SECTION 1. Authorized Capital Stock. The total number of shares of capital stock that the Corporation shall have authority to issue is six hundred million and one (600,000,001) shares, consisting of three hundred fifty million (350,000,000) shares of Class A Common Stock, par value of $0.01 per share (“Class A Stock”), one hundred fifty million (150,000,000) shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Class B Stock”), one (1) share of Class C Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Class C Stock” and, together with the Class A Stock and the Class B Stock, “Common Stock”), and one hundred million (100,000,000) shares of Preferred Stock, par value of $0.01 per share (“Preferred Stock”). Subject to Sections 4(c) and 4(d) of this Article IV, the number of authorized shares of any of the Class A Stock, the Class B Stock, the Class C Stock or the Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL (or any successor provision thereto), and no vote of the holders of any of the Class A Stock, Class B Stock, Class C Stock or Preferred Stock voting separately as a class shall be required therefor. Upon this Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation becoming effective pursuant to the DGCL (the “Effective Time”), each share of the Corporation’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Old Common Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be automatically reclassified as and converted into one share of Class B Stock. Any stock certificate that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented shares of Old Common Stock will, from and after the Effective Time, automatically and without the necessity of presenting the same for exchange, represent the same number of shares of Class B Stock.

SECTION 2. Common Stock. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Class A Stock, the Class B Stock and the Class C Stock shall have the same rights and privileges and shall rank equally and share ratably as to all matters.

(b) Subject to Section 2(c) of this Article IV, and subject to the provisions of law and the terms of any outstanding Preferred Stock, dividends or other distributions with respect to the Class A Stock, the Class B Stock and the Class C Stock shall be made in an equal amount per share, at such times and in such amounts as may be determined by the board of directors of the Corporation (the “Board”) and declared out of any funds

lawfully available therefor, and shares of Preferred Stock of any series shall not be entitled to share therein except as otherwise expressly provided in the resolution or resolutions of the Board providing for the issue of such series. Dividends and other distributions with respect to the Class A Stock, the Class B Stock and the Class C Stock shall be payable only when, as and if declared by the Board.

(c) Subject to the provisions of law and the terms of any outstanding Preferred Stock, if at any time a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Class A Stock, Class B Stock or Class C Stock is to be paid in shares of Class A Stock or Class B Stock or any other securities of the Corporation or any other corporation, limited liability company, limited or general partnership, joint venture, association, joint-stock company, trust or legal entity (“Person”) (hereinafter sometimes called a “share distribution”), such share distribution shall be declared and paid only as follows:

(i)

a share distribution consisting of shares of Class A Stock (or Convertible Securities that are convertible into, exchangeable for or evidence the right to purchase shares of Class A Stock) with respect to shares of Class A Stock and Class C Stock and, on an equal per share basis, shares of Class B Stock (or Convertible Securities that are convertible into, exchangeable for or evidence the right to purchase shares of Class B Stock) with respect to shares of Class B Stock; and

(ii)

subject to Section 2(g) of this Article IV, a share distribution consisting of shares of any class or series of securities of the Corporation or any other Person other than Class A Stock, Class B Stock or Class C Stock (and other than Convertible Securities that are convertible into, exchangeable for or evidence the right to purchase shares of Class A Stock, Class B Stock or Class C Stock), on the basis of a distribution of identical securities, on an equal per share basis, with respect to shares of Class A Stock, Class B Stock and Class C Stock; provided, however, that if such share distribution consists of shares of any class or series of securities of the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation not formed for the purpose of circumventing Section 2(g) of this Article IV, then it shall be declared and paid on the basis of a distribution of one class or series of securities with respect to shares of Class A Stock and another class or series of securities with respect to shares of Class B Stock and another class or series of securities with respect to shares of Class C Stock, and the securities so distributed (and, if applicable, the securities into which the distributed securities are convertible, or for which they are exchangeable, or which the distributed securities evidence the right to purchase) shall differ with respect to, but solely with respect to, their relative voting rights and related differences in conversion and share distribution provisions, and all such differences shall be identical to the corresponding differences in voting rights, conversion and share distribution provisions between the Class A Stock, the Class B Stock and the Class C Stock, so as to preserve the relative voting rights of each Class as in effect immediately prior to such share distribution, and such distribution shall be made on an equal per share basis.

As used herein, the term “Subsidiary” means, when used with respect to any Person, (i) a corporation in which such Person and/or one or more Subsidiaries of such Person, directly or indirectly, owns capital stock having a majority of the total voting power in the election of directors (“Voting Power”) of all outstanding shares of all classes and series of capital stock of such corporation entitled generally to vote in such election (“Voting Stock”); and (ii) any other Person (other than a corporation) in which such Person and/or one or more Subsidiaries of such Person, directly or indirectly, has (x) a majority ownership interest or (y) the power to elect or direct the election of a majority of the members of the governing body of such first-named Person.

As used herein, the term “Convertible Securities” shall mean any securities of the Corporation (other than any class of Common Stock) that are convertible into, exchangeable for or evidence the right to purchase any class of Common Stock, whether upon conversion, exercise or exchange, pursuant to anti-dilution provisions of such securities or otherwise.

(d) If the Corporation shall in any manner subdivide or combine the outstanding shares of Class A Stock, Class B Stock or Class C Stock, the outstanding shares of the other classes of Common Stock shall be proportionally subdivided or combined in the same manner and on the same basis as the outstanding shares of Class A Stock, Class B Stock or Class C Stock, as the case may be, that have been subdivided or combined so as to preserve the relative aggregate Voting Power of the outstanding shares of each class and the relative proportion of the equity of the Corporation represented by the outstanding shares of each class and the conversion rights of the outstanding shares of each class, immediately prior to the transaction giving rise to an adjustment pursuant to this paragraph.

(e) Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, subject to any preferential or other amounts to be distributed to the holders of the Preferred Stock and any other class or series of stock then outstanding, the holders of Class A Stock, Class B Stock and Class C Stock shall be entitled to receive all the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders ratably as a single class in proportion to the number of shares held by them.

(f)

(i) Each share of Class B Stock and each share of Class C Stock may at any time be converted by the record holder thereof into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Stock. Shares of Class A Stock may be converted into shares of Class B Stock only as set forth in the proviso to subparagraph (vii) of this subsection (f) and in subparagraph (ix) of this subsection (f). Except as set forth in subparagraphs (vii) and (viii) of this subsection (f) and the proviso to Section 3.02 of the Stockholder Agreement, dated as of October 27, 2004, among the Corporation, DWA Escrow LLLP, M&J K B Limited Partnership, M&J K

Dream Limited Partnership, The JK Annuity Trust, The MK Annuity Trust, Katzenberg 1994 Irrevocable Trust, DG-DW L.P., DW Investment II, Inc., Jeffrey Katzenberg, David Geffen and Paul Allen (the “Stockholder Agreement”), the conversion right set forth in the first sentence of this subparagraph (i) shall be exercised by the surrender of the certificate representing such share of Class B Stock or Class C Stock to be converted to the Corporation at any time during normal business hours at the principal executive offices of the Corporation, or if an agent for the registration of transfer of shares of Class B Stock or Class C Stock is then duly appointed and acting (said agent being hereinafter called the “Transfer Agent”), then at the office of the Transfer Agent, accompanied by a written notice of the election by the record holder thereof to convert and (if so required by the Corporation or the Transfer Agent) by instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation and to the Transfer Agent, duly executed by such holder or such holder’s duly authorized attorney, and together with any necessary transfer tax stamps or funds therefor, if required pursuant to subparagraph (v) of this subsection (f).

(ii) As promptly as practicable after the surrender for conversion (or deemed surrender, as set forth in the proviso to Section 3.02 of the Stockholder Agreement) of a certificate or certificates representing shares of Class B Stock or Class C Stock in the manner provided in paragraph (i) of this subsection (f), or the automatic conversion of a share or shares of Class A Stock, Class B Stock or Class C Stock as set forth in subparagraphs (vii), (viii) and (ix) of this subsection (f), and the payment in cash of any amount required by the provisions of paragraphs (i) and (v) of this subsection (f), the Corporation will deliver or cause to be delivered at the office of the Transfer Agent to or upon the written order of the holder thereof, a certificate or certificates representing the number of full shares of Class A Stock or Class B Stock issuable upon such conversion, issued in such name or names as such holder may direct. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of the surrender (or deemed surrender, as set forth in the proviso to Section 3.02 of the Stockholder Agreement) of the certificates representing shares of Class B Stock or Class C Stock, or the automatic conversion of a share or shares of Class A Stock, Class B Stock or Class C Stock as set forth in subparagraphs (vii), (viii) and (ix) of this subsection (f), and all rights of the holder of such shares as such holder shall cease at such time and the person or persons in whose name or names the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Class A Stock or Class B Stock are to be issued shall be treated for all purposes as having become the record holder or holders of such shares of Class A Stock or Class B Stock at such time; provided, however, if any such surrender or such deemed surrender or such automatic conversion and payment is made on any date when the stock transfer books of the Corporation shall be closed, the person or persons in whose name or names the certificate or certificates representing shares of Class A Stock or Class B Stock are to be issued as the record holder or holders thereof shall be treated for all purposes as having become the record holder or holders of such shares immediately prior to the close of business on the next succeeding day on which such stock transfer books are open.

(iii) No adjustments in respect of dividends shall be made upon the conversion of any share of Class A Stock, Class B Stock or Class C Stock; provided, however, that if a share shall be converted subsequent to the record date for the payment of a dividend or other distribution on shares of Class A Stock, Class B Stock or Class C Stock, as applicable, but prior to such payment, the registered holder of such share at the close of business on such record date shall be entitled to receive the dividend or other distribution payable on such share upon the date set for payment of such dividend or other distribution notwithstanding the conversion thereof or the Corporation’s default in payment of the dividend due on such date (provided, however, that if the applicable distribution is a share distribution then the type of security distributed in respect of such share shall be the type that would have been distributed had the conversion been made prior to such record date).

(iv) The Corporation will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for the purpose of issuance upon conversion of the outstanding shares of Class B Stock and Class C Stock, such number of shares of Class A Stock as shall be issuable upon the conversion of all such outstanding shares; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude the Corporation from satisfying its obligations in respect of the conversion of the outstanding shares of Class B Stock and Class C Stock by delivery of purchased shares of Class A Stock which are held in the treasury of the Corporation. All shares of Class A Stock and Class B Stock which shall be issued upon conversion of the shares of Class A Stock, Class B Stock and Class C Stock will, upon issue, be fully paid and nonassessable and not subject to any preemptive rights.

(v) The issuance of certificates for shares of Class A Stock and Class B Stock upon conversion of shares of Class A Stock, Class B Stock or Class C Stock shall be made without charge for any stamp or other similar tax in respect of such issuance. However, if any such certificate is to be issued in a name other than that of the holder of the share or shares of Class A Stock, Class B Stock or Class C Stock converted, the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall pay to the Corporation the amount of any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in such issuance or shall establish to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has been paid.

(vi) Any shares of Class B Stock or Class C Stock which shall have been converted into Class A Stock at any time pursuant to the provisions of this subsection (f) shall, after such conversion, be retired. Any shares of Class A Stock which shall have been converted into Class B Stock at any time pursuant to the provisions of the proviso to subparagraph (vii) or the provisions of subparagraph (ix) of this subsection (f) shall, after such conversion, be retired.

(vii) Following consummation of the Holdco Contribution (as defined in the Formation Agreement), in the event that a holder of Class B Stock, other than DWA Escrow LLLP, (x) is not or ceases to be a Permitted Holder (including upon the death of a Permitted Holder) or (y) Transfers any shares of Class B Stock

other than a Transfer to a Permitted Holder or in a Permitted Tender Offer, then such shares of Class B Stock held by such holder or so Transferred, as applicable, shall automatically, without any further act or deed on the part of the Corporation or any other Person, be converted into shares of Class A Stock on a one-for-one basis; provided, however, that if the special call right set forth in Section 2.04 of the Stockholder Agreement, dated as of October 27, 2004, among DWA Escrow LLLP, M&J K B Limited Partnership, M&J K Dream Limited Partnership, The JK Annuity Trust, The MK Annuity Trust, Katzenberg 1994 Irrevocable Trust, DG DW L.P., Jeffrey Katzenberg and David Geffen (the “Class B Stockholder Agreement”) is exercised and consummated pursuant to the terms of such Section 2.04 within 45 days following such automatic conversion (as extended to the extent necessary to obtain any required antitrust or other required governmental approvals), then, upon the Transfer to the exercising Principal Holder (as defined in the Class B Stockholder Agreement) or its designee that is also a Permitted Holder, such shares of Class A Stock so Transferred shall automatically, without any further act or deed on the part of the Corporation or any other Person, be converted back into shares of Class B Stock on a one-for-one basis.

In addition, on the first date after the Final Allocation that Paul Allen or Persons Controlled By Paul Allen do not continue to own (including upon the death of Paul Allen) at least an aggregate number of shares of Common Stock equal to one-third (1/3) of the sum of the total number of shares of Common Stock (A) held of record by Paul Allen and Persons Controlled By Paul Allen immediately after the Final Allocation and (B) held of record by DWA Escrow LLLP and allocated to Paul Allen or Persons Controlled By Paul Allen in the Final Allocation (as such one-third (1/3) number may be adjusted from time to time to take into account any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction), all shares of Class C Stock outstanding at such time shall automatically, without any further act or deed on the part of the Corporation or any other Person, be converted into shares of Class A Stock on a one-for-one basis. The date of conversion of the Class C Stock whether pursuant to this subparagraph (viii) or subparagraph (i) of this subsection (f) is referred to as the “Class C Conversion Date”.

As used in this Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the term “entire Board” means the total number of directors that the Corporation would have if there were no vacancies or unfilled newly created directorships.

(b) Directors shall be elected at each annual meeting of stockholders, and each director elected shall hold office until such director’s successor has been elected and qualified, subject, however, to earlier death, resignation or removal from office.

SECTION 2. Removal; Filling of Newly Created Directorships and Vacancies. (a) Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding and subject to Section 4(e) of Article IV, any director or the entire Board may be removed, with or without cause, by the affirmative vote of a majority of the combined Voting Power of the outstanding Voting Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, whenever holders of outstanding shares of one or more series of Preferred Stock are entitled to elect directors of the Corporation pursuant to the provisions contained in the resolution or resolutions of the Board providing for the establishment of any such series, any such director of the Corporation so elected may be removed in accordance with the provisions of such resolution or resolutions.

(b) Except as otherwise provided for or fixed by or pursuant to the provisions of Article IV of this Restated Certificate of Incorporation relating to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock and subject to Section 4(e) of Article IV, (A) newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors shall be filled by the Board by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office, or by the stockholders by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the combined Voting Power of the Voting Stock, voting together as a single class and (B) any vacancies on the Board resulting from death, resignation, removal or other cause

shall be filled by the Board by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office, even though less than a quorum of the Board, or by a sole remaining director, or by the stockholders by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the combined Voting Power of the Voting Stock, voting together as a single class.

Subject to Section 2 and Section 3 of Article VIII and Article IX of this Restated Certificate of Incorporation, advance notice of nominations for the election of directors shall be given in the manner and to the extent provided in the By-laws of the Corporation.

SECTION 4. Limitation on Director Liability. To the fullest extent that the DGCL or any other law of the State of Delaware as it exists or as it may hereafter be amended permits the limitation or elimination of the liability of directors, no director of the Corporation shall be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. No amendment to or repeal of this Section 4 of this Article VI shall apply to or have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of any director of the Corporation for or with respect to any acts or omissions of such director occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

SECTION 5. Composition of Certain Committees of the Board. (a) Until the earlier of the Independence Date (as defined below) and the date that no shares of Class B Stock shall remain outstanding, the nominating and corporate governance committee of the Board shall be composed solely of (i) the director then in office who was designated as the JK Designee under the Stockholder Agreement, (ii) the director then in office who was designated as the DG Designee under the Stockholder Agreement (in each case for so long as the JK Designee and the DG Designee, as applicable, shall be entitled to remain on the Board in accordance with the Stockholder Agreement) and (iii) a director duly appointed by the Board. As used herein, the term “Independence Date” shall mean the date the Corporation, in the opinion of counsel to the Corporation, shall be required by law or the rules of any applicable securities exchange to have a nominating and corporate governance committee comprised solely of “independent directors” as defined by the requirements of law or such securities exchange.

(b) In the event that the Board shall form an executive committee, or a committee that performs functions substantially similar to an executive committee, the JK Designee, the DG Designee and the Class C Director (if any) shall be included on such committee of the Board (for so long as such committee shall be in existence and, in the

case of the JK Designee and the DG Designee, such Designee shall be entitled to remain on the Board in accordance with the Stockholder Agreement, and, in the case of the Class C Director, the Class C Conversion Date shall not have occurred). For purposes of the preceding sentence, an “executive committee” of the Board shall mean any committee of the Board that, to the extent permitted by law, exercises substantially all of the authority of the Board in the management of the business and affairs of the Company when the Board is not in session.

In anticipation that the majority of the capital stock of the Corporation will cease to be owned, directly or indirectly, by Jeffrey Katzenberg, David Geffen and Persons Controlled By them (collectively, the “Founding Stockholders”), but that the Founding Stockholders will remain, directly or indirectly, stockholders of the Corporation, and in anticipation that the Corporation and the Founding Stockholders may engage, directly or indirectly, in the same or similar activities or lines of business and have an interest in the same areas of corporate opportunities, and in recognition of the benefits to be derived by the Corporation through its continued contractual, corporate and business relations with the Founding Stockholders (including potential service of officers, directors, members, stockholders, partners or employees of the Founding Stockholders as officers, directors and employees of the Corporation), the provisions of this Article VII are set forth to regulate, define and guide, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, the conduct of certain affairs of the Corporation as they may involve the Founding Stockholders and their respective officers, directors, members, partners and employees and the powers, rights and duties of the Corporation and the Founding Stockholders and their respective officers, directors, employees, members, stockholders and partners in connection therewith. The following provisions shall be applicable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Delaware law.

None of the Founding Stockholders or any director, officer, member, partner, stockholder or employee of any Founding Stockholder (each a “Specified Party”), independently or with others, shall have any duty to refrain from engaging directly or indirectly in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as the Corporation and that might be in direct or indirect competition with the Corporation. In the event that any Founding Stockholder or Specified Party acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter that may be a corporate opportunity for any Founding Stockholder or Specified Party, as applicable, and the Corporation, none of the Founding Stockholders or Specified Parties shall have any duty to communicate or offer such corporate opportunity to the Corporation, and any Founding Stockholder and Specified Party shall be entitled to pursue or acquire such corporate opportunity for itself or to direct such corporate opportunity to another person or entity and the Corporation shall have no right in or to such corporate opportunity or to any income or proceeds derived therefrom.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 2 and 3(a) of this Article VII, the Corporation does not renounce any interest or expectancy it may have in any corporate opportunity that is offered to any Founding Stockholder or Specified Party, if such opportunity is expressly offered to such Founding Stockholder or Specified Party solely in, and as a direct result of, his or her capacity as a director, officer or employee of the Corporation.

(c) No amendment or repeal of this Section 3 of this Article VII shall apply to or have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of any Founding Stockholder or Specified Party for or with respect to any corporate opportunity of which such Founding Stockholder or Specified Party becomes aware prior to such amendment or repeal.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article VII, if the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation shall be a Specified Party by virtue of his relationship to DreamWorks L.L.C., then any corporate opportunity offered to such officer shall be deemed to have been offered to such officer in his capacity as an officer of the Corporation (and shall belong to the Corporation) unless such offer clearly and expressly is presented to such officer solely in his capacity as an officer, employee, director or member of DreamWorks L.L.C.

SECTION 4. Certain Matters Deemed Not Corporate Opportunities. (a) In addition to and notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article VII, a corporate opportunity shall not be deemed to belong to the Corporation, and the Corporation hereby renounces any interest therein, if it is a business opportunity that the Corporation is not financially able or contractually permitted or legally able to undertake, or that is, from its nature, not in the line of the Corporation’s business or is of no practical advantage to it or that is one in which the Corporation has no interest or reasonable expectancy.

(b) For purposes of this Article VII only, (i) the term “Corporation” shall mean the Corporation and all corporations, limited liability companies, partnerships, joint ventures, associations and other entities in which the Corporation beneficially owns (directly or indirectly) fifty percent (50%) or more of the outstanding voting stock, voting power or similar voting interests, except that for purposes of determining those persons who are directors of the Corporation, such term shall mean the Corporation without regard to any other entities in which it may hold an interest, and (ii) the term “Founding Stockholder” shall mean a Founding Stockholder and all corporations, limited liability companies, partnerships, joint ventures, associations and other entities (other than, if applicable, the Corporation) in which such Founding Stockholder beneficially owns (directly or indirectly) fifty percent (50%) or more of the outstanding voting stock, voting power or similar interests and shall also include those entities that constitute its corporate members or partners.

SECTION 5. Expiration of Certain Provisions. Notwithstanding anything in this Restated Certificate of Incorporation to the contrary, the provisions of this Article VII shall expire as to any Founding Stockholder on (with respect to any corporate opportunity arising on or after) the date that both (i) such Founding Stockholder ceases to own beneficially Common Stock representing at least five percent (5%) of the Voting Power of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Corporation and (ii) no person is a Specified Party. Notwithstanding anything in this Restated Certificate of Incorporation to the contrary, the provisions of this Article VII shall expire as to any Specified Party on the date that such person ceases to be a Specified Party. Neither the alteration, amendment, change or repeal of any provision of this Article VII nor the adoption of any provision of this Restated Certificate of Incorporation inconsistent with any provision of this Article VII shall eliminate or reduce the effect of this Article VII in respect of any matter occurring, or any cause of action, suit or claim that, but for this Article VII, would accrue or arise, prior to such alteration, amendment, repeal or adoption.

The books of the Corporation may be kept (subject to any provision of Delaware law) outside the State of Delaware at such place or places as may be designated from time to time by the Board or in the By-laws of the Corporation. Elections of directors need not be by written ballot unless the By-laws of the Corporation shall so provide.

SECTION 2. Special Meetings.

SECTION 3. Advance Notice Requirements.

Until the Class C Conversion Date, nomination of the Class C Director by the record holder of the outstanding shares of Class C Stock shall not be subject to the advance notice procedures of the By-laws of the Corporation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, solely for purposes of this Section 3 of Article VIII, the foregoing thirty percent (30%) requirement shall not cease to be satisfied as a result of a conversion of shares of Class B Stock into shares of Class A Stock pursuant to Section 2(f)(vii) of Article IV which results from the death of Jeffrey Katzenberg or David Geffen (as applicable) or a judgment of a governmental entity or other involuntary action unless the special call right set forth in Section 2.04 of the Class B Stockholder Agreement is not exercised and consummated within the time period provided in Section 2(f)(vii) of Article IV.
