(1) The exercise price was determined by allocating the exercise price for the option under the Cablevision Systems Corporation ("Cablevision") equity plan between the existing Cablevision option and the Madison Square Garden, Inc. ("MSG") option based upon the ten-day weighted average prices of the Cablevision NY Group Class A Common Stock and the MSG Class A Common Stock immediately following the legal and structural separation of MSG from Cablevision ("Spin-off"). The underlying share amount takes into account the distribution ratio of four Cablevision shares of common stock to one share of MSG common stock.
(2) Represents options to purchase Class A Common Stock received by Mr. Sweeney in connection with the Spin-off, and granted pursuant to the MSG 2010 Employee Stock Plan (the "Plan"), in a transaction exempt under Rules 16a-9 or 16b-6 and 16b-3. The options are fully exercisable and vested as of the date of this filing. Ms. Dolan-Sweeney disclaims beneficial ownership of all options of MSG beneficially owned or deemed to be beneficially owned by her spouse and this filing shall not be deemed an admission that Ms. Dolan-Sweeney is, for the purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose, the beneficial owner of such securities.
(3) The exercise price was determined by allocating the exercise price for the stock appreciation right ("SAR") under the Cablevision equity plan between the existing Cablevision SAR and the MSG SAR based upon the ten-day weighted average prices of the Cablevision NY Group Class A Common Stock and the MSG Class A Common Stock immediately following the Spin-off. The underlying share amount takes into account the distribution ratio of four Cablevision shares of common stock to one share of MSG common stock.
(4) Represents SARs in respect of Class A Common Stock received by Mr. Sweeney in connection with the Spin-off, and granted pursuant to the Plan, in a transaction exempt under Rules 16a-9 or 16b-6 and 16b-3. The SARs are fully vested and exercisable as of the date of this filing. Ms. Dolan-Sweeney disclaims beneficial ownership of all MSG SARs beneficially owned or deemed to be beneficially owned by her spouse and this filing shall not be deemed an admission that Ms. Dolan-Sweeney is, for the purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose, the beneficial owner of such securities.
