any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. </FONT></P>

(1)
Pursuant to Rule 416 under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "
Securities Act
"), this Registration Statement on Form S-8 shall also cover
any additional Common Shares that become deliverable by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or other similar transaction effected without the receipt of consideration that results in an increase in the number of outstanding
Common Shares to be offered or sold pursuant to the plan.
(2)
Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee. Such estimate is calculated pursuant to Rules 457(c) and 457(h) under the Securities Act, based on
the average of the high and low prices ($26.86 and $26.22, respectively) of IMAX Corporation Common Shares quoted on the New York Stock Exchange on June 5, 2013.
(3)
On March 11, 2010, 5,444,180 shares of the Registrant's Common Stock were registered on Form S-8 (File No. 333-165400) (the "2010 S-8"). A
registration fee of $5,244.18 (the "2010 S-8 Fee") was paid in connection with the 2010 S-8. Of the 5,444,180 registered shares of the Registrant's Common Stock, 1,546,537 shares have not been issued and the Registrant has
deregistered such shares by a post-effective amendment. Pursuant to Rule 457(p) of the Securities Act, $1,489.73, which is the portion of the 2010 S-8 Fee corresponding to the amount of the 2010 S-8 Fee attributable to the deregistered shares, is
offset against the currently due filing fee.

The following documents, which have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "

") by the Registrant are incorporated herein by reference into this Registration
Statement:
(a) the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2012, filed February 21, 2013;
(b) all other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the
U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the "
Exchange Act
") since the end of the fiscal year covered by the Annual Report on Form 10-K referred to in clause (a) above, including the Registrant's Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31, 2013, filed April 25, 2013 and the Registrant's Current Reports on Form 8-K dated April 25, 2013; and

Section 12 of the Exchange Act, contained in the Registrant's Registration Statement on Form 20-F/A No. 2 filed with the Commission on June 7, 1994, including any amendment or report filed for the purposes of updating such
description.
In addition, all documents filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the
Exchange Act subsequent to the effective date of this Registration Statement, but prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement, which indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all
securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be part thereof from the date of filing of such documents.
Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to
be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or
supersedes such statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.
Item 4.
Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5.
Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Company's General By-law contains an indemnification of its directors/officers, former directors/officers and persons who have acted at its request to be a director/officer of an entity in which
the Company is a shareholder or creditor, to indemnify them, to the extent permitted by the
Canada Business Corporations Act
, against expenses (including legal fees), judgments, fines and any amount actually and reasonably incurred by them in
connection with any action, suit or proceeding in which the directors and/or officers are sued as a result of their service, if they acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company. The nature of the indemnification
prevents the Company from making a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential amount it could be required to pay to counterparties. The Company has purchased directors' and officers' liability insurance. No amount has been accrued in the
consolidated balance sheet as at December 31, 2012 with respect to this indemnity.
The Registrant maintains
directors' and officers' liability insurance with an aggregate policy limit of U.S. $70 million subject to a deductible of U.S. $100,000 for each claim other than securities law claims and U.S. $500,000 in respect of U.S. securities law
claims.
Item 7.
Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not applicable.
Item 8.
Exhibits.
See Exhibit
Index.
Item 9.
Undertakings.
(a) The
undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made of securities registered hereby, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) to include any
prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events
arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which , individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration
Statement;
(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;
provided
,
however
; that the undertakings set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are
incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any
liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof; and
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned Registrant
hereby further undertakes that, for purposes of determining liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in this
Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of
any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
