Peace Arch Bolsters Motion Pictures Team

TORONTO, November 6: Julie
Sultan has been upped to the newly created role of president of international
motion picture acquisitions and sales for Peace Arch Entertainment, and has
made a number of promotions within her new team.

Sultan joined Peace Arch
as executive VP of international film sales in April 2007 from Lakeshore
International, where she served as senior VP for seven years. Prior to this
Sultan worked in international sales roles at NBC and Playboy Entertainment Group.

In turn, Sultan has
promoted Suzanne Barron to executive VP of international motion picture sales,
Caroline Dubourg to VP of international motion picture sales and business
affairs and Nicole Jelovic to manager of international motion picture sales.
Barron joined Peace Arch in 2004 after stints at HBO Enterprises and Playboy
Entertainment Group, while Dubourg has been at the company since 2007 and
previously served at TF1 International. Jelovic also joined Peace Arch in 2007,
after having worked at indie producer Booya Studios.

"There
is no one better than Julie to lead our international film acquisition and
sales efforts, which will play an increasingly important role in boosting our
profitability," Peace Arch's COO, John
Flock, said. "By lowering our production output, we have been able to
focus more of our resources on economically acquiring quality films to meet
growing demand both internationally and from our own expanding direct DVD and
theatrical distribution businesses in North America. Julie is a superb,
results-oriented executive with a stellar reputation, whose track record of
success for us over the past 18 months makes her the perfect candidate for this
vital new role."

"I
am thrilled that Peace Arch has provided me with this opportunity, and
fortunate to have such a capable, highly talented team of executives in place
to promote," Sultan added. "Having someone of Suzanne's caliber at my
side is a great asset. Combined with Caroline's business acumen and strong
understanding of the industry, as well as Nicole's first-rate sales abilities,
Peace Arch is well positioned to build on the momentum it has
established."
