It is anticipated that this proxy statement and accompanying proxy card will first be mailed to the Company's shareholders on or about March 29, 1995. The Company's 1994 Annual Report to Shareholders, which should be read in conjunction with the matters discussed in this proxy statement, is also enclosed. The expenses incidental to the preparation and mailing of this proxy material are being paid by the Company. No solicitation is planned beyond the mailing of this proxy material to shareholders.

Each share of Class A Common Stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote per share on all matters properly coming before the meeting.

The abstention by any shareholder or the failure of any shareholder to vote his or her shares on the proposed amendment will have the same effect as a vote against the proposed amendment. In addition, under applicable Delaware law, a broker non-vote with respect to the proposed amendment will have the same effect as a vote against that proposal and will have no effect on the outcome of the election of directors.

Class A Stock Option Plan (the "Stock Option Plan") and were approved by the Stock Option Committee of the Board of Directors on March 16, 1994. Such grants vest in full on the third anniversary of the grant date. The exercise price of $18.00 per share equals the closing price of the Class A Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the date of grant. (2) A total of 142,500 stock options were granted in 1994 to key employees participating in the Stock Option Plan. (3) Based on the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The actual value, if any, an executive officer may realize ultimately depends on the market value of the Company's Class A Common Stock at a future date. This valuation is provided pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission disclosure rules. There is no assurance that the value realized will be at or near the value estimated by the Black-Scholes model. The assumptions used in calculating the Black-Scholes value were expected volatility of .39, risk-free return of 7.11%, dividend yield of 0% and time to exercise of 10 years. -11- 14 OPTION EXERCISES AND HOLDINGS The following table sets forth information with respect to the named executive officers concerning the exercise of options during the last fiscal year and unexercised options held as of the end of the fiscal year.

REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION The Board of Directors does not have a Compensation Committee. The full Board of Directors oversees and reviews the administration of the Company's employee benefit plans and compensation of employees, except for decisions about awards under the Company's stock option plan, which must be made solely by the Stock Option Committee in order for the grants or awards under such plan to satisfy Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The following is a report submitted by the Board of Directors addressing the Company's compensation policy as it related to the Chief Executive Officer and the other named executive officers for fiscal year 1994. -12- 15 Base Salary and Bonuses The Company does not have a formalized program regarding compensation of executive officers. The base salaries for the Chairman of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer are set in accordance with their employment contracts. See "Employment Contracts." The terms of these contracts were proposed by the Chairman of the Board and the Company's Chief Executive Officer. Factors considered by the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer are subjective and could include their perceptions of the individual's performance, needs and potential and the Columbus, Georgia economy. The Chairman of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer inform the Board of Directors as to the proposed remuneration of the other named executive officers. Again, the factors considered are usually subjective and could include their perceptions of each individual's performance, needs and potential and the Columbus, Georgia economy. An individual's bonus is based on earnings per share for the Company's Class A Common Stock. For each $1.00 in earnings per share, an individual receives a bonus of $5,000 multiplied by the number of bonus points awarded to such individual. The Chairman of the Board informs the Board of Directors of the proposed number of "bonus points" to be awarded to the Chief Executive Officer. Factors considered by the Chairman of the Board are subjective and could include his perception of the individual's contribution to the Company's performance. The Chairman of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer decide the number of "bonus points" to be awarded to the other named executive officers. Factors considered by the Chairman of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer are subjective and could include their perceptions of an individual's contributions to the Company's performance. The Chairman of the Board does not participate in the bonus program. Deferred Compensation Plan The Company maintains a Deferred Compensation Plan for certain executive officers, including the named executive officers, pursuant to which the Company pays additional compensation on a pre-tax basis equal to 10% of an employee's taxable compensation. Distributions from the plan are made upon or shortly after normal retirement, disability, death or termination of employment of a participant. Stock Option Plan The Stock Option Plan is the Company's long-term incentive plan for executive officers and key employees. The objective of the Stock Option Plan is to align executive pay with shareholder long-term interest by creating a direct link between executive pay and shareholder return, and to enable executives to develop and maintain a significant long-term ownership position in the Company's Class A Common Stock. -13- 16 The Stock Option Plan authorizes the Stock Option Committee to award stock options to key employees of the Company. The Stock Option Committee has the power to determine the individuals to whom stock options are awarded, the terms at which option grants shall be made and the terms of the options and the number of shares subject to each option. The size of option grants may be based, in part, upon position level. During 1994, the Stock Option Committee granted options for an aggregate of 75,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to the named executive officers. See "Stock Option Grants" for information regarding these options. Chief Executive Officer Pay Amounts earned during 1994 by the Chief Executive Officer, Michael W. Patrick, are shown in the Summary Compensation Table. His base salary was set pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement with the Company. That agreement provides for a base annual salary of $500,000, with annual cost of living adjustments. See "Employment Contracts.". Michael W. Patrick received a bonus of $62,000 in 1994. The amount of his bonus was based on earnings per share as described above. The Board believes that the current subjective process has been effective in rewarding executives appropriately, and in attracting and retaining good performers. While the Board is pleased with the current compensation system, it reserves the right to make such changes to the program as it deems desirable or necessary in future years.

COMPARISON OF 5 YEAR CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURN OF COMPANY, PEER GROUP INDEX AND NYSE MARKET INDEX FISCAL YEAR ENDING - ----------------------------------- ------------------------- COMPANY 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 CARMIKE CINEMAS CL A 100 72.07 111.71 102.70 129.73 165.77 PEER GROUP INDEX 100 39.94 58.96 52.28 89.60 83.57 NYSE MARKET INDEX 100 95.92 124.12 129.96 147.56 144.69 The above graph compares the performance of the Company with the New York Stock Exchange Market Index and a group of peer companies with investment weighted on market capitalization at the beginning of each period for which a return is indicated. Companies in the peer group are as follows: AMC Entertainment, Carmike Cinemas, Cineplex Odeon and Showscan Cp. These companies were chosen on the basis of being publicly held companies which are primarily in the movie exhibition business (non drive-in). CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS The Company leases equipment for six of its theatres pursuant to five equipment lease agreements with Michael W. Patrick and one such agreement with C.L. Patrick. During the year ended December 31, 1994, the Company paid $93,471 to Michael W. Patrick and $96,000 to C.L. Patrick under these equipment leases. The Company also has an aircraft lease agreement dated July 1, 1983, with C.L.P. Equipment, a sole proprietorship of which C.L. Patrick is the owner, pursuant to which the Company paid $190,522 in the year ended December 31, 1994. The Company believes that these transactions are on terms no less favorable to the Company than terms available from unaffiliated parties in arm's-length transactions. Any future transactions between the Company and any officer, director, 5% shareholder or any affiliate thereof will be on -15- 18 terms no less favorable to the Company than could be obtained from an unaffiliated third party. The law firm of Troutman Sanders, Atlanta, Georgia, of which Carl E. Sanders is the Chairman, provides legal services to the Company. II. PROPOSAL TO AMEND THE COMPANY'S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES OF CLASS A COMMON STOCK The Board of Directors of the Company has proposed and declared advisable and is recommending to the shareholders approval of an amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Class A Common Stock from 15,000,000 shares to 22,500,000 shares. The text of the first paragraph of Article Fourth of the Certificate of Incorporation as proposed to be amended will read as follows (language to be deleted by the amendment is indicated by strike-through, and language to be added by the amendment is indicated by underlining): FOURTH: The aggregate number of shares of capital stock of all classes which the Corporation shall have authority to issue is 28,500,000, consisting of (i) 27,500,000 shares of Common Stock, which in turn consists of (A) 22,500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $.03 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"), and (B) 5,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $.03 per share (the "Class B Common Stock"), and (ii) 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the "Preferred Stock"). On March 15, 1995, __________ shares of Class A Common Stock and 1,420,700 shares of Class B Common Stock were outstanding. The Company currently has no shares of the Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. In addition to the issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, at March 15, 1995, the following numbers of shares of Class A Common Stock were reserved for issuance: 1,420,700 shares issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Class B Common Stock; 100,000 shares issuable upon conversion of a zero coupon convertible subordinated note; and __________ shares issuable upon exercise of options granted or to be granted under the Company's Stock Option Plan. The foregoing amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation is proposed in order to provide the Board of Directors with the flexibility and the means to issue additional shares of Class A Common Stock in connection with future stock dividends or stock splits, -16- 19 acquisitions, management incentive or employee benefit plans and other general corporate purposes without further shareholder action. Currently, the Company has available for future issuance only 3,316,749 shares of the Class A Common Stock which have not otherwise been reserved for specific purposes. From time to time in the past the Board of Directors has considered the advisability of declaring a stock dividend as a possible method of enhancing the attractiveness and marketability of the Class A Common Stock. The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides that the declaration of a stock dividend consisting of shares of Class A Common Stock to the holders of Class A Common Stock must be accompanied by a corresponding stock dividend consisting of Class B Common shares to the holders of Class B Common Stock, which would not result in the dilution of the voting power of either of these groups of shareholders. The declaration of any stock dividends or splits in the future is solely within the discretion of the Board of Directors and would be dependent upon stock prices, market conditions and other factors deemed appropriate by the Board. The Company has no present plans, agreements or arrangements for the issuance of the additional authorized shares of the Class A Common Stock in the immediate future except for a possible share dividend. The proposed amendment will increase the number of authorized shares of Class A Common Stock available for future issuance by 7,500,000 shares. Such issuances of Class A Common Stock would, in most cases, be at the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company at such prices or for such consideration as is deemed appropriate by the Board, without the necessity of further shareholder approval except to the extent required by the Certificate of Incorporation, the provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law or other applicable laws and regulations or as otherwise deemed appropriate by the Board. The rules of the New York Stock Exchange, on which the Class A Common Stock is presently listed, include a requirement that the Company obtain shareholder approval as a prerequisite to the Exchange's approval of the listing of additional shares to be issued by the Company under certain circumstances or in certain transactions. The availability for issuance of additional shares of the Class A Common Stock, and any issuance thereof, could render more difficult or discourage a future transaction not supported by the Board which is designed to acquire control of the Company or remove its management through merger, tender offer, proxy contest or other means. Thus, the amendment could be characterized as having an anti-takeover effect. For example, the issuance of shares of the Class A Common Stock in a public or private sale, merger or similar transaction would increase the number of outstanding shares, thereby increasing the potential cost of attempting to gain control of the Company or otherwise inhibiting or rendering impossible such an attempt. The Company is not aware of any effort to acquire -17- 20 control of the Company and, therefore, the proposed amendment is not the result of any such effort. Existing shareholders do not have preemptive rights with respect to future issuances of stock by the Company and could have their respective interests in the Company diluted by such issuances with respect to any or all of the following: earnings per share, voting, liquidation rights, and book and market value per share. Other than as described above, while the Company has no present plans for the issuance of either class of the Common Stock, the Board of Directors will, in the exercise of its fiduciary duties, weigh all of these factors carefully, together with the needs and prospects of the Company, before committing to an issuance of further shares not requiring shareholder approval. Approval of the proposed amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes of the outstanding Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, and the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes of the votes of the outstanding Class A Common Stock, voting as a separate class. The members of the Patrick family have indicated that they are in favor of the proposed amendment and that they will vote their shares of both classes of the Common Stock in favor of its adoption. As of March 15, 1995, the Patrick family owned shares representing __% of the total combined voting power of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES OF CLASS A COMMON STOCK. OTHER MATTERS The Board of Directors does not know of any other matters to be presented for action at the meeting. If any other business should properly come before the meeting, the persons named in the accompanying form of proxy intend to vote thereon in accordance with their best judgement. Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Act") requires the Company's directors and executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company's equity securities to file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding beneficial ownership of Common Stock and other equity securities of the Company. To the Company's knowledge, based solely on a review of copies of such reports furnished to the Company and written representations that no other reports were required, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 1994, all officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial owners complied with the Section 16(a) -18- 21 filing requirements of the Act, with the exception of one late report on Form 5 filed by Michael W. Patrick. INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS Management has selected Ernst & Young LLP as its independent accountants for the current year. Representatives of Ernst & Young LLP are expected to be present at the meeting and will have the opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders.
