KNOXVILLE, Tenn. & PARK RIDGE, N.J.--(Business Wire)--
Regal Entertainment Group, the largest motion picture exhibitor in the world,
and Sony Electronics announced an agreement for the installation of Sony 4K
digital projection systems across its entire circuit over the next 3 to 5 years,
which will create the most extensive 4K deployment to date.

"The rollout of these Sony 4K systems gives Regal the opportunity to utilize the
latest technology to provide our patrons the best available presentation," said
Amy Miles, Regal Entertainment Group`s incoming chief executive officer. "Sony`s
state-of-the-art 4K systems produce the highest levels of resolution, contrast
and overall image quality."

Approximately 1,500 of the Regal screens will also be outfitted for 3D digital
projection, using Sony`s newly introduced dual-lens adaptor technology.

"Regal has always been at the forefront of merging technology with entertainment
to create a dynamic movie-going experience," said Gary Johns, vice president and
head of Sony Electronics` digital cinema business. "The innovative design and
capabilities of the 4K projectors are a perfect fit for supporting their
commitment to deliver not only the highest-quality 2D and 3D digital projection,
but also alternative content, live theatrical events and more."

Sony 4K projectors offer the highest image resolution of all projection
technologies, producing 8.8 million pixels. 4K technology provides image
resolution four times greater than 2K projection systems and slightly more than
four times greater than high-definition.

The Regal and Sony agreement is part of an initiative being led by Digital
Cinema Implementation Partners, LLC (DCIP), an organization formed in 2007 by
Regal Entertainment Group, AMC Entertainment and Cinemark USA, Inc. DCIP is
charged with planning and implementing the deployment of digital cinema.
