For the avoidance of doubt, Options for which the applicable amount in (x) exceeds the exercise price in (y) (i.e., Options which are “underwater”) may be cancelled for no consideration as of the effective date of the going-private transaction with respect to the Company.

(B)    The cash award provided in Paragraph 1(A)(i)(a) or 1(A)(i)(b) shall become payable to you as follows: (1) if the Options are not exercisable on the effective date of the going-private transaction with respect to the Company, then the cash award shall become payable at the earlier of (i) the date on which such Options would otherwise have become exercisable hereunder had they continued in effect or (ii) if, immediately prior to termination you were an employee of the MSG Entertainment Group, the date on which your employment with the MSG Entertainment Group or the “MSG Entertainment Surviving Entity,” as defined below, is terminated (a) by the Company, one of its Subsidiaries or the MSG Entertainment Surviving Entity other than for Cause, if such termination occurs within three (3) years of the going-private transaction with respect to the Company or (b) by you for “good reason,” as defined below, if such termination occurs within three (3) years of the going-private transaction with respect to the Company, or (2) if the Options are exercisable on the effective date of the going-private transaction with respect to the Company, then the cash award shall become payable promptly.

been attained and (B) your vested Options will either (i) be cancelled and you will be entitled to prompt payment of an amount of cash determined in accordance with Section 1(A) above or (ii) if the Company or the MSG Entertainment Surviving Entity has shares of common stock (or partnership units) traded on a national stock exchange or on the over-the-counter market as reported on the New York Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange, then the Committee may (in its discretion) arrange to have the MSG Entertainment Surviving Entity grant to you in substitution for such Options an award of options for shares of common stock (or partnership units) of the MSG Entertainment Surviving Entity on the same terms with a value equivalent to such Options and which will, in the good faith determination of the Committee, provide you with an equivalent profit potential, as determined in a manner compliant with Section 409A.
