Snyder, an individual ("Mr. Snyder") (collectively, the "Reporting Persons") with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 30, 2004, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on September 2, 2004, Amendment No. 2 filed on January 14, 2005, Amendment No. 3 filed on April 22, 2005, Amendment No. 4 filed on August 10, 2005, Amendment No. 5 filed on August 18, 2005, Amendment No. 6 filed on September 16, 2005 and Amendment No. 7 filed on October 5, 2005 (the "Schedule 13D"), relating to shares of common stock, par value $.025 per share ("Common Stock"), of Six Flags, Inc. (the "Company"). Items 4 and 7 of the Schedule 13D are amended and supplemented as follows: Item 4. Purpose of Transaction. On October 19, 2005, Red Zone filed a definitive consent solicitation statement on Schedule 14A with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with Red Zone's solicitation of consents from the Company's stockholders of record as of the close of business on October 24, 2005 (the record date set by the Company) to the following actions without a stockholders' meeting in accordance with Delaware law: (1) remove without cause Kieran Burke, James Dannhauser and Stanley Shuman from the Board and any other person or persons (other than the persons elected pursuant to the proposed action by written consent) elected or appointed to the Board of the Company prior to the effective date of Red Zone's proposals to fill any newly created directorship or vacancy on the Board; (2) elect Mark Shapiro, Daniel M. Snyder and Dwight Schar (the "Nominees") to fill the vacancies resulting from Proposal 1 to serve as members of the Board of the Company; (3) amend Section 4.1 of the Company's Bylaws to fix the number of directors permitted to serve on the Six Flags Board at seven; (4) amend Section 26.1 of the Company's Bylaws to require the unanimous vote of all directors in order for the Board to amend Section 4.1 of the Bylaws, which fixes the number of directors constituting the Board; (5) amend Section 4.4 of the Company's Bylaws to provide that vacancies on the Six Flags Board created as a result of the removal of directors by Six Flags' stockholders may be filled only by a majority vote of Six Flags' stockholders; and (6) repeal each provision of the Company's Bylaws or amendments of the Bylaws that are adopted after September 13, 2004 (the last date of reported changes) and before the effectiveness of the foregoing Proposals and the seating of the Nominees on the Board. A copy of the definitive consent solicitation statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission is filed as Exhibit 11 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. In addition to the consent solicitation and the Offer (as described in Red Zone's consent solicitation statement), the Reporting Persons may pursue other alternatives available in order to maximize the value of their investment in the Company. Such alternatives could include, without limitation, (i) the purchase of additional Common Stock in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise and (ii) the sale of all or a portion of the Common Stock now owned or hereafter acquired by them. The Reporting Persons intend to contact and consult with other stockholders of the Company and third parties concerning the Company, its prospects and any or all of the foregoing matters. The Reporting Persons reserve the right to change their plans or intentions and to take any and all actions that they may deem appropriate to maximize the value of their investment in the Company in light of their general investment policies, market conditions, subsequent developments affecting the Company and the general business and future prospects of the Company. THIS AMENDMENT IS NOT A TENDER OFFER NOR AN OFFER WITH RESPECT THERETO. AN OFFER, IF COMMENCED, WILL BE MADE ONLY BY MEANS OF AN OFFER TO PURCHASE AND RELATED LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL. STOCKHOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ RED ZONE'S TENDER OFFER MATERIALS IF AND WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION. STOCKHOLDERS WILL BE ABLE TO OBTAIN COPIES OF RED ZONE'S TENDER OFFER MATERIALS FREE OF CHARGE FROM THE SEC'S WEBSITE. Item 7. Material to be Filed as Exhibits.
