Item 1.01             Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 29, 2011, NeuLion, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreements”) with each of JK&B Capital V, L.P. and JK&B Capital V Special Opportunity Fund, L.P. (each a “Purchaser” and collectively the “Purchasers”) pursuant to which the Company issued and sold an aggregate of 10,912,265 shares of Class 4 Preference Shares (the “Preferred Shares”) for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $5 million (the “Private Placement”).  The purchase price per Preferred Share was $0.4582. The Subscription Agreements provided that JK&B Capital V Special Opportunity Fund, L.P. and JK&B Capital V, L.P. would subscribe for 43% and 57% of the Preferred Shares, respectively. The Preferred Shares carry an eight percent dividend until the occurrence of a liquidation event or, no sooner than five years after closing, redemption by the Company.  Each Preferred Share is convertible into one share of common stock of the Company at the option of the holder. The rights, preferences and privileges appurtenant to the Preferred Shares are fully set forth in the Certificate of Designation of the Company filed herewith as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated by reference herein (the “Certificate of Designation”).  The proceeds of the private placement will be used for general working capital purposes. The issuance was made in reliance on Rule 506 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and was made without general solicitation or advertising.

The Company and the Purchasers also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, dated June 29, 2011, pursuant to which the holders of at least a majority of the Preferred Shares may request the Company to file a registration statement under the Act to register the resale of all or part of the shares of common stock of the Company issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Shares owned by such persons, subject to certain restrictions.  This description of the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Registration Rights Agreement filed herewith as Exhibit 10.3 and incorporated by reference herein.
