AMCE's Senior Secured Credit Facility

The Senior Secured Credit Facility is with a syndicate of banks and other financial institutions. The Senior Secured Credit Facility also provides for a Revolving Credit Facility, including a borrowing capacity which is available for letters of credit and for swingline borrowings on same-day notice.

Senior Secured Credit Facility. On April 30, 2013, AMCE entered into a $925,000,000 Senior Secured Credit Facility pursuant to which AMCE borrowed term loans and used the proceeds to fund the redemption of the former Senior Secured Credit Facility term loans. The Senior Secured Credit Facility was comprised of a $150,000,000 Revolving Credit Facility, which matured on April 30, 2018 (the "Revolving Credit Facility"), and a $775,000,000 term loan, which matured on April 30, 2020 (the "Term Loan due 2020"). The Term Loan due 2020 required repayments of principal of 0.25% of the original principal amount, or $1,937,500, per quarter, with the remaining principal payable upon maturity. The term loan was issued at a 0.25% discount, which was amortized to interest expense over the term of the loan. AMCE capitalized deferred financing costs of approximately $6,909,000 related to the issuance of the Revolving Credit Facility and approximately $2,217,000 related to the issuance of the Term Loan due 2020. Concurrently with the Term Loan due 2020 borrowings on April 30, 2013, AMCE redeemed all of the outstanding former Senior Secured Credit Facility at a redemption price of 100% of the outstanding aggregate principal balance of $760,338,000, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Company recorded a net gain of approximately $130,000 in other expense (income), which consisted of a premium write-off, partially offset by the third-party costs incurred in connection with the repurchase due to the former Senior Secured Credit Facility term loans, during the twelve months ended December 31, 2013.

First Amendment. On December 11, 2015, AMCE entered into a first amendment to its Senior Secured Credit Agreement dated April 30, 2013 ("First Amendment"). The First Amendment provides for the incurrence of $125,000,000 incremental term loans ("Incremental Term Loan"). In addition, the First Amendment, among other things, (a) extends the maturity date with respect to (i) the existing Term Loan due 2020 and the Incremental Term Loan (together "Term Loan due 2022") to December 15, 2022 and (ii) the Revolving Credit Facility from April 30, 2018 to December 15, 2020 and (b) increases the applicable margin for the Term Loan due 2022 from 1.75% with respect to base rate borrowings to 2.25% and 2.75% with respect to LIBOR borrowings to 3.25%. AMCE capitalized additional deferred financing costs of approximately $6,545,000 related to the modification of the Revolving Credit Facility and approximately $3,329,000 related to the modification of the term loans under the Senior Secured Credit Facility. The proceeds of the Incremental Term Loan were used by AMCE to pay expenses related to the First Amendment transactions and the Starplex Cinemas acquisition. The Company recorded a loss of approximately $1,366,000 in other expense (income) during the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, which consisted of third-party costs, deferred financing costs, and discount write-off incurred in connection with the modification of the Senior Secured Credit Facility. At December 31, 2015, the aggregate principal balance of the Term Loan due 2022 was $880,625,000 and borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility were $75,000,000. As of December 31, 2015, AMCE had approximately $62,059,000 available for borrowing, net of letters of credit, under its Revolving Credit Facility.

Borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to an applicable margin plus, at the Company's option, either a base rate or LIBOR. The minimum rate for base rate borrowings is 1.75% and the minimum rate for LIBOR-based borrowings is 0.75%. The applicable margin for the Term loan due 2022 is 2.25% for base rate borrowings and 3.25% for LIBOR based loans. The applicable margin for the Revolving Credit Facility ranges from 1.25% to 1.5% for base rate borrowings and from 2.25% to 2.5% for LIBOR based borrowings. The Revolving Credit Facility also provides for an unused commitment fee of 0.50% per annum and for letter of credit fees of up to 0.25% per annum plus the applicable margin for LIBOR-based borrowings on the undrawn amount of the letter of credit. The applicable rate for borrowings under the Term Loan due 2022 at December 31, 2015 was 4.0% based on LIBOR (3.25% margin plus 0.75% minimum LIBOR rate). Prior to redemption, the applicable rate for borrowings under the Term Loan due 2020 at December 10, 2015 was 3.5% based on LIBOR (2.75% margin plus 0.75% minimum LIBOR rate). The Term Loan due 2022 requires repayments of principal of 0.25% of the original principal amount, or $2,201,500 per quarter, with any remaining balance due on December 15, 2022. AMCE may voluntarily repay outstanding loans under the Senior Secured Credit Facility at any time without premium or penalty, other than customary "breakage" costs with respect to LIBOR loans.

The Senior Secured Credit Facility contains a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict, subject to certain exceptions, the ability of AMCE and its subsidiaries, to sell assets; incur additional indebtedness; prepay other indebtedness (including the notes); pay dividends and distributions or repurchase their capital stock; create liens on assets; make investments; make acquisitions; engage in mergers or consolidations; engage in transactions with affiliates; amend constituent documents and material agreements governing subordinated indebtedness, including the 5.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2022 and the 5.75% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2025; change the business conducted by it and its subsidiaries; and enter into agreements that restrict dividends from subsidiaries. In addition, the Senior Secured Credit Facility requires AMCE and its subsidiaries to maintain, on the last day of each fiscal quarter, a net senior secured leverage ratio, as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facility, of no more than 3.25 to 1 as long as the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility remain outstanding. The Senior Secured Credit Facility also contains certain customary affirmative covenants and events of default, including the occurrence of (i) a change in control, as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facility, (ii) defaults under other indebtedness of AMCE, any guarantor or any significant subsidiary having a principal amount of $25,000,000 or more, and (iii) one or more uninsured judgments against the AMCE, any guarantor, or any significant subsidiary for an aggregate amount exceeding $25,000,000 with respect to which enforcement proceedings are brought or a stay of enforcement is not in effect for any period of 60 consecutive days.

All obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facility are guaranteed by each of AMCE's wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries. All obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, and the guarantees of those obligations (as well as cash management obligations), are secured by substantially all of AMCE's assets as well as those of each subsidiary guarantor. Holdings is not a party to the Senior Secured Credit Agreement and is not a guarantor of the obligations thereunder.

On June 9, 2009, AMCE issued $600,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 8.75% Senior Notes due 2019 (the "Notes due 2019") issued under an indenture with U.S. Bank, National Association, as trustee. The Notes due 2019 bear interest at a rate of 8.75% per annum, payable on June 1 and December 1 of each year (commencing on December 1, 2009), and have a maturity date of June 1, 2019.

Financial Covenants

Each indenture relating to the Notes due 2025 and the Notes due 2022 allows AMCE to incur specified permitted indebtedness (as defined therein) without restriction. Each indenture also allows AMCE to incur any amount of additional debt as long as it can satisfy the coverage ratio of each indenture, after giving effect to the indebtedness on a pro forma basis. Under the indentures for the Notes due 2022 and Notes due 2025, at December 31, 2015 AMCE could borrow approximately $2,537,700,000 (assuming an interest rate of 7.0% per annum on the additional indebtedness) in addition to specified permitted indebtedness. If AMCE cannot satisfy the coverage ratios of the indentures, generally it can borrow an additional amount under the Senior Secured Credit Facility. The indentures also contain restrictions on AMCE's ability to make distributions to Holdings. Under the most restrictive provision set forth in the note indenture for the Notes due 2022, as of December 31, 2015, the amount of loans and dividends which AMCE could make to Holdings could not exceed approximately $1,218,246,000 in the aggregate.

As of December 31, 2015, AMCE was in compliance with all financial covenants relating to the Senior Secured Credit Facility, the Notes due 2022, and the Notes due 2025.
