The information set forth in Item 6 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated herein by reference.
    Item 4.Purpose of Transaction
     
    Item 4 is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows: On May 6, 2025, the Issuer completed the separation of the businesses of Lionsgate Studios Corp. ("LG Studios"), which encompasses its motion picture and television studio operations (the "LG Studios Business"), from the other businesses of the Issuer, including the STARZ-branded premium subscription platforms (the "Starz Business"), through a series of transactions (the "Transactions") that resulted in the Reporting Persons owning shares in two separately traded public companies: (1) the Issuer, which holds, directly and through subsidiaries, the Starz Business and (2) LG Studios, which holds, directly and through subsidiaries, the LG Studios Business. In connection with the completion of the Transactions, among other things: - LGEC shareholders, including DLI, first received, in exchange for each outstanding Class A voting share of LGEC, without par value ("LGEC Class A Shares"), that they held: o One (1) LG Studios Class A voting common share, without par value ("LG Studios Class A Shares"); and o One (1) LG Studios Class C preferred share, with one-half (1/2) of a vote per share, without par value ("LG Studios Class C Preferred Shares"). - LGEC shareholders, including DLI, first received, in exchange for each outstanding Class B non-voting share of LGEC, without par value ("LGEC Class B Shares"), that they held: o One (1) LG Studios Class B non-voting common share, without par value ("LG Studios Class B Shares"); and o One (1) LG Studios Class C Preferred Share. Such exchange transactions by LGEC shareholders are collectively referred to as the "Initial Share Exchange." - LGEC changed its name to Starz Entertainment Corp. and created a new class of voting Common Shares. - LG Studios created a new class of common shares, without par value ("LG Studios Common Shares") and LG Studios shareholders (formerly LGEC shareholders, including DLI) received, in exchange for each: o LG Studios Class A Share they held, together with each LG Studios Class C Preferred Share they held and which was issued in exchange for an LGEC Class A Share in the Initial Share Exchange, one and twelve one-hundredths (1.12) LG Studios Common Shares and one and twelve one-hundredths (1.12) Common Shares; and o LG Studios Class B Share they held, together with each LG Studios Class C Preferred Share they held and which was issued in exchange for an LGEC Class B Share in the Initial Share Exchange, one (1) LG Studios Common Share and one (1) Common Share. Such exchange transactions by LGEC shareholders are collectively referred to as the "Second Share Exchange." - Following the Second Share Exchange, the Common Shares were consolidated on a 15-to-1 basis, such that every fifteen (15) Common Shares were consolidated into one (1) Common Share (the "Reverse Stock Split"). As a result of the Transactions, DLI received 353,334 Common Shares in exchange for interests in securities of the Issuer held prior to the Transactions. The Reporting Persons acquired beneficial ownership of the Common Shares described in this Schedule 13D for investment purposes. Pursuant to the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement (as defined and described in Item 6 below) entered into in connection with the completion of the Transactions, WBD has the right to nominate a member of the board of directors of the Issuer (the "Board"). On May 6, 2025, Mr. Marc Graboff was appointed as a member of the Board as a designee of WBD pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement. The description of the Investor Rights Agreement in Item 6 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated herein by reference. Consistent with the Reporting Persons' investment purposes, subject to the terms of the Voting Agreement (as defined and described in Item 6 below), the Reporting Persons may engage in communications with, without limitation, management of the Issuer, one or more members of the Board or other relevant parties, and may make suggestions concerning the Issuer's operations, prospects, business and financial strategies, strategic direction and transactions, assets and liabilities, business and financing alternatives, future plans of the Issuer and such other matters as the Reporting Persons may deem relevant to their investment in the Common Shares. The description of the Voting Agreement in Item 6 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated herein by reference. Subject to the terms of the Voting Agreement, depending on various factors, including but not limited to the Issuer's business, prospects, financial position and strategic direction, actions taken by the Board, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, conditions in the securities markets, and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may take any actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment continually and evaluate on an ongoing basis various alternatives that are or may become available with respect to the Issuer and its securities. Subject to the terms of the Voting Agreement, the Reporting Persons may from time to time acquire additional equity or debt securities or other instruments of the Issuer or dispose of such equity or debt securities or other instruments in any amount that the Reporting Persons may determine in their sole discretion, through open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The Reporting Persons reserve the right to change their purpose and to formulate and implement plans or proposals with respect to the Issuer at any time and from time to time. The Reporting Persons may also take steps to explore and prepare for various plans and actions, and propose transactions, before forming an intention to engage in such plans or actions or proceed with such transactions. Subject to the terms of the Voting Agreement, any such action may be taken or advocated by the Reporting Persons alone or in conjunction with other shareholders, potential acquirers, financing sources and/or other third parties, and could include one or more purposes, plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the transactions, matters or effects enumerated in Items 4(a) through (j) of Schedule 13D. Any actions taken by the Reporting Persons shall at all times be consistent with their obligations under the Voting Agreement. Except as set forth above, the Reporting Persons have no plans or proposals with respect to the Issuer.
    Item 5.Interest in Securities of the Issuer
    (a)
    Item 5 is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows: The responses of each of the Reporting Persons with respect to Rows 11, 12, and 13 of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D that relate to the aggregate number and percentage of Common Shares (including but not limited to footnotes to such information) are incorporated herein by reference. The responses of each of the Reporting Persons with respect to Rows 7, 8, 9, and 10 of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D that relate to the number of Common Shares as to which each of the persons or entities referenced in Item 2 above has sole or shared power to vote or to direct the vote of and sole or shared power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of (including but not limited to footnotes to such information) are incorporated herein by reference. DLI holds 353,334 Common Shares directly. Because DLI is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of WBD, WBD may be deemed to beneficially own the 353,334 Common Shares held directly by DLI, and share voting and investment power over such shares. DLI is required to vote the Common Shares beneficially owned by it in respect of certain matters in accordance with the Voting Agreement. See the description of the Voting Agreement in Item 6 of this Schedule 13D, which is incorporated herein by reference. DLI is also subject to restrictions on the sale of its Common Shares pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement.

The beneficial ownership information set forth above does not include any securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by certain funds affiliated with MHR Fund Management or their affiliates, including Mark H. Rachesky, M.D., Liberty Parent or Liberty. As a result of the agreements described in Item 6 of this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own and share voting power over the Common Shares owned by the funds affiliated with MHR Fund Management, Liberty and certain of their affiliates. Based on Amendment No. 31 to Schedule 13D, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on the date hereof, by MHR Institutional Partners III LP, MHR Institutional Advisors III LLC, MHR Fund Management, MHR Holdings LLC and Mark H. Rachesky, M.D., various funds affiliated with MHR Fund Management and Mark H. Rachesky, M.D. beneficially own an aggregate of 2,524,510 Common Shares (approximately 15.1% of the total number of Common Shares outstanding). Based on Amendment No. 10 to Schedule 13D, filed with the SEC on the date hereof, by Liberty and Liberty Parent, Liberty directly owns an aggregate of 469,065 Common Shares (approximately 2.8% of the total number of Common Shares outstanding). Liberty is a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Parent.
    (b)
    The information provided in Item 5(a) of this Schedule 13D is incorporated herein by reference.
    (c)

    (d)
    Not applicable.
    (e)

    Item 6.Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer
     
    Item 6 is hereby amended by adding the following to the end thereof: Investor Rights Agreement. On May 6, 2025, WBD and DLI entered into an investor rights agreement (the "Investor Rights Agreement") with the Issuer, Liberty Parent, Liberty, MHR Fund Management and affiliates of MHR Fund Management. The Investor Rights Agreement provides that (1) for so long as funds affiliated with MHR Fund Management beneficially own at least 10,000,000 Common Shares (prior to the Reverse Stock Split and as adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock split or similar event) in the aggregate, the Issuer will include three designees of MHR Fund Management (at least one of whom will be an independent director and will be subject to Board approval) on its slate of director nominees for election at each future annual meeting of the Issuer's shareholders, (2) for so long as funds affiliated with MHR Fund Management beneficially own at least 7,500,000, but less than 10,000,000, Common Shares (prior to the Reverse Stock Split and as adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock split or similar event) in the aggregate, the Issuer will include two designees of MHR Fund Management on its slate of director nominees for election at each future annual meeting of the Issuer's shareholders and (3) for so long as funds affiliated with MHR Fund Management beneficially own at least 5,000,000, but less than 7,500,000, Common Shares (prior to the Reverse Stock Split and as adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock split or similar event) in the aggregate, the Issuer will include one designee of MHR Fund Management on its slate of director nominees for election at each future annual meeting of the Issuer's shareholders. Mark H. Rachesky, M.D., the Chairman of the Board, and Ms. Fine count as designees of MHR Fund Management. In addition, the Investor Rights Agreement provides that (1) for so long as Liberty Parent and WBD (together with certain of their affiliates) beneficially own at least 10,000,000 Common Shares (prior to the Reverse Stock Split and as adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock split or similar event) in the aggregate, the Issuer will include one designee of Liberty Parent and one designee of WBD on its slate of director nominees for election at each future annual meeting of the Issuer's shareholders and (2) for so long as Liberty Parent and WBD (together with certain of their affiliates) beneficially own at least 5,000,000, but less than 10,000,000, Common Shares (prior to the Reverse Stock Split and as adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock split or similar event) in the aggregate, the Issuer will include one designee of Liberty Parent and WBD, collectively, on its slate of director nominees for election at each future annual meeting of the Issuer's shareholders, selected by (a) Liberty Parent, if Liberty Parent (together with certain of its affiliates) individually exceeds such 5,000,000 Common Shares threshold but WBD (together with certain of its affiliates) does not, (b) WBD, if WBD (together with certain of its affiliates) individually exceeds such 5,000,000 Common Shares threshold but Liberty Parent (together with certain of its affiliates) does not and (c) Liberty Parent and WBD, jointly, if neither Liberty Parent nor WBD (together with certain of their affiliates) individually exceeds such 5,000,000 Common Shares threshold. Mr. Graboff counts as a designee of WBD and Mr. Mann counts as a designee of Liberty Parent. Under the Investor Rights Agreement, Liberty Parent and WBD (together with certain of their affiliates) have agreed that if they sell or transfer any of their Common Shares to a shareholder or group of shareholders that beneficially own 5% or more of the Common Shares, or that would result in a person or group of persons beneficially owning 5% or more of the Common Shares, any such transferee would have to agree to the transfer and voting provisions set forth in the Investor Rights Agreement, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Investor Rights Agreement. The Issuer has also agreed to provide Liberty Parent, WBD and MHR Fund Management with certain pre-emptive rights on Common Shares that the Issuer may issue in the future for cash consideration. Upon execution of the Investor Rights Agreement, the existing Investor Rights Agreement, dated as of November 10, 2015 and as amended from time to time, was automatically terminated and of no further force or effect. The foregoing description of the Investor Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Investor Rights Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.12 and incorporated herein by reference. Voting Agreement. On May 6, 2025, WBD and DLI entered into a voting agreement with the Issuer, Liberty Parent, Liberty, MHR Fund Management and certain affiliates of MHR Fund Management (the "Voting Agreement"). Under the Voting Agreement, Liberty Parent and WBD have agreed to vote, in any vote of the Issuer's shareholders on a merger, amalgamation, plan of arrangement, consolidation, business combination, third party tender offer, asset sale or other similar transaction involving the Issuer or any of the Issuer's subsidiaries (and any proposal relating to the issuance of capital, increase in the authorized capital or, subject to certain exceptions, any amendment to any constitutional documents in connection with any of the foregoing), all of the Common Shares beneficially owned by them (together with certain of their affiliates) in excess of 18.5% of the Issuer's outstanding voting power in the aggregate in the same proportion as the votes cast by shareholders other than Liberty Parent and WBD (together with certain of their affiliates). Although the Common Shares beneficially owned by each of DLI and Liberty will be aggregated for purposes of determining compliance with such ownership restrictions, the Reporting Persons do not have any agreement with Liberty regarding such limitation. In addition, each of Liberty Parent, WBD and MHR Fund Management (together with certain of their affiliates) has agreed that as long as any of them have the right to nominate at least one representative to the Board, each of them will vote all of Common Shares owned by them (together with certain of their affiliates) in favor of each of the other's respective director nominees, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Voting Agreement. Under the Voting Agreement, Liberty Parent and WBD (together with certain of their affiliates) have also agreed that if they sell or transfer any of their Common Shares to a shareholder or group of shareholders that beneficially own 5% or more of the Common Shares, or that would result in a person or group of persons beneficially owning 5% or more of the Common Shares, any such transferee would have to agree to the transfer and voting provisions set forth in the Voting Agreement, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Voting Agreement. Upon execution of the Voting Agreement, the existing Voting and Standstill Agreement, dated as of November 10, 2015 and as amended from time to time, was automatically terminated and of no further force or effect. The foregoing description of the Voting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Voting Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.13 and incorporated herein by reference. Registration Rights Agreement. On May 6, 2025, DLI entered into a registration rights agreements with the Issuer (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), which provides DLI (together with certain of their affiliates) with certain registration rights, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein. Among other things, DLI will be entitled to two demand registration rights to request that the Issuer register all or a portion of its Common Shares. In addition, in the event that the Issuer proposes to register any of the Issuer's equity securities or securities convertible into or exchangeable for the Issuer's equity securities, either for the Issuer's own account or for the account of other security holders, DLI will be entitled to certain "piggyback" registration rights allowing them to include their shares in such registration, subject to customary limitations. As a result, whenever the Issuer proposes to file a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other than with respect to a registration statement on Forms S-4 or S-8 or certain other exceptions, DLI will be entitled to notice of the registration and have the right, subject to certain limitations, to include their shares in the registration. The registration rights described above will terminate on the first anniversary of the date that DLI (together with certain of its affiliates) both (i) beneficially owns less than 334,436 Common Shares, subject to equitable adjustment (which amount, for the avoidance of doubt, represents approximately 2% of the Common Shares outstanding as of May 7, 2025), and (ii) ceases to have a designated representative on the Board. Liberty has entered into a similar registration rights agreement with the Issuer. Upon execution of the Registration Rights Agreement, the existing Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of November 10, 2015, was automatically terminated and of no further force or effect. The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Registration Rights Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.14 and incorporated herein by reference.
