Charter Communications, Inc., and Charter Communications Holdings, LLC, the registrants' indirect parent companies (the "Companies"), are completing their reaudit of their financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001 and their ongoing audit of their financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002. Because these audits of the Company's financial statements for these years will be required to complete the registrants' report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002, the registrants require additional time to finalize their financial statements and the related disclosures necessary to file their 2002 report on Form 10-K.
