Director Notification

It is with great sadness that the Company confirms that it has been informed of the death of Ron Atkey, a Director of Entertainment One since November 2010.

The Company will separately announce an update on future Board composition.

Allan Leighton, Chairman, commented:

"The Board and employees of Entertainment One would like to extend their sincere condolences to Ron's family. Ron was a very diligent and supportive director of eOne and a real gentleman. We will miss him greatly."

Darren Throop, CEO, commented:

"I have counted on Ron's professional counsel and personal friendship for over fifteen years. Over that period, Ron has played a significant role both in developing eOne into the company that it is now and more widely in his stewardship of Canada's cultural industries. Ron was a great friend, mentor and inspiration to many at eOne and we will long remember his contribution to the Company and to the wider entertainment industry."
