ENSTAR INCOME/GROWTH PROGRAM FIVE-A, L.P.
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

1. INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying condensed interim financial statements for Enstar Income/Growth Program Five-A, L.P. (the Partnership) as of June 30, 2003, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, are unaudited. These condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. In the opinion of management, the condensed interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of such periods. The changes in net assets in liquidation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year.

The Partnership and an affiliated partnership, Enstar Income/Growth Program Five-B, L.P. ("Enstar Five-B") (collectively, the "Venturers"), each own 50% of Enstar Cable of Cumberland Valley (the "Joint Venture"). The Partnership did not own or operate any cable television operations in 2003 and 2002 other than through its investment in the Joint Venture.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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. These estimates include useful lives of property, plant and equipment, valuation of long-lived assets and allocated operating costs. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

As discussed in Note 2, the financial statements as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 are presented on a liquidation basis of accounting which provides for assets to be stated at estimated realizable values and liabilities to be reflected at estimated settlement amounts. Accordingly, the financial information in the condensed statements of net assets in liquidation and changes in net assets in liquidation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 is presented on a different basis of accounting than the financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, which are prepared on the historical cost basis of accounting which assume realization of assets and payments of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. As a result, depreciation and amortization ceased upon conversion to liquidation accounting and capital expenditures are expensed as incurred.

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform to current period presentation.

2. LIQUIDATION ACCOUNTING AND SALES OF CABLE SYSTEMS

Enstar Communications Corporation (ECC), the Corporate General Partner, continues to operate the Joint Venture's Pomme de Terre, Missouri cable television system, the Partnership's only remaining system, during the divestiture transactions for the benefit of the unit holders.

In March 2003, a majority of the Limited Partners of the Venturers approved the sale of the Joint Venture's final cable systems and a plan of liquidation of the Joint Venture and the Partnerships. On March 31, 2003, pursuant to an asset purchase agreement dated September 30, 2002, the Joint Venture completed the sale of headends in and around Monticello, Kentucky to Access Cable Television, Inc. for a total sale price of approximately $6 million. Also on March 31, 2003, pursuant to an asset purchase agreement dated October 8, 2002, the Joint Venture completed the sale of headends in and around Russell Springs, Kentucky to Cumberland Cellular, Inc. (collectively with the Monticello headend, the "Monticello System") for a total sale price of approximately $3 million.

In 1999, the Corporate General Partner sought purchasers for all of the cable television systems of the Partnership and other affiliated Partnerships of which the Corporate General Partner is also the general partner. This effort was undertaken primarily because, based on the Corporate General Partner's experience in the cable television industry, it was concluded that generally applicable market conditions and competitive factors were making (and would increasingly make) it extremely difficult for smaller operators of rural cable systems (such as the Partnership and the other affiliated partnerships) to effectively compete and be financially successful. This determination was based on the anticipated cost of electronics and additional equipment to enable the Joint Venture's systems to operate on a two-way basis with improved technical capacity, insufficiency of Joint Venture's cash reserves and cash flows from operations to finance such expenditures, limited customer growth potential due to the Joint Venture's systems' rural location, and a general inability of a small cable system operator such as the Joint Venture to benefit from economies of scale and the ability to combine and integrate systems that large cable operators have. Although, certain limited upgrades have been made, the Corporate General Partner projected that if the Joint Venture made the additional comprehensive upgrades deemed necessary, the Joint Venture would not recoup the costs or regain its ability to operate profitably within the remaining term of its franchises, and as a result, making these upgrades would not be economically prudent.

After setting aside $500,000 to fund the Pomme de Terre, Missouri system's working capital needs for the foreseeable future, and paying or providing for the payment of the expenses of the sale, the Corporate General Partner will make one or more distributions of the Partnership's allocable share of the remaining net sale proceeds, in accordance with the partnership agreement. The Partnership made an initial distribution payment to the partners of approximately $4.6 million in July 2003.

On November 8, 2002, the Joint Venture entered into an asset purchase agreement providing for the sale of the Pomme de Terre, Missouri headend to Telecommunications Management, LLC (Telecommunications Management) for a total sale price of approximately $502,800 (approximately $599 per customer acquired). This sale is a part of a larger transaction in which the Joint Venture and eight other affiliated partnerships (which, together with the Joint Venture are collectively referred to as the "Selling Partnerships") would sell all of their remaining assets used in the operation of their respective cable systems to Telecommunications Management for a total cash sale price of approximately $15,341,600 (before adjustments) (the Telecommunications Management Sale). The Telecommunications Management Sale is subject to the approval of the unit holders of the other Selling Partnerships. In addition, the transaction is subject to certain closing conditions, including regulatory and franchise approvals. As of December 31, 2002, the Pomme de Terre system had approximately 6% of the total subscribers in the Joint Venture's systems. The Partnership Agreement gives the general partners the authority to sell insubstantial portions of the property and assets of the Partnership without unit holder approval.

On February 6, 2003, the Partnership entered into a side letter amending the asset purchase agreement providing for the sale of all of its cable systems to Telecommunications Management. The February 6, 2003 side letter amends the asset purchase agreement and Deposit Escrow Agreement to extend the date of the second installment of the deposit and the Outside Closing Date each by 60 days. On April 7, 2003, the second installment of the escrow deposit was due and was not made.

On April 24, 2003, the Partnership entered into another side letter amending the asset purchase agreement providing for the sale of all of its cable systems to Telecommunications Management. The April 24, 2003 side letter amends the asset purchase agreement and Deposit Escrow Agreement to extend the date of the second installment of the deposit to May 15, 2003 and the Outside Closing Date to September 30, 2003.

On June 6, 2003, the Partnership entered into a third side letter amending the asset purchase agreement providing for the sale of all of its cable systems to Telecommunications Management. The June 6, 2003 side letter amends the asset purchase agreement to reduce the purchase price of the remaining cable systems in the Selling Partnerships to approximately $14,487,200 subject to closing sale price adjustments, of which approximately $461,500 relates to the remaining cable systems in the Partnership. In addition, $250,000 was deposited in the Deposit Escrow Account concurrent with the execution of the side letter.

The Partnership finalized its proposed plan of liquidation on November 30, 2002 in connection with the filing of a proxy to obtain partner approval for the sale of the Joint Venture's final cable systems and the subsequent liquidation and dissolution of the Joint Venture and the Partnership. In March 2003, the required number of votes necessary to implement the plan of liquidation were obtained. As a result, the Partnership changed its basis of accounting to the liquidation basis as of November 30, 2002. Accordingly, the assets in the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 have been stated at estimated realizable values and the liabilities have been reflected at estimated settlement amounts. The change to liquidation basis accounting resulted in an increase to equity in net assets of joint venture of $1.6 million. In addition, estimated accrued costs of liquidation of $23,200 were recorded in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as an estimate of costs to be incurred subsequent to the sales of the systems but prior to final dissolution of the Partnership. Distributions ultimately made to the partners upon liquidation will differ from the amounts recorded in the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation of the Partnership as a result of adjustments recorded to the realizable value of the assets of the Joint Venture and adjustments if any to estimated costs of liquidation. No adjustments were made to estimated costs of liquidation during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003.

The Corporate General Partner's intention is to settle the outstanding obligations of the Partnership and terminate the Partnership as expeditiously as possible. Final dissolution of the Partnership and related cash distributions to the partners will occur upon obtaining final resolution of all liquidation issues.

3. TRANSACTIONS WITH THE GENERAL PARTNERS AND AFFILIATES

The Partnership has a management and service agreement (the Management Agreement) with Enstar Cable Corporation (Enstar Cable), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporate General Partner, for a monthly management fee of 5% of gross revenues. No management fees were paid by the Partnership during 2003 and 2002.

Enstar Cable has entered into an identical agreement with Enstar Cable of Cumberland Valley (the Joint Venture), a Georgia general partnership, of which the Partnership is a joint venturer and co-general partner, except that the Joint Venture pays Enstar Cable a 4% management fee. The Joint Venture's management fee expense approximated $3,000 and $64,200 for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and $60,800 and $128,100 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. In addition, the Joint Venture is also required to distribute to ECC an amount equal to 1% of the Joint Venture's gross revenues. The Joint Venture's management fee expense to ECC approximated $800 and $16,100 during the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and $15,200 and $32,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. No management fee is payable to Enstar Cable by the Partnership with respect to any amounts received by the Partnership from the Joint Venture. Management fees are non- interest bearing.

The Management Agreement also provides that the Partnership reimburse Enstar Cable for direct expenses incurred on behalf of the Partnership and the Partnership's allocable share of Enstar Cable's operational costs. Additionally, Charter Communications Holding Company, LLC, a direct parent of ECC, and its affiliates (collectively, Charter) provide other management and operational services for the Partnership and the Joint Venture. These expenses are charged to the properties served based primarily on the Partnership's or Joint Venture's allocable share of operational costs associated with the services provided. The Partnership and the Joint Venture reimburse the affiliates for the Partnership's and the Joint Venture's allocable share of the affiliates' costs. The total amount charged to the Joint Venture for these costs approximated $24,900 and $177,600 for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and $183,800 and $359,200 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Substantially all programming services are purchased through Charter. Charter charges the Joint Venture for these costs based on an allocation of its costs. The Joint Venture recorded programming fee expense of $18,400 and $312,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and $323, 200 and $630,600 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Programming fees are included in service costs in the accompanying condensed statements of changes in net assets in liquidation and statements of operations.

As disclosed in Charter's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the parent of the Corporate General Partner and the Manager is the defendant in twenty-two class action and shareholder lawsuits and is the subject of a grand jury investigation being conducted by the United States Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Missouri and an SEC investigation. The United States Attorney's office has publicly stated that Charter is not currently a target of the investigation. Charter has also been advised by the United States Attorney's office that no member of its board of directors, including its Chief Executive Officer, is a target of the investigation. On July 24, 2003, a federal grand jury charged four former officers of Charter with conspiracy and mail and wire fraud, alleging improper accounting and reporting practices focusing on revenue from digital set-top terminal suppliers and inflated subscriber account numbers. On July 25, 2003, one of the former officers who was indicted entered a guilty plea. Charter has informed the Corporate General partner that they are fully cooperating with the investigation.

Charter is unable to predict the outcome of the class action lawsuits and government investigations at this time. An unfavorable outcome of these matters could have a material adverse effect on Charter's results of operations and financial condition, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on the Partnership.

4. NET INCOME PER UNIT OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTEREST

The amended Partnership Agreement generally provides that all cash distributions, as defined, be allocated 1% to the General Partners and 99% to the Limited Partners until the Limited Partners have received aggregate cash distributions equal to their original capital contributions ("Capital Payback"). The Partnership Agreement also provides that all partnership profits, gains, operational losses, and credits, all as defined, be allocated 1% to the General Partners and 99% to the Limited Partners until the Limited Partners have been allocated net profits equal to the amount of cash flow required for Capital Payback. After the Limited Partners have received cash flow equal to their initial investments, the General Partners will only receive a 1% allocation of cash flow from sale or liquidation of a system until the Limited Partners have received an annual simple interest return of at least 10% of their initial investments less any distributions from previous system sales or refinancing of systems. Thereafter, the respective allocations will be made 20% to the General Partners and 80% to the Limited Partners. Any losses from system sales or exchanges shall be allocated first to all partners having positive capital account balances (based on their respective capital accounts) until all such accounts are reduced to zero and thereafter to the Corporate General Partner. All allocations to individual Limited Partners will be based on their respective limited partnership ownership interests.

Upon the disposition of substantially all of the Partnership's assets, gains shall be allocated first to the Limited Partners having negative capital account balances until their capital accounts are increased to zero, next equally among the General Partners until their capital accounts are increased to zero, and thereafter as outlined in the preceding paragraph. Upon dissolution of the Partnership, any negative capital account balances remaining after all allocations and distributions are made must be funded by the respective partners. The Partnership Agreement limits the amount of debt the Partnership may incur.

The Partnership's operating expenses and distributions to partners are funded primarily from distributions received from the Joint Venture.

5. EQUITY IN NET ASSETS OF ENSTAR CABLE OF CUMBERLAND VALLEY (JOINT VENTURE)

Each of the Venturers share equally in the profits and losses of the Joint Venture. The investment in the Joint Venture is accounted for on the equity method. Condensed financial information for the Joint Venture as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 are presented in the following statement of net assets in liquidation and statement of changes in net assets in liquidation. The condensed results of operations is also presented for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002.

The Joint Venture finalized its proposed plan of liquidation on November 30, 2002 in connection with the filing of a proxy to obtain approval of the Limited Partners of the Joint Venturers for the sale of the Joint Venture's final cable systems and the subsequent liquidation and dissolution of the Joint Venture and the Partnership. In March 2003, the required number of votes necessary to implement the plan of liquidation were obtained. As a result, the Joint Venture changed its basis of accounting to the liquidation basis as of November 30, 2002. Accordingly, the assets in the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 have been stated at estimated realizable values and the liabilities have been reflected at estimated settlement amounts. The change to liquidation basis accounting resulted in an increase to property, plant and equipment of $2.9 million and a recognition of an asset for expected operating results for the Monticello system through the date of sale (March 31, 2003) of $454,000. Assets for the Pomme de Terre system were not adjusted as the amounts were not estimable due to uncertainties surrounding the ultimate sale of that system. In addition, estimated accrued costs of liquidation of $100,800 were recorded in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as an estimate of costs to be incurred subsequent to the sales of the systems but prior to final dissolution of the Joint Venture. Distributions ultimately made to the Venturers upon liquidation will differ from the amounts recorded in the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as a result of future operations of the Pomme de Terre system, the sale proceeds ultimately received for the Pomme de Terre system by the Joint Venture and adjustments if any to estimated costs of liquidation. The estimated realizable value of the Monticello system exceeded the proceeds received from the sale of the system by $163,500 primarily as a result of post closing purchase price adjustments. No adjustments were made to estimated costs of liquidation during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003.

The Corporate General Partner's intention is to settle the outstanding obligations of the Partnership and terminate the Partnership as expeditiously as possible. Final dissolution of the Partnership and related cash distributions to the partners will occur upon obtaining final resolution of all liquidation issues.

Distributions from the Joint Venture to the Partnership were $70,000 and $0 during the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and $220,000 and $0 during the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Distributions of $5,750,000 were made from the Joint Venture to the Partnership in July 2003 as an initial distribution of net sales proceeds of the Monticello headend.

6. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In April of 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 149 will not have an impact on the Partnership's financial condition or results of operations.

In May of 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity." SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 will not have an impact on the Partnership's financial condition or results of operations.

 

 

 




ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION

This report includes certain forward-looking statements regarding, among other things, our future results of operations, regulatory requirements, competition, capital needs and general business conditions applicable to us. Such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties including, without limitation, the uncertainty of legislative and regulatory changes and the rapid developments in the competitive environment facing cable television operators such as us. In addition to the information provided herein, reference is made to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002, for additional information regarding such matters and the effect thereof on our business.

All of our cable television business operations are conducted through our participation as a partner with a 50% interest in Enstar Cable of Cumberland Valley (the Joint Venture). Our participation is equal to our affiliated partner (Enstar Income/Growth Program Five-B, L.P.) under the joint venture agreement with respect to capital contributions, obligations and commitments, and results of operations. We have a management and service agreement with Enstar Cable Corporation (Enstar Cable), a wholly owned subsidiary of Enstar Communications Corporation, the Corporate General Partner. Enstar Cable has entered into a similar agreement with the Joint Venture. In considering the financial condition and results of operations for us, consideration must also be made of those matters as they relate to the Joint Venture. The following discussion reflects such consideration, and with respect to results of operations, a separate discussion is provided for each entity.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THE PARTNERSHIP

The Partnership finalized its proposed plan of liquidation on November 30, 2002 in connection with the filing of a proxy to obtain partner approval for the sale of the Joint Venture's final cable systems and the subsequent liquidation and dissolution of the Joint Venture and the Partnership. In March 2003, the required number of votes necessary to implement the plan of liquidation were obtained. As a result, the Partnership changed its basis of accounting to the liquidation basis as of November 30, 2002. Accordingly, the assets in the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 have been stated at estimated realizable values and the liabilities have been reflected at estimated settlement amounts. The change to liquidation basis accounting resulted in an increase to equity in net assets of joint venture of $1.6 million. In addition, estimated accrued costs of liquidation of $23,200 were recorded in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as an estimate of costs to be incurred subsequent to the sales of the systems but prior to final dissolution of the Partnership. Distributions ultimately made to the partners upon liquidation will differ from the amounts recorded in the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation of the Partnership as a result of adjustments recorded to the realizable value of the assets of the Joint Venture and adjustments if any to estimated costs of liquidation. No adjustments were made to estimated costs of liquidation during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003.

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 are presented on the liquidation basis of accounting and thus are not comparable to the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 which are presented on the historical cost basis.

General and administrative expenses decreased $21,700 from $24,400 to $2,700, or 88.9%, and $21,900 from $36,900 to $15,000, or 59.3%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2002. The decrease for the three and six month period was due to a decline in professional fees.

Other expense of $24,700 and $29,300 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively, represent costs associated with the proposed sale of the Partnership's remaining cable system.

THE JOINT VENTURE

The Joint Venture finalized its proposed plan of liquidation on November 30, 2002 in connection with the filing of a proxy to obtain approval of the Limited Partners of the joint venturers for the sale of the Joint Venture's final cable systems and the subsequent liquidation and dissolution of the Joint Venture and the Partnership. In March 2003, the required number of votes necessary to implement the plan of liquidation were obtained. As a result, the Joint Venture changed its basis of accounting to the liquidation basis as of November 30, 2002. Accordingly, the assets in the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 have been stated at estimated realizable values and the liabilities have been reflected at estimated settlement amounts. The change to liquidation basis accounting resulted in an increase to property, plant and equipment of $2.9 million and a recognition of an asset for expected operating results for the Monticello system through the date of sale (March 31, 2003) of $454,000. Assets for the Pomme de Terre system were not adjusted as the amounts were not estimable due to uncertainties surrounding the ultimate sale of that system. In addition, estimated accrued costs of liquidation of $100,800 were recorded in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as an estimate of costs to be incurred subsequent to the sales of the systems but prior to final dissolution of the Joint Venture. Distributions ultimately made to the Venturers upon liquidation will differ from the amounts recorded in the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as a result of future operations of the Pomme de Terre system, the sale proceeds ultimately received for the Pomme de Terre system by the Joint Venture and adjustments if any to estimated costs of liquidation. The estimated realizable value of the Monticello system exceeded the proceeds received from the sale of the system by $163,500 primarily as a result of post closing purchase price adjustments. No adjustments were made to estimated costs of liquidation during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003.

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 are presented on the liquidation basis of accounting and thus are not comparable to the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 which are presented on the historical cost basis.

The Joint Venture's revenues decreased $1,530,900 from $1,605,900 to $75,000, or 95.3%, and $1,682,300 from $3,203,300 to $1,521,000, or 52.5%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2002. The decrease was primarily due to a decline in the number of basic and premium service customers primarily as a result of the sale of the Monticello system on March 31, 2003. As of June 30, 2003 and 2002, the Joint Venture had approximately 800 and 13,700 basic service customers, respectively, and 100 and 2,200 premium service customers, respectively.

Service costs decreased $532,900 from $583,000 to $50,100, or 91.4%, and $695,500 from $1,158,900 to $463,400, or 60.0%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2002. Service costs represent programming costs and other costs directly attributable to providing cable services to customers. The decrease was primarily due to the sale of the Monticello system on March 31, 2003.

General and administrative expenses decreased $169,200 from $216,800 to $47,600, or 78.0%, and $213,600 from $453,500 to $239,900, or 47.1%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2002. The decrease was primarily due to the sale of the Monticello system on March 31, 2003.

General partner management fees and reimbursed expenses decreased $229,200 from $257,900 to $28,700, or 88.9%, and $259,500 from $519,300 to $259,800, or 50.0%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2002. The decrease was primarily due to the sale of the Monticello system on March 31, 2003.

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased from $463,600 to $0 and from $889,500 to $0 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2002. Depreciation and amortization ceased upon adoption of liquidation basis accounting.

Interest income increased $19,100 from $15,400 to $34,500 and $17,200 from $27,500 to $44,700 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2002. The increase was primarily due to an increase in cash balances available for investment during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the corresponding periods in 2002 due to the investment of proceeds from the sale of the Monticello system on March 31, 2003.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

THE PARTNERSHIP

All of our cable television business operations, which began in January 1988, are conducted through our participation as a partner in the Joint Venture. We did not pay distributions to our partners during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. The Joint Venture paid $70,000 and $220,000 from its operations to us during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively.

Cash and cash equivalents increased $33,000 from $3,400 at December 31, 2002 to $36,400 at June 30, 2003 primarily due to distributions of $220,000 received from the Joint Ventures offset by repayments of $150,000 on the amounts due to affiliates. Amounts due to affiliates at December 31, 2002 primarily represent accrued and unpaid management fees and other allocated expenses accrued since the fourth quarter of 2000. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $1,000 from $1,300 at December 31, 2001 to $300 at June 30, 2002 as a result of $1,000 of cash used by operating activities.

Our primary objective, having invested net offering proceeds in the Joint Venture, is to distribute to our partners all available cash from the sale of the Joint Venture's cable systems and all cash flow, if any, from operations after providing for expenses and any planned capital requirements relating to the expansion, improvement and upgrade of such cable television systems.

An initial cash distribution of $4.6 million was made to the Limited Partners in July 2003 as a result of the cable system sales. Upon completion of the sale of the remaining cable system to Telecommunications Management as discussed herein, the Partnership will be liquidated and all remaining net assets distributed to the Limited Partners and the Corporate General Partner.

THE JOINT VENTURE

Cash generated by operations of the Joint Venture, together with available cash balances will be used to fund any capital expenditures as required by franchise authorities. However, the Joint Venture's cash reserves will be insufficient to fund a comprehensive upgrade program. If the Joint Venture's system is not sold, it will need to rely on increased cash flow from operations or new sources of financing in order to meet its future liquidity requirements. There can be no assurance that such cash flow increases can be attained, or that additional future financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Joint Venture. If the Joint Venture is not able to attain such cash flow increases, or obtain new sources of borrowings, it will not be able to upgrade its cable system. As a result, the value of the Joint Venture's systems would likely be lower than that of systems built to a higher technical standard.

The Joint Venture had capital expenditures of $0 and $37,500 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively and $45,100 and $504,600 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively. The Corporate General Partner has continued to make capital expenditures necessary to maintain compliance with franchise agreements and be economically prudent. In 2002, the Joint Venture commenced a limited plant and technological upgrade to a small system digital solution. This effort was halted in the fourth quarter of 2002 upon entering into the asset purchase agreement with Telecommunications Management.

LIQUIDATION ACCOUNTING AND SALES OF CABLE SYSTEMS

In March 2003, a majority of the Limited Partners of the Venturers approved the sale of the Joint Venture's final cable systems and a plan of liquidation of the Joint Venture and the Partnerships. On March 31, 2003, pursuant to an asset purchase agreement dated September 30, 2002, the Joint Venture completed the sale of headends in and around Monticello, Kentucky to Access Cable Television, Inc. for a total sale price of approximately $6 million. Also on March 31, 2003, pursuant to an asset purchase agreement dated October 8, 2002, the Joint Venture completed the sale of headends in and around Russell Springs, Kentucky to Cumberland Cellular, Inc. (collectively with the Monticello headend, the "Monticello System") for a total sale price of approximately $3 million.

In 1999, the Corporate General Partner sought purchasers for all of the cable television systems of the Partnership and other affiliated Partnerships of which the Corporate General Partner is also the general partner. This effort was undertaken primarily because, based on the Corporate General Partner's experience in the cable television industry, it was concluded that generally applicable market conditions and competitive factors were making (and would increasingly make) it extremely difficult for smaller operators of rural cable systems (such as the Partnership and the other affiliated partnerships) to effectively compete and be financially successful. This determination was based on the anticipated cost of electronics and additional equipment to enable the Joint Venture's systems to operate on a two-way basis with improved technical capacity, insufficiency of Joint Venture's cash reserves and cash flows from operations to finance such expenditures, limited customer growth potential due to the Joint Venture's systems' rural location, and a general inability of a small cable system operator such as the Joint Venture to benefit from economies of scale and the ability to combine and integrate systems that large cable operators have. Although, certain limited upgrades have been made, the Corporate General Partner projected that if the Joint Venture made the additional comprehensive upgrades deemed necessary, the Joint Venture would not recoup the costs or regain its ability to operate profitably within the remaining term of its franchises, and as a result, making these upgrades would not be economically prudent.

After setting aside $500,000 to fund the Pomme de Terre, Missouri system's working capital needs for the foreseeable future, and paying or providing for the payment of the expenses of the sale, the Corporate General Partner will make one or more distributions of the Partnership's allocable share of the remaining net sale proceeds, in accordance with the partnership agreement. The Partnership made an initial distribution payment of approximately $4.6 million in July 2003.

On November 8, 2002, the Joint Venture entered into an asset purchase agreement providing for the sale of the Pomme de Terre, Missouri headend to Telecommunications Management, LLC (Telecommunications Management) for a total sale price of approximately $502,800 (approximately $599 per customer acquired). This sale is a part of a larger transaction in which the Joint Venture and eight other affiliated partnerships (which, together with the Joint Venture are collectively referred to as the "Selling Partnerships") would sell all of their remaining assets used in the operation of their respective cable systems to Telecommunications Management for a total cash sale price of approximately $15,341,600 (before adjustments) (the Telecommunications Management Sale). The Telecommunications Management Sale is subject to the approval of the holders of the other Selling Partnerships. In addition, the transaction is subject to certain closing conditions, including regulatory and franchise approvals. As of December 31, 2002, the Pomme de Terre system had approximately 6% of the total subscribers in the Joint Venture's systems. The Partnership Agreement gives the general partners the authority to sell insubstantial portions of the property and assets of the Partnership without unit holder approval.

On February 6, 2003, the Partnership entered into a side letter amending the asset purchase agreement providing for the sale of all of its cable systems to Telecommunications Management. The February 6, 2003 side letter amends the asset purchase agreement and Deposit Escrow Agreement to extend the date of the second installment of the deposit and the Outside Closing Date each by 60 days. On April 7, 2003, the second installment of the escrow deposit was due and was not made.

On April 24, 2003, the Partnership entered into another side letter amending the asset purchase agreement providing for the sale of all of its cable systems to Telecommunications Management. The April 24, 2003 side letter amends the asset purchase agreement and Deposit Escrow Agreement to extend the date of the second installment of the deposit to May 15, 2003 and the Outside Closing Date to September 30, 2003.

On June 6, 2003, the Partnership entered into a third side letter amending the asset purchase agreement providing for the sale of all of its cable systems to Telecommunications Management. The June 6, 2003 side letter amends the asset purchase agreement to reduce the purchase price of the remaining cable system in the Selling Partnerships to approximately $14,487,200, subject to closing sale price adjustments, of which approximately $461,500 relates to the remaining cable system in the Partnership. In addition, $250,000 was deposited in the Deposit Escrow Account concurrent with the execution of the side letter.

The Partnership finalized its proposed plan of liquidation on November 30, 2002 in connection with the filing of a proxy to obtain partner approval for the sale of the Joint Venture's final cable systems and the subsequent liquidation and dissolution of the Joint Venture and the Partnership. In March 2003, the required number of votes necessary to implement the plan of liquidation were obtained. As a result, the Partnership changed its basis of accounting to the liquidation basis as of November 30, 2002. Accordingly, the assets in the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 have been stated at estimated realizable values and the liabilities have been reflected at estimated settlement amounts. The change to liquidation basis accounting resulted in an increase to equity in assets of joint venture of $1.6 million. In addition, estimated accrued costs of liquidation of $23,200 were recorded in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation as an estimate of costs to be incurred subsequent to the sales of the systems but prior to final dissolution of the Partnership. Distributions ultimately made to the partners upon liquidation will differ from the amounts recorded in the accompanying statement of net assets in liquidation of the Partnership as a result of adjustments recorded to the realizable value of the assets of the Joint Venture and adjustments if any to estimated costs of liquidation. No adjustments were made to estimated costs of liquidation during the three months ended June 30, 2003.

The Corporate General Partner's intention is to settle the outstanding obligations of the Partnership and terminate the Partnership as expeditiously as possible. Final dissolution of the Partnership and related cash distributions to the partners will occur upon obtaining final resolution of all liquidation issues.

CERTAIN TRENDS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Insurance coverage is maintained for all of the cable television properties owned or managed by Charter to cover damage to cable distribution systems, customer connections and against business interruptions resulting from such damage. This coverage is subject to a significant annual deductible, which applies to all of the cable television properties owned or managed by Charter, including those of the Joint Venture.

All of the Joint Venture's remaining customers after the sale of the Monticello system are served by its system in Pomme de Terre, Missouri and neighboring communities. Significant damage to the system due to seasonal weather conditions or other events could have a material adverse effect on the Joint Venture's liquidity and cash flows. The Joint Venture continues to purchase insurance coverage in amounts its management views as appropriate for all other property, liability, automobile, workers' compensation and other insurable risks.

As disclosed in Charter's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the parent of our Corporate General Partner and our Manager is the defendant in twenty-two class action and shareholder lawsuits and is the subject of a grand jury investigation being conducted by the United States Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Missouri and an SEC investigation. The United States Attorney's office has publicly stated that Charter is not currently a target of the investigation. Charter has also been advised by the United States Attorney's office that no member of its board of directors, including its Chief Executive Officer, is a target of the investigation. On July 24, 2003, a federal grand jury charged four former officers of Charter with conspiracy and mail and wire fraud, alleging improper accounting and reporting practices focusing on revenue from digital set-top terminal suppliers and inflated subscriber account numbers. On July 25, 2003, one of the former officers who was indicted entered a guilty plea. Charter has informed the Corporate General partner that they are fully cooperating with the investigation.

Charter is unable to predict the outcome of the class action lawsuits and government investigations at this time. An unfavorable outcome of these matters could have a material adverse effect on Charter's results of operations and financial condition, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on us.

It is difficult to assess the impact that the general economic slowdown will have on future operations. This could result in reduced spending by customers and advertisers, which could reduce revenues and operating cash flow, as well as the collectibility of accounts receivable.

INFLATION

Certain of the Joint Venture's expenses, such as those for wages and benefits, equipment repair and replacement, and billing and marketing generally increase with inflation. However, we do not believe that our financial results have been, or will be, adversely affected by inflation in a material manner, provided that the Joint Venture is able to increase its prices periodically, of which there can be no assurance.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In April of 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 149 will not have an impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

In May of 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity." SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 will not have an impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our Corporate General Partner, including our Chief Administrative Officer and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures with respect to the information generated for use in this Quarterly Report. The evaluation was based in part upon reports and affidavits provided by a number of executives. Based upon, and as of the date of that evaluation, our Chief Administrative Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurances that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2003 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based upon the above evaluation, we believe that our controls do provide such reasonable assurances.
