Except as described below, none of the foregoing natural persons has,
during the last five years, been convicted in a criminal proceeding, and has,
during the last five years, been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction which had the result of making him
subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or
prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws
or finding any violation with respect to such laws. The information with respect
to Malone and Kern is based upon filings made with the Securities Exchange
Commission, and the Reporting Persons have no actual knowledge which contradicts
such information. On August 15, 1996, Brooks was named in a 22 count indictment
filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of
Pennsylvania charging him with making false statements to a federal agency,
together with copyright infringement. On December 10, 1996, Brooks pleaded
guilty to a single misdemeanor charging him with copyright infringement. All
other charges were dismissed. On March 7, 1997, he was placed on probation with
conditions of work release and home confinement and ordered to pay a $25,000
fine.
The Company is an affiliate of Tele-Communications, Inc. ("TCI"), a 50%
stockholder of LCI. Because of contractual arrangements among the stockholders
of LCI which grant to HFL the exclusive right to control a majority of the board
of directors of LCI and the management and business affairs of LCI and its
subsidiaries, the Reporting Persons disclaim any formation of a group with TCI
or any beneficial ownership of shares of equity securities of the Company
beneficially owned by TCI, Malone or Kern. Because of the control rights held by
HFL, he has been included as a Reporting Person. HFL specifically disclaims any
beneficial interest in the Preferred Stock beneficially owned by LCI, Suburban,
StarNet and StarNet Int.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
On December 16, 1997, The Box Worldwide, Inc. was merged with and into the
Company. As a result, the common stock held by each Reporting Person was
exchanged for shares of Preferred Stock of the Company without any additional
consideration being paid by the Reporting Persons.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
The Reporting Persons acquired all of the shares of Preferred Stock
beneficially owned by them in the merger transaction described in Item 3, above.
As a result, the Preferred Stock was acquired as an investment and without the
purpose, intent or effect of changing or influencing the control of the Company.
The Reporting Persons may hold or sell the shares of Preferred Stock
beneficially owned by them, convert any or all of such shares into TCI Music
Class A Common Stock or acquire additional shares of such stock or the TCI Music
Class A Common Stock into which the shares of Preferred Stock are convertible.
The Reporting Persons reserve the right to change their purposes or intentions
at any time and from time to time.
<PAGE>
CUSIP NO. 87229N200 Page 12 of 14
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
The Reporting Persons believe that the aggregate number of shares of
Preferred Stock outstanding as of December 16, 1997, and after giving effect to
the issuance of the shares of Preferred Stock in the merger transaction
described in Item 3, above, is approximately 1,742,500 (as reported by outside
counsel to the Company). The percentage of beneficial ownership of each of the
Reporting Persons included in the responses to Item 13 on the cover page filed
herewith is computed based on such aggregate number of shares.
In addition, the Preferred Stock votes with the TCI Music Class A Common
Stock, which is entitled to one vote per share. The Preferred Stock is entitled
to three votes per share. The Company also has outstanding TCI Music Class B
Common Stock, which is entitled to ten (10) votes per share. As a result, the
shares of Preferred Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons represent
less than one percent (1%) of the total votes which may be cast by all classes
of TCI Music Common Stock.
StarNet Int has Sole Voting Power and Sole Dispositive Power as to no
shares and Shared Voting Power and Shared Dispositive Power as to 315,484
shares; StarNet has Sole Voting Power and Sole Dispositive Power as to no shares
and Shared Voting Power and Shared Dispositive Power as to 447,332 shares;
Suburban has Sole Voting Power and Sole Dispositive Power as to no shares and
Shared Voting Power and Shared Dispositive Power as to 53,958 shares; and each
of Lenfest Communications, Inc. and H.F. Lenfest has Sole Voting Power and Sole
Dispositive Power as to no shares and Shared Voting Power and Shared Dispositive
Power as to 501,290 shares.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with
Respect to Securities of the Issuer
StarNet previously entered into an agreement with Alan McGlade, the former
President of StarNet and the former President of The Box Worldwide, Inc. which
granted Mr. McGlade the option to purchase from StarNet up to 200,000 shares of
the common stock of The Box owned by StarNet. As a result of the merger
transaction described in Item 3, above, StarNet has offered to permit
Mr. McGlade to exercise his option in 14,000 shares of the Preferred Stock. The
option expires on December 31, 1998. Until the option is exercised and record
ownership of the shares is transferred to Mr. McGlade, Mr. McGlade has no voting
or investment power over the shares.
A copy of the Agreement is filed with this Schedule as Exhibit 99.0.2.
Item 7. Material to be filed as Exhibits
Exhibit 99.0.1 Joint Filing Agreement, dated December 24, 1997.

Re: Letter Agreement dated September 17, 1994 ("Letter Agreement")
--------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Alan:
In light of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of August 12, 1997
among The Box Worldwide, Inc. ("BOX"), TCI Music, Inc. ("TCIM") and TCI Music
Acquisition Sub, Inc., it is appropriate to clarify the impact of the
transactions contemplated by that Agreement on the option for BOX stock granted
under the Letter Agreement between me and StarNet (the "Option") which I have
attached.
Upon the completion of the merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the
200,000 shares of common stock which are the subject of the Option to you under
the Letter Agreement (the "Underlying BOX Common"), have been exchanged for
14,000 shares of TCI Music Class A Convertible Preferred Stock (the "TCIM
Preferred"), in accordance with the exchange ratio set out in the Merger
Agreement.
The Option will continue on the same terms as set forth in the Letter
Agreement, provided that (1) the shares subject to the Option shall be 14,000
shares of TCIM Preferred (the "Option Shares") issued in the Merger and (2) the
exercise price per share shall be adjusted accordingly, and shall be equal to
$250,000 divided by 14,000. If the TCIM Option Shares are subsequently converted
into TCI Music Series A Common Stock, the exercise price for the underlying
42,000 shares of TCI Music Series A Common Stock shall be equal to $250,000
divided by 42,000.
If TCIM subdivides the TCIM Preferred into a greater number of shares, or
combines them into a smaller number of shares, or engages in a business
combination or reclassification, re-capitalization or reorganization that
effects the TCIM Preferred such that an adjustment is required in order to
preserve the benefits under the Option, then such adjustments shall be made as
are equitable and appropriate, to any or all of (1) the number and kind of
shares for which the Option is exercisable, and (2) the exercise price for such
shares, as shall be appropriate, to preserve the benefits under the Letter
Agreement.
If the above correctly sets forth our agreement, kindly acknowledge your
agreement by signing and returning the enclosed copy of this letter.
Best regards,
/s/ H.F. Lenfest

Dear Alan:
The following will reflect our understanding:
1. Your position as President of StarNet will end December 31, 1994.
2. You agree to provide whatever counsel is needed without compensation on
StarNet matters in the calendar year 1995.
3. Should you be appointed CEO of VJN, Inc. ("VJN"), you will receive an
option by StarNet to purchase 200,000 shares of VJN stock at an exercise
price of $1.25 per share and you shall have the right to exercise the
option at any time prior to January 1, 1999. The exercise of the option may
be in partial amounts. However, you will be limited to the sale of no more
than 66,666 of the shares in the first year after the grant of the option,
66,666 of the shares in the second year after the grant of the option and
66,668 of the shares in the third year after the grant of the option.
StarNet shall have the right, if it so chooses, to place the 200,000 shares
