amended and restated, the "Contribution and Merger Agreement"), with TCI
Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation and the principal cable television
subsidiary of Tele-Communications, Inc. ("TCI Communications"), CSC Parent
Corporation, a Delaware corporation wholly-owned by Issuer ("Parent"), and CSC
Merger Corporation, a Delaware corporation wholly-owned by Parent ("Merger
Sub"). The Contribution and Merger Agreement provides for the merger of Merger
Sub with and into Issuer, with Issuer as the surviving corporation, and the
conversion in the merger of outstanding shares of Issuer's common stock into
like shares of common stock of Parent and for the contribution by or on behalf
of TCI Communications of corporations (the "Contributed Entities") owning, or
assets constituting, specified cable television systems in exchange for shares
of Class A Common Stock of Parent. Issuer's Series I Preferred Shares will
become convertible into Series A Common Stock of Parent. Following the closing
(the "Closing") of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution and Merger
Agreement, Parent

shareholders of Issuer will become common shareholders of Parent, which will be
a new publicly traded company that will own Issuer and, separately, the
Contributed Entities.
Shareholders of Issuer having a majority of Issuer's voting power have
agreed with TCI Communications in a voting agreement (the "Voting Agreement")
that they will vote to approve the adoption of the Contribution and Merger
Agreement and the issuance of Parent shares to TCI Communications and against
any matter that would compete with or interfere with such adoption and issuance.

Communications ("TCI"), and certain holders of Parent's Class B Common Stock
(the "Class B Stockholders") will enter into a Stockholders Agreement (the

TCI's ability to purchase and sell Class A Common Stock, (ii) consultation
rights between Parent, TCI and the Class B Stockholders regarding sales of

and sales of Class B Common Stock owned by the Class B Stockholders, (iii) TCI's
right to designate two Class B directors, (iv) the right of TCI director
designees to membership on a Parent Board committee to approve certain

CUSIP No. 12686C-10-9 13G
Exhibit A
The Dolan Family Foundation, a New York not for profit corporation (the
"Foundation"), as of December 31, 1997, owned 209,830 shares of Class A Common
Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"), par value $.01 per
share (the "Class A Common Stock"), of Cablevision Systems Corporation, a
Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"). The Foundation is organized as a Membership
Corporation. The sole members, with lifetime terms, of the Foundation are Helen
A. Dolan ("Mrs. Dolan") and her husband, Charles F. Dolan ("Mr. Dolan"). Mrs.
Dolan does not have an economic interest in such shares, but as a member with
her husband, does have the power to elect the directors of the Foundation and
thus the indirect power to vote and dispose of such shares. Under certain rules
of the Securities and Exchange Commission, so long as Mrs. Dolan retains such
powers, she is deemed to have beneficial ownership thereof.
As of December 31, 1997, the Charles F. Dolan 1997 Grantor Retained
Annuity Trust (the "Trust") owned 1,240,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, par
value $.01 per share (the "Class B Common Stock) of the Issuer. The Class B
Common Stock of the Issuer is convertible at the option of the holder share for
share into Class A Common Stock of the Issuer. The Trust was established on
April 30, 1997 by Mr. Dolan for estate planning purposes. For three years or
until the earlier death of Mr. Dolan, the Trust will pay to Mr. Dolan a certain
percentage of the fair market value of the property initially contributed to the
Trust (the "Annuity"). If Mr. Dolan dies during such three-year term and is
survived by Mrs. Dolan, the remaining portion of the Annuity will paid to Mrs.
Dolan until the earlier of her death or the date three years from Mr. Dolan's
death, provided that Mr. Dolan may revoke Mrs. Dolan's right to receive such
payments. If Mr. Dolan is living at the expiration of the term of the Trust, the
remainder will pass into another trust for the benefit of Mrs. Dolan and all
descendants of Charles F. Dolan living at any time and from time to time. If Mr.
Dolan is not living at the expiration of the term of the Trust, the then
principal of the Trust will revert to his estate. The two co-trustees of the
Trust are Mr. Dolan and Mrs. Dolan, who have the shared power to vote and
dispose of the Trust's shares. Under certain rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, so long as Mrs. Dolan retains such powers, she is deemed to
have beneficial ownership thereof.

Mrs. Dolan, as of December 31, 1997, owned directly 5,000 shares of
Class A Common Stock. Although Mrs. Dolan retains all economic interest in such
shares, Mr. Dolan may be deemed a beneficial owner thereof.
