<PAGE>
against and Interests in the Debtors:

      5.1 Class 1 - Priority Claims. Each Person holding an Allowed Claim in
Class 1 shall be paid (a) the full amount of such Allowed Claim in Cash on the
later of (i) the Effective Date, (ii) the date such Claim becomes an Allowed
Claim or (iii) the date such Claim becomes payable in accordance with the terms
governing such Claim, or (b) upon such other less favorable terms as may be
agreed to by such Person and Reorganized GCX or Reorganized GCT.


      5.2 Class 2 - Secured Claims. In respect of each Allowed Class 2 Secured
Claim, the Reorganized Debtor which is liable thereon shall, at the option of
AMCE, either: (a) reinstate such Claim by curing all outstanding defaults, with
all legal, equitable and contractual rights remaining unaltered, except as
permitted by Bankruptcy Code Section 1124(2); (b) pay such Claim in Cash in full
as soon as practicable after the later of the Effective Date or the date such
Claim becomes an Allowed Claim, or such other date to which such Person and
Reorganized GCX agree; (c) distribute to the Holder of such Claim the property
securing such Claim, in which event any Allowed Deficiency Claim of the Holder
shall be entitled to treatment in Class 6; or (d) accord the Person holding such
Claim such other treatment as may be agreed to by such Person and Reorganized
GCX or Reorganized GCT.

      5.3 Class 3 - Claims of Heller. As to each Class 3 Claim, Reorganized GCX
or Reorganized GCT will reinstate such Class 3 Claim by curing all outstanding
defaults and leaving all legal, equitable, and contractual rights unaltered,

option of AMCE, Reorganized GCX or Reorganized GCT shall have the right to pay
such Allowed Class 3 Claim in full in Cash on the Effective Date, or as soon
thereafter as practicable, in full satisfaction of such Allowed Class 3 Claim.
For purposes of the foregoing, Heller shall be deemed to have an Allowed Class 3
Claim in the amount of $28,408,027 as of December 4, 2001, which amount shall be
reduced by that portion of any Adequate Protection Payments thereafter made to
Heller through the Effective Date which is applied to the principal amount of
Heller's Allowed Class 3 Claim.

      5.4   Class 4 - Claims of the Domestic Banks.

                                      -32-
<PAGE>
            5.4.1 If and only if the Bank Support Agreement Condition is
satisfied or waived by AMCE and the Domestic Banks vote to accept the Plan,
Class 4 Claims shall receive the following treatment under the Plan (the
"Consensual Class 4 Treatment"): For purposes of the Plan, the Domestic Banks
shall be deemed to have Allowed Class 4 Claims in the aggregate amount of $44.6
million. On the Effective Date, or as soon thereafter as practicable, each
Holder of an Allowed Class 4 Claim will receive New AMCE Notes with a face
amount equal to 100% of its Allowed Class 4 Claim; provided, however, that each
Holder of an Allowed Class 4 Claim may elect to exercise the New AMCE Notes
Exchange Option, and receive Cash in an amount equal to 87.5% of the face amount
of the New AMCE Notes to which it would otherwise be entitled. Whether or not
the New AMCE Notes Exchange Option is exercised, the consideration provided for
herein shall be in full satisfaction of all Allowed Class 4 Claims for all
purposes, and without limiting the foregoing, will be deemed to fully satisfy
all Claims and rights of the Domestic Banks against Harcourt under the
Intercreditor Agreement.


            5.4.2 In the event the Bank Support Agreement Condition is not
satisfied or waived by AMCE, the treatment of Class 4 Claims under the Plan
shall be either, at the election of AMCE: (a) On the Effective Date, or as soon
thereafter as practicable, each Holder of an Allowed Class 4 Claim will receive
New AMCE Notes with a face amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of its
Allowed Class 4 Claim. In the event the Bankruptcy Court determines that the
fair market value (based on the average of the bid and ask prices on the trading
date immediately prior to the Effective Date) of the New AMCE Notes to be
distributed to the Holders of Allowed Class 4 Claims is less than the Allowed
Amount of such Claim, such Holders shall be entitled to receive: (a) additional
New AMCE Notes with a fair market value (as determined above) equal to any such
deficiency; or (b) such alternative treatment (the "Class 4 Alternative
Treatment") as designated by AMCE on or before the AMCE Election Deadline,
provided such Class 4 Alternative

                                      -33-
<PAGE>
Treatment does not require any reduction in the amount of the consideration that
would have been received by the Holders of Allowed Claims in any other Class
absent such Class 4 Alternative Treatment and, provided further, such Class 4
Alternative Treatment does not have a material adverse effect on the treatment
of any other Class of Claims under the Plan. The foregoing consideration under
either subparagraphs (a) or (b) shall be in full satisfaction of all Allowed
Class 4 Claims for all purposes, and without limiting the foregoing, will be
deemed to fully satisfy all claims and rights of the Domestic Banks against
Harcourt under the Intercreditor Agreement, provided, however, that if the
Bankruptcy Court enters a Final Order determining that the amount of the "Senior
Debt" (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) that the Holders of Allowed
Class 4 Claims are entitled to recover from Harcourt under the Intercreditor
Agreement is in excess of the Allowed Amount of their respective Allowed Class 4
Claims, such Holders shall be entitled to receive additional New AMCE Notes with
a fair market value (as determined above) equal to any such excess.

            5.4.3 AMCE shall have the right to pay Cash to such Holders of Class
4 Claims as it may select in lieu of part of the New AMCE Notes, at 100% of the
principal amount thereof, to the extent that AMCE's bond indentures restrict
AMCE's ability to issue New AMCE Notes in excess of a certain aggregate amount.

      5.5 Class 5 - Claims of the GECC Group. For purposes of the Plan, the GECC
Group shall be deemed to have Allowed Class 5 Claims in the aggregate amount of
$78.3 million less the GECC Excess Payments. Accordingly, all amounts of Allowed
Claims set forth in Sections 5.5.1 through 5.5.3 shall be reduced by a ratable
portion of the GECC Excess Payments.

            5.5.1 On the Effective Date, or as soon thereafter as practicable,
each Holder of an Allowed Class 5 Claim secured by identifiable equipment or
leaseholds (i.e., all members of the GECC Group excluding The Fifth Third
Leasing Company ("Fifth Third") and Bank Leumi Leasing Corp. ("Bank Leumi")),
whose Allowed Class 5 Claims for purposes of the Plan shall be $71.1 million in
the aggregate, will receive the following consideration: (a) New AMCE Notes with
a face amount equal to 90% of its Allowed Class 5 Claim (i.e., approximately $64
million in the aggregate); provided, however, that each such Holder of an
Allowed Class 5 Claim shall have the right to exercise the New AMCE Notes
Exchange Option for the New AMCE Notes to which it would otherwise be entitled
(such that such Holders may exercise the New AMCE

                                      -34-
<PAGE>
Notes Exchange Option to receive up to approximately $56 million in cash in the
aggregate); and (b) New AMCE Stock with an aggregate Plan Value equal to 4.5% of
its Allowed Class 5 Claim (i.e., approximately $3.2 million of aggregate Plan
Value).


            5.5.2 On the Effective Date, or as soon thereafter as practicable,
each Holder of an Allowed Class 5 Claim secured by unidentifiable equipment
(i.e., Fifth Third and Bank Leumi), whose Allowed Class 5 Claims shall not
exceed $7.2 million in the aggregate, will receive the following consideration
(a) New AMCE Notes with a face amount equal to 50% of its Allowed Class 5 Claim
(i.e., approximately $3.6 million in the aggregate); provided, however, that
each Holder of an Allowed Class 5 Claim shall have the right to exercise the New
AMCE Notes Exchange Option for the New AMCE Notes to which it would otherwise be
entitled (such that such Holders may exercise the New AMCE Notes Exchange Option
to receive up to approximately $3.15 million in cash in the aggregate); and (b)
New AMCE Stock with an aggregate Plan Value equal to 22.5% of its Allowed Class
5 Claim (i.e., approximately $1.62 million of aggregate Plan Value).


            5.5.3 AMCE shall have the right to pay Cash to such Holders of Class
5 Claims as it may select in lieu of part of the New AMCE Notes, at 100% of the
principal amount thereof, to the extent that AMCE's current bond indenture
restricts AMCE's ability to issue New AMCE Notes in excess of a certain
aggregate amount.


            5.5.4 Holders of Allowed Class 5 Claims who are "qualified
institutional buyers," as that term is defined in Rule 144A promulgated pursuant
to the Securities Act of 1933, shall be entitled to participate in the Equity
Financing in an amount of up to $6,250,000. Such Holders of Allowed Class 5
Claims shall be entitled to participate in such amount Pro Rata in proportion to
the amount of their Allowed Class 5 Claims and shall have over-subscription
rights to the extent other holders of Allowed Class 5 Claims do not subscribe
for their respective Pro Rata shares. Such participation shall be at the same
purchase price per share as the other participants in the Equity Financing. This
Section 5.5.4 shall not apply if AMCE elects to

                                      -35-
<PAGE>
modify the Plan under Section 5.10.7 or if an objection to the treatment of
Class 10 under the Plan is sustained by the Bankruptcy Court.

      5.6   Class 6 - Unsecured Claims.

            5.6.1 Each Holder of an Allowed Class 6 Claim will receive New AMCE
Stock with an aggregate Plan Value equal to such Holder's pro rata share of the
sum of (a) the Base Class 6 Recovery plus (b) the Conditional Class 6 Recovery
(if any), each as defined below after payment of, or provision for payment of
actual or anticipated Class 6 Distribution Expenses; provided, that in no event
shall Holders of Allowed Class 6 Claims receive New AMCE Stock with a Plan Value
in excess of 100% of their Allowed Claims minus the Class 6 Distribution
Expenses.

            5.6.2 The "Base Class 6 Recovery" shall be equal to: (v) $37.5
million (plus, if and only if (A) AMCE exercises its rights to require the
Debtors to reject any Newly Rejected Lease and (B) AMCE has been afforded the
reasonable opportunity to renegotiate the terms of any such Newly Rejected Lease
prior to such rejection, 32/45's (or 71.1%) of the Allowed Class 6 Claim of the
lessor arising as a result of such rejection of the Newly Rejected Leases); plus
(x) to the extent that any Class 6 Claims are allowed on account of the
rejection of the theatre leases known as Rancho (Unit 422), Galleria (Unit 744),
Lincoln Mall (Unit 870) or Deerfield 8 (Unit 922) (such Allowed Class 6 Claims
being hereinafter referred to in the aggregate as the "Allowed Designated Lease
Claims"), the positive amount (if any) that results from multiplying (i) the
lesser of $1.4 million or the Allowed Designated Lease Claims, minus (in either
case) $650,000 and (ii) that fraction, the numerator of which fraction is the
total Plan Value of the New AMCE Stock (plus, if applicable under clause (b) of
the Conditional Class 6 Recovery, the Plan Value of the Top-Up AMCE Stock and
any cash substituted by Harcourt therefor) that would have been distributed to
the holders of Allowed Class 6 Claims had the Allowed Designated Lease Claims
been zero, and the denominator of which is the total amount of the Allowed Class
6 Claims other than the Allowed Designated

                                      -36-
<PAGE>
Lease Claims; minus (y) the amount (if any) by which the aggregate amount of the
Allowed Deduction Claims exceeds the Deduction Claims Limit; plus (z) the amount
(if any) by which the aggregate amount of the Allowed Deduction Claims is less
then the Deduction Claims Limit. All Class 6 Distribution Expenses and all
distributions on account of all Allowed Convenience Claims shall be satisfied
from the Class 6 Recovery.

            5.6.3 The "Conditional Class 6 Recovery" shall be equal to the sum
of the following, which shall be conditioned upon occurrence of the conditions
described in clauses (a) and (b) and may therefore be zero:

            (a) If AMCE elects Option A, AMCE will make available for
distribution on account of the Allowed GCX Guaranty Claims New AMCE Stock with a
Plan Value equal to that fraction of the Allowed GCX Guaranty Claims, the
numerator of which is the total Plan Value of the New AMCE Stock (plus, if
applicable under clause (b) of the Conditional Class 6 Recovery, the Plan Value
of the Top-Up AMCE Stock and any cash substituted by Harcourt therefor) that
would have been distributed to the Holders of Allowed Class 6 Claims had AMCE
not elected Option A and this provision had not become effective, and the
denominator of which is the total amount of the Allowed Class 6 Claims other
than the Allowed GCX Guaranty Claims. The Plan Value of such New AMCE Stock
distributed with respect to each Allowed GCX Guaranty Claim shall be applied to
reduce the amount of debt outstanding under the JV Loan to which each Allowed
GCX Guaranty Claim relates; plus

            (b) to the extent any Class 6 Claims are Allowed on account of the
rejection of any of the Identified Leases (any such Allowed Claims being
"Allowed Identified Lease Claims"), Harcourt shall, at its own expense, purchase
AMCE Stock in the open market (or New AMCE Stock if agreed by AMCE) to be
delivered to the Class 6 Distribution Agent for distribution to the holders of
Allowed Class 6 Claims such that, when added to the New AMCE Stock made
available by AMCE under the Base Class 6 Recovery and any New AMCE Stock to be
distributed under clause (a) above, the AMCE Stock made available by Harcourt is
sufficient to enable holders of Allowed Class 6 Claims other than the holders of
Allowed Identified Lease

                                      -37-
<PAGE>
Claims to receive the same amount of AMCE Stock per dollar amount of their
Allowed Class 6 Claims as they would have received if the Allowed Identified
Lease Claims had not been allowed (the "Top-Up AMCE Stock"); provided, that
Harcourt may satisfy this obligation by delivering to the Class 6 Distribution
Agent, in Harcourt's discretion, either a number of shares of AMCE Stock equal
to the Top-Up AMCE Stock or cash in an amount equal to the market value of the
Top-Up AMCE Stock as of the Effective Date. Except as provided in the preceding
clause (b), Harcourt shall have no responsibility with respect to any
distributions to the Holders of any Allowed Class 6 Claim.


            (c) The Conditional Class 6 Recovery is intended to provide for the
same treatment to the holders of Allowed Class 6 Claims that are determined to
be such under the conditions described in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section
5.6.3 (in terms of the number of shares of AMCE Stock per dollar of Allowed
Class 6 Claims) as other holders of Allowed Class 6 Claims would receive if the
Claims described in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 5.6.3 had not become
Allowed Class 6 Claims, and the Conditional Class 6 Recovery shall be
interpreted accordingly.


            5.6.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
treatment of Allowed Class 6 Claims under the Plan is predicated upon the fact
that all of the Identified Leases (other than the Erie Commons, Summit Park and
Midway Mall leases, which shall be rejected) and all Assigned Leases have been
rejected or have been deemed rejected under section 365(d) of the Bankruptcy
Code. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
the Debtors have rejected or shall be deemed to have rejected all Identified
Leases and all Assigned Leases and neither the Identified Leases nor the
Assigned Leases shall constitute Newly Rejected Leases for the purposes of the
Plan.

      5.7   Class 7 - Convenience Claims

            5.7.1 As soon as practicable following the AMCE Class 6 Distribution
Date, each Holder of an Allowed Convenience Claim shall receive Cash paid from
the Class 6 Recovery (or the proceeds thereof), in an amount equal to seventy
percent (70%) of such

                                      -38-
<PAGE>
Holder's Allowed Convenience Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
Convenience Claim Amount exceeds $425,000.00 the Committee may elect, on or
before the Confirmation Date, to eliminate Class 7 of the Plan, in which event
each and every Allowed Convenience Claim shall be treated in all respects as an
Allowed Class 6 Claim and any election of the Holder thereof to reduce its
Allowed Claim to $500 shall be deemed null and void.

      5.8   Class 8 - GCX Unsecured Claims

            5.8.1 In the event AMCE elects Option B, on the Effective Date, or
as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable, each Holder of an Allowed Class 8
Claim shall receive New AMC Stock with a Plan Value or, at AMCE's option, Cash,
equal to nine percent (9%) of such Holder's Allowed Class 8 Claim; or such other
treatment as AMCE may elect on or before the AMCE Election Deadline, provided
such other treatment: (i) does not require any reduction in the amount of the
consideration that would be received by the Holders of Allowed Claims in any
other Class below that which would have been received had AMCE elected Option A;
and (ii) does not have a material adverse effect on the treatment of any other
Class of Claims as compared to the treatment that would have been received had
AMCE elected Option A.

      5.9   Class 9 - Claims of Harcourt.

            5.9.1 On the Effective Date, or as soon thereafter as practicable,
in full satisfaction of Harcourt's Class 9 Claims (i) Harcourt will receive Cash
in an amount equal to $1 million; and (ii) AMCE shall, as to each of the
Harcourt Leases either (a) agree to become a substitute guarantor of such
Harcourt Lease in exchange for the lessor under such Harcourt Lease releasing
Harcourt from all claims thereunder or (b) absent such a release of Harcourt by
the applicable lessor, provide an indemnification pursuant to an indemnification
agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to AMCE and Harcourt
(the "Harcourt Indemnification Agreement") to Harcourt against any further
liability related to such Harcourt Lease (which indemnification shall include
any and all costs and liabilities of Harcourt arising after the Effective Date
in connection with a default under such Harcourt Lease, including but not
limited to reasonable fees of counsel, but shall not include any guarantee fee
or other payment that is not

                                      -39-
<PAGE>
based upon actual costs incurred by Harcourt in satisfying or defending its
obligations under the applicable Harcourt Lease). The Harcourt Leases shall be
assumed or assumed and assigned as of the Effective Date, without any payment or
subsidy from Harcourt. No Harcourt Lease shall be rejected without Harcourt's
consent, unless otherwise agreed by AMCE and Harcourt in connection with the
Harcourt Lease renegotiations described below.

            5.9.2 AMCE acknowledges that Harcourt has paid certain Cure Claims
relating to the Plaza at Chapel lease (Unit 496) in the amount of $56,423.99 and
Centennial lease (Unit 942) in the amount of $90,986.67, and Harcourt shall have
an Allowed Administrative Claim and will be reimbursed for such payments on the
Effective Date in lieu of any Claims with respect to such Cure Claims by such
lessors. Such payments shall be deemed to constitute Cure Claims for purposes of
calculating Deduction Claims.

            5.9.3 Harcourt shall also be released from all claims of the
Domestic Banks under the Intercreditor Agreement, and the Reimbursement and
Security Agreement described therein shall terminate and be of no further force
or effect.

            5.9.4 AMCE shall use reasonable commercial efforts (which shall not
be interpreted to require AMCE to pay any amount other than its own attorneys'
fees) to renegotiate the Harcourt Leases prior to the Effective Date. Except as
provided in the following sentence, Harcourt shall be entitled to participate in
such renegotiations until the Effective Date, but direction and control of such
renegotiations shall be at AMCE's sole and absolute discretion. Harcourt shall
not be entitled to participate in renegotiation of the Reserved Leases;
provided, that AMCE shall keep Harcourt reasonably informed with respect to the
status of such negotiations and provided further that AMCE shall not seek or
obtain lease concessions on other leases AMCE may have with the lessors under
the Reserved Leases in lieu of lease concessions under the Reserved Leases
without Harcourt's consent. If the renegotiation of any Reserved Lease results
in an agreement with the lessor for a replacement lease or lease buyout within
the time frames set forth below, Harcourt will be entitled to the following: (1)
with respect to each Reserved Lease for which an agreement for a replacement
lease or lease buyout is executed prior



                                      -40-
<PAGE>
to the Effective Date, Harcourt will be entitled to receive New AMCE Stock with
a Plan Value of $250,000 on the Effective Date; and (2) with respect to each
Reserved Lease for which AMCE received a written proposal from the lessor for a
replacement lease or lease buyout prior to the Effective Date and for which AMCE
and such lessor execute an agreement for a replacement lease or lease buyout
within six (6) months after the Effective Date on terms that are at least as
favorable to the lessee (after taking into account any payment to Harcourt
pursuant to the Plan) as those contained in such proposal, Harcourt will be
entitled to receive New AMCE Stock with a Plan Value of $250,000 within ten (10)
business days following execution of such post-Effective Date agreement.

            5.9.5 Harcourt agrees that it will work cooperatively with AMCE with
respect to the renegotiation of the Harcourt Leases. Regardless of whether
Harcourt participates in a renegotiation, Harcourt shall receive the net present
value, using a 10% discount rate, of 50% of any rent reductions (net of
inducement payments, if any, paid by AMCE) that are renegotiated prior to the
Effective Date for any of the Harcourt Leases (excluding any rent reductions
that may be part of a replacement lease with respect to a Reserved Lease or a
lease buyout of a Reserved Lease, but otherwise including any rent reduction on
a Reserved Lease). For purposes of the foregoing, a rent reduction will be
deemed to have been renegotiated prior to the Effective Date if either (a) the
rent reduction is documented by an executed and fully effective lease amendment
(a "Harcourt Lease Amendment") prior to or on the Effective Date, or (b)
notwithstanding that a Harcourt Lease Amendment was not obtained by the
Effective Date, (1) the rent reduction was evidenced by a written proposal from
the lessor under the applicable Harcourt Lease prior to the Effective Date and
(2) a Harcourt Lease Amendment is executed within six (6) months following the
Effective Date that includes terms that are at least as favorable to the lessee
(after taking into account any payment to Harcourt pursuant to the Plan) as
those contained in such proposal. Amounts to which Harcourt is entitled under
this paragraph, if any, shall be payable in cash on the later of (1) the
Effective Date, or as soon thereafter as practicable, or (2) the date of
execution of the applicable Harcourt Lease Amendment.

                                      -41-
<PAGE>

            5.9.6 Furthermore, except for Springfield Mall, Virginia (Unit 867);
Southlake, Indiana (Unit 875); Ford City, Illinois (Unit 940); and Bay Plaza,
New York (Unit 902), AMCE shall not extend the term of any of the leases of
which Harcourt is a guarantor beyond its current term, unless Harcourt is
provided evidence reasonably satisfactory to it that it is not liable, or is
removed, as guarantor of the applicable lease for any such extension period.

            5.9.7 GCX shall also assign to Harcourt, without representation or
recourse, all of GCX's right, title and interest in, to and under any collateral
or security, including without limitation any letters of credit, guaranties and
other security or documents supporting the non-GCX assignee's or subtenant's
liability under any Assigned Leases under which Harcourt may have contingent
liability, whether as a guarantor, original tenant or otherwise.

            5.9.8 Harcourt's (and its Affiliates') recovery and distribution
under the Plan shall be exclusively as set forth in this treatment of Class 9
Allowed Claims, and Harcourt (and its Affiliates) shall not be entitled to
assert any Claim in Class 6 or any other Class, whether in its own name, in the
name of a third party landlord , as subrogee, as assignee or otherwise. As of
the Effective Date of the Plan, Harcourt (and its Affiliates) shall be deemed to
have withdrawn any and all proofs of claim asserted against the Debtors in any
and all such capacities, with prejudice.

      5.10  Class 10 - Interests in GCX.

            5.10.1 Subject to satisfaction of the Class 10 Participation
Conditions (as defined below), a limited liability company ("New Investments
LLC") will acquire 100% of the membership interests in GCC Investments LLC
("GCCI LLC") and, subject to certain conditions, the equity interests in New
Investments LLC will be distributed to (i) Holders of Allowed Interests, (ii)
AMCE or its designee and (iii) investors who participate in a $16,250,000 equity
financing to be conducted by New Investments LLC, as described in more detail
below. Immediately prior to such acquisition by New Investments LLC, any
investment portfolio assets, any net proceeds received after the filing of the
Plan with respect to or from a disposition of such assets not initiated by GCCI
LLC, and any furniture, fixtures and equipment that are owned by

                                      -42-
<PAGE>
GCC Investments, Inc. ("GCCI Inc.") will be transferred to GCCI LLC, subject to
any restrictions on transfers binding on GCCI Inc. with respect to such
investments.


            5.10.2 If and only if the Class 10 Participation Conditions are
satisfied, and not otherwise, Holders of Allowed Interests shall receive the
following consideration on the Effective Date, or as soon thereafter as
practicable:

                  (i) Each such Holder shall receive its Pro Rata Share of (i)
$100,000.00 Cash plus (ii) 10.416667% of the limited liability interests (the
"LLC Interests") of New Investments LLC (the "Class 10 Percentage"), which
percentage shall be increased to 14% if the Preferred LLC Interest Repurchase,
as described below, occurs. "Pro Rata Share" means the percentage calculated by
dividing such Holder's Allowed Common Stock Interest by the aggregate amount of
all Allowed Interests.

                  (ii) The distribution to each such Holder of its LLC Interests
shall be subject to and contingent upon the following conditions (the
"Distribution Conditions"): (i) the filing of the notification of election on
Form N-54A by New Investments LLC to be subject to the provisions of Sections 54
through 65 (applicable to business development companies) of the Investment
Company Act of 1940 (the "BDC Election"), (ii) effectiveness of the registration
of New Investments LLC on Form 10 under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (the "34 Act Registration"), and (iii) the effectiveness of
registration of New Investment LLC's investment manager (the "Investment
Manager") as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940
(the "Adviser Act Registration"), without, in the case of any of the BDC
Election, the 34 Act Registration or the Adviser Act Registration, the SEC
requiring any changes to the terms and provisions applicable to New Investments
LLC and the Investment Manager as described herein or in the Form 10 or
indicating that any such term or provision might violate a provision of law or
regulation or subject New Investments LLC, the Investment Manager or their
respective members, managers, employees or agents to any liability. If the
Distribution Conditions do not occur, New Investments LLC shall have the option
at the sole discretion of the Investment Manager to direct that no LLC Interests
shall be distributed to the Holders of

                                      -43-
<PAGE>
Allowed Interests. If New Investments LLC exercises such option, (i) the LLC
Interests which would otherwise be distributed to the Holders shall be held by
AMCE, or at AMCE's election, Reorganized GCX or another of AMCE's designees,
(ii) New Investments LLC shall withdraw or not make, as the case may be, its BDC
Election and 34 Act Registration and the Investment Manager shall withdraw or
not make the Adviser Act Registration, (iii) New Investments LLC will operate as
an investment company exempt from registration under the Investment Company Act
of 1940 (the "40 Act"), and (iv) the Holders of Allowed Interests will not
receive the Cash distribution described above. In such event, none of New
Investments LLC, the Investment Manager, the Reorganized Debtors or AMCE, nor
their respective members, managers, employees or agents shall have any liability
to the Holders of Allowed Interests if such Holders do not receive any
distribution of LLC Interests or Cash.

                  (iii) It is anticipated that New Investments LLC will file the
Form 10 prior to the Effective Date, and unless the SEC agrees to accelerated
consideration of the Form 10, the SEC's decision to declare the Form 10
effective under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "34 Act") shall require
at least 60 days from filing. Because the BDC Election will become effective
upon filing, it is anticipated that New Investments LLC will make the BDC
Election only upon the effectiveness of the 34 Act Registration. Accordingly,
any distribution of LLC Interests to Holders of Allowed Interests may be delayed
until several months after confirmation until the Distribution Conditions have
been fulfilled or waived.

            5.10.3 As a condition to the acquisition by New Investments LLC of
the equity interests in GCCI LLC, New Investments LLC shall have raised in an
equity financing (the "Equity Financing") $16,250,000 in invested or committed
capital. Investors in the Equity Financing will receive LLC Interests in New
Investments LLC, which LLC Interests will represent, after the issuance of the
Preferred LLC Interests and the Class 10 LLC Interests, 63.988095% of the equity
of New Investments LLC. In the event the Preferred LLC Interest Repurchase
occurs, the LLC Interests acquired by the investors in the Equity Financing will
represent 86% of the equity of New Investments LLC.

                                      -44-
<PAGE>

            5.10.4 The remaining equity interests in New Investments LLC will be
a special class of equity interests (the "Preferred LLC Interests") which will
be owned by AMCE, or at AMCE's election, Reorganized GCX or another of AMCE's
designees. The Preferred LLC Interests will represent 25.595238% of the equity
of New Investments LLC and will be entitled to receive a distribution priority
in an amount equal to $6.5 million (the "Preferred LLC Priority Amount"). The
Preferred LLC Interests will further be subject to an option in favor of New
Investments LLC to purchase all, but not less than all, of such Preferred LLC
Interests for $6.5 million in Cash within 30 days (the "Option Period") after
the Effective Date. In the event such option is not exercised, AMCE or its
designee shall have the right to put such Preferred LLC Interests to New
Investments LLC at any time during the seven (7) day period after the expiration
of the Option Period for such $6.5 million amount. (The exercise of either of
such option or such put is referred to as the "Preferred LLC Interest
Repurchase.") New Investments LLC shall not incur debt or grant liens upon its
assets without the consent of the holders of the Preferred LLC Interests while
they remain outstanding.

            5.10.5 The foregoing description of New Investment LLC is not
intended to be a comprehensive description of the governance and other
provisions of the agreement (the "New Investments LLC Agreement") forming and
governing New Investments LLC, which are described in more detail in the
Disclosure Statement and shall be set forth, together with the changes thereto
(if any) in the New Investments LLC Agreement to be filed with the Plan
Documentary Supplement. To the extent of any inconsistency between the Plan,
Disclosure Statement and the New Investments LLC Agreement, the New Investments
LLC Agreement shall govern.

            5.10.6 If (a) prior to February 4, 2002, members of the family of
Richard A. Smith or their affiliates (the "Smith Family") and New Investments
LLC have not executed an agreement obligating the Smith Family to provide the
Equity Financing and New Investments LLC to consummate the transactions
described herein with respect to the Class 10 treatment, subject only to the
conditions described herein, or (b) prior to the Confirmation Date, the

                                      -45-
<PAGE>
$16,250,000 to be raised in the Equity Financing has not been invested in or
committed to New Investments LLC (the "Class 10 Participation Conditions"), the
Holders of Allowed Interests shall receive no consideration under the Plan.

            5.10.7 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in
the event than any Class of Claims does not accept the Plan, and the Bankruptcy
Court determines that the proposed treatment of Class 10 as set forth herein
violates the provisions of section 1129(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code with
respect to the treatment of such nonaccepting Class, the treatment of Class 10
shall be modified in any manner elected by AMCE to the extent necessary to cause
the Plan not to violate the provisions of section 1129(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy
Code. In addition, if any party in interest objects to the treatment of Class 10
as set forth herein and the Bankruptcy Court sustains such objection, then the
Holders of Allowed Interests shall receive no consideration under the Plan. As a
matter of disclosure but not as an obligation under or pursuant to the Plan, in
such event Reorganized GCCI Inc. would retain all of its interest in GCCI LLC on
the Effective Date but AMCE would intend to cause the sale of such interest to
New Investments LLC after the Effective Date for $6.5 million.

            5.10.8 All Existing GCX Common Stock shall be deemed cancelled on
the Effective Date.

      5.11 Class 11 - Common Stock Options. On the Effective Date, all existing,
unexercised options to acquire Existing GCX Common Stock shall be cancelled, and
Holders of such options shall not receive or retain any property on account of
such options or any Claim or Interest arising out of or relating to such
options.

      5.12 Class 12 - Intercompany Claims. At the election of AMCE, and with the
agreement of Reorganized GCX and the applicable Reorganized Debtor, the Debtors,
with respect to each Intercompany Claim that is reflected on the Debtors' books
and records as of the Effective Date, may either (i) eliminate such Intercompany
Claim on the Effective Date either through (a) the declaration of intercompany
dividends and/or contributions to capital, or (b) cancellation of such
Intercompany Claim, or (ii) leave such Intercompany Claim unimpaired,

                                      -46-
<PAGE>
in which event such Intercompany Claim shall continue in full force and effect
notwithstanding the Confirmation Order and this Plan. Any other Intercompany
Claims that are not reflected on the Debtors books and records as of the
Effective Date shall be deemed to be released as of the Effective Date.


      5.13 Class 13 - Interests in Each Debtor Other than GCX. At the election
of AMCE, and with the agreement of Reorganized GCX and the applicable
Reorganized Debtor, the Allowed Interest represented by the common stock of each
Debtor, other than the Existing GCX Common Stock, shall be treated as follows:
(i) the holder of the common stock of such Debtor shall retain such common
stock; or (ii) the common stock of such Debtor shall be cancelled, and 100% of
the new common stock of such Debtor shall be issued to the existing holder of
such common stock or to such new holder as shall be designated by AMCE.

                                  ARTICLE 7

                     MEANS FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PLAN

      7.1 Acquisition of GCX by AMCE. On the Effective Date, pursuant to the
AMCE Acquisition Agreement: (i) all of the Existing GCX Common Stock shall be
cancelled, and 100% of the New GCX Common Stock shall be issued to AMCE or its
designee; (ii) all of the existing issued and outstanding common stock of GCT
shall be cancelled and one hundred percent (100%) of the New Common Stock of
Reorganized GCT shall be re-issued to AMCE or its designee; (iii) all of the
issued and outstanding stock of General Cinema International, Inc. shall be
conveyed to AMCE or its designee; and (iv) all of the existing issued and
outstanding common stock of GCCI Inc. shall be canceled and 100% of the new
common stock of Reorganized GCCI Inc. shall be issued to AMCE or its designee.
Thereafter, Reorganized GCX, the other Reorganized Debtors and their direct and
indirect non-Debtor subsidiaries (other than GCC Investments) shall be operated
as direct and indirect subsidiaries of AMCE, unless otherwise elected by AMCE;
and AMCE shall have no liability for any Claims against or other liabilities or
obligations of the Debtors or any of their non-Debtor subsidiaries, except for
(i) the specific obligations to issue New AMCE Securities or Cash in lieu
thereof as specifically provided under Sections 5.4 through 5.6 of the Plan and
(ii) the obligations to Harcourt provided under Section 5.9 of the Plan (and any
documents to be executed by AMCE in favor of Harcourt pursuant to Section 5.9 of
the Plan). Plan Documents corresponding to the final form of the transaction
under which AMCE will acquire the Reorganized Debtors shall be filed with the
Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court as a part of the Plan Documentary Supplement.


      7.2 Sources of Funds and Other Consideration Under The Plan. AMCE shall
deliver all New AMCE Stock and New AMCE Notes (or Cash in lieu thereof), and
Reorganized GCX or Reorganized GCT shall deliver all other Cash required for
distributions under the Plan other than distributions to Holders of Allowed
Convenience Claims, which shall be paid out of the Class 6 Recovery (except
that, to the extent that Reorganized GCX and Reorganized GCT have insufficient
Cash for this purpose, AMCE shall provide the Cash necessary to cover the
shortfall)

                                      -48-
<PAGE>
to the Distribution Agent, Class 6 Distribution Agent, or to Persons designated
in writing by the Distribution Agent and Class 6 Distribution Agent. The New
AMCE Stock distributable to the Holders of Allowed Class 6 Claims pursuant to
subparagraphs (u) (other than as a result of the rejection of any Newly Rejected
Leases), (w), (x) and/or (y) of Section 5.6.2 of the Plan (after reserving for
Disputed Deduction Claims pursuant to Section 7.3 of the Plan) shall be
delivered by AMCE to the Class 6 Distribution Agent or (if the Committee elects
to establish the Unsecured Stock Trust) to the Unsecured Stock Trustee on the
AMCE Class 6 Distribution Date. AMCE shall distribute to the Class 6
Distribution Agent or (if the Committee has elected to establish the Unsecured
Stock Trust) the Unsecured Stock Trustee any amounts distributable to the
Holders of Allowed Class 6 Claims as a result of the allowance of Claims on
account of Newly Rejected Leases as soon as practicable, but in any event no
more than ten (10) business days after any Newly Rejected Lease Claim becomes an
Allowed Claim. AMCE shall deliver to the Class 6 Distribution Agent or (if the
Committee has elected to established the Unsecured Stock Trust) the Unsecured
Stock Trustee (as defined below) any amounts distributable to the Holders of
Allowed Class 6 Claims pursuant to Sections 5.6.2 (v) or 5.6.3(a) of the Plan
and Harcourt shall deliver to the Class 6 Distribution Agent or (if the
Committee has established the Unsecured Stock Trust) the Unsecured Stock Trustee
any amounts distributable to the Holders of Allowed Class 6 Claims pursuant to
Section 5.6.3(b) of the Plan as soon as practicable, but in any event no later
than ten (10) business days after objections with respect to all Disputed Class
6 Claims have been finally resolved including all appeals thereof, and the
Post-Confirmation Committee indicates in writing that it has completed
objections with respect to all Disputed Class 6 Claims and has calculated the
final percentage distribution received, or to be received by the Holders of
Allowed Class 6 Claims, and provides AMCE with detailed supporting information
for such calculation; provided, however, that if AMCE disputes the
Post-Confirmation Committee's calculation, such distributions shall not be made
until ten (10) business days after such dispute is resolved by the Bankruptcy
Court (or pursuant to such other mechanism as may be agreed to by both the
Post-Confirmation Committee and AMCE). In the event the Committee

                                      -49-
<PAGE>
does not elect to establish the Unsecured Stock Trust, the Class 6 Distribution
Agent may reserve New AMCE Stock with a Plan Value not to exceed One Million
Dollars ($1,000,000) for the payment of actual or anticipated Class 6
Distribution Expenses and Allowed Convenience Claims and may sell or otherwise
dispose of no more than Twenty-five Thousand (25,000) shares of such New AMCE
Stock in any one week period. New Investments LLC shall issue and deliver to the
Distribution Agent or to Persons designated in writing by the Distribution Agent
all LLC Interests required for distributions under the Plan.


      7.3 Reserve for Disputed Deduction Claims. In calculating the amount of
New AMCE Stock to be distributed by AMCE to the Class 6 Distribution Agent from
and after the Effective Date, to the extent that any Deduction Claims are
Disputed Deduction Claims, the face amount of the Disputed Deduction Claim shall
be used for the proposes of such calculation, and, without respect to each
Disputed Deduction Claim, New AMCE Stock with a Plan Value equal to such face
amount will be withheld by AMCE until such Disputed Deduction Claim becomes an
Allowed Deduction Claim. To the extent that Disputed Deduction Claims become
Allowed Deduction Claims and the Allowed Amount of such Claim is less than the
face amount of such Claim that was used for purposes of withholding by AMCE, as
soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, AMCE shall make additional
distributions of New AMCE Stock with respect to such difference calculated in
accordance with Section 5.6 of the Plan. AMCE shall, at all times, reserve a
sufficient number of shares of New AMCE Stock so as to be able to fully perform
its obligations pursuant to this Section 7.3.


      7.4 Reserve for Newly Asserted Deduction Claims. In the event that,
following the initial distribution of New AMCE Stock to the Class 6 Distribution
Agent, a Deduction Claim that was not taken into account in making such initial
distribution of New AMCE Stock is filed or otherwise asserted against any
Reorganized Debtor: (i) the Class 6 Distribution Agent or Unsecured Stock
Trustee, as applicable, shall withhold from distribution and reserve New AMCE
Stock with a Plan Value equal to the face amount of such Deduction Claim; and
(ii) upon the entry of a Final Order determining the Allowed Amount of such
Deduction Claim, the Class

                                      -50-
<PAGE>
6 Distribution Agent or the Unsecured Stock Trustee, as applicable, shall
deliver to AMCE New AMCE Stock with a Plan Value equal to such Allowed Amount
(or, if the Class 6 Distribution Agent or Unsecured Stock Trustee has
insufficient New AMCE Stock to do so, cash in an amount equal to the difference
between such Allowed Amount and the Plan Value of the New AMCE Stock which is so
delivered to AMCE, to the extent still in the possession of the Class 6
Distribution Agent or Unsecured Stock Trustee).

      7.5 Unsecured Stock Trust. No later than ten (10) business days prior to
the Confirmation Hearing, the Committee may elect to create an Unsecured Stock
Trust on the Effective Date for the purpose of receiving, liquidating and
distributing the Class 6 Recovery to the Holders of Allowed Class 6 Claims. As a
condition to such election by the Committee, the Unsecured Stock Trustee shall
enter into the Stock Disposition Agreement with AMCE in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to both the Committee and AMCE which shall, among other
things, establish parameters for the orderly liquidation of the New AMCE Stock,
and which agreement shall be Filed as part of the Plan Documentary Supplement.
The terms of the Unsecured Stock Trust shall be governed by an agreement (the
"Unsecured Stock Trust Agreement") and the disposition of New AMCE Stock
distributed to the Unsecured Stock Trust shall be governed by the Stock
Disposition Agreement, both to be filed by the Committee as part of the Plan
Documentary Supplement no later than ten (10) business days prior to the
Confirmation Hearing.

            7.5.1 Beneficiaries. The beneficiaries of the Unsecured Stock Trust
shall be the Holders of Allowed Claims in Class 6. The net proceeds allocable to
the Holders of Claims in Class 6 will be distributed by the trustee to the
Persons entitled to such distributions in accordance with the allocation
percentages provided under the Plan. Neither AMCE nor the Reorganized Debtors
shall have any liability or responsibility with respect to such distribution by
the trustee of the Unsecured Stock Trust.

            7.5.2 Trustee. The trustee (the "Unsecured Stock Trustee") of the
Unsecured Stock Trust shall be appointed by the Committee and disclosed no later
than ten (10) days prior

                                      -51-
<PAGE>
to the Confirmation Hearing. The trustee shall be the exclusive trustee of the
assets of the Unsecured Stock Trust for purposes of 31 U.S.C. Section 3713(b)
and 26 U.S.C. Section 6012(b)(3). Powers, rights and responsibilities of the
trustee shall be specified in the Unsecured Stock Trust Agreement and shall
include the authority and responsibility to: (a) receive, manage and liquidate
the Class 6 Recovery and deposit sale proceeds in interest-bearing trust
accounts; (b) defend, prosecute and, if appropriate, compromise claims arising
in respect to trust assets; (c) pay taxes or other obligations incurred by the
trust; (d) retain and compensate from the trust assets, without further order of
the Bankruptcy Court, the services of professionals to advise and assist in the
administration, prosecution and distribution of trust assets, and (e) calculate
and implement distributions of trust assets. Other rights and duties of the
trustee and the beneficiaries shall be as set forth in the Unsecured Stock Trust
Agreement.

            7.5.3 Funding. The costs of administration of the Unsecured Stock
Trust will be funded from the Class 6 Recovery.

      7.6 Substantive Consolidation for Purposes of Claim Allowance and Plan
Distributions. Each Debtor shall be substantively consolidated with each other
Debtor, nunc pro tunc to the Petition Date, solely for purposes of the allowance
of Claims and distributions under the Plan and of confirmation, consummation and
implementation of the Plan, as follows: On the Effective Date, nunc pro tunc to
the Petition Date, (i) solely for the purposes of distribution under the Plan,
the assets and liabilities of each Debtor shall be deemed to be the assets and
liabilities of all of the Debtors and consolidated into a single estate; (ii)
all guarantees by any Debtor of the obligations of any other Debtor existing
prior to the Effective Date (regardless whether such guarantee is secured,
unsecured, liquidated, unliquidated, contingent, or disputed) shall be deemed
liquidated so that any Claim against any Debtor and any guarantee thereof
executed by any other Debtor, shall be deemed to be a single obligation of the
consolidated Debtors; (iii) any joint liability (including, but not limited to
joint and several liability) of any of the Debtors with one another shall be
deemed to be a single obligation of the consolidated Debtors; (iv) each and
every proof of claim filed or to be filed in the Cases, shall be deemed filed


                                      -52-
<PAGE>
against the consolidated Debtors, and shall be deemed a single Claim against and
obligation of the consolidated Debtors, as applicable; and (v) all duplicative
claims (identical in both amount and subject matter) Filed against or deemed
Filed against more than one of the Debtors shall be automatically expunged so
that only one Claim survives against the consolidated Debtors (but in no way
shall such surviving Claim be deemed Allowed by reason of this Section). All
Claims based upon guarantees of collection, payment or performance made by any
Debtor as to the obligations of any other Debtor or of any other Person shall be
discharged, released and of no further force and effect; provided, however, that
nothing herein shall affect the obligations of each of the Debtors under the
Plan.

      In addition, each of the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors shall be vested
with equal authority (a) to be heard with respect to the allowance or
disallowance of Claims (except Claims in Class 6) and requests for payment of
Administrative Claims, including but not limited to filing, prosecuting, and
settling objections thereto, (b) subject to the rights vested in the
Post-Confirmation Committee pursuant to Section 10.2 of the Plan, to commence,
prosecute, recover on account of, and settle Rights of Action, and (c) to
enforce the terms of this Plan and the Confirmation Order, including but not
limited to the Debtors' discharge, on behalf of each of the other Debtors and
Reorganized Debtors and their estates. Notwithstanding any other provisions of
this Section 7.6, the substantive consolidation for the purposes described above
shall not affect: (i) the Intercompany Claims and Interests in the Debtors,
which shall be treated as provided in this Plan, or (ii) the legal and
organizational structure of the Debtors, which shall be maintained, except as
otherwise provided in this Plan or as modified following the Effective Date at
the election of Reorganized GCX or AMCE. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Section 7.6, in the event that AMCE elects Option B, the foregoing
provisions of Section 7.6 shall be applicable to all of the Debtors except GCX,
and GCX shall not be substantively consolidated with any other Debtor.

      7.7         Corporate Restructuring Program and Continued Corporate
Existence of Reorganized Debtors.

                                      -53-

                  7.7.1 On the Effective Date, the Debtors shall implement the
Corporate Restructuring Program that is set forth in the Plan Documentary

Restructuring Program, certain of the Debtor Affiliates either shall (i) be

acquired by other surviving Debtors or newly-created Affiliates of the Debtors,
(iii) transfer some or all of their assets to other Debtors or newly-created
Affiliates of the Debtors, or (iv) be dissolved, with any assets of such
dissolved Debtor transferred to one or more of the other Debtors or
newly-created Affiliates of the Debtors. The Debtors and Reorganized Debtors are
authorized to take whatever corporate, joint venture, partnership, or limited
liability company action is necessary or advisable in order to accomplish the
Corporate Restructuring Program.

                  7.7.2 Except as provided for in the Corporate Restructuring
Plan, each of the Debtors shall, as a Reorganized Debtor, continue to exist
after the Effective Date as a separate legal entity, with all powers of a
corporation, limited liability company, joint venture, or partnership, as
applicable, under the laws of their respective states of incorporation,
formation, or organization, and without prejudice to any right to alter or
terminate such existence (whether by merger, acquisition, or otherwise) under
such applicable State law.

         7.8 Issuance of New Stock.

                  7.8.1 On the Effective Date, Reorganized GCX shall be deemed

issuance of new Investment, Inc. common stock to CDI, each in accordance with
the Plan, consistent with the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation

paid and non-assessable.

                                      -54-
<PAGE>
         7.9 Amended and Restated Certificates of Incorporation or Charters and
Bylaws. As of the Effective Date, the certificates or articles of incorporation
or charter (or document of similar effect with respect to any Reorganized Debtor
that is not a corporation) of each of the Reorganized Debtors shall be the
Amended and Restated Certificates of Incorporation or Charters substantially in
the form of the exemplary documents included in the Plan Documentary Supplement.

other provisions, prohibit the issuance of non-voting equity securities to the
extent required by section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code. As of the
Effective Date, the bylaws of each of the Reorganized Debtors that are

the Confirmation Order without the need for any corporate, partnership, limited
liability company, joint venture, director, stockholder, partner, member, or
venturer action.

         7.10 Management/Board of Directors. On the Effective Date, the

continue to pay on and after the Effective Date all retiree benefits (within the
meaning of section 1114 of the Bankruptcy Code), at the level established in
accordance with section 1114 of the Bankruptcy Code, for the duration of the
period for which the Debtors have obligated themselves to provide such benefits.

modify such plans. Reorganized GCX will continue as plan sponsor of the GC

the Effective Date.

         7.12 Corporate Actions. On the Effective Date, all actions contemplated

corporate action required by the Debtors or by Reorganized Debtors in connection
with the Plan shall be deemed to have occurred and shall be in effect pursuant
to the Bankruptcy Code, without any requirement of further action by the

dispose of property without supervision by the Bankruptcy Court or the United
States Trustee and free of any restrictions of the Bankruptcy Code or the
Bankruptcy Rules. As of the Effective Date, all property of the Reorganized
Debtors shall be free and clear of all Claims, Liens, encumbrances, and other

<PAGE>
         7.14 Closing of Cases. Except as set forth below with respect to GCT,
and, under certain circumstances, GCX, all of the Cases will be closed as of the
Effective Date (and, to the extent necessary, this Plan shall be deemed a motion
requesting the closing of the Cases in accordance with this Section 7.13 of the
Plan), or as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable; provided further, that
GCT will move to close its case promptly when requested to do so by the
Post-Confirmation Committee after resolution of all Disputed Deduction Claims,
Disputed Class 6 Claims and Disputed Class 7 Claims; and (but only if Option B
is exercised by AMCE) the GCX Case will be closed promptly after resolution of
all Disputed Class 8 Claims. Upon the closing of the Case of a Reorganized
Debtor, all rights vested in such Reorganized Debtor under this Plan (including
but not limited to the rights to object to or otherwise be heard with respect to
Claims and requests for payment of Administrative Claims, to commence,
prosecute, recover on account of, or settle Rights of Action, and to enforce the
terms of this Plan and the Confirmation Order, including but not limited to the
Debtors' discharge and the injunction provisions of this Plan), shall vest in
each Reorganized Debtor that has not closed its Case. All fees due under
Section 1930(a)(6) of title 28 of the United States Code in respect of such
closed Cases shall be paid or reserved as set forth in Section 16.1 below.

         7.15 Cancellation of Notes, Instruments, Common Stock, Preferred Stock

                                   ARTICLE 8

                    EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES

         8.1 Assumption Generally. Effective upon the Effective Date, each
executory contract and unexpired leases of the Debtors listed on the Schedule of
Assumed Contracts to be Filed and served by the Debtors at least twenty (20)
days prior to the Confirmation Hearing (including, without limitation, the
Harcourt Leases) (collectively, "Assumed Contracts and Leases" and,
individually, an "Assumed Contract or Lease") shall, at the election of AMCE, be
assumed by the Debtor in Possession which is party thereto or lessee thereunder
or shall be assumed and assigned to another Reorganized Debtor or to an AMCE
Affiliate (including,


                                      -58-
<PAGE>
without limitation, as part of the Corporate Restructuring Program). In the
event that AMCE elects to have the Debtor in Possession which is a party to or
lessee under an Assumed Contract or Lease assume and assign such Assumed
Contract or Lease, notice of such proposed assumption and assignment shall be
given to the non-Debtor party no later than thirty (30) days prior to the
Confirmation Hearing. Absent such notice given with respect to an Assumed
Contract or Lease, AMCE shall be deemed to have elected to have such Assumed
Contract or Lease assumed, but not assumed and assigned, by the Debtor in
Possession which is party thereto, and, on the Effective Date, such Debtor, as
Reorganized Debtor, shall be deemed to have assumed such Assumed Contract or
Lease. The assumption, or assumption and assignment, of any Assumed Contracts or
Leases pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.1 shall be only to the
extent that such Assumed Contracts or Leases constitute executory contracts and
unexpired leases within the meaning of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code.
Inclusion of a matter in the Schedule of Assumed Contracts does not constitute
an admission by the Debtors, Debtors in Possession, Committee or AMCE that (i)
such matter is an executory contract or unexpired lease within the meaning of
section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) the Debtors must assume such matter in
order to continue to receive or retain rights, benefits, or performance
thereunder or that any Claim under such matter must be paid or default cured if
it is not an executory contract or unexpired lease, or (iii) such matter is a
valid contract or lease. Any contract or lease assumed, or assumed and assigned,
pursuant to this Plan shall be assumed, or assumed and assigned, as previously
amended or otherwise modified by the parties thereto, whether before or after
the Petition Date. To the extent that the Bankruptcy Court or any other court of
competent jurisdiction determines, either before, on, or after the Effective
Date, that any agreement in the form of a lease of real or personal property
identified for assumption in this Article 8 of the Plan, is, in fact, a secured
transaction, the resulting secured indebtedness arising from such determination
(and any Deficiency Claims relating thereto) shall be treated in accordance with
the applicable section of the Plan. Each executory contract and unexpired lease
assumed or assumed and assigned pursuant to this Article 8 by any Debtor shall
revest in and be fully


                                      -59-
<PAGE>
enforceable by the Debtor which assumed it, as Reorganized Debtor (in the case
of an assumed contract or lease), or by the assignee (in the case of an assumed
and assigned contract or lease) in accordance with its terms, except as modified
by the provisions of the Plan, any order of the Bankruptcy Court authorizing and
providing for its assumption or assumption and assignment, or applicable federal
law.

         8.2 Assumption of Documents Supplementary to Executory Contracts. Each
executory contract and unexpired lease of the Debtors which is assumed pursuant
to the Plan shall include: (i) modifications, amendments, supplements,
restatements, or other agreements made directly or indirectly by any agreement,
instrument, or other document that in any manner affects such executory contract
or unexpired lease, irrespective of whether such agreement, instrument, or other
document is listed in the Schedule of Assumed Contracts or in the Schedules; and
(ii) executory contracts appurtenant to the premises listed on such Schedule of
Assumed Contracts, Schedules, or other document, including all easements,
licenses, permits, rights, privileges, immunities, options, rights of first
refusal, powers, uses, usufructs, reciprocal easement agreements, vault, tunnel
or bridge agreements or franchises, and any other interest in real estate or
rights in rem to such premises, unless any of the foregoing agreements are
rejected in accordance with Section 8.6 of the Plan.

         8.3 Cure Claim Amounts. The Schedule of Assumed Contracts specifies the
amount ("Cure Claim Amount"), if any, that the Debtors believe must be tendered
on the Effective Date, in order to provide cure and compensation in accordance
with sections 365(b)(1)(A) & (B) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to each
matter listed on such Schedule. In the event that any party to a contract or
lease listed on the Schedule of Assumed Contracts contends that the Cure Claim
Amount does not correctly set forth the amount that must be paid under sections
365(b)(1)(A) and (B) in order to assume or assume and assign such contract or
lease (such amount being the "Required Cure Payment"), such party must file with
the Bankruptcy Court and serve upon counsel for the Debtors, the Committee, and
AMCE a written statement and an accompanying affidavit in support thereof
specifying the amounts allegedly owing as the Required Cure


                                      -60-
<PAGE>
Payment no later than ten days before the commencement of the Confirmation
Hearing. Failure timely to file and serve such statement shall result in the
determination that the Reorganized Debtors' tender of the Cure Claim Amount, as
specified in the Schedule of Assumed Contracts, shall provide full cure and
compensation for any and all defaults and unpaid obligations under such assumed
or assumed and assigned executory contract or unexpired lease, and that no other
amounts are owing thereunder as of the Confirmation Date. The Debtors, the
Committee and AMCE reserve the right to respond to and challenge any objection
filed by any party to an executory contract or unexpired lease under this
Section. To the extent the Debtors, the Committee or AMCE disagree with any
objection filed by any party to an executory contract or unexpired lease under
this paragraph, any disputes as to the amount of the Required Cure Payment shall
be resolved by a Final Order, which Final Order specifying the Required Cure
Payment may be entered after the Effective Date. Each Required Cure Payment
shall be made on the later of (i) thirty (30) days after the Effective Date, or
as soon thereafter as is practicable, (ii) resolution by a Final Order of any
dispute with respect to the amount of such Required Cure Payment, or (iii) at
such time as may otherwise be agreed by the parties to any particular contracts
or leases.

         8.4 Approval of Assumptions and Assumptions and Assignments. Subject to
the occurrence of the Effective Date, the Confirmation Order (except as
otherwise provided therein) shall constitute an order of the Bankruptcy Court
approving (a) the assumption or assumption and assignment of executory contracts
and unexpired leases by the Reorganized Debtors as provided for in this Plan
pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code effective as of the Effective
Date, without penalty of any kind and (b) to the extent not subject to a timely
objection as set forth in Section 8.2 hereof, the Cure Claim Amounts set forth
in the Schedule of Assumed Contracts pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy
Code, effective as of the Effective Date. The assumption or assumption and
assignment, as applicable, of any executory contract or unexpired lease under
the Plan shall be authorized notwithstanding the existence of any cross-default
provision or other provision in such contract or lease that conditions the right
of the

                                      -61-
<PAGE>
Debtors or the obligations of the non-debtor parties on (i) the insolvency or
financial condition of any of the Debtors or any of their affiliates, or (ii)
performance under any other contract or agreement. Any breach, default, or
failure to perform under any contract or agreement that is not assumed, or
assumed and assigned, by the Debtors shall in no way constitute grounds to
terminate the Debtors', Reorganized Debtors', or any of their assignees' rights
under any contract or lease that is assumed, or assumed and assigned, under this
Plan, or excuse non-performance by the other party to such contract or lease, or
otherwise affect, modify, or reduce the rights of the Debtors, Reorganized
Debtors, or their assignees under such assumed, or assumed and assigned,
contract or lease.

         8.5      Objections to Assumption or Assumption and Assignment of
                  Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases.

                  8.5.1 Any party objecting to a Debtor's proposed assumption or
assumption and assignment of an executory contract or unexpired lease based on a
lack of adequate assurance of future performance or on any ground other than the
adequacy of the Cure Claim Amount set forth in the Schedule of Assumed
Contracts, shall file and serve a written objection to the assumption of such
contract or lease within the same deadline and in the same manner established
for filing objections to Confirmation of this Plan. Failure to file and serve an
objection within the time period set forth above shall constitute the non-Debtor
party's consent to the assumption and revestment or assumption and assignment of
those contracts and leases, including an acknowledgment that the proposed
assumption or assumption and assignment satisfies all requirements of Bankruptcy
Code section 365 (other than as to the Required Cure Payment).

                  8.5.2 If any party files an objection to assumption or
assumption and assignment based on any ground other than the adequacy of the
Cure Claim Amount set forth in the Schedule of Assumed Contracts, and the
Bankruptcy Court ultimately determines that the applicable Debtor cannot assume
or assume and assign the executory contract or unexpired lease or that the
applicable Debtor or assignee cannot provide adequate assurance of future

                                      -62-
<PAGE>
performance as proposed or in any modified proposal submitted by the Debtors or
Reorganized Debtors or proposed assignee, then the unexpired lease or executory
contract shall automatically thereupon be deemed to have been excluded from the
Schedule of Assumed Contracts and shall be rejected pursuant to Section 8.6
hereof, subject to any rights AMCE may have under the AMCE Letter of Intent or
the AMCE Acquisition Agreement based on such rejection.

                  8.5.3 To the extent that any objections to the Cure Claim
Amounts set forth in the Schedule of Assumed Contracts are timely filed and
served and such objections are not resolved by the Debtors and the objecting
parties, the Bankruptcy Court shall resolve such disputes at a hearing to be
held at a date to be determined by the Bankruptcy Court at the Confirmation
Hearing. The resolution of such disputes shall not affect the Debtors'
assumption or assumption and assignment of the contracts or leases that are
subject of such dispute but rather shall affect only the amount of the Required
Cure Payment that the Debtors must pay in order to assume or assume and assign
such contract or lease.

         8.6 Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases to be Rejected.

                  8.6.1 Effective as of, and subject to the occurrence of, the
Effective Date, all executory contracts and unexpired leases that exist between
the Debtors and any other entity that have not previously been assumed or
rejected and that are not listed on the Schedule of Assumed Contracts including,
but not limited to, all executory contracts and unexpired leases listed on the
Schedule of Rejected Contracts to be Filed and Served by the Debtors at least
twenty (20) days prior to the commencement of the Confirmation Hearing shall be
rejected as of the Effective Date. The Debtors may amend the Schedule of Assumed
Contracts with the consent of AMCE at any time prior to the Confirmation Hearing
by Filing such amendment with the Bankruptcy Court and serving it on parties
directly affected by the amendment, in which event the Schedule of Assumed
Contracts, as so amended, shall constitute the "Schedule of Assumed Contracts"
for purposes of the Plan.

                  8.6.2 The Confirmation Order shall constitute an order of the
Bankruptcy Court approving such rejections on the Confirmation Date, pursuant to
section 365 of the Bankruptcy


                                      -63-
<PAGE>
Code, effective as of the Effective Date. To the extent that a matter that
provides the Debtors with property rights does not constitute an executory
contract or unexpired lease, rejection shall not constitute an abandonment by
the Debtors of such property rights. Any non-Debtor party to an executory
contract or unexpired lease identified for rejection as provided herein may,
within the same deadline and in the same manner established for filing
objections to Confirmation, file any objection thereto. Failure by any such
non-Debtor party to file any such objection within the time period set forth
above shall constitute a consent to the rejection by such non-Debtor party.

         8.7 Bar Date for Rejection Damages. If the rejection of an executory
contract or unexpired lease pursuant to Section 8.5 above gives rise to a Claim
by the other party or parties to such contract or lease, such Claim, to the
extent that it is timely filed and is an Allowed Secured Claim, shall be
classified in Class 2, and to the extent that it is timely filed and is an
Allowed Unsecured Claim, shall be classified in Class 6; provided, however, that
in either event any Claim arising out of the rejection of an executory contract
or unexpired lease shall be forever barred and shall not be enforceable against
the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, their Affiliates, their successors or
estates, or their properties, and shall not be entitled to any distribution
under the Plan, unless a proof of claim for such Claim is filed and served on
the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors within thirty (30) days after the earlier of
(a) the date of entry of the first order of the Bankruptcy Court approving the
rejection of the executory contract or unexpired lease, or (b) the Confirmation
Date.

         8.8 Indemnification and Certain Other Rights of Directors, Officers and
Employees. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the obligations of
the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors to indemnify any Person or Entity serving at
any time on or prior to the Effective Date as one of their directors, officers
or employees by reason of such Person's or Entity's service in such capacity, or
as a director, officer or employee of any other corporation or legal entity, to
the extent provided in any certificate of incorporation, by-law, or other
similar constituent document or by statutory law or written agreement with the
Debtors, (collectively, the "Indemnity Obligations") shall be limited to the
extent of coverage therefor under GCX's existing Directors


                                      -64-
<PAGE>
and Officers Insurance Policy (the "D&O Policy"), as augmented by any "tail
coverage" (the "Tail Coverage") purchased with respect to such D&O Policy on or
before the Effective Date, the premium cost for which shall be funded by AMCE in
an amount not to exceed $350,000. In no event will the cost of the Tail Coverage
be funded or paid for by the Debtors and the amount of the premium relating to
the Tail Coverage will not be deemed to be a Deduction Claim. In addition, the
rights of the officers and directors of GCX who are serving as such as of
December 6, 2001, under the existing by-laws of GCX shall be preserved against
Reorganized GCX and Reorganized GCT to the extent of their right to advancement
of legal fees and expenses under such by-laws up to an aggregate maximum amount
of $250,000 for all individuals, claims and occurrences (subject to
replenishment by any reimbursement received by Reorganized GCX or Reorganized
GCT from any source). Except to the extent specifically preserved by this
Section 8.8, all Indemnity Obligations shall be fully and completely discharged
as of the Effective Date and shall be of no further force and effect following
the Effective Date.

         8.9 GCT Programs. Without acknowledging any legal obligation to do so,
the Reorganized Debtors intend to honor all gift certificates, VIP Program
Vouchers and discount tickets issued by the Debtors for use in domestic
theaters, to the extent such were issued in accordance with applicable law and
are otherwise valid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither AMCE nor the
Reorganized Debtors are assuming any liability under the Plan with respect to
the issuance of such gift certificates, VIP Program Vouchers or discount
tickets.

            8.10 Certain Compensation and Benefit Programs. The Reorganized
Debtors will honor the Debtors' obligations under the Debtors' court-approved
employee retention programs as follows: (a) December 28, 2000 Preliminary Order
on Debtors' Motion to (i) Assume Executory Contracts with Certain Employees;
(ii) Make Certain Severance Payments in the Ordinary Course of Business; and
(iii) Honor Retention Obligations in the Ordinary Course of Business; (b) March
16, 2001 Order Authorizing the Debtors to Assume Senior Executive Agreements, as
Amended; (c) March 16, 2001 Order Authorizing Debtors to Amend Exhibit C to the
Motion to (i) Assume Executory Contracts with Certain Employees; (ii) Make
Certain


                                      -65-
<PAGE>
Severance Payments in the Ordinary Course of Business; and (iii) Honor Retention
Obligations in the Ordinary Course of Business and (d) October 16, 2001 Order
Authorizing Debtors to Extend Enhanced Severance Benefits.

                                   ARTICLE 9

                                  DISTRIBUTIONS

         9.1 Distributions to Distribution Agent. In the event that the
Reorganized Debtors do not serve as the Distribution Agent for distributions to
be made to holders of Claims other than Class 6 Claim the Reorganized Debtors or
AMCE, as the case may be, shall transmit or cause to be transmitted to the
Distribution Agent sufficient Cash and New AMCE Securities to enable the
Distribution Agent to make all distributions under this Plan other than the
distributions to be made to holders of Class 6 Claims. No later than ten (10)
days prior to the First Class 6 Distribution Date, AMCE shall distribute to the
Class 6 Distribution Agent New AMCE Stock having a Plan Value equal to that
which would be required if no Newly Rejected Leases were rejected, calculated in
accordance with Section 7.3, above. At such time as the Allowed Amount of all
Claims arising out of the rejection of the Newly Rejected Leases has been
established, AMCE shall transmit to the Class 6 Distribution Agent additional
New AMCE Stock having a Plan Value equal to the amount by which the total Plan
Value of the New AMCE Stock to which Class 6 is entitled under the terms of the
Plan, exceeds the Plan Value of all New AMCE Stock previously distributed to the
Class 6 Distribution Agent.

         9.2 Distributions.

                  9.2.1 Distribution Agent. The Distribution Agent shall be
responsible for all distributions required to be made by the Reorganized Debtors
under the Plan, except for distributions to Holders of Class 6 Claims.
Reorganized GCX or Reorganized GCT may act as the Distribution Agent. The
Post-Confirmation Committee shall select the Class 6 Distribution Agent, which
may be the trustee of the Unsecured Stock Trust, who shall be responsible for
all distributions required to be made to Holders of Class 6 Claims. The
Distribution Agent and Class 6 Distribution Agent may employ one or more
sub-agents on such terms and conditions as


                                      -66-
<PAGE>
they may agree in their discretion. Reorganized GCX or Reorganized GCT and the
trustee of the Unsecured Stock Trust, as applicable, shall not be required to
provide any bond in connection with the making of any distributions pursuant to
the Plan. However, if the Distribution Agent is any Person other than
Reorganized GCX or Reorganized GCT or the trustee of the Unsecured Stock Trust,
such Person shall be required to provide such bond on terms and in an amount to
be approved by the Bankruptcy Court. All costs and expenses incurred in
connection with distributions and administration of the Plan other than with
respect to Class 6 thereof, including, without limitation, the fees and
expenses, if any, of the Distribution Agent and professionals and sub-agents
employed by the Distribution Agent, shall be borne by Reorganized GCX or
Reorganized GCT. All Class 6 Distribution Expenses shall be satisfied from the
sale by the Class 6 Distribution Agent, as and when necessary, of the New AMCE
Stock and AMCE Stock (or from cash in lieu thereof paid by Harcourt) otherwise
distributable pursuant to the Plan to the Holders of Allowed Class 6 Claims.

                  9.2.2 Dates of Distributions. Any distribution required to be
made on the Effective Date shall be deemed timely if made as soon as practicable
after such date and, in any event, within thirty (30) days after such date. Any
distribution required to be made upon a Claim becoming an Allowed Claim (other
than an Allowed Class 6 Claim ) or Interest becoming an Allowed Interest shall
be deemed timely if made as soon as practicable after the Claim or Interest has
become Allowed. Distributions to Holders of Allowed Class 6 Claims shall be made
on one or more Class 6 Distribution Dates. The Class 6 Distribution Agent shall
only make distributions to the Holders of Allowed Class 6 Claims after
establishing an adequate reserve (the "Class 6 Expense Reserve") to satisfy the
actual and anticipated Class 6 Distribution Expenses.

                  9.2.3 Manner of Distribution. Monetary distributions may be
made in Cash, by wire transfer or by a check drawn on a domestic bank.
Distribution of New AMCE Securities and New GCC Investments Preferred Stock
shall be made by the issuance and delivery of such securities.

                                      -67-
<PAGE>
                  9.2.4 Limitation on Liability. Neither the Debtors, the
Reorganized Debtors, the Committee, the Post-Confirmation Committee, AMCE nor
any of their respective employees, officers, agents, or professional or
Affiliates shall be liable for (i) any acts or omissions (except for gross
negligence or willful misconduct) in connection with implementing the
distribution provisions of this Plan and the making or withholding of
distributions pursuant to the Plan, or (ii) any change in the value of
distributions made pursuant to the Plan resulting from any delays in making such
distributions in accordance with the Plan's terms (including but not limited to
any delays caused by the resolution of Disputed Claims or the determination of
Deduction Claims).

         9.3 Old Instruments and Securities.

                  9.3.1 Surrender and Cancellation of Instruments and
Securities. As a condition to receiving any distribution pursuant to the Plan,
each Person holding any stock, note or other instrument or security
(collectively "Instruments or Securities" and individually an "Instrument or
Security") evidencing an existing Claim or Interest against or in a Debtor must
surrender such Instrument or Security to the Distribution Agent or Class 6
Distribution Agent, as applicable.

                  9.3.2 Rights of Persons Holding Old Instruments and
Securities. As of the Effective Date, and whether or not surrendered by the
holder thereof: (a) all Existing GCX Common Stock and all other Instruments and
Securities evidencing any Claims or Interests (except for the Common Stock of
the Debtors other than GCX) shall be deemed automatically cancelled and deemed
void and of no further force or effect, without any further action on the part
of any person, and any Claims or Interests under or evidenced by such Existing
GCX Common Stock or other Instruments or Securities (other than Common Stock of
the Debtors other than GCX) shall be deemed discharged. Until the Persons
holding, or having a beneficial interest in, such Instruments or Securities as
of the Record Date or their lawful successors and assigns surrender such
Instruments or Securities, or otherwise comply with Section 9.4.1 of the Plan,
such Persons shall have no rights (and such Instruments or Securities shall
evidence no rights) except to surrender such Instruments or Securities, or
otherwise comply with such Section, and to receive in exchange therefor the
distributions to which such Persons are entitled


                                      -68-
<PAGE>
pursuant to the provisions of Article 5 of the Plan. The obligations of the
Debtors under any agreements relating to such Instruments and Securities shall
be deemed rejected, cancelled and terminated as of the Petition Date. All
options to purchase any stock of GCX shall be deemed rejected, cancelled and
terminated as of the Petition Date.

                  9.3.3 Cancellation of Liens. Except as otherwise provided in
the Plan, any Lien securing any Secured Claim shall be deemed released and
discharged, and the Person holding such Secured Claim shall be authorized and
directed to release any collateral or other property of the Debtors (including,
without limitation, any cash collateral) held by such Person and to take such
actions as may be requested by the Reorganized Debtors to evidence the release
of such Lien, including, without limitation, the execution, delivery and filing
or recording of such releases as may be requested by Reorganized Debtors at the
sole expense of Reorganized Debtors.

         9.4 De Minimis Distributions and Fractional Shares. No Cash payment of
less than ten dollars ($10) shall be made by the Reorganized Debtors, the
Distribution Agent or the Class 6 Distribution Agent to any holder of Claims
unless a request therefor is made in writing to the Reorganized Debtors or the
Distribution Agent or, in the case of an Allowed Class 6 Claim, the Class 6
Distribution Agent. No fractional shares of New AMCE Common Stock shall be
distributed; any entity that otherwise would be entitled to receive a fractional
share distribution under this Plan shall instead receive an amount of shares
rounded down to the next whole number. In lieu of issuing any New AMCE Note in a
denomination of less than $1,000, AMCE may elect to pay, to the Person which
would otherwise have been entitled to receive such New AMCE Note, Cash in the
principal amount of such New AMCE Note that would otherwise have been issued.
Whenever payment of a fraction of a cent would otherwise be called for, the
actual payment shall reflect a rounding down of such fraction to the nearest
whole cent. Any cash, securities or other property that is not distributed as a
consequence of this section shall, after the last distribution on account of
Allowed Claims in the applicable Class, be treated as "Unclaimed Property" under
the Plan.

                                      -69-
<PAGE>
         9.5 Compliance with Tax Requirements. The Distribution Agent and Class
6 Distribution Agent shall comply with all withholding and reporting
requirements imposed by federal, state or local taxing authorities in connection
with making distributions pursuant to the Plan. In connection with each
distribution with respect to which the filing of an information return (such as
an Internal Revenue Service Form 1099 or 1042) or withholding is required, the
Distribution Agent or Class 6 Distribution Agent, as applicable, shall file such
information return with the Internal Revenue Service and provide any required
statements in connection therewith to the recipients of such distribution, or
effect any such withholding and deposit all moneys so withheld to the extent
required by law. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, the
Distribution Agent or Class 6 Distribution Agent, as applicable, by written
demand may require any Holder of an Allowed Administrative Claim, an Allowed
Claim, or other recipient of a distribution under this Plan to provide the
Distribution Agent or Class 6 Distribution Agent with such information as is
reasonably necessary for the Distribution Agent or Class 6 Distribution Agent to
comply with all applicable withholding and reporting requirements. Such
information, if demanded by the Distribution Agent or Class 6 Distribution
Agent, shall be provided to the Distribution Agent or Class 6 Distribution Agent
in advance of, and as a condition to, receiving any distribution under this
Plan. In addition, with respect to any Person from whom a tax identification
number, certified tax identification number or other tax information required by
law to avoid withholding has not been received, the Distribution Agent or Class
6 Distribution Agent, as applicable, may, at its sole option, withhold the
amount required and distribute the balance to such Person or decline to make
such distribution until the information is received.

         9.6 Delivery of Distributions. Except as provided in Section 9.7 with
respect to Unclaimed Property, distributions to holders of Allowed Claims and
Allowed Administrative Claims shall be distributed by mail as follows: (1) with
respect to each Holder of an Allowed Claim that has filed a proof of claim, at
the address for such holder as maintained by the official claims agent for the
Debtors; (2) with respect to each holder of an Allowed Claim that has not filed
a proof of claim, at the address reflected on the Schedules filed by the
Debtors, provided,

                                      -70-
<PAGE>
however, that if the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Distribution Agent or
Class 6 Distribution Agent, as applicable, have received a written notice of a
change of address for such holder, the address set forth in such notice shall be
used; or (3) with respect to each Holder of an Allowed Administrative Claim, at
such address as the holder may specify in writing.

         9.7 Undeliverable Distributions. If the distribution of Cash, New AMCE
Securities or New GCC Investments Preferred Stock to the Holder of any Allowed
Claim, Allowed Interest or Allowed Administrative Claim is returned to the
Reorganized Debtors or the Distribution Agent or Class 6 Distribution Agent as
undeliverable (any such distribution being hereinafter referred to as "Unclaimed
Property"), no further distribution shall be made to such Holder unless and
until the Reorganized Debtors, the Distribution Agent or the Class 6
Distribution Agent, as applicable, is notified in writing of such Holder's then
current address. Subject to the remainder of this Section and Sections 9.8,
Unclaimed Property shall remain in the possession of the Reorganized Debtors or
the Distribution Agent or Class 6 Distribution Agent pursuant to this Section
9.7, and shall be set aside and (in the case of Cash) held in a segregated
interest-bearing account (as to Cash Unclaimed Property)to be maintained by the
Distribution Agent or Class 6 Distribution Agent, as applicable, until such time
as the subject distribution becomes deliverable. Nothing contained in the Plan
shall require the Reorganized Debtors, Distribution Agent or Class 6
Distribution Agent to attempt to locate such Person.

         9.8 Disposition of Unclaimed Property. If the Person entitled thereto
notifies the Reorganized Debtors, Distribution Agent, or Class 6 Distribution
Agent, as applicable, of such Person's claim to the distribution of Unclaimed
Property within nine (9) months following the Effective Date, the Unclaimed
Property distributable to such Person, together with any interest or dividends
earned thereon, shall be paid or distributed to such Person on the next
Distribution Date. Any Holder of an Allowed Claim or Allowed Administrative
Claim that does not assert a claim in writing for Unclaimed Property held by the
Reorganized Debtors, the Distribution Agent or Class 6 Distribution Agent within
nine (9) months after the Effective Date shall no longer have any claim to or
interest in such Unclaimed Property, and shall be forever barred

                                      -71-
<PAGE>
from receiving any distributions under this Plan or otherwise from the
Reorganized Debtors, the Distribution Agent or the Class 6 Distribution Agent.
In such cases any property held for distribution on account of such Claims or
Administrative Claims other than New AMCE Stock held for distribution to Class 6
shall be retained by the Reorganized Debtors or AMCE as follows: pursuant to
Bankruptcy Code section 347(b), any undistributed Cash shall be the property of
the Reorganized Debtors, any undistributed New AMCE Notes or New AMCE Stock
shall be the property of AMCE (and may be cancelled by AMCE), free from any
restrictions thereon, and such undistributed Cash or securities shall not be
subject to the unclaimed property or escheat laws of any State or other
governmental unit. If such Unclaimed Property consists of any distribution for
any Persons holding Class 6 Claims, such Distribution shall become the property
of and be distributed to the other Persons holding Allowed Class 6 Claims on a
Pro Rata basis.

         9.9 Voting of Undelivered New AMCE Common Stock. In connection with any
election or other vote by the holders of AMCE Stock, any shares of New AMCE
Stock that have not been delivered pursuant to this Plan (including but not
limited to any shares held by the trustee of the Unsecured Stock Trust), shall
be deemed voted in the same proportion as those shares of AMCE Stock (whether or
not it is New AMCE Stock) that have been voted with respect to the particular
election or other vote.

         9.10 Setoff. The Distribution Agent and Class 6 Distribution Agent may,
but are not required to, set off against any Claim and the distribution to be
made pursuant to the Plan in respect of such Claim, any claims of any nature
which Debtors may have had against the holder of such Claim. Neither the failure
by the Debtors, the Distribution Agent or Class 6 Distribution Agent to effect
such a setoff nor the allowance of any Claim shall constitute a waiver or a
release of any claim which the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors may have against
the Holder of a Claim.

         9.11 Record Date. Interests represented by Existing GCX Common Stock
must be of record as of the Record Date to be eligible for the treatment of
Class 10 Interests under the Plan. As of the close of business on the Record
Date, the transfer ledgers for the Existing GCX

                                      -72-
<PAGE>
Common Stock as maintained by, or on behalf of, GCX shall be closed and there
shall be no further registrations or other changes in the holders of record of
such securities on such transfer ledgers. Reorganized GCX, and the transfer
agents or registrars, as the case may be, shall have no obligation to recognize

                                   ARTICLE 10

                       LITIGATION AND OBJECTIONS TO CLAIMS

         10.1 Preservation of Rights of Action and Defenses. Except to the
extent such Rights of Action and defenses are expressly and specifically
released or modified in connection with the Plan, (i) any and all Rights of
Action and defenses accruing to the Debtors or their Estates (including, without
limitation, Avoidance Rights of Action) shall remain assets of and vest in the
Reorganized Debtors, which shall be the representative of the Estate within the
meaning of 11 U.S.C. Section 1123(b)(3), whether or not litigation relating
thereto is pending on the Effective Date, and whether or not any such Rights of
Action or defenses have been Scheduled or otherwise listed or referred to in
this Plan, the Disclosure Statement, or any other document filed with the
Bankruptcy Court, and (ii) except to the limited extent provided in Section
10.2, neither the Debtors nor the Reorganized Debtors waive, relinquish, or
abandon (nor shall they be estopped or otherwise precluded from asserting) any
Right of Action or defense that constitutes property of the Debtors' estates:
(a) whether or not such Right of Action or defense has been listed or referred
to in the Schedules, this Plan, the Disclosure Statement, or any other document
filed with the Bankruptcy Court, (b) whether or not such Right of Action or
defense is currently known to the Debtors, and (c) whether or not a defendant in
any litigation relating to such Right of Action or defense filed a proof of
claim in the Chapter 11 Cases, filed a notice of appearance or any other
pleading or notice in the Chapter 11 Cases, voted for or against this Plan, or
received or retained any consideration under this Plan. Without in any manner
limiting the scope of the foregoing, notwithstanding any otherwise applicable
principle of law or equity, including, without limitation, any principles of
judicial estoppel, res judicata, collateral estoppel, issue preclusion, or any
similar doctrine, the failure to list, disclose, describe, identify, or refer to
a

                                      -73-
<PAGE>
Right of Action or defense, or potential Right of Action or defense, in the
Debtors' Schedules, this Plan, the Disclosure Statement, or any other document
filed with the Bankruptcy Court shall in no manner waive, eliminate, modify,
release, or alter the Reorganized Debtors' right to commence, prosecute, defend
against, settle, and realize upon any Rights of Action or defenses that any of
the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors have or may have as of the Confirmation Date.
The Reorganized Debtors may commence, prosecute, defend against, recover on
account of, and settle all Rights of Action and defenses in their sole
discretion in accordance with what is in the best interests, and for the
benefit, of the Reorganized Debtors.

         10.2 Objections to Claims and Other Rights of Action. Notwithstanding
the foregoing (and except for objections that may be filed by Harcourt with
respect to the Identified Leases at any time prior to the Objection Deadline),
from and after the Effective Date, the Post-Confirmation Committee shall act as
the exclusive estate representative within the meaning of 11 U.S.C. Section
1123(b)(3) for the sole and limited purpose of objecting to the allowance of any
Class 6 Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the written election of AMCE
made before the Objection Deadline, the Class 6 Claim of John Berylson in an
amount of $2,327,225.71 shall be Allowed in full as a Class 6 Claim, and no
objection shall be filed to such Claim to the extent of such amount. The claim
filed by Michael A. Greeley in the approximate amount of $2.1 million (the
"Greeley Claim") shall be settled on the following terms and conditions; (i) the
Greeley Claim shall be allowed as a Class 6 unsecured claim in the amount of
$900,000 and disallowed for any amount in excess of $900,000 (and any other
claims filed by Greeley shall be disallowed); (ii) the Debtors and Greeley shall
release one another from any and all other claims, including, without
limitation, any claims of the Estates against Greeley under section 547 of the
Bankruptcy Code (which release shall be binding upon the Reorganized Debtors and
any successors); and (iii) Greeley will not object to the treatment of the
Greeley Claim as a Class 6 claim or to confirmation of the Plan. The
Post-Confirmation Committee shall also have the non-exclusive power and
authority to object to the Allowance of any Deduction Claims. The
Post-Confirmation Committee shall be vested with and have exclusive standing to
assert all Rights of Action that may be asserted as a defense or setoff to the
allowance of any Class 6 Claim or Deduction Claim, including without limitation
Avoidance Rights of Action and any defenses that may be asserted under 11 U.S.C.
Section 502(d), for the limited purpose of seeking disallowance of any Class 6
Claim or Deduction Claim, but may not seek any affirmative recovery against any
Person with respect to any Rights of Action without the consent of Reorganized
GCX (and any such affirmative recovery shall be property of the Reorganized
Debtors); and, subject to the foregoing limitations, the Post-Confirmation
Committee may assert, prosecute, settle, release, sell, assign, otherwise
transfer or compromise objections to Class 6 Claims in its sole discretion and
may settle or


                                      -74-
<PAGE>
otherwise comprise any Deduction Claims with the consent of the Reorganized
Debtors, not to be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Reorganized Debtors shall have the option to release any and all Claims arising
out of notes executed in their favor by John Berylson and Demos Kouvaris. Unless
another date is established by order of the Bankruptcy Court or the Plan, any
objection to a Claim shall be filed with the Bankruptcy Court and served on the
Person holding such Claim within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the
later of the Effective Date or the filing of a proof of claim for such Claim
(the "Objection Deadline"). The Post-Confirmation Committee shall have the right
to petition the Bankruptcy Court, without notice or a hearing, other than notice
and an opportunity to be heard to Reorganized GCX and AMCE, for an extension of
such date if a complete review of all Claims cannot be completed by such date.

         10.3 Treatment of Disputed Claims.

                  10.3.1 No Distribution Pending Allowance. If any portion of a
Claim is a Disputed Claim, no payment or distribution provided for under the
Plan shall be made on account of the portion of such Claim that is a Disputed
Claim unless and until such Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim.

                  10.3.2 Distribution After Allowance. On the next Distribution
Date following the date on which a Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim, the
Distribution Agent or Class 6 Distribution Agent, as applicable, shall
distribute to the Person holding such Claim any Cash or New AMCE Securities that
would have been distributable to such Person if such Claim had been an Allowed
Claim on the Effective Date.

                  10.3.3 Reserves for Disputed Claims. In the event that
Disputed Claims are pending, the Distribution Agent or Class 6 Distribution
Agent, as applicable, shall establish reasonable reserves for such Disputed
Claims and the aggregate property to be distributed to holders of Allowed Claims
on any Distribution Date shall be adjusted to reflect such reserves. The
Distribution Agent or Class 6 Distribution Agent may move the Bankruptcy Court
for approval of its determination to reserve certain amounts. AMCE shall have no
liability or obligation with respect to the adequacy of such reserves and,
except to the extent that

                                      -75-
<PAGE>
Reorganized GCX serves as Distribution Agent, Reorganized GCX shall have no
liability or obligation with respect to the adequacy of any such reserves.

                                   ARTICLE 11

                          EFFECTS OF PLAN CONFIRMATION

         11.1 Discharge of Debtors. The rights afforded in the Plan and the
treatment of all Claims and Interests therein shall be in exchange for, and in
complete satisfaction, discharge, and release of, any and all Claims and
Interests of any nature whatsoever, including any interest, fees, or penalties
accrued on or relating to such Claims whether before or after the Petition Date,
against the Debtors and the Debtors in Possession, or any of their assets or
properties. Except as otherwise provided herein, (i) on the Effective Date, the
Debtors and Reorganized Debtors shall be deemed discharged and released to the
fullest extent permitted by section 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code from all Claims
and Interests, including, but not limited to, demands, liabilities, Claims, and
Interests that arose before the Confirmation Date and all debts of the kind
specified in sections 502(g), 502(h), or 502(i) of the Bankruptcy Code, whether
or not: (a) a proof of claim or proof of interest based on such Claim, debt or
Interest is filed or deemed filed pursuant to section 501 of the Bankruptcy
Code, (b) a Claim or Interest based on such debt or interest is allowed pursuant
to section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (c) the holder of a Claim or Interest
based on such debt or interest has accepted the Plan or has made an appearance
in the Cases; and (ii) all persons and entities (including, but not limited to,
States and other governmental units) shall be deemed precluded from asserting
against the Reorganized Debtors, their successors, or their assets or properties
any other or further Claims or Interests based upon any act or omission,
transaction, or other activity of any kind or nature that occurred prior to the
Confirmation Date. The Confirmation Order shall act as a discharge of any and
all Claims against and all debts and liabilities of the Debtors, as provided in
sections 524 and 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code, and such discharge shall void any
judgment against the Debtors at any time obtained to the extent that it relates
to a Claim discharged.

                                      -76-

         11.2 Injunction. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan,
the documents executed pursuant to the Plan, or the Confirmation Order, on and
after the Effective Date, all persons and entities who have held, currently
hold, or may hold a debt, Claim, or Interest discharged pursuant to the terms of
the Plan (including but not limited to States and other governmental units, and
any State official, employee, or other entity acting in an individual or
official capacity on behalf of any State or other governmental units) shall be
deemed permanently enjoined from taking any of the following actions on account
of any such discharged debt, Claim, or Interest: (1) commencing or continuing in
any manner any action or other proceeding against the Debtors, the Reorganized
Debtors, their successors, or their property; (2) enforcing, attaching,
executing, collecting, or recovering in any manner any judgment, award, decree,
or order against the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, their successors, or
their property; (3) creating, perfecting, or enforcing any lien or encumbrance
against the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, their successors, or their
property; (4) asserting any set off, right of subrogation, or recoupment of any
kind against any obligation due the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, their
successors, or their property; and (5) commencing or continuing any action, in
any manner, in any place that does not comply with or is inconsistent with the
provisions of this Plan. Any person or entity injured by any willful violation
of such injunction shall recover actual damages, including costs and attorneys'
fees, and, in appropriate circumstances, may recover punitive damages from the
willful violator.

                                      -77-
<PAGE>

known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, contingent or fixed, liquidated or
unliquidated, existing or hereafter arising, in law, equity or otherwise, that
any Debtor, Debtor in Possession or any of their respective direct or indirect
subsidiaries is entitled to assert in its own right or on behalf of the Holder
of any Claim or Interest or other Person, based in whole or in part upon any act

                  12.1.2 From and after the Effective Date, the Holders of

Action, known or unknown, that any Debtor or any of their respective
subsidiaries is entitled to assert in its own right or on behalf of the Holder
of any Claim or Interest or other Person, based in whole or in part upon any act
or omission, transaction, agreement, event or other occurrence taking place on
or prior to the Petition Date, except to the extent such Avoidance Rights of
Action may be asserted as a defense or offset to the allowance of any Class 6
Claim or as grounds for disallowance or subordination under 11 U.S.C. Section
502(d) or otherwise of any Class 6 Claim.

         12.2 Certain Mutual Releases. On and after the Effective Date, each of:
(i) the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, their subsidiaries and their
Affiliates; on the one hand; and (ii) each of the officers, directors and
employees of the foregoing who were such as of December 6, 2001, on the other

other occurrence taking place on or before the

                                      -78-

8.8 or 8.10 of the Plan; or (ii) arising after the Petition Date in the ordinary

enjoining the commencement or prosecution by any entity, whether directly,
derivatively, or otherwise, of any Claim, demand, liability, obligation, debt,
right, cause of action, interest, remedy released or to be released pursuant to
the Plan, against the foregoing Persons and entities. Any officer, director or
employee who objects to granting the release provided for in this Section 12.2
may, by giving written notice of such objection prior to the Confirmation Date,
elect to be excluded from the operation of this Section 12.2, in which event
such officer or director shall neither be released, nor be deemed to have
granted a release, under this Section 12.2.

         12.3 Injunctions and Stays. Unless otherwise provided in the Plan or
the Confirmation Order, all injunctions and stays provided for in the Cases
pursuant to Sections 105 and 362 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise in effect

the Reorganized Debtors, or (c) any of the Persons released under this Plan (or
their respective officers, directors, employees and other agents, advisors,
attorneys and accountants, successors or assigns) liable for any claim,
obligation, right, interest, debt or liability that has been discharged or
released pursuant to Sections 11.1, 12.1 or 12.3 of the Plan. Each Person
holding a claim or interest jointly against a Debtor and a non-Debtor subsidiary
of GCX, by virtue of the acceptance by such Person of any Distribution or
consideration given under the Plan, is permanently enjoined from, and restrained
against, commencing or continuing in any court any suit, action or other
proceeding, or

                                      -79-

liability.

         12.4 No Liability for Solicitation or Participation. As specified in
section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, entities that solicit acceptances or
rejections of the Plan and/or that participate in the offer, issuance, sale, or
purchase of securities offered or sold under the Plan, in good faith and in
compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, shall not be

of the Debtors, Reorganized Debtors, the Committee, AMCE, the GECC Group or
Harcourt nor any of their respective members, officers, directors, employees and

liability to any Holder of any Claim or Interest or any other Person for any act
or omission in connection with or arising out of the negotiation, preparation
and pursuit of confirmation of the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, the

property to be distributed under the Plan except for (a) liability based on the
timely performance of obligations under the Plan; and (b) liability based on
willful misconduct or gross negligence as finally determined by the Bankruptcy
Court. Each of the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Committee, AMCE, the
GECC Group, Harcourt (and their respective officers, directors, employees and
other agents, advisors, attorneys and accountants) shall be entitled to rely, in
every respect, upon the advice of counsel with respect to their duties and
responsibilities under the Plan.

         12.6 Waiver of Subordination Rights. On the Effective Date, each Person
holding a Claim or Interest shall be deemed (a) by virtue of the acceptance of

or (c) by the acceptance by such Person of any distribution made or
consideration given under the Plan, to have waived and relinquished any

                                      -80-

the Effective Date, each Holder of a Claim or Interest who has accepted the Plan
and who has not elected on the Ballot to opt out of this provision, in exchange
for, among other things, such Holder's distribution under the Plan, shall be
deemed to have released unconditionally each of the Debtors, and (to the extent
that the following persons or entities are such as of the date of this Plan),
their subsidiaries, their Affiliates, and the agents, officers, directors,
partners, members, professionals and agents of the foregoing (and the officers,
directors, partners, members, professionals and agents of each thereof), from
any and all Claims, obligations, rights, suits, damages, Causes of Action,
remedies and liabilities whatsoever, whether liquidated or unliquidated, fixed
or contingent, matured or unmatured, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen,
existing or hereafter arising, in law, equity or otherwise, that such Person or
Entity would have been legally entitled to assert (whether individually or
collectively), based in whole or in part upon any act or omission, transaction,
agreement, event or other occurrence taking place on or before the Effective
Date in any way relating or pertaining to the Debtors, the Cases, the Plan, the
Disclosure Statement, or any related agreements, instruments or other documents,
except: (i) for Claims arising under or preserved by the Plan (including any
Claims arising after the Effective Date under assumed leases and executory
contracts and including Allowed Administrative Claims) and (ii) for Claims
arising after the Petition Date in the ordinary course of business. In
furtherance of the foregoing, the Confirmation Order will constitute an

whether directly, derivatively or otherwise, of any Claim, demand, liability,
obligation, debt, right, Cause of Action, interest or remedy released or to be
released pursuant to the Plan against the foregoing Persons and Entities.
Notwithstanding the foregoing,


                                      -81-

this Section 12.7 shall not apply to any Holder of an Interest in the event the

         12.8 Enforceability of Releases. Notwithstanding anything contained
herein to the contrary, the foregoing release provisions of this Section 12 with
respect to the release of non-Debtor third parties shall be enforced only to the
extent permitted by applicable bankruptcy and non-bankruptcy law.

         14.1 Retention of Jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the entry of the

                       MODIFICATION OR WITHDRAWAL OF PLAN

         15.1 Modification of Plan. At any time prior to confirmation of the
Plan, with the consent of AMCE (but not otherwise), the Proponents may
supplement, amend or modify the Plan. After confirmation of the Plan, with the
consent of AMCE (but not otherwise), the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors may
apply to the Bankruptcy Court, pursuant to Section 1127 of the Bankruptcy Code,
to modify the Plan. After confirmation of the Plan, the Debtors or Reorganized
Debtors with the consent of AMCE (but not otherwise) may apply to remedy defects
or omissions in the Plan or to reconcile inconsistencies in the Plan, but any
modification that adversely affects the treatment of Class 6 shall require the
consent of the Post-Confirmation Committee. The Plan may not be altered, amended
or modified without the written consent of AMCE and, prior to the Effective
Date, the Debtors or, after the Effective Date, Reorganized Debtors.

         15.2 Withdrawal of Plan. The Proponents reserve the right, with the
consent of AMCE (but not otherwise), to revoke and withdraw the Plan at any time
before the Confirmation Date or, if the conditions set forth in Section 13.2
hereof cannot be satisfied for any reason after the Confirmation Date, at any
time up to the Effective Date.

         15.3 Termination Events. If the Proponents, with the consent of AMCE
(but not otherwise), revoke or withdraw the Plan prior to the Confirmation Date,
if confirmation is denied by a Final Order, or if the Effective Date does not
occur by June 1, 2002 (or such later date as

                                      -86-
<PAGE>
may be agreed to by the Creditor Parties, AMCE and GCX), then the Plan shall be
deemed null and void. In such event, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to
constitute a waiver or release of any claims by or against the Debtors or any
other entity or to prejudice in any manner the rights of the Debtors or any
entity in any further proceedings involving the Debtors.

         15.4 Nonconsensual Confirmation. In the event that any impaired Class
of Claims or Interests shall fail to accept the Plan in accordance with section
1129(a)(8) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Proponents (i) request that the
Bankruptcy Court confirm the Plan in accordance with section 1129(b) of the
Bankruptcy Code, and (ii) in accordance with Section 15.1, and with the consent
of AMCE (but not otherwise), may modify the Plan in accordance with section
1127(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

                                   ARTICLE 16

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         16.1 Payment of Statutory Fees. All quarterly fees due and payable to
the Office of the United States Trustee pursuant to section 1930(a)(6) of title
28 of the United States Code shall be paid in full on or before the Effective
Date, or, to the extent such quarterly fees are disputed, an adequate reserve
shall have been established and set aside for payment in full thereof, as
required by section 1129(a)(12) of the Bankruptcy Code. Each Reorganized Debtor
shall remain responsible for timely payment of its respective quarterly fees due
and payable after the Effective Date and until such Reorganized Debtor's Case is
closed, to the extent required by section 1930(a)(6) of title 28 of the United
States Code; provided, however, that all such quarterly fees shall be paid by
the Class 6 Distribution Agent or (if the Committee elects to establish the
Unsecured Stock Trust) the Unsecured Stock Trustee as a Class 6 Distribution
Expense. After the Effective Date and until the Cases are closed, the
Reorganized Debtors shall file with the Office of the United States Trustee any
required financial reports.

         16.2 Payment Dates. Whenever any payment or distribution to be made
under the Plan shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment or
distribution shall instead be made, without interest, on the immediately
following Business Day.

                                      -87-

appropriate to effectuate the transactions contemplated under this Plan.

All notices and requests to any Person holding of record any Claim or Interest
shall be sent to them at their last known address or to the last known address
of their attorney of record. Any such Person may designate in writing any other
address for purposes of this Section 16.3.2, which designation will be effective
on receipt.

         16.6 Governing Law. Unless a rule of law or procedure is supplied by
federal law (including the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rules), the laws of
the State of Delaware (without reference to its conflict of law rules) shall
govern the construction and implementation of the Plan and any agreements,
documents, and instruments executed in connection with the Plan, unless
otherwise specifically provided in such agreements, documents, or instruments.

         16.7 Binding Effect. The Plan and all rights, duties and obligations
thereunder shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Debtors, the
Reorganized Debtors, holders of Claims, holders of Interests, and their
respective successors or assigns.

         16.8 Successors and Assigns. The rights, benefits, and obligations of
any entity named or referred to in the Plan shall be binding on, and shall inure
to the benefit of, the heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns
of such entity.

         16.9 Severability of Plan Provisions. If, prior to the Confirmation
Date, any term or provision of the Plan is held by the Bankruptcy Court to be
illegal, impermissible, invalid, void or unenforceable, or otherwise to
constitute grounds for denying confirmation of the Plan, the Bankruptcy Court
shall, with the consent of the Proponents and AMCE (as to all terms and
provisions other than those contained in Sections 12.2 or 12.7 of the Plan) and
with the consent of AMCE alone (in the case of any terms or provisions of
Sections 12.2 or 12.7 of the Plan), have the power to interpret, modify or
delete such term or provision (or portions thereof) to make it valid or
enforceable to the maximum extent practicable, consistent with the original
purpose of the term or provision held to be invalid, void or unenforceable, and
such term or provision shall then be operative as interpreted, modified or
deleted. Notwithstanding any such interpretation,

                                      -89-
<PAGE>
modification or deletion, the remainder of the terms and provisions of the Plan
shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated by such interpretation,
modification or deletion; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein, if, prior to the Confirmation Date, any term or provision
of the Plan is held by the Bankruptcy Court to be illegal, impermissible,
invalid, void, unenforceable or otherwise to constitute grounds for denying
confirmation of the Plan: (i) any such term or provision in Sections 12.2 or
12.7 of the Plan shall be severable at the sole election of AMCE; and (ii)
except for any term or provision in Sections 12.2 or 12.7 of the Plan, the terms
and provisions of the Plan shall not be severable unless such severance is
agreed to by the Proponents and consented to by AMCE.

         16.10 No Waiver. The failure of the Debtors or any other Person to
object to any Claim for purposes of voting shall not be deemed a waiver of the
Post-Confirmation Committee's or Reorganized Debtors' right to object to or
examine such Claim, in whole or in part.

         16.11 Committee.

                  16.11.1 From the Confirmation Date and up to and including the
Effective Date, the members of the Committee appointed pursuant to section 1102
of the Bankruptcy Code, and their duly appointed successors, will continue to
serve. On or prior to the Effective Date, the Committee shall appoint three (3)
of its members to serve as a Post-Confirmation Committee, which shall continue
in existence until the later of: (a) the completion of all distributions to
Persons holding Allowed Class 6 Claims; or (b) entry of a Final Order in respect
to all objections to Claims asserted by the Post-Confirmation Committee. If for
any reason a member of the Post-Confirmation Committee ceases to be a member,
the remaining Post-Confirmation Committee members may select a successor to that
member, provided the successor member holds an Allowed Class 6 Claim. Those
Committee members not continuing to serve on the Post-Confirmation Committee and
any professionals not continuing to be employed by the Post-Confirmation
Committee shall be released and discharged from their respective fiduciary
obligations; provided, however, that following the Effective Date, the

                                      -90-
<PAGE>
responsibilities of such members and professionals shall be limited to the
preparation of their respective fee applications.

                  16.11.2 The Post-Confirmation Committee shall have all of the
rights and duties of an official committee appointed pursuant to Bankruptcy Code
Section 1102, and may without order of the Bankruptcy Court employ and pay
professionals as provided in the Plan, including the same professionals employed
by the Committee, to assist it in the performance of its duties.

         16.12 Payment of Postpetition Interest and Attorneys' Fees. Unless
otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, or allowed by order of the Bankruptcy
Court, or required to be paid pursuant to the DIP Facility Order, the Debtors or
Reorganized Debtors shall not be required to pay to any holder of a claim any
interest, penalty or late charge, accruing on or after the Filing Date or any
attorneys' fees with respect to such claim (except as may be specified in the
Plan Documents).

         16.13 Services by and Fees for Professionals and Certain Parties.

                  16.13.1 Fees and expenses for the professionals retained by
the Debtors or the Committee for services rendered and costs incurred after the
Petition Date and prior to the Effective Date will be fixed by the Bankruptcy
Court after notice and a hearing and such fees and expenses will be paid by
Reorganized GCX or Reorganized GCT (less deductions for any and all amounts
thereof already paid to such Persons) within five (5) Business Days after a
Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court approving such fees and expenses.

                  16.13.2 The Reorganized Debtors may, in the ordinary course
and without need for notice or Bankruptcy Court order, employ professionals,
including any professionals employed during this case, to assist in the
performance of their duties hereunder. Any professionals so employed shall be
entitled to receive reasonable compensation and reimbursement of expenses, to be
determined and paid in the discretion of the Reorganized Debtors without need
for Bankruptcy Court approval.

                  16.13.3 The Post-Confirmation Committee, the Class 6
Distribution Agent and, if applicable, the Unsecured Stock Trust, may, in the
ordinary course and without need for notice

                                      -91-
<PAGE>
or Bankruptcy Court order, employ professionals, including any professionals
employed by the Committee during this case, to assist in the performance of
their duties hereunder. The Post-Confirmation Committee, the Class 6
Distribution Agent, the Unsecured Stock Trustee (if any) and any professionals
employed by any or all of them shall be entitled to receive compensation and
reimbursement of expenses as provided for in the Plan without need for
Bankruptcy Court approval.

         16.14 Exemption from Securities Laws. All of the New AMCE Stock, New
AMCE Notes and New Investments LLC Interests (other than those issued in the
Equity Financing) distributed pursuant to this Plan are and shall be entitled to
the benefits and exemptions provided by section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code.

         16.15 Implementation of Bankruptcy Code Section 1146(c). Pursuant to
Section 1146(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, any transfers or other transactions that
occur pursuant to or in connection with this Plan or the Confirmation Order
shall not be subject to, and may not be taxed under any federal, State, or local
law imposing a stamp tax, real estate transfer tax, document recording tax,
conveyance fee, intangibles or similar tax, mortgage tax, mortgage recording tax
or similar tax or governmental assessment, including but not limited to: (i) the
issuance, transfer, or exchange of any security (including but not limited to
the New AMCE Securities and the New GCC Investment Preferred Stock); (ii) the
creation, modification, filing, or recording of any mortgage, deed of trust,
deed to secure debt, collateral pledge, collateral assignment, UCC financing

                          financial statements.
