ICARN, BRETT ICAHN, ICAHN PARTNERS LP, HIGH RIVER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, HOPPER INVESTMENTS LLC, BARBERRY CORP., ICAHN ONSHORE LP, ICAHN OFFSHORE LP, ICAHN CAPITAL LP, IPH GP LLC, ICAHN ENTERPRISES HOLDINGS L.P., ICAHN ENTERPRISES G.P. INC., and BECKTON CORP., Defendants. AMENDED COMPLAINT Plaintiff Lions Gate Entertainment Corp. ("Lionsgate") by its undersigned counsel alleges, upon knowledge as to itself and its own acts and upon information and belief as to all other matters, as follows against Carl C. kahn ("kahn"), Brett kahn, and the other defendants named above (collectively, the "kahn Group"): OVERVIEW 1. In March 2010, corporate raider Carl kahn declared his intent to take control of Lionsgate, a leading independent film and television studio that produces critically acclaimed hits such as the Oscar-winning Precious and the Emmy-winning "Mad Men." kahn based his campaign for control on the charge that Lionsgate's management was imprudently pursuing merger transactions, above all what he characterized as a "misguided strategy" of acquiring legendary film studio Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Inc. ("MGM") that he told the market would end in "oblivion" and "bankruptcy." 2. It turns out that kahn has been misleading Lionsgate and its shareholders all along. While urging Lionsgate shareholders to support his takeover campaign - either by tendering their stock or by voting for his dissident slate of nominees to Lionsgate's board of Case 1:10-cv-08169-HB Document 24 Filed 12/03/10 Page 2 of 33 directors - to ensure that Lionsgate did not pursue what he called a "delusional" MGM transaction, kahn quietly studied the merits of a Lionsgate-MGM transaction and amassed a huge position in MGM debt with the undisclosed intention of reaping profits from both sides in an eventual merger.
