PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS
The Walt Disney Company, together with its subsidiaries, is a diversified worldwide entertainment company with operations in three business segments:
Creative Content, Broadcasting and Theme Parks and Resorts. Information on revenues, operating income, identifiable assets and supplemental revenue of the Company's business segments appears in Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 hereof. The Company employs approximately 108,000 people.

On February 9, 1996, the Company completed its acquisition of ABC, Inc. ("ABC"). Information on the acquisition appears in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 hereof. As a result of the acquisition, a new parent company, with the name "The Walt Disney Company," replaced the old parent company of the same name. For convenience, the term "Company" is used in this report to refer to both the old and the new parent company. Unless the context otherwise requires, the term is also used to refer collectively to the parent company and the subsidiaries through which its various businesses are actually conducted.

CREATIVE CONTENT

The Creative Content segment produces live-action and animated motion pictures, television programs and musical recordings, licenses the Company's characters and other intellectual property for use in connection with merchandise and publications, and publishes books and magazines. Within the segment, films and characters are often promoted through the release of audiocassettes and compact discs, children's books and magazines. In addition, television programs have been created that contain characters originated in animated films. Character merchandising and publications licensing promote the Company's films and television programs, as well as the Company's other operations. The Company also operates the Disney Stores, which are direct retail distribution outlets for products based on the Company's characters and films. The Company is also engaged directly in the home video and television distribution of its film and television library.

The Company is an industry leader in producing and acquiring live-action and animated motion pictures for distribution to the theatrical, television and home video markets, and producing original television programming for the network and first-run syndication markets. In addition, the Company produces music recordings and live stage plays. The Company licenses the name "Walt Disney," as well as the Company's characters, visual and literary properties and songs and music, to various consumer manufacturers, retailers, show promoters and publishers throughout the world. Company subsidiaries also engage in direct retail distribution through The Disney Stores; publish books, magazines and comics in the United States and Europe; and produce popular music, children's audio products and computer software for all markets, as well as film and video products for the educational marketplace.

THEATRICAL FILMS
Walt Disney Pictures and Television, a subsidiary of the Company, produces and acquires live-action motion pictures that are distributed under the banners Walt Disney Pictures, Touchstone Pictures, Hollywood Pictures and Caravan Pictures. Another subsidiary, Miramax Film Corp., acquires and produces motion pictures that are primarily distributed under the Miramax banner. The Company also produces and distributes animated motion pictures under the banner Walt Disney Pictures. In addition, the Company distributes films produced or acquired by certain independent production companies.

The Company is in the process of implementing a new motion pictures strategy, which is being phased-in over the next several years. The Company intends to release fewer films, but increase per film expenditures. Accordingly, total film expenditures are expected to approximate current levels.

-1-

During 1998, the Company expects to distribute approximately 20 feature films under the Company's various banners and approximately 30 additional films under the Miramax banner, including several live-action family feature films and one to two full-length animated films, with the remainder targeted to teenagers and adults. In addition, the Company periodically reissues previously released animated films. As of September 30, 1997, the Company had released 480 full-length live-action features (primarily color), 35 full- length animated color features and approximately 476 cartoon shorts.

The Company distributes and markets its filmed products principally through its own distribution and marketing companies in the United States and major foreign markets. In 1997, the Company's international distributor, Buena Vista International, became the first international distribution company to gross more than $1 billion at the box office for three consecutive years.

HOME VIDEO
The Company directly distributes home video releases from each of its banners in the domestic market. In the international market, the Company distributes both directly and through foreign distribution companies. In addition, the Company develops, acquires and produces original programming for direct-to-video release. In 1997, the Company distributed seven of the ten top-selling home videos. As of September 30, 1997, approximately 1,100 produced and acquired titles, including 531 feature films and 408 cartoon shorts and animated features, were available to the domestic marketplace. Approximately 880 produced and acquired titles, including 468 feature films and 415 cartoon shorts and animated features, were available to the international home entertainment market.

TELEVISION PRODUCTION AND DISTRIBUTION
The Company develops, produces and distributes television programming to broadcasters, cable and satellite operators, including the major television networks, The Disney Channel and other cable broadcasters, under the Buena Vista Television, Touchstone Television and Walt Disney Television labels. Program development is carried out in collaboration with a number of independent writers, producers and creative teams under various development arrangements. The Company focuses on the development, production and distribution of half-hour comedies and one-hour dramas for network prime-time broadcast. The fall 1997 series included renewals of the half-hour comedies Home Improvement, Ellen, Boy Meets World and Spin City. New half-hour series premiering in fall 1997 included Soul Man, Hiller and Diller and Teen Angel.

The Company is also producing 18 original television movies for the relaunch of The Wonderful World of Disney, which began airing on ABC Sunday evenings in fall 1997. The 1997-98 television season features the launch of Disney's One Saturday Morning on ABC. One Saturday Morning is a two-hour live-action show comprised of audience participation segments, cartoons and pre-recorded comedy segments that "wrap-around" the weekly series Brand Spankin' New Doug, Disney's Recess and Disney's Pepper Ann. Other television Animation series on ABC include 101 Dalmatians: The Series, Jungle Cubs and The New Adventures of Winnie The Pooh.

The Company also provides a variety of prime-time specials for exhibition on network television. Additionally, the Company produces first-run animated and live-action syndicated programming. The Disney Afternoon is a 1 1/2 hour block, airing five days per week, including 101 Dalmatians, Quack Pack, Mighty Ducks and Ducktales. Live-action programming includes Live! With Regis and Kathie Lee, a daily talk show; The Keenen Ivory Wayans Show, a daily late- night talk show; Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, a weekly family action hour; Siskel & Ebert, a weekly motion picture review program; Disney Presents, Bill Nye the Science Guy, and Sing Me a Story with Belle, weekly educational programs for children as well as daily game shows on cable including Debt, Make Me Laugh, and Win Ben Stein's Money.

The Company licenses the theatrical and television film library to the domestic television syndication market. Television programs in off-network syndication or cable include Home Improvement, Boy Meets World, Blossom, Dinosaurs, Golden Girls and Empty Nest. Major packages of the Company's feature films and television programming have been licensed for broadcast over several years.

-2-

The Company also licenses its theatrical and television properties in a number of foreign television markets. In addition, certain of the Company's television programs are syndicated by the Company abroad, including The Disney Club, a weekly series that the Company produces for foreign markets.

The Company has licensed to the Encore pay television service, over a multi- year period, exclusive domestic pay television rights to certain films released under the Miramax, Touchstone, Hollywood and Walt Disney Pictures banners.

AUDIO PRODUCTS AND MUSIC PUBLISHING
The Company also produces and distributes compact discs, audiocassettes and records, consisting primarily of soundtracks for animated films and read-along products, directed at the children's market in the United States, France and the United Kingdom, and licenses the creation of similar products throughout the rest of the world. In addition, the Company commissions new music for its motion pictures, television programs and records and exploits the song copyrights created for the Company by licensing others to produce and distribute printed music, records, audiovisual devices and public performances.

Domestic retail sales of compact discs, audiocassettes and records are the largest source of music-related revenues, while direct marketing, which utilizes catalogs, coupon packages and television, is a secondary means of music distribution for the Company.

The Company's Hollywood Records subsidiary develops, produces and markets recordings from new talent across the spectrum of popular music, as well as soundtracks from certain of the Company's live-action motion pictures. The Company also has a Nashville-based music label, Lyric Street Records.

In September 1997, the Company purchased Mammoth Records, which develops, produces and markets a diverse group of artists in the popular and alternative music fields.

WALT DISNEY THEATRICAL PRODUCTIONS
In 1994, the Company produced an adaptation of its animated feature film Beauty and the Beast for the Broadway stage. The production celebrated its fourth anniversary on Broadway this year and is currently touring the United States. The show has also been produced in six countries around the world. In November 1997, the Broadway production of The Lion King opened at the newly renovated New Amsterdam Theatre.

CHARACTER MERCHANDISE AND PUBLICATIONS LICENSING
The Company's worldwide licensing activities generate royalties, which are usually based on a fixed percentage of the wholesale or retail selling price of the licensee's products. The Company licenses characters based upon both traditional and newly created film properties. Character merchandise categories that have been licensed include apparel, watches, toys, gifts, housewares, stationery, sporting goods and domestic items such as sheets and towels. Publication categories that have been licensed include continuity- series books, book sets, art and picture books and magazines.

In addition to receiving licensing fees, the Company is actively involved in the development and approval of licensed merchandise and in the conceptualization, development, writing and illustration of licensed publications. The Company continually seeks to create new characters to be used in licensed products.

THE DISNEY STORES
The Company markets Disney-related products directly through its retail facilities operated under "The Disney Store" name. These facilities are generally located in leading shopping malls and similar retail complexes. The stores carry a wide variety of Disney merchandise and promote other businesses of the Company. During fiscal 1997, the Company opened 58 new stores in the United States and Canada, 19 in Europe and 29 in the Asia-Pacific area, bringing the total number of stores to 636 as of

-3-

September 30, 1997. The Company expects to open additional stores in the future in selected markets throughout the United States, as well as in Asia- Pacific, European and Latin American countries.

BOOKS AND MAGAZINES
The Company has book imprints in the United States offering books for children and adults. The Company also produces several magazines including W, Jane, Los Angeles, Family Fun, Disney Adventures as well as Discover, a general science magazine. In addition, the Company is a partner in a joint venture which produces children's books and magazines and computer software magazines in France.

MULTIMEDIA
Disney Interactive is a software business that licenses, develops and markets entertainment and educational computer software and video game titles for home and school. The Disney Online business develops, publishes and distributes content for narrow-band on-line services, the interactive software market, interactive television platforms, Internet web sites, including Disney.com and Disney's Daily Blast, and other emerging technology ventures.

OTHER ACTIVITIES
The Company produces audiovisual materials for the educational market, including videocassettes and film strips. It also licenses the manufacture and sale of posters and other teaching aids. The Company markets and distributes, through various channels, animation cel art and other animation-related artwork and collectibles.

COMPETITIVE POSITION
The success of the Creative Content operations is heavily dependent upon public taste, which is unpredictable and subject to change. In addition, filmed entertainment operating results fluctuate due to the timing and performance of theatrical and home video releases. Release dates are determined by several factors, including timing of vacation and holiday periods and competition. Operating results for the licensing and retail distribution business are influenced by seasonal consumer purchasing behavior and by the timing and performance of animated theatrical releases.

The Company's Creative Content businesses compete with all forms of entertainment. A significant number of companies produce and/or distribute theatrical and television films, exploit products in the home video market, provide pay television programming services, sponsor live theater, and/or produce interactive software. The Company also competes to obtain creative talents, story properties, advertiser support, broadcast rights and market share, which are essential to the success of all of the Company's Creative Content businesses.

The Company competes in its character merchandising and other licensing, publishing and retail activities with other licensers, publishers and retailers of character, brand and celebrity names. Although public information is limited, the Company believes it is the largest worldwide licenser of character-based merchandise and producer/distributor of children's audio and film-related products.

BROADCASTING

TELEVISION AND RADIO NETWORKS
The Company operates the ABC Television Network, which as of September 30, 1997 had 223 primary affiliated stations operating under long-term agreements reaching 99.9% of all U.S. television households. The ABC Television Network broadcasts programs in "dayparts" and types as follows: Monday through Friday Early Morning, Daytime and Late Night, Monday through Sunday Prime Time and News, Children's and Sports. The Company also operates the ABC Radio Networks, which reach more than 140 million domestic listeners weekly and consists of over 7,200 program affiliations on more than 2,900 radio stations. During 1997, the Company launched Radio Disney, a 24-hour

-4-

children's radio network. The ABC Radio Networks also produce and distribute a number of radio program series for radio stations nationwide and can be heard in more than 90 countries worldwide.

Generally, the networks pay the cost of producing their own programs or acquiring broadcast rights from other producers for network programming and pay varying amounts of compensation to affiliated stations for broadcasting the programs and commercial announcements included therein. Substantially all revenues from network operations are derived from the sale to advertisers of time in network programs for commercial announcements. The ability to sell time for commercial announcements and the rates received are dependent on many factors, primarily the quantitative and qualitative audience that the network can deliver to the advertiser, as well as overall advertiser demand for time in the network marketplace.

TELEVISION AND RADIO STATIONS
The Company owns nine very high frequency (VHF) television stations, five of which are located in the top ten markets in the United States; one ultra high frequency (UHF) television station; eleven standard (AM) radio stations; and fifteen frequency modulation (FM) radio stations. All of the television stations are affiliated with the ABC Television Network, and 21 of the 26 radio stations are affiliated with the ABC Radio Networks. The Company's television stations reach 24% of the nation's television households, calculated using the multiple ownership rules of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The Company's radio stations reach more than 14 million people weekly in the top twenty United States advertising markets. Markets, frequencies and other station details are set forth in the following tables:

CABLE AND INTERNATIONAL BROADCAST
The Company's cable and international broadcast operations are principally involved in the production and distribution of cable television programming, the licensing of programming to domestic and international markets and investment in joint ventures in foreign-based television operations and television production and distribution entities. The Company owns The Disney Channel, 80% of ESPN Inc., 37.5% of the A&E Television Networks, 50% of Lifetime Entertainment Services, 34.4% of E! Entertainment Television and has various other international investments. During the first quarter of 1998, the Company acquired the Classic Sports Network.

The Disney Channel, which has approximately 30 million domestic and 7 million international subscribers, is a cable and satellite television service. New shows developed for original use by The Disney Channel include dramatic, adventure, comedy and educational series, as well as documentaries and first-run television movies. In addition, entertainment specials include shows originating from both the Walt Disney World Resort(R) and Disneyland Park(R). The balance of the programming consists of products acquired from third parties and products from the Company's theatrical film and television programming library. The Disney Channel Taiwan and U.K. premiered in 1995, followed by the launch of The Disney Channel Australia in 1996. The Company began broadcasting The Disney Channel Malaysia in October 1996, The Disney Channel France in March 1997 and The Disney Channel Middle East in April 1997. Planned launches in 1998 include, The Disney Channel Italy and Spain. The Company continues to explore the development of The Disney Channel in other countries around the world.

ESPN Inc. operates ESPN, a cable and satellite sports programming service reaching 72 million subscribers domestically and 152 million households in 190 countries internationally, ESPN2, which reaches 50 million domestic subscribers, and in 1997 began broadcasting ESPNews, a 24-hour sports news cable channel, that reaches approximately 5 million subscribers nationwide. ESPN also owns 33% of Eurosport, a pan-European satellite-delivered cable and direct-to-home sports programming service, 25% of Sportsvision Australia and 50% of ESPN Brazil. ESPN owns a 50% interest in the ESPN STAR joint venture which delivers sports programming throughout most of Asia and 33% of the Net Star venture which owns The Sports Network, among other media properties in Canada.

The A&E Television Network is a cable programming service devoted to cultural and entertainment programming reaching 78 million subscribers. The History Channel, which is owned by A&E, reaches 36 million subscribers.

-6-

Lifetime Entertainment Services owns Lifetime Television, which reaches 69 million cable subscribers and is devoted to women's lifestyle programming.

The Classic Sports Network is a cable programming service devoted to memorable sporting events reaching 10 million subscribers.

The Company's share of the financial results of the cable and international broadcast services, other than The Disney Channel and ESPN Inc., are reported under the heading "Corporate activities and other" in the Company's consolidated statements of income.

COMPETITIVE POSITION
The ABC Television Network, The Disney Channel, ESPN and other broadcasting affiliates primarily compete for viewers with the other television networks, independent television stations, other video media such as cable television, satellite television program services and videocassettes. In the sale of advertising time, the broadcasting operations compete with other television networks, independent television stations, suppliers of cable television programs and other advertising media such as newspapers, magazines and billboards. Substantial competition also exists for exclusive broadcasting rights for television programs such as Monday Night Football. The ABC Radio Networks likewise compete with other radio networks and radio programming services, independent radio stations and other advertising media.

The Company's television and radio stations are in competition with other television and radio stations, cable television systems, satellite television program services, videocassettes and other advertising media such as newspapers, magazines and billboards. Such competition occurs primarily in individual market areas. A television station in one market does not compete directly with other stations in other market areas.

FEDERAL REGULATION
Television and radio broadcasting are subject to the jurisdiction of the FCC under the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the "Communications Act"). The Communications Act empowers the FCC, among other things, to issue, revoke or modify broadcasting licenses, determine the location of stations, regulate the equipment used by stations, adopt such regulations as may be necessary to carry out the provisions of the Communications Act and impose certain penalties for violation of its regulations.

FCC regulations also restrict the ownership of stations and cable operations in certain circumstances, and regulate the practices of network broadcasters, cable providers and competing services. Such laws and regulations are subject to change, and the Company generally cannot predict whether new legislation or regulations, or a change in the extent of application or enforcement of current laws and regulations, would have an adverse impact on the Company's operations.

RENEWALS
Broadcasting licenses are granted for a maximum period of eight years, and are renewable upon application therefor if the Commission finds that the public interest would be served thereby. During certain periods when a renewal application is pending, other parties may file petitions to deny the application for renewal of a license. Renewal applications are now pending for WLS-TV, KABC, KTZN, KGO, KSFO, KLOS (FM) and WXCD (FM). All of the Company's other owned stations have been granted license renewals by the FCC for maximum terms.

The Company operates the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida and the Disneyland Park and two hotels in California. The Company also earns royalties on revenues generated by the Tokyo Disneyland(R) theme park and has an ownership interest in Disneyland Paris.

WALT DISNEY WORLD RESORT
The Walt Disney World Resort is located on approximately 30,500 acres of land owned by Company subsidiaries 15 miles southwest of Orlando, Florida.

The Company markets the entire Walt Disney World destination resort through a variety of national, international and local advertising and promotional activities. The Walt Disney World Resort began a 15-month-long celebration of its 25th Anniversary in October 1996 with a series of promotional and special events. A number of attractions in each of the theme parks are sponsored by corporate participants through long-term participation agreements.

MAGIC KINGDOM - The Magic Kingdom, which opened in 1971, consists of seven principal areas: Main Street U.S.A., Liberty Square, Frontierland, New Tomorrowland, Fantasyland, Adventureland and Mickey's Toontown Fair. These areas feature themed rides and attractions, restaurants, refreshment stands and merchandise shops.

EPCOT - Epcot, which opened in 1982, consists of two major themed areas:
Future World and World Showcase. Future World dramatizes certain historical developments and addresses the challenges facing the world today through major pavilions devoted to high-tech products of the future ("Innoventions"), communication and technological exhibitions ("Spaceship Earth"), and energy, transportation, imagination, life and health, the land and seas. World Showcase presents a community of nations focusing on the culture, traditions and accomplishments of people around the world. World Showcase includes as a central showpiece the American Adventure pavilion, which highlights the history of the American people. Other nations represented are Canada, China, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Morocco, Norway and the United Kingdom. Both areas feature themed rides and attractions, restaurants and merchandise shops.

DISNEY-MGM STUDIOS - The Disney-MGM Studios, which opened in 1989, consists of a theme park, an animation studio and a film and television production facility. The park centers around Hollywood as it was during the 1930's and 1940's and features Disney animators at work and a backstage tour of the film and television production facilities in addition to themed food service and merchandise facilities and other attractions. The production facility consists of three sound stages, merchandise shops and a back lot area and currently hosts both feature film and television productions.

RESORT FACILITIES - As of September 30, 1997, the Company owned and operated 13 resort hotels and a complex of villas and suites at the Walt Disney World Resort, with a total of approximately 16,700 rooms and 318,000 square feet of conference meeting space. Included among the resort hotels is Disney's Coronado Springs Resort, a 1,967 room moderately priced hotel and convention center themed around Mexico and the American Southwest, which opened in August 1997. Currently under development is phase three of Disney's All-Star Resorts with an additional 1,920 rooms expected to be completed in 1999. In addition, Disney's Fort Wilderness camping and recreational area offers approximately 1,200 campsites and wilderness homes. The resort also offers professional development and personal enrichment programs at The Disney Institute.

Recreational activities available at the resort facilities include five championship golf courses, miniature golf courses, full-service spas, an animal sanctuary, tennis, sailing, water skiing, swimming, horseback riding and a number of other noncompetitive sports and leisure time activities. The resort also operates three water parks: Blizzard Beach, River Country and Typhoon Lagoon.

The Company has also developed a 120-acre shopping facility and entertainment complex known as Downtown Disney, which consists of the Disney Village Marketplace, Pleasure Island and The West Side. In addition to more than 20 specialty retail shops and restaurants, the Disney Village Marketplace is home to the 50,000-square-foot World of Disney, which opened in October 1996 and is the largest Disney retail outlet. Pleasure Island, an entertainment center adjacent to the Disney Village Marketplace, includes restaurants, night clubs and shopping facilities. The West Side, with phased- in openings that began in fall 1997, is situated on 66 acres on the west side of Pleasure Island and includes several third-party operations, including the House of Blues, a New Orleans-style restaurant and live entertainment facility; Wolfgang Puck's Cafe, a California cuisine restaurant; Virgin Records Megastore, a music, video and book showplace; Cirque du Soleil, a high energy acrobatics and modern dance show; Bongos Cuban Cafe, a cafe/night club; and an AMC theater complex, the largest theater complex in Florida.

The recently opened Disney's Wide World of Sports is an international sports complex providing professional caliber training and competition, festival and tournament events and interactive sports activities. The complex's venues accommodate more than 30 different sporting events, including baseball, basketball, softball, track and field, football and soccer. Its 7,500-seat stadium will be the spring training site for the Atlanta Braves. In addition, the Harlem Globetrotters use the facility for their official training site and holiday-season 12-game series. The Amateur Athletic Union hosts more than 30 events a year at the facility and guests are able to enjoy various retail stores and food outlets.

Currently under development are Celebration, a 4,900-acre town, and Disney Cruise Line, a cruise vacation line that will include two 85,000-ton ships-- Disney Magic and Disney Wonder. The maiden voyage of Disney Magic is scheduled for spring 1998. Both ships will cater to children, families and adults, with distinctly themed areas for each group, and will feature 875 staterooms which offer 25% more living space than the current cruise line industry average. Disney Wonder is expected to enter service at the end of calendar 1998. Each cruise vacation will include a visit to Disney's Castaway Cay, a 1,000-acre private Bahamian island in the Abacos. The Company plans to package cruise vacations with visits to the Walt Disney World Resort.

At the Disney Village Marketplace Hotel Plaza, seven independently operated hotels are situated on property leased from the Company. These hotels have a capacity of approximately 3,700 rooms. Additionally, two hotels--the Walt Disney World Swan and the Walt Disney World Dolphin, with an aggregate capacity of approximately 2,300 rooms--are independently operated on property leased from the Company near Epcot.

These areas feature themed rides and attractions, restaurants, refreshment stands and merchandise shops. A number of the Disneyland attractions are sponsored by corporate participants. The Company markets Disneyland through international, national and local advertising and promotional activities. The Company also owns and operates the 1,100-room Disneyland Hotel and the 500-room Disneyland Pacific Hotel near Disneyland.

During 1997, the Company began the renovation of Tomorrowland, which is scheduled to reopen with new rides and attractions in the spring of 1998.

The Company has begun construction on a new theme park, Disney's California Adventure, projected to open in the year 2001. The new theme park will be constructed on property adjacent to the park. Disney's California Adventure will celebrate the many attributes of the state of California and will feature Disneyland Center, a themed complex of shopping, dining and entertainment venues; the Grand Californian, a deluxe 750-room hotel located inside the park; and an assortment of California-themed areas with associated rides and attractions.

DISNEY VACATION CLUB
In 1995, the Company completed the 497-unit Disney Old Key West Resort at the Walt Disney World Resort. In addition, 175 units in Vero Beach, Florida opened in October 1995, and 102 units on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina and 383 villas located at Disney's BoardWalk Resort opened in 1996. Available units at each facility are intended to be sold under a vacation ownership plan and operated partially as rental property until the units are sold.

DISNEY REGIONAL ENTERTAINMENT
The Company is developing a variety of new entertainment concepts to be located in metropolitan and suburban locations in the United States and around the world. These businesses may include sports concepts, interactive entertainment venues, family play centers and other operations that are based on Disney brands and creative properties.

In February 1997, the Company opened its first Club Disney, a 25,000-square- foot community playsite oriented toward creative activities for children and their grownups. Club Disney offers an array of diverse environments designed to entertain and educate, as well as a cafe, unique retail merchandise and themed birthday party rooms. Additional Club Disney openings are planned in various suburban markets.

The Company is also developing The ESPN Zone, a sports-themed dining and entertainment venue. The first facility is expected to open in the summer of 1998 in Baltimore, Maryland.

Also expected to open in the summer of 1998 is the Company's first DisneyQuest, an indoor entertainment venue for guests of all ages. DisneyQuest combines the magic of Disney with interactive technologies and classic story- telling in four distinct environments, as well as retail merchandise and food areas. The initial facility will be at the Walt Disney World Resort's Downtown Disney complex.

TOKYO DISNEYLAND
The Company earns royalties on revenues generated by the Tokyo Disneyland theme park, which is owned and operated by Oriental Land Co., Ltd. (OLC), an unrelated Japanese corporation. The park, which opened in 1983, is similar in size and concept to Disneyland and is located approximately six miles from downtown Tokyo, Japan.

In November 1997, OLC announced its intent to proceed with the construction of a second theme park designed by the Company, which will be called Tokyo DisneySea, together with a 500-room Disney-branded hotel and monorail system. Tokyo DisneySea is scheduled to open in fall 2001.

OLC is also in the preliminary stages of developing a retail, dining and entertainment complex adjacent to Tokyo Disneyland in what is known as the Maihama Station Area, which will include a 500-room Disney-branded hotel owned and operated by OLC under license from a Company subsidiary.

Construction costs on the development projects are being borne by OLC, which is also reimbursing the Company for its design, technical and operational assistance costs. Under the Company's agreements with OLC, the Company will be entitled to royalties from Tokyo DisneySea and the new hotels.

DISNEYLAND PARIS
Disneyland Paris is located on a 4,800-acre site at Marne-la-Vallee, approximately 20 miles east of Paris, France. The theme park, which opened in April 1992, features 42 attractions in its five themed lands. Seven themed hotels, with a total of approximately 5,800 rooms, are part of the resort complex, together with an entertainment center offering a variety of retail, dining and show facilities. The project has been developed pursuant to a 1987 master agreement with French governmental authorities by Euro Disney S.C.A., a publicly held French company in which the Company holds a 39% equity interest and which is managed by a subsidiary of the Company. The financial results of the Company's investment in Euro Disney are reported under the heading "Corporate activities and other" in the Company's consolidated statements of income.

WALT DISNEY IMAGINEERING
Walt Disney Imagineering provides master planning, real estate development, attraction and show design, engineering support, production support, project management and other development services for the Company's operations.

ANAHEIM SPORTS, INC.
The Company owns and operates a National Hockey League franchise, the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim. In addition, the Company manages the Anaheim Angels Major League Baseball team, owning a 25% general partnership interest, with an option to purchase the entire team at a later date.

COMPETITIVE POSITION
All of the theme parks and most of the associated resort facilities are operated on a year-round basis. Historically, the theme parks and resorts business experiences fluctuations in park attendance and resort occupancy resulting from the nature of vacation travel. Peak attendance and resort occupancy generally occur during the summer months when school vacations occur and during early-winter and spring holiday periods.

The Company's theme parks and resorts compete with all other forms of entertainment, lodging, tourism and recreational activities. The profitability of the leisure-time industry is influenced by various factors which are not directly controllable, such as economic conditions, amount of available leisure time, oil and transportation prices and weather patterns.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company, together with, in some instances, certain of its directors and officers, is a defendant or co-defendant in various legal actions involving copyright, breach of contract and various other claims incident to the conduct of its businesses. Management does not expect the Company to suffer any material liability by reason of such actions.

On January 3, 1997, two purported stockholders, Richard and David Kaplan, filed a putative derivative action in the Superior Court of the State of California, Los Angeles County (the "California Court"), alleging that certain current and former directors of the Company breached their fiduciary duties of loyalty and care and wasted corporate assets in connection with entering into and terminating the Company's employment agreement with its former president, Michael S. Ovitz. On January 7, 1997, two other purported stockholders, William and Geraldine Brehm, filed a substantially identical complaint in the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware, New Castle County (the "Delaware Court"), and another purported stockholder, Michael Grening, filed a similar complaint in the Delaware Court. On January 14, 1997, Mr. Grening, together with other purported stockholders Michelle De Benedictis, Peter Lawrence and Judith B. Wohl, filed a similar complaint in the California Court. On February 7, 1997, other purported stockholders, Thomas Malloy, Richard Kaser, Carol Kaser, Melvyn Zupnick, Michael Caesar, Robert S. Goldberg and Michael Shores, filed a similar claim in the California Court.

On May 28, 1997, all these claimants together filed an amended complaint in the Delaware Court, which names as defendants all of the Company's current directors, together with Mr. Ovitz and Stephen F. Bollenbach, the Company's former Chief Financial Officer and a former director. The complaint seeks, among other things, a declaratory judgment that Mr. Ovitz's employment agreement was void or, alternatively, that Mr. Ovitz's termination should be deemed a termination "for cause" and any severance payments to him forfeited , and compensatory or rescissory damages and injunctive and other equitable relief from the named defendants. It also seeks class action status to pursue a claim for damages and invalidation of the 1997 election of directors, based upon allegations of insufficient disclosures concerning, among other things, Mr. Ovitz's termination and Mr. Eisner's compensation.

The Company believes that the allegations in the complaint are without merit.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company acquired the operations of ABC, Inc. ("ABC") on February 9, 1996 and completed its final purchase price allocation and determination of the related intangible assets during the second quarter of 1997. To enhance comparability, certain information for 1996 and 1995 is presented on a "pro forma" basis, which assumes the ABC acquisition and the related final purchase price allocation occurred at the beginning of these periods. The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of the combined results that would have occurred had the acquisition actually occurred at the beginning of these periods.

The Company's 1997 results, prior-year pro forma amounts and as reported results since the date of the ABC acquisition reflect the impacts of the acquisition including the use of purchase accounting as well as significant increases in amortization of intangible assets, interest expense, the effective income tax rate and shares outstanding.

(2) The 1997 results include a $135 million gain from the sale of KCAL-TV. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The 1996 results include two non-recurring charges. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of, which resulted in the Company recognizing a $300 million non-cash charge. In addition, the Company recognized a $225 million charge for costs related to the acquisition of ABC. See Notes 2 and 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The following discussion of 1997 versus 1996 and 1996 versus 1995 performance is primarily based on pro forma results for 1996 and 1995. The Company believes pro forma results represent the best comparative standard for assessing net income, changes in net income and earnings trends, as the pro forma presentation combines a full year of the results of the Company and its acquired ABC operations. The discussion of consolidated results also includes "as reported" comparisons to the extent there have been material changes in reported amounts. The discussion of Theme Parks and Resorts segment results is on an as reported basis since the pro forma adjustments did not impact this segment.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

1997 VS. 1996
Compared to 1996 pro forma results, revenues increased 6% to $22.5 billion, reflecting growth in all business segments. Net income and earnings per share, excluding non-recurring items, increased 25% to $1.9 billion and $2.75, respectively. These results were driven by increased operating income across all business segments, partially offset by an increase in corporate activities and other driven by certain non-recurring items in both the current and prior year. The current year reflects settlements with former senior executives and the prior year reflects certain gains at ABC, primarily related to the sale of an investment in a cellular communications company.

The effective income tax rate compared to 1996 pro forma results decreased in 1997 primarily as a result of a reduction in the ratio of nondeductible amortization of intangible assets to total income before income taxes.

As reported revenues increased 20%, reflecting increases in all business segments and the impact of the acquisition of ABC. Net income, excluding the non-recurring items, increased 23% driven by increased operating income for each business segment. Earnings per share, excluding non-recurring items, increased 11%, reflecting net income growth, partially offset by the impact of additional shares issued in connection with the acquisition. Results for 1997 included a full period of ABC's operations.

1996 VS. 1995
Pro forma revenues increased 12% to $21.2 billion, reflecting growth in all business segments. Net income, excluding non-recurring charges, increased 16% to $1.5 billion, and earnings per share increased 15% to $2.20. These results were driven by increased operating income at the Theme Parks and Resorts and Broadcasting segments.

Pro forma net interest expense decreased 10% to $698 million reflecting lower interest rates and a reduction in net borrowings (the Company's borrowings less cash and liquid investments).

As reported revenues increased 54% to $18.7 billion, reflecting increases in all business segments and the impact of the acquisition of ABC. Net income, excluding the non-recurring charges, increased 11% to $1.5 billion driven by increased operating income for each business segment. Earnings per share, excluding the non-recurring charges, decreased 5% to $2.48, reflecting the impact of additional shares issued in connection with the acquisition.

As reported corporate activities and other increased 29% to $309 million, reflecting higher corporate general and administrative costs and a $55 million gain in 1995 related to the sale of a portion of the Company's investment in Euro Disney. Net interest expense increased to $438 million, reflecting new borrowings in connection with the acquisition, partially offset by lower interest rates.

BUSINESS SEGMENT RESULTS

CREATIVE CONTENT

1997 VS. 1996
Revenues increased 3% or $330 million compared with pro forma 1996 to $10.9 billion, driven by growth of $210 million in the Disney Stores, $143 million in character merchandise licensing, $104 million in television distribution and $88 million in home video, partially offset by declines in publishing revenues of $187 million. Growth at the Disney Stores reflected continued worldwide expansion with 106 new stores opening in 1997, bringing the total number of stores worldwide to 636. New stores contributed $109 million in revenues in the current year. Increases in character merchandise licensing reflected the strength of Winnie the Pooh and Toy Story domestically, and standard characters and 101 Dalmatians worldwide. The increase in television revenues was driven by an increase in the distribution of film and television product in the international television market. Home video results reflected the successful performance of Toy Story, The Hunchback of Notre Dame and 101 Dalmatians worldwide and Bambi and Sleeping Beauty domestically. The decline in publishing revenues related to the operations disposed of during the year.

Operating income increased 21% or $327 million compared with pro forma 1996 to $1.9 billion, reflecting improved results for theatrical distribution, character merchandise licensing and television distribution, partially offset by a reduction in home video results. Costs and expenses, which consist primarily of production cost amortization, distribution and selling expenses, product cost, labor and leasehold expense, were flat at $9.1 billion, reflecting increased amortization in the home video market and continued expansion of the Disney Stores, offset by a reduction in distribution costs in the domestic theatrical market, lower overall costs resulting from the disposition of certain publishing businesses during the year and the write-off of certain theatrical development projects in the prior year.

1996 VS. 1995
Pro forma revenues increased 17% or $1.5 billion to $10.6 billion, driven by growth of $500 million in home video, $274 million in theatrical, $197 million in the Disney Stores and $151 million in character merchandise licensing. Home video revenues reflected Pocahontas, Cinderella and The Aristocats animated titles and The Santa Clause, While You Were Sleeping and Crimson Tide live- action titles domestically, as well as The Lion King and the animated version of 101 Dalmatians internationally. Theatrical revenues reflected the worldwide box office performance of Toy Story, The Rock and The Hunchback of Notre Dame, the international performance of Pocahontas and the domestic performance of Phenomenon. Revenues growth at the Disney Stores was driven by the opening of 101 new stores in 1996, bringing the total number of stores to 530. Comparable store sales declined 2%, primarily due to the strength of The Lion King merchandise in 1995, and new stores contributed $103 million of sales growth. Merchandise licensing revenues increased due to the strength of standard characters worldwide and the success of targeted marketing programs. Television revenues from program distribution were comparable to 1995, reflecting the success of live-action titles in pay television, offset by the syndication sale of Home Improvement in 1995.

Pro forma operating income remained flat at $1.6 billion, reflecting improved results in home video and worldwide merchandise licensing offset by lower theatrical results. Costs and expenses increased 20% or $1.5 billion. The increase was primarily due to higher theatrical distribution and home video selling costs, higher production cost amortization, expansion of the Disney Stores and the write-off of certain theatrical development projects.

BROADCASTING

1997 VS. 1996
Revenues increased 6% or $393 million compared with pro forma 1996 to $6.5 billion, driven by increases of $336 million at ESPN and The Disney Channel, and $74 million at the television network. The increases at ESPN and The Disney Channel were due primarily to higher advertising revenues

-18-

and affiliate fees due primarily to expansion, subscriber growth and improved advertising rates. Growth in revenues at the television network was primarily the result of improved performance of sports, news and latenight programming, partially offset by a decline in prime time ratings.

Operating income increased 18% or $194 million compared with pro forma 1996 to $1.3 billion, reflecting increases in revenues at ESPN and The Disney Channel, as well as improved results at the television stations, partially offset by decreases at the television network. Results at the television network reflected the impact of lower ratings, partially offset by benefits arising from current period sporting events, improvements in children's programming, continued strength in the advertising market and decreased program amortization. Costs and expenses increased 4% or $199 million. This increase reflected increased programming rights and production costs, driven by international growth at ESPN and increases at the television network, partially offset by benefits arising from reductions in program amortization and other costs at the television network, primarily attributable to the acquisition.

The Company has continued to invest in its existing cable television networks and in new cable ventures to diversify and expand the available distribution channels for acquired and Company programming. During 1997, the Company acquired an equity stake in E! Entertainment Television, an entertainment-related network, invested in a number of international cable ventures and continued its worldwide expansion of The Disney Channel with launches in France and the Middle East. During the first quarter of 1998, the Company acquired the Classic Sports Network, a cable network devoted to memorable sporting events.

The Company's cable operations continue to provide strong earnings growth. The Company's results for 1997 reflect an increase in income before income taxes of $182 million or 28% for mature cable properties compared with pro forma 1996 results, which include the Company's share of earnings from ESPN, The Disney Channel, A&E Television and Lifetime Television. These increases were partially offset by the Company's recognition of its proportionate share of losses associated with start-up cable ventures. Start-up cable ventures are generally operations that are in the process of establishing distribution channels and a subscriber base and that have not reached their full level of normalized operations. These include various ESPN and Disney Channel start-up cable ventures. Overall, the Company's cable results increased 29% compared with pro forma 1996.

The financial results of ESPN and The Disney Channel are included in Broadcasting operating income. The Company's share of all other cable operations and the ESPN minority interest deduction are reported in "Corporate activities and other" in the consolidated statements of income.

1996 VS. 1995
Pro forma revenues increased 5% or $267 million to $6.1 billion, reflecting a $309 million increase in revenues at ESPN and The Disney Channel, resulting from higher advertising revenues and affiliate fees due primarily to expansion, subscriber growth and improved advertising rates. Increases in revenues were partially offset by a $61 million decrease at the television network and stations due to the impact of ratings deterioration and the absence of the Super Bowl in 1996.

Pro forma operating income increased 12% or $118 million to $1.1 billion, reflecting decreased costs and expenses at the television network, increased revenues at ESPN and The Disney Channel and lower program write-offs at KCAL. Costs and expenses increased 3% or $149 million, reflecting increased program rights and production costs driven by growth at ESPN and The Disney Channel internationally, partially offset by significantly decreased program amortization at the television network, primarily attributable to the acquisition, and lower program write-offs at KCAL.

-19-

THEME PARKS AND RESORTS

1997 VS. 1996
Revenues increased 11% or $512 million to $5.0 billion, reflecting growth at the Walt Disney World Resort, which celebrated its 25th Anniversary. Growth at the resort included $272 million from greater guest spending, $111 million from increased occupied rooms and $97 million due to record theme park attendance. Higher guest spending reflected increased merchandise and food and beverage sales, higher admission prices and increased room rates at hotel properties. Increased merchandise spending reflected sales of the 25th Anniversary products and the performance of the World of Disney, the largest Disney retail outlet, which opened in October 1996. The increase in occupied rooms reflected higher occupancy and a complete year of operations at Disney's BoardWalk Resort, which opened in the fourth quarter of 1996. Occupied rooms also increased due to the opening of Disney's Coronado Springs Resort in August 1997. Record theme park attendance resulted from growth in domestic tourist visitation. Disneyland's revenues for the year were flat due to higher guest spending offset by reduced attendance from the prior-year's record level.

Operating income increased 15% or $146 million to $1.1 billion, resulting primarily from higher guest spending, increased occupied rooms and record theme park attendance at the Walt Disney World Resort. Costs and expenses, which consist principally of labor, costs of merchandise, food and beverages sold, depreciation, repairs and maintenance, entertainment and marketing and sales expenses, increased 10% or $366 million. Increased operating costs were associated with growth in theme park attendance and occupied rooms, higher guest spending and increased marketing and sales expenses primarily associated with Walt Disney World Resort's 25th Anniversary celebration. Additional cost increases resulted from theme park and resort expansions including Disney's Animal Kingdom and Disney Cruise Line, which will begin operations in 1998.

1996 VS. 1995
Revenues increased 13% or $501 million to $4.5 billion, reflecting growth of $191 million due to record theme park attendance, $148 million from greater guest spending, and $52 million due to increased occupied rooms, primarily at the Walt Disney World Resort. Record theme park attendance at both the Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Park in 1996 reflected growth in domestic and international tourist visitation. Increased guest spending resulted from higher admission prices, increased sales of food and beverages due to pricing and expanded locations, and higher room rates at hotel and resort properties. The increase in occupied rooms at the Walt Disney World Resort resulted from higher occupancy and a complete year of operations at Disney's All-Star Music Resort, which opened in phases during 1995. Occupied rooms also increased due to the opening of Disney's BoardWalk Resort in the fourth quarter of 1996.

Operating income increased 15% or $131 million to $990 million, resulting primarily from higher theme park attendance, increased guest spending and increased occupied rooms at the Walt Disney World Resort. Costs and expenses increased 12% or $370 million, primarily due to increased operating hours in response to higher attendance, expansion of theme park attractions and resorts, increased marketing and sales expenses and increased costs associated with higher guest spending and increased occupied rooms.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company generates significant cash from operations and has substantial borrowing capacity to meet its operating and discretionary spending requirements. Cash provided by operations increased 53% or $2.4 billion to $7.1 billion in 1997, which includes a full-year's impact of ABC's operations.

In 1997, the Company invested $5.1 billion to develop, produce and acquire rights to film and television properties and $1.9 billion to design and develop new theme park attractions, resort properties, real estate developments and other properties. 1996 investments totaled $3.7 billion and $1.7 billion, respectively.

-20-

The $1.4 billion increase in investment in film and television properties was primarily driven by a full year of ABC's television spending.

The $177 million increase in investment in theme parks, resorts and other properties resulted primarily from initiatives including Disney's Animal Kingdom, Disney's Coronado Springs Resort and Disney's California Adventure. Capital spending is expected to increase in 1998 from continued spending at Disney's Animal Kingdom as well as increases related to Disney Cruise Line, Disney's California Adventure, Disney Regional Entertainment and phase three of the Disney All-Star Resort at Walt Disney World.

The Company acquires shares of its stock on an ongoing basis and is authorized as of September 30, 1997 to purchase up to an additional 88 million shares. During 1997, a subsidiary of the Company acquired 8 million shares of the Company's common stock for $633 million. The Company also used $342 million to fund dividend payments during the year.

Since the acquisition of ABC, the Company has reduced its total borrowings and replaced a substantial portion of its commercial paper with longer-term financing. During 1997, total borrowings decreased $1.3 billion to $11.1 billion. The Company borrowed approximately $1.2 billion in 1997 with effective interest rates ranging from 4.4% to 5.9% and maturities in fiscal 1999 through fiscal 2057. Certain of these financing agreements are denominated in foreign currencies for which the Company has entered into cross-currency swap agreements effectively converting these obligations into U.S. dollar denominated LIBOR-based variable rate debt instruments. The Company also established two real estate investment trusts (REITs) and issued equity interests in the REITs to third-party investors in exchange for $1.3 billion. During the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company dissolved one of the REITs and repaid investors $468 million. During the second quarter of 1997, the Company issued approximately $1.2 billion in debt secured by certain assets of its newspaper operations. The secured debt has an interest rate based on one-month LIBOR and a maturity date of September 15, 1999. During the third quarter, $990 million of this debt was assumed by Knight-Ridder, Inc. in connection with the disposition of certain of the Company's newspaper operations. The Company has the capacity to issue up to $2.0 billion in additional debt under a U.S. shelf registration filed in March 1996, and $936 million under a European medium-term note program established in June 1996.

The Company's financial condition remains strong. The Company believes that its cash, other liquid assets, operating cash flows and access to capital markets, taken together, provide adequate resources to fund ongoing operating requirements and future capital expenditures related to the expansion of existing businesses and development of new projects.

MARKET RISK

The Company is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes, foreign currency fluctuations and changes in the market value of its investments.

POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
In the normal course of business, the Company employs established policies and procedures to manage its exposure to changes in interest rates and fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies using a variety of financial instruments.

The Company's objective in managing its exposure to interest rate changes is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower its overall borrowing costs. To achieve its objectives, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps to manage net exposure to interest rate changes related to its portfolio of borrowings. The Company maintains fixed rate debt as a percentage of its net debt between a minimum and maximum percentage, which is set by policy.

The Company's objective in managing the exposure to foreign currency fluctuations is to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility associated with foreign exchange rate changes to allow management

-21-

to focus its attention on its core business issues and challenges. Accordingly, the Company enters into various contracts which change in value as foreign exchange rates change to protect the value of its existing foreign currency assets, liabilities, commitments and anticipated foreign currency revenues. The Company uses option strategies which provide for the sale of foreign currencies to hedge probable, but not firmly committed, revenues. The principal currencies hedged are the Japanese yen, French franc, German mark, British pound, Canadian dollar, Italian lira and Spanish peseta. By policy, the Company maintains hedge coverage between minimum and maximum percentages of its anticipated foreign exchange exposures for each of the next five years. The gains and losses on these contracts offset changes in the value of the related exposures.

It is the Company's policy to enter into foreign currency and interest rate transactions only to the extent considered necessary to meet its objectives as stated above. The Company does not enter into foreign currency or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes.

VALUE AT RISK
The Company utilizes a "Value-at-Risk" (VAR) model to determine the maximum potential one-day loss in the fair value of its interest rate and foreign exchange sensitive financial instruments. The VAR model estimates were made assuming normal market conditions and a 95% confidence level. There are various modeling techniques which can be used in the VAR computation. The Company's computations are based on the interrelationships between movements in various currencies and interest rates (a "variance/co-variance" technique). These interrelationships were determined by observing interest rate and foreign currency market changes over the preceding quarter for the calculation of VAR amounts at yearend and over each of the four quarters for the calculation of average VAR amounts during the year. The model includes all of the Company's debt as well as all interest rate and foreign exchange derivatives contracts. The value of foreign exchange options do not change on a one-to-one basis with the underlying currency, as exchange rates vary. Therefore, the hedge coverage assumed to be obtained from each option has been adjusted to reflect its respective sensitivity to changes in currency values. Anticipated transactions, firm commitments and receivables and accounts payable denominated in foreign currencies, which certain of these instruments are intended to hedge, were excluded from the model.

The VAR model is a risk analysis tool and does not purport to represent actual losses in fair value that will be incurred by the Company, nor does it consider the potential effect of favorable changes in market factors. (See Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements regarding the Company's financial instruments at September 30, 1997 and 1996).

The estimated maximum potential one-day loss in fair value, calculated using the VAR model, follows (in millions):

                                 Interest Rate         Currency
                              Sensitive Financial Sensitive Financial Combined
                                  Instruments         Instruments     Portfolio
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VAR as of September 30, 1997          $27                 $24            $33
Average VAR during the year            31                  22             34
 ended September 30, 1997

Since the Company utilizes currency sensitive derivative instruments for hedging anticipated foreign currency transactions, a loss in fair value for those instruments is generally offset by increases in the value of the underlying anticipated transactions.

OTHER MATTERS

The Company is currently working to resolve the potential impact of the year 2000 on the processing of date-sensitive information by the Company's computerized information systems. The year 2000 problem is the result of computer programs being written using two digits (rather than four) to define the applicable year. Any of the Company's programs that have time-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000, which could result in miscalculations or system failures. Based on preliminary information, costs of addressing potential problems are not currently expected to have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows in future periods. However, if the Company, its customers or vendors are unable to resolve such processing issues in a timely manner, it could result in a material financial risk. Accordingly, the Company plans to devote the necessary resources to resolve all significant year 2000 issues in a timely manner.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of The Walt Disney Company

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The Walt Disney Company and its subsidiaries (the "Company") at September 30, 1997 and 1996, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company adopted the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standard Board's Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long- Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of," in fiscal 1996.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Tabular dollars in millions, except per share amounts)

1 Description of the Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Walt Disney Company, together with its subsidiaries (the "Company"), is a diversified international entertainment organization with operations in the following businesses.

CREATIVE CONTENT
The Company produces and acquires live-action and animated motion pictures for distribution to the theatrical, home video and television markets. The Company also produces original television programming for the network and first-run syndication markets. The Company distributes its filmed product through its own distribution and marketing companies in the United States and most foreign markets.

The Company licenses the name "Walt Disney," as well as the Company's characters, visual and literary properties and songs and music, to various consumer manufacturers, retailers, show promoters and publishers throughout the world. The Company also engages in direct retail distribution principally through the Disney Stores, and produces books and magazines for the general public in the United States and Europe. In addition, the Company produces audio products for all markets, as well as film, video and computer software products for the educational marketplace.

BROADCASTING
The Company operates the ABC Television Network which has affiliated stations providing coverage to U.S. television households. The Company also owns television and radio stations, most of which are affiliated with the ABC Television Network and the ABC Radio Networks. The Company's cable and international broadcast operations are principally involved in the production and distribution of cable television programming, the licensing of programming to domestic and international markets and investing in joint ventures in foreign-based television operations and television production and distribution entities. The primary domestic cable programming services, which operate principally through joint ventures, are ESPN, the A&E Television Networks, Lifetime Television and E! Entertainment Television. The Company provides programming for and operates The Disney Channel, a cable and satellite television programming service.

THEME PARKS AND RESORTS
The Company operates the Walt Disney World Resort(R) in Florida, and Disneyland Park(R), the Disneyland Hotel and the Disneyland Pacific Hotel in California. The Walt Disney World Resort includes the Magic Kingdom, Epcot and the Disney-MGM Studios, thirteen resort hotels and a complex of villas and suites, a nighttime entertainment complex, a shopping village, conference centers, campgrounds, golf courses, water parks and other recreational facilities. The Company earns royalties on revenues generated by the Tokyo Disneyland(R) theme park near Tokyo, Japan, which is owned and operated by an unrelated Japanese corporation. The Company also has an investment in Euro Disney S.C.A. ("Euro Disney"), a publicly held French corporation that operates Disneyland Paris. The Company's Walt Disney Imagineering unit designs and develops new theme park concepts and attractions, as well as resort properties. The Company also manages and markets vacation ownership interests in the Disney Vacation Club. Included in Theme Parks and Resorts are the Company's National Hockey League franchise, the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim, and its ownership interest in the Anaheim Angels, a Major League Baseball team.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNT POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of The Walt Disney Company and its subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions.

-36-

Accounting Changes
During 1997, the Company adopted SFAS 123 Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation ("SFAS 123"), which requires disclosure of the fair value and other characteristics of stock options (see Note 9). The Company has chosen under the provisions of SFAS 123 to continue using the intrinsic-value method of accounting for employee stock-based compensation in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees ("APB 25").

During 1996, the Company adopted SFAS 121 Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of ("SFAS 121") (see Note 11).

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition
Revenues from the theatrical distribution of motion pictures are recognized when motion pictures are exhibited. Revenues from video sales are recognized on the date that video units are made widely available for sale by retailers. Revenues from the licensing of feature films and television programming are recorded when the material is available for telecasting by the licensee and when certain other conditions are met.

Broadcast advertising revenues are recognized when commercials are aired. Revenues from television subscription services related to the Company's primary cable programming services are recognized as services are provided.

Revenues from participants and sponsors at the theme parks are generally recorded over the period of the applicable agreements commencing with the opening of the related attraction.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and marketable securities with original maturities of three months or less.

Investments
Debt securities that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as "held-to-maturity" and reported at amortized cost. Debt securities not classified as held-to-maturity and marketable equity securities are classified as either "trading" or "available-for-sale," and are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings or stockholders' equity, respectively. All other equity securities are accounted for using either the cost method or the equity method. The Company's share of earnings or losses in its equity investments accounted for under the equity method is included in "Corporate activities and other" in the consolidated statements of income.

Inventories
Carrying amounts of merchandise, materials and supplies inventories are generally determined on a moving average cost basis and are stated at the lower of cost or market.

Film and Television Costs
Film and television production and participation costs are expensed based on the ratio of the current period's gross revenues to estimated total gross revenues from all sources on an individual production basis. Estimates of total gross revenues can change significantly due to the level of market acceptance of film and television products. Accordingly, revenue estimates are reviewed periodically

-37-

and amortization is adjusted. Such adjustments could have a material effect on results of operations in future periods.

Television broadcast program licenses and rights and related liabilities are recorded when the license period begins and the program is available for use. Television network and station rights for theatrical movies and other long- form programming are charged to expense primarily on accelerated bases related to the usage of the program. Television network series costs and multi-year sports rights are charged to expense based on the flow of anticipated revenue.

Theme Parks, Resorts and Other Property
Theme parks, resorts and other property are carried at cost. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method based upon estimated useful lives ranging from three to fifty years.

Intangible/Other Assets
Intangible assets are amortized over periods ranging from two to forty years. The Company continually reviews the recoverability of the carrying value of these assets using the methodology prescribed in SFAS 121. The Company also reviews long-lived assets and the related intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is determined by comparing the forecasted undiscounted net cash flows of the operation to which the assets relate, to the carrying amount including associated intangible assets of such operation. If the operation is determined to be unable to recover the carrying amount of its assets, then intangible assets are written down first, followed by the other long-lived assets of the operation, to fair value. Fair value is determined based on discounted cash flows or appraised values, depending upon the nature of the assets.

Risk Management Contracts
In the normal course of business, the Company employs a variety of off- balance-sheet financial instruments to manage its exposure to fluctuations in interest and foreign currency exchange rates, including interest rate and cross-currency swap agreements, forward, option, swaption and spreadlock contracts.

The Company designates and assigns the financial instruments as hedges for specific assets, liabilities or anticipated transactions. When hedged assets or liabilities are sold or extinguished or the anticipated transactions being hedged are no longer expected to occur, the Company recognizes the gain or loss on the designated hedging financial instruments.

The Company classifies its derivative financial instruments as held or issued for purposes other than trading. Option premiums and unrealized losses on forward contracts and the accrued differential for interest rate and cross- currency swaps to be received under the agreements are recorded in the balance sheet as other assets. Unrealized gains on forward contracts and the accrued differential for interest rate and cross-currency swaps to be paid under the agreements are included in accounts payable and other accrued liabilities. Gains and losses from hedges are classified in the income statement consistent with the accounting treatment of the items being hedged. Cash flows from hedges are classified in the statement of cash flows under the same category as the cash flows from the related assets, liabilities or anticipated transactions.

The Company accrues the differential for interest rate and cross-currency swaps to be paid or received under the agreements as interest and exchange rates shift as adjustments to interest income or expense over the life of the swaps. Gains and losses on the termination of swap agreements, prior to their original maturity, are deferred and amortized over the remaining term of the underlying hedged transactions.

Gains and losses arising from foreign currency forward and option contracts are recognized as offsets of gains and losses resulting from the items being hedged.

Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share amounts are based upon the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the year. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation in periods in which they have an anti-dilutive effect.

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS 128 Earnings per Share ("SFAS 128"), which specifies the computation, presentation, and disclosure requirements for earnings per share ("EPS"). It replaces the presentation of primary and fully diluted EPS with basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS excludes all dilution. It is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. The Company will adopt SFAS 128 as of the first quarter of fiscal 1998 and restate all previously reported per share amounts to conform to the new presentation. (See Note 8 regarding the impact of SFAS 128 on the Company's reported EPS.)

Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made in the 1996 and 1995 financial statements to conform to the 1997 presentation including the reclassification of certain equity investments out of other assets into investments in the consolidated balance sheets.

2 Acquisition and Dispositions

On February 9, 1996, the Company completed its acquisition of ABC. The aggregate consideration paid to ABC shareholders consisted of $10.1 billion in cash and 155 million shares of Company common stock valued at $8.8 billion based on the stock price as of the date the transaction was announced.

The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase and the acquisition cost of $18.9 billion was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimates of their respective fair values. Assets acquired totaled $4.0 billion (of which $1.5 billion was cash) and liabilities assumed were $4.3 billion. A total of $19.0 billion, representing the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of ABC's net tangible assets, was allocated to intangible assets and is being amortized over forty years. The Company completed its final purchase price allocation and determination of related goodwill, deferred taxes and other accounts during the second quarter of 1997. At that time, the Company also reclassified certain provisions for acquired broadcast programming out of accrued liabilities into film and television costs in the consolidated balance sheets.

In connection with the acquisition, all common shares of the Company outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of the acquisition were canceled and replaced with new common shares and all treasury shares were canceled and retired.

The Company's consolidated results of operations have incorporated ABC's activity from the effective date of the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma information below presents combined results of operations as if the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the respective years presented. The unaudited pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations of the combined company had the acquisition occurred at the beginning of the years presented, nor is it necessarily indicative of future results.

(a) 1996 includes the impact of a $300 million non-cash charge related to the initial adoption of a new accounting standard (see Note 11). The charge reduced earnings per share by $0.27 for the year.

-39-

During the second quarter of 1996, the Company recognized a $225 million charge for costs related to the acquisition, which is not included in the above pro forma amounts. Acquisition-related costs consist principally of interest costs related to imputed interest for the period from the effective date of the acquisition until March 14, 1996, the date that cash and stock consideration was issued to ABC shareholders.

As a result of the ABC acquisition, the Company sold its independent Los Angeles television station KCAL during the first quarter of 1997 for $387 million, resulting in a gain of $135 million.

During the third and fourth quarters of 1997, the Company disposed of most of the publishing businesses acquired with ABC to various third parties for consideration approximating their carrying amount. Proceeds consisted of $1.2 billion in cash, $1.0 billion in debt assumption and preferred stock convertible to common stock with a market value of $660 million. Results of operations for the publishing businesses included in the Creative Content segment were as follows:

3 Investment in Euro Disney

Euro Disney operates the Disneyland Paris theme park and resort complex on a 4,800-acre site near Paris, France. The Company accounts for its 39% ownership interest in Euro Disney using the equity method of accounting. As of September 30, 1997, the Company's recorded investment in Euro Disney was $355 million. The quoted market value of the Company's Euro Disney shares at September 30, 1997 was approximately $415 million.

In connection with the financial restructuring of Euro Disney in 1994, Euro Disney Associes S.N.C. ("Disney SNC"), a wholly owned affiliate of the Company, entered into a lease arrangement with a noncancelable term of 12 years (the "Lease") related to substantially all of the Disneyland Paris theme park assets, and then entered into a 12-year sublease agreement (the "Sublease") with Euro Disney. Remaining lease rentals at September 30, 1997 of FF 9.1 billion ($1.6 billion) receivable from Euro Disney under the Sublease approximate the amounts payable by Disney SNC under the Lease. At the conclusion of the Sublease term, Euro Disney will have the option to assume Disney SNC's rights and obligations under the Lease. If Euro Disney does not exercise its option, Disney SNC may purchase the assets, continue to lease the assets or elect to terminate the Lease, in which case Disney SNC would make a termination payment to the lessor equal to 75% of the lessor's then outstanding debt related to the theme park assets, estimated to be $1.3 billion; Disney SNC could then sell or lease the assets on behalf of the lessor to satisfy the remaining debt, with any excess proceeds payable to Disney SNC.

Also as part of the restructuring, the Company agreed to arrange for the provision of a 10-year unsecured standby credit facility of approximately $185 million, upon request, bearing interest at PIBOR. As of September 30, 1997, Euro Disney had not requested the Company establish this facility. The Company also agreed, as long as any of the restructured debt is outstanding, to maintain ownership of at least 34% of the outstanding common stock of Euro Disney until June 1999, at least 25% for the subsequent five years and at least 16.67% for an additional term thereafter.

Euro Disney's consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in France ("French GAAP"). U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") differ in certain significant respects from French GAAP applied by Euro Disney, principally as they relate to accounting for leases and the calculation of interest expense relating to debt affected by Euro Disney's financial restructuring. The Company records its equity share of Euro Disney's operating results calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

7 Pension and Other Benefit Programs

The Company maintains pension plans and postretirement medical benefit plans covering most of its domestic employees not covered by union or industry-wide plans. Employees hired after January 1, 1994 are not eligible for the postretirement medical benefits. Pension benefits are generally based on years of service and/or compensation. The following chart summarizes the balance sheet impact, as well as the benefit obligations, assets, funded status and rate assumptions associated with the pension and postretirement medical benefit plans.

The annual increase in cost of postretirement benefits of 6.7% is assumed to decrease .3ppts per year until stabilizing at 5.5%. An increase in the assumed benefits cost trend of 1ppt for each year would increase the postretirement benefit obligation at September 30, 1997 by $51 million.

The Company's accumulated pension benefit obligation at September 30, 1997 was $1.3 billion, of which 97.8% was vested. The accumulated postretirement benefit obligation for all plans at September 30, 1997 comprised 48% retirees, 18% fully eligible active participants and 34% other active participants.

The income statement cost of the pension plans for 1997, 1996 and 1995 totaled $45 million, $58 million and $33 million, respectively. The income statement credit for the postretirement benefit plans for the same years was $18 million, $16 million and $43 million, respectively. The discount rate, salary increase rate, rate of return on plans' assets and annual increase in cost of benefits were 7.5%, 5.8%, 9.5%, and 7.0%, respectively, in 1995.

8 Stockholders' Equity

The Company has historically attempted to increase the long-term value of its shares by the acquisition of its stock. As of September 30, 1997, the Company's share repurchase program authorized the purchase of up to 88 million shares. In December 1996, the Company established the TWDC Stock Compensation Fund pursuant to the repurchase program to acquire shares of the Company for the purpose of funding certain stock-based compensation. Any shares acquired by the fund that are not utilized must be disposed of by December 31, 1999.

In the first quarter of 1998, the Company will adopt the provisions of SFAS 128, which will require the presentation of diluted and basic EPS. Early adoption of SFAS 128 is not permitted. Diluted EPS under the new standard does not differ from the Company's current EPS. If SFAS 128 had been adopted for the periods presented, the basic EPS amounts would have been $2.92, $1.98 and $2.65 for 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

The Company has a stockholder's rights plan, which becomes operative in certain events involving the acquisition of 25% or more of the Company's common stock by any person or group in a transaction not approved by the Company's Board of Directors. Upon the occurrence of such an event, each right, unless redeemed by the Board, entitles its holder to purchase for $350 an amount of common stock of the Company, or in certain circumstances the acquirer, having a $700 market value. In connection with the rights plan, 7 million shares of preferred stock were reserved.

9 Stock Incentive Plans

Under various plans, the Company may grant stock options and other awards to key executive, management and creative personnel at exercise prices equal to or exceeding the market price at the date of grant. In general, options become exercisable over a five-year period from the grant date and expire 10 years after the date of grant. In certain cases for senior executives, options become exercisable over periods up to 10 years and expire up to 15 years after date of grant. Shares available for future option grants at September 30, 1997, totaled 45 million.

During fiscal year 1997, the Company adopted SFAS 123 and under the provisions of the new standard has elected to continue using the intrinsic- value method of accounting for stock-based awards granted to employees in accordance with APB 25. Accordingly, the Company has not recognized compensation expense for its stock-based awards to employees. The following table reflects pro forma net income and earnings per share had the Company elected to adopt the fair value approach of SFAS 123:

                      1997   1996
                     ------ ------
Net income:
  As reported        $1,966 $1,214
  Pro forma           1,870  1,185
Earnings per share:
  As reported          2.86   1.96
  Pro forma            2.73   1.91

These pro forma amounts may not be representative of future disclosures since the estimated fair value of stock options is amortized to expense over the vesting period, and additional options may be granted in future years.

The weighted average fair values of options at their grant date during 1997 and 1996, where the exercise price equals the market price on the grant date, were $27.26 and $23.01, respectively. The weighted average fair value of options at their grant date during 1996, where the exercise price exceeds the market price on the grant date, was $18.61. No such options were granted during 1997. The estimated fair value of each option granted is calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following summarizes the weighted average of the assumptions used in the model:

                               1997  1996
                               ----  ----

During the second quarter of 1996, the Company implemented SFAS 121. This new accounting standard changes the method that companies use to evaluate the carrying value of such assets by, among other things, requiring companies to evaluate assets at the lowest level at which identifiable cash flows can be determined. The implementation of SFAS 121 resulted in the Company recognizing a $300 million non-cash charge related principally to certain assets included in the Theme Parks and Resorts segment.

12 Financial Instruments

Investments
As of September 30, 1997 and 1996, the Company held $137 million and $104 million, respectively, of securities classified as available-for-sale. In 1997 and 1996, realized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, determined principally on an average cost basis, and unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities were not material.

Interest Rate Risk Management
The Company is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes. The Company's objective is to manage the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and on the market value of its investments and borrowings. The Company maintains fixed rate debt as a percentage of its net debt between a minimum and maximum percentage, which is set by policy.

The Company uses interest rate swaps and other instruments to manage net exposure to interest rate changes related to its borrowings and to lower its overall borrowing costs. Significant interest rate risk management instruments held by the Company at September 30, 1997 and 1996 included pay-floating and pay-fixed swaps and swaption contracts. Pay-fixed swaps effectively converted floating rate obligations to fixed rate instruments. Pay-floating swaps effectively converted medium-term obligations and senior participating notes to commercial paper or LIBOR-based variable rate instruments. These swap agreements expire in one to 15 years. Swaption contracts were designated as hedges of floating rate debt and expire within one year.

The impact of interest rate risk management activities on income in 1997 and 1996 and the amount of deferred gains and losses from interest rate risk management transactions at September 30, 1997 and 1996 were not material.

Foreign Exchange Risk Management
The Company transacts business in virtually every part of the world and is subject to risks associated with changing foreign exchange rates. The Company's objective is to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility associated with foreign exchange rate changes to allow management to focus its attention on its core business issues and challenges. Accordingly, the Company enters into various contracts which change in value as foreign exchange rates change to protect the value of its existing foreign currency assets and liabilities, commitments and anticipated foreign currency revenues. By policy, the Company maintains hedge coverage between minimum and maximum percentages of its anticipated foreign exchange exposures for each of the next five years. The gains and losses on these contracts offset changes in the value of the related exposures.

It is the Company's policy to enter into foreign currency transactions only to the extent considered necessary to meet its objectives as stated above. The Company does not enter into foreign currency transactions for speculative purposes.

The Company uses option strategies which provide for the sale of foreign currencies to hedge probable, but not firmly committed, revenues. While these hedging instruments are subject to fluctuations in value, such fluctuations are offset by changes in the value of the underlying exposures being hedged. The principal currencies hedged are the Japanese yen, French franc, German mark, British pound, Canadian dollar, Italian lira and Spanish peseta. The Company also uses forward contracts to hedge foreign currency assets, liabilities and foreign currency payments the Company is committed to make in connection with the construction of two cruise ships (see Note 13). Cross- currency swaps are used to hedge foreign currency-denominated borrowings.

-49-

At September 30, 1997 and 1996, the notional amounts of the Company's foreign exchange risk management contracts, net of notional amounts of contracts with counterparties against which the Company has a legal right of offset, the related exposures hedged and the contract maturities are as follows:

                                   1997                           1996

                       ======   ======                ======   ======

Gains and losses on contracts hedging anticipated foreign currency revenues and foreign currency commitments are deferred until such revenues are recognized or such commitments are met, and offset changes in the value of the foreign currency revenues and commitments. At September 30, 1997 and 1996, the Company had deferred gains of $486 million and $335 million, respectively, and deferred losses of $220 million and $307 million, respectively, related to foreign currency hedge transactions. Deferred amounts to be recognized can change with market conditions and will be substantially offset by changes in the value of the related hedged transactions. The impact of foreign exchange risk management activities on operating income in 1997 was a net gain of $166 million and in 1996 was not material.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
At September 30, 1997 and 1996, the Company's financial instruments included cash, cash equivalents, investments, receivables, accounts payable, borrowings and interest rate and foreign exchange risk management contracts.

At September 30, 1997 and 1996, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and commercial paper approximated carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The estimated fair values of other financial instruments subject to fair value disclosures, determined based on broker quotes or quoted market prices or rates for the same or similar instruments, and the related carrying amounts are as follows:

                                 1997                1996

Credit Concentrations
The Company continually monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions which are counterparties to its financial instruments and does not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties. The Company would not realize a material loss as of September 30, 1997 in the event of nonperformance by any one counterparty. The Company enters into transactions only with financial institution counterparties which have a credit rating of A- or better. The Company's current policy in agreements with financial institution counterparties is generally to require collateral in the event credit ratings fall below A- or in the event aggregate exposures exceed limits as defined by contract. In addition, the Company limits the amount of credit exposure with any one institution. At September 30, 1997, financial institution counterparties posted collateral of $210 million to the Company, and the Company was not required to collateralize its financial instrument obligations.

-50-

The Company's trade receivables and investments do not represent significant concentrations of credit risk at September 30, 1997, due to the wide variety of customers and markets into which the Company's products are sold, their dispersion across many geographic areas, and the diversification of the Company's portfolio among instruments and issuers.

13 Commitments and Contingencies

During 1995, the Company entered into agreements with a shipyard to build two cruise ships for its Disney Cruise Line. Under the agreements, the Company is committed to make payments totaling approximately $625 million through 1999.

At September 30, 1997, the Company is committed to the purchase of broadcast rights for various feature films, sports and other programming aggregating approximately $5.2 billion. This amount is substantially payable over the next six years.

The Company has various real estate operating leases including retail outlets for the distribution of consumer products and office space for general and administrative purposes. Future minimum lease payments under these non- cancelable operating leases totaled $1.8 billion at September 30, 1997, payable as follows:

1998        $229
1999         222
2000         209
2001         195
2002         179
Thereafter   741

Rental expense for the above operating leases, including overages, common- area maintenance and other contingent rentals, during 1997, 1996 and 1995 was $327 million, $233 million and $135 million, respectively.

The Company, together with, in some instances, certain of its directors and officers, is a defendant or co-defendant in various legal actions involving copyright, breach of contract and various other claims incident to the conduct of its businesses. Management does not expect the Company to suffer any material liability by reason of such actions, nor does it expect that such actions will have a material effect on the Company's liquidity or operating results.

Section 9. Inspectors of Election. Before any meeting of stockholders, the Board of Directors shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting and make a written report thereof. The Board of Directors may designate one or more persons as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If no inspector or alternate is able to act at a meeting of stockholders, the person presiding at the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of his duties, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of his ability.

The inspectors shall:

(a) ascertain the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each,

(b) determine the shares represented at the meeting and the validity of proxies and ballots,

Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at Annual Meetings of stockholders, and each director so elected shall hold office as provided by Article FIFTH of the Certificate of Incorporation. A director may be removed from office only as provided by Article SIXTH of the Certificate of Incorporation.

Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors of the Corporation at the Annual Meeting may be made at such meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, by any committee or persons appointed by the Board of Directors or by any stockholder of the Corporation entitled to vote for the election of directors at the meeting who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Article III, Section 2. Such nominations by any stockholder shall be made pursuant to timely notice in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation. To be timely, a stockholder's notice shall be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than 50 days nor more than 75 days prior to the meeting; provided, however, that in the event that less than 65 days' notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the meeting is given or made to stockholders, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the 15th day following the day on which such notice of the date of the meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was made, whichever first occurs. Such stockholder's notice to the Secretary shall set forth (i) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection as a director, (a) the name, age, business address and residence address of the person, (b) the principal occupation or employment of the person, (c) the class and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by the person, and (d) any other information relating to the person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations for proxies for election of directors pursuant to the Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; and (ii) as to the stockholder giving the notice (a) the name

-5-

and record address of the stockholder and (b) the class and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by the stockholder. The Corporation may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as may reasonably be required by the Corporation to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as a director of the Corporation. No person shall be eligible for election as a director of the Corporation unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth herein. The officer of the Corporation presiding at an Annual Meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a nomination was not made in accordance with the foregoing procedure, and if he should so determine, he shall so declare to the meeting and the defective nomination shall be disregarded.

Section 3. Vacancies. Any vacancy on the Board of Directors, howsoever resulting, may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director. Any director elected to fill a vacancy shall hold office for a term that shall coincide with the term of the class to which such director shall have been elected.

Section 4. Duties and Powers. The business of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors which may exercise all such powers of the Corporation and do all such lawful acts and things as are not by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these Bylaws directed or required to be exercised or done by the stockholders.

Section 5. Meetings. The Board of Directors of the Corporation may hold meetings, both regular and special, either within or without the State of Delaware. Regular meetings of the Board of Directors may be held without notice at such time and at such place as may from time to time be determined by the Board of Directors. Special meetings of the Board of Directors may be called by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the President, or by a majority of the Board of Directors. Notice thereof, stating the place, date and hour of the meeting, shall be given to each director either by mail not less than four days before the date of the meeting, or personally or by telephone, telegram, telex or similar means of communication on 12 hours notice, or on such shorter notice as the person or persons calling such meeting may deem necessary or appropriate in the circumstances.

Section 6. Quorum; Action of Board of Directors. Except as may be otherwise specifically provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, at all meetings of the Board of Directors, a majority of the entire Board of Directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business and the act of a majority of the directors present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the act of the Board of Directors. If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of the Board of Directors, the directors present thereat may adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present.

Section 7. Action by Written Consent. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors or of any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting, if all the members of the Board of Directors or committee, as the case may be, consent

thereto in writing, and the writing or writings are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board of Directors or committee.

Section 8. Meetings by Means of Conference Telephone. Members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, or any committee designated by the Board of Directors, may participate in a meeting of the Board of Directors or such committee by means of a conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in a meeting pursuant to this Section 8 shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

Section 9. Committees. The Board of Directors may, by resolution passed by a majority of the whole Board of Directors, designate one or more committees, each committee to consist of one or more of the directors of the Corporation. The Board of Directors may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of any such committee. In the absence or disqualification of a member of a committee, and in the absence of a designation by the Board of Directors of an alternate member to replace the absent or disqualified member, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not he or they constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board of Directors to act at the meeting in the place of any absent or disqualified member. Any committee, to the extent allowed by law and provided in the resolution establishing such committee, shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board of Directors in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation. The Board of Directors shall have the power to prescribe the manner in which proceedings of any such committee shall be conducted. In the absence of any such prescription, such committee shall have the power to prescribe the manner in which its proceedings shall be conducted. Unless the Board of Directors or such committee shall otherwise provide, regular and special meetings and other actions of any such committee shall be governed by the provisions of this Article III applicable to meetings and actions of the Board of Directors. Each committee shall keep regular minutes and report to the Board of Directors when required.

Section 10. Fees and Compensation. Directors and members of committees may receive such compensation, if any, for their services, and such reimbursement for expenses, as may be fixed or determined by the Board of Directors.

ARTICLE V

STOCK

Section 1. Form of Certificates. Every holder of stock in the Corporation shall be entitled to have a certificate signed, in the name of the Corporation (i) by the Chairman or Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors, the President or any Executive Vice President, Senior Vice President or Vice President and (ii) by the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer or the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Corporation, certifying the number of shares owned by him in the Corporation.

Section 2. Signatures. Where a certificate is countersigned by (i) a transfer agent or (ii) a registrar, any other signature on the certificate may be a facsimile. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate shall have ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if he were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue.

Section 3. Lost Certificates. The Board of Directors may direct a new certificate to be issued in place of any certificate theretofore issued by the Corporation alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming the certificate of stock to be lost, stolen or destroyed. When authorizing such issue of a new certificate, the Board of Directors may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, or his legal representative, to advertise the same in such manner as the Board of Directors shall require and/or to give the Corporation a bond in such sum as it may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Corporation with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

-10-

Section 4. Transfers. Transfers of shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be made only on the stock record of the Corporation by the holder of record thereof or by his attorney thereunto authorized by the power of attorney duly executed and filed with the Secretary of the Corporation or the transfer agent thereof, and only on surrender of the certificate or certificates representing such shares, properly endorsed or accompanied by a duly executed stock transfer power. The Board of Directors may make such additional rules and regulations as it may deem expedient concerning the issue and transfer of certificates representing shares of the capital stock of the Corporation.

Section 5. Record Date.

(a) In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock, or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a record date, which shall not be more than 60 days nor less than 10 days before the date of such meeting, nor more than 60 days prior to any other action. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 5(a) of Article V of these Bylaws, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall be as fixed by the Board of Directors or as otherwise established under this Section 5(b). Any person seeking to have the stockholders authorize or take corporate action by written consent without a meeting shall, by written notice addressed to the Secretary and delivered to the Corporation, request that a record date be fixed for such purpose. The Board of Directors may fix a record date for such purpose which shall be no more than 10 days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board and shall not precede the date such resolution is adopted. If the Board of Directors fails within 10 days after the Corporation receives such notice to fix a record date for such purpose, the record date shall be the day on which the first written consent is delivered to the Corporation in the manner described in Section 5(c) below unless prior action by the Board of Directors is required under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, in which event the record date shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

(c) Every written consent purporting to take or authorizing the taking of corporate action and/or related revocations (each such written consent and related revocation is referred to in this Section 5(c) of Article V of the Bylaws as a "Consent") shall bear the date of signature of each stockholder who signs the Consent, and no Consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein unless, within 60 days of the earliest dated Consent delivered in the manner required by this Section 5(c), Consents signed by a sufficient number of stockholders to take such action are so delivered to the Corporation.

-11-

A Consent shall be delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. Delivery to the Corporation's registered office shall be made by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.

In the event of the delivery to the Corporation of a Consent, the Secretary of the Corporation shall provide for the safe-keeping of such Consent and shall promptly conduct such ministerial review of the sufficiency of the Consents and of the validity of the action to be taken by stockholder consent as he deems necessary or appropriate, including, without limitation, whether the holders of a number of shares having the requisite voting power to authorize or take the action specified in the Consent have given consent; provided, however, that if the corporate action to which the Consent relates is the removal or replacement of one or more members of the Board of Directors, the Secretary of the Corporation shall promptly designate two persons, who shall not be members of the Board of Directors, to serve as inspectors with respect to such Consent and such inspectors shall discharge the functions of the Secretary of the Corporation under this Section 5(c). If after such investigation the Secretary or the inspectors (as the case may be) shall determine that the Consent is valid and that the action therein specified has been validly authorized, that fact shall forthwith be certified on the records of the Corporation kept for the purpose of recording the proceedings of meetings of stockholders, and the Consent shall be filed in such records, at which time the Consent shall become effective as stockholder action. In conducting the investigation required by this Section 5(c), the Secretary or the inspectors (as the case may be) may, at the expense of the Corporation, retain special legal counsel and any other necessary or appropriate professional advisors, and such other personnel as they may deem necessary or appropriate to assist them, and shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the opinion of such counsel or advisors.

Section 6. Beneficial Owners. The Corporation shall be entitled to recognize the exclusive right of a person registered on its books as the owner of shares to receive dividends, and to vote as such owner, and to hold liable for calls and assessments a person registered on its books as the owner of shares, and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or shares on the part of any other person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by law.

ARTICLE VI

Section 1. Notices. Whenever written notice is required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, to be given to any director or stockholder, such notice may be given by mail, addressed to such director or stockholder, at his address as it appears on the records of the Corporation, with postage thereon prepaid, and such notice shall be deemed to be given at the time when the same shall be deposited in the United States mail.

The Board of Directors may, by resolution, from time to time confer like powers upon any other person or persons.

ARTICLE VIII

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 1. General. The Corporation shall indemnify to the full extent authorized or permitted by law (as now or hereafter in effect) any person made, or threatened to be made, a defendant or witness to any action, suit or proceeding (whether civil or criminal or otherwise) by reason of the fact that he, his testator or intestate, is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or by reason of the fact that such director or officer, at the request of the Corporation, is or was serving any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, in any capacity. Nothing contained herein shall affect any rights

-13-

No amendment or repeal of this Section 1 shall apply to or have any effect on any right to indemnification provided hereunder with respect to any acts or omissions occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

(a) the Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of law; and

(b) the Corporation may create a trust fund, grant a security interest and/or use other means (including, without limitation, letters of credit, surety bonds and/or other similar arrangements), as well as enter into contracts providing indemnification to the full extent authorized or permitted by law and including as part thereof provisions with respect to any or all of the foregoing to ensure the payment of such amounts as may become necessary to effect indemnification as provided therein, or elsewhere.

EMERGENCY PROVISIONS

Section 1. General. The provisions of this Article X shall be operative only during a national emergency declared by the President of the United States or the person performing the President's functions, or in the event of a nuclear, atomic or other attack on the United States or a disaster making it impossible or impracticable for the Corporation to conduct its business without recourse to the provisions of this Article X. Said provisions in such event shall override all other Bylaws of the Corporation in conflict with any provisions of this Article X, and shall remain operative so long as it remains impossible or impracticable to continue the business of the Corporation otherwise, but thereafter shall be inoperative; provided that all actions taken in good faith pursuant to such provisions shall thereafter remain in full force and effect unless and until revoked by action taken pursuant to the provisions of the Bylaws other than those contained in this Article X.

Section 2. Unavailable Directors. All directors of the Corporation who are not available to perform their duties as directors by reason of physical or mental incapacity or for any other reason or who are unwilling to perform their duties or whose whereabouts are unknown shall automatically cease to be directors, with like effect as if such persons had resigned as directors, so long as such unavailability continues.

Section 3. Authorized Number of Directors. The authorized number of directors shall be the number of directors remaining after eliminating those who have ceased to be directors pursuant to Section 2 of this Article X, or the minimum number required by law, whichever number is greater.

Section 4. Quorum. The number of directors necessary to constitute a quorum shall be one-third of the authorized number of directors as specified in Section 3 of this Article X, or such other minimum number as, pursuant to the law or lawful decree then in force, it is possible for the Bylaws of a Corporation to specify.

Section 5. Creation of Emergency Committee. In the event the number of directors remaining after eliminating those who have ceased to be directors pursuant to Section 2 of this Article X is less than the minimum number of authorized directors required by law, then until the appointment of additional directors to make up such required minimum, all the powers and authorities which the Board of Directors could by law delegate including all powers and authorities which the Board of Directors could delegate to a committee, shall be automatically vested in an emergency committee, and the emergency committee shall thereafter manage the affairs of the Corporation pursuant to such powers and authorities and shall have all other powers and authorities as may by law or lawful decree be conferred on any person or body of persons during a period of emergency.

Section 6. Constitution of Emergency Committee. The emergency committee shall consist of all the directors remaining after eliminating those who have ceased to be directors

-15-

pursuant to Section 2 of this Article X, provided that such remaining directors are not less than three in number. In the event such remaining directors are less than three in number, the emergency committee shall consist of three persons, who shall be the remaining director or directors and either one or two officers or employees of the Corporation, as the remaining director or directors may in writing designate. If there is no remaining director, the emergency committee shall consist of the three most senior officers of the Corporation who are available to serve, and if and to the extent that officers are not available, the most senior employees of the Corporation. Seniority shall be determined in accordance with any designation of seniority in the minutes of the proceedings of the Board, and in the absence of such designation, shall be determined by rate of remuneration. In the event that there are no remaining directors and no officers or employees of the Corporation available, the emergency committee shall consist of three persons designated in writing by the stockholder owning the largest number of shares of record as of the date of the last record date.

Section 7. Powers of Emergency Committee. The emergency committee, once appointed, shall govern its own procedures and shall have power to increase the number of members thereof beyond the original number, and in the event of a vacancy or vacancies therein, arising at any time, the remaining member or members of the emergency committee shall have the power to fill such vacancy or vacancies. In the event at any time after its appointment all members of the emergency committee shall die or resign or become unavailable to act for any reason whatsoever, a new emergency committee shall be appointed in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Article X.

Section 8. Directors Becoming Available. Any person who has ceased to be a director pursuant to the provisions of Section 2 of this Article X and who thereafter becomes available to serve as a director shall automatically become a member of the emergency committee.

Section 9. Election of Board of Directors. The emergency committee shall, as soon after its appointment as is practicable, take all requisite action to secure the election of a board of directors, and upon such election all the powers and authorities of the emergency committee shall cease.

Section 10. Termination of Emergency Committee. In the event, after the appointment of an emergency committee, a sufficient number of persons who ceased to be directors pursuant to Section 2 of this Article X become available to serve as directors, so that if they had not ceased to be directors as aforesaid, there would be enough directors to constitute the minimum number of directors required by law, then all such persons shall automatically be deemed to be reappointed as directors and the powers and authorities of the emergency committee shall be at an end.

SECTION 3: DISNEY'S LIABILITIES

3.1 Limited Recourse Liability

The liability of Disney under this Agreement with respect to the recovery of Advances and accrued interest thereon shall, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 3, be limited to the Designated Receivables actually received from Oriental Land under the Basic Agreement (whether such payments shall be received from Oriental Land by collection in the ordinary course of business, by legal proceedings to enforce Oriental Land's payment obligations under the Basic Agreement or otherwise). In the event that Oriental Land shall not, under the terms of the Basic Agreement or by reason of the termination of the Basic Agreement, be obligated to make payment of any Designated Receivables, Disney shall have no liability to the Company with respect thereto except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 3. The obligations of Disney hereunder, other than with respect to the Advances and accrued interest thereon, are general obligations of Disney ranking pari passu in priority of payment and in all other respects with all other unsecured and unsubordinated Indebtedness of Disney.

3.2 Shortfall Indemnities

(a) QUARTERLY SHORTFALL PAYMENTS. If, on the Settlement Date for any Quarterly Receivables Period, the amount of the Designated Receivables which has actually been received from Oriental Land is less than the Designated Receivables set forth on Schedule 1 annexed hereto with respect to such Quarterly Receivables Period, then Disney shall make a payment to the Company on such Settlement Date in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of such shortfall and (ii) twenty percent (20%) of the Designated Receivables set forth on Schedule 1 annexed hereto with respect to such Quarterly Receivables Period, provided, however, that the aggregate amount payable pursuant to this Section
3.02 (other than any amount payable pursuant to Section 3.02(b)(ii)(C)) shall not exceed twenty percent (20%) of the aggregate Advances received by Disney on the Drawing Date.

(b) ANNUAL ADJUSTMENT OF QUARTERLY SHORTFALL PAYMENTS. If, on the Settlement Date for the fourth Quarterly Receivables Period in any Annual Receivables Period, the sum of (A) the Designated Receivables with respect to such Annual Receivables Period which have actually been received from Oriental Land and (B) the quarterly shortfall indemnity payments made by Disney to the Company pursuant to Section 3.02(a) during such Annual Receivables Period is less than the aggregate Designated Receivables set forth on Schedule 1 annexed hereto with respect to such Annual Receivables Period, then Disney shall make a payment to the Company equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of such shortfall and accrued interest thereon pursuant to Section 3.02(c) and (ii) the sum of (C) the Tokyo Disneyland Receivables in excess of the Designated Receivables actually received by Disney in each of the Quarterly Receivables Periods during such Annual Receivables Period and (D) twenty percent (20%) of the Designated Receivables set forth on Schedule 1 annexed hereto with respect to such Annual Receivables Period, as such sum is reduced by (E) the quarterly shortfall indemnity

-10-

payments previously made by Disney to the Company pursuant to Section 3.02(a) during such Annual Receivables Period, provided, however, that the aggregate amount payable by Disney pursuant to this Section 3.02 (other than any amount payable pursuant to Section 3.02(b)(ii)(C)) shall not exceed twenty percent (20%) of the aggregate Advances received by Disney on the Drawing Date. Payments pursuant to this Section 3.02(b) shall be made by Disney to the Company not later than five (5) Business Days following the Company's written demand hereunder, which demand shall set forth the Company's calculations as to the amounts so due, such calculations to be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto absent manifest error.

(c) INTEREST ON ANNUAL ADJUSTMENT PAYMENTS. For any Annual Receivables Period with respect to which an annual adjustment payment is due pursuant to Section 3.02(b), the annual adjustment payment so due shall, for the purpose of the determination of interest due pursuant thereto and to this
Section 3.02(c), be allocated to each Settlement Date with respect to such Annual Receivables Period on which the sum of the Designated Receivables actually received from Oriental Land and the quarterly shortfall indemnity payment made by Disney to the Company on such Settlement Date pursuant to
Section 3.02(a) was less than the Designated Receivables set forth on Schedule 1 annexed hereto for the Quarterly Receivables Period to which such Settlement Date relates (the amount of such deficiency for each such Settlement Date being hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "residual quarterly shortfall"), such allocation of the amount of the annual adjustment payment to each such Settlement Date being in the amount of such residual quarterly shortfall,

provided, however, that if the limitations set forth in Section 3.02(b) on the amount of such annual adjustment payment result in the amount of such payment being less than the aggregate amount of the residual quarterly shortfalls with respect to such Annual Receivables Period, the annual adjustment payment shall be allocated to the residual quarterly shortfalls for the earliest Settlement Dates with respect to such Annual Receivables Period until fully allocated. Interest shall be payable on such residual quarterly shortfalls, for the period from and including the relevant Settlement Date to but excluding the date on which payment of the relevant annual adjustment payment hereunder is made by Disney, at the Long Term Prime Lending Rate prevailing during such period, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.02(b).

(d) DEFERRED SHORTFALL PAYMENTS. In the event that Disney shall have made payments to the Company pursuant to Sections 3.02(a) and (b) with respect to any four consecutive Quarterly Receivables Periods to the full extent of the twenty percent (20%) limitations for such Quarterly Receivables Periods (including the annual adjustment payments attributable to such Quarterly Receivables Periods in accordance with Section 3.02(c)) as set forth in Sections 3.02(a)(ii) and 3.02(b)(ii)(D) and, during such period of four consecutive Quarterly Receivables Periods Tokyo Disneyland Park or any substantial portion thereof shall have been closed to the public for more than thirty (30) consecutive days for any reason whatsoever other than normal public holidays and regularly scheduled maintenance, then the aggregate amount of (i) the residual quarterly shortfalls for such four consecutive Quarterly Receivables Periods or
(ii) if greater, the residual quarterly shortfalls for the four consecutive Quarterly Receivables Periods commencing with the Quarterly Receivables Period immediately

(a) Disney shall use its best efforts to ensure the performance by Oriental Land of its obligations under the Basic Agreement to make timely payments of the Designated Receivables to the Lock Box Account.

(b) Disney shall not, with respect to the Basic Agreement as it relates to Tokyo Disneyland Park, (i) amend, otherwise modify or waive the benefit of any of the provisions of Paragraph 3 entitled "Term", Paragraph 9.3 entitled "WDP Participation in Operations", Paragraph 11 entitled "Payments to WDP and Financial Reporting" (other than the provisions of Paragraphs 11.1.3, 11.1.4 and 11.1.5), Paragraph 20 entitled "Termination", Paragraph 21 entitled "Business or Economic Hardship", Paragraph 25 entitled "Force Majeure" or Paragraph 30.11 entitled "Successors and Assigns" of the Basic Agreement, (ii) amend, otherwise modify or waive the benefit of any other of the provisions of the Basic Agreement which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's interest in or collection of any of the Designated Receivables or any portion thereof, or (iii) consent to any sublicense, assignment, delegation, mortgage or hypothecation of any of Oriental Land's rights, privileges, duties or obligations under the Basic Agreement pursuant to Paragraph 30.11 thereof, without in each such case obtaining the prior written consent of the Company. The foregoing provisions of this Section 7.11(b) shall not restrict the right of Disney and Oriental Land to amend, otherwise modify or waive the benefit of any provision of the Basic Agreement to the extent that such amendment, modification or waiver does not relate to Tokyo Disneyland Park. In the event that Disney shall undertake, on such terms and conditions as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that all obligations hereunder with respect to the recovery of the Advances, the payment of accrued interest thereon and the payment of all other amounts due hereunder and under the other Disney Agreements shall be general recourse obligations of Disney, Disney shall have the unrestricted right to amend, otherwise modify or waive the benefit of any provision of the Basic Agreement and the foregoing restrictions contained in this Section 7.11(b) shall be of no further force or effect.

Disney shall not assign any of its rights or obligations under the Basic Agreement without the prior consent of the Company (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld).

(d) Disney shall give prompt notice to the Company, upon becoming aware

-27-

thereof, that any of the Designated Receivables will not be timely paid in full by Oriental Land, and such notice shall state, to the best of Disney's knowledge, the reasons such Designated Receivables will not be timely paid in full.

(e) Upon the occurrence of a default by Oriental Land in the performance of any of its obligations under the Basic Agreement which, in the reasonable opinion of the Company, will or is likely to cause Oriental Land to fail to pay or to reduce any of the Designated Receivables, Disney shall take such enforcement or remedial action with respect to the collection of the Designated Receivables for the Company's benefit as the Company may reasonably request.

(f) During the term of this Agreement, Disney shall irrevocably direct Oriental Land to make all payments of Tokyo Disneyland Receivables due under the Basic Agreement in Yen to the Lock Box Account. Should Oriental Land make any payment with respect to the Tokyo Disneyland Receivables or any Designated Receivables directly to Disney rather than to the Lock Box Account, Disney shall immediately deposit such payment, or cause such payment to be deposited, to the Lock Box Account. Disney shall not use the Lock Box Account or permit the Lock Box Account to be used for any purpose other than the receipt of Tokyo Disneyland Receivables and the application of such payments in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

(g) Disney shall extend the initial term of the Basic Agreement to expire on March 31, 2008 in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 3 of the Basic Agreement.

-34-

SECTION 11: MISCELLANEOUS

11.1 Term

The term of this Agreement shall commence on the date first set forth above and shall end on the date of termination of the Commitment hereunder or, if later, upon the recovery by the Company in full of the Advances and interest accrued thereon and the payment in full of all other sums payable by Disney hereunder. The indemnities of Disney set forth in Sections 3 and 4 shall survive the recovery of the Advances and interest accrued thereon.

11.2 Entire Agreement

This Agreement and the documents referred to herein constitute the entire obligation of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede any prior expressions of intent or understandings with respect to this transaction. This Agreement may be amended only by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto.

11.3 Waiver; Cumulative Rights

The failure or delay of the Company or the Manager to require performance by Disney or Oriental Land of any provision of any of the Disney Agreements or the Basic Agreement shall not affect its right to require performance of such provision unless and until such performance has been waived in writing by the Company or the Manager, as the case may be, in accordance with the terms hereof. Each and every right granted to the Company or the Manager hereunder or under any other document or instrument delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, or allowed to it at law or in equity, shall be cumulative and may be exercised in part or in whole from time to time.

11.4 Assignment

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall be enforceable by Disney, the Company, the Manager and their respective successors and assigns, except that Disney shall have no right to assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Company. The Company or the Manager may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations hereunder, and any such assignment shall be effective and binding upon Disney as of the date of such assignment or transfer upon Disney's written consent thereto and, in the case of an assignment or transfer by the Company, the Company and Disney having complied with the requirements of Sections 11.04(b) and (c) unless Disney shall have waived such provisions to be complied with by the Company by written consent. Upon any such assignment or transfer by the Company, the assignee or transferee shall be entitled, to the extent of the interest transferred, to the benefit of the indemnities, the covenants and the yield protection provisions pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement as

-35-

fully as if a party hereto. The acts of the Company and the Manager or the failure of the Company or the Manager to act hereunder shall in all circumstances be conclusive and binding on any assignee or transferee of the Company's or the Manager's interest hereunder.

(b) It is agreed that Disney shall have the right to consent to any transfer of any interest in this Agreement. Disney shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any assignment, provided that Disney has received from the Company, the transferor and the transferee such information, representations and warranties which in its commercially reasonable judgment are appropriate for such transfer. Such consent or the procedures for obtaining such consent may be included in any consent given by Disney to assignments or transfers hereunder. Disney shall, during the term of this Agreement, maintain on its books a record of the beneficial interests held in this Agreement based on the information which the Company is required to provide pursuant to this Section 11.04(b). Disney shall have no liability to the Company or any such assignee or transferee for any error in the recordation of such information on its books.

(c) Upon any further assignment or other transfer of an interest in this Agreement by an assignee or transferee of the Company hereunder, the assignor or transferor with respect to such further assignment or transfer shall provide to the Company such information and undertakings from its assignee or transferee as will permit the Company to comply with the requirements of Sections 11.04(a) and (b), which requirements shall apply equally to any such further assignment or transfer as to the original assignment or transfer from the Company to its assignee or transferee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the prior written consent of Disney shall not be required with respect to any such further assignment or transfer within twelve months of the Drawing Date by any of the financial institutions holding beneficial interests in the Advances on the Drawing Date (as set forth in the book entry system maintained pursuant to
Section 11.04(b)) which assignment or transfer creates a security interest in the assignor's or transferor's rights hereunder solely to secure its obligations with respect to its funding of its interest in the Advances and which assignment or transfer, prior to foreclosure of the security interest constituted thereby, does not convey any beneficial interest in the Advances to the assignee or transferee.

Without limiting the Committee's authority under other provisions of the Plan, but subject to any express limitations of the Plan and Section 5.8, the Committee shall have the authority accelerate a Bonus (after the attainment of the applicable Performance Target(s)) and to waive restrictive conditions for a Bonus (including any forfeiture conditions, but not Performance Target(s)), in such circumstances as the Committee deems appropriate. In the case of any acceleration of a Bonus after the attainment of the applicable Performance Target(s), the amount payable shall be discounted to its present value using an interest rate equal to Moody's Average Corporate Bond Yield for the month preceding the month in which such acceleration occurs. Any deferred payment shall be subject to Section 4.9 and, if applicable, Section 4.10.

SECTION 4. BONUS PROVISIONS.

4.1 Provision for Bonus. Each Participant may receive a Bonus if and only if the Performance Target(s) established by the Committee, relative to the applicable Business Criteria, are attained. The applicable Performance Period and Performance Target(s) shall be determined by the Committee consistent with the terms of the Plan and Section 162(m). Notwithstanding the fact that the Performance Target(s) have been attained, the Company may pay a Bonus of less than the amount determined by the formula or standard established pursuant to
Section 4.2 or may pay no Bonus at all, unless the Committee otherwise expressly provides by written contract or other written commitment.

4.2 Selection of Performance Target(s). The specific Performance Target(s) with respect to the Business Criteria must be established by the Committee in advance of the deadlines applicable under Section 162(m) and while the performance relating to the Performance Target(s) remains substantially uncertain within the meaning of Section 162(m). At the time the Performance Target(s) are selected, the Committee shall provide, in terms of an objective formula or standard for each Participant, and for any person who may become a Participant after the Performance Target(s) are set, the method of computing the specific amount that will represent the maximum amount of Bonus payable to the Participant if the Performance Target(s) are attained, subject to Sections 4.1, 4.3, 4.7, 5.1 and 5.8.

4

4.3 Maximum Individual Bonus. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, no Executive shall receive a Bonus under the Plan for the Year in excess of $15 million, or, if less, his or her Base Salary Multiple. No Executive shall receive aggregate bonuses under this Plan in excess of $75 million in the case of the Chief Executive Officer or $50 million in the case of any other Executive. The foregoing limits shall be subject to adjustments consistent with
Section 3.4.

4.4 Selection of Participants. For each Performance Period, the Committee shall determine, at the time the Business Criteria and the Performance Target(s) are set, those Executives who will participate in the Plan.

4.5 Effect of Mid-Year Commencement of Service. To the extent compatible with Sections 4.2 and 5.8, if services as an Executive commence after the adoption of the Plan and the Performance Target(s) are established for a Performance Period, the Committee may grant a Bonus that is proportionately adjusted based on the period of actual service during the Year; the amount of any Bonus paid to such person shall not exceed that proportionate amount of the applicable maximum individual bonus under Section 4.3.

4.6 Changes Resulting From Material Acquisitions, Dispositions or
Recapitalizations; Extraordinary Items; Accounting Changes. Subject to Section 5.8, if, after the Performance Target(s) are established for a Performance Period, a change occurs in the applicable accounting principles or practices, the amount of the Bonuses paid under this Plan for such Performance Period shall be determined without regard to such change.

4.7 Committee Discretion to Determine Bonuses. The Committee has the sole discretion to determine the standard or formula pursuant to which each Participant's Bonus shall be calculated (in accordance with Section 4.2), whether all or any portion of the amount so calculated will be paid, and the specific amount (if any) to be paid to each Participant, subject in all cases to the terms, conditions and limits of the Plan and of any other written commitment authorized by the Committee. To this same extent, the Committee may at any time establish additional conditions and terms of payment of Bonuses (including but not limited to the achievement of other financial, strategic or individual goals, which may be objective or subjective) as it may deem desirable in carrying out the purposes of the Plan and may take into account such other factors as it deems appropriate in administering any aspect of the Plan. The Committee may not, however, increase the maximum amount permitted to be paid to any individual under Section 4.2 or 4.3 of the Plan or award a Bonus under this Plan if the applicable Performance Target(s) have not

5

been satisfied.

4.8 Committee Certification. No Executive shall receive any payment under the Plan unless the Committee has certified, by resolution or other appropriate action in writing, that the amount thereof has been accurately determined in accordance with the terms, conditions and limits of the Plan and that the Performance Target(s) and any other material terms previously established by the Committee or set forth in the Plan were in fact satisfied.

4.9 Time of Payment; Deferred Amounts. Any Bonuses granted by the Committee under the Plan shall be paid as soon as practicable following the Committee's determinations under this Section 4 and the certification of the Committee's findings under Section 4.8. Any such payment shall be in cash or cash equivalent or in such other form of equal value on such payment date (including Shares or share equivalents as contemplated by Section 4.10) as the Committee may approve or require, subject to applicable withholding requirements and Section 4.10. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee, in its sole discretion (but subject to any prior written commitments and to any conditions consistent with Sections 3.4, 4.3, 4.10 and 5.8 that it deems appropriate), defer the payout or vesting of any Bonus and/or provide to Participants the opportunity to elect to defer the payment of any Bonus under a nonqualified deferred compensation plan and as contemplated by Section 4.10. In the case of any deferred payment of a Bonus after the attainment of the applicable Performance Target(s), any amount in excess of the amount otherwise payable shall be based on either Moody's Average Corporate Bond Yield over the deferral period or one or more predetermined actual investments (including Shares) such that the amount payable at the later date will be based upon actual returns, including any decrease or increase in the value of the investment(s), unless the alternative deferred payment is otherwise exempt from the limitations under
Section 162(m).

4.10 Share Payouts. Any Shares payable under the Plan shall be pursuant to a combined Award under the Plan and the Company's 1995 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended or another stockholder approved stock incentive plan of the Company (the "Stock Plan"). The number of Shares or stock units (or similar deferred award representing a right to receive Shares) awarded in lieu of all or any portion of a cash bonus under the Plan shall be equal to the largest whole number of Shares which have an aggregate fair market value no greater than the amount of cash otherwise payable as of the date such cash payment would have been paid. For this purpose, "fair market value" shall mean the average of the high and low prices of Company common stock on such date. Any stock units (or similar rights) shall thereafter be

6

subject to adjustments as contemplated by the Stock Plan. Dividend equivalent rights as earned may be accrued and payable in additional stock units, cash or Shares or any combination thereof, in the Committee's discretion.

SECTION 5. GENERAL PROVISIONS

5.1 No Right to Bonus or Continued Employment. Neither the establishment of the Plan nor the provision for or payment of any amounts hereunder nor any action of the Company (including, for purposes of this Section 5.1, any predecessor or subsidiary), the Board of Directors of the Company or the Committee in respect of the Plan, shall be held or construed to confer upon any person any legal right to receive, or any interest in, a Bonus or any other benefit under the Plan, or any legal right to be continued in the employ of the Company. The Company expressly reserves any and all rights to discharge an Executive in its sole discretion, without liability of any person, entity or governing body under the Plan or otherwise. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof and notwithstanding the fact that the Performance Target(s) have been attained and/or the individual maximum amounts pursuant to Section 4.2 have been calculated, the Company shall have no obligation to pay any Bonus hereunder nor to pay the maximum amount so calculated or any prorated amount based on service during the period, unless the Committee otherwise expressly provides by written contract or other written commitment.

5.2 Discretion of Company, Board of Directors and Committee. Any decision made or action taken by the Company or by the Board of Directors of the Company or by the Committee arising out of or in connection with the creation, amendment, construction, administration, interpretation and effect of the Plan shall be within the absolute discretion of such entity and shall be conclusive and binding upon all persons. No member of the Committee shall have any liability for actions taken or omitted under the Plan by the member or any other person.

5.3 Absence of Liability. A member of the Board of Directors of the Company or a member of the Committee of the Company or any officer of the Company shall not be liable for any act or inaction hereunder, whether of commission or omission.

5.4 No Funding of Plan. The Company shall not be required to fund or otherwise segregate any cash or any other assets which may at any time be paid to Participants under the Plan. The Plan shall constitute an "unfunded" plan of the Company. The Company shall not, by any provisions of the Plan, be deemed to be a trustee of any property, and any obligations of the Company to any Participant under the Plan shall be those of a

7

debtor and any rights of any Participant or former Participant shall be no greater than those of a general unsecured creditor.

5.5 Non-Transferability of Benefits and Interests. Except as expressly provided by the Committee, no benefit payable under the Plan shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge, and any such attempted action be void and no such benefit shall be in any manner liable for or subject to debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of any Participant or former Participant. This Section 5.5 shall not apply to an assignment of a contingency or payment due after the death of the Executive to the deceased Executive's legal representative or beneficiary.

5.6 Law to Govern. All questions pertaining to the construction, regulation, validity and effect of the provisions of the Plan shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

5.7 Non-Exclusivity. Subject to Section 5.8, the Plan does not limit the authority of the Company, the Board or the Committee, or any subsidiary of the Company to grant awards or authorize any other compensation under any other plan or authority, including, without limitation, awards or other compensation based on the same Performance Target(s) used under the Plan. In addition, Executives not selected to participate in the Plan may participate in other plans of the Company.

5.8 Section 162(m) Conditions; Bifurcation of Plan. It is the intent of the Company that the Plan and Bonuses paid hereunder satisfy and be interpreted in a manner, that, in the case of Participants who are or may be persons whose compensation is subject to Section 162(m), satisfies any applicable requirements as performance-based compensation. Any provision, application or interpretation of the Plan inconsistent with this intent to satisfy the standards in Section 162(m) of the Code shall be disregarded. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, the provisions of the Plan may at any time be bifurcated by the Board or the Committee in any manner so that certain provisions of the Plan or any Bonus intended (or required in order) to satisfy the applicable requirements of Section 162(m) are only applicable to persons whose compensation is subject to Section 162(m).

8

SECTION 6. AMENDMENTS, SUSPENSION OR TERMINATION OF PLAN

The Board of Directors or the Committee may from time to time amend, suspend or terminate in whole or in part, and if suspended or terminated, may reinstate, any or all of the provisions of the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment may be effective without Board of Directors and/or shareholder approval if such approval is necessary to comply with the applicable rules of Section 162(m) of the Code.

(a) to receive his or her Eligible Compensation for the Year in Shares and/or
(b) to defer:

(1) In a Cash Account the Eligible Compensation not otherwise deferred in Stock Units for services to be rendered by the Eligible Director during the next Year (or remainder of the Year, as the case may be); or

3

5. DEFERRAL ACCOUNTS

5.1 CASH ACCOUNT.

If an Eligible Director has made a cash election under Section 4.1(b)(1), the Company shall establish and maintain a Cash Account for the Participant under this Plan, which Account shall be a memorandum account on the books of the Company. An Eligible Director's Cash Account shall be credited as follows:

(a) As of the date the Eligible Compensation would have been otherwise payable, the Company shall credit the Participant's Cash Account with an amount equal to the Applicable Percentage of the Eligible Compensation; and

(b) As of the last day of each calendar quarter, the Participant's Cash Account shall be credited with interest on the balance credited to such account as of the last day of the preceding quarter, plus interest from the applicable date of crediting under Section 5.1(a) on any additional amounts deferred during the current quarter, at the Interest Rate (adjusted for the applicable period of accrual).

5.2 STOCK UNIT ACCOUNT.

(a) Elective Deferrals.

(1) Ongoing Elections. If an Eligible Director has made a Stock Unit election under Section 4.1(b)(2), the Committee shall, as of the last day of each calendar quarter in which the Eligible Compensation was earned and would otherwise be paid, credit the Participant's Stock Unit Account with a number of Units determined by dividing an amount which is equal to the Applicable Percentage of the Participant's Eligible Compensation (after crediting any interest that would have been credited as of such date if the amount had been deferred into a Cash Account under Section 5.1) by the Average Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of the Award Date.

(2) One-Time Rollover Election. If an Eligible Director has made a Stock Unit election under Section 8.8, the Committee shall, as of December 31, 1997, credit the Participant's Stock Unit Account with a number of Units determined by dividing the Applicable Percentage of the Rollover Account (after crediting any interest that would have been credited as of such date under the 1984 Plan) by the Average Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of the Award Date.

(b) Limitations on Rights Associated with Units. An Eligible Director's Stock Unit Account shall be a memorandum account on the books of the Company. The Units credited to an Eligible Director's Stock Unit Account shall be used solely as a device for the

4

determination of the number of shares of Common Stock to be eventually distributed to the Participant in accordance with this Plan. The Units shall not be treated as property or as a trust fund of any kind. No Participant shall be entitled to any voting or other stockholder rights with respect to Units granted or credited under this Plan. The number of Units credited (and the number of Shares to which the Participant is entitled under this Plan) shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with
Section 5.7 and the terms of this Plan.

5.3 SHARE ACCOUNTS.

If an Eligible Director has made a Share election under Section 4.1(a), an amount equal to the Applicable Percentage of the Eligible Compensation shall be credited to a Share Account, payable as soon as practicable after the end of the applicable Year or any earlier termination of service. The amount of the Share Account shall accrue interest from the date the Eligible Compensation deferred would otherwise have been paid until the Year-end (or earlier date of termination) at the Interest Rate (adjusted for the applicable period of accrual).

5.4 DIVIDEND EQUIVALENT CREDITS TO STOCK UNIT ACCOUNT.

As of the end of each quarter, an Eligible Director's Stock Unit Account shall be credited with additional Units in an amount equal to the Dividend Equivalents representing dividends paid during the quarter on a number of shares equal to the aggregate number of Stock Units in the Participant's Stock Unit Account as of the end of the preceding quarter divided by the Average Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of the applicable crediting date.

5.5 IMMEDIATE VESTING AND ACCELERATED CREDITING.

(a) Units and Other Amounts Vest Immediately. All Units or other amounts credited to one or more of an Eligible Director's Accounts shall be at all times fully vested and not subject to a risk of forfeiture.

(b) Acceleration of Crediting of Accounts. The crediting of the rights to payment of each Participant in respect of Accounts shall be accelerated if an Eligible Director ceases to serve as a director of the Company. In such case, the amount of interest at the Interest Rate (adjusted for the applicable period of accrual), Units or Shares credited for the quarter in which the termination of services occurs shall be prorated based on the number of days of service during the applicable quarter. For these purposes, the Award Date shall be deemed to be the date of termination of service.

5

5.6 DISTRIBUTION OF CASH OR SHARES.

(a) Time and Manner of Distribution of Accounts.

(1) Cash Accounts and Stock Units Account. The cash or Shares respectively payable under this Plan in respect of Cash Accounts or Stock Unit Accounts shall be distributed to the Participant (or, in the event of his or her death, the Participant's Beneficiary), subject to Section 8.8, at such time and in such manner as elected by the Participant and set forth in the Participant's Election Agreement. A Participant may elect any of the distribution commencement dates and methods of distribution (lump sum or annual installments) set forth in the form of Election Agreement approved by the Committee from time to time, initially the form of Exhibit A attached hereto.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if after a termination of service the balance remaining in an Eligible Director's Cash Account is less than $10,000 or, if the number of Units remaining in the Participant's Stock Unit Accounts is less than 100, then such remaining balances shall be distributed in a lump sum.

(2) Share Account. The Shares payable under this Plan in respect of Share Accounts under Section 5.3 shall be delivered as soon as practicable after completion of the Year (or shorter service period, in the event of termination of service), but no later than 30 business days following (x) the end of the Year or (y) the date of termination of service, if applicable. The number of Shares deliverable shall be determined by (i) dividing the amount of the Share Account (after crediting all amounts contemplated hereby) by the "Average Annual Fair Market Value" of the Company's Common Stock during the Year or other applicable service period, and (ii) rounding the number of Shares determined down to the nearer whole number of such Shares. The "Average Annual Fair Market Value" means the sum of the Fair Market Values of the Common Stock on the last day of each quarter during the applicable service period (i.e., the calendar year or applicable

shorter period) divided by the number of measurement dates during such service period.

(b) Change in Manner of Distribution of Cash Accounts or Stock Unit
Accounts. A Participant may change the manner of any distribution election from a lump sum to annual installments (or vice versa) with respect to amounts credited under a Cash Account or Stock Unit Account by filing a written election with the Committee on a form provided by the Committee;

provided, however, that no such election shall be effective until at least 12 months after such election is filed with the Committee, and no such election shall be effective with respect to any Account after benefits with respect to such Account have commenced. An election made pursuant to this
Section 5.6(b) shall not affect the date of the commencement of benefits.

(c) Change in Time of Distribution of Cash Accounts or Stock Unit
Accounts. A Participant may elect to further defer the commencement of any distribution to be made with respect to amounts credited under any Cash or Stock Unit Account by filing a new written election with the Committee on a form approved by the Committee; provided, however, that (1) no such election shall be effective until 12 months after such election is

6

filed with the Committee, and (2) no such new election shall be effective with respect to any Account after benefits with respect to the Account shall have commenced. An election made pursuant to this Section 5.6(c) shall not affect the manner of distribution (i.e., lump sum versus

installments), the terms of which shall be subject to Section 5.6(b) above.

(d) Form of Distribution of Cash Accounts or Stock Unit Accounts.
Stock Units credited to an Eligible Director's Stock Unit Account shall be distributed in an equivalent whole number of shares of the Company's Common Stock. Any fractional share interests shall be accumulated and paid in cash with the last distribution. All amounts credited to an Eligible Director's Cash Account shall be distributed in cash.

(e) Acceleration of Share Account Distribution on Termination of
Service. Notwithstanding Sections 5.6(a) (2) if a Participant's service terminates, a Participant's Share Account (including accelerated benefits under Section 5.5(b)), if any, shall be distributed as soon as practicable, but no later than 30 business days thereafter, and the number and valuation of the Shares will be based on the amount in the Account, plus interest (on a per diem basis) based on the Interest Rate (adjusted for the applicable accrual period), divided by the Average Annual Fair Market Value.

(f) Acceleration. The Board by declaration may accelerate any payment date (using for valuation purposes the date of its decision and prior retainer payment dates in the applicable period) in extraordinary circumstances where it determines that such action is necessary or advisable to prevent a forfeiture or permit the realization of intended benefits and is otherwise fair to the director and the Company.

5.7 ADJUSTMENTS IN CASE OF CHANGES IN COMMON STOCK.

If there shall occur any change in the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, combination or other reorganization, exchange of shares, sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, split-up, split- off, spin-off, extraordinary redemption, liquidation or similar corporate change or change in capitalization or any distribution to holders of the Company's Common Stock (other than cash dividends and cash distributions), the Committee shall make such proportionate and equitable adjustments consistent with the effect of such event on stockholders generally (but without duplication of benefits if Dividend Equivalents are credited), as the Committee determines to be necessary or appropriate, in the number, kind and/or character of shares of Common Stock or other securities, property and/or rights contemplated hereunder, including any appropriate adjustments to the market prices used in the determination of the number of Shares and Units, and in rights in respect of Stock Unit Accounts and Share Accounts credited under this Plan so as to preserve the benefits intended.

7

6. ADMINISTRATION

6.1 THE ADMINISTRATOR.

The Administrator of this Plan shall be the Board as a whole or a Committee as appointed from time to time by the Board to serve as administrator of this Plan. The participating members of any Committee so acting shall include, as to decisions in respect of participants who are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, only those members who are Non-Employee Directors (as defined in Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act). Members of the Committee shall not receive any additional compensation for administration of this Plan.

6.2 COMMITTEE ACTION.

A member of the Committee shall not vote or act upon any matter which relates solely to himself or herself as a Participant in this Plan. Action of the Committee with respect to the administration of this Plan shall be taken pursuant to a majority vote or (assuming compliance with Section 6.1) by unanimous written consent of its members.

6.3 RIGHTS AND DUTIES; DELEGATION AND RELIANCE; DECISIONS BINDING.

Subject to the limitations of this Plan, the Committee shall be charged with the general administration of this Plan and the responsibility for carrying out its provisions, and shall have powers necessary to accomplish those purposes, including, but not by way of limitation, the following:

(1) To construe and interpret this Plan;

(2) To resolve any questions concerning the amount of benefits payable to a Participant (except that no member of the Committee shall participate in a decision relating solely to his or her own benefits);

(3) To make all other determinations required by this Plan;

(4) To maintain all the necessary records for the administration of this Plan; and

(5) To make and publish forms, rules and procedures for the administration of this Plan.

The determination of the Committee made in good faith as to any disputed question or controversy and the Committee's determination of benefits payable to Participants, including decisions as to adjustments under Section 5.7, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes of this Plan. In performing its duties, the Committee shall be entitled to rely on information, opinions, reports or statements prepared or presented by: (i) officers or employees of the Company whom the Committee believes to be reliable and competent as to such matters; and
(ii) counsel (who may be employees of the Company), independent accountants and other persons as to matters which the Committee believes to be within such persons' professional or expert competence. The Committee

8

shall be fully protected with respect to any action taken or omitted by it in good faith pursuant to the advice of such persons. The Committee may delegate ministerial, bookkeeping and other non-discretionary functions to individuals who are officers or employees of the Company.

7. PLAN CHANGES AND TERMINATION

7.1 AMENDMENTS.

The Board shall have the right to amend this Plan in whole or in part from time to time or may at any time suspend or terminate this Plan; provided, however, that, except as contemplated by Section 5.7, no amendment or termination shall cancel or otherwise adversely affect in any way, without his or her written consent, any Participant's rights with respect to then outstanding Accounts (and the right to interest (the specific rate of which may be changed from time to time by the Board as above provided) or Dividend Equivalent credits thereon so long as the Account is outstanding). Any amendments authorized hereby shall be stated in an instrument in writing, and all Participants shall be bound by upon receipt of notice the amendment.

7.2 TERM.

It is the current expectation of the Company that this Plan shall continue indefinitely, but, in the case of the crediting of the Stock Units and/or Share Accounts, subject to the continued availability of treasury shares. Continuance of this Plan, however, is not assumed as a contractual obligation of the Company. If the Board of Directors decides to discontinue or terminate this Plan, it shall notify the Committee and Participants in this Plan of its action in writing, and this Plan shall be terminated at the time set forth on the notice. All Participants shall be bound thereby. No benefits shall accrue in respect of Eligible Compensation earned after a discontinuance or termination of this Plan.

8. MISCELLANEOUS

8.1. LIMITATION ON PARTICIPANTS' RIGHTS.

Participation in this Plan shall not give any person the right to serve as a member of the Board or any rights or interests other than as herein provided. This Plan shall create only a contractual obligation on the part of the Company as to such amounts and shall not be construed as creating a trust. This Plan, in and of itself, has no assets. Participants shall have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to amounts credited and benefits payable, if any, on their Cash Accounts, and rights no greater than the right to receive the Common Stock (or equivalent value as a general unsecured creditor) with respect to Stock Units or Share Accounts. Participants shall not be entitled to receive actual dividends or to vote Shares until after delivery of a certificate representing the Shares.

9

8.2. BENEFICIARIES.

(a) Beneficiary Designation. Upon forms provided by and subject to conditions imposed by the Company, each Participant may designate in writing the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries (as defined in Section 8.2(b)) whom such Participant desires to receive any amounts payable under this Plan after his or her death. The Company and the Committee may rely on the Participant's designation of a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries last filed in accordance with the terms of this Plan.

(b) Definition of Beneficiary. A Participant's "Beneficiary" or "Beneficiaries" shall be the person, persons, trust or trusts (or similar entity) designated by the Participant or, in the absence of a designation, entitled by will or the laws of descent and distribution to receive the Participant's benefits under this Plan in the event of the Participant's death, and shall mean the Participant's executor or administrator if no other Beneficiary is identified and able to act under the circumstances.

8.3. BENEFITS NOT TRANSFERABLE; OBLIGATIONS BINDING UPON SUCCESSORS.

Benefits of a Participant under this Plan shall not be assignable or transferable and any purported transfer, assignment, pledge or other encumbrance or attachment of any payments or benefits under this Plan, or any interest therein, other than by operation of law or pursuant to Section 8.2, shall not be permitted or recognized. Shares deliverable under this Plan may be subject to restrictions on transfer under applicable securities laws, unless the Shares are duly registered prior to issuance. Obligations of the Company under this Plan shall be binding upon successors of the Company.

8.4. GOVERNING LAW; SEVERABILITY.

The validity of this Plan or any of its provisions shall be construed, administered and governed in all respects under the laws of the State of Delaware. If any provisions of this Plan shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof shall continue to be fully effective.

8.5. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS.

This Plan and the offer, issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock and/or the payment of money through the deferral of compensation under this Plan are subject to compliance with all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations (including but not limited to state and federal securities law) and to such approvals by any listing, agency or any regulatory or governmental authority as may, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, be necessary or advisable in connection therewith. Any securities delivered under this Plan shall be subject to prior registration or such restrictions as the Company may deem necessary or desirable to assure compliance with all applicable legal requirements, and the person acquiring such securities shall, if requested by the Company, provide such assurances and representations to the Company as it may reasonably request to assure such compliance.

10

8.6. PLAN CONSTRUCTION.

It is the intent of the Company that transactions pursuant to this Plan satisfy and be interpreted in a manner that satisfies the applicable conditions for exemption under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act ("Rule 16b-3") so that to the extent elections are timely made, elective deferrals (including the crediting of Units and Dividend Equivalents and the distribution of Shares hereunder) will be entitled to the benefits of Rule 16b-3 or other exemptive rules under Section 16 of the Exchange Act and will not be subjected to avoidable liability thereunder. The Committee may, subject to Sections 8.5, permit elections by individual directors that would not qualify for exemption under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, so long as the availability of any exemption thereunder for other Directors under this Plan is not compromised.

8.7. HEADINGS NOT PART OF PLAN.

Headings and subheadings in this Plan are inserted for reference only and are not to be considered in the construction of the provisions hereof.

8.8. RELATIONSHIP TO THE 1984 DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN FOR OUTSIDE DIRECTORS (THE "1984 PLAN").

This Plan supersedes in its entirety the 1984 Plan effective December 31, 1997. On that date, accrued balances under the 1984 Plan for the benefit of any current Eligible Director shall be credited to a Cash Account or, at the irrevocable election of the director submitted in the form of Exhibit B and received by the Company prior to December 30, 1997, a Stock Unit Account under this Plan. The Account thereafter shall be credited and payable in accordance with the provisions of this Plan applicable to Stock Unit Accounts and/or Cash

Accounts, as the case may be.

     limitation shall not apply to amendments necessary to comply with
     laws or regulations. However, no amendment shall make it possible
     for any part of the funds of the Plan to be used for, or diverted
     to, purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of persons
     entitled to benefits under the Plan. No amendment shall be made
     which has the effect of decreasing the accrued benefits of any
     Participant or of reducing the nonforfeitable percentage of the
     accrued benefits of a Participant below the nonforfeitable
     percentage computed under the Plan as in effect on the date on
     which the amendment is adopted or, if later, the date on which
     the amendment becomes effective. Any action required or permitted
     to be taken by the Board of Directors or the Committee under the
     Plan shall be by resolution adopted by the Board of Directors or
     the Committee at a meeting held either in person or by telephone
     or other electronic means, or by unanimous written consent in
     lieu of a meeting.

3.   Effective as of September 7, 1995, Section 11.05(c) is amended in

its entirety to read as follows:

(c) After providing for payment of any expenses properly chargeable against the Trust Fund, the Committee may direct the Trustee to distribute assets remaining in the Trust Fund. Assets in any Suspense Account must be returned to the Employers in kind. Distributions to Participants or Beneficiaries may be in cash or in kind and are not subject to the regular distribution provisions of this Plan except distributions must be in a form that the Committee determines consistent with statutory requirements. Except as specifically provided by law, the Committee's determination is conclusive on all persons.

4. Effective as of September 7, 1995, Section 11.07 is deleted in

its entirety.

EXHIBIT 10(u)

Capital Cities/ABC, Inc.
Savings & Investment Plan

RESOLVED, that the Capital Cities/ABC, Inc. Savings & Investment Plan be amended as follows, effective January 1, 1989:

1. Section 1.1(aa)(1) is amended to read as follows:

"compensation" means compensation within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.415-2(d)(2) and (3), plus all elective or salary- reduction contributions to a cafeteria plan or deferred arrangement;

2. Section 6.07(c)(1) is amended by deleting "(determined in accordance with Section 401(k)(8)(B) of the Code)" and replacing it with "(determined in accordance with paragraph (3), below)."

3. Section 6.07(c)(1) is amended by adding the following at the end thereof:

The gains or losses on excess contributions shall be determined by multiplying the total annual earnings (positive or negative) for the Plan Year in the Member's Pre-Tax Contribution Account by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the excess contributions and the denominator of which is the value of the Member's Pre-Tax Contribution Account as of the last day of the Plan Year, reduced by any positive earnings (or increased by any negative earnings) credited to the Member's Pre-Tax Contribution Account for the Plan Year.

4. Section 6.07(c) is amended by adding the following immediately after paragraph (2) thereof:

(3) The amount of the excess contributions for a Highly Compensated Employee for a Plan Year is the amount (if any) by which his Pre-Tax Contributions must be reduced in order for his actual deferral ratio to equal the highest permitted deferral ratio under the plan. To calculate the highest permitted deferral ratio under the Plan, the actual deferral ratio of the Highly Compensated Employee with the highest actual deferral ratio is reduced by the amount required to cause his actual deferral ratio to equal the actual deferral ratio of the Highly Compensated Employee with the next highest actual deferral ratio. If a lesser reduction would enable the Plan to satisfy the actual deferral percentage test, only the lesser reduction may be made. This process shall be repeated until the Plan satisfies the


actual deferral percentage test. The highest actual deferral ratio remaining under the Plan after the foregoing leveling process has been completed shall be the highest permitted actual deferral ratio. This paragraph (3) shall be interpreted and applied in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.401(k)-1(f)(2).

5. Section 6.07(e)(1) is amended by deleting "(determined in accordance with Section 401(m)(6)(B))" and replacing it with "(determined in accordance with paragraph (3), below)."

6. Section 6.07(e)(1) is amended by adding the following at the end thereof:

The gains or losses on excess aggregate contributions shall be determined by multiplying the total annual earnings (positive or negative) for the Plan Year in the Member's After-Tax Contribution and Company Matching Accounts by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the excess aggregate contributions and the denominator of which is the value of the Member's After-Tax Contribution and Company Matching Accounts as of the last day of the Plan Year, reduced by any positive earnings (or increased by any negative earnings) credited to the Member's After-Tax Contribution and Matching Contribution Accounts for the Plan Year.

7. Section 6.07(e) is amended by adding the following immediately after paragraph (2) thereof:

(3) The amount of the excess aggregate contributions for a Highly Compensated Employee for a Plan Year is the amount (if any) by which his After-Tax and Company Matching Contributions must be reduced in order for his actual contribution ratio to equal the highest permitted actual contribution ratio under the Plan. To calculate the highest permitted actual contribution ratio under the Plan, the actual contribution ratio of the Highly Compensated Employee with the highest actual contribution ratio is reduced by the amount required to cause his actual contribution ratio to equal the actual contribution ratio of the Highly Compensated Employee with the next highest actual contribution ratio. If a lesser reduction would enable the Plan to satisfy the actual contribution percentage test, only the lesser reduction may be made. This process shall be repeated until the Plan satisfies the actual contribution percentage test. The highest actual contribution ration remaining under the Plan after the foregoing leveling process has been completed shall be the


highest permitted actual contribution ratio. This paragraph
(3) shall be interpreted and applied in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.401(m)-1(e)(2)(i).

And it is further

RESOLVED, that the appropriate officers of this Corporation be and are hereby authorized to take all actions necessary or appropriate to implement the preceding resolutions for each of the above plans.

EXCESS LIABILITY POLICY


INTRODUCTION

Various provisions in this policy restrict coverage. Read the entire policy carefully to determine rights, duties and what is and is not covered.

Throughout this policy the words "you" and "your" refer to the "Named Insured" shown in the declarations. "Named Insured" means the person shown as the Named Insured in the Policy Declarations and that person's spouse, if he or she lives in the same household.

Wherever used in this policy, "we," "us" and "our" refer to the company providing this insurance.


INSURING AGREEMENT

If the Sponsoring Organization pays the premium, and you and the Sponsoring Organization comply with policy terms, we agree with you as follows:

We will pay all sums, more fully defined by the term Net Loss, that the Insured becomes legally obligated to pay for Personal Injury or Property Damage in excess of the Required Underlying Limit or in excess of the Retained Limit, if applicable.

This insurance applies to Personal Injury and Property Damage only if:
1. The Personal Injury or Property Damage is caused by an Occurrence that takes place in the Policy Territory; and

2. The Personal Injury or Property Damage occurs during the policy period.


WHAT WE DO NOT COVER

We do not provide coverage for:

1. Personal Injury or Property Damage caused intentionally by any person. This does not apply to:

(a) any act by an Insured while trying to prevent or eliminate danger in the use of Cars or watercraft; or
(b) while trying to protect persons or property;

2. Personal Injury or Property Damage arising out of the ownership, maintenance or use of any aircraft or hovercraft. This does not apply to:

(a) model airplanes of the hobby type which do not carry people or cargo.
(b) an aircraft chartered with crew by an Insured.

3. Personal Injury or Property Damage arising out of any watercraft you own, rent or use, or is in your care custody or control if it is:

(a) powered by an inboard or inboard/outboard motor of more than 50 horsepower;
(b) a sailing vessel (with or without auxiliary power) 26 feet or more in overall length;
(c) powered by any outboard motor(s), singly or in combination, of more than 25 total horsepower.

This restriction does not apply to such watercraft if they are covered by required underlying liability Insurance. We will not pay for or defend any claims that are, or should be, covered under any kind of maritime statutes.

4. Personal Injury or Property Damage arising out of the use of any Car or watercraft in any prearranged or organized race, speed contest, other competition or practice. However, this exclusion does not apply to sailboats.


EXHIBIT 10(o)

5. Personal Injury or Property damage resulting from any act or failure to act by any Insured as a director or officer of any organization. This does not apply to:

(a) positions in a non-profit organization for which the Insured does not receive pay.
(b) coverage up to $1,000,000 aggregate limit of liability to the Sponsoring Organization, and it's Insureds against loss arising from any claim which is made against the Insureds and reported to the Insurer during the policy term by reason of any Wrongful Act, relative to the administration of this excess policy.

Condition: The Insured agrees to provide the insurer with copies of any written communication sent to members of the Defined Group (as shown on the policy declarations) regarding this excess liability coverage PRIOR to distribution. The Insurer retains the right to review, modify, or amend the communication as deemed appropriate. Failure to conform to this condition shall void any coverage extended.

6. Personal Injury or Property Damage for providing or failing to provide professional services by:

(a) the Insured or;
(b) any person for whom the Insured is legally responsible.

7. Personal injury or Property Damage resulting from your Business Activity or business property. This exclusion does not apply to:

(a) housing property you rent out or are holding for rental for use as a place to live. But such property; must be covered by required underlying limits. By "housing property", we mean 1,2,3, or 4 family houses, and any smaller detached structures on the property such as a garage or storage shed, the grounds, and private roads on the property. Housing property also includes that part of any other dwelling that you are occupying as your residence. Those parts of any housing property that you are renting out or holding for rental as a place to live are not considered business property unless more than three roomers or boarders per family are living there. Parts of housing property that you rent out or hold for rental for use as private garages are not considered business property.
(b) activities which are described in an endorsement attached to this policy;
(c) the use of any Private Passenger Car provided it is not used to carry persons or property for a fee. This exclusion does not apply to a share-the-expense ride.
(d) volunteer work for charity.
(e) incidental business activities which generate less than $5,000 in gross annual revenues.

8. Personal Injury or Property Damage covered by a nuclear energy liability policy or that would have been covered by any such policy if its limit had not been exceeded.

(a) property owned by an Insured.

EXHIBIT 10(o)


DEFENSE OF SUITS NOT COVERED BY OTHER INSURANCE

DEFENSE

We will defend any suit for damages which is not covered by the types of polices described in the Schedule of Underlying Limits of the Declarations or any other available insurance. This applies only if the basis of the suit is covered by this policy. We will settle or defend any claim or suit as we feel appropriate with counsel approved by us. Our duty to settle or defend ends when our limit of liability has been exhausted.

The Insured must reimburse us for any amount within the Retained Limit.

If the law does not permit us to comply with this agreement, we will pay any expense that is incurred with our consent.

SUPPLEMENTARY PAYMENTS

In addition to our limit of liability, we will pay on behalf of an Insured:
1. The cost of bail bonds required because of an occurrence. This includes related traffic law violations, resulting in Bodily Injury or Property Damage covered under this policy.
2. All costs taxed against an Insured.
3. Premiums on appeal bonds and bonds to release attachments in any suit we defend.
4. Interest accruing after a judgment is entered in any suit we defend. Our duty to pay interest ends when we offer to pay that part of the judgment which does not exceed our limit of liability for this coverage.
5. Other reasonable expenses incurred at our request. This does include loss of earnings up to $100 per day or a maximum of $5,000. The amounts we pay for defense, and the other supplementary payments described above, will not reduce the limits of insurance.


LIMITS OF LIABILITY

The limit of liability shown in the Declarations is the amount you have selected and is the maximum amount that we will pay for all damages for Personal Injury and Property Damage from any one Occurrence. This amount is the most we will pay and will not be added to in any way, multiplied by any factor, or otherwise increased for any reason, regardless of the number of:

. Insureds suits brought claims made

. premiums charged or premiums shown, either separately or collectively, in the Declarations, or in any other document attached to or made part of your policy.

. Cars or watercraft owned or involved in the Occurrence.

We will be liable only for the Net Loss resulting from any one Occurrence:

1. in excess of your Required Underlying Limit or
2. if applicable, in excess of your Retained Limit or
3. in excess of valid and collectible insurance, or the Retained Limit, whichever is greater, if the Occurrence arises from the use of a Car or motorcycle which is hired by you or loaned to you for a period of thirty (30) days or less. Any Car or motorcycle hired by you or loaned to you for a period of more than thirty (30) days shall be subject to the Required Underlying Limit for Automobile Liability on the Policy Declarations.
4. in excess of valid and collectible insurance or the Retained Limit, whichever is greater, if the Occurrence arises from the use of a watercraft which is hired by you or loaned to you for a period of thirty (30) days or less. Any watercraft hired by you or loaned to you for a period of more than thirty (30) days shall be subject to the Required Underlying Limit for watercraft liability on the Policy Declarations.


EXHIBIT 10(o)


GENERAL CONDITIONS

DUTIES AFTER AN OCCURRENCE

As soon after an injury or Occurrence takes place that is likely to involve coverage under this policy, we must be notified promptly. You or the Sponsoring Organization should tell us how, when and where the Occurrence happened. You or the Sponsoring Organization should also include the names and address of any injured persons and of any witnesses.

A person seeking any coverage must:

1. cooperate with the underlying insurers, as required by their policies, and with us in the investigation, settlement or defense of any claim or suit.
2. promptly tell us if a claim is made or a suit is brought. That person must also send to us or the underlying insurer copies of any notices of legal papers received concerning the Occurrence.
3. attend hearings and trials.
4. cooperate in securing and giving evidence.
5. cooperate in having witnesses attend.
6. At our request, enforce any right of contribution or indemnity against any person or organization who may be liable to the Insured, because of a loss covered under this policy.

APPEALS

If the Insured or any underlying insurer elects not to appeal a judgment which exceeds the underlying or Retained Limit, we may elect to do so. We shall be responsible for all costs, taxes, expenses and interests on judgments incidental to the appeal.

WHEN LOSS PAYABLE

The Insured may make claim for payment after the Net Loss has been determined in excess of:

1. the Required Underlying Limit or

2. the Retained Limit, if applicable. This will be determined after a trial or by written agreement of the Insured, the claimant and us.

LEGAL ACTION AGAINST US

No legal action shall be brought against us:

1. unless the Insured has fully complied with all the terms of this policy; and
2. until the amount of the Insured's Ultimate Net Loss in excess of the Retained Limit has been finally settled. This amount may be determined either by judgment against the Insured, or by written agreement signed by the Insured, the claimant and us.

Anyone who has secured such a judgment or written agreement may then recover under this policy to the extent of the insurance it provides. No one has any right under this policy to join us as a party to any action against the Insured to determine the Insured's liability; nor shall an Insured or his legal representative sue us.

If any Insured becomes bankrupt or insolvent during the policy period, we shall not be relieved of our obligations. However, the policy, unless cancelled, shall cover the Insured's legal representative for the remainder of the term.

OTHER INSURANCE

Our coverage is excess over any other collectible insurance. This means all insurance which covers you or any Insured, whether it is shown in the Schedule or not. Only when all such insurance has been exhausted will this policy apply. The only insurance over which this policy may not be excess is insurance purchased to apply in excess of the sum of the Retained Limit and the limit of liability of this policy.


EXHIBIT 10(o)

OUR RIGHT TO RECOVER PAYMENT

1. If we make a payment under this policy, we will share recovery rights with the Insured and any underlying insurer. If the person to or for whom payment was made has a right to recover damages from another we shall be subrogated to that right. That person shall:
(a) do whatever is necessary to enable us to exercise our rights and
(b) do nothing after the loss to prejudice them.
2. If we make a payment under this policy and the person to or for whom payment is made recovers damages from another, that person shall hold in trust for us the proceeds of the recovery. That person shall reimburse us to the extent of our payment.
3. Recoveries shall be applied:
(a) first to reimburse any party (including the Insured) that may have been paid any amount in excess of our limit of liability;
(b) then to reimburse us up to the amount paid;
(c) last, to reimburse any interests (including the Insured) that may have been paid any amount either under underlying policies or otherwise.

A different sharing may be made by a written agreement signed by all interested parties. Any expenses incurred in making recoveries shall be shared by interested parties in the ratio of their respective losses.

CHANGES

This policy contains all the agreements between you and us. Its terms may not be changed or waived except by endorsement issued by us. If a change requires a premium adjustment, we will adjust the premium as of the effective date of change.

TRANSFER OF YOUR INTEREST IN THIS POLICY

Your rights and duties under this policy except as provided for the Sponsoring Organization in this policy may not be assigned without our written consent. However, if a Named Insured shown in the Policy Declarations dies, coverage will be provided until the annual anniversary date of the policy for:

1. the surviving spouse if resident in the same household at the time of death; or
2. any member of your household who is covered under this policy at the time of your death, but only while a resident of the premises insured by this policy;
3. the liability of your property and premises, your legal representative; or until a legal representative is appointed and qualified, the person who has proper temporary custody of your property and premises.

IF YOU GO BANKRUPT

Bankruptcy or insolvency of any Insured does not relieve us of any of our obligations under this policy.

LIBERALIZATION

We may extend or broaden the insurance provided under this policy, without premium charge, by amendment or substitution of form. If we do this during the period that this policy is in force or within 45 days prior to its effective date, then the extended or broadened insurance shall apply to your policy.

CONFORMITY WITH STATE STATUTES

If any provision of this policy is in conflict with the laws of the state in which you reside, this policy is amended to conform to the requirements of the laws.

KEEPING REQUIRED UNDERLYING INSURANCE IN FORCE

If you fail to keep Required Underlying policies in force for the full amount of the Required Underlying Limits, we will not provide coverage unless and until the amount of all claims resulting from a single Occurrence exceed the Required Underlying Limits. If any underlying policy has an aggregate limit which is not reinstated after a loss, you must try, within reason, to have coverage reinstated promptly.


EXHIBIT 10(o)

FALSE INFORMATION

We may refuse to make payments under this policy if you or someone on your behalf has given us false information:

1. in the application, or
2. in any other notice regarding underlying insurance.

PREMIUM

The Sponsoring Organization is responsible for the payment of all premiums to us. All return premiums, if any, will be sent to the Sponsoring Organization.

NOTICE OF CANCELLATION OR COVERAGE TERMINATION:

Cancellation:

1. The Sponsoring Organization may cancel the coverage afforded by this policy at any time. To do so, the Sponsoring Organization must notify us in advance of the date cancellation is to take place and return this policy to us.
2. We may cancel this policy at any time by giving the Sponsoring Organization at the address shown on the Policy Declarations written notice:
(a) at least 15 days in advance of the date cancellation is to take effect, if cancellation is for non-payment of premium, or
(b) at least 60 days in advance of the date cancellation is to take effect for any reason other than non-payment of premium.
3. We may deliver any notice of cancellation instead of mailing it. Proof of mailing any notice shall be sufficient proof of notice.
4. If the policy is canceled, a return premium may be due. This refund will be promptly forwarded to the Sponsoring Organization. No refunds will be made by us to individual Named Insureds. Should the policy be canceled, at the request of the Sponsoring Organization, the amount to be refunded will be computed at 90% of pro-rata. However, making or offering to make the refund is not a condition of cancellation.

Termination:

Should an individual for ANY reason no longer qualify as a Named Insured as defined in the Policy Declarations or other provisions of this policy, coverage will cease at the annual anniversary date of the policy or cancellation date whichever comes first. Again, no refunds will be made by us to individual Named Insureds.
