See accompanying notes.

PANAVISION INC.


NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)


1. BASIS OF PREPARATION

The Company is an indirect majority-owned subsidiary of Mafco Holdings Inc.
("Mafco Holdings" or "Parent"), a corporation whose sole stockholder is Ronald
O. Perelman. All of the Company's operations are conducted through its
subsidiaries.

As also described in Note 2 of the Company's 2002 Annual Report on Form
10-K, on April 19, 2001, M&F Worldwide Corp. ("M&F Worldwide") purchased from PX
Holding Corporation ("PX Holding"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Mafco Holdings,
all 7,320,225 shares (the "Purchased Shares") of the Company's Common Stock held
by PX Holding (the "M&F Purchase"). The Purchased Shares constituted
approximately 83.5% of the Company's then outstanding Common Stock. As a result
of the purchase, Mafco Holdings increased its indirect interest in M&F Worldwide
to a majority position.

During 2001, certain shareholders of M&F Worldwide brought lawsuits against
M&F Worldwide and its directors challenging the M&F Purchase as an alleged
breach of fiduciary duty and sought, among other things, rescission of the M&F
Purchase transaction. One of the shareholders dismissed his lawsuit pursuant to
a settlement. On December 3, 2002, the remaining parties to the litigation
consummated a settlement of the litigation (the "M&F Settlement"), whereby Mafco
Holdings acquired, through PX Holding, (1) the shares of the Company's Common
Stock that M&F Worldwide had purchased in April 2001, (2) the shares of the
Company's Series A Preferred Stock that M&F Worldwide acquired in December of
2001, (3) the Existing Notes that a subsidiary of M&F Worldwide acquired in
November of 2001, and (4) the Las Palmas Note in the amount of $6.7 million that
the Company issued to M&F Worldwide on its acquisition of the shares of Las
Palmas (see Note 14 of the Company's 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K). In
addition, all agreements which M&F Worldwide entered into in connection with the
M&F Purchase and the December 2001 issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock were
terminated.

Thus, after the consummation of the M&F Settlement, the Company ceased
being a subsidiary of M&F Worldwide. Mafco Holdings, after giving effect to the
M&F Settlement, indirectly controls 85.7% of the voting shares of the Company.
The M&F Settlement did not have a significant impact on the recorded values of
the Company's assets or liabilities since the transaction was between parties
under common control.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States for interim financial information and with the instructions for
Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all
of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of
operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the fiscal year. The condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. All terms used but not defined
elsewhere herein have the meaning ascribed to them in the Company's 2002 Annual
Report on Form 10-K.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Panavision and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
amounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Certain amounts in previously issued financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the 2003 presentation.

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


3. USE OF ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial
statements and accompanying notes, including the collectibility of receivables
and the realizability of assets such as fixed assets and deferred taxes. Actual
results could differ from such estimates.

4. LONG-TERM DEBT

On June 4, 1998, the Company entered into a credit agreement with a
syndicate of lenders (as subsequently amended on September 30, 1999, March 15,
2002, June 14, 2002, September 30, 2002 and March 27, 2003, the "Existing Credit
Agreement").

Effective September 30, 2002, the Company amended the Existing Credit
Agreement to, among other things, reduce the minimum EBITDA the Company was
required to achieve for the four fiscal quarters ending September 30, 2002 (the
"September Amendment"). This provision of the September Amendment expired on
March 28, 2003.

The September Amendment also provided that it would be an event of default
if (i) by February 1, 2003, an affiliate of the Company failed to make a cash
equity contribution to the Company in the amount of the interest due February 1,
2003 on Existing Notes held by affiliates of the Company on that date or (ii) by
March 28, 2003, the Existing Credit Agreement was not refinanced or the debt of
the Company reduced, in either case by an amount acceptable to the lenders under
the Existing Credit Agreement, or an affiliate of the Company failed to make a
cash equity contribution to the Company in the amount of the interest which was
due on February 1, 2003 on Existing Notes held by non-affiliates of the Company
on that date. On January 31, 2003, Mafco Holdings made the required cash equity
contribution to the Company in the amount of the interest due February 1, 2003
on the Existing Notes held by affiliates of the Company on that date in exchange
for 4,372 shares of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock.

On February 3, 2003, Mafco Holdings agreed to extend to the Company a
revolving line of credit in the amount of $4.0 million, at the same rate as
provided for in the Revolving Facility pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement
(the "Mafco Line").

9


PANAVISION INC.


NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)


On March 27, 2003, the Company amended its Existing Credit Agreement to,
among other things, decrease minimum EBITDA for the four fiscal quarters ended
December 31, 2002, specify the minimum EBITDA, decrease the minimum interest
coverage ratio and increase the maximum leverage ratio required for the four
fiscal quarters ending on each of March 31, 2003, June 30, 2003, September 30,
2003 and December 31, 2003 (the "March 2003 Amendment"). Absent this amendment,
the Company would not have been in compliance with financial covenants for the
four fiscal quarters ended December 31, 2002. Under the March 2003 Amendment,
certain lenders also agreed to defer amortization payments otherwise due in 2003
to March 31, 2004 such that amortization payments required of the Company in
2003 will be reduced by $20.0 million. The Company agreed to pay, among other
fees, $2.0 million, representing 10% of the amount of deferred amortization, at
closing.

In connection with the March 2003 Amendment, Mafco Holdings contributed
$90,860,000 principal amount of Existing Notes and $10.0 million in cash to the
Company in exchange for 102,220 shares of Series C Cumulative Pay-in-Kind
Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the "Series C
Preferred Stock"), which it contributed to the capital of PX Holding, and PX
Holding contributed to the Company 53,571 shares of Series B Preferred Stock in
exchange for 57,424 shares of Series C Preferred Stock. In connection with the
contribution of Existing Notes by the majority shareholder, deferred tax assets
associated with these Existing Notes of $18.0 million were charged against
additional paid-in capital. Due to the related party nature of this transaction,
the Company did not record any gain or loss in the first quarter of 2003. The
Series C Preferred Stock is non-voting; has a liquidation preference of $1,000
per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends; and entitles the holder to
cumulative dividends at a rate of 10% per annum regardless of whether declared
or earned. Additionally, the Series C Preferred Stock is subject to redemption
in certain circumstances upon a change of control. Mafco Holdings also agreed to
a maturity date of March 31, 2004 on the Mafco Line.

Before March 31, 2004, in order to provide the Company with additional
financial and operating flexibility and to improve its overall capital
structure, the Company intends to seek other sources of financing on terms more
favorable to the Company than under the Existing Credit Agreement, including
dates of maturity, amortization schedules and/or interest rates. However, there
can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure alternate financing
on such favorable terms by March 31, 2004. While the lenders under the Existing
Credit Agreement have accommodated the Company to date and the Company believes
that the lenders will continue to do so, there can be no assurance that they
will continue to do so in March 2004 in the event alternate financing is not
secured.

5. PREFERRED STOCK TRANSACTIONS

In connection with the March 2003 Amendment, as discussed in Note 4 above,
all Series B Preferred Stock was exchanged for Series C Preferred Stock. The
Series C Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, is non-voting; has a
liquidation preference of $1,000 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends;
and entitles the holder to cumulative dividends at a rate of 10% per annum
regardless of whether declared or earned. Additionally, the Series C Preferred
Stock is subject to redemption in certain circumstances upon a change of
control.

6. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No
146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities" ("SFAS
146"). SFAS 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs
associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task
Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee
Termination Benefits and

10


PANAVISION INC.


NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)


Other Costs to Exit an Activity" (including Certain Costs Incurred in a
Restructuring). SFAS 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an
exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. SFAS 146
is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December
31, 2002 and did not have a material impact on the Company's financial
statements.

In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's
Accounting and Disclosure Requirement for Guarantees, Including Indirect
Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others" ("FIN 45"). FIN 45 elaborates on the
disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial
statements about its obligations under certain guarantees it has issued. It also
clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a
guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in
issuing the guarantee. The disclosure requirements are effective for financial
statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. The
recognition and measurement provisions of FIN 45 are applicable on a prospective
basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The application
of FIN 45 did not materially impact the financial condition, results of
operations, and cash flows of the Company.

In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation
of Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46"). FIN 46 provides guidance on the
identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other
than through voting rights, variable interest entities, and how to determine
when and which business enterprises should consolidate variable interest
entities. This interpretation applies immediately to variable interest entities
created after January 31, 2003. It applies in the first fiscal year or interim
period beginning after June 15, 2003, to variable interest entities in which an
enterprise holds a variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003.
The adoption of this interpretation is not expected to have a material impact on
the Company's financial statements.

7. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company has one reportable segment, the rental of camera systems,
lighting systems and other equipment, and the sales of related products. These
activities are conducted in a number of geographic locations through the
Company's owned-and-operated facilities and its network of independent agents.
The geographic operations are organized in three regions: North America, Europe
and Asia Pacific.

The following table presents revenue and other financial information for
the reportable segment by geographic region (in thousands):

The accounting policies of the geographic regions are the same as those
described in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
included in the Company's 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

8. COMPREHENSIVE LOSS

For the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, comprehensive loss amounted
to $(5,615,000) and $(3,178,000), respectively. The difference between net loss
and comprehensive loss relates to the change in the Company's foreign currency
translation adjustments.

9. NET LOSS PER SHARE

For the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, the basic and diluted
per share data is based on the weighted-average number of common shares and
dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common
shares, consisting of outstanding stock options and warrants, are not included
in the diluted loss per share calculation since they are antidilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation for basic and diluted

10. STOCK-BASED BENEFITS

The Company follows the provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting
for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"). The provisions of SFAS 123 allow
companies to either expense the estimated fair value of stock options or to
continue to follow the intrinsic value method set forth in Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25"), but
disclose the pro forma effects on net income (loss) had the fair value of the
options been expensed.

Through the three months ended March 31, 2003, the Company has elected to
continue to apply APB 25 in accounting for its stock option grants.

In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 148, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure" ("SFAS 148"), which amends
SFAS 123. SFAS 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary
change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee
compensation. In addition, SFAS 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS
123 to require more prominent and more frequent disclosures in financial
statements about the effects of stock-based compensation. The Company has
complied with the disclosure requirements of SFAS 148 and will determine whether
it will adopt the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee
compensation.

The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and loss per share
if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provision of FASB No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to stock-based employee compensation
(in thousands, except per share data):

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

The Company's revenue is derived from three sources: (i) camera rental
operations, (ii) lighting rental operations, and (iii) sales and other revenue.
Revenue from camera rental operations consists of the rental of camera systems,
lenses and accessories to the motion picture and television industries through a
network of rental offices located throughout North America, Europe and the Asia
Pacific region. The rental of cinematographic equipment to major feature film
productions comprises the largest component of revenue generated from camera
rental operations.

The Company's lighting rental operations generate revenue through the
rental of lighting, lighting grip, transportation and distribution equipment, as
well as mobile generators, which are all used in the production of feature
films, television programs, commercials and other events. The Company owns and
operates lighting rental facilities in the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia.
Lee Lighting, the Company's lighting rental facility located in the United
Kingdom, generates the majority of the Company's lighting rental operations
revenue.

Sales and other revenue is comprised of: (i) the manufacture and sale of
lighting filters through Lee Filters in the United Kingdom and the United
States; (ii) EFILM's operations, which provide high-resolution scanning of film,
digital color timing, laser film recording of digital video and high definition
images to film and digital mastering services to the motion picture and
television industries, and (iii) sales of various consumable products, such as
film stock, light bulbs and gaffer tape, which are used in all types of
productions.

The Company considers revenue from international business to be that
revenue which is generated from the rental of its equipment by productions that
are located at production sites outside of the United States.

This section should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial
Statements and accompanying Notes included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 and the Critical Accounting
Policies as disclosed under item 7 in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2002.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

As also described in Note 2 of the Company's 2002 Annual Report on Form
10-K, on April 19, 2001, M&F Worldwide Corp. ("M&F Worldwide") purchased from PX
Holding Corporation ("PX Holding"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Mafco Holdings,
all 7,320,225 shares (the "Purchased Shares") of the Company's Common Stock held
by PX Holding (the "M&F Purchase"). The Purchased Shares constituted
approximately 83.5% of the Company's then outstanding Common Stock. As a result
of the purchase, Mafco Holdings increased its indirect interest in M&F Worldwide
to a majority position.

During 2001, certain shareholders of M&F Worldwide brought lawsuits against
M&F Worldwide and its directors challenging the M&F Purchase as an alleged
breach of fiduciary duty and sought, among other things, rescission of the M&F
Purchase transaction. One of the shareholders dismissed his lawsuit pursuant to
a settlement. On December 3, 2002, the remaining parties to the litigation
consummated the M&F Settlement, whereby Mafco Holdings acquired, through PX
Holding, (1) the shares of the Company's Common Stock that M&F Worldwide had
purchased in April 2001, (2) the shares of the Company's Series A Preferred
Stock that M&F Worldwide acquired in December of 2001, (3) the 9 5/8% Senior
Subordinated Discount Notes Due 2006 (the "Existing Notes") that a subsidiary of
M&F Worldwide acquired in November of 2001, and (4) the Las Palmas Note in the
amount of $6.7 million that the Company issued to M&F Worldwide on its
acquisition of the shares of Las Palmas (see Note 14 of the Company's 2002
Annual Report on Form 10-K). In addition, all agreements to which M&F Worldwide
entered into in

15


PANAVISION INC.


connection with the M&F Purchase and the December 2001 issuance of the Series A
Preferred Stock were terminated.

Thus, after the consummation of the M&F Settlement, the Company ceased
being a subsidiary of M&F Worldwide. Mafco Holdings, after giving effect to the
M&F Settlement, indirectly controls 85.7% of the voting shares of the Company.
The M&F Settlement did not have a significant impact on the recorded values of
the Company's assets or liabilities since the transaction was between parties
under common control.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis includes the Company's consolidated
results of operations for 2003 as compared to 2002.



QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2003 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2002

CAMERA RENTAL OPERATIONS

Camera rental revenue for the first quarter of 2003 was $29.4 million.
Revenue decreased $0.3 million, or 1.0%, as compared to the first quarter of
2002. The decline reflects a decrease in feature activity in the U.K. and
Canada, as well as decreased commercial rental revenue in the U.S., partially
offset by increased series television revenue.

Cost of camera rental for the first quarter of 2003 remained relatively
constant at $14.9 million as compared to $15.0 million for the corresponding
2002 quarter.

LIGHTING RENTAL OPERATIONS

Lighting rental revenue for the first quarter of 2003 was $6.8 million, a
decline of $0.8 million, or 10.5%, as compared to the first quarter of 2002. The
decrease reflects lower lighting rental activity in Australia, partially offset
by increased lighting rental activity at Lee Lighting in the U.K.

Cost of lighting rental for the first quarter of 2003 was $6.8 million, an
increase of $0.6 million, or 9.7%, as compared to the first quarter of 2002. The
increase was primarily due to increased labor expenses related to the increase
in lighting rental activity at Lee Lighting in the U.K., partially offset by
lower expenses in Australia.

SALES AND OTHER

Sales and other revenue in the first quarter of 2003 was $10.1 million, an
increase of $1.8 million, or 21.7%, over the corresponding 2002 quarter. The
increase was primarily due to increased business at EFILM as well as increased
sales at Lee Filters and Lee Lighting in the U.K.

Cost of sales and other for the first quarter of 2003 was $6.2 million, an
increase of $0.9 million, or 17.0%, as compared to 2002. The change was
primarily due to the increase in sales and other revenue discussed above.

OPERATING COSTS

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2003
were $19.3 million, an increase of $6.3 million, or 48.5%, as compared to the
first quarter of 2002. The increase was primarily due to a $4.0 million accrual
for severance costs in connection with the departure of the Company's former


16


PANAVISION INC.


Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as well as $1.1 million in
costs related to the expansion of EFILM since the prior year. The remaining
increase reflects increased employee costs, primarily incentive compensation
accruals, and various other increases throughout the Company.

Research and development expenses for the first quarter of 2003 were $1.2
million, as compared to $1.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2002. The
change was mainly due to payroll increases as compared to the prior year.

INTEREST, TAXES AND OTHER

Net interest expense for the first quarter of 2003 was $7.6 million, a
decrease of $0.8 million, or 9.5%, as compared to the first quarter of 2002. The
decrease reflects a lower debt level and lower interest rates as compared to the
first quarter of 2002. Had Mafco Holdings contributed $90.9 million principal
amount of Existing Notes on January 1, 2003, interest expense would have been
approximately $5.4 million in the first quarter of 2003.

Foreign exchange loss for the first quarter of 2003 was $0.9 million as
compared to $0.4 million in the first quarter of 2002. The increased loss was
primarily due to a weaker U.S. dollar as compared to the prior year.

The tax benefit for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 was $3.0 million, as
compared to a tax benefit of $0.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2002.
For the first quarter of 2003, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of
$3.3 million resulting from the benefit associated with domestic tax losses,
offset by a $0.3 million provision relating to profitable foreign operations and
foreign taxes withheld at source. See Notes 2 and 6 of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements included in the Company's 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K
for a discussion of the Company's Tax Sharing Agreements.

Under applicable Internal Revenue Service regulations, as a result of the
M&F Settlement, the Company may not join in filing a consolidated federal income
tax return with either Mafco Holdings or the Company's subsidiaries until May
2006 without consent from the Internal Revenue Service. Accordingly, for the
period from the effective date of the M&F Settlement of December 3, 2002 through
December 31, 2002, and for the 2003 tax year, the Company will file separate
federal income tax returns for the Company and incorporated subsidiaries. The
Company does not believe that deconsolidation of its federal income tax returns
will have a material adverse effect on the Company's business or financial
condition.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The following table sets forth certain information from the Company's
condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the periods indicated (in
thousands):

THREE MONTHS
ENDED MARCH 31,
------------------------------
2003 2002
------------ --------------
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities $ 556 $ 1,641
Investing activities (7,172) (7,037)
Financing activities 7,238 5,970

Cash provided by operating activities, for the three months ended March 31,
2003, totaled $0.6 million comprised of the net loss of $7.4 million, adjusted
for depreciation and amortization of $10.9 million, offset by the net change in
working capital (excluding cash) and other miscellaneous items totaling $2.9
million. Total investing activities of $7.2 million consisted of capital
expenditures. The majority of the capital expenditures were used to manufacture
camera rental systems and accessories. Cash provided by financing activities was
$7.2 million, which was comprised of repayments of $3.8 million under the
Existing Credit

17


PANAVISION INC.


Agreement, deferred financing costs of $3.2 million, proceeds from the issuance
of Series B Preferred Stock of $4.4 million and a capital contribution from
Mafco Holdings of $9.8 million, net of transaction costs.

Cash provided by operating activities, for the three months ended March 31,
2002, totaled $1.6 million comprised of the net loss of $3.3 million, adjusted
for depreciation and amortization of $10.5 million and the amortization of the
discount on the Existing Notes of $1.5 million, offset by the net change in
working capital (excluding cash) and other miscellaneous items totaling $7.1
million. Total investing activities of $7.0 million included $7.2 million of
capital expenditures, offset by $0.2 million in proceeds received from the
disposition of fixed assets. The majority of the capital expenditures were used
to manufacture camera rental systems and accessories. Cash provided by financing
activities was $6.0 million, reflecting borrowings of $13.0 million, offset by
repayments of $6.0 million under the Existing Credit Agreement and deferred
financing costs of $1.0 million.

Effective September 30, 2002, the Company amended the Existing Credit
Agreement to, among other things, reduce the minimum EBITDA the Company was
required to achieve for the four fiscal quarters ending September 30, 2002 (the
"September Amendment"). This provision of the September Amendment expired on
March 28, 2003.

The September Amendment also provided that it would be an event of default
if (i) by February 1, 2003, an affiliate of the Company failed to make a cash
equity contribution to the Company in the amount of the interest due February 1,
2003 on Existing Notes held by affiliates of the Company on that date or (ii) by
March 28, 2003, the Existing Credit Agreement was not refinanced or the debt of
the Company reduced, in either case by an amount acceptable to the lenders under
the Existing Credit Agreement, or an affiliate of the Company failed to make a
cash equity contribution to the Company in the amount of the interest which was
due on February 1, 2003 on Existing Notes held by non-affiliates of the Company
on that date. On January 31, 2003, Mafco Holdings made the required cash equity
contribution to the Company in the amount of the interest due February 1, 2003
on the Existing Notes held by affiliates of the Company on that date in exchange
for 4,372 shares of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock.

On February 3, 2003, Mafco Holdings agreed to extend to the Company a
revolving line of credit in the amount of $4.0 million, at the same rate as
provided for in the Revolving Facility pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement
(the "Mafco Line").

On March 27, 2003, the Company amended its Existing Credit Agreement to,
among other things, decrease minimum EBITDA for the four fiscal quarters ended
December 31, 2002, specify the minimum EBITDA, decrease the minimum interest
coverage ratio and increase the maximum leverage ratio required for the four
fiscal quarters ending on each of March 31, 2003, June 30, 2003, September 30,
2003 and December 31, 2003 (the "March 2003 Amendment"). Absent this amendment,
the Company would not have been in compliance with financial covenants for the
four fiscal quarters ended December 31, 2002. Under the March 2003 Amendment,
certain lenders also agreed to defer amortization payments otherwise due in 2003
to March 31, 2004 such that amortization payments required of the Company in
2003 will be reduced by $20.0 million. The Company agreed to pay, among other
fees, $2.0 million, representing 10% of the amount of deferred amortization, at
closing.

In connection with the March 2003 Amendment, Mafco Holdings contributed
$90,860,000 principal amount of Existing Notes and $10.0 million in cash to the
Company in exchange for 102,220 shares of Series C Cumulative Pay-in-Kind
Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the "Series C
Preferred Stock"), which it contributed to the capital of PX Holding, and PX
Holding contributed to the Company 53,571 shares of Series B Preferred Stock in
exchange for 57,424 shares of Series C Preferred Stock. In connection with the
contribution of Existing Notes by the majority shareholder, deferred tax assets
associated with these Existing Notes of $18.0 million were charged against
additional paid-in capital. Due to the related party nature of this transaction,
the Company did not record any gain or loss in the first quarter of 2003. The
Series C Preferred Stock is non-voting; has a liquidation preference of $1,000
per share plus accrued and unpaid


18


PANAVISION INC.


dividends; and entitles the holder to cumulative dividends at a rate of 10% per
annum regardless of whether declared or earned. Additionally, the Series C
Preferred Stock is subject to redemption in certain circumstances upon a change
of control. Mafco Holdings also agreed to a maturity date of March 31, 2004 on
the Mafco Line.

Before March 31, 2004, in order to provide the Company with additional
financial and operating flexibility and to improve its overall capital
structure, the Company intends to seek other sources of financing on terms more
favorable to the Company than under the Existing Credit Agreement, including
dates of maturity, amortization schedules and/or interest rates. However, there
can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure alternate financing
on such favorable terms by March 31, 2004. While the lenders under the Existing
Credit Agreement have accommodated the Company to date and the Company believes
that the lenders will continue to do so, there can be no assurance that they
will continue to do so in March 2004 in the event alternate financing is not
secured.

Panavision is a holding company whose only material asset is the ownership
interest in its subsidiaries. Panavision's principal business operations are
conducted by its subsidiaries. Although there can be no assurance, the Company
expects that cash flows from operations, borrowings under the Existing Credit
Agreement and the Mafco Line, and cash equity contributions and advances from
affiliates will be sufficient to enable the Company to meet its anticipated cash
requirements through at least December 31, 2003, including operating expenses,
working capital, capital expenditures, further investment in EFILM, LLC and
scheduled debt service requirements. If unable to satisfy such cash
requirements, the Company could be required to adopt one or more alternatives,
such as reducing or delaying capital expenditures, restructuring indebtedness,
or issuing additional shares of capital stock in the Company. There can be no
assurance that any of such actions could be effected, or if so, on terms
favorable to the Company, or that they would enable the Company to continue to
satisfy its cash requirements.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

forward-looking statements contained in this filing.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company has exposure to market risk both as a result of changing
interest rates and movements in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company
manages its exposure to these market risks through its regular operating and
financing activities. Item 7A of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2002 presents quantitative and qualitative
disclosures about market risk as of December 31, 2002. There have been no
material changes in this disclosure as of March 31, 2003.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (who are
its principal executive officers and principal financial officer, respectively)
have, within 90 days prior to the filing date of this quarterly report on Form
10-Q, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended, the "Exchange Act")). Based upon such
evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective to
ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports
filed or submitted by it under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's
rules and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's
management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,
as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have
determined that there were no significant changes in the Company's internal
controls or in other factors that could significantly affect the Company's
internal controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation, nor any
significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in such internal controls
requiring corrective actions. The Company will continue to evaluate and assess
its internal controls for financial reporting in 2003.
