NORTHLAND CABLE PROPERTIES EIGHT LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

 

Item 2.01.

Disposition of Assets

 

On April 29, 2016, Northland Cable Properties Eight Limited Partnership (the “Partnership”) completed the sale of the operating assets and franchise rights of its cable systems in and around the communities of Aliceville, Alabama and Swainsboro, Georgia (the “Systems”) to Northland Cable Television, Inc., (the “Buyer”) an affiliated party of the general partner. The Systems were sold at a price of approximately $3,041,000, of which the Partnership received approximately $2,738,000 at closing. The sales price reflects adjustments at closing for proration of certain revenues and expenses, allocation of the costs of sale. The funds received at closing reflect a holdback of $303,000, which is held in escrow (the “Holdback”). The Holdback is to be released to the Partnership six months from the closing of the transaction, subject to indemnification claims made, if any, by Buyer pursuant to the terms of the purchase and sale agreement. Net proceeds received at closing will be used to pay any outstanding obligations of the Partnership with the balance paid in distributions to the limited partners. Limited partners will receive a final distribution approximately six months from the closing date when the escrow proceeds are released.

 

The Systems represent substantially all of the remaining assets of the Partnership. The sale was made pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreement dated December 28, 2015.
