(the “Company”), effective as of [Date] (the “Grant Date”) to receive a performance restricted stock unit award (the “Award”). The Award is granted subject to the terms and conditions set forth below and in the Plan.

Capitalized terms used but not defined in this agreement (this “Agreement”) have the meanings given to them in the Plan. The Award is subject to the terms and conditions set forth below:

1.Awards. In accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the target amount of your contingent Award is [#RSUs] restricted stock units (the “Target Award”), which number of units may be increased or decreased to the extent the performance criteria (the “Objectives”) set forth in Appendix 2 attached hereto have been attained in respect of the period from January 1, [year] through December 31, [year] (the “Performance Period”). Each unit shall represent an unfunded, unsecured promise by the Company to deliver to you one share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (“Share”) on the Delivery Date. [The Award, calculated in accordance with Appendix 2 attached hereto, will vest upon the later of (i) March 15, [year] (or the immediately preceding business day, if such date is not a business day) and (ii) the date on which the Committee (as defined in Section 12 below) determines the Company’s performance against the Objectives (the “Vesting Date”);]1 provided that you have remained in the continuous employ of the MSG Entertainment Group, the Sphere Entertainment Group or the MSG Sports Group (each as defined below) from the Grant Date through the Vesting Date. In accordance with Section 10(b) of the Plan, in the discretion of the Committee, in lieu of all or any portion of the Shares otherwise deliverable in respect of your Award, the Company may deliver a cash amount equal to the number of such Shares multiplied by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date when Shares would otherwise have been issued, as determined by the Committee.

2.Vesting. Subject to Sections 3 and 4, you will automatically forfeit all of your rights and interest in the Award if you do not remain continuously employed with the MSG Entertainment Group, the Sphere Entertainment Group or the MSG Sports Group (each as defined below) from the Grant Date through the Vesting Date, regardless of whether the Objectives are attained.

For purposes of this Agreement, the “Sphere Entertainment Group” means the Company and any of its Subsidiaries. The “MSG Entertainment Group” means Madison Square

(B)If your employment is terminated while you are Disabled, and Cause does not then exist, the Award will remain subject to vesting on the Vesting Date in accordance with Section 1.

(C)[If your employment is terminated on or after the date that you achieve Retirement Eligibility, and Cause does not then exist, and you enter into your Employer’s then-current form of separation agreement (which shall include, without limitation, a covenant not to compete), the Award will remain subject to vesting on the Vesting Date in accordance with Section 1.]3

(D)For purposes of this Agreement:

7.Right to Vote and Receive Dividends. You shall not be deemed to be the holder of, or have any of the rights of a stockholder with respect to, any units unless and until the Company shall have issued and delivered Shares to you and your name shall have been entered as a stockholder of record on the books of the Company. Pursuant to Section 10(c) of the Plan, all ordinary (as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion) cash dividends that would have been paid upon any Shares underlying your units had such Shares been issued will be retained by the Company for your account until your units vest and such dividends will be paid to you (without interest) on the Delivery Date to the extent that your units vest.

8.Tax Representations and Tax Withholding. You hereby acknowledge that you have reviewed with your own tax advisors the federal, state and local tax consequences of receiving the units.

If, in connection with the units, your Employer is required to withhold any amounts by reason of any federal, state or local tax, such withholding shall be effected in accordance with Section 16 of the Plan. If your Units vest prior to payment in accordance with Section 3(B)[ or (C)]5, then you agree to cooperate with your Employer to satisfy any tax withholding obligations, in such manner as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.

9.Section 409A.

On the Delivery Date, if you have complied with your obligations under this Agreement and provided that your tax obligations with respect to the vested units are appropriately satisfied, we will instruct the custodian to electronically transfer your Shares to a brokerage or other account on your behalf (or make such other arrangements for the delivery of the Shares to you as we reasonably determine).

11.Right of Offset. You hereby agree that the Company shall have the right to offset against its obligation to deliver shares of Class A Common Stock, cash or other property under this Agreement to the extent that it does not constitute “non-qualified deferred compensation” pursuant to Section 409A, any outstanding amounts of whatever nature that you then owe to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

Except for any employment agreement between you and the MSG Entertainment Group, the Sphere Entertainment Group or the MSG Sports Group in effect as of the date of the grant hereof (as such employment agreement may be modified, renewed or replaced), this Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire understanding and agreement of you and the Company with respect to the units covered hereby and supersede all

prior understandings and agreements. Except as provided in Sections 9 and 16, in the event of a conflict among the documents with respect to the terms and conditions of the units covered hereby, the documents will be accorded the following order of authority: the terms and conditions of the Plan will have highest authority followed by the terms and conditions of your employment agreement, if any, followed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(A)The Committee shall, no later than the effective date of the transaction which results in a going-private transaction with respect to the Company, deem the Objectives to be satisfied at the target level and convert your Target Award into an amount of cash equal to (i) the number of your unvested units multiplied by (ii) the “offer price per share,” the “acquisition price per share” or the “merger price per share,” each as defined below, whichever of such amounts is applicable.

(B)Provided that you remain continuously employed with the MSG Entertainment Group, the Sphere Entertainment Group, the MSG Sports Group or the “Sphere Entertainment Surviving Entity,” as defined below, through the date of the earliest event described in any of (i), (ii) or (iii) below, any award provided for in Paragraph 1(A) shall become payable to you (or your estate) at or promptly after (but in no event more than fifteen (15) days after) the earlier of (i) the date on which your Award would otherwise have vested had it continued in effect, (ii) the date of your death or (iii) if, immediately prior to termination you were an employee of the Sphere Entertainment Group, the date on which your employment with the Sphere Entertainment Group or the Sphere Entertainment Surviving Entity is terminated (a) by the Company, one of its Subsidiaries or the Sphere Entertainment Surviving Entity other than for Cause (as defined below) or (b) by you for “good reason” (as defined below). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you become entitled to payment of an award by virtue of a termination in accordance with (iii)(a) or (iii)(b) of this Paragraph 1(B) and are determined by the Company to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A, the award shall be paid to you on the earlier of: (i) January 1, [year], (ii) the date that is six (6) months from your date of employment termination and (iii) any other date on which such payment or any portion thereof would be a permissible distribution under Section 409A. In the event of such a determination, the Company shall promptly following the date of your employment termination set aside such amount for your benefit in a “rabbi trust” that satisfies the requirements of Revenue Procedure 92-64, and on a monthly basis shall deposit into such trust interest in arrears (compounded quarterly at the rate provided below) until such time as such amount, together with all accrued interest thereon, is paid to you in full pursuant to the previous sentence; provided, that no payment will be made to such rabbi trust if it would be contrary to law or cause you to incur additional tax under Section 409A. The initial interest rate shall be the average of the one-year SOFR fixed rate equivalent for the ten (10) business days prior to the date of your employment termination.

2.In the event of a “Sphere Entertainment Change of Control,” as defined below, provided that you have remained continuously employed with the MSG Entertainment Group, the Sphere Entertainment Group or the MSG Sports Group through the effective date of the
