ITEM 7.01     REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE.

 

Lions Gate Entertainment Inc. (“LGEI”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Lions Gate Entertainment Corp. (the “Company”), announced on May 10, 2011 that it is amending certain terms of its previously announced consent solicitation from holders of its outstanding $236 million 10.25% senior secured second-priority notes due 2016 (the “Notes”) to effect certain proposed amendments (the “Proposed Amendments”) to the indenture governing the Notes.  Pursuant to the amended terms of the consent solicitation, the Proposed Amendments would enable LGEI to issue additional notes having the same terms as the Notes, except for the issue date, issue price and first interest payment in an aggregate principal amount of up to $200 million (instead of $150 million as previously announced).  LGEI also announced that it is increasing the consent payment to be paid in connection with the consent solicitation from $20 to $23.75 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes.  A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to purchase or sell, a solicitation of an offer to purchase or sell, or a solicitation of consents with respect to any securities.  The consent solicitation is not being made in any jurisdiction in which the consent solicitation is unlawful.

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements related to LGEI’s intention to solicit consents to the Proposed Amendments.  These forward-looking statements reflect the Company’s current views with respect to future events and are based on assumptions and are subject to risks and uncertainties.  Except as required by federal securities laws, the Company does not intend to update you concerning any future revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date hereof.

 

The Company is furnishing the information in this Current Report on Form 8-K to comply with Regulation FD. Such information shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any of the Company’s filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof and regardless of any general incorporation language in such filings, except to the extent expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
