AMC NETWORKS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
AMC Networks Inc., together with its direct and indirect subsidiaries are referred to herein collectively as “we,” “our,” “AMC Networks,” or the “Company.”
On January 31, 2014, certain subsidiaries of the Company, purchased substantially all of Chellomedia, the international content division of Liberty Global plc, for a purchase price of €750 million (approximately $1.0 billion), subject to adjustments for working capital, cash, and indebtedness acquired and for the purchase of certain equity method investments. We funded the purchase price with cash on hand and also borrowed an additional $600 million under our term loan A facility.
The following pro forma financial information is based on the historical consolidated financial statements of AMC Networks and the historical combined financial statements of Chellomedia Group (a combination of certain programming and content distribution subsidiaries and assets purchased from Liberty Global plc) and is intended to provide information about how the acquisition of Chellomedia Group and related financing may have affected AMC Networks' historical consolidated financial statements if they had closed as of January 1, 2012, in the case of the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations information, and as of September 30, 2013, in the case of the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet information. The pro forma financial information is based on available information and assumptions that we believe are reasonable. The pro forma financial information is for illustrative and informational purposes only and is not intended to represent or be indicative of what our financial condition or results of operations would have been had the transactions described above occurred on the dates indicated. The pro forma financial information also should not be considered representative of our future financial condition or results of operations.
We have applied acquisition accounting to Chellomedia. Chellomedia Group's assets and liabilities were recorded at their estimated fair values. Pro forma purchase price allocation adjustments have been made for the purpose of providing pro forma financial information based on current estimates and currently available information, and are subject to revision based on final determinations of fair value and final allocation of purchase price to the assets and liabilities of the business acquired.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations do not reflect the realization of any expected cost savings and other synergies resulting from the acquisition as a result of any cost saving initiatives planned subsequent to the completion of the acquisition nor do they reflect any nonrecurring costs directly attributable to the acquisition. Total direct acquisition costs amounted to approximately $22 million of which $19 million was incurred subsequent to September 30, 2013 and $3 million was incurred and adjusted in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations as of September 30, 2013, as these costs are nonrecurring costs.
Assumptions underlying the pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying notes and should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements contained in the AMC Networks' annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 and the AMC Networks' quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 and Chellomedia Group's historical combined financial statements included in Exhibit 99.1 contained in this Form 8-K/A.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In thousands, except per share amounts)
(1) Basis of Presentation
AMC Networks Inc., together with its direct and indirect subsidiaries are referred to herein collectively as “we,” “our,” “AMC Networks,” or the “Company.”
The pro forma financial information is based on the historical consolidated financial statements of AMC Networks and the historical combined financial statements of Chellomedia Group (a combination of certain programming and content distribution subsidiaries and assets purchased from Liberty Global plc) and is intended to provide information about how the acquisition of Chellomedia Group and related financing may have affected AMC Networks' historical consolidated financial statements if they had closed as of January 1, 2012, in the case of the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations information, and as of September 30, 2013, in the case of the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet information. The pro forma financial information is based on available information and assumptions that we believe are reasonable. The pro forma financial information is for illustrative and informational purposes only and is not intended to represent or be indicative of what our financial condition or results of operations would have been had the transactions described above occurred on the dates indicated. The pro forma financial information also should not be considered representative of our future financial condition or results of operations.
We applied acquisition accounting to Chellomedia. Chellomedia Group's assets and liabilities were recorded at their estimated fair values. Preliminary purchase price allocation adjustments have been made for the purpose of providing pro forma financial information based on current estimates and currently available information, and are subject to revision based on final determinations of fair value and final allocation of purchase price to the assets and liabilities of the business acquired.
The historical combined financial statements of Chellomedia Group were translated into US dollars for balance sheet accounts using the spot rate in effect at the balance sheet date and for revenue and expense accounts using the average exchange rates in effect during the applicable periods.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements of AMC Networks included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 and quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 and Chellomedia Group's historical combined financial statements included in Exhibit 99.1 contained in this Form 8-K/A.
(2) Acquisition of Chellomedia
On January 31, 2014, certain subsidiaries of the Company, purchased substantially all of Chellomedia, the international content division of Liberty Global plc ("Liberty Global"), for a purchase price of €750 million (approximately $1.0 billion), subject to adjustments for working capital, cash, and indebtedness acquired and for the purchase of certain equity method investments. We funded the purchase price with cash on hand and also borrowed an additional $600,000 under our term loan A facility.
The acquisition provides AMC Networks with television channels that are distributed to more than 390 million subscribers in over 130 countries and span a wide range of programming genres, most notably movie and entertainment networks. The acquisition of Chellomedia's operating businesses include: Chello Central Europe, Chello Latin America, Chello Multicanal, Chello Zone, the broadcast solutions unit, Chello DMC, and the ad sales unit, Atmedia. The acquisition provides us with the opportunity to accelerate and enhance our international expansion strategy. We view this international opportunity as one that has the potential to provide long-term growth and value.
The estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of September 30, 2013 presented in the table below were based on a preliminary valuation and our estimates and assumptions are subject to change. The primary estimated fair values that are not yet finalized relate to the valuation of intangible assets, property and equipment and noncontrolling interests acquired.

(1) The cash consideration transferred is subject to adjustments for working capital, net debt acquired and for the certain equity method investments that were not acquired at the acquisition date.
(3) Acquisition Related Financing
On December 16, 2013, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement, which amends and restates AMC Networks’ prior credit agreement dated June 30, 2011 in its entirety.
The amended and restated credit agreement provides us with senior secured credit facilities consisting of (a) an initial $880,000 term loan A that was used by AMC Networks to retire the then outstanding term loan A facility provided under the June 30, 2011 original credit agreement, (b) a subsequent $600,000 term loan A which was drawn on January 31, 2014 upon the satisfaction of certain conditions related to consummation of AMC Networks’ acquisition of Chellomedia, and (c) a $500,000 revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility was not drawn upon on December 16, 2013 and remained undrawn at January 31, 2014.
The interest rate applied to the $600,000 principal amount for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations is 2.16%, which is based on the rate in effect when drawn on January 31, 2014.
