ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
Also on January 20, 1995, Tele-Communications of Northwest Arkansas
Limited Partnership ("TCNA LP") entered into an asset purchase agreement (as
amended, the "Fayetteville Agreement") with Time Warner Entertainment Company,
L.P. ("Time Warner"), through its division Time Warner Cable Ventures pursuant
to which TCNA LP would acquire the assets of, and assume certain liabilities
related to, the operation of cable television systems (the "Fayetteville
System") in and around the following cities in Arkansas: Fayetteville, Elkins,
Farmington, Greenland, and unincorporated areas of Washington County (the
"Fayetteville Transaction").
TCA Cable TV, Inc. (the "Company") indirectly through various
subsidiaries (i) is an 80% limited partner of TCNA LP and (ii) (A) owns a 49%
limited partnership interest in the 20% general partner of TCNA LP and (B) owns
49% of the 51% general partner of the 20% general partner of TCNA LP.
The Fayetteville Transaction was consummated on May 9, 1995.
The assets acquired in the Fayetteville Transaction included, with
certain exceptions as set forth in the Fayetteville Agreement, all of the
assets and properties, real and personal, tangible and intangible, used by Time
Warner in its operation of the Fayetteville System. TCNA LP intends to
continue to use such assets to provide cable television services to the
subscribers in the Fayetteville System. As part of the Fayetteville
Transaction, Time Warner entered into a noncompetition agreement, pursuant to
which Time Warner agreed, with certain specified exceptions, not to own or
provide service to any cable system or other entity engaged in the use of a
competing technology, broadcast television or newspaper publishing that
provides services to customers within 50 miles of the location of the headend
of the Fayetteville System.
The aggregate consideration paid in the Fayetteville Transaction was
approximately $39,225,000, subject to certain post closing adjustments as set
forth in the Fayetteville Agreement. The acquisition consideration for the
Fayetteville Transaction were determined by negotiations between the parties to
the agreement.
To the best knowledge of the Company, there is no material
relationship between Time Warner and the Company, or any of its affiliates, any
director or officer of the Company, or any associate of such director or
officer.
The primary sources of funds used in the Fayetteville Transaction were
unsecured loans extended by NationsBank of Texas, N.A. and Texas Commerce Bank,
N.A. to the Company and subsequent loans and capital contributions from
subsidiaries of the Company to TCNA LP.

Attn: Mr. Robert McMillian
Mr. Fred Nichols
RE: ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT DATED JANUARY 20, 1995 (AS
AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, THE "AGREEMENT") BETWEEN
TELE-COMMUNICATIONS OF NORTHWEST ARKANSAS LIMITED
PARTNERSHIP ("TCNA") AND TIME WARNER ENTERTAINMENT
COMPANY, L.P., THROUGH ITS DIVISION TIME WARNER CABLE
VENTURES ("TWE")
Dear Messrs. McMillian and Nichols:
TCNA and TWE entered into the Agreement with the understanding that
the transactions contemplated by the Agreement (the "Fayetteville Transaction")
and the Russellville Transaction be consummated simultaneously and not
independently. Notwithstanding the foregoing, TCNA desires to consummate the
Fayetteville Transaction subsequent to consummation of the Russellville
Transaction.
To induce TWE into consummating the Fayetteville Transaction
subsequent to the Russellville Transaction, TCNA hereby warrants to TWE and to
Tele-Communications of Arkansas Limited Partnership that TCNA shall consummate
the Fayetteville Transaction upon receipt by TWE of FCC approval of the
transfer of Cable Television Relay Service Station License WLY-234 to TCNA (the
"CARS License Transfer Date").
In reliance upon such warranties of TCNA, and in consideration of the
mutual covenants stated in this letter, TWE has agreed to execute this letter
and consummate the Fayetteville Transaction subsequent to consummation of the
Russellville Transaction. Accordingly, this letter shall amend the terms and
conditions of the Agreement to the extent set forth below. Unless otherwise
defined herein, capitalized terms shall have the meanings assigned to them in
the Agreement.

the phrases "antennae," and "earth satellite receive stations
and related equipment,".
(3) Section 2.1(d) of the Agreement shall be amended by deleting
the phrase "domestic satellite receive only (TVRO),".
(4) Section 2.2 of the Agreement shall be amended by deleting the

improvements thereon) included in the Assets, which comprise
all material items of tangible personal property and real
property used by Seller to operate the System as currently

the conditions to Closing contained in Sections 7.1(e), (h),
(j), (m) and (n) have been fully satisfied and further
acknowledge that the conditions to Closing contained in
Sections 7.1(i) and (k) have been fully satisfied, except for

(10) Section 8.1 of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety
and replaced with the following:
"Section 8.1 Closing: Time and Place. The closing of the

hold harmless TCNA from and against any and all Losses
incurred by TCNA arising out of or resulting from any material

indemnification shall be limited to and governed by the
indemnification provisions contained in Sections 11.3, 11.4,
11.5 and 11.6 of the Agreement. From and after Closing, TCNA

to and governed by the indemnification provisions contained in
Sections 11.3, 11.4, 11.5 and 11.6 of the Agreement.

January 21, 1992 and Amendment to Franchise Agreement dated
February 21, 1992 (the "Fayetteville Franchise"), to TCNA in
