−Removed: This requires that the Company achieve significant increases in attendance levels beginning in the third quarter of 2021 and ultimately reaching 85 % of pre COVID-19 attendance levels by the fourth quarter of 2021 and through the first and second quarters of 2022, as the vaccine rollout continues and more Hollywood product is released in its theatres.
−Removed: The Company entered into the Ninth Amendment (as defined below) to the Credit Agreement (as defined below) pursuant to which the requisite revolving lenders party thereto agreed to extend the suspension period for the financial covenant applicable to the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below) from March 31, 2021 to March 31, 2022, as described, and on the terms and conditions specified, therein.

−Removed: The Company’s liquidity needs thereafter will depend, among other things, on the timing of a full resumption of operations, the timing of movie releases and its ability to generate cash from operations.
−Removed: The Company continues to explore potential sources of additional liquidity, including:
−Removed: ● Additional equity financing.
−Removed: On April 27, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) determined not to seek stockholder approval of the proposal to approve an amendment to the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the total number of shares of Class A common stock (par value $ 0.01 per share) the Company shall have the authority to issue by 500,000,000 shares to a total of 1,024,173,073 shares of Class A common stock (“Proposal 1”), and has withdrawn Proposal 1 from the agenda for the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”).

−Removed: See Note 13 — Subsequent Event for information regarding the additional at-the-market offerings of 43 million shares related to the Company’s remaining authorized shares of Class A common stock.
−Removed: The amount of liquidity the Company might generate will primarily depend on the market price of its Class A common stock, trading volumes, which impact the number of shares the Company is able to sell, and the available periods during which sales may be made.
−Removed: Because the Company’s market price and trading volumes are volatile, there is no guarantee as to the amounts of liquidity it might generate or that its prior experience accurately predicts the results the Company will achieve.
−Removed: ● Landlord negotiations .
−Removed: Commencing in 2021, the Company’s cash expenditures for rent are scheduled to increase significantly as a result of rent obligations that had been deferred to 2021 and future years that were approximately $ 473.0 million as of March 31, 2021.
−Removed: In light of the Company’s liquidity challenges, and in order to establish its long-term viability, the Company believes it must continue to reach accommodations with its landlords to abate or defer a substantial portion of the Company’s rent obligations, in addition to generating sufficient amounts of liquidity through equity issuances and the other potential financing arrangements discussed below.
−Removed: Accordingly, the Company entered into additional landlord negotiations to seek material reductions, abatements and deferrals in its rent obligations.
−Removed: In connection with these negotiations, the Company has finalized agreements or agreements in principle with the landlords for a majority of leases where the Company has entered into negotiations.
−Removed: To the extent the Company achieves substantial deferrals but not abatements, its cash requirements will increase substantially in the future.
−Removed: ● Other creditor discussions .
−Removed: While the liquidity the Company has raised has substantially extended its liquidity runway, the new debt the Company has issued or that has been committed, together with the higher interest rate payments that will be required in the future but have largely been deferred, will substantially increase its leverage and future cash requirements.
−Removed: These future cash requirements, like the Company’s deferred rent obligations, will present a challenge to its long-term viability if its operating income does not return to pre-COVID levels.
−Removed: Even then, the Company believes it will need to engage in discussions with its creditors to substantially reduce its leverage.
−Removed: The Company expects to continue to explore alternatives that include new-
−Removed: money financing and may involve converting debt to equity, which would help manage its leverage but could be dilutive to holders of its common stock.
−Removed: These discussions may not result in any agreement on commercially acceptable terms.
−Removed: ● Covenant suspension.
−Removed: The Company entered into the Ninth Amendment, pursuant to which the requisite revolving lenders party thereto agreed to extend the suspension period for the financial covenant applicable to the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility from March 31, 2021 to March 31, 2022, as described, and on the terms and conditions specified, therein.
+Added: Recent updates to the Company’s liquidity enhancement initiatives are as follows:
+Added: ● The launch of two additional “at-the-market” equity offerings to raise capital through the sale of the Company’s Class A common stock.
+Added: During April and May of 2021, the Company sold 43.0 million shares, generating $ 427.5 million in gross proceeds and paid fees to sales agents of $ 10.7 million.

+Added: sold 11.55 million shares, generating $ 587.4 million in gross proceeds and paid fees to sales agents of $ 14.7 million and other fees of $ 0.3 million.
+Added: ● The June 2021 issuance of 8.5 million shares of Class A common stock to Mudrick Capital Management, LP (“Mudrick”) in a private placement for $ 230.5 million in gross proceeds and paid fees of approximately $ 0.1 million related to this transaction.
+Added: The Company believes its existing cash and cash equivalents, together with cash generated from operations, will be sufficient to fund its operations, satisfy its obligations, including cash outflows for deferred rent and planned capital expenditures, and comply with minimum liquidity and financial covenant requirements under its debt covenants related to borrowings pursuant to the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and Odeon Term Loan Facility for at least the next 12 months.
+Added: In order to achieve net positive operating cash flows and long-term profitability, the Company believes it will need to increase attendance levels significantly from their current levels to achieve levels in line with pre COVID-19 attendance.
+Added: The Company believes the global re-opening of its theatres, the anticipated volume of titles available for theatrical release, and the anticipated broad appeal of many of those titles will support increased attendance levels.
+Added: However, there remain significant risks that may negatively impact attendance, including a resurgence of COVID related restrictions, potential movie-goer reluctance to attend theatres due to concerns about the COVID variant strains, movie studios release schedules and direct to streaming or other changing movie studio practices.
+Added: The Company entered the Ninth Amendment (as defined below) to the Credit Agreement (as defined below) pursuant to which the requisite revolving lenders party thereto agreed to extend the suspension period for the financial covenant (the secured leverage ratio) applicable to the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below) from March 31, 2021 to March 31, 2022 (the “Extended Covenant Suspension Period”), as described, and on the terms and conditions specified, therein.
+Added: The Company is currently subject to minimum liquidity requirements of approximately $ 145 million, of which $ 100 million is required under the conditions for the Extended Covenant Suspension Period, as amended, under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, and £ 32.5 million (approximately $ 45 million) of which is required under the Odeon Term Loan Facility.
+Added: Following the expiration of the Extended Covenant Suspension Period, the Company will be subject to the financial covenant under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, beginning with the quarter ending June 30, 2022.
+Added: The Company currently expects it will be able to comply with this financial covenant.

−Removed: ● Joint-venture or other arrangements with existing business partners and minority investments in capital stock.
−Removed: The Company continues to explore other potential arrangements, including equity investments, to generate additional liquidity.
−Removed: It is very difficult to estimate the Company’s liquidity requirements, future cash burn rates and future attendance levels.
−Removed: Depending on the Company’s assumptions regarding the timing and ability to achieve more normalized levels of operating revenue, the estimates of amounts of required liquidity vary significantly.
−Removed: Similarly, it is very difficult to predict when theatre attendance levels will normalize, which the Company expects will depend on the widespread availability and use of effective vaccines for the coronavirus.
−Removed: However, the Company’s current cash burn rates are not sustainable.
−Removed: Further, the Company cannot accurately predict what future changes may occur to the supply or release date of movie titles available for theatrical exhibition once moviegoers are prepared to return in large numbers.
−Removed: Nor can the Company know with certainty the impact on consumer movie-going behavior of Warner Bros.’s decision to release its entire 2021 slate of movies on HBO Max at the same time as the movies debut in theatres, or the potential attendance impact of other studio decisions to accelerate in home availability of their theatrical movies.
−Removed: Studio negotiations regarding evolving theatrical release models and film licensing terms are ongoing.
−Removed: There can be no assurance that the attendance levels and other assumptions used to estimate the Company’s liquidity requirements and future cash burn rates will be correct, and its ability to be predictive is uncertain due to the unknown magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic.
−Removed: Further, there can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in generating the additional liquidity necessary to meet its obligations beyond twelve months from the issuance of these financial statements on terms acceptable to the Company or at all.
−Removed: If the Company is unable to maintain or renegotiate its minimum liquidity covenant requirements, it could have a significant adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and operating results.
−Removed: The Company also realized significant cancellation of debt income (“CODI”) in connection with its debt restructuring.
−Removed: As a result of such CODI, the Company estimates a significant portion of its net operating losses will be eliminated as a result of tax attribute reductions.
−Removed: Any loss of tax attributes as a result of such CODI may adversely affect the Company’s cash flows and therefore its ability to service its indebtedness.
+Added: The Company’s liquidity needs thereafter will depend, among other things, on the timing of a full resumption of operations, the timing of movie releases and its ability to generate cash from operations.
+Added: The Company received rent concessions provided by the lessors that aided in mitigating the economic effects of COVID-19 during the pandemic.
+Added: These concessions primarily consisted of rent abatements and the deferral of rent payments.
