PURPOSE OF MERGER

 Sony Pictures Network has been looking for a collaboration with an

Indian Partner to shape its business since it had been facing tough
competition from Disney-Star collaboration.
 It had been previously in discussion with Reliance owned Viacom
which did not brought any outcome and was called off.
 One of the reasons for executing the merger is that Zee had a larger
network viewership than Sony.
 While Zee Entertainment is still struggling for cash to bankroll its expansion
plans, the merger with Sony Pictures will give the combined entity greater access
to cash flows and capital heft. Currently, as per the relative valuation ratios, Zee
should have a stake of around 61.25% in the merged entity. However, it is Sony
Pictures that will bring in the much needed cash into the combined venture.
