Regal Guest Response System(SM) Launched in 13 Theatres; New Customer Service Initiative from Regal Entertainment Group

KNOXVILLE, Tenn.--()--Aug. 2, 2006--Regal Entertainment Group (NYSE:RGC), a leading motion picture exhibitor owning and operating the largest theatre circuit in the United States, today announced details of the Regal Guest Response System(SM) (RGRS). With RGRS, patrons can utilize an in-theatre paging device to alert management of any disturbances in an auditorium. In addition to Regal's existing program of auditorium checks by staff members, the RGRS provides another way for management to be better informed and to react more quickly.

"As a leader in the movie exhibition industry, Regal is proud to announce another innovation in guest service. Regal Entertainment Group wants to ensure that our patrons have the best possible moviegoing experience in our theatres. If something needs attention, we want to know about it and respond as quickly as possible," stated Dick Westerling, Regal Entertainment Group Senior Vice President of Marketing and Advertising. "With the Regal Guest Response System, our patrons provide us extra eyes and ears, and can immediately report concerns without leaving their seat. The Guest Response System is a great addition to our guest service initiatives."

“With the Regal Guest Response System, our patrons provide us extra eyes and ears, and can immediately report concerns without leaving their seat. The Guest Response System is a great addition to our guest service initiatives.”

Regal Entertainment Group theatres participating in the Guest Response System invite selected patrons to carry a paging device with them into the auditorium. The Guest Response device is a hand-held pager with four buttons. Each button alerts local management of a different problem such as: sound, picture, disturbance or piracy. When the patron pushes a button, a message goes to a device worn by a manager which tells them the nature of the concern, and in which auditorium.

The Guest Response System is currently being tested in 13 Regal Entertainment Group theatres across the country. After evaluating input from both managers and guests, Regal intends to roll out the program nationwide.
