Arasor International Ltd (ASX code: ARR), through its channels in India,
has entered a $32 million multi-year, multi-phase strategic memorandum
of understanding (MOU) with Pyramid Saimira Theaters Ltd (PSTL), a

Under the MOU, Arasor will provide photonic signal processing

other countries.

and China by the end of the decade.
"Under the provisions of the MOU, Arasor has secured an initial
purchase order for delivery of next-generation D-Cinema solutions for
rollout in Malaysia and which provide completely new viewing experiences
to the cinema audience in a highly controlled medium, whereby content
piracy is mitigated," the directors said.
