opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if he or she had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative
actions, except that indemnification only extends to expenses incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such actions, and the statute requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking
indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. The statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a corporation&#146;s by-laws, disinterested director vote, stockholder vote, agreement or
otherwise. </P>

statute, provision of the certificate of incorporation, by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. The Registrant&#146;s certificate of incorporation will also specifically authorize the Registrant to maintain

agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. The indemnification agreements will provide that the Registrant will, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, and subject to the terms and conditions of each indemnification
agreement, indemnify each director and executive officer against certain types of liabilities and pay or reimburse certain expenses if the director or executive officer is involved in any manner (including as a party or witness) in certain types of
proceedings by reason of the fact of such person&#146;s service as a director, officer, partner, trustee, fiduciary, manager or employee of the Registrant or of any other corporation, limited liability company, public limited company, partnership,
joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan, fund or other enterprise (a)&nbsp;that is affiliated with the Registrant or (b)&nbsp;at the written request of the Board of Directors of the Registrant, a committee thereof, the Executive Chairman or the
Chief Executive Officer of the Registrant. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A Distribution Agreement between the Registrant and The Madison Square Garden Company, to be

liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The amount of these indemnity obligations is unlimited. </P> <P STYLE="font-size:18pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

ITEM 4.
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

ITEM 5.
INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

ITEM 6.
INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Section 145 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law provides that a corporation may indemnify any current or former director, officer or employee or other individual against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative actions or proceedings, other than a derivative action by or in the right of the corporation, if the director, officer, employee or other individual acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if he or she had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative
actions, except that indemnification only extends to expenses incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such actions, and the statute requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking
indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. The statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a corporation's by-laws, disinterested director vote, stockholder vote, agreement or
otherwise.
-2-
The Registrant's certificate of incorporation will provide that each person who was or is
made or is threatened to be made a party to any action or proceeding by reason of the fact that such person, or a person of whom such person is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer of the Registrant or is or was serving at the
Registrant's request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, will be indemnified and held harmless
by the Registrant to the fullest extent authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended. Such rights are not exclusive of any other right which any person may have or thereafter acquire under any
statute, provision of the certificate of incorporation, by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. The Registrant's certificate of incorporation will also specifically authorize the Registrant to maintain
insurance and to grant similar indemnification rights to its employees or agents.
The Registrant expects to enter into indemnification
agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. The indemnification agreements will provide that the Registrant will, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, and subject to the terms and conditions of each indemnification
agreement, indemnify each director and executive officer against certain types of liabilities and pay or reimburse certain expenses if the director or executive officer is involved in any manner (including as a party or witness) in certain types of
proceedings by reason of the fact of such person's service as a director, officer, partner, trustee, fiduciary, manager or employee of the Registrant or of any other corporation, limited liability company, public limited company, partnership,
joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan, fund or other enterprise (a) that is affiliated with the Registrant or (b) at the written request of the Board of Directors of the Registrant, a committee thereof, the Executive Chairman or the
Chief Executive Officer of the Registrant.
A Distribution Agreement between the Registrant and The Madison Square Garden Company, to be
renamed MSG Networks Inc. ("MSGN"), provides for indemnification by the Registrant of MSGN and its directors, officers and employees and by MSGN of the Registrant and its directors, officers and employees for some liabilities, including
liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The amount of these indemnity obligations is unlimited.

ITEM 9.
UNDERTAKINGS
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i)
To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii)
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement; and
(iii)
To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that paragraphs (i) and (ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective
amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the
registration statement.
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and
the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of the Plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to
be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to
directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its
counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
