ITEM 8.01. OTHER EVENTS.
Charter Communications, Inc. ("Charter") is providing the information in Item 9.01 "Financial Statements and Exhibits" in connection with the contemplated acquisition of Bresnan Broadband Holdings, LLC and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Bresnan”). In February 2013, Charter and Charter Communications Operating, LLC entered into an agreement with a wholly owned subsidiary of Cablevision Systems Corporation to acquire Bresnan, for $1.625 billion in cash, subject to a working capital adjustment, a reduction for certain funded indebtedness of Bresnan and payment of any post-closing refunds of certain Montana property taxes paid under protest by Bresnan prior to the closing. Bresnan manages cable operating systems in Colorado, Montana, Wyoming and Utah that pass more than 660,000 homes and serve 304,000 video customers and 370,000 customer relationships. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2013. However, there can be no assurances the conditions to closing the transaction will be satisfied or waived or that the closing will occur at all. The pro forma financial information gives effect to the anticipated acquisition of Bresnan and is presented for informational purposes only.
