WHAT IS HAPPENING WITH THE SHOWTIME STREAMING SERVICE?

programming will now be available through Paramount+ with a subscription to the
Paramount+ with SHOWTIME plan.

Existing SHOWTIME standalone streaming subscribers will continue to have access
to the SHOWTIME app and website until April 30, 2024. Some subscribers who are
billed directly by SHOWTIME, Roku or Apple are eligible to have their SHOWTIME
account automatically transferred to a Paramount+ with SHOWTIME plan on
Paramount+. If your account is eligible for transfer, you should have received
an email from your biller with additional details.

If you do not see the transfer option, you will need to visit Paramount+ on your
preferred platform and subscribe to the Paramount+ with SHOWTIME plan. For more
instructions on how to subscribe, go here.

Customers who subscribe to SHOWTIME through Amazon Prime Channels, Apple TV
channels, The Roku Channel, and YouTube TV should contact their provider for
more information.

SUBSCRIPTION TRANSFERS: WHAT TO EXPECT

* I'm a SHOWTIME streaming subscriber. Is my subscription eligible for transfer
to Paramount+?
* My SHOWTIME subscription was transferred to Paramount+. What happens now?
* My SHOWTIME streaming subscription was transferred to Paramount+. Can I still
watch on the SHOWTIME app until it goes away on April 30, 2024?

I'M A SHOWTIME STREAMING SUBSCRIBER. IS MY SUBSCRIPTION ELIGIBLE FOR TRANSFER TO
PARAMOUNT+?

Most subscribers are eligible to transfer their subscription. If your account is
eligible for transfer, you should have received an email from your biller with
additional details.

Subscribers billed by Apple, Roku, or Amazon will automatically have their
subscription transferred to a Paramount+ with SHOWTIME plan on Paramount+ unless
they canceled via the billing provider's cancellation instructions.

If you are billed by Amazon or Google, or if your subscription is deemed
ineligible for automatic transfer, your SHOWTIME subscription will be canceled
on your behalf, and you will need to subscribe to the Paramount+ with SHOWTIME
plan to stream SHOWTIME programs.

MY SHOWTIME SUBSCRIPTION WAS TRANSFERRED TO PARAMOUNT+. WHAT HAPPENS NOW?

If you are eligible to have your SHOWTIME subscription transferred to Paramount+
and you received a message that your account was successfully transferred:

* Your existing SHOWTIME subscription will be canceled by 4/1, and your new
monthly Paramount+ with SHOWTIME subscription through Paramount+ will begin.
* Your billing information, account activity data and select account settings
(including email marketing preferences), Resume Watching*, and My List* will
be transferred to your new subscription through Paramount+. Parental Control
settings will not be transferred to your new subscription through Paramount+.
Once you have transferred, you can update your payment method and manage your
account settings at Paramount+.
* You will be charged for the first month of your new Paramount+ with SHOWTIME
subscription using the payment method associated with your SHOWTIME account.
(Your Paramount+ with SHOWTIME subscription will renew automatically each
month unless you cancel through your Paramount+ account settings.)
* A prorated refund will be issued to the payment method associated with your
SHOWTIME account for the time left on your SHOWTIME subscription at the time
of the transfer**.
* You will log in to Paramount+ using your SHOWTIME email and password. If you
already have an existing Paramount+ account, you will be instructed to use
those login credentials instead. Check out this section for login info.

* Please allow 24 hours for your Resume Watching and My List to fully populate.
**If, for any reason, we are unable to issue a refund to the payment method
associated with your SHOWTIME account (including, without limitation, the refund
is rejected by the card processor and/or bank or the transaction we are
attempting to refund occurred too long ago), we will apply your prorated refund
as a credit on your new Paramount+ account toward subscription charges incurred
after the initial charge upon transfer.

My SHOWTIME streaming subscription was transferred to Paramount+. Can I still
watch on the SHOWTIME app until it goes away on April 30, 2024?

No, since your subscription has been transferred to Paramount+, you’ll stream
all SHOWTIME programming on paramountplus.com or the Paramount+ app.

I WAS A SHOWTIME ANNUAL SUBSCRIBER. DOES THIS MEAN I GET A PARAMOUNT+ ANNUAL
SUBSCRIPTION?

Your subscription will be transferred to Paramount+ as the Paramount+ with
SHOWTIME monthly subscription. If you prefer annual billing, it’s easy to switch
your plan! Just follow the instructions below. Keep in mind that any attached
promotions or discounts will no longer be valid, and you will be charged the
full price of the annual plan immediately. If you upgrade in the middle of your
billing cycle, you will receive a prorated adjustment for any unused portion of
your bill.

to do so here).
2. Scroll down to Subscription & Billing > Next Billing Date.
3. Click Switch to Annual.
4. The Paramount+ with SHOWTIME plan will be automatically selected for you.
The annual price is $119.99 and you will be charged immediately.
