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

|
|
|
|
|
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 Childrens 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 Issuers 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

Exhibit A
Kathleen M. Dolan is a co-Trustee of each of the Charles F. Dolan Children Trust FBO James L.
Dolan (with Paul J. Dolan as co-Trustee), the Charles F. Dolan Children Trust FBO Patrick F. Dolan
(with Mary S. Dolan as co-Trustee), the Charles F. Dolan Children Trust FBO Thomas C. Dolan (with
Matthew J. Dolan as co-Trustee), the Charles F. Dolan Children Trust FBO Kathleen M. Dolan (with
Paul J. Dolan as co-Trustee), the Charles F. Dolan Children Trust FBO Marianne Dolan Weber (with
Matthew J. Dolan as co-Trustee) and the Charles F. Dolan Children Trust FBO Deborah Dolan-Sweeney
(with Mary S. Dolan as co-Trustee) (hereinafter referred to, collectively, as the Dolan Children
Trusts, and individually, as a Dolan Children Trust).
The following table lists each Dolan Children Trusts name and the name of its beneficiary
(each a Current Beneficiary).

For each Dolan Children Trust other than the Dolan Children Trust for the benefit of Kathleen
M. Dolan, distributions of income and principal can be made in the discretion of the Trustees to
the Current Beneficiary. For the Dolan Children Trust for the benefit of Kathleen M. Dolan,
distributions of income and principal can be made in the discretion of the non-beneficiary Trustee
to the Current Beneficiary. The Current Beneficiary of each Dolan Children Trust has the power to
appoint additional or successor Trustees, including himself or herself, and to remove Trustees with
respect to his or her trust. In the event that a Current Beneficiary becomes a Trustee of his or
her trust, distributions of income and principal to the Current Beneficiary will be made in the
discretion of the non-beneficiary Trustee. For each Dolan Children Trust, the Current Beneficiary
has the power during his or her life to appoint all or part of the assets of his or her trust to or
for the benefit of one or more of his or her descendants. Any unappointed portion of such trust
will pass, in further trust, per stirpes to the Current Beneficiarys then living descendants, or
if none, per stirpes to the then living descendants of Charles F. Dolan, or if none, among the
heirs-at-law of Charles F. Dolan.
The Current Beneficiary of any Dolan Children Trust can be said to have only a contingent
economic interest in the securities of the Issuer held by such Dolan Children Trust because the
non-beneficiary Trustee thereof has the sole discretion to distribute or accumulate the income from
each Dolan Children Trust and the sole discretion to distribute the principal of each Dolan
Children Trust to the Current Beneficiary of such Dolan Children Trust.
1
Kathleen M. Dolan is the sole Trustee of the Ryan Dolan 1989 Trust and the Tara Dolan 1989
Trust (together, the CFD 1989 Grandchildren Trusts and individually, a CFD 1989 Grandchild
Trust). All of the net income of the relevant CFD 1989 Grandchild Trust is distributed to the respective
beneficiary. In addition, during the continuance of the relevant CFD 1989 Grandchild Trust, the
Trustee in the Trustees discretion may distribute the principal of the relevant CFD 1989
Grandchild Trust to or for the benefit of the respective beneficiary. Upon the respective
beneficiary attaining age 40, the relevant CFD 1989 Grandchild Trust for the respective beneficiary
terminates and is to be distributed to such beneficiary. If the respective beneficiary dies before
attaining age 40, such beneficiary has a testamentary general power of appointment over the
relevant CFD 1989 Grandchild Trust. In default of the exercise of such power of appointment, the
relevant CFD 1989 Grandchild Trust will be distributed to the respective beneficiarys then-living
issue, per stirpes, or if none, to Charles F. Dolans then-living grandchildren, in equal shares,
or if none, to Charles F. Dolans then-living issue, per stirpes.
Each of Lawrence J. Dolan and David M. Dolan (each, a 2009 Family Trustee and together, the
2009 Family Trustees) is currently a trustee of the Charles F. Dolan 2009 Family Trusts (the
2009 Family Trusts). The property held in the 2009 Family Trusts is held in separate trusts,
such that there is one trust in respect of each living child of Charles F. Dolan. The beneficiaries
of each trust are the child for whom the trust was set apart and his or her descendants (each, a Beneficiary). As a 2009
Family Trustee, Lawrence J. Dolan has the shared power to vote and dispose of all shares held by
the 2009 Family Trusts. David M. Dolan, as a 2009 Family Trustee, shares the power to vote and
dispose of all shares held by the 2009 Family Trusts.
During the life of each child of Charles F. Dolan, distributions of income
and principal of his or her trust can be made in the discretion of Lawrence J. Dolan and David M. Dolan,
as 2009 Family Trustees, among the beneficiaries of each such trust. After the death or incompetence of
both Charles F. Dolan and Helen A. Dolan, each child of Charles F. Dolan will have the power to appoint
additional or successor Trustees, including himself or herself, and to remove Trustees with respect
to his or her 2009 Family Trust. In the event that a Beneficiary becomes a Trustee of his or her
2009 Family Trust, distributions of income and principal from such 2009 Family Trust will be made in the
discretion of the non-beneficiary Trustee. Charles F. Dolan has the right to substitute assets
with each of the 2009 Family Trusts, subject to the 2009 Family Trustees reasonable satisfaction
that the substitute assets received by the trust are of equal value to the trust property exchanged
therefor.
Each child of Charles F. Dolan has a testamentary power of appointment over the 2009 Family Trust for his or
her benefit, except that any shares of Class B Common Stock can only be appointed in further trust
for the benefit of any one or more of the descendants of Charles F. Dolan upon substantially the
same terms as the 2009 Family Trusts. Upon the death of a child of Charles F. Dolan, the 2009
Family Trustees will distribute any remaining unappointed trust principal of such trust in
continuing trust for such Childs then living descendants, per stirpes. If there are no such
living descendants, then the 2009 Family Trustees will distribute any remaining trust principal to
the other 2009 Family Trusts for the benefit of the then living descendants of Charles F. Dolan.
If there are no such living descendants, the trust principal will be distributed to the Dolan
Family Foundation or any successor thereto or, if it is not then in existence, then to a charitable
organization.
Each Beneficiary has a right of withdrawal with respect to certain contributions made to his
or her respective trust that constitute a gift within the meaning of Chapter 12 of the Internal
Revenue Code, and
2
that do not exceed the gift tax exclusion found in Section 2503(b) of the Code. If the right
of withdrawal is not exercised, such right lapses with respect to all or a certain portion of such
gift on each of the following dates: (i) 30 days following Charles F. Dolans death, (ii) the last
day of the calendar year in which such gift is made (or 60 days following the gift, if later), and
(iii) the first day of the subsequent calendar year. A donor may deny any Beneficiary the right of
withdrawal with respect to a gift. To the extent of this right of withdrawal, each Beneficiary of
such trust may be said to have a direct economic interest in trust assets, including, if
applicable, securities of the Issuer which may be contributed as a gift to the 2009 Family Trusts.
Currently, no portion of trust assets may be withdrawn by any Beneficiary pursuant to the right of
withdrawal.
Except to the extent of the right of withdrawal, each Beneficiary of the 2009 Family Trusts
has only a contingent economic interest in the securities of the Issuer held by the 2009 Family
Trusts because Lawrence J. Dolan and David M. Dolan, as 2009 Family Trustees thereof, have the sole
discretion to distribute or accumulate the income and the sole discretion to distribute the
principal of the 2009 Family Trusts to each Beneficiary.

following table lists each 2009 Family Trusts name and the

Each of Lawrence J. Dolan and David M. Dolan (each, a 2010 Grandchildren Trustee and
together, the 2010 Grandchildren Trustees) is currently a trustee of the Charles F. Dolan 2010
Grandchildren Trusts (the 2010 Grandchildren Trusts). The property held in the 2010
Grandchildren Trusts is held in five separate trusts, such that there is one trust in respect of
the descendants, respectively, of each of the following children of Charles F. Dolan: James L.
Dolan, Patrick F. Dolan, Kathleen M. Dolan, Marianne Dolan Weber and Deborah A. Dolan-Sweeney. The
beneficiaries of each trust are the descendants of each child for whom the trust was set apart
(collectively, the Beneficiaries). As a 2010 Grandchildren Trustee, Lawrence J. Dolan has the
shared power to vote and dispose of any shares held by the 2010 Grandchildren Trusts. David M.
Dolan, as a 2010 Grandchildren Trustee, shares the power to vote and dispose of any shares held by
the 2010 Grandchildren Trusts.
Distributions of income and principal of each 2010 Grandchildren Trust can be made in the
discretion of Lawrence J. Dolan and David M. Dolan, as 2010 Grandchildren Trustees, to any one or
more of the Beneficiaries of each such trust, without equality of treatment. After the death or
incompetence of both Charles F. Dolan and Helen A. Dolan, each child of Charles F. Dolan will have
the power to appoint additional or successor Trustees (not including himself or herself) and to
remove Trustees with respect to the 2010 Grandchildren Trust for the benefit of his or her
descendants. After the death of a child of Charles F. Dolan, a majority of the adult descendants
of that child will have the power to appoint additional or
3
successor Trustees (including themselves) and to remove Trustees with respect to the 2010
Grandchildren Trust for their benefit. In the event that a Beneficiary becomes a Trustee of the
2010 Grandchildren Trust of which he or she is a beneficiary, distributions of income and principal
from such trust will be made in the discretion of the non-beneficiary Trustee. Charles F. Dolan
has the right to substitute assets with each of the 2010 Grandchildren Trusts, subject to the 2010
Grandchildren Trustees reasonable satisfaction that the substitute assets received by the trust
are of equal value to the trust property exchanged therefor.
Upon the death of the last surviving Beneficiary of a 2010 Grandchildren Trust, the 2010
Grandchildren Trustees will distribute any remaining trust principal to the other 2010
Grandchildren Trusts for the benefit of the then living descendants of Charles F. Dolans children.
If there are no such living descendants, the trust principal will be distributed to the Dolan
Family Foundation or any successor thereto or, if it is not then in existence, then to a charitable
organization.
Each Beneficiary has a right of withdrawal with respect to certain contributions made to the
trust of which he or she is a beneficiary that constitute a gift within the meaning of Chapter 12
of the Internal Revenue Code, and that do not exceed the gift tax exclusion found in Section
2503(b) of the Code. If the right of withdrawal is not exercised, such right lapses with respect
to all or a certain portion of such gift on each of the following dates: (i) 30 days following
Charles F. Dolans death, (ii) the last day of the calendar year in which such gift is made (or 60
days following the gift, if later), and (iii) the first day of the subsequent calendar year. A
donor may deny any Beneficiary the right of withdrawal with respect to a gift. To the extent of
this right of withdrawal, each Beneficiary of such trust may be said to have a direct economic
interest in trust assets, including, if applicable, securities of the Issuer which may be
contributed as a gift to the 2010 Grandchildren Trusts. Currently, no portion of trust assets may
be withdrawn by any Beneficiary pursuant to the right of withdrawal.
Except to the extent of the right of withdrawal, each Beneficiary of the 2010 Grandchildren
Trusts has only a contingent economic interest in any securities of the Issuer held by the
2010 Grandchildren Trusts because Lawrence J. Dolan and David M. Dolan, as 2010 Grandchildren
Trustees have the sole discretion to distribute or accumulate the income and the sole
discretion to distribute the principal of the 2010 Grandchildren Trusts to the Beneficiaries.

CLASS B STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT
Class B Stockholders Agreement (as amended from time to time, the Agreement), dated
as of June 9, 2011, by and among each of the signatories hereto and each Person who becomes a party
to this Agreement in accordance with Section 13.5 hereof.
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, each of the Class B Stockholders listed on Schedule A hereto is currently the
record owner of Shares, in the amounts set forth next to such stockholders name on such schedule;
WHEREAS, the Shares owned by most of the individual Class B Stockholders represent only a
small portion of the voting power of all of the outstanding shares of common stock of AMC Networks
Inc., a Delaware corporation (AMC), but, collectively, the Shares owned by all the Class
B Stockholders represent a significant portion of such voting power;
WHEREAS, each of the Class B Stockholders, each of the trustees (each individually, a
Trustee and collectively, the Trustees) of the Class B Stockholders which are
trusts (each such trust, a Class B Trust and collectively, the Class B Trusts)
and each of the Members (as defined in Section 2.1) believes that it is in the best long-term
interests of the Class B Stockholders and the beneficiaries of the Class B Trusts to consolidate
and unify the voting, management and control power represented by the Shares, to qualify AMC as a
controlled company under the listing standards of the NASDAQ Global Market and to ensure the
continued control of AMC by the family of Charles F. Dolan;
WHEREAS, each of the agreements establishing the respective Class B Trusts provides, in part,
that the Trustee or Trustees of each of such Class B Trusts may enter into this Agreement on behalf
of such Class B Trusts, and each such Trustee has been duly authorized, on behalf of such Class B
Trusts, to enter into, execute and deliver this Agreement and perform all of the obligations
contained herein, including, without limitation, those provisions with respect to the voting and
transfer of Shares;
WHEREAS, at a meeting of the Board of Directors of AMC (the Board), held on June 6,
2011, the Board approved the Agreement and the entering into the Agreement by each of the Class B
Stockholders listed on Schedule A hereto;
WHEREAS, certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 14.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual promises and agreements
contained herein, the Class B Stockholders and the Members agree as follows:
1
Section 1. Voting Arrangements.
1.1. On any matter on which any Shares are entitled to vote, each Class B Stockholder shall
vote all of the respective Shares over which such Class B Stockholder has voting control and shall
take all other necessary or desirable actions within such respective Class B Stockholders control
(including in his or her capacity as a stockholder, trustee or otherwise, and including, without
limitation, attendance at meetings in person or by proxy for purposes of obtaining a quorum and/or
execution of written consents in lieu of meetings) to vote all such Shares that may be voted on
such matter as follows:
(a) prior to the death or Permanent Incapacity of both Charles F. Dolan and Helen A. Dolan
(the Transition Time), in accordance with the determination of a majority of the Shares
voted at a meeting of the Class B Stockholders; provided that (i) at least a
majority of the then outstanding Shares is represented at such meeting (including by proxy),
(ii) all Class B Stockholders have been duly notified, or have waived notice, of such
meeting in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 4.2 (in analogous application
thereof), (iii) such meeting may be attended telephonically or by other means by virtue of
which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other and (iv) notwithstanding
the foregoing, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Class B
Stockholders may be taken without a meeting if holders representing a majority of the then
outstanding Class B common stock of AMC (Class B Common Stock) consent thereto in writing
(such a majority, the Class B Majority);
(b) after the Transition Time,
(i) in accordance with the determination of the Dolan Family Committee, acting by
Majority Vote, except in the case of (x) a vote on a Going-Private Transaction, in
which case acting by a Two-Thirds Majority Vote (it being understood and agreed that
nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require any Class B Stockholder to
participate, directly or indirectly, as a buyer in any Going-Private Transaction) and
(y) a vote on a transaction that would result in a Change in Control, in which case
acting by a Supermajority Vote; provided that, with respect to any Excluded Trust,
the decisions of the Dolan Family Committee will be deemed non-binding recommendations and
nothing in this Section 1.1(b)(i) shall require the Trustees of the Excluded Trusts to act
in accordance with the determination of the Dolan Family Committee; and
(ii) with respect to any Excluded Trusts, in accordance with the determination of
Excluded Trusts holding a majority of the Shares held by all of the Excluded Trusts, except
in the case of a vote on a Going-Private Transaction or a transaction that would result in
a Change of Control, in which case in accordance with the determination of Excluded Trusts
holding two-thirds of the Shares held by all of the Excluded Trusts, in each case that are
voted at a meeting of the Excluded
2
Trusts; provided that (w) at least a majority of the then outstanding
Shares held by all of the Excluded Trusts is represented at such meeting (including by
proxy), (x) all Excluded Trusts have been duly notified, or have waived notice, of
such meeting in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 4.2 (in analogous
application thereof), (y) such meeting may be attended telephonically or by other
means by virtue of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other and
(z) notwithstanding the foregoing, any action required or permitted to be taken at
any meeting of the Excluded Trusts may be taken without a meeting if Excluded Trusts
representing a majority of the then outstanding Shares held by all of the Excluded Trusts
consent thereto in writing.
1.2. In order to secure each Class B Stockholders obligation to vote its, his or her Shares
in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.1, each Class B Stockholder hereby appoints such
person as shall be designated in connection with each vote pursuant to Section 1.1 by the Class B
Majority or the Dolan Family Committee, as the case may be (such person, the Applicable
Proxy), as its, his or her true and lawful proxy and attorney-in-fact, with full power of
substitution, to vote all of such Class B Stockholders Shares as provided for in Section 1.1;
provided that the irrevocable proxy granted hereunder by the Excluded Trusts shall
terminate at the Transition Time. The Applicable Proxy may exercise the irrevocable proxy granted
to it hereunder at any time any Class B Stockholder fails to comply with the provisions of Section
1.1. The proxies and powers granted by each Class B Stockholder pursuant to this Section 1.2 are
coupled with an interest and are given to secure the performance of the obligations under this
Agreement. Such proxies and powers will be irrevocable until terminated as provided in this
Section 1.2 or the termination of this Agreement and will survive the death, incompetency and
disability of each Class B Stockholder who is an individual and the existence of each Class B
Stockholder that is a trust or other entity. It is understood and agreed that the Applicable Proxy
will not use such irrevocable proxy unless a Class B Stockholder fails to comply with Section 1.1
and that, to the extent the Applicable Proxy uses such irrevocable proxy, it will only vote such
Shares with respect to the matters specified in, and in accordance with the provisions of, Section
1.1.
1.3. In the event any action is taken by written consent pursuant to Section 1.1(a) or Section
1.1(b)(ii), the other Class B Stockholders or Excluded Trusts, as the case may be, shall be
promptly notified of such written consent and such written consent shall be filed with the minutes
of the proceedings of the Class B Stockholders or Excluded Trusts, as the case may be.
1.4. After the Transition Time, the Trustees of the Excluded Trusts will discuss their voting
intentions with the Dolan Family Committee in advance of any vote by the Class B Stockholders.

|
Section 2. The Dolan Family Committee. |
2.1. The Class B Stockholders hereby create a committee to exercise, to the extent and in the
manner provided herein, certain voting, management and control powers over the Class B Common Stock
(the Dolan Family Committee), which shall initially consist of eight members (each
individually, a Member, and collectively, the Members).
2.2. The Class B Stockholders hereby designate Charles F. Dolan, Helen A. Dolan, Kathleen M.
Dolan, Deborah A. Dolan-Sweeney, Marianne Dolan Weber, Patrick F. Dolan, Thomas C. Dolan and James
L. Dolan as the initial Members, each of whom hereby accepts such designation and hereby agrees to
act as a Member hereunder.
2.3. The Dolan Family Committee shall make all reasonable efforts to meet and discuss any
matter to be voted on by the Class B Stockholders prior to the taking of such vote.
2.4. Each Member, other than Charles F. Dolan and Helen A. Dolan, shall have the power to
designate, by an instrument in writing, a person or a series of persons to act as his or her
successor or consecutive successors as a Member; provided that (a) no designation by any
Member shall be inconsistent with designations made by a former Member who is a predecessor of such
Member and (b) except with the prior consent of the Dolan Family Committee, acting by
Majority Vote (excluding the vote of the Member wishing to make such designation), no person shall
be designated as a successor Member unless such person is (i) the designating Members
spouse, (ii) an Adult child of such designating Member, or (iii) in the case of a
designation by a Member that will take effect upon such Members death or Permanent Incapacity, an
Interim Member, but only if such designation of an Interim Member is conditioned on such Member not
being survived by a spouse or Adult child. Once a child of a Member who appointed an Interim
Member has become an Adult, such child shall have the right to remove and replace such Interim
Member. The power of a Member to designate successor Members shall include, without limitation,
the power to designate a temporary successor Member pending a descendant of such designating Member
becoming an Adult. Subject to a Members right to replace any such successor Member pursuant to
this Section 2.4, any such instrument of designation shall become effective according to its terms
and shall be revocable at any time prior to the qualification of the designee. In the event that
there shall be more than one instrument executed by the same person designating a successor Member,
then the instrument that shall bear the most recent date and shall be unrevoked shall govern. Each
former Member shall have the power, until his or her death or Permanent Incapacity, to replace any
successor Member of such Member (including, without limitation, a temporary successor Member) by
designating, in accordance with this Section 2.4, another person, which may be such former Member,
as his or her successor Member. For the avoidance of doubt, the voting rights of any Interim
Member on the Dolan Family Committee shall be in addition to any rights such person otherwise has a
Member.
4
2.5. Any Member acting hereunder may resign at any time and for any reason by a written notice
delivered to the other Members, to any former Member that is a predecessor of such Member and to
the designated successor Member of such Member, if any.
2.6. In the event of the death, resignation or other failure to act of a Member other than
Charles F. Dolan or Helen A. Dolan, or in the event of a court appointing a conservator, committee
or guardian for such Member, and in the event that any such vacancy shall not be filled pursuant to
the exercise of such Members, or one of such Members predecessors, power to designate his or her
successor Member, as provided for in Section 2.4, then the successor Member to such Member shall be
an individual designated by the trustees of the Applicable Members Trusts, acting unanimously;
provided that (a) the prior consent of the Dolan Family Committee, acting by
Majority Vote (excluding the vote of the relevant Member, if any), shall be required for the
appointment of any successor Member who could not have been appointed by such Member without such
consent pursuant to Section 2.4(b) and (b) if such Member is survived by a child, such
child shall have the right at any time after such child has become an Adult to remove and replace
any successor Member appointed pursuant to this sentence or, if no such successor Member has been
appointed, to appoint a successor Member. If at any time no successor Member to such Member shall
have been appointed pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2, then, unless and until such a
successor Member shall have been appointed, such Member shall have no successor Member and such
Member shall cease to be a Member and, unless and until such successor Member has been appointed,
the Dolan Family Committee shall consist of the remaining Members.
2.7. Notwithstanding Section 2.6, if any Sibling Member or successor Member is no longer
deemed to own any Shares, as determined in accordance with Section 3.1 of this Agreement, then such
Member shall cease to be a Member and thereafter the Dolan Family Committee shall consist of the
remaining Members.
2.8. Any rights hereunder of any Adult child of a Member who has died or become Permanently
Incapacitated shall be exercised collectively by all such Adult children, acting by majority vote.
Section 3. Voting and Powers of the Dolan Family Committee.
3.1. After the Transition Time, each Member shall be entitled to one vote on all matters to be
voted on by the Dolan Family Committee; provided that (i) if at any time a Members
ownership of Shares decreases to less than 50% of such Members Class B Baseline Share Ownership at
that time, such Member will not be entitled to a vote, and (ii) if at any time a Members
ownership of Shares increases, solely as a result of purchases of Shares from other Class B
Stockholders, to at least 50% more than such Members Class B Baseline Share Ownership at that
time, such Member will be entitled to one additional vote.
5
For purposes of this Section 3, each Member shall be deemed to own the Shares that are owned
by the Sibling Group of such Member or, if such Member is not a Sibling Member, such Members
predecessor who was a Sibling Member.
3.2. In the event of a tie vote of the Dolan Family Committee on a decision that requires a
Majority Vote, the Dolan Family Committee will act (including making recommendations to the
Trustees of the Excluded Trusts pursuant to Section 1.1(b)) by majority vote of the Shares then
deemed to be owned by the Members, determined as provided in Section 3.1.
3.3. After the Transition Time, in addition to the powers granted in this Agreement, the Dolan
Family Committee, acting by Majority Vote, shall have the power to:
(a) appoint an Applicable Proxy at such time as is specified in Section 1.2 of this
Agreement;
(b) bring, maintain and defend suits, whether in law or in equity, and to settle,
compromise, agree to arbitrate and be bound thereby, and to take any action believed by the
Dolan Family Committee to be necessary or advisable to exercise the powers and duties of
the Dolan Family Committee under this Agreement; and
(c) employ and pay reasonable compensation to such agents, advisors, accountants,
attorneys and investment counsel as may be necessary or desirable in carrying out the
duties and powers of the Dolan Family Committee.
Section 4. Meetings of the Dolan Family Committee.
4.1. A meeting of the Dolan Family Committee may be called by Dolan Approval, prior to the
Transition Time, and, thereafter, by any two Members, in each case by giving notice thereof to the
other Members in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.
4.2. Notice of any meeting of the Dolan Family Committee shall be deemed to be duly given to a
Member (i) if mailed to such Member at least 10 days before the day on which such meeting
is to be held, or (ii) if sent to such Member by facsimile or electronic mail not later
than three days before the day on which such meeting is to be held, or (iii) if delivered
to the Member personally or orally, by telephone or otherwise, not later than two days before the
day on which such meeting is to be held. Notice of any meeting of the Dolan Family Committee need
not be given to any Member if waived by the Member in writing, whether before or after the holding
of such meeting, or if such Member is present at such meeting. Any meeting of the Dolan Family
Committee shall be a legal meeting without any notice thereof having been given if each Member then
in office either is present at such meeting or has waived notice of such meeting.
6
4.3. At all meetings of the Dolan Family Committee, the presence of a majority of the Dolan
Family Committee, whether in person or by proxy (granted in accordance with Section 4.4), shall
constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in

of, including in connection with the death of such Class B Stockholder (Transfer), any
such Shares.
5.2. Transfer Restrictions. Notwithstanding any of the rights set forth in this
Section 5, no Class B Stockholder, other than Charles F. Dolan, Helen A. Dolan and any trust of
which either of them is a trustee, may Transfer any or all of its Shares other than to a Permitted

(a) if, as a result of such Transfer, there would be a Change in Control of AMC, such Class B
Stockholder shall have received the Dolan Approval, prior to the Transition Time, and, thereafter,
the approval of the Dolan Family Committee, acting by Supermajority Vote, for such Transfer;
(b) each share of Class B Common Stock being transferred is first converted into one share of
AMC Class A common stock (Class A Common Stock) prior to such Transfer, unless

thereafter, the approval of the Dolan Family Committee, acting by Two-Thirds Majority Vote
(excluding the vote of any Member requesting such Transfer); and
(c) such Class B Stockholder complies with all other applicable provisions of this Section 5.
5.3. Market Sale.
(a) In the event a Class B Stockholder (the Initial Market Sale Seller) proposes to
sell any Shares (the Initial Market Sale Shares) owned by it in a Market Sale, unless
such sale is an Exempted Sale by such Class B Stockholder, such Initial Market Sale Seller must
first provide notice (the Market Sale Notice) to the other Class B Stockholders (the
Market Sale Offerees), each of which shall have the right, exercisable within five
Business Days after receipt of the Market Sale Notice, to (i) purchase the Initial Market
Sale Shares owned by the Initial Market Sale Seller for a price per Share equal to 97% of the
average closing price of shares of Class A Common Stock over the four week period prior to the date
of the Market Sale Notice (the Market Sale Price), or (ii) participate in the
Market Sale with the Initial Market Sale Seller. For the avoidance of doubt, (x) any
Market Sale that
8
would result in a Change in Control shall require the approval described in Section 5.2(a) and
(y) any Market Sale Shares (as defined below) that are sold in a Market Sale shall first be
converted into shares of Class A Common Stock, and any Market Sale Shares that are sold to a Class
B Stockholder pursuant to this Section 5.3 shall not be converted into shares of Class A Common
Stock.
(b) If any Market Sale Offeree elects to participate in the Market Sale (a Market Sale
Participant and, together with the Initial Market Sale Seller, the Market Sale
Sellers) as provided in Section 5.3(a)(ii), such Market Sale Offeree shall provide notice (the
Second Market Sale Notice) to the other Class B Stockholders (other than the Initial
Market Sale Seller), each of which will have the right, exercisable within five Business Days after
receipt of the Second Market Sale Notice to purchase the Shares to be sold by such Market Sale
Participant in the Market Sale (Market Sale Tag Along Shares and, together with the
Initial Market Sale Shares, the Market Sale Shares) for the Market Sale Price.
(c) If the Market Sale Offerees have not elected to purchase all the Market Sale Shares within
the applicable election periods, each Market Sale Offeree that elected to purchase Market Sale
Shares shall be provided an additional three Business Days, after the expiration of such election
periods, to elect to purchase the remaining Market Sale Shares. If the offer to sell the Market
Sale Shares in a Market Sale is oversubscribed at the expiration of any election period, such
Market Sale Shares and the Market Sale Price in respect thereof will be allocated on a pro rata
basis among the Market Sale Offerees which have elected to purchase Market Sale Shares so that such
electing Market Sale Offeree will purchase a portion of the Market Sale Shares which bears the same
ratio to the Market Sale Shares as the Shares of each electing Market Sale Offeree bear to the
total number of Shares owned collectively by all such electing Market Sale Offerees, or as may
otherwise be agreed among such electing Market Sale Offerees, provided that no Market Sale Offeree
that elects to purchase Market Sale Shares will be required to purchase more Market Sale Shares
than the amount set forth in its election.
(d) If the Market Sale Offerees have elected to purchase less than all of the Market Sale
Shares, the Market Sale Shares to be sold to the Market Sale Offerees shall be apportioned as set
forth in this Section 5.3(d). Each Market Sale Offeree shall purchase from each Market Sale Seller
a number of Shares equal to the product of (i) the number of Shares such Market Sale
Offeree has elected to purchase and (ii) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the
number of Market Sale Shares that such Market Sale Seller offered for sale by (y) the total
number of Market Sale Shares that all of the Market Sale Sellers offered for sale, rounded down to
the nearest whole number, or as may otherwise be agreed among such Market Sale Offerees and the
sellers.
(e) In the event the number of Aggregated Market Sale Shares that Market Sale Offerees have
not elected to purchase pursuant to this Section 5.3 exceeds the Rule 144 Threshold on the
expiration date of the election periods under Section 5.3(c), the number of
9
Shares to be sold by the holders of such Aggregated Market Sale Shares shall be reduced so
that each such holder is entitled to sell in the Market Sale a number of Shares equal to the
product of (i) the Rule 144 Threshold and (ii) the fraction determined by dividing
(x) the total number of Aggregated Market Sale Shares owned by such holder as of such date
by (y) the total number of Aggregated Market Sale Shares, or as may otherwise be agreed
among such Market Sale Offerees.
(f) Subject to Section 5.3(g) and Section 5.3(h), the closing of the sale to the Market Sale
Offerees pursuant to a Market Sale will be held as soon as practicable after the expiration of all
of the applicable election periods under Section 5.3(c), and, in any event, no later than
(i) 30 days after such expiration, if the value of such Market Sale Shares is less than
$100 million, and (ii) 60 days after such expiration, if the value of such Market Shares is
more than $100 million (the Market Sale Scheduled Closing Date). Contemporaneously with
such closing, each Market Sale Seller will deliver a certificate or certificates representing the
Market Sale Shares, properly endorsed for transfer and with all necessary transfer or documentary
stamps, if any, affixed or if the Market Sale Shares are not certificated, the Market Sale Seller
will cause such Shares to be transferred by book-entry transfer or other similar means, and in each
case free and clear of all liens, restrictions or encumbrances against receipt from each purchasing
Market Sale Offeree of the Market Sale Price or allocable portion thereof in cash or by certified
or bank cashiers check or wire or interbank transfer of funds.
(g) The obligation of a Market Sale Seller and a purchasing Market Sale Offeree to proceed
with the closing on the Market Sale Scheduled Closing Date and the obligation to consummate a sale
prior to the Market Sale Expiration Date will be conditioned upon and the Market Sale Scheduled
Closing Date or the Market Sale Expiration Date, as applicable, will be extended to a date which is
five Business Days following the last to occur of (i) the expiration (or earlier
termination) of any applicable waiting period and, if extended, the extended waiting period under
the HSR Act, and (ii) the receipt of all governmental and regulatory consents, approvals or
waivers that may be required in connection with the purchase and sale of the Market Sale Shares.
Each Market Sale Seller and the purchasing Market Sale Offerees will use all reasonable efforts to
cooperate with each other or with a third party to promptly make all filings, give all notices and
secure all consents, approvals and waivers that may be required in connection with the purchase and
sale of the Market Shares.
(h) Each Market Sale Seller will have the right (subject to Section 5.3(e)) beginning with the
expiration of the last election period under Section 5.3(c) and continuing until 90 days thereafter
or, if later, the last date for the closing of such purchase under Section 5.3(f) or Section 5.3(g)
(such later date being the Market Sale Expiration Date), as applicable, to sell all
Market Sale Shares that the Market Sale Offerees do not elect to purchase in a Market Sale. If
such Market Sale Shares are not sold prior to the Market Sale Expiration Date, all rights to sell
such Market Sale Shares pursuant to such Market Sale,
10
without making another offer to the Market Sale Offerees pursuant to this Section 5.3, will
terminate and the provisions of this Section 5.3 will continue to apply to any proposed Market Sale
(other than an Exempted Sale) in the future.
5.4. Right of First Refusal.
(a) Prior to any proposed sale of Shares otherwise permitted pursuant to this Section 5, other
than to a Permitted Holder or in a Market Sale, the Class B Stockholder proposing to sell such
Shares (the ROFR Transferor) shall obtain a bona fide, non-collusive, binding
arms-length written offer, subject only to customary conditions, with respect to the proposed sale
(a Third Party Offer) from a third party that is not an affiliate of such ROFR Transferor
(the Third Party), which the ROFR Transferor desires to accept. The Third Party Offer
shall not be subject to unstated conditions or contingencies or be part of a larger transaction
such that the price for the Shares proposed to be transferred in the Third Party Offer (the
Offered Shares) does not accurately reflect the Fair Market Value of such Offered Shares,
and the Third Party Offer shall contain a description of all of the consideration, material terms
and conditions for the proposed sale. The ROFR Transferor shall send a copy of the Third Party
Offer, which shall include the identity of the Third Party, to each of the Class B Stockholders
(the Offerees), together with a written offer to sell the Offered Shares to the Offerees
on the same terms and conditions, including the Third Party Price, as the Third Party Offer. For
the avoidance of doubt, any Shares to be transferred to a Third Party pursuant to a Third Party
Offer shall first be converted into shares of Class A Common Stock, and any Shares transferred to
any Class B Stockholder upon the exercise of its rights in this Section 5.4 shall not be converted
to shares of Class A Common Stock.
(b) Each Offeree will have 10 Business Days from the receipt of such written offer from the
ROFR Transferor to give written notice to the ROFR Transferor of its, his or her respective
election to purchase the Offered Shares. The ROFR Transferor will notify each Offeree as to the
number of Offered Shares that other Class B Stockholders did not elect to purchase pursuant to this
Section 5 within two Business Days following such election (the Offeree Notice).
(c) If the Offerees have not elected to purchase all the Offered Shares within the applicable
election period, each Offeree that has so elected to purchase Offered Shares shall be provided an
additional three Business Days from the expiration of such election period to elect to purchase the
remaining Offered Shares. If the offer to sell the Offered Shares is oversubscribed at the
expiration of any election period, such Offered Shares and the Third Party Price in respect thereof
will be allocated on a pro rata basis among the Offerees which have elected to purchase Offered
Shares so that each such electing Offeree will receive a portion of the Offered Shares which bears
the same ratio to the Offered Shares as the Shares of such electing Offeree bear to the total
number of Shares owned collectively by all such electing Offerees, or as may otherwise be agreed
among such electing
11
Offerees, provided that no Offeree that elects to purchase Offered Shares will be required to
purchase more Offered Shares than the amount set forth in its election.
(d) Subject to Section 5.4(e) and Section 5.4(f), the closing of the sale to the Offerees
pursuant to an Offering will be held as soon as practicable after the expiration of all of the
election periods under Section 5.4(c), and, in any event, no later than (i) 30 days after
such expiration, if the value of such Offered Shares is less than $100 million, and (ii) 60
days after such expiration, if the value of such Offered Shares is more than $100 million (the
Scheduled Closing Date). Contemporaneously with such closing, the ROFR Transferor will
deliver a certificate or certificates representing the Offered Shares, properly endorsed for
transfer and with all necessary transfer or documentary stamps, if any, affixed, or if the Offered
Shares are not certificated, the ROFR Transferor will cause such Shares to be transferred by
book-entry transfer or other similar means, in each case, free and clear of all liens, restrictions
or encumbrances against receipt from each purchasing Offeree of the Third Party Price or allocable
portion thereof in cash or by certified or bank cashiers check or wire or interbank transfer of
funds.
(e) The obligation of a ROFR Transferor and a purchasing Offeree to proceed with the closing
on the Scheduled Closing Date and the obligation of a ROFR Transferor and a Third Party to
consummate a sale prior to the Expiration Date will be conditioned upon and the Scheduled Closing
Date or the Expiration Date, as applicable, will be extended to a date which is five Business Days
following the last to occur of (i) the expiration (or earlier termination) of any
applicable waiting period and, if extended, the extended waiting period under the HSR Act, and
(ii) the receipt of all governmental and regulatory consents, approvals or waivers that may
be required in connection with the purchase and sale of the Offered Shares. The ROFR Transferor
and the purchasing Offerees will use all reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other or with a
third party to promptly make all filings, give all notices and secure all consents, approvals and
waivers that may be required in connection with the purchase and sale of the Offered Shares.
(f) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.4(a) through (e), elections to purchase made
by the Offerees will not be binding on the ROFR Transferor if (x) the Offerees have not
elected, as provided in Section 5.4(c), to purchase all of the Offered Shares or (y) the
Offerees have not closed on the purchase of all the Offered Shares by the Scheduled Closing Date
(as such Scheduled Closing Date may be extended pursuant to Section 5.4(e)) in accordance with the
terms hereof. In such event, no sales pursuant to such elections will be required to be made by
the ROFR Transferor and the ROFR Transferor will have the right for a period of 120 days after the
expiration of the last election period in Section 5.4(c) or, if later, the last date for the
closing of such purchase under Section 5.4(d) or Section 5.4(e) (such later date being the
Expiration Date), as appropriate, to sell all but not less than all of the Offered
Shares, but only to the Third Party for a price (including any non-cash consideration in the Third
Party Offer) and on terms no more favorable to the Third Party than the Third Party Price and the
terms of the Third Party Offer. If such Offered
12
Shares are not sold prior to the Expiration Date, all rights to sell such Offered Shares
pursuant to such Third Party Offer, without making another offer to the Offerees pursuant to this
Section 5.4, will terminate and the provisions of this Section 5.4 will continue to apply to any
proposed transfer in the future.
5.5. Tag-Along Rights.
(a) Subject to Section 5.4, if one or more Class B Stockholders (the Transferring
Stockholders) desire to sell any or all of their Shares, other than to a Permitted Holder or
in a Market Sale, and such sale would result in a Change of Control (and has been approved as
provided in Section 5.2(a)), each Class B Stockholder shall have the right to participate on the
same terms and conditions and for the same per share consideration as the Transferring Stockholders
in the sale in the manner set forth in this Section 5.5. If Class B Stockholders do not elect to
purchase such Shares pursuant to Section 5.4, the Transferring Stockholders shall, prior to such
sale, deliver to the other Class B Stockholders prompt written notice (the Transfer
Notice), which notice shall state (i) the name of the proposed transferee,
(ii) the number of Shares proposed to be transferred (the Transferred Shares) and
the percentage (the Tag Percentage) that such number of Shares constitutes of the total
number of Shares owned by such Transferring Stockholders, (iii) the proposed purchase price
therefore, including a description of any non-cash consideration sufficiently detailed to permit
the determination of the Fair Market Value thereof, and (iv) the other material terms and
conditions of the proposed sale, including the proposed sale date (which date may not be less than
30 days after delivery of the Transfer Notice). Such notice shall be accompanied by a written
offer from the proposed transferee to purchase the Transferred Shares, which offer may be
conditioned upon the consummation of the sale by the Transferring Stockholders, or the most recent
drafts of the purchase and sale documentation between the Transferring Stockholders and the
transferee which shall make provision for the participation of the other Class B Stockholders in
such sale consistent with this Section 5.5.
(b) Each Class B Stockholder may elect to participate in the proposed sale to the proposed
transferee identified in the Transfer Notice by giving written notice to the Transferring
Stockholders within the 10 Business Day period after the delivery of the Transfer Notice (any Class
B Stockholder that so elects, a Tag-Along Participant), which notice shall state that
such Tag-Along Participant elects to exercise its rights of tag-along under this Section 5.5 and
shall state the maximum number of Shares sought to be transferred (which number may not exceed the
product of (i) all such Shares owned by such Tag-Along Participant, multiplied by
(ii) the Tag Percentage). Each Class B Stockholder shall be deemed to have waived its
right of tag-along with respect to the Transferred Shares hereunder if it fails to give notice
within the prescribed time period. The proposed transferee of Transferred Shares will not be
obligated to purchase a number of Shares exceeding that set forth in the Transfer Notice, and in
the event such transferee elects to purchase less than all of the additional Shares sought to be
transferred by the Tag-Along Participants, the number of Shares to be transferred by the
Transferring Stockholders and each such Tag-Along
13
Participant shall be reduced so that each such Class B Stockholder is entitled to sell its Pro
Rata Portion of the number of Shares the proposed transferee elects to purchase (which in no event
may be less than the number of Transferred Shares set forth in the Transfer Notice). For purposes
of this Section 5.5, on the applicable sale date, Pro Rata Portion means, with respect to
any Class B Stockholder, the number of Shares equal to the product of (x) the total number
Shares that the proposed transferee elects to purchase and (y) the quotient determined by
dividing (A) the total number of Shares owned by such Class B Stockholder as of such date
by (B) the number of such Shares owned in the aggregate by the Transferring Stockholders
and all Tag-Along Participants as of such date.
(c) Each Tag-Along Participant shall receive consideration in the same form and per Share
amount after deduction of such Tag-Along Participants proportionate share of the related expenses.
Each Tag-Along Participant shall agree to make or agree to the same customary representations,
covenants, indemnities and agreements as the Transferring Stockholders so long as they are made
severally and not jointly and, among any Persons liable for a particular liability, such liability
is borne by such Persons on a pro rata basis based the consideration contemplated by the related
definitive agreement(s) to be received by such Person (with respect to each Class B Stockholder
participating in a sale pursuant to this Section 5.5, the Anticipated Proceeds);
provided that (i) any general indemnity given by the Transferring Stockholders or
Tag-Along Participants for liabilities not specific to one or more of them shall be apportioned
among them in accordance with their respective Anticipated Proceeds and with respect to each
Tag-Along Participant shall not exceed such Tag-Along Participants Anticipated Proceeds, and
(ii) any representation relating specifically to a Class B Stockholder participating in a
sale pursuant to this Section 5.5 and/or its ownership of Shares to be transferred shall be made
only by that Class B Stockholder.
(d) The fees and expenses incurred in connection with a sale under this Section 5.5 and for
the benefit of all Class B Stockholders participating in a sale pursuant to this Section 5.5 (it
being understood that costs incurred by or on behalf of a Class B Stockholder for his, her or its
sole benefit will not be considered to be for the benefit of all Class B Stockholders), to the
extent not paid or reimbursed by the transferee or acquiring Person, shall be shared by all the
Class B Stockholders participating in a sale pursuant to this Section 5.5 on a pro rata basis,
based on each such Class B Stockholders Anticipated Proceeds. The proposed sale date may be
extended beyond the date described in the Transfer Notice to the extent necessary to obtain
required approvals of any Governmental Body and other required approvals.
(e) Each Tag-Along Participant shall deliver to the transferee at the closing of the sale of
the Transferred Shares to the transferee such Transferred Shares by book-entry transfer or other
similar means, if such Transferred Shares are not certificated, or, if such Transferred Shares are
certificated, certificates representing the Transferred Shares to be transferred by such Tag-Along
Participant, duly endorsed for transfer or accompanied by
14
stock powers duly executed, in either case executed in blank or in favor of the applicable
purchaser against payment of the aggregate purchase price therefor by wire transfer of immediately
available funds.
(f) If the Transferring Stockholders sell or otherwise Transfer to the transferee any of their
Shares in breach of this Section 5.5, then each other Class B Stockholder shall have the right to
sell to the Transferring Stockholders, and the Transferring Stockholders undertake to purchase from
each other Class B Stockholder, the number of Shares that such Class B Stockholder would have had
the right to sell to the transferee pursuant to this Section 5.5, for a per Share amount and form
of consideration and upon the terms and conditions on which the transferee bought such Shares from
the Transferring Stockholders, but without any indemnity being granted by any other Class B
Stockholder to the Transferring Stockholders; provided that nothing contained in this
Section 5.5(f) shall preclude any Class B Stockholder from seeking alternative remedies against any
of the Transferring Stockholders as a result of its breach of this Section 5.5.
5.6. Drag-Along Rights.
(a) Subject to Section 5.4, if one or more Class B Stockholders (the Drag-Along
Sellers) propose to sell, other than to a Permitted Holder or in a Market Sale, all of their
Shares, and such sale would result in a Change of Control (and has been approved as provided in
Section 5.2(a)), then, if requested by the Drag-Along Sellers, each other Class B Stockholder
(each, a Selling Stockholder) shall be required to sell all of the Shares held by it in
such transaction (the Drag Transaction).
(b) The Drag-Along Sellers shall provide written notice (the Drag-Along Notice) to
each Selling Stockholder of any proposed Drag Transaction as soon as practicable following their
compliance with Sections 5.2(a) and 5.4 and their exercise of the rights provided in Section
5.6(a). The Drag Along Notice shall set forth the consideration to be paid by the purchaser for
the Shares, the identity of the purchaser and the material terms of the Drag Transaction.
(c) The consideration to be received by a Selling Stockholder shall be the same form and
amount of consideration per Share to be received by the Drag-Along Sellers, and, subject to Section
5.6(d), the terms and conditions of such sale shall be the same as those upon which the Drag-Along
Sellers sell their Shares.
(d) In connection with the Drag Transaction, each Selling Stockholder will agree to make or
agree to the same customary representations, covenants, indemnities and agreements as the
Drag-Along Sellers so long as they are made severally and not jointly and, among any Persons liable
for a particular liability, such liability is borne by such Persons on a pro rata basis based on
the consideration received by each such Person; provided that (i) any general
indemnity given by the Drag-Along Sellers or Selling Stockholders not
15
specific to any of them shall be shared by each of the Drag-Along Sellers and Selling Stockholders, in
the case of the Selling Stockholders on a several basis according to the consideration received by
such Selling Stockholder and not in excess of such Selling Stockholders net proceeds from the
sale, (ii) any representation relating specifically to a Selling Stockholder and/or its
Shares shall be made only by that Selling Stockholder, and (iii) in no event shall any
Class B Stockholder be obligated to agree to any non-competition covenant or other similar

the benefit of all Class B Stockholders (it being understood that costs incurred by or on behalf of
a Class B Stockholder for his, her or its sole benefit will not be considered to be for the benefit
of all Class B Stockholders), to the extent not paid or reimbursed by the transferee or acquiring
Person, shall be borne by the Drag-Along Sellers, unless the closing of such sale occurs, in which
case they shall be shared by all the Class B Stockholders on a pro rata basis, based on the
consideration received by each Class B Stockholder in respect of its Shares.
(f) Each Selling Stockholder shall deliver to the applicable transferee, upon the consummation
of the Drag Transaction, the Shares to be transferred by such Selling Stockholder by book-entry
transfer or other similar means, if such Shares are not certificated, or, if such Shares are
certificated, certificates representing such Shares duly endorsed for transfer or accompanied by
stock powers duly executed, in either case executed in blank or in favor of the applicable
transferee against payment of the aggregate purchase price therefor by wire transfer of immediately
available funds.
5.7. Other Restrictions.

Exhibit 2
REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT
BY AND AMONG
AMC NETWORKS INC.
AND
THE DOLAN FAMILY AFFILIATES
REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT
Registration Rights Agreement (this Agreement) dated as of June 9, 2011 (but
effective as provided in Section 9(k)), by and among AMC Networks Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
Company), the parties set forth on Annex A to this Agreement (the Dolan Family
Affiliates) and the Qualifying Creditors, if any, who have agreed in writing to become bound
by this Agreement. Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Annex B hereto.
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, as of the date of this Agreement, the Dolan Family Affiliates own shares of
Cablevision NY Group Class B Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (Cablevision Class B
Common Stock), and shares of Cablevision NY Group Class A Common Stock, par value $.01 per
share (Cablevision Class A Common Stock);
WHEREAS, the Dolan Family Affiliates are party to a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of
January 13, 2010, by and among Cablevision and the Dolan Family Affiliates, and the Dolan Family
Affiliates have certain registration rights under that agreement with respect to shares of
Cablevision Class A Common Stock;
WHEREAS, Cablevision intends to distribute (the Distribution) to the holders of
Cablevision Class A Common Stock all of the outstanding shares of the Companys Class A Common
Stock, $.01 par value (the Class A Common Stock), and to the holders of Cablevision Class
B Common Stock all of the outstanding shares of the Companys Class B Common Stock, $.01 par value
(the Class B Common Stock); and
WHEREAS, the Company and the Dolan Family Affiliates wish to provide for benefits and
restrictions applicable to the Shares owned by the Dolan Family Holders following the Distribution,
all as provided herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements contained herein,
the parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Demand Registration by the Dolan Family Parties of the Shares.
(a) Demand Registration. One or more of the Dolan Family Parties may request in
writing that the Company file a registration statement on an appropriate form for the general
registration of securities under the Securities Act, and include therein such number of the Shares
owned by such Dolan Family Party as such person may specify in its written request;
provided, however, that (i) the Company shall not be required to file a
registration statement pursuant to this Section 1 if (x) the Shares requested to be so
registered do not, in the case of a Dolan Family Holder, together with any Shares timely requested
to be registered by other Dolan Family Holders and Other Holders pursuant to the third-to-last
sentence of this Section 1(a), have an aggregate Market Price exceeding the Rule 144 Threshold as
of the Trading Day immediately preceding the expiration of the applicable Notice Period under such
sentence or, in the case of a Qualifying Creditor, do not have an aggregate Market Price exceeding
the Rule 144 Threshold as of the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the request
for registration is received by the Company, or (y) the Company delivers to each Dolan
Family Party requesting registration under this Section 1 an opinion of counsel to the Company
(such opinion and such counsel to be reasonably acceptable to each such Dolan Family Party, it
being agreed that the Companys regular outside securities counsel
-2-
shall be deemed to be reasonably acceptable counsel for this purpose) to the effect that the
Shares proposed to be registered by such person may be offered and sold by such person to the
public in the United States together with the Shares requested to be registered by all other Dolan
Family Parties and Other Holders (I) without registration pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act and (II) within the volume limitations
under Rule 144(e) promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule or regulation)
whether or not such volume limitations are then applicable, (ii) subject to the next
sentence, after the death of both Dolan and his spouse, the Dolan Family Holders shall in the
aggregate have the right on only four occasions to require the Company to file a registration
statement pursuant to this Section 1, and (iii) subject to the next sentence, a Qualifying
Creditor may require registration only following the exercise of its remedies under a security
agreement with a Dolan Family Holder and for the purpose of Transferring Shares pursuant thereto
and each Qualifying Creditor may only require one registration hereunder. The total number of
demand registrations under clauses (ii) and (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence and under
the corresponding provisions of the Dolan Children Trusts Registration Rights Agreement shall not
exceed four. All requests made pursuant to this paragraph shall specify the aggregate number of
Shares to be registered and the intended methods of disposition thereof, which methods may include
an underwritten public offering. Upon receipt of a written request for registration from a Dolan
Family Holder pursuant to the preceding sentences, the Company shall promptly give written notice
of the proposed registration to each such other Dolan Family Holder and each Other Holder and
provide each such other holder with the opportunity to join in such request by written notice to
the Company specifying
-3-
the aggregate number of Shares to be registered by such holder within 20 days from the date of
the Companys written notice (such period is referred to as the Notice Period). Subject
to Section 1(c) of this Agreement, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that
each registration statement required to be filed pursuant to this Section 1 shall be filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) as promptly as reasonably
practicable, but no later than 45 days after receipt of such request by the Company, and the
Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared
effective by the Commission as promptly thereafter as practicable; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be required to maintain such effectiveness for more
than 90 days. Notwithstanding the Companys rights to effect a Suspension of Filing or Suspension
of Effectiveness in Section 1(c), the Dolan Family Parties that made the registration request under
this Section 1(a) shall have the right to withdraw any such request, and such withdrawn request
shall not count as a demand registration under clause (ii) or (iii) of this Section 1(a) or the
corresponding provisions under the Dolan Children Trusts Registration Rights Agreement, if
(1) the registration statement required to be filed pursuant to this Section 1 is not filed
with the Commission by the date that is 45 days after such request is received by the Company and
has not at the time of such withdrawal been filed with the Commission, or is not declared effective
by the date that is 90 days after the date such registration statement is filed with the Commission
and has not at the time of such withdrawal been declared effective, and (2) in either case,
such Dolan Family Parties notify the Company of the withdrawal of such request no later than 10
days after such 45th or 90th day, as the case may be.
-4-
(b) Concurrent Primary Offering. Anything in this Section 1 to the contrary
notwithstanding, if the Company at the time of receipt of a request for registration pursuant to
this Section 1 has a bona fide intent and plan to file a registration statement (other than on Form
S-4 or S-8 or any successor forms) covering a primary offering by the Company of its Common Equity
Securities, the Company, by notice to the applicable Dolan Family Parties, may delay the filing
(but not the preparation) of the requested registration statement for a period ending on the
earlier of (i) 60 days after the closing of such offering or (ii) 120 days after
receipt of the request for registration; and, provided, further, if the Company
either abandons its plan to file such registration statement or does not file the same within 75
days after receipt of such request, the Company shall promptly thereafter file the requested
registration statement. The Company may not, pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, delay
the filing of a requested registration statement more than once during any two-year period.
(c) Suspension of Offering. Upon notice by the Company to any Dolan Family Party
which has requested registration under this Section 1 that a negotiation or consummation of a
transaction by the Company or any of its subsidiaries is pending or an event has occurred, which
negotiation, consummation or event would require disclosure in the registration statement for the
requested registration and such disclosure would, in the good faith judgment of the board of
directors of the Company, be materially adverse to the business interests of the Company, and the
nondisclosure of which in the registration statement would reasonably be expected to cause the
registration statement to fail to comply with applicable disclosure requirements (a
Materiality Notice), the Company may delay the filing (but not the preparation) of such
registration
-5-
statement (a Suspension of Filing). Upon the delivery of a Materiality Notice by
the Company pursuant to the preceding sentence at any time when a registration statement has been
filed but not declared effective, the Company may delay seeking the effectiveness of such
registration statement (a Suspension of Effectiveness), and each Dolan Family Party named
therein shall immediately discontinue any offers of Shares under such registration statement until
such Dolan Family Party receives copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus that corrects such
misstatement or omission, or until it is advised in writing by the Company that offers under such
registration statement may be resumed and has received copies of any additional or supplemental
filings which are incorporated by reference in such registration statement. Upon the delivery of a
Materiality Notice by the Company pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 1(c) at any time
when a registration statement has been filed and declared effective, each Dolan Family Party named
therein shall immediately discontinue offers and sales of Shares under such registration statement
until such Dolan Family Party receives copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus that corrects
such misstatement or omission and notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective, or
until it is advised in writing by the Company that offers under such registration statement may be
resumed and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings which are incorporated by
reference in the registration statement (a Suspension of Offering; a Suspension of
Filing, a Suspension of Effectiveness and a Suspension of Offering are collectively referred to
herein as, Suspensions). If so directed by the Company, each Dolan Family Party will
deliver to the Company all copies (other than permanent file copies then in such Dolan Family
Partys possession) of any prospectus covering Shares in the
-6-
possession of such Dolan Family Party or its agents current at the time of receipt of any
Materiality Notice. In any 12-month period, the aggregate time of all Suspensions shall not,
without the consent of a majority of the Dolan Family Holders (by number of Shares held), which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, exceed 180 days. If interrupted by a Suspension of
Offering, any 90-day period in respect of which the Company is required to maintain the
effectiveness of a registration statement pursuant to Section 1(a) of this Agreement shall be
extended by the number of days during which the Suspension of Offering was in effect. In the event
of any Suspension of Offering of more than 30 days in duration prior to which the Dolan Family
Parties have sold less than 75% of the Shares to be sold in such offering, the Dolan Family Parties
shall be entitled to withdraw such registration prior to the later of (i) the end of the
Suspension of Offering and (ii) three business days after the Company has provided the
Dolan Family Parties written notice of the anticipated date on which the Suspension of Offering
will end, and, if such registration is withdrawn, the related demand for registration shall not
count for the purposes of the limitations set forth under clauses (ii) and (iii) of Section 1(a) or
the comparable provisions under the Dolan Trusts Registration Rights Agreement.
(d) Market Price; Trading Day. For purposes of this Section 1:
(i) Market Price of a share of Class A Common Stock shall mean the weighted
average of the closing prices for the Class A Common Stock on each Trading Day (as defined
below) in the 30-day period ending on the day prior to the date of determination as
reported in the consolidated transaction reporting system of the NASDAQ Global Market or on
the comparable reporting
-7-
system of such other exchange or trading system that is at the time the principal
market for the Class A Common Stock.
(ii) Trading Day shall mean any day on which trading takes place on the
NASDAQ Global Market or such other exchange or trading system that is at the time the
principal market for the Class A Common Stock.
2. Coordination of PiggyBack Registration Rights.
Each of the Dolan Family Parties hereby acknowledges and consents to the grant by the Company
to the Children Trust Holders (as defined in the Dolan Children Trusts Registration Rights
Agreement and hereinafter referred to in this Agreement as the Other Holders), in the
Dolan Children Trusts Registration Rights Agreement, of the right of the Other Holders to include
certain of their respective shares of Class A Common Stock in certain registration statements filed
pursuant hereto. Each of the Dolan Family Parties further acknowledges and agrees that if any
offering hereunder is to be underwritten and if the managing underwriter or underwriters of such
offering informs such person in writing that the number of shares of Class A Common Stock which the
Dolan Family Parties, and the Other Holders, as the case may be, intend to include in such offering
is sufficiently large so as to affect the offering price of such offering materially and adversely,
then the respective number of shares of Class A Common Stock to be offered for the account of each
Dolan Family Party and each Other Holder, as the case may be, who is participating in such offering
shall be reduced pro rata to the extent necessary to reduce the total number of shares of Class A
Common Stock to be included in such offering to the number recommended by such managing
underwriter. Except for such piggyback registration rights granted to Other Holders, and to any
-8-
transferee of the shares of Class A Common Stock owned by an Other Holder which may be
registered pursuant to the Dolan Children Trusts Registration Rights Agreement, neither the Company
nor any of its security holders shall have the right to include any of the Companys securities in
any registration statement filed pursuant hereto.
3. Piggyback Registration of the Shares.
If the Company proposes to file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect
to an offering (a) by an Other Holder of its holdings of Class A Common Stock pursuant to
the Dolan Children Trusts Registration Rights Agreement, (b) by any other holder of any
Common Equity Securities or (c) by the Company for its own account of any Common Equity
Securities (other than a registration statement on Form S-4 or S-8, or any successor form or a form
filed in connection with an exchange offer or an offering of securities solely to the existing
stockholders of the Company), the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to each
of the Dolan Family Holders at least 20 days before the anticipated filing date which shall state
whether such registration will be in connection with an underwritten offering and offer such Dolan
Family Holders the opportunity to include in such registration statement such number of the Shares
as such Dolan Family Holder may request not later than three days prior to the anticipated filing
date. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the managing underwriter or
underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering to permit such Dolan Family Holders to be included
in the registration for such offering and to include such Shares in such offering on the same terms
and conditions as the Common Equity Securities included in such offering. If such proposed
offering is to be underwritten, then upon request by the managing underwriter or underwriters given
to such Dolan Family
-9-
Holders prior to the effective date of the offering, any Dolan Family Holder electing to have
Shares included in the registration statement shall either enter into underwriting agreements with
customary terms and conditions for a secondary offering with such underwriter or underwriters
providing for the inclusion of such number of the Shares owned by such Dolan Family Holder in such
offering on such terms and conditions or, if such Dolan Family Holder shall refuse to enter into
any such agreement, the Company shall have the right to exclude from such registration all (but not
less than all) of the Shares of such Dolan Family Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
(x) in no event will any Dolan Family Holder be required in such underwriting agreement (or
in any other agreement in connection with such offering) to (i) make any representations or
warranties to or agreements with the underwriters other than representations, warranties or
agreements customarily made by selling securityholders in underwritten secondary offerings,
(ii) make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company other than
representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Dolan Family Holder, the ownership of such
Dolan Family Holders Common Equity Securities, the authorization, validity and binding effect of
transaction documents executed by such Dolan Family Holder in connection with such registration and
such Dolan Family Holders intended method or methods of distribution and any other representation
required by law; provided that no Dolan Family Holder shall be required to make any
representation or warranty to any person covered by the indemnity in Section 7(b) other than on a
several (and not joint) basis, or (iii) furnish any indemnity to any person which is
broader than the indemnity customarily furnished by selling security holders in underwritten
offerings; provided that no Dolan Family Holder shall be required to furnish
-10-
any indemnity broader than the indemnity furnished by such Dolan Family Holder in Section 7(b)
to any person covered by the indemnity in Section 7(b), and (y) if the managing underwriter
or underwriters of such offering informs the Dolan Family Holders in writing that the number of
Shares which the Dolan Family Holders and the number of Shares which the Other Holders intend to
include in such offering is sufficiently large so as to affect materially and adversely the success
of such offering, the Shares to be offered for the account of the Dolan Family Holders and the
Other Holders shall first be reduced pro rata to the extent necessary to reduce the total number of
shares of Class A Common Stock to be included in such offering to the number recommended by such
managing underwriter. In giving effect to the foregoing reduction, the respective number of the
Shares to be offered for the account of Dolan Family Holders shall be reduced pro rata.
4. Holdback Agreements.
(a) Restrictions on Public Sale by Dolan Family Parties. To the extent not
inconsistent with applicable law, each Dolan Family Party agrees not to offer publicly or effect
any public sale or distribution of Common Equity Securities, including a sale pursuant to Rule 144
under the Securities Act (or any successor rule or regulation), during the seven days prior to, and
during the 90-day period beginning on, the effective date of any registration statement filed by
the Company pursuant to which any such shares or securities are being registered (except as part of
such registration), if and to the extent requested by the Company in the case of a non-underwritten
public offering or if and to the extent requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters in
the case of an underwritten public offering.
-11-
(b) Restrictions on Public Sale by the Company and Others. The Company agrees
(i) that during the seven days prior to, and during the 90-day period beginning on, the
effective date of any registration statement filed at the request of a Dolan Family Party pursuant
hereto, the Company will not offer publicly or effect any public sale or distribution of Common
Equity Securities (other than any such sale or distribution of such securities in connection with
any merger or consolidation of the Company or any subsidiary with, or the acquisition by the
Company or a subsidiary of the capital stock or substantially all of the assets of, any other
person or any offer or sale of such securities pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-8),
and (ii) that any agreement entered into after the date of this Agreement pursuant to which
the Company issues or agrees to issue any privately placed Common Equity Securities shall contain a
provision under which holders of such securities agree not to effect any public sale or
distribution of any such securities during the periods described in (i) above, in each case
including a sale pursuant to Rule 144 (or any successor rule or regulation) under the Securities
Act (except as part of any such registration, if permitted).
5. Registration Procedures.
In connection with any registration of the Shares owned by a Dolan Family Party contemplated
hereby, the Company will as expeditiously as possible:
(a) Furnish to such Dolan Family Party, prior to filing a registration statement, copies of
such registration statement as proposed to be filed, and thereafter such number of copies of such
registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits
thereto), the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary
prospectus) and such other documents
-12-
in such quantities as such Dolan Family Party may reasonably request from time to time in
order to facilitate the disposition of the Shares.
(b) Use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify the Shares being registered as
contemplated hereby (the Registered Class A) under such other securities or blue sky laws
of such jurisdictions as such Dolan Family Party reasonably requests and do any and all other acts
and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such Dolan Family Party to
consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registered Class A; provided that
the Company will not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any
jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this paragraph (b),
(ii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (iii) consent to
general service of process in any such jurisdiction.
(c) Use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registered Class A to be registered with or
approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the
business and operations of the Company to enable such Dolan Family Party to consummate the
disposition of such Registered Class A.
(d) Notify such Dolan Family Party at any time, (i) of any request by the Commission
or any other federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to a
registration statement or related prospectus or for additional information, (ii) of the
issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a registration
statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, (iii) of the receipt by
the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption
from qualification of any of the Registered Class A for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation
or threatening of any proceeding for
-13-
such purpose, and (iv) when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered
under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus
included in such registration statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading, and, except as otherwise provided in Section 1(c) hereof, the Company will, as
expeditiously as practicable, prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as
thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registered Class A, such prospectus will not contain
an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.
(e) Use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the
effectiveness of a registration statement, or the lifting of any suspension of the qualification
(or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registered Class A for sale in any jurisdiction at
the earliest date reasonably practical.
(f) Cause all such Registered Class A to be listed on the NASDAQ Global Market or on any other
securities exchange on which the Class A Common Stock is then listed, provided that the
applicable listing requirements are satisfied.
(g) Enter into customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form)
and take such other actions as are reasonably requested by the relevant Dolan Family Party in order
to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Registered Class A.
(h) Make available for inspection by such Dolan Family Party, any underwriter participating in
any disposition pursuant to such registration statement, and
-14-
any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by such Dolan Family Party or such
underwriter (collectively, the Inspectors), all financial and other records, pertinent
corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the Records) as shall be
reasonably necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility, and cause the
officers, directors and employees of the Company to supply all information reasonably requested by
any such Inspector in connection with such registration statement. Records which the Company
determines, in good faith, to be confidential and which it notifies the Inspectors are confidential
shall not be disclosed by the Inspectors unless (i) the disclosure of such Records is
necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in the registration statement or
(ii) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a
court of competent jurisdiction. Any Dolan Family Party shall use reasonable best efforts, prior
to any disclosure by any such Inspector under clause (i) of the preceding sentence, to inform the
Company that such disclosure is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in the
registration statement. Each Dolan Family Party further agrees that it will, upon learning that
disclosure of Records is sought in a court of competent jurisdiction, give notice to the Company
and allow the Company, at the expense of the Company, to undertake appropriate action to prevent
disclosure of the Records deemed confidential.
(i) In the event such sale is pursuant to an underwritten offering, use its reasonable best
efforts to (i) obtain a comfort letter from the independent public accountants for the
Company in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by such letters
as any Dolan Family Party reasonably requests and (ii) ensure that (A) the
representations, warranties and covenants contained in the
-15-
applicable underwriting agreement shall expressly be for the benefit of any Dolan Family Party
participating in such sale, (B) the conditions to closing in said underwriting agreement
shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Dolan Family Party and (C) to the extent
customary, all comfort letters and opinions of counsel contemplated by said underwriting agreements
are delivered to such Dolan Family Party on the closing date of the offering.
(j) Otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and
regulations of the Commission and have the registration statement declared effective as soon as
practicable after filing.
The Company may require any Dolan Family Party to furnish to the Company such information
regarding such Dolan Family Party as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in
writing, in each case only as required by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations
thereunder.
Each Dolan Family Party agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the
happening of any event of the kind described in Section 5(d) hereof, such Dolan Family Party will
forthwith discontinue disposition of the Registered Class A pursuant to the registration statement
covering such Registered Class A until such Dolan Family Party receives the copies of the
supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 5(d) hereof, and, if so directed by the
Company, such Dolan Family Party will deliver to the Company (at the expense of the Company) all
copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Dolan Family Partys possession, of the
prospectus covering such Registered Class A current at the time of receipt of such notice. If
interrupted by receipt of any such notice pursuant to Section 5(d), any 90-day period in
-16-
respect of which the Company is required to maintain the effectiveness of a registration
statement pursuant to Section 1(a) shall be extended by the number of days during which the
interruption was in effect.
6. Registration Expenses.
Other than in the case of (a) a registration at the request of a Qualifying Creditor
or (b) a demand registration under Section 1(a)(ii) after the second such registration
(each registration referred to in clause (a) or (b), a Designated Registration), all
expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with this Agreement by the Company,
including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance
with securities or blue sky laws (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in
connection with blue sky qualifications of the Registered Class A), printing expenses, messenger
and delivery expenses, internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses
of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the fees and expenses
incurred in connection with the listing of the Registered Class A on the NASDAQ Global Market or
any other securities exchange on which such Class A Common Stock is then listed, fees and
disbursements of counsel for the Company and its independent certified public accountants
(including the expenses of any special audit or comfort letters required by or incident to such
performance), securities acts liability insurance (if the Company elects to obtain such insurance),
the fees and expenses of any special experts retained by the Company in connection with such
registration, the fees and expenses of other persons retained by the Company, including transfer
agents, trustees, depositories and registrars (all such expenses being herein called
Registration Expenses), will be borne by the
-17-
Company. In the case of a Designated Registration, all Registration Expenses other than
internal expenses of the Company and securities acts liability insurance obtained by the Company at
its election, shall be borne by the Qualifying Creditor or the Dolan Family Holders participating
in the offering, as the case may be. The Company will not have any responsibility for any of the
expenses of any Dolan Family Party incurred in connection with any registration statement
hereunder, including, without limitation, underwriting discounts or commissions attributable to the
sale of Registered Class A and fees and expenses of counsel for such Dolan Family Party.
7. Indemnification; Contribution.
(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (i) each Dolan Family Party, (ii)
the directors, officers, partners, employees, agents, beneficiaries, trustees, members and
affiliates of each Dolan Family Party, and the directors, officers, partners, employees and agents
of each such affiliate, and (iii) each person who controls any of the foregoing (within the
meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act), and any investment adviser thereof, against
any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, expenses (or actions or proceedings in respect
thereof) or costs (including, without limitation, costs of investigation and reasonable attorneys
fees and disbursements incurred by any such indemnified person in connection with enforcing its
rights hereunder preparing, pursuing or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense,
action or proceeding), including any of the foregoing incurred in settlement of any litigation
commenced or threatened (collectively, Losses), joint or several, based upon or arising
out of (x) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact
-18-
contained in any registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, summary
prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, (y) any omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made)
not misleading, or (z) any violation by the Company of any federal, state or common law
rule or regulation applicable to the Company in connection with such registration, and the Company
will reimburse each such indemnified party for any such Loss, except in each case insofar as any
such Loss arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or omission made in any such
registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus,
amendment or supplement, or a violation of law or regulation in reliance upon and in conformity
with written information furnished to the Company by such indemnified party expressly for use in
the preparation thereof, it being understood that the information to be furnished to the Company
for use in the preparation of any such document shall be limited only to the information
specifically referenced in the penultimate sentence of Section 7(b). Such indemnity shall remain
in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by such indemnified person and shall
survive the Transfer of any Shares by any such indemnified person. The indemnity in this Section
7(a) shall not apply to Losses incurred by a person other than in his or her capacity as a selling
security holder. In connection with an underwritten offering, the Company will indemnify the
underwriters thereof, their officers and directors and each person who controls such underwriters
(within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided above
with respect to the indemnification of each Dolan Family Party.
-19-
(b) Indemnification by Dolan Family Parties. In connection with any registration
statement contemplated hereby, each Dolan Family Party participating in any offer or sale pursuant
to such registration statement will furnish to the Company in writing such information with respect
to such Dolan Family Party as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such
registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, summary prospectus or amendment or
supplement thereto and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, severally, and not jointly, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors, officers, employees, agents and
affiliates and the directors, officers, partners, employees and agents of each such affiliate and
each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act)
against any Losses insofar as such Losses arise out of or are based upon (i) an untrue or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any such registration statement,
prospectus, preliminary prospectus, summary prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto or any
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, to the extent that such untrue statement
or omission is contained in or omitted from any information with respect to such Dolan Family Party
so furnished in writing by such Dolan Family Party expressly for use in the preparation of such
registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, summary prospectus or amendment or
supplement thereto, as the case may be, or (ii) any violation by such Dolan Family Party of
any federal, state or common law rule or regulation applicable to such Dolan Family Party in
connection with such registration. It is understood that the
-20-
information to be furnished by a Dolan Family Party to the Company for use in the preparation
of any such document shall be limited only to information regarding such Dolan Family Party, the
ownership of such Dolan Family Partys Common Equity Securities, such Dolan Family Partys intended
method or methods of distribution and any other information required by law. The liability of a
Dolan Family Party under this Section 7(b) shall not exceed the amount of net proceeds received by
such Dolan Family Party (net of underwriting discounts borne by such Dolan Family Party) from the
sale of the Shares in the offering that is the subject of an indemnity claim under this Section
7(b).
(c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any person entitled to indemnification
hereunder agrees to give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party after the receipt by such
person of any written notice of the commencement of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation
or threat thereof made in writing for which such person will claim indemnification or contribution
pursuant to this Agreement, provided that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as
provided herein shall not relieve the indemnified party of its obligations under this Section 7,
except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such failure to give
notice. Unless in the reasonable judgment of such indemnified party, a conflict of interest may
exist between such indemnified party and the indemnifying party with respect to such claim, the
indemnified party shall permit the indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. If the indemnifying party is not
entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim, it will not be obligated to pay the
fees and expenses of more than one counsel with respect
-21-
to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of
interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with
respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the fees and
expenses of such additional counsel or counsels. No indemnifying party will be subject to any
liability for any settlement made without its consent. No indemnifying party, in the defense of
any such claim or litigation shall, except with the consent of the applicable indemnified party,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into
any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant
or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or
litigation.
(d) Indemnification Payments. Any indemnification required to be made by an
indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 7 shall be made by periodic payments to the indemnified
party during the course of the action or proceeding, as and when bills are received by such
indemnifying party with respect to indemnifiable Losses incurred by such indemnified party.
(e) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 from the
indemnifying party is unavailable to an indemnified party hereunder in respect of any Losses or is
insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party from all Losses covered thereby, then the
indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount
paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified parties in
connection with the actions which resulted
-22-
in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of
such indemnifying party and indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged
omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such indemnifying party or
indemnified parties, and the parties relative intent, knowledge, access to information and
opportunity to correct or prevent such statements or omissions. The amount paid or payable by a
party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall
be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7(c), any legal or other fees
or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding.
The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to
this Section 7(e) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which
does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding
paragraph. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f)
of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation.
Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, (i) no party shall be liable for
contribution under this Section 7(e) except to the extent and under such circumstances as such
party would have been liable to indemnify under this Section 7 if such indemnification were
enforceable under applicable law and (ii) no Dolan Family Party (or related indemnified
party) shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds
received by such Dolan Family Party (net of
-23-
underwriting discounts borne by such Dolan Family Party) from the sale of Shares in the
offering that is the subject of the claim for contribution exceeds the amount of any damages which
such Dolan Family Party (or related indemnified party) would have been required to pay by reason of
the indemnity under this Section 7 if such indemnification was enforceable under applicable law.
If indemnification is available under this Section 7, the indemnifying parties shall indemnify
each indemnified party to the full extent provided in Sections 7(a) and (b) without regard to the
relative fault of said indemnifying party or indemnified party or any other equitable consideration
provided for in this Section 7(e).
8. Participation in Underwritten Registrations. A Dolan Family Party may not
participate in any underwritten registration hereunder or under the Dolan Children Trusts
Registration Rights Agreement or otherwise unless such Dolan Family Party (a) agrees to
sell the Shares on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements with customary terms and
conditions for a secondary offering approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such
arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney,
indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of
such underwriting arrangements, provided that none of the foregoing shall in any way limit the
obligations of the Company under Section 7.
9. Miscellaneous.
(a) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company will not hereafter enter into any
agreement with respect to its securities which is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Dolan
Family Parties in this Agreement.
-24-
(b) Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or altered except by a
writing duly signed by the party against which such amendment or modification is sought to be
enforced.
(c) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the Company, the Dolan Family Parties and the respective successors and permitted
assigns of the Company and the Dolan Family Parties. This Agreement may not be assigned by either
the Company or a Dolan Family Party without the prior written consent of the other party hereto;
provided that the Company agrees that all transferees of all or substantially all of the Shares
held by Dolan shall be accorded all of the registration rights of Dolan hereunder. The Company
shall assign its rights and obligations hereunder to any entity that succeeds to all or
substantially all of its assets, by merger or otherwise, including to any holding company that may
be formed to be the parent of the Company, if such entity becomes the issuer of the securities then
owned by the Dolan Family Holders.
(d) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same
instrument.
(e) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and
shall not constitute a part hereof.
(f) Construction. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance
with, the internal laws of the State of New York without giving any effect to principles of
conflicts of laws.
-25-
(g) Notices. Any notice required or desired to be delivered hereunder shall be
(i) in writing, (ii) delivered by personal delivery, sent by commercial delivery
service or certified mail, return receipt requested, or by facsimile or electronic mail,
(iii) deemed to have been given on the date of personal delivery, the date set forth in the
records of the delivery service or return receipt, or in the case of facsimile or electronic mail,
upon dispatch, and (iv) addressed as designated on Schedule 1 hereto (or to such
other address as the party entitled to notice shall hereafter designate in accordance with the
terms hereof), with copies as designated on Schedule 1 hereto.
(h) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any
provision hereof to any person or circumstance is held invalid, the remainder of this Agreement and
the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected unless
the provision held invalid shall substantially impair the benefits of the remaining portions of
this Agreement.
(i) Entire Agreement. This Agreement is intended by the parties as a final expression
of their agreement and is intended to be a complete and exclusive statement of the agreement and
understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein. There are
no restrictions, promises, warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to
herein. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with
respect to such subject matter.
(j) Attorneys Fees. In any action or proceeding brought to enforce any provision of
this Agreement, or where any provision hereof is validly asserted as a
-26-
defense, the successful party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys fees in
addition to any other available remedy.
(k) Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective on June 30, 2011, or if the
Distribution is not consummated on that date, then it shall become effective on the date on which
the Distribution is consummated, in each case without any further action of any of the parties
hereto.
-27-
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the day and year first
written above.

Exhibit 3
REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT
BY AND AMONG
AMC NETWORKS INC.
AND
THE CHARLES F. DOLAN CHILDREN TRUSTS
REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT
Registration Rights Agreement (this Agreement) dated as of June 9, 2011 (but
effective as provided in Section 10(l)), by and among AMC Networks Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the Company), the Charles F. Dolan Children Trusts, created under an Agreement dated
December 22, 2009, between Kathleen M. Dolan, Paul J. Dolan, Matthew J. Dolan and Mary S. Dolan, as
Grantors and Trustees (the Children Trusts), and the Qualifying Creditors, if any, who
have agreed in writing to become bound by this Agreement. Certain capitalized terms used in this
Agreement are defined in Annex A hereto.
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, as of the date of this Agreement, the Children Trusts own shares of Cablevision NY
Group Class B Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (Cablevision Class B Common Stock),
and shares of Cablevision NY Group Class A Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (Cablevision
Class A Common Stock);
WHEREAS, the Children Trusts are party to a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of January
13, 2010, by and among Cablevision and the Children Trusts, and the Children Trusts have certain
registration rights under that agreement with respect to shares of Cablevision Class A Common
Stock;
WHEREAS, Cablevision intends to distribute (the Distribution) to the holders of
Cablevision Class A Common Stock all of the outstanding shares of the Companys Class A Common
Stock, $.01 par value (the Class A Common Stock), and
to the holders of Cablevision Class B Common Stock all of the outstanding shares of the
Companys Class B Common Stock, $.01 par value (the Class B Common Stock); and
WHEREAS, the Company and the Children Trusts wish to provide for benefits and restrictions
applicable to the Shares owned by the Children Trust Holders following the Distribution, all as
provided herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements contained herein,
the parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Conversion of Class B Common Stock into Class A Common Stock.
(a) Transfers Requiring Conversion. Subject to Section 1(b), (i) each
Children Trust agrees that if at any time or from time to time it desires to sell, transfer or
otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly (including, without limitation, any transfer or
issuance of equity or beneficial interests in an entity that is a Children Trust Holder) (a
Transfer), any or all of its shares of Class B Common Stock and (ii) each other
Children Trust Holder agrees that if at any time or from time to time it desires to Transfer any or
all of its CSCo Shares, such Children Trust or Children Trust Holder, as the case may be, shall
convert such shares of Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock in accordance with
the terms of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company immediately prior
to such Transfer. Subject to Section 1(b), the Company shall be under no obligation to record the
Transfer on its books of such shares of Class B Common Stock until they have been converted into
Class A Common Stock.
-2-
(b) Permissible Transfers Without Conversion. The provisions of subparagraph (a) of
this Section 1 are inapplicable to (i) any Transfer of shares of Class B Common Stock
(including any Transfer of equity or beneficial interests in an entity that is a Children Trust
Holder) to Dolan, his spouse, any person related to Dolan by reason of being his ancestor or
descendent (natural or adopted), any Acceptable Marital Trust, any entity (whether a corporation,
partnership, limited liability company, trust or other entity of any kind) all of the equity or
beneficial interests in which are owned or held by any of the foregoing persons, or any person
(whether or not such person is one of the foregoing persons) who is a trustee for, or is acting on
behalf of, any of such foregoing persons, and (ii) any bona fide pledge or similar
perfected security interest relating to any interest in any of the foregoing persons (an
Indirect Pledge) or to Collateral Stock, in either case for the benefit of any Creditor;
provided, however, that the Transfer shall not be permissible and shall be void for
all purposes unless (x) in the case of a Transfer referred to in clause (i) of this Section
1(b) the transferee executes a joinder agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (it being
understood that, if such transferee is also a successor to a Children Trust, neither the obligation
to execute, nor the execution of, such joinder agreement shall limit the effect of the first
sentence of Section 10(d)), and (y) in the case of a Transfer referred to in clause (ii) of
this Section 1(b), (A) such shares of Collateral Stock or, in the case of an Indirect
Pledge, such interests in such other person, remain registered solely in the name of one or more
Children Trust Holders, and (B) any such Creditor agrees with the Company in a writing
reasonably acceptable to the Company not to foreclose on, or otherwise make use of or exercise
remedies with respect to, or effect any Transfer of, the Collateral Stock or, in the case of an
Indirect Pledge,
-3-
such interests, without prior conversion of the shares of Collateral Stock or, in the case of
an Indirect Pledge, the shares of Class B Common Stock, owned by the person the interests in which
are the subject of the Indirect Pledge into shares of Class A Common Stock in accordance with the
terms of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, and provided
further that the last sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 1 shall remain applicable
to any shares of Class B Common Stock that are the subject of a Transfer, including any pledge or
the creation of any security interest, pursuant to this Section 1(b).
(c) Legends. All certificates representing shares of Class B Common Stock that are
covered by this Agreement shall have endorsed thereon a legend which shall read substantially as
follows:
The shares represented by this certificate are held subject to
the terms of a certain Registration Rights Agreement, dated June
9, 2011, by and among AMC Networks Inc. and the Dolan Children
Trusts, as amended from time to time, a copy of which is on file
with the Secretary of AMC Networks Inc., and such shares may not
be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, directly or
indirectly, except in accordance with the terms of such
Registration Rights Agreement.
2. Demand Registration by the Children Trust Parties of the Shares.
(a) Demand Registration. One or more of the Children Trust Parties may request in
writing, with the prior written consent (the Dolan Consent) of (i) Dolan,
(ii) if Dolan is deceased or disabled, of his widow, if deceased, or spouse, if disabled,
or (iii) if both Dolan and his wife are deceased or disabled, the Dolan Family Committee,
that the Company file a registration statement on an appropriate form for the general registration
of securities under the Securities Act, and include therein such number of the
-4-
Shares owned by such Children Trust Party as such person may specify in its written request;
provided, however, that (x) the Company shall not be required to file a
registration statement pursuant to this Section 2 if (A) the Shares requested to be so
registered do not, in the case of a Children Trust Holder, together with any Shares timely
requested to be registered by other Children Trust Holders and Other Holders pursuant to the
third-to-last sentence of this Section 2(a), have an aggregate Market Price exceeding the Rule 144
Threshold as of the Trading Day immediately preceding the expiration of the applicable Notice
Period under such sentence or, in the case of a Qualifying Creditor, do not have an aggregate
Market Price exceeding the Rule 144 Threshold as of the Trading Day immediately preceding the date
on which the request for registration is received by the Company, or (B) the Company
delivers to each Children Trust Party requesting registration under this Section 2 an opinion of
counsel to the Company (such opinion and such counsel to be reasonably acceptable to each such
Children Trust Party, it being agreed that the Companys regular outside securities counsel shall
be deemed to be reasonably acceptable counsel for this purpose) to the effect that the Shares
proposed to be registered by such person may be offered and sold by such person to the public in
the United States together with the Shares requested to be registered by all other Children Trust
Parties and Other Holders (I) without registration pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act and (II) within the volume limitations under Rule 144(e)
promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule or regulation) whether or not such
volume limitations are then applicable, (y) subject to the next sentence, after the death
of both Dolan and his spouse, the Children Trust Holders shall in the aggregate have the right on
only four occasions to require the Company to file
-5-
a registration statement pursuant to this Section 2, and (z) subject to the next
sentence, a Qualifying Creditor may require registration only following the exercise of its
remedies under a security agreement with a Children Trust Holder and for the purpose of
Transferring Shares pursuant thereto and each Qualifying Creditor may only require one registration
hereunder. The total number of demand registrations under clauses (y) and (z) of the immediately
preceding sentence and under the corresponding provisions of the Dolan Registration Rights
Agreement shall not exceed four. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, it is
understood and agreed that the Dolan Consent may be granted by the person or entity then entitled
to grant such consent with respect to a Qualifying Creditor at the time the pledge or similar
security arrangement applicable to such Qualifying Creditor is created, and that such consent will
thereafter constitute an irrevocable Dolan Consent for any future request by such Qualifying
Creditor for a registration under this Section 2, whether or not the person or entity that granted
such Dolan Consent is the person or entity otherwise entitled to grant Dolan Consents at the time
such request is actually exercised. All requests made pursuant to this paragraph shall specify the
aggregate number of Shares to be registered and the intended methods of disposition thereof, which
methods may include an underwritten public offering. Upon receipt of a written request for
registration from a Children Trust Holder pursuant to the preceding sentences, the Company shall
promptly give written notice of the proposed registration to each such other Children Trust Holder
and each Other Holder and provide each such other holder with the opportunity to join in such
request by written notice to the Company specifying the aggregate number of Shares to be registered
by such holder within 20 days from the date of the Companys written notice (such period is
referred to
-6-
as the Notice Period). Subject to Section 2(c) of this Agreement, the Company will
use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that each registration statement required to be filed
pursuant to this Section 2 shall be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
Commission) as promptly as reasonably practicable, but not later than 45 days after
receipt of such request by the Company, and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to
cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the Commission as promptly thereafter
as practicable; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to
maintain such effectiveness for more than 90 days. Notwithstanding the Companys rights to effect
a Suspension of Filing or Suspension of Effectiveness in Section 2(c), the Children Trust Parties
that made the registration request under this Section 2(a) shall have the right to withdraw any
such request, and such withdrawn request shall not count as a demand registration under clause (y)
or (z) of this Section 2(a) or the corresponding provisions under the Dolan Registration Rights
Agreement, if (1) the registration statement required to be filed pursuant to this Section
2 is not filed with the Commission by the date that is 45 days after such request is received by
the Company and has not at the time of such withdrawal been filed with the Commission, or is not
declared effective by the date that is 90 days after the date such registration statement is filed
with the Commission and has not at the time of such withdrawal been declared effective, and
(2) in either case, such Children Trust Parties notify the Company of the withdrawal of
such request no later than 10 days after such 45th or 90th day, as the case
may be.
(b) Concurrent Primary Offering. Anything in this Section 2 to the contrary
notwithstanding, if the Company at the time of receipt of a request for
-7-
registration pursuant to this Section 2 has a bona fide intent and plan to file a registration
statement (other than on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor forms) covering a primary offering by the
Company of its Common Equity Securities, the Company, by notice to the applicable Children Trust
Parties, may delay the filing (but not the preparation) of the requested registration statement for
a period ending on the earlier of (i) 60 days after the closing of such offering or
(ii) 120 days after receipt of the request for registration; and, provided,
further, if the Company either abandons its plan to file such registration statement or
does not file the same within 75 days after receipt of such request, the Company shall promptly
thereafter file the requested registration statement. The Company may not, pursuant to the
immediately preceding sentence, delay the filing of a requested registration statement more than
once during any two-year period.
(c) Suspension of Offering. Upon notice by the Company to any Children Trust Party
which has requested registration under this Section 2 that a negotiation or consummation of a
transaction by the Company or any of its subsidiaries is pending or an event has occurred, which
negotiation, consummation or event would require disclosure in the registration statement for the
requested registration and such disclosure would, in the good faith judgment of the board of
directors of the Company, be materially adverse to the business interests of the Company, and the
nondisclosure of which in the registration statement would reasonably be expected to cause the
registration statement to fail to comply with applicable disclosure requirements (a
Materiality Notice), the Company may delay the filing (but not the preparation) of such
registration statement (a Suspension of Filing). Upon the delivery of a Materiality
Notice by the Company pursuant to the preceding sentence at any time when a registration statement
-8-
has been filed but not declared effective, the Company may delay seeking the effectiveness of
such registration statement (a Suspension of Effectiveness), and each Children Trust
Party named therein shall immediately discontinue any offers of Shares under such registration
statement until such Children Trust Party receives copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus
that corrects such misstatement or omission, or until it is advised in writing by the Company that
offers under such registration statement may be resumed and has received copies of any additional
or supplemental filings which are incorporated by reference in such registration statement. Upon
the delivery of a Materiality Notice by the Company pursuant to the first sentence of this Section
2(c) at any time when a registration statement has been filed and declared effective, each Children
Trust Party named therein shall immediately discontinue offers and sales of Shares under such
registration statement until such Children Trust Party receives copies of a supplemented or amended
prospectus that corrects such misstatement or omission and notice that any post-effective amendment
has become effective, or until it is advised in writing by the Company that offers under such
registration statement may be resumed and has received copies of any additional or supplemental
filings which are incorporated by reference in the registration statement (a Suspension of
Offering; a Suspension of Filing, a Suspension of Effectiveness and a Suspension of Offering
are collectively referred to herein as, Suspensions). If so directed by the Company,
each Children Trust Party will deliver to the Company all copies (other than permanent file copies
then in such Children Trust Partys possession) of any prospectus covering Shares in the possession
of such Children Trust Party or its agents current at the time of receipt of any Materiality
Notice. In any 12-month period, the aggregate time of all Suspensions shall
-9-
not, without the consent of a majority of the Children Trust Holders (by number of Shares
held), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, exceed 180 days. If interrupted by a
Suspension of Offering, any 90-day period in respect of which the Company is required to maintain
the effectiveness of a registration statement pursuant to Section 2(a) of this Agreement shall be
extended by the number of days during which the Suspension of Offering was in effect. In the
event of any Suspension of Offering of more than 30 days in duration prior to which the Children
Trust Parties have sold less than 75% of the Shares to be sold in such offering, the Children Trust
Parties shall be entitled to withdraw such registration prior to the later of (i) the end
of the Suspension of Offering and (ii) three business days after the Company has provided
the Dolan Family Parties written notice of the anticipated date on which the Suspension of Offering
will end, and, if such registration is withdrawn, the related demand for registration shall not
count for the purposes of the limitations set forth under clauses (y) and (z) of Section 2(a) or
the comparable provisions under the Dolan Registration Rights Agreement.
(d) Market Price; Trading Day. For purposes of this Section 2:
(i) Market Price of a share of Class A Common Stock shall mean the weighted
average of the closing prices for the Class A Common Stock on each Trading Day (as defined
below) in the 30-day period ending on the day prior to the date of determination as
reported in the consolidated transaction reporting system of the NASDAQ Global Market or on
the comparable reporting system of such other exchange or trading system that is at the
time the principal market for the Class A Common Stock.
-10-
(ii) Trading Day shall mean any day on which trading takes place on the
NASDAQ Global Market or such other exchange or trading system that is at the time the
principal market for the Class A Common Stock.
3. Coordination of PiggyBack Registration Rights.
Each of the Children Trust Parties hereby acknowledges and consents to the grant by the
Company to the Dolan Family Affiliate Holders (as defined in the Dolan Registration Rights
Agreement and hereinafter referred to in this Agreement as the Other Holders), in the
Dolan Registration Rights Agreement, of the right of the Other Holders to include certain of their
respective shares of Class A Common Stock in certain registration statements filed pursuant hereto.
Each of the Children Trust Parties further acknowledges and agrees that if any offering hereunder
is to be underwritten and if the managing underwriter or underwriters of such offering informs such
person in writing that the number of shares of Class A Common Stock which the Children Trust
Parties, and the Other Holders, as the case may be, intend to include in such offering is
sufficiently large so as to affect the offering price of such offering materially and adversely,
then the respective number of shares of Class A Common Stock to be offered for the account of each
Children Trust Party and each Other Holder, as the case may be, who is participating in such
offering shall be reduced pro rata to the extent necessary to reduce the total number of shares of
Class A Common Stock to be included in such offering to the number recommended by such managing
underwriter. Except for such piggyback registration rights granted to Other Holders, and to any
transferee of the shares of Class A Common Stock owned by an Other Holder which may be registered
pursuant to the Dolan Registration Rights Agreement, neither the Company nor any of its security
-11-
holders shall have the right to include any of the Companys securities in any registration
statement filed pursuant hereto.
4. Piggyback Registration of the Shares.
If the Company proposes to file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect
to an offering (a) by an Other Holder of its holdings of Class A Common Stock pursuant to
the Dolan Registration Rights Agreement, (b) by any other holder of any Common Equity
Securities or (c) by the Company for its own account of any Common Equity Securities (other
than a registration statement on Form S-4 or S-8, or any successor form or a form filed in
connection with an exchange offer or an offering of securities solely to the existing stockholders
of the Company), the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to each of the
Children Trust Holders at least 20 days before the anticipated filing date which shall state
whether such registration will be in connection with an underwritten offering and offer such
Children Trust Holders the opportunity, subject to obtaining Dolans consent, if he is not then
deceased or disabled, to include in such registration statement such number of the Shares as such
Children Trust Holder may request not later than three days prior to the anticipated filing date.
The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the managing underwriter or underwriters
of a proposed underwritten offering to permit such Children Trust Holders to be included in the
registration for such offering and to include such Shares in such offering on the same terms and
conditions as the Common Equity Securities included in such offering. If such proposed offering is
to be underwritten, then upon request by the managing underwriter or underwriters given to such
Children Trust Holders prior to the effective date of the offering, any Children Trust Holder
electing to have Shares included
-12-
in the registration statement shall either enter into underwriting agreements with customary
terms and conditions for a secondary offering with such underwriter or underwriters providing for
the inclusion of such number of the Shares owned by such Children Trust Holder in such offering on
such terms and conditions or, if such Children Trust Holder shall refuse to enter into any such
agreement, the Company shall have the right to exclude from such registration all (but not less
than all) of the Shares of such Children Trust Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x)
in no event will any Children Trust Holder be required in such underwriting agreement (or in any
other agreement in connection with such offering) to (i) make any representations or
warranties to or agreements with the underwriters other than representations, warranties or
agreements customarily made by selling securityholders in underwritten secondary offerings,
(ii) make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company other than
representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Children Trust Holder, the ownership of
such Children Trust Holders Common Equity Securities, the authorization, validity and binding
effect of transaction documents executed by such Children Trust Holder in connection with such
registration and such Children Trust Holders intended method or methods of distribution and any
other representation required by law; provided that no Children Trust Holder shall be
required to make any representation or warranty to any person covered by the indemnity in Section
8(b) other than on a several (and not joint) basis, or (iii) furnish any indemnity to any
person which is broader than the indemnity customarily furnished by selling security holders in
underwritten offerings; provided that no Children Trust Holder shall be required to furnish any
indemnity broader than the indemnity furnished by such Children Trust Holder in Section 8(b) to
-13-
any person covered by the indemnity in Section 8(b), and (y) if the managing
underwriter or underwriters of such offering informs the Children Trust Holders in writing that the
number of Shares which the Children Trust Holders and the number of Shares which the Other Holders
intend to include in such offering is sufficiently large so as to affect materially and adversely
the success of such offering, the Shares to be offered for the account of the Children Trust
Holders and the Other Holders shall first be reduced pro rata to the extent necessary to reduce the
total number of shares of Class A Common Stock to be included in such offering to the number
recommended by such managing underwriter. In giving effect to the foregoing reduction, the
respective number of the Shares to be offered for the account of Children Trust Holders shall be
reduced pro rata.
5. Holdback Agreements.
(a) Restrictions on Public Sale by Children Trust Parties. To the extent not
inconsistent with applicable law, each Children Trust Party agrees not to offer publicly or effect
any public sale or distribution of Common Equity Securities, including a sale pursuant to Rule 144
under the Securities Act (or any successor rule or regulation), during the seven days prior to, and
during the 90-day period beginning on, the effective date of any registration statement filed by
the Company pursuant to which any such shares or securities are being registered (except as part of
such registration), if and to the extent requested by the Company in the case of a non-underwritten
public offering or if and to the extent requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters in
the case of an underwritten public offering.
(b) Restrictions on Public Sale by the Company and Others. The Company agrees
(i) that during the seven days prior to, and during the 90-day period
-14-
beginning on, the effective date of any registration statement filed at the request of a
Children Trust Party pursuant hereto, the Company will not offer publicly or effect any public sale
or distribution of Common Equity Securities (other than any such sale or distribution of such
securities in connection with any merger or consolidation of the Company or any subsidiary with, or
the acquisition by the Company or a subsidiary of the capital stock or substantially all of the
assets of, any other person or any offer or sale of such securities pursuant to a registration
statement on Form S-8), and (ii) that any agreement entered into after the date of this
Agreement pursuant to which the Company issues or agrees to issue any privately placed Common
Equity Securities shall contain a provision under which holders of such securities agree not to
effect any public sale or distribution of any such securities during the periods described in (i)
above, in each case including a sale pursuant to Rule 144 (or any successor rule or regulation)
under the Securities Act (except as part of any such registration, if permitted).
6. Registration Procedures.
In connection with any registration of the Shares owned by a Children Trust Party contemplated
hereby, the Company will as expeditiously as possible:
(a) Furnish to such Children Trust Party, prior to filing a registration statement, copies of
such registration statement as proposed to be filed, and thereafter such number of copies of such
registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits
thereto), the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary
prospectus) and such other documents in such quantities as such Children Trust Party may reasonably
request from time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Shares.
-15-
(b) Use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify the Shares being registered as
contemplated hereby (the Registered Class A) under such other securities or blue sky laws
of such jurisdictions as such Children Trust Party reasonably requests and do any and all other
acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such Children Trust Party
to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registered Class A; provided
that the Company will not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any
jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this paragraph (b),
(ii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (iii) consent to
general service of process in any such jurisdiction.
(c) Use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registered Class A to be registered with or
approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the
business and operations of the Company to enable such Children Trust Party to consummate the
disposition of such Registered Class A.
(d) Notify such Children Trust Party at any time, (i) of any request by the Commission
or any other federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to a
registration statement or related prospectus or for additional information, (ii) of the
issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a registration
statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, (iii) of the receipt by
the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption
from qualification of any of the Registered Class A for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation
or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose, and (iv) when a prospectus relating
thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a
result of which the
-16-
prospectus included in such registration statement contains an untrue statement of a material
fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, and, except as otherwise provided in Section 2(c) hereof, the
Company will, as expeditiously as practicable, prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus
so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registered Class A, such prospectus will
not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to
be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.
(e) Use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the
effectiveness of a registration statement, or the lifting of any suspension of the qualification
(or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registered Class A for sale in any jurisdiction at
the earliest date reasonably practical.
(f) Cause all such Registered Class A to be listed on the NASDAQ Global Market or on any other
securities exchange on which the Class A Common Stock is then listed, provided that the
applicable listing requirements are satisfied.
(g) Enter into customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form)
and take such other actions as are reasonably requested by the relevant Children Trust Party in
order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Registered Class A.
(h) Make available for inspection by such Children Trust Party, any underwriter participating
in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement, and any attorney, accountant or other
agent retained by such Children Trust Party or such underwriter (collectively, the
Inspectors), all financial and other records, pertinent
-17-
corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the Records) as
shall be reasonably necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility, and
cause the officers, directors and employees of the Company to supply all information reasonably
requested by any such Inspector in connection with such registration statement. Records which the
Company determines, in good faith, to be confidential and which it notifies the Inspectors are
confidential shall not be disclosed by the Inspectors unless (i) the disclosure of such
Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in the registration statement
or (ii) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a
court of competent jurisdiction. Any Children Trust Party shall use reasonable best efforts, prior
to any disclosure by any such Inspector under clause (i) of the preceding sentence, to inform the
Company that such disclosure is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in the
registration statement. Each Children Trust Party further agrees that it will, upon learning that
disclosure of Records is sought in a court of competent jurisdiction, give notice to the Company
and allow the Company, at the expense of the Company, to undertake appropriate action to prevent
disclosure of the Records deemed confidential.
(i) In the event such sale is pursuant to an underwritten offering, use its reasonable best
efforts to (i) obtain a comfort letter from the independent public accountants for the
Company in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by such letters
as any Children Trust Party reasonably requests and (ii) ensure that (A) the
representations, warranties and covenants contained in the applicable underwriting agreement shall
expressly be for the benefit of any Children Trust Party participating in such sale, (B)
the conditions to closing in said underwriting
-18-
agreement shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Children Trust Party and (C) to the
extent customary, all comfort letters and opinions of counsel contemplated by said underwriting
agreements are delivered to such Children Trust Party on the closing date of the offering.
(j) Otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and
regulations of the Commission and have the registration statement declared effective as soon as
practicable after filing.
The Company may require any Children Trust Party to furnish to the Company such information
regarding such Children Trust Party as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in
writing, in each case only as required by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations
thereunder.
Each Children Trust Party agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the
happening of any event of the kind described in Section 6(d) hereof, such Children Trust Party will
forthwith discontinue disposition of the Registered Class A pursuant to the registration statement
covering such Registered Class A until such Children Trust Party receives the copies of the
supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 6(d) hereof, and, if so directed by the
Company, such Children Trust Party will deliver to the Company (at the expense of the Company) all
copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Children Trust Partys possession, of the
prospectus covering such Registered Class A current at the time of receipt of such notice. If
interrupted by receipt of any such notice pursuant to Section 6(d), any 90-day period in respect of
which the Company is required to maintain the effectiveness of a registration
-19-
statement pursuant to Section 2(a) shall be extended by the number of days during which the
interruption was in effect.
7. Registration Expenses.
Other than in the case of (a) a registration at the request of a Qualifying Creditor
or (b) a demand registration under Section 2(a)(iii) after the second such registration
(each registration referred to in clause (a) or (b), a Designated Registration), all
expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with this Agreement by the Company,
including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance
with securities or blue sky laws (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in
connection with blue sky qualifications of the Registered Class A), printing expenses, messenger
and delivery expenses, internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses
of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the fees and expenses
incurred in connection with the listing of the Registered Class A on the NASDAQ Global Market or
any other securities exchange on which such Class A Common Stock is then listed, fees and
disbursements of counsel for the Company and its independent certified public accountants
(including the expenses of any special audit or comfort letters required by or incident to such
performance), securities acts liability insurance (if the Company elects to obtain such insurance),
the fees and expenses of any special experts retained by the Company in connection with such
registration, the fees and expenses of other persons retained by the Company, including transfer
agents, trustees, depositories and registrars (all such expenses being herein called
Registration Expenses), will be borne by the Company. In the case of a Designated
Registration, all Registration Expenses other than
-20-
internal expenses of the Company and securities acts liability insurance obtained by the
Company at its election, shall be borne by the Qualifying Creditor or the Children Trust Holders
participating in the offering, as the case may be. The Company will not have any responsibility
for any of the expenses of any Children Trust Party incurred in connection with any registration
statement hereunder, including, without limitation, underwriting discounts or commissions
attributable to the sale of Registered Class A and fees and expenses of counsel for such Children
Trust Party.
8. Indemnification; Contribution.
(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (i) each Children Trust Party,
(ii) the directors, officers, partners, employees, agents, beneficiaries, trustees, members
and affiliates of each Children Trust Party, and the directors, officers, partners, employees and
agents of each such affiliate, and (iii) each person who controls any of the foregoing
(within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act), and any investment adviser
thereof, against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, expenses (or actions or
proceedings in respect thereof) or costs (including, without limitation, costs of investigation and
reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements incurred by any such indemnified person in connection
with enforcing its rights hereunder preparing, pursuing or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability, expense, action or proceeding), including any of the foregoing incurred in settlement of
any litigation commenced or threatened (collectively, Losses), joint or several, based
upon or arising out of (x) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact
contained in any registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, summary
-21-
prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, (y) any omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made)
not misleading, or (z) any violation by the Company of any federal, state or common law
rule or regulation applicable to the Company in connection with such registration, and the Company
will reimburse each such indemnified party for any such Loss, except in each case insofar as any
such Loss arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or omission made in any such
registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus,
amendment or supplement, or a violation of law or regulation in reliance upon and in conformity
with written information furnished to the Company by such indemnified party expressly for use in
the preparation thereof, it being understood that the information to be furnished to the Company
for use in the preparation of any such document shall be limited only to the information
specifically referenced in the penultimate sentence of Section 8(b). Such indemnity shall remain
in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by such indemnified person and shall
survive the Transfer of any Shares by any such indemnified person. The indemnity in this Section
8(a) shall not apply to Losses incurred by a person other than in his or her capacity as a selling
security holder. In connection with an underwritten offering, the Company will indemnify the
underwriters thereof, their officers and directors and each person who controls such underwriters
(within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided above
with respect to the indemnification of each Children Trust Party.
-22-
(b) Indemnification by Children Trust Parties. In connection with any registration
statement contemplated hereby, each Children Trust Party participating in any offer or sale
pursuant to such registration statement will furnish to the Company in writing such information
with respect to such Children Trust Party as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection
with any such registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, summary prospectus or
amendment or supplement thereto and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, severally, and not
jointly, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors, officers, employees,
agents and affiliates and the directors, officers, partners, employees and agents of each such
affiliate and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the
Exchange Act) against any Losses insofar as such Losses arise out of or are based upon (i)
an untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any such registration
statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, summary prospectus or amendment or supplement
thereto or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of
the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, to the extent that such untrue
statement or omission is contained in or omitted from any information with respect to such Children
Trust Party so furnished in writing by such Children Trust Party expressly for use in the
preparation of such registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, summary prospectus
or amendment or supplement thereto, as the case may be, or (ii) any violation by such
Children Trust Party of any federal, state or common law rule or regulation applicable to such
Children Trust Party in connection with such registration. It is understood that the
-23-
information to be furnished by a Children Trust Party to the Company for use in the
preparation of any such document shall be limited only to information regarding such Children Trust
Party, the ownership of such Children Trust Partys Common Equity Securities, such Children Trust
Partys intended method or methods of distribution and any other information required by law. The
liability of a Children Trust Party under this Section 8(b) shall not exceed the amount of net
proceeds received by such Children Trust Party (net of underwriting discounts borne by such
Children Trust Party) from the sale of the Shares in the offering that is the subject of an
indemnity claim under this Section 8(b).
(c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any person entitled to indemnification
hereunder agrees to give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party after the receipt by such
person of any written notice of the commencement of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation
or threat thereof made in writing for which such person will claim indemnification or contribution
pursuant to this Agreement, provided that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as
provided herein shall not relieve the indemnified party of its obligations under this Section 8,
except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such failure to give
notice. Unless in the reasonable judgment of such indemnified party, a conflict of interest may
exist between such indemnified party and the indemnifying party with respect to such claim, the
indemnified party shall permit the indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. If the indemnifying party is not
entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim, it will not be obligated to pay the
fees and expenses of more than one counsel with respect
-24-
to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of
interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with
respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the fees and
expenses of such additional counsel or counsels. No indemnifying party will be subject to any
liability for any settlement made without its consent. No indemnifying party, in the defense of
any such claim or litigation shall, except with the consent of the applicable indemnified party,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into
any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant
or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or
litigation.
(d) Indemnification Payments. Any indemnification required to be made by an
indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 8 shall be made by periodic payments to the indemnified
party during the course of the action or proceeding, as and when bills are received by such
indemnifying party with respect to indemnifiable Losses incurred by such indemnified party.
(e) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 from the
indemnifying party is unavailable to an indemnified party hereunder in respect of any Losses or is
insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party from all Losses covered thereby, then the
indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount
paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified parties in
connection with the actions which resulted
-25-
in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of
such indemnifying party and indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged
omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such indemnifying party or
indemnified parties, and the parties relative intent, knowledge, access to information and
opportunity to correct or prevent such statements or omissions. The amount paid or payable by a
party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall
be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8(c), any legal or other fees
or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding.
The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to
this Section 8(e) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which
does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding
paragraph. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f)
of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation.
Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, (i) no party shall be liable for
contribution under this Section 8(e) except to the extent and under such circumstances as such
party would have been liable to indemnify under this Section 8 if such indemnification were
enforceable under applicable law and (ii) no Children Trust Party (or related indemnified
party) shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds
received by such Children Trust Party (net of
-26-
underwriting discounts borne by such Children Trust Party) from the sale of Shares in the
offering that is the subject of the claim for contribution exceeds the amount of any damages which
such Children Trust Party (or related indemnified party) would have been required to pay by reason
of the indemnity under this Section 8 if such indemnification was enforceable under applicable law.
If indemnification is available under this Section 8, the indemnifying parties shall indemnify
each indemnified party to the full extent provided in Sections 8(a) and (b) without regard to the
relative fault of said indemnifying party or indemnified party or any other equitable consideration
provided for in this Section 8(e).
9. Participation in Underwritten Registrations. A Children Trust Party may not
participate in any underwritten registration hereunder or under the Dolan Registration Rights
Agreement or otherwise unless such Children Trust Party (a) agrees to sell the Shares on
the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements with customary terms and conditions for a
secondary offering approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and
(b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities,
underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such
underwriting arrangements, provided that none of the foregoing shall in any way limit the
obligations of the Company under Section 8.
10. Miscellaneous.
(a) Specific Performance. The Company and each Children Trust Party acknowledge that
it will be impossible to measure in money the damage to the Company if such Children Trust Party
fails to comply with any of the obligations imposed by Section 1 of this Agreement, that every such
obligation therein is material
-27-
and that, in the event of any such failure, the Company will not have an adequate remedy at
law or in damages. Accordingly, each Children Trust Party consents to the issuance of an
injunction or the enforcement of other equitable remedies against it at the suit of the Company
without bond or other security, to compel performance by such Children Trust Party of all the terms
of Section 1 hereof, and waives any defenses of (i) failure of consideration, (ii)
breach of any other provision of this Agreement and (iii) availability of relief in
damages.
(b) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company will not hereafter enter into any
agreement with respect to its securities which is inconsistent with the rights granted to the
Children Trust Parties in this Agreement.
(c) Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or altered except by a
writing duly signed by the party against which such amendment or modification is sought to be
enforced.
(d) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the Company, the Children Trust Parties and the respective successors and permitted
assigns of the Company and the Children Trust Parties. This Agreement may not be assigned by
either the Company or a Children Trust Party without the prior written consent of the other party
hereto. The Company shall assign its rights and obligations hereunder to any entity that succeeds
to all or substantially all of its assets, by merger or otherwise, including to any holding company
that may be formed to be the parent of the Company, if such entity becomes the issuer of the
securities then owned by the Children Trust Holders.
-28-
(e) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same
instrument.
(f) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and
shall not constitute a part hereof.
(g) Construction. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance
with, the internal laws of the State of New York without giving any effect to principles of
conflicts of laws.
(h) Notices. Any notice required or desired to be delivered hereunder shall be
(i) in writing, (ii) delivered by personal delivery, sent by commercial delivery
service or certified mail, return receipt requested, or by facsimile or electronic mail,
(iii) deemed to have been given on the date of personal delivery, the date set forth in the
records of the delivery service or return receipt, or in the case of facsimile or electronic mail,
upon dispatch, and (iv) addressed as designated on Schedule 1 hereto (or to such
other address as the party entitled to notice shall hereafter designate in accordance with the
terms hereof), with copies as designated on Schedule 1 hereto.
(i) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any
provision hereof to any person or circumstance is held invalid, the remainder of this Agreement and
the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected unless
the provision held invalid shall substantially impair the benefits of the remaining portions of
this Agreement.
(j) Entire Agreement. This Agreement is intended by the parties as a final expression
of their agreement and is intended to be a complete and exclusive
-29-
statement of the agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject
matter contained herein. There are no restrictions, promises, warranties or undertakings, other
than those set forth or referred to herein. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and
understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter.
(k) Attorneys Fees. In any action or proceeding brought to enforce any provision of
this Agreement, or where any provision hereof is validly asserted as a defense, the successful
party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys fees in addition to any other available
remedy.
(l) Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective on June 30, 2011, or if the
Distribution is not consummated on that date, then it shall become effective on the date on which
the Distribution is consummated, in each case without any further action of any of the parties
hereto.
-30-
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the day and year first
written above.

Standstill Agreement (this Agreement), dated as of June 9, 2011, by and among AMC
Networks Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Company), each of the members of the Dolan
Family Group listed on Schedule I to this Agreement (the Dolan Family Parties) and, as
and to the extent provided herein, their transferees, successors and assigns.
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, as of the date of this Agreement, the Dolan Family Parties own all of the outstanding
shares of Cablevision NY Group Class B Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (Cablevision
Class B Common Stock), and also own shares of Cablevision NY Group Class A Common Stock, par
value $.01 per share (Cablevision Class A Common Stock);
WHEREAS, Cablevision intends to distribute (the Distribution) to the holders of
Cablevision Class A Common Stock all of the outstanding shares of the Companys Class A Common
Stock, $.01 par value (the Class A Common Stock), and to the holders of Cablevision Class
B Common Stock all of the outstanding shares of the Companys Class B Common Stock, $.01 par value
(the Class B Common Stock and, together with the Class A Common Stock, the Common
Stock); and
WHEREAS, the Company and the Dolan Family Parties wish to provide for certain restrictions
that will be applicable to the Dolan Family Parties following the Distribution, all as provided
herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements contained herein,
the parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Standstill Agreement.
During the 12-month period beginning on the date the Distribution is consummated (the
Distribution Date), the Dolan Family Parties shall obtain the prior approval of a
majority of the Companys Independent Directors prior to acquiring Common Stock of the Company
through a tender offer that results in members of the Dolan Family Group beneficially owning more
than 50% of the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company. For purposes of
this Standstill Agreement, the term Independent Directors means the directors of the
Company who have been determined by the Companys Board of Directors to be independent directors
for purposes of the NASDAQ corporate governance standards.
2. Transfers and Related Matters.
(a) Transfers. Each Dolan Family Party agrees that if at any time or from time to
time prior to the first anniversary of the Distribution Date it desires to sell, transfer or
otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly (including any transfer of equity or beneficial
interests in an entity that is a Dolan Family Party or any other entity to which shares of Class B
Common Stock may have been transferred, directly or indirectly) (a Transfer), any or all
of its shares of Class B Common Stock to any Dolan Person (as defined below) who is not a Dolan
Family Party, such Dolan Family Party shall, prior to the consummation of such Transfer, cause the
transferee to execute a joinder agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (a
Joinder), pursuant to which such transferee shall agree to be bound by the
2
provisions of this Standstill Agreement as a Dolan Family Party. In addition, if prior to the
first anniversary of the Distribution Date, any person becomes a member of the Dolan Family Group,
the Dolan Family Parties shall cause such person to execute a Joinder. Dolan Person
means any individual who is a member of the immediate family (as defined in Rule 16a-1(e) under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of a Dolan Family Party; an entity that controls,
is controlled by, or is under common control with, a Dolan Family Party; or a trust or estate in
which a Dolan Family Party has an interest (including as a trustee or beneficiary).
(b) Legends. The Company may, at its election, require that any certificate
representing shares of Class B Common Stock that are covered by this Standstill Agreement and that
are issued prior to the first anniversary of the Distribution Date shall have endorsed thereon a
legend which shall read substantially as follows:
The shares represented by this certificate are held subject to the
terms of a certain Standstill Agreement, dated June 9, 2011, by and
among AMC Networks Inc. and the Dolan Family Group, as amended from
time to time, a copy of which is on file with the Secretary of AMC
Networks Inc., and such shares may not be sold, transferred or
otherwise disposed of, directly or indirectly, except in accordance
with the terms of such Standstill Agreement.
Following the first anniversary of the Distribution Date, any stockholder may require the Company
to remove the foregoing legend from any of such stockholders share certificates promptly
after the surrender of any such certificate for such purpose.

3. Miscellaneous.
(a) Specific Performance. The Company and each Dolan Family Party acknowledge that
it will be impossible to measure in money the damage to a party hereto if another party fails to
comply with any of the obligations imposed by this Standstill Agreement, that every such
obligation herein is material and that, in the event of any such failure, the non-breaching party
will not have an adequate remedy at law or in damages. Accordingly, each party hereto consents
to the issuance of an injunction or the enforcement of other equitable remedies against it
without bond or other security, to compel performance by such party of all the terms hereof, and
waives any defenses of (i) failure of consideration, (ii) breach of any other provision of this
Agreement and (iii) availability of relief in damages.
(b) Amendments. This Standstill Agreement may not be amended, modified or altered
except by a writing duly signed by the party against which such amendment or modification is
sought to be enforced and with the consent of a majority of the Independent Directors.
(c) Successors and Assigns. This Standstill Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the Company, the Dolan Family Parties and the respective successors and
permitted assigns of the Company and the Dolan Family Parties. This Standstill Agreement may not
be assigned by either the Company or a Dolan Family Party without the prior written consent of
the other party hereto. The Company shall assign its rights and obligations hereunder (and no
consent thereto shall be required under this Section 3(c)) to any entity that succeeds to all or
substantially all of its assets, by merger or otherwise, including to any holding company that
may be formed to be the parent of the
4
Company, if such entity becomes the issuer of the securities then owned by the Dolan Family
Parties.
(d) Termination. This Agreement shall terminate on the first anniversary of the
date hereof, but a termination shall not affect any rights accrued prior to such termination.
(e) Counterparts. This Standstill Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall
constitute one and the same instrument.
(f) Headings. The headings in this Standstill Agreement are for reference purposes
only and shall not constitute a part hereof.
(g) Construction. This Standstill Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York without giving any effect to
principles of conflicts of laws.
(h) Notices. All notices hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have
been given at the time when mailed by certified mail, addressed to the address below stated of
