Item 5.02: Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

On September 15, 2016, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of MSG Networks Inc. (the “Company”) approved a form of stock option agreement (the “Form Option Agreement”) and form of performance stock option agreement (the “Form Performance Option Agreement”), which may be used for awards made under the Company’s 2010 Employee Stock Plan (the “Plan”). The forms of award agreements provide for the grant of nonqualified options to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, subject to the vesting and, in the case of the Form Performance Option Agreement, performance conditions to be set forth in the applicable agreement. The term and exercise price of any options granted pursuant to the Form Option Agreement or Form Performance Option Agreement will be as set forth in the applicable agreement; provided that, pursuant to the Plan, the term of any option award may not exceed 10 years and the exercise price of any option award may not be less than the fair market value (as defined in the Plan) of a share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock on the date on which the option is granted. The Form Option Agreement and Form Performance Option Agreement contain provisions applicable to a change of control or going private transaction of the Company that are consistent with such provisions set forth in the Company’s previously filed form of restricted stock unit and performance stock unit award agreements, respectively. The description above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Form Option Agreement and Form Performance Option Agreement, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2, respectively, and are incorporated into this Item 5.02 by reference.
