Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

On February 13, 2007, the Issuer, National CineMedia, LLC (“NCM LLC”), Regal CineMedia Holdings, LLC (“Regal CineMedia”), American Multi-Cinema, Inc., Cinemark Media, Inc., Regal Cinemas, Inc. and Cinemark USA, Inc. entered into a Common Unit Adjustment Agreement (“Common Unit Adjustment Agreement”), which is incorporated by reference to Exhibit A hereto.  The Common Unit Adjustment Agreement provides a mechanism for adjusting units in NCM LLC (“NCM Units”) held by the members of NCM LLC (the “Founding Members”), based on increases or decreases in attendance associated with theatre additions and dispositions by each Founding Member.  NCM Units are immediately redeemable on a one-to-one basis for shares of Common Stock, or a cash payment equal to the market price of one share of Common Stock.  The Issuer is the sole manager of NCM LLC, and NCM LLC is the Issuer’s operating subsidiary.

 

5



 

The securities giving rise to this Schedule 13D were obtained pursuant to the terms of the Common Unit Adjustment Agreement, which provides that increases in attendance associated with theatre additions are to be included in a Founding Member’s unit adjustment if arising from acquisition of a theatre or opening of a newly constructed theatre, except that lease renewals and extensions are not included and acquired theatres, subject to an agreement with an alternative cinema advertising provider, will not be included until certain run out payments are made to NCM LLC by the Founding Member acquiring the theatre pursuant to its Exhibitor Services Agreement (“ESA”) or until such third party cinema advertising agreement expires.

Decreases in attendance associated with theatre dispositions are included in the unit adjustment if arising from the closure or sale of a theatre, unless the purchaser or sublessee enters into an agreement with NCM LLC similar to the ESA, the theatre is closed at the end of its lease term in effect on February 13, 2007, the theatre is closed at the end of an initial term of a lease entered into after February 13, 2007, or a non-digitized theatre is closed within the last three years of the term of a lease in effect on February 13, 2007.

The adjustment of membership units pursuant to the Common Unit Adjustment Agreement is conducted annually (“Annual Adjustment”), except that an earlier adjustment will occur for a Founding Member if its acquisition or disposition of theatres, in a single transaction or cumulatively since the most recent adjustment, will cause a change of two percent or more in the total annual attendance (an “Extraordinary Adjustment”).

On April 9, 2008, due to Regal CineMedia’s net new theatres and attendees in 2007, Regal CineMedia received 758,793 NCM Units pursuant to the 2007 Annual Adjustment.  Furthermore, on January 14, 2008, Regal entered into an agreement to acquire Consolidated Theatres, L.L.C., consisting of a total of 28 theatres with 400 screens in Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia.  Regal consummated the transaction on April 30, 2008 for a total cash purchase price of $210.0 million, subject to post-closing adjustments.  On May 14, 2008, the Issuer notified Regal that an Extraordinary Adjustment was made due to Regal’s acquisition of Consolidated Theatres, L.L.C., and Regal’s wholly owned subsidiary, Regal CineMedia, received 2,913,754 additional NCM Units.  Thus, including both the 2007 Annual Adjustment and the Extraordinary Adjustment, Regal CineMedia currently owns 24,903,259 NCM Units, or approximately 37.2% of the Issuer’s Common Stock on an as-converted basis.  In accordance with the terms of the Common Unit Adjustment Agreement, no payments were made by or on behalf of any party in exchange for the NCM Units received by Regal CineMedia pursuant to the 2007 Annual Adjustment and the Extraordinary Adjustment.

 

 

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction

Regal CineMedia acquired the NCM Units for investment purposes pursuant to the terms of the Common Unit Adjustment Agreement.  Apart from continuing to give effect to the Common Unit Adjustment Agreement, none of the reporting persons is currently aware of any plans or proposals that would relate to or result in any of the events enumerated in Item 4(a)-(j).

 

 

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a)       Including the 2,913,754 NCM Units that Regal’s wholly owned subsidiary, Regal CineMedia, obtained on May 14, 2008, Regal currently may be deemed to beneficially own 24,903,259 shares of Common Stock through Regal CineMedia’s ownership of 24,903,259 NCM Units.  NCM Units are immediately redeemable on a one-to-one basis for shares of Common Stock, or a cash payment equal to the market price of one share of Common Stock.  Regal’s beneficial ownership of 24,903,259 shares of Common Stock equals approximately 37.2% of the Issuer’s issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock on an as-converted basis.

Regal CineMedia is a wholly owned subsidiary of Regal CineMedia Corporation (“RCM”).  RCM is a wholly owned subsidiary of Regal Cinemas Inc. (“RCI”).  RCI is a wholly owned subsidiary of Regal Cinemas Corporation (“RCC”).  RCC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Regal Entertainment Holdings, Inc. (“REH”).  REH is a wholly owned subsidiary of Regal.  As a result, each of them may be deemed to share the power to vote and dispose of the Shares of Common Stock that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by Regal.

Anschutz Company beneficially owns 73,708,639 shares of Class A Common Stock (“Class A Common Stock”) of Regal through its ownership of 23,708,639 shares of Class B Common Stock of Regal, which are convertible into a like number of shares of Class A Common Stock and 50,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock.  Such ownership represents approximately 78.3% of the voting power of Regal.  Therefore, Anschutz Company may be deemed to control Regal.  Philip F. Anschutz owns 100% of the outstanding capital stock of

Anschutz Company.  Therefore, Mr. Anschutz may be deemed to control Anschutz Company.  As a result, each of them may be deemed to share the power to vote and dispose of the shares of Common Stock that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by Regal.

None of the executive officers or directors of Regal or Anschutz Company, who are listed in Schedule A hereto, owns any shares of Common Stock, except as follows: Richard M. Jones, Vice President, Senior General Counsel and Secretary of Anschutz Company owns 500 shares of Common Stock and has sole voting and dispositive power with respect thereto.  Richard M. Jones purchased such 500 shares for investment purposes with $10,505 of his own funds, and he is the only person with the right to receive or the power to direct receipt of dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, such 500 shares.  Each of the reporting persons expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock owned by Richard M. Jones. 

By virtue of their relationship, Regal, Anschutz Company or Mr. Anschutz may be deemed to beneficially own the Common Stock subject of this Schedule 13D.  Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that any person, other than Regal, named in Item 2 or Schedule A is the beneficial owner of the Common Stock subject of this Schedule 13D for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.

(b)      Regal does not have the sole power to vote or to direct the vote, or sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of, any of the Common Stock subject of this Schedule 13D.  Regal has shared power to vote and to direct the vote, and has or may be deemed to have shared power to dispose of or direct the disposition of, the Common Stock subject of this Schedule 13D with the persons listed in Item 5(a).  The information required by Item 2 with respect to each person listed in Item 5(a) is provided below:

·          See Item 2 for information related to Regal, Anschutz Company and Mr. Anschutz.

·          See Schedule A for information related to officers and directors of Regal and Anschutz Company.

·          The information provided below, except for State of Organization, pertains to all of the following Regal subsidiaries: Regal CineMedia; RCM; RCI; RCC; and REH.

·                  Business Address: 7132 Regal Lane, Knoxville, TN 37918

·                  Principal Business: Operation of movie theaters throughout the United States.

·                  Certain Criminal Convictions: None.

·                  Certain Civil Judgments: None.

·                  State of Organization: Regal CineMedia, RCI, RCC and REH are Delaware entities and RCM is a Virginia entity.

(c)       Except as described in this Schedule D, to the knowledge of Regal, Anschutz Company, Mr. Anschutz and the individuals listed in Schedule A, none of the persons listed in Item 5(a) has entered into any transaction involving the securities subject of this Schedule 13D within the past sixty days.

(d)      The Issuer, Regal, Regal CineMedia, American Multi-Cinema, Inc., and Cinemark Media, Inc. are parties to a Director Designation Agreement dated February 13, 2007 (“Director Designation Agreement”), which is incorporated by reference to Exhibit B hereto.  Pursuant to the Director Designation Agreement, so long as Regal owns at least 5% of the total issued and outstanding NCM Units, Regal will have the right to designate two nominees to NCM’s ten-member board of directors.  If at any time and only during such time, Regal owns less than 5% of the total issued and outstanding NCM Units, then Regal will cease to have any rights of designation.  One of the two Regal designees must qualify as an independent director under Nasdaq rules.  Thus, so long as Regal’s designated directors remain on NCM’s board, they will participate in any board decisions regarding the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, Common Stock.

(e)       Not applicable.

(1)                                  execute for me and on my behalf, in my capacity as an individual and in my capacity as an officer and/or director of Anschutz Company and The Anschutz Corporation (the “Companies”), Forms 3, 4, and 5 and Schedules 13D and 13G and any Amendments thereto, in accordance with Sections 13 and 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules thereunder;

 

(2)                                  do and perform any and all acts for me and on my behalf which may be necessary or desirable to complete and execute any such Forms 3, 4, or 5 and Schedules 13D and 13G and any Amendments thereto and timely file such Form, Schedule or Amendment with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and any stock exchange or similar authority; and

 

(3)                                  take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with the foregoing which, in the opinion of the attorney-in-fact, may be of benefit to, in the best interest of, or legally required by me, it being understood that the documents executed by the attorney-in-fact on my behalf pursuant to the Power of Attorney shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as the attorney-in-fact may approve in his discretion.

 

I hereby grant to the attorney-in-fact full power and authority to do and perform any and every act and thing whatsoever requisite, necessary, or proper to be done in the exercise of any of the rights and powers herein granted as fully to all intents and purposes as I might or could do if personally present, with full power of substitution or revocation, hereby ratifying and confirming all that the attorney-in-fact, or the attorney-in-fact’s substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of this Power of Attorney and the rights and powers herein granted.  I hereby acknowledge that the foregoing attorney-in-fact, in serving in such capacity at my request, is not assuming, nor are the Companies assuming, any of my responsibilities to comply with Section 13 or 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

 

This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until I am no longer required to file Forms 3, 4 and 5 and Schedules 13D and 13G and any Amendments thereto, unless I earlier revoke this Power of Attorney in a signed writing delivered to the attorney-in-fact.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I hereby cause this Power of Attorney to be executed as of this 21st day of October, 1999.
