Report of Independent Accountants To the Board of Directors of AT&T Broadband LLC: In our opinion, the accompanying combined statements of assets, liabilities and parent's investment and the related combined statements of revenues and direct expenses and of parent's investment and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the assets, liabilities and parent's investment of Georgia Mediacom Systems (a combination of certain assets as defined in Note 1 to the combined financial statements) at December 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, and the excess of their revenues over direct expenses and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2000, and the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999 ("New Mediacom"), and the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998 ("Old Mediacom") in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companies' management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. As discussed in Note 1, effective March 9, 1999, AT&T Corp., the parent company of New Mediacom, acquired Tele-Communications, Inc., parent company of Old Mediacom, in a business combination accounted for as a purchase. As a result of the acquisition, the combined financial information for the periods after the acquisition is presented on a different basis than that for the periods before the acquisition and therefore, is not comparable.

GEORGIA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies On February 26, 2001, subsidiaries of AT&T Corp. ("AT&T") entered into an agreement with Mediacom Communications Corporation ("Mediacom") under which such subsidiaries agreed to sell certain cable television systems serving approximately 148,000 customers, as of December 31, 2000, located in Georgia, and wholly owned by various cable subsidiaries and partnerships of AT&T, to Mediacom (the "Georgia Mediacom Systems"). The accompanying combined financial statements include the specific accounts directly related to the activities of the Georgia Mediacom Systems. All significant inter-system accounts and transactions have been eliminated in combination. The combined net assets of the Georgia Mediacom Systems are referred to as "Parent's Investment." On March 9, 1999, AT&T acquired AT&T Broadband, LLC ("AT&T Broadband", formerly known as Tele-Communications, Inc.) in a merger (the "AT&T Merger"). In the AT&T Merger, AT&T Broadband became a subsidiary of AT&T. For financial reporting purposes, the AT&T Merger was deemed to have occurred on March 1, 1999. The combined financial statements for periods prior to March 1, 1999 include the Georgia Mediacom Systems that were then owned by Tele- Communications, Inc and are referred to herein as "Old Mediacom." The combined financial statements for periods subsequent to February 28, 1999 are referred to herein as "New Mediacom." Due to the application of purchase accounting in connection with the AT&T Merger, the predecessor combined financial statements of Old Mediacom are not comparable to the successor combined financial statements of New Mediacom. In the following text "Georgia Mediacom Systems" and "Systems" refers to both Old Mediacom and New Mediacom. Certain costs of AT&T Broadband are charged to the Systems based primarily on Georgia Mediacom Systems' number of customers (see Note 4). Although such allocations are not necessarily indicative of the costs that would have been incurred by the Georgia Mediacom Systems on a stand alone basis, management believes that the resulting allocated amounts are reasonable. The net assets of the Systems are held by various wholly-owned subsidiaries and partnerships of AT&T Broadband. Accordingly, the balance sheets of Georgia Mediacom Systems do not reflect all of the assets and liabilities that would be indicative of a stand-alone business. The assets, liabilities, excess of revenues over direct expenses and cash flows of Georgia Mediacom Systems could differ from reported results had Georgia Mediacom Systems operated autonomously or as an entity independent of AT&T. In particular, Georgia Mediacom Systems does not constitute a taxable entity, and therefore, no provision has been made for income tax expense or benefit in the accompanying combined financial statements. In addition, no interest expense incurred by AT&T and its subsidiaries on their debt obligations has been allocated to Georgia Mediacom Systems. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of deposits with banks and financial institutions that are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use and have maturities of less than 90 days. AT&T performs cash management functions on behalf of AT&T Broadband, including the Georgia Mediacom Systems. Substantially all of the Systems' cash balances are swept to AT&T on a daily basis, where they are managed and invested by AT&T. Transfers of cash to and from AT&T are reflected as a component of Parent's investment, with no interest income or expense reflected. Net transfers to or from AT&T are assumed to be settled in cash. AT&T's capital contributions for purchase business combinations to the Systems have been treated as non-cash transactions. F-7
GEORGIA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) Property and Equipment Property and equipment is stated at cost, including acquisition costs allocated to tangible assets acquired. Construction costs, labor and applicable overhead related to installations are capitalized. Interest capitalized was not significant for any periods presented. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis using estimated useful lives of 3 to 15 years for distribution systems and 3 to 40 years for support equipment and buildings. Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations, and renewals and additions are capitalized. At the time of ordinary retirements, sales or other dispositions of property, the original cost and cost of removal of such property are charged to accumulated depreciation, and salvage, if any, is credited thereto. Gains or losses are only recognized in connection with the sale of properties in their entirety. Intangible Assets Intangible assets consist primarily of franchise costs and other intangibles for customer relationships. Franchise costs represent the difference between AT&T Broadband's allocated historical cost of acquired assets of Georgia Mediacom Systems and amounts allocated to the tangible assets. Franchise costs and customer relationships are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 and 10 years, respectively. Costs incurred by Georgia Mediacom Systems in negotiating and renewing franchise agreements are amortized on a straight- line basis over the average lives of the franchise, generally 10 to 20 years. Impairment of Long-lived Assets Management of the Systems periodically reviews the carrying amounts of property and equipment and its identifiable intangible assets to determine whether current events or circumstances warrant adjustments to such carrying amounts. If an impairment adjustment is deemed necessary, based on an analysis of undiscounted cash flows, such loss is measured by the amount that the carrying value of such assets exceeds the fair value. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of assets; accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from such estimates. Assets to be disposed of are carried at the lower of their financial statement carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Revenue Recognition Revenue for customer fees, equipment rental, advertising, pay-per-view programming and revenue sharing agreements is recognized in the period that services are delivered. Installation revenue is recognized in the period the installation services are provided to the extent of direct selling costs. Any remaining amount is deferred and recognized over the estimated average period that customers are expected to remain connected to the cable distribution system. Statement of Cash Flows With the exception of certain system acquisitions, sales and asset transfers (see Note 3), transactions effected through the intercompany account due to (from) parent have been considered constructive cash receipts and payments for purposes of the combined statement of cash flows. Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation is accounted for in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The Systems follow the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." F-8
GEORGIA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) New Accounting Pronouncements In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 (SAB No. 101), "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." Registrants were required to apply the accounting and disclosures described in SAB No. 101 no later than the fourth quarter of 2000. The Systems are currently in compliance with the provisions of SAB No. 101. The adoption of SAB 101 did not have an impact on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Systems. Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. Intangibles Intangibles are summarized as follows: December 31, ----------------- 2000 1999 -------- -------- (Amounts in Thousands) Franchise costs......................................... $223,354 $223,354 Other intangibles....................................... 16,078 16,078 -------- -------- 239,432 239,432 Less accumulated amortization........................... 14,739 7,785 -------- -------- Intangibles, net........................................ $224,693 $231,647 ======== ======== Amortization expense on franchise costs was $4,902,000, $4,084,000, $526,000 and $2,942,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000, the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999, the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998, respectively. Amortization expense for other intangibles was $2,052,000, $3,701,000, $0 and $0 for the year ended December 31, 2000, the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999, the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998, respectively. 3. Business Combinations AT&T Merger The AT&T Merger has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and has been deemed to be effective as of March 1, 1999 for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Georgia Mediacom Systems' portion of the allocation of AT&T's purchase price to acquire AT&T Broadband has been reflected in the combined financial statements of Georgia Mediacom Systems as of March 1, 1999. F-9
GEORGIA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) The following table reflects the March 1, 1999 assets and liabilities of New Mediacom, as adjusted to give effect for the purchase accounting adjustments resulting from the allocation to the net assets of the Systems of AT&T's purchase price to acquire AT&T Broadband: (Amounts in Thousands) ---------- Assets Cash......................................................... $ 1,185 Trade and other receivables.................................. 2,605 Property and equipment....................................... 56,253 Intangible assets............................................ 239,432 Other assets................................................. 122 -------- Total assets............................................... $299,597 ======== Liabilities and Parent's Investment Accounts payable and accrued expenses........................ $ 2,004 Parent's investment.......................................... 297,593 -------- Total liabilities and parent's investment.................. $299,597 ======== As a result of the application of purchase accounting, Georgia Mediacom Systems recorded its assets and liabilities at their fair values on March 1, 1999. The most significant purchase accounting adjustments related to intangible assets. The intangible assets include $223.3 million assigned to Georgia Mediacom Systems' franchise costs and $16.1 million related to the value attributed to customer relationships. Acquisition During January of 1998, Tele-Communications, Inc. paid cash to acquire a cable television system serving customers located in Georgia (the "1998 Acquisition"). The 1998 Acquisition was deemed to be effective as of January 1, 1998 for financial reporting purposes and the acquired system was recorded using the purchase method of accounting. The cable television system acquired by Tele-Communications, Inc. in the 1998 Exchange is included in the accompanying combined financial results of Georgia Mediacom Systems and is reflected as a contribution from Tele- Communications, Inc. Accordingly, the assets, liabilities, revenues and direct expenses of such system have been reflected in the combined financial statements of Georgia Mediacom Systems since January 1, 1998. F-10
GEORGIA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) The following table reflects the January 1, 1998 assets and liabilities of the 1998 Acquisition system contributed from Tele-Communications, Inc. to Georgia Mediacom Systems: (Amounts in Thousands) ----------- Assets Property and equipment...................................... $ 1,076 Intangible assets........................................... 57,005 ------- Total assets.............................................. $58,081 ======= Liabilities and Parent's Investment Parent's investment......................................... $58,081 ------- Total liabilities and Parent's investment................. $58,081 ======= The above operating assets and liabilities have been included in the accompanying combined financial statements at their fair values at January 1, 1998. The most significant purchase accounting adjustments related to intangible assets. The intangible assets represent franchise costs that are being amortized over 40 years. Pro Forma Operating Results (unaudited) The following unaudited combined revenues and excess of revenues over direct expenses were prepared assuming the AT&T Merger occurred on January 1, 1998. These pro forma amounts are not necessarily indicative of operating results that would have occurred if the AT&T Merger had occurred on January 1, 1998, nor does it intend to be a projection of future results: Old Mediacom ------------------------- Period from January 1 to Year ended February 28, December 31, 1999 1998 ------------ ------------ (Amounts in Thousands) Revenue.......................................... $11,990 $70,375 Excess of revenues over direct expenses.......... $ 768 $ 5,900 4.

F-11
GEORGIA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) As a result of AT&T Broadband's 100% ownership of Georgia Mediacom Systems, transfers from parent amounts have been classified as a component of Parent's investment in the accompanying combined balance sheets. Georgia Mediacom Systems purchases, at AT&T Broadband's cost, certain pay television and other programming through a certain indirect subsidiary of AT&T Broadband. Charges for such programming are included in operating expenses in the accompanying combined financial statements. Certain subsidiaries of AT&T Broadband provide administrative services to Georgia Mediacom Systems and have assumed managerial responsibility of Georgia Mediacom Systems' cable television system operations and construction. As compensation for these services, Georgia Mediacom Systems pay a monthly management fee calculated on a per-subscriber basis. The parent transfers and expense allocation activity consists of the following: New Mediacom Old Mediacom ------------------------- ------------------------- Period from Period from Year ended March 1 to January 1 to Year ended December 31, December 31, February 28, December 31, 2000 1999 1999 1998 ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ (Amounts in Thousands) Beginning of period...................................................... $310,668 $297,593 $165,752 $149,812 Programming charges.................................................... 23,189 17,334 3,296 17,939 Management fees........................................................ 3,518 2,365 308 2,463 Cable system acquisitions.............................................. -- -- -- 58,081 Cash transfers.........................................................

Employee Benefit and Stock-Based Compensation Plans AT&T sponsors savings plans for the majority of its employees. Prior to the AT&T Merger, Tele-Communications, Inc. also sponsored savings plans for the majority of its employees. The plans allow employees to contribute a portion of their pre-tax and/or after-tax income in accordance with specified guidelines. Employee contributions are matched up to certain limits. AT&T Broadband contributions for employees of Georgia Mediacom Systems amounted to $428,000 and $595,000 for the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 2000, respectively. Tele-Communications, Inc. contributions for employees of Georgia Mediacom Systems amounted to $496,000 and $86,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998 and the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999, respectively. Under AT&T's 1997 Long-term Incentive Program (the "Program"), which was effective June 1, 1997, and amended on May 19, 1999 and March 14, 2000, AT&T grants stock options, performance shares, restricted stock and other awards on AT&T common stock as well as stock options on the AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock. Employees of Georgia Mediacom Systems were eligible to receive stock options under this plan effective with the AT&T Merger (see Note 1). Under the Program, there were 150 million shares of AT&T common stock available for grant with a maximum of 22.5 million common shares that could be used for awards other than stock options. Beginning with January 1, 2000, the remaining shares available for grant at December 31 of the prior year, plus 1.75% of the shares of AT&T common stock outstanding on January 1 of each year, become available for grant. There is a maximum of 37.5 million shares that may be used for awards other than stock options. The exercise price of any stock option is equal to the stock price when the option is granted. Generally, the options vest over three or four years and are exercisable up to 10 years from the date of grant. F-12
GEORGIA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) Under the AT&T 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan"), which was effective July 1, 1996, AT&T is authorized to sell up to 75 million shares of AT&T common stock to its eligible employees. Under the terms of the Plan, employees may have up to 10% of their earnings withheld to purchase AT&T's common stock. The purchase price of the stock on the date of exercise is 85% of the average high and low sale prices of shares on the New York Stock Exchange for that day. The Systems apply Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations in accounting for its plans. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for stock- based compensation plans for the Georgia Mediacom Systems. The Systems have adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." If the Systems had elected to recognize compensation costs based on the fair value at the date of grant for AT&T awards granted to Systems' employees in 2000, consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, Georgia Mediacom Systems excess of direct expenses over revenues would have been adjusted to reflect additional compensation expense resulting in the following pro forma amounts: Year ended December 31, 2000 ------------ (Amounts in Thousands) Excess of direct expenses over revenues...................... $(270) AT&T granted approximately 47,250 and 15,750 stock options to Georgia Mediacom Systems employees during 2000 for AT&T stock and AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock, respectively. At the date of grant, the exercise price for AT&T options and AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock options granted to AT&T Broadband employees during 2000 was $33.81 and $27.56, respectively. The fair value at date of grant for AT&T options and AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock options granted to AT&T Broadband employees during 2000 was $10.59 and $11.74, respectively, and was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following assumptions were applied for 2000 for the AT&T options and the AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock options: (i) expected dividend yield of 1.7% and 0%, respectively, (ii) expected volatility rate of 34% and 55%, respectively, (iii) risk-free interest rate of 6.24% and 6.2%, respectively, and (iv) expected life of 4 and 3 years, respectively. 6. Commitments and Contingencies The Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992 (the "1992 Cable Act") imposed certain rate regulations on the cable television industry. Under the 1992 Cable Act, all cable systems are subject to rate regulation, unless they face "effective competition," as defined by the 1992 Cable Act and expanded in the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the "1996 Act"), in their local franchise area. Although the Federal Communications Commission (the "FCC") has established regulations required by the 1992 Cable Act, local government units (commonly referred to as local franchising authorities) are primarily responsible for administering the regulation of a cable system's basic service tier. Management of the Systems believes that it has complied in all material respects with the provisions of the 1992 Cable Act and the 1996 Act, including its rate setting provisions. If, as a result of the review process, a system cannot substantiate its rates, it could be required to retroactively reduce its rates to the appropriate benchmark and refund the excess portion of rates received. F-13
GEORGIA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) Certain plaintiffs have filed or threatened separate class action complaints against cable systems across the United States alleging that the systems' delinquency constitutes an invalid liquidated damage provision, a breach of contract and violates local consumer protection statutes. Plaintiffs seek recovery of all late fees paid to the subject systems as a class purporting to consist of all subscribers who were assessed such fees during the applicable limitation period, plus attorney fees and costs. In December 2000, a settlement agreement was approved by the Court with respect to certain late fee class action complaints, which involves certain subscribers of Georgia Mediacom Systems. Certain other plaintiff suits, involving Georgia Mediacom Systems, remain unresolved. The December 2000 and any future settlements are not expected to have a material impact on Georgia Mediacom Systems' financial condition or excess of revenues over direct expenses. Georgia Mediacom Systems have contingent liabilities related to legal proceedings and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Although it is reasonably possible Georgia Mediacom Systems may incur losses upon conclusion of such matters, an estimate of any loss or range of loss cannot be made. Georgia Mediacom Systems leases business offices, has entered into pole rental agreements and uses certain equipment under lease arrangements. Rental expense for such arrangements amounted to $1,085,000, $718,000, $203,000 and $615,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000, the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999, the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998, respectively. Future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases for each of the next five years are summarized as follows: (Amounts in December 31, Thousands) ------------ ----------- 2001......................................................... $ 898 2002......................................................... 977 2003......................................................... 1,017 2004......................................................... 937 2005......................................................... 866 Thereafter................................................... 1,273 It is expected that, in the normal course of business, expiring leases will be renewed or replaced by leases on other properties.

GEORGIA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) 1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies On February 26, 2001, subsidiaries of AT&T Corp. ("AT&T") entered into an agreement with Mediacom Communications Corporation ("Mediacom") under which such subsidiaries agreed to sell certain cable television systems serving approximately 148,000 customers, as of March 31, 2001, located in Georgia, and wholly owned by various cable subsidiaries and partnerships of AT&T, to Mediacom (the "Georgia Mediacom Systems" or the "Systems"). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited combined financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods presented by the Systems. The excess (shortfall) of revenue over direct expenses for any interim period is not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The unaudited combined financial statements and footnote disclosures should be read in conjunction with the audited combined financial statements and related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2000. The accompanying unaudited combined financial statements include the specific accounts directly related to the activities of the Georgia Mediacom Systems. All significant inter-system accounts and transactions have been eliminated in combination. The combined net assets of the Georgia Mediacom Systems are referred to as "Parent's Investment." On March 9, 1999, AT&T acquired AT&T Broadband, LLC ("AT&T Broadband", formerly known as Tele-Communications, Inc.) in a merger (the "AT&T Merger"). In the AT&T Merger, AT&T Broadband became a subsidiary of AT&T. For financial reporting purposes, the AT&T Merger was deemed to have occurred on March 1, 1999. Certain costs of AT&T Broadband are charged to the Systems based primarily on Georgia Mediacom Systems' number of customers (see Note 3). Although such allocations are not necessarily indicative of the costs that would have been incurred by the Georgia Mediacom Systems on a stand alone basis, management believes that the resulting allocated amounts are reasonable. The net assets of the Systems are held by various wholly-owned subsidiaries and partnerships of AT&T Broadband. Accordingly, the unaudited financial statements of Georgia Mediacom Systems do not reflect all of the assets and liabilities that would be indicative of a stand-alone business. The assets, liabilities, excess of revenue over direct expenses and cash flows of Georgia Mediacom Systems could differ from reported results had Georgia Mediacom Systems operated autonomously or as an entity independent of AT&T. In particular, Georgia Mediacom Systems does not constitute a taxable entity, and therefore, no provision has been made for income tax expense or benefit in the accompanying unaudited combined financial statements. In addition, no interest expense incurred by AT&T and its subsidiaries on their debt obligations has been allocated to Georgia Mediacom Systems. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of deposits with banks and financial institutions that are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use and have maturities of less than 90 days. AT&T performs cash management functions on behalf of AT&T Broadband, including the Georgia Mediacom Systems. Substantially all of the Systems' cash balances are swept to AT&T on a daily basis, where they are managed and invested by AT&T. Transfers of cash to and from AT&T are reflected as a component of F-18
GEORGIA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) (unaudited) Parent's investment, with no interest income or expense reflected. Net transfers to or from AT&T are assumed to be settled in cash. AT&T's capital contributions for purchase business combinations to the Systems have been treated as non-cash transactions. Property and Equipment Property and equipment is stated at cost, including acquisition costs allocated to tangible assets acquired. Construction costs, labor and applicable overhead related to installations are capitalized. Interest capitalized was not significant for any periods presented. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis using estimated useful lives of 3 to 15 years for distribution systems and 3 to 40 years for support equipment and buildings. Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations, and renewals and additions are capitalized. At the time of ordinary retirements, sales or other dispositions of property, the original cost and cost of removal of such property are charged to accumulated depreciation, and salvage, if any, is credited thereto. Gains or losses are only recognized in connection with the sale of properties in their entirety. Intangible Assets Intangible assets consist primarily of franchise costs and other intangibles for customer relationships. Franchise costs represent the difference between AT&T Broadband's allocated historical cost of acquired assets of Georgia Mediacom Systems and amounts allocated to the tangible assets. Franchise costs and customer relationships are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 and 10 years, respectively. Costs incurred by Georgia Mediacom Systems in negotiating and renewing franchise agreements are amortized on a straight- line basis over the average lives of the franchise, generally 10 to 20 years. Impairment of Long-lived Assets Management of the Systems periodically reviews the carrying amounts of property and equipment and its identifiable intangible assets to determine whether current events or circumstances warrant adjustments to such carrying amounts. If an impairment adjustment is deemed necessary, based on an analysis of undiscounted cash flows, such loss is measured by the amount that the carrying value of such assets exceeds the fair value. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of assets; accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from such estimates. Assets to be disposed of are carried at the lower of their financial statement carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Revenue Recognition Revenue for customer fees, equipment rental, advertising, pay-per-view programming and revenue sharing agreements is recognized in the period that services are delivered. Installation revenue is recognized in the period the installation services are provided to the extent of direct selling costs. Any remaining amount is deferred and recognized over the estimated average period that customers are expected to remain connected to the cable distribution system. Statement of Cash Flows Transactions effected through the intercompany account due to (from) parent have been considered constructive cash receipts and payments for purposes of the combined statement of cash flows. F-19
GEORGIA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) (unaudited) Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation is accounted for in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The Systems follow the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. Intangibles Intangibles are summarized as follows: March 31, ----------------- 2001 2000 -------- -------- (Amounts in Thousands) Franchise costs......................................... $223,354 $223,354 Other intangibles....................................... 16,078 16,078 -------- -------- 239,432 239,432 Less accumulated amortization........................... 16,478 9,524 -------- -------- Intangibles, net........................................ $222,954 $229,908 ======== ======== Amortization expense on franchise costs was $1,225,500 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. Amortization expense for other intangibles was $513,500 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. 3. Parent's Investment Parent's investment in Georgia Mediacom Systems is summarized as follows: March 31, ------------------ 2001 2000 --------- -------- (Amounts in Thousands) Transfers from parent, net............................ $ 314,700 $313,390 Cumulative excess of revenue over direct expenses since March 1, 1999.................................. 5,089 7,006 --------- -------- $ 319,789 $320,396 ========= ======== The non-interest bearing transfers from parent includes AT&T Broadband's equity in acquired systems, programming charges, management fees and advances for operations, acquisitions and construction costs, as well as the amounts charged as a result of the allocation of certain costs from AT&T. F-20
GEORGIA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) (unaudited) As a result of AT&T Broadband's 100% ownership of Georgia Mediacom Systems, transfers from parent amounts have been classified as a component of Parent's investment in the accompanying combined balance sheets. Georgia Mediacom Systems purchases, at AT&T Broadband's cost, certain pay television and other programming through a certain indirect subsidiary of AT&T Broadband. Charges for such programming are included in operating expenses in the accompanying combined financial statements. Certain subsidiaries of AT&T Broadband provide administrative services to Georgia Mediacom Systems and have assumed managerial responsibility of Georgia Mediacom Systems' cable television system operations and construction. As compensation for these services, Georgia Mediacom Systems pay a monthly management fee calculated on a per-subscriber basis. The parent transfers and expense allocation activity consists of the following: Three months ended March 31, ------------------ 2001 2000 -------- -------- (Amounts in Thousands) Beginning of period.................................... $316,893 $310,668 Programming charges.................................. 6,347 5,723 Management fees...................................... 1,417 663 Cash transfers....................................... (9,957) (3,664) -------- -------- End of period.......................................... $314,700 $313,390 ======== ======== 4. Employee Benefit and Stock-Based Compensation Plans AT&T sponsors savings plans for the majority of its employees. The plan allows employees to contribute a portion of their pre-tax and/or after-tax income in accordance with specified guidelines. Employee contributions are matched up to certain limits. AT&T Broadband contributions for employees of Georgia Mediacom Systems amounted to $89,000 and $137,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Under AT&T's 1997 Long-term Incentive Program (the "Program"), which was amended March 14, 2000, AT&T grants stock options, performance shares, restricted stock and other awards on AT&T common stock as well as stock options on the AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock. Employees of Georgia Mediacom Systems were eligible to receive stock options under this plan effective with the AT&T Merger (see Note 1). Under the Program, there were 150 million shares of AT&T common stock available for grant with a maximum of 22.5 million common shares that could be used for awards other than stock options. Beginning with January 1, 2000, the remaining shares available for grant at December 31 of the prior year, plus 1.75% of the shares of AT&T common stock outstanding on January 1 of each year, become available for grant. There is a maximum of 37.5 million shares that may be used for awards other than stock options. The exercise price of any stock option is equal to the stock price when the option is granted. Generally, the options vest over three or four years and are exercisable up to 10 years from the date of grant. There were no stock option grants to the Systems' employees under this plan during the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. Under the AT&T 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan"), which was effective July 1, 1996, AT&T is authorized to sell up to 75 million shares of AT&T common stock to its eligible employees. Under the terms of the Plan, employees may have up to 10% of their earnings withheld to purchase AT&T's common F-21
GEORGIA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) (unaudited) stock. The purchase price of the stock on the date of exercise is 85% of the average high and low sale prices of shares on the New York Stock Exchange for that day. Employees of Georgia Mediacom Systems were eligible to participate in the Plan effective with the AT&T Merger (see Note 1). 5. Restructuring charge As part of a cost reduction plan undertaken by AT&T Broadband in 2001, certain employees of the Systems were terminated, resulting in a restructuring charge of approximately $570,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2001. Terminated employees primarily performed customer service and field operations functions. The restructuring charge consists of severance and other employee benefits. As of March 31, 2001, $311,000 of the charge has been paid in cash, with the balance expected to be paid within 30 days. 6. Commitments and Contingencies The Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992 (the "1992 Cable Act") imposed certain rate regulations on the cable television industry. Under the 1992 Cable Act, all cable systems are subject to rate regulation, unless they face "effective competition," as defined by the 1992 Cable Act and expanded in the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the "1996 Act"), in their local franchise area. Although the Federal Communications Commission (the "FCC") has established regulations required by the 1992 Cable Act, local government units (commonly referred to as local franchising authorities) are primarily responsible for administering the regulation of a cable system's basic service tier. Management of the Systems believes that it has complied in all material respects with the provisions of the 1992 Cable Act and the 1996 Act, including its rate setting provisions. If, as a result of the review process, a system cannot substantiate its rates, it could be required to retroactively reduce its rates to the appropriate benchmark and refund the excess portion of rates received. Certain plaintiffs have filed or threatened separate class action complaints against cable systems across the United States alleging that the systems' delinquency constitutes an invalid liquidated damage provision, a breach of contract and violates local consumer protection statutes. Plaintiffs seek recovery of all late fees paid to the subject systems as a class purporting to consist of all subscribers who were assessed such fees during the applicable limitation period, plus attorney fees and costs. In December 2000, a settlement agreement was approved by the Court with respect to certain late fee class action complaints, which involves certain subscribers of Georgia Mediacom Systems. Certain other plaintiff suits, involving Georgia Mediacom Systems, remain unresolved. The December 2000 settlement and any future settlements are not expected to have a material impact on Georgia Mediacom Systems' financial condition or excess (shortfall) of revenue over direct expenses. Georgia Mediacom Systems have contingent liabilities related to legal proceedings and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Although it is reasonably possible Georgia Mediacom Systems may incur losses upon conclusion of such matters, an estimate of any loss or range of loss cannot be made. Georgia Mediacom Systems leases business offices, has entered into pole rental agreements and uses certain equipment under operating lease arrangements. Rental expense for such arrangements amounted to $209,000 and $295,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. It is expected that, in the normal course of business, expiring leases will be renewed or replaced by leases on other properties. F-22
Report of Independent Accountants To the Board of Directors of AT&T Broadband LLC: In our opinion, the accompanying combined statements of assets, liabilities and parent's investment and the related combined statements of revenues and direct expenses and of parent's investment and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the assets, liabilities and parent's investment of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems (a combination of certain assets as defined in Note 1 to the combined financial statements) at December 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, and the excess of their revenues over direct expenses and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2000, and the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999 ("New Mediacom"), and the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998 ("Old Mediacom") in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companies' management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. As discussed in Note 1, effective March 9, 1999, AT&T Corp., the parent company of New Mediacom, acquired Tele-Communications, Inc., parent company of Old Mediacom, in a business combination accounted for as a purchase. As a result of the acquisition, the combined financial information for the periods after the acquisition is presented on a different basis than that for the periods before the acquisition and therefore, is not comparable.

SOUTHERN ILLINOIS MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies On February 26, 2001, subsidiaries of AT&T Corp. ("AT&T") entered into an agreement with Mediacom Communications Corporation ("Mediacom") under which such subsidiaries agreed to sell certain cable television systems serving approximately 55,000 customers, as of December 31, 2000, located primarily in Southern Illinois, and wholly owned by various cable subsidiaries and partnerships of AT&T, to Mediacom (the "Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems"). The accompanying combined financial statements include the specific accounts directly related to the activities of the Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems. All significant inter-system accounts and transactions have been eliminated in combination. The combined net assets of the Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems are referred to as "Parent's Investment." On March 9, 1999, AT&T acquired AT&T Broadband, LLC ("AT&T Broadband", formerly known as Tele-Communications, Inc.) in a merger (the "AT&T Merger"). In the AT&T Merger, AT&T Broadband became a subsidiary of AT&T. For financial reporting purposes, the AT&T Merger was deemed to have occurred on March 1, 1999. The combined financial statements for periods prior to March 1, 1999 include the Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems that were then owned by Tele- Communications, Inc. and are referred to herein as "Old Mediacom." The combined financial statements for periods subsequent to February 28, 1999 are referred to herein as "New Mediacom." Due to the application of purchase accounting in connection with the AT&T Merger, the predecessor combined financial statements of Old Mediacom are not comparable to the successor combined financial statements of New Mediacom. In the following text, "Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems" and "Systems" refers to both Old Mediacom and New Mediacom. As further described in Note 3, certain of the cable systems included in the combined financial statements for periods after March 1, 1999 were acquired by AT&T and its subsidiaries in 1999. The Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems combined financial statements include the assets, liabilities and results of operations for such cable systems since their acquisition date. The net assets of the Systems are held by various wholly-owned subsidiaries and partnerships of AT&T Broadband. Accordingly, the balance sheets of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems do not reflect all of the assets and liabilities that would be indicative of a stand-alone business. The assets, liabilities, excess of revenues over direct expenses and cash flows of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems could differ from reported results had Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems operated autonomously or as an entity independent of AT&T. In particular, Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems does not constitute a taxable entity, and therefore, no provision has been made for income tax expense or benefit in the accompanying combined financial statements. In addition, no interest expense incurred by AT&T and its subsidiaries on their debt obligations has been allocated to Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems. Certain costs of AT&T Broadband are charged to the Systems based primarily on Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems' number of customers (see Note 4). Although such allocations are not necessarily indicative of the costs that would have been incurred by the Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems on a stand alone basis, management believes that the resulting allocated amounts are reasonable. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of deposits with banks and financial institutions that are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use and have maturities of less than 90 days. AT&T performs cash management functions on behalf of AT&T Broadband, including the Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems. Substantially all of the Systems' cash balances are swept to AT&T on a daily basis, F-27
SOUTHERN ILLINOIS MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) where they are managed and invested by AT&T. Transfers of cash to and from AT&T are reflected as a component of Parent's investment, with no interest income or expense reflected. Net transfers to or from AT&T are assumed to be settled in cash. AT&T's capital contributions for purchase business combinations to the Systems have been treated as non-cash transactions. Property and Equipment Property and equipment is stated at cost, including acquisition costs allocated to tangible assets acquired. Construction costs, labor and applicable overhead related to installations are capitalized. Interest capitalized was not significant for any periods presented. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis using estimated useful lives of 3 to 15 years for distribution systems and 3 to 40 years for support equipment and buildings. Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations, and renewals and additions are capitalized. At the time of ordinary retirements, sales or other dispositions of property, the original cost and cost of removal of such property are charged to accumulated depreciation, and salvage, if any, is credited thereto. Gains or losses are only recognized in connection with the sale of properties in their entirety. Intangible Assets Intangible assets consist primarily of franchise costs and intangibles for customer relationships. Franchise costs represent the difference between AT&T Broadband's allocated historical cost of acquired assets of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems and amounts allocated to the tangible assets. Franchise costs and customer relationships are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 and 10 years, respectively. Costs incurred by Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems in negotiating and renewing franchise agreements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the average lives of the franchise, generally 10 to 20 years. Impairment of Long-lived Assets Management of the Systems periodically reviews the carrying amounts of property and equipment and its identifiable intangible assets to determine whether current events or circumstances warrant adjustments to such carrying amounts. If an impairment adjustment is deemed necessary, based on an analysis of undiscounted cash flows, such loss is measured by the amount that the carrying value of such assets exceeds the fair value. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of assets; accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from such estimates. Assets to be disposed of are carried at the lower of their financial statement carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Revenue Recognition Revenue for customer fees, equipment rental, advertising, pay-per-view programming and revenue sharing agreements is recognized in the period that services are delivered. Installation revenue is recognized in the period the installation services are provided to the extent of direct selling costs. Any remaining amount is deferred and recognized over the estimated average period that customers are expected to remain connected to the cable distribution system. Statement of Cash Flows With the exception of certain system acquisitions, sales and asset transfers (see Note 3), transactions effected through the intercompany account due to (from) parent have been considered constructive cash receipts and payments for purposes of the combined statement of cash flows. F-28
SOUTHERN ILLINOIS MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation is accounted for in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The Systems follow the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." New Accounting Pronouncements In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 (SAB No. 101), "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." Registrants were required to apply the accounting and disclosures described in SAB No. 101 no later than the fourth quarter of 2000. The Systems are currently in compliance with the provisions of SAB No. 101. The adoption of SAB 101 did not have an impact on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Systems. Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. Intangibles Intangibles are summarized as follows: December 31, ----------------------- 2000 1999 ----------- ----------- (Amounts in Thousands) Franchise costs..................................... $ 166,559 $ 166,559 Other intangibles................................... 7,020 7,020 ----------- ----------- 173,579 173,579 Less accumulated amortization....................... 8,621 3,882 ----------- ----------- Intangibles, net.................................. $ 164,958 $ 169,697 =========== =========== Amortization expense on franchise costs was $3,987,000, $3,255,000, $115,000 and $694,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000, the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999, the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998, respectively. Amortization expense for other intangibles was $752,000, $627,000, $0 and $0 for the year ended December 31, 2000, the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999, the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998, respectively. 3. Business Combinations AT&T Merger The AT&T Merger has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and has been deemed to be effective as of March 1, 1999 for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems' portion of the allocation of AT&T's purchase price to acquire AT&T Broadband has been reflected in the combined financial statements of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems as of March 1, 1999. F-29
SOUTHERN ILLINOIS MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) The following table reflects the March 1, 1999 assets and liabilities of New Mediacom, as adjusted to give effect for the purchase accounting adjustments resulting from the allocation to the net assets of the Systems of AT&T's purchase price to acquire AT&T Broadband: (Amounts in Thousands) ----------- Assets Cash......................................................... $ 471 Trade and other receivables.................................. 1,364 Property and equipment....................................... 13,518 Intangible assets............................................ 158,338 Other assets................................................. 75 -------- Total assets............................................... $173,766 ======== Liabilities and Parent's Investment Accounts payable and accrued expenses........................ $ 775 Parent's investment.......................................... 172,991 -------- Total liabilities and parent's investment.................. $173,766 ======== As a result of the application of purchase accounting, Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems recorded its assets and liabilities at their fair values on March 1, 1999. The most significant purchase accounting adjustments related to intangible assets. The intangible assets include $151.3 million assigned to Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems' franchise costs and $7.0 million related to the value attributed to customer relationships. Exchange During June of 1999, AT&T Broadband paid cash and traded cable television systems in exchange for cable television systems serving customers located in Southern Illinois (the "1999 Exchange"). The 1999 Exchange was consummated pursuant to an agreement that was executed in November 1998. The 1999 Exchange was deemed to be effective as of June 1, 1999 for financial reporting purposes and the acquired systems were recorded using the purchase method of accounting. Certain of the cable television systems acquired by AT&T Broadband in the 1999 Exchange are included in the accompanying combined financial results of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems and are reflected as a contribution from AT&T Broadband. Accordingly, the assets, liabilities, revenues and direct expenses of such systems have been reflected in the combined financial statements of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems since June 1, 1999. F-30
SOUTHERN ILLINOIS MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) The following table reflects the June 1, 1999 assets and liabilities of the 1999 Exchange systems contributed from AT&T Broadband to Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems: (Amounts in Thousands) ----------- Assets Property and equipment....................................... $ 8,284 Intangible assets............................................ 15,241 ------- Total assets............................................... $23,525 ======= Liabilities and parent's Investment Parent's investment.......................................... $23,525 ------- Total liabilities and parent's investment.................. $23,525 ======= The above operating assets and liabilities have been included in the accompanying combined financial statements at their fair values at June 1, 1999. The most significant purchase accounting adjustments related to intangible assets. The intangible assets include approximately $15.2 million of franchise costs that are being amortized over 40 years. Pro Forma Operating Results (unaudited) The following unaudited combined revenues and excess of revenues over direct expenses were prepared assuming the AT&T Merger and the 1999 Exchange occurred on January 1, 1998. These pro forma amounts are not necessarily indicative of operating results that would have occurred if the AT&T Merger and the 1999 Exchange had occurred on January 1, 1998, nor does it intend to be a projection of future results: New Mediacom Old Mediacom ------------ ------------------------- Period from Period from March 1 to January 1 to Year ended December 31, February 28, December 31, 1999 1999 1998 ------------ ------------ ------------ (Amounts in Thousands) Revenue............................. $24,195 $4,393 $26,126 Excess of revenues over direct expenses........................... $ 2,099 $ 60 $ 2,315 F-31
SOUTHERN ILLINOIS MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) 4. Parent's Investment Parent's investment in Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems at December 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999 is summarized as follows: December 31, ----------------- 2000 1999 -------- -------- (Amounts in Thousands) Transfers from parent, net............................... $177,143 $188,084 Cumulative excess of revenues over direct expenses since March 1, 1999........................................... 5,757 2,437 -------- -------- $182,900 $190,521 ======== ======== The non-interest bearing transfers from parent includes AT&T Broadband's equity in acquired systems, programming charges, management fees and advances for operations, acquisitions and construction costs, as well as the amounts charged as a result of the allocation of certain costs from AT&T. As a result of AT&T Broadband's 100% ownership of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems, transfers from parent amounts have been classified as a component of Parent's investment in the accompanying combined balance sheets. Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems purchases, at AT&T Broadband's cost, certain pay television and other programming through a certain indirect subsidiary of AT&T Broadband. Charges for such programming are included in operating expenses in the accompanying combined financial statements. Certain subsidiaries of AT&T Broadband provide administrative services to Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems and have assumed managerial responsibility of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems' cable television system operations and construction. As compensation for these services, Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems pay a monthly management fee calculated on a per-subscriber basis. The parent transfers and expense allocation activity consist of the following: New Mediacom Old Mediacom ------------------------- ------------------------- Period from Period from Year ended March 1 to January 1 to Year ended December 31, December 31, February 28, December 31, 2000 1999 1999 1998 ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ (Amounts in Thousands) Beginning of period...................................................... $188,084 $172,991 $31,419 $ 39,671 Programming charges.................................................... 7,527 5,548 1,100 5,829 Management fees........................................................ 1,634 1,216 292 852 Cable system acquisitions.............................................. -- 23,525 -- -- Cash transfers.........................................................

SOUTHERN ILLINOIS MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) 5. Employee Benefit and Stock-Based Compensation Plans AT&T sponsors savings plans for the majority of its employees. Prior to the AT&T Merger, Tele-Communications, Inc. also sponsored savings plans for the majority of its employees. The plans allow employees to contribute a portion of their pre-tax and/or after-tax income in accordance with specified guidelines. Employee contributions are matched up to certain limits. AT&T Broadband contributions for employees of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems amounted to $228,000 and $283,000 for the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 2000, respectively. Tele-Communications, Inc. contributions for employees of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems amounted to $263,000 and $45,600 for the year ended December 31, 1998 and the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999, respectively. Under AT&T's 1997 Long-term Incentive Program (the "Program"), which was effective June 1, 1997, and amended on May 19, 1999 and March 14, 2000, AT&T grants stock options, performance shares, restricted stock and other awards on AT&T common stock as well as stock options on the AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock. Employees of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems were eligible to receive stock options under this plan effective with the AT&T Merger (see Note 1). Under the Program, there were 150 million shares of AT&T common stock available for grant with a maximum of 22.5 million common shares that could be used for awards other than stock options. Beginning with January 1, 2000, the remaining shares available for grant at December 31 of the prior year, plus 1.75% of the shares of AT&T common stock outstanding on January 1 of each year, become available for grant. There is a maximum of 37.5 million shares that may be used for awards other than stock options. The exercise price of any stock option is equal to the stock price when the option is granted. Generally, the options vest over three or four years and are exercisable up to 10 years from the date of grant. Under the AT&T 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan"), which was effective July 1, 1996, AT&T is authorized to sell up to 75 million shares of AT&T common stock to its eligible employees. Under the terms of the Plan, employees may have up to 10% of their earnings withheld to purchase AT&T's common stock. The purchase price of the stock on the date of exercise is 85% of the average high and low sale prices of shares on the New York Stock Exchange for that day. The Systems apply Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations in accounting for its plans. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for stock- based compensation plans for the Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems. The Systems have adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." If the Systems had elected to recognize compensation costs based on the fair value at the date of grant for AT&T awards granted to Systems' employees in 2000, consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems' excess revenues over direct expenses would have been adjusted to reflect additional compensation expense resulting in the following pro forma amounts: Year ended December 31, 2000 ------------ (Amounts in Thousands) Excess of revenues over direct expenses...................... $3,063 F-33
SOUTHERN ILLINOIS MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) AT&T granted approximately 17,700 and 5,900 stock options to Missouri Mediacom Systems' employees during 2000 for AT&T stock and AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock, respectively. At the date of grant, the exercise price for AT&T options and AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock options granted to AT&T Broadband employees during 2000 was $33.81 and $27.56, respectively. The fair value at date of grant for AT&T options and AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock options granted to AT&T Broadband employees during 2000 was $10.59 and $11.74, respectively, and was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following assumptions were applied for 2000 for the AT&T options and the AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock options: (i) expected dividend yield of 1.7% and 0%, respectively, (ii) expected volatility rate of 34% and 55%, respectively, (iii) risk-free interest rate of 6.24% and 6.2%, respectively, and (iv) expected life of 4 and 3 years, respectively. 6. Commitments and Contingencies The Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992 (the "1992 Cable Act") imposed certain rate regulations on the cable television industry. Under the 1992 Cable Act, all cable systems are subject to rate regulation, unless they face "effective competition," as defined by the 1992 Cable Act and expanded in the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the "1996 Act"), in their local franchise area. Although the Federal Communications Commission (the "FCC") has established regulations required by the 1992 Cable Act, local government units (commonly referred to as local franchising authorities) are primarily responsible for administering the regulation of a cable system's basic service tier. Management of the Systems believes that it has complied in all material respects with the provisions of the 1992 Cable Act and the 1996 Act, including its rate setting provisions. If, as a result of the review process, a system cannot substantiate its rates, it could be required to retroactively reduce its rates to the appropriate benchmark and refund the excess portion of rates received. Certain plaintiffs have filed or threatened separate class action complaints against cable systems across the United States alleging that the systems' delinquency constitutes an invalid liquidated damage provision, a breach of contract and violates local consumer protection statutes. Plaintiffs seek recovery of all late fees paid to the subject systems as a class purporting to consist of all subscribers who were assessed such fees during the applicable limitation period, plus attorney fees and costs. In December 2000, a settlement agreement was approved by the Court with respect to certain late fee class action complaints, which involves certain subscribers of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems. Certain other plaintiff suits, involving Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems, remain unresolved. The December 2000 and any future settlements are not expected to have a material impact on Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems' financial condition or excess of revenues over direct expenses. Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems have contingent liabilities related to legal proceedings and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Although it is reasonably possible, Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems may incur losses upon conclusion of such matters, an estimate of any loss or range of loss cannot be made. Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems leases business offices, has entered into pole rental agreements and uses certain equipment under lease arrangements. Rental expense for such arrangements amounted to $171,000, $177,000, $26,000 and $115,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000, the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999, the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998, respectively.

SOUTHERN ILLINOIS MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) 1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies On February 26, 2001, subsidiaries of AT&T Corp. ("AT&T") entered into an agreement with Mediacom Communications Corporation ("Mediacom") under which such subsidiaries agreed to sell certain cable television systems serving approximately 55,000 customers, as of March 31, 2001, located primarily in Southern Illinois, and wholly owned by various cable subsidiaries and partnerships of AT&T, to Mediacom (the "Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems" or the "Systems"). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited combined financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods presented by the Systems. The excess of revenue over direct expenses for any interim period is not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The unaudited combined financial statements and footnote disclosures should be read in conjunction with the audited combined financial statements and related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2000. The accompanying unaudited combined financial statements include the specific accounts directly related to the activities of the Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems. All significant inter-system accounts and transactions have been eliminated in combination. The combined net assets of the Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems are referred to as "Parent's Investment." On March 9, 1999, AT&T acquired AT&T Broadband, LLC ("AT&T Broadband", formerly known as Tele-Communications, Inc.) in a merger (the "AT&T Merger"). In the AT&T Merger, AT&T Broadband became a subsidiary of AT&T. For financial reporting purposes, the AT&T Merger was deemed to have occurred on March 1, 1999. Certain costs of AT&T Broadband are charged to the Systems based primarily on Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems' number of customers (see Note 3). Although such allocations are not necessarily indicative of the costs that would have been incurred by the Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems on a stand- alone basis, management believes that the resulting allocated amounts are reasonable. The net assets of the Systems are held by various wholly-owned subsidiaries and partnerships of AT&T Broadband. Accordingly, the unaudited financial statements of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems do not reflect all of the assets and liabilities that would be indicative of a stand-alone business. The assets, liabilities, excess of revenue over direct expenses and cash flows of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems could differ from reported results had Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems operated autonomously or as an entity independent of AT&T. In particular, Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems does not constitute a taxable entity and, therefore, no provision has been made for income tax expense or benefit in the accompanying unaudited combined financial statements. In addition, no interest expense incurred by AT&T and its subsidiaries on their debt obligations has been allocated to Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of deposits with banks and financial institutions that are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use and have maturities of less than 90 days. AT&T performs cash management functions on behalf of AT&T Broadband, including the Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems. Substantially all of the Systems' cash balances are swept to AT&T on a daily basis, where they are managed and invested by AT&T. Transfers of cash to and from AT&T are reflected as a F-39
SOUTHERN ILLINOIS MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) (unaudited) component of Parent's investment, with no interest income or expense reflected. Net transfers to or from AT&T are assumed to be settled in cash. AT&T's capital contributions for purchase business combinations to the Systems have been treated as non-cash transactions. Property and Equipment Property and equipment is stated at cost, including acquisition costs allocated to tangible assets acquired. Construction costs, labor and applicable overhead related to installations are capitalized. Interest capitalized was not significant for any periods presented. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis using estimated useful lives of 3 to 15 years for distribution systems and 3 to 40 years for support equipment and buildings. Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations, and renewals and additions are capitalized. At the time of ordinary retirements, sales or other dispositions of property, the original cost and cost of removal of such property are charged to accumulated depreciation and salvage, if any, is credited thereto. Gains or losses are only recognized in connection with the sale of properties in their entirety. Intangible Assets Intangible assets consist primarily of franchise costs and intangibles for customer relationships. Franchise costs represent the difference between AT&T Broadband's allocated historical cost of acquired assets of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems and amounts allocated to the tangible assets. Franchise costs and customer relationships are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 and 10 years, respectively. Costs incurred by Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems in negotiating and renewing franchise agreements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the average lives of the franchise, generally 10 to 20 years. Impairment of Long-lived Assets Management of the Systems periodically reviews the carrying amounts of property and equipment and its identifiable intangible assets to determine whether current events or circumstances warrant adjustments to such carrying amounts. If an impairment adjustment is deemed necessary, based on an analysis of undiscounted cash flows, such loss is measured by the amount that the carrying value of such assets exceeds the fair value. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of assets; accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from such estimates. Assets to be disposed of are carried at the lower of their financial statement carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Revenue Recognition Revenue for customer fees, equipment rental, advertising, pay-per-view programming and revenue sharing agreements is recognized in the period that services are delivered. Installation revenue is recognized in the period the installation services are provided to the extent of direct selling costs. Any remaining amount is deferred and recognized over the estimated average period that customers are expected to remain connected to the cable distribution system. Statement of Cash Flows Transactions effected through the intercompany account due to (from) parent have been considered constructive cash receipts and payments for purposes of the combined statement of cash flows.

SOUTHERN ILLINOIS MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) (unaudited) Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation is accounted for in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The Systems follow the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. Intangibles Intangibles are summarized as follows: March 31, ----------------------- 2001 2000 ----------- ----------- (Amounts in Thousands) Franchise costs................................... $ 166,559 $ 166,559 Other intangibles................................. 7,020 7,020 ----------- ----------- 173,579 173,579 Less accumulated amortization..................... 9,806 5,067 ----------- ----------- Intangibles, net................................ $ 163,773 $ 168,512 =========== =========== Amortization expense on franchise costs was $997,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. Amortization expense for other intangibles was $188,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. 3. Parent's Investment Parent's investment in Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems is summarized as follows: March 31, ----------------- 2001 2000 -------- -------- (Amounts in Thousands) Transfers from parent, net............................. $177,790 $186,423 Cumulative excess of revenue over direct expenses since March 1, 1999......................................... 5,819 3,055 -------- -------- $183,609 $189,478 ======== ======== The non-interest bearing transfers from parent includes AT&T Broadband's equity in acquired systems, programming charges, management fees and advances for operations, acquisitions and construction costs, as well as the amounts charged as a result of the allocation of certain costs from AT&T. F-41
SOUTHERN ILLINOIS MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) (unaudited) As a result of AT&T Broadband's 100% ownership of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems, transfers from parent amounts have been classified as a component of Parent's investment in the accompanying combined balance sheets. Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems purchases, at AT&T Broadband's cost, certain pay television and other programming through a certain indirect subsidiary of AT&T Broadband. Charges for such programming are included in operating expenses in the accompanying combined financial statements. Certain subsidiaries of AT&T Broadband provide administrative services to Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems and have assumed managerial responsibility of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems' cable television system operations and construction. As compensation for these services, Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems pay a monthly management fee calculated on a per-subscriber basis. The parent transfers and expense allocation activity consists of the following: Three months ended March 31, ------------------------ 2001 2000 ----------- ----------- (Amounts in Thousands) Beginning of period.............................. $ 177,143 $ 188,084 Programming charges............................ 1,939 2,174 Management fees................................ 651 365 Cash transfers................................. (1,943) (4,200) ----------- ----------- End of period.................................... $ 177,790 $ 186,423 =========== =========== 4. Employee Benefit and Stock-Based Compensation Plans AT&T sponsors savings plans for the majority of its employees. The plan allows employees to contribute a portion of their pre-tax and/or after-tax income in accordance with specified guidelines. Employee contributions are matched up to certain limits. AT&T Broadband contributions for employees of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems amounted to $37,000 and $63,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Under AT&T's 1997 Long-term Incentive Program (the "Program"), which was amended March 14, 2000, AT&T grants stock options, performance shares, restricted stock and other awards on AT&T common stock as well as stock options on the AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock. Employees of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems were eligible to receive stock options under this plan effective with the AT&T Merger (see Note 1). Under the Program, there were 150 million shares of AT&T common stock available for grant with a maximum of 22.5 million common shares that could be used for awards other than stock options. Beginning with January 1, 2000, the remaining shares available for grant at December 31 of the prior year, plus 1.75% of the shares of AT&T common stock outstanding on January 1 of each year, become available for grant. There is a maximum of 37.5 million shares that may be used for awards other than stock options. The exercise price of any stock option is equal to the stock price when the option is granted. Generally, the options vest over three or four years and are exercisable up to 10 years from the date of grant. There were no stock option grants to the Systems' employees under this plan during the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. F-42
SOUTHERN ILLINOIS MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) (unaudited) Under the AT&T 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan"), which was effective July 1, 1996, AT&T is authorized to sell up to 75 million shares of AT&T common stock to its eligible employees. Under the terms of the Plan, employees may have up to 10% of their earnings withheld to purchase AT&T's common stock. The purchase price of the stock on the date of exercise is 85% of the average high and low sale prices of shares on the New York Stock Exchange for that day. Employees of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems were eligible to participate in the Plan effective with the AT&T Merger (see Note 1). 5. Commitments and Contingencies The Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992 (the "1992 Cable Act") imposed certain rate regulations on the cable television industry. Under the 1992 Cable Act, all cable systems are subject to rate regulation, unless they face "effective competition," as defined by the 1992 Cable Act and expanded in the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the "1996 Act"), in their local franchise area. Although the Federal Communications Commission (the "FCC") has established regulations required by the 1992 Cable Act, local government units (commonly referred to as local franchising authorities) are primarily responsible for administering the regulation of a cable system's basic service tier. Management of the Systems believes that it has complied in all material respects with the provisions of the 1992 Cable Act and the 1996 Act, including its rate setting provisions. If, as a result of the review process, a system cannot substantiate its rates, it could be required to retroactively reduce its rates to the appropriate benchmark and refund the excess portion of rates received. Certain plaintiffs have filed or threatened separate class action complaints against cable systems across the United States alleging that the systems' delinquency constitutes an invalid liquidated damage provision, a breach of contract and violates local consumer protection statutes. Plaintiffs seek recovery of all late fees paid to the subject systems as a class purporting to consist of all subscribers who were assessed such fees during the applicable limitation period, plus attorney fees and costs. In December 2000, a settlement agreement was approved by the Court with respect to certain late fee class action complaints, which involves certain subscribers of Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems. Certain other plaintiff suits, involving Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems, remain unresolved. The December 2000 settlement and any future settlements are not expected to have a material impact on Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems' financial condition or excess of revenue over direct expenses. Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems have contingent liabilities related to legal proceedings and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Although it is reasonably possible, Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems may incur losses upon conclusion of such matters, an estimate of any loss or range of loss cannot be made. Southern Illinois Mediacom Systems leases business offices, has entered into pole rental agreements and uses certain equipment under operating lease arrangements. Rental expense for such arrangements amounted to $35,000 and $50,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. It is expected that, in the normal course of business, expiring leases will be renewed or replaced by leases on other properties. F-43
Report of Independent Accountants To the Board of Directors of AT&T Broadband LLC: In our opinion, the accompanying combined statements of assets, liabilities and parent's investment and the related combined statements of revenues and direct expenses and of parent's investment and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the assets, liabilities and parent's investment of Iowa Mediacom Systems (a combination of certain assets as defined in Note 1 to the combined financial statements) at December 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, and the excess of their revenues over direct expenses and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2000, and the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999 ("New Mediacom"), and the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998 ("Old Mediacom") in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companies' management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. As discussed in Note 1, effective March 9, 1999, AT&T Corp., the parent company of New Mediacom, acquired Tele-Communications, Inc., parent company of Old Mediacom, in a business combination accounted for as a purchase. As a result of the acquisition, the combined financial information for the periods after the acquisition is presented on a different basis than that for the periods before the acquisition and therefore, is not comparable.

IOWA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies On February 26, 2001, subsidiaries of AT&T Corp. ("AT&T") entered into an agreement with Mediacom Communications Corporation ("Mediacom") under which such subsidiaries agreed to sell certain cable television systems serving approximately 543,000 customers, as of December 31, 2000, located primarily in Iowa, and wholly owned by various cable subsidiaries and partnerships of AT&T, to Mediacom (the "Iowa Mediacom Systems"). The accompanying combined financial statements include the specific accounts directly related to the activities of the Iowa Mediacom Systems. All significant inter-system accounts and transactions have been eliminated in combination. The combined net assets of the Iowa Mediacom Systems are referred to as "Parent's Investment." On March 9, 1999, AT&T acquired AT&T Broadband, LLC ("AT&T Broadband", formerly known as Tele-Communications, Inc.) in a merger (the "AT&T Merger"). In the AT&T Merger, AT&T Broadband became a subsidiary of AT&T. For financial reporting purposes, the AT&T Merger was deemed to have occurred on March 1, 1999. The combined financial statements for periods prior to March 1, 1999 include the Iowa Mediacom Systems that were then owned by Tele-Communications, Inc. and are referred to herein as "Old Mediacom." The combined financial statements for periods subsequent to February 28, 1999 are referred to herein as "New Mediacom." Due to the application of purchase accounting in connection with the AT&T Merger, the predecessor combined financial statements of Old Mediacom are not comparable to the successor combined financial statements of New Mediacom. In the following text, "Iowa Mediacom Systems" and "Systems" refer to both Old Mediacom and New Mediacom. As further described in Note 3, certain of the cable systems included in the combined financial statements for periods after March 1, 1999 were acquired by AT&T and its subsidiaries in 1999. The Iowa Mediacom Systems combined financial statements include the assets, liabilities and results of operations for such cable systems since their acquisition date. Certain costs of AT&T Broadband are charged to the Systems based primarily on Iowa Mediacom Systems' number of customers (see Note 4). Although such allocations are not necessarily indicative of the costs that would have been incurred by the Iowa Mediacom Systems on a stand alone basis, management believes that the resulting allocated amounts are reasonable. The net assets of the Systems are held by various wholly-owned subsidiaries and partnerships of AT&T Broadband. Accordingly, the balance sheets of Iowa Mediacom Systems do not reflect all of the assets and liabilities that would be indicative of a stand-alone business. The assets, liabilities, excess of revenues over direct expenses and cash flows of Iowa Mediacom Systems could differ from reported results had Iowa Mediacom Systems operated autonomously or as an entity independent of AT&T. In particular, Iowa Mediacom Systems does not constitute a taxable entity, and therefore, no provision has been made for income tax expense or benefit in the accompanying combined financial statements. In addition, no interest expense incurred by AT&T and its subsidiaries on their debt obligations has been allocated to Iowa Mediacom Systems. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of deposits with banks and financial institutions that are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use and have maturities of less than 90 days.

IOWA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) AT&T performs cash management functions on behalf of AT&T Broadband, including the Iowa Mediacom Systems. Substantially all of the Systems' cash balances are swept to AT&T on a daily basis, where they are managed and invested by AT&T. Transfers of cash to and from AT&T are reflected as a component of Parent's investment, with no interest income or expense reflected. Net transfers to or from AT&T are assumed to be settled in cash.

At the time of ordinary retirements, sales or other dispositions of property, the original cost and cost of removal of such property are charged to accumulated depreciation, and salvage, if any, is credited thereto. Gains or losses are only recognized in connection with the sale of properties in their entirety. Intangible Assets Intangible assets consist primarily of franchise costs and intangibles for customer relationships. Franchise costs represent the difference between AT&T Broadband's allocated historical cost of acquired assets of Iowa Mediacom Systems and amounts allocated to the tangible assets. Franchise costs and customer relationships are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 and 10 years, respectively. Costs incurred by Iowa Mediacom Systems in negotiating and renewing franchise agreements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the average lives of the franchise, generally 10 to 20 years. Impairment of Long-lived Assets Management of the Systems periodically reviews the carrying amounts of property and equipment and its identifiable intangible assets to determine whether current events or circumstances warrant adjustments to such carrying amounts. If an impairment adjustment is deemed necessary, based on an analysis of undiscounted cash flows, such loss is measured by the amount that the carrying value of such assets exceeds the fair value. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of assets, accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from such estimates. Assets to be disposed of are carried at the lower of their financial statement carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Revenue Recognition Revenue for customer fees, equipment rental, advertising, pay-per-view programming and revenue sharing agreements is recognized in the period that services are delivered. Installation revenue is recognized in the period the installation services are provided to the extent of direct selling costs. Any remaining amount is deferred and recognized over the estimated average period that customers are expected to remain connected to the cable distribution system. F-49
IOWA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) Statement of Cash Flows With the exception of certain system acquisitions, sales and asset transfers (see Note 3), transactions effected through the intercompany account due to (from) parent have been considered constructive cash receipts and payments for purposes of the combined statement of cash flows. Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation is accounted for in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The Systems follow the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." New Accounting Pronouncements In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 (SAB No. 101), "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." Registrants were required to apply the accounting and disclosures described in SAB No. 101 no later than the fourth quarter of 2000. The Systems are currently in compliance with the provisions of SAB No. 101. The adoption of SAB No. 101 did not have an impact on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Systems. Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. Intangibles Intangibles are summarized as follows: December 31, --------------------- 2000 1999 ---------- ---------- (Amounts in Thousands) Franchise costs.................................... $1,170,285 $1,170,285 Other intangibles.................................. 55,026 55,026 ---------- ---------- 1,225,311 1,225,311 Less accumulated amortization...................... 74,874 29,018 ---------- ---------- Intangibles, net................................... $1,150,437 $1,196,293 ========== ========== Amortization expense on franchise costs was $40,353,000, $24,434,000, $2,001,000 and $11,858,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000, the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999, the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998, respectively. Amortization expense for other intangibles was $5,503,000, $4,584,000, $0 and $0 for the year ended December 31, 2000, the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999, the period January 1,1999 to February 28, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998, respectively.

Business Combinations AT&T Merger The AT&T Merger has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and has been deemed to be effective as of March 1, 1999 for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Iowa Mediacom Systems' portion of the allocation of AT&T's purchase price to acquire AT&T Broadband has been reflected in the combined financial statements of Iowa Mediacom Systems as of March 1, 1999. The following table reflects the March 1, 1999 assets and liabilities of New Mediacom, as adjusted to give effect for the purchase accounting adjustments resulting from the allocation to the net assets of the Systems of AT&T's purchase price to acquire AT&T Broadband: (Amounts in Thousands) ---------- Assets Cash......................................................... $ 7,197 Trade and other receivables.................................. 7,328 Property and equipment....................................... 180,966 Intangible assets............................................ 1,216,929 Other assets................................................. 6,567 ---------- $1,418,987 ========== Liabilities and Parent's Investment Accounts payable and accrued expenses........................ $ 12,864 Parent's investment.......................................... 1,406,123 ---------- Total liabilities and parent's investment.................. $1,418,987 ========== As a result of the application of purchase accounting, Iowa Mediacom Systems recorded its assets and liabilities at their fair values on March 1, 1999. The most significant purchase accounting adjustments related to intangible assets. The intangible assets include approximately $1,161.9 million assigned to Iowa Mediacom Systems' franchise costs and $55.0 million related to the value to customer relationships. Acquisitions During September of 1998, Tele-Communications, Inc. paid cash to acquire a cable television system serving customers located in Iowa (the "1998 Acquisition"). The 1998 Acquisition was deemed to be effective as of September 30, 1998 for financial reporting purposes and the acquired system was recorded using the purchase method of accounting. The cable television system acquired by Tele-Communications, Inc. in the 1998 Acquisition is included in the accompanying combined financial results of Iowa Mediacom Systems and is reflected as a contribution from Tele- Communications, Inc. Accordingly, the assets, liabilities, revenues and direct expenses of such system have been reflected in the combined financial statements of Iowa Mediacom Systems since September 30, 1998. F-51

The most significant purchase accounting adjustments related to intangible assets. The intangible assets represent franchise costs which are being amortized over 40 years. During May of 1999, AT&T Broadband paid cash to acquire a cable television system serving customers located in Iowa (the "1999 Acquisition"). The 1999 Acquisition was deemed to be effective as of May 1, 1999 for financial reporting purposes and the acquired system was recorded using the purchase method of accounting. The cable television system acquired by AT&T Broadband in the 1999 Acquisition is included in the accompanying combined financial results of Iowa Mediacom Systems and is reflected as a contribution from AT&T Broadband. Accordingly, the assets, liabilities, revenues and direct expenses of such system have been reflected in the combined financial statements of Iowa Mediacom Systems since May 1, 1999. The following table reflects the May 1, 1999 assets and liabilities of the 1999 Acquisition system contributed from AT&T Broadband to Iowa Mediacom Systems: (Amounts in Thousands) ----------- Assets Property and equipment......................................... $ 2,293 Intangible assets.............................................. 8,382 ------- Total assets................................................. $10,675 ======= Liabilities and Parent's Investment Parent's investment............................................ $10,675 ------- Total liabilities and parent's investment.................... $10,675 ======= The above operating assets and liabilities have been included in the accompanying combined financial statements at their fair values at May 1, 1999.

IOWA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) Pro Forma Operating Results (unaudited) The following unaudited combined revenues and excess of revenues over direct expenses were prepared assuming the AT&T Merger, the 1998 Acquisition and the 1999 Acquisition occurred on January 1, 1998. These pro forma amounts are not necessarily indicative of operating results that would have occurred if the AT&T Merger, the 1998 Acquisition and the 1999 Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 1998, nor does it intend to be a projection of future results: New Mediacom Old Mediacom ------------ ------------------------- Period from Period from March 1 to January 1 to Year ended December 31, February 28, December 31, 1999 1999 1998 ------------ ------------ ------------ (Amounts in Thousands) Revenue............................. $209,560 $39,941 $233,766 Excess of revenues over direct expenses........................... $ 17,282 $ 3,652 $ 34,225 4. Parent's Investment Parent's investment in Iowa Mediacom Systems at December 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999 is summarized as follows: December 31, --------------------- 2000 1999 ---------- ---------- (Amounts in Thousands) Transfers from parent, net............................ $1,452,606 $1,459,108 Cumulative excess of revenues over direct expenses since March 1, 1999........................................ 25,503 17,215 ---------- ---------- $1,478,109 $1,476,323 ========== ========== The non-interest bearing transfers from parent includes AT&T Broadband's equity in acquired systems, programming charges, management fees and advances for operations, acquisitions and construction costs, as well as the amounts charged as a result of the allocation of certain costs from AT&T. As a result of AT&T's 100% ownership of Iowa Mediacom Systems, the transfers from parent amounts have been classified as a component of Parent's investment in the accompanying combined balance sheets. Iowa Mediacom Systems purchases, at AT&T Broadband's cost, certain pay television and other programming through a certain indirect subsidiary of AT&T Broadband. Charges for such programming are included in operating expenses in the accompanying combined financial statements. Certain subsidiaries of AT&T Broadband provide administrative services to Iowa Mediacom Systems and have assumed managerial responsibility of Iowa Mediacom Systems' cable television system operations and construction. As compensation for these services, Iowa Mediacom Systems pay a monthly management fee calculated on a per-subscriber basis. F-53

Employee Benefit and Stock-Based Compensation Plans AT&T sponsors savings plans for the majority of its employees. Prior to the AT&T Merger, Tele-Communications, Inc. also sponsored savings plans for the majority of its employees. The plans allow employees to contribute a portion of their pre-tax and/or after-tax income in accordance with specified guidelines. Employee contributions are matched up to certain limits. AT&T Broadband contributions for employees of Iowa Mediacom Systems amounted to $1,378,000 and $1,760,000 for the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 2000, respectively. Tele-Communications, Inc. contributions for employees of Iowa Mediacom Systems amounted to $1,601,000 and $276,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998 and the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999, respectively. Under AT&T's 1997 Long-term Incentive Program (the "Program"), which was effective June 1, 1997, and amended on May 19, 1999 and March 14, 2000, AT&T grants stock options, performance shares, restricted stock and other awards on AT&T common stock as well as stock options on the AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock. Employees of Iowa Mediacom Systems were eligible to receive stock options under this plan effective with the AT&T Merger (see Note 1). Under the Program, there were 150 million shares of AT&T common stock available for grant with a maximum of 22.5 million common shares that could be used for awards other than stock options. Beginning with January 1, 2000, the remaining shares available for grant at December 31 of the prior year, plus 1.75% of the shares of AT&T common stock outstanding on January 1 of each year, become available for grant. There is a maximum of 37.5 million shares that may be used for awards other than stock options. The exercise price of any stock option is equal to the stock price when the option is granted. Generally, the options vest over three or four years and are exercisable up to 10 years from the date of grant. Under the AT&T 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan"), which was effective July 1, 1996, AT&T is authorized to sell up to 75 million shares of AT&T common stock to its eligible employees. Under the terms of the Plan, employees may have up to 10% of their earnings withheld to purchase AT&T's common stock. The purchase price of the stock on the date of exercise is 85% of the average high and low sale prices of shares on the New York Stock Exchange for that day. F-54
IOWA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) The Systems apply Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations in accounting for its plans. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for stock- based compensation plans for the Iowa Mediacom Systems. The Systems have adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." If the Systems had elected to recognize compensation costs based on the fair value at the date of grant for AT&T awards granted to Systems' employees in 2000, consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, Iowa Mediacom Systems' excess of revenues over direct expenses would have been adjusted to reflect additional compensation expense resulting in the following pro forma amounts: Year ended December 31, 2000 ----------------- (Amounts in Thousands) Excess of revenues over direct expenses................. $5,973 AT&T granted approximately 159,600 and 53,200 stock options to Iowa Mediacom Systems employees during 2000 for AT&T stock options and AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock, respectively. At the date of grant, the exercise price for AT&T options and AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock options granted to AT&T Broadband employees during 2000 was $33.81 and $27.56, respectively. The fair value at date of grant for AT&T options and AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock options granted to AT&T Broadband employees during 2000 was $10.59 and $11.74, respectively, and was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following assumptions were applied for 2000 for the AT&T options and the AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock options: (i) expected dividend yield of 1.7% and 0%, respectively, (ii) expected volatility rate of 34% and 55%, respectively, (iii) risk-free interest rate of 6.24% and 6.2%, respectively, and (iv) expected life of 4 and 3 years, respectively. 6. Commitments and Contingencies The Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992 (the "1992 Cable Act") imposed certain rate regulations on the cable television industry. Under the 1992 Cable Act, all cable systems are subject to rate regulation, unless they face "effective competition," as defined by the 1992 Cable Act and expanded in the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the "1996 Act"), in their local franchise area. Although the Federal Communications Commission (the "FCC") has established regulations required by the 1992 Cable Act, local government units (commonly referred to as local franchising authorities) are primarily responsible for administering the regulation of a cable system's basic service tier. Management of the Systems believes that it has complied in all material respects with the provisions of the 1992 Cable Act and the 1996 Act, including its rate setting provisions. If, as a result of the review process, a system cannot substantiate its rates, it could be required to retroactively reduce its rates to the appropriate benchmark and refund the excess portion of rates received. Certain plaintiffs have filed or threatened separate class action complaints against cable systems across the United States alleging that the systems' delinquency constitutes an invalid liquidated damage provision, a breach of contact, and violates local consumer protection statutes. Plaintiffs seek recovery of all late fees paid to the subject systems as a class purporting to consist of all subscribers who were assessed such fees during the applicable limitation period, plus attorney fees and costs. In December 2000, a settlement agreement was F-55
IOWA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) approved by the court with respect to certain late fee class action complaints, which involves certain subscribers of Iowa Mediacom Systems. Certain other plaintiff suits, involving Iowa Mediacom Systems remain unresolved. The December 2000 and any future settlements are not expected to have a material impact on Iowa Mediacom Systems' financial condition or excess of revenues over direct expenses. Iowa Mediacom Systems has contingent liabilities related to legal proceedings and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Although it is reasonably possible Iowa Mediacom System may incur losses upon conclusion of such matters, an estimate of any loss or range of loss cannot be made. Iowa Mediacom Systems leases business offices, has entered into pole rental agreements and uses certain equipment under lease arrangements. Rental expense for such arrangements amounted to $1,119,000, $1,090,000, $206,000 and $1,341,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000, the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999, the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998, respectively. Future minimum lease payments under noncancelable operating leases for each of the next five years are summarized as follows: (Amounts in December 31, Thousands) ------------ ----------- 2001......................................................... $289 2002......................................................... 116 2003......................................................... 115 2004......................................................... 110 2005......................................................... 110 Thereafter................................................... 29 It is expected that, in the normal course of business, expiring leases will be renewed or replaced by leases on other properties.

IOWA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) 1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies On February 26, 2001, subsidiaries of AT&T Corp. ("AT&T") entered into an agreement with Mediacom Communications Corporation ("Mediacom") under which such subsidiaries agreed to sell certain cable television systems serving approximately 536,000 customers, as of March 31, 2001, located primarily in Iowa, and wholly owned by various cable subsidiaries and partnerships of AT&T, to Mediacom (the "Iowa Mediacom Systems" or the "Systems"). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited combined financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods presented by the Systems. The excess (shortfall) of revenue over direct expenses for any interim period is not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The unaudited combined financial statements and footnote disclosures should be read in conjunction with the audited combined financial statements and related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2000. The accompanying unaudited combined financial statements include the specific accounts directly related to the activities of the Iowa Mediacom Systems. All significant inter-system accounts and transactions have been eliminated in combination. The combined net assets of the Iowa Mediacom Systems are referred to as "Parent's Investment." On March 9, 1999, AT&T acquired AT&T Broadband, LLC ("AT&T Broadband", formerly known as Tele-Communications, Inc.) in a merger (the "AT&T Merger"). In the AT&T Merger, AT&T Broadband became a subsidiary of AT&T. For financial reporting purposes, the AT&T Merger was deemed to have occurred on March 1, 1999. Certain costs of AT&T Broadband are charged to the Systems based primarily on Iowa Mediacom Systems' number of customers (see Note 3). Although such allocations are not necessarily indicative of the costs that would have been incurred by the Iowa Mediacom Systems on a stand alone basis, management believes that the resulting allocated amounts are reasonable. The net assets of the Systems are held by various wholly-owned subsidiaries and partnerships of AT&T Broadband. Accordingly, the unaudited financial statements of Iowa Mediacom Systems do not reflect all of the assets and liabilities that would be indicative of a stand-alone business. The assets, liabilities, excess of revenue over direct expenses and cash flows of Iowa Mediacom Systems could differ from reported results had Iowa Mediacom Systems operated autonomously or as an entity independent of AT&T. In particular, Iowa Mediacom Systems does not constitute a taxable entity, and therefore, no provision has been made for income tax expense or benefit in the accompanying unaudited combined financial statements. In addition, no interest expense incurred by AT&T and its subsidiaries on their debt obligations has been allocated to Iowa Mediacom Systems. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of deposits with banks and financial institutions that are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use and have maturities of less than 90 days. AT&T performs cash management functions on behalf of AT&T Broadband, including the Iowa Mediacom Systems. Substantially all of the Systems' cash balances are swept to AT&T on a daily basis, where they are managed and invested by AT&T. Transfers of cash to and from AT&T are reflected as a component of Parent's F-60
IOWA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) (unaudited) investment, with no interest income or expense reflected. Net transfers to or from AT&T are assumed to be settled in cash. AT&T's capital contributions for purchase business combinations to the Systems have been treated as non-cash transactions. Property and Equipment Property and equipment is stated at cost, including acquisition costs allocated to tangible assets acquired. Construction costs, labor and applicable overhead related to installations are capitalized. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis using estimated useful lives of 3 to 15 years for distribution systems and 3 to 40 years for support equipment and buildings. Interest capitalized was not significant for any periods presented. Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations, and renewals and additions are capitalized. At the time of ordinary retirements, sales or other dispositions of property, the original cost and cost of removal of such property are charged to accumulated depreciation, and salvage, if any, is credited thereto. Gains or losses are only recognized in connection with the sale of properties in their entirety. Intangible Assets Intangible assets consist primarily of franchise costs and intangibles for customer relationships. Franchise costs represent the difference between AT&T Broadband's allocated historical cost of acquired assets of Iowa Mediacom Systems and amounts allocated to the tangible assets. Franchise costs and customer relationships are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 and 10 years, respectively. Costs incurred by Iowa Mediacom Systems in negotiating and renewing franchise agreements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the average lives of the franchise, generally 10 to 20 years. Impairment of Long-lived Assets Management of the Systems periodically reviews the carrying amounts of property and equipment and its identifiable intangible assets to determine whether current events or circumstances warrant adjustments to such carrying amounts. If an impairment adjustment is deemed necessary, based on an analysis of undiscounted cash flows, such loss is measured by the amount that the carrying value of such assets exceeds the fair value. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of assets, accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from such estimates. Assets to be disposed of are carried at the lower of their financial statement carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Revenue Recognition Revenue for customer fees, equipment rental, advertising, pay-per-view programming and revenue sharing agreements is recognized in the period that services are delivered. Installation revenue is recognized in the period the installation services are provided to the extent of direct selling costs. Any remaining amount is deferred and recognized over the estimated average period that customers are expected to remain connected to the cable distribution system. Statement of Cash Flows Transactions effected through the intercompany account due to (from) parent have been considered constructive cash receipts and payments for purposes of the combined statement of cash flows. F-61
IOWA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) (unaudited) Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation is accounted for in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The Systems follow the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. Intangibles Intangibles are summarized as follows: March 31, --------------------- 2001 2000 ---------- ---------- (Amounts in Thousands) Franchise costs....................................... $1,170,285 $1,170,285 Other intangibles..................................... 55,026 55,026 ---------- ---------- 1,225,311 1,225,311 Less accumulated amortization......................... 86,338 40,482 ---------- ---------- Intangibles, net.................................... $1,138,973 $1,184,829 ========== ========== Amortization expense on franchise costs was $10,088,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. Amortization expense for other intangibles was $1,376,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. 3. Parent's Investment Parent's investment in Iowa Mediacom Systems is summarized as follows: March 31, --------------------- 2001 2000 ---------- ---------- (Amounts in Thousands) Transfers from parent, net........................... $1,443,726 $1,457,717 Cumulative excess of revenue over direct expenses since March 1, 1999................................. 19,841 20,373 ---------- ---------- $1,463,567 $1,478,090 ========== ========== The non-interest bearing transfers from parent includes AT&T Broadband's equity in acquired systems, programming charges, management fees and advances for operations, acquisitions and construction costs, as well as the amounts charged as a result of the allocation of certain costs from AT&T. As a result of AT&T's 100% ownership of Iowa Mediacom Systems, the transfers from parent amounts have been classified as a component of Parent's investment in the accompanying combined balance sheets.

IOWA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) (unaudited) Iowa Mediacom Systems purchases, at AT&T Broadband's cost, certain pay television and other programming through a certain indirect subsidiary of AT&T Broadband. Charges for such programming are included in operating expenses in the accompanying combined financial statements. Certain subsidiaries of AT&T Broadband provide administrative services to Iowa Mediacom Systems and have assumed managerial responsibility of Iowa Mediacom Systems' cable television system operations and construction. As compensation for these services, Iowa Mediacom Systems pay a monthly management fee calculated on a per-subscriber basis. The parent transfers and expense allocation activity consist of the following: Three months ended March 31, ---------------------- 2001 2000 ---------- ---------- (Amounts in Thousands) Beginning of period................................ $1,452,606 $1,459,108 Programming charges.............................. 23,193 19,002 Management fees.................................. 5,566 2,941 Cash transfers................................... (37,639) (23,334) ---------- ---------- End of period...................................... $1,443,726 $1,457,717 ========== ========== 4. Employee Benefit and Stock-Based Compensation Plans AT&T sponsors savings plans for the majority of its employees. The plan allows employees to contribute a portion of their pre-tax and/or after-tax income in accordance with specified guidelines. Employee contributions are matched up to certain limits. AT&T Broadband contributions for employees of Iowa Mediacom Systems amounted to $246,000 and $390,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Under AT&T's 1997 Long-term Incentive Program (the "Program"), which was amended March 14, 2000, AT&T grants stock options, performance shares, restricted stock and other awards on AT&T common stock as well as stock options on the AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock. Employees of Iowa Mediacom Systems were eligible to receive stock options under this plan effective with the AT&T Merger (see Note 1). Under the Program, there were 150 million shares of AT&T common stock available for grant with a maximum of 22.5 million common shares that could be used for awards other than stock options. Beginning with January 1, 2000, the remaining shares available for grant at December 31 of the prior year, plus 1.75% of the shares of AT&T common stock outstanding on January 1 of each year, become available for grant. There is a maximum of 37.5 million shares that may be used for awards other than stock options. The exercise price of any stock option is equal to the stock price when the option is granted. Generally, the options vest over three or four years and are exercisable up to 10 years from the date of grant. There were no stock option grants to the Systems' employees under this plan during the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. Under the AT&T 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan"), which was effective July 1, 1996, AT&T is authorized to sell up to 75 million shares of AT&T common stock to its eligible employees. Under the terms of the Plan, employees may have up to 10% of their earnings withheld to purchase AT&T's common stock. The purchase price of the stock on the date of exercise is 85% of the average high and low sale prices of shares on the New York Stock Exchange for that day. Employees of Iowa Mediacom Systems were eligible to participate in the Plan effective with the AT&T Merger (see Note 1). F-63
IOWA MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) (unaudited) 5. Commitments and Contingencies The Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992 (the "1992 Cable Act") imposed certain rate regulations on the cable television industry. Under the 1992 Cable Act, all cable systems are subject to rate regulation, unless they face "effective competition," as defined by the 1992 Cable Act and expanded in the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the "1996 Act"), in their local franchise area. Although the Federal Communications Commission (the "FCC") has established regulations required by the 1992 Cable Act, local government units (commonly referred to as local franchising authorities) are primarily responsible for administering the regulation of a cable system's basic service tier. Management of the Systems believes that it has complied in all material respects with the provisions of the 1992 Cable Act and the 1996 Act, including its rate setting provisions. If, as a result of the review process, a system cannot substantiate its rates, it could be required to retroactively reduce its rates to the appropriate benchmark and refund the excess portion of rates received. Certain plaintiffs have filed or threatened separate class action complaints against cable systems across the United States alleging that the systems' delinquency constitutes an invalid liquidated damage provision, a breach of contact, and violates local consumer protection statutes. Plaintiffs seek recovery of all late fees paid to the subject systems as a class purporting to consist of all subscribers who were assessed such fees during the applicable limitation period, plus attorney fees and costs. In December 2000, a settlement agreement was approved by the court with respect to certain late fee class action complaints, which involves certain subscribers of Iowa Mediacom Systems. Certain other plaintiff suits, involving Iowa Mediacom Systems remain unresolved. The December 2000 settlement and any future settlements are not expected to have a material impact on Iowa Mediacom Systems' financial condition or excess (shortfall) of revenue over direct expenses. Iowa Mediacom Systems has contingent liabilities related to legal proceedings and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Although it is reasonably possible Iowa Mediacom System may incur losses upon conclusion of such matters, an estimate of any loss or range of loss cannot be made. Iowa Mediacom Systems leases business offices, has entered into pole rental agreements and uses certain equipment under operating lease arrangements. Rental expense for such arrangements amounted to $393,000 and $320,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. It is expected that, in the normal course of business, expiring leases will be renewed or replaced by leases on other properties. F-64
Report of Independent Accountants To the Board of Directors of AT&T Broadband LLC: In our opinion, the accompanying combined statements of assets, liabilities and parent's investment and the related combined statements of revenues and direct expenses, and of parent's investment and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the assets, liabilities and parent's investment of Missouri Mediacom Systems (a combination of certain assets as defined in Note 1 to the combined financial statements) at December 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, and the excess of their revenues over direct expenses and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2000, and the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999 ("New Mediacom"), and the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998 ("Old Mediacom") in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companies' management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. As discussed in Note 1, effective March 9, 1999, AT&T Corp., the parent company of New Mediacom, acquired Tele-Communications, Inc., parent company of Old Mediacom, in a business combination accounted for as a purchase. As a result of the acquisition, the combined financial information for the periods after the acquisition is presented on a different basis than that for the periods before the acquisition and therefore, is not comparable.

MISSOURI MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies On February 26, 2001, subsidiaries of AT&T Corp. ("AT&T") entered into an agreement with Mediacom Communications Corporation ("Mediacom") under which such subsidiaries agreed to sell certain cable television systems serving approximately 98,000 customers, as of December 31, 2000, located primarily in Missouri, and wholly owned by various cable subsidiaries and partnerships of AT&T, to Mediacom (the "Missouri Mediacom Systems"). The accompanying combined financial statements include the specific accounts directly related to the activities of the Missouri Mediacom Systems. All significant inter-system accounts and transactions have been eliminated in combination. The combined net assets of the Missouri Mediacom Systems are referred to as "Parent's Investment." On March 9, 1999, AT&T acquired AT&T Broadband, LLC ("AT&T Broadband", formerly known as Tele-Communications, Inc.) in a merger (the "AT&T Merger"). In the AT&T Merger, AT&T Broadband became a subsidiary of AT&T. For financial reporting purposes, the AT&T Merger was deemed to have occurred on March 1, 1999. The combined financial statements for periods prior to March 1, 1999 include the Missouri Mediacom Systems that were then owned by Tele- Communications, Inc. and are referred to herein as "Old Mediacom." The combined financial statements for periods subsequent to February 28, 1999 are referred to herein as "New Mediacom." Due to the application of purchase accounting in connection with the AT&T Merger, the predecessor combined financial statements of Old Mediacom are not comparable to the successor combined financial statements of New Mediacom. In the following text, "Missouri Mediacom Systems" and "Systems" refers to both Old Mediacom and New Mediacom. Certain costs of AT&T Broadband are charged to the Systems based primarily on Missouri Mediacom Systems' number of customers (see Note 4). Although such allocations are not necessarily indicative of the costs that would have been incurred by the Missouri Mediacom Systems on a stand alone basis, management believes that the resulting allocated amounts are reasonable. The net assets of the Systems are held by various wholly-owned subsidiaries and partnerships of AT&T Broadband. Accordingly, the balance sheets of Missouri Mediacom Systems do not reflect all of the assets and liabilities that would be indicative of a stand-alone business. The assets, liabilities, excess of revenues over direct expenses and cash flows of Missouri Mediacom Systems could differ from reported results had Missouri Mediacom Systems operated autonomously or as an entity independent of AT&T. In particular, Missouri Mediacom Systems does not constitute a taxable entity, and therefore, no provision has been made for income tax expense or benefit in the accompanying combined financial statements. In addition, no interest expense incurred by AT&T and its subsidiaries on their debt obligations has been allocated to Missouri Mediacom Systems. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of deposits with banks and financial institutions that are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use and have maturities of less than 90 days. AT&T performs cash management functions on behalf of AT&T Broadband, including the Missouri Mediacom Systems. Substantially all of the Systems' cash balances are swept to AT&T on a daily basis, where they are managed and invested by AT&T. Transfers of cash to and from AT&T are reflected as a component Parent's investment, with no interest income or expense reflected. Net transfers to or from AT&T are assumed to be settled in cash. AT&T's capital contributions for purchase business combinations to the Systems have been treated as non-cash transactions. F-69
MISSOURI MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) Property and Equipment Property and equipment is stated at cost, including acquisition costs allocated to tangible assets acquired. Construction costs, labor and applicable overhead related to installations are capitalized. Interest capitalized was not significant for any periods presented. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis using estimated useful lives of 3 to 15 years for distribution systems and 3 to 40 years for support equipment and buildings. Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations, and renewals and additions are capitalized. At the time of ordinary retirements, sales or other dispositions of property, the original cost and cost of removal of such property are charged to accumulated depreciation, and salvage, if any, is credited thereto. Gains or losses are only recognized in connection with the sale of properties in their entirety. Intangible Assets Intangible assets consist primarily of franchise costs and intangibles for customer relationships. Franchise costs represent the difference between AT&T Broadband's allocated historical cost of acquired assets of Missouri Mediacom Systems and amounts allocated to the tangible assets. Franchise costs and customer relationships are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 and 10 years, respectively. Costs incurred by Missouri Mediacom Systems in negotiating and renewing franchise agreements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the average lives of the franchise, generally 10 to 20 years. Impairment of Long-lived Assets Management of the Systems periodically reviews the carrying amounts of property and equipment and its identifiable intangible assets to determine whether current events or circumstances warrant adjustments to such carrying amounts. If an impairment adjustment is deemed necessary, based on an analysis of undiscounted cash flows, such loss is measured by the amount that the carrying value of such assets exceeds the fair value. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of assets, accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from such estimates. Assets to be disposed of are carried at the lower of their financial statement carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Revenue Recognition Revenue for customer fees, equipment rental, advertising, pay-per-view programming and revenue sharing agreements is recognized in the period that services are delivered. Installation revenue is recognized in the period the installation services are provided to the extent of direct selling costs. Any remaining amount is deferred and recognized over the estimated average period that customers are expected to remain connected to the cable distribution system. Statement of Cash Flows With the exception of certain system acquisitions, sales and asset transfers (see Note 3), transactions effected through the intercompany account due to (from) parent have been considered constructive cash receipts and payments for purposes of the combined statement of cash flows. F-70
MISSOURI MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation is accounted for in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The Systems follow the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." New Accounting Pronouncements In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 (SAB No. 101), "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." Registrants were required to apply the accounting and disclosures described in SAB No. 101 no later than the fourth quarter of 2000. The Systems are currently in compliance with the provisions of SAB No. 101. The adoption of SAB 101 did not have an impact on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Systems. Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. Intangibles Intangibles are summarized as follows: December 31, ----------------------- 2000 1999 ----------- ----------- (Amounts in Thousands) Franchise costs................................... $ 242,053 $ 242,053 Other intangibles................................. 9,667 9,667 ----------- ----------- 251,720 251,720 Less accumulated amortization..................... 12,867 5,849 ----------- ----------- Intangibles, net................................ $ 238,853 $ 245,871 =========== =========== Amortization expense on franchise costs was $6,051,000, $5,044,000, $370,000 and $2,222,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000, the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999, the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998, respectively. Amortization expense for other intangibles was $967,000, $805,000, $0 and $0 for the year ended December 31, 2000, the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999, the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998, respectively. 3. Business Combinations AT&T Merger The AT&T Merger has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and has been deemed to be effective as of March 1, 1999 for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Missouri Mediacom Systems' portion of the allocation of AT&T's purchase price to acquire AT&T Broadband has been reflected in the combined financial statements of Missouri Mediacom Systems as of March 1, 1999. F-71
MISSOURI MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) The following table reflects the March 1, 1999 assets and liabilities of New Mediacom, as adjusted to give effect for the purchase accounting adjustments resulting from the allocation to the net assets of the Systems of AT&T's purchase price to acquire AT&T Broadband: (Amounts in Thousands) ----------- Assets Cash......................................................... $ 827 Trade and other receivables.................................. 1,340 Property and equipment....................................... 44,937 Intangible assets............................................ 251,720 -------- Total assets............................................... $298,824 ======== Liabilities and Parent's Investment Accounts payable and accrued expenses........................ $ 885 Parent's investment.......................................... 297,939 -------- Total liabilities and parent's investment.................. $298,824 ======== As a result of the application of purchase accounting, Missouri Mediacom Systems recorded its assets and liabilities at their fair values on March 1, 1999. The most significant purchase accounting adjustments related to intangible assets. The intangible assets include $242 million assigned to Missouri Mediacom Systems' franchise costs and $9.7 million related to the value attributed to customer relationships. Pro Forma Operating Results (unaudited) The following unaudited combined revenues and excess of revenues over direct expenses were prepared assuming the AT&T Merger occurred on January 1, 1998. These pro forma amounts are not necessarily indicative of operating results that would have occurred if the AT&T Merger had occurred on January 1, 1998, nor does it intend to be a projection of future results: Old Mediacom ------------------------- Period from January 1 to Year ended February 28, December 31, 1999 1998 ------------ ------------ (Amounts in Thousands) Revenue.......................................... $7,612 $43,849 Excess of revenues over direct expenses.......... $ 464 $ 1,999 F-72

As a result of AT&T Broadband's 100% ownership of Missouri Mediacom Systems, transfers from parent amounts have been classified as a component of Parent's investment in the accompanying combined balance sheets. Missouri Mediacom Systems purchases, at AT&T Broadband's cost, certain pay television and other programming through a certain indirect subsidiary of AT&T Broadband. Charges for such programming are included in operating expenses in the accompanying combined financial statements. Certain subsidiaries of AT&T Broadband provide administrative services to Missouri Mediacom Systems and assume managerial responsibility of Missouri Mediacom Systems' cable television system operations and construction. As compensation for these services, Missouri Mediacom Systems pay a monthly management fee calculated on a per-subscriber basis. The parent transfers and expense allocation activity consist of the following: New Mediacom Old Mediacom ------------------------- ------------------------- Period from Period from Year ended March 1 to January 1 to Year ended December 31, December 31, February 28, December 31, 2000 1999 1999 1998 ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ (Amounts in Thousands) Beginning of period...................................................... $296,836 $297,939 $107,283 $113,765 Programming charges.................................................... 13,891 10,566 2,073 10,699 Management fees........................................................ 2,074 1,539 161 1,718 Cash transfers.........................................................

Employee Benefit and Stock-Based Compensation Plans AT&T sponsors savings plans for the majority of its employees. Prior to the AT&T Merger, Tele-Communications, Inc. also sponsored savings plans for the majority of its employees. The plans allow employees to contribute a portion of their pre-tax and/or after-tax income in accordance with specified F-73
MISSOURI MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) guidelines. Employee contributions are matched up to certain limits. AT&T Broadband contributions for employees of Missouri Mediacom Systems amounted to $248,000 and $309,000 for the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 2000, respectively. Tele-Communications, Inc. contributions for employees of Missouri Mediacom Systems amounted to $285,000 and $50,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998 and the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999, respectively. Under AT&T's 1997 Long-term Incentive Program (the "Program"), which was effective June 1, 1997, and amended on May 19, 1999 and March 14, 2000, AT&T grants stock options, performance shares, restricted stock and other awards on AT&T common stock as well as stock options on the AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock. Employees of Missouri Mediacom Systems were eligible to receive stock options under this plan effective with the AT&T Merger (see Note 1). Under the Program, there were 150 million shares of AT&T common stock available for grant with a maximum of 22.5 million common shares that could be used for awards other than stock options. Beginning with January 1, 2000, the remaining shares available for grant at December 31 of the prior year, plus 1.75% of the shares of AT&T common stock outstanding on January 1 of each year, become available for grant. There is a maximum of 37.5 million shares that may be used for awards other than stock options. The exercise price of any stock option is equal to the stock price when the option is granted. Generally, the options vest over three or four years and are exercisable up to 10 years from the date of grant. Under the AT&T 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan"), which was effective July 1, 1996, AT&T is authorized to sell up to 75 million shares of AT&T common stock to its eligible employees. Under the terms of the Plan, employees may have up to 10% of their earnings withheld to purchase AT&T's common stock. The purchase price of the stock on the date of exercise is 85% of the average high and low sale prices of shares on the New York Stock Exchange for that day. The Systems apply Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations in accounting for its plans. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for stock- based compensation plans for the Missouri Mediacom Systems. The Systems have adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." If the Systems had elected to recognize compensation costs based on the fair value at the date of grant for AT&T awards granted to Systems' employees in 2000, consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, Missouri Mediacom Systems' excess of revenues over direct expenses would have been adjusted to reflect additional compensation expense resulting in the following pro forma amounts: Year ended December 31, 2000 ------------ (Amounts in Thousands) Excess of revenues over direct expenses...................... $4,136 AT&T granted approximately 35,250 and 11,750 stock options to Missouri Mediacom Systems' employees during 2000 for AT&T stock and AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock, respectively. At the date of grant, the exercise price for AT&T options and AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock options granted to AT&T Broadband employees during 2000 was $33.81 and $27.56, respectively. The fair value at date of grant for AT&T options and AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock options granted to AT&T Broadband employees during 2000 was $10.59 and $11.74, respectively, and was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following assumptions were applied for 2000 for the AT&T options and the AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock options: (i) expected dividend yield of 1.7% and 0%, respectively, (ii) expected volatility rate of 34% and 55%, respectively, (iii) risk-free interest rate of 6.24% and 6.2%, respectively, and (iv) expected life of 4 and 3 years, respectively.

MISSOURI MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) 6. Commitments and Contingencies The Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992 (the "1992 Cable Act") imposed certain rate regulations on the cable television industry. Under the 1992 Cable Act, all cable systems are subject to rate regulation, unless they face "effective competition," as defined by the 1992 Cable Act and expanded in the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the "1996 Act"), in their local franchise area. Although the Federal Communications Commission (the "FCC") has established regulations required by the 1992 Cable Act, local government units (commonly referred to as local franchising authorities) are primarily responsible for administering the regulation of a cable system's basic service tier. Management of the Systems believes that it has complied in all material respects with the provisions of the 1992 Cable Act and the 1996 Act, including its rate setting provisions. If, as a result of the review process, a system cannot substantiate its rates, it could be required to retroactively reduce its rates to the appropriate benchmark and refund the excess portion of rates received. Certain plaintiffs have filed or threatened separate class action complaints against cable systems across the United States alleging that the systems' delinquency constitutes an invalid liquidated damage provision, a breach of contract and violates local consumer protection statutes. Plaintiffs seek recovery of all late fees paid to the subject systems as a class purporting to consist of all subscribers who were assessed such fees during the applicable limitation period, plus attorney fees and costs. In December 2000, a settlement agreement was approved by the Court with respect to certain late fee class action complaints, which involves certain subscribers of Missouri Mediacom Systems. Certain other plaintiff suits, involving Missouri Mediacom Systems, remain unresolved. The December 2000 and any future settlements are not expected to have a material impact on Missouri Mediacom Systems' financial condition or excess of revenues over direct expenses. Missouri Mediacom Systems have contingent liabilities related to legal proceedings and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Although it is reasonably possible Missouri Mediacom Systems may incur losses upon conclusion of such matters, an estimate of any loss or range of loss cannot be made. Missouri Mediacom Systems leases business offices, has entered into pole rental agreements and uses certain equipment under lease arrangements. Rental expense for such arrangements amounted to $305,000, $346,000, $87,000 and $389,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000, the period March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999, the period January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998, respectively. Future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases for each of the next five years are summarized as follows: (Amounts in December 31, Thousands) ------------ ----------- 2001.......................................................... $183 2002.......................................................... 170 2003.......................................................... 41 2004.......................................................... -- 2005.......................................................... -- Thereafter.................................................... -- It is expected that, in the normal course of business, expiring leases will be renewed or replaced by leases on other properties.

MISSOURI MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) 1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies On February 26, 2001, subsidiaries of AT&T Corp. ("AT&T") entered into an agreement with Mediacom Communications Corporation ("Mediacom") under which such subsidiaries agreed to sell certain cable television systems serving approximately 97,000 customers, as of March 31, 2001, located primarily in Missouri, and wholly owned by various cable subsidiaries and partnerships of AT&T, to Mediacom (the "Missouri Mediacom Systems" or the "Systems"). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited combined financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods presented by the Systems. The excess of revenue over direct expenses for any interim period is not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The unaudited combined financial statements and footnote disclosures should be read in conjunction with the audited combined financial statements and related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2000. The accompanying unaudited combined financial statements include the specific accounts directly related to the activities of the Missouri Mediacom Systems. All significant inter-system accounts and transactions have been eliminated in combination. The combined net assets of the Missouri Mediacom Systems are referred to as "Parent's Investment." On March 9, 1999, AT&T acquired AT&T Broadband, LLC ("AT&T Broadband", formerly known as Tele-Communications, Inc.) in a merger (the "AT&T Merger"). In the AT&T Merger, AT&T Broadband became a subsidiary of AT&T. For financial reporting purposes, the AT&T Merger was deemed to have occurred on March 1, 1999. Certain costs of AT&T Broadband are charged to the Systems based primarily on Missouri Mediacom Systems' number of customers (see Note 3). Although such allocations are not necessarily indicative of the costs that would have been incurred by the Missouri Mediacom Systems on a stand alone basis, management believes that the resulting allocated amounts are reasonable. The net assets of the Systems are held by various wholly-owned subsidiaries and partnerships of AT&T Broadband. Accordingly, the unaudited financial statements of Missouri Mediacom Systems do not reflect all of the assets and liabilities that would be indicative of a stand-alone business. The assets, liabilities, excess of revenue over direct expenses and cash flows of Missouri Mediacom Systems could differ from reported results had Missouri Mediacom Systems operated autonomously or as an entity independent of AT&T. In particular, Missouri Mediacom Systems does not constitute a taxable entity, and therefore, no provision has been made for income tax expense or benefit in the accompanying unaudited combined financial statements. In addition, no interest expense incurred by AT&T and its subsidiaries on their debt obligations has been allocated to Missouri Mediacom Systems. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of deposits with banks and financial institutions that are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use and have maturities of less than 90 days. AT&T performs cash management functions on behalf of AT&T Broadband, including the Missouri Mediacom Systems. Substantially all of the Systems' cash balances are swept to AT&T on a daily basis, where F-79
MISSOURI MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) (unaudited) they are managed and invested by AT&T. Transfers of cash to and from AT&T are reflected as a component of Parent's investment, with no interest income or expense reflected. Net transfers to or from AT&T are assumed to be settled in cash. AT&T's capital contributions for purchase business combinations to the Systems have been treated as non-cash transactions. Property and Equipment Property and equipment is stated at cost, including acquisition costs allocated to tangible assets acquired. Construction costs, labor and applicable overhead related to installations are capitalized. Interest capitalized was not significant for any periods presented. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis using estimated useful lives of 3 to 15 years for distribution systems and 3 to 40 years for support equipment and buildings. Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations, and renewals and additions are capitalized. At the time of ordinary retirements, sales or other dispositions of property, the original cost and cost of removal of such property are charged to accumulated depreciation, and salvage, if any, is credited thereto. Gains or losses are only recognized in connection with the sale of properties in their entirety. Intangible Assets Intangible assets consist primarily of franchise costs and intangibles for customer relationships. Franchise costs represent the difference between AT&T Broadband's allocated historical cost of acquired assets of Missouri Mediacom Systems and amounts allocated to the tangible assets. Franchise costs and customer relationships are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 and 10 years, respectively. Costs incurred by Missouri Mediacom Systems in negotiating and renewing franchise agreements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the average lives of the franchise, generally 10 to 20 years. Impairment of Long-lived Assets Management of the Systems periodically reviews the carrying amounts of property and equipment and its identifiable intangible assets to determine whether current events or circumstances warrant adjustments to such carrying amounts. If an impairment adjustment is deemed necessary, based on an analysis of undiscounted cash flows, such loss is measured by the amount that the carrying value of such assets exceeds the fair value. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of assets, accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from such estimates. Assets to be disposed of are carried at the lower of their financial statement carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Revenue Recognition Revenue for customer fees, equipment rental, advertising, pay-per-view programming and revenue sharing agreements is recognized in the period that services are delivered. Installation revenue is recognized in the period the installation services are provided to the extent of direct selling costs. Any remaining amount is deferred and recognized over the estimated average period that customers are expected to remain connected to the cable distribution system. Statement of Cash Flows Transactions effected through the intercompany account due to (from) parent have been considered constructive cash receipts and payments for purposes of the combined statement of cash flows.

MISSOURI MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) (unaudited) Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation is accounted for in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The Systems follow the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. Intangibles Intangibles are summarized as follows: March 31, ----------------------- 2001 2000 ----------- ----------- (Amounts in Thousands) Franchise costs................................... $ 242,053 $ 242,053 Other intangibles................................. 9,667 9,667 ----------- ----------- 251,720 251,720 Less accumulated amortization..................... 14,621 7,603 ----------- ----------- Intangibles, net.................................. $ 237,099 $ 244,117 =========== =========== Amortization expense on franchise costs was $1,513,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. Amortization expense for other intangibles was $241,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. 3. Parent's Investment Parent's investment in Missouri Mediacom Systems is summarized as follows: March 31, ----------------------- 2001 2000 ----------- ----------- (Amounts in Thousands) Transfers from parent, net....................... $ 287,723 $ 294,625 Cumulative excess of revenue over direct expenses since March 1, 1999............................. 8,544 4,073 ----------- ----------- $ 296,267 $ 298,698 =========== =========== The non-interest bearing transfers from parent includes AT&T Broadband's equity in acquired systems, programming charges, management fees and advances for operations, acquisitions and construction costs, as well as the amounts charged as a result of the allocation of certain costs from AT&T. As a result of AT&T Broadband's 100% ownership of Missouri Mediacom Systems, transfers from parent amounts have been classified as a component of Parent's investment in the accompanying combined balance sheets. F-81
MISSOURI MEDIACOM SYSTEMS (A combination of certain assets, as defined in Note 1) NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) (unaudited) Missouri Mediacom Systems purchases, at AT&T Broadband's cost, certain pay television and other programming through a certain indirect subsidiary of AT&T Broadband. Charges for such programming are included in operating expenses in the accompanying combined financial statements. Certain subsidiaries of AT&T Broadband provide administrative services to Missouri Mediacom Systems and assume managerial responsibility of Missouri Mediacom Systems' cable television system operations and construction. As compensation for these services, Missouri Mediacom Systems pay a monthly management fee calculated on a per-subscriber basis. The parent transfers and expense allocation activity consist of the following: Three months ended March 31, ------------------ 2001 2000 -------- -------- (Amounts in Thousands) Beginning of period.................................... $291,120 $296,836 Programming charges.................................. 4,043 3,381 Management fees...................................... 856 427 Cash transfers....................................... (8,296) (6,019) -------- -------- End of period.......................................... $287,723 $294,625 ======== ======== 4. Employee Benefit and Stock-Based Compensation Plans AT&T sponsors savings plans for the majority of its employees. The plan allows employees to contribute a portion of their pre-tax and/or after-tax income in accordance with specified guidelines. Employee contributions are matched up to certain limits. AT&T Broadband contributions for employees of Missouri Mediacom Systems amounted to $48,000 and $74,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Under AT&T's 1997 Long-term Incentive Program (the "Program"), which was amended March 14, 2000, AT&T grants stock options, performance shares, restricted stock and other awards on AT&T common stock as well as stock options on the AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock. Employees of Missouri Mediacom Systems were eligible to receive stock options under this plan effective with the AT&T Merger (see Note 1). Under the Program, there were 150 million shares of AT&T common stock available for grant with a maximum of 22.5 million common shares that could be used for awards other than stock options. Beginning with January 1, 2000, the remaining shares available for grant at December 31 of the prior year, plus 1.75% of the shares of AT&T common stock outstanding on January 1 of each year, become available for grant. There is a maximum of 37.5 million shares that may be used for awards other than stock options. The exercise price of any stock option is equal to the stock price when the option is granted. Generally, the options vest over three or four years and are exercisable up to 10 years from the date of grant. There were no stock option grants to the Systems' employees under this plan during the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. Under the AT&T 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan"), which was effective July 1, 1996, AT&T is authorized to sell up to 75 million shares of AT&T common stock to its eligible employees. Under the terms of the Plan, employees may have up to 10% of their earnings withheld to purchase AT&T's common stock. The purchase price of the stock on the date of exercise is 85% of the average high and low sale prices of shares on the New York Stock Exchange for that day. Employees of Missouri Mediacom Systems were eligible to participate in the Plan effective with the AT&T Merger (see Note 1). F-82

Missouri Mediacom Systems leases business offices, has entered into pole rental agreements and uses certain equipment under operating lease arrangements. Rental expense for such arrangements amounted to $52,000 and $68,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. It is expected that, in the normal course of business, expiring leases will be renewed or replaced by leases on other properties. F-83

EXHIBIT 99.2 ANNEX A MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF THE AT&T SYSTEMS The following "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the AT&T Systems" has been prepared by Mediacom Broadband LLC in connection with its concurrent offering of $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount of % senior notes due 2013. For purposes of this Annex A, "our manager" refers to Mediacom Communications Corporation and "we," "us" and "our" refers to Mediacom Broadband LLC. Introduction Mediacom Broadband LLC is a newly-formed, wholly-owned subsidiary of our manager, Mediacom Communications. On February 26, 2001, our manager entered into agreements with affiliates of AT&T Broadband, LLC that will allow our operating subsidiaries to acquire cable systems in Georgia, Illinois, Iowa and Missouri. The aggregate purchase price of the AT&T systems is approximately $2.2 billion in cash, or approximately $2,640 per basic subscriber, subject to closing adjustments. We expect to complete the AT&T acquisitions no later than the third quarter of 2001, subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of consents from applicable cable television franchising authorities. Pursuant to the terms of the indenture governing the notes, if all of the AT&T acquisitions are not closed prior to or concurrently with the issuance of the notes, the net proceeds of this offering, along with the additional amount necessary to fund the special mandatory redemption of the notes described in this offering memorandum, will be placed in an escrow account. If all of the AT&T acquisitions are not completed within 120 days from the issue date of the notes, the escrowed funds will be used to redeem all the notes at a redemption price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption. Upon the closing of the AT&T acquisitions, the escrowed funds will be released to pay a portion of the purchase price of the AT&T systems and related fees and expenses. The following discussion and analysis is based on the aggregation of the historical combined financial statements, and our review of the business and operations, of each of the AT&T systems. For the periods described in this offering memorandum, the AT&T systems have been operated as fully integrated businesses of AT&T Broadband. As such, the AT&T systems' historical combined financial statements have been derived from the financial statements and accounting records of AT&T Broadband and reflect significant assumptions and allocations. For example, parent transfers and expense allocations include programming costs, management fees, cable system acquisitions and cash transfers. We believe the AT&T systems' historical combined financial statements do not reflect many significant changes that will occur in the operations and funding of the AT&T systems as a result of our acquisitions of the AT&T systems. Furthermore, we believe the discussion and analysis of the AT&T systems' financial condition and combined results of operations set forth below are not indicative nor should they be relied upon as an indicator of our future performance. Certain Anticipated Effects of the Acquisitions Upon completion of the AT&T acquisitions, we expect to implement significant changes that may have a material impact on the operations and funding of the AT&T systems. The historical and pro forma results from operations discussed in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and under the heading "Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements" do not reflect certain cost savings that we believe we can achieve in the near future. For example, the historical combined direct costs and expenses of the AT&T systems were based on the cost structure existing under AT&T Broadband's ownership and management. However, upon completion of the AT&T acquisitions, certain costs and expenses will be different under our ownership and management. For example, our manager will replace AT&T Broadband as the manager of the AT&T systems, and AT&T Broadband will no longer be entitled to 1
receive management fees from the AT&T systems. For the year ended December 31, 2000 and the three months ended March 31, 2001, combined management fees for the AT&T systems represented 5.1% and 7.5%, respectively, of the AT&T systems' combined revenue. By comparison, for the same periods, our manager's corporate expenses represented 1.8% and 1.7%, respectively, of its revenues, and our manager charged management fees to its existing operating subsidiaries in an amount equal to the same percentages of its operating subsidiaries' aggregate revenues. Upon completion of the AT&T acquisitions, the number of our manager's basic subscribers served will more than double, and our manager believes that its corporate expenses will not increase by the same relative amount. As a result, our manager expects to reduce its corporate expenses to approximately 1.5% of its revenues. Our manager has advised us that it currently intends to charge management fees to our operating subsidiaries equal to 1.5% of our combined revenue. Adjusted EBITDA assumes that, upon completion of the AT&T acquisitions, the amount of the management fees charged by our manager for the periods presented would have been 1.5% of our combined revenue. Upon completion of the AT&T acquisitions, we believe that programming costs for the AT&T systems will initially increase by up to $7.8 million per annum as a result of volume discounts historically received by the AT&T systems that will not be available under our manager's existing arrangements with programming suppliers. However, we believe that we will be able to immediately achieve certain additional cost savings relating to plant operations, employee costs and billing expenses. We believe that these additional savings will substantially offset the increase to programming costs that we initially expect to incur. In addition, these cost savings do not include programming discounts our manager expects to negotiate as a result of the significant increase in the number of basic subscribers it will serve following the completion of the AT&T acquisitions. General Revenue. The AT&T systems' revenue is, and we expect our revenue to be, primarily attributable to monthly subscription fees charged to basic subscribers for our basic and premium cable television programming services. Basic revenue consists of monthly subscription fees for all services other than premium programming and high-speed data service and also includes monthly charges for customer equipment rental and installation fees. Premium revenue consists of monthly subscription fees for analog and digital programming provided on a per channel basis or as part of premium service packages. Other revenue represents pay-per-view charges, high-speed data revenue, late payment fees, advertising revenue and commissions related to the sale of goods by home shopping services. Pay-per-view is programming offered on a per program basis which a subscriber selects and pays a separate fee. Operating expenses. The AT&T systems' operating expenses consist of fees paid to programming suppliers, expenses related to copyright fees, wages and salaries of technical personnel and plant operating costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses directly attributable to the AT&T systems include wages and salaries for customer service and administrative personnel, franchise fees and expenses related to billing, marketing, bad debt, advertising sales and office administration. Management fees. Certain subsidiaries of AT&T Broadband provide administrative services to the AT&T systems and have managerial responsibility of their cable television systems' operations and construction. As compensation for these services, the AT&T systems pay a monthly management fee calculated on a per-subscriber basis. Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization relates primarily to the allocation of acquisition costs and from capital expenditures associated with the upgrade of the AT&T systems. Following our acquisition of the AT&T systems and as a result of our plan to continue to upgrade our network, we expect to report higher levels of depreciation and amortization than are reflected in the historical combined financial statements of the AT&T systems. 2
Interest expense. The AT&T systems are wholly-owned by affiliates of AT&T Broadband. As such, the AT&T systems have no material indebtedness and are not otherwise allocated any interest expense by AT&T Broadband. Upon consummation of the financings relating to the AT&T acquisitions, we will have a substantial amount of indebtedness. EBITDA. EBITDA represents excess (shortfall) of revenue over direct expenses before depreciation and amortization and restructuring charge. EBITDA: . is not intended to be a performance measure that should be regarded as an alternative either to operating income or net income as an indicator of operating performance or to the statement of cash flows as a measure of liquidity; . is not intended to represent funds available for debt service, dividends, reinvestment or other discretionary uses; and . should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. EBITDA is included in this offering memorandum because our management believes that EBITDA is a meaningful measure of performance commonly used in the cable television industry and by the investment community to analyze and compare cable television companies. Our definition of EBITDA may not be identical to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The table below sets forth for the periods indicated on a historical basis the percentage of the AT&T systems' total revenue attributable to the sources indicated and their EBITDA. Three Months Ended March 31, ---------------- Period from Period from January 1, March 1, Year Ended Through Through Year Ended December 31, February 28, December 31, December 31, 1998 1999 1999 2000 2000 2001 ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------- ------- Basic revenue........... 73.2% 72.1% 70.1% 67.4% 69.8% 67.3% Premium revenue......... 16.2 16.8 17.4 17.5 18.1 17.3 Other revenue........... 10.6 11.1 12.5 15.1 12.1 15.4 ----- ----- ----- ----- ------- ------- Total revenue........... 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% ===== ===== ===== ===== ======= ======= EBITDA margin........... 43.5% 38.4% 35.4% 35.0% 36.1% 28.9% Results of Operations On March 9, 1999, AT&T Corp. acquired AT&T Broadband, formerly known as Tele-Communications, Inc., in a merger (the "AT&T Merger"). In the AT&T Merger, AT&T Broadband became a subsidiary of AT&T. For financial reporting purposes, the AT&T Merger was deemed to have occurred on March 1, 1999. The combined financial statements for periods prior to March 1, 1999 include the systems that were then owned by Tele-Communications, Inc. Due to the application of purchase accounting in connection with the AT&T Merger, the predecessor combined financial statements are not comparable to the successor combined financial statements. The following discussion and analysis is based on the aggregation of the historical combined financial statements of the AT&T systems. Three Months Ended March 31, 2001 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2000 Revenue. Revenue increased 8.3% to $112.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001, as compared to $104.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000, principally as a result of: . an increase in the average monthly basic service rate charged to subscribers; . a growth of cable modem customers; and . an increase in pay-per-view and advertising sales revenue. 3
Operating expenses. Operating expenses increased 16.8% to $61.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001, as compared to $52.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000. The increase was due principally to higher programming and cable modem service costs. Programming costs increased due to a combination of higher programming rates and additional programming offerings to customers served. Cable modem service costs increased due primarily to an increase in the number of cable modem customers. As a percentage of revenue, operating expenses were 54.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2001, as compared to 50.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2000. Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 6.5% to $10.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001, as compared to $9.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses were 8.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2001, as compared to 9.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2000. Management fees. Management fees increased 93.1% to $8.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001, as compared to $4.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000. This increase was due to higher management fees charged by the manager of the AT&T systems on a per subscriber basis. Restructuring charge. Restructuring charge was $570,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001. Restructuring charge was part of a cost reduction plan undertaken by AT&T Broadband in 2001, whereby certain employees of the Georgia systems were terminated resulting in a one-time charge. Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization associated with the AT&T systems increased 19.9% to $38.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001, as compared to $32.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000. This increase was substantially due to capital expenditures associated with the upgrade of the AT&T systems and the final purchase price allocation in connection with the AT&T Merger. Excess (shortfall) of revenue over direct expenses. Due to the factors described above, the AT&T systems generated shortfall of revenue over direct expenses of $6.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001, as compared to excess of revenue over direct expenses of $5.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000. EBITDA. EBITDA decreased 13.2% to $32.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001, as compared to $37.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000. This decrease was substantially due to the increases in programming costs, cable modem service costs and management fees as noted above. Year Ended December 31, 2000 Compared to the Period from March 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999 Revenue. Revenue increased to $439.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, as compared to $336.6 million for the period from March 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999. The increase was principally a result of: . the year ended December 31, 2000 including 12 months of operating results versus 10 months of operating results for the period from March 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999; . an increase in the average monthly basic service rate charged to subscribers; and . a growth in cable modem customers. Operating expenses. Operating expenses increased to $223.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, as compared to $168.6 million for the period from March 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999. The increase was principally due to the year ended December 31, 2000 including 12 months of operating results 4
versus 10 months of operating results for the period from March 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999 and increases in programming and cable modem service costs. As a percentage of revenue, operating expenses were 50.9% in 2000, as compared to 50.1% for the period from March 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999. Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $39.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, as compared to $35.5 million for the period from March 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999. The increase was principally due to the year ended December 31, 2000 including 12 months of operating results versus 10 months of operating results for the period from March 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses were 9.1% in 2000, as compared to 10.5% for the period from March 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999. Management fees. Management fees increased to $22.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, as compared to $13.4 million for the period from March 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999. The increase was due to the year ended December 31, 2000 including 12 months of operating results versus 10 months of operating results for the period from March 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999 and higher management fees charged by the manager of the AT&T systems on a per subscriber basis for the year ended December 31, 2000. Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization associated with the AT&T systems increased to $137.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, as compared to $90.2 million for the period from March 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999. The increase was principally due to the capital expenditures associated with the upgrade of the AT&T systems and the year ended December 31, 2000 including 12 months of operating results versus 10 months of operating results for the period from March 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999. Excess (shortfall) of revenue over direct expenses. Due to the factors described above, the AT&T systems generated excess of revenue over direct expenses of $16.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, as compared to excess of revenue over direct expenses of $28.9 million for the period from March 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999. EBITDA. EBITDA increased to $153.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, as compared to $119.1 million for the period from March 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999. This increase was substantially due to the year ended December 31, 2000 including 12 months of operating results versus 10 months of operating results for the period from March 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999, the increase in the average monthly basic service rate charged to basic subscribers and the growth in cable modem customers. Period from January 1, 1999 to February 28, 1999 Revenue. Revenue was $63.3 million for the two months ended February 28, 1999. Operating expenses. Operating expenses were $31.5 million for the two months ended February 28, 1999. As a percentage of revenue, operating expenses were 49.7% of revenue for this period.

Due to the factors described above, excess of revenue over direct expenses was $96.3 million for the year period ended December 31, 1998. Liquidity and Capital Resources The cable television business has substantial ongoing capital requirements for the construction, expansion and maintenance of plant. Expenditures are primarily made to rebuild and upgrade existing plant and to consolidate headends. We also anticipate spending capital on plant extensions, new services, converters and system maintenance. Investing Activities. As part of our commitment to maximize customer satisfaction, to improve our competitive position and to introduce new and advanced broadband products and services to our customers, we plan to make significant investments to upgrade our cable network. The objectives of our cable network upgrade program are to: . increase the bandwidth capacity of our cable network to 870MHz; . further expand our cable network's two-way communications capability; . consolidate our headends through the extensive deployment of fiber-optic networks; and . allow us to provide digital cable television, high-speed Internet access, interactive video and other telecommunications services. As of March 31, 2001, approximately 50% of the AT&T systems' cable network was upgraded to 550MHz to 870MHz bandwidth capacity and approximately 46% of the homes passed were activated with two-way communications capability. Upon completion of our cable network upgrade program, we expect that 100% of the AT&T systems' cable network will be upgraded to 550MHz to 870MHz bandwidth capacity with two-way communications capability. Additionally, we expect that the number of headends serving the AT&T systems will be reduced from 162 to 18, increasing the average number of basic subscribers per headend from approximately 5,200 to approximately 47,000. We anticipate that our cable network upgrade program for the AT&T systems will be substantially completed by December 2003. We expect to spend approximately $50 million in 2001 subsequent to the completion of the AT&T acquisitions and approximately $150 million and $145 million in 2002 and 2003, respectively, to fund our capital expenditures for the AT&T systems, including our cable network upgrade program and network maintenance. We plan to fund these expenditures through net cash flows from operations and additional borrowings under our subsidiary credit facility. 6
Financing Activities. We expect to finance the aggregate purchase price of the AT&T systems of approximately $2.2 billion, together with related fees and expenses and working capital, through a combination of: . borrowings under our subsidiary credit facility; . proceeds from the concurrent offerings by Mediacom Communications of its Class A common stock and convertible notes and borrowings under its existing subsidiary credit facilities; . a preferred equity investment by Mediacom Communications and/or one or more of its direct or indirect subsidiaries; and . the gross proceeds from the issuance of the notes offered hereby. The table below sets forth the estimated sources and uses of funds in connection with the AT&T acquisitions, assuming that all of the AT&T acquisitions and the financing transactions are completed. Amount -------------- Sources of Funds: (in thousands) Subsidiary credit facility: Revolving credit facility................................... $ 275,000 Tranche A term loan facility................................ 300,000 Tranche B term loan facility................................ 400,000 From Mediacom Communications(a)............................... 800,000 Preferred equity investment................................... 100,000 Notes offered hereby.......................................... 400,000 ---------- Total sources............................................. $2,275,000 ========== Uses of Funds: Acquisitions of the AT&T systems: Iowa........................................................ $1,450,000 Missouri.................................................... 320,000 Georgia..................................................... 310,000 Illinois.................................................... 135,000 Working capital............................................... 5,000 Estimated fees and expenses................................... 55,000 ---------- Total uses.............................................. $2,275,000 ========== - --------------------- (a) Consists of (i) $600.0 million of gross proceeds from the concurrent offerings by Mediacom Communications of Class A common stock and convertible notes and (ii) $200.0 million to be borrowed under our manager's existing subsidiary credit facilities. Includes estimated underwriting commissions and other fees and expenses incurred by Mediacom Communications of $26.6 million. The remaining $773.4 million will be contributed to the common equity of Mediacom Broadband LLC. We expect that our subsidiary credit facility will be a $1.3 billion credit facility, consisting of a $600.0 million revolving credit facility, a $300.0 million tranche A term loan and a $400.0 million tranche B term loan. We expect that our subsidiaries will borrow $275.0 million under the revolving credit facility to fund a portion of the purchase price of the AT&T systems, and in such case will have approximately $325.0 million of unused credit commitments under the revolving credit facility. We expect that commitments under the revolving credit facility will be reduced in quarterly installments commencing on December 31, 2004 and that the revolving credit facility will expire on March 31, 2010. Our subsidiaries will be able to prepay revolving credit loans and reborrow any amounts that are repaid, up to the amount of the revolving credit commitment then in effect, subject to customary conditions. 7
The borrowings under our operating subsidiaries' tranche A and tranche B term loans are expected to mature on March 31 and September 30, 2010, respectively. These term loans are expected to be payable in quarterly installments commencing on September 30, 2004. For the fiscal years 2004, 2005 and 2006, we expect that our scheduled repayment obligations under the term loans will equal $8.0 million, $34.0 million and $41.5 million, respectively. We are a holding company with no source of operating income. We are therefore dependent on our capital raising abilities and distributions from our operating subsidiaries to meet our obligations. We expect that our subsidiary credit facility will permit our operating subsidiaries to make distributions to us but prohibit such distributions upon the occurrence of certain events of default under the subsidiary credit facility. We believe that the cash generated from operations and borrowings expected to be available under our subsidiary credit facility will be sufficient to meet our debt service, capital expenditures and working capital requirements for the foreseeable future. We may require additional financing if our plans materially change in an adverse manner or prove to be materially inaccurate. There can be no assurance that such financing, if permitted under the terms of our debt agreements, will be available on terms acceptable to us or at all. Recent Pronouncements In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 (SAB No. 101), "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." Application of the accounting and disclosures described in SAB No. 101 was required no later than the fourth quarter of 2000. We believe the AT&T systems are currently in compliance with the provisions of SAB No. 101. Further, we believe the adoption of SAB No. 101 did not have an impact on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the AT&T systems. Inflation and Changing Prices Our systems' costs and expenses will be subject to inflation and price fluctuations. Since changes in costs can be passed through to subscribers, such changes are not expected to have a material effect on our results of operations. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk We will be exposed to some market risk due to the floating interest rate under our subsidiary credit facility. The subsidiary credit facility will have interest payments based on a floating rate (a base rate or LIBOR, at our option) plus a variable amount based on operating results. Three month LIBOR at May 31, 2001 was 3.99%. A 1.0% increase in LIBOR would result in a $9.75 million pro forma annual increase in interest expense. We expect any new financing arrangements to expose us to similar risks. Changes in economic conditions could result in higher interest rates, thereby increasing our interest expense and lease payments and reducing our funds available for capital investment, operations or other purposes. In addition, a substantial portion of our cash flow must be used to service our debt, which may affect our ability to make future acquisitions or capital expenditures. We may from time to time use interest rate protection agreements to minimize our exposure to interest rate fluctuation. However, there can be no assurance that hedges will be implemented, or if implemented will achieve the desired effect. We may experience economic loss and a negative impact on earnings or net assets as a result of interest rate fluctuations. 8
