Regal Entertainment’s ex-CEO took home a $14.6 million payout when she and the Knoxville-based theater chain’s other top executives resigned this week, reports Know News, a part of the USA Today network.

Reporter Matt Lakin writes that a report filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission lists the severance packages awarded to Amy Miles, Regal’s CEO since 2009, and three others.

One of those, general counsel Peter Brandow will receive a $1.04 million payment and an $1.1 million bonus, for an ultimate total payout of $4.7 million. He’d been general counsel since 1999.

“The four bowed out under the terms of Regal’s merger with UK-based Cineworld Group PLC, which became final Wednesday,” writes Lakin.
