NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1997
(unaudited)
The information furnished by Poland Communications, Inc. ("PCI" or the
"Company") in the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets, Statements
of Operations, Statements of Stockholders' Equity and Statements of Cash Flows
reflects all adjustments (consisting only of items of a normal recurring nature)
which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the
Company's results of operations and financial position for the interim periods.
The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 1996. The interim
financial results are not necessarily indicative of results of the full year.
1. THE REORGANIZATION
The Company's parent, @Entertainment, Inc., completed an initial public offering
of stock in the United States and internationally (the "Offerings") which closed
on August 5, 1997. Prior to the Offerings, all the holders of shares of PCI's
common stock and @Entertainment entered into a Contribution Agreement dated as
of June 22, 1997 (the "Contribution Agreement"). Pursuant to the Contribution
Agreement, each holder of shares of PCI's common stock transferred all shares of
PCI's common stock owned by it to @Entertainment, Inc. In addition, ECO Holdings
III Limited Partnership ("ECO") transferred all of the outstanding shares of
PCI's voting Series B Preferred Stock (the "PCI Series B Preferred Stock") to
@Entertainment, Inc. All of these transfers were designed to qualify as a
tax-free exchange under section 351 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Share Exchange"). Each holder of PCI's common stock received 1,000
shares of common stock of @Entertainment, Inc. in exchange for each share of
PCI's common stock transferred by it (the "Capital Adjustment"). ECO also
received an equivalent number of shares of @Entertainment, Inc.'s Series B
Preferred Stock ("@Entertainment Series B Preferred Stock) in exchange for its
series of PCI Series B Preferred Stock. The @Entertainment Series B Preferred
Stock has identical rights and preferences to those of the PCI Series B
Preferred Stock, except that the ratio for conversion of such shares into common
stock increased from 1:1.9448 to 1:1,944.8 in order to reflect the Capital
Adjustment. The 2,500 outstanding shares of @Entertainment Series B Preferred
Stock automatically converted into 4,862,000 shares of Common Stock of
@Entertainment, Inc. upon the closing of the Offerings (the "Automatic
Conversion").
On June 20, 1997, Polish Investments Holding L.P. ("PIHL") transferred
all of the outstanding shares of PCI's Series C Preferred Stock to an entity
owned by certain of the beneficial owners of PIHL and members of their families
(the "Chase Entity"). The Chase Entity, ECO and @Entertainment, Inc. entered
into a Purchase Agreement dated as of June 22, 1997 (the "Purchase Agreement").
Among other matters, the Purchase Agreement obligated @Entertainment, Inc. to
purchase all of the outstanding shares of PCI's Series A Preferred Stock and
Series C Preferred Stock for cash from ECO and the Chase Entity, respectively,
at the closing of the Offerings (the "Cash Purchase"). The aggregate purchase
price of $ 60.0 million for PCI's Series A Preferred Stock and Series C
Preferred Stock equals the aggregate redemption price of such shares as set
forth in PCI's certificate of incorporation. The Cash Purchase occurred shortly
after the closing of the Offerings and was funded with a portion of the net
proceeds of the Offerings.
In June 1997, certain employment agreements for the executive officers
of @Entertainment, Inc. who were employed by PCI and PCI's employee stock option
plans were assigned to @Entertainment, Inc. by PCI (the "Assignment"). As part
of the Assignment and the Capital Adjustment, the employment agreements and
employee stock option plans were amended to provide that each option to purchase
a share of PCI's common stock was exchanged for an option for 1,000 shares of
@Entertainment, Inc.'s Common Stock, with a proportionate reduction in the per
share exercise price.
The Share Exchange, the Capital Adjustment and the Assignment are
collectively referred to as the "Reorganization". As a result of the
Reorganization, @Entertainment, Inc. owns all of the outstanding shares of
voting stock of PCI.

2. ACQUISITION
On June 11, 1997, the Company purchased approximately 60% of a cable television
system company ("Gosat") that services approximately 70,000 subscribers in
several cities and towns in western Poland for approximately $10.9 million. The
purchase price represents an approximately $1.4 million payment for shares of
Gosat, an approximately $9.4 million payment for non-compete agreements, and the
remainder for costs of the acquisition. In addition, the Company has committed
to loan an additional $7.0 million to the newly acquired company. This loan,
which will be advanced in installments until March 31, 1998, has no set
repayment terms, and is interest free until January 31, 2000. Subsequent to
January 31, 2000, the loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 2%, and is due on
demand. The results of the acquired company have been included in the Company's
results since June 11, 1997. Had the June 1997 acquisition occurred on January
1, 1996, the Company's pro forma consolidated results for the six months ended
June 30, 1996 and six months ended June 30, 1997 would have been as follows:

3. COMMITMENTS
In April 1997, the Company reached an agreement in principle with
Ground Zero Media Sp. z o.o. ("GZM"), a joint venture with Polygram, the
recording company, Atomic Entertainment LLP, and Planet 24 Production Limited,
an independent production company, whereby the Company will assume
responsibility for selling all advertising to be shown on Atomic TV for a period
of one year, and will gain the right to retain all of the revenue from such
advertising. Atomic TV began satellite broadcasting to Poland on April 7, 1997.
In exchange for such rights the Company will pay GZM $4.95 million over the one
year period. The Company expects such agreement in principle to be formalized in
a written contract. The Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, owns 45% of
GZM.
4. OTHER
On April 11, 1997 Poland Cablevision B.V. ("PCBV"), a subsidiary of the
Company elected to be treated as a partnership for United States federal income
tax purposes instead of a corporation. The deemed conversion from the status of
corporation to partnership was effective as of January 29, 1997. Although PCBV
has made this election, it will continue in existence in its present legal form
under Dutch Company Law, and will not make any actual liquidating distributions
to its stockholders.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1997
(unaudited)
The information furnished by Poland Cablevision (Netherlands) B.V. ("PCBV") in
the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Balance sheets, Statements of
Operations, Statements of Stockholders' Equity and Statements of Cash Flows
reflects all adjustments (consisting only of items of a normal recurring nature)
which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of
PCBV's results of operations and financial position for the interim periods. The
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
statements and notes of PCBV for the year ended December 31, 1996. The interim
financial results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
1. NET LOSS PER SHARE
The computation of net loss per share is based on the weighted average
number of shares in common stock outstanding.
2. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On April 11, 1997, PCBV was elected to be treated as a partnership for
United States federal income tax purposes instead of a corporation. The deemed
conversion from the status of corporation to partnership was effective as of
January 29, 1997. Although PCBV has made this election, it will continue in
existence in its present legal form under Dutch Company Law, and will not make
any actual liquidating distributions to its stockholders

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements of the Company, including the notes
thereto, included herein. The following discussion contains certain
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's
actual future results could differ materially from those discussed herein.
OVERVIEW
The Company is organized based upon its two principal lines of
business: operation of cable television systems in Poland and the creation,
production, development and acquisition of Polish language programming.
Substantially all of the Company's revenue is derived from monthly
subscription fees for cable television services and one-time installation fees
for connection to its cable television networks. The Company charges subscribers
fixed monthly fees for their choice of service tiers and for other services,
such as premium channels, tuner rentals and additional outlets, all of which are
included in monthly subscription fees. The Company currently offers broadcast,
intermediate (in limited areas), and basic tiers of service. At June 30, 1997,
the Company had approximately 1,300,000 homes passed and approximately 690,000
cable television subscribers of which approximately 79.1% received basic
service.
The Company has experienced low churn rates during all years of its
operations. The Company's annual churn rates for 1994, 1995, 1996 and the first
six months of 1997 were 9.1%, 9.2%, 7.8% and 8.6%, respectively. The Company's
annual churn rates have historically averaged less than 10%. The Company
believes that its churn rates are low because of the Company's customer care
program, the high technical quality of its networks and desirable program
offerings. In addition, the Company benefits from a shortage of housing in
Poland that results in low move-related churn. These churn rates also reflect a
pricing strategy that was designed to keep the Company's profit margin
relatively constant in U.S. Dollar terms in more mature systems and to increase
rates in more recently acquired or rebuilt systems. Since the beginning of 1997,
the Company has adopted a new cable television pricing strategy designed to
maximize revenue per subscriber and achieve real profit margin increases in U.S.
Dollar terms. As a result, the Company expects that it may experience increases
in its churn rate above historical levels during the implementation of its new
pricing strategy across its cable networks.
The Company currently creates, produces, develops and acquires
programming for its two proprietary Polish language channels for distribution
across its cable networks. The Company has also set up a wholly owned
subsidiary, Mozaic Entertainment, Inc., to develop proprietary programming,
either directly or through joint ventures.

<PAGE> 17
ACQUISITIONS
The Company is currently negotiating to acquire two cable television systems in
Poland, as well as a 50% equity position in a Polish publishing company with
which it intends to develop programming and ancillary services (the
"Acquisitions"). The aggregate consideration to be paid by the Company in
connection with the Acquisitions is expected to be approximately $29.2 million.
The cable systems expected to be acquired serve approximately 60,000
subscribers, and approximately 100,000 homes passed. The consummation of the
Acquisitions will result in the expansion of the Company's cable operations
within its existing regional clusters. PCI intends to use a portion of the net
proceeds of the offering of its 9-7/8% Senior Notes Due 2003 (the "Old Notes")
issued in October 1996 to consummate these Acquisitions, although there can be
no assurance as to the timing of closing of any of the pending Acquisitions or
that the pending Acquisitions will actually be consummated. If all of the
Acquisitions are consummated, the Company estimates that it will spend
approximately $5.5 million within 12 months of the consummation of the
Acquisition to upgrade the acquired networks to meet the Company's technical
standards. Such upgrading would enable the Company to increase the number of
programs offered, the quality of the transmissions and the operating cost
effectiveness of the acquired networks. However the Company believes that the
networks to be acquired in the Acquisitions currently meet Polish State Agency
of Radio Communications ("PAR") standards and, accordingly, that the timing and
extent of such upgrades would be subject to the Company's discretion.

FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 1997 COMPARED TO FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 1996
CABLE TELEVISION REVENUE. Revenue increased $2.3 million or 34.9% from $6.6
million in three months ended June 30, 1996 to $8.9 million in three months
ended June 30, 1997 and $4.4 million or 36.5% from $12.0 million in the first
six months of 1996 to $16.4 million in the first six months of 1997. This
increase was primarily attributable to a 72.8% increase in the number of basic
subscribers from approximately 316,000 as of June 30, 1996 to approximately
546,000 as of June 30, 1997. Approximately 75% of this increase in basic
subscribers were the result of acquisitions and the reminder was due to
build-out of the Company's existing cable networks. Approximately 70,000 of
these new subscribers were acquired in June 1997 and, as a result, they had a
minimal impact on the Company's revenues for this period.
Revenue from monthly subscription fees represented 73.6% of cable television
revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and 79.0% for the first six
months of 1996. Monthly subscription revenue for the three months ended June 30,
1997 constituted 87.4% of total revenue, while for the six months ended June 30,
1997 the percentage was 86.5%. Installation fee revenue for the three months
ended June 30, 1997 decreased by 23.8% compared to the corresponding quarter in
1996 from $0.9 million to $0.7 and decreased by 15.0% from $1.7 million in the
first six months of 1996 to $1.5 million in the first six months of 1997. The
Company expects that installation fees related to new non-premium subscribers
will continue to constitute a declining part of the Company's revenue. During
the three months ended June 30, 1997, the Company generated approximately
$66,000 of additional premium subscription revenue and approximately $150,000 of
additional premium channel installation revenue as a result of launching HBO in
two regional clusters.
DIRECT OPERATING EXPENSES. Direct operating expenses increased $1.3 million, or
75.0%, from $1.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 1996 compared to
$3.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 1997 and increased $1.9 million,
or 58.1%, from $3.2 million in the first six months of 1996 to $5.1 million in
the first six months of 1997, principally as a result of higher levels of
technical personnel and increased maintenance expenses associated with recently
acquired networks which have not yet been integrated within the Company's
systems and standards as well as the increased size of the Company's cable
television system, and costs associated with the lease of three transponders on
the Astra II-E and II-F satellites which will provide the capability to deliver
the Company's Polish language programming platform to Polish customers through
the Company's cable television systems and through @Entertainment, Inc.'s
planned the direct-to-home satellite broadcast system. Direct operating expenses
increased from 26.2% of revenues in the three months ended June 30, 1996 to
34.0% in the three months ended June 30, 1997 and from 27.0% of revenues for the
first six months of 1996 to 31.2% of revenues for the first six months of 1997.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Selling, general and administrative
expenses increased $10.7 million from $ 1.2 million in three months ended June
30, 1996 to $11.9 million in three months ended June 30, 1997 and increased
$12.1 million from $2.9 million in the first six months of 1996 to $14.9 million
in the first six months of 1997, in part as a result of an increase in sales and
marketing expenses incurred in newly acquired networks, costs associated with
the agreement relating to sale of advertising on Atomic TV described in Note 3
to the Company's consolidated financial statements and costs of launching the
distribution of the HBO premium pay movie channel in Poland. In addition,
compensation expense was recorded in the three months ended June 30, 1997 of
approximately $7.3 million for options to purchase shares granted to two key
executives. (Such options have been transferred to the Company's parent, @
Entertainment, Inc., as described in Item 5.) Compensation expense also
increased as the Company has established a management team of senior executives
who have significant experience in the cable television and programming
business. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative
expenses increased from 19.9% for the three months ended June 30, 1996 to
approximately 134.2% for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and 23.8% for the
first six months of 1996 to approximately 90.9% for the first six months of
1997. However, without considering the non-cash compensation expense related to
the stock options described above, selling, general and administrative expenses
as a percentage of revenues would have been 52.5% in the three months ended June
30, 1997 and 46.6% in the first six months of 1997.
18
<PAGE> 19
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization expenses rose $1.3
million, or 68.8%, from $1.8 million to $3.1 million in the three months ended
June 30, 1996 and 1997, respectively, and $3.0 million, or 83.7%, from $3.6
million in the first six months of 1996 to $6.5 million in the first six months
of 1997, principally as a result of depreciation of additional cable television
assets acquired in connection with the build-out of the Company's networks and
acquisitions. Depreciation and amortization expenses as a percentage of revenues
increased from 27.6% in the three months ended June 30, 1996 to 34.5% in
corresponding period in 1997 and from 29.5% in the first six months of 1996 to
39.7% in the first six months of 1997.
INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased $4.1 million from $0.3 million in
the three months ended June 30, 1996 to $4.4 million in the three months ended
June 30, 1997 and $5.7 million from $1.9 million in the first six months of 1996
to $7.6 million in the first six months in 1997 primarily due to the issuance of
$130 million aggregate principal amount of Old Notes in October 1996.
INTEREST AND INVESTMENT INCOME. Interest and investment income increased $1.9
million from $0.2 million in the first six months of 1996 to $2.1 million in the
first six months of 1997, primarily due to the interest and investment income
derived from the investment of a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of
Old Notes in October 1996.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION LOSS. Foreign currency translation loss increased
$151,000, from a $34,000 gain in the three months ended June 30, 1996 to a
$(117,000) loss in the three months ended June 30, 1997 and $362,000, from a
$(60,000) loss in the first six months of 1996 to a $(422,000) loss in the first
six months of 1997, primarily due to increased assets subject to translation
during the period resulting from the growth of the Company and less favorable
exchange rate fluctuations.
MINORITY INTEREST IN SUBSIDIARY INCOME (LOSS). Minority interest in subsidiary
loss was $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and $2.6 million
for the first six months of 1997, resulting from loss incurred in two
minority-owned subsidiaries, compared to minority interest in subsidiary loss of
$69,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and $20,000 for the first six
months of 1996.
NET LOSS. During the three months ended June 30, 1996, the Company earned net
income of $0.7 million compared to net loss of $(10.0) million incurred during
the three months ended June 30, 1997. For the first six months of 1996 and 1997,
the Company had net losses of $(0.8) million and $(13.6) million, respectively.
These losses and income were the result of the factors discussed above.
EBITDA. EBITDA decreased by $2.6 million, from $6.2 million for the first six
months of 1996 to $3.6 million for the first six months of 1997. EBITDA consists
of net income (loss) as measured by U.S. GAAP adjusted for interest and
investment income, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, foreign
currency translation gains and losses, income taxes, extraordinary items,
non-recurring items, gains and losses from the sale of assets other than in the
normal course of business and minority interest in subsidiary income and loss.
The Company believes that EBITDA and related measures of cash flow from
operating activities serve as important financial indicators in measuring and
comparing the operating performance of cable television companies. EBITDA is not
intended to represent cash flow from operations under U.S. GAAP and should not
be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as an indicator of the
Company's operating performance or cash flows from operations as a measure of
liquidity. The Company treats the $7.3 million non-cash compensation expense
relating to the grant of stock options in the first half of 1997 as a
non-recurring item as such options were transferred to its parent and it expects
that future grants of stock options will not give rise to compensation expense.
19
<PAGE> 20
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has met its cash requirements in recent years primarily
with (i) capital contributions and loans from equity investors, (ii) borrowings
under available credit facilities and (iii) cash flow from operations. In
addition, in October 1996 PCI sold the Old Notes. The Company had negative cash
flow from operating activities for the first six months of 1997 of $(4.8)
million due to the Company's net loss.
PCI has entered into an agreement with Amerbank, which provides for a
credit facility of approximately $6.5 million. Funds are available under the
credit agreement through December 31, 1998 and interest, based on LIBOR plus 3%,
is due quarterly. All advances under the loan must be repaid by August 20, 1999.
As of the date hereof, there is no amount outstanding under this facility. PCI
will be able to utilize this facility for future borrowings.
On October 31, 1996, $130 million aggregate principal amount of Old
Notes were sold by PCI to the initial purchaser pursuant to a purchase
agreement. The initial purchaser subsequently completed a private placement of
the Old Notes. In June 1997 substantially all of the outstanding Old Notes were
exchanged for an equal aggregate principal amount of publicly-registered notes.
Both the Old Notes and the publicly-registered notes were issued pursuant to the
Indenture dated as of October 31, 1997 between PCI and State Street Bank & Trust
Company, trustee (the "Indenture").
Pursuant to the Indenture, PCI is subject to certain covenants,
including without limitation, covenants with respect to the following matters:
(i) limitation on additional indebtedness; (ii) limitation on restricted
payments; (iii) limitation on issuance and sales of capital stock and
subsidiaries; (iv) limitation on transactions with affiliates; (v) limitation on
liens; (vi) limitation on guarantees of indebtedness by subsidiaries; (vii)
purchase of Notes upon a change of control; (viii) limitation on sales and
assets; (ix) limitation on dividends and other payment restrictions affecting
subsidiaries; (x) limitation on investments in unrestricted subsidiaries; (xi)
limitations on lines of business; and (xii) provision of financial statements
and reports. Pursuant to the AmerBank credit facility, PCI is subject to certain
informational and notice requirements but is not subject to restrictive
covenants. PCI is in compliance with all covenants in the Indenture and the
AmerBank credit facility.
As a result of the offering of the Old Notes, the Company incurred
substantial debt. At June 30, 1997, the Company had, on consolidated basis,
approximately $130.3 million in principal amount of indebtedness outstanding,
net of discount.
Since the commencement of its operations in 1990, the Company has
required external funds to finance the build-out of its existing networks and to
finance acquisitions of new cable television networks. Prior to the
Reorganization described in Item 5, the Company had relied on the equity
investments and loans from stockholders and their affiliates and borrowings
under available credit facilities to provide the funding for these activities.
The Company does not expect that its former stockholders and their affiliates
will continue to make capital contributions and loans to the Company. There can
be no assurance that the Company's parent, @Entertainment, Inc., will make
capital contributions and loans to the Company.
20
<PAGE> 21
Cash used for the build-out of the Company's cable television networks
was $14.4 million in the first six months of 1997. In 1997, the Company also
expects to spend an additional approximately $27.5 million building-out and
upgrading existing cable television networks. Approximately $7.5 million of such
expenditure relates to the upgrading of the networks in the Katowice regional
cluster to meet PAR and Company standards. The rest of such expenditure for new
construction and upgrading is discretionary. The Company expects that the
rebuild program for Katowice regional cluster will be completed in 1997 at a
total cost of approximately $10 million. Aside from the Katowice upgrade, the
Company is not obligated to make any system upgrades in 1997 or in 1998.
However, the Company intends to continue to acquire additional cable systems,
upgrade its cable networks and increase its programming capacity.
Since March 31, 1997, the Company has acquired all or a substantial
portion of the capital stock or assets of three cable television systems in
Poland for aggregate consideration of $11.0 million.
The Company is currently negotiating to acquire two cable television
systems in Poland, as well as a 50% equity position in a Polish publishing
company with which it intends to develop programming and ancillary services (the
"Acquisitions"). The aggregate consideration to be paid by the Company in
connection with the Acquisitions is expected to be approximately $29.2 million.
The cable systems expected to be acquired serve approximately 60,000
subscribers, and approximately 100,000 homes passed. The consummation of the
Acquisitions will result in the expansion of the Company's cable operations
within its existing regional clusters. PCI intends to use a portion of the net
proceeds of the offering of the Old Notes issued in October 1996 to consummate
these Acquisitions, although there can be no assurance as to the timing of
closing of any of the pending Acquisitions or that the pending Acquisitions will
actually be consummated. If all of the Acquisitions are consummated, the Company
estimates that it will spend approximately $5.5 million within 12 months of the
consummation of the Acquisitions to upgrade the acquired networks to meet the
Company's technical standards. Such upgrading would enable the Company to
increase the number of programs offered, the quality of the transmissions and
the operating cost effectiveness of the acquired networks. However the Company
believes that the networks to be acquired in the Acquisitions currently meet PAR
standards and, accordingly, that the timing and extent of such upgrades would be
subject to the Company's discretion.

INFLATION AND CURRENCY EXCHANGE FLUCTUATIONS
Since the fall of Communist rule in 1989, Poland has experienced high
levels of inflation and significant fluctuation in the exchange rate for the
zloty. The Polish government has adopted policies that slowed the annual rate of
inflation from approximately 250% in 1990 to approximately 20% in 1996. A
substantial portion of the Company's operating expenses and capital expenditures
are, and are expected to be, denominated in zloty and tend to increase with
inflation. The exchange rate for the zloty has stabilized and the rate of
devaluation of the zloty has decreased since 1991. However, the zloty exchange
rate and rate of devaluation have increased in the first six months of 1997. In
the first six months of 1997, Poland had inflation of 6.6%. The Zloty per
U.S. Dollar exchange rate quoted at noon by the National Bank of Poland was
2.8750, 3.0760 and 3.2860 for December 31, 1996, March 31, 1997 and June 30,
1997 respectively. Inflation and currency exchange fluctuations have had, and
may continue to have, an effect on the financial condition and results of
operations of the Company.
Substantially all of the Company's debt obligations and certain of the
Company's operating expenses and capital expenditure are, and are expected to
continue to be, denominated in or indexed to U.S. Dollars. By contrast,
substantially all of the Company's revenues are denominated in zloty. Any
devaluation of the zloty against the U.S. Dollar that the Company is unable to
offset through price adjustments will require the Company to use a larger
portion of its revenues to service its U.S. Dollar-denomination obligations.
While the Company may consider entering into transactions to hedge the risk of
exchange rate fluctuations, it is unlikely that the Company will be able to
obtain hedging arrangements on commercially satisfactory terms. Accordingly,
shifts in currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the ability of
the Company to service its U.S. Dollar-denomination obligations and, thus, on
the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARD NOT YET ADOPTED
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Board issues its Statement No. 128,
"Earnings per Share". Among other provisions, SFAS No. 128 simplifies the
standards for computing earnings per share. The Company does not expect the
adoption of SFAS No. 128 to have material impact on its financial statements.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION:
The Company's parent, @Entertainment, Inc., completed an initial public
offering of stock in the United states and internationally (the "Offerings")
which closed on August 5, 1997. Prior to the Offerings, all the holders of
shares of PCI's common stock and @Entertainment entered into a Contribution
Agreement dated as of June 22, 1997 (the "Contribution Agreement"). Pursuant to
the Contribution Agreement, each holder of shares of PCI's common stock
transferred all shares of PCI's common stock owned by it to @Entertainment, Inc.
In addition, ECO Holdings III Limited Partnership ("ECO") transferred all of the
outstanding shares of PCI's voting Series B Preferred Stock (the "PCI Series B
Preferred Stock") to @Entertainment, Inc. All of these transfers were designed
to qualify as a tax-free exchange under section 351 of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "Share Exchange"). Each holder of PCI's common stock
received 1,000 shares of common stock of @Entertainment, Inc. in exchange for
each share of PCI's common stock transferred by it (the "Capital Adjustment").
ECO also received an equivalent number of shares of @Entertainment, Inc.'s
Series B Preferred Stock ("@Entertainment Series B Preferred Stock) in exchange
for its series of PCI Series B Preferred Stock. The @Entertainment Series B
Preferred Stock has identical rights and preferences to those of the PCI Series
B Preferred Stock, except that the ratio for conversion of such shares into
common stock increased from 1:1.9448 to 1:1,944.8 in order to reflect the
Capital Adjustment. The 2,500 outstanding shares of @Entertainment Series B
Preferred Stock automatically converted into 4,862,000 shares of Common Stock of
@Entertainment, Inc. upon the closing of the Offerings (the "Automatic
Conversion").
On June 20, 1997, Polish Investments Holding L.P. ("PIHL") transferred
all of the outstanding shares of PCI's Series C Preferred Stock to an entity
owned by certain of the beneficial owners of PIHL and members of their families
(the "Chase Entity"). The Chase Entity, ECO and @Entertainment, Inc. entered
into a Purchase Agreement dated as of June 22, 1997 (the "Purchase Agreement").
Among other matters, the Purchase Agreement obligated @Entertainment, Inc. to
purchase all of the outstanding shares of PCI's Series A Preferred Stock and
Series C Preferred Stock for cash from ECO and the Chase Entity, respectively,
at the closing of the Offerings (the "Cash Purchase"). The aggregate purchase
price of $60.0 million for PCI's Series A Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred
Stock equals the aggregate redemption price of such shares as set forth in PCI's
certificate of incorporation. The Cash Purchase occurred shortly after the
closing of the Offerings and was funded with a portion of the net proceeds of
the Offerings.
In June 1997, certain employment agreements for the executive officers
of @Entertainment, Inc. who were employed by PCI and PCI's employee stock option
plans were assigned to @Entertainment, Inc. by PCI (the "Assignment"). As part
of the Assignment and the Capital Adjustment, the employment agreements and
employee stock option plans were amended to provide that each option to purchase
a share of PCI's common stock was exchanged for an option for 1,000 shares of
@Entertainment, Inc.'s Common Stock, with a proportionate reduction in the
per share exercise price.
The Share Exchange, the Capital Adjustment and the Assignment are
collectively referred to as the "Reorganization". As a result of the
Reorganization, @Entertainment, Inc. owns all of the outstanding shares of
voting stock of PCI.
