EXPLANATORY NOTE / DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

These post-effective amendments (each, a “Post-Effective Amendment” and, collectively, the “Post-Effective Amendments”) relate to the following Registration Statements on Form S-8 (each, a “Registration Statement” and, collectively, the “Registration Statements”) filed by Eros Media World Plc (f/k/a Eros International plc), a Delaware corporation (the “Registrant”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”):

●

Registration Statement on Form S-8 (333-207072), filed with the SEC on September 22, 2015, which registered the offering of an aggregate of (i) 650,000 of the Registrant’s A ordinary shares, par value GBP 0.30 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), issuable to eligible persons under the Eros International plc 2015 Share Plan Unapproved Option Awards Scheme 2015 (the “2015 Plan”), (ii) 200,000 Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding options under the 2015 Plan, (iii) 830,000 Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding options under the Eros International plc 2014 Plan Unapproved Option Awards Scheme 2014, (iv) 674,045 Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding options under the Eros International plc 2012 Share Plan Unapproved Option Awards Scheme, (v) 62,438 Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding options under the Eros International plc Bonus Share Plan Unapproved Option Scheme 2006, (vi) 500,000 Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding options granted under the Director Agreement dated February 13, 2015 by and between Eros International Plc and David Maisel, (vii) 500,000 Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding options granted under the Director Agreement dated June 17, 2015 by and between Eros International Plc and Rajeev Misra, (viii) 300,000 Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding restricted stock unit awards granted under the Service Agreement President North America & Group Chief Financial Officer dated May 26, 2015 by and between Eros International Plc and Prem Parameswaran, (ix) 717,430 Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding restricted stock units under the 2014 and 2015 Restricted Stock Unit Award Program and (x) 54,000 Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding unrestricted stock awards under the Unrestricted Stock Award Program;

●

Registration Statement on Form S-8 (333-223643), filed with the SEC on March 14, 2018, which registered the offering of an aggregate of 5,670,000 of Ordinary Shares issuable to eligible persons under the Eros International plc 2017 Restricted Share and Restricted Stock Unit Plan; and

●

Registration Statement on Form S-8 (333-227184), filed with the SEC on September 4, 2018, which registered the offering of an aggregate of 2,500,000 additional Ordinary Shares available for issuance to eligible persons under the 2015 Plan.

In light of the Registrant’s inability to file the reports required under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, on a timely basis and the delisting of the Ordinary Shares from the New York Stock Exchange Regulation, the Registrant has terminated any and all offerings of securities pursuant to the Registration Statements. Accordingly, the Registrant, by filing these Post-Effective Amendments, hereby terminates the effectiveness of the Registration Statements, and, in accordance with an undertaking made by the Registrant in Item 9 of the Registration Statements to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any securities that had been registered for issuance but remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby removes from registration any and all securities registered but which remain unsold under the Registration Statements as of the date hereof.
