PART I
Item 1. Business
Our Company
     Cinemark, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) are leaders in the motion picture exhibition industry in terms of both revenues and the number of screens in operation, with theatres in the United States (“U.S.”), Canada, Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Peru, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama and Colombia. The Company also managed theatres in the U.S., Brazil and Colombia during the year ended December 31, 2008.
     On August 2, 2006, Cinemark Holdings, Inc. was formed as the Delaware holding company of Cinemark, Inc. On August 7, 2006, the Cinemark, Inc. stockholders entered into a share exchange agreement pursuant to which they agreed to exchange their shares of Class A common stock for an equal number of shares of common stock of Cinemark Holdings, Inc. (“Cinemark Share Exchange”). The Cinemark Share Exchange was completed on October 5, 2006 and facilitated the acquisition of Century Theatres, Inc. (“Century Acquisition”). On October 5, 2006, Cinemark, Inc. became a wholly owned subsidiary of Cinemark Holdings, Inc.
     As of December 31, 2008, we managed our business under two operating segments — U.S. markets and international markets, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 131 “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.” See Note 22 to the consolidated financial statements.
     Our principal executive offices are at 3900 Dallas Parkway, Suite 500, Plano, Texas 75093. Our telephone number is (972) 665-1000. We maintain a corporate website at www.cinemark.com.

Description of Business
     We are a leader in the motion picture exhibition industry with 420 theatres and 4,783 screens in the U.S. and Latin America. Our circuit is the third largest in the U.S. with 293 theatres and 3,742 screens in 38 states and one Canadian province. We are the most geographically diverse circuit in Latin America with 127 theatres and 1,041 screens in 12 countries. During the year ended December 31, 2008, approximately 211.3 million patrons attended our theatres. Our modern theatre circuit features stadium seating in approximately 83% of our first-run auditoriums.
     We selectively build or acquire new theatres in markets where we can establish and maintain a leading market position. We believe our portfolio of modern theatres provides a preferred destination for moviegoers and contributes to our significant cash flows from operating activities. Our significant presence in the U.S. and Latin America has made us an important distribution channel for movie studios, particularly as they look to increase revenues generated in Latin America. Our market leadership is attributable in large part to our senior executives, who average approximately 34 years of industry experience and have successfully navigated us through multiple industry and economic cycles.
     We grew our total revenue per patron at a compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) during the last three fiscal years of 10.2%. Revenues, operating income and net loss for the year ended December 31, 2008, were $1,742.3 million, $61.2 million and $(48.9) million, respectively. At December 31, 2008 we had cash and cash equivalents of $313.7 million and long-term debt of $1,508.5 million. Approximately $797.0 million of our long-term debt accrues interest at variable rates.

Motion Picture Industry Overview
     Domestic Markets
     The U.S. motion picture exhibition industry has a track record of long-term growth, with box office revenues growing at an estimated CAGR of 5.1% from 1992 to 2007. Against this background of steady long-term growth, the exhibition industry has experienced periodic short-term increases and decreases in attendance, and consequently box office revenues. According to industry sources, in 2008, the motion picture exhibition industry experienced one of its best performances in history, with total box office almost equaling the record breaking 2007 box office. One of the films released during 2008, The Dark Knight, which grossed over $500 million in domestic box office, broke several box office records, including the single day box office record on its opening day and the single film three-day weekend record during its opening weekend. We believe box office revenues will continue to perform well in 2009 with a solid slate of films, including Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Angels & Demons, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Night at the Museum II: Escape from the Smithsonian, and Watchmen and the release of 3-D movies such as Monsters vs. Aliens, Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, Avatar, A Christmas Carol, and Disney’s next Pixar installment, Up.
     As of the date of this report, MPAA Worldwide Market Research (“MPAA”) had not yet released the 2008 box office information. The following table represents the results of a survey by MPAA published during March 2008, outlining the historical trends in U.S. box office revenues for the ten year period from 1997 to 2007:
                         
    U.S. Box        
    Office Revenues   Attendance   Average Ticket
Year   ($ in millions)   (in millions)   Price
1997
  $ 6,216       1,354     $ 4.59  
1998
  $ 6,760       1,438     $ 4.69  
1999
  $ 7,314       1,440     $ 5.08  
2000
  $ 7,468       1,383     $ 5.39

  $ 8,125       1,438     $ 5.66  
2002
  $ 9,272       1,599     $ 5.81  
2003
  $ 9,165       1,521     $ 6.03  
2004
  $ 9,215       1,484     $ 6.21

  $ 8,832       1,376     $ 6.41  
2006
  $ 9,138       1,395     $ 6.55  
2007
  $ 9,629       1,400     $ 6.88  
International Markets
     International growth also continues to be consistent. (As of the date of this report, MPAA had not yet released the 2008 box office information.) According to MPAA, international box office revenues grew steadily at a CAGR of 11.9% from 2003 to 2007 as a result of the increasing acceptance of moviegoing as a popular form of entertainment throughout the world, ticket price increases and new theatre construction.
     Growth in Latin America is expected to continue to be fueled by a combination of continued development of modern theatres, growing populations, attractive demographics (i.e., a significant teenage population), quality product from Hollywood and the emergence of a local film industry. In many Latin American countries the local film industry had been dormant because of the lack of sufficient theatres to exhibit the film product. The development of new modern multiplex theatres has revitalized the local film industry and, in Mexico, Brazil and Argentina, successful local film product often provides incremental growth opportunities.
     We believe many international markets for theatrical exhibition have historically been underserved and that certain of these markets, especially those in Latin America, will continue to experience growth as additional modern stadium-styled theatres are introduced.
Drivers of Continued Industry Success
     We believe the following market trends will drive the continued growth and strength of our industry:

3


Table of Contents

     Importance of Theatrical Success in Establishing Movie Brands and Subsequent Markets. Theatrical exhibition is the primary distribution channel for new motion picture releases. A successful theatrical release which “brands” a film is one of the major factors in determining its success in “downstream” markets, such as DVDs, network and syndicated television, video on-demand, pay-per-view television and downloading from the Internet.
     Increased Importance of International Markets for Box Office Success. International markets continue to be an increasingly important component of the overall box office revenues generated by Hollywood films, accounting for $17.1 billion, or 64% of 2007 total worldwide box office revenues according to MPAA. (As of the date of this report, MPAA had not yet released the 2008 industry information.) With continued growth of the international motion picture exhibition industry, we believe the relative contribution of markets outside North America will become even more significant.
     Stable Long-Term Attendance Trends. We believe that long-term trends in motion picture attendance in the U.S. will continue to benefit the industry. Despite historical economic and industry cycles, domestic attendance has grown at a 1.6% CAGR over the last 15 years to an estimated 1.4 billion patrons in 2007. (As of the date of this report, MPAA had not yet released the 2008 industry information.) According to Nielsen Entertainment/NRG, 77% of moviegoers stated their overall theatre experience in 2007 was time and money well spent.
     Convenient and Affordable Form of Out-Of-Home Entertainment. Moviegoing continues to be one of the most convenient and affordable forms of out-of-home entertainment, with an estimated average ticket price in the U.S. of $6.88 in 2007. (As of the date of this report, MPAA had not yet released the 2008 box office information.) Average prices in 2007 for other forms of out-of-home entertainment in the U.S., including sporting events and theme parks, range from approximately $23.50 to $65.25 per ticket according to MPAA. Movie ticket prices have risen at approximately the rate of inflation, while ticket prices for other forms of out-of-home entertainment have increased at higher rates.
     Innovation with Digital Technology. The industry has begun to convert to the use of digital projection technology, which will allow exhibitors to expand their product offerings. Digital technology will allow the presentation of 3-D content and alternative entertainment venues such as live sports programs, the opera and concert events. These additional programming alternatives may enhance the level of patronage for exhibitors.
Competitive Strengths
     We believe the following strengths allow us to compete effectively:
     Disciplined Operating Philosophy. We generated operating income and net loss of $61.2 million and $(48.9) million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2008. (Our net loss for the year ended December 31, 2008 was primarily due to $113.5 million of non-cash impairment charges.) Our solid operating performance is a result of our disciplined operating philosophy that centers on building high quality assets, while negotiating favorable theatre level economics and controlling theatre operating costs. As a result, we grew our admissions and concession revenues per patron at the highest CAGR during the last five fiscal years among the three largest motion picture exhibitors in the U.S.
     Leading Position in Our U.S. Markets. We have a leading market share in the U.S. metropolitan and suburban markets we serve. For the year ended December 31, 2008, we ranked either first or second based on box office revenues in 21 out of our top 25 U.S. markets, including the San Francisco Bay Area, Dallas, Houston and Salt Lake City.
     Strategically Located in Heavily Populated Latin American Markets. Since 1993, we have invested throughout Latin America due to the continued growth of the region. We operate 127 theatres and 1,041 screens in 12 countries, generating revenues of $385.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. We have successfully established a significant presence in major cities in the region, with theatres in thirteen of the fifteen largest metropolitan areas. With a geographically diverse circuit, we are an important distribution channel to the movie studios. The projected annual population growth for the Latin American countries in which we operate ranges from 1% to 2% for each of the next three years. We are well-positioned with our modern, large-format theatres to take advantage of these factors for further growth and diversification of our revenues.
     State-of-the-Art Theatre Circuit. We offer state-of-the-art theatres, which we believe makes our theatres a preferred destination for moviegoers in our markets. We feature stadium seating in approximately 83% of our first run auditoriums. During 2008, we continued our expansion by adding 203 new screens. We currently have commitments to build 147 additional screens over the next three years.

     Solid Balance Sheet with Significant Cash Flow from Operating Activities. We generate significant cash flow from operating activities as a result of several factors, including management’s ability to contain costs, predictable revenues and a geographically diverse, modern theatre circuit. Additionally, a strategic advantage that enhances our cash flows, is our ownership of land and buildings for 43 of our theatres. We believe our expected level of cash flow generation will provide us with the strategic and financial flexibility to pursue growth opportunities, support our debt payments and make dividend payments to our stockholders. As of December 31, 2008, we had cash of $313.7 million. Our senior debt and senior subordinated debt do not mature until 2013 and 2014, respectively.
     Experienced Management. Led by Chairman and founder Lee Roy Mitchell, Chief Executive Officer Alan Stock, President, Chief Operating Officer Timothy Warner and Chief Financial Officer Robert Copple, our management team has an average of approximately 34 years of theatre operating experience executing a focused strategy which has led to consistent operating results. This management team has successfully navigated us through many industry and economic cycles.
Our Strategy
     We believe our disciplined operating philosophy and experienced management team will enable us to continue to enhance our leading position in the motion picture exhibition industry. Key components of our strategy include:
     Establish and Maintain Leading Market Positions. We will continue to seek growth opportunities by building or acquiring modern theatres that meet our strategic, financial and demographic criteria. We will continue to focus on establishing and maintaining a leading position in the markets we serve.
     Continue to Focus on Operational Excellence. We will continue to focus on achieving operational excellence by controlling theatre operating costs while continuing to provide leading customer service. Our margins reflect our track record of operating efficiency.
     Selectively Build in Profitable, Strategic Latin American Markets. Our international expansion will continue to focus primarily on Latin America through construction of modern, state-of-the-art theatres in growing urban markets.

Theatre Operations
     As of December 31, 2008, we operated 420 theatres and 4,783 screens in 38 states, one Canadian province and 12 Latin American countries. Our theatres in the U.S. are primarily located in mid-sized U.S. markets, including suburbs of major metropolitan areas. We believe these markets are generally less competitive and generate high, stable margins. Our theatres in Latin America are primarily located in major metropolitan markets, which we believe are generally underscreened.

     We first entered Latin America operating movie theatres in Chile in 1993 and Mexico in 1994. Since then, through our focused international strategy, we have developed into the most geographically diverse theatre circuit in the region. We have balanced our risk through a diversified international portfolio, currently operating theatres in thirteen of the fifteen largest metropolitan areas in Latin America. In addition, we have achieved significant scale in Mexico and Brazil, the two largest Latin American economies, with 300 screens in Mexico and 368 screens in Brazil as of December 31, 2008.
     We believe that certain markets within Latin America continue to be underserved as penetration of movie screens per capita in Latin American markets is substantially lower than in the U.S. and European markets. We will continue to build and expand our presence in underserved international markets, with emphasis on Latin America, and fund our expansion primarily with cash flow generated in those markets. We are able to mitigate exposure to currency fluctuations by using local currencies to fund substantially all costs of our international operations, including film and facility lease expense. Our geographic diversity throughout Latin America has allowed us to maintain consistent revenue growth, notwithstanding currency and economic fluctuations that may affect any particular market. Our international revenues were approximately $385.8 million during 2008 versus $333.6 million during 2007.
Film Licensing
     In the U.S., we license films on a theatre-by-theatre and film-by-film basis from film distributors that are owned by major film production companies or from independent film distributors that distribute films for smaller production companies. For new release films, film distributors typically establish geographic zones and offer each available film to one theatre in each zone. The size of a film zone is generally determined by the population density, demographics and box office revenues potential of a particular market or region. We currently operate theatres in 242 first run film zones in the U.S. New film releases are licensed at the discretion of the film distributors. As the sole exhibitor in approximately 86% of the first run film zones in which we operate, we have maximum access to film product, which allows us to select those pictures we believe will be the most successful in our markets from those offered to us by distributors. We usually license films on an allocation basis in film zones where we face competition.
     In the international markets in which we operate, distributors do not allocate film to a single theatre in a geographic film zone, but allow competitive theatres to play the same films simultaneously. In these markets, films are still licensed on a theatre-by-theatre and film-by-film basis. Our theatre personnel focus on providing excellent customer service, and we provide a modern facility with the most up-to-date sound systems, comfortable stadium style seating and other amenities typical of modern American-style multiplexes, which we believe gives us a competitive advantage in markets where competing theatres play the same films. Of the 1,041 screens we operate in international markets, approximately 73% have no direct competition from other theatres.
     Our film rental licenses in the U.S. typically specify that rental fees are based on the applicable box office receipts and either the mutually agreed upon firm terms or a sliding scale formula, which are established prior to the opening of the film, or a mutually agreed upon settlement, which occurs at the conclusion of the film run, subject to the film licensing agreement. Under a firm terms formula, we pay the distributor a specified percentage of box office receipts, which reflects either a mutually agreed upon aggregate rate for the life of the film or rates that decline over the term of the run. Under the sliding scale formula, film rental is paid as a percentage of box office revenues using a pre-determined

matrix based upon box office performance of the film. The settlement process allows for negotiation of film rental fees upon the conclusion of the film run based upon how the film performs. Internationally, our film rental licenses are primarily based on mutually agreed upon firm terms established prior to the opening of the picture. The film rental percentages paid by our international locations are generally lower than in the U.S. markets and gradually decline over a period of several weeks.
     We operate six art theatres with 21 screens under the CineArts brand. We also regularly play art and independent films at many of our other theatres, providing a variety of film choices to our patrons. Operating under the CineArts brand and bringing art and independent films to our other brands, allows us to benefit from the growth in the art and independent market driven by the more mature patron and the increased interest in art, foreign and documentary films. High profile film festivals, such as the Sundance Film Festival, have contributed to growth and interest in this genre. Recent hits such as Slumdog Millionaire and Doubt have demonstrated the box office potential of art and independent films.
Concessions
     Concession sales are our second largest revenue source, representing approximately 31% of total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2008. Concession sales have a much higher margin than admissions sales. We have devoted considerable management effort to increase concession sales and improve operating margins. These efforts include implementation of the following strategies:
    Optimization of product mix. We offer concession products that primarily include various sizes of popcorn, soft drinks and candy. Different varieties and flavors of candy and soft drinks are offered at theatres based on preferences in that particular geographic region. Our point of sale system allows us to monitor product sales and make changes to product mix as necessary. Specially priced combos and promotions are launched on a regular basis to increase average concession purchases as well as to attract new buyers.
 
    Staff training. Employees are continually trained in “suggestive-selling” and “upselling” techniques. Consumer promotions conducted at the concession stand usually include a motivational element that rewards theatre staff for exceptional combo sales during the period.
 
    Theatre design. Our theatres are designed to optimize efficiencies at the concession stands, which include multiple service stations to facilitate serving more customers more quickly. We strategically place large concession stands within theatres to heighten visibility, reduce the length of concession lines, and improve traffic flow around the concession stands. Some of our concession areas are designed as self-service stations which allow customers to select their own refreshments and proceed to the cash register when they are ready. This design presents efficient service, enhanced choice and superior visibility of concession items. Concession designs in many of our new theatres have incorporated the benefits experienced with the self-service model.
 
    Cost control. We negotiate prices for concession supplies directly with concession vendors and manufacturers to obtain bulk rates. Concession supplies are distributed through a national distribution network. The concession distributor supplies and distributes inventory to the theatres, who place orders directly with the vendors to replenish stock.
Participation in National CineMedia
     In March 2005, Regal Entertainment, Inc., (“Regal”), and AMC Entertainment, Inc., (“AMC”), formed National CineMedia, LLC, (“NCM”), and on July 15, 2005, we joined NCM, as one of the founding members. NCM operates an in-theatre digital network in the U.S. The digital network consists of projectors used to display advertising and other non-film events. NCM’s primary activities that impact us include:
    advertising through its branded “First Look” pre-feature entertainment program, and lobby promotions and displays,
 
    live and pre-recorded networked and single-site meetings and events,
 
    live and pre-recorded concerts, sporting events and other non-film entertainment programming.

     We believe that the reach, scope and digital delivery capability of NCM’s network provides an effective platform for national, regional and local advertisers to reach an engaged audience. We receive a monthly theatre access fee for participation in the NCM network. In addition, we are entitled to receive mandatory quarterly distributions of excess cash from NCM. We currently have an approximate 14.1% interest in NCM. See Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements.
     In our international markets, we generally outsource our screen advertising to local companies who have established relationships with local advertisers that provide similar benefits as NCM.
Participation in Digital Cinema Implementation Partners
     On February 12, 2007, we, AMC and Regal, entered into a joint venture known as Digital Cinema Implementation Partners LLC, (“DCIP”), to facilitate the implementation of digital cinema in our theatres and to establish agreements with major motion picture studios for the financing of digital cinema. Future digital cinema developments will be managed by DCIP, subject to certain approvals by us, AMC and Regal.
     As of the date of this report, DCIP had signed long-term agreements with five studios for the deployment of digital projection systems in movie theatres in North America. These agreements are the first of a number of agreements that DCIP intends to enter into with all of the major studios and independent distribution companies to ensure the widespread roll-out of digital technology. In accordance with these agreements, the digital projection systems deployed by DCIP will comply with the technology and security specifications developed by the Digital Cinema Initiatives studio consortium. DCIP is currently working with lenders and equity sources to finance the planned deployment of digital systems.
Marketing
     In the U.S., we rely on newspaper display advertisements, paid for by film distributors, newspaper directory film schedules, generally paid for by us, and Internet advertising, which has emerged as the primary media source to inform patrons of film titles and showtimes. Radio and television advertising spots, generally paid for by film distributors, are used to promote certain motion pictures and special events. We also exhibit previews of coming attractions and films presently playing on the other screens in our theatres or markets. We offer patrons access to movie times, the ability to buy and print their tickets at home and purchase gift cards and other advanced sale-type certificates at our website www.cinemark.com. The Internet is becoming a popular way to view movie previews. We use monthly web contests with film distributor partners to drive traffic to our website and to ensure that customers visit often. In addition, we work on a regular basis with all of the film distributors to promote their films with local, regional and national programs that are exclusive to our theatres. These programs may involve customer contests, cross-promotions with third parties, media on-air tie-ins and other means to increase traffic to a particular film showing at one of our theatres.
     Internationally, we exhibit upcoming and current film previews on screen, we implement co-promotions with film distributors and promote and advertise our new locations through various forms of media and events. We partner with large multi-national corporations in the large metropolitan areas in which we have theatres, to promote our brand, our image and to increase attendance levels at our theatres. Our customers are encouraged to register on our website to receive weekly information by email for showtime information, invitations to special screenings, sponsored events and promotional information. In addition, our customers can request to receive showtime information on their cell phones. We also have loyalty programs in certain of our international markets that allow customers to pay a nominal fee for a membership card that provides them with certain admissions and concession discounts.
     Our marketing departments also focus on maximizing ancillary revenue, which includes the sale of our gift cards and our SuperSaver discount tickets. We market these programs to such business representatives as realtors, human resource managers, incentive program managers and hospital and pharmaceutical personnel. Gift cards can be purchased at our theatres or online through our website. SuperSavers are also sold online at our website or over the phone, fax or email by our local corporate offices and are also available at certain retailers in the U.S.
Online Sales
     Our patrons may purchase advance tickets for all of our domestic screens and approximately one third of our international screens by accessing our corporate website at www.cinemark.com. Advance tickets may also be purchased for our domestic screens at www.fandango.com. Our Internet initiatives help improve customer satisfaction, allowing

patrons who purchase tickets over the Internet to often bypass lines at the box office by printing their tickets at home or picking up their tickets at kiosks in the theatre lobby.
Point of Sale Systems
     We have developed our own proprietary point of sale system to enhance our ability to maximize revenues, control costs and efficiently manage operations. The system is currently installed in all of our U.S. theatres and our one Canadian theatre. The point of sale system provides corporate management with real-time admissions and concession revenues reports that allow us to make timely changes to movie schedules, including extending film runs, increasing the number of screens on which successful movies are being played, or substituting films when gross receipts do not meet expectations. Real-time seating and box office information is available to box office personnel, preventing overselling of a particular film and providing faster and more accurate responses to customer inquiries regarding showtimes and available seating. The system tracks concession sales, provides in-theatre inventory reports for efficient inventory management and control, offers numerous ticket pricing options, integrates Internet ticket sales and processes credit card transactions. Barcode scanners, pole displays, touch screens, credit card readers and other equipment are integrated with the system to enhance its functions. In our international locations, we currently use other point of sale systems that have either been developed internally or by third parties, which have been certified as compliant with applicable governmental regulations.
Competition
     We are one of the leading motion picture exhibitors in terms of both revenues and the number of screens in operation. We compete against local, regional, national and international exhibitors with respect to attracting patrons, licensing films and developing new theatre sites.
     We are the sole exhibitor in approximately 86% of the 242 first run film zones in which our first run U.S. theatres operate. In film zones where there is no direct competition from other theatres, we select those films we believe will be the most successful from among those offered to us by film distributors. Where there is competition, we usually license films based on an allocation process. Of the 1,041 screens we operate outside of the U.S., approximately 73% of those screens have no direct competition from other theatres. In areas where we face direct competition, our success in attracting patrons depends on location, accessibility and capacity of an exhibitor’s theatre, theatre comfort, quality of projection and sound equipment, film showtime availability, level of customer service, and ticket prices. The competition for film licensing in the U.S. is dependent upon factors such as the location, condition and capacity of an exhibitor’s theatre, revenue potential and licensing terms.
     We compete for new theatre sites with other movie theatre exhibitors as well as other entertainment venues, which is dependent upon factors such as committed investment and resources, theatre design and capacity, revenue and patron potential, and financial stability.
     We also face competition from a number of other motion picture exhibition delivery systems, such as DVDs, network and syndicated television, video on-demand, pay-per-view television and downloading from the Internet. We also face competition from other forms of entertainment competing for the public’s leisure time and disposable income, such as concerts, theme parks and sporting events.
Corporate Operations
     Our corporate headquarters is located in Plano, Texas. Personnel at our corporate headquarters provide oversight for our domestic and international theatres. Domestic personnel at our corporate headquarters include concessions, theatre operations support, film licensing, human resources, legal, finance and accounting, operational audit, theatre maintenance and construction, Internet and information systems support, real estate and marketing. Our U.S. operations are divided into sixteen regions, primarily organized geographically, each of which is headed by a region leader.
     International personnel at our corporate headquarters include our President of Cinemark International, L.L.C. and department heads in charge of film licensing, concessions, theatre operations, theatre construction, real estate, legal, operational audit, information systems and accounting. We have a chief financial officer in both Brazil and Mexico, which are our two largest international markets. We have eight regional offices in Latin America responsible for the local management of theatres in twelve individual countries. Each regional office is headed by a general manager and includes personnel in film licensing, marketing, human resources, information systems, operations and accounting. The regional offices are staffed with experienced personnel from the region to mitigate cultural and operational barriers.

Employees
     We have approximately 12,900 employees in the U.S., approximately 10% of whom are full time employees and 90% of whom are part time employees. We have approximately 5,400 employees in our international markets, approximately 65% of whom are full time employees and approximately 35% of whom are part time employees. Some of our U.S. employees are represented by unions under collective bargaining agreements, and some of our international locations are subject to union regulations. We regard our relations with our employees to be satisfactory.
Regulations
     The distribution of motion pictures is largely regulated by federal and state antitrust laws and has been the subject of numerous antitrust cases. The manner in which we can license films from certain major film distributors is subject to consent decrees resulting from these cases. Consent decrees bind certain major film distributors and require the films of such distributors to be offered and licensed to exhibitors, including us, on a theatre-by-theatre and film-by-film basis. Consequently, exhibitors cannot assure themselves a supply of films by entering long-term arrangements with major distributors, but must negotiate for licenses on a theatre-by-theatre and film-by-film basis.
     We are subject to various general regulations applicable to our operations including the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, or the ADA. We develop new theatres to be accessible to the disabled and we believe we are in substantial compliance with current regulations relating to accommodating the disabled. Although we believe that our theatres comply with the ADA, we have been a party to lawsuits which claim that our handicapped seating arrangements do not comply with the ADA or that we are required to provide captioning for patrons who are deaf or are severely hearing impaired.
     Our theatre operations are also subject to federal, state and local laws governing such matters as wages, working conditions, citizenship, health and sanitation requirements and licensing.
Financial Information About Geographic Areas
     We have operations in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Peru, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama and Colombia, which are reflected in the consolidated financial statements. See Note 22 to the consolidated financial statements for segment information and financial information by geographic area.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
     Our business depends on film production and performance.
     Our business depends on both the availability of suitable films for exhibition in our theatres and the success of those films in our markets. Poor performance of films, the disruption in the production of films due to events such as a strike by directors, writers or actors, a reduction in financing options for the film distributors, or a reduction in the marketing efforts of the film distributors to promote their films could have an adverse effect on our business by resulting in fewer patrons and reduced revenues.
     A deterioration in relationships with film distributors could adversely affect our ability to obtain commercially successful films.
     We rely on the film distributors to supply the films shown in our theatres. The film distribution business is highly concentrated, with six major film distributors accounting for approximately 81% of U.S. box office revenues and 47 of the top 50 grossing films during 2008. Numerous antitrust cases and consent decrees resulting from these anti-trust cases impact the distribution of films. The consent decrees bind certain major film distributors to license films to exhibitors on a theatre-by-theatre and film-by-film basis. Consequently, we cannot guarantee a supply of films by entering into long-term arrangements with major distributors. We are therefore required to negotiate licenses for each film and for each theatre. A deterioration in our relationship with any of the six major film distributors could adversely affect our ability to obtain commercially successful films and to negotiate favorable licensing terms for such films, both of which could adversely affect our business and operating results.
     We face intense competition for patrons and films which may adversely affect our business.
     The motion picture industry is highly competitive. We compete against local, regional, national and international exhibitors. We compete for both patrons and licensing of films. The competition for patrons is dependent upon such factors as the availability of popular films, the location and number of theatres and screens in a market, the comfort and quality of the theatres, levels of customer service, and pricing. The principal competitive factors with respect to film licensing include licensing terms, number of seats and screens available for a particular picture, revenue potential and the location and condition of an exhibitor’s theatres. If we are unable to attract patrons or to license successful films, our business may be adversely affected.
     An increase in the use of alternative or “downstream” film distribution channels and other competing forms of entertainment may reduce movie theatre attendance and limit ticket price growth.
     We face competition for patrons from a number of alternative film distribution channels, such as DVDs, network and syndicated television, video on-demand, pay-per-view television and downloading from the Internet. We also compete with other forms of entertainment such as concerts, amusement parks and sporting events, for our patrons’ leisure time and disposable income. A significant increase in popularity of these alternative film distribution channels and competing forms of entertainment could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
     Our results of operations may be impacted by shrinking video release windows.
     Over the last decade, the average video release window, which represents the time that elapses from the date of a film’s theatrical release to the date a film is available on DVD, an important downstream market, has decreased from approximately six months to approximately four months. We cannot assure you that this release window, which is determined by the film studios, will not shrink further or be eliminated altogether, which could have an adverse impact on our business and results of operations.
     The oversupply of screens in the motion picture exhibition industry may adversely affect the performance of some of our theatres.
     During the period between 1996 and 2000, theatre exhibitors focused on the development of large multiplexes. The strategy of aggressively building multiplexes was adopted throughout the industry during that time and resulted in an oversupply of screens in the North American exhibition industry and negatively impacted many older multiplex theatres, leading to financial difficulty for some of the exhibitors. According to MPAA, screen counts have increased each year

12


Table of Contents

since 2003. If exhibitors continue to build theatres and demand for such theatres does not grow at the same rate, the performance of some of our theatres could be adversely affected.
     We have substantial long-term lease and debt obligations, which may restrict our ability to fund current and future operations and that restrict our ability to enter into certain transactions.
     We have significant long-term debt service obligations and long-term lease obligations. As of December 31, 2008, we had $1,516.6 million in long-term debt obligations, $123.7 million in capital lease obligations and $1,839.1 million in long-term operating lease obligations. We incurred $116.1 million of interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2008. We incurred $225.6 million of rent expense for the year ended December 31, 2008 under operating leases (with terms, excluding renewal options, ranging from one to 28 years). Our substantial lease and debt obligations pose risk to you by:
    making it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations;
 
    requiring us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow to payments on our lease and debt obligations, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other corporate requirements and to pay dividends;
 
    impeding our ability to obtain additional financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and general corporate purposes;
 
    subjecting us to the risk of increased sensitivity to interest rate increases on our variable rate debt, including our borrowings under our senior secured credit facility; and
 
    making us more vulnerable to a downturn in our business and competitive pressures and limiting our flexibility to plan for, or react to, changes in our industry or the economy.
     Our ability to make scheduled payments of principal and interest with respect to our indebtedness and service our lease obligations will depend on our ability to generate cash flow from our operations. To a certain extent, our ability to generate cash flow is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control. We cannot assure you that we will continue to generate cash flow at current levels. If we fail to make any required payment under the agreements governing our indebtedness or fail to comply with the financial and operating covenants contained in them, we would be in default and our lenders would have the ability to require that we immediately repay our outstanding indebtedness. Any such defaults could materially impair our financial condition and liquidity. We cannot assure you that we would be able to refinance our outstanding indebtedness if debt holders require repayments as a result of a default. In addition, we may need to refinance all or a portion of our outstanding indebtedness prior to its scheduled maturity; however, we may not be able to refinance all or any portion of our indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms or at all. If we fail to make any required payment under our leases, we would be in default and our landlords would have the ability to terminate our leases and re-enter the premises. The involuntary termination of a substantial number of our leases could have a material adverse impact on our business and results of operations.
     General political, social and economic conditions can adversely affect our attendance.
     Our results of operations are dependent on general political, social and economic conditions, and the impact of such conditions on our theatre operating costs and on the willingness of consumers to spend money at movie theatres. If consumers’ discretionary income declines as a result of an economic downturn, our operations could be adversely affected. If theatre operating costs, such as utility costs, increase due to political or economic changes, our results of operations could be adversely affected. Political events, such as terrorist attacks, could cause people to avoid our theatres or other public places where large crowds are in attendance.
     Our foreign operations are subject to adverse regulations, economic instability and currency exchange risk.
     We have 127 theatres with 1,041 screens in twelve countries in Latin America. Brazil and Mexico represented approximately 10.7% and 4.5% of our consolidated 2008 revenues, respectively. Governmental regulation of the motion picture industry in foreign markets differs from that in the United States. Changes in regulations affecting prices, quota systems requiring the exhibition of locally-produced films and restrictions on ownership of property may adversely affect our international operations in foreign markets. Our international operations are subject to certain political, economic and

13


Table of Contents

other uncertainties not encountered by our domestic operations, including risks of severe economic downturns and high inflation. We also face risks of currency fluctuations, hard currency shortages and controls of foreign currency exchange and transfers abroad, all of which could have an adverse effect on the results of our international operations.
     We may not be able to generate additional revenues or continue to realize value from our investment in NCM.
     We joined Regal and AMC as founding members of NCM in 2005 and currently have an approximate 14.1% interest in NCM. We receive a monthly theatre access fee under our Exhibitor Services Agreement with NCM and we are entitled to receive mandatory quarterly distributions of excess cash from NCM. During the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, the Company received approximately $5.7 million and $1.8 million in other revenues from NCM, respectively and $11.5 million and $18.8 million in cash distributions from NCM, respectively. Cinema advertising is a small component of the U.S. advertising market and therefore, NCM competes with larger, established and well known media platforms such as broadcast radio and television, cable and satellite television, outdoor advertising and Internet portals. NCM also competes with other cinema advertising companies and with hotels, conference centers, arenas, restaurants and convention facilities for its non-film related events to be shown or held in our auditoriums. In-theatre advertising may not continue to attract advertisers or NCM’s in-theatre advertising format may not continue to be received favorably by the theatre-going public. If NCM is unable to continue to generate expected sales of advertising, its results of operations may be adversely affected and our investment in and distributions and revenues from NCM may be adversely impacted.
     We are subject to uncertainties related to digital cinema, including potentially high costs of re-equipping theatres with projectors to show digital movies.
     Digital cinema is still in an early conversion stage in our industry. We, along with some of our competitors, have commenced a roll-out of digital equipment for exhibiting feature films. However, significant obstacles exist that impact such a roll-out plan including the cost of digital projectors, the substantial investment in re-equipping theatres and determining who will be responsible for such costs. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain financing arrangements to fund our portion of the digital cinema roll-out nor that such financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all.
     We are subject to uncertainties relating to future expansion plans, including our ability to identify suitable acquisition candidates or site locations.
     We have greatly expanded our operations over the last decade through targeted worldwide theatre development and acquisitions. We will continue to pursue a strategy of expansion that will involve the development of new theatres and may involve acquisitions of existing theatres and theatre circuits both in the U.S. and internationally. There is significant competition for new site locations and for existing theatre and theatre circuit acquisition opportunities. As a result of such competition, we may not be able to acquire attractive site locations, existing theatres or theatre circuits on terms we consider acceptable. We cannot assure you that our expansion strategy will result in improvements to our business, financial condition, profitability, or cash flows. Further, our expansion programs may require financing above our existing borrowing capacity and internally generated funds. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain such financing nor that such financing will be available to us on acceptable terms.
     If we do not comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and a consent order we entered into with the Department of Justice, we could be subject to further litigation.
     Our theatres must comply with Title III of the ADA and analogous state and local laws. Compliance with the ADA requires among other things that public facilities “reasonably accommodate” individuals with disabilities and that new construction or alterations made to “commercial facilities” conform to accessibility guidelines unless “structurally impracticable” for new construction or technically infeasible for alterations. In March 1999, the Department of Justice, or DOJ, filed suit against us in Ohio alleging certain violations of the ADA relating to wheelchair seating arrangements in certain of our stadium-style theatres and seeking remedial action. We and the DOJ have resolved this lawsuit and a consent order was entered by the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, Eastern Division, on November 15, 2004. Under the consent order, we are required to make modifications to wheelchair seating locations in fourteen stadium-style movie theatres and spacing and companion seating modifications in 67 auditoriums at other stadium-styled movie theatres. These modifications must be completed by November 2009. We are currently in compliance with the consent order. Upon completion of these modifications, these theatres will comply with wheelchair seating requirements, and no further modifications will be required to our other stadium-style movie theatres in the United States existing on the date of the consent order. In addition, under the consent order, the DOJ approved the seating plans for nine stadium-styled

14


Table of Contents

movie theatres then under construction and also created a safe harbor framework for us to construct all of our future stadium-style movie theatres. The DOJ has stipulated that all theatres built in compliance with the consent order will comply with the wheelchair seating requirements of the ADA. If we fail to comply with the ADA, remedies could include imposition of injunctive relief, fines, awards for damages to private litigants and additional capital expenditures to remedy non-compliance. Imposition of significant fines, damage awards or capital expenditures to cure non-compliance could adversely affect our business and operating results.
     We depend on key personnel for our current and future performance.
     Our current and future performance depends to a significant degree upon the continued contributions of our senior management team and other key personnel. The loss or unavailability to us of any member of our senior management team or a key employee could significantly harm us. We cannot assure you that we would be able to locate or employ qualified replacements for senior management or key employees on acceptable terms.
     We are subject to impairment losses due to potential declines in the fair value of our assets.
     We review long-lived assets for impairment indicators on a quarterly basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. We assess many factors when determining whether to impair individual theatre assets, including actual theatre level cash flows, future years budgeted theatre level cash flows, theatre property and equipment carrying values, amortizing intangible assets carrying values, the age of a recently built theatre, competitive theatres in the marketplace, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, the impact of recent ticket price changes, available lease renewal options and other factors considered relevant in our assessment of impairment of individual theatre assets. Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment on an individual theatre basis, which we believe is the lowest applicable level for which there are identifiable cash flows. The impairment evaluation is based on the estimated undiscounted cash flows from continuing use through the remainder of the theatre’s useful life. The remainder of the useful life correlates with the available remaining lease period, which includes the probability of renewal periods, for leased properties and a period of twenty years for fee owned properties. If the estimated undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover a long-lived asset’s carrying value, we then compare the carrying value of the asset group (theatre) with its estimated fair value. Fair value is determined based on a multiple of cash flows, which was eight times for the evaluations performed during 2006, 2007 and the first, second and third quarters of 2008 and six and a half times for the evaluation performed during the fourth quarter of 2008. When estimated fair value is determined to be lower than the carrying value of the asset group (theatre), the asset group (theatre) is written down to its estimated fair value. Significant judgment is involved in estimating cash flows and fair value. Management’s estimates are based on historical and projected operating performance as well as recent market transactions.
     We evaluate goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level at least annually during the fourth quarter or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill might exceed its estimated fair value. Goodwill impairment is evaluated using a two-step approach requiring us to compute the fair value of a reporting unit and compare it with its carrying value. If the carrying value of the theatre exceeds its fair value, a second step would be performed to measure the potential goodwill impairment. Fair values are determined based on a multiple of cash flows, which was eight times for the evaluations performed during 2006 and 2007 and six and a half times for the evaluation performed during 2008. Significant judgment is involved in estimating cash flows and fair value. Management’s estimates are based on historical and projected operating performance as well as recent market transactions. Prior to January 1, 2008, we considered our theatres reporting units for purposes of evaluating goodwill for impairment. Recent changes in the organization, including changes in the structure of the executive management team, the initial public offering of Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s common stock, the resulting changes in the level at which the management team evaluates the business on a regular basis, and the Century Acquisition that increased the size of our theatre base by approximately 25%, led management to conclude that its U.S. regions and international countries are now more reflective of how we manage and operate our business. Accordingly, the U.S. regions and international countries represent the appropriate reporting units for purposes of evaluating goodwill for impairment. Consequently, effective January 1, 2008, management changed the reporting unit to sixteen regions in the U.S. and each of eight countries internationally (Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama are considered one reporting unit) from approximately four hundred theatres. The goodwill impairment test performed during December 2007 that resulted in the recording of impairment charges during the year ended December 31, 2007 reflected the final calculation utilizing theatres as reporting units.

15


Table of Contents

     Tradename intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually during the fourth quarter or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. We estimate the fair value of our tradenames by applying an estimated market royalty rate that could be charged for the use of our tradename to forecasted future revenues, with an adjustment for the present value of such royalties. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying value, the tradename intangible asset is written down to the estimated fair value.
     We recorded asset impairment charges, including goodwill impairment charges, of $28.5 million, $86.6 million and $113.5 for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively. We cannot assure you that additional impairment charges will not be required in the future, and such charges may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and Notes 10 and 11 to the consolidated financial statements.
     Our results of operations vary from period to period based upon the quantity and quality of the motion pictures that we show in our theatres.
     Our results of operations vary from period to period based upon the quantity and quality of the motion pictures that we show in our theatres. The major film distributors generally release the films they anticipate will be most successful during the summer and holiday seasons. Consequently, we typically generate higher revenues during these periods. Due to the dependency on the success of films released from one period to the next, results of operations for one period may not be indicative of the results for the following period or the same period in the following year.
     The interests of Madison Dearborn Partners (“MDP”) may not be aligned with yours.
     We are controlled by an affiliate of MDP. MDP beneficially owns approximately 47% of our common stock and under a director nomination agreement, are entitled to designate nominees for five members of our board of directors. Accordingly, MDP has influence and effectively controls our corporate and management policies and determines, without the consent of our other stockholders, the outcome of any corporate transaction or other matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including potential mergers or acquisitions, asset sales and other significant corporate transactions. MDP could take other actions that might be desirable to MDP but not to other stockholders.
     Provisions in our corporate documents and certain agreements, as well as Delaware law, may hinder a change of control.
     Provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as well as provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law, could discourage unsolicited proposals to acquire us, even though such proposals may be beneficial to you. These provisions include:
    authorization of our board of directors to issue shares of preferred stock without stockholder approval;
 
    a board of directors classified into three classes of directors with the directors of each class, subject to shorter initial terms for some directors, having staggered, three-year terms;
 
    provisions regulating the ability of our stockholders to nominate directors for election or to bring matters for action at annual meetings of our stockholders; and
 
    provisions of Delaware law that restrict many business combinations and provide that directors serving on classified boards of directors, such as ours, may be removed only for cause.
     Certain provisions of the 9 3/4% senior discount notes indenture and the senior secured credit facility may have the effect of delaying or preventing future transactions involving a “change of control.” A “change of control” would require us to make an offer to the holders of our 9 3/4% senior discount notes to repurchase all of the outstanding notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding plus accrued unpaid interest to the date of the purchase. A “change of control” would also be an event of default under our senior secured credit facility.
     The Impairment or Insolvency of Other Financial Institutions Could Adversely Affect Us.

Table of Contents

     We have exposure to different counterparties with regard to our interest rate swap agreements. These transactions expose us to credit risk in the event of default of our counterparties to such agreements. We also have exposure to financial institutions used as depositories of our corporate cash balances. If our counterparties and financial institutions become impaired or insolvent, this could have a material impact on our results of operations or impair our ability to access our cash.
Item 2. Properties
     United States
     As of December 31, 2008, we operated 250 theatres, with 3,135 screens, pursuant to leases and own the land and building for 43 theatres, with 607 screens, in the U.S. During 2008, we acquired two theatres with 28 screens and built ten new theatres with 128 screens. Our leases are generally entered into on a long-term basis with terms, including renewal options, generally ranging from 20 to 45 years. As of December 31, 2008, approximately 8% of our theatre leases in the U.S., covering 21 theatres with 167 screens, have remaining terms, including optional renewal periods, of less than five years. Approximately 12% of our theatre leases in the U.S., covering 30 theatres with 229 screens, have remaining terms, including optional renewal periods, of between six and 15 years and approximately 80% of our theatre leases in the U.S., covering 199 theatres with 2,739 screens, have remaining terms, including optional renewal periods, of more than 15 years. The leases generally provide for a fixed monthly minimum rent payment, with certain leases also subject to additional percentage rent if a target annual revenue level is achieved. We lease an office building in Plano, Texas for our corporate office.
     International
     As of December 31, 2008, internationally, we operated 127 theatres, with 1,041 screens, all of which are leased pursuant to ground or building leases. In 2008, we acquired two theatres with 16 screens and built five new theatres with 31 screens in Latin America. Our international leases are generally entered into on a long term basis with terms generally ranging from 10 to 20 years. The leases generally provide for contingent rental based upon operating results (some of which are subject to an annual minimum). Generally, these leases include renewal options for various periods at stipulated rates. Five international theatres with 40 screens have a remaining term, including optional renewal periods, of less than five years. Approximately 27% of our international theatre leases, covering 34 theatres and 290 screens, have remaining terms, including optional renewal periods, of between six and 15 years and approximately 69% of our international theatre leases, covering 88 theatres and 711 screens, have remaining terms, including optional renewal periods, of more than 15 years.
     See Note 21 to the consolidated financial statements for information regarding our domestic and international lease commitments. We periodically review the profitability of each of our theatres, particularly those whose lease terms are nearing expiration, to determine whether to continue its operations.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
     We resolved a lawsuit filed by the DOJ in March 1999 which alleged certain violations of the ADA relating to wheelchair seating arrangements in certain of our stadium-style theatres. We and the DOJ agreed to a consent order which was entered by the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, Eastern Division, on November 15, 2004. Under the consent order, we are required to make modifications to wheelchair seating locations in fourteen stadium-style movie theatres and spacing and companion seating modifications in 67 auditoriums at other stadium-styled movie theatres. These modifications must be completed by November 2009. We are currently in compliance with the consent order. Upon completion of these modifications, these theatres will comply with wheelchair seating requirements, and no further modifications will be required to our other stadium-style movie theatres in the United States existing on the date of the consent order. In addition, under the consent order, the DOJ approved the seating plans for nine stadium-styled movie theatres then under construction and also created a safe harbor framework for us to construct all of our future stadium-style movie theatres. The DOJ has stipulated that all theatres built in compliance with the consent order will comply with the wheelchair seating requirements of the ADA. We do not believe that our requirements under the consent order will materially affect our business or financial condition.
     From time to time, we are involved in other various legal proceedings arising from the ordinary course of our business operations, such as personal injury claims, employment matters, landlord-tenant disputes and contractual

disputes, some of which are covered by insurance. We believe our potential liability, with respect to proceedings currently pending, is not material, individually or in the aggregate, to our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
PART II
Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters
Market Information and Holder
     There is no established public trading market for our common stock. As of December 31, 2008, we had 27,896,316 shares of Class A common stock outstanding, all of which were held by Cinemark Holdings, Inc.
Dividends
     We have never declared or paid any dividends on our common stock. Our ability to pay dividends is limited by the terms of our indentures and Cinemark USA, Inc’s senior secured credit facility, which restrict our ability to pay dividends and the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to pay dividends. Under our debt instruments, we may pay a cash dividend up to a specified amount, provided we have satisfied certain financial covenants in, and are not in default under, our debt instruments. Furthermore, certain of our foreign subsidiaries currently have a deficit in retained earnings which prevents them from declaring and paying dividends from those subsidiaries. The declaration of future dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon many factors, including our results of operations, financial condition, earnings, capital requirements, limitations in our debt agreements and legal requirements.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
     The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes included in this report.
Overview
     On August 2, 2006, Cinemark Holdings, Inc. was formed as the Delaware holding company of Cinemark, Inc. On August 7, 2006, the Cinemark, Inc. stockholders entered into a share exchange agreement pursuant to which they agreed to exchange their shares of Class A common stock for an equal number of shares of common stock of Cinemark Holdings, Inc. (“Cinemark Share Exchange”). The Cinemark Share Exchange was completed on October 5, 2006 and facilitated the acquisition of Century Theatres, Inc. (“Century Acquisition”). On October 5, 2006, Cinemark, Inc. became a wholly owned subsidiary of Cinemark Holdings, Inc. Due to a change in reporting entity that occurred as a result of the Cinemark Share Exchange, Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s accounting basis has been pushed down to us effective on the date of the Cinemark Share Exchange, October 5, 2006. The following presents results of operations for the periods preceding the Cinemark Share Exchange as Predecessor and the periods subsequent to the Cinemark Share Exchange as Successor. See Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements.
     As of December 31, 2008, we managed our business under two operating segments — U.S. markets and international markets, in accordance with SFAS No. 131 “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.” See Note 22 to the consolidated financial statements.

  Consolidated. The increase in admissions revenues of $39.5 million was attributable to a 4.3% increase in average ticket price from $5.11 for 2007 to $5.33 for 2008, partially offset by a 0.7% decline in attendance. The increase in concession revenues of $18.3 million was attributable to a 4.1% increase in concession revenues per patron from $2.43 for 2007 to $2.53 for 2008, partially offset by the decline in attendance. The increases in average ticket price and concession revenues per patron were due to price increases and favorable exchange rates during most of the year in certain countries in which we operate. The 2.2% increase in other revenues was primarily attributable to increased screen advertising and other ancillary revenues in certain of our international locations and the favorable impact of exchange rates during most of the year in certain countries in which we operate.
  U.S. The increase in admissions revenues of $10.0 million was attributable to a 3.8% increase in average ticket price from $5.79 for 2007 to $6.01 for 2008, partially offset by a 2.5% decrease in attendance. The increase in concession revenues of $2.1 million was attributable to a 2.9% increase in concession revenues per patron from $2.80 for 2007 to $2.88 for 2008, partially offset by the decline in attendance. The increases in average ticket price and concession revenues per patron were due to price increases. The 10.3% decrease in other revenues was primarily attributable to reduced screen advertising revenues earned under the exhibitor services agreement with NCM. See Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements.
  International. The increase in admissions revenues of $29.5 million was attributable to a 9.6% increase in average ticket price from $3.42 for 2007 to $3.75 for 2008 and a 3.9% increase in attendance. The increase in concession revenues of $16.2 million was attributable to a 13.2% increase in concession revenues per patron from $1.51 for 2007 to $1.71 for 2008 and the increase in attendance. The increases in average ticket price and concession revenues per patron were due to price increases and favorable exchange rates during most of the year in certain countries in which we operate. The 19.3% increase in other revenues was primarily due to increased screen advertising and other ancillary revenues and the favorable impact of exchange rates during most of the year in certain countries in which we operate.

  Consolidated. Film rentals and advertising costs were $612.2 million, or 54.3% of admissions revenues, for 2008 compared to $589.7 million, or 54.2% of admissions revenues, for 2007. The increase in film rentals and advertising costs for 2008 of $22.5 million was primarily due to a $39.5 million increase in admissions revenues. Concession supplies expense was $86.6 million, or 16.2% of concession revenues, for 2008 compared to $81.1 million, or 15.7% of concession revenues, for 2007. The increase in concession supplies expense of $5.5 million was primarily due to an $18.3 million increase in concession revenues and an increase in the concession supplies rate. The increased rate was primarily due to the relative increase in concession revenues from our international operations and increases in product costs from some of our international concession suppliers.
 
    Salaries and wages increased to $181.0 million for 2008 from $173.3 million for 2007, facility lease expense increased to $225.6 million for 2008 from $212.7 million for 2007 and utilities and other costs increased to $205.8 million for 2008 from $191.3 million for 2007, all of which increased primarily due to increased revenues, new theatre openings and the impact of exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate.
 
  U.S. Film rentals and advertising costs were $494.6 million, or 55.6% of admissions revenues, for 2008 compared to $485.2 million, or 55.2% of admissions revenues, for 2007. The increase in film rentals and advertising costs for 2008 of $9.4 million was primarily due to the increase in admissions revenues and higher film rentals and advertising rates. Concession supplies expense was $58.5 million, or 13.7% of concession revenues, for 2008 compared to $57.8 million, or 13.6% of concession revenues, for 2007.

  International. Film rentals and advertising costs were $117.6 million, or 49.4% of admissions revenues, for 2008 compared to $104.5 million, or 50.1% of admissions revenues, for 2007. The increase in film rentals and advertising costs of $13.1 million was due to a $29.5 million increase in admissions revenues, partially offset by a decrease in our film rental and advertising rate. Concession supplies expense was $28.1 million, or 25.9% of concession revenues, for 2008 compared to $23.3 million, or 25.3% of concession revenues, for 2007. The increase in concession supplies expense of $4.8 million was primarily due to the $16.2 million increase in concession revenues and the increased rate due to increases in product costs from some of our concession suppliers.
 
    Salaries and wages increased to $31.5 million for 2008 from $26.6 million for 2007, facility lease expense increased to $58.8 million for 2008 from $51.0 million for 2007 and utilities and other costs increased to $54.0 million for 2008 from $42.3 million for 2007, all of which increased primarily due to increased revenues, new theatre openings and the impact of exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate.

Table of Contents

     General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased to $89.8 million for 2008 from $78.9 million for 2007. The increase was primarily due to increased incentive compensation expense of $4.4 million, increased share based award compensation expense of $1.8 million, increased service charges of $1.7 million related to increased credit card activity, increased professional fees of $0.5 million, including audit fees related to Sarbanes-Oxley (“SOX”) compliance, and increased legal fees of $2.2 million.
     Termination of Profit Participation Agreement. Upon consummation of Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s initial public offering on April 24, 2007, we exercised our option to terminate the amended and restated profit participation agreement with our CEO Alan Stock and purchased Mr. Stock’s profit interest in two theatres during May 2007 for $6.9 million pursuant to the terms of the amended and restated profit participation agreement. In addition, we incurred $0.1 million of payroll taxes related to the termination. See Note 23 to our consolidated financial statements.
     Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense, including amortization of favorable leases, was $158.0 million for 2008 compared to $151.7 million for 2007 primarily due to new theatre openings.
     Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. We recorded asset impairment charges on assets held and used of $113.5 million for 2008 compared to $86.6 million for 2007. Impairment charges for 2008 consisted of $34.6 million of theatre properties, $78.6 million of goodwill associated with theatre properties, and $0.3 million of intangible assets associated with theatre properties. Impairment charges for 2007 consisted of $14.2 million of theatre properties, $67.7 million of goodwill associated with theatre properties, and $4.7 million of intangible assets associated with theatre properties. See Notes 10 and 11 to our consolidated financial statements.
     (Gain) Loss on Sale of Assets and Other. We recorded a loss on sale of assets and other of $8.5 million during 2008 compared to a gain on sale of assets and other of $3.0 million during 2007. The loss recorded during 2008 was primarily related to the write-off of theatre equipment that was replaced, the write-off of prepaid rent for an international theatre, and damages to certain of our theatres in Texas related to Hurricane Ike. The gain recorded during 2007 primarily related to the sale of real property associated with one theatre in the U.S.
     Interest Expense. Interest costs incurred, including amortization of debt issue costs, was $116.1 million for 2008 compared to $145.6 million for 2007. The decrease was primarily due to the repurchase of substantially all of our outstanding 9% senior subordinated notes that occurred during March and April 2007, the repurchase of a portion of our 9 3/4% senior discount notes during the second half of 2007 and 2008, and a reduction in the variable interest rates on a portion of our long-term debt. In addition, during the 2008 period, we recorded a gain of approximately $5.4 million as a component of interest expense related to the change in fair value of one of our interest rate swap agreements that was deemed not highly effective. See Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our interest rate swap agreements.
     Gain on NCM Transaction. During 2007, we recorded a gain of $210.8 million on the sale of a portion of our equity investment in NCM in conjunction with the initial public offering of NCM, Inc. common stock. Our ownership interest in NCM was reduced from approximately 25% to approximately 14% as part of this sale of stock in the offering. See Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements.
     Gain on Fandango Transaction. During 2007, we recorded a gain of $9.2 million as a result of the sale of our investment in stock of Fandango, Inc. See Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements.
     (Gain) Loss on Early Retirement of Debt. During 2008, we recorded a gain on early retirement of debt of $1.7 million as a result of the repurchase of $47.0 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of our 9 3/4% senior discount notes partially offset by the write-off of unamortized debt issue costs. During 2007, we recorded a loss on early retirement of debt of $13.5 million as a result of the repurchase of $332.1 million aggregate principal amount of our 9% senior subordinated notes and the repurchase of $69.2 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of our 9 3/4% senior discount notes, and the related write-off of unamortized debt issue costs and the payment of premiums, fees and expenses. See Note 13 to our consolidated financial statements.
     Distributions from NCM. We recorded distributions received from NCM of $18.8 million during 2008 and $11.5 million during 2007, which were in excess of the carrying value of our investment. See Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements.

     Income Taxes. Income tax expense of $20.7 million was recorded for 2008 compared to $109.5 million recorded for 2007. The effective tax rate of (73.3)% for 2008 reflects the impact of our 2008 goodwill impairment charges, which are not deductible for income tax purposes. The effective tax rate in 2008 net of the impact from the goodwill impairment charges would have been approximately 41.1%. The effective tax rate of 56.3% for 2007 reflects the impact of our 2007 goodwill impairment charges, which are not deductible for income tax purposes. The effective tax rate in 2007 net of the impact from the goodwill impairment charges would have been approximately 41.8%.

     As of December 31, 2008, we carried out an evaluation required by the 1934 Act, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the 1934 Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2008, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the 1934 Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and were effective to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
     Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
     Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the 1934 Act. The Company’s internal control framework and processes are designed to provide reasonable assurance to management and the board of directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008 based on criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. As a result of this assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2008, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.
     Certifications of our CEO and our CFO, which are required in accordance with Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act, are attached as exhibits to this Annual Report. This “Controls and Procedures” section includes the information concerning the controls evaluation referred to in the certifications, and it should be read in conjunction with the certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.
     The Company’s independent auditors, Deloitte & Touche LLP, with direct access to the Company’s board of directors through its Audit Committee, have audited the consolidated financial statements prepared by the Company. Their report on the consolidated financial statements is included in Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

Deloitte & Touche LLP’s report on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is included herein.

     Limitations on Controls

Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.

Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
     A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company’s board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
     Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
     In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, based on the criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
     We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2008 and our report dated March 10, 2009 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Cinemark, Inc.
Plano, Texas
     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Cinemark, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2007 (Successor) and 2008 (Successor), and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficiency) and comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for the period from January 1, 2006 to October 4, 2006 (Predecessor), the period from October 5, 2006 to December 31, 2006 (Successor), and each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2008 (Successor). These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
     We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
     In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Cinemark, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 (Successor) and 2008 (Successor), and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the period from January 1, 2006 to October 4, 2006 (Predecessor), the period from October 5, 2006 to December 31, 2006 (Successor), and each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2008 (Successor), in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
     Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules listed in the index to the consolidated financial statements on page F-1 are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic consolidated financial statements. These schedules are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Such schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the basic consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.
     As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, in 2007 the Company changed its method of accounting for uncertainty in income taxes to adopt Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of SFAS No. 109.
     We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 10, 2009 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
     Business — Cinemark, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) are leaders in the motion picture exhibition industry in terms of both revenues and the number of screens in operation, with theatres in the United States (“U.S.”), Canada, Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Peru, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama and Colombia. The Company also managed additional theatres in the U.S., Brazil, and Colombia during the year ended December 31, 2008.
     Basis of Presentation — On August 2, 2006, Cinemark Holdings, Inc. was formed as the Delaware holding company of Cinemark, Inc. On August 7, 2006, the Cinemark, Inc. stockholders entered into a share exchange agreement pursuant to which they agreed to exchange their shares of Class A common stock for an equal number of shares of common stock of Cinemark Holdings, Inc. (“Cinemark Share Exchange”). The Cinemark Share Exchange was completed on October 5, 2006 and facilitated the acquisition of Century Theatres, Inc. (“Century Acquisition”). On October 5, 2006, Cinemark, Inc. became a wholly owned subsidiary of Cinemark Holdings, Inc.
     Due to a change in reporting entity that occurred as a result of the Cinemark Share Exchange, Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s accounting basis has been pushed down to the Company effective on the date of the Cinemark Share Exchange, October 5, 2006. The accompanying consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and stockholders’ equity (deficiency) present the results of the Company’s operations and cash flows for the periods preceding the Cinemark Share Exchange as Predecessor and the periods subsequent to the Cinemark Share Exchange as Successor. See Note 4.
     On April 24, 2007, the Company’s parent, Cinemark Holdings, Inc. completed an initial public offering of its common stock.
     Principles of Consolidation — The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cinemark, Inc. and subsidiaries. Majority-owned subsidiaries that the Company has control of are consolidated while those subsidiaries of which the Company owns between 20% and 50% and does not control are accounted for as affiliates under the equity method. Those subsidiaries of which the Company owns less than 20% are generally accounted for as affiliates under the cost method, unless the Company is deemed to have the ability to exercise significant influence over the affiliate, in which case the Company would account for its investment under the equity method. The results of these subsidiaries and affiliates are included in the consolidated financial statements effective with their formation or from their dates of acquisition. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
     Cash and Cash Equivalents — Cash and cash equivalents consist of operating funds held in financial institutions, petty cash held by the theatres and highly liquid investments with remaining maturities of three months or less when purchased. At December 31, 2008, cash investments were primarily in money market funds.
     Inventories — Concession and theatre supplies inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.
     Theatre Properties and Equipment — Theatre properties and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Additions to theatre properties and equipment include the capitalization of $86, $0, $618 and $270 of interest incurred during the development and construction of theatres during the period from January 1, 2006 to October 4, 2006, the period from October 5, 2006 to December 31, 2006, and years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
     
Category   Useful Life
Buildings on owned land
  40 years
Buildings on leased land
  Lesser of lease term or useful life
Buildings under capital lease
  Lesser of lease term or useful life
Theatre furniture and equipment
  5 to 15 years
Leasehold improvements
  Lesser of lease term or useful life
     In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” the Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment indicators on a quarterly basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable.

     The Company considers actual theatre level cash flows, future years budgeted theatre level cash flows, theatre property and equipment carrying values, amortizing intangible assets carrying values, the age of a recently built theatre, competitive theatres in the marketplace, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, the impact of recent ticket price changes, available lease renewal options and other factors considered relevant in its assessment of impairment of individual theatre assets. Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment on an individual theatre basis, which the Company believes is the lowest applicable level for which there are identifiable cash flows. The impairment evaluation is based on the estimated undiscounted cash flows from continuing use through the remainder of the theatre’s useful life. The remainder of the useful life correlates with the available remaining lease period, which includes the probability of renewal periods for leased properties and a period of twenty years for fee owned properties. If the estimated undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover a long-lived asset’s carrying value, the Company then compares the carrying value of the asset group (theatre) with its estimated fair value. Fair value is determined based on a multiple of cash flows, which was eight times for the evaluations performed during 2006, 2007 and the first, second and third quarters of 2008 and six and a half times for the evaluation performed during the fourth quarter of 2008. When estimated fair value is determined to be lower than the carrying value of the asset group (theatre), the asset group (theatre) is written down to its estimated fair value. Significant judgment is involved in estimating cash flows and fair value. Management’s estimates are based on historical and projected operating performance as well as recent market transactions. See Note 11.
     Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets — Goodwill is the excess of cost over fair value of theatre businesses acquired. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill might exceed its estimated fair value. The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level and has allocated goodwill to the reporting unit based on an estimate of its relative fair value. Goodwill impairment is evaluated using a two-step approach requiring the Company to compute the fair value of a reporting unit and compare it with its carrying value. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, a second step is performed to measure the potential goodwill impairment. Fair value is determined based on a multiple of cash flows, which was eight times for the goodwill impairment evaluations performed during 2006 and 2007 and six and a half times for the evaluation performed during 2008. Significant judgment is involved in estimating cash flows and fair value. Management’s estimates are based on historical and projected operating performance as well as recent market transactions. Prior to January 1, 2008, the Company considered its theatres reporting units for purposes of evaluating goodwill for impairment. Recent changes in the organization, including changes in the structure of the Company’s executive management team, Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s initial public offering of common stock, the resulting changes in the level at which the Company’s management team evaluates the business on a regular basis, and the Century Acquisition that increased the size of the Company’s theatre base by approximately 25%, led the Company to conclude that its U.S. regions and international countries are now more reflective of how it manages and operates its business. Accordingly, the Company’s U.S. regions and international countries represent the appropriate reporting units for purposes of evaluating goodwill for impairment. Consequently, effective January 1, 2008, the Company changed the reporting unit to sixteen regions in the U.S. and each of its eight countries internationally (Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama are considered one reporting unit) from approximately four hundred theatres. The goodwill impairment test performed during December 2007 that resulted in the recording of impairment charges during the year ended December 31, 2007 reflected the final calculation utilizing theatres as reporting units. See Notes 10 and 11.
     Tradename intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually during the fourth quarter or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company estimates the fair value of its tradenames by applying an estimated market royalty rate that could be charged for the use of the Company’s tradename to forecasted future revenues, with an adjustment for the present value of such royalties. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying value, the tradename intangible asset is written down to the estimated fair value.

     The table below summarizes the Company’s intangible assets and the amortization method used for each type of intangible asset:
     
Intangible Asset   Amortization Method
Goodwill
  Indefinite-lived
Tradename
  Indefinite-lived
Capitalized licensing fees
  Straight-line method over 15 years. The remaining terms of the underlying agreements range from 6 to 11 years.
Vendor contracts
  Straight-line method over the terms of the underlying contracts. The remaining terms of the underlying contracts range from 1 to 14 years.
Net favorable leases
  Based on the pattern in which the economic benefits are realized over the terms of the lease agreements. The remaining terms of the lease agreements range from 1 to 28 years.
Other intangible assets
  Straight-line method over the terms of the underlying agreement. The remaining term of the underlying agreement is 10 years.
     Deferred Charges and Other Assets — Deferred charges and other assets consist of debt issue costs, long-term prepaid rents, construction advances and other deposits, equipment to be placed in service and other assets. Debt issue costs are amortized using the straight-line method (which approximates the effective interest method) over the primary financing terms of the related debt agreement. Long-term prepaid rents represent advance rental payments on operating leases. These payments are recognized to facility lease expense over the period for which the rent was paid in advance as outlined in the lease agreements. These periods generally range from 10 to 20 years.
     Lease Accounting — The Company accounts for leased properties under the provisions of SFAS No. 13, “Accounting for Leases”, and other authoritative accounting literature. SFAS No. 13 requires that the Company evaluate each lease for classification as either a capital lease or an operating lease. According to SFAS No. 13, if substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership have been transferred to the lessee, the lessee records the lease as a capital lease at its inception. The Company performs this evaluation at the inception of the lease and when a modification is made to a lease. If the lease agreement calls for a scheduled rent increase during the lease term, the Company, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Technical Bulletin 85-3, “Accounting for Operating Leases with Scheduled Rent Increases”, recognizes the lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term as deferred lease expense. The Company determines the straight-line rent expense impact of an operating lease upon inception of the lease. For leases in which the Company is involved with construction of the theatre, the Company accounts for the lease during the construction period under the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 97-10, “The Effect of Lessee Involvement in Asset Construction”. The landlord is typically responsible for constructing a theatre using guidelines and specifications agreed to by the Company and assumes substantially all of the risk of construction. In accordance with EITF 97-10, if the Company concludes that it has substantially all of the construction period risks, it records a construction asset and related liability for the amount of total project costs incurred during the construction period. At the end of the construction period, the Company considers SFAS No. 98, “Accounting for Leases: Sale-leaseback Transactions Involving Real Estate”, to determine if the transaction qualifies for sale-leaseback accounting treatment in regards to lease classification.
     Deferred Revenues — Advances collected on long-term screen advertising, concession and other contracts are recorded as deferred revenues. In accordance with the terms of the agreements, the advances collected on such contracts are recognized during the period in which the advances are earned, which may differ from the period in which the advances are collected.
     Revenue and Expense Recognition — Revenues are recognized when admissions and concession sales are received at the box office. Other revenues primarily consist of screen advertising. Screen advertising revenues are recognized over the period that the related advertising is delivered on-screen or in-theatre. The Company records proceeds from the sale of gift cards and other advanced sale-type certificates in current liabilities and recognizes admissions and concession revenue when a holder redeems the card or certificate. The Company recognizes unredeemed gift cards and other advanced sale-type certificates as revenue only after such a period of time indicates, based on historical experience, the likelihood of redemption is remote, and based on applicable laws and regulations. In evaluating the likelihood of redemption, the Company considers the period outstanding, the level and frequency of activity, and the period of inactivity. The Company recognized unredeemed gift cards and other advance sale-type certificates as revenues in the amount of $1,259, $3,162, $5,516 and $7,629 during the period

from January 1, 2006 to October 4, 2006, the period from October 5, 2006 to December 31, 2006 and years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
     Film rental costs are accrued based on the applicable box office receipts and either the mutually agreed upon firm terms or sliding scale formula, which are established prior to the opening of the film, or estimates of the final mutually agreed upon settlement, which occurs at the conclusion of the film run, subject to the film licensing arrangement. Under a firm terms formula, the Company pays the distributor a mutually agreed upon specified percentage of box office receipts, which reflects either a mutually agreed upon aggregate rate for the life of the film or rates that decline over the term of the run. Under the sliding scale formula, film rental is paid as a percentage of box office revenues using a pre-determined matrix based upon box office performance of the film. The settlement process allows for negotiation of film rental fees upon the conclusion of the film run based upon how the film performs. Estimates are based on the expected success of a film over the length of its run in theatres. The success of a film can typically be determined a few weeks after a film is released when initial box office performance of the film is known. Accordingly, final settlements typically approximate estimates since box office receipts are known at the time the estimate is made and the expected success of a film over the length of its run in theatres can typically be estimated early in the film’s run. The final film settlement amount is negotiated at the conclusion of the film’s run based upon how a film actually performs. If actual settlements are different than those estimated, film rental costs are adjusted at that time. The Company recognizes advertising costs and any cost sharing arrangements with film distributors in the same accounting period. The Company’s advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses for the period from January 1, 2006 to October 4, 2006, the period from October 5, 2006 to December 31, 2006 and years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008 were $11,285, $4,441, $17,252 and $16,839, respectively.
     Accounting for Share Based Awards — In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), “Share Based Payment”, which established accounting standards for all transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods and services. SFAS No. 123(R) eliminated the intrinsic value measurement objective in Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25 and generally requires a Company to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award on the date of the grant. The standard requires grant date fair value to be estimated using either an option-pricing model, consistent with the terms of the award, or a market observed price, if such a price exists. Such costs must be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (which is usually the vesting period). The standard also requires a Company to estimate the number of instruments that will ultimately be forfeited, rather than accounting for forfeitures as they occur.
     The Company applied SFAS No. 123(R) using the “modified prospective method”, under which it recognized compensation cost for all awards granted, modified or settled on or after January 1, 2006 and for the unvested portion of previously granted awards that were outstanding on January 1, 2006. The Company had approximately 4,554,253 unvested options outstanding on January 1, 2006. See Note 18 for discussion of all the Company’s share based awards and related compensation expense.
     Income Taxes — The Company participates in the consolidated return of its parent, Cinemark Holdings, Inc. The Company’s provision for income taxes is computed as if it were a separate taxpayer. The Company uses an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes are provided when tax laws and financial accounting standards differ with respect to the amount of income for a year and the basis of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amount of deferred tax assets unless it is more likely than not that such assets will be realized. Income taxes are provided on unremitted earnings from foreign subsidiaries unless such earnings are expected to be indefinitely reinvested. Income taxes have also been provided for potential tax assessments. The related tax accruals are recorded in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of SFAS No. 109” (FIN 48), which the Company adopted on January 1, 2007. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting and reporting for income taxes recognized in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, and the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. The evaluation of a tax position in accordance with FIN 48 is a two-step process. The first step is recognition: The Company determines whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. In evaluating whether a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the Company should presume that the position would be examined by the appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all relevant information. The second step is measurement: A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater

than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Differences between tax positions taken in a tax return and amounts recognized in the financial statements result in (1) a change in a liability for income taxes payable or (2) a change in an income tax refund receivable, a deferred tax asset or a deferred tax liability or both (1) and (2). The Company accrues interest and penalties on its FIN 48 tax provisions.
     Segments — As of December 31, 2008, the Company managed its business under two reportable operating segments, U.S. markets and international markets, in accordance with SFAS No. 131 ”Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.” See Note 22.
     Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. The Company’s consolidated financial statements include amounts that are based on management’s best estimates and judgments. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
     Foreign Currency Translations — The assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates as of the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are translated at average monthly exchange rates. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded in the consolidated balance sheet in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
     Fair Value Measurements The Company has interest rate swap agreements that are adjusted to fair value on a recurring basis (quarterly). The Company’s fair value measurements are based on projected future interest rates as provided by the counterparties to the interest rate swap agreements and the fixed rates that the Company is obligated to pay under these agreements. Therefore, the Company’s measurements use significant unobservable inputs, which fall in Level 3 under SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements.” Below is a reconciliation of our interest rate swap values, as included in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, from the beginning of the year to the end of the year:
         
Beginning balance — January 1, 2008
  $ (18,422 )
Total gains (losses):
       
Included in earnings (as component of interest expense)
    5,422

Ending balance — December 31, 2008
  $ (24,781 )
 
     
     See Note 14 for further discussion of the terms of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements.
     Acquisitions — The Company accounts for acquisitions under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations”. The purchase method requires that the Company estimate the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and allocate consideration paid accordingly. For significant acquisitions, the Company obtains independent third party valuation studies for certain of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed to assist the Company in determining fair value. The estimation of the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed involves a number of estimates and assumptions that could differ materially from the actual amounts recorded. The Company provides the assumptions, including both quantitative and qualitative information, about the specified asset or liability to the third party valuation firms. The Company primarily utilizes the third parties to accumulate comparative data from multiple sources and assemble a report that summarizes the information obtained. The Company then uses the information to determine fair value. The third party valuation firms are supervised by Company personnel who are knowledgeable about valuations and fair value. The Company evaluates the appropriateness of the valuation methodology utilized by the third party valuation firm.
     Comprehensive Income (Loss) — Total comprehensive income (loss) for the period from January 1, 2006 to October 4, 2006, the period from October 5, 2006 to December 31, 2006 and years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, was $32,558, ($8,134), $106,215 and $(153,953), respectively. Total comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income (loss), foreign currency translation adjustments, fair value adjustments on the Company’s interest rate swap agreements and the

amortization of accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the Company’s terminated swap agreement. See Notes 14 and 15.
2. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
     In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” Among other requirements, this statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The statement applies whenever other statements require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. SFAS No. 157 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2008 (January 1, 2009 for nonfinancial assets and liabilities). Adoption of this statement did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
     In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. This statement provides companies with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value that are currently not required to be measured at fair value. SFAS No. 159 establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 was effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2008. The Company did not elect the fair value option. Adoption of this statement did not not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
     In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations”. This statement requires all business combinations completed after the effective date to be accounted for by applying the acquisition method (previously referred to as the purchase method); expands the definition of transactions and events that qualify as business combinations; requires that the acquired assets and liabilities, including contingencies, be recorded at the fair value determined on the acquisition date and changes thereafter reflected in income, not goodwill; changes the recognition timing for restructuring costs; and requires acquisition costs to be expensed as incurred rather than being capitalized as part of the cost of the acquisition. Adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) is required for business combinations that occur after December 15, 2008. Early adoption and retroactive application of SFAS No. 141(R) to fiscal years preceding the effective date is not permitted. Adoption of this statement is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
     In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Financial Statements”. This statement establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Specifically, this statement requires the recognition of a noncontrolling interest (minority interest) as equity in the consolidated financial statements and separate from the parent’s equity. The amount of net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will no longer be shown as an expense item for all periods presented, but will be included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement. SFAS No. 160 requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated income statement, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and the noncontrolling interest. SFAS No. 160 clarifies that changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions if the parent retains its controlling financial interest. In addition, this statement requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. Such gain or loss will be measured using the fair value of the noncontrolling equity investment on the deconsolidation date. SFAS No. 160 also includes expanded disclosure requirements regarding the interests of the parent and its noncontrolling interest. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. Adoption of this statement is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
     In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161 “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”. This statement intends to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures about their impact on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 requires disclosures regarding the objectives for using derivative instruments, the fair values of derivative instruments and their related gains and losses, and the accounting for derivatives and related hedged items. SFAS No. 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of SFAS No. 161 will not impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and the Company does not expect the statement to have a significant impact on its disclosures.

     In June 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position Emerging Issues Task Force 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities” (“FSP-EITF 03-6-1”). Under FSP-EITF 03-6-1, unvested share based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. FSP-EITF 03-6-1 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those years and requires retrospective application. The adoption of FSP-EITF 03-6-1 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s earnings per share calculations.
3. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING OF CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC.’S COMMON STOCK
     On April 24, 2007, the Company’s parent, Cinemark Holdings, Inc., completed an initial public offering of its common stock. Cinemark Holdings, Inc. sold 13,888,889 shares of its common stock and selling stockholders sold an additional 14,111,111 shares of common stock at a price of $17.955 ($19 per share less underwriting discounts). The net proceeds (before expenses) received by Cinemark Holdings, Inc. were $249,375 and Cinemark Holdings, Inc. paid approximately $3,526 in legal, accounting and other fees, all of which are recorded in its additional paid-in-capital. The selling stockholders granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 2,800,000 shares of Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s common stock at a price of $17.955 ($19 per share less underwriting discounts). On May 21, 2007, the underwriters purchased an additional 269,100 shares from the selling stockholders pursuant to this option. Cinemark Holdings, Inc. did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling stockholders. Cinemark Holdings, Inc. has utilized a portion of the net proceeds that it received from the offering to repurchase a portion of its outstanding 9 3/4% senior discount notes. See Note 13. Cinemark Holdings, Inc. expects to continue to use the net proceeds to repurchase a portion of the remaining 9 3/4% senior discount notes. The 9 3/4% senior discount notes are not subject to repurchase at the Company’s option until March 15, 2009. Accordingly, if the Company is unable to repurchase the 9 3/4% senior discount notes at acceptable prices, Cinemark Holdings, Inc. will evaluate the use of a portion of the remaining net proceeds to repay term loan debt outstanding under the senior secured credit facility. Cinemark Holdings, Inc. has significant flexibility in applying the net proceeds from the initial public offering. Cinemark Holdings, Inc. has invested the remaining net proceeds in money market funds.
4. MERGER WITH MADISON DEARBORN PARTNERS AND RELATED CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING BASIS
     On April 2, 2004, a newly formed subsidiary of an affiliate of Madison Dearborn Partners (“MDP”) was merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “MDP Merger”). Simultaneously, an affiliate of MDP purchased shares of the Company’s common stock for $518,245 in cash and became the Company’s controlling stockholder, owning approximately 83% of the Company’s capital stock. Lee Roy Mitchell, the Company’s then Chief Executive Officer, and the Mitchell Special Trust collectively retained approximately 16% ownership of the Company’s capital stock with certain members of management owning the remaining 1%.
     On April 2, 2004, the Company accounted for the MDP Merger as a leveraged recapitalization, which resulted in the Company and its subsidiaries retaining their historical book values. Upon the Cinemark Share Exchange on October 5, 2006, and the resulting change in reporting entity, the Company was required to prepare its financial statements to reflect the accounting basis of its parent, Cinemark Holdings, Inc. Cinemark Holdings, Inc. accounted for the MDP merger under the purchase method of accounting on April 2, 2004.

5. ACQUISITION OF CENTURY THEATRES, INC. AND RELATED REFINANCING OF CERTAIN LONG-TERM DEBT
     On October 5, 2006, the Company completed its acquisition of Century Theatres, Inc. (“Century”), a national theatre chain headquartered in San Rafael, California with approximately 77 theatres in 12 states, for a purchase price of approximately $681,225 and the assumption of approximately $360,000 of debt of Century. Of the total purchase price, $150,000 consisted of the issuance of shares of Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s common stock. The Company also incurred approximately $7,448 in transaction costs.
     The transaction was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations”. The following table represents the allocation of purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
         
Current assets (1)
  $ 32,635

(1)   Includes cash of $7,290.
     The tradename and net unfavorable leases are presented as intangible assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2007 and 2008. Goodwill represents the excess of the costs of acquiring Century over amounts assigned to assets acquired, including identifiable intangible assets, and liabilities assumed. The goodwill recorded as a result of the Century Acquisition was not deductible for tax purposes.
     On October 5, 2006, the Company entered into a senior secured credit facility, which provided for a $1,120,000 term loan and a $150,000 revolving credit line. The net proceeds of the term loan were used to finance a portion of the $531,225 cash portion of the purchase price, to repay in full the $253,500 outstanding under the former senior secured credit facility, repay approximately $360,000 of existing indebtedness of Century and to pay related fees and expenses. See Note 13 for further discussion of long-term debt.
     The Century Acquisition is reflected in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the period subsequent to the transaction date and is reported in the Company’s U.S. operating segment. The pro forma financial information presented below sets forth the Company’s pro forma consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2006 to give effect to the Century Acquisition as if the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the period.

6. INVESTMENT IN NATIONAL CINEMEDIA LLC AND TRANSACTION RELATED TO ITS INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
     In March 2005, Regal Entertainment Inc. (“Regal”) and AMC Entertainment Inc. (“AMC”) formed National CineMedia, LLC, or “NCM”, and on July 15, 2005, the Company joined NCM, as one of the founding members. NCM operates the largest digital in-theatre network in the U.S. for providing cinema advertising and non-film events and combines the cinema advertising and non-film events businesses of the three largest motion picture companies in the U.S. Upon joining NCM, the Company and NCM entered into an Exhibitor Services Agreement, pursuant to which NCM provides advertising, promotion and event services to the Company’s theatres. On February 13, 2007, National CineMedia, Inc., or NCM Inc., a newly formed entity that now serves as a member and the sole manager of NCM, completed an initial public offering of its common stock. In connection with the NCM Inc. initial public offering, the Company amended its operating agreement with NCM and the Exhibitor Services Agreement pursuant to which NCM provides advertising, promotion and event services to the Company’s theatres. In connection with NCM Inc.’s initial public offering and the transactions described below (the “NCM Transaction”), the Company received an aggregate of $389,003.
     Prior to pricing the initial public offering of NCM Inc., NCM completed a recapitalization whereby (1) each issued and outstanding Class A unit of NCM was split into 44,291 Class A units, and (2) following such split of Class A Units, each issued and outstanding Class A Unit was recapitalized into one common unit and one preferred unit. As a result, the

F-16

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In thousands, except share and per share data
Company received 14,159,437 common units and 14,159,437 preferred units. All existing preferred units of NCM, or 55,850,951 preferred units, held by Regal, AMC and the Company were redeemed on a pro-rata basis on February 13, 2007. NCM utilized the proceeds of its new $725,000 term loan facility and a portion of the proceeds it received from NCM Inc. from its initial public offering to redeem all of its outstanding preferred units. Each preferred unit was redeemed for $13.7782 and the Company received approximately $195,092 as payment in full for redemption of all of the Company’s preferred units in NCM. Upon payment of such amount, each preferred unit was cancelled and the holders of the preferred units ceased to have any rights with respect to the preferred units.
     At the closing of the initial public offering, the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option to purchase additional shares of common stock of NCM Inc. at the initial public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. In connection with the over-allotment option exercise, Regal, AMC and the Company each sold to NCM Inc. common units of NCM on a pro-rata basis at the initial public offering price, less underwriting discounts and expenses. The Company sold 1,014,088 common units to NCM Inc. for proceeds of $19,910, and upon completion of this sale of common units, the Company owned 13,145,349 common units of NCM. The net proceeds of $215,002 from the above described stock transactions were applied against the Company’s existing investment basis in NCM of $4,069 until such basis was reduced to $0 with the remaining $210,933 of proceeds net of $160 of transaction related costs, recorded as a gain of $210,773 in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2007.
     NCM also paid the Company a portion of the proceeds it received from NCM Inc. in the initial public offering for agreeing to modify NCM’s payment obligation under the prior Exhibitor Services Agreement. The modification agreed to by the Company reflects a shift from circuit share expense under the prior Exhibitor Services Agreement, which obligated NCM to pay the Company a percentage of revenue, to the monthly theatre access fee described below. The theatre access fee will significantly reduce the contractual amounts paid to the Company by NCM. In exchange for the Company agreeing to so modify the agreement, NCM paid the Company approximately $174,001 upon modification of the Exhibitor Services Agreement on February 13, 2007, the proceeds of which were recorded as deferred revenue on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The Company believes this payment approximates the fair value of the Exhibitor Services Agreement modification. The deferred revenue is being amortized into other revenues over the life of the agreement using the units of revenue method. Regal and AMC similarly amended their exhibitor service agreements with NCM.
     In consideration for NCM’s exclusive access to the Company’s theatre attendees for on-screen advertising and use of off-screen locations within the Company’s theatres for the lobby entertainment network and lobby promotions, the Company will receive a monthly theatre access fee under the Exhibitor Services Agreement. The theatre access fee is composed of a fixed payment per patron, initially seven cents, and a fixed payment per digital screen, which may be adjusted for certain enumerated reasons. The payment per theatre patron will increase by 8% every five years, with the first such increase taking effect after the end of fiscal 2011, and the payment per digital screen, initially eight hundred dollars per digital screen per year, will increase annually by 5%, beginning after 2007. For 2008, the annual payment per digital screen is eight hundred forty dollars. The theatre access fee paid in the aggregate to Regal, AMC and the Company will not be less than 12% of NCM’s Aggregate Advertising Revenue (as defined in the Exhibitor Services Agreement), or it will be adjusted upward to reach this minimum payment. Additionally, with respect to any on-screen advertising time provided to the Company’s beverage concessionaire, the Company is required to purchase such time from NCM at a negotiated rate. The Exhibitor Services Agreement has, except with respect to certain limited services, a term of 30 years.
     Prior to the initial public offering of NCM Inc. common stock, the Company’s ownership interest in NCM was approximately 25% and subsequent to the completion of the offering the Company held a 14% interest in NCM. Subsequent to NCM Inc.’s initial public offering, the Company continues to account for its investment in NCM under the equity method of accounting due to its ability to exercise significant control over NCM. The Company has substantial rights as a founding member, including the right to designate a total of two nominees to the ten-member board of directors of NCM Inc., the sole manager. So long as the Company owns at least 5% of NCM’s membership interests, approval of at least 90% (80% if the board has less than 10 directors) will be required before NCM Inc. may take certain actions including but not limited to mergers and acquisitions, issuance of common or preferred shares, approval of NCM Inc.’s budget, incurrence of indebtedness, entering into or terminating material agreements, and modifications to its articles of incorporation or bylaws.

the NCM operating agreement, hiring or termination of the chief executive officer, chief financial officer, chief technology officer or chief marketing officer of NCM and the dissolution or liquidation of NCM.
     During 2008, NCM performed a common unit adjustment calculation in accordance with the Common Unit Adjustment Agreement dated as of February 13, 2007 between NCM, Inc. and the Company, Regal and AMC. The common unit adjustment is based on the change in the number of screens operated by and attendance of the Company, AMC and Regal. As a result of the common unit adjustment calculation, the Company received an additional 846,303 common units of NCM, each of which is convertible into one share of NCM, Inc. common stock. The Company recorded the additional common units received at fair value as an investment with a corresponding adjustment to deferred revenue of $19,020. The common unit adjustment resulted in an increase in the Company’s ownership percentage in NCM from approximately 14.0% to approximately 14.5%.
     Subsequent to the annual common unit adjustment discussed above, in May 2008, Regal completed an acquisition of another theatre circuit that required an extraordinary common unit adjustment calculation by NCM in accordance with the Common Unit Adjustment Agreement. As a result of this extraordinary common unit adjustment, Regal was granted additional common units of NCM, which resulted in dilution of the Company’s ownership interest in NCM from 14.5% to 14.1%. The Company recognized a change of interest loss of approximately $75 during the year ended December 31, 2008 as a result of this extraordinary common unit adjustment, which is reflected in (gain) loss on sale of assets and other on the consolidated statement of operations.
     As of December 31, 2008, the Company owned a total of 13,991,652 common units of NCM.

The dividend restriction contained in the indenture prevents Cinemark, Inc. from paying a dividend or otherwise distributing cash to its stockholders unless (1) it is not in default, and the distribution would not cause it to be in default, under the indenture; (2) it would be able to incur at least $1.00 more of indebtedness without the ratio of its consolidated cash flow to its fixed charges (each as defined in the indenture, and calculated on a pro forma basis for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available, using certain assumptions and modifications specified in the indenture, and including the additional indebtedness then being incurred) falling below two to one (the “senior notes debt incurrence ratio test”); and (3) the aggregate amount of distributions made since March 31, 2004, including the distribution proposed, is less than the sum of (a) half of its consolidated net income (as defined in the indenture) since February 11, 2003, (b) the net proceeds from the issuance of stock since April 2, 2004, and (c) certain other amounts specified in the indenture, subject to certain adjustments specified in the indenture. The dividend restriction is subject to certain exceptions specified in the indenture.
     Upon certain specified types of change of control of Cinemark, Inc., Cinemark, Inc. would be required under the indenture to make an offer to repurchase all of the 9 3/4% senior discount notes at a price equal to 101% of the accreted value of the notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, through the date of repurchase.
     Senior Secured Credit Facility
     On October 5, 2006, in connection with the Century Acquisition, Cinemark USA, Inc., entered into a senior secured credit facility. The senior secured credit facility provides for a seven year term loan of $1,120,000 and a $150,000 revolving credit line that matures in six years unless Cinemark USA, Inc.’s 9% senior subordinated notes have not been refinanced by August 1, 2012 with indebtedness that matures no earlier than seven and one-half years after the closing date of the senior secured credit facility, in which case the maturity date of the revolving credit line becomes August 1, 2012. The net proceeds of the term loan were used to finance a portion of the $531,225 cash portion of the Century Acquisition, repay in full the $253,500 outstanding under the former senior secured credit facility, repay approximately $360,000 of existing indebtedness of Century and to pay for related fees and expenses. The revolving credit line was left undrawn at closing. The revolving credit line is used for general corporate purposes.
     At December 31, 2008, there was $1,094,800 outstanding under the term loan and no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit line. A minimum of approximately $121,431 was available for borrowing under the revolving credit line. The availability of the Company’s revolving credit facility may have recently been impacted by the bankruptcy of one of the lenders under the facility. As such, while the Company currently has only $69 (related to a letter of credit) outstanding under the $150 million revolving credit facility, it is uncertain whether this lender would fund its $28,500 commitment under the revolving credit facility. The average interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the senior secured credit facility at December 31, 2008 was 4.3% per annum.
     Under the term loan, principal payments of $2,800 are due each calendar quarter beginning December 31, 2006 through September 30, 2012 and increase to $263,200 each calendar quarter from December 31, 2012 to maturity at October 5, 2013. Prior to the amendment to the senior secured credit facility discussed below, the term loan accrued interest, at Cinemark USA, Inc.’s option, at: (A) the base rate equal to the higher of (1) the prime lending rate as set forth on the British Banking Association Telerate page 5 or (2) the federal funds effective rate from time to time plus 0.50%, plus a margin that ranges from 0.75% to 1.00% per annum, or (B) a “eurodollar rate” plus a margin that ranges from 1.75% to 2.00% per annum, in each case as adjusted pursuant to Cinemark USA, Inc.’s corporate credit rating. Borrowings under the revolving credit line bear interest, at Cinemark USA, Inc.’s option, at: (A) a base rate equal to the higher of (1) the prime lending rate as set forth on the British Banking Association Telerate page 5 and (2) the federal funds effective rate from time to time plus 0.50%, plus a margin that ranges from 0.50% to 1.00% per annum, or (B) a “eurodollar rate” plus a margin that ranges from 1.50% to 2.00% per annum, in each case as adjusted pursuant to Cinemark USA, Inc.’s consolidated net senior secured leverage ratio as defined in the credit agreement. Cinemark USA, Inc. is required to pay a commitment fee calculated at the rate of 0.50% per annum on the average daily unused portion of the revolving credit line, payable quarterly in arrears, which rate decreases to 0.375% per annum for any fiscal quarter in which Cinemark USA, Inc.’s consolidated net senior secured leverage ratio on the last day of such fiscal quarter is less than 2.25 to 1.0.

     On March 14, 2007, Cinemark USA, Inc. amended its senior secured credit facility to, among other things, modify the interest rate on the term loans under the senior secured credit facility, modify certain prepayment terms and covenants, and facilitate the tender offer for the 9% senior subordinated notes. The term loans now accrue interest, at Cinemark USA, Inc.’s option, at: (A) the base rate equal to the higher of (1) the prime lending rate as set forth on the British Banking Association Telerate page 5, or (2) the federal funds effective rate from time to time plus 0.50%, plus a margin that ranges from 0.50% to 0.75% per annum, or (B) a “eurodollar rate” plus a margin that ranges from 1.50% to 1.75%, per annum. In each case, the margin is a function of the corporate credit rating applicable to the borrower. The interest rate on the revolving credit line was not amended. Additionally, the amendment removed any obligation to prepay amounts outstanding under the senior secured credit facility in an amount equal to the amount of the net cash proceeds received from the NCM Transaction or from excess cash flows, and imposed a 1% prepayment premium for one year on certain prepayments of the term loans.
     Cinemark USA, Inc.’s obligations under the senior secured credit facility are guaranteed by Cinemark Holdings, Inc., Cinemark, Inc., and certain of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s domestic subsidiaries and are secured by mortgages on certain fee and leasehold properties and security interests in substantially all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and the guarantors’ personal property, including, without limitation, pledges of all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s capital stock, all of the capital stock of Cinemark, Inc., and certain of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the voting stock of certain of its foreign subsidiaries.
     The senior secured credit facility contains usual and customary negative covenants for agreements of this type, including, but not limited to, restrictions on Cinemark USA, Inc.’s ability, and in certain instances, its subsidiaries’ and Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s, and Cinemark, Inc.’s ability, to consolidate or merge or liquidate, wind up or dissolve; substantially change the nature of its business; sell, transfer or dispose of assets; create or incur indebtedness; create liens; pay dividends, repurchase stock and voluntarily repurchase or redeem the 9 3/4% senior discount notes; and make capital expenditures and investments. The senior secured credit facility also requires Cinemark USA, Inc. to satisfy a consolidated net senior secured leverage ratio covenant as determined in accordance with the senior secured credit facility. The dividend restriction contained in the senior secured credit facility prevents the Company and any of its subsidiaries from paying a dividend or otherwise distributing cash to its stockholders unless (1) the Company is not in default, and the distribution would not cause the Company to be in default, under the senior secured credit facility; and (2) the aggregate amount of certain dividends, distributions, investments, redemptions and capital expenditures made since October 5, 2006, including dividends declared by the board of directors, is less than the sum of (a) the aggregate amount of cash and cash equivalents received by Cinemark Holdings, Inc. or Cinemark USA, Inc. as common equity since October 5, 2006, (b) Cinemark USA, Inc.’s consolidated EBITDA minus 1.75 times its consolidated interest expense, each as defined in the senior secured credit facility, since October 1, 2006, (c) $150 million and (d) certain other amounts specified in the senior secured credit facility, subject to certain adjustments specified in the senior secured credit facility. The dividend restriction is subject to certain exceptions specified in the senior secured credit facility.
     The senior secured credit facility also includes customary events of default, including, among other things, payment default, covenant default, breach of representation or warranty, bankruptcy, cross-default, material ERISA events, certain types of change of control, material money judgments and failure to maintain subsidiary guarantees. If an event of default occurs, all commitments under the senior secured credit facility may be terminated and all obligations under the senior secured credit facility could be accelerated by the lenders, causing all loans outstanding (including accrued interest and fees payable thereunder) to be declared immediately due and payable.
     Former Senior Secured Credit Facility
     On October 5, 2006, in connection with the Century Acquisition, the $253,500 outstanding under the former senior secured credit facility was repaid in full with a portion of the proceeds from the senior secured credit facility. During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company recorded a loss on early retirement of debt of $5,782 related to the write-off of unamortized debt issue costs associated with the former senior secured credit facility.
     Senior Subordinated Notes
     On February 11, 2003, Cinemark USA, Inc. issued $150,000 aggregate principal amount of 9% senior subordinated notes due 2013 and on May 7, 2003, Cinemark USA, Inc. issued an additional $210,000 aggregate principal amount of 9% senior subordinated notes due 2013, collectively referred to as the 9% senior subordinated notes. Interest is payable on February 1 and August 1 of each year.

14. INTEREST RATE SWAP AGREEMENTS
     During 2007 and 2008, the Company entered into three interest rate swap agreements. The interest rate swap agreements qualify for cash flow hedge accounting in accordance with SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” The fair values of the interest rate swaps are recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as an asset or liability with the effective portion of the interest rate swaps’ gains or losses reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and the ineffective portion reported in earnings.
     In March 2007, the Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements with effective dates of August 13, 2007 and terms of five years each. The interest rate swaps were designated to hedge approximately $500,000 of the Company’s variable rate debt obligations under its senior secured credit facility. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements, the Company pays fixed rates of 4.918% and 4.922% on $375,000 and $125,000, respectively, of variable rate debt and receives interest at a variable rate based on the 3-month LIBOR. The 3-month LIBOR rate on each reset date determines the variable portion of the interest rate swaps for the three-month period following the reset date. No premium or discount was incurred upon the Company entering into the interest rate swaps because the pay and receive rates on the interest rate swaps represented prevailing rates for each counterparty at the time the interest rate swaps were consummated. The Company estimates the fair values of the interest rate swaps by comparing estimated future interest payments to be made under forecasted future 3-month LIBOR to the fixed rates in accordance with the interest rate swaps
     On September 14, 2008, the counterparty to the $375,000 interest rate swap agreement filed for bankruptcy protection. As a result, the Company determined that on September 15, 2008, when the counterparty’s credit rating was downgraded, the interest rate swap was no longer highly effective. On October 1, 2008, this interest rate swap was terminated by the Company. The change in fair value of this interest rate swap agreement from inception to September 14, 2008 of $18,147 was recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. The change in fair value from September 15, 2008 through September 30, 2008 of $3,324 and the gain on termination of $2,098 were recorded in earnings as a component of interest expense during the year ended December 31, 2008. Upon termination of this swap, the Company paid approximately $13,804, including accrued interest of $1,079, pursuant to the terms of the interest rate swap agreement. The Company determined that the forecasted transactions hedged by this interest rate swap are still probable to occur, thus the total amount reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to this swap of $18,147 is being amortized on a straight-line basis to interest expense over the period during which the forecasted transactions are expected to occur, which is September 15, 2008 through August 13, 2012. The Company amortized approximately $1,351 to interest expense during the year ended December 31, 2008. The Company will amortize approximately $4,633 to interest expense over the next twelve months.
     On October 3, 2008, the Company entered into one interest rate swap agreement with an effective date of November 14, 2008 and a term of four years. The interest rate swap was designated to hedge approximately $100,000 of the Company’s variable rate debt obligations under its senior secured credit facility for three years and $75,000 of the Company’s variable rate debt obligations under its senior secured credit facility for four years. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreement, the Company pays a fixed rate of 3.63% on $175,000 of variable rate debt and receives interest at a variable rate based on the 1-month LIBOR. The 1-month LIBOR rate on each reset date determines the variable portion of the interest rate swap for the one-month period following the reset date. No premium or discount was incurred upon the Company entering into the interest rate swap because the pay and receive rates on the interest rate swap represented prevailing rates for the counterparty at the time the interest rate swap was consummated.
     As of December 31, 2008, the fair values of the $125,000 interest rate swap and the $175,000 interest rate swap were liabilities of approximately $13,304 and $11,477, respectively, which have been reported as a component of other long-term liabilities. These interest rate swaps exhibited no ineffectiveness during the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, therefore changes in the fair value of these swaps have been reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

15. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
     The accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) account in stockholders’ equity of $32,695 and $(72,347) at December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2008, respectively, includes the cumulative foreign currency adjustments of $44,043 and $(40,287), respectively, from translating the financial statements of the Company’s international subsidiaries.
     In 2007 and 2008, all foreign countries where the Company has operations were deemed non-highly inflationary. Thus, any fluctuation in the currency results in a cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
     On December 31, 2008, the exchange rate for the Brazilian real was 2.36 reais to the U.S. dollar (the exchange rate was 1.77 reais to the U.S. dollar at December 31, 2007). As a result, the effect of translating the December 31, 2008 Brazilian financial statements into U.S. dollars is reflected as a cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment to the accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) account as a decrease in stockholders’ equity of $49,951. At December 31, 2008, the total assets of the Company’s Brazilian subsidiaries were U.S. $170,378.
     On December 31, 2008, the exchange rate for the Mexican peso was 13.78 pesos to the U.S. dollar (the exchange rate was 10.92 pesos to the U.S. dollar at December 31, 2007). As a result, the effect of translating the December 31, 2008 Mexican financial statements into U.S. dollars is reflected as a cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment to the accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) account as a decrease in stockholders’ equity of $26,734. At December 31, 2008, the total assets of the Company’s Mexican subsidiaries were U.S. $123,148.
     On December 31, 2008, the exchange rate for the Chilean peso was 648.00 pesos to the U.S. dollar (the exchange rate was 497.70 pesos to the U.S. dollar at December 31, 2007). As a result, the effect of translating the December 31, 2008 Chilean financial statements into U.S. dollars is reflected as a cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment to the accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) account as a decrease in stockholder’s equity of $4,019. At December 31, 2008, the total assets of the Company’s Chilean subsidiaries were U.S. $19,621.
     The effect of translating the December 31, 2008 financial statements of our other international subsidiaries, with local currencies other than the U.S. dollar, is reflected as a cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment to the accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) account as a decrease in stockholders’ equity of $3,626.

18. CAPITAL STOCK
     Common and Preferred Stock — Class A common stockholders are entitled to vote on all matters submitted to a vote of the Company’s stockholders. Subject to the rights of holders of any then outstanding shares of the Company’s preferred stock, the Company’s common stockholders are entitled to any dividends that may be declared by the board of directors. Holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to share ratably in the Company’s net assets upon the Company’s dissolution or liquidation after payment or provision for all liabilities and any preferential liquidation rights of the Company’s preferred stock then outstanding. The shares of the Company’s common stock are not subject to any redemption provisions. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of the Company’s common stock will be subject to those of the holders of any shares of the Company’s preferred stock the Company may issue in the future.
     The Company has 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value, authorized with no shares issued or outstanding. The rights and preferences of preferred stock will be determined by the board of directors at the time of issuance.
     The Company’s ability to pay dividends is effectively limited by its status as a holding company and the terms of its indenture and its subsidiary’s senior secured credit facility, which also significantly restrict the ability of certain of the Company’s subsidiaries to pay dividends directly or indirectly to the Company. Furthermore, certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries currently have a deficit in retained earnings which prevents the Company from declaring and paying dividends from those subsidiaries.
     Share Based Awards — On September 30, 2004, Cinemark, Inc.’s board of directors and the majority of its stockholders approved the 2004 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “2004 Plan”) under which 9,097,360 shares of common stock are available for issuance to selected employees, directors and consultants of the Company. The 2004 Plan provided for restricted share grants, incentive option grants and nonqualified option grants.
     On August 2, 2006, Cinemark Holdings, Inc. was formed as the Delaware holding company of Cinemark, Inc. Under a share exchange agreement dated August 7, 2006, each outstanding share of Cinemark, Inc.’s Class A common stock was exchanged for an equivalent number of shares of Cinemark Holdings, Inc. common stock. The share exchange was completed on October 5, 2006.
     In November 2006, Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s board of directors amended the 2004 Plan to provide that no additional awards may be granted under the 2004 Plan. At that time, the Board of Cinemark Holdings, Inc. and the majority of Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s stockholders approved the 2006 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”) and all options to purchase shares of Cinemark Inc.’s Class A common stock under the 2004 Plan were exchanged for an equal number of options to purchase shares of Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s common stock under the 2006 Plan. The 2006 Plan is substantially similar to the 2004 Plan.
     During September 2007, Cinemark Holdings, Inc. filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form S-8 for purposes of registering shares available for issuance under the 2006 Plan.
     During October 2007, Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s board of directors and a majority of its stockholders approved an amendment to the 2006 Plan to provide for the ability to exercise an option on a cashless basis, by decreasing the number of shares deliverable upon the exercise of such option by an amount equal to the number of shares having an aggregate fair market value equal to the aggregate exercise price of such option. The amendment did not result in any additional compensation expense to the Company.
     During March 2008, Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s board of directors approved the Amended and Restated Cinemark Holdings, Inc. 2006 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “Restated Incentive Plan”). The Restated Incentive Plan amends and restates the 2006 Plan, to (i) increase the number of shares reserved for issuance from 9,097,360 shares of common stock to 19,100,000 shares of common stock and (ii) permit the Compensation Committee of Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s board of directors (the “Compensation Committee”) to award participants restricted stock units and performance awards. The right of a participant to exercise or receive a grant of a restricted stock unit or performance award may be subject to the satisfaction of such performance or objective business criteria as determined by the Compensation Committee. With the exception of the changes identified in (i) and (ii) above, the Restated Incentive Plan does not materially differ from the 2006 Plan. The

     Stock Options — On September 30, 2004, the Company granted options to purchase 6,986,731 shares of its common stock under the 2004 Plan at an exercise price of $7.63 per option. The exercise price was equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Options to purchase 692,976 shares vested immediately and the remaining options granted in 2004 vest daily over the period ending April 1, 2009. The options expire ten years from the grant date.

     Restricted Stock — During the year ended December 31, 2008, Cinemark Holdings, Inc. granted 353,948 shares of restricted stock to employees of the Company. The fair value of the shares of restricted stock was determined based on the market value of Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s stock on the dates of grant, which ranged from $8.87 to $14.65 per share. The Company assumed forfeiture rates ranging from zero to 2% for the restricted stock awards. The restricted stock vests over periods ranging from one year to four years based on continued service by the independent director or employee.
     There was no restricted stock activity during the period from January 1, 2006 to October 4, 2006, the period from October 5, 2006 to December 31, 2006, or the year ended December 31, 2007.

     The Company recorded total compensation expense of $919 related to these restricted stock awards during the year ended December 31, 2008. As of December 31, 2008, the remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to these restricted stock awards was approximately $3,648 and the weighted average period over which this remaining compensation expense will be recognized is approximately 2.75 years. The total fair value of shares vested during the year ended December 31, 2008 was $2. Upon vesting, the Company receives an income tax deduction. The Company recognized a tax benefit of $1 during the year ended December 31, 2008 related to the restricted stock that vested during 2008. The recipients of restricted stock are entitled to receive dividends and to vote their respective shares, however the sale and transfer of the restricted shares is prohibited during the restriction period.
     Restricted Stock Units — During the year ended December 31, 2008, Cinemark Holdings, Inc. granted restricted stock units representing 204,361 hypothetical shares of its common stock under the Restated Incentive Plan. The restricted stock units vest based on a combination of financial performance factors and continued service. The financial performance factors are based on an implied equity value concept that determines an internal rate of return (“IRR”) during the three fiscal year period ending December 31, 2010 based on a formula utilizing a multiple of Adjusted EBITDA subject to certain specified adjustments (as defined in the restricted stock unit award agreement). The financial performance factors for the restricted stock units have a threshold, target and maximum level of payment opportunity. If the IRR for the three year period is at least 8.5%, which is the threshold, one-third of the restricted stock units vest. If the IRR for the three year period is at least 10.5%, which is the target, two-thirds of the restricted stock units vest. If the IRR for the three year period is at least 12.5%, which is the maximum, 100% of the restricted stock units vest. All payouts of restricted stock units that vest are subject to an additional one year service requirement and will be paid in the form of common stock if the participant continues to provide services through the fourth anniversary of the grant date. Restricted stock unit award participants are eligible to receive dividend equivalent payments if and at the time the restricted stock unit awards become vested.
     Below is a table summarizing the potential restricted stock unit awards at each of the three levels of financial performance (excluding forfeiture assumptions):
                 
    Number of    
    Shares   Value at
    Vesting   Grant
at IRR of at least 8.5%
    68,116     $ 885  
at IRR of at least 10.5%
    136,239     $ 1,771  
at IRR of at least 12.5%
    204,361     $ 2,656  
     Due to the fact that the IRR for the three year period ending December 31, 2010 could not be determined at the time of grants, the Company estimated that the most likely outcome is the achievement of the mid-point IRR level. As a result, the total compensation expense to be recorded for the restricted stock unit awards is $1,755 assuming a total of 135,027 units will vest at the end of the four year period, using a forfeiture rate ranging from zero to 2%. If during the service period, additional information becomes available to lead the Company to believe a different IRR level will be achieved for the three year period ending December 31, 2010, the Company will reassess the number of units that will vest and adjust its compensation expense accordingly on a prospective basis over the remaining service period. The fair value of the number of units expected to vest was determined based on the market value of Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s stock on the dates of grant, which ranged from $12.89 to $13.14 per share. The Company recorded compensation expense of $326 related to these awards during the year ended December 31, 2008. As of December 31, 2008, the remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to these restricted stock unit awards was $1,429 and the weighted average period over which this remaining compensation expense will be recognized is approximately 3.25 years.

     The Company had $15,500 and $17,523 of gross unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties as of December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2008, respectively. Of these amounts, $10,768 and $13,851 represent the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that if recognized would impact the effective income tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively. The Company had $3,007 and $3,547 accrued for interest and/or penalties as of December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively.
     The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and multiple state and foreign jurisdictions, and the Company is routinely under audit by many different tax authorities. The Company believes that its accrual for tax liabilities is adequate for all open audit years based on its assessment of many factors including past experience and interpretations of tax law. This assessment relies on estimates and assumptions and may involve a series of complex judgments about future events. The Company is no longer subject to income tax audits from the Internal Revenue Service for years before 2002. The Company is no longer subject to state income tax examinations by tax authorities in its major state jurisdictions for years before 2002. The Company is no longer subject to non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities in its major non-U.S. tax jurisdictions for years before 2003.
     The Company is currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service for the 2002-2005 tax years. It is reasonably possible that the 2002-2004 audits could be completed within the next twelve months. This completion could result in a decrease in the Company’s total unrecognized benefits of approximately $10,000, which includes approximately $2,000 of accrued interest. As a result, the Company reclassified approximately $10,000 to current FIN48 liability during the year ended December 31, 2008.
21. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
     Leases — The Company conducts a significant part of its theatre operations in leased properties under noncancelable operating and capital leases with terms generally ranging from 10 to 25 years. In addition to the minimum annual lease payments, some of the leases provide for contingent rentals based on operating results of the theatre and most require the payment of taxes, insurance and other costs applicable to the property. The Company can renew, at its option, a substantial portion of the leases at defined or then market rental rates for various periods. Some leases also provide for escalating rent payments throughout the lease term. A liability for deferred lease expenses of $19,235 and $23,371 at December 31, 2007 and 2008, respectively, has been provided to account for lease expenses on a straight-line basis, where lease payments are not made on such a basis. Rent expense was as follows:

Stock, Timothy Warner, Robert Copple and Michael Cavalier and effective December 15, 2008, Cinemark Holdings, Inc. entered into new employment agreements with Lee Roy Mitchell, Rob Carmony, and John Lundin. Collectively these new employment agreements are herein referred to as the “New Employment Agreements”. Each of Messrs. Mitchell, Stock, Warner, Copple, Cavalier, Carmony and Lundin had an employment agreement with Cinemark, Inc., which became effective as of March 12, 2004 (the “Original Employment Agreements”).

In addition, Messers. Mitchell, Stock, Warner, Copple, Cavalier, Carmony and Lundin are eligible to receive annual cash incentive bonuses upon the Company meeting certain performance targets established by Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s Compensation Committee for the fiscal year. Messers. Mitchell, Stock, Warner, Copple, Cavalier, Carmony and Lundin qualify for the Company’s 401(k) matching program and are also entitled to certain additional benefits including life insurance and disability insurance. The New Employment Agreements provide for severance payments upon termination of employment, the amount and nature of which depends upon the reason for the termination of employment.

     Letters of Credit and Collateral — The Company had outstanding letters of credit of $69, in connection with property and liability insurance coverage, at December 31, 2007 and 2008.
     Litigation and Litigation Settlements — DOJ Litigation — In March 1999, the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) filed suit in the U.S. District Court, Northern District of Ohio, Eastern Division, against the Company alleging certain violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (the “ADA”) relating to the Company’s wheelchair seating arrangements and seeking remedial action. An order granting summary judgment to the Company was issued in November 2001. The Department of Justice appealed the district court’s ruling with the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals. On November 7, 2003, the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals reversed the summary judgment and sent the case back to the district court for further review without deciding whether wheelchair seating at the Company’s theatres comply with the ADA. The Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals also stated that if the district court found that the theatres did not comply with the ADA, any remedial action should be prospective only. The Company and the United States have resolved this lawsuit. A consent order was entered by the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, Eastern Division, on November 15, 2004. This consent order fully and finally resolves the United States v. Cinemark USA, Inc. lawsuit, and all claims asserted against the Company in that lawsuit have been dismissed with prejudice. Under the consent order, the Company will make modifications to wheelchair seating locations in fourteen stadium-style movie theatres, and spacing and companion seating modifications at 67 auditoriums at other stadium-styled movie theatres. These modifications must be completed by November 2009. Upon completion of these modifications, such theatres will comply with all existing and pending ADA wheelchair seating requirements, and no further modifications will be required to the Company’s other stadium-style movie theatres in the United States existing on the date of the consent order. Under the consent order, the DOJ approved the seating plans for nine stadium-styled movie theatres under construction. The Company and the DOJ have also created a safe harbor framework for the Company to construct all of its future stadium-style movie theatres. The DOJ has stipulated that all theatres built in compliance with the consent order will comply with the wheelchair seating requirements of the ADA. The Company believes that its obligations under the consent order are not material in the aggregate to its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
     From time to time, the Company is involved in other various legal proceedings arising from the ordinary course of its business operations, such as personal injury claims, employment matters, landlord-tenant disputes and contractual disputes, some of which are covered by insurance. The Company believes its potential liability with respect to proceedings currently pending is not material, individually or in the aggregate, to the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
22. SEGMENTS
     At December 31, 2008, the Company managed its international market and its U.S. market as separate reportable operating segments. The international segment consists of operations in Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Peru, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama and Colombia. The U.S. segment includes U.S. and Canada operations. Each segment’s revenue is derived from admissions and concession sales and other ancillary revenues, primarily screen advertising. The primary measure of segment profit and loss the Company uses to evaluate performance and allocate its resources is Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in the reconciliation table below. The Company’s management evaluates the performance of its assets on a consolidated basis.

Of these 25 leases, 21 have fixed minimum annual rent in an aggregate amount of approximately $22,258. The four leases without minimum annual rent have rent based upon a specified percentage of gross sales as defined in the lease with no minimum annual rent. For the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, the Company paid approximately $349, $1,529 and $1,333, respectively, in percentage rent for these four leases.
     The Company entered into an amended and restated profit participation agreement on March 12, 2004 with its CEO, Alan Stock, which became effective on April 2, 2004, and amended the profit participation agreement with Mr. Stock in effect since May 2002.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Members of
National CineMedia, LLC
Centennial, CO
     We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of National CineMedia, LLC (the “Company”) as of January 1, 2009 and December 27, 2007, and the related statements of operations, members’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the year ended January 1, 2009, the period February 13, 2007 through December 27, 2007, the period December 29, 2006 through February 12, 2007, and for the year ended December 28, 2006. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
     We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
     In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of January 1, 2009 and December 27, 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended January 1, 2009, the period February 13, 2007 through December 27, 2007, the period December 29, 2006 through February 12, 2007, and for the year ended December 28, 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NATIONAL CINEMEDIA LLC
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
     Formation of Business
     National CineMedia, LLC (“NCM LLC” or “the Company” commenced operations on April 1, 2005 and operates the largest digital in-theatre network in North America, allowing NCM to distribute advertising, business meeting, and Fathom event services under long-term exhibitor services agreements (“ESAs”) with American Multi-Cinema, Inc. (“AMC”), a wholly owned subsidiary of AMC Entertainment, Inc. (“AMCE”), Regal Cinemas, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Regal Entertainment Group (“Regal”), and Cinemark USA, Inc. (“Cinemark USA”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Cinemark Holdings, Inc. (“Cinemark”). AMC, Regal and Cinemark and their affiliates are referred to in this document as “founding members”. NCM LLC also provides such services to certain third-party theater circuits under multi-year network affiliate agreements, which expire at various dates.
     NCM LLC was formed through the combination of the operations of National Cinema Network, Inc. (“NCN”), a wholly owned subsidiary of AMCE, and Regal CineMedia Corporation (“RCM”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Regal. All assets contributed to and liabilities assumed by NCM LLC were recorded on NCM LLC’s accounting records in the amounts as reflected on the Members’ historic accounting records, based on the application of accounting principles for the formation of a joint venture under Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 98—4, Accounting by a Joint Venture for Businesses Received at its Formation. Although legally structured as a limited liability company, NCM LLC was considered a joint venture for accounting purposes given the joint control provisions of the operating agreement among the members, consistent with Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 18, The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock. Cinemark became a founding member on July 15, 2005.
     Initial Public Offering and Related Transactions
     On February 13, 2007, National CineMedia, Inc. (“NCM, Inc.” or “managing member”), a Company formed by NCM LLC and incorporated in the State of Delaware with the sole purpose of becoming a member and sole manager of NCM LLC, closed its initial public offering (“IPO”). NCM, Inc. used the net proceeds from its IPO to purchase a 44.8% interest in NCM LLC, paying NCM LLC $746.1 million, which included reimbursement to NCM LLC for expenses the Company advanced related to the NCM, Inc. IPO and paying the founding members $78.5 million for a portion of the NCM LLC units owned by them. NCM LLC paid $686.3 million of the funds received from NCM, Inc. to the founding members as consideration for their agreement to modify the then-existing ESAs. Proceeds received by NCM LLC from NCM, Inc. of $59.8 million, together with $709.7 million net proceeds from NCM LLC’s new senior secured credit facility (see Note 7), entered into concurrently with the completion of NCM, Inc.’s IPO were used to redeem $769.5 million in NCM LLC preferred units held by the founding members. The preferred units were created immediately prior to the NCM, Inc. IPO in a non-cash recapitalization of each membership unit into one common unit and one preferred unit. Immediately prior to this non-cash recapitalization, the existing common units and employee unit options (see Note 8)were split on a 44,291-to-1 basis. All unit and per unit amounts in these financial statements reflect the impact of this split.
     At January 1, 2009, NCM LLC had 99,419,620 membership units outstanding, of which 42,109,966 (42.4%) were owned by NCM, Inc., 24,903,259 (25.0%) were owned by RCM, 18,414,743 (18.5%) were owned by AMC, and 13,991,652 (14.1%) were owned by Cinemark.
     In connection with the completion of the NCM, Inc.’s IPO, NCM, Inc. and the founding members entered into a third amended and restated limited liability company operating agreement of NCM LLC (“LLC Operating Agreement”). Under the LLC Operating Agreement, NCM, Inc. became a member and the sole manager of NCM LLC. As the sole manager, NCM, Inc. is able to control all of the day to day business affairs and decision-making of NCM LLC without the approval of any other member. NCM, Inc. cannot be removed as manager of NCM LLC. NCM LLC entered into a management services agreement with NCM, Inc. pursuant to which NCM, Inc. agrees to provide certain specific management services to NCM LLC, including those services typically provided by the individuals serving in the positions of president and chief executive officer, president of sales and chief marketing officer, executive vice president and chief financial officer, executive vice president and chief technology and operations officer and executive vice president and general counsel. In exchange for the services, NCM LLC reimburses NCM, Inc. for compensation and other expenses of

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
the officers and for certain out-of-pocket costs (see Note 6). NCM LLC also provides administrative and support services to NCM, Inc. such as office facilities, equipment, supplies, payroll and accounting and financial reporting. The management services agreement also provides that NCM LLC employees may participate in the NCM, Inc. equity incentive plan (see Note 8). NCM LLC will indemnify NCM Inc. for any losses arising from NCM Inc.’s performance under the management services agreement, except that NCM Inc. will indemnify NCM LLC for any losses caused by NCM Inc.’s willful misconduct or gross negligence.
     Under the amended and restated ESAs with the founding members, subject to limited exceptions, NCM LLC is the exclusive provider of advertising services to the founding members for a 30-year term (with a five-year right of first refusal commencing one year before the end of the term) beginning February 13, 2007 and meetings and event services to the founding members for an initial five-year term, with an automatic five-year renewal providing certain financial tests are met. In exchange for the right to provide these services to the founding members, NCM LLC is required to pay to the founding members a theatre access fee which is a specified calculation based on the attendance at the founding member theatres and the number of digital screens in founding member theatres. Prior to the NCM, Inc. IPO, NCM LLC paid to the founding members a percentage of NCM LLC’s advertising revenue as advertising circuit share. Upon the completion of the NCM, Inc. IPO, the founding members assigned to NCM LLC all “legacy contracts”, which are generally contracts for advertising sold by the founding members prior to the formation of NCM LLC but which were unfulfilled at the date of formation. In addition, the founding members made additional time available for sale by NCM LLC, subject to a first right to purchase the time, if needed, by the founding members to fulfill advertising obligations with their in-theatre beverage concessionaries. NCM, Inc. also entered into employment agreements with five executive officers to carry out obligations entered into pursuant to a management services agreement between NCM, Inc. and NCM LLC.
     Basis of Presentation
     The Company has prepared its financial statements and related notes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
     The results of operations for the period ended December 27, 2007 are presented in two periods, reflecting operations prior to and subsequent to the NCM, Inc. IPO. The period from December 29, 2006 through February 12, 2007 is referred to as the “2007 pre-IPO period”. The period from February 13, 2007 through December 27, 2007 is referred to as the “2007 post-IPO period”. Separate periods have been presented because there were significant changes at the time of the NCM, Inc. IPO including modifications to the ESAs and related expenses thereunder, and significant changes to revenue arrangements and contracts with the founding members. The financial statements for both the 2007 pre-IPO period and 2007 post-IPO period give effect to allocations of revenues and expenses made using relative percentages of founding member attendance or days in each period, discrete events and other methods management considered a reasonable reflection of the results for such periods.
     The Company has established various accounting policies that govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America in the preparation and presentation of NCM LLC’s financial statements. Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments, assumptions and estimates by management that have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities, which management considers critical accounting policies. The judgments, assumptions and estimates used by management are based on historical experience, knowledge of the accounts and other factors, which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances and are evaluated on an ongoing basis. Because of the nature of the judgments and assumptions made by management, actual results could differ from these judgments and estimates, which could have a material impact on the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the results of operations of NCM LLC. As a result of the various related-party agreements discussed above and in Note 6, the operating results as presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that would have occurred if all agreements were with non-related third parties.
     The founding members received all of the proceeds NCM LLC received from the NCM, Inc. and the date of NCM, Inc.’s IPO and the related issuance of debt, except for amounts needed to pay out-of-pocket costs of the financings and other expenses, and $10.0 million to repay outstanding amounts under NCM LLC’s then-existing revolving line of credit agreement. In conformity with accounting guidance of the SEC concerning monetary consideration paid to promoters, such as the founding members, in exchange for property conveyed by the promoters, and because the founding members had no cost basis in the ESAs, all payments to the founding members with the proceeds of the managing member’s IPO

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
and related debt, amounting to approximately $1.456 billion, have been accounted for as distributions, except for the payments to liquidate accounts payable to the founding members arising from the ESAs.
     Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
     Accounting Period—The Company operates on a 52-week fiscal year, with the fiscal year ending on the first Thursday after December 25, which, in certain years, results in a 53-week year, as was the case for fiscal year 2008.
     Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include those related to the reserve for uncollectible accounts receivable, deferred revenue, equity-based compensation and the valuation of investments in absence of market data. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
     Revenue Recognition—Advertising revenue and administrative fees from legacy contracts are recognized in the period in which an advertising contract is fulfilled against the contracted theatre attendees. Advertising revenue is recorded net of make-good provisions to account for delivered attendance that is less than contracted attendance. When remaining delivered attendance is provided in subsequent periods, that portion of the revenue earned is recognized in that period. Deferred revenue refers to the unearned portion of advertising contracts. All deferred revenue is classified as a current liability. Meetings and events revenue is recognized in the period in which the event is held. Legacy contracts are advertising contracts with the founding members prior to the formation of NCM LLC, which were not assigned to NCM LLC until the IPO was completed. Administrative fees earned by the Company prior to the IPO for its services in fulfilling the legacy contracts were based on a percentage of legacy contract revenue (32% during 2006 and the 2007 pre-IPO period).
     Operating Costs—Advertising-related operating costs primarily include personnel and other costs related to advertising fulfillment, and to a lesser degree, production costs of non-digital advertising, and payments due to unaffiliated theatres circuits under the network affiliate agreements.
     Meeting and event operating costs include equipment rental, catering, movie tickets acquired primarily from the founding members, revenue share under the amended and restated ESAs and other direct costs of the meeting or event.
     In the 2007 pre-IPO period and prior periods, circuit share costs were fees payable to the founding members for the right to exhibit advertisements within the theatres, based on a percentage of advertising revenue. In the 2007 post-IPO period and subsequent periods, under the amended and restated ESAs, a payment to the founding members of a theatre access fee, in lieu of circuit share expense, comprised of a payment per theatre attendee and a payment per digital screen, both of which escalate over time, is reflected in expense.
     Network costs include personnel, satellite bandwidth, repairs, and other costs of maintaining and operating the digital network and preparing advertising and other content for transmission across the digital network. These costs relate primarily to the advertising business and to a lesser extent to the meetings and events business.
     Leases—The Company leases various office facilities under operating leases with terms ranging from month-to-month to 8 years. We calculate straight-line rent expense over the initial lease term and renewals that are reasonably assured.
     Advertising Costs—Costs related to advertising and other promotional expenditures are expensed as incurred. Due to the nature of our business, we have an insignificant amount of advertising costs included in selling and marketing costs on the statement of operations.
     Cash and Cash Equivalents—All highly liquid debt instruments and investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less are classified as cash equivalents. Periodically these are cash balances in a bank in excess of the federally insured limits or in the form of a money market demand account with a major financial institution.
     Restricted Cash—At January 1, 2009 and December 27, 2007, other non-current assets included restricted cash of $0.3, which secures a letter of credit used as a lease deposit on NCM LLC’s New York office.

     Receivables— Trade accounts receivable are uncollateralized and represent a large number of geographically dispersed debtors. Refer to Note 2. Bad debts are provided for using the allowance for doubtful accounts method based on historical experience and management’s evaluation of outstanding receivables at the end of the period. Receivables are written off when management determines amounts are uncollectible. Estimating the amount of allowance for doubtful accounts requires significant judgment and the use of estimates related to the amount and timing of estimated losses based on historical loss experience, consideration of current economic trends and conditions and debtor-specific factors, all of which may be susceptible to significant changes. To the extent actual outcomes differ from management estimates, additional provision for bad debt could be required that could adversely affect earnings or financial position in future periods.
     Long-lived Assets—Property and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation or amortization. Refer to Note 3. Major renewals and improvements are capitalized, while replacements, maintenance, and repairs that do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are expensed currently. In general, the equipment associated with the digital network that is located within the theatre is owned by the founding members, while equipment outside the theatre is owned by the Company. The Company records depreciation and amortization using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
     
Equipment
  4-10 years
Computer hardware and software
  3-5 years
Leasehold improvements
  Lesser of lease term or asset life
     We account for the costs of software and web site development costs developed or obtained for internal use in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (“SOP”) 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use and EITF 00-2, Accounting for Web Site Development Costs. The SOP and EITF requires the capitalization of certain costs incurred in developing or obtaining software for internal use. The majority of our software costs and web site development costs, which are included in equipment, are depreciated over three to five years. As of January 1, 2009 and December 27, 2007, we had a net book value of $11.8 million and $9.3 million, respectively, of capitalized software and web site development costs. We recorded approximately $4.9 million, $2.8 million, $0.3 million and $1.9 million for the year ended January 1, 2009, the 2007 post-IPO period, 2007 pre-IPO period and the year ended December 28, 2006, respectively, in depreciation expense.
     Construction in progress includes costs relating to installations of our equipment into affiliate theatres. Assets under construction are not depreciated until placed into service.
     Intangible assets consist of contractual rights and are stated at cost, net of accumulated amortization. Refer to Note 4. The Company records amortization using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the intangibles.
     We assess impairment of long-lived assets pursuant with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets annually. This includes determining if certain triggering events have occurred that could affect the value of an asset. Thus far, none of the above triggering events has resulted in any material impairment charges.
     Amounts Due to/from Founding Members—In the 2007 pre-IPO period and prior periods, amounts due to/from founding members included circuit share costs and cost reimbursements, net of the administrative fees earned on Legacy contracts. Amounts due to/from founding members in the 2007 post-IPO period and subsequent periods include amounts due for the theatre access fee, offset by a receivable for advertising time purchased by the founding members, as well as revenue share earned for meetings and events plus any amounts outstanding under other contractually obligated payments. Payments to or received from the founding members against outstanding balances are made monthly.
     Amounts Due to/from Managing Member—In 2008 and the 2007 post-IPO period, amounts due to/from managing member include amounts due under the LLC Operating Agreement and other contractually obligated payments. Payments to or received from the managing member against outstanding balances are made periodically.

(1)   During 2007, NCM LLC invested $7.0 million of cash in 6% convertible preferred stock and related option on the common stock of IdeaCast, Inc. (“IdeaCast”), a start-up company that operates an advertising network in fitness centers and health clubs throughout the United States. The preferred stock is accounted for as an investment in debt securities per SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, due to the provisions in the agreement, which give the Company a mandatory redemption right five years after the date of investment. The securities are not held for trading purposes and are therefore by default classified as available-for-sale even though it is not the Company’s intent to sell these securities. There are no marketplace indicators of value that management can use to determine the fair value of the investment. Until the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company based its recurring estimated fair value of the investment in IdeaCast on a discounted cash flow model that probability weights IdeaCast’s potential future cash flows under various scenarios and management’s judgment, which is based in part on communications with IdeaCast and their lender. During the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company recorded a full impairment to the value of the investment and the carrying value was adjusted to zero due to IdeaCast’s defaults on its senior debt during the fourth quarter of 2008 and resulting illiquidity. The Company determined the impairment was other-than-temporary and the unrealized loss was reported as an impairment loss in the statement of operations since the fair value was determined to be significantly below cost and recoverability was deemed unlikely. The key factors identified by management in making these assessments and determining the amounts were events of default on IdeaCast’s convertible debt that emerged after the fourth quarter 2008 IdeaCast operating results were analyzed and after IdeaCast failed to make a scheduled debt service payment and ongoing discussions with the convertible debt lender. Refer to Note 10 for additional details.

(2)   In February 2007, NCM LLC has entered into interest rate swap agreements with four counterparties, which qualified for and were designated as a cash flow hedge against interest rate exposure on $550.0 million of the variable rate debt obligations under the senior secured credit facility in accordance with SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended by SFAS No. 138. The interest rate swap agreements have the effect of converting a portion of the Company’s variable rate debt to a fixed rate of 6.734%.
     On September 15, 2008, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. (“Lehman”) filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the federal Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
LLC’s interest rate swaps, and Lehman is a guarantor of LBSF’s obligations under such swap. NCM LLC notified LBSF on September 18, 2008 that, as a result of the bankruptcy of Lehman, an event of default had occurred under the swap with respect to which LBSF was the defaulting party. As a result, as permitted under the terms of NCM LLC’s swap agreement with LBSF, the Company withheld interest rate swap payments of $1.5 million that were due to LBSF. As of January 1, 2009 the interest rate swap agreement had not been terminated. On October 3, 2008, LBSF also filed for Chapter 11 protection, which constituted another default by LBSF under the swap. To the Company’s knowledge, LBSF has neither communicated its intent, nor has it taken any action in bankruptcy court to assume or reject its swap agreement with NCM LLC. In addition, while the bankruptcy court has authorized LBSF to assign certain of its hedges that have not been terminated under certain circumstances, we have not received any notice that Lehman has assigned, or has entered into any negotiations to assign its swap agreement with NCM LLC. As of January 1, 2009, NCM LLC’s interest rate swaps liability was $87.7 million, of which $21.9 million is related to the LBSF swap.
     Both at inception and on an on-going basis the Company performs an effectiveness test using the hypothetical derivative method. The fair values of the interest rate swaps with the counterparties other than LBSF (representing notional amounts of $412.5 million associated with a like amount of the variable rate debt) are recorded on the Company’s balance sheet as a liability with the change in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income since the instruments other than LBSF were determined to be perfectly effective at January 1, 2007 and December 27, 2007. There were no amounts reclassified into current earnings due to ineffectiveness during the periods presented other than as described below.
     The Company performed an effectiveness test for the swaps with LBSF as of September 14, 2008, the day immediately prior to the default date, and determined they were effective on that date. As a result, the fair values of the interest rate swap on that date was recorded as a liability with an offsetting amount recorded in other comprehensive income. Cash flow hedge accounting was discontinued on September 15, 2008 due to the event of default and the inability of the Company to continue to demonstrate the swap would be effective. The Company continues to record the interest rate swap with LBSF at fair value with any change in the fair value recorded in the statement of operations. During the period from September 15, 2008 to January 1, 2009, there was a $13.8 million increase in the fair value of the liability and the Company recorded an offsetting debit to interest expense. In accordance with SFAS No. 133, the net derivative loss as of September 14, 2008 related to the discontinued cash flow hedge with LBSF shall continue to be reported in accumulated other comprehensive income unless it is probable that the forecasted transaction will not occur by the end of the originally specified time period. Accordingly, the net derivative loss will be amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the interest rate swap through February 13, 2015. The amount amortized during the year ended January 1, 2009 was $0.4 million. The Company estimates approximately $1.3 million will be amortized to interest expense in the next 12 months.
     The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap is based on dealer quotes, and represents an estimate of the amount the Company would receive or pay to terminate the agreements taking into consideration various factors, including current interest rates and the forward yield curve for 3-month LIBOR.

These debt issuance costs are being amortized over the terms of the underlying obligation and are included in interest expense. For the year ended January 1, 2009, 2007 post-IPO period, 2007 pre-IPO period and the year ended December 28, 2006 we amortized $1.9 million, $1.6 million, $0.0 million and $0.0 million of debt issuance costs, respectively.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
     Other Long-Terms Assets and Liabilities—On April 29, 2008, NCM LLC, IdeaCast, the IdeaCast lender and certain of its stockholders agreed to a financial restructuring of IdeaCast. Among other things, the restructuring resulted in the reduction of the price at which the preferred stock held by NCM LLC can be converted into common stock; the lender being granted an option to “put,” or require NCM LLC to purchase, up to $10 million of the funded convertible debt at par, on or after December 31, 2010 through March 31, 2011; NCM LLC being granted an option to “call,” or require the lender to sell to NCM LLC up to $10 million of funded convertible debt at par, at any time before the put is exercised in whole; and an amendment to the preexisting option to acquire additional IdeaCast common stock. The put is accounted for under FIN No. 45 (as amended), Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. Refer to Note 10 for additional details. The estimated fair value of the call of $2.4 million was recorded to other long-term assets and the estimated fair value of the put of $2.4 million was recorded in other long-term liabilities during the second quarter of 2008. The Company based its estimated fair value of the call and put on a discounted cash flow model that probability weights IdeaCast’s business potential future cash flows under various scenarios, including the likelihood of the call, put or option being executed and management’s judgment, which is based in part on communications with IdeaCast and their lender. During the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company recorded an impairment to the value of the call and the carrying value was adjusted to zero since the Company determined that the put was probable. The Company determined the impairment was other-then-temporary and the unrealized loss was reported as a non-operating loss in the statement of operations since the fair value was determined to be significantly below cost and the realizable value is not equal to or greater than the carrying value.
     Fair Value of Financial Instruments—The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, accrued expenses and the revolving credit facility as reported in the Company’s balance sheets approximate their fair values due to their short maturity or floating rate terms, as applicable. The carrying amounts and fair value of interest rate swap agreements are the same since the Company accounts for these instruments at fair value. As the Company’s term loan does not have an active market, the Company has estimated the fair value of the term loan to be $514.8 million based on our analysis of current credit market conditions. The carrying value of the term loan was $725.00 million as of January 1, 2009.
     Share-Based Compensation—Stock-based employee compensation is accounted for at fair value under SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment. The Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) on December 30, 2005 prospectively for new equity based grants, as there were no equity based grants prior to the date of adoption. The determination of fair value of options requires that management make complex estimates and judgments. The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes option price model to estimate the fair value of the options, which model requires estimates of various factors used, including expected life of options, risk free interest rate, expected volatility and dividend yield. Refer to Note 8.
     Income Taxes—As a limited liability company, NCM LLC’s taxable income or loss is allocated to the founding members and managing member and, therefore, no provision or liability for income taxes is included in the financial statements.
     Recent Accounting Pronouncements
     In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The new standard changes the manner of presentation and related disclosures of the fair values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses. It also provides more information about an entity’s liquidity by requiring disclosure of derivative features that are credit risk related. SFAS No. 161 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company is evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 161 on its financial statements.
     In April 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. FAS 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets, which improves the consistency of the useful life of a recognized intangible asset among various pronouncements. FSP SFAS No. 142-3 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company is evaluating the impact of FSP SFAS No. 142-3 on its financial statements.
     In June 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. EITF 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating Securities, which addresses whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior to vesting and, therefore, need to be included in the earnings allocation in computing earnings per share under the two-class method. FSP No. EITF 03-6-1 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company is evaluating the impact of FSP No. EITF 03-6-1 on its financial statements.

4. INTANGIBLE ASSETS
     During 2008, NCM LLC issued 2,544,949 common membership units to its founding members in connection with its rights of exclusive access to net new theatres and attendees added by the founding members to NCM LLC’s network and 2,913,754 common membership units to Regal in connection with the closing of its acquisition of Consolidated Theatres. The Company recorded an intangible asset of $116.1 million representing the contractual rights. The Company based the

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
fair value of the intangibles on the fair value of the common membership units issued. The number of units issued to Regal assumed that NCM LLC would have immediate access to the Consolidated Theatres for sales of advertising. However, Consolidated Theatres has a pre-existing advertising agreement. Accordingly, Regal makes cash integration payments to NCM LLC which will continue through January 2011 to account for the lack of access, which are recorded as a reduction of the intangible asset. As of January 1, 2009, $2.8 million has been applied to the intangible asset.
     Pursuant to SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, the intangible asset has a finite useful life and the Company began to amortize the asset related to the common membership units in 2008 over the remaining useful life corresponding with the ESAs. Amortization of the asset related to Consolidated Theatres will not begin until after January 2011 since the Company will not have access to on-screen advertising in the Consolidated Theatres until the run-out of their existing on—screen advertising agreement. The weighted-average amortization period is 29 years.

revenue related to the beverage concessionaire agreements for the year ended January 1, 2009 and the 2007 post-IPO period is $43.3 million and $40.9 million, respectively. In addition, the Company makes payments to the founding members for use of their screens and theatres for its meetings and events business. These payments are at rates (percentage of event revenue) included in the ESAs based on the nature of the event. Payments to the founding members for these events totaled $6.0 million and $3.8 million for the year ended January 1, 2009 and the 2007 post-IPO period, respectively.
     Also, pursuant to the terms of the LLC Operating Agreement in place since the close of the IPO, NCM LLC is required to make mandatory distributions to its members of available cash, as defined in the NCM LLC Operating Agreement, on a quarterly basis.

     On January 26, 2006, AMC acquired the Loews Cineplex Entertainment Inc. (“AMC Loews”) theatre circuit. The Loews screen integration agreement, effective as of January 5, 2007 and amended and restated as of February 13, 2007, between NCM LLC and AMC, commits AMC to cause substantially all of the theatres it acquired from Loews to be included in the NCM digital network in accordance with the ESAs on June 1, 2008. In accordance with the Loews screen integration agreement, prior to June 1, 2008 AMC paid the Company amounts based on an agreed-upon calculation to reflect cash amounts that approximated what NCM LLC would have generated if the Company sold on-screen advertising in the Loews theatre chain on an exclusive basis. These AMC Loews payments were made on a quarterly basis in arrears through May 31, 2008, with the exception of Star Theatres, which will be paid through March 2009 in accordance with certain run-out provisions. For the year ended January 1, 2009 and the 2007 post-IPO period, the AMC Loews payment was $4.7 million (including Star Theatres) and $11.2 million, respectively. At January 1, 2009, $0.4 million was included in the due to/from founding members. The AMC Loews payment was recorded directly to NCM LLC’s members’ equity account.
     On April 30, 2008, Regal acquired Consolidated Theatres. Regal must make payments pursuant to the ESAs on a quarterly basis in arrears through January 2011 in accordance with certain run-out provisions. For the year ended January 1, 2009, the Consolidated Theatres payment was $2.8 million, of which $1.2 million was included in the due to/from founding members. The Consolidated Theatres payment was recorded as a reduction of the intangible asset that was created in connection with the common membership units issued to Regal upon the closing of its acquisition of Consolidated Theatres (see Note 4).

     NCM LLC’s administrative services fee was earned at a rate of 32% of the $16.8 million of legacy contract value for the year ended December 28, 2006. At the closing of the IPO, the founding members entered into amended and restated ESAs, which, among other things, amended the circuit share structure in favor of the theatre access fee structure and assigned all remaining legacy contracts to NCM LLC.
     Pursuant to the agreements entered into at the completion of the IPO, amounts owed to the founding members through the date of the IPO of $50.8 million were paid by NCM LLC on March 15, 2007.
     Other —During the year ended January 1, 2009, the 2007 post-IPO period, the 2007 pre-IPO period and the year ended December 28, 2006, AMC, Cinemark and Regal purchased $2.3 million, $1.4 million, $0.1 million and $2.1 million, respectively, of NCM LLC’s advertising inventory for their own use. The value of such purchases are calculated by reference to NCM LLC’s advertising rate card and is included in advertising revenue with a percentage of such amounts returned by NCM LLC to the founding members as advertising circuit share during the 2007 pre-IPO period and the year ended December 28, 2006.
     Included in meetings and events operating costs is $1.8 million, $3.3 million, $0.2 million and $4.1 million for the year ended January 1, 2009, the 2007 post-IPO period, the 2007 pre-IPO period and the year December 28, 2006, respectively, related to purchases of movie tickets and concession products from the founding members primarily for resale to NCM LLC’s customers.
     IdeaCast — NCM LLC and IdeaCast entered into a shared services agreement, which allows for cross-marketing and certain services to be provided between the companies at rates, which will be determined on an arms length basis. The services provided by or to IdeaCast for the year ended January 1, 2009 and the 2007 post-IPO period were not material to NCM.
     RCI Unit Option Plan —During the year ended January 1, 2009, the 2007 post-IPO period, the 2007 pre-IPO period and the year ended December 28, 2006, severance expense and the related capital contribution recognized for amounts under the Regal Unit Option Plan were $0.5 million, $1.5 million, $0.4 million and $4.2 million, respectively. Since this severance plan provides for payments over future periods that are contingent upon continued employment with the Company, the cost of the severance plan is being recorded as an expense over the remaining required service periods. As the payments under the plan are being funded by Regal, Regal is credited with a capital contribution at NCM LLC equal to this severance plan expense. The Company records the expense as a separate line item in the statements of operations. The amount recorded is not allocated to advertising operating costs, network costs, selling and marketing costs and administrative costs because the recorded expense is associated with the past performance of Regal’s common stock market value rather than current period performance.
     National CineMedia, Inc. —Pursuant to the LLC Operating Agreement, as the sole manager of NCM LLC, NCM, Inc. provides certain specific management services to NCM LLC, including those services of the positions of president and chief executive officer, president of sales and chief marketing officer, executive vice president and chief financial officer, executive vice president and chief technology and operations officer and executive vice president and general counsel. In exchange for the services, NCM LLC reimburses NCM, Inc. for compensation and other expenses of the

officers and for certain out-of-pocket costs. During the year ended January 1, 2009 and the 2007 post-IPO period, NCM LLC paid NCM, Inc. $9.7 million and $9.2 million, respectively, for these services and expenses. The payments for estimated management services related to employment are made one month in advance. At January 1, 2009 and December 27, 2007, $0.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively, has been paid in advance and is reflected as prepaid management fees to managing member in the accompanying financial statements. NCM LLC also provides administrative and support services to NCM, Inc. such as office facilities, equipment, supplies, payroll and accounting and financial reporting at no charge. Based on the limited activities of NCM, Inc. as a standalone entity, the Company does not believe such unreimbursed costs are significant. The management services agreement also provides that NCM LLC employees may participate in the NCM, Inc. equity incentive plan (see Note 8).
     Also, pursuant to the terms of the NCM LLC Operating Agreement in place since the close of the NCM, Inc. IPO, the Company is required to made mandatory distributions to the members of available cash, as defined in the NCM LLC Operating Agreement, on a quarterly basis. The available cash distribution to NCM, Inc. for the year ended January 1, 2009 and the 2007 post-IPO period is $55.5 million and $53.3 million, respectively.

7. BORROWINGS
     Revolving Credit Agreement—On March 22, 2006, NCM LLC entered into a bank-funded $20.0 million Revolving Credit Agreement, of which $2.0 million could have been utilized in support of letters of credit. The revolving credit agreement was collateralized by trade receivables, and borrowings under the revolving credit agreement were limited to 85% of eligible trade receivables, as defined. The revolving credit agreement bore interest, at NCM LLC’s option, at either an adjusted Eurodollar rate or the base rate plus, in each case, an applicable margin. Outstanding borrowings at December 28, 2006, were $10.0 million. The revolving credit agreement was repaid and cancelled on February 13, 2007.
     Senior Secured Credit Facility— On February 13, 2007, concurrently with the closing of the IPO of NCM, Inc., NCM LLC entered into a senior secured credit facility with a group of lenders. The facility consists of a six-year $80.0 million revolving credit facility and an eight-year, $725.0 million term loan facility. The revolving credit facility portion is available, subject to certain conditions, for general corporate purposes of the Company in the ordinary course of business and for other transactions permitted under the credit agreement, and a portion is available for letters of credit. The obligations under the credit facility are secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of NCM LLC.
     The outstanding balance of the term loan facility at January 1, 2009 was $725.0 million. The outstanding balance under the revolving credit facility at January 1, 2009 was $74.0 million. As of January 1, 2009, the effective rate on the term loan was 6.01% including the effect of the interest rate swaps (both those accounted for as hedges and those not). The interest rate swaps hedged $550.0 million of the $725.0 million term loan at a fixed interest rate of 6.734% while the unhedged portion was at an interest rate of 3.75%. The weighted-average interest rate on the unhedged revolver was 3.19%. Commencing with the fourth fiscal quarter in fiscal year 2008, the applicable margin for the revolving credit facility will be determined quarterly and will be subject to adjustment based upon a consolidated net senior secured leverage ratio for NCM LLC and its subsidiaries (defined in the NCM LLC credit agreement as the ratio of secured funded debt less unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, over Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in the credit agreement). The senior secured credit facility also contains a number of covenants and financial ratio requirements, with which the Company was in compliance at January 1, 2009, including the consolidated net senior secured leverage ratio. As of January 1, 2009, our consolidated net senior secured leverage ratio was 3.9 times the covenant. amount of debt that is required to be hedged. The debt covenants require 50% of the term loan, or $362.5 million to be hedged at a fixed rate. As of January 1, 2009, the Company had approximately 76% hedged (57% without considering the LBSF portion of the hedge). Of the $550.0 million that is hedged, $137.5 million is with LBSF and is still in effect. However, the Company has notified LBSF of an event of default. While not required to be in compliance with its debt covenants, the Company is

evaluating whether to seek a replacement hedge for the LBSF portion. In addition, while the bankruptcy court has authorized LBSF to assign certain of its hedges that have not been terminated under certain circumstances, the Company has not received any notice that Lehman has assigned, or has entered into any negotiations to assign, its swap agreement with NCM LLC. See Note 1 for an additional discussion of the interest rate swaps.
     On September 15, 2008, Lehman filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the federal Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. NCM LLC has an aggregate revolving credit facility commitment of $80.0 million with a consortium of banks, including $20.0 million with Lehman Commercial Paper Inc. (“LCPI”), a subsidiary of Lehman. As of January 1, 2009, NCM LLC borrowed $14.0 million from LCPI under the revolving credit facility. LCPI failed to fund its undrawn commitment of $6.0 million. NCM LLC does not anticipate LCPI to fulfill its funding commitment; however, the Company’s cash flows have not been adversely impacted. Until the LCPI issues are resolved, NCM LLC is not anticipating repaying any of its revolver borrowings as it would effectively result in a permanent reduction of its revolving credit facility, to the extent of the LCPI commitments. In addition, while the bankruptcy court has authorized LCPI to resign as the administrative agent under the revolving credit facility, to the Company’s knowledge they have not yet done so.
     Future Maturities of Long-Term Borrowings—There are no scheduled annual maturities on the credit facility for the next five years and as of January 1, 2009; the next scheduled annual maturity on the outstanding credit facility of $799.0 million is after fiscal year 2012.
8. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
     On April 4, 2006, NCM LLC’s board of directors approved the NCM LLC 2006 Unit Option Plan, under which 1,131,728 units were outstanding as of December 28, 2006. Under certain circumstances, holders of unit options could put the options to NCM LLC for cash. As such, the Unit Option Plan was accounted for as a liability plan and the liability was measured at its fair value at each reporting date. The valuation of the liability was determined based on provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), and factored into the valuation that the options were granted in contemplation of an IPO. The Company used the estimated pricing of the IPO at the time of the grant to determine the equity value, for each unit underlying the options. The Unit Option Plan allowed for additional equity awards to be issued to outstanding option holders in the event of the occurrence of an IPO, with the purpose of the additional option awards or restricted units being to ensure that the economic value of outstanding unit options, as defined in the agreement, held just prior to an IPO was maintained by the option holder immediately after the offering.
     At the date of the NCM, Inc. IPO, the Company adopted the NCM, Inc. 2007 Equity Incentive Plan. The employees of NCM, Inc. and the employees of NCM LLC are eligible for participation in the Equity Incentive Plan. Under the Equity Incentive Plan, NCM, Inc. issued stock options on 1,589,625 shares of common stock to holders of outstanding unit options in substitution of the unit options and also issued 262,466 shares of restricted stock. In connection with the conversion at the date of the NCM, Inc. IPO, and pursuant to the antidilution adjustment terms of the Unit Option Plan, the exercise price and the number of shares of common stock subject to options held by the Company’s option holders were adjusted to prevent dilution and restore their economic position to that existing immediately before the NCM, Inc. IPO. The Equity Incentive Plan is treated as an equity plan under the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), and the existing liability under the Unit Option Plan at the end of the 2007 pre-IPO period of $2.3 million was reclassified to members’ equity at that date.
     As of January 1, 2009, there were 2,576,000 shares of common stock available for issuance or delivery under the Equity Incentive Plan. Options awarded under the Equity Incentive Plan are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of NCM, Inc. common stock on the date of the grant. Under the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123R, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation net of an estimated forfeiture rate, and therefore only recognizes stock-based compensation cost for those shares NCM, Inc. expects to vest over the requisite service period of the award. Options generally vest annually over a five-year period and have either 10-year or 15-year contractual terms. A forfeiture rate of 5% was estimated for all employees to reflect the potential separation of employees.
     The Company recognized $2.1 million, $1.9 million, $0.3 million and $1.9 million for the year ended January 1, 2009, the 2007 post-IPO period, the 2007 pre-IPO period and the year ended December 28, 2006, respectively, of share-based compensation expense for these options and $0.1 million and $0 were capitalized during the year ended January 1, 2009 and December 27, 2007, respectively. The recognized expense, including the equity based compensation costs of

NCM, Inc. employees is included in the operating results of NCM LLC. As of January 1, 2009, unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested options was approximately $7.2 million, which will be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of 3.38 years.
     The weighted average grant date fair value of granted options was $3.77 and $6.23 for the year ended January 1, 2009 and the 2007 post-IPO period. The intrinsic value of options exercised during the year ended January 1, 2009 was $0.2 million. During 2008, the amount of cash received on option exercises was $0.6 million. The total fair value of awards vested during the year ended January 1, 2009 was $3.9 million. There were no options vested or exercised prior to the 2008 fiscal year.
     The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires that NCM, Inc. make estimates of various factors. The following assumptions were used in the valuation of the options:
                 
    Fiscal 2008   2007 post-IPO
Expected life of options
  6.5 years     6.5 to 9 years

NCM LLC. Under the non-vested stock program, common stock of NCM, Inc. may be granted at no cost to officers, board members and key employees, subject to a continued employment restriction and as such restrictions lapse, the award vests in that proportion.

The shares are also subject to the terms and provisions of the Equity Incentive Plan. Non-vested stock granted in 2008 to employees vest in equal annual installments over a five-year period. Non-vested stock granted to non-employee directors vest after one year. Compensation cost is valued based on the market price on the grant date and is expensed over the vesting period.

     Contingent Put Obligation
     On April 29, 2008, NCM LLC, IdeaCast, the IdeaCast lender and certain of its stockholders agreed to a financial restructuring of IdeaCast. Among other things, the restructuring resulted in the lender being granted an option to “put,” or require NCM LLC to purchase, up to $10 million of the funded convertible debt at par, on or after December 31, 2010 through March 31, 2011. NCM may satisfy its put obligation by paying cash or issuing NCM shares of equal value. In accordance with FIN No. 45, the estimated fair value of $2.4 million was recorded as of April 29, 2008, which represents the noncontingent obligation. The carrying amount of the FIN 45 liability was $2.0 million as of January 1, 2009. During the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company determined that the initial investment and call right in IdeaCast were other-than-temporarily impaired due to IdeaCast’s defaults on its senior debt and liquidity issues. The key factors identified by management in making these assessments and determining the amounts were events of default on IdeaCast’s convertible debt that emerged after the fourth quarter 2008 IdeaCast operating results were analyzed and after IdeaCast failed to make a scheduled debt service payment and ongoing discussions with the convertible debt lender. Refer to Note 1 for additional details. In addition, the Company determined that the put obligation was probable and recorded an additional contingent liability of $2.5 million. The total liability at January 1, 2009 was $4.5 million, which represents the excess of a reasonably estimated probable loss on the put (net of estimated recoveries from the net assets of IdeaCast that serve as collateral for the convertible debt) obligation over the unamortized FIN 45 liability.
     Minimum Revenue Guarantees
     As part of the network affiliate agreements entered in the ordinary course of business, the Company has agreed to certain minimum revenue guarantees. If an affiliate achieves the attendance set forth in their respective agreement, the Company has guaranteed minimum revenue for the network affiliate per attendee. The amount and term varies for each network affiliate. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make pursuant to the minimum revenue guarantees is $24.0 million over the remaining terms of the network affiliate agreements. The Company has no liabilities recorded for these obligations as of January 1, 2009.
