Commitments

As more fully described in Notes 10 and 11 to the consolidated financial statements of the Company included in the Company's Transition Report on Form 10-K/T for the six month transition period ended June 30, 2011, the Company's commitments primarily consist of the MSG Media segment's obligations related to professional team rights, acquired under license agreements, to telecast certain live sporting events, the MSG Sports segment's obligations under employment agreements that the Company has with its professional sports teams' personnel, long-term noncancelable operating lease agreements for entertainment venues and office and storage space, and minimum purchase requirements. These arrangements result from the Company's normal course of business and represent obligations that may be payable over several years.

Legal Matters

The Company is a defendant in various lawsuits. Although the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not believe that resolution of these lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on the Company.
