connection with such action if he fulfills the conditions set out in
clauses (a) and (b) of the previous sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a
director or officer of the Corporation (or a former director or officer) is
entitled to indemnification from the Corporation in respect of all costs,
charges and expenses reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense
of any civil, criminal or administrative action or proceeding to which he is
made a party by reason of his position with the Corporation if he was not judged
by the court or other competent authority to have committed any fault or omitted
to do anything that the individual ought to have done and he fulfills the
conditions in clauses (a) and (b) of the second sentence of this paragraph.

     Section 7.4 of IMAX Corporation's By-Law No. 1 also provides that, to the
extent permitted by law, no director or officer for the time being of the
Corporation shall be liable for the acts, receipts, neglects or defaults of any
other director or officer or employee or for joining in any receipt or act for
conformity or for any loss, damage or expense happening to the Corporation
through the insufficiency or deficiency of title to any property acquired by the
Corporation or for or on behalf of the Corporation or for the insufficiency or
deficiency of any security in or upon which any of the moneys of or belonging to
the Corporation shall be placed out or invested or for any loss or damage
arising from the bankruptcy, insolvency or tortious act of any person, firm or
body corporate with whom or which any moneys, securities or other assets
belonging to the Corporation shall be lodged or deposited or for any loss,
conversion, misapplication or misappropriation of or any damage resulting from
any dealings with any moneys, securities or other assets belonging to the
Corporation or for any other loss, damage or misfortune whatever which may
happen in the execution of the duties of his respective office or trust or in
relation thereto unless the same shall happen by or through his failure to act
honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Corporation
and in connection therewith to exercise the care, diligence and skill that a
reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances.

     The Corporation maintains directors' and officers' liability insurance
subject to deductibles in respect of SEC claims and claims for wrongful acts
against insured persons.

ITEM 22.  UNDERTAKINGS

     The undersigned registrants hereby undertake:

          (1) That for purposes of determining any liability under the
     Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), each filing of
     the registrants' annual report, as applicable, pursuant to Section 13(a) or
     Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
     "Exchange Act"), (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
     plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is
     incorporated by reference in this registration statement shall be deemed to
     be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein,
     and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
     initial bona fide offering thereof.

          (2) To respond to requests for information that is incorporated by
     reference into the prospectus pursuant to Items 4, 10(b), 11, or 13 of this
     form within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the
     incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means.
     This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the
     effective date of this registration statement through the date of
     responding to the request.

          (3) To supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information
     concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein,
     that was not the subject of and included in this registration statement
     when it became effective.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Corporation, pursuant to the provisions described in Item 20 above, or
otherwise, the Corporation has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In
the event that the claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other
than the payment by the Corporation of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
officer or controlling person of the Corporation in the successful defense of
any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or
controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the
Corporation will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction
the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
of such issue.

                                       II-2
