EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 12 (“Amendment No. 12”) amends the Schedule 13D first filed on March 28, 2011, and as amended subsequently (the “Schedule 13D”), by Cinemark Holdings, Inc.

This Amendment No. 12 reflects changes to Items 3, 4 and 5 of the Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have their respective meanings under the Schedule 13D.

Item 3 is hereby amended to add the following:

On April 13, 2022, pursuant to the Common Unit Adjustment Agreement, the Reporting Person received, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Cinemark USA, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary Cinemark Media, Inc., 529,247 newly issued NCM Units in accordance with the 2021 Annual Adjustment.
