On August 16, 2016, Madison Square Garden Investments, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“MSG Investments”), then a wholly-owned subsidiary of Madison Square Garden Sports Corp., formerly The Madison Square Garden Company (“MSG Sports”), entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with GE Capital Equity Holdings, LLC, GE Business Financial Services Inc. and AN Capital Corporation (collectively, the “GE Parties”), pursuant to which MSG Investments purchased an aggregate of

Upon consummation of the transaction, all of the shares of Class C Common Stock purchased by MSG Investments automatically converted into an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to the Issuer’s certificate of incorporation.

The foregoing description of the Stock Purchase Agreement is not, and does not purport to be, complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of the Stock Purchase Agreement filed as Exhibit 3 to this Schedule 13D.

On April 17, 2020, Sphere Entertainment Co.

In connection with the spin-off, MSG Investments became an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Sphere Entertainment. On November 9, 2020, MSG Investments assigned the 3,208,139 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer owned by it to MSG National Properties, then another indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Sphere Entertainment, for no consideration.

On May 13, 2021, MSG National Properties converted 2,625,000 shares of Class A Common Stock into 2,625,000 shares of Class C Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Class C Common Stock”), of the Issuer, thereby reducing its voting power to 4.8%, to ensure compliance with Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) rules.

On April 20, 2023, MSGE became a standalone publicly traded company following its spin-off from Sphere Entertainment. In connection with the spin-off, MSG National Properties became an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of MSGE.

Purpose of Transaction.

Item 3 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated herein by reference.

The Reporting Persons intend to discuss matters relating to the business and affairs of the Issuer with members of the Issuer’s management and board of directors, and potentially other stockholders. MSGE and the Issuer may continue to utilize their shared expertise in live events, media and music to explore partnership opportunities in content, sponsorship and marketing and expand their collective customer base and national reach.

The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors, including, without limitation, the business relationships described above, the Issuer’s financial position and strategic direction, price levels of shares of Class A Common Stock, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, conditions in the securities market and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate, including, without limitation, (i) purchasing additional shares of Class A Common Stock or other financial instruments related to the Issuer, (ii) selling some or all of their shares of Class A Common Stock, or (iii) pursuing other plans or proposals that relate to, or would result in, any of the matters referred to in subparagraphs (a)-(j), inclusive, of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Pursuant to Article V, Section 11 of the Issuer’s certificate of Incorporation, the Issuer may place certain restrictions on the transfer of, and take certain other actions with respect to, Class A Common Stock held by the Reporting Persons to the extent necessary to avoid a violation of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, or the rules, regulations and policies promulgated by the FCC and in effect from time to time. Such restrictions may impact the ability of the Reporting Persons to engage in the aforementioned activities. The Issuer’s certificate of incorporation is filed as Exhibit 2 to the Schedule 13D.
