Regal Entertainment Group and Real D Partner to Expand Regal’s Premium 3D Platform

Regal Entertainment Group, the owner and operator of the largest movie theater circuit in the world, and RealD 3D, the global leader in 3D, today announced an unprecedented partnership. The deal calls for a rollout of 1500 RealD 3D screens, bringing the RealD 3D screen count to over 3500. The rollout will allow most U.S. markets to have 3D capability and will commence upon the completion of the Digital Cinema Implementation Partners (DCIP) initiative. Regal and RealD will work together to market and develop the RealD premium 3D platform in key Regal markets and theatres throughout the U.S.

The consummation of the announced deal is subject to completion of definitive agreements and is contingent upon DCIP finalizing the necessary digital cinema conversion arrangements.
