OUR EXECUTIVES

Led by Chairman and founder Lee Roy Mitchell, Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) Tim Warner, President and Chief Operating Officer Robert Copple and President, Cinemark International Valmir Fernandes, our operational management team has many years of theatre operating experience, ranging from 18 to 56 years.

Changes in Executive Management Team in 2014

Effective January 21, 2014, Mr. Robert Copple assumed the position of President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company.

In 2014, we added to our management team by hiring Sean Gamble as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”). Mr. Gamble joined Cinemark after five years at NBCUniversal where he served as Executive Vice President and CFO and was responsible for Universal Picture’s global financial operations. His leadership experience and studio perspective provides critical support to the executive management team in developing and executing the company’s financial strategies.

2014 EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

2014 Say-on-Pay Voting Results

At the annual meeting of stockholders held in May 2014 (the “2014 Annual Meeting”), our executive compensation program garnered the support of approximately 97% of the votes cast by stockholders present in person or represented by proxy and were entitled to vote at the 2014 Annual Meeting. Given the high approval rate sof our executive compensation program, the Compensation Committee did not make any major structural changes to the program.

3 |  | CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC. |  | 2015 Proxy Statement

##### Table of Contents

The philosophy of our executive compensation program is to motivate, reward and retain executive talent by providing market aligned and performance-based compensation.

Key Considerations in Setting 2014 Executive Compensation

In determining the compensation of the executive officers for the 2014 fiscal year, the Compensation Committee considered the following:

| v |  | The performance period over which the Internal Rate of Return (“IRR”) is calculated, considering the Company’s growth plan and historical rates of return criteria; |

| v |  | The performance of the domestic and international segments of the Company; |

| v |  | Changing roles of Company executives and hiring of a new CFO; |

| v |  | Pay practices at peer group of companies; and |

| v |  | The competitive market, both domestic as well as international, for Company executives. |

Changes in Executive Compensation in 2014

Based on the above review, the Compensation Committee made the following decisions regarding executive compensation for the 2014 fiscal year:

| v |  | The performance period for the IRR for the performance awards was reduced to two years (from three years); the service requirement beyond the performance period was increased to two years (from one year), maintaining the same four-year overall vesting schedule; |

| v |  | Company entered into new employment agreements with Tim Warner and Robert Copple, effective January 21, 2014; |

| v |  | Company entered into an employment agreement with Sean Gamble effective August 25, 2014; |

| v |  | The annual base salary of Valmir Fernandes was raised by approximately $72,000 and his annual $30,000 expatriate allowance was rolled into his annual base salary. Mr. Fernandes’s annual cash incentive bonus target percentage was raised from 75% to 85% of his annual base salary. |

##### Table of Contents

In order to align each named executive officer’s compensation with Company and individual performance, and to provide the incentives necessary to attract, motivate and retain the executives that help drive the Company’s success, the Compensation Committee structured the executive compensation program in the following manner for the 2014 fiscal year:

Pay Element |  | Annual Base Salary |  | Annual Cash Incentive Bonus |  | Restricted Stock |  | Performance Award
Who Receives |  | All named executive officers
When Approved |  | Annually, at the end of the year prior to the covered year |  | Annually, first quarter of the year following the covered year |  | Annually, first quarter of the covered year
Form of Delivery |  | Cash |  | Equity
Type of Performance |  | Individual performance |  | Company performance based on Bonus Plan EBITDA achieved |  | Service |  | Company performance and service
Performance Period |  | 1 year |  | Typically, four years3 |  | 2 year Company performance + 2 year continued service
How Payout is Determined |  | N/A |  | Compensation Committee validates and approves the Bonus Plan EBITDA achieved by Company during the covered year |  | Service-based |  | Formulaic; includes IRR; Compensation Committee validates and approves IRR for the performance period
2014 Performance Measures |  | N/A |  | Bonus Plan EBITDA target was $618.2 million; Bonus Plan EBITDA achieved by Company was $602.6 million; annual cash incentive bonus approved by Compensation Committee at 83.3% of target |  | N/A |  | Target IRR for performance period from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2015 ranges from 8.5% to 12.5%

The following tables provide a summary of the changes in the terms of compensation for Messrs. Warner and Copple pursuant to their respective new employment agreements effective January 21, 2014 and the actual compensation amounts received for the 2014 fiscal year:

Tim Warner:

Compensation Element |  | Term Under 2012 Agreement |  | Term Under 2014 Agreement |  | 2014 Actuals
Annual Base Salary |  | Subject to annual review for increase but not decrease |  | Subject to annual review for increase but not decrease |  | $800,000 (annualized)
Annual Cash Incentive Bonus |  | Minimum target: 100% of annual base salary |  | Minimum target: 100% of annual base salary Maximum target: 150% of annual base salary |  | $666,400 (83.3% of target)

##### Table of Contents

Robert Copple:

Compensation Element |  | Term Under 2008 Agreement |  | Term Under 2014 Agreement |  | 2014 Actuals
Annual Base Salary |  | Subject to annual review for increase but not decrease |  | Subject to annual review for increase but not decrease |  | $600,000 (annualized)
Annual Cash Incentive Bonus |  | No minimum target |  | Minimum target: 100% of annual base salary Maximum target: 150% of annual base salary |  | $499,800 (83.3% of target)
Long-term Incentive Award |  | No minimum percentage |  | At least 150% of annual base salary; Time-based vesting not exceeding 4 years |  | Total grant date fair value: $899,980

Sean Gamble:

The terms of Mr. Gamble’s compensation pursuant to his employment agreement are as follows, including the actual compensation amounts received for the 2014 fiscal year:

Compensation Element |  | Term |  | 2014 Actuals
Annual Base Salary |  | Subject to annual review for increase but not decrease |  | $450,000 (annualized)
Annual Cash Incentive Bonus |  | Target: 75% of annual base salary |  | $117,077 (83.3% of target)
Long-term Incentive Award |  | No minimum percentage |  | Total grant date fair value of restricted stock: $249,992; No performance awards were granted

Since Mr. Gamble was hired eight months into the two-year performance period for the 2014 performance awards, the Compensation Committee did not grant him any performance awards. However, in line with our executive compensation philosophy, he was awarded restricted stock with a three-year vest schedule as part of his hiring package. It is expected that beginning 2015 the Compensation Committee will grant him performance awards and restricted stock with the typical four year vest schedule.

Alignment of pay with performance

Cinemark is committed to aligning pay with performance. The annual cash incentive bonus paid to the named executive officers for the 2014 fiscal year and the vest percentage of the performance awards granted in 2012, which were both determined to be less than 100% of their respective targets, demonstrate the Company’s commitment to pay-for-performance.

Annual Cash Incentive Bonus for 2014:

In March 2014, the Compensation Committee set the Company’s Bonus Plan EBITDA target at $618.2 million for purposes of the Cinemark Holdings, Inc. Performance Bonus Plan (the “Bonus Plan”). The Company achieved a Bonus Plan EBITDA of $602.6 million (the “Bonus Plan EBITDA”) which was calculated, similar to previous years, using reported Adjusted EBITDA of $596.5 million (the “Reported Adjusted EBITDA”) adjusted for annual cash incentive bonus compensation and severance expenses.

6 |  | CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC. |  | 2015 Proxy Statement

##### Table of Contents

Based on the Bonus Plan EBITDA achieved, the Compensation Committee determined that the annual cash incentive bonus would be paid at 83.3% of the target opportunity of each participant to the Bonus Plan. The table below provides the target annual cash incentive bonus opportunity of each of the named executive officers for the 2014 fiscal year and the 2014 actuals:

Name |  | Target Opportunity |  | 2014 Actuals
Lee Roy Mitchell |  | $ 885,897 |  | $ 737,953
Tim Warner |  | $ 800,000 |  | $ 666,400
Robert Copple |  | $ 600,000 |  | $ 499,800
Sean Gamble |  | $ 123,317 |  | $ 117,077
Valmir Fernandes* |  | $ 399,500 |  | $ 395,932

*Similar to previous years, Mr. Fernandes’s annual cash incentive bonus was calculated based on the average of worldwide Adjusted EBITDA and international Adjusted EBITDA performances as compared to target.

Vest of 2012 Performance Awards:

Based on the level of IRR achieved by the Company for the three-year performance period from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2014, the Compensation Committee determined that 76.67% of the maximum opportunity (115% of the target opportunity) of the performance awards (in the form of restricted stock units) granted in 2012 to Messrs. Warner, Copple and Fernandes shall vest. The table below provides the number of performance awards (maximum) granted in 2012 and the number of performance awards to vest, subject to continuous employment through March 8, 2016:

Name |  | Granted in 2012 |  | To Vest in 2016

(a) Stockholder of record: If your shares are registered in your name with our transfer agent, Wells Fargo Shareowner Services, you are a stockholder of record with respect to those shares. As a stockholder of record, you have the right to grant your proxy directly to us or to a third party, or to vote in person at the Annual Meeting.

(b) Stockholder who holds stock in street name: If your shares are held by a broker or by a bank, you are considered to be a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name.” As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker or bank on how to vote and you are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. Your broker or bank, as the record holder of your shares, may exercise discretionary authority to vote on “routine” items but may not vote on “non-routine” items without your instructions.

These proxy materials are being forwarded to you on behalf of your broker or bank. Your broker or bank has enclosed or provided voting instructions for you to use in directing the broker or bank on how to vote your shares. Since a beneficial owner in street name is not the stockholder of record, you may not vote these shares in person at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a “legal proxy” from the broker or bank that holds your shares, giving you the right to vote the shares at the Annual Meeting.

How many shares must be present to hold the Annual Meeting?

A majority of our outstanding Common Stock as of the Record Date must be present at the Annual Meeting in order to hold the Annual Meeting and conduct business. This is called a “quorum.” Unless a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting, no action may be taken at the Annual Meeting except the adjournment thereof until a later time. Shares are counted as present at the Annual Meeting if you are present and vote in person at the Annual Meeting, if you vote via the Internet, by telephone, or if you are represented by proxy. Abstentions and “broker non-votes” are counted as present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum.

What is a proxy and how does the proxy process operate?

A proxy is your legal designation of another person to vote the stock you own. The person(s) that you designate to vote your shares are called proxies. Robert Copple and Michael Cavalier of the Company have been designated as proxies for the Annual Meeting. The term “proxy” also refers to the written document or “proxy card” that you sign to authorize those persons to vote your shares.

By executing the proxy card, you authorize the above-named individuals to act as your proxies to vote your shares in the manner that you specify. The proxy voting mechanism is vitally important to us. In order for us to obtain the necessary stockholder approval of items, a quorum of stockholders must be represented at the Annual Meeting in person or by proxy. Since few stockholders can spend the time or money to attend stockholder meetings in person, voting by proxy is necessary to obtain a quorum and complete the stockholder vote. It is important that you attend the Annual Meeting in person or grant a proxy to vote your shares to assure a quorum is obtained so corporate business can be transacted. If a quorum is not obtained, we must postpone the Annual Meeting and solicit additional proxies, which is an expensive and time-consuming process.

What different methods can I use to vote?

If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote:

| v |  | Via the Internet or by telephone — Follow the instructions shown on your proxy card. Votes submitted via the Internet or by telephone must be received by 12 p.m. (noon), CDT, on June 3, 2015;

| v |  | By mail — Complete, sign, date and return the proxy card in the postage paid envelope provided so that it is received before the Annual Meeting; or

| v |  | In person — We will pass out written ballots at the Annual Meeting and you may deliver your completed and signed proxy card in person. Submitting your proxy or voting instructions, whether via the Internet, by telephone, or by mail will not affect your right to vote in person should you decide to attend the Annual Meeting.

13 |  | CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC. |  | 2015 Proxy Statement

##### Table of Contents

If you are a beneficial holder, you may vote:

| v |  | By instructing your bank or broker — You should receive a voting instruction card from your bank or broker which you must return with your voting instructions to have your shares voted. If you have not received a voting instruction card from your bank or broker, you may contact it directly to provide instructions on how you wish to vote. Voting instructions submitted by beneficial owners to brokers or banks via the Internet or by telephone must be received by 12 p.m. (noon), CDT, on June 3, 2015; or

| v |  | In person — If you wish to vote in person at the Annual Meeting, you will need to obtain a “legal proxy” form from your broker or bank that holds your shares of record and you must bring that document to the Annual Meeting.

What happens if I do not give specific voting instructions?

Stockholder of Record.

If you are a stockholder of record and you:

| v |  | Indicate when voting on the internet or by telephone that you wish to vote as recommended by the Board; or

| v |  | Sign and return a proxy card without specific voting instructions.

then the proxy holders will vote your shares in the manner recommended by the Board on all matters presented in this proxy statement and as the proxy holders may determine in their discretion with respect to any other matters properly presented for a vote at the Annual Meeting.

Beneficial Owner.

If you own shares through a broker or bank and do not provide voting instructions to the broker or bank holding your shares, your broker or bank may represent your shares at the Annual Meeting for purposes of obtaining a quorum. Your broker or bank may vote your shares in its discretion on some “routine matters”. However, with respect to “non-routine matters”, your broker or bank may not vote your shares for you. With respect to these “non-routine matters”, the aggregate number of unvoted shares is reported as “broker non-votes”.

Which ballot measures are called “routine” or “non-routine”?

Under the broker voting rules of the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2015 fiscal year (Item 2) is considered a “routine” matter and the election of directors (Item 1) and the non-binding, annual advisory vote on executive compensation (Item 3) are considered “non-routine” matters.

What are broker non-votes?

If you are the beneficial owner of shares and hold stock in street name, then the broker or bank, as the stockholder of record of the shares, may exercise discretionary authority to vote your shares with respect to “routine” matters but will not be permitted to vote the shares with respect to “non-routine” matters. A broker non-vote occurs when you do not provide the broker with voting instructions on “non-routine” matters for shares owned by you but held in the name of the broker. For such matters, the broker cannot vote and reports the number of such shares as “broker non-votes.”

How are broker non-votes and abstentions treated?

Broker non-votes and abstentions are counted for purposes of determining a quorum. However, see below with regards to the effect of broker non-votes and abstentions on approval of specific agenda items.

14 |  | CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC. |  | 2015 Proxy Statement

##### Table of Contents

What is the voting requirement for each of the items?

Approval of Item 1: Directors are elected by a plurality voting standard. The nominees who receive the highest number of affirmative votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon will be elected. However, pursuant to the Company’s Fourth Amended and Restated Corporate Governance Guidelines (the “Corporate Governance Guidelines”), in an uncontested election, any director nominee who receives a greater number of votes “withheld” from his or her election than votes “for” such election shall promptly tender his or her resignation from the Board and all committees of the Board following certification of the results of the Annual Meeting by the Inspector of Elections. The Governance Committee (excluding the nominee in question if applicable) would then consider the resignation offer and make a recommendation to the Board as to whether to accept or reject the resignation. Within 90 days following certification of the stockholder vote, the Board will make a final determination as to whether to accept the director’s resignation. The Board’s explanation of its decision would then be promptly disclosed in a Form 8-K filed with the SEC. If a director’s resignation is rejected by the Board, the director will continue to serve for the remainder of the term for which he or she was elected and until his or her successor is duly elected, except in the event of his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. The Board believes that this voting policy promotes stability in governance by ensuring that a full slate of carefully chosen and nominated members is elected at each annual meeting of stockholders thus ensuring the Board’s cohesiveness and effectiveness in promoting the interests of Cinemark.

Under the plurality voting standard, votes marked “For” will be counted in favor of the director nominee and broker non-votes and votes withheld shall have no effect on the election of a director. However, a withheld vote could affect whether such director would be required to submit a resignation as discussed above.

Approval of Item 2: The ratification of the appointment of Deloitte requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Since this proposal is considered a “routine” matter, broker non-votes do not arise and brokers and banks may exercise discretionary authority to vote your shares. Abstentions will have no effect on this item.

Approval of Item 3: The advisory vote on executive compensation requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Broker non-votes and abstentions will have no effect on this item.

How does the Board recommend I vote?

The Board recommends that you vote:

| v |  | FOR each of the nominees for director;

| v |  | FOR the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm for the 2015 fiscal year; and

| v |  | FOR the non-binding, advisory vote to approve our executive compensation.

Can I revoke or change my proxy? If so, how?

You may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before the proxy has been exercised at the Annual Meeting.

If you are a stockholder of record, your proxy can be revoked in several ways:

| v |  | by timely delivery of a written revocation to the Company Secretary;

| v |  | by submitting another valid proxy bearing a later date; or

| v |  | by attending the Annual Meeting in person and giving the inspector of election notice that you intend to vote your shares in person.

15 |  | CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC. |  | 2015 Proxy Statement

##### Table of Contents

If your shares are held in street name, you must contact your broker or bank in order to revoke your proxy. Generally, you may change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your broker or bank, or, by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person if you have obtained a “legal proxy” from your broker or bank giving you the right to vote your shares.

Who counts the votes?

The Company has retained a representative of Wells Fargo Shareowner Services to serve as an independent tabulator to receive and tabulate the proxies and as an independent inspector of election to certify the results.

Who pays for this proxy solicitation?

The Company pays for this proxy solicitation. We use our transfer agent, its agents, and brokers to distribute all proxy materials to our stockholders. We will pay them a fee and reimburse any expenses they incur in making the distribution. Proxies will be solicited on behalf of the Board by mail, telephone, other electronic means or in person. We have retained D.F. King & Co., Inc., 48 Wall Street, 22nd Floor, New York, NY 10005, to assist with the solicitation for a fee of $7,500 plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.

How can I obtain copies of the Company’s annual report and other available information about the Company?

Stockholders may receive a copy of the Company’s 2014 Form 10-K at no charge by sending a written request to Michael Cavalier, Company Secretary at Cinemark Holdings, Inc., 3900 Dallas Parkway, Suite 500, Plano, Texas 75093.

ITEM ONE — ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Composition of the Board, Nomination of Class II Directors and Director Elections

Our Board is currently comprised of eleven members. The size of the Board may be fixed from time to time exclusively by our Board as provided in our Certificate of Incorporation. Our Certificate of Incorporation also provides that our Board consists of three classes of directors, designated as Class I, Class II and Class III. The members of each class are elected to serve a three-year term, with the terms of office of each class ending in successive years.

New Board Members in 2014:

In November 2014, our Board elected Ms. Nina Vaca (Ximena G. Humrichouse) and Mr. Tim Warner to our Board. Ms. Vaca was elected to fill the vacancy created by the departure of Mr. Roger T. Staubach and she shall serve the remainder of Mr. Staubach’s term as a member of the Class I directors. Mr. Warner was elected as a member of the Class II directors and he is a director nominee at this Annual Meeting. Mr. Warner’s election to the Board was based on his position as the CEO of the Company. The elections of Ms. Vaca and Mr. Warner increased the size of the Board to 11 members.

Director Nomination Agreement:

On April 9, 2007, immediately prior to our initial public offering, we entered into a director nomination agreement with certain of our then current stockholders permitting those certain stockholders to designate persons for appointment or nomination for election to the Board (the “Director Nomination Agreement”). Currently, only the Mitchell Investors (as defined in the Director Nomination Agreement) have a right to designate two nominees to the Board and Messrs. Mitchell and Sepulveda were nominated to the Board by the Mitchell Investors. Madison Dearborn Capital Partners IV, L.P. (“MDCP”), Syufy Enterprises, LLP (“Syufy Enterprises”) and Quadrangle Investors (as defined in the Director Nomination Agreement) no longer have any beneficial ownership in the Company’s Common Stock. However, Messrs. Chereskin, Dombalagian, Senior and Soderquist (former nominees of MDCP), Mr. Peter Ezersky (a former nominee of Quadrangle Investors) and Mr. Raymond Syufy (a former nominee of Syufy Enterprises) continued to serve as directors subject to their re-election upon the expiry of their respective terms.

Annual Meeting Slate and Stockholder Nominees:

The terms of the current Class II directors, Messrs. Dombalagian, Ezersky, Sepulveda and Warner expire at the Annual Meeting. As reported previously, Messrs. Dombalagian and Ezersky have notified the Company that they will not stand for re-election. Therefore, effective the Annual Meeting, there will be two vacancies on the Board. The Board may fill the vacancies, and any director so chosen shall serve for the remainder of the term of the Class II directors until his/her successor has been elected and qualified, subject however, to such director’s death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal.

Each of Messrs. Sepulveda and Warner has consented to be nominated for re-election to the Board as a Class II director. If elected, Mr. Sepulveda will serve on the Board for a three-year term expiring on the date of our 2018 annual meeting of stockholders. Since Mr. Warner’s election to the Board was based on his position as the CEO of the Company, he will automatically resign from the Board if his position as the CEO is terminated for any reason, including the expiration of the Second Amended Agreement on April 1, 2016. At this time, we have no reason to believe that either of Messrs. Sepulveda and Warner will be unable or unwilling to serve if elected. However, should any of them become unavailable or unwilling to serve before the Annual Meeting, your proxy card authorizes us to vote for a replacement nominee if the Board names one.

Mr. Sepulveda is a nominee of the Mitchell Investors.

Director Qualifications and Board Diversity:

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines contain Board membership criteria that apply to nominees for a position on our Board. The Board has not adopted a formal diversity policy but pursuant to the Company’s

17 |  | CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC. |  | 2015 Proxy Statement

##### Table of Contents

Corporate Governance Guidelines, the Board seeks candidates of diverse background, education, skills, age and expertise with a proven record of accomplishment and the ability to work well with others. The Governance Committee does not assign specific weight to any particular factor but in selecting members for open Board positions takes into account such factors as it deems appropriate, which may include the current composition of the Board, the range of talents, experiences and skills that would best complement those already represented on the Board and the need for financial or other specialized expertise. The Board seeks to achieve a mix of members whose experience and backgrounds are relevant to the Company’s strategic priorities and the scope and complexity of the Company’s business. Overall, each of our Board members is committed to the growth of the Company for the benefit of the stockholders, contributes new ideas in a productive and congenial manner and regularly attends board meetings.

The Governance Committee receives nominations from the stockholders and the Board and evaluates nominees against the standards, qualifications and diversity criteria set forth in the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines. The Governance Committee annually evaluates the criteria for the selection of new directors and recommends any proposed changes to the Board.

Candidates nominated for election or re-election to the Board should possess the following qualifications:

| v |  | high personal and professional ethics, integrity, practical wisdom, and mature judgment;

| v |  | broad training and experience at the policy-making level in business, government, education, or technology;

| v |  | expertise that is beneficial to the Company and complementary to the background and experience of other Board members;

| v |  | willingness to devote the required amount of time to carrying out duties and responsibilities of Board membership;

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

We are governed by our Board which, in turn, appoints executive officers to manage our business operations. The Board oversees our executive management on your behalf. The Board reviews our long-term strategic plans and exercises oversight over all major decisions, such as acquisitions, the declaration of dividends, major capital expenditures and the establishment of key Company policies.

Board Leadership Structure

We believe that a key factor in a company’s performance is a leadership structure that provides a balance between independent oversight by an engaged Board and day-to-day operations by management to implement the Board’s strategic vision. To achieve this balance, since December 2006, we have split the roles of the Chairman of the Board and the CEO such that the Board is separated from the day-to-day operations of the Company. This structure has served us well. Lee Roy Mitchell, the founder of the Company, is currently the Chairman of the Board and Mr. Warner is the CEO. As the founder of the Company with more than 50 years of experience in the movie exhibition industry, Mr. Mitchell is uniquely positioned to lead the Board as well as to guide the Company’s management team in strategic planning. Mr. Mitchell is assisted by Board members, each of whom has extensive experience in sectors that are relevant to the Company’s business. The Board’s oversight function is enhanced by the Board’s Audit, Governance and Compensation Committees, each of which is comprised entirely of independent directors.

The day-to-day operations of the Company are managed by the executives under the direction of Mr. Warner, our CEO. Mr. Warner brings over 30 years of motion picture exhibition industry experience to the CEO position, including more than 18 years with the Company. Prior to becoming the CEO, in his roles as the President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company and President of Cinemark International, L.L.C., Mr. Warner has been critical in the growth of the Company’s domestic as well as international business. Mr. Warner’s extensive industry experience and relationships, coupled with proven management and operational skills, make him well-suited to direct the Company’s day-to-day management and implement the strategic vision of the Board.

In addition to the separation of the positions of the Chairman of the Board and the CEO, the Board has a lead independent director, which role provides leadership and an organizational structure to the non- management directors. Our lead independent director is currently Mr. Donald Soderquist. The position of the lead independent director has significant authority and responsibilities under our Corporate Governance Guidelines, which are as follows:

| v |  | To act as a liaison between the non-management directors and the Company’s management;

| v |  | To call meetings of non-management directors;

| v |  | Chair the executive sessions of non-management directors;

| v |  | Chair Board meetings when the Chairman is not present;

| v |  | Consult with the Chairman and the CEO and approve the schedules, agendas and information provided to the Board for each meeting;

| v |  | Be available for consultation and communication with stockholders upon request; and

| v |  | Provide the Chairman and the CEO with the results of the Board’s annual performance review.

Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

Responsibility for risk oversight rests with the Board. The Board has oversight responsibility of the processes established to identify, report and mitigate material risks applicable to the Company. The Board approves management’s policies related to key risk areas and provides input to management regarding risks and the appropriateness of management’s response. The Board also approves actions surrounding our capital

25 |  | CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC. |  | 2015 Proxy Statement

##### Table of Contents

structure, dividend payments, potential material acquisitions and approves our annual budget. While the Board considers risk in all its decisions, it also recognizes that appropriate and measured risk-taking may be required for the Company to retain its competitiveness and thus increase stockholder value.

The Board implements its risk oversight function both as a whole and through delegation to certain Board committees.

The Board has delegated its oversight responsibility with respect to financial and accounting risks to the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee periodically discusses with management the Company’s major financial risk exposures and the Company’s risk assessment and risk management policies. On a periodic basis, management provides the Audit Committee an update on key risks and the processes and systems of internal control to manage the risks. The Chair of the Audit Committee reports to the full Board regarding material risks as deemed appropriate.

The Compensation Committee reviews the executive compensation program to ensure that the design of the program does not encourage excessive risk-taking. It also reviews succession plans to ensure the Company has appropriate practices in place to support the retention and development of the talent necessary to achieve the Company’s business goals and objectives. See Compensation Risk Assessment section of the Compensation Discussion and Analysis (the “CD&A”) for more detail on how the Compensation Committee mitigates risk without diminishing the incentive nature of compensation.

To provide oversight of the risks associated with strategic planning and business development initiatives, in 2013, the Board established the Strategic Long-Range Planning Committee. The Strategic Long-Range Planning Committee assists management in the analysis of alternative strategic options and reviews with management the key industry and market issues and external developments impacting the Company.

The chart below provides the schematic view of the Board’s risk oversight structure.

Director Independence

Our standards of director independence comply with the independence requirements of the NYSE.

The NYSE bright-line tests for independence are whether the director:

| 1. | is, or has been within the last three years, an employee of the Company, or an immediate family member is, or has been within the last three years, an executive officer of the Company;

| 2. | has received, or has an immediate family member who has received, during any twelve-month period within the last three years, more than $120,000 in direct compensation from the Company (other than director and committee fees and pension or other forms of deferred compensation for prior service, provided such compensation is not contingent in any way on continued service);

| 3. | (a) is a current partner or employee that is the Company’s internal or external auditor; (b) has an immediate family member who is a current partner of such a firm; (c) has an immediate family member who is a current employee of such firm and personally works on the Company’s audit; or (d) is or an immediate family member was within the last three years a partner or employee of such a firm and personally worked on the Company’s audit within that time;

With the assistance of legal counsel to the Company, the Governance Committee has reviewed the NYSE standards for Board and committee member independence.

On the basis of this review, the Board has affirmatively determined, in its business judgment, that (a) the majority of the Board is independent, (b) each of Messrs. Chereskin, Dombalagian, Ezersky, Rosenberg, Senior, Sepulveda, Soderquist and Staubach (resigned effective May 22, 2014) and Ms. Vaca is independent, (c) Messrs. Mitchell and Syufy are not independent due to their transactions with the Company exceeding $120,000 annually, (d) Messrs. Mitchell and Warner are not independent because they are employees of the Company (e) each of Messrs. Ezersky, Rosenberg and Sepulveda meets all applicable requirements for membership in the Audit Committee, (e) Mr. Sepulveda is an “audit committee financial expert” as such term is defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC and satisfies the NYSE’s financial experience requirements, and each of Messrs. Dombalagian, Ezersky, Sepulveda, Soderquist, Staubach and Ms. Vaca met, and continue to meet, all applicable requirements for membership in the Compensation Committee.

Meetings

During 2014, the Board held four (4) meetings and took action by written consent on three (3) occasions. All directors attended at least seventy-five percent (75%) of all meetings held by the Board and all meetings held by committees of the Board on which such director served.

All directors are strongly encouraged to attend the Annual Meeting, but we do not have a formal attendance requirement. Eight directors attended the 2014 Annual Meeting.

Executive Sessions

Pursuant to our Corporate Governance Guidelines and the rules of the NYSE, our non-management directors meet periodically in executive sessions with no Company employees present. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines require separate sessions of the non-management directors at least twice a year.

The presiding director of the executive sessions is currently our lead independent director, Mr. Donald Soderquist. During 2014, our non-management directors met four times in executive sessions.

Stockholder Communications with the Board

As stated in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, any Company stockholder or other interested party who wishes to communicate with the non-management directors as a group may direct such communications by writing to the:

| v |  | the name and address of the stockholder of record and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made;

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

The compensation of the non-employee directors is governed by our Amended and Restated Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy (the “Amended Director Compensation Policy”). Non-employee directors include any member of the Board who is (i) neither our employee nor an employee of any of our subsidiaries, and (ii) not an employee of any of the Company’s stockholders with contractual rights to nominate directors.

Each non-employee director receives the following annual compensation for services as a Board member:

| (a) | a base director retainer fee of $50,000;

| (b) | additional cash retainer for the committee memberships as follows:

Committee |  | Chairperson |  | Member
Audit |  | $20,000 |  | $10,000
Compensation |  | $10,000 |  | $ 5,000
Governance |  | $10,000 |  | $ 5,000
Strategic Long-Range Planning |  | $10,000 |  | $ 5,000
New Ventures |  | $10,000 |  | $ 5,000

| (c) | annual grant of restricted stock valued at $100,000.

All grants of restricted stock are made pursuant to the Amended and Restated Cinemark Holdings, Inc. 2006 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “Restated Incentive Plan”). The number of shares of restricted stock to be issued is determined by dividing $100,000 by the closing price of Common Stock on the grant date, rounded down to the nearest whole share. Subject to continued service to the Company through the vest date, the initial award and each annual award generally vest on the first anniversary of the grant date. However, the Compensation Committee, as the administrator of the Restated Incentive Plan, may modify the vest schedule of an award.

Annual cash retainer is paid in four equal quarterly installments at the end of each quarter for services rendered during the quarter. All directors are reimbursed for travel related expenses incurred for each Board meeting they attend.

Employees of the Company, Messrs. Mitchell and Warner, who are also Board members, do not receive any additional compensation for their services on the Board.

The following table sets forth summary information regarding the compensation of our non-employee directors for the 2014 fiscal year.

Name |  | Fees Earned or Paid in Cash ($)(1) |  | Stock Awards ($)(2) |  | Other Compensation ($)(3) |  | Total ($)

(2) | The aggregate grant date fair values were calculated based upon the closing price of the Company’s Common Stock on May 22, 2014 of $30.30 per share for Messrs. Chereskin, Dombalagian, Ezersky, Rosenberg, Senior, Sepulveda, Soderquist and Syufy and November 20, 2014 of $34.94 per share for Ms. Vaca. This calculation is in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718.

See Note 16 to the Company’s 2014 Form 10-K, for discussion of the assumptions used in determining the grant date fair values of these share based awards, including forfeiture assumptions and the period over which the Company will recognize compensation expense for such awards.

At December 31, 2014, each of Messrs. Chereskin, Dombalagian, Ezersky, Rosenberg, Senior, Sepulveda, Soderquist and Syufy owned 3,300 shares of restricted stock and Ms. Vaca owned 1,517 shares of restricted stock.

Ms. Vaca’s annual director restricted stock grant was pro-rated from her date of election as a Board member.

Mr. Staubach resigned effective May 22, 2014 and thus did not receive the annual grant of restricted stock.

(3) | The amounts reported are dividends paid during the 2014 fiscal year on the shares of unvested restricted stock granted in 2013 and 2014. Mr. Staubach received dividends only on the restricted stock granted in 2013 which vested on May 22, 2014.

(4) | Pursuant to the partnership agreement with his employer, Mr. Dombalagian remits his compensation to MDP.

ITEM TWO — RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF DELOITTE AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR THE 2015 FISCAL YEAR

The Audit Committee has appointed and the Board has ratified the appointment of Deloitte as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2015 fiscal year. As a matter of good corporate governance, we are seeking stockholder ratification of the appointment of Deloitte. If the stockholders do not ratify the appointment of Deloitte, the Audit Committee may review its future selection of auditors. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if the Audit Committee believes that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

One or more representatives of Deloitte are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. They will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to answer appropriate questions.

Unless marked to the contrary, proxies received will be voted “FOR” ratification of the appointment of Deloitte as the independent registered public accounting firm for the 2015 fiscal year.

Vote Required for Ratification

Ratification requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Since this proposal is considered a “routine” matter, broker non-votes do not arise and brokers and banks may exercise discretionary authority to vote your shares. Abstentions will have no effect on this item.

ITEM THREE — NON-BINDING, ANNUAL ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

As required by Section 14A of the Exchange Act, the Company is providing stockholders with an opportunity to cast an advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in the CD&A, the compensation tables, narrative discussion, and related footnotes included in this proxy statement (“Say-on-Pay”).

While the vote is advisory, and therefore non-binding on the Company, the Compensation Committee values the opinions of our stockholders and will take into account the outcome of the vote when considering future executive compensation decisions.

As discussed in more detail in the CD&A, our executive compensation program is designed to attract and retain a talented team of executives who can deliver on our commitment to build long-term stockholder value. The Compensation Committee believes our program is competitive in the marketplace and links pay to Company performance.

Accordingly, the Board recommends that you vote in favor of the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the CD&A, compensation tables and narrative discussion is hereby APPROVED.”

At the annual meeting of stockholders held in May 2011, the Board recommended, and approximately 89% of the Company’s stockholders who voted either in person or via proxy and entitled to vote supported an annual advisory vote on executive compensation. Therefore, the next non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation will be at the 2016 annual meeting.

Vote Required

Approval of the Say-on-Pay item requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Broker non-votes and abstentions will have no effect on this item.

Board recommends a vote “FOR” the Say-on-Pay advisory vote.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The CD&A describes our executive compensation philosophy and the components of our compensation program. It also includes information about how the 2014 fiscal year compensation for the named executive officers meets our compensation goals and is aligned with the Company’s 2014 fiscal year performance. The CD&A helps readers better understand the information found in the Summary Compensation Table and other accompanying tables located in this section of the proxy statement.

In 2014, our named executive officers were the following: v Lee Roy Mitchell, Chairman of the Board and founder of the Company, with the Company since its inception in 1987; v Tim Warner, CEO, with the Company for 18 years; v Robert Copple, President and Chief Operating Officer, with the Company for 18 years; v Sean Gamble, Chief Financial Officer, with the Company for 8 months; and v Valmir Fernandes, President of Cinemark International, L.L.C., with the Company for 17 years

In this proxy statement, “executive officers” refers to all members of management, including the named executive officers.

Executive Summary

2014 Say-on-Pay Voting Results

At the 2014 Annual Meeting, our executive compensation program garnered the support of approximately 97% of the votes cast by stockholders present in person or represented by proxy and were entitled to vote at the 2014 Annual Meeting. Given the high approval rate of our executive compensation program, the Compensation Committee did not make any major structural changes to the program.

Cinemark’s Compensation Philosophy

The goal of our executive compensation program is to align the executives’ and stockholders’ long-term interests.

We use traditional compensation elements of annual base salary, annual cash incentives, long-term equity incentives, and employee benefits to deliver competitive and performance-based compensation. All of our compensation-related decisions for the executive officers are made solely by our Compensation Committee with input from the CEO (other than for himself).

We observe the following principles in the design of our executive compensation program:

| v |  | Hire and retain top executives: Base salaries should be market competitive based on the skill and knowledge of the individual;

| v |  | Pay for performance: A significant portion of the annual compensation should be subject to the Company achieving performance goals and each individual’s contribution to that performance;

40 |  | CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC. |  | 2015 Proxy Statement

##### Table of Contents

| v |  | Motivate and reward long-term growth and profitability: Motivate executives appropriately by minimizing incentives for imprudent risk taking while rewarding achievement of long-term business strategies that enhance stockholder value through continued growth and competitiveness; and

| v |  | Provide limited perquisites: Perquisites for our executive officers should be minimized and limited to items that serve a reasonable business purpose.

Our performance has established us as one of the industry leaders. We believe hiring, motivating and retaining one of the best executive management teams in the industry has given us the leadership that is required to achieve high performance levels. Headed by the Chairman of the Board and the founder of the Company, Lee Roy Mitchell, our executive management team brings experience and industry knowledge that is quite unique. Our named executive officers have made their careers in the movie-exhibition industry. With the hiring of Sean Gamble as our CFO, we have added more industry experience to our executive team. Our management team has successfully navigated us through many industry and economic cycles. At Cinemark, we view our employees as an “investment” for the future. We invest in our employees to continue to deliver more value to our stockholders and patrons.

We implement our compensation principles by structuring executive compensation in the following manner:

| v |  | Setting a level of compensation for each position that is competitive based on the skill and knowledge of the individual;

| v |  | Recognizing the effort, leadership and responsibility needed to perform the job successfully and to achieve the performance goals; and

| v |  | Using a mix of fixed and variable pay components with different time horizons and payout forms to reward and motivate achievements of short-term and long-term goals.

Mix of Compensation Elements

The graphical presentation below of the components of compensation for the 2014 fiscal year for each named executive officer lays out the balance between retention and performance elements of our compensation program. Please note, for performance awards, the grant date fair value of the maximum potential payout has been included in the calculation. Mr. Mitchell was not granted any equity awards given his substantial equity ownership in the Company.

Since Mr. Gamble was with the Company for only 4 months in 2014, the Company determined that a graphical presentation of his compensation would not be helpful.

Company Performance Relative to Peers

We compare our financial performance against our direct competitors in the movie exhibition industry (referred to as the “performance peer group”). Our performance peer group includes the four publicly-held companies (from January 1, 2010 through December 31, 2014) in our industry, namely, Regal Entertainment Group (RGC), AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc. (AMC), Carmike (CKEC) and IMAX Corporation (IMAX). We believe that this peer group is an appropriate benchmark for evaluating our fiscal performance since we

directly compete with these companies for business and investor capital. The Company’s cumulative total return between 2010 and 2014 as compared to the performance peer group and S&P 500 is presented below.

The Company’s financial performance relative to its peers has been very strong over the past five years. The Company’s TSR (with dividends reinvested) for the one- year, cumulative three- year and cumulative five- year periods are at 9.8%, 107.4% and 177.9% respectively.

*The 3-Stock Peer Group consists of Regal Entertainment Group, Carmike Cinemas Inc. and IMAX. Since AMC became publicly-owned in December 2013, it is not included in the graphical presentation.

Company Performance Highlights in 2014

Cinemark sustained its industry outperformance trend in 2014. While the North American industry box office declined 5.2% in 2014 versus record setting 2012 and 2013 box offices, Cinemark’s domestic admissions revenue outperformed the North American industry by 430 basis points for the year and our worldwide admissions revenue outperformed by 540 basis points on a currency adjusted basis.

Furthermore, Cinemark continued to lead the industry and deliver worldwide Reported Adjusted EBITDA margins of over 20% to our stockholders throughout 2014.

DISCUSSION

The Process of Setting Executive Compensation

How Do We Set Executive Compensation?

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee is responsible for:

| v |  | establishing, evaluating and overseeing the Company’s compensation program;

| v |  | determining the compensation of each of the named executive officers;

| v |  | determining the compensation of the other executive officers and other senior officers as it deems appropriate;

| v |  | establishing certain business criteria and performance targets relevant to the compensation of the CEO and other executive officers and evaluating their performance against such business criteria and performance targets; and

| v |  | approving the grant of all equity and non-equity based compensation.

The Compensation Committee establishes the compensation of the CEO without executive management input, but may be assisted in this determination by outside compensation consultants. In establishing the compensation of the named executive officers (other than the CEO) and the other executive officers, the Compensation Committee may consider the recommendations of the CEO and input received from the compensation consultants.

There is no set date but typically, the Compensation Committee determines the level of annual cash incentive bonus and equity incentive compensation during the first quarter of a fiscal year.

If deemed appropriate, the Compensation Committee advises the Board of its determination of the compensation of the CEO and certain other executive officers prior to its implementation. While the Compensation Committee may consider input provided by the Board, the decisions regarding annual cash incentive bonus and equity incentive compensation are made solely by the Compensation Committee.

Compensation Consultant

The Compensation Committee has the sole authority under the Compensation Committee Charter, to the extent it deems appropriate, to retain one or more consultants and has direct responsibility for the compensation and oversight of the work of any compensation consultant. The Compensation Committee also has the right to receive information it deems pertinent from management, employees, outside counsel and other advisers. None of our executive officers are involved in the Compensation Committee’s determination of their own compensation.

The scope of the compensation consultant’s engagement have covered the following:

| v |  | Make recommendations regarding the design of the Company’s executive compensation program and the competitiveness of individual compensation levels of the named executive officers;

| v |  | Review and recommend appropriate changes to the Company’s executive compensation program;

| v |  | Advise the Company and the Compensation Committee on companies that should populate a peer group to be used by the Committee as reference points for executive compensation and suggest changes to the peer group as appropriate;

46 |  | CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC. |  | 2015 Proxy Statement

##### Table of Contents

| v |  | Review, as requested, proposals related to executive compensation brought before the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and provide the Committee with its objective analysis and recommendations;

| v |  | Attend Committee meetings as requested; and

| v |  | Advise the Committee on emerging trends and issues related to the compensation of public company executive officers.

To help determine the 2014 compensation levels of the named executive officers, the Compensation Committee engaged Pay Governance LLC (“Pay Governance”) as the executive compensation consultant.

Independence of Compensation Consultant:

In light of the NYSE listing standards regarding independence of compensation consultants, the Compensation Committee evaluated the independence of Pay Governance. The Compensation Committee reviewed, among other items, a questionnaire executed by Pay Governance addressing its independence and that of the members of the consulting team, including the following factors: (i) other services provided to the Company by Pay Governance, (ii) fees paid by the Company as a percentage of Pay Governance’s total revenue, (iii) policies or procedures of Pay Governance that are designed to prevent conflicts of interest, (iv) any business or personal relationships between any of the members of the consulting team and a member of the Compensation Committee or any of the Company’s executive officers, and (v) any Company stock owned by any of the members of the consulting team or any immediate family member. Based upon this review, the Compensation Committee concluded that the work performed by Pay Governance and the members of the consulting team involved in the engagement did not raise any conflict of interest.

Role of the CEO

In making compensation decisions for executive officers, the Compensation Committee solicits the views of our CEO and the compensation consultant. The CEO is not present during Compensation Committee meetings and does not make recommendations to the Compensation Committee about his own compensation.

Competitive Positioning

We compete with a peer group of companies (referred here as the “compensation peer group”) for executive level talent. To attract, retain and motivate the highest caliber executive management who are critical to our long-term success, the Compensation Committee believes their compensation should be aligned to similarly situated executives within our compensation peer group. To determine the competitiveness of our compensation, the Compensation Committee reviews our compensation peer group data provided by our compensation consultant annually. Typically, our compensation consultant for the year has provided compensation data for the 25th, 50th and 75th percentiles for each component of compensation and total compensation for each named executive officer. The Compensation Committee uses the data for informational purposes and does not target a specific percentile of compensation for any named executive officer.

For purposes of executive compensation for the 2014 fiscal year, the selection criteria of the peer group remained the same as 2013. The criteria was a combination of various factors such as revenue levels, total assets, market capitalization and business models particularly relevant to Cinemark’s growth and expansion in the

47 |  | CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC. |  | 2015 Proxy Statement

##### Table of Contents

international markets. Based upon that assessment, the following companies within the leisure, hospitality and entertainment services industry comprised our compensation peer group for the 2014 fiscal year:

AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc. |  | Sirius XM Radio Inc.
Carmike Cinemas, Inc. |  | Netflix, Inc.
Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. |  | Panera Bread Co.
DreamWorks Animation SKG, Inc. |  | Regal Entertainment Group
IMAX Corporation |  | Wynn Resorts Ltd.
Lions Gate Entertainment Corp. |  |

Pay Governance compiled compensation data for the compensation peer group from a variety of sources, including proxy statements for 2013, public filings and other published survey sources.

In addition to the data related to the compensation peer group, to set compensation for the 2014 fiscal year, the Compensation Committee also considered the international exhibition industry which has become a competitive market for our executives.

Design of the Executive Compensation Program

The design of our executive compensation is simple and is consistent with the compensation structure used in our industry:

| v |  | annual base salary;

| v |  | service-based equity award;

| v |  | annual performance-based cash incentive bonus;

| v |  | performance-based equity award vesting after a performance period and a subsequent period of additional employment; and

| v |  | limited perquisites.

Annual base salary is the only fixed component of the summary compensation of an executive as its value is not subject to Company performance or fluctuations in the price of our Common Stock. Annual cash incentive bonus and equity awards are the variable components of compensation. We believe the distribution between fixed and variable components offers a competitive compensation program while appropriately mitigating risk.

Annual Base Salary

The annual base salary represents minimum payment for a satisfactory level of individual performance for the duration of employment with the Company. The Compensation Committee seeks to keep annual base salary competitive to help attract and retain qualified executives. Annual base salaries for the executive officers are determined by the Compensation Committee based on a variety of factors including:

| v |  | nature and responsibility of the position;

| v |  | expertise of the individual executive;

| v |  | competitiveness of the market for the executive’s services;

| v |  | potential for driving the Company’s success in the future;

| v |  | peer compensation data;

48 |  | CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC. |  | 2015 Proxy Statement

##### Table of Contents

| v |  | the performance reviews and recommendations of the CEO (except in the case of his own compensation); and

| v |  | other judgmental factors deemed relevant by the Compensation Committee such as recommendations of the compensation consultant.

However, the Compensation Committee has not adopted any formula with specific weightings assigned to any of the factors above.

The Company has employment agreements with the named executive officers. Under the employment agreements, the annual base salaries are subject to annual review by the Compensation Committee and can be increased but not decreased.

In determining the annual base salaries for the 2014 fiscal year, the Compensation Committee took into consideration the pay practices at our ‘compensation peer group’, the competitive market for our executives, both domestic as well international, and enhanced job responsibilities of certain executive officers such as Mr. Copple who was promoted to the position of President and Chief Operating Officer effective January 21, 2014. The peer pay review was based on a compensation report prepared by Pay Governance. The report was based on a projected pay level for each of the named executive officers and compensation data publicly available for the 2013 fiscal year for the Company’s ‘compensation peer group’. See page 47 for the definition of the Company’s ‘compensation peer group’. The competitive analysis presented in Pay Governance’s review indicated that compensation levels, base salaries included, for the Company’s named executive officers were below a competitive range of peer pay levels. To ensure the continued competitiveness of pay for our key top executive talent and, in Mr. Copple’s case, to reflect increased responsibilities associated with a promotion, the Compensation Committee determined the following annual base salaries and raises from the 2013 fiscal year for the named executive officers. The 2014 annual base salaries are also compared to relevant competitive market data in the table below.

Annual Cash Incentive Bonus

Pursuant to our compensation philosophy of pay for performance, we provide participants to our Bonus Plan an opportunity to earn an annual cash incentive bonus tied to Company performance against pre-established performance metrics set by the Compensation Committee for the fiscal year. In setting total compensation, the Compensation Committee considers this annual cash incentive bonus to be an important tool in motivating and rewarding performance over the short-term. While the annual cash incentive bonus provides an additional compensation opportunity it also subjects the Bonus Plan participant to the financial risks of the Company. Consequently, annual cash incentive bonus percentages are commensurate with the participant’s position and potential impact on the Company’s performance as determined by the Compensation Committee.

49 |  | CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC. |  | 2015 Proxy Statement

##### Table of Contents

The following steps are performed annually for the Bonus Plan:

(1) Setting a Target Cash Bonus. During the first quarter of the fiscal year, the Compensation Committee approves the range of potential payouts as percentage of target (33%, 100% and 133%), at a threshold, target and maximum level of annual cash incentive bonus for the participants to the Bonus Plan. The target annual cash incentive bonus amount is generally set at a percentage of the participant’s annual base salary although the Compensation Committee may take into account other factors deemed relevant, such as the individual’s performance and contributions outside of the quantitative targets and recommendations from the CEO (except for target annual cash incentive bonus amounts for himself). As such, given the outperformance of our international segment over the past fiscal years, the Compensation Committee has determined that Mr. Fernandes’s annual cash incentive bonus opportunity should be calculated based on the average of worldwide Adjusted EBITDA and international Adjusted EBITDA performances.

Each participant under the Bonus Plan is entitled to receive a ratable portion of his target annual cash incentive bonus based upon the Company’s level of achievement of the performance metric. The actual amount of annual cash incentive bonuses paid, if any, may result in an annual cash incentive bonus that is greater or less than the stated target (and could be zero) depending on whether, and to what extent, the applicable performance and other conditions are satisfied.

Under the Bonus Plan, the maximum annual cash incentive bonus amount of a named executive officer is capped at the lesser of 200% of such named executive officer’s annual base salary or $3 million.

(2) Setting the Performance Target. During the first quarter of each fiscal year, the Compensation Committee establishes the performance target of the Company for the year. The performance target may include factors, by way of example but not limitation, any or all of the following: revenue; net sales; operating income; earnings before all or any of interest, taxes, depreciation and/or amortization (“EBIT”, “EBITA”, or “EBITDA”); Adjusted EBITDA; Adjusted EBITDA Margin; cash flow; working capital and components thereof; return on equity or average stockholder’s equity; return on assets; market share; sales (net or gross) measured by product line, territory, customer(s), or other category; stock price; earnings per share; earnings from continuing operations; net worth; credit rating; levels of expense, cost or liability by category, operating unit or any other delineation; any increase or decrease of one or more of the foregoing over a specified period; or implementation or completion of critical projects. With respect to certain participants who are not named executive officers, these targets may also include such objective or subjective performance goals as the Compensation Committee may, from time to time, establish.

For the 2014 fiscal year, the Compensation Committee used Reported Adjusted EBITDA to set the target for payout of annual cash incentive bonus.

(3) Measuring Performance. Prior to making any payments under the Bonus Plan, the Compensation Committee reviews whether the applicable performance factors were attained. In reaching its conclusions, the Compensation Committee will make, if needed, certain adjustments as specified in the Bonus Plan. Such adjustments include, but are not limited to, factors such as changes in accounting principles and extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring events that were not included in the operating budget for the performance period (such as the disposition of a theatre or theatres or the cessation of operation of a theatre as a result of a natural disaster). The Compensation Committee may, in its discretion, at any time establish (and, once established, rescind, waive or amend) additional conditions and terms of payment of the annual cash incentive bonus (including but not limited to the achievement of other financial, strategic or individual goals, which may be objective or subjective) as it may deem desirable in carrying out the purposes of the Bonus Plan and may take into account such other factors as it deems appropriate in administering any aspect of the Bonus Plan, including reducing the amount of the annual cash incentive bonus at any time prior to payment based on such criteria as it shall determine, including but not limited to, individual merit and the attainment of specified levels of one or any combination of the performance factors. However, the Compensation Committee cannot adjust upwards the cash incentive compensation payable to a named executive officer or waive the achievement of a performance target

##### Table of Contents

requirement for a named executive officer except in the case of the death or disability of the executive or a change of control of the Company.

For reasons discussed earlier under the discussion of the determination of annual base salary for 2014, the Compensation Committee deemed it appropriate to review the annual cash incentive bonus target percentages of certain executives. Based on the review, the Compensation Committee revised the target bonus opportunity of the named executive officers. While this revision potentially raises the total compensation, it also ties a higher percentage of total compensation to Company performance.

The following table provides the target annual cash incentive bonus opportunity (as percentage of base salary) for the 2014 fiscal year for each of the named executive officers compared to relevant competitive market data and the actual amounts received by them in February 2015.

Equity Incentive Compensation

In addition to the annual cash incentive bonus, the Compensation Committee also annually awards service-based and performance-based equity compensation pursuant to the Restated Incentive Plan. Service-based equity compensation enables us to attract and retain highly qualified executive officers as leaders to ensure our continued success. Long-term performance-based equity compensation encourages Company’s long-term growth and aligns the executive’s interests with the interests of our stockholders.

Pursuant to the Restated Incentive Plan, restricted stock and performance awards (in the form of restricted stock units) have been granted annually to eligible employees, including the named executive officers. There is no set date for the annual equity grant, but typically, grants to all eligible employees, including the named executive officers, are made on the same day (and within the first 90 days of the fiscal quarter).

No stock options have been granted by the Company since 2004. The Compensation Committee has concluded that restricted stock and performance awards are a superior vehicle of incentive compensation than stock options by allowing our executives to benefit from our dividend policy.

The Compensation Committee determines the split between service-based and performance-based awards based upon various factors such as Company’s performance with respect to its industry competitors, leadership and contribution of individual executive officers and the nature of the economic environment. Generally, the value of the target level of performance-based awards is close to the value of the service-based restricted stock award with the maximum potential of the performance-based awards at 150% of the value of the service-based restricted stock award. In certain years the Compensation Committee has adjusted the percentage split of the performance-based and service-based equity awards to appropriately incentivize and motivate the executive officers in response to Company performance and targeted goals.

Restricted Stock. Generally, restricted stock is awarded to eligible employees annually as a retention incentive. Periodic awards of restricted stock can also be made at the discretion of the Compensation Committee and such periodic awards have been made in certain limited instances to attract executive talent such as the grant to Sean Gamble in 2014. Grants of restricted stock are generally based upon a percentage of the eligible employee’s annual base salary. However, such grants could be subject to some adjustment based on the

51 |  | CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC. |  | 2015 Proxy Statement

##### Table of Contents

individual employee’s performance during the previous fiscal year. All participants to the Restated Incentive Plan are eligible to receive restricted stock. Restricted stock grants typically vests 50% on each of the second and fourth anniversaries of the grant date subject to continuous employment through the vest dates. However, the restricted stock granted to Mr. Warner in 2012 and 2013 vests equally over three years and the restricted stock granted in 2014 vests equally over two years. Restricted stock awards granted to Mr. Warner in years prior to 2012 remain subject to the typical four year vesting schedule.

Recipients of restricted stock awards are permitted to:

(i) receive dividends on the restricted stock to the extent dividends are paid by the Company on shares of its Common Stock, and

(ii) to vote such Common Stock during the restriction period.

Performance Awards. Performance awards entitle recipients to vest in or acquire shares of Common Stock upon the attainment of specified performance goals over the performance period established by the Compensation Committee. Only the named executive officers and certain executive officers who have a significant impact on the Company’s long-term performance have been awarded performance awards.

Performance awards can be granted in the form of restricted stock or restricted stock units. The performance goals are based on one or more pre-established objective criteria that specify the number of shares of Common Stock under the performance award that will be issued (if performance award is in the form of restricted stock unit) or shall vest (if performance award is in the form of restricted stock) if the performance goal is attained. During the first quarter of a fiscal year, the Compensation Committee approves the performance goal for the applicable measurement period. Common Stock received upon attainment of the performance goals under a restricted stock unit award may be subject to additional service-based vesting conditions. Any dividends that are attributable to the underlying Common Stock relating to a restricted stock unit based performance award will be accrued and paid to the recipient to the extent the vesting conditions are satisfied and the number of shares that vest.

Currently our performance goal is based on an implied equity value concept that determines an IRR during a performance period. For performance awards granted from 2008 until 2013, the performance period was a three-year period. Beginning 2014, the Compensation Committee changed the performance period to a two-year period. This change was based on an annual re-evaluation of the Company’s growth plan and timetable of results delivered in the past years. The performance period for the performance awards granted in March 2014 is from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2015.

The implied equity value is based on a valuation formula utilizing a multiple of Reported Adjusted EBITDA (subject to certain specified adjustments) and other factors that produces a fundamental valuation of Cinemark equity. IRR represents the growth in this implied equity value. Each performance target underlying the performance awards has a threshold, target and maximum level of payment opportunity and vest on a pro rata basis according to the IRR achieved during the performance period, with the maximum payment opportunity equal to 150% of the individual’s target opportunity. The targets for the current fiscal year are established in writing by the Compensation Committee in the first quarter of the fiscal year. The number of shares of Common Stock an executive may receive upon the attainment of a performance goal cannot be determined at the date of grant because the payment of such compensation is contingent upon attainment of the IRR and is further subject to the discretion of the Compensation Committee. If at the end of the performance period the Compensation Committee determines that the performance target has been met, the shares of Common Stock subject to each performance award shall be further subject to additional service-based vesting restriction contingent upon the employee’s continued service until the vest date. However, pursuant to the Second Amended Agreement, if Mr. Warner’s employment terminates due to the expiration of the term of the Second Amended Agreement on April 1, 2016, Mr. Warner shall not be required to fulfill the additional employment requirement through March 2018.

52 |  | CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC. |  | 2015 Proxy Statement

##### Table of Contents

The following table sets forth the various IRR percentages and the number of corresponding performance shares that can be earned by each eligible participant under the 2014 Grant:

Level |  | IRR |  | Performance Shares Issuable
Threshold |  | IRR equal to 8.5% but less than 10.5% |  | 331/3% of the maximum performance shares issuable
Target |  | IRR equal to 10.5% but less than 12.5% |  | 66 2/3% of the maximum performance shares issuable
Maximum |  | IRR equal to or greater than 12.5% |  | 100% of the maximum performance shares issuable

Payout is prorated for performance between threshold and target and between target and maximum. If the IRR for the applicable performance period is at least 8.5%, which is the threshold, at least one-third of the restricted stock units vest. If the IRR for the applicable performance period is at least 10.5%, which is the target, at least two-thirds of the restricted stock units vest. If the IRR for the applicable performance period is at least 12.5%, which is the maximum, 100% of the restricted stock units vest. Further, as an example, if the Company achieves an IRR equal to 11.5%, the number of restricted stock units that shall vest will be greater than the target but less than the maximum number that would have vested had the Company achieved the highest IRR.

In 2014, the service-based and performance-based awards were granted as a 50/50 mix at the target level with the value of the potential maximum level of performance-based equity grant at 150% of the value of the service-based equity grant. This distribution of equity grants is consistent with our compensation philosophy to motivate our executive officers to increase stockholder value over the term long-term while still providing incentive for continuity and short-term performance.

The following table provides the total value of the equity grants (at the target level) made to the named executive officers in 2014 compared to relevant competitive market data.

Market Percentile |  | N/A |  | 25 th |  | <50 th |  | N/A |  | <50 th

The service-based restricted stock granted to Messrs. Copple and Fernandes shall vest, subject to continued employment through the vest dates, 50% in March 2016 and the remaining 50% in March 2018. The restricted stock granted to Mr. Warner vests equally over two years and the restricted stock granted to Mr. Gamble vests equally over three years. Future grants to Mr. Gamble are expected to contain vesting provisions on the second and fourth anniversary dates of the grants.

The payout of the performance awards (in the form of restricted stock units) granted in 2014 is subject to the achievement by the Company of an IRR set by the Compensation Committee for the two-year performance period from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2015 and continued employment until March 2018. However, Mr. Warner does not have to fulfill the additional service requirement if the term of the Second Amended Agreement expires on April 1, 2016.

Similar to previous years, no equity award was granted to Mr. Mitchell as the Compensation Committee determined that Mr. Mitchell has substantial equity stake in the Company, which, as of the Record Date, is approximately 5% (excluding The Mitchell Special Trust). Also, since Mr. Gamble joined the Company eight months into the two-year performance period, the Compensation Committee did not grant any performance awards to Mr. Gamble.

##### Table of Contents

The Compensation Committee utilizes the performance awards to align performance with pay. As such, based on the level of IRR achieved by the Company for the three-year performance period from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2014, the Compensation Committee determined that 76.67% of the maximum opportunity (115% of the target opportunity) of the performance awards (in the form of restricted stock units) granted to Messrs. Warner, Copple and Fernandes on March 8, 2012 (the “2012 Grant”) shall vest. The table below provides the number of performance awards (maximum) granted in 2012 and the number of performance awards to vest, subject to continuous employment through March 8, 2016:

Name |  | Granted in 2012 |  | To Vest in 2016
Lee Roy Mitchell |  | - |  | -
Tim Warner |  | 35,358 |  | 27,108
Robert Copple |  | 20,203 |  | 15,489
Sean Gamble |  | - |  | -
Valmir Fernandes |  | 15,925 |  | 12,209

Perquisites

With limited exceptions, the Compensation Committee’s policy is to provide benefits and perquisites to our named executive officers that are substantially the same as those offered to our other employees at or above the level of vice president. The benefits and perquisites that may be available in addition to those available to our other employees include life insurance premiums and long-term disability insurance.

401(k) Plan

We sponsor a defined contribution savings plan, or 401(k) Plan, whereby certain employees may elect to contribute, in whole percentages between 1% and 50% of such employee’s cash compensation, provided no employee’s elective contribution shall exceed the amount permitted under Section 402(g) of the Code ($17,500 for 2014, $17,500 for 2013 and $17,000 for 2012). In 2014, participants over the age of 50 could contribute an additional $5,500.

We may make an annual discretionary matching contribution up to a maximum of 6% of the employee’s annual cash compensation to the 401(k) Plan, subject to the limits specified by Section 402(g) of the Code. In 2014, our annual discretionary matching contribution was 100% up to 3% and 75% for the remaining 3% of the employee’s contribution. Our discretionary matching contributions immediately vest.

Tax Considerations

The Compensation Committee considers the tax impact to the Company when making executive compensation decisions and has a practice of delivering compensation in a tax-efficient manner whenever reasonable. However, the priority of the Compensation Committee is to provide competitive compensation that would serve the objectives of retention, reward and motivation in the best possible mix of the various compensation components in a particular year. Therefore, in certain years some compensation paid to the named executive officers may not be deductible by the Company due to the limitations of Section 162(m) of the Code.

Section 162(m) provides that the amount of compensation that we may deduct each year for our “covered employees”- the CEO and each of the three most highly paid officers (other than our CFO) - is $1 million. Elements of compensation that qualify as “performance-based compensation” are deductible even if in excess of this $1 million limit.

In structuring the compensation programs that apply to the covered employees, we considered the requirements and consequences of Section 162(m) of the Code. We designed several elements of our overall compensation program in the form of performance-based compensation. The performance awards are intended to

54 |  | CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC. |  | 2015 Proxy Statement

##### Table of Contents

qualify as performance-based compensation and shall therefore be fully tax deductible. Similarly, annual cash incentive bonuses paid pursuant to the Bonus Plan are intended to qualify as performance-based compensation.

In addition to annual cash incentive bonuses and performance awards, the Company has also granted, and may continue to grant, service-based restricted stock awards to covered employees that are not intended to be performance-based compensation and will count against the $1 million compensation deduction limit. In 2014, Messrs. Warner, Copple and Fernandes recognized compensation in excess of $1 million upon vesting of restricted stock granted in 2010, 2012 and 2013 (which was only for Mr. Warner), that was not performance-based and, in part, is not deductible by the Company under Section 162(m) of the Code.

While the Compensation Committee has taken into account the potential application of Section 162(m) of the Code on compensation decisions and the Company generally seeks to ensure the deductibility of the incentive compensation paid to the covered employees, the Compensation Committee intends to retain the flexibility necessary to continue the competitive pay practices of the Company. Therefore, not all incentive compensation awards may be fully deductible by the Company. In addition, there may be ambiguities regarding how the conditions to qualify as “performance-based” compensation will be interpreted and administered under the income tax regulations, so that amounts that the Company intends or expects to qualify as deductible may not so qualify. Accordingly, there is no certainty that all elements of compensation discussed in this proxy statement will in fact be deductible.

Compensation Risk Assessment

The Compensation Committee reviews and approves the design, goals and payouts under the Bonus Plan and the Restated Incentive Plan. The Compensation Committee monitors whether the Company’s compensation programs for executives and employees encourage unnecessary or excessive risk taking. Upon such consideration the Compensation Committee has concluded that the Company’s compensation programs do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. Below are some of the highlights of the Company’s compensation program which mitigate risks associated with compensation:

| v |  | The Company’s performance metrics are established within the first 90 days of the fiscal year;

| v |  | A mix of cash and equity awards with emphasis on equity;

| v |  | Annual cash incentive tied to Company’s overall annual performance and measured against a pre-established objective business criteria;

| v |  | Equity compensation split between long-term and short-term, to balance retention and reward for short-term performance with motivation to increase long-term stockholder value;

| v |  | Equity compensation vesting is multi-year service-based and performance-based (with overlapping performance periods);

| v |  | Compensation Committee has discretion to reduce but may not adjust upward or waive achievement of performance targets for the annual cash incentive award; and

| v |  | The Bonus Plan caps the annual cash incentive award payouts at the lesser of 200% of annual base salary or $3 million.

Key Governance Features of Executive Compensation

The Board believes in strong governance with regards to our executive compensation program. As such, the Board has adopted certain governance measure to ensure good governance of executive compensation. The compensation related governance principles are as follows:

| v |  | The change of control payment provision in the employment agreements of the executive officers is subject to a “double trigger”. In the event of a change of control, compensation and benefits vest only if the executive officer’s employment is involuntarily terminated, without cause, or where a participant terminates employment for good reason, within one year of the change of control event. There is no “golden parachute” excise tax gross-up in the event of a change of control.

| v |  | We do not have any deferred compensation or pension plans.

| v |  | Pursuant to our Supplemental Policy Concerning Trading In Company Securities By Certain Designated Persons (“Supplemental Insider Trading Policy”), our named executive officers and certain other persons are prohibited from engaging in short sales of Company securities or engaging in purchases or sales of puts, calls or other derivative securities with respect to Company securities. This prohibition is based on our belief that such transactions focus attention on the Company’s short-term performance rather than its long-term objectives.

| v |  | The Supplemental Insider Trading Policy also prohibits certain forms of hedging transactions, such as zero-cost collars and forward sale contracts. Such hedging does not expose the person hedging to the full risks of stock ownership.

| v |  | The named executive officers and certain other persons also cannot hold Company securities in a margin account or pledge Company securities as collateral for a loan (unless the covered person can clearly demonstrate the financial capacity to repay the non-margin loan without resorting to the pledged securities).

See Mix of Compensation Elements beginning on page 41 for the percentage of total annual compensation for the 2014 fiscal year paid as annual base salary to each named executive officer.

The annual base salary amounts for Messrs. Warner and Copple include the base salaries effective January 1 – January 20 and January 21 – December 31. Mr. Warner’s annual base salary for the two periods were $728,210 and $800,000 respectively. Mr. Copple’s annual base salary for the two periods were $520,150 and $600,000 respectively. Mr. Gamble’s annualized base salary for 2014 was $450,000.

(2) | The reported amounts reflect the aggregate grant date fair values of the equity awards granted during the 2014, 2013 and 2012 fiscal years, computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The amounts shown exclude the impact of estimated forfeitures. See Note 16 to the Company’s 2014 Form 10-K for a discussion of the assumptions used in determining the grant date fair values of these equity awards, including forfeiture assumptions and the period over which the Company will recognize compensation expense for such awards.

The equity awards granted were restricted stock and performance awards (in the form of restricted stock units). However, the reported amount for Mr. Gamble represents the grant date fair value of only restricted stock. Mr. Mitchell was not awarded any equity due to his substantial equity ownership in the Company.

The grant date fair values were calculated based upon the closing price of Common Stock on March 26, 2014 of $28.54, March 28, 2013 of $29.44 and March 8, 2012 of $21.63 per share for Messrs. Warner, Copple and Fernandes and August 27, 2014 of $35.49 for Mr. Gamble.

For purposes of the Summary Compensation Table for 2014, the target level of payment was assumed as the most probable outcome for the performance awards. However, as required by the rules of the SEC, the table

See Mix of Compensation Elements beginning on page 41 for the percentage of total compensation for the 2014 fiscal year paid as equity compensation to each named executive officer.

(3) | The reported amounts are the annual cash incentive bonuses earned by the named executive officers for the 2014, 2013 and 2012 fiscal years. Pursuant to the Bonus Plan, the annual cash incentive bonuses earned for a fiscal year are paid in February or March of the following year subject to the attainment of performance targets set by the Compensation Committee at the beginning of the covered fiscal year. The annual cash incentive bonuses for the 2014 fiscal year were paid on February 19, 2015, for the 2013 fiscal year were paid on February 28, 2014 and for the 2012 fiscal year paid on February 21, 2013. Mr. Gamble’s annual cash incentive bonus was pro-rated based on his service to the Company rounded up to the nearest whole month. Mr. Fernandes’s annual cash incentive bonus for all three years was calculated based on the average of worldwide Adjusted EBITDA and international Adjusted EBITDA performances. See Design of the Executive Compensation Program – Annual Cash Incentive Bonus beginning on page 49 for a discussion of the amount of annual cash incentive bonus paid in proportion to total compensation.

For Mr. Warner, the amount is the annual cash incentive bonus he would have received for the 2014 fiscal year. The annual cash incentive bonuses for the 2014 fiscal year would have been payable to the named executive officers at the same time as payments are made to other similarly situated executives.

The reported amount is based on the use of a 144 square foot office at a rental rate of approximately $23 per square foot per annum.

(5) | The amounts reported have been determined based on the following provisions in the respective employment agreements.

Pursuant to Mr. Warner’s Second Amended Agreement, any outstanding equity award with time-based vesting provisions will immediately vest as of the termination date. Any equity awards with performance-based vesting provisions will remain outstanding through the remainder of the applicable performance period and if or to the extent the performance provisions are attained shall vest without regard to any continued employment requirement.

Pursuant to the employment agreements of Messrs. Copple, Gamble and Fernandes, any outstanding equity awards with time-based vesting provisions will vest on a pro rata basis. Any equity awards with performance-based vesting provisions will remain outstanding through the remainder of the applicable performance period and if or to the extent the performance provisions are attained shall vest without regard to any continued employment requirement on a pro rata basis.

The pro rata basis for the equity awards is based on the percentage determined by dividing (i) the number of days from and including the grant date of such equity award through the termination date of the executive’s employment, by (ii) the number of days from the grant date to the full vesting date/end of the applicable performance period, as applicable, of such equity awards.

Any equity awards with performance-based vesting provisions shall remain outstanding through the remainder of the applicable performance period and if or to the extent the performance provisions are attained shall vest without regard to any continued employment requirement on a pro rata basis. The pro rata basis for the equity awards is based on the percentage determined by dividing (i) the number of days from and including the grant date of such equity award through the termination date of the executive’s employment, by (ii) the number of days from the grant date to the full vesting date/end of the applicable performance period, as applicable, of such equity awards.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Our Board has adopted a written policy supplementing our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics relating to the review, approval and ratification of transactions between us and “related parties” as generally defined by applicable rules under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The policy covers any related party transaction in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000. Our Board has determined that the Audit Committee is best suited to review and approve related party transactions, although in certain circumstances the Board may determine that a particular related party transaction be reviewed and approved by a majority of disinterested directors. In reviewing and approving a related party transaction, the Audit Committee, after satisfying itself that it has received all material information regarding the related party transaction under review, shall approve based upon the determination whether the transaction is fair and in the best interest of the Company.

75 |  | CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC. |  | 2015 Proxy Statement

##### Table of Contents

Management presents any proposed related party transaction at an Audit Committee meeting for review and approval. If management becomes aware of a proposed or existing related party transaction that has not been presented or pre-approved by the Audit Committee, management shall promptly notify the Chair of the Audit Committee who shall submit such related party transaction to the full Audit Committee for approval or ratification, if the Audit Committee determines that such transaction is fair to the Company. If management, in consultation with our CEO, CFO or General Counsel determines that it is not practicable to wait until the next Audit Committee meeting, the Chair of the Audit Committee has been delegated the authority to review, consider and approve any such transaction. In such event, the Chair of the Audit Committee shall report any related party transaction approved by him or her at the next Audit Committee meeting. The Audit Committee may establish guidelines it determines as necessary and appropriate for management to follow in dealings with related parties and related party transactions. The procedures followed in considering a related party transaction are evidenced in the resolutions and minutes of the meetings of the Audit Committee or Board, as applicable.
