Item 4. Description of Securities.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

 

AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc. has agreed to indemnify and hold KPMG LLP harmless against and from any and all legal costs and expenses incurred by KPMG LLP in successful defense of any legal action or proceeding that arises as a result of KPMG LLP's consent to the incorporation by reference of its audit report on the Company's past financial statements incorporated by reference in this registration statement.

 

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) permits each corporation organized thereunder the power to indemnify any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation or enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, other than an action by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor, by reason of being or having been in any such capacity, if such person acted in good faith in a manner reasonably believed by such person to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. Section 145 of the DGCL further provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation or enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor, by reason of being or having been in any such capacity, if such person acted in good faith in a manner reasonably believed by such person to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the court shall deem proper. Section 145 of the DGCL also allows a corporation to provide contractual indemnification to its directors, and we have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors whereby we are contractually obligated to indemnify the director and advance expenses to the full extent permitted by the DGCL.

 

Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL enables a corporation in its certificate of incorporation to eliminate or limit the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders of monetary damages for breach of a fiduciary duty, except (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL (providing for liability of directors for unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions) or (iv) for any transaction from which a director derived an improper personal benefit.

  

The amended and restated certificate of incorporation of the Registrant provides for indemnification of any person made party to or threatened to be made party to any proceeding by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the company, or a person of whom such person is the legal representative, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director or officer of another corporation, or as its representative in a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, against any expenses, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection therewith. The amended and restated certificate of incorporation of the Registrant also provides that the personal liability of its directors for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director of the corporation is eliminated to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. Expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition may be paid by the corporation in advance of its final disposition, provided that if the DGCL so requires, the payment of such expenses shall only be made upon delivery to the corporation of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such person, to repay all amounts so advanced if it should be determined ultimately that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation. Neither the failure of the corporation to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL nor an actual determination that such person has failed to meet such standard of conduct shall be a defense to an action brought by a claimant whom the corporation has failed to pay in full within 30 days of having received a written claim.

Item 9. Undertakings

 

(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

 

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement;

 

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;

 

Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section shall not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

 

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Leawood, State of Kansas, on the 28th day of October, 2022.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as counsel to AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the preparation and filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission of the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), relating to the registration by the Company of up to 7,306,354 depositary shares (the “AMC Preferred Equity Units”), each of which represents an interest in one one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share of the Company’s Series A Convertible Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 (the “Preferred Stock”), which may be issued pursuant to the AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc. 2013 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended through the date hereof (the “Plan”).

 

In so acting, we have examined originals or copies (certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction) of (i) the Registration Statement, (ii) the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, as amended, (iii) the Third Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company, as amended, (iv) the Certificate of Designations designating the preferences, limitations, voting powers and relative rights of the Preferred Stock, (v) the Deposit Agreement by and among the Company and Computershare Inc. and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., jointly as depositary dated August 4, 2022 (the “Deposit Agreement”), (vi) the Plan and (vii) such corporate records, agreements, documents and other instruments, and such certificates or comparable documents of public officials and of officers and representatives of the Company, and have made such inquiries of such officers and representatives, as we have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinion hereinafter set forth.

 

In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed or photostatic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. As to all questions of fact material to this opinion that have not been independently established, we have relied upon certificates or comparable documents of officers and representatives of the Company.

 

We have also assumed that (i) no stop orders suspending the Registration Statement’s effectiveness will have been issued and remain in effect, in each case, at the time the AMC Preferred Equity Units and the Preferred Stock are offered or issued as contemplated by the Registration Statement and the Plan, (ii) the Deposit Agreement has been duly authorized and validly executed and delivered by the parties thereto (other than the Company), and (iii) all AMC Preferred Equity Units and Preferred Stock will be issued, offered and sold in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws and in the manner stated in the Registration Statement.

Based on the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications stated herein, we are of the opinion that the issuance of the AMC Preferred Equity Units and the Preferred Stock has been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered upon the receipt of consideration constituting lawful consideration under Delaware law in accordance with the Plan, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
