 AMENDMENT NUMBER ONE TO PERFORMANCE SHARE CERTIFICATES GRANTED IN 2012 AND 2013 

This Amendment Number One to the Performance Share Certificates by which Carmike Cinemas, Inc. (“Carmike”) agreed to make Stock Grants to
             (“Eligible Employee”) effective as of March 15, 2012 (the “2012 Grant”) and February 28, 2013 (the “2013 Grant”) is made and entered
into as of May 15, 2013 by and between Carmike and Eligible Employee. 
 WHEREAS, Carmike and Eligible Employee
desire to amend the terms and conditions under which Carmike will make Stock Grants to Eligible Employee under the 2012 Grant and the 2013 Grant; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, the 2012 Grant and the 2013 Grant each are hereby amended as follows, notwithstanding any provisions therein to the contrary, effective as of May 15, 2013. 

 

	 	1.	By deleting the last sentence of § 2 and replacing it with: 

 In the event that, prior to the Vesting Date, (i) Eligible Employee has a Separation from Service as a result of death or Disability or (ii) Eligible Employee has a Retirement, the Committee may
exercise its discretion to reduce the number of Target Shares earned for each Performance Period completed prior to Eligible Employee’s Separation from Service or Retirement, as applicable, to the target level for that period based on total
shareholder return. 
  

	 	2.	By amending § 3 to read as follows: 

 § 3. Vesting and Timing of Stock Grant. 
  

	 	(a)	Normal Vesting. If Eligible Employee remains continuously employed by Carmike through the Vesting Date, Eligible Employee will become fully vested on the Vesting
Date. 

 Any opportunity to earn or interest in Target Shares for any Performance Period that begins after
Eligible Employee’s Separation from Service will be forfeited upon Eligible Employee’s Separation from Service. 







 If Eligible Employee vests under this § 3(a), the Committee will make a Stock Grant to
Eligible Employee for the number of shares of Stock earned by Eligible Employee pursuant to § 2 within 45 days after the Vesting Date. 
  

	 	(b)	Death or Disability Vesting. If Eligible Employee has a Separation from Service as a result of death or Disability prior to the Vesting Date, Eligible Employee
will become fully vested with respect to (i) the actual number of shares of Stock earned by Eligible Employee for each Performance Period completed prior to Eligible Employee’s Separation from Service, as determined by the Committee
pursuant to § 2, and (ii) a pro rata portion of the number of Target Shares for the Performance Period during which Eligible Employee has a Separation from Service as a result of death or Disability equal to the product of
(A) the number of Target Shares for such Performance Period and (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Performance Period preceding Eligible Employee’s Separation from Service and the denominator of which
is 365. 

 If Eligible Employee vests under this § 3(b), then subject to the delay described in
§ 3(f), the Committee will make a Stock Grant to Eligible Employee (or in the case of death, to Eligible Employee’s estate) equal to the number of shares of Stock described in this § 3(b) within 45 days after Eligible
Employee’s Separation from Service as a result of death or Disability. 
  

	 	(c)	Retirement Vesting. If Eligible Employee has a Retirement prior to the Vesting Date, Eligible Employee will become fully vested with respect to (i) the
actual number of shares of Stock earned by Eligible Employee for each Performance Period completed prior to Eligible Employee’s Retirement, as determined by the Committee pursuant to § 2, and (ii) a pro rata portion of the number
of shares of Stock actually earned by Eligible Employee for the Performance Period during which Eligible Employee has a Retirement equal to the product of (A) the number of shares of Stock actually earned by Eligible Employee for such
Performance Period, as determined by the Committee pursuant to § 2 after the end of such Performance Period, and (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Performance Period preceding Eligible Employee’s
Retirement and the denominator of which is 365. 

 Any opportunity to earn or interest in Target Shares for any
Performance Period that begins after Eligible Employee’s Retirement will be forfeited 

  
 2 








 If Eligible Employee vests under this § 3(c), then subject to the delay described
in § 3(f), the Committee will make a Stock Grant to Eligible Employee for the number of shares of Stock described in (i) of the first sentence of this § 3(c) within 30 days after Eligible Employee’s Retirement and for
the number of shares of Stock described in (ii) of the first sentence of this § 3(c) within 45 days after March 1 immediately following the end of the Performance Period during which Eligible Employee’s Retirement occurs.
 
  

	 	(d)	Change in Control Vesting. In the event of a Change in Control prior to the Vesting Date and prior to the termination of Eligible Employee’s employment with
Carmike, Eligible Employee will become fully vested with respect to (i) the actual number of shares of Stock earned by Eligible Employee for each Performance Period completed prior to the Change in Control, as determined by the Committee
pursuant to § 2, and (ii) the number of Target Shares as shown in § 1 for the Performance Period during which the Change in Control occurs and for each succeeding Performance Period covered by this Performance Share
Certificate. 

 If Eligible Employee vests under this § 3(d), the Committee will make a Stock Grant to
Eligible Employee for the number of shares of Stock described in this § 3(d) (i) within 30 days after the Change in Control if it is a Section 409A Change in Control or (ii) at the time described in § 3(a) if the
Change in Control is not a Section 409A Change in Control unless Eligible Employee Separates from Service as a result of death or Disability prior to that time, in which case the Stock Grant will be made at the time described in
§ 3(b), or Eligible Employee has a Retirement prior to that time, in which case the Stock Grant will be made at the time described in § 3(c). 
  

	 	(e)	Forfeiture Upon Other Termination of Continuous Employment. If Eligible Employee’s employment with Carmike terminates prior to the Vesting Date and prior to
a Change in Control for any reason other than Eligible Employee’s death, Disability or Retirement, Eligible Employee shall forfeit any opportunity to earn or interest in Target Shares under this Performance Share Certificate.


  

	 	(f)	 Six Month Delay for Specified Employees. To the extent that a Stock Grant is made as a result of Eligible Employee’s Separation from
Service on account of Disability or Retirement and at the time of such Separation from Service or Retirement, Eligible Employee is a “specified employee” as determined in accordance with Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code and the
regulations thereunder, the Stock Grant will be delayed until the earlier of the

first day of the seventh month after Eligible Employee’s Separation from Service or Retirement or the date of the Eligible Employee’s death. 

 

	 	(g)	Date of Grant. The Committee will determine the actual date of the Stock Grant within the applicable period specified under this § 3. In the event the
applicable period spans more than one taxable year of Eligible Employee, Eligible Employee will have no right to designate the date of the Stock Grant.
