Item 5.07

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

This current report on Form 8-K (the “Amendment”) amends a current report on Form 8-K, filed on June 6, 2012 (the “Original Filing”), in which AMC Networks Inc. (the “Company”) reported voting results for its Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on June 5, 2012 (the “2012 Annual Meeting”), including the voting results for the Company’s non-binding stockholder vote regarding the frequency of future say-on-pay votes advisory votes on executive compensation (the “Say on Pay Vote”). Except as set forth below, this Amendment does not modify or update any other disclosure contained in the Original Filing.

On October 3, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors approved holding future Say on Pay Votes every three years until the next advisory vote on the frequency of the Say on Pay Vote. This is consistent with the recommendation of the Board of Directors to its stockholders and the preference of the Company’s Class A Stockholders and Class B Stockholders, voting together as a single class; as represented by their votes at the 2012 Annual Meeting.
