      uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties include, without
      limitation, risks relating to: WWE Network; major distribution
      agreements; our need to continue to develop creative and entertaining
      programs and events; the possibility of a decline in the popularity of
      our brand of sports entertainment; the continued importance of key
      performers and the services of Vincent K. McMahon; possible adverse
      changes in the regulatory atmosphere and related private sector
      initiatives; the highly competitive, rapidly changing and increasingly
      fragmented nature of the markets in which we operate and greater
      financial resources or marketplace presence of many of our competitors;
      uncertainties associated with international markets; our difficulty or
      inability to promote and conduct our live events and/or other businesses
      if we do not comply with applicable regulations; our dependence on our
      intellectual property rights, our need to protect those rights, and the
      risks of our infringement of others’ intellectual property rights; the
      complexity of our rights agreements across distribution mechanisms and
      geographical areas; potential substantial liability in the event of
      accidents or injuries occurring during our physically demanding events

      number of shares are eligible for sale by the McMahons and the sale, or
      the perception of possible sales, of those shares could lower our stock
      price; and the relatively small public “float” of our Class A common
      stock. In addition, our dividend is dependent on a number of factors,
      including, among other things, our liquidity and historical and
      projected cash flow, strategic plan (including alternative uses of
      capital), our financial results and condition, contractual and legal
      restrictions on the payment of dividends (including under our revolving
      credit facility), general economic and competitive conditions and such
