1.      Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of NTL (Triangle) LLC (formerly NTL (Bermuda) Limited) (“NTL Triangle” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2002. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.

The Company is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of NTL Incorporated (“NTL Incorporated” and, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “NTL”).

As indicated below, substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability of assets or classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

2.      Recapitalization Process and Ability to Continue Operations

On May 8, 2002, NTL Incorporated, NTL (Delaware), Inc., NTL Communications Corp., Diamond Cable Communications Limited, Diamond Holdings Limited and Communications Cable Funding Corp. filed a pre-arranged joint reorganization plan under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (referred to as the proposed recapitalization plan). NTL Triangle and NTL’s operating subsidiaries were not included in the Chapter 11 filing. Toward the end of 2001, while NTL continued to have sufficient liquidity to meet its near term obligations, it recognized the negative impact of the collapsing European and U.S. telecommunications markets on its ability to service its debt. Accordingly, NTL began to implement a strategy to preserve and maximize its enterprise value. This strategy included the implementation of cost-cutting measures and the commencement of discussions with certain third parties regarding strategic alternatives for NTL’s business.

The Company historically incurred operating losses and negative operating cash flow. In addition, the Company has required significant amounts of capital to finance construction of its networks, connection of customers to the networks, other capital expenditures and for working capital needs including debt service requirements. The Company historically met these liquidity requirements through issuances of high-yield debt securities in the capital markets and equity contributions and loans from NTL Communications Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of NTL Incorporated. Both the equity and debt capital markets have experienced periods of significant volatility, particularly for securities issued by telecommunications and technology companies. The ability of telecommunications companies to access those markets as well as their ability to obtain financing provided by bank lenders and equipment suppliers has become more restricted and financing costs have increased. During some recent periods, the capital markets have been largely unavailable to new issues of securities by telecommunications companies. NTL Incorporated’s public equity is no longer trading on the New York Stock Exchange, and its debt securities are trading at or near all time lows. These factors, together with NTL’s substantial leverage, means the Company does not currently have access to its historic sources of capital.

In addition, NTL’s UK credit facilities are fully drawn. The revolving tranche of the Cablecom credit facility has been capped at its utilized amount of CHF 1,055.0 million although the availability may be increased with the consent of the requisite majority of the lenders under that facility. The term tranche of the Cablecom credit facility is fully drawn. NTL has missed interest payments totaling $381.5 million beginning on April 1, 2002. Upon emerging from Chapter 11 proceedings, NTL intends to make any required interest payments on the notes of Diamond Holdings. In accordance with the proposed recapitalization plan, NTL does not plan to make future interest payments on its currently outstanding publicly traded notes except notes issued by NTL Triangle and, upon emergence from Chapter 11 proceedings, Diamond Holdings Limited.

As of June 30, 2002, NTL Triangle had approximately £25.6 million in cash and cash equivalents on hand. NTL Triangle may require additional cash in the twelve months from July 1, 2002 to June 30, 2003. NTL Incorporated obtained a Court approved $630 million DIP facility (described below) on July 15, 2002 to meet the potential cash requirements of its and its subsidiaries, excluding Cablecom. NTL Incorporated expects that the DIP facility will be replaced with an exit facility for NTL Communications Corp. and its subsidiaries, including NTL Triangle, upon the completion of the recapitalization process, in part because the DIP facility will mature concurrently with the Debtors’ emergence from Chapter 11. NTL Triangle estimates that its capital expenditures and debt service requirements, net of cash from operations, will aggregate up to approximately £23.7 million from July 1, 2002 to June 30, 2003. Management of NTL Triangle believes that cash and cash equivalents on hand at June 30, 2002, and the cash available from the DIP facility and subsequently the planned exit facility will be sufficient for its and its subsidiaries cash requirements during the twelve months from July 1, 2002 to June 30, 2003.

Events Leading to the Proposed Recapitalization and Chapter 11 Filings

Beginning in January 2002, NTL was contacted by an unofficial committee of bondholders regarding the commencement of a comprehensive and consensual restructuring process. NTL was informed at that time that the members of the unofficial steering committee of bondholders owned, in the aggregate, more than 50% of the outstanding principal amount of NTL’s notes. In connection with the restructuring process, the steering committee of the unofficial committee of bondholders retained advisors to facilitate the negotiations.

On January 31, 2002, NTL announced that it had appointed Credit Suisse First Boston, JP Morgan and Morgan Stanley to advise on strategic and recapitalization alternatives to strengthen its balance sheet and reduce debt and put an appropriate capital structure in place for its business. Subsequently, NTL evaluated various recapitalization alternatives, and met with a number of strategic investors, to effect a comprehensive consensual reorganization in a timely manner to minimize negative effects on its business operations. Discussions with such strategic investors did not result in a proposal which NTL's board of directors believed was comparable or superior to the value provided to its stakeholders by the proposed plan of reorganization.

Liberty Media Corporation, one of such potential strategic investors, which is also a significant shareholder in Telewest plc, another British cable and telephone company, has discussed various transactions with NTL from time to time over the past several years. In March 2002, Liberty and NTL amended a previously existing confidentiality agreement between them to cover the restructuring process and to include a “standstill” agreement which prohibited various acquisitions of, or offers, for NTL debt or equity securities by Liberty and its subsidiaries until June 30, 2002.

On April 17, 2002, Liberty sent a proposal to NTL’s board of directors, which proposed a cash tender offer for 30% of the outstanding bonds of NTL Communications Corp. at a “small premium” to the prevailing market price and an agreement to vote such acquired bonds in favor of the proposed plan of reorganization, as well as a “participation” with NTL in a cash infusion of up to $500 million into Cablecom. After consultation with NTL's board of directors and the steering committee of bondholders on April 18, 2002, NTL indicated to Liberty that it did not consider the Liberty proposal to be in the best interests of NTL and that the best course of action for NTL to maximize its enterprise value was to promptly consummate the proposed plan of reorganization. By letter dated June 28, 2002, NTL received notice that Liberty was ceasing all discussions with NTL concerning its proposals.

Promptly upon obtaining the requisite waivers from the lenders under its credit facilities, in March 2002, NTL commenced negotiations with the steering committee of the unofficial committee of bondholders and its legal and financial advisors. The negotiations continued during the latter part of March and throughout April 2002, and also included France Telecom. On April 16, 2002, NTL announced that it had reached a comprehensive agreement in principle with the unofficial committee and France Telecom, a significant holder of NTL Incorporated’s preferred stock, on implementing a recapitalization plan. On May 2, 2002, a steering committee of the lending banks under NTL’s credit facilities gave their approval in principle (on a non-legally binding basis) to NTL’s proposed plan of reorganization.

The reorganization plan, if implemented, will result in the cancellation of all of NTL Incorporated’s outstanding shares of common stock, preferred stock and redeemable preferred stock, and the cancellation of all of the publicly held notes of NTL Incorporated, NTL (Delaware), Inc. and NTL Communications Corp. and the transfer of the publicly held notes of Diamond Cable Communications Limited to NTL UK and Ireland (one of two new entities to be created under the plan). In addition, if the plan is implemented, NTL will be discharged from its obligation to pay dividends accruing on the canceled preferred stock and interest accruing on the canceled notes. The reorganization plan contemplates that the UK bank debt will remain in place as part of the recapitalization. NTL would be split into two companies, one tentatively called NTL UK and Ireland, holding its main UK and Ireland assets, and one tentatively called NTL Euroco, holding certain of its continental European and other assets.

To implement the proposed recapitalization, on May 8, 2002, NTL Incorporated, NTL (Delaware), Inc., NTL Communications Corp., Diamond Cable Communications Limited, Diamond Holdings Limited and Communications Cable Funding Corp., which we refer to as the Debtors, filed cases and a pre-arranged joint reorganization plan under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. NTL Triangle and NTL’s operating subsidiaries were not included in the Chapter 11 filings.

On June 21, 2002, the United States Trustee appointed an official unsecured creditors’ committee. The creditors’ committee is comprised of the three indenture trustees for the debt securities of NTL and the ten members of the steering committee of NTL’s bondholders. The members of the creditors’ committee are: The Bank of New York; Wilmington Trust Company; Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association; Angelo Gordon & Co. LP; Capital Research & Management Company; Franklin Mutual Advisers, LLC; Oaktree Capital Management LLC; Salomon Brothers Asset Management; Appaloosa Management, LP; Fidelity Management & Research Co.; MacKay Shields LLC; SAB Capital Management, L.P.; and W.R. Huff Asset Management Co., LLC.

On May 24, 2002, the Debtors filed an amended joint reorganization plan and disclosure statement. The bankruptcy court approved the disclosure statement on July 12, 2002 as containing information of a kind and in sufficient detail to enable the holders of claims against or interests in the debtors to make an informed judgment with respect to the reorganization plan prior to exercising their right to vote to accept or reject the reorganization plan. At that time the Court set September 5, 2002 as the date for the hearing to consider confirmation of the amended joint reorganization plan as subsequently amended. On July 15, 2002, NTL Incorporated and its debtor subsidiaries filed an amended disclosure statement and a second amended joint reorganization plan. A copy of the second amended joint reorganization plan and the related disclosure statement are included as exhibits to NTL Incorporated’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 16, 2002.

The filing of the petitions seeking relief filed under Chapter 11 constituted an event of default under the indentures of each of the entities which filed Chapter 11 petitions and amounts outstanding under these indentures became immediately due and payable. No action has been taken to date in respect of those defaults and any such action likely would be barred by the automatic stay that exists by virtue of the Chapter 11 filings. The filing of the Debtors’ Chapter 11 petitions also constituted an event of default under NTL’s UK credit facilities and the Cablecom credit facility, allowing the lenders thereunder to declare amounts outstanding to be immediately payable. Those lenders have not taken any action to date in respect of those defaults, and a steering committee of those lenders has agreed in principle (in a non-legally binding manner) to the proposed recapitalization.

Recapitalization Expense

A subsidiary of NTL in the UK has incurred recapitalization expenses of approximately £23 million through June 30, 2002, including approximately £13 million for employee retention related to substantially all of NTL’s UK employees and approximately £10 million for financial advisor, legal, accounting and consulting costs. NTL Triangle expects to be charged in the third quarter of 2002 for its share of these expenses as well as expenses incurred after June 30, 2002.

NTL expects to incur approximately $50.0 million in additional recapitalization costs until the completion of the process. The proposed joint reorganization plan provides that recapitalization costs will be allocated between NTL UK and Ireland and NTL Euroco.

DIP facility

In connection with the proposed joint reorganization plan, some members of the official unsecured creditors’ committee of bondholders committed to provide up to $500 million of new debt financing to NTL Incorporated and some of its subsidiaries during the Chapter 11 process. The new financing will ensure that NTL’s business operations have access to sufficient liquidity to continue ordinary operations. GE Capital, an affiliate of GE Capital Structured Finance Group Limited, one of the lenders under the Senior Credit Facility, and Wilmington Trust Company, the trustee under the Indentures governing certain of the NTL Incorporated subordinated notes, filed objections to the DIP facility. The Bankruptcy Court approved the DIP facility in the principal amount of $630 million (including a $130 million commitment from NTL (Delaware), Inc. and the $500 million from certain members of the creditors’ committee) over such objections in an order issued on July 3, 2002. On July 15, 2002, the various lenders under the DIP facility and NTL (Delaware), Inc., entered into the DIP facility agreement with Communications Cable Funding Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of NTL Communications Corp., to provide $630 million in financing to Communications Cable Funding Corp.

In connection with the commitment, NTL Incorporated and its debtor subsidiaries were to pay a commitment fee to the bondholder DIP lenders equal to 2% of the $500 million commitment (i.e., $10 million). Accordingly, on May 6, 2002, and May 7, 2002, NTL delivered to its bank written instructions to pay by wire transfer to each lender under the DIP facility such lender’s pro rata portion of the commitment fee. Due to administrative difficulties, however, some of the lenders under the DIP facility did not receive their pro rata portion of the commitment fee prior to the commencement of the Chapter 11 cases. In total, as of May 8, 2002, $428,000 of the $10 million commitment fee had not been paid to the applicable lenders under the DIP facility. Pursuant to an order of the court dated May 31, 2002, the remaining $428,000 of the commitment fee was paid to the applicable lenders under the DIP facility.

Each term loan under the DIP facility will bear interest on the unpaid principal amount for three months from July 15, 2002 at the rate of 11% per annum. With respect to each successive three month period following that date, the rate per annum will increase incrementally by 1% over the immediately preceding three month period but will not exceed 18% per annum for any three month period.

NTL (Delaware), Inc. is also a lender under the DIP facility and will lend up to $130 million. NTL (Delaware), Inc. has cash on hand and, because the Chapter 11 cases are not substantively consolidated, NTL Incorporated and its debtor subsidiaries and the steering committee of bondholders have concluded that the cash at NTL (Delaware), Inc. is to be used to partially fund the reorganization of all of the debtors. NTL (Delaware), Inc. will receive interest and is entitled to the same protections as the other bondholder DIP lenders.

Under the DIP facility agreement, Communications Cable Funding is the borrower, and the other debtors (other than Diamond Cable and Diamond Holdings) are guarantors, except that NTL Communications Corp. is also a co-obligor of the loans from NTL (Delaware), Inc. Under the DIP facility agreement, the cash (except for the DIP facility proceeds) of the borrower and the guarantors will be cash collateral for the DIP facility and will not be used or transferred for any purpose whatsoever without the consent of the bondholder DIP lenders. All funding needs of the Debtors will be funded through the proceeds of the DIP facility, in accordance with a budget and the terms of the DIP facility agreement.

Under the DIP facility agreement, the loan structure contains three tranches that rank equally with each other. All amounts owed under the DIP facility agreement are required to be paid in full no later than the earlier of (i) the consummation of the reorganization plan, (ii) December 1, 2002, and (iii) the date on which all of the term loans become due and payable in full under the DIP facility agreement, whether by acceleration or otherwise.

On July 17, 2002, NTL drew the first tranche available under the facility in the amount of $229.0 million.

A copy of the DIP facility agreement was attached as an exhibit to Form 8-K filed by NTL Incorporated with the Commission on July 19, 2002.

Exit Facility

Because of the short maturity of the DIP facility and the longer term liquidity needs of NTL, as well as the requirements under the Bankruptcy Code for confirmation of and the conditions to consummation of NTL’s proposed plan, NTL will require the reorganized NTL to enter into an exit financing facility. The exit financing or any alternative financing would refinance (at least in part) the DIP facility and may be used as consideration for the refinancing of a £90 million note payable to NTL (Delaware), Inc. from NTL (UK) Group Inc. Because of the present market conditions which are unfavorable to telecommunications companies generally, there can be no assurance that NTL will successfully obtain an acceptable exit facility, although NTL is presently in discussions with various parties about alternatives.

NTL expects that the exit facility may be secured by various assets of the reorganized NTL, including those which secure the DIP facility, would rank senior to all current and future subordinated debt of the reorganized NTL.

NTL also expects that the exit facility would impose operating and financial restrictions on the reorganized NTL and its subsidiaries. These restrictions would significantly limit or prohibit, among other things, the reorganized NTL’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends, or make distributions in respect of capital stock, make other restricted payments, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, create liens upon assets, enter into transactions with affiliates or related persons, sell assets, or consolidate, merge, or sell all or substantially all of their assets. The exit facility also likely would require the reorganized NTL to satisfy financial covenants on an ongoing basis. NTL cannot determine at this time whether these financial covenants would have a material impact on the reorganized NTL’s ability to finance future operations or capital needs or to engage in other business activities.

The terms, covenants, and conditions of an exit facility have not been finalized and remain subject to negotiation and final documentation.

Proposed Recapitalization Plan

Under the proposed recapitalization plan, NTL would be split into two companies, one tentatively called NTL UK and Ireland and holding substantially all of NTL’s UK and Ireland assets, and one tentatively called NTL Euroco and holding substantially all of NTL’s continental European and other assets.

Holders of notes of NTL Incorporated (other than France Telecom), NTL (Delaware), Inc. (other than France Telecom), NTL Communications Corp. and Diamond Cable Communications Limited would in the aggregate receive 100% of the initial common stock of NTL UK and Ireland (excluding shares issuable in the rights offerings and upon the exercise of warrants (discussed below) and upon the exercise of options which will be granted to certain employees of NTL UK and Ireland). Holders of notes of NTL Incorporated (other than France Telecom), NTL (Delaware), Inc. (other than France Telecom) and NTL Communications Corp. would in the aggregate receive (i) 100% of the preferred stock of NTL Euroco and (ii) a certain amount of cash as specified in the amended joint reorganization plan. Holders of the subordinated notes of NTL Incorporated (other than France Telecom), NTL (Delaware), Inc. (other than France Telecom) and NTL Communications Corp. would in the aggregate receive

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — CONTINUED
(Unaudited)

86.5% of the initial common stock of NTL Euroco (excluding shares issuable upon the exercise of options which will be granted to certain employees of NTL Euroco). Holders of senior notes of NTL Communications Corp. would receive the value of a specified number of shares of common stock of NTL Euroco pursuant to the amended joint reorganization plan. Notes of NTL Triangle and Diamond Holdings Limited, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of NTL Incorporated would remain outstanding and interest payments will be made.

Current preferred and common stockholders of NTL Incorporated, including France Telecom, would receive warrants to purchase common stock of NTL UK and Ireland and rights entitling them to purchase common stock of NTL UK and Ireland. For each share of common stock purchased upon exercise of rights, the person exercising such rights will receive a warrant to purchase one share of common stock of NTL UK and Ireland. The rights will be exercisable, on an oversubscription basis, for the 20-business day period after the entry of the confirmation order, as such period may be extended, and the warrants will be exercisable for a period of eight years at an exercise price of $77.47 per share. The number of shares to be received upon exercise of the warrants is subject to customary adjustments for stock splits, stock recapitalizations and distributions of property (other than cash) to holders of NTL UK and Ireland Common Stock. If fully exercised, the rights and warrants would entitle the current preferred stockholders of NTL Incorporated to acquire approximately 23.6% and the current common stockholders of NTL Incorporated to acquire approximately 8.9% of NTL UK and Ireland’s primary common stock on the effective date of the recapitalization. Holders of the subordinated notes of NTL Incorporated (other than France Telecom), NTL (Delaware), Inc. (other than France Telecom), and NTL Communications Corp. would have the right to purchase any shares of NTL UK and Ireland common stock and warrants not subscribed for in the rights offering by the preferred and common stockholders of NTL Incorporated. It is expected that the warrants will be listed or quoted on the same exchange or inter-dealer quotation system as the shares of common stock of the reorganized NTL. NTL has had preliminary conversations with the New York Stock Exchange regarding the listing of the common stock of NTL UK and Ireland on the Exchange following the effective date of its plan of reorganization. Based on these preliminary conversations there has been no indication from the New York Stock Exchange that NTL UK and Ireland will qualify for listing on the Exchange. There can be no assurance that shares of NTL UK and Ireland common stock and/or Series A warrants will be listed on an exchange or be eligible for trading on an inter-dealer quotation system on the effective date of the bankruptcy or at any time thereafter or that an orderly trading market will develop for these securities.

Current preferred stockholders, other than France Telecom, would receive approximately 3.2% and current common stockholders, other than France Telecom, would receive approximately 10.3% of the primary equity of NTL Euroco. It is contemplated that, subject to the consummation of the recapitalization, France Telecom would also receive NTL Incorporated’s 27% interest in Noos, pursuant to a pledge of such interest to France Telecom given at the time of its acquisition.

During the recapitalization process, NTL has maintained normal and regular trade terms with its suppliers and customers. There can be no assurance that NTL’s suppliers will continue to provide normal trade credit or credit on acceptable terms, if at all, or that customers will continue to do business or enter into new business with NTL. See also “Risk Factors” for a summary of risks related to NTL’s business in general and the recapitalization process in particular.

Section 1129 of the United States Bankruptcy Code requires, among other things, a showing that confirmation of the proposed recapitalization plan will not be followed by liquidation or the need for further financial reorganization of NTL Incorporated, NTL (Delaware), Inc., NTL Communications Corp., Diamond Cable Communications Limited or Diamond Holdings Limited, and that the value of distributions to dissenting holders of claims and interests may not be less than the value such holders would receive in a liquidation under Chapter 7 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. Although NTL believes that the proposed recapitalization plan will meet these tests, there can be no assurance that the Bankruptcy Court will reach the same conclusion.

(Unaudited)

The United States Bankruptcy Code also requires that a plan must provide the same treatment for each claim or interest in a particular class, unless a holder agrees to a less favorable treatment of its particular claim or interest. NTL believes that the proposed recapitalization plan complies with this requirement of the United States Bankruptcy Code. However, if a member of a class objects to its treatment, or if the Bankruptcy Court finds that the proposed recapitalization plan does not comply with the requirements of the United States Bankruptcy Code, confirmation of the plan could be delayed or prevented. In addition, each class of impaired claims and interests that will (or may) be entitled to receive property under the plan will have the opportunity to vote to accept or reject the plan. If an impaired class of claims or interests rejects the plan, NTL may request confirmation of the plan pursuant to the “cramdown” provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code. Even if the requirements for “cramdown” are met, the Bankruptcy Court, which, as a court of equity may exercise substantial discretion, may choose not to confirm the plan. These can be no assurance that the proposed recapitalization plan will be confirmed.

Bank Waivers

Before NTL could commence negotiations with the unofficial committee of bondholders, it was necessary to obtain waivers from the lenders under NTL’s credit facilities. Effective March 8, 2002, these lenders granted waivers which, until March 29, 2002, provided that the commencement of negotiations with bondholders with a view to rescheduling its debt would not constitute an event of default under the credit facilities. Such initial waivers did not permit NTL to make to any of its bondholders an exchange or similar offer for NTL’s outstanding public notes or to enter into a legally binding agreement with the unofficial steering committee of bondholders, subject to some exceptions, without the consent of the lenders under the credit facilities. But for the initial waivers, the commencement of negotiations with bondholders would have been an event of default under the credit facilities.

Effective March 28, 2002, the lenders under the credit facilities agreed to amend the initial waivers. The amendments to the initial waivers extended the duration of the initial waivers to April 29, 2002 in the case of the UK credit facilities or May 14, 2002 in the case of the Cablecom credit facility, unless the interest payments missed by NTL Communications Corp. on April 1, 2002 were remedied or a sufficient number of bondholders agreed to forbear in respect of such non-payment, in which case, the UK credit facilities waivers were to be extended to May 14, 2002. As a condition to the amendment to the initial waivers, the UK lenders required NTL (Delaware), Inc. to loan £90 million to NTL (UK) Group, Inc. following receipt of the proceeds from the sale of NTL Australia. Such loan was actually made (with the approval of the lenders under the UK credit facilities) to NTL (UK) Group, Inc. and then on-lent to certain subsidiaries of NTL (UK) Group, Inc. This loan, which was made on April 5, 2002, is structurally senior to the outstanding public notes issued by NTL Communications Corp. and contractually senior to intra-group debt owed by NTL (UK) Group, Inc. to NTL Communications Corp. but contractually subordinated to the UK credit facilities. In connection with the amendments to the waivers, NTL affirmed the provisions of the initial waivers and agreed, among other things, not to commence voluntary dissolution proceedings, including proceedings under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, without the consent of these lenders.

As of the date of this Form 10-Q, there are no current waivers from NTL’s secured lenders and NTL is therefore in default under its UK credit facilities and the Cablecom credit facility. In connection with the proposed recapitalization plan, it is intended that the existing events of default under the credit facilities will be cured by amendment with effect from the effective date of the recapitalization, if it is approved by creditors and the Bankruptcy Court. On May 2, 2002, a memorandum was executed by NTL, a steering committee of its lending banks and the unofficial committee of its public bondholders indicating the parties’ agreement in principle (on a non-legally binding basis) to the terms of the proposed recapitalization and the terms on which the Company’s UK credit facilities should be amended and restated and with respect to certain matters relating to the sale of, or investment in, Cablecom.

Cablecom GmbH, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of NTL (Delaware), Inc., is the principal trading company of NTL’s Swiss group. NTL Triangle does not have any ownership interest in this group, although the condition of this group can indirectly impact NTL Triangle to the extent it impacts NTL Incorporated or NTL (Delaware), Inc., both parent companies of NTL Triangle. There were a number of technical defaults under the Swiss credit facility

made available to Cablecom and various of its subsidiaries. In addition, as of December 31, 2001, Cablecom’s and six of its direct and indirect subsidiaries’ liabilities exceeded their respective assets. As a consequence, under Swiss law, those entities were deemed to be “overindebted”. This also constituted an event of default under the Cablecom credit facility, which entitled the lenders to accelerate repayment. Such an acceleration would have resulted in an event of default under NTL Incorporated’s and NTL (Delaware), Inc.’s 5.75% convertible subordinated notes due 2011 and 5.75% convertible subordinated notes due 2009.

Under Swiss law, the board of directors of an overindebted company is generally obliged to notify a judge of overindebtedness so that the judge may either institute insolvency proceedings or postpone such adjudication and take appropriate measures to preserve the value of the assets. An overindebted company is not required to notify a judge if the creditors of the overindebted entity subordinate their claims in the amount of the overindebtedness.

The problem of overindebtedness was resolved on June 26 and June 27, 2002 in certain of the overindebted subsidiaries when they were merged into Cablecom and other members of the Cablecom group. The remaining overindebted subsidiaries were not merged but the overindebtedness issue was resolved in those subsidiaries by way of subordination agreements which obviated any requirement to institute insolvency proceedings in respect of these companies.

At the end of April 2002 the defaults subsisting at that time were remedied or were waived by the restatement of the credit agreement and the grant of a waiver letter. However, conditions subsequent such as the grant of new security and the deposit of share certificates relating to minority shareholdings pledged to the banks were imposed by these documents and other new finance documents executed pursuant to the restatement.

Since the end of April 2002 the following defaults have occurred under the Cablecom finance documents: (1) The indentures issued by NTL (Delaware), Inc. and NTL Incorporated have become payable and have not been paid; (2) NTL (Delaware), Inc. has commenced negotiations with its creditors with a view to the general rescheduling of its indebtedness and has commenced proceedings under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code pursuant to which it intends to reorganize its debt; (3) NTL (Delaware), Inc. has liabilities which exceed the value of its assets and is unable to pay its debts as they fall due; (4) Cablecom was unable to satisfy the conditions to allow it to rollover revolving advances maturing in early July 2002. The revolving advances remained unpaid for several days until Cablecom was able to obtain the consent of the banks to waive the conditions to their rollover; (5) Certain of the conditions subsequent imposed by the restated credit agreement, the waiver letter and other finance documents executed pursuant to the restated credit agreement have yet to be fulfilled.

The outstanding defaults under the Cablecom finance documents entitle the facility agent to demand repayment of the loan and enforce the security granted to secure that loan. The facility agent has discretion to take those steps and can be compelled to take those steps by a group of banks holding at least 66-2/3% in aggregate of the loan.

Future developments in Cablecom’s business, as well as external factors, could result in a reemergence of the over indebtedness issue under Swiss law.

Interest Payments on Public Notes

NTL has substantial interest payment obligations under its existing indebtedness. NTL Incorporated and certain of its subsidiaries did not make their scheduled interest payments on the respective due dates as follows:

QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2002
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — CONTINUED
(Unaudited)

Interest payments of $18.9 million were made, when due, on April 2, 2002 in respect of Diamond Cable Communications 13.25% senior discount notes due 2004. Upon emerging from Chapter 11 proceedings, NTL intends to make any required interest payments on the notes of Diamond Holdings Limited. In accordance with the proposed recapitalization plan, NTL does not plan to make future interest payments on its currently outstanding publicly traded notes except notes issued by NTL Triangle and, upon emergence from Chapter 11 proceedings, Diamond Holdings Limited.

If the applicable issuer does not pay interest on these notes after a 30 day grace period expires there is an event of default under the indenture in respect of the notes on which the interest is due and unpaid. An event of default entitles the trustee under the indenture or the holders of 25% of the outstanding notes to declare the principal amount of those notes to be immediately due and payable. Even if the maturity of those notes is not accelerated after the 30 day grace period, such an event of default would also result in an event of default in respect of other debt (commonly called cross defaults) under most of NTL’s other notes. Therefore, there was an event of default for failure to pay interest on May 1, 2002 under the indentures relating to the missed interest payments due April 1, 2002 and on May 16, 2002, under the indentures relating to the missed interest payments due April 15, 2002. As a result, cross defaults occurred under NTL’s other indentures at NTL Communications Corp., NTL (Delaware), Inc., NTL Incorporated and under NTL’s UK credit facilities and under the Cablecom credit facility. This gave holders of the outstanding series of debt at these entities the right to accelerate repayment of those debts by declaring the principal amount of the debts to be immediately due and payable. As a result of the payment defaults as well as NTL’s voluntary filing under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code on May 8, 2002, there is an event of default under

all of NTL’s credit facilities and the indentures governing all of NTL’s publicly traded debt, other than debt of NTL Triangle. As a result of the Chapter 11 filings, all of NTL’s publicly traded debt, other than the debt of NTL Triangle, became immediately due and payable, pursuant to the terms of the indentures governing such debt. The automatic stay of Section 362 of the United States Bankruptcy Code prevents the holders of such debt from seeking to enforce their collection rights under the indentures, except within the context of the Chapter 11 cases, and even then only with the prior approval of the Bankruptcy Court. However, NTL has received letters from the agents for the lenders under the UK credit facilities reserving such lenders’ rights to accelerate repayment of the facilities and to enforce the security granted in respect of the facilities on account of the defaults thereunder, actions which would not be prohibited by the automatic stay.

Credit Rating Downgrades

On April 3, 2002, credit rating agency Standard & Poor’s lowered the long-term corporate credit rating on some of NTL’s public debt to D from CCC-, citing NTL’s failure to make a bond interest payment due on April 1, 2002.

Delisting of NTL Incorporated Common Stock

On March 28, 2002, the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) announced that it was suspending NTL Incorporated’s common stock from trading on the NYSE. This determination was based upon, among other things, the selling price of NTL Incorporated’s common stock, which closed at $0.20 on March 26, 2002. The continued listing standards of the NYSE, which were applicable to NTL Incorporated, required maintenance of a minimum share price of $1.00 over a 30 trading day period and average global market capitalization of $100 million over a 30 trading day period. NTL Incorporated’s common stock fell below both of these continued listing standards. In addition, on May 9, 2002, Nasdaq Europe halted trading of the NTL Incorporated’s common stock pending receipt of information relating to the restructuring process because of the filing of NTL Incorporated’s Chapter 11 cases. NTL has complied with this information request, although there can be no assurance that Nasdaq Europe will (1) not make additional information requests, (2) remove the trading halt on shares of NTL Incorporated’s common stock or (3) not delist shares of NTL Incorporated’s common stock. NTL Incorporated’s common stock is currently quoted on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol “NTLD”.

Sale of NTL Australia

On April 2, 2002, NTL announced that it had completed the previously announced sale of its Australian broadcast business to Macquarie Communications Infrastructure Holding Pty Limited for A$850 million (US$451.3 million). The net proceeds from the sale were approximately A$575.3 million (US$304.5 million). At that time, the business’ bank debt outstanding totaled A$227.3 million (US$121.7 million). NTL Triangle did not have any ownership interest in NTL Australia.

On April 5, 2002, NTL (Delaware), Inc. loaned £90 million to NTL (UK) Group Inc., which loan was funded by the proceeds of the sale of NTL Australia. This loan is subordinated to NTL’s UK credit facilities. The remaining proceeds of the sale of NTL Australia remain at NTL (Delaware), Inc., and the proposed plan of reorganization anticipates that such proceeds will form a portion of the consideration to be offered to bondholders of NTL (Delaware), Inc. and NTL Incorporated in satisfaction of their claims against those companies.

Potential Sale of, or Outside Investment in, Cablecom

It has been agreed to engage UBS Warburg LLC by August 31, 2002 to advise in connection with an outside investment in, or sale of all or part of, Cablecom. As part of this process, NTL (Delaware), Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries have agreed to approve any such outside investment or sale, which is acceptable to the lenders under the Cablecom credit facility.

It has also been agreed that if such a sale of all or part of Cablecom is consummated on or before August 31, 2003,

(Unaudited)

the lenders under the Cablecom credit facility will be entitled to receive additional interest equal to 20% of the net proceeds of such a sale after repayment of the amounts outstanding under the Cablecom credit facility and other expenses and taxes of the sale. There can be no assurance that any outside investment in, or sale of all or part of, Cablecom pursuant to the Cablecom credit facility will be on terms that are favorable to NTL and such investment or sale could have a material adverse effect on NTL’s finances and business.

In particular, in the current environment, NTL’s shareholding in Cablecom may have little or no value, which may result in NTL receiving little or no consideration for its equity interest in Cablecom. Further, if a third party makes an investment in Cablecom there can be no assurance that NTL will be able to maintain its ability to direct the management of Cablecom.

Investments in and Loans to Affiliates

On April 15, 2002, a funding request for $20 million was received by NTL under the terms of the investment agreement relating to NTL’s investment in B2 in Sweden, a company which is deploying fiber directly to the home throughout Scandinavia. NTL Triangle does not have any ownership interest in B2 although the condition of B2 can indirectly impact NTL Triangle to the extent it impacts NTL Incorporated or NTL (Delaware), Inc., both parent companies of NTL Triangle. NTL has informed B2 and the other principal investors that it is not in a position to comply with this request for funding at this time. The B2 investment agreement provides that if NTL fails to provide such funding, it may be sued for non-payment and arguably could lose certain rights under the B2 shareholders’ arrangements. Pursuant to the applicable documents, if this occurs the majority remaining shareholders may also elect to terminate the shareholder arrangements with respect to NTL and exercise a contractual right to acquire on a pro rata basis NTL’s interest in B2 at 25% of fair market value. If the remaining shareholders elected to exercise these rights, NTL could be forced to sell its stake in B2 at a loss. On June 25, 2002, B2 and its remaining shareholders filed a motion in the Bankruptcy Court requesting relief from the automatic stay provisions of section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code to exercise their rights under the relevant agreements. Notwithstanding the arguments raised in the motion, NTL believes that the Bankruptcy Code provides various defenses and protections of and for NTL’s rights under the B2 investment agreement and in respect of its equity interest in B2 and intends to enforce vigorously its rights and protections.

Premium TV Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of NTL (Delaware), Inc., is obliged to provide funding of up to approximately £62.0 million ($94.5 million) to fund various of its joint venture interests. Of this amount, the payment of approximately £50.0 million ($76.2 million) has been guaranteed by NTL (Delaware), Inc. If Premium TV Limited fails to provide its committed funding under the relevant shareholder arrangements relating to these joint ventures, Premium TV Limited and, in respect of the guaranteed amounts, NTL (Delaware), Inc., may be sued for non-payment. As a result of the recapitalization process, the relevant joint venture partners may assert that they can compulsorily acquire Premium TV Limited’s interest in the relevant joint venture at a third party appraisal valuation. Premium TV Limited is currently in discussions with certain of these joint venture partners with a view to restructuring the relevant joint ventures. In the event that these discussions do not reach a resolution acceptable to Premium TV Limited, Premium TV Limited may seek to discontinue these joint ventures and terminate their activities, which may also result in a cessation of substantially all of Premium TV Limited’s activities. As a result of the restructuring process, the relevant joint venture partners may assert that they can compulsorily acquire Premium TV Limited’s interest in the relevant joint venture at a third party appraisal valuation. NTL believes, however, that it has various defenses and protections under the Bankruptcy Code against such actions and intends to enforce vigorously its rights and protections. NTL Triangle does not have any ownership interest in Premium TV Limited, although the condition of Premium TV Limited can indirectly impact NTL Triangle to the extent it impacts NTL Incorporated or NTL (Delaware), Inc., both parent companies of NTL Triangle.

Relationships with Suppliers

The uncertainty over NTL’s financial condition may adversely affect its relationships with its suppliers. If NTL’s suppliers become increasingly concerned about its financial condition, they may demand quicker payment terms or not extend normal trade credit, both of which could further adversely affect its results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

3.      Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” effective for the Company on January 1, 2002. This Statement superceded SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of” and other related accounting guidance. The adoption of this new standard had no effect on the results of operations, financial condition or cash flows of the Company.

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations,” effective for the Company on January 1, 2003. This Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible fixed assets and the associated asset retirement costs. The Company is in the process of evaluating the financial statement impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 143.

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations,” and No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. Use of the pooling-of-interests method is no longer permitted. SFAS No. 141 also includes guidance on the initial recognition and measurement of goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination that is completed after June 30, 2001.

SFAS No. 142 ends the amortization of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets. Instead, these assets must be reviewed annually (or more frequently under certain conditions) for impairment in accordance with this statement. This impairment test uses a fair value approach rather than the undiscounted cash flow approach previously required by SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of.” The Company adopted SFAS No. 142 on January 1, 2002. Primarily due to the significant impairment charge that the Company recorded in 2001, the adoption of this new standard did not have a significant effect on the results of operations, financial condition or cash flows of the Company.

Upon the adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company performed an analysis of its intangible assets acquired before July 1, 2001 to determine whether they should be classified and accounted for as part of or separate from goodwill. The Company determined that license acquisition costs and customer lists should continue to be classified separate from goodwill. The Company determined that license acquisition costs would no longer be subject to amortization since they are deemed to have an indefinite useful life. The Company also determined that no changes in the remaining useful lives of the customer lists were required.

The Company also performed an evaluation for impairment of its goodwill and license acquisition costs as of January 1, 2002 and determined that no impairment charge was required. The Company’s next evaluation of impairment will be the annual test as of October 1, 2002, unless there are new indicators of impairment.

Estimated aggregate amortization expense for each of the five succeeding fiscal years from December 31, 2001 is as follows: £13.0 million in 2002, £13.0 million in 2003, £7.0 million in 2004, £6.0 million in 2005 and £2.0 million in 2006.

Intangible assets consist of (in £000’s):

7.      Related Party Transactions

In October 2000, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary NTL Communications (Ireland) Limited (“Cablelink”) entered into a loan agreement with a subsidiary of NTL under which £74.6 million and £68.0 million had been borrowed at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively. The outstanding borrowings are due in October 2007. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears from March 31, 2001. The annual interest rate is set on January 1 of each year at the 12-month EURIBOR rate plus 1%. The effective interest rate at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 was 4.32% and 5.69%, respectively. Accrued interest of £1,594,000 and £916,000 was included in due to affiliates in the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively.

Since the acquisition of the Company by NTL in October 1998, a subsidiary of NTL has been providing infrastructure and management support services to the Company. Benefits include usage of NTL network assets, network maintenance, marketing and shared overhead. Additionally, during 2001 certain elements of the Company’s network operations and customer operations have been integrated with NTL’s national and regional operations in order for the Company to gain the advantage of NTL’s scale.

The related charges, which began in the fourth quarter of 1999, represent the Company’s portion of costs incurred by a subsidiary of NTL for the benefit of all UK operations within NTL. These charges are made on the basis of an allocation formula appropriate to each category of charge. The Company was charged £35.2 million and £29.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. For 2002, £14.5 million was included in operating costs and £20.7 million was included in selling, general and administrative expense. For 2001, £9.9 million was included in operating costs and £20.0 million was included in selling, general and administrative expense. It is not practicable to determine the amount of these expenses that would have been incurred had the Company operated as an unaffiliated entity. In the opinion of the management of the Company, the allocation method is reasonable.

As of June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, the due to affiliates balance include payments made to third parties on behalf of the Company by a subsidiary of NTL. The Company has reduced direct transactions with third parties as a result of the continued integration of the Company with NTL. The Company has therefore had its liabilities to third parties significantly reduced, with a rise in amounts due to affiliates. The payments made on behalf of the Company represent directly attributable expenses incurred by the Company.

Long-term debt consists of (in £000’s):

Due to uncertainties about the compliance with the terms and conditions of the Company’s debt that would give the holders of the debt the right to accelerate repayment, all of the Company’s long-term debt has been classified as current. (See Note 2.)

The Company is involved in legal proceedings and claims which arise in the ordinary course of its business. In the opinion of management, the amount of ultimate liability with respect to these actions will not materially affect the financial position, results of operations or liquidity of the Company.

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

Overview

NTL (Triangle) LLC (“NTL Triangle” or the “Company”) is a holding company which holds all of the shares of various companies principally engaged in the development, construction, management and operation of broadband communications networks for telephone, cable television and Internet services in the United Kingdom (“UK”) and Ireland. The Company owns the companies that have franchises for Darlington and Teesside (collectively, “Teesside”) and Cambridge in the UK, and NTL Communications (Ireland) Limited (formerly Cablelink Limited) (“Cablelink”), which owns the companies that provide services in Dublin, Galway and Waterford, Ireland. The Company is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of NTL Incorporated. Throughout this report, NTL Incorporated together with its consolidated subsidiaries are referred to as “NTL”.

Key points concerning NTL’s current financial condition and NTL’s planned recapitalization include:

Financial Condition

•     NTL Incorporated and its subsidiaries have issued and outstanding approximately $11.5 billion in senior and subordinated notes and debentures.

•     NTL’s UK credit facilities are fully drawn and the revolving tranche of the Cablecom facility has been capped at its utilized amount of CHF 1,055.0 million. The term tranche of the Cablecom facility is fully drawn.

•     NTL has missed interest payments totaling $381.5 million beginning on April 1, 2002.

•     In accordance with the proposed recapitalization plan, NTL does not plan to make future interest payments on its currently outstanding publicly traded notes except notes issued by NTL Triangle and, upon emergence from Chapter 11 proceedings, Diamond Holdings Limited.

•     As of May 8, 2002, the date of its Chapter 11 filing, NTL was in default of $95.4 million in interest in respect of $1,693.4 million in principal amount of its indebtedness.

Recapitalization Plan

•     On May 8, 2002, NTL Incorporated and a number of its subsidiaries, namely, NTL (Delaware), Inc., NTL Communications Corp., Diamond Cable Communications Limited, Diamond Holdings Limited and Communications Cable Funding Corp., filed a pre-arranged joint reorganization plan under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code.

•     Under the proposed reorganization plan, NTL will be split into two companies, one holding all of its main UK and Ireland assets (tentatively referred to as NTL UK and Ireland), and the other holding various continental European and other assets (tentatively referred to as NTL Euroco).

•     Holders of notes of NTL Incorporated, NTL (Delaware), Inc., NTL Communications Corp. and Diamond Cable Communications would receive 100% of the initial common stock of NTL UK and Ireland and approximately 86.5% of NTL Euroco.

•     Holders of notes of NTL (Delaware), Inc. would have the option to reinvest all or a portion of NTL (Delaware), Inc. cash in additional shares of common stock or to receive such cash in the recapitalization.

•     Common and preferred stockholders, including France Telecom, would participate in a package of rights (to be priced at a $10.5 billion enterprise value) and warrants entitling them to purchase primary common stock of NTL UK and Ireland. If fully exercised, those rights and warrants would entitle the current preferred stockholders to acquire approximately 23.6% and the current common stockholders to acquire approximately 8.9% of NTL UK and

21

Table of Contents

NTL (TRIANGLE) LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES
FORM 10-Q
QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2002

Ireland’s common stock. Current preferred stockholders, other than France Telecom, would receive approximately 3.2% and current common stockholders, other than France Telecom, would receive approximately 10.3% of the primary equity of NTL Euroco.

•     Under the reorganization plan, NTL will convert approximately $10.9 billion of debt to equity, thereby reducing NTL UK and Ireland’s debt to approximately $5.8 billion (projected pro forma net debt as of September 1, 2002 as per the amended disclosure statement filed on July 15, 2002) which will consist of mortgage notes, amounts owed under the UK credit facilities and Diamond Holdings and NTL Triangle notes and the projected exit facility.

•     Under the reorganization plan, NTL Euroco’s debt will consist of the Cablecom credit facility of CHF 1,055.0 million.

•     The Bankruptcy Court approved the proposed debtor in possession financing in the principal amount of $630 million in an order dated July 3, 2002. The DIP facility was entered into on July 15, 2002.

•     At a hearing on July 12, 2002, the Bankruptcy Court approved the Debtors’ amended disclosure statement.

•     The confirmation hearing in respect of the Debtors’ second amended joint reorganization plan, filed with the Bankruptcy Court on July 15, 2002, has been scheduled for September 5, 2002.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Recapitalization Process and Ability to Continue Operations

On May 8, 2002, NTL Incorporated, NTL (Delaware), Inc., NTL Communications Corp., Diamond Cable Communications Limited, Diamond Holdings Limited and Communications Cable Funding Corp. filed a pre-arranged joint reorganization plan under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (referred to as the proposed recapitalization plan). NTL Triangle and NTL’s operating subsidiaries were not included in the Chapter 11 filing. Toward the end of 2001, while NTL continued to have sufficient liquidity to meet its near term obligations, it recognized the negative impact of the collapsing European and U.S. telecommunications markets on its ability to service its debt. Accordingly, NTL began to implement a strategy to preserve and maximize its enterprise value. This strategy included the implementation of cost-cutting measures and the commencement of discussions with certain third parties regarding strategic alternatives for NTL’s business.

The Company historically incurred operating losses and negative operating cash flow. In addition, the Company has required significant amounts of capital to finance construction of its networks, connection of customers to the networks, other capital expenditures and for working capital needs including debt service requirements. The Company historically met these liquidity requirements through issuances of high-yield debt securities in the capital markets and equity contributions and loans from NTL Communications Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of NTL Incorporated. Both the equity and debt capital markets have experienced periods of significant volatility, particularly for securities issued by telecommunications and technology companies. The ability of telecommunications companies to access those markets as well as their ability to obtain financing provided by bank lenders and equipment suppliers has

22

Table of Contents

NTL (TRIANGLE) LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES
FORM 10-Q
QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2002

become more restricted and financing costs have increased. During some recent periods, the capital markets have been largely unavailable to new issues of securities by telecommunications companies. NTL Incorporated’s public equity is no longer trading on the New York Stock Exchange, and its debt securities are trading at or near all time lows. These factors, together with NTL’s substantial leverage, means the Company does not currently have access to its historic sources of capital.

In addition, NTL’s UK credit facilities are fully drawn. The revolving tranche of the Cablecom credit facility has been capped at its utilized amount of CHF 1,055.0 million although the availability may be increased with the consent of the requisite majority of the lenders under that facility. The term tranche of the Cablecom credit facility is fully drawn. NTL has missed interest payments totaling $381.5 million beginning on April 1, 2002. Upon emerging from Chapter 11 proceedings, NTL intends to make any required interest payments on the notes of Diamond Holdings. In accordance with the proposed recapitalization plan, NTL does not plan to make future interest payments on its currently outstanding publicly traded notes except notes issued by NTL Triangle and, upon emergence from Chapter 11 proceedings, Diamond Holdings Limited.

As of June 30, 2002, NTL Triangle had approximately £25.6 million in cash and cash equivalents on hand. NTL Triangle may require additional cash in the twelve months from July 1, 2002 to June 30, 2003. NTL Incorporated obtained a Court approved $630 million DIP facility (described below) on July 15, 2002 to meet the potential cash requirements of its and its subsidiaries, excluding Cablecom. NTL Incorporated expects that the DIP facility will be replaced with an exit facility for NTL Communications Corp. and its subsidiaries, including NTL Triangle, upon the completion of the recapitalization process, in part because the DIP facility will mature concurrently with the Debtors’ emergence from Chapter 11. NTL Triangle estimates that its capital expenditures and debt service requirements, net of cash from operations, will aggregate up to approximately £23.7 million from July 1, 2002 to June 30, 2003. Management of NTL Triangle believes that cash and cash equivalents on hand at June 30, 2002, and the cash available from the DIP facility and subsequently the planned exit facility will be sufficient for its and its subsidiaries cash requirements during the twelve months from July 1, 2002 to June 30, 2003.

Events Leading to the Proposed Recapitalization and Chapter 11 Filings

Beginning in January 2002, NTL was contacted by an unofficial committee of bondholders regarding the commencement of a comprehensive and consensual restructuring process. NTL was informed at that time that the members of the unofficial steering committee of bondholders owned, in the aggregate, more than 50% of the outstanding principal amount of NTL’s notes. In connection with the restructuring process, the steering committee of the unofficial committee of bondholders retained advisors to facilitate the negotiations.

On January 31, 2002, NTL announced that it had appointed Credit Suisse First Boston, JP Morgan and Morgan Stanley to advise on strategic and recapitalization alternatives to strengthen its balance sheet and reduce debt and put an appropriate capital structure in place for its business. Subsequently, NTL evaluated various recapitalization alternatives, and met with a number of strategic investors, to effect a comprehensive consensual reorganization in a timely manner to minimize negative effects on its business operations. Discussions with such strategic investors did not result in a proposal which NTL’s board of directors believed was comparable or superior to the value provided to its stakeholders by the proposed plan of reorganization.

Liberty Media Corporation, one of such potential strategic investors, which is also a significant shareholder in Telewest plc, another British cable and telephone company, has discussed various transactions with NTL from time to time over the past several years. In March 2002, Liberty and NTL amended a previously existing confidentiality

agreement between them to cover the restructuring process and to include a “standstill” agreement which prohibited various acquisitions of, or offers, for NTL debt or equity securities by Liberty and its subsidiaries until June 30, 2002.

On April 17, 2002, Liberty sent a proposal to NTL’s board of directors, which proposed a cash tender offer for 30% of the outstanding bonds of NTL Communications Corp. at a “small premium” to the prevailing market price and an agreement to vote such acquired bonds in favor of the proposed plan of reorganization, as well as a “participation” with NTL in a cash infusion of up to $500 million into Cablecom. After consultation with NTL’s board of directors and the steering committee of bondholders on April 18, 2002, NTL indicated to Liberty that it did not consider the Liberty proposal to be in the best interests of NTL and that the best course of action for NTL to maximize its enterprise value was to promptly consummate the proposed plan of reorganization. By letter dated June 28, 2002, NTL received notice that Liberty was ceasing all discussions with NTL concerning its proposals.

Promptly upon obtaining the requisite waivers from the lenders under its credit facilities, in March 2002, NTL commenced negotiations with the steering committee of the unofficial committee of bondholders and its legal and financial advisors. The negotiations continued during the latter part of March and throughout April 2002, and also included France Telecom. On April 16, 2002, NTL announced that it had reached a comprehensive agreement in principle with the unofficial committee and France Telecom, a significant holder of NTL Incorporated’s preferred stock, on implementing a recapitalization plan. On May 2, 2002, a steering committee of the lending banks under NTL’s credit facilities gave their approval in principle (on a non-legally binding basis) to NTL’s proposed plan of reorganization.

The reorganization plan, if implemented, will result in the cancellation of all of NTL Incorporated’s outstanding shares of common stock, preferred stock and redeemable preferred stock, and the cancellation of all of the publicly held notes of NTL Incorporated, NTL (Delaware), Inc. and NTL Communications Corp. and the transfer of the publicly held notes of Diamond Cable Communications Limited to NTL UK and Ireland (one of two new entities to be created under the plan). In addition, if the plan is implemented, NTL will be discharged from its obligation to pay dividends accruing on the canceled preferred stock and interest accruing on the canceled notes. The reorganization plan contemplates that the UK bank debt will remain in place as part of the recapitalization. NTL would be split into two companies, one tentatively called NTL UK and Ireland, holding its main UK and Ireland assets, and one tentatively called NTL Euroco, holding certain of its continental European and other assets.

To implement the proposed recapitalization, on May 8, 2002, NTL Incorporated, NTL (Delaware), Inc., NTL Communications Corp., Diamond Cable Communications Limited, Diamond Holdings Limited and Communications Cable Funding Corp., which we refer to as the Debtors, filed cases and a pre-arranged joint reorganization plan under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. NTL Triangle and NTL’s operating subsidiaries were not included in the Chapter 11 filings.

On June 21, 2002, the United States Trustee appointed an official unsecured creditors’ committee. The creditors’ committee is comprised of the three indenture trustees for the debt securities of NTL and the ten members of the steering committee of NTL’s bondholders. The members of the creditors’ committee are: The Bank of New York; Wilmington Trust Company; Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association; Angelo Gordon & Co. LP; Capital Research & Management Company; Franklin Mutual Advisers, LLC; Oaktree Capital Management LLC; Salomon Brothers Asset Management; Appaloosa Management, LP; Fidelity Management & Research Co.; MacKay Shields LLC; SAB Capital Management, L.P.; and W.R. Huff Asset Management Co., LLC.

On May 24, 2002, the Debtors filed an amended joint reorganization plan and disclosure statement. The bankruptcy court approved the disclosure statement on July 12, 2002 as containing information of a kind and in sufficient detail to enable the holders of claims against or interests in the debtors to make an informed judgment with respect to the reorganization plan prior to exercising their right to vote to accept or reject the reorganization plan. At that time the Court set September 5, 2002 as the date for the hearing to consider confirmation of the amended joint reorganization plan as subsequently amended. On July 15, 2002, NTL Incorporated and its debtor subsidiaries filed an amended

24

NTL (TRIANGLE) LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES
FORM 10-Q
QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2002

disclosure statement and a second amended joint reorganization plan. A copy of the second amended joint reorganization plan and the related disclosure statement are included as exhibits to NTL Incorporated’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 16, 2002.

The filing of the petitions seeking relief filed under Chapter 11 constituted an event of default under the indentures of each of the entities which filed Chapter 11 petitions and amounts outstanding under these indentures became immediately due and payable. No action has been taken to date in respect of those defaults and any such action likely would be barred by the automatic stay that exists by virtue of the Chapter 11 filings. The filing of the Debtors’ Chapter 11 petitions also constituted an event of default under NTL’s UK credit facilities and the Cablecom credit facility, allowing the lenders thereunder to declare amounts outstanding to be immediately payable. Those lenders have not taken any action to date in respect of those defaults, and a steering committee of those lenders has agreed in principle (in a non-legally binding manner) to the proposed recapitalization.

Recapitalization Expense

A subsidiary of NTL in the UK has incurred recapitalization expenses of approximately £23 million through June 30, 2002, including approximately £13 million for employee retention related to substantially all of NTL’s UK employees and approximately £10 million for financial advisor, legal, accounting and consulting costs. NTL Triangle expects to be charged in the third quarter of 2002 for its share of these expenses as well as expenses incurred after June 30, 2002.

NTL expects to incur approximately $50.0 million in additional recapitalization costs until the completion of the process. The proposed joint reorganization plan provides that recapitalization costs will be allocated between NTL UK and Ireland and NTL Euroco.

DIP Facility

In connection with the proposed joint reorganization plan, some members of the official unsecured creditors’ committee of bondholders committed to provide up to $500 million of new debt financing to NTL Incorporated and some of its subsidiaries during the Chapter 11 process. The new financing will ensure that NTL’s business operations have access to sufficient liquidity to continue ordinary operations. GE Capital, an affiliate of GE Capital Structured Finance Group Limited, one of the lenders under the Senior Credit Facility, and Wilmington Trust Company, the trustee under the Indentures governing certain of the NTL Incorporated subordinated notes, filed objections to the DIP facility. The Bankruptcy Court approved the DIP facility in the principal amount of $630 million (including a $130 million commitment from NTL (Delaware), Inc. and the $500 million from certain members of the creditors’ committee) over such objections in an order issued on July 3, 2002. On July 15, 2002, the various lenders under the DIP facility and NTL (Delaware), Inc., entered into the DIP facility agreement with Communications Cable Funding Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of NTL Communications Corp., to provide $630 million in financing to Communications Cable Funding Corp.

In connection with the commitment, NTL Incorporated and its debtor subsidiaries were to pay a commitment fee to the bondholder DIP lenders equal to 2% of the $500 million commitment (i.e., $10 million). Accordingly, on May 6, 2002, and May 7, 2002, NTL delivered to its bank written instructions to pay by wire transfer to each lender under the DIP facility such lender’s pro rata portion of the commitment fee. Due to administrative difficulties, however, some of the lenders under the DIP facility did not receive their pro rata portion of the commitment fee prior to the commencement of the Chapter 11 cases. In total, as of May 8, 2002, $428,000 of the $10 million commitment fee had not been paid to the applicable lenders under the DIP facility. Pursuant to an order of the court dated May 31, 2002, the remaining $428,000 of the commitment fee was paid to the applicable lenders under the DIP facility.

Each term loan under the DIP facility will bear interest on the unpaid principal amount for three months from July 15, 2002 at the rate of 11% per annum. With respect to each successive three month period following that date, the rate per annum will increase incrementally by 1% over the immediately preceding three month period but will not exceed 18% per annum for any three month period.

NTL (Delaware), Inc. is also a lender under the DIP facility and will lend up to $130 million. NTL (Delaware), Inc. has cash on hand and, because the Chapter 11 cases are not substantively consolidated, NTL Incorporated and its debtor subsidiaries and the steering committee of bondholders have concluded that the cash at NTL (Delaware), Inc. is to be used to partially fund the reorganization of all of the debtors. NTL (Delaware), Inc. will receive interest and is entitled to the same protections as the other bondholder DIP lenders.

Under the DIP facility agreement, Communications Cable Funding is the borrower, and the other debtors (other than Diamond Cable and Diamond Holdings) are guarantors, except that NTL Communications Corp. is also a co-obligor of the loans from NTL (Delaware), Inc. Under the DIP facility agreement, the cash (except for the DIP facility

25

NTL (TRIANGLE) LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES
FORM 10-Q
QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2002

proceeds) of the borrower and the guarantors will be cash collateral for the DIP facility and will not be used or transferred for any purpose whatsoever without the consent of the bondholder DIP lenders. All funding needs of the Debtors will be funded through the proceeds of the DIP facility, in accordance with a budget and the terms of the DIP facility agreement.

Under the DIP facility agreement, the loan structure contains three tranches that rank equally with each other. All amounts owed under the DIP facility agreement are required to be paid in full no later than the earlier of (i) the consummation of the reorganization plan, (ii) December 1, 2002, and (iii) the date on which all of the term loans become due and payable in full under the DIP facility agreement, whether by acceleration or otherwise.

On July 17, 2002, NTL drew the first tranche available under the facility in the amount of $229.0 million.

A copy of the DIP facility agreement was attached as an exhibit to Form 8-K filed by NTL Incorporated with the Commission on July 19, 2002.

Exit Facility

Because of the short maturity of the DIP facility and the longer term liquidity needs of NTL, as well as the requirements under the Bankruptcy Code for confirmation of and the conditions to consummation of NTL’s proposed plan, NTL will require the reorganized NTL to enter into an exit financing facility. The exit financing or any alternative financing would refinance (at least in part) the DIP facility and may be used as consideration for the refinancing of a £90 million note payable to NTL (Delaware), Inc. from NTL (UK) Group Inc. Because of the present market conditions which are unfavorable to telecommunications companies generally, there can be no assurance that NTL will successfully obtain an acceptable exit facility, although NTL is presently in discussions with various parties about alternatives.

NTL expects that the exit facility may be secured by various assets of the reorganized NTL, including those which secure the DIP facility, would rank senior to all current and future subordinated debt of the reorganized NTL.

NTL also expects that the exit facility would impose operating and financial restrictions on the reorganized NTL and its subsidiaries. These restrictions would significantly limit or prohibit, among other things, the reorganized NTL’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends, or make distributions in respect of capital stock, make other restricted payments, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, create liens upon assets, enter into transactions with affiliates or related persons, sell assets, or consolidate, merge, or sell all or substantially all of their assets. The exit facility also likely would require the reorganized NTL to satisfy financial covenants on an ongoing basis. NTL cannot determine at this time whether these financial covenants would have a material impact on the reorganized NTL’s ability to finance future operations or capital needs or to engage in other business activities.

The terms, covenants, and conditions of an exit facility have not been finalized and remain subject to negotiation and final documentation.

Proposed Recapitalization Plan

Under the proposed recapitalization plan, NTL would be split into two companies, one tentatively called NTL UK and Ireland and holding substantially all of NTL’s UK and Ireland assets, and one tentatively called NTL Euroco and holding substantially all of NTL’s continental European and other assets.

Holders of notes of NTL Incorporated (other than France Telecom), NTL (Delaware), Inc. (other than France Telecom), NTL Communications Corp. and Diamond Cable Communications Limited would in the aggregate receive 100% of the initial common stock of NTL UK and Ireland (excluding shares issuable in the rights offerings and upon the exercise of warrants (discussed below) and upon the exercise of options which will be granted to certain

employees of NTL UK and Ireland). Holders of notes of NTL Incorporated (other than France Telecom), NTL (Delaware), Inc. (other than France Telecom) and NTL Communications Corp. would in the aggregate receive (i) 100% of the preferred stock of NTL Euroco and (ii) a certain amount of cash as specified in the amended joint reorganization plan. Holders of the subordinated notes of NTL Incorporated (other than France Telecom), NTL (Delaware), Inc. (other than France Telecom) and NTL Communications Corp. would in the aggregate receive 86.5% of the initial common stock of NTL Euroco (excluding shares issuable upon the exercise of options which will be granted to certain employees of NTL Euroco). Holders of senior notes of NTL Communications Corp. would receive the value of a specified number of shares of common stock of NTL Euroco pursuant to the amended joint reorganization plan. Notes of NTL Triangle and Diamond Holdings Limited, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of NTL Incorporated would remain outstanding and interest payments will be made.

Current preferred and common stockholders of NTL Incorporated, including France Telecom, would receive warrants to purchase common stock of NTL UK and Ireland and rights entitling them to purchase common stock of NTL UK and Ireland. For each share of common stock purchased upon exercise of rights, the person exercising such rights will receive a warrant to purchase one share of common stock of NTL UK and Ireland. The rights will be exercisable, on an oversubscription basis, for the 20-business day period after the entry of the confirmation order, as such period may be extended, and the warrants will be exercisable for a period of eight years at an exercise price of $77.47 per share. The number of shares to be received upon exercise of the warrants is subject to customary adjustments for stock splits, stock recapitalizations and distributions of property (other than cash) to holders of NTL UK and Ireland Common Stock. If fully exercised, the rights and warrants would entitle the current preferred stockholders of NTL Incorporated to acquire approximately 23.6% and the current common stockholders of NTL Incorporated to acquire approximately 8.9% of NTL UK and Ireland’s primary common stock on the effective date of the recapitalization. Holders of the subordinated notes of NTL Incorporated (other than France Telecom), NTL (Delaware), Inc. (other than France Telecom), and NTL Communications Corp. would have the right to purchase any shares of NTL UK and Ireland common stock and warrants not subscribed for in the rights offering by the preferred and common stockholders of NTL Incorporated. It is expected that the warrants will be listed or quoted on the same exchange or inter-dealer quotation system as the shares of common stock of the reorganized NTL. NTL has had preliminary conversations with the New York Stock Exchange regarding the listing of the common stock of NTL UK and Ireland on the Exchange following the effective date of its plan of reorganization. Based on these preliminary conversations there has been no indication from the New York Stock Exchange that NTL UK and Ireland will qualify for listing on the Exchange. There can be no assurance that shares of NTL UK and Ireland common stock and/or Series A warrants will be listed on an exchange or be eligible for trading on an inter-dealer quotation system on the effective date of the bankruptcy or at any time thereafter or that an orderly trading market will develop for these securities.

Current preferred stockholders, other than France Telecom, would receive approximately 3.2% and current common stockholders, other than France Telecom, would receive approximately 10.3% of the primary equity of NTL Euroco. It is contemplated that, subject to the consummation of the recapitalization, France Telecom would also receive NTL Incorporated’s 27% interest in Noos, pursuant to a pledge of such interest to France Telecom given at the time of its acquisition.

During the recapitalization process, NTL has maintained normal and regular trade terms with its suppliers and customers. There can be no assurance that NTL’s suppliers will continue to provide normal trade credit or credit on acceptable terms, if at all, or that customers will continue to do business or enter into new business with NTL. See also “Risk Factors” for a summary of risks related to NTL’s business in general and the recapitalization process in particular.

Section 1129 of the United States Bankruptcy Code requires, among other things, a showing that confirmation of the proposed recapitalization plan will not be followed by liquidation or the need for further financial reorganization of NTL Incorporated, NTL (Delaware), Inc., NTL Communications Corp., Diamond Cable Communications Limited or Diamond Holdings Limited, and that the value of distributions to dissenting holders of claims and interests may not be less than the value such holders would receive in a liquidation under Chapter 7 of the United States Bankruptcy

27

NTL (TRIANGLE) LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES

QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2002

Code. Although NTL believes that the proposed recapitalization plan will meet these tests, there can be no assurance that the Bankruptcy Court will reach the same conclusion.

The United States Bankruptcy Code also requires that a plan must provide the same treatment for each claim or interest in a particular class, unless a holder agrees to a less favorable treatment of its particular claim or interest. NTL believes that the proposed recapitalization plan complies with this requirement of the United States Bankruptcy Code. However, if a member of a class objects to its treatment, or if the Bankruptcy Court finds that the proposed recapitalization plan does not comply with the requirements of the United States Bankruptcy Code, confirmation of the plan could be delayed or prevented. In addition, each class of impaired claims and interests that will (or may) be entitled to receive property under the plan will have the opportunity to vote to accept or reject the plan. If an impaired class of claims or interests rejects the plan, NTL may request confirmation of the plan pursuant to the “cramdown” provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code. Even if the requirements for “cramdown” are met, the Bankruptcy Court, which, as a court of equity may exercise substantial discretion, may choose not to confirm the plan. These can be no assurance that the proposed recapitalization plan will be confirmed.

Bank Waivers

Before NTL could commence negotiations with the unofficial committee of bondholders, it was necessary to obtain waivers from the lenders under NTL’s credit facilities. Effective March 8, 2002, these lenders granted waivers which, until March 29, 2002, provided that the commencement of negotiations with bondholders with a view to rescheduling its debt would not constitute an event of default under the credit facilities. Such initial waivers did not permit NTL to make to any of its bondholders an exchange or similar offer for NTL’s outstanding public notes or to enter into a legally binding agreement with the unofficial steering committee of bondholders, subject to some exceptions, without the consent of the lenders under the credit facilities. But for the initial waivers, the commencement of negotiations with bondholders would have been an event of default under the credit facilities.

Effective March 28, 2002, the lenders under the credit facilities agreed to amend the initial waivers. The amendments to the initial waivers extended the duration of the initial waivers to April 29, 2002 in the case of the UK credit facilities or May 14, 2002 in the case of the Cablecom credit facility, unless the interest payments missed by NTL Communications Corp. on April 1, 2002 were remedied or a sufficient number of bondholders agreed to forbear in respect of such non-payment, in which case, the UK credit facilities waivers were to be extended to May 14, 2002. As a condition to the amendment to the initial waivers, the UK lenders required NTL (Delaware), Inc. to loan £90 million to NTL (UK) Group, Inc. following receipt of the proceeds from the sale of NTL Australia. Such loan was actually made (with the approval of the lenders under the UK credit facilities) to NTL (UK) Group, Inc. and then on-lent to certain subsidiaries of NTL (UK) Group, Inc. This loan, which was made on April 5, 2002, is structurally senior to the outstanding public notes issued by NTL Communications Corp. and contractually senior to intra-group debt owed by NTL (UK) Group, Inc. to NTL Communications Corp. but contractually subordinated to the UK credit facilities. In connection with the amendments to the waivers, NTL affirmed the provisions of the initial waivers and agreed, among other things, not to commence voluntary dissolution proceedings, including proceedings under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, without the consent of these lenders.

As of the date of this Form 10-Q, there are no current waivers from NTL’s secured lenders and NTL is therefore in default under its UK credit facilities and the Cablecom credit facility. In connection with the proposed recapitalization plan, it is intended that the existing events of default under the credit facilities will be cured by amendment with effect from the effective date of the recapitalization, if it is approved by creditors and the Bankruptcy Court. On May 2, 2002, a memorandum was executed by NTL, a steering committee of its lending banks and the unofficial committee of its public bondholders indicating the parties’ agreement in principle (on a non-legally binding basis) to the terms of the proposed recapitalization and the terms on which the Company’s UK credit facilities should be amended and restated and with respect to certain matters relating to the sale of, or investment in, Cablecom.

Cablecom GmbH, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of NTL (Delaware), Inc., is the principal trading company of NTL’s Swiss group. NTL Triangle does not have any ownership interest in this group, although the condition of this group can indirectly impact NTL Triangle to the extent it impacts NTL Incorporated or NTL (Delaware), Inc., both parent companies of NTL Triangle. There were a number of technical defaults under the Swiss credit facility made available to Cablecom and various of its subsidiaries. In addition, as of December 31, 2001, Cablecom’s and six of its direct and indirect subsidiaries’ liabilities exceeded their respective assets. As a consequence, under Swiss law, those entities were deemed to be “overindebted”. This also constituted an event of default under the Cablecom credit facility, which entitled the lenders to accelerate repayment. Such an acceleration would have resulted in an event of default under NTL Incorporated’s and NTL (Delaware), Inc.’s 5.75% convertible subordinated notes due 2011 and 5.75% convertible subordinated notes due 2009.

Under Swiss law, the board of directors of an overindebted company is generally obliged to notify a judge of overindebtedness so that the judge may either institute insolvency proceedings or postpone such adjudication and take appropriate measures to preserve the value of the assets. An overindebted company is not required to notify a judge if the creditors of the overindebted entity subordinate their claims in the amount of the overindebtedness.

The problem of overindebtedness was resolved on June 26 and June 27, 2002 in certain of the overindebted subsidiaries when they were merged into Cablecom and other members of the Cablecom group. The remaining overindebted subsidiaries were not merged but the overindebtedness issue was resolved in those subsidiaries by way of subordination agreements which obviated any requirement to institute insolvency proceedings in respect of these companies.

At the end of April 2002 the defaults subsisting at that time were remedied or were waived by the restatement of the credit agreement and the grant of a waiver letter. However, conditions subsequent such as the grant of new security and the deposit of share certificates relating to minority shareholdings pledged to the banks were imposed by these documents and other new finance documents executed pursuant to the restatement.

Since the end of April 2002 the following defaults have occurred under the Cablecom finance documents: (1) The indentures issued by NTL (Delaware), Inc. and NTL Incorporated have become payable and have not been paid; (2) NTL (Delaware), Inc. has commenced negotiations with its creditors with a view to the general rescheduling of its indebtedness and has commenced proceedings under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code pursuant to which it intends to reorganize its debt; (3) NTL (Delaware), Inc. has liabilities which exceed the value of its assets and is unable to pay its debts as they fall due; (4) Cablecom was unable to satisfy the conditions to allow it to rollover revolving advances maturing in early July 2002. The revolving advances remained unpaid for several days until Cablecom was able to obtain the consent of the banks to waive the conditions to their rollover; (5) Certain of the conditions subsequent imposed by the restated credit agreement, the waiver letter and other finance documents executed pursuant to the restated credit agreement have yet to be fulfilled.

The outstanding defaults under the Cablecom finance documents entitle the facility agent to demand repayment of the loan and enforce the security granted to secure that loan. The facility agent has discretion to take those steps and can be compelled to take those steps by a group of banks holding at least 66-2/3% in aggregate of the loan.

Future developments in Cablecom’s business, as well as external factors, could result in a reemergence of the over indebtedness issue under Swiss law.

Interest Payments on Public Notes

NTL has substantial interest payment obligations under its existing indebtedness. NTL Incorporated and certain of its subsidiaries did not make their scheduled interest payments on the respective due dates as follows:
