The total consideration to be paid for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered is $1,085.06, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the payment date, which includes a consent payment of $30 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes. The total consideration was determined using a yield based upon a fixed spread of 50 basis points over the yield to maturity on the 6-1/8% U.S. Treasury Note due December 31, 2001, based on the bid price for such security as of 2:00 p.m. on February 23, 2001. SIX FLAGS/2 Unless extended, the tender offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on February 27, 2001. Payment for the Notes and consent payments, if applicable, are expected to be made on March 2, 2001. As previously announced, the consent solicitation relating to the Notes has expired. Holders that validly tendered their Notes and delivered consents (and did not revoke their consents) prior to the expiration of the consent solicitation are entitled to the consent payment of $30 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes. The consents were being solicited to effect certain amendments to the indenture governing the notes. Upon achievement of the requisite consents, Six Flags Operations, its subsidiaries that are guarantors and the trustee under the indenture executed and delivered a supplemental indenture containing the amendments. The amendments will not become operative until the Notes are accepted for purchase in accordance with the terms of the tender offer. If the amendments become operative, holders of all untendered Notes will be bound thereby. Six Flags has retained Lehman Brothers to serve as the Dealer Manager and Solicitation Agent for the tender offer and the consent solicitation. Requests for documents may be directed to D.F. King & Co., Inc., the Information Agent at (800) 431-9643. Questions regarding the tender and consent solicitation may be directed to Lehman Brothers, at (800) 438-3242 (toll-free). Six Flags, Inc. is the world's largest regional theme park company, with thirty-eight parks in markets throughout North America and Europe.
