the Company supports its other nominees. 
 (g) At the request of the Company, the Investor shall cause each Investor Nominee to resign as a
member of the Board and all committees thereof on the earlier of the date that (x) the Investor’s aggregate beneficial ownership of Company Shares decreases to less than 7,900,361 (the “Minimum Ownership Level”), subject
to adjustment for any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock split or similar transaction after the date hereof (or such later date as specified by the Company), or (y) a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines that the Investor
has not cured a material breach of this Agreement after at least fifteen (15) calendar days following the date that the Board delivers a written notice to the Investor that the Investor has materially breached this Agreement, describing such
breach in reasonable detail (a “Material Breach”). Prior to the designation of any Investor Nominee to the Board, such Investor Nominee shall deliver to the Company an irrevocable resignation letter pursuant to which the resignation
of such Investor Nominee from the Board and all applicable committees thereof may be accepted by the Board if at any time the Investor fails to maintain the Minimum Ownership Level or a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines a Material
Breach has occurred. The Investor shall promptly (and in any event within five (5) business days) inform the Company in writing if at any time the Investor has failed to maintain the Minimum Ownership Level. 

(h) During the Standstill Period, (i) except as contemplated by the amendment to the Amended and Restated Bylaws described in paragraph
1(c)(ii) hereof, the Board shall consist of not more than nine (9) directors, (ii) the Board shall not take any action to amend the Charter or the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company if such amendment would be inconsistent with any
provision of this Agreement, and (iii) the Board shall not take any action to amend the Company’s Statement of Policy with Respect to Related Party Transactions. 

(i) The Investor hereby withdraws the notice of stockholder nominations dated January 25, 2018, as amended or supplemented from time to

 2. Vacancies. If at any time during the Standstill Period (as defined below) any Investor
Nominee (x) resigns, is removed or is otherwise unable or unwilling to serve as a director, or (y) is not elected as a director at any Annual Meeting at which such Investor Nominee is a nominee (or required to be a nominee) for election in
accordance with paragraphs 1(b)(i) or 1(b)(v) hereof, and, as a result, is not a director of the Company, then in each such case, the Investor shall have the right to designate another person (each, an “SG Replacement Designee”) to
serve as a director in place of such Investor Nominee; provided, that any such person is reasonably acceptable to the Nominating and Governance Committee in its good faith judgment after exercising its fiduciary duties and any such person
otherwise satisfies the Director Criteria. If the Nominating and Governance Committee does not accept an SG Replacement Director recommended by the Investor, the Investor will have the right to recommend additional substitute person(s) for
consideration by the Nominating and Governance Committees. Reasonably promptly after any SG Replacement Designee has been designated by the Investor and approved by the Nominating and Governance Committee in accordance herewith (taking into account
the Company’s director review process, which the Company shall commence promptly upon such designation by the Investor), the Board will appoint such SG Replacement Designee as a director of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, the Board
shall vote on the appointment of such SG Replacement Designee no later than five (5) business days after the designation of such SG Replacement Designee and neither the Nominating and Governance Committee nor the Board shall reject the SG
Replacement Designee unless such SG Replacement Designee fails to satisfy the criteria set forth in the proviso in the first sentence of this paragraph 2. Upon becoming a director nominee or member of the Board, as applicable, the SG Replacement
Designee shall be treated as, and shall be subject to the terms and conditions hereunder applicable to, an Investor Nominee. It is understood that no person may be an Investor Nominee unless he or she (x) delivers to the Company an irrevocable
resignation letter executed in accordance with paragraph 1(g) hereof and (y) enters into a confidentiality agreement having substantially the same terms as any confidentiality agreement entered into by the previous Investor Nominee. All
Investor Nominees will be required to execute standard confidentiality agreements to the extent that other directors of the Company are required to do so (provided that the Company agrees that any Investor Nominee may provide confidential
information of the Company which he or she learns in his or her capacity as a director of the Company to the Investor and its Affiliates, so long as the Investor and such Affiliates and the Company have entered into a confidentiality agreement with
customary terms that are substantially similar to and no more restrictive than the confidentiality obligations of Regal and Cinemark towards the Company in effect as of the date hereof). 

3. Rights and Obligations of Elected Investor Nominee. The Parties agree that each Investor Nominee, upon election to the Board, shall
(a) be governed by the Corporate Governance Guidelines, other policies of the Company applicable to other independent directors and the related obligations regarding confidentiality, conflicts of interest, related-party transactions, fiduciary
duties, codes of conduct, trading and disclosure policies, and director resignation policies and (b) have the same rights and benefits, including with respect to insurance, indemnification, and reimbursable expenses, as are applicable to all
independent directors of the Company, with the exception that any Investor Nominee who is an employee of the Investor shall not be compensated by the Company for his or her service on the Board (but, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be have the
same rights and benefits with respect to insurance, indemnification, and reimbursable expenses). During the Standstill Period, unless not in 

  
 5 








 
compliance with applicable SEC rules and regulations or stock exchange regulations, the Company agrees that (i) the Investor Designees will be eligible for election by the Board to each of
the Board’s committee, and (ii) the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall take all action necessary to appoint one Investor Designee to any committee of the Board on which Investor has requested Investor Designee
participation, other than the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Governance Committee. During the Standstill Period, the Company shall send copies of all written materials distributed to the members of each committee
to every director then in office. Neither the Board nor any committee of the Board shall take any action to exclude any Investor Nominee from any meeting or deliberations of the Board or any Board committee of which such Investor Nominee is a
member, other than in the case of any conflict of interest (in which case the Company shall notify the Investor Nominee(s), in advance in writing of the basis for excluding the Investor Nominee(s) from such meeting or deliberations, it being
understood that nothing in this Agreement shall impose restrictions in addition to those contained in applicable law or stock exchange regulations or set forth in the Company’s Statement of Policy with Respect to Related Party Transactions as
in effect on the date hereof (a true and complete copy of which has been provided to the Investor) regarding the participation of any Investor Nominee in any vote of directors or members of a committee of which such Investor Nominee is a member).

 4. Investor Support of Board Actions. During the Standstill Period, the Investor and its Affiliates shall cause all Company Shares
or any rights, warrants, options or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Company Shares for which they have the right to vote to be present for quorum purposes and to be voted at any meeting of stockholders or at any
adjournments or postponements thereof, and to consent in connection with any action by consent in lieu of a meeting, (i) in favor of each director nominated and recommended by the Board for election at any such meeting (provided the Company and
the Board have complied with the obligations under paragraphs 1(b)(i) and 1(b)(v)), (ii) in favor of the Charter Amendment Package, (iii) in accordance with the recommendations of the Board on all routine proposals of the types specified in
Rule 14a-6(a)(2) promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act, (iv) in accordance with the recommendations of the Board on all proposals of the type specified in Rule
14a-6(a)(5); provided that Institutional Shareholder Service recommends that stockholders vote in favor of such proposals, and (iv) against any shareholder nominations for director which are not approved
and recommended by the Board for election at any such meeting and against any proposals or resolutions to remove any member of the Board (provided the Company and the Board have complied with the obligations under paragraphs 1(b)(i) and 1(b)(v)).
The Investor and its Affiliates hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Company, with full power of substitution, for and in the name, place and stead of the Investor or its Affiliates as his, her, or its true and lawful proxy and attorney-in-fact to vote at the 2018 Annual Meeting, all of the Company Shares owned by the Investor its Affiliates, in accordance with the terms of this paragraph 4, and
grants the Company the right to represent and otherwise act as the Investor or its Affiliates could act, in the same manner and with the same effect as if the Investor or its Affiliates was personally present at the 2018 Annual Meeting, or any

Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the other Party. Any purported transfer requiring consent without such consent shall be void. No amendment, modification, supplement or waiver
of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the Parties hereto. Any waiver by any Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other
breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Agreement. The failure of a Party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Agreement on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver or deprive that Party
of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement. 
 13. Validity. If any
provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. Any provision of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable only in
part or degree shall remain in full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable. The Parties further agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will

such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (iii) to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable legal requirements, any claim that (A) the suit, action or proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper or (C) this Agreement, or
the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each of the Parties irrevocably agrees to expedited adjudication, by the courts specified in this paragraph 14, of any dispute regarding the interpretation or enforcement of this

OF

adopted in accordance with the provisions of Sections 242 and 245 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”). 

  

	C.	The text of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, as heretofore amended and restated, is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

 The

 ARTICLE III 

PURPOSES 
 The purpose of the
Corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which a corporation may be organized under the DGCL. 
 ARTICLE IV 

CAPITAL, VOTING, CONVERSION 

Section 4.1    Authorized Shares. The total number of shares of capital stock that the Corporation shall have
authority to issue is 185,000,000, which shall be divided into the following classes: 
 (a)    175,000,000 shares shall
be of a class designated Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”); and 
 (b)    10,000,000
shares shall be of a class designated Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Preferred Stock”). 
 The number of authorized shares of Common
Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares then outstanding and the number then reserved for issuance upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of Rights (including, without limitation, Membership Units)) by an amendment
to this Certificate approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Common Stock (and any other class or series of stock entitled to vote with the Common Stock). 

  
 A-1 








 Section 4.2    Voting Power of Common Stock. Each holder of
Common Stock shall be entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Corporation on which holders of Common Stock are entitled to vote. Except as may otherwise be required by the
DGCL, by the provisions of this Certificate or any Preferred Stock Designation, the holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock, and the holders of outstanding shares of each series of Preferred Stock entitled to vote thereon, if any, shall vote
as one class with respect to all matters to be voted on by the stockholders of the Corporation, and no separate vote or consent of the holders of shares of Common Stock or the holders of shares of any series of Preferred Stock, if any, shall be
required for the approval of any such matter. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing and provided that the subject matter being voted thereon does not adversely
affect the rights, powers or preferences of the Common Stock, holders of Common Stock shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this Certificate (including any amendment to any Preferred Stock Designation) that relates solely to the terms of
one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote exclusively thereon pursuant to this Certificate
(including any Preferred Stock Designation). 
 Section 4.3    Exchange Rights. 

(a)    The LLC shall be entitled to exchange Membership Units, at any time and from time to time, on a one-for-one basis, into the same number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock as may be required for the LLC to meet
an obligation under the LLC Agreement to redeem Membership Units, subject to the Corporation’s right to elect a Cash Settlement. The LLC’s right to exchange Membership Units, and the Corporation’s obligations under this
Section 4.3, shall be subject to the delivery of written notice (the “Redemption Notice”) by a Member to the LLC and the Corporation of such Member’s intent to cause the LLC to redeem all or a portion of the Membership Units held
by such Member. The date specified in the Redemption Notice as the date that the LLC shall redeem the Membership Units shall also be the date (the “Exchange Date”) on which the exchange of Membership Units for shares of Common Stock shall
occur. The number of Membership Units that the LLC shall issue and deliver to the Corporation for exchange on the Exchange Date pursuant to this Section 4.3 (the “Exchanged Units”) shall be equal to the number of Membership Units
specified in the Redemption Notice to be redeemed by the LLC. 
 (b)    Upon receipt of the Redemption Notice, the
Corporation, in its sole discretion, may elect to deliver shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Exchanged Units (the “Share Settlement”), or may, in lieu of exchanging Common Stock for Exchanged Units, make a cash payment to the
LLC in an amount equal to the number of Exchanged Units multiplied by the applicable Exchange Price (the “Cash Settlement”). Within three (3) Business Days of receipt of the Redemption Notice, the Corporation shall deliver written
notice to the LLC (with a copy to the holder of Membership Units exercising its right to cause the LLC to redeem all or a portion of its Membership Units) of its intended settlement method (the “Settlement Notice”). If a Settlement Notice
is not delivered within such three (3) day period, the Corporation shall be deemed to have elected a Share Settlement. If the Corporation elects to satisfy its exchange obligation through a Cash Settlement, then the holder of Membership Units
exercising its right to cause the LLC to redeem all or a portion of its Membership Units may retract its Redemption Notice by delivering written notice of retraction (the “Retraction Notice”) to the LLC (with a copy to the Corporation)
within two (2) Business Days of delivery of the Settlement Notice. If the Corporation elects to satisfy its exchange obligation through a Cash Settlement, the Corporation will sell to a third party a number of shares of Common Stock equal to
the number of Exchanged Units and shall assure that the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock will equal on a one-for-one basis the number of Membership Units
owned by the Corporation. Any Redemption Notice, Settlement Notice or Retraction Notice delivered by or to the Corporation may be delivered by hand or sent by facsimile, electronic mail or nationally recognized overnight delivery service and shall
be deemed given when received if delivered on a Business Day during normal business hours of the recipient or, if not so delivered, on the next Business Day following receipt or delivery. 

(c)    Unless a timely Retraction Notice has been delivered to the Corporation, on the Exchange Date the following shall
occur: 

  
 A-2 








 (1)    the LLC shall (A) issue and deliver to the Corporation a
certificate representing the number of Exchanged Units to be exchanged, and (B) deliver to the Corporation all transfer tax stamps or funds therefor, if required pursuant to Section 4.3(g); 

(2)    the Corporation shall deliver to the LLC (or such other party that the LLC may designate in accordance with
Section 4.3(d)) one of the following: 
 (i)    in a Share Settlement for the Exchanged Units, the Corporation
shall issue to the LLC or in such other name or names the LLC may direct a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Exchanged Units; or 

(ii)    in a Cash Settlement for the Exchanged Units, the Corporation shall pay to the LLC or such other Person as the LLC
may direct, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount equal to the number of Exchanged Units multiplied by the then applicable Exchange Price. 

(d)    Unless a timely Retraction Notice has been delivered to the Corporation, on the Exchange Date, provided the LLC has
delivered one or more certificates representing Exchanged Units in the manner provided in Section 4.3(c) and paid in cash any amount required by Section 4.3(g), the Corporation will deliver or cause to be delivered at the office of the
Corporation’s transfer agent, a certificate or certificates representing the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exchange in a Share Settlement, issued in the name of the LLC or in such other name or names the LLC may
direct. If the Corporation has elected a Cash Settlement in accordance with Section 4.3(b), the Corporation will deliver the Cash Settlement amount to the LLC. Such exchange shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close
of business on the Exchange Date. The person or persons in whose name or names the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Common Stock are to be issued shall be treated for all purposes as having become the record holder or holders
of such shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the close of business on the Exchange Date. 
 (e)    In the event
of a reclassification or other similar transaction as a result of which the shares of Common Stock are converted into another security, then the LLC shall be entitled to receive upon exchange of Membership Units the amount of such security that such
holder would have received if such exchange had occurred immediately prior to the record date of such reclassification or other similar transaction. No adjustments in respect of dividends shall be made upon the exchange of any Membership Unit;
provided, however , that if a Membership Unit shall be exchanged subsequent to the record date for the payment of a dividend or other distribution on Membership Units but prior to such payment, then the registered holder of such Membership
Unit at the close of business on such record date shall be entitled to receive the dividend or other distribution payable on such Membership Unit notwithstanding the exchange thereof or the default in settlement of the exchange or payment of the
dividend or distribution due. 
 (f)    The Corporation will at all times reserve and keep available out of its
authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon exchange of Membership Units by the LLC in accordance with this Section 4.3, such number of shares of Common Stock that shall be issuable upon the exchange
of all outstanding Membership Units exchangeable hereunder; provided that nothing contained herein shall preclude the Corporation from satisfying its obligations in respect of the exchange of the outstanding Membership Units by delivery of shares of
Common Stock that are held in the treasury of the Corporation. If any shares of Common Stock require registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any federal or state law before such shares of Common Stock may be issued upon
exchange, the Corporation will cause such shares to be duly registered or approved, as the case may be. All shares of Common Stock that are issued upon exchange of the Membership Units will, upon issue, be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and be listed upon each national securities exchange, other securities exchange or automated or electronic quotation system upon which the outstanding Common Stock is listed at the time of delivery.


  
 A-3 








 (g)    The issuance of certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon
exchange of Membership Units in a Share Settlement shall be made without charge to the LLC for any stamp or other similar tax in respect of such issuance; provided, however , that if any such certificate is to be issued in a name other than
that of the LLC, then the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall pay to the LLC for remittance to the Corporation the amount of any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in such issuance or shall establish to
the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has been paid or is not payable. 
 Section 4.4    Stock
Splits, Ratios, Adjusting Outstanding Shares of Common Stock or Membership Units. 
 (a)    The Corporation shall
undertake all actions, including, without limitation, a reclassification, dividend, division or recapitalization, with respect to the shares of Common Stock or the Membership Units (in the case of the LLC, the Corporation authorizing such in its
capacity as manager of the LLC), to maintain at all times a one-to-one ratio between the number of Membership Units owned by the Corporation and the number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock, disregarding, for purposes of maintaining the one-to-one ratio, shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the Equity Incentive Plan
that have not vested thereunder, treasury stock, Preferred Stock or other securities of the Corporation that are not convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock. 

(b)    The Corporation shall not undertake or authorize (i) any subdivision (by any Membership Unit split, Membership
Unit distribution, reclassification, recapitalization or similar event) or combination (by reverse Membership Unit split, reclassification, recapitalization or similar event) of the Membership Units that is not accompanied by an identical
subdivision or combination of the Common Stock to maintain at all times a one-to-one ratio between the number of Membership Units owned by the Corporation and the number

(f)    the terms, if any, of any purchase, retirement or sinking fund to be provided for the shares of that series; 

(g)    the terms, if any, upon which the shares of that series shall be convertible into or exchangeable for shares of any
other class, classes or series, or other securities, whether or not issued by the Corporation; 
 (h)    the
restrictions, limitations and conditions, if any, upon issuance of indebtedness of the Corporation so long as any shares of that series are outstanding; and

preferential amounts to which any series of Preferred Stock is entitled, the holders of shares of Common Stock of all classes shall share equally, on a share for share basis, in the assets of the Corporation remaining for distribution to its holders
