Item 6
  Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with respect to Securities of the Issuer
     
 
  THE CLASS B STOCKHOLDERS’ AGREEMENT
 
   
 
  On June 9, 2011, the Group Members executed a Stockholders Agreement (the “Class B Stockholders’ Agreement”), which is filed as Exhibit 1 to this Schedule 13D. The purpose of the Class B Stockholders Agreement is to consolidate control of the Issuer among the Group Members. As a result of this agreement, the Issuer qualifies as a “controlled company” under the rules of the NASDAQ Global Market.
 
   
 
  Voting. Under the Class B Stockholders Agreement, the Group Members have agreed to vote as a group with respect to any matter on which any shares of Class B Common Stock are entitled to vote. Decisions on how the Group Members will vote with respect to their shares of Class B Common Stock will be made by (i) holders of a majority of the shares of Class B Common Stock, as long as one of Charles F. Dolan and Helen A. Dolan is alive and not permanently incapacitated, and (ii) after Charles F. Dolan and Helen A.

51 of 57


 

     
 
  Dolan have died or become permanently incapacitated, a committee comprised of Kathleen M. Dolan, Deborah A. Dolan-Sweeney, Marianne Dolan Weber, Patrick F. Dolan, Thomas C. Dolan and James L. Dolan, or their designees (the “Dolan Family Committee”), acting by majority vote, except that a supermajority approval will be required for a vote in favor of any transaction that would result in a change in control of the Issuer or a going-private transaction with respect to the Issuer. The decisions of the Dolan Family Committee will be non-binding with respect to certain Class B Shareholders that are trusts (the “Excluded Trusts”). The Excluded Trusts will vote their shares of Class B Common Stock at the direction of Excluded Trusts holding a majority of the shares of Class B Common Stock held by all of the Excluded Trusts, except that supermajority approval will be required for a vote in favor of any transaction that would result in a change in control of the Issuer or a going-private transaction with respect to the Issuer.
 
   
 
  Transfers. Without the prior approval of Charles F. Dolan, prior to his death or permanent incapacity, and, thereafter, if Helen A. Dolan is then alive and not permanently incapacitated, Helen A. Dolan, until her death or permanent incapacity (the “Dolan Approval”), and, after the death or permanent incapacity of both of them, the approval of the Dolan Family Committee, acting by a two-thirds vote, a Class B Stockholder may not transfer shares of Class B Common Stock other than to Group Members and related persons (each such party, a “Permitted Holder”) unless such shares are first converted into shares of Class A Common Stock. The foregoing requirement and the other transfer restrictions in the Class B Stockholders Agreement do not apply to Charles F. Dolan or Helen A. Dolan or any trust of which either of them is a trustee.
 
   
 
  Change in Control. No Class B Stockholders will be permitted to sell their shares of Class B Common Stock if such sale would result in a change in control of the Issuer, unless such sale is approved by Dolan Approval prior to the death or permanent incapacity of Charles F. Dolan and Helen A. Dolan, and, thereafter, by a vote of all except one of the votes on the Dolan Family Committee.
 
   
 
  Market Sale. Subject to the other transfer provisions, the parties to the Class B Stockholders Agreement will have a right of first offer and a tag-along right with respect to any proposed sale of shares of Class B Common Stock (after conversion to shares of Class A Common Stock) in an open market sale.
 
   
 
  Right of First Refusal. Subject to the other transfer provisions, the parties to the Class B Stockholders Agreement will have a right of first refusal with respect to any proposed sale of shares of Class B Common Stock, other than to a Permitted Holder, in a private transaction.
 
   
 
  Tag-Along Rights. Subject to the other transfer provisions, the parties to the Class B Stockholders Agreement will have a tag-along right with respect to any proposed sale of shares of Class B Common Stock, other than to a Permitted Holder, if such sale would result in a change in control of the Issuer.
 
   
 
  Drag-Along Rights. If, after complying with the other transfer provisions, one or more Class B Stockholders propose to sell all of their shares of Class B Common Stock, other than to a Permitted Holder, and such sale would result in a change in control of the Issuer, such Class B Stockholders will have the right to require the other Class B Stockholders to sell all of their shares of Class B Common Stock in the same transaction.
 
   
 
  The Class B Stockholders Agreement also contains certain agreements among the Group Members related to the pledge of shares of Class B Common Stock, the exercise of registration rights and other matters.
 
   
 
  The foregoing summary of the Class B Stockholders Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Class B Stockholders Agreement, which is incorporated herein by reference.

  REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENTS
 
   
 
  All Group Members other than the Dolan Children Trusts have entered into a registration rights agreement with the Issuer, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2 (the “Dolan Affiliates Agreement”), and the Dolan Children Trusts have entered into a registration rights agreement with the Issuer, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3 (the “Dolan Children Trusts Agreement” and, together with the Dolan Affiliates Agreement, the “Registration Rights Agreements”).
 
   
 
  Under the Registration Rights Agreements, the Group Members are entitled, subject to certain conditions, to require the Issuer to register the sale of some or all of their shares of Class A Common Stock (including those issued upon conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock) on one or more occasions prior to the death or disability of both Charles F. Dolan and his spouse, and on up to four occasions in the aggregate thereafter. The Group Members are also entitled to sell such shares as part of certain registered offerings by the Issuer, subject to certain conditions.
 
   
 
  In the Dolan Children Trusts Agreement, each Dolan Children Trust has agreed that in the case of any sale or disposition of its shares of Class B Common Stock (other than to Charles F. Dolan or other Dolan family interests) by such Dolan Children Trust, or of any of the shares of Class B Common Stock owned by the Dolan Children Trusts by any other Dolan family interest to which such shares of Class B Common Stock are transferred, such shares will be converted into shares of Class A Common Stock. This conversion obligation does not apply to any other shares of Class B Common Stock, and the Dolan Affiliates Agreement does not include any conversion obligation.
 
   
 
  The Dolan Children’s Foundation and the Dolan Family Foundation are also parties to, and have registration rights under, the Dolan Affiliates Agreement.
 
   
 
  The foregoing summary of the Registration Rights Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Registration Rights Agreements, which are incorporated herein by reference.
 
   
 
  STANDSTILL AGREEMENT
 
   
 
  The Group Members have entered into a Standstill Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 4 to this Schedule 13D, with the Issuer in which they have agreed that, during the 12-month period following the Spin-off, they must obtain the approval of a majority of the Issuer’s independent directors prior to acquiring common stock of the Issuer through a tender offer that results in the Group Members owning more than 50% of the total number of outstanding shares of common stock of the Issuer.
 
   
 
  The foregoing summary of the Standstill Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Standstill Agreement, which is incorporated herein by reference.
