LOEW'S
Loew's Theatres, Inc. ("Loew's") was organized in 1954 under the laws of the State of New York.
Its executive offices are located in New York City. Loew's is principally a holding company, owning
directly or indirectly the capital stock of a number of operating subsidiaries. The principal Loew's
subsidiary, Lorillard Corporation ("Lorillard"), was acquired by Loew's on November 29, 1968, by a
statutory merger of Loew's P. L. Co., Inc. ("LPL"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Loew's, into
Lorillard; upon consummation of that merger, the existence of LPL ceased and Lorillard, the
surviving
corporation, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Loew's. This merger is referred to herein as the
"Loew's-Lorillard Merger." As used herein, the terms "Loew's" and "Company" refer to Loew's
Theatres, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including Lorillard, unless the context otherwise requires.
Loew's operates 14 hotels in the United States and the Caribbean and is engaged in the business of
exhibiting motion pictures in the United States and Canada through owning or operating 110 motion
picture theatres and the related real estate and other facilities connected with such theatres in
the United
States and Canada, owns a combination office-luxury apartment building in New York City and is
constructing another such building in New York City. Loew's has also derived income from its
portfolio
of marketable securities.
Through Lorillard, Loew's is also engaged in the manufacture and sale of cigarettes and other
tobacco products. The business of Loew's conducted through Lorillard and its subsidiaries also
includes
the production and sale of pet food and candy.
USE OF PROCEEDS
Loew's will add to its general corporate funds the proceeds of any exercises of the Warrants and of
the stock options to be received from time to time.

(b) Exclusive of $128 losses charged against reserve for unrealized losses.
(c) Because of the decline in market prices of securities during the latter part of the fiscal year
ended August 31, 1966, a reserve
for unrealized losses of $1,990 (less taxes of $440) was established. The unused portion of the
reserve was restored to income in the
year ended August 31, 1967.
(d) After credit for income taxes of $3,040.
(e) Net of expenses and less income taxes of $5,330.
(f) After giving effect to 2% for I stock split in January 1968 and a 3 for 1 stock split in
November 1968.
(g) As a result of an examination by the Internal Revenue Service of the Company's tax returns for
certain prior years, the lives
of various hotel building fixtures and equipment were lengthened to conform to lives established by
the Service for tax purposes. This
change in lives resulted in reducing depreciation expense by $1,048 and increasing net income by
$528 ($.04 per share) for the year
ended August 31, 1967.

NOTES :
(1) Interest expense on $401,305,000 principal amount of 6%°fo Subordinated Debentures due 1993
issued by Loew's
in exchange for the outstanding common shares of Lorillard and related effect on federal income
taxes.
(2) Assumes that Lorillard stockholders apply Debentures at par as payment upon the exercise of
Warrants at the
assumed exercise price.
(3) After giving effect to the 3 for 1 stock split of Loew's Common Stock effected as of November
27, 1968.
For accounting purposes, the Debentures and Warrants have been assigned a combined value equal
to the principal amount of the Debentures. An Opinion of the Accounting Principles Board of the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, which would require that values be assigned to
the
Debentures and the Warrants based on their 7espective fair market values, was suspended pending
further study by the Board. The Board has recently issued a draft of an Opinion for comment in which
it proposes that the latter accounting be reinstated retroactively.
If a final Opinion taking the position in the above draft is issued, Loew's will record the value
of the Warrants as Additional Paid-in Capital, and charge the portion attributable to discount on
the Deb-
entures to deferred debt discount, to be amortized over the life of the Debentures and the
remainder, if any,
to Excess Cost of Investment in Lorillard over Equity in Net Assets. It is estimated that, in such
event,
the discount to be recorded would be approximately $40,130,000 and the approximate annual
amortization,
before taxes, (computed on the "compound interest" method) would range over the life of the issue
from a_ low of $900,000 in the first year to a high of $2,050,000 in the 13th year, then declining
to
$1,600,000 in the 25th year. In this event, Excess Cost of Investment ir Lorillard over Equity in
Net
Assets would be increased by approximately $63,430,000, Other Assets (deferred debt discount) would
be increased by $40,130,000 and Additional Paid-in Capital would be increased by approximately
$103,560,000 over the amounts which appear in the condensed pro forma combined balance sheet appear-
ing on the following page.

General
BUSINESS OF LOEW'S
Loew's was organized in 1954 under the laws of the State of New York. Its executive offices art
located in New York City. Loew's is principally a holding company, owning directly or indirectly the
capital stock of a number of operating subsidiaries.
Loew's operates 14 hotels in the United States and the Caribbean and is engaged in the business of
exhibiting motion pictures in the United States and Canada through owning or operating 110 motion
picture theatres and the related real estate and other facilities connected with such theatres in
the United
States and Canada, owns a combination office-luxury apartment building in New York City and is con-
structing another such building in New York City. Loew's has also derived income from its portfolio
of
marketable securities. Through Lorillard, Loew's has recently become engaged in the production and
sale
of cigarettes and other tobacco products, candy and pet food.

Sources of Income
During the periods indicated (all of which are prior to Loew's acquisition of Lorillard) Loew's net
income was derived from the sources set forth in the following table. No interest expenses or
general and
administrative expenses have been allocated to securities transactions or dividend income, and
accordingly
income from these sources may be overstated to this extent and income from other sources
correspondingly
understated. In addition, no interest has been charged on intercompany transactions. Hotel
operations and
theatre operations include allocations of rent and other income.

Because of the decline in market prices of securities during the latter part ot the hscal year ended
August 31, 1966, Loew's established a reserve for unrealized losses of $1,990,000. The unused
portion
of the reserve, amounting to $1,862,000, which was no longer required, was restored to income in the
fiscal year ended August 31, 1967. If the excess of cost over market values of the Company's
portfolio
at August 31, 1966 had not required the establishment of this reserve, income from securities
transactions
for the year then ended, as shown in the foregoing table, would have amounted to $1,550,000 (i.e.,
$1,990,000 less taxes of $440,000). The restoration of the unused portion of the reserve in the
fiscal
year ended August 31, 1967, increased income from securities transactions in the year then ended by
$1,422,000 ($1,862,000 less taxes of $440,000) over the amounts which would otherwise have been
reported for that period. Income from securities transactions for the year ended August 31, 1968,
was not
affected. See "Other Interests" for information regarding Loew's transactions in stock of Commercial
Credit Company (now Control Data Corporation).
Hotel Activities and Properties
Loew's now operates 14 hotels of which five are in New York City, one is in Chicago and one is in
San Francisco, four are resort hotels (one in San Juan, Puerto Rico, one in Bal Harbour, Florida,
one
in Paradise Island, Nassau, Bahamas and one in Atlantic City, New Jersey) and three are motor hotels
(in New York City).
A 500 room hotel to be operated by Loew's under a lease agreement is under construction in London,
England and is expected to open during 1970. A new hotel in Washington, D. C., on land owned by
Loew's is in the planning stage, but no date for commercement of construction can presently be set.
Loew's regularly has under review opportunities for expansion of its hotel business.
The following table sets forth information and operational data concerning hotels operated by Loew's
during at least 11 months of the years ended on the dates indicated :

1967 .................... 11 7,449 83.63 21.55
1968 .................... 12 7,887 83.36 23.38
No one hotel property contributed as much as 10oJo to the net earnings of Loew's in the fiscal year
ended
August 31, 1968, although on an interim basis one or more resort hotels may make a greater
contribution
to earnings due to seasonal factors.
The principal sources of revenue of the hotels are rentals of rooms (54.6% in fiscal 1968) and
receipts
from the sale of food and beverages (34.2%). Additional revenues are received from supplemental
services
customarily offered in hotels such as parking, telephone and valet services, from a gaming casino in
the
hotel in Puerto Rico and from rentals of stores and shops comprising parts of the hotels. In
addition to the
usual dining room facilities, the hotels contain specialty restaurants, cocktail lounges and bars.
Some of
the supplemental services and facilities are operated directly by the hotels, while others are
operated by
lessees or concessionaires.
The hotels are subject to mortgage indebtedness aggregating approximately $77,400,000 at interest
rates ranging from 5 jc to 6/ % and maturing from 1970 to 1988. Apartment buildings referred to
below
are subject to mortgages aggregating approximately $11,100,000 at interest rates of 6/ % and 6/ c/`c
and
maturing in 1986 and 1998.

On November 1, 1967 Loew's purchased the fee interest or leasehold interests in 26 of the theatres
in California and the three theatres in Phoenix, Arizona. Loew's has operated the theatres since
that
date and has extensively renovated and refurbished some of them.
Additional theatres are under agreement to be acquired or under construction for operation by
Loew's in Tampa, Florida ; Warren, Ohio ; Natick, Massachusetts ; New York, New York ; Dallas, Texas
;
East Brunswick, New Jersey; and Woodland Hills, California. Since August 31, 1968, Loew's acquired
a theatre in San Francisco, California. The Natick and New York theatres are owned by Loew's and the
balance are leased. Other theatre projects, as to which Loew's has conditional arrangements pending
required court approvals, are in various stages of planning.

Other Interests
Exchange Offer for Cosiz;nercial Credit Conipany Common Stock: In April, 1968, Loew's announced
that it had acquired 1,000,700 shares of common stock of Commercial Credit Company ("Commercial"),
and would make an Exchange Offer to the holders of common stock of Commercial to exchange their
shares for Loew's 5% ~/'o Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 1993, convertible at any time into
Common Stock of Loew's at $30.00 a share. A Registration Statement was thereafter filed which became
effective on June 13, 1968. Loew's acquired through such Exchange Offer, which expired on June 28,
1968, 11,787 shares of Commercial for which it issued $530,400 principal amount of its 5/%
Convertible
Subordinated Debentures due 1993. Control Data Corporation ("Control Data") sold its assets to Com-
mercial for stock, effective on or about August 15, 1968. Subsequent to the expiration of the
Exchange
Offer through November 15, 1968 Loew's sold Commercial stock and Control Data stock for a profit of
approximately $28,500,000 before related taxes and expenses. At November 15, 1968, Loew's held
approximately 5,300 shares of Control Data stock.
Marketable Seciirities: In order to pursue di, ersified acquisition opportunities and for other
purposes
Loew's has maintained a significant cash position. In order to utilize this cash productively
pending
application to such purposes, Loew's has invested a portion of it in marketable securities. The
market
value of these securities was in excess of $48,000,000 (including Control Data stock) on August 31,
1968. Income from transactions in such portfolio and dividends on portfolio securities contributed
significantly to the total income of Loew's in fiscal 1968. There can be no assurance that such
income
will be derived in the future. Loew's does not employ an investment adviser ; its transactions in
market-
able securities are under the direction of one of its employees who receives a fixed salary for such
services. These services are performed under the supervision of the chief executive officer of
Loew's,
who devotes less than 10% of his time to such supervision, and under the general supervision of an
investment committee of the Board of Directors which periodically receives reports of and reviews
such portfolio transactions. Primary emphasis is placed on the possibility of capital appreciation
and
lesser importance is attached to achieving current income. Loew's has on occasion engaged in short
sales, but Loew's had no short sales contracts on August 31, 1968.
Westchester Foraon: Loew's has an 80ofo interest in a partnership which has been designated as
the sponsor of the commercial portion of an Urban Renewal Project Plan by the City of `Vhite Plains,
New York. The project has not been commenced and is subject to fulfillment of various conditions.
See "Management-Certain Transactions .
Tower 53: Loew's operates on leased land located on the northeast corner of Seventh Avenue and
53rd Street, New York Citt. a 39-story combination commercial and apartment building. Construction
was completed in September, 1967. The commercial portion consists of 8 stories completely rented to
J. C. Penney Company, Inc. under a long-term lease and ground floor space leased to Chelsea National
Bank. The residential portion contains 213 apartments, all of which were rented as of August 31,
1968.
Tower 58: Loew's is constructing a 33-story apartment building, comprising 169 apartments, 4
floors of commercial space and an underground garage, located on 57th and 58th Streets, between
Fifth
Avenue and Avenue of the Americas in New York City. Construction is expected to be completed during
1969. Loew's has agreed to sell the leasehold interest nz this building for $5,000,000, with an
obligation
to repurchase such interest payable at the rate of (a) $400,000 per annum plus (b) 50ofo of the net
annual
rental income less the sum of $448,000, for a period of 40 years.
89th & Madison: On August 28, 1968 Loew's sold, at a price in excess of its investment its 50~fo
intere: t in a partnership which is engaged in construction of a luxury apartment complex with
cor.i-
mercial space, located at 89th Street and Madison Avenue, New York City. The purchaser also agreed
to indemnify a subsidiary of Loew's against any liability which may arise under a guaranty of
completion
niade by the subsidiary of Loew's and Loew's partner, jointly and severally, in connection with a
building
loan mortgage of $7,750,000 obtained by the partnership.

Capitol Theatre Property: The land under the Capitol Theatre on Broadway in New York City,
together with adjoining property owned by Loew's has been leased for an initial term of 43 years to
a
developer who is presently demolishing the theatre and buildings on the property and is erecting a
new
office building which will contain no less than 1,000,000 square feet. Concurrent with the lease,
Loew's
purchased the adjoining premises (which is a part of the leased premises) at the northwest corner of
50th Street and Broadway.
Other Pi'operties: Loew's also operates four commercial office buildings located respectively in New
York City ; Syracuse, New York ; Kansas City, Missouri ; and Los Angeles, California ; and owns
approximately 6,700 acres of unimproved land in Brevard and Volusia Counties in Florida.
Competition
Loew's considers its hotels and tneatres to L)e leading establishments in the areas in which they
are
located in respect to desirability of location, size, facilities, physical condition and quality of
service.
The business of providing hotel accommodations and services is highly competitive. There is sub-
stantial competition from other hotels, some of which are owned by local competitors and some of
which
are owned by international or nationwide chains.
The business of motion picture exhibition is also highly competitive. Loew's is one of several
theatre
chains which are nationwide in scope. Loew's operates theatres in certain areas of the United States
which are heavily saturated with the theatres of various national and local exhibitors.
Conseouently,
Loew's faces intense competition from locally signif;cant competitors. In addition to competition
from
other motion picture theatre operators, Loew's film exhibition business is confronted with other
forms of
competition in the entertainment field, including television.
Employee Relations
Loew's employed approximately 9,650 persons as of August 31, 1968. A substantial part of such
personnel are represented by labor unions under separate contracts with many local unions which
expire
at varying times and are then severally renegotiated and renewed. Loew's considers its employee
rela-
tions satisfactory.
The Company has amended the Retirement Plan for Employees of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer
("M-G-M") which covered the employees of the Company and its subsidiaries prior to March 1, 1959.
All "eligible employees", as therein defined, of the Company and its subsiuiaries are entitled to
share
in the benefits provided in the amended Plan.
BUSINESS OF LOEW'S CONDUCTED THROUGH LORILLARD
Products
Cigarettes-Cigarettes represented approximately 90% of Lorillard's consolidated net sales in 1967.
The principal filter cigarette brands of Lorillard are KENT, NEWPORT (menthol), TRUE and TRUE
(menthol), OLD GOLD Filters and SPRING (menthol) and the principal non-filter cigarette brand is OLD
GOLD Straights. In 1967 distribution of CENTURY 100's filter cigarettes was begun in a limited
number of
areas.
Other Tobacco Products-Other tobacco products represented approximately 5ojo of consolidated net
sales in 1967. Lorillard's more important smoking tobacco brands are BRIGGS, UNION LEADER, FRIENDS,
INDIA HOUSE and BURGL'NDY. Its chewing tobacco brands are BEECH-NUT, BAGPIPE and HAVANA
BLOSSOM. Lorillard's little cigar brands are BETWEEN THE ACTS, MADISON and filter-tipped OMEGA, and
it also markets a small cigar brand, ERIK.

Subsidiaries
In February, 1965, a wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary of Lorillard, now known as Usen Products
Company, acquired substantially all of the assets, business and goodwill of Usen Canning Co., a
Massa-
chusetts corporation, and assumed substantially all of its liabilities in exchange for shares of the
Common
Stock of Lorillard. For accounting purposes, the transaction was accounted for in accordance with
the
"pooling of interests" concept. Usen Products Company is a leading producer of canned cat food with
a
national distribution of its Tabby and 3 Little Kittens brands. In August, 1968, a subsidiary of
Usen
Products Company acquired three fishing vessels to supply raw material to its Louisiana cat food
factory.
In April, 1966, a wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary of Lorillard named Reed Candy Company
acquired substantially all of the assets, business and goodwill as a going concern of Reed Candy
Company,
an Illinois corporation, and assumed certain of its liabilities in exchange for shares of the Common
Stock
of Lorillard. For accounting purposes, the transaction was accounted for in accordance with the
"pooling
of interests" concept. Reed Candy Company produces packaged hard candies and rolls under the REED'S
label. In July, 1967, Golden Nugget Candy Company, a Delaware subsidiary of Lorillard (which had
acquired for cash certain assets and the business and goodwill as a going concern of Golden Nugget
Sweets, Ltd., a California corporation, in November, 1965) was merged into Reed Candy Company and
is operated as a division thereof. The Golden Nugget Division, which until recently principally
produced
five-cent nougat candy bar7 with distribution of its B_a Hurrx and Loox bars in eleven Western
states, has
a(lded the five-cent and the ten-cent nougat candy bar SIR to its line and has increased its area of
distribu-
tion to 35 states.
In September, 1968, substantially all the assets of Lorillard's wholly-owned subsidiary, Federal Tin
and Paper Products, Inc., and the factory in Baltimore, Maryland, leased by Lorillard to such
subsidiary
were sold for cash approximately equivalent to the book value of such assets. Such subsidiary
manufac-
tured and sold to Lorillard and to others metal and paper packaging for a variety of products. In
1967
such subsidiary accounted for about 1°fo of consolidated net sales.
Competition
All of Lorillard's products are sold in highly competitive markets.
'."he following table, which sets forth the total unit production of all cigarettes in the United
States
and the total unit sales of all cigarettes by Lorillard, indicates the relative position in the

Lorillard for many years has occupied a leading position in the scrap chewing tobacco field.
Lorillard's
little cigar brands, bIADisoN, BETwEErr TaE ACTS, and filter-tipped OMEGA, accounted for a
substantial
share of the total little cigar market in 1967.
On the basis of information currently available, Lorillard ranks fifth among the major producers of
tobacco products in the country.

Advertising and Sales Promotion
Lorillard's principal brands are advertised and promoted extensively. Advertising and sales promo-
tion expenses, accordingly, have been substantial during the past years, and the policy of Lorillard
is to
continue substantial expenditures for these purposes.
The advertising media used by Lorillard include television, radio, magazines, newspapers, outdoor
advertising and point-of-sale display materials. In addition, Lorillard nationally distributes Gift
Star
coupons on its SPRING, OLD GOLD Filters, and OLD GOLD Straights cigarette brands. Sales promotion
activities are carried on Uy Lorillard through salesmen, by distribution of samples, point-of-sale
display
advertising and personal contract with distributors, retailers and consumers.
Lorillard's as well as the industry's sales of cigarettes declined following the publication in
January
1964 of the report of the Advisory Committee to the Surgeon General, which purported to associate
smoking with a number of diseases. (See "Statement of Consolidated Earnings" herein.)
Pursuant to Federal legislation, effective January 1, 1966, packages of cigarettes are required to
bear
the following statement :"Caution : Cigarette Smoking May Be Hazardous To Your Health." The same
legislation also provided that no statement relating to smolcing and health would be required in
cigarette
advertising, if the packages of such cigarettes were labled in conformity with its provisions. Such
provision with respect to cigarette advertising will terminate, unless extended, on July 1, 1969.
The
Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare is directed by such legislation to transmit a report to
Congress
not later than July 1, 1967 and annually thereafter, concerning (A) current information on the
health
consequences of smoking and (B) such recommendations for legislation as he may deem appropriate. The
Federal Trade Commission is also directed to submit a report to Congress at the same time concerning
(A) the effectiveness of cigarette labeling, (B) current practices and methods of cigarette
advertising and
promotion and (C) such recommendations for legislation as it may deem appropriate. Such reports were
submitted to Congress in 1967 and 1968 with recommendations for legislation. Included in such recom-
mendations are legislation to ban or limit cigarette advertising on television and radio, to require
a revised
caution notice in all advertisements and on all cigarette packages reading "Warning : Cigarette
Smoking
is Dangerous to Health And May Cause Death From Cancer And Other Diseases", and to require a
statement setting forth tar and nicotine content on packages and in all advertising. None of such
recom-
mendations has been enacted.
The nine leading manufacturers of cigarettes in the United States, including Lorillard, voluntarily
established a Cigarette Advertising Code, effective January 1, 1965, which imposed uniform standards
for cigarette advertising for the member companies. Under the Code, no advertising may be used
t:nless it has first been subnr" --d to an indel endent Code Administrator and determined by him to
comply with the Code standards which relate primarily to such matters as health representations and
advertisements directed toward persons under twenty-one years of age. On March 25, 1966, the Federal
Trade Commission announced that a factual statement of the tar and nicotine content in cigarette
smoke
on cigarette labels and advertising would not violate its Cigarette Advertising Guides provided no
col-
lateral representation is made as to reduction or elimination of health hazards. As Lorillard
believed
that the Commission's policy as expressed in such announcement provided a greater opportunity to
develop and market cigarettes low in tar and nicotine content for thos:e consumers who desire such
products, Lorillard resigned from the Code. In so resigning, Lorillard stated that it still intended
to
adhere to the principles underlying the Code's limitations on advertising to youth.
It is the intention of Lorillard to utilize data regarding tar and nicotine content in cigarette
smoke ,o
wherever appropriate in future advertising. v
O-
It is not possible to predict the effect of the foregoing developments on Lorillard's sales and
earnings. EJ

Distribution Methods
Lorillard secures its products distribution through direct sales to jobbers who in turn service
retail
outlets, and through chain store organizations and vending machines operators who purchase their

country to provide for rapid distribution to customers.
International Operations
About 8ofo of Lorillard's total unit sales of cigaretts in 1967 were manufactured in the United
States and exported. Such exports sales were made directly by Lorillard and through two wholly-owned
subsidiaries, P. Lorillard Pan American, Inc., a Western Hemisphere Trade Corporation which services
marketing areas in Central and South America and Canada, and P. Lorillard International S. A., Zug,
Switzerland, which primarily services the marketing areas of Europe and Africa.
License agreements are in effect with thirteen cigarette manufacturers in foreign countries for the
manufacture and sale of Lorillard's products on a royalty basis. P. Lorillard Limited, owned jointly
by
P. Lorillard International S. A. and the stockholders of Lorillard's former licensee and
manufacturer in
Hong Kong, manufactures certain of Lorillard's brands and other cigarettes for markets in Southeast
Asia and the Middle East. In 1968 P. Lorillard (Asia) Limited, a subsidiary of P. Lorillard Limited,
commenced the manufacture and sale of OMEGA little cigars in Thailand under license from Lorillard.
P. Lorillard s.a.r.l., a Luxembourg corporation jointly owned by P. Lorillard International S. A.
and
Lorillard's former licensee and manufacturer in Luxembourg, also manufactures certain of Lorillard's
brands for markets in the Benelux countries, France, Italy and parts of Africa. In 1967, the number
of
cigarettes manufactured abroad by such affiliates and by other licensees exceeded the export unit
sales
from the United States.
In several countries ownership of some of Lorillard's brands is claimed by others and in several
other countries prior registrations of the name "KENT", or a variation thereof, are claimed by
others.
About 11% of Lorillard's net earnings in 1967 were attributable to exports, foreign licensees and
other foreign operations. There are no restrictions as to repatriation of Lorillard's foreign
earnings at
present and, to Lorillard's knowledge, none is anticipated.
Tobacco and Tobacco Prices
The two main classes of tobacco grown in the United States are flue-cured tobacco, grown mostly
in Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Florida; and burley, grown mostly in
Kentucky
and Tennessee. Lorillard purchases flue-cured tohac-) primarily for use in cigarettes and purchases
burley tobacco for use in cigarettes and smoking tobacco. Lorillard also purchases Maryland tobacco
for use in cigarettes and cigars. Most of the tobacco of these classes used by Lorillard is
purchased by
its own buyers and commission buyers at tobacco auctions. Lorillard also purchases various types of
Near Eastern tobacco, most of which is grown in Turkey and Greece.
In addition, Lorillard uses seed leaf tobacco, which is grown mostly in Wisconsin, Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania and Connecticut, in the maufacture of various brands of chewing tobacco and cigars. These
tobaccos are largely purchased directly from the growers by Lorillard representatives.
Due to varying size and quality of the annual crops and other economic factors, tobacco prices have
in the past been subject to wide fluctuations. Among those economic factors are government control
of
acreage-poundage in the flue-cured producing areas and acreage control in the burley areas. These
con-
trols together with support prices substantially affect the market prices of tobacco. In the five
years
ended 1967, the national average auction price per pound for all grades of flue-cured tobacco varied
from a low of 58.0 cents in 1963 to a high of 66.9 cents in 1966. Over the same period, the national
average auction price per pound for all grades of burley leaf increased from a low of 59.2 cents in
1963
to a high of 71.9 cents in 1967. The price paid by Lorillard increased with such trend.
In addition to purchases at auction warehouses, Lorillard purchased substantial quantities of aged
tobacco from various sources, principally cooperatives financed under the Commodity Credit
Corporation
program, to supplement tobacco inventories during those years. Lorillard believes that its current
leaf
inventories are adequately balanced for its present production requirements.
19

In view of the fact that the process of aging tobacco normally requires approximately two years,
Lorillard at all times has on hand large quantities of leaf tobacco. In accordance with generally
recog-
nized trade practice, Lorillard averages the cost of tobacco in inventory and charges to the cost of
cur-
rent production the tobacco used from inventory at the then average cost. Accordingly, increases or
decreases in prices paid for tobacco currently purchased are reflected only partly in current
production
costs.
Borrowings
The cash requirements of Lorillard are usually at a maximum between September and March, because
of heavy leaf buying during this period, and at a mini.num in the summer, prior to such buying
season.
It is customary in the industry to borrow short-term funds in order to finance these seasonal
purchases
of leaf tobacco. During 1967 short-term borrowings ranged between a minimum and maximum of
$5,000,000 and $54,300,000, respectively. Such short-term borrowings on September 16, 1968 were
$38,050,000.
Sales Prices
The list prices per thousand of Lorillard's principal cigarette brands are as follows : 100 mm.
filter,
$9.95 ; and filter and non-filter king-size, crush-proof box and regular size, $9.45. Such figures
reflect a price increase, announced on June 2, 1967, of 75¢ per thousand for 100 mm. filter
cigarettes
and 250 per thousand for filter and non-filter king-size and crush-proof box, filter regular size
and
non-filter regular size cigarettes and a price increase effective November 2, 1968 of 200 per
thousand
for non-filter regular size cigarettes. The prices include Federal excise tax at the rate of $4 per
thousand and are subject to the usual 2% cash discount if paid within ten days.
State and Local Taxes
At September 15, 1968, excise taxes on cigarettes, which are levied upon and paid by the
distributors,
were in effect in forty-nine States and the District of Columbia. Such taxes, many of which have
been
recently increased, range from 2% cents to 15 cents per package of twenty cigarettes. In addition,
many municipal taxing authorities impose taxes on cigarettes.
Employees
On September 15, 1968, Lorillard and it~ subsidiaries had approximately 7,000 employees, of whom
4,300 were hourly rated production and service employees covered by collective bargaining
agreements.
The remaining 2,700 employees were salaried, hourly, or sales employees not covered by collective
bar-
gaining agreements. For more than the last five years Lorillard has not experienced a major inter-
ruption in operations involving any labor disputes.
Collective bargaining agreements for a term of 3 years and covering approximately 4,000 production
employees represented by the Tobacco Workers' International Union of Lorillard's plants in
Greensboro,
North Carolina, Louisville and Lexington, Kentucky, and Danville, Virginia, were entered into in the
Spring of 1968. Included in the settlements were : hourly rate increases, wage adjustments for
certain
jobs, improvements in employee benefits coverage and increased pensions. The projected increased
costs
of these contractual settlements will approximate $2,718,000 for 1968, an additional $882,000 in
1969,
and an additional $987,000 in 1970.
Collective bargaining agreements covering approximately 500 other employees of Lorillard and of
its subsidiaries are scheduled to expire at various dates to February, 1970.
Pursuant to a commitment made in the course of collective bargaining negotiations in 1965, Lorillard
has a deferred Profit Sharing Plan which became effective on January 1, 1968. Contributions under
such plan, which are based upon annual earnings, will be made to a trust fund for the benefit of all
regular and full-time employees of Lorillard and its tobacco subsidiaries, including directors and
officers, who have completed 36 months of continuous service (and to certain seasonal employees) in

termination of employment except discharges for cause as defined in such plan. If such plan had been
in
effect in 1967, approximately 4,400 employees, including nineteen directors and officers, would have
participated therein and payments by Lorillard for 1967 to the trust under such plan would have
aggre-
gated approximately $2,000,000 (deductible for Federal income tax purposes).
Lorillard has separate non-contributory retirement plans for hourly-rated employees. (Reference
is made to note 7 to the Lorillard Financial Statements for further information concerning such
plans.)
Lorillard also has a discretionary bonus program for members of its sales organization and group
life
insurance, disability and major medical insurance plans. Similar plans are also in effect for
employees
of the subsidiary companies.
Property
The properties of Lorillard are employed generally in the processing and storing of tobacco and in
the manufacture of Lorillard's tobacco products and storage of such manufactured products. Its
principal
properties are owned in fee and are located as set forth below. With minor exceptions, all machinery
used
by Lorillard is owned by it.
All properties are in good condition, and the cigarette-making machinery and the cigarette-wrapping
and packing machinery are of modern design and of high-speed type.
Lorillard has plants for manufacture of its tobacco products at Greensboro, North Carolina, and
Louisville, Kentucky. The Greensboro plant is devoted exclusively to the manufacture of cigarettes
and is a modern, one-story air-conditioned building of approximately 700,000 sq. ft. on a plot of
approxi-
mately eighty acres. The Louisville plant, consists of multi-storied buildings totaling about
800,000
sq. ft. of floor space on a plot of about twenty-four acres, is utilized for the manufacture of
cigarettes,
as well as little cigars, chewing tobacco and smoking tobacco.
Lorillard also has facilities for receiving, processing and storing leaf tobacco at Lexington, Ken-
tucky; Danville, Virginia; and Lancaster, Pennylvania. Construction of a research facility to
consist
of about 70,000 sq. ft. at the Greensboro plant at an estimated cost of $3,000,000, was recently
begun.
Usen Products Company has a plant and facilities of approximately 103,600 sq. ft. on a sixty-two
acre plot in Woburn, Massachusetts and in 1966 it commenced operations in a processing and canning
plant of approximately 57,500 sq. ft. on a five-acre plot in Golden Meadow, Louisiana. Reed Candy
Company has plant space of about 70,000 sq. ft. ir. Chicago, Illinois and has recently begun
operations
in a 72,0)0 sq. ft. manufacturing facility on approximately fifty-three acres at Campbellsville,
Kentucky.
The Golden Nugget Division of Reed Candy Company leases a 10,000 sq. ft. plant in San Francisco,
California.
Lorillard leases executive offices at 200 East 42nd Street, New York, New York 10017.
PENDING LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Consent Judgznent. The Consent Judgment entered by the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York on Feburary 6, 1952, in The United States of America v. Loew's
Incor-5orated, et al., represented, as to the M-G-M and Loew's enterprises, the culmination of pro-
ceedings instituted in 1938 by the United States Department of Justice under Section 4 of the
Sherman
Act against the major companies in the United States engaged in the integrated film production,
distribu-
tion and exhibition businesses. Under the Consent Judgment the District Court has retained
jurisdiction
of the cause in order to ensure and enforce compliance with its numerous substantive provisions and
to
entertain motions thereto requesting construction or modification of such provisions.
L oew's was required by the terms of the Consent Judgment to file with the District Court its
consent to be bound by the terms of certain provisions. Loew's may acquire additional theatres only
upon a showing to the court that the acquisition will not unduly restrain competition, unless such
acqui-
sitions are replacements as defined in the Consent Judgment.

Other Antitrust Litigation. Three civil suits for damages, injunctive relief or both for alleged
viola-
tions of Federal antitrust laws were pending on August 31, 1968, against Loew's and other
exhibitors,
producers and distributors of motion pictures, in each of which actions either Loew's or one of its
theatre subsidiaries was named a defendant or in connection with which Loew's will be liable for
a portion of any damages awarded, pursuant to a Reorganization Agreement with M-G-M entered into
as a result of the 1952 Consent Judgment. 117anagement is of the opinion that the outcome of these
suits will
not adversely affect the business or assets of Loew's. The only one of these suits wherein the
amount sought
as damages from all defendants exceeds 15~f'o of the current assets of Loew's and its consolidated
sub-
sidiaries as of August 31, 1968 is Broadway and 96th Street Realty Company, et al., v. Loew's
Incor-
porated, et al., commenced in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New
York on or about June 1, 1953. Although neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is named
as a defendant in this action, Loew's Incorporated (now M-G-M) is sued as an exhibitor as well as
a producer and distributor, and consequently the Company will be liable, pursuant to the Reorganiza-
tion Agreement, for a portion of costs, counsel fees and other expenses of M-G-M and of any damages
awarded against M-G-M. Plaintiffs seek an injunction and treble damages amounting to $14,382,996.
Messrs. Davis Polk & Wardwell, counsel for M-G-M, have expressed the opinion that M-G-M has valid
defenses to this litigation which should be established successfully in court.
Other Litigation. Except as noted above, Loew's is involved in only two legal proceedings which are
not routine in nature. An action was commenced on October 20, 1967 in the Supreme Court of the State
of New York, Count}, of "New York by Ruth Jody, a shareholder of Loew's, naming Loew's as a nominal
defendant and each of its directors as defendants. Onh- the Company and Messrs. Laurence A. Tisch,
Preston R. Tisch and Charles B. Benenson have been served with process. Plaintiff seeks in said
action :
(a) to impress a trust for the benefit of Loew's upon certain real property located in Chicago,
Illinois,
purchased by Laurence A. Tisch, Preston R. Tisch and Charles B. Benenson; (b) an accounting and
damages (from the directors) ; and (c) a judgment directing Laurence A. Tisch, Preston R. Tisch and
Charles B. Benenson to offer Loew's an opportunity to purchase the real property upon the terms and
conditions under which they acquired it. Messrs. Laurence A. Tisch, Preston R. Tisch and Charles B.
Benenson have interposed answers denying the material allegations of the complaint and asserting
various
affirmative defenses.
An action was commenced on May 1, 1968, in the United States District Court for the Northern
District of California, by the lessor of the Mark Hopkins Hotel, claiming that the option granted to
Loew's
in the lease of the Mark Hopkins Hotel to extend the term of the lease from 1989 to 2062 was
included in
the Agreement under a mistake of fact. The lessor does not seek monetary damages. An answer has
been interposed by Loew's denying the material allegations of the complaint. Messrs. Goldstein,
Barceloux
& Goldstein, counsel for Loew's in the litigation, have expressed the opinion that Loew's has
meritorious
defenses to this litigation which should be established successfully in court.
Lorillard. The following summarizes material legal proceedings to which Lorillard is a party and for
which its insurance carriers or other parties have not assumed full responsibility.
By decree dated November 16, 1911, of the Circuit Court of the United States for the Southern
District of New York, in a suit entitled United States o f America v. The American Tobacco Company
and others, under the Sherman Act, each of fourteen corporations, including Lorillard, was
prohibited
from taking specified action, including (1) making transfers of its property to any other of those
corporations, (2) making any agreements of specified types with any other of those corporations,
including agreements relative to the control or management thereof, relative to the price or terms
of
purchase or sale of tobacco or tobacco products and relative to the apportionment among those
corporations
of trade or business either as to customers or localities, (3) holding stock in a corporation whose
stock is also held by another of those corporations and (4) with stated exceptions, requiring a
jobber
to buy another brand or brands from such corporation in order to be able to buy a particular brand.
Lorillard is a defendant, along with one or more other tobacco manufacturers, in three cases which
involve claims that the respective plaintiff or plaintiffs' decedents contracted cancer or other
involvement
of the lung as a result of the use of tobacco products. Damages which range from $9,999 to
$1,208,000
are alleged. None of stich cases has yet been tried.

Hotel, located in Atlantic City, New Jersey, owned by Tisch Hotels, Inc. The Board of Directors of
Loew's in authorizing the agreement adopted the recommendation of Laventhol, Krekstein, Horwath &
Horwath, independent certified public accountants who were retained by the Board to recommend a fair
and reasonable compensation to Loew's for its management services. See "Management-Principal
Shareholders" and "Business of Loew's-Hotel Activities and Properties."

services
to the Company as a real estate consultant (see "Management-Remuneration of Directors and
Officers"),
invited Loew's to participate in the sponsorship of the commercial portion of an Urban Renewal
Project planned by the City of White Plains, New York. The project contemplates the redevel-
opment by the sponsor of approximately 20 acres of land in downtown White Plains, including the con-
struction of approximately 10 office buildings, with parking, promenades, shops and plaza. A
subsidiary

ship to be known as Westchester Forum Associates. The subsidiary is the General Partner and Mr.
Benenson is a Limited Partner. The funds required by the General Partner will be supplied by Loew's.

Purchase Price-Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of Common Stock of
Loew's upon the exercise thereof at a price of $35 per share for the first four years, $37.50 per
share for
the next four years and $40 per share for the final four years. The principal amount of any of the
Debentures (in amounts of $100 or integral multiples thereof) held by a warrant holder may be
applied
by him in payment of the purchase price upon the exercise of said warrant. The warrants will expire
at the close of business on November 29, 1980.
Adjustments to Purchase Price and Nugnber of Shares of Common Stock-The purchase price and
the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable are subject to adjustment in certain events,
including the following : payment of dividends or distribution in shares of Common Stock of the
Company,
subdivision or combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, issuance of rights or
warrants.
distribution of evidences of indebtedness or assets (excluding any cash dividends out of earnings
retained
in the business) or subscription rights.
No adjustment in the purchase price is required unless such adjustment would require an
increase or decrease of at least 1 fo in such price.
Fractional Warrants and Shares-Loew's is not required to issue fractional shares of Common Stock
upon exercise of warrants. As to any final fraction of a share of Common Stock which any person
holding one or more warrant certificates, the rights under which are exercised in the same
transaction,
Loew's is required to pay a cash adjustment therefor based upon the value of the fraction on the
business clay which next precedes the day of exercise.
Stock Options
Loew's Key Employees' Qualified Stock Option Plan-In September, 1968, Loew's adopted a
Key Employees' Qualified Stock Option Plan (the "Loew's Plan"), which was approved by the share-
holders of the Company on November 26, 1968. The Loew's Plan authorizes the granting of options to
purchase a total of 808,905 shares of Common Stock of the Company, subject to adjustment in the
event of
certain changes in the shares of the Company. The shares to be optioned are to be made available
from
either authorized but iulissued shares or shares issued and reacquired by the Company. Options may
be
granted under the Loe«'s Plan up to September 27, 1978.
The Loew's Plan provides that Key Employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, including officers
and employees who are directors of the Company, are eligible to receive options. Holders of 5% or
more
of the shares of Common Stock of the Company and members of the Board of Directors who are not
officers
or employees of the Company are not eligible. The Loew's Plan is administered by a Stock Option
Commit-
tee of the Board of Directors appointed by the Board of Directors. The Committee, or in the case of
employees who are members of the Committee, the Board of Directors, will determine the employees to
whom options will be granted, the number of shares to be optioned to each employee, the dates of the
option
grants, the option price and certain other terms and conditions governing the option. An option
granted
under the Loew's Plan will be exercisable after the expiration of such period or the happening of
such
events as the Committee (or the Board of Directors) may determine. There is no limitation in the
Loew's
Plan with respect to the number of shares available under the Loew's Plan which may be optioned to
any
one employee or group of employees. Except for options substituted for Lorillard options, the option
price
at which shares may be purchased shall be the fair market value of the shares on the date the option
is
granted. The option price must be paid in full at the time of exercise of an option.
Any option granted under the Loew's Plan must expire not later than five years from the date of its
grant. Options will not be transferable, except by will or by the laws or descent and distribution.
If
employment with the Company is terminated for any reason, provision is made in the Loew's Plan for
the
exercise of an option under certain circumstances within specified periods. Shares subject to an
option
which expires or is terminated will again be available for option under the Loew's Plan.
Adjustments may be made in the number, character and price of shares covered by the options in the
event of a corporate reorganization, recapitalization, stock split or stock dividend or other event
affecting
the shares of Common Stock of the Company.
27

The Board of Directors may alter, suspend or discontinue the Loew's Plan. However, the Board may
not, without shareholder approval, increase the number of shares subject to options, or decrease the
option price, except as specified in the preceding paragraph.
All options to be granted under the Loew's Plan are intended to be "qualified stock options" under
Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. For the Section to be applicable, each
employee,
except in the case of death, must hold any stock acquired upon the exercise of an option for three
years from
the date the stock is transferred to him and must be in the employ of the Company or a subsidiary at
all
times from the date of the grant of an option until three months prior to its exercise. If the
conditions of
Section 422 are met, an employee will not realize taxable income upon the exercise of an option ;
any
difference between the option price and the amount received on a subsequent sale of the stock would
be
treated as long-term capital gain or loss; and the Company will not be allowed an income tax
deduction in
connection with the granting or exercise of an opt ion.
Except for the options granted in substitution for options to purchase shares of Common Stock of
Lorillard, no qualified options have, as of November 29, 1968 been granted under the Loew's Plan.
Restricted Stock Option Plan-In October, 1957 Lorillard adopted a Restricted Stock Option
Plan (the "1957 Plan") which provided for the granting to key employees of Lorillard, including
officers,
of restricted stock options (as defined in Section 421 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954) to
acquire
shares of Common Stock of Lorillard. The 1957 Plan expired by its terms on November 1, 1967 and no
further options can be granted thereunder.
The 1957 Plan specifies a maxinntm term for options granted thereunder of ten years f: om the date
of grant and all outstanding options are fc. a Lerm of ten years. Each outstanding option agreement
contains a provision under which the employee agrees to remain in the employ of Lorillard for at
least
two years. Except under specified circumstances, an employee is not permitted, within two years
after
the date upon which an option shall have been exercised with respect to any share, to make a sale or
other disposition of such share within the meaning of Section 425 (c) of the Internal Revenue Code
of
1954, as amended by the Revenue Act of 1964.
As of November 15, 1968, 27 key employees, including 11 officers and directors_ of Lorillard held
options granted on June 20, 1962 to purchase at $43.50 per share an aggregate of 27,800 shares of
Common Stock of Lorillard. Such option price was not less than 95% of the fair market value of the
Common Stock at the time the options were granted. Included in such total were options for a total
of
14,300 shares to persons who were directors or officers, including options held by the following :
Mr.
Bennett 3,000 shares; and Mr. Jordan 1,000 shares.
On November 29, 1968, the effective date of the Loew's-Lorillard Merger, options to purchase
shares of Common Stock of Loew's were substituted for these options to purchase shares of Common
Stock of Lorillard. The number of such substitute options was determined by dividing (a) the product
of the market price of the Lorillard Common Stock on November 29, 1968 multiplied by the number
of shares of Lorillard Common Stock previously covered by such stock options, by (b) one-third
of the market price of the Loew's Common Stock on November 29, 1968 (without giving effect to
the three-for-one stock split which became effective on November 27, 1968).
Stock Purchase, Option and Incentive Plan-In April, 1963, Lorillard adopted a Stock Purchase,
Option and Incentive Plan (the 1963 Plan) under which its Common Stock could be sold through stock
purchase or subscription arrangements or through stock options to key employees, including officers,
of Lorillard.
The stock option provisions under the 1963 Plan are generally similar to those in the 1957 Plan
except that, among other things, the option price must be equal to 100% of the fair market value of
the
Common Stock on the date of grant. As of November 15, 1968, 41 key employees, including 16 officers
and directors, held options under the 1963 Plan to purchase an aggregate of 77,400 shares of Common
Stock of Lorillard. Of these, options for 26,200 shares were granted on July 31, 1963 for a period
of ten
years at the price of $44.75 per share, and options for 51,200 shares were granted on December 1,
1965,

for a period of five years at the price of $45 per share. In each case the option price was not less
than
100oJo of the fair market value of the Common Stock at the time the option was granted. Included in
such options granted in 1963 were options for a total of 14,400 shares to persons who were directors
or officers, including options held by the following: Mr. Bennett 3,000 shares; and Mr. Jordan 2,000
shares. Included in such options granted in 1965 were options for a total of 45,600 shares to
persons
who w ere directors or officers, including options held by the following : Mr. Bennett 7,500 shares
; Mr.
Jordan 5,000 shares; Mr. Levathes 5,000 shares; and Mr. Yellen 10,000 shares.
On November 29, 1968, the effective date of the Loew's-Lorillard Merger, options to purchase shares
of Common Stock of Loew's were substituted for these options to purchase shares of Common Stock of
Lorillard. The number of such substitute options was determined by dividing (a) the product of the
market price of the Lorillard Common Stock on November 29, 1968 multiplied by the number of shares
of Lorillard Common Stock previously covered by such stock options, by (b) one-third of the market
price of the Loew's Common Stock on November 29, 1968 (without giving effect to the three-for-one
stock split which became effective on November 27, 1968).
1967 Stock O ption Plan-In April 1968, the stockholders of Lorillard approved the 1967 Stock
Option Plan (the "1967 Plan") which provides for the granting to key employees of Lorillard,
including
officers, of qualified stock options or non-qualified stock options to acquire shares of Common
Stock of
Lorillard.
The 1967 Plan specifies a maximum term for options granted thereunder of 10 years from the date of
grant. All outstanding qaalified stock options are for a term of 5 years and all outstanding
non-qualified
stock options are for a terul of 10 years. The option price under the 1967 Plan must be equal to at
least
100~f'o of the fair market value of the Common Stock of Lorillard on the date of grant. Each
outstanding
option agreement contains a provision under which the employee agrees to remain in the employ of
Lorillard for at least 2 years or is required to so agree as a condition of the exercise of the
option.
On November 15, 1968, 41 key employees, including 14 officers and directors held qualified stock
options granted on September 20, 1967 to purchase at $49.25 per share an aggregate of 75,500 shares
of
Common Stock of Lorillard. Included in such total were qualified stock options for a total of 56,000
shares
to persons who were directors or officers, including options held by the following: Mr. Bennett,
6,500
shares; Mr. Jordan, 7,500 shares: Mr. Levathes, 6,000 shares and Mr. Yellen, 10,000 shares. In
addition,
on November 15, 1968, 34 key employees, including 2 officers, held non-qualified stock options
granted
on September 20, 1967 to purchase at $49.25 per share an aggregate of 14,500 shares of Common Stock
of Lorillard.
On November 29, 1965. the effective date of the Loew's-Lorillard Merger, options to purchase
shares of Common Stock of Loew's were granted pursuant to the Loew's Plan in substitution for these
qualified options to purchase shares of Common Stock of Lorillard. The number of such substitute
options was determined by dividing (a) the product of the market price of the Lorillard Common
Stock on November 29, 1968 multiplied by the number of shares of Lorillard Common Stock previously
covered by such stock optic.ns, by (b) one-third of the market price of the Loew's Common Stock
on November 29, 1968 (without giving effect to the three-for-one stock split which became effective
on November 27, 1968).
FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION
Upon the exercise of the Warrants by payment of the exercise price in cash, no gain or loss will be
recognized by the holder thereof, whether or not such holder reports gain from the exchange of his
Lorillard Common Stock on the installment method. His tax basis for the shares of Loew's Common
Stock acquired upon such exercise will be his tax basis for the Warrants exercised plus the amount
of
cash paid on the exercise thereof.
There is no clear authority as to whether, or to what extent, gain or loss will be recognized by a
holder of Warrants who elects to malce payment of all or part of the exercise price thereof by the
surrender
of an appropriate face amount of Loew's Debentures. lt is possible that no gain or loss would be
recognized on such surrender or that capital gain or loss would be recognized to the extent of the
29

difference between the holder's tax basis for his Debenture and the face arrLount thereof. It is the
opinion
of Loew's counsel however, that the appropriate tax treatment to a holder of a Loew's Debenture who
surrenders such Debenture on the exercise of any Warrants will be the recognition of capital gain or
loss measured by the difference between his tax basis for the Debenture surrendered and the lower of
(i) the face amount of such Debenture or (ii) the fair market value of such Debenture on the date of
surrender. Counsel for Loew's believes that this treatment will apply whether or not the Debenture
holder reports his gain from the exchange of his Lorillard Common Stock on the installment method.
His basis for the shares of Loew's Common Stock acquired upon exercise of any warrants will, in the
opinion of such counsel, be equal to the sum of: (i) his tax basis for the Debenture surrendered,
increased
by any gain and decreased by any loss recognized upon such surrender, (ii) his tax basis for the
Warrants
exercised, and (iii) the amount of any cash paid on the exercise of such Warrants. It is suggested,
in
view of the absence of clear authority at present, that any Warrant holder who pays a portion of the
Warrant exercise price by the surrender of Debentures consult his own tax adviser at the time for
advice as to the appropriate tax treatment of the transaction.
DESCRIPTION OF COMMON STOCK
Full-Paid Character; Preemptive Rights; Rights on Liquidation. All of the shares of Common
Stock issued and outstanding at the date hereof are, and all of the shares of Common Stock which
may be issued pursuant to exercise of the Warrants and stock options upon issuance thereof will be,
fully-paid and non-assessable. Holders of the Common Stock have no preemptive or subscription
rights, and are entitled to share ratably in all assets of Loew's available for distribution in the
event
of liquidation or dissolution.
Dividend Rights. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to dividends if and when declared by the
Board of Directors. The Board's present policy, subject to availability of funds and other
considerations,
is to declare quarterly dividends of 10¢ per share on the stock as now constituted without giving
effect
to the 3 for 1 stock split ,vhich became effective on November 27, 1968; there is no assurance that
such policy will be continued. The Indenture pursuant to which the 6%oJo Subordinated Debentures
due 1993 are issued, which contains the most restrictive of the Company's funded debt covenants
concerning funds available for dividends provides that so long as any of such Debentures remain
outstanding Loew's will not pay or declare dividends or distributions on its Common Stock (other
than dividends payable in Common Stock) and will not purchase any of its Capital Shares unless the
sum of $5,000,000 and net earnings after August 31, 1968, at least equals the sum of such dividends
and distributions and purchases ; provided, however, that the amount spent for stock purchases is
reduced for this purpose by the amount received from stock sales, the surrender of Debentures to
exercise Warrants and certain other credits.
Voting Rights: Nosz-Cuircvlative Voting. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for
each share held and have the sole right to vote for the election of directors and on all other
matters
requiring shareholders' action. The Common Stock has non-cumulative voting rights. This means that
the holders of more than 50 fo of the Common Stock voting for the election of directors can elect
100oJo
of the directors if they choose to do so, and, in such event, the holders of the remaining less than
50 fo
of the shares voting for the election of directors will not be able to elect any person or persons
to the
Board of Directors.
Miscellaneous. The foregoing summary of the terms of the Common Stock does not purport to be
complete or to give full effect to pertinent statutory or common law, and is qualified in its
entirety by
reference to the applicable provisions of the Amended Restated Certificate of Incorporation and
By-Laws.
The outstanding Common Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and said Exchange has
listed, subject to official notice of issuance, the Common Stock which may be issued upon exercise
of the
Warrants and the stock options. The Warrants are listed on the American Stock Exchange. First
National
City Bank, 55 Wall Street, New York, New York 10005, is the Transfer Agent for the Common Stock
and Bankers Trust Company, 485 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York 10015, is the Registrar.
Loew's furnishes its shareholders with annual reports which contain certified financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

sheet of that company and subsidiaries as of August 31, 1968, the related statements of income and
earnings retained in the business for the three years then ended and the Summary of Earnings for the

stand-
ards, and accordingly included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing

In our opinion. subject to the approval by the shareholders of Loew's Theatres, Inc. of the 3 for 1
split of the Company's Common Stock referred to in Note 2 of Notes to Financial Statements, the

fairly the financial position of Loew's Theatres, Inc. and the consolidated financial position of
that com-
pany and subsidiaries at August 31, 1968 and the results of their operations for the three years
then ended,

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. PRINCiI'LES OF CONSOLIDATION:
0
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all wholly owned and majority owned
subsidiaries. The accounts of four Canadian subsidiaries have been translated at current or other
appropriate 'rates of exchange.
The principal subsidiaries acquired during the period subsequent to August 31, 1965 were :
Loew's Bahamas Hotel Limited and Loew's Chicago Hotel Corp. in the year ended August 31,
1966; and
Loew's San Francisco Hotel Corp. in the year ended August 31, 1967.
Approximately 19 other insignificant companies were acquired and approximately 12 insignificant com-
panies were liquidated during this period.
The Company's equity in the net book assets of consolidated subsidiaries at August 31, 1968
exceeded its net investments in and advances to such subsidiaries by $41,729,327 after intercompany
eliminations. In consolidation, this amount, representing the Company's equity in net undistributed
earnings of such subsidiaries, is included in earnings retained in the business.
2. LORILLARD MERGER:
On November 26, 1968, the Company's shareholders approved proposals (a) to authorize issuance,
in exchange for all the outstanding common stock of Lorillard, of approximately $401,305,000 of 6% %
Subordinated Debentures due 1993 and Warrants to purchase approximately 6,477,357 shares of the Com-
pany's Common Stock, (b) to authorize an increase in the number of shares of the Company's Common
Stock from 15,000,000 to 30,000,000 and to split each share three for one, and (c) to establish an
em-
ployees' qualified stock option plan.
The merger with Lorillard became effective on November 29, 1968.
3. FIaED ASSETS :
Fixed assets are stated at cost, except certain land and a building which are carried at 1925
appraisals. The excess of such appraisals over cost, after deducting related depreciation charged to
income, was $2,827,849 at August 31, 1968.
It is the general policy of the companies to provide for depreciation of property, plant, and
equipment on the straight-line method over the estimated service lives of individual units or
classes
of properties.
The principal service lives used in computing provisions for depreciation are as follows :
Property Years
Buildings ................................ 40
Hotel building fixtures ..................... 10 to 40
Hotel equipment ........................... 4 to 12
Theatre and other equipment ................ 10
L.easeholds are amortized over the terms of the related leases (including optional renewal periods
"here appropriate) or the lives of improvements, if less.
F-5

LOEW'S THEATRES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to income as incurred. Major renewals and
betterments are capitalized.
When a significant operating unit is disposed of in its entirety, the cost and accunullated depre-
ciation are removed from the accounts and profit or loss on such disposal is recognized in the
accounts
at that time. Fully depreciated equipment is eliminated from the asset and depreciation allowance
accounts without regard to whether such assets are still in use. Proceeds of equipment sold are
generally
credited to income.
4. LONG-TERM DEBT :
Aggregate maturities of long-term debt at August 31. 1968 were as follows :
Due within one year ..................... $ 6,702,871
Maturities during years ending August 31,
1970 ................................ $ 5,324,545
1971 ................................ 5,993,943

Subsequent maturities through 1998 ... .. .. . 80,951,792
Due after one year .......................
$109,078,864
Interest rates on long-term debt range principally from 5%ofo to 7%ofo per annum. On three obliga-
tions which are not currently interest-bearing, interest has been imputed at 6% per annum.
5. OTHER NONCURRENT LIABILITIES:
This includes $821,167 for deferred compensation payable more than one year after August 31, i968.
6. DEFERRED INCOME:
This includes unamortized investment tax credits of $740,608, which are being reflected in income
over the service lives of the related facilities.
7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES:
Minimum rentals payable by the Company and certain Subsidiaries under leases expiring more than
three years after August 31, 1968 (exclusive of taxes and other charges by the lessees and

11. EARNINGS RETAINED IN THE .BUSINESS :
Under the terms of one of the Company's loan agreements, approximately $48,000,000 of retained
earnings at August 31, 1968 was available for cash dividends. Under the indenture for the 6% %
subordinated debentures (see Note 2), the sum of $5,000,000 of retained earnings at August 31, 1968
plus net earnings after August 31, 1968 are available for cash dividends.
12. UNITED STATES INCObiE TAXES :
The Company and its includible subsidiaries file consolidated federal income tax returns. Federal
income taxes for the Company (separately) have been accrued at corporate rates on the basis of book
income before taxes, reduced by the Company's share of benefits arising from the consolidated
return.
Deferred income taxes charged against consolidated income relate principally to the excess of accel-
erated depreciation deducted for tax purposes over normal depreciation provided in the financial
state-
ments.
13. SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS:
Because of the decline in market prices of securities during the latter part of the fiscal year
ended
August 31, 1966, the Company and subsidiaries (consolidated) established as a reserve against the
cost
of marketable securities the entire net capital gain of $1,990,122 realized during that year. The
Company
(separately) established a $400,972 reserve against the cost of marketable securities, equivalent to
the
excess of the cost of its marketable securities over corresponding market prices at August 31, 1966.
The unused portions of the reserves for decline in market prices of securities established at August
31, 1966, amounting to $1,862,100 for the Company and subsidiaries (consolidated) and $400,972 for
the Company (separately), were reversed to iucome in the year ended August 31, 1967.
Costs of securities sold are determined on the identified certificate basis.
14. RETIREhIENT PLAN:
The retirement plan provides retirement benefits for eligible employees on a noncontributory basis
and also provides for additional benefits on a voluntary contributory basis. Eligibility is
restricted to
certain employees who have been in the employ of the companies for five years, and normal retirement
age is 65. All contributions by the companies anc' voluntary contributions by employees are paid to
a
corporate trustee for investment and payment of benefits pursuant to the plan. The plan is voluntary
and
may be discontinued at the option of the companies.
As the result of substantial actuarial gains, no provisions for contributions to the employees'
retire-
ment trust have been made since August 31, 1961. The Kwasha Lipton Company, Consulting Actuaries,
report $21,466 as the plan's overfunded actuarial reserve as of February 29, 1968.

LORILLARD CORPORATION :
We have examined the consolidated balance sheet of Lorillard Corporation (successor to P. Lorillard
Company) and subsidiary companies as of December 31, 1967 and the related statement of consolidated
earnings for the five full years then ended and statement of consolidated surplus for the three full
years then
ended. Our examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and
accord-
ingly included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we
considered
necessary in the circumstances.
In our opinion, the above-mentioned consolidated balance sheet and statements of consolidated earn-
ings and consolidated surplus present fairly the financial position of the companies at December 31,
1967
and the results of their operations for the stated years then ended, in conformity with generally
accepted
accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.

1. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION, ACQUISITIONS AND GENERAL MATTERS
The financial statements include the Company and its subsidiary companies all of which are wholly-
owned. The financial statements of the Swiss subsidiary were translated into United States currency
at
the approximate rate of exchange prevailing on the date of the balance sheet, there having been no
material
fluctuation in such rate since organization of the subsidiary. At December 31, 1967 and June 30,
1968 the
net assets of the subsidiaries exceeded the amount at which the investments are carried on the books
of
the Company by $16,565,304 and $17,614,880, respectively, which amounts represent undistributed
earnings since date of acquisition or organization and have been included in earnings retained for
use in
the business.
On February 24, 1965 and April 5, 1966, respectively, wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company
acquired the businesses and substantially all the assets and assumed substantially all the
liabilities of Usen
Canning Co. (Usen) and Reed Candy Company (Reed.). In consideration, the Company issued to Usen
156,250 shares of its common stock (of which 74,056 were unissued shares and 82,194 were treasury
shares) and to Reed 74,913 shares of its common treasury stock. These transactions have been
accounted
for as poolings of interests and, accordingly, in the accompanying financial statements the accounts
of Usen
and Reed have been combined with those of the Company. The excess of the par value of unissued
shares
plus the cost of treasury shares issued and the expenses of pooling over the stated value of Usen's
capital
stock was charged in part ($999,280) to additional paid-in capital and in part ($2,514,461) to
retained
earnings in the year ended December 31, 1964; the excess of the cost of the treasury shares issued
plus
expenses of pooling over the stated value of Reed's capital stock has been charged to additional
paid-in
capital and retained earnings as shown in the accompanying statement of consolidated surplus.
On November 8, 1965, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company purchased the business and certain
assets of Golden Nugget Sweets, Ltd. Of the total cost, $2,157,421 was allocated to trade-marks and
goodwill.
On April 9, 1968 P. Lorillard Company (a New Jersey corporation) was merged into Lorillard
Corporation (a Delaware corporation), the surviving corporation. As a part of the merger the 98,000
ollt5tanding shares of 7% cumulative preferred stock of P. Lorillard Company were converted into
$13,720,000 principal amount of 6%% subordinated debentures due April 1, 1993 of Lorillard
Corporation
aud each issued share of common stock, par value $5 per share, of P. Lorillard Company was converted
into a share of coinmon stock, par value $5 per share, of Lorillard Corporation. The excess of the
principal
amount of the debentures over the par value of the preferred stock, amounting to $3,920,000, was
charged
to retained earnings.
On September 9, 1968, substantially all the assets of a subsidiary, Federal Tin and Paper Products,
Inc., subject to certain liabilities assumed by the buyer, and certain real estate owned by the
Company,
were sold for $3,000,000, subject to adjustment upon completion of an audit of Federal Tin and Paper
Products, Inc. In the opinion of the Company, such sale will have no material effect upon the
consolidated
financial position or results of operations of the Company.
2. I N VENTORIES
The entire inventory of leaf tobacco has been classified as a current asset in accordance with a
generally recognized trade practice although, due to the duration of aging processes, the tobacco on
hand includes requirements beyond the period of one year. It is not practicable to determine the
amount
not realizable within one year.
Inventories at the beginning and end of each of the years 1965-1967, inclusive and at June 30,
1968, priced at average cost, were as follows: December 31, 1964, $256,802,654; 1965, $252,458,806;
1966, $241,390,612 ; 1967, $262,208,083 ; and June 30, 1968, $243,835,156.
3. DEPRECIATION
It is the policy of the companies to provide for depreciation based on the estimated useful lives
and cost of the various classes of property. With the exception of certain equipment (cost at
December
F-15

LORILLARD CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-Continued
31, 1967 and June 30, 1968 approximately $4,900,000), depreciation on which is provided on a unit
of production basis, the provisions for depreciation have been computed on the straight-line method
at, with minor exceptions, the following annual rates : buildings and building equipment-principal
items, 2°fo, other items, 5%; machinery and equipment-principal items, 5ofo, other items, 10% and
2000 ; office tnachinery-10oJo to 25oJo ; automobiles, 25oJo.
Upon the retirement or other disposition of property. accumulated depreciation is charged with
the amount therein applicable to such property, and profit or .;)ss is taken up in earnings.
Maintenance, repairs, and renewals are charged to earnings as incurred. Betterments are capitalized.
4. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
For Federal income tax purposes, alternative methods of computing depreciation are used for
certain assets. The Federal tax reduction resulting from the use of such alternative methods has
been
compensated in the accompanying statement of consolidated earnings by charges for deferred Federal
income tax. At December 31, 1967 and June 30, 1968 the accumulated reserves for deferred Federal
income tax (arising from the use of alternative methods of computing depreciation for tax purposes
for the years 1957-1967 and for the six month period ended June 30, 1968) amounted to $5,018,746
and $5,114,473, respectively. From this amount the prepaid Federal income tax applicable to the
reserves for employee benefits has been deducted. leaving net credit balances at December 31, 1967
and June 30, 1968 of $1,225,800 and $1,048,712, respectively, as shown in the consolidated balance
sheet.
The Federal income tax liabilities of the companies have been settled up to and including 1958.
While the liabilities for subsequent years are subject to final determination, the amount provided
in
the consolidated balance sheet is believed to be adequate to cover any additional assessments which
may be made by the Treasury Department.
The companies have followed the practice of reducing their provision for Federal income tax by
the estimated permanent tax saving resulting from the investment credit, the amounts of which have
not been material.
5. LONG-TERM DEBT
The sinking fund requirements under the debenture indentures during each of the five years ending
June 30, 1973, less debentures held by the Company for sinking fund purposes, are as follows : 1969-
$1,265,000; 1970, 1971, 1972 and 1973-$2,625,000.
Covenants limiting the payment of dividends on common stock and the purchase, redemption, or
retirement of such stock are contained in the debenture indentures. Under the most restrictive of
these
covenants the amount which could have been expended for the foregoing purposes at December 31, 1967
and June 30, 1968 was limited to approximately $87,000,000 and $78,000,000, respectively. The
covenants also prohibit the Company from creating, guaranteeing or assuming any non-subordinated
long-term debt if, after giving effect to such additional debt, the excess of consolidated tangible
assets
over consolidated current liabilities shall be less than 200°fo of consolidated funded debt (as
defined). At
December 31, 1967 and June 30, 1968 consolidated tangible assets less consolidated current
liabilities
exceeded 200% of such consolidated funded debt by $164,000,000 and $171,000,000, respectively.
6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
At December 31, 1967 and June 30, 1968 outstanding commitments for the purchase of property,
plant, and equipment amounted to approximately $3,173,000 and $4,917,000, respectively.
At December 31, 1967 and June 30, 1968 the Company was a defendant, along with one or more
other tobacco manufacturers, in three cases which involve claims that the respective plaintiff or
plaintiffs'
decedents contracted cancer or other involven~ent of the Iung as a restut of the use of tobacco
product-~.
Damages which range from $9,999 to $1,208,000 in such cases are alleged, none of which has yet been
trHed.

7. RETIREMENT PLANS
The Company and its subsidiaries have non-contributory retirement plans for eligible salaried and
production employees. The companies' policy is to fund the accrued pension cost relating to all
salaried
employee plans and to maintain reserves for the accrued pension cost relating to production employee
plans. Retirement plan costs charged to earnings ($2,332,040 in 1967 and $1,379,703 in the six
months ended June 30, 1968) represent as to the funded plans, normal cost plus amortization over 20
years of unfunded prior service cost and as to the unfunded plans, normal cost plus interest on
unfunded
prior service cost. In prior years, the retirement plan costs of the unfunded plans were based upon
the
value of benefits for employees becoming eligible to retire during the year; the change to a normal
cost
plus interest basis did not have a significant effect on net earnings. An independent actuary has
estimated
that the unfunded past service cost applicable to the retirement plans at December 31, 1967
approximated
$10,966,000.
8. INCENTIVE COMPENSATION
Incentive compensation for officers and key personnel pa~able under the By-Laws (based on
consolidated income, as defined), was as follows : 1965, $1,519,668 ; 1966, $1,884,825 ; 1967,
$2,078,496.
During the six months ended June 30, 1968 $947,000 was provided for incentive ec _npensation.
9. PROFIT SHARING PLAN
The Profit Sharing Plan of the Company, approved by stockholders on April 4, 1967, became effective
January 1, 1968. During the six months ended June 30, 1968, $999,000 was provided for the con-
tributions (based upon consolidated income, as defined) to be made under such plan.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
We have examined the balance sheet of Loew's Theatres, Inc. and the consolidated balance sheet
of the Company and subsidiaries as of August 31, 1968, the related statements of income and earnings
retained in the business for the year then ended, and the supporting schedules. Our examination was
made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and accordingly included such tests
of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the
circumstances.
In our opinion, the supporting schedules at August 31, 1968 and for the year then ended (pages S-1
to S-10, inclusive) present fairly the information required to be set forth therein, in conformity
with
generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding
