PART III — NARRATIVE

Movie Gallery, Inc. (the “Company”) has determined that it is unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended October 5, 2008 (“Q3 2008 Form 10-Q”) by November 19, 2008, without unreasonable effort and expense. On October 16, 2007, the Company and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries (collectively, the “Reorganized Debtors”), filed voluntary petitions in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, Richmond Division (the “Bankruptcy Court”) seeking reorganization relief under the provisions of Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) (collectively, the “Cases”).

On December 22, 2007, the Reorganized Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court the Joint Plan of Reorganization of Movie Gallery, Inc. and Its Debtor Subsidiaries under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code and a related Disclosure Statement. On February 4, 2008, the Reorganized Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court amended versions of those documents, which were titled the First Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization of Movie Gallery, Inc. and Its Debtor Subsidiaries Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (as amended by the Second Amended Joint Plan of Movie Gallery, Inc. and Its Debtor Subsidiaries Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code filed with the Bankruptcy Court on February 18, 2008 and as may be further amended, referred to herein as the “Plan”) and a Disclosure Statement related to the Plan (the “Disclosure Statement”).

On February 5, 2008, the Bankruptcy Court approved the Disclosure Statement and authorized the Reorganized Debtors to begin soliciting votes on the Plan. On April 4, 2008, the Company issued a press release announcing that each class of creditors entitled to vote on the Plan voted to support the Plan. On April 10, 2008, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Plan, with certain technical modifications made thereto and as supplemented by certain plan supplements filed with the Bankruptcy Court. On May 20, 2008 (“the Effective Date”), the Reorganized Debtors announced that they had emerged successfully from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection after meeting all statutory requirements for their Plan.

Since the commencement of the Cases, the Reorganized Debtors were focused on stabilizing and restructuring their operations in accordance with their business plan, including identifying and closing certain of its under-performing video rental stores. At the same time, key personnel within the Company’s accounting and finance organization were actively involved with finalizing those necessary financing arrangements that enabled the Reorganized Debtors to exit from Chapter 11. In 2008, the Company has spent significant time preparing for confirmation of its Plan and the Reorganized Debtors’ emergence from Chapter 11, and subsequent to the Effective Date, implementing the post-emergence aspects of the Plan.

Since emergence from bankruptcy, the Company has devoted significant time to ensuring appropriate financing for the Company’s operations, including converting $158 million of debt to equity, re-establishing trade credit and determining the appropriate resolution of claims filed during Chapter 11. The Company has also had extensive change in its senior executive and financial leadership.

Additionally, and as a result of, among other things, the time-consuming process of reviewing inventories, leases, goodwill and other assets for possible impairment charges, and the Company’s adoption of the accounting requirements under AICPA Statement of Position 90-7, Financial Reporting of Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code (“SOP 90-7”), including the “fresh start” provisions of SOP 90-7, the Company is not able to timely file its Q3 2008 Form 10-Q without unreasonable effort or expense. The Company is making diligent efforts to file its Q3 2008 Form 10-Q as soon hereafter as possible.

Explanation Referred to in Part IV, Item (3) of Form 12b-25

Significant Changes in Results of Operations

The Company is required by Part IV, Item (3) of Form 12b-25 to provide as part of this filing an explanation regarding whether the results of operations expected to be reported for the quarterly period ended October 5, 2008 will reflect significant changes from its results of operations for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2007. The amounts and classification of certain items reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements will be materially different in Q3 2008 as a result of the consummation by the Reorganized Debtors of the transactions contemplated by the Plan. As a result of the adoption of the provisions of SOP 90-7, the Company’s consolidated financial statements for Q3 2008 will require, among other things, that assets and liabilities be restated to their fair values as of the Effective Date, which will impact the Company’s Balance Sheet, Statement of Operations, and Statement of Cash Flows. Therefore the Company’s Q3 2008 financial statements will not be comparable to those of prior periods. In addition, the results of operations that the Company will include in the Q3 2008 Form 10-Q need to be finalized by management and reviewed by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and are subject to the issues discussed in Part III of this notification. Except as described in this notification, the Company believes it is not appropriate to provide an estimate of those results at this time.
