Jimmy Wu, founder and CEO of Lumiere Pavilions, stated, "We are delighted to further expand our relationship with Guitammer by adding additional screens to our growing list of auditoriums that feature the exciting ButtKicker technology.  Our inaugural ButtKicker-enabled location in Nanjing continues to pack in patrons and the overwhelming response we have seen has encouraged us to further expand Lumiere's '4D' ButtKicker footprint to help satisfy the demands of our customers for unique and immersive experiences when they visit one of our luxurious cinemas."

Including an aggregate of previously completed and committed future installations, Lumiere Pavilions has increased its total to approximately 640 of Guitammer's ButtKicker "4D" experience seats, located in five of its China-based auditoriums, which also includes Nanjing (opened in 2011) and a recently announced Beijing location (VIP seating in a Fangcaodi multiplex – in Beijing's second circle).

ButtKicker-enhanced entertainment experiences are featured around the globe in movie theaters, simulation rides, dance floors, planetariums, science centers, amusement parks and other attractions, including over 9,000 seats at more than 80 screens in 11 countries.  Audiences at these facilities experience first-hand the excitement, impacts, special effects and bone-rattling bass that contribute to ButtKicker's proprietary "4D" immersive, patent-protected technology. 

Guitammer CEO Mark Luden added, "Lumiere Pavilions is fast becoming one of our most loyal and prolific customers and we are very pleased that Jimmy and his team have seen the benefits of rolling out our ButtKicker technology.  Their patrons are clearly enjoying the memorable experiences at their circuit's high-end theatres throughout China, the world's fastest growing cinema market.  We also continue to evaluate ways to take our relationship with Lumiere to the next level as we jointly explore ways to partner and capitalize on helping bring the unique ButtKicker experience into their theater guests' homes with our wide range of ButtKicker consumer products."
