AMC Entertainment Inc. Announces Cash Tender Offer For Up to $160 Million Aggregate Principal Amount of Its Outstanding $300 Million 8% Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2014

Kansas City, Missouri (February 7, 2012) - AMC Entertainment Inc. (“AMC” or the “Company”) announced today that it is commencing a tender offer to purchase up to $160 million aggregate principal amount of its outstanding $300 million aggregate principal amount of 8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 (the “Notes”) through a cash tender offer (the “Tender Offer”), to be funded with a portion of the proceeds from new term loans under an amendment to the Company’s senior credit facilities, which was also announced today by the Company.

The Tender Offer will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on March 6, 2012, unless the Tender Offer is extended or earlier terminated (the “expiration date”).  Under the terms of the Tender Offer, holders of the Notes who validly tender and do not withdraw their Notes prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on February 21, 2012 (as such time and date may be extended, the “early tender date”) and whose notes are accepted for purchase, will receive the “total consideration,” which is equal to (i) $972.50 per $1,000.00 in principal amount of Notes validly tendered (the “tender consideration”) plus (ii) $30.00 per $1,000.00 in principal amount of the Notes validly tendered (the “early tender premium”).  Holders of the Notes who validly tender their Notes after the early tender date but on or before the expiration date, and whose notes are accepted for purchase, will receive only the tender consideration.

(1)          Per $1,000.00 principal amount of Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase.

(2)          Inclusive of early tender premium

The Company reserves the right but is under no obligation, at any point following the early tender date and before the expiration date, to accept for purchase any Notes validly tendered and not subsequently withdrawn at or prior to the early tender date (the “early settlement date”). The early settlement date will be determined at the Company’s option and is currently expected to occur on the first business day following the early tender date, subject to all conditions to the Tender Offer having been satisfied or waived by the Company. In addition, holders whose Notes are purchased in the Tender Offer will also be paid accrued and unpaid interest from the most recent interest payment date on the Notes to, but not including, the applicable settlement date.

Only up to $160 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes will be purchased by the Company.  If Notes with a greater aggregate principal amount are validly tendered and not withdrawn, the Company will purchase a prorated portion of such Notes under the terms of the Tender Offer such that the aggregate principal amount of Notes purchased is $160 million. In the event that less than $160 million of Notes are validly tendered and accepted for purchase in the Tender Offer, the Company intends to redeem an amount of Notes at a price of $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes on the earliest possible day following the

final settlement date for the Tender Offer such that an aggregate of $160 million of Notes will be retired through the Tender Offer and the redemption.  The final settlement date is expected to occur on the first business day following the expiration date, subject to all conditions to the Tender Offer having been satisfied or waived by the Company.

The Tender Offer is contingent upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the condition that AMC has successfully closed the amendment of its senior secured credit facilities, on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Company, under which it will borrow a new tranche of senior secured term loans of up to $300 million aggregate principal amount.

If any of the conditions are not satisfied, the Company is not obligated to accept for payment, purchase or pay for, and may delay the acceptance for payment of, any tendered Notes and may even terminate the Tender Offer.  Full details of the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer are included in the Company’s offer to purchase, dated February 7, 2012.

This press release does not constitute a notice of redemption under the optional redemption provisions of the indenture governing the Notes, nor does it constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any security.  No offer, solicitation, or sale will be made in any jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful.
