Cineline India Ltd. Company History and Annual Growth Details

Our Company was incorporated on May 22, 2002 under the Companies
Act as Cineline Entertainment (India) Private Limited to primarily carry on
the business of building, owning, and operating Multiplexes, Theatres and
entertainment centres. The name of our Company was changed to Cinemax
Cinemas (India) Private Limited on December 23, 2005. We were converted
to a public limited company by a resolution of the members passed at the
AGM held on June 12, 2006. The fresh certificate of incorporation consequent
to the change of name of our Company was issued by the RoC on July 27, 2006.

Our Company was incorporated with its registered office at Acme Commercial
Arcade, 4th Floor Trikamdas Road, Kandivali (W) Mumbai-400067, which was
subsequently shifted to 5th Floor, 349 Business Point, Western Express Highway,
Andheri (East), Mumbai 400069 consequent to the approval of the Board on March
28, 2006. Pursuant to the approval of our Board on August 25, 2006, the registered
office of our Company was shifted from 5th Floor, 349 Business Point, Western
Express Highway, Andheri (East), Mumbai 400069 to 805, 8th Floor, 349 Business

Our Company had carried out a restructuring exercise, wherein seven of our group
companies i.e. Rupam Private Limited, Hariyash Theatres Private Limited, Kanakia
Shelters Private Limited, Kanakia Creators Private Limited, Vrushti Theatres Private
Limited, Cineline Cinemas (India) Private Limited, and Cineline Multiplex Theatres
(India) Private Limited (hereinafter referred to as the "merged entities") were merged
with us with effect from April 1, 2006. The High Court of Bombay sanctioned the
Scheme of Amalgamation on March 24, 2006. The restructuring exercise was done
with a view to consolidate the Theatres and Multiplexes operated by us through
various subsidiaries under the brand name of CINEMAX and also to facilitate cost
effective regulatory compliance. Some of the salient features of the Scheme of
Amalgamation are as follows.

1. The entire business and whole of the undertakings of Rupam Private Limited,
Hariyash Theatres Private Limited, Kanakia Shelters Private Limited, Kanakia
Creators Private Limited, Vrushti Theatres Private Limited, Cineline Cinemas (India)
Private Limited and Cineline Multiplex Theatres (India) Private Limited, as on the
appointed date of April 1, 2006 was transferred to and vested in our Company so
as to become assets and properties of our Company.

2. The entire equity share capital of Rupam Private Limited, Hariyash Theatres
Private Limited, Kanakia Shelters Private Limited, Kanakia Creators Private Limited,
Vrushti Theatres Private Limited and Cineline Multiplex Theatres (India) Private
Limited was being held by our Company and subsequently on the Scheme of
Amalgamation becoming effective, stood automatically cancelled. However, we
along with Rupam Private Limited, Hariyash Theatres Private Limited, Vrushti
Theatres Private Limited and Kanakia Shelters Private Limited held collectively
only 71.64% of the equity share capital of Cineline Cinemas (India) Private
Limited and the remaining 28.36% equity shares was being held by the other
shareholders, who were issued twelve redeemable non-convertible Preference
Shares of Rs 10 each of our Company for every one equity share held by them
in Cineline Cinemas (India) Private Limited.

Currently, we have three wholly owned subsidiaries namely Vista Entertainment
Private Limited, Growel Entertainment Private Limited and Nikmo Finance Private
Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Growel Entertainment Private Limited. Vista
Entertainment Private Limited and Nikmo Finance Private Limited operate our
Multiplexes at Versova i.e Cinemax-Versova and at Kandivali (East) i.e Cinemax-
Kandivali (East) respectively, pursuant to business conducting agreements. For
