UPDATE 2-DreamWorks closes film financing deal with Reliance

* DreamWorks Studios and Reliance announce financing deal

* JP Morgan to arrange $325 million, matched by Reliance (Adds details throughout)

LOS ANGELES Aug 17 (Reuters) - Steven Spielberg's DreamWorks Studios and Indian conglomerate Reliance ADA Group closed a financing agreement on Monday, putting the final piece of an $825 million deal in place for up to six films a year.

JPMorgan Securities arranged the syndication of about $325 million in financing to DreamWorks Studios, which is headed by Oscar-winning director Spielberg and veteran movie executive Stacey Snider. Reliance Big Entertainment, a division of Reliance ADA Group, is matching that amount.

Walt Disney Co (DIS.N) will handle marketing and distribution for DreamWorks Studio's films around the world, except in India where Reliance Big retains distribution.

Disney also will loan DreamWorks Studios $175 million under the partnership, said one source who knew of the deal's details, which combined with the JP Morgan package and Reliance funding brings the total financing to $825 million.

The deal allows DreamWorks Studios to produce five to six movies a year, said company spokesman Chip Sullivan.

The first film to be distributed through Disney will be "Harvey," a movie to begin production early next year based on a play that became a 1950 movie classic of the same name.

"Harvey" will hit theaters later in 2010.

The list of financiers JP Morgan brought together includes Bank of America (BAC.N), Wells Fargo & Co (WFC.N) and Comerica Inc. (CMA.N)

The newly created DreamWorks Studios is a production unit separate from DreamWorks Animation SKG Inc (DWA.O).

DreamWorks and Reliance ADA Group, the Indian conglomerate, announced a plan to work together last year in a film financing deal that allows DreamWorks to start anew after it cut ties with Viacom Inc's VIAb.N Paramount Pictures. (Reporting by Alex Dobuzinskis: Editing by Bernard Orr)
