On August 16, 2016, GE Capital Equity Holdings, LLC, GE Business Financial Services, Inc. and AN Capital Corporation (collectively, the “Selling Entities”), each existing stockholders of the Company, entered into a purchase agreement with Madison Square Garden Investments, LLC (“MSG”), pursuant to which MSG agreed to acquire a total of 3,208,193 shares of the Company’s Class C common stock (the “Class C Common Stock”) from the Selling Entities, which, in accordance with the terms of the Class C Common Stock, converted into a like number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (the “Class A Common Stock”) upon completion of the transaction (the “MSG Transaction”).

MSG’s Observer Rights will expire at such time as MSG holds less than 75% of the number of shares of Class A Common Stock it held on the date of the Board Observer Letter.
