PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
(To Prospectus dated August 4, 2022)  

AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc.
Resale of shares of Class A Common Stock

Explanatory Note: On July 22, 2024, the Company announced a significant refinancing of outstanding indebtedness. In connection therewith, the Company, Muvico, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (the “Issuer”), and certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company consummated a series of refinancing transactions, pursuant to which, among other things, the Issuer issued $414,433,523 aggregate principal amount of 6.00%/8.00% Cash/PIK Toggle Senior Secured Exchangeable Notes due 2030 (the “Exchangeable Notes”) to the selling stockholders identified in the section entitled “Selling Stockholders” (each, including their pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors in interest, a “selling stockholder” and collectively, the “selling stockholders”). In addition, the Issuer gave the selling stockholders certain rights during the first three months following the issuance of the Exchangeable Notes with respect to the issue of up to $50,000,000 incremental aggregate principal amount of such notes (the “Additional Notes”). This prospectus supplement relates to the offer and sale by the selling stockholders of up to an aggregate of 128,817,328 shares of our Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class A common stock”), representing the maximum number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the Exchangeable Notes determined as if (i) the outstanding Exchangeable Notes were converted in full immediately prior to maturity of the Exchangeable Notes without regard to any limitations on the conversion therein, (ii) the selling stockholders purchase the maximum amount of Additional Notes and (iii) the Issuer elects to pay interest in-kind by issuing additional Exchangeable Notes (“PIK Notes”), with 36,233,223 shares of Class A common stock, representing the maximum incremental number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of PIK Notes, assuming the Issuer were to only pay interest in-kind during the life of the Exchangeable Notes, including the Additional Notes. There is no guarantee that the Issuer will elect to issue PIK Notes. The Class A common stock described in this prospectus supplement may be sold from time to time pursuant to this prospectus supplement by the selling stockholders in a number of different ways and at varying prices and in different transactions. See “Selling Stockholders” and “Plan of Distribution.” We cannot predict when or in what amounts the selling stockholders may sell any of the Class A common stock offered by this prospectus supplement. The registration of the Class A common stock does not necessarily mean that any shares of such Class A common stock will be offered or sold by the selling stockholders.

We are not selling any of the Class A common stock, and we will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Class A common stock by the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders will pay all brokerage fees and commissions and similar sale-related expenses incurred in connection with the sale of the securities by such selling stockholders via this prospectus supplement. We are paying expenses relating to the registration of the Class A common stock with the SEC and certain legal fees of the selling stockholders related to the sale of Class A common stock by the selling stockholders.

Additional prospectus supplements may add, update or change information contained in this prospectus supplement. You should read this prospectus supplement together with the documents we incorporate by reference carefully before you invest. The selling stockholders may offer and sell the shares of Class A common stock to or through one or more underwriters, dealers and agents, or directly to purchasers, on a continuous or delayed basis.

Our Class A common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under the symbol “AMC.” The market prices and trading volume of our shares of Class A common stock has been and may continue to be subject to extreme fluctuations in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, which could cause purchasers of our Class A common stock to incur substantial losses. During 2024 to date, the market price of our Class A common stock has fluctuated from an intra-day low on the NYSE of $2.38 per share on April 16, 2024 to an intra-day high on the NYSE of $11.88 on May 14, 2024, and the last reported sale price of our Class A common stock on the NYSE on July 19, 2024 was $5.01 per share.

During 2024 to date, according to the NYSE, daily trading volume for our Class A common stock ranged from approximately 7,131,900 to 634,246,600 shares. The extreme fluctuations in the market price and trading volume of our Class A common stock in recent years have been accompanied by reports of strong and atypical retail investor interest, including on social media and online forums. While the market prices of our Class A common stock may respond to developments regarding our liquidity, operating performance and prospects, and developments regarding our industry, we believe that volatility and our current market prices also reflect market and trading dynamics unrelated to our underlying business, or macro or industry fundamentals, and we do not know how long these dynamics will last. Within the last seven business days, the market price of our Class A common stock has fluctuated from an intra-day low on the NYSE of $4.96 on July 19, 2024 to an intra-day high of $5.71 on July 17, 2024. Under the circumstances, we caution you against investing in our Class A common stock, unless you are prepared to incur the risk of losing all or a substantial portion of your investment. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to This Offering.”

Investing in our Class A common stock is highly speculative and involves risks. You should carefully read and consider the risk factors included in this prospectus supplement, in our periodic reports, in the accompanying prospectus and in any other documents we file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). See the sections entitled “Risk Factors” below on page 11, in our other filings with the SEC and in the accompanying prospectus.

Neither the SEC nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus supplement is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

The date of this prospectus supplement is July 22, 2024.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT

On August 4, 2022, we filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-3 utilizing a shelf registration process related to the securities described in this prospectus supplement, which was automatically declared effective upon filing.

This document is in two parts. The first part is this prospectus supplement, which provides you with a general description of our Class A common stock that the selling stockholders may offer and sell and also adds to and updates information contained in the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. To the extent required by applicable law, each time a selling stockholder sells shares of Class A common stock under this prospectus supplement, such selling stockholder will provide you with this prospectus supplement and, to the extent required, a prospectus supplement that will contain more information about the specific terms of the offering. We may also authorize one or more free writing prospectuses to be provided to you that may contain material information relating to these offerings. Each such prospectus supplement (and any related free writing prospectus that we may authorize to be provided to you), if any, may also add, update or change information contained in this prospectus supplement or in documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement. The second part, the accompanying prospectus, gives more general information, some of which may not apply to this offering. Generally, when we refer to this prospectus, we are referring to both parts of this document combined. In this prospectus supplement, as permitted by law, we “incorporate by reference” information from other documents that we file with the SEC. This means that we can disclose important information to you by referring you to those documents. The information incorporated by reference is considered to be a part of this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and should be read with the same care. When we update the information contained in documents that have been incorporated by reference by making future filings with the SEC, the information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement is considered to be automatically updated and superseded. In other words, in case of a conflict or inconsistency between information contained in this prospectus supplement and information in the accompanying prospectus or incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement, you should rely on the information contained in the document that was filed later.

You should rely only on the information contained in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, including the information incorporated by reference herein as described under “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation of Documents by Reference,” and any free writing prospectus that we prepare and distribute.

Neither we nor the selling stockholders or any of our or their affiliates have authorized anyone to provide you with information other than that contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus or any free writing prospectus related hereto that we may authorize to be delivered to you. If given or made, any such other information or representation should not be relied upon as having been authorized by us or the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders may only offer to sell and seek offers to buy any securities in jurisdictions where offers and sales are permitted.

This prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and any other offering materials do not contain all of the information included in the registration statement as permitted by the rules and regulations of the SEC. For further information, we refer you to the registration statement on Form S-3, including its exhibits. We are subject to the informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and, therefore, file reports and other information with the SEC. Statements contained in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus or other offering materials about the provisions or contents of any agreement or other document are only summaries. If SEC rules require that any agreement or document be filed as an exhibit to the registration statement, you should refer to that agreement or document for its complete contents.

You should assume that the information in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus or any other offering materials is only accurate as of the date on its respective cover, and that any information incorporated by reference is accurate only as of the date of the document incorporated by reference, unless otherwise indicated. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since such date.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements made in this prospectus supplement, the documents that are incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and other written or oral statements made by or on behalf of AMC may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “forecast,” “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “expect,” “should,” “believe” and other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements are based only on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions and speak only as of the date on which it is made. Examples of forward-looking statements include statements we make regarding future attendance levels, operating revenues and our liquidity. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors, including those discussed in “Risk Factors,” which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following:

This list of factors that may affect future performance and the accuracy of forward-looking statements is illustrative but not exhaustive. In addition, new risks and uncertainties may arise from time to time. Accordingly, all forward-looking statements should be evaluated with an understanding of their inherent uncertainty and we caution accordingly against relying on forward-looking statements.

Consider these factors carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements. Additional factors that may cause results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements are set forth in this prospectus supplement under “Risk Factors,” as well as those set forth in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Annual Report (as defined in “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation of Documents By Reference” in this prospectus supplement), “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2024 and subsequent reports filed by us with the SEC, including on Form 8-K. Because of the foregoing, you are cautioned against relying on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. We do not undertake to update any of these statements in light of new information or future events, except as required by applicable law.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our Class A common stock is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risk factors described in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report and any updates to those risk factors or new risk factors contained in our subsequent quarterly reports and current reports, all of which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and in any other documents incorporated into this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus by reference. We expect to update these Risk Factors from time to time in the periodic and current reports that we file with the SEC after the date of this prospectus supplement. These updated risk factors will be incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. Before making any investment decision, you should carefully consider these risks as well as other information we include or incorporate by reference in this prospectus supplement or in the accompanying prospectus. For more information, see the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation of Documents by Reference” above. These risks could materially affect our business, results of operations or financial condition and affect the value of our Class A common stock. You could lose all or part of your investment. Additionally, the risks and uncertainties discussed in this prospectus supplement or in any document incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement are not the only risks and uncertainties that we face, and additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Risks Related to This Offering

There has been significant recent dilution and there may continue to be significant additional future dilution of our Class A common stock, which could adversely affect the market price of shares of our Class A common stock.

From January 1, 2020 through July 22, 2024, the outstanding shares of our Class A common stock have increased by 356,146,947 shares (on a Reverse Stock Split adjusted basis) in a combination of at the market sales, conversion of Series A Convertible Participating Preferred Stock, shareholder litigation settlement, conversion of Class B common stock, conversion of notes, exchanges of notes, transaction fee payments, and equity grant vesting. On March 14, 2023, we held a special meeting of our stockholders and obtained the requisite stockholder approval for the Charter Amendments (as defined in the Annual Report) and on August 14, 2023 we filed the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation implementing the Charter Amendments, effective as of August 24, 2023. Accordingly, in accordance with the Charter Amendments, we increased the total number of authorized shares of Class A common stock from 524,173,073 to 550,000,000 shares of Class A common stock and effectuated a reverse stock split at a ratio of one share of Class A common stock for every ten shares of Class A common stock outstanding (the “Reverse Stock Split”). In accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Designations governing the Series A Convertible Participating Preferred Stock, following the effectiveness of the Charter Amendments all outstanding shares of our Series A Convertible Participating Preferred Stock converted into 99,540,642 shares of Class A common stock. As of July 22, 2024, there were 361,354,955 shares of Class A common stock issued and outstanding. We may issue additional shares of Class A common stock in the future, to raise cash to bolster our liquidity, to repay, refinance, redeem or refinance indebtedness (including expenses, accrued interest and premium, if any), for working capital, to finance strategic initiatives and future acquisitions or for other purposes. We may also issue preferred equity securities or securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, shares of Class A common stock or acquire interests in other companies, or other assets by using a combination of cash and shares of Class A common stock, or just shares of Class A common stock. Additionally, vesting of outstanding awards pursuant to our legacy equity compensation program and updated equity compensation programs, if approved, results in the issuance of new shares of Class A common stock net of any shares withheld to cover tax withholding obligations upon vesting. Any of these events may dilute significantly the ownership interests of current stockholders, reduce our earnings per share or have an adverse effect on the price of our shares of Class A common stock.

The market price and trading volume of our shares of Class A common stock have experienced, and may continue to experience, extreme volatility, which could cause purchasers of our Class A common stock to incur substantial losses.

The market prices and trading volume of our shares of Class A common stock have experienced, and may continue to experience, extreme volatility, which could cause purchasers of our Class A common stock to incur substantial losses. For example, during 2024 to date, as adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split, the market price of our Class A common stock has fluctuated from an intra-day low on the NYSE of $2.38 per share on April 16, 2024 to an intra-day high on the NYSE of $11.88 on May 14, 2024. The last reported sale price of our Class A common stock on the NYSE on July 19, 2024, was $5.01 per share. During 2024 to date, daily trading volume ranged from approximately 7,131,900 to 634,246,600 shares.

We believe that the recent volatility and our current market prices reflect market and trading dynamics unrelated to our underlying business, or macro or industry fundamentals, and we do not know how long these dynamics will last. Under the circumstances, we caution you against investing in our Class A common stock, unless you are prepared to incur the risk of losing all or a substantial portion of your investment.

Extreme fluctuations in the market price of our Class A common stock have been accompanied by reports of strong and atypical retail investor interest, including on social media and online forums. The market volatility and trading patterns we have experienced create several risks for investors, including the following:

Future increases or decreases in the market price of our Class A common stock may not coincide in timing with the disclosure of news or developments by or affecting us. Accordingly, the market price of our shares of Class A common stock may fluctuate dramatically, and may decline rapidly, regardless of any developments in our business. Overall, there are various factors, many of which are beyond our control, that could negatively affect the market price of our Class A common stock or result in fluctuations in the price or trading volume of our Class A common stock, including:

A “short squeeze” due to a sudden increase in demand for shares of our Class A common stock that largely exceeds supply and/or focused investor trading in anticipation of a potential short squeeze have led to and could again lead to extreme price volatility in shares of our Class A common stock.

Investors may purchase shares of our Class A common stock to hedge existing exposure or to speculate on the price of our Class A common stock. Speculation on the price of our Class A common stock may involve long and short exposures. To the extent aggregate short exposure exceeds the number of shares of our Class A common stock available for purchase on the open market, investors with short exposure may have to pay a premium to repurchase shares of our Class A common stock for delivery to lenders of our Class A common stock. Those repurchases may, in turn, dramatically increase the price of shares of our Class A common stock until additional shares of our Class A common stock are available for trading or borrowing. This is often referred to as a “short squeeze.” A large proportion of our Class A common stock has been in the past and may be traded in the future by short sellers, which may increase the likelihood that our Class A common stock will be the target of a short squeeze, and there is widespread speculation that the trading price of our Class A common stock has been from time to time the result of a short squeeze. A short squeeze and/or focused investor trading in anticipation of a short squeeze have led to and could again lead to volatile price movements in shares of our Class A common stock that may be unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance or prospects and, once investors purchase the shares of our Class A common stock necessary to cover their short positions, or if investors no longer believe a short squeeze is viable, the price of our Class A common stock may rapidly decline. Investors that purchase shares of our Class A common stock during a short squeeze may lose a significant portion of their investment. Investors that purchase in anticipation of a short squeeze that is never realized may also lose a significant portion of their investment. Under the circumstances, we caution you against investing in our Class A common stock, unless you are prepared to incur the risk of losing all or a substantial portion of your investment.

Negative sentiment among AMC’s retail stockholder base could have a material adverse impact on the market price of the Class A common stock and your investment therein.

Some of our retail investors have referred to themselves as “Apes” on social media and in other forums. Self-proclaimed “Apes” are widely viewed as playing a significant role in the market dynamics that have resulted in substantial increases and volatility in the market prices of AMC’s Class A common stock and other so-called “meme” stocks. See “— The market price and trading volume of our shares of Class A common stock have experienced, and may continue to experience, extreme volatility, which could cause purchasers of our Class A common stock to incur substantial losses.” While AMC and its management have actively sought to foster positive relationships with its significant retail stockholder base as the owners of AMC, and while AMC’s retail stockholder base has been credited favorably with assisting AMC in raising significant capital in the past, there is no guarantee that AMC will be able to continue to benefit from support from its retail stockholder base in the future. Negative investor sentiment, including as a result of this prospectus supplement, could have a material adverse impact on the market price of our Class A common stock.

Information available in public media that is published by third parties, including blogs, articles, online forums, message boards and social and other media may include statements not attributable to the Company and may not be reliable or accurate.

We have received, and may continue to receive, a high degree of media coverage that is published or otherwise disseminated by third parties, including blogs, articles, online forums, message boards and social and other media. This includes coverage that is not attributable to statements made by our directors, officers or employees. You should read carefully, evaluate and rely only on the information contained in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus or any applicable free writing prospectus or incorporated documents filed with the SEC in determining whether to purchase our shares of Class A common stock. Information provided by third parties may not be reliable or accurate and could materially impact the trading price of our Class A common stock, which could cause losses to your investments.

Future offerings of debt, which would be senior to our Class A common stock upon liquidation, and/or other preferred equity securities, which may be senior to our Class A common stock for purposes of distributions or upon liquidation, could adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock.

In the future, we may attempt to increase our capital resources by making additional offerings of debt or preferred equity securities, including convertible or non-convertible senior or subordinated notes, convertible or non-convertible preferred stock, medium-term notes and trust preferred securities, to raise cash or bolster our liquidity, to repay, refinance, redeem or repurchase indebtedness (including expenses, accrued interest and premium, if any), for working capital, to finance strategic initiatives and future acquisitions or for other purposes. Upon liquidation, holders of our debt securities and lenders with respect to other borrowings will receive distributions of our available assets prior to the holders of our Class A common stock. In addition, any additional preferred stock we may issue could have a preference on liquidating distributions or a preference on distribution payments that could limit our ability to make a distribution to the holders of our Class A common stock. Since our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of our future offerings. Thus, our stockholders bear the risk of our future offerings potentially reducing the market price of our Class A common stock.

Anti-takeover protections in our Certificate of Incorporation and our bylaws may discourage or prevent a takeover of our Company, even if an acquisition would be beneficial to our stockholders.

Provisions contained in our Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws, as amended, as well as provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) delay or make it more difficult to remove incumbent directors or for a third party to acquire us, even if a takeover would benefit our stockholders. These provisions include:

Our issuance of shares of preferred stock could delay or prevent a change of control of our company. Our board of directors (the “AMC Board”) has the authority to cause us to issue, without any further vote or action by the stockholders, up to 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, in one or more series, to designate the number of shares constituting any series, and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof, including dividend rights, voting rights, rights and terms of redemption, redemption price or prices and liquidation preferences of such series. The issuance of shares of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company without further action by the stockholders, even where stockholders are offered a premium for their shares. As of July 22, 2024, 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock are authorized and available for issuance.

Our incorporation under Delaware law, the ability of the AMC Board to create and issue a new series of preferred stock or a stockholder rights plan and certain other provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws, as amended, could impede a merger, takeover or other business combination involving our company or the replacement of our management or discourage a potential investor from making a tender offer for our Class A common stock, which, under certain circumstances, could reduce the market value of our Class A common stock.

An issuance of preferred stock, could dilute the voting power of the Class A common stockholders and adversely affect the market value of our Class A common stock.

The issuance of shares of preferred stock with voting rights may adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our other classes of voting stock either by diluting the voting power of our other classes of voting stock if they vote together as a single class, or by giving the holders of any such preferred stock the right to block an action on which they have a separate class vote even if the action were approved by the holders of our other classes of voting stock.

In addition, the issuance of shares of preferred stock with dividend or conversion rights, liquidation preferences or other economic terms favorable to the holders of preferred stock could adversely affect the market price for our Class A common stock by making an investment in the Class A common stock less attractive. For example, investors may not wish to purchase Class A common stock at a price above the conversion price of a series of convertible preferred stock because the holders of the preferred stock would effectively be entitled to purchase Class A common stock at the lower conversion price causing economic dilution to the holders of Class A common stock.

Increases in market interest rates may cause potential investors to seek higher returns and therefore reduce demand for our Class A common stock, which could result in a decline in the market price of our Class A common stock.

One of the factors that may influence the price of our Class A common stock is the return on our Class A common stock (i.e., the amount of distributions or price appreciation as a percentage of the price of our Class A common stock) relative to market interest rates. An increase in market interest rates may lead prospective purchasers of our Class A common stock to expect a return, which we may be unable or choose not to provide. Further, higher interest rates would likely increase our borrowing costs and potentially decrease the cash available for distribution. Thus, higher market interest rates could cause the market price of our Class A common stock to decline.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The selling stockholders will receive all of the proceeds from the sale from time to time of the shares of Class A common stock under this prospectus supplement. We will not receive any proceeds from these sales.

The selling stockholders will pay any underwriting commissions and discounts, and expenses incurred by the selling stockholders for brokerage, marketing costs, or legal services (other than those detailed below). We will bear the costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the securities covered by this prospectus, including all registration and filing fees, securities or blue sky law compliance fees, and fees and expenses of our counsel and our independent registered public accounting firm.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following description of our capital stock is summarized from and qualified in its entirety by reference to Delaware law, our Certificate of Incorporation and our bylaws, as amended, each of which has been publicly filed with the SEC. See the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation of Documents by Reference.”

Our authorized capital stock consists of 550,000,000 shares of Class A common stock and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. As of July 22, 2024, there are 361,354,955 shares of Class A common stock issued and outstanding and no shares of preferred stock outstanding. We retired the Class B common stock authorized by our Certificate of Incorporation in connection with the conversion of the Class B common stock for our Class A common stock. Our Class A common stock is listed on the NYSE under the symbol “AMC.” The transfer agent and registrar for our Class A common stock is Computershare Trust Company, N.A.

Voting Rights

Holders of Class A common stock are entitled to one vote per share. Our directors are elected by all of the Class A common stockholders voting together as a single class.

Generally, all matters to be voted on by stockholders must be approved by a majority (or, in the case of election of directors, by a plurality) of our outstanding voting power. Except as otherwise required by the DGCL, our Certificate of Incorporation or voting rights granted to any subsequently issued preferred stock, the holders of outstanding shares of our Class A common stock and our preferred stock entitled to vote thereon, if any, vote as one class with respect to all matters to be voted on by our stockholders. Under the DGCL, amendments to our Certificate of Incorporation that would alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the Class A common stock so as to affect them adversely also must be approved by a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of the shares affected by the amendment, voting as a separate class.

Conversion

The Class A common stock is not convertible into any other shares of our capital stock.

Dividends

Holders of Class A common stock share ratably (based on the number of shares of Class A common stock held) in any dividend declared by the AMC Board, subject to any preferential rights of any outstanding preferred stock.

Other Rights

Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, after payment in full of the amounts required to be paid to holders of preferred stock, if any, all holders of Class A common stock, regardless of class, will be entitled to share ratably in any assets available for distribution to holders of shares of Class A common stock. No shares of any class of Class A common stock are subject to redemption or have preemptive rights to purchase additional shares of Class A common stock.

Preferred Stock

AMC’s Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the AMC Board to issue from time to time up to an aggregate of 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series without further stockholder approval. The AMC Board is authorized, without further stockholder approval, to fix or alter the designations, preferences, rights and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the shares of each such series thereof, including the dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions), redemption price or prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series or designations of such series.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Certain Provisions of, the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, and Delaware Law

Certain provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws may be considered to have an anti-takeover effect and may delay or prevent a tender offer or other corporate transaction that a stockholder might consider to be in its best interest, including those transactions that might result in payment of a premium over the market price for our shares. These provisions are designed to discourage certain types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened change of control of AMC without prior approval of the AMC Board. These provisions are meant to encourage persons interested in acquiring control of AMC to first consult with the AMC Board to negotiate terms of a potential business combination or offer. For example, the Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws:

The Certificate of Incorporation expressly states that we have elected not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL, which prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years after the time the stockholder became an interested stockholder, subject to certain exceptions, including if, prior to such time, the board of such corporation approved the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder. “Business combinations” include mergers, asset sales and other transactions resulting in a financial benefit to the “interested stockholder.” Subject to various exceptions, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with his or her affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years did own, 15% or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock. These restrictions generally prohibit or delay the accomplishment of mergers or other takeover or change-in-control attempts that are not approved by a company’s board. Although we have elected to opt out of the statute’s provisions, we could elect to be subject to Section 203 in the future.

Special Meeting of Stockholders

Special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by a majority of our directors.

No Actions by Written Consent

Stockholder action may not be taken by written consent in lieu of a meeting. Stockholder action can be taken only at an annual or special meeting of stockholders.

Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations

The bylaws provide that stockholders seeking to bring business before an annual meeting of stockholders, or to nominate candidates for election as directors at an annual meeting of stockholders, must provide timely notice thereof in writing. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice generally must be delivered to and received at our principal executive offices, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, that in the event that the date of such meeting is advanced more than 30 days prior to, or delayed by more than 30 days after, the anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting of our stockholders, a stockholder’s notice to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 60th day prior to such meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 30th day prior to such meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. The bylaws also specify certain requirements as to the form and content of a stockholder’s notice. These provisions may preclude stockholders from bringing matters before an annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at an annual meeting of stockholders.

Authorized but Unissued Shares

The authorized but unissued shares of Class A common stock and preferred stock are available for future issuance without stockholder approval. These additional shares may be used for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of Class A common stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of AMC by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

Amendments to Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws

The Certificate of Incorporation provides that the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote on any matter is required to amend the Certificate of Incorporation. In addition, under the DGCL, an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation that would alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the Class A common stock so as to affect them adversely also must be approved by a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of the shares affected by the amendment, voting as a separate class. Subject to the bylaws, the AMC Board may from time to time make, amend, supplement or repeal the bylaws by vote of a majority of the AMC Board.

Registration Rights

Pursuant to the management stockholders agreement, dated as of August 30, 2012, as amended on December 17, 2013, by and among us and the stockholders party thereto, certain members of management have the right subject to various conditions and limitations, to include shares of our Class A common stock in registration statements relating to our Class A common stock.

Limitation of Liability and Indemnification of Directors and Officers

As permitted by the DGCL, we have adopted provisions in the Certificate of Incorporation that limit or eliminate the personal liability of our directors for monetary damages for a breach of their fiduciary duty of care as a director. The duty of care generally requires that, when acting on behalf of the corporation, directors and officers exercise an informed business judgment based on all material information reasonably available to them. Consequently, a director will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for:

These limitations of liability do not generally affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission.

As permitted by the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws provide that:

We currently maintain liability insurance for our directors and officers.

The Certificate of Incorporation requires us to advance expenses to our directors and officers in connection with a legal proceeding, subject to receiving an undertaking from such director or officer to repay advanced amounts if it is determined he or she is not entitled to indemnification. The bylaws provide that we may advance expenses to our employees and other agents, upon such terms and conditions, if any, as we deem appropriate.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

This prospectus supplement relates to the possible offer and resale by the selling stockholders from time to time of the Class A common stock described below underlying the Exchangeable Notes. For additional information regarding the issuance of the Exchangeable Notes, see “Recent Developments” above.

Prior to the issuance of the Exchangeable Notes, the selling stockholders held certain amounts of AMC’s 10%/12% Cash/PIK Toggle Second Lien Subordinated Secured Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”). The principal amount of the 2026 Notes held by the selling stockholders has varied over time, but as of immediately prior to the closing of the Transactions, the selling stockholders collectively held 2026 Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $518,645,724.

We are registering the shares of Class A common stock in order to permit the selling stockholders to offer the Class A common stock underlying the Exchangeable Notes for resale from time to time. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of Class A common stock by the selling stockholders pursuant to this prospectus supplement.

We have the right to elect to settle conversions of the Exchangeable Notes by paying or delivering, as applicable, cash, shares of our Class A common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our Class A common stock. If the Exchangeable Notes are converted fully into shares of our Class A common stock, they will be converted into an aggregate of up to an aggregate of 128,817,328 shares of our Class A common stock, determined as if (i) the outstanding Exchangeable Notes were converted in full immediately prior to maturity of the Exchangeable Notes, without regard to any limitations on the conversion therein, (ii) the selling stockholders purchase the maximum amount of Additional Notes, and (iii) the Issuer elects to pay interest in-kind by issuing PIK Notes, with 36,233,223 shares of Class A common stock, representing the maximum incremental number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of PIK Notes, assuming the Issuer were to only pay interest in-kind during the life of the Exchangeable Notes, including the Additional Notes. There is no guarantee that the Issuer will elect to issue PIK Notes. If these assumptions are not true, or if the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the Exchangeable Notes is adjusted under the circumstances described in the indenture, the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the Exchangeable Notes and the number of shares of Class A common stock beneficially owned and offered by the selling stockholders pursuant to this prospectus supplement may decrease from that set forth in the table below. This prospectus supplement generally covers the resale of the maximum number of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the Exchangeable Notes, including the Additional Notes, without regard to any limitations on the conversion therein.

Under the terms of the Exchangeable Notes, a selling stockholder may not convert the Exchangeable Notes to the extent such conversion would cause such selling stockholder, together with its affiliates and attribution parties, to beneficially own a number of shares of our Class A common stock which would exceed 9.99% of our then outstanding shares of Class A common stock following such conversion, excluding for purposes of such determination the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the Exchangeable Notes which have not been converted. The number of shares of Class A common stock in the table below do not reflect this limitation. The selling stockholders may sell all, some or none of the Class A common stock registered hereby. See “Plan of Distribution.”

For purposes of this prospectus supplement, “selling stockholders” include the stockholders listed below and their permitted transferees, pledgees, assignees, distributees, donees or successors or others who later hold any of the selling stockholders’ interests. Our registration of the shares of Class A common stock does not necessarily mean that the selling stockholders will sell all or any of such shares of Class A common stock pursuant to this prospectus supplement or otherwise. The following table sets forth certain information as of July 22, 2024 concerning the shares of Class A common stock that may be offered from time to time by the selling stockholders with this prospectus supplement. The information is based on information provided by or on behalf of the selling stockholders. Information about the selling stockholders may change over time. In particular, the selling stockholders identified below may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of their shares of Class A common stock since the date on which they provided us with information regarding their interests. Any changed or new information given to us by the selling stockholders will be set forth in subsequent prospectus supplements or amendments to the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement is a part, if and when necessary.

The applicable percentage ownership of Class A common stock is based on 490,172,283 shares of Class A common stock (including shares of Class A common stock underlying the Exchangeable Notes, assuming that the Additional Notes had been purchased by the selling stockholders and the Issuer were to only pay interest in-kind during the life of the Exchangeable Notes, including the Additional Notes) as of July 22, 2024. Information with respect to securities owned beneficially after the offering assumes the sale of all of the shares of Class A common stock registered hereby. The selling stockholders may offer and sell some, all or none of their shares of Class A common stock.

The beneficial ownership of the Class A common stock set forth in the following table is determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose.

Except for the transactions referred to herein and in documents filed by us with the SEC pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (including the entry into the Securities Purchase Agreement), each of the selling stockholders does not have, and within the last three years has not had, any position, office or other material relationship (legal or otherwise) with us or any of our subsidiaries other than as a holder of our securities.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We are registering the resale by the selling stockholders or their permitted transferees of up to 128,817,328 shares of our Class A common stock underlying the Exchangeable Notes, including the Additional Notes, and assuming that the Issuer were to only pay interest in-kind during the life of the Exchangeable Notes, including the Additional Notes.

The selling stockholders may offer and sell the Class A common stock offered by this prospectus supplement from time to time in one or more transactions on the NYSE or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices, including without limitation:

In addition, the manner in which the selling stockholders may sell some or all of the Class A common stock covered by this prospectus supplement includes any method permitted by law, including, without limitation, through:

Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in this prospectus supplement, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.

The selling stockholders may pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Exchangeable Notes or shares of Class A common stock owned by them (including shares of Class A common stock underlying the Exchangeable Notes) and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of Class A common stock from time to time pursuant to this prospectus supplement or any amendment to this prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(7) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending, if necessary, the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus supplement. The selling stockholders also may transfer and donate the shares of Class A common stock in other circumstances in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus supplement.

The selling stockholders may also enter into hedging transactions. For example, the selling stockholders may:

The Class A common stock covered by this prospectus supplement may be sold:

In addition, the selling stockholders may enter into derivative or hedging transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus supplement to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. In connection with such a transaction, the third parties may sell securities covered by and pursuant to this prospectus supplement and an applicable pricing supplement, as the case may be. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by or borrowed from the selling stockholders or others to settle such sales and may use securities received from the selling stockholders to close out any related short positions. The selling stockholders may also loan or pledge securities covered by this prospectus supplement to third parties, who may sell the loaned securities or, in an event of default in the case of a pledge, sell the pledged securities pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the applicable pricing supplement, as the case may be. The third party in such sale transactions may be an underwriter and will be named in the applicable post-effective amendment to the extent required.

In effecting sales, broker-dealers or agents engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate. Broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions, discounts or concessions from the selling stockholders in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale.

The selling stockholders will not pay any of the costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration and sale of the Class A common stock offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement, but they will pay any and all underwriting discounts, selling commissions and stock transfer taxes, if any, attributable to sales of the Class A common stock offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Class A common stock by the selling stockholders.

To the extent necessary, a prospectus supplement with respect to an offering of the Class A common stock will state the terms of the offering of the Class A common stock, including:

The offer and sale of the Class A common stock described in this prospectus supplement by the selling stockholders, the underwriters or the third parties described above may be effected from time to time in one or more transactions, including privately negotiated transactions, either:

To the extent necessary, as requested by the selling stockholders, we will identify the specific plan of distribution, including any underwriters, brokers, dealers, agents or direct purchasers and their compensation in a prospectus supplement.

Once sold under the registration statement, of which this prospectus supplement forms a part, the shares of Class A common stock registered for resale herein will be freely tradeable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.

The selling stockholders may also resell all or a portion of the Class A common stock in reliance upon Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act provided they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of Rule 144 or other applicable exemption and all applicable laws and regulations.

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

The following is a general discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our Class A common stock. This discussion does not provide a complete analysis of all potential U.S. federal income tax considerations relating thereto. This description is based on the Code and existing and proposed U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, administrative pronouncements, judicial decisions, and interpretations of the foregoing, all as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect.

This discussion is limited to non-U.S. holders (as defined below) who hold shares of our Class A common stock as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally for investment).

Moreover, this discussion is for general information only and does not address all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to you in light of your particular circumstances, including the alternative minimum tax, the Medicare tax on certain investment income or any state, local or foreign tax laws or any U.S. federal tax laws other than U.S. federal income tax laws, nor does it discuss special tax provisions, which may apply to you if you are subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax laws, such as for:

You are urged to consult your own tax advisor concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences of purchasing, owning and disposing of our Class A common stock, as well as the application of any state, local, foreign income and other tax laws and tax treaties.

As used in this discussion, a “non-U.S. holder” is a beneficial owner of our Class A common stock (other than a partnership or any other entity treated as a pass-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that is not, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

If a partnership or other entity or arrangement treated as a pass-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes is a beneficial owner of our Class A common stock, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership or an owner of the other pass-through entity or arrangement generally will depend upon the status of the partner or owner and the activities of the partnership or other pass-through entity or arrangement. Any partnership, partner in such a partnership or owner of another pass-through entity or arrangement holding shares of our Class A common stock should consult its own tax advisor as to the particular U.S. federal income tax consequences applicable to it.

INVESTORS CONSIDERING THE PURCHASE OF OUR CLASS A COMMON STOCK ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE APPLICATION OF U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS TO THEIR PARTICULAR SITUATIONS AND THE CONSEQUENCES OF OTHER FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND FOREIGN TAX LAWS, AND APPLICABLE TAX TREATIES.

Distributions on Class A Common Stock

If we pay distributions on shares of our Class A common stock, such distributions should constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits should constitute a return of capital that is applied against and reduces, but not below zero, a non-U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in shares of our Class A common stock. Any remaining excess should be treated as gain realized on the sale or other disposition of our Class A common stock. See “Dispositions of Class A Common Stock.”

Subject to the discussion below regarding effectively connected income, any dividend paid to a non-U.S. holder on our Class A common stock should generally be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a 30% rate. The withholding tax might not apply, however, or might apply at a reduced rate, under the terms of an applicable income tax treaty. You are urged to consult your own tax advisor regarding your entitlement to benefits under a relevant income tax treaty. Generally, in order for us or our paying agent to withhold tax at a lower treaty rate, a non-U.S. holder must certify its entitlement to treaty benefits. A non-U.S. holder generally can meet this certification requirement by providing a valid IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or other applicable form or documentation), as applicable, to us or our paying agent. If the non-U.S. holder holds the stock through a financial institution or other agent acting on the holder’s behalf, the holder should be required to provide appropriate documentation to the agent. Even if our current or accumulated earnings or profits are less than the amount of the distribution, the applicable withholding agent may elect to treat the entire distribution as a dividend for U.S. federal withholding tax purposes. A non-U.S. holder that does not timely furnish the required documentation, but that qualifies for a reduced treaty rate, may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS.

Dividends received by a non-U.S. holder that are effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business conducted by the non-U.S. holder and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a permanent establishment (or, in certain cases involving individual holders, a fixed base) maintained by the non-U.S. holder in the United States, are generally not subject to such withholding tax. To obtain this exemption, a non-U.S. holder must provide us or the paying agent with a valid IRS Form W-8ECI properly certifying such exemption. Such effectively connected dividends, although not subject to withholding tax (provided certain certification and disclosure requirements are satisfied), are taxed at the same graduated rates applicable to U.S. persons, net of certain deductions and credits. In addition to the graduated tax described above, such effectively connected dividends received by corporate non-U.S. holders may also be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30%, as adjusted for certain items, or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty.

Dispositions of Class A Common Stock

Subject to the discussion below on backup withholding and other withholding taxes, gain realized by a non-U.S. holder on a sale, exchange or other disposition of our Class A common stock generally should not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax, unless:

Generally, a corporation is a USRPHC if the fair market value of its “United States real property interests” equals 50% or more of the sum of the fair market value of (a) its worldwide real property interests and (b) its other assets used or held for use in a trade or business. The tax relating to dispositions of stock in a USRPHC does not apply to a non-U.S. holder whose holdings, actual and constructive, amount to 5% or less of our Class A common stock at all times during the applicable period, provided that our Class A common stock is regularly traded on an established securities market. No assurance can be provided that our Class A common stock will be regularly traded on an established securities market at all times for purposes of the rules described above. Although there can be no assurances in this regard, we believe we have not been and are not currently a USRPHC, and do not anticipate being a USRPHC in the future. You are urged to consult your own tax advisor about the consequences that could result if we are, or become, a USRPHC.

If any gain from the sale, exchange or other disposition of our Class A common stock, (1) is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business conducted by a non-U.S. holder and (2) if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a permanent establishment (or, in certain cases involving individuals, a fixed base) maintained by such non-U.S. holder in the United States, then the gain generally should be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the same graduated rates applicable to U.S. persons, net of certain deductions and credits. If the non-U.S. holder is a corporation, under certain circumstances, that portion of its earnings and profits that is effectively connected with its U.S. trade or business, subject to certain adjustments, generally would also be subject to a “branch profits tax.” The branch profits tax rate is generally 30%, although an applicable income tax treaty might provide for a lower rate.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Any distributions that are paid to a non-U.S. holder must be reported annually to the IRS and to the non-U.S. holder, regardless of whether such distributions constitute dividends or whether any tax was actually withheld. Copies of these information returns also may be made available to the tax authorities of the country in which the non-U.S. holder resides under the provisions of various treaties or agreements for the exchange of information. Dividends paid on our Class A common stock and the gross proceeds from a taxable disposition of our Class A common stock may be subject to additional information reporting and may also be subject to U.S. federal backup withholding if such non-U.S. holder fails to comply with applicable U.S. information reporting and certification requirements. Provision of an IRS Form W-8 appropriate to the non-U.S. holder’s circumstances should generally satisfy the certification requirements necessary to avoid the additional information reporting and backup withholding.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts so withheld under the backup withholding rules should be refunded by the IRS or credited against the non-U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Other Withholding Taxes

Provisions commonly referred to as “FATCA” impose withholding (separate and apart from, but without duplication of, the withholding tax described above) at a rate of 30% on payments of U.S.-source dividends (including our dividends) paid to “foreign financial institutions” (which is broadly defined for this purpose and in general includes investment vehicles) and certain other non-U.S. entities unless various U.S. information reporting and due diligence requirements (generally relating to ownership by U.S. persons of interests in or accounts with those entities) have been satisfied, or an exemption applies. Withholding imposed by FATCA may also apply to gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of domestic corporate stock (including our Class A common stock); although, under proposed U.S. Treasury regulations published on December 18, 2018, no withholding would apply to such gross proceeds. The preamble to the proposed regulations specifies that taxpayers (including withholding agents) are permitted to rely on the proposed regulations pending finalization. An intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country may modify these requirements. Accordingly, the entity through which our Class A common stock is held should affect the determination of whether such withholding is required. If FATCA withholding is imposed, a beneficial owner that is not a foreign financial institution generally should be entitled to a refund of any amounts withheld by filing a U.S. federal income tax return containing the required information (which may entail significant administrative burden). Non-U.S. holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the effects of FATCA on their investment in our Class A common stock.

THE PRECEDING DISCUSSION OF U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES IS FOR GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY. IT IS NOT TAX ADVICE. EACH PROSPECTIVE INVESTOR IS URGED TO CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE PARTICULAR U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND FOREIGN TAX CONSEQUENCES OF PURCHASING, OWNING AND DISPOSING OF OUR CLASS A COMMON STOCK, INCLUDING THE CONSEQUENCES OF ANY PROPOSED CHANGE IN APPLICABLE LAWS AND TREATIES.

THE COMPANY

We are the world’s largest theatrical exhibition company and an industry leader in innovation and operational excellence. Over the course of our nearly 100-year history, we have pioneered many of the theatrical exhibition industry’s most important innovations. We introduced Multiplex theatres in the 1960s and the North American stadium-seated Megaplex theatre format in the 1990s. Most recently, we continued to innovate and evolve the movie-going experience with the deployment of our theatre renovations featuring plush, powered recliner seating and the launch of our U.S. subscription loyalty tier, AMC Stubs® A-List. Our growth has been driven by a combination of organic growth through reinvestment in our existing assets and through the acquisition of some of the most respected companies in the theatrical exhibition industry.

We were incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware on June 6, 2007. We maintain our principal executive offices at One AMC Way, 11500 Ash Street, Leawood, Kansas 66211 and our telephone number is (913) 213-2000. Our corporate website address is www.amctheatres.com. Our website and the information contained on, or that can be accessed through, the website is not incorporated by reference in, and is not part of, this prospectus. You should not rely on any such information in making your decision whether to purchase our securities.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our securities involves risks. You should carefully consider the risk factors set forth below and the risk factors described under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report and any updates to those risk factors or new risk factors contained in our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, all of which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus, as the same may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by our filings under the Exchange Act, as well as any prospectus supplement relating to a specific offering or resale. Before making any investment decision, you should carefully consider these risks as well as other information we include or incorporate by reference in this prospectus or in any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus. For more information, see the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation of Documents by Reference” in this prospectus. These risks could materially affect our business, results of operations or financial condition and affect the value of our securities. You could lose all or part of your investment. Additionally, the risks and uncertainties discussed in this prospectus or in any document incorporated by reference into this prospectus are not the only risks and uncertainties that we face, and additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Except as otherwise provided in a prospectus supplement, we intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of the securities offered by this prospectus for general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment, refinancing, redemption or repurchase of existing indebtedness or capital stock, working capital, capital expenditures and other investments. We will not receive any proceeds from any sale of our securities by any selling stockholders. Additional information on the use of net proceeds from the sale of securities offered by this prospectus may be set forth in the prospectus supplement relating to that offering.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following description of our capital stock is summarized from and qualified in its entirety by reference to Delaware law, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “certificate of incorporation”) and our amended and restated bylaws (the “bylaws”), each of which has been publicly filed with the SEC. See the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation of Documents by Reference”.

Our authorized capital stock consists of 524,173,073 shares of common stock and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. As of August 4, 2022, there were 516,820,595 shares of common stock outstanding and no shares of preferred stock outstanding. We retired the Class B common stock authorized by our certificate of incorporation in connection with the conversion of the Class B common stock for our Class A common stock. Our common stock is listed on the NYSE under the symbol “AMC”. The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Computershare Trust Company, N.A.

Voting Rights

Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share. Our directors are elected by all of the common stockholders voting together as a single class.

Generally, all matters to be voted on by stockholders must be approved by a majority (or, in the case of election of directors, by a plurality) of our outstanding voting power. Except as otherwise required by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), our certificate of incorporation or voting rights granted to any subsequently issued preferred stock, the holders of outstanding shares of our common stock and our preferred stock entitled to vote thereon, if any, vote as one class with respect to all matters to be voted on by our stockholders. Under the DGCL, amendments to our certificate of incorporation that would alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the common stock so as to affect them adversely also must be approved by a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of the shares affected by the amendment, voting as a separate class.

Conversion

The common stock is not convertible into any other shares of our capital stock.

No class of common stock may be subdivided or combined unless the other class of common stock concurrently is subdivided or combined in the same proportion and in the same manner.

Dividends

Holders of common stock share ratably (based on the number of shares of common stock held) in any dividend declared by the AMC Board, subject to any preferential rights of any outstanding preferred stock.

Other Rights

Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, after payment in full of the amounts required to be paid to holders of preferred stock, if any, all holders of common stock, regardless of class, will be entitled to share ratably in any assets available for distribution to holders of shares of common stock. No shares of any class of common stock are subject to redemption or have preemptive rights to purchase additional shares of common stock.

Preferred Stock

AMC’s certificate of incorporation authorizes the AMC Board to issue from time to time up to an aggregate of 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series without further stockholder approval. The AMC Board is authorized, without further stockholder approval, to establish one or more series of preferred stock and to determine, with respect to each such series, the designations, preferences, rights and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the shares of each such series thereof, including the dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions), redemption price or prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series or designations of such series. On August 4, 2022, the Company filed a Certificate of Designations (the “Certificate of Designations”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware designating 10,000,000 shares of the Company’s authorized preferred stock as Series A Convertible Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) with the preferences, limitations, voting powers and relative rights as set forth in the Certificate of Designations. A copy of the Certificate of Designations, which became effective upon filing on August 4, 2022, is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on August 4, 2022, and is incorporated by reference herein. Particular terms of any Series A Preferred Stock we offer will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to such offering. The issuance of our preferred stock, including the Series A Preferred Stock, could have the effect of decreasing the trading price of our common stock, restricting dividends on our capital stock, diluting the voting power of our common stock, impairing the liquidation rights of our capital stock, or delaying or preventing a change in control of our Company.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Certain Provisions of Delaware Law, the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws

Certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may be considered to have an anti-takeover effect and may delay or prevent a tender offer or other corporate transaction that a stockholder might consider to be in its best interest, including those transactions that might result in payment of a premium over the market price for our shares. These provisions are designed to discourage certain types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened change of control of AMC without prior approval of the AMC Board. These provisions are meant to encourage persons interested in acquiring control of AMC to first consult with the AMC Board to negotiate terms of a potential business combination or offer. For example, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws:

The certificate of incorporation expressly states that we have elected not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL, which prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years after the time the stockholder became an interested stockholder, subject to certain exceptions, including if, prior to such time, the board of such corporation approved the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder. “Business combinations” include mergers, asset sales and other transactions resulting in a financial benefit to the “interested stockholder.” Subject to various exceptions, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with his or her affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years did own, 15% or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock. These restrictions generally prohibit or delay the accomplishment of mergers or other takeover or change-in-control attempts that are not approved by a company’s board. Although we have elected to opt out of the statute’s provisions, we could elect to be subject to Section 203 in the future.

The bylaws state that unless AMC consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of AMC, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of AMC to AMC or AMC’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or the certificate of incorporation or bylaws, or (iv) any action asserting a claim against AMC governed by the internal affairs doctrine; provided, however, that this provision of the bylaws does not apply to any actions arising under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

Special Meeting of Stockholders

Special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by a majority of our directors.

No Actions by Written Consent

Stockholder action can be taken only at an annual or special meeting of stockholders.

Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations

The bylaws provide that stockholders seeking to bring business before an annual meeting of stockholders, or to nominate candidates for election as directors at an annual meeting of stockholders, must provide timely notice thereof in writing. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice generally must be delivered to and received at our principal executive offices, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, that in the event that the date of such meeting is advanced more than 30 days prior to, or delayed by more than 30 days after, the anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting of our stockholders, a stockholder’s notice to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 60th day prior to such meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 30th day prior to such meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. The bylaws also specify certain requirements as to the form and content of a stockholder’s notice. These provisions may preclude stockholders from bringing matters before an annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at an annual meeting of stockholders.

Authorized but Unissued Shares

The authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock are available for future issuance without stockholder approval. These additional shares may be used for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of AMC by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

Amendments to Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws

The certificate of incorporation provides that the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote on any matter is required to amend the certificate of incorporation. In addition, under the DGCL, an amendment to the certificate of incorporation that would alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the common stock so as to affect them adversely also must be approved by a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of the shares affected by the amendment, voting as a separate class. Subject to the bylaws, the AMC Board may from time to time make, amend, supplement or repeal the bylaws by vote of a majority of the AMC Board.

Registration Rights

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement dated December 23, 2013, we have agreed, subject to certain conditions, to use our best efforts to effect registered offerings upon request from Wanda and have granted incidental or “piggyback” registration rights with respect to our common stock held by Wanda. These registration rights of our stockholders could impair the prevailing market price and impair our ability to raise capital by depressing the price at which we could sell our common stock.

Limitation of Liability and Indemnification of Directors and Officers

As permitted by the DGCL, we have adopted provisions in the certificate of incorporation that limit or eliminate the personal liability of our directors and officers for monetary damages for a breach of their fiduciary duty of care as a director or officer. The duty of care generally requires that, when acting on behalf of the corporation, directors and officers exercise an informed business judgment based on all material information reasonably available to them. Consequently, a director or officer will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except for liability for:

These limitations of liability do not generally affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission.

As permitted by the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that:

We currently maintain liability insurance for our directors and officers.

The certificate of incorporation requires us to advance expenses to our directors and officers in connection with a legal proceeding, subject to receiving an undertaking from such director or officer to repay advanced amounts if it is determined he or she is not entitled to indemnification. The bylaws provide that we may advance expenses to our employees and other agents, upon such terms and conditions, if any, as we deems appropriate.

DESCRIPTION OF SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS

The following is a general description of the terms of the subscription rights we may issue from time to time. Particular terms of any subscription rights we offer will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to such subscription rights.

We may issue subscription rights to purchase our equity or debt securities. These subscription rights may be issued independently or together with any other security offered hereby and may or may not be transferable by the stockholder receiving the subscription rights in such offering. In connection with any offering of subscription rights, we may enter into a standby arrangement with one or more underwriters or other purchasers pursuant to which the underwriters or other purchasers may be required to purchase any securities remaining unsubscribed for after such offering.

These rights include any applicable dividend, voting, redemption, conversion and liquidation rights. The depository will send the holders of depositary shares all reports and communications that we deliver to the depository and which we are required to furnish to the holders of depositary shares.
