(e) 2007 Base Salaries and 2007 Bonus Targets for Named Executive Officers

On March 26, 2007, the Compensation and Nominating Committee (the “Committee”) of Carmike Cinemas, Inc. (the “Company”), in consultation with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (other than with respect to the Chief Executive Officer’s own compensation), finalized and approved the 2007 base salaries and the financial and operating goals related to the 2007 cash bonus targets for the Company’s named executive officers.

In particular, the Committee finalized and approved the 2007 base salaries for the named executive officers which, other than with respect to the Chief Executive Officer, are not set forth in written agreements. Base salaries are generally subjective, but the factors considered by the Committee and the Chief Executive Officer included an assessment of competitive market practices, individual performance over time and each individual’s role and responsibilities in the Company. The amounts of the base salaries, effective April 1, 2007, for the named executive officers are set forth in Exhibit 10.1, which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

The Committee also finalized and approved financial and operating goals related to the 2007 cash bonus targets for the Company’s named executive officers. The financial goals are related to the achievement of specified levels of bonus EBITDA, and the operating goals relate to the achievement of certain non-financial objectives, including (i) Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404 goals; (ii) financial reporting matters; (iii) digital cinema installation and alternative entertainment implementation; (iv) capital expenditure goals; and (v) achievement of various cost control measures. The amounts of the total 2007 cash bonus targets for the named executive officers are set forth in Exhibit 10.2, which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
