On February 14, 2016, Jian (Winston) Wang provided AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc. (“AMCH”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, AMC Entertainment Inc. (collectively, “AMC”), with notice of his resignation from the Boards of Directors of AMC (collectively, the “Board”), effective immediately.  Mr. Wang resigned to focus on his commitments with Dalian Wanda Group Co., Ltd., AMC’s controlling shareholder, and his resignation did not involve any disagreement between Mr. Wang and AMC on any matter related to AMC’s operations, policies, practices, or otherwise.  Mr. Wang served as a Class I Director of AMCH and on the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of AMCH.

On February 16, 2016, the AMCH Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommended, and the Board elected, Gary F. Locke, as a director of AMC, effective immediately.  The board of directors of AMCH also elected Mr. Locke as a member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the board of directors of AMCH.  Mr. Locke was elected to fill the vacancy on the Board created by Mr. Wang’s resignation.  Mr. Locke will serve as a Class I director of AMCH with a term expiring at AMCH’s 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

On February 16, 2016, the AMCH Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommended, and the Board elected, Zeng Mao Jun (John Zeng) as a director of AMC, effective immediately.  Mr. Zeng was elected to fill the vacancy on the Board created by the resignation of Mr. Ye, which was previously reported by AMC.  Mr. Zeng will serve as a Class II director of AMCH with a term expiring at AMCH’s 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.  Mr. Zeng has not currently been appointed to any committees of the AMCH board of directors.

Mr. Locke will receive compensation under the AMCH Non-Employee Director Compensation Plan.  He will receive an annual cash retainer of $50,000 for service on the Board and $5,000 for service on the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and an annual stock award under the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan with a value of $100,000. All amounts will be calculated on a prorated basis for the remainder of 2016.  Mr. Zeng will not receive any compensation as a result of his service on the Board of AMC or any committee of the Board of AMCH.

In connection with their election to the Board, each of Mr. Locke and Mr. Zeng will enter into an indemnification agreement with AMCH pursuant to which AMCH will agree to indemnify each from certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status as a director and to advance certain expenses incurred by each.  The form of indemnification agreement was filed as an exhibit to Amendment No. 3 to AMCH’s Form S-1 Registration Statement, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 22, 2013, and the terms of the indemnification agreement are incorporated herein by reference.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Locke or Mr. Zeng and any other persons pursuant to which either was selected a director of AMC.  There are no transactions between either Mr. Locke or Mr. Zeng, on the one hand, and AMC on the other, that would be required to be reported under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
