CNYG Stock Performance Graph
The chart below compares the performance of the Company's CNYG Class A common stock with the
performance of the S&P 500 Index and a Peer Group Index by measuring the changes in CNYG Class A
common stock prices from December 31, 2007 through December 31, 2012. As required by the SEC, the
values shown assume the reinvestment of all dividends and also reflect the effect of the AMC Distribution
and MSG Distribution. Because no published index of comparable media companies currently reports
values on a dividends-reinvested basis, the Company has created a Peer Group Index for purposes of this
graph in accordance with the requirements of the SEC. The Peer Group Index is made up of companies
that engage in cable television operations as a significant element of their business, although not all of the
companies included in the Peer Group Index participate in all of the lines of business in which the
Company is engaged and some of the companies included in the Peer Group Index also engage in lines of
business in which the Company does not participate. Additionally, the market capitalizations of many of
the companies included in the Peer Group are quite different from that of the Company. The common
stocks of the following companies have been included in the Peer Group Index for 2012: Comcast
Corporation, Mediacom Communications Corporation (until March 4, 2011 when Mediacom stock ceased
trading), Time Warner Cable Inc. (from January 5, 2007, when Time Warner Cable stock began trading),
and Charter Communications (from December 2, 2009, when Charter emerged from bankruptcy). The
chart assumes $100 was invested on December 31, 2007 in each of the Company's CNYG Class A
common stock, the S&P 500 Index and in a Peer Group Index and reflects reinvestment of dividends on a
quarterly basis and market capitalization weighting.
