After agreeing to continue to negotiate past an already extended deadline, Rainbow Media and AT&T U-verse on Thursday came to terms on a new carriage deal.

The two sides averted a standoff that would have led to a blackout of AMC, IFC, Sundance Channel and WE tv in some 2.3 million U-verse households.

Terms of the contract were not disclosed, although AT&T characterized it as a “fair deal…at prices that are in line with the marketplace.”
