      DREAMWORKSANIMATIONSKG,INC. NOTESTOCONSOLIDATEDFINANCIALSTATEMENTS—(Continued) the film (of which $34.9 million had been paid as of December 31, 2004). In connection with the acquisition, DreamWorks Studios entered into loan agreements for the financing of the production costs of up to approximately $27.8 million. Of this amount, $21.6 million had been borrowed at December 31, 2004. Because the Company is obligated to acquire this film upon its completion in 2005, the $21.6 million borrowed as of December 31, 2004 plus the amount the Company is obligated to fund are included in this table. (3) The Company operates an animation campus in Glendale, California. The lease on the property, which was originally acquired for $76.5 million, qualified as an operating lease. In March 2002, the lease was renegotiated through the creation of a special-purpose entity that acquired the property for $73.0 million and leased the facility to the Company for a five-year term. In accordance with the provisions of FIN 46, the asset, debt and non-controlling interest has been included on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2004. The Company expects to refinance this obligation prior to its maturity. (4) In connection with the Separation, the Company assumed approximately $75 million of indebtedness related to advances that Universal Studios made to DreamWorks Studios to fund animated motion pictures. Universal Studios advanced DreamWorks Studios amounts based on anticipated future receipts from films that DreamWorks Studios is expected to release, and DreamWorks Studios allocated to the Company $87.2 million of this advance on a historical basis. Of this allocation, $12.2 million relates to a 2001 animated film advance that was initially allocated but, as part of the Separation, was not assumed by the Company. (5) In connection with the Separation, the Company assumed $80 million of subordinated debt that DreamWorks Studios incurred from HBO in December 2000, $30 million of which was repaid with proceeds from the Company’s initial public offering. (6) Includes $0.4 million of imputed interest. From time to time, DreamWorks Studios is involved in various claims, legal proceedings and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that adverse decisions in any pending or threatened proceedings, or any amount which the Company might be required to pay by reason thereof, would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or operating results of the Company. 8. Employee Benefits Plan 401(k) Plans Effective at the Separation, the Company sponsors a defined contribution retirement plan (the “Plan”) under provisions of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”). Substantially all employees not covered by collective bargaining agreements are eligible to participate in the Plan. The maximum contribution for the employer match is equal to 50% of the employees’ contribution, up to 4% of their compensation, as limited by Sec. 415 of the IRC. Prior to the Separation, Company employees participated in a similar plan sponsored by DreamWorksStudios. Effective at the Separation, the costs of the employer match, as well as all third party costs of administering the Plan are paid directly by the Company. The management of the Plan is provided by DreamWorks Studios, for which the Company reimburses DreamWorks Studios pursuant to the Services Agreement. Prior to the Separation, the costs of the employer match, as well as the costs of administration, were included in DreamWorks Studios’ fringe benefit allocation to the Company. Employee Equity Plans Prior to the Separation, the Company participated in DreamWorks Studios’ Employee Equity Participation Plan (the “Equity Plan”). DreamWorks Studios granted to employees or consultants either actual or phantom shares of stock (“Shares”). For the year ended December 31, 2002, compensation expense attributable to the Company’s employees pursuant to the Equity Plan of $0.3 million was allocated to the Company. During the year ended December 31, 2003 and 2004, DreamWorks Studios determined that the fair market value of the 88
