We are seeking investment from companies who should benefit from the Tax incentives offered in the existing Finance Bill which enables them to deduct double tax from their tax liability in the financial year. This we are requesting should not be dependent on the Film having the EDB Rebate approval as is the case currently.
Whilst the Government sets aside funds to meet the Film Rebates if they approve the tax incentives outlined above it would have no direct impact on the country’s economy because until the Government actually receives the tax from companies they do not have this money, so it is not in their budget for future expenditure, although the finished film/TV series will contribute both to the GDP and attract Forex through international sales whilst creating many jobs and keeping the film industry alive.
Should the Government approve the double tax relief for Heritage Revival Mauritius- Pamplemousses Gardens as outlined in the Finance Act this would have the affect of providing initial income tax relief of 40% against the cost of the shares.
Release Process
Once complete ‘Heritage Revival Mauritius – Pamplemousses Gardens‘, will be released internationally on the streaming platform INDiO who also act as distributor and sales agents marketing to the film to a worldwide audience.
Return On Investment
A common strategy is selling films/TV series by territory. The agreement with INDiO allows us to do this so that for the duration of the licence, that territory will be excluded from the global reach of the streaming service. Based on the sales estimates (Appendix One), Heritage Revival Mauritius – Pamplemousses Gardens, has the potential to make a significant profit from exploitation in all media – broadcast, terrestrial, cable, satellite, streaming and VOD.
For sales to other platforms the international distributor/sales agent will take a maximum 30% commission with a capped sum for marketing and promotion. In the case of INDiO they undertake the marketing and promotion with no charge to the producer.
Investor Rights and Shares
The rights in the completed TV series will be owned jointly by the producers and the investors.
Investors shall hold 97.5% of the total issued share capital of 52 Million Mauritian Rupees as ‘B Shares’.
The ‘B’ shares will rank first for any dividend or capital realisation and will then receive 50% of any available net income which will comprise all revenues generated by the film and related activities.
The Producers, Heritage Revival Mauritius Limited, shall be allocated 2.5% of the total issued share capital of 52 Million Mauritian Rupees as ‘A’ shares with full voting rights. Investors holding “B’ shares would collectively be able to appoint a Director with full voting rights.
Any dividend distributed after the aggregate total dividend has reached 52 Million Mauritian Rupees – ‘A’ Shares receive 50% and ‘B’ Shares receive 50%.
