The cable televisionsystems represent approximately 6,500 basic subscribers and were owned bySouthland Cablevision, Inc. ("Southland") and TCI Cablevision of Georgia, Inc.("TCI"). The assets were acquired on February 29, 1996 and March 1, 1996 for thepurchase prices of 3,710,000 and 6,527,530 for the Southland and TCI systems,respectively. Of the total 3,710,000 purchase price, Southland received 2,640,000 on February 29, 1996 and 770,000 on March 1, 1996. Under the termsof a subordinated, non-interest bearing hold-back note, the balance of 300,000will be payable to Southland 180 days after the closing date, net of anypurchase price adjustments. Of the 6,527,530 purchase price, TCI was paid 6,201,155 on March 1, 1996. The balance due of 326,375 was deposited into anescrow account payable to TCI, due no later than 120 days after the closingdate, net of any purchase adjustments. The purchase price is based on Sellers'representations as to monthly revenues and the number of basic subscribers as ofthe closing date. There is no material relationship between the Registrant andthe Sellers or any of their affiliates, directors, officers, or associates.FINANCINGThe purchase was financed by borrowings under the Registrant's term loanfacility. At the time of this filing, the balance under the credit facility is 26,400,000. The interest rates on the credit facility are as follows: 7,300,000 fixed at 8.34% under the terms of an interest rate swap agreementwith the Registrant's lender expiring January 16, 1998; 8,091,000 fixed at7.40% under the terms of a self-amortizing interest rate swap agreement expiringCopyright 2012 www.secdatabase.com.

September 30, 1996; 10,000,000 fixed at 8.42% under the terms of an interestrate swap agreement expiring March 6, 1998; and 1,000,000 fixed at 8.31%expiring April 9, 1996. The balance of 9,000 bears interest at the prime rateplus 1.75% (currently at 10%). The above rates include a margin paid to thelender based on overall leverage, and may increase or decrease as theRegistrant's leverage fluctuates.PROFILE OF THE VIDALIA SYSTEMThe Vidalia systems serve the incorporated communities of Vidalia, Lyons,Higgston, Santa Claus and nearby unincorporated areas of Toombs County andMontgomery County, all in the state of Georgia.Vidalia is located approximately 180 miles southeast of Atlanta and 95miles west of Savannah. It is the home of the Vidalia Sweet Onion. Nearby Lyonsis the county seat of Toombs County.23EFFECTS OF REGULATIONOn October 5, 1992, Congress enacted the Cable Television ConsumerProtection and Competition Act of 1992 (the "1992 Act"). The 1992 Actsubstantially reregulated the cable television industry and imposed numerousrequirements, including provisions subjecting rates for certain services andequipment to regulation by the applicable local franchising authority and by theFederal Communications Commission ("FCC"), exclusive programming arrangements,the carriage of broadcast signals, customer service standards, leased accesschannels, customer premises equipment compatibility and various other matters.On April 1, 1993, the FCC announced the adoption of rate regulations whichbecame effective September 1, 1993. Under those initial regulations, rates wereevaluated against "competitive benchmarks" and were generally subject torollbacks if they exceeded the benchmark levels. On February 22, 1994, the FCCsubstantially revised the rate regulation rules to effect further ratereductions effective May 15, 1994, or later in certain circumstances, based oncomplex formulas and revised benchmarks.All of the Registrant's cable systems are potentially subject to rateregulation. The 1992 Act (i) requires the FCC to establish rate standards forbasic cable service rates which may be regulated by the applicable localfranchising authority, (ii) requires the FCC, upon receipt of a complaint, toreview rates for additional tiers of cable service, (iii) regulates rates formandatorily offered commercial leased access channels and (iv) eliminates theautomatic five percent annual increase for basic rates allowed under prior law.Rates for channels offered on a per-channel basis as individual purchase optionsand pay-per-view events are excluded from rate regulation.Basic service rates, including the equipment used to receive basic service,may be regulated by a local franchising authority once it has been "certified"by the FCC. When the certification becomes effective, the local franchiseauthority may request the cable operator to justify its existing rates chargedfor basic service and related equipment ("request for justification" or "RFJ").Rates charged in excess of the maximum allowable rates determined under FCCregulations are subject to refund for the period in which the excess rates werecharged or one year, whichever is shorter. Additional tiers of service aresubject to regulation only upon an appropriately filed complaint to the FCC byany subscriber, franchising authority or other person ("subscriber complaints").If no subscriber complaints are filed within 45 days of a change in the FCCregulated rates, such rates are not subject to challenge unless and until thecable operator seeks to modify them. Refund liability, if any, generally wouldbe limited to any incremental increase in rates. In late 1994, the FCC revisedits rules to permit cable operators to offer New Product Tiers at rates whichthey elect so long as, among other conditions, other channels that are subjectto rate regulation are priced in conformity with applicable regulations andcable operators do not remove programming services from existing service tiersand offer them on the New Product Tier.On May 5, 1995, the FCC announced the adoption of a simplified set ofalternative rate regulation rules that will apply to "small" cable systems,defined as a system serving 15,000 or fewer subscribers, that are owned by"small" companies, defined as a company serving 400,000 or fewer subscribers.Under the FCC's definition, the Registrant is a "small" company and each of theRegistrant's cable systems are "small" systems. Maximum permitted rates underthese revised rules are dependent on several factors including the number ofregulated channels offered, net asset basis of plant and equipment used toCopyright 2012 www.secdatabase.com.

deliver regulated services, the number of subscribers served and a reasonablerate of return.34As of the date of this filing, the Registrant has received notificationthat local franchising authorities with jurisdiction over approximately 22% ofthe Registrant's subscribers have elected to certify, no RFJ's have beenreceived from franchise authorities and three subscriber complaints have beenfiled in systems representing 8% of the Registrant's total subscribers. Based onmanagement's analysis, the rates charged by these systems are within the maximumrates allowed under FCC rate regulations.On February 8, 1996, the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the 1996 Act)became law. The 1996 Act will eliminate all rate controls on cable programmingservice tiers of small cable systems, defined by the 1996 Act as systems servingfewer than 50,000 subscribers owned by operators serving fewer than 1% of allsubscribers in the United States (approximately 600,000 subscribers). All of thePartnership's cable systems qualify as small cable systems. Many of the changescalled for by the 1996 Act will not take effect until the FCC issues newregulations, a process that could take from several months to a few yearsdepending on the complexity of the required changes and the statutory timelimits. Because of this, the full impact of the 1996 Act on the Partnership'soperations cannot be determined at this time.45SUBSCRIBER SUMMARY(As of March 1, 1996) TABLE CAPTION SOUTHLAND-------- C TCI-- C Estimated Homes Passed:4,5007,500Basic Subscribers:2,6753,823 S % of Homes Passed59%Pay al53114480170925% of Basic /TABLE 35%51%1,4156301,046377443,872102%CURRENT RATES(excluding franchise fees, including sales tax) TABLE S BasicHBOCinemaxDisneyShowtimeStarzEncore C 18.757.956.955.005.00- C 14.5011.9510.958.954.751.75InstallationReconnect feeTransfer feeInstall extra right 2012 www.secdatabase.com.
