By notice to the Depositary dated November 12, 2010 and as set forth in this Notice, the Offeror has amended its offer dated July 20, 2010 (the “Original Offer”), as previously amended by the First Notice of Variation, the Second Notice of Variation, the Third Notice of Variation and the Fourth Notice of Variation, to purchase for cash UP TO ALL of the outstanding Lions Gate Shares, including Lions Gate Shares which become outstanding on the exercise of outstanding options, warrants or other rights to purchase Lions Gate Shares (other than Lions Gate Shares which become outstanding on the exercise of Rights).

This Notice should be read in conjunction with the Offer to Purchase and Circular, the First Notice of Variation, the Second Notice of Variation, the Third Notice of Variation, the Fourth Notice of Variation and the Letter of Acceptance and Transmittal and the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery that accompanied the Offer to Purchase and Circular (collectively, the “Offer Documents”), all the provisions of which are incorporated herein by reference, subject to the amendments thereto contained in this Notice.

In this Notice, unless the context requires otherwise or unless otherwise defined, terms denoted by initial capital letters and not defined have the meanings set forth in the Offer to Purchase and Circular, as amended by the First Notice of Variation, the Second Notice of Variation, the Third Notice of Variation and as further amended by the Fourth Notice of Variation. References in this Notice to the “Offer” shall refer to the Original Offer, as amended by the First Notice of Variation, the Second Notice of Variation, the Third Notice of Variation, the Fourth Notice of Variation, and as further amended by this Notice.

2. Recent Developments

On November 1, 2010, the Supreme Court of British Columbia dismissed the Icahn Group’s petition to set aside the July 20, 2010 transactions in which Lions Gate issued 16,236,305 Lions Gate Shares at a price of U.S.$6.20 per Lions Gate Share to an investment fund controlled by Mark Rachesky (the “Impugned Transactions”), a director and significant shareholder of Lions Gate. On November 2, 2010, the Icahn Group appealed this decision of the Supreme Court of British Columbia to the British Columbia Court of Appeal.

On November 5, 2010, a single judge of the British Columbia Court of Appeal denied the Icahn Group’s application for an order fixing a date for the hearing of its appeal in November 2010 or, in the alternative, an order fixing a date for the hearing of its appeal in December 2010 and directing that the 2010 annual meeting of Shareholders be held no earlier than January 21, 2011. A panel of three judges of the British Columbia Court of Appeal will hold a hearing on November 16, 2010 to review the denial of the Icahn Group’s application.

On November 8, 2010, Lions Gate filed a Form 8-K with the SEC stating that its 2010 annual meeting of Shareholders will be held on December 14, 2010 and that the record date for such meeting is November 12, 2010.

On November 9, 2010, the New York State Supreme Court (the “New York Court”) set December 3, 2010 as the date on which it will hear oral argument on the Offeror’s motion for a preliminary injunction prohibiting the fund controlled by Mark Rachesky from voting the Lions Gate Shares it acquired in the Impugned Transactions in any election of directors or other Shareholder vote. The New York Court indicated that it expects to issue a decision on that motion before the Shareholder meeting currently scheduled for December 14, 2010.


 

3. Other Amendments to the Offer to Purchase and Circular

Set forth below are amendments to the Offer to Purchase and Circular resulting from updated disclosure by Lions Gate in its Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2010, which was filed by Lions Gate with the SEC on November 9, 2010.

Summary Term Sheet

The third and fourth paragraphs of the question in the Summary Term Sheet entitled If the Lions Gate Common Shares Sought in Your Offer Are Deposited and Taken Up, What Will be the Effect of the Offer on Lions Gate? (found at pages 11 to 12 of the Offer to Purchase and Circular), as amended by the First Notice of Variation and the Third Notice of Variation, are deleted in their entirety and replaced by the following:

“The senior revolving credit facility and revolving film credit facility both provide that a “change in control” would be an event of default that would permit the lenders to accelerate the repayment of borrowings under such facilities and to enforce security interests in the collateral securing such debt. Lions Gate has stated that as of September 30, 2010 it had borrowings of U.S.$187 million outstanding under the senior revolving credit facility and borrowings of approximately U.S.$39.4 million outstanding under the revolving film credit facility. In addition, Lions Gate has stated that if the borrowings under the senior revolving credit facility and the revolving film credit facility were accelerated following an event of default that is not waived or cured, holders of the (i) convertible senior subordinated notes due 2024, (ii) convertible senior subordinated notes due 2025 issued in February 2005, (iii) convertible senior subordinated notes due 2025 issued in April 2009, and (iv) senior secured second-priority notes due 2016, each of which was issued by Lions Gate Entertainment Inc., a subsidiary of Lions Gate, and is guaranteed by Lions Gate, would have the right to accelerate such debt.

In addition, the (i) convertible senior subordinated notes due 2024, (ii) convertible senior subordinated notes due 2025 issued in February 2005, and (iii) convertible senior subordinated notes due 2025 issued in April 2009 become subject, upon a “change in control”, to the right of the holders of such notes to require Lions Gate Entertainment Inc. to repurchase such notes at 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, and, in certain circumstances, to a make whole premium. Under the terms of the senior secured second-priority notes due 2016, upon the occurrence of a “change in control”, Lions Gate Entertainment Inc. must make an offer to purchase all of the notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of such notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Under the terms of each of the foregoing notes, a “change in control” includes the acquisition of beneficial ownership, directly or indirectly, by any person or group of more than 50% of the total voting power of the Lions Gate common shares. A “change in control” under the terms of any of the foregoing notes would also result in a default under the terms of the senior revolving credit facility and revolving film credit facility. Lions Gate has stated that as of September 30, 2010, U.S.$236.0 million principal amount of the senior secured second-priority notes due 2016 and U.S.$136.4 million aggregate principal amount of the convertible senior subordinated notes due 2024, the convertible senior subordinated notes due 2025 issued in February 2005, and the convertible senior subordinated notes due 2025 issued in April 2009 were outstanding, and as of September 6, 2010, another U.S.$79.9 million aggregate principal amount of the convertible senior subordinated notes due 2024, the convertible senior subordinated notes due 2025 issued in February 2005, and the convertible senior subordinated notes due 2025 issued in April 2009 were held by Lions Gate and its subsidiaries. In addition, Lions Gate has reported that as of September 6, 2010, its consolidated total indebtedness was approximately U.S.$883.9 million.”

Circular

The tenth and eleventh paragraphs of Section 2 of the Circular, “Lions Gate” (found at page 42 of the Circular), as amended by the First Notice of Variation and the Third Notice of Variation, are deleted in their entirety and replaced by the following:

“The Revolving Credit Agreement and the Revolving Film Credit Agreement both provide that a “change in control” would be an event of default that permits the lenders to accelerate the repayment of borrowings under those facilities and to enforce security interests in the collateral securing such debt. Lions Gate has stated that as of September 30, 2010 it had borrowings of U.S.$187 million outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement and borrowings of approximately U.S.$39.4 million outstanding under the Revolving Film Credit Agreement. In addition, Lions Gate has stated that if the borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement and the Revolving Film Credit Agreement were accelerated following an event of default that is not waived or cured, holders of the Notes, the 2025 Notes of April 2009 and the Second Lien Notes would have the right to accelerate the debts thereunder.

In addition, each of the (i) 2024 Notes, (ii) 2025 Notes, and (iii) 2025 Notes of April 2009 become subject, upon a “change of control”, to the right of the holders of the notes to require LGEI to repurchase the notes at 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, and, in certain circumstances, a make whole premium. Under the terms of the Second Lien Notes, upon the occurrence of a “change of control”, LGEI must make an offer to purchase all of the Second Lien Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Second Lien Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Under the terms of each of the foregoing notes, a “change of control” includes the acquisition of beneficial ownership, directly or indirectly, by any person or group of more than 50% of the total voting power of the Lions Gate Shares. A “change of control” under the terms of any of the foregoing notes would also result in a default under the terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement and Revolving Film Credit Agreement. Lions Gate has stated that as of September 30, 2010, U.S.$236.0 million principal amount of the Second Lien Notes and U.S.$136.4 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes and the 2025 Notes of April 2009 were outstanding, and as of September 6, 2010, another U.S.$79.9 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes and the 2025 Notes of April 2009 were held by Lions Gate and its subsidiaries. In addition, Lions Gate has reported that as of September 6, 2010, its consolidated total indebtedness was approximately U.S.$883.9 million.”
