Overview of Discussion Topics
Goldman Sachs appreciates the opportunity to continue working with Getty to assess current market dynamics and potential alternatives to maximize long term shareholder value
Getty has a legacy of success in the visual content market with its portfolio of creative imagery and footage
Business growth prospects remain strong but the traditional businesses face challenges
— New content forms and purchasing models emerge as viable competitors
The valuation of the Company has experienced a significant decline due to a change in views on fundamental growth potential of the Company as it is undergoing a business portfolio and model transition
To support the Board in its evaluation of alternatives, in today’s materials we review:
— Stand-alone financial outlook
— Current stand-alone valuation
— Capital structure management alternatives and potential impact on standalone valuation
— Potential sale alternatives to strategic and financial buyers

Overview of Alternatives
Company remains public
Status Quo Assumes current capital structure
— Re-financing of extant convertible (including associated taxes) and short-term line of credit
— Assumes no incremental/new share repurchases
Company remains public and undertakes more aggressive recapitalization funded by incremental debt to drive EPS growth and lower cost of capital
Target leverage levels up to 3.5x LTM EBITDA
Levered Recapitalization
— Incur incremental debt to fund share repurchase
Scenarios assume upfront FY2008 repurchase
Assume no change in forward Price/Earnings ratio
Change of control transaction
Buyer expected to assume maximum reasonable and marketable leverage
— In a normal market environment, target leverage levels up to 6x LTM EBITDA
Leveraged Buyout
— Today’s financial market would likely support up to 4x LTM EBITDA leverage levels
Change-of-control transaction
Strategic Sale
Limited probable buyer universe
— Lack of strategic approaches in recent past

Status Quo Considerations and Alternatives 19
Goldman Sachs
Research Analysts’ Perspectives on Getty Images
Opportunities
“The Getty Images business model remains attractive. Most of the images offered on gettyimages.com are owned by independent photographers, and are created at their expense. This means Getty’s Cost of Goods Sold expense (a photographer royalty) is incurred only if an image is sold and paid for only after Getty Images is paid. Those images that are owned by Getty (~20% of total) are capitalized and depreciated, and therefore carry a 100% gross margin. Thus, the business model has high fixed costs, resulting in significant operating leverage.” (Robert Baird, 2-Aug-2007)
“Micro-payment Momentum: While traditional still image volumes shrank in the quarter, micro-payment volumes came in at 4.25mn (above our 4mn estimate) up 113%Y/Y. ASPs continued to move higher, as the price increases in Jan continue to flow through to this quarter.” (Deutsche Bank 2-Aug-2007)
“Each of the people [at micro-payment companies] we spoke with mentioned growing quickly. However, even in the micro-payment market, Getty and Corbis continue to take the lion’s share of a price of picture sold (70-80%).” (Kaufman Brothers, 2-July-2007)
“[Pump] represents Getty’s initial foray into the music licensing business, which the Company characterized as highly fragmented and similar to where the imagery business was 10 years ago.” (William Blair, 21-June-2007)
Risks
“While we have long-term confidence in CEO Jonathan Klein’s ability to navigate the evolving business landscape in the visual content industry, we continue to expect this evolution to be highly disruptive to near-term financial results.
Accordingly, we see no rush to own the shares, despite a valuation that looks appealing relative to the stock’s historic trading range. (GS, 6-Aug-2007)
“The challenge is that demand is shifting toward less expensive images. Customers who might have bought RM in the past (ASP of $536) are buying RF images (ASP of $245), and customers who bought RF images are now buying micropayments (ASP $2).” (Robert Baird, 2-Aug-2007)
“Getty reported its third consecutive quarter of relatively in-line performance, following a string of four disappointing quarters; however, the company’s dramatic reduction in guidance will be coldly received by the market … There are no signs that Getty will reaccelerate revenue growth anytime soon, and we see risk that organic revenue contraction could worsen before it improves … As time passes and industry conditions continue to shift, we believe the likelihood that Getty will reestablish itself as a “growth” company is somewhat slim.” (William Blair, 2-Aug-2007)

High Yield Market Update
Recent New Issue Market and Backlog
The high yield primary market was quiet last week coming out of the Labor Day holiday as no new deals priced
The currently announced backlog remains very low, standing at 1 deal for $110 million. Investors are turning their attention to the substantial backlog, the majority of which is LBO-related, as it remains at unprecedented levels
Overall the market remains focused on the large forward calendar that is slated to come to market in the coming months
Market Conditions Weakening, Spreads Wider
Over the past three months, credit spreads have widened significantly as investor concern about the large forward calendar has decreased overall risk appetite. Market volatility has contributed to wider primary market pricing and decreased total issuance
Treasury yields have moved lower in recent weeks, but investors continue to demand high new issue premiums on top of the widening secondary levels, increasing the overall cost of new financing in the high yield market
The high yield market has witnessed continued mutual fund outflows over the course of the summer, although two consecutive weeks of inflows suggest that some capital is returning
Default rates remain substantially below historical averages
High Yield Market Statistics
Volume of Issuance: $126.0 bn YTD in 2007 vs. $97.2 bn YTD in 2006

Average Yield: 8.863% YTD in 2007 vs. 8.876% YTD in 2006
Market Indicators
The US Treasury yields fell again last week. The 10-year was 16 bps stronger on the week to yield 4.37%. The yield on the 30-year was 12 bps better, ending at 4.70%

Key Issues to Consider in a Take Private Transaction
Rationale
Unique franchise value
Leveragability of the assets / business
— Good cash flow generation and relative projected stability
— Sustainability of strategic position
Potential for enhanced financial performance
— Portfolio reconfigurations
— More aggressive P&L management
— Investment for top line growth
Intact, experienced management team
Viable exit alternatives (sale, IPO, recap, consolidation platform, spin-offs)
Embedded option value in new businesses
Key Issues to Consider
Company/Management Perspective
Illiquid investment of uncertain duration
— Exit dependent on future market conditions and company performance
— Illiquid equity-based employee incentives
Equity sponsor(s) as new owner, decision maker
Substantially increases financial leverage and risk
— May limit financial flexibility for growth investments and acquisitions
— Debt covenants constrain financial flexibility
— Vulnerability to downturn in the industry
Less access to capital
— Potentially higher cost of financing
Sponsor Perspective
Potentially sub-optimal initial headline returns
Consideration of potential downside risk in traditional business
Need to underwrite venture risk of new businesses

New Challenges to LBO Transactions Have Arisen
ISS
ISS’s Contentious List highlights deals that are facing opposition or which ISS views to have “risks”
The list currently includes over 55% of pending LBO transactions
ISS has increasingly recommended votes against LBO transactions, including Clear Channel, Cornell Companies, Genesis Healthcare, Lone Star Steakhouse, Riviera Holdings and Shopko
Increased Disclosure
Rule 13e-3 requires exhaustive public disclosure
Courts are increasingly demanding detailed disclosure of projections, interactions between sponsors and management and other aspects of the process
Hedge Fund Activism
Trying to obtain “alpha” returns by demanding a higher price or asserting appraisal rights
Criticism of transactions, analyses and processes in public filings
Increasing Dissatisfaction from Mutual Funds
Dissatisfaction with high returns achieved by sponsors after public company is taken “private”
Skepticism about management’s role in process
Fewer U.S. public companies means fewer opportunities to invest
Mutual fund shareholders are sometimes publicly reported to be opposing certain LBO transactions
Increased Court Scrutiny
Litigation continues to target “going private” deals due to perceived settlement value
Recent court cases are focusing on the risks relating to LBO processes
Appraisal rights offer opportunity for court to recalculate the value of the company (plus interest) years after the deal closes
