                Description of Transaction and Public Interest Statement

Cablevision of New Jersey LLC (the “Licensee”) hereby submits the attached notification
of pro forma transfer of control. The Licensee is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of
Cablevision Systems Corporation (“Cablevision” or the “Company”).1/ Cablevision
converted its direct wholly-owned subsidiary, CSC Holdings, Inc. from a corporation to a
limited liability company, CSC Holdings LLC. This was merely a change in corporate
form. The ownership of CSC Holdings LLC is identical to the ownership of what was
CSC Holdings, Inc., and there has been no change in the management or operations of
Cablevision in connection with the transaction. The transfer of control of Cablevision of
New Jersey LLC therefore requires only pro forma notification.2/




1/       Please note that the Licensee may be listed in the FCC’s database as Cablevision of New
Jersey, Inc. On November 24, 2009, we submitted a notification of pro forma assignment of all
authorizations previously held by Cablevision of New Jersey, Inc. to Cablevision of New Jersey
LLC (IBFS file number IB2009007651). Accordingly, this notification gives effect to the
notification submitted on November 24, 2009.
2/
         See, e.g., 47 C.F.R. § 63.03(d) (defining pro forma transfers to include “corporate
reorganization which involves no substantial change in the beneficial ownership of the
corporation” and “assignment or transfer from a corporation to a wholly owned subsidiary thereof
or vice versa, or where there is an assignment from a corporation to a corporation owned or
controlled by the assignor stockholders without substantial change in their interests”), 47 C.F.R. §
73.3540(f) (listing pro forma transactions under broadcast ownership rules); Non-Substantial
Assignments of Wireless Licenses, 13 FCC Rcd 6293, 6297-99 (1998) (discussing the distinction
between substantial and pro forma transfers of control, the lack of a bright-line test, and the
Commission’s reliance for guidance upon the corpus of decisions under its broadcast ownership
rules); Committee for Full Value of Storer Communications, Inc. for Consent to Transfer of
Control, 101 FCC 2d 434, ¶¶ 30-31 (discussing generally the Commission’s treatment of pro
forma transfers of control).
