(1) STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING PRESENTATIONS AND OTHER INFORMATION
ORGANIZATION AND CAPITALIZATION
FrontierVision Operating Partners, L.P. (the "Company" or "FVOP") is a Delaware
limited partnership formed on July 14, 1995 for the purpose of acquiring and
operating cable television systems. The Company owns and operates cable
television systems in three primary operating clusters - New England, Ohio and
Kentucky - with a fourth, smaller group of cable television systems in the
Southeast. The Company was initially capitalized in November 1995 with
approximately $38 from its sole limited partner, FrontierVision Operating
Partners, Inc. ("FVOP Inc."), a Delaware corporation, and approximately $38,300
from its, at the time, sole general partner, FrontierVision Partners, L.P.
("FVP"), a Delaware limited partnership.
On September 19, 1997, FrontierVision Holdings, L.P. ("Holdings"), a Delaware
limited partnership, and FrontierVision Holdings Capital Corporation ("Holdings
Capital") co-issued $237,650 aggregate principal amount at maturity of 11 7/8%
Senior Discount Notes due 2007 (the "Discount Notes"). Holdings, a
newly-organized holding company, was formed to be the co-issuer of the Discount
Notes and to be the new general partner of FVOP. FVP contributed to Holdings,
both directly and indirectly, all of the outstanding partnership interests in
FVOP immediately prior to the issuance of the Discount Notes, and therefore,
FVOP and FrontierVision Capital Corporation ("Capital") became wholly-owned
consolidated subsidiaries of Holdings. In addition, FVOP Inc., previously a
wholly-owned subsidiary of FVP, is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdings.
Capital, a Delaware corporation, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company,
and was organized on July 26, 1996 for the sole purpose of acting as co-issuer
with the Company of $200 million aggregate principal amount of 11% Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2006 (the "Notes"). Capital has nominal assets and does
not have any material operations.
REFERENCE TO ANNUAL REPORT
The attached interim financial statements are presented in accordance with the
requirements of Form 10-Q and consequently do not include all the disclosures
required by generally accepted accounting principles. It is suggested that the
accompanying financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997 (the "1997
10-K"), for additional disclosures, including a summary of the Company's
accounting policies.
The following notes, insofar as they are applicable to the three months ended
March 31, 1998, are not audited. In management's opinion, all adjustments
considered necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements are
included and all such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. The
results for the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 are not necessarily
indicative of the results for the entire 1998 fiscal year.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain amounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes.

STORM RELATED COSTS
During mid-January of 1998, certain of the communities served by the Company in
Maine experienced devastating ice storms. For the three months ended March 31,
1998 the Company has recognized a loss due to service outages and increased
labor costs of approximately $705 due to the ice storms. Additionally, the
Company has incurred approximately $540 of capital expenditures to repair
damaged subscriber drops. The Company expects the loss to be isolated to the
first quarter of 1998, although the long-term financial effect of the ice storms
cannot be determined.
(2) ACQUISITIONS AND ASSET EXCHANGES
ACQUISITIONS
The Company has completed several acquisitions during the periods presented. All
of the acquisitions have been accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting, and, accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to the
assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon the estimated fair values at
the respective dates of acquisition. Such allocations are subject to adjustments
as final appraisal information is received by the Company. Amounts allocated to
property, plant and equipment and to intangible assets will be respectively
depreciated and amortized, prospectively from the date of acquisition based upon
the Company's useful lives and amortization periods. The following table lists
the acquisitions and the purchase price for each.

results which actually would have resulted had the Acquisitions been consummated
on the date indicated. Furthermore, the above pro forma financial information
does not include the effect of certain acquisitions and dispositions of cable

On December 12, 1997, the Company entered into an agreement with the
shareholders of New England Cable Television of Massachusetts, Inc. ("NECMA") to
acquire all of the outstanding stock of NECMA for a price of approximately
$44,700. NECMA is a Massachusetts S-Corporation which owns cable television
assets in Massachusetts. The Company had advanced $2,000 as an earnest money
deposit related to this transaction as of March 31, 1998, and the stock purchase
was completed on April 3, 1998.

(a) Bank Credit Facility.
On December 19, 1997, the Company entered into a Second Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement (the "Amended Credit Facility") increasing
the available senior debt by $535.0 million, for a total availability
of $800.0 million. The amount available under the Amended Credit
Facility includes two term loans of $250.0 million each ("Facility A
Term Loan" and "Facility B Term Loan") and a $300.0 million revolving
credit facility ("Revolving Credit Facility"). The Facility A Term Loan
and the Revolving Credit Facility both mature on September 30, 2005.
The entire outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit
Facility is due on September 30, 2005, with escalating principal
payments due quarterly beginning December 31, 1998 under the Facility A
Term Loan. The Facility B Term Loan matures March 31, 2006 with 95% of
the principal being repaid in the last two quarters of the term of the
facility.
Under the terms of the Amended Credit Facility, with certain
exceptions, the Company has a mandatory prepayment obligation upon a
change of control of the Company and the sale of any of its operating
systems. Further, beginning with the year ending December 31, 2001, the
Company is required to make prepayments equal to 50% of its excess cash
flow, as defined in the Amended Credit Facility. The Company also pays
commitment fees ranging from 1/2% - 3/8% per annum on the average
unborrowed portion of the total amount available under the Amended
Credit Facility.
The Amended Credit Facility also requires the Company to maintain
compliance with various financial covenants including, but not limited
to, covenants relating to total indebtedness, debt ratios, interest
coverage ratio and fixed charges ratio. In addition, the Amended Credit
Facility has restrictions on certain partnership distributions by the
Company. As of March 31, 1998, the Company was in compliance with the
financial covenants of the Amended Credit Facility.

(3) DEBT (continued)
All partnership interests in the Company and all assets of the Company
and its subsidiaries are pledged as collateral for the Amended Credit
Facility.
In order to convert certain of the interest payable at variable rates
under the Amended Credit Facility to interest at fixed rates, the
Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements for notional
amounts totaling $170,000, and maturing between November 15, 1999 and
October 7, 2000. According to these agreements, the Company pays or
receives the difference between (1) an average fixed rate of 5.932% and
(2) various available floating rate options applied to the same
$170,000 notional amount every three months during the term of the
interest rate swap agreement. For the three months ended March 31, 1998
and 1997, the Company had recognized an increase in interest expense of
approximately $56 and $169, respectively, as a result of these interest
rate swap agreements.
On October 3, 1997, in order to convert certain of the future interest
payable at various rates under future indebtedness, the Company entered
into a forward interest rate swap agreement, commencing October 15,
1998, for a notional amount totaling 150,000, maturing on October 15,
2001. According to this agreement, the Company will pay or receive the
difference between (1) a fixed rate of 6.115% and (2) a floating rate
based on three month libor applied to the same $150,000 notional amount
every three months during the term of the interest rate swap agreement.
(b) Senior Subordinated Notes
On October 7, 1996, the Company issued, pursuant to a public offering
(the "Offering"), $200,000 aggregate principal amount of the Notes. Net
proceeds from the Offering of $192,500, after costs of approximately
$7,500, were available to the Company on October 7, 1996.
In connection with the anticipated issuance of the Notes, the Company
entered into deferred interest rate setting agreements to reduce the
Company's interest rate exposure in anticipation of issuing the Notes.
The cost of such agreements amounting to $1,390 will be recognized as a
component of interest expense over the term of the Notes.
The Notes are unsecured subordinated obligations of the Company
(co-issued by Capital) that mature on October 15, 2006. Interest
accrues at 11% per annum beginning from the date of issuance, and is
payable each April 15 and October 15, commencing April 15, 1997.
The Subordinated Notes Indenture has certain restrictions on incurrence
of indebtedness, distributions, mergers, asset sales and changes in
control of the Company.
J.P. Morgan Investment Corporation and First Union Capital Partners, Inc.
("Equity Holders") are affiliates of the Company, owning in the aggregate, a
37.6% limited partnership interest in FVP. Affiliates of the Equity Holders
received underwriting fees of approximately $3.6 million in connection with the
issuance of the Notes.

In October 1992, Congress enacted the Cable Television Consumer and Competition
Act of 1992 (the "1992 Cable Act") which greatly expanded federal and local
regulation of the cable television industry. In April 1993, the Federal
Communications Commission ("FCC") adopted comprehensive regulations, effective
September 1, 1993, governing rates charged to subscribers for basic cable and
cable programming services which allowed cable operators to justify regulated
rates in excess of the FCC benchmarks through cost of service showings at both
the franchising authority level for basic service and to the FCC in response to
complaints on rates for cable programming services. The FCC also adopted
comprehensive and restrictive regulations allowing operators to modify their
regulated rates on a quarterly or annual basis using various methodologies that
account for the changes in the number of regulated channels, inflation, and
increases in certain external costs, such as franchise and other governmental
fees, copyright and retransmission consent fees, taxes, programming fees and
franchise related obligations. The FCC has also adopted regulations that permit
qualifying small cable operators to justify their regulated service and
equipment rates using a simplified cost-of-service formula.
As a result of such actions, the Company's basic and tier service rates and its
equipment and installation charges (the "Regulated Services") are subject to the
jurisdiction of local franchising authorities and the FCC. The Company believes
that it has complied in all material respects with the rate regulation
provisions of the federal law. However, the Company's rates for Regulated
Services are subject to review by the FCC, if a complaint has been filed, or by
the appropriate franchise authority if it is certified by the FCC to regulate
basic rates. If, as a result of

the review process, a system cannot substantiate its rates, it could be required
to retroactively reduce its rates to the appropriate benchmark and refund the
excess portion of rates received. Any refunds of the excess portion of tier
service rates would be retroactive to the date of complaint. Any refunds of the
excess portion of all other Regulated Service rates would be retroactive to one
year prior to the implementation of the rate reductions.
The Company's agreements with franchise authorities require the payment of
annual fees which approximate 3% of system franchise revenue, as defined in the
franchise. Such franchises are generally nonexclusive and are granted by local
governmental authorities for a specified term of years, generally for extended
period of up to fifteen years.
For a more detailed discussion of the federal, state and local regulations
affecting the Company, see "Legislation and Regulation" in the 1997 10-K.
The Company and its affiliates have contingent liabilities related to legal
proceedings and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business.
Although it is reasonably possible the Company may incur losses upon conclusion
of such matters, an estimate of any loss or range of loss cannot be made. In the
opinion of management, it is expected that amounts, if any, which may be

Item 2. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of
the Company, the description of the Company's business as well as other sections
of this Form 10-Q contain certain forward-looking statements. The Company's
actual results could differ materially from those discussed herein and its
current business plans could be altered in response to market conditions and
other factors beyond the Company's control. Important factors that could cause
or contribute to such differences or changes include those discussed under "Risk
Factors" in the Company's Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to Form S-1 filed April
6, 1998 (File no. 333-9535).
INTRODUCTION AND RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
The Company's objective is to increase its subscriber base and operating cash
flow through selective acquisitions of cable television systems that can be
integrated with the Existing Systems and to enhance enterprise value through
operating improvements and revenue growth. The Company continues the process of
acquiring and integrating cable systems with its current systems and continues
to invest significant capital for technical enhancement.
The Company commenced operations in November 1995 with the acquisition of
certain cable television systems. The following table summarizes the Company's
acquisitions since inception:

(1) Represents the contract purchase price excluding working capital purchase
adjustments and transaction costs. (2) Includes 10,600 subscribers to systems
that were sold by the Company in 1996.
As of March 31, 1998, the Company's currently owned cable television systems
(the "Existing Systems") passed approximately 830,000 homes and served
approximately 570,500 basic subscribers. The Company has operated the Existing
Systems for a limited period of time and had no operations prior to November 9,
1995.

<PAGE>
On March 6, 1998, the Company consummated the acquisition of systems serving, in
the aggregate, approximately 8,100 basic subscribers in southeastern Michigan
from TVC-Sumpter Limited Partnership and North Oakland Cablevision Partners
Limited Partnership for an aggregate purchase price of $14.2 million. On March
12, 1998 the Company completed an exchange of cable television systems with
Comcast Cablevision of the South whereby the Company received cable television
systems in Tennessee (the "Comcast Systems") serving approximately 5,500
subscribers in exchange for certain of its cable television systems in Tennessee
and Virginia serving approximately 4,400 subscribers.
On April 1, 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of certain cable
television system assets in Ohio from TCI Cablevision of Ohio, Inc. for the cash
purchase price of $10.0 million. On April 3, 1998, the Company consummated the
stock purchase of all of the outstanding shares of New England Cable Television
of Massachusetts, Inc. ("NECMA") for an aggregate purchase price of
approximately $44.7 million. NECMA is a Massachusetts S-Corporation which owns
cable television assets in Massachusetts. As of May 14, 1998, the Company had
entered an additional asset purchase agreement to acquire certain cable
television systems, located in Ohio, for aggregate consideration of
approximately $38.0 million. This transaction is expected to close by the third
quarter of 1998 and is subject to customary closing conditions, and,certain
regulatory approvals that are not completely within the Company's control.
See Note 2 to the financial statements for a more detailed description of the
Company's acquisitions and asset exchanges.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Following is a discussion of the Company's results of operations for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 compared to the three months ended March 31, 1997.
The three month period ended March 31, 1998, is the only period in which the
Company operated all of the Existing Systems, although certain systems (the
Televista Systems and the Comcast Systems) were purchased or received in an
exchange during the period and are reflected only for that portion of the period
that such systems were owned by the Company.
The following table illustrates the Company's operating activities on a
comparative basis:

- ------------
(a) All acquisitions have been accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting and, therefore, the Company's historical results of operations
include the results of operations for each acquired system subsequent to
its respective acquisition date.
(b) For the three months ended March 31, 1998 the Company has recognized a loss
due to service outages and increased labor costs of approximately $705,000
due to mid January ice storms experienced by certain of the communities
served by the Company in Maine. Additionally, the Company has incurred
approximately $540,000 of capital expenditures to repair subscriber drops
damaged in the storms. The Company expects the loss to be isolated to the
first quarter of 1998, although the long-term financial effect of the ice
storms cannot be determined.
(c) EBITDA is defined as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization. The Company believes that EBITDA is a meaningful measure of
performance because it is commonly used in the cable television industry to
analyze and compare cable television companies on the basis of operating
performance, leverage and liquidity. In addition, the Company's senior bank
indebtedness (the "Amended Credit Facility") and Note Indenture contain
certain covenants, compliance of which is measured by computations
substantially similar to those used in determining EBITDA. However, EBITDA
is not intended to be a performance measure that should be regarded as an
alternative to either operating income or net income as an indicator of
operating performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity, as
determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Revenue increased 70.6%, or approximately $22.3 million, to approximately $53.8
million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 from approximately $31.5
million for the three months ended March 31, 1997. Operating expenses (including
storm related costs) and corporate expenses increased approximately 69.2% and
56.4%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 1998 from the three
months ended March 31, 1997. Decreases in the relative percentage of Operating
expenses to revenue was primarily attributable to the cost efficiencies achieved
through the integration of cable systems and increased revenue per subscriber
per month. The decrease in the relative percentage of Corporate expenses to
revenue is attributable to scale economies in the management of a larger
subscriber base.
Significant growth in revenue, operating and corporate expenses, basic
subscribers and pay units is primarily attributable to the Company's acquisition
of cable systems in a series of nine separate transactions. As its operations
base has developed, the Company has increased its focus on integration of
business operations to achieve efficiencies, significant investment in technical
plant and promotion of new and existing services to enhance revenues. The impact
of certain of these efforts resulted in an increase in EBITDA margin, which when
adjusted to exclude the storm related costs, improved from 43.6% for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 to 45.6% for the three months ended March 31, 1998.
On a same system basis, as if the Existing Systems had been owned by the Company
since January 1, 1997, revenue increased approximately 5.8% and EBITDA increased
approximately 8.0% form the three months ended March 31, 1997 to the three
months ended March 31, 1998.
During mid-January of 1998, certain of the communities served by the Company in
Maine experienced devastating ice storms. For the three months ended March 31,
1998 the Company has recognized a loss due to service outages and increased
labor costs of approximately $705,000 due these storms. Additionally, the
Company has incurred approximately $540,000 of capital expenditures to repair
subscriber drops damaged in the storms. The Company expects the loss to be
isolated to the first quarter of 1998, although the long-term financial effect
of the ice storms cannot be determined.
Basic subscribers increased approximately 57.4% from 362,350 at March 31, 1997
to 570,500 as of March 31, 1998, while pay units increased approximately 80.0%
from 149,500 to 269,200 over the twelve month period. On an annualized basis,
the Existing Systems generated basic subscriber growth of approximately 2.0%
during the first quarter of 1998, representing the initial effects of larger
scale marketing initiatives, including launches of new and repackaged
programming services, sales audit remarketing, and direct marketing through
flyer campaigns, newspaper inserts and telemarketing programs.
Depreciation and amortization increased 68.2% as a result of acquisition
activity that occurred in 1997 and 1998. Net interest expense increased to $15.2
million from $10.5 million primarily as a result of the higher weighted average
drawings on the Company's senior bank indebtedness. Other expenses for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 include the retirement of $128,000 of plant assets
in connection with completed upgrade and rebuild projects.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The cable television business generally requires substantial capital for the
construction, maintenance and expansion of cable plant and distribution
equipment. In addition, the Company has pursued, and intends to pursue in the
future, selective acquisitions. Since its founding in 1995, the Company's cash
from equity investments, bank borrowings and other debt issued by FVOP has been
sufficient to finance the Company's acquisitions and, together with cash
generated from operating activities, also has been sufficient to meet the
Company's debt service, working capital and capital expenditure requirements.
The Company intends to continue to finance such debt service, working capital
and capital expenditure requirements in the future through a combination of cash
from operations, indebtedness and equity capital sources, and the Company
believes that it will continue to generate cash and be able to obtain financing
sufficient to meet such requirements. The ability of the Company to meet its
debt service and other obligations will depend upon the future performance of
the Company which, in turn, is subject to general economic conditions and to
financial, political, competitive, regulatory and other factors, many of which
are beyond the Company's control.
AMENDED CREDIT FACILITY
Drawings on the Amended Credit Facility, along with cash flow generated from
operations, have been sufficient to finance capital improvement projects as well
as acquisitions. The Company has adequately serviced its debt in accordance with
the provisions of the Amended Credit Facility from EBITDA of approximately $23.9
million generated by the Company for the three months ended March 31, 1998.
On December 19, 1997 the Company amended its existing senior bank indebtedness
and entered into an $800.0 million Amended Credit Facility with The Chase
Manhattan Bank, as Administrative Agent, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., as
Syndication Agent, CIBC Inc., as Documentation Agent, and the other lenders
signatory thereto. The Amended Credit Facility includes a $300.0 million,
7.75-year reducing revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility"),
a $250.0 million, 7.75-year term loan (the "Facility A Term Loan") and a $250.0
million, 8.25-year term loan (the "Facility B Term Loan"). At March 31, 1998,
the Company had no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility,
$197.0 million outstanding under the Facility A Term Loan and $250.0 million
outstanding under the Facility B Term Loan. The weighted average interest rates
at March 31, 1998 on the outstanding borrowings under the Facility A Term Loan
and the Facility B Term Loan were approximately 7.94% and 8.07%, respectively.
The Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements to hedge the
underlying LIBOR rate exposure for $170.0 million of borrowings through November
1999 and October 2000. For the three months ended March 31, 1998, the Company
had recognized an increase to interest expense of approximately $56,000 as a
result of these interest rate swap agreements.
In general, the Amended Credit Facility requires the Company to use the proceeds
from any equity or subordinated debt issuance or any cable system disposition to
reduce indebtedness for borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility and to
reduce permanently commitments thereunder, subject to certain exceptions
permitting the Company to use such proceeds to fund certain permitted
acquisitions, provided that the Company is otherwise in compliance with the
terms of the Amended Credit Facility.
The Amended Credit Facility is secured by a pledge of all limited and general
partnership interests in the Company and in any subsidiaries of the Company and
a first priority lien on all the tangible and intangible assets of the Company
and each of its subsidiaries. In addition, in the event of the occurrence and
continuance of an event of default under the Amended Credit Facility, the
Administrative Agent is entitled to replace the general partner of the Company
with its designee.
FrontierVision Holdings, L.P. ("Holdings"), as the general partner of FVOP,
guarantees the indebtedness under the Amended Credit Facility on a limited
recourse basis. The Amended Credit Facility is also secured by a pledge of all
limited and general partnership interests in FVOP and a first priority lien on
all the assets of FVOP and its subsidiaries.
22
<PAGE>
SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES
On October 7, 1996, FVOP issued $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of 11%
Senior Subordinated Notes due 2006 (the "FVOP Notes"). The FVOP Notes mature on
October 15, 2006 and bear interest at 11%, with interest payments due
semiannually commencing on April 15, 1997. The FVOP Notes are general unsecured
obligations of the Company and rank subordinate in right of payment to all
existing and any future senior indebtedness. In anticipation of the issuance of
the FVOP Notes, the Company entered into deferred interest rate setting
agreements to reduce the interest rate exposure related to the FVOP Notes. The
financial statement effect of these agreements will be to increase the effective
interest rate which the Company incurs over the life of the FVOP Notes.
SENIOR DISCOUNT NOTES
Holdings and FrontierVision Holdings Capital Corporation ("Holdings Capital")
were formed for the purpose of acting as co-issuers of $237.7 million aggregate
principal amount at maturity of 11 7/8% Senior Discount Notes due 2007 (the
"Discount Notes"). FrontierVision Partners, L.P. ("FVP"), FVOP's sole general
partner, contributed to Holdings, both directly and indirectly, all of the
outstanding partnership interests of FVOP prior to the issuance of the Discount
Notes on September 19, 1997 and therefore, at that time, FVOP and Capital became
wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries of Holdings. Holdings contributed the
proceeds of the Discount Notes to FVOP as a capital contribution.
CASH FLOWS FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES
Cash flows from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 1998
were $16.8 million compared to $8.4 million for the three months ended March 31,
1997. The increase was primarily a result of cable television system operations
acquired during the twelve months ended March 31, 1998.
CASH FLOWS FROM INVESTING ACTIVITIES
Investing cash flows were primarily used to fund capital expenditures and
acquire cable television systems. Capital expenditures for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 were approximately $9.5 million compared to approximately
$5.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 1997. Capital expenditures
primarily consisted of expenditures for the construction and expansion of cable
plant and distribution equipment, and additional costs were incurred related to
the expansion of customer service facilities. The Company invested approximately
$14.9 million in acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 1998
compared with approximately $14.0 million for the same period in 1997.
The Company expects to spend a total of approximately $73.0 million over the
next two years for capital expenditures with respect to the Existing Systems.
These expenditures will primarily be used for (i) installation of fiber optic
cable and microwave links which will allow for the consolidation of headends,
(ii) analog and digital converter boxes which will allow the Company to more
effectively market premium and pay-per-view services, (iii) the continued
deployment of coaxial cable to build-out the Existing Systems, (iv) headend
equipment for the digital television system and (v) the upgrade of a portion of
the Company's cable television distribution systems to, among other things,
increase bandwidth and channel capacity.
CASH FLOWS FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES
Acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 1998 were financed with
borrowings under the Company's senior bank indebtedness. Acquisitions during the
three months ended March 31, 1997 were financed with equity contributions from
the Company's partners and borrowings under the company's senior bank
indebtedness.
During the three months ended March 31, 1997, the Company received approximately
$14.9 million of equity contributions from its partners.
23
<PAGE>
From inception through March 31, 1998, FVP received a total of $199.4 million of
equity contributions from its partners, all of which has been invested in
Holdings and down streamed to the Company.
YEAR 2000
The Company is in the process of a comprehensive review of its computer systems
and related software to ensure systems properly recognize the year 2000 and
continue to process business information. The systems being evaluated include
all internal use software and devices and those systems and devices that manage
the distribution of cable television service to customers. Furthermore, the
Company is in the process of initiating a program of communications with its
significant suppliers and service providers to determine the readiness of third
parties and the impact on the Company if those third parties fail to remediate
their own year 2000 issues.
The Company's assessment of the impact of the year 2000 date change should be
complete by the end of fiscal year 1998. Management of the Company has not yet
determined the cost associated with its year 2000 readiness efforts and the
related potential impact on the results of operations. There can be no assurance
that costs ultimately required to be paid to ensure the Company's year 2000
readiness will not have an adverse effect on the Company's financial position.
Additionally, there can be no assurance that the systems of other companies on
which the Company relies will be converted in time or that any such failure to
convert by another company will not have an adverse effect on the Company.
