ITEM 8. IDENTIFICATION AND CLASSIFICATION OF MEMBERS OF THE GROUP.
Curtis Rochelle is the beneficial owner of 41,250 shares of Class A Common Stock
(assumes the exercise of options for 41,250 shares) and 25,000 shares of Class A
Common Stock and 998,470 shares of Class B Common Stock, which are held in the
name of Curtis Rochelle Trust of which he is the Trustee. Such beneficial
ownership does not include 15,620 shares of Class A Common Stock and 111,804
shares of Class B Common Stock held by his spouse, Marian Rochelle. Jim Rochelle
and Kathleen Jaure each received their shares of Class B Common Stock identified
in this Schedule 13G, as amended, from an affiliate of Curtis Rochelle, but Mr.
Rochelle has retained no beneficial ownership interest in such shares.
Pursuant to the terms of that certain Stockholders' Agreement, dated April 13,
1993 (the "Stockholders' Agreement"), by and among Cable Acquisition Corp.,
Albert M. Carollo, William J. Elsner, L. Flinn, Jr. Family Limited Partnership,
Lawrence Flinn, Jr., Joseph E. Giovanini, Clarice J. Giovanini, Giovanini
Investments, Ltd., Curtis Rochelle, Marian Rochelle, Rochelle Investments, Ltd.,
Gene W. Schneider, G. Schneider Holdings, Mark Schneider, Janet S. Schneider
(collectively, the "Founders"), Apollo Cable Partners, L.P. ("Apollo") and the
Issuer, Apollo and the Founders have agreed to vote in favor of three persons
nominated to be directors by Apollo and nine persons nominated to be directors
by the Founders in the elections of directors of the Issuer. The number of
persons Apollo and the Founders are entitled to nominate for election as
directors is subject to reduction for each group if the percentage of the
Issuer's voting securities beneficially owned by it is reduced below certain
levels. These director nomination rights expire on April 12, 2003, unless
earlier terminated by the agreement of Apollo and the Founders. A copy of the
Stockholders' Agreement can be found at Exhibit 10.16 to the Issuer's
Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 33-61376) filed with Securities and
Exchange Commission on April 21, 1993.
To the best knowledge of each Reporting Person, L. Flinn, Jr. Family Limited
Partnership and Lawrence Flinn, Jr. transferred all their shares in the Issuer
and ceased to be parties to the Stockholders Agreement. In 1997, DLF Partners
and Lawrence F. DeGeorge became parties to the Stockholders Agreement as
Founders upon acquiring all the shares held by Cable Acquisition Corporation.
Some of the Founders have transferred all or a portion of their shares of the
Issuer to the following persons: Albert & Carolyn Company, James R. Carollo
Living Trust, John B. Carollo Living Trust, Giovanini Properties, Curtis
Rochelle Trust, Jim Rochelle, Kathleen Jaure, the Revocable Trust of Janet
Schneider, Susan G. Schneider and Robert A. Schneider. As a result of these
transfers, the transferees became subject to the Stockholders' Agreement as
Founders. William J. Elsner, Joseph E. Giovanini, Clarice J. Giovanini,
Giovanini Investments, Ltd., and Giovanini Properties ceased to be parties to
the Stockholders Agreement upon the sale of substantially all of their shares of
Common Stock of the Issuer through a secondary offering on July 16, 1998. As a
result of these transactions, the current parties to the Stockholders Agreement
are the Issuer, Apollo, and Albert M. Carollo, Carollo Company, Albert & Carolyn
Company, James R. Carollo Living Trust, John B. Carollo Living Trust, DLF
Partners, Lawrence F. DeGeorge, Kathleen Jaure, Curtis Rochelle, Curtis Rochelle
Trust, Jim Rochelle, Marian Rochelle, Gene W. Schneider, G. Schneider Holdings,
Mark Schneider, the Revocable Trust of Janet Schneider, Susan G. Schneider and
Robert A. Schneider as Founders.
The Issuer's Board of Directors is currently composed of ten members, eight of
whom may be deemed to have been nominated by the Founders and two of which may
be deemed to have been nominated by Apollo.
There are no other agreements among the Reporting Persons and any other Founder
or Apollo with respect to the voting of the Issuer's securities.
To the best of each Reporting Person's knowledge, the Founders and Apollo
beneficially owned as of December 31, 1998, a total of 10,440,097 shares of the
Class A Common Stock (assuming the conversion of 9,608,136 shares of Class B
Common Stock for 9,608,136 shares of Class A Common Stock and includes 572,583
shares that would be acquired upon exercise of presently exercisable options).
As a result of voting provisions of the Stockholders' Agreement, the Founders
and Apollo may be deemed to be a "group" for purposes of Rule 13d-3 and each
member of such "group" may be deemed to beneficially own shares of the Issuer's
stock held by the other members of such "group." Pursuant to Rule 13d-4, each of
the Reporting Persons hereby disclaims beneficial ownership for purposes of
Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, of
the shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock held by any other
Founder, Apollo or their transferees.
