Dear Shareholders: April 22, 2014

The continued growth in the IMAX business demonstrates the strong consumer appetite globally for the immersive IMAX^® Experience. At the end of fiscal 2013, our network consisted of 837 theaters spanning 57 countries. We signed deals for a record 277 theaters across 31 countries in 2013, resulting in a backlog exceeding 400 theaters, which is the largest in company history.

Our success stems from our commitment to offer our customers the best, most distinguished cinema-going experience in the world. The Company’s long-term focus continues to revolve around driving both innovation and differentiation in the cinema space; whether it be developing a world-class laser projection system, improving our state of the art sound system, or bringing the brand into the home. Our passion for differentiation and drive to enhance every facet of our platform has been acknowledged by our partners around the world, including theater exhibitors, film studios, filmmakers and ultimately, consumers. Our passion has facilitated growth and awareness of the IMAX brand on a global level.

I have been writing these letters for a number of years and, for the first time ever, our international box office exceeded that of our domestic box office. That coupled with the fact that 90% of our backlog is slated for international markets has required us to think and operate more globally. For example, our increased international presence has driven us to be more global in selecting our portfolio of films each year. We are now tailoring our film selection based on cultural preferences, and release dates throughout the world. We released 8 local language films in 2013 across 5 countries, and our most recent local language film, Monkey King, broke the opening day record for an IMAX film in China. While tent-pole Hollywood titles continue to be synonymous with IMAX, I believe the company can benefit tremendously from working with studios and filmmakers not just in Hollywood, but across the world. For these reasons, a key initiative for the company in 2014 is to think and operate more globally.

China was clearly a big focus for the Company in 2013 as demonstrated by the 161 theater signings that occurred in the year. At the end of the year we had 150 commercial theaters operating in the Greater China region, with an additional 237 in backlog. Looking at the broader market, China finished 2013 with roughly 18,000 screens and a year-end box office total of $3.6 billion, up 27% from 2012. Considering China’s screen count is half of that of the United States, with a population about 4 times its size, it is safe to assume that there is ample room for growth in that market. Moreover, supportive regulatory policies, such as an increase in the foreign-film quota in 2012 and government support for the cinema industry, has resulted in an increase in both Hollywood movies being played in the country as well as an increase in domestic movie production. We expect these trends to continue and believe IMAX is well positioned to continue to grow with the broader market.

Much of the success we have had in China can be attributed to our ongoing efforts to build local partnerships and create win-win opportunities for us and our Chinese partners, such as Wanda, TCL, local studios, and most recently, China Media Capital and FountainVest, to whom we have sold a 20% stake in our IMAX China business. The recent transaction with China Media Capital and FountainVest introduces Chinese ownership into our IMAX China business that we believe will further strengthen our political and industry relationships in the country as well as help pave the way for a potential IPO of the China business in the future. These investors bring a wealth of knowledge and experience and we are very excited to bring them into the IMAX family. We will continue to pursue local partners with interests aligned with IMAX. For it is these partnerships, coupled with a cutting edge product, that has facilitated the tremendous growth we have seen in China over the last several years.

While China represents an important growth area for IMAX, we operate in 56 additional countries, all of which present unique opportunities for the Company. For instance, we installed our first theater in Germany, at the iconic Potsdamer Platz in Berlin, which is turning out to be quite successful. We also installed an IMAX system at the TCL Chinese Theatre on Hollywood Blvd, arguably the most famous cinema venue in the world. We have already hosted a number of premieres at this theater, including the re-release of The Wizard of Oz in September 2013, an event that garnered attention from around the world and helped further strengthen our brand. Although I would love to highlight every iconic location we have become a part of, there are just too many to name. The Company also installed its first screens in Switzerland, South Africa, and Jordan and signed deals in many other new countries. Penetrating new territories is very exciting for us, as these locations can act as reference theaters and often lead to more theaters down the road as the brand proves its inherent value. We remain in discussions with exhibitors around the world.

In addition to our focus on commercial theater network growth, we have also started to look at new business ventures that are aligned with our core capabilities and that could deliver growth for the business over the long-term. To that end, in October 2013, we announced the formation of a Joint Venture with TCL, one of the largest electronics manufacturers in China, to develop a premium home theater product. Our intention is to develop a cutting edge, end-to-end home offering with the quality and differentiation for which IMAX has become known. As part of our home theater offering, we also intend to provide content through our partnership with Prima, who delivers movies day-and-date to the home. We plan on initially rolling out our home theater product first in China, the Middle East and Russia, followed by the rest of the world.

2013 Financial Performance

Our financial results for the full year of 2013 demonstrated the inherent leverage in our business model and the benefits of a global film portfolio that is tailored to the diverse cultural preferences of, and the specific film release dates in, the countries in which IMAX theaters operate.

• Full year 2013 box office of $727 million, a 17% increase over 2012

• Adjusted EBITDA of $113.2 million was up 6% over 2012 ⁽¹⁾

• Global per screen average of $1.15 million is in line with 2012 and in the same range over the last 5 years, (excluding 2010, which had a higher PSA as a result of Avatar)

2013 Network Growth and Penetration

During 2013, we continued to penetrate markets around the world, further establishing IMAX’s global presence.

• IMAX signed deals for 277 theaters across 31 countries, 246 of which were for new systems

• Backlog of 407 theaters, 384 of which are for new systems, the largest in Company history

• The Company installed 110 new commercial systems, bringing total commercial network to 701 theaters

Fiscal year 2013 was a pivotal year for IMAX in every sense of the word. We added 112 new theaters, while signing deals for 277 systems. Our backlog, which is ultimately our pipeline for future growth, is the largest in the Company’s 45 year history. Understanding network growth is only as valuable as the box office it generates, I would like to point out our per screen averages. In 2009, our commercial network consisted of 288 theaters resulting in a year-end global per screen average of roughly $1.2 million. Four years later, our network has grown by over 143%, yet we have been able to maintain a consistent per screen average in the neighborhood of $1.1 to $1.2 million, a success I can attribute to our global portfolio approach to our movies and the differentiated experience an IMAX film delivers.

By continually improving and monitoring every aspect of our end-to-end solution, we have been able to preserve the consumer’s desire for The IMAX Experience^®. IMAX is not just about a big screen. Everything from the screen to the projectors, the sound, the theater geometry and the film itself is proprietary. The performance of every theater in every country is monitored 24/7 by our Network Operations Center (NOC), to ensure we maintain the highest quality experience for our viewers. We digitally re-master all of our films, we work with the most prestigious filmmakers in the world, and in some cases, are involved in the film capture stages. When you take a step back and look at everything we are doing, I think it is clear why we have been able to grow at the rate we have, and why our customers keep coming back. IMAX is the only end-to-end solution in the market today and the experience it provides is something special and different, and that is where we focus our attention.

As I mentioned, IMAX is constantly growing, not just from a network perspective, but also a technology perspective. We are on schedule to roll out our world-class laser projection system, at the end of 2014, which will include an upgraded sound system as well. The added brightness and contrast is truly something special and I believe our customers and partners will agree. It will offer not only a heightened experience in our largest auditoriums, but will complete our transition from a film to digital world.

I would also like to point out the tremendous partnerships we have built and maintained with exhibitors, studios, filmmakers, and investors around the world. We view every relationship and every customer, as a long-term partnership. We are in this business together and when one of us succeeds, we all succeed. It is this philosophy that has facilitated our growth and keeps our partners in the IMAX business. I want to thank these partners for their ongoing support and belief in our brand.

There are so many exciting endeavors going on at IMAX right now that it is difficult to highlight them all. I owe tremendous thanks to the persistent commitment of our employees who have made all of this possible. I am incredibly lucky to work alongside so much talent and seeing the passion for excellence that exists within this Company is motivating.

On behalf of the Company, I also want to thank our shareholders for their continued support, and we look forward to the years ahead.

Sincerely,

/s/ Richard L. Gelfond

GENERAL INFORMATION

This proxy circular and proxy statement (the “Circular”) is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the management of the Company of proxies to be used at the Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders of IMAX Corporation (the “Company”), which will be held at the Hudson Hotel (Hudson Room), 356 West 58^th Street, New York, NY 10019, on Monday, June 2, 2014 at 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) (the “Special Meeting”), or at any continuation, postponement or adjournment thereof.

The Notice of Annual and Special Meeting, the definitive proxy circular and proxy statement and the form of proxy (the “Form of Proxy”) are intended to be released on or about April 22, 2014 to holders of the Company’s common shares (the “Common Shares”).

Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the Annual & Special Meeting to be held on June 2, 2014

Pursuant to the requirement promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the Company has elected to provide access to the Company’s proxy materials by sending you this full set of proxy materials, including a form of proxy or voting instruction form. You are encouraged to access and review all of the important information contained in the proxy materials before submitting a proxy or voting at the Special Meeting. The definitive proxy materials will be available on the internet at https://www.imax.com/corporate/investors/shareholder-meeting.

Regardless of the number of Common Shares you hold, your role as a shareholder is very important and the Board of Directors strongly encourages you to exercise your right to vote.

INFORMATION ON VOTING

Who can Vote

The Board of Directors has fixed April 4, 2014 as the record date for the Special Meeting. Each Common Share entitles the holder to one vote on all matters presented at the Special Meeting. As of April 4, 2014, the Company had 68,173,167 Common Shares issued and outstanding. You are entitled to vote at the Special Meeting if you were a holder of record of Common Shares as of the close of business on April 4, 2014. You are entitled to one vote on each proposal for each Common Share you held on the record date. Your Common Shares may be voted at the Special Meeting only if you are present in person or your Common Shares are represented by a valid proxy.

Difference between a Shareholder of Record and a Beneficial Holder

If your Common Shares are registered directly in your name, you are considered the shareholder of record with respect to those Common Shares.

If your Common Shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank, trust or other nominee, then the broker, bank, trust or other nominee is considered to be the shareholder of record with respect to those Common Shares. However, you are still considered the beneficial owner of those Common Shares, and your Common Shares are said to be held in “street name”. Beneficial holders generally cannot submit a proxy or vote their Common Shares directly and must instead instruct the broker, bank, trust or other nominee on how to vote their Common Shares using the methods described below in “Voting by Beneficial Holders”.

VOTING BY SHAREHOLDERS OF RECORD

The following instructions are for shareholders of record only. If you are a beneficial holder (your Common Shares are held in “street name”), please follow your broker’s instructions on how to vote your Common Shares. See description in “Voting by Beneficial Holders” on page 3.

Voting in Person

Shareholders of record may vote by attending the Special Meeting and voting the Common Shares registered in their name on resolutions put before the Special Meeting. If you are a shareholder of record who will attend and vote in person at the Special Meeting, you do not need to complete or return the Form of Proxy. Please register your attendance with the scrutineer, Computershare Investor Services Inc. (“Computershare”), upon your arrival at the Special Meeting.

Voting by Proxy

If you are a shareholder of record but do not plan to attend the Special Meeting in person, you may vote by proxy. There are three ways to vote by proxy:

1

Mail – You may vote by completing, dating and signing the enclosed Form of Proxy and promptly returning it, in the preaddressed envelope provided to you, to Computershare, no later than 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on Thursday, May 29, 2014, or on the second last business day prior to any postponed or adjourned meeting.

Telephone – You may vote by telephone from within the United States or Canada by calling the toll free number shown on the Form of Proxy no later than 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on Thursday, May 29, 2014, or on the second last business day prior to any postponed or adjourned meeting. Please refer to the holder account number and access number provided on the Form of Proxy.

Internet – You may vote over the internet by following the login and voting procedures described on the Form of Proxy. Please refer to the holder account number and access number provided on the Form of Proxy. Detailed voting instructions will then be provided via the internet to those who have completed the login procedure. You may vote (and revoke a previous vote) over the internet at any time before 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on Thursday, May 29, 2014, or on the second last business day prior to any postponed or adjourned meeting.

The internet voting procedure is designed to authenticate shareholders’ identities, to allow shareholders to vote their Common Shares and to confirm that shareholders’ votes have been recorded properly. Shareholders who submit a proxy through the internet should be aware that they may incur costs to access the internet, such as usage charges from telephone companies or internet service providers and that these costs must be borne by the shareholder. Also, please be aware that the Company is not involved in the operation of the internet voting procedure and cannot take responsibility for any access or internet service interruptions that may occur or any inaccuracies or erroneous or incomplete information that may appear.

What is a Proxy?

A proxy is a document that authorizes another person to attend the Special Meeting and cast votes on behalf of a shareholder of record at the Special Meeting. If you are a shareholder of record, you can use the accompanying Form of Proxy. You may also use any other legal form of proxy.

How do you Appoint a Proxyholder?

Your proxyholder is the person you appoint to cast your votes for you at the Special Meeting. The persons named in the enclosed Form of Proxy are directors and officers of the Company. You have the right to appoint one of the persons designated as proxyholders in the accompanying Form of Proxy or any other person, who need not be a shareholder of the Company, to attend and act on your behalf at the Special Meeting.

Your proxy authorizes the proxyholder to vote and otherwise act for you at the Special Meeting, including any continuation of the Special Meeting if it is adjourned.

How will a Proxyholder Vote?

If you mark on the proxy how you want to vote on a particular issue (by checking FOR, AGAINST, WITHHOLD, or ABSTAIN), your proxyholder must cast your votes as instructed. If you vote “WITHHOLD” on the proxy it is equivalent to voting “ABSTAIN”, and you will be abstaining from voting, though you will be treated as present for the purposes of determining a quorum.

The person appointed as proxyholder has discretionary authority and may vote the Common Shares represented thereby as such person considers best with respect to amendments or variations to matters identified in the Notice of Annual and Special Meeting, and with respect to any other matter which may properly come before the Special Meeting. As of the date of this Circular, the management of the Company is not aware of any such amendment, variation or other matter proposed or likely to come before the Special Meeting. If any amendments are proposed to these matters, or if any other matters properly arise at the Special Meeting, your proxyholder can generally vote your Common Shares as he or she sees fit.

If you do NOT mark on the proxy how you intend to vote on a particular matter, your proxyholder is entitled to vote your Common Shares as he or she sees fit. If your proxy does not specify how you intend to vote on any particular matter, and if you have authorized a director or officer of the Company to act as your proxyholder, your Common Shares will be voted at the Special Meeting as follows:

• FOR the election of the nominees named in this Circular as directors;

• FOR the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as auditors and authorizing the directors to fix the auditors’ remuneration; and

• FOR the confirmation of amendments to By-Law No. 1 of the Company.

For more information about these matters, please see “Item No. 1—Election of Directors” on page 6, “Item No. 2—Appointment of Auditors” on page 11, and “Item No. 3—Confirmation of Amendments to By-Law No. 1” on page 11.

2

How do you Revoke your Proxy?

Any proxy given pursuant to this solicitation may be revoked by the person giving it any time before the Special Meeting by depositing an instrument in writing (including another proxy) executed by the shareholder or the shareholder’s attorney authorized in writing at: (i) the registered office of the Company, IMAX Corporation, 2525 Speakman Drive, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, L5K 1B1, Attention: Corporate Secretary, at any time up to and including 2:00 p.m., (Eastern Time), on the last business day prior to the date of the Special Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof; or (ii) with the chairman of the Special Meeting on the day of the Special Meeting or at any adjournment or postponement thereof; or (iii) in any other manner permitted by law, including attending the Special Meeting in person. If you revoke your proxy and do not replace it with another form of proxy that has been properly deposited, you may still vote Common Shares registered in person at the Special Meeting.

Confidentiality of Voting

Computershare counts and tabulates proxies in a manner that preserves the confidentiality of your votes. Proxies will not be submitted to management unless:

• there is a proxy contest;

• the proxy contains comments clearly intended for management; or

• it is necessary to determine a proxy’s validity or to enable management and/or the Board of Directors to meet their legal obligations to shareholders or to discharge their legal duties to the Company.

Solicitation of Proxies

While management intends to solicit most proxies by mail, some proxies may be solicited by telephone or other personal contact by directors, officers or employees of the Company. Directors, officers and employees will not receive any additional compensation for such activity. The Company will, upon request, pay brokers and certain other persons who hold the Company’s Common Shares for others their reasonable expenses for sending proxy materials to the beneficial owners of the Company’s Common Shares. The cost of solicitation will be borne by the Company. While the Company has not chosen to engage the services of a proxy solicitor to aid in the solicitation of proxies and verify records relating to the solicitation at this time, should the Company decide to do so, it will bear all costs of such solicitation.

VOTING BY BENEFICIAL HOLDERS

Copies of this solicitation have been distributed to your broker, bank or other intermediary who are required to deliver them to, and seek voting instructions from, beneficial holders (shareholders who hold Common Shares in “street name”). Intermediaries often use a service company such as Broadridge Investor Communications (“Broadridge”) to forward meeting materials to beneficial holders. If you are a beneficial holder, you can vote your Common Shares through your intermediary by following the instructions your intermediary provides you with or at the Special Meeting. As a beneficial holder, while you are invited to attend the Special Meeting, you will not be entitled to vote at the Special Meeting unless you make the necessary arrangements with your intermediary to do so.

Voting in Person

A beneficial holder who receives a Voting Instruction Form and who wishes to attend and vote at the Special Meeting in person (or have another person attend and vote on his or her behalf), should strike out the appointees named in the Voting Instruction Form and insert his or her name (or such other person’s name) in the blank space provided and follow the corresponding instructions provided by the intermediary.

Voting through an Intermediary

Through an Intermediary – As a beneficial holder, you will be given a Voting Instruction Form by your intermediary which must be submitted in accordance with the instructions provided by the intermediary. You must follow the intermediary’s instructions (which allow the completion of the Voting Instruction Form by mail, telephone or internet). Occasionally, as a beneficial holder you may be given a form of proxy that has been signed by the intermediary and which is restricted to the number of Common Shares owned by you as the beneficial shareholder but that is otherwise not completed. This form of proxy does not need to be signed by you. In this case, you can complete the form of proxy and vote by following the instructions provided by the intermediary.

        Mail – You may vote by completing, dating and signing the Voting Instruction Form and promptly returning it in the preaddressed envelope provided to you for receipt by no later than 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) on May 28, 2014 or on the third last business day prior to any postponed or adjourned meeting.

Telephone – You may vote by telephone from within the United States or Canada by calling the toll free number shown on the Voting Instruction Form no later than 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) on May 28, 2014, or on the third last business day prior to any postponed or adjourned meeting. Please refer to the 12 digit control number provided on the Voting Instruction Form.

3

Internet – If your intermediary is registered with Broadridge, whom we have retained to manage beneficial holder internet voting, you may vote over the internet by following the login and voting instructions on your Voting Instruction Form no later than 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) on May 28, 2014 or on the third last business day prior to any postponed or adjourned meeting. Please refer to the 12 digit control number provided on the Voting Instruction Form.

U.S. Householding

Some brokers, banks or other intermediaries may be participating in the practice of “householding” proxy circulars and annual reports. This means that only one copy of the Circular and the annual report may have been sent to multiple shareholders in the same household. Each shareholder will continue to receive a separate Voting Instruction Form. The Company will promptly deliver a separate copy of either document to you if you request one by writing or calling as follows: IMAX Corporation, 110 East 59th Street, Suite 2100, New York, New York, U.S.A. 10022, Attention: Investor Relations at 212-821-0100. If you want to receive separate copies of the Circular and the annual report in the future, or if you are receiving multiple copies and would like to receive only one copy for your household, you should contact your intermediary.

If you are a U.S. beneficial holder with an intermediary, you must instruct your U.S. intermediary how to vote your Common Shares. If you do not provide voting instructions, your Common Shares will not be voted on any proposal on which the U.S. intermediary does not have discretionary authority to vote. This is called a “broker non-vote”. In these cases, the broker can register your Common Shares as being present at the Special Meeting for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum but will not be able to vote on those matters for which specific authorization is required.

If you do NOT mark on the proxy how you intend to vote on a particular matter, your broker is entitled to vote your Common Shares as he or she sees fit with respect to “routine” matters such as the ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company’s auditors. However, your proxyholder does not have discretionary authority to vote on the election of the nominees named in this Circular as directors, on the confirmation of amendments to By-Law No. 1, or with respect to other matters which may properly be brought before the Special Meeting, if your proxy does not specify how you intend to vote on any particular matter. Accordingly, if you are a U.S. beneficial holder it is particularly important that you instruct your U.S. intermediary how you wish to vote your Common Shares.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND AUDITORS’ REPORT

The Board of Directors will submit to the shareholders at the Special Meeting the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 and the auditors’ report thereon. A copy of these financial statements and the auditors’ report is included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, which is being mailed to the Company’s shareholders together with this Circular.

MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED AT THE 2014 ANNUAL AND SPECIAL MEETING

Board of Directors’ Recommendations for your Vote

The following is a summary of matters to be considered at the Special Meeting together with the Board of Directors’ unanimous recommendations for your votes.

Item No.	Board Recommendation
1. Election of the Ten Nominees as Directors	FOR
2. Appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company’s Independent Auditors	FOR
3. Confirmation of Amendments to By-Law No. 1	FOR

Item No. 1—ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Company’s articles provide that the Board of Directors may be comprised of a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 15 directors, with the actual number determined from time to time by resolution of the Board of Directors. Currently, the Board of Directors has fixed the number of directors at ten.

The Board of Directors is currently composed of Neil S. Braun, Eric A. Demirian, Richard L. Gelfond, Garth M. Girvan, David W. Leebron, Michael MacMillan, Michael Lynne, I. Martin Pompadur, Marc A. Utay, and Bradley J. Wechsler. The term of each director will expire at the Special Meeting.

In any election or appointment of a director to fill a vacancy created by any director ceasing to hold office, the election or appointment shall be for the unexpired term of the director who has ceased to hold office.

Majority Voting Policy

The Company is a Canadian corporation. Under securities and corporate laws in Canada, voting for directors by shareholders of a public corporation is based on “plurality voting”, allowing for the election of directors on an individual basis or by slate. Shareholders of the Company elect directors individually using plurality voting. Plurality voting allows a shareholder to vote “for” a director nominee or “withhold” his or her vote. To be elected, a majority of the votes cast must be in favor of the election of each nominee. “Withheld” votes are not counted as votes cast. The Company has not adopted a majority voting policy for director elections at uncontested meetings. The Board of Directors believes that a majority voting policy is unsuitable for the Company given its structure, size and needs and could put the Company at risk of losing directors with particular experience or expertise. It is important that the members of the Board of Directors have complementary skills so that the Board of Directors as a whole functions well. It is also important to avoid the risk of votes being withheld by shareholders for political or other reasons not related to the discharge of duties by the individual directors. For these reasons, the Company believes that “plurality voting” promotes a process pursuant to which independent Board members perform a serious analysis of the needs of the Company and the best candidates to act as directors.

Nominees for Election

Shareholders who wish to have the Board of Directors consider the nomination of any person for director at the 2015 annual meeting of shareholders should communicate with the Company’s Corporate Secretary at the Company’s corporate office, see description in “Nomination Process” on page 40.

At the Special Meeting, shareholders will be asked to approve the election of directors by ordinary resolution, which requires that a majority of the votes cast at the Special Meeting be in favor of the resolution. In the absence of any instruction on the accompanying Form of Proxy, it is the intention of the persons named by management in the Form of Proxy to vote the Common Shares represented by the proxy in favor of the resolution. Voting “WITHHOLD” is the equivalent to voting “ABSTAIN”. If any of the nominees is for any reason unable to serve as a director, proxies in favor of management will be voted for another nominee in their discretion unless the shareholder has specified in the Form of Proxy that such shareholder’s Common Shares are to be withheld from voting on the election of directors.

6

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the election of each of these nominees as directors.

The nominees for election as directors have indicated to the Company that they will serve if elected. Each director elected will hold office until the earlier of the close of the 2015 annual meeting of shareholders, until his successor is elected or appointed; or until the date of his resignation or termination.

The following table lists certain information concerning the persons to be nominated for election to the Board of Directors of the Company.

At the Special Meeting, the Company’s shareholders will be asked to confirm these amendments.

Purpose of the Advance Notice Provisions

        The purpose of the Advance Notice Provisions is to provide a fair and transparent procedure for nominating directors. The Advance Notice Provisions ensure that the Company and its shareholders will receive adequate prior notice of director nominations, as well as sufficient information regarding all of the nominees, by requiring shareholders to submit a notice of director nominations within a prescribed period of time in advance of a shareholder meeting at which directors are to be elected. This will provide the Board of Directors with the ability to evaluate the proposed nominees’ qualifications and suitability as directors, and respond as appropriate in the best interests of the Company. This will serve to facilitate an orderly and efficient meeting process.

Among other things, the Advance Notice Provisions set a deadline by which such shareholders must notify the Company in writing of an intention to nominate directors prior to any meeting of shareholders at which directors are to be elected, and sets forth the information that shareholders must include in the notice for it to be valid.

11

Effect of the Advance Notice Provisions

Subject to the Canada Business Corporations Act (“CBCA”), the Advance Notice Provisions provide that only persons who are nominated in accordance with the following procedures shall be eligible for election as directors of the Company.

Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors may be made with respect to any annual meeting of shareholders or at any special meeting of shareholders if one of the purposes for which the special meeting was called was the election of directors:

1. by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, including pursuant to a notice of meeting;

2. by or at the direction or request of one or more shareholders pursuant to a proposal made in accordance with the provisions of the CBCA, or a requisition of the shareholders made in accordance with the provisions of the CBCA; or

3. by any person (a “Nominating Shareholder”):

a. who, at the close of business on the date of the giving of the notice provided for below and on the record date for notice of such meeting, is entered in the securities register as a holder of one or more shares carrying the right to vote at such meeting or who beneficially owns Common Shares that are entitled to be voted at such meeting; and

b. who complies with the notice procedures set forth below.

Timely Notice

In addition to any other applicable requirements, for a nomination to be made by a Nominating Shareholder, the Nominating Shareholder must have given timely notice thereof in proper written form to IMAX Corporation, 2525 Speakman Drive, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, L5K 1B1, Attention: Corporate Secretary.

To be timely, a Nominating Shareholder’s notice to the Secretary of the Company must be made:

1. in the case of an annual meeting of shareholders, not less than 30 nor more than 65 days prior to the date of the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that in the event that the annual meeting of shareholders is to be held on a date that is less than 50 days after the date (the “Notice Date”) on which the first public announcement of the date of the annual meeting was made, notice by the Nominating Shareholder may be made not later than the close of business on the tenth (10^th) day following the Notice Date; and

2. in the case of a special meeting (which is not also an annual meeting) of shareholders called for the purpose of electing directors (whether or not called for other purposes), not later than the close of business on the fifteenth (15^th) day following the day on which the first public announcement of the date of the special meeting of shareholders was made.

In no event shall any adjournment or postponement of a meeting of shareholders or the announcement thereof commence a new time period for the giving of a Nominating Shareholder’s notice as described above.

Nominee Information

To be in proper written form, a Nominating Shareholder’s notice to the Secretary of the Company must set forth the name, age, business address, residential address and principal employment of the proposed nominee, and the security holdings of the Company which are controlled or which are owned beneficially or of record by the person. In addition, the notice by the Nominating Shareholder must also disclose any other information relating to the proposed nominee as well as any proxy, contract, arrangement, understanding or relationship pursuant to which such Nominating Shareholder has a right to vote any shares of the Company, any other information relating to such Nominating Shareholder that would be required to be reported on an early warning report filed with the Ontario Securities Commission (the “OSC”) or on a Schedule 13D filed with the SEC, or made in a dissident’s proxy circular in connection with solicitations of proxies for election of directors pursuant to the CBCA and applicable securities laws.

        The Company may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as may reasonably be requested by the Company to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as an independent director of the Company or that could be material to a reasonable shareholder’s understanding of the independence, or lack thereof, of such proposed nominee. No person shall be eligible for election as a director of the Company unless nominated in accordance with the provisions of the Advance Notice Provisions; provided, however, that nothing in the Advance Notice Provisions shall be deemed to preclude discussion by a shareholder (as distinct from the nomination of directors) at a meeting of shareholders of any matter in respect of which it would have been entitled to submit a proposal pursuant to the provisions of the CBCA.

The chair of the meeting shall have the power and duty to determine whether a nomination was made in accordance with the procedures set forth in the foregoing provisions and, if any proposed nomination is not in compliance with such foregoing provisions, to declare that such defective nomination shall be disregarded.

The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, waive any requirement of the Advance Notice Provisions.

A complete copy of the proposed amendment to By-Law No. 1 incorporating the Advance Notice Provisions in the form adopted by the Board of Directors is attached as Appendix “A” to this Circular. A complete copy of the proposed amendments to By-Law No. 1, will be mailed, free of charge, to any holder of Common Shares upon written request to the Company at IMAX Corporation, 2525 Speakman Drive, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, L5K 1B1, Attention: Corporate Secretary.

12

The confirmation of the amendments to By-Law No. 1 by way of repeal and replacement require the approval of shareholders by ordinary resolution, which requires that a majority of the votes cast at the Special Meeting be in favor of the resolution. Voting “WITHHOLD” is the equivalent to voting “ABSTAIN”. In the absence of any instruction on the accompanying Form of Proxy, it is the intention of the persons named by management in the Form of Proxy to vote the Common Shares represented by the Form of Proxy in favor of the ordinary resolution.

The Board of Directors asks its shareholders to vote FOR the following resolution at the Special Meeting:

RESOLVED that the repeal and replacement of By-Law No. 1 of the Company with the amended By-Law No. 1 attached on Appendix “A” to the proxy circular of the Company dated April 22, 2014 is confirmed.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) requires the Company’s directors and executive officers and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”) to file reports of ownership on Form 3 and changes in ownership on Form 4 or Form 5 with the SEC. The Reporting Persons are also required by the Exchange Act to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, one report on Form 4 was not timely filed by I. Martin Pompadur relating to the acquisition of 4,756 Common Shares due to technical difficulties on the filing deadline date. Other than such report on Form 4, based solely upon a review of Forms 3, 4 and 5 (and amendments thereto) received from, or written representations by, the Reporting Persons, in respect of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, the Company believes that all other such reports were timely filed by the Reporting Persons.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Overview

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the material elements of the compensation program for the Company’s Named Executive Officers and the rationale for the program elements and decisions for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. For 2013, the Company’s Named Executive Officers were:

• Richard L. Gelfond, Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”);

• Joseph Sparacio, Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer;

• Greg Foster, Senior Executive Vice President, IMAX Corporation and Chief Executive Officer, IMAX Entertainment;

• Mark Welton, President, IMAX Theatres; and

• Larry O’Reilly, Executive Vice President, Sales, IMAX Corporation & President, World Wide Sales.

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

The following principles have guided the Company in developing its compensation programs and in determining total compensation levels for the Company’s Named Executive Officers:

• the Company must be prepared to compete with larger organizations with greater resources for executive talent, particularly in the competitive media and technology industries;

• the Company’s compensation practices should take into account the dynamic nature of the Company’s business, its rapid rate of growth, global nature and diverse lines of business; and

• the Company’s compensation programs should encourage the Company’s Named Executive Officers to increase long-term shareholder value in a manner that appropriately balances short-term growth objectives and does not create undue risk for the Company and its shareholders.

The Company’s compensation philosophy is to attract and retain key talent, to motivate performance and achievement, to promote a pay for performance culture and to reward superior performance. The objectives of the Company’s compensation program are to:

• provide competitive total compensation packages that include short-term cash and long-term equity-based incentive components that appropriately encourage and reward performance and retention and that create enduring long-term shareholder value;

• reward the Company’s Named Executive Officers for their relative individual contributions to the success of Company;

• link executive compensation to the Company’s long-term strategic objectives; and

• align Named Executive Officers’ interests with shareholders’ interests through an equity award framework that creates a sense of ownership and shared risk among executives.

Based on the foregoing philosophy and objectives, the Company has structured its overall executive compensation structure, which includes annual short-term cash and long-term equity cash compensation programs to motivate executives to achieve the business goals set by the Company and reward the executives for achieving such goals.

Summary of 2013 Performance and Results

The Company achieved a number of successes in 2013, with key highlights including the following:

• a record 277 new theater systems signings across 31 countries, which is nearly double the number of 2012 signings, resulting in a historic high of 407 theater systems in backlog at year end;

• 112 new theater installs in 23 countries, resulting in 17% growth of the IMAX commercial theater network over the previous year;

• the release of 29 Hollywood IMAX DMR^® titles and 9 local language films in 49 separate international markets, generating over $727M in global box office revenues and representing a 17% increase year-over-year;

• increased operational efficiency reflected in sales, general and administrative expenses growing only 3% in 2013, despite an increase in business activity;

• significant new business initiatives in the area of in-home entertainment, including a joint venture with TCL Multimedia Technology Holding Limited and an investment in PRIMA Cinema Inc., and

• progress penetrating under-saturated IMAX markets, including signing deals for 18 new theaters in Western Europe, 17 new theaters in Latin America and 1 new theater in India.

The Company believes that these achievements lay the groundwork for continued future success for the Company under the leadership of our Named Executive Officers.

In setting 2013 compensation, the Company took into account the increased size and global nature of the Company’s theater network and film slate, the Company’s continued expansion of its international operations, the increased level of business activity in 2013, progress in the development of new technology and products, and the pursuit of new business opportunities. Accordingly, the Company’s Named Executive Officers earned compensation for 2013 that was roughly equivalent to the target compensation opportunities established for each of them. This result is consistent with the intent and design of the Company’s variable pay programs, which link pay directly to Company performance.

Executive Compensation Process

Scope and Authority of the Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee is currently composed of Messrs. Pompadur (Chairman), Demirian and Utay, all of whom fulfill the independence requirements of Section 303A of the NYSE Listed Company Manual and Section 1.2 of Canadian National Instrument 58-101. These rules provide that an independent director be a person other than an officer or employee of the Company or any other individual having a material relationship that in the opinion of the Board of Directors would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of the director and sets forth specific categories of relationships that disqualify a director from being independent (any such director, an “Independent Director”).

The Compensation Committee operates under a written mandate, the Compensation Committee Charter, which was adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors. Pursuant to the Charter, the Compensation Committee’s responsibilities include (but are not limited to) the following:

• preparing and approving the compensation package of the CEO;

• reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of the CEO and evaluating the performance of the CEO against these goals and objectives;

• reviewing all new employment, consulting, retirement and severance arrangements for the CEO;

• reviewing and approving, on an annual basis, the components and the amount of compensation paid to executive officers;

• evaluating and making recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding the Company’s equity-based and incentive compensation plans, policies and programs; and

• reviewing this Compensation Disclosure and Analysis and recommending to the Board of Directors its inclusion in this Circular.

Role of the Compensation Committee in Determining CEO Compensation

The Compensation Committee prepares and approves the compensation package of the CEO, including rendering decisions with respect to base salary, performance-based incentive compensation and long-term equity incentive compensation. In evaluating the CEO, the Compensation Committee will consider:

• the CEO’s skill set, experience, historical performance and expected future contribution to the Company, and the impact on the Company if the CEO were to depart from employment with the Company;

• actual and relative performance and contribution;

• the level of total compensation for the Company’s other senior executives; and

• as described below, pay information from other companies and published surveys and other public compensation disclosures as a general market reference.

The Board of Directors has determined that to best align executive compensation with shareholders’ interests and the Company’s business strategy, the CEO should make recommendations to the Compensation Committee with respect to the equity and non-equity compensation of other Named Executive Officers given his familiarity with the Company’s day-to-day operations and his insight into executive performance and what rewards and incentives are effective. Accordingly, each year, the CEO reviews the performance of each member of the executive team, including the Named Executive Officers (other than himself), in consultation with other supervising executives, and reaches certain conclusions and recommendations based on these reviews, including with respect to base salary, performance-based incentive compensation and long-term equity incentive compensation. In evaluating a Named Executive Officer, the CEO will consider the following:

• an individual’s skill set, experience, historical performance and expected future contribution to the Company, and the impact on the Company if such individual would depart from employment with the Company;

• actual and relative performance and contribution;

• the level of total compensation for the Company’s other senior executives; and

• as described below, pay information from other companies and in some cases, published surveys and other public compensation disclosures as a general market reference.

The Compensation Committee then reviews and determines whether to approve the components and amount of compensation recommended by management and the compensation packages are implemented by the Company. In the event that the compensation package involves a decision to grant an equity award, any such award must be approved by the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee.

Role of Compensation Consultant

Under the Compensation Committee Charter, the Compensation Committee is empowered to retain compensation consultants to assist the Compensation Committee in evaluating executive officer compensation and awards to be granted pursuant to the Company’s long-term incentive plans. The Compensation Committee has the sole authority to retain and terminate compensation consultants and to review and approve such consultants’ fees and other retention terms. The Compensation Committee also has the authority to obtain advice and assistance from internal or external advisors as it deems appropriate to assist the Compensation Committee in fulfilling its responsibilities. The Compensation Committee has the authority to request that any officer or employee of the Company or the Company’s outside counsel attend a meeting of the Compensation Committee or to meet with any members of, or consultants to, the Compensation Committee.

In connection with the renewal of Mr. Gelfond’s employment agreement, the Compensation Committee retained Mercer (US) Inc. (“Mercer”) in 2013 to provide independent advice with respect to pay levels and pay mix of executive compensation. In particular, Mercer provided: (i) benchmarking data in connection with setting the magnitude of Mr. Gelfond’s pay; and (ii) comparator data in connection with assessing pay mix for executives in comparable positions at companies included in the Comparator Group. In providing these services, Mercer reported directly to the Compensation Committee.

In addition to the services to the Compensation Committee noted above, Mercer provided services to the Company in 2013 including (i) actuarial services in connection with the Company’s defined benefit pension plan and the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “SERP”), (ii) guidance in developing the Company’s overall compensation strategy, the development and implementation of the IMAX Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) and (iii) external benchmarking of executive-level roles. Mercer was also retained by the Compensation Committee in 2013 to assess the competitiveness of current compensation to the Board of Directors.

In considering Mercer’s independence, the Compensation Committee reviewed numerous factors relating to Mercer and the individuals actually providing services to the Company and the Compensation Committee, including those required by the SEC and the NYSE. Based on a review of these factors, the Compensation Committee has determined that (i) Mercer is independent and (ii) Mercer’s engagement presents no conflicts of interest.

Use of Compensation Survey Data

        In making compensation decisions, the Compensation Committee may from time to time consider and compare the form and level of compensation disclosed by other companies of similar size, industry or other characteristics to get a general understanding of the compensation structures maintained by these companies. In addition, the Compensation Committee periodically compares elements of total compensation for the Named Executive Officers against survey data provided by outside compensation consultants, proxy data and industry-specific published survey sources, which include data from the comparator companies. However, given the Company’s diversified and highly unique businesses, the history of innovations behind its product offerings, and the global nature of its employee base and operations, the Compensation Committee believes it is difficult to make true peer comparisons to the Company. As a result, while the Compensation Committee believes that external survey data is a useful tool in assessing executive compensation, it must be evaluated in the context of sound business judgment based on specific knowledge of the Company and its executive leaders.

Comparator Group

During 2012, Mercer, together with input from the Company’s management and the Compensation Committee, worked to develop a comparator group of 12 public companies (the “Comparator Group”). There were no changes to the Comparator Group in 2013.

Data from the Comparator Group is used by the Company and the Compensation Committee to assess the magnitude of executives’ pay, the pay mix, as well as general pay practices. The Comparator Group is comprised of a mix of entertainment and technology companies. In

19

particular, companies that exhibit one or more of the following characteristics were selected: (i) motion picture studio relationships; (ii) international revenue of at least 20%; (iii) average annual revenue growth of at least 10% over the last three years; and (iv) brand recognition among consumers. In addition, to ensure a comparison against organizations of a similar size, these groups include companies with revenues and/or market capitalization of one-third to three times the Company’s revenue and/or market capitalization. The Comparator Group identified by Mercer and the Company in 2012 is as follows:

DTS, Inc.	Corus Entertainment Inc.
TIVO Inc.	Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc.
RealD Inc.	Dolby Laboratories, Inc.
World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc.	Six Flags Entertainment Corporation
Rovi Corporation	Lions Gate Entertainment Corp.
DreamWorks Animation SKG, Inc.	Cinemark Holdings, Inc.

While the Compensation Committee reviews data regarding similarly situated executives in the Comparator Group when targeting total direct compensation for the Named Executive Officers, actual total direct compensation will depend on a variety of factors including individual and Company performance, experience, tenure in position and critical skills.

In connection with the renewal Mr. Gelfond’s employment agreement in late 2013, the Company and the Compensation Committee used benchmark data from the Comparator Group to assess the magnitude of his pay, as well as additional data from the Comparator Group to assess pay mix and general pay practices with respect to Mr. Gelfond. In setting total direct compensation for Mr. Gelfond under his new employment agreement, the Compensation Committee targeted between the 50^th and 75^th percentile of similarly situated executives within the Comparator Group.

Employment and Change-in-Control Agreements

Currently, the Company has written employment agreements or written offer letters with all of its Named Executive Officers, which are described in detail below in “Employment Agreements and Potential Payments upon Termination or Change-in-Control” on page 31. The Company believes that these agreements are critical to enable it to attract, retain talent, and motivate our Named Executive Officers, while still allowing the Compensation Committee and the CEO sufficient discretion to determine overall compensation in a given year. These employment arrangements specify details of the approach to salary, bonus, equity awards, and restrictive covenants surrounding executive officer employment, including non-competition and non-solicitation provisions. Generally, the arrangements are established at the time of hire and are amended from time to time to extend or modify the terms of employment, including to reflect compensation decisions resulting from a promotion or other change in job responsibility or to provide for additional equity awards and other items.

Certain of the employment arrangements require that the Company make certain payments to the relevant Named Executive Officers in the event of a termination of employment for various reasons, including upon a change-in-control. The provisions setting forth certain payments upon a change-in-control are designed to promote stability and continuity of senior management in the event of a transaction involving a change-in-control of the Company. The Company’s severance and change-in-control benefits were determined on the basis of market practices in order to both provide this stability, as well as to provide competitive overall compensation packages to the Named Executive Officers.

During 2013, the Company amended the employment agreement with Mr. Foster and came to agreement with respect to the new terms of Mr. Gelfond’s continued employment. For a description of the material terms of Mr. Gelfond’s continued employment with the Company, as well as the amendments to Mr. Foster’s employment agreement, please see “Employment Agreements and Potential Payments upon Termination or Change-in-Control” on page 31. There were no other new employment arrangements, amendments or renewals for the Named Executive Officers during 2013.

Executive Compensation Components

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, the principal components of compensation for Named Executive Officers were:

• base salary;

• annual cash bonus awards;

• long-term incentive compensation in the form of stock options and restricted share units (“RSUs”);

• contributions to retirement and pension plans; and

• other personal benefits and perquisites.

In establishing each component of a Named Executive Officer’s compensation, the Compensation Committee (or the full Board of Directors, as applicable) is guided by the following principles:

• as executives move to higher levels of responsibility with more direct influence over the Company’s performance, a higher percentage of their pay should be at risk and tied to increasing shareholder value. Accordingly, as executives become more senior, the percentage of their total direct compensation derived from base salary decreases;

• as executives become more senior, a greater proportion of their overall compensation is derived from long-term incentive compensation rather than short-term compensation. The Company believes that this motivates executives to take actions that

20

are most conducive to the Company’s long-term growth and viability and helps ensure focus on the Company’s long-term success; and

• equity compensation should increase as salary grade levels increase. Since the Company’s most senior executive officers are in positions that most directly impact the Company’s performance, their focus should be to achieve sustainable growth and long-term profit for the Company. By awarding compensation in the form of equity, the Company believes that its compensation encourages executives to behave like owners and aligns executives’ and shareholders’ interests.

Annual Base Salary

The Company provides each of the Named Executive Officers, with a competitive fixed annual base salary to compensate them for services rendered during the fiscal year and to provide a base level of income and cash flow that is not subject to performance-related risk or discretion. The base salary for each Named Executive Officer is specified in his employment arrangement, other than with respect to Messrs. Welton and O’Reilly whose salary is subject to annual review. In reviewing base salaries for the Named Executive Officers, the Company primarily considers: (i) the executive’s position and responsibilities; (ii) the executive’s capability, knowledge, skills and experience relative to the job requirements; (iii) market data for executives with similar responsibilities; (iv) the executive’s actual and relative performance and contribution; and (v) other cash and non-cash components of the executive’s total compensation. Base salary levels for Named Executive Officers are typically considered upon renewal of the Named Executive Officer’s employment agreement or upon an amendment to the Named Executive Officer’s employment agreement in connection with a promotion or other change in job responsibility. Base salary levels may be changed during the course of the year as the result of a promotion or other change in position or responsibility. In connection with the extension of his employment, Mr. Gelfond’s base salary was increased to $1,100,000 effective January 1, 2014. In connection with the extension of his employment, Mr. Foster’s base salary was increased to $900,000 effective July 1, 2013. Mr. Sparacio’s base salary increased to $450,000 effective May 14, 2013 in accordance with the terms of his employment agreement, effective January 1, 2013. Messrs. Welton and O’Reilly’s base salaries increased to Cdn $450,000 and Cdn $310,000, respectively, as part of their annual salary review.

Performance-Based Incentive Compensation

The Company has no pre-established policy or target, other than the general parameters described above, for the allocation between either cash and non-cash or short-term and long-term incentive compensation. The Company annually determines the appropriate level and mix of incentive compensation based on the Named Executive Officers’ prior year performance and the Company’s performance. Income from such incentive compensation is realized as a result of Company or individual performance against pre-established goals, depending on the type of award. Factors the Company considers in determining the appropriate mix of incentive compensation for the Company’s employees, including the Named Executive Officers, include the ability to further corporate business objectives, particularly key strategic and operational initiatives, management and budgetary responsibility and level of seniority.

Annual Cash Bonus Awards

The Company provides its Named Executive Officers, other than Mr. O’Reilly, with competitive annual performance bonus opportunities as a percent of their salary through its management bonus plan (the “Management Bonus Plan”). As a sales executive, Mr. O’Reilly receives commissions as his short-term incentive compensation and is therefore not eligible for an annual cash bonus.

The purpose of the Management Bonus Plan is to:

• link payment of annual incentive cash compensation to the achievement of annual priorities and key objectives of the business, including overall Company performance; and

• reward individual performance and contribution.

A key aspect of the Company’s compensation philosophy is that as executives move to greater levels of responsibility, an increasing percentage of their compensation should be at risk and based on individual and Company performance. Therefore, as executives become more senior, the bonus opportunity comprises a larger portion of their total compensation.

In 2013, each of the Named Executive Officers, other than Mr. Gelfond and Mr. O’Reilly, received cash bonuses under the Company’s Management Bonus Plan. Mr. Gelfond received his annual cash bonus award pursuant to his employment agreement. Awards under the Management Bonus Plan are determined based on achievement of corporate objectives and a qualitative evaluation of individual performance, and are discretionary. In 2013, the Company eliminated a minimum bonus guarantee that had been applicable to Mr. Foster.

Bonuses are awarded based on the performance of the Company and the actual performance and relative contribution of the participating employee. Bonuses are determined following the review of both the financial performance of the Company for the applicable fiscal year and the executive’s individual performance during the year. Generally, one half of a participating Named Executive Officer’s bonus will be based upon the Company’s performance, and the other half is based upon the personal performance of the Named Executive Officer. The Company’s assessment of its overall performance at year end considers the achievement of corporate financial, strategic and operational objectives including, but not limited to, income and revenue earned by the Company, theater signings and installations particularly under joint revenue sharing arrangements and in international markets, film performance, new business initiatives, reductions in selling, general and administrative expenses and technology development. The assessment of a Named Executive Officer’s personal performance takes into account the level of achievement of certain individual goals and objectives which are determined on an annual basis by such Named Executive Officer in consultation with the CEO. Examples of individual goals and objectives include business targets, operating, strategic, budgetary and/or managerial goals.

21

The Company employs broad parameters rather than fixed formulas to assess both Company and individual performances and to make recommendations to the Compensation Committee for bonus amounts for the Named Executive Officers. While the Company does set specific corporate and personal objectives at the beginning of a given year, these objectives are not fixed quantitative targets but rather guidelines to be used in determining bonuses at year-end. Neither the Company nor the Compensation Committee is limited to considering these pre-determined objectives in assessing performance and neither is the failure nor success of any one individual objective dispositive with respect to the final assessment of either Company or personal performance. Also, while employment agreements and employment arrangements set forth target bonuses, these targets are discretionary guidelines. The Company retains the discretion (unless otherwise contractually obligated) to recommend to the Compensation Committee no bonus, to recommend bonuses below the target or to recommend bonuses that exceed the target, in each case, as circumstances warrant. Similarly, the Compensation Committee retains the discretion to determine the final bonus amount notwithstanding the applicable targets. The Company believes that, at this time, a flexible annual bonus process is more appropriate and yields better results than setting fixed quantitative targets in advance. This flexible process allows the Company and the Compensation Committee to consider: (i) goals set by the Board of Directors and communicated to senior management at any point during the year; (ii) the effects of unanticipated events and circumstances on the Company’s business or on a particular executive’s performance; and (iii) the performance and contribution of the executive relative to other executives.

In assessing Company performance for 2013, the Company took into account its record number of theater signings and theater systems in backlog as of year-end, the increased size and global nature of the Company’s theater network and film slate, the Company’s continued expansion of its international operations, the increased level of business activity in 2013, progress in the development of new technology and products, and the pursuit of new business opportunities. For 2013, the Named Executive Officers received bonuses that represented the following percentages of their target bonus opportunities:

Named Executive Officer	2013 Target Bonus Opportunity	2013 Bonus Earned as a Percentage of Base Salary
Richard Gelfond	0-200%	110%
Joseph Sparacio	35%	31.5%
Greg Foster	70%	68.75%
Mark Welton	37.5%	33.3%
Larry O’Reilly	n/a	n/a

In assessing individual performance for 2013, the Company recognized:

• Mr. Sparacio’s efforts in connection with the streamlining of costs and strong controls over selling, general and administrative expenses and his efforts in promoting and maintaining stability of the Company’s financial controls;

• Mr. Foster’s role in helping the Company achieve strong box office results for 2013 and in continuing to strengthen the Company’s international film slate;

• Mr. Welton’s role in overseeing the expansion of the theater network, including the installation of 110 new IMAX theaters and progress on the Company’s technology initiatives, particularly pertaining to laser development; and

• Mr. O’Reilly’s role in the continued global expansion of the IMAX theater network, with a record year for signing and year-end backlog.

As a result of this assessment, each of Messrs. Sparacio, Foster and Welton received bonuses that were just below their target bonus opportunities. As a sales executive, Mr. O’Reilly receives commissions as his short-term incentive compensation and is therefore not eligible for an annual cash bonus.

The Compensation Committee is responsible for determining Mr. Gelfond’s annual bonus based on its qualitative assessment of Company performance and his personal contribution to the Company’s overall success. In awarding Mr. Gelfond’s 2013 bonus, the Compensation Committee recognized the Company’s record number of theater signings and backlog, the Company’s continued success securing a robust slate of high-profile Hollywood films for release to IMAX theaters, increased operational efficiencies, significant new business initiatives in the area of in-home entertainment and the hiring of a Chief Marketing Officer and the reorganization of the Company’s marketing department. Mr. Gelfond is eligible to receive a bonus of up to two times his base salary. As result of this assessment, Mr. Gelfond received a bonus of 1.1 times his base salary.

Sales Commission Plans

Where an employee’s position primarily involves responsibility for the Company’s theater sales, lease and joint revenue sharing arrangement activities, the Company believes that it is appropriate to tie a portion of his or her annual cash compensation to such revenue-generating efforts.

The Company maintains various sales commission plans (the “Commission Plans”) in which its employees involved in theater sales activities participate. These plans are designed to reward employees where, through their efforts, the Company secures obligations under contracts with third parties to build or retrofit, open and operate IMAX theaters. Typically, commissions payable under the Commission Plans are based either on a percentage of the contract value or on a fixed amount for each theater opened. The commission is calculated based on several factors including the size and nature of the contractual relationship entered into by the Company with the third party. Each theater transaction is examined at the time a binding agreement is entered into to determine which of the specific Commission Plans

22

would apply. Subsequent to the signing of a binding agreement, the commissions payable under the completed transaction are calculated based on the applicable Commission Plans. The calculation is reviewed and approved by appropriate Company personnel.

Mr. O’Reilly, who leads the Company’s sales, theater marketing and development activities, is the only Named Executive Officer who participates in the Commission Plans. In 2013, Mr. O’Reilly received commission payments of $613,605.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation

The Company believes that long-term incentive awards are important in recognizing the scope of responsibilities, rewarding demonstrated performance, creating alignment between senior management and shareholders and in preserving the continuity of executive leadership through retention. The level of benefit received by the Company’s executive officers is dependent, to a large degree, on the Company’s execution of its strategy and on delivering significant and sustained growth.

The Company’s long-term incentive compensation for certain employees, including each of the Named Executive Officers, has generally been provided through the grant of stock options with service-based vesting conditions. The Compensation Committee continues to believe that grants of equity awards with service-based vesting conditions remain appropriate vehicles for providing forward-looking incentives and promoting the retention of the continuing members of management in certain circumstances. Stock options also align the executives’ interests with those of the Company’s shareholders over the long term.

As part of its review of the Company’s compensation practices in 2012 and 2013, Mercer assessed the Company’s long-term incentive compensation practices by analyzing the long-term incentive vehicles used by companies in the Comparator Group and assessing the Company’s current long-term compensation program relative to practices of the companies in the Comparator Group, general market practice and the Company’s business and human capital objectives. As a result of Mercer’s assessment, beginning in 2013, the Company shifted from its practice of granting only stock options to a policy of granting a mix of time-based RSUs and stock options, while keeping the overall value of each grant consistent with a historic practice.

As with stock options, RSUs provide for forward-looking incentives, promote retention and align the executive’s interest with those of the Company’s shareholders. In addition, RSUs help address a disconnect the Company has recently experienced between the cost incurred by the Company from the issuance of stock options and the value perceived by executives. Moreover, because RSUs (unlike stock options) retain value even if the Company’s stock price has decreased from the date of grant, RSUs will help the Company retain and engage top talent by mitigating the de-motivating impact of underwater stock options. Finally, since RSUs retain value even while underwater, and are therefore expected to have a lower level of forfeiture, fewer RSUs are granted relative to the number of stock options that may be granted. As a result, RSU grants may be less dilutive than stock option grants. The Compensation Committee will continue to evaluate the appropriateness of a performance-based long-term incentive plan for Named Executive Officers.

Either the Compensation Committee or the full Board of Directors approves all stock option and RSU grants to Named Executive Officers. In determining the number of stock options or RSUs to grant to the Named Executive Officers, the Compensation Committee or the Board of Directors, as applicable, considers each Named Executive Officer’s actual performance and relative contribution, salary range, responsibility and the number of stock options granted to the Company’s other executive officers, either for the purpose of determining annual equity awards to Named Executive Officers or equity awards granted pursuant to employment agreements as applicable. In addition, the Compensation Committee or the Board considers and compares compensation disclosed by the Comparator Group to obtain a general understanding of the compensation structures maintained by similarly situated companies. Moreover, the Company periodically compares various elements of stock-based compensation against general survey data provided by Mercer or other outside consultants. Equity awards are generally granted to executive officers as part of an annual grant to employees, in connection with an executive’s employment agreement renewal or upon an executive’s hire or promotion, however, the Company reserves the right to make grants at other times as determined by the Compensation Committee or the Board of Directors. The Company accounts for stock-based payments to officers, employees and eligible directors in accordance with the requirements of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 “Compensation-Stock Compensation”.

Pursuant to the LTIP, the maximum number of Common Shares that may be subject to options and stock appreciation rights granted to any eligible participant in any calendar year shall equal one million (1,000,000) Common Shares; and the maximum value of awards that may be awarded to any eligible participant in any calendar year is five million dollars ($5,000,000) measured as of the date of grant (with respect to equity awards denominated in cash) or one million (1,000,000) Common Shares measured as of the date of grant (with respect to equity awards denominated in Common Shares).

        No LTIP equity award shall be transferable other than pursuant to a beneficiary designation approved by the Company, by last will and testament or by the laws of descent and distribution, provided, however, that the Compensation Committee may, subject to applicable laws, rules and regulations and such terms and conditions as it shall specify, permit the transfer of an equity award, for no consideration to a permitted transferee. Any equity award transferred to a permitted transferee shall be further transferable only by last will and testament or the laws of descent and distribution or, for no consideration, to another permitted transferee of the participant. Stock option awards pursuant to the Stock Option Plan (the “SOP”) are not transferable.

Subject to applicable laws, rules and regulations, the Board of Directors may at any time terminate or, from time to time, amend, modify or suspend the LTIP, provided, however, that no termination, amendment, modification or suspension (i) will be effective without the approval of the shareholders of the Company if such approval is required under applicable laws, rules and regulations, including the rules of the NYSE, the TSX and such other securities exchanges, if any, as may be designated by the Board from time to time, and (ii) shall materially and adversely alter or impair the rights of a participant in any equity award previously made under the LTIP without the consent

23

of the holder thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of Directors shall have broad authority to amend the LTIP or any award under the LTIP without the consent of a participant to the extent it deems necessary or desirable (a) to comply with, or take into account changes in, or interpretations of, applicable tax laws, securities laws, employment laws, accounting rules and other applicable laws, rules and regulations, (b) to take into account unusual or nonrecurring events or market conditions (including, without limitation, the events described in Section 13(b)), or (c) to take into account significant acquisitions or dispositions of assets or other property by the Company.

Following the approval of the IMAX Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP”) in June 2013, no additional equity awards were granted under the SOP.

Stock Options

In 2013, the Company granted stock options to purchase Common Shares to officers, employees, consultants and eligible directors. The Company granted stock options to align executives’ interests with those of the Company’s shareholders over the long term.

In determining the number of stock options to grant to the Named Executive Officers, the Company, the Compensation Committee or the Board of Directors, as applicable, from time to time will consider and compare compensation disclosed by the Comparator Group to get a general understanding of the compensation structures maintained by similarly situated companies. Moreover, the Company periodically compares various elements of stock-based compensation against general survey data provided by outside consultants. In addition, consideration is given to each Named Executive Officer’s actual performance and relative contribution, salary range, responsibility and the number of stock options granted to the Company’s other executive officers. Either the Compensation Committee or the full Board of Directors approves all stock option grants to Named Executive Officers.

All awards of stock options are made with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company’s Common Shares on the date of grant. The fair market value of a Common Share on a given date means the higher of the closing price of a Common Share on the grant date (or the most recent trading date if the grant date is not a trading date) on the NYSE, the TSX or such other national exchange, as may be designated by the Company’s Board of Directors. Stock options are exercisable for a maximum period of 10 years from the date of grant, subject to earlier termination if the participant’s employment, consulting arrangement or term of office with the Company terminates. The Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee determines vesting requirements applicable to each grant of stock options.

Messrs. Gelfond and Foster are eligible to receive periodic stock option grants on terms set forth in their respective employment agreements as described below. Mr. Gelfond did not receive any stock option grants in 2013. In July 2013, in connection with the renewal of his employment agreement, Mr. Foster received a grant of 161,538 stock options, which vests in three equal annual installments commencing on the first anniversary of the date of grant. In March 2013, Messrs. Sparacio, Welton and O’Reilly received stock option grants of 20,834, 20,834 and 10,000, respectively, in connection with the annual stock option grants to employees. These options vest in four annual installments (20%, 25%, 25% and 30%) commencing on the first anniversary of the date of grant.

For a description of the vesting and exercisability terms of stock options granted to the Named Executive Officers following a termination or change in control, please see “Employment Agreements and Potential Payments upon Termination or Change-in-Control” on page 31.

Restricted Share Units

In 2013, the Company granted RSUs to officers, employees, consultants and eligible directors on the terms and conditions set forth in the LTIP and in individual award agreements. Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one Common Share. Either the Compensation Committee or the full Board of Directors determines vesting requirements applicable to each grant of RSUs and approves all RSU grants to Named Executive Officers. If a Named Executive Officer’s employment or term of office with the Company terminates for any reason, RSUs which have not vested are generally cancelled on the termination date, subject to certain exceptions as further described in “Employment Agreements and Potential Payments upon Termination or Change-in-Control” on page 31.

All awards of RSUs are made with a fair value equal to the fair market value of the Company’s Common Shares on the date of grant. The fair market value of a Common Share on a given date means the higher of the closing price of a Common Share on the grant date (or the most recent trading date if the grant date is not a trading date) on the NYSE, the TSX or such other national exchange, as may be designated by the Company’s Board of Directors.

        Messrs. Gelfond and Foster are eligible to receive periodic RSU grants in accordance with the terms of their respective employment agreements as described below. Mr. Gelfond did not receive any RSU grants in 2013. Mr. Foster received 21,574 RSUs in July 2013 in connection with his employment agreement renewal. In June 2013, Mr. Sparacio, Mr. Welton and Mr. O’Reilly received RSU grants of 18,750, 18,750 and 9,500, respectively, in connection with the Company’s annual RSU grants to employees. Messrs. Sparacio and Welton’s RSUs vest and will be converted to Common Shares in four installments: 3,750 on March 7, 2014; 4,687 on each of March 7, 2015 and March 7, 2016 and 5,626 on December 1, 2016. Mr. O’Reilly’s RSUs vest and will be converted to Common Shares in four installments: 1,900 on March 7, 2014; 2,375 on each of March 7, 2015 and March 7, 2016; and 2,850 on December 1, 2016.

Retirement and Pension Plans

The Company maintains an unfunded defined benefit pension plan, the SERP, covering Mr. Gelfond and the Company’s former Co-CEO and current Chairman of the Board of Directors, Mr. Wechsler. The SERP provides for a lifetime retirement benefit from age 55 equal to 75% of the member’s best average 60 consecutive months of earnings (base salary and cash bonus) over his employment history. The SERP was implemented by the Company in July 2000 pursuant to the employment agreements of Messrs. Gelfond and Wechsler. The benefits under the SERP for Mr. Gelfond are 100% vested.

Under the terms of the SERP, if Mr. Gelfond’s employment is terminated other than for cause, he is entitled to receive SERP benefits in the form of a lump sum payment. SERP benefit payments to Mr. Gelfond are subject to a deferral for six months after the termination of his employment, at which time Mr. Gelfond will be entitled to receive interest on the deferred amount credited at the applicable federal rate for short-term obligations. The term of Mr. Gelfond’s current employment agreement has been extended through December 31, 2016. In accordance with the terms of his employment agreement, any compensation earned by Mr. Gelfond during the term of his current agreement would not be included in calculating his benefit payments under the SERP. In 2006, in order to reduce ongoing pension costs to the Company, Mr. Gelfond agreed to a reduction in the cost of living adjustment and surviving spouse benefits previously owed to him under the SERP, subject to the recoupment of a percentage of such benefits upon a change-in-control of the Company.

The 2013 Summary Compensation Table on page 27 presents, consistent with SEC rules, the 2013 change in pension value for Mr. Gelfond. This amount represents the change in the actuarial present value of his accumulated benefits under the SERP. The change in value presented in the 2013 Summary Compensation Table reflects a year-over-year update to applicable calculation assumptions from December 31, 2012 to December 31, 2013, including an increase in the relevant discount rate and applicable PBGC lump sum rate assumptions resulting from an increase in market interest rates. The change in pension value presented in the 2013 Summary Compensation Table represents actuarial calculations based upon an assumption of retirement as of December 31, 2013 versus December 31, 2012 and does not reflect actual assumptions used given Mr. Gelfond’s continued and expected employment beyond 2013. Mr. Gelfond’s accumulated benefit under the SERP becomes payable only upon Mr. Gelfond’s death, retirement or resignation, the termination of Mr. Gelfond’s employment without cause or a change-in-control of the Company. The accumulated benefit under the SERP will ultimately be recalculated as of the date of the relevant termination event at which point assumptions such as the lump sum discount rates will be known and fixed under the SERP and the SERP benefit will become payable six months thereafter. Mr. Gelfond has informed the Company that he does not currently intend to retire prior to the expiration of his current employment agreement on December 31, 2016.

The Company also maintains an unfunded post-retirement benefit plan covering Mr. Gelfond. The plan provides that the Company will maintain retiree health benefits for Mr. Gelfond, until he becomes eligible for Medicare or a lump sum payment in lieu thereof, and thereafter, the Company will provide Medicare supplemental coverage as selected by Mr. Gelfond, or if such coverage is not permitted, an annual cash payment equal to such coverage. Mr. Gelfond is fully vested in this plan.

The Company maintains defined contribution pension plans for all of its employees. Each of the Named Executive Officers participates in one of these plans under the same terms as other employees. The Company makes contributions to these pension plans on behalf of employees in an amount up to 5% of their base salary, subject to certain prescribed maximums. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, the Company contributed an aggregate of $15,300 to the Company’s U.S. defined contribution employee pension plan under Section 401(k) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code on behalf of each of Messrs. Gelfond, Foster and Sparacio. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, the Company contributed $21,851.28 on behalf of Mr. Welton and $15,057.86 on behalf of Mr. O’Reilly to the Company’s Canadian defined contribution pension plan.

Other Personal Benefits and Perquisites

The Company provides all employees, including the Named Executive Officers, with personal benefits and modest perquisites that the Company believes are reasonable and consistent with its overall compensation program to better enable the Company to attract and retain superior talent for key positions. The Company periodically reviews the levels of personal benefits and perquisites provided to the Named Executive Officers to ensure competitiveness and value to the employees. The Company does not provide significant perquisites to its Named Executive Officers.

The Named Executive Officers are provided either with use of Company automobiles or with car allowances.

        Effective January 1, 2013, certain senior executives, including each of the Named Executive Officers other than Messrs. Welton and O’Reilly, participated in the Company’s executive supplemental health reimbursement plan. The plan, which covers certain of the Company’s senior executives located in the United States, provides expanded coverage and reimbursement of services not covered by the Company’s medical, dental and vision plans. Messrs. Welton and O’Reilly participated in the Company’s executive health care spending account (HCSA). The HCSA plan provides reimbursement of services and expenses not covered by the Company’s medical, dental and vision plans.

Each Named Executive Officer is also entitled to receive a cash payment upon such executive’s death through the Company’s life insurance policies. In the event of the executive’s death prior to actual retirement at age 65, the executive’s designated beneficiaries would be entitled to receive a lump sum payment amount equal to two times his base salary, subject to prescribed maximums. In addition to its broader policy covering all Named Executive Officers, the Company has agreed to reimburse Mr. Gelfond for the cost of premiums and taxes for a $15 million term life insurance policy that became effective in January 2010. In 2013, the Company reimbursed Mr. Gelfond for $70,308 for three quarters of the annual premium; $19,178 for the fourth quarter will be reimbursed in 2014. In addition, with respect to Mr. Foster, the Company pays the cost of premiums associated with a $3 million term life insurance policy for the duration of his

25

employment, which amounts to approximately $1,700 per year, as well as a fully-paid $3.5 million whole life insurance policy for Mr. Foster, which amounts to approximately $135,000 per year for a five year period that began in 2010.

In connection with the renewal of his employment agreement in 2013, the Company has agreed to reimburse Mr. Foster for reasonable expenses of up to $100,000 incurred in connection with his participation in an executive MBA program of Mr. Foster’s choice. No amounts in respect of such an MBA program were actually reimbursed during 2013.

Attributed costs to the Company of the personal benefits and perquisites described above for the Named Executive Officers for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, are reported below in the “All Other Compensation” column of the “2013 Summary Compensation Table”.

Consideration of Say-on-Pay

The Company’s most recent Say-on-Pay vote was held at the 2013 annual shareholders meeting, where over 99% of votes cast were in support of the Company’s compensation program as described in the 2013 proxy statement.

The Board of Directors, including members of the Compensation Committee, considered the results of the 2013 shareholder Say-on-Pay vote at the June 11, 2013 Board of Directors’ meeting. In light of the strong support of the Company’s compensation program at the 2013 annual meeting, the Compensation Committee continued to apply the same principles in determining the amounts and types of executive compensation for 2013. The Company continues to evaluate the form and amount of all elements of executive compensation.

Tax and Accounting Considerations

To the extent that any compensation paid to the Named Executive Officers constitutes a deferral of compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, the Company intends to cause the compensation to comply with the requirements of Section 409A and to avoid the imposition of penalty taxes and interest upon the participant receiving the award.

The Company also takes accounting considerations, including the impact of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 “Compensation-Stock Compensation” into account in structuring compensation programs and determining the form and amount of compensation awarded.

Share Ownership Guidelines

The Company adopted share ownership guidelines in 2013 to encourage the Named Executive Officers and other executives to accumulate a significant ownership stake so that they are incentivized to maximize long-term shareholder returns. Under the guidelines, the CEO must achieve and maintain share ownership of three (3) times his annual base salary. In addition, members of the Company’s senior management, its executive officers and the vice president of Investor Relations must achieve and maintain share ownership of either one (1) or 0.33 times their annual base salaries, depending on the individual. All of the Named Executive Officers, other than Mr. Gelfond, are subject to share ownership requirements of one times their annual base salary. Executives subject to the policy will have to satisfy the guidelines within four years of becoming subject to the policy (or plan inception, if later). As of April 22, 2014, each of the Named Executive Officers had met the share ownership guidelines within the required time frame.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

Based on this review and discussion, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Circular.

(1) As required by SEC rules, the “Option Awards” and “Stock Awards” columns in this Summary Compensation Table reflect the aggregate grant date fair values of stock options and RSUs respectively, computed in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 (with no reductions for expected forfeitures).

2013 PENSION BENEFITS

The following table sets forth information relating to each defined benefit pension plan that provides for payments or other benefits at, following, or in connection with retirement, as of December 31, 2013.

Name and Principal Position of Named Executive Officer	Plan Name	Number of Years of Credited Service (#)		Present Value of Accumulated Benefits (1) ($)		Payments During Last Fiscal Year ($)

(1) See note 21(a) to the audited consolidated financial statements in Item 8 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 for certain assumptions used to calculate the present value of accumulated benefits.

The Company’s SERP is an unfunded defined benefit pension plan covering Mr. Gelfond, which was established in 2000. The SERP provides for a lifetime retirement benefit from age 55 equal to 75% of the member’s best average 60 consecutive months of earnings over the member’s employment history. Mr. Gelfond and the Company have agreed that any compensation earned during 2011, 2012 and 2013 would not be included in calculating his benefit payments under the SERP. In 2006, in order to reduce ongoing pension costs to the Company, Mr. Gelfond agreed to a reduction in the cost of living adjustment and surviving spouse benefits previously owed to him under the SERP, subject to the recoupment of a percentage of such benefits upon a change-in-control of the Company. The benefits were 50% vested as at July 2000, the SERP initiation date. The vesting percentage increased on a straight-line basis from inception until age 55. Mr. Gelfond’s SERP benefits became 100% vested on July 10, 2010.

The Company also maintains an unfunded retiree health benefit plan covering Mr. Gelfond. This plan provides that the Company will maintain retiree health benefits for Mr. Gelfond until he becomes eligible for Medicare and, thereafter, the Company will provide Medicare supplemental coverage as selected by Mr. Gelfond.

Further descriptions of the SERP, the retiree health benefit plan and the Company’s defined contribution plans are summarized above in “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Retirement and Pension Plans”.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS AND POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR CHANGE-IN-CONTROL

While the Company has no formal severance plans, the Company has entered into written employment agreements or written offer letters with certain of its executive officers, including each of the Named Executive Officers, which require the Company to make payments to the Named Executive Officers in the event of the termination of their employment in various circumstances, including in the event of an actual or potential change-in-control, as further described below. These employment agreement provisions are intended to attract, retain and motivate employees, provide stability and continuity among the Company’s senior executives, and ensure that the Company’s executive officers are able to devote their full time and attention to the Company’s operations in the event of an actual or potential change-in-control.

In addition to the contractual rights of certain of the Named Executive Officers, all of the Named Executive Officers hold equity awards granted under the LTIP and/or the SOP. The LTIP and the SOP describe the impact of certain separation events on equity awards granted under the LTIP and/or the SOP unless provisions in the individual Named Executive Officer’s employment arrangement override the terms of the relevant plan. The general provisions under the LTIP and the SOP are as follows:

• Termination without cause; voluntary resignation; death/disability: If the participant’s employment, consulting arrangement or term of office is terminated without cause or by reason of the participant’s voluntary resignation, death or permanent disability, (i) unvested equity awards will be cancelled, and (ii) the participant (or the participant’s estate) will be generally entitled to exercise any vested stock options for a period of thirty days, or such longer period as the Board of Directors or Compensation Committee determines, following the date of termination of employment.

• Termination with cause: If the participant’s employment, consulting arrangement or term of office is terminated for cause, the participant’s vested and unvested equity awards will be cancelled.

• Termination upon Change-in-control: All outstanding unvested equity awards will immediately vest and become fully exercisable in the event that, following the occurrence of a change-in-control and any of the following events occur within 24 months of such change-in-control: (i) the termination of the participant’s employment without cause, (ii) the diminution of the participant’s title and/or responsibilities, or (iii) the participant being asked to relocate more than twenty-five miles from his existing office.

If the participant is a party to an employment agreement with the Company or any of its subsidiaries and breaches any of the restrictive covenants in such agreement, the participant’s unexercised stock options or unvested RSUs will be cancelled. In certain cases, a Named Executive Officer’s equity awards are controlled by the terms of his employment agreement; in the event of a conflict between such employment agreement and the terms of the LTIP or SOP, the terms of the employment agreement will prevail. Any provision in an employment arrangement that departs from the terms of the LTIP or the SOP is noted below.

The analysis below sets forth the amount of compensation that would become payable to each of the Named Executive Officers under existing arrangements if the hypothetical termination of employment events described had occurred on December 31, 2013. The Company cautions that the actual amounts that would be paid upon a Named Executive Officer’s termination of employment can be determined only at the time of such individual’s separation from the Company.

Mr. Gelfond

Chief Executive Officer and Director

On December 20, 2013, the Company and Mr. Gelfond came to terms with respect to his continued employment with the Company (the “2014 Agreement”). Mr. Gelfond’s prior employment agreement was to terminate on December 31, 2013. Under the terms of the 2014 Agreement, Mr. Gelfond’s employment has been extended for three years through December 31, 2016. Pursuant to the 2014 Agreement, Mr. Gelfond’s annual salary was increased to $1.1 million and he will continue to be eligible to receive a cash bonus of up to two times his base salary, with a target bonus of one times salary. The bonus is granted at the discretion of the Board of Directors and is based upon the success of the Company in achieving certain goals and objectives. Mr. Gelfond’s agreement contains: (i) a customary non-competition provision; and (ii) a provision requiring Mr. Gelfond to provide the Company with consulting services following the expiration of his employment.

Pursuant to the terms of his prior agreement, Mr. Gelfond has received several stock option grants (the “Pre-2014 Options”). Mr. Gelfond’s equity awards outstanding as of December 31, 2013, and their respective exercise prices and expiration dates, are set forth above in “Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End”. In addition, under the terms of the 2014 Agreement, on February 21, 2014, Mr. Gelfond received 426,695 stock options (the “2014 Options”) and 134,948 RSUs (the “2014 RSUs”). The 2014 Options and 2014 RSUs will vest in nine equal installments on May 1, September 1 and December 31 of each of 2014, 2015 and 2016. In addition, the 2014 Agreement contemplates the grant of additional stock options to Mr. Gelfond on January 5, 2015 (the “2015 Options”) and January 5, 2016 (the “2016 Options”) with an aggregate grant date value for each grant equal to $3,900,000. The 2015 Options will vest in six equal installments on May 1, September 1 and December 31 of each of 2015 and 2016. The 2016 Options will vest in three equal installments on May 1, 2016, September 1, 2016 and December 31, 2016. Unless overridden by specific terms set forth in his employment agreement, Mr. Gelfond’s stock options and RSUs are governed by the terms of the LTIP or the SOP, as applicable, which are described above in “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Long-Term Incentive Compensation”.

31

As provided for in the agreement, the Company has created a defined benefit pension plan, the SERP, to provide benefits for Mr. Gelfond upon his retirement, resignation or termination other than for cause, see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Retirement and Pension Plans” on page 25 for a description of the SERP. Mr. Gelfond is fully vested in his benefits under the SERP. Mr. Gelfond is also entitled to retiree health benefits for himself and his eligible dependents until he becomes eligible for Medicare and, thereafter, Medicare supplemental coverage selected by Mr. Gelfond, or if such coverage is not permitted, an annual cash payment equal to such coverage.

The Company has agreed to reimburse Mr. Gelfond for the premiums related to a $15 million term life insurance policy that became effective in January 2010. In 2013, the Company reimbursed Mr. Gelfond for $89,486 in annual premiums and related taxes.

Voluntary retirement/resignation without good reason

If, prior to the expiration of his employment term, Mr. Gelfond were to resign other than for good reason, all unvested equity awards would be cancelled. All Pre-2014 Options would remain exercisable for the duration of their original term. All vested stock options granted pursuant to the 2014 Agreement would remain exercisable for the shorter of: (i) their original term; and (ii) two years. In the event of a resignation without good reason, Mr. Gelfond would have no further right to receive any compensation or benefits.

If Mr. Gelfond resigned without good reason as of December 31, 2013, he would have been entitled to an estimated lump sum payment of $19,378,602 reflecting the value of his vested SERP. He would also be entitled to ongoing retiree health benefits, the estimated value of which was $256,000 as of December 31, 2013.

Non-renewal of employment agreement

If Mr. Gelfond’s employment agreement had not been renewed as of December 31, 2013, he would have been entitled to an estimated lump sum payment of $19,378,602 reflecting the value of his vested SERP. He would also be entitled to ongoing retiree health benefits, the estimated value of which was $256,000 as of December 31, 2013.

If, following the expiration of the term of the 2014 Agreement, the Company does not offer Mr. Gelfond continued employment on terms substantially similar to his 2014 Agreement, all Pre-2014 Options would remain exercisable for the duration of their original term. In addition, (i) the 2014 Options would remain exercisable for the shorter of: their original term, and five years; (ii) the 2015 Options would remain exercisable for the shorter of: their original term, and four years; and (iii) the 2016 Options would remain exercisable for the shorter of: their original term, and three years.

Termination with cause

If Mr. Gelfond’s employment were terminated with cause, his outstanding unvested stock options and RSUs would be cancelled immediately. All vested stock options would remain exercisable for the shorter of: (i) their original term; and (ii) ninety (90) days. In such case, Mr. Gelfond would forfeit his benefits under the SERP, and he would not receive any further compensation under the 2014 Agreement. Mr. Gelfond, however, would be entitled to receive retiree health benefits. If Mr. Gelfond had been terminated with cause as of December 31, 2013, he would have been entitled to receive retiree health benefits. The estimated value of retiree health benefits, as of December 31, 2013, was $256,000.

Termination without cause/resignation for good reason

If Mr. Gelfond’s employment was terminated without cause or if he were to resign with good reason, all his unvested stock options and RSUs would immediately vest. All Pre-2014 Options would remain exercisable for the remainder of their initial term and (i) the 2014 Options would remain exercisable for the shorter of: their original term, and five years; (ii) the 2015 Options would remain exercisable for the shorter of: their original term, and four years; and (iii) the 2016 Options would remain exercisable for the shorter of: their original term, and three years.

Prior to the 2014 Agreement, if Mr. Gelfond’s employment were terminated without cause (other than upon a change-in-control), he would not have been entitled to receive any cash compensation other than payments owing under the SERP. Under the 2014 Agreement, effective January 1, 2014, if Mr. Gelfond were terminated without cause or he were to resign for good reason, he would be entitled to receive a pro-rated portion of his bonus.

If Mr. Gelfond’s employment were terminated without cause other than upon a change-in-control as of December 31, 2013, he would have been entitled to an estimated lump sum payment of $19,378,602 reflecting the value of his vested SERP. He would also be entitled to ongoing retiree health benefits, the estimated value of which was $256,000 as of December 31, 2013.

Payments upon a Change-in-Control

Upon a sale of the Company, Mr. Gelfond would be entitled to receive a cash bonus (the “Sale Bonus”) in an amount equal to the product of (a) 0.375% and (b) the amount by which the sale or liquidation transaction imputes an equity value in excess of Cdn$150,000,000 to the Common Shares originally issued by the Company (on a fully diluted basis but excluding the Common Shares issued upon the conversion of the Class B convertible preferred shares of the Company formerly outstanding which were converted into Common Shares on June 16, 1994 and the Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants previously owned by Messrs. Gelfond and Wechsler). If the sale of the Company would have occurred on December 31, 2013, the Company estimates that the Sale Bonus would have been between $2,611,581 and $6,943,471, depending upon the equity assumptions used in the relevant calculations.

32

In addition, following a change-in-control, Mr. Gelfond would receive a cash incentive bonus (the “Incentive Bonus”) equal to the product of (a) 225,000 and (b) the difference between the closing price of the Common Shares upon such change-in-control and the closing price of the Common Shares on March 10, 2006. If there had been a change-in-control of the Company on December 31, 2013, the Incentive Bonus would have been $4,232,250, based on the closing price of the Common Shares on that date ($29.48).

In the event of a change-in-control of the Company, Mr. Gelfond’s unvested stock options will immediately vest. In addition, Mr. Gelfond’s benefits under the SERP also would be accelerated and become payable. Upon a change-in-control, Mr. Gelfond is entitled to the recoupment of certain additional benefits under his SERP entitlement. In 2006, in order to reduce ongoing pension costs to the Company, Mr. Gelfond agreed to a reduction in the cost of living adjustment and surviving spouse benefits previously owed to him under the SERP, subject to the recoupment of a percentage of such benefits upon a change-in-control of the Company. As of December 31, 2013, the value of this recoupment of benefits would have been $3,489,488.

Upon a change-in-control of the Company, the Pre-2014 Options would remain exercisable for the duration of their original term and (i) the 2014 Options would remain exercisable for the shorter of: their original term, and five years; (ii) the 2015 Options would remain exercisable for the shorter of: their original term, and four years; and (iii) the 2016 Options would remain exercisable for the shorter of: their original term, and three years.

If the change-in-control is by way of a stock-for-stock merger, all of Mr. Gelfond’s outstanding unvested stock options will vest and be converted at the stock merger conversion ratio into stock options of the acquiring company (if it is public) or a cash-out of the stock options (if the acquiring company is not public).

If a change-in-control were to have occurred on December 31, 2013, Mr. Gelfond would have been entitled to receive an estimated payment of between $29,676,449 and $34,008,639, depending on the equity assumptions used in calculating the Sale Bonus. This amount includes the Incentive Bonus, the Sale Bonus, the value of his vested SERP benefit and the recoupment of certain SERP benefits.

Effective January 1, 2014, if Mr. Gelfond’s employment were terminated without cause or if he were to resign with good reason following a change-in-control of the Company, Mr. Gelfond would receive a cash payment equal to $3,900,000 for each grant of the 2015 Options and the 2016 Options that has not been made as of the date of such termination or resignation.

If Mr. Gelfond retired or his employment was terminated in connection with a change-in-control, in addition to the amounts described above, Mr. Gelfond would be entitled to receive retiree health benefits, the estimated value of which was $256,000 as of December 31, 2013.

Mr. Sparacio

Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer

Effective January 23, 2012, Mr. Sparacio and the Company amended the terms of his employment agreement, extending the term of his employment agreement through May 14, 2014.

The agreement further provides that Mr. Sparacio is entitled to participate in the Management Bonus Plan and to receive a target annual performance bonus of 35% of his base salary, with the possibility of increasing his bonus to up to 52.5% of his base salary.

Mr. Sparacio’s equity awards outstanding as of December 31, 2013 and their respective exercise prices and expiration dates are set forth above in “Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End”. Upon a termination without cause, Mr. Sparacio’s vested stock options would remain exercisable for a period of six months.

For the term of his employment agreement and for two years thereafter, Mr. Sparacio is subject to customary non-solicitation and non-competition provisions. All severance payments payable under Mr. Sparacio’s employment agreement are subject to Mr. Sparacio’s compliance with the non-solicitation and non-competition provisions of his employment agreement.

In addition, all of Mr. Sparacio’s unexercised stock options and RSUs would be cancelled.

Termination without cause

In the event of a termination without cause (other than upon a change-in-control), Mr. Sparacio would be entitled to receive his accrued and unpaid salary, perquisites and business expenses and any outstanding vacation pay within 30 days of such termination.

33

If Mr. Sparacio’s employment had been terminated without cause (other than upon a change-in-control) as of December 31, 2013, he would have been entitled to receive estimated severance payments totaling $250,803, either in the form of continuance or a lump sum payment, at the Company’s election.

Termination without cause upon a Change-in-Control

In the event of a termination without cause upon a change-in-control, Mr. Sparacio would be entitled to receive his accrued and unpaid salary, perquisites and business expenses and any outstanding vacation pay within 30 days of termination. In addition, Mr. Sparacio would continue to receive his base salary, a pro-rata portion of the target bonus for the year in which the termination occurred, automobile allowance and benefits for the greater of: (i) the remainder of his employment term; and (ii) 12 months following a change-in-control. Finally, all outstanding unvested stock options would vest immediately.

If Mr. Sparacio’s employment had been terminated without cause upon a change-in-control as of December 31, 2013, he would have been entitled to receive estimated severance payments totaling $654,006, either in the form of continuance or a lump sum payment, at the Company’s election. Mr. Sparacio would have realized an estimated payment of $1,217,479, representing the intrinsic value of the accelerated vesting of his unvested, in-the-money, stock options and RSUs calculated using the December 31, 2013 closing price of the Common Shares.

Mr. Foster

See note 14(c) to the audited consolidated financial statements in Item 8 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 for the assumptions used to calculate the fair value of the RSUs. Whether, and to what extent, a director realizes value with respect to RSU awards will depend on the Company’s actual operating performance and stock price fluctuations.

(3) As of December 31, 2013, Mr. Braun held 24,000 stock options to purchase Common Shares in accordance with the SOP.

(4) The director received a grant of 4,756 RSUs on June 12, 2013. The RSUs vested on June 12, 2013.

(10) Mr. MacMillan joined the Board mid-year, being elected to the Board at the June 11, 2013 meeting of shareholders.

(11) As of December 31, 2013, Mr. Pompadur held 34,108 stock options to purchase Common Shares in accordance with the SOP.

(12) As of December 31, 2013, Mr. Utay held 69,880 stock options to purchase Common Shares in accordance with the SOP.

(13) As of December 31, 2013, Mr. Wechsler held 274,000 stock options to purchase Common Shares in accordance with the SOP. 250,000 of Mr. Wechsler’s stock options were granted in connection with his prior employment as the Company’s Co-Chief Executive Officer.

(14) This amount represents the amount paid to Mr. Wechsler pursuant to the services agreement as described below.

(15) Mr. Wechsler received a grant of 6,469 RSUs in recognition of his position of Chairman of the Board. The RSUs vested on June 12, 2013.

(16) This amount reflects: (i) $33,734 for personal use of a Company-provided automobile; (ii) $9,139.84 for retiree health benefit premiums; and (iii) $8,640 for the Supplemental Health plan premiums.

        On December 11, 2008, the Company entered into a services agreement with Mr. Wechsler which provides that, effective April 1, 2009, Mr. Wechsler’s employment as Co-CEO was terminated. The services agreement which has been amended from time to time, provides that Mr. Wechsler will serve as Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors through the earlier of (a) the date on which Mr. Wechsler is not re-appointed as Chairman of the Board, and (b) the date on which the Board of Directors terminates the services agreement. The services agreement was most recently amended as of April 1, 2013. Pursuant to that amendment, effective April 1, 2013, Mr. Wechsler’s compensation for each year served as Chairman increased from $200,000 to $230,000. The services agreement provides that certain other provisions of Mr. Wechsler’s former employment agreement with the Company continue to survive the termination of such employment agreement.

Among the provisions of Mr. Wechsler’s prior employment agreement that survive are those relating to the Sale Bonus and the Incentive Bonus. Upon a sale of the Company, Mr. Wechsler is entitled to receive a cash Sale Bonus in an amount equal to the product of (a) 0.375% and (b) the amount by which the sale or liquidation transaction imputes an equity value in excess of Cdn$150,000,000 to the Common Shares originally issued by the Company (on a fully diluted basis but excluding the Common Shares issued upon the conversion of the Class B convertible preferred shares of the Company formerly outstanding which were converted into Common Shares on June 16, 1994 and the Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants previously owned by Messrs. Gelfond and Wechsler). As of December 31, 2013, the Sale Bonus was estimated by the Company to be between $2,611,281 and $6,943,471, depending upon the equity assumptions used in the relevant calculations.

37

In addition, following a change-in-control, Mr. Wechsler would receive a cash Incentive Bonus equal to the product of (a) 225,000 and (b) the difference between the closing price of the Common Shares upon such change-in-control and the closing price of the Common Shares on March 10, 2006. As of December 31, 2013, the Incentive Bonus would have been $4,232,250, based on the closing price of the Common Shares on that date ($29.48).

Mr. Wechsler participates in the SERP on the same terms as Mr. Gelfond. The SERP provides for a lifetime retirement benefit from age 55 equal to 75% of Mr. Wechsler’s best average 60 consecutive months of earnings over his employment history. The vesting percentage increased on a straight-line basis from inception until age 55. Mr. Wechsler’s SERP benefits became 100% vested on September 14, 2006 and Mr. Wechsler received a lump sum payment for the remaining benefits in August 2010. Mr. Wechsler remains entitled to a recoupment of certain benefits he previously agreed to be reduced under the SERP upon a change-in-control of the Company. In 2006, in order to reduce ongoing pension costs to the Company, Mr. Wechsler agreed to a reduction in the cost of living adjustment and surviving spouse benefits previously owed to him under the SERP, subject to the recoupment of a percentage of such benefits upon a change-in-control of the Company. If there had been a change-in-control of the Company on December 31, 2013, Mr. Wechsler would have been entitled to receive $3,035,172 as a recoupment of such benefits.

The Company has an unfunded retiree health benefit plan covering Mr. Wechsler. The plan provides that the Company will maintain retiree health benefits for Mr. Wechsler until he becomes eligible for Medicare and, thereafter, the Company will provide Medicare supplemental coverage as selected by Mr. Wechsler. As of December 31, 2013, the estimated value of Mr. Wechsler’s retiree health benefits was $191,000.

Effective January 1, 2012, the Company implemented an executive supplemental health reimbursement plan which covers Mr. Wechsler. The plan provides expanded coverage and reimbursement of services not covered by the Company’s medical, dental and vision plans. The Company reimbursed Mr. Wechsler for $8,640 in health premiums in 2013 in connection with this plan.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

The Compensation Committee is currently composed of Messrs. Pompadur (Chairman), Demirian and Utay, all of whom are Independent Directors. All compensation and renewal of employment decisions for Mr. Gelfond in 2013 were made by the Compensation Committee. Compensation decisions made with respect to Mr. Gelfond’s employment arrangements effective January 1, 2014 were made by the full Board of Directors.

The law firm of McCarthy Tétrault LLP, of which Mr. Girvan, a director of the Company, is a senior partner, provided legal services to the Company on several matters in 2013 and is continuing to provide legal services in 2014. In 2013, the Company paid McCarthy Tétrault approximately $1,081,952 in respect of legal services.

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, no executive officer of the Company served on compensation committees or boards of directors of any other entities that had or have had one or more of its executive officers serving as a member of the Company’s Compensation Committee or Board of Directors.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The Board of Directors believes that good corporate governance is fundamental to the overall success of the Company. The Governance Committee of the Board of Directors, which is currently composed of Messrs. Leebron (Chairman), Braun and Girvan, all of whom are Independent Directors, periodically reviews the Company’s corporate governance practices from time to time, as further described in “Corporate Governance Guidelines” as described below.

Management develops an annual operating plan that is submitted to the Board of Directors for its review and approval prior to implementation. The operating plan includes a presentation of the Company’s objectives, plans and performance standards for the year.

Corporate Governance Guidelines

The Board of Directors operates under the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Corporate Governance Guidelines outline the Board of Directors’ authority, responsibilities, composition and procedures.

The role of the Board of Directors is to supervise the business and affairs of the Company, including:

• overseeing the strategic and business planning process(es) within the Company and reviewing, approving and monitoring the annual and long-term operating plans for the Company, including fundamental financial and business strategies and objectives;

• reviewing and assessing the major risks facing the Company and reviewing, approving and monitoring the Company’s approach to addressing such risks;

• developing and reviewing the CEO’s corporate objectives, annually evaluating the performance of the CEO against these objectives, determining his performance-based compensation annually and developing appropriate succession plans, from time to time; and

• reviewing and monitoring the controls and procedures within the Company to maintain its integrity, including its disclosure controls and procedures, its internal controls and procedures for financial reporting and its compliance with its Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.

A current copy of the Corporate Governance Guidelines, the text of which is incorporated by reference into this Circular, is available, without charge, at www.IMAX.com and www.sedar.com or upon written request to the Company at IMAX Corporation, 2525 Speakman Drive, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, L5K 1B1, Attention: Corporate Secretary.

Director Independence

The Board of Directors is comprised of a majority of independent directors as defined under applicable legal, regulatory and stock exchange requirements. Section 303A of the NYSE Listed Company Manual provides that no director qualifies as “independent” unless the Board of Directors affirmatively determines that such director has no material relationship with the Company, and Section 1.2 of National Instrument 58-101 provides that an independent director is a person other than an officer or employee of the Company, or any other individual having a material relationship that in the opinion of the Board of Directors would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of the director. The NYSE Listed Company Manual and National Instrument 58-101 set forth specific categories of relationships that disqualify a director from being independent.

The Board of Directors has reviewed the independence of each director and considered whether any director has a material relationship with the Company. As a result of this review, the Board of Directors affirmatively determined that Messrs. Braun, Demirian, Girvan, Leebron, Lynne, MacMillan, Pompadur and Utay, representing eight of ten directors, are independent within the meaning of the NYSE; Canadian Securities Regulations; and SEC director independence standards, as currently in effect. The Board of Director’s independence determination was based on information provided by the directors and discussions among the officers and directors.

All members of the Compensation Committee, Audit Committee and Governance Committee are considered “independent” under such committee’s independence standards. In the event any transaction or agreement is proposed in respect of which a director has a material interest, the director will recuse himself from voting on that matter and remove himself from the meeting while the transaction at issue is being considered by the Board of Directors.

Board Size and Composition

The Company’s articles provide that the Board of Directors may be comprised of a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 15 directors with the actual number determined from time to time by resolution of the Board of Directors. At a meeting of the Board of Directors held on July 24, 2013, the Board of Directors passed a resolution increasing the number of directors from 9 to 10 directors. Michael Lynne was subsequently appointed to the Board at the meeting, which increased the size of the Company’s Board of Directors to 10 directors.

The Board of Directors recognizes that one of its key responsibilities is to evaluate and determine its optimal governance structure so as to provide independent oversight of management. The Board of Directors has determined that there is no single, generally accepted approach to providing governance and that given the evolving nature of the Company’s business, the right governance structure for the Board of Directors may vary as circumstances warrant. Consistent with this understanding, the Independent Directors consider the Board’s size and composition on an annual basis in connection with its annual self-evaluation.

Mr. Wechsler served as Co-Chairman of the Board of Directors along with Mr. Gelfond from June 1999 to March 2009. On April 1, 2009, Mr. Wechsler became sole Chairman of the Board. By virtue of his prior role as Co-CEO, Mr. Wechsler is not an Independent Director. At present, the Company does not have a lead director. The Chairman of the Board provides leadership for the Independent Directors by chairing the executive sessions of the Board as well as reviewing and modifying board meeting agendas to ensure that the Board of Directors may successfully carry out its duties. In addition, the breadth and depth of the experience of the Independent Directors as a whole provides the Board of Directors with important leadership qualities. Given Mr. Wechsler’s prior role in the Company, the Board of Directors has determined that this board composition structure is optimal for the Company because it provides the Company with strong and consistent oversight.

In considering its governance structure, the Board of Directors has taken a number of factors into consideration. The Board of Directors, with a substantial majority of its directors being Independent Directors, exercises strong, independent oversight. This oversight function is enhanced by the fact that all of the Board Committees and their respective chairpersons are comprised entirely of Independent Directors. A number of processes and procedures of the Board of Directors and of the Committees—including regular executive sessions of the Independent Directors, the ability of Independent Directors to contact one another, the CEO and other executive officers at any time, and the annual evaluations of the performance of the CEO against pre-determined and other criteria—provide independent oversight of the CEO’s performance. The Company has also provided instructions for shareholders and other interested parties to communicate directly with the Board of Directors, see “Shareholder Communications” on page 5. The Board of Directors believes that these factors provide the appropriate balance between the authority of those who oversee the Company and those who manage it on a day-to-day basis.

Risk Management

The Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing the various risks facing the Company. In this regard, the Board of Directors seeks to understand and oversee critical business risks. Risks are considered in virtually every business decision and as part of the Company’s overall business strategy.

39

While the Board of Directors is responsible for reviewing and assessing the major risks facing the Company and reviewing, approving and monitoring the Company’s approach to addressing such risks, Company management is charged with managing risk. The Company has robust internal processes and a strong internal control environment to identify and manage risks and to communicate with the Board of Directors through senior management. These include an enterprise risk management program, regular internal management disclosure committee meetings, a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and Whistle Blower Program, rigorous product quality standards and processes, and a comprehensive internal and external audit process. The Board of Directors and the Audit Committee monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of the internal controls and the risk management program at least annually. Management communicates routinely with the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee on the significant risks identified and how they are being managed. The Board of Directors implements its risk oversight function both as a whole and through the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee oversees risks related to the Company’s financial statements, the financial reporting process, accounting and legal matters. The Audit Committee oversees the internal audit function and the Company’s Whistle Blower Program. The Audit Committee members meet separately with the Company’s CEO and representatives of the independent auditing firm a minimum of four times per year.

The Board of Directors regularly engages in discussion of financial, legal, business, technology, economic and other risks. Because overseeing risk is an ongoing process and inherent in the Company’s strategic decisions, the Board of Directors also discusses risk in relation to specific proposed actions.

Nomination Process

The Governance Committee is responsible for identifying and recommending candidates for election or re-election to the Board of Directors. Such candidates are then nominated for election by a majority of Independent Directors. The Governance Committee does not set forth specific, minimum qualifications that nominees must possess in order for the Governance Committee to recommend them to the Board of Directors, but rather believes that each nominee should be evaluated in light of opportunities and risks facing the Company and the competencies, skills and personal qualities that are desirable to contribute to the effective governance of the Company. In evaluating potential nominees for election and re-election as members of the Board of Directors, the Governance Committee seeks nominees that:

• manifest the highest integrity and that possess the highest personal and professional ethics;

• have significant business experience or other organizational leadership experience that will allow the nominee to contribute significantly to the Company as a member of the Board of Directors;

• have the willingness and an ability to make the necessary time commitment to actively participate as a member of the Board of Directors;

• exhibit sound business judgment; and

• are committed to representing the long-term interests of the Company and its shareholders.

Candidates are identified from a number of sources including recommendations from Board members, management, shareholders and others. The Company retained Spencer Stuart & Associates (Canada) Ltd. in 2012 and 2013 to assist with the identification and evaluation of potential nominees for the Company’s Board of Directors. The Governance Committee will consider any nominee recommended by a shareholder under the same criteria as any other potential nominee.

Shareholders who wish to have the Governance Committee consider the nomination of any person for director at the 2015 meeting of shareholders should submit a shareholder proposal made in accordance with the provisions of the CBCA to the Company at IMAX Corporation, 2525 Speakman Drive, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, L5K 1B1, Attention: Corporate Secretary no later than December 23, 2014, or if the proposed amendment to the Company’s By-Law No. 1 regarding Advance Notice Provisions are confirmed by the Company’s shareholders at the Special Meeting, by submitting a timely notice in compliance with the notice procedures set forth in By-Law No.1 to the Company at IMAX Corporation, 2525 Speakman Drive, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, L5K 1B1, Attention: Corporate Secretary. The Company may require that a proposed nominee furnish additional information as may be reasonably required to determine the qualifications of such proposed nominee to serve as a director of the Company.

        The Governance Committee Charter mandates that the Governance Committee review, on a periodic basis, the current composition of the Board of Directors in light of the characteristics of independence, diversity, age, competencies, skills, experience, availability of service to the Company and tenure of the Board members and of the Board of Directors’ anticipated needs. While the Governance Committee does not have a formal policy specifying how diversity of background and personal experience should be applied in reviewing the current composition of the Board of Directors or in identifying or evaluating candidates for the Board of Directors, the Governance Committee is committed to having a diverse Board of Directors in that it seeks individuals from different backgrounds with varying perspectives, professional experience, education and skills. In evaluating a potential candidate, the Governance Committee will consider that individual’s background, experience and characteristics in the context of the composition of the Board as a whole. The Company believes that having a diverse Board of Directors helps to ensure a variety of points of view, which, in turn, ensures more effective decision-making.

A current copy of the Governance Committee Charter is available at www.IMAX.com or upon written request to the Company at IMAX Corporation, 2525 Speakman Drive, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, L5K 1B1, Attention: Corporate Secretary.

Meetings of the Board of Directors and its Committees

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, the Board of Directors held ten (10) meetings. The Audit Committee held five (5) meetings. The Compensation Committee held eight (8) meetings. The Governance Committee held one (1) meeting. Each incumbent director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of the total number of meetings of the Board of Directors and Committees of the Board on which such director served during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. The Directors are given the opportunity to hold executive sessions (where members of management are not in attendance) at all regularly scheduled Board of Directors meetings. A total of eight (8) such executive sessions of the Board of Directors were held during 2013.

The IMAX Board of Directors does not have a single director chosen to preside over the regularly scheduled (quarterly) executive sessions. Executive sessions which follow Board meetings are usually informal discussions which are often led by the Chairman of the Board or a Chairman of one of the Board Committees, depending on the subjects to be discussed. The Chairman of the Board reviews the matters to be discussed in executive session and determines which board member or Committee Chair is best placed to preside over the executive session.

The following directors attended the following number of Board of Directors meetings during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013:

Bradley J. Wechsler	10/10		Garth M. Girvan	10/10		I. Martin Pompadur	9/10
Neil S. Braun	10/10		David W. Leebron	9/10		Marc A. Utay	8/10
Eric A. Demirian	9/10		Michael Lynne	5/5	(2)
Richard L. Gelfond	8/10	(1)	Michael MacMillan	5/6	(3)

(1) Mr. Gelfond did not attend one meeting of the Board of Directors which was held for the purpose of discussing the CEO’s compensation.

(2) Mr. Lynne joined the Board mid-year, being appointed to the Board at the July 24, 2013 meeting of the Board of Directors.

All of the members of the Audit Committee are Independent Directors and hold in camera sessions where members of management are not in attendance at least once each fiscal quarter. A total of four (4) such in camera sessions were held during 2013.

While the Company encourages directors to attend its annual meeting of shareholders, it has no formal policy concerning such attendance. All of the then-current eight (8) directors attended last year’s annual meeting of shareholders.

To assist it in discharging its duties effectively, the Board of Directors has delegated some of its duties to three specific committees of the Board: the Audit Committee; the Compensation Committee and the Governance Committee. Each of these committees and their respective chairs are appointed annually by the Board of Directors. Each committee has a written mandate which sets out its principal duties and responsibilities. Each committee has the authority to retain special legal, accounting or other advisors.

Audit Committee

        The Audit Committee is currently composed of Messrs. Demirian (Chairman), Braun, and Leebron, each of whom are Independent Directors who meet the independence and other requirements of the NYSE and Canadian National Instrument 52-110 standards applicable to Audit Committee members. The Board of Directors has established the Audit Committee for the purpose of overseeing the quality and integrity of the Company’s financial statements and related disclosure, the Company’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, the independent auditors’ qualifications and independence and the performance of the Company’s internal audit function, internal controls and procedures and the performance of the independent auditors. Each committee member has experience with various businesses and professions, which are relevant to their understanding of the accounting principles used by the Company in preparing its financial statements and to their understanding of the general applications of such accounting principles in connection with the accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves. These experiences have been with companies, businesses and professional organizations presenting a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues generally comparable to those reasonably expected to be raised by the Company’s financial statements and have provided them with an understanding of internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Demirian qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as that term is defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K as a result of Mr. Demirian’s qualifications as a Chartered Professional Accountant, a Chartered Accountant and as a Certified General Accountant, Mr. Demirian serves as the Chair of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee operates under a written mandate adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors. A current copy of the Audit Committee Charter is available at www.IMAX.com or upon written request to the Company at IMAX Corporation, 2525 Speakman Drive, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, L5K 1B1, Attention: Corporate Secretary. The information in the preceding two sentences shall not be deemed to be “soliciting material” or to be “filed” with the SEC, nor shall such information be incorporated by reference into any future filing under the 1933 Act, or the Exchange Act, as amended, except to the extent that the Company specifically incorporates it by reference in such filing.

The Audit Committee meets with the external auditors of the Company, both with and without management present, to review and discuss the Company’s accounting policies, its quarterly and year-end financial statement information and their presentation, and significant financial issues which may arise for the Company.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee is currently composed of Messrs. Pompadur (Chairman), Demirian and Utay, all of whom are Independent Directors. The Compensation Committee is responsible for evaluating and making recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding the equity-based and incentive compensation plans, policies and programs of the Company. In addition, the Compensation Committee approves or recommends to the Board of Directors, the compensation package (including components, quantum and timing) for the Company’s CEO, setting of his performance objectives, and an assessment of his performance on a periodic basis. On an annual basis, the Compensation Committee reviews and approves the components and the amount of compensation paid to the Company’s executive officers. The Compensation Committee made recommendations to the Board of Directors with respect to the bonus paid to Mr. Gelfond in respect of 2013. The Compensation Committee operates under a written mandate adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors. A current copy of the Compensation Committee Charter is available at www.IMAX.com or upon written request to the Company at IMAX Corporation, 2525 Speakman Drive, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, L5K 1B1, Attention: Corporate Secretary.

The Compensation Committee is responsible for performing the functions required of it under the Company’s equity award plans, including the grant of stock options and RSUs from time to time, which grants are subject to guidelines determined by the Company’s Human Resources department and the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee enacts written resolutions from time to time authorizing the grant of stock options.

Governance Committee

The Governance Committee is currently composed of Messrs. Leebron (Chairman), Braun and Girvan, all of whom are Independent Directors. The Governance Committee is responsible for monitoring and evaluating the Company’s corporate polices and governance practices, monitoring significant developments in the law and practice of corporate governance, monitoring and evaluating the Company’s compliance with the law, monitoring and evaluating compliance with the Company’s articles, by-laws and governance agreements, and monitoring the effectiveness of the Board of Directors and Board Committees in the discharge of their general oversight responsibilities.

The Governance Committee is responsible for identifying and recommending candidates for election to the Board of Directors. The Governance Committee evaluates potential new candidates for the Board of Directors on an ongoing basis in light of the opportunities and risks facing the Company and the competencies, skills and personal qualities that are desirable to add value to the Company and to contribute to effective governance of the Company. The Governance Committee operates under a written mandate adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors. A current copy of the Governance Committee Charter is available at www.IMAX.com or upon written request to the Company at IMAX Corporation, 2525 Speakman Drive, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, L5K 1B1, Attention: Corporate Secretary.

Mercer was retained by the Compensation Committee in 2013 to assess the competitiveness of current compensation to the Board of Directors. Following consideration by the Compensation and Governance Committees of Mercer’s recommendations for changes to the existing levels and mix of compensation, the Board of Directors approved a new compensation structure for the Board which took effect June 11, 2013.

Orientation and Education

The Company has developed and implemented orientation materials and procedures for new directors. In this regard, a Board of Directors Manual is provided to all new Board members. New directors also have access to fellow directors and senior management and are invited to attend orientation sessions as necessary. Reports, materials and presentations relating to the Company’s business are provided to the Board of Directors on a periodic basis.

Board and Committee Self-Assessment

Periodically, and at least annually, each director and committee member completes a review and self-evaluation of the Board of Directors’ and Board Committees’ operating effectiveness. The input is summarized on a confidential basis and provided to the Chairman of the Board and Chairman of the Governance Committee. The results of the evaluations are reported to the Board of Directors. Any agreed upon improvements are implemented as applicable.

Written Position Descriptions

        The Board of Directors has not developed a written position description for the Chairman of the Board or for the Chairman of each Committee; however, the Board of Directors is responsible for the appointment of each Chairman of a Board Committee. The Board of Directors and Committees of the Board each operate within written mandates established and periodically reviewed by the Board of Directors. The Chairman of each committee is responsible for reporting on the activities of that committee to the full Board of Directors on a periodic basis.

The Board of Directors has not developed written position descriptions for the CEO. The Board of Directors and the CEO develop, on an annual basis, detailed written corporate objectives and parameters in which the CEO operates the business of the Company. The Board of Directors is also responsible for annually evaluating the CEO against these objectives.

Directors’ Share Ownership Guidelines

To support the alignment of Directors’ interests with those of our shareholders, non-management Directors are expected, in accordance with the Share Ownership Guidelines, to achieve and maintain share ownership of at least two times their annual retainer. Directors subject to the policy will have to satisfy the guidelines within four years of becoming subject to the policy (or plan inception, if later). As of April 22, 2014, all of the non-management Directors had met the share ownership guidelines within the required time frame.

CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS

The Company has a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics applicable to all employees, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Controller and all other persons performing similar functions, and all directors and consultants. Any incidence or reports made in connection with potential violation of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics are reported to the Audit Committee through i) the Whistle Blower hotline, or ii) the Company’s internal audit function. The code is distributed to applicable individuals on commencement of service, and annually thereafter, who are required to acknowledge receipt, read and agree to abide by the code. A current copy of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is available, without charge, at www.IMAX.com or upon written request to the Company at IMAX Corporation, 2525 Speakman Drive, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, L5K 1B1, Attention: Corporate Secretary. Any amendments to, or waivers of, the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics which specifically relate to any financial professional will be disclosed promptly following the date of such amendment or waiver at www.IMAX.com.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The Company presents adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share as supplemental measures of performance of the Company, which are not recognized under United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Company presents adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share because it believes that they are important supplemental measures of its comparable controllable operating performance and it wants to ensure that its investors fully understand the impact of its stock-based compensation (net of any related tax impact) on its net income. Management uses these measures to review operating performance on a comparable basis from period to period. However, these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, net income and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated on a basis consistent with the Company’s Credit Facility, which refers to Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA. The Credit Facility provides that the Company will be required to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of not less than 1.1:1. The Company will also be required to maintain minimum EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of $80.0 million on December 31, 2013, which increases to $90.0 million on December 31, 2014, and $100.0 million on December 31, 2015. The Company must also maintain a Maximum Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of 2.25:1 on December 31, 2013, which requirement decreases to 2.0:1 on December 31, 2014, and 1.75:1 on December 31, 2015. The ratio of total debt to EBITDA was nil:1 as at December 31, 2013, where Total Debt (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is the sum of all obligations evidenced by notes, bonds, debentures or similar instruments and was $nil. EBITDA is calculated as follows:

	For the 3 months ended December 31, 2013		For the 12 months ended December 31, 2013
(In thousands of U.S. Dollars)
Net income	$	27,829	$	44,115

Cash provided by operating activities consist of net income, plus depreciation and amortization, plus the change in deferred income taxes, plus other non-cash items, plus changes in working capital, less investment in film assets, plus other changes in operating assets and liabilities. Cash used in investing activities includes capital expenditures, acquisitions and other cash used in investing activities.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

No director or executive officer of the Company, or any security holder of record as of the date of this Circular who owned, of record or to the Company’s knowledge, more than 5% of the Company’s outstanding Common Shares, or any member of such person’s immediate family, had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction during the last fiscal year, or since the commencement of the current fiscal year, in any completed or proposed transaction, except for the following:

The law firm of McCarthy Tétrault LLP, of which Mr. Girvan, a director of the Company, is a senior partner, provided legal services to the Company on several matters in 2013 and is continuing to provide legal services in 2014. In 2013, the Company paid McCarthy Tétrault approximately $1,081,952 in respect of legal services.

Patricia Keighley is the spouse of David Keighley, who is an executive officer of the Company. Ms. Keighley, Senior Vice President of the Company and Managing Director of IMAX Post/DKP Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, has been employed by the Company since February 1988. Ms. Keighley received compensation of approximately $232,014 in respect of 2013.

Andrew Cripps, an executive officer of the Company, joined the Company on February 27, 2012 as Executive Vice President and President, EMEA. Prior to joining the Company, Mr. Cripps served as President of Paramount Pictures International (“PPI”). During 2011, in his prior role as President of PPI, Mr. Cripps provided final approval with respect to the release by PPI of 7 IMAX films: Thor: An IMAX 3D Experience; Kung Fu Panda 2: An IMAX 3D Experience; Super 8: The IMAX Experience; Transformers: Dark of the Moon: An IMAX 3D Experience; Cowboys & Aliens: The IMAX Experience; Puss in Boots: An IMAX 3D Experience and Mission: Impossible—Ghost Protocol: The IMAX Experience.

On May 5, 2008, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Douglas Agreement”) with K&M Douglas Trust, Douglas Family Trust, James Douglas and Jean Douglas Irrevocable Descendants’ Trust and James E. Douglas III (collectively, the “Douglas Group”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and the Douglas Group agreed to purchase 2,726,447 Common Shares (the “Douglas Shares”) for aggregate consideration of $18 million or approximately $6.60 per share (the equivalent of the average of the closing price of the Company’s Common Shares over the five trading days immediately preceding the date of the Douglas Agreement). The private placement closed on May 8, 2008. The Douglas Group, which currently owns 13.5% of the outstanding Common Shares, agreed to a five-year standstill with the Company whereby it will refrain from certain activities, including: (i) increasing its percentage ownership in the Company; (ii) seeking to influence the management of the Company or soliciting proxies; (iii) entering into fundamental or change-in-control transactions with respect to the Company; and (iv) selling or transferring any Common Shares to a person or group that would own 5% or more of the Common Shares following such sale or transfer.

In February 2014, the Company filed a new registration statement on Form S-3 to replace the expired registration statement. The Company has agreed to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement, subject to permitted suspensions, until the Douglas Group has sold, or may sell without restriction, the Douglas Shares.

Though numerous provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement were terminated in 2002 when WP ceased to be a shareholder of the Company, each of Messrs. Gelfond and Wechsler retain the right to cause the Company to use its best efforts to register their securities under the 1933 Act. Messrs. Gelfond and Wechsler are entitled to make two such demand registrations. Messrs. Gelfond and Wechsler also have unlimited piggyback rights to register their securities under the Registration Rights Agreement whenever the Company proposes to register any securities under the 1933 Act, other than the registration of securities pursuant to an initial public offering or the registration of securities on Form S-4 or S-8 under the 1933 Act or filed in connection with an exchange offer or an offering of securities solely to the Company’s existing shareholders.

        Messrs. Gelfond and Wechsler and certain other shareholders of the Company entered into another shareholders’ agreement on January 3, 1994 as amended on March 1, 1994 which includes, among other things, registration rights, tag along rights and drag along rights.

REVIEW, APPROVAL OR RATIFICATION OF TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS

On a regular basis, the Company requires that its directors, nominees for director and executive officers identify to the Board of Directors, transactions and/or relationships which could constitute transactions with a related person as defined in Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. For any potential transaction in which a director, executive officer or other related person would have a material interest, such transaction is reviewed, in advance, by the Company’s General Counsel and Chief Compliance Officer to ensure compliance with the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and to evaluate the disclosure requirements under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. Currently, the Company does not have a formal written policy governing transactions with related persons. In the event any transaction or agreement occurs in respect of which a director has a material interest, the director must recuse himself from voting on that matter and remove himself from the meeting while the transaction at issue is being considered by the Board of Directors. The minutes of the Board of Directors’ meeting would reflect the nature of the interest disclosed and the fact of the recusal.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The following is the report of the Audit Committee with respect to the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 with senior management. The Audit Committee meets privately with PwC on a periodic basis and PwC has unrestricted access to the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee has discussed with PwC the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended (AICPA, Professional Standards, Vol. 1, AU section 380), as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Rule 3200T, which include, among other items, matters related to the conduct of the audit of the Company’s financial statements. The Audit Committee has also received written disclosures and the letter from PwC required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (which relates to the accountant’s independence from the Company and related entities) and has discussed with PwC their independence from the Company. As part of its responsibilities for oversight of the Company’s enterprise risk management process, the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the Company’s policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management, including discussions of individual risk areas as well as an annual summary of the overall process.

Based on the review and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Company’s Board of Directors that the Company’s audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 for filing with the SEC and the Company’s Annual Information Form for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

The Corporation shall indemnify a director or officer of the Corporation, a former director or officer of the Corporation or a person who acts or acted at the Corporation’s request as a director or officer of a body corporate of which the Corporation is or was a shareholder or creditor, and his heirs and legal representatives to the extent permitted by the Act.

8.2 Indemnity of Others. Except as otherwise required by the Act and subject to paragraph 7.1, the Corporation may from time to time indemnify and save harmless any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that he is or was an employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, agent of or participant in another body corporate, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including legal fees), judgments, fines and any amount actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Corporation and, with respect to any criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, had reasonable grounds for believing that his conduct was lawful.

A-5

8.3 Right of Indemnity Not Exclusive.

If any director or officer of the Corporation shall be employed by or shall perform services for the Corporation otherwise than as a director or officer or shall be a member of a firm or a shareholder, director or officer of a body corporate which is employed by or performs services for the Corporation, the fact of his being a director or officer of the Corporation shall not disentitle such director or officer or such firm or body corporate, as the case may be, from receiving proper remuneration for such services.

Section 9

MISCELLANEOUS

Any such waiver or abridgment shall be in writing except a waiver of notice of a meeting of shareholders or of the Board or of a committee of the Board which may be given in any manner.

9.4 Invalidity of any Provisions of this By-law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this by-law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this by-law.
