IMPORTANT:

SUBJECT TO CERTAIN EXCEPTIONS, THIS PAL IS NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN OR INTO AUSTRALIA, CANADA, NEW ZEALAND, THE UNITED STATES, OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION WHERE TO DO SO WOULD BREACH ANY APPLICABLE LAW OR REGULATION (THE “EXCLUDED TERRITORIES”), THIS PAL, THE NIL PAID RIGHTS, THE FULLY PAID RIGHTS AND THE RIGHTS ISSUE SHARES OF THE COMPANY TO WHICH IT RELATES HAVE NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (AS AMENDED) (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR UNDER THE APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES OR ANY OF THE OTHER EXCLUDED TERRITORIES. SUBJECT TO CERTAIN EXCEPTIONS, NEITHER THE NIL PAID RIGHTS, THE FULLY PAID RIGHTS, THE RIGHTS ISSUE SHARES NOR THIS PAL MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, TAKEN UP, EXERCISED, RESOLD, RENOUNCED, TRANSFERRED OR DELIVERED, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, WITHIN THE UNITED STATES OR ANY OF THE OTHER EXCLUDED TERRITORIES. PERSONS INTO WHOSE POSSESSION THIS PAL AND/OR ANY ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENTS COMES SHOULD INFORM THEMSELVES ABOUT AND OBSERVE ANY SUCH RESTRICTIONS. THE ATTENTION OF EXCLUDED SHAREHOLDERS AND ANY PERSON (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, A NOMINEE OR TRUSTEE) WHO HAS A CONTRACTUAL OR LEGAL OBLIGATION TO FORWARD THIS PAL OR ANY ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENTS TO ANY JURISDICTION OUTSIDE THE UNITED KINGDOM IS DRAWN TO SECTION 9 OF PART II (DETAILS OF THE RIGHTS ISSUE) OF THE PROSPECTUS.

If you are in any doubt as to the action you should take, you are recommended to seek your own personal financial advice from your stockbroker, bank manager, solicitor, accountant, fund manager or other appropriate independent financial adviser, who is authorised under FSMA if you are in the United Kingdom or, if not, from another appropriately authorised independent financial adviser. If you sell or have sold or otherwise transferred all of your Existing Ordinary Shares (other than ex-rights) held in certificated form before 8.00 a.m. on 30 January 2014 (the “Ex-Rights Date”) please send this document (duly renounced) as soon as possible to the purchaser or transferee or to the bank, stockbroker or other agent through whom the sale or transfer was effected for onward delivery to the purchaser or transferee. This document should not, however, be distributed, forwarded to or transmitted in or into any jurisdiction where to do so might constitute a violation of local securities laws or regulations, including but not limited to (subject to certain exceptions) the United States and any of the other Excluded Territories. If you sell or have sold or otherwise transferred only part of your holding of Existing Ordinary Shares (other than ex-rights) held in certificated form before the Ex-Rights Date, please contact the bank, stockbroker or other agent through whom the sale or transfer was effected immediately. You should also refer to the instructions regarding split applications in Part II (Details of the Rights Issue) of the Prospectus and in note 2 on page 3 of this PAL.

Applications have been made for the Rights Issue Shares (nil and fully paid) to be admitted to the premium segment of the Official List of the UKLA and to be admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange’s main market for listed securities. It is expected that Admission of the Rights Issue Shares (nil paid) will become effective, and that dealings in the Rights Issue Shares (nil paid) on the London Stock Exchange will commence at 8.00 a.m. on 30 January 2014. If Admission of the Rights Issue Shares has not become effective by 8.00 a.m. on such date (or such later time and/or date as the Company and the Banks may agree in advance in writing, being not later than 13 February 2014) this PAL shall cease to be of value and thereafter shall be of no effect, the provisional entitlement to Rights Issue Shares will lapse and any payments received will be returned without interest.

To accept this provisional allotment in full, please return the whole of this PAL with a cheque or banker’s draft, duly endorsed, for the full amount payable to “Capita Registrars Limited – re Cineworld Group plc – Rights Issue” and crossed “A/C Payee Only” in the reply-paid envelope to arrive not later than 11.00 a.m. on 13 February 2014. Such payments will be held by Capita Asset Services in accordance with the terms of Capita Asset Services’ engagement as Receiving Agent. If you wish to have the Rights Issue Shares registered in your name you do not have to complete any of the details in the rest of this PAL. The fully paid PAL will be returned to you only if you want to deal in your Fully Paid Rights. If you elect to hold your Rights Issue Shares in certificated form, the next document you will receive with regard to the Rights Issue Shares will be a share certificate for your Rights Issue Shares.

Portions of Rights Issue Shares have not been allotted and fractional entitlements have been rounded down to the nearest whole number of Rights Issue Shares. You have the right to acquire the Rights Issue Shares provisionally allotted to you at a price of 230 pence per Rights Issue Share, payable in full on acceptance, in the manner set out in note 3 below by no later than 11:00 a.m. on 13 February 2014.

Except as provided in paragraph II below, persons wishing to accept the provisional allotment of all of the Rights Issue Shares to which they are entitled should return the whole of this PAL, together with a cheque or banker's draft in pounds sterling for the full amount payable shown in Box 3 on page 1 of this document, by post to Capita Asset Services at the address set out on page 1 so as to arrive as soon as possible and in any event so as to be received no later than 11:00 a.m. on 13 February 2014, being the latest time and date for acceptance and payment in full.

If requested, by indicating in Box 4 on page 4 of this document, this PAL duly receipted will subsequently be returned to the full amount registered holder (or to the person making the payment detailed in Box 5 on page 4). Return of the PAL with payment in full will constitute acceptance of the provisional allotment upon the terms and subject to the conditions in the Prospectus and this PAL and subject to the Company's Articles. Save as stated in the Prospectus, if this PAL, accompanied by payment in full for the Rights Issue Shares provisionally allotted, has not been received by 11:00 a.m. on 13 February 2014, whether from the original allottee or any other person in whose favour the rights have been remounsed, the provisional allotment and the offer contained in the Prospectus will be deemed to have been declined and will lapse.

Notwithstanding the above, the Joint Bookrunners may cease to endeavour to procure any such acquired if, in their good faith opinion, it becomes that any such acquired can be procured at such a price and by such time, if and to the extent that acquires for Rights Issue Shares cannot be procured on the basis outlined above, the relevant Rights Issue Shares will be acquired by the Underwriters or their agents underwriters at the rights issue price pursuant to the terms of the underwriters' reserve policy, premium for the aggregate of the Rights Issue Price and the expenses of procuring acquired (including any applicable brokerage and commissioning and amounts of value added tax) shall be paid (without interest) to the person whose name and address appears on page 1 of this document pro rata to the relevant lapsed provisional allotments, save that amounts of less than 03:00 per holding will not be so paid, but will be aggregated and retained for the ultimate benefit of the Company by Capita Asset Services. Holdings of Ordinary Shares in certificates and uncertificated form will be treated as being held by different persons for these purposes. None of the Company, the Joint Bookrunners, nor any person responsible for procuring acquired or seeking to procure such acquired shall be responsible, or have any liability whatsoever, for any loss or damage (actual or alleged) arising from the terms or timing of any such acquisitions, or the procuring thereof, or any decision not to endeavour to procure acquired or any failure to procure any acquired. The Company may elect, with the agreement of the Joint Bookrunners, but shall not be obliged, to treat as valid (a) PALs and accompanying remittances for the full amount due which are not received through the post prior to 11:00 a.m. on 13 February 2014 (the cover bearing a legible postmark not later than 11:00 a.m. on 13 February 2014) and (b) acceptances in respect of which a remittance is received prior to 11:00 a.m. on 13 February 2014 from an authorised person (as defined in section 31(2) of the FSBA) identifying the shares concerned and undertaking to lodge the relevant PAL duly completed by not later than 11:00 a.m. on 13 February 2014 and such PAL is lodged by that time. The Company and the Joint Bookrunners may also (in their absolute discretion) treat a PAL as valid and binding on the person(s) by whom or on whose behalf it is lodged even if it is not completed in accordance with the relevant instructions or not accompanied by any such payment. The Company may, in its discretion, be responsible for the return of the return of the original PAL to the original owner or the United States or electronic transfer account in, despatched from, or that provided an address for delivery of definitive share certificates for Rights Issue Shares in, the United States or any of the other Exclusive Territories. You may accept all or any of the Rights Issue Shares offered to you. If you wish to accept only part of your allotment, you should first apply for split PALS in accordance with the instructions on page 3. All payments made must be made in pounds sterling by cheque or banker's draft and should be made payable to "Capita Registrars Limited - re: Cireworld Group plc - Rights Issue" and crossed "AC pays only". Cheques must be drawn on the personal account to which you have sole or joint title to the funds. Cheques or banker's drafts must be drawn on a bank or building society in the United Kingdom or the Channel Islands which is either a settlement member of the Cheque and Credit Clearing Company Limited, or the CHAPS Clearing Company Limited or which has arranged for its cheques and banker's drafts to be cleared through the facilities provided by any of those companies and must bear the appropriate sort code in the top right hand corner. Such payments will be held by Capita Asset Services, on behalf of the Company, in accordance with the term of Capita Asset Services' engagement as Receiving Agent.

Third party cheques will not be accepted with the exception of building society cheques or banker's drafts where the building society or bank has confirmed the name of the account holder by stamping or endorsing the cheque or draft to such effect. The account name should be the same as that shown on the application. Post-elded cheques will not be accepted. Cheques or banker's drafts will be presented for payment upon receipt. The Joint Bookrunners and the Company reserve the right to instruct Capita Asset Services to seek special clearance of cheques and banker's drafts to allow value to be obtained for remittances at the earliest opportunity. No interest will be paid on payments made before they are due. It is a term of the Rights Issue that cheques shall be honoured on first presentation and the Company may elect to treat as invalid acceptances in respect of which cheques are not so honoured. All documents, cheques and banker's drafts sent through the post will be sent at the risk of the vendor. Payments via CHAPS, BACS or electronic transfer account will be presented. You should not send cash. It is a term of the Rights Issue that, to ensure compliance with the Money Laundering Regulations, Capita Asset Services may require, at its absolute discretion, verification of the identity of the person by whom or on whose behalf a PAL is lodged with payment (which requirements are relevant to below as the "verification of identity requirements"). The person(s) (the "applicant") who, by the act, a PAL with payment, as described above, shall (a) the allotment of the Rights Issue Shares (the "relevant shares") comprised in such PAL (being the provisional allottee or, in the case of renunciation, the person named in such PAL) shall thereby be deemed to agree to provide Capita Asset Services and/or the Company with such information and other evidence as they or either of them may require to satisfy the verification of identity requirements and agreed for Capita Asset Services to make a search using a credit reference agency for the purpose of confirming such identity; where deemed necessary a record of the search will be retained.

If Capita Asset Services determines that the verification of identity requirements apply to an acceptance of an allotment and the verification of identity requirements have not been satisfied (which Capita Asset Services shall in its absolute discretion determine) by 11:00 a.m. on 13 February 2014, the Company may, in its absolute discretion, and without prejudice to any other rights of the Company, treat the acceptance as invalid in which event the application monies will be returned (at the applicant's risk) without interest to the account of the bank or building society on which the relevant cheque or banker's draft was drawn. If the acceptance is not treated as invalid and the verification of identity requirements are not satisfied within such period, being not less than seven days after a request for evidence of identity is despatched to the applicant, as the Company may in its absolute discretion allow, the Company will be entitled to make arrangements (in its absolute discretion as to manner, timing and terms) to sell the relevant shares (and for that purpose the Company will be expressly authorised to act as agent of the applicant). Any proceeds of sale (net of expenses) of the relevant shares which shall be issued to and registered in the name of the purchaser(s) or an amount equivalent to the original payment, whichever is the lower, will be held by the Company on trust for the applicant, subject to the requirements of the Money Laundering Regulations. Capita Asset Services is entitled in its absolute discretion to determine whether the verification of identity requirements apply to any applicant and whether such requirements have been satisfied, further the Company may, in its discretion, make a written order in accordance with the terms of the contract.

Return of a PAL with the appropriate remittance will constitute a warranty from the applicant that the Money Laundering Regulations will not be breached by acceptance of such remittance and an undertaking by the applicant to provide promptly to the Receiving Agent such information as may be specified by the Receiving Agent as being required for the purpose of the Money Laundering Regulations. If the verification of identity requirements apply, failure to provide the necessary evidence of identity may result in the acceptance being treated as invalid or in delays in the despatch of a receipted fully-paid PAL or a share certificate.

No person receiving a copy of this PAL and/or the Prospectus and/or receiving a credit of Nil Paid Rights to a stock account in CREST within a bank or financial institution in any territory other than the United Kingdom may treat the same as constituting an invitation or offer to him, nor should he in any event use this PAL or deal with the Nil Paid Rights or Fully Paid Rights in CREST unless, in the relevant territory, such an invitation or offer could lawfully be made to him or this PAL (cust) lawfully be dealt with without contravention of any registration or other legal requirements. In such circumstances, this PAL and the Prospectus are to be treated as sent for information only and should not be copied or redistributed.

RENUNCIATION, SPLITTING AND REGISTRATION

1. RENUNCIATION

This PAL may, unless prohibited by the laws of certain overseas jurisdictions, be renounced by an original allottee in whole, but not in part only, in favour of one person (or several persons as joint holders) by completing and signing Form X on page 4 (if not already marked "Original Duly Renounced") and passing the entire PAL (but, subject to certain limited exceptions, not into the United States or any other Excluded Territory) to your stockbroker or bank or other appropriate financial adviser or to the transferee. If this PAL has been renounced before the payment due on or before 11.00 a.m. on 13 February 2014 has been made, you must lodge the entire PAL accompanied by the remittance due together with Form Y duly completed to Capita Asset Services at the delivery/enquiry address set out on page 1 by no later than 11.00 a.m. on 13 February 2014. If you wish to deposit shares into CREST please complete the CREST Deposit Form on page 4 and, on receipt of your Nil Paid Rights, arrange to make payment through CREST by no later than 11.00 a.m. on 13 February 2014. Registration of renunciation cannot be effected unless and until payment of the amount has been made in full as set out in note 3 on page 2. This PAL will cease to be renounceable at 11.00 a.m. on 13 February 2014. If you wish to take up some of the Nil Paid Rights only and sell or transfer the remainder, or you wish to transfer all of the Nil Paid Rights or (if appropriate) Fully Paid Rights but not all to the same person, you should first apply for split PALs in accordance with the instructions in note 2 on this page 3. The Company reserves the right to refuse to register any renunciation by or in favour of any person in respect of whom it believes such renunciation may violate applicable legal or regulatory requirements, including (without limitation) any renunciation in the name of a person with an address outside the UK.

Notes for completion of Form X

All joint allottees must sign. Any forms completed under a power of attorney must be accompanied by a certified copy of the power of attorney. A company should execute under its common seal (where available) which should be affixed in accordance with its articles of association or other regulations. Alternatively, a company to which section 44 of the Companies Act 2006 applies may execute this PAL by a director and the company secretary, by two directors of the company or by a director of a company in the presence of a witness who attests the signature, signing the PAL and bearing the name of the company above their or his signatures. Each of the officers signing the PAL should state the office which he or she holds under their signatures and any witness should state his names and address. Before signing, please read note 9 on page 2 of this document relating to Overseas Shareholders. If all the Rights Issue Shares are to be registered in the name of the person(s) on page 1 of this document, Form X should not be completed. In the case of split PALS, Form X will be endorsed "Original Duly Renounced".

2. SPLITTING AND TRANSFER

This PAL cannot be renounced in part only but if you wish to take up some but not all of your Nil Paid Rights and to transfer the remainder, or you wish to transfer all of the Nil Paid Rights or (if appropriate) Fully Paid Rights, but not all to the same person, this PAL must be split. To split this PAL, it must be lodged with Capita Asset Services at the delivery/enquiry address set out on page 1 by no later than 3:00 p.m. on 11 February 2014, with Form X on page 4 of this document duly completed and signed, to be cancelled and exchanged for the split PALs required. The number of split PALs required and the number of Nil Paid Rights or (as appropriate) Fully Paid Rights to be comprised in each split PAL should be stated in an accompanying letter. The aggregate number of Nil Paid Rights or (as appropriate) Fully Paid Rights comprised in the split PALS must equal the number of Rights Issue Shares in Box 2 on page 1 of this document. Form X on the split PALs will be marked "Original Duly Renounced" before issue. On receipt of the split PALs you should keep the one representing any Nil Paid Rights or (as appropriate) Fully Paid Rights which you wish to retain (if any) and send the other(s) to the person(s) to or through whom you are disposing of the remainder of the Rights Issue Shares provisionally allotted to you.

Alternatively, if you wish to take up some of your Nil Paid Rights without transferring the remainder, you should complete Form X on page 4 and return it by post to Capita Asset Services at the delivery/enquiry address set out on page 1 together with a covering letter confirming the number of Rights Issue Shares to be taken up and a cheque for the appropriate amount to be paid for this number of Rights Issue Shares. In this case, the PAL and payment must be received by Capita Asset Services by 3:00 p.m. on 11 February 2014, being the latest date and time for splitting Nil Paid Rights.

3. REGISTRATION UNDER RENOUNCED OR SPLIT PALS

If this PAL has been renounced or is a split PAL and your name(s) does not/do not appear as the original allottee(s) on page 1, to apply for registration for Fully Paid Rights in your name, Form Y or the CREST Deposit Form on page 4 (as appropriate) must be completed and this PAL must be lodged by no later than 11.00 a.m. on 13 February 2014 with Capita Asset Services at the address set out on page 1 and, provided payment has been made by 11.00 a.m. on 13 February 2014, registration will be effected by Capita Asset Services.

4. CONSOLIDATION

The Nil Paid Rights comprised in two or more PALs (duly renounced where applicable) may be registered in the name of one holder (or joint holders). To consolidate rights attached to two or more PALs, complete on one PAL Form Y on page 4 (the "Principal Letter") and attach a letter detailing each Allotment Number (as shown on page 1 of each PAL), the number of Rights Issue Shares represented by each PAL, the total number of PALs to be consolidated and the total number of Rights Issue Shares represented by all PALs to be consolidated. All the PALs to be consolidated must be lodged in one batch together. Each PAL so lodged (including the Principal Letter) must bear the Allotment Number of the Principal Letter in the box provided in Form Y on page 4.

5. DEPOSIT OF NIL PAID RIGHTS OR FULLY PAID RIGHTS INTO CREST

(i) The Nil Paid Rights or Fully Paid Rights (as appropriate) represented by this PAL may be converted into uncertificated form, that is, deposited into CREST (whether such conversion arises as a result of a renunciation of those rights or otherwise). Subject as provided in paragraph (ii) below, normal CREST procedures and timings apply in relation to any such conversion. You are recommended to refer to the CREST manual for details of such procedures. If you are a CREST sponsored member, you should contact your CREST sponsor.

(ii) The procedure for depositing the Nil Paid Rights or Fully Paid Rights (as appropriate) represented by this PAL into CREST, whether such rights are to be converted into uncertificated form in the name(s) of the person(s) whose name(s) and address(es) appear(s) on page 1 of this PAL or in the name(s) of the person(s) to whom this PAL has been renounced, is as follows: Form X and the CREST Deposit Form (both on page 4 of this document) will need to be completed and the PAL deposited by you or your CREST sponsor (as appropriate) with the CREST Courier and Sorting Service ("CCSS"). In addition, the normal CREST Stock Deposit procedures will need to be carried out, except that (a) it will not be necessary to complete and lodge a separate CREST Transfer Form (prescribed under the Stock Transfer Act 1963) with the CCSS and (b) only the whole of the Nil Paid Rights or Fully Paid Rights represented by this PAL may be deposited into CREST. If you wish to deposit only some of the Nil Paid Rights or Fully Paid Rights (as appropriate) represented by this PAL into CREST, you must first apply for split PALs in accordance with the instructions in note 2 on this page bearing in mind the latest time and date for depositing the Nil Paid Rights or Fully Paid Rights represented by this PAL into CREST. If the rights represented by more than one PAL are to be deposited, the CREST Deposit Form on each PAL must be completed and deposited. The consolidation procedure described in note 4 on this page must not be used. If you are a CREST sponsored member, you should contact your CREST sponsor.

(iii) A holder of Nil Paid Rights or Fully Paid Rights (as appropriate) represented by this PAL who is proposing to convert those rights into uncertificated form (whether following a renunciation of such rights or otherwise) is recommended to ensure that the conversion procedures are implemented in sufficient time to enable the person who is to hold or acquire rights in CREST following the conversion to take all necessary steps in connection with taking up the entitlement prior to 11.00 a.m. on 13 February 2014. In particular, having regard to normal processing times in CREST and on the part of Capita Asset Services, the latest recommended time for depositing a renounced PAL (with Form X and CREST Deposit Form on page 4 of the PAL duly completed) with the CCSS (in order to enable the person acquiring the Nil Paid Rights or the Fully Paid Rights in CREST, as a result of the conversion, to take all necessary steps in connection with taking up the entitlement prior to 11.00 a.m. on 13 February 2014) is 3.00 p.m. on 10 February 2014. If you are a CREST sponsored member, you should contact your CREST sponsor.

Note: Surrender of this PAL with (a) Form X purporting to have been signed by the same person(s) in whose name(s) it was issued or, in the case of a split PAL, marked "Original Duly Renounced", and (b) where applicable, Form Y or the CREST Deposit Form duly completed, shall be conclusive evidence in favour of the Company and Capita Asset Services of: (i) the right of the person(s) named in the Form Y or the CREST Deposit Form of this PAL to be registered as the holder(s) of the Rights Issue Shares comprised in this PAL; (ii) the title of the person(s) lodging this PAL to deal with the same and to receive split PALs and/or a share certificate or a deposit to their CREST member's account (as appropriate); and (iii) the authority of the person(s) completing Form Y or the CREST Deposit Form. All documents will be despatched by post at the risk of the person(s) entitled to them.

For the avoidance of doubt, each PAL deposited with the CCSS is not considered to be a bearer document unless delivered and liability is limited to standard stock deposit replacement costs in accordance with Euroclear's standard terms and conditions.

IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT YOUR RIGHTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH NOTE 3 ON PAGE 2 OF THIS DOCUMENT AND YOU DO NOT WISH TO RENOUNCE YOUR RIGHTS AS SET OUT IN NOTE 1 ON THIS PAGE 3, YOUR RIGHTS WILL LAPSE AND SUCH RIGHTS MAY BE OFFERED TO OTHER PERSONS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE ARRANGEMENTS SET OUT IN NOTE 3 ON PAGE 2.
