INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Cox Communications, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying combined statement of net assets of Cox
Communications, Inc.'s ("CCI") Central Ohio Cluster as of December 31, 1996, and
the related combined statements of income, changes in net assets, and cash flows
for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of
CCI's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position of Cox
Communications, Inc.'s Central Ohio Cluster at December 31, 1996, and the
combined results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended,
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in Note 1, CCI sold the assets and certain liabilities of the
Central Ohio Cluster.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Information as of and for the Nine Months Ended
September 30, 1997 is unaudited)
(1) ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The combined financial statements represent the combined operations of Cox
Communications, Inc.'s ("CCI") cable television systems serving eight
communities in Central Ohio (collectively referred to as the "Central Ohio
Cluster"). These cable television systems were acquired by CCI, an indirect
75.3% owned subsidiary of Cox Enterprises, Inc. ("CEI"), from the Times Mirror
Company ("Times Mirror") in connection with CCI's acquisition of Times Mirror
Cable Television, Inc. ("TMCT") on February 1, 1995. The historical combined
financial statements do not necessarily reflect the results of operations or
financial position that would have existed had the Central Ohio Cluster been an
independent company. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have
been eliminated in the combined financial statements of the Central Ohio
Cluster.
On December 19, 1997, CCI sold the assets and certain liabilities of the Central
Ohio Cluster to FrontierVision Operating Partners, L.P. for approximately $204.0
million.
(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Revenue Recognition
The Central Ohio Cluster bills its customers in advance; however, revenue is
recognized as cable television services are provided. Receivables are generally
collected within 30 days. Credit risk is managed by disconnecting services to
customers who are delinquent generally greater than 75 days. Other revenues are
recognized as services are provided. Revenues obtained from the connection of
customers to the cable television systems are less than related direct selling
costs; therefore, such revenues are recognized as services are provided.
Plant and Equipment
Depreciation is computed using principally the straight-line method at rates
based upon estimated useful lives of five to 20 years for building and building
improvements, five to 12 years for cable television systems and three to 10
years for other plant and equipment.
The costs of initial cable television connections are capitalized as cable plant
at standard rates for the Central Ohio Cluster's labor and at actual cost for
materials and outside labor. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are
charged to operating expense as incurred. At the time of retirement, sale or
other disposition of property, the original cost and related accumulated
depreciation are written off.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist of goodwill and cable television franchise rights
recorded in connection with the acquisition of the Central Ohio Cluster from
TMCT and are amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 years. The Central Ohio
Cluster assesses on an on-going basis the recoverability of intangible assets
based on estimates of future undiscounted cash flows for the applicable business
acquired compared to net book value. The Central Ohio Cluster also evaluates the
amortization period of intangible assets to determine whether events or
circumstances warrant revised estimated of useful lives.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Information as of and for the Nine Months Ended
September 30, 1997 is unaudited)
(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Effective January 1, 1996, the Central Ohio Cluster adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of." This
statement requires that long-lived assets and certain intangibles be reviewed
for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, with any impairment losses
being reported in the period in which the recognition criteria are first applied
based on the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets and certain intangibles
to be disposed of are required to be reported at the lower of carrying amounts
or fair value less cost to sell.
Income Taxes
The accounts of the Central Ohio Cluster are included in the consolidated
federal income tax return and certain state income tax returns of CEI. Current
federal and state income tax expenses and benefits have been allocated on a
separate return basis to the Central Ohio Cluster based on the current year tax
effects of the inclusion of its income, expenses and credits in the consolidated
income tax returns of CEI or based on separate state income tax returns.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities arise from temporary differences in
the financial reporting and income tax basis of assets and liabilities. These
differences primarily result from property and intangible assets.
Fees and Taxes
The Central Ohio Cluster incurs various fees and taxes in connection with the
operations of its cable television systems, including franchise fees paid to
various franchise authorities, copyright fees paid to the U.S. Copyright
Tribunal and business and franchise taxes paid to the State of Ohio. A portion
of these fees and taxes are passed through to the Central Ohio Cluster's
subscribers. Amounts collected from subscribers are recorded as a reduction of
operating expenses.
Pension, Postretirement and Postemployment Benefits
CCI generally provides defined pension benefits to substantially all employees
based on years of service and compensation during those years. CCI also provides
certain health care and life insurance benefits to substantially all retirees
and employees through certain CEI plans. Expense related to the CCI and CEI
plans is allocated to the Central Ohio Cluster through the intercompany account.
The amount of the allocations is generally based on actuarial determinations of
the effects of the Central Ohio Cluster employees' participation in the plans.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
The unaudited combined financial statements as of and for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 and 1996, in the opinion of management, include all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a
fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for this
period. Operating results for nine months ended September 30, 1997 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year.
(3) CASH MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The Central Ohio Cluster participates in CEI's cash management system, whereby
the bank sends daily notification of checks presented for payment. CEI transfers
funds from other sources to cover the checks presented for payment.

(7) RETIREMENT PLANS
Qualified Pension Plan
Effective January 1, 1996, CCI established the Cox Communications, Inc. Pension
Plan (the "CCI Plan"), a qualified noncontributory defined benefit pension plan
for substantially all of CCI's employees including the Central Ohio Cluster's
employees. Plan assets consist primarily of common stock, investment-

(7) RETIREMENT PLANS (CONTINUED)
grade corporate bonds, cash and cash equivalents and U.S. government
obligations. The CCI Plan calls for benefits to be paid to eligible employees at
retirement based primarily upon years of service with CCI and compensation rates
near retirement. The funded status of the portion of the CCI Plan covering the
employees of the Central Ohio Cluster is not determinable. The fair value of the
CCI Plan assets was greater than the projected benefit obligation as of December
31, 1996.
Total pension expense attributable to the Central Ohio Cluster employees'
participation in the CCI Plan was $33,000 for the nine month period ended
September 30, 1997 and $158,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996.
The assumptions used in the actuarial computations at December 31, 1996 were:
Discount rate 7.75%
Rate of increase in compensation levels 5.50%
Expected long-term rate of return on plan assets 9.00%
Other Retirement Plans
CEI provides certain health care and life insurance benefits to substantially
all retirees of CEI and its subsidiaries. Postretirement expense allocated to
the Central Ohio Cluster by CEI was $13,000 for the nine month period ended
September 30, 1997 and $15,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996. CEI has
been contributing additional amounts to the Cox Pension Plan Trust to fund
health care benefits pursuant to Section 401(h) of the Internal Revenue Code.
CEI is funding benefits to the extent contributions are tax deductible. In
general, retiree health benefits are paid as covered expenses are incurred. The
funded status of the postretirement plan covering the employees of the Central
Ohio Cluster is not determinable. The accumulated postretirement benefit
obligation for the postretirement plan of CEI substantially exceeded the fair
value of assets held in the Cox Pension Plan Trust at December 31, 1996.
In addition, substantially all of Central Ohio Cluster's employees are eligible
to participate in the savings and investment plan of CEI. Under the terms of the
plan, the Central Ohio Cluster matches 50% of employee contributions up to a
maximum of 6% of the employee's base salary. The Central Ohio Cluster's expense
under the plan was $57,000 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1997
and $83,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996.
(8) TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED COMPANIES
The Central Ohio Cluster borrows funds for working capital and other needs from
CCI. Certain management services are provided to the Central Ohio Cluster by CCI
and CEI. Such services include legal, corporate secretarial, tax, treasury,
internal audit, risk management, benefits administration and other support
services. The Central Ohio Cluster was allocated expenses for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 and for the year ended December 31, 1996 of
approximately of $604,000 and $1,320,000, respectively, related to these
services. Allocated expenses are based on management's estimate of expenses
related to the services provided to the Central Ohio Cluster in relation to
those provided to other divisions of CCI and CEI. Management believes that these
allocations were made on a reasonable basis. However, the allocations are not
necessarily indicative of the level of expenses that might have been incurred
had the Central Ohio Cluster contracted directly with third parties. Management
has not made a

study or any attempt to obtain quotes from third parties to determine what the
cost of obtaining such services from third parties would have been. The fees and
expenses to be paid by the Central Ohio Cluster various transactions, including
those described above. At December 31, 1996 and September 30, 1997, outstanding
amounts due to affiliates bear interest at fifty basis points above CCI's
commercial paper borrowings. This rate as of September 30, 1997 and December 31,
1996 was 6.32% and 6.6%, respectively.
In accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair
Value of Financial Instruments," the Central Ohio Cluster has estimated the fair
value of its intercompany advances and notes payable. Given the short-term
nature of these advances, the carrying amounts reported in the statements of net
assets approximate fair value.
(9) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Central Ohio Cluster leases office facilities and various items of equipment
under noncancelable operating leases. Rental expense under operating leases
amounted to $259,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 1997 and
$331,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996. Future minimum lease payments as
of September 30, 1997 for all noncancelable operating leases are as follows:

The FCC has adopted rate regulations required by the Cable Television Consumer
Protection and Competition Act of 1992 (the "1992 Cable Act"). Beginning in
September 1995, the FCC authorized a method of implementing rate adjustments
which allows cable operators to increase rates for programming annually on the
basis of proposed increases in external costs rather than on the basis of cost
increases incurred in the preceding quarter. Local franchising authorities have
the ability to obtain certification from the FCC to regulate rates charged by
the Central Ohio Cluster for basic cable services and associated basic cable
services equipment. In addition, the rates charged by the Central Ohio Cluster
for cable programming services ("CPS") can be regulated by the FCC should any
franchising authority of the Central Ohio Cluster file rate complaints with the
FCC. To date, the local franchising authorities for the Central Ohio Cluster
have not become certified by the FCC to regulate rates for basic cable service
and associated basic cable services equipment and no complaints have been filed
by customers with the FCC regarding rates charged for CPS. Though rates for
basic and CPS are presently not regulated, management of the Central Ohio
Cluster believes the rates charged for basic and CPS comply in all material
respects with the 1992 Cable Act and that should such rates become regulated in
the future the impact on the financial position and results of operation of the
Central Ohio Cluster would not be material.

PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION.
PRO FORMA FINANCIAL DATA
The unaudited pro forma financial data presented below are derived from the
historical financial statements of FrontierVision Holdings, L.P. ("Holdings" or
the "Company") and certain cable television systems assets purchased from Cox
Communications, Inc. in central Ohio (the "Acquisition System") on December 19,
1997. The unaudited pro forma balance sheet data as of September 30, 1997 give
pro forma effect to the Acquisition System as if such transaction had been
consummated on September 30, 1997. The unaudited pro forma consolidated
statement of operations data for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and
for the year ended December 31, 1996 give pro forma effect to the Acquisition
System as if such transaction had been consummated on January 1, 1996.
The unaudited pro forma financial data give effect to the Acquisition described
above under the purchase method of accounting and are based upon the assumptions
and adjustments described in the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma
financial statements presented on the following pages. The allocation of the
total purchase price for the Acquisition System presented is based on a
preliminary estimate and is subject to a final allocation adjustment.
The unaudited pro forma financial data presented do not consider any future
events which may have occurred after the Acquisition was consummated. The
Company believes revenue and operating expense synergies and purchasing and
other cost reductions of the combined operations of the existing systems and the
Acquisition System will be realized after the Company has installed its
management controls, systems and marketing programs. However, for purposes of
the unaudited pro forma financial data presented herein, these synergies have
not been reflected because their realization cannot be assured.
The unaudited pro forma financial data do not purport to represent what the
Company's results of operations or financial condition would have actually been
or what operations would be if the transaction that gives rise to the pro forma
adjustments had occurred on the date assumed. The unaudited pro forma financial
data presented below should be read in conjunction with the audited and
unaudited historical financial statements and related notes thereto of Holdings
and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" (as included in Holdings' Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 (File No. 333-36519)) as well as in conjunction
with the audited and unaudited historical financial statements and related notes
thereto of the Acquisition System included elsewhere in this Form 8-K/A.

Footnotes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Statement of Operations
For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997
and the Year Ended December 31, 1996
(In Thousands)
(a) Represents the anticipated increase in programming costs for the Acquisition
System of $515 and $915 for September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996,
respectively, based on the Company's current negotiated programming contracts,
offset partially by the estimated cost savings of $45 for September 30, 1997,
resulting from the elimination of duplicative functions attributable to the
Acquisition System.
(b) Represents the elimination of management fees and allocated overhead costs
of $604 and $1,320 for Septemer 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively,
and the inclusion of the Company's estimated incremental overhead cost of $319
and $397 for September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, attributable to the
Acquisition Systems.
(c) Represents the additional depreciation and amortization expense arising from
the purchase of the Acquisition System as if such acquisition had occurred on
January 1, 1996. Pro forma depreciation and amortization is calculated on a
straight-line basis over periods that are consistent with the Company's stated
accounting policy. The cost basis of the purchased assets utilized in these
calculations is based on a preliminary asset allocation between property and
equipment and intangible assets and is subject to a final allocation adjustment.
(d) Represents the net adjustment to (i) record interest expense on the
incremental indebtedness needed to purchase the Acquisition System and (ii)
reverse the historical interest expense of the Acquisition System. Adjustments
to interest expense are calculated as if all indebtedness had been outstanding
since January 1, 1996 with interest accruing at rates as follows: 8.48% and
8.47% weighted average interest rate on borrowings under the Company's Senior
Credit Facility at September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively, 11.0%
for $200,000 of FVOP Notes, 11.875% for $150,545 of Discount Notes, and 11.5%
for the UVC Note of $8,845 and $8,124 at September 30, 1997 and December 31,
1996, respectively. A 1/8% change in the assumed interest rate would result in a
$688 and $752 change to the Company's pro forma net loss for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 and for the year ended December 31, 1996, respectively.
(e) Represents adjustments to reverse the provision of income taxes. Holdings is
structured as a partnership, and accordingly, is not subject to income taxes.
