Re: Employment Agreement

Gentlemen:

The following sets forth the material terms and conditions of the agreement (“Agreement”) between World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. (“the Company”) and you in connection with your anticipated employment by the Company as President of WWE Films (“the Division”).

In consideration of the mutual covenants and conditions contained herein, the Company and you have agreed as follows:

1.		Term: The Company hereby employs you for a term of two (2) years commencing on Friday, May 20, 2005 (“Effective Date”), unless earlier terminated as provided for herein (“Term”).

2.		Duties/Title: During the Term, you shall serve as President of the Division. You shall report directly to Xxxxxxx X. XxXxxxx and Xxxxx X.

You shall also be primarily responsible for the management and supervision of all business and operations of the Division Projects, including without limitation, the development, financing, production, and distribution of motion pictures, television and direct-to-video programs for Division. You shall also be assigned such additional areas of responsibility and shall perform such duties, generally consistent with the foregoing, as the McMahons shall from time to time reasonably determine. During the Term, you shall faithfully perform the duties required of your office, and shall devote your full business time and best efforts to

the performance of your duties to the Division and the Company. Your services to the Company shall be rendered on a full-time, in person, and exclusive basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may render limited outside services in connection with non-interfering charitable and political activities, if any, provided that in no event shall such outside services materially interfere with your services to the Company and the Division, which shall have first priority throughout the Term.

3. Cash Compensation:

	a)		Base Salary: Company shall pay you Four Hundred Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($425,000) for the First Contract Year and Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) for the Second Contract Year, payable in equal installments over the course of each Contract Year in accordance with Company’s regular payroll practices.
	b)		Incentive Compensation: In connection with each Division Project fully-financed by third party studios, distributors or production companies other than (i) projects developed primarily by third party studios, distributors or production companies (i.e., projects not developed in material collaboration with the Division), and as to which WWE does not actively render development or production services; and/or (ii) projects brought to the Company primarily in connection with casting WWE talent in such projects and as to which WWE does not actively render development or production services, you shall receive: (i) ten percent (10%) of the fixed (non-refundable) fees; and (ii) five percent (5%) of all contingent compensation (including, without limitation, backend participations, bonuses, deferments and advances), in each case actually paid to or retained by Company and/or any of its other executives, in connection with each such Division Project after deduction of directly related outside attorney and agent fees, if any.

STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Standard Terms and Conditions to the agreement (“Agreement”) between World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. (“Company”) and Xxxx Xxxxx (“Employee”) dated as of May 20, 2005.

1. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT:

	(a)		Termination by the Company other than for Cause: The Company shall be permitted to discharge Employee other than for Cause (as hereafter defined), in which case Employee’s employment shall immediately terminate. In the event of a termination other than for Cause, and subject to Employee’s continued compliance with the provisions of Section 2 of these Standard Terms and Conditions, the Company shall pay Employee either: (i) his then current base salary for a period of twelve (12) months after the date of termination, if such termination occurred within the first Contract Year; or (ii) his then current base salary for the remainder of the Term, if such termination occurred during the second Contract Year (the foregoing, the “Severance Payment”). Employee will have no duty to mitigate by seeking other employment during the remainder of the Term in which any such termination occurs, and if other income is obtained during the remainder of such Term, the Company will not have a right to offset Employee’s base salary in connection with such other income. In the event that Employee is terminated pursuant to this subparagraph: (i) Employee shall also be entitled to Incentive Compensation and Credit (pursuant to Paragraphs 3(b) and 5 of the Agreement) in connection with any Division Projects put into development by Division prior to Employee’s termination; and (ii) such vested and retirement benefits as Employee may be entitled to under any employee benefit or pension plan, provided that the terms of such plan provide that Employee shall be permitted to retain the benefit thereof under such circumstance.
	(b)		Death or Disability: Employee’s employment by the Company shall immediately terminate upon Employee’s death and, at the Company’s option, may terminate upon the Employee’s Disability. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall occur if (i) Employee becomes eligible for full benefits under a long-term disability policy provided by the Company, if any, or (ii) the Company’s board of directors determines that the Employee has been unable, due to physical or mental illness or incapacity, to perform the essential duties of his employment with reasonable accommodation for a continuous period of sixty (60) days or for an aggregate of ninety (90) days during any consecutive twelve (12) months. Upon termination of employment due to death or Disability, the Company shall have no further obligation to make payments under this Agreement, other than (i) compensation payments, payments in respect of accrued but unpaid vacation and reimbursement for business expenses, in each case due, accrued or payable as of

- 7 -

In the event of Employee’s Disability, Employee will not be entitled to receive all or any part of the Severance Payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of Employee’s death, Company shall pay Employee’s estate the balance of Employee’s then current base salary for the remainder of the Term. Employee waives any right under the Americans with Disabilities Act to challenge the legality of this provision and any bona fide termination based on it.
	(c)		Termination by Employer for Cause. The Company shall be permitted to discharge Employee for Cause, in which case Employee’s employment shall immediately terminate.

In the event of Employee’s termination for Cause, Employee will not be entitled to receive all or any part of the Severance Payment.
	(d)		Termination by Employee for Cause. Employee may terminate this Agreement at any time if the Company fails to make the payments required by this Agreement within ten (10) business days following written notice from Employee describing such nonpayment or if the Company breaches any other material provision of this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days following written notice from Employee describing such breach in detail. Upon termination pursuant to this Section, the Company shall have no further obligation to make payments under this Agreement, other than, subject to Employee’s continued
