Item 1.01.             Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 2, 2015, Regal Cinemas Corporation (“Regal Cinemas”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Regal Entertainment Group (“REG”), entered into a seventh amended and restated credit agreement (the “Amended Senior Credit Facility”), with Credit Suisse AG as Administrative Agent (“Credit Suisse”) and the lenders party thereto which amends, restates and refinances the sixth amended and restated credit agreement (the “Prior Senior Credit Facility”) among Regal Cinemas, Credit Suisse, Cayman Islands Branch, and the lenders party thereto.  The Amended Senior Credit Facility consists of a term loan facility (the “Term Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of $965.76 million with a final maturity date in April 2022 and a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of $85.0 million with a final maturity date in April 2020.  The Term Facility amortizes in equal quarterly installments in an aggregate annual amount equal to 1.0% of the original principal amount of the Term Facility, with the balance payable on the Term Facility maturity date. Proceeds of the Term Facility were applied to refinance the term loan under the Prior Senior Credit Facility, which had an aggregate outstanding principal balance of approximately $963.25 million.  No amounts have been drawn on the Revolving Facility.  The Amended Senior Credit Facility also permits Regal Cinemas to borrow additional term loans thereunder in an amount of up to $200.0 million, plus additional amounts as would not cause the consolidated total leverage ratio to exceed 3.00:1.00, in each case, subject to lenders providing additional commitments for such amounts and the satisfaction of certain other customary conditions. The obligations of Regal Cinemas are secured by, among other things, a lien on substantially all of its tangible and intangible personal property (including but not limited to accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, general intangibles, investment property, deposit and securities accounts, and intellectual property) and certain owned real property.  The obligations under the Amended Senior Credit Facility are also guarantied by certain subsidiaries of Regal Cinemas and secured by a lien on all or substantially all of such subsidiaries’ personal property and certain owned real property pursuant to that certain second amended and restated guaranty and collateral agreement, dated as of May 19, 2010  among Regal Cinemas Corporation, certain subsidiaries of Regal Cinemas Corporation party thereto and Credit Suisse (the “Amended Guaranty Agreement”).  The obligations are further guarantied by Regal Entertainment Holdings, Inc., on a limited recourse basis, with such guaranty being secured by a lien on the capital stock of Regal Cinemas.

Borrowings under the Amended Senior Credit Facility bear interest, at Regal Cinemas’ option, at either a base rate or an adjusted LIBOR rate plus, in each case, an applicable margin of 2.0% in the case of base rate loans or 3.0%  in the case of LIBOR rate loans. Interest is payable (a) in the case of base rate loans, quarterly in arrears, and (b) in the case of LIBOR rate loans, at the end of each interest period, but in no event less often than every 3 months.

Regal Cinemas may prepay borrowings under the Amended Senior Credit Facility, in whole or in part, in minimum amounts and subject to other conditions set forth in the Amended Senior Credit Facility.  Regal Cinemas is required to make mandatory prepayments with:

·                  50% of excess cash flow in any fiscal year (as reduced by voluntary repayments of the Term Facility), with elimination based upon achievement and maintenance of a leverage ratio of 3.75:1.00 or less;

·                  100% of the net cash proceeds of all asset sales or other dispositions of property by Regal Cinemas and its subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions (including reinvestment rights); and

·                  100% of the net cash proceeds of issuances of funded debt of Regal Cinemas and its subsidiaries, subject to exceptions for most permitted debt issuances.

The above-described mandatory prepayments are required to be applied pro rata to the remaining amortization payments under the Term Facility.  When there are no longer outstanding loans under the Term Facility, mandatory prepayments are to be applied to prepay outstanding loans under the Revolving Facility with no corresponding permanent reduction of commitments under the Revolving Facility.

The Amended Senior Credit Facility includes the following financial maintenance covenants, which are applicable only in certain circumstances where usage of the revolving credit commitments exceeds 30% of such commitments. Such financial covenants are limited to the following:

2

·                  maximum adjusted leverage ratio, determined by the ratio of (i) the sum of funded debt (net of unencumbered cash) plus the product of eight (8) times lease expense to (ii) consolidated EBITDAR (as defined in the Amended Senior Credit Facility), of 6.00 to 1.0; and

·                  maximum total leverage ratio, determined by the ratio of funded debt (net of unencumbered cash) to consolidated EBITDA, of 4.00 to 1.0.

The Amended Senior Credit Facility requires that Regal Cinemas and its subsidiaries comply with covenants relating to customary matters, including with respect to incurring indebtedness and liens, making investments and acquisitions, effecting mergers and asset sales, prepaying indebtedness, and paying dividends.  The Amended Senior Credit Facility also limits capital expenditures to an amount expenditures not to exceed 35% of consolidated EBITDA for the prior fiscal year plus a one-year carryforward for unused amounts from the prior fiscal year.  Among other things, such limitations will restrict the ability of Regal Cinemas to fund the operations of REG or any subsidiary of REG that is not a subsidiary of Regal Cinemas which guaranties the obligations under Amended Senior Credit Facility.

The Amended Senior Credit Facility includes events of default relating to customary matters, including, among other things, nonpayment of principal, interest or other amounts; violation of covenants; incorrectness of representations and warranties in any material respect; cross default and cross acceleration with respect to indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount of $25.0 million or more; bankruptcy; judgments involving liability of $25.0 million or more that are not paid; ERISA events; actual or asserted invalidity of guarantees or security documents; and change of control.

The Amended Senior Credit Facility is filed as Exhibit 4.1  to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing summary of the Amended Senior Credit Facility is qualified in its entirety by reference to such Exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
