Steve Mosko is staying put at Sony.

The president of the studio's television division has signed a new four-year deal with Sony Pictures Entertainment that will keep him there through 2012. SPE Chairman and CEO Michael Lynton and SPE Co-Chairman Amy Pascal announced the deal Wednesday.

Mr. Mosko's new deal comes in the wake of a major coup for the executive. In June, Mr. Mosko landed a much-coveted deal to launch Harpo Productions' upcoming Dr. Oz strip.

"Steve has worked wonders in building up our domestic television business, and we are proud to have him continue leading Sony Pictures Television for years to come," Mr. Lynton said. "He and the team he's built at SPT have much to be proud of, given all their success in a wide range of businesses, from new programming to long-running shows, and ad sales to digital distribution."

Ms. Pascal called Mr. Mosko "a charismatic leader who's really elevated our television business in the community and a team player who works closely with the various divisions in the company."

Mr. Mosko has been at Sony since 1992 and has run the TV division since 2001. Under his watch, the studio completely revamped its production model and now is one of the leading suppliers of original scripted cable programming. Its roster includes series such as "Damages," "Rescue Me," "Breaking Bad," "10 Items or Less" and "My Boys."

He also supervises long-running Sony hits such as "The Young and the Restless," "Wheel of Fortune" and "Jeopardy!" The latter two series recently underwent transitions to high definition.

Also falling under Mr. Mosko's domain: Sony's interests in FearNet, Crackle.com, GSN and ITN Networks.

On the syndication side, Mr. Mosko has aggressively managed Sony's distribution of "Seinfeld," which continues to be one of the biggest moneymakers in television
